Some people have never used a cassette tape to listen to music, my kids being among them. This week Dave takes a little side route into one of his thoughts on listening to cassettes. We have spent a lot of time talking about things that Apple has done wrong this past year in regards to AI and Siri, so this week we change things up and talk about the things we love about Apple and what they have done right.

I’m heading off to Miami this weekend to see the Formula 1 Grand Prix and take a tour of the pit lane. Dave tells us about his Formula 1 experience and his trip to Texas. We also talk about the rumored deal between Apple and Google to have Apple use Gemini in Apple Intelligence—this is probably the best news ever for Apple’s AI efforts. If you haven’t tried Gemini yet, you should—it’s incredible.

The iPhone is as popular as ever among teens, according to a new study. That’s important because as they grow up, they are the ones that will be buying new phones. With new tariffs expected to be imposed, Apple is flying planeloads of iPhones into the U.S. to ward off any immediate price increases.
