Why Would You Use That Product

In this episode, Kate and Laura complain about a lot of stuff they use every day and then wonder why they do that. </p> Drink pairing: Prosecco </p>

00:34:43

Consistency

The two least consistent people in the world argue about why consistency matters. And why it doesn't. It's pretty much what you'd expect. </p> Drink Pairing: Mulled Wine</p>

00:35:13

Looks Old Works Great

In an episode that should have been called "a cry for help," Kate and Laura shriek about how old things can actually work just fine and please stop changing everything. The subtext is strong with this one. </p> Drink Pairing: Old Fashioned</p> Support the damn podcast on Patreon, you cheap bastards! </p>

00:22:45

High Level UX Jobs

In this episode, Kate and Laura really go off the rails talking about the similarities, differences, and issues with various different higher level UX jobs, many of which they haven't actually held in well over a decade, if at all. </p> Drink Pairing: Daquiri</p> Support the podcast on Patreon! </p>

Some Things Are Harder than Others

In this episode, Kate and Laura whine about how hard it is to actually make things and Laura makes fun of The Future, again. </p> Drink Pairing: Hard Cider</p>

00:30:42

Journeys

This episode is like being on a long car ride with two loud friends (Kate and Laura) who won't shut up about the journey. They yell a bit about how designers make everything into a much bigger deal than users really want or care about. </p> Drink pairing: Anything out of a hip flask</p>

00:22:38

Collaboration vs Design by Committee

In this episode, Kate and Laura argue about semantics. Again. This time they try to decide why collaboration is good and committees are bad. </p> Drink Pairing: Sazerac</p>

00:27:05

Predicting Disaster

In this episode, Kate and Laura argue about how to best predict disasters when deciding what to build. Obviously they never applied this framework before they started making a podcast. </p> Drink Pairing: Hurricane</p>

00:31:02

Designing in Triples

Kate explains why she likes to make everything three times as hard as it needs to be. If you're playing the What is Wrong with UX drinking game and drinking every time they mention Task Flows, then maybe don't make any plans for after the podcast. </p> Drink Pairing: Triple Sec</p>
