Does that count as leaving 26 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 3: the house? 27 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: Ah, yeah, that's nice. Yeah, that that helps. I mean 28 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: I feel like my entire neighborhood is walking. Have you 29 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: noticed that that? Oh yeah, everyone is walking. It's like 30 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: the only thing you can do. 31 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 3: The one thing I have noticed is in my neighborhood 32 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 3: people think that if they're running, they don't have to 33 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 3: wear a mask. Like every runner I see no mask, 34 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:40,119 Speaker 3: and I'm always like, yeah, no, I don't like most people, 35 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,039 Speaker 3: Oh you haven't, Oh I don't. 36 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: I don't wear them on walks either. I only wear them, 37 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: like the only the only thing you're supposed to do 38 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: is wear them when you go to the grocery, to 39 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: a store, to a business. 40 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 3: Really, every like everyone I see out walking, they're all 41 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 3: wearing masks. 42 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 2: Well yeah, a lot of people are doing that. 43 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: I mean it's not required at this point, so I 44 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: mean I will do it if it's required, but until then, 45 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 1: I will not do that. Yeah, because I just a 46 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: I don't. I think it'd be really tricky. 47 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 2: To run with a mask. But yeah, I see, I 48 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 2: see kind of half in half. 49 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: It's you know, it's I think it depends on also 50 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: your personal comfort level with what's going on. 51 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 3: Yeah.

I guess I'm in that you 55 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 2: don't do that. No, I do do that, Like I'm. 56 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 3: I'm wow, one of those. 57 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I don't really understand because like there's no 58 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: requirement for the masks outside, so I. 59 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 2: Just like in the grocery sure, yeah. 60 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, the only my parents make me wear a mask 61 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 3: or like you have to wear a mask outside, well, 62 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 3: if you're going to be like if you're walking and 63 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 3: there's like other people around, Like that's what I thought. 64 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 2: I don't know, No, I haven't heard that. 65 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: I know at businesses, like it is required at businesses, 66 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: so that's the only only place I know it's required. 67 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 2: I do think that's going to change. I probably. 68 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: I think it's going to changed to outside in general 69 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: in the next you know, probably in the next couple 70 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: of weeks, if they decide to do that. I don't know, 71 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: but I did go to the grocery store yesterday at 72 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: Trader Joe's, and I will tell you it used to 73 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: be really fun to go to the grocery store, and 74 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: now it is the worst experience because it's depressing. 75 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 2: It's sad. 76 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 1: People are acting like everyone has you know, these crazy 77 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: like it Like you said, when people like are jogging 78 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: past you, you just assume like, oh, I'm gonna get 79 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: something like that's the way everyone's acting now, And I 80 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: get it. 81 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 2: You have to be prepared and kind of on guard. 82 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: But at the grocery store it's like people are just 83 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: really being weird. So and then you have to go 84 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: into the grocery store and you have to walk like 85 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: a certain way. 86 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 2: So anyway, it was not fun yesterday. 87 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: And then I got yelled at the at the cashier 88 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: because I wasn't standing in the red box that I 89 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: was supposed to be standing in. 90 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 2: That also happened to be at home depot. So I'm 91 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 2: going to. 92 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: Start looking at all floor markings when I check out 93 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: from now on because I'm getting checked a lot. Well, 94 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: let's talk about the big story of the week besides coronavirus. 95 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: And this was very smart for Apple to do this 96 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: at this time. It's been a long time rumor, it's 97 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: finally happening. The iPhone S is a real iPhone and 98 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 1: the price could not be better. Three hundred and ninety 99 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: nine dollars, which just blows everyone else out of the 100 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 1: water because you cannot get a phone for three hundred 101 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: and ninety nine dollars new. You also can't get a 102 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: phone of iPhone quality for three hundred and ninety nine dollars. 103 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: So the fact that Apple is doing this is brilliant. 104 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 1: They could have sold this phone for four ninety nine 105 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: and people would have been happy with that. 106 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 2: Three ninety nine is really amazing. 107 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: Now, with that said, I'm not saying that Apple is 108 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: doing us a favor by coming out with this phone, 109 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: because it's a design that's been around for years. This 110 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 1: is the iPhone eight with new insides, so they already 111 00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: had the outside. The screen is old news. There's nothing 112 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: new about the screen, the touch id that's on it. 113 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: It's got the home button that's not new. So basically, 114 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: they didn't have to invent anything for this phone. They 115 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: just took parts from other devices and just popped it 116 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: into this phone and they can sell it at a 117 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: pretty good price. 118 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 2: The only thing. 