0:00.0	Welcome to the Apple Insider podcast. This is your host, Stephen Robles. And this episode
0:09.8	is brought to you by Roe Gamiba and Striek. You'll hear about those in a moment joining
0:14.6	me freshly back from the beach. Both he and I, Wes Hilliard, how's it going with?
0:19.6	Great and more tan, just slightly burned, but in a good way, it's fine.
0:24.2	Before we jump into things, I just want to remind you that we had a special episode
0:28.3	Georgia Dow, she's from Apple Talk with Renee Richie, and she has her own YouTube channel,

1:32.8	like, well, you know what? I've seen people record video underwater with their iPhone. So I'm going
1:37.1	to try it. And so you have to start the recording above water because once it goes underwater,
1:42.4	like the water messes with the capacitive touchscreen, and you can't really control it anymore.
