In this episode, Ray Cochrane devotes the whole show to Apple’s fall event, the first under new CEO John Ternus. He starts with the iPhone Duo, Apple’s first foldable iPhone. From there, he covers the Apple Watch Series 12, the new Health Age score, the Apple Watch Ultra 4, and AirPods 5 with noise canceling at $129. – Want to start a podcast? Its easy to get started!

Lake Michigan stunned him because it looked like the ocean. He had hoped to spot Wisconsin across the water. However, overcast skies and fog hid the far shore. He also apologizes for the hum in the previous episode, his first video session in the studio. Without headphones on, he took the noise for ordinary background sound. The culprit turned out to be a line-level cable plugged in at one end and loose at the other. After tracing it, he rewired the whole desk so every cable is neat and out of harm’s way. Meanwhile, he is still learning the studio’s TriCaster switcher and working on keeping his eyes on the camera. He invites listeners to send suggestions. Additionally, his grandmother had trouble finding the video version on the site. As a result, a site update is coming that uses the alternate enclosure feature, so listeners can switch between video and audio. Time with his grandmother has been a highlight of the trip. Cochrane reflects on how little time he spent with this side of the family after his father moved to Michigan. Next, he flies home to Oregon after some time in Detroit. As the move comes together, he also wants a better way to get recordings off the TriCaster than a USB drive.

