I remember when Nextel first launched its "push-to-talk" walkie-talkie feature back in the late 90s. It mostly resulted in people yelling into their phones at the mall, and it honestly made me hate the idea of talking to my phone in public for decades. But things have changed.
Between the rise of asynchronous communication and the power of AI transcription, I’ve found that talking to my phone is actually one of the best ways to stay productive while I’m away from my desk.
In this episode, I’m breaking down why I’ve embraced talking to my phone. I’ll share the two specific apps that have simplified my workflow—Whisper Memos and Todoist’s Ramble feature—so I can capture context, brain dump my shutdown routines, and turn spoken ideas into actionable tasks without losing a single thought.
