A look at first-day orders for iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPad Air 4. Plus, Bill Gates says Congress should look at big tech companies individually, not as a lump. And he's right.

Everyone knows the drill by now. Apple does a big event in September, new iPhones are announced, and tech podcasters gather together to talk about what the company did or didn't do with their new shiny iThings. Do three little letters mean a better iPhone? Is it time to upgrade or buy an Apple Watch? The Shelly Brisbin joins the BBQ Crew who goes over the event in their own way that you have come to expect some five years running. Discussion Topic: Apple's September iPhone Event J.J. takes the lead, with Shelly and Joe alongside, to cover the news from Apple Park. Some of what they spoke about in this episode is listed below. However, per our usual when it comes to wrap up shows, you can learn far more from articles and links compiled after the event has concluded. Editorial Summary of Apple's "by Innovation Only" Event on September 10 11 things you may have missed at Apple's iPhone 11 event iPhone 11: First look at Apple's entry-level iPhone iPhone 11 Pro: Hands on with Apple's new flagship iPhone 11 Pro first hands on impressions Apple s new iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro cameras: what they do iPhone 11 vs. iPhone XR iPhone Naming Conventions Are a Mess With the iPhone 11 Pro, what does it even mean for a phone to be pro ?

Shelly and J.J. also went over the new access that came with the recently released Android 10 on the Parallel podcast.

Shares of Google and Facebook both fell over 6% on word US regulators have coordinated to take them on. Meanwhile, Apple’s big Worldwide Developers Conference unveiled fresh new iThings. And then private equity firm Blackstone led the biggest private real estate transaction ever -- and became Amazon’s landlord.

Oh look it's one of your top 100 favourite podcasts, back again! This week we've been doing a bit of live streaming, and will be again on Monday - any Monday. Neotown! 4kville! Slimsborough! Etc. We react to all the Playstation news live, in a fashion that could be confusing out of context, Alex has been to Brighton, Ash has been to a craft fair. We've news on last year's Skylanders, as is tradition, and we've taken the plunge on Official Dead Island Syndrome Game 2016 - Verdun. Elsewhere, Mario comes to iThings, Firewatch comes to Xbone, JJ is sick of PSN, we take a fond old look at a certain Jedi secondary school, and Funk and PJ aren't interested in your console iterations Sony, so jog on.

An all-star panel of Apple techs (Peter Cohen, Stephen Hackett, Joe Saponare, Sam Valencia) discuss dealing with customers who have broken iThings.

Episode 23 arrives during a controversial week in the world of gaming! Join host Glenn "The Commissioner" Gordon, The Original Ben Sterling, and KGB Garri Bagdasarov as they discuss the latest gaming news. Garri doesn't believe that video game conferences should have "Behind Closed Doors" demos of games, and that E3 shouldn't be as much about video games as it is. Also, many Xbox gamers have been very upset with Bungie's seemingly close relationship with Sony as of late concerning its upcoming game, Destiny, to the point that the company, formerly owned by Microsoft but now completely independent, has responded multiple times. Do Xbox gamers really have something to worry about? Gamers, if you love awesome music and happy nostalgic feelings, be sure to check out OverClocked Remix. They don't know we're talking about them, but we love what they do. This episode's music comes from OCR. The intro, Immortalized, is a remix from Halo 3, done by Sole Signal. The ending, In Memoriam, is a FULL remix, also from Halo 3, by Brandon Strader. Star King, a remix of the StarWolf theme, done by DaMonz and used as the intro of RDGH episode 21, also makes an appearance.

