1
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:09,920
Speaker 1: Motorola brings back the Razor, Android finally gets its I message.

Speaker 1: Disney Plus is here and your tech questions answered. What's

00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 1: going on? I'm Rich Demiro. This is Rich on Tech,

4
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 1: the podcast where I talk about the stuff that I

5
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,480
Speaker 1: think you should know about happening in the tech world.

6
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: Plus it's the place where I answer the questions that

7
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 1: you send me, and believe me, you send them to me.

8
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,160
Speaker 1: Thanks and welcome to the show, especially if you're listening

9
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: for the first time. Maybe it found me through Leo

10
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 1: Laporte's show. Let me bring on Megan producer.

11
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,639
Speaker 2: Megan, what's up, my.

12
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: Trustee sidekick here for loaded with questions.

13
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,839
Speaker 3: Today, right, Yeah, We've got a lot of good questions,

14
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 3: lots of good questions I've never seen before.

15
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,480
Speaker 1: They come in fast and furious, that's for sure. And

16
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: it's almost a full time job to just answer all

17
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: these questions, but I do. And you know, if you

18
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: write me, most of the time you will get a response,

19
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 1: as long as you're not crazy, and maybe if you're

20
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: crazy you might get one sometimes. So you know, I

21
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 1: was out late last night, yeah, because Megan had to

22
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 1: do a little extra time this morning to make sure

23
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: our segment was ready for the air at five am,

24
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: but I didn't stay out too late, probably like ten o'clock,

25
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,759
Speaker 1: but still you still have to wake up at like yeah,

26
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: like three.

27
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

28
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 1: So but I was at the for a good reason.

29
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 1: I went to the Motorola launch party for the Razor.

30
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: And so the way it worked is we had Motorola

31
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 1: in the studio in the morning and then at night.

32
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 2: You know, like twelve hours later basically.

33
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: I mean they came in at eight am, no, nine am, yeah,

34
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,839
Speaker 1: and the party started at seven pm, so you're talking

35
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 1: almost eleven hours later.

36
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

37
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,759
Speaker 1: I went, you know, to the party, and the party

38
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: was held in downtown Los Angeles at like you know

39
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 1: this new like arts district where a lot of stuff

40
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: is seemingly to start there. Now it's like growing.

41
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's really cool.

42
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it is really cool.

43
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: The place was, I forget, it's called like the Container Yard,

44
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 1: and it was you walk so when you got into

45
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: this party, you walk in through this design that this

46
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: art designer had made. It was like an installation and

47
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: it was all these refrigerators filled with ice, but like

48
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: sculptures of like old Moto Razor phones and like just

49
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: general Motorola stuff.

50
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 2: It was really odd.

51
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: It was almost like a haunted house kind of walking through.

52
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: So you get through there scared. It was a little apprehensive.

53
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: We have to wait outline for like outside in line

54
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:25,799
Speaker 1: for like half an hour, and everyone's like, why do

55
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 1: they have to wait this part?

56
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 2: It's not like an open party.

57
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that was the reason why, because they only

58
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: let like ten or fifteen people in this little area

59
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: at once to like look at these art exhibits.

60
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 3: They didn't want it to melt.

61
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, well it was in refrigerators. And then you go

62
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 1: outside and the party was actually outside in the middle

63
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: of this thing. Diplo was there playing tunes.

64
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 3: Diplow was there.

65
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I listened to his songs. I don't really know Diplo.

66
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 3: I know Diplo does a lot of no Diplo.

67
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 1: But he does a lot of like you know, collaborations. Yeah,

68
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: he's not like his own like you know justin Bieber.

69
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 2: I knew that song. He does a lot of collaps, he.

70
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 3: Does clap, but he's also a DJA. He has his

71
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 3: own It.

72
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 2: Was great DJ, great DJ.

73
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: But the way they launched this phone is kind of

74
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: ironic because it was all of a sudden Diplo came

75
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 1: on and they introduced him or whatever, and then there's

76
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: like this whole thing, this garage that opened up to

77
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: all these smoke and mirrors, and that's what they showed

78
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: the phones on, which is kind of ironic for a phone.

79
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: You don't usually want to associate smoke and mirrors with

80
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,399
Speaker 1: your product. But it worked and it was very impressive.

81
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: I will say that the early reaction to this product

82
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 1: and we went hands on with it, now a lot

83
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: of people have seen it, is that it's very cool.

84
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: They did a great job with the foldable design on

85
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,839
Speaker 1: the screen, unlike some other phones we've seen out there

86
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: that just kind of were almost a proof of concept.

87
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 2: But let me go through some.

88
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: Of the specs here, so it's a you know, they

89
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: kept kind of the phone the same way as you

90
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: remember back when you had it in like two thousand

91
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: and five or whatever. But now when you open it up,

92
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: the entire thing is a screen that is a foldable screen.

93
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 1: So it's a six point two inch foldable plastic o

94
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: lead panel. It is running Android nine, which I was

95
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: a little disappointed at because you would want Android ten.

96
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: I think Android just needs to do away with the

97
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: versions and just focus on like if it has the

98
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: current software updates, because realistically, the difference between nine and

99
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: ten for most people is not a big deal, but

100
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,280
Speaker 1: it's still just it's a way for tech reporters to

101
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: just be like, oh, this phone is already outdated.

102
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 3: Exactly, They're already a year behind.

103
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 1: Right, But the way that Android works versus iPhone is

104
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 1: just not the same.

105
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 2: So let's just.

106
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: Drop the version numbers for Android and just focus on

107
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: does this phone get current software updates?

108
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 2: Because most of what you can.

109
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: Accomplish on an Android versus iPhone is done through app updates,

110
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: not the main software update.

111
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 2: Does that make sense?

112
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 3: That makes sense?

113
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 2: Like you can add like.

114
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: Any feature you want basically to an Android phone by

115
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 1: just downloading an app, and it'll change kind of how

116
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: that phone works now certain core features. Maybe you need

117
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: the new operating system anyway. So the design is really cool.

118
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 1: It's got a fingerprint sensor, which is nice. It's got

119
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: USBC on the bottom. Again, the screen inside is really cool.

120
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 1: There's also a screen on the outside which is two

121
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: point seven inches, And they said that they made sure

122
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: they worked on this screen a lot so that it's

123
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 1: not going to fail.

124
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 2: And nothing can get behind it.

125
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: Like little specks of dust that will take down the

126
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 1: entire phone. I will say that the open and closed

127
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: mechanism is definitely not as simple as the original.

128
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 2: So my wife went me to the party last night.

129
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: And by the way, she does a great job with

130
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: like holding things in her hand, like she was a

131
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: little hand model.

132
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 2: She was like, oh, shoot a quick video of me.

133
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 3: She wanted to take a video.

134
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 2: For her dad.

135
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 1: No, for her dad, she wanted to send him a video.

136
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: And so I watched her do this and like she

137
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 1: actually did a great job of like showing off the

138
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: phone whatever. She maybe featured in a future segment. Yeah,

139
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: so she but she did notice when she picked up

140
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 1: she said, wow, this is actually very impressive. But she

141
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,039
Speaker 1: did notice that it is a little bit tougher to

142
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:54,919
Speaker 1: open and close with one hand than the original.

143
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 2: It's heavier and it's just different.

144
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 3: That's a great point, good observation. Yeah, I didn't actually

145
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 3: get told it yesterday.

146
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 2: See.

147
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: Oh and I told her this too. I said, I

148
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 1: actually mentioned you and Luis. I said, it's funny because

149
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: she didn't touch it either. And I was like, Lynn,

150
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 1: get in there, like go touch the phone, like pick

151
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: it up, feel it. And I said, so many times

152
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:12,919
Speaker 1: you go to these tech events where I have my

153
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: producer and my photographer. We're so busy collecting everything and

154
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:16,359
Speaker 1: getting it.

