11
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,160
Speaker 1: I've been wanting to try that for a long time.

12
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,559
Speaker 1: You know what, Let's just see if this works. Now,

13

Speaker 1: goes out later on. But the reality is I'll take

15
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: the calls. I might have to chop it up a

16
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 1: bit depending on how this works. I have no idea,

17
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: but let's see. We've got two to one three on

18
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: the line. Two one three you're on with Rich.

00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 3: I love the phone. It's great, but can't figure out

24
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 3: how to make it charge other items when you set

25
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:28,680
Speaker 3: them on the back.

26
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: Oh, that's a good question. Does it have the reverse

27
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: charging capability?

28
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 3: Actually I thought you said it did. Let me say

29
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 3: when you were reviewing it.

30
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 2: Oh, you know what, Yes it does. Okay, So here's

31
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 2: how you do it.

32
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: So on your phone, open it up and swipe down

33
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: from the top, and then you have to swipe down

34
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:54,559
Speaker 1: again and you have to edit press that little there's

35
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: like a little upper right hand corner. There's like three

36
00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: dots and it says edit buttons, and then there should

37
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: be a button if it's not already in there for

38
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: the wireless charging.

39
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 2: So it's called power Share. Let's see if it's on

40
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 2: this one. Uh no, I got to add it. So

41
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,119
Speaker 2: do you see what I'm talking about here?

42
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 3: Well, I swiped down twice. Let me Oh, the three

43
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 3: dots run the top right buttons. There we go.

44
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: Okay, Now it says available buttons. I know, I say

45
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: button weird. And then there's one that says wireless power Share.

46
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 2: You drag that.

47
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 1: Down to the uh to the bottom there and that

48
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: will give you that button.

49
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 3: Okay, I have to re enter my pin. Darn it.

50
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a it's a handy feature and it's uh,

51
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: it's basically once you so it doesn't it's not activated

52
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: all the time, so they only you know, they want

53
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: to save power by not having it activated all the time,

54
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: so it's only when you press this button that will activate.

55
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: So did you get to the part where it lets

56
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: you edit the buttons?

57
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 3: There it says available buttons, and then I have to

58
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 3: go to the let me see.

59
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 2: Not finding it, so it says edit buttons.

60
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: So did you see the upper right hand versays edit

61
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: and then up at the top it says available. And

62
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 1: there should be one that says wireless power shares on

63
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,679
Speaker 1: mine it says wireless po because it's cut off a

64
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: little bit, okay, and then once you find that you

65
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: can drag uptown.

66
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 3: Mine says wireless poo.

67
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 2: That's it.

68
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 1: Ok So, now you drag that down to the to

69
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: the area with all the buttons and then you tap

70
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: that before you want a power share and that should

71
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: do it.

72
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 3: Great.

00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: believe it. This is something I've wanted to do for

89
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: so long, and I've done it in different iterations, but

90
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: it's uh, you know, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

91
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 1: But now I've got this full set up here and

92
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: it's gonna work every time. So if you want to

93
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 1: call in, give me a call. The phone number is

94

Speaker 1: a question, call me. If you just want to chat,

100
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: give me a call. Since this is kind of an

101
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: experimental show, I'm not going to hold you to like

102
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: a specific tech question, but if you want to just

103
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 1: say hi, or test it out, whatever, I'm totally open

104
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: to that. All right, let's talk about Twitter's new new owner,

105
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 1: who is Elon Musk. I'm sure you've heard this story.

106
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 1: It's been in the news so much. I'm not going

107
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 1: to do a whole lot on it because right now

108
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 1: we are left with a lot of rumors, speculation, and

109
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 1: just a lot of kind of opinions in this aspect

110
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,479
Speaker 1: of what's going to happen to Twitter now that Elon

111
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: Musk is going to take it over.

112
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 2: But I'll just give you the nuts and bolts of it.

113
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: Twitter is now going to be owned by Elon Musk

114
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: once this deal goes through. It's probably going to take

115
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: six months to go through. But Elon Musk offered about

116
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 1: basically paid forty four billion dollars for Twitter.

117
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 2: Bunch of that many.

118
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 1: Money came from himself from cash, bunch of the money

119
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: came from Tesla in the form of a loan, A

120
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: bunch of banks gave him.

121
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 2: Whatever. I'm not a finance guy, so I.

122
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: Don't know what they call it like a I don't

123
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: know whatever, it's some sort of loan, but it's like financing.

124
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 2: I don't know, it's like debt financing. I don't really

125
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 2: understand that stuff. But that's it.

126
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: He will own Twitter in the next six months, they're expecting.

127
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: And of course this has been a hotbed issue because

128
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 1: people are wondering what he means by making this a

129
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 1: He wants to make free speech the bedrock of a

130
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: functioning democracy. So people on the left are angry that

131
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: it's gonna, you know, just basically take a downward spiral

132
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: into a very not nice place. People on the right

133
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: are excited because they feel like they can you know,

134
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: they feel like they were being held down by Twitter

135
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: and so and people in the middle are just kind

136
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 1: of like, I don't know, We're gonna wait and see

137
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: what happens. But the reality is this is going to

138
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: be a change. Elon wants to make Twitter better by

139
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 1: giving it new features. He wants to open source the algorithm,

140
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,359
Speaker 1: defeat the spambots, and authenticate humans. So here is the

141
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: bottom line with this situation. The bottom line is that

142
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: this costs a lot of money. Elon Musk is a

143
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: smart guy and I don't think he is going to

144
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,039
Speaker 1: just let Twitter run into the ground and be a

145
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,919
Speaker 1: place where, you know, it's just full of hate speech

146
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 1: and misinformation and all the things that you know, you

147
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: can't really do on the other platforms.

148
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 2: So we'll see.

149
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm optimistic that he'll make it better, right

150
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: because Elon Musk has done really amazing things with Tesla,

151
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 1: with SpaceX and Twitter. Even though I can't one hundred

152
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: percent say that, I am a huge fan of what

153
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: he's been tweeting ever since he took over.

154
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 2: Like I'm like, it's a little.

155
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: Bit like on the on the scale of like, uh,

156
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: what's going on Elon, it's kind of like a nine

157
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: out of ten right now, maybe a ten out of ten.

158
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: And so I'm kind of hoping that's just kind of

159
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: just to give him, you know, he just likes to

160
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 1: kind of get people flustered and all this stuff. But

161
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, there's also talk, of course,

162
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: people talking in the chat room about unbanning Trump from Twitter,

163
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: but we don't know, we don't know what's.

164
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 2: Going to happen.

165
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: So I'm hopeful that Twitter will become a bigger social

166
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: network than it is, maybe more people. It's kind of

167
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: an insider social network where people that are in the media,

168
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,679
Speaker 1: people that are select brutes brands use it, but average

169
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: people don't typically use Twitter. Average people use Instagram, they

170
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: use TikTok, and yeah, like Frank said in the live chat,

171
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: he's not the most mature. No, he's definitely not for

172
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: someone that's just spent forty four billion dollars on Twitter.

173
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: The stuff he's been tweeting has been a little bit surprising,

174
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: you know. It's like, it's just I hope that it

175
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: levels out. Let's put it that way. But that is

176
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: the news with Twitter, and we'll see what happens. I mean,

177
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: I'm curious, and I just hope that it's a good

178
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: thing for Twitter personally. When it comes to Twitter, for me,

179
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: it's my least. It's interesting. It's a very important social

180
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: network professionally, but it's not an important social network for

181
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: me as a I don't know what you call a

182
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: creator or someone like this, Like I'm choosing to go

183
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: live here on Facebook because Facebook is where I have

184
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 1: a lot of people following me. I would go live

185
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: on Instagram. If I went live on Twitter, I'd have

186
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: three people watching if so, it's just not a big

187
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 1: place for me personally, so I just don't put that

188
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 1: much stock into it. Even though I love Twitter. I

189
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: love the way it works, I love the functionality. I

190
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 1: love how you can actually post stuff and post a

191
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:17,319
Speaker 1: variety of stuff, unlike Instagram, which is very much like complicated.

192
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 1: Even though it looks pretty, it's complicated on the creator

193
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,599
Speaker 1: side because you know, it's just tough to do a

194
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: lot of stuff on there, like you can't even post

195
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: a link very easily.

196
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 2: So stay tuned on that one. All right.

197
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: You can call in if you want, if you want

198
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 1: to chat, you can call in. That's one hundred percent okay. Otherwise,

199
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get to my questions that I have that

200
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 1: people have pre sent in.

201
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 2: Uh, let's see, Eva says.

202
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 1: My husband and I are having discussion about what three words?

203
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 1: Please help us understand why it's better than using GPS

204
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: coordinates or just sharing your location with something like Google Maps.

205
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 2: Great question.

206
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: So if you watch me on KTLA, you know that

207
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: I did a story on this app called what three Words?

208
00:09:58,880 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 2: And what three.

