Engadget Podcast: Apple bows to the Trump regime (again)

In this episode of the Engadget Podcast, hosts Devindra Hardawar and Sam Rutherford discuss Apple's latest $100 billion investment in the United States, which is seen as an attempt to avoid the Trump administration's chaotic tariff plans. The hosts also criticize Apple's decision to present a unique plaque with a 24-karat gold base to President Trump, viewing it as an embarrassing attempt to appease the administration. The podcast also covers other tech news, including Nintendo's blockbuster Switch 2 sales numbers and price hikes for the original Switch models, Trump's demand for Intel's new CEO to step down due to conflicts of interest, and Hulu's plan to shut down its app in 2026 and be absorbed into Disney+. The hosts also answer listener questions on topics such as HDMI or optical connections for soundbars, moving off of Windows 10, and alternatives to the Lenovo Yoga 7.
