This week, Will is joined by Noah Dentzel, CEO and co-founder of Nomad, and Harvey Hunerberg, Associate Director of Product Management at Nomad, to discuss their company\u2019s new expansion into Pixel accessories, beginning with Pixel Watch straps. From the decision to launch accessories for Pixel after primarily focusing on the Apple ecosystem to how tariffs affect companies like Nomad, it\u2019s a pretty fun \u2014 if in-depth \u2014 conversation. Plus, Will gets to nerd out on just how excited he is for a Qi2-dominant world, and we get a quick tease for what could be next from Nomad.<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe<\/p>\n<p>Timestamps<\/p>\n<p>00:00 \u2013 Intro<\/p>\n<p>00:33 \u2013 Expanding into Pixel Watch bands<\/p>\n<p>13:07 \u2013 Why Google?<\/p>\n<p>21:45 \u2013 The flexibility of power accessories<\/p>\n<p>27:22 \u2013 Magnetic backplates<\/p>\n<p>29:43 \u2013 Tariffs<\/p>\n<p>34:24 \u2013 Wrap-up and Nomad teaser<\/p>\n<p>Hosts<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/author\/willsattelberg\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Will Sattelberg<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Noah Dentzel, CEO and co-founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/nomadgoods.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nomad<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Harvey Hunerberg, Associate Director of Product Management at <a href=\"https:\/\/nomadgoods.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nomad<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Listen to more 9to5 Podcasts<\/p>\n<p>Feedback?<\/p>\n<p>Drop us a line at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2025\/09\/02\/the-sideload-002-talking-pixel-watch-bands-and-qi2-with-nomad\/mailto:gtips@9to5g.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">gtips@9to5g.com<\/a>, leave a comment on the post, or reach out to our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2025\/09\/02\/the-sideload-002-talking-pixel-watch-bands-and-qi2-with-nomad\/mailto:will@9to5mac.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">producer<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/google.com\/preferences\/source?q=https:\/\/9to5google.com\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"google-preferred-source-badge-dark\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google-preferred-source-badge-dark.png\" alt=\"Add 9to5Google as a preferred source on Google\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"google-preferred-source-badge-light\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google-preferred-source-badge-light.png\" alt=\"Add 9to5Google as a preferred source on Google\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"disclaimer-affiliate\">FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links. <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/about\/#affiliate\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">More.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/47Ewtp0\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-685624\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/08-19-Pixel-10-Series-Ghost-Banner.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"140\"\/><\/a>\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Welcome to episode 2 of The Sideload, a podcast by 9to5Google.
