Speaker 1: It is going well, although I will tell you, Producer Megan,

12
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,440

13
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: have a story to tell you. And this is very embarrassing.

14
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 3: Oh no, yeah.

15
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 2: So it's my kid's birthday this weekend and.

16
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: Well soon okay, And I was at Target yesterday just

17
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: do my normal. You know, sometimes you want to go

18
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: on a target run, right You ever feel that way?

19
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: I feel like that, Okay, Well I haven't had that

20
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: urge until just like this week for some reason. So

21
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: I go to Target and I'm thinking I'm like Dad

22
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 1: of the Year because I'm like buying wrapping paper for

23
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: his gifts, and I'm like, you know what I'm gonna get?

24
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: My kid a card, and so I look at all

25
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,479
Speaker 1: the cards I see, like the ones for little boys

26
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: or whatever, and it's like, you know, they have a

27
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,119
Speaker 1: whole bunch that like, you know, when they're turning like five, six, seven, eight, whatever.

28
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: So I get a card that has a seven on

29
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: it and I'm like, this is It's like a big

30
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 1: cutout of a seven. And I texted to my wife

31
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 1: thinking she's gonna be like, oh my gosh, you're so

32
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: I can't believe you would.

33
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 2: Even think to do that, right, Yeah.

34
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 1: I get a text back and she says, well, he's eight,

35
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: So I'm basically buying a card that I should have

36
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: bought last year.

37
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is Yeah, So how did that make me feel?

38
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 2: As a dad?

39
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 1: Like I, you know, I love technology and I've got

40
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: all that figured out right, not everything, but here it

41
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: is my personal life. I'm just like a.

42
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 3: Mess focus clearly I'm a mess.

43
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 4: No, But you know what, at the end of the day,

44
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 4: the thought was there you were you were trying to

45
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 4: be a good dad. I was trying to be and

46
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 4: you know what, like he won't ever find out, he.

47
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: Will never listen to this podcast in thirty year. Could

48
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 1: you imagine let me just go through the archives.

49
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,679
Speaker 3: Of Dad and I mean, you know seven and eight.

50
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's understand he is currently seventh.

51
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 3: You had his age correct, all right?

52
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: Now, well let's talk about the Galaxy tab s six.

53
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 2: Get that number right.

54
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,839
Speaker 1: Samsung, ahead of their event that's happening in New York

55
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,959
Speaker 1: next week, is announcing a tablet. Now, why would you

56
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 1: do that? Why don't you just wait until the event

57
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: so we have something fun for the event. So Samsung

58
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: has their big unveiling next week in New York City

59
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: and they are announcing the tablet that.

60
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:42,399
Speaker 2: They're going to show there.

61
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: So anyway, it's the Galaxy tab s six and it

62
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,959
Speaker 1: kind of sounds like the competitor to the iPad pro.

63
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: It's got a s pen which is a stylist that

64
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: magnetically attaches for charging, so it attaches to the side

65
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: of the tablet. It also has Bluetooth remote control functionality

66
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: air Action, which lets you take a selfie from the pen.

67
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 1: You just click the little clicker on there. They have

68
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 1: this Samsung decks which lets you plug the tablet into

69
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 1: a monitor and it turns that monitor into like a

70
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: desktop computer. I don't know if anyone's using that feature.

71
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 1: Samsung really tries to sell this every time we go

72
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,640
Speaker 1: to a Samsung event. I don't know if anyone's actually

73
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: using that. It's got a new processor, it's got good

74
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: lag free game experience. It's five point seven millimeters, so

75
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: it's slim. It does have a dual camera. Now they

76
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: put in the ultra wide lens which is one hundred

77
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: and twenty three degrees, which is very similar to what

78
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: they have in the Galaxy S ten. And you can

79
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: also unlock it through an on screen fingerprint scanner, which

80
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: also sounds like the Samsung Galaxy S ten. This is

81
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 1: like a giant phone. It's gonna be available September sixth

82
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: in gray, blue and rose. It's going to be available

83
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: for pre order on August twenty third in stores again

84
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: September six for six hundred and.

85
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 2: Forty nine dollars.

86
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: That is an insane amount of money to spend on

87
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: an Android tablet. Here's why there are no apps for

88
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: Android tablets. If you look at what the iPad has done,

89
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: I think the iPad is the gold standard for tablets,

90
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 1: and I almost never recommend an Android tablet because the

91
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 1: tablet might be fine. And this sounds like a great,

92
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 1: nice screen, high powered, it's got the stylus. But when

93
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 1: you go to look at the apps, go to find

94
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 1: an app like from the top, big apps like you know,

95
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 1: I'm talking all the news apps, all the video apps

96
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 1: like Netflix is there, right, It's just like I mean,

97
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 1: if you're going to spend six hundred and fifty dollars

98
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 1: to watch Netflix, you can get a fire tab for

99
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,599
Speaker 1: sixty bucks from Amazon. So my point is that I

100
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 1: don't think you should be spending six hundred and fifty

101
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 1: dollars on Android tablet. I just don't think the support

102
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: system is there, whereas if you're spending three hundred and

103
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: twenty nine dollars on the iPad, the inexpensive entry level,

104
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 1: which I know you want. Yeah, that's a much better

105
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: deal right now because it's been out for while. Yeah,

106
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: So two hundred and fifty bucks for a tablet that's

107
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: gonna blow away this brand new Samsung tablet.

108
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 2: And I'm not hating on Samsung.

109
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: You guys know, if you listen to the podcast I

110
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: hate on everything.

111
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 3: He's just critical, like that's his job.

112
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 1: But I'm just trying to tell you you're spending all

113
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: this money, it's better placed.

114
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 2: On an iPad.

115
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 3: Yeah.

116
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 4: Do you think that they're trying to deter everyone's attention

117
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 4: from the foldable phone.

118
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 2: I don't think so, because that's still coming out in

119
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 2: September as well.

120
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 4: But maybe they're like, but let's focus on our you know, well,

121
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 4: they've got Samsung has a couple of things coming out.

122
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: They've got the new tablet, they've got the new foldable phone,

123
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: and they have the new note, right, a couple of

124
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: things in the pipeline for Samsung.

125
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 2: They're all coming out very soon.

126
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

127
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: I think Samsung is a numbers game, and they're the

128
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 1: number two number. I think they're number one or number

129
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 1: two worldwide with phones. Yeah, certainly ahead of Apple in

130
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 1: terms of worldwide sales. And I think they're just they're

131
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: just playing the numbers game. They put out a lot

132
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: of stuff, A lot of people around the world by it.

133
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 3: Yeah.

