1:06
whole you know several hours worth of
1:07
content to listen to right out of the
1:09

the Nike Nike Nike is it Nike Plus iPod
1:31
sport kit the company's first foray into

an iPod Nano and uh I I admit I as
1:39
excited I am to hear that this exists I
1:40
have not yet subscribed and started
1:42
listening to it but uh you did right you
1:46
checked out at least one episode oh yeah
1:48
I I was you know I didn't I didn't know
1:49
that if if Graham or Charlie had any
1:52
experience podcasting before but you
1:54
know it is a very finely produced
1:55
podcast like the artwork is is gorgeous
1:58
it's very thoroughly researched they're
2:01
very pleasant voices to listen to it's
2:03
uh nicely edited and put together like
2:05
they they clearly put a lot of work into
2:07
their show notes I'll admit I had I had
2:09
no clue the the Nike Plus iPod sport kit
2:12
existed oh really you know even as an
2:15
Apple history fici andado who's like
2:16
paying attention to things around that
2:18
time but like yeah I I I had no clue
2:20
that product existed and you know they
2:21
they they tell the whole story of this
2:22
weird thing you know beginning to end
2:25
you haven't been reading today in Apple
2:26
history religiously enough yeah it's
2:28
it's weird like it it feels like they
2:30
they covered three different topics that
2:32
pretty much lined up with the our today
2:34
in Apple history posts that were
2:35
published around that same time what a
2:37
coincidence yeah yeah it's almost like
2:39
they work here or something yeah you
2:41
know uh I I saw the the lead graphic
2:45
that uh Graham provided us with you know
2:47
and yeah it's great he he always does
2:49
great great images I mean he's a
2:51
designer and uh he's also very
2:54
meticulous you know he's a he's a good
2:57
journalist and a good you know how-to
2:59
writer and uh also super nice guy and uh
3:04
Fitness buff my God I I I he challenged
3:07
me to some apple watch Fitness things a
3:10
we you'll never guess who won but uh I I
3:14
still get like daily messages on my
3:18
Apple watch Graham just finished a
3:19
workout 5K outdoor run it's like oh my
3:22
God I I read this stuff and I'm like I
3:26

3:33
point grah just finished another one and
3:36
a half hour weight training uh workout
3:39
ah gez okay Graham slow down buddy
3:43
you're already ripped I guess that's how
3:46
mhm like this Nike thing it was like a a
3:49
Nike product that required you to buy a
3:51
special shoe that had a hole in it and
3:53
then you had like a dongle thing that
3:54
you put in there and like another thing
3:55
that you plugged into the light like you
3:57
know 30 pin iPod connector on your IP
4:00
where they had an iPod Nano or something
4:01
else and it you know it was basically
4:03
doing what the Apple watch does now so
4:06
that that's where it all started
4:07
fascinating so I got to say I I've you
4:11
know worked with Charlie
4:13
uh many times conversed with him many
4:15
times in slack but I've I've never
4:17
actually heard his voice you know he
4:18
also has a very soft English accent just
4:21
like Graham I'm definitely going to
