Now in its third year, PetaPixel has gathered its team together to guess the things they just know are going to take place over the next calendar year. To help, we've also brought in Gordon Laing, the brains behind the excellent CameraLabs website and YouTube channel.

All of us are, as usual, ready to be very, very wrong.

We use Riverside to record The PetaPixel Podcast in our online recording studio.

We hope you enjoy the podcast and we look forward to hearing what you think. If you like what you hear, please support us by subscribing, liking, commenting, and reviewing! Every week, the trio go over comments on YouTube and here on PetaPixel, but if you’d like to send a message for them to hear, you can do so through SpeakPipe.
