I love the energy of these two!
So I’m literally listening back to all the episodes to express how much I miss your laugh !
PLEASE COME BACK GUYS ! DONT LET US(me) DOWN
...stay for the singing. I’m a design executive at a Fortune 100 company (I’m not kidding), and this podcast reminds me that grownup adult businessy type people can have fun and be silly. Thank you for thawing my cold, dead heart.
I found you and found this podcast two days ago and find that the season one ended! It is my favorite podcast talking about design and product ever. Wish you guys can have a good break and back soon.🎊🎊😍😍😍❤️🎈🥰🎈
Hilarious design adjacent podcast filled with wit and wisdom from industry veterans.
But while Jake and Jonathan are a great pair the same cannot be said of their respective fan bases.
Online and off Team Jonathan are trolls looking for trouble — a polar opposite to the serene and self assured members of Team Jake.
But this is news to no one. What more can we expect from Berlin-based klugscheissers who don’t know a hamburger menu from a hamburger?

Long time listener, ever since the PB days! 🥣
Sometimes, especially during COVID, it’s easy to get a little jaded about the world and find things you’re normally super passionate about not be as exciting. Hearing two buds just having a good time hanging out and also sharing silly little nuggets of industry news has been good for my soul.
It somehow helps me see the world and also my own work through a brighter lens!
Highly recommend to anyone interested in having a laugh while maybe also l... more
Long time listener (actually, just a few months). Have no idea what they talk about sometimes but I busted a gut laughing at Jonathan sing out of this episode. Deserves all the stars.
This is an awesome series, whether your just getting your start or have been working for a number of years in the design industry there are many lessons to learn from Jake and Jonathan’s failures and successes.
Me encanta que sean disruptores y hablen de lo que se les ocurra, sin importales nada!! Bravooo!! Amazing!
Love the mix of deep thoughts and light humor Making me laugh during Covid. Thx
Jake and Jonathan, brightens up every single monday! I started listening to the product breakfast club because i thought this was going to be a good producty podcast, boy was I wrong!!! If you want rambling, akward humour, opinions on Gandalf with some super insightfull product related content on the side, give this podcast a listen!! I cant picture mondays without these cats. The invision podcast is probably better.... lol.... or not! keep on going guys!!! Love you!
If you have a bad case of FOMO: Don’t listen with full hands. You may need to Google a Book, Podcast, or Website recommendation at any minute.
You have been warned. Bye.
I really like the podcast but wish they did more talks with cool designers as they haven’t had a guest in months. I’m not too interested in Star Wars. 🤖 Come on guys get more designers/cool guys on the show
🐌🚀😽
I’ve just listened to the last episode (144) which Jake interviews Sarah Cooper and I think you should keep Jonathan out, as this is the BEST episode so far - by miles and miles of distance. (😂 It’s a joke, more or less)
Thanks for the podcast.
I know a lot of people said that, by it’s really ACTUALLY much nicer to relax while listening to informal rumblings about life with some real gold bars of insight in between than to to boring, formal, politcorrect crap that feels like a class in college or something (Yeah, hate that InVision podcast 😅).
You are in my top 3 podcasts, and I actually listen to 25 regularly. :0
Also, loved the #buysprint :)