It's a very special week for gaming as E3 2014 continues, and the most racially diverse gaming cast on the Internet has been keeping eagle eyes on the goings-on in Los Angeles. Join host Glenn "The Commissioner" Gordon, KGB Garri Bagdasarov, Ben Sterling, Fraser "The Shapeshifter" Miller, and, during a brief break from the show floor at E3 itself, The Prodigal Son Ernest Lin, as they take you on a play-by-play analysis of the conferences from the Big Three. Who "won" E3? Our intro music this week is a remix of the StarWolf Theme from StarFox 64, by a talented remixer from Overclocked Remix called DaMonz. To hear the whole song and download it and many more great video game remixes for free, visit OCremix.org. The ending is also a remix of the StarWolf Theme, this time a metal remix by Matias Yáñez. Click here to hear the whole thing, and be sure to subscribe to his YouTube channel for more.

Episode 20 of the Racial Diversity Gaming hour is here, and with it the most racially diverse gaming cast on the Internet today! Join host Glenn "The Commissioner" Gordon, KGB Garri Bagdasarov, The Original Ben Stirling, and The Shapeshifter, Fraser Miller as they talk about the latest events in gaming. The most anticipated new IP in history, Watch_Dogs, finally launched on May 27, breaking industry records for a new IP by selling an enormous amount of copies in its first week of public existence. As many gamers are discovering, however, Ubisoft did not manage to make the game perfect on the first try. What went wrong? Sony and Microsoft both plan to launch the PS4 and Xbox One in China--but with strict content rules and a society relatively inexperienced with video games, is the largest country in the world really worth their effort? The Wii U has finally earned a ray of light, outselling the PS4 in Japan and significantly increased interest around the world. How has its latest offering, Mario Kart 8, helped the struggling Wii U? All of this and more makes the latest episode of RDGH. Enjoy! Our intro music this week is a vocal remix of the Rainbow Road track from Mario Kart 64. It was made by talented remixers Benjamin Briggs and Level 99 from OCremix.org. To hear the rest of the song and download it and many more amazing video game remixes for free, visit OCremix.org.

Tweet us your opinions and leave us iTunes reviews, and we'll discuss them on the air! Also, you don't want to miss Episode 21 next week, where the most racially diverse gaming cast on the Internet will recap the Big Three press conferences for Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony! Stay tuned!

Episode 19 is finally here, and the most racially diverse gaming cast on the Internet has things to say (as usual). Join host Glenn "The Commissioner" Gordon, KGB Garri Bagdasarov, Ben Sterling, and newcomer Mike Harradence (officially dubbed "The Muscles from Brussels") as they discuss the news in gaming. YouTube is making plans to buy Twitch for a billion dollars, and gamers are concerned that like YouTube, Twitch could have an influx of ads and content could be removed for digital rights management purposes. Hear why the cast thinks this is not entirely accurate. The Xbox One will soon have an SKU at the same price point as the PS4, minus the highly-touted and much maligned Kinect camera. GameStop has reported greater interest in the Xbox One since this new disKinected SKU was announced, but will the difference be enough to significantly dent the millions-wide gap between sales for the Xbox One and the PS4? Free-to-play, pay-to-play, and buy-to-play are three business models that have caused controversy among gamers for years, and KGB Garri has something to say about it. Which is the best business model, and is there any hope for the others? Also, can Driveclub's microtransactions be successful without harming the community? Finally, The Commissioner has an important message about E3, and the cast makes predictions about what we could see on June 9 and how it will affect Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo. All this and more comprise a great episode of RDGH. The intro and ending music are remixes of "Logan's Journey" from the Guild Wars 2 soundtrack. The intro is from the Sunny Glade level of Super Adventure Box, a dungeon within Guild Wars 2. Hear the rest of it and more at ArenaNet's official SoundCloud; the game has a seriously great soundtrack that's worth the listen. The ending is a metal remix of the intro song, created by very talented game music remixer, DusK. Hear the entire song here, and be sure to subscribe to him for more great remixes.

Leave us a review and we will read it aloud on the air. Thanks to TheoSeraph1985 for your review this episode!

