You're listening to the Apple Insider Podcast.

Welcome to this, the Apple Insider Podcast.

I'm here with my best brother in the whole world,

William Gallagher. And I'm there with you. Hello. It's so nice to be here with you.

That's very nice.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't be wary.

I'm busy here because just previously enough you said such nice things.

Oh, and then.

No, no, no, no, I'm only saying good things about you and I, but I am going to tell you

depressing things about the state of the world today. Okay, that seems fair. Right. And the only

problem is that there's so much to choose from.

Okay, please remember, I'm in the UK, Brexit, we've left Europe, be gentle.

What have you got that's worse than that?

But some people think that's happy. We can't ignore that.

What I was going to say, well, what I'm going to tell you about is potential iPhone production problems.

Oh no, hang on. What? What? Well, let me go ahead and explain it like this. There is a virus, the novel coronavirus. which has been difficult to contain in China,

it has moved across mainland China, and initially there were attempts to try and contain it by quarantine.

There were attempts to extend the Chinese New Year,

Lunar New Year, and have people stay at home instead of coming back to factories to work.

But the problem is that doing that means that you end up having to suspend operations longer,

which means you suspend production.

It actually means one thing that you haven't mentioned that I'm quite surprised you've left out.
