Reviews
I appreciate the differing perspectives and opinions of Hartley and Dan. My biggest frustration with the show is the overall low volume; as compared to other podcasts, such as the gold standard BBC podcasts, the volume for this show is quite low. Also, as others have noted, there are occasional...Read full review »

Please blow your nose before you start the podcast. It has been weeks hearing you sniffing snot 🤢

It is so interesting
Oliver3dp via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/22/24
This show devalues MacRumors. I’m sure these people are nice people in IRL, and they are certainly entitled to their opinions, but Dan often sounds unprepared and Hartley myopic.

Even the Positive episodes are negative. “We got what we wanted but don’t like it!”

Dan! Blow your nose! Stop sniffing onto the microphone! It's disgusting! Use the mute feature of your mic 🎤...Read full review »

Too much negativity and the conversation gets repeated about the same subject.
faythegenius via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/19/24
An entire episode about Samsung? I’m really not interested, c’mon. Hartley is super knowledgeable and a bit wasted here to be honest - looking forward to hearing him on other, better, podcasts.

After listening to the WWDC 2024 recap, I’m thinking Apple should create a new platform….the MacPad…basically an iPad Pro device running macOS instead…what do you think?

THIS IS THE BEST APPLE PODCAST!!!!

Like many, I enjoy updating myself on Macrumors.com as a means of entertainment and tech news. I find the podcast a nice addition to the site, and have enjoyed getting to know the personalities on the show. A request to do more “AMA” style questions!

The show is almost unlistenable due to the unequal volume levels between the hosts.
C'mon John! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/12/24
Hi, I enjoy your content a lot. However, can you turn up the volume a bit as your podcast always sound quiet after finishing / starting other’s podcasts and Apple Podcasts doesn’t come with normalising volume

Entertaining 🤗

I like Hartley Charlton but Dan Barbera is pretty annoying and basically ruins the show. My major complaint is that they project themselves as representing most Apple customers when in fact their comments are often uninformed and narrowly focused on just their own limited point of view -...Read full review »

Really enjoy this Podcast. Very informative and interesting. Subject matter and conversation flows really well.
Lemmo73 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/08/24
I love listening to all the episodes they release and they allow me to catch up on all the news on Apple but also relax.
Lei-Ramirez via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/08/24
This podcast could be good, but it should be hosted by Hartley alone or a better co-host. Dan is never prepared or knowledgeable about the topics which makes it a painful experience for Hartley, who feels more like a babysitter sometimes. Hartley must constantly reign in Dan to keep him on topic,...Read full review »

Look forward to this podcast. Very informative take on the latest apple news and product related updates. This is one everyone should add to their listening rotation.
Kyle Jac via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/06/24
Knowledgeable hosts share Apple news and rumours. Enthusiasm for Apple products is a given but where there are issues this is discussed too.
Zind Tokay via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/06/24
It’s always a pleasure to listen or view the show on YouTube. If you are interested in all things Apple it’s nice to have a source the takes you down that rabbit hole. You have to love Hartley and Dan is well Dan. Just kidding Dan is great also.
Zacster01 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/05/24
I listen to this show every week and I love it! Keep it up. Always entertaining and informative.
Alex&Mia via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/05/24
Entertaining podcast for those who love all things Apple. Dan & Hartley do a great job talking about what is in the news and speculating. Keep up the good work, gentlemen!
ptmack via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/01/24
I listen to your podcast and feel it to be most informative. Love the chatter and all of the topics covered. Wont miss your weekly podcast, thank you guys ⭐️
Callan737 via Apple Podcasts · South Africa · 03/31/24
I have been a visitor to the Macrumors website for years and was really looking forward to the show. I find that Dan as the host of the show has difficulty with guiding the podcast and lacks basic knowledge of the rumors that are happening week to week. But… there is an easy fix to this. Hartley...Read full review »

Hi, I would just like to say how much I enjoy listening to you guys. We give out topics are great love to hear your views, Dan I have to question sometimes whether you love Apple or not, but I do know you have question it. Keep up the good work.

Best Mac podcast, just the tech, none of the hosts politics.
Cleughy via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/30/24
I look forward to listening every Friday on the car ride home.

I listen to you at 2
Mr. Spriggs via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/28/24
Really nice and chill podcast. One thing: I think you are a little bit quiet compared to other podcasts.
MrJKL96 via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 03/17/24
Usually pretty good coverage of Apple-related news. Hartley has super good takes most of the time, Dan is by far the worst part with his ice cold takes and myopic ideas. Even then not too bad, I listen weekly but don’t prioritize this podcast over other Apple ones like Upgrade and ATP. Not quite...Read full review »

More than just rumours. Entertaining and interesting in depth discussions and the hosts have excellent rapport/chemistry. One of my favourite Apple related podcasts.
Alexmac2727 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/16/24
Highly recommend listening to this show for your Apple news and topics! They’re on top of it and always keep us in the know. Trust me… I… know.
seemslikesalvation via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/15/24
Macrumors is the ultimate  enthusiast website. This podcast is the total opposite of that. Seriously, go listen to Upgrade instead. This is like listening to Fred Flintstone review the junk aisles at Home Depot. That Dan guy needs to go. Period.

Talks Apple, is very critical, funny, joyful, honest. 5 stars

Hi, please consider doing an ad-free version of the podcast.. I truly enjoy listening to the latest on all things Apple. I just wish I could listen without those ads .. please consider it 🙏
Akk0202 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/05/24
Great tech news podcast. Also really enjoyed the podcast with the guys from Genius Bar.
Philly Tech Boy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/09/24
I don’t what y’all are all saying this is great, little bland compared to other but they get to they point and are optimistic
Ninja_Brix via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/14/23
For an Apple pod, it’s incredible how much they hate on Apple products. Really annoying. Ton of better Apple pods out there. Skip this one.
ThePie13 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/07/23
I want to enjoy the show, but some of the hosts ending almost every sentence with a rising inflection and peppering every sentence with “like” makes it hard to enjoy.
Gern Blanston via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/06/23
Looking forward to every episode. Informative, lots of tips, and fun! And some of the most important; the hosts are very comfortable listening to 🙂
torbjornhb via Apple Podcasts · Norway · 09/29/23
Why Hartley’s voice sounds so compressed? You have to record wired and lossless, then mix the 2 vocal track, sound compress them separate and then master them, and then do the final encoding compression or better submit it lossless. I seriously hear the artifacts in your voice. It’s horrible....Read full review »

Thank god you don’t work for Apple
soriaj via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/29/23
I bet I have a security issue with Apple that not many (if any) know about. One, all of my Apple products are hacked from my iPhone (13 pro max) Apple Watch 6, 2021 MacBook mini 512gb, and my iPAd 5… they are hacked across all attached through everything attached to my iCloud. If I don’t put on...Read full review »

I just start to follow the show a few weeks ago now every week I listen to it. I JUST LOVE IT !!
itpro82 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/06/23
Great episode! I recently started listening to this podcast and hadn’t connected it to Mac Rumors website until this episode with the founder. I have always based my Apple purchases on Mac Rumors website. Great website and great podcast! Keep up the good work!
mojozmyth via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/26/23
Dropped a rating for the last episode (Apple Car) if you are going to talk about cars, especially electric ones have an expert (a real one). I went from laughing at incompetence to yelling at my phone on the bad advice and misinformation given. First, this is a Apple product based podcast, I...Read full review »
