  • Great podcast - please lose the politics

    This is a really good podcast to keep you up to date on Apple stuff. They need to keep it 100% technology and lose all mention of politics. I’ve left so many Apple info podcasts when they started talking politics or pronouns. There are plenty of podcasts if that’s what you want. I came her for Apple info. I shouldn’t be able to tell which side of the political aisle you are on based on this podcast, yet I can.

  • Great Apple insight

    This podcast is amazing. The second it comes out every week, I listen to it as fast as possible. Also, when do you think the M5 Mac mini will be released? And will it be worth the upgrade? Thanks for making this podcast every week. It’s a highlight of my week.

  • Great Podcast!

    I love listening to this podcast. Although I am only 15, I find it very interesting and thought-provoking. It’s my favourite podcast! I also like the structure and how the deeper topics are nearer the beginning/middle whereas the fun/lighter parts are at the end to finish. I also love the dynamic between Wes and William.

  • iPhone upgrade decision

    Hey so I’m the now 14 year old listener and I need advice to upgrade. I have a 14 pro so I am trying to take priority and upgrade to one of the 17 models to get Apple Intelligence when the next generation model comes out and the new silicone, Ceramic Shield, action button and/or camera button, and all the new stuff. Not the e for sure but because the base model is so close to the main model it made me think… maybe it is ok to do the base model even though this phone I will hold onto for maybe 4 ... more
