MacBreak Weekly (Video)

The Relay influence with Stephen Hackett and with Jason hosting, made the show 5 Star! Nobody cutting people off and I didn’t have to fast forward as much through Andy!

Since Leo drank the AI Kool-Aid this show has severely dropped in quality. I’m currently listening to him recommend a free “vibe coded” replacement for CleanMyMac. Sure Leo, let’s use a half-baked piece of software with hundreds of dubious forked versions rather than support actual human developers from Ukraine who make some of the best and most reasonably priced Mac software around. Also, the new host is way over caffeinated! Somehow there’s even more interrupting and talking over each other now as well. Andy is the only thing I can enjoy anymore but he’s not enough, after so many years I’m leaving this podcast and my club support behind. Hopefully it somehow gets back on track but I can’t see that happening with this panel and Leo’s love affair with AI. Jason isn’t joking when he displays his disdain for the dumb “Vision Pro” segment Leo. Any ways, so long.

He always pushes back to fanboy blindness and the slavish devotion that every a fruit company puts out is golden, and the sicko-fants derangement syndrome. Keep up the great work. Andy is know to be on right side of history in tech and society intersection.

Alex was a great counter weight to Andy and Leo. Hard to listen now after so many years. Was never crazy about Andy who must use 5000 words to make a two sentence point. Leo come on, tech show not California left political commentary show. Hoping someone sees the light and goes back to basics, tech basics. So much harder to listen without Alex. I be will continue to listen pushing fast forward much more. Would never pay to subscribe as it is now.
