Apple SVP Eddy Cue and Propagate Content co-CEO Ben Silverman talk with Recode's Peter Kafka about Apple's first TV programs, "Planet of the Apps" and "Carpool Karaoke," which will be distributed on Apple Music. "Planet of the Apps" tells the story of several software developers competing for $10 million in venture capital investment; "Carpool Karaoke" is a spinoff of the popular comedy segment from "The Late Late Show With James Corden." Later in the interview, "Carpool" producer Ben Winston joins the group onstage. Cue says Apple is using its music-streaming platform as a place to try new things that competitors aren't doing, including reality TV, but won't say if Apple will offer a "skinny bundle" of TV channels. They also discuss the podcasting resurgence, what Apple can do about fake news and when Amazon will have an app on Apple TV.
