Wrapping up 2025 (AVALON)

In the 29th episode of the AVALON podcast, Neil recapped some of the most interesting Apple stories from 2025.

In 2025, 168 Above Avalon Daily updates consisting of approximately 450 stories were published. To close out 2025, an idea that came to Neil was to recap the 20 most interesting stories published in 2025. Approximately 40 stories made the first cut with four additional cuts needed to bring the total down to 20 stories. With those 20 stories in hand, they were then ranked in terms of their overall impact / intrigue level / importance.

In AVALON episode 29, Neil discusses a handful of the most intriguing stories from his Top 20 list.
