We hear a magnet works, too
Actually, my name is Emilia, and this is really about how I dropped one of my Apple AirPod headphones down a subway grate this week, and then somehow got it back. It’s a story that a lot of AirPod owners can probably relate to — or one that makes them deeply anxious.I exit the New York Magazine office on Canal and Varick Street and walk to the curb. As I wait for the light to change, I pull my AirPod case from my coat pocket and flip it open.

I’ve never received so many DMs in my life. Like, hundreds and hundreds of DMs from people I haven’t spoken to in years, or only slept with once. Clearly, I hit a nerve.
My co-worker Diana and I run downstairs, our adrenaline pumping. We go to the Blue Bottle coffee in the lobby and explain breathlessly that we need some string to tie around a magnetic rod to retrieve a lost AirPod. The baristas stare back at us, confused for a moment, and then disappear into the back. They return with exactly what we’re looking for. .youtube[data-uri="www.thecut.com/_components/youtube/instances/cjp1qy9f8001l3a61ntqi9seu@published"].
