It’s time for lists, and Peter and Scott have them! Who’s been naughty? Who’s been nice? Who drinks coffee poured over fried rice??!! Ugh, no one, that’s who. That sounds disgusting.

Did you know you can call ChatGPT from a phone booth on main? Neither did Peter and Scott, until now! iPhones, Superman, old calculators, and post-intelligent USA, it’s all here (or should I say hear? It is a podcast, after all).

It’s all about traveling - tech precautions and travel routers! Also some Mac migration woes with zero traveling whatsoever.

Peter has the best beer in the universe, Scott has a coffee that exists in the universe, and Peter is ridiculously excited about a coffee mug warmer. AirPods Pro continue to be a buggy product in Apple’s lineup, Peter wishes he’d given life coaching advice to a stranger, Scott and Peter argue about notes applications for work and personal use, and FINALLY: Scott reveals the true identity of Monolith 3000.

Now playing, Peter’s European Vacation! Scott and Peter believe in Covid and flu shots, Peter begs listeners for some helpful feedback, AirTags do things, and caffeine withdrawal is a thing.

The Germans don’t want to talk about their Oktober Fest-Märzen, the Drink Coffee Do Stuff guys don’t want to talk about their Olympic blend, and Peter is about to vacation in Germany. But first… Peter’s FULL REVIEW of applying for Greek citizenship vs. applying for German citizenship.

Peter is Perplexity’d, Overcast is updated (and Scott likes it, so HA!), MKBHD does NOT make YouTube face, and 7-Eleven and Peter’s Vermont house are both getting makeovers.

Peter has a history of living in dungeons full of dragons, Home Depot has a history of screwing up expensive orders, Scott has a history of fighting with Audio Hijack, and both hosts have a history of drinking coffee on this podcast.

Peter and Scott start off on a roll until Scott has to inform Peter about who exactly Andrew Huberman really is, but it’s all uphill from there. Until the conversation about disinformation and gullibility. But there’s browsers, computer setups, and Furiosa!

Peter is back, and this is good news for Scott! This time Peter is not AI, but for some reason he and Scott talk nonstop about AI anyway. Tools, workflows, valid concerns vs. boogeyman concerns. Also blueberry poison.

It's Scott, Neter, and Lonnie! Here they talk about WWDC 2024 and all the wonderful things both real and artificial announced by Apple this year. We have all the lukewarm takes to go with our lukewarm beverages!

It’s a wonderful coffee day! Peter and Scott ponder the enbleepification of things, heaters dying, loans that refuse to be born, rotators with cuffs, Wi-Fi with the number 6, and some things they’re watching.

Ronnie can’t drink tannins but doesn’t know why, Scott and Ronnie used to podcast together but don’t know why, Ronnie and Scott had iPads Pro and don’t know why, because now they’re fully back on Mac laptops (and they do know why).

Peter has a Tempest (mic), Scott has a Bochi Bochi (beer), 3 bodies are a problem, technology is good but annoying, but Godzilla X Kong and Tonkatsu sandwiches are good and not annoying.

Peter and Scott decaffeinate themselves, but not intentionally at first. Software quality is declining, Scott and Peter’s bodies are declining, and Notion and AI continue to be products in the lineup of tools they both use.

Peter’s got the healing meniscus, Scott almost stole a dog, Linus Torvalds hates everything, and ChatGPT CLEARLY hates Linus.

Peter hates it when Lego are lonely. Dogs aren’t people (but they should be), and Scott tries some AI software tools. Peter reviews Ted Lasso, a show with all the feels. Scott really wants to find the ultimate notes app for documentation, while Peter just misses the time when Evernote was a trustworthy company.

Is Peter’s meniscus too large? His surgeon seems to think so. World champion coffee is a thing, and Peter owned a coffee shop, once. Scott doesn’t like lizard brain or excessive masculinity, and neither Peter nor Scott have any desire to buy an Apple Vision Pro.

Houses are a nightmare, but weekending in Vermont is worth it. Scott drinks less, Peter’s knee hurts more, and they both remember Chicago. The font, that is. Keyboards, trackpads, mice, detectives, vampires, and the Post Office – it’s all here!

New Year’s was had by all, Peter loves New Orleans and hates Sonos line-in, Scott loves Cheese & Crack snack shop, and they both love the apps of ATP and some stupid TV shows.
