1
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:10,719
Speaker 1: The Apple event invites have arrived. Google Photos gets a

00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: useful new feature, Fitbit has a new smart watch, testing

Speaker 1: out sprints new five G Plus. I'm answering your tech questions.

4
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 1: What's going on? I'm Rich Dimiro. This is Rich on Tech.

5
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: This is the podcast where I talk about the tech

6
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 1: stuff I think you should know about. Plus, I answer

7
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: the questions that you email me, you tweet me, you

8
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: send me, you DM me, however you get message in

9
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 1: a bottle.

10
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 2: You asked me at the market, ask.

11
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 1: Me at the market, set me up at the market. Yeah, oh,

12
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:44,879
Speaker 1: inside jokes. They're always such a fun way to start

13
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,239
Speaker 1: a podcast. What's up, producer, Megan, you know.

14
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 2: This week is flying by.

15
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 1: I thought this was a very fast week. It was

16
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 1: a quick week, and now we have Labor Day approaching,

17
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: So either we'll have more people listening to the podcast

18
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 1: or more people not listening because they're on vacation. What

19
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: are you doing? I'll be on vacation. I'm taking the

20
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: day off, so I can't wait. I I've got a

21
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: family trip plan, so I'm excited to do that and

22
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 1: little R and R. I may not turn on my

23
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 1: phone for the I'll probably have my phone on I

24
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 1: probably won't be on social media. You know that. I

25
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: said in last week's episode that I had acquired a

26
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: Pixel three Excel smartphone, so I've been using that and

27
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: it's interesting. Number One, I will tell you when you

28
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: use Android, like I go back and forth throughout the

29
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 1: year with Android and iOS just to stay fresh. So

30
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,199
Speaker 1: it's funny because in the afternoons I'm all iOS because

31
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: I've been writing the book, and in the mornings I've

32
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 1: been using the Pixel And the funniest thing to me,

33
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: it was not funny. It's kind of sad that the

34
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: Android stuff does a lot of things better when it

35
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: comes to like anticipating your next move, but almost in

36
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: the camera, almost everything else is worse. Like I hate

37
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: to just knock it, but like I've gotten so used

38
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: to some of the simplest things on iosa, everything just

39
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: works when you get on Android. It's like who knows

40
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: what's gonna work. You try something, it's like it just

41
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: doesn't work. Like yesterday, what was I was trying to

42
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: like upload something? So you know, this way I like

43
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: to test both is I went through my normal workflow

44
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: of shooting an entire social media video on my phone

45
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 1: and editing it and posting it all through my phone

46
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 1: on my pixel, which is something that's very simple to

47
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: do on an iPhone. Well, the pixel, It's like it

48
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,119
Speaker 1: just everything was a lot slower. Everything was just took

49
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: a little bit more time, and then when you upload it,

50
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,839
Speaker 1: it's just I don't know. It's it's really tough because

51
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 1: I love Android and I love iOS, but I see

52
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 1: the beauty of why Apple has pulled so far ahead

53
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: because everything just seems to work. So long story short,

54
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: what I was gonna mention is one of the features

55
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,639
Speaker 1: that I'm really loving that they're adding to Android, which

56
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: is really cool, and it just appeared on my pixel.

57
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 1: I'm not running any special software, but it's called Focus Mode.

58
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: And what you do is you set up the apps

59
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: that distract you, and then with one tap, you can

60
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: press this focus mode. And those taps are those apps

61
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: not only get grayed out, but you can't use them,

62
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: but you also don't see any notifications from them during

63
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: that time. So I've been loving this because I'm let's

64
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 1: face it, we're all easily distracted with our smartphones. This

65
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: is just one of those things that makes it so

66
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: easy to just say, you know what, I want to

67
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: do something right now, I need a half an hour

68
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: or an hour or a couple of hours, and I'm

69
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: just going to enable this mode. And it's not forever, right,

70
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,239
Speaker 1: But it's just one of those things where if you

71
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: want to check it, you turn it off and all

72
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: your notifications then pop up. So you turn it on,

73
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: they go away, don't it's really got.

74
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 2: That stressed you out when they all pop up again.

75
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: No, I have my notification set so only important ones

76
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: actually notify me. So on Twitter, I don't get all

77
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: the tweets, I don't get all the likes and stuff,

78
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: And on Instagram, I don't get everything, so I only

79
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: get a couple anyway, and on Facebook I don't get

80
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: any so but anyway, it's just one of those cool

81
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: things that I've just been loving and I know you

82
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: can do. I actually wrote about this, I think, in

83
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: a blog post about you can kind of hack that

84
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: same feature on the iPhone if you who's the downtime feature.

85
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: But it's not as simple. It's not as like easy,

86
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: like there's not one tap to enable and disable, which

87
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: maybe Apple will do that in the future, because I

88
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: think that's really cool. One other thing I wanted to

89
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: bring up before we get into the meat of the podcast,

90
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 1: is back up your stuff, Backup, Backup, back Up. Last

91
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 1: week's show, I talked about how my computer crashed, and

92
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: the main thing I was worried about was the fact

93
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: that my son's iPad pictures were on there. I went

94
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 1: into my time machine backup, which I don't do all

95
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: the time, but I do it kind of regularly, and

96
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,359
Speaker 1: I will tell you that the pictures are there. Ooh, big,

97
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: big relief. So yeah. So my other point is I've

98
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 1: been kind of holding off with the computer of kind

99
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 1: of reformatting it and seeing if the hard drive is

100
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: totally shot or if it can just be reformatted and

101
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: set up again. But now I know I can try

102
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:53,160
Speaker 1: it because I have a picture safe and sound so good. Okay,

103
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: So okay, let's move on to the first story of

104
00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: the podcast, which is the Apple Invite have officially gone

105
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: out join us on September tenth for a special event.

106
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 1: And it's funny because you noticed this but I didn't.

107
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: It says by innovation only, not invitation only. And it's

108
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: tough to describe what it looks like, but it's a

109
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 1: orb of an Apple logo kind of split in half.

110
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 1: Like a I would call it series style, like a

111
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 1: kind of that wavy look, and it's in different colors.

112
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: And this is happening at the Steve Jobs Theater in Cupertino,

113
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 1: where it normally does now. September tenth, twenty nineteen. This

114
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,359
Speaker 1: is the date that I had marked on my calendar.

115
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 1: They didn't want to do it on September eleventh. Obviously,

116
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 1: September ninth is Monday, it's too early, So September tenth perfect. Yeah,

117
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 1: So that is the date that I will be up in. Uh,

118
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 1: where's it Coupertino? I was gonna say San Clementy for

119
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 1: some reason? Where is that? I was gonna say San Clementi,

120
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:56,840
Speaker 1: But no San Francisco or Coupertino, gotcha? So very exciting, exciting.

