Easy to listen, motivational
I find this very easy to listen to, and also thought-provoking. The antithesis of Mel Robbins, in a good way. Takes a more interesting and intellectual approach.

Mark Steadman just started his 30th podcast since 2008 (I’m going to be interviewing him about all of them next week) and this one’s the best. For Undo, How history's outliers got stuff done, Mark is presenting productivity systems like bullet journals and the Pomodoro Technique, which is the one I started with.
I had a boss I hated who loved it and I was excited to hear supporting evidence that he’s a dummy idiot. I assumed Mark would just be making fun of this shit. But he’s both poking holes in them and singing their praises. Most of these systems are not completely practical but do offer pearls of wisdom. And it turns out I should…maybe adapt some of the principles of the Pomodoro Technique???
Mark is funny and the tiny episodes are packed with personality. And yes, they’re tiny! Which is good because I’m Pomodoring these days and only have 5 minute increments of free time available every 30 minutes. (I’m kidding, Mark really does explain how to make the Pomodoro Technique work for you.) I binged these in no time.

Love it
I find this podcast to be really helpful, interesting, and informative. It is very digestible and really has made me think about doing things differently for work. I am actually someone who really dislikes self-help books, podcast, etc and find this to be so useful. Thank you for providing this information and in a format that is easy to listen to!

Just In Time
I just leveled up in my career and am doing my dream job. But it’s the hardest job I’ve ever had and my previous project management system was not cutting it. The last couple of weeks I’ve burnt myself out just trying to sift through all the advice and tips for building a new system. This podcast appeared out of no where in my feed and I was drawn in by the short episodes and focus on one project management system per episode. It’s a really fun listen and very informative and helps cut through the noise, just what I needed, just in time!

Grateful for this podcast
I’ve been listening to this podcast with my 11 year old, trying the different tips and ideas and applying them to homework time. It’s been so helpful! So far my kid loves the “eat the frog” tip! No surprises there I guess…
