• 1:41
  Toto
• 1:42
  Kohler,
• 1:43
  lg,
• 1:43
  all
• 1:44
  these.
• 1:44
  Each
• 1:44
  one
• 1:44
  of
• 1:44
  these
• 1:45
  is
• 1:45
  about
• 1:45
  the
• 1:45
  half
• 1:45
  the
• 1:45

  I'm

  well.
• 2:07
  Today
• 2:08
  I
• 2:08
  wanted
• 2:08
  to
• 2:08
  do
• 2:09
  a
• 2:09
  little
• 2:09
  bit
• 2:09
  of
• 2:09
  cleanup.
• 2:09
  And
• 2:10
  by
• 2:10
  the
• 2:10
  way,
• 2:10
  this
• 2:11
  hour
• 2:11
  is
• 2:11
  brought
• 2:11
  to
• 2:11
  you
• 2:12
  by
• 2:12
  our
• 2:12
  friends
• 2:12
  at
• 2:13
  Monument
• 2:13
  Grill
• 2:13
  if
• 2:14
  you're
• 2:14
  looking
• 2:14
  for
• 2:14
  that
• 2:15
  best,
• 2:15
  biggest
• 2:16
  brand
• 2:16
  new
• 2:17
  barbecue.
• 2:18
  And
• 2:18
  I
• 2:18
  tell
• 2:18
  you
• 2:18
  what,
• 2:19
  they
• 2:19
  got
• 2:19
  a
• 2:19
  new
• 2:19
  series
• 2:20
  coming
• 2:20
  out
• 2:20
  in
• 2:21
  March
• 2:21
  here.
• 2:21
  So
• 2:22
  I'm
• 2:22
  going
• 2:22
  to
• 2:22
  give
• 2:23
  you
• 2:23
  a
• 2:23
  sneak
• 2:23
  peek.
• 2:24
  That's
• 2:24
  all
• 2:24
  I
• 2:24
  can
• 2:25
  say.
• 2:25
  But
• 2:26
  this
• 2:26
  is
• 2:26
  going
• 2:27
  to
• 2:27
  blow
• 2:27
  your
• 2:27
  mind
• 2:27
  because
• 2:28
  I've
• 2:28
  already
• 2:28
  seen
• 2:28
  it,
• 2:29
  guys.
• 2:29
  Check
• 2:29
  them
• 2:30
  out@moneymc
• 2:31
  grills.com
• 2:32
  we'll
• 2:32
  be
• 2:32
  talking
• 2:32
  more
• 2:32
  about
• 2:33
  that
• 2:33
  brand
• 2:33
  new
• 2:33
  barbecue
• 2:34
  series
• 2:35
  in
• 2:35
  coming
• 2:35
  weeks.
• 2:36
  So
• 2:37
  I
• 2:37
  had
• 2:37
  some
• 2:37
  questions
• 2:37
  come
• 2:38
  in.
• 2:38
  We
• 2:38
  were
• 2:38
  talking
• 2:38
  about
• 2:39
  Internet
• 2:39
  and
• 2:40
  WI
• 2:40
  FI
• 2:41
  standards
• 2:41
  and
• 2:41
  so
• 2:42
  many
• 2:43
  things
• 2:43
  out
• 2:43
  there.
• 2:43
  When
• 2:44
  you
• 2:44
  go
• 2:44
  look
• 2:44
  at
• 2:44
  WI
• 2:44
  fi
• 2:45
  stuff,
• 2:45
  you'll
• 2:45
  see
• 2:45
  something
• 2:45
  that's
• 2:46
  maybe
• 2:46
  compatible
• 2:47
  with
• 2:48
  SmartThings,
• 2:49
  which
• 2:49
  is
• 2:49
  a
• 2:50
  Samsung
• 2:50
  product.
• 2:51
  That
• 2:51
  is
• 2:51
  their
• 2:52
  kind
• 2:52
  of
• 2:54
  product
• 2:54
  they
• 2:55
  use
• 2:55
  to
• 2:55
  manage
• 2:55
  things.
