  space

• 2:09
  state
• 2:09
  of

  the
• 2:09
  art.
• 2:10
  It's
• 2:10
  going
• 2:10
  to
• 2:10
  be
• 2:10
  awesome.
• 2:11
  I'm
• 2:11
  excited
• 2:12
  for
• 2:12
  it
• 2:12
  and
• 2:13
  it's
• 2:13
  going
• 2:13
  to
• 2:13
  give
• 2:13
  us
• 2:13
  the
• 2:14
  ability
• 2:14
  to
• 2:14
  do
• 2:14
  a
• 2:14
  lot
• 2:14
  of
• 2:14
  things
• 2:14
  we
• 2:15
  haven't
• 2:15
  been
• 2:15
  able
• 2:15
  to
• 2:16
  do
• 2:16
  in
• 2:16
  the
• 2:16
  past.
• 2:16
  So
• 2:17
  this
• 2:18
  is
• 2:18
  going
• 2:18
  to
• 2:18
  be
• 2:18
  a
• 2:18
  lot
• 2:19
  of
• 2:19
  fun.
• 2:19
  Partnered
• 2:20
  up
• 2:20
  with
• 2:20
  another
• 2:20
  construction
• 2:21
  company
• 2:22
  and
• 2:22
  we
• 2:22
  have
• 2:22
  got
• 2:23
  this
• 2:23
  thing
• 2:23
  good.
• 2:24
  I
• 2:24
  think
• 2:24
  our
• 2:25
  local
• 2:25
  power
• 2:25
  company
• 2:26
  is
• 2:26
  putting
• 2:26
  in
• 2:26
  the
• 2:26
  power
• 2:26
  on
• 2:27
  Friday.
• 2:27
  I'm
• 2:28
  going
• 2:28
  to
• 2:28
  go
• 2:28
  over
• 2:28
  there
• 2:28
  and
• 2:28
  get
• 2:28
  some
• 2:28
  measurements
• 2:29
  and
• 2:29
  start
• 2:29
  putting
• 2:30
  some
• 2:30
  tools
• 2:30
  in
• 2:30
  and
• 2:30
  getting
• 2:30
  ready
• 2:31
  to
• 2:31
  do
• 2:31
  some
• 2:32
  set
• 2:32
  building
• 2:32
  over
• 2:33
  there.
• 2:34
  So
• 2:34
  I'm
• 2:34
  really
• 2:34
  excited
• 2:35
  for
• 2:35
  that.
• 2:35
  We'll
• 2:35
  have
• 2:35
  to
• 2:36
  deploy
• 2:36
  our
• 2:36
  tools
• 2:36
  over
• 2:36
  there
• 2:37
  which
• 2:37
  of
• 2:38
  course
• 2:38
  takes
• 2:38
  a
• 2:38
  little
• 2:38
  bit
• 2:38
  of
• 2:39
  time,
• 2:39
  but
• 2:39
  we'll
• 2:39
  get
• 2:39
  that
• 2:40
  dialed
• 2:40
  in.
• 2:41
  Well
• 2:41
  today
• 2:41
  I
• 2:42
  wanted
• 2:42
  to
• 2:42
  talk
• 2:42
  about
• 2:42
  something
• 2:43
  super
• 2:43
  important
• 2:45
  especially
• 2:46
  and
• 2:46
  this
• 2:46
  is
• 2:46
  a
• 2:46
  big
• 2:46
  one
• 2:47
  with
• 2:47
  our
• 2:48
  air
• 2:48
  conditioning
• 2:49
  out
• 2:49
  there.
• 2:49
  This
• 2:50
  summer
• 2:51
  many
• 2:51
  of
• 2:51
  us
• 2:51
  will
• 2:52
  be
• 2:52
  using
• 2:52
  H
• 2:52
  vac,
• 2:53
  that's
• 2:53
  central
• 2:53
  air
• 2:54
  conditioning
• 2:54
  or
• 2:54
  heat
• 2:54
  pumps
• 2:55
  to
• 2:55
  keep
• 2:56
  our
• 2:56
  homes
• 2:56
  cool.
• 2:57
  And
• 2:57
  with
• 2:58
  all
• 2:58
  the
• 2:58
  changes
• 2:59
  that
• 2:59
  they
• 2:59
  have
• 2:59
  made
• 2:59
  in
• 2:59
  the
• 3:00
  last
• 3:00
  handful
• 3:00
  of
• 3:01
  years,
