Jeff & Tyler record first impressions right after the September 10th Apple Keynote that launched the new iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, The New iPad, Apple Watch Series 5, and pricing info about Apple TV+ and Arcade (hint: $4.99).

Lastly, they chat about the surprisingly impressive Apple Card, the might just be the best "points" credit card on the market.

We discuss the psychology of addiction, the power of self deception, and how he needed to hit a "rock bottom" near-death 315 pounds before getting clean, sober and in the best shape of his life.
