There might be some listeners out there who think perhaps this podcast has too much baseball content and should focus more on Apple.

Now I have bad news for those people.

Sorry, non-sports fans.

It's going to be sports.

But I do think there are numerous talking about the strategy and why Apple is even getting into what you know, we're

alluding to here for anybody who's been under a rock is Friday night baseball, which,

yeah, guess is a new thing, right? It's not like Apple is taking over Friday night baseball from

Amazon from some other property, right?

Right. Or like a traditional cable network like TBS has had Friday night baseball for the last 10 years or something like that.

It's sort of a new national franchise and the basic idea is there are two games every Friday like a seven.

What time of the day are they though?

I think that there are always, you know, there's an East Coast seven, you know, seven o'clock in the evening game and then a West Coast seven o'clock in the evening game, which for me and you on the East Coast would be like 10 or

10 30 or something like that.

Well, did you notice this that they were so it's Apple Apple is California based.

I've always said they have a real California bias with things like touch ID where, you know, on the East Coast we were gloves in the winter and some of you can't unlock your phone.

Did you notice that they were promoting the game times in Pacific time?

Yes, I absolutely did. That is one of the.

Which is so for I don't and that's strange to me because plenty of stuff is out of L.A.

You know TV wise movie wise, obviously, but I think TV wise too, but everything in my lifetime has always been, you know, seven o'clock Eastern six o'clock central

and and you never see a Pacific time zone mentioned. So I think Apple is really they're throwing their way to round there getting the Pacific time zone in there.

Yeah, I definitely think that whoever did it at Apple, whoever made that decision is a lifelong Californian.

West Coast area.
