Geekiest Show Ever 300 – How did we get here?

| Tim Robertson

On this noteworthy episode, Tim Robertson, founder of the Stoplight/MyMac networks and creator of Geekiest Show Ever joins to celebrate our 300th episode. We talk about the history of the show and its inspirations and, as always, we do veer off in other directions. Topics discussed are: video, pinball and arcade games, brain farts on other podcasts that we can’t quite remember (Google ain’t it wonderful?), women on the internet, and just some general reminiscing.

Track Talk episode with Tim’s Def Leppard review.

Geekiest Show Ever 299 – Facetime the Music

| Tim Robertson

As an experiment we record the podcast in Facetime, let us know what you think. We did have some bandwidth issues so some of the audio is choppy in spots.

Elisa (the last hold out) finally upgrade to Mojave she tells us about her experience, likes and dislikes.

From there we talk about Apple Music coming to the Amazon Echo. This then turns into a discussion of the different music services and which ones we like and why.

For our picks we start with Elissa who wants a Accuvoice AV200 Tv Speaker with hearing aid Technology.   Next Mike wants to listen to music and maybe hear better so he was looking at the HUB: HiFi Wireless Earbuds. Finally Melissa wants to closely inspect things so she picked the AmScope SE400-Z Professional Binocular Stereo Microscope.

Geekiest Show Ever 295 – Wandering in the Desert

| Tim Robertson

After we decide whether or not we like the weather (we don’t) we discuss the new Mojave update to MacOS. Mike is the only one who has updated but personally it’s kind of a mixed bag for him (your mileage may vary). Then Elisa wants to know if the Apple Watch knows you’re in a moving car (we’re not sure).

After that we move on to our picks. Melissa finds a nice little band for the Apple Watch. Then Elisa has a Lego Advent Calendar. Finally Mike thinks he finds a solution to his problem until he realizes he doesn’t but still thinks the Netreset Smart Power Recycler is a solution for some people.
