the Michael Hobbes podcast universe -Maintenance Phase: everything all the idiots in the world say about weight or weight loss or health, deconstructed to the realities of science #methodologyqueen -If Books Could Kill: every book the most annoying person in your life has recommended, torn apart brutally and exactly #methodologyqueen extended MH universe -5-4: the supreme court sucks, let’s talk about it and giggle -In Bed With The Right: great convos on feminism and sexuality theory and how they’re being used by the far right, as well as digging into historical philosophical context cyber true crime -Darknet Diaries: interviews about wild cyber crime stories, very deep dives -Hacked: more playful latest cyber news, easy entry point and entertaining -ReplyAll: not just cyber crime, just everything internet. a hall of famer in the world of podcasts, has since died but if you haven’t listened i‘m jealous that you still get to experience it for the first time goss -Normal Gossip: i’m obsessed with other people’s gossip esp when I don’t know a soul involved. this is the most perfectly produced way to do it, i’m gasping from shock and awe anytime this is on -Petty Crimes: because Normal Gossip is so well produced and they have gorgeous boundaries, there aren’t nearly enough episodes. this is a more coastal elite millennial take on other people’s gossip and very silly -Heavyweight: another gimlet studios creation that might be dead? it’s like Serial but for the most mundane personal stories that makes me cry nearly every episode wildcard -I Will Teach You To Be Rich: insane branding but stay with me, you get to listen to real couples talk about their actual finances. Ramit is surprisingly intersectional in how he views people’s attitudes about money, you wouldn’t get the vibe from his general demeanor but it’s frequently nuanced takes. his book that the podcast is named for is a tough read bc he has a very brash “guy with a podcast and internet course for sell” vibe to him but he is genuinely the only ‘financial advice guru’ that I trust and listening to his more recent episodes you can tell he has a firm understanding of societal factors that lead to financial hardship. whenever i’m up to date on this one I can feel myself making smarter money decisions (sorry long description I do feel like he requires a lot of prefacing lol)

how long gone

the prompt said "favorite podcast as of late" and this is, without a doubt, my favorite podcast. my number one most listened to on spotify wrapped for the last 2-3 years. these two dudes know what's what! sometimes it gets a little too dude-y and the takes can get a little "for the plot" (hey, gotta keep listenership!) but generally chris and jason's takes on culture are incredibly based. i also discover so many new artists/authors/editors/cool people.

Brooklyn pi.fyi meetup — success

florinegrassenhopper riotgrrrl brendanooooo slowdazzle buck_mcgraw and indianjones — we did it. Not only did we successfully meet for drinks, but we also schemed the hostile takeover of this app from tyler tonight. In all seriousness — weird that an app I downloaded in April would make genuinely want to drive back into Brooklyn during end of day traffic for a happy hour. Great app filled with great people.

very appreciative of all you on this app

I feel like there’s a special connectivity on this app that I haven’t felt in a long time, maybe since early 2010’s tumblr. The fact that you can’t promote yourself like IG is wonderful. The fact that there isn’t mass video content like Tik Tok is great. It’s not this monetized / paid sponsorship app. People are here because they want to be a part of something with nothing to gain besides friendship. Seeing the URL -> IRL meetups warms my heart so much (waiting for an NYC or Brooklyn meetup). Thanks for your participation on this niche little app. I smile reading all the recs and all the comments and all the asks. Hope we’ll all be here for a long time.

Just appreciating your pi.fyi feed

I think a life rule for me is to surround myself with people who know more / are smarter / are cooler than me and just absorb their aura by listening / observing them. It’s made me the incredibly smart / cool person you all know and love. I just never thought I’d feel the same way about URL friends. I’m constantly listening to the songs I see posted here, reading the articles, subbing to newsletters, and googling topics that get tossed onto the feed. It’s nice to know you can become a more rounded person by just absorbing what your mutuals post on here. I’m going to sit on my couch, have a cocktail and digest my lovely feed. Happy Sunday!
