Holiday break, no talkcast this week
Meanwhile, we're surveying the team here for favorite Mac and iPod/iPhone podcasts, and we've got a short list going; if you have must-listen or must-watch Mac podcasts, let us know so we can check them out. Also, a quick plug for our own Christina Warren in her costarring role on the Squadcast, the video podcast from Download Squad -- highly entertaining.
Our picks for podcasts + those suggested by your comments:
- Shawn King's Your Mac Life, inexplicably left off the original list. If Adam Curry is the Podfather, then Shawn is certainly some sort of capo.
- Mac Attack!
- the Maccast
- Typical Mac User Podcast (TMUP) -- Victor and I are trying to schedule a cohosted show for early December, more on that as it develops.
- Talk Show -- Gruber and Benjamin are the Harold and Kumar of podcasting.
- Retro Mac Cast, featuring vintage Mac discussion.
- MacBreak Weekly -- Leo Laporte's star-studded show, with occasional special guests.
- MacBreak Tech, the geekier side.
- Mac OS Ken, suggested by Carlos. Mac news with attitude -- sounds like our kind of show.
- Mac Geek Gab -- John & Dave lean more technical than most shows.
- MacDevNet -- both Late Night Cocoa and the Mac Dev Roundtable are great for developers and would-be developers.
- Apple Phone Show -- MacBreak's Scott Bourne on the iPhone.
- ScreenCastsOnline -- though there's a paid version that's well worth it, the free instructional screencasts are also a treat.

Well, as you might have guessed, we're all turkey'ed out here at TUAW headquarters (located in scenic Hendersonville, NC) and as a result...

Follow your link and you will find that Hendersonville is in NC, not SC. Granted Hendersonville, NC is only about 15 miles from the state line, but I don't think they are ready to secede from NC. Or you could be completely disoriented and in Hendersonville, TN?

Looking forward to it.
Thanks for the mention

Thanks you for mentioning my podcast, The Mac Attack. I hope you all had a great Turkey Day.

November 25 2007 at 12:39 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyGotta love John Foster et. al. on MacBreakTech. (okay-I'm sometimes an et. or an al. on the show-but despite that it's still consistently great geekage...)
November 25 2007 at 12:36 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyFunny... you left out my fav, Mac OS Ken. No punditry, just funny observations on our fascination with the Mac. The guy is a pro, fo' real!
November 25 2007 at 11:35 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyI hesitate to say it is must-listen, but we got quite a few listeners from TUAW that last time we were mentioned so you might mention us again. At the RetroMacCast (www.retromaccast.com) we discuss older Macs and the rich history of Apple.
