0:25.4	Welcome to the Apple Insider podcast. This is your host, Stephen Robles, and joining me is my friend
0:32.9	across the pond, William Gallagher. How you doing, William? Hello. I'm very well. Thank you. I hope
0:38.4	you are too. Doing well. In case you didn't know, William. Apple sold some phones and made some money
0:44.3	last quarter. Well, frankly, yes, I do know. And I am a little bit shocked. They didn't personally call
0:50.4	me out in their earnings call to thank me for all the money I've contributed to this and that.
0:56.7	We all contributed in 2020 in various ways and various devices. So Apple had a record-breaking

1:55.2	grew 17% and one last figure. Apple shipped over 90 million iPhones in this past quarter. And it
2:04.1	ousted Samsung as a world's top smartphone vendor with that amount of phone shipping. So pretty
2:11.6	wild quarter. And you were covering it live. And was it kind of a flurry of stuff?