• 3:01
  your
• 3:02
  best
• 3:02
  interest
• 3:03
  to
• 3:03
  save
• 3:03
  yourself
• 3:04
  a
• 3:04
  ton
• 3:04
  of
• 3:04
  money
• 3:05
  is
• 3:05
  to
• 3:06
  stay
• 3:06
  up
• 3:06
  on
• 3:06
  the
• 3:07
  maintenance
• 3:07
  of
• 3:07
  your
• 3:08
  system.
• 3:08
  Over
• 3:09
  the
• 3:09
  last
• 3:09
  few
• 3:09
  years
• 3:10
  we
• 3:10
  have
• 3:10
  seen
• 3:11
  new
• 3:11
  refrigerants
• 3:12
  come
• 3:12
  in
• 3:12
  the
• 3:12
  market
• 3:12
  that
• 3:12
  are
• 3:13
  mandated
• 3:13
  by
• 3:13
  the
• 3:13
  government.
• 3:14
  We
• 3:15
  have
• 3:15
  old
• 3:15
  refrigerants
• 3:16
  stopping,
• 3:16
  discontinued
• 3:17
  being
• 3:18
  built
• 3:19
  or
• 3:19
  manufactured
• 3:20
  and
• 3:20
  here's
• 3:20
  our
• 3:21
  problem.
• 3:21
  It
• 3:22
  used
• 3:22
  to
• 3:22
  be,
• 3:22
  oh,
• 3:22
  my
• 3:23
  gosh,
• 3:23
  my
• 3:23
  outside
• 3:23
  compressor
• 3:24
  failed
• 3:24
  because
• 3:25
  I
• 3:25
  didn't.
• 3:25
  Didn't
• 3:26
  maintain
• 3:26
  it
• 3:26
  right.
• 3:27
  You
• 3:27
  throw
• 3:28
  a
• 3:28
  few
• 3:28
  thousand
• 3:28
  bucks
• 3:28
  at
• 3:29
  it,
• 3:29
  and
• 3:29
  you're
• 3:29
  good.
• 3:30
  Those
• 3:30
  days
• 3:31
  are
• 3:31
  over
• 3:32
  because
• 3:33
  those
• 3:33
  outdoor
• 3:34
  units
• 3:35
  would
• 3:35
  be
• 3:35
  made
• 3:36
  with
• 3:36
  a
• 3:36
  different
• 3:37
  refrigerant
• 3:37
  that's
• 3:38
  in
• 3:38
  your
• 3:38
  system,
• 3:39
  which
• 3:39
  means
• 3:39
  you
• 3:39
  need
• 3:40
  to
• 3:40
  replace
• 3:40
  the
• 3:40
  entire
• 3:41
  thing.
• 3:42
  So
• 3:42
  there's
• 3:42
  where
• 3:43
  issue
• 3:43
  lies.
• 3:44
  So
• 3:45
  it
• 3:45
  is
• 3:45
  in
• 3:45
  your
• 3:45
  best
• 3:46
  interest
• 3:46
  to
• 3:46
  save
• 3:47
  yourself
• 3:47
  unless
• 3:47
  you
• 3:47
  want
• 3:47
  a
• 3:48
  new
• 3:48
  system
• 3:48
  and
• 3:48
  you're
• 3:48
  like,
• 3:48
  hey,
• 3:48
  I'm
• 3:49
  gonna
• 3:49
  write
• 3:49
  it
• 3:49
  out
• 3:49
  if
• 3:49
  it
• 3:49
  dies.
• 3:50
  Awesome.
• 3:50
  I
• 3:51
  get
• 3:51
  that.
• 3:52
  But
• 3:52
  for
• 3:52
  many
• 3:52
  of
• 3:52
  us
• 3:53
  that
• 3:53
  want,
• 3:53
  don't
• 3:53
  want
• 3:53
  to
• 3:54
  spend
• 3:54
  10,
• 3:55
  15,
• 3:56
  25,
• 3:57
  $30,000
• 3:58
  on
• 3:58
  a
• 3:58
  new
• 3:58
  system.
• 3:59
  And
• 3:59
  yeah,
• 3:59
  they're
• 4:00
  way
• 4:00
  more
• 4:00
  expensive
• 4:01
  because,
• 4:01
  yeah,
• 4:01
  they're
• 4:02
  getting
• 4:02
  more
• 4:02
  complex
• 4:03
  as
• 4:03
  they
• 4:04
  get
• 4:04
