AppleInsider podcast 500th episode special with new Apple Pencil and an old favorite

An Apple Pencil on an iPhone playing back the 500th AppleInsider podcast

It's as if Apple decided to make a barely perceptible change to its Apple Pencil line up just to give you and we time to commemorate half a thousand episodes of the AppleInsider Podcast. Host Stephen and guest William are joined by previous host Neil to answer listeners' questions, discuss favorite old Apple news, and also examine where Apple is going next.

It turns out that there is more to the new Apple Pencil, at least fractionally more, but listeners want to know about Apple's past and where all of us suspect it's going next.

So celebrate the 500th episode by listening to hosts and listeners talking about everything from Apple Card to Apple Car, and from iPad to pickleball.
