20
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: some of the lessons learned from that CrowdStrike incident. Now

21
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: that things have had a little chance to settle down.

22

Speaker 1: Ne'rov Gandhia, founder of House of Tech, will give his

23

Speaker 1: and their ring and friend of the show, Jefferson Graham

25
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 1: of Photo Walks TV, is going to discuss the latest

26
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: third party apps for upgrading your smartphone photo and video capture.

27
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: Looking forward to that, well, it is the start of

28
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: the Olympics. I was recently in Paris, and every time

29
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: I go on an overseas trip, I learn a thing

30
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 1: or two. So I thought i'd share some of the

31
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: ways that I prepared my phone for the overseas trip,

32
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: because I get a lot of questions about this. There

33
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: is a lot of confusion about how cell phones and

34
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 1: smartphones and all of these things work in other countries,

35
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: and I think I have some answers for you. So

36
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: I'm going to give you my thoughts on all of

37
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: this stuff, what works, what doesn't, what you should be downloading,

38
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: and how you should prep your phone before you leave

39
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: your house so you can stay connected and avoid those

40
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: roaming charges. So Number one, download a flight alert app.

41
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: Now you've heard me talk about this one before. It's

42
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 1: called Flighty. If you're on the iPhone, that is the

43
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: absolute best app. FLI ghty Flighty. Now that app is

44
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: incredible it will give you up to the minute alerts

45
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 1: on anything with your flight. It is not only a

46
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: great source of information, it is so beautifully designed you

47
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: will just want to sit there and play around with

48
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: the app because it's just so beautiful, really really well done.

49
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: Now it is a sort of a freemium model, so

50
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: you can get you know, I think your first flight

51
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: is free to track, and you can always track your flights.

52
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: It just depends if you pay what type of updates

53
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: you can get, like how much information you can get

54
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: beyond just the basics. Now, if you're on Android, Flighty

55
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: is not there unfortunately, but there is an app that

56
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: I tested called App in the Air. App in the Air.

57
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: It's very similar to Flighty. It's not as beautiful, the

58
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: alerts aren't as up to minute, but they it's really

59
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: good and I use this on my flight to Paris

60
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: there and back and it was great. So Flighty for iOS,

61
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: App in the Air for Android, and I always send

62
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: you know, someone back home my information, you know, my

63
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 1: flight information, just so they have it for a point

64
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: of reference. That's what a good idea, and it's just

65
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: good to have one of these apps to get all

66
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: the updates so on your phone set up a widget

67
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: to show the time back home. So very simple. At

68
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 1: a clock widget to your phone's home screen so you

69
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: can easily keep track of the time difference. That is

70
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 1: a big deal for me because I don't know why.

71
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 1: You know, I'm from New Jersey, I live in California.

72
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: For some reason, all of these years later, I still

73
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: cannot figure out the time zone situation. And it's it's

74
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: not okay, I get it. If it's twelve o'clock here,

75
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: I know it's three o'clock back East. But it's when

76
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: those those other times, like eight am, nine am, well,

77
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: it's really only eleven am. All right, it's fine, it's

78
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 1: just eleven am. When someone says eleven am, I'm like, wait,

79
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 1: is it two pm? Is it one pm? But my

80
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: point is when you're overseas, it can get very confusing.

81
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: Just out of widget that shows your time back home,

82
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:50,119
Speaker 1: your time in your current place.

83
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 2: All good.

84
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: Now, when it comes to streaming content, most of the

85
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: streaming services these days let you download stuff to watch offline.

86
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 1: I'm kind of strange. I do not watch the entertainment

87
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: on the plane on the seatback.

88
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 2: I just never do.

89
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: It's kind of a rule of mine, and I've gone

90
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: too long without watching, so now I can't start. Even

91
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: though those systems have gotten a lot better. But I

92
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 1: don't like how the movies are all, you know, I

93
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: don't know what the quality is in the selection, So

94
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: I like that my own stuff. So download stuff to

95
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 1: watch offline. Netflix allows you to do this. YouTube allows

96
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: you to do this.

97
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 2: Some of them you have to be a paying member.

98
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 1: Some of them, you know, you have to have a

99
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: premium membership like it depends, so just check with your provider.

100
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,479
Speaker 1: So some of them will not let you offload or

101
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: offline watch stuff if you have like the Basic plan

102
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 1: or the ad supported plan. But this is getting better

103
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: and better, so definitely download stuff to your phone. And

104
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 1: then there's also something called smart downloads, so you can

105
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: have the app automatically download a bunch of content to

106
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 1: your phone without you even choosing what to watch, so

107
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: you always have something to watch, even if your phone

108
00:05:55,640 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: is an airplane mode. Currency converter, so you can ask

109
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: things like Google or Siri to convert your currency. But

110
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 1: I like an app called XE that is XE and

111
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: it's just a simple way to convert the currency. Sometimes

112
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: it's easy, you know, if you're in Europe, you know,

113
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 1: with the Euros it's kind of almost one to one,

114
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 1: but not really, but depends on the country you're going to.

115
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: But this makes it a lot easier, and again you

116
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: can add a widget to your homescreen to make that easier.

117
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: When it comes to maps, again, offline maps are your friend.

118
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: So the whole thing is when you're overseas, you're probably

119
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: not going to be using as much data as you

120
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 1: would here in the States because that data is going

121
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: to be put out a premium, or it's a little

122
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: bit slower, or you're looking for Wi Fi hotspots. You're

123
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,279
Speaker 1: avoiding data usehol together through cellular so you want to

124
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 1: download as much as possible. And both Apple Maps and

125
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: Google Maps support what's called offline maps. So when you

126
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: search for the city that you're going to on Google Maps,

127
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 1: you can tap offline. On Apple Maps, you can tap

128
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: offline and it will download those maps to your phone

129
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 1: so that you can navigate and search for things like

130
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,919
Speaker 1: streets even if you don't have a cellular connection. So

131
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: again Apple Maps, Google Maps download the offline maps. On

132
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: Google Maps, there's a little hack, so if you search

133
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: for the city, let's say you're going to Paris, search

134
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 1: for Paris, France. Put that in there, and then at

135
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: the top type in okay maps. I don't know why

136
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: it's okay maps. There's probably some you know, coding thing

137
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 1: or you know, a techie thing to deal with that

138
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: inside joke, but that will bring you immediately to the

139
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: to the offline maps feature to download that. Now, this

140
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: is the biggest question I get roaming and Wi Fi calling.

141
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: So here's my advice when it comes to roaming. Number one,

142
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 1: call your cellular provider. So call them. That's your first

143
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 1: thing to do. Whoever your cellular provider is, call them

144
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: and say, hey, what's the deal. I'm going to this country.

145
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: What are my roaming options? Do I have roaming included?

146
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: Do I have a certain amount of days that are free?

147
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: Sometimes if you're on a premium plan, you might get

148
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: like a day or two or three included and not

149
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: pay that ten dollars a month. Some are sorry, ten

150
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: dollars a day. Sometimes your provider might just charge you

151
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: ten dollars a day to use your phone as you

152
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: typically would.

153
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 2: But it all depends on your plan.

154
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 1: So call your provider see how many roaming days you have,

155
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 1: or if you have some banked and use those. Now,

156
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: if you don't want to roam, you don't want to

157
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: pay anything, you can turn off roaming on your phone

158
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: to avoid those charges, or you can just turn off

159
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: your cellular altogether. But before you leave the country, definitely

160
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: set up Wi Fi calling and texting. This way, you

161
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 1: can use Wi Fi hotspots to keep in touch. Now, again,

162
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: every cellular provider is a little bit different, but in general,

163
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 1: whatever's included in your plan here will be included there.

164
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: So let's say you can call anywhere in the US unlimited.

165
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: When you get to Paris, you'd be able to call

166
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 1: on Wi Fi calling anywhere back to the US unlimited,

167
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: but they would still charge you for calls that are

168
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: made to Paris phone numbers. Right, but most people are

169
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: calling back home, so that should probably work. But again check.

170
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 1: First thing to do just google roaming with your provider

171
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 1: name Wi Fi calling and see what their deal is.

172
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: And then of course you can get an eSIM. That's

173
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 1: the easiest way to just bypass the roaming situation altogether.

174
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: You can buy an eSIM right from an app. There

175
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: are many apps that offer eSIMs. My favorite is Aralow.

176
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 1: I've used it many times. It works great, but there

177
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: are plenty of other apps out there that do work well,

178
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 1: and the eSIM is a really easy way to do it,

179
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: and you could do it right from your phone, and

180
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 1: most of the major smartphones these days support the eSIM.

181
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: If you have an older phone with maybe just a

182
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: physical simcard slot, you may have to get a simcard

183
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 1: mail to you, or when you get to the airport

184
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: at that place, you can just buy a simcard there.

185
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 2: Now.

186
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: When it comes to translating, Google Translate, Apple Translate, they

187
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 1: are both your friends. Apple Translate is pre installed on

188
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 1: your iPhone. Google Translate works on both iOS and Android,

189
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 1: so download that and again download the language pack for

190
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 1: the country that you're visiting so you can get translations

191
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: without an Internet connection. Again see the theme here you

192
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: want to download stuff in advance. A couple other things

193
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 1: let's see here. Google Lens is a great feature if

194
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,199
Speaker 1: you're trying to identify monuments and translations, so make sure

195
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 1: you're familiar with how Google Lens works on your phone.

196
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,319
Speaker 1: AI is really helpful these days, so you can use

197
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 1: AI assistance like Chat, GBT, Claude, copilot Guide, Geek, and

198
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 1: also mind trip dot AI to give you access to

199
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: travel recommendations and even itineraries. But again, double check anything

200
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,839
Speaker 1: that AI is serving you up because it's not always factual.

201
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: It could be hallucinating some answers, so just be careful

202
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 1: about that. Tap to pay very very important to set

203
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: up tap to pay before you leave, because just like

204
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: here in the US, I mean, cash is still important,

205
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: but it is getting less important around the world. And

206
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: so yes, I'm sure there's some countries where cash is

207
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:56,959
Speaker 1: more widely accepted than the tap to pay, but in general,

208
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,719
Speaker 1: in my experience, in the main populated areas of the

209
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: world world, tap to pay is very popular. And so

210
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:04,840
Speaker 1: make sure you set up a mobile payment card on

211
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 1: your phone in advance so that you can use tap

212
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: to pay anywhere you are, and be sure that card

213
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 1: does not have any foreign transaction fees. Just because you

214
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: have a credit card or a debit card doesn't mean

215
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: they don't charge you one percent. So for instance, my

216
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 1: debit card actually charges me one percent on top of

217
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: every transaction, which kind of adds up, and so that's

218
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 1: not a card that I prefer to use when I

219
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: am traveling internationally. So definitely set up tap to pay.

220
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: You can do a lot with that. You can get

221
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 1: very far. In fact, I don't even exchange money anymore

222
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: at the cash exchange because my deal is I'll usually

223
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: go get cash at a local ATM so I get

224
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 1: the best exchange rate and I have some cash there

225
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,439
Speaker 1: if I need it. My last trip, I did not

226
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: get any cash out whatsoever in the foreign country, and

227
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: I was still able to get around. So those are

228
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,559
Speaker 1: some of my solutions for getting around. You can go

229
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 1: to the website rich on Tech dot tv for more

Speaker 1: kept singing that song all morning long. And I'm looking

243

248
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,719
Speaker 1: Sue from Bradbury, California write in, Hey, Rich, where does

249
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 1: the temperature on the Apple Watch come from? Cooper Tino?

250
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: That is a great question. Funny you ask that because

251
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: my wife, my kid, and me.

252
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 2: Were all in the car yesterday.

253
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: We're all wearing Apple Watches, and my wife comments how

254
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: hot it is outside, and she says, you know, whatever,

255
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 1: the temperature was in her watch. And my kid in

256
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: the backseat goes, well, mine says this, and I said, well,

257
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 1: mine says this. They were all off by a degree.

258
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 1: We're all in the same exact car, same Apple watch.

259
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 1: I don't know where the temperature is coming from. So

260
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 1: that's a great question.

261
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 2: I do know.

262
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: Apple bought a company called Dark Sky, which they now

263
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 1: incorporate their weather magic into their weather and it's gotten

264
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,679
Speaker 1: a lot better. But that was kind of a messy, messy.

265
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 1: Uh oh gosh, that was a messy purchase. Let me

266
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: just make sure was it called dark Sky Apple? Yeah,

267
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 1: dark Sky. Let's go to Mario in Riverside, California. Mario,

268
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 1: you're on with rich.

269
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 2: Are you there? Okay?

270
00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: I see, let's see. Okay, I hit the wrong button. Mario,

271
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,680
Speaker 1: you there? Nope, there you are? Okay, Now I locked

272
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 1: you there?

273
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 4: You go?

274
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 2: Okay? Now can you hear me?

275
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 4: Yes?

276
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:08,199
Speaker 2: Well we're off.

277
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: Great start here. I'm glad I know how to push buttons.

278
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 2: They didn't.

279
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 1: They never told me I had to know how to

280
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 1: push buttons for the show. What can I help you with?

281
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 3: Okay? So I have an iPhone Max fIF team and

282
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 3: I took my daughter on her fifteenth birthday when to

283
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 3: go see a concert. The question is how do I

284
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 3: get that video? I tried to transfer it on too

285
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 3: like a memory stick, and when they were going to

286
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 3: try to play it, it's telling me it's not there's

287
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 3: not the right format, or it's just not compatible like

288
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 3: with the windowed media player.

289
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

290
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 1: Well, welcome to the world of Apple. They are so

291
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 1: fun with stuff like this. So they did make a change.

292
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 1: I think it was a couple of years ago at

293
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: this point where they started putting their photos. You know,

294
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 1: it used to be the standard was a JPEG and

295
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: videos were in uh, I guess I know some sort

296
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: of move, but now they are changing that, and they're

297
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 1: doing it for a reason because the new file formats

298
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: are much more efficient, so they take up less space.

299
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: But they pretty much play on Apple products very easily

300
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: because Apple updated all their stuff, But all the other

301
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 1: products out there may not play them. So the thing

302
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 1: you can do is go into your settings on your iPhone.

303
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: You go into settings and then camera and then there's

304
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: something called formats and you'll notice right at the top

305
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 1: it says high efficiency and then most compatible. So if

306
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 1: you probably by default have high efficiency checked, and that

307
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 1: is going to make those videos in a format that

308
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 1: not every computer likes. So if you want to make

309
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 1: them more compatible with everything, just switch that to most compatible. Now,

310
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 1: that does not help you for the video you already

311
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: have of your daughter, So there are many programs that

312
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: can transform those videos. But I would just recommend downloading

313
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 1: a very helpful app called VLS see VLC Media Player,

314
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 1: and that will pretty much play any format you can

315
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 1: throw at it. It's a very handy program to have

316
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 1: on your computer, So just download that on your Windows computer,

317
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 1: Mac computer, you're Android. I don't know if they have

318
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: one for iPhone, but that will I do it for iOS,

319
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: so that will play pretty much any format you throw

320
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 1: at it.

321
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 2: So those are the things to do.

322
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 1: But in the future, the videos you take from here

323
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: on out will will be in the most compatible format,

324
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 1: which means every computer will be able to play them.

325
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 1: So hope that helps. That is a tricky situation. Whenever

326
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: I set up a new iPhone, it always wants to

327
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: take pictures in this HIC format, which I end up

328
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 1: having to It just doesn't work sometimes, like some programs

329
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: just don't like that, and so I'll have to go

330
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 1: in and convert those. Luckily, on the on the Mac computers,

331
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: at least you can write click them and it will

332
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: say to there's like a quick action where it says

333
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: convert image and so so I can convert that image

334
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: into a JPEG. But that's my preference because it's just

335
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 1: JPEG is JA and I get it. It's not as

336
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 1: efficient as the new format, but it's just so much

337
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 1: more widely accepted. So great question, Mario, Thanks for calling

Speaker 1: phone lines in just a moment. But you know, we're

353
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: still kind of feeling the heat from this whole CrowdStrike

354
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: incident that melted down half the Windows world last week,

355
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 1: and we've learned some lessons I think, and here to

356
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 1: talk about that. Steve Churchin, CISO of Zypro, a Semi

357
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 1: Valley based cybersecurity solutions company. Steve, welcome to the show, Rich,

358
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: Good morning, thanks for joining me. So let's talk about

359
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:37,159
Speaker 1: this incident. What's your main takeaway I guess from what

360
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 1: happened last week with this Windows update that went bad.

361
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 1: It wasn't really Windows fault though, well.

362
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 5: It was, And if you've ever wondered what a cyber

363
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:48,400
Speaker 5: attack on our global infrastructure would look like. Just take

364
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 5: a look at this cyber arc cyber sorry CrowdStrike incident.

365
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,479
Speaker 5: Reports say about eight and a half million Windows machines

366
00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 5: were affected. Well, this represents less than one percent of

367
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:04,199
Speaker 5: all devices running Windows. Unfortunately, these systems were some of

368
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 5: the in the most mission critical sectors of our global

369
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 5: economy in daily life. That's why the impact was so

370
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 5: large across so many varying sectors and businesses, and even

371
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 5: the consumer of the public felt it felt it the most.

372
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, especially if you're on like Delta Airlines.

373
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: I know a lot of a lot of people had

374
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 1: issues with that, but but it took down so many systems.

375
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: So that's what's what's concerning to me is that this

376
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: was a company that was paid to protect these computers.

377
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 2: People make mistakes. Humans make mistakes.

378
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 1: Obviously they're going to look into their you know, their

379
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 1: testing situation with their software updates before they go out.

380
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 1: But can this happen again?

381
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 5: Absolutely could happen again. And just think about your reliance

382
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 5: on not just Microsoft and Windows, but your Apple iPhone,

383
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 5: your Android devices, anything where there's a large segment of

384
00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 5: the population concentrated on a single technology or single provider,

385
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 5: this can happen again.

386
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,159
Speaker 1: So how do you prevent What do you do? Do

387
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: you diversify what you're using or what.

388
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 5: Diversify is an easy answer, but that's easier said than done.

389
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,719
Speaker 5: If we look at the Windows market, for example, seventy

390
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 5: five percent of every workstation out there is running a

391
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 5: Microsoft Windows operating system. You look at the mobile phone market,

392
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 5: seventy percent of all devices worldwide are running Android. And

393
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 5: I don't know if you've gone through this before, but

394
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 5: just trying to convince a Windows user, a lifelong Windows user,

395
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 5: to use something different like a Mac can be a

396
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 5: monumental feat. So we can say we need a diversifier technology,

397
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 5: but I don't know how practical that really would be.

398
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 1: Now, the interesting thing about this incident is that we

399
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 1: didn't hear anything about data being lost or our data

400
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 1: being shared or you know, leaked online or whatever because

401
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,160
Speaker 1: it wasn't a real cyber attack. So could that happen

402
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 1: in the future, Like, what could there be an instant

403
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: where something like this happens and our data is at risk?