209
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: Words is basically GPS but in words. So what they've

210
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 1: done is they've divided up the entire world into ten

211
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 1: by ten squares, and so the app will reveal your

212
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 1: ten by ten square wherever you're standing, and it will

213
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 1: translate that into three words, and those three words you

214
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 1: can send to someone and they can navigate right to

215
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: those three words.

216
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,439
Speaker 2: So how is it better than GPS?

217
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: Yes, every address in the world, well not every address,

218
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: but I guess they do. It has a GPS or

219
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: a physical address. So why would you give some of

220
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 1: the three words. Well, let me give you one good example.

221
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 1: Let's say you are tailgating in a parking lot at

222
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 1: a big stadium. Now you tell someone I'm in the

223
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: stadium right in front of tunnel forty seven or twenty

224
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 1: six or whatever it is.

225
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 2: It's really tough to find people.

226
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: And so what you have to do with what three

227
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: words is you can narrow down to exactly where you're

228
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 1: standing in that parking lot, and then you can send

229
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: that location to someone using those three words, and then

230
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: they can navi gate right to that location using those

231
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: three words. And the three words are different every ten feet,

232
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: So you can imagine if you're standing one hundred feet down,

233
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,319
Speaker 1: your three words would be different than the person that's

234
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: one hundred feet away, so it would bring them right.

235
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 2: To your tailgate.

236
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: So that's the best way that I can describe it.

237
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,839
Speaker 1: The other scenario I would see is that if I happen.

238
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 2: To be stranded.

239
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: If I was taking a hike and I got stranded

240
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,320
Speaker 1: on a mountaintop somewhere, and I literally had like one

241
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: percent battery left and there was nothing else I could

242
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: do except like make one tweet, make one phone call,

243
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,079
Speaker 1: I would go to this app, get my three words,

244
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: and tweet it out, and basically, you know, let's say

245
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 1: it's like shovel, horse fly, you know, And that way,

246
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: someone would know exactly where I am specifically because of

247
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: that app. Now, it might take them a little bit

248
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: to realize, like what are these weird three words that

249
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: Rich used as his last three words of his life.

250
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 1: But you know, if someone figured it out, it could

251
00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 1: be very advantageous to finding me.

252
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 2: And also, let's say I can only.

253
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: Make a voice call, I would tell the person you know,

254
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 1: horse fly, shoe, whatever, and I wouldn't be able to

255
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: say my GPS coordinates, like no one can say. I mean, yes,

256
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 1: if you want to say your GPS coordinates, it's like

257
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 1: a really involved number and your address if you're on

258
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,200
Speaker 1: a mountaintop, you don't know your address. Oh I'm on

259
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 1: I'm on King Mountain. I don't know. It's it's like

260
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,319
Speaker 1: you're not gonna be able to relay that. So the

261
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: best way I can describe what three words is it's

262
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: a simple, fast, easy way to relay your location in

263
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 1: three simple words. And also another example is if you

264
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: were a farmer's market person, Like let's say you a

265
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,320
Speaker 1: little booth at a farmer's market. You can say find

266
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: us at the you know, West La farmers Market, we

267
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 1: are at cat you know, toy mouse, whatever the three

268
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: words are, and someone can navigate right to your booth

269
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 1: instead of just, you know, somewhere in that giant inside

270
00:12:56,200 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 1: that giant farmer's market trying to find your booth. So

271
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:05,200
Speaker 1: that is the that is the the kind of the

272
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: DL on what three words. I think it's pretty fantastic.

273
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty smart. I just think a lot

274
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: more people need to learn about it. And I think

275
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 1: it's just the app is easy to use, but it's

276
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 1: also like one of these things where ninety nine percent

277
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 1: of the time you can just send someone a pin.

278
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 1: But this also works across platform, and there's just a

279
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 1: lot more like even for voice recognition like in cars.

280
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 1: They're building this in and so I think it's a

281
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: smart way, uh to do voice navigation as well, because

282
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,319
Speaker 1: you don't have to say the address, you can just

283
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: say the three words. So I think for marketing purposes,

284
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 1: and I think they had this in mind for marketing purposes.

285
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 1: It's really cool because it's super easy to tell someone

286
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 1: where your store is if you just uh, you know,

287
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 1: if you just say those three words. All right, we

288
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,719
Speaker 1: got another phone call six oh two, six oh two.

289
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,319
Speaker 2: You are on with rich what's going on? Who's this?

290
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 3: Green's the name of follows on Always Birds is passive.

291
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,839
Speaker 1: Dongie is CEO of winning team based in Toney.

292
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 4: Las Vegas.

293
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 1: I'm having a great time and loving the apps and

294
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: all the different technology.

295
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:07,439
Speaker 5: That's coming out.

296
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, what are you seeing for the world

297
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 1: in the future. What am I seeing in the world

298
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 1: in the future? Pastor I am seeing? And I think

299
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: if if you're do you do you run a church too?

300
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 3: Yes, sir, I have a broadcast network.

301
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 6: We have three meeting listeners and.

302
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 1: Oh wow, okay, well here's what I'm Here's what I

303
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 1: see as the future. I see virtual reality as the future.

304
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: So if you are not doing a virtual reality church

305
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 1: or that's not in the plans, I'm telling you you

306
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: can be standing in I could tell you, but I'm

307
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 1: telling you if you've put on that VR headset, it

308
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: is phenomenal. And I'm telling you virtual reality is going

309
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: to bring people together in ways we have never even imagined,

310
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 1: and especially for someone like yourself that's trying to get

311
00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 1: a message out to a lot of people and also

312
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 1: connect with those people. I think that VR is going

313
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 1: to be a huge part of that. I don't think

314
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 1: it's there just yet. I think it's gonna be a

315
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: couple of years before it's you know, progressed and the

316
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: technology gets better. But I'm telling you what Facebook's doing

317
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: with the Metaverse. I know they've got that fancy name

318
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: and everyone's kind of making fun of it, but I'm

319
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: telling you they're onto something. And I think we're gonna

320
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 1: start seeing people traveling in VR. I think we're gonna

321
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 1: see them attending church in VR. They're gonna they're gonna

322
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 1: check out hotels before they check into them on VR

323
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: to see if it's somewhere they want to go. I

324
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 1: just see a big, big potential for that pastor.

325
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 4: That's big.

326
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 2: Well, thank you for knowledge.

327
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 1: I'm telling my get some of this education, all right,

328
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: send them my way, Thank you, thank you so much.

329
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: All the way from Las Vegas. They're one of my

330
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: favorite towns. I love Las Vegas. I don't think I

331
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 1: could live in Las Vegas because I think I'd become

332
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: pretty degenerate quickly. But I love Las Vegas. I know

333
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: a lot of Vegas one of those places that people

334
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 1: either love or hate. But I gotta tell you, I've

335
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 1: been playing with VR more and more and it is

336
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: just mind boggling. How how I mean, we're just at

337
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: the beginning. I was watching Netflix and VR the other

338
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: day and you put the headset on and next thing

339
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 1: you know, my entire living room was transformed into a

340
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 1: giant mansion in the middle of on a snow capped mountain.

341
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 2: It was snowing outside. I could see the window.

342
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: I had this huge, big screen TV, nice fireplace, coffee table,

343
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 1: and I'm just watching that nature documentary inside the headset.

344
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: And it just blew my mind that this is what

345
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: Netflix has built, like a virtual theater, and just times

346
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 1: that times everything, I mean, a virtual experience is just

347
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 1: it's such I don't think the headsets are there just

348
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: yet because they're kind of bulky. They kind of hurt

349
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 1: your eyes to watch for a long time.

350
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 2: It's not that clear.

351
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: It's not as clear as a regular TV. But I

352
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 1: really think that there is something there and it's really

353
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 1: really exciting to me. Let's talk about Apple. Self Service

354
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 1: Repair is now available. So Apple has this new website,

355
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: the Self Service Repair Store. You can go on there

356
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: and order over two hundred individual parts and tools to

357
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,199
Speaker 1: fix the display, the camera, and the battery on your

358
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 1: iPhone twelve, your iPhone thirteen or the iPhone se. These

359
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: are all genuine products. They're selling them at the same

360
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,400
Speaker 1: price that they sell to their authorized repair providers. They'll

361
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: also give you the instructions, they might give you a

362
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,920
Speaker 1: small credit when you return a part for recycling, and

363
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: they'll also rent you the tools to do this for

364
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 1: forty nine dollars. So I think this is a good

365
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 1: thing overall, really good thing. The downside of this, according

366
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 1: to Ifix, it is that they link all of the

367
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 1: parts to a serial number on the iPhone, which makes

368
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 1: it just there's just a little bit of resistance, a

369
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 1: little bit of friction there. You can't just go on

370
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 1: and order like twenty five screens and then help people

371
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: repair things. But you know help you know, neighbors all

372
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 1: repair their phones. You'd need like their serial number to

373
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:09,159
Speaker 1: do that.

374
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 2: But I think this is cool. I think it's a

375
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 2: good step. I guess I should try replacing a screen.

376
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 2: Why not? I should? I should?

