Special guest Henry T. Casey comes on the show to give us his hands-on impressions of the MacBook Air with the new M1 chip! Things look...dare we say… promising? We also went hands-on with the PlayStation 5, and chat about… Fleets!
This week we're discussing Apple's ONE MORE THING event and the advent of ARM-based chips in the MacBook Air, Macbook Pro, and Mac Mini. Will they live up to the hype? Then, Bri's first-hand experience with the Xbox Series X, and Assassin's Creed Valhalla.
This week Christina and Simone are UNCHAINED and talking about how the different social media platforms handled this election! There are some winners and losers — but none so far in this election, because we recorded this on Wednesday night! But first, a divergence into Netflix's terrible adaptation of Rebecca.
The PlayStation 5 review units are out, forcing many to ask — how big is too big? And then AMD has gone and purchased Xilinx! What does it mean for the future of chips? Finally, an update on our two favorite scammers, Anna Delvey and Billy McFarland.
This week on Rocket we're eating dessert first, and talking about Jeffrey Toobin's Zoom scandal. Then, it's the first batch of iPhone reviews! Featuring Simone actually, maybe, sort of, buying a new phone on the show. Finally, the DOJ is actually pursuing an antitrust suit against Google. What will come of it?
Simone abandoned us this week, so Christina and Bri are joined by Rene Ritchie, Apple analyst/YouTuber-extraordinaire to break down the Apple iPhone 12 event. Also, a favorite character from Rocket’s past gets some news.
Apple is on the verge of another media event, and the PS5 has been torn down. Then, the ultimate example of technology lock-in.
To celebrate episode 300 we bring on some special guests from the Relay FM family, and taste test Brach's god-awful Thanksgiving Dinner candy corn.
Xbox pre-orders opened up this week… did they go better than the pre-orders for the PlayStation 5 did? NO! Then, it's what's happening with TikTok in the exact moment we recorded this episode, which will not doubt have changed completely by the time you listen to it. Oh, and Microsoft acquired Bethesda. Cool!
In a super-size show, we cover every big announcement from the last week and a half: PlayStation 5 details, an Apple Event (no new phones yet though), the TikTok deal with Oracle and the Nvidia deal with Arm. Phew. Tune in for everything, and some things you never asked for!!
