  Speaker 4: No? I finally put lights on the tree.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: I was so inspired by Justin doing the lights. I
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: thought that's it this year, I'm gonna do lights, and I.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Just never did it.
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: I was told I can't climb up on the ladder
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: because Laria fears that she'll come home and I'll be
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: on the ground.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Well, that's why I hired somebody to do it. I
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: don't get on ladders either.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Yours ended up coming up pretty good and you don't
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: have to take them down.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: No. I love them the end Brighton Eternity lights. I
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: got them from Costco that it was like one hundred
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: and sixty bucks for one hundred lights and I got
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: two strings, so two hundreds, you know, a little over
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: three hundred and then I paid. It's about three hundred
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: dollars four hundred dollars.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Did it take a lot to have the long for
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: him to install them?
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: No, the dude was like super super fast. I mean
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: he he said, he does this like almost every day,
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: you know. So, I mean he's a painter by trade,
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: so he's already already always up on ladders. I think
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: the whole thing took him like two and a half hours.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Amazing, Wow to do all of them. Wow. Now, and Sean,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: you got the lights up on the street. What kind
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: did you do? The flashing lights?
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: And yeah, so.
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: We just have you know, it's like a thirty foot
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: string of led you know, the little narrow LEDs, and
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: then a shorter string of the c nine bulbs which
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: are the bigger ones. And uh, I spent a little
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: bit of times a day. I had to replace a
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: couple of bulbs, and then I had to just bypass
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: a couple because they didn't have any new ones. And
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: so I just plist the wires together and made it work.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Now do you have do you have cats?
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: No? No, I have two toddlers.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's even worse.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I have the one cat, but he's too old.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: He doesn't really care.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: He won't climb in the tree and you know the stuff.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: Now, he just looks at it and goes. So I'm going
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: back to bed.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: It happens to us all. Will we get to that
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: certain age? Oh, there is a lot to talk about
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: when it comes to tech, of course. One of the
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: biggest stories this week has been the drones over the
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: East Coast, and it just it doesn't stop. Is this
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: really something? I keep thinking that'll come on, guys, it's
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: not drones.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: Okay, So weird going on.
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: There is so much misinformation about this story out there.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: It's out of control. If anybody, if anybody with a brain,
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: goes and looks at some of these pictures, you can
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: clearly tell their helicopters some of them, no, not not
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: all of them. Right, there are drones flying around a Jersey.
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: There a pictures. There are also a picture. There are people.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: Let me finish, there are clear identifiable pictures with tail
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: numbers that have been public record identified as helliccupt that
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: people are claiming as drones. So I'm just putting it
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: out there that people are taking pictures with their phones
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: zoomed way in. Oh. Look it's a drone. It's got
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: red and green lights. Now it's a helicopter. It's there. Yes,
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: there are drones flying around a Jersey. People are concerned
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: because they're out at all times of the day and
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: at night. But some people are claiming that there there's
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: five thousand reports a day or something they're getting now
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: about drones they're coming in.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: I've been cautious about wanting to fly my drone even
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: you know, at the radio station to take take a
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: look at the property because if one of the neighbors
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: might either shoot it down or they're gonna you know,
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: complain and next day and I have to deal with
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: some kind of agency coming to the station wondering what's
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: going on.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: So much specification, there's there's theories about they're they're scanning
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: for missing radioactive material there, it's there, it's China, it's
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: you know, there's a company that is in the New
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: York Bay area that is using ammonia as they're renewed
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: or not renewable, but an alternative fuel for drones that's
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: been flying them and they've confiscated drones from them. So
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: there's all these articles and it's nobody knows what's going on.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: So there are mysterious drones happening, right, but you can't
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: just everybody's in a panic saying, oh my god, it's China.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: Oh my god, they're they're churching for radioactive material.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: Like justin now, I know you were, you were kind
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: of going down this way, and I'm thinking the size
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: of the drugs. We're not talking about DGI many threes
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: or many fours or our vadas. We're talking about, from
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: what I understand, the full drone. There's a difference between
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: the military drones and the consumer drones that we could
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: go by.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're definitely not consumer drones. But I just I'm sorry,
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: but I want to chime in here with what Sean
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: was mentioning about misinformation. I would like to get an
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: explanation on some things I've been following along with this
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: story a lot as well. One, why were there let's
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: just call them UFOs because we don't know what they
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: are right now, Okay, Why were there UFOs flying over
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: the US capital, the most restricted airspace in the world,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: and the military was doing nothing about it? Two? Why
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: are there videos of these floating orbs not a drone?
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: An orb And maybe it's because of the focus, but
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: why is it that an orb is floating and then
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: you see a drone another drone come up to it
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: and then just get knocked out of the sky and
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: falls down to the ground. Three. Why why are these
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: orbs these orbs that people are filming? Why does that
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: show is as what looks like a like an orb
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: that is emitting light and then all of a sudden,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: as it gets a little bit closer, it switches and
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: then it turns into what looks like a drone with
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: its actual flashing lights. The camera never moves, the camera
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: never shakes. The camera's following these things, these orbs. As
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: soon as it gets a little bit closer, it just
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: immediately not like a focus thing. It immediately changes into
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: red and green flashing.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Where where did you see this stuff? This is all over.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Reddit, dude. There's there's so much going on in Reddit
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: right now that I've been following on this, especially with
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: these UFOs flying over the Capitol Building, the US Capitol Building.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: They were people were showing really good quality videos of
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: this and they were like these orbs flying right above
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: the US Capital and then they would show They're like no, no,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: this is not this is not a helicopter because look
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: over here, and he would pan over and say that's
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: a helicopter, and you could see the helicopter moving. These
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: things were literally floating mid air, not moving right over
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: the Capitol Building and the big Well. They can't tell
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: because they're they're too far away. But these things were
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: floating orbs. They were not flashing lights. They were just
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: floating orbs. And then on top of that, like I said,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: with with the ones that are were getting up close,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: you would see videos of other drones approaching these orbs
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden, you see the orb.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: You see the other drone just fall out of the sky.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Well, okay, so couldn't an or I'll call it an
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: orb be a reflection of light on a.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Material that is hitting up.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: I mean anything true.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: I've looked at my gas.
