Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Jim Rea, Eric Bolden, Jeff Gamet, and Web Bixby do something a little different in this MacVoices Live! session. With slow tech news and the writer’s strike in full swing, the panel provides some suggestions on shows and movies they have enjoy and can recommend to fill the gaps…and there are definitely some surprises.
