This is episode 1500! This is a huge milestone for me, and in today's episode, I include some new theme music. Mark Zuckerburg recently did a keynote at Meta Connect. It's long and there were a lot of technical difficulties so instead, Andrew Bosworth, CTO at Meta, explains the new products and their features. Additionally Adam Mosseri explains his favorite features of Instagram DMs, plus both Edits and Threads have some updates. Lastly, if you have never left a review for the show, would you mind taking 2 minutes to do so?