404
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 5: Absolutely? Looking at a company like CrowdStrike, they service over

405
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 5: twenty four thousand enterprise customers. So if this were a

406
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 5: cyber attack and somebody did get in there, the possibility

407
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 5: that there's absolute possibility where they can excultrade data put

408
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 5: customer information at risk. We saw it a couple of

409
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 5: weeks ago with AT and T, the AT and T breach,

410
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 5: where they said nearly all of their customer records have

411
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 5: been compromised. So once they get in there, it's it's

412
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 5: for free for all. If they've got access to the data,

413
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 5: I can guarantee you they're going to take that data

414
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,919
Speaker 5: and try and monetize it the best they can. Putting

415
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 5: all of us at risk.

416
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:41,400
Speaker 2: That is wild.

417
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 1: What about Okay, so the home user, you know you

418
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,640
Speaker 1: talk about this layered approach to cybersecurity.

419
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 2: What does that mean exactly?

420
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 5: So doing the things that best practices dictates we do,

421
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,719
Speaker 5: for example, having antivirus, make sure your systems are all

422
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 5: protected using a proper anti virus program.

423
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: Before Before before we get to that, I want to

424
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 1: I'm curious about your thought because I always ask the

425
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:09,879
Speaker 1: cybersecurity experts about this. Windows has that defender built in.

426
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: Do you think people need something above and beyond that?

427
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,760
Speaker 5: I don't think so. For most users, Windows Defender Defender

428
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 5: will be more than enough. I personally like Windows Defender,

429
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,199
Speaker 5: and I've actually removed all my anti virus from all

430
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 5: my personal systems in relying on Windows Defender.

431
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,239
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay, so keep going. I like to hear that.

432
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 5: So Windows Defender does a great Job's god, it's come

433
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 5: a long way in the last few years to catch

434
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 5: up with the rest of those antivirus markets. So it's

435
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 5: got all of the features you would expect from a

436
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:43,640
Speaker 5: paid antivirus subscription. Before Windows Defender, I was actually using Kisperski,

437
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:48,160
Speaker 5: and I just got a notice from the company I

438
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,400
Speaker 5: was Kesperski from saying I can no longer renew Kispersky.

439
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 2: Yeah it was banned.

440
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's joining the likes of TikTok and Russia and

441
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: China and all this other stuff. We'll get to China's

442
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,719
Speaker 1: whole deal with this in a moment, but a continue

443
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,919
Speaker 1: your layered approach you were mentioning.

444
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 5: So making sure you've got antivirus turned on and using

445
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 5: it and not those free antiviruses. There's a big difference

446
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 5: between free anti virus and a paint subscription or Windows Defender.

447
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 5: So if you're going to use antivirus invest in a

448
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 5: good one. Windows Defender is a good one. It comes

449
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 5: with for free with the operating system. But there's others

450
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 5: out there. There's also these misconceptions that it's going to

451
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 5: slow down my computer, et cetera, it's going to provide

452
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 5: more benefit than it is going to provide all of

453
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 5: these other issues that people are worried about. I'm saying

454
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,360
Speaker 5: this tongue in cheek, but Windows updates. Making sure all

455
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 5: of your updates are applied as quickly as possible. Now, unfortunately,

456
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 5: the crowd strike incident was because of an update they

457
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 5: had pushed out, which goes counter to what the advocacy

458
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,439
Speaker 5: is to install those updates. But still you've got to

459
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 5: install those updates. The vendors are putting out those updates

460
00:23:55,920 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 5: because they're detecting bugs and vulnerabilities in their software, which

461
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 5: does updates help to patch, So install those updates. Make

462
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 5: sure your antivirus is updated current, turned on not disabled.

463
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 5: Make sure you're using a firewall. Windows has built in firewalls,

464
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,360
Speaker 5: make sure those are turned on. Those will help stop threats.

465
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 5: Make sure using two factor authentication for everything. Two factor

466
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,879
Speaker 5: authentication is where you log in with a username and

467
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 5: password and before you're granted access to a service or

468
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 5: an app or something that you either get a text

469
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 5: message or a prompt or some other way to verify

470
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 5: that you are who you say you are.

471
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's very important.

472
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: Most of the people that email me about getting hacked

473
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 1: on Facebook or Instagram a first question I ask I say, hey,

474
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,679
Speaker 1: did you have two factor and they say no, And

475
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:47,719
Speaker 1: so that's really how they get in. It's just you

476
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 1: give up that password and it's game over quickly. Before

477
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 1: we go, I wanted to talk about the La Courts

478
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles. The courts had a I guess like

479
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,159
Speaker 1: some sort of ransomware attack at the same time as

480
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: this CrowdStrike. So how are these major organizations and companies

481
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:04,919
Speaker 1: falling victim to stuff like this?

482
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 5: Most of the time, majority of the time, it's through

483
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 5: a phishing email. You'll get an email with a malicious

484
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:15,439
Speaker 5: link or an attachment as part of it. And if

485
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 5: you especially if you send this target non technical staff

486
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 5: like administrators or finance people hr, which are the likely

487
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 5: targets for these types of emails, it's very easy to

488
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 5: pull somebody into clicking a link which installs a malicious

489
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 5: program on your system, and that allows the attackers to

490
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 5: get their foot in the door into the network. It's

491
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,919
Speaker 5: it's crazy, and these emails are getting more and more sophisticated.

492
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, my mom sent me one today and as she said, Hey,

493
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 1: is this real or not? And I thought it was

494
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 1: fake and it actually turned out to be real. It

495
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 1: was like a notification from her bank about a charge

496
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 1: that they thought was fraudulent. So, Steve, you you work

497
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: with this stuff every day. You help protect companies, you know,

498
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 1: from all this stuff. Do you just sit there and

499
00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 1: like do you see stuff that's new on a daily

500
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 1: basis and say I can't believe this, Like these people

501
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,880
Speaker 1: are really just out to get everyone.

502
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 5: I wish I could say I'm seeing new threats, and

503
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,639
Speaker 5: there are new threats not to say, but the old

504
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 5: ones that have been around for a decade now are

505
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 5: still working because we make it too easy for them.

506
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 5: For example, what I just said about sending an email

507
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 5: with a link in it, people are still falling for it.

508
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:24,320
Speaker 5: That's why it's such a lucrative method to compromise and

509
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:28,360
Speaker 5: introduce ransomware into it into a system. So we've got

510
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 5: to be we've got to raise our own vigilance. So

511
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,399
Speaker 5: we've got to be more hyper aware of what's going on,

512
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 5: what the reality of the world is today, and making

513
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,399
Speaker 5: sure that we're not trusting everything that gets sent to

514
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 5: us that we're mis not trusting more than we are trusting,

515
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 5: because they're praying on our naivety. They're praying on us

516
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,919
Speaker 5: being quick to react, They're praying on all kinds of

517
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 5: human behavior that allows them to get in.

518
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 1: All right, I think we're going to leave it there.

519
00:26:55,880 --> 00:27:00,360

Speaker 2: Hey, Rich, mom has a good name. I agree.

547
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 6: I have an iPhone thirteen promat okay, and it wants

548
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:28,920
Speaker 6: and picks to non iPhones even when I turn off

549
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 6: the on message.

550
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 2: Oh that's interesting at all at all. Okay.

551
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 6: I have a brother and a friend both don't have iPhones,

552
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 6: and I've confused rooster to keep scrolling.

553
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 1: So sorry, Oh I don't hear the confused rooster. But

554
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: I love that name. I love It's like it's such

555
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: a character name. Confused Rooster. Hey, that's just confused rooster.

556
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 2: Okay.

557
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: So number one, what I would do is it sounds

558
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 1: like there is some sort of misconfiguration with your with

559
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: your network settings. So on the iPhone, there is a

560
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: way to reset those. Have you tried doing this?

561
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:05,240
Speaker 4: No, I have no wine.

562
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: Okay, So if you go into Settings and then General,

563
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 1: if you scroll all the way down, it says transfer,

564
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 1: transfer or reset phone. And it's a little scary because

565
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,360
Speaker 1: it makes it seem like it's gonna mess up everything,

566
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 1: but it's not. But if you tap that and then

567
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 1: you'll see something that says reset. And I don't want

568
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 1: you to do this just yet. I want you to

569
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: do your research before you actually do this, because there

570
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 1: are some things you have to redo after you change

571
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,959
Speaker 1: your settings. But inside there you'll see an option that

572
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 1: says reset network settings. And so if you reset those,

573
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 1: that will bring everything back to sort of factory, which

574
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 1: means it's gonna make sure that your cellular is connected right,

575
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 1: it's gonna make sure your messages are setting right, it's

576
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 1: gonna make sure your Wi Fi is all good, your

577
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 1: Bluetooth and so what you will have to do if

578
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 1: you decide to tap reset network settings is you will

579
00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 1: have to reconnect all of your Bluetooth devices and your

580
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 1: Wi fis. So that just be aware of that now,

581
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 1: I would probably recommend doing that. But here's the other

582
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: thing you can do. Are you trying to send these

583
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 1: messages in an existing text thread or are you starting

584
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 1: a new one? Okay, so on iPhone sometimes it gets

585
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 1: hung up on sending messages to non iPhone users in

586
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: an existing thread if something ever went wrong, and so

587
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 1: what I would do is delete that thread. You can

588
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 1: swipe right to left on any thread inside your messages

589
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: up will pop up a trash can in red. You

590
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 1: can press delete, and then I would try typing composing

591
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 1: a new message to this person and sending the photo.

592
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 1: The other thing, obviously, before you do anything else, is

593
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 1: just do a reset of your phone. You can actually

594
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 1: ask Siri to reset your phone or restart your phone

595
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 1: rather and so obviously restarting your phone can help. But

596
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 1: those are the methods that I would do to fix

597
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 1: that problem. Now, if you're looking at just sending pictures

598
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 1: between iPhone and Android, I've talked about this before, but

599
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 1: it's all going to get better come September because iPhone

600
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 1: is finally getting what's called RCS messaging, which means you'll

601
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: be able to send photos and videos to Android phones

602
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 1: and vice versa. Just the way you send them to

603
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 1: I Message recipients. So you can send large, large photos,

604
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,479
Speaker 1: large videos, and they will finally look the same that

605
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:33,239
Speaker 1: they should some other methods. If you're looking for some

606
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 1: workarounds in the meantime, I always recommend using a third

607
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 1: party app to send large files and photos and videos,

608
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 1: something like a Telegram, something like a Facebook Messenger. You

609
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 1: can even use Instagram Messenger. There are some apps as well,

610
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 1: So WhatsApp obviously is a great app to send large

611
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 1: photos and videos between different platforms. But there's also an

612
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 1: app called local Send. And now I'm just kind of

613
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: bringing this out more broadly for send exchanging photos and

614
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 1: videos on iPhone and Android. A lot of this will

615
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: be a moot point comes September, but right now it's

616
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: still very valid. But there's a website called local send

617
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: dot org and this is a free, open source, cross

618
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 1: platform tool that lets you send files to nearby devices.

619
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: And so if you install local send on your laptop

620
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 1: and on your phone and they're on the same Wi

621
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:28,479
Speaker 1: Fi network, you'll be able to share those files fast

622
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 1: and free, and they can be large size, and so

623
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 1: that's really easy, and that's great. If let's say you've

624
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,680
Speaker 1: got a maccomputer and an iPhone at home and you

625
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 1: want to exchange files, that's an easy way to do it. Now,

626
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 1: if you don't want to download any software, there's a

627
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 1: handy website called snap drop dot net snap drop dot net,

628
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 1: and all you have to do is go to this

629
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 1: website on both devices, and as long as you're on

630
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 1: the same network, you can exchange files between those two

631
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 1: devices with no software downloads. So it's a really easy

632
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 1: way to share items across the network without downloading any

633
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 1: software or really figuring out a lot, because you're just

634
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: going to a website. So those are two really easy

635
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 1: ways to exchange photos and videos, kind of like air drop,

636
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 1: but air drop is proprietary between iPhones or between mac

637
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: anything Apple, and so these are systems that work across

638
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 1: various devices. And by the way, Android has their own

639
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 1: their own version of air drop. They call it they

640
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: just renamed it. It's now called what's it called now,

641
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: quicksend our quick share, I think it's called and they

642
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:43,480
Speaker 1: just so that was actually Samsung's property, quick Share, and

643
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 1: then Android kind of absorbed it and now it works

644
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 1: across all androids. So the neat thing about quick share

645
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: is that it works across all Android phones. So if

646
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: you have Android to Android, always use quick Share because

647
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 1: it's so simple and you can share large files nearby.

648
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: If you haven't a Samsung phone, it actually takes it

649
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 1: up a notch and it gives you a QR code

650
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 1: that the other person can scan. Now, the only issue

651
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 1: with all of this is that if you're in an

652
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:11,799
Speaker 1: area where you only have a cell signal and you're

653
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 1: trying to share a big file, it does need to

654
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,279
Speaker 1: upload that file over the cell signal. So if it's

655
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 1: not a very good signal, it's not going to be

656
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 1: very good. Diane and Pineland, thanks so much for your

657
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 1: call today. Appreciate that. Okay, I'm gonna waste a little

658
00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:26,440
Speaker 1: bit of your time or you're gonna waste your own

659
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 1: time once I tell you about this. I already see

660
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:31,319
Speaker 1: Bobo playing with it. But it's a new feature from

661
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:35,320
Speaker 1: Meta called imagine Me. So we've seen all these AI

662
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,840
Speaker 1: selfie generators out there, a lot of them required you

663
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:43,360
Speaker 1: to download an app. This is built in now to Facebook, Instagram, Messenger,

664
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 1: and WhatsApp, and the way to access it is just

665
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: all you have to do is chat and so imagine

666
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 1: me as an AI image generator. It's available in beta

667
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: and it makes any picture of you you want, doing

668
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,280
Speaker 1: anything you want in any style. So it's a self

669
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 1: portrait and it's really really good. So all you have

670
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,880
Speaker 1: to do to access this and it's rolling out, so

671
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 1: don't yell at me if you don't have access to

672
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 1: access to it right away. It may say, hey, you

673
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,239
Speaker 1: don't have access just yet. But if you go into

674
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 1: let's just say Instagram, and you go into your chat

675
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: window and then you tap where it says ask Meta

676
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 1: AI and then there's a little blue arrow to the

677
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 1: right and that will take you into Meta AI. This

678
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 1: is their version of Chat GPT. And then all you

679
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 1: have to do is type imagine me as anything, so

680
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:34,919
Speaker 1: you can say astronaut, firefighter, whatever, and that will start

681
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 1: the process. It will ask you to take three selfies

682
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 1: and then from there on out you can imagine yourself

683
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:40,320
Speaker 1: as anything.

684
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 2: It is so much fun.

685
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 1: You can go to my Instagram at rich on Tech

686
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,440

695
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: and uh, we've lost everyone, the entire audience. Everyone is

696
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,879
Speaker 1: now playing with this feature on their phone and it's

697
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,840
Speaker 1: so much fun. I actually think this might be the

698
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,840
Speaker 1: best thing that Meta has ever come out with, because

699
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: it's it's just so well done, and it's not perfect,

700
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 1: believe me, it's AI selfies, but it's just so fun.

701
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 1: If you want to see it, go to at rich

702
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,879
Speaker 1: on tech on Instagram. I've got the uh, the instructions

703
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,720
Speaker 1: on how to access it, but be warned, not everyone

704
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 1: has access just yet. It's still rolling out to everyone,

705
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 1: and if you do try it, you will waste at

706
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,719
Speaker 1: least a portion of your day. All right, let's go

707
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 1: to We got an email here from Let's see here,

708
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: Joe writes in I've received a concerning letter from Ticketmaster

709
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 1: about a data breach through a third party cloud database.

710
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:15,799
Speaker 2: From April to May.

711
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 1: They're offering twelve months of free credit monitoring, but I'm

712
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 1: not sure what to do could I have caused this breach?

713
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:25,360
Speaker 1: What exactly is a cloud database? Should I take this seriously? Interestingly,

714
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,040
Speaker 1: Ticketmaster claims I have an account with them, which I

715
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 1: don't recall creating. My credit has been locked with the

716
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 1: three major credit bureaus for about six years due to

717
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 1: a past incident with PayPal. What steps should I take

718
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:40,239
Speaker 1: to protect myself in this situation? You and many other

719
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 1: people this Ticketmaster data security incident. All the companies when

720
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 1: they have one of these data breaches, they play it down.

721
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,360
Speaker 1: They just put like this help page on their website

722
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 1: that with this very like innocuous title like Ticketmaster data

723
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 1: Security incident, Like, no, we got hacked and you know

724
00:37:57,760 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 1: all of your information's now floating around on the way,

725
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 1: So what happened? This is the actual thing you need

726
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 1: to know. So a third party cloud database, So that

727
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,400
Speaker 1: means something they had stored with a third party vendor

728
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 1: that vendor got hacked or breached, and that information has

729
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:20,839
Speaker 1: been stolen or leaked or taken, and so there's been

730
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 1: no unauthorized activity after that.

731
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,280
Speaker 2: This is what Ticketmaster's saying. So what was in this database?

732
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 1: That's what we always want to know, right, The database

733
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:32,920
Speaker 1: contains limited personal information of some customers who bought tickets

734
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 1: to events in North America, US, Canada, Mexico, so that

735
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:39,839
Speaker 1: means they know that you went to Taylor Swift. This

736
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 1: information includes email, phone number, encrypted credit card information, as

737
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 1: well as some other personal information provided to us. So

738
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,440
Speaker 1: my thought on this is that I don't think you

739
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 1: gave Ticketmaster your social security number. I'm not sure if

740
00:38:56,160 --> 00:39:00,200
Speaker 1: they collect dates of birth, but the information that's out

741
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,400
Speaker 1: there is your email address and your phone number, and

742
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 1: those are probably pretty good pieces of information to have.

743
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: So that means they may target people with some sort

744
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 1: of phishing email based on your email or phone numbers,

745
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 1: so you could see a rise in spam or text

746
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,680
Speaker 1: because of that. Now, the encrypted credit card information, I'm

747
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: not really worried about because with credit cards versus your

748
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 1: actual bank account. Now, if it's your debit card, they

749
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 1: say credit card, so that could include debit cards. I'm

750
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 1: not really sure why they use the word credit card,

751
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 1: but that could also be debit cards. So in that

752
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: case it is troubling because that means you could see

753
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 1: a charge on your credit card or your debit card

754
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,160
Speaker 1: because of this hack. Now they say they were encrypted,

755
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 1: which means unless the third party or the hackers, you know,

756
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 1: somehow unencrypt these and crack that encryption and then decode them.

