1
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:13,920
Speaker 1: Twitter goes premium for three dollars a month. YouTube gets

2
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: rid of dislikes, kind of sort of Robinhood gets hacked.

3
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 1: Plus your tech questions answered? What is going on? I'm

4
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 1: Rich Demiro and this is Rich on Tech, the podcast

5
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:25,600
Speaker 1: where I talk about the tech stuff I think you

6
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: should know about.

7
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 2: It's also the place.

8
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 1: Where I answer the questions you send me and yes, yes,

9
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 1: send me a lot of them, keep them coming. I'm

10
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 1: the tech reporter at KTLA Channel five in Los Angeles.

11
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 1: Welcome to the folks listening on Facebook audio rooms.

12
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,160
Speaker 2: That feature was big.

13
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: It's funny with these social media platforms they love to

14
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: their attention span is very short. So with Facebook, for instance,

15
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: they were all about these live audio rooms for like

16
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: a month or two, and you know, whenever I would

17
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,319
Speaker 1: do one of these, it would promote it across the

18
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 1: board to all my followers, and you know, hundreds of

19
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 1: people would log in to listen because Facebook was pushing

20
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 1: it to as many people as possible because they were

21
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,320
Speaker 1: trying to start that feature. Well, now that they don't

22
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 1: care about it as much and they've moved on to

23
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: other things, it's not as popular. You don't see it

24
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: promoted as much. It's just kind of one of those

25
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 1: features that's there. And I'm seeing the same kind of

26
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: thing happen right now on Instagram. And I don't know

27
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: if you've noticed, but they've really really ramped up reels.

28
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: They've ramped up two things in your feed. Number one reels.

29
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: Number two suggested posts. So if you're scrolling through Instagram

30
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: and this happens to me, I'm looking at these posts

31
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: and I'm like, wait a second, I don't follow that person.

32
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: It says, oh, suggested because you follow this person or

33
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: that person, and I don't mind it. But a lot

34
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: of my feed has become suggested posts. So they're definitely

35
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: it's definitely becoming an Instagram that was very different than

36
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: the Instagram many of us signed up for. Also, there's

37
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: a lot of moving stuff. There's just a lot going

38
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: on now.

39
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 2: The reels.

40
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: I'll tell you why so many people are doing reels

41
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: right now is because Facebook is paying bonuses for doing reels.

42
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: So I tell you this because I was invited to

43
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: the program and basically they said, oh, we'll pay a

44
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 1: whole bunch of money if you do some reels, and

45
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,360
Speaker 1: so that is I have not done one, but that's

46
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: The reason why you're seeing so many people doing reels

47
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: right now because they're trying to reach these bonus amounts

48
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: and if they get these bonuses, it could be a

49
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: decent amount of money, so I don't know, maybe a

50
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: couple hundred bucks or something.

51
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 2: So that's why you're.

52
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 1: Seeing so many reels in your Instagram feed at this point.

53
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 1: But we are here to talk tech. We're here to

54
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: talk about the questions that you send me. And as

55
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: you know, I am an open book. I've been talking

56
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 1: about the Tesla on social media that's been going well.

57
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: I've been talking about the Pixel six Pro, which I

58
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: haven't switched to, but I've been using it alongside my

59
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: iPhone for like two weeks now, and I'll tell you

60
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 1: I do love the phone. I mean, they're the Pixel

61
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: six I think is just such an incredible device, except

62
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: for a few things. Number One, the size is just

63
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: I can't Maybe this sounds like a broken record from

64
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: last week's podcast, but it's just such a big phone

65
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 1: that you can never get comfortable using it, Like.

66
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 2: It's just so big.

67
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 1: Maybe if you're used to the size of the iPhone

68
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: thirteen Promax, you'd be fine with this, But I don't

69
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: think if you have that phone that you'd be switching

70
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 1: to this phone. The other thing is the fingerprint sensor

71
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: is just like absolutely one hundred percent like terrible, Like

72
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: I've never like it's it's taking a step back maybe

73
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: five phone generations. I haven't seen a fingerprint sensor this

74
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: bad in many many phones.

75
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 2: Now.

76
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: I do believe in Google, and I think that Google

77
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: is very much not hardware oriented but software oriented.

78
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 2: So they came out and said, yeah.

79
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: Well, the reason why our fingerprint sensor is a little

80
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: slower than the rest is because it's very It's very secure,

81
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: and I think ninety nine point nine percent of people

82
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: would be like, well, let me give up like fifty

83
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: percent of that security for a fingerprint sensor.

84
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 2: That actually works in a reasonable.

85
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: Amount of time. I've gotten to the point where I

86
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: have a fear of unlocking this device. FO fear of

87
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: unlocking it FO you, I because I sit there and

88
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is gonna take so long to unlock.

89
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 1: Let me just go to the iPhone and I'll use

90
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: that because it's instantly unlocked as soon as you look

91
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: at it. Now, there are some rumors that face unlock

92
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 1: will be coming to the iPhone, but I'm not sure

93
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: we'll see I mean, I hope so. And by the way,

94
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 1: I did find a good case. I think a good

95
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:48,239
Speaker 1: case really makes this phone. And the Spegan I actually

96
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 1: picked two that I really like. So Spegan sent over

97
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: all the cases to test out and I tried them

98
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 1: all on the phones, and I found two that I

99
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 1: really like. Remember I like a thin case, and so

100
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: these are thin, but there are also some protection, and

101
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 1: they're also grippy. And the two I like are the

102
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: Pixel six Pro Ultra Hybrid from Spegin and then the

103
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: Pixel six Pro Liquid Air.

104
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 2: Those are my two picks. But there are you know, maybe.

105
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: A half a dozen cases that if you want more protection,

106
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 1: you have to upgrade to one of those. And you know,

107
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 1: maybe you like that you don't mind the bulk. You know,

108
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: some people don't mind the bulk because they don't keep

109
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: their phone in.

110
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:24,359
Speaker 2: Their pocket like I do.

111
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 1: I keep my phone in my pocket, so I want

112
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: a thin case and a smaller phone. But this, this

113
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: Pixel has won me over for many, many reasons, and

114
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 1: one of them is.

115
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 2: That I forgot how useful.

116
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,799
Speaker 1: I forgot how much I call it hunting and pecking

117
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: you have to do on the iPhone to complete stuff.

118
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: So on the iPhone, everything is notifications and apps right,

119
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: nothing is integrated into the fabric of the phone unless

120
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: it's something that Apple wants, Whereas on Android, apps and

121
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: notifications are much more woven into the fabric of the phone,

122
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 1: so when you buy it or when you download an app,

123
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 1: it sort of becomes part of the operating system in

124
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: different ways. One example is that I've just keep seeing

125
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 1: over and over is that when you get a notification

126
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 1: on the pixel, there are action steps you can take

127
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:15,840
Speaker 1: right from that notification. So, for instance, if someone you

128
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: know texts you something I don't know, there's just so

129
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: many little things that you can do directly from the notification.

130
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: And one of the simplest examples is like for Tesla,

131
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: the Tesla app, for example, there's a notification on your

132
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 1: screen that always lets you unlock your car, open the

133
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: front trunk, open the rear trunk, and so it's like

134
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: little things like that where it's really cool. Or if

135
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 1: you get a notification from Google Maps about a place

136
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 1: that it wants you to review, which I know are

137
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: kind of annoying, but it'll say something like not useful

138
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 1: or didn't go there, which you can just in one click,

139
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: say I didn't go there, Versus on the iPhone, you'd

140
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: have to tap into the notification and then tap into

141
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 1: the experience to figure out where to.

142
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 2: Go to do all that stuff.

143
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: So it's just little things. I'm not saying one's better

144
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: than the other. It's just more of the differences that

145
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: I'm pointing out. I still love the iPhone, believe me.

146
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 1: It's a pretty amazing device, and I will say I

147
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 1: think in some cases it's just a better creator device

148
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 1: than the Pixel. I find that I'm more creative when

149
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: I'm holding my iPhone than i am with a Pixel.

150
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: I just feel like the Pixel is more a smartphone

151
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: like it just it kind of anticipates your needs a

152
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: little bit better.

153
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 2: Let's get to the first story of the week. Twitter.

154
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: I don't really talk about Twitter too much because I

155
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: don't feel like a lot of people use it that

156
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 1: are general, everyday people, And that's kind of who I

157
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: imagine listens to this show. But you know, there are

158
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: some people that use Twitter that are just regular people.

159
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: I feel like it's mostly either people kind of in

160
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 1: industry or you know, it's not like my mom.

161
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 2: Or my dad or something like that. You know, like

162
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 2: the average tech person.

163
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 1: So I don't talk about it too much, but you know,

164
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: they did something interesting this week. They opened up what's

165
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 1: called Twitter Blue, and so for three dollars a month,

166
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: you get features that the regular free Twitter users don't get.

