Dithering is a subscription-only podcast hosted by Ben Thompson, founder of the Stratechery business-strategy newsletter, and John Gruber, the writer behind the Apple-focused blog Daring Fireball. Each episode runs exactly 15 minutes, twice a week, with two of the most influential voices in technology commentary trading takes on Apple, the tech industry, media, and whatever else is on their minds. It is a paid show built on Thompson's own membership infrastructure, included in the Stratechery Plus bundle.
Dr. Bunsen is the long-running weblog of Seth Brown, a data scientist who built a cult following among Mac power users by treating productivity as a science experiment. He writes precise, unhurried essays on Mac scripting, Markdown workflows, standing desks, and the art of telling stories with data. By day he studies complex systems and the structure of the internet; by night he ships small, sharp command-line tools and chronicles the obsessive pursuit of a frictionless workspace.
John Gruber is the writer behind Daring Fireball, the long-running Apple-focused weblog he launched in 2002 and turned into a full-time, ad-and-membership-funded one-person media business by 2006. He co-created Markdown with Aaron Swartz in 2004, hosts the popular podcast The Talk Show, and co-hosts Dithering with Ben Thompson. Equal parts UI obsessive and sharp-tongued critic, Gruber has become one of the most influential independent voices covering Apple and Mac culture.
