In the beginning, Apple's had one of their biggest days
when Adam and Eve ate one and realized they were nude.
The next major Apple event didn't come until nineteen eighty five,
when a clever key we crossed a Royal gala with
a brayburn. This week, that iconic combo crack one billion
in global sales, making it one of the most successful

(01:08):
branded food exports we've ever produced. You are exceptionally crisp
and sweet and now envy apples. You are a New
Zealander of the weed.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
These beloved New Zealanders wear cool white coats. They study
at UNI for years. They know chemistry, They know meds.
They can sell you the sexy blue pills, but for
years they've had to have their hands held by GPS
when helping the good people of New Zealand where they're
disgusting knits, scabies and conjunct dividers. But this week it

Traditions are hard to start, but so easily snuffed out

earthquakes and tragedies and titles, has been admund.

Bleep! with Ana Navarro

Bleep! with Ana Navarro

Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story. The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper. Because information, debate, and conversation don’t just ease fear, they give us power to shape the future.