167
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: Number one, you get some ad free sites. So when

168
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: you go to like Washington Post, you open an article

169
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 1: from Twitter, La Times, USA Today, The Atlantic Reuter's, a

170
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: couple others A you don't see any ads on those articles.

171
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 2: So I mean, is that worth three bucks a month?

172
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 2: Probably not.

173
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: The funny thing is that you don't get a subscription

174
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 1: to any of these, So it'd be nice if they

175
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: bypass the paywall when you clicked on these things. That's

176
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: not happening, so you still if it's a paywalled article,

177
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 1: you're not going to get to see it for free.

178
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: Let's see top articles. This is my favorite feature so far.

179
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: So this summarizes all of the top articles people are

180
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: sharing in your network over the past twenty four hours.

181
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 2: So that's really really useful.

182
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: But that also used to be free through a website

183
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 1: called Nuzzle, And I'm guessing that did Twitter buy Nuzzle?

184
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: I thought I said that on the radio. I'm guessing.

185
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: Let's see, yep, Twitter bought Nuzzle.

186
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 2: Yep. Okay, so yeah, so that's that's the thing.

187
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,959
Speaker 1: Like that website was free and I used it every

188
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: day and I loved it, and then Twitter bought it

189
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: and they shut it down, and now they're making me

190
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: pay for it. You also can customize your experience with

191
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: exclusive app icons, So if you want to change your

192
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 1: you know, your navigation icons or the way your Twitter

193
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 1: icon looks on your home screen, you can do that.

194
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: I mean, probably not worth three bucks. The undue tweet

195
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 1: is the kind of the big main feature a lot

196
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 1: of people have been talking about, which is fine. It's

197
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: not an edit button per se, but it's just a delay.

198
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 1: So if you have this setup in Gmail like I do,

199
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 1: where it delays my email by twenty seconds, so if

200
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,959
Speaker 1: I think of something or made a mistake, I can

201
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 1: undo it. Same thing now with Twitter. So the other

202
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: thing that's kind of cool, and this is like a

203
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 1: very I don't know, one percent kind of person feature,

204
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: but it turns long Twitter threads into like an easy

205
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: to read experience, which is also really nice. You can

206
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 1: upload longer videos and that's about it. So I subscribe

207
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 1: just to check it out it's fine.

208
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 2: I you don't know.

209
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: If I will pay three dollars a month. They would

210
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 1: have to do a couple things for me to keep

211
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: paying three dollars. Number one, they would have to take

212
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: away the ads.

213
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 2: I cannot deal with the ads on Twitter. They're so annoying.

214
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: They're after like every other tweet, and so three bucks

215
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: a month, one hundred percent. I would be totally down

216
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: with paying that just to get rid of the ads.

217
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 1: And if they threw in the rest of these features,

218
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: that would be pretty cool too. All right, let's get

219
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 1: to the first question of the day. Ron says, how

220
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: can I delete pictures on Facebook Messenger? Ron, what I

221
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 1: would do typically is press and hold. So whenever you

222
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: can't find something to do on your phone, it's not

223
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,680
Speaker 1: very obvious, there's two things you want to look for.

224
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 1: Number One, just press and hold on whatever you're trying

225
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 1: to manipulate. So if you're trying to like delete a picture,

226
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: press and hold it and see if a little menu

227
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: comes up that lets you delete the picture. Indeed, I

228
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: think that's the case here with Facebook Messenger. You can

229
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 1: do that on your iPhone or Android and it should

230
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 1: bring up a delete button that you can.

231
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 2: Get rid of that picture.

232
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: The other thing to look out for is a menu icon.

233
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: So like a menu icon these days, they look like

234
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 1: two things. Number one, three little dots in a row,

235
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: up and down. So just three little dots up and down.

236
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: Click that or tap that rather, and that should bring

237
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 1: up the what we call an overflow menu that you

238
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,199
Speaker 1: know has the other options for whatever you're trying to do.

239
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: And then the other thing is the hamburger menu, and

240
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 1: that often will bring up either a slide a slider

241
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 1: menu or I'm saying hamburger and slider in one one sentence.

242
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: It's pretty funny, no pun intended, but that's generally what

243
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: you do. But in in general with the phones, especially

244
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: the way the iPhone was designed, you know, they made

245
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 1: everything very simple. So press and hold and typically that

246
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: should bring up what you need to do. Oh also

247
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: on Twitter, let's get back to Twitter for just a moment.

248
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:54,479
Speaker 1: There's a new feature on someone's profile if you're on iOS.

249
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,679
Speaker 1: So if you're on iOS and you're using Twitter, it's uh,

250
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 1: there's a new little search button on one's profile, and

251
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 1: so just go to their profile, you know, just tap

252
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 1: on their name and go to their profile, which shows

253
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: like their bio and how many tweets they've done, and

254
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: how many people are following. In the upper right hand corner,

255
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: you'll now see a little search icon like a magnifying glass,

256
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: and you tap that and then you can type in

257
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 1: a keyword. So if you want to see all the

258
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 1: times in my Twitter world that I've ever mentioned the

259
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,199
Speaker 1: word pixel, you can just search for the word pixel.

260
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: If you want to see all the times I've ever

261
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: mentioned I don't know, chuck E cheese. That'd be a

262
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 1: tough one to type in, but I probably spelled it wrong,

263
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,319
Speaker 1: but you know, you can type in Chuck E cheese.

264
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 1: So this is really handy. It's it's always a It's

265
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: a feature that's always been around on Twitter. It's just

266
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: been way more complicated to use because you'd have to

267
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 1: go and do an advanced search to get this figured out.

268
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,079
Speaker 1: So I think that by putting this front and center

269
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 1: on someone's profile, it does make things a lot easier

270
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 1: because if you saw me say something on TV and

271
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, I want to get more information about that,

272
00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 1: you can just go to my profile, type in a

273
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: keyword from whatever story I did, and there you can

274
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 1: find the tweet that is associated with that story, and

275
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: not just a tweet, but a lot of times in

276
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: my course of testing stuff out, I will often tweet

277
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 1: as I go. So I'll be tweeting like little features

278
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,679
Speaker 1: and little things that I discover, and then I'll put

279
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 1: some of those or all of those into my main

280
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 1: review on TV, and so you can see kind of

281
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 1: my thoughts along the way with the different things that

282
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: I talk about and review and go to. So simple,

283
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 1: simple check for the new search icon on the Twitter

284
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 1: profile page of your favorite tweeter.

285
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 2: All right, Stace.

286
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's Stace or stay C because

287
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 1: it's STACEE, so that could be Stace, could be Stace.

288
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 1: I have a problem getting rid of tech stuff. I

289
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 1: have a ton of old memory two hundred chips whoo,

290
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 1: as well as cables, motherboards.

291
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 2: Where do I go?

292
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: This is a major recycling problem. I'm trying to be sustainable.

293
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: I know it's toxic. People need to know that there's

294
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 1: a threat to the environment inside much. People need to know.

295
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,439
Speaker 1: Every city is different, but anyone who cares should have

296
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:03,839
Speaker 1: the option.

297
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 2: You got one.

298
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: Come on, dude, I watch you every day. This is

299
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: major important. Did I miss one of your reports I

300
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: watch you every day. Thanks Stace or Stacy. Well, Stacy

301
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 1: or Stace, you did miss one of my reports, because

302
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 1: I've talked about this several several times in recent memory.

303
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: I've done two major stories on gadget recycling. The first

304
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 1: was with a We visited a gadget recycling I don't know.

305
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: It's like a waste place, just locally in the La

306
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 1: Valley and or San Fernando Valley, I guess I should say.

307
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: And it's a place where you could The coolest part

308
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: about it was that they had this big giant machine

309
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: that could chop up your hard drive. So if you

310
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: have a hard drive, it would just grind it to

311
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 1: like a million little pieces, and then they would of

312
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 1: course take out the important precious metals and then send

313
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: the rest on their way for recycling. But that was

314
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: number one, so you can easily go there and bring

315
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: all your stuff. I think it was called US.

316
00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 3: Waste Fernando Valley or was it Glendale. Oh gosh, I

317
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 3: can't remember where it was. It might I can't remember.

318
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 3: I'll have to look this up, but I'll put it

319
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 3: in the show notes.

320
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: But it was a nice little place where they you know,

321
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: they just had a whole bunch of stuff that people

322
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 1: bring there to recycle, so you can bring that or

323
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: there's another website that we did a story with called

324
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: Gizmo Gizmo Go, and they will pay you for stuff

325
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 1: that they can pay you for, but this stuff doesn't

326
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: sound like anything they would pay for because that's mostly

327
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 1: like phones and old laptops and stuff. This sounds like more.

328
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: You just need it recycled. And with that in mind,

329
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 1: you could just send it to them in a big box.

330
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 1: Or better yet, since you're local and they are they're

331
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 1: in Chino Hills, you could just take the box of

332
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 1: your stuff.

