The "Gig Economy" is growing every year, with ridesharing services like Uber and Lyft representing a large segment. If you drive for one of these services, you want to utilize every advantage to maximize your earnings in a crowded (or not crowded, for that matter) market. On this episode, I drive for both Uber and Lyft while testing two third-party "Hotspot" apps. These apps claim to inform drivers where to go in order to enjoy the most business. Do they work? Let's find out. Along the way, you'll learn some tips and tricks to being a rideshare driver.

Here's links to the apps tested in this episode:

Even though Steve Jobs passed in 2011, there's certain things he'd only let Apple do over his dead body. Today in 2019, here's four things Apple's doing that Steve would have HATED! 

1. Apple TV without having to buy Apple TV device!

2. Apple now has native Bluetooth support for Playstation & Xbox game controllers!

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210414?cid=tw_sc_arcade_100519

3. My circa 2013 MacBook Pro runs the latest macOS operating system!

4. There is no "killer app" that makes Apple Watch a must-own. (Prove me wrong!)
