I also have a giant beanbag, which is not good for working, but is very good for everything else.
I have an iPhone SE, which I love so much because it has lots of memory but is also still bitsy enough that I can hold it in my hand, which is what I thought cell phones were for BUT APPARENTLY NOT ANYMORE.
I have bought maybe fifteen pairs of these Panasonic in-ear headphones over the years.
I also have an Alexa, which I use mostly to ask it to play Jeopardy with me, and a shower speaker for, you know, shower-podcasts.
Oh, and a Kindle because I love real books and Kindle books and ALL BOOKS IN EVERY FORM.
Communication
We also use Slack to complain about everything to each other, because in truth comedy is mostly artful complaining.
Productivity
Other than that, I use Google Docs for literally everything.
Notes
Coding & Development
Media
I got the Mac at home because I thought I was going to learn how to use Garageband for a musical I'm writing.
Other
At the office, we use a program called Scripto, which is specifically for writing late night shows.
