• 0:30
  Speaker 1: I just thought about that before we said down. He's like,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: I need a cup of coffee. Is it brewing?
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: At least it's well it should be. You know. I

  Speaker 3: finally got me one of those cheap old uh uh
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: the pod thing. What is it they curry the curate.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: They got one of those, but I mean it's the
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: cheapy one though. I have to fill up the in
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: the thing with a cup of water every.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Time, right right, every time?
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: Every time it doesn't have the canister in the back
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: that holes you know, four or six whatever version of
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: this is. Every time.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Oh man, we've got one at the uh the super
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: sale bin store and we've talked about them before. I
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: don't know if you've been yet, but we got one
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: for fifteen dollars that had the big reservoir in the
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: back and the whole bit, and uh brought it home
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: and then Gloria took it to work so it's used
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: there because they didn't have one. And then once you know,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: the big currig we had that had a pot with
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: it so you can make a pot of coffee. And
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: then you had the K cup so you can make
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: the CA cup version it had the big reservoir. It died.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: It finally just died. It was making a weird sound
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: like a jet engine. So we went to h We
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: went to go to wally World and bought one for
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: fifty five bucks. But at least it'll hold enough water
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: for three cake three K cups. It's you know, but
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: if you have to replace it every time.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, one day, you know, one day I'll graduate up
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: to something else. I did invest in that little basket
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: that goes in where you can put in coffee. Oh yeah, yeah,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: I got one of those.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Oh that's good. Then that's good. Got to make your
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: own because that's.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Not getting there. I'm getting a little step at the time.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Uh, that's why we used to like doing the show
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: years ago. Those they may remember that we did the
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: actually show from Roadrunner Coffee Remember that, Yeah, Yeah, it
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: was a lot of fun.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, waitress over the days, man, a lot of the days.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Yes, a slick on coffee is always great.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: Are you still going to the bin store that that
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: you've been talking about?
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Hey, you know, it's been a little while. The last
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: time I went there, I ended up buying a microphone,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: the fuf Fine microphone that I showed on TV, the
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: RGB one.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: How is that, Mike? Have you usually what's the sound quality?
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you. We got the Logitar Logitech ORB, which
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: I like. Logitechniques great products, and then we got the
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: fuf Fine and I put him next to each other. Now,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: the Fine microphone is UH connects. There's a USBC connector
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: on the bottom of it connects via USB a UH
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: and it's RGB so it gets its power and does RGB.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: So if you're on Twitch, you're if you're you know,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: doing an Instagram reel, it's gonna look good. And I thought, well,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: let's let's compare both of them and see the sound quality.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Now you'll remind you the Logitech orb is a run
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: around one hundred bucks, one hundred dollars, one hundred and
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: twenty dollars microphone. It's small, round cube, it's very nice.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: And then the fine runs about fifty five bucks. They
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: sounded almost the same.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: That's what scared me. I was afraid that would be
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: the judgment.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: They sounded almost the same, to the point where if
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: I was using the fora fine, I would be fine
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: with using that in a podcast situation or you know,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: I obviously wouldn't do it for you know, professional radio
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: or professional commercial production, but for for a zoom it
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: would be great. It would be it would work.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: Heaven forbid your your peercu using a fifty five dollars microproblem.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Well, I thought it was funny. So when I worked
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: for I worked for a big organization called Westwood One,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: and I was doing radio broadcasters across the country. I
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: would leave here the radio station KEGVY in the morning,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: I would go home and then I would record for
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: stations in Pittsburgh and I would do stations in one
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: I really love the station in Florida, Johnny owen Is
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: station WOMP FM. I would do those, and I had
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: about from what I understand, I think it was like
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: seventy maybe seventy five stations that I would do and
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I would just do it right here in the studio
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: that I'm in right now. And the thing is, they
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: sent me an SM fifty eight when we were doing
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: doing it from home, you know, because I would go normally,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: I would go into the radio station that's part of
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: that organization, and I would do it there. And they
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: had the RI twenties or RI twenty seven's microphones, which
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: are pretty good. But they sent me an SM fifty eight,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: and I thought, this is like the workhorse microphone that
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: you'll see the mobile DJs use. You'll see public address used,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: not really for broadcasting. So I ended up hooking on
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: my SM seven B and I use that and it worked.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: It worked out good. But yeah, I mean the the
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: f fine microphone. And again I saw two or three
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: of those over at the super sale bin store. They
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: worked pretty good. I found a lot of stuff there, Slick.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: I have found microphone arms. I have found ring lights.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: I mean, we're the ones for the table. You both
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: to the table and okay.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you got a little clamp. See clamp. You go
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: ahead and clamp it right to the table. I found
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: ring lights, you know, not the the the big lull
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: ring lights that I have, but I mean all kinds
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: of stuff. Tablets.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: The tablet was kind of slow, but I gave it
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: to my grandkid, so you know, go ahead and have
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: fun with it. You'll break another one. It's like.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: When you say ring light, that's the one that I've
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: seen people, what do I want to call them? They're
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: doing the lifestyle thing with the phone all the time.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: They're always on the phone. Yeah, that's it. Yeah, shows
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: one he's got. It's a circle light everyone, and he
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: puts his there's a stand in the middle of it.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: That's where he puts his phone.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And I mean it puts out pretty good light
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: and it just gives you an overall fill type of
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: light situation which looks good. Logitech has a light that
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: I absolutely love that's on a stand and instead of
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: it being a ring, it's a bar and it's a
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: fluorescent bar light, and it just it looks really good
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: and it gives you a good fill from either side,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: whereas the ring is kind of centered and you get
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: that ring look in the on the eyeballs. If you've
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: ever watched somebody in our creator that does videos. So
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: it's okay.
