I wish you guys did this more often and doesn't have to be just about life hacks, I would listen to a podcast about what you guys think about life, tech, business, news etc.
-
I gotta say I love these "hack" episodes! I feel like I'm hanging with old friends, and find myself laughing out loud in the room by myself. Aaaaand...learning some banger hacks!
-
Chris, you’re killing it. Thanks for the high level conversation.
-
The boys are back the boys are back
-
A very vulnerable and honest episode with which you can identify, but also very pragmatic with the hacks, a lot of that you can take with you. Thanks!!
-
the amazon halo is a wearable that has great sleep metrics!!
-
Sandwiches are one of life's greatest pleasures :).
-
Inbox zero is one of the coolest concepts in the world to me. I know it's simple but I love digital minimalism
-
Some travel footage would be good to see while your away Chris. Great work 🙏💪
-
When you're on one of those important calls that are recorded, you can ask for the call log number, make a note of it, and you have a record of the call
-
Rogannnnnnnn it’s happening
-
I would never tell anyone I was negotiating a deal with what my budget was. Just because someone asks a question doesn’t mean you have to — or should — answer it.
-
The plug count doesnt matter so much, the wattage use does. Having several low draw connections will use far less wattage than a single microwave or electric heater.

McDonald's nugget sizes in no particular order 6, 9, 4, 20

Chris you mention “Kin” as one to watch - looks absolutely amazing but has anyone got any insight on how we can watch in the UK? Looks like AMC+ have the show rights… might be one for surf shark VPN?
-
25:50.... take the lid off... go on the inside of the lid, then slide it off the poo plate into the cistern.. Amateurs 🙄
-
boots sandwhiches forever
-
low calorie ice cream? better no ice cream at all.