155
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,239
Speaker 2: We need to touch it. You actually don't touch the product. Yeah.

156
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 3: My sister asked me about the iPhone when we went

157
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 3: to the event. She was like, did you hold it?

158
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 2: And I was like, no, So always remember, like just

159
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,600
Speaker 2: get in there, like just just you know, grab it.

160
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 3: I feel like I'm working. I can't which give me,

161
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 3: give me twenty minutes.

162
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 1: But it happens to me too, like sometimes I will forget.

163
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: I will go through my motions of what I want

164
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: to do for air and I'll forget to like actually

165
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 1: just kind of play for a little bit and just

166
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: see how this thing works.

167
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:42,720
Speaker 2: So it's one of those things you just have to remember.

168
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 2: And she was like, oh my gosh, you're right.

169
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 3: So did she like it?

170
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 2: She loved it. She thought it was really great.

171
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: She said it's gonna be tough to compete with the iPhone,

172
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 1: right obviously, but she was very impressed. And I think

173
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 1: that's the I haven't read any of the reviews, the

174
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: early reviews, but it seems like people are impressed with

175
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: what Motorol has done, and I think that's a good thing.

176
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 1: That's cool. It's not a phone for specs. This thing

177
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: has an older processor. It's not as fast as the

178
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: flagship's Snapdragon. It also doesn't have the best camera. It's

179
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: it's just an average camera.

180
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 2: What else.

181
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: It's exclusive to Verizon. It's going to be fifteen hundred dollars,

182
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: so it's super expensive. The one question she asked, which

183
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: I thought was pretty good, was is it going to

184
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: come in colors? And right now the party line is that.

185
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 2: It's just black. Whatever color we saw yesterday that black guy.

186
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 3: I have a feeling that coming.

187
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 1: But I think they elluded last night that there's going

188
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: to be some fun colors and I think that would

189
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: make a lot of sense. Again, and you can close

190
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: the phone to end a call, which is really neat.

191
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: So is this a major win for Motorola. Probably too

192
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 1: early to tell, but I do think that they did

193
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: a nice job with this. They did their homework. Is

194
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 1: it the phone for everyone? Probably not. Is it going

195
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: to make people switch from iPhone? Probably not? But is

196
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: it something that when people walk into Verizon and if

197
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: they do some sort of special on it, maybe get

198
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 1: the price down or I also see it as kind

199
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 1: of like rich executives that want like a phone that

200
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: fits in there their soup pocket. Like it's a little

201
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: bit more comfortable. It's heavy, but it's it's a nice feel,

202
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: and so I think it's gonna appeal to those types

203
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 1: of people and anyone who wants to make like a statement,

204
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: like someone who doesn't need the craziest, flashiest phone or

205
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: even an iPhone, This is going to appeal to.

206
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 3: That's why I already ordered it.

207
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: I know you love your iPhone, so I know you're

208
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: not going to get it. Okay, that's the story with

209
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: the Motorola Razor.

210
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 3: Okay, let's start the first question of the day from Alexander.

211
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 3: He asks, I was wondering what are your thoughts? Oh sorry,

212
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 3: I watched your review on AirPods Pro when they were released,

213
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 3: and I was wondering, what are your thoughts on them

214
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 3: now that you've had you've owned them for a few weeks,

215
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 3: are you still using them or is there something you

216
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 3: prefer better for Jim slash travel.

217
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 2: Great question, and I like to follow up what's his

218
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 2: name again?

219
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 3: Alexander?

220
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: Alexander, So, here is the thing about the AirPods. They

221
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 1: are great, but you have to be comfortable with two things.

222
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: And my original review kind of stands. And I've been

223
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: using them for a while, like I've taken them on

224
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: four flights now, I have taken them to the gym

225
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 1: several times. They actually have fallen out of my ears

226
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: at the gym. The original air pods have never fallen

227
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 1: out of my ears once.

228
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 2: Actually that's not true.

229
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: They did once on a treadmill and it almost went

230
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 1: into the groove and I had to pull it out. Yeah,

231
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,719
Speaker 1: it actually did go into the groove. These fell out

232
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: of my ears a couple times, especially when you get sweaty,

233
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: they definitely start to want to fall out, and when

234
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,959
Speaker 1: you're kind of bending over doing a stretch something like that,

235
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 1: like on the treadmill. Not really an issue, but I

236
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: do notice myself pushing them into my ears more so.

237
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: My overall recommendation is go with the regular AirPods unless

238
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: you need the noise canceling and you want to consolidate

239
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,839
Speaker 1: your packing. When I pack for a flight, I take

240
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 1: a big pair of noise canceling headphones and my AirPods.

241
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: I like the idea of the AirPods pro because it's

242
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: just one thing, but I will say there's a lot

243
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: of pressure in your ears no matter what when you

244
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: have these things in noise canceling mode. That's just the reality.

245
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 3: I know.

246
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 1: Apple says they did all this work on them and

247
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: try to to make that not happen, and I feel

248
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: like it is less.

249
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,479
Speaker 2: But it's still there, Okay.

250
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,719
Speaker 1: So it's one of these things that it's And this

251
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: is the tough part about earbuds is that how do

252
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: you really try these things on? I mean, the best

253
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,839
Speaker 1: you can do is buy them and like return them

254
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: if they don't work for you. Yeah, I mean they

255
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 1: don't let you try them on at the store, Like

256
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 1: I don't even think Apple lets you do that. So

257
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: you can't see how these things are until you take

258
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: them home. You put them in and you use them

259
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 1: for a week or two, and you got to see

260
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: what the return pulse he is. Yeah, and it's not

261
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: bad if your return them, because they're just gonna replace

262
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: the little tip on them.

263
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 3: They should make like dummies that you can put on

264
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 3: in the store. They're just like lasting.

265
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 2: They should still like see the field with the little

266
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 2: tips that pop off, so you.

267
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 3: Just you don't know, pay two fifty. Yeah, yeah, I

268
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:42,559
Speaker 3: am curious about the return.

269
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 2: Post expensive thing.

270
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 1: I'm sure you can return them, and you know, I

271
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: mean you can return like a computer to Apple store.

272
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 3: Yeah.

273
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 2: So they might charge your restocking fee.

274
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,079
Speaker 3: I don't know, and they might be like hesitant when

275
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 3: you try to return them. You know, they're like, oh, okay,

276
00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 3: you know how to deal with that.

277
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: They like give you a little wink, They're like, did

278
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: you just try this on?

279
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 2: Yeah? Okay, did you yesterday? Yeah?

280
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 1: But hey, you know, I mean it's at the end

281
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 1: of the day. I don't think Apple is hurting for cash.

282
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 1: So I think you'll be okay if you if you

283
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 1: truly get them and you don't like them. I mean,

284
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 1: it's they're two hundred and fifty dollars, so return them

285
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 1: if you don't like them, go with the regular AirPods.

286
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

287
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 1: So we talk about I message all the time, and

288
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: I message is one of the primary reasons why people

289
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 1: love the iPhone. It's not the only reason, but it's

290
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: definitely one of those contributing factors. And it's funny because

291
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 1: our car wash guy here, Manny, you know, I get

292
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 1: my car washed all the time, and he texted me

293
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: this morning, hey, do you need to wash? And I

294
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: noticed it showed up blue. Yeah, and so I was like, Manny,

295
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, did you get the phone? Did you get

296
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 1: an iPhone? He's like oh, And he explained to me

297
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: that he used to have an iPhone, but then his

298
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 1: daughter would use his tablet the iPad, and all of

299
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 1: his I messages would come through. So he turned off

300
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 1: I Message and he actually got her a tablet, her

301
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: own tablet, and so now.

