Flipping Tables

Apple's WWDC event happened and that means Lyons and Mike are here to pick it apart! We also pour one out for the Apple TV that wasn't. Also: somehow we found a way to bash Microsoft and we feel appropriately contrite about it.

Mike learns sneezes can be forced. Lyons has a magical Uber experience. And oh yeah, Google I/O 2015 happened! Lots of amazing tech, and more steps to return to the true developer conference Google I/O is supposed to be.

Lyons is living the fingerprint unlock life. Smartstraps try to make Smartwatches smarter. Podcasts are coming to Spotify, but only if you're a special snowflake. The Void is VR 'laser tag on steroids' and Nintendo is making theme park rides for Universal Studios!

Followup inception creates its own followup. Microsoft proves old habits die hard while Apple creates a web crawling bot. 3D printing is even more amazing than we thought. And what is up with this Spiderman toy?

Lyons finds his place outside the modder community. Konami's Playable Teaser disappears from the PlayStation store. Kickstarter is sometimes great but other times it just funds mojitos. And a gamer beats Mega Man X and X2 at the same time on the same controller.

Mike and Lyons gush about hardware. Valve apologizes for paid mods on Steam. Tons of awesome (and skepticism) came out of Microsoft Build. Elon Musk and Tesla are trying to save the world. And Mike is delighted by Miyamoto being delighted.

Lyons gets called out on geek naming sins. Google fi is happening and all the rumors were true. Google Contributor is happening and Mike is unsure if it’ll take hold. Are there too many hamburger menus in apps and at Burger King? And Mike’s first days with the Apple Watch.

Pseudojustin of The Pseudo Show joins us to talk making saving money as easy as the Amazon Dash Button makes spending it. Reddit has their own Button. Lyons admits he's hooked on HBO Now. The BB-8 droid from Star Wars is real(ish). Info about Google's cell service is leaked. And the FCC is unsurprisingly being sued over net neutrality.

The Grid wants to make web design algorithmic. The Basilisk wants to make managing humanity algorithmic. Adobe refuses to buy TLDs defensively. And Mike tried on an Apple Watch and has some things to say about supposedly 'intuitive' interfaces.

John Oliver and Edward Snowden make the American people care about government surveillance with dick pics. Nintendo continues to hate people who advertise their products for them. Amazon brings 1-click ordering to your house. And someone staples a gameboy camera to a handgun.
