The writers behind this newsletter.
I write The Shortcut, a Substack newsletter that's meant to simplify your life. I'm here to tell you what tech to buy and how to save money and time.

A technology journalist since 2015. Find me listening to Frank Sinatra, floating in a kayak, or embarking on a quest through the written word (a.k.a. reading a book).
As Creative Director I oversee all video content on The Shortcut's YouTube and social channels and dabble in some editorial writing too. Catch me on X and Instagram @baggingpsam.
Reece Bithrey is a journalist with credits in Trusted Reviews, Digital Foundry, PC Gamer, TechRadar and more. He also has his own blog, UNTITLED and graduated from the University of Leeds with a degree in International History and Politics in 2023.
