Speaker 1: thanks for helping me out here and listening. So I

29
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 1: love answering your questions. And let's just start with something

30
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: that's happening real quick in the news right now as

31
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: we speak. So Apple has had kind of a rough run.

32
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 1: Two things that are going on with Apple right now

33
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 1: that are just crazy. So number one, there's a character

34
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: that if you send it to the iPhone, it will

35
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 1: crash the iPhone, not just the iPhone, but also the

36
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: Apple Watch and mac os. So it's an Indian character.

37
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 1: It's a character of the Telugu language, which is spoken

38
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: by about seventy million people in India. And I don't

39
00:01:58,040 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: even know what it looks like. I mean, it just

40
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: looks like a little I don't know, snake or something.

41
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: But it's a character that if you send it to

42
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: the iPhone, it will crash it. So don't do this.

43
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 1: In fact, the websites aren't even copying, letting you copy

44
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: and paste the character because it's that dangerous, so don't

45
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: do that. But yeah, so Apple, I guess they tried

46
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: this out on a bunch of phones and it crashes.

47
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 1: The whole thing makes your phone go into bootloop. So

48
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 1: do not try this at home. Not something you even

49
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: want to try out. But apparently on iOS eleven point three,

50
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: which is the next version coming out that beta, it

51
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: is immune to it, so I guess it's already fixed.

52
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: Apple already knows about this. But the problem is they

53
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: can't just send out a little tiny update every single day,

54
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: even though it seems like we've gotten a lot of

55
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,079
Speaker 1: updates from Apple lately, but that one you're gonna have

56
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: to wait for. The good news is I mean, unless

57
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 1: you live in India, you're probably not sending this character

58
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: a lot. So it is a problem. But you know,

59
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: these kind of things happen, all right. So here's the

60
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 1: other thing happening with Apple. We talked about the home

61
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 1: Pod last week. This is their three hundred and fifty

62
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: dollars smart speaker. Well, now there's a little problem with

63
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 1: that speaker, and you have my review on it. The

64
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: thing sounds amazing, but it's very limited because all it

65
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 1: gives you is Apple Music. So if you're an Apple

66
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: Music subscriber, that's awesome. But otherwise, I mean, what are

67
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: you gonna do with this thing. You can't get iHeartRadio

68
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,959
Speaker 1: on it, you can't get Pandora on it, you can't

69
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: get anything on it except Apple Music. So it's very limited.

70
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: But it sounds great. But here's the problem. You put

71
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: it on a wooden desk or a wooden piece of

72
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,080
Speaker 1: furniture and it's gonna leave a ring on the bottom.

73
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 1: That's not good. Apparently there's some kind of oil or

74
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: something that's in the silicone base that is causing leaving

75
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: a little ring behind, and so already there is well.

76
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: Apple's response to this was, hey, look, you know what,

77
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: that's pretty typical for a silicone what do they call

78
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: vibration dampening silicone base to leave mild marks when placed

79
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: on wooden surfaces. And they said that Echo Dot and

80
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 1: Sono Swan reportedly can also leave similar marks. And they said, look,

81
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: you can wipe it down, wipe down your table, or

82
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: you can you know, they go away after a while.

83
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 1: So it's funny. When we were testing this out on

84
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: my kitchen table, I put this thing down, no joke,

85
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: for a minute or two. We were just shooting our segment,

86
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: and when I picked it up and moved it to

87
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 1: a different spot, there was the ring. And my photographer

88
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: and I both looked at this and we're like, wait

89
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: a second, what's going on there? And you know, I

90
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 1: just thought it was my table was kind of like greasy.

91
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 1: Maybe there's a film on top of it that you know,

92
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 1: just wasn't agreeing with this thing. But no, apparently a

93
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 1: lot of people are having this problem. So already, a

94
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:36,599
Speaker 1: company called Pad and Quill have a full grain leather,

95
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: marine grade stitched coaster for your home pod that's nineteen

96
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 1: ninety five, and it is interesting. I will tell you this.

97
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: If you have the Google Home Max, it does ship

98
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,359
Speaker 1: with a little rubber pad that you put underneath it.

99
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: So I don't know, maybe they knew that theirs would

100
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 1: do the same thing. I'm just saying, there's comes with something.

101
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: So phone line is open. Three one zero five nine

102
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: four three zero zero three three one zero five nine

103
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 1: four three zero zero three. Don't be shy, go ahead,

104
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: give me a call. The phone line is open. You

105
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: don't have to show your face. All you gotta do

106
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 1: is call. Let's take some of your comments from the

107
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: live stream, and Carlos says, Apple's starting to look like

108
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 1: Apple from the eighties. We all know what happened then Ouch.

109
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 1: Peter says, Echo Dot stinks. I have it. I'd rather

110
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 1: have Google. You know. Look, Alexa does a lot of stuff,

111
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: but to me, personally, I think that Google is just

112
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: killing it when it comes to voice commands, and that's

113
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: just that's where my money is right now. Siri is

114
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 1: fantastic for simple tasks. I think the home Pod is

115
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: gonna be great if you're an Apple Music subscriber, but

116
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: otherwise I'm all about Google. And let's see where else

117
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,599
Speaker 1: do we have. Cynthia says, I wonder if it's from

118
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: the heat, so that could be it. It could be

119
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: from the heat, but I'm not sure. All right, let's

120
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: take our first caller seven one four. You're on with Rich.

121
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 3: Hey, I have a question about why s body Wi

122
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 3: Fi in your house?

123
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: Okay, who am I speaking with?

124
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 3: This is Debbie and you sent you replied to my

125
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 3: email today, which is great. So I had our cable

126
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 3: people come out and I was having a lot.

127
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 2: Of unal internet problems.

128
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 3: And issues from Wi Fi and I use everything Wi

129
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 3: Fi and I'll plug in, and they suggested to get

130
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 3: a mesh router. Yes, I don't even understand what it

131
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,039
Speaker 3: is or how it works.

