WEBVTT - Modem Lease Fees and Editing Video on a Smartphone

0:00:09.119 --> 0:00:12.320
<v Speaker 1>What's going on. Rich DeMuro here, Rich on tech Live.

0:00:12.640 --> 0:00:15.200
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the show. This is where we talk about

0:00:15.200 --> 0:00:18.599
<v Speaker 1>technology and getting the most out of your gadgets. My

0:00:18.720 --> 0:00:20.720
<v Speaker 1>name is Rich Dmuro. I am your host. I'll be

0:00:20.800 --> 0:00:23.560
<v Speaker 1>leading you through the next forty five minutes to an

0:00:23.560 --> 0:00:28.440
<v Speaker 1>hour of tech questions and answers. We'll talk technology. Lots

0:00:28.440 --> 0:00:31.280
<v Speaker 1>of cool stuff happening in the tech world, like SpaceX

0:00:31.680 --> 0:00:35.280
<v Speaker 1>launching its first space Internet satellites. We've got what to

0:00:35.440 --> 0:00:39.240
<v Speaker 1>expect from the big mobile cell phone show that's gonna

0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:44.479
<v Speaker 1>happen this weekend in Barcelona. We've got the tragic the

0:00:44.560 --> 0:00:50.519
<v Speaker 1>tragic decision of iPhone versus Pixel. Amazon and Apple is

0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:53.960
<v Speaker 1>upgrading their AirPods. Lots of stuff going on. There's always

0:00:54.000 --> 0:00:56.360
<v Speaker 1>so many things happening in the tech world. We'll get

0:00:56.400 --> 0:00:59.240
<v Speaker 1>to hopefully all those stories. But most importantly, I will

0:00:59.240 --> 0:01:02.160
<v Speaker 1>be taking your phone phone calls at the phone number

0:01:02.240 --> 0:01:04.800
<v Speaker 1>you see three one zero five to nine four three

0:01:05.040 --> 0:01:08.440
<v Speaker 1>zero zero three three one zero five nine four three

0:01:08.560 --> 0:01:11.479
<v Speaker 1>zero zero three. If this is the first time you're

0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:13.480
<v Speaker 1>seeing me, well that's a surprise because I don't know

0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:16.000
<v Speaker 1>how you found me. But welcome to everyone watching on

0:01:16.080 --> 0:01:19.160
<v Speaker 1>Facebook Live. If you've done this before. Thanks so much

0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:21.800
<v Speaker 1>for joining me once again. You know that this is

0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:25.959
<v Speaker 1>all done by me, So I'm I'm like, I got

0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:28.320
<v Speaker 1>a lot of stuff going on here, so sometimes there's

0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:30.680
<v Speaker 1>little glitches, but most of the time it does work.

0:01:30.760 --> 0:01:33.640
<v Speaker 1>And primarily I'm here for you. I just want to

0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:35.960
<v Speaker 1>answer your tech question. So if you have one, go

0:01:36.000 --> 0:01:38.120
<v Speaker 1>ahead and dial me up on the phone line and

0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:40.720
<v Speaker 1>I will get to you to answer your tech questions.

0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:43.040
<v Speaker 1>And of course you can also leave a chat on

0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:45.520
<v Speaker 1>the Facebook Live and I will get to some of

0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:49.480
<v Speaker 1>those questions as well. So let's talk real quick, because

0:01:49.480 --> 0:01:54.400
<v Speaker 1>I find this so fascinating that SpaceX launched the first

0:01:54.520 --> 0:02:00.720
<v Speaker 1>of many many satellites. It launched two Space Internet satellites,

0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:06.000
<v Speaker 1>the first of nearly twelve thousand, So twelve thousand satellites

0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:08.160
<v Speaker 1>they're going to launch. And here's the thing we all

0:02:08.200 --> 0:02:12.600
<v Speaker 1>complain about our Internet, you know, Well, this is the

0:02:12.880 --> 0:02:15.880
<v Speaker 1>best part is that they want to blanket the entire

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:21.960
<v Speaker 1>United States with Space Internet. So this would just be amazing.

0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:25.640
<v Speaker 1>They would have a set of satellites, twelve thousand satellites

0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:28.840
<v Speaker 1>orbiting the Earth. And here's the thing. They're not stationary satellites.

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:32.400
<v Speaker 1>These satellites would move, so four thousand of them would

0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:35.000
<v Speaker 1>sit about seven hundred miles up, seventy five hundred of

0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:37.359
<v Speaker 1>them would sit about two hundred miles up, and they

0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:39.600
<v Speaker 1>have to move around at all times. And the Wall

0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Street Journal says that in twenty seventeen, the company expects

0:02:43.560 --> 0:02:46.840
<v Speaker 1>to have more than forty million subscribers to the service

0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:51.359
<v Speaker 1>by twenty twenty five, amounting to thirty billion dollars in revenue.

0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:55.960
<v Speaker 1>So this is a this is something big that's happening

0:02:55.960 --> 0:02:58.280
<v Speaker 1>in our world. So when we think about our internet,

0:02:58.280 --> 0:03:00.720
<v Speaker 1>one of the common complaints I get is I'm paying

0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:03.320
<v Speaker 1>too much and I'm not getting the best speed. And

0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:06.320
<v Speaker 1>if you have Internet that comes over like satellite already,

0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:08.160
<v Speaker 1>you know that it's painfully slow if you live out

0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:12.320
<v Speaker 1>in rural areas well. This is going to change all that. Apparently,

0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:14.520
<v Speaker 1>they're not going to put up satellites that put super

0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:16.799
<v Speaker 1>slow internet. This is gonna be fast Internet. I call

0:03:16.840 --> 0:03:19.440
<v Speaker 1>it laser internet because it just sounds so awesome. But

0:03:19.520 --> 0:03:21.840
<v Speaker 1>think about it. When you could blanket the entire Earth

0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:25.480
<v Speaker 1>and have a signal theoretically anywhere you go, what kind

0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:28.880
<v Speaker 1>of implications does that have for our technology, for our world,

0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:32.880
<v Speaker 1>and Elon Musk is really really killing it with all

0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:36.280
<v Speaker 1>his things that he's doing. So if you were in LA,

0:03:36.400 --> 0:03:39.760
<v Speaker 1>they did the second launch today, but obviously you might

0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:42.040
<v Speaker 1>be listening to this a little bit later, so this

0:03:42.120 --> 0:03:45.600
<v Speaker 1>is just the first of twelve thousand. Wow, that's so

0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:48.080
<v Speaker 1>crazy to think about. But here's the thing. Obviously this

0:03:48.120 --> 0:03:50.320
<v Speaker 1>is probably going to be pretty expensive at the beginning,

0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:52.880
<v Speaker 1>but the prices will come down over time, or maybe

0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:55.240
<v Speaker 1>it won't be that expensive. I remember when Sirius XM

0:03:55.320 --> 0:03:57.920
<v Speaker 1>launched and it was such a big deal because it

0:03:57.960 --> 0:03:59.400
<v Speaker 1>was the first time you could have a coast to

0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:02.000
<v Speaker 1>coast radio. Do you remember that was like in two

0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:04.240
<v Speaker 1>thousand or two thousand and one. They had billboards all

0:04:04.280 --> 0:04:07.600
<v Speaker 1>over LA when that happened. But now we're gonna see

0:04:07.600 --> 0:04:10.360
<v Speaker 1>the same thing with internet. So just imagine serious XM

0:04:10.440 --> 0:04:13.800
<v Speaker 1>radio but Internet anywhere you go. And yeah, there's some

0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:16.560
<v Speaker 1>dropouts here and there, but for the most part, the

0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:20.320
<v Speaker 1>reality of this is going to be amazing Internet everywhere

0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:22.840
<v Speaker 1>you go. I can't wait. Let's see what you guys

0:04:22.839 --> 0:04:27.039
<v Speaker 1>are saying on the Facebook Live. Joe says very cool,

0:04:28.040 --> 0:04:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Dominic says SpaceX great launch. Let's see what else we

0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:36.359
<v Speaker 1>have here. Let's see. Joe Anne says, I did not

0:04:36.440 --> 0:04:39.200
<v Speaker 1>know SpaceX was about the Internet, so cool, though I'm

0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:42.120
<v Speaker 1>worried about the lack of net neutrality though, yeah, I

0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:44.560
<v Speaker 1>hear you, the lack of net neutrality. This is a

0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:48.200
<v Speaker 1>private enterprise, so you know, we'll see what happens with this.

0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:51.440
<v Speaker 1>But I have good feelings for Elon. I feel like

0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:54.280
<v Speaker 1>he does the right thing and I think he's looking

0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:58.080
<v Speaker 1>out for us. And Chris says Serious was like eight

0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:00.880
<v Speaker 1>bucks a month, so yeah, that's the funny thing about

0:05:00.880 --> 0:05:03.479
<v Speaker 1>Serious XM. It started out really cheap, and it just

0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:07.560
<v Speaker 1>keeps getting more and more expensive. So yeah, I don't

0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:09.359
<v Speaker 1>know about that one. We'll see. We'll see how expensive

0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:11.920
<v Speaker 1>satellite internet is, all right. Phone lines open three one

0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:16.200
<v Speaker 1>zero five nine four three zero zero three three one

0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:19.200
<v Speaker 1>zero five nine four three zero zero three. Michael says

0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:22.200
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be a big boon to autonomous driving,

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:25.839
<v Speaker 1>and Kat says, I love the idea of internet everywhere,

0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:29.520
<v Speaker 1>especially for my husband. All right, let's get to our ope.

0:05:29.560 --> 0:05:32.080
<v Speaker 1>We had our first caller that got a little little

0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:35.560
<v Speaker 1>shy there, so they hung up there they are, all right,

0:05:35.880 --> 0:05:38.440
<v Speaker 1>first caller five five nine, you're on with Rich. Who

0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:39.080
<v Speaker 1>am I speaking with?

0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:43.920
<v Speaker 2>Hey Rich, this is Wayne from Presde California. Hey Wayne,

0:05:45.040 --> 0:05:45.640
<v Speaker 2>how's it going.

0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:48.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing great? How are you doing good?

0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:49.120
<v Speaker 3>Good?

0:05:49.279 --> 0:05:53.240
<v Speaker 2>Thanks thanks for taking my call. Watch you on KTLA

0:05:53.320 --> 0:05:55.400
<v Speaker 2>whenever I can get in the LA area.

0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:56.400
<v Speaker 1>So awesome.

0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:57.599
<v Speaker 2>Thanks for doing the show.

0:05:57.760 --> 0:05:58.280
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for.

0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:07.160
<v Speaker 2>I am looking into getting a Wi Fi router because

0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:12.120
<v Speaker 2>my Apple expressions are pretty much fight in the dust.

0:06:12.440 --> 0:06:18.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm looking at the Eero. Okay, what do you think

0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:20.800
<v Speaker 2>about the Euro? I know it's very expensive.

0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:23.160
<v Speaker 1>Yes, it's very expensive. Here's the deal. That's the one

0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:26.440
<v Speaker 1>that I have. It is the best, in my opinion.

0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:29.600
<v Speaker 1>I've tried a couple of them. I love the Euro because,

0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:32.960
<v Speaker 1>first off, they invented the category. So basically, while everyone

0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:35.680
<v Speaker 1>else was doing these extenders and boosters, Ero was like,

0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 1>you know what, let's just do something totally different. And

0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:39.680
<v Speaker 1>it's been around for a couple of years. Like I

0:06:39.800 --> 0:06:42.159
<v Speaker 1>used to see that sees. The problem was it was

0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:46.200
<v Speaker 1>prohibitively expensive. Now it's just expensive. But I will tell

0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:49.680
<v Speaker 1>you the setup is simple, the service is amazing. The

0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:53.160
<v Speaker 1>actual devices are super clean. They fit in. If you're

0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:56.000
<v Speaker 1>an Apple guy, you had an airport extreme you clearly

0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:59.279
<v Speaker 1>like design. These things are well designed. And I will

0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:02.320
<v Speaker 1>tell you I pay for one hundred Internet all around

0:07:02.320 --> 0:07:05.640
<v Speaker 1>my house. You know, that's what comes in at the source,

0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:08.400
<v Speaker 1>and I get one hundred down every single corner of

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:11.000
<v Speaker 1>my house. My father in law, who has a larger

0:07:11.040 --> 0:07:13.520
<v Speaker 1>home than I do, we install this in his place.

0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:16.960
<v Speaker 1>And he used to have spotty, spotty internet everywhere. We

0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:18.840
<v Speaker 1>used to have all kinds of extenders and all stuff

0:07:18.880 --> 0:07:21.160
<v Speaker 1>going on. In his place. We put euro in. He's

0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:24.480
<v Speaker 1>gotten four or five of those things in every corner.

0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:26.560
<v Speaker 1>And I'm telling you, he gets a hundred in every

0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:31.400
<v Speaker 1>corner of his house. It is unbelievable. The only other

0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:34.760
<v Speaker 1>one that now here's the downside, Wayne, is that Eero

0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:37.120
<v Speaker 1>is a startup. You heard that they just laid off

0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:39.400
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of people a couple of weeks ago. So

0:07:39.440 --> 0:07:43.400
<v Speaker 1>there's always yeah, so there's always the risk of Euroo

0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:47.440
<v Speaker 1>going under. And if they go under, then you know,

0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:51.960
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't bode very well for the system because it

0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:56.040
<v Speaker 1>is it is a Wi Fi system. Now, it probably

0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:58.800
<v Speaker 1>would rely on their back end servers and things like

0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:02.360
<v Speaker 1>that to operate like your standard Wi Fi router or

0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:06.120
<v Speaker 1>your standard router. I guess I should say that would

0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:08.320
<v Speaker 1>still pretty much work. Now there's a couple other ones

0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:11.680
<v Speaker 1>out there. Let's see what's the other one that people like.

0:08:11.680 --> 0:08:14.120
<v Speaker 1>I think it's called Orby is the other one that

0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:17.480
<v Speaker 1>people like as well, and this is Netgear. Now, Netgear's

0:08:17.480 --> 0:08:20.920
<v Speaker 1>been around forever and Orby is their big brand. So

0:08:20.960 --> 0:08:22.600
<v Speaker 1>you can kind of compare those and see which one

0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:25.360
<v Speaker 1>you like. But personally, I love my hero. I think

0:08:25.400 --> 0:08:27.800
<v Speaker 1>it's fantastic and I would go with it for sure,

0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:28.600
<v Speaker 1>And you're gonna love.

0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:34.040
<v Speaker 2>It fantastic, thank you very much. Yeah, it's my expresses

0:08:34.120 --> 0:08:38.120
<v Speaker 2>and my extremes are slowly as taking a dive. And

0:08:38.679 --> 0:08:41.120
<v Speaker 2>since Apple's that gonna supported anymore, I need to move

0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:42.000
<v Speaker 2>on as something else.

0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:46.199
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think I think you'll be really happy with it.

