Talking Apple Retail with Michael Steeber - TMO Show 2024-06-21

Michael Steeber, “Tabletops” publisher and developer of the app “Facades,” is probably the person with the most knowledge of Apple Retail today outside of Apple. This week, he joins host Ken Ray to discuss:

  • His history with Apple Retail
  • The short, sad tenure of Apple Retail exec John Browett
  • Apple Vision Pro in Apple Stores
  • Apple Retail – Post-Pandemic and Post-Angela Ahrendts
  • The Apple Store Time Machine
  • The Facades App
  • Favorite Apple Retail Locations

Apple at Cannes, Essential Reality, 2nd HomePod and AirPlay 2 vs. Soundbar - ACM 464

Apple Senior Vice President Angela Ahrendts is going to be interviewed at Cannes Lions, but the person interviewing her is an Apple employee. Bryan Chaffin and Jeff Gamet think that’s a little weird. In hindsight, they also think it’s weird that Andy Rubin thought he could make money making Android hardware, an Essential(ly) bad idea. In the third segment, Jeff helps Bryan spend money when picking between a 2nd HomePod and a soundbar now that AirPlay 2 is here.
