This Week On The TC Gadgets Podcast: Apple’s iWatch Patent, The MBA Sticker Ad, And The Defender

As the summer presses onward, so do we.

A massive Apple patent surfaced this week, giving us our most detailed look yet at the company’s focus for the much-rumored iWatch. And speaking of Apple, the company recently released an interesting commercial showing off MacBook Air notebooks covered in stickers. Plus, we discovered a fun Indiegogo campaign this week for the Defender, a portable, all-in-one defense system.

We discuss all this and more on this week’s episode of the TC Gadgets Podcast featuring Matt BurnsJordan CrookNatasha Lomas, and Darrell Etherington.

Have a good Friday, everybody!
