Advanced Prompting: From Search Bar to Thinking Partner
In Episode 5 of The Morning Prompt, Kyle and Will move beyond basic prompts and break down the real skill behind better AI outcomes: context.Using a real-world example, Kyle walks through how he built a context file to research and create a 12-week LinkedIn content plan, without losing his voice, perspective, or expertise.Instead of typing one long prompt and hoping for magic, they explore how to:• Build a structured context file• Define your role, audience, scope, and constraints• Stress-test your thinking with subject-matter “panels”• Use transcripts and interviews to deepen AI knowledge• Choose the right file format (Markdown vs Word vs PDF)• Stay human-in-the-loop to avoid “work slop”The key lesson?AI works best when you think before you prompt.Advanced prompting isn’t about tricks. It’s about clarity, iteration, and ownership.When you do it right, AI stops acting like a search bar and starts working like a thinking partner.Sip your coffee.

Prompting That Works: How to Think With AI
In Episode 3 of The Morning Prompt, Kyle and Will dig into one of the most misunderstood parts of AI: prompting.This episode isn’t about memorizing clever phrases or copying templates. It’s about learning to think with AI — refining your ideas, providing better context, and treating the tool as a thinking partner rather than a vending machine.Kyle shares how experimenting with prompts dramatically improved the quality of his results, while Will breaks down a simple framework anyone can use to get clearer, more useful outcomes. They explore why prompting is really about problem framing, why refining beats restarting, and how speaking your prompt out loud — using voice mode — unlocks better thinking altogether.Whether you’re brand new to AI or already using it daily, this episode helps you move from frustration to confidence by showing how better questions lead to better answers.This episode covers:00:00 - Welcome00:26 - What’s Brewing?6:17 - The Deep Pour12:21 - Our Sponsor (Guest Surprise)13:04 - The Deep Pour, continued19:07 - Something to Sip On20:32 - Tune into the Next Episode (AI Agents)A great starting point for listeners who want clarity, confidence, and a real-world map of what’s out there.
