00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,640
Speaker 1: Dan Mitchins and US Correspondence with US. Hello Dan, Hi,

2
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:06,440
Speaker 1: Heather Dan. So in New York City's using drones? Is

3
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:07,480
Speaker 1: it to try and crime fight?

4
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I was a little skeptical when I

5
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:12,479
Speaker 2: first started hearing about this. These are going to be

6
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 2: deployed remotely, and they'll fly to the exact long, longitude

7
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 2: and latitude of these emergencies right here. And this is

8
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:22,760
Speaker 2: a program that's kind of trying to get the drones

9
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 2: to the scene before the officers can get there. And

10
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 2: once they arrive there, they're going to have a location

11
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 2: taken into account. They'll be able to see what's going on.

12
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: They've got cameras and night vision technology and stuff like that.

13
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 2: I think what they're trying to do is really stop

14
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 2: a lot of the wild goose chases that police are

15
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 2: often sent on, you know, reports of shots fire that

16
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,599
Speaker 2: aren't or a robbery that wasn't, or calls people make

17
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 2: just to annoy the police and tie up their resources,

18
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 2: so that means other crimes are are sometimes pushed back.

19
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,239
Speaker 2: So I think maybe this is actually a good use

20
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 2: of money and resources and could be rolled out in

21
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 2: other cities if you're proved successful.

22
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean, the thing is a lot of

23
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: people will start to you know, people are a little

24
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: suspicious at the moment, right and they funny ideas and stuff,

25
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: and I wonder if people are going to think that

26
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: this is actually surveillance.

27
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 2: That's that was my other thought too, that if this

28
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 2: gets a pushback at all, it's going to be from

29
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,399
Speaker 2: people that are saying, well, these drones are spying on people,

30
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 2: or they're out in public right now and I haven't

31
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 2: given them permission for my usage. It's the same way

32
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 2: when you see Google go around and you know, take

33
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 2: shots of neighborhoods, they often blow out you know, license

34
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 2: plates and people's faces and addresses and stuff like that,

35
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 2: which at this point these drones aren't going to be

36
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 2: able to do.

37
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I suppose that's a fair point. Now, Elon Musk

38
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,680
Speaker 1: and Donald Trump, I'm surprised that they don't sick of

39
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: each other by now.

40
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 2: You know, your your producer, Laura, she called this a bromance,

41
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 2: and I said, that's exactly I think what it is

42
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 2: right now. I mean, he Trump was attending the space

43
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,559
Speaker 2: launch in Texas with with Elon Musk just a short

44
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 2: time ago, and of course, you know Musk has been

45
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 2: tapped ahead, you know that the KIA to oversee the

46
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 2: Yes doge to improve the government efficiency here. And I'll

47
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 2: tell you howther In the last couple of weeks since

48
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 2: the election, I mean, these guys have been pretty much inseparable,

49
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 2: and he's Musk is hopped on the phone with at

50
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 2: least a couple of foreign leaders, and he's been tapped

51
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 2: in lead this efficiency commission, and he's offered advice to

52
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 2: Trump's transition team and you know, hunker down at the

53
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 2: President of Lex place in Florida. And my question is

54
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 2: is this going to last? Or are these two of

55
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,839
Speaker 2: the world's biggest personalities and egos. Yeah, and they're gonna

56
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 2: say after a while, it's going to be ah.

57
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: So, I was listening to Anthony Scaramucci's podcast, which is

58
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: actually surprisingly brilliant, I have to be honest, and he

59
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,119
Speaker 1: made the point that when he first was taken into

60
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: the White House to work for Trump, he was warned

61
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: by I think it was by Callianne Conway or somebody

62
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: like that, and she said, be careful. You will be

63
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 1: the teacher's pet for about two weeks, and then after

64
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: that he's going to be sick of you, and he's

65
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: going to get rid of you. And this this is

66
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 1: the risk that Elon Musk runs, right, that he gets

67
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: way too much Trump Trump time, and Trump Trump just

68
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,239
Speaker 1: gets bored of him and then there's some sort of

69
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: an explosion.

70
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 2: I think you're right, you know, I mean, I mean

71
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 2: it's a boost to both her egos, and I mean

72
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 2: Trump's got a guy next to him that's got up.

73
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 2: You know, he's like a money printing press with a

74
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 2: lot of resources from satellite to cars to social media.

75
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 2: But I think you're right. I think in six months

76
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 2: from now, we're going to say, hey, whatever happened to

77
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 2: that bromance, and he's going to be on to somebody else. Honestly,

78
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 2: I think that's why.

79
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then Elon Musk will be hosting podcasts about

80
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,359
Speaker 1: how much he also hates Donald Trump. Listen. Why is

81
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: it that so many adults young adults are still living

82
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: with their parents.

83
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 2: It's because the cost of housing. I mean, pre pandemic,

84
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 2: I mean most of the eighteen to thirty four year

85
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 2: olds were living with their moms and dads. There were

86
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 2: a number of them. It pushed upwards after the pandemic.

87
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 2: And I know it's not cheap. In fact, I was

88
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 2: doing some digging around. You're part of the world and

89
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 2: Auckland right now. A median home price can be, depending

90
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 2: on where you live, anywhere from about nine hundred and

91
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 2: seventy thousand, they're saying to a million dollars. And if

92
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 2: you look at a city, say like where I grew

93
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 2: up in San Diego in California, less than a third

94
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 2: of people there can afford to buy it. The medium

95
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 2: price is about one point two million dollars. And and

96
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 2: this is what blew my mind. I mean I had

97
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 2: to check a couple of people I know that are

98
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 2: in the real estate business. The median age for a

99
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 2: person to buy a home in a city like San

100
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 2: Diego fifty four years old. I mean, think about that,

101
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 2: fifty four. That's when you're thinking about retiring in me.

102
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: Hey, you want your movie it's paid off by fifty

103
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: four if you can.

104
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd like that, not you know, not getting into

105
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 2: something that you're going to pay off over another twenty

106
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 2: five or thirty years and have to worry about taxes

107
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 2: and stuff. So, I mean, this is why we're seeing

108
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 2: people all around the world now staying with mom and dad. Yeah.

109
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 2: Good luck.

110
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, Dan, thanks very much, appreciate good luck and get out, Dan,

111
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,160
