Podcasts about MacBook

This week on Mac Geek Gab, you’re stacking up power moves from the jump. You’ll learn how to clean up messy lists in your favorite text editor, discover that any USB-C port on your MacBook can charge it, and find out why you should be charging your power bank from random ports instead of your iPhone or Mac. iPhones can now serve as Tailscale exit nodes — and that leads down a tangent where the guys dig deep into subnet routing so you understand exactly what that unlocks. You’ll also pick up how to save PDFs on iPhone when all you see is a print icon, how to use Apple Intelligence in Pages to reformat text as recipes, and how to clean up MacWhisper transcripts before anyone sees the raw chaos. Don’t Get Caught running Plex in Low Power Mode, either — there’s a fix for that. Dave also stumbled into a wild Fable moment when the AI found onto an unpublished API and decided to throttle itself back to Opus. Then the crew pivots to WWDC 2026 reactions, and there’s a lot to unpack. One big theme is refinement and stability: the new Liquid Glass slider is a visual treat, and Dave’s already running the beta without disaster. Apple Intelligence is getting a serious upgrade, with Siri becoming more contextually aware of what’s on your device, though the guys push back on where it still falls short compared to tools like Claude Cowork. Parental controls got a surprisingly large share of the spotlight for a developer conference, signaling Apple wants to own the conversation around kids and screen time — this leads to the interesting question of whether spouses can choose to hold each other accountable. Apple Vision Pro gets a Siri Orb and custom panoramas, and iOS 27 dev beta now includes a Recovery mode.

Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference happened this week, and there was enough going on that we wanted to unpack the whole thing, primarily due to the company's uncharacteristic backpedaling on its... controversial Liquid Glass UI language, not to mention the unusual focus on CPU scheduling and numerous other performance refinements across the board in this year's OS updates, rather than the more typical long list of new features. It was enough to get us saying the words "Snow Leopard," which is always a good feeling. We also consider new broader parental controls, the apparently final state of Apple Intelligence and Siri AI features, and more. Support the Pod!

Apple acaba de dejar muchísimas pistas sobre el futuro del iPhone, el Mac y Apple Intelligence.En este nuevo episodio de APPLEaks, analizamos las noticias más importantes de la semana: el iPhone plegable tipo pasaporte, el posible MacBook Ultra con M6, las nuevas funciones de FaceTime en iOS 27, el fin de soporte para varios iPhone antiguos en WhatsApp y la confirmación de que macOS Golden Gate quedará limitado a equipos con Apple Silicon. Pero el centro del episodio está en algo mucho más grande: Apple Intelligence, Siri AI, Gemini y la Unión Europea.Apple insiste en que su enfoque se basa en privacidad, procesamiento local y peticiones anónimas en la nube, pero la presión regulatoria europea vuelve a abrir una pregunta clave: ¿puede Apple ofrecer una IA profundamente integrada sin entregar acceso total a terceros? Además, repasamos qué hay realmente detrás de la colaboración con Google Gemini, cómo funcionaría el uso de modelos avanzados en la nube, por qué algunas funciones podrían depender de más memoria RAM y qué significa que Apple esté integrando una capa de inteligencia transversal dentro del sistema. Y al final, una sorpresa: Siri AI ya se me habilitó en beta. La probé con búsquedas dentro de mi biblioteca de fotos y, aunque todavía falla bastante, cuando funciona muestra hacia dónde quiere ir Apple. APPLEaks 225 viene cargado de buenas noticias, malas noticias y una señal muy clara: Apple Intelligence recién empieza, pero el camino no va a ser simple.

