Connected

After blindly obeying a website written by someone else, Myke, Federico and Stephen dream up a new vision for the iPod touch, discuss Safari’s fading marketshare and wonder what foldable devices Apple could be working on.

Like, what even *is* an episode description?

After talking about pen podcasts and the biting lip emoji, Federico, Myke and Stephen give each other a tour of their smart home setups.

Before Federico guesses the names of this year's new emoji, the guys talk about Apple's recent betas and deal with some follow-up. Pour a glass of bean juice and enjoy!

Federico was featured in the App Store, Federico shipped an Obsidian plugin and Federico has questions about Elgato's new foot pedal.

This week, the guys offer up their iPad home screens for roasting after the unboxing of the year.

The iPhone was announced 15 years ago. After the hosts recover from that shocking news, they talk briefly about the 2007 keynote, then move on to discuss some CES news. iOS 15's Photos widget and shameless Wordle clones are also discussed.

It's a new dawn It's a new day There's a new Chairman For us And we're feeling good

2021 is over, but we've got one last episode before the year ends for good. Let Federico, Myke and Stephen guide you through the last 12 months of Apple-focused tech news.

It's time for our annual Christmas gift exchange round-robin, and then the boys get down to business with some competitive picks about what will happen in 2022. All that's followed by a game of 20 Questions, with the questions supplied by Connected listeners! Happy holidays to everyone.

Myke has returned from vacation, armed with follow-up and listener questions. Meanwhile, Federico wanted the group to share some life lessons and Stephen has posted a video of the PodCabin.

Federico and Stephen are joined by John Voorhees to talk about the future of Craft and note-taking apps in general. The next wave of Apple silicon Macs is also discussed, as are vintage products the company should bring back with a modern twist.

Myke is on vacation, so Federico and Stephen are finally free to talk about the Mac and AirPower. Then, a Q&A session for the ages.

Federico and Myke are joined by alternating members of the Hackett family. Beats are reviewed and thanks are given. (Please rate and review the show.)

There's a new version of iOS 15 right around the corner, Apple has announced a new self-service repair program and Twitter is up to ... stuff.

Everyone is bad at setting up their iPhones.

The guys are joined by One True John to talk about life midway through the Apple silicon transition, how Shortcuts for the Mac is shaping up and how our moms feel about our media appearances.

This week on the show: impressions of the AirPods 3 and new MacBook Pro, a review of macOS Monterey and a breakthrough new magnetic product for listeners to track the Connected Chairmen.

Myke, Federico and Stephen sit down to score their "Unleashed" picks ... and unbox something amazing. Then, a special bonus segment featuring some very surprising coin flips.

Apple has announced an October event, so the Passionate Ones have gathered to appoint a new Event Chairman through the making of Picks, both Regular and Risky.

This week, the boys turn to a 12-sided die to shape the order of the show. Topics on the dodecahedron include follow-up, the 10th anniversary of Steve Jobs' death, tables coming to Craft and Amazon's recent announcements.

The guys all have new iPhones and talk about their migration experiences and initial impressions of the new devices. Then, Myke and Stephen tell Federico what he already knew — that the new iPad mini is fantastic.

iOS and iPadOS 15 are out, as are reviews for the new iPhones and iPads. This week, Federico tells Stephen and Myke what the new iPad mini is like and what Safari extensions they should check out. Mood boards were created along the way.

The dust has settled from Apple's iPhone 13 event and a Chairman has emerged from the haze.

Apple will be California Streaming, so the Connected guys are dreaming of sweet, sweet victories in the September '21 Rickies.
