Jim’s Sidebar

Technology EN ↓ 5 episodes

Each episode of Jim’s Sidebar is a collection of my daily, unfiltered thoughts - recorded while I’m out and about, thinking about AI, business, building Sidebar, or whatever problem I’m trying to solve that day. No scripts, no over-editing, just real ideas stitched together into a weekly conversation. Expect raw insights, spontaneous takes, and the kind of thinking that happens when you’re away from your desk. Whether it’s a lesson from building an app, a rant about AI, or a random observation, this is where the side of my brain that doesn’t fit in a tweet gets to talk.

My brain is everywhere. Come and have a look. 27.06.2026 23:32

Designing an intelligence layer for forms 06.06.2026 19:52

This week’s episode is pretty short after being away working. But I did have some big breakthroughs with Debriefer that I go into more detail about. There’s a lot going on that I cannot put into this podcast but as soon as I can, it’ll make for interesting listening I reckon.

A much needed holiday 29.05.2026 16:42

My update from this week is a bit of a rollercoaster. I've been on holiday with my family, which was amazing, and it's really helped me get back into the swing of things. I've also been working on Cyber Essentials for my company, which I'm really proud of. I've also been working on Sidebar, which is going well, and I'm excited to release it to the App Store next week. I've also been thinking about...

Not quite so smooth this week 23.05.2026 12:14

Launching my Sidebar podcast 17.05.2026 18:23

Hey there, welcome to Sidebar, my very first podcast. It's been a whirlwind week for me, and I'm excited to share what I've learned along the way. From recording my first episode to setting up a feature that allows you to release and archive your podcast, I've had a lot to unpack.