Finally, we know everything about iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS Golden Gate, and more. Except there is still so much to find out, and especially now that we're diving into the betas on the AppleInsider Podcast.Contact your hosts:@williamgallagher_ on Threads@WGallagher on TwitterWilliam's 58keys on YouTubeWilliam Gallagher on emailWes on BlueskyWes Hilliard on emailWes's blog HillitechSponsored by:NordStellar: Unlock your 10% discount at nordstellar.com/appleinsider with the coupon code nordappleinsider-10-NORDSTELLARScribe: Book an enterprise demo at scribe.how/appleinsiderLinks from the Show:The last good morning: Celebrities help Tim Cook start WWDCAppleInsider at Apple Park before the WWDC 2026 keynoteRevamped parental controls are coming to iPhone, Mac, and MoreNew, more personal Siri AI is set to arrive in 2026Apple's new foundation models don't contain a drop of GeminiApple's expanded child safety features aren't going to protect kids from everythingLiquid Glass changes in macOS 27 are minorSpatial Reframe in iOS 27 is a neat trick that creates nightmare fuel right nowHands on with AirPods EQ settings in iOS 27Image Playground gets realistic AI image generation in iOS 27macOS Golden Gate menus revert to having no icons by each item, as it should bePretty trees and Local Lists: Apple Maps gets a big upgrade in iOS 27Expect more controllers & objects for Apple Vision Pro thanks to visionOS 27Hands on: iPadOS 27's shortcut builder creates automations from plain EnglishmacOS 27 'Golden Gate' delivers more Liquid Glass and updated SiriiOS 27 gets better Liquid Glass and more responsivenessLiquid Glass customization & better Apple Intelligence arrive with iPadOS 27Spatial computing & Apple Intelligence upgrades collide in visionOS 27Coaching, wellness features & AI make the biggest impact in watchOS 27tvOS 27 sneaks out with redesigned Podcasts app & AI subtitle generationApple Vision Pro's biggest problem isn't addressed in visionOS 27, but progress is progress  iOS 27 keeps iPhone 11 and newer compatibilitymacOS 27 compatibility list focuses entirely on Apple SiliconwatchOS 27 supported by just six Apple Watch modelsiPadOS 27 cuts off a few favorite iPad models For the first time in four years, tvOS cuts off some older Apple TV hardwareSupport the show:Support the show on Patreon or Apple Podcasts to get ad-free episodes every week, access to our private Discord channel, and early release of the show!

What do you know about Iran?This article was written by a 26-yr old college student by the name of Alyssa Ahlgren, who's in grad school for her MBA. What a GREAT perspectiveMy Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us!I'm sitting in a small coffee shop near Nokomis (Florida) trying to think of what to write about. I scroll through my newsfeed on my phone looking at the latest headlines of presidential candidates calling for policies to "fix" the so-called injustices of capitalism. I put my phone down and continue to look around.I see people talking freely, working on their MacBook's, ordering food they get in an instant, seeing cars go by outside, and it dawned on me. We live in the most privileged time in the most prosperous nation and we've become completely blind to it.Vehicles, food, technology, freedom to associate with whom we choose. These things are so ingrained in our American way of life we don't give them a second thought.We are so well off here in the United States that our poverty line begins 31 times above the global average. Thirty One Times!!!Virtually no one in the United States is considered poor by global standards. Yet, in a time where we can order a product off Amazon with one click and have it at our doorstep the next day, we are unappreciative, unsatisfied, and ungrateful. ??Our unappreciation is evident as the popularity of socialist policies among my generation continues to grow. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently said to Newsweek talking about the millennial generation, "An entire generation, which is now becoming one of the largest electorates in America, came of age and never saw American prosperity."Never saw American prosperity! Let that sink in.When I first read that statement, I thought to myself, that was quite literally the most entitled and factually illiterate thing I've ever heard in my 26 years on this earth. Many young people agree with her, which is entirely misguided.My generation is being indoctrinated by a mainstream narrative to actually believe we have never seen prosperity. I know this first hand, I went to college, let's just say I didn't have the popular opinion, but I digress.Why then, with all of the overwhelming evidence around us, evidence that I can even see sitting at a coffee shop, do we not view this as prosperity? We have people who are dying to get into our country.People around the world destitute and truly impoverished. Yet, we have a young generation convinced they've never seen prosperity, and as a result, we elect some politicians who are dead set on taking steps towards abolishing capitalism.Why? The answer is this,?? my generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast. We didn't live in the great depression, or live through two world wars, the Korean War, The Vietnam War or we didn't see the rise and fall of socialism and communism.We don't know what it's like to live without the internet, without cars, without smartphones. We don't have a lack of prosperity problem. We have an entitlement problem, an ungratefulness problem, and it's spreading like a plague."See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Wallah Krise! Zwei Drittel des fast Erfolgspodcasts Baywatch Berlin sind erschöpft: die Aufzeichnungen zu „Wer stiehlt mir die Show“ sind auf dem Endspurt und ganz Florida TV muss schuften bis das MacBook qualmt. Wallah Krise! Vor allem für den Geldbeutel von Schmitti und Jakob, die die frisch verdienten Euronen direkt in sinnlose Onlinekäufe, in der Hoffnung auf ein kleines, flüchtiges Glück reinvestieren. Express-Weihnachten als Endorphin-Zwischensnack. Wallah Krise auf dem Fallschirm Platz! Da hat Klaas endlich mal einen, der sein Hobby mit ihm ausprobieren will und dann das! Helikopter Landung, blutverschmierter Rasen und zwei Ärzte die nicht die Bandagen zücken, sondern den Kärcher. Kein guter Serviervorschlag für den Promi, der da mit Klaas den ersten Sprung machen soll… Wallah Krise auch bei „Rock am Ring“! Nicht genug damit, dass man dort im Backstage inzwischen mehr Blutdruck Senker und Arthrose-Strümpfe verteilt als Kokain und Dosenbier - Nein! Ein anderer Skandal überschattet nun das Festival: ein unverfrorener Trichter-Scheißer treibt sein Unwesen. Lässiger Szenespaß unter Ringrockern oder Abscheulichkeit? Hier ist ein klares Statement gefragt. Wallah Krise! Wer diese Ausgabe nicht die ganze Woche auf „repeat“ hört - wer das jetzt für absolut sinnfrei hält, der hat damit vielleicht ein neues Hobby gefunden.