134
00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 4: All right, So our first question comes from Danetta Jones.

135
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 4: Can you recommend a program for writing other than Office

136
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 4: three sixty five. I have it, but cannot use it

137
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 4: if I if I am not connected to the internet.

138
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 4: I am really tempted to just try and find a typewriter.

139
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 4: I just want to try. I just want to write

140
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 4: without all the hassle. Thank you to Netta.

141
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 1: I think I have something that's a little bit easier

142
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: than a typewriter, and I would recommend Google Docs. Google

143
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: Docs is available for free. It is what I've been

144
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 1: using for I can't remember the last time I fired

145
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 1: up Microsoft Word or any other word processing app. Although

146
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 1: I did write my book in the Apple Notes app

147
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,359
Speaker 1: on my computer last year, I'm not sure why this

148
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: year I'm writing it in Google Docs.

149
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know why.

150
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 1: I felt like, since I was writing a book about iOS,

151
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: I should write it in an iOS app.

152
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 2: I don't know.

153
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 3: Able notes app.

154
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 4: I just I see the notes app as just being

155
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 4: like a notes app.

156
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,919
Speaker 3: I wouldn't associate that with like writing.

157
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: I think what I liked about it is that you

158
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 1: know how you have all your notes on the left

159
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: hand side, like it's so. I had like a folder,

160
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: and then each tip was in a separate, little kind

161
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: of note itself, and I can count them up really easily,

162
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: because I was trying to get to one hundred and

163
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: one tips, so it took a while to do that.

164
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: But Google Docs works offline. I use this on the

165
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 1: plane all the time. The only thing I would have

166
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: to check to see is if Google Docs works offline

167
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: on all web browsers or just Google Chrome.

168
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 2: So that would be the only thing for who is it.

169
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: Again, Janetta Donetta, So I would say that's the only

170
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 1: thing you really need to kind of look out for,

171
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: is if you might have to switch to the Chrome

172
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: web browser to make the offline functionality work. But otherwise

173
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: you can use everything offline and when you get back online,

174
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: it just kind of sinks it all up. It stores

175
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 1: it in the background on your computer, and it works

176
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: really well. Like the first time I try this out,

177
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: which by the way, this might have been a year

178
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: or two ago.

179
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 2: Offline mode, Yeah, I was so impressed.

180
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 3: I didn't know that they had a lot.

181
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 2: I don't think a lot of people do.

182
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 3: So is it just a like a switch like, No,

183
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:00,080
Speaker 3: it's just.

184
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 2: It does it all automatically.

185
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: So if you have a bookmark, which I have a

186
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: bookmark for a new Google document, if I press that

187
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 1: on the plane, it'll make a new document. I can

188
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: copy it, I can make it whatever I want, and

189
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 1: then when I get back to the you know, regular internet, boom,

190
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: it all syncs up with the cloud very.

191
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 2: Very works well. Google Docs.

192
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 1: It's all free and you know, you don't necessarily need

193
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: anything else. Speaking of computers, you've got a computer that

194
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: has probably slowed down over the years, or maybe it

195
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: just bought your computer and it's already slow. This happened

196
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: to me with my mom. I bought her a new computer,

197
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: and my brother and I sort of went a little

198
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 1: cheap on it, and my mom is not one to complain,

199
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: and she complained about it, and I went over there,

200
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 1: she lives in New Jersey, and I checked it out,

201
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: and sure enough, this thing was so slow. It was

202
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: ridiculously slow. Like I couldn't believe that Dell would sell

203
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 1: a computer this slow. How old, brand new, it was

204
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: slow out of the box.

205
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

206
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: So one of the problems with some of these computers

207
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: is that the manufacturers are paid to install a bunch

208
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: of software on computers, not necessarily when you get a Mac,

209
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 1: but on the Windows side. So you might get a

210
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: brand new Windows computer and it comes with all these

211
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: weird apps that you never recognize, a photo editing app,

212
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 1: some sort of control panel app, all these weird things

213
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,119
Speaker 1: games that are on your desktop, stuff.

214
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 2: That you just don't need. What do you need nowadays.

215
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 3: Just a place to put your photos.

216
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,319
Speaker 2: A web browser, web.

217
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 3: Browser like, that's it.

218
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 2: That's like, I only use Chrome pretty much. That's all

219
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 2: you need.

220
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

221
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: So ADW Cleaner is a program from malware Bytes, which

222
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: is a respected software company, and they now have a

223
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: feature inside the latest ADW Cleaner seven point four point

224
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 1: zero that will go through your computer and scan it

225
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: and not just find the malware and all of the

226
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: garbage stuff that you don't need, but it will now

227
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: detect pre installed software on your computer that you might

228
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: not need to run your computer. And for a lot

229
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: of computers, it's going to find some stuff and you

230
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: have the option to get rid of that. Now, if

231
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: you're like me, this is something that you know, like

232
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: I would go through my computer and get rid of

233
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: all the stuff that I don't recognize or don't need because.

234
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 2: I'm a power user. But for the average person, they

235
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 2: don't necessarily know how to do that.

236
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: It's intimidating. You might think you're gonna break something. So

237
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 1: this program sort of cuts through all that and it says,

238
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: you know what, you can get rid of this stuff,

239
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 1: and by the way, we will keep a copy of

240
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: it in the background, but it's not gonna be running.

241
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 2: So if you ever do something wrong. You can easily

242
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 2: get it back.

243
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 3: That's cool.

244
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 2: That nice.

245
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:31,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a free program. It's called malware Bytes adw Cleaner.

246
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: The seven point four point zero is the one that

247
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: detects pre installed software, and pre installed software can have

248
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,679
Speaker 1: a real negative effect on your computer. It can be

249
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 1: running in the background. It could be hogging your processor,

250
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 1: your memory. You don't want stuff running on your computer

251
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: that you don't need running, and that's what this kind

252
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: of keeps from happening. And the company in their blog

253
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,319
Speaker 1: post at malwarebytes dot com says, let's be clear, pre

254
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,680
Speaker 1: installed software is not malicious. It's not like adware. Adware

255
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 1: is something that hijacks your browser. When you go to

256
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 1: search on Google, it might redirect you to bing or

257
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 1: Yahoo or something like that, and they make a little

258
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 1: bit of money off the ads you click. Pre Installed

259
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,959
Speaker 1: software is just stuff you don't really need. A company

260
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 1: might pay that manufacturer to put their app there because

261
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 1: they want it in front of a lot of people,

262
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 1: especially when you buy computers from big box stores if

263
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:22,599
Speaker 1: you buy them online.