0:08:46.200 --> 0:08:48.079
<v Speaker 1>It's just great how you can manage it too. It's

0:08:48.120 --> 0:08:50.559
<v Speaker 1>all from your phone. The way you set them up

0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:53.680
<v Speaker 1>is all through your smartphone. It actually tells you, like, hey,

0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:55.640
<v Speaker 1>you need to put this in a little bit further

0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:58.160
<v Speaker 1>away or a little bit closer, and you can add

0:08:58.200 --> 0:09:00.559
<v Speaker 1>onto your system as you go along. So I told

0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:03.320
<v Speaker 1>this story last show, but basically I was at my

0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:05.840
<v Speaker 1>brother in law's house and his internet was pretty spotty.

0:09:06.040 --> 0:09:07.600
<v Speaker 1>And I said, look, we got to go out and

0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:09.880
<v Speaker 1>get you Eero. And we went to best Buy and

0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:11.280
<v Speaker 1>I kind of talked to the best Buy guy because

0:09:11.320 --> 0:09:13.560
<v Speaker 1>I love euro and he said, well, Orby's also selling

0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:17.160
<v Speaker 1>pretty hot. But you know, I decided on the Ero

0:09:17.200 --> 0:09:18.559
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the day because that's the one

0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:21.120
<v Speaker 1>I have, and he just loves it. So he and

0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:22.960
<v Speaker 1>he has more stuff than I do. He's got all

0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:25.520
<v Speaker 1>kinds of cameras and all kinds of stuff set up

0:09:25.559 --> 0:09:29.480
<v Speaker 1>in his place, Chrome Cast Sonos, and it's handling it

0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:31.960
<v Speaker 1>like a champ. So you'll be very happy.

0:09:33.200 --> 0:09:35.760
<v Speaker 2>All right, Thank you so much for your time.

0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:38.240
<v Speaker 1>All right, Wayne, thanks for calling in. I appreciate it.

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:42.240
<v Speaker 1>Phone number is three one zero five nine four three

0:09:42.440 --> 0:09:45.080
<v Speaker 1>zero zero three. Let's just go right to seven one

0:09:45.160 --> 0:09:47.360
<v Speaker 1>four seven one four. You're on with Rich. Who might

0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:49.440
<v Speaker 1>I speaking with Rich?

0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:52.320
<v Speaker 4>It's Debbie and I'm calling you back from last show

0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:55.000
<v Speaker 4>because you did recommend to be getting the Orby and

0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:55.760
<v Speaker 4>I purchased it.

0:09:56.360 --> 0:09:59.080
<v Speaker 1>Love it and you love it? Okay, So how was

0:09:59.120 --> 0:10:01.120
<v Speaker 1>it to set up? How much was it? First?

0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:03.680
<v Speaker 4>Super easy on Amazon?

0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:05.680
<v Speaker 2>It was about two hundred and fifty.

0:10:05.360 --> 0:10:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Bucks okay for what that's a two packs the.

0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:12.040
<v Speaker 4>Two pack, but it covers five thousand square feet, so

0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:16.600
<v Speaker 4>it's more than enough. And the setup was super easy.

0:10:16.840 --> 0:10:19.440
<v Speaker 4>It was literally plug it in and it walked you

0:10:19.520 --> 0:10:21.920
<v Speaker 4>through on the app on your phone how to do it.

0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:26.480
<v Speaker 4>And I can't even say enough about it. I'm getting

0:10:26.480 --> 0:10:29.840
<v Speaker 4>great speeds. I'm getting over one hundred speed, which is bizark,

0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:31.200
<v Speaker 4>So I'm not paying for over one hundred.

0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:33.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, mine will go up to one twenty sometimes and

0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:34.960
<v Speaker 1>I pay for one hundred. I think it's just the

0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:37.200
<v Speaker 1>way the networks are set up. They you know, they

0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:39.480
<v Speaker 1>can regulate them only I'm sure there's a plus or

0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:42.040
<v Speaker 1>minus a little bit on each side. And so what

0:10:42.080 --> 0:10:43.600
<v Speaker 1>are you able to do now? So what were you

0:10:43.679 --> 0:10:45.880
<v Speaker 1>not able to do before? And what can you do now?

0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:51.120
<v Speaker 4>I had just a ton of dead spots throughout my

0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:55.800
<v Speaker 4>house and I work from home. My speeds were really slow.

0:10:56.040 --> 0:10:58.360
<v Speaker 4>I was dropping calls on my phone. So now I

0:10:58.400 --> 0:11:00.840
<v Speaker 4>hook up Wi Fi, you know, call on my phone too,

0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:04.200
<v Speaker 4>no issues, and we can you know, we can. I

0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:06.840
<v Speaker 4>can use my laptop, somebody else can be on the

0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:11.319
<v Speaker 4>computer and we just don't have any issues with any connection. Connectivity.

0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:14.520
<v Speaker 1>Isn't that Isn't that amazing? Because for so many years. Okay,

0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:16.520
<v Speaker 1>so here's how Wi Fi this was like the progression

0:11:16.559 --> 0:11:18.839
<v Speaker 1>of Wi Fi. First off, we get Wi Fi and

0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:21.440
<v Speaker 1>we're just like amazed that it works right. And then

0:11:21.480 --> 0:11:23.240
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden we start to do all this

0:11:23.360 --> 0:11:25.880
<v Speaker 1>stuff and Wi Fi can't really keep up, and now

0:11:25.920 --> 0:11:28.439
<v Speaker 1>we hate Wi Fi because it never works right. And

0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:30.880
<v Speaker 1>now we're back to this world with these new systems

0:11:31.080 --> 0:11:34.080
<v Speaker 1>where Wi Fi is actually amazing. And when you have

0:11:34.120 --> 0:11:36.480
<v Speaker 1>one of these systems and you see how great your

0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:40.120
<v Speaker 1>internet connection can be everywhere, it really does open up

0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:41.880
<v Speaker 1>your mind again because you're like, oh, wait a second,

0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:44.960
<v Speaker 1>I can use my computer outside a little bit, you know,

0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:47.439
<v Speaker 1>outside my back door, or I can use this there.

0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:50.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm also looking at the ORB website and I like

0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:54.200
<v Speaker 1>how it has the ports on the back too. That's

0:11:54.200 --> 0:11:57.680
<v Speaker 1>something that you need to look at because when you're.

0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:00.960
<v Speaker 4>Shopping for we have our TV put plugged directly into

0:12:01.000 --> 0:12:02.760
<v Speaker 4>that too for that piece of it. So when we

0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:06.679
<v Speaker 4>use our smart TV, yeah, it runs much faster hardwire.

0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:08.280
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, it's awesome.

0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:10.480
<v Speaker 1>That is one benefit. Because the new some of the

0:12:10.880 --> 0:12:14.000
<v Speaker 1>on my eurosystem, they have these things called beacons, and

0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:17.120
<v Speaker 1>they actually ditched the Ethernet jacks on the back of those,

0:12:17.160 --> 0:12:20.360
<v Speaker 1>which I don't like because the original eros all had them.

0:12:20.720 --> 0:12:22.400
<v Speaker 1>So that is something to look out for if you're

0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:24.920
<v Speaker 1>if you're buying one of these systems, you know, think

0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:27.160
<v Speaker 1>about that you want to have an Ethernet port on

0:12:27.200 --> 0:12:29.079
<v Speaker 1>the back of these things, or at least some of them,

0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:30.600
<v Speaker 1>because you want to have that option. Like here in

0:12:30.600 --> 0:12:34.280
<v Speaker 1>my office, I do want a wired ethernet because sometimes

0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:36.679
<v Speaker 1>I need to plug in like a server or right

0:12:36.720 --> 0:12:40.120
<v Speaker 1>now my computer is plugged in hardwire. So that's just

0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:42.280
<v Speaker 1>one consideration to have. But the more you know about

0:12:42.280 --> 0:12:45.400
<v Speaker 1>these things, the better. So I'm glad to hear that

0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:46.720
<v Speaker 1>you like it. And did you set it up all

0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:47.559
<v Speaker 1>by yourself or what.

0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:49.880
<v Speaker 4>I did it all by myself?

0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:50.720
<v Speaker 1>How long did that take?

0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:53.760
<v Speaker 4>And it's like probably fifteen twenty minutes and it was up.

0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:55.959
<v Speaker 1>And running, Debbie, I'd love to hear it. Well, I'm

0:12:55.960 --> 0:12:58.240
<v Speaker 1>glad that you called me and said you liked what

0:12:58.320 --> 0:13:00.679
<v Speaker 1>I recommended, and not not to call me and tell

0:13:00.720 --> 0:13:02.080
<v Speaker 1>me you hated what I recommended.

0:13:02.679 --> 0:13:06.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, thanks for your help and our family much easier.

0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:08.840
<v Speaker 1>In the house, beautiful. Thanks so much for watching and

0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:12.480
<v Speaker 1>calling in again for the update. I do appreciate it. Debbie,

0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:15.200
<v Speaker 1>thanks so much. Wow, that's so cool. I love hearing

0:13:15.200 --> 0:13:19.280
<v Speaker 1>this stuff. So Wayne says that the euro Pro has

0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:23.880
<v Speaker 1>Ethernet jacks, which is good. Dominic says, what about Luma? Okay,

0:13:23.920 --> 0:13:25.760
<v Speaker 1>So here's the deal with Luma. That's the first one

0:13:25.760 --> 0:13:29.199
<v Speaker 1>that I purchased, and I bought it because Amazon backed

0:13:29.240 --> 0:13:31.560
<v Speaker 1>the company, and so I said, well, clearly they're going

0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:33.440
<v Speaker 1>to be around forever. And I haven't heard anything about

0:13:33.440 --> 0:13:36.200
<v Speaker 1>them ever since. So I had them for two years

0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:38.200
<v Speaker 1>or so and it was great. The system is great.

0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:40.000
<v Speaker 1>In fact, I've got it in a box and I'm

0:13:40.000 --> 0:13:41.800
<v Speaker 1>gonna bring it to my dad's place and I'm gonna

0:13:41.800 --> 0:13:44.240
<v Speaker 1>set it up at his house because he really needs

0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:48.560
<v Speaker 1>the internet connection there. So it is working. It's just

0:13:49.160 --> 0:13:51.600
<v Speaker 1>I just don't know what the deal is with Luma.

0:13:51.640 --> 0:13:55.440
<v Speaker 1>I haven't really heard much about that. So this weekend

0:13:55.800 --> 0:14:00.640
<v Speaker 1>is the big Mobile World Congress, which is happening in Barcelona, Spain.

0:14:01.000 --> 0:14:03.040
<v Speaker 1>I've actually never been to this show. I've been to

0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:05.120
<v Speaker 1>so many of these little tech shows all over the world.

0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:08.520
<v Speaker 1>Mobile World Congress I have not been to, which is crazy.

0:14:09.480 --> 0:14:11.400
<v Speaker 1>But it is one of these big tech shows and

0:14:11.480 --> 0:14:13.800
<v Speaker 1>they show off a lot of new phones. But here's

0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:16.880
<v Speaker 1>the thing. The problem with all of these tech shows

0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:18.960
<v Speaker 1>at this point is that Number one, a lot of

0:14:19.000 --> 0:14:21.640
<v Speaker 1>these tech companies will have meetings with you before, they

0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:24.840
<v Speaker 1>call them pre briefings, so I can meet with them

0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:28.720
<v Speaker 1>early and get the same information as going to Barcelona

0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:30.600
<v Speaker 1>without the trip. Now, don't get me wrong, I want

0:14:30.640 --> 0:14:33.600
<v Speaker 1>to go to Barcelona. It just so happened that this trip,

0:14:34.080 --> 0:14:36.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, kind of springs up on me. At KTLA,

0:14:36.440 --> 0:14:38.000
<v Speaker 1>there's certain times in the year when I don't like

0:14:38.080 --> 0:14:41.120
<v Speaker 1>to take any time to travel because we're in special

0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:44.840
<v Speaker 1>like right now, it's called SWEEPS, which means you kind

0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:47.000
<v Speaker 1>of want all hands on deck because it's a ratings

0:14:47.040 --> 0:14:49.320
<v Speaker 1>period at KTLA, so you want to be there every day.

0:14:49.480 --> 0:14:51.280
<v Speaker 1>So if I'm out traveling, that means that I'm not

0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:53.520
<v Speaker 1>in studio, and they don't like that, and neither do I.

0:14:53.560 --> 0:14:55.480
<v Speaker 1>That's just kind of the rule of thumb with SWEEPS.

0:14:55.680 --> 0:14:58.160
<v Speaker 1>So anyway, I'm not going. But here's the thing. We're

0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:00.240
<v Speaker 1>gonna see new cell phones in the next week or

0:15:00.280 --> 0:15:07.000
<v Speaker 1>so from Samsung, LG, Sony, Motorola, and perhaps BlackBerry, So

0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:08.720
<v Speaker 1>you got to keep an eye out for that news.

0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:11.479
<v Speaker 1>I know that I'm gonna have some news with Samsung

0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:14.920
<v Speaker 1>with their new phones, if you can believe it, their

0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:18.040
<v Speaker 1>new devices. We're already due for an upgrade on those,

0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:21.080
<v Speaker 1>so we've seen a lot of rumors online about that.

0:15:21.280 --> 0:15:24.080
<v Speaker 1>But we're supposed to hear I think they said it's

0:15:24.120 --> 0:15:27.560
<v Speaker 1>a twenty fifth is when we're gonna hear about Samsung. Yeah,

0:15:27.560 --> 0:15:30.280
<v Speaker 1>that's Sunday. So Sunday the twenty fifth is when we'll

0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:34.000
<v Speaker 1>hear about the Galaxy S nine, and I'm assuming S

0:15:34.120 --> 0:15:38.240
<v Speaker 1>nine plus LG they're gonna have a new phone. The

0:15:38.280 --> 0:15:40.960
<v Speaker 1>problem is, man, when it comes to phones, it has

0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:45.120
<v Speaker 1>really become a two horse race, like Apple and Samsung

0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:47.720
<v Speaker 1>commands so much to the market and everyone else is

0:15:47.800 --> 0:15:51.080
<v Speaker 1>just trying to get the scraps. But if I had

0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:53.640
<v Speaker 1>to recommend other phones that I'm really loving these days

0:15:53.680 --> 0:15:57.120
<v Speaker 1>outside of those two big powerhouse devices. Obviously, the Google

0:15:57.120 --> 0:16:00.120
<v Speaker 1>Pixel is great, but it's a very small device. It

0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:02.440
<v Speaker 1>only appeals to a certain amount of people. It's got

0:16:02.480 --> 0:16:05.080
<v Speaker 1>the best camera. But Motorola is doing really nice stuff

0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:07.840
<v Speaker 1>with their lineup of it's like the Z four or

0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:11.720
<v Speaker 1>something like that. They've got some really nice devices there.

0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:14.880
<v Speaker 1>And then LG I really we got to figure out

0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:17.359
<v Speaker 1>what's going on with them, because I was really disappointed

0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:21.240
<v Speaker 1>with their last phone, the G six, And hopefully they

0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:23.480
<v Speaker 1>will upgrade their camera and make things a little bit better.

