Summary:
Today I’m jamming with Ryan Duey, CEO of Plunge, one of the most affordable cold plunge tub manufacturers on the market. Cold plunge benefits include nervous system regulation, boosting energy, greater recovery/performance, increased immune support, increased motivation, mood improvement, pain relief, stress relief, better sleep, and so much more! If you know me, you know I love the benefits of cold showers and cold plunges, and I was stoked to get my hands on one of their amazing plunge tubs. (P.S.

I used to use a different app that was able to save excerpts from podcast and really enjoyed it. I could listen to the podcast and quickly save things that I wanted to come back to later. Snipd take this to a whole new level with AI integration, creating summaries of podcasts and summarizing the main takeaways from what I’ve saved and snipped. I really love how it helps me prioritize what podcast to listen to with it summaries & deep dives.

I’ve been using Snipd for about a year and this app has been life changing. I listen to about 17 hours of podcasts a week and I want to take notes on 95% of them. Snipd makes it so easy to do. I can triple click my headphones and record a snip. The app also improves rapidly which is welcomed. It’s an easy subscription for me to pay.
