Essential Apple Podcast 303: Zombies, Zombies Well it is 2025! So guess what? The Essential Apple is back again, late as ever... anyway Nick and Simon talk about some stuff in the news and wander around as usual.

Eventually we return - after illness, a bad bout of depression followed by Summer ennui and a lack of real stories Simon and Nick rise again like an unwanted Phoenix to return to your Podcast feed... A few thoughts on a solid if not overly inspired Glowtime and a lot of rambling “catch up” conversation... Welcome back to the world of the EAP! MISSI…

This one is a bit late (nothing new there). Also I am sorry that the audio isn’t as good as normal - not sure what happened but there was a lot of crackling and some sort of stuttering/drop out. I have done my best to clean it up as best I can.Anyway, with all that said Nick and I got together to talk about what we thought of the WWDC announcements…

WWDC is tomorrow, so Simon does a quick solo show with his pre show thoughts.

So Apple had an event... and unsurprisingly it was about iPads, and how! Also the rumoured M4 arrived (in a bit of a change of habit for Apple and how they usually do these things). Nick and Simon take a look at what was what, and have their tuppence worth of say (that’s 2c to those of you who don’t understand “old money” LSD, That’s Pounds, Shilli…

Late again, really must do better - but this is what we thought might come out of the Let Loose event which was due in a couple of days when we recorded this, and as ever plenty of other stuff from down the rabbit warren...

Essential Apple Podcast 294: New iPads incoming? Yes this one is obscenely late and Simon can only plead “life events” sorry!