757
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:53,960
Speaker 1: They may not have the full credit card information, but

758
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 1: as far as data breaches go, this one is not

759
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,399
Speaker 1: as bad as a lot of them that we you've seen,

760
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,240
Speaker 1: like the AT and T one had everything. Every piece

761
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,759
Speaker 1: of information that you could have about yourself is in

762
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 1: the AT and T hack, which is on the dark

763
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,760
Speaker 1: web as we speak. That's your name, that's your phone number,

764
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:14,319
Speaker 1: that's your data birth that's your your account numbers, and

765
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,520
Speaker 1: also your Social Security number.

766
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:18,359
Speaker 2: That was not done here.

767
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 1: So should you take advantage of that free twelve twelvemonth

768
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:26,840
Speaker 1: identity monitoring service? That's up to you personally. I would

769
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:30,280
Speaker 1: not in this case because I'm not seeing the level

770
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:33,360
Speaker 1: of personal information that I'm concerned about. My email address,

771
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 1: my phone number, it's out there. You can search for

772
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,880
Speaker 1: anyone's out there. It's all on the web. So the

773
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:41,400
Speaker 1: credit card number, again, if it's credit card, I'm not

774
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,720
Speaker 1: really that's more of a Chase problem, American Express problem.

775
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 2: They will deal with those fraudulent charges.

776
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,799
Speaker 1: If it's your bank, Bank of America, Chase, you know,

777
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:54,799
Speaker 1: whatever bank you have, that's more. That's more of an

778
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 1: issue because those charges will show up on your account

779
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,799
Speaker 1: if there is a farge of fraud in charge, like

780
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,360
Speaker 1: a you know, on your bank account, because debit cards

781
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,359
Speaker 1: take money directly from your accounts. So in that case,

782
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 1: I would be a little concerned. But there's still not

783
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 1: much you can do once this information's out there. It's

784
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 1: out there, So I hope that answers your question a

785
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,399
Speaker 1: little bit, Joe. But as far as some of these

786
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: other breaches, the Ticketmaster one feels ichy and I can't

787
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 1: believe these companies still every single breach that we're seeing

788
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 1: a majority of them are through these third party databases.

789
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:27,399
Speaker 2: And what does that mean.

790
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:29,799
Speaker 1: Well, all these big companies they use, they rely on

791
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 1: other companies to help them do their work, and these

792
00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 1: other companies may not be as protected as say Ticketmaster,

793
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 1: and so that's what happens when all these things go bad.

794
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 1: Let's go to uh, let's go to Mark in Winetka. Okay,

795
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 1: there we go, Mark, you're on.

796
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:50,960
Speaker 7: With R Yes, sir, I wanted to ask you about

797
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 7: getting free. I'm just a casual user to do some

798
00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 7: editing software for photos and videos and interested in a

799
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:03,040
Speaker 7: download a downloader for YouTube. But you know, I was

800
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 7: thinking of listening to all the phone questions you're answering.

801
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,879
Speaker 7: Do you know if there's anything that can replace the

802
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:14,480
Speaker 7: phone I loved most, which was the Yoda three. It

803
00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 7: had a dual sided screen on its phone. I see

804
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,719
Speaker 7: that there's something like the High Sense that has a

805
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:24,400
Speaker 7: even has a color e inc. I like it because

806
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:27,719
Speaker 7: it used very little energy. I go out on a

807
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,759
Speaker 7: long distance writing, so I run an app and if

808
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 7: I run it on the e ink it hardly uses

809
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 7: any power whatsoever. I do you have any suggestions there?

810
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:38,759
Speaker 1: Okay, well let's break down some of your questions. So

811
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,920
Speaker 1: first off, for the e phone, there is a phone

812
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:43,919
Speaker 1: that a lot of people are it's getting a lot

813
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 1: of publicity right now or a lot of press. It's

814
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:50,960
Speaker 1: called the Books Palma Box, Palma p A l M

815
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:54,719
Speaker 1: A and this is basically the kindle of smartphone. So

816
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:58,480
Speaker 1: the screen is e inc and I've not gotten this personally,

817
00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 1: I do. I'm actually tempted to get one, but you know,

818
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,239
Speaker 1: it's it's kind of pricey for what it is.

819
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 2: It is three hundred bucks.

820
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 1: But like you said, it is an e ink display,

821
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: which means the battery is gonna last, you know, forever

822
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 1: on this thing. It's basically a mini kindle that runs Android,

823
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:17,839
Speaker 1: and so you can read on it, but you can

824
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:21,879
Speaker 1: also run actual Android apps on it. So again that's

825
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:25,719
Speaker 1: the books Palma Box Palma. That's the only one I know.

826
00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 1: There's been a lot of phones that experimented with these

827
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:32,279
Speaker 1: e ink displays, like on the backside, they've never come

828
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:36,160
Speaker 1: to a place where they're you know, super popular, and

829
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:38,399
Speaker 1: so they've they've never been very prevalent, Like we haven't

830
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:42,600
Speaker 1: seen a mainstream device with that feature. But this book's

831
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:45,680
Speaker 1: Palma is probably the most popular at this point. And

832
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,200
Speaker 1: I'll be honest, I want one. I don't know why

833
00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: I have a kindle. I've got many smartphones, as Bobo

834
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:55,239
Speaker 1: can attest to, but I this thing just seems fun, right.

835
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:57,839
Speaker 1: It's just like it's an e ink reader that also

836
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,880
Speaker 1: runs Android. So that's for that. When it comes to

837
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,879
Speaker 1: video editing, I will tell you my favorite apps and

838
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 1: you can use them. Number one is free. It is

839
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 1: called cap cut, and that is probably the number one

840
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,439
Speaker 1: app that every creator out there is using to edit

841
00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 1: video on their mobile phone. So it does come from TikTok.

842
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 1: So there is a level of like ichiness there, but

843
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,960
Speaker 1: it's got every feature you could ever imagine, and it

844
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:29,080
Speaker 1: is fantastic. It is what I use a majority of

845
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:31,360
Speaker 1: the time to edit anything that is on my phone

846
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:36,360
Speaker 1: or on social media. It's completely free. There are obviously

847
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 1: paid features inside of that, but you can completely avoid

848
00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,239
Speaker 1: those and use that program for free to edit on

849
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 1: your phone. It works for both iPhone and Android, and

850
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,360
Speaker 1: it's really really good. The other app that I like

851
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:55,200
Speaker 1: for editing is called Splice. Splic I'll be honest, I

852
00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:58,360
Speaker 1: don't use it as much because cap Cut does pretty

853
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,359
Speaker 1: much everything I need. I think Splice has a much

854
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:06,279
Speaker 1: more simple and beautiful design. But again it's a freemium

855
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 1: kind of level app, so you can do a couple

856
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:10,760
Speaker 1: of things on there for free, but at some point

857
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 1: you may have to pay for some of the features

858
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,640
Speaker 1: that are on there. There are other apps as well.

859
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:19,279
Speaker 1: Apple has one called Clips. But if you search the

860
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,640
Speaker 1: app store, if you just you know, even if I

861
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:23,400
Speaker 1: search for cap cut, I'm sure I'll get like a

862
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:27,120
Speaker 1: million different video editors. Let's see you got cap cut.

863
00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: I mean, there's so many video editors that you can download,

864
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:31,759
Speaker 1: but I will tell you the one that I like.

865
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,839
Speaker 1: The most is the is the cap cut one and

866
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 1: the splice there is I'm trying to remember the other

867
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 1: one that's very popular.

868
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 2: I can't think of it off the top of my head.

869
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,080
Speaker 1: But the other thing that everyone does and I just

870
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:45,919
Speaker 1: did this with the video if you look at the video,

871
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:50,040
Speaker 1: I posted a confessional today about my newfound love of

872
00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 1: the I don't know what they call them. It's like

873
00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:56,600
Speaker 1: the it's like a Stanley cup but it has like

874
00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:59,080
Speaker 1: a straw in it, and I just I never had

875
00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:01,560
Speaker 1: one until today. Yeah, this is the one I'm using.

876
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:05,040
Speaker 1: Is called hydroflask, but Stanley is the other brand. But uh,

877
00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:07,160
Speaker 1: if you notice everyone's doing that thing where it's like

878
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,839
Speaker 1: they put the captions on the screen. There's many many

879
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,360
Speaker 1: ways you can do it, but the the absolute best

880
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:16,920
Speaker 1: way is an app called Captions Go Figure and it's

881
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:20,319
Speaker 1: it's really good. Like I'm not kidding. You know, my

882
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,160
Speaker 1: name is spelled d E m U r O. Nine

883
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 1: percent of the time if you're doing like a text

884
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:28,719
Speaker 1: to uh to you know, voice to text, it's gonna

885
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,520
Speaker 1: spell it d I m E r O. This one

886
00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:33,239
Speaker 1: gets it and nails it every time. I don't know

887
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:37,319
Speaker 1: what kind of uh magic and witchcraft they have, you know,

888
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:42,200
Speaker 1: based this on, but their AI captions are just incredibly accurate.

889
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 1: Now again, I paid nine ninety nine for the month.

890
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:48,880
Speaker 1: I know people that pay ten bucks a month for this.

891
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:52,879
Speaker 1: You can pay for the year. But between those three, uh, Mark,

892
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:54,520
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna find what you need to edit

893
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,719
Speaker 1: eight a eight rich one on one eight eight eight

898
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:14,239
Speaker 1: favorite thing to do.

899
00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 2: No, seriously, I mean, ask anyone. It's kind of you know.

900
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 1: I don't want to say I'm like a doctor, but

901
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:23,279
Speaker 1: literally people come up to me, you know how you

902
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:25,319
Speaker 1: might see a doctor and say, hey, can you check

903
00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:27,520
Speaker 1: this out? This is what people do to me all

904
00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:32,200
Speaker 1: day long at work, play grocery store, no matter what. Hey, Rich,

905
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:34,359
Speaker 1: can you just take a look at this rule. I'm

906
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:36,160
Speaker 1: not kidding, I kid you not. I was at a

907
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:40,120
Speaker 1: rest stop between here in Vegas and guy comes up

908
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:42,279
Speaker 1: to me, and you know, him and his wife and

909
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,399
Speaker 1: they're like, hey, Rich, and the guy wants to ask

910
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:46,200
Speaker 1: me a question about something on his phone, and the

911
00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:48,359
Speaker 1: wife literally was like pulling him, say, he doesn't want

912
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 1: to deal with that right now, he's just trying to

913
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:51,400
Speaker 1: charge up his car.

914
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:55,480
Speaker 2: Anyway, it happens. I've done that to you before. It's

915
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:57,839
Speaker 2: it's fun. Yeah, I don't mind it.

916
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,560
Speaker 8: It's a challenge, but it was easy challenge. It was

917
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:02,759
Speaker 8: just about a phone. Remember when I was by my

918
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:05,640
Speaker 8: wife's phone. Yeah, about the sandsung between that and a flip.

919
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,319
Speaker 8: Now I feel bad. I'm not calling you no more.

920
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:13,440
Speaker 2: Text me, Okay, I'll do that. Text me all right, Let's.

921
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:18,839
Speaker 1: Go to uh, let's go to Nanette in Glendale, California

922
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:19,919
Speaker 1: and the that you're on with rich?

923
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:27,560
Speaker 9: Oh? Yes, how do I remove personal information from Google?

924
00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:32,400
Speaker 9: Because it's unsafe? And my accounts were hacked. My accounts

925
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,440
Speaker 9: and devices were hacked three times that I know of,

926
00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:38,520
Speaker 9: within the year. The worst one was last April and

927
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:43,000
Speaker 9: including my bank account online was hacked and I put

928
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:46,759
Speaker 9: ib password was hacked, Gmail password was tacked, credit card

929
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:50,560
Speaker 9: number was hacked, and my phone was hacked and so.

930
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:52,160
Speaker 10: To me.

931
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:55,880
Speaker 9: So I had to put a credit freeze on my

932
00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:58,920
Speaker 9: three on the three credit bureaus, and then I got

933
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:02,160
Speaker 9: another letter saying that there was a notice of data

934
00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:07,360
Speaker 9: breach that my name, social Security number, date data, birth

935
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:12,080
Speaker 9: and address were on public online from November twenty twenty

936
00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:14,919
Speaker 9: three to December three, twenty twenty three.

937
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:19,160
Speaker 1: And so yeah, so I mean yet, so what I'm

938
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:20,840
Speaker 1: what I'm hearing is that you've got a lot of

939
00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:23,719
Speaker 1: your personal information online and you don't want it there.

940
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:27,919
Speaker 9: Every time I move, my current address is on.

941
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:29,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, well we'll go. Here's the thing.

942
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:32,480
Speaker 9: It's against our privacy, right.

943
00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:34,239
Speaker 2: No, it's not.

944
00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 1: Why not, Well, because they're getting it from databases that

945
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 1: are public, and anytime you move or buy a house

946
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:43,640
Speaker 1: or anything that information is public, someone's got it in

947
00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 1: a courthouse somewhere. And what these companies do is they

948
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,120
Speaker 1: go there and they get it and they put it online.

949
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:50,799
Speaker 1: And it's not Google. They're just indexing the information. So

950
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,320
Speaker 1: Google's actually not putting it there. But with all that said,

951
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:57,760
Speaker 1: I understand what you're saying. It's it's it's not fun

952
00:49:57,800 --> 00:49:59,600
Speaker 1: to have this stuff on there. It's not fun to

953
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:01,880
Speaker 1: do a search for yourself and see your home address,

954
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:04,799
Speaker 1: see your phone number, see your data birth. It's all

955
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:05,480
Speaker 1: out there though.

956
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:09,200
Speaker 9: And then yeah, I told the police when I reported

957
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,320
Speaker 9: this to the police, and I'm gonna I reported it

958
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:14,640
Speaker 9: to Federal Trade Commissions and I'm gonna report it to FBI.

959
00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:20,400
Speaker 9: I told the police because so many people are following me,

960
00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:23,600
Speaker 9: like always talking me and harassing me. They know what

961
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:28,880
Speaker 9: my bank is and anyone anything related to me. Their

962
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:32,280
Speaker 9: computers were also hacked, like they followed me everywhere.

963
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:33,800
Speaker 2: Why do you think this is happening.

964
00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:38,200
Speaker 9: I don't know, because I don't know these people. And

965
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,839
Speaker 9: then they know where my bank is, and then they

966
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:46,520
Speaker 9: tried also to Fortunately, they also tried to hack into

967
00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 9: my and and I think they were able to sow

968
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:51,879
Speaker 9: I was Fortunately I was able to call the bank

969
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:55,439
Speaker 9: and block my account right away. And and the thing

970
00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:58,920
Speaker 9: is also even though if my credit free, there's a

971
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:04,239
Speaker 9: credit free on credit Euros and every time they every

972
00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:06,120
Speaker 9: time I have to apply for a loan, I have

973
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:10,560
Speaker 9: to unlock it temporarily and then and then the thing

974
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:14,960
Speaker 9: is you can't just unlock it without going through certain

975
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:20,520
Speaker 9: questions to authenticate your identity. And one of them is

976
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,839
Speaker 9: like they would ask like a previous address, and it's

977
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,400
Speaker 9: all there in Google. So all the hacker has to

978
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:36,719
Speaker 9: do is go to h h uh yeah, old addresses

979
00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:39,919
Speaker 9: are there and my parents, and it's also not saying well,

980
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:44,160
Speaker 9: I have a suspicion there's a guy who had been

981
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:48,720
Speaker 9: stalking me before COVID, and so I tried to apply

982
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:52,640
Speaker 9: for a restraining order in the court. This was just

983
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:57,799
Speaker 9: a month or two weeks before COVID, and we went

984
00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:01,799
Speaker 9: there several times and we ended up in a court

985
00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:05,200
Speaker 9: agreement because we have our own jobs and we need

986
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:06,279
Speaker 9: it to be all right.

987
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 1: Well, listen, I'm running up against a break here, so

988
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:11,480
Speaker 1: I've got to put you on hold there for a

989
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,759
Speaker 1: second so I can get some good information out there.

990
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:17,000
Speaker 1: For anyone listening that does want to remove their information

991
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,160
Speaker 1: from Google. There are companies that can get some of

992
00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 1: your information down from these services, like a company like

993
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:27,960
Speaker 1: delete me in Cogni. Those are two of the main

994
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:30,440
Speaker 1: ones that can get some of your information off of

995
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:34,759
Speaker 1: these brokerage databases. The one that's free that you can

996
00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:38,359
Speaker 1: do right now by yourself, very simply, and it's completely free.

997
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 1: It's called Google Results about You. And so if you

998
00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:45,840
Speaker 1: go there Google that information, sign up for that removal

999
00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:49,080
Speaker 1: request form, you put the information in there. It searches

1000
00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:51,879
Speaker 1: for your name, your phone number, your address, whatever you want,

1001
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:54,400
Speaker 1: it will find that information on the web and then

1002
00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:56,120
Speaker 1: it will say, hey, we found it on this website.

1003
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,560
Speaker 1: Would you like us to take that information off of

1004
00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:01,319
Speaker 1: our search results? And you just say yes, and it

1005
00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:03,800
Speaker 1: will take that down within twenty four hours. Now, remember

1006
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:07,520
Speaker 1: that's just taking down the search result. That's not taking

1007
00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 1: down your information from the source website. If you want

1008
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:12,800
Speaker 1: to do that, you have to go through manually, contact

1009
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:16,440

Speaker 4: Rov Welcome, Hi, Rich, Thank you for having me on.

1029
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:22,360
Speaker 1: Thanks for being here. So we're gonna talk about Samsung's

1030
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:24,520
Speaker 1: latest devices. They came out, the whole bunch of them.

1031
00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 1: They've got two foldable phones, they've got a new ultra

1032
00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 1: watch plus a regular watch. Plus they're smart ring that

1033
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,359
Speaker 1: a lot of people are talking about. But first, I

1034
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:36,520
Speaker 1: just wanted you to share your story, your medical story,

1035
00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:41,359
Speaker 1: just wild and why you think, you know, people should

1036
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:43,719
Speaker 1: really be interested in this, in this health monitoring because

1037
00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:43,920
Speaker 1: of it.

1038
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:45,000
Speaker 2: So tell me what happened.

1039
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,759
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I've always been someone who generally, you know,

1040
00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:53,000
Speaker 4: took my health and granted never had anything major. And

1041
00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:55,280
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty I had probably one of the biggest

1042
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:58,840
Speaker 4: things you can have a heart attack, literally the a

1043
00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:02,879
Speaker 4: few hours in to Black Priding. So just a little

1044
00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:06,040
Speaker 4: bit of stress related causes there. And ever since then,

1045
00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:08,239
Speaker 4: I've been on a journey to look at how you

1046
00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:12,160
Speaker 4: improve your health using technology. I know that people have

1047
00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:15,160
Speaker 4: looked at that before, but when I was kind of

1048
00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:17,680
Speaker 4: going through well how am I going to recover? I

1049
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:22,080
Speaker 4: realized that technology gives you access to data. It's not

1050
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:25,480
Speaker 4: for everybody, but if you like data and you're the

1051
00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:29,320
Speaker 4: type of person who loves to play games or little

1052
00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:32,040
Speaker 4: competitions with yourself where you're like, oh, I might have

1053
00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:34,600
Speaker 4: slept this way, this was my score. I need to

1054
00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:37,359
Speaker 4: get better, and that's the kind of person I am.

