🎙️ The first half of Connected this week had me giggling like an idiot. One of the highlights of every week. (Out of respect for @ismh@eworld.social’s strong feelings, this will not be cross posted to Threads 😝)
You’ve got to listen to the conversation in this Vergecast episode with Spotify’s Gustav Söderström. I’m an Apple Music guy myself, but I sure like his ideas around AI-facilitated recommendations. He’s clear-eyed about the challenges that entails, and focused on finding us our next favorite music. 🎙️
🎙️ ‘Norah Jones is Playing Along’ with Dave Grohl
This warm and wide-ranging episode gives an intimate peek into the mind of one of modern rock’s most beloved legends.
I’m a Norah Jones fan, but have never been into the Foo Fighters. That said, this session with Dave Grohl was one of the best listening experiences I’ve had in ages. It was like eavesdropping in on two friends just hanging out chatting and occasionally jamming out a song — they just so happen to be world-class musicians and performers. Got an hour that needs some background listening? Do yourself a favor and throw this on.
🎙️ Holy smokes, great tip @viticci@macstories.net! Our PS5 has been plugged into Ethernet for…3+ years and I never knew it was falling back to Wi-Fi. 60 seconds to go through the settings and set up the wired connection and now it’s getting 6x the download speed! Sony should revisit that default.
🎙️ Legacy Series: Yvon Chouinard, Founder of Patagonia, Muses About His Early Days of Climbing

There’s something to @danielpunkass@mastodon.social’s framing here on @coreint. Maybe Musk did those of us who used to like Twitter a favor here… 🎙️ overcast.fm/+KxFFPJjw…
Wow, I hadn’t even considered real-time ad generation for each individual internet surfer before. The internet ad network is about to get even more weird and creepy. dithering.fm 🎙️
🎙️ It’s shit like this that makes @connected@relayfm.social the most consistently great (ostensibly tech?) podcast on the web. The japes are unreal. 🤣 Keep it up, boys. 🙌 www.relay.fm/connected…
