WEBVTT - Stuck at home show: New Apple iPad Pro, cheaper MacBook Air 0:00:12.800 --> 0:00:15.840 New products from Apple, including a new iPad Pro and 0:00:16.000 --> 0:00:20.600 a new MacBook Air. Embracing our new lives at home 0:00:21.200 --> 0:00:25.600 due to coronavirus, plus your tech questions answered. What's going on? 0:00:25.640 --> 0:00:28.120 I'm Rich Damiro and this is Rich on Tech, the 0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:30.400 podcast where I talk about the tech stuff I think 0:00:30.640 --> 0:00:34.040 you should know about and I answer the questions that 0:00:34.080 --> 0:00:36.800 you send me. My name is Rich Dmiro, tech reporter 0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:40.000 at KTLA Channel five in Los Angeles. Joining me is 0:00:40.880 --> 0:00:46.440 producer Megan. How's it going? Let me bring this down 0:00:46.560 --> 0:00:47.680 and bring you up? 0:00:47.760 --> 0:00:50.920 Hello, you know it's going. 0:00:51.080 --> 0:00:55.240 This is an interesting new normal that we're all just 0:00:55.760 --> 0:00:56.840 you know, adjusting to. 0:00:57.560 --> 0:01:02.160 Yeah, kind of crazy. I'm in my home, Megan is 0:01:02.160 --> 0:01:05.280 in her home trying to do this. We're also Facebook 0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:08.520 living this, so we are saying hello to everyone that's 0:01:08.560 --> 0:01:11.920 listening on Facebook Live that or I should say, watching 0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:13.920 on Facebook Live. And of course I just heard the 0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:17.760 little comments. So every time someone does one of those 0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:22.959 little like thumbs up, you hear it on the show anyway, 0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:26.440 So that's fun. Yeah, there it goes again. So I 0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:28.840 got to figure out how to get that off anyway. Oh, 0:01:29.000 --> 0:01:32.440 mute sound effects. There we go. So, how are you adjusting. 0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:35.840 We are working halfway from the station, halfway home. It's 0:01:36.000 --> 0:01:39.520 very interesting for sure. Oh no, they're still there. And 0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:42.240 I don't know what to say. I mean, I've got 0:01:42.240 --> 0:01:44.840 my kids at home, I've got my wife at home, 0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:49.240 and it's pretty wild. It's like a very different experience. 0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:54.000 Yeah, and I feel like every day it's changing. We're 0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:57.400 just like, you know, it's just all so crazy. 0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:00.440 Yeah, it is crazy. And your whole family home, I'm 0:02:00.480 --> 0:02:06.000 guessing as well, Yes they are. And then so you know, 0:02:06.040 --> 0:02:10.960 and now California is on this crazy like shutdown. So 0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:13.160 we were watching that on TV yesterday. I mean, it's 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:19.080 just every day it seems like something else changes. Let's 0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:22.280 get to the first story. New MacBook Air. So I 0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:25.640 know that tech news has taken sort of a backseat 0:02:25.720 --> 0:02:28.440 to you know, this crazy virus that is, you know, 0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:31.440 making its way through all of the world. But there 0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:34.720 was some tech news this week and Apple released a 0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:37.280 new MacBook Air. Now, normally we'd go up to Cooper 0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:40.520 Tino for a big event and you would, you know, 0:02:40.600 --> 0:02:42.840 have Tim Cook up on stage. None of that happened 0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:46.040 because guess what, we're in crazy time. So they just 0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:48.760 put out a press release. They put out the MacBook 0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:51.880 Air and it's now ninety nine dollars, so got a 0:02:51.919 --> 0:02:55.079 one hundred dollars price cut, it got two times of performance, 0:02:55.440 --> 0:02:58.400 a new keyboard, and twice the storage. So that's the headline, 0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:01.160 and realistically, I think they did a great job of 0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:05.720 making this a computer that is now very desirable for 0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:09.920 a student or a college student, because that price point 0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:12.160 is nine ninety nine, which one hundred dollars cheaper than before. 