Speaker 1: It is going well, well, somewhat well. So you know,

12
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 1: I always tell Megan this. So we do this thing

13
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,880
Speaker 1: for We tape our segment for the stations that we're

14
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 1: on KTLA in Los Angeles, but we're also on a

15
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 1: bunch of other stations, and so we always tape our

16
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 1: stuff for the next day and we do it live

17
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 1: as well. So some of the stations run a tape,

18
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: some of them do it live. But anyway, all the

19
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:06,960
Speaker 1: time I always say to her, Ever, since having kids,

20
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: I'm always like, we should just tape this today, even

21
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 1: if it's two days early. Yeah, because you never know

22
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen tonight when I go home, Like the

23
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: kids could be sick. I'm not in tomorrow anyway, So

24
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: last night turn out to be me. So I actually

25
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 1: was cleaning out. I was taking down the Halloween decorations,

26
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: and I blew off the front yard with like a

27
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: you know, an air blower, and I knew I should

28
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: have worn the eyeglass stuff or whatever because there's so

29
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 1: much dust from all the fires and everything. So just

30
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,680
Speaker 1: all this stuff was blown up all over the place,

31
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: and my kid was there and I'm like, oh, watch

32
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: your eyes. Well, well, of course, so what happens? I

33
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 1: get something in my eye? So last night I spent

34
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 1: probably three hours going to the doctor. You know, I

35
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: was literally running water over my eye for forty five minutes,

36
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: trying to get it out of the mirror, you know,

37
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: in the mirror whatever. Long story short, it was just

38
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: like a scratch on the lower part of my eye. Okay,

39
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: thank god not the cornea, because he's like, if this

40
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: was a cornea, you'd be really hurting. But basically, I

41
00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: think I got something in there and like tried to

42
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: rub it out of my eye, but I scratch you know.

43
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,559
Speaker 2: Anyway, did you go to the like an ear.

44
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, like no, no, no, like an emergency care, you know,

45
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: like a little okay. So so that was you know,

46
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 1: twenty five dollars thankfully, and then these eye drops they

47
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 1: prescribe me, you're like fifty five dollars. Yeah, what this

48
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,799
Speaker 1: is insane? So long story short. I could have been

49
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 1: fine with my eyewear, you know, like if I would

50
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: have just put on the stupid glasses I normally wear, yeah,

51
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: I would have been fine. And of course now it

52
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: costs you have all people.

53
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 2: I feel like, you know, wouldn't feel like really good

54
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 2: about that.

55
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: I usually am. And usually it's like, look, anytime you

56
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: ever do stuff with the with the eyewear protection, you're

57
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: always like, give me a break. Yeah, nothing's gonna happen,

58
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: right until it does, and then it's like you wish

59
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 1: she did. Yeah, So all that time and energy wasted

60
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 1: last night, the pizza, like all we had dinner ready,

61
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: like all this stuff we had to like you know,

62
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: so anyway, it's one of those things lesson learned. Just

63
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 1: do what you're supposed to do when you're doing something,

64
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 1: like if there's a step to take, like where eye

65
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 1: protection whatever, Just do it. Yeah, it'll save you the

66
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: house helmet Yeah, where.

67
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 2: The helmets in the seatbelt? Please?

68
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 1: All good advice. If you're listening for the first time,

69
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: I do want to say, welcome to you. If you

70
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 1: heard me on the Leo Laporte radio show or maybe

71
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: on his podcast, welcome to this show. You're going to

72
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: soon find out that it's much more unpolished than Leo's show. Yeah.

73
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 2: Well yeah, but we try. We're a podcast, we're not radio.

74
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: But it's fun.

75
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 2: We don't have commercials though, I mean we have little

76
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 2: tiny ones.

77
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: But do we even have commerce? I don't know if

78
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 1: we do. We have like intros, we have like the intro,

79
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, but all right, let's start with

80
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 1: this because I've been watching the Have you been watching

81
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: any of the Apple TV plus stuff? No? Okay, so

82
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: I have.

83
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know you're you're into it.

84
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: It's the first time I've ever been waiting for a

85
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: new episode of a show. Wow, which is so crazy.

86
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 2: I've heard this time ever.

87
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: In a long time, I mean probably in like a decade. Well,

88
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: with Netflix, they give you everything all at once, right,

89
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: and I'm beginning to realize that I'm not sure that's

90
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: the right way to do it, because it has gotten

91
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: me in the app kind of checking the app. I've

92
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: been watching The Morning Show on Apple TV plus Jennifer Anderson,

93
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 1: Reese Witherspoon, Steve Carell. It's not the best show in

94
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: the world, but a I'm in that business, so I

95
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: find it fascinating and it's just fun. And I don't

96
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: watch a lot of TV, so for me, it's actually

97
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: quite interesting. And you know, I was up in Petaluma

98
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: over the weekend, so I had a lot of time.

99
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 1: So I watched three episodes of a show in one weekend,

100
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 1: which is more TV than I can tell you I've

101
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 1: watched in a long time. But I tell you this

102
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 1: because Apple TV Plus I'm getting for free because I

103
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 1: bought an iPhone, and a lot of other people are

104
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: getting it for free. But we're soon gonna have some

105
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: decisions to make. According to a new survey by TV

106
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: Time and UTAIQ, beyond the Big Three, they're saying seventy

107
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: percent of those asked feel there will be too many

108
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,719
Speaker 1: streaming services to choose from. I kind of agree it's overwhelming. Right,

109
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: So you've got HBO, Max coming up. You've got Disney

110
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: Plus coming up, and Apple TV Plus just launched in

111
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,559
Speaker 1: addition to that. What else do you have? Well, you've

112
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: got what else? Netflix, Ulu, all these random little ones,

113
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 1: you know, like the food Boos of the world, like

114
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:01,479
Speaker 1: all these like you.

115
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 2: Know, I don't know any of these, like off the

116
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 2: grid smaller streaming services. I know they're out there.

117
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: They're specialized. Like if you're into soccer, I think Fubu

118
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 1: is like a big soccer one or Fubo. Okay, So

119
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 1: if you're into British stuff, I think there's one that's

120
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: for British stuff, you know, like that kind of thing.

121
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 2: CBS has CBS All Access. Yeah, you can't watch CBS

122
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 2: like show, like an old show or whatever without that.

123
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: So crazy, isn't it. Oh, Amazon Prime Now a lot

124
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 1: of people get that for free with Prime, so it's fine.

125
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: But anyway, it's getting kind of crazy. So let's just

126
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: see some of the things. In the survey. Forty two

127
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 1: percent less than half said they intended to add a

128
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 1: new streaming service for household viewing, which will probably be

129
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: HBO Max or Disney Plus. And that's the thing. Disney

130
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: Plus and HBO Max are both like very lucrative or

131
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: not appealing, I should say, like, there's a lot of

132
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 1: good stuff on them.

133
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 2: It covers a lot of yeah, surface area of shows.

134
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 1: Like if I'm understanding Disney Plus, right, they have all

135
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: the movies basically that he's ever come out with.

136
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,799
Speaker 2: So I ABC content.

137
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I get all the Pixar movies, Like my

138
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,799
Speaker 1: kids can just watch like all the Pixar movies forever forever. Wow,

139
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: And that's pretty wild for seven bucks a month.

