Glenn Hansard and the Life I'm Not Living
A heads up that this one is a little raw. I’m ok with it being out there, but it’s not how I necessarily feel today. It was in response to the news of Glen Hansard’s death, and the questions it prompted in me about my own life. Glenn Hansard's death stopped me cold, not because of the Oscar or…

My Podcast Has No Point and That's Fine
Someone on Threads asked me what my podcast was about, and I genuinely didn't have a clean answer. There's no pitch, no audience hook, no reason a stranger should subscribe unless they already know me. I told them exactly that. The downside of treating a creative project casually is that it never...

Stop Stressing About Video Podcasts
Podcasters with 5,000 downloads, 100 downloads, or in the case of this show, roughly five downloads, are suddenly worried they need video or their show will become irrelevant. The video-versus-audio debate is real at the scale where shows have hundreds of thousands of listeners and ad revenue to...

In (Limited) Praise of the Algorithm
Algorithms get a bad reputation, mostly for good reason. But posting about Widow's Bay on Mastodon and Bluesky and getting almost total silence made me think more carefully about what algorithms are actually bad at versus what they're quietly good at. Those platforms are built around who you...

Podcasting Into the Void
Podcasting gets none of the algorithmic help that TikTok or Instagram Reels give you. When you drop an episode into a feed, there's no machine surfacing it to people who don't already know you exist. I've been sitting with that reality on my morning walks lately, and the honest answer is: the...

You Are Not Forgotten or Expendable
A friend posted to a private list feeling forgotten, expendable, not interesting or important enough. I read it and felt it immediately, because I know that feeling from the inside. The gap between what you know and what you feel is what makes it so hard. I can run through the list of people who...

Widow's Bay Is Worth the Scares
Widow's Bay on Apple TV+ sits in a strange and comfortable place between horror and comedy, leaning hard into the horror while using comedy as seasoning rather than the main course. Unlike Shaun of the Dead, where the jokes are front and center and the horror serves as backdrop, Widow's Bay…

I Want More Whimsy Online in 2026
My theme for 2026 is simple: more whimsy. More silliness, more lighthearted experiences that don't need to justify themselves with monetization, user growth, tokens, or AI slop. Just fun for its own sake. Roost is the app that crystallized this for me. It's a social messaging app where your...

Threads Feels Like Twitter Used To
A post about the Survivor finale sparked a real back-and-forth with Eliza, a former contestant, and pulled a whole pocket of Survivor fans into the thread. That kind of spontaneous, cross-cultural collision is exactly what made early Twitter worth checking, and it's what Threads is quietly...

Aubrey Deserved the Survivor 50 Win
Aubrey won Survivor 50, and of the three people sitting at final tribal council, she earned it by doing something the other two didn't: she told a story. Joe and Jonathan rattled off moves and challenge wins like a résumé. Aubrey connected the dots, made it personal, and gave the jury something…

Detail Is Worth Adding to Your Workflow
Detail is an iOS app for recording multi-camera video on your phone, and it does more than most people expect. You can run the front and back cameras simultaneously, bring in other participants on their own iPhones or iPads, and record podcast interviews whether everyone's in the room or…

Trying Out Subwave for the First Time
In this first post on Subwave, I explore what the platform appears to be and why it caught my attention. Subwave comes from the team behind Detail, the iOS video and audio editing app, and represents their move into social media and podcast creation. The platform blends content creation tools…