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: We're going back to swamp gas. I mean, but there
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: are some I'm not like, I feel like Justin is
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: saying like I'm not claiming there's drones, Like, I'm not
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: saying that right, there are clearly there are things that
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: are unexplained UFOs. There are clearly identifiable pictures that people
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: are saying this is a drone. Reddit is all over it.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: Read it is readit, identifying.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: It as with public available information. That there's tail numbers
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: for helicopters for some of these, not all of.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Them, some of these. And and the fact the biggest thing,
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: the biggest one, the biggest red flag that I can
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: see so far, is the one that is these things
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: flying about the US Capitol. This is the most restrictive
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: airspace in the world. Well, they have nothing.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: They have a battery, they have area, a battery on
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: top of the Capitol building.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, this is not nothing attached to the
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: Capitol around the Capitol.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: They have a battery and armament battery.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: Then they're not doing anything about it. And then and
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: and then there was that one that they found they
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: had the report of the one that went down, and
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: I think it was in New jerseystenntyl Vania. Yes, And
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: then the immediately the FBI stepped into the local law
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: enforcement and gave the local LA enforcement instructions, do not
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: approach this, get a bomb squad, and your radios may
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: not work in the vicinity of this down this down
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: aircraft or whatever it is. Why would the FBI immediately
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: jump in and tell them, do not approach this thing
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: and get a swat team and a bomb squad ready,
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: like why just in case, I mean, let's face it,
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: and they don't know, they're not saying anything. A drone
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: could be loaded with material that could be used in warfare, sure,
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: but then why would your radios not work near it?
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Radiation?
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Okay? Then fine? If it even is truly from this
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: earth and whatever it is, then why what is going on?
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Why is the military not say anything?
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: The first time I heard of this, and you know,
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: it started a couple of stories people talking about it,
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: and I will I will allude to the fact that
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: that right away, I thought, uh, it's Elon because number one,
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: the the you know, we know that starlink goes up
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: satellites dispersed and usually they go in a line. There
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: could be a row a row of lights, and people
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: may mistake that for some kind of a drone.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Situation, right, And that's what I thought.
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: And then I are this like wicked story about drones
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: flying over a navy base, a naval base, you know,
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: off the east coast, and they thought that maybe they
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: were controlled by you know, foreign government, and you know,
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: I don't know the only thing I could think of
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: is this is gonna affect the fact that we're set
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: and I are not gonna be able to fly our
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: drones anymore. Either that or you know they're gonna they're
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: gonna request tail numbers on everything.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Well that's another thing too, is I was recently thinking
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: about this. I was like, Wow, I can't even go
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: and fly my drone because I might get shot down. Yeah,
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: because everybody's on everybody's on high edge right now, so
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: I don't.
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's it's like I said, it's nobody knows
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: what's going on. There's a lot of weird videos coming
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: in in the age of technology where things are I'm
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: not trying to be the conspiracy theorist here's sake, it's
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: all faked again. Airplanes, helicopters, legally used drones flying in
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: some spaces. Right, you have to nod over actor in
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: it's Kham's razor.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Right, It's like it's aliens, bro, that's the orbs. Oh yeah,
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: I would love to believe it would be aliens. I
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: would love to believe it's aliens that are actually trying
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: to communicate with us and saying, hey, we're here, we
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: want to talk to you. We can't figure out how
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: to do it. You know, people, Those are some of
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: the conspiracy theories on Reddit. I'll be honest. I read
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: about these things saying that, oh, yeah, they're orbs, but
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: once people look at them, they they shape shift into
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: something that we're familiar with, and that would be a
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: drone with the flashing lights with the FAA approved lighting patterns.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, Okay, that's a little bit weird. But
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: then but watching the video of the ORB floating, a
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: drone approaching and then just immediately dropping out of the
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: sky and the ORB didn't even get phased, I was.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: Like, I want to believe, you know, to a certain
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: extent of certain things. However, I've been not in my
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: old age and in my knowledge of what AI can produce,
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: I know that it could be faked. And I'm like,
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: like I said, I don't want to be the one
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: that is it. No, it's not real, it's not real.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: Then something happens. You remember Independence Day, Like I'm kind
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: of thinking, all right, justin you would have been the
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: guy on the roof with the sign holding it up.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Let's make it welcome.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, then you get blown away. But I you know,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: I just kind of wonder, you know, maybe we're going
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: too fast. Everything's happening so quick. That is it?
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: Really?
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: Is this situation? Really?
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: I would love to get our listeners thoughts too. You
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: can feel free to drop his line. We may share
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: it again. Tech guys at tech talk Radio.
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: Get weird if we're if we're gonna take you listener
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: questions about UFOs.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this is this.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Is weird Bell Coast to Coast, baby, this.
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: Is this is the Aliens show. This is it?
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well you know that that exactly what it could be.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Belle was still live. God, he would have a field
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: day with this. There's a lot of unexplained things going on.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: Even today. I was literally watching News Nation just for
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: a little bit during the day just to kind of
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: see what was going on. And they were holding a
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: press conference with a two star general at the Pentagon
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: and they were asking questions and this guy was dodging
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: things left and right right, and it was just so odd,
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: like the way that this person was just kind of
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: shifting around and looking uncomfortable. It's like you know something,
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: you know something is going on, but you won't tell us.
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: Well, are here's something to think about and Sean, you
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: may be able to feel this one in a drone,
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: I know that you know, my Dji can fly for
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: maybe I think what forty five minutes on a charge.
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: Can some of these drones that are used for broadcasts,
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: like the one that they believe they found today. I
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: mean that's a massive drone. They're very expensive. We're talking
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: twenty or thirty thousand dollars. Can those fly extended range?
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: The larger the row, the larger the payload, Right, So
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: the larger bat, larger of a battery you can put in,
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: the larger controls, so you can put in and yeah,
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: you could. Anybody could make a drone that's going to
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: be up in the air for an hour to two
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: hours at a time.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: It's and some of these that they're they're claiming to
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: have have identified or have been looking at, are a
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: five foot wingspan. Like nobody knows what's going on is
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: there's amateur video everywhere about this. I'm not as impressed
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: with the quality of the amateur video as I hope
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: to be. I feel like we're going back to the
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: Sasquatch days and the you know, the the UFO settings
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: where it's like you're not really sure what you're looking at,
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: a blow around the lens or whatever. But some of
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: it is interesting. It's interesting to look at, it's interesting
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: to see it.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: So think is just fake.