132
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: Okay, well I'm glad. Who do you have for your cable?

133
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: Who's your Internet spectrum? Okay, so I have spectrum. I

134
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 1: have a mesh system in my house. It will change

135
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: your life. So here's what meshes versus the old way.

136
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: So the old way is you'd have that router that

137
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: they give you in the middle of your house. It

138
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: has a little may have an intenta on it. May

139
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: it used to. Nowadays they don't really have antennas. But

140
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 1: it would put out a Wi Fi signal and that

141
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: Wi Fi signal would be really good right by the box,

142
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: and then of course the further you get out from

143
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: that box, it just sort of dissipates. Right Well, right

144
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 1: then we came into the world where we had these

145
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: things called boosters, and the booster would take that little

146
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 1: signal and it would kind of boomerang it to other

147
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: parts of your house. But guess what if you're taking

148
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: a signal that's already not very strong and boomerang it

149
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: somewhere else, how do you think that signal is going

150
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 1: to be Debbie.

151
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have one of those, and it doesn't work

152
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 3: either exactly.

153
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: So now we have the new thing, which are the

154
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: mesh networks. And these mesh networks actually create one big

155
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 1: solid network around your house with the same strong signal

156
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: in every room. And so here's how they work. You

157
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 1: plug one in by your router. Then you plug another

158
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: one in in like let's say one room over or

159
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: two rooms over, whatever. As long as you can get

160
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 1: a strong signal to the next one, it'll work. Then

161
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: you put another one in another room of your house.

162
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: So I have about three or four of them in

163
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 1: my house. You can go crazy if you want, but

164
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: they do work really well. Once you get these things

165
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: in your house, they create one network that literally just

166
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 1: blankets your house in the same exact strong signal in

167
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 1: every corner. And so with Spectrum, if you're paying for

168
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: one hundred one hundred down, let's say usually it's either

169
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: one hundred or three hundred down. If you're really paying

170
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 1: for the high end Spectrum Internet, you will get that

171
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: one hundred down in every room of your house. So,

172
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: for instance, I'll do a quick speed test here on

173
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: my computer, and uh, let's see here. So uh, let's see.

174
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 1: I go to the website called fast dot com and

175
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: it's a great website to just kind of check your

176
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: internet and see how it is. And let's see what

177
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: I'm getting right now. So okay, since I'm on the

178
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 1: phone with you, it's not very good because I'm using

179
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: a lot of bandwidth right now. But normally what I

180
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: get is about one hundred in every room, which I'm

181
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 1: that's what I'm paying for in every room of my house.

182
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: So here's the ones I recommend. That's what you want

183
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 1: to That's what you called about.

184
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, I want to I want to know that.

185
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 3: And how many you recommend for a house that I

186
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 3: don't have a huge house, that's only like fifteen hundred

187
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 3: square feet.

188
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: Okay, so for fifteen hundred square feet, you're probably gonna

189
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: be just fine with three of these devices. So here's

190
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,439
Speaker 1: the deal. So there's a couple that you can get.

191
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:03,199
Speaker 1: So let's see. That big one is Netgear ORB and

192
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,599
Speaker 1: that one is really is really highly rated, so a

193
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: lot of people like that one. Let me let me

194
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 1: bring this up on here so you guys can see

195
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 1: what I'm doing here. Let me move that and there

196
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: it is. Okay, So here's Netgear Orby, and a lot

197
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: of people like this one. It's it's just it's just

198
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 1: super highly rated. And let's see how expensive it is.

199
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,840
Speaker 1: Because it is, they're not cheap, let's put it that way. So,

200
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: but I've seen these at like Costco, and you can

201
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: get them for a little bit cheaper. But this is

202
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,959
Speaker 1: the one. When I was in best By quizzing the guy,

203
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 1: he was telling me that this is the one that

204
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 1: everyone is buying, which is the Orby system. And let's

205
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: see how much their base their base system, which they

206
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: say covers up to thirty five hundred square feet, let's

207
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,559
Speaker 1: see how much they say their says, come on, it's again,

208
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: it's the Netgear Orby. That's two hundred dollars at Amazon.

209
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: So now here's the thing that's more expensive than your

210
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: typical router, which is probably like one hundred bucks. But

211
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: your internet is going to be so much better. Now

212
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: here's the other one.

213
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:03,440
Speaker 2: I like.

214
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,680
Speaker 1: Google Wi Fi is another one that's really good. And

215
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 1: the good news about Google Wi Fi is that you

216
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,319
Speaker 1: get a set of three for two hundred and fifty bucks. Okay,

217
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: and that works really well. But here's the problem. And

218
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 1: if you're listening or watching and you just think you

219
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 1: need one of these things. You just want to kind

220
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 1: of soup up your internet with just one. You can

221
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 1: get a one pack of the Google Wi Fi for

222
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 1: only one hundred and thirteen dollars. I know, only it's

223
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 1: still expensive. But what I have is the euro system,

224
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:37,239
Speaker 1: and Eero is pretty much the best because they invented

225
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,839
Speaker 1: the entire genre. Okay, so they're the guys that came

226
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: out with it first. But as you might expect, they're

227
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: the most expensive. They're four hundred dollars for three of them.

228
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 1: And so that's the one. I went home to my

229
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: I was at my in laws or my sister's house,

230
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: and my brother in law is playing something on Hulu

231
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: and I just it kept buffering, and I said, dude,

232
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: you gotta get this system. You gotta get Eero. We

233
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: went out. I went to Best Boy, he gave me

234
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: his credit card. I bought Euro I installed it in

235
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 1: his house. He could not be happier. It just works

236
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 1: so well. So those are the three I recommend, and

237
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: when you have it, you will be amazed.

238
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 3: Okay, awesome?

