The worst feeling in a professional meeting: someone references an article, a trend, or a development — and you haven’t heard of it. The room moves on. You smile and nod. Internally: panic.
This happens because you’re busy doing your actual job. The articles about your industry pile up unread. You KNOW you should be reading them. You just can’t.
In every meeting, there’s a moment:
The person who says these things sounds sharp, informed, credible. The person who hasn’t seen them feels behind.
The difference isn’t intelligence. It’s information consumption. And information consumption is a format problem.
audiclip generates a daily podcast from articles you save. Listen during your commute. Walk into every meeting having heard about the latest industry developments.
What changes:
Two hosts discussing the articles means you’ve heard each idea debated — not just presented. You walk in with nuanced takes, not just awareness.
Day 1: You’re catching up. Day 7: You reference something current in a meeting. Day 30: You’re the person who always seems to know what’s going on. Day 90: People start asking YOU “did you see this?” — because they know you always have.
The daily podcast doesn’t just inform you. It changes how people perceive you. And that compounds — professionally, politically, financially.
Working with global teams? Save articles from local markets in their language. Listen in yours. Walk into the meeting with the Tokyo team knowing what their local press said. Walk into the Berlin meeting referencing Handelsblatt.
Nobody expects you to read Japanese or German press. When you reference it, you look exceptional.
You’re not uninformed. You’re under-formatted. Fix the format, fix the feeling.
