This is a phenomenal podcast, what a joy to listen to you guys! The tips are great. Supercharging my thesis writing lately 🙃
I’m slowly working through the back catalogue as I’ve been listening for about a year. Every episode is so interesting and insightful! I love that Chris and Arden co-host; it gives it more depth than the usual “2 guys talk productivity” format. I also love how thoughtful and reflective they both are, and how they come at productivity from slightly different places. Highly recommended!

I rarely stick with a podcast, listening to every episode, but this podcast is dynamite! I’ve learned so many good tips for productivity, and y’all are so much fun! I would love to know what enneagram personalities you both are! Your personalities are so opposite but work so well together!

Each device has a specific use case. The mini for reading and sometimes YouTube. The iPad Pro is my only personal “computer”. And the phone is for texting and calling, sometimes maps, and podcasts with CarPlay. No social media, no email, almost no notifications. I’ve thought about a “dumb” phone a few times, but try... more
