00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:57.000
<v Speaker 3>broadcasted in Southeast Texas, Houston, Galveston, Beaumont, and all that

14
00:00:57.079 --> 00:01:01.200
<v Speaker 3>stuff on KPRC nine Am, which, by the way, if

15
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:04.519
<v Speaker 3>you're listening anywhere in the world, it's the oldest talk

16
00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:08.439
<v Speaker 3>radio station in this great state of Texas. In fact,

17
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:13.799
<v Speaker 3>this is the longest running local show in the one

18
00:01:13.879 --> 00:01:18.640
<v Speaker 3>hundred and one year history of that station, kpe PRC. Now, yes,

19
00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:22.840
<v Speaker 3>it's also heard through the iHeartRadio app across the country,

20
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:28.439
<v Speaker 3>also podcasted wherever great podcast or heard. Three weeks ago,

21
00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:35.719
<v Speaker 3>this show expanded finally to San Antonio and we have

22
00:01:35.879 --> 00:01:39.879
<v Speaker 3>been pumped shout out to WOAI twelve hundred to blow

23
00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:44.239
<v Speaker 3>Torch down there in Central Texas, South San Antonio. Love you.

24
00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:49.040
<v Speaker 3>People already been coming in strong, phone calls, emails. Heck,

25
00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:51.239
<v Speaker 3>I've even been invited to do the show from the

26
00:01:51.359 --> 00:01:54.879
<v Speaker 3>river Walk, and we need to coordinate that people mad

27
00:01:55.000 --> 00:01:57.959
<v Speaker 3>I love going to that Riverwalk, needs restaurants, suggestion to everything.

28
00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:03.040
<v Speaker 3>But starting this week, there's bigger news. Are you kidding me?

29
00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:06.680
<v Speaker 3>Bigger news? You see? I had a goal all those

30
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:09.960
<v Speaker 3>years ago, twenty three plus years ago, to spread my

31
00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:13.240
<v Speaker 3>content to as many people who could listen. And that's

32
00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:17.439
<v Speaker 3>why I coined and trademark the term high tech Texan

33
00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:21.560
<v Speaker 3>instead of the high tech Ustonian where I currently live,

34
00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:26.639
<v Speaker 3>and as of this weekend, this show is truly Texan,

35
00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:27.840
<v Speaker 3>just like me.

36
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:39.400
<v Speaker 5>Hello Dallas and kfx R eleven ninety all you listeners

37
00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:43.240
<v Speaker 5>in Big D, we welcome you to the high Tech

38
00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:44.479
<v Speaker 5>Texan family.

39
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:48.680
<v Speaker 3>If you're a longtime listener, either in Southeast Texas or

40
00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:53.000
<v Speaker 3>online via the iHeartRadio app, you know how big this

41
00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:57.599
<v Speaker 3>one is for me because Big D is not just

42
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:04.319
<v Speaker 3>another city. Big D. Dallas is my hometown. Dallas is

43
00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:07.759
<v Speaker 3>where I was raised. Dallas is where a lot of

44
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:12.560
<v Speaker 3>my family still lives, including my parents, Larry and Susan Garfield,

45
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.719
<v Speaker 3>what's up? Who begged me, by the way decades ago

46
00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:18.479
<v Speaker 3>to study you become a doctor? Oh, you shouldn't get

47
00:03:18.479 --> 00:03:20.400
<v Speaker 3>in the media. You need to be a doctor, maybe

48
00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:23.400
<v Speaker 3>a lawyer or something like that. Guess what They finally

49
00:03:23.479 --> 00:03:26.719
<v Speaker 3>get to listen to their kid over the local airwaves,

50
00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:29.639
<v Speaker 3>And all I can say is, you know, you were

51
00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:32.039
<v Speaker 3>actually right. I probably should have become a doctor, maybe

52
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:34.960
<v Speaker 3>even a lawyer, anything else but a media personality. Neither here,

53
00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:39.479
<v Speaker 3>neither there. I am in Dallas, I am in San Antonio,

54
00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:42.680
<v Speaker 3>and I am in Houston, three of the most populous

55
00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:48.400
<v Speaker 3>US cities, the three largest cities in the state of Texas.

56
00:03:48.479 --> 00:03:51.840
<v Speaker 3>I couldn't be happier. Okay, let me explain. If you're

57
00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:54.919
<v Speaker 3>new to this show, all right, you San Antonio, you're

58
00:03:54.960 --> 00:03:58.599
<v Speaker 3>probably new three weeks in Dallas. You may have hurt

59
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:01.039

60
00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:04.400

61
00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:08.280
<v Speaker 3>talk about that. If you've never heard this, wait before

66
00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:24.519
<v Speaker 3>from the name of the show, you may be expecting

67
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:28.000
<v Speaker 3>to call in and have me help fix the motherboard

68
00:04:28.040 --> 00:04:30.720
<v Speaker 3>on your computer. Well, if so, guess what you're listening

69
00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:33.199
<v Speaker 3>to the wrong show. You might as well find a nice, blond,

70
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:36.240
<v Speaker 3>knowledgeable female who's been doing tech specific radio shows for

<v Speaker 3>is fun. This show is fast, personable, it's hip, it's hot,

73
00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:47.120
<v Speaker 3>it's happening, as my grown kids say, speaking of which,

74
00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:50.879
<v Speaker 3>you're actually gonna find out that I am a grown kid,

75
00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:54.160
<v Speaker 3>a kid who enjoys what he does for a living.