140
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 2: No, I love it, it's very it's amazing.

141
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 1: Eighty eight percent of participants said they were aware of

142
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 1: the November twelfth launch of Disney Plus. Who's not. They've

143
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: been advertising everywhere, so clearly, let's see. The other thing

144
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 1: that helped with Apple TV plus is when Jennifer Aniston

145
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 1: joined Instagram. Oh yeah, and she broke a record, earning

146
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: one million followers in forty five minutes. And she has

147
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: seventeen point five million followers.

148
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 2: She broke Instagram.

149
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, as we say, still got it. Yeah, I mean

150
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 1: that's pretty amazing for her.

151
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 2: She is a force for sure.

152
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 1: The service that most people don't know about is called

153
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 1: QB qeb QB.

154
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 2: How do you expel it?

155
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,160

Speaker 1: he was the k in SKG Spielberg Katzenberg Geff. And

168
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: I'm guessing is the last one, uh huh no, because

169
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: well he did music, I think.

170
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 2: Okay.

00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: I've heard of this, so it's that's gonna be a

175
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: big one too. So yeah, we'll see.

176
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:44,239
Speaker 2: Yeah.

177
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 1: Anyway, I'm on overload with all these things. Every month

178
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: I get my credit card bill and I look at

179
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: this all these little charges and it's like Netflix sixteen bucks,

180
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: it's too little to be concerned about. Yeah, it's it's

181
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: a lot for like, oh wait, when you add them

182
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,080
Speaker 1: all up, you're kind of like, am I really getting

183
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: the use of this?

184
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 2: I know?

185
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 1: And then at and T TV, I always talk about

186
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 1: I pay fifty a month for that, but I get

187
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: HBO plus every cable channel. So it's kind of like, well, HBO,

188
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: if I got it on its own, be fifteen you

189
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 1: HBO go Yeah all that HBO.

190
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, got it? And HBO Max is confusing. I think

191
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 2: we talked about it.

192
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 1: Last Yeah, but it's it's going to be good to Yeah,

193
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff. Yeah, all right. Our first question Megan.

194
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 2: Okay, our first question comes from Kim, and she's asking

195
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 2: about outdoor wireless security cameras. She's looking for an outdoor

196
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 2: security wireless camera that alerts me and is inexpensive. There's

197
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 2: a lot of.

198
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:44,559
Speaker 1: There's a lot of outdoor wireless cameras, but she wants

199
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 1: she said, what was her requirement.

200
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 2: Like cheap and inexpensive.

201
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean who doesn't want that, right? I mean, oh,

202
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:51,559
Speaker 1: hold on, I'd like to pay a lot of money

203
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: for our camera.

204
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,319
Speaker 2: Some people I feel like want like really great quality cameras.

205
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 2: You know, Okay, I'm just saying, like Devil's advocate, there

206
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,199
Speaker 2: are people, Oh yeah, especially in this city.

207
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, well I think I would recommend this. So Amazon

208
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 1: bought a company called Blink Eli and K and I

209
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: think we saw them at CES. Were you with me

210
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: at CES when we saw this company? Yeah?

211
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 2: I don't remember them.

212
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 1: But well their thing is that their little battery or

213
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: their little camera lasts for two years on a battery,

214
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 1: and it's and the best part is there's no installation.

215
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 1: It comes to like a magnetic mount. You screw that

216
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: magnetic mount to your outside wall and then you just

217
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: the camera is magnetic pops on there. So you can

218
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: install this thing easily yourself. It's called the Blink XT

219
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: two indoor outdoor smart security camera. And the other thing

220
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: is cloud storage is included. So she's talking cheap. Did

221
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 1: I even tell you the price?

222
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 2: No?

223
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 1: Ninety dollars? Oh wow, that's for the camera, and you

224
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: don't have to pay for cloud storage. So the way

225
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: the cloud storage works, this company is now owned by Amazon.

226
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: They bought them. The way the cloud storage works is

227
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 1: it gives you I think fourteen days of rolling storage.

228
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 1: So and they only do clips. This is not the

229
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: kind of camera that's going to record twenty four to seven.

230
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: If you want that, you're talking more expensive, right, You've

231
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: got to get a nest or something like that. A

232
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 1: lot of people have these R lowcams. Those are good,

233
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,319
Speaker 1: but they're gonna cost you more. They kind of work

234
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: the same way where they take clips, I believe. But

235
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: you can also I think you can look in a

236
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: live stream of this camera, but it's going to eat

237
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: up the battery. That's how you get that two years

238
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: of battery life. It only starts recording when it senses motion.

239
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 2: Okay.

240
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: And this company blink because I interviewed I think it

241
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 1: was the CEO or the founder someone from the company

242
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: a CS and I was like, dude, how are you

243
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 1: getting two years of battery life? And I said, that's

244
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 1: literally why Amazon bought us, because they built the technology

245
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 1: into these microchips that just they take a trickle of

246
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 1: energy versus you know, hogging up a ton of you know.

247
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 2: So they it senses movement, so like what if it's

248
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:46,559
Speaker 2: like windy.

249
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: Well if something well that I'm sure they have algorithms

250
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: built in that. Yeah, that help with that. But I

251
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: have my nest cam during the holidays like Halloween, when

252
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 1: I have my decorations up, it's going crazy. Yeah, it's

253
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 1: sending me alerts every ten minutes because the decorations are

254
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: blown in the wind and it notices those and it

255
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 1: goes crazy. Yeah. So but I think that's a good

256
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 1: one to blink XT two indoor outdoor smart cam. You

257
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: don't hear about this company as much, but I'm sure

258
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 1: if you're within Amazon, they probably promote them a lot.

259
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 1: But that's easy, right, Yeah, I mean I say, I say,

260
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: go for it. Oh sorry, Okay, hold on, this is

261
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 1: that there is a catch. Okay, So that camera that

262
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 1: I just mentioned, that's an add on. You actually have

263
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 1: to buy a starter kit. I remember this little trick. Okay,

264
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 1: You've got to buy a starter kit which includes two

265
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: cameras and it's one eighty Okay, So I think that's

266
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: part of it is there's like a little hub that

267
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: you have to use inside your house that helps you.

268
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: But anyway, still still pretty darn good. Once you buy this,

269
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: you don't really have to think much about it.

270
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

271
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 1: I love that. Speaking of smart home devices, hackers can

272
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: use lasers to speak to your Amazon Echo or your

273
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,440
Speaker 1: Google Home. And this was a surprise story at a

274
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: wired What they did was they aimed laser beams at

275
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of devices. You're talking smartphones, the iPhone,

276
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 1: the Android phone, Amazon Echo, Google Homes, Facebook Portal, anything

277
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 1: that has a microphone on it. They were able to

278
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: trick it by sending a command over laser and all

279
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: they did was tune the laser beam so that it

280
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 1: sort of mimicked the frequency of a human voice. And

281
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: guess what the little microphone thought. It was a human voice.

282
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:26,679
Speaker 2: And it's crazy.

