Jason's got the new MacBook Air and iPad Pro, so it's time to dig in. But the most exciting new Apple development is an iPad accessory we won't see until May--and an iPadOS software update we all get to see this week. Plus, Myke gives his surprising reaction to spending a few weeks with a 16-inch MacBook Pro.

Snipd helps me keep track of everything I resonated with from a show. I can always find my snips, listen to them again, share them. And there are so many great product updates regularly! Like the feature to chat with the episode: I can retrieve even more knowledge from an episode 🥹 I’m in love with this app 🤍

I’ve been using Snipd for about a year and this app has been life changing. I listen to about 17 hours of podcasts a week and I want to take notes on 95% of them. Snipd makes it so easy to do. I can triple click my headphones and record a snip. The app also improves rapidly which is welcomed. It’s an easy subscription for me to pay.