76
00:04:54.920 --> 00:04:57.759
<v Speaker 3>I'm a kid who gets to play with most any gadget,

77
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:02.240
<v Speaker 3>any car, any piece of food you want me to

78
00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:05.680
<v Speaker 3>try before you buy it. I am your guy. But

79
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:08.199
<v Speaker 3>know this, I am not afraid to hold back. If

80
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:11.079
<v Speaker 3>I don't like something, if I think it's cheesy, could

81
00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:14.560
<v Speaker 3>break easily, too expensive, I'm gonna tell you to walk away,

82
00:05:15.199 --> 00:05:18.720
<v Speaker 3>run away. It's as simple as that. This show is

83
00:05:18.759 --> 00:05:22.160
<v Speaker 3>not about computers. Well, I guess actually can be if

84
00:05:22.160 --> 00:05:24.480
<v Speaker 3>you want my vice, I'm buying laptops or desktops, but

85
00:05:24.519 --> 00:05:28.920
<v Speaker 3>It's also about cars and trucks. I test drive over

86
00:05:29.040 --> 00:05:32.680
<v Speaker 3>sixty vehicles a year. I can help you decide which

87
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:35.319
<v Speaker 3>ones to look at, which ones to stay away from.

88
00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:40.519
<v Speaker 3>It's about most anything that consumers want. Anything you like,

89
00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:42.839
<v Speaker 3>peanut butter. I'll tell you what I think is the

90
00:05:42.879 --> 00:05:47.639
<v Speaker 3>best one on the market. Cell phones, streaming services, bourbon,

199
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:29.919
<v Speaker 3>get a little mic takes mostly on sports. I'm a

200
00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:32.480
<v Speaker 3>sports nut. You know I'm gonna make some sports in

201
00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:35.879
<v Speaker 3>How about the Texas Longhorns. I was at the game

202
00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:40.399
<v Speaker 3>and Atlanta. I did go to the SEC Championship last week.

203
00:11:40.639 --> 00:11:42.480
<v Speaker 3>It didn't come out the way we wanted. But you know,

204
00:11:42.519 --> 00:11:43.879
<v Speaker 3>at the end of the day, I think I think

205
00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:46.960
<v Speaker 3>Sark may have been playing chess in three D or

206
00:11:47.039 --> 00:11:49.159
<v Speaker 3>four D. Maybe he just said, you know what, we've

207
00:11:49.159 --> 00:11:52.399
<v Speaker 3>got our If we don't win, just let Georgia take

208
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:55.799
<v Speaker 3>the Crown. We'll have a relatively easy path to the Natty.

209
00:11:55.919 --> 00:11:58.879
<v Speaker 3>We'll be back in the same building on January twentieth

210
00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:03.360
<v Speaker 3>and so maybe so anyway, massive Longhorn fan, I'm still

211
00:12:03.360 --> 00:12:06.960
<v Speaker 3>a Cowboy fan. People. I've lived through five Super Bowl

212
00:12:06.960 --> 00:12:09.559
<v Speaker 3>wins and I've got all five Super Bowl Repic Gold rings.

213
00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:13.720
<v Speaker 3>But it's the one of the flops this year. And

214
00:12:13.799 --> 00:12:16.519
<v Speaker 3>I will be talking later the show about some flops,

215
00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:22.159
<v Speaker 3>tech flops, car flops, sports flops, people flops. Maybe a

216
00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:24.879
<v Speaker 3>win or two. We're winning. Where now you were in Houston,

217

262
00:14:44.080 --> 00:14:46.639
<v Speaker 3>Some of my best friends, my childhood friends, grew up

263
00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:49.080
<v Speaker 3>in North Dallas. Went to W. T. White High School.

264
00:14:49.080 --> 00:14:50.879
<v Speaker 3>By the way, I already got an email over here

265
00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:54.639
<v Speaker 3>Chris Domhoff. Hello, haff I went to high school W T.

266
00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:57.200
<v Speaker 3>White with domb Hoff. He is listening, GARF. Been listening

267
00:14:57.240 --> 00:15:00.519
<v Speaker 3>to you here on iHeartRadio probably for about fifty years.

268
00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:02.480
<v Speaker 3>Great growing up with you. I never thought you'd mount

269
00:15:02.519 --> 00:15:04.919
<v Speaker 3>to anything. But it's pretty cool listening to you over

270
00:15:04.919 --> 00:15:08.360
<v Speaker 3>the year on eleven ninety. I guess that's a compliment.

271
00:15:08.879 --> 00:15:11.799
<v Speaker 3>Guess that's a compliment just because you're retired, bro and

272
00:15:11.840 --> 00:15:16.200
<v Speaker 3>you hit it big with ignite. I mean, come on, uh,

273
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:19.200
<v Speaker 3>three four six twenty nine Texan. You can call into

274
00:15:19.320 --> 00:15:21.559
<v Speaker 3>three four six two nine t e x A N

275
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:26.679
<v Speaker 3>Restaurants in Dallas. Don't laugh. I am not a pretentious guy.

276
00:15:27.879 --> 00:15:29.559
<v Speaker 3>I don't eat, believe it. I don't eat a lot

277
00:15:29.600 --> 00:15:32.000
<v Speaker 3>to eat. I don't eat a lot of red and meat.

278
00:15:32.320 --> 00:15:36.799
<v Speaker 3>I'll eat barbecue here and there. I rarely have a steak,

279
00:15:36.799 --> 00:15:40.039
<v Speaker 3>and I really have a hamburger, all right. So when

280
00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:42.960
<v Speaker 3>I come in and if I have two steaks a year,

281
00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:47.679
<v Speaker 3>I'm lying, okay, two two steaks year. One of them

282
00:15:48.159 --> 00:15:50.840
<v Speaker 3>is it Nick and SAMs. This is an unsolicited big

283
00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:53.000
<v Speaker 3>Nick and Sam fans. The reason why I love Nick

284
00:15:53.039 --> 00:15:57.039
<v Speaker 3>and Sam's cool meat area right off the edge of downtown.