302
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 2: He's back to the I message.

303
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: So but it's just one of those conversations that you

304
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: would never normally have except in iPhone world, you know. Well, anyway,

305
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 1: I mentioned this because Google is saying, you know what, carriers,

306
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 1: we are sick and tired of waiting for you to

307
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: make a solution that is equivalent to I Message for Android,

308
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: and we're just going to do it ourselves. So now

309
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 1: Google is turning on what's called rcs on their Messages

310
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,719
Speaker 1: app on Android, which means all Android users are now

311
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: getting their version of I Message as of today.

312
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 2: Wow, which is huge for the Android world. So what

313
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 2: does this mean.

314
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 1: This means that you can now send and receive text

315
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 1: over Wi Fi or mobile data, which is huge. You

316
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: can send and receive high resolution photos and videos, so

317
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: no longer. When you send a video from one Android

318
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 1: to another, is it going to come up totally pixelated

319
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 1: and weird and tiny and crazy and useless. And people

320
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: can now see when you've read your messages and when

321
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 1: you've received your message again, all like I Message huge,

322
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 1: better group chats. You can name your groups, you can

323
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: add to remove people from groups, and see if people

324
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: have seen the latest messages. So this is all rolling

325
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: out starting today in the United States. If you have

326
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 1: the Messages app on your Android, which is sometimes pre installed,

327
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: but if you don't, if you have a Samsung I

328
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 1: don't think it's pre installed. So you go into the

329
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 1: Google Play and download Android Messages and yes, this is

330
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 1: a ploy to get you to use Google's messaging app,

331
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 1: but it's basically their standard SMS app. But now you

332
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 1: have RCS and if you want, you can go into

333
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 1: your settings on this app and it says enable chat.

334
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: They call it chat And it's not working on my

335
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: phone just yet, but this is a rollout, so it's

336
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 1: gonna be by the end of the year.

337
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 2: Everyone's gonna have it. They can't do everything overnight.

338
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,559
Speaker 3: I wish they chose like a fun name Chat.

339
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 1: RCS is well it's because that's a standard. So this

340
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 1: is a standard that all the carriers are supposedly adhering

341
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: to worldwide. Okay, so it's not like I Message, you know,

342
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,559
Speaker 1: they can't call it something fun like Google Message.

343
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 2: So the other thing to know.

344
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 1: About this is now it actually makes the divide between

345
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 1: iPhone and Android even bigger. Yep, because Android to Android

346
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: will be fine, iPhone to iPhone will be fine. Android

347
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 1: to iPhone is still going to be a mess because

348
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: guess what, the iPhone does not support RCS, nor will

349
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 1: it anytime soon ever in the history of mankind.

350
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 2: I don't think they ever will. So it's now full

351
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 2: on war.

352
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 1: It's a full on But anyway, if you're on Android

353
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 1: and you have Android friends, you can finally, like let's

354
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: say you're a couple and you have Android Android, finally

355
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: you get to experience life kind of the way iPhone

356
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 1: gets to your experience, and which is huge.

357
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 3: It just always makes me think of BBM and I

358
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 3: never had a BlackBerry, and I remember all my friends

359
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: could BEBM each other and I was like, I'm not

360
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 3: part of that party.

361
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 2: BBM was I message before I message came along? Totally

362
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 2: all right, Megan, what do you got okay?

363
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 3: So this next question is from Lisa, and she's very

364
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 3: unhappy with her Galaxy Note ten. She said she always

365
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 3: has problems with screen pressure when she's typing. She's had

366
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 3: to replace it twice under insurance, so she's done. She says,

367
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 3: I mostly used for word processing, accessing drive, no gaming,

368
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 3: some videos, very little actual phone calls. I don't like

369
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 3: Apple phone. So what would be the best replacement for

370
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 3: my Note eight? In your opinion? How about the Pixel

371
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 3: four or is there a phone I'm not familiar with.

372
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 3: I'm with rizin Uh.

373
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: I would recommend the Pixel four XL or she didn't

374
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: mention pictures in there at all?

375
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 2: Huh uh huh. So if she's not mentioning.

376
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 1: Photos, because Pixel four XL is great for a couple

377
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 1: of reasons. It's got fantastic software, it's a great overall phone.

378
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: It has okay battery life, it's not the best, but

379
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: it'll be fine, and it's got a lot of nice

380
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: little features, and it's kind of pure Google. So it's

381
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: just overall a very nice device. If you want some

382
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: think a little bit less expensive, I would check out

383
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: the one plus seventy.

384
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 2: But I do.

385
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 1: Believe that phone is exclusive to T Mobile in the stores,

386
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 1: but I think if you buy it online it can

387
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 1: be on mock. She said she's on Verison Eisen. Yeah,

388
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: so I think you have to go online to buy

389
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: that phone. And the advantage of the sevent is you're

390
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: still gonna get great software, You're gonna get a battery

391
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 1: that lasts very long, and the camera is just not

392
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: going to be as good as the Pixel. So if

393
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: but she's gonna save a lot of money. That phone

394
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: I think is five ninety nine versus the Pixel, which

395
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: I think is like seven ninety nine, but the Pixel

396
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 1: is gonna be discounted over Black Friday.

397
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 3: What about the Pixel three?

398
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 2: I would not recommend the Pixel three.

399
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 1: Okay, no, because it's too old at this point, Like

400
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 1: pixels don't really have a long I mean they do,

401
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 1: but they at this point, Like it's what phone does

402
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: she have? She is a Galaxy Note ten, which is

403
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 1: weird because it seems like she is giving up on

404
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: that and she that's a brand new phone, so it must.

405
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 3: Be it's confusing. She goes, I'm happy with my Galaxy

406
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 3: Note ten, and then she all so calls it her

407
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 3: Note eight later on, So.

408
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 2: Maybe it's Okay, So I think it's a No. Eight.

409
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 1: Okay, So I think those are the two phones that

410
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,439
Speaker 1: I would recommend for her. I think that she'll be

411
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: happy with either one of them. I prefer the Pixel

412
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 1: just for the pictures. But again, she didn't mention pictures

413
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: like some people when they email me, they say pictures

414
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: are most important. Yeah, she didn't say that, So that

415
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,920
Speaker 1: means she's morched in games and all the other little

416
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: things you can do.

417
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 2: On your phone.

418
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: Pictures are not necessarily, like, you know, if pictures are

419
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: your number one priority, like if I was saying, I

420
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 1: want what I want out of a phone. I want

421
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:33,360
Speaker 1: the best pictures, the best video, and the best apps

422
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:37,879
Speaker 1: and the best video of content creation possibilities. So I

423
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: think those two phones will be great, So look into

424
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,439
Speaker 1: those for sure. You know, Megan, this week was a

425
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 1: big week.

426
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 2: You are a Disney fan. Yeah, and there are a

427
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 2: lot of them out there.

428
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 3: There are so many.

429
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 2: Disney Plus you're a fan launched this week. No, I've

430
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 2: never been a Disney like fanatic.

431
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 3: Okay, no, never.

432
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,439
Speaker 1: I do appreciate what Disney does. Yeah, I've been to

433
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: the parks, I have seen the movies. Yeah, but I'm

434
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: not what you would call a I don't have one

435
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: of those like ap things in the back of my car.

436
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 2: Oh you know, I'm talking.

437
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 3: About annual pass. Yeah. Yeah, I did not want to

438
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 3: put that on my car when.

439
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 2: I have But do you have one? You have one?

