Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.Today's episode is with two executives who have helped to build one of the industry's leading alternative asset managers.In Permira Part 2, Brian Ruder joins his Co-Managing Partner and Co-CEO Dipan Patel in Permira's London office to discuss the firm's evolution and how the business has grown to over €80B in AUM.Both Brian and Dipan bring deep backgrounds in private equity investing to bear as they now lead the firm through its next phase of growth.Brian joined Permira in 2008 after working as a Partner at Francisco Partners.

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we talk through Apple's plan to focus on the smart home with a host of new devices and improvements to Siri. An upgrade to ChatGPT-5 integration is planned for Siri with iOS 26, aiming to improve reasoning capabilities. The next-generation version of ‌Siri‌ is now being tested with third-party apps including Uber, AllTrails, Threads, Temu, Amazon, YouTube, Facebook, and WhatsApp. A more advanced large language model-based ‌Siri‌, which will be more powerful than the "personalized" ‌Siri‌, could launch as early as next spring. A visually redesigned ‌Siri‌ interface for iPhones and iPads is also under consideration for release in 2026. The company is said to be recruiting engineers for its "Answers, Knowledge, and Information" team tasked with enhancing ‌Siri‌, Spotlight, Safari, and other services. This team is in the early stages of creating a "new ChatGPT-like search experience" and is even exploring the possibility of a standalone "answer engine" app. The next-generation HomePod mini is expected to launch this year and will shift further toward the smart home. It will incorporate Apple's "S11" chip, a new Apple-designed Bluetooth and Wi-Fi chip with Wi-Fi 6E support, and potentially a second-generation ultra-wideband chip for enhanced spatial awareness. The refresh may also bring improved sound quality alongside new color options. Likewise, a new Apple TV is expected to launch this year with the A17 Pro chip and the new Apple-designed Bluetooth and Wi-Fi chip. Meanwhile, Apple's first smart home hub is now expected in 2026 and will feature a 7-inch display paired with an integrated speaker, taking visual cues from Google's Nest Hub with a square display, thin black or white bezels, rounded corners, and a half-dome-shaped base. Designed for shared household use, its interface will emphasize clock faces and widgets for core Apple apps, including Calendar, Camera, Music, Reminders, and Notes. ‌Siri‌ could feature a new visual interface, personified and inspired by the Mac Finder icon. The device will include a front-facing camera to deliver personalized content and features for each user, but it will not run third-party apps or have an app store. It is rumored to heavily rely on the next-generation version of ‌Siri‌. Apple is also believed to be working on a Ring-style home security camera with facial recognition and motion detection to trigger home automations. Battery life is apparently being designed to last several months to a year. A facial recognition doorbell is also in development. The camera could debut alongside the 2026 smart home hub. Lastly, a so-called Apple "robot companion" is in the prototyping stage, targeted for a 2027 launch. It will feature a 7-inch iPad-like display mounted on a movable arm that can rotate and extend about six inches in any direction—nicknamed internally as the "Pixar lamp." Apple envisions it as an AI-driven household companion, powered by an advanced ‌Siri‌ capable of remembering information, engaging in more natural conversations, and presenting a "visual personality." The device could proactively interrupt with suggestions and be similar to OpenAI's voice mode. It will include Center Stage as well as joystick-controlled camera movement to show different parts of a room during calls. Take control of your finances with Copilot Money.

Are you hoping to visit Corsica? I've got a story for you! I (Kat) did a 9-day road trip around Corsica full of fun, relaxation, adventure, and more! Aside from the stunning beaches in Corsica, there are also ample hiking trails. It is known for the GR20, a multi-day trek known to be one of the most challenging in Europe. While I definitely didn't attempt that, I did hike a portion of it when my friend and I hiked the Aiguilles de Bavella Loop Trail. But things suddenly took a turn when AllTrails information was inaccurate and reviews that claimed it was only a 4.5-hour hike also weren't always fully correct. What was supposed to be a 6.9-mile (11.1 km) hike in 4.5 hours, it ended up being an 8.4-mile (13.5 km) hike that took around 7-7.5 hours. It's not the longest day hike I've ever done… but certainly one where we weren't prepared with ample water. Lessons were most certainly learned including to always pack more water than you think you'll need AND ALWAYS carry a LifeStraw Water Bottle. Here is my tale that is partially funny (now that we're totally fine) and partially a little scary. Plus, I've got tips for your success in hiking this trail. Bon courage while hiking the Aiguilles de Bavella Loop in Corsica! Corrections: -There were many people that did complete it on AllTrails, but for some it looks like many spots disconnected, making it appear shorter and/or possibly have less time. -Depending on your physical fitness and breaks, you could take between 5-8 hours. -Getting up the mountain is around 2-2.5 miles or so (rather than 3 miles), then it goes down for a bit. -The repelling on a chain wasn't fully vertical, it was just a steep decline.

All Trails has 14 reviews that give the Magellan Beaver Dam Trail inside Hot Springs Village a rating of 4.8. The site lists the trail as PRIVATE PROPERTY, which doesn't mean what you think.

Send us a textEver feel like you need a getaway yesterday—but without the airport drama, packing chaos, or actually, y'know… leaving town? Same. That's why we were downright shocked to discover Rob Wallace Park, a stunning hidden gem just 25 minutes from home that somehow managed to stay off our radar for over a decade. (Rude.)Armed with nothing but leftover snacks from the fridge and a fierce need to escape our home office walls, we set out on an unplanned adventure—and ended up stumbling into pure magic. Picture this: forest bathing with chirping birds, turtles popping up to say hi, and a 70-foot-deep quarry formed by accident (because of course it was). It was equal parts history, serenity, and “why didn't we do this sooner?!”This episode is your reminder that peace, beauty, and a little soul refresh don't require plane tickets or perfectly curated Pinterest itineraries. Sometimes, all it takes is stepping outside, being present, and letting nature do her thing.We're spilling the tea on what made this park a total win—think accessible trails, clean bathrooms (praise hands!), educational wildlife stations, and tools like AllTrails and Eventbrite to help you find your next local escape.So, Divas, here's your challenge: what magic might be hiding in your own backyard? It's time to be a tourist in your own town. You never know what you'll find… but we're betting it's just what your soul's been craving.Leave us a message!

On this episode, I release the full recording from our third ever live podcast show. It was filmed at the Just Trek Podcast 5 Year Anniversary celebration on Sat, April 5th at the Happier Cafe by TADAA.Coffee space in Frogtown, Los Angeles. The live podcast show featured an all star panel of previous podcast guests that included Joshua Walker (outdoor content creator + travel blogger), Nicole Snell (CEO of Girls Right Back, Founder of Outdoor Defense), Victor Martinez (Founder of The LA Trail Killers), and Jaclyn Cosgrove (Outdoor Reporter at the LA Times), and myself as the moderator. It was an entertaining and impactful group conversation that definitely left a major impression on the audience.