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: You know, I'm afraid to ask, what are you using
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: your ring light for? Andy?
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: You know what, I've used it twice for videos for
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: like you know, for conference call videos.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: Just asking that I used to use all different things,
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: that's all I'm saying.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't have an only fans all right, So no.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: You know what, as crazy as it sounds, I know
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: how this gon say, but I'm thinking about getting one
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: just because of the web address, just because you know,
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: just because of the earl, the universal resources.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: It would belong to you, everybody gets.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: You know that.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: It's funny because we used to recommend that back when
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: you know, the web was really beginning. I mean, you know,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: back when we were in Palm Springs doing the show,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: and even you know, the early days with U Slick,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: we would talk about domains and we would say grab them,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: get every domain you can if you but you know,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: the cost of domains has gone up, so you're gonna
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: find that, you know. But remember the companies like go Daddy,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Host Kater, some of the companies out there that that
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: sell domains, they'll sell you a domain, but they're gonna
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: try and get it to you for five years. You
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: can purchase a year and go year to year.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: Oh I didn't know that.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I have done this before where I have
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: watched a television show like King of Queens where they
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: not they mentioned a web domain. I went online and looked,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: and nobody owned the domain. I'm thinking that's free advertising,
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: And of course I bought the domain. I owned it
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: for a little while and then I thought this is stupid.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: I got rid of it.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you didn't make a profit on it.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: One I remember, not long ago there was Ann Wilson
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: for President. Now, for those of you who know who
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Ann Wilson is, she is a member of the group
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Heart and back in the last election they she had
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: put out shirts where somebody had put out shirts and
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Wilson for President with their photo on that. So I
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: went and looked and sure enough, Ann Wilson for President
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: dot com was totally available, and so I bought it.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: But I, you know, me being mister knisky, I ended
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: appointing it to her official official domain. I don't think
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: it's pointing. I don't think it's pointing anymore, but I
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: still own the domain, but.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: You didn't get any credit for it because I did
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: the same thing kind of some with some social media accounts.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: Gretchen Wilson, who hangs out with Big and Rich and
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: remember that music mafia. She started her own label and
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: I don't I'm trying to remember what it is. And
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: I because I still.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Might might have her own record label, right, yeah, record label.
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: So I grabbed for you know, the Twitter at the time,
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: that Twitter and Facebook and others. I grabbed the the
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: name all those on those services for her. And I
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: was holding it because I wanted to get it to her.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: But I never did get it to her, and I
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: think her label folded anyway. I wanted to gran and
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: and it's really because I have a thing for Gretchen Wilson.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: You were hoping this would be the gateway to meet her,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: you know, to offer up the domain. Yeah.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: Actually, and Rich once when they came to Tucson here
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: and I told I told Kitty, I said, you got.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Kenny could have done it. Yeah, yes, never happened.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: No, I didn't.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Uh man, what a shame. But you know that that's
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: the thing though, It makes you wonder. Okay, so we
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: do we have all the gamut of domains for tech
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Talk radio. Of course, when we purchased the dobain over
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: gosh over ten years ago, it was in Pump Springs.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: There was a gentleman that had tech talk dot com
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: and nice guy uh. As a matter of fact, we
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: we kind of went back and forth, and I believe
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: he still may even own that domain, not sure. But
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: then when we decided, okay, well let's go in the
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: radio direction for it, we went ahead and did that.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: But of course we had to get all of them.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: We got biz gov oh yeah, yeah, dot org, well
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: we didn't get gov, we got dot org, we got
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: you know, dot net, the whole bit, and we've been playing.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: It's nice because when you buy a website generally, or
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: when you get your hosting at least uh. We used
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: to be with go Daddy, we were with Innerland before that,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: and then we're we're with the different domain company. Now
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: you can buy a plan that will allow you to
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: put sub domains in there. So what that means is, say,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: like even somebody listening here in Green Valley, you know
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Green Valley Bingo Club, so you have you know, Green
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Valley Bingo Club, and then you have you know Bingo
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Winners as a sub domain or the Green Valley b
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: G or BC. So again you can have different variations
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: of that domain name to all point to a domain
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: or even a different website for that organization or that club.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: And the thing is is that all goes into one
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: hosting plan and depending on the plan you get, you know,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: generally they're gonna cost you about three four five hundred
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: dollars a year, depending on which company are with, what
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: services you have with that, you know, you have backup services,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: the whole bit. We used to recommend that we get
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: all the domains you can, you know, why not, But
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: now things are different. People are not buying websites. You
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: can even go to websites, and you know, you go
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: to these companies and say, yeah, the website's not that
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: important to us. What's important is social media.