333
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 2: To them and they will recycle.

334
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 1: Now I would contact them first through their website before

335
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 1: you just bring something over there. But they have a

336
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 1: huge business of recycling this stuff, and yes, they keep

337
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: it out of landfills, they keep it from ruining the environment,

338
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: and it's a pretty big operation. And there are many

339
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 1: any companies that will do this, and there's also many

340
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: what do they call green recycling drives on the weekends.

341
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: A lot of times are fundraisers for schools where you

342
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 1: bring all this stuff and they'll take it for free.

343
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: But the company that's taking it is actually making money

344
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: off of this stuff, because what they do is they

345
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: reclaim the precious metals from this stuff. So they will

346
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: pay you for some of these things. Maybe the motherboards

347
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 1: might have some value, the memory chips, I'm not sure,

348
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: the cable's probably not, but they might pay you, you know,

349
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 1: pay the organizations that's arranging this fundraiser drive just a

350
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: little bit of money.

351
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 2: But that's the way I would do it.

352
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: Or they'll take it off your hands and then share

353
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: a little bit of the profit with the fundraising place,

354
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 1: but with the nonprofit I should say.

355
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 2: So that's what you do.

356
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,800
Speaker 1: But look up those two things, Stace, Look up recycling

357
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: old gadgets KTLA.

358
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 2: Did I ever tell you how to search?

359
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 3: You?

360
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 2: Just look?

361
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: So I've got I've got two. There we go, two stories. Okay,

362
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 1: here's the first story. Got a new gadget over the holidays.

363
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,920
Speaker 1: Here's how to dispose? Okay, yeah, this was the place

364
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: I went to. We went to a place called e

365
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: Waste US Electronics Recycling in North Hollywood. And so they'll

366
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: take it. And here's the thing. I mean, you know,

367
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: I ever since I did this story on recycling old gadgets,

368
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 1: I have never thrown out a battery ever again, because

369
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,399
Speaker 1: I realized in that story how bad they are for

370
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 1: the environment when you just toss them in the trash.

371
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: And so I now keep a mason jar and every

372
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: battery that I use in my house that's you know,

373
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 1: triple A or whatever kind of thing, I will throw

374
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 1: in to there and then I will go and recycle those.

375
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 2: So good question and get that stuff recycled.

376
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:51,120
Speaker 1: YouTube is going to stop showing dislikes.

377
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 2: This is something that not a lot of people like.

378
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 1: But boom, boom, I need a bad joke sound for

379
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: my soundboard here. So YouTube says they did an experiment

380
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 1: and they got rid of the dislike button, or they

381
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,919
Speaker 1: changed it so that you could still have the dislike button,

382
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 1: but the total number of dislikes under a video was

383
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 1: not displayed, and lo and behold, they found that it

384
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 1: actually discourages what they call group dislikes or this group

385
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 1: dislike mentality. So they've noticed when a lot of people

386
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 1: start disliking a video, people sort of start piling on

387
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 1: more dislikes, even though they just do it just to

388
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 1: be funny or something. So they said, you know what,

389
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 1: that's not very good for our creator viewer relationships. And

390
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: so we're gonna still let you thumbs down a video,

391
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,359
Speaker 1: and we're gonna show the creators the total number of

392
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 1: those thumbs down, but we're no longer gonna make it

393
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 1: a game where you can see how many thumbs downs

394
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 1: this video has compared to how many thumbs up thumbs.

395
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,719
Speaker 2: Up they'll still display, So that's basically it.

396
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:54,639
Speaker 1: You know, this is of course getting met with a

397
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: lot of mixed reactions online. Some people say, well, that's

398
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: how I can tell if a video is worthless, which

399
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,159
Speaker 1: I would agree with, because if you had noticed that

400
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:05,880
Speaker 1: a video has a lot of thumbs down, you might

401
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,199
Speaker 1: be like, I'm not gonna watch this. People were disappointed

402
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: with it, but I guess you'll just have to go

403
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 1: by viewcount, and that's you know, it's not the best,

404
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: So it's going away, you know, rolling out, so it's

405
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 1: not like immediately gone. But if you're a creator, you'll

406
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 1: still be able to see these numbers on the back end.

407
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:25,359
Speaker 1: But if you're a viewer, you'll still be able to

408
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 1: dislike stuff, you just won't be able to see the

409
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,239
Speaker 1: total number of dislikes. And on the flip side, you

410
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 1: can still use that dislike button to craft your YouTube experience.

411
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 2: So the stuff they show you for recommendations.

412
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 1: When you thumbs up and when you thumbs down, it

413
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: will still all go into that recommendation engine that's personalized

414
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 1: just for you. Joe says, Hey, Rich, I'm a SOCW

415
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: guy born and raised in a long time KTLA five viewer.

416
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: My family relocated to the Kansas City area. I've been

417
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 1: watching Foxford News and today was the first time I

418
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 1: saw your tech Smart segment since we relocated. I'm super

419
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,400
Speaker 1: stoked to know you're on my new local channel. Thanks

420
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: for keeping us tech smart. Keep up the great work,

421
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:14,199
Speaker 1: Joe Ka. Well, Joe, thank you. That's awesome that you

422
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 1: saw me there. So it's kind of funny. I never

423
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 1: tell people. I don't make a big deal that we

424
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,880
Speaker 1: are on and a whole bunch of different markets because

425
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,919
Speaker 1: it's just not really that important to the stories that

426
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,120
Speaker 1: I tell. You know, like, I'm just doing my segment,

427
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 1: and if you happen to see me in a different city,

428
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,360
Speaker 1: that's awesome. Now I get a lot of people that say, Rich,

429
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 1: I saw you in you know, Hawaii or this or that,

430
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 1: and so I love it. I mean it's great, and

431
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 1: so the dirty little it's not a dirty secret. But

432
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 1: the little secret is that, yes, I originate out of KTLA,

433
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: and our segment does go out to a whole bunch

434
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 1: of other stations. And so with the company that we're

435
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: owned by, Next Star, they have like two hundred stations,

436
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: you know, they all have the potential of running it.

437
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 2: Do all of them run it every day? No, but

438
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 2: a lot of them do.

439
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 1: And so it's funny because I didn't know unbeknownst to me,

440
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 1: but these there are tracking systems that track the number

441
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 1: of times that your story is shown in different places,

442
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: and PR people use these to see when you do

443
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 1: a story that mentions them or one of their you know,

444
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: whether it's a product, whether it's good or bad. They

445
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 1: want to know, and so they want to see the

446
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 1: clip to see exactly what she said. And I was

447
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: fascinated because someone that I know that does PR actually

448
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 1: sent me a copy of this because they said, Rich,

449
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 1: we had no idea that your segment airs in so

450
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 1: many different places, and said, yeah, I don't really tell

451
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 1: a lot of people about that, but it does. And

452
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,440
Speaker 1: so they ended up I said, well, send me a list,

453
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 1: let me.

454
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 2: See where it airs. And so let me just go

455
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 2: through some of the places so.

Speaker 2: So pretty cool.

463
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 1: And that's just one story, and that's just happens to

464
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 1: be in, you know, in a small period of time.

465
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 1: But it's kind of neat to know that you're airing now.

466
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,160
Speaker 1: We used to do a round robin with a lot

467
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 1: of these stations, so I used to know specifically where

468
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 1: I did live shots for these places.

469
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 2: But we've changed it up just a little bit.

470
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 1: So that's that's that's kind of a system that we're

471
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 1: not We're basically sending out the story where stations can

472
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 1: air it whenever they want, and so it's a little

473
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 1: bit different these days, but the reality is they're still

474
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,880
Speaker 1: airing it and it's still fun and it's great when

475
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: you see me in a different place.

476
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 2: And especially when.

477
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: I show up in place like Hawaii and like Las Vegas,

478
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 1: I'm like, can I go there?

479
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,400
Speaker 2: Like that? Is that an acceptable business expense.

480
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,359
Speaker 1: To go visit these places that I air in, because

481
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,679
Speaker 1: I've got to see what they look like, right Like,

482
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 1: I need another look at Honolulu just to make sure

483
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 1: that you know this is what it looks like. Anyway,

484
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: thanks for finding me there, and Joe, tell your friends

485
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,639
Speaker 1: in Kansas City that you watch and tell them to

486
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 1: get tech smart. Robin Hood was hacked, and I don't

487
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: want to spend too much time on this because it's

488
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 1: one of these stories you're like, blah blah blah, Yeah, yeah, yeah,

489
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,640
Speaker 1: isn't everything hacked? Well, it's kind of scary when this happens.

490
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 1: And so on November three, Robin Hood said someone got

491
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 1: access to their to personal information on a whole bunch

492
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 1: of people. Now they said, no soci security numbers, no

493
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 1: bank account numbers, no debit card numbers were exposed and

494
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 1: nobody's nobody lost money as a result of this like,

495
00:23:58,280 --> 00:23:59,080
Speaker 1: not directly at.

