It's been a busy month, but we're finally back on the horse. On this episode we talk about Owen getting into crypto, and what's going on with the craze, the iPhone's Face ID "issues" plus how Apple's shady dealings with battery + performance might hurt for a long time.

We talk about some very exciting Charged news, and a secret just for you... oh and technology, like Tesla's insane cash burn, Uber's cover up, AI and how everyone can't stop talking about Bitcoin.

A very special edition of Charged Tech, our first ever full episode with a guest: Rod Drury, CEO of Xero, joins us to talk about the iPhone X, where Apple's at, HomePod, the ecosystem's cracks, being Pixel curious and NZ's super speedy internet. Back to the usual schedule from this weekend!

This week on Charged Tech Podcast John and Owen debate the implications of one employee banning Trump from Twitter for 11 minutes, the Russian Facebook tampering aaaaand what you've all been waiting for: a giant discussion about the now released iPhone X.

It's the episode you've been waiting for: Owen attends the Google Pixel event IRL in San Francisco, then reports back on what he thinks – as well as a longer discussion about people who keep saying VR is dead. Much much more on this episode and we're super sorry it took so long!

This week John and Owen discuss Apple's September event, and you might be surprised by how closely we agree the iPhone X is a bastion of the future where computers can see the world, not just take photos. That, and lots of discussion about the weird CCleaner hack, e-SIM cards and more! Show notes at chargedpodcast.com

This week, a huuuuge discussion about how Apple, Amazon and other technology companies are fighting it out for the rights to your favorite movies (specifically James Bond right now). That, and self-driving car legislation passing the house unanimously, China's full-on ICO ban and how a software engineer hacked a real headphone jack onto the iPhone 7. Sorry for the crap audio quality, John had his microphone backwards ;). Show notes at https://chargedpodcast.com

OK, this isn't really an Apple episode, but there's a great discussion about the next iPhone and what it means for the company at the end. But, we also talk about Waymo's self-driving heaven and how it's teaching cars to see, shark detecting drones and a whole lot more! Sorry we didn't publish one for a while — we're back at it now!

​​This week we hung out on YouTube with our listeners and recorded Charged Tech episode 50! It was fun, and way more random than normal ​so listen in and see how it went. There's talk about Snap's terrible stock price, Hyperloop and Owen's weird VR experience. Watch the video instead at chargedpodcast.com!

This week on Charged, we discuss how Ethereum got stolen by the millions in just one day, and how it's probably not the future of cryptocurrencies. That, and why we think health wearables are bullshit, and whether or not remote work is something that people \*really\* should be doing or not. Full show notes at http://chargedpodcast.com.