• 2:56
  And
• 2:56
  it's
• 2:56
  pretty
• 2:56
  good.
• 2:56
  I
• 2:57
  use
• 2:57
  that
• 2:57
  around
• 2:57
  my
• 2:57
  house.
• 2:58
  But
• 2:58
  the
• 2:58
  latest
• 2:58
  and
• 2:58
  greatest
• 2:59
  out
• 2:59
  there
• 3:00
  is
• 3:00
  matter.
• 3:01
  And
• 3:02
  what
• 3:02
  matter
• 3:03
  is
• 3:03
  you
• 3:04
  see
• 3:04
  this
• 3:04
  everywhere.
• 3:05
  Now
• 3:05
  that
• 3:05
  is
• 3:06
  the
• 3:06
  latest
• 3:06
  and
• 3:06
  greatest
• 3:07
  because
• 3:08
  the
• 3:08
  problem
• 3:08
  we've
• 3:09
  had
• 3:09
  and
• 3:09
  I'm
• 3:09
  going
• 3:09
  to
• 3:09
  dial
• 3:10
  it
• 3:10
  back
• 3:10
  here
• 3:10
  a
• 3:10
  little
• 3:11
  bit,
• 3:11
  the
• 3:11
  problem
• 3:11
  we've
• 3:11
  had
• 3:12
  with
• 3:12
  all
• 3:12
  the
• 3:13
  smart
• 3:13
  home
• 3:13
  tech
• 3:14
  is
• 3:14
  that
• 3:14
  everybody
• 3:15
  made
• 3:15
  their
• 3:15
  own
• 3:15
  thing
• 3:16
  and
• 3:16
  nothing
• 3:17
  was
• 3:17
  compatible
• 3:18
  with
• 3:18
  each
• 3:18
  other.
• 3:19
  There
• 3:19
  was
• 3:19
  no
• 3:19
  interoperability.
• 3:20
  So
• 3:21
  if
• 3:21
  you
• 3:21
  had
• 3:21
  a
• 3:21
  Samsung
• 3:22
  this
• 3:22
  and
• 3:23
  an
• 3:23
  LG
• 3:23
  that
• 3:24
  or
• 3:24
  a
• 3:24
  Carrier
• 3:25
  this
• 3:25
  or,
• 3:26
  or
• 3:26
  whatever,
• 3:27
  none
• 3:27
  of
• 3:27
  this
• 3:28
  stuff
• 3:28
  worked
• 3:28
  together.
• 3:29
  And
• 3:30
  so
• 3:30
  the
• 3:30
  last
• 3:31
  few
• 3:31
  years,
• 3:31
  probably
• 3:32
  the
• 3:32
  last
• 3:32
  three
• 3:32
  to
• 3:33
  five,
• 3:33
  interoperability
• 3:35
  has
• 3:35
  been
• 3:36
  a
• 3:36
  big
• 3:36
  word
• 3:37
  in
• 3:37
  letting
• 3:37
  these
• 3:38
  smart
• 3:38
  things
• 3:39
  work
• 3:39
  together,
• 3:40
  whether
• 3:41
  it's
• 3:41
  a
• 3:41
  switch
• 3:42
  or
• 3:42
  a
• 3:43
  smart
• 3:43
  TV
• 3:44
  or
• 3:45
  any
• 3:45
  one
• 3:45
  of
• 3:45
  those.
• 3:46
  And
• 3:46
  that's
• 3:47
  the
• 3:47
  problem.
• 3:47
  We
• 3:47
  have
• 3:48
  not
• 3:48
  had
• 3:48
  that
• 3:48
  seamless
• 3:49
  thing.
• 3:49
  So
• 3:49
  we
• 3:49
  had
• 3:49
  eight
• 3:50
  apps,
• 3:50
  10
• 3:50
  apps
• 3:50
  on
• 3:50
  our
• 3:51
  phones.