264
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:24,599
Speaker 2: There is a little tip I got a couple of

265
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 2: years ago.

266
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: If you buy a Windows computer from the Microsoft store,

267
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 1: this specific one they don't allow these manufacturers to put

268
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 1: these third party apps on there.

269
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 2: So that's a little hint for you.

270
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,959
Speaker 1: If you want to buy a computer, maybe instead of

271
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,559
Speaker 1: Best Buy, go check the Microsoft store and save yourself

272
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: a headache.

273
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,719
Speaker 3: Oh interesting, Yeah, Oh cool.

274
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 2: I think that's it on this program. But really cool.

275
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 3: Yeah.

276
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: I love that idea because I think for so many

277
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,719
Speaker 1: people it's just very it's very nerve racking to make

278
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 1: any changes on your computer and to have a program

279
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,079
Speaker 1: like ADW Cleaner do it for you and to kind

280
00:11:58,120 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 1: of be confident in that.

281
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely. All right.

282
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 4: So this next question was written on your Facebook from

283
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 4: Don Heaton. Good morning, Rich, I was thinking about buying

284
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 4: one of the Verizon five G jet packs. Can you

285
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 4: explain the difference between that and the hot spot on

286
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 4: my phone? All I want to do is watch a

287
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 4: few movies in my motor home while traveling, and maybe

288
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 4: a laptop here and there. With my phone, I always

289
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 4: have issues with buffering. Thank you for your time, Don, Don.

290
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: So let's see the hot spot now, he says, the

291
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: five G hot spot, So I would actually one hundred

292
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: percent recommend that. The Only problem is you're not going

293
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 1: to find five G anywhere you go, especially in an

294
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 1: RV five G if you find it in a city

295
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 1: right now, is relegated to the usually the city centers,

296
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: and even there not very much. There's not a wide

297
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 1: swath of five G just yet. So I don't think

298
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 1: that the five G is going to be the best

299
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: bet for you if you want to get it, because

300
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 1: if it handles a four G connection, which I would

301
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 1: assume it does, you can I assume it handles for

302
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: four G LTE as well, like it falls back if

303
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't find it. So if you want a future,

304
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: proof yourself and buy this thing now.

305
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 2: But you're talking.

306
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,679
Speaker 1: It's a four hundred, five hundred dollars on a two

307
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: year contract for this hot spot, whereas you can get

308
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 1: a regular hot spot for much cheaper than that. So

309
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: I would definitely recommend the hot spot. And here's the

310
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: reason why hotspot is going to have a better antenna

311
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 1: inside for both receiving the signal and sending it out,

312
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: because it's a hot spot. It's meant for that purpose.

313
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 1: Whereas your phone can function as a hot spot and

314
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 1: it's fine. Ninety nine percent of the time, your phone

315
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 1: is going to be fine. We use it with our

316
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: kids all the time they're on their iPads in the

317
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: back seat. My wife turns her phone on and it's

318
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,679
Speaker 1: a hot spot and it works great. It's not going

319
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 1: to be as powerful in all situations using your phone

320
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,559
Speaker 1: as it is a dedicated hot spot. And if you're

321
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 1: talking about an RV, it's probably way easier to just

322
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: have a hot spot in your RV close to the

323
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: window so it gets a nice signal from outside. So

324
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: use some of those command strips or something to stick

325
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: it up on the window. Then you can plug it

326
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 1: into a plug in the RV so it always has power.

327
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: And now you don't have to worry about your phone

328
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: and you can use your phone. You don't have to

329
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 1: turn it on and off. Just leave this thing powered

330
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: on at all times. It will be picking up that

331
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: signal and broadcasting it out and you'll have a nice

332
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 1: hot spot in your RV. So I wouldn't necessarily recommend

333
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: the five G my Fi hot spot, but if you

334
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 1: want to go with a Verizon hotspot, sure, Now I

335
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: would ask the Verizon folks if the five G falls

336
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: back onto four G, which, of course, like I said,

337
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: I assume it does. But it's expensive and it's brand

338
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: new technologies. You're probably just better off getting a regular

339
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 1: hot spot. I think that's probably your best bet. Good question.

340
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 1: So the Pixel four is Google's next smartphone, and Google

341
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: is doing something really strange with this smartphone. Megan, what

342
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: do you know about the Pixel? Just off the top

343
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 1: of your head, great camera, that's it. The marketing has

344
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: worked from Google. Now, it's not just the marketing, it's

345
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: the truth, you know. I test every phone out there.

346
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 3: You loved the pixel.

347
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 2: I love the pixel, Pixel four, Pixel three, Pixel three.

348
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: Ye. Yeah, I've loved all the pixels. Yeah there's three pixels. Yeah,

349
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: they are near and dear to my heart. But the

350
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 1: problem with the Pixel is that I call it a

351
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 1: one trick pony. Amazing camera. The rest of it just

352
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 1: not very good. And it's one of those phones that

353
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 1: it's an amazing camera, amazing software, but the rest of

354
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: the phone leaves a little bit to be desired. And

355
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 1: that's really frustrating. Because the features on the Pixel are

356
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 1: so cool. Google makes this software so clean. They have

357
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 1: great ambient display that shows you stuff all the time

358
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 1: on your screen, like your time and your weather, and

359
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: your notifications and your next calendar appointment.

360
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 2: But the phone overall.

361
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 1: Just isn't as polished as some of the other phones

362
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: on the market, like from Samsung and some of the

363
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: other manufacturers like OnePlus, which has arguably better, cleaner, faster

364
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 1: running software. Anyway, I digress Pixel four is coming out

365
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 1: and Google's doing something weird to hype it up. They're

366
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 1: letting us know the features before it comes out.

367
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 3: Who does that backwards?

368
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: So the new features that they announced are radar, which

369
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: they're calling solely and the radar will detect movement around

370
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: the phone, which means you can use hand gestures to

371
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 1: do things like skip songs, snooze alarms, and silence phone

372
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: calls just by waving your hand in front of the screen.

373
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 2: Interesting. Does that make you want to buy a phone?

374
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 4: I don't think so, not really, because I feel like

375
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 4: I would mess with I would accidentally.

376
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 2: Is it really necessary? It's unnecessary.

377
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 1: It's cool and it reminds me of the future, but

378
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: it's not something that's going to make people buy this phone.

379
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 1: The other thing they're doing is adding face on lock,

380
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 1: which I mean, hello, Apple to have that for two

381
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 1: generations now.

382
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 2: But here's Google.

383
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 1: Here's how they knock face on lock on the iPhone.