239
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 1: Any other questions about it?

240
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 3: And is that all I need? Do I have to

241
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 3: all forget a modem.

242
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,959
Speaker 1: Well, here's the deal. So Spectrum gives you the modem,

243
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: so that thing that connects you know, where your internet

244
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,079
Speaker 1: kind of your cable comes into your house. You know

245
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: what I mean, they will they give you that. Spectrum

246
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 1: supplies that, so this this will connect to the back

247
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,599
Speaker 1: of that right okay, And then what you want to

248
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 1: do with any of these systems once you install, like

249
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: a Mesh Wi Fi, you want to go into the

250
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,079
Speaker 1: settings on the Spectrum cable modem and you want to

251
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: turn off the Wi Fi that that emanates. So there

252
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 1: is a way you go on. You go on the

253
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: bottom of the cable modem. It will have a little

254
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 1: address like an access address. It usually starts with like

255
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 1: one nine to eight or something like that, or it

256
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 1: might be called just admin or something like that. You

257
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 1: type it into your web browser with a username and password.

258
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 1: It's also printed on the bottom of the cable modem,

259
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: and then you will log into that cable modem. I

260
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: know it sounds weird, but then you go in and

261
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 1: you look for the option to turn off the Wi

262
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,319
Speaker 1: Fi on the cable modem. You don't have to do that,

263
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: but the problem is if you don't, you're gonna have

264
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: a bunch of competing networks in your house, and you

265
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 1: don't want to do that. So it's much easier to

266
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 1: just turn that off. And that's that's the thing that

267
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 1: most people forget to do.

268
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:25,719
Speaker 3: Are these easy to set up?

269
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 1: Super easy? So do you have an iPhone or an Android?

270
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 3: I did iPhone?

271
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: Okay, So you go on your iPhone. You basically at

272
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 1: the iPhone, you download the app. It walks you through everything.

273
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 1: It'll say, okay, now turn off your cable modem. Okay,

274
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 1: now plug this in. Connect it to your cable modem.

275
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: Now turn on the cable modem. Now turn on the

276
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: little booster whatever you want to call it, the mesh

277
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 1: Wi Fi system. Then it'll say okay, Now take the

278
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 1: second one out of the box. Go put it in

279
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 1: a room that's you know, next door, and plug it

280
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 1: in and it'll find it. And then it'll say, okay, great,

281
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 1: we found it. We're going to test the speed. It

282
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: looks great. Now you can move on to the next

283
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: one and it will tell you if it's a good

284
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 1: placement or not. So you can start by placing it

285
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 1: sort of in, like you know, it's just somewhere where

286
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 1: you can kind of you just have to use your

287
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: imagination to kind of or I guess use your judgment,

288
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 1: I should say, to figure out where the best placement is.

289
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: But then the app will confirm if that's a good placement. Okay, cool, cool,

290
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 1: all right, Debbie call me back. All right, thank you.

291
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,679
Speaker 1: All right, let's look at some of the comments you

292
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 1: guys are saying on here. So uh Dhalia says, so

293
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: if I upgrade my old Spectrum router will have the

294
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,439
Speaker 1: Mesh network and be faster? Or will I have to

295
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: buy that separately? No, you do have to buy that separately.

296
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: So even if you get the better router from Spectrum,

297
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:42,959
Speaker 1: it will still not have the Mesh networking on it.

298
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 1: Alexander says, thanks for thefast dot com info, and Linda

299
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 1: says three for a small place, and sad and Joe

300
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,199
Speaker 1: says one hundred down or up? Oh man, Joe, I

301
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: wish I had a hundred up. No, one hundred down

302
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 1: is pretty standard with Spectrum, but upload, I think they

303
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 1: give you ten on the up. Eight when eight you're

304
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: on with Rich? Who am I speaking with?

305
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 4: Wow? This is Luana?

306
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: Luana? What's going on?

307
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 3: Well?

308
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,559
Speaker 4: You know I have he may have already answered this question.

309
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,719
Speaker 4: But I actually wrote it in a while back. It's

310
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 4: about the iPhone six and success, the new the battery

311
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 4: that you're supposed to get for twenty nine dollars. Okay,

312
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 4: I want to know if there was a deadline, and

313
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 4: also if I mean I'm bringing all those things on

314
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 4: Facebook about how you shouldn't take it in because you

315
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 4: have to have these qualifying things. I mean, how do

316
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 4: I know if I have those qualifying things? My phone

317
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 4: has been doing this thing where see it on Facebook

318
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 4: for example at completely lock.

319
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: No, you don't. You don't need any any qualifiers anymore

320
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: right now, so you just don't. It's it's twenty nine

321
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: dollars if you have an iPhone. Okay. So what you're

322
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: talking about is basically Apple came out and said, look,

323
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: we slow down older phones because as the battery degrades,

324
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 1: we want to make sure those phones have a smooth experience.

325
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 1: And people were outraged because like, wait a second, what

326
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 1: I can just speed up my phone if I replace

327
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: the battery I already paid to replace my it was

328
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: eighty bucks. And they said, okay, okay, okay, we'll replace

329
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: any battery for thirty dollars and your phone will speed up.

330
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 1: So that's what Luana is referring to. And so if

331
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 1: you have an iPhone se an, iPhone six six plus,

332
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: six S six s plus, seven seven plus, eight eight plus,

333
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 1: or iPhone ten, they will replace your battery for free.

334
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 4: So I don't have to go to the I could

335
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 4: go to the app store. I don't have to go

336
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 4: to the store where I bought the phone from for like,

337
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 4: you know, I don't know where I go.

