I’m very excited that Stephen has joined the show! I missed listening to him in a podcast format since he left Apple insider. Great to have him back! Going to make this show a weekly listen in my podcast lineup
since the host change even the guests seem to all be egotists and not connected to us normal folk
I’ve been a long time listener and always enjoyed both the content and the dynamic between David and Stephen H. When there is a host change, you never know how it will work. Stephen R. Has been a great addition to the show. I’ve enjoyed his YouTube and other programs. He’s a great addition to MPU. Keep up the good work.
Loved the discussion with David Pogue!!
I listen to this in my sleep, and I swear I am learning from this in my sleep.
Also, this podcast is ranked 61 in technology. I also like the swap of Stephens, Keep up the great work, David
