Apple Intelligence is the biggest feature of the next versions of nearly all of Apple’s operating systems. Except so far other than some slick WWDC demos that didn’t feel like demos but market-speak, there’s been very little concrete evidence any of it is real. Weird power shennanigans are going on this week as well.

Have you ever been to the MacStock Conference and Expo? You're really missing out if you haven't because it's great! Guy is there, but Gaz is not (sad face). However let's do the next best thing that's not really the next best thing and do a podcast there with terrible wifi.

Lately I’ve been experimenting with Livecasting on YouTube with a new short form podcast and our guest Karl Madden actually came up with the name. It’s called The Daily Apple Dispatch and it should be roughly 5 minutes long per episode. So when will it begin? What have I done so far with it and how did the setup go? What programs did I use and what issues have come up?

Karl Madden from the Mac and Forth podcast is in to keep Guy in line (good luck with that) while Gaz is away on a well deserved vacation from retirement! Also, General Motors is about to make a big mistake. They are said to be removing both CarPlay and Android Auto from their vehicles with their own Ultifi (no I didn't make that up) platform. This is just one in a series of decisions GM is making to bring more people into the showroom by totally pissing them off. Because nothing enhances the car buying experience like making it even more frustrating.

The keynote for WWDC has come and gone and holy frijoles was there lots of goodies to digest. Many of which we’ll go over in the next section. The biggest surprise is the new features of Siri in which Apple is trying to improve it instead of taking their cues from the old Ford Model T in which you can ask it anything and receive the answer you want, as long as that answer is here are some weblinks.

Last show Guy contemplated getting another Mac mini. Well he didn’t do that but instead took the advice that I and every other person with two brain cells to rub together told him to do when the M1 MacBook Pro he ALREADY had was thrown into the mix. Which was to use THAT as the dedicated podcast computer he thinks he needs. We’ll talk a bit about how that project is going and what he’s accomplished so far…which may be not much