121
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 1: What are you looking forward to most? Because I've been

122
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: playing with the iOS thirteen, so it's like I already

123
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 1: know everything that's happening with iOS. It's just a matter

124
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 1: of what's going to happen with the iPhone.

125
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 3: I mean, I feel like it's just going to look

126
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 3: exactly the same, which is what we've spoken about. There's

127
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 3: the camera that's the wide wide angle camera right that

128
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 3: you can now if you.

129
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 1: Take a picture, recrop it and all that stuff.

130
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 2: Recrop it. I mean, I don't know if I'm going.

131
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 1: To get it, because I what do you want? iPhone eight?

132
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 2: I'm on eight.

133
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I still have a home button. It might be

134
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: time for an upgrade. It might be time.

135
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 2: It might be time.

136
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 1: Oh that's the wrong time. This is the right time.

137
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, So this.

138
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,840
Speaker 1: For that sound if your first time listener means it

139
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: is time for producer Megan to select one of the

140
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: questions that you have emailed or sent me and read

141
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: it out.

142
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

143
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 3: So this first question comes from Rich's Facebook page, which

144
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 3: is Facebook dot com slash Rich on tech as Morelda writes,

145
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 3: she said, not sure if you've posted on issues regarding

146
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 3: the cam Scanner app, but she currently has a Samsung

147
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,039
Speaker 3: Note E and she uses the app regularly. And she's

148
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 3: noticed that several tech sites are saying to delete the

149
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 3: app off your phone.

150
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 2: Asapp it's safe to say that?

151
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 3: Or she asks is it safe to upload documents to

152
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 3: Google Drive or email them to myself? I would like

153
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 3: to preserve them somehow. Also, what alternative apps do you recommend?

154
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 3: And she says she's a big fan and she's freaking out.

155
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: Okay, I would probably get rid of this app just

156
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: based on principle alone, and that would be my thought.

157
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: I've never used cam Scanner. I'm not a fan of it.

158
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: I'm actually it's funny. In life, I'm never a fan

159
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 1: of like the number one thing. I'm always a fan

160
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: of it. I talked about this before. I'm always a

161
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: fan of the number two thing, except when it comes

162
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: to courses PEPSI. Oh, okay, But like everything else, like

163
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: almost everything else in life, if it's the number one,

164
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: I'm generally not gravitated.

165
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 2: Towards it, Like I found iOS Android. Do you gravitate

166
00:07:58,800 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 2: towards Android?

167
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: I actually do, But that's funny. That's not for Anny,

168
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: That's that's more for different reasons. But I'm talking just

169
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: in general when it comes to big brands, because I

170
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: always feel like, I don't know if you remember this,

171
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: but there used to be ads for like Avus. I

172
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: think it was like we do someone one of them

173
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: tried harder, like Hurts. I think was like the main company,

174
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 1: and then like aviis like tried harder, and like it

175
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: just seems to me that the second always tries harder.

176
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: So anyway, Cam Scanner the way big tangent.

177
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 2: This is like a very broad general but like I'm curious.

178
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 1: But you see what I'm saying, Like, I always like

179
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 1: kind of the second, like the underdog, I guess you

180
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,079
Speaker 1: can say, because I feel like they try harder. Yeah,

181
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: And it's always why on Yelp, I never call the

182
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,719
Speaker 1: first person that is in the list of results. I

183
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: always call the second because the first is getting so

184
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: many phone calls. They're the top dog, they have too

185
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: much business. I always go with the second guy. It's

186
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,319
Speaker 1: getting a little less phone calls, right.

187
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 2: I mean, I see that you're trying to say.

188
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 1: So cam Scanner I never really used cause I think

189
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: it was one of the more popular scanning apps on androids.

190
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 1: So that's I just disliked it immediately. But they here's

191
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 1: what happened. So cam Scanner apparently Kasperski who they investigated

192
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 1: cam Scanner, which is a phone pdf yeah, scans things

193
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: like into PDFs. But they found a malicious software on

194
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: I get it's kind of tough to explain, but bottom line,

195
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 1: somehow this program was allowing malicious software to be installed

196
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: on your phone once you install this app. And the

197
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 1: scary part about it is that this app was available

198
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 1: through Google Play, which is weird because you would think

199
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 1: that they would scan that app for anything malicious, which

200
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: is odd. So long story short, I would say personally

201
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: that you probably want to uninstall cam Scanner, ditch it.

202
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: Even though cam Scanner officially said that they detected an

203
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: advertisement at SDK provided by a third party named ad Hub,

204
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 1: integrated in Android version five point eleven point seven has

205
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,079
Speaker 1: been reported for containing a malicious module that produces unauthorized

206
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 1: advertising clicks. So basically, this little module inside their program

207
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 1: was using your phone to create cash for this advertising

208
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 1: company ad Hub. Not good, not very not a very

209
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: nice use of your phone. This is why I always

210
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: also favor paid versions of apps from independent developers versus

211
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: you know, I call them garbage apps, the apps that

212
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 1: are just like these big apps that just have a

213
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: lot of users, but all their their whole goal is

214
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: like just infiltrate your phone with.

215
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,719
Speaker 2: Advertising like Instagram.

216
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 1: No, not Instagram there, that's a nice app, but just

217
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: just ran I don't know, I just I just I'm

218
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: really not hot on this camp scanner app. Yeah, because

219
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 1: I just don't. Let me just see how many downloads.

220
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,320
Speaker 2: This definitely delete, so I.

221
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 1: Would delete it they they do have a way that

222
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 1: you can get rid of uh, you know, upload or

223
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: download an update that doesn't have all this malware. But

224
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: I would just get rid of it. So I personally

225
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 1: would you either in Google Drive. You can just go

226
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: to Google Drive and there's a big blue button that

227
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: says scan in the lower right hand corner. You press

228
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: the big blue plus sign and then just says scan.

229
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,959
Speaker 1: You can just use Google Drive to scan your stuff

230
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 1: into PDFs. That's number one. That's my main recommendation. Then

231
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: I would recommend Adobe Scan, which is you know, it's

232
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: a little bloated, but it will work. And then on

233
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: the iPhone, I actually like, let me say, I've got

234
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 1: two apps. I like Scannable, which is my favorite that

235
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,559
Speaker 1: does not have an Android counterpart, and the other one

236
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 1: is doc Scanner from Zoho that's my new favorite, and

237
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: they also do not have an Android equivalent. So get

238
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,839
Speaker 1: rid of cam scanner. That's bad bad actor, bad bad

239
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: bad acting. I don't even know what that means. Speaking

240
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 1: of apologies, Apple is apologizing. See what happens to the

241
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 1: best of them. Apple is apologizing because they you found

242
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,440
Speaker 1: out that they were listening to their your serie commands

243
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 1: so they had a bunch of people at Apple listening

244
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 1: to Siri commands, which makes sense. How do you make

245
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 1: things better if you don't listen to what people are

246
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: saying and listen to the computer's response. I'm not surprised

247
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 1: that any voice commands are being listened to. I mean

248
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,959
Speaker 1: they have to be listened to. Apple says that they

249
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 1: listen to less than two percent, or I guess less

250
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 1: than point zero two percent, So that's not that many.