  more
• 4:04
  efficient.
• 4:05
  So
• 4:06
  you
• 4:06
  want
• 4:06
  to
• 4:06
  make
• 4:06
  sure
• 4:07
  that
• 4:07
  you
• 4:07
  keep
• 4:07
  that
• 4:08
  thing
• 4:09
  dialed
• 4:09
  in,
• 4:10
  tuned
• 4:10
  up.
• 4:10
  Clean
• 4:11
  the
• 4:12
  outside
• 4:12
  unit
• 4:13
  out
• 4:13
  there.
• 4:13
  Make
• 4:13
  sure
• 4:13
  you've
• 4:14
  got
• 4:14
  your
• 4:15
  shrubbery,
• 4:16
  anything
• 4:17
  feet
• 4:17
  away
• 4:18
  from
• 4:18
  it,
• 4:18
  around
• 4:18
  it.
• 4:19
  Don't
• 4:19
  put
• 4:20
  one
• 4:20
  of
• 4:20
  those
• 4:20
  covers
• 4:20
  around
• 4:21
  it
• 4:21
  to
• 4:21
  hide
• 4:22
  it
• 4:22
  so
• 4:22
  you
• 4:22
  don't
• 4:22
  see
• 4:22
  it.
• 4:23
  That's
• 4:24
  going
• 4:24
  to
• 4:24
  reduce
• 4:24
  airflow.
• 4:25
  Better
• 4:25
  chance
• 4:26
  of
• 4:26
  overheating
• 4:26
  something
• 4:27
  and
• 4:27
  burning
• 4:27
  it
• 4:27
  up
• 4:28
  as
• 4:28
  well
• 4:28
  as
• 4:28
  it
• 4:28
  not
• 4:29
  working
• 4:29
  correctly.
• 4:30
  So
• 4:30
  make
• 4:30
  sure
• 4:31
  that
• 4:32
  any
• 4:32
  shrubbery,
• 4:33
  brush,
• 4:33
  stuff
• 4:34
  like
• 4:34
  that,
• 4:34
  three
• 4:34
  feet
• 4:35
  away,
• 4:36
  get
• 4:36
  as
• 4:36
  much
• 4:36
  airflow
• 4:37
  as
• 4:37
  you
• 4:37
  can.
• 4:38
  And
• 4:38
  when
• 4:38
  was
• 4:38
  the
• 4:38
  last
• 4:39
  time
• 4:39
  you
• 4:39
  cleaned
• 4:39
  that
• 4:39
  thing
• 4:39
  out?
• 4:40
  I
• 4:40
  like
• 4:40
  going
• 4:41
  up
• 4:41
  there
• 4:41
  with
• 4:41
  my
• 4:42
  leaf
• 4:42
  blower,
• 4:43
  blowing
• 4:43
  out
• 4:43
  the
• 4:43
  dust,
• 4:44
  the
• 4:44
  dirt,
• 4:44
  especially
• 4:44
  in
• 4:45
  the
• 4:45
  dry
• 4:45
  part
• 4:45
  of
• 4:45
  the
• 4:45
  season
• 4:46
  for
• 4:46
  us.
• 4:47
  But
• 4:47
  there
• 4:47
  is
• 4:47
  so
• 4:48
  much
• 4:48
  gunk
• 4:48
  that
• 4:48
  gets
• 4:48
  in
• 4:49
  there
• 4:49
  from
• 4:50
  just
• 4:51
  being
• 4:51
  outside
• 4:51
  in
• 4:52
  the
• 4:52
  Pacific
• 4:52
  Northwest.
• 4:53
  It's
• 4:54
  going
• 4:54
  to
• 4:54
  be
• 4:54
  the
• 4:54
  same
• 4:54
  anywhere
• 4:55
  else.
• 4:55
  Those
• 4:56
  coils
• 4:57
  basically
• 4:57
  outside
• 4:58
  out
• 4:58
  there
• 4:58
  where
• 4:59
  that
• 4:59
  heat
• 4:59
  transfer
• 4:59
  is,
• 5:00
  if
• 5:00
  those
• 5:00
  get
• 5:00
  dirty,
• 5:01
  well,
• 5:01
  it's
• 5:01
  insulation
• 5:02
  around
• 5:02
  it,
• 5:03
  so
• 5:03
  you
• 5:03
  want
• 5:03
  that.
• 5:04
  Second
• 5:04
  of
• 5:04
  all,
• 5:05
  make
• 5:05
  sure
• 5:05
