Customer Reviews
Love Macs, then you'll love this podcast!
Ok, I'm a little biased, but I had to post one comment to start the ball rolling. We work hard each week, but we have a lot of fun doing it. I hope you have fun listening to a couple of old Mac guys talk about our out-of-control hobby.
Great Job!
I love your podcast, especially the enhanced features. I have listened to every single of your podcasts so far and love it. It is very good for people to brush up on there Apple history and for me to learn all about it. I hope you enjoy the podcast as much as I do! Keep up the good work!!!
It's Retro-rific!
RetroMacCast is hosted by James and John, two Mac aficionados who bring you a wealth of knowledge on all things Apple, some entertaining segments and, dare I say it, a show that has it together. In their Retro Mac of the Week segment, the Js spotlight a different Apple computer of yore, which always piques the curiosity of this particular collector. RMC also covers Apple news in general, but most of the show is geared towards retro, as you might expect from the actual show name. In the eBay Finds of the Week segment, James and John scour the online auction site for good deals but also some of the more oddball Apple promotional items of the past and other unexpected goodies tied somehow to our great Mothership in Cupertino — perfect for those in need of a plush “compact Mac” toy or a Steve Jobs jack-in-a-box. Even MY extensive Apple knowledge is challenged on a near-episodic basis by RMC. Whether you’re a collector like I am, or you have a boundless curiosity for Macs and Apple products — even if you’re just wondering what it is that makes us Mac fans so… well, fanatical — then check out RetroMacCast. Highly recommended.