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: I don't think it's alf fake. I think there are
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: actually drones flying. There are millions million, There are millions
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: in the US.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Millions are required to have now the FAA's rules that
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: all drones are require to have that they radio broadcast
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: their identification. Why is nobody able to detect any of
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: these things? And nothing is showing up on any of
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: these apps that can scan for this stuff if.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: They're flying over the Capitol justin they don't want to
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: get fied.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: No, no, I mean anywhere anywhere. Nobody is able to
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: find any information about any drones in the sky at
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: any given time.
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: But yeah, okay, if I go and buy a consumer drone,
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: it's gonna get locked out GEO fenced because it's you know,
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: it knows where I'm at. Well, it doesn't take a
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: genius to go build their own drone without a GPS
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: GEO fence, Like you could build it without a without
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: a GPS part of it.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: So you're talking about building a drone the size of
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: an suv as a hobby.
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: There are companies that build them for agriculture, there are
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: companies that build them for for for gis, and.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: Thousands of those thousands of those that they're just gonna
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: randomly put up into the sky in front of the
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: Capitol building.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: Hey, there is a guy that set a world record
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: this year for attaching clothes pins to his face one
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: hundred and sixty six. If you if you build it,
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: they will be there. So you know, maybe that this
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: is the whole thing, you know, is somebody build a
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: big old drone and make people think it's ufosh, you know, I.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Mean, I get I get one, I get one, but
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: not thousands, and and they're not happening in just over
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: one area. They're happening in the UK, They're happening in
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: the Netherlands, They're happening in Australia, they're happening in Japan.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: They're happening on the East coast, West Coast of America.
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: I mean, they're happening all over these places. What the
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: hell is going on? Right?
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: Kind of wonder could this change legislation though? For those
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: of us that want to have a drone.
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: Percent this is gonna that there are several high ranking
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: officials that are already pointing fingers at China. There are
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: several people's pointing fingers at they are China is usually
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: underscand for radio active material that has gone missing. Of
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: course it is right.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Well, they did say there was radioactive material the what
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: was it the governor, governor or mayor of New Jersey,
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: mayor of somewhere in New Jersey or governor said that
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: there were was was radioactive material that went missing on
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: December second of this year. But people are like, Okay,
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: that doesn't explain it because these drones started showing up
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: on November eighteenth, so so so that doesn't make any sense.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: Oh, that's kind of trippy. I didn't know about that.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: How do you lose radioactive stuff?
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: I remember it's the guys that were delivering it for
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: Doc Brown and the the Larean.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: The Libyans, right, the Libyans, yep, yep. And I do
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: mean that in the sense of the actual movie. Okay,
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: I'm not talking about I'm not trying to be you
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: know whatever, the movie Back to the Future. The Libyans
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: member the one that went down that that first report
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: of the one that went down in New Jersey. The people,
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: now again this is all here says, but yeah, they
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: were saying that when the one went down, ten other
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: drones showed up right around it, like they all kind
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: of came together and were like floating around the area
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: that the one went down. And it's like, okay, there's
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: no video proof of that, so I can't yeah, I
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: can't say that. But people were saying this, and I
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: was like, Okay, that would be interesting because why why
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: would that happen. People were saying, well, it could have
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: been a part of a mesh network. You know, these
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: all these drones could be part of a mesh network,
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: and the one that went down, all the other ones
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: lost their connection to the mesh so they all had
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: to go back to the last known location of where
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: that drone went down to re establish communication with the
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Mesh network. And I'm like, okay, that makes sense.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Here's an honest question.
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: And you mentioned reddit as being a a site where
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: you may be able to find some of this stuff.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: Why isn't the media sharing this then?
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: If that's the media first off, doesn't know anything.
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, why is it that Reddit is is
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: such the you know trailblazer on this and why not
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: Fox News or New.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: Max or Newsmax or CBS News Nation or whatever. Yeah,
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: I mean some of them are talking a little bit
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: about it, but the part of it is they don't
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: have credible information to go off of. Now. Mind you,
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: the media, the mainstream media is not very credible, and
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: we've all been aware of that for the past few years.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: The mainstream media is not very credible, but they still
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: try to hold up to a little bit of a standard.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: And it's like, look, we're not just going to go
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: off of what people on Reddit say. Okay, they need
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: a little bit more than that. So I think that's
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: why the mainstream media is not talking about this now. Also,
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: flip the coin reddit is very much of a conspiracy
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: theory platform too, like certain subreddits. Y. Yeah, so you
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: got to take everything with a grain of salt. But
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: the fact that it has gotten to the point now
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: where mainstream media is asking questions saying what is this
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: and they're asking the government what is going on? And
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: the Government's like, I don't know what you're talking about,
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Like that's a little weird.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: Let me ask you.
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: With the technology we have today, Sean, maybe you know
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: this one. I have a small remote controlled spitfire you
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: know from World War Two. It's very small and I
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: can't fly it worth anything. Could somebody fit assessed no
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: One or a piper cub because I've heard this has
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: been described as a piper cub. Could they fit this
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: with automation technology to fly like a drone but it
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: being an actual aircraft, which of course then would give
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: you more flight time and more range.
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: You got to think how much of autopilot stuff there
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: is now? I mean, anybody with the means could do it.
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: Anybody with the Yeah, somebody could do that. But to
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: Justin's defense about this, right, like the videos that you're seeing,
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: you can't fly a Cessna like that. You can't fly
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: a pepper club like that right now, these videos you're
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: seeing the.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: Way, yeah there.
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: So this is either one ginormous elaborate prank that somebody's pulling.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm hoping it is, yeah, or.
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: The government's not say anything because something serious.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: Is going on, right Yeah, I mean I would I said,
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: you know it's aliens.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh man, all right, well we'll have to kind
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: of keep an eye on that one for sure. Either way,
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: we would love to get your thoughts on this. Feel
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: free to drop us a line tech guys at tech
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: talk radio dot com.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: We're gonna take a quick break. We come back.
