Did the iPhone Change Everything... Including Us?

Chasing Life

When the first iPhone was unveiled, it sparked a tech revolution. But who could have imagined how much it would reshape our lives?

In this episode, Sanjay sits down with CNN’s Chief Climate Correspondent Bill Weir to talk about his new documentary 50 Years of Apple — exploring how our devices have woven themselves into our homes, our habits, and even our parenting. They dig into the rise of screen addiction, what constant device use may be doing to our brains, and where Apple (and our tech‑filled future) may be headed next.
