I also managed to see most of the films coming out this year I was interested, and the majority of those at the theater. Podcasts took a down turn towards the end of the year, however. I think that was mostly due to audio fatigue/overload since over 90% of the books I read were audiobooks, but also because a couple of my favorites either ended or changed personnel, causing me to lose interest.
I think I'll streamline the list a bit for 2014. Partly because I'm working again (I doubt I'll manage as many books this year), and also because my habits are evolving a bit (where did those podcasts go?)