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: A decision was made justin we'll share us the information
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: about that coming up.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: I'm Andy Taylor, I'm Scully, and I'm Moulder and you
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: can find us on x files dot com. All I'm sorry,
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: no opt wunk show tech talk radio dot com.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: We were back and now back to tech talk radio.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: So we talked was it last week, week before or
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: something like that. I was talking about the issues with
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: the car. Oh yeah, yeah, Well we went ahead and
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: pulled the trigger.
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: Oh all right, so we know that you have a
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: Tesla and you had a Ford Explorer, and you had
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: the Tesla for quite a while and he suddenly what now.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: Why did you end up getting a new one?
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: What was the deal? Well, it was it was so yeah,
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: it was the the Tesla we've had for over a
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: little bit over a year and where and we kept
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: that it was the Explore And it's a twenty seventeen
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: four Explorer. Really nice, I mean it's really good looking.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: I mean everything looks really nice and neat and new.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: But it's the head unit, the radio head unit, was
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: starting to show some issues where it would just never
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: keep all the settings, so every single time I would
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: get into the vehicle, it would ask me to do
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: the whole setup process again. And talking to some people,
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: it's like, Yo, this is a failing head unit and
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: it's going to be about one thousand dollars. Now, if
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: it was just simply a radio, it wouldn't be a
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: big deal. But this thing controls the climate, it controls
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: the GPS, it controls all the other settings, I mean everything,
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: So it's not just a radio. And I already knew
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: that I was only going to keep the car for
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: maybe another year or so, so I decided, well, maybe
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: it's now time to get rid of the car before
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: the head unit completely fails. So we went ahead and
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: did it. What I did was we went and bought
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: a twenty twenty five Toyota Camry x L eight, which
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: is not quite the top of the line but like
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: one below the top of the line for the Toyota cameras,
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: and then we traded in the Explorer towards that. And
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: this is a hybrid vehicle, right, It is a hybrid,
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: not a plug in hybrid, but it is a standard
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: hybrid so I've been driving. I've been driving the Toyota
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: Camera for the last few days.
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: I'm just trying to get myself familiar with the vehicle
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: before I hand it over to Mysa, because Mysa will
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: be the primary driver of the camera and I will
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: take over the Tesla as my primary vehicle. Now. The
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: reason behind that is because I told her, I said
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: I wanted to get another Tesla, and she's like, no,
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: we're gonna have one gas car one electric, and I said, well,
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: I want the electric because I really like the Tesla.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: So she's like, fine, you take the Tesla and I
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: get a new car. And I was like, okay, So,
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: but I'm really liking this Camray. I mean it is
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: it is so smooth. The drive on it is just
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: so just I can't there's no other word to describe.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: It is so smooth, right all right.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: The suspension, the handling, the acceleration, the features on it.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, everything about this car is just so awesome.
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: One of the things justin though, like and I have
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: looked at cars because Gloria has been driving the same
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: one since two thousand and one, and you know, one
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: of the things that I thought about mine is twenty
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: eleven is the package, the entertainment. And I know that
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: seems silly. Most people say, no, you gotta look at
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: your drive, you gotta look at the range, you gotta
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: look at all these other factors. But honestly, let's face it,
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: what do you have on your dashboard is gonna make
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: that trip a little more enjoyable.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: So absolutely, yeah. I mean when I was looking at
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: these things, you know, first off, you know, I was
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: asking her what kind of car do you want? Because
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: we had all the options in the world, and she's like, well,
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: I don't want an suv, but I want all wheel
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: drive and I want a big screen. And I'm like, okay,
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: well that narrows you down to either a Toyota Camera
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: or a Volvo. And she's like, vol those nice, but
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: it's way too expensive. So you know, it kind of
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: basically ended up the Toide Camera. The Toide Camera comes
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: with a really nice entertainment package. The Xle comes with
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: a twelve point three inch screen, touch screen infotainment system.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: It's got you know, HD radio, it's got serious XM,
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: it has h Android Auto, Apple car Play, it's got
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: a wireless both of them. Actually, it's got the h
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: you know, backup cameras. Actually it's got it's got full
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: surrounding cameras, which is really cool. They they I think
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: Toyota actually took a little bit of inspiration from Tesla
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: because they have full surround cameras that watch around the
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: entire vehicle. They have lane departure warning, not not warning,
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: but assistance, so when you're in cruise control mode, it
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: will actually keep you in the lane no matter what.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: So it's just like the Tesla does. Wow, You've got
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: parking cameras that will You've got cameras down below the
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: bumper to watch down below. It makes sure you're not
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: hitting anything and if you if you happen to be
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: pulling close to something, that camera will switch and show
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: you what is close to you at that moment. So,
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's just it's just so cool. And it's
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: got a panoramic moon roof that that is a full panoramic.
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: The entire top of the car is a moon roof
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: that actually retracks opens up.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: Now, does it have in car navigation or is it
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: gonna be through your Android or.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: It does have in car navigation. It's got SOS ability
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: to you know, like basically nine to one one for
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: collision automatic, uh that kind of stuff. It's got remote start.
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: It has an app where you can keep track of
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: the location, you can start it remotely, you can flash
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: your lights. It does not have a built in century
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: mode like the Tesla where it records you know, video,
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: but you know, it does have cameras all the way around.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: But yeah, it just doesn't record the video. But other
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: than that, I mean, it is it is an amazing car.
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: And then everybody knows, you know, Toyota, Toyota's last forever. Yeah,
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: but but the but the but what's changed about that though?
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: Is that not just with Toyota, It's almost with all
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: auto manufacturers. It's not about the mechanical part of the
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: car anymore. Now. People used to say Toyota's last forever
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: because the mechanical is just so good. These cars are
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: every car, Volvo, Mazda, Hyundai, Toyota, Lexus, whatever, They're all
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: just rolling computers. So your car is truly only as
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: good as your computer system that's inside the car.
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: So true, So we want to see how that goes.
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: Oh man, that's pretty good pricing. Was it a pretty
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: good deal?