The event streamed Wednesday as a pre-recorded film. It was also the first event under CEO John Ternus. He took over from Tim Cook, who became executive chairman, on September 1st. It took Apple seven years to answer Samsung’s first Galaxy Fold. Even so, the price barely moved, since the Duo starts at $1,999. Cochrane admits he hoped for something closer to $1,400. Still, based on the marketing alone, the Duo is the upgrade he is most excited about. The Duo is a book-style foldable that opens along a vertical hinge. Closed, it has a 5.4-inch outer screen and is roughly the size of a passport. Open, it reveals a 7.6-inch display, the largest Apple has put on an iPhone. Both screens share the same proportions, so apps simply scale up to fill the bigger screen. Opened flat, the Duo is just 5.2 millimeters thick, which makes it the thinnest iPhone Apple has built. Closed, it measures 11.3 millimeters and weighs 254 grams. By comparison, Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold8 is lighter and thinner at 201 grams and 4.5 millimeters open. The Crease, the Hinge and the Return of Touch ID The crease was Cochrane’s biggest worry, since it is the most common complaint about folding phones. Apple layers the inner screen with a flexible plastic cover, thin glass, and a titanium plate underneath. Custom adhesives let those layers slide as the phone bends. On top, a microscopically etched matte finish scatters reflections to hide the crease. However, Apple only claims the crease is harder to see, not gone. Early hands-on reports split down the middle. Chance Miller at 9to5Mac found it “hard to notice a crease at most angles.” In contrast, Andrew Romero at 9to5Google, working from early videos, said it looks “just as visible” as on Samsung’s Fold8. The hinge uses more than a hundred parts and a row of magnets to hold the phone shut. Cochrane says it snaps open cleanly, which a $2,000 phone should. Notably, the Duo carries an IP68 rating, surviving six meters of water for up to 30 minutes. That matters on a foldable, because dust in the hinge is a classic way these phones die. The Duo also has no Face ID. Instead, a Touch ID fingerprint reader sits in the side button and works open or closed. Cochrane offers his own theory for the switch. With AI now able to generate convincing faces and video, a fingerprint may simply be the safer biometric. Inside the Duo: Chip, Cameras, Software and Battery The Duo runs the A20 Pro, the same chip as the iPhone 18 Pro, built on a two-nanometer process. A vapor chamber carries heat away so the phone can hold full speed longer. Cochrane welcomes that, since his own phone runs hot while charging or running demanding apps. Two 48-megapixel cameras sit on the back, a main and an ultra-wide. The outer screen unlocks the new tricks. For example, you can shoot selfies with the rear cameras, and Duo Preview lets your subjects see the shot. Smart Take snaps the photo when everyone is posing, and Kid Cue plays Peanuts animations to get kids to look at the camera. On the software side, the Duo ships with iOS 27.1. The Dynamic Island now runs vertically along the side, and Split View puts two apps side by side for the first time on an iPhone. Netflix, Zoom and Slack already support it. The Duo carries two batteries, one in each half, and Apple rates it for up to 24 hours of typical use. Charging to 50 percent takes about 20 minutes with a 60-watt adapter. However, that adapter is sold separately, which Cochrane calls out as a raw deal for first-time buyers. MagSafe and Qi2 wireless charging run at up to 25 watts. Storage starts at 256GB for $1,999 and climbs to $3,199 for 2TB. Preorders open October 16th, and the Duo reaches stores October 23rd. Ternus called it “the most transformational change to iPhone since the original.” Cochrane still wants one, though the price gives him pause, and he asks listeners whether they plan to buy. Apple Watch Series 12 Checks Your Heart Every Five Seconds Next, Cochrane turns to the Apple Watch Series 12 and its new Health Sensing System. The watch reads your pulse by shining green light into your skin and measuring what bounces back. After wrestling with the technical term, photoplethysmography, he notes that everyone sensibly calls it the optical sensor. Apple made those lights bigger and more efficient. As a result, the watch now checks your heart rate every five seconds, all day. It also measures heart rate variability, the tiny wobble between beats, as often as every five minutes. A bigger wobble generally means your body is rested and recovered. Cochrane loved Apple’s swimming ad, where a swimmer finishes his swim and checks his heart rate. To him, it feels far more futuristic than the rugged adventure watches of twenty years ago. Swim tracking itself isn’t new. What changed is the constant background check and a live heart rate readout on the watch face. All of that feeds a new daily readiness score from zero to ten. It weighs your recent activity, training load, vitals and sleep, then updates through the day. Engadget points out that competitors already offer readiness scores and faster sampling. In Cochrane’s view, Apple is catching up to the market, but doing it in a big way. Apple’s Heart Rate Accuracy Study Apple claims no wearable reads heart rate more accurately, and this time it published the study. Testers wore a Series 12 on one wrist and a rival on the other, with a Polar H10 chest strap as the reference. The rivals came from Garmin, Google, Huawei, Samsung, WHOOP and Oura. Across 1,254 people at five sites, Apple led in 139 of 159 comparisons. Eighteen were too close to call. The only two losses went to Google’s Pixel Watch 4 at rest, by less than half a beat per minute. Cochrane appreciated that a fifth of participants had the darkest skin tones, where optical sensors have historically struggled. The Series 12 comes in 42- and 46-millimeter sizes, including a new ceramic version. Battery life holds at 24 hours, and fifteen minutes of charging now buys up to twelve hours. Pricing starts at $399 for aluminum, $699 for titanium and $899 for ceramic. It reaches stores September 18th. Health Age and Apple’s Rebuilt Health App Cochrane admits he first misread this feature, and he is glad his initial read turned out wrong. Apple is rebuilding the Health app around Apple Intelligence, its umbrella name for its AI features. The app adds an Insights tab, a For You section, and a Longevity tab covering seven areas of health. Sumbul Desai, a physician who runs health and fitness at Apple, framed the goal. She said pairing the watch’s sensors with Apple Intelligence lets Apple “translate complex biometric data into clear guidance for users.” In other words, nobody wants to scroll through a spreadsheet of their own heartbeats. Inside the Longevity tab sits Health Age. It weighs your VO2 max, resting heart rate, sleep, and heart rate variability against your real age. You can also add lab results like A1c and LDL cholesterol. Apple’s sample screen shows a body running 3.9 years younger than its birthday. Cochrane finds the feature interesting, and he hopes the data stays private, much like health records at a hospital. However, Apple didn’t share the math behind Health Age. He would like Apple to publish its formula, because people will take a number like that seriously. The new app also adds at-home movement evaluations using the iPhone camera and the watch. Users can book a $119 blood panel covering more than 50 biomarkers at roughly 2,000 Quest Diagnostics locations. Cycle Tracking gains perimenopause and menopause support. The redesigned app arrives later this year, while watchOS 27 lands September 14th. Finally, Cochrane raises a concern about all this monitoring. He hopes Apple built strong safeguards around the health data, because a leak of data like this would bring serious lawsuits. Apple Watch Ultra 4 Can Outlast a 100-Mile Race The Apple Watch Ultra 4 shares nearly everything with the Series 12, from the sensors to the S11 chip. This year, what sets it apart is stamina. Normal use now reaches 50 hours, up from 42, and Low Power Mode stretches to 84. Meanwhile, fifteen minutes on the charger buys up to 18 hours, where last year’s model managed 12. A new Max Extended Workout mode tracks up to 45 hours of running or hiking, with GPS logging every second. Apple says that is typically enough to finish a 100-mile race. The watch also uses dual-frequency GPS, which listens to two satellite signals to reject readings bounced off tall buildings. DC Rainmaker came away impressed with both watches. As Ray Maker put it, “I’d argue they’re the biggest leaps in Apple Watch hardware and features since they launched the Ultra series back a few years ago.” The Ultra 4 holds at $799 and ships September 18th. Audio Intelligence and the Always-Listening Question Both new watches also gain a set of listening features Apple calls Audio Intelligence. Sound Recognition alerts deaf or hard-of-hearing users to sirens, alarms, doorbells, or a crying baby. Shazam names nearby songs without being asked. Then come the two raising eyebrows: Live Rewind and Siri Recap. Live Rewind shows the last fifteen seconds of your conversation as text with a double press of the Digital Crown. Siri Recap hands you a title and key points after a conversation, leaving out financial details and ID numbers. Both arrive in beta later this year, in English first, and need an iPhone 16 or newer. Cochrane saw the pushback coming. To replay fifteen seconds, the watch has to be listening before you ask. Apple answers with privacy promises, including that everything is opt-in and raw audio is deleted after processing on the chip. Still, he argues that opting in means choosing to give up privacy, and he has a hard time believing the processing stays on the device. AirPods 5 Bring Noise Canceling to $129 AirPods 5 comes in two versions, and the headline is price. Until now, noise cancellation in the regular AirPods cost $179. Both AirPods 5 models include it, starting at $129. Noise canceling is harder in the regular AirPods, because they lack the rubber tips that seal your ear. Apple’s AirPods marketing director Eric Treski admitted as much in 2024, calling it “really, really hard to create this great ANC quality in a non-ear-tip product.” Nevertheless, Apple says AirPods 5 removes up to 50 percent more outside noise than AirPods 4 with noise canceling. Interestingly, the chip and microphones are unchanged. The gain comes from reworked vents and ports in the shell, plus smarter software. For perspective, Apple says AirPods Pro 3 still cancel up to three times more noise. Gizmodo found AirPods 5 “did a good job silencing the background noise, but not entirely.” The $129 model charges over USB-C. For $149, you add a wireless charging case, a Find My speaker, a volume swipe on the stem, and an extra hour of listening. Both models also carry an IP57 rating and support Live Translation. They reach stores September 18th. How Apple Filmed the Event Cochrane closes by praising the production itself. Apple built different scenes and backgrounds throughout the film, and Six Colors noted a Hollywood backlot segment with a fake rainstorm, Roman soldiers, and astronauts. The closing card read “Shot on iPhone. Edited on Mac.” He still hopes to get an iPhone Duo, though he isn’t sure about paying two grand. For now, he may stick with his current phone. Cochrane wraps up by pointing listeners to the GNC Insider program, the newsletter, and podcastapps.com, adding that he likes Pocket Casts. Listeners can reach Ray or Chris at geeknews@gmail.com. He flies back to Oregon next, with another audio episode planned for Monday and a video site update coming this week.