119 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 1: That could be new or similar to I mean, or 120 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: kind of modified or they had to work on is 121 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: the camera, because it's not the same camera that's in 122 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: the iPhone eleven. It's not the old camera. It's kind 123 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: of a mix of those things. So this is a 124 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: four point seven inch HD screen. It's got touch ID 125 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: like I said, which means there is a home button 126 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: and there's I don't think it has face ID obviously, 127 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: because that would be totally different. But the cool thing is, Megan, 128 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 1: that this has the top of the line A thirteen chip, 129 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: which is the same chip you get in the iPhone eleven, 130 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: so you're not sacrificing any speed on this. 131 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 3: Device, which crazy. 132 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: I think it's pretty cool. So black, white, and red. Friday, 133 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: April seventeenth is the pre order date and it will 134 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 1: be in hands on April twenty fourth. It does have 135 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: wireless charging, by the way, and for that three ninety 136 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: nine price, it's sixty four gigabytes, so personally I would 137 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: bump up to the one twenty eight gigs. If you 138 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: follow me on Twitter, you know that I've filled up 139 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: my iPhone at two hundred and fifty six. I am 140 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 1: totally filled up. And it's sad to me, Megan, because 141 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: I don't want to. I have Google Photos and I 142 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: can do that thing where it frees up all the 143 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: space by deleting all the photos off my phone. But 144 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 1: it's like really sad to me to do that because 145 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: I like having all my photos on there, or all 146 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: the photos I've taken in recent months. But anyway, so 147 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: this thing is gonna sell bananas. I can't imagine a 148 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: better selling phone in the next twelve months. 149 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 3: I can't believe the price, Like it's so it's so crazy, Like. 150 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 2: Remember when your father was in the market for a 151 00:06:58,240 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: new phone. 152 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 3: And been the phone he should have gone. 153 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: Right, this would have been the phone. 154 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: This is the phone for so many people that don't 155 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: necessarily need the best, and even not saying it's the best, 156 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: this is really I will say, there's almost nothing on 157 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: this device that I can fall apple for now I'm 158 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: saying all that without having it in hand yet, so 159 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe when I get this thing, I'm like, oh, 160 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: this screen is terrible or it's not as fast as 161 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: I think because they use some sort of old memory. 162 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: But the fact that it's got the best processor on 163 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: it and a pretty good camera and at this price, 164 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: I can't really imagine a better deal. 165 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 2: So I'm impressed. 166 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 3: At what what's the camera comparable to? 167 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: Well, we don't know because they just kind of mixed. 168 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: They said they they just mixed a whole bunch of 169 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: camera technology, so it sounds like it's old and new. 170 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,239 Speaker 1: So we don't know yet until we actually take pictures 171 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: with it how good it is or how bad it 172 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: is compared to the iPhone eleven. 173 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 2: But I think it's going to be just fine, to 174 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: be honest. 175 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: If you're spending four hundred bucks on a phone and 176 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: you're getting all this stuff, I think the camera is 177 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: going to be just fine. 178 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, cool, that's you. 179 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: Okay, So our first question can you hear that sound 180 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: when I did that? 181 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 3: Yeah? I heard it. Yeah. Our first question comes from 182 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 3: f Eff. I read your article on Zoom Alternatives. Why 183 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 3: didn't you mention go to meeting dot com? I used WebEx, 184 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 3: but it's hard to use when others are not comfortable 185 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 3: on their computer. I needed a service. I could just 186 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 3: send a link to participate, no codes or software. Right, 187 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 3: go to meeting dot com. 188 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,439 Speaker 1: Good question and the reason I did not put go 189 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: to meeting in my roundup. I got a lot of 190 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: angry emails from folks when I did that. Do you 191 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: remember the story we did on the Zoom alternatives? 192 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:51,719 Speaker 2: We did that, yeah last week? 193 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was last week, so yeah, lots of em 194 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: That was a very popular story, by the way, but 195 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: the emails I got were so angry. People are like, well, 196 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: how came you to include this? And how can you 197 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: include that? 198 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 2: Number one? 199 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: I said seven alternatives or six alternati. I didn't say 200 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: every alternative I can't make. 201 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 3: We also didn't say the best ever like that. 202 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: I didn't say, you know, but now, And these are 203 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: the things that I don't get to talk about on 204 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: TV because I'm on for like, you know, a minute thirty. 205 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: I can't necessarily explain every reasoning behind every story. But 206 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,959 Speaker 1: what I do is behind the scenes, I put a 207 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: lot of effort and research and prep into my segments 208 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,319 Speaker 1: so that when you see them on TV, they are 209 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: the information that I think you need to know, kind 210 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: of like this podcast. And the reality is I did 211 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 1: go through a whole bunch of alternatives, and I pared 212 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: them down to what I thought was a good mix 213 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: of alternatives for the people watching. And let me explain 214 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: what that means. Yes, go to meeting is a good alternative, 215 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: but it's not one of the alternatives I want to include, 216 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: because the number one thing about go to meeting is 217 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: that there is no free tier. 218 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 2: And that was the Bob Online. 