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I think I think sticker was forty three. We
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: got them down to thirty nine, and honestly, you know,
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: I was really impressed. I went to a dealership. They
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: were like, look, I don't know when the last time
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: you were at a regular dealership was. But a lot
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: of dealerships nowadays don't do commission. We don't do haggling.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: This is the best price, and we show you we're
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: very transparent what we paid for the car, what we
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: intend to make on the car, because obviously we're a
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: business and we have to make a profit. So here's
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: the best price we can give you take it or
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: leave it. And there's no haggling, and it's just like boom,
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: here's your price. This is it.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: That's pretty good.
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: And again you're right they they those cars are built
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: pretty good. I think we've all known somebody the I
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: had a I had a camera as well. It was
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: my when my mom passed, I needed a car because
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: the engine on mine went out. So I drove or
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: I flew to Honeting the beach and drove the car home.
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: And I used that for a long time until some
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: yeah who hit me on the freeway and then it
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: burned up in that fire in the auto shop.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: So, oh, yeah, that that was the one that I
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: had to YEA, yeah.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Show that one.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: I mean yeah, I mean, Toyota's are really good vehicles.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: I'm I'm impressed. I look forward to it. I mean,
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: obviously it's gonna be Mesa's primary car, but we are
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: going to go back and forth. You know, She'll take
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: the Tesla one of the days and I'll take the
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: camera or whatever, so but primarily I'll have the Tesla.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: And speaking of that, immediately after we did this, I
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: went ahead and just bought all kinds of accessories for
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: the Tesla nice. I mean I got I got wheel
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: covers to hide the scratches on the rim. I got
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: a full full interior LED light kit. I got a
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: USB charging doc that fits into the center console tray.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: I got a carbon fiber spoiler, a carbon fiber dash.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: I mean, I just went nuts. I bought all kinds
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: of stuff. And She's like, can you just keep the
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: Tesla like standard? And I'm like, nope, all.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: Right, here's a question for you. This is good, all right?
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: In a household that has a gas vehicle and a
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: electric vehicle, you go to South Dakota quite a bit,
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: visit your Mom, Yeah, would you be taking the gas
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: vehicle for convenience or have you found it to be
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: just as convenient to be able to go in the electric?
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: So last Thanksgiving, not this one that just happened with
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: Last Thanksgiving, we took the Tesla and we found that
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: a normally five and a half hour drive turned into
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: about seven hours because we did have to stop in
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: charge three times, which wasn't a big deal. It was
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: give us a chance to get up, stretch her legs
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: around for a little bit. Each time was about thirty minutes.
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: This year we took the Ford Explore and honestly it
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: was about six hour drives, So you're talking about an
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: hour difference between, you know, what I had with the
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: Explorer and then with the Tesla. In terms of the
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: the Tesla, I really honestly like the self driving. It's
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: not we didn't actually have the self full self driving,
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: but we did have the enhanced autopilot, which would basically
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: just follow your path for you if you were on navigation,
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: and it would keep you in the lane and it
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: would watch for you. I really like that feature. So
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: I would say I really like the Tesla on long
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: road trips because of that it helps with the fatigue. However, obviously,
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: convenience is being able to just pull into a gas
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: station three minutes later, have your gas tank fold up,
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: and you're back on the road.
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's what I would think would be that.
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: But people are telling me no, the electrics, they've been
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: pretty comfortable with those. And again, there are enough charging
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: stations throughout the country now that you're not going to
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: run into an issue at least.
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for the most part. Yeah, absolutely, Sean, What do
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: you drive?
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: I have a twenty seventeen Chevy Colorado and Caitlyn drives
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: a twenty twenty three Rev four Toyota Rev four. She
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: had she had a Prius, a Toyota Prius from twenty
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: twelve until it got totaled in winter of early winter
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: of twenty twenty two. What happened She got t boned
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: at a four way stole. Ou Yeah, I loved that
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: PRIs the Prius. You know, everybody gave a lot of
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: grief to Prius. Right, there's no guts, you know, it
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: just takes forever to accelerate river that car, especially in
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: the winter time. It was just for a wheel drive.
• 30:50
  Speaker 4: But if you put decent snow tires on it. That
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: car drove fantastic. It got amazing gas mile I was
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: like forty eight to fifty on the highway, forty to
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: forty five in the city. We drove it all over
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: the country. We were looking at like, what did we
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: want to get after it got totaled, and Caitlin wanted
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: to get a small suv. So we looked at the
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: you know, the Honda pilots. We looked at the crvs.
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: She looked at the Mazda c X five. She looked
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: at a couple, you know, the Super Forrester, a couple
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: of other things, but she ultimately settled on another Toyota
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: with the raft Wour, which the raft war is also
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: an incredible vehicle drive.
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: Well, we have a listener question, so let's go ahead
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: and hit that right now. This is from David here
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: in Celarita. A quick question for you guys. My neighbor
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: is on a fixed income and asked me the other
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: day if he could piggyback on my wif Fi. Now,
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: I was surprised he knew that we had Wi Fi,
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: but said that our name was the identifier. I guess
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: they named their WiFi the family name he said, should
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: I change that? And are there risks assuring my WI
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: Fi with my neighbor again?
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: Don't So I would say, don't ever share your WiFi
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: with anybody you don't immediately your immediate family, right. And
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: some people can say, oh, just activate the guest network,
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: And no, that's two consumer grade routers are so perceptible
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: to Tomfoolery and Shanigan's it's not even worth activating the
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: guest network.
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: And this time the neighbor might be upstanding, but anybody
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: that's able to get into his system could then utilize
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: it for their benefit.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: Correct, Well, yeah, I mean but.
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: Okay, so you give your neighbor your password. Well, now
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: your neighbor gives his grandkid the password. Well, his grandkid
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: gives his two friends the password. Those two friends give
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: their two friends the password. Right now, they're now they're
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: over reasonably bandwidth for a Halo Land party.
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and and not only that, but just think about
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: you know, your your neighbor. What if they're not upstanding citizens.
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: What if they're out there browsing stuff that is illegal
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: on the internet, or what if they're downloading you know,
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: movies are not or yeah, or even worse, what if
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: they're downloading these movies in stuff like, you know, pirating movies.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: Who's going to get the letter from from from you know,
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: the the ISP saying hey, you're doing illegal stuff. You
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: are because it comes back to your account.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: All right?
