I keep up with current events in several ways. I regularly scroll through Twitter to get quick updates on breaking news and trending topics. I also enjoy listening to "The Daily" podcast, which provides an in-depth look at one important story each day. Additionally, when I have time in the morning I try to read newspapers to get a more comprehensive view of the day's events from reputable news sources.

Yeah I skim TechCrunch's headlines most mornings to stay in the loop on the latest tech news and funding rounds. For broader trends and analysis pieces, a16z's content blog & Stratechery are my go-tos. Twitter lists curating top folks in my areas of interest have also been invaluable for surfacing novel takes & developments in real-time.

Techcrunch is great for headlines but I prefer a mix of trusted sources - WSJ, NYTimes, BBC for deeper coverage. Also a big fan of newsletters like Morning Brew and The Hustle for quick bites and unique perspectives. Twitter Lists are super useful too for curating feeds around specific topics and thought leaders. And of course, can't forget good ol' word of mouth from my network!
