Space Javelin The Space Javelin crew

We're back from our tour of the multiverse of madness, and ready to head out to the metaverses of mediocrity, but before all that -- a quick stop at Club Dub Dub to check out the latest and greatest with special guest, Kyle Wilson of BusinessInsider!

What a long strange trip it has been ... but at long last, the good ship Space Javelin has been recalled back to base, at least for a while. We salute all those who sailed her alongside us over these (total of) seven years and three months and 470 episodes all told. We'll be back for a special report in June for the big WWDC reveals, but until then ... thanks, cadets.

Special guest Alan Perry and Charles return with even more news and stories (including a horrifying scam attempt that was thankfully thwarted right here in Victoria BC) we had to cut for time from Monday's episode -- just to tide you over the weekend until Monday's new show! Stay tuned, cadets, more surprises ahoy!

Special guest Alan Perry and Charles go over the wildly careening array of news stories from Apple and the other big tech players as usual, but watch out, cadets -- the gravitron is on the fritz, making things especially unstable!
