Hi, this is Bart Busschots from Bartificer Creations guest-hosting the NosillaCast Apple Podcast, hosted at Podfeet.com, a technology geek podcast with an EVER so slight Apple bias, and for today, a more than slight Irish accent 😉 Today is Sunday, April 20, 2025, and this is show number 1041. Happy Birthday, Allison & Steve! Happy Easter to all Christian NosillaCastaways, Happy Chocolate Day to all, and Vrolijk Pasen to my fellow Dutch speakers!
Macstock Conference Coupon Code
Allison wanted me to remind you that she has a coupon code for the Macstock Conference in July outside of Chicago. She loves this conference as you probably know, and would love to see you there. The show is July 11-13 in Woodstock, Illinois. If you want to save $50, use Allison’s coupon code PODFEET50, you’ll get $50 off the conference fee (and she’ll get $25). Head over to macstockconferenceandexpo.com/… today and join in the fun.

Twelve South Book Arc and Book Arc Flex (Allister Jenks)
I want to second Allister’s recommendation of the Book Arc, I use one on my bedroom desk to keep my MacBook Pro out of the way in clamshell mode next to my Studio Display. We’re going to hear more from Allister later about another great stand from 12 South.

Twelve South Curve Riser (Allister Jenks)
I can’t second this recommendation from personal experience, but I will through in a plug for a different riser from 12 South that I do use, the Curve SE, which keeps my work laptop screen at just the right height to have it perfectly aligned with the 27″ screen plugged into it as an external display.

That’s going to wind this up for this week, but before I go, just a quick reminder that you can hear more of my Irish accent over on lets-talk.ie where I host and produce the monthly Let’s Talk Apple and Let’s Talk Photography shows giving listeners the 40K ft view of the month’s Apple News pontificating on the art and craft of photography once a month every month.
Anyway, I’m glad to say Allison will be back next week. Did you know you can email Allison at [email protected] any time you like? If you have a question or a suggestion, just send it on over.