Send us Fan MailWhat does it take to build an iconic technology company before the technology ecosystem required to support it even exists? In this compelling episode of Money Majlis, Suvo Sarkar speaks with Dhiraj Mukherjee, co-founder of Shazam, investor, speaker and lifelong student of technological disruption.Long before smartphones, app stores and streaming, Shazam began with a deceptively simple human question: “What is this song?” Dhiraj recounts how a group of ambitious entrepreneurs built a way to identify music from a few seconds of audio over a basic mobile-phone line, then spent nearly two decades navigating the far harder challenge of finding a sustainable business model. It is a story of conviction, reinvention and resilience through the dot-com crash, the global financial crisis and the upheaval of the music industry.Dhiraj reflects on the tension at the heart of every enduring venture: holding a fixed vision while maintaining a flexible mindset. He shares why Shazam did not change its fundamental purpose, but repeatedly reinvented the way it created value: from paid SMS messages to music partnerships, advertising and streaming. His lesson for founders and leaders is refreshingly direct: stay relevant, keep learning and live to fight another day.The conversation then turns to AI, where Dhiraj brings the perspective of an early OpenAI investor and a practitioner who believes technology must be experienced, not merely discussed. He explains why failed pilots should not automatically be seen as failure, why enterprises must move beyond simply layering AI onto outdated workflows, and why the greatest opportunities in banking may lie in the “big, boring problems” of compliance, risk, credit and operational efficiency.For boards and senior leaders, this episode offers a powerful argument for curiosity, experimentation and adaptability. Dhiraj explores the importance of sandboxes and guardrails in regulated industries, the benefits of reverse mentorship across generations, and the need to build organisations around skills and learning velocity rather than static roles. He also makes the case that AI should elevate human capability, not absolve institutions of their responsibility to help people reskill and contribute at a higher level.From the founding story of Shazam to the future of autonomous financial agents, quantum computing and AI-enabled work, this is a wide-ranging conversation about navigating uncertainty with optimism, humility and disciplined action. Dhiraj's governing principle is clear: in an age when knowledge is abundant and change is relentless, adaptability is the capability that matters most.Produced by : PoddsterGiving partner : GoodworldVisit moneymajlis.com to join our giving movement and get your USD 50 complimentary GiveCard.

