Live from Portland, Oregon and XOXO, Jason and I have a new episode of Liftoff in which we catch up on some of the latest space news, including classic NASA design specs, the new Boeing Starliner, a year-long mission to the International Space Station, and new pictures from Pluto.
My thanks to our amazing sponsor this week:
I got a preview of this article a while back, and its one reason I use the mic that I do.
EDITOR’S NOTE: This post is now outdated. Visit my gear page for a more current setup.
I get asked about my podcasting gear from time to time, and as I posted a picture of my at-the-office-where-I-record desk online earlier today, I thought I could write up what I’m using.
I would like to note that this is in no way the gear you have to use for your show. I’ve built up my equipment over time, and as both of my shows generate income, I’ve felt like I can justify the expense.
This week, we take turns complaining about the Apple TV and picking apart rumors about its pending update.
Thanks to these sponsors:
On the second episode of our new space podcast, Jason and I provide a primer about our nearest neighbor in the solar system, the Moon.
Our thanks to Luminos, a fantastic astronomy app for the iPhone and Apple Watch, for sponsoring us this week.
This week on Connected, the band was reunited as Federico returned from vacation to discuss the iPad Pro and humans in the real world.
My thanks to these sponsors:
As part of #RelayBirthday, Myke and I took over Clockwise today:
An introspective, touchy-feely edition of Clockwise as we celebrate our 100th episode with special guest hosts and special guest guests.
Get it while it’s hot.
This week’s show was a special one:
This week, Stephen and Myke are joined by David Sparks to talk about Relay FM’s first anniversary, the MacBook and the Apple Music Festival.
My thanks to these sponsors:
Romain Dillet at TechCrunch:
When Myke Hurley and Stephen Hackett launched Relay FM, they expected to build a small independent network of weekly tech podcasts. Just a year later, Relay FM features 16 different shows and delivers 1.5 million downloads every month. Building this loyal audience was an overnight success six years in the making.
If you want to learn a lot about our podcast network and how we run our company, this article is for you. What a day!
In addition to Liftoff, we’re also announcing Top Four, a podcast hosted by Tiffany and Marco Arment in which they basically rank things like movies, TV shows, games and more. It’s a ton of fun to hear.
Over the past six months or so, I’ve been writing, talking and thinking a lot more about space and how we get there.
That’s led — somewhat inevitably — to a new podcast on Relay FM. We’ve named it Liftoff.
Here’s the fancy description my cohost Jason Snell came up with:
Liftoff is a fortnightly podcast about space, the universe, and everything. You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to understand the latest developments as explained by enthusiastic space fans Stephen Hackett and Jason Snell.
This week on Connected:
This week, Federico returns to discuss Force Touch on the iPhone with Stephen and Myke, then the trio discuss the upcoming iOS 9 review on MacStories.
My thanks to our sponsors this week:
Next Tuesday at 1:15 PM Eastern, Myke and I will be taking questions on the live stream to celebrate the first anniversary of the network. You can submit questions on Twitter using #RelayQA and come hang out in the IRC with us.