1055
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:41,280
Speaker 4: This is the most transformative thing to helping you actually

1056
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:44,400
Speaker 4: get better in a way that you're motivated to do so.

1057
00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:47,839
Speaker 1: And this heart attack happened at the young, very young

1058
00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:50,879
Speaker 1: age of thirty three, which makes it all that more

1059
00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:53,719
Speaker 1: unique and important for the rest of your life.

1060
00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:54,240
Speaker 2: Obviously.

1061
00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:59,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I think a lot of people say

1062
00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:01,080
Speaker 4: the heart attackles greatest thing that happened to him, and

1063
00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,440
Speaker 4: I completely concur with that. But I think when it

1064
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:06,319
Speaker 4: happens later in your life versus happening at thirty three,

1065
00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 4: when you're at middle not even middle, depending on your

1066
00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:15,520
Speaker 4: own trajectory, you it makes you really understand that this

1067
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:17,920
Speaker 4: is this is a chance, this is a chance to rebuild.

1068
00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:22,240
Speaker 4: Since the heart attack, I've lost over one hundred pounds

1069
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:24,680
Speaker 4: some of it medical related to some of it just

1070
00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:27,919
Speaker 4: because I'm way more active and exercising a lot more,

1071
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:30,839
Speaker 4: not just because of the heart attack, but I'm also diabetic,

1072
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,440
Speaker 4: and I have other small ailments that kind of all

1073
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:39,719
Speaker 4: bound together and part of doing part of just being

1074
00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:41,279
Speaker 4: able to go well. I actually want to live another

1075
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:45,800
Speaker 4: thirty forty years has been I don't want to wait

1076
00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:48,680
Speaker 4: and go to a doctor every two months and get

1077
00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:52,200
Speaker 4: a check to then go well in two months time.

1078
00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:55,840
Speaker 4: You know there's a delayed gratification there. I want to

1079
00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 4: know that when I'm doing better than I and I

1080
00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:01,040
Speaker 4: made the decision to do better, whether it's my blood

1081
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:05,040
Speaker 4: sugar and my weight, my pressure and my heart rate,

1082
00:57:05,160 --> 00:57:08,080
Speaker 4: my variability, or any of these metrics. I kind of

1083
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:10,280
Speaker 4: want to know that the things I'm doing are having

1084
00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:13,240
Speaker 4: actions straight away, not wait for a doctor to tell.

1085
00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:16,120
Speaker 1: Me that is that is such a key aspect of

1086
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:20,120
Speaker 1: health in the year twenty twenty four, And I one

1087
00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:22,480
Speaker 1: hundred percent agree, because you know, I go to the

1088
00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:25,520
Speaker 1: doctor once a year for a physical checkup. You meet

1089
00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:27,320
Speaker 1: with the doctor, and I love my guy, but like

1090
00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:29,960
Speaker 1: you know, it's quick and you get your results back,

1091
00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:33,640
Speaker 1: usually by a voicemail and that's it. And so this technology,

1092
00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:36,160
Speaker 1: these health monitoring systems, like what we're going to talk

1093
00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:38,760
Speaker 1: about with Samsung and the rings is it's giving you

1094
00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:41,360
Speaker 1: a media information and I know, the holy grail with

1095
00:57:41,760 --> 00:57:45,400
Speaker 1: you know, diabetics is the blood glucose through you know,

1096
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:47,880
Speaker 1: a non evasive method, right like maybe through a watch,

1097
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:50,680
Speaker 1: which we're not there just yet. Weight Yeah, I know

1098
00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:53,480
Speaker 1: a lot of people ready for that. But the heart

1099
00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:55,800
Speaker 1: stuff and all this other it does continue to build.

1100
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:58,400
Speaker 1: So let's talk about your impressions of, you know, sort

1101
00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:01,160
Speaker 1: of what Samsung did with the ring and the Ultra Watch.

1102
00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 2: What do you make of these things?

1103
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:05,920
Speaker 4: Oh? I really like the ring. The ring is super

1104
00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 4: interesting because I have I get swollen fingers a lot,

1105
00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:11,919
Speaker 4: and one of the best parts of the Galaxy ring

1106
00:58:11,920 --> 00:58:16,160
Speaker 4: designed for me is it's concave that bends inwards versus

1107
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:19,520
Speaker 4: a traditional ring is either slightly outwards or flat. When

1108
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:22,440
Speaker 4: it bends inwards, and you've got swollen fingers like I

1109
00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:25,720
Speaker 4: do a lot, it doesn't impact them anywhere near as

1110
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:27,720
Speaker 4: much as the Oral ring, which I've been using for

1111
00:58:28,640 --> 00:58:32,840
Speaker 4: several years at this point, well since the Genrey came out.

1112
00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:36,800
Speaker 4: It's really fascinating that they launched Ring and Watch together

1113
00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:40,320
Speaker 4: and they want you to use both. I've been using

1114
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:42,240
Speaker 4: the Galaxy Watch Altra for a couple of weeks and

1115
00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:47,240
Speaker 4: it's basically the most premium watch for Android users that

1116
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 4: there's ever kind of ever been. I've done things like

1117
00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:51,640
Speaker 4: looked at with things and stuff, but they're not true

1118
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:55,200
Speaker 4: smart watches. This is a true smart watch if you

1119
00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:57,520
Speaker 4: can get past the orange band, which I'm not a

1120
00:58:57,520 --> 00:58:59,920
Speaker 4: fan of. You know, there's plenty of other band choices out.

1121
00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:03,200
Speaker 4: The Ring for me is the super interesting one. Like

1122
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,880
Speaker 4: I know a lot of people who are traditionalists. They

1123
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:10,800
Speaker 4: want that analog watch. They don't like these big displays

1124
00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:13,240
Speaker 4: on their wrists. But what they really want is still

1125
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:16,440
Speaker 4: some of the heart benefits. That's where hybrid smart watches

1126
00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:21,280
Speaker 4: come in. But even they don't compare to any number

1127
00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:25,160
Speaker 4: of brands that are like that put style into the

1128
00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:27,480
Speaker 4: time piece, and it's really hard to do that in

1129
00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:28,240
Speaker 4: a smart watch.

1130
00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:28,919
Speaker 11: Here.

1131
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:30,720
Speaker 4: If you're one of those people where you want the

1132
00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:35,000
Speaker 4: health benefits, that's what the Ring does. And I there's

1133
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:36,840
Speaker 4: only been a couple of days, but what really comes

1134
00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:40,400
Speaker 4: to mind is I like their energy scores. That gives

1135
00:59:40,440 --> 00:59:42,640
Speaker 4: you just a it gives you a number to go,

1136
00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:46,440
Speaker 4: combining your sleep, your activity, and all of those things

1137
00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:49,640
Speaker 4: together to go, this is how recovered and ready you

1138
00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:53,680
Speaker 4: are for the day. Well that what I've already found

1139
00:59:53,800 --> 00:59:55,160
Speaker 4: is my first couple of days have been in the

1140
00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:58,800
Speaker 4: sixties because I'm not sleeping well, well, okay, I need

1141
00:59:58,840 --> 01:00:01,880
Speaker 4: to make sure that tomorrow is one percent better. And

1142
01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:04,919
Speaker 4: if you just aim for one percent better every single day,

1143
01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:07,280
Speaker 4: it only takes one hundred days three and a half

1144
01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:11,320
Speaker 4: months to see real progress in your sleep. And with

1145
01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:13,520
Speaker 4: the Galaxy Ring, based on the sleep report that I've

1146
01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:17,560
Speaker 4: kind of been sharing, they are really really detailed. They're

1147
01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:20,480
Speaker 4: super detail. They give you everything from your sleep stages

1148
01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:25,120
Speaker 4: to sleep stages. It gives you your resting heart rate,

1149
01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:28,439
Speaker 4: your heart rate variability, which is really really important. Higher

1150
01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:30,920
Speaker 4: the number, the better there and it gives you this

1151
01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:35,720
Speaker 4: super and a key profile of what's happening with your

1152
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:39,880
Speaker 4: body while you're asleep. Unlike other rings, what I really

1153
01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:41,959
Speaker 4: like is as well, is it a one of cost.

1154
01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:45,200
Speaker 4: There is no subscription right now.

1155
01:00:46,560 --> 01:00:49,800
Speaker 2: A charge. They're like a couple bucks a month, right.

1156
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:55,080
Speaker 4: Think about six or seven dollars now. I have Lifetime

1157
01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:59,200
Speaker 4: because I was a Gen two user, but that doesn't

1158
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:03,680
Speaker 4: I think, forgive that you're paying three hundred dollars and

1159
01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:05,960
Speaker 4: then you're paying six dollars a month. I used to

1160
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:09,600
Speaker 4: be a woop band user and that meant paying three

1161
01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:11,200
Speaker 4: hundred dollars a year, and as soon as I stop

1162
01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:14,040
Speaker 4: paying for it, I lost access to a hardware and

1163
01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:17,680
Speaker 4: your other old data. So Samson can afford to do

1164
01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:19,560
Speaker 4: all of this. And I've been a massive fan of

1165
01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:23,200
Speaker 4: something Health for a while, specifically sleep. I think it's

1166
01:01:23,240 --> 01:01:25,960
Speaker 4: fascinating to sleep because everyone else gives you a lot

1167
01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:30,000
Speaker 4: of data. But Samson Health is super key because it

1168
01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:34,240
Speaker 4: really makes it simple enough for anyone to understand what

1169
01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:38,160
Speaker 4: a metric means, what factors can cause a lower than

1170
01:01:38,320 --> 01:01:41,560
Speaker 4: ideal score, and what kind of your goal should be.

1171
01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:45,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it is all presented in a very straightforward way.

1172
01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:48,600
Speaker 1: There's been some talk about, by the way, the battery

1173
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:52,040
Speaker 1: for the ring lasts they say up to seven days.

1174
01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:54,320
Speaker 1: I think the battery is a champ on this thing,

1175
01:01:54,480 --> 01:01:58,640
Speaker 1: and it's it's been really good for me in my testing. Obviously,

1176
01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:01,000
Speaker 1: things can vary depending on how you use it. I

1177
01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:03,600
Speaker 1: do feel sometimes sometimes at night, I do feel a

1178
01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:05,600
Speaker 1: little stressed out wearing the ring because I feel like

1179
01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:08,640
Speaker 1: I'm being graded. So I think for some people that

1180
01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:10,760
Speaker 1: may come into effect. Maybe I'm unique in that because

1181
01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:12,000
Speaker 1: I do know a lot of people that wear these

1182
01:02:12,080 --> 01:02:14,080
Speaker 1: rings and they don't feel that way, but I personally

1183
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:16,000
Speaker 1: do like I'm like, oh gosh, if I if I

1184
01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:18,160
Speaker 1: toss and turn, it's going to ruin my score. And

1185
01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:20,960
Speaker 1: so sometimes I'll like, I'll take the ring off when

1186
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:25,040
Speaker 1: I sleep because I'm just worried about that. What what uh?

1187
01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:29,440
Speaker 1: What's your guidance on this versus? So I think if you.

1188
01:02:31,640 --> 01:02:35,520
Speaker 4: I think any losing doing anything, and I when I

1189
01:02:35,560 --> 01:02:37,760
Speaker 4: you know, I was fortunate in that I would medically

1190
01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:41,880
Speaker 4: forced to get on a treadmill and exercise. But for

1191
01:02:41,920 --> 01:02:44,520
Speaker 4: a good couple of months of my four months we

1192
01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:47,560
Speaker 4: had I was doing that at home and it became

1193
01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:52,320
Speaker 4: challenging and I lost motivation definitely. But you've got to

1194
01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:55,640
Speaker 4: be I think, to improve your health in any way,

1195
01:02:55,720 --> 01:02:59,920
Speaker 4: in using any metric, you have to be okay with

1196
01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:03,560
Speaker 4: the fact that life is a there's peaks and troughs,

1197
01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:08,440
Speaker 4: You're never perfect. Don't judge yourself because generally your worst

1198
01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:11,120
Speaker 4: enemy when it comes to losing weight or getting healthy

1199
01:03:11,160 --> 01:03:15,520
Speaker 4: in any way is your own perception of yourself and

1200
01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:18,439
Speaker 4: if you're if you perceive yourself a certain way, you'll

1201
01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:21,000
Speaker 4: never be happy with the small winds that you see.

1202
01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:25,720
Speaker 4: If you're sleep just went from saying sixty percent and

1203
01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:28,640
Speaker 4: your score is sixty and you had a day when

1204
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:33,440
Speaker 4: it's a ninety, that means, you know, just take that

1205
01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:36,440
Speaker 4: for a win, because that's what it is, and recognize

1206
01:03:36,440 --> 01:03:39,160
Speaker 4: that that is a day when you're like, Okay, I'm

1207
01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:41,160
Speaker 4: really going to make the most of this day. Whereas

1208
01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:43,840
Speaker 4: if you push too hard when you're having days forties

1209
01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:47,920
Speaker 4: and fifties, that's a way of technology telling you your

1210
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 4: body needs to slow down and you need a break

1211
01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:53,320
Speaker 4: and you need a rest. When I've taken a nap

1212
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:55,840
Speaker 4: during the day an hour or two, that can really

1213
01:03:55,960 --> 01:04:00,320
Speaker 4: help boost your overall energy feeling and help low yah

1214
01:04:00,520 --> 01:04:01,080
Speaker 4: right as well.

1215
01:04:01,440 --> 01:04:04,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's things that we sort of know, and

1216
01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:06,240
Speaker 1: we know when we're pushing our bodies to the limit,

1217
01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:07,840
Speaker 1: and we know when we're tired, and we know when

1218
01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:11,840
Speaker 1: we should be you know, nourishing our mind and soul more,

1219
01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:15,120
Speaker 1: and sometimes we just ignore that. But these wearables are

1220
01:04:15,160 --> 01:04:18,959
Speaker 1: starting to give us the real hard data that tells us, hey, look,

1221
01:04:19,040 --> 01:04:21,000
Speaker 1: this is really happening, and you do need to take

1222

Speaker 2: Oh there's so much.

Speaker 1: Let's get to Elizabeth and Rancho Mirage. Elizabeth, thanks for

1242
01:05:18,960 --> 01:05:21,280
Speaker 1: the patience. I know you've been on hold for a while.

1243
01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:22,640
Speaker 1: Welcome to the.

1244
01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:27,640
Speaker 10: Show, Hi, Rich, Thank you. I'm really excited to connect

1245
01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:31,000
Speaker 10: with you. I love speaking with intelligent people because I

1246
01:05:31,080 --> 01:05:33,680
Speaker 10: learned things and that's what I want to do today.

1247
01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:34,920
Speaker 2: Well, why are you calling me?

1248
01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:41,720
Speaker 10: Sure? Listen. I haven't had television for like forty years,

1249
01:05:41,800 --> 01:05:45,080
Speaker 10: so my computer's kind of my lifeline. And I don't

1250
01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:48,320
Speaker 10: have a cell phone, mostly for economical reasons, so the

1251
01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:51,440
Speaker 10: sky is not the limit. But I try to find

1252
01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:55,440
Speaker 10: a happy medium and size and weight and all these things.

1253
01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:58,360
Speaker 10: I have a couple things for a laptop that are

1254
01:05:58,640 --> 01:06:02,560
Speaker 10: deal killers, like I cannot my brain just will not

1255
01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:06,960
Speaker 10: adapt to a numeric keypad next to my regular keyboard.

1256
01:06:07,680 --> 01:06:12,360
Speaker 10: And everything seems to be touch screen. And yet I

1257
01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:16,240
Speaker 10: read things that say touch screens never went over well,

1258
01:06:16,360 --> 01:06:18,720
Speaker 10: but that seems to be the wave of the future.

1259
01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:24,360
Speaker 10: And I like my uses. I'm disabled. I'll be seventy

1260
01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:26,200
Speaker 10: six before the end of the year, but I still

1261
01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:29,880
Speaker 10: have a great brain, and so I really I'm very

1262
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:34,440
Speaker 10: active online and I want to be able to do

1263
01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:38,000
Speaker 10: the things I want to do with comfort. And I

1264
01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:41,480
Speaker 10: do spend some time in bed so that using my

1265
01:06:41,640 --> 01:06:44,480
Speaker 10: hands to the left, if you will, with the numeric

1266
01:06:44,560 --> 01:06:47,959
Speaker 10: pad there, my brain just will not adjust. I keep

1267
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:52,800
Speaker 10: mistyping and it just makes me crazy. And I looked

1268
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:55,560
Speaker 10: and looked and did some research, went into costco, spend

1269
01:06:55,560 --> 01:06:59,080
Speaker 10: a couple of hours, made charts and process of elimination

1270
01:06:59,240 --> 01:07:02,440
Speaker 10: for this one, no one, And I originally said, I know.

1271
01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:05,480
Speaker 10: Usually the first thing you asked is what's your price point?

1272
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:05,959
Speaker 4: Yep.

1273
01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:09,400
Speaker 10: So I was looking between four or five hundred dollars,

1274
01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:11,600
Speaker 10: which is still a lot of money for me. However,

1275
01:07:12,360 --> 01:07:15,160
Speaker 10: when I started looking at Costco, and I really want

1276
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:18,240
Speaker 10: to buy from Costco because they have the protection and

1277
01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:21,560
Speaker 10: the tech support, and Costco is always really great with

1278
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:25,880
Speaker 10: whom to deal. Absolutely, yeah, And so when they have

1279
01:07:25,920 --> 01:07:28,440
Speaker 10: one hundred and fifty off, one hundred off, two hundred off,

1280
01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:32,680
Speaker 10: it's like I can kind of inch my price point

1281
01:07:32,880 --> 01:07:36,680
Speaker 10: up because I'm going to get like four hundred dollars

1282
01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:40,360
Speaker 10: worth more of value for maybe spending two hundred more.

1283
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:44,280
Speaker 1: Absolutely, that's the way Costco they always They always give

1284
01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:46,600
Speaker 1: you a little extra for the same money you might

1285
01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:48,440
Speaker 1: pay at a at a big box store.

1286
01:07:48,840 --> 01:07:50,880
Speaker 2: So, right, and how can I help?

