What does good company culture actually look like, and how do you build it from scratch when your whole team is scattered across time zones?

In this episode, Jason Moore and Ephie Risho hang out with special guest Dave Laird, who left a cushy leadership role to launch a tech startup tackling one of the most painful headaches in the auditing world. But for Dave, the tech isn’t the main story; the culture is.

We discuss why culture isn’t about free snacks or Friday Zoom happy hours, but about creating a place where people genuinely want to show up. Dave shares how he’s intentionally designed connection into every part of his company—from how his team collaborates remotely, to how they build trust with customers, to how they ensure everyone’s rowing in the same direction.

If you’re building a team, running a startup, or just trying to make your company feel a little more human—this one’s going to stick with you.

UX has its own sacred relics—timeless principles that can either guide you to design glory or leave you tumbling into the pit of bad product decisions. In this adventure-packed episode, Ephie Risho and Jason Moore dust off the first nine Laws of UX (lawsofux.com) and put them to the test in real-world practice. These aren’t just abstract theories—they’re the hidden maps that shape every click, tap, and swipe your users make.

We trek through Fitts’s Law, showing why the size and distance of a button can make or break user flow. We dodge the traps of Cognitive Bias, exploring why users don’t act as rationally as your product requirements assume. And we uncover the power of the Aesthetic-Usability Bias, where beauty doesn’t just sell—it convinces people your product works better. Along the way, we pull in tangible examples, sharp strategies, and even a few of our own “booby-trap” design fails to prove these laws aren’t just theory—they’re survival gear.

Less about UX leadership and more about the practice of design, this episode is your field guide for building better products. Funny, practical, and just a little bit daring, it’s everything you need to keep your projects from disappearing into the UX equivalent of a snake pit.

Because in UX—as in archaeology—it’s not the years, it’s the mileage.

Remote work isn’t just about wearing pajamas and muted microphones—it’s a whole new frontier of engagement (or disengagement). In this episode, Ephie Risho and Jason Moore delve into the latest statistics on remote work and what they truly reveal about productivity, connection, and burnout. Then they bring it down to earth with practical strategies from Building Engagement and Connection in Virtual Teams, plus the usual dose of funny stories about the joys and fails of working from home.

Expect a mix of sharp insights, laugh-out-loud moments, and some surprisingly easy ways to make your team feel less like a collection of floating Zoom heads and more like… well, a team.

Because remote work isn’t going anywhere—but disengagement doesn’t have to stick around either.

In this episode of UXPERTS, Ephie Risho and Jason Moore take on the holy grail of modern work: balance—and not the yoga-on-your-lunch-break kind (though, hey, good for you). We're talking about the real stuff: how to bring joy back into your day, keep burnout at bay, and draw the line between “working from home” and “living at work.”

They revisit the magic of in-person moments—rec rooms, kitchen banter, spontaneous whiteboard doodles—and ask: How do we recreate that spark remotely? From setting crystal-clear boundaries (like only working on that laptop in that chair) to starting the day outside the house like a 9-to-5 cleanse, they share strategies that actually help.

Expect practical tips, a few confessions (yes, they’ve both answered Slack in pajamas), and plenty of laughs as they explore what it really means to make work not just manageable—but meaningful.

So if your calendar notifications are chasing you into your dreams, this one’s for you. Hit play, and let’s talk boundaries, burnout, and the surprisingly radical act of logging off.

Jason Moore and Ephie Risho wrap up their epic journey through Transformed by Marty Cagan with a bang. In this finale, they tackle the biggest question of all: how do you actually change a company stuck in outdated ways into one that hums with agility, clarity, and purpose?

We’re talking real-world transformation, from creaky org charts and waterfall habits to sleek, empowered product teams. They dig into Adobe’s power-up from CD-ROMs and 2-year release cycles to a lean, mean, agile machine that boosted its bottom line and left shrink-wrapped boxes in the dust. Along the way, they share their own battle scars, success stories, and the occasional snarky aside—because changing a company might be hard, but talking about it doesn’t have to be boring.

Grab your headphones and let’s demystify the transformation game, one product team at a time.

Welcome back to UXPERTS, where Ephie Risho and Jason Moore return to the trenches with Part IV of our deep dive into Marty Cagan’s Transformed. In this episode, they unpack up through Part 8 of the book, focusing on the messy, painful, but oh-so-necessary process of change—especially for companies stuck in outdated, unproductive habits.

Drawing from their own adventures in the wild world of product and UX, Ephie and Jason share war stories, cautionary tales, and the occasional laugh, all while exploring the tricky terrain of transformation. Because let’s face it: change is hard. Walking into a new company and trying to copy-paste what worked before? That’s a recipe for frustration. Instead, they explore how true transformation requires humility, context, and a keen UX lens to help teams evolve the way they think, work, and deliver real value.

So buckle up—it’s time to talk growth, grit, and the guts it takes to transform.
