This week was a long one! Not only did Marques, Andrew, and David discuss the killing of Google Podcasts (shocker), Spotify using AI to translate podcasts, and iPhone 15 overheating issues, but they also go over everything from last weeks Microsoft event and the Meta event. Techtember is ending with a bang and the busy season rolls right through into Techtober with no break! The gadgets just keeping coming. Hope you enjoy!
Editor’s Note: I messed up Andrew’s score in the video graphic. He actually has 5!

Here for the double David
The discussion about milk bottles. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
In a 100 years those AI generated faces in pictures will be the subject of so many creepypastas.
Titanium is half the density of steel. It is more malleable, more flexible. Guess that's why those easy breaks are happening. Honestly, this release is a dumpster fire.
44:49 that got me 😂
Imagine your car breaks down and you ask your google glass how to fix it. It gives you the probable cost and, since it would be linked to your bank account, recommends you to buy a bus card instead since it knows you can't afford it.
Remember the time when some guy allegedly interviewed Michael Schumacher and then later revealed that he used AI to do that…?
on the heat issues and battery consumption, I find Instagram makes my 13 pro max hot and burn through more battery. I'm guessing the heat issues are a software thing as you guys suggested that is for whatever reason causing the cpu to spin up to 100% utilisation for no reason
The pixel fold sort of had something like the iPhone 15 overheating thing for a little while.
I'm not sure which update fixed it but I haven't had that issue with my fold for a while.
Assuming the iPhone 15 issue will be fixed with some sort of update?
the way i had the same reaction when marq said Pluto and its not the dog
All photos are lies. It is impossible to capture human perception of a moment. You're always framing things out. The colors always look different. All photos are art. The camera is just the tool.
Sorry… Google Glass is ahead of its time, but its design is crap. Meta made the right choice to make the glasses inconspicuous.
Face swap is highlighting the point that photos are really art as much as moments. The only person who will know the face swap will be the photo editor. Therefore, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder"
The paper clip and floppy disk thing about how kids these days don't know what they are reminded me of this article I published in my Ph.D. where we interviewed college students and ask them to identify the objects in computer icons. One of the kids "identified" the floppy disk as a fridge! When we asked him why he thinks it's a fridge, he said "well, that's where you save things!" lol
The putting smiles on people's faces seems very Black Mirror-like to me.
I think there is a use-case for creative tools like photoshop, but also an argument that 'what people want' can sometimes be contradict other 'wants'. E.g. Ask them "When you take photos of your family, would you like to document the activity 'as it was' or some imagined version? I think that they would say "as it was". Yet, if you give them a tool like this I think they would be compelled to put a smile on a friend/child's face even if the friend/child was unhappy in actuality. I feel like looking back it would then give a false depiction of what actually occurred and be pretty sad to have lost those 'demon face' moments.
I have family members that regularly have straight faces during photos. I don't imagine they would be very stoked to see relatives plopping giant smiles on their face haha.
I'm pretty sure each surface device comes out like every 2 years
Where do I get that iPhone wallpaper
Quit talking over each other. When two talk at once, neither is heard.
Neil Tyson's gonna be disappointed when he hears y'all calling Pluto a planet 🙁 1:26:00
ChaCha actually mean Uncle in some Indian languages!
Apple needs to develop intelligent undervolt technology
Technically this isn’t a podcast. It’s a video of the recording of a podcast. 😏 🙃
The transparency mode is horrible i call support because i thought there was a bug and wanted to downgrade the update
If the cells in your face have enough time to die and replace, then it’s technically not the same person anymore. That’s the line 😂
WVFRM Podcast > WAN Show.
Haha love the podcast, just gotta say as an Australian I find it hilarious every time an American says Emu. It’s e-mew not e-moo. 😂
Can I just say… I don’t want AI assistants to be a thing🙃🙃 like the annoying Snapchat thing?
1:41:18 Swapping the audio at the end bit threw me off so much
I think that glass on the back of the pro max broke bc the frame is more rigid and that more of the force is going to the glass than previous phones bc the titanium is a more rigid or the frame is just stronger if you watch that video close the chassis doesn’t actually bend the glass just shattered from stress
Or maybe making the class more scratch resistant makes the glass harder and more brittle
that ball at the cybertruck being your brain with neuralink is so poignant.
I'm still pi$$'d at Zuck for ending MySpace
Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!! 👑🇯🇲🔥💥🌟⭐💯💎
I think the overheating has to do with iOS. Since I got iOS17 my iPhone is getting really warm, when it charges over MagSafe. It also can be overheating because I'm setting up this new voice thing at the same time. But if the iPhone is too warm you can recieve a message like "Your iPhone is getting really warm. The charging will continue if the temperature falls down to a normal level." or something like that. I'm using the iPhone 13 pro max. Never had this issue before.
WHAAAAATTTT you went to the Solomon pond mall???? i thought i saw you but i couldnt believe my eyes
Do you need a dedicated AI chip? Some ML can use the graphics card.
His voice is annoying bruh… Stayed here for only marq
6:26 you have no idea how annoying It is when you cant turn that thing off, specially in shorts
You can adjust the levels of transparency mode in the settings you are welcome
17:53 this dudes always saying the worst , they admitted there’s a problem
Ship of theseus theory is applicable for pixel 8 for sure
Clippy!
1:33:00 or maybe the whole idea of transparent mode being adaptive is actually just super useful in general
That Neuralink joke was in poor taste imo, as the primary application for neuralink are mental disability treatments. You shouldn't blame sick people for Elon having no morals. If you offer a medical treatment, you are the one who has to take responsibility, not the other way around. I honestly thought Marques would be better than going for low-blows against disabled people.
I was like wait, when did Andrew get 9?😂
IDK if it is because I’ve been listening to MKBHD for about a decade but, I can’t hear the similarities between David and Marques.
I have an iPhone 13 mini and using instagram makes my phone very hot in a few minutes.
I bought a few albums on Google play music a few years back and when the killed I lost money.
Face swaping is a great feature.
The best feature of apple camera is its "vivid filter" without it no one can tell that the photo is taken from an iPhone or any other average camera phone.
