Dan, Lex and I provide our hot takes on Apple’s announcement piping fresh from our mouths.

Evil Apple trying to make a buck by forcing people to… wait.

I’ve taken a liking to leather cases since I last owned this form factor so I’ll be buying a new case anyway, but it’s nice to know my plastic shell cases from two years ago will fit in a pinch.

Microsoft is clearly in the throes of doing some soul-searching on the sexism in Xbox games. Having picked a naked woman as the persona for its voice software hasn’t quite helped, but I guess at least they’re trying to now makes some changes.

I really think we could have gone longer on ice cream in this episode. I mean, we are so much more than just another tech podcast.

The New York State Attorney General in 2013, chastising Apple and other smartphone makers:

No Lex this week so Jon and I dissect some movie trailers and then talk about civics.

That’s a lot of “view”. But over at Macworld, I review the latest View-Master and find myself getting nauseated while looking at swimsuit models.

I joined John Gruber on this week’s edition of The Talk Show to discuss that Apple FBI thing you might have heard of as well as Firewatch and other topics of note.

Sometimes it’s the links we don’t include in the show notes that you’ll be glad about.
