Hello and welcome to the Apple Insider podcast.

This is your host, Wesley Hilliard, and I am joined once again by William Gallagher.

I'd like to thank our sponsors this week, Oracle and Notion, and we're going to dive into everything Apple announced this week.

It's heavy lifting three-day work week.

I'm sure they're very, very exhausted over there.

But first I'd like to mention if you are a paid subscriber, you get this show ad free. And Apple Insider Plus, we're going to be discussing how we decide to upgrade. And basically, when we change out our gear, what gear we decide to buy, that kind of thing.

Also, well, Apple had their earnings on Thursday evening, and, well, they predictably did amazing.

This is the iPhone quarter kind of.

I think they have like a whole two weeks of sales, but that is usually enough to take what is usually kind of a dreary summer and turn it into something a little more

exciting. I'm sure we're all very excited for Apple to make even more money so they can, you know,

continue to not sell Applevision Pro globally.

Or bring Apple Card globally, or maybe hopefully not put ads on Apple TV Plus.

That would be good.

Yeah, I'd like that.

Maybe this is enough to convince them.

Yeah, I think we should break down, though, the figures, though, because

that earnings result, the net revenue for the quarter, that is actually more than I earn

in a year. And I'm, you know, really quite impressed. That's the depth of my financial analysis

for it. Shock and all. Yeah, and possibly. It's too much money to be envious of,

isn't it? You know, I'm not even sure if that was Tim Cook on the call. That might have been

an AI voice. Do you think Apple Intelligence is doing all the earnings call now? Okay, you're slightly

worrying me. I've got this rule.