251
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 1: But when you do it times how many Siri commands are,

252
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 1: it's a lot.

253
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

254
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,719
Speaker 1: They call it Siri grating, which makes sense. So if

255
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: you say, hey, Siri, what's the weather and it says

256
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 1: the NFL game is starting at three pm today, they

257
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: would want to know that that was not the right

258
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: response to your question. That makes sense, And the only

259
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 1: way they know that is if someone if a human

260
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: listens and goes, wait, she didn't ask about the NFL game,

261
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: but it sounded like Seattle Seahawks, so it misinterpreted. You see,

262
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,319
Speaker 1: I'm saying what's the weather in Seattle and it says

263
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: the Seahawks play tonight at three pm? You know that

264
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,559
Speaker 1: kind of thing. So three changes they're making. Number one

265
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: they're no longer going to retain audio recordings of what

266
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: you say to Siri. Number two, you have to opt in.

267
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 1: So if you want your recordings to be used by

268
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,439
Speaker 1: these people to make Siri better, you will opt in.

269
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: A lot of people will opt in because if you

270
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: look at the flow of Siri of the way you

271
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: set up an iPhone right now, it says data and analytics,

272
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: and it's like the default is, yes, I want to

273
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: opt in. I always opt out, by the way, Oh

274
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 1: you do, I always always opt out.

275
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 2: Oh I thought you were going to say, you do opt.

276
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: In, always opt out? Because why I bought your phone

277
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 1: for one thousand dollars. Why am I the guinea pig

278
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: that's giving you all my data to make your.

279
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 2: Phone better and make someone else the guinea pig.

280
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 1: Now I'm fine with you doing it or whoever else,

281
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, but personally, like, I like to be

282
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 1: more private, So why am I giving you? Like if

283
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 1: you want to pay me for those analytics like Google

284
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: on there, I do this Google Play like rewards or whatever,

285
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: and they ask me questions and they pay me like

286
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,359
Speaker 1: hard cash that I can use for Google Play goods.

287
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 2: Anyway, So if I wanted to opt out.

288
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 1: Right, now you can opt out. This is this is

289
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 1: they still have to they have to enable this. Yeah,

290
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 1: and then when customers opt in, only Apple employees will

291
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:04,839
Speaker 1: be allowed to listen to audio samples. So they're not

292
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: going to use like third party randos to do that.

293
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: That's good.

294
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 2: Okay.

295
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 3: So this next question comes from actually someone who emailed

296
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 3: you on your website, which is rich on tech dot tv.

297
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 3: You just click the contact button and you fill out

298
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 3: your question. So this comes from Mike and he asks,

299
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 3: I'll be traveling next month and with lost luggage on

300
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 3: the rise, would you happen to know any low cost

301
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 3: GPS luggage trackers?

302
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 2: I love this question.

303
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 1: This is a good question. I'm curious where is he

304
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: getting his data that lost luggage is on the rise.

305
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 2: I don't know. But I hear about people losing their luggage.

306
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: Do you really never hear that?

307
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 2: Oh?

308
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: Come on, I never hear of people losing Okay, tell

309
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 1: me a story.

310
00:14:53,880 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, yesterday day, not me. I was watching someone story.

311
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: Okay, random story. Do you know this person?

312
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 3: No?

313
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 2: I don't know them?

314
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: Okay, never mind, no, no, hold on, you don't know

315
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: this person. You can't. This is This is like when

316
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: people tell me they'll be like, oh, everyone's going to Fiji.

317
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: I'm like who, They're like, well, I see them my stories.

318
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 1: Do you know those people?

319
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 3: No, Still, it happens. I have a friend that lost

320
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 3: her Anyways.

321
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 2: It's fine. I feel like you don't think it happens.

322
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: I've traveled. I've traveled around the world. I've traveled around

323
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 1: the world. So of you, yes, and for this job

324
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 1: and I knock on wood, have yet to ever have

325
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: a piece of luggage missing?

326
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 2: Wake Really, I've had two.

327
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: In ten I've actually, hold on, I've been I've been

328
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: flying for twenty something years. I can remember one time

329
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 1: that I have my luggage lost. And this was back

330
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: in the nineties. Wow. So I feel like luggage has

331
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 1: gotten a lot better. Okay, like the whole luggage process

332
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: with airlines. But that's besides the post.

333
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 2: I've had. It happened twice.

334
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 1: If it makes you feel better, then get a lot.

335
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 2: I don't think I would buy a tracker. I'm just

336
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 2: saying now.

337
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: With that said, I used to keep a tile in

338
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: my suitcase in case it did get lost.

339
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 2: Get out of here.

340
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: But you know if it did. Okay, So here's the

341
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 1: challenge of tracking your luggage. Number one, you have to

342
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 1: have a GPS tracker because something like a tile may

343
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: or may not work. You want exact tracking. So there

344
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 1: used to be a product called track Dot and that

345
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 1: was the big one, and it was pretty inexpensive. It

346
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: was like fifty bucks and it would track your luggage

347
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: for I think it was like three years. I used

348
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: to have one of these. They sent me a test model.

349
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: It worked for like two years. I don't remember if

350
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: I ever actually put it in my luggage. That was

351
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: number that's gone out of business. Okay, So the three

352
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: that I found that are still around. There is one

353
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: from Sprint called Tracker plus Tracker Safe and Sound, and

354
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: this is two dollars and fifty cents a month for

355
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 1: twenty four months. Can you do the math on that? Okay?

356
00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: Two dollars and fifty cents a month for twenty four

357
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 1: months plus five dollars a month for service, and that

358
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 1: seems like a lot of money.

359
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,120
Speaker 2: If he's five dollars a month for.

360
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 1: Service plus plus twenty four dollars a month, I mean

361
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 1: two dollars and fifty cents a month for twenty four months. Okay, Okay,

362
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: that's number one. Then you've got the Geobit location monitor,

363
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:17,879
Speaker 1: which we did a story on and this is a

364
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: good little tracker that can be used for anything, including

365
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: kids and elderly. This is one hundred and thirty dollars

366
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: plus nine dollars a month for two years, or you

367
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:27,880
Speaker 1: can get it month a month for thirteen dollars a month.

