What is the opening discussion about WWDC week and the hosts’ current situation?
Now it's WBDC Week. This is the most important podcast episode that we do in the year. This is the one that we get but usually significantly more downloads than average. Um it's the one where we have the most live listeners. It's the one really where everyone's most excited to about our about our show. Um And it always happens in the same, you know, one to two week span. It's it's always the first or second week of June. Um and it's been that way for, I don't know, thirty years. Um Casey, when did you schedule a vacation?
So as it turns out, I am not at home right now. I am at the beach. Uh so um first of all, if I sound funny, I am using my normal microphone, my normal preamp, my normal mute switch. I am using different XLR cables, if that matters, but I am in a very, very different physical environment. So
are they oxygen free cables?
Yeah, right. They're gold plated, Marco, just for you. Um no, so if I sound like crap, that is my fault, not Marco's. And we wanted to address that right now. I mean, hopefully I sound normal or normal ish, but if it's a little echoey or something like that, or if you hear a child or a dog in the background, I will try to ride them the meeting switch aggressively. Seagull, something like that. Uh but yeah, so I am I'm in a different spot. Um the you know, the there's
that's not what Marco was asking you to address, by the way.
I'm getting there. I'm getting there. So the the the thing of it was was that we had thought that we were going to do another overseas trip this summer. And we thought this in the summer of 25, we thought, okay, summer of 26, we're gonna go back overseas. And we had planned our vacation schedule with the assumption that we would be spending, you know, a week or two overseas, probably in July, which is typically when we would come to the beach. And I have a particular beach house that I really like. John can uh Can appreciate this. And I got this like thought in my mind that if I don't at least book something. For the beginning of the summer, it's just gonna book up out from under us, and then we won't even have any opportunity to go to my favorite beach house at my favorite beach.
And so I thought to myself, well, self. Apple always does the first week in June. And we're gonna talk more about that in two seconds, but Apple always does the first week in June. Of course, WWDC will be the first week in June. Even if I were to get an invite, I'll be home by that you know following weekend. No problem. There is no issue with me scheduling this the second week of June. And honestly, what I'll end up doing is I'm just gonna get I'm just gonna cancel this and you know, rebook for later in the summer once we have a little bit clearer plans. Well, I'll give you one guess what didn't happen. We didn't rebook for later in the summer. And also, this is Marco's birthday week. How many birthdays have I celebrated?
How many of your birthdays have I celebrated with you in WW WWD C? You would think I would have thought of this, but no, I didn't. Right.
Right. 'Cause my birthday's in the second week of June and I think I've spent at least four of them in W V D C Right.
So
And
W C last year was in the second week of June.
Yeah, that's just failures failures up and down and sideways. Uh I lost a bet with myself to begin the video. I thought there was going to be some super campy, super cringe, like two dads moment where um where Turnus and Cook were going to do, you know, the passing of the torch baton, whatever. And that didn't happen at all. Turnus, who? Yeah, exactly.
I I think the like the general like stagecraft and mood of this video I think had some some interesting changes that I would like to um kind of get on, you know, uh cover right up front here. Um number one The the general, like, broad content of the video had very little like here's what the new OSs are doing, and here's a feature, and here's a screenshot demo, or here's something demoing them. Like, it was surprisingly little of that. Um it was also surprisingly low on the kitsch, with the exception of the Federiki intro about uh about the Mac OS name.