377
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: Actually, you know what, let me note to self, I

378
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 1: should do a story where I try repairing an iPhone

379
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,200
Speaker 1: like a cracked screen and see if I can do it.

380
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 2: What a brilliant story.

381
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 1: So the last time I replaced something on a device

382
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 1: was I'm dating myself. But this was an iPod and

383
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 1: I replaced the battery on the iPod.

384
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 2: And it, you know, it was great.

385
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 1: It the battery like ran out, and so I ordered

386
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 1: a new battery on I think it was Amazon.

387
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 2: Pulled it out.

388
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:43,879
Speaker 1: It was really tough to get, like the glue and

389
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: all this stuff out from the bottom.

390
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 2: I did it.

391
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 1: iPod worked great and I probably used it for another

392
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 1: six months or so, so it was kind of fun.

393
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 4: Uh.

394
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 1: Susan says, I'm increasingly getting more spam text messages. What

395
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 1: are your thoughts about this or any other spam? And

396
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 1: she sent a link to a spam text blocker called

397
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 1: text Killer.

398
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 2: Well, so here's the thing.

399
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 1: I My advice with the spam text is that it

400
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 1: comes and goes. So the number one thing you want

401
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 1: to do is is, you know, sign up with whoever

402
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: your carrier is. I mean there's only three at this point,

403
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 1: AT and T, T Mobile, and Verizon. So make sure

404
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: that you have whatever protections they offer turned on. And

405
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,919
Speaker 1: so I think for T Mobile it's called scam Shield,

406
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 1: For AT and T it's called call protect, and for Verizon,

407
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: I think it's called call Filter. So make sure you

408
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: have those features turned on and those apps downloaded to

409
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: your phone. They also work with phone calls, and I

410
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 1: believe they do a certain level of text message filtering. Now,

411
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: this text Killer, I don't know because I'm just curious

412
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 1: how it's going to block texts, because I just don't

413
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 1: know how it would intercept texts. Like the way that

414
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: iOS is set up is that you can't really have

415
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 1: a program intercepting the texts, and so I'm trying to

416
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:07,680
Speaker 1: figure out.

417
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,360
Speaker 2: I guess I'd have to look at this, but it says.

418
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 1: Eliminate ninety nine percent of text messages. But I'm not

419
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:18,959
Speaker 1: really sure, like what how it's getting, you know, how

420
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: it's intercepting your text messages. That's the main thing I

421
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: want to know, because you can't like iOS doesn't really

422
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: let you do that. So I have to look into

423
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,359
Speaker 1: this program more. I probably would not recommend it right

424
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: at this time. I mean, it's made by Robokiller, which

425
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 1: I do trust. I do trust that company, so that's good.

426
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 1: Let's see how much it is. So it looks like

427
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 1: it's thirty dollars a year or three to four dollars

428
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: a month for this protection. I don't know if spam

429
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: protection is worth four dollars a month. I mean, you're

430
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: already paying your cell phone bill and I get, you know,

431
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: my phone number is kind of out there a lot,

432
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,920
Speaker 1: and so I don't even get that many spams where

433
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 1: I would think it's worth four dollars a month.

434
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 2: There's just probably no way I would do that.

435
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 1: So the thing you can do if you're really worried

436
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: about spam messages is or spam texts, you can go

437
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 1: into the iPhone and there's a setting that will filter

438
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,399
Speaker 1: unknown senders. I think even that's overkilled because a lot

439
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 1: of messages from random people, like let's say you order

440
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,400
Speaker 1: an uber and they text you that would go into

441
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: that unknown messages and you might not even see it

442
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,360
Speaker 1: because they kind of go in there silently. So personally,

443
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 1: when it comes to text, I think texts are very important.

444
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 1: I don't like to mess with them at all. I

445
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: want to get them if it's a bad one, which

446
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: I've gotten. I've gotten some pretty dicey texts, and you know,

447
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:33,639
Speaker 1: I just say, I see it. I'm like, wait what,

448
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 1: and I just delete it so I know it's it's

449
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 1: kind of jarring. The main thing is not to click

450
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 1: links inside those texts. If you're on an Android phone,

451
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: the main thing you want to do is use Google

452
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 1: Messages because they do have spam filtering built into Google messages.

453
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 2: So that's what I would do. That's what I would

454
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,719
Speaker 2: do for sure. All right, let's get to another caller. Here.

455
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 2: We have six two six on the line six two six.

456
00:21:59,000 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 2: You're on with Rich.

457
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:00,920
Speaker 6: Hi.

458
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,919
Speaker 5: Hi, Robert under from Mexican.

459
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 2: Robert.

460
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 1: I recognize Robert's name, Robert. It's good to put it's

461
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,119
Speaker 1: good to put a voice to the name because I

462
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,360
Speaker 1: see you, I see your comments, I see your likes,

463
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 1: and I wonder who is this Robert? So you're calling from?

464
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 1: You said Pasadena Oh, Temecula.

465
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,120
Speaker 2: I love Temecula. I used to go there a lot.

466
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 2: So what's on your mind?

467
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 5: Yes, this week I had with my question is my

468
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:38,920
Speaker 5: wife is looking at a device called Remarkable. I was

469
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,640
Speaker 5: wondering if you had any any knowledge of it. It's

470
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 5: a it's a note taking device that works with windows,

471
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,639
Speaker 5: and basically she can take notes and pull them up

472
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,440
Speaker 5: whenever she needs to find something she's written over the

473
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:58,159
Speaker 5: last month or two, okay, and she's been reading a

474
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 5: lot of negative feedback on it, so I was I

475
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:02,640
Speaker 5: told her I would ask to see if you had

476
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,119
Speaker 5: any ideas on it.

477
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,560
Speaker 1: Well, okay, let's see. So I the fact that I

478
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 1: am not familiar with this is number one my my worry.

479
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 1: The number two thing that makes me worried is that

480
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: when you google it, it says remarkable is it legit?

481
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 1: Now I'm looking at a Tom's Guide review and it says, uh,

482
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 1: you know, it's a unique tablet, it's the ultimate tablet

483
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: for writers. It got it got a Editor's Choice award.

484
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 1: So the problem is that I would see with this

485
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 1: is that it looks like it's kind of expensive. It's

486
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 1: like three hundred dollars. But it's also it's also a

487
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 1: proprietary device. So for me, now, why is there a

488
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:46,719
Speaker 1: reason why she doesn't want an iPad?

489
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:54,640
Speaker 5: I well, on the iPad, are you able to connect

490
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:58,440
Speaker 5: that with your your desktop and pull up notes as

491
00:23:58,480 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 5: you need them by the date?

492
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, there is a there's an app that I like

493
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 1: called Notability, which is really good, and that can do

494
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:07,879
Speaker 1: you know, you can take notes and do that.

495
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 2: I've gotten they just sent this to me.

496
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 1: But there's a screen protector called paper Like and it's

497
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: actually kind of a screen protector that is almost like

498
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,800
Speaker 1: a matt finish, like a grippy kind of a It

499
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:24,639
Speaker 1: mimics the feel of paper.

500
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 2: So I haven't put it on there yet. They just

501
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 2: sent it to me. I'm gonna test it out.

502
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: But that could also be a good a good solution,

503
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 1: So if your wife really wants to do this personally,

504
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: if it was me, I would go with something like

505
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 1: an iPad, just because Apple has put so much effort

506
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 1: into their experience of the pen and paper on this iPad.

507
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 1: Plus you get the you get the most apps for this,

508
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 1: like remarkable. You're gonna have to use their proprietary app.

509
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 1: Plus you can add things like the successory that I

510
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 1: mentioned this paper like, it's paperlike dot com if you

511
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 1: want to check it out, but it's a screen protector

512
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 1: that has you know, it feels like paper. And so

513
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: again it's for all of those reasons that I think

514
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,399
Speaker 1: it's probably a better a better thing to go with

515
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 1: the with the tablet that so many people have gone with,

516
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,639
Speaker 1: versus this remarkable. Now I haven't tested this remarkable. It

517
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 1: could be amazing, but to me, it seems like a

518
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:19,640
Speaker 1: one trick pony that might be good. But also if

519
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 1: this company goes under or if they stop supporting it

520
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 1: or the software doesn't come out. And also it's just

521
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 1: not as flexible as having an iPad that you know,

522
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 1: when she's done writing, she can do other stuff like,

523
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:32,679
Speaker 1: you know, if she wants to use it for email

524
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 1: or watching videos.

525
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:34,879
Speaker 2: Or things like that.

526
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,399
Speaker 1: So it looks like it has kind of a kindle screen,

527
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 1: which I did play with one of these at a

528
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 1: show once, but it you know, it's like a pen

529
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: and paper, but it's it's a it's an expensive pad

530
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 1: of paper. So you know, is there a place that

531
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 1: you can try it out before you buy it?

532
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 4: I don't.

533
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 5: I haven't seen one yet, And I, like I said,

534
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,159
Speaker 5: there's a lot of negative feedback online about their uh

535
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,920
Speaker 5: working with the customers, so I was heading against that.

536
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 5: I figured the iPad would.