283
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 1: It is crazy. Now Here's the only thing that's kind

284
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: of good about this is that it didn't work very

285
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: well from very far. So if you're thinking, you know,

286
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: you've got your device by a window and they can

287
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 1: hack in, you know, Okay, here's a scenario. You've got

288
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: a smart door lock, or you've got a garage that

289
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: has a smart you know, it's connected to your system,

290
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: and they use this little laser to say, hey, a

291
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 1: open the garage and now they can get into your

292
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 1: garage from outside the house because you've done you know,

293
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: you've set that up. So when you have all these

294
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 1: smart home devices connected, yes, I have that, not that.

295
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 2: You should say, but like I wouldn't. I don't know

296
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 2: I would ever think to connect my garage opener to

297
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 2: like ALEXA.

298
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: Oh see why not? Like I love it, I personally

299
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 1: have not done that. I do have the ability to

300
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: do it because I like the idea that Amazon could

301
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: put packages in my garage. I have not done that.

302
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 1: Now I do.

303
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,199
Speaker 2: So I mentioned this to my mom, like the idea

304
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,839
Speaker 2: of letting a ups or whatever be able to put

305
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 2: a package inside.

306
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: She was like, no, really, yeah, I wonder why. I mean,

307
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: is it the house thing? Like is it just because

308
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 1: your house is your house? Like I don't feel comfortable

309
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: with that either. Yeah, but I don't know why, Like

310
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: if the guy's going to rob your house because he

311
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,199
Speaker 1: has access because he's Amazon guy, Like what are you

312
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 1: going to do? And you have video of him doing it?

313
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:37,719
Speaker 1: You know? Or her could be her?

314
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I don't know. I think it's just

315
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 2: the idea of having someone be able to get into

316
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 2: your house that you don't know. If it's like a

317
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 2: male person that you know well and you see them

318
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 2: every day, then like maybe it's different. But I don't know.

319
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 2: I actually personally wouldn't want someone to be able to

320
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 2: even if it's Amazon, and like I can track it down.

321
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 2: Like it's like why I would rather.

322
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 1: Avoid it, Yeah, invasion of your privacy. Well, see, for me,

323
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: it's more technical, like I don't really care about them

324
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: opening the door perhaps like and slipping the pack the

325
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: package in. But like to me, it's like we have

326
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: an alarm at the house, and so it would be

327
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,200
Speaker 1: a whole nother thing where like you'd have to disable

328
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: the alarm and like they can't, so then you have

329
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 1: to on the days you're getting a package, which is

330
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: every day in our house, by the way, literally every day,

331
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: you'd have to disable the alarm for the personal comming.

332
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 1: So it's a whole big thing, right, I think that

333
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 1: would happen for a lot of people. Yeah, but then

334
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 1: you would argue, I'm sure you can set it up

335
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 1: where when they disable the front door or they unlock

336
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: it with the electronic clock, it'll disable your alarm. But

337
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 1: then who wants to go that far? Now everything's connected.

338
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and like what if the one day, like let's

339
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 2: say Lindsay leaves her eyepad.

340
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: Drag my wife into this, Okay, Well, like.

341
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, anyone, let's say.

342
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 1: You like to make it real personal.

343
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, like, let's say there's an iPad right

344
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 2: there by the front door and they just are like,

345
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 2: you know what, whatever, and they take it.

346
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 1: Yes, but do you do that? I mean, you work

347
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: here at our station. Do you just like steal stuff

348
00:14:58,240 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: that you see around the station?

349
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 2: No, well, you're a normal person.

350
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, ninety nine point nine percent of people

351
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: are normal. They're not stealing when they see like they

352
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 1: see a laptop on the table, like, oh, you know what,

353
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 1: I wasn't going to be a thief today, but I'm

354
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 1: just going to steal that laptop because it's right there.

355
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 2: Okay, never mind.

356
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 1: There's a lot of weirdos. But I'm just saying I

357
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 1: think that people don't give human beings the benefit of

358
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: the doubt. Like ninety nine point nine percent of the

359
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 1: people you meet are totally normal, average, regular, good people.

360
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: And I would hope the person knocking on the door

361
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: with Amazon is. But I agree, you don't know.

362
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 2: No, I think you should definitely test it out. Though.

363
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 1: I'll leave every I'll do it, and I'll leave like

364
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of stuff. I'll leave like a bowl

365
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: of candy like a signer. Okay, it's funny because I

366
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: leave a tip out for the housekeeping at any hotel

367
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 1: I stay at, and I always make a point to

368
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 1: write a little note next to it that says thank you,

369
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: because I don't want them to just think they're stealing,

370
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: like my five dollars I leave out right right, So

371
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: I'll write a note next to the laptop that says thanks,

372
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: and see if they take it.

373
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, that's nice. You should, but you don't say,

374
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 2: like housekeeping, this is for you.

375
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: No, I just say thank you and they know it's

376
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: I've never had a problem with that situation. Yeah, And

377
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: usually they write back a nice note like they love

378
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 1: writing back, a little note that says thank you so much.

379
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: And then they leave extra towels and extra soap and

380
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: all that stuff, like all this stuff in the bathroom

381
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: they leave like double which I hate because I'm like,

382
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: I don't need all this, but they do it.

383
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's nice.

384
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 1: It's an ongoing cycle, oh, Rich, problem happens all the time.

385
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: So anyway, that's the deal with the laser beams, I guess.

386
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: And the two takeaways from that story are don't leave

387
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: your things by the window, and then also maybe these

388
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: manufacturers will do more voice authentication so it knows it's you,

389
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 1: and it has to verify certain things like maybe it

390
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: asked for a pin. If it's like, hey, drain my

391
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: bank account, it'll be like, hey, can I have your

392
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: PIN number before we do that, you know, if it's

393
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: the command. And then also maybe they'll build like some

394
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 1: sort of shield around the microphone that helps it deflect

395
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 1: these laser beams. Sounds so evil, all right, producer Megan,

396
00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: go ahead, Okay.

397
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 2: So I have a question from Tina. She is a

398
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 2: She says that she's Tech Challenge, and she asks that

399
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 2: she's been trying to figure out if there is any

400
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 2: way that she can buy some sort of flash drive

401
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 2: to plug into her iPhone seven to get all of

402
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 2: the videos and photos off of her phone and onto

403
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 2: something safe so that it will all be kept in

404
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 2: an attached area. That's basically her question.

405
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,399
Speaker 1: What an attached to areas?

406
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 2: She says, keep the info attached to the photos.

407
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,359
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, okay, so she basically wants a backup of

408
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: her pictures off her iPhone.

409
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

410
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,679
Speaker 1: Well, I would recommend a few things. I think that

411
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 1: and this is a is a huge problem, like people

412
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 1: just forget to back up their phone. They think they

413
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 1: have an eye cloud. Some of them are, some of

414
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 1: them aren't. But I think the main things I would

415
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: recommend here. Number one, Google Photos. I just just download

416
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 1: it and use it if you're if you're if you

417
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 1: hate Google, or you don't like Google, get ee Cloud

418
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 1: and just make sure your photos are in there. So

419
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:57,879
Speaker 1: if your photos are on your iPhone and they're an

420
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 1: eye cloud, I mean that's pretty good. Yeah right. I

421
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 1: mean you'd have to have your phone go dead and

422
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: iCloud go dead for you to be at a loss. Right.

