The Masks We Wear
Oct 24, 2025

Nick and Tim reflect on summer adventures and the value of stepping into new places and cultures. From Nick’s first sauna and cold plunge to the subtle art of wearing different masks in the workplace, they explore how experiences shape perspective. Along the way, they dive into the role of opinion in leadership and how to steer the ship through uncertainty. The episode wraps up with a tangent on AI “slop” — and how some teams are finding genuinely smart ways to co-design with AI agents.

The Revenge of Taste (Pilot Episode)
Aug 27, 2025

Nick and Tim explore the role of taste in design, fashion, and culture—from quiet menswear and scattered digital inspiration boards to whether AI can ever develop an aesthetic sense. Along the way, they swap life updates, talk about new creative projects (including Hot100.ai), and debate a provocative idea: should social media have closing hours, like a library at 8PM?
