September 15, 2012
The September 15, 2012 broadcast preserves Dr. Dave's practical judgment and personality as clearly as its technology news. He explains why he deliberately stays behind the bleeding edge, why promises from sales representatives should be documented and why even an expert still calls technical support to learn what only the manufacturer may know. Family memories and brotherly humor run through the show, from his father's 1967 disbelief in paid television to the discovery that Dr. Dave has been broadcasting in an inside-out shirt because he rushed to begin the work he enjoys. The episode also captures the launch of the iPhone 5 as period history while keeping the routine product detail in the complete show rather than promoting it as a separate clip.