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: No, ever, ever, don't ever share your WiFi to anybody, David.
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: No.
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: Now here's here's the fun thing, right, what is your
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: Let's go around the horn here? What is your WiFi called? Andy?
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: I named mine after God. I don't even know why
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: I named it that. I named it something that is
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: completely unrelated to the family.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: It's unrelated to oh what they come on?
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: Just say it dark water, all right, that's what I
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: named that is all right. I don't know why I
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: named it that, and it's been that way for a while.
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: I don't think I've ever maybe at one other time,
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: had something different, but I would never ever name it
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: the family name. Now, I like some of the names
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: that are out there for you know, s s IDs
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: to name your WiFi.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: There are some great ones out there. I say, make
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: it fun, right, oh, justin.
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: Justin, what's yours?
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: What is yours? The Wu Tang land, the Wu Tang
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: land instead of the Wu Tang clan. It's the Wu
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: tang Land.
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: Oh, there you go. That's the name of the show
• 34:19

• 34:23
  Speaker 2: Sean Land before Time, Land before Time nice? I like it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: There's so many good ones, right, there's all these articles
• 34:33
  Speaker 4: that have gone back.
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: There's another one I really like, tell my WiFi a lover.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, really, you know, tell my WiFi but
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: when you say it fast, tell my WiFi love her? Yeah,
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: landol Land. Yeah, I mean there's like, there's so many.
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: There's so many good so many good ones.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Oh my favorite is like NSA surveillance van number five.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: That's what that's actually what mine used to be. And
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: way back in the day, I would have people like
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: they would walk by my house and stuff, and I
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: would see them walking by on their phones. Maybe they
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: were just scanning for Wi Fi or whatever, but they
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: would see potentially, I guess, they would see the name
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: of my WiFi and they would stop and they start
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: looking around like looking for like like looking for an
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: inconspicuous van or something.
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: These are fun, but in essence, can you not broadcast
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: your your SSID?
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, of course you can make it it hidden
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: you can make it hit. But even if you hide it,
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: it's really not hidden. It's it's hidden for the most
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: basic of people. If you have the most rudimentary uh
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: wi Fi scanner, it's still gonna come up with with
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: the hidden quote unquote hidden networks.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: The wu tang Land, I love it.
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, ip frequently, that's good. I pronounce you man and
• 35:52

• 36:02
  Speaker 2: those are all nicknames and stuff. Yeah, hid your kids?
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: Hid your WiFi? Again?
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: Our listeners can let us know theirs if they want Again.
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: Tech guys at tech talk radio dot another quick break,
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: we come back. Another listener question from ROBERTA.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: Tucson. That's standing by. I'm Andy Taylor, I'm Sean.
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: De Weird and I'm justin Let me one more Wi
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: Fi fo F. That's a pretty good one. We'll be
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: right back now back.
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: To tech talk Radio. We have another listener question to
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: come out of the break. Yes, and if my web
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: browser will cooperate, I can read it.
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: You can drop us the line anytime you have a question.
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: Tech guys at tech talk radio dot com, and we
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: love that ask.
• 36:39
  Speaker 4: We love reading these questions because it it spurs up
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: a conversation. We get a really good dialogue going. But
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: this one is from ROBERTA from Tucson. All Right, the
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: question is I was telling a friend of mine, I
• 36:51
  Speaker 4: was thinking about getting Microsoft Office because there really is
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: a lot you can do with it. She was telling me,
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: and she's not two tech savvy. She said Open Office
• 37:00
  Speaker 4: is just as good and it's free. I'm nervous about this.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: Is it safe because it's free?
• 37:07
  Speaker 4: Because it's free? Yeah, Open Office or open libra office
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: is a great open source tool that's free. It's got
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: word processor, it's got a PowerPoint very similar to you know,
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: similar to PowerPoint. It's got all those things that you
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: can use. If you're looking for a basic word processor
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: that's going to do it. Open Office is totally acceptable.
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: Can you save save it in files?
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: Like say your boss hey has Office and he wants
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: to get it in a doc format, you know, doc
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: x or whatever.
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: Can you save it in that format even from open Office?
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: I believe so. I'd have to check, but I believe
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: you can expert And to be honest, most of the
• 37:46
  Speaker 4: Microsoft suite can open just about any other document from
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: other word processing softwares because it has to write.
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: You can't.
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: You can't be the leading web word processing software and
• 38:01
  Speaker 4: not be able to open up other very common word
• 38:04
  Speaker 4: word word file types. So now I'm gonna promote a
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: website We've talked about previously on this website on the
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: show Alternative to Great Resource. And that's alternative to Yeah,
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: alternative t o dot net. And if you have a
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: piece of software that you're like, oh, I don't want
• 38:26
  Speaker 4: to pay two hundred dollars for this piece of software,
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: you can go to Alternative type it in and it's
• 38:32
  Speaker 4: gonna give you a list of alternative softwares that are
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: more often than not open source and free. So the
• 38:39
  Speaker 4: common one that I talk about is Photoshop. Right, everybody
• 38:42
  Speaker 4: knows what Photoshop is. Type in Photoshop. You're gonna get Gimp,
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: and you're gonna get a couple of other other solutions
• 38:48
  Speaker 4: that are free that are just as powerful, if not
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: in some cases better than not necessarily Photoshop. Any alternatives
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: that are better than the one you may have been
• 38:58
  Speaker 4: looking at, So alternative to that, go check it out
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: if you're if you're curious about open source software, and
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: don't be afraid about open source software, open source software
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: is community driven, right, It's driven by the people that
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: care about the software, that are developing it for the users,
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: not necessarily for profit. So it's sometimes you get a
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: little bit better community support, you get a little bit
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: better product updates, you get a little bit you know,
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: your feature requests may be heard by more people that
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: can can tie those in. And then if you're savvy
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: with software, you can take that piece of software because
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: it's open source, the code lives out there for free
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: and develop your own products or your own your own
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: pieces of equipment or you know, your own software development.
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: Get that works with this piece of software.
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: So I can I can kind of see though, Sean
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: though Roberta's hesitation, because how often are we saying, don't
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: download this through a link, don't download this from a website.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: You don't know. You have to be vigilant in what
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: you're downloading from. I mean you do app oh yeah, no, for.
