I was going to 7 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: get it for a friend Christmas. I was like, seventy 8 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:19,159 Speaker 1: five bucks. I can't afford that. I'm going to go 9 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 1: order one, and they're like, march. 10 00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 2: I know, and I keep it's so funny, and I 11 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 2: think I said this the first time. I want it 12 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 2: so bad. I keep like using the finger on my 13 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 2: index like my thumb on my index finger to like 14 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 2: mimic where it would be to like kind of practice 15 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 2: when I have it, Like I'm in the car, I'm like, oh, 16 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:39,879 Speaker 2: I have a thought. Let me see if I can 17 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 2: do that right now. And I'm like, okay, cool, I'm 18 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 2: ready for this thing. 19 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:43,159 Speaker 3: I love that. 20 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,520 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be invaluable to me because 21 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:47,879 Speaker 1: I have the memory of a nat and so I 22 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: think it's going to help me out a lot. Okay, 23 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:53,560 Speaker 1: let's talk about Instagram, because Instagram is leaving your wild 24 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: staying on your phone, but it's also heading to your TV. 25 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,040 Speaker 2: I downloaded the new app yesterday. It's on fire T 26 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 2: and it's basically Instagram reels, and I got to say 27 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: it had me hooked. I watched for maybe twenty minutes. 28 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 2: I was like, Okay, this is kind of cool because 29 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 2: when you're on your phone, you're sitting there and you're 30 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 2: basically doing it in between other stuff that you know 31 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,680 Speaker 2: you need to do. When you're sitting on your couch 32 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 2: and watching your TV, it's a whole different story. So 33 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 2: I was able to be engaged with the reels, and 34 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 2: of course I'm playing more of them, and that is, 35 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 2: you know, good for Instagram, good for creator. So again, 36 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 2: Instagram app available for fire TV lets you flip through 37 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 2: your reels, and I was impressed. I might start opening 38 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 2: this app on a regular basis on my TV. 39 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 3: Okay, And then. 40 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: Here's a question, because you know, when you've got it 41 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: on your phone, you're swiping and tapping and all of 42 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: that stuff. 43 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 3: How do you navigate it on TV? 44 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 2: You can use the remote, but it's leaned back, so 45 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 2: the reels just play and the next one pops up, 46 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 2: or you can just you know, switch to the next one. 47 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 2: By pressing the almost like the channel up or down button. 48 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 2: But basically that's it. And so I was flipping through, 49 00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: I was watching, I was flipping. It was great, I mean, 50 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 2: really really kind of fun. Different way to consume those. 51 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 3: Does it cost anything? 52 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 2: It is free, just your attention and the other things 53 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 2: you're not doing. You're just the time of the things 54 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 2: you're not getting done exactly. 55 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 3: And is it AD free? 56 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 2: I didn't encounter any ads, but I don't know if 57 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 2: it has ads or not, so that's a good question. 58 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 2: I didn't encounter any of my twenty minutes. 59 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 3: Okay, well we'll be watching for that. 60 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm sure they're there. I'm sure they will be there. 61 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay. 62 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: So Netflix is teaming up with iHeartMedia, our parent company, 63 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: to bring video podcasts to the platform. 64 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. Kind of an interesting move here because you know, 65 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 2: most video podcasts are on YouTube, and iHeart saying, you 66 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 2: know what, we think we have some pretty good podcasts 67 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 2: here that video podcast that people want to watch, some 68 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 2: from some big names like the Breakfast Club shows from 69 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 2: Chelsea Handler, Bobby Bones. Those are all going to be 70 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 2: on Netflix exclusively for the video. The audio will still 71 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 2: be available everywhere and So this is going to be 72 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 2: about fifteen shows to start, and it's kind of a 73 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 2: new thing for Netflix.
