121: Travelling Confidence

Myke talks to Ben Thompson about how he writes Stratechery, from deciding what is worth covering to working to a deadline every night, and the workflows he has built to produce one of tech’s most influential publications. 

Myke talks to Lucy James about going independent after 12 years at GameSpot, building a newsletter that recommends the best indie games, and announcing it days later on stage at Summer Game Fest in front of millions of viewers. 

Jason reviews the new iPad Pro, Myke reviews the new 24-inch iMac, and the future of Apple silicon might be coming into focus. 

This week Myke and Jason discuss the etiquette of digital gifts, compare how they use their iOS devices compared to their Macs, and decide on a collective name for listeners of the show. 

Jason and Myke get a little help in discussing Apple's 'Spring Forward' event, including the new MacBook, HBO on Apple TV, and more on the Apple Watch. 

David is launching a scholarship program with the Productivity Field Guide, Stephen bought a new e-reader, and they both have spent some time in their Inboxes to bring feedback to the show this week.