440
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 2: I do feel like.

441
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 3: From like three years ago, but then they changed the

442
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 3: past to be like so much more expensive, so I stopped.

443
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 1: Okay, do they give you that when you Yeah, they do,

444
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: so that's why people have it, Okay.

445
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

446
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 1: So anyway, Disney Plus launched this week in the US, Canada,

447
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: the Netherlands, and it has about five hundred movies, seventy

448
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 1: five hundred episodes of TV shows from Disney, Pixar, Marvel,

449
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 1: Star Wars, National Geographic, and more. It's got some new stuff,

450
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:42,880
Speaker 1: but mostly the old catalog, and they're gonna they're gonna

451
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 1: slowly but surely bring in a lot more new stuff.

452
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 1: You can watch all of the Simpsons. There is For

453
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: the first time, Star Wars first seven Star Wars movies

454
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,640
Speaker 1: are available in four K Ultra HD for the first

455
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 1: time that they're all available in this format.

456
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 2: That's kind of cool. Who framed Roger Rabbit? Toy?

457
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 1: Story one, two and three are also available in four KHD,

458
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 1: so it works on pretty much every device. But I've

459
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 1: been getting a lot of emails about this because there

460
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:10,199
Speaker 1: are some exceptions.

461
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 2: The notable one is Visio.

462
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,919
Speaker 1: There is no Visio, there's no Disney Plus app for

463
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,880
Speaker 1: Visio TVs. And also people said, oh, well, no big deal,

464
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 1: I'll just chrome cast it to my TV because Visio

465
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,959
Speaker 1: TVs have chrome casts built in. It didn't work, and

466
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 1: the reason why is because the version of chrome cast

467
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,360
Speaker 1: that video is using is not high enough to authenticate

468
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:35,679
Speaker 1: for what Disney wants. Oh so that's kind of a bummer.

469
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 1: So there is a workaround. You can use airplay, but

470
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 1: you have to have an iPhone or an iPad to

471
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 1: do that. So if you had an Android Plus video

472
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 1: and you wanted a chrome cast to your TV, wouldn't work.

473
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 3: About a fire TV stick, Well.

474
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,160
Speaker 1: Okay, so but that's different. That's not built into your TV.

475
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 1: When people buy a smart TV, they get used to

476
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 1: kind of using the apps on screen. And this is

477
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 1: why I never recommend using the smart of your smart

478
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,360
Speaker 1: TV now unless you're on a major platform like Roku,

479
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: right tcls and you're safe most of the time. Sometimes

480
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 1: there are some distinctions but most of the time you're okay.

481
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 1: But this is why generally I recommend a third party

482
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: device like an Apple TV or a Fire TV stick

483
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 1: because or a Roku player, because that way you always

484
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: get the latest and greatest no matter what happens. So

485
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 1: sometimes these TVs are not as updated as the separate

486
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 1: streaming devices. So anyway, the other thing to know about

487
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,360
Speaker 1: Disney Plus is you can get it for free if

488
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: you have a Verizon Unlimited plan. A lot of people

489
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 1: have been emailing me about that.

490
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 2: It's pretty simple.

491
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 1: You just go into the Verizon app, you look under

492
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 1: your entertainment under add ons, and you add it. And

493
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 1: the trick there, it's not like Verizon's just being kind

494
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 1: to you and giving this. They are, but the trick

495
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 1: is that once you're set up there, next year when

496
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,919
Speaker 1: it renews, it will be on your Verizon bill and

497
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: so that's kind of like and Verizon gets recurring subscription.

498
00:20:58,160 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 2: They get a cut of that.

499
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: So the more people that they can get on their

500
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: plan that also say, oh, I'm not going to cancel

501
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 1: Verizon because look at they give me. I get free

502
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: Apple Music, I get free Disney so I'm not going

503
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 1: to cancel. But after the next year when that starts

504
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 1: to kick in that six ninety nine, Verizon gets a

505
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: tiny portion.

506
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 3: And then Apple Music is that.

507
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 2: That's unlimited forever forever. Yeah.

508
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,160
Speaker 3: Wow, Verizon really has a bunch.

509
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: Of Like well, AT and T does something similar, so

510
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 1: does TEA Mobile. Team Mobile gives you Netflix. At and

511
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 1: T has Spotify for free. Depends on your plan. It

512
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,679
Speaker 1: all depends on your plan. Yeah, it's obviously on the

513
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 1: higher end plans as well. But anyway, my kids have

514
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 1: been is Disney plus for you. My kids have been

515
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: watching They watched Aladdin the first two nights. I feel

516
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 1: like for six ninety nine a month, it really pays

517
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:44,879
Speaker 1: for itself. You rent one movie a month on Apple

518
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 1: TV and that's five ninety nine. So yeah, six ninety nine,

519
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 1: you're getting the whole back catalog as long as there's

520
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: enough to keep you interested.

521
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 2: And I think Disney will.

522
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,920
Speaker 1: I'm worried because they put that whole catalog out there,

523
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,119
Speaker 1: like at the beginning. Oh so it's kind of like

524
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,360
Speaker 1: you get you get kind of like spoiled totally.

525
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 3: But I'm excited. I feel like your kids now can

526
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 3: watch like the really classic TV shows of like the

527
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,679
Speaker 3: two thousands that aren't on Disney Channel anymore, like stuff

528
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 3: like that's a raven, like that was what I grew

529
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 3: up with, and now like if you don't really I

530
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 3: sometimes I've seen Disney Channel now and I'm like, the

531
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 3: shows are just now very advanced. Yeah, so it's cool that,

532
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:23,959
Speaker 3: you know. I mean, I don't, I don't even know.

533
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,479
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just it's just different. It's just different.

534
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,200
Speaker 3: But it's it's cool. There's a lot out there, and yeah,

535
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,160
Speaker 3: I mean you can kind of get spoiled.

536
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 1: With it, but I think for families it's gonna be

537
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 1: for six ninety nine a month.

538
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:36,199
Speaker 2: It's it's such a no brainer.

539
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 1: I think for adults who are into Star Wars that

540
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 1: signed up for Mandalorian and then when that's over, they

541
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,159
Speaker 1: may find that they're kind of over it because you know,

542
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 1: there's only so much there for adults.

543
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 3: But I'm assuming they're going to keep cranking out new series,

544
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 3: but it's not really like centered towards you know, an

545
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 3: adult crowd.

546
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 1: Well, I think they're trying to do that with the

547
00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: Mandalorian and the Star Wars and the Marvel.

548
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 3: Stuff and the National Geography.

549
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:02,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, which yawner.

550
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 3: For me, it's my favorite Channel next.

551
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,479
Speaker 1: I'm sure people love that stuff, so I, you know, yeah,

552
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,880
Speaker 1: but yeah, we'll see and people some people might wonder

553
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 1: if you have cable and you've got Disney Now, which

554
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: is their companion app for a cable subscription, you can

555
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,480
Speaker 1: sign in and using your you know, streaming or cable

556
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:22,879
Speaker 1: log in. I did look, and it seems like a

557
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 1: lot of the shows like Vamporina and Puppy Dog Pals

558
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 1: and all these little shows that are currently on TV,

559
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 1: seems like the new episodes are going to the Disney

560
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: Now app and then kind of like last season and

561
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 1: before are going to Disney Plus.

562
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 3: Got it? So it depends how much you Wantflix exactly.

563
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,719
Speaker 2: Will your kids notice? Who knows? So?

564
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 1: But the reality is how many of these subscriptions can

565
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: you sustain? I know that I'm going to cancel my

566
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 1: EIGHTE and T TV now, which is now going up

567
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 1: to sixty dollars a month.