423
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: Let's see. The other thing is if you're an Amazon

424
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 1: Prime member, they have Amazon Prime Photos. You can download

425
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,120
Speaker 1: that app and you do get unlimited storage of full

426
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 1: resolution of your pictures. I don't believe videos, but I

427
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 1: know you do of your pictures, so I think you

428
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 1: can just download that and it's kind of like the

429
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:27,199
Speaker 1: same thing. Let's see what else. The other thing if

430
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,880
Speaker 1: you want a physical device, which I think is very

431
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 1: tricky to do, but it can be done. But a

432
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 1: couple of them that I recommend. The first is a

433
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 1: device called eb which we did a story with it.

434
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 1: It's kind of a hard drive that's Wi Fi connected.

435
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: You put it in your house, You download the app

436
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 1: on your phone. Every time your phone gets you know, overnight,

437
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 1: it will kind of look for all your pictures and

438
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 1: it will back them up. And their engineers are pretty smart.

439
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 1: They even made it so that it will go into

440
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 1: iCloud and pull your pictures out from there.

441
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 2: Oh wow.

442
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,640
Speaker 1: So even if you have pictures not on your phone,

443
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: they're backed up an iCloud, it'll still back up those.

444
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 1: So that's pretty good. Yeah, that's expensive. It's like, I think,

445
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty bucks. So, but it's a one

446
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 1: time thing. You know, it should last for a while.

447
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 1: The other thing, if you just want something you physically

448
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,440
Speaker 1: plug into your phone, there's a thing from sand Disc

449
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: called i Expand. And again we did a story on

450
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 1: this a long time ago, and it's it's just you know,

451
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: you plug it in and it will run through the backup.

452
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: I found in my testing with that device that it's

453
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 1: not always perfect and it's a lot of work to

454
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,359
Speaker 1: plug the thing in, let it go through its motions,

455
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 1: you got to keep the app open, all that good stuff.

456
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,359
Speaker 1: So I think one of those more automatic solutions are

457
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,439
Speaker 1: probably better. The Google, the Amazon, the iCloud or the

458
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 1: EB Right, how do you have your pictures backed up

459
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 1: iCloud iCloud? Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the best thing. You Uh,

460
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,880
Speaker 1: Google Photos and I have you lad. I do have iCloud.

461
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: I have two hundred gigs on there, but I use

462
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: it mostly for like to back up my computer, so

463
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 1: I have my desktop always synks to that, so let's smart.

464
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: Remember I got burned with my computer last time where

465
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: it failed, So now I have that turned on. Where

466
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 1: anything I because a lot of times you just throw

467
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 1: stuff on your desktop. Do you do that like where

468
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: you just throw stuff on there, or you have stuff

469
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: in your downloads folder or you have stuff in your

470
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 1: documents folder. All that is sync to iCloud for me,

471
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:12,880
Speaker 1: and then I use it for other little things too.

472
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,639
Speaker 2: Do you use photos on your computer?

473
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 1: No, I do not. I only use Google Photos for

474
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: the organization. And I'm desperately waiting for them to do

475
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,360
Speaker 1: their d duplication feature because I have dumped so many

476
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:29,160
Speaker 1: pictures in there that there's like triple kits and quadruple kits.

477
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 2: That sounds like so so necessary.

478
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they just need AI to go through and

479
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:35,919
Speaker 1: be like, hey, Rich, you have seven of these pictures,

480
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: which one do you want to keep? Do you want

481
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 1: to keep the biggest one? Do you want to keep

482
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 1: the one that's the highest resolution. Do you want to

483
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: keep the one that you took first or the you

484
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: know what I mean, because a lot of them are

485
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: when you when you migrate your accounts and you consolidate,

486
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 1: a lot of times you get little thumbnails mixed in.

487
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 1: You get you know, you uploaded a picture to Instagram

488
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: after you did a filter on it, and now it's

489
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: in your library forever, and it's really it just bugs me.

490
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,880
Speaker 1: I just want to cleaned up. Well. T Mobile is

491
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,400
Speaker 1: really gunning for their merger with Sprint, and it looks

492
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: like it's probably going to happen. But they did have

493
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 1: a big event with a couple of takeaways. Number One,

494
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: they are going to launch their five G network nationwide

495
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:18,919
Speaker 1: on December sixth, covering two hundred million Americans in more

496
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: than five thousand cities and towns, including millions in rural America.

497
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 1: So that's number one. So if you're been waiting for

498
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: five G, it's coming fast and furious December sixth from

499
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: T Mobile. It's not gonna be the entire nation, It's

500
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: not gonna be everywhere. But it sounds like a pretty

501
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 1: big start. Two hundred million people? How many Americans are

502
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:36,920
Speaker 1: in the US.

503
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,360
Speaker 2: Isn't it like one hundred and twenty million or something?

504
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 1: I think it's like six hundred how many millions? I

505
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 1: think it's seven hundred million Americans? How many Americans? Let's see?

506
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 1: Uh what? Oh, never mind, it's wait, what is it?

507
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: Hold on? This can't be right?

508
00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 2: Was that close?

509
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: The Census Bureau rejects a population of four hundred and

510
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 1: seventeen million and twenty sixty So the last census we

511
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 1: had three hundred million. Okay, so that says it covers

512
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,680
Speaker 1: two hundred million people. Wow, so it's only like it's

513
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: like a third of the US or two thirds of

514
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: the US kind of oh wow, that's amazing. All right.

515
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 1: So the two phones you can get five G on

516
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,959
Speaker 1: from T Mobile are the Samsung Galaxy Note ten plus

517
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: five G or the one plus seventy Pro five G.

518
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: McLaren say those ten times fast and it will work

519
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 1: with sprints five G and T Mobiles five G. So anyway,

520
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 1: there you go five G. Let's see crazy fast speeds.

521
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 1: It's going to be fourteen times faster than standard T mobile. Oh, no,

522
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: fourteen times network capacity than standard T mobile, crazy fast

523
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 1: speeds over one hundred megabits per second to ninety percent

524
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 1: of the US population. And wow, that's pretty good. That's amazing.

525
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:54,479
Speaker 1: Let's see what else. Okay, they have this other new

526
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: plan called T mobile Connect and this is going to

527
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: get all the headlines new prepaid service that's going to

528
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 1: be just fifteen dollars a month, which is half of

529
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 1: T Mobile's cheapest service. So what's the biggest question you

530
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,199
Speaker 1: have about that service? Megan about at and t noh

531
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 1: T Mobile for fifteen.

532
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 2: Bucks a month, how much data do you get?

533
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: That's right? And what do you get to gigabytes of

534
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,360
Speaker 1: high speed data that's you're going to burn through that

535
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,640
Speaker 1: on your on the Instagram you're surfing right now. Yeah,

536
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 1: that's let's see, for twenty five dollars a month, you

537
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 1: have five gigs of data. But still for a lot

538
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,439
Speaker 1: of people who just want I get a lot of

539
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: emails from people who have phones for their elderly parents

540
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,919
Speaker 1: and they say, look, my mom's she did four minutes

541
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 1: last year or four minutes last month, like can you

542
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: recommend a plan? And they're all kind of expensive unless

543
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 1: you go, so anyway, fifteen dollars. No, that's amazing, pretty

544
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 1: good for a certain use case, right, not for everyone.

