Nope, but I turned on 12 00:00:54.359 --> 00:00:59.200 the I turned on the you know, grabbed my phone 13 00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:00.840 and looked at it because I'm like, if somebody's at 14 00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:03.359 my front door at two o'clock in the morning, that's concerning. 15 00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:07.079 There was nothing there. The wind was blowing a little bit. 16 00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:11.599 But then last night loud bang near Dodger Stadium, Echo Park, Chinatown. 17 00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:15.400 What the heck was that? I get these It's NonStop. 18 00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:19.000 I want to turn them off, but it's it's kind 19 00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:22.599 of entertaining. It's kind of entertaining and addicted. Yeah, speaking 20 00:01:22.599 --> 00:01:28.400 of entertaining, I watched Handmaid's Tale season and serious finale. 21 00:01:28.879 --> 00:01:32.280 I'm not going to tell you anything, but I will 22 00:01:32.319 --> 00:01:35.840 tell you that to watch the finale, you kind of 23 00:01:35.879 --> 00:01:39.560 have to go back to the beginning. So I did 24 00:01:39.560 --> 00:01:42.799 because remember yesterday, Will and I were talking yesterday that 25 00:01:43.519 --> 00:01:47.599 I liked the previous seasons better. So I went after 26 00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:50.319 watching the series finale, I went back and watched the 27 00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:53.120 first episode, and then I watched the second episode, and 28 00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:56.359 then I watched the third episode. I like the first 29 00:01:56.359 --> 00:01:59.280 season a lot better. It's a lot more creepy, it's 30 00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:04.079 a lot more interesting. Spelling Bee National Spelling Bee four 31 00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:07.200 kids in southern California is still in the hunt who 32 00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:09.800 We've got some of those words too.

People kind 39 00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:28.319 of went, oh, well, they're just eagles, they're growing up. 40 00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:30.080 But now that they're getting close to leaving the nest, 41 00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:33.360 people are gonna getting excited.

Here's what's ahead on wake Up Call. 45 00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:44.199 Thieves who cut through a roof and then through a 46 00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:46.680 wall have made off with more than two million dollars 47 00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:49.199 in cash and merchandise from a family owned jewelry store 48 00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:52.439 in Seem Valley. The owners say the burglars cut through 49 00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:54.879 the roof of a candy store next door to their business, 50 00:02:55.280 --> 00:02:57.599 then cut through a wall to get into their business. 51 00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:00.680 The burglars also cut through an eight inch safe and 52 00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:04.840 emptied it. La City councilors expected to finalize a revised 53 00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:07.840 nearly fourteen billion dollar budget after a vote scheduled for 54 00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:11.879 yesterday was delayed because of some paperwork issues. A new, 55 00:03:11.960 --> 00:03:14.759 highly contagious COVID strain has shown up in several states, 56 00:03:14.759 --> 00:03:18.199 including California. The strain was found as early as mid April, 57 00:03:18.199 --> 00:03:22.319 with infections in Washington, Virginia, and New York. The discovery 58 00:03:22.360 --> 00:03:24.879 comes after federal officials stated they would no longer support 59 00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:28.960 booster shots for healthy children or pregnant women. Coming up 60 00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:32.280 on Wake Up Called, President Trump's Big Beautiful Bill could 61 00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:35.240 be in trouble in the Republican controlled Senate. ABC Stephen 62 00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:36.719 Portnery's going to join us in just a couple of 63 00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:38.960 minutes to tell us who's pumping the brakes on it. 64 00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:42.639 We're talking with KTLA tech reporter Rich Demiro at five 65 00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:46.039 twenty what you can now get and what you still 66 00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:49.599 can't get on your iPad and websites that can save 67 00:03:49.639 --> 00:03:52.039 you money. That's always a cool thing. Amy's on it. 68 00:03:52.039 --> 00:03:55.360 It's a newer movie that makes you really appreciate the 69 00:03:55.360 --> 00:03:57.080 freedoms we have here in the US. I think you're 70 00:03:57.120 --> 00:03:59.080 going to like this one. And that's at the bottom 71 00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:01.319 of the hour. And then with summer travel season upon 72 00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:04.800 US Ihearts aviation specialist Jay Ratliffe is going to join 73 00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:06.479 us to tell us what to expect when we head 74 00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:10.560 to the airport, and surprisingly lax is a pretty good option. 