Welcome to Comfort Zone! This is a show about exploring new and interesting tech, and stepping outside your comfort zone to expand your horizons (whether you want to or not).

In this debut episode, we talk about what Apple should steal from the Meta Quest 3, how an iPad enthusiast takes advantage of a new Mac, and how precious family photos were saved from being lost to time.

Then there's the challenge! We all spent a few weeks using Apple Reminders for task management, and our challenge for week 2 is something none of us saw coming...

Comfort Zone is a podcast that pushes its hosts outside of their, well, comfort zone. Every week, each host will bring new technology they've tried to the show to discuss whether it worked and how it pushed them out of their comfort zone.

Then, at the conclusion of each episode, one of the hosts will issue the dreaded challenge to the others to try something new, and perhaps even something they might not like. It's a fun, fresh way to learn something new, along with the hosts every week.

Matt decides to stop being so grumpy, Chris may or may not have survived WWDC, and Niléane brings a strange robot to the party.

Niléane tests the gang on their French knowledge (it goes great...), Chris adds some goblins to this productivity system, and Matt tries to connect to the other side.
