🎧 Episode 3 – Why UX > UI (And No, They’re Not the Same)

Are UX and UI just two sides of the same coin? Or are they fundamentally different? In this episode, we're cutting through the confusion to explain why User Experience (UX) and User Interface (UI) are distinct disciplines – and why understanding this difference is crucial for any successful product. We'll explore why the 'engine' often matters more than the 'paint job,' and how prioritizing UX leads to better business outcomes.

🚗 Expect analogies involving cars, coffee machines, and real-world examples from everyday tech.

💡 Plus: the surprising history of the 'undo' button, a deep dive into Airbnb's UX success story, and a clear explanation of why good UX means big returns on investment.

Whether you're new to design or a seasoned pro, this episode will equip you with a clearer understanding of these vital concepts and why one often takes precedence in creating truly impactful products.