macOS 27 Golden Gate ya está acá y en este video te muestro mis primeras impresiones reales usando la beta en un MacBook Pro M4 Pro.Este nuevo sistema marca una de las transformaciones visuales más importantes de los últimos años, con el nuevo diseño tipo Liquid Glass, iconos renovados, transparencias, efectos de vidrio, modo oscuro mejorado y una interfaz que se siente mucho más moderna.También probamos el rendimiento general del sistema, la apertura de aplicaciones, los cambios en Preview, Mapas, Safari, Clima y especialmente la nueva experiencia de Fotos con herramientas de inteligencia artificial como Clean Up, reencuadre inteligente y extensión de imagen.Además, hablamos de uno de los grandes temas pendientes: Siri AI y Apple Intelligence. Aunque macOS 27 promete integrar una IA más transversal en todo el sistema, por ahora sigue habiendo lista de espera y muchas funciones todavía no están disponibles para todos.

Your iPhone might be running hot and draining fast — and it’s not just you. Dave and Pilot Pete break down the battery chaos introduced by iOS 26.5, which brought overheating, accelerated drain, and even blocked wired charging on iPhone 17 and Air models. The fix that’s working for most people: disable iCloud Keychain first, run Reset All Settings, then carefully re-enable iCloud sync — otherwise you’ll nuke your Wi-Fi passwords across every device. iOS 26.5.1 is out and should help, but until you’ve updated, your electrons deserve better. You’ll also learn why Apple ID passkeys are locked to Apple’s own keychain with no known path to third-party managers like 1Password or Keeper, and why editing a contact on a modern Mac can somehow peg every CPU core — in 2026, no less. From there, Dave and Pete tackle the full listener mailbag: how to rescue missing contact names from Messages, the right way to boot a MacBook with a broken display into clamshell mode so it actually uses the external monitor, and a deep dive on 5K vs. 4K displays where Dave argues your eyes may not care as much as the pixel-per-inch math suggests. You’ll get smart ideas for repurposing a 2015 iPad Pro that can’t run modern apps — including Dave’s Claude Code-built weather dashboard running off a headless iMac as a web interface. A crashing 2021 MacBook Pro turns out to have been felled by a single bad SD card, and the lesson is golden: feed your crash reports to an LLM and let it do the digging. And Don’t Get Caught with outdated OpenAI macOS apps — update ChatGPT, Codex, Atlas, and Codex CLI before June 12th to stay ahead of a code-signing rotation triggered by a compromised open-source library. 00:00:00 Mac Geek Gab 1145 for Monday, June 8th, 2026 June 8th: National Best Friends Day MGG Monthly Giveaway – Win a license to SaneBox Quick Tips 00:00:01 Dan-QT-Multi-select on iPhone with a quick drag 00:04:31 Tim-QT-Have iOS 26.5 Battery Drain?

This week on Grumpy Old Geeks, Brian and Jason once again survey the smoldering wreckage of the tech industry and discover that the people building the future are increasingly being sued by governments, publishers, customers, employees, and occasionally reality itself. California is coming after 23andMe over its catastrophic data breach, Florida is taking a swing at OpenAI, CNN has joined the ever-growing conga line of companies suing Perplexity, and Meta somehow decided the solution to improving AI is recording employees' every mouse click while generously allowing them a whole 30-minute privacy break. Meanwhile, Google's own engineers are sharing memes about how much Google's AI tools suck, Microsoft apparently wants users addicted to its new AI assistant - first taste's free! - and Anthropic is preparing to go public with a valuation that makes even the most irrational dot-com era investor look financially responsible.The AI arms race continues producing exactly the kinds of outcomes you'd expect when venture capitalists start huffing their own press releases. Instagram's AI support bot reportedly helped hackers steal accounts because apparently "Are you sure you're the owner?" was considered an optional step. Suno raised another $400 million while fighting copyright lawsuits, Paramount+ seems to have let AI create the ugliest Star Trek thumbnail in Federation history, and Stan Lee has now been digitally resurrected because modern capitalism looked at death and said, "Nice try." Over in transportation, BYD is so confident in its self-driving technology that it's willing to pay for your accidents, while Tesla owners are discovering their old Full Self-Driving contracts may have quietly received software updates of the legal variety. Somewhere in a conference room, a lawyer just whispered, "Let's not put that in writing," ten years too late.Elsewhere, governments worldwide continue their ongoing experiment of raising children by confiscating smartphones. Malaysia has implemented a social media ban for kids under 16, Poland wants phones and smartwatches locked away at school, and Kentucky schools just collected $27 million from social media companies accused of building products as addictive as cigarettes.Dave Bittner drops by for a visit and we discuss Spotify listeners apparently preferring old music because new music keeps getting algorithmically focus-grouped into oblivion and a healthy dose of Star Wars, Downton Abbey, Derry Girls, Lego, books, gadgets, and AI-generated jazz. Add it all up and you've got another week where the only thing moving faster than technology is the legal department trying to keep up.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.Shopify - Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at Shopify.com/grumpyPrivate Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Recent data from IDC indicates that Apple has successfully entered the mainstream laptop market with the launch of its MacBook Neo. The device achieved significant early momentum by shipping 1.1 million units during its initial weeks of availability. This strategic move targets budget-conscious buyers who typically purchase Windows-based machines from competitors like Dell and HP. By leveraging optimized silicon technology and more accessible pricing, Apple is challenging the long-standing dominance of traditional PC manufacturers. Analysts suggest this shift could permanently alter industry dynamics if Apple maintains its sales velocity through upcoming shopping seasons. Ultimately, the Neo's debut represents a major effort to expand the Apple ecosystem beyond its traditional high-end niche.