0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:15.960 Before it was eleven hundred. And the reality is anything 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:19.800 over one thousand, mentally is really tough to comprehend, and 0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:22.880 so nine ninety nine is just a nice magic number, right, 0:03:22.919 --> 0:03:24.960 That's why everything is ninety nine cents, you know, three 0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:28.160 ninety nine. But if you're a student, you can actually 0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:30.880 get this for eight ninety nine, so nine hundred bucks, 0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:32.760 and I get it. That's way more expensive than like 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:36.160 your typical five hundred dollars Windows computer, but you're getting 0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:38.760 a Mac and it's really nice magic keyboard, which means 0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:41.040 the keyboard is going to be way better than before. 0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:44.400 It's the keyboard that I use on my current MacBook Pro, 0:03:44.560 --> 0:03:47.520 which is the Magic keyboard, and it's really good. And 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:50.080 it also has double storage, so two hundred and fifty 0:03:50.080 --> 0:03:53.600 six versus one twenty eight. And I think that's all 0:03:53.640 --> 0:03:55.480 you need to know about it. So there you have it, 0:03:55.560 --> 0:04:00.360 all right, Producer Megan, it is time for your first question. 0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:06.160 Okay, So our first question comes from Claudia Hi Rich. 0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:09.800 I saw your story about expanded sell and internet service 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:12.840 during the next two months due to COVID nineteen. But 0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:16.080 what about security? What should we be looking for to 0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:20.120 be safe online? Especially since schools are now online and 0:04:20.200 --> 0:04:24.200 most of our activities exercise to shopping are online. How 0:04:24.240 --> 0:04:26.640 do we not become a victim during this time of 0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:29.440 increased accessibility and increased use. 0:04:29.880 --> 0:04:32.880 Okay, great question, and this is something that I actually 0:04:33.360 --> 0:04:36.080 am working up a story on. But yes, everyone's working 0:04:36.120 --> 0:04:40.919 at home and this company, my Fi, they have some 0:04:41.040 --> 0:04:44.440 executives that I asked this question too because of your 0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:48.920 email and a couple things. Number one tips to secure 0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:52.120 your home network, They say Wi Fi access points. You 0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:55.320 know the SSID like the thing you connect to. They 0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:58.359 say to change your settings to hide your SSID. So 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:00.599 normally in your house at broadcasts, if you go on 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.960 your phone and you look at all the kind of 0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:07.600 networks around you, you can see all your neighbor's networks. 0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:10.280 So of course that's much easier to hack because now 0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:12.280 you can just connect to that network if you can 0:05:12.320 --> 0:05:14.440 figure out the password, and now you're on the network. 0:05:14.680 --> 0:05:19.160 So if you hide that SSID, that means that hackers 0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:21.680 can't see your network. And that doesn't mean they can't 0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:24.360 detect it, but they can't see it, and so that 0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:26.960 makes it a little bit tougher for them. Obviously, you 0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:29.880 want to use Wi Fi Protected Access, so WPA or 0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:32.680 WPA two if you haven't done that. Make sure that 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:35.240 your password on your Wi Fi network is long and 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:38.159 random so it can't be cracked. Do not use the 0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:42.120 default password. And this is my favorite. Use a guest 0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:45.440 network because when I have babysitters come to the house, 0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:48.320 I have them connect to the guest network. The reason 0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:50.560 I do that is because they don't have access to 0:05:50.640 --> 0:05:53.120 all of the things on my network, which are the 0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:56.560 smart lights and the computers and the storage, and I 0:05:56.600 --> 0:05:58.599 don't not that I don't trust them, but it's just 0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:01.719 easier also to manage those guests that are on your network. 