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: I guess. I mean, I like social media, but sometimes
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: it just you know, and I tried to You're the
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: one that got me really into because this was back
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: in the days of MySpace. Oh you know, I was
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: on I was on a radio station and a list
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: of called and said, what's your MySpace? And I said,
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: I don't. I don't have one. Yeah, you don't have one.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: You gotta get a MySpace. I got to MySpace. As
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: we move forward in time, Andy, I told this story
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: before Andy tells me, oh, you got to get on Facebook.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: Everybody's on Facebook. All of our peers are on Facebook.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: You gotta all right, Andy, So I get on Facebook, right,
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: And he was right, he was right. But the networking purposes.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: I don't think we had an idea that MySpace was
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: going to meld into to Facebook and Facebook was going
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: to be the big, the big daddy of it all.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: It seemed like MySpace had it all. But then when
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: you looked at you know how many connections you were
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: making on on Facebook and there you know there are
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: people who have been on Facebook that have left Facebook instead.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: I'm never going back on there again. There are problems
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: still with Facebook, no matter no matter how you look
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: at it. You know, you may report a fake account,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: you may report content that you should not be on there,
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: and you're gonna get nothing from the company. They're just
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: not going to do anything.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you and if this has happened
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: to you, but to me and other of our radio brethren,
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: we were locked out of our accounts be cause they
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: didn't like the names we were using.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, oh you're not using a real name. Yes, It's like,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: how can you be called slick? Yeah?
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm like, I'm not using my birth name. I'm
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: using my nickname as my nickname is what everybody calls me.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And that was a big problem for a lot
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: of people in radio, and some celebrities were able to
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: get around that with you know, their agents getting the
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: accounts like on LinkedIn even you know, because you're supposed
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: to use your one hundred percent real name, and a
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: lot of people in radio, I know a lot of people,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: you know, they they don't they don't use the real name.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: I mean I went to broadcasting school with a guy
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: whose last name was callis Vart He changed it to Michael's.
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: Oh that makes sense, but.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: I mean that's that's exactly the whole. And then people
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: couldn't get verified. You could get there's so many things
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: to go through to try and get that, and you know,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: no matter what X does or Twitter or Facebook, you know,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: and then you've got other social media now, and you know,
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: it's funny you look at the ages of people on Facebook.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: It is rare.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm not gonna say rare, but you don't see
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: as many of the under twenty year olds on Facebook
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: as we saw maybe ten years ago. Yeah, they're all
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: on Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok and some of the other the
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: other services that are out there.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: And I kind of get that. I mean, there was
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: a time and it was years ago, even when the
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: reports were coming in that you know, Facebook is for
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: old people. Okay, you know I get it because we
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: we were on there and we were sticking with it.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: I get it.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: There was even a book do you remember that we
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: had the authors on Facebook for seniors.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: And then so you know, eventually I did get the
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: because of the Twitter I started. I get on Twitter
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: because I need for the shortness of it, you know,
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: I felt like I could just send out some short messages.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: Instagram I finally got on. Now here's the here's where
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: you and I have diverged in the past and probably
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: still currently. So Snapchat, I don't see the need or
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: want or I don't get it. Don't get Snapchat.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's uh, it's really interesting how Snapchat works. And
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: there are a lot of people that are actually now
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: getting a little older now they're in their their twenties
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: to thirties even early forties that are getting on Snapchat
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: and then they will follow and they will you know,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: follow content. So again does that translate? So the whole
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: purpose is so you got a website or you've got
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: a product, you've got a service? Is that that that
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: that link creating content or creating a flow of business
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: for you the client? You just having fun, you know.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: I mean you saw the ad this past week, which
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: actually kind of surprised me. I didn't know they were
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: going to do this. If you remember last week on
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: the show, we were Grace with Alison Gaciola, who is
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: the new manager for the upcoming opening for Cursel and
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: they're going to be opening at the two soon Mall
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: and her people. The PR People is a company they
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: have obviously it's not done out of the local store.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: They're the ones that reached out to and I wanted
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: to talk about the grand opening. They had sent me
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: the photo of Alison and I took the text and
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: I put it on the photo and I use it
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: and I explained you if they said on every interview
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: we do on our website, we or the radio show,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: we like to have a picture of that person we're
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: talking to. It's more personal, you know, whether it's uh,
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Bill Gates, you put a photo of them up there,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: or or Allison put a photo of her. So we did.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: They were happy that they they did that. When you know,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: the next day, I started seeing ads using that link
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: and it wasn't linking to the audio only it linked
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: right to our website, to tech talk Radio, and they
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: said listen to the discussion with Alison. And I'm still
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: seeing it. I've seen it on reels, I've seen it
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: on Snapchat, I've seen it on Facebook, you know, And
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: and I like that because that shows they have they
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: have a service or a product, their new store. They
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: want to get the word out about it, so they're
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: sharing with people. Hey, come to listen to tech Talk Radio.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: You'll hear this interview, and hopefully it'll get us some
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: people who will listen to the show on a regular basis.
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: Are you on TikTok?
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: Yes, I am, and I am not. I'm just you know,
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: it's funny. We've talked about the problems with TikTok and
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: the information that's being shared, and I will not be
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: on it for a while, and then I'll I've got
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: it on my device. Some people say, don't. You shouldn't
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: even have it in your device, and I'll open it up.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: And my cousin actually know, she's my niece. She's on
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: it quite a bit and I like watching summer videos
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: that she posts. And my daughters are on it. So
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: you know, I can like, I can, I can like things,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: and once in a while I'll post something on there.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: But there are some people that say they won't they
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: will not get on TikTok for that same reason I
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: won't shop at Timu. Maybe that's the next step, but
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: I I don't mind TikTok as much.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I even tried to do I guess a lot
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: of a lot of things I do offline and then
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: try to make them available online. So there was a time,
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: and it's still kind of technically that is the case.
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: I don't have a cell phone service, don't pay for it.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: And I lost my Lifeline service, which was the free
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: one that you know if you if you're poor, you
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: can get that service. Well that went away. So then
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: I wasn't online until I had access to Wi Fi.