  you
• 5:05
  got
• 5:05
  a
• 5:05
  good
• 5:05
  filter
• 5:06
  going.
• 5:06
  And
• 5:07
  then
• 5:07
  third,
• 5:07
  have
• 5:08
  your
• 5:08
  H
• 5:08
  Vac
• 5:09
  tech
• 5:09
  out
• 5:10
  the
• 5:10
  person
• 5:10
  that
• 5:10
  services
• 5:11
  your
• 5:11
  system
• 5:12
  at
• 5:12
  least
• 5:13
  once
• 5:13
  a
• 5:13
  year
• 5:14
  to
• 5:14
  make
• 5:14
  sure
• 5:14
  that's
• 5:15
  looking
• 5:15
  good.
• 5:16
  Now,
• 5:16
  here
• 5:16
  is
• 5:16
  a
• 5:16
  little
• 5:17
  tip.
• 5:17
  In
• 5:17
  most
• 5:18
  cases,
• 5:19
  and
• 5:19
  this
• 5:19
  works
• 5:19
  especially
• 5:20
  with
• 5:20
  the
• 5:20
  company
• 5:21
  I
• 5:21
  work
• 5:21
  with,
• 5:21
  which
• 5:21
  is
• 5:21
  Pyramid
• 5:22
  Heating
• 5:22
  and
• 5:22
  Cooling
• 5:22
  here
• 5:22
  in
• 5:23
  the
• 5:23
  Portland,
• 5:24
  Oregon
• 5:24
  area
• 5:25
  and
• 5:25
  down
• 5:25
  in
• 5:25
  Bend,
• 5:25
  if
• 5:26
  you're
• 5:26
  down
• 5:26
  that
• 5:26
  way,
• 5:27
  these
• 5:27
  guys,
• 5:28
  if
• 5:29
  you
• 5:29
  sign
• 5:29
  up,
• 5:29
  and
• 5:29
  this
• 5:30
  is
• 5:30
  similar
• 5:30
  across
• 5:31
  the
• 5:31
  country,
• 5:32
  you
• 5:32
  sign
• 5:32
  up
• 5:32
  for
• 5:32
  their
• 5:33
  service
• 5:33
  contract,
• 5:33
  it
• 5:34
  gets
• 5:34
  you,
• 5:34
  one,
• 5:35
  a
• 5:35
  reduced
• 5:35
  service
• 5:36
  rate,
• 5:36
  two,
• 5:37
  with
• 5:38
  them
• 5:38
  at
• 5:38
  least,
• 5:39
  and
• 5:39
  most
• 5:40
  others,
• 5:40
  it
• 5:41
  gets
• 5:41
  you
• 5:41
  on
• 5:41
  a
• 5:41
  priority
• 5:42
  service
• 5:42
  plan.
• 5:43
  So
• 5:43
  if
• 5:43
  something
• 5:44
  does
• 5:44
  go
• 5:44
  down
• 5:45
  and
• 5:45
  it's
• 5:45
  a
• 5:46
  hundred
• 5:46
  degrees
• 5:46
  outside
• 5:47
  and
• 5:47
  there's
• 5:47
  a
• 5:48
  hundred
• 5:48
  people
• 5:48
  in
• 5:48
  the
• 5:48
  queue
• 5:49
  that
• 5:49
  need
• 5:49
  their
• 5:50
  H
• 5:50
  vac
• 5:50
  system
• 5:51
  fixed.
• 5:51
  Guess
• 5:52
  what,
• 5:53
  you're
• 5:53
  in
• 5:53
  the
• 5:53
  preferred
• 5:54
  part
• 5:54
  of
• 5:54
  that
• 5:54
  list.
• 5:55
  So
• 5:55
  you're
• 5:55
  VIP
• 5:56
  towards
• 5:56
  the
• 5:56
  front.
• 5:57
  So
• 5:57
  a
• 5:57
  little
• 5:58
  maintenance
• 5:58
  will
• 5:58
  get
• 5:58
  you
• 5:59
  a
• 5:59
  lot
• 5:59
  of
• 5:59
  convenience
• 6:00
  as
• 6:00
  well.
• 6:01
  And
• 6:01
  a
• 6:02
  lot
• 6:02
  of
• 6:02
  them
• 6:02
  coming
• 6:02
  out
• 6:02
  with
• 6:03
  monthly
• 6:03
  plans
• 6:03
  or
• 6:04
  quarterly
• 6:05
  plans
• 6:05
  or
