Hour 1:  Russia is deep inside the American political process.

Richard Stiennon is an internationally recognized expert on Cyber Security and published author. We asked him how deep the problem of Russian hacking went  in the American presidential race and some of the consequences of this blatant “meddling” in the choice of our next leader.  Some of his answers may surprise you and the depth to which the Russians have penetrated the American political machine.  As Vladimir Putin (pictured above) boasted, “It’s bigger than Watergate!” referring to the email leads from the Clinton campaign that the Russians have appeared to have engineered with …

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”13145″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Due to circumstances well beyond our control, this podcast was not edited and posted until Monday night, Oct 10! Everything from a failed macOS Sierra install to doctor’s appointments and a Sunday with three full meetings conspired to delay the release of this great show.

BUT there was a silver lining to the show.  Ed, Cal and Foster got to do a real live podcast! ie. they got to take their time discussing a variety of topics and bantering back and forth with their opinions.  Normally we bring you guest commentators on subjects and let them be the focus while our tech experts, along with Gary and Foster, question them about topic. We felt it was high time that you got to enjoy the quick wit and broad experience of our two top tech experts.  So we hope that you enjoy this special edition of the Internet Advisor.

Saturday, Oct. 15 we will return to our normal pattern of inviting guest hosts and experts on various topics in our first hour and focusing on your question in the second hour with Ed and Cal taking the podium.  We will be preempted again by an afternoon …

Evaluating The Apple iPhone 7…Keeping Up With the Red Dwarf…Shane’s Games

[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

On Wednesday, Sept. 7, Apple released the most leaked product ever: iPhone 7 and 7+.  Was it worth the wait?  Was it REALLY a “courageous” move to take away the headphone jack and replace it with wireless headphones that cost $129 separately?! Did Apple “jump the shark” or are we looking at some really significant advances. Hmm…this is sounding like a presidential debate outline!