338
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: No, you just go right to the Just go right

339
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: to the Apple store. Now you want to make an appointment,

340
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: that's for sure. And here's the other part. I'm getting

341
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 1: emails from folks that have tried this, and they said

342
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: that it is they're backlogged so that you may not

343
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: get it right away, you know. So just go into

344
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:47,840
Speaker 1: the store and see what they say. Now you can

345
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 1: also do it. You can send it in. Now I've

346
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: done this with my wife's Apple Watch. I could not

347
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 1: believe how fast it was. I went online, I said

348
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 1: her Apple Watch had a problem. They sent me a

349
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 1: box to put her Apple Watch in. I put the

350
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: Apple Watch in that box, and no joke, it must

351
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: have been not the next day, but the next day

352
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: her Apple Watch was back or replacement. I couldn't tell

353
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: if it was new or refurbished. I couldn't tell. But

354
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 1: you can also do that with your iPhone and that

355
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 1: might be easier depending on where you live and how

356
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 1: much backlog there is at your Apple store, you know

357
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 1: what I mean?

358
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, okay, well okay, I'm sorry. What was the

359
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 4: highest the lowest ever you went to? Because I have

360
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 4: a fun phone? Who has a iPhone five? Is that

361
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 4: not eligible for?

362
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 5: About?

363
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 1: iPhone five is not eligible? Here's the phones right here,

364
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 1: iPhone se six basically iPhone se and then six and up,

365
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 1: so iPhone five that's not part of the program right now,

366
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 1: so they can they might be able to replace the

367
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: battery on that, but it's it's eighty dollars.

368
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 4: So okay, very good, thank you very much.

369
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: All right, Luana, thanks so much for listening today or watching.

370
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 1: Appreciate it.

371
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 4: Thank you, thank you.

372
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, there you have it. Three one zero

373
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 1: five nine four three zero zero three. Lots of questions,

374
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 1: let's see. Rachel says, brilliant. I learned so much listening

375
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 1: to your responses. Well, thank you, Rachel, and Alina says

376
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 1: Apple wants money, you know they do. I mean, there

377
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: is an argument for saying that Apple should be giving

378
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 1: these battery replacements for free. But let's be honest. If

379
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 1: you if Apple said we're gonna do these battery replacements

380
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,640
Speaker 1: for free, can you imagine how many people would take advantage.

381
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 1: Already everyone's taking advantage of these these battery replacements at

382
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:27,920
Speaker 1: thirty dollars. Imagine if they were free. Now here's the

383
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: other thing Apple with the new iOS eleven point three,

384
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: which is gonna come out soon, They're gonna give you

385
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 1: the option to turn off the throttling of your phone.

386
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,679
Speaker 1: So if you have one of these phones with an

387
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: older battery, you can take the risk of saying, look,

388
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: I'm okay with my phone maybe randomly restarting or not,

389
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,400
Speaker 1: or you know, apps crashing randomly. Because I will take

390
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,679
Speaker 1: that risk, you can You'll be able to turn off

391
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 1: that feature in the settings. All right, Three two three,

392
00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:00,160
Speaker 1: you're on with Rich Who am I speaking with? Oh?

393
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 6: You're speaking with Jake.

394
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: Jake, What's what's on your mind? Yeah?

395
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 6: I got a pretty question that I was thinking you

396
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,679
Speaker 6: might have a good opinion on. So I have an

397
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:18,639
Speaker 6: original Apple Watch, okay, and the battery it's getting super

398
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 6: old on it. I mean it's runs out probably by

399
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 6: like seven o'clock at night. Especially if I work out

400
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,160
Speaker 6: it's gone and really use.

401
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:28,120
Speaker 2: It for fitness all the time.

402
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,159
Speaker 6: Do you think it's better to wait until they come

403
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,640
Speaker 6: out with a new one or just upgraded?

404
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 1: Now, hold on, let me let me get this website

405
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,880
Speaker 1: that I like, and I can tell you. So I'm

406
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 1: going to a website called mac Rumors and they do this.

407
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: Have you looked at this thing? So? This is really cool.

408
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 1: It's basically website that tells you when the last time

409
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,880
Speaker 1: Apple products came out. So if you buy an Apple product,

410
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,119
Speaker 1: like me, like I'll buy something, and you know that

411
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,360
Speaker 1: there's a life cycle basically a year, maybe a year

412
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: and a half or two years, And with the Apple

413
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: Watch so far, it's been about I think about a

414
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 1: year cycle for each one of the upgrades. And so

415
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,879
Speaker 1: if you have the original one, which is going on,

416
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:15,680
Speaker 1: I think about three years old now at this point,

417
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: which is crazy to think that they've been out that long. Yeah,

418
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: it's and so here's the question. So the last one.

419
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: I'm looking at this website, and according to this website,

420
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: the last time they released a Apple Watch was September

421
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, one hundred and fifty three days ago. According

422
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 1: to the website, the average is four hundred and forty

423
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 1: five days, which means you're literally right in the middle

424
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: of a cycle. So yeah, and they're not selling the

425
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 1: Apple Watch Series two anymore. They're basically doing either the

426
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 1: one or the three. And I highly recommend you going

427
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 1: with the three, by the way, because if especially if

428
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: you're using it for anything sports related, the three is

429
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: way better because it has a lot more it's got

430
00:19:56,040 --> 00:20:00,080
Speaker 1: a lot more sensitivity on it with the tracking and

431
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: the everything is just way better. So should you, Well,

432
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 1: here's an option.

433
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 6: But I guess my thing is, like, do you think

434
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 6: they're going to come out like with a smaller version

435
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 6: because they have the same it's the same body style

436
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 6: they've had basically since since I got it three years ago.

437
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 6: You know, do you think they're going to dramatically upgrade

438
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 6: it just from what you your opinion?

439
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 5: I guess I.

440
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 1: Don't think so, because here's the thing, Like already, when

441
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 1: I have meetings with Apple, they call it the iconic

442
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 1: styling of the Watch, and they really pride themselves on

443
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 1: the fact that the it really hasn't changed much in

444
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 1: three years, which I got to give them credit for.