• 3:51
  If
• 3:51
  you
• 3:51
  were
• 3:51
  into
• 3:52
  smart
• 3:52
  stuff
• 3:53
  and
• 3:53
  it
• 3:53
  didn't
• 3:54
  work
• 3:54
  very
• 3:54
  well,
• 3:55
  really,
• 3:55
  the
• 3:55
  ideal
• 3:56
  smart
• 3:57
  home
• 3:57
  system
• 3:58
  really
• 3:59
  anticipates
• 4:00
  your
• 4:00
  needs
• 4:01
  and
• 4:01
  responds
• 4:02
  when
• 4:02
  you
• 4:02
  want
• 4:03
  it
• 4:03
  to
• 4:03
  work.
• 4:04
  Sometimes
• 4:04
  you
• 4:05
  yell
• 4:05
  at
• 4:05
  Alexa
• 4:06
  and
• 4:06
  things
• 4:06
  don't
• 4:06
  happen,
• 4:07
  or
• 4:07
  you
• 4:07
  want
• 4:08
  to
• 4:08
  do
• 4:08
  that
• 4:08
  and
• 4:08
  that
• 4:08
  stuff
• 4:09
  happens,
• 4:09
  but
• 4:09
  you
• 4:09
  want
• 4:09
  it
• 4:10
  to
• 4:10
  work
• 4:10
  as
• 4:10
  seamlessly
• 4:11
  as
• 4:11
  possible.
• 4:12
  So
• 4:13
  I
• 4:13
  hate
• 4:13
  having
• 4:14
  to
• 4:14
  open
• 4:14
  up,
• 4:14
  you
• 4:15
  know,
• 4:15
  swiping,
• 4:15
  looking
• 4:16
  through
• 4:16
  my
• 4:16
  iPhone,
• 4:17
  trying
• 4:17
  to
• 4:17
  find
• 4:17
  an
• 4:17
  app.
• 4:18
  Even
• 4:18
  though
• 4:18
  it's
• 4:19
  organized,
• 4:19
  it's
• 4:19
  not
• 4:19
  organized
• 4:20
  as
• 4:20
  should
• 4:20
  be,
• 4:21
  thanks
• 4:21
  to
• 4:21
  my
• 4:22
  adhd.
• 4:22
  But
• 4:22
  you
• 4:23
  know
• 4:23
  what
• 4:23
  I'm
• 4:23
  saying,
• 4:24
  this
• 4:24
  is
• 4:24
  what
• 4:24
  it
• 4:24
  is.
• 4:26
  So
• 4:26
  we've
• 4:26
  had
• 4:26
  all
• 4:26
  these
• 4:27
  different
• 4:27
  smart
• 4:27
  home
• 4:28
  standards
• 4:28
  out
• 4:29
  there.
• 4:30
  And
• 4:30
  so
• 4:30
  really
• 4:31
  we
• 4:32
  start
• 4:32
  great
• 4:32
  example.
• 4:33
  Alexa
• 4:33
  wouldn't
• 4:34
  talk
• 4:34
  to
• 4:34
  the
• 4:34
  Google
• 4:34
  Assistant
• 4:35
  or
• 4:36
  any
• 4:36
  of
• 4:36
  the
• 4:36
  Apple
• 4:37
  devices.
• 4:37
  So
• 4:37
  we
• 4:37
  had
• 4:37
  just
• 4:38
  a
• 4:38
  hot
• 4:38
  mess
• 4:38
  right
• 4:39
  there.
• 4:40
  And
• 4:40
  that
• 4:40
  was
• 4:40
  a
• 4:40
  problem.
• 4:41
  So
• 4:41
  Matter,
• 4:42
  which
• 4:42
  is
• 4:43
  basically
• 4:43
  its
• 4:44
  own
• 4:44
  design
• 4:45
  language,
• 4:46
  so
• 4:46
  it's
• 4:47
  an
• 4:47
  open
• 4:47
  source
• 4:48
  interoperability
• 4:49
  standard
• 4:50
  that
• 4:50
  came
• 4:51
  out
• 4:51
  about
• 4:51
  2022
• 4:53
  and
• 4:53
  it
• 4:53
  had
• 4:53
  a
• 4:53
  rough
• 4:54
  and
• 4:54
  slow
• 4:54
  start,
• 4:54
  like
• 4:55
  many
• 4:55
  things
• 4:55
  do.
