610: We Hear You're Good at Computers

The Mac Pro is dead, iOS 18 security updates are now available for all, and Siri's upcoming revamp comes into focus. After all that's done, both hosts share their Apple origin stories.

Jason and Myke tell the story of Apple's origin. It emerged from the unique environment of the Santa Clara valley suburbs of the '70s thanks to the particular genius of its two co-founders and some surprising help they got along the way.

Myke talks to Jason about his "Jeopardy!" experience, and Jason interviews David Pogue about his book, "Apple: The First 50 Years."

Myke has MacBook Neo FOMO and we have reviews of both Studio Display models. Also: Apple starts celebrating 50; App Store fees are lowered in China; Somehow, AirPods Max returned; Apple's AI crisistunity; and Jason in Jeopardy!?

This week, Jason reviews the MacBook Neo! Plus: Draft results, Jason is (back) in print, and new MacBook Pros and Studio Displays. But it's mostly about MacBook Neo!

Jason and Myke try to predict what Apple will be announcing this week, except for the stuff that was announced Monday. But they discuss the new iPad Air and iPhone 17e too! Also: Apple's F1 plans and some Report Card follow-up.

We discuss the results of the Six Colors Apple Report Card for 2025 in depth, with our added opinions on every category. Jason chooses to be a rascal, and Myke tries to give ten out of five.

We discuss Apple's struggles to ship an upgraded Apple Intelligence, prepare for a March 4 product announcement, and explain Apple TV going all in on "Severance." Also, Jason answers your (many!) curling questions!

Eddy Cue comes down hard on a would-be Apple service; we try to figure out what the new low-end Mac laptop might be, Tim Cook calls an important meeting to say a lot of words, and we tackle all aspects of the Super Bowl plus some curling!

We break down Apple's latest financial results (including the potential supply-chain storm brewing on the horizon) and then discuss the difficult roll-out of Apple's new Creator Studio bundle.
