MODERATORS
Google employee 1: We made podcasts in Play Music better and adoption went up again.
Google manager: Oh, that's neat. I'll make a bullet point on this week's team meeting.
Google employee 2: We spent many millions on a new podcast app and servers, engineering, data migration, PR, integrations ~~and adoption is lower. Actually, nobody wanted it or cares or likes it.~~
Google VP: Everyone this can't fail. Pick the best looking metrics, prepare a series of announcements and get ready for a wave of promotions and it's all thanks to this superstar manager who's definitely getting a huge bonus and double promotion so I can spin this like it was a win. The best part? Get ready for a repeat when we replace this again in 2 to 3 years.