545
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 2: Okay, so this next question comes from Rendee. Didn't I

546
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,479
Speaker 2: hear about an app or something that helps find you

547
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 2: lower car and home insurance?

548
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: Oh well, she probably did, maybe for me a long

549
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 1: time ago. Were you here when I talked about Gabby?

550
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:08,120
Speaker 2: Doesn't sound for there.

551
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 1: I think it was before your time. But I thought

552
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 1: this was a great app, and it's it's called Gabby,

553
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 1: and it kind of like they put a little high

554
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: tech spin when you go to any of those websites.

555
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 1: By the way, ninety nine point nine percent of websites

556
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 1: that you go to online to compare your car insurance

557
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 1: or your home insurance or your renters, they're all bogus.

558
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 2: They're just taking your data.

559
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 1: They're taking your data and they're selling it to the

560
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 1: companies that say, hey, we want to get that data

561
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: and we'll sell you a quote. Yeah. So it's not

562
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 1: a it's not very good. And now I think that Gabby.

563
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: Their difference is that they probably do some of that,

564
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 1: but they do work with a bunch of insurers, like

565
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 1: I think, in a legit way. So they shop from

566
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 1: our network of forty top insurance companies, including Progressive, Kemper, Traveler's, Hippo, Lemonade,

567
00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 1: clear Cover, Safec, Mercury Insurance. And so I think that

568
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: they just seem And the reason why I think they

569
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,360
Speaker 1: just seem more legit is because it's a tech company

570
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 1: more so than like these random quote online dot com

571
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 1: kind of things, you know what I mean. And I've

572
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 1: done those, believe me. And the problem with doing them

573
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: is that they just get you get hounded. Don't even

574
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 1: ever put your phone number in those things because you

575
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 1: will just get calls like you cannot believe. So anyway,

576
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 1: Gabby's really cool. And the other thing I like about

577
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 1: what they do, at least when they started, and I

578
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: think they still do this is that you can log

579
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 1: in with your insurance. So if you have like Progressive,

580
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 1: and you log in with Gabby, like Gabby will you

581
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: create account, you log in with your Progressive account. They

582
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: go in and crawl your Progressive account to see the

583
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,360
Speaker 1: coverages that you have, and so they know exactly what

584
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: you've got going on the cars that you have, and

585
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,880
Speaker 1: then they use that to pull your quote and compare

586
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:52,919
Speaker 1: so and they also know how much you're paying, So

587
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: I think that's kind of like a step above all

588
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: these other random things. If you're not comfortable with logging in,

589
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,719
Speaker 1: which some people aren't, I totally am, you can upload

590
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,919
Speaker 1: a pdf of your declarations page from your insurance company

591
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 1: and they'll use That might not be as good. But

592
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 1: the other thing that Gaby will do is kind of

593
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,360
Speaker 1: remind you every six months to shop and be like, hey,

594
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,360
Speaker 1: we found your stuff. You know, we found a lower rate.

595
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 1: So for me personally, when I tried this, I did

596
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 1: not find a lower rate. Okay, so my insurance I've

597
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 1: had them for a while and I just feel like

598
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:22,879
Speaker 1: I have a pretty good rate with them, so I

599
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,120
Speaker 1: can't seem to get any cheaper. But anyway, that's when

600
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,639
Speaker 1: I check out gabby dot com. Gabby dot com seems

601
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,919
Speaker 1: pretty good cool. Have you ever stay in an Airbnb, Megan?

602
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 2: Have I stayed in Airbnb?

603
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: Yes? What about a hotel room?

604
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 2: Have I stayed in a hotel room?

605
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:40,239
Speaker 1: No?

606
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 2: I've never stayed in.

607
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 1: Have you ever wondered about a hidden camera in a

608
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 1: room that you've stayed in?

609
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:46,760
Speaker 2: Yeah?

610
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: Is that like a thing? Like I think most people

611
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:50,360
Speaker 1: at this point we see it on the news, think

612
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:50,639
Speaker 1: about it.

613
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,679
Speaker 2: Our camera's everywhere. Yeah, yeah, I think it's normal to

614
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 2: be a little bit paranoid these days.

615
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I agree. I mean I kind of I

616
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,120
Speaker 1: don't search my hotel room, but you kind of when well,

617
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 1: when you see like a little grate, you wonder I

618
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 1: do take a look inside the grate, especially in the bathroom.

619
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 1: I kind of look just up at the grate in

620
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: the you know, if there's usually like an air vent

621
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 1: or I just kind of I'm always.

622
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,400
Speaker 2: Like, what's the air event? Is that where you think

623
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 2: it would be?

624
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, because it's just an easy place to hide it.

625
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 1: Oh okay, that's usually where you hear about him when

626
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 1: you see it on the news air events. Well, the

627
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 1: reason I tell you all this is because there is

628
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:24,439
Speaker 1: a new device called the Scout Hidden Camera Finder on

629
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 1: a website spyguy dot com. And this guy wanted to

630
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,400
Speaker 1: create a device that can help people because he sees

631
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 1: this on the news all the time, and so he

632
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 1: created the Hidden Camera Finder and the Scout. It's a

633
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: little device that has kind of like these high powered

634
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 1: LED lights plus a little hole in the middle, so

635
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: if you held it up, it looks like a hole

636
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 1: with LED lights around it. And plus a place to

637
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: hold it. And when you light up those lights, you

638
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: look through the hole and those lights will reflect on

639
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 1: a camera lens. Right, so you kind of look around

640
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 1: the room almost like what would it be like looking

641
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 1: through not binoculars, but almost like a little.

642
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like binoculars. Binoculars one binocular, Yeah, like

643
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:01,879
Speaker 2: one like one lens mono.

644
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 1: Monocular, a monocule kind of thing.

645
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 2: Yeah.

646
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 1: And so the reason why this works is because most

647
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,800
Speaker 1: lenses out there in a camera have an infrared filter

648
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 1: and that bounces back the infrared light or the I

649
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 1: guess the LED light.

650
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 2: How have we not thought of this? I don't know,

651
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 2: but it's so smart.

652
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 1: But it's funny. He says this because when you when

653
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:26,119
Speaker 1: we record stuff with the iPhone ten or the iph

654
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,959
Speaker 1: ten and up, which has this IR blaster for your

655
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,120
Speaker 1: face ID, it always flickers when you're taking a video

656
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 1: of it, because that's it's reacting with a camera that

657
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 1: you're taking a picture of somehow. So that's kind of

658
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 1: like what he's talking about. So, long story short, you

659
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: look around the room with this little thing, and if

660
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: you see a light flashing back at you, it's like, oh,

661
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 1: there's probably a camera there and you can go look.

662
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: So it's kind of wild. It's one hundred dollars. And

663
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 1: the reason why there's other ways of looking for cameras

664
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,719
Speaker 1: and rooms. I guess a preferred method is using some

665
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 1: sort of wireless transmitter that senses if there's a wireless

666
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 1: transmission going on. But this works with cameras that might

667
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 1: record to a micro SD card and they're not transmitting anything. Okay,

668
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: you know. Let's say there was a story with Southwest

669
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 1: Airlines where I think we talked about it here where

670
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 1: they put the camera in the bathroom and I think

671
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: my theory was it was a GoPro because they were

672
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 1: watching it live on the iPad. Maybe I just shared

673
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,280
Speaker 1: it on Twitter. I can't remember, but it would catch

674
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: something like that. Well, I guess that would be transmitting.