75 00:04:11.639 --> 00:04:13.319 Let's get started with some of the stories coming out 76 00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:15.719 of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. The La County 77 00:04:15.719 --> 00:04:21.199 Assessor's Office is urging wildfire survivors to update their mailing addresses. 78 00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:24.839 Some property tex refund checks that are being mailed out 79 00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:29.040 have been returned as undeliverable because the homes that once 80 00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:32.480 stood at the original addresses have been destroyed, Residents need 81 00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:35.560 to update their information with their current location to get 82 00:04:35.600 --> 00:04:38.600 those checks. Nearly five months after they eat and fire, 83 00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:42.240 many in Altadena and Pasadena are still without long term housing. 84 00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:45.319 Judy Chu, who represents parts of Los Angeles County including 85 00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:48.000 Pasadena and Altadena, is calling on FEMA to launch a 86 00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:51.240 direct leasing program. She says fire survivors are struggling to 87 00:04:51.240 --> 00:04:54.439 find housing in LA's tight and expensive rental markets. Community 88 00:04:54.519 --> 00:04:57.399 leaders agree, saying many available units are out of reach 89 00:04:57.480 --> 00:05:00.240 due to high income and credit score requirements. Now urging 90 00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:03.680 the federal government to step in. Brigida Dugastino KFI News. 91 00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:06.160 News brought to you by American Vision Windows. New laws 92 00:05:06.199 --> 00:05:09.079 now in play allowing the FEDS to arrest illegal immigrants 93 00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:12.759 in jails in southern California. US Attorney Bill Assie tells 94 00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:16.360 kfi's John Cobalt, the city made the situation worse by 95 00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:18.720 not adhering to the original ice detainer. 96 00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:21.319 Now what they're forcing me to do is criminally prosecute 97 00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:23.879 the alien before they're deported. So not only are they 98 00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:25.600 going to get deported, but they're probably going to serve 99 00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:26.360 a couple of years. 100 00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:27.839 In federal prison. Before their deportation. 101 00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:30.240 LA City Council voted last year to officially become a 102 00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:33.439 sanctuary city so that city resources could not be used 103 00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:36.759 to help enforce federal immigration laws. And a sick dog 104 00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:39.360 has caused a flight from Detroit to Los Angeles to 105 00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:43.199 make an unscheduled stop in Minneapolis. A dog in the 106 00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:46.399 cabin became ill during the flight on Monday night. The 107 00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:48.720 captain decided to land the plane so the dog and 108 00:05:48.759 --> 00:05:50.959 its owner could get off and get medical care. The 109 00:05:51.000 --> 00:05:53.279 stop caused a two and a half hour delay. A 110 00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:56.079 passenger told KTLA that the captain told them the dog 111 00:05:56.199 --> 00:05:59.920 is going to be okay your morning commute. Not okay. 112 00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:02.560 We got a nasty crash, really bad. 113 00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:05.079 It's a jack Knife's big rig that has shut down 114 00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:08.519 all westbound lanes of the ninety one Freeway. The ninety 115 00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:11.639 one Freeway completely closed westbound. Excuse that team in the 116 00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:15.720 background at Lake at Lakeview, all lanes completely shut down 117 00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:18.319 as they work to clear this huge mess. Traffic is 118 00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:19.800 backed up, as you can imagine all the way to 119 00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:24.079 the seventy one. Take if you can, Imperial Highway. That's 120 00:06:24.120 --> 00:06:26.240 one good way to get around this to the north 121 00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:28.920 or to the south. You can take the two forty 122 00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:31.720 one as an alternate. We'll keep you updated. But again, 123 00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:34.839 the ninety one westbound closed at Lakeview with Southern California's 124 00:06:34.839 --> 00:06:36.079 most accurate traffic reports. 125 00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:39.839 I'm Will Cole Schreiver. Yeah, that sounds like a nasty one. 126 00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:41.560 Will's going to help you get around that and other 127 00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:44.360 problems on the roads all morning long. It's five oh 128 00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:47.000 seven on your Wednesday morning wake up call. It's say 129 00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:50.519 good morning to ABC, Stephen Portnoy. Stephen. The House has 130 00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:53.360 passed the President's so called Big Beautiful Bill, but now 131 00:06:53.399 --> 00:06:56.360 it heads to the Senate, and with very narrow margins, 132 00:06:56.360 --> 00:06:57.160 it could be in trouble. 