368
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 1: Then you've got the Luglock tracker, which is seventy dollars

369
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,400
Speaker 1: and it's sold out so you can't even get that one.

370
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,879
Speaker 1: Then they have a new one called gig which is

371
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 1: one hundred dollars month. Yeah.

372
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 2: By the way, this is this.

373
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 1: Is my point. Just to trust that your airline is

374
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 1: gonna have your luggage when you get there, and if

375
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 1: they don't, I mean number one, I always do. I

376
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 1: try to do carry on as much as possible. That's different,

377
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: I know, But my point is I'm just saying this

378
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: person is saying Mike is saying that he's traveling next month. Yeah,

379
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,120
Speaker 1: which means he's telling me he's not a frequent traveler.

380
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 1: So in the span of that one time he travels,

381
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 1: I say, take your chances and save the three hundred

382
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: dollars or whatever. We just decided this cost to have this.

383
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: And here's the other thing. If you you know, if

384
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: you bought your you know these companies the time that

385
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: they did lose the luggage, they will buy you new

386
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 1: clothes and they will also bring your luggage to your

387
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 1: place for you.

388
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, but what if Mike's diamond necklace was it?

389
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 1: Don't put your diamond necklace in luggage. Don't everything I

390
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:28,680
Speaker 1: have in my supers.

391
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 3: I think what we're trying to say is you should

392
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 3: probably carry on if you're really, really, really worried, save

393
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 3: save the one hundred and eighty dollars on the tracker

394
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 3: and just carry.

395
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 1: Am I getting angrier as the podcast? No.

396
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 3: I feel like I feel like every time I have

397
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 3: one idea, you're just like, Nope, how right.

398
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,880
Speaker 2: I gotta I gotta label these Why you're getting frustrated.

399
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 1: This is when Megan has an idea.

400
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, well that was just not nice.

401
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 1: It launched their new smart watch. It's called the Versa two.

402
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: When the Versa came out, the original one, I was

403
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 1: a big believer in that watch. I really liked it.

404
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 1: I liked it as a alternative to the Apple Watch,

405
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,239
Speaker 1: and I still do. I still think the Versa is

406
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 1: the best alternative to the Apple Watch. The reason why

407
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 1: is because it's simple. It works with every phone, including

408
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: iOS and Android devices, and it's just a it's it's

409
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: just a kind of the basic nice tracker, and I

410
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: thought it had a lot of features. The things I

411
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 1: didn't like about it was the music and the slowness.

412
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: Now they fix those, so they say the Versa two

413
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 1: is faster. Now Spotify is built in. Before you only

414
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 1: had Pandora, which is really cool. They built in Alexa,

415
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: but I don't care about that at all. I don't

416
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 1: want Alexa on my smart watch again the anger I don't.

417
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, so now you're talking. If you have

418
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 1: a Google phone and a Fippit Versa, now you're talking,

419
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: you have to use Alexa on your wrist and Google

420
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 1: on your phone. It's just or if you have an

421
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: iPhone and you're using this, now you have to use

422
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 1: Siri on your phone and Alex on your wrist. Nightmare

423
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: things to talk to. Thank you a lot of keeping trying.

424
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 2: I already talk to myself enough, so you do.

425
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 1: This is about the only time someone listens to you

426
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 1: when you talk.

427
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 2: Oh do you guys hear this?

428
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 1: Let's see five day battery life on the fipbit versa two,

429
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 1: which is really nice. The other thing I really like,

430
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: and this was my other problems about the Fippit versus

431
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,399
Speaker 1: the Apple Watch. When you lift your wrist with the

432
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 1: Apple Watch, it lights up immediately to show you what's

433
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 1: on the screen. The versa there's a tiny delay, which

434
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 1: is really frustrating when you're using this thing and you

435
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,919
Speaker 1: want to just glance at the time. So now they

436
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: do have an all day on mode which will only

437
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: give you two days a battery life. But to me,

438
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: I'd much rather have that. Yeah, because when you lift

439
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: up your wrist, the clearly Fippit can't figure out how

440
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,159
Speaker 1: to get the beauty of the Apple Watch, where it

441
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 1: just comes immediately to life. Yeah, as soon as you

442
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,639
Speaker 1: lift your wrist. For some reason, phippeit can't get that.

443
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 1: That's why they're doing the always on.

444
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 2: So it also looks a lot like the Apple Watch.

445
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: It does look a lot like the Apple Watch, so

446
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 1: you might fool your friends.

447
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 2: Be like, yes, maybe I'll just get the Fippit versus.

448
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 3: Well, I feel like that we talk to Alexa all

449
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,400
Speaker 3: the time, especially when you're near other things.

450
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 1: I like about this. It has a sleep score, which

451
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 1: is something the Apple Watch does not do. Maybe the

452
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: Apple Watch with the next generation will do sleep, but

453
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 1: that's a that's a glaring omission.

454
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 2: That's weird that they that it does.

455
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 1: We need sleep. On the Apple Watch, they do oxygen tracking,

456
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 1: which is really cool because a lot of people, if

457
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 1: you have like sleep apnea, this will be handy to

458
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 1: kind of see like how often it happens. You can

459
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,400
Speaker 1: show your doctor be like, look, my oxygen is going

460
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:40,399
Speaker 1: like this while I'm sleeping, like up and down and

461
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: up and down, and your doctor can maybe do some

462
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: more tests and you know that kind of thing.

463
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 3: Or if you have like sleep paralysis, which you don't

464
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,120
Speaker 3: know what it is, Is this what you have?

465
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 1: When are we going to get into Megan's sleep issues? Here,

466
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 1: no sleep paralysis, so tell me again. You basically wake

467
00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:58,880
Speaker 1: up and you feel like you can't move.

468
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, which, by the way, Rich didn't know what this

469
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 3: was and I had. I said, oh, I have sleep proalysis.

470
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,120
Speaker 3: He was like, I've never heard of that. So basically, yeah,

471
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 3: it's like say you're taking a nap.

472
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:11,439
Speaker 1: Right and like that'd be a dream.

473
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 3: Okay, that sounds like you're saying you're just taking a nap,

474
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 3: and then it's this feeling where your your brain is awake,

475
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 3: like you're trying to wake up, but your body's asleep.

476
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 1: That's so weird. So you feel like you carry but

477
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: you can't move.

478
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 2: But see, I feel you feel paralyzed.

479
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 1: I feel like you were talking about the thing where

480
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 1: if you're in a dream and you're trying to move,

481
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 1: it feels like you're moving through water or like, olass,

482
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 1: it's really slow. Oh okay, never had those dreams totally.

483
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:36,640
Speaker 1: You're trying to run from someone. It's like you literally feel.