496
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:00,400
Speaker 2: Least, so that's that's good.

497
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: But the odd thing is that this was a pretty big,

498
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:08,439
Speaker 1: big hack. This was a socially engineered hack, and social

499
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 1: engineering means that they didn't really have to guess a

500
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 1: password or break into the system. They basically tricked someone

501
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 1: into giving them access. They don't say how they did that,

502
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 1: but that's kind of scary. So h A customer said,

503
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 1: the unauthorized party socially engineered a customer support employee by

504
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 1: phone and obtained access to certain customer support systems. So

505
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: what I'm guessing happened here is that this was not

506
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 1: a customer who called in and said, hey, can you

507
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 1: give me the password to your back end systems? This

508
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,199
Speaker 1: person probably discovered the back end systems or how to

509
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: get access to those, or how to how to see

510
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: where they live on a server, and then called an

511
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,680
Speaker 1: employee by phone and said, hey, Jim, it's a it's

512
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: Robin over Robin, it's uh, it's it's Tanya over here

513
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 1: in in accounts department. Can you give me that password

514
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: real quick? Or what's the what's the pin code to

515
00:24:58,080 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: get in? I got to do some work on the

516
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: back end real quick. And the person was probably taken

517
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,400
Speaker 1: off guard and just gave the information over. Now I'm

518
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,120
Speaker 1: making that up, I don't know, but that's what I'm saying.

519
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 1: That's kind of the idea of a social engineering attack,

520
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 1: is that you kind of trick someone into handing over

521
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 1: some information that you need that helps you hack a system.

522
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 2: That's scary.

523
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 1: And I saw some screenshots I think they were obtained

524
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 1: by motherboard of these systems, and it was you know,

525
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: some behind the scenes stuff. So anyway, what did they get.

526
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 1: They got full email addresses for five million people, full

527
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 1: names for two million people, and then for about three

528
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: hundred people they got names, dates of birth, zip code,

529
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: and ten people had even more information revealed. So what

530
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 1: I think happened here is that for the you know,

531
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 1: the five million and the two million, it was really easy.

532
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 1: They just ran some sort of script that extracted like

533
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 1: simple stuff. But then to get the like, the real information,

534
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 1: they probably had to work a little bit harder, which

535
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 1: is why they were only able to get three hundred

536
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: and you know, twenty people's information on a deeper level.

537
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: So anyway, what I would recommend is number one, it's

538
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: the same security cautions every single podcast.

539
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:04,120
Speaker 2: Number one.

540
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 1: Use a unique, separate password for every website that you visit,

541
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,679
Speaker 1: that you create a login for. Do not reuse passwords.

542
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: Do not use variations of passwords. Do not use the

543
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: same password for two websites. Do not keep a list

544
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: of those passwords.

545
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 2: You know, I don't know.

546
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 1: Well, you can keep a list somewhere, but as long

547
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,159
Speaker 1: as it's safe. But I would recommend using a password manager.

548
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 1: And yes I am guilty of this too. When you're

549
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:34,919
Speaker 1: signing up for a website, you want it to be

550
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 1: the fastest possible experience. Ever, take the extra one minute

551
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:44,200
Speaker 1: to go into your password manager, generate a password, save

552
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,880
Speaker 1: the log in, and then copy and paste it into

553
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 1: this new website. I know it's especially tricky on your

554
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: smartphone to do this unless you're using you know, one

555
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 1: of the built in kind of you know, like Apple's

556
00:26:56,040 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: iCloud password manager or something that's the android, the smart

557
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,120
Speaker 1: lock or whatever they call it an android.

558
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 2: But if you're using sort of a.

559
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 1: Third party one, which you know, I would probably recommend

560
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 1: for most people, like a dash lane, or like a bitwarden,

561
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,959
Speaker 1: or a last pass or a one password. I mean,

562
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 1: there's so many to choose from. Just pick one that

563
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 1: you like, that you think is fair. Bitwarden is totally

564
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 1: free for the regular user, so maybe that's where you start.

565
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 1: But just use these things and then set up two

566
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: factor authentication. I went in to my Robinhood account and

567
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,959
Speaker 1: I noticed that I did not have two factor authentication

568
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,360
Speaker 1: turned on. And so as soon as I saw this hack,

569
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 1: I said, Okay, let me go turn that on. So

570
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 1: I've turned that on and now that's just one more

571
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 1: one more barrier between you and someone that's trying to

572
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:44,679
Speaker 1: get into your account. Is it going to stop them

573
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 1: every single time? Absolutely not. If you listen to the

574
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 1: last podcast, they talked about how they're getting around. They're

575
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 1: social engineering the two factor authentication codes, and so you

576
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,199
Speaker 1: just have to do the best you can do to

577
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 1: keep yourself protected. And that's all you can do. All right,

578
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 1: Let's get to the next question of the show. Ellie says,

579
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,199
Speaker 1: good morning, peace to you and your lovely family.

580
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 2: Sir. I know you could help me. I work.

581
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 1: Let's see, it looks like you work at a church,

582
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,959
Speaker 1: two different churches, and I need to update past Google

583
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 1: files that I have on Google slides and Google sheets,

584
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,639
Speaker 1: but I can't because of space. So this Saturday I

585
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: followed the link on my Gmail account. Bottom line, I

586
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,400
Speaker 1: got charged for a year's charge of nineteen ninety nine,

587
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: but through Apple. I'm confused because my Gmail and Google

588
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 1: apps are still saying I'm out of space. I'm so confused.

589
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 1: I'm fifty. I can't afford to be confused. Can you

590
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 1: please help me explain what I did wrong and what

591
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: are the norms I do work? But you can call me.

592
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 2: Call me.

593
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,479
Speaker 1: I think I added my credit card to my iPhone wallet.

594
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 1: I want I don't want my credit cards on anything

595
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 1: on the iPhone. Ellia, Okay, so things just breaking this down.

596
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 1: Number one, I don't think that this is a Google

597
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 1: storage issue with Google slides and Google sheets. Editing a

598
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 1: Google slide or a Google sheet unless these things are

599
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 1: dozens and dozens of gigabytes big, there's no way that

600
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 1: you're out of space and not able to manipulate those

601
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 1: Google slides and Google sheets. So that's number one. I

602
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 1: think it sounds like maybe you are out of space

603
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: on your on your iPhone and then the year's charge

604
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 1: of nineteen ninety nine. I'm not even sure where that

605
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 1: comes from, because like on Google, for instance, if we

606
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: go to storage, the plans. I'm trying to see if

607
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 1: I can downgrade. Can they don't even give me the

608
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 1: option to downgrade my storage. Wow, I don't even know

609
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 1: if they have a plan. That's twenty dollars for the year.

610
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 1: So anyway, bottom line, I think number one do this.

611
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 2: So go to.

612
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 1: Go to one dot Google dot com. Okay, So once

613
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 1: you're there, this will help you manage your Google Drive plan.

614
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 1: So I want you to go there. On the left

615
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,280
Speaker 1: hand side, it says storage. I want you to see

616
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 1: how much storage you're using. So, for instance, I have

617
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 1: five terabytes of storage. It's telling me I'm using two

618
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 1: point one of my five terabytes. And breaking it down further,

619
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 1: I've got one hundred and twenty five gigs in Google Drive,

620
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 1: thirty three gigs in Gmail, which is an outrageous amount

621
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 1: that needs to be lessened. Then I have two terabytes

622
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 1: in Google Photos and three ge a third of a

623
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 1: gigabyte in my recorder app. So if you scroll down

624
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 1: a little bit, it says free up account storage, and

625
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: now you can go through and free up some of

626
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 1: the account storage that you have. And what I would

627
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 1: do especially is empty the trash where it says deleted

628
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 1: files in your Google drive. I would empty that trash.

629
00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 1: Now that will give you enough storage to work through

630
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,040
Speaker 1: these Google slides and Google sheets. Now you have to

631
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 1: figure out where this twenty dollars went. So I think

632
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 1: it went to iCloud storage, if I had to guess,

633
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 1: But I'm not even sure they have a twenty dollars

634
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: yearly plan.

635
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 2: I'm not really sure.

636
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 1: But you can go into your subscriptions on the iPhone

637
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 1: and to get there, just go into your settings and

638
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 1: then your iCloud, which is up at the top, and

639
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 1: then it should say subscriptions and see if you have

640
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 1: any active subscriptions, and if you need to, you can

641
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 1: cancel those. But it sounds like you've got a couple

642
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 1: of things going on here, and I know you're saying

643
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 1: you're confused, and I totally understand this because cloud storage

644
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: is one of these things where it is the trickiest

645
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: thing that I deal with myself, personally, other people, family members,

646
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 1: because think about it. You've got your phone, which has

647
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 1: a number a certain number of gigabytes. Then you've got

648
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 1: cloud storage, which has a certain number of gigabytes. But

649
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 1: then you have to work to maintain both of those

650
00:31:56,040 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 1: storage mediums, so that let's say you have an iphe

651
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 1: that has a sixty four gigabyte limit, but then your

652
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 1: Google Drive or your iCloud has you know, two fifty six,

653
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 1: and you're like, well, I still have storage. I don't understand,

654
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 1: well that storage is living in the cloud and anything

655
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: that's on your phone is still taking up kind of

656
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 1: both those places depending on how you have it set up.

