The Annual Airing of Grievances [Bonus Episode] | The PetaPixel Podcast
Surprise! The PetaPixel Podcast team got together one more time for the true Season 4 finale! Grab a glass of eggnog, don your Santa hats, and pull the pole out from the crawlspace, because it’s time for the annual airing of grievances!
Do you ever get tired of manually searching for, organizing, and culling your images? We do, too, and that’s where Excire can help!
Excire’s photo-management software harnesses AI to make tedious tasks 10x faster, easier, and more fun. Thanks to Excire, you can easily get your images organized, stay on top of culling, and instantly find any photo in your catalog—so you can spend less time managing your images and more time doing what you love!
And since the AI runs locally on your computer, you’ll never have to worry about privacy or security. Best of all, Excire can be integrated seamlessly into your current workflow, either using the standalone image organizer, Excire Foto 2025, or the Lightroom Classic plugin, Excire Search 2026.

For those who are unfamiliar, the airing of grievances is a reference to Festivus, a made-up holiday from the television show Seinfeld.
This week on the Season 4 Finale of the PetaPixel Podcast, the team airs their grievances not at each other, but at the companies and organizations they work with. Plus, we know we’ve been behind, but we’re finally catching up on Tech Support.