219 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: Now maybe you could try it free for seven days. 220 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: But again, I'm doing a segment that is broadcast across 221 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of stations nationwide, and there are people 222 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 1: watching that are trusting the information that I'm giving them, 223 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 1: and I have to give them information fast, quick and 224 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 1: in a simple way. 225 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 2: And I did the research, and so when I. 226 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: Looked at go to meeting the problem is I just 227 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:28,079 Speaker 1: didn't really see a free solution there. And so of course, 228 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: now that I'm seeing this, it does say there is 229 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: a free one. 230 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 3: So now, okay, sorry, I love the honesty. 231 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 1: Okay, so unlimited free online meetings. But I'm curious what. Okay, 232 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: so here's what they offer for free. And now I'm 233 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: just seeing this, and this could be new based on coronavirus, right, 234 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: So they're offering up to three participants for free, up 235 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: to forty minutes. So again that's not necessarily what I 236 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: wanted to do. I wanted things that were free for 237 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of people, and just the most 238 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: universal things that I think I could recommend. So Go 239 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: to Meetings was not included because mainly it costs money, 240 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: and that's kind of the main reason. Now I'm not 241 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: saying it's bad, but again, like you said, I'm just 242 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: giving people a bunch of options, and that was these 243 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: were the options that I felt were the best for 244 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: my segment. 245 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 2: And I did a mix. 246 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: You know, we did that one called house Party, which 247 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: is kind of a fun one. Then we did one yeah, 248 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:28,959 Speaker 1: we did Skype, which you know, I did the pros 249 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 1: and cons. 250 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 3: Of each, So if you had to pick your favorite 251 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 3: and then your least favorite from the ones that we did. 252 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 2: My favorite. 253 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: It turns out that Zoom Actually there is a reason 254 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: why Zoom took off the way it did. 255 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: It works really well. 256 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 1: And I will say I will talk about another one 257 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: that I will reveal later in the show that we 258 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: tested that I actually think is really cool. It's only 259 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: one on one, but I think that Zoom is the 260 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: best option for most people. 261 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 2: I don't like the forty men limit. 262 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: Have you come up against that in your like, yeah, 263 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 1: like a friend's happy hour or something. The first time 264 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 1: I came up against it, it was kind of annoying because 265 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: I thought I could just hop out and my friend 266 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: could take over and then I could hop back in. 267 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 2: That did not work. 268 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 1: So we did have to disconnect and reconnect, which I 269 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 1: thought was a little annoying. But I'm not paying fifteen 270 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: bucks a month right now. 271 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 3: Do you the least favorite out of the list. 272 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 2: My least favorite? 273 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: I think FaceTime is just I never really liked FaceTime 274 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:28,719 Speaker 1: and I'm still not. 275 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 3: A fan of it. 276 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 2: It's just it's too annoying. 277 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: It's too confusing, it's too like I don't really understand 278 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: what number I'm calling with people, and it's like too limiting. 279 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 3: I just don't like it, and it's weird when there's 280 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 3: multiple people the way Yeah the boxes move like it's 281 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 3: distracting and we don't need things to like move around 282 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 3: for a video conference. Yeah. 283 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 1: I think what I like about Zoom the most is 284 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: the format. Like what if folks are watching on Facebook 285 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: Live right now, the format is is just side by 286 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 1: side if you want, if you have two people. I 287 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: like how it just moves depending on how many people 288 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: you have. And they also have that view where the 289 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 1: person that's talking is like big and then everyone else 290 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: is small. But I kind of like just keeping everyone 291 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 1: in the same size all the time and you see 292 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: who's talking because they're highlighted. 293 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, let's move on to the next story. 294 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 2: Another phone that launched this week, and. 295 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: A long time ago when I did my tech segment, 296 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,319 Speaker 1: I used to compare every phone that was Android against 297 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: the iPhone. And now I just don't do that anymore, because, 298 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,439 Speaker 1: you know what, the reality is not everyone's comparing against 299 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: the iPhone. Most people are sort of in their bucket 300 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: of iOS. They're sticking with Apple or they're sticking with Android. 