| 0:00.0 | Hello, welcome to the Apple Insider Podcast. I'm William Gallagher. |
| 0:08.0 | Sponsors this week on Nom and Zokdok. More about them later. |
| 0:12.0 | Previously on the Apple Insider Podcasts I mean an |
| 0:16.0 | entire week ago as we record this there's this big discussion that I was not part |
| 0:21.1 | of Mike Worthyly and Wes Hilliard, it wasn't as simplistic as |
| 0:25.3 | one for and one against the Apple Vision Pro, but it bordered on that and it got very |
| 0:31.1 | deep and very philosophical. If you haven't heard that one |
| 0:33.9 | rush to listen to it I mean after this one obviously but I've now I'm back to ask |
| 0:39.3 | practical serious questions and I've got Wes who I with it Wes |

| 1:11.8 | definitely made me explain my case which is always nice |
| 1:15.2 | That's great actually I love it when people have changed my mind but these days whoever changes their mind about anything |
| 1:21.2 | Let's not go there. In all of the philosophical |
| 1:24.7 | discussions about it, one thing I thought was really key, the thing that kind of |
| 1:29.1 | made me sit up when I was listening, was Mike just asking you, were you wearing the Vision Pro while you were |
| 1:34.7 | talking so one week on where's are you wearing the Vision Pro as we record |
| 1:39.6 | this of course yeah I've got my show notes and uh... safari here and my desktop |