0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:25.480
<v Speaker 1>I love the design of it. It's just other than that,

0:16:25.800 --> 0:16:28.320
<v Speaker 1>it was not that great. All right, phone line, it

0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:30.800
<v Speaker 1>is open three one zero five to nine four three

0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:33.840
<v Speaker 1>zero zero three three one zero five to nine four

0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:38.680
<v Speaker 1>three zero zero three. And Allison says, I loved my BlackBerry. Yes,

0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:42.320
<v Speaker 1>we all loved our Blackberries back in the day. MJ says, wow,

0:16:42.400 --> 0:16:46.560
<v Speaker 1>BlackBerry is making a comeback. And yes, they do have

0:16:46.600 --> 0:16:49.680
<v Speaker 1>a BlackBerry. It's called the key one that they came

0:16:49.720 --> 0:16:51.600
<v Speaker 1>out with last year, and I think they're gonna come

0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:54.040
<v Speaker 1>up with something this year again. And MJ says, wow,

0:16:54.160 --> 0:16:57.520
<v Speaker 1>is BlackBerry making a comeback? And Alison said, is pixel

0:16:57.600 --> 0:17:00.920
<v Speaker 1>really that great? Yes, it is great. It is. Here's

0:17:00.960 --> 0:17:03.680
<v Speaker 1>the deal, and this leads me to my next story. Actually,

0:17:05.359 --> 0:17:08.439
<v Speaker 1>the pixel is not just great. It is phenomenal, Like

0:17:08.480 --> 0:17:12.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking leaps and bounds ahead of any device that

0:17:12.560 --> 0:17:14.520
<v Speaker 1>I've ever tested when it comes to their camera. But

0:17:14.600 --> 0:17:18.159
<v Speaker 1>here's the secret of it. The camera is really not

0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:21.840
<v Speaker 1>that good. It's actually what Google is doing in the

0:17:21.880 --> 0:17:25.160
<v Speaker 1>background of processing your pictures, so I call them fake

0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:31.520
<v Speaker 1>pictures because they're so Google is actually using artificial intelligence

0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:34.879
<v Speaker 1>to affect them. So that's really what's happening with your picture.

0:17:35.000 --> 0:17:37.879
<v Speaker 1>So these other companies really have to catch up with that.

0:17:38.160 --> 0:17:40.080
<v Speaker 1>And I'm really talking about the low light pictures. That's

0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:42.199
<v Speaker 1>where it counts. All right, eight and eight you're on

0:17:42.240 --> 0:17:43.400
<v Speaker 1>with rich Who am I speaking with?

0:17:44.359 --> 0:17:44.560
<v Speaker 3>Hey?

0:17:44.680 --> 0:17:45.000
<v Speaker 1>Richard?

0:17:45.040 --> 0:17:45.960
<v Speaker 5>Steve? How you doing?

0:17:46.080 --> 0:17:49.080
<v Speaker 1>Oh Steve, I'm doing fantastic. Where are you calling from?

0:17:50.200 --> 0:17:52.520
<v Speaker 5>Calling from the San Fernanda Valley up here North Hills?

0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:55.400
<v Speaker 1>All right, awesome? What's on your Lineah?

0:17:56.520 --> 0:17:58.280
<v Speaker 5>A few things. I mean, you've been talking to the

0:17:58.280 --> 0:18:02.040
<v Speaker 5>a couple folks about the the routers and modems. I

0:18:02.040 --> 0:18:07.920
<v Speaker 5>guess those are combined units. I assume yes, they received

0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:11.320
<v Speaker 5>the signal from the ISP and then do the do

0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:15.240
<v Speaker 5>the sharing throughout the house without having two devices, right?

0:18:15.359 --> 0:18:18.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean you still need the you still need

0:18:18.359 --> 0:18:20.920
<v Speaker 1>kind of the modem, the cable modem that comes in

0:18:21.400 --> 0:18:23.560
<v Speaker 1>your house, so I mean you connect to that and

0:18:23.600 --> 0:18:26.600
<v Speaker 1>then yes, the router wireless can it handles everything else

0:18:26.600 --> 0:18:27.040
<v Speaker 1>from there?

0:18:28.040 --> 0:18:28.399
<v Speaker 3>Okay?

0:18:28.480 --> 0:18:31.520
<v Speaker 5>And I'm actually myself a Google pixel user.

0:18:32.960 --> 0:18:34.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they know when I'm on the phone, how

0:18:34.440 --> 0:18:35.359
<v Speaker 1>good are the pictures?

0:18:35.480 --> 0:18:35.680
<v Speaker 3>Off?

0:18:35.720 --> 0:18:40.600
<v Speaker 5>The pixel pictures are fantastic. I come from using Samsung

0:18:41.080 --> 0:18:43.160
<v Speaker 5>S three and then S five, and then I didn't

0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:46.600
<v Speaker 5>upgrade because I know S five was so good at

0:18:46.600 --> 0:18:49.760
<v Speaker 5>what it did, and then it just became time. The

0:18:49.920 --> 0:18:54.760
<v Speaker 5>S five was just you know, taking a dump and decided, okay,

0:18:54.840 --> 0:18:57.800
<v Speaker 5>well let's go see what's out there. And everybody was

0:18:57.840 --> 0:18:59.919
<v Speaker 5>going to USB three, so I had to make the

0:19:00.040 --> 0:19:06.120
<v Speaker 5>switch anyways, and or USBC, I mean the new charging thing.

0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:08.760
<v Speaker 5>So we went ahead and went with the Pixel. My

0:19:08.800 --> 0:19:11.600
<v Speaker 5>wife and I both have the same phone, and it

0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:14.160
<v Speaker 5>took you know, took me about ten minutes. And then

0:19:14.400 --> 0:19:16.760
<v Speaker 5>you know, learn that there's a couple of little different things,

0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:19.240
<v Speaker 5>but it's still an Android interface, so I'm used to that,

0:19:19.359 --> 0:19:23.719
<v Speaker 5>having never had an iPhone. And yeah, but I'm trying

0:19:23.760 --> 0:19:28.399
<v Speaker 5>to think about switching to either an integrated modem router

0:19:28.840 --> 0:19:32.200
<v Speaker 5>setup or because I don't want to pay the ISP

0:19:32.640 --> 0:19:36.120
<v Speaker 5>to lease or rent whatever it is the modem and

0:19:36.560 --> 0:19:38.639
<v Speaker 5>I have dead spots like you're talking about. I have

0:19:38.680 --> 0:19:41.560
<v Speaker 5>an extender in my living room because the router's back

0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:43.560
<v Speaker 5>in the office and my house is not that big.

0:19:44.160 --> 0:19:47.080
<v Speaker 5>But I'm trying to think, what's what's my next step

0:19:47.160 --> 0:19:50.399
<v Speaker 5>to upgrade my service? So I can, you know, stream

0:19:50.440 --> 0:19:53.320
<v Speaker 5>and watch videos and do hangouts from my garage which

0:19:53.359 --> 0:19:55.000
<v Speaker 5>is just on the other side of the kitchen wall.

0:19:55.640 --> 0:19:57.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean, these systems that we're talking about are

0:19:57.840 --> 0:20:00.159
<v Speaker 1>definitely going to help you do that. But now, who

0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:01.520
<v Speaker 1>do you have for your internet provider?

0:20:02.760 --> 0:20:03.480
<v Speaker 5>Just Spectrum?

0:20:03.560 --> 0:20:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Okay? Now, they don't charge a rental fee anymore for

0:20:06.119 --> 0:20:06.760
<v Speaker 1>their modems.

0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:09.880
<v Speaker 5>They don't. I haven't looked at my bill lately because

0:20:09.880 --> 0:20:12.000
<v Speaker 5>they don't send me one. It's just digital.

0:20:12.119 --> 0:20:13.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, as far as I know, and you may want

0:20:13.760 --> 0:20:15.440
<v Speaker 1>to check. Maybe you're on an old plan. I don't

0:20:15.440 --> 0:20:17.440
<v Speaker 1>know how long you've had it, but I've got Spectrum.

0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:20.480
<v Speaker 1>I switched last year from you Verse Verse. I did

0:20:20.520 --> 0:20:22.520
<v Speaker 1>pay a rental fee. This one. I do not pay

0:20:22.520 --> 0:20:26.080
<v Speaker 1>a rental fee, and as far as I know, they've

0:20:26.160 --> 0:20:29.119
<v Speaker 1>kind of mixed that into the price. So that's the

0:20:29.240 --> 0:20:29.639
<v Speaker 1>number one.

0:20:29.840 --> 0:20:31.840
<v Speaker 5>Well, yeah, and my price went up too, so I

0:20:31.840 --> 0:20:34.880
<v Speaker 5>don't know what they what they're getting me for now.

0:20:35.280 --> 0:20:38.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, see what they're getting. I mean, I pay forty

0:20:38.040 --> 0:20:40.080
<v Speaker 1>five dollars a month. I signed up on a promotion

0:20:40.359 --> 0:20:42.560
<v Speaker 1>which is probably ending any day now because I signed

0:20:42.600 --> 0:20:45.600
<v Speaker 1>up about a year ago, so I think they want

0:20:45.600 --> 0:20:47.320
<v Speaker 1>it to go up to sixty five a month, which

0:20:47.359 --> 0:20:49.120
<v Speaker 1>I'll call them back and I'll just kind of ask,

0:20:49.160 --> 0:20:51.399
<v Speaker 1>you know, hey, can I get this promotion again? Because

0:20:51.640 --> 0:20:53.800
<v Speaker 1>where I live, right, you have a couple of providers

0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:55.879
<v Speaker 1>that I can choose from, so I can always switch

0:20:55.920 --> 0:20:59.160
<v Speaker 1>to a different one if the price is better, you know, right.

0:20:59.240 --> 0:21:02.119
<v Speaker 5>And I kind of had that too, where my price

0:21:02.200 --> 0:21:06.240
<v Speaker 5>was about fifty bucks and I was getting fifty megabits

0:21:06.320 --> 0:21:08.320
<v Speaker 5>or whatever it is, and that was cool, and then

0:21:08.359 --> 0:21:10.560
<v Speaker 5>they tried to jump it up like double the price.

0:21:10.600 --> 0:21:12.679
<v Speaker 5>So I called and they said, okay, well we can

0:21:12.720 --> 0:21:15.679
<v Speaker 5>do one hundred for sixty or sixty five. And then

0:21:15.720 --> 0:21:17.879
<v Speaker 5>I ran that for a year and now I'm up

0:21:17.920 --> 0:21:21.679
<v Speaker 5>to ninety bucks and I don't I don't know if

0:21:21.680 --> 0:21:23.640
<v Speaker 5>I'm still getting one hundred or if I'm also getting

0:21:23.760 --> 0:21:27.320
<v Speaker 5>charged for the for the Router modem unit or I

0:21:27.320 --> 0:21:28.719
<v Speaker 5>don't know what's going on, but I got to take

0:21:28.760 --> 0:21:30.600
<v Speaker 5>a look at it, and, like you said, just call

0:21:30.680 --> 0:21:32.879
<v Speaker 5>them and say, hey, you know what happened to my

0:21:32.920 --> 0:21:36.000
<v Speaker 5>promotional price? What you got going today? Yes, exactly because

0:21:36.080 --> 0:21:37.120
<v Speaker 5>usually they do, right.

0:21:37.320 --> 0:21:39.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, and you know, and I did read an

0:21:39.320 --> 0:21:41.240
<v Speaker 1>article that said Spectrum was going to try to do

0:21:41.320 --> 0:21:43.440
<v Speaker 1>away with a lot of the promotions, like they're trying

0:21:43.440 --> 0:21:45.400
<v Speaker 1>to get a you know, because everyone knows as long

0:21:45.400 --> 0:21:48.000
<v Speaker 1>as I've had cable internet for you know, many many

0:21:48.080 --> 0:21:50.800
<v Speaker 1>years now, every year you call up and you get

0:21:50.800 --> 0:21:53.119
<v Speaker 1>a new deal. And I think Spectrum they had a

0:21:53.320 --> 0:21:56.119
<v Speaker 1>stat that like people were on like eighty thousand different

0:21:56.119 --> 0:21:59.040
<v Speaker 1>plans or something insane across the US. Oh geez. So

0:21:59.080 --> 0:22:01.119
<v Speaker 1>they did do a good job of kind of streamlining

0:22:01.119 --> 0:22:02.840
<v Speaker 1>the plans. So I do know that, like if you

0:22:02.880 --> 0:22:05.640
<v Speaker 1>call Spectrum, they have like one hundred or three hundred available,

0:22:05.680 --> 0:22:09.080
<v Speaker 1>that's basically it. But then the prices, they're trying to

0:22:09.080 --> 0:22:11.440
<v Speaker 1>make them so that they're pretty streamlined. So just call

0:22:11.480 --> 0:22:13.040
<v Speaker 1>them up and see what they say. That's that's what

0:22:13.080 --> 0:22:15.399
<v Speaker 1>i'd say. But yeah, when it comes to your cable modem,

0:22:15.400 --> 0:22:17.480
<v Speaker 1>you probably don't pay for that. But I would definitely

0:22:17.520 --> 0:22:20.560
<v Speaker 1>look into the Euros of the world or the Orbi's

0:22:20.600 --> 0:22:22.879
<v Speaker 1>of the world and see which one works for you.

0:22:22.960 --> 0:22:25.360
<v Speaker 1>And also just go on Amazon, read some of the reviews,

0:22:25.400 --> 0:22:27.280
<v Speaker 1>read some of the pros, and cons and see what

0:22:27.320 --> 0:22:29.520
<v Speaker 1>people like. But you're going to see a world of

0:22:29.560 --> 0:22:31.920
<v Speaker 1>difference with the Internet that you have. Like I say

0:22:31.960 --> 0:22:35.040
<v Speaker 1>to people, you're actually getting the Internet that you pay

0:22:35.119 --> 0:22:38.760
<v Speaker 1>for when you get one of these services. So Steve, yeah,

0:22:39.400 --> 0:22:43.960
<v Speaker 1>oh I lose you. So Steve, I think that that's

0:22:44.000 --> 0:22:46.439
<v Speaker 1>really where you're at. I think I've lost you. But

0:22:46.760 --> 0:22:49.520
<v Speaker 1>you got the gist there. John Gris says, is Google

0:22:49.560 --> 0:22:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Fiber worth it? Absolutely? If you can get Google Fiber

0:22:52.080 --> 0:22:54.600
<v Speaker 1>where you are, go for Google Fiber. As far as

0:22:54.640 --> 0:22:57.600
<v Speaker 1>I know, it's about seventy dollars seventy five dollars to

0:22:57.640 --> 0:22:59.919
<v Speaker 1>get that, but you get a gig down which is

0:23:00.040 --> 0:23:02.200
<v Speaker 1>ten times faster than what I have at home, which

0:23:02.240 --> 0:23:05.359
<v Speaker 1>is one hundred. Anastasia says, I pay over two hundred

0:23:05.440 --> 0:23:09.320
<v Speaker 1>for Cox TV and Internet. That sounds pretty typical for

0:23:09.440 --> 0:23:12.159
<v Speaker 1>you know, if you're if you're bundling products and services.