Joss Whedon stepped in for Zack Snyder and brought a lighter tone. Shayne noticed the villain's whole "collect three boxes for cosmic power" plan looked a little familiar. It rhymes with Bfinity Stones. Once Superman showed back up, Steppenwolf was done. And nobody was a fan of that voice filter.Aquaman splits the guys right down the middle. Jay called it cheap, cheesy, and overhyped. Shayne liked it more and says Jason Momoa is the whole reason Aquaman works at all now. Also, Jango Fett himself, Temura Morrison, had a role. James Wan directed. It's better than Jay remembers.Shazam gets real love. Zachary Levi (yes, that's Chuck from the TV show) plays a superhero who looks like he's actually having fun, and the guys agree the lighter tone made it stand out.Birds of Prey lands strong. Margot Robbie owns Harley Quinn, Ewan McGregor makes a great villain, and the guys are genuinely impressed by DC's track record with strong female leads before Marvel got there.They close out by looking ahead: Wonder Woman 1984, the Suicide Squad reboot, The Batman, Black Adam, the Flash's Flashpoint storyline, and the hope that Henry Cavill stays Superman for a good long time.Toast of the round: "Here's to being single, drinking doubles, and seeing triple." Jay also finished an entire bottle on air. No notes.~~~~~~~Disclosure: I don't really have a house elf. Artie is AI. Get it? Artie-ficial Intelligence!

Selective Ignorance — Bonus Episode Description In this bonus episode of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B, super producer A-King, and Jason “Jah” Lee bring the conversation back to music, R&B nostalgia, new artist discovery, Verzuz debates, Drake, and the evolving music industry. After a quick cold open [ 00:00 ] and some sports sponsor banter [ 00:39 ], A-King breaks down the origins and purpose of The Weekly Drop, his platform for spotlighting independent and emerging artists listeners should have on their radar [ 01:28 ]. The crew compares how they discover new music today—from streaming algorithms and radio playlists to Shazam and word of mouth [ 03:24 ]—while showing love to rising and established voices including Mahalia and Isaiah Falls and praising the music setting the tone for the summer [ 04:48 ]. From there, they celebrate the 25th anniversary of Usher’s 8701 and reflect on the album’s lasting influence on R&B [ 05:12 ], before having some fun with the internet conspiracy theory that Usher has been replaced by a clone [ 06:48 ]. The nostalgia quickly turns into a hilarious examination of classic R&B lyrics that sounded romantic growing up but hit very differently as adults. The crew starts with Usher’s “U Remind Me,” questioning the logic behind pursuing someone who reminds you of the very person who hurt you [ 08:21 ], before putting Donell Jones’ relationship lyrics under the microscope and debating whether some beloved R&B records were actually warning signs disguised as love songs [ 15:04 ]. They continue unpacking the wild relationship logic found throughout the era, including Jaheim’s “Just in Case” [ 20:51 ], before asking whether certain lifestyles and connections to the streets should automatically become dating dealbreakers [ 23:12 ]. That leads directly into some Verzuz talk as the hosts make predictions about potential R&B matchups [ 26:36 ] and debate how Joe versus Donell Jones might actually play out record for record [ 27:11 ]. They compare each artist’s catalog, hits, songwriting, and longevity [ 27:46 ], while questioning how much features and collaborations could ultimately decide a Verzuz battle [ 29:22 ]. A quick debate over the Power theme song follows [ 30:31 ], before the conversation shifts to J. Cole’s tour and the current excitement surrounding his live shows [31:08]. The crew then enters the Drake discourse, beginning with a simple question: if you received an invitation, would you actually attend a Drake party? [ 31:52 ] That opens a larger discussion about his viral party run, celebrity access, dating expectations, and the blurry line between generous gift-giving and “tricking” [ 33:16 ]. The hosts trace Drake’s public persona all the way back to his “Wheelchair Jimmy” Degrassi era, reflecting on how dramatically his image, influence, and lifestyle have evolved [ 36:13 ]. Closing out the bonus episode, Mandii, A-King, and Jah briefly get into New York City Caribbean parade culture, including the personalities, traditions, and social dynamics that come with one of the city’s biggest cultural celebrations [ 43:44 ], before beginning their wrap-up and discussing plans to make future Friday episodes even more informed and guest-driven [ 47:23 ]. The conversation takes one final industry turn with a look at Atlanta’s film economy and the importance of production incentives [ 48:26 ], followed by thoughts on Netflix’s creative shorts category and new opportunities for shorter-form storytelling [ 49:49 ]. The crew signs off [ 51:00 ] after a bonus episode that blends classic R&B nostalgia, emerging music, toxic love songs, Verzuz predictions, Drake debates, and the changing landscape of music and entertainment.