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: So there was something interesting I can't remember. I wish
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: I could remember what it was I could tell you everybody,
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: but I wanted to take a video. I wanted to
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: record a video and share it with everyone because it
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: was kind of interesting, not necessarily funny, but you'd be like,
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: really those videos, and through the apps on my devices,
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: I could not while offline record a video. I tried Instagram,
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: I tried Facebook. I would have to use the camera
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: function of the device, record the video and then upload it.
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: I was under the impression these apps and services had
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: set it up so you could just right through their
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: interface record the video.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but it didn't let you record it on the
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: device and then upload it right.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: That's the only way I was able to get it done.
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: Really disappointed me. The way the instantaneousness.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: I will tell you about some I just checked out
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: last week. I gave it a test, and if you've
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: seen our video with Sean and I talking in that
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: segment from last week, I was pretty impressed with it.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Now I'm trying to justify the cost, and I don't
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: know if I have yet, but here's what it is,
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: called opus clips, and it's O P U S C
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: L I P S And here's what you could do.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: And when we look at this day and age of
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: social media and sharing video content, because honestly, a podcast
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: is important, but video content rules that will you'll you'll
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: probably get more views of video content on social media,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: you'll get a good following of podcast people that listen
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: to podcasts like they do, listen to this one. But
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: the video is pretty amazing. Here's what it does. So say,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: now we're we're doing a zoom chat. We could be
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: doing a skype chat, or we could be doing you know,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: a wire cast bringing you in that way chat right,
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: and you take that video after it's done, and you
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: upload it to Opus clips. Opus clips goes through it
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: and it takes about maybe I want to say, fifteen minutes,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: and it will take an hour, say an hour of
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: us discussing, and it will then transcribe and give you
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: clips based on the discussions you were having. So last
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: week Sean and I were talking about the audio that
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: they found from the eighties of talking about technology and
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: computers and the internet, kind of like what we do.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: But this is in the eighties interviews with Bill Gates
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: and other trendsetters, Timothy Leary in the tech world. But
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: we talked about it and it took that and it
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: turned it into a one minute clip of our discussion.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: It even and what it does is it takes it
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: to the same the right ratio. The ratio that you're
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: shooting like we're shooting in right now is generally, you know,
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: nineteen twenty by twelve eighty, you could do seven twenty
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: by four to eighty. But the ratio for TikTok videos,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Instagram real videos, Facebook stories, YouTube stories or shorts is
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: a different ratio. It looks like you're looking at a
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: smartphone and it takes it puts it in that correct ratio.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: But say I move out of the frame. It uses
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: AI to move the shots, so it follows me as
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: I'm moving, crops the shot. It crops it and moves
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: with it, and it uses AI to create the translation,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: AI to create the clip. The service itself is free.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: You could create for the first time just by using
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: it free again, and then you can download the clips
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: if you get the actual service, which is one hundred
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: and seventy five dollars a year.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: You can then auto share, so you can auto share,
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: so you create create one sequence and say I like
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: this one, it can auto share them to Instagram reels
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: TikTok snapchat to YouTube shorts, which is all that's where
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: a lot of people are going to now for some
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: of these short videos as YouTube. But it can do
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: that all in one move and not bad. Now there's
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: a plan that's fifteen dollars a month, or you can
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: do the annual, which is a better savings because you'll
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: get more storage, more features of that and opus clips.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: That just one of the companies. Now, when they first
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: started out about a year ago, I think the reviews
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: weren't that great. They weren't like one hundred percent. But
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: it seems like people are absolutely using it a lot
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: more and liking it. And again I was pretty impressed.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: Well we'll do that probably with this one.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: Oh I was thinking of it. Yeah, so you're out
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: of a job.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: Huh yeah really Well, I you know slick, we've seen it.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: We have friends. They are web developers. You know that
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: it changed. A lot of it changed. They would create websites.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: Now they would create websites in HTML. They have to
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: learn WordPress, they had to learn Jumla, they had to
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: learn some of these other languages that were out there
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: for websites. They aren't all HML. We're still running an
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: HTML website. We have a WordPress version. We just haven't
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: officially decided to go in all in on it because
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: the SEO on our site has been real good. So again,
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: those are the things that you have to think about.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: But it is. It is putting people, creators, people who
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: would edit that by themselves out of work. But it
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: does it in record time.
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, especially now I've heard some of that, the AI
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: replacements for us so to speak. Oh yeah, trying to
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: create content and deliver it like we would when we're
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: on the air and it boy is it all.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah. There's a company called Odyssey and that's a U. D.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: A C. Y.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: I believe they were one of the first that said
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna do this, that did that with
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: a DJ play in music that's not even there. It's
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: it's a AI created voice that but a lot of
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: people said that they could hear that it wasn't a
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: real person.
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, because it's just like what something's not right?
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: This is it? You could just you just feel like
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: you know it.
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: As Sean would say, the Uncanny Valley. I've seen ads
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: on LinkedIn that I can tell you can tell if
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: you look at them it's AI. It's the mouth. The
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: face looks really good, the mouth is moving, it's a
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: matching the words. But there's just something about it that
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: might be off. That's because you're probably watching AI.
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a social media site that I really did
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: impress me. I mean, I see the value in it.
