Siri Delayed Again — And a Ray-Ban Meta Glasses Review with Nate Gorby
Tom flies solo this week and welcomes first-time guest Nate Gorby for a conversation about Apple’s ongoing Siri delays, the state of Apple Intelligence, and what it all means for everyday users.
“At this point, I would be greatly satisfied if they would just get Siri to the point where if I told the Apple Watch to do something, it worked every time.”
- Tom
They discuss the latest report that Apple’s context-aware Siri may be pushed back again, whether privacy is helping or hurting Apple’s AI progress, and why even basic Siri tasks still frustrate longtime users.
In the second half, Nate shares his real-world experience using Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses for the past year — what works surprisingly well, where privacy concerns come in, and whether Apple needs to move faster in the wearable AI space.
“The first time I was really like, wow, these are the future and they’re pretty cool.”
- Nate Gorby

Lifelong tech lover. I’m more in the Apple ecosystem than I care to admit, but ignorance is bliss. I love to write in all forms, journaling, jokes, and more commonly Threads posts. I love stand up comedy, tv shows, movies. I feel like I’m the only person that doesn’t use YouTube or TikTok on a regular basis. When the weather permits I love camping, hiking, biking and boating.