• 6:06
  once
• 6:06
  a
• 6:06
  year
• 6:06
  plans,
• 6:07
  however,
• 6:07
  want
• 6:07
  to
• 6:07
  pay
• 6:07
  for
• 6:07
  it.
• 6:08
  So
• 6:09
  having
• 6:09
  that
• 6:09
  service,
• 6:10
  keeping
• 6:10
  that
• 6:10
  going
• 6:11
  is
• 6:11
  going
• 6:12
  to
• 6:12
  save
• 6:12
  you
• 6:12
  a
• 6:13
  ton
• 6:13
  of
• 6:13
  money
• 6:14
  in
• 6:14
  energy
• 6:15
  efficiency
• 6:15
  with
• 6:15
  your
• 6:15
  power
• 6:16
  bill
• 6:16
  being
• 6:16
  lower
• 6:17
  because
• 6:17
  it's
• 6:17
  working
• 6:17
  at
• 6:17
  its
• 6:17
  best.
• 6:18
  And
• 6:18
  two,
• 6:19
  you're
• 6:19
  not
• 6:19
  gonna
• 6:19
  have
• 6:19
  to
• 6:19
  have
• 6:20
  them
• 6:20
  come
• 6:20
  out
• 6:20
  or
• 6:21
  a
• 6:21
  lot
• 6:21
  less
• 6:21
  of
• 6:21
  a
• 6:21
  chance
• 6:22
  of
• 6:22
  them
• 6:22
  coming
• 6:22
  out,
• 6:23
  having
• 6:23
  to
• 6:23
  do
• 6:23
  major
• 6:24
  work
• 6:24
  on
• 6:24
  it.
• 6:25
  They
• 6:25
  can
• 6:25
  predict
• 6:26
  and
• 6:26
  go,
• 6:26
  wow,
• 6:26
  this
• 6:27
  motor's
• 6:27
  about
• 6:27
  ready
• 6:28
  to
• 6:28
  go.
• 6:28
  Or
• 6:29
  wow,
• 6:29
  this
• 6:29
  capacitor
• 6:30
  is
• 6:30
  ready
• 6:31
  to
• 6:31
  go.
• 6:31
  They
• 6:32
  do
• 6:32
  those
• 6:32
  tests
• 6:33
  and
• 6:33
  you
• 6:33
  can
• 6:33
  catch
• 6:34
  it
• 6:34
  so
• 6:34
  you're
• 6:35
  not
• 6:35
  down.
• 6:36
  This
• 6:36
  is
• 6:36
  especially
• 6:36
  if
• 6:37
  you've
• 6:37
  got
• 6:37
  grandparents
• 6:38
  or
• 6:38
  parents
• 6:39
  that
• 6:39
  are
• 6:39
  elderly,
• 6:40
  aunts
• 6:40
  and
• 6:40
  uncles,
• 6:41
  those
• 6:41
  kind
• 6:41
  of
• 6:41
  people,
• 6:42
  make
• 6:42
  sure
• 6:43
  they're
• 6:43
  ready
• 6:43
  to
• 6:43
  go.
• 6:43
  So
• 6:44
  get
• 6:44
  that
• 6:44
  service
• 6:44
  done.
• 6:45
  It's
• 6:45
  an
• 6:45
  important
• 6:46
  part
• 6:46
  of
• 6:46
  it.
• 6:46
  It's
• 6:46
  changing
• 6:47
  oil
• 6:47
  in
• 6:47
  your
• 6:47
  car.
• 6:48
  This
• 6:48
  will
• 6:48
  save
• 6:49
  you
• 6:49
  some
• 6:49
  serious
• 6:50
  money.
• 6:51
  Now
• 6:52
  let's
• 6:52
  switch
• 6:52
  over
• 6:53
  to
• 6:53
  some
• 6:53
  interesting
• 6:53
  news
• 6:54
  in
• 6:54
  the
• 6:54
  home
• 6:54
  improvement
• 6:55
  world
• 6:55
  here.
• 6:55
  This
• 6:55
  happened
• 6:56
  a
• 6:56
  couple
• 6:56
  days
• 6:57
  ago.
• 6:57
  Decorators,
• 6:59
  which
• 6:59
  is
• 6:59
  a
• 6:59
  leading
• 7:00
  brand
• 7:00
  of
• 7:00
  the
• 7:00
  outdoor
• 7:00
  living
• 7:01
  industry,
• 7:01
  and
• 7:02