The MacBook Neo shipped 1.1 million units in its first weeks on sale, IDC estimates, as Apple pushes deeper into the mainstream laptop market. Also, Meta told TechCrunch that it's considering ways to monetize the new feature, but didn't share specifics on what that could look like. And X will now let you 'react with video' to posts.

Apple estaría preparando uno de los cambios más grandes de los últimos años… y esta vez no se trata solo de diseño, colores o pequeñas mejoras.En este nuevo APPLEaks, analizamos cómo iOS 27, la nueva generación de Siri, Apple Intelligence, los futuros iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max y el esperado iPhone Fold podrían formar parte de una misma estrategia: llevar cada vez más inteligencia artificial al dispositivo, con procesamiento local, más memoria, más almacenamiento y modelos mucho más potentes funcionando dentro del ecosistema Apple.Pero ojo, porque lo que al principio suena como una gran noticia también puede traer una consecuencia bastante incómoda: muchos usuarios podrían quedarse afuera de las funciones más avanzadas si no tienen un iPhone reciente. También hablamos del futuro de las Mac con Apple Silicon, el final progresivo de Rosetta 2, las posibles novedades de watchOS 27, los nuevos HomePod, Apple TV, Mac Studio y Mac Mini, además de los rumores más fuertes sobre gafas inteligentes estilo Ray-Ban, servidores con chips NVIDIA, cámaras más avanzadas para el iPhone 18 Pro y las primeras filtraciones del iPhone Fold.

https://youtu.be/sUyjA0muVgM Tom Kirkham, Founder and CEO of Kirkham IronTech, believes business should create value for everyone involved — employees, clients, vendors, and the broader community. After overcoming major personal challenges and rebuilding his perspective on leadership, Tom embraced stakeholder capitalism and built a company culture focused on long-term partnerships, trust, and continuous learning. In this conversation, Tom shares the IronTech Framework — a practical approach to modern IT management built around three core pillars: Generate ROI and Productivity, Make Cybersecurity Core, and Surround it with a Governance Layer. He explains why businesses should stop treating IT as an expense and instead view it as a strategic investment that improves productivity, protects the company from cyber threats, and aligns technology with leadership goals. Tom also dives into the massive scale of the cybercrime industry, why governance is often the missing piece in cybersecurity, and how proactive IT strategy can dramatically improve business performance. — Turn Your IT into Your Growth Engine with Tom Kirkham Good day. Steve Preda here with the Management Blueprint Podcast, and today’s guest is Tom Kirkham, the Founder and CEO of Kirkham IronTech, where he helps businesses build strong, secure IT foundations, whether fully managed, co-managed, or cybersecurity only. Tom is a keynote speaker on cybersecurity, and he’s the author of two books, Hack the Rich and The Cyber Pandemic. Tom, welcome to the show.  Oh, it’s great to be here, Steve.  Well, great to have you here. And I am curious to dive in, and would like to ask you my favorite question. What is your personal ‘Why’, and how are you manifesting it in Kirkham IronTech?  That’s a great question. So the company’s about twenty-six years old. I went through a lot of personal health problems, and then my wife was real sick, and she ended up passing away—it's been about eleven years ago now. And I was fortunate enough to put a friend of mine in the company, and he was able to take over while I was dealing with this for a couple of years. And when most of it was done, I took some time off and did a lot of traveling and a lot of thinking and a lot of reading. And I’m a lifelong reader, a lifelong learner, and I went back through my history of investing techniques, understanding what makes a good company great. If you’ve read Jim Collins, you know what I’m talking about. And so during those times, I was reflecting, studying philosophy, studying biographies of other CEOs like Elon Musk, Steve Jobs, Andy Grove—gosh, the list goes on and on. Whether you like them or hate them, it doesn’t matter, right? There’s always something you can learn. And I came upon and read a lot about stakeholder capitalism. Like Peter Drucker says, “Culture eats strategy for breakfast.” And I understood what that meant, and it was kind of weird. So when I re-engaged with the company, I identified one of the weaknesses, and I said, “Well, if we need to do marketing in this business—which we have to do in any business—I really need to master marketing.” So I spent a lot of time with marketing gurus, most of them are what I would consider household names these days, and re-engaged with the company to do marketing to establish a great culture around stakeholder capitalism. In other words, we exist as a for-profit business not just for the shareholders but for everyone—the community, vendors, employees. And I really wanted to be around people I enjoyed being around. I wanted them to enjoy coming into work.Share on X And so we’ve been trying to perfect that system in the culture for the past ten years. Of course, no one's perfect, but if you pursue perfection, you can achieve excellence. And I think we've done a really good job. We have very low turnover. Everyone seems genuinely happy to be there, and it's really fulfilling. It's more of a personal feeling because I've been a successful investor practically my whole adult life. I started investing in stocks when I was nineteen, and I'm sixty-four now. So I didn't really need the company. I could have just closed it up or sold it or whatever. But I really wanted to have my own reasons. Those are the things that drive me, and I hope they drive everyone else too.  