657
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 1: And so that's why you kind of have to go

658
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 1: to the source on these things. I think iCloud is

659
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 1: really really tricky with storage because they don't really give you,

660
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 1: from what I can tell, a very good way of

661
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: managing it. But you know, you just have to go

662
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 1: through and just kind of go through and see what's

663
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: taking up the storage on your phone and then in

664
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 1: your in your cloud drives, and then that way you

665
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 1: can kind of organize things and get them to a

666
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 1: place where you're not overpaying. Right now, I'm overpaying every

667
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 1: single month, even though it's you know whatever, it is,

668
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 1: three bucks a month, But there's no reason for me

669
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: to pay that.

670
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 2: I'm paying twenty five.

671
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 1: Dollars for Google Cloud storage for five terabytes. There's no

672
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 1: reason why I need another two hundred on my iPhone.

673
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 1: But somehow, I do because if I want to back

674
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 1: up my iPhone, I need that storage across for the

675
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 1: two iPhones in my house. So it's very tricky, and

676
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 1: I totally understand that you're having trouble with it, and

677
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 1: I don't think that you are. You know, you're lesser

678
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 1: in any way because of this Elia, because believe me,

679
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 1: it is something that is I think. I don't want

680
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 1: to say they make it confusing, but it's confusing, and

681
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 1: I get it. Twenty bucks a year not that much.

682
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 1: But the reality is, why should we have to pay

683
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 1: for anything if we don't need it, or if it's extra,

684
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 1: or if it's duplicated. So good question, and hopefully you

685
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 1: get that figured out.

686
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 2: Let's see here this is a iCloud for Windows.

687
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: According to nine to five Mac, the app has been

688
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 1: updated with a password generator and then support for two

689
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 1: formats from the iPhone pro raw and pro res. So

690
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:53,959
Speaker 1: previously you could use the iCloud utility on your PC

691
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 1: to copy and paste passwords that you created on your iPhone.

692
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 1: Well now you can actually use it to generate passwords,

693
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 1: and so that's kind of cool. I I mean, I

694
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,720
Speaker 1: guess this is a step towards using iCloud password manager

695
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,919
Speaker 1: or whatever they call it on the iPhone and also

696
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 1: with a Windows computer. But personally, if I was doing that,

697
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 1: I would go with a third party, non platforms specific

698
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 1: app like I said earlier, Bitwarden, or a dash lane

699
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,320
Speaker 1: or a last pass these also, these all work nicely

700
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 1: on both platforms. Now, like I said, nine to five,

701
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,719
Speaker 1: Mac is reporting that the iCloud utility for Windows is

702
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:35,759
Speaker 1: getting better at helping.

703
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,520
Speaker 2: You use this feature on Windows.

704
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: But again with Apple stuff, almost everything besides their own

705
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 1: ecosystem is sort of an afterthought. And so if you

706
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,839
Speaker 1: look at storing your your photos in iCloud, which is great.

707
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: iCloud is nice. It's your photos are on your phone,

708
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,440
Speaker 1: but it's only good if you use an iPhone only.

709
00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 1: So that's why I use Google Photos because I like

710
00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 1: to see my photos on any device that I log into,

711
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 1: and the same goes for Amazon Photos. You can use

712
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 1: that on iPhone, you can use it on Apple, you

713
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,919
Speaker 1: can use it on your certain TVs, just depends which one.

714
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: But you know, Apple stuff is mostly geared towards Apple users,

715
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,319
Speaker 1: and yes they throw your bone every once in a

716
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 1: while like this, but it's not ideal and Anyway, what

717
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: I'm saying is it's nice that if you started using

718
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 1: the iCloud password system on your iPhone and you were

719
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 1: kind of frustrated with a computer system on your Windows computer,

720
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: it does help that now this is available, so update

721
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 1: that app and now you can generate passwords there, all right,

722
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:44,440
Speaker 1: Derek writes in Rich do you recommend doing a complete

723
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: factory reset of a Sony TV before giving it away

724
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 1: to a friend? Or is it okay to just sign

725
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 1: out of the Google account, delete my installed apps, and

726
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 1: do a system data reset instead. Have a tremendous day, Derek. Derek,

727
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 1: if you listen to this show at all, you know

728
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 1: what I'm gonna say. You do the complete factory reset.

729
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,799
Speaker 1: And the reason I would do that is because why

730
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 1: do you want things lingering any of your personal information?

731
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 1: If you miss something, it can linger now the way

732
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,800
Speaker 1: that these TVs are set up, I would I would

733
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 1: venture to say that when you sign out of the

734
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,600
Speaker 1: Google account, it would kind of bring it back to

735
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: a place where the next person can use it. But

736
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:24,799
Speaker 1: you just don't know, and why are you gonna take

737
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,720
Speaker 1: that chance? And also, over the years of having this TV,

738
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 1: you might have changed some settings you might have changed

739
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: the way the audio format works, or the output or

740
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:38,759
Speaker 1: the picture or the screen like you might have adjusted

741
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 1: contrast and different color portions or the color What am

742
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 1: I trying to say, you know, like the color sliders right.

743
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,560
Speaker 1: You might have adjusted the output, you might have renamed

744
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 1: the HDMI inputs.

745
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,800
Speaker 2: Whatever you did, it's nice.

746
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,920
Speaker 1: That you're giving this sony TV away to a friend,

747
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,719
Speaker 1: but don't burden them with all of your old settings.

748
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 1: So go ahead, do a complete factory reset, and that

749
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:04,920
Speaker 1: way you know your WiFi is disconnected from it. But

750
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 1: before you do that, I would just check to see

751
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 1: if there's a software update for this TV and that

752
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,279
Speaker 1: might save your friends some hassles or headaches when they

753
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,839
Speaker 1: go to set it up again, because it'll you know,

754
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 1: it just makes the.

755
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 2: Process a little bit smoother.

756
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 1: But yes, always, when you're giving a gadget away to anyone,

757
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 1: complete factory reset is the best way to do it.

758
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 1: Make sure that everything is gone and it's back to

759
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 1: that screen that says hello or welcome or whatever it is.

760
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 1: In fact, this is a major issue for myself, who

761
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,640
Speaker 1: is constantly going through gadgets with you know, these these

762
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,239
Speaker 1: test gadgets that I get you know before I send

763
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 1: them back A lot of times, you know, it's it's

764
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: kind of a process to get these things back into

765
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 1: like you know, either the box or either the factory

766
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 1: you know reset, and I have to sit there and

767
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:51,880
Speaker 1: like it takes me on a Saturday, like, you know,

768
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,319
Speaker 1: especially if it's an older gadget that I haven't used

769
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:55,560
Speaker 1: in a while, I have to plug it in.

770
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:56,440
Speaker 2: I've got to charge it.

771
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 1: I've got to make sure, you know, if it's like

772
00:37:58,239 --> 00:37:59,800
Speaker 1: a streaming stick, I got to connect it to the

773
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 1: t make sure that I can you know, you know,

774
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 1: get the HDMI connected and like make sure I can go.

775
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a process sometimes, so I get it.

776
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 1: But in the end, you always want to protect your

777
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: personal privacy and so or your personal data and privacy.

778
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 1: So Derek definitely definitely do the complete factory reset. That's

779
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 1: gonna be the best way to do it, all right.

780
00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:27,080
Speaker 1: So this is a really cool feature and something that

781
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:31,320
Speaker 1: I'm surprised nobody else has done. But on Prime Video.

782
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 1: According to Amazon, they now have a new clip sharing feature.

783
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:40,279
Speaker 1: And this is very simple. If you see something that

784
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 1: you like in a show, like a funny joke they made,

785
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:48,439
Speaker 1: or a funny just anything, anything that you like, you

786
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 1: can make a thirty second clip of that and share

787
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:53,839
Speaker 1: it out to social media. And this can be done

788
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,359
Speaker 1: right from your phone. And this is a Prime Video

789
00:38:56,600 --> 00:39:00,040
Speaker 1: exclusive only on iOS right now, and they call it.

790
00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 2: Let's see does it have a name.

791
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:06,239
Speaker 1: With x ray technology, Prime Video customers can now share

792
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:10,480
Speaker 1: their favorite clips from select Amazon original series with friends

793
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 1: and family on social media or via direct message. So

794
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 1: what I'm guessing this does, because I've not tested this myself,

795
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 1: I'm guessing I'm trying to figure out if this actually

796
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 1: gives you like the video. I think it does just

797
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,000
Speaker 1: kind of fascinating to me. Like, so they don't mind

798
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 1: if it's a thirty second I guess it's thirty second clip.

