    Smart idea to listen for trigger words. Not sure of an app that does that. If you have iOS, you can set Overcast to skip the intro or outro by however long you’d like. Open the podcast’s main...

    I picked up my first TIMBUK2 backpack this summer. While the brand's quality may have dipped according to others, I've found it to be great. I took it out in the rain and was shocked to see water beads on the outside. I'm used to moisture just soaking in. If you ever want another bag for cheaper, check eBay for "TIMBUK2 Branded with Tags". I got mine for way less from an ex or current employee selling their branded pack. The only difference is the bag will have a Verizon, Paypal, etc. logo on it.