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: I jumped on that one right away. Was LinkedIn, Yeah,
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: because that's you know, that's like throwing your resume out
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: there and then really really networking with with the professional people.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: But with every website and every bit or every social
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: media you know, services out there, you do have to
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: be careful still, especially in LinkedIn. There's a lot of
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: scamming that goes on on LinkedIn because you you're sending
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: your resume for a job you might not be and
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: you're sending a lot of your info. Same goes with
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: Facebook scams. The bump scam, I think is the most
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: ridiculous thing in the world. If you've encountered the bump scam,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: We've talked about that before, where people put up an
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: ad say this person's missing, and everybody shares it and
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: they tell you please share, please share, and then once
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: you've shared it so many times, it then gets replaced
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: with an AD for real estate. They get paid based
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: on that AD or they'll use it to actually rip
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: people off. So wow, it means you have to you
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: have to do a little and you have to do
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: a little research.
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: I have a confession. Since you brought that up, it
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: just reminded me. So I do do some stuff for
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: the government.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: For government, Yes, a government.
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So I have government access to an account and
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: usually when they're they're doing the IT departments doing their
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: fishing test or even if for real fishing comes through.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Don't you love those tests? Yes?
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: I catch them. I catch them in my personal accounts
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: like Gmail and Yahoo and all this stuff, and I
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: generally I catch them in my government accounts. I'm like this,
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: this is stupid, but people click on them. Well within
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: the this week this week when we came through and
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: it had my my chief of staff's name in it.
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: Really yeah, And and just the way it came through,
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: I just was like, okay, let me open it up.
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: Which was opening up was not the bad part about it.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: The bad part about it was because and because this
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: has happened in the office. Usually I don't share anything
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: funny of personal in my government account at all. I'll
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: send it from my personal account. But we've gotten kind
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: of a little loose at this office, right right, So
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: you know, I wish I could say what it was
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: because I don't remember what it was. But I'm like,
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: all right, let me click on it.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Oh oh yeah, did yeah, I was.
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: I was zero for like five and now I got part.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: Oh man. You know it's it's important though, that everybody knows.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: I see it on next door. I'm on the next
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: door service. I see where people say, you know, I
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: got this thing. I clicked on it. And you know,
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: people need to know do not click on things, whether
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: it be from text or email. If you get an
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: email from you know, you bank at Wells Fargo, you
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: get an email from Wells Fargo, if you have to
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: go to the branch or or call the number that
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: is on the back of your debit card, give that
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: extra layer of caution. Never click you something from the
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: United States Postal Service. I want to deliver a package
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: to you. That's another big scam. Uh. You need to
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: be really really really careful about that because again that's
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: the stuff that can financially hurt you. And again it's
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: it's embarrassing.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: And everyone I claim to be really good at this.
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: I mean I really was, because let me explain it.
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: Whenever I get an email in I have my systems,
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: my email services all set up, so you see, Hey,
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: it's an email from Slick, right, I don't see that.
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: I see it's an email from Slick, and I see
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: the email address, and I wasn't again, wasn't paying attention.
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: Had I looked at the email address, I would have
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: known right off. I wouldn't know right off that it
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: wasn't you know. Plus also I take that extra step
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: of I have all my images turned off. People send
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: me stuff all the time, say did you see it? No,
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: I didn't see it. Why didn't you put something in there?
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: And the text explained to me what it is? I'll
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: get I get newsletters and even my office will send
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: out a newsletter and it's all graphics. You know, it's nice.
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: People love it. It's a great newsletter. It really is.
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: But when it comes to me, if there what is it?
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: Is it all text? Is that what they call it?
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: Whether you put the text for the picture that describes
• 29:53

  Speaker 3: So if somebody's gonna buy it, they'll sell it.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah. It's just I don't think there should be some sense,

  Speaker 1: like the trash compactor scene in Star Wars that should
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: not be available.
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: I don't want to smell trash, you know. I don't
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: want to smell that, you know. I mean I can
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: imagine like from uh, with all the Fast and Furious movies,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: it'll be the smell of burning rubber. Oh yeah, yeah,
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: see Good Fellas with the smell of cheap alcohol and
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: cigar smoke, you know, in the in the casino scenes.
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know, I just don't know. I don't know,
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: are you thinking?
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: No? I was trying to think of some of some
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: other sensory things that could be done. I mean, we've
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: had remember what we did with the movie Earthquake. They
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: put those little shakers.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: In the Yeah. Yeah, they called that surround sound, which
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: is still around our sense around, sense around. I remember
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: the first time I had experienced that was Midway and
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: the World War two movie, the original Midway, not the
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: not the most recent one. There was one that came
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: out with it had him gosh, oh god, I had
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: a huge cast, Robert Bitcham, Burt Lancaster had a huge cast.
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: Eric Estrada one of his first movies, and I remember
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: my dad really wanted to see it and it was
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: one of the movies you took me to the theater
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: to go see, and we're in the lobby and it
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: was a you know, single screen theater and that first
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: the first bomb went off in the in the film,
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: the whole theater shook and I had no idea what
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: was going on. And you know, my dad grew up
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: in London during World War two, and so he went
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: through the bombings, you know, the raids in London and
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: experienced it and said that it pretty much almost caused
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: him to drop everything. The popcorn in soda, the whole
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: bit was that realistic. They did a good job on that.
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: I think the first one. I don't know if you
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: remember this, because you know not, there's there's not many
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: people who do. I think one of the first sensory
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: how do we want to put this, uh, sensory featured
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: movies in the theater. It was a black and white one,
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: if anybody remembers, and there was I'm trying to think
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: of the name of the guy he would did Michael
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: Jackson's thriller No, No, the Voice, The Voice, Oh the Boy.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: Vincent Price, Thank You.