• 4:57
  All
• 4:57
  of
• 4:57
  a
• 4:57
  sudden
• 4:58
  now
• 4:59
  Amazon,
• 5:00
  Apple,
• 5:00
  Google,
• 5:01
  all
• 5:01
  these
• 5:02
  other
• 5:02
  companies
• 5:03
  are
• 5:03
  jumping
• 5:03
  on
• 5:03
  board
• 5:04
  and
• 5:04
  they've
• 5:04
  been
• 5:04
  doing
• 5:04
  that
• 5:05
  over
• 5:05
  the
• 5:05
  last
• 5:06
  few
• 5:06
  years.
• 5:07
  So
• 5:08
  basically
• 5:08
  what
• 5:08
  Matter
• 5:09
  does
• 5:09
  is
• 5:09
  it
• 5:09
  enables
• 5:10
  all
• 5:10
  your
• 5:10
  different
• 5:11
  smart
• 5:11
  home
• 5:11
  devices
• 5:12
  and
• 5:12
  ecosystems
• 5:13
  to
• 5:13
  play
• 5:14
  nicely
• 5:14
  together
• 5:14
  in
• 5:14
  the
• 5:14
  same
• 5:15
  sandbox,
• 5:15
  which
• 5:15
  is
• 5:16
  super
• 5:16
  cool.
• 5:17
  So
• 5:18
  when
• 5:18
  you
• 5:18
  see
• 5:18
  it
• 5:19
  on
• 5:19
  the
• 5:19
  side
• 5:19
  of
• 5:19
  a
• 5:19
  box,
• 5:20
  it
• 5:20
  says,
• 5:20
  hey,
• 5:20
  this
• 5:21
  works
• 5:21
  with
• 5:21
  Matter,
• 5:21
  It's
• 5:22
  Matter
• 5:22
  compatible.
• 5:23
  That
• 5:24
  says
• 5:24
  that
• 5:24
  the
• 5:24
  device
• 5:25
  manufacturer
• 5:25
  that
• 5:25
  built
• 5:26
  it
• 5:26
  had
• 5:26
  to
• 5:26
  comply
• 5:26
  with
• 5:27
  the
• 5:27
  standards
• 5:27
  that
• 5:28
  Matter
• 5:28
  said
• 5:28
  that
• 5:29
  you
• 5:29
  have
• 5:29
  to
• 5:29
  do.
• 5:30
  So
• 5:30
  that
• 5:30
  means
• 5:30
  it's
• 5:31
  going
• 5:31
  to
• 5:31
  work
• 5:31
  well
• 5:31
  together.
• 5:33
  So
• 5:33
  that
• 5:33
  way
• 5:34
  your
• 5:35
  Siri,
• 5:36
  Alexa,
• 5:37
  Google
• 5:37
  and
• 5:38
  all
• 5:38
  that
• 5:38
  other
• 5:38
  stuff
• 5:39
  starts
• 5:39
  to
• 5:40
  work
• 5:40
  together.
• 5:41
  So
• 5:41
  that
• 5:42
  way
• 5:42
  you
• 5:42
  can
• 5:42
  go
• 5:42
  out
• 5:42
  and
• 5:43
  really
• 5:43
  buy
• 5:43
  whatever
• 5:43
  device
• 5:44
  you
• 5:44
  want
• 5:44
  to
• 5:44
  have
• 5:45
  and
• 5:45
  make
• 5:46
  it
• 5:46
  work
• 5:46
  together.
• 5:47
  And
• 5:48
  so
• 5:48
  that
• 5:49
  way
• 5:49
  they
• 5:49
  see
• 5:49
  each
• 5:49
  other,
• 5:50
  they
• 5:50
  work
• 5:50
  together.
