MacVoices #23154: Road to Macstock - Allison Sheridan
Our next stop on the Road to Macstock Conference & Expo is a conversation with Allison Sheridan. We start out reviewing how a previous Road to Macstock session resulted in a change to Allison’s topic before trying to figure out what she will present this year. Along the way ideas were proposed, discussed, and rejected. She finally decided on a topic…or did she?

Allison’s Mind Map of iOS
Guests:
Allison Sheridan started podcasting in May of 2005, just 7 months after podcasting was invented, and her primary show, the NosillaCast has come out every week without missing an episode since late 2005. She now produces Chit Chat Across the Pond as a separate podcast that is also released weekly. NosillaCast and Chit Chat Across the Pond audio content and associated blog posts are created and edited by Allison.
Allison has a Master’s of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering from UCLA with an emphasis in Kinematics. Her love of technology really took off when she and her husband Steve bought a 512K Mac in 1984.
During industry events such as NAB, CES, Macworld, CSUN’s Assistive Technology Conference, and Mac Mania Cruises, Allison conducts interviews and presentations while NosillaCast videographer Steve Sheridan records, edits and produces them. Associated blog posts and social media presence are also managed by Steve.
Her partner in crime on many of the shows is Bart Busschots who co-hosts Chit Chat Across the Pond every other week. He brings the propeller-beanie style episodes with his series Taming the Terminal and Programming By Stealth. Bart is a well informed, engaging instructor and he keeps detailed tutorial show notes over at bartbusschots.ie.
In addition to hosting her own shows, Allison has been a guest on MacBreak Weekly, Daily Tech News Show, Clockwise, Cordkillers, SMR Podcast, Tech’s Message, Ritual Misery and The Productive Woman Podcast.
She also creates video tutorials for ScreenCasts Online and is a freelance writer for SCO Magazine. She’s been a speaker on the Mac Geek Cruise, Macworld, BlogWorld & New Media Expo, Macstock, and at many Southern California Mac User Groups.
Allison dedicates a considerable amount her time learning and talking about assistive technologies, especially for the blind. In her spare time she exercises like a demon.
Without the support of Steve, none of this would be possible.

Michael Potter is the Executive Producer of For Mac Eyes Only, and the organizer of the annual Macstock Conference and Expo. Mike's love-affair for all things Apple began in his Junior High's Library playing Lemonade Stand on a pair of brand new Apple ][+ computers. His penchant for Apple gear continued to be nurtured by the public school system when, in High School, he was hired as a lab supervisor to help run the Apple ][e lab for his fellow students and their Print Shop needs. Then, further still, in college he often opted to help a friend with her Computer Graphics coursework instead of focusing on his own studies, but only because it helped get him closer to the Mac-lab.

At NAB in Las Vegas, we caught up with Studiobox, and there was a lot to catch up on. Co-Founder Ian Smith explains how they are expanding from just a production company to include a SAS option. They can still be hired to run the Studiobox-based production, but you can also do your own production. Soon, as the SAS model expands, you will be able to use your own equipment via their software. A fascinating example of a company born during the Pandemic and who are now evolving based on need and technology advancements.

MacVoices #22262: Charlotte Henry On AppleTV+, Streaming Sports, Streaming Services, and More
Charlotte Henry of The Addition helps give us some perspective on the year in Apple media, including their bid for the NFL Sunday Ticket. We dig into some of the challenges to watching live sports streams, and how sports is infiltrating streaming…or is it the other way around? AppleTV+ might not have a huge sports presence (yet), but it has a growing catalog and lots of star power. Charlotte discusses how that will serve them in 2023 and beyond, and what they might do better to improve their presence.
