Ever notice how you can do real business with someone for months without ever actually getting on a call with them? That's the setup Jay Schwedelson is pulling off right now, and there's a Stanford study, a sneaky read receipt trick, and a LinkedIn button most people scroll right past behind it. If you're still typing novels into Slack and texting paragraphs, this one is going to bug you in the best way.

Best Moments:
(00:45) The Stanford study that says speaking gets your thoughts across four times faster than typing
(02:11) The hidden read receipt inside voice memos that almost nobody talks about
(03:00) The dictation stack Jay runs and why typing everything is leaving ideas on the table
(03:39) The tiny microphone icon on the LinkedIn app that changes how you build relationships
(04:45) Why the most connected world ever somehow feels the most disconnected
(06:45) The dinner brag Jay refuses to accept as a personality trait
