Transcript of the segment

What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: The Verge.

  1. Vera BullockApple's first foldable iPhone, the Duo, is up for preorder at one thousand nine hundred ninety-nine dollars, with a five point four inch outer screen that unfolds into something bigger.

  2. Vera BullockJoining us from FCI Danbury is Cornelius Boyd, inmate forty thousand seven hundred eighteen and library aide.

  3. Vera BullockCornelius, why are you the expert on a folding phone?

  4. Cornelius Abernathy BoydVera, I have spent a lot of time around things that fold, and I'd say the crease is where the truth comes out.

  5. Cornelius Abernathy BoydIn a purely hypothetical sense.

  6. Vera BullockSo is it worth two thousand dollars?

  7. Cornelius Abernathy BoydA hinge that opens and closes ten thousand times a year is a commitment.

  8. Cornelius Abernathy BoydI once watched a man build a whole business on one good fold. Hypothetically.

  9. Vera BullockA whole business.

  10. Cornelius Abernathy BoydI mean a pamphlet company. Very legal pamphlets.

  11. Cornelius Abernathy BoydAnyway, the trick is never to fold the same line twice, and I learned that in a purely hypothetical sense, during a hypothetical trial.

  12. Vera BullockCornelius, you keep flattening that napkin. What is it?

  13. Cornelius Abernathy BoydIt's just a napkin.

  14. Cornelius Abernathy BoydIt used to be a very convincing flip phone, in a purely hypothetical sense, and the warden has not said a word about it.

  15. Vera BullockBut you didn't answer the question. Would you buy the Duo?

  16. Cornelius Abernathy BoydVera, I'd only ever fold one for free. Hypothetically, I'm on a payment plan with the government already. Okay, the napkin is evidence.

  17. Vera BullockWell, preorders are open, and the napkin stays where it is.