0:23:12.600 --> 0:23:15.639
<v Speaker 1>The problem is that like I found out with my

0:23:15.680 --> 0:23:18.399
<v Speaker 1>mom when I unbundled her Internet when I cut the

0:23:18.440 --> 0:23:20.439
<v Speaker 1>cord for her a couple of weeks ago, you know,

0:23:20.480 --> 0:23:22.919
<v Speaker 1>they wanted to charge me an astronomical rate for the

0:23:22.960 --> 0:23:25.439
<v Speaker 1>Internet alone, and I said, oh, come on, I'm not

0:23:25.480 --> 0:23:29.639
<v Speaker 1>doing that. That's insane. So you know, you got to

0:23:29.760 --> 0:23:32.800
<v Speaker 1>really really convince these people to give you the good

0:23:32.800 --> 0:23:34.520
<v Speaker 1>price because they're just gonna want to charge you a lot.

0:23:34.960 --> 0:23:37.400
<v Speaker 1>All right, Uh eight on eight you're on with Rich

0:23:37.600 --> 0:23:40.160
<v Speaker 1>for Oh Hi, Hey, who am I speaking with?

0:23:40.880 --> 0:23:41.160
<v Speaker 3>Brian?

0:23:42.240 --> 0:23:42.640
<v Speaker 6>Understand?

0:23:43.040 --> 0:23:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Hey Brian, where are you calling from?

0:23:45.320 --> 0:23:47.120
<v Speaker 6>I'm calling from Terminoaks, California?

0:23:47.240 --> 0:23:49.600
<v Speaker 1>All right, what's on your mind?

0:23:50.240 --> 0:23:52.560
<v Speaker 6>I just wanted to see what his opinion is on

0:23:53.000 --> 0:23:56.679
<v Speaker 6>some of the tech hardware or apps out there that

0:23:56.800 --> 0:24:00.919
<v Speaker 6>are good for stuff on TVs, for social media, for

0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:04.480
<v Speaker 6>like nonprofits, promoting school events, stuff like that.

0:24:04.880 --> 0:24:05.080
<v Speaker 5>Oh.

0:24:05.160 --> 0:24:07.240
<v Speaker 1>Interesting, Well you're talking to me, so you're not. You're

0:24:07.359 --> 0:24:09.280
<v Speaker 1>it sounded like you were asking the call screener. There

0:24:09.480 --> 0:24:12.000
<v Speaker 1>there is none, it's just this is Rich.

0:24:12.080 --> 0:24:13.400
<v Speaker 6>Oh not cool? Hi Rich?

0:24:13.800 --> 0:24:16.119
<v Speaker 1>So Brian, you're okay. So you're saying you want to

0:24:16.200 --> 0:24:20.000
<v Speaker 1>know what social apps are best for, like promoting school.

0:24:19.640 --> 0:24:23.560
<v Speaker 6>Things, apps or even stuff like I used to use

0:24:23.640 --> 0:24:25.960
<v Speaker 6>and I name a brand, a company or a product things.

0:24:26.040 --> 0:24:26.959
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, this is so.

0:24:27.080 --> 0:24:31.000
<v Speaker 6>I've used the mebo camera before, okay, and I ran

0:24:31.040 --> 0:24:35.240
<v Speaker 6>into more problems than I did discover like positive uses

0:24:35.280 --> 0:24:35.520
<v Speaker 6>for it.

0:24:35.560 --> 0:24:36.480
<v Speaker 3>So I'm not quite sure.

0:24:36.640 --> 0:24:39.160
<v Speaker 6>Things like that things that I can use at live

0:24:39.160 --> 0:24:43.320
<v Speaker 6>events to promote things that happen on school campuses, et cetera.

0:24:43.480 --> 0:24:45.760
<v Speaker 1>Okay, well, two things. So first off, the program that

0:24:45.800 --> 0:24:49.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm using is is called ECAM Live. And I don't

0:24:49.160 --> 0:24:50.560
<v Speaker 1>know if you see what I've got going on here,

0:24:50.560 --> 0:24:52.960
<v Speaker 1>but this is a one man show here, and I've

0:24:53.000 --> 0:24:55.600
<v Speaker 1>got graphics on screen. I have the ability to bring

0:24:55.600 --> 0:24:57.639
<v Speaker 1>in video if I want, so if I press this,

0:24:58.480 --> 0:25:02.480
<v Speaker 1>let's see what happens here? Come on, resume last or

0:25:02.480 --> 0:25:05.880
<v Speaker 1>here we go. So you see that. If you're watching

0:25:06.040 --> 0:25:08.280
<v Speaker 1>on the Facebook live stream, you can see that I

0:25:08.359 --> 0:25:10.200
<v Speaker 1>just brought in a video. And you guys that are

0:25:10.240 --> 0:25:14.240
<v Speaker 1>listening to obviously hear that as well. Let me stop

0:25:14.320 --> 0:25:17.439
<v Speaker 1>that point get back to where I am here. So anyway,

0:25:17.520 --> 0:25:19.680
<v Speaker 1>so that's one of the features I can bring in

0:25:19.680 --> 0:25:22.840
<v Speaker 1>my computer screen here. So if I want to show

0:25:22.880 --> 0:25:24.479
<v Speaker 1>you guys something on the web, I can do that.

0:25:25.240 --> 0:25:27.960
<v Speaker 1>And there's other things like I can bring in comments

0:25:27.960 --> 0:25:30.680
<v Speaker 1>from people live, which is really cool too. So that's

0:25:30.680 --> 0:25:33.520
<v Speaker 1>one thing that's called ECAM Live. I believe it's forty dollars.

0:25:33.760 --> 0:25:35.520
<v Speaker 1>They gave me a copy of the program I asked

0:25:35.560 --> 0:25:37.080
<v Speaker 1>them for. I said, hey, I'd love to use this

0:25:37.080 --> 0:25:39.359
<v Speaker 1>for my podcast. Can you give me a product of

0:25:40.040 --> 0:25:42.560
<v Speaker 1>you a copy to try? And they said sure, So

0:25:42.600 --> 0:25:46.520
<v Speaker 1>that's number one. Number two, I'd really recommend that you

0:25:46.640 --> 0:25:51.159
<v Speaker 1>use the Facebook Creator app on iPhone because here's the thing.

0:25:51.160 --> 0:25:55.040
<v Speaker 1>I've tried Mevo and Mivo's was cool. But Mivo is

0:25:55.080 --> 0:25:57.119
<v Speaker 1>good for like if you're doing a concert or if

0:25:57.119 --> 0:25:59.479
<v Speaker 1>you're just you kind of like a camera that's all

0:25:59.520 --> 0:26:03.280
<v Speaker 1>in one to broadcast something. But I'm using a webcam

0:26:03.320 --> 0:26:07.399
<v Speaker 1>along with this ECAM program. But the Mevo, I agree,

0:26:07.400 --> 0:26:10.199
<v Speaker 1>it was a little complicated for my use and hooking

0:26:10.240 --> 0:26:12.280
<v Speaker 1>things up to it, like external mics and stuff is

0:26:12.280 --> 0:26:14.520
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. It's just a little bit tricky for me.

0:26:14.560 --> 0:26:16.280
<v Speaker 1>It was a little bit more than I wanted. But

0:26:16.440 --> 0:26:19.480
<v Speaker 1>I would really recommend the Facebook Creator app. And I'll

0:26:19.480 --> 0:26:24.280
<v Speaker 1>tell you why. So right now, when you go live

0:26:24.359 --> 0:26:26.919
<v Speaker 1>through the Facebook Creator app, because they're trying to promote it.

0:26:27.200 --> 0:26:29.040
<v Speaker 1>I've noticed that when I go live through there, I

0:26:29.080 --> 0:26:32.720
<v Speaker 1>get more viewers. So that's one thing to think about

0:26:32.760 --> 0:26:35.400
<v Speaker 1>if you want to get the maximum exposure. The other

0:26:35.480 --> 0:26:38.959
<v Speaker 1>thing is that you can create graphics inside that program.

0:26:39.000 --> 0:26:40.600
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people don't know that, but you can

0:26:40.640 --> 0:26:44.840
<v Speaker 1>go into your Facebook page and create some graphics that

0:26:44.880 --> 0:26:48.080
<v Speaker 1>will show on screen when you go live from that.

0:26:48.160 --> 0:26:50.040
<v Speaker 1>So if you want to put your school logo or

0:26:50.080 --> 0:26:52.359
<v Speaker 1>something like that on there, you can have that built

0:26:52.400 --> 0:26:54.160
<v Speaker 1>right into your phone, which is really cool. You don't

0:26:54.160 --> 0:26:57.760
<v Speaker 1>have to do anything extra and with the iPhone, and

0:26:57.840 --> 0:26:59.800
<v Speaker 1>with the iPhone you can use external mics and stuff

0:26:59.800 --> 0:27:01.199
<v Speaker 1>like that pretty pretty easily.

0:27:02.040 --> 0:27:04.520
<v Speaker 6>And that's all accessed through Facebook or do I need

0:27:04.560 --> 0:27:06.280
<v Speaker 6>to do one of the apps notes.

0:27:06.320 --> 0:27:08.399
<v Speaker 1>To get into that, you've got to download a special

0:27:08.440 --> 0:27:12.000
<v Speaker 1>app called Facebook Creator. So it's a brand new app.

0:27:12.040 --> 0:27:14.359
<v Speaker 1>They just came out that it's only for iPhone right now,

0:27:14.600 --> 0:27:17.800
<v Speaker 1>but it will come out on Android hopefully soon. I

0:27:17.800 --> 0:27:20.600
<v Speaker 1>mean it's Android always seems to lag the iPhone apps,

0:27:20.920 --> 0:27:24.400
<v Speaker 1>but that's a that's a good one as well, so great. Yeah,

0:27:24.440 --> 0:27:26.399
<v Speaker 1>I would recommend those two things. If you're looking at

0:27:26.440 --> 0:27:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Facebook Live, there's a lot of other things out there

0:27:29.040 --> 0:27:30.920
<v Speaker 1>that kind of let you. I mean, if you want,

0:27:30.960 --> 0:27:33.560
<v Speaker 1>you can go YouTube live. The problem is everyone's on Facebook,

0:27:33.880 --> 0:27:36.440
<v Speaker 1>so that's really the best way to go live out

0:27:36.440 --> 0:27:39.800
<v Speaker 1>of all these services. There was one that my friend

0:27:39.880 --> 0:27:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Jefferson Graham from USA Today used and I got to

0:27:43.560 --> 0:27:47.240
<v Speaker 1>remember what it was smile Facebook Live. Let me see

0:27:47.240 --> 0:27:51.080
<v Speaker 1>what it was called. I don't know if I can

0:27:51.119 --> 0:27:54.280
<v Speaker 1>find it. Yeah, there was like a live streaming app,

0:27:54.760 --> 0:27:58.560
<v Speaker 1>but I can't remember what it was called anyway, So

0:27:58.800 --> 0:28:01.720
<v Speaker 1>there's another. There's a couple of that I've seen him try,

0:28:01.760 --> 0:28:03.679
<v Speaker 1>and you know, none of them are as good as

0:28:03.720 --> 0:28:06.119
<v Speaker 1>the I think the original app has just gotten so

0:28:06.240 --> 0:28:09.040
<v Speaker 1>good that it kind of like does everything you need

0:28:09.560 --> 0:28:12.640
<v Speaker 1>without having external apps. But this ECAM Live, I really

0:28:12.680 --> 0:28:14.640
<v Speaker 1>recommend you just run it off a MacBook and you're

0:28:14.680 --> 0:28:15.920
<v Speaker 1>good to go and you can do a lot of

0:28:15.920 --> 0:28:19.800
<v Speaker 1>great stuff with it, so perfect hopefully. Thank you answer

0:28:19.840 --> 0:28:22.119
<v Speaker 1>your question all right, Brian, thanks so much for calling in.

0:28:22.160 --> 0:28:24.640
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate it. Full line open three one zero five

0:28:24.760 --> 0:28:28.920
<v Speaker 1>nine four three zero zero three and uh, let's see

0:28:29.480 --> 0:28:31.600
<v Speaker 1>g And Carlos says, Hey, Rich, what app do I

0:28:31.680 --> 0:28:34.199
<v Speaker 1>use to pick someone in an Instagram giveaway on my

0:28:34.280 --> 0:28:37.639
<v Speaker 1>company's Instagram account? Thanks, that's a good question. I know

0:28:37.680 --> 0:28:40.520
<v Speaker 1>how to do it with my Facebook, but I'm not sure.

0:28:40.560 --> 0:28:43.320
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, it does it with Instagram, So the site

0:28:43.320 --> 0:28:45.320
<v Speaker 1>that I use, and you'll notice later on when I

0:28:45.360 --> 0:28:47.160
<v Speaker 1>do my giveaway. If you're watching on the live show

0:28:47.720 --> 0:28:52.560
<v Speaker 1>I use a site called wu box woo Box wu Box,

0:28:53.040 --> 0:28:57.040
<v Speaker 1>and that will help you choose a winner on Instagram.

0:28:57.120 --> 0:28:59.280
<v Speaker 1>I have not done that personally, but I see it

0:28:59.320 --> 0:29:01.600
<v Speaker 1>as an option in my behind the scenes kind of

0:29:03.120 --> 0:29:06.320
<v Speaker 1>in my tool deck whatever you want to call it. Here,

0:29:06.360 --> 0:29:08.920
<v Speaker 1>I see that, So that's another way to do it.

0:29:09.200 --> 0:29:11.560
<v Speaker 1>And Steven says the TV behind me has turned off.

0:29:11.600 --> 0:29:13.400
<v Speaker 1>I know, and I can turn it back on, but

0:29:13.840 --> 0:29:17.680
<v Speaker 1>it's not really going to do anything, because yeah, it's

0:29:17.760 --> 0:29:19.400
<v Speaker 1>just it's I had the graphic. I got to figure

0:29:19.400 --> 0:29:20.800
<v Speaker 1>out how to get my graphic to stay up on

0:29:20.840 --> 0:29:25.840
<v Speaker 1>there for some reason. Let's talk about pixel versus iPhone.