484
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,640
Speaker 2: Like have you ever liked when you're falling asleep?

485
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: Oh? Yeah, you're like any fast you like?

486
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 2: Actually, yeah, that's my favorite. I love when that happens.

487
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: That happens on the plane all the time, where.

488
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 2: You're just like, oh my gosh, I hate sleeping on planes.

489
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: Love it. Two hundred dollars for the fippit. It's available

490
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 1: on a Fippit versus two. It's available on September fifteenth,

491
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. The thing I don't like about fippit, they

492
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,399
Speaker 1: like everyone else has real that subscriptions seem to be

493
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: a nice source of income now Fippit is offering a

494
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,479
Speaker 1: ten dollars a month service, which I don't even I'm

495
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: not even gonna go into what it includes because just

496
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,440
Speaker 1: by principle, I don't want it. I don't want another subscription.

497
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 2: So many subscriptions?

498
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 1: How many?

499
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 2: All right?

500
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 3: So this next question comes from Bruce. He emailed you

501
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,199
Speaker 3: and he wrote Rich, I've called Apple about this and

502
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 3: ended up at Goldman Sachs. They weren't completely sure about

503
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 3: their answer. The question is if I set up a

504
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 3: monthly subscription, say for Netflix, and give them my card

505
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,919
Speaker 3: number to draw it from each month, then later I

506
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 3: generate a new card for a purchase online, does that

507
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 3: negate the number Netflix is using? In other words, each

508
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 3: time I generate a new number, are the old ones trashed?

509
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 2: Is he talking about credit card?

510
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 1: Yes, he's talking about Apple card. Oh okay, got it interesting?

511
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 1: So he said he couldn't find the answer to this,

512
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 1: and yeah, So the Apple Card is is Apple's new

513
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 1: credit card which is linked to the iPhone and it

514
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,119
Speaker 1: works in several ways. Number One, you sign up for it,

515
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,440
Speaker 1: you get it immediately on your phone. Then you can

516
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 1: request to have a physical card sent to you. The

517
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 1: physical card has no numbers on it. So how do

518
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 1: you use a number? You create a virtual number inside

519
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 1: the app. And this can be handy for several reasons,

520
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,360
Speaker 1: the first being that it's for security. If you are

521
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:23,399
Speaker 1: doing like a free trial online or sketchy website, you

522
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 1: can use a virtual number and it won't affect your

523
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 1: credit card and that's kind of nice. And you can

524
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: cut off that virtual number at any time. So let's

525
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 1: say you do a Netflix trial and you're like, eh,

526
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 1: I don't want this anymore. Instead of like calling Netflix,

527
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 1: you could literally just like turn off that number. So,

528
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 1: and this is not the first credit card to do this.

529
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,880
Speaker 1: A lot of the other banks offer these virtual numbers.

530
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 1: I think it sounds very complicated to like do this,

531
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 1: like to set up different numbers all the time. Yeah,

532
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 1: but I can see where it can come in handy,

533
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 1: especially with free trials, because you just don't want to

534
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: deal with getting charged for a free trial that you

535
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 1: don't want. What he's asking is if he generates one number,

536
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 1: does it push out the old number and then all

537
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 1: of a sudden, all his subscriptions on that number go

538
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 1: like haywire. Yeah, that's not how it works. You can

539
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,160
Speaker 1: pretty much generate new numbers and keep the old numbers.

540
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 1: You'll see a whole list of your numbers and then

541
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: you can delete them as you want. That's how it

542
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 1: normally works, and that's that's the way it would work

543
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,160
Speaker 1: to make the most sense, because if you do want

544
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:20,919
Speaker 1: to set these things up, like you can type in

545
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:22,639
Speaker 1: on your you know, I haven't used this can I

546
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 1: don't have the Apple card. But if you theoretically would

547
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 1: type in like Netflix card, and it would just generate

548
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 1: the number and you have it labeled as your Netflix card, Okay.

549
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 1: And then next thing, you know, you want to sign

550
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 1: up for a subscription for your kids for something like

551
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 1: one of those box you know they come every month,

552
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,440
Speaker 1: like a science experiment box or something. But you think

553
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,879
Speaker 1: that you're going to like totally ghost the company, and

554
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: you're just like, I don't want to really get this,

555
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 1: but I'll just try it. So you put in that

556
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,719
Speaker 1: number and then after a month, you just delete that number, okay,

557
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,159
Speaker 1: after you get your box. So that's the way I

558
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,239
Speaker 1: understand it. I think that that's cool, and I'm not

559
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,879
Speaker 1: you know, you know me, I love credit cards, but

560
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: I hate credit cards. I you know, I love the

561
00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 1: credit cards for the convenience, but I like spending money

562
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: that I feel and so totally I get the Apple

563
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: card I feel like is actually kind of in the

564
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 1: middle there. And I I find that the tap to

565
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,119
Speaker 1: pay is really interesting because we've talked about this before.

566
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 1: If I am handing you cash, it's gonna take a

567
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:15,879
Speaker 1: little bit longer for you to pull it out of

568
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 1: my hand. Right if I'm handing you my debit card,

569
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 1: it's going to take a little bit less time, but

570
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: similar to that, you still feel it. If I hand

571
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,119
Speaker 1: you my credit card, I'm just like doing a dance

572
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 1: move and I'm like swiping it or putting that chip

573
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: in whatever. It's no big deal, even for when it's

574
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 1: one hundred three hundred, four hundred dollars transaction, even the

575
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 1: biggest transaction, I still don't feel it. Tap to pay

576
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: I feel like might even be less friction than the

577
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 1: credit card because it's so easy to just tap your phone. Yeah,

578
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:46,400
Speaker 1: do you have this setup tap to pay?

579
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 2: Yeah?

580
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 1: I have?

581
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 2: You mean, well, there are credit cards that have the tap.

582
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 1: There are some credit cards. Now I know that's even

583
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:54,720
Speaker 1: more I don't have tap to pay. So you have

584
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,919
Speaker 1: a card that has the tap to pay? Yes, So

585
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 1: that's kind.

586
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 3: Of and it's funny because they don't even like I

587
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 3: was paying for something. Once I was like, where do

588
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 3: I tap this card? And they were like, oh, I

589
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,399
Speaker 3: don't know, yeah, and I was like, oh, well, it says.

590
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 2: Like anyways, so I just it's the same as a

591
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:08,199
Speaker 2: credit card to me.

592
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, feel the same.

593
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 2: Feeling of like I won't see this for a month, right,

594
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,679
Speaker 2: And that's so the Apple card.