537
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:06,920
Speaker 3: Be the better choice.

538
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 6: So I just wanted to pick your brain.

539
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think go with the iPad. I

540
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 2: mean that iPad Mini is.

541
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how big she wants the screen,

542
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: but the iPad Mini is a nice size if you

543
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,679
Speaker 1: want something that's smaller. But uh again that that paper

544
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: like screen protector. Definitely look into that and see what

545
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: the deal is because uh, I think that that could

546
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 1: be onto something if she wants that pen and paper

547
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 1: kind of experience. So, Robert, it was great to talk

548
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,120
Speaker 1: to you. And now I have a voice to the name.

549
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 1: And I'm I'm happy that this whole uh, this whole

550
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 1: call and thing actually worked out. I'm actually like floored

551
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:41,440
Speaker 1: right now that this is so easy for me.

552
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, thank you, and I'll keep watching your show.

553
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 1: Thank you, all right, Robert, take care of thank you,

554
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 1: and uh, let's talk about another new product.

555
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 2: And this is the thing.

556
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: So like, uh, you know, when people ask me about stuff,

557
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 1: like a lot of times I have to make kind

558
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 1: of a what's called a you know, not an educated guest.

559
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 1: But a lot of things I do play with and

560
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 1: I do get to experience, you know, most of the

561
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 1: gadgets that are out there, like the mainstream ones. But

562
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 1: then there's a lot of stuff that I have to

563
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: make like an educated guess on. And so I get

564
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,119
Speaker 1: so many questions about these photosticks, and people are like this,

565
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 1: you know, they advertise them on Facebook or wherever, and

566
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: they say should I get this? And I can look

567
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 1: at the website and in one second I can tell

568
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,439
Speaker 1: if a product is scammy because of the website, if

569
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 1: the website is using high pressure sales tactics, if it's

570
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 1: got like a big discount right off the top, if

571
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,119
Speaker 1: you move your mouse off the main website, and all

572
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:35,680
Speaker 1: of a sudden it says, oh, stay, we'll give you

573
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: two for the price of one. The other one I'm

574
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,360
Speaker 1: seeing it with right now. Are all these eco savers,

575
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 1: like these fuel saver gadgets, And you know it's like,

576
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: come on, if you could spend twenty dollars and pop

577
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: something into your car and get triple the gas mileage,

578
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,719
Speaker 1: like we'd all have that, right So well, I wouldn't

579
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: because I.

580
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 2: Have a Tesla. But you know, you know what I

581
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 2: mean people that have a gas car would have that.

582
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: But you know I'm saying, I mean, it's one of

583
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 1: these things where you know, I can just tell when

584
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 1: I go to these websites that people send me that

585
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 1: they're just they're just not right. And another thing that

586
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 1: they do is this is something that's a little bit

587
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,160
Speaker 1: elevated for you know, the average consumer.

588
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 2: To kind of know.

589
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 1: But like they these companies when they come out with

590
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 1: a product that is kind of like scammy, they put

591
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 1: out a press release and then a lot of these

592
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 1: big mainstream websites, you can pay to have your press release.

593
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 2: Put on that website, and so it looks like that

594
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 2: product is being talked about on you know, a mainstream

595
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,200
Speaker 2: news site, and it's actually just a press release. You

596
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 2: can look closely and it might.

597
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 1: Say sponsored or press release provided or news provided by.

598
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 2: And so you have to be on the lookout.

599
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 1: And this is why I'm here, is to help you

600
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 1: navigate all these things, because you know, these people are

601
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 1: trying to trick you. It's it's been going on since

602
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: the beginning of mankind, right, all right, So snap snap

603
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,480
Speaker 1: is the new name for snapchat. So when I say snap,

604
00:28:58,560 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: that's what I'm talking about, but they don't want to

605
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 1: be called Snapchat because I think they're just called snap now.

606
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: But they came out with a new drone. It's called

607
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 1: the Pixie. This is a two hundred and thirty dollars

608
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 1: autonomous drone. Joanna stern Over at The Wall Street Journal

609
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: got one in advance of the announcement today and she

610
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 1: tried it out, and basically, it sounds like it's fun,

611
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 1: but for two hundred and thirty dollars, it's probably not

612
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 1: something you're gonna rush out and buy. The pictures aren't

613
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 1: as good as you would get on your phone. A

614
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 1: lot of times she was wondering why she wouldn't just

615
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 1: set up her phone on a tripod to take pictures.

616
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, you can't discount the fact that it is

617
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 1: fun to send a drone up into the air to

618
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 1: have it capture pictures of you. That is really cool.

619
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 1: You're on a hike with your kids, you send this

620
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 1: drone up. It's all autonomous. There's no controlling it. It

621
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: just you just pick one of four flight modes. Okay,

622
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 1: so there's hover, which the Pixie reverses a couple of

623
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 1: feet and floats in front of you. Like a hummingbird,

624
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 1: and you can get up to sixty seconds. It's kind

625
00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 1: of like an indoor it's kind of like a video selfie.

626
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: Then you've got the reveal. This is kind of that

627
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 1: fun shot that we see all the time on movies

628
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: and TV shows where the drone starts above you and

629
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 1: then it just flies way up in the air and

630
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 1: it reveals kind of like the whole area around you.

631
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 1: So that's really cool. Then there's follow which it will

632
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: follow you, but very very slowly. Joanna said that its

633
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 1: struggled to keep up with her casual walking speed. And

634
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 1: then there's the orbit, which makes a full circle around

635
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 1: you and records that. So it's cool and I think

636
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: that you like Snap calls themselves a camera company, now

637
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: they're not just like they don't want to be known

638
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 1: as just for Snapchat, so they're trying new things with cameras,

639
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 1: and also snap is going to be on the cutting

640
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 1: edge of virtual reality as well. You can't count out

641
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 1: these companies. They have very smart people working there. And

642
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 1: although what they're doing right now, like this drone, you'd

643
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 1: be like, that's not really like, I'm not spending two

644
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty dollars on it. It's part of a

645
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,520
Speaker 1: bigger picture that they're building. And that's really what's happening

646
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 1: here with so many of these companies. Right. Let's take

647
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: another question here, Oh, I can actually use my Oh no,

648
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 1: it's not a I shouldn't. I need the dial tones again?

649
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 2: Two on three? Who am I speaking with? You're on

650
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 2: with Rich?

651
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 4: Hi is Deon?

652
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 2: Hi Deon? How are you?

653
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 7: Ok? Hi?

654
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 4: I'm well, thank you?

655
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 2: Where are you calling it from?

656
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 4: In my storage?

657
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 2: I'm calling from Inglewood? Okay, you're in here, You're in

658
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 2: your storage?

659
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 4: And uh huh. And I got an old computer, and

660
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 4: I remember watching me on the show one the News

661
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 4: a couple of weeks ago, and you mentioned software or

662
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 4: an app to put one advice to make them terment.

663
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 4: I went on the website and I can't find it.

664
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 1: You know, you have the number one question of anyone,

665
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 1: not the software, But I can't find what you talked

666
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 1: about on TV. So let me, uh, first off, let

667
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 1: me first off give you my trick for finding anything

668
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 1: that I've mentioned on TV. So I always search for

669
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: like one keyword, which is like, you know, old computer,

670
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: new software, and then I add DeMuro ktla or ktla

671
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 1: DeMuro and that nine times out of ten when I

672
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: need to search for something, because people text me all

673
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 1: day saying, hey, rich, can I you know what's this story?

674
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 1: And I just find the link that way, So that

675
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 1: nine times out of ten if you ever hear me

676
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: mention something on TV or social media, that's kind of

677
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 1: like how I find it and how most people can

678
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 1: find it. What you are specifically referring to is called

679
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 1: Chrome os Flex, and this was software that is put

680
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 1: out by Google to turn an old computer into a chromebook.

681
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: And what a chromebook does is it is fast, it

682
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 1: has software updates, it doesn't need a lot of memory

683
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: or processing power to run really fast, and it can

684
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: really breathe life into an old computer.

685
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 2: Like you said, you have one of these things. It's

686
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 2: free to download, it's free to install. But here is

687
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 2: the problem, deionn.

688
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 1: I talked to an expert who tested this out for me, okay,

689
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 1: and he installs Chrome on a lot of computers, and

690
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 1: he said that quite honestly, this is not ready for

691
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: primetime just yet, because we're going to do a story

692
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 1: for KTLA, a bigger story on testing it out and

693
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 1: showing how it works. And he said, it's just not

694
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 1: ready yet. So the good news is that you can

695
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: still try it if you want to try it yourself.

696
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 1: It's fully downloadable. You can put it on a USB drive,

697
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 1: you can put it on the computer, and you can

698
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 1: see how it works if you can get it to work.

699
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 1: I tried a little bit just quickly to see if

700
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 1: I can get this to work, and I just got

701
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 1: stalled at something and then I got distracted. But once

702
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 1: I talked to this expert, he said, Rich, it's better

703
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 1: before you go prime time with this and show everyone

704
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 1: exactly how it works.