1287
01:07:51,640 --> 01:07:53,919
Speaker 10: Well, you can probably tell you know, I've done lots

1288
01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:59,960
Speaker 10: of research, but search engines on websites are for stone,

1289
01:08:00,160 --> 01:08:03,960
Speaker 10: because you know, I don't want to touch screen unless

1290
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:06,320
Speaker 10: you can tell me something about touch screens, of which

1291
01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:10,200
Speaker 10: I'm unaware. I like a conventional traditional Now I read

1292
01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:16,280
Speaker 10: about mechanical keyboards and It's like, I just can't figure

1293
01:08:16,320 --> 01:08:17,640
Speaker 10: that one out quite.

1294
01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:19,479
Speaker 1: So are you looking for a Mac or a PC?

1295
01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:22,160
Speaker 1: What about a tablet? What about an iPad?

1296
01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:30,080
Speaker 10: I have a tablet. It's really kind of small for me.

1297
01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:33,559
Speaker 10: You know, it's convenient to sit at the throne and

1298
01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:34,360
Speaker 10: watch YouTube.

1299
01:08:34,439 --> 01:08:37,640
Speaker 2: But that's about it. I think the best computer for

1300
01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:38,960
Speaker 2: you to get would be the MacBook Air.

1301
01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:42,400
Speaker 1: I really do, and I can't afford it. Well, okay,

1302
01:08:42,479 --> 01:08:47,160
Speaker 1: so there that is tough. There is a MacBook Air

1303
01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:51,040
Speaker 1: deal that has been going around and it's gotten Actually

1304
01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:53,760
Speaker 1: it was down really really cheap through best Buy for

1305
01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:58,360
Speaker 1: a while, but you can get a refurbished one. But really,

1306
01:08:58,439 --> 01:09:01,320
Speaker 1: the MacBook Air that you want is one version, which

1307
01:09:01,360 --> 01:09:05,360
Speaker 1: is the minimum I would get for that device, and

1308
01:09:05,400 --> 01:09:08,519
Speaker 1: I've seen it as cheap as I think six fifty.

1309
01:09:09,040 --> 01:09:12,719
Speaker 1: There's actually a renewed one at best Buy it sound clearance.

1310
01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:16,240
Speaker 1: It looks like it's just under six hundred bucks. That's

1311
01:09:16,439 --> 01:09:18,640
Speaker 1: that's a refurbished model. But I know you want to

1312
01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:21,559
Speaker 1: buy at cost, go so if you can't, look if

1313
01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:24,479
Speaker 1: you can't afford that, which I totally understand it. But

1314
01:09:25,320 --> 01:09:27,080
Speaker 1: the thing is you're going to spend five hundred on

1315
01:09:27,120 --> 01:09:29,519
Speaker 1: a Windows computer, and I'm not sure it's going to

1316
01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:32,200
Speaker 1: last you the same amount of time as the seven

1317
01:09:32,280 --> 01:09:34,559
Speaker 1: hundred you spend on the on the MacBook Air.

1318
01:09:34,880 --> 01:09:38,240
Speaker 10: So now I had bumped myself up to six forty nine,

1319
01:09:38,280 --> 01:09:40,639
Speaker 10: which was either one hundred and fifty or two hundred

1320
01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:44,640
Speaker 10: off at Costco. But then I was finding features that

1321
01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,680
Speaker 10: interfered with You know, I just have deal breakers and

1322
01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:51,160
Speaker 10: one as the numeric keypad.

1323
01:09:50,760 --> 01:09:53,559
Speaker 1: And I'd go with the I'd go with the MacBook Air.

1324
01:09:53,680 --> 01:09:56,200
Speaker 1: Walmart's got it for six hundred and forty nine dollars

1325
01:09:56,240 --> 01:09:58,200
Speaker 1: if you can afford that. I think that that's going

1326
01:09:58,280 --> 01:10:01,240
Speaker 1: to last you a couple I think it's going to

1327
01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:03,559
Speaker 1: be no fuss. I think it's going to be simple.

1328
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:07,240
Speaker 2: I know it. You know, do you have a computer

1329
01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:07,920
Speaker 2: currently or no?

1330
01:10:08,880 --> 01:10:12,320
Speaker 10: Yeah, but I have a laptop and the Chromebook and

1331
01:10:12,360 --> 01:10:15,040
Speaker 10: they've posted under hash this care for most of this

1332
01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:19,080
Speaker 10: year with the fan went out on the laptop.

1333
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:21,640
Speaker 1: And see that's what I'm saying, all these issues and

1334
01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:26,200
Speaker 1: I've had MacBooks for years. I'm not kidding when I

1335
01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:28,719
Speaker 1: tell you, Elizabeth that I gave my dad. I always

1336
01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:31,559
Speaker 1: give someone else in my family my laptop when I'm

1337
01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:34,839
Speaker 1: done with it, and my dad is using my laptop.

1338
01:10:34,920 --> 01:10:35,560
Speaker 2: I'm telling you.

1339
01:10:35,640 --> 01:10:37,960
Speaker 1: Last I checked, I think it was eleven years old,

1340
01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:42,439
Speaker 1: so and it's still working just fine. And so you know,

1341
01:10:42,479 --> 01:10:44,719
Speaker 1: the software is not supported anymore, which is a problem

1342
01:10:44,760 --> 01:10:47,160
Speaker 1: for security. But my point is, I think I think

1343
01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:51,679
Speaker 1: this Apple write this down, Apple MacBook Air, the M one.

1344
01:10:52,280 --> 01:10:54,719
Speaker 1: Walmart's got it for six forty nine. If you watch

1345
01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:57,439
Speaker 1: the sales over the next month, you may be able

1346
01:10:57,439 --> 01:10:59,680
Speaker 1: to get that for five ninety nine because a lot

1347
01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:03,320
Speaker 1: of these retailers have been having competitive back to school sales.

1348
01:11:05,040 --> 01:11:06,880
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be your best bet. It's gonna

1349
01:11:06,880 --> 01:11:08,799
Speaker 1: be a great computer. It's gonna do all the stuff

1350
01:11:08,840 --> 01:11:11,760
Speaker 1: you need. It's gonna be simple. If you don't want that,

1351
01:11:12,720 --> 01:11:16,160
Speaker 1: you know there are other devices. Wirecutter keeps a list

1352
01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:19,559
Speaker 1: of the best laptops under five hundred dollars. I would

1353
01:11:19,560 --> 01:11:21,639
Speaker 1: not get a Chromebook because I just don't think those

1354
01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:23,840
Speaker 1: are going to be that good. But the uh their

1355
01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:28,320
Speaker 1: top is the Acer Aspire three, which you know is

1356
01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:30,840
Speaker 1: going to be decent, but it does have a touch screen,

1357
01:11:30,880 --> 01:11:33,880
Speaker 1: which I know you don't want. So I would check

1358
01:11:33,880 --> 01:11:38,320
Speaker 1: out those that list as well. But I think this

1359
01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:41,040
Speaker 1: this MacBook M one. It's a little bit old, but

1360
01:11:41,160 --> 01:11:43,360
Speaker 1: if you can steer yourself towards that, I think that's

1361
01:11:43,400 --> 01:11:46,559
Speaker 1: gonna be a great, great solution for you. Thanks for

1362
01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:49,439
Speaker 1: the call, Elizabeth and Rancho Mirage. Hope you're staying cool

Speaker 1: he's going to talk about that, plus some ways to

1384
01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:09,240
Speaker 1: upgrade your smartphone photo and video capture. If you get

1385
01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:14,640
Speaker 1: an email from the Social Security Administration, it is legitimate

1386
01:13:14,840 --> 01:13:17,479
Speaker 1: most likely. I say most likely because yes, they have

1387
01:13:17,640 --> 01:13:21,519
Speaker 1: sent out emails to people notifying them of some important

1388
01:13:21,560 --> 01:13:25,400
Speaker 1: account changes. But of course scammers will capitalize on this,

1389
01:13:25,479 --> 01:13:29,360
Speaker 1: so be very careful. This is for anyone who signed

1390
01:13:29,439 --> 01:13:33,919
Speaker 1: up for a Social Security online account before September eighteenth,

1391
01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:37,240
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. You need to transition away from the

1392
01:13:37,360 --> 01:13:42,320
Speaker 1: mysocial security login to what's called login dot gov credentials.

1393
01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:44,640
Speaker 1: So if you get an email that says, hey, the

1394
01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:47,080
Speaker 1: way you log in is changing, yes it is real.

1395
01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:52,759
Speaker 1: This is to align the log in with federal authentication standards.

1396
01:13:52,760 --> 01:13:56,400
Speaker 1: So basically they're upgrading the security of this. And the

1397
01:13:56,439 --> 01:13:59,559
Speaker 1: way to do it is you go to your account

1398
01:13:59,560 --> 01:14:02,200
Speaker 1: that you will already have you log in and it

1399
01:14:02,200 --> 01:14:04,080
Speaker 1: will say, hey, we need to upgrade you to the

1400
01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:06,479
Speaker 1: login dot gov credentials. And I'm not sure what that

1401
01:14:06,520 --> 01:14:08,360
Speaker 1: process looks like what you have to do to sign

1402
01:14:08,439 --> 01:14:10,760
Speaker 1: up with the new log in, but that's what the

1403
01:14:10,880 --> 01:14:14,519
Speaker 1: process is like, do not click any links in any

1404
01:14:14,560 --> 01:14:16,679
Speaker 1: email saying hey, let's upgrade your account.

1405
01:14:16,720 --> 01:14:17,360
Speaker 2: Do not do that.

1406
01:14:17,960 --> 01:14:23,240
Speaker 1: Go to the website itself. It's SSA. Dot gov is

1407
01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:26,080
Speaker 1: the website. If you have a log in, you can

1408
01:14:26,120 --> 01:14:30,280
Speaker 1: log in there and it will then proceed to show

1409
01:14:30,320 --> 01:14:32,880
Speaker 1: you how to change your log into the new, upgraded one.

1410
01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:35,519
Speaker 1: So if you signed up in the last three years

1411
01:14:35,600 --> 01:14:39,000
Speaker 1: or so, you're fine, But anytime before September eighteenth, twenty

1412
01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:41,160
Speaker 1: twenty one, you will need to transition to this new

1413
01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:45,799
Speaker 1: what's called login dot gov. You know, obviously social security

1414
01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:49,880
Speaker 1: is a I'm sure there's many many scams floating around

1415
01:14:49,920 --> 01:14:52,320
Speaker 1: about social security, but this email is not one of them.

1416
01:14:52,439 --> 01:14:56,920
Speaker 1: Just be careful. Though, Apple Maps is launching on the web.

1417
01:14:57,720 --> 01:15:00,280
Speaker 1: You can now look at Apple Maps on the web.

1418
01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:04,520
Speaker 1: It is at beta dot maps dot Apple dot com.

1419
01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:07,200
Speaker 1: You can use it on Windows computers. You can use

1420
01:15:07,240 --> 01:15:10,720
Speaker 1: it on Mac computers. You can use it on the iPad.

1421
01:15:11,160 --> 01:15:13,800
Speaker 1: You cannot use it on Android. If you try to

1422
01:15:13,840 --> 01:15:15,840
Speaker 1: go to that website from an Android phone, it will

1423
01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:19,519
Speaker 1: say sorry, not support it. That sounds like a typical

1424
01:15:19,600 --> 01:15:23,320
Speaker 1: Apple move. I'm not sure why they don't support it

1425
01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:27,479
Speaker 1: on Android. Well, I kind of know why, but it's

1426
01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:29,800
Speaker 1: kind of that. I mean, look, Apple Maps launched ten

1427
01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:35,160
Speaker 1: years ago to basically one criticism. Nobody thought it was good,

1428
01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:37,240
Speaker 1: including Apple. They just kind of put it out there

1429
01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:39,599
Speaker 1: and it was just like, Okay, we got this, and

1430
01:15:39,840 --> 01:15:42,080
Speaker 1: it's just they wanted to make this thing, but they

1431
01:15:42,160 --> 01:15:45,280
Speaker 1: just didn't do it very well. Now it's actually quite good.

1432
01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:48,320
Speaker 1: I still don't rely on it as I would Apple

1433
01:15:48,560 --> 01:15:52,200
Speaker 1: Google Maps, but it's beautiful. It's got a lot of information.

1434
01:15:53,120 --> 01:15:56,479
Speaker 1: I think it looks better than Apple map or let

1435
01:15:56,479 --> 01:15:57,240
Speaker 1: me start over here.

1436
01:15:57,280 --> 01:15:58,920
Speaker 2: I keep switching these things.

1437
01:15:59,120 --> 01:16:02,519
Speaker 1: I think that Apple mapps looks more beautiful than Google Maps.

1438
01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:06,400
Speaker 1: I think Google Maps has better information, better traffic information,

1439
01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:11,120
Speaker 1: better routing information, more points of interest, more data. But

1440
01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:14,559
Speaker 1: Apple maps is still beautiful. It does the trick I

1441
01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:18,320
Speaker 1: think for walking directions, it's really good. They've got guides,

1442
01:16:18,400 --> 01:16:20,439
Speaker 1: you can search pretty much. The website lets you do

1443
01:16:20,479 --> 01:16:22,759
Speaker 1: a lot of the things you could do on the phone. Again,

1444
01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:25,679
Speaker 1: this is beta, and beta, by the way, is code

1445
01:16:25,680 --> 01:16:28,400
Speaker 1: for we're not sure if this works one hundred percent,

1446
01:16:28,439 --> 01:16:30,479
Speaker 1: but we're putting it out there, and so we just

1447
01:16:30,520 --> 01:16:32,599
Speaker 1: put that beta name on it, so if anything goes wrong,

1448
01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:36,720
Speaker 1: don't blame us. It's beta. That's pretty much shit. Can

1449
01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:39,160
Speaker 1: you imagine if marriages were beta? Hey, this is just

1450
01:16:39,200 --> 01:16:41,760
Speaker 1: in beta. You know. If something goes wrong, you know, Look,

1451
01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:44,120
Speaker 1: it's in beta. I can't help it, you know, it's

1452
01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:50,200
Speaker 1: just it's in beta. Tech companies love beta because it

1453
01:16:50,240 --> 01:16:51,880
Speaker 1: protects them if anything goes wrong.

1454
01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:54,640
Speaker 2: It's like, sorry, this is beta. We warned you.

1455
01:16:55,360 --> 01:16:58,720
Speaker 1: So anyway, applemaps beta dot maps dot Apple dot com

1456
01:16:58,760 --> 01:16:59,559
Speaker 1: if you want to check it out.

1457
01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:05,560
Speaker 2: It is pretty Let's go to Jim in Portland, Oregon. Jim,

1458
01:17:05,640 --> 01:17:08,559
Speaker 2: Welcome to the show, all rich, good to talk to you.

1459
01:17:08,720 --> 01:17:09,479
Speaker 2: Good to talk to you.

1460
01:17:09,520 --> 01:17:13,200
Speaker 6: I have a two full question for you. I don't

1461
01:17:13,240 --> 01:17:16,040
Speaker 6: know if it's the phone or the phone company, so

1462
01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:19,880
Speaker 6: I will tell you that I am blind. I have

1463
01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:24,400
Speaker 6: a fifteen Pro iPhone fifteen Pro and there are times,

1464
01:17:24,479 --> 01:17:28,880
Speaker 6: especially when I'm outdoors, going places or doing things, that

1465
01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:34,639
Speaker 6: I use a service where someone else can get note

1466
01:17:34,640 --> 01:17:40,240
Speaker 6: of my GPS and communicate with me via video. Before

1467
01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:43,160
Speaker 6: I moved to Portland, I never had any issues whatsoever.

1468
01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:46,200
Speaker 6: And here over the past few months, I've had the

1469
01:17:46,280 --> 01:17:51,280
Speaker 6: issues of connect things dropping all the time, videos freezing, audio,

1470
01:17:51,320 --> 01:17:56,639
Speaker 6: freezing connections, just dropping with especially the service or another one.

1471
01:17:57,400 --> 01:18:02,200
Speaker 6: I'm wondering number one, if it is my phone, although

1472
01:18:02,200 --> 01:18:04,320
Speaker 6: it's a fifteen pro, so I don't know what it

1473
01:18:04,360 --> 01:18:06,920
Speaker 6: would have been. I don't have any other issues with

1474
01:18:06,960 --> 01:18:10,880
Speaker 6: the phone itself, especially on Wi Fi. And number two.

1475
01:18:11,640 --> 01:18:15,040
Speaker 6: People have said maybe it's time to switch phone companies,

1476
01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:18,240
Speaker 6: which I've been with AT and T for Josh since

1477
01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:21,200
Speaker 6: at least two thousand and nine. But I just noticed

1478
01:18:21,240 --> 01:18:24,400
Speaker 6: that the signal here is less than what I remember

1479
01:18:24,760 --> 01:18:28,719
Speaker 6: where I lived before, and now that I am looking

1480
01:18:28,760 --> 01:18:32,200
Speaker 6: at switching phone companies if I need to what so

1481
01:18:32,280 --> 01:18:34,759
Speaker 6: I need to look for what are some good things?

1482
01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:37,280
Speaker 6: And is it better to go with the big guys

1483
01:18:37,479 --> 01:18:43,080
Speaker 6: or with one of the smaller people that borrow satellites

1484
01:18:43,240 --> 01:18:46,120
Speaker 6: or borrow from the phone company.

1485
01:18:46,240 --> 01:18:47,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, good question.

1486
01:18:47,160 --> 01:18:50,440
Speaker 1: So I think Number one, you're in the Pacific Northwest,

1487
01:18:50,520 --> 01:18:55,880
Speaker 1: which is that was primarily a T Mobile area back

1488
01:18:55,880 --> 01:18:58,160
Speaker 1: in the day because that's where T Mobile was headquartered,

1489
01:18:58,240 --> 01:19:05,679
Speaker 1: I believe, just out Seattle, just out side Seattle. So yeah,

1490
01:19:05,680 --> 01:19:07,760
Speaker 1: and that's the thing I mean, look, with all of

1491
01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:11,040
Speaker 1: these companies, it really depends on where you are where

1492
01:19:11,080 --> 01:19:11,599
Speaker 1: you're going.

1493
01:19:12,160 --> 01:19:12,400
Speaker 2: Uh.

1494
01:19:12,439 --> 01:19:14,600
Speaker 1: In general, I would say if we're just doing like

1495
01:19:14,720 --> 01:19:18,240
Speaker 1: broad general kind of like characteristics of these companies. I

1496
01:19:18,240 --> 01:19:22,439
Speaker 1: would say that Verizon is really good in like rural

1497
01:19:22,479 --> 01:19:25,080
Speaker 1: areas because they had very strong service in a lot

1498
01:19:25,120 --> 01:19:28,120
Speaker 1: of places. I think that T Mobile was very strong

1499
01:19:28,200 --> 01:19:31,080
Speaker 1: in city centers, and I think AT and T is

1500
01:19:31,160 --> 01:19:33,200
Speaker 1: kind of like in the middle. They're just pretty much

1501
01:19:33,240 --> 01:19:37,240
Speaker 1: good everywhere, but maybe not the best in rural maybe

1502
01:19:37,320 --> 01:19:39,439
Speaker 1: not the best in city centers, depending on how much

1503
01:19:39,560 --> 01:19:42,479
Speaker 1: you know, uh cellular traffic and things are going on.

