Old Guys with Glasses

We welcome special guest the Spaz, dive into a beer discussion and revisit an episode from last year at Saucony Creek. Next, the guys discuss Elon Musk's pronunciation that we are living in an simulation which leads to another conversation about the show WestWorld and where we are in robot evolution.  We then attempt a SIRI vs google now comparison, wind down with a recap of the Samsung exploding phone debacle then finish with app of the week.

Pokey and Lupine return from their completed hike up the Appalachian Trail to tell the guys all about it. 

The guys start off the show with a recap our podcast history and their pending Square Space renewal. 

  They then tumble into discussion about using Apple Pay/NFC instead of the chip on new credit/debit cards; then fumble through how to use SIRI to send money.

  Next, T-Bone states he has finally figured out what Twitter is for which leads to talk about how social media has been tainted by the contentious political season.

T-Bone explains the drum core world in light of new documentary produced by Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson and talk of the new HBO show Westworld flows into riff on artificial intelligence, where we are at with computing and where we're going, and how those pesky ethernet cables fit in.

T-Bone, Bubb and Cho start the show off with a discussion about the fall and the trials of being a stay at home dad. They then discuss their experiences with the new iPhone 7 and dig deep into the new camera features. 

After a short recap of apps inside of Messages, the guys discuss using the watch to unlock the Mac and what computer Bubb should get next, which leads into a riff on the end of using physical media.

 They round out the show with talk about Apple releasing an Echo competitor, other potential new hardware on the horizon and after app of the week, Bubb begs the guys to stay after the show
