Some personal news: TWISTED METAL SEASON 2 is now available on @peacock! 92% on @RottenTomatoes so far! I had the pleasure of watching my older brother & (#TwistedMetal showrunner) @beardymcwhisker make the show when he filmed up in Toronto last summer, so I can tell you.

The iPhone 16e is the most interesting iPhone in years, but not for the reason you'd expect. Fun putting my tech writer hat back on for @FortuneMagazine - for old times' sake

The new iPhone 16e could spell the beginning of the end for Apple's business with Qualcomm's cellular modems.

The world's biggest thanks go out to @ajs and @Jim_Edwards, for their constant support and making all this possible. Fortune is, without a doubt, the best newsroom I've been a part of, and they are key to its success.

Pretty crazy to think that Siri — yes, Siri — will be a major reason people upgrade their iPhones this year. New from me:

You can’t experience Apple Intelligence and the new-and-improved Siri without an iPhone 15 or later.

Apple's now digging into INTELLIGENCE, including all the fun things you'll be able to do.
In a throwback to my days as a tech editor, I'm live-blogging the #WWDC keynote for @FortuneMagazine. Join me! Some very cool announcements so far.

Artificial intelligence—rather, Apple Intelligence—was the centerpiece of the company's keynote for WWDC 2024.

I had the pleasure of interviewing @PhilRosenthal — the creator of "Everybody Loves Raymond" and host of Netflix's "Somebody Feed Phil" — about his life and career, and how others can emulate his success.

“This is the lesson,” Phil Rosenthal tells Fortune. “You literally have to write your own ticket. There’s nobody standing out there waiting for you. You have to make it happen.”

Fun fact: I actually wrote this entire story inside Apple Vision Pro.
“You’ll find plenty of reviews breaking down Apple Vision Pro every which way to Sunday. But I wanted to offer a review from the POV of a dad who spends 90% of his day either working or spending time with his kid.”. My latest for @FortuneMagazine:.

Being a dad isn’t easy, but Apple Vision Pro is an excellent tool to ease the mind.

Kirsten is one of the hardest working journalists I know. She helped build BI’s significant entertainment footprint from the ground up - truly a remarkable achievement. But most of all, she’s a wonderful person, with a big heart. Any team would be extremely lucky to have her.
Woke up this morning to learn that after nearly 12 years, today was my last day at Business Insider. I was among those laid off. I'm extremely proud of helping to build up an entertainment team from two people & of my TV/film/theme park coverage.