What resonated with you with this idea of stakeholder capitalism? It just made sense. The obvious part is with employees—all of that is true. That's obvious to any good leader or manager, right? As you well know, there's a difference between leadership and management, and understanding that distinction, and the difference between sales and marketing, and understanding those things. A good example is dealing with vendors. There are all sorts of vendors that supply products and services to us, so we carefully vet these tools and vendors to see if their values align with ours, just like we do with prospects. But especially with vendors, if it's something new—a new tool that we're going to invest a lot of time, money, and energy into to make their product or service successful for us and successful for them—we make a commitment to that vendor.  So it's not about the money or how cheap I can get it. What I want is a good partnership with every stakeholder. And I want to make sure that when I'm dealing with a vendor, if it fails for us, it's not our fault—it's their fault, right? Either they oversold the product or they didn't deliver on the service component. I didn't want it to be because we failed to do the right training, or didn't communicate properly, or missed all the other things that are just part of doing business the right way. And that applies to our employees, our local community, and every stakeholder in the company.  Yeah. I like it. So you're looking for partnership-based relationships where it's win-win. And yeah, if you want people to stick around, it has to make sense for them too. You can't exploit your partners forever without consequences. So that makes a lot of sense. So Tom, let me ask you this other question. This podcast is called The Management Blueprint because I'm always looking for frameworks—something practical that helps businesses achieve results. Usually it's some kind of three-to-five-step process that helps you grow the business, get customers, improve operations, or understand something at a deeper level. So when I ask about your favorite business framework, what comes to mind?  Well, we have a thing we call the IronTech Framework.  Okay.  And it was something that we came up with many years ago and started practicing seven or eight years ago, and it's a framework. It's like the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. I looked at NIST and there's five components to it, and it's about cybersecurity. And I looked at this and I go, “None of this works without the right policies and procedures in place.” The security training—it's not enough just to throw it out there and tell all your people to take it. You've got to follow up, you've got to manage, and coach, and everything like that. And so I started adding this governance component to the way we sold it, presented it, and practiced what we do for our clients day in and day out. Help them develop the policies and procedures for all of the different things, the protocols.  If somebody accidentally fires off a ransomware attack, they need to know they're not going to be penalized for it. We need to know as soon as possible to stop it. And just little things like that, there's a lot that really improve the effectiveness of all of these tools and services that we provide to their clients. And unbeknownst to me, NIST, who has the cybersecurity framework, they added governance about three years ago to the other five things. And so that was kind of nice to know that we were exhibiting some thought leadership. And so when we go in, it's all well and good if you want to put these protections in and these particular products, but we're a best-of-breed company. Like one of our critical tools that's required for our clients to put in place, to buy it and use it every single day on every single computer, is what's known as an EDR. And it's basically an AI-based super turbo antivirus.  To even call it an antivirus is not doing it justice. So there's three legs to the IronTech Framework. We want to make sure that you're getting a return on your investment in IT, because that's why you buy it. If you treat IT as an expense, you need to kind of change the way you're thinking. You want to improve productivity and efficiency.Share on X The second leg is cybersecurity, because a bad cyberattack can put you out of business. I think the last stats I saw were something like 40 to 60% of businesses go out of business within two years of a significant cyberattack. And then finally, the third is governance. That's the three legs of our IronTech Framework. So part of governance is engaging with our clients' management and leadership—the CEO, finance, of course the CIO, the CISO or security officer, and maybe even the board sometimes. Really getting to know: what are your objectives, and how can we utilize our services to best help your company realize those objectives? Because for most companies, there's no other vendor they engage with as much as us.  