• 5:51
  So
• 5:52
  it
• 5:52
  also
• 5:52
  lets
• 5:52
  you
• 5:53
  use
• 5:53
  like
• 5:53
  at
• 5:54
  my
• 5:54
  house,
• 5:54
  I'm
• 5:54
  an
• 5:54
  Apple
• 5:54
  guy,
• 5:55
  like
• 5:55
  with
• 5:55
  my
• 5:55
  iPhone,
• 5:55
  so
• 5:56
  I
• 5:56
  have
• 5:56
  an
• 5:56
  Apple
• 5:56
  home
• 5:56
  kit
• 5:57
  in
• 5:57
  there
• 5:57
  too.
• 5:58
  But
• 5:58
  how
• 5:58
  it
• 5:58
  works
• 5:58
  with
• 5:59
  that,
• 5:59
  it
• 5:59
  works
• 5:59
  with
• 5:59
  all
• 6:00
  this
• 6:00
  other
• 6:00
  stuff.
• 6:01
  So
• 6:01
  last
• 6:01
  week
• 6:01
  I
• 6:02
  installed
• 6:02
  on
• 6:02
  the
• 6:03
  TV
• 6:03
  show
• 6:04
  a
• 6:04
  brand
• 6:04
  new
• 6:05
  Akora
• 6:06
  camera
• 6:07
  that's
• 6:07
  absolutely
• 6:07
  Amazing.
• 6:08
  But
• 6:08
  when
• 6:08
  I
• 6:08
  set
• 6:08
  it
• 6:09
  up,
• 6:09
  it
• 6:09
  went
• 6:09
  into
• 6:09
  matter.
• 6:10
  It
• 6:10
  was
• 6:10
  a
• 6:10
  matter
• 6:11
  of
• 6:11
  bridge.
• 6:11
  We'll
• 6:11
  talk
• 6:11
  about
• 6:12
  that
• 6:12
  in
• 6:12
  a
• 6:12
  second.
• 6:13
  And
• 6:13
  then
• 6:13
  it
• 6:13
  also
• 6:14
  went
• 6:14
  into
• 6:14
  my
• 6:14
  Apple
• 6:15
  home
• 6:15
  kit,
• 6:15
  so
• 6:15
  I
• 6:15
  could
• 6:16
  actually
• 6:16
  go
• 6:16
  in
• 6:16
  and
• 6:16
  run
• 6:16
  it
• 6:17
  through
• 6:17
  that.
• 6:18
  So
• 6:18
  it's
• 6:18
  really
• 6:19
  cool
• 6:19
  how
• 6:19
  this
• 6:19
  stuff
• 6:20
  works.
• 6:21
  So
• 6:22
  basically
• 6:22
  we
• 6:23
  have
• 6:23
  this
• 6:23
  zigbee
• 6:24
  out
• 6:24
  there.
• 6:24
  We
• 6:24
  had
• 6:25
  Z
• 6:25
  Wave,
• 6:25
  we
• 6:26
  had
• 6:26
  all
• 6:26
  these
• 6:26
  other
• 6:26
  kind
• 6:27
  of
• 6:27
  languages,
• 6:28
  but
• 6:29
  zigbee
• 6:30
  used.
• 6:31
  It
• 6:31
  used
• 6:31
  to
• 6:31
  be
• 6:32
  the
• 6:32
  big
• 6:32
  name
• 6:32
  that
• 6:32
  was
• 6:32
  coming
• 6:33
  up.
• 6:33
  But
• 6:34
  really
• 6:34
  the
• 6:35
  csa,
• 6:35
  which
• 6:36
  was
• 6:36
  the.
• 6:36
  What
• 6:36
  was.
• 6:36
  It
• 6:36
  was
• 6:37
  the
• 6:37
  Connectivity
• 6:38
  Standards
• 6:38
  Alliance.