This week, Bryan, Matt, Joel, and Ryan are watching the magic completely fizzle out as they endure the absolute misfire that is 2023's Shazam! Fury of the Gods. How does a sequel manage to make every conceivable wrong creative decision and reduce itself to a horrible, hollow shell of the charming original? The guys are breaking down exactly where the franchise lost its spark. We're tearing into the bafflingly generic villains, the complete absence of the first film's grounded foster-family heart, and the infuriating reality that the climactic third-act battle basically doubles as a desperate, feature-length advertisement for Skittles. Throw out your candy and hit play—we're taking the wizard's staff back!

Green Lantern #37 shows Kyle Rayner and Odyssey both learning you should never feed the trolls when Odyssey's online feud spills into the real world. Harley Quinn #64 reveals the mastermind behind the Harley Quinn Revenge Squad and proves Harley is her own worst enemy. Superman #40 uses Superboy-Prime to show that even after redemption begins, the consequences of your past never disappear. Justice League Unlimited #21 has the League finally turn the tables on Brainiac Queen with a surprise plan from Red Tornado and the Atom, while Batman and Lex learn they have something in common regarding the consequences of the Omega Tournament. Superman: Father of Tomorrow #3 shows Lex Luthor's decision to abandon science for sorcery perfectly highlighting the series' central debate over power and responsibility. Absolute Wonder Woman #22 has Barbara Minerva willingly surrender herself to Urzkartaga, but her true objective remains a mystery. The Peril of the Brutal Dark: An Ezra Kane Mystery #6 sends Ezra Kane into the skies in a biplane for a cinematic showdown with Nazi automatons that delivers the pulp-adventure ending the series promised. Swamp Thing (1989) #4 gives Swamp Thing and Abigail a hopeful ending by leaving multiversal versions of themselves behind. Dark Knights of Steel: Heir to the Sea #1 highlights Arthur Curry taking Superman's place as the extraordinary child raised by Jonathan and Martha Kent. Absolute Superman #21 delivers a perfect balance of action and character as Superman shows just how much he cares about the people who can slip through the cracks as much as he cares about world-ending threats like King Shazam. Zatanna #4 has Zatanna learn firsthand from previous Prime Magi that the role isn't what she thought it was. The Flash #35 has Wally learn that with enough data he can stop anything bad from occurring in Central City—but should he be watching everyone?

Detective Comics #1111 has Batman's investigation uncover the terrifying truth behind the force manipulating generations of the Prion family, and his vow to save them proves the lasting impact Prion had during his brief time with Batman.