We're talking to Susie every day. We're talking to Bill every day. We know that Mary's out sick and Steve's on vacation. I mean, when you're running help desk, stopping attacks, providing training, and all the support we provide along those lines, we get to know their company better than practically any other vendor by far. So it really helps if our clients treat us as a partner to help them realize their goals and objectives. And when all of that clicks into place, then it makes recommending things easier.Share on X “Okay, you need to replace these 30 laptops that are four years old. You're not getting an ROI on them.” “This server's five years old. Let's start thinking about replacing it.” “We have this new tool that's really excellent. We're recommending everybody get it.” And because we've developed that trust, those conversations become pretty easy. For the most part, everybody just says yes. But of course, we don't sell just to sell, especially when it comes to things like hardware. That's not really what we're here for. We're here for the day-in, day-out work: keeping things running, stopping breaches, and putting the policies and procedures in place to run your company as smoothly as possible.  Yeah. I love that. So when I had an IT back in the 2000s, I had an IT person who was a contractor, but he was very active in my business, and I always wanted to talk to him and pick his brain. What are the new things out there? How can we make our business more efficient, more effective, more attractive to employees? Cooler. I wanted to be cool. So I wanted everyone to have a PDA in the early 2000s with email on it—a PalmPilot. And we had multiple screens, and I was looking at, okay, how can we manage data in the cloud and on our server so we don't have to deal with it in the office? That kind of stuff. And I really thought about it as a great investment because it was much cheaper than hiring people. And if you give people good tools, they're going to be more motivated and more effective. So I thought it was a no-brainer.  Yes, but there's still a subset of people that treat IT as an expense. Then there are some companies that tend to put IT under the finance guy because the finance guy usually has a lot of IT experience, but never actually did it as a career or a job, right? And those situations are hard because I need CEO-level or owner-level approval, and I need a direct route to that person.  Yeah, that makes sense. So Tom, tell me, what drives growth in your business?  Yeah. From a growth perspective, for us, number one is maintaining our clients and reducing churn. Number two is—I don't know if you're asking about tactics or strategy—but of course we want to get new clients for the right reasons. So we prefer inbound strategies. We don't cold call people unless we've already contacted them in another way, if that's what you're asking.  Yeah. I'm asking what the real driver of growth is. I understand that you do marketing and inbound marketing, but what makes people want to have an IT service partner like you? Well, they understand those three pillars of the IronTech Framework. They may not believe in stakeholder capitalism, but they don't treat IT as an expense. And they understand—especially after talking to me—the true risk of being hacked. A lot of people don't understand the size and scale of that industry. It's a $10 to $12 trillion industry now.  Wow.  If it were a country, it would have the third-largest GDP. The US would be first, China second, and then the hacking industry. It is an industry that hacks at scale. So when these companies—maybe a small 10-person accounting firm in North Dakota in the middle of nowhere—get these ransomware emails and someone tries to hack them, and we alert on it and trap it, and nothing goes wrong, everything's fine… If they don't already understand it, they go, “Well, why are they trying to hack me?” And I say, “You don't understand. That email was one of 100,000 emails that got blasted out. They don't know who you are, nor do they care who you are.” They're playing a numbers game. And it's kind of like marketing. They're looking at conversion numbers. Yeah.  Let's say it's 100,000 emails. They got a list of all the certified public accountants in 10 different states. They set up the email, they send it all out, and let's say 1% become victims. And let's say they collect an average of $10,000 per victim. Well, that's a multi-million dollar payday for about a week or two of work. And then they rinse and repeat. It's done at scale, and it's a much bigger industry than that. That's just a taste of it. Some of our clients are targeted. In other words, hackers are investing time, money, and energy specifically into that company. We're one of them. Any law firm that does intellectual property law—especially around patents, manufacturing, and things like that—you've got China and other nation states not only trying to get into your client, but you're also a threat vector. You're a way to get into that client's patents and secrets.  So we've got to treat that differently. It's not just about the money. There are different types of threat actors, and we have to educate clients, bring them up to speed, and say, “Well, because of this case, you need this other service and tool that we're offering to prevent China from breaking in.” Or, “You need to follow this practice.” Maybe you don't publicly talk about one of your clients being Ford Motor Company or NVIDIA. You just keep that quiet. You don’t want that to be public knowledge. That's one of the things we do. You spent time on our website, and you didn't see a single client name on there. And that's just one of the small things we do to protect our clients' security and privacy, because privacy and security go hand in hand. Yeah. That is fascinating. So what is it that you’re trying to figure out in your business right now? What’s the big thing for you?  