| 0:10.0 | There are more apple twos teaching more subjects and more schools than any other computer, so whatever Brian wants to be, an apple personal computer can help him be it. |
| 0:21.0 | As of this afternoon, that's a marine biologist. The apple, too. There's no telling how far it can take you. |
| 0:33.0 | Hello and welcome to Cole Cassidy Best 30-plus Minute Apple Conversation. You're going to hear all week long. I'm your host, Aaron Finaleigia. |

| 0:50.0 | He's also the founder of Cult of Mac, Leandro Caini is here. He hasn't left his house or showered since the lockdowns began. |
| 1:01.0 | And now he's developed an odd habit of muttering something about his precious whilst walking in all four, skipping weird over his house. He also likes petting jewelry. |
| 1:12.0 | Imagine you get a nerve, Cult of Mac. Lewis Wallace is here. |

| 1:34.0 | Be careful what you ask for. |

| 2:08.0 | And I'm like, yeah, 10 minutes whatever, right? You know, and I mean, this is not my kind of thing. |
| 2:13.0 | I'm not a gym guy. None of this stuff seems to make any sense to me, but I'm like, I got the free thing. I'll give it a shot. |
| 2:19.0 | I did it. And I'm like, wow, that was actually pretty interesting. And I felt pretty good and different afterward. |
| 2:27.0 | And the next morning, a woke up sore as can be 10 minutes, 10 minutes of just little contortions. |
| 2:33.0 | And you know, it's just it's literally, I mean, at most you have a little dumbbell that you like wave from side to side. |