705
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 2: Let's make sure it works really well.

706
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 4: And so.

707
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: I would say, maybe, wait a little bit, but what

708
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 1: are you hoping to do with this computer? It's just

709
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 1: kind of browsed the web or what.

710
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm looking to get back in the job. Oh

711
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 4: and I don't want to send in the library all day.

712
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: Okay, So basically like doing resumes and all that kind

713
00:33:58,680 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 1: of stuff, do you have.

714
00:33:59,320 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 2: A good resume?

715
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:00,360
Speaker 4: Exactly?

716
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 2: Exactly do you have a good resume?

717
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 7: Not just yet.

718
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:06,920
Speaker 4: I feel like I need to tweak it.

719
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 1: Okay, let me let me give you a hint here.

720
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 1: I've got a oh my gosh, I gotta find this

721
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: because I've got a a website that I found that

722
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,759
Speaker 1: helps you do a It'll write a resume for you

723
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 1: for free. So tell me, tell me about what you'd

724
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: want to do while I look for this.

725
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 4: Well I have I've been a hairstylist for twenty years.

726
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 2: Oh wow.

727
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 7: And then with COVID nineteen coming through, it's like, Okay,

728
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 7: now I need to get a second career because I

729
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:38,879
Speaker 7: was considered non.

730
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 2: Essential, which is ridiculous.

731
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 7: Ridiculous, right, But I have a bit of history in

732
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 7: customer service, you know, working in Macy's and that kind

733
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:57,240
Speaker 7: of stuff. And also my husband passed away of heart disease,

734
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:02,360
Speaker 7: so that sent me into becoming a mat. So before

735
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,480
Speaker 7: he passed away, I was like, you know what, I

736
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 7: think I can do CNA work and then I, you know, continue,

737
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 7: you didn't continue. But now I'd rather I'd rather do

738
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:14,440
Speaker 7: health care than.

739
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:15,360
Speaker 4: Any of these things.

740
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 7: Okay, So you want to help get and I need

741
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 7: to do resume in health care.

742
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 1: Okay, So you want to you want to like in

743
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,360
Speaker 1: home care and stuff like that, right, and that's a

744
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 1: that's a that's a growing area too.

745
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 2: Okay.

746
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 1: I found the website. It's called Leaked Resumes l E. E. T.

747
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 1: Resumes dot com and so it says they will write

748
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 1: your resume for free if you're a professional with two

749
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 1: years of experience in the US and Canada and the

750
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,560
Speaker 1: only thing they work on is a tip. So I

751
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 1: would say give this a shot, check it out. I've

752
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,879
Speaker 1: interviewed the guy who helped start this website and he's

753
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 1: a very smart guy, so I think that he's probably

754
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 1: doing really cool stuff with this. But Diane, good luck

755
00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:00,479
Speaker 1: with everything, and thanks so much for calling. The fact

756
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: that I can take calls on the show, it's it's

757
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: like the most fun thing for me. All Right, let's

758
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,800
Speaker 1: talk about the next story, which I'm gonna kind of

759
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 1: be a little negative about. But Charter and Comcast are

760
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:16,960
Speaker 1: developing a streaming platform now. So if you think of

761
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:20,800
Speaker 1: streaming platforms, we have Apple TV with tvOS, we have

762
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: Amazon's Fire TV, We've got Chrome Cast, We've got Roku.

763
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:31,840
Speaker 1: You know, those are the main, like big platforms for streaming.

764
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 1: So when you have a device for streaming, it's or

765
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 1: you know, you might have a Samsung TV that has

766
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 1: their streaming stuff built in. If you've listened to me

767
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:40,840
Speaker 1: for a while, you know that I personally like to

768
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 1: choose one of the major streaming platforms, whether it is

769
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 1: Apple TV, whether it's Roku TV, whether it is.

770
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 2: Five.

771
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,480
Speaker 1: Those are the three Fire, Roku, and Apple, all the

772
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,840
Speaker 1: ones that are built into the TVs. They're okay and

773
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 1: they work as long as the apps that you want

774
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,839
Speaker 1: are on there. But I've mentioned this before. Apps are

775
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 1: updated more often on these kind of what I would

776
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 1: call core platforms. So that's why I really like them,

777
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: because you're getting the latest, greatest, up to date apps.

778
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,800
Speaker 1: But if what's working for you, if what you have

779
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,400
Speaker 1: on your TV is working, it's absolutely just fine. So

780
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,360
Speaker 1: don't don't get too caught up in that part of it.

781
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 1: So Comcast and and Charter are coming up with their

782
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:26,400
Speaker 1: own platform, which I can't imagine a world where I

783
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 1: would ever want to seed my platform to a giant

784
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:31,800
Speaker 1: cable company.

785
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 2: I just can't imagine why.

786
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:37,279
Speaker 1: How can they do something better than an Amazon or

787
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:41,480
Speaker 1: an Apple or a Roku, which is a nice independent

788
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: company like Comcast and and Charter do not have and this,

789
00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:50,239
Speaker 1: you know, this is my opinion, they do not have

790
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 1: the same intentions or the best intentions of the you know,

791
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 1: of the customer in mind, because you know, they've got

792
00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: so many businesses like you know, Charter. If you think

793
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 1: about them, you know, they're they're trying to you know,

794
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 1: sell you Internet and they're trying to sell you cable

795
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 1: TV and comcasts. You know, they own NBC and they

796
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 1: own all these other you know, the Peacock Network or

797
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 1: the Peacock platform and all this stuff.

798
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 2: So you know, it's tough for them to say, oh,

799
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 2: let's really push Netflix. Now.

800
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that this platform is not going to

801
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:21,799
Speaker 1: be okay, and it's not. You know, they're gonna get

802
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 1: a lot of people on it. They're gonna come out

803
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: with TVs, they're gonna come out with streaming boxes. But

804
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,279
Speaker 1: the reality is I don't want it, and I just

805
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:34,160
Speaker 1: don't see why anyone would want it, because, uh, it's

806
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:35,840
Speaker 1: just one of these things where I'd rather go with

807
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:38,560
Speaker 1: a kind of a third party independent company rather than

808
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,520
Speaker 1: a big cable company. And part of that reason is

809
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 1: because they have they have crossed us in the past.

810
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 1: You know, they have proven time and time again with

811
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 1: the price increases, with the you know, the modem rental fees.

812
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 2: And all these little things. There's a there's always a gotcha,

813
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. And it's just something.

814
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 1: When I plug in my Amazon Fire TV stick, it

815
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,879
Speaker 1: works really well. Amazon customer service is really good.

816
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 2: When I use.

817
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 1: Roku, they offer everything everyone's on that platform. Yeah, they

818
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 1: have some problems once in a while with some of

819
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 1: the providers, and you know it's a money grab and

820
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:13,360
Speaker 1: this and that, but you know, Apple TV it works

821
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,719
Speaker 1: really well. The apps are really nice. So again I'm

822
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: just telling you what's coming up because you will see

823
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,799
Speaker 1: this and this. Because it's marketed by Comcast and Charter,

824
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,240
Speaker 1: it will be a big deal because they're.

825
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:27,399
Speaker 2: Gonna sell it to a lot of people.

826
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 1: Now, when they sell you cable, they're gonna say, hey,

827
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:31,839
Speaker 1: by the way, we can send you a box for free,

828
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: and you know you can use that box to stream

829
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 1: all your stuff.

830
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:36,319
Speaker 2: And you're gonna say, oh, okay, that's cool.

831
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 1: And you know, next thing, you know, you've got this

832
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 1: streaming box from Comcast and Charter, which you know, who

833
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:43,719
Speaker 1: knows is if it's gonna be very good.

834
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 3: I don't know.

835
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 1: I'm just maybe I'm being too negative about this, but

836
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 1: I'm I'm kind of a pessimist when it comes to large,

837
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:54,240
Speaker 1: large companies like this trying to do good for the customer.

838
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:57,800
Speaker 1: Like I just can't imagine that this could be a

839
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 1: good thing. And you know, you can challenge me on it,

840
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 1: put it in the comments. But the reality is I've

841
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 1: never really sat there and said like, oh, I love

842
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:09,240
Speaker 1: my cable company.

843
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 2: I love my you know, Mike.

844
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,879
Speaker 1: I mean, look at cable boxes for the longest time.

845
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 1: The screen on the cable box was like trapped in

846
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,240
Speaker 1: the eighties. Why because they had no incentive to change,

847
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,319
Speaker 1: and if you called them to like get a new box,

848
00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 1: they would charge you for the upgraded box.

849
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just the way it works. So that's

850
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 2: just you know, my, my thoughts.

851
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,320
Speaker 1: But you're listening to the rich On Tech Show, so

852
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,520
Speaker 1: of course I am allowed to share my thoughts. Let's

853
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,839
Speaker 1: go to nine oh nine, nine oh nine, you are

854
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 1: on with rich Who's this.

855
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 2: Mike? How you doing, Mike? Welcome to the show. Hi

856
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 2: doing well, Thank you great.

