Basketball jones, part I. Also fairy tale spoilers, Mike's move, and more.

Cookie Monster pitches Siri, old encryption, and Kelly teases a new podcast! Plus a now sadly outdated but still intriguing discussion of Apple's battle with the FBI over encryption.

Vacation time! Mike takes us to Disney World, with a detour to Universal Studios.

Do you ever have deja vu, Mrs. Lancaster? This week, Mike and Kelly share their Groundhog Day favorites (including the New York Public Library's collection of viviparous quadrupeds and a quick cameo from White Collar's Willie Garson). Plus, did you ever get immunized against Pac-Man Fever? How about Dreamcastaires Disease? PONG SARS? We want to hear about your #GameConsoleMaladies on Twitter. Oh, and there's also some discussion of Apple and Alphabet financial results (hat tip to Farhad Manjoo).

Closing music via 8-Bit Classical. Recommended Twitter/Tumblr of the fortnight: @BatLabels. We could use a visit from the ANTI-LUNATIC SQUAD. Buy your HENCHMAN shirt!

Kelly and Mike do a deep dive into USB audio interfaces, TUAW nostalgia, Macworld Expos past, and try to explain why people are famous to one another on the Internet.

Special guest mentions! Javier Grillo-Marxuach, Veronica Belmont and Naomi Novik. (Special guest mentions do not appear on the show in person.)

If you have a XLR->USB recommendation for Kelly (like the Blue Icicle) please tell Kelly!

A little CES preview, a little Pacific Northwest weather, and Kelly's advice for visiting Disney theme parks. (Apologies for Mike's audio quality -- he may in fact have been using his iMac mic by mistake.)

Our first annual gift guide! And everyone's stuffy again. Gifts and products linked below.

Mike finds out the perils of recording a podcast within earshot of an Amazon Echo. Also, first impressions of the new Apple TV. Plus, our first contest! "Lord UI Executioner": give us your best Gilbert and Sullivan Apple-themed parody song titles with the hashtag #AppleGandS. Best entries featured on a future show.

Here's the Star Wars/vaccinate your kids poster from Dan's Parents' House: -- we're waiting for Kelly to find the Sesame Street photo.

Bonus: after the show, we determined that Kelly had never seen the wonderfulness that is This Charming Charlie, the Peanuts + Morrissey/Smiths mashup Tumblr that is among the best things on the Internet. This week's show has a TCC comic as episode art; go check it out at http://thischarmingcharlie.tumblr.com/.

The geek is strong with this one: Kelly delivers the two-thumbs-up verdict on her new iPhone 6S. Plus a visit to scenic Natural Scrolling Valley, how UX breadcrumbs don't actually do what they did in Hansel & Gretel, the secrets of 3D Touch ("it's like right-clicking for your phone!") and Mike's report from Dreamforce.

If you like the show, let us know! Our promise to you: we thank all iTunes reviewers by name.