0:06:01.800 --> 0:06:06.040 So that is my recommendation, as well as the recommendation 0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:12.039 from this company, which is let's see in Sego in 0:06:12.160 --> 0:06:15.080 sego slash my fi and the other thing that a 0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:17.000 lot of people are wondering, do they need a VPN 0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:19.599 when they're working at home? Don't necessarily need a VPN. 0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:22.680 If your company requires it, obviously you should be using that, 0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:25.520 and in many cases you can't access your company's files 0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:28.440 unless you're on that VPN. But the reality is for 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:30.760 just personal stuff, you probably don't need a VPN. So 0:06:30.960 --> 0:06:34.520 good question for our first one of the day. All right, 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:37.280 let's get to the second story of the day. Apple 0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:38.920 unveils a new iPad pro. 0:06:39.000 --> 0:06:39.080 So. 0:06:39.120 --> 0:06:41.000 I told you there was a couple of new products 0:06:41.040 --> 0:06:44.880 out there, and this is Apple, and this is the 0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:48.800 iPad pro. So iPad pro is obviously, this is going 0:06:48.839 --> 0:06:51.120 to appeal to kind of the business traveler, the high 0:06:51.200 --> 0:06:55.120 end folks. Nobody's business traveling right now. But they're making 0:06:55.160 --> 0:06:59.280 this closer and closer to a good laptop replacement. And 0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:01.280 I think they're doing a really nice job because the 0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:04.560 main headline of the iPad pro is that it now 0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:08.680 has a trackpad support. So now that the keyboard cover 0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:10.840 has a little trackpad, you know, a little thing you 0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:13.080 put your fingers on and move them around. And I 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:15.120 think that's really crazy because Apple always said like, we 0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:18.040 would never do that. But of course they've they backtracked 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:20.240 on the whole stylus thing. Now they're backtracking on the 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:23.840 track pad thing. But the bottom line on the iPad 0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:25.960 Pro is that it has a new chip that's faster. 0:07:26.440 --> 0:07:29.360 They say it's faster than most Windows PC laptops out 0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:32.040 quite the burn there. It's got an ultra wide camera 0:07:32.240 --> 0:07:34.920 and studio quality mic. So, Megan, if we got these, 0:07:35.040 --> 0:07:38.280 we can convince Katla to get us these iPad pros. 0:07:38.480 --> 0:07:41.920 We can just record our podcast without any external equipment. 0:07:41.960 --> 0:07:44.880 All we need is the iPad Wow, and how cool 0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:47.800 will that be? So the microphone built in, they're saying, 0:07:47.960 --> 0:07:50.080 is as good as your studio quality mic that you 0:07:50.120 --> 0:07:55.000 have right now. It also has LDAR, which is it's 0:07:55.080 --> 0:07:59.040 kind of like a a did you hear that? Yeah? 0:07:59.120 --> 0:07:59.440 Was that you? 0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:02.560 Yeah? That's y U great, that's that's my family. We 0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:06.800 have this giant group chat on Telegram. And when my 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:10.480 family starts chatting, oh boy do they chat. They will 0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:13.360 chat four hours. It's basically a twenty four to seven chat. 0:08:13.400 --> 0:08:16.320 So I just muted that one and the lightar on 0:08:16.400 --> 0:08:20.280 the back side of the iPad gives you new augmented 0:08:20.280 --> 