675
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 1: So never mind. The point is this kind of this

676
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 1: is a low tech way of finding cameras.

677
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 2: So would you buy one?

678
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: I personally would not know, Yeah, but you know, would

679
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: you No? This is kind of think it's it's next level.

680
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 2: I think if you're a spy, well, what if you traveled?

681
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 1: What if you traveled for work three hundred days a year?

682
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, like you're in a different hotel room every night.

683
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like that makes sense, sure, but I

684
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 2: don't so there's you know, no reason.

685
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 1: But I think there's an appeal to this kind of

686
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 1: device and it's cool that it's out there. Yeah, and

687
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,920
Speaker 1: some people may be drawn to it because they're you know,

688
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 1: more caution than others. But my thing, I don't know.

689
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 2: I just feel like with an Airbnb, it's like illegal

690
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 2: to put cameras in.

691
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 1: The Airbnb, right, I think so.

692
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 2: So, I mean that would be if you're someone who,

693
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 2: like for some reason, stays in a lot of airbnbs.

694
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 2: I feel like Airbnb over hotel, right, I feel like

695
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 2: airbnbs definitely have cameras.

696
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that the like if I had to

697
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: think of the law, I think that anytime there's an

698
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 1: expectation of privacy, yeah, you know, you would expect like

699
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 1: a camera. Now I wonder because I'm not sure about

700
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 1: the law on this, because if it's your house that

701
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 1: you're renting and you have cameras in the living room

702
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: and in the dining room, I don't know, is that okay?

703
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: But not in the bedroom perhaps because there's an expectation

704
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 1: of privacy, and in the bathroom because I think there

705
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 1: is something to do with expectation of privacy. When you're

706
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 1: in a living room, you don't have as much expectation

707
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: of privacy as you are in the bedroom, right, right,

708
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 1: but you're in a private home. I mean, I think

709
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 1: it gets a little complicated.

710
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 2: I mean, these are like good things to talk about, though,

711
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,720
Speaker 2: I mean Airbnb should Airbnb has some issues right now.

712
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, but maybe they do have rules for they might.

713
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 2: Be like no cameras. I would, I would.

714
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 1: Assume, but you also want to protect your place if

715
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: you had.

716
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,080
Speaker 2: No No, I totally agree. I yeah, I would never

717
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 2: honestly want to rent anything out. I just I don't know.

718
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, let's say it had a camera. Let's say

719
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 1: you go on the airbnbing and you get in there

720
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 1: and there's a camera in the kitchen and a camera

721
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 1: in the living room. Are you okay with that?

722
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 2: No? Because I feel like whoever's renting out this house

723
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 2: is literally just I think they're just watching you, Like

724
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 2: they just turn their phone on and they're just like

725
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 2: seeing what's going on. I think that that's really strange.

726
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 1: But do they have a right to do that because

727
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 1: it's their house? Yeah? See, these are it's complete I

728
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 1: don't know if you're paying, I don't know. I don't

729
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 1: know the answer to that. Yeah, it's a weird thing,

730
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 1: right when you start to think.

731
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,960
Speaker 2: About it, Well, okay, if it's the same thing, as

732
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 2: you know, it's not the same. But getting a hotel

733
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 2: room like you.

734
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 1: That I think you're expectation of privacy.

735
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 2: But if you have like a suite like I mean, yeah,

736
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 2: it's weird, all right, it is weird.

737
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 1: Uh wait is it my turn? Yeah? I think it

738
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 1: is my turn.

739
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 2: You just talked about the.

740
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: Camera, Gabby, Oh the camera. Oh, it's your turn. Go ahead.

741
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:10,959
Speaker 2: So this next question comes from Bill. So I know

742
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 2: you have written some iPhone books since I use Android,

743
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 2: have you ever considered writing one hundred and one Tips

744
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 2: for Android? I would be your first customer. Love listening

745
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 2: to your podcasts.

746
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 1: Ah, well, thank you, Bill. Here's the thing. I get

747
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: this question all the time. And yes, my book is

748
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: one hundred and one iPhone Tips and Tricks, and I

749
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 1: get this question all the time. People want to know,

750
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: rich when are you going to write the Android book?

751
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 1: And believe me, I would if I could. And here's

752
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 1: the reasons why I can't. Android is different on every

753
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 1: device out there, even if you have a Samsung device,

754
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:47,959
Speaker 1: it's different on the Note than it is on the

755
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 1: S nine, And it's different on the S ten, And

756
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 1: it's different on the S six that some people are

757
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 1: still rocking. It's different on the LG phone. It's different

758
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 1: on the Pixel phone. It's different on the new Pixel

759
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: versus the old Pixel. It's tricky with Android because there

760
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 1: is not one flavor of Android that runs across all devices.

761
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 1: In fact, even within Android, like if you said, well, Rich,

762
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 1: just do it for like Android ten or Android nine.

763
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 1: There are features that are left out of manufacturer's phones

764
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 1: because every manufacturer has the right to include or not

765
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 1: include a feature except for core things like you know

766
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 1: you have to have Google play Store on there, right yeah,

767
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 1: or you know YouTube or maps pre installed. But after that.

768
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 1: So I don't know how to tackle the whole Android thing. Now,

769
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 1: if I didn't have a full time job on a

770
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 1: TV station, I only wrote books, Like yes, would I

771
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: write a book on the Note ten? Of course, I'd

772
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 1: love to, And that'd be a great book.

773
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess, like since you can just personalize the

774
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,600
Speaker 2: phone so much, it would be What would be interesting

775
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 2: would be if like you did your take on like

776
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 2: how you run your Android, right.

777
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 1: And I actually thought about that. Yeah, but and there

778
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 1: are some things, and you know, maybe it is my

779
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 1: fault for not sitting down and trying to come up

780
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 1: with one hundred and one things that actually work across

781
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 1: all Androids. Yeah, but I feel like the book would

782
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: much would be much more oriented towards like apps you

783
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 1: can download in ways of customizing your phone. Yeah, because

784
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 1: there are a lot of things like I have a system.

785
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:11,919
Speaker 1: When I get an Android phone to test, I sort

786
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 1: of go through and like do all these same things,

787
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 1: like the way I set up my WiFi and the

788
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 1: way I set up this and my homescreen and the

789
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: things I download. So maybe there's a place for it.

790
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 1: I think that the iPhone is just easier to do

791
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 1: right now because it does run the same software on

792
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 1: iPhone six S until eleven pro. It's like five generations

793
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: of phones times three phones in each generation, so you're

794
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 1: talking like fifteen devices that it works on, you know,

795
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 1: going back five years. So it's anyway. So that's the

796
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,279
Speaker 1: short answer of it, and the long answer is that yes,

797
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: I'd love to do it, but I only have so

798
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:47,400
Speaker 1: much time in my life, and I also want to

799
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,520
Speaker 1: make a book that's going to be available to the

800
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,920
Speaker 1: most amount of people, because it's tough to write a

801
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:53,719
Speaker 1: book and it only sells like three hundred copies because

802
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,279
Speaker 1: that's how many people have the OnePlus, you know, so

803
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 1: it's kind of it's tough not to knock on one

804
00:34:58,080 --> 00:34:58,839
Speaker 1: plus I love them.