384
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 1: They say, our face on lock is better because it's

385
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 1: ready the second you're near your phone. Because the phone

386
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 1: has the radar, so it knows when you're nearby, it

387
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 1: turns it on, and it unlocks your phone in a

388
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 1: variety of positions. Your phone could be upside down, so

389
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 1: I'm not talking face down, but just upside down.

390
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 3: Oh oh, upside down and you can.

391
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 2: Still yeah you thought face down?

392
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So it works in any orientation, which again,

393
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: I mean, now I have picked up my iPhone and

394
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: it's flipped over because it's kind of like a symmetrical

395
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 1: piece of glass at this point. So I have picked

396
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 1: it up and you have to flip it over before

397
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: it unlocks. I mean, give me a break. And the

398
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 1: other thing you have to do that the Google said

399
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: is on other phones you have to swipe up to

400
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 1: access to home screen. Our home screen will just appear

401
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: once it's unlocks. I mean, okay, and other Android phones

402
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 1: have done that. It's not that big of a deal.

403
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: So again, the pixel is going to have amazing an

404
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 1: amazing camera once again, But is this going to be

405
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,399
Speaker 1: the phone that people all of a sudden switch from

406
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 1: the iPhone too?

407
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:54,640
Speaker 3: I mean.

408
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 2: Probably not.

409
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:01,640
Speaker 4: No, it's going to take a lot for Apple lovers

410
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:02,639
Speaker 4: to make the switch.

411
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 3: Yes, I agree.

412
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 4: Okay, so this next question is from Beth as always,

413
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 4: thank you and your team for all your hard work.

414
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 2: Team.

415
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 4: I know, I know, I never get a shout out

416
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 4: like that. Anyways, if your ears burn all the time,

417
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 4: it is my fault because I tell everyone who will

418
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,159
Speaker 4: listen about all your great advice.

419
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:26,360
Speaker 2: Love that.

420
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 3: Thank you all.

421
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,440
Speaker 2: Okay, anyway, she's really into the team.

422
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 4: I just saw an ad for Honey that I believe,

423
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:38,679
Speaker 4: I understand is a coupon finding Slash lowest price website

424
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 4: that works with Amazon, Amazon Prime, etc. To find the

425
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 4: latest oh sorry, to find the lowest prices on thousands

426
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 4: of items. I am not the most knowledgeable tech savvy person,

427
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 4: so I'm asking for your advice. Have you heard of

428
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,560
Speaker 4: Honey and what do you know about it?

429
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 1: I love Honey in my TEA good one.

430
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,640
Speaker 2: I actually have nice.

431
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: So Honey is a Chrome extension or any any web browser.

432
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: It's an extension, a little piece of software that sits

433
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 1: inside your web browser and it monitors all the websites

434
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: that you go to, waiting for you to go to

435
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 1: a shopping website, look at an item, and as soon

436
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 1: as it notices that you're looking at something. It says, hmm,

437
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: let me see if a there's a promo code for

438
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: that website or a cheaper price.

439
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:26,439
Speaker 2: On that product.

440
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 1: That's the way it's supposed to work. In my experience,

441
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 1: Honey is good. It's got a lot of name recognition.

442
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 1: They've got a lot of installs. I feel like they

443
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 1: don't have the best coupon codes and the best promo

444
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: codes and the bright best price comparison. But I will

445
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 1: tell you one feature I did use, which it did

446
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,919
Speaker 1: one hundred percent work on is I wanted one.

447
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 2: Of those little what was it called. It was a.

448
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 1: Google smart alarm clock from Lenovo. I don't know if

449
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 1: you remember we saw it at CTEs. Yes, little tiny

450
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 1: eighty dollars device. Yeah, And it came out a couple

451
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 1: months ago, and I said, well, I'm not paying eighty

452
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 1: bucks for this seventy nine, but I'll pay some when

453
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:04,360
Speaker 1: it goes on sale.

454
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 2: I'll snap one up.

455
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: So I sat using Honey a little price alert and

456
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 1: you just are on a page, you click their bookmark

457
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 1: and it says, hey, we'll add this to your price alert,

458
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 1: and as soon as the price drops, we'll send you

459
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: an alert. Sure enough, the second that price drop to

460
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 1: fifty nine dollars, which was twenty dollars off, I got

461
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 1: an alert from Honey before all the blogs that I

462
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: follow picked it up.

463
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:26,400
Speaker 3: Oh I love that.

464
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: So I did like that feature and it worked out,

465
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 1: So bottom line, try Honey. The other one that I

466
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: really like is called wiki by Yes, And the reason

467
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,919
Speaker 1: I like wiki by is it does very similar things,

468
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 1: but I find that the discount codes that it finds

469
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 1: are really good. And the reason why they're good is

470
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 1: because the way wikibi works is when you enter a

471
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 1: discount code into let's say gap dot com, it notices

472
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 1: that and it saves it for the next person it does,

473
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: and it notices if that code worked or not. So

474
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: if it didn't work, it won't show it to the

475
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,479
Speaker 1: next person. Or I'm sure there's some threshold maybe if

476
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 1: it doesn't work for five people, it stops showing it.

477
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: But I love that smarts and Honey may do that

478
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: same thing. I'm just not sure.

479
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:05,959
Speaker 2: Now.

480
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 1: Honey is actually a local company in LA, so maybe

481
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 1: we should do a story with them and get some

482
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 1: clarification on how their system works. I just personally found

483
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 1: that wikibi has worked really well it's come up with

484
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: some codes.

485
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,440
Speaker 2: It has saved me. I would gather hundreds of dollars

486
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 2: since I've installed it.

487
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 4: I use wikiby too, but I don't know why, but

488
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 4: lately when I've used it, I've had to manually put

489
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 4: in the promo code, like it'll give me eight and

490
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 4: I have to like try each one.

491
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,360
Speaker 2: Okay, it's supposed to try them automatically.

492
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:35,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, I used to do it automatically.

493
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:37,920
Speaker 1: So I wonder it'd be the website that you were on. Yeah,

494
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: that could have been. It so sketchy, but those are

495
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 1: the two. Yeah, that's gonna say for the websites you're

496
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,880
Speaker 1: on the sketchy. It's like the dresses that they sell

497
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: on Instagram will look up address and then all of

498
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 1: a sudden, she's like, oh my gosh, this is the

499
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,160
Speaker 1: perfect dress. It's on Instagram, Like, yes, it was targeted

500
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 1: towards you.

501
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 3: Because literally, like that happens to me.

502
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 1: All they're crazy marketers with these dresses. But she has

503
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:00,919
Speaker 1: bought some of them for like twenty nine bucks or

504
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 1: something in.