445
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 1: In fact, the Apple Watch Series three is actually like

446
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,640
Speaker 1: a millimeter thicker than the old one, but that's it.

447
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 1: It's like almost identical, even with the cellular inside. And

448
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: that means that if you have a strap that you

449
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: like or any accessories that you like, they all work

450
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 1: the same, which is really nice because we hate when

451
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: they change stuff just to change it. So I don't

452
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 1: think it's going to be that crazy. I think I

453
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 1: think now's the time to buy. If you're telling me

454
00:20:58,320 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: you do a lot of this stuff and you're using

455
00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 1: it for sports, I think that you're gonna want want

456
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 1: to have the new version just because now here's the

457
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 1: other thing. They just came out with a refurbished Apple

458
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:13,159
Speaker 1: Watch Series three, so if you're into that, those just

459
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: went on sale like literally, I think today. So if

460
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: you see this, I'm looking at the price on that

461
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: two hundred and seventy nine dollars, which is fifty dollars off. Now, yeah,

462
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 1: that's not that I guess.

463
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:27,439
Speaker 6: Then they came out of something in September that was

464
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 6: just spectacular, then I would feel bad about upgrading it again.

465
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: Exactly, and you can always The beauty about Apple products

466
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: is that you can always flip them on eBay. So

467
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 1: even if you spend two seventy nine on this watch

468
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: today and something comes out in September, someone out there

469
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: is gonna want to buy this watch from you for

470
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 1: one hundred dollars. I mean, even my friend who just

471
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: broke his you know, Apple wanted like two hundred and

472
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 1: thirty dollars to fix it, and he's like, no way,

473
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: it's a Series one, and so he's gonna just sell

474
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,199
Speaker 1: it on eBay. Someone's gonna buy it for the parts

475
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: or repair it themselves and flip it. So there's always

476
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: that's the beauty of Apple products. There's always this great

477
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 1: secondary market for them. So I would check out the refirmation.

478
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,159
Speaker 6: And then also, yeah, it's like you I really do

479
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,239
Speaker 6: use the watch. It's not just you know, I use

480
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 6: it for fitness. I don't really you know, it's not

481
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 6: like a gimmicky product. Is something part of my life.

482
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:17,919
Speaker 1: So you know, I think the Apple Watch is probably

483
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: I mean, it is the best wearable out there. It's

484
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 1: it's just unbelievable. My wife did not want one, and

485
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: I was like, look, you're going to get one, and

486
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 1: and she's like, I don't want to wear that and

487
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: she can't go a day without it now, I mean

488
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 1: she absolutely, she loves every aspect of it, especially to me.

489
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 1: It's a fitness tracker, that's what. It's the best fitness

490
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 1: tracker out there. And closing those rings just feel so great,

491
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 1: you know, totally.

492
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, Like I turn off a lot of the other

493
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 6: features on it because it's just because the fitnessing, the

494
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,679
Speaker 6: fitness tracking is so good on it that.

495
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, when I'm when I'm wearing mine, I will I

496
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 1: will just have the fitness tracking and the only other

497
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 1: thing I do is text messages and that's it, you know,

498
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:56,640
Speaker 1: any messages, you know, not no, notif it. I don't

499
00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 1: get notifications for Instagram or Facebook or anything. And phone

500
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 1: calls obviously, so that's nice.

501
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean Mine the series the well is it?

502
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:11,200
Speaker 6: The series won the first one, I guess ye original. Yeah,

503
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 6: I mean it's not even usable for that because it's

504
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 6: so slow. Yeah, the fitness track it still works, still

505
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 6: works well, but everything else is like not really usable.

506
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, It's gotten a lot faster over the years, and

507
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 1: I still don't think even with the series three, there's

508
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 1: times and I still think it's a little laggy. But

509
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,679
Speaker 1: you know, it is still the best out there. Believe me,

510
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 1: it's still it's still pretty amazing. So I think you'll

511
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 1: be very happy with it. And you know, I don't

512
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: know what the deal is with your you know, how

513
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,199
Speaker 1: much you want to spend. But the LTE inside, like

514
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 1: it's it gets kind of expensive though, so I don't

515
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: really recommend it unless you really truly need it, Like

516
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: if you're running all the time, like twenty miles, you know,

517
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: in the middle of nowhere, and you want to make

518
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 1: sure you're you know, and you don't want to carry

519
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 1: your phone. But otherwise the lt is kind of like,

520
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 1: don't really need it, and it's ten more dollars a month.

521
00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 6: Yeah no, but I am somewhat addicted to running, you know,

522
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,639
Speaker 6: you know, with the watch, and like not having to

523
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 6: carry my phone is really appealing.

524
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 1: Having music and yeah, you know, and so but here's

525
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 1: the thing you have to keep in mind. So you know,

526
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,159
Speaker 1: if you have Apple Music, if you're already paying for that,

527
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 1: that's fine. That's ten bucks a month, and it makes

528
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 1: it easy to put the music on your phone. But

529
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 1: the LTE is really nice because when I run with

530
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 1: it without my phone, it is those the Apple Watch

531
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 1: combined with the AirPods is pretty much to me. I'm

532
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 1: a runner. That's the perfect run. I mean, it doesn't

533
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 1: get any better than that. You're lightweight, you know what

534
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: I mean?

535
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, no, I get it.

536
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 1: And if you ever fell in a ditch, you can

537
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 1: call someone for help. I'm like, if you had your yeah, exactly. Yeah,

538
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: all right, Jake, thanks so much for calling in appreciate it.

539
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, thanks rich all right, good luck?

540
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: All right, guys. So the website, if you didn't see it,

541
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 1: there was a buyer's guide dot mac rumors dot com.

542
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 1: So if you're ever going to buy an Apple product,

543
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 1: always check out this website because it will tell you

544
00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: when the last time something how do I assume out here?

