Another blog post I didn’t want to write — Ok, so… hear me out on this one. Regular readers will know that I’m a huge fan of the iPhone 13 mini. I’ve written about it constantly and my original review is the highest-performing video I’ve ever published on YouTube. I love it. I still love it — despite what…

Yes, I’ve finally moved the iMac to my studio — I’ve finally moved my 24-inch iMac to the studio. But, rest assured, it has been put to very good use over the last few months in the kitchen (yes, you read that right). I love what Apple has done with the new(ish) iMac. Sure, we didn’t get the ‘big one’…

Welcome to the earbuds you’ve probably never heard of — I’ve been keeping something from you. For the last couple of months, I’ve barely used my AirPods Pro. That’s right — my “favourite ever earbuds” have remained pretty much untouched in the studio, apart from being used occasionally for Zoom calls. This is for two reasons. Firstly, the right AirPod…

It’s time to lift the lid! — These next two months are my biggest ever for sponsored videos. But they have also confirmed my suspicions about this element of the creator economy. No one knows what they’re doing. Including yours truly. I’ve written about this before, but the more I deal with sponsorships and brand partners, the…

A lot has changed in two years… — Every time Apple launches a new Mac, there’s at least one common question among buyers in my comments thread. When the M1 chip launched in 2020, it was: “should I go for 8GB or 16GB of unified memory?”. In fact, that question is asked countless times each week, and I’ve…

And what about those USB-C port chips?! — Right — I think we all need to talk about something other than the M2 chip, don’t we? If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably reached the point where you’d rather hang yourself from the ceiling via your eyeballs than be informed — again — that Apple has screwed up…

An update on my quest to become more efficient — A few weeks ago, I revealed that I had fallen hook, line, and sinker in love with Tiago Forte’s idea of a Second Brain. His book has completely transformed my approach to note-taking and personal knowledge management. This is surprising considering that I’m still only half of the way through…

I’ve never been this productive — Back in April, I suggested that Brain.fm might be the “ best focus app for work”. Three months later, and having used the app literally every day to get stuff done — I think I was right. Better still, I think this app has made me more productive than I’ve…

And why they are key to my success — The best thing I’ve ever done in my professional career is going full-time as a content creator. It’s the thing I’ve dreamed about doing my entire life — building my own little empire and being rewarded for creating stuff. It used to feel like a pipe dream, but as I…
