EARLY ACCESS: RIP Adobe Flash Player

Hey guys! Here's the final episode for 2020! This one was a challenge! Seriously, this is the most complex video editing timeline I've ever worked in for this show, but it'll be worth it! I had fun making this, and I know you'll love it!

Flash Player was a staple in Internet history and pop culture! Now that its dying, we must celebrate its history!

Behind the Scenes: RIP Adobe Flash Player

Hey all!

Well, 2020 is about to close, and I have one more special episode in the works.

Adobe Flash Player official goes end-of-life on December 31, so on that day (at 11:00 AM CST) I am releasing a Krazy Ken's Tech Talk episode which dives into the life (and death) of this Internet phenomenon.

I'll also show a bit of the original "FutureSplash Animator" and Flash 2.0. I've decided to use the PowerBook G3 Wallstreet because it provides the "Classic" compati...

Yes, the Caviar "Apple 1" iPhone Case is Fake (Here's Why)…

Hey everyone! So, Caviar has been known to make some crazy iPhone cases in the past; recently, MKBHD talked about one which has a "piece of the moon" inside of it.

Well, another case that made the rounds was this "Apple 1" case which allegedly has a piece of a rare Apple 1 computer board in it—for $9,990. Well, it's fake! And here's why…

EARLY ACCESS: MacBook Pro Sleep Wake Failure

Hey guys! I'm releasing 2 episodes this week. The Cardieo "scam" episode is coming soon, but enjoy this in the meantime!

Today we have a good ol' fashioned Krazy Ken problem. My MacBook Pro just doesn't want to recovery from sleep mode anymore. And… I might've wasted $200 on a hardware fix… oops.

Behind the Scenes: Cardieo Apple Watch Knock-Off / Scam

Hey guys, how you all doing?

Thursday's new episode is about a highly-requested knock-off product named "Cardieo Smartwatch." Wow… this is a bad one x_x

Hey guys!

Thanks so much for another successful month of support! Seriously… your pledges on Patreon mean the world to me. I don't discuss this publicly much, but this is an expensive-ass hobby, haha. (Okay, it's technically a "business" but that doesn't sound as fun).

The two, big Patreon-related things for next year are a new wallpaper pack (only for patrons and YouTu...

EARLY ACCESS: iPhone 12 Pro Max vs. Blackmagic

Hey all! My friend Brad, and I, (or is it "me"? Grammar is weird.)… anyway, we went to the second biggest lake in the country to film this episode—Lake Michigan. It was really windy and cold (and wet) but totally worth it! Hopefully you'll agree once you see the shots. 

The goal for today's episode is to answer this question: how "pro" is the iPhone 12 Pro Max's camera? View Post

Krazy Ken roadtrips to Lake Michigan to film a new comparison episode—pitting the iPhone 12 Pro Max vs. a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K. Ultimately, the goal is to prove how "pro" the iPhone 12 Pro Max truly is. And during the shoot… things get… wet.

👀Sneak Peek: New Website

It has been several years since the website had a true redesign. Soon, I will publish the updated site, but I want to set the expectations. It's not gonna be some mind-blowing thing. I want to keep it super simple. In fact, I only redesigned the pages which get the most traffic—including our beloved wallpaper gallery! 

Here's the key focus points for the new site:

  • It's mobile-ready. The site finally adjusts the layout for mobile devices.

Hey everyone! I want to thank you again for another amazing month of support. As you know, it is expensive and time-consuming to run a YouTube channel, so the extra income is incredibly helpful. I hate talking about money, and I wish the world didn't run on it, but unfortunately it does. And as much as I love making videos for people, business comes first (boy, I hate saying that… but it's true). So thank you, thank you, thank you!
