Episode notes

Land of the giants is a weekly podcast that explores the biggest, most important tech companies. This season we look at Apple and how its iPhone has forced them to make compromises they didn't expect. We also talk about what it's like working in an industry where every outlet has their own special sauce.

Casey Johnston is a journalist and editor who writes the column "Ask A Swole Woman," which now appears in her newsletter ”She's a Beast.”

”I feel more comfortable lately with a sort of beloved-local-restaurant level of success. What's nice about Substack is that we've come to this place that I hope lasts where we can have this sort of local restaurant relationship with writers, or I can have that with readers, where I don't have to be part of this big machine in order to do something that I really like.”