0:29:25.880 --> 0:29:28.360
<v Speaker 1>So this is a great article. This was written on

0:29:28.400 --> 0:29:34.160
<v Speaker 1>the Verge, and basically the author is saying how he

0:29:34.280 --> 0:29:38.000
<v Speaker 1>is gripped by a constant fear of choosing the iPhone

0:29:38.080 --> 0:29:41.720
<v Speaker 1>ten versus the Google Pixel two xcel. And I really

0:29:41.760 --> 0:29:45.200
<v Speaker 1>identify with this because I feel the same way. I

0:29:45.240 --> 0:29:49.120
<v Speaker 1>absolutely love my Pixel to xcel, but I also love

0:29:49.440 --> 0:29:54.000
<v Speaker 1>the iPhone ten. And I'm telling you it's really a

0:29:54.000 --> 0:29:56.719
<v Speaker 1>problem because when you're a tech reviewer, you get access

0:29:56.720 --> 0:29:58.480
<v Speaker 1>to a lot of different things, so you get exposed

0:29:58.480 --> 0:30:02.200
<v Speaker 1>to them, and it's just he wrote all about it,

0:30:02.240 --> 0:30:04.600
<v Speaker 1>like the pros and cons of each one, basically saying

0:30:04.600 --> 0:30:08.200
<v Speaker 1>how beautiful the iPhone is, which it is, and the

0:30:08.320 --> 0:30:11.400
<v Speaker 1>notch is a non issue, but the pixels, camera, and

0:30:11.440 --> 0:30:14.600
<v Speaker 1>battery life are just unbelievable, which I agree. Battery I

0:30:14.680 --> 0:30:17.120
<v Speaker 1>never think of on the pixel, and the camera is

0:30:17.160 --> 0:30:21.240
<v Speaker 1>just phenomenal. But when I think about the two devices,

0:30:21.280 --> 0:30:23.920
<v Speaker 1>it really comes down to this. Here's what I've decided.

0:30:24.160 --> 0:30:26.160
<v Speaker 1>And number two, I love the Apple Watch as well,

0:30:26.200 --> 0:30:28.840
<v Speaker 1>and that's a nice companion to iPhone. But here's what

0:30:28.880 --> 0:30:32.760
<v Speaker 1>I've realized. The iPhone is better as a creator's device

0:30:32.880 --> 0:30:35.280
<v Speaker 1>and as a casual user's device. So it does everything

0:30:35.280 --> 0:30:39.000
<v Speaker 1>you need, but it's very casual. It's super simple, everything works.

0:30:39.000 --> 0:30:40.600
<v Speaker 1>You don't even need to download apps if you don't

0:30:40.600 --> 0:30:42.760
<v Speaker 1>want to, because it's got so many great things built in,

0:30:44.080 --> 0:30:46.280
<v Speaker 1>editing and all that stuff. But when it comes to

0:30:46.320 --> 0:30:49.320
<v Speaker 1>the pixel, it really comes down to the camera. And

0:30:49.440 --> 0:30:53.080
<v Speaker 1>it's a great personal assistant because Google Assistant is so

0:30:53.200 --> 0:30:57.360
<v Speaker 1>amazing at voice commands, and also the information that surfaces

0:30:57.480 --> 0:31:00.840
<v Speaker 1>using Google Feed is really amazing. I agree, I'm right

0:31:00.840 --> 0:31:04.480
<v Speaker 1>with you there. The Verge I have the same anxiety,

0:31:04.640 --> 0:31:07.120
<v Speaker 1>but I love it He calls it the tragic anxiety

0:31:07.120 --> 0:31:09.520
<v Speaker 1>of having to choose, and I agree. We live in

0:31:09.560 --> 0:31:12.440
<v Speaker 1>an amazing time right now, because we are in a

0:31:12.520 --> 0:31:15.640
<v Speaker 1>time where smartphones have gotten so good that you're choosing

0:31:15.680 --> 0:31:18.440
<v Speaker 1>between two amazing devices. And if you don't even want

0:31:18.480 --> 0:31:21.240
<v Speaker 1>to spend that much on a pixel Orn iPhone ten,

0:31:21.480 --> 0:31:23.320
<v Speaker 1>I can give you five other devices that are just

0:31:23.360 --> 0:31:27.480
<v Speaker 1>as good, like the one plus five T. That device

0:31:27.560 --> 0:31:29.480
<v Speaker 1>is not even that expensive when you look at it

0:31:29.520 --> 0:31:32.880
<v Speaker 1>compared to Let's see, let's see how much that is

0:31:34.200 --> 0:31:35.720
<v Speaker 1>when you look at it compared to some of these

0:31:35.720 --> 0:31:39.200
<v Speaker 1>big devices. This device is a lot cheaper. And let's

0:31:39.200 --> 0:31:42.360
<v Speaker 1>see how much that is. Five hundred and fifty nine bucks,

0:31:42.560 --> 0:31:45.200
<v Speaker 1>So five hundred dollars if you want for six gigs

0:31:45.240 --> 0:31:47.680
<v Speaker 1>a RAM and sixty four storage. Five point fifty nine

0:31:48.080 --> 0:31:50.080
<v Speaker 1>for one hundred and twenty eight gigs of RAM and

0:31:50.160 --> 0:31:53.720
<v Speaker 1>eight gigs of storage, and that phone is amazing. So

0:31:54.880 --> 0:31:58.840
<v Speaker 1>that is a fantastic device as well. Jim says, I

0:31:58.880 --> 0:32:01.640
<v Speaker 1>love the delayed double TI from Rich. Uh oh, what

0:32:01.640 --> 0:32:04.600
<v Speaker 1>does that mean? Am I? Are you hearing me? Double?

0:32:04.720 --> 0:32:08.960
<v Speaker 1>That's not good? What are the qualities Jamie says for

0:32:09.000 --> 0:32:12.320
<v Speaker 1>a good laptop, just for at home use. If you're

0:32:12.320 --> 0:32:15.360
<v Speaker 1>getting a laptop just for home, don't get a laptop,

0:32:15.840 --> 0:32:18.760
<v Speaker 1>get a desktop, Get an all in one. Go to Costco.

0:32:19.320 --> 0:32:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Usually they have one for about five hundred bucks. That

0:32:21.600 --> 0:32:24.640
<v Speaker 1>is phenomenal. It's totally specked out. You do not need

0:32:24.680 --> 0:32:26.960
<v Speaker 1>a laptop if your computer is gonna sit on a

0:32:27.000 --> 0:32:29.800
<v Speaker 1>desk at home all the time. Guess what. Laptops are

0:32:29.880 --> 0:32:32.760
<v Speaker 1>super expensive for what you get. Yes, you can buy

0:32:32.800 --> 0:32:35.920
<v Speaker 1>one for three four hundred bucks two hundred and fifty dollars.

0:32:36.080 --> 0:32:38.680
<v Speaker 1>But the reality is you don't want to use that

0:32:38.720 --> 0:32:40.960
<v Speaker 1>as your everyday computer unless you have a use case

0:32:40.960 --> 0:32:44.120
<v Speaker 1>for a laptop. A laptop is meant to go out

0:32:44.160 --> 0:32:47.040
<v Speaker 1>in the world. So if you're just getting a computer

0:32:47.120 --> 0:32:49.800
<v Speaker 1>for your desk to sit right here, don't get yourself

0:32:49.840 --> 0:32:52.960
<v Speaker 1>a laptop. You're spending way too much money and not

0:32:53.040 --> 0:32:57.680
<v Speaker 1>getting enough device for that money. So, yeah, Debbie says,

0:32:57.960 --> 0:33:01.520
<v Speaker 1>I like to take my laptop with me. I take

0:33:01.560 --> 0:33:03.920
<v Speaker 1>my laptop everywhere. And if you've listened to this show,

0:33:04.400 --> 0:33:09.200
<v Speaker 1>you know that my kid recently threw a toy at

0:33:09.200 --> 0:33:12.320
<v Speaker 1>my laptop and cracked the screen. It costs me five

0:33:12.360 --> 0:33:13.920
<v Speaker 1>hundred dollars to get it repair. But I will say

0:33:13.960 --> 0:33:17.720
<v Speaker 1>Apple did the repair very fast. Sam from Pomona. You're

0:33:17.720 --> 0:33:20.360
<v Speaker 1>on with Rich what's up? Sam? Hey?

0:33:20.360 --> 0:33:21.760
<v Speaker 3>How's it going good?

0:33:21.880 --> 0:33:26.560
<v Speaker 1>How are you doing? How are those Porsche is treating you? Hey?

0:33:26.680 --> 0:33:31.240
<v Speaker 3>No complaints? Always a good time. Earlier, you guys were

0:33:31.240 --> 0:33:37.800
<v Speaker 3>talking about, you know, like the spectrum is changing, they're

0:33:38.040 --> 0:33:42.320
<v Speaker 3>not charging for the modems and things like that. I've

0:33:42.360 --> 0:33:44.480
<v Speaker 3>been with them for a long time, and when my

0:33:44.680 --> 0:33:49.360
<v Speaker 3>program ran out, basically you know when Charter Bottom, you

0:33:49.400 --> 0:33:54.000
<v Speaker 3>guys on KTLA mentioned that they wouldn't be you know,

0:33:54.200 --> 0:33:57.880
<v Speaker 3>like giving you the deals that Time Warner Cable used to,

0:33:57.960 --> 0:34:02.680
<v Speaker 3>and they didn't, and I cut the cable and so

0:34:02.720 --> 0:34:06.880
<v Speaker 3>I was down to home phone and the internet, and

0:34:06.960 --> 0:34:11.040
<v Speaker 3>they had me paying sixty five for internet and twenty

0:34:11.080 --> 0:34:14.640
<v Speaker 3>bucks for phone. And I recently called them to disconnect

0:34:14.680 --> 0:34:17.040
<v Speaker 3>the phone because I now have a cell phone that

0:34:17.080 --> 0:34:20.320
<v Speaker 3>I don't need the home phone. And now they're making deals,

0:34:20.320 --> 0:34:23.960
<v Speaker 3>but you got to ask for the retention department to

0:34:24.000 --> 0:34:24.959
<v Speaker 3>get them.

0:34:25.239 --> 0:34:28.560
<v Speaker 1>So you're saying ask, Okay, you know that's a good point, Sam,

0:34:28.600 --> 0:34:31.040
<v Speaker 1>because that's funny. You say that because when I called

0:34:31.040 --> 0:34:33.680
<v Speaker 1>to cancel my mom's cable just because she had the

0:34:34.120 --> 0:34:38.880
<v Speaker 1>She had internet, cable TV, and phone line.

0:34:38.960 --> 0:34:39.120
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:34:39.200 --> 0:34:41.080
<v Speaker 1>She hasn't used the phone line in ten years since

0:34:41.080 --> 0:34:44.279
<v Speaker 1>I got our cell phone. The cable TV, she had

0:34:44.440 --> 0:34:48.080
<v Speaker 1>literally twelve channels plus Showtime, which they gave her showtime

0:34:48.080 --> 0:34:49.680
<v Speaker 1>for free. I was like, Mom, how many movies are

0:34:49.719 --> 0:34:52.960
<v Speaker 1>you watching on Showtime? Not many, but she had channels

0:34:52.960 --> 0:34:54.920
<v Speaker 1>two through twelve. She lives out in New Jersey, so

0:34:54.960 --> 0:34:56.960
<v Speaker 1>it was a little different than here, but she had

0:34:57.000 --> 0:34:59.359
<v Speaker 1>basic cable. And then when I called to cancel, you're

0:34:59.440 --> 0:35:02.000
<v Speaker 1>absolutely right, they said, this is the price. It was

0:35:02.040 --> 0:35:04.160
<v Speaker 1>like eighty five dollars for just the internet, when she

0:35:04.239 --> 0:35:06.680
<v Speaker 1>was paying eighty for all three of these things, right,

0:35:06.960 --> 0:35:08.960
<v Speaker 1>And so I said, all right, well, transferming to the

0:35:09.000 --> 0:35:11.640
<v Speaker 1>person that cancels it. And she said, okay, transferming to

0:35:11.719 --> 0:35:13.800
<v Speaker 1>the person that cancels. That first question was, hey, we

0:35:13.840 --> 0:35:15.680
<v Speaker 1>can do everything for forty five bucks a month. I'm like,

0:35:16.239 --> 0:35:18.799
<v Speaker 1>why didn't you say that before? So you're right, you

0:35:18.840 --> 0:35:21.440
<v Speaker 1>do have to ask for the retention department. Sam. That

0:35:21.560 --> 0:35:24.760
<v Speaker 1>is a great point because the customer service reps really

0:35:24.800 --> 0:35:27.040
<v Speaker 1>don't have the power. And I'm not saying that as

0:35:27.080 --> 0:35:30.640
<v Speaker 1>a knock on them. They're physically not empowered to do

0:35:30.680 --> 0:35:33.759
<v Speaker 1>the things the retention department does because that's their job

0:35:33.880 --> 0:35:36.359
<v Speaker 1>and that's how they keep people there. So they are

0:35:37.160 --> 0:35:40.640
<v Speaker 1>empowered with better deals and better codes to get people

0:35:40.920 --> 0:35:42.480
<v Speaker 1>to stay.

0:35:42.560 --> 0:35:46.799
<v Speaker 3>Right, Well, I think they're finally feeling the pressure of

0:35:46.840 --> 0:35:47.799
<v Speaker 3>all the competition.

0:35:48.600 --> 0:35:50.719
<v Speaker 1>Well I know, but you say that, but really, what

0:35:50.800 --> 0:35:53.080
<v Speaker 1>is the competition out there? I mean it's tough because

0:35:53.080 --> 0:35:55.360
<v Speaker 1>with cable TV, I get it, you got the streaming

0:35:55.400 --> 0:35:58.280
<v Speaker 1>services breathing down their back. But when it comes to Internet,

0:35:58.320 --> 0:36:03.120
<v Speaker 1>most people only have one, maybe two different service providers,

0:36:03.360 --> 0:36:05.279
<v Speaker 1>and one of them is usually pretty bad because it's

0:36:05.360 --> 0:36:07.880
<v Speaker 1>DSL or it's just not as fast. And so of

0:36:07.880 --> 0:36:11.120
<v Speaker 1>course the internet companies that are the cable companies that

0:36:11.160 --> 0:36:13.400
<v Speaker 1>are providing Internet always have the advantage because they have

0:36:13.400 --> 0:36:15.840
<v Speaker 1>the fastest speeds, so they kind of know, you know

0:36:15.840 --> 0:36:16.279
<v Speaker 1>what I mean.

0:36:16.560 --> 0:36:19.759
<v Speaker 3>I was gonna move over to Frontier because they have

0:36:19.920 --> 0:36:24.400
<v Speaker 3>the old horizon of FiOS. And what happened was is

0:36:24.480 --> 0:36:29.080
<v Speaker 3>they scheduled, you know, to make the switch. But unlike

0:36:29.600 --> 0:36:33.440
<v Speaker 3>I guess, you know, like Spectrum now, somebody has to

0:36:33.600 --> 0:36:36.279
<v Speaker 3>leave their system to make room for you to get on.

0:36:36.880 --> 0:36:39.480
<v Speaker 3>So you know, they had me all scheduled. Everything was

0:36:39.520 --> 0:36:42.480
<v Speaker 3>supposed to happen. But then I called up and I said, Hey,

0:36:42.480 --> 0:36:45.200
<v Speaker 3>what's going on. They go, oh, we don't have any room.