0:08:22.440 reality possibilities. Now, if you're thinking of getting one of 0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:25.720 these iPad pros and thinking that you might replace your 0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:29.360 laptop with it, well it's not cheap. The base configuration 0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:33.240 is an eleven inch for eight hundred bucks, and that 0:08:33.280 --> 0:08:36.719 has one hundred and twenty eight gigs of storage. Then 0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:39.199 you go up to the twelve point nine inch model, 0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:43.040 which is a really nice size for a iPad. That's 0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:47.280 one thousand bucks. Then then, by the way, Megan, you 0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:49.680 still have to get the keyboard, so the Magic keyboard 0:08:49.720 --> 0:08:52.120 is three hundred to three point fifty. Then after you 0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:54.440 get the keyboard, you still have to get the iPad 0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:56.760 pencil or the Apple pencil. That's another one hundred and 0:08:56.800 --> 0:08:58.840 twenty nine. So let's do the math real quick. You 0:08:58.840 --> 0:09:01.280 were good at math, right, So add this up for 0:09:01.360 --> 0:09:04.360 me ready eight hundred. This is for the smaller one. 0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:08.280 Eight hundred plus three hundred plus one thirty. That's eleven 0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:12.679 twelve thirty, twelve thirty, twelve hundred and thirty dollars. 0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:17.160 Whoa wow, that's a lot. That's a little bitulous. 0:09:17.320 --> 0:09:19.960 I just paid three grand for my MacBook and so 0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:23.240 you know, and if it could replace everything I could 0:09:23.280 --> 0:09:25.560 do on there. That's not bad. And I love the 0:09:25.600 --> 0:09:28.160 idea of having an iPad for everything. This has been 0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:30.440 my dream. I can't get away from my computer because 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.840 I just love having the file rystem. Yeah, being able 0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:37.280 to write, and it's just it's just nice. Yeah. But 0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:41.840 I would drop my laptop in a second for an iPad. 0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:45.280 Drop your laptop, Oh heck yeah, I would totally go 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:49.560 full Dropping my laptop is what caused me to get 0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:53.160 my trade in value went from six fifty to two 0:09:53.280 --> 0:09:55.080 hundred bucks when they got it because I dropped it 0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:56.880 once on my desk and there's a tiny little ding, 0:09:57.320 --> 0:09:58.840 So don't actually drop your laptop. 0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:01.240 No, A good idea. 0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:02.440 All right, I think we're getting into the swing of 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:03.000 things here. 0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:04.160 Okay. 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:08.600 Our next question comes from Janet hi Rich. I watch 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:11.360 you on the morning news regularly.

There's twenty eight 0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:33.400 online exhibits, including Coco Chanel, Christian Dior, Baroque, v Oz. 0:11:33.559 --> 0:11:35.280 There's all kinds. There's two hundred things you can look 0:11:35.280 --> 0:11:37.360 at in there. So that's what she was talking about. 0:11:37.440 --> 0:11:43.160 Arts and culture dot Google dot com. And that's pretty cool. 0:11:43.400 --> 0:11:45.600 I mean, I I really cool. You know you don't 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:49.560 have kids just yet, but let me tell you. Entertaining 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:51.320 kids at home, I will tell you this is this 0:11:51.360 --> 0:11:54.040 has been the most amazing part. It's it's very chaok. 