595
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 1: The Apple card, you would see it because now with

596
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,879
Speaker 1: the app, it's it's all in the app, itemized, like

597
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 1: immediately your transaction. So anyway, I will not be getting

598
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 1: the Apple card. But I'm not saying like that. It's

599
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,960
Speaker 1: it's terrible, like if you're on top of your finances

600
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:31,640
Speaker 1: and all that stuff like it can be. It can

601
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 1: be a good tool, let's put it that way. But

602
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 1: the virtual cards, yes, you should be able to delete

603
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 1: those at will and have several of them at the

604
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 1: same time to manage everything that you've got. All right,

605
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 1: let's see, do you want to talk about Yelp. I

606
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: want to talk about Yelp. This is the first time

607
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:51,040
Speaker 1: that Yelp kind of revamped their app to be personalized. Now.

608
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: In the past, I always had my way of searching Yelp.

609
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 1: Did I ever tell you how I do it? No,

610
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: So when I search Yelp, I would do something like,

611
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,119
Speaker 1: let's say I was in San Francisco for the day

612
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 1: and I wanted to eat at a restaurant. I would

613
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: go into Yelp and I would search restaurants, and then

614
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,679
Speaker 1: I would go into the the sort filters and I

615
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 1: would do by most reviewed, which is near me, So

616
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,680
Speaker 1: that would tell me not the most popular restaurant, per se,

617
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 1: but kind of it's like the restaurant that has the

618
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:21,120
Speaker 1: most like people are going and they're reviewing. This restaurant's trendy.

619
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 1: It's kind of yeah, like people know about it. So

620
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: I'd just be like, well, that's basically the restaurant that

621
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: I need to go to. Go ahead, try see what's

622
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: in this area. You can, I'll talk about what Yelp's

623
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: doing is. So that was always my way of finding

624
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: like the little hotspots without a lot of work, you know,

625
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 1: because if you're only in a city for a day,

626
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 1: you don't want to really spend a lot of time

627
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 1: researching restaurants. So I'd just be like, let me just

628
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 1: go to the place everyone's reviewing. So I would do

629
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 1: that most reviewed?

630
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 2: Okay, I see it. Do you find a place why

631
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 2: it's loading?

632
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 1: Okay?

633
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 2: So most reviewed? That's sponsored okay, carda.

634
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: Mom, Nope, keep going. They changed it so now you

635
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: have to look for all results there. It is Pink

636
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 1: hot Dogs seven thousand. So that's not a place that

637
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 1: I would normally go, but it's kind of funny. Have

638
00:28:58,640 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 1: you ever been there?

639
00:28:59,680 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 2: Yes?

640
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 1: Okay, if you I had it once they came here

641
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 1: to the station. I'm not a big hot dog person,

642
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 1: so I don't really like seek them out, but I

643
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 1: will eat one. But it's just funny because if I

644
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: was in La, like that is one of the places

645
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: that you should probably hit up. Everyone knows pinks and

646
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: so it kind of worked. The second one, i'd never

647
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 1: heard of Republic. Oh I've heard of it, but it

648
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 1: sounds fancy, so I would. I also buy the way,

649
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 1: so it's that's nothing.

650
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,120
Speaker 2: That's absolutely easy.

651
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 1: I would totally a five dollars if it's if it

652
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 1: gets up to the five, I would. I would have

653
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 1: a little pause anything, swipe that credit card one dollar,

654
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 1: sign to four. No big deal. I'm kidding. It's actually funny. No,

655
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 1: what's funny is when I travel on business, I am

656
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 1: definitely like a cheaper eater, so I will I don't

657
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 1: want to name names with some of my other colleagues here,

658
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 1: but I will generally try to find places that are

659
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 1: like two to three versus like a force four dollars sign.

660
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 2: But you told me that I can only eat at

661
00:29:58,680 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 2: one one dollar.

662
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 1: Hey, Megan, don't give everyone your secrets here. I'm just kidding, Okay,

663
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 1: So for the first time, you can now tell Yelp

664
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 1: what your preferences are. And those preferences now are your diet,

665
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 1: so you can specify if you're gluten free, halal quito, kosher, pescatarian, vegan,

666
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,760
Speaker 1: or vegetarian, or as Megan likes to call it, all

667
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 1: the above.

668
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 2: Good one.

669
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 1: You can do your lifestyle, which is car owners, homeowners, parents,

670
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: and pet owners. You can do wheelchair accessibility. You can

671
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:32,479
Speaker 1: also choose your favorite food and drink categories, including happy hour, bronze,

672
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 1: Chinese pizza. And then you can choose your interests like bookstores,

673
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 1: late night, late nights, date nights, hair salons, hiking, home decor,

674
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 1: kid activities, and more. And immediately what came to mind

675
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 1: when I saw this new feature which yelp gave me

676
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 1: early access to for a week. I'll just humble brag there.

677
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 2: But don't toot your own horn.

678
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 1: I'm just saying i'd access this access to this feature

679
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: quicker than more people. But the first thing I thought

680
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 1: of is, oh my gosh, I'm handing over all my

681
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 1: datity yelps so they can now sell this to advertisers.

682
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 1: But Yelp says that they do keep this information private

683
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 1: and it's only shared with the app, So I don't

684
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: know how true that is, but that's what they're saying.

685
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: So bottom line, love Yelp. By the way, Yelp is great.

686
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, not sponsored by Yelp, but like love Yelp.

687
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 1: But once you choose these things about your life, it

688
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 1: makes sense. If you are vegan, it would make sense

689
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 1: for Yelp to put the vegan restaurant, or not even

690
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: a vegan restaurant, let's just say a restaurant is known

691
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 1: for like some great vegan options. It would put those

692
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 1: towards the top of the list. The only thing that

693
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 1: they're doing here that's kind of weird to me is

694
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 1: it throws me off. They put little hearts next to

695
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 1: things that are sort of tailored for you. Yeah, to me,

696
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,800
Speaker 1: when I see a heart, that means something is heart healthy,

697
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 1: like a healthy restaurant. Really it just to me, it

698
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 1: just seems like it's heart healthy, but it means no.

699
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 1: This is personalized. So the other thing they do that's

700
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 1: really cool is they tell you why something is sort

701
00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: of elevated for you. It'll say, yelpers report that this

702
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 1: location has a lot of vegan options, or Yelpers like

703
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 1: this place for its kid friendly pancakes. Right, It'll kind

704
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 1: of give that information so you understand why it shows

705
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: those I think that this is very much evolving. I

706
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 1: don't think it's perfect. I don't think that Yelp has

707
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: a level of AI that Google has just yet. But

708
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 1: it's a start, and it's a good way to kind

709
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,719
Speaker 1: of personalize the Yelp experience. I worry a little bit

710
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: about things being too personalized where it's like, rich, you

711
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 1: love pizza, just keep going to pizza places. I don't

712
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 1: want that to happen.