0:36:45.480 --> 0:36:48.360
<v Speaker 1>Really, yeah, that's interesting.

0:36:49.040 --> 0:36:50.960
<v Speaker 3>I couldn't believe it's.

0:36:51.120 --> 0:36:53.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it could be a capacity thing, because here's the deal.

0:36:53.840 --> 0:36:56.920
<v Speaker 1>They they spent many years building out those systems, like

0:36:56.920 --> 0:36:59.359
<v Speaker 1>you're talking about FiOS. But the problem is they only

0:36:59.360 --> 0:37:02.040
<v Speaker 1>built them out so far. And you're probably right, they

0:37:02.120 --> 0:37:05.360
<v Speaker 1>literally because each one of those is connected to a home.

0:37:05.840 --> 0:37:08.120
<v Speaker 1>So if they have the if they don't have the

0:37:08.120 --> 0:37:10.600
<v Speaker 1>capacity in the neighborhood. Like let's say there's thirty nodes

0:37:10.920 --> 0:37:13.359
<v Speaker 1>and thirty people are signed up, you're right, they don't

0:37:13.360 --> 0:37:15.319
<v Speaker 1>have the capacity. That's interesting. I didn't realize that they

0:37:15.360 --> 0:37:18.000
<v Speaker 1>actually turned people away, but that's fascinating.

0:37:19.000 --> 0:37:22.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean I was pretty upset, you know, And

0:37:22.560 --> 0:37:25.719
<v Speaker 3>so I'm stuck with the you know, a spectrum because

0:37:25.760 --> 0:37:27.640
<v Speaker 3>there's really nobody else in my neighborhood.

0:37:27.760 --> 0:37:29.839
<v Speaker 1>And how much you're paying now when all the dust

0:37:29.920 --> 0:37:30.400
<v Speaker 1>has come.

0:37:30.560 --> 0:37:33.120
<v Speaker 3>Well, like I say, I called up and I'm getting

0:37:33.239 --> 0:37:37.000
<v Speaker 3>the one hundred speed internet and I'm getting the home

0:37:37.080 --> 0:37:41.799
<v Speaker 3>phone for sixty five bucks, which is okay, Yeah, that's

0:37:41.840 --> 0:37:42.239
<v Speaker 3>pretty good.

0:37:42.280 --> 0:37:44.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean, like I said, I'm paying forty five on

0:37:44.400 --> 0:37:46.719
<v Speaker 1>my just for one hundred, but I don't have a

0:37:46.760 --> 0:37:48.920
<v Speaker 1>phone line and amount of promotion, and they want to

0:37:48.960 --> 0:37:50.800
<v Speaker 1>jump it up to sixty five. So you're basically getting

0:37:50.800 --> 0:37:53.279
<v Speaker 1>the phone line free, depending on how you look at it.

0:37:53.320 --> 0:37:56.360
<v Speaker 1>But for everyone that's listening, you know, if you're paying,

0:37:57.160 --> 0:37:59.719
<v Speaker 1>if you haven't called your cable company in the past year,

0:38:00.040 --> 0:38:02.200
<v Speaker 1>you gotta call him up and just say, hey, look,

0:38:02.320 --> 0:38:04.239
<v Speaker 1>I'm ready to jump ship here, what can you do

0:38:04.280 --> 0:38:05.760
<v Speaker 1>for me? And ask for that retention department.

0:38:06.760 --> 0:38:09.279
<v Speaker 3>I went to a friend's house who also has what

0:38:09.400 --> 0:38:11.919
<v Speaker 3>I had, and I looked at him and go, let's

0:38:11.920 --> 0:38:14.000
<v Speaker 3>get him on the phone. And I did the same

0:38:14.040 --> 0:38:14.680
<v Speaker 3>thing for him.

0:38:15.280 --> 0:38:17.640
<v Speaker 1>And now, yeah, that's your good friend, Sam, you are

0:38:17.680 --> 0:38:20.160
<v Speaker 1>a good friend. All right. Listen, I've got a couple

0:38:20.280 --> 0:38:22.320
<v Speaker 1>questions to answer here on the on the live chat,

0:38:22.360 --> 0:38:24.080
<v Speaker 1>but thanks so much for calling in. I appreciate it

0:38:24.120 --> 0:38:27.200
<v Speaker 1>as you as always good talking dude. All right, Sam,

0:38:27.239 --> 0:38:32.279
<v Speaker 1>take care and keep those porsches. Sam collects cars, so

0:38:32.360 --> 0:38:33.960
<v Speaker 1>he sent me a couple of pictures of them, and

0:38:34.160 --> 0:38:37.359
<v Speaker 1>he keeps me pretty shiny, all right. Kathy says, is

0:38:37.480 --> 0:38:39.600
<v Speaker 1>it possible to edit a video I've taken on my

0:38:39.640 --> 0:38:43.320
<v Speaker 1>iPad or iPhone and if so, how do I do it? Absolutely,

0:38:43.400 --> 0:38:45.759
<v Speaker 1>that is, Kathy, one of the best features of the

0:38:45.800 --> 0:38:48.680
<v Speaker 1>iPhone and iPad. You do not need a computer. In fact,

0:38:48.920 --> 0:38:50.800
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the stuff that you see me post

0:38:50.840 --> 0:38:54.560
<v Speaker 1>to Facebook, I am editing right on my smartphone or

0:38:54.960 --> 0:38:56.759
<v Speaker 1>not so much my iPad, but you can do it there,

0:38:56.760 --> 0:39:00.160
<v Speaker 1>but right on my iPhone. And sometimes I'm i Android. Android, Wait,

0:39:01.160 --> 0:39:04.160
<v Speaker 1>just doesn't you can do it. It's just not as

0:39:04.239 --> 0:39:07.239
<v Speaker 1>good as iPhone when it comes to editing stuff. And

0:39:07.719 --> 0:39:10.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not trying to knock Android. I love Android, but

0:39:10.280 --> 0:39:12.439
<v Speaker 1>it's just not there. And I'll tell you why. There's

0:39:12.480 --> 0:39:16.239
<v Speaker 1>a thousand different Android models out there that these developers

0:39:16.280 --> 0:39:18.920
<v Speaker 1>have to make their app work with, and that's really

0:39:18.960 --> 0:39:21.840
<v Speaker 1>tough to do, so it ends up not being that good.

0:39:22.120 --> 0:39:25.239
<v Speaker 1>But Apple, there's literally like one set of standards and

0:39:25.280 --> 0:39:27.359
<v Speaker 1>it works on all these devices and so they don't

0:39:27.360 --> 0:39:30.239
<v Speaker 1>have to think about tweaking their app for all these

0:39:30.239 --> 0:39:35.600
<v Speaker 1>different scenarios. And that's why apps usually function better on iOS. Now,

0:39:35.640 --> 0:39:37.680
<v Speaker 1>I know there's gonna be some of you Android nerds

0:39:37.719 --> 0:39:40.520
<v Speaker 1>out there that will debate me on that. Yes, I

0:39:40.520 --> 0:39:44.600
<v Speaker 1>think that sometimes Android apps work better in a let's see,

0:39:44.640 --> 0:39:47.040
<v Speaker 1>how can I say this in a performance way where

0:39:47.080 --> 0:39:49.200
<v Speaker 1>you can share things easier and it can integrate with

0:39:49.239 --> 0:39:52.080
<v Speaker 1>the operating system better when it comes to pure functionality.

0:39:52.120 --> 0:39:54.280
<v Speaker 1>A lot of times, that's why you see the updates

0:39:54.320 --> 0:39:57.040
<v Speaker 1>on iOS first. But a couple options for you, I'll

0:39:57.040 --> 0:39:59.800
<v Speaker 1>tell you what I like. Yeah, And we have some

0:40:00.000 --> 0:40:02.880
<v Speaker 1>people chiming in on the live saying that you can

0:40:02.960 --> 0:40:05.200
<v Speaker 1>use iMovie. That's one way. I find iMovie to be

0:40:05.320 --> 0:40:08.359
<v Speaker 1>very complicated, especially on the smartphone, so I don't use

0:40:08.360 --> 0:40:11.200
<v Speaker 1>that one. I actually use an app called video Shop,

0:40:11.480 --> 0:40:14.080
<v Speaker 1>which is really good. But my favorite app for editing

0:40:14.520 --> 0:40:17.799
<v Speaker 1>is Adobe Clip. So you can download that for free

0:40:17.840 --> 0:40:19.799
<v Speaker 1>and you will be amazed what you can do on

0:40:19.840 --> 0:40:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Adobe Clip. I'm trying to find my iPhone here it

0:40:22.920 --> 0:40:24.840
<v Speaker 1>is to look at my apps I use. But Adobe

0:40:24.920 --> 0:40:26.680
<v Speaker 1>Clip is amazing and that's the one that I use

0:40:26.719 --> 0:40:30.239
<v Speaker 1>almost all the time. But Video Shop is really good,

0:40:30.280 --> 0:40:32.440
<v Speaker 1>and I think that one's like one or two dollars,

0:40:33.040 --> 0:40:34.600
<v Speaker 1>And I'm trying to see what else I have on

0:40:34.680 --> 0:40:36.680
<v Speaker 1>here that I use. But that's it, I mean, that's

0:40:36.760 --> 0:40:38.879
<v Speaker 1>really what you need are those two apps. You will

0:40:38.880 --> 0:40:44.040
<v Speaker 1>get through a lot of stuff. But yeah, fantastic question, Kathy,

0:40:44.160 --> 0:40:46.759
<v Speaker 1>that is a good one. Let's see here, we've got

0:40:46.800 --> 0:40:51.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of Manny says, what pair of headphones are

0:40:51.600 --> 0:40:53.160
<v Speaker 1>the best that you've had or think are the best

0:40:53.200 --> 0:40:55.480
<v Speaker 1>when getting a new phone. Oh man, you know what,

0:40:55.560 --> 0:40:58.000
<v Speaker 1>I'll be honest, I'm just not a headphones guy, so

0:40:58.080 --> 0:41:00.520
<v Speaker 1>I will just use the Apple ones or the ones

0:41:00.560 --> 0:41:02.879
<v Speaker 1>that come in the package. I love. These are from

0:41:03.080 --> 0:41:05.799
<v Speaker 1>a Samsung device. I love these, and I love the

0:41:05.960 --> 0:41:10.279
<v Speaker 1>Apple the Apple earbuds, those to me are the best. Now,

0:41:10.320 --> 0:41:13.000
<v Speaker 1>if you want Bluetooth, I'll tell you which ones I like.

0:41:13.040 --> 0:41:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Their JLab Epic two. I'm typing this in and I'm

0:41:18.640 --> 0:41:21.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna show you guys here. But these j lab Epic

0:41:21.840 --> 0:41:25.719
<v Speaker 1>twos are fantastic. And let's see if they even know

0:41:25.800 --> 0:41:28.200
<v Speaker 1>they have new ones. I guess, but these are these

0:41:28.239 --> 0:41:30.799
<v Speaker 1>are my favorite. They're just so I tested so many

0:41:30.840 --> 0:41:34.080
<v Speaker 1>of them and these were really really good. So if

0:41:34.120 --> 0:41:36.719
<v Speaker 1>you go to j lab Epic two is there are

0:41:36.719 --> 0:41:38.800
<v Speaker 1>a hundred bucks. You can get them for cheaper online,

0:41:38.800 --> 0:41:41.080
<v Speaker 1>I think. But those are the ones that I love.

0:41:41.280 --> 0:41:44.120
<v Speaker 1>They the battery last forever, they stayin in your ears.

0:41:44.320 --> 0:41:48.879
<v Speaker 1>They're Bluetooth wireless, So check those out on Amazon. Let's

0:41:48.880 --> 0:41:51.839
<v Speaker 1>see how much they're going for on Amazon. Let's see

0:41:51.880 --> 0:41:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Epic Amazon. Let's see how much they are Epic two

0:41:59.080 --> 0:42:03.120
<v Speaker 1>on Amazon are Oh, they're not available anymore. Oh no,

0:42:03.400 --> 0:42:05.759
<v Speaker 1>that means that they've changed them up, so there must

0:42:05.840 --> 0:42:07.680
<v Speaker 1>be a new version. Let's see what it says. It

0:42:07.680 --> 0:42:11.560
<v Speaker 1>doesn't say anything about a new version. Interesting, so I

0:42:11.560 --> 0:42:13.960
<v Speaker 1>don't know. Maybe they've done away with those, so I

0:42:13.960 --> 0:42:15.920
<v Speaker 1>don't know. You're gonna have to find something else. But

0:42:15.960 --> 0:42:19.600
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to wireless for expensive, definitely, the AirPods

0:42:19.600 --> 0:42:22.400
<v Speaker 1>are my favorite. Don't go with the pixel buds from Google.

0:42:22.440 --> 0:42:26.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't really like them as much. All right, let's see.

0:42:26.600 --> 0:42:28.759
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, you guys have a lot of questions here.

0:42:29.719 --> 0:42:35.120
<v Speaker 1>Let's see. Yolini says, Yeah, Lanni says, just check my

0:42:35.160 --> 0:42:37.239
<v Speaker 1>spectrum bill. They're charging me for the modem lease. I

0:42:37.239 --> 0:42:39.880
<v Speaker 1>will be calling the retention department later. Yeah. I think

0:42:39.920 --> 0:42:42.200
<v Speaker 1>you're on an old plan, so definitely call them up.

0:42:42.760 --> 0:42:46.200
<v Speaker 1>Noel says, is the Ring Home security a good investment? Yes?

0:42:46.520 --> 0:42:50.280
<v Speaker 1>I love the Ring. Definitely put it by your front door,

0:42:50.480 --> 0:42:52.719
<v Speaker 1>and if you can hardwire it, that's the best. But

0:42:52.719 --> 0:42:54.600
<v Speaker 1>if you can use it on a battery. That's fine

0:42:54.600 --> 0:42:57.600
<v Speaker 1>as well. It will work just as well. And gen

0:42:57.719 --> 0:43:00.680
<v Speaker 1>Carlo says Adobe Premier Clip is also availab on Android.

0:43:00.760 --> 0:43:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Yes it is. I do use it on Android as well.

0:43:03.360 --> 0:43:06.799
<v Speaker 1>John says, thanks for the recommendation, and Anthony says, is

0:43:06.800 --> 0:43:09.200
<v Speaker 1>it okay for me to use my old Samsung wireless

0:43:09.280 --> 0:43:14.160
<v Speaker 1>charging for my iPhone X? Yes? The wireless chargers are

0:43:14.200 --> 0:43:17.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna work pretty much with all the different devices at

0:43:17.040 --> 0:43:20.920
<v Speaker 1>this point. It may not be the optimized charge for

0:43:20.960 --> 0:43:23.480
<v Speaker 1>your device, but it's not gonna ruin your device, so yes,

0:43:23.560 --> 0:43:25.040
<v Speaker 1>you can use it. As long as it charges up,

0:43:25.080 --> 0:43:29.640
<v Speaker 1>it will be okay. Nora says, I love your helpful information.