Biography Flash: Shakira Conquers the World Cup Charts and AI Chaos in One Wild Week

Shakira Biography Flash a weekly Biography. Shakira has spent the past few days doing exactly what has defined her career for three decades now: turning global turbulence, digital chaos, and stadium‑level spectacle into raw material for her own legend. The biggest immediate headline, reported by outlets like NPR and Baomoi, is her starring role in the first‑ever FIFA World Cup final halftime show, an 11‑minute global broadcast where she will share the stage with Justin Bieber, Madonna, BTS, Burna Boy, Coldplay, the Muppets, and more, cementing her status once again as the undisputed queen of World Cup performances and adding another historic milestone to her biography. At almost the same time, Shakira is deep into her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran world tour; concert trackers such as Hypebot and Shazam list her most recent arena date in Newark and her next U.S. stop at Brooklyn's Barclays Center, confirming that she is actively touring, not just making cameo appearances. That touring story has a geopolitical twist. According to the Egyptian outlet Ahram Online, Shakira has postponed her high‑profile Pyramids of Giza concert and other Middle East dates to late November due to regional war and travel disruption, a reminder that her career has grown large enough to be directly affected by global events and that her tour logistics are now part of the international news cycle. In Europe, entertainment sites including Imprintent and K Rock in Australia have highlighted her record‑breaking streaming run: she recently became the only artist ever to hit No. 1 on Spotify in both English and Spanish, while her Burna Boy collaboration Dai Dai sits at No. 1 worldwide and its video dominates YouTube with hundreds of millions of views. Those numbers, tied to Forbes' long‑running estimates of her roughly 300 million dollar net worth, underline the long‑term business arc of Shakira as not just a star but a durable multinational brand. Visually, fans have spotted her in New York's Times Square with her sons Milan and Sasha and the Ugandan dance crew Ghetto Kids, as reported by El Colombiano, a public walkabout that doubles as organic promotion for both her World Cup performance and her ongoing embrace of pan‑global collaborators. On the more personal and defensive side of her biography, Spanish music site Los40 reports that Shakira has issued a formal statement warning fans about AI‑generated fake images placing her in situations that never happened, and says her team is actively working to debunk and remove them. That is confirmed fact; any rumors about specific fake scenarios or secret projects tied to those images remain unverified and should be treated as speculation until addressed by her or reputable outlets. Taken together, the past few days show Shakira juggling tour dates, historic sports‑entertainment appearances, streaming records, family‑centered public outings, and a very modern battle to protect her likeness in the age of artificial intelligence.

Join the crew as we discuss Zachary Levi's pitch-perfect man-child energy, the hilarious, scene-stealing dynamic with Jack Dylan Grazer's Freddy Freeman, and those genuinely terrifying Seven Deadly Sins monsters. Did this lighter, comedic detour prove that the cinematic universe still had some magic left in it? Say the word and hit play—we're testing out our new superpowers!

Roberto and Jon are back for another unscripted Tailoring Talk Magazine catch-up, recorded from two very different locations: Roberto at home and Jon sitting in a hot car in a country park, trying to escape the sounds of barbecues, dogs, children and general British summer chaos.The conversation starts with Roberto's new Arsenal Women Trailblazers podcast, why he's committed to building a consistent space for Arsenal Women fans, and how that sits alongside the usual Tailoring Talk mix of style, tech, cars, culture and general nonsense.From there, Roberto and Jon get into the rising cost of consumer technology, including MacBooks, iPads, Apple TV, games consoles, Steam hardware, PlayStation, Xbox and whether Apple's next wave of products could push more people into keeping older devices for longer. Roberto explains why he's trying to use what he already owns, including an old Canon DSLR and his Omega Seamaster, rather than constantly upgrading everything.They also talk Apple Watch battery life, the action button, Shazam, gaming, Nintendo Switch 2, the problems facing Xbox, and whether AI is quietly making every gadget more expensive.The second half moves through cycling, e-bikes, road bikes, mental health, summer fitness, Jon's camping dilemma, the brilliance of Sugar on Apple TV, Colin Farrell's wardrobe, Supergirl costume design, Tank Girl nostalgia, 007 First Light, and why combustion engine performance cars may suddenly be holding their value better than expected.There's also a look at Roberto's BMW M2, the reality of car ownership, salary sacrifice EVs, whether people actually need cars anymore, and why the answer depends entirely on your lifestyle.A wide-ranging, funny and very Tailoring Talk conversation covering Apple, AI, gadgets, gaming, watches, cameras, cycling, TV, films, cars, pets, camping and the strange business of trying to live a slightly more analogue life in an increasingly expensive digital world.