713
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, But at the same time, it's like, you do

714
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 2: eat a lot of.

715
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 1: Pizza, Hey, but you would what now you're saying, just

716
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:37,680
Speaker 1: because I'm Italian, I eat a lot of pizza. Huh,

717
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 1: all right, I do.

718
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 2: Love pizza though, right, so.

719
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 1: I will have Italian food any day of the week.

720
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 2: There you go. You probably want to try different places too,

721
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 2: and yeah, I want to help.

722
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: I did try Boba tea though, I loved it, so

723
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: now maybe I'll heart Boba all right.

724
00:32:54,600 --> 00:33:00,160
Speaker 3: This next question comes from Facebook. Monica writes, what's your

725
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 3: opinion on VPNs?

726
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 1: Oh?

727
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 2: Another VPN question? We got one? I think last week?

728
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 3: She keeps reading about added security for online banking fraud?

729
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 3: Are they that secure? This from from Monica?

730
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 1: No, I mean, who's Monica reading this from? Okay?

731
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 2: So yeah, I know everyone's citing things and we don't

732
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 2: really know.

733
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 1: Well, here's what happened. I will tell you where they're

734
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 1: hearing it, Megan. They're hearing it from ads. When they

735
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,120
Speaker 1: browse online, A lot of the stuff they see is

736
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 1: sort of clutter and it's ads. It's advertising. I'm at

737
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 1: the gym and I'm watching on the TV, like what

738
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 1: I sometimes don't connect or I do connect what I

739
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 1: see on TV to questions that I get because people

740
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 1: are heavily being advertised and I've seen My.

741
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 3: Sister asked me this question this weekend, and I was like,

742
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 3: how do you not like I didn't know what a

743
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 3: VPN was until I started working with you, because.

744
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 1: We because I always use one to secure all my travels. Yeah,

745
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: but anyways, I will tell you my thoughts on VPNs.

746
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 1: The main number one is a vp Okay, VPN is

747
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 1: virtual private network. And if you have a job at

748
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 1: a corporation, a lot of times you will use a

749
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 1: corporate VPN to access your network at work. And what

750
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 1: that does is think of a VPN as a tunnel.

751
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 1: It's a direct line from your computer tunnel under all

752
00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 1: the crap that's on the internet, right to your company

753
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 1: so that you can access company servers. You can access

754
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:25,440
Speaker 1: company files, company data without Imagine you're in a tunnel

755
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,920
Speaker 1: that has just you know, it's totally secured. No one

756
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 1: can get into that tunnel because it's kind of like

757
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 1: there's a big like, you know, there's just no way in.

758
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,680
Speaker 1: So you can take that tunnel to your company's network.

759
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: That's what a VPN is in its simplest definition. What

760
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 1: people use VPNs for normally is to get around geo

761
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:47,799
Speaker 1: location restrictions that a lot of websites put on so

762
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,880
Speaker 1: that you can't access stuff from certain places. So for instance,

763
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 1: let's say Netflix had a show in Germany that's not

764
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 1: offered in the US. A lot of people would use

765
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,959
Speaker 1: a VPN to say they're in Germany and then they can,

766
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: you know, watch that show that's yeah in Germany.

767
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:04,400
Speaker 2: That was the question my sister asked me.

768
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 3: She said, do you recommend any VPNs so that I

769
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,120
Speaker 3: can so that you can watch Netflix from other countries. Yes,

770
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 3: she's not leaving the country anytime soon. I don't know where,

771
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 3: but she's planning ahead.

772
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 1: She's planning ahead. Another one the another way people do

773
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,839
Speaker 1: it is with sporting events. A lot of a lot

774
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 1: of the games are blacked out. So let's say, and

775
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 1: I never understood this, I'm not a big sports guy,

776
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 1: but let's say you live in Los Angeles and you

777
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 1: have a subscription to NFL Sunday Ticket. Who's our team

778
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 1: here in LA? Like, who's the football team? The Rams? No,

779
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 1: not the Trojan Sorry the Rams. You can't watch Rams

780
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: games on Sunday Ticket because they want you to watch

781
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:48,839
Speaker 1: it on broadcast TV. Makes no sense, Okay, same thing

782
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,479
Speaker 1: for baseball. You're in Atlanta, you can't watch I believe

783
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 1: it's the Braves. You can't watch the Braves when you

784
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 1: have a subscription at MLB TV because they want you

785
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 1: to tune into. However, the Braves are broadcast on TV.

786
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 1: Now I'm not sure if that's still the way it is,

787
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:06,400
Speaker 1: but that's crazy. Generally, how VPNs came into the public

788
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 1: spotlight is because people wanted to get around these rules,

789
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,320
Speaker 1: and so that's the main thing. There's other reasons to

790
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,799
Speaker 1: have VPNs when it comes to securing your data. Here's

791
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 1: when I recommend using a VPN. Number one, if you're

792
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:21,439
Speaker 1: at a hotel like a Hilton or whatever main hotel chain,

793
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,280
Speaker 1: nine times out of ten, you don't need a VPN

794
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 1: unless you're accessing really secure stuff. Generally, I try not

795
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:31,240
Speaker 1: to access my bank account on anything that's not LTE connection,

796
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 1: So I would, yep, if you're on public Wi Fi,

797
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 1: I would not access bank accounts. Now, is it secure, Yes,

798
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: it is, but because your bank is encrypted, but there

799
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:42,880
Speaker 1: is a little bit better of a chance that someone

800
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 1: might be able to do something when you're on a

801
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 1: public network versus LTE, which is much more secure cellular,

802
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 1: if you're on a random if you love getting on

803
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 1: random Wi Fi networks, like that's like.

804
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,120
Speaker 2: One of my favorite things to do in life.

805
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 1: I actually just hop on random.

806
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 2: Megan loves to get on random.

807
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 1: But it's true. It's it's you know, it's one of

808
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 1: those things where if you because some people are are

809
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,880
Speaker 1: sort of Wi Fi like they love always getting on

810
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,280
Speaker 1: Wi Fi like they just they do the save battery.

811
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what it's for, but it's like they

812
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,360
Speaker 1: just don't use their data whatever it is. Like, Yeah, personally,

813
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,759
Speaker 1: I avoid Wi Fi at all costs, Like, if I

814
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,040
Speaker 1: can use my cellular, I'm gonna use that. But some

815
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 1: people just love to always like, you know what the

816
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:23,560
Speaker 1: Wi Fi is for this place, I'm like, I don't know,

817
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 1: Like I don't care. So that's the other reason is

818
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: if you're always using random Wi Fi networks, then I

819
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 1: would probably use a vv VPNs I recommend. I don't

820
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 1: really have one, but the one that a lot of

821
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 1: people like is I believe it's called Private Internet Access.