0:43:29.840 --> 0:43:32.560
<v Speaker 1>Is iPhone SE two worth the wait? Or should I

0:43:32.600 --> 0:43:35.439
<v Speaker 1>get the first version? I probably wait for the new one.

0:43:35.480 --> 0:43:37.799
<v Speaker 1>The first one has been around, although let me think

0:43:37.800 --> 0:43:40.000
<v Speaker 1>about that. They just came out with the new version

0:43:40.120 --> 0:43:43.920
<v Speaker 1>recently at the event where they launched the iPhone. I

0:43:43.920 --> 0:43:47.080
<v Speaker 1>think they refreshed the specs on it. So whenever that's happening,

0:43:47.120 --> 0:43:51.160
<v Speaker 1>I always go to mac rumors. There's a thing called

0:43:51.239 --> 0:43:56.200
<v Speaker 1>Buyer's Guide dot MacRumors dot com and s iPhone SE.

0:43:56.560 --> 0:43:58.920
<v Speaker 1>It's been three hundred and thirty eight days since they

0:43:59.000 --> 0:44:02.680
<v Speaker 1>last released one. Yes, that's almost a year. In Apple cycles,

0:44:03.160 --> 0:44:05.680
<v Speaker 1>that's when they usually like to release a new one.

0:44:05.880 --> 0:44:11.279
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, that's that's it. So Robert says, what's your

0:44:11.280 --> 0:44:15.920
<v Speaker 1>take on magnetic charging cables? You know, I don't know.

0:44:16.000 --> 0:44:18.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if they it's great if you if it

0:44:18.400 --> 0:44:20.200
<v Speaker 1>works and you have it, but I don't. I don't

0:44:20.239 --> 0:44:22.960
<v Speaker 1>seek them out. They did away with it on my MacBook,

0:44:23.000 --> 0:44:25.839
<v Speaker 1>which was really annoying because I loved my my mag

0:44:25.920 --> 0:44:28.719
<v Speaker 1>safe all right, phone lines open three one zero five

0:44:28.719 --> 0:44:31.480
<v Speaker 1>to nine four three zero zero three three one zero

0:44:31.640 --> 0:44:35.799
<v Speaker 1>five nine four three zero zero three. According to Recode,

0:44:35.840 --> 0:44:39.239
<v Speaker 1>Amazon is opening up to six more of their Amazon

0:44:39.320 --> 0:44:43.279
<v Speaker 1>Go cashier list stores in the next year or so.

0:44:43.480 --> 0:44:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, but one of them apparently is gonna

0:44:47.719 --> 0:44:51.360
<v Speaker 1>be in Los Angeles and so they don't really have

0:44:51.440 --> 0:44:55.680
<v Speaker 1>many details. This is all rumors, but they are saying

0:44:55.680 --> 0:44:57.520
<v Speaker 1>that this is going to be at the Grove, which

0:44:57.560 --> 0:44:59.400
<v Speaker 1>if you live in LA you know where the Grove is.

0:44:59.480 --> 0:45:02.439
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of in the middle of town. Well would

0:45:02.440 --> 0:45:03.759
<v Speaker 1>you call that downtown? I don't know. It's in the

0:45:03.760 --> 0:45:06.000
<v Speaker 1>middle of Hollywood. It's it's south of Hollywood. I guess

0:45:06.040 --> 0:45:10.600
<v Speaker 1>you can say, but it's kind of this grand outdoor

0:45:10.680 --> 0:45:13.719
<v Speaker 1>shopping area. But the weird thing is, I don't really

0:45:13.840 --> 0:45:16.879
<v Speaker 1>understand why they put an Amazon Go there, that this

0:45:16.920 --> 0:45:20.080
<v Speaker 1>is basically a grocery store, and I don't really see

0:45:20.080 --> 0:45:23.760
<v Speaker 1>that being a grocery store now. What I do see

0:45:24.480 --> 0:45:26.839
<v Speaker 1>is them Okay, so the grocery by the way, if

0:45:26.840 --> 0:45:30.800
<v Speaker 1>you're not familiar, how this works, the Amazon Go store.

0:45:30.880 --> 0:45:33.920
<v Speaker 1>You go inside, you scan a QR code at the

0:45:34.040 --> 0:45:36.759
<v Speaker 1>entrance with your Amazon app, and it links you up

0:45:36.760 --> 0:45:39.120
<v Speaker 1>into the store, and then whenever you pull off the shelf,

0:45:39.320 --> 0:45:41.640
<v Speaker 1>it somehow registers that and then you walk out of

0:45:41.680 --> 0:45:45.000
<v Speaker 1>the store and it charges your Amazon account. Pretty brilliant, right,

0:45:45.000 --> 0:45:46.759
<v Speaker 1>people are They already have this in Seattle. This is

0:45:46.800 --> 0:45:49.960
<v Speaker 1>not a far fetched idea. It's literally happening in Seattle

0:45:50.000 --> 0:45:53.600
<v Speaker 1>as we speak. But they want to open a bunch

0:45:53.640 --> 0:45:56.200
<v Speaker 1>more of these. These are convenience stores, grocery stores, whatever

0:45:56.200 --> 0:45:59.920
<v Speaker 1>you want to call them. But I just don't understand

0:46:00.000 --> 0:46:02.000
<v Speaker 1>and why they would put this at the Grove. They

0:46:02.000 --> 0:46:04.640
<v Speaker 1>don't really have a grocery store there. You don't really

0:46:04.640 --> 0:46:08.000
<v Speaker 1>go grocery shopping at the Grove, So I don't really

0:46:08.040 --> 0:46:11.319
<v Speaker 1>see this working now, I do see an Amazon bookstore,

0:46:11.800 --> 0:46:14.359
<v Speaker 1>and I can understand maybe they're going to open up

0:46:14.360 --> 0:46:18.880
<v Speaker 1>in Amazon Books that has this go technology, but I'm

0:46:18.920 --> 0:46:21.080
<v Speaker 1>not sure because they already have a Barnes and Noble

0:46:21.160 --> 0:46:24.160
<v Speaker 1>at the Grove unless it's closed. Last I checked. I mean,

0:46:25.080 --> 0:46:29.040
<v Speaker 1>let's see if it's still there the Grove. So it

0:46:29.080 --> 0:46:31.920
<v Speaker 1>seems like the Grove Barnes and Noble is still open,

0:46:32.400 --> 0:46:35.319
<v Speaker 1>so that's good news. I noticed a couple weeks ago

0:46:35.600 --> 0:46:37.759
<v Speaker 1>they closed the Barnes and Noble that was at the

0:46:37.800 --> 0:46:40.440
<v Speaker 1>Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica. That was a big one,

0:46:40.960 --> 0:46:43.200
<v Speaker 1>So I don't know, kind of a weird location. I

0:46:43.239 --> 0:46:45.799
<v Speaker 1>definitely would not go grocery shopping at the Grove if

0:46:45.840 --> 0:46:48.160
<v Speaker 1>you've ever been in that area. The traffic around there

0:46:48.200 --> 0:46:51.840
<v Speaker 1>is absolutely horrendous. Ever since the Grove opened, it's really

0:46:51.880 --> 0:46:54.640
<v Speaker 1>done phenomenal for that area of Los Angeles. I guess

0:46:54.640 --> 0:46:58.320
<v Speaker 1>you'd called Central La, but it is. It is somewhere

0:46:58.320 --> 0:46:59.880
<v Speaker 1>you don't want to be hanging out, and if you

0:47:00.120 --> 0:47:02.600
<v Speaker 1>bunch of groceries to lug, you do not want to

0:47:02.640 --> 0:47:05.799
<v Speaker 1>be there. Three one zero five nine four three zero

0:47:05.880 --> 0:47:08.040
<v Speaker 1>zero three. If you have a question, I'll take probably

0:47:08.080 --> 0:47:11.120
<v Speaker 1>one more before I go, So get your phone call in.

0:47:11.400 --> 0:47:16.520
<v Speaker 1>Now we're talking about headphones, and it looks like apparently

0:47:16.600 --> 0:47:20.760
<v Speaker 1>Apple is going to upgrade the AirPods. And air pods

0:47:20.800 --> 0:47:24.400
<v Speaker 1>are absolutely one of my favorite gadget inventions ever because

0:47:24.440 --> 0:47:26.440
<v Speaker 1>they are the first wireless headphones that just sort of

0:47:26.520 --> 0:47:29.359
<v Speaker 1>work every single time. I've had these things for about

0:47:29.360 --> 0:47:31.120
<v Speaker 1>a year and I don't even think I've ever charged them,

0:47:31.160 --> 0:47:34.359
<v Speaker 1>like maybe twice, because the battery just lasts forever. And

0:47:35.120 --> 0:47:38.640
<v Speaker 1>here's the deal. So the rumor is, according to Bloomberg,

0:47:38.719 --> 0:47:41.320
<v Speaker 1>this is Mark German. He has all the inside scoob

0:47:41.400 --> 0:47:43.160
<v Speaker 1>on everything Apple. I mean, he's got some kind of

0:47:43.200 --> 0:47:45.960
<v Speaker 1>good contacts there that tell him everything. So that Bloomberg

0:47:46.040 --> 0:47:47.520
<v Speaker 1>actually hired this guy. He used to work at a

0:47:47.520 --> 0:47:49.719
<v Speaker 1>blog and they hired him because he knows so much

0:47:49.719 --> 0:47:52.919
<v Speaker 1>at Apple. So he's got some good friends there. He

0:47:53.000 --> 0:47:55.960
<v Speaker 1>says that they're going to upgrade the AirPods this year

0:47:56.280 --> 0:48:00.439
<v Speaker 1>with an upgraded wireless chip. So the upgraded wireless chip

0:48:00.440 --> 0:48:03.560
<v Speaker 1>would give you one key feature, and that is Hey Siri,

0:48:04.040 --> 0:48:06.839
<v Speaker 1>So that would allow you to basically like, for me,

0:48:06.920 --> 0:48:09.080
<v Speaker 1>while I'm running, I've got to tap the side of

0:48:09.080 --> 0:48:12.560
<v Speaker 1>the headphones to you know, say, can you increase the

0:48:12.600 --> 0:48:15.080
<v Speaker 1>volume by ten percent or skip to the next song.

0:48:15.360 --> 0:48:17.239
<v Speaker 1>This would just let you say, hey, Siri, increase the

0:48:17.280 --> 0:48:19.680
<v Speaker 1>volume by ten percent, and it would, which is really cool.

0:48:19.719 --> 0:48:22.160
<v Speaker 1>It's very useful. That's what the pixel No, the pixel

0:48:22.200 --> 0:48:25.040
<v Speaker 1>buds don't do that. You gotta tap them, you know what.

0:48:25.040 --> 0:48:28.799
<v Speaker 1>I gotta check on that actually. Anyway, Now, a new

0:48:28.920 --> 0:48:32.960
<v Speaker 1>version later on, not this year, is gonna be waterproof

0:48:33.080 --> 0:48:36.640
<v Speaker 1>or water resistant, I should say survive splashes of water

0:48:36.760 --> 0:48:39.600
<v Speaker 1>and rain. They will not be submerged in water. So

0:48:39.640 --> 0:48:41.960
<v Speaker 1>if you've been following what Apple has been doing, the

0:48:42.120 --> 0:48:46.160
<v Speaker 1>iPhone is water resistant, which means it can get splashed,

0:48:46.200 --> 0:48:47.960
<v Speaker 1>it can be out in the rain, will be just fine.

0:48:48.160 --> 0:48:50.920
<v Speaker 1>But the Apple Watch is water proof, which means you

0:48:50.920 --> 0:48:53.960
<v Speaker 1>can take it in the pool and it will handle

0:48:54.000 --> 0:48:55.759
<v Speaker 1>it like a champ and you're gonna be okay, which

0:48:55.760 --> 0:48:59.880
<v Speaker 1>is pretty pretty phenomenal because basically you are pushing your

0:49:00.080 --> 0:49:04.040
<v Speaker 1>hands into the water, which forces water into the device.

0:49:04.440 --> 0:49:07.760
<v Speaker 1>Which all these devices when they say they're water resistant,

0:49:07.760 --> 0:49:09.880
<v Speaker 1>they say that for a reason because there's still open

0:49:09.960 --> 0:49:12.239
<v Speaker 1>ports on them. And if you push this thing into

0:49:12.280 --> 0:49:16.240
<v Speaker 1>water like that, that means that you're forcing water into

0:49:16.239 --> 0:49:18.200
<v Speaker 1>the device, and it's gonna get in there, whether it's

0:49:18.200 --> 0:49:21.080
<v Speaker 1>water resistant or not. Now with the Apple Watch, they

0:49:21.080 --> 0:49:23.440
<v Speaker 1>made it water proof, which means they did a lot

0:49:23.480 --> 0:49:25.120
<v Speaker 1>of testing to make sure that they can still have

0:49:25.160 --> 0:49:28.359
<v Speaker 1>some open ports on it, notably the speaker grill, and

0:49:28.560 --> 0:49:32.200
<v Speaker 1>still have it basically locked up tight with the water.

0:49:33.200 --> 0:49:36.680
<v Speaker 1>All right, Kathy says, I'm looking for Adobe Chip on

0:49:36.719 --> 0:49:38.640
<v Speaker 1>my iPhone and I can't find it. That's because it's

0:49:38.640 --> 0:49:43.040
<v Speaker 1>Adobe clip. Adobe Chip sounds very tasty, but that is

0:49:43.040 --> 0:49:44.880
<v Speaker 1>not an app that you can edit video on. It

0:49:44.960 --> 0:49:48.040
<v Speaker 1>is Adobe Clip, so if you type in Adobe clip,

0:49:48.320 --> 0:49:50.320
<v Speaker 1>you can get it. And Cindy says, do you know

0:49:50.360 --> 0:49:54.080
<v Speaker 1>when the new EarPods are coming out? The article does

0:49:54.120 --> 0:49:56.160
<v Speaker 1>not say it, just says this year. But if you

0:49:56.200 --> 0:49:58.239
<v Speaker 1>think about it, let's go back to that website. I

0:49:58.280 --> 0:50:00.840
<v Speaker 1>don't know if it. I'm not sure. Let's see if

0:50:00.880 --> 0:50:04.560
<v Speaker 1>that website has the AirPods. Let's see if they have accessories,

0:50:04.600 --> 0:50:08.240
<v Speaker 1>they have HomePod. I don't see the accessories. Let's see.

0:50:08.880 --> 0:50:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Let's see watch other Now they don't have the AirPods

0:50:11.480 --> 0:50:13.239
<v Speaker 1>on there. But it's been a while. They've been out,

0:50:13.239 --> 0:50:15.040
<v Speaker 1>I think for about almost a year and a half

0:50:15.120 --> 0:50:18.000
<v Speaker 1>now two years, so they're definitely due for an upgrade.