505
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 4: That Instagram like Legit stores, Pinterest, like the weirdest, strangest stores.

506
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,359
Speaker 4: Like you'll see a dress you like it and then

507
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 4: you go to the website and it's some random store

508
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 4: that you've never heard us, Like, you're.

509
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 2: Shipping like direct from China. Yeah, which is fine.

510
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 1: We've been there. No, we've been there and we saw

511
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 1: the clothing. Remember we were in that giant store with

512
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 1: all the clothing stuff.

513
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,919
Speaker 2: You bought a dress. I bought one too, but not

514
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 2: for me.

515
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 3: I mean.

516
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 1: Android Auto is getting an upgrade if you use Android

517
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 1: Auto in the car. I feel like I've talked about

518
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,160
Speaker 1: this before on the podcast, but it's actually now rolling out.

519
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: If you have an Android phone, you plug it in.

520
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,680
Speaker 1: This is what happens when it takes over the screen

521
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,719
Speaker 1: in your car. It's Android's answer to CarPlay from Apple,

522
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 1: but they are getting some really good improvements. I got

523
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 1: a preview of this at Google Io a couple months ago,

524
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,160
Speaker 1: and I've been eagerly, eagerly waiting for this because it

525
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 1: just makes Android Auto so much more useful. Number One,

526
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 1: you don't have to switch between categories of apps. So

527
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: if you're familiar with Android Auto right now, if you

528
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,679
Speaker 1: want a music app, you have to tap music and

529
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:10,920
Speaker 1: then it gives you all of your apps and you

530
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,959
Speaker 1: have to tap again or scroll to get into your

531
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 1: next music app, or to select the music app you want,

532
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 1: or to switch. It's a big process to switch. That's

533
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,360
Speaker 1: not good. Now it's all one screen. If you want

534
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 1: to go to a map program, you got to go maps,

535
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 1: click again and then see all your maps programs, which

536
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 1: maybe you have like Ways and Google Maps and maybe

537
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,159
Speaker 1: another one on there, and you have to choose that.

538
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 2: So now they've streamlined it.

539
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 1: Also, it's one screen and your top four apps on

540
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 1: the top row are the ones that you've used recently,

541
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: or the algorithm determines that you might want to use next,

542
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 1: which is smart. The other thing is that it has

543
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,479
Speaker 1: an overall darker look, so it kind of blends in

544
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: more with your car screen. Android Auto used to be

545
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 1: really bright and it kind of didn't make sense on

546
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: a car, which the dashboards are mostly dark in cars

547
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 1: except yours.

548
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 2: You have like a cream colored.

549
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 3: Dashbar, right yeah, but still like you know, it's dark, but.

550
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: It's still dark, right like your screen and like your

551
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 1: dashboard and stuff. And then the other thing that it does,

552
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: and this is Holley Lujah. It finally plays the audio

553
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 1: that you were playing when.

554
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 2: You left your car.

555
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 3: I love that.

556
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: If you're in the middle of a song. It will

557
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:13,640
Speaker 1: just start playing that song. It will pick up where

558
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 1: you left off. You're in the middle of a podcast

559
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: you're listening to. I haven't tested with serious XM, but

560
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,679
Speaker 1: I would assume it would start playing again. Maybe not

561
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,439
Speaker 1: from the middle of the song because it's live streaming,

562
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: but maybe it'll just start the stream again.

563
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 2: I have to test it. This has not come to

564
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 2: my phone yet.

565
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: I am literally checking every moment of the day because

566
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 1: it's rolling out. They announce these things and they say, oh,

567
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 1: a're rolling this out because let's say there's a problem.

568
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: They don't want all billion Android phones in the world

569
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 1: having a major issue, so they roll it out to

570
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 1: one hundred thousand they see, make sure everything's okay. Now

571
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,400
Speaker 1: rolled out to another one hundred thousand, so it could

572
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 1: take a few weeks to get through the whole earth.

573
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: What else, it opens up right to your map, so

574
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,679
Speaker 1: immediately when you get into Android Auto, your maps are

575
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: up so you can just directly go to like where

576
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 1: you need to go. It looks and sound it's amazing.

577
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,359
Speaker 1: Like I said, I saw this and tried it at

578
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 1: Google Io, but I have not had it in my

579
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 1: own hands, so I can't wait and someone did email

580
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:08,200
Speaker 1: me and said.

581
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 2: Rich you suck.

582
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 1: You don't realize that I've already had in my phone.

583
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 1: When I get into my car, my audio starts again

584
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: and I have Android. Yes, every Android phone is different.

585
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: Some of them do that, but now Google is making

586
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 1: this streamline streamline and all phones will do it. Yes,

587
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: your Samsung phone might have done that. But and I replied,

588
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 1: and they have a fancy Android.

589
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 2: They didn't reply back. Yeah, your phone is so fancy.

590
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:35,880
Speaker 3: That's funny. All right.

591
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 4: This next question is from Christy Baderacco.

592
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 1: Okay, you don't have to do the last names if

593
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,560
Speaker 1: you don't want Christy those are those can be tricky sometimes.

594
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:53,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, Christy, Christy, Christy, Christy, Chris d Nope, Christie. Do

595
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 4: you know anything about the photostick in air quotes? It

596
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,680
Speaker 4: is supposed to plug into your computer and organize all

597
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 4: of your photos. I wanted to see if it is

598
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 4: safe to use.

599
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: I get no less than a dozen emails about the photostick,

600
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: like all the time.

601
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 3: Really, I feel like this is the first one I've seen.

602
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 1: This is the first one I forwarded to you, because wow,

603
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: I'm curious. I just get so many of these things,

604
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 1: so number one, if you search photostick, this is something

605
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: that they advertise on Facebook and all these online things

606
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: like crazy. Yeah, I'll just tell you why I don't

607
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: like this.

608
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 2: Number One, you go to Google, the first result is

609
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:35,479
Speaker 2: photostick review.

610
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 1: Is it a scam or legit? That's your first clue

611
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 1: that you don't want to buy this thing.

612
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

613
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 1: Number two, when you get to the photostick website, it

614
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 1: uses a really.

615
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 3: I can't even like find Oh, here's the website the

616
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 3: tenth link.

617
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.

618
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 3: Photos.

619
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 2: That's the other thing.

620
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 1: It's it's like it's a it's a major down the

621
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: list on Google, which does not tell me anything good.

622
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 3: This is weird.

623
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 1: So now you go to this one. Number Oh my god,

624
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 1: there's so much that's wrong about this. It's just I

625
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 1: don't even want to Just stay away from the photostick. No,

626
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 1: stay away from the photostick. I'm looking at the picture

627
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:17,879
Speaker 1: of the photostick and the USB photostick looks like a

628
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 1: USB drive that I got ten years ago at sea.

