MyMac.com Podcast

Even for us this was an unusual show. It didn't seem lie it was going to be, but with the GMen you kinda get what you get. Our actual serious discussion is about conflicting tones in Apple's description of whether or not they can or could or would be able to read or intercept (not the same thing) your texts in iMessage. Gaz's Tips turns into a bit of a controversy over UK and US based keyboards and the People's Pick does something, we're just not exactly sure what it is.

Guy has his new iPhone 5S so everyone should be pleased that he'll stop whining about it now. Gaz is VERY unhappy with iTunes and podcasts so we can rant about that. However he did make a framed picture so less unhappy. Not sure what the scale would be between happy or not at this point. Businesses in general seem to be pretty happy with iOS so that's a good thing as lot's of companies want to cater to that market. Gaz and Guy break it down a bit and say why in their opinion it's the better platform than other mobile devices.

What does the English vs American way of saying deep fried thin potato slices, a 1950's era western satire, the possession of current mobile phones, a conversation of potential new features in an operating system, and the regretted consumption of iced tea flavored vodka drinks have in common? This podcast

So STILL no new iPhones for either GMan, but it's looking like Gaz will get his first. Not that Guy is bitter or anything. They can't remember what the bet was they made that if Guy loses, Gaz punches him in the nose so Guy lucks out there. A discussion into what the next iPad might be like and then it ALL goes wrong in a hilarious way.

It seems both GMen are getting new iPhones. Guy will be seeing his probably sooner than Gaz due to Apple's unofficial US first policy. Gaz has a tale of woe about Apple's AppleTV update which seems to have disappeared. They talk about some of their likes and dislikes about iOS 7 and if you like the after show stuff, you'll LOVE this episode! Big thanks to all our G+ fans for all their contributions.

It's almost all about the new phones. Guy doesn't necessarily want one as his 4S is still working well, but ropes his son into the equation so he (sigh) has no choice. Gaz wants one now because of the better camera but ALSO wants a new iPad Mini that he has no choice about either because his family is always (sigh) on the full sized one. What are GMen to do except just bite the bullet and (sigh) go ahead and buy new iPhones. Because they really have no choice as was reasoned above.

Guy is in Florida and Gaz is joined by Bart Busschots, the normal items remain with lots of G+ chat and a few MyMac articles discussed. There’s a middle section where we have a chat about moving from iPhoto to Aperture or maybe another programme. Now will Guy be back next week who’s knows maybe he’ll come back with a tan and pictures of him standing on a board.

OK Gaz is BACK and the tow GMen will NEVER ever take a week off again! Until next week when Guy won't be here. Never mind great, very eclectic kind of show this week. Guy and Gaz talk about Fiji, Florida, Surfing, new kids on the block at G+, the ways our great listeners think we can improve the show, amongst many topics. Guy finished out his conversation with Erick Diaz (thanks again Erick!) from last week talking about what they think is coming up at Apple's next event, and so much more!

Gaz takes off a week so Guy ropes in Erick Diaz, a long time listener and contributor to all things great and wonderful about the MyMac Podcast. They have a great conversation about Apple buying Matcha, what the AppleTV could be like if content providers had brains, and much more!

Hoo HAH! A longer than usual podcast which is great for some of you and not great for others. Sorry or congratulations are in order for either one reason or the other. However it is just smack dab filled with Gaz and Guy shenanigans and tomfoolery. We talk about Google adding ads to their Map application in iOS because apparently that's what they think people want and what Guy and Gaz are looking forward to in OS X Mavericks when Apple releases it.