0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:57.319 In my house, obviously, we're all working from home. We 0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:00.160 do little kids and my kids are doing zoom, my 0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:02.760 wife is doing zoom on doing a podcast. I mean 0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:04.840 it's crazy, like the bandwidth you need to get this 0:12:04.920 --> 0:12:07.120 done is really crazy. But I will tell you the 0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:10.600 most magical thing is sitting there doing lessons with my kid. 0:12:10.640 --> 0:12:12.360 Because I don't really teach my kid. I just let 0:12:12.440 --> 0:12:15.480 the teachers do that. But sitting there doing his review 0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:19.080 worksheet worksheets, it's kind of amazing to watch to see 0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:21.800 what your kids know. And that has been really eye 0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:25.120 opening because watching my kid do math is just really 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:27.280 fun as a parent, like, wow, this little kid has 0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:29.440 like all this knowledge in his head. Like it's kind 0:12:29.440 --> 0:12:29.800 of cool. 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:32.640 No, it's fascinating. That's so fun. 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:36.040 So speaking of coronavirus, you know, I call it CV 0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:38.400 because I hate even saying the word at this point 0:12:38.440 --> 0:12:40.640 because it's like this thing has affected us in ways 0:12:40.640 --> 0:12:43.400 that like, what the what the heck is going on? 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:47.400 But speaking of CV our story on KTLA today, and 0:12:47.440 --> 0:12:49.480 some of you might notice by the way that I 0:12:49.520 --> 0:12:51.680 no longer have a personal website. A lot of you 0:12:51.760 --> 0:12:54.760 been emailing me. I've gone through some changes with that 0:12:54.840 --> 0:12:57.560 and actually today, Megan, what are you drinking over there? 0:12:59.160 --> 0:13:03.920 It's a oh nice, I'm having some vodka in a 0:13:03.960 --> 0:13:04.600 water bottle. 0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:08.120 Oh nice. Well that's yeah typical. 0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:11.360 Yeah, that's pretty standard. But it says body armor, so 0:13:11.400 --> 0:13:13.400 it looks like I'm having something healthy. No, I'm just kidding. 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:18.040 It's actually just water. It's just water. But this water 0:13:18.080 --> 0:13:20.400 bottle is unique because it's really meant for like athletes 0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:23.960 because look at that wide opening, so you can like 0:13:24.040 --> 0:13:25.840 really get like a lot of water at once. So 0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:30.199 it's like it's like really to quench your thirst. And 0:13:31.720 --> 0:13:36.960 I've literally done minimal workouts since I've been stranded here. 0:13:37.360 --> 0:13:38.240 I don't believe that. 0:13:38.600 --> 0:13:43.680 Well, okay, that's that's I did. I actually did the 0:13:43.679 --> 0:13:47.840 the Planet Fitness online workout that they're doing their live 0:13:47.840 --> 0:13:50.000 streaming at like seven pm every day, So I put 0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:51.960 up YouTube and like I just did the workout just 0:13:51.960 --> 0:13:52.959 to try it out. So We're going to do a 0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:54.760 story on all these fitness companies that are doing at 0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:57.120 home workouts. It was great and it wasn't really hard, 0:13:57.120 --> 0:13:58.640 but it was great. And then today I'll probably go 0:13:58.679 --> 0:14:01.000 for a run. But the Planet Fitness people were telling 0:14:01.000 --> 0:14:03.480 me that they actually have tanning beds in their gyms. 0:14:04.080 --> 0:14:06.520 So they were like, oh, Planet Fitness sucks because they 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:09.120 have tanning beds, which I had to look up, which 0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:10.880 I think is kind of odd in today's day and 0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:12.679 age for like, you know, you know all this stuff 0:14:12.679 --> 0:14:15.160 about tanning. I mean, you went through the tanning face, 0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:18.600 what you went through your tanning bed face? But you've 0:14:18.600 --> 0:14:19.880 given that up, right, I've. 0:14:19.880 --> 0:14:21.400 Never I've never done it. 0:14:21.520 --> 0:14:25.400 You've never done that. I'll advance actually did it once. 0:14:25.720 --> 0:14:28.240 I did it once, and it was when I when 0:14:28.280 --> 0:14:33.520 I first started at KTLA. I moved from oh no, 0:14:33.600 --> 0:14:35.400 sorry k Cal, I think it was, and I moved 0:14:35.400 --> 0:14:37.120 from like the middle of nowhere, and I felt like 0:14:37.120 --> 0:14:39.720 I didn't fit in in LA without a tan and 0:14:39.800 --> 0:14:43.880 so actually I actually went once and it was like 0:14:43.960 --> 0:14:47.480 the most humiliating experience. I never did it again. But 0:14:47.760 --> 0:14:48.560 now they just now. 