799
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:35,320
Speaker 2: I mean if it gets the name or this show's.

800
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 1: Name out there, then why not, right? And So it's

801
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 1: funny because I did this the other day with my sister.

802
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: I was watching a show and they made a joke

803
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: about vegans and my sister's vegan, and so I just

804
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,280
Speaker 1: recorded my TV screen. It was just, you know, fifteen

805
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 1: second joke and I sent it to her and this

806
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,399
Speaker 1: is exactly what I did. So now I think people

807
00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:58,320
Speaker 1: are still going to do that because it's just easier.

808
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 1: But this is kind of nice that for social media purposes.

809
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,880
Speaker 1: You know, I probably wouldn't share something that I recorded

810
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 1: off the screen.

811
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 2: On social media.

812
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:09,360
Speaker 1: Maybe I would, I'm not really sure, but you know,

813
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,400
Speaker 1: or if there's like an award show, you can clip it.

814
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 1: But this is thirty seconds, and so all you have

815
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:15,919
Speaker 1: to do once you're on the show, you.

816
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 2: Just hit pause, you hit share a clip.

817
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:20,160
Speaker 1: It'll make a thirty second clip of what you just watched,

818
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: and you can fine tune it so you can say,

819
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 1: you know, I want a couple seconds before, a couple

820
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: seconds after, but it's only thirty seconds that you get

821
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 1: so and then it looks like it puts a watermark

822
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 1: of both Prime Video and the name of the show

823
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,719
Speaker 1: on the video clip. And then once you're ready to share,

824
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 1: just hit share and you can upload it. Oh so yeah,

825
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:39,840
Speaker 1: it's like a it's a full video. You can upload

826
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 1: it to Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, I Message, WhatsApp and more. Now,

827
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 1: this only works for a couple of shows right now.

828
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:48,840
Speaker 1: The Boys, which I haven't seen, The Wild which I

829
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,879
Speaker 1: haven't seen, Invincible, which I haven't seen. In Fairfax. With

830
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: more original Amazon movies and series to follow. So I

831
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:59,880
Speaker 1: think this is one hundred percent brilliant thinking outside the

832
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:04,359
Speaker 1: by Amazon, and I think that Netflix should steal this

833
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:08,320
Speaker 1: feature immediately because or this should become a standard feature

834
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:12,879
Speaker 1: of any of any streaming service, because there's so many

835
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 1: little shareable moments that are funny or interesting or you

836
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:18,840
Speaker 1: want to say for later or share with your friends,

837
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,800
Speaker 1: that this is just a no no brainer way to

838
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 1: let people do this in a way that does not infringe.

839
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:29,319
Speaker 3: On copyright or you know whatever, whatever whatever it is.

840
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 2: That was that was weird. I'm like, ah, copy, I

841
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:35,120
Speaker 2: don't know.

842
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:39,240
Speaker 1: Dan says, hello, Rich, is there a device or app

843
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,799
Speaker 1: that can translate foreign language TV shows or films in

844
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 1: that can plug into my TV or install my phone?

845
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 1: My wife is watching a Turkish show and he says

846
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:51,280
Speaker 1: the name which I can't pronounce, and not all shows

847
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 1: episodes have English subtitles in YouTube. Thank you for being

848
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 1: trying to be a hero for my wife. Thank you, Dan, Dan.

849
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:01,680
Speaker 1: I would recommend two things. Now, you sent this from

850
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,759
Speaker 1: your iPhone, so I would say, on the iPhone, just

851
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 1: use the translate app. So there's a built in translate

852
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 1: app now on iPhone you can try that, and it's

853
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: not gonna install on your TV. But what your wife

854
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 1: would do is just kind of prop up her phone

855
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 1: underneath the show and it can listen to what's happening

856
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 1: on TV and translate that in real time. Now, I

857
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:29,520
Speaker 1: haven't had enough experience with the app on the translate

858
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 1: app on the iPhone to actually know if it does

859
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 1: exactly what I'm talking about, but I think on if

860
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:39,760
Speaker 1: you want, you can also try downloading Google's translate app,

861
00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 1: and that is available for the iPhone and try the

862
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:42,600
Speaker 1: same thing.

863
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 2: Just leave it open. You know, there's like a mic

864
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:45,839
Speaker 2: button you can leave it open.

865
00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 3: Now.

866
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 1: I don't know how long these apps are going to

867
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:52,359
Speaker 1: let you translate for free, but that is, you know,

868
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 1: that's the question here. But that's one way of trying

869
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:56,600
Speaker 1: to do it. And maybe if she can just get

870
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:58,680
Speaker 1: some of the show or you know whatever, that will work.

871
00:42:58,880 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 2: Now.

872
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,439
Speaker 1: The other thing is there's a feature on Android called

873
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:06,040
Speaker 1: live caption and it actually works in like several languages now,

874
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 1: and that is another option, but you'd have to go.

875
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:12,319
Speaker 1: I think it's just available on the Pixel six or

876
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:15,520
Speaker 1: the or the pixel lineup, I should say, but I'm

877
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,319
Speaker 1: not really sure. So that's another option. But that's a,

878
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,520
Speaker 1: that's a pretty amazing option. Oh wait, I just thought

879
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:25,719
Speaker 1: of another option. On Chrome. There is an option, oh

880
00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 1: but I think it's for English only, But there is

881
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 1: a There is an option under Advanced and Accessibility. Yeah,

882
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 1: it's called live caption. And if you go into Chrome

883
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:42,360
Speaker 1: Options Accessibility and then live Caption, turn that on. This

884
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 1: is pretty powerful and it's pretty amazing. It will live

885
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,480
Speaker 1: caption anything any video that is playing on your computer.

886
00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:52,919
Speaker 1: And yes, it would work with YouTube videos, but it's

887
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 1: only for English, so it would not work in this

888
00:43:56,400 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 1: in this setting for a Turkish.

889
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:05,280
Speaker 2: Let's say, you know they oh gosh, yeah Turkish.

890
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:08,440
Speaker 1: So I would say, Now, the funny thing is Google

891
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 1: came out with this feature on the Android side of things,

892
00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:15,839
Speaker 1: that you know, on the pixel that does support more

893
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 1: languages with that live caption, So I can only I

894
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:21,759
Speaker 1: can only imagine that it's just a matter of time

895
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,479
Speaker 1: before this makes its way into more places. The live

896
00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:27,279
Speaker 1: caption feature was on Androids for a long time before

897
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 1: it came to Chrome, so I think that it's probably

898
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 1: I would say, another couple months, maybe a year before

899
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:36,440
Speaker 1: this makes it fully to Chrome, where anything you watch

900
00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 1: can be translated into any language that you need, so

901
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:44,360
Speaker 1: good question there, and hopefully you are a hero to

902
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 1: your wife no matter what. All right, best and more

903
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:51,720
Speaker 1: states for ev charging. So what can I say? I

904
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 1: have been talking about the Tesla on the podcast, and

905
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:58,880
Speaker 1: I will say I still one hundred percent absolutely infatuated

906
00:44:58,920 --> 00:44:59,560
Speaker 1: with this car.

907
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 2: I love it.

908
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,759
Speaker 1: It's the best car I've ever had. I will say

909
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:06,279
Speaker 1: the fit and finish of the Tesla is definitely not

910
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:10,000
Speaker 1: the best compared to other cars I've had, but it

911
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:14,879
Speaker 1: is overall the experience of driving, of using it, of

912
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 1: not having to go to the gas station is pretty phenomenal.

913
00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:21,120
Speaker 1: And it's funny because there's a little debate on Twitter about,

914
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:24,040
Speaker 1: you know, how expensive gas prices are, and people were saying,

915
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:26,279
Speaker 1: you know, why would you ever drive a gas car

916
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 1: when you can get an electric car? And here's the thing,

917
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:33,120
Speaker 1: Like I understand the fact that you do not buy

918
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:36,800
Speaker 1: a brand new electric car to save money on gas

919
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,919
Speaker 1: number one, just because you're putting out all this new

920
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:44,520
Speaker 1: money on this new car, that is negating any sort

921
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,720
Speaker 1: of savings you might have with electricity. So for instance,

922
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:51,799
Speaker 1: for me, you know, not only was a car expensive,

923
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:55,120
Speaker 1: but then I had to pay it was like total

924
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:59,520
Speaker 1: about fifteen hundred bucks to get the charger installed for

925
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,799
Speaker 1: the car, and so right there, if you do the math,

926
00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 1: I was not. I mean, was I spending two let's see,

927
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:09,960
Speaker 1: fifteen hundred dollars times divided by twelve months, that's one

928
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,440
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five dollars a month. So yeah, maybe

929
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:14,040
Speaker 1: I was spending that much on gas, but I don't

930
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:15,520
Speaker 1: think I was. I think I was spending closer to

931
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 1: like forty or you'll say, eighty a month on gas

932
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:20,560
Speaker 1: for my car because it was a pretty, you know,

933
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: gas sipping vehicle. Maybe not, but the reality is you're

934
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:29,880
Speaker 1: not buying a Tesla or an EV for the savings

935
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 1: right now. In the future, maybe you are, and maybe

936
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,879
Speaker 1: you are in the way it works out for your math,

937
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:37,320
Speaker 1: but I think for most people that are buying it,

938
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:40,960
Speaker 1: it is like for me personally, it was it just

939
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 1: felt what it just felt like what I wanted to

940
00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:46,880
Speaker 1: do in my life, like the right thing for me.

