    M5 MacBook Pros, Mac Neo, Studio Display XDR — Reacting to Apple’s Wild Week! Mar 06, 2026
    Show notes

    Send us a text!

    This week: Apple had a huge week. New M5 Pro and M5 Max MacBook Pros just landed with massive performance gains and surprising efficiency improvements.

    Apple also introduced the Mac Neo — a $500 Mac that Steve Jobs once said Apple could never build — plus a new Studio Display XDR that might quietly be the most exciting announcement of the bunch. In this episode, I break down everything Apple announced, what’s actually impressive, where the compromises are hiding, and which of these new products might really matter going forward.

    IT'S ALL ABOUT TO DROP.... (CultCast #738) Feb 27, 2026
    Show notes

    Send us a text!

    This week: Apple’s about to hit the big red LAUNCH button: March 4 brings an “Apple Experience” happening in New York, London, and Shanghai, and we'll likely see days of product drops and press releases.

    Plus: we’re diving into the coming “cheap MacBook” with questionable compromises, then fast-forwarding to the truly unhinged future: a touchscreen OLED MacBook Pro with a Dynamic Island, and an iPhone 18 Pro that allegedly shrinks the Island even more.

    Plus plus: Jony Ive + OpenAI - we finally know what they're working on....

    Living in Japan Without Speaking Japanese — How Apple Makes It Possible (CCOT) Feb 10, 2026
    Show notes

    Send us a text!

    I’m joined by listener-turned-guest Major Dr. Zach Hicks, an Air Force physician living in Japan, to talk how Apple’s translation tech is making daily life in Tokyo not just possible, but actually kind of magical. We dive into using AirPods for real-time translation, navigating Japan without speaking the language, and why this stuff feels like a genuine sci-fi breakthrough. Along the way, we wander into raising kids overseas, Japanese culture shock, aviation anxiety, flying in military cargo planes, and why understanding how airplanes work might make you more nervous, not less. It’s a classic CultCast off-topic episode: part tech, part travel, part existential aviation dread — and a reminder that some of the best conversations come straight from the listener community.

    With reseller stock drying up, new M5 Pro and M5 Max MacBook Pros appear to be RIGHT around the corner! We’ve also got more intel on Apple’s first OLED MacBook Pro (with a full redesign!). Plus: major new features landing in iOS 26.3 and 26.4, what Apple’s second-largest acquisition reveals about Siri’s future, autonomous AI agents are coming to Xcode, and a disappointing new rumor about the next Studio Display…
