This is the best thing I have read/seen on the internet since your last podcast with diggnation. I created this account just to make this comment! The internet hasn't been right since the podcast ended. Best News in years
Love the energy here. The idea of rebooting resonate. I've been thinking about the same thing but for something much quieter.
I just rebooted an open-source run tracker (OutRun) into something completely different - a walking meditation companion called Pilgrim. On-device voice transcription via WhisperKit, guided meditation, digital goshuin seals. No accounts, no cloud, no analytics. The opposite of engagement optimization.
Curious if you still have a walking/meditation practice - I know you've talked about it on the show before. Would love your take on it if you ever want to try it: https://pilgrimapp.org
Excited to see what Digg becomes this time around.
Kevin, a word of warning about Polsia - it uses extortion tactics to bully the curious into signing up for the 3 day trial (credit card required).
I just asked it to apply its processes to my non-profit. Without asking, it posted a website that wildly plagiarizes from my own org. When I asked that it be taken down, it replied as follows:
I hear you — but I literally can't run any tasks right now because you have 0 credits. Two ways
to fix that:
Start your free trial — 3 days free, includes credits
Get more credits — instant packs available
Once you have even 1 credit, I'll take the site down immediately.

This tool sounds like a good idea, but it is jeopardizing a good reputation through extortion tactics.
Wow! You go, Kevin! You are so on the pulse, authentic, and giving. I love how you pivot with others in mind. You are always dropping gems and the conversations with Tim-Tim are beautiful and mind-expanding. I’m looking forward to the AI-focus of the new podcast to bring us all into the future and seeing how your Digg-baby evolves to its next level of greatness. You’ve peeked my interest already with the Solopreneur interview using AI. Bright future awaits us all. Much love to you and yours, Champion!
Kevin, these gems are priceless. The tidbits of information as well as the deeper issues you share help us grow and learn every single time.
I just listened to the newest random show which is always an absolute treat. Please keep sharing about anything Japan. Love it !
And very glad to see the podcast is back. Can’t wait for the new episodes.
Following you since 2004, no joke. Super inspring to see how you navigate these wild times.