• 6:39
  Sorry,
• 6:39
  a
• 6:40
  lot
• 6:40
  of
• 6:40
  words
• 6:40
  right
• 6:40
  there.
• 6:41
  Maintained
• 6:42
  this
• 6:42
  new
• 6:42
  matter
• 6:43
  standard.
• 6:43
  So
• 6:43
  they're
• 6:43
  the
• 6:44
  ones
• 6:44
  that
• 6:44
  are
• 6:44
  policing
• 6:45
  this
• 6:45
  so
• 6:45
  people
• 6:45
  can
• 6:46
  make
• 6:46
  it
• 6:46
  work
• 6:46
  together.
• 6:47
  So
• 6:47
  really
• 6:48
  what,
• 6:48
  this
• 6:48
  is
• 6:48
  a
• 6:49
  language
• 6:49
  for
• 6:49
  all
• 6:49
  your
• 6:50
  new
• 6:50
  stuff
• 6:50
  to
• 6:51
  work
• 6:51
  together.
• 6:52
  Now,
• 6:53
  you
• 6:53
  will
• 6:53
  need
• 6:53
  sometimes
• 6:54
  hubs
• 6:54
  and
• 6:55
  things
• 6:55
  like
• 6:55
  that.
• 6:55
  So
• 6:56
  that
• 6:56
  way
• 6:56
  there's
• 6:56
  something
• 6:57
  that
• 6:57
  translates
• 6:59
  what
• 6:59
  your
• 7:00
  Apple
• 7:01
  device
• 7:01
  does
• 7:02
  to
• 7:02
  matter
• 7:03
  or
• 7:04
  one
• 7:04
  of
• 7:04
  your
• 7:04
  other
• 7:04
  products.
• 7:05
  But
• 7:05
  these
• 7:06
  little
• 7:06
  hubs
• 7:07
  will
• 7:07
  let
• 7:07
  things
• 7:08
  work
• 7:08
  together,
• 7:09
  so
• 7:09
  there'll
• 7:09
  be
• 7:10
  something
• 7:10
  that
• 7:10
  translates
• 7:11
  that
• 7:11
  into
• 7:11
  it,
• 7:12
  but
• 7:12
  it
• 7:12
  all
• 7:13
  works
• 7:13
  seamlessly
• 7:13
  together.
• 7:14
  So
• 7:15
  I'm
• 7:15
  not
• 7:15
  going
• 7:15
  to
• 7:15
  go
• 7:15
  into
• 7:15
  the
• 7:15
  weeds
• 7:16
  here
• 7:16
  on
• 7:16
  this
• 7:17
  because
• 7:17
  it
• 7:17
  is
• 7:17
  a
• 7:17
  heck
• 7:18
  of
• 7:18
  a
• 7:18
  boring
• 7:18
  subject
• 7:19
  when
• 7:19
  we
• 7:19
  get
• 7:19
  into
• 7:19
  this,
• 7:20
  but
• 7:21
  there
• 7:21
  are
• 7:21
  hubs,
• 7:22
  there's
• 7:22
  bridges,
• 7:23
  there
• 7:24
  are
• 7:24
  things
• 7:24
  like
• 7:24
  that
• 7:24
  let
• 7:24
  you
• 7:25
  do
• 7:26
  this.
• 7:26
  And
• 7:27
  what
• 7:27
  these
• 7:27
  things
• 7:27
  do,
• 7:27
  like
• 7:27
  a
• 7:28
  bridge,
• 7:28
  is
• 7:28
  it
• 7:28
  actually
• 7:28
  will
• 7:29
  let
• 7:29
  other
• 7:30
  devices
• 7:31
  run
• 7:31
  that
• 7:31
  are
• 7:31
  competing
• 7:32
  companies.
• 7:33
  So
• 7:33
  you
• 7:33
  can
• 7:34
  see
• 7:34
  that
• 7:34
  a
• 7:35
  light
• 7:35
  is
• 7:35
  on
• 7:36
  or
• 7:37
  what's
• 7:37
  going
• 7:37
  on
• 7:37
  with
• 7:37
  the
• 7:38
  camera
• 7:38
  settings.
