“Another thing: Wesley’s mic is suburb. William’s is… not great. If he’s consider getting a better mic, that’d be great. Even the mic on the apple earbuds (the wired ones) is better than whatever William’s using right now.
App Recommendation: Fruit Stand. It’s an Apple Device collection manager...”Read full review »

“I am a longtime listener and Appleinsider fan. Since Stephen left, the quality of the show has dropped dramtically. I adored the weeks that William was on with Stephen and tolerated (at times) “Wes weeks.”
Since the change, the chemistry between William and Wes, although sincere, is not there. ...”Read full review »

“As a paid subscriber to the podcast, I can’t recommend it enough. I listen to a handful of podcasts that cover all things Apple. But this one is my favorite, by far. The conversations between William and Wesley are always engaging, and I learn something from every episode. Plus both hosts...”Read full review »

“I’m sorry but when your host says ridiculous stuff like Twitter is dead so where does anyone talk about this stuff, then this show is clearly out of touch. This is the second week I’ve listened and something outrageous in the same category has been said. The show also hasn’t really been that...”Read full review »

“Wes full time ruined the podcast. It’s one thing to have opinions about things but he comes off as almighty and if you don’t agree with him you are wrong.
It’s now at the point that listening to this show is almost unbearable.”

“Love the podcast guys. Easy to listen to and down to earth which I appreciate. When I listen I have to knock the volume up 10 clicks compared to any other show in my library. I’ve mucked with all the settings I can think of. That needs to be sorted please.”

“Stephen was great, William is splendid. The two of them had such a great dynamic. Wes was always my least favorite host and now that he’s full time I had to unsubscribe. He has this weird obsession with Elon Musk and keeps throwing his far left political views into the show. I couldn’t tell you...”Read full review »

“This is a nice show, podcasters do good ground work but it’s sometimes not interesting as they try to praise Apple with undue respect and dump non-Apple products. Even they ridicule windows a lot. We are all Apple fans but be moderate and neutral when it comes to critics not praising Apple for...”Read full review »

“Love this podcast. Not only do I find the topics interesting and engaging but I can also just get on with things with Apple insider in the background. However, Wes, I feel constantly interrupts and is somewhat plain rude to to William who is a gentlemen and fellow brummie. Wes’s disdain for X and...”Read full review »

“Latest episode’s editing was HORRIBLE. Lots of dead space, hosts were edited to be talking over each other and couldn’t understand what either was saying.

“One of my pet hates are podcasters who tout their opinion as fact
Wesley Hilliard is one such podcaster
Arrogant and not interested in balance as his view is spouted as fact rather than a debatable point of view and patronises and talks over his co-host
A person who so loves the sound of his...”Read full review »

He doesn’t seem to enjoy the fun stuff about Apple, like indulging in some of the more interesting rumors or speculation....”Read full review »

Wes has some good technical knowledge and was always opinionated but held somewhat in check by Stephen, but no more.
Now it is...”Read full review »
