| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Apple Insider podcast. |
| 0:12.8 | I'm your host, Wesley Hilliard speaking, and I'm joined once again by William Gallagher. |
| 0:17.3 | I'd like to thank our sponsors this week, MacPaw and Nord Security. |
| 0:21.6 | And if you're joining and you're an Apple insider plus subscriber, then you don't have to worry about ads. |
| 0:26.8 | We're going to be talking about everyday carry after this episode and stick around for the bonus portion, |
| 0:32.7 | where we're going to talk a little bit about what we take with us and a little bit of what we want to stop taking |
| 0:38.3 | with us. Maybe what tech can replace. Maybe William's going to buy an iPhone knife accessory. |
| 0:43.9 | We'll see how this goes. Stick around for that. William, how are you doing today? |
| 0:48.2 | Well, I was fine. I'm not fully sure I can picture what that accessory was. But also, I am practicing being hip. |
| 0:56.1 | We only talk in Apiciter Plus about our EDCs. |

| 1:28.5 | very pretty to look at. Um, and, sorry, this is such an American thing. I remember every time |
| 1:35.0 | you go to the States, people try to try to sell me knives and if I tried to come back with one |
| 1:39.9 | of them and be arrested. So, yeah, that's right. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I collected marbles and all kinds of stuff, but not, not, you know, what's funny is the knife thing, it's seen as so innocent as a child. Like, you're not seeing it as a weapon. You're seeing it as a tool or as a toy. And I was in Boy Scouts briefly as well. |
| 2:01.6 | So again, it just reinforces the tool aspect of it. Um, did they throw you out to boy scouts for |
| 2:07.9 | whittling sticks or whatever it is. No, no, no, uh, just didn't go anymore. But, um, no, |
