Podcasts about Apple Card

You may have seen him getting praised by America's Got Talent judges on cable TV, or comparing the lyrics of "W.A.P." to "Baby It's Cold Outside" on TikTok, or donning a Providence or URI shirt on stage at a New York City comedy club.  Either way, you definitely know Tom Cotter.  In an exclusive interview with BBB's first ever comedian guest, Tom Cotter has us laughing like we've never done before on the show.  Tom takes us back to his days growing up in Providence, discovering his love for comedy at Denison University, and making it a full-time career.  As the first comedian ever to reach the finals of NBC's America's Got Talent, Tom's career rapidly took off - he collaborated with Jay Leno, Howard Stern, and other well-known comedians, as well as participating in an AGT Judge Roast of the late Joan Rivers.  We discuss what it takes to be a comedian in today's world and turning the "brand" of a comedian into a business. BEERS: Will is fresh-off two beer festivals and has plenty of new beers to share with us, but one stood out as unique from Brew at the Zoo.  Japas Cervejaria, a Brazilian brewery founded by women of Japanese descent, created "Matsurika," a pilsner backed with tea and jasmine petals.  One of the more floral beers we've rated on the show, Matsurika scored high, especially considering its unique background.  Jake is almost wrapped up with the review of his Western tour, finishing us off with another baseball beer from Petco Park in San Diego.  Ballast Point, one of the more well-known breweries from Southern California, gave us "Swingin' Friar Ale," a crushable toast to the Padres with 100% Simcoe hops - a true home run for casual beers to drink at the ballpark. BUSINESS: Apple has finally launched their iPhone 15 and a host of new products, but it comes with a big caveat - the new Apple products will switch over to USB-C charging, a departure from the Lightning technology that they invented years ago.  Will this help or hurt Apple, and will consumers rush to get new products given this new development?  We spend far too much time debating if we're brainwashed by Apple, and sucked in by their interest-free loans and Apple Card. BALLS:  Week 1 of the NFL came and went, and without a doubt, the biggest storyline has been Aaron Rodgers tearing his Achilles tendon on the fourth play of his first game as a New York Jet.  What will the Jets do without him, and will we ever see him on the football field again?  What veteran quarterbacks could we seen on the field in place of Rodgers?  We go over some of the performances that we found impressive from Week 1, and give some bold predictions for next week.

In the final part of this MacVoices Live! session, the panel of Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Ben Roethig, Jeff Gamet and Web Bixby discuss Goldman Sachs' reported $1 billion loss on Apple Card. We speculate on other factors like changing interest rates and their foray into the consumer loan business as possible explanations. Just for fun, we consider the idea of Apple potentially acquiring Goldman Sachs to expand into consumer finance. Regulatory challenges and the complexity of multinational operations are covered, as well as the role of existing banks in Apple's international expansion plans for the Apple Card.