301 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: I don't really see as many people wanting to switch 302 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: anymore these days. It used to be always like people 303 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: would be like, hey, Rich, I get the Samsung and 304 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 1: ditch the iPhone. I don't get that question anymore. I 305 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: really don't very rarely. So there's a new phone. It's 306 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: the one plus one plus eight Pro. And I will 307 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: say this is probably my favorite Android phone of the year. 308 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 2: It's it's a great device. 309 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: I think there is one major problem with this device, 310 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: and it is the edges of the screen are curved, 311 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: and it makes it not only tough to hold, but 312 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: really annoying because I'm always touching something on the screen 313 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 1: that I don't mean to touch. 314 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: And it's a weird. 315 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a really weird thing that iPhones have never 316 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: had that problem. And when you use an Android, they 317 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: always seem to have that problem, and this one has 318 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 1: it really bad. 319 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 2: And it's kind of annoying. 320 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: Other than that, this is the best phone out there 321 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: that you can get for Android. I will tell you why. 322 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: Number one, It's a great size, got a big screen. 323 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: It's got a really high quality screen one hundred and 324 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: twenty hurts refresh rate, which means that it is so 325 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: buttery smooth you will not believe it. It's got a 326 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: great processor, it's got a ton of memory, ton of ram. 327 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 2: The camera. 328 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: Every time I've done a OnePlus story in the past, 329 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: I always said, well, the camera is just okay. This 330 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: time the the camera is fantastic. I mean it really, 331 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: truly is a fantastic camera. I wish the colors popped 332 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: a little bit more, and especially on the front facing camera, 333 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: everything looks very washed out. Some people might like that 334 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: because it makes your skin look better, but I don't know. 335 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: It's it's one of those things where I just wish 336 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: it had better color. It's got wireless charging for the 337 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: first time, it's got water resistance for the first time 338 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: on a OnePlus, and the price is pretty amazing. Eight 339 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: hundred and ninety nine dollars, and I get it. I'm 340 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: not recommending anyone purchase anything right now during this uncertain 341 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: time of jobs and work and all this stuff. But 342 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: for eight hundred and ninety nine dollars if you did 343 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: have money saved up for a phone, that's a great 344 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: price for what you're getting. Because I would compare this 345 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: phone to the Samsung Galaxy S twenty, which is thirteen 346 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: hundred and ninety nine dollars, and this phone, I think 347 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: is a better phone. The only other thing I will 348 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: say I don't like about it is the haptics on it. 349 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: So and haptics, Megan, is when your phone vibrates when 350 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 1: you touch something on screen. 351 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 2: Do you know what I'm talking out? 352 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: The iPhone does it best, The Samsung Galaxy S twenty 353 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: does it really well. This phone does not do it 354 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 1: well at all. And it's really sad to me because 355 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: it's kind of it's not a deal breaker, but it's 356 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: just one of those things where like it's very like 357 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: flimsy feeling, and I'm like, this is a great phone, 358 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 1: Why does the haptic feel so flimsy? Otherwise one plus 359 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: eight pro I think is fantastic. They also launched another phone, 360 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: the one plus eight and that's six hundred and ninety 361 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 1: nine dollars. I thought that was a great phone, a 362 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: great little device, but now I can't recommend it with 363 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: an iPhone at three ninety nine. 364 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 2: Three ninety nine, iPhone will be. 365 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 1: The device that I recommend for the next inforeseeable future 366 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: for the average person. 367 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 3: I can't really imagine once you review it. 368 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 2: I don't even think I need to review it. 369 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 3: I think that you're like, I know, I've trust that nice. 370 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like, it's like, I just can't imagine 371 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: a better product for the average person who just wants 372 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 1: a good phone, because not only are you getting the iPhone, 373 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,479 Speaker 1: you're getting iOS, You're getting all the great apps that 374 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: work along with it, all the accessories that work with iPhone. 375 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: You're getting things like the Apple Watch and air Uh 376 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 1: what is it not Airplay? What's the thing when you 377 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:19,120 Speaker 1: send stuff to. 378 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 2: H Airdrop, I get think of it. You know what 379 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 2: I'm saying. You get the whole kit and kaboodle. 380 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 3: You get the whole situation. Okay. Next question comes from 381 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 3: Troy hi Rich. Hope You're well, what's your favorite travel 382 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 3: size blue tooth speaker? 383 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 2: That's a good question. It's funny. 384 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 1: I half the time I go to a hotel room, 385 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: I bring a speaker, and half the time I forget 386 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: to bring my speaker. So I in the times I forget, 387 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,360 Speaker 1: I just use my phone. But when I do bring 388 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: a speaker, I always love having a speaker in my 389 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: hotel room because it's just nice to have that music 390 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 1: that sounds a little bit better than coming off your 391 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: phone speaker. So my favorite is the Ultimate Ears Logitech. 