This is TechCrunch.

This episode is brought to you by Plaud, an AI wearable gadget that takes notes of meetings and calls.

With Plaud, you don't have to take notes and make summaries anymore.

It can make life so much easier, specifically Plaud Note Pro, a credit card-card-sized AI gadget that snaps onto your phone and makes it so you can actually juggle three tasks at once,

instead of, you know, trying to listen to something, like maybe this podcast, while also trying to quickly think and scribble down notes.

Plod makes the impossible possible. Now, I could have used the Plot Note Pro at my first job, where I had a boss who loved throwing laundry lists at me of things to get done. PlaudNode Pro would have helped me keep track of it all. It's basically an all-in-one assistant, where you can record audio, upload images, jot-down thoughts, and highlight key moments. Plod turns them into notes. And then with Ask Plod, you'll also get insights and a draft of a follow-up email

that you can send right after your meeting. Ready to take your meetings and podcast listening to

the next level? Just search PLAUD on Google or Amazon and use my code T-C-Daily to grab your own.

How's the business going? We're busy than ever, but struggling to get the staff we need.

Recruiting can be such a distraction. We gave Job Centre Plus a try, and they've really helped us out. Really? Yeah. It was dead easy. We got our own employer advisor, Julie, who helped advertise our jobs, shortlisted candidates for us and letters interview at the Job Centre. We've hired some great people, and Job Center Plus really took the

hassle out of it, and there was no fee. Brilliant. That's straight on my to-do list.
