Episode 319: Contract with the Universe
TOPIC: Oh my GOD, this is torture.
This week, Dan and Merlin talk about—amongst other odds and sods— the Mean FedEx Guy, the weird future of gig economies, and Adventure Time.
Then, there's some handy tips on how to leverage iOS Accessibility settings for a better and more efficient experience on your device.
Listener Michelle writes in to ask about dealing with colleagues who use the hallway as an ad hoc one-on-one meeting. What strategies can we employ to be civil and collegial about careless interruptions without lowering our standards or losing our minds?

- Ungainly X-Mann Meetup #16 — Merlin Mann
MERLIN MANN (Back to Work, Roderick on the Line, Reconcilable Differences, Do By Friday, You Look Nice Today, et al.) invites you to drop by Two Cats Comics on the evening of Thursday, April 27th to hang out, talk about comics, and just say, “Hi.” It's free and it's fun.
Includes a great tip on making a bespoke theater-friendly custom watch face.
For less than a million bucks, CityWide gets Yellow Cab's color scheme, its famous phone number (415) 333-3333, 160 of its cabs and the sublease to Yellow Cab's property.
[The episode starts with Pen sleeping under a tree and a meditating Jake floating. Pen wakes up and rushes to Jake.]
Tesla's market capitalization is now bigger than General Motors', making it the largest U.S. based automaker by that metric.
Clipper Street! One of San Francisco's "Magic Streets." It's like a portal.
