Hey Siri! Stop Interrupting Our Regular Programming

Dear KUOW listeners,

We apologize for the inconvenience several of you experienced recently when listening to a story about distracted driving and Siri, the personal assistant who lives inside the iPhone.

It has come to our attention that every time reporter Carolyn Adolph shouted, “Hey Siri!” to her own phone, your Siri perked up and interrupted the story, preventing you from listening all the way through. Now we know the answer to the question, “Siri, are you jealous of other Siris?”

Again, our apologies,

KUOW Web team