941
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:50,000
Speaker 1: I just couldn't see myself getting another gas powered car

942
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 1: because I live in Los Angeles mostly I commute. You know,

943
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:57,760
Speaker 1: I don't want to contribute to any problems happening with gas,

944
00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:01,480
Speaker 1: Nor did I like the the progress of our gas

945
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:03,719
Speaker 1: prices here in Los Angeles, and so I just said,

946
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,320
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm doing it and I'm making the switch.

947
00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:08,440
Speaker 1: And did I save any money in the process. I

948
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,040
Speaker 1: don't think so. But do I feel great about it?

949
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 2: Yes? And do I love it? Of course?

950
00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:15,920
Speaker 1: And have I had to pay for charging like a

951
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 1: total of three times only?

952
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:18,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

953
00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:20,759
Speaker 1: So I think that this whole idea of buying an

954
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:24,880
Speaker 1: EV to like, you know, avoid gas prices, maybe in

955
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:26,440
Speaker 1: the long term it is true. I don't know, But

956
00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:28,799
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, like, there's always this debate, and I

957
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 1: just don't think it's that.

958
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:32,680
Speaker 2: I don't think it's that clear cut. For most people.

959
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 1: They're not going out there to buy an EV and like, oh,

960
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:37,360
Speaker 1: just buy a Tesla and you can avoid gas. Like, No,

961
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:40,680
Speaker 1: most people can't do that. So most people, if they

962
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 1: have their car, they want to stick with it.

963
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:42,920
Speaker 2: I mean I do.

964
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:44,200
Speaker 1: I want to stick with my car as long as

965
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 1: possible to save the most money. So anyway, with all

966
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 1: that said, that's kind of a side note to this

967
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:53,320
Speaker 1: next story, the best and worst US states for EV charging.

968
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 1: The reason I say this is because here in California,

969
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,120
Speaker 1: EV's are so easy, like it's almost a no brainer,

970
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:02,400
Speaker 1: But if I in a different state, I would probably

971
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:04,399
Speaker 1: have a little bit of pause before I got an EV.

972
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:07,360
Speaker 1: And the reason is because there are some trade offs.

973
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:09,799
Speaker 1: Like so, for instance, we went to San Diego last

974
00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:13,239
Speaker 1: weekend and we went to our friend's house, and you know,

975
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:16,319
Speaker 1: I had to check where a charger was near their

976
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:18,120
Speaker 1: friend's house because I knew when we got down there

977
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:18,920
Speaker 1: we'd be on empty.

978
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:20,720
Speaker 2: And so it turns out.

979
00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:24,680
Speaker 1: There was a supercharger literally at the shopping mall near

980
00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:27,520
Speaker 1: their house, and it was so easy to charge.

981
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:29,320
Speaker 2: It was just it was so simple.

982
00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:32,479
Speaker 1: Now on the flip side, yeah, when you charge your car,

983
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:34,319
Speaker 1: what do you do if it's in one of these

984
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:36,279
Speaker 1: shopping malls. You go in and you spend money. And

985
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,759
Speaker 1: I don't like that aspect because we did do that,

986
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 1: and while our car was charging, you know, we went

987
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,720
Speaker 1: in and we spent you know, a couple of bucks

988
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:44,360
Speaker 1: at the store.

989
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:46,719
Speaker 2: And well, it wasn't a couple of bucks. It was

990
00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:48,440
Speaker 2: it was like over one hundred bucks.

991
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,279
Speaker 1: And so if I would have just gassed up my car,

992
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:53,480
Speaker 1: we would have maybe spent five bucks on snacks at

993
00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:55,680
Speaker 1: the gas station and you'd go. So that's one of

994
00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:57,560
Speaker 1: the downsides is that you're always like, you know, you

995
00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,239
Speaker 1: have this time to burn and what do you do?

996
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:00,960
Speaker 1: You end up going in a store and what are

997
00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 1: they doing. They're building a lot of these chargers outside

998
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:07,480
Speaker 1: stores and restaurants just for that reason. So maybe you

999
00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 1: have more willpower, maybe you can sit in the car

1000
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:09,880
Speaker 1: and watch Netflix.

1001
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:10,200
Speaker 2: I can't.

1002
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:12,800
Speaker 1: I've also have kids, so we walked around whatever anyway.

1003
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 1: States with the most electric This is according to Electric

1004
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:20,000
Speaker 1: Electric the website, which is a great website for all

1005
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:23,919
Speaker 1: stuff ev Let's see number one. States with the most

1006
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:28,360
Speaker 1: electric vehicles per public charging port. States with the most

1007
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:34,560
Speaker 1: electric vehicles per public charging port is Arizona, Hawaii, Washington State,

1008
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:38,360
Speaker 1: So that means that there's a lot of electric vehicles

1009
00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:42,760
Speaker 1: per port. States with the least evis per charge port

1010
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:46,760
Speaker 1: or sorry, the best states for public charging points based

1011
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:54,040
Speaker 1: on mileage is Washington, DC, California, and Hawaii. That's really surprising.

1012
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:57,120
Speaker 1: I would not think. Maybe that's I don't know, but

1013
00:49:57,200 --> 00:49:59,960
Speaker 1: the top three states for chargers are California and New

1014
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:02,759
Speaker 1: York and Florida, and of course those are just like

1015
00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:03,840
Speaker 1: huge states.

1016
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:04,480
Speaker 2: And then.

1017
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:10,560
Speaker 1: California and Florida have the most registered evs. Texas comes

1018
00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:15,160
Speaker 1: in third. Alaska has the fewest number of EV charging outlets,

1019
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:20,160
Speaker 1: followed by the Dakotas. Wyoming and Montana don't have very

1020
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:23,840
Speaker 1: much either, but California is pretty much number one in

1021
00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:26,120
Speaker 1: every category. So if you want to cross the board,

1022
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:31,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just they're apparently, according to this table,

1023
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:35,400
Speaker 1: they've got fourteen million electric cars. And again, this is

1024
00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:37,759
Speaker 1: another thing that you realize you when you have an

1025
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:41,200
Speaker 1: electric car. Right now, it's all very novel, right you

1026
00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:44,240
Speaker 1: go to the store, you find little charger, you plug

1027
00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:44,799
Speaker 1: your car in.

1028
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:47,960
Speaker 2: It's so great, you don't have to wait. But as these.

1029
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:51,000
Speaker 1: Things take off, there is going to be a bigger

1030
00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:55,520
Speaker 1: impact on the grid, on the systems, on the chargers,

1031
00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:57,880
Speaker 1: on you know all those parking spots right now that

1032
00:50:57,920 --> 00:50:59,880
Speaker 1: are in the front of the store, because you know,

1033
00:50:59,880 --> 00:51:02,960
Speaker 1: you got your charger spot, your EV only parking. But

1034
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:05,240
Speaker 1: I don't know how far out we are, but it's

1035
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:06,359
Speaker 1: it is fun though.

1036
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:06,879
Speaker 2: Right now.

1037
00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:08,759
Speaker 1: It's fun, I will that's the best way I can

1038
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:12,560
Speaker 1: describe it. It's just fun. It's it's an adventure. And

1039
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 1: I tweeted this today, but it kind of reminds me

1040
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,160
Speaker 1: of when I got the first iPhone because it was

1041
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:21,040
Speaker 1: such a departure from every other smartphone I ever had.

1042
00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:24,560
Speaker 1: Every day using it was an adventure. The way it worked,

1043
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,200
Speaker 1: the way it sounded, the way you could do things

1044
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,400
Speaker 1: on the screen, the way you could read the newspaper

1045
00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:31,759
Speaker 1: on there, the way you could stream stuff, the way

1046
00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:34,720
Speaker 1: you could watch media, the way you can make phone calls,

1047
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:36,240
Speaker 1: the way it did all kinds of stuff.

1048
00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:38,000
Speaker 2: You could run. Maybe you couldn't run with it at

1049
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:38,520
Speaker 2: that point.