568
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,360
Speaker 2: It started out as thirty five when I first subscribe.

569
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: Now it's up to sixty and you know, I just

570
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,440
Speaker 1: don't use it, and so that's going away.

571
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 3: So what will you have?

572
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 2: Then? You'll all have Netflix?

573
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:06,160
Speaker 1: Okay, Time Now, which is or prime video from Amazon

574
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,439
Speaker 1: Netflix I'll have Disney Plus. And I am still subscriber

575
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,959
Speaker 1: to YouTube Premium, which is twelve ninety nine a month, huh,

576
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 1: which also gives me YouTube music, but I may drop

577
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 1: that as well. I just hate seeing ads on YouTube,

578
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 1: so I don't know if that's worth twelve ninety nine

579
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,159
Speaker 1: a month though or not, because I don't watch that

580
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 1: much YouTube.

581
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 3: I just always when I get those ads, I always click,

582
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 3: like the like if it's like an age ad, I

583
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 3: just always click it and then it's done. Oh you

584
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:29,359
Speaker 3: do yeah, Like I just want to.

585
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I feel like they're collecting so much data

586
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:33,439
Speaker 2: on you. You know what, I make it up? Oh,

587
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 2: if you make it up, yeah, then.

588
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 3: That's yeah, between sixteen and seventy five, like whatever, Okay, okay.

589
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 3: This next question comes from Gina. How do you upload

590
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 3: Android contacts to a computer for editing?

591
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 2: Uh?

592
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: It's funny how many people ask about contacts. And my

593
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,199
Speaker 1: recommendation is always to keep your contacts in the cloud,

594
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:02,360
Speaker 1: whether that's iCloud or you know, Google Cloud. But I've

595
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 1: gotten a lot of people when they switch phones, they

596
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: realize their contacts are stored on the phone itself, and

597
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: the main thing you want to do is go into

598
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 1: your contacts on any platform, whether it's Android or iOS,

599
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,440
Speaker 1: and make sure that your contacts are being saved, either

600
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:20,200
Speaker 1: iCloud or Google. That's what I recommend. And to find

601
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,199
Speaker 1: your contacts that she uploaded on an Android phone, generally

602
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 1: those go right into Google. So just go to contacts

603
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 1: dot Google dot com from a desktop computer and you

604
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,879
Speaker 1: should see all of your contacts right there. If you don't,

605
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,439
Speaker 1: they may be stored. If she has a Samsung, did

606
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:36,160
Speaker 1: she say what kind of phone?

607
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 3: She just said she is an Android.

608
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,160
Speaker 1: Okay, she might have a Samsung, and in some cases

609
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: they are stored in kind of your Samsung account, so

610
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 1: you can also sign in there and see if they're

611
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,919
Speaker 1: in there. But either way, I would say on like

612
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 1: a majority of the Android phones, they're generally stored in

613
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 1: some sort of cloud storage. You just need to figure

614
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,199
Speaker 1: out which cloud storage they're in.

615
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 2: Cool and Apple.

616
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 1: This week in used the elusive sixteen inch MacBook Pro.

617
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,640
Speaker 1: This computer has been rumored and speculated for so long.

618
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 1: I'm glad they finally got it out there, and it's

619
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 1: the computer that I want.

620
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 3: I know you were going to get it.

621
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:14,199
Speaker 2: I was going to get it.

622
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: I think I didn't remember I was going to get

623
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,480
Speaker 1: a new computer a while back. Yeah, and I was

624
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 1: just going to settle for the fifteen.

625
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,440
Speaker 3: Now you have a Christmas present from yourself.

626
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: It's going to be tough because I just spent all

627
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 1: this money on the iPhone, so I don't think I'm

628
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: in a position right now to purchase this, but.

629
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 2: You never know, maybe, I mean, okay, ever know.

630
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: The spoiler alert is that it starts at twenty four

631
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,400
Speaker 1: hundred dollars, and of course I want to get more

632
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 1: hard drive or more SSD whatever you call them at

633
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 1: this point, and that's going to make it even more

634
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,879
Speaker 1: expensive because I want at least a terrorbyte.

635
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 2: This can go up to eight terabytes of storage the

636
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 2: first time or sorry, I think it's six terribytes. Eight terabytes. Yeah,

637
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 2: eight terabytes of storage. Wow, that is unheard of for

638
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 2: a laptop.

639
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,640
Speaker 3: I guess if you're making like movies.

640
00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:58,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, you need that.

641
00:26:58,400 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 3: You need it.

642
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:00,120
Speaker 2: And that's exactly who this is.

643
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 1: Apple says it's for developers, photographers, filmmakers, scientists, music producers,

644
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 1: and anyone who relies on a Mac to create their

645
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: life's best work.

646
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,719
Speaker 2: AKA. What I would say is this the creator's device.

647
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 1: This is not the device if you're flying to Omaha

648
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 1: and watching Netflix, that's not what this is for.

649
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 2: No, No, this is not for checking email iPad. This

650
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,640
Speaker 2: is for creating content, and that's really who this is for. Now.

651
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 1: The main thing that they've changed on this is the keyboard.

652
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 1: Everyone complained about the keyboard, including myself. My MacBook keyboard

653
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:36,120
Speaker 1: MacBook Pro is just terrible. It's there literally.

654
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 2: When I'm doing my emails. It's so bad that I

655
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,919
Speaker 2: make more mistakes typing than I do.

656
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 3: Love my MacBook Error keyboard oh so much better. When

657
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,920
Speaker 3: I use it, I'm like, oh, this is your keyboard.

658
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:48,920
Speaker 1: Is a little bit better because you have a newer

659
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 1: MacBook Pro. But mine is the one where they didn't

660
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 1: improve anything. It's like the first generation of this mechanism

661
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,679
Speaker 1: and it was terrible. So now they say it's totally redesigned.

662
00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,879
Speaker 1: It's got more travel, which travel means how far the

663
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 1: keypresses down. Yeah, and old keyboard now had a ton

664
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 1: of travel that travel.

665
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

666
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 1: And it's got better speaker system, it's got touch bar,

667
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 1: touch ID and the track pad. It also has longer

668
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 1: battery life and you can really spec this thing out

669
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: with oh my gosh, eight terabytes of storage, sixty four

670
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 1: gigs of memory. I mean, you can really make this

671
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: thing awesome.

672
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 2: Yeah.

673
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 1: It also says that the keyboard is quieter, which was

674
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 1: a huge deal because when I'm in meetings and stuff,

675
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: my keyboard is so loud it's almost borderline.

676
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:34,680
Speaker 3: Like sound aggressive when you're typing early, I'm just typing.

677
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 1: Starts at twenty three ninety nine. You can spec it

678
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: all the way up to I think six thousand dollars. Wow,

679
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 1: you might want to get the Apple Care on that

680
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 1: one if you do that. Now, that's the good of

681
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 1: this computer. Here's the bad. It still has a boring,

682
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 1: terrible webcam seven to twenty people.

683
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 3: I mean, come on, yeah, can.

684
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 2: You believe that?

685
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 1: So the iPhone webcam or front facing camera is now

686
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: four K this thing has.

687
00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 2: You're spending all this money, you get a terrible webcam.

688
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 3: It doesn't make any sense to me.

689
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 1: And it also has last year's WiFi, so it doesn't

690
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,719
Speaker 1: have the new Wi Fi six. It still has the

691
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 1: old style Wi Fi, which.

692
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 2: You know, it's like those aren't deal breakers, but it's

693
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 2: just like, come on, Apple.

694
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay. The next question is from Jason. I have

695
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 3: Microsoft one Drive and I had some storage that expired.

