Apple's new CEO John Ternus is reportedly trying to remake the company, aiming to make it more nimble and leaner and to improve and accelerate its product cadence, according to a source within Apple. That effort could bring layoffs in middle management, including some of the product managers who are a big part of the Apple system for getting products out. The same source said Ternus is a product engineer through and through, though the hosts noted Apple is a massive company with many moving parts and questioned whether it can cut that layer of product managers and still be the Apple seen today. The discussion also touched on the foldable phone, with a counterpoint estimate of 6 million units sold contingent on the production ramp up, and on the iPhone 20, which the hosts said will follow the 18 rather than a 19, alongside camera-equipped AirPods and smart glasses. The iPhone was described as the greatest selling product of all time, at 2.5 trillion dollars over the past 20 years.
