Funsize 2025: Year in Review with the Team | Currents

This special Currents episode pulls the Funsize crew into one room for a candid, off-the-cuff 2025 debrief with host Tony Sanchez. Instead of a polished case study reel, you get the kind of hallway and happy‑hour conversations that rarely make it into public recaps. The team kicks things off with everyone’s Spotify “listening ages” using Wrapped as a jumping-off point. From there, they dig into Funsize’s &Friends division and how their flavor of staff augmentation really works in practice—being embedded with clients while still protecting the studio’s culture and craft. They share reflections on key projects without breaking NDAs, talk through what it was like to work more deeply with AI, and unpack the difference between living in abstract data sets versus actually testing physical products out in the world. Stay to the end to catch everyone’s wins and “yeehaws” from the year, plus the one word they chose to sum up 2025 and the word they are carrying into 2026.
