    Down with the Bulge with Special Guest Price Hall

    Price Hall joins That Old Pod to breakdown the latest from the Apple iPhone X Keynote this past week. Discussion covers the new products, why they excite us, and things we're excited for as they evolve. Lots of conversation around the best ways to experience entertainment and the future of cinema consumption. Special thanks to Price for stepping in for Cillian who was too busy getting married to be bothered to talk about the new stuff. Congratulations Cillian! Show Notes: iPhone X benchmarks compare favorably to this years MacBook Pros, completely outclassing any other smartphone. Turns out comparing the A10x to an Xbox One X is difficult and will require me some time. I wanted to just get this podcast out and will come back and fill in this section as I do more research.
