Yeah, so Apple threw some stuff to the wind, namely their typical secretive attitude towards press announcements, and that’s got people all in a tizzy. Why did they tell us what they’re covering? Why did they change it up this year? Why are people making a big deal about it? We all know they’re gonna [...]

When you’ve got a reputation for making exquisitely designed notebooks and drawing pads, to launch your latest collection of travel gear a starchy press release just won’t do.

You see, contrary to their questionable actions France doesn’t really hate the Internet and the freedoms that come with it. Quite the contrary! On the last episode of the podcast, [...]

We all know doing hard time sucks. Well, that’s the rumor anyway. I’m the product of a middle class suburban household. Moving on.
