Episode 420: Ring, Olympics, Siri slips again Feb 13, 2026

Show notes

Ring had an amazing ad during the Super Bowl that will use its camera network to help find lost dogs. Sounds great, but Dave has a warning about the new service. The Olympics started and Dave and I have been watching all kinds of different sports. It looks like some of the best features of Siri have once again slipped and will not be introduced when Apple said they would.

Episode 418: Shoveling snow with Siri, More on Apple's Future AI Jan 30, 2026

Show notes

We all know Siri can be frustrating, but Dave has a story about shoveling snow and trying to use Siri at the same time that had me laughing. I probably should feel bad about it, but it was just too good. More news from Mark Gurman this week on Apple's plans to run their AI efforts using Google's Gemini.

Apple this week expanded their services business by offering a new Creator Bundle for a monthly subscription. Dave also got the key for his car on his phone and watch, but the experience may not be what you expect it was.

Dave and I talk about CES and dig into some specific product categories. This week Dave talks about some laptop trends that are not Apple.

Episode 414: Facebook, Apple in 2026, and Edge Light Jan 02, 2026

Show notes

Have you heard about the Facebook settlement where you can get money back from a lawsuit? Neither had we until Dave got an email. If you want to look ahead and see all of the products that Apple has planned for 2026, there is a good look at everything to kick off the year. The newest macOS has a cool new feature called Edge Light that puts a light on your screen to frame a video call giving you better light—now you don't have to buy a separate light for your camera.