133 00:06:58.040 --> 00:06:58.920 Yeah, I mean, look, we'll see. 134 00:06:58.959 --> 00:07:02.040 It doesn't help that over we learned that Elon Musk 135 00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:06.279 says he's disappointed by the Big Beautiful Bill and it 136 00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:09.600 doesn't cut enough. That the whole idea of a doge 137 00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:12.759 was to shepherd in cuts, and this bill doesn't cut it. 138 00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:17.560 If you will, So, you have Republican senators such as 139 00:07:17.560 --> 00:07:21.240 what Ron Johnson of Wisconsin Ran Paul of Kentucky who 140 00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:23.519 are already saying that they're going to make they're going 141 00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:26.600 to insist on tweaks to this bill, and you have 142 00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:29.720 House Speaker Mike Johnson this week in an interview with 143 00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:32.759 punch Bowl News describing it as trying to cross the 144 00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:35.000 Grand Canyon on a string of dental flaws. That's how 145 00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:38.600 difficult it was to get conservatives and moderates behind this big, 146 00:07:38.680 --> 00:07:43.040 beautiful bill that would make some cuts to some programs, 147 00:07:43.079 --> 00:07:46.920 also significantly ramp up spending, extend and expand the Trump 148 00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:51.959 era tax cuts. And so that's why you know there 149 00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:57.279 are concerns because this would, according to Republican opponents, expand 150 00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:00.519 the deficit and the debt by four trillion dollars over 151 00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:03.360 the decade, and they don't want to see that. In fact, 152 00:08:03.399 --> 00:08:05.279 they want to see further spending cuts. The question becomes, 153 00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:08.720 all right, where do you cut Because Josh Hawley, if Missouri, 154 00:08:08.759 --> 00:08:11.079 is one Republican who says you better not touch medicaid 155 00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:14.279 anymore than this proposal seeks to do. 156 00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:17.560 And we know that President Trump has said several times 157 00:08:17.639 --> 00:08:21.079 don't touch medicaid. So he's not he's not behind any 158 00:08:21.120 --> 00:08:22.759 of the cuts to Medicaid. 159 00:08:23.199 --> 00:08:25.360 Well, right, so it raises the question, Look, you have 160 00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:28.759 a couple of options. You could raise taxes. The President 161 00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:32.279 has indicated he would not oppose a new tax rate 162 00:08:32.759 --> 00:08:36.919 for millionaires at a certain threshold. But will Republicans get 163 00:08:36.919 --> 00:08:38.919 on board behind that, We'll see so far in the 164 00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:42.080 House they didn't. And you know, the other way would 165 00:08:42.120 --> 00:08:45.120 be to further cut spending. This bill proposes to increase it, 166 00:08:45.159 --> 00:08:48.120 particularly on the defense and border priorities of this president. 167 00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:53.480 Okay, So and Stephen, are they discussing it now? Is 168 00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:55.759 it on the floor for discussion or where does the 169 00:08:55.840 --> 00:08:58.080 bill stand for in the Senate? 170 00:08:58.200 --> 00:08:59.679 Well, I mean, as you know, last week, by a 171 00:08:59.679 --> 00:09:01.840 single vote, the House passed the bill and sent it 172 00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:03.679 into the Senate. So right now it'll go to the 173 00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:05.679 committees of jurisdiction in the Senate and they'll take a 174 00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:09.519 look and try to propose their own tweaks. The Speaker's 175 00:09:09.559 --> 00:09:11.919 warning against that because anything that the Senate does to 176 00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:13.320 change the bill has to go back over to the 177 00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.320 House for ratification before it goes to the President. And 178 00:09:17.159 --> 00:09:19.639 there's a concern that any tweaks the Senate might make 179 00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:21.159 might make it difficult to. 180 00:09:21.080 --> 00:09:21.840 Pass in the House. 181 00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:26.080 So the deadline that has been set by leaders is 182 00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:28.240 July fourth. To have this big, beautiful bill on the 183 00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:31.360 President's desk. It's not just the symbolism of having it 184 00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:34.320 happen on that holiday, it's the idea that the embedded 185 00:09:34.320 --> 00:09:36.440 in the bill is an increase in the debt ceiling, 186 00:09:36.799 --> 00:09:39.559 and if that's not addressed by July, the Treasury Secretary 187 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:41.960 has warned the US would be in default of its obligations. 