1504
01:19:42,600 --> 01:19:45,880
Speaker 1: So but again, all of this is highly localized to

1505
01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:47,960
Speaker 1: the city and area that you're in. So what I

1506
01:19:48,000 --> 01:19:52,439
Speaker 1: tell people is find a a cell company that works

1507
01:19:52,479 --> 01:19:55,920
Speaker 1: where you work and where you live, and of course

1508
01:19:56,000 --> 01:19:58,519
Speaker 1: you know where you're doing things. So for instance, uh,

1509
01:19:58,560 --> 01:20:00,920
Speaker 1: here in Los Angeles, if you live in the hills

1510
01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:03,920
Speaker 1: any to any kind of mountain area, you know, there's

1511
01:20:03,920 --> 01:20:06,599
Speaker 1: only certain providers that work up there, and people that

1512
01:20:06,680 --> 01:20:09,439
Speaker 1: live in those neighborhoods tell each other like, hey, you know,

1513
01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:13,080
Speaker 1: Sprint works here back when Sprint was a thing, you know,

1514
01:20:13,200 --> 01:20:15,640
Speaker 1: or T Mobile, right, T Mobile works in this neighborhood,

1515
01:20:15,640 --> 01:20:21,280
Speaker 1: So people gravitate towards those those services. So there is

1516
01:20:21,320 --> 01:20:23,880
Speaker 1: an FCC map that you can look at. That's not

1517
01:20:24,040 --> 01:20:26,000
Speaker 1: it's not really kept up anymore, but you might be

1518
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:28,559
Speaker 1: able to get some information on there if you go

1519
01:20:28,600 --> 01:20:33,679
Speaker 1: to FCC dot gov slash Broadband Data. Oukla is another

1520
01:20:33,720 --> 01:20:38,599
Speaker 1: one that keeps some maps there. Oh ok La, you

1521
01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:43,040
Speaker 1: can look up there. They're testing maps as well for mobile,

1522
01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:45,720
Speaker 1: and then there's one called root Metrics. They have it

1523
01:20:45,800 --> 01:20:48,000
Speaker 1: and then sell mapp or. I know I said those

1524
01:20:48,040 --> 01:20:49,920
Speaker 1: really fast, but I'll link them up on the website.

1525
01:20:50,080 --> 01:20:51,640
Speaker 1: But really, what I think you need to do is

1526
01:20:51,720 --> 01:20:54,679
Speaker 1: just talk to some people that are in the area

1527
01:20:54,720 --> 01:20:58,120
Speaker 1: and say, hey, what works best here? And it may

1528
01:20:58,400 --> 01:20:59,840
Speaker 1: may be in your case that AT and T is

1529
01:20:59,840 --> 01:21:02,960
Speaker 1: not the best. Maybe T Mobile is the best. To

1530
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:06,920
Speaker 1: answer the second part of your question, the mv and

1531
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:11,800
Speaker 1: os versus the main company, So in general, the mv

1532
01:21:11,880 --> 01:21:14,840
Speaker 1: and os they rent the service from the main company.

1533
01:21:14,920 --> 01:21:17,799
Speaker 1: So there's only really I think there's a fourth network

1534
01:21:17,840 --> 01:21:20,120
Speaker 1: at this point. I think Dish Network is building some

1535
01:21:20,160 --> 01:21:22,920
Speaker 1: sort of network here in America as well, but I

1536
01:21:22,960 --> 01:21:25,240
Speaker 1: don't think it's ready in like a big way just yet.

1537
01:21:25,240 --> 01:21:29,280
Speaker 1: But AT and T, Mobile and Verizon are the ones

1538
01:21:29,320 --> 01:21:31,840
Speaker 1: that operate the main networks. All the other companies kind

1539
01:21:31,840 --> 01:21:34,439
Speaker 1: of rent the space from them for the mv and o's,

1540
01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:37,960
Speaker 1: and I think really what the differentiator there is that,

1541
01:21:38,360 --> 01:21:42,160
Speaker 1: of course the companies own customers. Their first party customers

1542
01:21:42,200 --> 01:21:44,040
Speaker 1: are always going to have priority on the network.

1543
01:21:44,520 --> 01:21:45,760
Speaker 2: I think the way the mv and.

1544
01:21:45,800 --> 01:21:50,120
Speaker 1: O's prioritize is really with their customer service. So I

1545
01:21:50,160 --> 01:21:52,640
Speaker 1: think you're probably going to get the best service and

1546
01:21:52,760 --> 01:21:57,000
Speaker 1: signal from the first party, and I think the third party,

1547
01:21:57,040 --> 01:21:59,120
Speaker 1: you're going to get the best customer service because that's

1548
01:21:59,160 --> 01:22:03,640
Speaker 1: what they specialize, gotcha. So those are all kind of

1549
01:22:03,680 --> 01:22:06,240
Speaker 1: the ways, but realistically, like where I work in the

1550
01:22:06,280 --> 01:22:09,600
Speaker 1: building I work in versus you know, here in the

1551
01:22:09,600 --> 01:22:14,519
Speaker 1: studio versus my TV studio, completely different. I mean, you know,

1552
01:22:14,800 --> 01:22:17,759
Speaker 1: just the way that things work in the different buildings

1553
01:22:17,760 --> 01:22:20,360
Speaker 1: that people work in. It could be the makeup of

1554
01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:22,840
Speaker 1: the building, it could be your house. It's really really

1555
01:22:22,920 --> 01:22:25,559
Speaker 1: unique to kind of like where you go the most.

1556
01:22:25,920 --> 01:22:28,120
Speaker 6: And is there any kind of test to just make

1557
01:22:28,160 --> 01:22:31,599
Speaker 6: sure that there's nothing wrong with my phone for things

1558
01:22:31,600 --> 01:22:32,880
Speaker 6: like dropping connections or.

1559
01:22:33,720 --> 01:22:36,720
Speaker 1: You could do you have an Apple store in Portland? Yeah,

1560
01:22:36,760 --> 01:22:38,479
Speaker 1: I would take it there and ask them. I don't

1561
01:22:38,520 --> 01:22:41,720
Speaker 1: think there's a problem and the only think. So you know, now,

1562
01:22:41,760 --> 01:22:44,440
Speaker 1: I will say this. I will say, in my experience,

1563
01:22:44,560 --> 01:22:47,840
Speaker 1: the Samsung devices have a they pull in a much

1564
01:22:47,880 --> 01:22:51,000
Speaker 1: stronger signal than the Apple devices. I don't know why

1565
01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:54,360
Speaker 1: that is, but that's just what I've noticed, because I

1566
01:22:54,400 --> 01:22:56,360
Speaker 1: can be in my driveway at my house and my

1567
01:22:56,880 --> 01:23:01,320
Speaker 1: Samsung works perfectly and the Apple does not work as well. Yeah,

1568
01:23:01,360 --> 01:23:03,519
Speaker 1: and I've noticed in different places where the signal is

1569
01:23:03,600 --> 01:23:06,519
Speaker 1: kind of on the fringe, the Samsung does pull in

1570
01:23:06,520 --> 01:23:08,600
Speaker 1: a better signal a lot of the time. So but

1571
01:23:08,800 --> 01:23:11,400
Speaker 1: with that said, I mean many many people use iPhones

1572
01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:13,840
Speaker 1: and believe me, throwing it a signal that's just fine.

1573
01:23:14,560 --> 01:23:16,160
Speaker 1: But I would take it to the Apple store see

1574
01:23:16,200 --> 01:23:18,040
Speaker 1: if you can get a diagnostic run on it and

1575
01:23:18,080 --> 01:23:19,759
Speaker 1: just say, hey, look, you know, I'm having some trouble.

1576
01:23:20,200 --> 01:23:20,800
Speaker 2: And we had a.

1577
01:23:20,760 --> 01:23:23,479
Speaker 1: Caller earlier in the show and there was something that

1578
01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:26,160
Speaker 1: I mentioned to them. You can do a network settings.

1579
01:23:25,760 --> 01:23:28,839
Speaker 2: Reset, so I was afraid.

1580
01:23:29,360 --> 01:23:31,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look, it's it's really not that big

1581
01:23:31,920 --> 01:23:34,640
Speaker 1: of a deal. It's it's just resetting everything. It's just

1582
01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:37,280
Speaker 1: kind of like, you know, making sure everything's kind of

1583
01:23:37,320 --> 01:23:40,160
Speaker 1: factory reset, and then it starts over. If you want

1584
01:23:40,200 --> 01:23:42,280
Speaker 1: you can try that on your own gym and see

1585
01:23:42,280 --> 01:23:46,320
Speaker 1: if that helps. Good question. Got to have good cellular service.

1586
01:23:46,360 --> 01:23:48,679
Speaker 1: That is what we live and die by these days.

1587
01:23:48,680 --> 01:23:51,599
Speaker 1: So make sure you've got good service where you are.

1588
01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:55,600
Speaker 1: Check that signal, Ask friends do those speed tests. You

1589
01:23:55,760 --> 01:24:00,360
Speaker 1: are listening to Rich on tech. Welcome back to rich Tech.

1590
01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:04,680
Speaker 1: Rich Demiro here hanging out with you, talking technology. So

1591
01:24:04,840 --> 01:24:09,120
Speaker 1: I just wanted to continue on the cell phone signals

1592
01:24:09,160 --> 01:24:10,599
Speaker 1: because I know this's a big deal for a lot

1593
01:24:10,680 --> 01:24:13,160
Speaker 1: of people. They want to know what's best in their area.

1594
01:24:13,200 --> 01:24:14,760
Speaker 1: And I mentioned a few things off the top of

1595
01:24:14,760 --> 01:24:17,160
Speaker 1: my head, but I did some more research in the

1596
01:24:17,200 --> 01:24:19,479
Speaker 1: break and found the things that I wanted to mention,

1597
01:24:20,439 --> 01:24:22,519
Speaker 1: and so I'll go over those real quick, just so

1598
01:24:22,560 --> 01:24:25,200
Speaker 1: you have them. And I think these are pretty handy resources.

1599
01:24:26,080 --> 01:24:30,720
Speaker 1: So the first is root Metricsroot Metrics, and they do

1600
01:24:30,800 --> 01:24:33,559
Speaker 1: what's called a root score report, and so I looked

1601
01:24:33,640 --> 01:24:36,280
Speaker 1: up Portland, Oregon, which is where our caller was from,

1602
01:24:36,600 --> 01:24:40,400
Speaker 1: and it does rank the three networks based on how

1603
01:24:40,400 --> 01:24:42,640
Speaker 1: good they are overall. But then it also tells you

1604
01:24:43,160 --> 01:24:48,520
Speaker 1: overall performance, network reliability, accessibility, the speed, data performance, call performance,

1605
01:24:48,600 --> 01:24:54,559
Speaker 1: text performance, and video performance. And I think actually it's interesting.

1606
01:24:54,600 --> 01:24:57,400
Speaker 1: The carrier that he mentioned he was having problems with

1607
01:24:57,680 --> 01:25:01,120
Speaker 1: the video performance is not good according to this. So

1608
01:25:01,680 --> 01:25:04,439
Speaker 1: that's one of them root metrics, let's see. The other

1609
01:25:04,479 --> 01:25:09,240
Speaker 1: one is FCC National Broadband Map. I mentioned FCC had

1610
01:25:09,240 --> 01:25:11,000
Speaker 1: gotten rid of their old map down they have a

1611
01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:14,200
Speaker 1: new one so you can actually type in your address

1612
01:25:14,720 --> 01:25:18,760
Speaker 1: and it will tell you what signal other people have

1613
01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:21,120
Speaker 1: found there and which one is the best. So if

1614
01:25:21,160 --> 01:25:27,200
Speaker 1: I type in an address here, let's see, it will

1615
01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:29,160
Speaker 1: come up with that address and then you can actually

1616
01:25:29,240 --> 01:25:32,599
Speaker 1: see what the what other people have come up with

1617
01:25:32,600 --> 01:25:34,160
Speaker 1: with their tests. And they just come out with the

1618
01:25:34,200 --> 01:25:36,679
Speaker 1: new app as well to help you test your signal

1619
01:25:36,720 --> 01:25:39,960
Speaker 1: in different places, whether it's fixed broadband or mobile broadband.

1620
01:25:40,400 --> 01:25:43,200
Speaker 1: But that's another way of doing it, and it even

1621
01:25:43,240 --> 01:25:48,559
Speaker 1: says environment. You can choose from outdoor, indoor, in the vehicle.

1622
01:25:48,640 --> 01:25:52,720
Speaker 1: I mean, it's really pretty thorough. So again that's broadbandmap

1623
01:25:52,800 --> 01:25:57,200
Speaker 1: dot FCC dot gov. Open Signal is also another one

1624
01:25:57,200 --> 01:25:59,639
Speaker 1: of these companies that a lot of the big companies

1625
01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:03,000
Speaker 1: kind of you know, they get the information from them,

1626
01:26:03,400 --> 01:26:05,759
Speaker 1: so they hire them to come up with the data.

1627
01:26:05,840 --> 01:26:08,880
Speaker 1: But you can download their app on Google Play or

1628
01:26:09,240 --> 01:26:12,200
Speaker 1: on the app store and you can check the signal

1629
01:26:12,240 --> 01:26:15,080
Speaker 1: in your area as well coverage information. So that is

1630
01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:18,240
Speaker 1: open Signal and you can download that app on iOS

1631
01:26:18,320 --> 01:26:22,800
Speaker 1: or Android again Open Signal. And then finally the other

1632
01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:27,920
Speaker 1: one is a CoverageMap dot com, so CoverageMap dot com.

1633
01:26:27,960 --> 01:26:30,640
Speaker 1: I don't know where they get their information from. It

1634
01:26:30,680 --> 01:26:36,160
Speaker 1: may be crowdsourced. But again you can type in information

1635
01:26:36,479 --> 01:26:39,400
Speaker 1: or a street address in here. I'm just typing in

1636
01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:41,280
Speaker 1: one real quick. Let me just get this in here

1637
01:26:42,439 --> 01:26:45,200
Speaker 1: and so you can see what the let's see, how

1638
01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:46,759
Speaker 1: do you do zip code?

1639
01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:49,680
Speaker 2: Do you know how tough it is to type all

1640
01:26:49,680 --> 01:26:51,479
Speaker 2: you're talking on the radio. It's not easy.

1641
01:26:52,160 --> 01:26:54,040
Speaker 1: Okay, Yes, you type in the zip code and then

1642
01:26:54,040 --> 01:26:56,479
Speaker 1: it will tell you about the coverage in that zip code,

1643
01:26:56,840 --> 01:27:01,080
Speaker 1: and again it gives it from you know, the coverage data,

1644
01:27:01,120 --> 01:27:03,960
Speaker 1: speeds and reliability, and you can also check the coverage

1645
01:27:03,960 --> 01:27:06,920
Speaker 1: as well. Oh yeah, crowdsourced speed test map and also

1646
01:27:06,960 --> 01:27:09,960
Speaker 1: signal strength data from the FCC. So again a couple

1647
01:27:10,120 --> 01:27:14,320
Speaker 1: great resources there. Jim in Portland, thanks for the question.

1648
01:27:15,360 --> 01:27:17,439
Speaker 1: I will put this all on the website. Rich on

1649
01:27:17,479 --> 01:27:19,760
Speaker 1: tech dot tv. Hit the light bulb and then you

1650
01:27:19,760 --> 01:27:21,240
Speaker 1: should find the information there.

1651
01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:22,679
Speaker 2: So this was an.

1652
01:27:22,520 --> 01:27:26,560
Speaker 1: Interesting story this week. The cybersecurity firm that trains employees

1653
01:27:26,600 --> 01:27:29,120
Speaker 1: on how not to fall for phishing scams, well they

1654
01:27:29,160 --> 01:27:32,320
Speaker 1: fell for their own scam. The company is no before.

1655
01:27:32,360 --> 01:27:35,000
Speaker 1: We've actually had guests on this show from this company.

1656
01:27:35,000 --> 01:27:36,800
Speaker 1: They're not a bad company, it's just they fell for

1657
01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:39,719
Speaker 1: a trick like a lot of people do. They hired

1658
01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:42,160
Speaker 1: a remote software engineer who turned out to be a

1659
01:27:42,200 --> 01:27:46,720
Speaker 1: North Korean hacker. He used to stolen US identity and

1660
01:27:46,760 --> 01:27:51,920
Speaker 1: an ai an ai image that he generated of himself.

1661
01:27:51,920 --> 01:27:53,479
Speaker 1: And the way they figure this out was when they

1662
01:27:53,560 --> 01:27:57,559
Speaker 1: shipped them the company issued laptop. He started downloading malicious

1663
01:27:57,600 --> 01:27:59,960
Speaker 1: software on the laptop and they're like, wait a second,

1664
01:28:00,120 --> 01:28:04,599
Speaker 1: something's not right here. So they're lesson learned is if

1665
01:28:04,640 --> 01:28:07,880
Speaker 1: you're a company and you're hiring remote employees, you better

1666
01:28:07,920 --> 01:28:10,839
Speaker 1: be careful because people can fake a lot of information

1667
01:28:10,960 --> 01:28:12,880
Speaker 1: these days. And so you don't want to be taken

1668
01:28:12,880 --> 01:28:15,160
Speaker 1: in that because he didn't do any real damage, they said,

1669
01:28:15,479 --> 01:28:17,200
Speaker 1: but you know, could be bad if he gets in

1670
01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:22,840
Speaker 1: on a company. Open Ai unveiled a new gosh watch

1671
01:28:22,840 --> 01:28:27,160
Speaker 1: out Google. They've got search GPT, so they're applying what

1672
01:28:27,200 --> 01:28:30,360
Speaker 1: they learned from open Ai with chat GBT, but now

1673
01:28:30,360 --> 01:28:33,479
Speaker 1: it's search. So this is a new AI search feature

1674
01:28:33,560 --> 01:28:38,880
Speaker 1: being tested. It combines real time web information with their

1675
01:28:38,920 --> 01:28:42,679
Speaker 1: AI models, so if you ask a question, you get

1676
01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:46,360
Speaker 1: links to relevant resources, but you also get the answer

1677
01:28:46,400 --> 01:28:51,360
Speaker 1: as well. Really really interesting. Check this out search GPT.

1678
01:28:51,960 --> 01:28:54,559
Speaker 1: This is from the same folks who made chat GBT

1679
01:28:55,280 --> 01:28:59,519
Speaker 1: and it looks pretty slick. Now you can't get access.