• 7:39
  So
• 7:39
  these
• 7:39
  things
• 7:39
  make
• 7:40
  it
• 7:40
  a
• 7:40
  lot
• 7:40
  easier
• 7:40
  to
• 7:41
  use
• 7:41
  without
• 7:41
  having
• 7:41
  to
• 7:41
  get
• 7:42
  the
• 7:42
  different
• 7:42
  apps
• 7:43
  out
• 7:43
  there.
• 7:44
  So
• 7:44
  you
• 7:44
  can
• 7:44
  do
• 7:45
  a
• 7:45
  deep
• 7:45
  dive,
• 7:46
  jump
• 7:46
  on
• 7:47
  your
• 7:47
  favorite
• 7:47
  YouTube
• 7:48
  channel
• 7:48
  and
• 7:48
  do
• 7:49
  that.
• 7:49
  But
• 7:50
  really,
• 7:50
  this
• 7:51
  all
• 7:51
  of
• 7:51
  a
• 7:51
  sudden
• 7:51
  makes
• 7:51
  it
• 7:52
  so
• 7:52
  the
• 7:52
  light
• 7:52
  bulbs
• 7:52
  and
• 7:52
  the
• 7:53
  switches
• 7:53
  and
• 7:53
  the
• 7:53
  refrigerators
• 7:54
  and
• 7:54
  the
• 7:54
  air
• 7:55
  conditioners
• 7:55
  and
• 7:55
  the
• 7:55
  robot
• 7:56
  vacuums
• 7:57
  all
• 7:57
  are
• 7:57
  talking
• 7:59
  on
• 7:59
  different
• 8:00
  languages.
• 8:01
  And
• 8:01
  they
• 8:01
  keep
• 8:02
  adding.
• 8:02
  For
• 8:03
  instance,
• 8:03
  the
• 8:03
  First
• 8:04
  Spec
• 8:04
  Matter
• 8:04
  1.0,
• 8:05
  basically
• 8:06
  that
• 8:06
  was
• 8:06
  light
• 8:07
  bulbs,
• 8:07
  smart
• 8:07
  plugs,
• 8:08
  locks,
• 8:09
  TVs,
• 8:09
  smart
• 8:09
  blinds,
• 8:10
  garage
• 8:10
  doors,
• 8:10
  things
• 8:11
  like
• 8:11
  that,
• 8:11
  maybe
• 8:11
  some
• 8:11
  thermostats.
• 8:12
  It
• 8:12
  was
• 8:12
  simple.
• 8:13
  Then
• 8:13
  with
• 8:14
  matter
• 8:14
  1.2,
• 8:15
  they
• 8:15
  added
• 8:15
  a
• 8:15
  bunch
• 8:16
  more.
• 8:16
  So
• 8:16
  they
• 8:16
  put
• 8:17
  refrigerators,
• 8:18
  dishwashers,
• 8:19
  a
• 8:20
  lot
• 8:20
  of
• 8:20
  the
• 8:20
  smoking,
• 8:21
  carbon
• 8:21
  monoxide
• 8:21
  alarms,
• 8:22
  that
• 8:22
  kind
• 8:22
  of
• 8:22
  stuff,
• 8:23
  fans,
• 8:23
  a
• 8:23
  lot
• 8:23
  of
• 8:23
  appliances.
• 8:25
  With
• 8:25
  1.3,
• 8:26
  they
• 8:26
  added
• 8:26
  more
• 8:27
  categories.
• 8:27
  So
• 8:27
  you
• 8:28
  have
• 8:28
  energy
• 8:28
  management,
• 8:29
  you
• 8:30
  have
• 8:30
  electric
• 8:31
  vehicle
• 8:31
  chargers,
• 8:32
  leak
• 8:32
  detectors,
• 8:33
  microwaves,
• 8:33
  ovens,
• 8:34
  cooktops,
• 8:35
  dryers,
• 8:35
  that
• 8:35
  kind
• 8:36
  of
• 8:36
  stuff.
