Just to get the 1 star fresh. There are so many offensively annoying that play immediately when the episode starts, no intro, no what’s on this episode just ads that are so low quality that local radio stations charge less than $200 for spots every 15 minutes. Not only that these play every few minutes and just interrupts mid word. This is the most amateur apple related podcast, scratch that one of the most amateur overall podcast. This is a crowded space and this show adds nothing but regurgita... more
Hartley is one of the best out there! That’s why I’m sorry Dan still hosts (baffling, maddening); you deserve better H.
It’s been one of the favourite Apple podcasts. But lately there are so many ads it’s turning me off. It used to be my first Apple podcast I’d listen to. Now it’s closer to my last. I’m of with ADs. But you lads have 2 types. The dynamics ones are so random. Please knock the dynamics on the head.

I am all for creators getting paid for their work although sponsee reads plus external advertising ever few minutes makes this podcast... more
The iPhone Air should be the base model. I know people who just want a simple phone and maybe a camera. This would also be a great option for young people and seniors who do not want or need a lot of fancy features - just a phone and maybe something to text. It should replace the iPhone E and the (regular) iPhone would be second, with the Pros rounding out the lineup.
In regards to Apple Fitness +, I use it almost daily. I agree that I have my favorite trainers. I like Hartley’s thoughts in ... more
