Hi, this is Allison Sheridan of the NosillaCast Apple Podcast, hosted at Podfeet.com, a technology geek podcast with an EVER so slight Apple bias. Today is Sunday, April 2, 2023, and this is show number 934.

Steve and I spent a rare weekend with our entire family – Kyle and his family flew in from Texas and we all converged at Lindsay’s house to celebrate her daughter Siena’s third birthday. I even got to see my brother Grant, so it was positively perfect.

But don’t worry about the show – we have lots of content for you. We’ve got two really interesting interviews from the CSUN Assistive Tech Conference, recorded and edited by Steve. Remember on these interviews the audio is great because we record them as though everyone is blind, but you can also watch the video version of the interviews at links in the show notes.

Barry Fulk is here to tell you why you probably want to come to Macstock in July a day early because of the Midwest Mac BBQ and Wine Tasting event.

Jill from the Northwoods steps in with a review of a cool app she’s been using on her iPad for a long time, and Bart Busschots finishes us off with a very tame Security Bits.

Corkulous for Organizing Ideas – by Jill from the Northwoods

Thanks for the great review, Jill! I looked into Corkulous and it turns out you can still use Corkulous for free with the Basic version on iPad (or Mac). With the Basic version, you get just three boards, which makes it a great way to find out if Corkulous will work the way you think.

Check out Corkulous at www.corkulous.com/… (with a weird spelling!)

Support the Show

This week Trevor Drover did something cool with Patreon. He changed the currency of his support from US dollars to Australian dollars where he actually lives. I think it’s excellent that Patreon lets you pick the currency that makes sense to you. So instead of some weird monthly payment, it’s a proper round number for your ledger.

A dear friend of mine in real life became the newest patron of the Podfeet Podcasts. She brings me delicious home-made baked goods, which I thought were payment enough, but she went to podfeet.com/patreon and pledged an amount (in the currency of her choosing) that showed the value she gets from all of the shows.

Thank you to Trevor for his continued patronage, and thanks for the treats and the new pledge from my IRL friend!
