• 0:01
  Speaker 1: You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: six forty KFI.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: I'm Bill Handle, as I tell myself every morning when
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: I look in the mirror, they like you. Yeah, oh, guys,
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: very depressing. Some of the big stories we are looking at.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: There is a singer in Iran, a female singer who
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: has just been sentenced to seventy four lashes for performing
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: without her He job on everybody to come here. We
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: had to do that. It's a true story, by the way.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: That's because it's so crazy out there in the world. Okay,
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: it is time for tech Tuesday with Rich Dumurrow. Rich
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: heard every Saturday right here on KFI eleven to two pm,
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: and you can see him every day on KTLA. Follow
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: him on Instagram at Rich on Tech. Rich. Good morning,
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: and it is Prime Day, or the first of several
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: Prime Days at Amazon. So we do this every year.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Best tips for vetting? Are there really good deals? Tell me?
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah? So good morning to you, Bill, And yes, I
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: feel like we talk about Prime Day once a year.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: They usually do like one Prime Day and now it's
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: like one other, like Big Sale Day or something. And
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: if you notice this year, Prime Day is a lot earlier.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Typically it's in July. They pushed it, they pushed a
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: little bit this year, or brought it forward, whatever you
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: want to call it. It's running today through Friday. So
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: my advice is the standard every year. Number one, don't
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: just buy. Don't just go to the website and look
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: for things to buy, because if you do that, you'll
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: waste money. So if you have a list of things,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: look around your house, think about the upcoming birthdays and
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: holidays and the stuff that you actually need or after replace.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: And that's the kind of stuff that you should be
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: buying during these four days because pretty much every company
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: is offering some sort of deal. Not everything's on sale,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: but a lot of things are. And so that's my
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: number one tip is to you know well already, look
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: in your save for later lists, see if there's any
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: discounts there. Look for your buy again. You can go
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: to Amazon dot com slash buy again. That'll show you
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: all the things you've purchased. And then, of course this year,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: look at the price history. Amazon has expanded their price
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: history to give you one year of information. And so
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: what I like to do is you tap the little
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: price history icon or link next to the price and
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: then this will bring up their AI tool, which is
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: now called Alexa for shopping, and you can say, give
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: me the best two prices this product has been over
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: the past year, and if the current price is lower
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: than that, then Hey or similar, then it's a good
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: time to buy now.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: I want to compare Amazon to Temu because when you
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: talk about household items or things that are not insanely expensive,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: you go on Temu and you're going to get, of course,
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: bombarded with ads for every Chinese restaurant within half a mile.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: But your thoughts of using that Chinese based Amazon, if
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: you will.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: I don't recommend it typically because I mean, look, people
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: do it. I think that you know, there was a
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Heyday for Timu. I mean in a lot of the
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: products you see on Amazon, yes they originate from China.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: But I just feel like you can you know, Amazon
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: is a much more kind of recognized brand. And also
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: you can't discount the return policy and the ease of returns.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: I don't think you can drop off a Temu return.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Maybe you can, I don't know, I've never used it,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: but you know Amazon, you can drop off your returns
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: at a Whole Foods or a UPS store and they
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: will take anything. I returned a pair of sneakers that
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: I wore for a couple of days they didn't fit right,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: and no problem. They you know, took them right back
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: and gave me my entire money back. So I think
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Amazon has just nailed it when it comes to customer service.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: When I was researching the products that I recommend for
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Prime Day, which by the way, you can find on
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: my website rich on Tech dot Tv, I've got a
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: huge Prime Day gift you know, shopping guide. I explain
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: all the stuff I just talked about. Plus I've linked
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: up everything that I do recommend. And while I was
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: researching that, I noticed so many of the products. Now
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: on Amazon you can pay an extra five dollars and
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: they'll deliver them to within three hours, which is just wild.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: I'm not personally paying anymore for shipping, but you know,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: it's nice to have that option.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Tech Tuesday with rich Our Tech Guy, Saturday's eleven A
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: two pm, right eleven am to two pm here on
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: KFI KTLA, every day Instagram, at rich on tech website.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: It's never written down, so I always it's a rich.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: On Tech dot Tv. Actually, Mill, you know, I did
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: something wild. I went ahead and finally bought rich on
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: tech dot com after fifteen years. You know, it took
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: me fifteen years to get that, and I had to
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: pay a pretty penny. But I have it rich on
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: tech dot com.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: I'm not even gonna ask how much it costs, do
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: you know? Uh, here is a story and I have.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: My nephew is in the car business, and every all
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: the time for his he sells cars and he looks
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: through these the vanity plates, what's available and what isn't?