629
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: It's so old school. Number three, they play pricing games.

630
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,119
Speaker 1: It says it retails for one sixty. Now it's on

631
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: sale for seventy nine to ninety nine. I guarantee you

632
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 1: if I add this to my cart and then leave

633
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: the website or go to a different page on the website,

634
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: it's gonna be like.

635
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,239
Speaker 2: Hold on, fifty percent off. We'll take another twenty five

636
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 2: dollars off.

637
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:41,399
Speaker 3: Just today.

638
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 4: It's fifty four dollars on Amazon right now. Yeah, don't

639
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 4: buy it.

640
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:46,640
Speaker 2: Don't do it. Here's what I recommend.

641
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,360
Speaker 3: Oh my god. Every review is like, no, just.

642
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 1: Get Google Photos. It does the same thing. It's free,

643
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 1: it's Google. Why do you want your photos on a photostick?

644
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 1: I don't understand Google Photo. We'll find all the pictures

645
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 1: on your computer and upload them to Google Photos.

646
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,159
Speaker 3: Just do it that way.

647
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:06,200
Speaker 2: Don't do the photostick.

648
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:10,879
Speaker 1: Oh, someone in Greensboro, Australia, just bought the photostick for

649
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: Mac and PC five hours ago. It's a little pop

650
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: up on their website that tells you when someone buys it. Yeah,

651
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,919
Speaker 1: it's just it uses, it's using high pressure, and I

652
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,120
Speaker 1: just I don't like it. And I and I will

653
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 1: tell you I did email this company to get one

654
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: to try out, because so many people are emailing me

655
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: and guess what they said, no no response. That's even

656
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 1: worse than a no that means they're just not even caring.

657
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,719
Speaker 1: If I'm getting no response as a journalist, imagine as

658
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: a customer, I just don't recommend it. There are better

659
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 1: ways to do this. T Mobile and Sprint are going

660
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 1: to merge. Department of Justice has approved it, and it

661
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 1: seems like this is a done deal. And so what's

662
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: gonna happen with this? T Mobile and Sprint are going

663
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 1: to merge and give a bunch of their assets to Dish,

664
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,719
Speaker 1: who is going to start up the new fourth carrier

665
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 1: in America, which makes no sense because Sprint was the

666
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 1: fourth carrier. They struggled as the small fourth carrier. But

667
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 1: now apparently with Dish Network doing it, everything's gonna be

668
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 1: great and they're gonna be able to compete. I don't

669
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 1: really understand that. Yeah, why is Dish gonna make it work?

670
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 1: But T Mobile and Sprint are tea or Sprint.

671
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 3: Couldn't and they're gonna call it Dish.

672
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 2: I don't know. That's a terrible name for a phone company.

673
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 1: Dish, but they have they Dish to get a little

674
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 1: headstart is going to get a bunch of assets from Sprint,

675
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: their eight hundred megahertz spectrum whatever that means, I guess

676
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 1: that's how they you know, one of their spectrums for

677
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: the calls. They're also going to get Sprint's pre paid business,

678
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: which is Boost Mobile, Virgin Mobile, and Sprint branded prepaid customers.

679
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 1: They bought that. They got that for one point four

680
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:54,959
Speaker 1: billion dollars.

681
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 2: That's nine point three million customers. Just to give you some.

682
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 1: Kind of perspective, eighteen team Verizon have like one hundred

683
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 1: million customers each or almost that many. Yeah, so you're

684
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 1: talking a tenth You really think Dish is gonna be

685
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 1: able to compete with a small amount of spectrum?

686
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 2: No, no, but we'll see.

687
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 1: Oh, I should probably say on the flip side, what

688
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 1: T Mobile and Sprint want to do, and they said

689
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 1: that we plan to build one of the world's most

690
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 1: advanced five G networks, which will massively revolutionize the way

691
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 1: consumers and businesses use their connected devices to enhance their

692
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 1: daily lives.

693
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,160
Speaker 3: We'll see.

694
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 2: I'll believe it when I see it.

695
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 3: The accent, what was that?

696
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 2: I don't know.

697
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 1: I don't know why they had to get together, And

698
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 1: I love that their networks don't even their networks don't

699
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: even work together. Sprint and T Mobile have two totally

700
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 1: different types of networks, but whatever.

701
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 3: Okay, well anyways, this next question is from Ronda Taylor.

702
00:30:57,760 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 3: Good afternoon.

703
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 4: I purchased am dashcam and was wondering if you would

704
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 4: know what different companies I could go through for service.

705
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 4: This service through PURECM is horrible. Thank you in advance

706
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 4: for letting me know. Have a great dar.

707
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 1: Purecam is a four g LT connected car security cam

708
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:22,479
Speaker 1: dash cam and it is I've actually kept using it

709
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: since our segment because I really like it. And I

710
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 1: will tell you the service. You can pop in any

711
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 1: simcard as long as it's GSM. So whatever service that

712
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 1: it came with, which I think was Ultra Mobile, which

713
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 1: runs on T Mobile, I don't know if it's going

714
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 1: to be much better. Your only two choices are either

715
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 1: AT and T or T Mobile. Now underneath those you

716
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: can use any of the prepaid carriers, like if you

717
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: want to stick in a Walmart SIM or a T

718
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 1: Mobile prepaid or Ultra or Simple, anything that runs on

719
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 1: the T mobile network or the AT and T network

720
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 1: will work. And if you want to know, just just

721
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 1: look up like list of you can say T Mobile MVN.

722
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 1: Mvn O means Mobile Virtual Network Operator, which means those

723
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,120
Speaker 1: are the companies that operate on T mobile service.

724
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 2: Which is boost Mobile.

725
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 1: So I mean, look how many there are Consumer Cellular,

726
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 1: Eco Mobile, Go Smart, Jaguar Mobile, Jolt Mobile, Liberty Wireless,

727
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 1: Metro PCs, Mint Mobile, net Ten, Republic Wireless, Simple Mobile,

728
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 1: speed Talk, Straight Talk, Ting, Trackphone, Ultramobile, Walmart, Family Mobile, ZIP.

729
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 1: You have a lot to choose from, but again those

730
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 1: are all running on T mobiles network. Same thing with

731
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 1: AT and T. If you do AT and T list

732
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 1: of mvn O, you'll get all those. Personally, if you

733
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 1: want better service, I would go with.

734
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 2: The AT and T network. That's going to give you

735
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 2: better service.

