Dick’s Gadget Warehouse:
My find at Dick’s Gadget Warehouse this week, turned out to be two gadgets.
The chatroom knew all about one of them, the iPod Touch. Many in chat owned one. There were many versions available over the years. On the show you’ll learn how I got my 4th generation iPod Touch as a gift.
In the package with my iPod Touch with the Xtreme Mac 3 in 1 Micro Dock. It could hold, charge and play music from the iPod touch through it’s tiny dual 1.5″ speakers. Amazingl,y both devices still worked! Several in chat said, I have to find my old iPod Touch and see if it works too! Of course, there’s not been an update available for iPod Touch for a lot of years! My iPod Touch 4th Generation came out in 2010 and sold for $229.00 or about $341.00 in today’s money. The Xtreme Mac 3 in 1 Micro Dock from back then had a MSRP of $59.99.

Letter of the week:
Hi everyone, I really enjoy your show.
For some reason youtube directed me to a now 5 year old documentary on Eddy Goldfard, the inventor of over 800 toys, including the Yakity Yak Teeth, Kerplunk and the Bubble Gun. Really interesting life of inventing so many toys. He’s now 103 years old!
For those who haven’t seen the documentary on him you can find it on the website below