188 00:09:42.279 --> 00:09:45.159 Okay, and we'll be watching at ABC. Stephen Portinoy, thanks 189 00:09:45.159 --> 00:09:47.320 so much for the information. As always, we appreciate it. 190 00:09:47.399 --> 00:09:47.720 You bet. 191 00:09:47.840 --> 00:09:49.919 Let's say good morning now to the host of Rich 192 00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:53.360 on Tech Saturdays from eleven to two right here on KFI. 193 00:09:53.399 --> 00:09:55.879 It's KTLA Tech reporter Rich DeMuro. 194 00:09:56.120 --> 00:09:58.840 Morning, Rich, Hey, good morning, is you amy? 195 00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:02.159 Okay, So we got the iPad and we've got something 196 00:10:02.159 --> 00:10:05.039 that they finally have on the iPad and something that 197 00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:06.840 they still don't have on the iPad. 198 00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:12.000 Well, it's only taken about fifteen years to get this application, 199 00:10:12.159 --> 00:10:16.519 but it is finally there. And that app is WhatsApp. 200 00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:20.120 That is the app. That's basically the entire story. People 201 00:10:20.159 --> 00:10:23.120 love WhatsApp all over the world. They use it to communicate. 202 00:10:23.480 --> 00:10:26.480 It is fully encrypted end to end, which people really like. 203 00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:30.159 It is owned by Meta, but it's on the iPad now, 204 00:10:30.279 --> 00:10:32.919 so you can have it on multiple devices, your phone, 205 00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:35.919 your Mac, your iPad. Messages do stay in sync and 206 00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:40.120 the end to end encryption stays intact across all devices. 207 00:10:40.240 --> 00:10:43.000 Okay, so go get it. I have a question, and 208 00:10:43.039 --> 00:10:46.559 that is that WhatsApp has been available on the iPhone 209 00:10:47.120 --> 00:10:49.960 but not on the iPad. Is there a reason for that? 210 00:10:51.279 --> 00:10:51.480 You know? 211 00:10:51.600 --> 00:10:54.679 I think part of it was the encryption situation, because 212 00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:58.120 when WhatsApp was first available, the reason I didn't use 213 00:10:58.159 --> 00:11:00.000 it is because you can only use it on one device, 214 00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:01.399 so the time, it had to be linked to a 215 00:11:01.399 --> 00:11:03.960 phone number on a phone, and then they sort of 216 00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:06.559 expanded that over the years. I don't know what the 217 00:11:06.600 --> 00:11:10.240 reason for the iPad lag was, but it's there now. 218 00:11:10.279 --> 00:11:12.919 The only other app that Meta needs to make for 219 00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:18.039 the iPad is Instagram, which people are baffled why there's 220 00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:19.960 not an official Instagram app. 221 00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:21.799 You know, you can put the phone app on. 222 00:11:21.759 --> 00:11:25.279 There, but there's no official sort of like big screen 223 00:11:25.440 --> 00:11:27.000 Instagram app for some reason. 224 00:11:27.159 --> 00:11:28.799 So maybe that will be next. 225 00:11:29.159 --> 00:11:32.600 Yeah, I didn't even know that because I have an iPad, 226 00:11:32.639 --> 00:11:34.399 I rarely use it because I just use my phone 227 00:11:34.440 --> 00:11:39.559 so often. But that's just crazy that the IG isn't 228 00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:40.879 on the iPad. 229 00:11:41.919 --> 00:11:43.879 Yeah, you would think there would be, but you know, 230 00:11:44.200 --> 00:11:46.879 I think at some point Instagram had like a reason 231 00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:48.960 for it, like oh, we want to keep it, you know, 232 00:11:49.039 --> 00:11:52.039 more intimate with your phone versus like your iPad. But 233 00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:53.879 you know, it's like, come on, give us options. 234 00:11:54.639 --> 00:11:55.000 Okay. 235 00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:58.039 So I think that we've talked about this before about 236 00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:00.960 how you can turn your when take notes and stuff, 237 00:12:00.960 --> 00:12:04.200 you can turn it into a podcast, and now that's 238 00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:05.919 available in more places. 239 00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:08.879 Yeah, so we talked about this a couple weeks ago. 240 00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:12.559 Notebook LM is the tool. So this sort of was 241 00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:15.399 an experiment at Google, just like a small thing. It 242 00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:19.759 went viral because of this audio overview feature, which basically 243 00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:22.919 allows you to toss any information you want into this 244 00:12:23.039 --> 00:12:27.039 notebook LM app and it will convert it into a 245 00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:30.559 podcast basically with two hosts kind of talking about the information. 246 00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:32.879 But you can put anything in there, so you can 247 00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:35.360 you can, you know, put PDFs in there, you can 248 00:12:35.399 --> 00:12:38.480 put a website, YouTube, video, anything you want to learn 249 00:12:38.559 --> 00:12:41.279 more about. And what's neat about this is that it's 250 00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:44.600 only using that information, so it's kind of like a 251 00:12:44.600 --> 00:12:47.039 little bit cleaner than it would be if you just 252 00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:50.399 use like straight up AI because it's trying to pull 253 00:12:50.639 --> 00:12:53.159 just from your info. But the other thing is amy 254 00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:55.919 you can also ask questions. You know, you can sit 255 00:12:55.960 --> 00:12:58.200 there and like type in questions about things that you 256 00:12:58.240 --> 00:13:00.639 want to ask about the information you. 257 00:13:00.600 --> 00:13:01.039 Put in there. 