Our Summer Vibes Check
Description
We’re in between WWDC and the Public Betas, and it’s the perfect time for a summer vibe check!
Tom and Jeff break down what they’re reading, watching, listening to, and playing with this summer. Books, newsletters, podcasts, the new Reply All Time and Top Songs playlists in Apple Music, and more. Additionally, Tom gets nerdy with Claude, Readwise, and MCP, while Jeff plans to dabble in sketching and watercolors.