736
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 1: Consumer Cellular, Cricket, Freedom, Pop, Huo, Wireless, net Ten, Straight Talk, Trackphone.

737
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: Put any of those SIM cards in there and you'll

738
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 1: be good to go. Personally, I would say that you

739
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: want a SIM card that has a bunch of data,

740
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 1: because the way this video camera works is it sends

741
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,480
Speaker 1: little clips to the cloud and it does a pretty

742
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: good job at compressing those clips. But it's mainly data.

743
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 1: You don't need any voice. You're not making calls through

744
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: your dash cam. It also functions as a hot spot,

745
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 1: so in your car you can use that as a

746
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: hot spot. So if you're using that functionality, you probably

747
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 1: want to get a bigger data plan. But I would

748
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 1: say a data plan of a gig or two a

749
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 1: month is probably fine, maybe six gigs a month at

750
00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: the most.

751
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 3: Didn't we do a story on pr cam?

752
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, yeah, I was.

753
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 1: Like it was a while ago. Yeah, yes, that's where

754
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: I found it.

755
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 2: It was great. It's a great little dash cam.

756
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 1: It records inside and outside. It also has g shock sensor,

757
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 1: so if your car gets hit, it'll do a little

758
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 1: recording of the clip and it will send it, you know,

759
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 1: up to the cloud.

760
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:50,239
Speaker 2: So you have it.

761
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 1: You can live stream a view from your car inside

762
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 1: or out. So if you're on vacation, your car's parking

763
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,320
Speaker 1: your driveway, you can get a little live stream make

764
00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 1: sure everything's okay.

765
00:33:58,400 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of fun.

766
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 2: AT and T.

767
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 1: Let's see what I want to talk about AT and T.

768
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,120
Speaker 1: There's so many things to talk about this week. I'll

769
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,359
Speaker 1: just do a couple. I'll do two short things. So

770
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 1: AT and T is rebranding direct TV Now. And if

771
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: you have listened to me for a while, you know

772
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 1: that I've been on DirecTV Now. We were there for

773
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 1: the launch event in New York City back in twenty

774
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,920
Speaker 1: seventeen or is it twenty sixteen, whatever, it was a

775
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 1: couple of years ago. I've been a customer since day one.

776
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,320
Speaker 1: They had this fantastic plan. I think it was forty

777
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 1: five dollars or forty for the month, and I get

778
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 1: every channel. I'm talking every channel. I'll still have that plan,

779
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 1: including HBO. Yes, but they raised the price. Now it's

780
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 1: up to fifty dollars a month. So when I first joined,

781
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 1: it was forty, which was amazing. Fifty dollars is still

782
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:43,839
Speaker 1: pretty amazing for all the channels I get. I don't

783
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 1: watch any of them, but they're there, and I do

784
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 1: get HBO, which I think is worth it.

785
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:49,840
Speaker 2: That's like fifteen dollars a month minimum.

786
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 1: Right. So AT and T is rebranding direct TV now

787
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:58,920
Speaker 1: to become AT and T TV now say that ten

788
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 1: times fast and T TV. Now, why do they have

789
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 1: to rebrand? I mean, I get it. They want to

790
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,439
Speaker 1: make everything AT and T. But like direct TV now,

791
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 1: it never really made sense because it was never delivered

792
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 1: through satellite. Direct TV now direct TV you think of

793
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 1: satellite TV. So that was our first mistake. They should

794
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,239
Speaker 1: have called it something else at the beginning. Yeah, but

795
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:23,439
Speaker 1: you know it's been going on for a couple years now,

796
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 1: so don't be surprised if your Direct tv Now app

797
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 1: switches to AT and t TV now. You will have

798
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,840
Speaker 1: to if you use your AT. And this is the

799
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,760
Speaker 1: other thing I love about it, if you have direct

800
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 1: TV now. And since I have all these channels, I

801
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,480
Speaker 1: can log into any of those apps for those channels.

802
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:41,520
Speaker 2: That's really why I keep it.

803
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 1: I can log into the Nick app, I can log

804
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 1: into the Disney Junior app. I can watch my favorite

805
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 1: shows on any network if I had any I'm.

806
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 2: Talking theoretically here right right, they're a Disney.

807
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,919
Speaker 1: No, most of them are. Yeah, but I can log

808
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: into any app. So if someone's like, oh, there's a

809
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 1: really cool show on Investigation Discovery, I'm like, oh cool,

810
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 1: I'll just log into the app.

811
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's really.

812
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:04,800
Speaker 1: A channel, Probably Investigation. I think that's like some of

813
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:06,880
Speaker 1: my mom watches. Yeah, History channel.

814
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 2: There you go.

815
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:08,919
Speaker 1: I don't even know cable channels. That's how like out

816
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 1: of it I am when it comes to TV. I

817
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 1: don't even know what channels there are.

818
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 4: I still remember the channels that I would watch as

819
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:16,840
Speaker 4: a kid that are now like completely different, Like fourteen

820
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 4: was Disney free Form.

821
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 3: Free Form used to be ABC Family.

822
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know all these things from your childhood three

823
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 1: years ago, Megan are just but I remember.

824
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 4: There was a time where there was like just twenty

825
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:30,800
Speaker 4: not twenty channels, but like forty channels when I was

826
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:33,880
Speaker 4: really young, like seven, and like it was Nickelodeon was

827
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,360
Speaker 4: on channel twelve and fourteen was Disney.

828
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 1: Now and now there's like seven Nickelodeon channels. It's like

829
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 1: nick XD, or maybe that's Disney XD. There's like it's

830
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,360
Speaker 1: like a bunch of different channels. Yeah, it's wild and

831
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 1: another quick pop here. Visio is rolling out support for

832
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 1: Airplay two and Home Kit to its smart Cast TV sets.

833
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,959
Speaker 1: We did a story about this on KTLA a couple

834
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,319
Speaker 1: months ago, giving you a preview of what this is going.

835
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,280
Speaker 2: To look like. Now they're actually rolling out.

836
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,040
Speaker 1: So if you have a Visio TV with something called

837
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 1: smart Cast dating back all the way to twenty sixteen,

838
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 1: you want to turn on your WiFi, go into your

839
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 1: settings and update your software. You may not get the

840
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 1: software update today since it's rolling out again, like we

841
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,759
Speaker 1: explained earlier, Yeah, but you will get it, and it's

842
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 1: really this is a big software update to get Apple

843
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:23,960
Speaker 1: Airplay is really cool because now you can take a

844
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 1: picture from your iPhone screen and show it off on

845
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 1: your TV screen. Or you can watch a movie from

846
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,399
Speaker 1: iTunes on your phone and just kind of I call

847
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 1: it sling it to your TV, you know, stream it

848
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 1: to your TV, whatever you want to call it. But

849
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 1: whatever you have on your phone now shows up on

850
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: your TV screen, which is pretty cool.