545
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 1: Here there we go. It'll tell you the last time

546
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 1: that something was made new, you know, the last time

547
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,400
Speaker 1: that Apple came out with something. So if we look

548
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: at iPhone here, we can see iPhone eight neutral, iPhone

549
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,199
Speaker 1: ten by now se don't buy. So it's just a

550
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 1: great resource for you guys, if you're looking to buy

551
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 1: Apple products. All right, Cody says, you have children, Yes,

552
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: I do. I am just wondering. I've got so many

553
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: things on my screen here I'm just wondering, what's the

554
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 1: best children's tablet? What do you think would be best

555
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,359
Speaker 1: for my children? So here's the deal. I know you

556
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,199
Speaker 1: don't want to hear this, and I don't want to

557
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 1: make this an Apple show because it's not. And believe me,

558
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 1: I'm very platform agnostic. I'm not the Apple fanboy. I

559
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: like certain things about Apple, I dislike certain things about Apple,

560
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 1: and I love a lot of things about Android. But

561
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: I will tell you, when it comes to tablets, the

562
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: best tablet out there is the iPad Mini. For your kid.

563
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 1: You're going to get the best selection of apps. It's

564
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,159
Speaker 1: the easiest one to use. You can set restrictions on

565
00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,159
Speaker 1: it so they can't download stuff and do things. I

566
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: know a lot of people like the Amazon Fire tablets

567
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 1: for kids. I got those for my kids and I

568
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: had them for no joke, less than twenty four hours

569
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 1: before I sent them back because they're just not that intuitive.

570
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 1: And I know a lot of parents you don't want

571
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: to hear that, but I'm telling you save yourself a hassle.

572
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,719
Speaker 1: The best apps and the easiest use is on the

573
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,400
Speaker 1: iPad and that's what I got my kids. I put

574
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: them in an otter box they've had them for I

575
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 1: bought them the day they came out when Apple announced

576
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: the new ones because I wanted to make sure I

577
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: hopped on that life cycle. Of That's the thing. The

578
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 1: longer you wait to buy Apple products, the more you're

579
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: kind of dancing with the the devil, so to say,

580
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,360
Speaker 1: Like Jake is wondering, Hey, do I get this thing

581
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,919
Speaker 1: now or do I wait? Because you always want to

582
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: buy it, like right when it comes out, because you

583
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 1: know something else is coming down the pipeline in a

584
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 1: year and you don't want to have something old. John.

585
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: Back to our last conversation, why not Fitbit instead of

586
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,880
Speaker 1: Apple Watch for a fitness tracker? Yes, I'm wearing one

587
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 1: right now. I love the fitbit as well. I think

588
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 1: that that's up against the Apple Watch, your other best option.

589
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 1: So the Fippit is fantastic, and the beauty of the

590
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: Fippit is that it also tracks your sleep, something that

591
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 1: the Apple Watch does not do. And so that's the

592
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,879
Speaker 1: thing you need to know, is that I love the

593
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: sleep tracking on the Apple Watch. That is, I'm sorry

594
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,399
Speaker 1: on the fipbit, and that's something that the Apple Watch

595
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 1: just does not deliver. All Right, Eight, you're on with

596

Speaker 1: Rich eight eight? Who am I speaking with?

00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 1: your tablet have a wireless and internet connection on it?

617
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 5: Yeah?

618
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 1: It does, it does okay, And so is it a

619
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 1: cellular connection? Like? Do you pay for it every month?

620
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 5: Yeah?

621
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:55,000

00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 5: I pay at and.

00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 4: T you verse?

624
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: Okay? You pay you verse. Okay, all right, so here's

625
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 1: here's what I think you need to do. Download an app.

626
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: It's called Pulse Pulse SMS okay, and there's a couple

627
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 1: of these, but this one I like the best, and

628
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 1: it will allow you to basically sync up your text

629
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 1: messages between your computer, tablet and your phone. So you

630
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 1: install it on your cell phone, you're gonna have to

631
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 1: go through a little sign up process and if you

632
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: want to access all your messages everywhere, they do charge you.

633
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,240
Speaker 1: I think it's let me see how much it is.

634
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 1: It's not expensive, but it's it is a little cost.

635
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 1: Let me tell you. So it's uh, let's see for

636
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: the year. It's six dollars for the year. Now I

637
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 1: paid for the whole. I paid for the lifetime, which

638
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: is eleven dollars. You never have to pay again. But

639
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 1: you can try it out or just try the free trial.

640
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 1: You get seven days free and then you can go

641
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 1: you can go dollar a month and two dollars for

642
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 1: three months. But this is for Android only. And what

643
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: you do is you do you have an Android phone?

644
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 1: You said you did, right? Yeah?

645
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 5: Tablet?

646
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, So you install it on your phone first,

647
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 1: sync it up. Then you install the same program on

648
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 1: your tablet, you log in with your same user name,

649
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 1: and all your text messages will be on the same

650
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 1: at both It'll all be synced up. So whether you

651
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 1: whether you send a text on your tablet or on

652
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 1: your phone, next time you go to your tablet or phone,

653
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 1: the message will be there in both places. And it's

654
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 1: really easy, it's really slick, and I think you're gonna

655
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 1: like it because it's the easiest way to do that.

656
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 1: So okay, that's what I recommend. So again, it's called

672
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,360

Speaker 1: viruses on Apple at all. And afternoon Rich Tom says,

676
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 1: screens are susceptible to burn in. Really depends on the

677
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 1: type of wallpaper you use. If you don't want that

678
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 1: to happen, just be careful with any wallpaper that has

679
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 1: bright white in it, and you know, and change your

680

695
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 1: what's going on?

696
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 2: I had a question about the sink. I have the

697
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 2: Ford Sinc Three in my edge, and when I connect

698
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 2: my phone sometimes the library, my music library will only

699
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 2: show the recently music that I have added. It won't

700
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 2: list all my artists.