• 8:36
  This
• 8:36
  is
• 8:36
  a
• 8:37
  really
• 8:37
  big
• 8:37
  thing
• 8:37
  that's
• 8:38
  happening
• 8:38
  out
• 8:38
  there.
• 8:39
  So
• 8:39
  really,
• 8:40
  you
• 8:40
  got
• 8:40
  to
• 8:40
  really
• 8:41
  start
• 8:41
  working
• 8:41
  with
• 8:41
  making
• 8:42
  sure
• 8:42
  that,
• 8:42
  like,
• 8:43
  you
• 8:43
  get
• 8:43
  the
• 8:43
  right
• 8:44
  Hub
• 8:44
  to
• 8:44
  make
• 8:44
  these
• 8:44
  things
• 8:45
  work
• 8:45
  together.
• 8:45
  But
• 8:45
  it's
• 8:46
  not
• 8:46
  very
• 8:47
  hard
• 8:47
  and
• 8:48
  it's
• 8:48
  very
• 8:48
  easy
• 8:48
  to
• 8:49
  figure
• 8:49
  out
• 8:49
  what
• 8:49
  you
• 8:49
  need.
• 8:50
  And
• 8:50
  I
• 8:50
  hope
• 8:51
  that
• 8:51
  answers
• 8:51
  your
• 8:52
  question.
• 8:52
  Now,
• 8:53
  this
• 8:53
  weekend
• 8:53
  on
• 8:54
  the
• 8:54
  show
• 8:54
  I
• 8:54
  grabbed
• 8:55
  two
• 8:55
  episodes
• 8:55
  cause
• 8:55
  I'm
• 8:56
  down
• 8:56
  at
• 8:56
  design
• 8:56
  and
• 8:57
  construction
• 8:57
  week
• 8:57
  so
• 8:57
  we
• 8:57
  didn't
• 8:58
  have
• 8:58
  a
• 8:58
  chance
• 8:59
  to
• 8:59
  do
• 8:59
  a
• 8:59
  new
• 9:00
  show.
• 9:00
  And
• 9:00
  quite
• 9:00
  frankly,
• 9:01
  I
• 9:01
  had
• 9:01
  two
• 9:01
  amazing
• 9:01
  guests
• 9:02
  lined
• 9:02
  up
• 9:03
  and
• 9:03
  they
• 9:03
  were
• 9:03
  both
• 9:04
  out
• 9:04
  with
• 9:04
  that
• 9:05
  two
• 9:05
  week
• 9:05
  flu.
• 9:06
  So
• 9:06
  we
• 9:06
  pushed
• 9:07
  that
• 9:07
  out
• 9:07
  another
• 9:07
  couple
• 9:08
  weeks
• 9:08
  so
• 9:08
  we
• 9:08
  can
• 9:08
  put
• 9:08
  that
• 9:09
  in.
• 9:09
  And
• 9:09
  I
• 9:10
  didn't
• 9:10
  want
• 9:10
  to
• 9:11
  just
• 9:11
  throw
• 9:11
  something
• 9:12
  together.
• 9:12
  So
• 9:12
  I
• 9:12
  grabbed
• 9:13
  a
• 9:13
  couple
• 9:13
  episodes
• 9:14
  this
• 9:14
  weekend
• 9:15
  that
• 9:15
  aired
• 9:15
  during
• 9:16
  the
• 9:16
  holidays
• 9:16
  in
• 9:17
  different
• 9:17
  times
• 9:17
  where
• 9:18
  just
• 9:19
  because
• 9:19
  all
• 9:19

• 9:20
  you
• 9:20
  guys
• 9:20
  were
• 9:20

• 9:21
  I
• 9:21
  think
• 9:21
  a
• 9:21
  lot
• 9:21
  of
• 9:21
  people
• 9:22
  missed
• 9:22

• 9:22