805
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, but again, Oh so you would have to write

806
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 2: the book specific to like a Samsung or right.

807
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: Oh so that's the tough part.

808
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,880
Speaker 2: But I could probably you could do the pixel.

809
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, but not no one has the pixel that's the problem.

810
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 1: No that phone. Okay, just to give you an example, I.

811
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 2: Thought it was like such a popular.

812
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 1: Okay, I'll give you. I'll give you an example. Okay,

813
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,799
Speaker 1: the pixel last year. Okay, hold on, I'll start the

814
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 1: other way. Okay, the iPhone in one quarter sells about

815
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 1: fifty million units in one quarter. That's three months a

816
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 1: newer iPhone or any iPhone. Let's just say when an Apple,

817
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:36,240
Speaker 1: they sell about fifty million iPhones in three months, right, pixel?

818
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 1: I think they sold last year two to four million total.

819
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,280
Speaker 2: What that's in the US?

820
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:46,800
Speaker 1: Uh, in the world everywhere?

821
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.

822
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 1: Uh Pixel three. Let's see, let's see how many they sold.

823
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 2: I've noticed a lot of influencers have been like pushing

824
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 2: the Pixel. But I'm like, you definitely posted this on

825
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 2: an iPhone. If they talk about it in a video

826
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 2: like a selfie video on Instagram stories, like, it doesn't

827
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 2: look like it's actually been shot.

828
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,560
Speaker 1: On an iPhone, really well, they probably do sell it

829
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:15,440
Speaker 1: on them. Yeah that's what's uh, isn't that crazy? Yeah?

830
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:16,320
Speaker 2: That is crazy?

831
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:22,720
Speaker 1: So there you go. I think, yeah, two million, that's

832
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: that's wild. That's okay. So that's why that's the problem

833
00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 1: right now.

834
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 2: That's the problem.

835
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 1: Sorry, Bill, Okay, So should we speak about the iPhone

836
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,320
Speaker 1: because a new review is out of the camera in

837
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 1: the iPhone and there's this website called doc Soomark DxO Mark, and.

838
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 2: You have your review coming out pretty soon.

839
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 1: Yes, So I a little spoiler alert. We did a iPhone.

840
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 1: I took the iPhone eleven Pro Max versus the Pixel four.

841
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 1: I took them both out and I did like three

842
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,759
Speaker 1: different locations five hours, and I just shot a whole

843
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: bunch of pictures. We're gonna show that on KTLA and

844
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,759
Speaker 1: I'll save my opinion for maybe the next report or

845
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 1: the next podcast. I can tell it now, I guess

846
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:04,719
Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter. But DxO Mark came out their

847
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 1: review of the iPhone eleven Pro camera. And before you

848
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,120
Speaker 1: think that the iPhone eleven Pro Max is the top

849
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 1: camera out there, according to them, there's two phones that

850
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: are better. Oh and those two phones are the Huawei

851
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 1: May thirty Pro, which you can't get in America, and

852
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:24,320
Speaker 1: the second one is the Shaomi me CC nine Pro Premium,

853
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 1: which again not in America.

854
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 2: Is that the one that's like one hundred and twenty

855
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:29,840
Speaker 2: no idea megabytes or something.

856
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 1: Oh, one hundred and twenty megapixelsh And then after the

857
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,880
Speaker 1: iPhone comes the Samsung Galaxy Note ten Plus, and then

858
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:41,320
Speaker 1: the Galaxy Yeah, Galaxy Note ten basically after the iPhone. Okay,

859
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 1: so anyway, okay, and then the pixel is way far down.

860
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 1: It's it's actually number one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine,

861
00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 1: ten eleven. Now, DxO Mark is very controversial. People trash

862
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 1: them online. People, some people swear by them. Other people

863
00:37:58,120 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 1: trash them, say that they get paid to do all

864
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 1: these things whatever. But the reality is they do a

865
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,319
Speaker 1: very thorough job of reviewing the cameras. And so here's

866
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,960
Speaker 1: the bottom line from the iPhone eleven Max pro eleven.

867
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,520
Speaker 1: Pro Max matches our top store for video recording video

868
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:15,800
Speaker 1: clips with good detail, very wide dynamic range, and smooth

869
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:19,880
Speaker 1: stabilization in most circumstances. It's still image results put it

870
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 1: among the best thanks to consistently good results from the

871
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: primary camera, which now has a very capable wide angle

872
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 1: lens with the widest field of view we've seen. Boca

873
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,880
Speaker 1: Is and Zoom are not quite up with the very best,

874
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 1: Big Deal, but those are not top priorities. New iPhone

875
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,360
Speaker 1: is an easy recommendation for any mobile image creator, especially

876
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,840
Speaker 1: with those who have already invested in the iOS system.

877
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 1: And you know, I'll just go ahead and kind of

878
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 1: like tell you my difference. When I'm carrying the iPhone,

879
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: I feel like I can conquer the world, and I

880
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,759
Speaker 1: really do. It just feels like it does everything. It's

881
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 1: really good. We shoot with it all the time. Remember

882
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 1: we shot we tried to shoot something with a pixel

883
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 1: the other day. Yeah, pixel photos are amazing, but it

884
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 1: kind of like I've always said, it's a one trick pony.

885
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 1: What happened when we tried to shoot a video the

886
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 1: other day on the pixel? What happened to that video?

887
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 2: Audio was all messed up like it didn't sink right,

888
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 2: which was really strange.

889
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 1: Have we ever had that problem on an iPhone?

890
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 2: No?

891
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,720
Speaker 1: Never, No. So we plug a microphone into the pixel,

892
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,880
Speaker 1: which it accommodates, and we roll our video and you

893
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 1: play back the video and guess what, Rich's lips are

894
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 1: moving and you're not hearing what I'm saying until a second.

895
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 2: Later, and it sounded really sounded really strange. And that

896
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 2: wasn't the MIC's fault. That was like the pixel, like

897
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,279
Speaker 2: the way it Yeah, so if you.

898
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:41,719
Speaker 1: Only want great pictures and really nothing else matters to you,

899
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,320
Speaker 1: I do think the pixel is amazing if you want

900
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:48,360
Speaker 1: a combination of things like an Apple Watch and you know,

901
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,920
Speaker 1: not Siri, but like you know, and great apps, yeah,

902
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 1: and all this other stuff that comes along, and accessories,

903
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:57,240
Speaker 1: like you can walk into any seven eleven in America

904
00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,879
Speaker 1: and buy a case for your iPhone or cable. Yeah,

905
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:01,800
Speaker 1: I can't say the same.

906
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 2: Right, the cable might not work, cable might cable might

907
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:08,799
Speaker 2: blow up, but you know they're everywhere, but you can

908
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 2: get one. Most of them don't work, right seven eleven.

