orlandoasisI’ll keep listening, butThe post-Stephen era of this podcast makes for an odd dynamic, swinging between the tech uninformed uncle and the pedantic nephew. The show now zigzags between moments of “can you help me reset my itunes password?” and “well, actually”… Update after a few weeks: The chemistry between the hosts seems increasingly strained, leading to tense and disjointed conversations. It’s unfortunate, especially during an exciting product launch.
-
pmarietEnjoying your showI enjoy the passion and knowledge for Apple you both share. You two make a good podcast team.
-
dukemeiserNot the sameStephen was great, William is splendid. The two of them had such a great dynamic. Wes was always my least favorite host and now that he’s full time I had to unsubscribe. He has this weird obsession with Elon Musk and keeps throwing his far left political views into the show. I couldn’t tell you what Stephen’s political views were and that’s how it should be. I might come back when Wes is gone. 2 stars for William.
-
Redpixel09The chemistry just isn’t thereBack before Stephen left, I really enjoyed this podcast. Stephen and William had great chemistry, and Stephen and Wes wasn’t bad either. But William and Wes just has never had the same chemistry. Whenever Stephen couldn’t record an episode for one reason or another, the William+Wes episodes were always not as good, but it was fine in small, very infrequent doses. But now with Stephen gone, it’s slowly getting more and more uninteresting. If Wes would let William talk more, and if they’d lighten up a bit, I think it’d be better, but without much connection between William, Wes, and the listener, it’s getting harder to listen to. P.S. Whoever does the episode art, please, for the love of all that is held sacred, find a unique image to use as episode art. Just that would make this podcast better.
-
Some other Dad took "Dad"William is great. Wes cut the political commentary.Can’t continue to subscribe with Wes as host. Wes stick to writing where you can be free to comment on politics but I listen to learn about Apple and not listen to your bloody dribble.
-
clintf777Apple Fanboys only need applyThis was one of the better podcasts on all things Apple with Robles but since he’s departed, it’s gone downhill quite a bit. I always enjoyed the shows w/Robles and Gallagher and much less the ones w/Hilliard and Robles. Now that it always Hilliard and Gallagher its more irritating than entertaining to listen to. The biggest problem being Hilliard’s ability to project the 800LB gorilla that Apple is as the 90lb weakling on the beach that’s always getting sand kicked in his face. Hilliard is, unfortunately, that host that just can’t seem to grasp the reality of the situation that Apple really is the monopolistic bully that always and forever does what’s best for Apple at the expense of everyone else and will only do the right thing in many cases when forced to by legislation. Hilliard just can’t see that and so almost always come across as a defender and apologist for Apple. That gets tiresome and is why I’ll be moving on from Apple Insider
-
GIS AdmFFR2I like the show, but I’m not loving the audio quality. I’m not sure if it’s the mic’s or the mixing, but sometimes the audio quality forces me to turn it off.
-
DJD 11Mostly great.Latest episode’s editing was HORRIBLE. Lots of dead space, hosts were edited to be talking over each other and couldn’t understand what either was saying. Seems like the show is going down hill content wise and quality of the editing since Stephen Robles left for his own things. You guys are supposed to be a show about tech so expectations of a high quality show are still there.
-
tardis7229No longer worth listening toI originally didn’t think I listened to the show just because of Stephen but now that he is gone it is difficult to make it through an episode. Wes is ok at best in small doses every other week but now that he is on every episode he never stops talking. Wes and William do not seem to have have kind of connection and at times it is very painful to listen to. If the show finds a new host I might give it another try but until then I will be looking for a new Apple podcast.
-
BBentonKeep your politics out of the showI get it. You don’t like Elon Musk. I hear it in all you off side comments. I want to listen to the show for Apple News not your political views.
-
markbakerpragueNo chemistry between the hostsI like both of the hosts, but there doesn’t seem to be much chemistry between them now without Stephen. Wes is knowledgeable but talks too much and hijacks every topic. He doesn’t seem to enjoy the fun stuff about Apple, like indulging in some of the more interesting rumors or speculation. Honestly, that’s why a lot of us are here — to have a fun talk about Apple. When I listen, I feel like I’m getting a lecture. Please lighten it up.
-
Suzanne4cBest Apple PodcastLove this podcast. The hosts are very knowledgeable and informative and I enjoy their camaraderie. Wes is excellent at explaining technology to the average user. Keep up the great work. I’ll be listening.