392 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: Ultimate Ears is to me the little speaker that I 393 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: have been bringing around for a while because it's small, 394 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: it's simple, and it's easy, and they make a whole 395 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 1: bunch of different ones. But the one that I've been 396 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 1: taking around the most in the past couple of years 397 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:27,199 Speaker 1: has been called the Wonder Boom, and it's it's not 398 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: that expensive. 399 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 2: I think it's like sixty nine bucks. Depending on when 400 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 2: you get it's. 401 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: Two hundred, it's one hundred dollars, but a lot of 402 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 1: times it goes on sale for less. 403 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 2: But the Wonder Boom is a good one. 404 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: If you don't want that, and you know, do you 405 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: really need that great audio quality in your hotel room. 406 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 2: Probably not. 407 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: I think you'll be just as well served with the 408 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: Amazon Basics Bluetooth speaker. And that speaker if you can 409 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: find it in stock and get it delivered from Amazon, 410 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 1: is twenty six dollars and sixty four cents. 411 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 3: Oh wow. 412 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 1: You know, if you don't really care that much, I 413 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 1: think this will be just fine. And you know, let 414 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: me see, now, how do I can I paste a comment? Yeah, 415 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put my comment onto the screen. If so, 416 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: if you're watching on Facebook Live, you should be able 417 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 1: to see my comment, but maybe not. Everything's delayed on Facebook. 418 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: There goes okay, so. 419 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 2: Now I find it. 420 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: So So, I mean those are my two picks. I 421 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 1: think those are both great. But again, like I'm not 422 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 1: an audio file, so I don't I get when I 423 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: listen to music on a good speaker. Like I was 424 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,239 Speaker 1: just telling my wife last night because we bought that 425 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:38,359 Speaker 1: son No move. 426 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: It's a it's a son No speaker, so it's expensive. 427 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,239 Speaker 1: It was four hundred bucks and at the time I 428 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 1: was like, so I really need this speaker, like it's 429 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 1: just for the backyard. But now I have grown to 430 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: love it because I bring it everywhere. It's like it 431 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 1: has a little handle on it, and now I just 432 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: bring it wherever I am in the house or outside, 433 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: front yard, backyard. And I guess maybe I bought it 434 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,719 Speaker 1: at the best time. I bought it before coronavirus, So 435 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 1: we have been home so much. I listen to music 436 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 1: all the time at home.

I'm 503 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 3: not like constantly listening to music. And you said you 504 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 3: listen like constantly. 505 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 2: All day, like I definitely always on. 506 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I probably listened for like two hours. 507 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: It's funny because like whenever I come home and like 508 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: Lindsay's doing well, now, I don't come home anymore because 509 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: I'm just always home. But like whenever Lindsay is like 510 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 1: sitting there doing something, I'm like, why don't you have 511 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,119 Speaker 1: music on? Like to me, the first thing I do, 512 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,479 Speaker 1: like if I'm making breakfast is put on. And I 513 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: have days too, like on Saturdays and Sundays, I'm mostly 514 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: acoustic music, so I. 515 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 2: You know I do. 516 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 3: You're very specific. 517 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I feel like you should change your music depending, 518 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 1: Like if you're always listening to the same music on 519 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 1: Monday through Sunday or Saturday whatever the whole week, I 520 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: feel like it doesn't differentiate to me. On Saturday and 521 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 1: Sunday morning I usually do or especially Sunday morning. Sunday 522 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 1: is coffee house music, so I have to do XM 523 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 1: coffee house or I've got coffee house playlists on all 524 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: of music services I subscribe to several, so I listen, 525 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: you know, hop. 526 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 2: Between some of them. 527 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 1: But I definitely have to do acoustic music or coffee 528 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,919 Speaker 1: house style music on at least Sunday, sometimes Saturday, but 529 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 1: mostly just Sunday, just to differentiate in my brain, like 530 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: this is a day, this is a special day, and 531 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 1: it's right right, It's a day where your mind needs 532 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 1: to relax. 533 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I love that. 534 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 2: I know I'm weird. 535 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: TikTok has some new parental controls that you'll like as 536 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: a parent, your kids will hate. And it's called family Pairing, 537 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,399 Speaker 1: and it allows you to do several things. It allows 538 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: you to set up screen time management, which your kids 539 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 1: are gonna hate, and so you can you can set 540 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 1: a time limit for how long your kids can be 541 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: on TikTok. Then you have restricted modes. So I told 542 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: you along time on this a long time ago, on 543 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: this podcast Megan that I when I started looking at TikTok, 544 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: there was like swear words in all the videos, like 545 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:10,880 Speaker 1: a lot of them had them, And so I thought 546 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: it was a little surprising, And you said, well, maybe 547 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,399 Speaker 1: it was customized whatever, and maybe it did do it 548 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 1: on my data birth or whatever. And like if I 549 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 1: put in that I was thirteen, maybe it wouldn't do that, 550 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 1: but I thought that was kind of annoying. So I'm 551 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: glad they have a restricted mode so you can set 552 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: that up for your kids, and then direct messages you 553 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 1: can restrict if they can only message their friends and 554 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: not random people, which is also really smart. It's funny 555 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 1: because TikTok says, you know, many many start their creator 556 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 1: journey at thirteen, which is like the minimum age for 557 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 1: being on all these online platforms. 