909
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm not gonna yeah, you know, yeah totally,

910
00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 1: But it's the cheaper cables. Yeah, they can definitely not

911
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 1: work as much. By the way, I just learned a

912
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 1: new tip for the Apple Watch. So when I get

913
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 1: phone calls on the Apple Watch, you can just place

914
00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 1: your palm over it and touch the whole face of

915
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,239
Speaker 1: the watch and it will silence the call, but it

916
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:33,200
Speaker 1: will still let it ring anyway. Pro tip for you.

917
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 2: That's cool.

918
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:35,719
Speaker 1: All right, Megan, go ahead, one more question. I think

919
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 1: that's all we have time for.

920
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 2: Oh key, what do I want to ask? Okay, so

921
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:45,080
Speaker 2: this next question comes from Eddie Love, your podcast and

922
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 2: site always filled with amazing info. I am looking to

923
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,799
Speaker 2: buy a new tablet on Black Friday. I know you

924
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 2: recommend iPad, but we are an Android family. We don't

925
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 2: own any Apple products. So do you have an Android

926
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:01,720
Speaker 2: reckon all tablet?

927
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:04,959
Speaker 1: I do not, and I don't know what to say

928
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 1: because I I just the reason I don't recommend the

929
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 1: Android tablets because I just don't think they're as good

930
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:15,800
Speaker 1: as the you know, yeah, the iPad, right, and the

931
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 1: iPad price for three twenty nine, You're getting so much

932
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 1: for that money, including a great tablet experience, great accessories,

933
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 1: Apple pencil support if you want it, cases, you know,

934
00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 1: you can get all kinds of cases and keyboard covers

935
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 1: and all kinds of great stuff. So it extends beyond

936
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 1: just kind of like the main like, oh, is it

937
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 1: a good tablet? You know? And I get it. If

938
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:41,479
Speaker 1: you're an Android family, I get it. That's really tough

939
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 1: to get a Apple tablet.

940
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,560
Speaker 2: If anything, if this person were to get an iPad,

941
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:49,759
Speaker 2: I feel like it would slowly make them want to

942
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:50,800
Speaker 2: like turn Apple.

943
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:52,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I get it if you've bought all your

944
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 1: apps and Google Play and you want them to work

945
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 1: on the tablet. But anyway, so the only tablet I

946
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,760
Speaker 1: would truly recommend if you're looking for an Android tablet

947
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 1: is probably the Amazon Fire HD ten. They just came

948
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:04,040
Speaker 1: out with the new version of it. And the reason

949
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:05,880
Speaker 1: why I like the new version, it's one hundred and

950
00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 1: fifty dollars, by the way, super cheap, and this is

951
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:09,839
Speaker 1: why a lot of people are attracted to them. And

952
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,799
Speaker 1: by the way, don't buy any Amazon products until have

953
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:16,879
Speaker 1: a moratorium on buying anything Amazon untidy Black Friday, because

954
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,800
Speaker 1: they will go on sale all their products. Their branded

955
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 1: products always go on sale. Put them in your shopping cart.

956
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,239
Speaker 1: Now wait until Black Friday and purchase but this is

957
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty dollars. I would expect this to

958
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 1: be one thirty during I'm just going to throw out

959
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:31,040
Speaker 1: that prediction.

960
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:32,319
Speaker 2: Did Amazon by Eero?

961
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,320
Speaker 1: Yes, so that will put it on sale on sale.

962
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 1: They also have the new thing about the Fire HD ten.

963
00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 1: They just came out with the new version and it

964
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 1: has USB C, which is great because we've been waiting

965
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,239
Speaker 1: for that for a long time. The only other thing

966
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:47,279
Speaker 1: to know about the Fire tablet is that it does

967
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 1: not have Google Play Store on it, so you can't

968
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,799
Speaker 1: actually install the apps like that, but it has a

969
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 1: lot of apps through the Amazon Store, but it does

970
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 1: run Android. But the only other thing I'd look at

971
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:00,880
Speaker 1: is one of the tablets from Samsung and you know,

972
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:02,959
Speaker 1: one of their tabs. I think it's like the tab

973
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:05,399
Speaker 1: S six or something like that. But maybe look at those.

974
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 2: And if you want a really really an expensive tablet,

975
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 2: the Walmart.

976
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, if you want to super super cheap thirdy, yeah,

977
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 1: the Walmart on. We did a review of them and

978
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,360
Speaker 1: it's the on tablet. It's their own brand. Yeah, and

979
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,319
Speaker 1: they're super cheap. I think they were like sixty five

980
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,799
Speaker 1: dollars or like ninety dollars really cheap for either like

981
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: an eight inch or ten inch. I mean it's really

982
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:27,760
Speaker 1: really cheap.

983
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:29,759
Speaker 2: But you can like watch shows on.

984
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:31,880
Speaker 1: If you just need to do basic stuff like watch shows.

985
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:33,279
Speaker 1: You're not going to do any work on there, but

986
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, well that's going to do it for

987
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:37,479
Speaker 1: the show.

988
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:38,480
Speaker 2: Oh really?

989
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:40,560
Speaker 1: Yeah? What can you believe it?

990
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:41,239
Speaker 2: No?

991
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,400
Speaker 1: How fast did that go? See when you're having.

992
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 2: Fun talking about tech.

993
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:49,400
Speaker 1: When you're having fun, time flies. And that's why this

994
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:51,800
Speaker 1: job goes by so fast. Thanks so much for listening.

995
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:54,719
Speaker 1: Like you heard earlier, my book is called one and

996
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:57,880
Speaker 1: one iPhone Tips and Tricks. It's been fully updated for

997
00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 1: iOS thirteen. In fact, this is how diligent I am

998
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:04,200
Speaker 1: about my book. Yesterday I went home and actually updated

999
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:07,360
Speaker 1: a couple of pages on things that have changed with

1000
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:11,520
Speaker 1: the latest iOS thirteen point two. Apple changed a few things,

1001
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,520
Speaker 1: notably the way you rearrange apps on your home screen.

1002
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,480
Speaker 1: So I went back and actually changed the whole book

1003
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 1: and both the ebook and the publisher and the print

1004
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:21,319
Speaker 1: so that you can be getting that.

1005
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 2: You can just do that now.

1006
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:24,439
Speaker 1: I do a disclaimer in the front of the book

1007
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:26,800
Speaker 1: where I say, look, Apple might change things slightly, it

1008
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 1: still works kind of the same way, like you still

1009
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 1: figure it out, but I wanted to make sure the word.

1010
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 1: They actually changed the wording on one It used to

1011
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:36,880
Speaker 1: say rearrange home screen. Now it says if you do it.

1012
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 1: Let's see what it says. Now now it says edit

1013
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:43,560
Speaker 1: home screen. So oh well, if you got the book

1014
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 1: and you're like, Rich, where's this rearrange home screen? I

1015
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 1: can't find it? Well they changed it, so anyway, So

1016
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,280
Speaker 1: that's how diligent I am about my book. It's available

1017
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:51,960
Speaker 1: for the Kindle as an ebook. You can read it

1018
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:54,080
Speaker 1: for free if you have Kindel Unlimited, or you can

1019
00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:56,840
Speaker 1: purchase the ebook or the paperback. It makes a great

1020
00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 1: holiday gift. Believe me, the emails I get about this book.

1021