701
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 1: Do I have to do?

702
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 2: I have to like update the sync as well, because

703
00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 2: I have tried that and it just it's a continuously

704
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 2: you know, like how it's what do you call it

705
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 2: buffering or you know the cricle keeps going.

706
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: What? So this is music? This is your own personal

707
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 1: music like MP three's.

708
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 2: No you know, through iTunes, through my iPhone.

709
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 1: Oh this is iPhone? Okay, interesting, so it's iPhone. That

710
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 1: So when you plug in your phone to your car,

711
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 1: you know, and if it's displaying the information on screen,

712
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 1: it's usually kind of pulling that information first, and then

713
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 1: you know, it's I guess to use like a computer term.

714
00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 1: It's like redrawing, you know, every every so often. It's

715
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 1: not every single time, but usually when you change menus

716
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:38,480
Speaker 1: or something like that. So you're saying when you plug

717
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:40,760
Speaker 1: it in, it's only showing you a selection of your music.

718
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, it goes automatically to recently added music, and I

719
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 2: mean I added that music months ago. It doesn't really

720
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 2: it's not really updated because like I'll add maybe van

721
00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:01,479
Speaker 2: Halen two days ago, and it won't show there. But

722
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 2: it always goes to that screen. And then when I

723
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:10,840
Speaker 2: go back to where it says artists, it doesn't list everything.

724
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:15,399
Speaker 2: I'll have to like keep going back and then eventually right, it'll.

725
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,839
Speaker 1: So right and eventually and that's kind of what I'm

726
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 1: talking about with this redraw. So it's not it's not

727
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,360
Speaker 1: it's not pulling the data from your iPod or your phone.

728
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,000
Speaker 1: I guess it is these days. Every single time. It's

729
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 1: kind of doing a refresh once in a while and

730
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: I think, oh, how old is the car? How many

731
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: is it? SYNC three or what? Yeah?

732
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 2: Sink three interesting last year?

733
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it should it should be pulling that

734
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 1: for that data more often. I I, Yeah, I don't

735
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,920
Speaker 1: know why it's not doing that. I think that it

736
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:48,320
Speaker 1: could be is a software up to date on the SYNC.

737
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 2: I That's what I was wondering too. I mean, because

738
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 2: like I I there's a when you go through the menu,

739
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 2: there's a part where it says, you know, software update,

740
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 2: and I put stat and like I said, it just

741
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:06,320
Speaker 2: three buffers. I don't my my internet isn't that great

742
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,799
Speaker 2: here because we live out, you know, kind of out, So.

743
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,359
Speaker 1: Well I would I would bring it. I would, Well,

744
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 1: I'd go online first off and just search your what

745
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 1: the what the number is on your sync, like the software,

746
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,759
Speaker 1: and see if there's a new or update. These car

747
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,879
Speaker 1: companies they're not they're not coming out with stuff as

748
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 1: fast as like say Apple for the iPhone or Android,

749
00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 1: but they are coming up with updates, and I know

750
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 1: with sinc Apple Ford has definitely been trying to up

751
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: the ante with that. So I would check number one

752
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,319
Speaker 1: to see if your software is up to date number two.

753
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,279
Speaker 1: If that is, I would maybe do a reset of

754
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:41,760
Speaker 1: your settings on your sink just to kind of clear

755
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 1: everything out, whatever you know, cash it has on there.

756
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:46,839
Speaker 1: I would just get rid of that and start over

757
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: and plug your phone in and just see what happens.

758
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,319
Speaker 1: But it sounds like there's some kind of database that

759
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: it's pulling from that's just a little bit out of date,

760
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,000
Speaker 1: and I think it needs to be updated and you'll

761
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 1: figure it out that way, all right, all right.

762
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 2: Thank you so much. I want to enjoy your info

763
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:03,960
Speaker 2: and thank you very much.

764
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 1: Have a good day, all right, Greg, I'll talk to

765
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,920

766
00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:12,160

00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:25,399
Speaker 1: And it's so annoying because all Apple has to do

771
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:30,840
Speaker 1: is write a program for Windows computers and Android phones

772
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 1: for I Message, and they would rule messaging across the world.

773
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 1: A well, okay, not across the world because a lot

774
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: of people use WhatsApp in other parts of the world,

775
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,360
Speaker 1: but okay, fine, they would rule messaging in the US.

776
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 1: Do you know how many people are split families with

777
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: iPhone and Android or Windows PC and iPhone and you

778
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,840
Speaker 1: can't send texts. Apple loves to keep people locked in

779
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 1: their little ecosystem, and it's so frustrating because the average

780
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 1: come on, You're just like, wait, what you're looking for this?

781
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 1: Why where's this solution? It makes sense? Why would they

782
00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:07,399
Speaker 1: not do this in this day and age? Everything works

783
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 1: everywhere except for Apple, So Alexander, No, they do not.

784
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 1: And yes, I'm very annoyed at that, because you know,

785
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 1: it's just come on, It's one way that they keep

786
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:20,799
Speaker 1: people on iPhone. People love I meassage. I message is fantastic,

787
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 1: it works great, it does the job. It sinks across

788
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 1: your computer if you have a Mac and a tablet

789
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 1: and an iPhone. But they need to make it for

790
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 1: other platforms. So no, sorry, and says I have an

791
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:33,319
Speaker 1: eight year old Dell. When I turn it on, I

792
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 1: get a flashing orange light. Is it worth repairing eight

793
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:39,759
Speaker 1: year old Dell? No? I don't think so. I would.