285
00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:02.600
<v Speaker 3>They got a freak cavia. Actually, before I go the dead,

286
00:16:02.679 --> 00:16:04.759
<v Speaker 3>do they still have the free caviar bar. I was

287
00:16:04.799 --> 00:16:06.799
<v Speaker 3>just amazed first time I went in there, because I

288
00:16:06.919 --> 00:16:09.360
<v Speaker 3>like caviar, and I'm waiting in line with the bar

289
00:16:09.399 --> 00:16:11.200
<v Speaker 3>with my boys, and all of a sudden people are

290
00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:13.440
<v Speaker 3>going on with their little dishes and they're snacking on something,

291
00:16:13.440 --> 00:16:16.279
<v Speaker 3>and that's like, what are you eating? It's a caviar caviar.

292
00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:18.200
<v Speaker 3>Where'd you order that? Oh? No, it's a free caviar bar.

293
00:16:18.320 --> 00:16:19.840
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if they still have it. Somebody called

294
00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:23.399

302
00:16:45.399 --> 00:16:48.360
<v Speaker 3>When I was in Dallas, I lived on Taco Boyo.

303
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:53.200
<v Speaker 3>I have never walked into a Taco bell, but Taco

304
00:16:53.240 --> 00:16:56.000

<v Speaker 3>about that. Love me, just give me a freaking bean burrito. Okay,

00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:25.519

<v Speaker 3>can send immediately. How can you send a gift Michael,

317
00:17:31.119 --> 00:17:32.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean it's it auto a wrap. No, if you

318
00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:36.440
<v Speaker 3>think about it, think of a gift card. Okay. Now, generally,

319
00:17:36.519 --> 00:17:37.960
<v Speaker 3>when you get a gift card, you go to a

320
00:17:38.000 --> 00:17:40.519
<v Speaker 3>store and you buy a gift card. Oh, give me

321

<v Speaker 3>thirty five, give me fifty dollars, give me one hundred dollars,

00:17:42.799 --> 00:17:47.000
<v Speaker 3>me a thousand dollars. Go to Walmart, go to Target, whatever.

323
00:17:47.160 --> 00:17:48.279
<v Speaker 3>You know, if you really wanted an apple, you go

324
00:17:48.319 --> 00:17:51.079
<v Speaker 3>to the Apple store type of thing. It's not breaking

325
00:17:51.119 --> 00:17:53.640
<v Speaker 3>news that you can go online and buy a gift

326
00:17:53.640 --> 00:17:56.119
<v Speaker 3>card for yourself, or you can gift a gift card.

327
00:17:56.880 --> 00:18:00.440
<v Speaker 3>So much so, go to one of your favorite stores

328
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:02.079
<v Speaker 3>and it doesn't even have to be a brick and

329
00:18:02.119 --> 00:18:05.279
<v Speaker 3>mortar store. Go to an online store and go purchase

330

<v Speaker 3>and I got you a little gift card. That's cool.

335
00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:21.759
<v Speaker 3>That's the media. But there are other things too. Tons.

336
00:18:21.799 --> 00:18:27.000
<v Speaker 3>How about subscriptions. How about as my good friend cousin

<v Speaker 3>monthly basis and you can start it right online. They'll

349
00:19:02.759 --> 00:19:04.400
<v Speaker 3>the month. So that's something that you can do. Also,

350
00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:07.680
<v Speaker 3>one more before we take a break, really easy. I

351
00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:10.480
<v Speaker 3>talk a lot about streaming because streaming is a massive

352
00:19:10.559 --> 00:19:15.519
<v Speaker 3>technology that's relatively new, But streaming nowadays is almost it's

353
00:19:15.640 --> 00:19:17.839
<v Speaker 3>like we're going back to cable because there's so many

354
00:19:17.880 --> 00:19:20.319
<v Speaker 3>things that are bundled together. Oh, if you get Disney

355
00:19:20.319 --> 00:19:22.720
<v Speaker 3>even once you get Disney Plus and Hulu together, I mean,

356
00:19:22.759 --> 00:19:25.839
<v Speaker 3>just bundle these things and call it cable. I will

357
00:19:25.880 --> 00:19:28.559
<v Speaker 3>tell you this. You need to start unbundling. You need

358
00:19:28.599 --> 00:19:31.440
<v Speaker 3>to start killing some of your streaming services, because odds

359
00:19:31.480 --> 00:19:34.680
<v Speaker 3>are you probably have too many streaming services and you're

360
00:19:34.720 --> 00:19:37.480
<v Speaker 3>probably paying almost as if not more than your role

361
00:19:37.559 --> 00:19:40.880
<v Speaker 3>cable subscription. Do you really need Netflix and Disney Plus

362
00:19:41.599 --> 00:19:45.759
<v Speaker 3>and Hulu and Apple to TV and blah blah blah bah. Yeah,

363
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:49.039
<v Speaker 3>the thing is where I'm getting over here. Always go check,

364
00:19:49.119 --> 00:19:51.000
<v Speaker 3>probably every six months, what do you want? And if

365
00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:52.720
<v Speaker 3>you don't watch it, if your kids don't watch it,

366
00:19:52.920 --> 00:19:55.880
<v Speaker 3>ask yourself, what am I doing still paying nine ninety

367
00:19:55.920 --> 00:19:58.160
<v Speaker 3>nine nineteen ninety nine a month of the thing. But

368
00:19:58.720 --> 00:20:01.400
<v Speaker 3>when it comes to streaming and inner, maybe your parents,

369
00:20:01.519 --> 00:20:04.480
<v Speaker 3>maybe your neighbor, maybe your kids who had just moved out,

370
00:20:04.759 --> 00:20:08.400
<v Speaker 3>Maybe they don't have a streaming services service. Maybe you

371
00:20:08.440 --> 00:20:10.359
<v Speaker 3>want to get one of those. I'm not gonna give

372
00:20:10.359 --> 00:20:12.720
<v Speaker 3>you which one. I don't care what you get. Get Amazon,

373
00:20:13.279 --> 00:20:16.759
<v Speaker 3>get Prime Video, get Netflix, get Disney Plus. But it's

374
00:20:16.799 --> 00:20:19.839
<v Speaker 3>easy to sign up nowadays, or probably have some specials

375
00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:22.839
<v Speaker 3>on sale. I just saw it went off off sale.

