Cool Stuff (and Jeff Gamet) Found! — Mac Geek Gab 925

Listen Later

Jeff Gamet joins John and Dave today to share all kinds of Cool Stuff Found with you. Categories range from MagSafe car mounts to mechanical keyboards, to USB adapters and more. Listen to your three favorite geeks have their minds blown by a listener submission about Remote Access, and then there are all the tangents, which you’re simply going to love. Press play and enjoy learning no-less-than five new things (and probably a LOT more). Also, we’re sorry about your wallets… we know these CSF episodes can get expensive, but we made sure to include lots of free stuff this week, too!
