New MacBreak podcast from Leo and friends

Yet another vidcast (and site) from Leo and friends has launched in the iTMS by the name of MacBreak (iTMS link). Its inaugural episode stars Leo Laporte, Alex Lindsay, Amber MacArthur and a new face in the Leo party: Emery Wells. This first episode is roughly 30 minutes of video coverage from the Macworld Expo floor, with the gang running around checking out iPod accessories, the Best in Show software award winners, AJA video cards, new iLife goodness and, of course, the new Intel Macs. I actually thought the Mac section was a bit interesting, as Leo interviews an Apple rep on the new MacBook Pros and tosses a few curve balls, giving the rep a good run for his money.

It's a great first episode, and the vidcast as a whole shows a lot of potential. It's very well produced (thanks to Alex and the Pixel Corps, maybe?), with great special effect transition goodness and a professional flow not found in many other podcasts. Definitely check it and their site out, as I'm sure there is much to come.

Why is there only an iTunes link? What is the root RSS feed?

That rep seemed to know a lot more than a usual rep. I wonder if that was a scheduled interview rather than a random rep helping a random person at MWSF.

Having been one of those "Apple Reps" in the past, I can tell you that we learned about the new products as we arrived for our shifts or via the Internet. The majority of those "reps" are just ordinary Apple employees from all different business areas who just want to be part of the show. So kudos for Leo for giving the "rep" a run for the money, but keep this in mind next time you want to stick it to one of the Apple booth people.

Could you please try to work the word "goodness" in one more time. You forgot to include "goodness baked in." That's one of my favorite cliches.

Keep 'em comin'!