376
00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:27.160
<v Speaker 3>Hulu had a ninety nine cent per month subscription for

377
00:20:27.240 --> 00:20:29.440
<v Speaker 3>one year. I think the deadline passed. I think it

378
00:20:29.480 --> 00:20:31.720
<v Speaker 3>was early December on that one. But take a look

379
00:20:31.720 --> 00:20:35.039
<v Speaker 3>out there. Those subscriptions may be simple, but tell you

380
00:20:35.079 --> 00:20:37.440
<v Speaker 3>what in a snap, can't think of anything to do.

381
00:20:37.759 --> 00:20:40.200
<v Speaker 3>Give them some sort of a streaming, maybe some entertainment,

382
00:20:40.240 --> 00:20:43.880
<v Speaker 3>maybe an audible account or book. But just remember iHeartRadio

383
00:20:44.599 --> 00:20:46.960
<v Speaker 3>absolutely free. You can listen to anything on iheard from

384
00:20:47.000 --> 00:20:48.960
<v Speaker 3>all over the country, all eight hundred plus of our

385
00:20:49.039 --> 00:20:52.480
<v Speaker 3>radio stations, including me, no matter where we are, where

386
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:55.160
<v Speaker 3>where you are? All right, break time, Bottom of the year.

387
00:20:55.680 --> 00:20:57.640
<v Speaker 3>How about a little tech flops? How about some flops

388
00:20:57.640 --> 00:21:01.079
<v Speaker 3>of the year three four, six, twenty nine Texan? All right,

389
00:21:01.240 --> 00:21:03.440
<v Speaker 3>you can't say the Cowboys. We know they're the flop

390
00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:05.759
<v Speaker 3>of the year. All right, when it comes when it

391
00:21:05.799 --> 00:21:08.559
<v Speaker 3>comes to our expectations of what the cowboys should have been,

392
00:21:08.640 --> 00:21:10.720
<v Speaker 3>I'm a cowboy. Event let me help you out. I

393
00:21:10.759 --> 00:21:13.680
<v Speaker 3>am not a cowboy hater. Nope. I got my opposite

394
00:21:13.680 --> 00:21:15.960
<v Speaker 3>at home. I got decorated burn orange and I got

395
00:21:15.960 --> 00:21:18.160
<v Speaker 3>the blue and silver people. No, I'm a cowboy lover

396
00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:20.519
<v Speaker 3>and I'm not too happy with my boys this year.

397

<v Speaker 3>it is you need. Bourbon, by the way, I'm a

442
00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:20.039
<v Speaker 3>big brownwater guy, big brownwater guy, collect bourbon. I give

443
00:24:20.039 --> 00:24:23.039
<v Speaker 3>me a price point, I'm gonna tell you a good one. Naturally,

444
00:24:23.079 --> 00:24:24.799
<v Speaker 3>you know what. As much as a Texan as I am,

445
00:24:24.839 --> 00:24:27.480
<v Speaker 3>I'm not a big Texas bourbon fan. I still got

446
00:24:27.480 --> 00:24:29.720
<v Speaker 3>to lean on a little Kentucky over there, but I

447
00:24:29.720 --> 00:24:32.359
<v Speaker 3>got a ton of that stuff. I actually do test

448
00:24:32.440 --> 00:24:37.279
<v Speaker 3>drive cars. I remember the Texas Auto Writers Association as

449
00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:39.319
<v Speaker 3>we get to know each other, which means for fifteen

450
00:24:39.400 --> 00:24:44.839
<v Speaker 3>sixteen years, I work and meet and talk to the manufacturers.

451
00:24:44.880 --> 00:24:48.079
<v Speaker 3>I don't deal with dealerships, just no dealerships. These are

452
00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:50.559
<v Speaker 3>directly for the manufacturers. That is not paid. I don't

453
00:24:50.640 --> 00:24:54.319
<v Speaker 3>endorse them. So we test drive these things, and every week,

454
00:24:54.920 --> 00:24:57.039
<v Speaker 3>every single week, for fifteen years, I have received a

455
00:24:57.079 --> 00:24:59.440
<v Speaker 3>test card from one week. I have driven over seven

456
00:24:59.519 --> 00:25:03.039
<v Speaker 3>hundred eight one hundred different vehicles over the past ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen,

457
00:25:03.079 --> 00:25:06.400
<v Speaker 3>fifteen years. It is up to me. It is my

458
00:25:06.559 --> 00:25:09.119
<v Speaker 3>content and is my mind. I can rag on them,

459
00:25:09.200 --> 00:25:12.000
<v Speaker 3>and I could. I can just tell you how disgusting

460
00:25:12.039 --> 00:25:13.680
<v Speaker 3>this is and how bad this is. I can tell

461
00:25:13.680 --> 00:25:15.720
<v Speaker 3>you how great they are. This is unpaid. And that's

462
00:25:15.759 --> 00:25:18.920
<v Speaker 3>what you're gonna get with me. You're gonna get the truth. Baby.

463
00:25:19.359 --> 00:25:22.279
<v Speaker 3>You can't handle the truth because I speak the truth.

