Future Apple wearables, iOS 27 beta 5, iPhone 20 details

Benjamin and Chance talk about all the changes in iOS 27 beta 5, as Apple reportedly takes a fresh look at fitness wearables, details about the glassy iPhone 20, Friday Night Baseball on Vision Pro and more rumors about Apple TV sports rights — this time, golf.