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: Sure, right, don't just go oh, here's a great free
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: word processor app that I just searched forward. It was
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: the first link at the top that had four pop
• 40:17
  Speaker 4: ups that said download yeah. Right, there are there are
• 40:20
  Speaker 4: clear and present dangers on the Internet, and you know,
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: do a little bit of research, right, Don't just be like,
• 40:27
  Speaker 4: oh here's this free, think download, right, do a little
• 40:29
  Speaker 4: bit of research, read some reviews, read our blog, read
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: any other tech blog. Like, just do a little bit
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: of research, do your due diligence, and don't just go download.
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: Like she came to us, asked us the question, right,
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: that's doing her due diligence and saying, hey, I'm worried
• 40:46
  Speaker 4: about this. Is it safe? Yeah, it's safe. Download it,
• 40:49
  Speaker 4: use it. It's gonna be a great tool for you
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: and tell your friends.
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: Well, it's kind of like you know, when when I
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: decided to start playing around with Linux, you know, Linux
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: been Tony two and then the womb. It's free, but
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: I was very careful about where I got it from,
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: and man, it was great.
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: Actually it wasn't free for win Buntu.
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: That still cost me thirty five bucks for me to
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: get the tools, but it was worth.
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: It, absolutely worth it to be able to do that.
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: And so yeah, I mean, just like you said, the
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: due diligence, that is a that is a good thing.
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: Just to be be careful where you're getting it from,
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: because I'll tell you the scammers, the hackers, they're working
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: really hard right now, right around the holidays. They're coming
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: out of everywhere, and I'm seeing it in emails from
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: what should be Amazon.
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: I go it.
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: So for many of us, our payroll processor is ADP, right,
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: what is it? Advanced Data of something whatever?
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: ADP. I get an email.
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: Today Events Data Processing.
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I get an email today from APD APD yes,
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: wanting me to log in to verify my employment so
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: I could take a look at my paychecks and blah
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: blah blah. Yeah, no, no gonna fall for that one.
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: So they are trying to trick you in many ways.
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: One thing we've heard this week, and I know you
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: at least Justin and I think Sean you may be
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: using it, is YouTube TV.
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: I have been on the fence. I've been waiting.
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: It looks like Ting is not going to be able
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: to do our wiring till maybe April or May of
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: next year. And that's when I was going to just
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: switch completely from Xfinity but and go to YouTube TV
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: and Ting YouTube TV has decided to raise this prices
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: just like everything else, right yep. And apparently that a
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: lot of people say that's it, I'm canceling, and they
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: canceled I just.
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: Had a conversation with a co worker about this. We're
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: coming full circle. Yeah, everybody's tired of buying pay per
• 42:43
  Speaker 4: view or this and that and buying this over there
• 42:47
  Speaker 4: and paying for this over there. It is all getting
• 42:49
  Speaker 4: bundled again.

• 43:02
  Speaker 4: playing like I just don't get it? The streaming wars
• 43:06
  Speaker 4: are this is is so ridiculous. A lot of people
• 43:09
  Speaker 4: are doing is They're they're going month to month, They're
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: paying for a month and then canceling because they know
• 43:16
  Speaker 4: they're only going to watch it for a month to
• 43:17
  Speaker 4: watch the one show or two shows that they want. Yeah,
• 43:20
  Speaker 4: and then I just feel like that's such a hassle.
• 43:22
  Speaker 4: But we're even thinking about trimming back on. Do we
• 43:25
  Speaker 4: watch enough Prime Video to warrant us having a Prime account?
• 43:29
  Speaker 4: You know, it's it's ridiculous.
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: Like, I don't know, I've had Prime for years, and
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: I'm thinking do I I have Prime? Because I know
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: we do a lot of purchases, you know, with Amazon.
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: I think that's that's part of it, and I don't
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: have to then worry about paying for shipping and handling
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: because that comes with Prime.
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: Oh but they've got this video service. Am I paying more?
• 43:51
  Speaker 4: I don't even know what was? When was the last
• 43:52
  Speaker 4: time you watched something on Prime Video?
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: Months? Like months?
• 43:57
  Speaker 4: Don't watch something and you'll see an ad. There's ads
• 44:00
  Speaker 4: on Prime Video, like it just popped in, and it's
• 44:03
  Speaker 4: it's frustrating as heck because I'm paying Prime. I'm paying
• 44:08
  Speaker 4: them one hundred dollars a year and now get ads.
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, well, considering what the other streaming services are charging, right,
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, one hundred bucks a year is not a lot.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: I mean you look at Netflix, you're paying almost twenty
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: bucks a month. Really, yeah, I think.
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: I just I finally watched something on Netflix the other day.
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: I watched that Carry On with Tarren Edgerson, and I
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: thought it was pretty good. It was like totally like
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: die Hard. I don't if you guys have seen that
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: one yet. If you like Diehard, you'd like that, but i'd.
• 44:37
  Speaker 4: Like you mean, you're watching something other than Hallmark Christmas
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: movies right now?
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Sorry?
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. And he's growing up. Our little boy's
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: growing up.
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: I had already seen the Hallmark movie that was on.
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: I'd already seen that one, so I needed to watch
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: something else.
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: But now I watched all of Hallmark.
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: That's all I've watched.
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: On Netflix seriously in a long time, other than The
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: Fight you know when that was on. So yeah, it's
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: just it's it's kind of weird. Yeah, you're right, I
• 45:02
  Speaker 3: mean the Wars are on. Now we've seen people going
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: up from seventy what is it, seventy two dollars a
• 45:07
  Speaker 3: month to eighty two dollars a month for YouTube TV?
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: People, do you still think it's worth it though?
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: At eighty two dollars a month?
• 45:14
  Speaker 4: I I so right, we're in an agreement with so
• 45:17
  Speaker 4: Kale's Pairs pay for YouTube TV, we pay for Disney
• 45:20
  Speaker 4: Place like we kind of do a sharing back and
• 45:24
  Speaker 4: forth and where they.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Get them on me.