558 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 2: But you know there's kids on TikTok that are like 559 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 2: eight and nine. 560 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,919 Speaker 1: But of course TikTok just has to say that so 561 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 1: that they sound like they're following the letter of the law. 562 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: So the thing that you need to know about these 563 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 1: new family pairing restrictions or whatever you want to call 564 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: them settings is that as a parent, you have to 565 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 1: have an account and you link your account to your 566 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: child's account. So what I think is really ironic about 567 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: these family pairing settings is that to set them up, 568 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: the parent has to create an account. 569 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 2: And so is this like a growth hack by TikTok just. 570 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 1: To get more accounts because the parent now has to 571 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: have an account to set up their kids account or 572 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:26,719 Speaker 1: to control their kids account. 573 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, basically they're just doubling their users. 574 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 1: Right, And you know the kids aren't going to tell 575 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 1: their parents about this. You know, the parents aren't going 576 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: to discover it on their own. So realistically, the only 577 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:38,439 Speaker 1: way you're gonna find out about it is if you're 578 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,199 Speaker 1: listening to someone like me tell you about it. 579 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 2: Anyways. You know, kids aren't. 580 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:44,719 Speaker 1: Gonna be like, oh, mom and dad, you need to 581 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 1: set up your parent accounts. 582 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,880 Speaker 3: You can, you know, so your kids aren't on TikTok. 583 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 2: Oh No, I take again my kids. Every day. 584 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: All I hear from my kids is I want to 585 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 1: be a YouTuber. I want to be on TikTok? Can 586 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 1: I be on Instagram? Can I be on YouTube? It 587 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 1: just goes in circles and I'm like no, and then 588 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 1: they go, well, dad, you're on them And I'm like, well, 589 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: I know, but I'm I kind of have to be 590 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:08,159 Speaker 1: even though I do love it. 591 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah.

Look. 743 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: As far as we know, Zoom was created to be 744 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 1: as encrypted as possible, as private as possible. With that said, 745 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: it does not mean that one of these videos can't 746 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: get out. It doesn't mean that someone can't hack into them. 747 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean that it can't be cracked. But for 748 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 1: all intents and purposes as we know it, yes, Zoom 749 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: is an okay place to conduct your business, to talk 750 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: this and that, and there is a level of encryption. 751 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,760 Speaker 1: Does that mean that nobody in the world could see. 752 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 2: What you're doing. 753 00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 1: No, So you have to keep that in mind.

So if you want a super encrypted, secure 758 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:17,240 Speaker 1: service because what was the person's name, Liah, because Leah, 759 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 1: you're running a bank online and you need to talk 760 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: to your executive about secret things that you're doing with 761 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 1: your bank, you might want to look into paying for 762 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,360 Speaker 1: a service that meets your needs. But if you're like 763 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 1: me and you're having happy hour with your friends on 764 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,799 Speaker 1: Thursday night at five o'clock, I really don't care if 765 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 1: you see what I'm doing on my happy hour, right 766 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,319 Speaker 1: if it happened to get out there. Now, I like 767 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,479 Speaker 1: to imagine that it's safe and it's secure and people 768 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,840 Speaker 1: can't pop in and watch, but we do know that, 769 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,760 Speaker 1: like I mentioned on my podcast, I think last week 770 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,839 Speaker 1: my five year old was able to tap into someone 771 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: else's Zoom by just typing in a bunch of random numbers. 772 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: I do believe that Zoom has stopped that from happening, 773 00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:01,280 Speaker 1: because now, if you notice, every Zoom require a password 774 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: at this point, and so, well, actually I'm looking at 775 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: this and it doesn't so maybe, yeah, I guess people 776 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 1: could just get in on it. 777 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 3: So now don't you like, great, I just showed our 778 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 3: Zoom on here, so now people can go up. 779 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 2: Great. Well they'd have to have pretty to see that, 780 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 2: but whatever. 781 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,280 Speaker 1: But yeah, a lot of the Zooms now, I think, 782 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 1: I think for the new anyway, Zoom has done a 783 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 1: bunch in recent weeks to kind of fix all the 784 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 1: little holes that. 785 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 2: Were in Zoom. 786 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,359 Speaker 1: So I might the short, the long answer to your 787 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 1: short question is that look like anything else, it's just 788 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 1: as secure as we think it is, and it's probably 789 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 1: not as secure as we think it is, right, there 790 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: could be people out there that are working every minute 791 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 1: to hack into this stuff, and you have to keep 792 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:52,400 Speaker 1: that in mind. 793 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:53,240 Speaker 2: That's my answer. 