696
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 3: Is there a way to add storage without paying a

697
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 3: monthly subscription for it?

698
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

699
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 1: I mean this is I mean, I think it used

700
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,240
Speaker 1: to be back in the day when you got all

701
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 1: these cloud services, like it was Dropbox and one drive,

702
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,600
Speaker 1: they were giving you storage like it was yeah, not.

703
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 2: All that, not forever.

704
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 3: Oh so they three years they would give.

705
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 1: You storage, and then I think they slowly but surely

706
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,640
Speaker 1: pulled it back and it used to be one drive.

707
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 1: I believe when it first came out, you got a

708
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: terabyte of storage.

709
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 3: That's a lot.

710
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that was the case.

711
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to mine and see what I have,

712
00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: because I was an early sign up for this thing,

713
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 1: and I remember it was like one of these things

714
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 1: where you just got a ton of storage.

715
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 2: So I now have five gigs.

716
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure at one point in my life with

717
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 1: one Drive, I had a terabyte.

718
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 2: But that's gone.

719
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 1: Same thing with Dropbox back in the day, used to

720
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: get I think it was a lot, and used to

721
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 1: be able to earn by referring friends, and of course

722
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:22,120
Speaker 1: that's all been pulled back now, so now basically they

723
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 1: all wanted to get you in there because the more

724
00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 1: stuff that you dump into these online drives.

725
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, then you're stuck.

726
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 1: You become attached to it, and then of course the

727
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 1: storage goes like okay, well your promotional one terabyte has

728
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 1: run out.

729
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 2: Now you got to pay us that.

730
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 3: It's like forty dollars.

731
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so for Google Drive, I paid ten bucks

732
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 1: a month for a terabyte, which or maybe I've get

733
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 1: two terabytes at this point, I can't remember. But it's

734
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 1: it's enough where it's like, okay, it's kind of annoying,

735
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,239
Speaker 1: but it's also what are you gonna do?

736
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:49,720
Speaker 2: You know?

737
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean a hard drive is really cheap compared

738
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 1: to that. Oh, I have a lot of pictures in

739
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 1: one drive.

740
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 3: But a hard drive you can lose.

741
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 1: Hard drive you can lose. I mean, theoretically you could

742
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 1: lose cloud, but chances are.

743
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 3: That's on them though, right, and then it's gone. Then

744
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 3: it's really gone. Do you back up to the cloud

745
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 3: and to a hard drive?

746
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 1: I actually right now know because I don't have my

747
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 1: NASS set up, so I need to do that. It's

748
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 1: I have a little bit of sprinkling that's a network

749
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 1: attached storage. It's basically a hard drive in my house.

750
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 1: That's a mini server. But ever since I moved my

751
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: office around, I disconnected it and it's all it's all

752
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 1: complicated because it's I just need to clean up everything,

753
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 1: like it's just got like fragments of stuff and like

754
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: I need I need a text.

755
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 3: And when you eventually get a new.

756
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 1: Computer, yeah, that's when I'm gonna do it, which I know,

757
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 1: it's really it's one of those things that like you

758
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 1: just put on the back burner every weekend.

759
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:43,800
Speaker 3: You do it for like your half birthday.

760
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 2: Yeah much, I'm celebrating my half birthday.

761
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, like you're you know, well i'd say Christmas, but no,

762
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 3: that's coming up soon.

763
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: So cool new feature in Google Maps that helps you

764
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,479
Speaker 1: speak where you need to go to someone that is

765
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 1: in a foreign language. So let's say you're in Japan

766
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: and you want to go to a restaurant. Well, have

767
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 1: you ever seen the names of some of these restaurants

768
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 1: and some of the streets in Japan? How would you

769
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: say that to someone?

770
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 2: And I've been on the corner where I say to

771
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 2: the person like, oh, this is where I want to go,

772
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 2: and I point and they look at me like I

773
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 2: don't know, Like you know, I don't know. They just

774
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 2: look at me like I'm crazy, right, I'm like, you

775
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 2: can't read what's on my street? Right here?

776
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 3: Help me out.

777
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 2: So here's the new feature.

778
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,480
Speaker 1: Google Maps is kind of merging, not merging, but they're

779
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 1: they're mixing in a little bit of Google Translate. So

780
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 1: now your phone will speak out a place's name and

781
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 1: address in the local language.

782
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 2: All you have to do is tap the new speaker button,

783
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 2: which will show up next to the name of a

784
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 2: place or address, and Google Maps will say it out loud.

785
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 2: So I can go up to you. If you're in

786
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 2: Japan and you spoke or let's say.

787
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 1: France and you spoke French, not English and not English,

788
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 1: and I would go up to you, even though I

789
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: speak English. I would hold my phone up and I

790
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 1: would press a little speaker button next to the restaurant

791
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,479
Speaker 1: I want to go to in France and I'd be

792
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 1: like and it would be like Parley Voo franceis yeah, yeah,

793
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 1: is the restaurant and it's on the.

794
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 2: You know, the Peach Street and Peach and you'd.

795
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: Be like, oh, yeah, that's right, and you'd speak to

796
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: me yeah, and I'd be like, wait, I don't understand

797
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 1: what you're saying.

798
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 2: So, how does that? But you would basically point me

799
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:14,640
Speaker 2: in the right druck?

800
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:14,960
Speaker 3: Got it?

801
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 2: Okay?

802
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:16,479
Speaker 3: That's really funny.

803
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 1: So the speech to text technology automatically detects what language

804
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 1: your phone is using. So for instance, if you're in

805
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 1: if your phone is set to English, but you're in Tokyo,

806
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 1: it knows like, hey, let's read.

807
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 2: This out in Japanese. Okay, because it's doing that.

808
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 1: So anyway, it's rolling out this month on Android and

809
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 1: iOS in Google Maps, and it will have support for

810
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:36,480
Speaker 1: fifty languages.

811
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 2: So I think it's a cool little feature. I think

812
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:38,959
Speaker 2: it's right.

813
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 3: It is funny though. I went to a wedding once

814
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 3: in France and it was like French people and then

815
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 3: a bunch of American people. It was like split in

816
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 3: two and the American people. I mean, I was with

817
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 3: my aunt, so she was French, so I was good.

818
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 3: But all of these American people who were walking around

819
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 3: the wedding with their translator things, and all the French

820
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,240
Speaker 3: people were saying to each other like in French, like

821
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 3: oh the American like kind of making fun of it,

822
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 3: but you know, hey, like if it helps you like communicate,

823
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 3: do it if you don't know French, like it'll save you.

824
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 2: Or if you don't know French, you know nothing.

825
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know nothing. I don't know French, so I

826
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 3: shouldn't be talking. Okay. So this next question comes from Karen.

827
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 3: My triplet grandkids are gamers, and Grandpa thinks VR is

828
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 3: the next step for them. Will this be okay? And

829
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 3: if so, which one do you suggest for them? One

830
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:33,799
Speaker 3: of our grandkids has autism. Are there any problems there

831
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:38,759
Speaker 3: with VR? Have your She also said she has your books, uh,

832
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 3: which she's not gonna buy anything without checking your so

833
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,919
Speaker 3: she wants your opinion obviously before they buy.

834
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,399
Speaker 2: Did she say how old the grandkids are? No?

835
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,759
Speaker 1: Okay, so ten year old? Okay, because that's that's what

836
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,279
Speaker 1: I thought was interesting about this. Yeah, the VR thing, Like,

837
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 1: my kid begs me every day to do VR. He's

838
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:00,880
Speaker 1: eight and from everything I've seen, and you should not

839
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 1: do VR unless you're thirteen and up.

840
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:03,920
Speaker 3: Okay.

