Customer Reviews
unbelievably arrogant
I don't know how successful these guys actually are –– certainly seem to be well known in the field -- but holy cow, they're so arrogant I can't stand to listen to them. In the episode about the book, REWORK, one of their bragging points is that they've been in business for seven years. Since when does a mere seven years experience make you an expert?? Not sure I want to take advice from these guys.
Less is Great
For people who want highly concentrated bites of effectiveness, Jason Fried and his crew at 37signals are hard to beat. This is valuable input aesthetically, philosophically, commercially, and personally. Their work at 37signals as an implementation of their work/life philosophy is inspiring and serves as a clarion call to rational, effective and intentional thinking in a (commercial) world that is increasingly off-kilter. We all have very limited time to consume an overabundance of content. This podcast will stay on the short playlist.
Great first podcast
Very informational, 37 signals seems to be on the cutting edge here. I also appreciated the nod to biomimicry, which I think is great.
