I've met this guy
Travis "Tears for" Fears, the theater department head at the San Francisco Apple Store, helps the Apple business team in Cupertino by demonstrating a few "switcher" basics as part of a free Apple Seminar aimed to help potential small business users.
I met Travis once when he was off duty on the night of Jobs's iPhone keynote, where he and a San Francisco store (lady) Genius came to watch and listen to Leo Laporte, Alex Lindsay, Merlin Mann and the gang record the podcast MacBreak Weekly (episode 23 & 24) at the 21st Amendment bar in San Franny. The podcast is a weekly technology podcast discussing Apple news and rumors. Being that this was the night of iPhone, this was a special taping live for an audience at the bar. Mr. Fears and I chatted for a second in the intimate space of the second level of the bar and having the pleasure to see famed New York Times technology writer David Pogue show up for the taping.
Also, the MacCast guy showed up to the same event to talk on the podcast with Mr. Laporte. While he was up at the front of the group talking for the podcast, I was at the back of the crowd nanpawing the lady he came with, who had apparently just met him that day. The MacCast is a podcast that apparently shows how to do shit on the Mac, because some douche bought the guy a drink because he "helped him out of a jam."
