96: Neither great, nor drunk
John is back from his honeymoon. Daniel played in a poker tournament. We talk about a wide range of topics, none of which have anything to do with running a web development agency.

Daniel Coulbourne & John Drexler
95: We get hired to resolve unpleasantness
We have a new client. We have so many topics we can't discuss. So we talk about fun things instead.
94: How to get paid
We got $40k that was owed to use months ago.
93: Be a good guy
We talk about BJJ, but I promise it's actually interesting. We plead with a former client to be a good guy.
92: The trap I set for you seems to have caught my leg instead
We're learning a lot from early Tidy users. We're sending a cease and desist.
91: The agency's agency
We have an idea to do Thunk marketing and Tidy marketing at the same time. And it feels like a breakthrough.
90: You have to pre-launch before you launch
Tidy marketing is in full swing. Please join our mailing list to support the launch! tidyup.agnecy
89: The zero risk agency (empaneling Justin Jackson)
After hemming and hawing for 20 minutes, we are joined by the inimitable Justin Jackson. He gives us an absolute treasure trove of good advice for launching and marketing Tidy.
88: Setting pass/fail criteria on our projects
Laracon.EU was a blast. We continue to develop the sales funnel. We need to know whether our growth plans are actually working. So we set some simple goals for the next 6 weeks.
87: tidyup.agency
We have quietly launched our client management app. It has invoices, agreements, schedules, time sheets, reports, and more. We'll be doing a full marketing blitz soon. Daniel has been cooking up an extremely cool AI feat...
86: Holacracy, if you can keep it
John went on a Claude frenzy, and Kapow is nearly here. We reach out to bankers and learn a little bit about how their world works. John believes in benevolent dictatorships more than "flat organizations."
85: Our billion dollar theory of the future
It feels like there's a dark cloud over web development right now. So where does Thunk fit into the future, and how do we win? We lay it all out here.
84: You are here
We had a very bad week. In related news, we are looking for a new client.
83: Do a good job ™
Our goal for 2026 is to do a good job. John wants to start doing some serious, long term business development.
82: AI fatigue
We gave ourselves raises. John is weary of AI. Daniel is using Claude skills.
81: We set up pay bands
We hired someone. We set up standardized pay bands. We discuss how we use AI, and what makes a bad AI-driven pull request. We like Three Body Problem. John sang in choir.
80: Late fees are unenforceable
Marketing works. Late fees don't. John is speaking at Laracon EU! We review our OKRs and cash situation. John has more mic issues.
79: The wire:live retro (empaneling Caleb Porzio)
Our dear friend Caleb Porzio drops by for some laughs, and a retrospective on Wire:live. We discuss what went well, what could improve, and what we'll do differently next time.
78: Empaneling Matt Stauffer
Matt runs Tighten, and is a kind of big brother to us. We ask him about running agencies, building teams, hiring senior developers, and a lot more. Watch his new Laracast series "How to Build a Dev Team" now.
77: Silly season takes no prisoners
Our biggest client had a problem. We tried to get out in front of it, with mixed success. Here's what we learned. Join the new social game here. Listen to John's clickbait episode about it here.
