Inspiring

Amazing podcast, there's so much fascinating context in terms of the history and development of Photoshop sprinkled throughout, which is what I came to this series initially looking for—but even more the tips and dive into different features were both helpful and inspiring to get me more ambitious about finding more efficient ways of doing things. Now thanks to this series I'm able to work faster, and so I'm able to do more of the work I enjoy. Great series!

Not your usual product podcast!

This podcast takes a different approach to Photoshop and LightRoom. It's not just about the app, but also a chance to hear from the people that make it and those that use it and how they do so.

My favourite part so far from most of the interview episodes is when the guests are asked what they would do or change if they were suddenly the "Emporer of Adobe"!

A quick note on the content's usefulness - at the recent Adobe MAX Creative Conference, after hearing an attendee ask one of the Adobe team members in the community hall "what was Bridge and why use it instead of Lightroom" and learning that particular team member couldn't answer (he was not from any of the design teams related to PS, LR, etc.,) I suggested they listen to this podcast, and specifically Episode 27 (Does Adobe Bridge get a Bad Rap?) in which David clearly explained the pros and cons of both applications.

Keep them coming!