794 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, speaking of privacy, Google and Apple, this 795 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: was a story on KTLA today. Google and Apple are 796 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 1: partnering on this system called contact tracing, and this is 797 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 1: pretty interesting. Did you understand this story, Megan when you 798 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:09,840 Speaker 1: saw it like the you know, when you kind of 799 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 1: saw our story and read it all, did you get 800 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:13,400 Speaker 1: kind of what they were doing At first? 801 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 3: I was just kind of like what, Yeah, I was 802 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 3: kind of confusing. I mean, I get it now. 803 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 1: It is confusing, and yeah, the bottom line, let me 804 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 1: explain this the best I can. So, Apple and Google 805 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,359 Speaker 1: have worked on a system that will work on both 806 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: iPhones and androids to use the bluetooth in your phone 807 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: to broadcast a little beacon from your phone. And it's 808 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 1: a randomly changing number every couple of minutes, ten to 809 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:40,720 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes. And so when I walked past you, Meghan, 810 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: when you said, like the person that ran and coughed 811 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 1: all over you outside, Yeah, yeah, that probably will not 812 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 1: register under this system because you guys were not close 813 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 1: enough for a long enough period of time for your 814 00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 1: phones to say Megan was in this person's presence for 815 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 1: long enough where she could have gotten this disease. So 816 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 1: now if you were to sit down next to that 817 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:06,919 Speaker 1: person on a park bench for eight minutes and talk 818 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:08,839 Speaker 1: to that person maybe, or even if you didn't talk 819 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 1: to them, your phones would exchange that little number. And 820 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: so what happens is, let's say that runner goes off 821 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 1: on their merry way, you go off on your life, 822 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 1: and next thing you know, that runner gets diagnosed with COVID. 823 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 1: They go into the system and say I was diagnosed 824 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: with COVID nineteen. Now their number is flagged. All the 825 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:30,880 Speaker 1: numbers that they broadcasted during those times were flagged. And 826 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 1: your phone goes up to the server and it says, 827 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:35,359 Speaker 1: let me just check to see if any of these 828 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 1: numbers that Megan's phone came into contact with were flagged. 829 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 1: And it goes, oh, shoot, one of them was. And 830 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 1: now your phone says to you, Megan, it looks like 831 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: you might have been exposed to this disease. Doesn't tell 832 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,400 Speaker 1: you where or when or how, It just says that 833 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 1: you were. And because they're not keeping track of location, 834 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 1: they're not keeping track of user identities. They're literally just 835 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 1: seeing that that one number that pinged your phone at 836 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 1: some point was flagged. And so now you have to 837 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:06,279 Speaker 1: go and quarantine yourself or use that information however you want. 838 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 3: But you have to if you're diagnosed with it, you 839 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 3: have to go and put that on your account. You 840 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 3: have to like download this app and like right, yes. 841 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 1: You have to go put it into the system. And 842 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:20,240 Speaker 1: the way they're getting past people being you know, smart 843 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 1: about this or I guess I should say silly about 844 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 1: this and just putting in you know, oh I was 845 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:28,760 Speaker 1: infected and just messing with other people, is that generally, 846 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: when you get the COVID nineteen test, there will be 847 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 1: a QR code on that test that you would scan 848 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 1: and that's the only way that you can enter yourself 849 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:38,800 Speaker 1: into the system. 850 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:40,719 Speaker 2: That's what they've done in other countries. 851 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 1: And the other thing is that you know, so at 852 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 1: the beginning, there will be an app that you have 853 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 1: to download for this to work. But eventually, and this 854 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,360 Speaker 1: is where Apple and Google come in working together, is 855 00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:54,840 Speaker 1: that they're going to build this into their mobile operating systems. 856 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 1: So literally this will be built into iOS and Android. 857 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 1: And I'm not sure if it's going to be opt 858 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:02,320 Speaker 1: in at. 859 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 2: When that happens. 860 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: But from what I've read online, some outlets were reporting that, 861 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 1: like let's say you did pass someone, they would kind 862 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:12,959 Speaker 1: of give you like a free thing of like, hey, 863 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,280 Speaker 1: you know, you did come into contact with this person, 864 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: and here's your alert, and you'd be like, oh, shoot, 865 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:19,400 Speaker 1: I didn't even sign up for that. But I'm not 866 00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 1: sure I didn't hear that. I listened to the whole 867 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 1: conference call with Apple and Google. I did not personally 868 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: hear that. I heard that everything was going to be 869 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,320 Speaker 1: opt in, So I'm not sure if that's one hundred 870 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: percent correct. But if they did that, it would definitely 871 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 1: get more people on board because you'd be like, oh, 872 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 1: you know, I'm in this system. 873 00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 3: So have they ever worked together like this before. 874 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 1: Not at an application like a developer level like this, 875 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 1: at this low level where the operating system talks to 876 00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:48,760 Speaker 1: the other operating system through Bluetooth, They have never. 