RJ talks about learning to use a Mac and programming for the iPhone. We rift on some movies like the A-Team and MacGruber.

Customer Reviews
Genuine & Informative...
There are a lot of tech related podcasts out there, but none so well done to speak to the everyday person. Bryan is a knowledgable yet accessible host and there is lots of good stuff here.