464
00:25:22.519 --> 00:25:24.839
<v Speaker 3>That's exactly right. This past week I was driving in

465
00:25:24.880 --> 00:25:27.200
<v Speaker 3>a writing Yeah, I was driving. I was a Dodge

466
00:25:27.279 --> 00:25:32.480
<v Speaker 3>Durango RT Dodge Durango. Okay, I do evs. This let

467
00:25:32.480 --> 00:25:35.880
<v Speaker 3>me help you out. This is about as further away

468
00:25:35.960 --> 00:25:39.119
<v Speaker 3>from an R from an EV and electric vehicle as

469
00:25:39.200 --> 00:25:43.599
<v Speaker 3>you can get. This is a Dodge Durango massive HEMI

470
00:25:44.119 --> 00:25:47.000
<v Speaker 3>six point three leader. I mean you can hear when

471
00:25:47.000 --> 00:25:50.559
<v Speaker 3>I start the car up, I wake three or four

472
00:25:50.559 --> 00:25:52.839
<v Speaker 3>of my neighbors up. I mean, this thing rumbles. This

473
00:25:52.960 --> 00:25:57.720
<v Speaker 3>is a gas guzzling machine. Specifically, this is the RT

474
00:25:58.039 --> 00:26:02.519
<v Speaker 3>model R slash T stands for road track. It's pretty much.

475
00:26:02.519 --> 00:26:05.839
<v Speaker 3>It comes with its special RT badging and has an

476
00:26:05.920 --> 00:26:10.640
<v Speaker 3>upgraded suspension, upgraded tires and brakes, and generally more powerful engine.

477
00:26:10.680 --> 00:26:12.680
<v Speaker 3>And so between now and the end of the show,

478
00:26:12.680 --> 00:26:14.319
<v Speaker 3>I'll give you a little bit more play by a play,

479
00:26:14.319 --> 00:26:17.160
<v Speaker 3>But they start around at the bare bones level. You're

480
00:26:17.160 --> 00:26:20.319
<v Speaker 3>gonna get about fifty two fifty three thousand dollars just

481
00:26:20.359 --> 00:26:24.799
<v Speaker 3>to start before you continue to go up. But the

482
00:26:24.880 --> 00:26:29.160
<v Speaker 3>thing is, though there's no one answer. I'll get a question. Hey, Garth,

483
00:26:29.319 --> 00:26:31.400
<v Speaker 3>which by the way, is my nickname, not g A

484
00:26:31.599 --> 00:26:35.279
<v Speaker 3>R T H. Not Garth like Wayne and gar No,

485
00:26:35.279 --> 00:26:37.559
<v Speaker 3>no Garth like the first four letters of Garfield. So

486
00:26:37.599 --> 00:26:40.920
<v Speaker 3>if you want to get tight with me, spell it right, Garth.

487
00:26:41.079 --> 00:26:43.480
<v Speaker 3>They say, Garf, what's the best vehicle to get? What's

488
00:26:43.480 --> 00:26:46.160
<v Speaker 3>the best car? What's the best truck I should get?

489
00:26:46.839 --> 00:26:50.400
<v Speaker 3>And that's an open ended question because I generally answer

490
00:26:50.480 --> 00:26:57.400
<v Speaker 3>questions with a question, and that means I have to

491
00:26:57.440 --> 00:26:59.359
<v Speaker 3>ask you, well, what are you looking for? Are you

492
00:26:59.400 --> 00:27:01.480
<v Speaker 3>a truck? Do you want a truck? Do you want

493
00:27:01.480 --> 00:27:03.839
<v Speaker 3>a sports card? You want a two seater? Do you

494
00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:06.960
<v Speaker 3>want something? Because you're getting ready to have a baby,

495
00:27:07.079 --> 00:27:09.559
<v Speaker 3>and you need something that is safe, but also it's

496
00:27:09.559 --> 00:27:11.680
<v Speaker 3>got a big backseat that's easy to put a car

497
00:27:11.720 --> 00:27:15.720
<v Speaker 3>seat into. Do you want an electric vehicle? I mean,

498
00:27:16.000 --> 00:27:19.640
<v Speaker 3>so I answer questions at that point, I narrow it down.

499
00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:21.440
<v Speaker 3>So if you want to help me narrow things down,

500
00:27:21.480 --> 00:27:24.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm looking for this. I'm looking for this. Fine. I

501
00:27:24.039 --> 00:27:28.079
<v Speaker 3>have a podcast. Well, this show is podcasted, so if

502
00:27:28.160 --> 00:27:30.319
<v Speaker 3>Casha is it, you can hear the dulcet tones of

503
00:27:30.359 --> 00:27:34.480
<v Speaker 3>my voice over and over whenever, whenever you want to.

504
00:27:34.920 --> 00:27:38.720
<v Speaker 3>You can got iHeartRadio. Let's just look up high Tech

505
00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:41.759
<v Speaker 3>textan Michael Garfield and you'll hear it. But also there's

506
00:27:41.759 --> 00:27:45.319
<v Speaker 3>another podcast I do specifically about cars and trucks, and

507
00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:47.279
<v Speaker 3>I've done this for years, and so I did. There's

508
00:27:47.359 --> 00:27:49.599
<v Speaker 3>just a number of them, and they're they're really they're

509
00:27:49.599 --> 00:27:53.319
<v Speaker 3>they're they're relatively short. Nothing's longer than ten minutes, somewhere

510
00:27:53.359 --> 00:27:56.200
<v Speaker 3>between six to ten minutes. It's pretty much what's Michael

511
00:27:56.319 --> 00:27:59.559
<v Speaker 3>driving this week? I will tell you that, Hey, this

512
00:27:59.640 --> 00:28:01.480
<v Speaker 3>is good, But however, you may want to watch the

513
00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:04.119
<v Speaker 3>gas mileage or you know what. The back seat is

514
00:28:04.119 --> 00:28:06.200
<v Speaker 3>so small you're not gonna fit any you know, adult

515
00:28:06.240 --> 00:28:08.480
<v Speaker 3>sized people in there, or if you want to schlep

516
00:28:08.519 --> 00:28:10.720
<v Speaker 3>something in the back of this truck bed. This only

517
00:28:10.759 --> 00:28:12.519
<v Speaker 3>comes in a crew cabum and you're not gonna get

518
00:28:12.519 --> 00:28:15.119
<v Speaker 3>a longer, you know, six foot bed or something. Go

519
00:28:15.240 --> 00:28:17.440
<v Speaker 3>check that out and you can look for high Tech Texan.

