Comfort Zone

Comfort Zone is a weekly podcast that pushes its hosts outside of their, well, comfort zone hosted by Christopher Lawley, Niléane Dorffer, and Matt Birchler. Every Thursday, each host will bring new technology they’ve tried to the show to discuss whether it worked and how it pushed them out of their comfort zone.

Then, at the conclusion of each episode, one of the hosts will issue the dreaded challenge to the others to try something new, and perhaps even something they might not like. It’s a fun, fresh way to learn something new along with the hosts every week.

Comfort Zone is available in the Apple Podcasts app or you can subscribe in OvercastPocket Casts, or another podcast player with the Comfort Zone feed.

For even more from the Comfort Zone crew, you can subscribe to Cozy Zone. Cozy Zone is a weekly bonus episode of Comfort Zone where Matt, Niléane, and Chris invite listeners to join them in the Cozy Zone where they’ll cover extra topics, invent wilder challenges and games, and share all their great (and not so great) takes on tech. You can subscribe to Cozy Zone for $5 per month here or $50 per year here.

Comfort Zone is available as a video podcast on YouTube too. Visit the MacStories YouTube channel to subscribe to the show, for which we’ve created a dedicated Comfort Zone playlist.
