Doing the most for everything good and bad inside the world of Apple,

man.

It almost feels like I'm getting on a bike that I haven't for a while because I was gone. I completely go off the grid when I'm on vacation. I did put out a couple videos while I was gone on my YouTube in case you didn't notice that just to satisfy the

Thurston also there's just a lot of stuff going around and happening but

hopefully you check that I did an Apple watch one I did an AirPods one and

then just recently I did a public beta hands-on of iOS 18 so we are

going to talk all about that and more. But first hey let's get to some orders of