794
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,760
Speaker 1: I would put that on eBay, make sure your personal

795
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 1: data is off of it, put on eBay, or give

796
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:48,479
Speaker 1: it to goodwill. Let's see. Gladys says, what's a good

797
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:53,319
Speaker 1: antenna for antenna TV? The one I like is from

798
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 1: Mohu Mohu, so if you go to Mohu, I'll bring

799
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 1: this up here. Let's see here. I have so many

800
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 1: things on my screen. I keep saying that, but yeah,

801
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 1: so let's see Moho Glide. So originally I like the

802
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 1: Mohu Leaf, which is their kind of inexpensive one. But

803
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: let's see. This one is the Moho Leaf Glide. That's

804
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,880
Speaker 1: kind of their high end model, and it's ninety dollars.

805
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 1: But I'm telling you you will love it. It will

806
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 1: pick up so many, so many stations. And I just

807
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: did a test with this thing. I'm gonna do a

808
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: story on this soon, but I was just testing out

809
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 1: some of these antennas and Moho I've loved for a

810
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 1: long time. If you want, you can go with the

811
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: Glide that's their high end one. If you don't like that,

812
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 1: you can go with a lower end, which is the

813
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 1: Basic that's like thirty dollars. It really depends where you

814
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,680
Speaker 1: live and what kind of signal you can get. So

815
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 1: this one is thirty dollars. And these are all on

816
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:54,319
Speaker 1: Amazon as well, but search Moho mohu. All right, let's

817
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:57,360
Speaker 1: see who else has a question here. Dave says, Apple

818
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 1: TV or Google Chrome Cast. Oh my gosh, I okay,

819
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:03,920
Speaker 1: So I'm partial to Apple TV if you have a

820
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 1: family or other people in your home, because it's way

821
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,799
Speaker 1: easier to navigate on screen with the remote control. If

822
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,960
Speaker 1: you're single, you don't have anyone else in your household,

823
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,799
Speaker 1: go with the Google Chrome Cast. It's way cheaper and

824
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 1: you use your phone to control it. And I love

825
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:22,319
Speaker 1: the backdrop of the pictures on Google Chrome Cast and

826
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 1: it's way cheaper. So that's kind of my one two

827
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:30,280
Speaker 1: with the Apple TV or Google Chrome Cast. Let's see.

828
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 1: Connie says, why does the iPhone ten need to have

829
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 1: the battery changed out? Has there been a problem with them? No,

830
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 1: there's no problem with the iPhone ten. They're just they

831
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,719
Speaker 1: just put on the list in case you wanted to

832
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 1: do that. Let's see here. Becky says, can I listen

833
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:51,240
Speaker 1: to Apple Music on my Google Mini? Not really, not easily.

834
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you can bluetooth it from your phone to

835
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:56,879
Speaker 1: the Apple to the Google Mini. But here's the deal.

836
00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:00,360
Speaker 1: If you have Apple Music, if you're already subscribed to it,

837
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: the Mini will work with it. But it's not a

838
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,839
Speaker 1: pretty setup. It's not as easy as it would be

839
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:09,440
Speaker 1: to have something like Spotify or Pandora or Google Play Music.

840
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 1: It will work, but it's not as pretty. Debbie says,

841
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 1: how can you clear personal data from your laptop easily

842
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,760
Speaker 1: to sell? Oh, it's not easy. There is an app

843
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,319
Speaker 1: that does it, and the name of it is Oh

844
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:27,319
Speaker 1: my gosh, let's see clear Personal I gotta remember it's

845
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: like DCSCC or something, and I tried it, you know

846
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 1: what I mean, and it was really tough for me

847
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:38,759
Speaker 1: to do, so I really can't. Yeah, I would say

848
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:42,080
Speaker 1: if you have Windows, if you have the new version

849
00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:45,719
Speaker 1: of Windows, you can go into reset this PC and

850
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 1: remove everything. If you have Windows ten, it will do that.

851
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 1: But if you have an old version of Windows, it's

852
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,719
Speaker 1: not as easy as that. And if you have a

853
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 1: Mac computer, it's actually pretty easy. You can just go

854
00:40:55,800 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 1: into the utilities and clean the Mac and have to

855
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 1: write over the data. Because even if you just format

856
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,320
Speaker 1: a computer, someone can go in there that's really smart

857
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 1: and still recover that data. Because here's what's happening. Let's

858
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 1: say you have files in a filing cabinet, right and

859
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 1: you want to give that filing cabinet away. You can

860
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 1: mix up all the files and put them all in

861
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: different places, but they're still going to be in there,

862
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 1: so you'd have to actually, you know, basically wipe out

863
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:28,400
Speaker 1: those files and get them. That's sound a very good analogy.

864
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:30,720
Speaker 1: It's a very tough analogy. But basically, when you write,

865
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,000
Speaker 1: when you wipe, when you format a hard drive, it's

866
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:36,319
Speaker 1: not removing the files. It's just removing the instructions on

867
00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:38,919
Speaker 1: how to find them, and so the system doesn't see them.

868
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:41,279
Speaker 1: But if someone's smart enough, they can go in there

869
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 1: and not use those instructions and still see the files.

870
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 1: So you do want to clear your personal information. Let's see.

871
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:54,320
Speaker 1: Oh good question. Is it healthy having all these RF

872
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 1: transmitting antennas in your home? That is a very good question,

873
00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:59,880
Speaker 1: something I struggle with all the time, and I do

874
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 1: not have a good answer to that. So it's one

875
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 1: of the reasons why I'm not such a big fan

876
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 1: of the Apple Watch with the LT I'm a fan

877
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 1: of it, but I worry about it because it's another

878
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 1: thing that's just radiating into my body. But I have

879
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 1: no good date on it. All right, three two three?

880
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:19,439
Speaker 1: You're on with Rich? Who am I speaking with? Ope?

881
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:21,960
Speaker 1: Did I lose you? Three two three? Oh? Hold on,

882
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,800
Speaker 1: let me see something here, let's see. Oh you know

883
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:26,880
Speaker 1: you're there? Okay, I don't hear you. Okay, well we're