• 45:27
  Speaker 4: We pay for Netflix, they pay for you know, so
• 45:31
  Speaker 4: and like Chris sister pays for whatever another streaming service
• 45:34
  Speaker 4: that we use. So we kind of shared it on
• 45:36
  Speaker 4: the horn. And now that they live, now that they
• 45:38
  Speaker 4: live closer, we're no longer getting flagged for the out
• 45:43
  Speaker 4: of Netflix.
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: Ah nice, right, because they live.
• 45:47
  Speaker 4: Much closer now, So within within the region. I guess
• 45:50
  Speaker 4: if you will, but I don't know. I'd have to
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: ask them what they paid, right, because we talked about
• 45:54
  Speaker 4: this when they switched right, they were on Charter Internet,
• 45:59
  Speaker 4: which is a local IP up in Luddington, and they
• 46:02
  Speaker 4: switched to you Cable and they were they dropped their
• 46:05
  Speaker 4: bill from like one hundred and twenty five dollars to
• 46:07
  Speaker 4: it was like sixty five bucks a month. Now, I'd
• 46:10
  Speaker 4: have to figure out what they're paying because I don't know.
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: Right when you start adding everything though Paramount plus Disney
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: plus Hulu plus.
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: Peacock, it did.
• 46:21
  Speaker 3: That's where you it's people are suddenly going, wait a minute,
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: how much am I paying for this?
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's more expecially and people people don't think about
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: it too.
• 46:27
  Speaker 4: It's on top of your what you're paying for your internet.
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: Right. I have HBO. I never watch it, but just
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: in case something's gonna come on. You know. It's well,
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: that's how.
• 46:36
  Speaker 4: They get you, right, That's that's physical media is king
• 46:39
  Speaker 4: because they get you.
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 46:41
  Speaker 4: You go you go to Netflix and you're like, oh, man,
• 46:43
  Speaker 4: I saw that the super manor Brothers movie was on
• 46:46
  Speaker 4: and I wanted to watch that and they're like, oh, sorry,
• 46:48
  Speaker 4: the last day to watch that was three days ago.
• 46:50
  Speaker 4: Well yeah, now, now where do I go and watch it?
• 46:53
  Speaker 4: I started, Let me go to let me let me
• 46:54

• 47:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah? That's what I got?
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: So it's consumers are frustrated, but consumers are also lazy,
• 47:10
  Speaker 4: so they will pay the money to not have to
• 47:13
  Speaker 4: go out of their way to get a disc out
• 47:15
  Speaker 4: and play it or buy it. They know what they're doing,
• 47:19
  Speaker 4: these companies, these streaming companies, they know what they're doing.
• 47:22
  Speaker 4: And you are paying for a license to watch these
• 47:25
  Speaker 4: you don't own it. And I keep telling people it's
• 47:28
  Speaker 4: gonna take one major internet out is for a period
• 47:31
  Speaker 4: of three to four days where people don't have internet,
• 47:33
  Speaker 4: and physical media sales are gonna skyrocket.
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: It's got a want more invice of DVDs.
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know exactly out of the five dollars bin,
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: that's what it's gonna be.
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be crazy, all right. I wanted to bring up.
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: The fact that chat GPT's doing something pretty cool. Uh
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: And I don't know if you you used that as Sean,
• 47:54
  Speaker 3: I know you use it for work and justin I
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: know we have Gemini, so we've been used in that
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: quite a bit.
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty good with Jemini most of the time.
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: It's it's pretty accurate. But chet JPT search has now
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: been made available for free for all. It used to
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: be only if you had a paid account. Now it's
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: for free. What you do is you go to your
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: chat GPT loggin you through open Ai. You set up
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: a free account and you'll see where you can create
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: and ask for an image, or you can ask for
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: a little globe and do a search.
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: And I got to tell you I did a.
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: Search just before the show of something that happened here
• 48:34
  Speaker 3: in Tucson and it pulled up so and it was
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: recently like in the last week. So again it's not
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: behind a subscription paywall.
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: It's free there.
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: They want people to use open Ai search instead of
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: course Google Search to help build the brand for chat GPT.
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: So if you want to try and do some searches
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: on there, see how that comes.
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: Up for you. All Right, we can take a quick break.
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: We've got more to wrap up a tech talk radio
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: for this week. I mean Taylor.
• 49:01
  Speaker 4: I'm Sean de Weird and I'm justin Let me.
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: You can send us an X at tech talk Radio.
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: We'll be right back and now back to tech talk radio.
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: Hey learning the cable guy and you're listening to tech
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: cock Radio.
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: So normally ask website of the week. Yeah, and none
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: of us ever have it.
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: We're like, I haven't been any websites this week.
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: I've actually got a couple of them that I found.
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: I was just kind of, you know, browsing around, and
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: I found something. I put them in a chat here.
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: The first one is it's really good for people that
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: are using like photographers or graphical artists or just people
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: that really want to know about the different colors. But
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: there's a website called every hex dot Codes, every h
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: e X, every hex dot codes, all right, and it
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: is every color imaginable and you can just float your
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: mouse cursser over it and it will give you the
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: hexadecimal code for that particular color. So if you need
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: to input it in to you know, uh, Photoshop or
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: or your your game illustrator or illustrator or whatever you
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: might be, this is every single hex color known. I mean,
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: it is insane. It's all sixteen point seven million colors.
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: So for those who don't want a website.
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: Don't understand every color has a hex associated with it,
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: and it's going to be just an identifier that this color,
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: this these numbers and letters represent that color.
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: So that's what like like hashtag B nine dB three
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: five is like a puke yellow kind of color. Randomly,
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: I just picked one.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: That's just nice.
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: This is pretty cool. It's every heex dot code. The
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: other one I was gonna mention is open megahurts. Now
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: I'm megahurts abbreviated open mh z, openmhz dot com. It
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: is aware for you to be able to go and
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: listen to unencrypted police fire ems radio channels, kind of
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: like uhod castify, except this is more. It's again it's open,
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: so it's uh, there's no one company behind it, and
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: you can easily record your own local radio system. So
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: you can just get like a twenty five dollars SDR
• 51:15

• 51:17
  Speaker 2: some sort of frequency in your area and feed it
• 51:20
  Speaker 2: into open SDR or open megat excuse me, open MHz
• 51:25