I think because of all the chaos in the United States, making a decision to do anything—everybody's kind of frozen. There are a lot of hiring freezes. I know we've got a freeze on right now because we're looking to see, well, do we really need to add somebody, or can we do this with AI? The hackers do the same thing. That's one of the challenges, is getting people over the hump. No matter what you do, if you've got an IT company doing your stuff and you only call them when things are broken, there's a much more profitable way to do that. You're spending more money.  So there are benchmarks in industries, right? Basically, the research—and these aren't numbers we made up, this is legitimate research from many independent sources—says the average professional service provider, like law firms, accounting firms, healthcare providers, and on and on, should be spending 6 to 12% of their revenue on IT and cybersecurity. And that's everything. I'm talking servers, wiring, cloud, security, defense—all of those things should be 6 to 12%. We know that. That's the way it works. So when we engage with a prospect and find out they're only spending 3 or 4%, then I already know they have gaps. I don't even have to do an assessment to see what they're not doing.  They're either not getting a return on investment, or they're not secure. That's it. If all the accounting firms are spending 6%, and you're only spending 4%, don't just pat yourself on the back. That's one of those moments where you should ask, “What am I missing?” Because I do that often. Someone on the management team will come up with an idea, and we all agree. Well, that's a red flag for me. I want to know: what are we missing? If we all agree on this, is there some gotcha or something we haven't uncovered? And those are some of the things we try to educate our clients on. They don't have to tell us their revenue. I can give them the numbers. I can do the math. I can show them the numbers for something like laptop replacement. Maybe it's $1,000 to $3,000 depending on the industry. If the employee using that laptop is making $100,000 a year, why are you trying to squeeze another year out of a $2,000 investment when it's hurting productivity by 10% or more? Yeah. That’s a no-brainer.  Yeah. It should be.  Yeah. It's not just in IT. I had a client years ago in civil engineering, and they had a rule that they would never keep equipment longer than four years. And they were selling equipment that still looked brand new. And I asked them, “Why are you doing this? It seems like this equipment still has a lot of life left in it. Why are you selling it or giving it back to the lease company?” And he said, “We did the math, and we figured out that this is the optimal time to replace it.” If they got rid of the equipment at that point, they wouldn't have to deal with fixing it. There would be less disruption. They would stay state-of-the-art all the time. And their clients would be impressed. And it actually worked for them. It was a high-margin civil engineering firm.  Precisely. I mean, we're so tuned into that that we're a Mac house. We all use Macs. We all have laptops, and we all have setups with screens at home and in the office. We spare no expense on that. If somebody wants an extra screen for their house—alright, here it is. We'll order it and get it there for you. We're so tuned into that, that we went all Mac back when they were still Intel Macs. And I don't know how much you know about Macs, but they were…  I have a couple. Okay. Yeah, we're Mac people too. Yeah, so they were running Intel processors. Well, Apple decided to build their own processor and moved to the M-chip. And so I bought an M1, and it was like, holy cow, everybody in the company has got to have one of these. And I don't think there was a single one more than two years old at that time. So we replaced them all. Now, the M-series generations themselves—M1, M2, M3, and on—those changes aren't as dramatic as going from Intel to the first M-series chip. But it's still unusual. I said two years, but there are probably people right now with a three-year-old laptop. But we definitely trade them in. That's where the sweet spot is on trade-in value. We rotate them every two to three years and they're out. I think mine is maybe a year old, but I'll probably keep this one for a couple more years.  By the way, you're the first IT company and MSP I've met that doesn't use PCs—you use Macs. Yeah. And I long had this theory that all the IT companies I worked with were always anti-Mac, and I never understood why. And when I got my first Mac, I realized I actually didn't need them anymore since I had the Mac.  Yeah, that's kind of funny because it really started with me during Covid. It may not have been seven years now, but whatever it was, it kind of started with Covid. And for years I was a PC guy. I tried Macs briefly back in the old MacBook days—you know, the white plastic ones? Whatever that was, 15 or more years ago.  Yeah. Classic. Very classic.  Yeah. But what I kept trying to do with a Windows laptop—and I like Dell, I had Dell XPSs, good Dell computers, and we're a Dell partner— What I could never get a Windows computer to do was seamlessly come off a docking station and then plug into another monitor at my house. It would always blue screen or something. So when I went back to a Mac, I was like, “Holy cow, it doesn't break. It doesn't mind being unplugged from a docking station. It just works.” Yeah.  