more layoffs, remote vs in-person work & a sneak peek for you...

Hey. Happy Friday. 👋🏻

Lots going this week -- I'm sure it's the same with you -- so let's get right to it...

New Podcast Episode: Layoffs Keep Coming and Elon Keeps Tweeting

The layoffs continue -- the data over at layoffs.fyi is a fascinating look at the overall impact. TLDR: if you work at a company that raised $100M+ within the last 12 months, it might be time to start making a move.

Elon's doubling down on the "come back to the office... or else" rhetoric. If you look past the controversy, maybe this is the least-worst way to reduce headcount without a layoff.

Grab it on Apple Podcasts, Spotify Podcasts or Google Podcasts -- and let me know what you think! 🙏🏼

If you don't mind my asking... what podcasts do you listen to on a regular basis? Hit reply and send me your must-listen recommendations.

Full disclosure: I'm going to add your podcasts to a project I'm working on...

Sneak peek:

I'll share a link to it soon -- probably in next Friday's newsletter. It's a bit rough around the edges but, for version 1.0, the goal is two-fold:

1. Allow me (or you) to get an email alert for certain keywords or topics that are mentioned within podcast episodes.
2. Allow me (or you) to see trending topics across various categories. (eg, What topics are rising in the Parenting category over the previous 24 hours? How about the last 7 days?

​

Anyway, more on that soon... I hope you'll send me your favorite podcasts! Again, just hit reply (please)... 🙏🏼

Have a great weekend.
