| 0:00.0 | Welcome to 95 Mac Daily for Monday, September 1st, 2025. |
| 0:07.0 | I'm your host, Chance Miller. |
| 0:09.2 | We are sponsored this week by Backblaze. |
| 0:12.5 | Leading off today, CarPlay Ultra arrived this year after taking a bit longer than expected to materialize. |
| 0:18.6 | The only catch is that next generation carplay is only offered in cars |
| 0:22.3 | from Aston Martin that start around $200,000. That appears to be changing soon with an affordable |
