  • Migrating a WordPress Site: Michael walks through how to back up and move a WordPress site from one domain to another using UpdraftPlus and Dropbox.
  • Navigating the Terminal with VoiceOver: Demasi shares tips for VoiceOver users working in Terminal, including VO text selection tricks, bash vs. zsh navigation shortcuts, and piping output to files.
  • Switching Back to Bash: Why Demasi still prefers bash over zsh, how to install the latest version with Homebrew, and how to set it as your default shell on macOS.
  • MultiMarkdown to Rich Text: Demasi demos Brett Terpstra’s services for converting Markdown to formatted email with rich links and bullet lists.
  • A Deep Dive into LaunchBar: Get a full walkthrough of Demasi’s customized LaunchBar preferences—from clipboard history to file actions—plus how to remove its Dock icon for a cleaner workflow.
  • Apple’s Developer Drama: The hosts weigh in on Judge Gonzalez Rogers' ruling, Apple's hostile handling of third-party links, and what it says about Apple’s current priorities.
  • Where Is Apple Headed? A passionate discussion on accessibility, developer trust, and whether Apple’s user-first culture is fading.
