The team talk about how to swap unproductive habits for ones that boost you in life or business. Steve shares his thoughts on how this connects with social minimalism and Jason has been trying apps to increase his content bandwith. We follow up with a look at the latest tech, from phones to the forecasted PS5. For once, no shots are fired at the big five tech companies.