0:14:48.480 --> 0:14:51.800 I realize, well now I realized they just give you 0:14:52.000 --> 0:14:57.560 the you know, the bronzer, Yeah, the bronze or whatever, 0:14:57.600 --> 0:14:59.480 and they can do whatever they want in the makeup room. 0:14:59.520 --> 0:15:03.400 You know, it's right. Okay, So some of the freebies 0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:05.880 companies are offering. This was our story on KTLA. And 0:15:05.880 --> 0:15:07.200 by the way, if you want to see my new 0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:12.560 kind of new website thing, it's uh uh what is 0:15:12.600 --> 0:15:16.080 it? It's links dot rich on tech dot tv. So you 0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:17.640 can check it out, Megan. It's actually kind of cool. 0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:19.800 I set it up today and I'm now paying like 0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:21.400 I think it's like six bucks a month for this 0:15:21.400 --> 0:15:23.800 little website. But it really it's nice. It's like very 0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:26.200 well designed, it's simple, but it just gets you to 0:15:26.400 --> 0:15:28.440 because my whole thing, and this is to kind of 0:15:28.480 --> 0:15:31.560 complete the story my whole My whole thing about rich 0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:34.240 on tech dot TV was to make it easy for 0:15:34.400 --> 0:15:37.160 viewers when they see me on TV to find my story. 0:15:37.680 --> 0:15:40.960 And we are on a whole bunch of different stations 0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:44.360 across America, and so that's why I can't necessarily say 0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:47.840 KTLA dot com slash tech because that'll bring you to 0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:50.000 our story. So the whole thing of rich on tech 0:15:50.000 --> 0:15:52.280 dot TV was that I wanted to make sure people 0:15:52.280 --> 0:15:54.520 can find the stories I mentioned, because it's my pet 0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:56.360 peeve when you see someone on TV say, oh, just 0:15:56.360 --> 0:15:58.320 go to our website and find the story, and you can't. 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:03.800 So that's that's why did it. Okay. So here's a 0:16:03.840 --> 0:16:05.760 couple of things that I talked about today on TV 0:16:05.800 --> 0:16:07.800 that you can get for free while you're stuck at home. 0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:11.040 Zen Caster. If you've ever wanted to start your own podcast, 0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:14.640 zen Caster is lifting the limits on its basic plan 0:16:15.040 --> 0:16:17.640 through July first, which you can do an entire podcast 0:16:17.760 --> 0:16:20.800 right from your computer with them. Miro Drop. If you 0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:23.280 want to send a large file for work, miro drop 0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:25.480 will let you send up to a ten gigabyte file, 0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:28.760 and that's pretty large, so oh wow. You know, if 0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:30.880 you need to send a file for work or whatever, 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:34.560 that's there. Trip it Pro. If all your all my 0:16:34.600 --> 0:16:36.560 flights have been canceled in the next couple of months 0:16:36.600 --> 0:16:39.440 are changed, trippet Pro will actually help you keep track 0:16:39.480 --> 0:16:41.120 of that, and you can get a free subscription to 0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:43.000 that right now for six months if you sign up 0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:47.080 before March thirty first. Peloton, I don't have a Peloton bike. 0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:49.640 In fact, the exercise bike that I talked about in 0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:53.560 this podcast that I ordered is it's like so back 0:16:53.680 --> 0:16:56.000 ordered that it's like, what's going on here? And if 0:16:56.040 --> 0:16:58.960 this would have been perfect timing, but it's still not arrived, 0:16:59.000 --> 0:16:59.640 so I haven't done well. 0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:02.760 What was it called? The bike that you you ordered? 