520
00:28:17.759 --> 00:28:22.519

521
00:28:22.839 --> 00:28:25.319
<v Speaker 3>great podcast or then. So I know that's some of

522
00:28:25.319 --> 00:28:28.240
<v Speaker 3>the things that we have going on. Phone number here

526
00:28:32.920 --> 00:28:35.880
<v Speaker 3>message and we'll play it here shortly or maybe next week.

527
00:28:35.920 --> 00:28:40.519
<v Speaker 3>Three four six twenty nine Texan three four six two

528
00:28:40.680 --> 00:28:44.039
<v Speaker 3>nine Texan talked about I saw an article that started

529
00:28:44.039 --> 00:28:46.720
<v Speaker 3>listing some of the tech flops of the year. What

530
00:28:46.759 --> 00:28:48.359
<v Speaker 3>were some of the flops as we get to the

531
00:28:48.480 --> 00:28:51.960
<v Speaker 3>end of twenty twenty four, I think across the board

532
00:28:52.000 --> 00:28:53.680
<v Speaker 3>it seems to be And this was the first one

533
00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:57.720
<v Speaker 3>that came to mind. It was those Apple Vision pro

534
00:28:58.279 --> 00:29:03.319
<v Speaker 3>goggles that Apple released. When was that it was around

535
00:29:03.400 --> 00:29:06.759
<v Speaker 3>summer maybe maybe springtime or so. And these are these

536
00:29:08.240 --> 00:29:12.079
<v Speaker 3>ar VR goggles that are heavy, looks like a helmet

537
00:29:12.119 --> 00:29:14.359
<v Speaker 3>and you put it on, and they did. They were

538
00:29:14.440 --> 00:29:18.759
<v Speaker 3>they were incredibly pricey. What they were these like eighteen hundred,

539
00:29:18.799 --> 00:29:20.960
<v Speaker 3>two thousand and three thousand dollars. I did not have one.

540
00:29:21.000 --> 00:29:24.240
<v Speaker 3>I didn't even test one because they just they weren't selling.

541
00:29:26.359 --> 00:29:29.680
<v Speaker 3>And it's not that they were. I mean it was

542
00:29:29.720 --> 00:29:32.920
<v Speaker 3>a flop. But here's the thing. As interesting as the

543
00:29:33.000 --> 00:29:38.400
<v Speaker 3>technology is in goggles like that, I just don't think

544
00:29:38.519 --> 00:29:43.240
<v Speaker 3>the mass consumer audience is ready for that stuff. And

545
00:29:43.319 --> 00:29:44.799
<v Speaker 3>a lot of and you know, one of this, I

546
00:29:45.279 --> 00:29:48.039
<v Speaker 3>think this was the one that the vision pro They

547
00:29:48.119 --> 00:29:50.079
<v Speaker 3>wanted you to wear it outside because you can kind

548
00:29:50.079 --> 00:29:53.480
<v Speaker 3>of see through it, but they still needed some a

549
00:29:53.519 --> 00:29:57.240
<v Speaker 3>power you know, you had to wear a battery packing thing.

550
00:29:57.319 --> 00:29:58.720
<v Speaker 3>I mean it was like you're you know, you're walking

551
00:29:58.759 --> 00:30:01.640
<v Speaker 3>around like you're connected to like life support or something.

552
00:30:02.480 --> 00:30:04.759
<v Speaker 3>It just it wasn't there. I mean, I do play

553
00:30:04.759 --> 00:30:07.079
<v Speaker 3>with AR and VR glasses and actually I got a

554
00:30:07.119 --> 00:30:09.319
<v Speaker 3>pair from Meta I'm playing with that actually reminds me

555
00:30:09.359 --> 00:30:10.960
<v Speaker 3>I got to send them back to for the test

556
00:30:11.079 --> 00:30:14.160
<v Speaker 3>review unit. But I'm playing with fun some the Meta

557
00:30:14.759 --> 00:30:18.559
<v Speaker 3>and it's neat, but the best way for me and

558
00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:22.599
<v Speaker 3>my suggesting to experience them is sit down in a

559
00:30:22.759 --> 00:30:24.240
<v Speaker 3>in a in a chair with wheel it's like a

560
00:30:24.319 --> 00:30:27.160
<v Speaker 3>rolling chair, like a desk chair. Okay, you're at your desk,

561
00:30:27.200 --> 00:30:29.599
<v Speaker 3>and you know a desk chair generally has wheels. You

562
00:30:29.599 --> 00:30:33.079
<v Speaker 3>can kind of wheel yourself around. Sit down, and you

563
00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:34.599
<v Speaker 3>know what, maybe you want to take a belt and

564
00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:37.039
<v Speaker 3>strap yourself in like it's a ten thousand dollars pyramid

565
00:30:37.079 --> 00:30:39.119
<v Speaker 3>final question or something, because you don't want to fallow

566
00:30:39.119 --> 00:30:43.559
<v Speaker 3>because these things the spatial you know sense that you're getting.

567
00:30:44.599 --> 00:30:47.960
<v Speaker 3>It's crazy awesome, it's real, but you can lose your balance.