851
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 3: That is cool.

852
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:43,440
Speaker 1: And on another note, if you have a bunch of

853
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 1: videos in your house, you can link them all up

854
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:47,839
Speaker 1: and have the same music playing on all of them.

855
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 1: You create like almost like a Sono's kind of experience

856
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 1: in your house.

857
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 2: If you got that.

858
00:37:54,640 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 4: Okay, this next question is from BEV. Subject is control

859
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:04,319
Speaker 4: lights in your home via a smartphone. I'm sorry, but

860
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 4: I've searched and searched and can't find this on your site.

861
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,360
Speaker 4: Before May of this year, you did a segment on

862
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 4: KTLA about little devices that you could plug your home lamps,

863
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,720
Speaker 4: et cetera, which allow them to be controlled off site

864
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 4: through as through a smartphone.

865
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:21,360
Speaker 3: What was the name of this product.

866
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: I think she's talking about a smart plug. Did she

867
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 1: say control lamps, yeah.

868
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:28,800
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, smart plugs.

869
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 1: So the ones we featured a couple in our segment,

870
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:36,719
Speaker 1: they're all My advice is just go to costco, see

871
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 1: what's on sale, get them there, or you can get

872
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 1: the Amazon one.

873
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:40,359
Speaker 2: Now.

874
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 1: It also depends on what you want to control them with.

875
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 1: In my house, we're a Google house, so I need

876
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,160
Speaker 1: to make sure they work with Google Assistant. So there's

877
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 1: three things out there that they could possibly work with,

878
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: and some of them work with all three, but it's

879
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:55,399
Speaker 1: kind of rare to find all three.

880
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 2: Most of the time they work with two.

881
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,279
Speaker 1: Most of the time you'll find that they work with

882
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:03,920
Speaker 1: both the Google Assistant and Alexa. Sometimes you'll find that

883
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:06,399
Speaker 1: they only work with home Kit, which is Apple's which

884
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,400
Speaker 1: is struggled. There's just not as much for Apple as

885
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 1: there is for the other ones. But some of them

886
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: support all three, like I believe the Weimo from Belkan

887
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,360
Speaker 1: supports all three. And this is smart plug. They're a

888
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 1: little more expensive than the other ones. Right now, it's

889
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,399
Speaker 1: on sale for twenty five bucks for one plug, which

890
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 1: is a lot for one device to control. But once

891
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:27,880
Speaker 1: you set this up, you can control anything that's attached

892
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 1: to it, so for instance.

893
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 2: In my living room. I have a light in a

894
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:31,479
Speaker 2: smart plug.

895
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 1: It's a standard lamp that just comes on every night

896
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 1: at six pm and goes off at midnight. And just

897
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:38,399
Speaker 1: now sitting there on the couch last night and there

898
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 1: goes you hear the plug like turn on.

899
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:41,120
Speaker 3: Oh I like that.

900
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,040
Speaker 1: And you can do it that way, or you can

901
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 1: connect it to Google or Alexa and have it on

902
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,399
Speaker 1: a routine. You could have it, you could do whatever

903
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,160
Speaker 1: you want. Once this Wi Fi plug, it connects your WiFi.

904
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 1: By the way, once it's connected, the sky's the limit.

905
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 1: Some people have fans on these things, so you can

906
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 1: automatically have a fang one in your house. Now with that,

907
00:39:57,960 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 1: you have to make sure that it can support a

908
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: vice like that. You know, it depends on the rating,

909
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:03,960
Speaker 1: like it you'll see on the box. Some of them

910
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 1: are more rated for like Christmas lights. That's a great

911
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 1: example of something I always do my Christmas lights every

912
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:12,120
Speaker 1: year with these. But the I'm trying to see if

913
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 1: the Belkan one, but I would recommend a couple to

914
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 1: look at is the Yeah, this one works with Google Assistant,

915
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 1: Alexa and home Kit.

916
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 4: I think that's the segment that she's talking about is

917
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:23,440
Speaker 4: like a Christmas light.

918
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:25,320
Speaker 1: I know that was a long time ago though it

919
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: was like last year. But the Wemo Mini smart plug

920
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 1: is a good one. Amazon makes their own, which is good.

921
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 1: I like that one, and then the other one that

922
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 1: I like are actually a brand new one, I should say,

923
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 1: is from Why's. And this is the company that is

924
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 1: making a lot of budget products for home security. Now

925
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 1: they have a camera, they have sensors for your doors,

926
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 1: and now they have smart plugs. And for fifteen dollars

927
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:50,480
Speaker 1: you get a pair, which is.

928
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:51,919
Speaker 2: A two pack. That's pretty good.

929
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 1: Seven fifty for two of these plugs. That's going to

930
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 1: be shipping in September twenty nineteen. Those work with Amazon, Alexa,

931
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,680
Speaker 1: and Google Assistant, but not home Kit. But bottom line,

932
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,720
Speaker 1: go on Amazon and just see type in smart plug

933
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:07,799
Speaker 1: and kind of see what you like what's on sale.

934
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:09,479
Speaker 2: They all kind of work the same.

935
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 1: The only thing you have to be aware of if

936
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,360
Speaker 1: you buy the ones that are sort of like a

937
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:16,239
Speaker 1: Chinese brand, that are direct from China, it could be

938
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:18,320
Speaker 1: a little bit tougher to set up because the app

939
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,400
Speaker 1: might not be as good as a mainstream one. What

940
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 1: you really want to find is one where it doesn't

941
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 1: even require a third party app, so some of them

942
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,279
Speaker 1: you can just open up the Google Home app on

943
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 1: your phone and it will automatically set up. I'm not

944
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: sure if they have that yet with these plugs, but

945
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:36,319
Speaker 1: they do have it with light bulbs, and that's the

946
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,400
Speaker 1: easiest scenario where you don't have to really because most

947
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 1: of the time what you have to do is you

948
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:44,319
Speaker 1: plug in the plug, you download the Plugs app, you

949
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 1: sign in, you create an account, you get it all

950
00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,480
Speaker 1: set up, and then you link your account from that

951
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,680
Speaker 1: app to the Google Home or to the Alexa and

952
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 1: then you control it through the Alexa app out of

953
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,400
Speaker 1: the Google It's a lot, but it's fine. Once you

954
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,240
Speaker 1: do it once, it's pretty simple. Yeah, so it's pretty easy.
