MEETING TOPIC:  New Apple Products
It’s that time of year again - time for new hardware from Apple! Last Week’s “Awe Dropping” event saw the company drop a lot of new products, including new models of iPhone, new models of Apple Watch, and an impressive update to AirPods Pro. “Mac OS Ken” host Ken Ray joins us to talk about the hardware, business angles, and implications for future products.

ABOUT OUR SPEAKER:  Ken Ray
Ken Ray started in radio in the mid-1990s, with tech news work beginning in ’98 for the Bay Area’s Business Radio 1220. After a short stint with the magazine Global Technology Business in Mountain View, Ken moved to a writing and on-air position for ZDTV Radio/TechTV Radio. In 2004/2005 Ken worked with the radio show and podcast “Inside Mac” with Scott Sheppard as writer, contributing producer, and on-air personality. Then finally in 2006 - a job that stuck! That’s when “Mac OS Ken” began - a mostly daily digest of Apple news and news related to Apple news. Ken is also the host and producer of the security-focused podcast “The Checklist by SecureMac.” He also hosted the Mac Observer.