0:50:18.960 --> 0:50:22.080
<v Speaker 1>Let's see, and Al says, is the iPhone ten getting discontinued?

0:50:22.120 --> 0:50:24.359
<v Speaker 1>Are they coming out with a new version? How many

0:50:24.360 --> 0:50:26.760
<v Speaker 1>new iPhones is Apple going to release at their next event?

0:50:27.440 --> 0:50:33.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, here's the thing. When they say discontinued, what

0:50:33.520 --> 0:50:35.239
<v Speaker 1>does that really mean? I mean, they're not going to

0:50:35.320 --> 0:50:39.080
<v Speaker 1>discontinue it. The iPhone ten is the iPhone ten, So

0:50:39.239 --> 0:50:41.600
<v Speaker 1>will it be replaced with a new model eventually? Yes?

0:50:41.640 --> 0:50:43.920
<v Speaker 1>Are they making less of them? Apparently if you believe

0:50:43.920 --> 0:50:47.279
<v Speaker 1>everything you read. But the reality is the design of

0:50:47.280 --> 0:50:49.480
<v Speaker 1>the iPhone I don't think is going to change with

0:50:49.520 --> 0:50:51.719
<v Speaker 1>the next iPhone. It's going to be very similar to

0:50:51.760 --> 0:50:54.080
<v Speaker 1>what we have with the iPhone ten. They might do

0:50:54.160 --> 0:50:56.120
<v Speaker 1>away with a notch, but I think that that's gonna

0:50:56.160 --> 0:50:58.759
<v Speaker 1>be the design of the iPhone. Yes, the ten might be.

0:50:59.080 --> 0:51:03.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't really understand what we discontinued means, because they've

0:51:03.040 --> 0:51:05.800
<v Speaker 1>discontinued things like when they came out with the Apple

0:51:05.800 --> 0:51:09.560
<v Speaker 1>Watch three, they discontinued Apple Watch two. That just means

0:51:09.560 --> 0:51:11.399
<v Speaker 1>they stopped making it and now they have the three,

0:51:11.440 --> 0:51:14.279
<v Speaker 1>But they did keep making the one. And Apple's known

0:51:14.360 --> 0:51:17.040
<v Speaker 1>to do that all the time kind of forces you

0:51:17.120 --> 0:51:19.400
<v Speaker 1>to choose between something that's kind of less or lesser

0:51:19.760 --> 0:51:22.200
<v Speaker 1>or the best. They kind of don't have stuff in

0:51:22.200 --> 0:51:23.880
<v Speaker 1>the middle. It's kind of weird now they have the

0:51:23.880 --> 0:51:25.919
<v Speaker 1>most phones ever to choose from, though there's so many

0:51:25.920 --> 0:51:29.440
<v Speaker 1>to choose from. All right, I think that's gonna do

0:51:29.480 --> 0:51:32.680
<v Speaker 1>it for the show. So yes, MJ says I can't

0:51:32.680 --> 0:51:34.960
<v Speaker 1>find Adobe Clip, but there's Premiere Clip. Yes, that's the

0:51:35.040 --> 0:51:36.840
<v Speaker 1>name of the app. When you download it, it just

0:51:36.840 --> 0:51:39.200
<v Speaker 1>says clip, but yes, Adobe Premiere Clip is the full

0:51:39.239 --> 0:51:41.839
<v Speaker 1>name of the app. Sorry for not being more clear

0:51:41.920 --> 0:51:45.439
<v Speaker 1>on that, but that will definitely do it. So all right,

0:51:46.080 --> 0:51:48.640
<v Speaker 1>Angie says I'm dying. Oh no, what are you dying about?

0:51:48.680 --> 0:51:52.680
<v Speaker 1>What I say? Wrong? Maybe I messed up on something,

0:51:52.719 --> 0:51:54.319
<v Speaker 1>but there you go. That's what it is. Oh you're

0:51:54.360 --> 0:51:56.319
<v Speaker 1>dying because I said chip not clip. I don't know.

0:51:56.760 --> 0:51:58.960
<v Speaker 1>And finally, Anthony says, what do you think about the

0:51:59.040 --> 0:52:02.400
<v Speaker 1>DJI mave Air. It looks pretty cool. I have not

0:52:02.440 --> 0:52:04.839
<v Speaker 1>played with it, but I played with the Mavick and

0:52:05.280 --> 0:52:07.640
<v Speaker 1>it was very nice. DGI is really killing it when

0:52:07.640 --> 0:52:10.520
<v Speaker 1>it comes to kind of like their products and their

0:52:10.640 --> 0:52:13.439
<v Speaker 1>drones and their camera gear. They're doing a good job,

0:52:13.680 --> 0:52:15.920
<v Speaker 1>given GoPro a run for their money. In fact, you know,

0:52:16.000 --> 0:52:20.320
<v Speaker 1>GoPro closed down their drone division, so the DGI definitely

0:52:20.320 --> 0:52:23.440
<v Speaker 1>took over in that. And I love the DJI. I've

0:52:23.480 --> 0:52:27.279
<v Speaker 1>got it over here on my shelf here. But my

0:52:27.360 --> 0:52:31.560
<v Speaker 1>company gave me their mount, which is a gyro mount

0:52:31.600 --> 0:52:34.400
<v Speaker 1>for the iPhone so you can get your iPhone really steady.

0:52:34.440 --> 0:52:36.719
<v Speaker 1>It's called the DGI Osmo, and they just came out

0:52:36.719 --> 0:52:39.239
<v Speaker 1>the Osmo two, and that one's supposed to be even

0:52:39.239 --> 0:52:41.600
<v Speaker 1>better because you can now have your phone up and

0:52:41.640 --> 0:52:45.400
<v Speaker 1>down instead of just this way. But anyway, all right,

0:52:45.680 --> 0:52:47.719
<v Speaker 1>Jim says, what kind of antivirus do you have on

0:52:47.760 --> 0:52:49.640
<v Speaker 1>your computer? I use a VAST and I love it.

0:52:49.840 --> 0:52:52.719
<v Speaker 1>I recommend a VAST. I have a Mac. I'm I

0:52:52.760 --> 0:52:55.000
<v Speaker 1>don't really have any antivirus on there, so I know

0:52:55.080 --> 0:52:57.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm kind of crazy like that. I used to have

0:52:57.800 --> 0:52:59.719
<v Speaker 1>a VAST on there when I did. In fact, I

0:52:59.760 --> 0:53:03.160
<v Speaker 1>just need to. I did have to format my computer recently,

0:53:03.200 --> 0:53:05.560
<v Speaker 1>so I'll probably put that back on. But AVG and

0:53:05.600 --> 0:53:07.840
<v Speaker 1>a VAST, there's one I liked better. I can't remember

0:53:07.840 --> 0:53:11.880
<v Speaker 1>which one it is, but they're both the same company anyway,

0:53:11.960 --> 0:53:16.720
<v Speaker 1>So but one I like slightly better. Yenni says, how

0:53:16.760 --> 0:53:19.919
<v Speaker 1>can I keep Windows PC safe if I don't buy antivirus?

0:53:19.960 --> 0:53:22.799
<v Speaker 1>The good news is antivirus is built into the new

0:53:22.880 --> 0:53:25.319
<v Speaker 1>version of Windows. So if you have Windows ten, just

0:53:25.400 --> 0:53:28.480
<v Speaker 1>make sure that Windows Defender is up to date, and

0:53:28.560 --> 0:53:33.160
<v Speaker 1>I'll show you this Windows Defender that is that's built in.

0:53:33.280 --> 0:53:36.759
<v Speaker 1>It's built into Windows ten, so you don't need anything else.

0:53:36.800 --> 0:53:40.000
<v Speaker 1>You actually don't need to spend any money on antivirus.

0:53:40.040 --> 0:53:42.520
<v Speaker 1>As long as you have this turned on and up

0:53:42.560 --> 0:53:45.239
<v Speaker 1>to date, you're good. Your device is protected. So a

0:53:45.280 --> 0:53:47.640
<v Speaker 1>lot of people don't realize that when it comes to

0:53:47.960 --> 0:53:51.880
<v Speaker 1>Windows ten, but antivirus and malware is malware. Defender is

0:53:51.920 --> 0:53:54.400
<v Speaker 1>built right into the computer, So just make sure that

0:53:54.440 --> 0:53:56.200
<v Speaker 1>you have that kind of up to date. Go ahead

0:53:56.239 --> 0:53:59.840
<v Speaker 1>and search for Windows Defender on your search bar and

0:54:00.480 --> 0:54:02.399
<v Speaker 1>you can find it and check out the settings on there.

0:54:03.000 --> 0:54:06.440
<v Speaker 1>All right, Yes, Max are susceptible to viruses, but they

0:54:06.440 --> 0:54:08.359
<v Speaker 1>don't have as many. And I'm kind of I know

0:54:08.520 --> 0:54:10.359
<v Speaker 1>kind of what I'm doing online when I'm when I'm

0:54:10.360 --> 0:54:12.839
<v Speaker 1>downloading stuff and all that, so I kind of know

0:54:12.880 --> 0:54:14.560
<v Speaker 1>where I would get a virus. I use all my

0:54:14.719 --> 0:54:16.560
<v Speaker 1>emails all web based, so I can't really get a

0:54:16.640 --> 0:54:18.920
<v Speaker 1>virus there, so you just have to be smart about it.

0:54:19.560 --> 0:54:23.000
<v Speaker 1>But i'd probably recommend I can't really say I recommend

0:54:23.040 --> 0:54:25.120
<v Speaker 1>you have antivirus on if you have a Mac, but

0:54:25.239 --> 0:54:27.360
<v Speaker 1>it's probably good to have if you're a casual user

0:54:27.719 --> 0:54:30.120
<v Speaker 1>and you know you're surfing the web and downloading stuff

0:54:30.160 --> 0:54:32.520
<v Speaker 1>once in a while. But on a Windows computer, you've

0:54:32.520 --> 0:54:34.879
<v Speaker 1>got it. If you've got Windows ten, all right, that's

0:54:34.880 --> 0:54:37.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna do it for the show. Thanks so much for listening.

0:54:37.560 --> 0:54:40.360
<v Speaker 1>I do appreciate it. A couple of things I'd like

0:54:40.400 --> 0:54:42.680
<v Speaker 1>you guys to do. If you tell your friends and

0:54:42.760 --> 0:54:45.280
<v Speaker 1>family about the Rich on Tech Live show, that'd be awesome.

0:54:45.719 --> 0:54:48.160
<v Speaker 1>Usually I'm here about Thursday's one o'clock. If you catch

0:54:48.160 --> 0:54:50.640
<v Speaker 1>me on Facebook Live, this is where I am. You've

0:54:50.640 --> 0:54:54.440
<v Speaker 1>noticed that some of you have figured out the pattern. Otherwise,

0:54:55.920 --> 0:54:58.040
<v Speaker 1>I love it if you listen to this as a podcast,

0:54:58.120 --> 0:55:00.600
<v Speaker 1>or just share this right now on face Book. If

0:55:00.600 --> 0:55:02.640
<v Speaker 1>you press that share button, that's really awesome because it

0:55:02.640 --> 0:55:04.600
<v Speaker 1>gets it into more people's feeds. They see it and

0:55:04.600 --> 0:55:06.600
<v Speaker 1>they say, oh my gosh, this is so cool. Let

0:55:06.680 --> 0:55:09.400
<v Speaker 1>me watch next time. If you're listening on the podcast,

0:55:09.480 --> 0:55:12.080
<v Speaker 1>just go ahead and screenshot your phone and send that

0:55:12.160 --> 0:55:15.360
<v Speaker 1>out on your social network so that people know. Screenshot

0:55:15.360 --> 0:55:17.480
<v Speaker 1>on the iPhone makes a great Instagram story and you

0:55:17.480 --> 0:55:19.200
<v Speaker 1>can tell people you're listening to rich on Tech. This

0:55:19.239 --> 0:55:22.319
<v Speaker 1>is how I got smart about tech. And the most

0:55:22.320 --> 0:55:24.600
<v Speaker 1>important thing you can do, of course, is twofold. You

0:55:24.600 --> 0:55:26.560
<v Speaker 1>can subscribe to it. All you have to do is

0:55:26.600 --> 0:55:30.040
<v Speaker 1>search rich on Tech in your favorite podcasting app. Just

0:55:30.120 --> 0:55:32.360
<v Speaker 1>hit that subscribe button and you will get every episode.

0:55:32.360 --> 0:55:35.400
<v Speaker 1>So Monday through Friday, now I'm doing a tech update,

0:55:35.640 --> 0:55:37.600
<v Speaker 1>so just a little tech story or a couple little

0:55:37.640 --> 0:55:40.680
<v Speaker 1>quick tech stories, usually under five minutes, super fast. You

0:55:40.680 --> 0:55:42.720
<v Speaker 1>can listen to it on your commute or whenever throughout

0:55:42.719 --> 0:55:45.280
<v Speaker 1>the day, keep up to date. And then on the weekends,

0:55:45.320 --> 0:55:47.120
<v Speaker 1>I put out this show so you can listen to

0:55:47.160 --> 0:55:50.120
<v Speaker 1>a longer form question and answer. And the other most

0:55:50.120 --> 0:55:52.000
<v Speaker 1>important thing you can do is rate and review the

0:55:52.040 --> 0:55:54.879
<v Speaker 1>show on iTunes. That is the big primary place where

0:55:54.880 --> 0:55:58.200
<v Speaker 1>people still find podcasts. So go on to Apple Podcasts

0:55:58.280 --> 0:56:02.080
<v Speaker 1>or iTunes and rate and review the show. If you

0:56:02.160 --> 0:56:04.320
<v Speaker 1>just give it a star, that's awesome. About five stars,

0:56:04.320 --> 0:56:06.759
<v Speaker 1>I should say, But if you write something that really

0:56:06.760 --> 0:56:09.960
<v Speaker 1>helps because basically, the more people that Apple sees reviewing

0:56:10.000 --> 0:56:12.600
<v Speaker 1>the show, the more people they show that to in

0:56:12.680 --> 0:56:14.960
<v Speaker 1>their little trending lists, in the top lists and all

0:56:14.960 --> 0:56:16.799
<v Speaker 1>that stuff. So that's where I want to be because

0:56:16.800 --> 0:56:18.800
<v Speaker 1>then all of a sudden, people start discovering you that

0:56:18.960 --> 0:56:21.560
<v Speaker 1>don't see me on TV, that don't know me, and

0:56:21.640 --> 0:56:24.480
<v Speaker 1>then the magic really happens. Thanks so much for listening.

0:56:24.600 --> 0:56:27.959
<v Speaker 1>Hope you enjoyed the show. I'm Richidimiro richon tech dot TV.

0:56:28.160 --> 0:56:30.759
<v Speaker 1>If you want links to some of the stuff I mentioned. Otherwise,

0:56:30.800 --> 0:56:33.520
<v Speaker 1>have a fantastic day. I will talk to you next

0:56:33.520 --> 0:56:34.120
<v Speaker 1>time about it.