1050
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:42,560
Speaker 1: But there's just so many like little easter eggs every

1051
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:44,440
Speaker 1: day that you're discovering. And that's the same way I

1052
00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:46,840
Speaker 1: feel about the electric car. And so it's fun right now,

1053
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,040
Speaker 1: but there will come a point where it's like the iPhone,

1054
00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:50,040
Speaker 1: it's like standard issue.

1055
00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:50,879
Speaker 2: Everyone has one.

1056
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:53,759
Speaker 1: I mean I say that in a way that you

1057
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,360
Speaker 1: know a lot of people have smartphones now, and so

1058
00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:58,279
Speaker 1: it's not so novel when you see someone pull out

1059
00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:00,600
Speaker 1: a smartphone at a table and you're like, ooh, ooh,

1060
00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:03,319
Speaker 1: show me the cool features, because it's just we all

1061
00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:04,440
Speaker 1: know what the deal is.

1062
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 2: Let's see.

1063
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:09,320
Speaker 1: That's it for that story. But I thought that was interesting.

1064
00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:12,319
Speaker 1: And by the way, the first iPhone, if you had one,

1065
00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:17,080
Speaker 1: you might remember this, but it was a nightmare nightmare,

1066
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:19,480
Speaker 1: mikenightmare for making phone calls.

1067
00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:21,879
Speaker 2: It was so bad, so bad, it.

1068
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:23,920
Speaker 1: Dropped every single call and never forgot walking down the

1069
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:25,600
Speaker 1: street to my dentist. And I think I mentioned this

1070
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:27,759
Speaker 1: on the podcast once before. I was talking to my

1071
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,960
Speaker 1: best friend and I was saying, you know, I got

1072
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:33,520
Speaker 1: the new iPhone. Can you believe it? He goes, Dude,

1073
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:35,880
Speaker 1: I can't understand a word you're saying. You're breaking up

1074
00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:37,759
Speaker 1: so bad. This was back when it was on AT

1075
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:39,480
Speaker 1: and t's brand new or I don't know, it was

1076
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:40,960
Speaker 1: on some sort of AT and T network.

1077
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:42,799
Speaker 2: It was an exclusive and it was just.

1078
00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:47,080
Speaker 1: So bad that it was so horrendous to use as

1079
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:49,960
Speaker 1: an actual phone. Everything else was great, but the phone

1080
00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:52,680
Speaker 1: calls were just so bad. But that's all been fixed now,

1081
00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:56,719
Speaker 1: all right. Final story of the podcast Peloton. I don't

1082
00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:58,400
Speaker 1: know if you heard. They were kind of battered in

1083
00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:03,279
Speaker 1: the last week with their earnings and their projections. This

1084
00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:05,239
Speaker 1: is not CNBC, so I'm not going to get into that.

1085
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,840
Speaker 1: But the bottom line is that, yeah, Peloton had a

1086
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:10,960
Speaker 1: moment during the pandemic where people realized they wanted to

1087
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:13,920
Speaker 1: work out at home, and demand went through the roof

1088
00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:16,399
Speaker 1: and popularity went through the roof, and now that people

1089
00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:19,600
Speaker 1: are going back to the gyms, you know, Peloton is

1090
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:22,560
Speaker 1: still doing well. And I still think that Peloton made

1091
00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:25,239
Speaker 1: a huge impact in our world. But they're just not

1092
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:28,320
Speaker 1: going to sell as many bikes going forward or according

1093
00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:31,640
Speaker 1: to their projections, nor did they sell that many in

1094
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,560
Speaker 1: the past couple of months. So do I think that

1095
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,799
Speaker 1: this means the end of Peloton. Absolutely not. Peloton got

1096
00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:40,680
Speaker 1: us through through the entire pandemic, even though I used

1097
00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:43,640
Speaker 1: it on my bowflex. I used the digital classes and

1098
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,840
Speaker 1: it was amazing, and I still think the instructors are amazing.

1099
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,319
Speaker 1: I think what they're building is really cool, and it

1100
00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:52,320
Speaker 1: might be a little bit slower than what everyone else wants.

1101
00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 1: I also think they're an acquisition target because you know,

1102
00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:58,680
Speaker 1: another bigger fitness company might come through and purchase them,

1103
00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:03,040
Speaker 1: or consolidate a couple of different types of fitness machines

1104
00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:06,840
Speaker 1: into one. But anyway, so Peloton has a new device

1105
00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:10,080
Speaker 1: called the Peloton Guide. This is a five hundred dollars

1106
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:12,440
Speaker 1: The best way I can describe it is it's a

1107
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:17,040
Speaker 1: camera that you put underneath your TV. Kind of looks

1108
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:19,680
Speaker 1: like the remote from the Google Chrome Cast TV. It

1109
00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:23,560
Speaker 1: kind of reminds me of the Microsoft Connect from the Xbox.

1110
00:54:23,680 --> 00:54:27,600
Speaker 1: And this uses machine learning to track your progress and movements.

1111
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,960
Speaker 1: So not only does it watch how you exercise and

1112
00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:34,960
Speaker 1: give you feedback on that, but it also helps you

1113
00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:38,600
Speaker 1: figure out which muscles you've worked and recommend other muscle

1114
00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:41,960
Speaker 1: groups that you need to work. It's voice activated, it's

1115
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:43,920
Speaker 1: got a camera on it, but of course there is

1116
00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 1: the privacy slider so that you can turn it off

1117
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:50,359
Speaker 1: at anytime. There's also a heart rate band that goes

1118
00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:53,920
Speaker 1: along with it. So the thing here is that Peloton

1119
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,200
Speaker 1: is trying to create a world where you don't just

1120
00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:59,399
Speaker 1: follow along on the TV with these workouts, but you're

1121
00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:07,319
Speaker 1: actively getting artificial intelligence feedback on your workout exactly what

1122
00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:09,680
Speaker 1: a what a trainer would do in real life. They

1123
00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:11,919
Speaker 1: would say, rich, you know, you gotta squat a little

1124
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:15,439
Speaker 1: bit deeper, or you gotta, you know, do this, move

1125
00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:17,319
Speaker 1: your arm this way, or make sure you don't bend

1126
00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:19,120
Speaker 1: your back, whatever the trainer would say.

1127
00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:19,680
Speaker 2: In real life.

1128
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:21,960
Speaker 1: That would be the goal of this new device.

1129
00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:26,760
Speaker 3: When is it arriving, I don't know when is it arriving.

1130
00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:31,120
Speaker 1: I don't know when it's arriving. In twenty early twenty

1131
00:55:31,160 --> 00:55:33,319
Speaker 1: twenty two, so that's coming soon.

1132
00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:34,359
Speaker 2: I think it's cool.

1133
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:38,000
Speaker 1: Five hundred dollars is very expensive, but we'll see. I mean,

1134
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:42,200
Speaker 1: peloton stuff is not cheap. Incidentally to other things about

1135
00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:44,440
Speaker 1: the fitness stuff. Number one, I tested an app that

1136
00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:49,360
Speaker 1: was just like this and it's called on how do

1137
00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:52,960
Speaker 1: you say onx O n y x onyx And it

1138
00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:55,560
Speaker 1: exactly if you want to try this out, you can

1139
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:58,239
Speaker 1: download this app for your iPhone and you can see

1140
00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:01,640
Speaker 1: it use the camera to monitor exactly how you're working out,

1141
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:03,440
Speaker 1: and it will give you feedback in real time, and

1142
00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:04,440
Speaker 1: it's actually pretty amazing.

1143
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:05,480
Speaker 2: I'll put it in the show notes.

1144
00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:07,400
Speaker 1: And the other thing is that I tested this thing

1145
00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:12,200
Speaker 1: called climber CLMBR and it's a vertical climbing machine and

1146
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:14,360
Speaker 1: it's like a Peloton but for vertical climbing. And I

1147
00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:17,960
Speaker 1: got to say, all I have to say is ubsessed.

1148
00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:19,279
Speaker 1: And I told my wife, I'm like, I think I

1149
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:21,160
Speaker 1: want to buy one of these, even though it's too expensive.

1150
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:24,200
Speaker 2: It's twenty eight hundred bucks, but I really really want one.

1151
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:27,279
Speaker 1: And it's just the full body workout that I got

1152
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:28,839
Speaker 1: from it was just phenomenal.

1153
00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:30,520
Speaker 2: And that's a startup.

1154
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:32,239
Speaker 1: But It's always a little scary to spend twenty eight

1155
00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:35,759
Speaker 1: hundred bucks on a startups product because you know, are

1156
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:38,959
Speaker 1: they going to be around in a year or two

1157
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:42,640
Speaker 1: and then this twenty eight hundred dollars product could be

1158
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:46,000
Speaker 1: a brick. And I'm not saying that's going to happen

1159
00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:48,960
Speaker 1: with this company, but you just never know.

1160
00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:51,600
Speaker 2: All right, that's going to do it for this episode

1161
00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:52,160
Speaker 2: of the show.