Radar Empresarial: Supergirl se estrella en taquilla, ¿Cuáles han sido los mayores fracasos en el cine?

A lo largo de la historia del cine se han estrenado producciones que han marcado récords de taquilla y generado enormes beneficios para los grandes estudios. Títulos como *Star Wars*, *Titanic*, *Avatar* o las películas del universo Marvel son algunos de los ejemplos más conocidos. Sin embargo, la industria también ha sufrido importantes tropiezos económicos con proyectos que no lograron conquistar al público. Uno de los casos más recientes es *SuperGirl*, la nueva apuesta de DC y Warner, que se perfila como uno de los mayores fracasos cinematográficos de 2026. Con una inversión cercana a los 300 millones de dólares, sus primeros resultados han estado muy por debajo de lo esperado. En Estados Unidos, la película apenas ha recaudado 37 millones de dólares, mientras que su cifra mundial ronda los 67 millones. Las previsiones de varios analistas indican que difícilmente superará los 200 millones en total, lo que supondría pérdidas cercanas a los 100 millones para el estudio. Aunque todavía queda pendiente su estreno en plataformas digitales, la decepción ha sido evidente. Peter Safran, uno de los máximos responsables de DC Studios, reconoció públicamente que la cinta no ha alcanzado las expectativas previstas. De esta forma, se suma a otros títulos de DC que tampoco lograron el éxito esperado, como *Green Lantern*, *Flash* o *Shazam*. La historia del cine ya ha vivido otros fracasos todavía más graves. Uno de los ejemplos más recordados es *La puerta del cielo*, dirigida por Michael Cimino tras el éxito de *El cazador*. A pesar de reunir un reparto de primer nivel, la película costó alrededor de 40 millones de dólares y solo recuperó tres en taquilla. Los continuos retrasos en el rodaje y su excesiva duración contribuyeron a un desastre financiero que terminó provocando la desaparición de United Artists como estudio independiente. Ni siquiera las grandes compañías se han librado de sufrir pérdidas millonarias. El fracaso comercial de *Titan A.E.* llevó al cierre de la división de animación de Fox, mientras que Disney perdió más de 200 millones con *John Carter* y también obtuvo resultados decepcionantes con *The Marvels*. Steven Spielberg tampoco escapó a esta tendencia, ya que la última entrega de *Indiana Jones* generó importantes pérdidas. Incluso adaptaciones de enorme prestigio, como *Cats*, basada en el famoso musical de Broadway, acabaron convirtiéndose en costosos fracasos tras recaudar muy por debajo de lo esperado.

Jace and Rocky break down all 17 DC releases for the week of June 24, 2026. They discuss Detective Comics #1100, where Batman, Green Arrow and Black Canary continue investigating Prion's past while the mystery surrounding the young assassin tied to his grave becomes more complicated. Bizarro Year None #2 follows Perry White and Jimmy Olsen as they try to understand the strange rules of Bizarro's square world as the series begins framing this as a distorted Bizarro origin story. Harley Quinn #63 continues Harley's darker current direction as the monochromatic infection and her fractured emotional state push her further from the zanier version of the character. Absolute Superman #20 returns with a massive battle against King Shazam as Superman, Steel and Hawkman are forced to confront whether overwhelming power can be stopped without sacrificing innocent lives. Green Lantern #36 reconnects Kyle Rayner and Jade while Odyssey's identity and past remain in question. Gotham Academy: First Year #5 follows Olive Silverlock's nightmare as it forces her to confront fears about her mother's legacy while Batman and the Gotham Academy cast move closer to the final issue. Absolute Wonder Woman #21 focuses on Absolute Wonder Woman's time in Hell separating her from Barbara Minerva, whose captivity and connection to a dangerous feline god open new questions about her future. The Peril of the Brutal Dark: An Ezra Cain Mystery #5 sees Ezra Cain's pulp adventure escalate into a Nazi-blimp action sequence that leans hard into the series' darker Indiana Jones energy. Flash #34 has Ryan North explain Flash's new precognitive ability through data, speed and probability while keeping the story light, accessible and emotionally grounded. Superman #39 pushes Superboy-Prime through multiple comic-book realities as Manchester Black tests whether he has truly changed, while Dan Mora shifts art styles to match each world. Superman: Father of Tomorrow #2 sees Jor-El refuse to let Kryptonian technology be used for weapons while Lex Luthor secretly moves forward with non-lethal weapon development, and the issue brings in Klarion and John Constantine as magic emerges as a weakness for this version of Superman. Wonder Woman #34 brings Wonder War to Diana's confrontation with Matriarch, as the fight centers on whether Wonder Woman's willpower can overcome a Green Lantern ring that Matriarch has spent years forcing to obey her. The issue also ends with Diana making a drastic choice involving the God Killer sword. Justice League Unlimited #20 has Wonder Woman nearly reach Brainiac Queen before Lex Luthor's arrogance and his use of Warp ruin the Justice League's chance to turn her, leaving her missing and possibly setting up a "Cyber Earth" timeline. Swamp Thing 1989 #3 brings Rick Veitch's long-delayed story to its most epic chapter yet, with Swamp Thing existing across different points in DC history and Darkseid appearing in a way that fits the elemental scope of the story. Zatanna #3 pits Zatanna against Agent Di Manes, whose power of quietude suppresses her voice and directly attacks the way she uses magic, while the story also involves Elodi and a muse spirit tied to a dead singer. Summer of Supergirl Special #1 continues from Lobo #4, putting Supergirl and Lobo on trial while Crush, Krypto and Dawg get pulled into the chaos, and the special also includes a Supergirl/Mary Marvel team-up plus a Mark Waid story connecting different versions of Supergirl's history. Justice League: Dream Girls #4 concludes with the Justice League apologizing to Galaxy and giving her mission leader rank, while Dreamer chooses not to join the League yet because she still needs to understand her powers on her own. They also give a rundown of this week's collected editions, reprints and facsimile releases. As always, all books are ranked from top to bottom and each host gives a Book of the Week pick.

