| 5/19/26 | Android is the frontier for agents and other lessons from Google I/O | Matthew McCullough | With Google I/O 2026 underway this week, Andrew sits down with Matthew McCullough, VP of Android Development Experiences at Google, to talk about the AI evolution happening across the Android ecosystem. Matthew shares his insights on why developers are rapidly transitioning into agent orchestrators, why CLIs are cool again, and how tools like AI Studio have rolled out a massive welcome banner for anyone to actively participate in the creation process. Finally, the two explore the future of mo... | 27m 10s | ||||||
| 5/15/26 | Agents get their own AOL, Andrew gets published, and vibe coding is actually good? | Is vibe coding actually good now? This week on The Friday Deploy, Andrew and Ben explore the convergence of vibe coding and agentic engineering, unpack the decline of the traditional technical interview, and discuss why companies like Warp are prioritizing AI prototypes over planning meetings. They also celebrate Andrew's newly published research on "mise en place" context engineering. Finally, they break down the enterprise AI "last mile" crisis and share how they are using personal knowledg... | 40m 58s | ||||||
| 5/12/26 | It’s Tuesday and your tech stack is obsolete (again). Now what? | Theory Venture’s Bryan Bischof | Does it feel like your favorite AI tool is declared dead one week, only to be resurrected the next? This week, Andrew sits down with Bryan Bischof, Head of AI at Theory Ventures, to explore the hidden levers of inference systems and the industry's obsession with prematurely writing off useful tools. Bryan shares his experiences with why prompt optimization is mostly a dead end, the secret to building high-performing data agents, and how his team builds operational software for VCs. The two al... | 55m 52s | ||||||

| 3/20/26 | Sloppypasta culprits, unpacking MCP’s spotlight, and Anthropic wants your agents to work the graveyard shift | Are rolling token blackouts and late-night AI coding shifts about to become the new normal for developers? This week on the Friday Deploy, Andrew and Ben explore the shifting economics of AI compute before debating whether the Model Context Protocol (MCP) was fundamentally overhyped. The hosts also dive into "context anchoring" to prevent model compaction during long coding sessions, why optimizing the wrong bottlenecks makes AI an amplifier for bad processes, and the nostalgic resurgence of ... | 31m 52s | ||||||

Andrew sits down with Chainguard CEO Dan Lorenc to discuss the severe supply chain risks of this new frontier and what it takes to safely transition to an agent-first engineering model. They explore how engineering teams can safely accelerate deployments by turning restrictive guardrails into frictionless "guide rails" for their AI agents. Finally, the conversa... | 39m 57s | ||||||
| 3/13/26 | Inference is the new 401k matching and what we’re learning from AI-related outages | Are we heading toward a bizarre future where your engineering salary is paid in AI compute tokens instead of cash?

They also break down Charlie Guo's harness engineering playbook, the growing pains behind recent AWS AI-driven outages, and the toxic pressure to constantly run dozens of autonomous agents. Finally, th... | 21m 49s | ||||||
| 3/10/26 | Your engineers need an AI control plane, not more tools | Guild.ai’s James Everingham | Right now, a lot of engineering leaders are stuck in the same loop: rolling out AI tools only to watch their teams quietly drift back to business as usual. Andrew sits down with James Everingham, former Head of Dev Infra at Meta and current CEO of guild.ai, to discuss how to break this cycle by treating AI not just as an autocomplete tool, but as a "sentient fabric" woven directly into your software development lifecycle. They explore how replacing top-down AI mandates with impossible b... | 40m 08s | ||||||

| 2/24/26 | Your keyboard is the real bottleneck | Wispr’s Sahaj Garg | Your keyboard is the biggest bottleneck in your engineering workflow. This week, Andrew sits down with Wispr co-founder and CTO Sahaj Garg to discuss why traditional voice dictation failed us, and how his team is rebuilding trust by using contextual models to capture a developer's raw intent rather than treating speech models as "dumb" tools that just produce literal transcripts. Together, they explore the engineering hurdles of translating a messy stream of consciousness into perfectly forma... | 37m 33s | ||||||