And then all the other things—that they're generally built better, they have a longer lifespan, and they hold their resale value longer, and all of that. Even as old as I was, I forced myself to really get proficient at using a Mac. And when we sent everybody home during Covid, I said, “Well, everybody's going Mac.” And, oh, there was a revolt. And I said, “Just give it a few months.”  Yeah.  About half the office resisted it. And I said, “You gotta try it because I think you'll like it, and if you don't, then we'll deal with it then.” We had Linux people, PC people. So then I said, “Well, maybe we should open it up and let people pick what they want.” Yeah, I love it. Yeah. So our time is coming to an end, but if someone is running on Mac and they're finally talking to an IT service company that's not anti-Mac, and they want to connect with you immediately, where should they go and where can they learn more about Kirkham IronTech and maybe connect with you personally? The website is the best place to go. It's www.kirkhamirontech.com. Just give us a call, fill out a form, let us know what you're thinking, because we want to know what you're thinking and see if there's a fit with the way we do things. Macs started becoming important with executives. That's where we first started seeing it. So even though they may still have to run Windows, the owners and executives wanted to carry Macs for the very reasons I mentioned. So we're perfectly happy with that.  Yeah. Okay. Very good. So if you're listening to this and you enjoyed hearing about how to make your IT work—how to increase ROI, make sure you're doing cybersecurity right, and implement governance so you can use IT as a strategic tool to run your business better—then definitely reach out to Tom Kirkham. Or stay tuned to this show, because you're going to hear from other entrepreneurs who are very smart about business. And preferably do both. Tom, thank you for coming and sharing your wisdom, and thank you for listening.  Oh, it’s been my pleasure, Steve. Important Links: Tom's LinkedIn Tom's website

This week on The Tragically Hip On Shuffle, we cracked open 'Coffee Girl' - the fourth track and second single off "We Are the Same" (2009), produced by Bob Rock. On the TTHTop40 Countdown, it clocks in at number 53. It's been played live 78 times, last appearing on the final tour on July 30, 2016.Joining me for this one were two members of west coast tribute act Gift Shop - Craig from Langley and Ian from Maple Ridge - plus returning guest Tim from Columbus, host of the Dig Me Out Podcast. Two-fifths of Gift Shop, for the record. You can't reduce that fraction without going to decimal points, and you just can't do that.What we got into:The pre-release Bathhouse recording - recorded April 6, 2009, the day before the album dropped - was our jumping-off point, and it unlocked a lot. Organ instead of trumpet. A looser, jammier feel. Multiple gaffes and weirdness. And somehow, the bones of the song were all already there.From there the conversation ranged wide. Tim came in with a clear-eyed critique - the drum loop feels mechanical, the melody doesn't shift from verse to chorus, and he wishes Robbie Robertson had gone slide guitar instead of brass. It's a good song for most bands, he said. For The Hip, it's below average. Gauntlet dropped.Craig pushed back from a different angle - the musicality. He broke down why 'Coffee Girl' is so easy to listen to: it's in C major, four chords (F, C, Am, G), and it never deviates once. The chorus just drops the C. The fade-out isn't laziness - it's because there's no satisfying harmonic resolution to this story, and Craig walked through why Gift Shop ends it on a G (a half cadence) while The Hip's Abbotsford version lands on an A minor (a deceptive cadence). Genuinely great music nerd territory.Ian brought the emotional case for the album as a whole - the deliberate smoothness of the production, the loss of grit that divided fans, and why he thinks people owe "We Are the Same" a deeper listen than most gave it. He also flagged Derry Byrne - the trumpet player on the track - as a Kitsilano local who plays with the Jill Townsend Jazz Orchestra. And he introduced a darker reading of the lyrics: is the coffee girl cautious for a reason? Is there something more unsettling running beneath the surface of an otherwise easy, sunny song?That lyric conversation went deep. We talked about Gord's love of people-watching - including jD's two separate sightings of Gord at a Timothy's on the Danforth with his MacBook, pecking away at the window. We talked about Craig's memory of seeing the album's theatre release the night before it came out, seven months after his first kid was born, and how that version of 'Coffee Girl' was the first time he ever heard the song. And we talked about whether the mixtape-with-classic-Beck line ages anyone else as hard as it aged us.The poll results this week showed about 25% of Hip fans in the Facebook group feeling negative or indifferent about 'Coffee Girl.' Not surprising - but Ian made the case for patience, and he made it well.Next week: 'Wheat Kings.' Top 10 on the countdown. If there was ever a song that screams Canadiana - and there never is a time to wave a flag at a Hip show, but if there were - it's that one.Guests this week:Gift Shop - West coast Tragically Hip tribute act featuring Craig and Ian. Catch them live on August 20, 2026 at the Hollywood Theatre in Kitsilano, BC - the ten-year anniversary of the final show. Deep cuts guaranteed. At least one song off "We Are the Same." Possibly with Derry Byrne sitting in on trumpet.