841
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: So I don't recommend all these parents that email me

842
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 1: about VR. I always say, don't do it. So when

843
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 1: you're under a certain age, your brain is still forming,

844
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 1: things are still happening, and I just there's a reason

845
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 1: why these big companies don't recommend VR for kids under thirteen.

846
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:24,319
Speaker 1: I'm not sure what that exact reason is, but I'm

847
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 1: gonna kind of stand by that. And I don't know

848
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 1: if kids necessarily need to be in VR at that

849
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 1: young age. And you know, I know that kids want

850
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 1: to do it, and of course it is the cool

851
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 1: thing and it's very awesome, and you can go to

852
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 1: places like these VR setups in the mall and stuff,

853
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:40,280
Speaker 1: and they will allow younger.

854
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 2: Kids to do it, and it's at the end of

855
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 2: the day, it's your choice, like Dreamscape, I believe, so

856
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:46,799
Speaker 2: I think you can be ten and.

857
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 3: Up for that oh weird that you do have to do.

858
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,000
Speaker 1: I think there's a certain age. I don't quote me

859
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,479
Speaker 1: on that, but there are I believe there are certain

860
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 1: ages for these things.

861
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:56,000
Speaker 2: And I'm not sure if there's.

862
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 1: Any physical proof or whatever or like research that they've

863
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:00,719
Speaker 1: done that says like this is the but I think

864
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 1: it probably has to do something with the eyes.

865
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 2: And the brain.

866
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:05,360
Speaker 3: I don't know, I've never heard this.

867
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:09,920
Speaker 1: But that's generally my consensus is everything I've seen is thirteen,

868
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,080
Speaker 1: So just wait till they're thirteen. And these kids have

869
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 1: enough screens in front of their face, so do they

870
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,760
Speaker 1: really need one that's right like at the eye level,

871
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 1: like burning into their retina's like probably not so just well,

872
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:23,759
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, screen's right.

873
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 3: There, it's right there.

874
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 2: It's good, it's kind of so that's that's my recommendation.

875
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:31,400
Speaker 1: And all these cheap little VR things that you see, yeah,

876
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,360
Speaker 1: these VR things that you see at the mall that

877
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,240
Speaker 1: you put your iPhone in stuff, there's no good iPhone.

878
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 2: VR by the way, so just don't just don't bother.

879
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 3: It's a waste when you sick your phone inside of.

880
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,279
Speaker 1: And even on Android they have that, and even on

881
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:48,840
Speaker 1: Android they've gotten out of that because Apple are sorry,

882
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 1: Google and Samsung used to make a big deal out

883
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 1: of their VR headsets when they launched their phones. Last

884
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,239
Speaker 1: two launches, they didn't say a word. So clearly it's

885
00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 1: not right now. It's not a growth place. I think

886
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 1: I do believe in VR. I think it's amazing and

887
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:04,160
Speaker 1: I think it's going to change the fabric of our

888
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 1: world once again, like Facebook did and like Internet did.

889
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 2: But it's just not there right now.

890
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 3: It's not the time.

891
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,239
Speaker 1: But I think that companies like Oculus and stuff, they're

892
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 1: trying to make it better.

893
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 2: What did I do. I did that hollow.

894
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: I mean it's still almost like made me sick to

895
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 1: my stomach for hours. Yeah, and so I just it's

896
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 1: getting there.

897
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 2: It's not there.

898
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I do go out there and try it

899
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:30,239
Speaker 1: because it's awesome, but it's like Dreamscape is the best

900
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 1: that I've seen.

901
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:32,759
Speaker 2: There's one called The Void, which I haven't tried.

902
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 1: And there's another one they're trying to get me to

903
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 1: try it at the mall and I haven't tried that

904
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 1: one either. You know, you have to go with like

905
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: a bunch of people and like it takes like some

906
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:40,319
Speaker 1: time to set it.

907
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 2: You can go by yourself, but it's kind of more

908
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 2: fun to go with a little group. Yeah. All right.

909
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,359
Speaker 1: Let me tell you about something that is really cool

910
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 1: because I talked about this on the Leo Laporte radio show,

911
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 1: but I just want to talk about it here too

912
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,479
Speaker 1: because I am just obsessed with this. It's an app

913
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:58,239
Speaker 1: called libby l ibb Y, and I thought this was

914
00:37:58,280 --> 00:37:59,880
Speaker 1: too good to be true. I saw an article in

915
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,520
Speaker 1: nine to five Mac and the writer was talking about

916
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:07,320
Speaker 1: how Apple Books needs integration with the US Public Library

917
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 1: just like the Kindle has, and I'm like, wait, what

918
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 1: so I download this app called Libby, and I was like,

919
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:14,480
Speaker 1: I don't have a library card, so I gotta go

920
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:15,960
Speaker 1: sign up and I gotta get one. Maybe I'll just

921
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 1: use my kid's library card. Well, it turns out you

922
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:19,880
Speaker 1: can just pop in your phone number and somehow it

923
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 1: signed me up for the LA Public Library. And it

924
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 1: seems like they have these deals with public libraries all

925
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,839
Speaker 1: across the US, So wherever you're listening, you can try

926
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 1: this out. Download the app, you get a library card

927
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: through the app, and next thing you know, you can

928
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 1: search for books like you would have the library. But

929
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 1: the brilliant part is that not only can you read

930
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 1: these books on the app or listen to their audiobook

931
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: on the app, you can send the book to your Kindle.

932
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:45,760
Speaker 3: That's so cool.

933
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 2: Which do you have a Kindle? No? Well, have you

934
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:48,759
Speaker 2: ever used one?

935
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 3: You gave me a one, but I gave it to

936
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:52,920
Speaker 3: my dad. You never have used it, but I can

937
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 3: try to use.

938
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 2: It on You should try linking it up.

939
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 1: I sho We're going to do a story on this

940
00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 1: for Ktle because I was telling my wife last night.

941
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,919
Speaker 1: I was telling her she came over to watch the kids. Yeah,

942
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: and she's an avid reader. And I was like, do

943
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 1: you know you can get like books for free from

944
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 1: the library. She's like I know, of course I know that.

945
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 1: I'm like no, no, for like free to your kindle.

946
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 2: Yeah.

947
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 3: I was telling my mom about it too, and I

948
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 3: was like.

949
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:13,960
Speaker 2: Her reaction, she was like, wait, that's so cool.

950
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,319
Speaker 3: You have to set it up on my phone and

951
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 3: I'm like, and.

952
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, it's one click once you set up.

953
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,840
Speaker 1: And by the way, this Libby app Usually when you

954
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 1: think of apps like this, you're like, they're clunky, they're terrible.

955
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: The way this app is set up, it's a really

956
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,759
Speaker 1: cool app. You search in like good terms, it like

957
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,360
Speaker 1: kind of talks to you almost in chat style anyway.

958
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,959
Speaker 1: So the main downside of this is that you don't

959
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,359
Speaker 1: get the book immediately, especially if it's a popular book.

960
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 1: You have to wait, just like you would at the

961
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 1: public library for it to be in stock. So even

962
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:43,720
Speaker 1: though it's digital, they don't just give out unlimited copies.

963
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:44,319
Speaker 2: So with the.

964
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,399
Speaker 3: Public library, you have to keep going back.

965
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,880
Speaker 1: No, I think nowadays nowadays you just put yourself on

966
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:51,880
Speaker 1: a wait list and they email you when it's ready.