568
00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:50.720
<v Speaker 3>So sit down number one. Okay, And if you're in

569
00:30:50.720 --> 00:30:52.200
<v Speaker 3>a wheelie thing, and I tell you why, in your

570
00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:54.799
<v Speaker 3>wheeling thing because as you turn your head left, you're

571
00:30:54.839 --> 00:30:57.440
<v Speaker 3>gonna these goggles makes it look like and feel like

572
00:30:57.480 --> 00:30:59.839
<v Speaker 3>you're actually in this room or in space or wherever

573
00:30:59.839 --> 00:31:02.799
<v Speaker 3>you you are. So if you turn left, but anyway,

574
00:31:02.920 --> 00:31:05.119
<v Speaker 3>take your feet and start turning your chair just in

575
00:31:05.160 --> 00:31:07.640
<v Speaker 3>a circle. Just just make a circle, go left and

576
00:31:07.720 --> 00:31:10.359
<v Speaker 3>right as you look up, as you look down. I

577
00:31:11.119 --> 00:31:14.680
<v Speaker 3>was playing with a it was something in these metaglasses Meta,

578
00:31:14.759 --> 00:31:17.119
<v Speaker 3>which is the owner of Facebook and Instagram, but you

579
00:31:17.160 --> 00:31:20.519
<v Speaker 3>know the Zuckerberg's company. This is not an endorsement. This

580
00:31:20.559 --> 00:31:23.079
<v Speaker 3>is just the ones I'm playing with right now. But

581
00:31:23.440 --> 00:31:25.839
<v Speaker 3>it was a movie about a space shuttle and they

582
00:31:25.839 --> 00:31:29.000
<v Speaker 3>took this three hundred and sixty degree high definition camera

583
00:31:29.519 --> 00:31:32.440
<v Speaker 3>in the actually was the ISS, it was the International

584
00:31:32.480 --> 00:31:35.200
<v Speaker 3>Space Station, and they talked to and they showed the

585
00:31:36.039 --> 00:31:38.240
<v Speaker 3>I think there was two sometimes three depending on when

586
00:31:38.240 --> 00:31:41.319
<v Speaker 3>they were shooting this inhabitants of the space station and

587
00:31:41.359 --> 00:31:44.359
<v Speaker 3>how weightless it is. But it's unbelievable because you actually

588
00:31:44.400 --> 00:31:48.000
<v Speaker 3>feel like you're weightless yourself and you're looking and you're

589
00:31:48.039 --> 00:31:49.599
<v Speaker 3>looking up, and you can move your head up, and

590
00:31:49.640 --> 00:31:51.519
<v Speaker 3>you can move your head down, and then you wheel

591
00:31:51.559 --> 00:31:53.759
<v Speaker 3>you're not just turn your feet around and now you're

592
00:31:53.759 --> 00:31:56.759
<v Speaker 3>looking behind it. It's three hundred and sixty degrees. That

593
00:31:56.920 --> 00:32:00.799
<v Speaker 3>is cool, but it's not for everybody going back, What

594
00:32:00.880 --> 00:32:02.559
<v Speaker 3>were the flops of the year. I want to open

595

<v Speaker 3>the phone lines and feel free to hit me up

602
00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:27.440

680
00:37:02.119 --> 00:37:05.880

00:37:44.159 --> 00:37:47.039
<v Speaker 3>appreciate all my igh school people. Listen from W. T. White,

694
00:37:47.800 --> 00:37:50.679
<v Speaker 3>what is it dollar forty two? I say this, it's

695
00:37:50.760 --> 00:37:57.360
<v Speaker 3>because I get a check once a year. I don't

696
00:37:57.360 --> 00:37:58.920
<v Speaker 3>think it's twice year because I haven't seen one in

697
00:37:58.920 --> 00:38:00.719
<v Speaker 3>a while. I may get a check once a year.

698
00:38:01.760 --> 00:38:07.599
<v Speaker 3>From my appearance on General Hospital. Yes, that's right. Your

699
00:38:07.639 --> 00:38:11.440
<v Speaker 3>boy just doesn't do radio. Slapped the little makeup, little

700
00:38:11.440 --> 00:38:13.639
<v Speaker 3>lipstick on a pig, and he's presentable here and there.

701
00:38:14.280 --> 00:38:17.559
<v Speaker 3>I did a stint like a three three episode arc

702
00:38:17.639 --> 00:38:21.000
<v Speaker 3>on General Hospital in twenty eleven. So this is thirteen

703
00:38:21.199 --> 00:38:25.000
<v Speaker 3>years ago, right, And I get a check. I'm not

00:38:25.039 --> 00:38:27.360
<v Speaker 3>a SAG member. I don't have a screen actor's go card,

705
00:38:27.559 --> 00:38:29.960
<v Speaker 3>but I think it comes from ABC because General Hospital

706
00:38:29.960 --> 00:38:31.880
<v Speaker 3>still I think it's the last remaining or one of

707
00:38:31.920 --> 00:38:35.159
<v Speaker 3>the last two remaining soap opera still on. And I

708
00:38:35.480 --> 00:38:37.679
<v Speaker 3>get a check, and I'm not kidding you, man it

709
00:38:37.679 --> 00:38:41.320
<v Speaker 3>it gets its ABC Network, ABC Studios and it's a

710
00:38:41.400 --> 00:38:44.159
<v Speaker 3>check and you open up. I kid you not. If

00:39:54.400 --> 00:39:56.679
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna end this the first time on a very

735
00:39:57.440 --> 00:40:00.000
<v Speaker 3>big note. Okay, there's not a lot of good news

736
00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:02.719
<v Speaker 3>is that's happening in the world right now? There really

737
00:40:02.800 --> 00:40:05.000
<v Speaker 3>is not. There's not a lot of good news that's

738
00:40:05.039 --> 00:40:07.840
<v Speaker 3>happening in the media world right now. Okay, you got

739
00:40:07.840 --> 00:40:10.599
<v Speaker 3>companies now merging, you got companies laying off. You got

740
00:40:10.599 --> 00:40:16.039
<v Speaker 3>this whatever it is, and call it lucky. No, it's

741
00:40:16.079 --> 00:40:18.679
<v Speaker 3>not luck, because I always say this, I don't think

742
00:40:18.719 --> 00:40:21.119
<v Speaker 3>there's such thing really as luck, because you make your

743
00:40:21.119 --> 00:40:24.519
<v Speaker 3>own buck. And this is words I live by. Here's

744
00:40:24.559 --> 00:40:27.320
<v Speaker 3>my sales motivational speech for anybody who wants me to

745
00:40:27.360 --> 00:40:28.719
<v Speaker 3>come in and speak to your group because they do

746
00:40:28.719 --> 00:40:31.719
<v Speaker 3>a lot of speaking around the country. You make your

747
00:40:31.719 --> 00:40:34.000
<v Speaker 3>own buck and so much. Someone is thinking about this,

748
00:40:34.079 --> 00:40:37.159
<v Speaker 3>how about these lottery winners. Don't tell me that these

749
00:40:37.239 --> 00:40:41.079
<v Speaker 3>lottery winners are just luck. They actually had to get

750
00:40:41.119 --> 00:40:45.440
<v Speaker 3>their butts in the car to go to a store

751
00:40:45.800 --> 00:40:48.960
<v Speaker 3>to buy a lottery ticket, sometimes waiting in line and whatever.

