How do you design an interface… without an interface?

In this episode, Ephie Risho and Jason Moore tackle Golden Krishna’s provocative idea that the best interface is no interface at all—and then promptly try to break it with real-world stories, bad examples, and a healthy dose of humor.

From voice assistants and motion-triggered lights to invisible workflows and systems that just work, they unpack Krishna’s three core principles:

• Embrace processes, not screens

• Leverage computers instead of serving them

• Design systems that adapt to people—not the other way around

But sometimes stripping away the UI goes too far. When does “simple” become frustrating? When does invisible turn into inscrutable? Expect thoughtful UX theory, honest war stories, and the usual UXPERTS banter as Ephie and Jason explore what happens when the interface disappears—and why that’s both exciting and dangerous.

In this AMA episode, Ephie Risho and Jason Moore open the vault and answer listener questions about leadership, growth, and the weird, winding paths that shape a UX career. From the defining moments that changed how they lead, to the mistakes they’re oddly grateful for, the conversation moves between heartfelt honesty and that signature UXPERTS humor.

And of course, bad UX examples make an appearance. The kind that sticks with you, teaches you something, and haunts your dreams just a little.

Whether you’re a designer trying to level up, a leader navigating the next stage, or just someone who enjoys hearing two grown adults roast terrible interfaces, this episode delivers insight, vulnerability, and more laughs than an error message written by Legal.

It’s peak ‘Ask-Me-Anything’ energy—unpredictable, thoughtful, and way more fun than a snooze fest.

Join Ephie Risho and Jason Moore for a lively conversation about The Medici Effect—Frans Johansson’s modern classic on how the best ideas emerge where different disciplines collide. From Renaissance Florence to today’s product teams, they explore how innovation sparks at the intersection of cultures, fields, and experiences.

Expect stories that range from the famous two-ropes experiment to IDEO’s design thinking process and AI-spurred innovation, all woven into what it means for UX research, design, and leadership. The discussion dives into how diversity, cross-domain thinking, and creative risk-taking can break associative barriers and reshape how teams approach problem-solving.

Packed with humor, real-world parallels, and actionable insights, this episode challenges designers and product leaders to stop coloring inside their professional lines—and start creating at the intersections where innovation actually happens.

So… what happens when recruiting real humans for UX research becomes harder than finding parking at a design conference? You build your own users. Literally.

In this episode, Ephie Risho and Jason Moore talk with technologist and UX researcher Christina Medeiros, who’s doing something that sounds a little sci-fi: using synthetic users—AI-powered personas that test your designs before you even call in a participant.

Christina breaks down how she trained digital personas like “Bailey Blake,” fed them prototypes, and let them loose on early design concepts; catching blind spots, flagging confusing language, and sometimes sounding way too human for comfort.

We dig into when “fake” users can actually improve real research, why human behavior is still gloriously unpredictable (and why that matters), and Christina’s dream of running a dog rescue farm (because UX people have range).

It’s part research, part experiment, part existential therapy session with your favorite UX nerds.

Quote of the episode: “Compliment, don’t replace research.”

So grab your French press, pet your dog, and join us for a conversation about the real future of user research—where some of your users might not technically exist, but their insights sure do.

Yippee-ki-yay, designers! In this action-packed finale to our Laws of UX trilogy, Jason Moore and Ephie Risho are storming the Nakatomi Plaza of complexity. Armed with Occam’s Razor and a stubborn refusal to overcomplicate things, they’re taking on 12 more laws that’ll help you design faster, cleaner, and smarter—no explosions required (well, maybe just conceptual ones).

In this final installment of their Laws of UX trilogy, they deep-dive into the remaining 12 laws that shape how humans interact with design. From Occam’s Razor (simpler really is better) to the Pareto Principle (that magical 80/20 rule that does 80% of the heavy lifting), to Tesler’s Law (complexity never truly disappears—it just moves around), they unpack how to make your designs smoother, smarter, and more trustworthy.

Learn how to eliminate friction without killing functionality, how to design for the inevitable human oops, and why great UX is equal parts logic and empathy. Because sometimes, life (and design) moves pretty fast—if you don’t stop and reflect on the Laws of UX, you could miss it.

Listen now — your users will thank you 80% of the time, guaranteed.

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.