0:17:03.120 --> 0:17:07.560 The bike that I ordered was the Bowflex C six, 0:17:08.160 --> 0:17:10.160 And I also noticed they raise the price on it, 0:17:10.200 --> 0:17:12.879 so demand must be so high that they actually up 0:17:13.040 --> 0:17:15.280 the price by fifty bucks. So when I ordered it, it 0:17:15.160 --> 0:17:17.879 was eight ninety nine. Now it's nine hundred and fifty dollars, 0:17:17.880 --> 0:17:23.920 so oh WOWK Peloton, you can use the Peloton app. 0:17:23.960 --> 0:17:26.560 They're giving that free for thirty days or for ninety days. 0:17:26.560 --> 0:17:29.760 Normally it's thirty, it's ninety. Then there's an app called 0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:34.480 Caribou cr Ibu. This lets you connect your kids on 0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:36.240 a virtual plate eate so you can connect this with 0:17:36.320 --> 0:17:39.960 grandma and you can read a book across the app, 0:17:40.000 --> 0:17:41.960 so it's kind of like FaceTime, but you can read 0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:43.960 a book. So talk about that for a second, Meggan, 0:17:43.960 --> 0:17:45.760 So I'm gonna clear my throat here, so give your 0:17:45.760 --> 0:17:46.280 thoughts on that. 0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:49.160 I think that's so cute that you can like read 0:17:49.200 --> 0:17:53.240 a book with your grandma or your aunt or your uncle. 0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:54.600 I love that. 0:17:54.840 --> 0:17:55.879 Are your kids using that. 0:17:56.800 --> 0:17:57.639 Are you still clearing it? 0:17:57.800 --> 0:18:00.159 They are not. They have not used it, but I 0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:03.320 may try it. The problem is getting your kids. Getting 0:18:03.359 --> 0:18:05.960 grandma to install that app is probably the biggest challenge. 0:18:06.119 --> 0:18:09.440 But the mark on the Facebook chat says, what was 0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:12.520 the new website for Rich? I Eventually it'll just still 0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:14.240 be rich on tech dot tv, but it'll bring you 0:18:14.240 --> 0:18:16.640 to this other website. But just go to links dot 0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:18.800 rich on tech dot tv and that should bring you 0:18:18.840 --> 0:18:22.520 to the new site. It's pretty cool, so just I 0:18:22.520 --> 0:18:25.639 mean it should some people. Here's the problem with the website. 0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:27.680 If you went to my old website and you try 0:18:27.720 --> 0:18:29.639 to go to rich on tech dot tv, it's currently 0:18:29.720 --> 0:18:32.680 giving you an error because your browser is thinking it's 0:18:32.720 --> 0:18:35.480 not finding the redirect. But if you're new and you've 0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:36.959 never been to my website and you go to rich 0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:39.119 on tech dot tv, it should work and bring you 0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:41.359 to the new one. But if you just go to 0:18:41.400 --> 0:18:44.000 links dot rich on tech dot tv, that's working all right. 0:18:44.040 --> 0:18:46.760 The other thing is kina do k I n E edu. 0:18:46.960 --> 0:18:49.600 This one's really good. If you have really little kids 0:18:49.680 --> 0:18:52.159 under four, you type in their age and all their 0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:55.200 stuff and their day to birth and it will give 0:18:55.240 --> 0:18:57.480 you activities for them daily, which is kind of cool. 0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:00.919 Sling TV is encouraging folks to stay and sling. This 0:19:01.000 --> 0:19:03.960 is kind of like their Netflix and Chill. You can 0:19:03.960 --> 0:19:06.600 actually watch a whole bunch of stuff on their website 0:19:06.800 --> 0:19:10.720 without logging in or signing up. It's watch dot sling 0:19:11.160 --> 0:19:15.800 dot com and no sign up, really easy Headspace. They're 0:19:15.800 --> 0:19:19.919 giving their meditation app free to any teacher in the 0:19:20.040 --> 0:19:23.760 US and healthcare professionals. And we actually messed up a 0:19:23.800 --> 0:19:27.439 little bit about Megan with our tags today. With our wraps, 0:19:27.480 --> 0:19:31.800 we mentioned the healthcare professionals only, and I actually kind 0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:34.280 of got that wrong. It's all teachers as well. So 0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:37.120 if you have a teacher or a school administrator or 0:19:37.560 --> 0:19:39.600 any support staff in the US, if you work at 0:19:39.600 --> 0:19:42.200 a school, you basically get Headspace for free. And I 0:19:42.240 --> 0:19:45.199 would say one hundred percent get that because I like that. 0:19:45.240 --> 0:19:48.040 And yes, Courtney recommends clear cash and cookies and then 0:19:48.119 --> 0:19:50.600 rich on tech dot tv will work. I tried that 0:19:50.640 --> 0:19:52.040 on my computer. It's still not working. I think I 0:19:52.080 --> 0:19:55.560 have to do a full reset on my browser. Apple 0:19:55.600 --> 0:19:59.960 News Plus not necessarily anything special for the free trial. 0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:02.080 Well it's just a month, but they have all kinds 0:20:02.119 --> 0:20:04.960 of magazines, and I would say, if you have never 0:20:05.080 --> 0:20:09.440 done one of the Apple News Plus subscriptions for free, 0:20:10.080 --> 0:20:14.320