822
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: I think that's the one that a lot of people use.

823
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: I think that's the I think that's the one people use.

824
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 1: There's just so many are there's so many.

825
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 2: I don't know any so I can't recommend any.

826
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 1: Nor it is another one that people like we use here, yeah,

827
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,240
Speaker 1: but we use a corporate one. So it doesn't really care. Okay,

828
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 1: So yeah, okay. Now with that said, if you are

829
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,719
Speaker 1: traveling to a country like I would definitely use a

830
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:03,880
Speaker 1: VPN for all of your stuff and may have to.

831
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 1: Or if you're in Russia, or if you're in a

832
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 1: country like follow the trend here Russia, China, you get it.

833
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:13,280
Speaker 1: If you going to Italy, you don't need one, You're fine. Okay.

834
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:15,560
Speaker 2: I want to go to Italy, so do I.

835
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:17,399
Speaker 1: I'd love to get some pizza. All right, Two quick

836
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:18,840
Speaker 1: things I want to get through before the end of

837
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: the show. We tried out Sprint's new five G network,

838
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,160
Speaker 1: which is called True Mobile five G, and I will

839
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,080
Speaker 1: tell you it's cool that they lit this up in

840
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:30,520
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, New York, Phoenix, and Washington, and I tried

841
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:31,880
Speaker 1: it out. They gave me a phone to try it

842
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,359
Speaker 1: out on and it's the one plus or no, they

843
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 1: give me the one plus. No, they gave me a

844
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:39,400
Speaker 1: Samsung five G phone. It's cool if it works. So

845
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 1: my advice on five G. You're gonna be hearing a

846
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:43,920
Speaker 1: lot of hype about five G. I don't think you

847
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 1: need to worry about hopping on five G or I

848
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:48,759
Speaker 1: don't think you need to upgrade now if you have

849
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 1: no need for it, you know, like if you're just

850
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 1: thinking like, oh now, if you're a nerd like me

851
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 1: who loves like I will never forget. When Sprint got

852
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 1: what they called the Vision network back in the day,

853
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:58,920
Speaker 1: I was living in Treeport and they turn on this

854
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:00,799
Speaker 1: Sprint Vision it was called, and it was like a

855
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:03,719
Speaker 1: faster three G network that they launched. I had to

856
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,560
Speaker 1: get the phone the first day I ran to Sprint.

857
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 1: I got the phone and it was it was a

858
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 1: flip phone and it had a little tiny screen. But

859
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,720
Speaker 1: I was like, this is the fastest data you've ever experienced,

860
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 1: and I had to have it. And I'm still like that.

861
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,320
Speaker 1: I'm a nerd. So if I was a Sprint customer

862
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,080
Speaker 1: and I was upgrading my phone, I would definitely get

863
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 1: one of these five G phones because that's just who

864
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 1: I am. If your average person doesn't really care, like

865
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:27,840
Speaker 1: your four G is just fine. It works everything.

866
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 2: And if you're a gamer, if you're.

867
00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:31,360
Speaker 1: A gamer, that's a good thing. If you're gaming on

868
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 1: your phone, it could give you a little advantage on

869
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 1: Fortnite because there's less latency. But I will tell you

870
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,240
Speaker 1: the main thing I learned in reporting. The Sprint story

871
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:41,759
Speaker 1: is that Sprint is not using millimeter wave, which is

872
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 1: what Verizon and AT and Tier. Using millimeter wave does

873
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,320
Speaker 1: not travel as far, but it gives you much faster speeds.

874
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 1: So the reason SO and Sprint what they're doing is

875
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 1: they're kind of using a modified I don't I don't

876
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 1: really know, but basically they're modifying their LTE network to

877
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: accommodate five G speeds, so they're not as fast. They're

878
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 1: averaging about two hundred versus on Verizon AT and T

879
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:08,400
Speaker 1: you'll probably average closer to like a thousand. Wow, But

880
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,439
Speaker 1: do you need all that at the end of the day. Yeah,

881
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 1: I mean it'd be nice.

882
00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 2: I don't I don't know.

883
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 1: Sprint says their average five G download is two hundred

884
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: and three megabits per second, which is six times faster

885
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 1: than their LTE which is thirty five megabits per second.

886
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 1: But bottom line, it's cool. I love believe me. Seeing

887
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 1: those speed tests and that thing just go off the

888
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 1: chart was kind of cool. All right. One more thing

889
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,799
Speaker 1: to mention, Google Photos got a really cool feature. It

890
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 1: might still be rolling out, it's already live in my

891
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 1: Google Photos, but it's really really cool. And that is

892
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 1: you can now search for text inside pictures. So if

893
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:44,279
Speaker 1: you were in Italy and you remember some random sign

894
00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 1: that you saw, it would be an Italian. Yeah, that's true.

895
00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: Probably maybe well man, maybe it recognized different languages. I

896
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 1: don't know. But let's I'll give you a better example.

897
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 1: Let's say you travel a lot for work, and you

898
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,280
Speaker 1: take pictures of your receipts, and you want to remember

899
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 1: you need to submit a receipt for that Burger place

900
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,879
Speaker 1: that you went to. You can type in Burger and

901
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,280
Speaker 1: that receipt would show up. It's a really cool little feature.

902
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:10,720
Speaker 1: It's it's just makes Google Photos that much more useful.

903
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 1: And so try it out. Just try searching for some things.

904
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 1: I've started to use Google Photos now to take pictures

905
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 1: of my receipts for that reason, because now it's so easy.

906
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 1: I used to not do that because I used to

907
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 1: use them in Google Drive. But now it's like, just

908
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 1: go ahead. One more thing. The Microsoft Surface event will

909
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:29,759
Speaker 1: be happening October second in New York City, and we

910
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 1: are expected to expecting to see some new surface laptop,

911
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:38,919
Speaker 1: surface tablets, whatever whatever they got. And I'm predicting too

912
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,239
Speaker 1: that the pixel from Google the new one will be

913
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: around that same date, October first or third in New York.

914
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 1: Hopefully it's in New York, so I only have to

915
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 1: go to one place and hit up. That'd be ideal.

916
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,839
Speaker 1: That's like best case scenario. That'd be like.

917
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,680
Speaker 2: That that there you go, there you go.

918
00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:59,879
Speaker 1: All right. I think that's gonna do it for the show, Megan.

919
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:01,879
Speaker 2: Really, yeah, that's it.

920
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:04,520
Speaker 1: That's it. I talked. I talked way too much this show.

921
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 1: You didn't, Yeah, I did, because I went off about

922
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: cam Scanner. I just did.

923
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:10,840
Speaker 3: Know.

924
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:13,480
