MacOS Ken delivers the latest Apple news with dry, witty humor that makes it a fun and essential part of my morning routine. A great mix of news, analysis, and just the right amount of opinion. Ken is a fantastic broadcaster—always engaging and insightful!

I have listened to this show since 2006. The show moved from news to “news/opinions” from financial analysts to more and more opinions and less news. I’m very disappointed in content over the last few years.

Listened to for years and used to be concise and actually about Apple. Lately has devolved into tiresome Trump Derangement Syndrome rantings. I guess new media isn’t much different than legacy media. I hope Ken gets his MOJO back and loses the lefty politics.