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: And I found that was available? What be a whole? No, No,
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: that's not true. It is he found KFI. Oh isn't that.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: You shouldn't have anything because now someone's going to scoop
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: it up.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Oh no, no, we already reserved it. Oh no, no, no,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: it's it's already been reserved, otherwise I wouldn't say it.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: So I'm going to use it and then when I
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: leave KFI, I'm going to sell it to them for
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: fifty thousand dollars. When it said March, it's mark. Yeah, Okay,
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: moving on, it's a prime day and let's do it.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Some of the the great, good, big items that rich
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: has put on his website regarding Prime Day, so let's
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: do it.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Rich Yeah, and I love Prime Day because things actually
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: do go on sale. But again, like I said, always
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: do a price check. If you're feeling the pressure to
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: buy something and you're like not sure, check the price.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: If it's something that's like, you know, five dollars off
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: or not even a real price discount, don't worry about it.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: But if it's something that you actually need, like a
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: pair of headphones, like a new TV, like a new laptop,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: any sort of tech accessory like a portable charger. A
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: lot of these things are on sale right now. I've
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: got them listed on my website rich on tech dot TV,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: and I went through and I put the stuff that
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: I actually like and recommend, and a lot of it
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: I have tested and used personally or I've had experts
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: on my radio show recommend it, so I know that
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: it's going to be a quality piece of equipment. So
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: a couple of things that I really like today. Number one,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: you've got this. Laptops are very expensive right now, we
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: know that for sure, but you can get some pretty
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: good deals on laptops. So one in particular that I
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: really like is called the Asus Vivo Book and you
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: can get that right now for under four hundred dollars.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Three hundred and fifty nine dollars for a laptop fifteen inches.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I like that one a sert. They've got one that's
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: a fifteen inch laptop as well for two hundred ninety
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: six dollars. I did like this twenty twenty four MacBook
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: M three. It was eight hundred dollars. Right now it's
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: out of stock because clearly that has sold out already,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: so people are buying those TVs. You can get a
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: one a fifty inch TV for one hundred and forty
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: nine dollars. That is incredible. When they mentioned it, a
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: guest mentioned this on my radio show this weekend. It
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: was three hundred dollars. Now it's one hundred and fifty dollars,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: so there's a real big discount. Samsung, if you want
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: an Android tablet, you can get the Samsung tablet for
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy dollars. A dash cam that I
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: like one hundred and four dollars if you want to
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: keep tabs on things. My favorite portable charger it's the
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Anchor mag Goo Power Bank. It has an Apple Watch
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: charger built in, so one less cable to carry when
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: you travel. It's typically like eighty bucks. It's on sale
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: for fifty today. I carry that thing every single place
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: I go. If you don't need an Apple Watch charger,
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: you just need a standard charger for your phone. I
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: love this Belkin portable charger that'll charge your phone a
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: couple of times. Twenty dollars today on Prime Day, and
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: the list just goes on and on. Bill I've got
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: so many picks on my website.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: How do prices on just say you, for example, TVs
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: Prime Day, app Abazon price versus let's say going to Costco,
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: compare the two.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: I would say, Okay, So I'm looking at this TCL
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: fifty five inch TV. It's highly rated q M seven K.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: It is four hundred and ninety eight dollars. That is
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: the cheapest price in an entire year. The cheapest price
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: for this TV before that was about six hundred dollars.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: So you're talking still one hundred dollars less than the
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: cheapest price on this TV for the past year. So
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: I think today particularly, it'd be tough to find a
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: better deal at Costco. Although you know a lot of
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: these other retailers like Target, Best buy Walmart. They have
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: their own competing sales, so no matter what, it's probably
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: a good time to buy. In general, the tough thing
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: about Costco is that in this they did this for years.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: They typically would change the model number just a little
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: bit on TVs. So if you're inside Costco and you're
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: googling that model number to try to figure out the
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: price where it is everywhere else, it's really tough to
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: do because they might have added like one extra keyword
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: or one extra character or something to it.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, Ai powered Siri, talk about that when we
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: only have a couple of minutes.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no problem. So I've been using the new
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: version of iOS twenty seven. Do not do what I did,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: which is an install it on your primary device. But
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm a nerd, I'm a tester, I'm a tinkerer,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: and so I put the developer beta. That means there
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: are so many bugs on this thing. Half the time
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: I do something on my phone, there's an error. So
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: don't do this, But I do it for you to
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: test it out. And I'm telling you, the new Ai
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: SII is absolutely incredible.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: Bill.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: I actually feel sorry for Chatgybt no joke because so
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: many people now are going to default to Siri to
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: do all the little things they used to be doing
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: on chatgybt, which is like, ask these silly questions now
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: instead of thinking that Seri's not gonna be able to
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: answer it. Not only can she answer it, she understands
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: what's on your screen, what's in your email, what's in
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: your messages, what's in everything on your phone, your photos?