Episode 18 comes during an exciting week for gaming, and the most racially diverse gaming cast on the Internet has something to say about it! Join host Glenn "The Commissioner" Gordon, KGB Garri Bagdasarov, The Prodigal Son Ernest Lin, and our good ol' Host with the Most Dane Smith as they tackle the issues this week. Could the PlayStation Vita be getting another price drop? Can Sony handle another price drop? Nintendo won't be at E3, opting instead to use Nintendo Direct once again. Is this a good move for the company? With talk of new Nintendo consoles incoming, has Nintendo finally given up on the Wii U? Microsoft has a hunch as to why it's so far the behind the PS4 in sales. Does the old argument about Sony's presence in multiple territories making for more sales ring true? Also, it's like Resident Evil 5 all over again with the announcement of Far Cry 4, which looks like it will be a highly anticipated game. An apparently controversial cover had some gamers outraged--and in turn, Dane and Glenn are both outraged at those gamers. Hear one of the biggest rants on RDGH so far about a controversial topic, all in the latest episode of RDGH. Be sure to follow us on Twitter @RDGHpsu, and let us know how you feel about all these issues. We will read and discuss your tweets on the next episode! Also, subscribe on iTunes to have both of our amazing podcasts downloaded to all your iThings automatically. Leave us an iTunes review and we will read it on the air as well! Note from The Commissioner: If you send in a Tweet and we fail to read it on the air, send me a quick email at glenn.gordon@psu.com!

It's Wednesday, and that means a new episode of the most racially diverse gaming podcast on the Internet today! Join host "The Commissioner" Glenn Gordon, "The Shapeshifter" Fraser Miller, and once again, our other Host with the Most Dane Smith as they discuss the issues in modern gaming. Dane's review of the God of War collection got some criticism. Are reviews really worth listening to, and what should gamers look for in a review? Also, is it really worth remaking games? Nintendo had to apologize recently for not allowing homosexual relationships in one of its games. Lately, more and more games have been allowing for homosexuality. Is this a trend that could continue to grow? Should it? For gaming, what makes PCs better than consoles? What makes consoles better than PCs? Also, does Sony have the right idea in giving indie gaming more attention? Will we start seeing fewer AAA games in the future, and what makes a AAA game a AAA game anyway? All of this and more comprises episode 17 of the Racial Diversity Gaming Hour. Enjoy! Don't forget to subscribe to us on iTunes so you can have our podcast downloaded to all your iThings automatically. Leave us a review and we'll read it on the air once it's published. Also, follow us on Twitter @RDGHpsu, and weigh in on the topics we discuss or suggest your own. We will read your tweets on the next episode!

Our cast lineup is a little crazy for this one! One has to go, so we have an extra one on. Join host The Commissioner: Glenn Gordon, The Prodigal Son Ernest Lin, Ben Sterling, Fraser "The Shapeshifter" Miller, and for most of the cast, KGB Garri Bagdasarov as they discuss the issues in all kinds of gaming. After a cast about PlayStation and a cast about Wii, the most racially diverse gaming cast on the Internet turns to Xbox to discuss the status of one of the leading consoles of this generation. Day One editions of the Xbox One are still on sale. Microsoft has begun marketing in Japan and seems to be up to its old tricks--but Japan may not be taking it seriously. Also, Japan has a very interesting way of measuring console power.... All of this and more makes episode 15 of the most racially diverse gaming podcast on the Internet today. Don't forget to subscribe to us on iTunes so you can have both of our amazing podcasts downloaded to all your iThings automatically! Leave us a review and we'll read it on the air! Also, follow us on Twitter @RDGHpsu!

