White noise has a very precise technical definition, but people use the term loosely, to describe all sorts of washes of sound—synthetic hums, or natural sounds like a rainstorm or crashing waves—that can be used to mask other sounds. Twenty years ago, if you'd told someone white noise was a regular part of your life, they would have found that unusual. Nowadays, it's likely they use it themselves or know someone who does. The global white noise business is valued at $1.3 billion; TikTok is full of people trumpeting its powers; and Spotify users alone listen to three million hours of it daily. Far more of these sounds already exist than any one person could need—or use. And yet, more keep coming. Looking out at this uncanny ocean of seemingly indistinguishable noises, we wanted to see if it was possible to put a human face on it; to understand why there is so much of it, and what motivates the people trying to soothe our desperate ears with sounds you're not really supposed to hear. In this episode, you'll hear from Elan Ullendorff, who writes the illuminating Substack Escape the Algorithm; Stéphane Pigeon, founder of myNoise; Brandon Reed, who runs Dwellspring; and Mack Haygood, author of Hush: Media and Sonic Self-Control and host of the podcast Phantom Power.

In this episode of The Kula Ring, Nelson Bruton, Founder of Manufacturing Chats, joins Carman and Jeff to explore the role of live chat in modern B2B manufacturing websites. Nelson shares how real-time, human-enabled chat, not bots, can unlock conversions from prospects who would otherwise stay silent. Drawing from 20 years in the digital space, he outlines why staffing chat with internal teams often falls short, and how businesses can successfully integrate chat into their buyer engagement strategy without overwhelming their teams. Whether you're considering bots, hybrid AI, or fully staffed human support, this episode offers clear advice on how to maximize conversations and move beyond form fills.

The best conversations from Carman and Lima during the past week. The guys react to the Browns drafting both Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders. What caused Shedeur's slide? And has the team put Browns fans in a difficult position? Browns GM Andrew Berry has taken some criticism, and Ken and Anthony discuss whether he needs to 'pull a Brandon Beane.' Plus, reaction to the Cavs sweeping away the Heat, and Ken gets into a debate over LeBron vs. Jordan.
The best conversations from Carman and Lima during the past week. Ken is out on Travis Hunter for the Browns. The guys declare that this offseason sucks, and they wonder if the Browns could have paid more for Joe Milton than what the Patriots ultimately got in their trade with the Cowboys. Would you trade any of the Browns' old titles for a Lombardi Trophy? Is the Cavs' great season being underappreciated because of rings culture? All that, plus revisiting Mitch's hot takes on the Browns, and more.