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: And it is really good. So when this comes out
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: later this year in September, people are going to say, Apple,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: you did it again. You actually delivered. It took you
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: longer than everyone else, but you finally did it, and
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Siri AI is going to be incredible.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Now is that automatic? I have Siri? I use Siri
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: when this comes out, do I have to download anything
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: or just becomes part of what I have?
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Depending on your phone, phone most the best experience you're
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: going to need, like an iPhone fifteen Pro and up.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: Okay, and I think I do because I got the
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: latest version until the new one comes out. Okay, it's
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: going to a.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Lot of people to buy a new phone.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Apple tends to do that no matter what. Okay, Saturday
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: from eleven to two pm, Rich is here heard here
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: live also KTLA. Every day website is a rich On
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: TV or a rich On tech dot TV is the website? Right?
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: Correct?
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: Oh good, I got I have it.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: I have it.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: It's not written, I don't say it. Matter of fact,
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: my name isn't there. Yeah, let me tell you, it's
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: really pathetic. If my name isn't there, I can't remember it.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: All right, rich take care, We'll catch on Saturday and
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: thank you bye. All right, Okay, what's going on? Well,
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: the big story internationally, of course, is the US in
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Iran have begun negotiations and a deal sort of a
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: deal has been cut, well, a deal has been cut
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: to cut a deal, and everybody's agreed that they're trying
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: to secure a broader deal, a real deal, within sixty days.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: And there's some problems there because one of the big
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: issues is that Iran said we're not signing anything until
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Israel stops fighting in Lebanon has Belah. And so the
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: ICE the United States agreed the problems that couldn't get
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: Israel to agreed, and so the two sides are going
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: to need to address a bunch of other issues. Sanctions
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: relief for Iran, the three hundred billion dollar Reconstruction Fund,
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: and effectively, what the United States wants is opening the
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: Strait of horn Mooze, which it looks like it has
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: been opened at least for sixty days. It looks like
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: it's a free transit of international shipping at this point,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: which is great news. And then the rest of it, Now,
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: what still has to be argued between the two. How
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: about Iran's ballistic missile program not really on the table?
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: How about state sponsored support of Jesbollah and the UTIs
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: not really on the table. And so also what is
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: on the table is this frameworks signed last week that
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: opened the door to unfreezing billions of dollars in Iranian
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: assets and lifting those sanctions on the country, suggesting that
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: would be addressed immediately in negotiations. Well, this is a
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: question of timelines. Now the strait is open, but that's
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: the same thing that was opened before the war. As
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: a matter of fact, right now, it's exactly what happened
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: before the war, and it's been promised that it will
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: go for at least sixty days. Now comes the rest
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: of it. The attack on Iran. The reasons went from
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: regime change, which has not happened. Although the administration says
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: there is regime change because the leadership in Iran has
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: been wiped out and the secondary leadership has been killed.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Therefore that's regime change. Who are we kidding? Also, we're
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: talking about the ballistic missile program. That was a big deal.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: The state sponsor of terrorism around the world, that was
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: a huge deal, and that was part of the attack.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: You also have the manufacturer and the firing of drones,
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: which are the most effective way these days to attack
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: an enemy. That is off the table. So the only
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: thing that's on the table now is the nuclear program.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: And so far Iran what we've heard, according to Van
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: Vice President Vance is Iran has agreed that they will
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: not build a nuclear program, a nuclear weapons program. Well,
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: how about international enforcement overseeing that program? Which did happen
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: when Obama cut his deal. One of the ways, one
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: of the platforms that god Trump elected is how bad
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: the Obama deal was, and he got out of it
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: immediately upon becoming president. He said we're done, and so
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: he renegged on the deal. He withdrew from the deal.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: And now it looks like has what is being negotiated
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: is worse than that. After eighty billion dollars is what
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: the Pentagon toal senators to cover the cost of the
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: war so far, eighty billion dollars. That's bad news. Now
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: if it turns out that Iran does agree to stopping
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: its nuclear weapons program, enriching the uranium, which it has
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: not yet said it's going to still wants to keep
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: that going as far as we know, giving up the
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: enriched uranium, which there's what nine hundred thousand pounds of
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: virtually weapons grade uranium that they have created. That has
