LTA 157: September 2026

After the relatively quiet last few months of the summer, September was a big month for Apple news. The shows starts with a few followups to previously covered stories, just one regulatory story, a few updates on Apple-related legal cases, and two HR-related stories. Then we take a quick look at Apple's services and original content, before moving on to the main stories. The first has gone rather under the radar, a whole new Apple Maps API for auto-makers, the second is the biggest story of the month, the new hardware from the 'Surprise and Shine' event, and the third is the release of the 27 versions of Apple's many OSes. The show finished with a quick look at a few other Apple-related stories that made the new in September. Listen, subscribe, and get the show notes at lets-talk.ie/lta157.
