I’ve missed a couple recording sessions for The Prompt, and in my absence, Myke and Federico’s conversations have often turned to video games.
Today, they’re announcing Directional, a new show on 5by5 about gaming. Here’s how my two closest European friends describe the show:
We reflect about past trajectories and current directions, old games and new hits. Directional focuses on the games that are paving the way, the games that laid the foundations and just how dedicated games consoles exist in the smartphone age.
While I already subscribe to a ton of podcasts, I often find myself wanting to check out an episode or two of shows I don’t normally listen to.
To do this, I use an awesome service named Huffduffer, which is probably most easily described as Instapaper for audio. Hit a bookmarklet while on an webpage for a podcast episode and and it is added to your Huffduffer feed. This system allows users to subscribe to just one feed in their client, and listen to any individual episodes added to their account easily.
This week, Myke, Federico and I discuss how little we know about baseball, then move onto Evernote for iOS 7 and Unread for iPhone. After talking about what Mac Myke should buy for his studio, we make some weekly picks.

Seven years ago today, Steve Jobs introduced the original iPhone. I’ve long thought that it was Jobs’ best keynote. Coupled with the importance of the topic, Macworld 2007 is a milestone in Apple’s history.
On this week’s episode of The Prompt, Myke, Federico and I dissect the address, complete with commentary, audio clips and references to terrible Nokia phones. We’ve been wanting to do this episode since before The Prompt was a real project, and I’m thrilled how it turned out.
John Voorhees at Squibner Software has created a Bionic soundboard app for the iPhone.
I was fortunate enough to beta test the app for some time, and it really is great. In addition to Myke’s standard suspense accents, the “soft Matt” clip is present, in addition to collection of clips that will play at random.
In response to the app, Joe Steele wrote an amazing review:
The sixth of January, 2012 A.D. changed the world forever. T’was App Day, in The Before-Times.
This week, I joined Brad Fortin on his podcast — Handsome Bearded Gentlemen — to discuss beards, St. Jude and podcasting.
To ring in 2014, Myke, Federico and I talk about Google services and popular alternatives.
