Yeah, most recently on a very large Apple fansite.

This week on The CultCast: An honest look at Super Mario Run; we review better-sounding AirPods alternatives; the cool new stuff in the iOS and tvOS updates; and we reveal the hands-down best TV shows of 2016!
My rough transcript:
- this is what they're calling hearables, the hearables revolution
- iqbuds, from nuheara, they are fully wireless, one in each ear, and they sound awesome.
- they do, they sound great, the thing that makes them different, they arent dumb plugs.
- these things are actually designed so that you can hear other things around you.
- i.e. i want to hear 80% my music, 20% the bus that's about to kill me while im about to cross the sidewalk
- oh interesting, so they actually pump in some of your ambient audio? yeah
- they are definitely going for almost all of us with some hearing loss of some sort - from just getting older, listening to 25 years of rock music (laughter).
- this was a big hit crowdfunding thing on indiegogo, one of the biggest problems for people with any sort of hearing loss - even just anyone these days - is you go to a restaurant and its basically like a warzone. its a cacophony and you're trying to talk to someone.
- with these you can adjust things and its amazing you can hear people talking in a crowded restaurant.
- all kinds of people could benefit from these things besides people who just want to sit in a bar and have a conversation. think about bartenders. i used to work in a bar and 'hey what do you want?" meant trying to read lips. its impossible cause its so loud.
- i think these things are gonna be shipping to backers of their indiegogo campaign by the end of the year
- they sound really good. i dont use the current earpods cause i dont like the way they feel in my ear. and that makes me think that i wont like the way airpods feel either.
- these things sit in your ear. when i first tried these, they go in there, they are totally snug, totally comfortable, to me they are more comfortable than a lot of regular earbuds that ive worn.
- im pretty jazzed about the wireless earbuds. the extra smart stuff the iqbuds have is pretty interesting to me. im somebody who has definitely gone into a restaurant and been unable to hear what is going on.
- its a brave new world - the whole hearables thing. you're gonna be hearing about hearables.
- what did you say these things were called again?
- they're called IQBUDS - iqbuds by nuheara. ill put it in the show notes. they're fulfilling by the end of the year. and you just happened to get hooked up early. we got a little demo the other day.
- im excited about wireless earbuds too - im ready to not have wires anymore. i think the convenience factor alone is gonna make it worth it.