-
RR1152Great PodcastVery informative
-
googullEp 517Sour Puss Mike only thinks he can see new paradigms. Clearly just a dinosaur keyboard guy that is married to his old school habits. I was shocked that he can’t envision the new opportunities the VP platform enables. Not worth listening to.
-
DarthCoreyI am doneWell…I am unfollowing. This show used to be one of my favorites. Now, it is the vehicle for Wes Hilliard to condescend his audience, his cohost, and all technophiles. I honestly can’t believe how many times we had to listen to the fact that he was writing the review for the Apple Vision Pro. If I was him, I would be proud to be selected by Apple Insider, but as a listener, I could care less…and it just came across as a not-so-humble brag…over and over. There are a lot of great Apple Podcasts, so I am moving on. Even though I am a long time listener, it is just a mess of a show, and no longer a healthy discussion on Apple products and news…it is just the Wes Hilliard show…and that leaves me no motivation to keep listening.
-
romeroeliWesley is stupid.Everyone is taught in elementary school that only women menstruate, yet he says “people who menstruate”. Y’all have a room temperature IQ host.
-
JohnthunderGreat PodcastWes & William are 2 of my favorite people to listen to on podcasts. I was sad when Stephen left, but was excited when I found out they were taking over. I was afraid the show would go away entirely, which would be a shame. I’m not sure why so many are complaining about Wes, he does a great job, he just likes to talk…. Which is the point of a podcast… Also, I would say if you don’t like him “defending” Apple so much maybe don’t listen to a podcast called “Apple” Insider… just saying. I think Wes & William have a good dynamic and if the show runs longer because of it, that’s fine with me!
-
999HauntsNo Stephen, no show.Since Stephen left, Wes has hijacked the conversations and the meandering is maddening. His defense of everything that Apple does is now unchecked. I like William quite a bit, but he seems too polite to cut Wes off when needed. Apple Insider needs a host to steer the ship or listenership is gonna fall off in a big way.
-
gfjgdggxeevv V czz344Good, but…This podcast is very interesting but it would be nice if Wes would let the second person talk more but overall great pod!!
-
SpankynewmanWe miss you already StephenI used to listen every Friday like clockwork when Stephen was host. Now it is Tuesday and I was like “oh yeah, I might as well put that on.” I am sorry I did. Wes has some good technical knowledge and was always opinionated but held somewhat in check by Stephen, but no more. Now it is unbridled opinions and dismissiveness towards anyone who doesn’t use Apple devices the same way he does, and doesn’t give the other guests enough time to speak. There was even a diatribe in today’s episode toward the folks who have “Obama phones”. I think I have had enough.
-
Seth (WiiDSmoker)Wes the blindI keep trying to come back and Wes is an absolute shill. Defends everything Apple. Incredibly boring personality as well.
-
JCB_56One of the best Apple PodcastsI’ve been listening to AppleInsiders for years and look forward to listening each week! Sorry to hear that Stephen has moved on but Wes and William did a great job this week!
-
can you be my momThanksSteven, you are not allowed to leave this podcast. You are one of the main reasons that this is my favorites podcast. All joking aside I hope whatever you chose to do I hope you are happy and I just want to thank you for being such a great host.
-
boo-busGoing to miss you StephenYou just convinced me to relent and buy the MacBook Pro you bought and cancelled so many times. I know the feeling. Sorry to hear your going, you’ll be missed. Blessings on you future endeavors!
-
DylanHarkerMissing StevenLove the show sad Steven is leaving! He keeps William grounded with his calming voice haha

a rodgersThe only podcast I listen toApple insider is the only podcast I listen to having tried many I’ve only ever come back to Apple Insider. Being a tech loving Brit who now lives in North Carolina I love the British / American twist, my terrible British humo(u)r is mirrored by William and Stephen broadcast from my now home state North Carolina last episode! Keep up the great work guys and keep up the GB Vs USA banter!
-
JackthetoolboyBest Apple Podcast by far.Gives a great overview of the latest on Apple, and gives a perspective of other people and their tech.
-
idkAtomInformative yet funOne of the very few podcasts with actual chapters with dedicated album art for each chapter. Thanks for the attention to detail! The podcast is informative, but more importantly, fun. I love the chemistry between William and Stephan.
