MyMac Podcast 1000: No, no, a thousand times no!
Against the better judgement of most of the civilized world, the MyMac podcast has been afflicted…wait…no, endured beyond anyone’s reasonable expectations. ANYONE’S expectations, but never mind that, Guy and Gaz are still here to deliver the hard hitting and intelligent Apple analysis…sis…sigh that we do nearly every week since 2010 and we hope you’ll join us on our countdown to show TWO thousand!

MyMac Podcast 984: Apple Makes Money
Apple’s 3rd quarter results are in and to no one’s surprise, Apple made a lot of money. Maybe the surprise is where they made it as much as how they made it. Also, we haven’t talked about it much, but our 700th show is just 1 show away. Anything you want us to talk about? Let us know or we’ll just drone on as usual. And of course thank you Karl for stepping in over the past couple of shows.

MyMac Podcast 983: Where’s Guy?
Guy is away and Gaz has to Pod on his Jack Jones, or does he, of course not no one would want that, so Karl kindly stepped in to assist Gaz on this weeks show. They have a short chat about Apple’s HomeKit and Home Automation.
MyMac Podcast 979: CarPlay to Stay
Karl Madden from the Mac and Forth podcast is in to keep Guy in line (good luck with that) while Gaz is away on a well deserved vacation from retirement! Also, General Motors is about to make a big mistake. They are said to be removing both CarPlay and Android Auto from their vehicles with their own Ultifi (no I didn’t make that up) platform. This is just one in a series of decisions GM is making to bring more people into the showroom by totally pissing them off. Because nothing enhances the car buying experience like making it even more frustrating.

MyMac Podcast 973: Let’s Let Loose
Mark your calendars for May 7th which is the next Apple event. Nothing concrete on what they’ll be releasing but having an Apple Pencil in the announcements graphic just MIGHT be a clue. David Ginsburg of In Touch with iOS Podcast fame joins Guy in a podcast that Guy had audio issues with, well for nearly the entire recording…sigh

MyMac Podcast 967: Artificially Intelligent Laughter
What happens when you get two podcasters playing with AI images? Unexpected results and lots of laughs. Karl Madden and Guy spent some time this morning trying to create images with AI and some crazy results occurred. Since this is more visual than usual, Guy will create a version of the podcast on YouTube that will just have the AI image discussion so you don’t have to go through the whole thing.

MyMac Podcast 953: Scary Wrong
Remember just a few weeks ago when we thought there wouldn’t be another Mac event this year? Or did we actually say the exact opposite? Hard to say, as the overblown reverb meant most people couldn’t stand listening to it.

MyMac Podcast 950: So We’re Back!
Sorry about that, but we were away for a bit taking care of all kinds of unrelated to being GMen things, but here we are. With MacOS Sonoma now released, there are certain things to remember and do BEFORE jumping to that new operating system. Chief among them is making sure you have a complete backup you can revert to in case things go horribly wrong! Will they? Probably not. CAN they? Oh most certainly.

MyMac Podcast 935: iMac is 25
Who would have thought that one of the oldest model names in computers is now 25 years old. It’s amazing when you think about where it started and what its become. It went from being an all-in-one plug and play computer to a…well maybe things haven’t changed all that much after all.

MyMac Podcast 932: Cloud Confusion
Cloud computing like it or not is here to stay. The public and now computer companies are making this a fact by changing many of the ways they create computers these days and Apple isn’t immune to it either. So what is it good for and how deep should you go into it?