  they're
• 7:02
  a
• 7:02
  division
• 7:02
  of
• 7:03
  UFP
• 7:04
  Industries,
• 7:05
  announced
• 7:05
  that
• 7:05
  it
• 7:05
  has
• 7:06
  acquired
• 7:06
  the
• 7:06
  remaining
• 7:07
  operating
• 7:07
  assets
• 7:08
  of
• 7:08
  moisture
• 7:09
  shield
• 7:09
  Decking,
• 7:11
  the
• 7:11
  very
• 7:11
  respected
• 7:12
  brand
• 7:12
  in
• 7:12
  the
• 7:12
  decking
• 7:13
  outdoor
• 7:13
  living
• 7:13
  market.
• 7:14
  Well,
• 7:14
  what's
• 7:14
  interesting
• 7:15
  is
• 7:15
  they
• 7:15
  bought
• 7:16
  them,
• 7:16
  which
• 7:17
  I
• 7:17
  thought
• 7:17
  was
• 7:17
  surprising
• 7:18
  to
• 7:18
  me
• 7:18
  considering
• 7:20
  Old
• 7:20
  Castle
• 7:21
  owns
• 7:21
  them.
• 7:22
  That
• 7:22
  was
• 7:23
  part
• 7:23
  of
• 7:23
  their
• 7:23
  outdoor
• 7:24
  living,
• 7:24
  so
• 7:25
  they
• 7:25
  sold
• 7:25
  them
• 7:25
  to
• 7:26
  decorators.
• 7:27
  I
• 7:27
  think
• 7:27
  that's
• 7:28
  going
• 7:28
  to
• 7:28
  be
• 7:28
  great.
• 7:28
  I
• 7:29
  think
• 7:30
  that's
• 7:30
  going
• 7:30
  to
• 7:30
  get
• 7:30
  them
• 7:30
  into
• 7:31
  a
• 7:31
  lot
• 7:31
  more
• 7:32
  businesses
• 7:33
  across
• 7:33
  the
• 7:33
  country
• 7:34
  through
• 7:35
  decorators.
• 7:35
  So
• 7:36
  I'm
• 7:36
  excited
• 7:36
  for
• 7:36
  them.
• 7:37
  That
• 7:37
  should
• 7:38
  be
• 7:38
  a
• 7:38
  good
• 7:38
  move
• 7:39
  for
• 7:39
  my
• 7:39
  friends
• 7:40
  over
• 7:40
  at
• 7:40
  Moisture
• 7:40
  Shield.
• 7:41
  I
• 7:41
  love
• 7:41
  Moisture
• 7:42
  Shield
• 7:42
  decking.
• 7:42
  It's
• 7:42
  one
• 7:42
  of
• 7:43
  my
• 7:43
  two
• 7:43
  top
• 7:43
  brands
• 7:44
  that
• 7:44
  I
• 7:44
  have
• 7:44
  put
• 7:45
  in
• 7:45
  my
• 7:45
  house.
• 7:46
  What
• 7:46
  I
• 7:46
  like
• 7:47
  about
• 7:47
  this
• 7:47
  decking,
• 7:48
  and
• 7:48
  it's
• 7:48
  amazing.
• 7:48
  They're
• 7:49
  not
• 7:49
  paying
• 7:49
  me
• 7:49
  to
• 7:49
  say
• 7:50
  this.
• 7:50
  They
• 7:50
  never
• 7:50
  do
• 7:51
  that.
• 7:51
  It
• 7:52
  reflects
• 7:52
  heat.
• 7:53
  So
• 7:53
  when
• 7:53
  you
• 7:53
  walk
• 7:53
  outside
• 7:54
  on
• 7:54
  a
• 7:54
  hot
• 7:54
  summer
• 7:55
  day,
• 7:55
  it's
• 7:56
  cool
• 7:56
  like
• 7:56
  a
• 7:57
  wood
• 7:57
  deck
• 7:57
  would
• 7:57
  be,
• 7:57
  not
• 7:58
  like
• 7:58
  the
• 7:58
  other
• 7:59
  competition.
• 8:00
  So
• 8:00
  it's
• 8:01
  safe
• 8:01
  for
• 8:01
  your
• 8:01
  pets
• 8:02
  to
• 8:02
  walk
• 8:02
  out
• 8:02
  on.
• 8:03
  It's
• 8:03
  a
• 8:03
  really
• 8:04
  cool
• 8:05
  thing

