Also, I have been hosting a Mac Apple podcast now for 10 years. To do that I think you can’t be considered anything other than a fanatic. But how did I get here? Today I’ll share my journey.

A podcast about all things Macintosh. For Mac geeks, by Mac geeks. Special episode. Happy new year. I’m working hard on the first episode of the tenth season of the Maccast, but the holidays and a nasty round of could and flu has slowed me down just a bit. The new show should be out soon, but to tide you over I wanted to share a recent episode from the Maccast Member feed on Signatures in Mail. Talk to you soon.

Maccast Members 169 – Plex

A podcast about all things Macintosh. For Mac geeks, by Mac geeks. Episode 169. I have been loading more and more content into my iTunes Library using iVI Pro, but tech geeks I know who are really into this home theater stuff all seem to be big fans of Plex. Plex is more open and available on many platforms, built into NAS devices, and even on set top boxes like the Roku and Chromecast. I thought I should at least give it a try, so this episode dives into my experience and thoughts on setting up a Plex Home Media Server.
