E018 - Google Tasks Update, Voice Issue Alerts, Vault for Sites, External emails tagging, Return to work, and much more

So nice to see Google Tasks getting some love, as they are one of the most underrated features in Workspace. This week we had a bit of drama in the tech news and a bit of drama around the external email tagging feature showing up before it was officially announced.

In the second half of the episode, Steve and Jesse talk about Google's new designs for returning to a newly hybrid environment, and how wacky some of those designs are. Enjoy!