  online.com
• 8:26
  I
• 8:27
  am
• 8:27
  doing
• 8:27
  my
• 8:27
  debate
• 8:28
  on
• 8:28
  Internet
• 8:29
  in
• 8:29
  the

• 8:30
  Do

  I

  go
• 8:31
  Starlink?
• 8:32
  Do
• 8:32
  I
• 8:32
  go
• 8:32
  Xfinity?
• 8:34
  Xfinity
• 8:34
  is
• 8:35
  cheaper
• 8:36
  and
• 8:37
  it
• 8:37
  looks
• 8:37
  like
• 8:37
  that
• 8:38
  I
• 8:39
  really
• 8:39
  get
• 8:40
  faster
• 8:40
  service
• 8:42
  as
• 8:42
  far
• 8:42
  as
• 8:42
  upload
• 8:43
  download
• 8:43
  speeds.
• 8:44
  But
• 8:44
  now
• 8:44
  I'm
• 8:44
  debating
• 8:45
  going,
• 8:45
  okay,
• 8:45
  well,
• 8:46
  Xfinity
• 8:47
  is
• 8:47
  cheaper
• 8:47
  right
• 8:48
  now
• 8:48
  in
• 8:48
  my
• 8:48
  area.
• 8:49
  Yeah,
• 8:49
  I'm
• 8:50
  thinking
• 8:50
  about
• 8:50
  how
• 8:50
  I
• 8:50
  want
• 8:50
  to
• 8:50
  go
• 8:51
  about
• 8:51
  that.
• 8:51
  If
• 8:52
  you
• 8:52
  have
• 8:52
  had
• 8:52
  any
• 8:53
  experience
• 8:53
  with
• 8:53
  Starlink,
• 8:54
  I'd
• 8:54
  love
• 8:54
  to
• 8:54
  hear
• 8:54
  it.
• 8:55
  Head
• 8:55
  over
• 8:55
  to
• 8:55
  aroundthehouse
• 8:56
  online.com
• 8:57
  send
• 8:57
  me
• 8:57
  a
• 8:57
  message
• 8:58
  over
• 8:58
  there.
• 8:58
  I'd
• 8:58
  love
• 8:58
  to
• 8:58
  get
• 8:58
  your
• 8:59
  tips
• 8:59
  on
• 8:59
  that.
• 9:00
  Something
• 9:01
  I'm
• 9:01
  interested
• 9:01
  in
• 9:01
  trying.
• 9:01
  I
• 9:02
  think
• 9:02
  that
• 9:02
  having
• 9:03
  that
• 9:03
  and
• 9:03
  where
• 9:03
  I
• 9:03
  could
• 9:03
  throw
• 9:04
  that
• 9:04
  and
• 9:04
  pull
• 9:05
  it
• 9:05
  down
• 9:05
  and
• 9:05
  take
• 9:05
  it
• 9:05
  over
• 9:05
  to
• 9:06
  my
• 9:06
  rv.
• 9:07
  If
• 9:07
  I
• 9:07
  go
• 9:07
  camping
• 9:08
  could
• 9:08
  be
• 9:08
  interesting.
• 9:09
  But
• 9:10
  then
• 9:10
  I'm
• 9:10
  camping
• 9:10
  without
• 9:10
  my
• 9:11
  security
• 9:11
  system,
• 9:11
  so
• 9:12
  that
• 9:12
  wouldn't
• 9:12
  work
• 9:12
  well
• 9:13
  on
• 9:13
  the
• 9:13
  studio.
• 9:13
  But
• 9:13
  you
• 9:14
  see
• 9:14
  where
• 9:14
  I'm
• 9:14
  going
• 9:14
  with
• 9:14
  that.
• 9:15
  I
• 9:15
  like
• 9:15
  the
• 9:15
  portability
• 9:16
  of
• 9:16
  that.
• 9:17
  It's
• 9:17
  something
• 9:17
  pretty
• 9:17
  interesting.
• 10:19
  I'd
• 10:20
  love
• 10:20
  to
• 10:20
  hear
• 10:20
  your
• 10:20
  comments
• 10:21
  on
• 10:21
  that.
• 10:22
  You
• 10:22
  can
• 10:22
  do
• 10:23
  that
• 10:23
  around
• 10:23
  the
• 10:23
  house
• 10:23
  online.com
• 10:25
  well,
• 10:25
  we've
• 10:25
  got

  coming

  on
• 10:30
  and
• 10:31
  it's.
• 10:31
  I'm
• 10:32
  really
• 10:32
  excited.
• 10:32
  We
• 10:32

• 10:33
  a
• 10:33
  great
• 10:33
  interview
• 10:33
  coming
• 10:34
  up
• 10:34
  here
• 10:34
  this
• 10:35
  next
• 10:35
  week
• 10:36
  about
• 10:36
  a
• 10:36
  new
• 10:36
  TV
• 10:37
  show
• 10:37
  that
• 10:37
  is
• 10:37
  absolutely
• 10:38
  amazing.
• 10:38
  I
• 10:38
  was
• 10:39
  watching
• 10:39
  a
• 10:39
  little
• 10:39
  bit
• 10:39
  of
• 10:39
  it
• 10:39
  and
• 10:40
  it
• 10:40
  is
• 10:40
  really
• 10:40
  good.
• 10:41
  Super