The most racially diverse gaming podcast on the Internet is back with its sixteenth episode and its equally diverse cast returns with it! Join host Glenn "The Commissioner" Gordon, Ben Sterling, and KGB Garri Bagdasarov as they discuss the latest issues in all kinds of gaming. Sony is expecting a huge loss for this fiscal year, and it probably has very little to do with PlayStation. More than 1,000 independent developers have signed up to self-publish on the PS4, and Sky Go and Now TV are coming to PS4s all over the UK--but why not Xbox Ones? Mario Kart 8 is making waves for the Wii U. Also, is it important for companies to uphold their Terms of Service, or is it a losing battle? There are not one, but TWO rants this episode. KGB Garri is mad about new terminology in Child of Light, and Ben is somewhat bothered by CCP's flip-flopping at the expense of EVE: DUST 514. Don't forget to subscribe to us on iTunes so you can have both of our amazing podcasts downloaded to all your iThings automatically! Leave us a review and we'll read it on the air! Also, follow us on Twitter @RDGHpsu. What do you think about DRM, and Twitch's Terms of Service? Weigh in on Twitter with #RDGH!

It's a new week and a new RDGH! Episode 14's a great listen, so join host KGB Garri Bagdasarov (You read right; #BelieveInGarri's hosting!) The (Dethroned) Commissioner Glenn Gordon, Ben Sterling, and the Prodigal Son himself, Ernest Lin, as they discuss the world of gaming. Why on earth did Sony sell its Square Enix shares? (Bonus points for catching all the alliteration in this week's title, by the way). Wii U only sold half of what Sega's Dreamcast did in the same timeframe. What's wrong with the Wii U, and how can it possibly be fixed (naturally, the cast can't talk about this without mentioning the possibility of a Pokémon MMO)? Speaking of Square earlier, the company is back on track to produce more JRPGs going forward. Is this a good thing for them? Don't forget to follow @RDGHpsu on Twitter. Tweet us to send your input. Also, remember to follow us on iTunes so you can have our awesome podcasts downloaded to all your iThings automatically! Leave us a review too. We'll read your tweets and reviews on the air! Outro song: Rising Sun - Hikari (Rock Remix)

Surprise! The Racial Diversity Gaming Hour's original host-with-the-most, Dane Smith, joins us all the way from South Korea as a special guest for one episode only! Join him and host Glenn "The Commissioner" Gordon, KGB Garri Bagdasarov, and Ben Sterling as he explains what being a gamer in South Korea is like. Xbox has gotten ANOTHER retailer price cut from some UK retailers, making those units comparable in price to the PS4. What does this mean for Xbox as a whole and for PlayStation? Harmonix's CEO announced plans to bring Rock Band and Dance Central to PS4 and Xbox One! PlayStation's advertising has felt lackluster since the departure of Kevin Butler, but could everyone's favorite Vice President of _______ return? Afterward, Dane has a good rant about Anita Sarkeesian, who won a 2014 Game Developer's Choice award. We're all for more females in video games. In fact, we're all for more of EVERY kind of person in video games, but listen to find out why we think the issue should not be forced. Also, stay tuned at the end for a special treat from E3 2010! Remember to subscribe to us on iTunes so you can have both of our amazing podcasts downloaded to all your iThings automatically. Rate us and leave us a review and we'll read it on the air next week!

It's a brand new week and a brand new RDGH as host Glenn "The Commissioner" Gordon, Ben Sterling, and KGB Garri Bagdasarov discuss the long runs of Pokémon and Power Rangers. Of course, they can't start talking about Pokémon without hanging around the topic for awhile, discussing the new evolutions, and why there are TOO MANY FLIPPIN' POKÉMON! Also, why, Nintendo, have you not made a full-fledged Pokémon MMO yet? It's not all Pokémon though. Guild Wars 2 is getting new megaservers. Should we see these on more MMOs? Why aren't more studios embracing the Vita? Find this out and more in this new episode. Oh, and The Commissioner apologizes for his moment of dyslexia in the beginning: "How has your been week, Garri?" Really, Glenn Gordon?

