0:00.0 | Chance Miller is good to see you at WWDC a couple weeks ago. We ran into each other a couple |
0:05.1 | times. State of the Union. And then we both got shuttled off on our separate golf carts |
0:10.4 | right afterwards. No opportunity just to sit there and chat. No, but we can talk about that later. |
0:16.4 | We've got some breaking news before we sort of rehash the highlights of WWDC 25. We've got some breaking news before we sort of rehash the highlights of WWDC 25. |
0:24.3 | We've got a couple of breaking news items I want to talk about. |
0:28.5 | Let's lead with the trademark dispute. |
0:32.4 | And I'm laughing. |
0:33.1 | Oh, yeah. |

1:42.5 | Yeah. |
