Hello and welcome to the Apple Insider podcast.

0:10.0

This is your host, Wesley Hilliard speaking.

0:11.9

I'm joined once again by William Gallagher, and today's sponsor is Clean My Mac by MacPaw.

0:17.7

If you're a paid subscriber, you're not going to hear anything about sponsors.

0:25.4

You're going to hear about William talking about what, what do you have for us today?

0:32.1

Oh, it's like the olden days when I used to be back in archives and my hands were dirty with things.

0:38.7

We got the iPhone launch coming up so soon now that I went back and looked at all of the iPhone launches and And, you know, I had a nice laugh at how many times they say, this is the best iPhone we've ever made,

Here's the new iPhone.

1:27.2

Seriously, the thing that bothers me is, you know when he says, this is the best,

1:31.7

that he already knows that next year's going to be so much better. So it's not like he's lying

1:35.7

to us and things. But there's a point about that actually in Appetida Plus, a point where

1:40.4

they did that kind of thing a bit too publicly giving away what was next.

1:45.5

It brings to mind, we're not quite to that season yet, but I'll say it anyway. It brings to