258 00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:05.559 So anyway, it's a really cool learning feature available through Google. 259 00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:07.639 And now they finally came out with an app on 260 00:13:07.759 --> 00:13:10.279 iPhone and Android. This only took them like two years, 261 00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:12.840 so that's not too yet. But the cool thing is 262 00:13:12.960 --> 00:13:16.000 you can listen to those audio overviews anywhere basically. 263 00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:19.960 Okay, So my question is if it's taking your information, 264 00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:22.519 it's not going out searching the web. It's taking your 265 00:13:22.559 --> 00:13:26.799 information and making the podcast. Is this for like your 266 00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:29.639 own edification or to share with like, is it to 267 00:13:29.679 --> 00:13:33.039 help you study or is it exactly to share? 268 00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:35.759 No, I think it's I mean, you could share it. 269 00:13:35.759 --> 00:13:37.440 You could download the podcasts and share it out, but 270 00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:40.279 it's not meant to like make podcasts for you that 271 00:13:40.320 --> 00:13:42.320 you can like share with friends and family. That's not 272 00:13:42.440 --> 00:13:44.799 really the idea. The idea is that you're going to 273 00:13:45.200 --> 00:13:47.759 a foreign country. You want to learn everything you could 274 00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:50.360 possibly learn about it, and so you drop that information 275 00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:51.519 into notebook LM. 276 00:13:51.799 --> 00:13:52.919 It generates a podcast. 277 00:13:53.000 --> 00:13:57.240 I'm doing a panel discussion today, so they gave me 278 00:13:57.320 --> 00:14:00.759 a whole briefing book. I dropped that into notebook. I 279 00:14:00.840 --> 00:14:02.960 listened to that in my car, and now I'm briefed 280 00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:04.960 on all the things that everyone wants to talk about, 281 00:14:04.960 --> 00:14:08.519 the panelists, the background, whatever. But it's only that information. 282 00:14:09.039 --> 00:14:11.080 So it's really just you know, you want to learn 283 00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:12.799 a new law, you know, throw it in there. That 284 00:14:12.879 --> 00:14:14.440 Take it Down Act that they passed a couple of 285 00:14:14.440 --> 00:14:16.639 weeks ago. You can throw that in there and you 286 00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:19.480 can learn about that. So it's just a different way 287 00:14:19.480 --> 00:14:21.480 to learn. A lot of college students use it, a 288 00:14:21.480 --> 00:14:22.759 lot of lifelong learners. 289 00:14:23.320 --> 00:14:23.879 It's just a. 290 00:14:23.879 --> 00:14:27.120 Really different and convenient way to learn. Thanks to AI. 291 00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:31.639 Okay, and let's talk phones. Because you have been playing 292 00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:33.639 with the brand new S twenty five Edge for the 293 00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:37.120 last couple of weeks and you said you we talked 294 00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:38.559 to you about it, or we talked to you when 295 00:14:38.600 --> 00:14:40.320 you first got it, and you said, I'm gonna play 296 00:14:40.360 --> 00:14:41.639 with it for a while. Well now you have. 297 00:14:42.720 --> 00:14:44.639 Yes, So it's been about three weeks. I've been using 298 00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:48.320 it on a daily basis. This is Samsung's thinnest phone 299 00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:51.360 yet it goes on sale on Friday. It's super thin, 300 00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:54.600 it's super light. I do love that aspect of it. 301 00:14:55.559 --> 00:14:58.480 I don't love the fact that there's no dedicated zoom lens. 302 00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:01.639 It has become not a issue, but it's definitely not 303 00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:04.320 ideal if you're coming from like a phone that has that. 304 00:15:04.759 --> 00:15:07.080 But if you don't really care the phone, the camera. 305 00:15:06.840 --> 00:15:10.399 Is excellent on this device, like, really really impressive. I've 306 00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:13.399 used it in all kinds of different situations and it's 307 00:15:13.399 --> 00:15:17.039 a great phone. The battery life was my other question. 308 00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:19.320 I would say that the battery life is fine. If 309 00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:21.960 you have a charger, you're going to be fine. I 310 00:15:21.960 --> 00:15:24.440 would say it's not going to have as good battery 311 00:15:24.480 --> 00:15:26.440 life towards the end of the day as some of 312 00:15:26.440 --> 00:15:30.279 the main other phones, but still overall, I really like 313 00:15:30.320 --> 00:15:30.879 this device. 314 00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:34.519 Okay, So Samsung Galaxy S twenty five Edge available in 315 00:15:34.600 --> 00:15:40.000 stores now right Friday, Available in stores Friday.