  see
• 10:42
  what's
• 10:42
  happening
• 10:42
  out
• 10:42
  there.
• 10:43
  And
• 10:44
  then
• 10:44
  here's
• 10:44
  another
• 10:44
  tip
• 10:45
  too,
• 10:45
  as
• 10:45
  you're
• 10:45
  out
• 10:46
  working
• 10:46
  on
• 10:47
  things
• 10:47
  and
• 10:47
  you're
• 10:47
  trying
• 10:48
  to
• 10:48
  save
• 10:48
  some
• 10:48
  money
• 10:49
  because
• 10:49
  everything
• 10:50
  is
• 10:50
  expensive
• 10:51
  as
• 10:51
  of
• 10:51
  today
• 10:51
  at
• 10:52
  least.
• 10:52
  Tom,
• 10:52
  it
• 10:53
  looks
• 10:53
  like
• 10:53
  we
• 10:53
  might
• 10:54
  have
• 10:55
  that.
• 10:55
  The
• 10:56
  war
• 10:57
  stuff
• 10:57
  over
• 10:57
  there
• 10:57
  in
• 10:57
  the
• 10:57
  Middle
• 10:58
  east
• 10:58
  looks
• 10:58
  like
• 10:58
  that
• 10:58
  could
• 10:58
  be
• 10:59
  chilling
• 10:59
  down
• 10:59
  a
• 11:00
  little
• 11:00
  bit,
• 11:00
  which
• 11:00
  I'm
• 11:00
  excited
• 11:01
  about.
• 11:01
  But
• 11:02
  what
• 11:02
  I'm
• 11:03
  thinking
• 11:03
  about
• 11:03
  here
• 11:04
  is,
• 11:04
  okay,
• 11:04
  oil
• 11:04
  prices
• 11:05
  going
• 11:05
  back
• 11:05
  down
• 11:06
  looks
• 11:06
  like
• 11:06
  they
• 11:06
  are
• 11:06
  so
• 11:07
  far.
• 11:08
  If
• 11:08
  that
• 11:08
  holds,
• 11:09
  then
• 11:09
  we're
• 11:09
  going
• 11:09
  to
• 11:09
  see
• 11:10
  materials
• 11:10
  and
• 11:10
  stuff
• 11:10
  going
• 11:11
  back
• 11:11
  down
• 11:11
  on
• 11:11
  price.
• 11:12
  These
• 11:12
  new
• 11:13
  surcharges
• 11:13
  that
• 11:13
  we're
• 11:14

  see
• 11:15

• 11:15
  going
• 11:15
  to
• 11:15

• 11:16
  a
• 11:16
  little
• 11:16
  more
• 11:16
  interesting.
• 11:17
  So
• 11:17
  I'm
• 11:17
  kind
• 11:17
  of
• 11:17
  excited
• 11:18
  to
• 11:18

• 11:18
  what
• 11:18
  happens
• 11:18
  out
• 11:19
  there
• 11:19
  because
• 11:20
  my
• 11:20
  truck
• 11:21
  is
• 11:21
  not
• 11:21
  easy

  gas
• 11:22
  like
• 11:22
  you
• 11:23
  guys.
• 11:23
  And
• 11:23
  of
• 11:23
  course
• 11:24
  I
• 11:24
  live
• 11:24
  in
• 11:25
  one
• 11:25
  of
• 11:25
  the
• 11:25
  most
• 11:25
  expensive
• 11:26
  states
• 11:26
  when
• 11:26
  it
• 11:26
  comes
• 11:26
  to
• 11:27
  gasoline.
• 11:28
  Still
• 11:28
  not.
• 11:29
  Still
• 11:29
  not
• 11:29
  Washington
• 11:30
  State,
• 11:30
  which
• 11:30
  I'm
• 11:30
  happy
• 11:30
  with.
• 11:31
  But
• 11:31
  you
• 11:31
  know
• 11:31
  how
• 11:31
  that
• 11:31
  goes.
• 11:32
  Saving
• 11:32
  money
• 11:32
  out
• 11:33
  there.
• 11:33
  I'm
• 11:33
  liking
• 11:33
  that.
• 11:34
  I
• 11:34
  have
• 11:34
  been
• 11:34
  buying
• 11:35
  a
• 11:35
  lot
• 11:35
  of
• 11:35
  products
• 11:36
  on
• 11:37
  Facebook
• 11:37
  Marketplace
• 11:38
  that
• 11:38
  I
• 11:38
  need.
• 11:38
  Instead
• 11:39
  of
• 11:39
  going
• 11:39
  into
• 11:39
  the
• 11:39
  store
• 11:40
  and
• 11:40
  I
• 11:40
  see
• 11:40
  somebody's
• 11:40
  got
• 11:41

  there,
• 11:42
  I've
• 11:42
  been
• 11:42
  saving
• 11:43
  some
• 11:43
  money
• 11:43
  that
• 11:44
  way,
• 11:44
  which
• 11:44
  is
• 11:44
  good.
• 11:44
  But
• 11:45
  I
• 11:45
  don't
• 11:46
  know
• 11:46
  about
• 11:46
  you.
• 11:46
  Have
• 11:46
  you

  the

  flaky
• 11:50
  people
• 11:51
  that
• 11:51
  don't
• 11:51
  respond
• 11:52
  back
• 11:52
  or

  don't

  get
• 11:53
  a
• 11:53
  hold
• 11:53
  of

  up
• 11:54
  if
• 11:55
  you're
• 11:55
  selling

  something?
• 11:56
  So

  that's

  where

  it
