So we go right from house colonoscopies (you had to be there) to talking about recent changes in laws surrounding privacy in certain countries. New bumpers from Karl Madden (Mac Forth Podcast) are freaking great. Only about 5 more podcasts to get your bumpers in for the contest!
So there's a new 16 inch MacBook Pro but the GMen completely ignore it because frankly, EVERYONE else was talking about it already. Instead they talk about the Goldman Sachs algorithm used to determine credit worthiness for the Apple Card. Sound boring? Is this your first time here?
With all the changes in Apple over the last few years, their BIG growth hasn't been with phones or computers, but with services and the bottom line is starting to reflect that. The GMen have a lengthy discussion about that and naturally resolve the entire issue...sure we did.
Missed last week by accident so we make up for this week with shenanigans and tomfoolery and dare you to tell the difference! Actually lots of tech talk about Gaz's travels to various Apple Stores and Guy's dentistry whoas, AirPods Pros, and holy guacamole, LOT's of operating system updates
10 weeks to go to the 500th podcast! Get your bumpers in for your chance to win a $25 Apple gift card! Oh, we also talk about some stuff, because that's what we do.
Guy is back from Texas and Gaz is ready to to multi-task with podcasts. The big question, should you go ahead and upgrade to macOS Catalina or hold off until it's more mature along with any apps that aren't ready for prime time.
So Guy called me 5 mins before the podcast to say that he wanted to be known by another name today so as per his request I’d like to say hi to Karl. We discuss Apple Arcade and also what we think Apple might bring to another event, that is if they have one.
This refers to Guy installing and playing with macOS Catalina and not a general statement about the GMen and their work ethics...though it could be. Some new stuff and new problems with various Apple gear fill out the remainder of the show and one VERY generous PayPal person.
iOS 13 is out and the GMen have things to way about it. Also Apple Arcade can now be experienced but just on the smallest possible screen. They both also probably want new iPhones, but won't admit it.
Disasterish birthday and crappy vaca plus too bust at work makes Guy a sad boy, but Gaz and Apple is here to cheer him up with new stuff...that he doesn't want to buy. The GMen talk a lot about that Apple event because that's what they do.

He spent more trying to leave however than he did actually IN Florida and his weird adventure is all laid out here. Gaz is happy Guy is back because that means he doesn't have to do a solo show. Our listeners are happy because...because...well, they MUST be happy about something.
The show nearly didn’t happen in fact Gaz called out on the Twitters and on Facebook that there would be no show, but this is the show that is and not the show that isn’t. Gaz got his stuff together well as much as he could and put a short something together for your ears.
The show was almost called something else, but Guy was too confused to do it right, so Gaz rolled his eyes and left it alone. Knob is actually a Bluetooth exploit that Apple has patched, but you still shouldn't be complacent about it. Gaz's iMac is also still not at all well, so he's using an old Mac mini that doesn't have his stuff just as Guy announces his latest trip to somewhere else.
What do you get when Apple tells you everything is just fine with your hardware but it still isn’t working? A computer that still isn’t working. In this case, it's Gaz's iMac that has a list of potential issues.
Getting excited for the new Apple Credit Card, but first the GMen need to get through some odd stories concerning the demise of pets. Why? If you have to ask...
