Great learning experience

For a non-designer this has been a great learning experience so far. Mike and his guests are able to tell meaningful stories that give good insight into how good designers approach hard problems.

The new favourite design podcast

Absolutely love this new podcast by Mike Rowe. The episodes contain great content and conversation with top notch guests while providing tremendous amount of useful insights. I find the soothing voice of Mike and his relaxing conversation vibes with the guests make it very easy to listen to. Even though the episodes are an hour long so far, they are very interesting throughout. Thanks for this great podcast.
