This week’s episode is a Cool Stuff Found marathon, packed with gems you need to bookmark. You’ll get a launcher upgrade with TinyStart, a slick dual-pane file manager in VoidCommander, T-Mobile router control via HINTControl, and a borescope camera Pilot Pete can’t stop talking about. Dave hauls in a clamp-on desk power strip, the Levoit EverestAir-P purifier, and the Airversa AP2, while Adam fires up his Pit Boss combo grill. You’ll also hear about AirPod foam tips that actually stay put, a surprising detour into the evolution of lifetime warranties, and why LTT’s TrueSpec USB cables might finally end your “does this cable do everything?” guessing game. On the AI front, you’ll dig into building SKILLS.md files for your agents, a HomeAssistant MCP server, and the Plaud NotePin S for capturing ideas on the go. Round it out with the Audigo pocket recording studio, a new Steve Jobs biography covering the NeXT years, leather DavisCase iPhone cases, the Smartlet One dual watchband, and Akko Insurance for when things go sideways. Don’t Get Caught missing a single tip. Hit play, take notes, and grab your chance at a free year of Plex Pass in this month’s giveaway. 00:00:00 Mac Geek Gab 1139 for Monday, April 27th, 2026 April 27th: World Pinhole Photography Day MGG Monthly Giveaway – Enter to win a Plex Pass for a Year Congrats to March’s SoundSource winners: Ian, Robert, and Jeff The MGG Merch Store is Live!