I gotta go do a 360 00:17:30.400 --> 00:17:35.960 little perusing, save some money, especially the Amazons. Save a 361 00:17:35.960 --> 00:17:39.559 buck on every Amazon order. I could save thousands of 362 00:17:39.599 --> 00:17:43.880 dollars a year. That's the point, all right, Amy, on 363 00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:55.039 it as on it? What am I on? Well, I'm 364 00:17:55.240 --> 00:18:01.279 on the stream movies, TV shows, you name it. And 365 00:18:02.079 --> 00:18:05.599 as you might have noticed by now, I tend to 366 00:18:05.799 --> 00:18:08.160 jump down rabbit holes and when I start watching one thing, 367 00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:11.400 it takes me on to more things. And that's kind 368 00:18:11.400 --> 00:18:14.200 of what happened with this one. This week. I'm on 369 00:18:14.680 --> 00:18:19.440 the Diplomat. It's not the Carrie Russell TV series, The Diplomat. 370 00:18:19.920 --> 00:18:25.039 It's a movie. It's on Netflix and it's based on 371 00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:28.119 true events. I always love movies about true events. So 372 00:18:28.400 --> 00:18:32.640 here's the gist of it. An Indian woman shows up 373 00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:37.200 at the Indian embassy in Pakistan and she runs up 374 00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:40.519 to the window and says, I need asylum. She tries 375 00:18:40.559 --> 00:18:43.640 to get in. Of course, they're very skeptical of why 376 00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:47.880 she's trying to get in, and what unfolds is a 377 00:18:47.920 --> 00:18:53.160 pretty horrifying tale of betrayal and deceit and a diplomat 378 00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:55.440 who tries to figure out if the woman is telling 379 00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:58.559 the truth, is she tries to get out of the country, 380 00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:02.960 or if she's just playing them, and of course someone 381 00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:05.599 from Pakistan trying to keep her there, and you're figuring 382 00:19:05.599 --> 00:19:08.000 out what's going on there, how she got to be there, 383 00:19:08.359 --> 00:19:10.480 and the story unfolds. They don't want to tell you 384 00:19:10.559 --> 00:19:13.039 much about it, even though it's based on a true story, 385 00:19:13.880 --> 00:19:17.759 but it is a very very interesting story. It reminded 386 00:19:17.759 --> 00:19:22.000 me of Argo, remember Argo. Totally different circumstances, but still 387 00:19:22.200 --> 00:19:25.279 a story about a foreign citizen trapped in another country 388 00:19:25.599 --> 00:19:28.480 and a brutal regime that's trying to keep them there. 389 00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:31.680 It has you wondering one if she's telling the truth 390 00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:34.160 or she's just a terrorist trying to get it into 391 00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:38.519 the embassy. There are no known actors in this movie. 392 00:19:38.960 --> 00:19:42.039 It's not I'm trying to think, now, is there anybody? 393 00:19:42.039 --> 00:19:44.720 I don't think there was anybody, which I love because 394 00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:46.920 then you don't have the kind of preconceived notions of 395 00:19:46.960 --> 00:19:49.440 the actors. You just get to really enjoy the story. 396 00:19:50.039 --> 00:19:52.119 Another takeaway from this movie, and maybe it's because of 397 00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:55.839 a lot of movies, is that the soundtrack can really 398 00:19:55.880 --> 00:19:58.440 help advance the movie and have a really powerful impact 399 00:19:58.480 --> 00:20:02.000 on your viewing experience. This soundtrack is not great. It 400 00:20:02.079 --> 00:20:05.480 sounds like something out of a cheap seventies movie's. It 401 00:20:05.519 --> 00:20:08.680
