| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Apple Insider podcast. I am not your host, Steven Robles. I am your pretend |
| 0:13.9 | substitute backup host, I guess, for this episode. I'm Jason A and I am joined by regular |
| 0:19.6 | co-host Wes Hillier. Wes, how are you today? |
| 0:23.2 | Doing fine. Not really dealing with any smoke or anything down here, luckily. We have some |
| 0:28.6 | mountains to block all of that, so breathe in fresh and clear or something. |
| 0:32.6 | Now, if I remember, are you in one of the carolinas, is that right? |
| 0:36.0 | Close. I'm in North East Tennessee. I'm touching right next to it. |
| 0:39.7 | Yeah, we're in Michigan and actually we have had like a week where you're not allowed |

| 1:09.4 | I do enjoy talking to you about things. |
| 1:12.4 | I am never angry on Twitter. I'll just say that right now for anyone, just no matter |
| 1:16.6 | what it looks like, I am never angry. So if it looks like I'm angry, my apology. |
| 1:21.8 | My rule of thumb, if I'm angry on Twitter, if I'm using cuss words, that's usually like |
| 1:27.5 | it. If there's, if there's anything that I'm particularly passionate about, I'm usually |
| 1:31.3 | leak cussing, but that's just because, you know, I was in the Navy for 10 years. So it's |