967
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 1: So it's the same thing here, except you'll get an

968
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: alert on your phone. So I've put a bunch of

969
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 1: books on my wait list. So I guess the trick

970
00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,800
Speaker 1: here is that you just have to build your catalog

971
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:02,319
Speaker 1: up of what you want to read, and as they

972
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 1: come available, get them, put them to your kindle. You

973
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 1: get them for twenty one days like a normal library loan,

974
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:09,279
Speaker 1: and then I'm assuming there's some way to renew for

975
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:12,239
Speaker 1: a certain amount of time. Okay, So again, I just

976
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 1: bought a lot of books this month for you know,

977
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 1: twenty five dollars that both books are available on there.

978
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:20,239
Speaker 1: One was available instantly and I could have saved twelve

979
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 1: ninety nine. The other one is a little bit longer.

980
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,320
Speaker 1: It's called The Body, which, by the way, fantastic book.

981
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 2: Oh, I need to read it. If you I.

982
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:29,239
Speaker 3: Actually available, it's probably.

983
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 1: It's not available. It's it's probably one of the most

984
00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 1: popular books right now. But I was reading my kids

985
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 1: and my wife all the highlights because it goes through

986
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,640
Speaker 1: every body part and explains the like how it works

987
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,400
Speaker 1: and what all this stuff and the history of it,

988
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 1: not the history of the part, but like how doctors

989
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,799
Speaker 1: discovered how things work in the body, And so I

990
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:45,719
Speaker 1: was reading all the highlights that I've made in this

991
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,319
Speaker 1: book to my kids and my wife and we were

992
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,600
Speaker 1: all just like loving it, so like there's it's just

993
00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:54,759
Speaker 1: such a good book. So anyway, Libby, l Ibby, check

994
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:56,560
Speaker 1: it out, especially if you have a kindle. Link them

995
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 1: up and you can thank me later when you're reading

996
00:40:59,160 --> 00:40:59,839
Speaker 1: your first book.

997
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm literally trying to find a book that's available.

998
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 2: Okay, do we have time for one more quick question? Megan?

999
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,759
Speaker 3: Okay, so this is from Zereda.

1000
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:10,880
Speaker 2: Oh no more time we right now? Kidding? All right,

1001
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:11,399
Speaker 2: quick question.

1002
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 3: So, basically, she's looking for a digital frame where she

1003
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:18,319
Speaker 3: can send pictures directly to the frame without using a

1004
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:22,080
Speaker 3: flash drive. I thought you mentioned one on your show,

1005
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:24,439
Speaker 3: but I cannot find this story. I have seen one

1006
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 3: on my feed called Skylight. Not sure if it's the same,

1007
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 3: Please let me know.

1008
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 2: On her feed.

1009
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:32,799
Speaker 1: So she clearly was searching for things, and then all

1010
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:37,520
Speaker 1: of a sudden, Facebook is like we got someone. She's

1011
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:42,400
Speaker 1: looking at picture frames. So I don't know anything about Skylight.

1012
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 1: I've never heard of it, but I and this one.

1013
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 2: I'm looking it up right now.

1014
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 1: It's one that it's a touchscreen photos frame that you

1015
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 1: can update by email from anywhere and it looks fine,

1016
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,719
Speaker 1: but I think that the one you want is from

1017
00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 1: the company I last tried. It's called nicks Play, and

1018
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:01,760
Speaker 1: it used to be there are so many of these frames,

1019
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 1: but now it's kind of like they're a dying breed.

1020
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 2: The thing I like the best.

1021
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,440
Speaker 1: If you this, this is a specific ask for something

1022
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 1: that is USB right. She wants a flash drive, but

1023
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 1: the one that I recommend is just get a Google Home.

1024
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 3: No, she said, without using a flash drive. She wants

1025
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:20,680
Speaker 3: to send pictures directly to the frame, without using a

1026
00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 3: flash drive, so from like a phone.

1027
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,880
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, oh gosh, I totally misread this. I

1028
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 1: thought she wanted a flash drive so she can pop

1029
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:30,200
Speaker 1: it in the back of the frame and bypass the cloud.

1030
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 1: So if she just wants a frame, the best one

1031
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 1: out there is from Google. It's called the Google Home.

1032
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 3: Oh there you go.

1033
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: Now now it's called the Google Nest Google Nest Hub.

1034
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:44,920
Speaker 2: So that's what I have.

1035
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,279
Speaker 3: I actually don't show pictures on it.

1036
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:48,680
Speaker 2: Wait do you yeah?

1037
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:50,840
Speaker 3: I got it from cs Oh.

1038
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 2: You don't show your pictures on it?

1039
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:56,440
Speaker 3: No, it's also this small like the streams. Okay, I'm

1040
00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:57,839
Speaker 3: gonna oh my god, you have to set up your

1041
00:42:57,840 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 3: pictures on it.

1042
00:42:59,520 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 2: It's the best.

1043
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 1: My sister just got one and she loves it. And

1044
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 1: she actually got the Max, which means we can video chats.

1045
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 1: I actually meant to do that last night with her anyway.

1046
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,399
Speaker 1: So get the Google nest Hub. The best part about

1047
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 1: it it's one twenty nine. It's going to be cheaper

1048
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:16,680
Speaker 1: over Black Friday, So just wait until Black Friday to

1049
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:19,879
Speaker 1: purchase this. It'll be on sale everywhere. It's one hundred

1050
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,399
Speaker 1: and twenty nine dollars. I expected to be ninety nine

1051
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: bucks for the holidays. Wow, ninety nine dollars. You download

1052
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,200
Speaker 1: the Google Photos app on your phone and the best

1053
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:31,200
Speaker 1: part is that you can select the photos you want,

1054
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,800
Speaker 1: or you can have Google Photos curate the best pictures

1055
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 1: that you take and put them on the frame automatically.

1056
00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 2: It's so great. It's my favorite feature.

1057
00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:40,880
Speaker 1: When it was my kid's birthday and we had a

1058
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,760
Speaker 1: birthday party, I just made a automatic album of Tanner.

1059
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:47,240
Speaker 1: So every picture that showed up on all the screens

1060
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 1: throughout my house were all of my kid through the

1061
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 1: ages and so, and it was super simple to set

1062
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 1: up and Google picks the best.

1063
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,319
Speaker 2: They try to pick the best pictures that people are

1064
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:57,720
Speaker 2: smiling in they're well lit.

1065
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 1: Not always perfect, but yeah, you can easily try and

1066
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 1: it's great.

1067
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,600
Speaker 3: I'm trying to find the name of the Body book the.

1068
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:08,200
Speaker 2: Body it's called. I think it's called the Body.

1069
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,680
Speaker 3: Let me say, okay, I'm just curious.

1070
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:13,040
Speaker 1: Let's see kindle. I'll go to my kindle and see

1071
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:14,839
Speaker 1: what it's called. I think it's just called Body by

1072
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 1: the Body by Body Bill Bryson, cover by Bill Bryson.

1073
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 1: And it's a best selling author of the short history

1074
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 1: of nearly everything.

1075
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:26,320
Speaker 2: It's so great.

1076
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,759
Speaker 1: The Body a guide for occupants if you're into like

1077
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:31,920
Speaker 1: you have to be a little bit into science and

1078
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:33,360
Speaker 1: like kind of like doctor stuff.

1079
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 2: Like it's just fascinating to hear nine weeks nine weeks

1080
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:37,839
Speaker 2: to get it.

1081
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:41,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, but also can I put in different libraries? Are

1082
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:42,839
Speaker 3: you not supposed to do that? Well?

1083
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:46,520
Speaker 1: I think it's all LAPD or LA Public Library. Oh,

1084
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:49,439
Speaker 1: since it's digital, it's not like your local branch. Got

1085
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:51,400
Speaker 1: it all right, that's going to do it for the

Speaker 1: show today. Thanks so much for listening. My book is
