| 0:05.0 | Welcome to the Apple Insider Podcast. |
| 0:10.0 | I'm Victor and this is the abbreviated after Christmas edition of the podcast. |
| 0:14.8 | I'm so glad you're here. |
| 0:16.3 | Let me tell you a couple of things that have happened in the past week. |
| 0:18.6 | Apple's Pro DisplayXDR is a game changer for professional production and a major animation studio who worked |