-
Minjun17This has been THE show to listen toAdjusted to 5 star. The 4 star was a mistake 🙏🏻 I listen to the show from Honolulu, Hawaii! Love this show and have been listening for years. It has been a constant in my rotation of shows I gather all my apple tech info from. Really happy that Stephen got his Lasso biscuits.
-
AmishpriestFavorite Apple Focused PodcastThis review is a 5/5 when William is on, but a 1/5 without him. That’s it…that’s the review. Ok, joking ;). The show is always informative and entertaining, and the hosts all have a great rapport (though I really enjoy William’s sense of humor). Makes this my go-to Apple podcast.
-
brewertxnListening since day 1What can I say, I don’t believe I’ve ever missed an episode and as a result, you’ve made me the defacto “Apple” guy in my family, including my inlaws and extended family… and yes, even at work. Thanks for keeping me so informed and able to add value to the people in my life. If I ever run into one of you in an airport, I’m buying you a drink. And William really should watch Ted Lasso, Season One at the very least.
-
MikeAckFinally leaving a review…I’ve been a listener for years now and I’m finally leaving my review. The latest episode mentioned Lakeland, FL (where I lived when I was very young while my dad went to college there) and Virginia Beach, VA (where I’ve spent most of my life and grew up).
-
padarthaA bloated bore fest. Fast-forward is your friendI hate to be mean and granted, there is the occasional nugget of worthwhile information but a majority of this podcast is endless conjecture-based droning on about things that are neither informative, funny or interesting. I mean I am a total Mac nerd but this podcast bores me to tears. Robles, spends an inordinate amount of time with feeble attempts at comedy (dude, you are NOT funny) and reading commercials which is annoying to the nth degree (yes I know there is a subscription based ad free version but I’m not paying to hear this garbage) William Gallagher is the only halfway redeeming co-host. The chap is charming and contributes somewhat interesting opinions. He is a welcome respite from dunce cap Wesley Hilliard who makes Steven Robles sound interesting. Mental note to self: fast forward whenever he opens his mouth. Hint: shorten this podcast to 20 minutes max. File under: “Ugh” Do your own research online - it’s infinitely faster. Nothing to glean from this train wreck of a pod.
-
Djc1976Best Apple podcast out thereYou guys are amazing, the podcast is really informative and doesn’t fall down the trap of trashing all the products that so many Apple related tech podcasts or YouTube shows seem to fall into while they try to get the clicks or follows. Keep up the great work
-
ChickenG1ttrAwesome Podcast!You guys should collab with MKBHD In ChickenG1ttr, the 1 is an “I”
-
shimit1000TerryLove the podcast
-
AceNet-AASir William Gallagher…nay… LORD William Gallagher, OBE (as deserving) is the leading torch through the alpha-botic forest to Newton’s source!
-
NateBrown19Best Apple Show PodcastYou all are doing a great job! I listen weekly without fail and hope the podcast continues. Also, tell William he must watch Ted Lasso!!
-
Mobile KrisNo RegurtsGreat podcast for Apple nerds.
-
Lifter 1763A fun way to learn about interesting technology.I am a friend of mister Stephens son and I love this podcast. I keeps me updated with new and advanced technology and also gives me a couple laughs once and a while. There comedy is so fun and and every guest he has alway shares a fun point of view. Thanks for having this podcast. So factual.
-
boilerineOne of my favorite podcastsThis podcast is fav of mine. Very informative. I look forward to listening every week.
-
dhenri99Thorough insights in everything Apple.👍🏼👍🏼Listening from Panama 🇵🇦 Not knowing who will be hosting with Stephen every week make this podcast very fun. Their different perspectives on the news is refreshing. A must for Apple fans
-
SkablawLike chatting with good friendsStephen, William and Wes are the tech-savvy buddies you wish you had in your real life. Listening to the news and discussion they bring to the table about your favorite hardware and software is a welcome retreat from a much less civil society. The fact that they so capably impart pertinent information about Apple products is almost beside the point because this is a group of gentlemen I’d gladly listen to reading entries out of the phone book.
-
torinomanGoldilocks Of Apple Tech news.Great balanced program. Tech, News , with just enough banter. Not too long, not too short. Just right! Thank-you.
-
KE9FOXGood discussionsGood, informative discussions. Hosts could do better about not taking over each other. Sometimes it sounds like they’re not on the same page and are attempting to convince each other of their viewpoints and interrupt each other. Would prefer if they’d just let the other talk.
-
PghPhilTippingFull on agree with you with respect to tipping. It feels like a shakedown.
-
