On Phonograph, I talk to @lexfri.xyz about of the golden age of podcast ads, and then I turn to @johnsiracusa.bsky.social and Casey Liss for the story of how Cards Against Humanity asked John to review a series of toasters as a performance art ad campaign.

Crestfallen that you missed my webinar on negotiating better outcomes (e.g., making more money)?
You can order the video. I’m like Blockbuster now.

I know some of you like to wait until the last minute. This is it! This is the last minute to sign up for my webinar on negotiating win/wins.

There isn’t! But there COULD be. I’ll put it on the list.
This. This is what would happen.
Free to play against the computer. Paying members can challenge their friends to games as well. And one subscription covers both Lex.Games and Tile & Error. Neat!

Fans of Scrabble / Crossplay / others of that ilk:
Please check out my new game Tile & Error. The game that answers the question: What if you built a two-player crossword-building game, but added a healthy dose of chaos?
If your approach to negotiation is you start high and they start low and you meet in the middle… let me help you.

Hey, want to beta test my new app? It's Scrabble/Crossplay/Words With Friends — mixed with chaos.

Both times, the initial answer was "no." In both cases, I was able to convince Al and his team.
Next month, I'm hosting a live webinar on Negotiating Win/Wins. I can't explain WHY I'm particularly good at negotiating, but I can definitely explain HOW — and share my best negotiating skills with you.
Years later, I finally got to close a true business deal with Al, where Stitcher recorded all 70+ of his concerts during his first Ridiculously Self-Indulgent, Ill-Advised Vanity Tour and released them in Stitcher Premium.
Two handsome and talented songwriters.
I first met "Weird Al" Yankovic when I was 15, after I convinced his manager to let me interview him for the local newspaper.
The best negotiations are the ones that everyone leaves feeling good. Where there are no losers. Where it's win/win.
Join me April 1 for practical, actionable tips on negotiating with confidence, making sure you and the other party both feel like winners.

No fooling: On April 1st, I'm hosting a new webinar on Negotiating Win/Wins.
Many of us struggle with how best to approach negotiations. We leave feeling nervous, or worse, that we got taken advantage of.
“If you know, you know” is one of the worst tautologies out there. It is what it is.
Today, I published the 1,000th episode of Your Daily Lex.
It's a lot like the first 999, I think.

I hate how washed out my monitor makes my face look during video calls, so I made a tiny little Mac app to address my vanity.

Camera Ready is free and lets you pick a color palette to beam on your face so you look even better. You already look great, by the way.
I’m still writing “the Philadelphia Eagles are Super Bowl champions“ on all my checks

Reserving a snow plow for Sunday's snowfall.
As ever, I got quotes ranging from $120 to $670 to plow my driveway.
Also, it's basically inevitable that the Sunday performance of "Same Time, Next Year" will get canceled, so show up Fri or Sat if you're able!

Lex is one of those Friedman podcasters I feel like I already know. Now I just need something to ask him.
But I do know know what @lexfri.xyz might ask you: to become a sponsor-advertiser on his comedy tech podcast that I adore and listen to weekly. reboundcast.com
Spent some time with my friends Alex and Greg and Chris.