857
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,520
Speaker 6: I'm just wondering what you thought about direct TV stream.

858
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, if you were hearing my if you were

859
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,760
Speaker 1: hearing me go off about what I was just saying

860
00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 1: with the Comcast and Charter, I probably won't be as

861
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:00,880
Speaker 1: kind about DirecTV stream. Now.

862
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,480
Speaker 2: Direct TV stream is kind.

863
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:08,439
Speaker 1: Of like, uh, is that basically there that that old

864
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 1: it's like a cable provider, right, but all streaming.

865
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:12,680
Speaker 2: Yeah?

866
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 4: Correct?

867
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:15,439
Speaker 2: So was this the old? Okay?

868
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 1: I remember covering this because I was at like the

869
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 1: launch thing, but it was like AT and T had

870
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,360
Speaker 1: like a streaming cable thing for a while, and I

871
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 1: was a subscriber for a long like a year.

872
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 2: I think I got But what was that called? Do

873
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 2: you remember that? I think it became DirecTV stream?

874
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 6: Yeah. I think it was AT and T stream or

875
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 6: something like.

876
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:39,359
Speaker 1: That, AT and T now, at and T TV now.

877
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 1: So that's what it was, and I had this. Okay,

878
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 1: So here's here's my thing. I think this is cool

879
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 1: if if it has you know, if you want that

880
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 1: kind of cable experience, you want cable channels. You know,

881
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 1: Direct TV is in a precarious position because for many

882
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 1: many years they were the leader. You know that you

883
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 1: couldn't challenge Direct TV because they had satellites, They had

884
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 1: access to content and programming that nobody else had. And

885
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,360
Speaker 1: that may still be the case with certain things on

886
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 1: this direct TV stream. So what is it that appeals

887
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,360
Speaker 1: to you about this specifically? Is it some kind of

888
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 1: programming you can get on there?

889
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 6: Well, the programming is great. It's nice because my mom

890
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 6: is disabled and I'm able to have it at her

891
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 6: home as well as ours. But then we can watch

892
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,319
Speaker 6: it anywhere we go. So that's what makes it pretty cool.

893
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:35,279
Speaker 2: And what do you pay?

894
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm looking at the prices. It's like, see, now

895
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 1: here's one thing I don't like. It's you know, you've

896
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 1: get these these starter prices where it's fifty nine ninety

897
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 1: nine for the first three months, and then it goes

898
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 1: up to sixty nine ninety nine and then you get

899
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:49,920
Speaker 1: the premiere for one hundred and fifty bucks and it's

900
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 1: you know, it's just it kind of reminds me of

901
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,439
Speaker 1: the old cable pricing. Now, with all of that said,

902
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 1: I'm looking at you get unlimited Cloud DVR, which is included,

903
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 1: you get you know, you can choose from these four packages.

904
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 2: You can stream you know, anywhere you want, and you've

905
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 2: got all these.

906
00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:08,120
Speaker 1: Different networks, and it looks like the main thing that

907
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 1: they offer that nobody else does is they've got more

908
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:14,080
Speaker 1: regional sports. Is that kind of something you are interested

909
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 1: as well? Not necessarily, no, okay, And it looks like

910
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 1: it works on the different streaming boxes or you can

911
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 1: get their device.

912
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 2: Do you have their device with this, the stream device?

913
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,720
Speaker 6: No, I have no devices. I just have the smart TVs.

914
00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 1: Okay, I mean, you know what I'm looking at here

915
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:36,759
Speaker 1: is it seems like it's very similar to what you

916
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 1: get with like YouTube and you know, Hulu or Sling TV,

917
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:42,759
Speaker 1: So I would kind of put this all in the

918
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 1: same bucket as those. So in that case, I would

919
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 1: just go with the one that offers the channels you want.

920
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 1: It sounds like if it's working for you, I have

921
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 1: no problem with it. I mean, I would definitely do

922
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:55,120
Speaker 1: a price check to see what you're paying for this

923
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:59,840
Speaker 1: versus something like a YouTube TV. If it, you know,

924
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,760
Speaker 1: if it gives you those same things for that price,

925
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 1: then I you know, I think stick to it until

926
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,560
Speaker 1: they either raise the price or something like that, or

927
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:10,719
Speaker 1: they do something that you don't like, and then you know.

928
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:12,960
Speaker 1: But it seems fine. I mean, it just seems like

929
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:15,600
Speaker 1: it's a it's a cable TV service that's delivered through

930
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:19,000
Speaker 1: the internet and that with the unlimited DVR, which and

931
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 1: it sounds like you can use it at different places,

932
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:24,080
Speaker 1: which is nice. So I don't see a problem with this, Mike,

933
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,880
Speaker 1: I really don't, Okay.

934
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 6: We love watching you on the channel type. Thanks so much.

935
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 1: Now my question is do they have Channel five on

936
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:34,960
Speaker 1: this direct TV stream? I'm trying to remember if it

937
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:35,680
Speaker 1: was on AT and T.

938
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,360
Speaker 2: I don't think it. Oh they don't go.

939
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:42,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well that's not really a direct TV thing, that's honestly,

940
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:46,120
Speaker 1: it's a KTLA thing. It's our our parent company the

941
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:49,520
Speaker 1: way it was before and this our new company is

942
00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:51,879
Speaker 1: now doing. You know, we have the app that's free

943
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 1: and so that's nice. But for a while we weren't

944
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:56,480
Speaker 1: on sort of any streaming and that was that was

945
00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:58,680
Speaker 1: definitely a tough period. But at least you can get

946
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,880
Speaker 1: us for free somehow, and it's you know, we're not

947
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:05,080
Speaker 1: on the streaming services per se, but you know, people

948
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,279
Speaker 1: are finding us on KTLA Plus, which is nice and

949
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:11,920
Speaker 1: also you know over the air, right all right, Well,

950
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 1: I know I know Temecula, Well I know, uh do

951
00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:15,320
Speaker 1: you know where Clinton Keith Road.

952
00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:15,799
Speaker 2: Is over there?

953
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:18,160
Speaker 6: I absolutely do.

954
00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:20,560
Speaker 2: Harvest and Lake Okay.

955
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:25,120
Speaker 1: I used to my wife's grandma and grandfather lived out there,

956
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:28,359
Speaker 1: so we would come to Temecula and you know, hang

957
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:31,640
Speaker 1: out there. Sometimes I'd sneak off to uh Pachanga for

958
00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:33,799
Speaker 1: a bit and uh, while the family was all meeting.

959
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:36,799
Speaker 1: But it's a it's a nice place and uh it's

960
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 1: it's uh, you know, probably getting hotter soon out there, though,

961
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:40,600
Speaker 1: for sure.

962
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 6: Yes, it's a beautiful city. It's a great place to

963
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,440
Speaker 6: raise a family. I've been here my entire life. My

964
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:49,879
Speaker 6: parents came here in nineteen seventy seven, so we've seen

965
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 6: a lot of growth. Yeah, and Clinton Keith like two

966
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 6: exits down from us. It's not that far and they're

967
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 6: actually building a brand new Costco that's opening in June.

968
00:45:58,120 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 6: So that'll be exciting.

969
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 1: Oh that's that's always exciting, a new cost go we

970
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:04,279
Speaker 1: you know, all right, Mike, Well, thanks for calling in.

971
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:04,880
Speaker 2: Appreciate it.

972
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:08,439
Speaker 1: I'm glad the calls worked. And again I'm still quite

973
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 1: impressed with this little setup I have because it's the

974
00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 1: easiest setup I've ever had.

975
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:13,399
Speaker 2: And so it's kind of fun.

976
00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:19,480
Speaker 1: Jason says on the on the chat from Seami Valley,

977
00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:22,000
Speaker 1: Me and my family enjoy watching your category bit on

978
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,840
Speaker 1: KTLA five. Thank you, Jason, it's funny. I you know,

979
00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:28,160
Speaker 1: I've been on KTLA. I was thinking about this. You know,

980
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 1: I've been on there for ten plus years now, which

981
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 1: is just absolutely wild.

982
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:32,640
Speaker 4: To me.

983
00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:36,879
Speaker 1: But also it's really wild to me just how many

984
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:42,279
Speaker 1: people that KTLA reaches. It never ceases to amaze me

985
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:45,320
Speaker 1: no matter where I am, whether I'm in LA or

986
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:48,280
Speaker 1: another city in America, you know, because they do syndicate

987
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:48,800
Speaker 1: the segment.

988
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 2: It's just it's just pretty.

989
00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:53,080
Speaker 1: Wild that, Like, I've been in the oddest places and

990
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:54,960
Speaker 1: people come up to me and hey, rich, I like

991
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 1: your segment. And the good news is when people come

992
00:46:57,640 --> 00:46:59,680
Speaker 1: up to me, it's always like they're very nice and

993
00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:01,680
Speaker 1: they're always like, I like your stuff, which is good.

994
00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:03,640
Speaker 2: I've yet to have someone come up and be like,

995
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:07,080
Speaker 2: your segment is the worst You're you know, blah blah blah.

