It was a sad day for the music world as one of the greats passed away this week. Dolly Parton was celebrated around the world when news of her passing reached the public, and every bit of it was deserved. Apple's first event featuring its new CEO, John Ternus, has been announced for September 9, 2026, at 10 a.m. It is expected that John will introduce a bunch of new products, including the Foldable iPhone. It'll be an event to watch for sure. Apple this week also announced a new Mac mini with M6, M5 Pro, a new MacStudio with M5 Max, and M5 Ultra. That's a lot of power.

Sometimes we like to share things going on in our lives, this week is my turn. I just got back from a trip to Winnepeg, spending some time with friends we met last year. Besides being the nicest people I've ever met (that's coming from a Canadian), they also showed us a really good time in Canadian cottage country. Dave and I also talk about some difficulties setting alarms in iOS 27 and a misstep by Apple has revealed the new camera-equipped AirPods Pro.

Dave mentioned on the podcast a year ago how great it would be if you could instruct Siri to take a picture. Guess what you can do with iOS 27 Beta? You got it! It's getting close to the introduction of Apple's first foldable iPhone. This will be John Ternus' first introduction and keynote as Apple's CEO. This is definitely going to be interesting to watch.

Dave found a new site, that is about 25 years old, that has shown him a lot about learning guitar. We talk about the different priorities we have when it comes to learning the instrument. A new beta of iOS 27 came out, and it fixed some of the issues we brought up last week on the show. Apple introduced a new leasing program that is better than I thought it would be.