877 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 2: Really done that. 878 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:49,800 Speaker 3: That's crazy. 879 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 2: So it is. It is crazy. 880 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: But again, and I'm just playing Devil's advocate here, these 881 00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 1: are two big tech companies that have seen the world 882 00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 1: stop and they've seen a lot of money stop flown. 883 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 1: Apple stores are closed Google. I mean imagine, I imagine 884 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 1: this is good for Google in a certain way because 885 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 1: people are on their computers more. But overall, it's just 886 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,040 Speaker 1: not a good thing to have the world stop working, right, 887 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 1: And so they are being smart about this as tech 888 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:18,840 Speaker 1: companies that want to help kind of get things moving. 889 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 1: But I think there is an interest in these tech 890 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,360 Speaker 1: companies to say, we need to get this world working again, 891 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 1: and we need to get things to a place of 892 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 1: normalcy again. And I'm not sure that this program will 893 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:31,400 Speaker 1: do that, but it definitely can help nudge us in 894 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,440 Speaker 1: that direction. And I do think that's why they're doing this, 895 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 1: because normally these guys are I would describe as frenemies 896 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 1: because Apple doesn't really need Google, but Google kind of 897 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 1: needs Apple for you know, all the search terms that 898 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 1: are typed in on iPhones. So and at the end 899 00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 1: of the day, I'm ready to get back to work 900 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 1: in a normal way, and I am ready for some 901 00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:00,359 Speaker 1: solution to this COVID issue. And if this, if this 902 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: becomes a part of the solution, that's a good thing. 903 00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 1: And I think a lot of this comes down to 904 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,080 Speaker 1: h and my wife and I, like we just talk 905 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 1: about this every night, like how is there going to 906 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,399 Speaker 1: be a solution this besides a vaccine? And I think 907 00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 1: a lot of it is coming down to people knowing 908 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 1: they have it earlier, or knowing they were exposed earlier, 909 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 1: so that they take themselves out of play, and that 910 00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:25,760 Speaker 1: means they sit home and they're not infecting other people 911 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:28,840 Speaker 1: for two weeks, not knowing until they come down. 912 00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 2: With a crazy cough or whatever. 913 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 1: Like, if you get a notification, you know, as soon 914 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 1: as you've come into contact with someone else that has it, 915 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: those two weeks could be crucial in helping you not 916 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:41,840 Speaker 1: infect a whole bunch of other people at the club, 917 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:42,720 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Megan. 918 00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:46,440 Speaker 3: But so like what if you, you know, come into 919 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 3: contact with someone and then you get the notification, you 920 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 3: just have to like like not go to work for 921 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 3: two weeks. I mean things were normal again. 922 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, like you know, you don't know. 923 00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:58,080 Speaker 1: You have to take it with a grain of salt, 924 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,080 Speaker 1: you know, Like, well you have to sit there, and 925 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:02,800 Speaker 1: I think just knowing is better than not. But again, 926 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,719 Speaker 1: you're just bringing up one of a million kind of 927 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 1: questions about this product, right, Like it doesn't so okay, 928 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 1: now I can't go to work for two weeks because 929 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,239 Speaker 1: I got this notification like how long who was? 930 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:16,920 Speaker 3: And if you live in New York City, right, you're 931 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 3: gonna get that notification all the time. 932 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:20,799 Speaker 2: It's very complicated. 933 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 1: Again, this is why I say, I think this is 934 00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:27,719 Speaker 1: just one portion of a plan to recovery. And I 935 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:29,399 Speaker 1: think there's gonna be a lot more, like you said, 936 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: like the masks everywhere, the just the testing, the rapid testing, 937 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 1: instant testing, and a body testing. 938 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 2: It's gonna be a lot. All right, let me just 939 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 2: give one. 940 00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:42,239 Speaker 1: More story real quick before we go, because it is 941 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:43,840 Speaker 1: the end of the show. But I do think this 942 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 1: is important because everyone has their kids at home and 943 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,439 Speaker 1: on Google Play. They now have a separate section of 944 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 1: Google Play called Teacher Approved. So this is a kids 945 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,640 Speaker 1: tab with apps that are teacher approved. So if your 946 00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,360 Speaker 1: kids are like mine and they're constantly asking you toload 947 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,399 Speaker 1: apps this, you never know if these apps are good 948 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:05,920 Speaker 1: or bad for the kids. All these apps now in 949 00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 1: this section have been scanned by academic experts and teachers 950 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 1: and chosen for apps that are good for the kids. 951 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:16,960 Speaker 1: So if you're looking to download apps for the kids 952 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,239 Speaker 1: on Google Play, look for the new kids tab and 953 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:24,240 Speaker 1: the teacher approved badge that will help you find apps 954 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 1: that are actually decent for your kids. Mine are playing 955 00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 1: Minecraft in some other games, but you know, I'm always 956 00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:32,600 Speaker 1: looking for apps that are better for them, right, So 957 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,800 Speaker 1: all right, that's going to do it for the podcast, Megan, 958 00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 1: Can you believe it?
