Philip and Levi open with the 9to5Mac Happy Hour, condiments and humor. Philip informs Levi of Wunderlist's demise (1:26), which leads to Microsoft Power Apps. Philip extols Chrome on iOS (5:26) and the word preposterous. Levi has JOMO (13:08). The duo unpack the latest report of a new iPad Pro and revamped keyboard accessory (17:03), and Philip helps Levi understand AssistiveTouch. Philip loves schools Levi on TestFlight, and highlights his use of it with Overcast and Tweet Notes (32:30). Levi is stressing about high school basketball playoff seeding tiebreakers (49:59).  Show Links 9to5Mac Happy Hour Wunderlist Microsoft Power Apps Apple reportedly releasing an iPad keyboard with a trackpad later this year Use AssistiveTouch on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch BRYDGE PRO+ Wireless Keyboard w/Trackpad for 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro (3rd Gen) TestFlight Overcast Follow Philip and Levi on Twitter @pheberhard @levigilbert --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/save-it-for-the-mic/support
Philip and Levi quickly discuss the oddities of Apple Card, which leads to the oddities of Apple's habit of tying services to a single user — unless you're using Family Sharing, of course. Philip demonstrates the value of buying the newest Apple tech you can when you're in the market for a new device (12:34). Philip takes us on his AirPods Pro journey (22:27), which leads to a broader discussion on wireless headphones and AppleCare. Philip uses his new Magic Trackpad on a PC (49:16). This leads to the TrackPoint — also known as the Mouse Nipple (50:33) — and Dvorak keyboards (54:05). Levi makes Philip proud with his recent use of the floating keyboard and swipe typing (56:07) in iOS 13. Philip closes with his recent iPad pickup and a pro tip for folks using the first generation Apple Pencil (1:02:38).  Show Links The Talk Show - ‘FAKE FACES’, WITH SPECIAL GUEST GLENN FLEISHMAN have i been pwned?

Philip and Levi sit down to record for the first time in five months. This immediately devolves into an existential discussion about things like work cubicle decorations/arrangement and the Four Light Bulbs. Levi gets a Mac Pro… but not that one. Philip explains RAM. Levi buys a new backpack. Philip learns us on 2020 iPhone rumors. Another existential crisis — browser tab management — also ensues. This leads to talking about being born in the right time, which naturally leads to a discussion of Oscar contenders and movie watching habits. Levi quits movie trailers. Hard stop.

Philip and Levi pass the year mark of saving it for the mic. Levi (surprisingly) and Philip (unsurprisingly) both bought Vignette by Casey Liss (6:59). Philip recounts his Amazon Prime Day haul and reveals his (perhaps unhealthy) affinity for Amazon hardware (13:00). Levi discovers a practical alternate version of CarPlay (22:30).

Philip and Levi are in the endgame now. As in, Philip literally finished Avengers: Infinity War on his phone during the previews as the two sat in a theater to see the re-released version of Avengers: Endgame. After a year's long journey, but more accurately a weekend, Philip sort of caught up in the Marvel Cinematic Universe just in time to see Endgame before it left theaters. Then the guys sat down and recorded their thoughts on Endgame, the MCU as a whole and what may be in store for the next 10 years of the MCU.  Show Links List of Marvel Cinematic Universe films Avengers: Endgame is returning to theaters with a new post-credits scene Avengers: Endgame Re-Release New Footage Breakdown Avengers: Endgame Re-Release Fails to Overtake Avatar as Top-Grossing Movie Follow Philip and Levi on Twitter: @pheberhard @levigilbert --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/save-it-for-the-mic/support

22: Gave Up the Ghost

2019-05-1001:17:06

Levi and Philip return from sabbatical, and because time is a flat circle, they end up talking about the things they always talk about. Philip bought new AirPods. After Sinemia betrayed us all (11:23), should we trust MoviePass again? Levi has been strengthening his will with a new movie trailer rule (25:03). The trailer discussion then spirals into the amazing lunacy that is Netflix's "The OA" (41:57), which inevitably leads to Disney+ and Apple TV+ (1:00:59).

Levi and Philip debate Levi's neurotic new phone charging strategy, which naturally leads to the Energizer Power Max P18K Pop (20:43). This, of course, leads to iPhone witchcraft (28:13). Levi updates the world on Brittany's general iPhone XS happiness six months removed (29:48) before the phone charging strategy debate returns. Levi reports back on his movieboy64 Hotmail account (36:06) before Philip discusses the MacBook haves and have nots (37:54).
