SJ Special Report - WWDC June 2022

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! https://www.apple.com/apple-events/

SJ275: Liberty Hall! Apple #1 in sales worldwide, Alexa sells out, Dr. Dre self-owns, & much more!

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. https://soundcloud.com/spacejavelin/macnn-podcast-episode-03 https://appleinsider.com/articles/22/05/07/apples-self-repair-progra...

Special guest Stephen Robles of the AppleInsider Podcast joins us as we head back to home port, cadets, for an episode that is loaded with mind-blowing facts such as: Apple still making money, Google still copying Apple, and the Mac Studio still being really really powerful! You won't want to miss this one, so tool up -- the ship's new self-repair program isn't for crybabies! https://appleinsider.com/articles/22/04/28/apple-has-another-record-breaking-quarter-reporting-9728-in-revenue-for-q2-202...

Space Javelin Special: New website update #2

A short but important update on the progress of our new Space Javelin website. We decided to add an upstairs bathroom and a space patio, so that's pushed us back a bit longer than we intended, but we are still here and, we hope, so are you. We wanted to keep you in the loop as we work to complete this major refit, and we're sorry for the delay -- but we have a special treat coming before the end of the month to tide you over. Stay tuned, cadets!

Space Javelin Special: Update on a Space Javelin website!

We have had an idea (uh oh ...) which has resulted in a change of plans (UH oh ...), and we wanted to let our listeners know. Instead of taking one week off, we're gonna do three weeks off ... but for a very good cause: building (finally) a real Space Javelin website to serve as a home base for our various shenanigans and jibber-jabber. Please stay tuned, amuse yourself with some of our older episodes, and we'll be back before you know it with more and better everything!