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: they've been talk about that, but again that's all negotiations.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: Further on in the negotiations are the frozen assets that
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: are going to be released. That's a big priority. The
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: sanctions that are going to be lifted. As a matter
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: of fact, right now this moment, sanctions have been lifted
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: to the point where they're on. For years, has not
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: been able to sell its oil on the open market.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: It has to be doing it under the table for cash,
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: effectively discount. The United States has lifted that sanction temporarily,
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: we don't know for how long. For the sixty days
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: where iron is now selling and couldn't for years putting
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: its oil on the open market, and the United States
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: is letting Iran do that because the United States basically
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: controls the shipping of oil not only directly, but it's
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: such a juggernaut, it so controls the world economy still
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: that it can tell countries you're not buying Iranian oil,
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: and they really have no choice because of the power
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: that they in this case, what the president has. So
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: we'll see what happens. The devil is going to be
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: in the details. Right now, at this moment, it looks
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: like Iran is way ahead of the game. They've done
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: better than the United States with these negotiations, no matter
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: what the administration is saying. And there are a bunch
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: of Republicans, by the way, I mean a bunch of
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Republicans who are really unhappy with this deal. Now Japan,
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: when the Japanese people aren't bombing Pearl Harbor or eating sushi,
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: what they want to do is sleep because they don't.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: The Japanese get the least amount of sleep of all
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: major countries, and so there is a market to help
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: people fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer, because they
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: understand how important that is. On the average, a Japanese
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: person sleeps almost an hour and a half less than Americans. Why, Well,
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: long commute times, Boy do they commute, long work hours,
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: and a culture that doesn't really emphasize sleep or the
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: importance of sleep. So it's become a billion dollar industry,
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: and that's catering to people who want to improve their
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: quality of sleep, even if they don't get those hours
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: as Americans do. So they have sleep tech products that
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: are going way beyond usual aids like imasks or those
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: comfortable pillows. Think smart beds and gadgets, Oh boy, gadgets
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: like crazy. There is and I'm looking looking at it
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: right now, the zzz and Sleep Apparel system. It's a prototype,
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: but it's coming out designed to help users powernap for
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: twenty minutes. It's like one of those full body hoodies
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: that you wrap around yourself and it helps you sleep.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: They're speakers in there that play music to help you sleep.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Now, there are several brands in Japan
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: selling pajamas made of special fiber claim to boost a
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: muscle recovery and blood circulation. How do you say fraud
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: in Japanese? Because all of these products are complete crap.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: But I'll tell you what is not crap. According to
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: the experts, is that twenty minute power nap. And that's
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: what really this is all about, is products to help
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: you twenty minute powernap. I've never understood a twenty minute
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: power nap. Never. If I am napping during the days,
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: I am gone for three hours and I'm groggy until
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: I go to sleep. I have all Oh, I feel
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: refreshed after twenty minutes. How do you do that? Amy?
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Do you do the twenty minute nap? I do? Oh? Wow?
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: When I get home from work, I usually I just
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: lay down and I sleep. Usually I think I should
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: sleep more, but I wake up and I go okay,
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: I feel better. I usually find that with drugs, mainly amphetamine,
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: there's nothing like math talking about math Kono who lives
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: in Methland. Do you do a nap? No? I don't
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: live in beautiful lo Molinda, and I do, but I
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: double it. It's a forty minute alarm set. Yeah, I
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: don't get it. I've never understood a twenty minute nap,
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: but people do. So there's oh the nap box, and
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: it's used all over Tokyo and it's all about getting
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: and I love this non rem stage to sleep. And
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: it's a box you stand up in it's like a
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: phone booth, and uh, it puts you to sleep and
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: you nap and I don't know, you know, I don't
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: know how do you nap standing up? That does not
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: sound good to me, but it's what they're saying it works.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: I think none of this works. I think it's all complete,
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: utter fraud. I think what you're gonna do is the
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: guy who does my pillows is going to be buying
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: into this thing and it'll be my napbox. Except I
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: think you really do froggy. Well, there you are Japanese.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: That's what fraud. Oh yeah, oh thank you. Yeah. It's
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: the Naggy Sake company frog Nagi Sagi nagy Sagi or
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: the Sagi nagy Oh. How about this, it's the Sagi
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: nap box that uh, it's it's it pretends it puts
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: rain on you because it's soggy. That didn't work. Sometimes
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: it does, sometimes it doesn't. We're done, guys, Gary and
