Come for the tech news and commentary, cadets, but stay for the sheer fanboy-ishness on display as we save the end of the episode for Doctor Who, Star Trek(s), Foudation and Dune ... it's a geekout freakout this week!

Our unique overage of Apple's "Unleashed" event, which saw the introduction of the AirPods 3, color options for the HomePod mini, a new Apple Music "Siri" $5/month tier, and the long-awaited redesign, M1 Pro/Max chips and other related changes to the MacBook Pro line.

Of course we'll have a Special Report on Apple's October Event available for your debriefing later today/early tomorrow, cadets, but we can't resist our chance to be wrong (just like the big-time pundits!) PLUS all the usual news and nonsense. Listen now, get some rest, and listen some more in the world of tomorrow!

Checking our predictions, making fun of the pundits, rounding up the actual announcements (and what didn't get announced), plus some tidbits unearthed after the event, plus some other relevant news!

Apple beats Epic on nine out of 10 counts, some big but unconfirmed stories, some deception and lies, and the rest of what's happening in tech news this week, plus: Mike's and Charles' predictions on the Tuesday event -- they're (slightly) different!
