It's time for episode 128 of the Clockwise Podcast from Relay FM, recorded Wednesday, March 16th, 2016, and brought to you by IT Pro TV.

Clockwise, four people, where I'm your host, Dan Solo.

Oh, is either that or Dando Calrician.

I really didn't know which was the better option there.

Jason Snell is away on assignment, so I'm running the show myself today, which means I have

three fantastic guests seated around the table from me. We're going to go left and proceed

clockwise in their introductions from Mashable. Senior Editor Christina Warren is here. Hi, Christina.

Hello. Welcome back. Glad to be here.

Directly across from me is the co-host of many popular podcasts, including the X-Natal tech podcast and Analog here on Relay FM, Mr. Casey Liz.

Hi, Casey.

Hey, how are you?

I'm doing very well.

And to my right is iOS and Mac developer of such noted apps as P-Calc and Drag Thing, Mr. James Thompson.

Hi, James.

Hi, Dan. I'm always happy to appear when the episode number is a power of two.

I noticed that as well. I didn't think about that until just now.

Yeah, well, we'll see you on at what's the next one, 256.

So we've got four topics today, and since I am the only host, I am going to kick things off.

I noticed the other day, Apple is expanding, still working hard on Apple News.

I think they've opened it up to pretty much anybody who wants to, you know, use their fancy content techniques.

And they obviously want more publishers to buy in. I think there was something recently about

them allowing sponsored content as well. They're pushing it pretty hard. Do you guys use it?