996
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:10,040
Speaker 1: So I do like the fact that people like what

997
00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:13,319
Speaker 1: I'm doing, so I'll keep doing it. All right, let's

998
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:16,000
Speaker 1: talk about Google Search. Two things today that I posted

999
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:19,640
Speaker 1: about Google. So, number one, they've got a new forum

1000
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:23,600
Speaker 1: or not a form, a form where you can request

1001
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,719
Speaker 1: to have some of your personal identifiable information removed from

1002
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:27,319
Speaker 1: Google Search.

1003
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:28,880
Speaker 2: Now here's the thing.

1004
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:32,360
Speaker 1: This sounds good, and the reality of it is that

1005
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 1: it's not necessarily what you probably need. So if you've

1006
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 1: ever been on Google Search and you've searched your own name.

1007
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:44,920
Speaker 1: You've probably noticed that your phone numbers on there, your

1008
00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:48,520
Speaker 1: address is on there, all kinds of information. If you

1009
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:50,919
Speaker 1: go to a website I think it's called I don't

1010
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 1: even want to give them a publicity because it's so scary.

1011
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:55,799
Speaker 2: But if you go to a website called fast.

1012
00:47:55,640 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 1: People Search, you can basically find information about anyone because

1013
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,560
Speaker 1: what they're doing is they're calling all of these public

1014
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:06,080
Speaker 1: records and putting it into an easy to search and

1015
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 1: find database.

1016
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:09,880
Speaker 2: And it's perfectly legal. That's the thing.

1017
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:11,600
Speaker 1: If you've bought a house or if you've done some

1018
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 1: sort of business, it's it's all there and it's all legal,

1019
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,520
Speaker 1: So they're not gonna take that kind of stuff down.

1020
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:21,480
Speaker 1: What what Google will now take down is you know

1021
00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:24,640
Speaker 1: your contact information, phone number, email address, physical address, but

1022
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 1: only if you're somehow at risk, right if someone is

1023
00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 1: harassing you, if someone is intentionally putting this information out

1024
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:36,160
Speaker 1: there to you know, to really you know, to put

1025
00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:38,560
Speaker 1: you at risk, your family at risk, you at risk,

1026
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:42,279
Speaker 1: And so they will then take that information down from

1027
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:45,440
Speaker 1: their search, not from the original website. Google does not

1028
00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:48,440
Speaker 1: have the ability to go to the website itself and

1029
00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:51,040
Speaker 1: take it down. But since Google Search is so big

1030
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:53,439
Speaker 1: and prominent. If they take it off of their search,

1031
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:56,360
Speaker 1: it's going to be tougher to people for finding that information.

1032
00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:57,000
Speaker 4: Uh.

1033
00:48:57,080 --> 00:48:58,360
Speaker 2: This is often called dosing.

1034
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 1: That's when basic least someone happens to journalists a lot,

1035
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:05,359
Speaker 1: where you know, someone gets doxed or anyone. It could

1036
00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:08,920
Speaker 1: be anyone in the public light, could be anyone in general,

1037
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:12,759
Speaker 1: I guess. But they basically put your information out there saying, hey,

1038
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:14,520
Speaker 1: here's here's their information.

1039
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:15,759
Speaker 2: Do with it what you want.

1040
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, maybe you show up in front of

1041
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:21,200
Speaker 1: their house and protest about something. And so that's really

1042
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:25,120
Speaker 1: called doxing someone and or you know, scaring someone or whatever.

1043
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,120
Speaker 2: It's not very nice. It happens a lot, it is.

1044
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:32,640
Speaker 1: Sometimes it happens inadvertently, like let's say you screenshot a

1045
00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:35,560
Speaker 1: text message with someone that said something mean to you

1046
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:37,120
Speaker 1: and you kind of put their name out there or

1047
00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 1: the user name. That's that's pretty much doxing, where you're

1048
00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:42,800
Speaker 1: basically like, oh, I'm sorry, did I put your information

1049
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:43,279
Speaker 1: out there.

1050
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:45,200
Speaker 2: It's not a very nice thing to do.

1051
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:48,480
Speaker 1: So anyway, Google will they have a new form where

1052
00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:50,120
Speaker 1: you can fill out and say, hey, I think that

1053
00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:54,839
Speaker 1: I'm at risk, and they will review that and see

1054
00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:56,960
Speaker 1: if they will take down that information. If it comes

1055
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 1: from a public source like a you know, a government

1056
00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:01,279
Speaker 1: record or something, they're not going to take it down.

1057
00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:03,480
Speaker 1: So it's only if someone put it up there maliciously.

1058
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:06,000
Speaker 1: I've got the link on how to do that on

1059
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:10,040
Speaker 1: the website rich on Tech dot tv. The other thing

1060
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:11,600
Speaker 1: that Google can do, and this is kind of cool.

1061
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 1: I made a video about this on my Instagram today,

1062
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 1: so if you want to check it out, go to

1063
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 1: my Instagram at rich on Tech.

1064
00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:19,200
Speaker 2: But they have a new feature that lets you.

1065
00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:24,840
Speaker 1: See fewer ads in certain categories including weight loss, pregnancy

1066
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:28,760
Speaker 1: and parenting and dating ads and also alcohol and gambling.

1067
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:31,800
Speaker 2: So you can go on this website ads.

1068
00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:37,960
Speaker 1: It's Ads Ads ads settings dot Google dot com and

1069
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,040
Speaker 1: it will give you a picture of who you are.

1070
00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:42,520
Speaker 1: So I went to this website this morning. And you

1071
00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 1: can also turn off ad personalization in general. Personally, I

1072
00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:51,399
Speaker 1: leave AD personalization on because if I'm seeing ads, then

1073
00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:53,360
Speaker 1: I want to see ads that are personalized for me.

1074
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 1: Oh and Jason just said here on twitch, me and

1075
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:01,799
Speaker 1: other streamers always have to be careful about dosing. It's

1076
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:05,359
Speaker 1: an issue on live streaming. Very true because let's say

1077
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:08,239
Speaker 1: this actually happened to me on TV one time. I

1078
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:11,040
Speaker 1: was showing something on my phone and my wife's phone

1079
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:11,880
Speaker 1: number popped up.

1080
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 2: And I am not kidding.

1081
00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:16,279
Speaker 1: She got so many phone calls. This was at five

1082
00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:18,720
Speaker 1: thirty in the morning. She got so many phone calls

1083
00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:20,480
Speaker 1: all at once. Everyone thought it was my number for

1084
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:23,040
Speaker 1: some reason, so they're just starting. They weren't nice. Everyone

1085
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:25,040
Speaker 1: was very nice, but they would just call like it

1086
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:27,480
Speaker 1: was like the circuit the all circuits were busy. It

1087
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:29,440
Speaker 1: was that many people, and it was a total mistake

1088
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,440
Speaker 1: on my part, but I guess I really did docs her.

1089
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:34,360
Speaker 2: Let's see what the definition of DOS is.

1090
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:40,840
Speaker 1: On docs is okay search for and publish private or

1091
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:44,800
Speaker 1: identifying information about a particular individual on the Internet, typically

1092
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:50,560
Speaker 1: with malicious intent, So quote unquote hackers and online vigilantes

1093
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:53,240
Speaker 1: routinely docs both public and private figures.

1094
00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:55,440
Speaker 2: So that's the definition of it.

1095
00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:58,719
Speaker 1: But anyway, I tried calling my wife to tell her

1096
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:00,959
Speaker 1: what happened, and I couldn't get through to her because

1097
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 1: so many people are calling her phone number, and so

1098
00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 1: I ended up texting her and she was like, what

1099
00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:07,040
Speaker 1: just happened?

1100
00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 2: And I was like sorry.

1101
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:12,480
Speaker 1: And some people actually stored her phone number for a

1102
00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:14,960
Speaker 1: long time, and they would text her at random times

1103
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:16,880
Speaker 1: to like get in touch with me. It was really funny.

1104
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 1: So that's simmered down, so it's all good at this point. Anyways,

1105
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:25,120
Speaker 1: So you can go to ads settings dot Google dot

1106
00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:27,200
Speaker 1: com and see what Google thinks it knows about you.

1107
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:31,960
Speaker 1: For me, it thinks that I'm into lows door, dash, Accura,

1108
00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:36,359
Speaker 1: air travel, android, apps, apparel, auto exterior, which is true.

1109
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:37,399
Speaker 2: I like to clean my car.

1110
00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:45,120
Speaker 1: Beaches and islands, sure, Big Island, Hawaii, BMW, Boston Metro Like, no,

1111
00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:46,959
Speaker 1: I'm not really into the Boston Metro.

1112
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:51,600
Speaker 2: I don't know what that means. Casual games, commercial properties,

1113
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

1114
00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:55,799
Speaker 1: Credit cards. I do have one credit card, but I've

1115
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:59,040
Speaker 1: talked about how it's funny. I'm obsessed with credit card research,

1116
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:01,040
Speaker 1: but I don't actually get credit cards because I like

1117
00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:07,560
Speaker 1: to use my debit card. Face and body care, I mean, okay, guilty.

