In Episode 2 of The Tech Desk Weekly, I’m breaking down what’s actually going on in the Apple world right now — the now sold-out iPhone Pocket, Tesla possibly adding Apple CarPlay, and the iPhone Air fallout. I also explain why this episode had to change, because realistically Apple is done releasing products for the year.
Shorter episodes for now, but as I get more comfortable with the podcast format, they’ll get a bit longer.
Watch the full video episode on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts.
Topics:
• iPhone Pocket explained
• Tesla adding Apple CarPlay
• Why the iPhone Air didn’t take off
• Apple ending releases for the year
• Weekly podcast format changes

In this episode of The Tech Desk Weekly, I break down Apple’s latest updates: iOS 26.1 and iOS 18.7.2. These are two very different updates: one brings a few refinements and new features for newer iPhones, and the other focuses on security for devices that aren’t ready for iOS 26 yet.
I’ll talk about:
What’s new in iOS 26.1
Why iOS 18.7.2 matters for older iPhones
Battery drain myths
Why headlines exaggerate update issues
My experience running iOS 26.1 on 3 iPhones
