Mac Power Users episode 719, the 2023 MPU Gift Guide.

Hello everyone, this is David Sparks I am joined by my co-host Mr Stephen Hackett how are you

today Stephen I'm good David I'm in the holiday spirit you know yeah me too buddy too, I've got my Yule playlist going. In fact, I'm going to put a link for that in the show notes. I have a great

playlist of jazz-related Christmas music.

If you like that, you can check it out. It's my most subscribed to playlist.

People check it out every year.

I'm always updating it.

So I haven't done this year's update yet,

but I will go through. But there's a lot of really old music in there.

Man, some of that old elephant's jill, Christmas music. Oh boy, that's good stuff.

Yeah. But there's always some new stuff too, and I'll put that in. I think I've even got a couple of my songs in there where I recorded like I always I never like drummer boy for something that song always seemed boring to me so I made a cool version with the garage band and my piano and my little electronic

socks years ago I think. Yeah that's in there. But yeah so I'm ready for the

holidays and every year we do the MPU gift guide it's so fun as we work on the

outline I worry that's like wow is this just like stuff I want to buy for

myself but you know we're all nerds Yeah, sometimes that is part of it.

There's one on the list you have. I have definite questions about it, but the

I do feel like it's fun to do this and I have a motivation going into this.

I try to mix up the picks for stuff that us nerds listen to MPU might like.

But I also kind of like to add some tech related stuff

that you may want to buy for your less techie

inclined family members that they may not have yet, but maybe a good gift for them.

And you guys have to tell us how we did, we like doing this and it's fun every year.