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: It was a Vincent Price movie, right, And I remember this.
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: It was called I'm surprised you don't know this The Tingler.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: Theer was black.
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: And white movie because I heard stories of this. This
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: was like the first sensory movie century featured movie. Basically,
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: let's say it's a spine that comes alive, right, and
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: it's cawling around, right spine a spine.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: Basically, Oh, that's just wonderful.
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So it goes dark in the movie, and the
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: theater also goes dark. But then what happens is I
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: think I don't know if it was some wires or
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: string or whatever it was, because Vincent Price is saying,
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: you know, hey, be careful, this thing is coming around.
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: It could get you, and it don't let it grab you,
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: because it was always grabbing somebody by the back of
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: the neck. Oh man. Yeah, And this thing came up
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: and touched people at the back of the neck. It
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: could have been a little slide, electric shark, could have
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: been a string. I don't know what it was, but
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: he did that in the theater.
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, the Tingler. Yeah, I'm gonna have to look.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to look for this one.
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: There was a movie and I want to say it
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: was I think it might have. Was it Top Secret?
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Do you remember the silly comedy movies. You had like
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: Naked Gun Top Secret by the guys that do those,
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: and they were making fun of that sensory experience in
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: the theaters, and they had like somebody behind rubbing the
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: shoulders of somebody. There's this scene in the movie if
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: somebody's getting his shoulders rubbed, so they'd have somebody back
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: there doing that, and it's really a silly sequence but
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: I can't remember what movie it was, but yeah, they
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: kind of made fun of that. House of Wax was
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: one of the first three D movies, and I always
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: thought this was funny. You're a little fact for us
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: slick in cases ever comes up. Why did the director
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: Andre de taf not be able to see the movie
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: House of Wax and three D?
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: Don't know, I don't know.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: He's thinking he was blind in one eye, and yeah,
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: he could not experience the three D effect for the
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: original House of Wax and something I learned in my
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: days working at movieland Wax Museum. But there you go,
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: smell a vision. If having a big screen isn't enough,
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: now you can have the smells that could be associated
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: with the movie.
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: I just looked it up and the Tingler I was mentioning.
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: It's called person and they did use like a little
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: electric current.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: They actually shot you. Did they stop when somebody died.
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: Here's the line, ladies and gentlemen, please do not panic,
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: but scream. Scream for your lives. That was a part
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: of the movie. If you scream, then you could do
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: this thing would go away, right. The Tingler is loose
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: in this theater.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: The Tingler. Great, So you would think something was that.
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: I know that the most recent ABYSS movie that James
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: Cameron put out, and I guess he's he's gonna do
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: another one, they did something similar with the smell of
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: the sea air and fans that would blow, like in
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: certain scenes, up on people's legs to give them more
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: of it experience, you know, because James Cameron's always been
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: one of those that, well, not Abyss. It's not Abyss,
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: it's the other one. I'm thinking of. What is the
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: What is the other one with the world where the
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: people were dressed up characters and Sigourney Weaver was in it?
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: Uh recently?
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, what is that?
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: I think I know what movie you're talking about. Was
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: they had like a drive in city kind of thing.
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: I didn't even see it. Yeah, yeah, what is the movie?
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: Our listeners? Maybe the listener can help us, go ahead
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: and send us a note that we'll we'll figure out
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: what the movie is. But yeah, I'm I'm blood. But
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: that's what he was doing, trying to bring that experience
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: in for the theaters because something that the homes I
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: guess couldn't offer.
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: Hey, gang, we can't watch them all. We're not Ciskel
• 39:26
  Speaker 3: and Ebert.
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: Okay, that's gonna be bugging me. Now, what is the
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: name of that movie? Somebody drop us, drop us the
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: note tech guys at tech talk radio dot com or
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: hit us on Facebook. Let us know what is that
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: that movie that James Cameron put out a sequel to.
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: He's gonna have another one as well.
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: And somebody else is sitting back going who's Siskel and Ebert?
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: Hey we're not that old. Uh So now you watch
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: the segments on Fox eleven.
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: Right, I do, yes, I do. Uh.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: The guy that I do the show with, you know,
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: Andrew moved to San Antonio and is doing TV out there.
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: Tyler Butler is the guy that I do the segments with. Now,
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: very cool guy. Well, I don't know if you know this,
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: but Tyler is a big flight sim guy. No, he's
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: also very much into the world of trains. And if
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: you get on out to the Gadsden Pacific Museum where
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: they show, they have a model train set up and
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: on Sundays you can get on out there. We've talked
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: about it here on the station. Well, they now have
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: a new game that's coming out September seventeenth, called Train
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: Simworld five all right, and it's available for pre order
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: on PlayStation, Xbox, PC platforms, and it has new routes
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: or routes you can take across the UK, Germany and USA. Right,
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: And I thought to myself, a trained sim how good
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: is it going to look? It is absolutely amazing. The
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: graphics on it are just phenomenal. Trainsimworld dot Com actually
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: a trailer out for this, and I mean, I don't know, slick,
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: if you want to pull that up while we're well,
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: we're talking here train simworld dot Com. They're they're getting
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: the games to look ultra realistic. And I was telling
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: Tyler about this because I know he loves trains and
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: it's something that he's definitely going to be checking out.
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: But they have a trailer for the game that looks
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: very cinematic, and these are this is the actual gameplay
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: that you're going to be able to play in this.
