It what might be a record, Gaz and Guy not only manage to keep the show under an hour, it’s under 50 minutes! Hold your applause though because you may miss the greatest Gaz’s Tip EVER…well we thought it was funny anyway. Samsung loses round one of the most watched patent trial since Edison won his against whoever that other person was! Some terrific feedback from you, our fantastic audience and apparently in some cultures, hippos equals horses.

Why do people find clowns so scary? Probably because they just seem creepy in general. Hands up, how many of you find the killer is a clown movies totally plausible? Yep, thought so. The GMen aren’t afraid of clowns mostly, but tech behaving badly gives them the frights. Guy replaces an iPhone with poor Bluetooth and finds that iCloud was a bit of a fail and Gaz has yet to install Mountain Lion. A clown was the lead that broke the “Who broke into Steve Jobs house?” case and Gaz finds out that some people have a natural fear of our face-painted friends. The way back machine comes into play with a DashBoard Minute from 2005 and wonder of wonders! We now have a closing theme song for Gaz’s tips!

No turtles were hurt (because we like them) in the making of this podcast, but brain cells could be an entirely different matter. We recording a few days earlier from now on which means you get all that GMen goodness a few days early too! Well until you get used to it and don’t think it’s a big deal anymore. Gaz watches the Olympics through the BBC on his iPad and Guy wipes Snowy off his Mac Pro. We’re both amused over the MASSIVE amounts of tablets Samsung sold last quarter (37,000) as well as other courtroom shenanigans from our friends from across the pond who never saw a good design they couldn’t steal! Dorothy Yamamoto asks us about iCloud and much much more!

Many Skype issues this week which makes for weird audio quality and we apologize for that, but it’s still a fun and crazy show. We ask if the iPad is a real computer with mixed results and Gaz answers a listener’s question about using an iPad in the UK. From there your two favorite airheads talk about AirPrint in iOS and Nik Hall comes through with a “Gaz’s Tips” theme song! How cool is that?

The Ladies talk about ways they keep their Macs and iOS devices running clean, and Vicki tells us what she likes and dislikes about Mountain Lion. Sorry for the scratchy noises-the Skype gods were against us during recording!

No Gaz this week as he’s off on one of those pesky vacations but Guy isn’t flying solo as Tim Verpoorten from SurfBits and the Mac ReviewCast jumps in. They talk about how it’s Tim’s fault his wife hit their garage, bad multiple modems, and a weird iPhoto Library issue. From there it’s off to Some Mountain Lion talk, the death of yet another Apple cloud service, and bigger iPhones with smaller connectors. It’ll all make sense once you listen trust me!

Gaz is a bit late but it worked out for the best because we were actually able to talk about Apple’s financial results for 2012 quarter 3! And you thought talk about money would be boring? Not with the GMen!

The Ladies talk about their favorite games, with a little help from the MyMac.com writers. They also mention the release of Mountain Lion, and why Google is stopping production of the 16GB Nexus 7.

Gaz’s daughter’s 3GS almost goes POP, so her pop gets her a new battery for it. Guy rediscovers music from the 70s that he had (unsurprisingly) almost forgotten about. They give some thought to a potential smaller iPad that so many seem in a tither about and ask the question, “Are iOS devices ready to become your only computer?”

Another weird and fun week with the GMen as that ol Stick (or is that stuck?) in the mud Gaz has a good time watching fast cars go around a track and Guy gets a package with Crabs and Penguins. Just listen as it will all make sense soon. Guy talks about setting up an iPad and laptop for his college-bound son. TONS of feedback and suggestion from our great listeners and why Gaz and Guy don’t want you to act like Batman.

Almost had another Gaz solo show with no power at Guy’s house for three days, but the power company fixed it just in time! If this had been Guy’s only problem over the last week it would have been no biggie, but this was just the tail end of Guy’s woes and he’s determined to tell you all about it. Gaz sticks to a more normal life (for Gaz anyway), with expensive FaceTime roaming charges, transitioning out of MobileMe, and another great Mac tip for this week.

At some point in-between about a zillionn other podcasts, Gaz manages to do this one. this is very good because Guy couldn’t make it and who wants to listen to an hour of silence? Tim Verpoorten formally of the Mac Review Cast joins Gaz for the last two segments for a little bit of back and forth. For once, Guy isn’t interrupting Gaz! Except in these show notes which Guy wrote so it’s kinda like…(GET ON WITH IT!).

OK, we promise not to make many more shows this long, but we did have a guest! Tom Schmidt from First Tech and MyMac.com joins the GMen for a lively discussion on WWDC and Microsoft’s new Surface Tablets. Guy deals with graduations, Gaz deals with a angry iPhone, and they both deal with new ways to possibly get podcasts in the future. You just have to deal with an extra long show.

Guy and Gaz record early because of some timing issues later in the week but circumstances almost make it impossible to record at all! It all gets straightened out though. WOOTies are proven to exist in the wild, Gaz packs extra bags for his gadgets on vacation, we get lots of feedbagck from you people (thanks for that), and the GMen go over their WWWDC predictions that will all be settled by the time you hear this. Tips, app recommendations, and a whole lot of hilarity makes this a not to be missed show!

Guy corners Neil Worton and gets him on the show which is doubly good because Gaz is on vacation and no one wants to hear Guy do a solo show. Turns out Neil has a lot to say about getting documents and other kinds of content off your Mac and on to your iOS devices with Goodreader and who woulda thunk it but Amazon has a free way to do it (sort of, but in that clunky corporate way) too. They also talk about setting up an Apple Airport Extreme or Time Capsule for some of these apps or remote access. Fun stuff and make sure you listen through to the very end for some real Diamond in the rough stuff.

More (and I promise the last) talk about the VW Bug and how it indirectly made Guy sick. The GMen start a little later than usual because of the meeting from heck that Gaz had to attend to first, and his monitors are driving him crazy. Some great feedback from our listeners and someone who was supposed to be here wasn’t. Gaz thinks it’s his fault though. He makes up for it with some great new Finder tips including one that floats that Guy thinks is cool and makes him think of Tim Curry for some odd reason.