Join host Glenn "The Commissioner" Gordon, Ben Sterling (Shillabeer-Hall), KGB Garri Bagdasarov, and the Prodigal Son, Ernest Lin (who is prodigal no more!) as we discuss the gaming world at large. Is it better to delay the release of a game or release it and patch it later? Are the glitches worth it? Then, Ben has a good ol' British rant about Assassin's Creed. A new Deus Ex name has been trademarked; could a new installment be on the way? And, of course, inFAMOUS is still worth talking about. The intro music this episode is a remix of Dovahkiin, Skyrim's theme, by the talented Brandon Strader over at Overclocked Remix. Download the full track and check out other great remixes from other games at OCremix.org. Also, don't forget to subscribe on iTunes to have our amazing podcast downloaded to all your iThings automatically!

We're 10 weeks into RDGH's life, and this show is a great way to commemorate it. Join host Glenn "The Commissioner" Gordon, KGB Garri Bagdasarov, and Ben "Chille" Shillabeer-Hall as we defend PSU's apparently controversial 10/10 score of inFAMOUS: Second Son. Also, could Xbox's sales numbers skyrocket past PlayStation's when Xbox One launches in more markets this September? Are patches better than delays for incomplete games? (*cough*BF4*cough*Skyrim*cough*) Are gamer expectations too high? Should games be less afraid to add heinous crimes like sexual assault to their stories? The most racially diverse gaming cast on the Internet answers these questions and more in this landmark episode of RDGH. Don't forget to follow us on Twitter @RDGHpsu, and to subscribe on iTunes so you can have our podcasts downloaded to all your iThings automatically. If you have anything to add, tweet about it with #RDGH and we'll read it on the air in episode 11!

Ernest Lin returns for (most of) the seventh episode of RDGH! Join host Glenn "The Commissioner" Gordon, KGB Garri Bagdasarov, Multiple-Nicknames-But-Let's-Go-With-Chille Ben Shillabeer-Hall, and the Prodigal Son Ernest Lin for an interesting and somewhat nostalgic chat about TwitchPlaysPokemon, the online gaming phenomenon that has been taking over gaming news for the past few weeks. Also, what happened to Ubisoft's new IP, Watch_Dogs, since its delay? In addition, E3 is coming up, and though it's still a few months away there's always a good time to talk about what might be there and what might be in store for gamers in the very near future. If you have any suggestions or hopes for E3, leave them in the comments at PSU.com and/or tweet them with the hashtag #RDGH! The Commissioner will read your replies next week on episode 8.

Episode 6 already! Our host, Dane, will be away for awhile, and The Commissioner (Glenn Gordon) takes the reigns along with KGB Garri Bagdasarov, Ben "The Real Jim Sterling" Shillabeer-Hall, and latecomer Chris Clement (who has no nickname... for now). How was the Titanfall beta? There's to be a new season of Heroes?! Do we really need anymore Wolverine movies? Just how awesome are video game voice actors Nolan North and Troy Baker? Most importantly, WHERE IS ERNEST LIN? D: Tune in, and don't forget to subscribe on iTunes to have RDGH and PlayStation Unchained downloaded to all your iThings automatically! One more thing. Just what is this music we've stuck at the beginning and end of the podcast? If you recognize the anime it comes from or the artist who performed it, comment the correct information over at PSU and The Commissioner himself will give you a shoutout on Episode 7!

Love, is a many splendored thing, it’s all that matters, it’s all around, it moves in mysterious ways, it’s the answer, it makes no promises, it’s blind, you can’t buy it, it’s not for sale, it takes it toll, you can’t hurry it, it’s not a game, it’s a battlefield, it will keep us together, you can’t help falling in it, it doesn’t ask why, it hurts, and: “I would do anything for love, but I won’t do that”. Whatever “that” is. As runners, we say that we “love to run”, as husbands, wives and partners we most certainly love our significant others, we love people, friends, family, parents, children, all creatures great and small, and we love things…our magical revolutionary iThings, good wine, our running shoes, our town, our little blue bubble in space…and of course, we love more ethereal things such as situations and experiences.  But what is this thing called love?  When the alien robot overlords invade our planet, and they ask about this emotional connection we have to people, things and experiences…what will we tell them?
