One hundred episodes. For this occasion, years in the coming, Lyle and I talk about the thing itself — the nuts and bolts of the podcast, including how the robots now do an alarming amount of the work, what a hundred episodes taught us, and why we use the “The One About…” naming convention.
🎁: the show has a home at importantthing.show. Deep-link a favorite or just scroll through a hundred episodes of history.
Stuff that came up:
- Riverside, where we record the show
- Rands Leadership Slack, now staffed by a helpful jobs robot named Floyd
- Planetfall, the Infocom classic Floyd is named after
- Friends, the homage hiding in plain sight in every episode title
- Marco Arment, listening since at least episode fifty
