No One Gets Fired for Hiring Jimmy Fallon

In the 13th episode of the AVALON podcast, Neil discussed the following topics/subjects:

What's on the Agenda (the bulk of the discussion modeled after Apple’s Monday morning meetings)

• Google’s awful (Made by Google) product event in NYC.

• Why product events and unveilings still matter.

• Google has no taste.

• Why Google should end its first-party hardware endeavors.

Lighting Round (two topics two minutes each)

• Apple TV+ monthly churn.

• Apple and MLB (U.S. baseball) media rights.

Give Me a Break (something ridiculous that jumped out at me)

• Wired claiming Meta won the smart glasses race.

Tell Me More (something intriguing that has my attention)

• Apple using its retail stores to demo shared devices.