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: And if you like trains, uh, and you want to simulator,
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: you know we've had you know, we've talked before about
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: truck sims, We've talked talked about you know, flight sims,
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: space sims. Train sims actually look pretty good.
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: What do you think it looks into I think it's
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: I richly do excuse me, I really do like trains.
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: I was born and raised, you know, as a child
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: in d C. And my great grandmother used to take
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: me on Amtrak all the time. Oh wow, love Amtrak, right,
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: just love it. But see this is I'm a little
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: I mean, I've kind of gotten used to people like
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: you who like flight sims, right, I mean I don't
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: get it, but I mean, if you know, you're happy
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: to sit there and play okay train, to me, a
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: train sim is kind of gonna be the same thing.
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: You're sitting in the cab and you're kind of just
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: running down the rail and.
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you can you I mean, you could plan
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: the routes, you could plan the sites to see, the
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: stops to make and that's a whole of the idea
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: of a sim You're gonna have different situations as in
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: real life, similar to the sims themselves that became very popular,
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: you know, where you had to create a world or
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: they had not. They had a car simulator and I
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: can't remember what that one was, but that one was
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: actually pretty good as well. So yeah, knew I want
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: to take a look at that again. That's trainsimworld dot Com,
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: and one more before we take a break.
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: Here.
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: If you're a gamer, Atari got a brand new console.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: The seventy eight hundred console remake actually play you'r Atari
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: twenty six hundred cartridges. So if you've got the old
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: Atari cartridges sitting in a box somewhere and you want
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: to play them, you can do that with a new
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: seventy eight hundred console remake.
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: Do you know how much it costs?
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Not sure, it's gonna be out later on this year.
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: I know it'll be cheap from what I've heard, it
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: will be cheaper than an Xbox or a PlayStation. But again,
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: the fact that you could repurpose your old twenty six
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: hundred cartridges could be a lot of fun.
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: I bought a portable Atari player, and then I remembered
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: how bad the graphics were compared to today's, and I'm like, well, okay,
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: this is not that much fun. So I don't think
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: about that before you go ahead and invest. Remember the
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: graphics gonna be a little different. All right, we can
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: take another quick break. We'll come back with more of
• 43:46

  Speaker 1: we don't get enough with two.
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: No, I don't.
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: Would you actually like a triple screen phone? Really?
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah? I've actually I've tried to double screen large. Yeah,
• 45:07
  Speaker 3: and then they work great for me because I can yeah,
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: I can have one thing on one screen and one
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: on the other.
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: Right, all right, so triple screen phone in Huawei again
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: it's spelled very strange. Of course, that'll be Android, that'll
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: be the Android platform. I was thinking, though, is that
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: time going to cut into Apple's big presentation which is
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: coming up this Monday?
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: But no, it was part of the point apparently to.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: Have it kind of follow up and get pressed up
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: for their their because honestly, Apple's going to be, like
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: we were thinking, maybe a new vision. We know the
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: sixteen probably going to be announced officially, so we'll have
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: to see what Apple does. And again that's coming up
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: on Monday, so we'll be talking about that next week
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: in the show.
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: All right, what else I'm using the public beta iOS
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: eighteen point one.
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: You actually went for the beta? You're using it?
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: I have a spare device, so I put it on
• 45:56
  Speaker 3: there and it's okay. I mean, the one thing you
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: were talking about that you really like. I think it
• 46:00
  Speaker 3: was the Was it for the cards or security? It
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: was something. When I say cards, I mean like you know,
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: credit cards or something. Right, you you liked it? It's there,
• 46:09
  Speaker 3: you know, it's okay, all right, I'll have to Yeah.
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: Maybe also mac os sequoia I think is how you
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: pronounce it? iOS eighteen right?
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: And uh, maybe a new m chip I don't know.
• 46:21
  Speaker 3: I haven't heard that. I have not heard about yet.
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: But also what are they calling it? Where's the name
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: Apple Intelligence? Their new AI that's going to wind up
• 46:29
  Speaker 3: in the operating system for iPhones.
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I'll be honest with you. I've never
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: been happy with Siri, have you? I mean, you know,
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: and look, she didn't even wake up when I said
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: her name.
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: But I know a lot of people you use it.
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: I rarely use it, I really do, because it just
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: doesn't pull, doesn't pull what I'm looking for.
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: Out of all of them, Siri, big spee, Uh there,
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: Spidery woke up the Alexa devices, what would you say?
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: Is probably the best out of them for me?
• 46:59
  Speaker 3: Right now? I've got that that Google speaker. I don't
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: remember what the model name of it, but I got
• 47:03
  Speaker 3: the Google Speaker, and it has been really good to
• 47:07
  Speaker 3: me about getting me the information I was looking for.
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: I've had the best results with Google as well.
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, and you know I thought about getting one
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: with a screen, but it the formats I didn't like.
• 47:18
  Speaker 3: I do have that is I think Amazon vire TV fifteen.
• 47:21
  Speaker 3: I got one of those, all right because the screen
• 47:24
  Speaker 3: size and everybody, save your money, it's not as big
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: as I thought it was. I mean it's you still
• 47:28
  Speaker 3: have to be like kind of close to it, and
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: I did you know it's kind of a fail.
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: All right. Now you have another product too, other than
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: that one.
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: Well, we could talk about Android fifteen real quick if
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: you want.
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: All right, Android fifteen do you like?
