Two Phones Ahead, One Android Version Behind ft. James Peckham

Like any TV series that has stuck around for a season too long, the Android Police podcast is back with another freaking week of Pixel leaks, this time on the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The long and short of it is that we're hoping it nails the landing, but wouldn't be surprised if it disappointed us when it launches with, say, a year-old version of Android. Also, our prospects on a folding iPhone and discourse on an ABC primetime show from the year 200-something as brought on by Android Police editor-in-chief and natural wellspring purveyor James Peckham.
