MacBreak Weekly 81: Click the Throbber
Hosts: Leo Laporte, Merlin Mann, Andy Ihnatko, and Alex Lindsay Safari 3.1, security update, Apple mulls music subscription plan, this week’s picks and more.
Here’s a direct MP3 download of MBW 81.
Very fun episode this week if I do say so. Andy and I nerded out a lot, there was much jollity, we worked blue a few times, and my (repeat) pick o’ the week is SafariStand – specifically for the amazing “Copy Link as Markdown” and “Copy Link HTML Tag” functionality. Dammit: go pimp your Safari!

Next Week: Patrick Wilson from Weezer
Oh, man. How did I forget this? Next week, MacBreak Weekly’s special guest will be Pat Wilson, the drummer from Weezer and The Rentals and the multi-instrumental leader of That Special Goodness. Yeah, I know; I can’t believe it, either, but he actually asked Leo if he could be on the show. Weird. I wonder if he sent email to the wrong place and actually thinks we’re Grammar Girl or something.
Anyhow, it’s on, and I’m thrilled, because I go way back with Weezer. After the jump’s a live video of an old Weezer favorite (which, according to WikiPee, Pat co-wrote), “My Name is Jonas.”

laughed so hard I cried
Dude, this was a great episode.
I was walking through mid-town Manhattan while I listened. I’m sure everyone around me was wondering why I was just spontaneously laughing in the middle of my walk.
You all don’t actually have to talk about Mac stuff. You guys could just BS for 45 minutes and i’d still listen.
