#110 – Automating Docs and Playing with New Tools

We’re back with a full plate: broken email, fixed automations, and a few new toys on the desk. Michael walks through how he’s rebuilding a Google Sheets to Word workflow to handle Zoom links, Clubhouse flags, and ACB Media stream details. Plus, some Word macros are now baked right into the default template—finally. Damashe shares updates on spinning up a streaming server with AWS, possibly tying it into Audio Hijack, and revisiting automation tools like Bunch and Keyboard Maestro. We also dive into Joplin for cross-platform note-taking, prompt storage, and maybe even shared show notes down the road.