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: That? Is coming up and it's going to be available
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: for pixels six through nine devices as well as let's say,
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: Samsung Honor and all the other color tech phone. Android
• 47:54
  Speaker 3: open source project is out, so the beta, if you will,
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: is available to developers. Some of the new useful features
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: include partial screen recording. M just see what that is?
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: Part catching up.
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: On this one though, satellite connectivity to send or received
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: messages without cell service. Who did that was.
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: An Apple thing?
• 48:14
  Speaker 3: Yes?
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: Yes, that was.
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: Really nice too. That was cool, uh, predicted back Jef.
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: More in app camera controls. You might like that low
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: light boost and sensitive notifications for two FA codes two
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: factor authentication codes.
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: Nice that. I do think we need better security on devices,
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: better security to protect them the whole bit. So yeah,
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: that would be nice Android for the Android devices. I
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: know the you know I've been I've Justin was telling
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: us about him getting the Pixel nine and I'm thinking,
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: maybe it's time to go Pixel Maybe it is. I've
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: been Apple for a long time, and now I'm beginning
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: to think maybe it's time.
• 48:53
  Speaker 3: The only thing I like about Android is I can
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: put on it. This is just a quick example of everybody.
• 48:57
  Speaker 3: So I canenced all the Facebook app uh huh. But
• 49:01
  Speaker 3: I can also install the Facebook Light app right next
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: to it.

  Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know there are also other beta versions
• 49:09
  Speaker 3: that you can install next on Android. You can install
• 49:11
  Speaker 3: them next to it. What I found in my experience
• 49:14
  Speaker 3: on iPhone on iOS is you know, you get the one.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: App that's it.
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: It's it.

• 50:08
  Speaker 3: I really I haven't invested in Usually when I use headphones.

  Speaker 3: When I invest in, I invest in radio centric headphones
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: for broadcasts, right, which I know are open to We
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: use Sennheisers. Some of the songs have been good to
• 50:20

  Speaker 1: Oh cost yeah, costs audio, Yeah they're good too. The
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: Sennheisers have been always a winner. Uh still series. I
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: still think even you know, maybe you would not use
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: that for broadcasts I willever have. However, you could.
• 50:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, when you got us headphones from a still series
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: and you got us various ones, those had the best microphone.
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: I loved using those for our shows.
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I loved it. It's interesting too, because I've been
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: doing a program with the on the reservations uh Healo
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: River Reservations on podcasting and talking to middle middle school
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: students and some older students about the possibilities of podcasting
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: and how easy it can be, and showing them various
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: technologies that were available. And I've taken the microphones that
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: we have in the studio. I've taken a microphone that
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: i've that fuffy microphone that I bought at the bin store.
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: But the ones that they liked the best were the
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: headphone microphone combo.
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: They didn't want to talk into a microphone. It's a
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: little you know, it can be a little intimidating, but
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: to have a headphone, to have the microphone that pulls
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: out from the headphone, like the new Steel series or
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: even the Logitech devices, they that they actually really liked.
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, depending on the studio configuration that you and I
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: are in at the time, depends on which microphone. I
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: will I like a mic on a boone, the standard
• 51:47
  Speaker 3: broadcast microphone. That is cool. However, if I need to
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: move around to get the buttons on an equipment and
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: you know, still let's say queup a tape. Oh we
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: used to cube tapes and you know, just to push
• 51:58
  Speaker 3: a button on a machine over here or something. I
• 52:00
  Speaker 3: need to be able to walk around that room with
• 52:02
  Speaker 3: the headset on, the headphones on, with a mic on
• 52:05
  Speaker 3: the heads on, the headphones.

  Speaker 3: Show fifteen that's the big portable one that they have,
• 52:58
  Speaker 3: and the Amazon Fire TV Stick four K max. Let
• 53:02
  Speaker 3: me just let's just say that's the the most expensive
• 53:05
  Speaker 3: one they have, the stick. Right, then you have access
• 53:08
  Speaker 3: to what's called the Fire TV Ambient Experience. Now what
• 53:12
  Speaker 3: that means is you can set up on your screen
• 53:15
  Speaker 3: stuff for you to look at, like a weather forecast,
• 53:19
  Speaker 3: a calendar. I'm trying to think of some of the

  Speaker 3: other stuff on here. You get news headlines on there.

  Speaker 3: You can set up notes. I have sticky notes. Can
• 53:28
  Speaker 3: you tell it?

  Speaker 3: I don't remember. If you can do the interface, I'm
• 53:38
  Speaker 3: gonna say no. I mean it might be possible, but
• 53:40
  Speaker 3: I'm going to say off the time, I had no.
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right? And how easy is this to set up?
• 53:46
  Speaker 3: It's it's very easy because you can do it through
• 53:48
  Speaker 3: your Alexa app on your phone. Right, That's how you
• 53:51
  Speaker 3: set it up, and then it you know it just said,
• 53:54
  Speaker 3: Then it sends the information over to the screens, whether
• 53:57
  Speaker 3: it's on your your show ten, you show fifteen, or
• 54:00
  Speaker 3: that's that particular firestick, because I actually set up that
• 54:03
  Speaker 3: fire stick for someone and I was just amazed. I
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: was very jealous, very jealous because they have a large
• 54:09
  Speaker 3: screen TV, and I mean you can see it, you
• 54:12
  Speaker 3: can read it from across the room with these other screens.
• 54:15
  Speaker 3: For me, I have to you know, I have to
• 54:16
  Speaker 3: come up on it or put glasses on it something.
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: But it's great to me if you have it like
• 54:19