1118
00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:11,840
Speaker 1: I don't know flowers, food, GPS and navigation. I mean,

1119
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:15,840
Speaker 1: who's not into GPS and navigation, horror films, hybrid and

1120
00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:17,000
Speaker 1: alternative vehicles.

1121
00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:18,320
Speaker 2: Okay, I'll give you that.

1122
00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:18,839
Speaker 6: Now.

1123
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:21,000
Speaker 1: A lot of this stuff is because I, oh this

1124
00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:24,640
Speaker 1: is one. I took issue with parental status not a parent,

1125
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:26,440
Speaker 1: So you can go in there and I can turn

1126
00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:28,759
Speaker 1: this off. I can't believe that it thinks I am

1127
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:31,760
Speaker 1: not a parent. That's really sad. I am a parent,

1128
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:33,600
Speaker 1: so now I'm parenting.

1129
00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:33,960
Speaker 2: Okay.

1130
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:36,320
Speaker 1: Anyway, if you scroll all the way down to the bottom,

1131
00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 1: you can turn off these sensitive ad categories including alcohol, dating, gambling, pregnancy,

1132
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:44,320
Speaker 1: and weight loss. Two more stories I do want to

1133
00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:47,360
Speaker 1: get through because I think they're important. Number One, Fidelity

1134
00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:50,800
Speaker 1: is going to allow retirement plans to have bitcoin for

1135
00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:53,959
Speaker 1: the first time. So Fidelity is a company that does

1136
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:59,000
Speaker 1: handles many of the retirement plans for twenty three thousand companies,

1137
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:02,880
Speaker 1: and so the fact that they're allowing those companies to

1138
00:54:02,960 --> 00:54:07,240
Speaker 1: give their users or their employees access to bitcoin inside

1139
00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:09,640
Speaker 1: their four to one K is a huge deal. Now,

1140
00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:12,399
Speaker 1: as we know, bitcoin all over the place. Some people

1141
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:14,800
Speaker 1: love it, some people don't really understand what it is.

1142
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:17,120
Speaker 1: The rest of the folks are just sort of in

1143
00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:19,680
Speaker 1: the middle, just maybe have a small position in some

1144
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:22,759
Speaker 1: app like Robinhood. But the fact that they're allowing people

1145
00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 1: to add bitcoin to their four oh one k's that's

1146
00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:29,120
Speaker 1: a pretty big deal because this is a big, legitimate company. Obviously,

1147
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:33,120
Speaker 1: you know they make money. I'm guessing somehow on fees

1148
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:36,400
Speaker 1: on you know, providing this service and your inside your

1149
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,840
Speaker 1: retirement plan. You know, retirement plans do have fees, but

1150
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:43,320
Speaker 1: they're they're not really noticeable unless you look at your statements.

1151
00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:44,759
Speaker 1: But if you look at your statements, you are being

1152
00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:48,400
Speaker 1: charged retirement plan fees through your company. It's usually in

1153
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:50,759
Speaker 1: your statement at the bottom it says like a some

1154
00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:52,840
Speaker 1: sort of fee that you know they take out of

1155
00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:56,399
Speaker 1: your retirement basically. Anyway, I thought that was a really

1156
00:54:56,440 --> 00:55:00,239
Speaker 1: big deal. And the other story I wanted to mention

1157
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:03,000
Speaker 1: because this is a question I get a lot, but

1158
00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:05,319
Speaker 1: a lot of people have hearing aids and they want

1159
00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:07,239
Speaker 1: to be able to listen to the TV through those

1160
00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:07,839
Speaker 1: hearing aids.

1161
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:09,800
Speaker 2: A lot of the new high tech hearing.

1162
00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:13,520
Speaker 1: Aids are basically Bluetooth compatible or some sort of wireless

1163
00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:16,920
Speaker 1: compatibility either connect to your smartphone or you know, different

1164
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:23,880
Speaker 1: things using Bluetooth, and so fireTV now the fireTV Cube

1165
00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:27,920
Speaker 1: can connect directly to hearing aids. So this is very important.

1166
00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:29,480
Speaker 1: If you have a loved one in your life that

1167
00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:32,520
Speaker 1: has hearing aids, it might be time to get a

1168
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:34,799
Speaker 1: fire TV Cube because if they have some of these

1169
00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:38,080
Speaker 1: high tech hearing aids, you can just literally link them

1170
00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:40,279
Speaker 1: up with the fireTV. Now they can listen through their

1171
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:42,760
Speaker 1: hearing aids to whatever is on that streaming player.

1172
00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:45,440
Speaker 2: So this is the first.

1173
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 1: Streaming media player to support audio streaming for hearing aids

1174
00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:55,160
Speaker 1: commonly known as ASHA, so it's pretty cool you connect

1175
00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:58,480
Speaker 1: them directly. It works with various hearing aids, including brands

1176
00:55:58,520 --> 00:55:59,640
Speaker 1: from Starkey.

1177
00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:03,520
Speaker 2: All Audible, New Ear, micro Tech, and Audigy.

1178
00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:06,520
Speaker 1: So this is something again that you should look into

1179
00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:09,239
Speaker 1: if you've got someone that has hearing aids and they

1180
00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:13,719
Speaker 1: want an easier way to listen to streaming stuff. That's

1181
00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:16,360
Speaker 1: this is a pretty big deal and and kudos to

1182
00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:22,120
Speaker 1: Amazon for putting that functionality inside the fire TV Cube.

1183
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:24,480
Speaker 1: So again, it's only the fire TV Cube and it

1184
00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:26,799
Speaker 1: has to be certain hearing aids for this to work,

1185
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:28,399
Speaker 1: but I think that's a pretty big deal.

1186
00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:29,000
Speaker 2: All right.

1187
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:31,000
Speaker 1: If if you want to get in on the line

1188
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:34,000
Speaker 1: before I go, it's area code three one nine five

1189
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:36,799
Speaker 1: two seven six seven three seven. I'll take one more

1190
00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:40,399
Speaker 1: question if I have the time, but that's pretty much

1191
00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:42,160
Speaker 1: gonna do it for this show. Let me see what

1192
00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:46,399
Speaker 1: else do I have here? Let's see here. Oh my gosh,

1193
00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:51,040
Speaker 1: so many questions. Uh, Cindy says, Hey, Rich, I love

1194
00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 1: the Samsung Fold, but it was still too thick for

1195
00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:55,120
Speaker 1: my small hands. Is there anything on the horizon for

1196
00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 1: a small screen Android similar to the iPhone Mini?

1197
00:56:58,200 --> 00:56:59,799
Speaker 2: Which is perfect? But I'm an Android fan.

1198
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:04,280
Speaker 1: It's funny you say this, Cindy, because the iPhone fourteen

1199
00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:06,279
Speaker 1: apparently is not going to have a mini, so I

1200
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:09,439
Speaker 1: guess not many people purchase the iPhone fourteen Mini, which

1201
00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:12,719
Speaker 1: is a small, good sized phone. But I think it's

1202
00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:15,200
Speaker 1: funny because we saw this trend of bigger screens. People

1203
00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:16,840
Speaker 1: think that if it's a big screen, they're getting more

1204
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:19,240
Speaker 1: value for their money. So with the new iPhone, they're

1205
00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:20,600
Speaker 1: actually going the opposite direction.

1206
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:21,800
Speaker 2: They're giving the.

1207
00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:26,400
Speaker 1: iPhone Standard thirteen is going to come in a bigger

1208
00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:28,640
Speaker 1: version this time, so you're actually gonna be able to

1209
00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:32,520
Speaker 1: get a bigger iPhone sorry, iPhone fourteen and a bigger

1210
00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:34,960
Speaker 1: screen size for like two hundred dollars less than having

1211
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:35,360
Speaker 1: to go with.

1212
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:35,960
Speaker 2: The pro model.

1213
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:38,360
Speaker 1: So that's a pretty big deal. Let's see, we got

1214
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:42,040
Speaker 1: some comments here. Oh my gosh, Let's see what else

1215
00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:44,640
Speaker 1: do we have here? Oh, Jason said, keep up the

1216
00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:47,800
Speaker 1: good information and entertaining tech topics, and remember to.

1217
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:48,959
Speaker 2: Be careful of what you share.

1218
00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:52,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a challenge, you know, doing stuff that's like

1219
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:55,120
Speaker 1: ninety nine percent off my phone. I mean, I'm always

1220
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:57,560
Speaker 1: showing my phone screen, so it's really tough. Especially when

1221
00:57:57,560 --> 00:57:59,880
Speaker 1: you're doing like mapping apps and things. There's always some

1222
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:03,800
Speaker 1: sort of personal information on your phone screen. So, oh

1223
00:58:03,880 --> 00:58:07,920
Speaker 1: my gosh, you know what that sound means. That's gonna

1224
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:09,920
Speaker 1: do it for this episode of the show. If you

1225
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:11,840
Speaker 1: would like to submit a question for me to answer,