1680
01:28:59,560 --> 01:29:02,519
Speaker 1: You have to join a wait list, but this this

1681
01:29:02,560 --> 01:29:05,559
Speaker 1: could be game changing if it works. Again, they've got

1682
01:29:05,560 --> 01:29:07,559
Speaker 1: that beta slapped on it, so it means if it

1683
01:29:07,560 --> 01:29:12,080
Speaker 1: doesn't work, you know, hey, don't blame us. Rich On

1684
01:29:12,160 --> 01:29:15,120
Speaker 1: Tech dot tv is the website for links to anything

01:29:25,960 --> 01:29:33,960
Speaker 1: Rich Demiro here talking technology. Joining me now is Jefferson Graham.

1691
01:29:34,400 --> 01:29:36,479
Speaker 1: I think you take the award for being on the

1692
01:29:36,520 --> 01:29:39,759
Speaker 1: show the most at this point. Jefferson Gram of Photo

1693
01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:45,160
Speaker 1: Walks photowalkstv dot com is his website. It is a

1694
01:29:45,360 --> 01:29:48,960
Speaker 1: beautiful looking website. If I do say so myself. Jefferson,

1695
01:29:51,479 --> 01:29:54,280
Speaker 1: Uh oh, I don't hear you where there you are?

1696
01:29:55,000 --> 01:29:58,040
Speaker 11: Yeah, thanks to your inspiration, Rich because you were fiddling

1697
01:29:58,080 --> 01:29:59,840
Speaker 11: around with yours. You kept telling me about all these

1698
01:29:59,840 --> 01:30:01,559
Speaker 11: things he could do and I didn't know about them,

1699
01:30:01,800 --> 01:30:04,080
Speaker 11: so I decided to follow in your footsteps.

1700
01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:04,720
Speaker 2: Well, I love it.

1701
01:30:04,760 --> 01:30:08,200
Speaker 1: And Jefferson also does a newsletter as well, and every

1702
01:30:08,240 --> 01:30:11,800
Speaker 1: week we are literally chatting on text about like what

1703
01:30:11,840 --> 01:30:13,840
Speaker 1: we're doing with the newsletter and how we can like

1704
01:30:14,240 --> 01:30:16,639
Speaker 1: hack things make them better, you know, just always trying

1705
01:30:16,680 --> 01:30:22,360
Speaker 1: to elevate it. So Jefferson Graham travels the world trying

1706
01:30:22,400 --> 01:30:26,040
Speaker 1: to take better pictures and videos on a smartphone, and

1707
01:30:26,080 --> 01:30:27,800
Speaker 1: so he's got a lot of tips and tricks. But

1708
01:30:28,560 --> 01:30:31,800
Speaker 1: this week you're talking about using third party apps. So

1709
01:30:31,920 --> 01:30:34,880
Speaker 1: kind of upping the ante by not just using what's

1710
01:30:34,880 --> 01:30:37,559
Speaker 1: built into the iPhone, the Pixel or the Samsung, but

1711
01:30:37,600 --> 01:30:39,120
Speaker 1: by downloading a third party app.

1712
01:30:39,160 --> 01:30:40,160
Speaker 2: What's the advantage of that?

1713
01:30:40,640 --> 01:30:42,680
Speaker 11: Okay, So there's a bunch of apps that have come

1714
01:30:42,720 --> 01:30:46,120
Speaker 11: out recently. The video apps that are native on the Galaxy,

1715
01:30:46,120 --> 01:30:49,439
Speaker 11: iPhone and Pixel are wonderful. They're easy. You open them up,

1716
01:30:49,680 --> 01:30:52,120
Speaker 11: you compose your image, you click record, and that's it.

1717
01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:55,400
Speaker 11: All good, but totally all automatic, and there's a few

1718
01:30:55,439 --> 01:30:58,920
Speaker 11: things that would be of interest to people. The three apps,

1719
01:30:58,960 --> 01:31:01,759
Speaker 11: by the way, are black Man Camera app, Final Cut

1720
01:31:01,800 --> 01:31:06,200
Speaker 11: Camera from Apple, and Keno. Those are the three. Final

1721
01:31:06,240 --> 01:31:10,719
Speaker 11: Cut and black Magic are free, Keynote Keno is ten dollars.

1722
01:31:11,080 --> 01:31:14,000
Speaker 11: The three key things is if you go to the

1723
01:31:14,040 --> 01:31:16,559
Speaker 11: next level and you plug in a microphone, which is

1724
01:31:16,640 --> 01:31:19,000
Speaker 11: like really easy to do and a lot of people

1725
01:31:19,040 --> 01:31:21,640
Speaker 11: like to do it, you have no audiometers in the

1726
01:31:21,720 --> 01:31:25,160
Speaker 11: native apps on the phone. So these apps, I'll give

1727
01:31:25,200 --> 01:31:27,439
Speaker 11: you audiometers and they let you know that you actually

1728
01:31:27,439 --> 01:31:29,760
Speaker 11: have sound. I don't know if you've ever done it,

1729
01:31:29,800 --> 01:31:31,960
Speaker 11: but I certainly have done an interview with somebody and

1730
01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:33,639
Speaker 11: at the end there was nothing there.

1731
01:31:33,800 --> 01:31:33,960
Speaker 6: Oh.

1732
01:31:34,000 --> 01:31:38,120
Speaker 1: Of course, of course I've forgotten to turn on. You know,

1733
01:31:38,200 --> 01:31:40,439
Speaker 1: I've been doing TV for a long time. I've had

1734
01:31:40,479 --> 01:31:44,280
Speaker 1: every single problem you could ever imagine in your lifetime.

1735
01:31:44,479 --> 01:31:48,240
Speaker 1: We've experienced it. But yes, the little levels are very

1736
01:31:48,360 --> 01:31:49,200
Speaker 1: very smart to have.

1737
01:31:49,640 --> 01:31:51,800
Speaker 11: So there's that one, and then there's recording to an

1738
01:31:51,840 --> 01:31:56,280
Speaker 11: SD card. Everybody. Okay, So this week's episode of Photo

1739
01:31:56,280 --> 01:31:59,000
Speaker 11: Woks TV, I'm on a hot air balloon in Temecula

1740
01:31:59,080 --> 01:32:01,240
Speaker 11: and I was on with three other people and one

1741
01:32:01,240 --> 01:32:03,759
Speaker 11: of the women I was on right before we stepped

1742
01:32:03,760 --> 01:32:05,559
Speaker 11: on the blue and she got a message saying you

1743
01:32:05,600 --> 01:32:08,280
Speaker 11: can't take any pictures because you're out of room. She

1744
01:32:08,400 --> 01:32:10,639
Speaker 11: had an old I phone with two hundred fifty six

1745
01:32:10,760 --> 01:32:14,080
Speaker 11: gigs and I said, you start the leading like Matt,

1746
01:32:14,080 --> 01:32:16,679
Speaker 11: start the leading like man. This is priceless up here.

1747
01:32:16,960 --> 01:32:20,800
Speaker 11: So on the black Magic app and the Final Cut

1748
01:32:20,800 --> 01:32:23,439
Speaker 11: app and Kenot you can record to an SD card

1749
01:32:23,840 --> 01:32:26,360
Speaker 11: and I'm sorry, you could record to an SD card

1750
01:32:26,439 --> 01:32:29,080
Speaker 11: on the Keno and black Magic on Final Cut to

1751
01:32:29,120 --> 01:32:31,880
Speaker 11: an SSD drive which is one hundred dollars drive, which

1752
01:32:31,920 --> 01:32:35,599
Speaker 11: is a lot larger. But the fact is you can

1753
01:32:35,680 --> 01:32:37,839
Speaker 11: do this which you can't do on the native apps,

1754
01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:40,840
Speaker 11: and save yourself from a lot of potential paint.

1755
01:32:41,120 --> 01:32:43,880
Speaker 1: You reminded me that I downloaded that Keno app from

1756
01:32:44,240 --> 01:32:46,000
Speaker 1: the first day that it was available. I paid the

1757
01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:49,360
Speaker 1: ten dollars. It's actually from the guys who created that

1758
01:32:49,479 --> 01:32:52,320
Speaker 1: Halied app. I think, yeah, which is like a really nice,

1759
01:32:53,000 --> 01:32:56,120
Speaker 1: you know, pretty photo app, and this is kind of

1760
01:32:56,120 --> 01:33:00,400
Speaker 1: their version with video. My photographer Luis you've met, he

1761
01:33:00,439 --> 01:33:04,000
Speaker 1: actually uses some random app that he found on Google

1762
01:33:04,040 --> 01:33:07,760
Speaker 1: Play sorry, on the app Store that he uses to

1763
01:33:07,800 --> 01:33:10,559
Speaker 1: record all of our TV stories and I actually need

1764
01:33:10,600 --> 01:33:12,040
Speaker 1: to ping him to find out what the name is.

1765
01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:12,880
Speaker 2: It's so random.

1766
01:33:12,920 --> 01:33:15,599
Speaker 1: It's just like something he found because he tested a bunch,

1767
01:33:15,840 --> 01:33:17,680
Speaker 1: but it kind of does the things he wants, so

1768
01:33:17,760 --> 01:33:20,240
Speaker 1: he likes them. So what do you find? What's the

1769
01:33:20,320 --> 01:33:23,160
Speaker 1: use case? Why would you know? I guess you know?

1770
01:33:23,240 --> 01:33:25,760
Speaker 1: Besides the meters? Do these things do? They take the

1771
01:33:25,800 --> 01:33:30,160
Speaker 1: same quality video, but it could be better video because

1772
01:33:30,160 --> 01:33:31,880
Speaker 1: you can tweak it. You can change your lighting, you

1773
01:33:31,880 --> 01:33:34,479
Speaker 1: can change your white balance, you could adjust things.

1774
01:33:35,120 --> 01:33:35,679
Speaker 2: Time laps.

1775
01:33:35,720 --> 01:33:38,960
Speaker 11: I'm a time lapse freak. I love time laps, fast

1776
01:33:39,040 --> 01:33:42,640
Speaker 11: moving videos, clouds flying through the skies, shadows going up

1777
01:33:42,640 --> 01:33:45,080
Speaker 11: and down over buildings. If you do a time lapse

1778
01:33:45,120 --> 01:33:48,000
Speaker 11: in the Apple app, it's totally automatic. You can record

1779
01:33:48,040 --> 01:33:50,639
Speaker 11: for an hour, two hours, three hours, one day, two days,

1780
01:33:50,680 --> 01:33:53,400
Speaker 11: three days, doesn't matter. Your video will always be thirty

1781
01:33:53,439 --> 01:33:55,960
Speaker 11: seconds long because Apple doesn't want you to have a

1782
01:33:56,000 --> 01:34:00,200
Speaker 11: longer video than thirty seconds. So with the Black Badge app,

1783
01:34:00,280 --> 01:34:03,200
Speaker 11: you can adjust and record as long as you want

1784
01:34:03,240 --> 01:34:07,160
Speaker 11: to and get way better looking time laps videos. I

1785
01:34:07,200 --> 01:34:10,120
Speaker 11: also use a time laps video app called Relapse, which

1786
01:34:10,160 --> 01:34:12,800
Speaker 11: is also terrific, but it'll cost you fifteen bucks. Black

1787
01:34:12,800 --> 01:34:14,320
Speaker 11: Magic app is free, so.

1788
01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:18,400
Speaker 1: Black Magic for iPhone and Android if you want to

1789
01:34:18,479 --> 01:34:21,599
Speaker 1: kind of unlock some more features. Why are they giving

1790
01:34:21,600 --> 01:34:22,599
Speaker 1: this to us for free?

1791
01:34:24,120 --> 01:34:29,800
Speaker 11: Black Magic has an interesting business mode that they also

1792
01:34:29,800 --> 01:34:33,719
Speaker 11: have Da Vinci Da Vinci Resolved software, which is editing software,

1793
01:34:33,800 --> 01:34:35,880
Speaker 11: and that's also free. I guess they just want to

1794
01:34:35,920 --> 01:34:38,400
Speaker 11: get you into the system and hopefully that one day

1795
01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:41,320
Speaker 11: you will buy a big camera from them. Is that

1796
01:34:41,400 --> 01:34:42,280
Speaker 11: a good segue for me?

1797
01:34:42,520 --> 01:34:43,920
Speaker 1: I was just going to say, wait a second, I

1798
01:34:43,960 --> 01:34:46,040
Speaker 1: just looked at the link you sent me. You're giving

1799
01:34:46,080 --> 01:34:48,599
Speaker 1: away a black Magic camera. Tell me about that.

1800
01:34:48,840 --> 01:34:51,759

Speaker 1: So what do people ask you usually like about this stuff?

1814
01:35:29,479 --> 01:35:33,320
Speaker 11: Everything? The guy today said, fine, I'll make the video,

1815
01:35:33,360 --> 01:35:35,160
Speaker 11: but I don't know how to edit it. Will you

1816
01:35:35,200 --> 01:35:37,280
Speaker 11: tell me how to edit? And I said, well, that's

1817
01:35:37,360 --> 01:35:40,400
Speaker 11: kind of a that's a lot to go through on

1818
01:35:40,439 --> 01:35:42,479
Speaker 11: a live stream. So I'm going to do a newsletter

1819
01:35:42,600 --> 01:35:46,360
Speaker 11: edition on Tuesday with editing tips. The big question you

1820
01:35:46,520 --> 01:35:49,240
Speaker 11: get it as well all summer long is should I

1821
01:35:49,280 --> 01:35:51,640
Speaker 11: hold onto my phone now or should I? Should I

1822
01:35:51,640 --> 01:35:54,439
Speaker 11: wait till September? And then when September comes is should

1823
01:35:54,479 --> 01:35:57,200
Speaker 11: I buy the new phone? And that seems to be

1824
01:35:57,240 --> 01:35:59,000
Speaker 11: the number one question. It used to be what kind

1825
01:35:59,040 --> 01:36:01,400
Speaker 11: of camera to buy? But that that has gone away.

1826
01:36:01,479 --> 01:36:03,599
Speaker 1: Well, so what's your answer for the cause? I get

1827
01:36:03,600 --> 01:36:05,240
Speaker 1: that a lot. You know, people say should I wait

1828
01:36:05,280 --> 01:36:07,800
Speaker 1: till the iPhone sixteen comes out? And it's like, well,

1829
01:36:08,320 --> 01:36:09,800
Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but what do you think

1830
01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:12,120
Speaker 1: they're really going to change between the fifteen and the sixteen?

1831
01:36:12,160 --> 01:36:13,800
Speaker 2: The fifteen is pretty darn good.

1832
01:36:14,479 --> 01:36:18,400
Speaker 11: That's fine, but it's July twenty seventh today, and you

1833
01:36:18,479 --> 01:36:21,160
Speaker 11: close your eyes, you wake up, two months will have

1834
01:36:21,160 --> 01:36:26,040
Speaker 11: gone by, and they'll be the fastest, most powerful, finnest,

1835
01:36:26,520 --> 01:36:30,479
Speaker 11: et cetera iPhone that's ever been created. And there could

1836
01:36:30,479 --> 01:36:32,519
Speaker 11: be some features on there that you want, and even

1837
01:36:32,560 --> 01:36:35,000
Speaker 11: if you don't, the iPhone fifteen will be one hundred

1838
01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:35,599
Speaker 11: dollars less.

1839
01:36:35,840 --> 01:36:38,160
Speaker 1: I always say, too, there's a there's like a ticking

1840
01:36:38,240 --> 01:36:41,320
Speaker 1: clock because it's like a countdown. So if you're going

1841
01:36:41,400 --> 01:36:43,519
Speaker 1: to buy the phone, buy it on day one because

1842
01:36:43,520 --> 01:36:46,120
Speaker 1: it's only it's only new for one year, three hundred

1843
01:36:46,120 --> 01:36:49,080
Speaker 1: and sixty five days, So why not get the most

1844
01:36:49,120 --> 01:36:51,840
Speaker 1: out of it? Like, if you're buying it today, you're talking,

1845
01:36:51,920 --> 01:36:53,679
Speaker 1: you know, you're only getting two months of newness.

1846
01:36:53,680 --> 01:36:54,960
Speaker 11: I don't know, It's this weird thing I have in

1847
01:36:54,960 --> 01:36:57,519
Speaker 11: my head. I would definitely definitely hold on to it.

1848
01:36:57,560 --> 01:37:00,599
Speaker 11: The other question is your pictures are great? What app

1849
01:37:00,600 --> 01:37:03,240
Speaker 11: are you using to take the pictures with? And on

1850
01:37:03,280 --> 01:37:06,000
Speaker 11: that one, I'm using the native apps. The native apps

1851
01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:11,719
Speaker 11: are fine. The Apple Camera app and the Samsung Camera

1852
01:37:11,720 --> 01:37:12,280
Speaker 11: app a great.

1853
01:37:12,600 --> 01:37:16,360
Speaker 1: Now, tell me between the iPhone, the Samsung and the Pixel,

1854
01:37:16,680 --> 01:37:19,800
Speaker 1: what's your preference what do you think like the kind

1855
01:37:19,840 --> 01:37:22,880
Speaker 1: of the highs and lows of each ar iPhone.

1856
01:37:23,000 --> 01:37:25,520
Speaker 11: For the first of all, I think the camera equality

1857
01:37:25,560 --> 01:37:29,360
Speaker 11: is great, and the whole system, the ecosystem Apple system.

1858
01:37:29,400 --> 01:37:32,320
Speaker 11: I'm talking to you on a MacBook and I do

1859
01:37:32,400 --> 01:37:36,360
Speaker 11: air drop all day long, and when I transfer stuff

1860
01:37:36,360 --> 01:37:39,639
Speaker 11: from the Galaxy is just not as seamless. I really

1861
01:37:39,720 --> 01:37:41,760
Speaker 11: like the pixel, I really like it a lot. I

1862
01:37:41,840 --> 01:37:44,200
Speaker 11: like the ease of use of the pixel. But they

1863
01:37:44,240 --> 01:37:47,280
Speaker 11: do stuff to the pictures, they juice up the colors,

1864
01:37:47,720 --> 01:37:50,400
Speaker 11: and I'm not really a fan of that. And I

1865
01:37:50,400 --> 01:37:53,519
Speaker 11: don't see a lot of tools in there to make changes.

1866
01:37:53,920 --> 01:37:57,160
Speaker 11: But on the iPhone, I could. I can change things around,

1867
01:37:57,479 --> 01:37:59,240
Speaker 11: I could shoot and raw, I can shoot in you know,

1868
01:37:59,280 --> 01:38:01,720
Speaker 11: all sorts of things. So I am an iPhone free

1869
01:38:01,960 --> 01:38:05,320
Speaker 11: have been since two thousand and seven when it first

1870
01:38:05,400 --> 01:38:05,920
Speaker 11: came out.