⁠Jurandir Filho⁠, ⁠Rogério Montanare⁠, ⁠Thiago Siqueira⁠ e ⁠Fernanda Schmölz⁠ conversam sobre como muitos youtubers estão conquistando Hollywood. Durante décadas, assistir a vídeos era um ritual controlado por poucas empresas. A televisão decidia o que seria exibido, os cinemas escolhiam quais histórias mereciam espaço e os grandes estúdios definiam quem teria chance de criar. Para entrar nesse mundo, era preciso dinheiro, contatos e, muitas vezes, sorte. Então surgiu o YouTube. No começo, parecia apenas um site de vídeos engraçados, memes e gravações caseiras em baixa qualidade. Mas, sem que muita gente percebesse, ele estava mudando completamente a relação das pessoas com entretenimento, informação e criatividade.Talvez uma das maiores mudanças tenha sido o fato de que Hollywood passou a observar o YouTube em busca de novos talentos. Durante décadas, cineastas precisavam entrar em festivais, estudar em escolas tradicionais ou trabalhar anos na indústria até receber alguma oportunidade. Hoje, um vídeo viral pode mudar completamente a vida de alguém. O YouTube se tornou uma gigantesca vitrine de diretores, roteiristas, atores, animadores e artistas visuais.Foi aí que sugiram David F. Sandberg ("Annabelle", "Shazam!"), Neill Blomkamp ("Distrito 9"), Fede Álvarez ("A Morte do Demônio") e os recentes Kane Parsons ("Backrooms") e Curry Barker ("Obsessão").

Key Topics •       Sarah's Oil: The remarkable true story of a 10-year-old girl whose childlike faith turned 160 acres into the largest pure oil reserve in North America •       Why excellent storytelling—not preaching—is how faith gets metabolized by culture •       Zachary's faith journey: from near-suicidal darkness eight years ago to a deeper, wider, more grace-filled walk with God •       The identity trap: what acting taught him about separating your work from your worth •       Wyldwood: building a modern-day Hershey, Pennsylvania for artists—intentional community, redemptive storytelling, and an answer to AI •       Why AI is a biblical flood—and why that's the reason to build, not retreat Notable Quotes "When I started working in Hollywood and I got my first look behind the curtain and I saw how all the sausage was made, I was heartbroken because I care too much about other human beings and excellence to find myself working in an industry that doesn't care about either of those things." — Zachary Levi "There is a way to get messaging in your art that is not proselytizing. There's a way. And that is the way." — Zachary Levi "A biblical flood is coming. It's not rain, it is technology. And the ground is already permeating. The water is rising." — Zachary Levi
