Welcome to the show.
I'm Lachlan, and picture this: you open the Claude Code
changelog, there are fresh entries stacked up,
a couple of them sound IMPORTANT,
one of them sounds weirdly tiny,
and somehow all of them are competing with your actual workday...A little
workflow tweak, one new flag, one changed behavior -- and suddenly the
way you use Claude Code on Tuesday is not the way you used it on Monday.
And
that's basically why this show exists.
Claude Code moves FAST, and most people do not have the spare brainpower
to read every line, decode the lingo,
and then work out whether the update actually matters or whether it's
just...
there for the machinery under the bonnet.Right,
because "new update" is not the same thing as "useful update." If a changelog
says there's a new feature, the question I care about is: does that save
me time, change my workflow, or unlock something I couldn't do before?
Exactly,
that's the whole game.
So in this podcast, we'll keep an eye on the Claude Code changelog and
tell you what's happening in plain English.
New features, workflow updates,
practical changes, and most importantly,
the WHY IT MATTERS bit.
That's the piece people often miss.And we're not doing
the "read the release notes out loud and call it analysis" thing.
If there's a new feature, we'll talk about what kind of user it helps.
If there's a workflow change, we'll ask whether it smooths out common
friction or creates new friction.
That's the useful layer.Yeah,
because nobody needs two blokes turning a changelog into bedtime reading.
The dream here is simple: you listen for a few minutes,
you come away knowing what changed in Claude Code,
and you've got a decent feel for whether you should care,
test it, or stash it for later.And I think the
stash-it-for-later
part matters.
Not every update is for every person.
Some episodes, the headline might be a feature power users will jump
on immediately.
Other times it might be a quieter workflow improvement that makes daily
use less annoying.
Those "less annoying" updates are underrated.They really
are.
In product work, those small changes can be the difference between a
tool feeling clunky and feeling natural.
It's like tuning an old bike -- tiny adjustment,
suddenly the whole ride feels better.
Same deal here.
We'll watch for the flashy stuff,
sure, but also the subtle bits that change how Claude Code fits into
real work.So think of this as your lightweight Claude Code update
loop.
Not a deep dive every time.
Not homework.
Just a clean, friendly check-in on what's new and what's actually worth
your attention.That's it.
If Claude Code keeps moving -- and it will -- we'll be here to track
the changelog, sort the signal from the noise,
and help you figure out what might make your next session smoother,
faster, or a bit more powerful.
I'm Lachlan Reed.
And I'm James Turner.
We'll see you when the next update lands.