1871
01:38:06,120 --> 01:38:09,200
Speaker 1: Now, what about the idea of taking a camera on

1872
01:38:09,240 --> 01:38:11,000
Speaker 1: a trip. A lot of people still think if they

1873
01:38:11,000 --> 01:38:13,400
Speaker 1: go on a big international trip, they need to take

1874
01:38:13,479 --> 01:38:17,439
Speaker 1: a big international camera. Is that still the case or

1875
01:38:17,439 --> 01:38:19,080
Speaker 1: can people get by with their smartphone.

1876
01:38:19,120 --> 01:38:24,000
Speaker 11: I have been in Japan, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Mexico with

1877
01:38:24,360 --> 01:38:27,479
Speaker 11: just an iPhone and I did that on purpose, I

1878
01:38:28,120 --> 01:38:31,200
Speaker 11: really for my show because I'm doing everything on the iPhone.

1879
01:38:31,400 --> 01:38:34,000
Speaker 11: Did I miss having a big camera? No, I didn't.

1880
01:38:34,240 --> 01:38:36,280
Speaker 11: One place I want to have a big camera, But

1881
01:38:36,720 --> 01:38:38,920
Speaker 11: I didn't miss it because you wake up in the morning,

1882
01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:42,080
Speaker 11: you leave, you're out all day long. Who wants to

1883
01:38:42,080 --> 01:38:45,400
Speaker 11: carry around camera here? It's just a pain. And if

1884
01:38:45,439 --> 01:38:47,920
Speaker 11: you're in good light, which you're gonna be when you're

1885
01:38:47,920 --> 01:38:51,240
Speaker 11: out and about all day long traveling, you're in great

1886
01:38:51,280 --> 01:38:55,559
Speaker 11: shape with your smartphone. Nighttime is not as great. It's

1887
01:38:55,560 --> 01:39:00,000
Speaker 11: gotten it's getting better. But for the mid ninety five

1888
01:39:00,120 --> 01:39:02,640
Speaker 11: percent of all the shots that any traveler wants to do,

1889
01:39:03,000 --> 01:39:05,040
Speaker 11: they're going to get it done on their smartphone.

1890
01:39:05,280 --> 01:39:07,040
Speaker 2: And how many of the photos that you post are

1891
01:39:07,040 --> 01:39:09,880
Speaker 2: you editing? All of them?

1892
01:39:10,120 --> 01:39:10,559
Speaker 11: Everyone?

1893
01:39:10,760 --> 01:39:11,879
Speaker 2: Every one of them?

1894
01:39:12,280 --> 01:39:16,800
Speaker 11: If I post it? Yeah, every every photo that I

1895
01:39:16,880 --> 01:39:17,920
Speaker 11: post is that this.

1896
01:39:18,120 --> 01:39:20,600
Speaker 2: Is what with? How like? What are you doing like

1897
01:39:20,640 --> 01:39:22,360
Speaker 2: the one tap edit or you actually?

1898
01:39:22,760 --> 01:39:25,599
Speaker 11: First of all, I don't post thousands of pictures. I

1899
01:39:25,640 --> 01:39:30,240
Speaker 11: post select selected photos and I start with Apple Photos

1900
01:39:30,680 --> 01:39:32,640
Speaker 11: is my go to app. Then I go to light

1901
01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:37,400
Speaker 11: Room Mobile, and then I've been using Luminar in Radiant

1902
01:39:37,920 --> 01:39:40,360
Speaker 11: or two other apps that I also use but pretty

1903
01:39:40,400 --> 01:39:42,800
Speaker 11: much eighty percent of the time the Apple app.

1904
01:39:43,200 --> 01:39:47,000
Speaker 1: Wow, okay, well that's more than I do. And have

1905
01:39:47,120 --> 01:39:48,960
Speaker 1: you played with the AI selfies yet?

1906
01:39:48,960 --> 01:39:50,240
Speaker 2: On Meta? Have you made your own?

1907
01:39:50,960 --> 01:39:53,479
Speaker 11: Well, first of all, I didn't get the invitation, so

1908
01:39:53,520 --> 01:39:56,080
Speaker 11: it didn't work for me. As you know, these things

1909
01:39:56,320 --> 01:40:00,160
Speaker 11: roll out. Anybody who reads my newsletter knows that I

1910
01:40:00,200 --> 01:40:03,880
Speaker 11: got really inspired, thanks to mister DeMuro here, to start

1911
01:40:03,880 --> 01:40:07,479
Speaker 11: making cartoon images of myself with all these different apps

1912
01:40:08,040 --> 01:40:10,680
Speaker 11: based on what he was what rich what you were

1913
01:40:10,720 --> 01:40:15,000
Speaker 11: showing with the galaxy that you picked up in Paris,

1914
01:40:15,360 --> 01:40:18,280
Speaker 11: And I thought most of them were terrible. They looked

1915
01:40:18,320 --> 01:40:20,880
Speaker 11: at it on you, but they turned me into Jason

1916
01:40:20,920 --> 01:40:25,759
Speaker 11: Bateman and all sorts of different actors. But I really

1917
01:40:25,840 --> 01:40:28,960
Speaker 11: like what you've been showing from the meta. I don't

1918
01:40:29,000 --> 01:40:31,400
Speaker 11: have those tools yet, but I definitely will try it.

1919
01:40:31,439 --> 01:40:33,880
Speaker 1: Well, it's trained on billions of photos that people have

1920
01:40:33,960 --> 01:40:36,400
Speaker 1: uploaded to Facebook over the year, so I'm sure they

1921
01:40:36,400 --> 01:40:38,679
Speaker 1: have a lot of good data to train their AI.

1922
01:40:39,280 --> 01:40:40,080
Speaker 2: We're going to leave it there.

1923
01:40:40,120 --> 01:40:44,240
Speaker 1: The website for Jefferson Graham is photo walkstv dot com.

1924
01:40:44,360 --> 01:40:48,200
Speaker 1: Check out the black Magic Video contest he's running to

1925
01:40:48,320 --> 01:40:51,519
Speaker 1: win a twenty six hundred dollars camera. That's pretty wild, Jefferson,

1926
01:40:51,680 --> 01:40:52,719
Speaker 1: thanks for joining me today.

1927
01:40:53,160 --> 01:40:55,120
Speaker 11: Thanks rich coming up.

1928
01:40:55,080 --> 01:40:56,920
Speaker 2: Your favorite segment, the Feedback.

1929
01:40:57,560 --> 01:40:59,240
Speaker 1: We're going to get into some of the emails you've

1930
01:40:59,280 --> 01:41:02,400
Speaker 1: sent me throughout the week and gets pretty gnarly in there.

1931
01:41:03,120 --> 01:41:04,000
Speaker 2: We'll be back after this.

1932
01:41:05,200 --> 01:41:09,440
Speaker 1: Welcome back to rich On Tech. Rich DeMuro here closing

1933
01:41:09,520 --> 01:41:13,920
Speaker 1: out another show. If you can believe it, Episode eighty

1934
01:41:14,120 --> 01:41:19,080
Speaker 1: two of the rich On Tech Radio Show. Two stories

1935
01:41:19,080 --> 01:41:21,560
Speaker 1: I wanted to mention before we get to the feedbag.

1936
01:41:21,960 --> 01:41:26,479
Speaker 1: First off, a warning, this was really wild. CNBC tells

1937
01:41:26,520 --> 01:41:31,639
Speaker 1: the story of this software executive who wired four hundred

1938
01:41:31,720 --> 01:41:35,639
Speaker 1: thousand dollars to the wrong person while trying to buy

1939
01:41:35,640 --> 01:41:38,720
Speaker 1: a home. And the way this happened was basically, you know,

1940
01:41:38,760 --> 01:41:41,240
Speaker 1: when you're trying to buy a home, there's all these

1941
01:41:41,439 --> 01:41:44,440
Speaker 1: emails back and forth, and you're always wiring these payments

1942
01:41:44,840 --> 01:41:49,960
Speaker 1: for different things. Well, it turns out these cyber criminals

1943
01:41:50,080 --> 01:41:54,200
Speaker 1: intercept the email from let's say a title company or whoever,

1944
01:41:54,840 --> 01:41:57,519
Speaker 1: and then they write you back and say, Okay, here's

1945
01:41:57,560 --> 01:42:00,960
Speaker 1: all the information for the transfer. And you don't think

1946
01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:03,360
Speaker 1: anything of it because it looks like a legitimate email,

1947
01:42:03,360 --> 01:42:05,720
Speaker 1: but now you just transferred your life savings to some

1948
01:42:05,920 --> 01:42:09,519
Speaker 1: scam artist. Wire fraud in real estate has gone from

1949
01:42:09,640 --> 01:42:12,360
Speaker 1: nine million dollars in losses in twenty fifteen to four

1950
01:42:12,400 --> 01:42:15,720
Speaker 1: hundred and forty six million and twenty twenty two. The

1951
01:42:15,760 --> 01:42:18,560
Speaker 1: person that this happened to spent six months trying to

1952
01:42:18,600 --> 01:42:21,960
Speaker 1: recover these funds. They went to the FBI, they went

1953
01:42:22,000 --> 01:42:26,000
Speaker 1: to their bank, and it was only after CNBC questioned

1954
01:42:26,040 --> 01:42:29,559
Speaker 1: the bank Chase that they got all of their money back.

1955
01:42:30,280 --> 01:42:32,519
Speaker 1: But the main thing the banks say is to be

1956
01:42:33,040 --> 01:42:37,639
Speaker 1: wary of last minute changes to payment instructions and always, always,

1957
01:42:37,720 --> 01:42:40,960
Speaker 1: always verify wire recipients. So if you get an email

1958
01:42:40,960 --> 01:42:42,840
Speaker 1: you're in the middle of buying a house and they say, okay,

1959
01:42:42,840 --> 01:42:46,040
Speaker 1: time to wire this money, just call your contact and

1960
01:42:46,120 --> 01:42:49,160
Speaker 1: make sure that the information is right. That is a

1961
01:42:49,200 --> 01:42:51,080
Speaker 1: scary one. I remember when we were buying the house.

1962
01:42:51,439 --> 01:42:53,519
Speaker 1: It seemed like every day we had to wire money

1963
01:42:53,520 --> 01:42:55,639
Speaker 1: to someone, and it was like, you know, a little

1964
01:42:55,680 --> 01:42:57,599
Speaker 1: bit here, a little bit there, title company this that,

1965
01:42:57,680 --> 01:42:59,720
Speaker 1: and like it's just a bunch of random things and

1966
01:42:59,720 --> 01:43:02,719
Speaker 1: you're just wiring this money out and so yeah, things

1967
01:43:02,760 --> 01:43:04,479
Speaker 1: can go wrong, and I see how scam artists can

1968
01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:07,680
Speaker 1: really capitalize on that. And I've been complaining about the

1969
01:43:07,720 --> 01:43:12,680
Speaker 1: Sonos app, and Soos CEO Patrick Spence has listened and

1970
01:43:13,040 --> 01:43:16,320
Speaker 1: wrote a blog post that says, yes, we know there

1971
01:43:16,320 --> 01:43:20,120
Speaker 1: are issues. They acknowledge not just me, but for everyone

1972
01:43:20,880 --> 01:43:23,160
Speaker 1: significant problems with the new app that they released on

1973
01:43:23,240 --> 01:43:26,920
Speaker 1: May seventh. Fixing the app is their top priority. They've

1974
01:43:26,920 --> 01:43:30,320
Speaker 1: been doing bi weekly software updates. They say a lot

1975
01:43:30,320 --> 01:43:32,760
Speaker 1: of customers have a better experience, but it's not over,

1976
01:43:33,360 --> 01:43:36,680
Speaker 1: and they say that things should be improved by October.

1977
01:43:37,360 --> 01:43:41,160
Speaker 1: Still got three more months here. The one thing they

1978
01:43:41,200 --> 01:43:44,800
Speaker 1: mentioned that's been my biggest issue is the volume responsiveness.

1979
01:43:44,800 --> 01:43:46,719
Speaker 1: That should be fixed in the next two months two

1980
01:43:46,760 --> 01:43:50,040
Speaker 1: months to fix the volume button. I adjust the volume

1981
01:43:50,080 --> 01:43:52,840
Speaker 1: on my Sonos and it literally does not respond. It's

1982
01:43:52,880 --> 01:43:56,559
Speaker 1: so frustrating. Time for the feedback segment. This is your

1983
01:43:56,640 --> 01:43:59,519
Speaker 1: feedback plus the mail bag. These are the emails, the comments,

1984
01:43:59,520 --> 01:44:01,720
Speaker 1: and the question as I get from you, and believe me,

1985
01:44:01,800 --> 01:44:05,400
Speaker 1: you send me a lot. If you'd like to submit yours,

1986
01:44:05,439 --> 01:44:08,560
Speaker 1: go to rich on tech dot tv and hit contact.

1987
01:44:09,600 --> 01:44:12,200
Speaker 1: Laura from Silver Springs, Maryland writes in I have a

1988
01:44:12,200 --> 01:44:16,840
Speaker 1: bizarre experience with my computer. A large black spider kept

1989
01:44:16,920 --> 01:44:20,840
Speaker 1: crawling across my screen from the inside. Oh my gosh,

1990
01:44:20,880 --> 01:44:23,439
Speaker 1: that would scare the heck out of me. After that,

1991
01:44:23,560 --> 01:44:26,040
Speaker 1: the tech started randomly changing size. Now I get a

1992
01:44:26,040 --> 01:44:28,960
Speaker 1: page more unresponsive. My computer's already running slow.

1993
01:44:29,000 --> 01:44:29,559
Speaker 2: Now I'm worried.

1994
01:44:29,960 --> 01:44:32,000
Speaker 1: What could this spider have done to my computer? And

1995
01:44:32,120 --> 01:44:36,720
Speaker 1: is it gone? Is it gone? Am I dealing with

1996
01:44:36,720 --> 01:44:39,920
Speaker 1: a different kind of bug altogether? Laura, I don't know.

1997
01:44:40,000 --> 01:44:43,799
Speaker 1: I would burn that computer down, honestly, just blow torch it. Honestly,

1998
01:44:43,880 --> 01:44:47,800
Speaker 1: that's like spider inside your screen. I would literally run

1999
01:44:47,840 --> 01:44:51,080
Speaker 1: out of my house. I would run out. Jim writes

2000
01:44:51,120 --> 01:44:54,200
Speaker 1: in I heard your segment on cruise ship communication last weekend.

2001
01:44:54,200 --> 01:44:55,040
Speaker 2: Here's my approach.

2002
01:44:55,080 --> 01:44:57,880
Speaker 1: For short cruises with just a few c days, I

2003
01:44:58,000 --> 01:44:59,880
Speaker 1: keep my phone in airplane mode and I use this

2004
01:45:00,040 --> 01:45:03,760
Speaker 1: ship's Wi Fi for onboard communication. In foreign ports, I

2005
01:45:03,840 --> 01:45:07,840
Speaker 1: use t Mobiles International services. For longer cruises, I pay

2006
01:45:07,920 --> 01:45:10,280
Speaker 1: for the ship's Internet package, which allows me to use

2007
01:45:10,320 --> 01:45:14,160
Speaker 1: Wi Fi calling and messaging while at sea. This strategy

2008
01:45:14,160 --> 01:45:18,040
Speaker 1: has helped me stay connected without incurring excessive charges. Jim,

2009
01:45:18,439 --> 01:45:20,519
Speaker 1: I do think my time not being on a cruise

2010
01:45:20,720 --> 01:45:22,240
Speaker 1: is coming to an end because I think I need

2011
01:45:22,240 --> 01:45:24,080
Speaker 1: to see what it's like to connect on a cruise.

2012
01:45:25,000 --> 01:45:28,000
Speaker 1: Mark from Carlsbad says, I tried e SIMS from my

2013
01:45:28,080 --> 01:45:30,320
Speaker 1: family's trip to England after hearing your segment.

2014
01:45:30,400 --> 01:45:31,599
Speaker 2: The installation was easy.

2015
01:45:31,640 --> 01:45:34,639
Speaker 1: We saved over two hundred dollars in a week using

2016
01:45:34,840 --> 01:45:38,120
Speaker 1: WhatsApp for communication. However, I hit a snag when my

2017
01:45:38,160 --> 01:45:41,519
Speaker 1: credit card was frozen due to suspected fraud. I couldn't

2018
01:45:41,520 --> 01:45:45,320
Speaker 1: call the US using WhatsApp, and without Verizon's international calling

2019
01:45:45,360 --> 01:45:48,240
Speaker 1: I was stuck. I ended up adding their travel pass. Anyway,

2020
01:45:48,680 --> 01:45:51,360
Speaker 1: my advice, even when using eSIMs, have at least one

2021
01:45:51,439 --> 01:45:54,520
Speaker 1: person in your group keep an international plan for emergencies.

2022
01:45:54,920 --> 01:45:57,759
Speaker 1: The eSIM still saves money overall, but having a backup

2023
01:45:57,760 --> 01:46:01,160
Speaker 1: for voice calls can be a lifesaver. That is a

2024
01:46:01,200 --> 01:46:04,000
Speaker 1: great advice. That's what my wife and I did in Italy.

2025
01:46:04,120 --> 01:46:07,839
Speaker 1: I did the SIMS, she kept Verizon. It worked out perfectly.

2026
01:46:08,479 --> 01:46:10,800
Speaker 1: If you ever get in that situation again, have a

2027
01:46:10,960 --> 01:46:14,559
Speaker 1: Google Voice number. You can make calls over Google Voices

2028
01:46:15,800 --> 01:46:20,080
Speaker 1: Wi Fi, so that's easy there too. Carol from Orange

2029
01:46:20,080 --> 01:46:22,760
Speaker 1: County rights in I received a scam call related to

2030
01:46:22,800 --> 01:46:25,639
Speaker 1: my Spectrum service. The caller used a New Jersey number

2031
01:46:26,000 --> 01:46:28,240
Speaker 1: claimed I needed to contact them to keep my forty

2032
01:46:28,280 --> 01:46:32,479
Speaker 1: percent discount. Suspicious, I called Spectrum directly and confirmed it

2033
01:46:32,520 --> 01:46:34,600
Speaker 1: was indeed a scam, but they did inform me of

2034
01:46:34,640 --> 01:46:36,320
Speaker 1: a small price increase on my next bill.

2035
01:46:36,360 --> 01:46:37,800
Speaker 2: Oh how nice.

2036
01:46:38,240 --> 01:46:40,839
Speaker 1: I'm grateful for shows like yours that keep us informed

2037
01:46:40,880 --> 01:46:44,519
Speaker 1: about these scams and remind us to stay vigilant. It's

2038
01:46:44,560 --> 01:46:48,280
Speaker 1: scary how legitimate these attempts can sound. Absolutely, I'm glad

2039
01:46:48,280 --> 01:46:50,920
Speaker 1: you didn't fall for that one, Patricia says, Hey rich.