752
00:40:49.079 --> 00:40:53.159
<v Speaker 3>They made a portion of that quote unquote luck happen,

753
00:40:53.400 --> 00:40:56.000
<v Speaker 3>all right, So it's hard working, hard luck. The fact is,

754
00:40:56.039 --> 00:40:59.159
<v Speaker 3>though I've been doing this radio show twenty three years

755
00:40:59.159 --> 00:41:02.599
<v Speaker 3>in Houston, now heard in San Antonio is a few

756
00:41:02.599 --> 00:41:06.920
<v Speaker 3>weeks ago now just starting today Dallas area, Welcome Dallas people.

757
00:41:07.599 --> 00:41:10.920
<v Speaker 3>I also am I home am I still say my

758
00:41:10.920 --> 00:41:12.920
<v Speaker 3>home time's Dalla. My hometown is Dallas, but I do

759
00:41:13.000 --> 00:41:16.039
<v Speaker 3>live in the Houston area. I also contribute to a

760
00:41:16.079 --> 00:41:19.199
<v Speaker 3>TV show. It is called Great Day Houston. It is

761
00:41:19.239 --> 00:41:22.840
<v Speaker 3>on the CBS affiliate Channel eleven KHOU, which is owned

762
00:41:22.840 --> 00:41:26.400
<v Speaker 3>by Tegna, which is also owned by Channel eight wfaas

763
00:41:26.920 --> 00:41:29.800
<v Speaker 3>up in Dallas, which by the way, if you recognize

764
00:41:29.840 --> 00:41:33.360
<v Speaker 3>the voice, if you recognize the face, you recognize the face,

765
00:41:33.599 --> 00:41:36.559
<v Speaker 3>but you couldn't recognize the name. I was also on

766
00:41:36.719 --> 00:41:44.159
<v Speaker 3>Channel eight up in Dallas thirteen twelve eleven, thirteen eleven

767
00:41:44.480 --> 00:41:46.280
<v Speaker 3>ten or eleven years ago. They had just started their

768
00:41:46.280 --> 00:41:50.800
<v Speaker 3>four pm afternoon news and I did a segment with

769
00:41:51.920 --> 00:41:53.440
<v Speaker 3>what was it? I think his name is Jason on

770
00:41:53.519 --> 00:41:55.719
<v Speaker 3>channel like good Dude. There's a lot of good money

771
00:41:55.800 --> 00:41:57.440
<v Speaker 3>or consumer stuff right now. I like him a lot.

772
00:41:57.840 --> 00:42:01.159
<v Speaker 3>So the way I did a technology segment, that was it.

773
00:42:01.199 --> 00:42:03.559
<v Speaker 3>So I still do TV and I contribute to Great

820
00:44:38.760 --> 00:44:43.239

821
00:44:43.280 --> 00:44:48.440
<v Speaker 3>are eleven ninety a m. It's special to me because, oh,

822
00:44:48.519 --> 00:44:51.559
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, it's only my hometown, Big d where

823
00:44:51.599 --> 00:44:53.719
<v Speaker 3>I grew up, where my parents still live, where I

824
00:44:53.760 --> 00:44:55.960
<v Speaker 3>went to high school, or all my buddies. I got

825
00:44:56.039 --> 00:44:59.679
<v Speaker 3>family up there. I'm actually based in Houston area right now,

826
00:44:59.760 --> 00:45:02.239
<v Speaker 3>but I get up to Dallas as much as possible.

827
00:45:02.360 --> 00:45:05.199
<v Speaker 3>You could take the boy out of Dallas, but you

828
00:45:05.280 --> 00:45:09.039
<v Speaker 3>can't take Dallas out the boy. What is up by

829
00:45:09.079 --> 00:45:13.119
<v Speaker 3>the way, i'd really I used to get into this

830
00:45:13.119 --> 00:45:15.519
<v Speaker 3>because I thought was fun. It was good talk show, fudder,

831
00:45:15.559 --> 00:45:17.960
<v Speaker 3>and I've been doing this for twenty This my twenty

832
00:45:18.039 --> 00:45:20.199
<v Speaker 3>third year. By the way, that I'm doing this show,

833
00:45:20.239 --> 00:45:23.920
<v Speaker 3>which is not going to be all about technology. I

834
00:45:23.920 --> 00:45:25.679
<v Speaker 3>am not going to tell you how to fix your computer.

835
00:45:25.960 --> 00:45:28.079
<v Speaker 3>We have a lot of fun, much more fun we'll explain,

836
00:45:28.719 --> 00:45:31.199
<v Speaker 3>but talk right to you. You want to push some buttons,

837
00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:34.840
<v Speaker 3>you want to push people buttons, You want to be polarizing. Now,

838
00:45:34.920 --> 00:45:37.599
<v Speaker 3>I do not and will not talk politics, and don't

839
00:45:37.639 --> 00:45:40.400
<v Speaker 3>worry about that. I do tick people off a little

840
00:45:40.400 --> 00:45:43.360
<v Speaker 3>when it comes to sports because I am from Dallas,

841
00:45:43.360 --> 00:45:46.440
<v Speaker 3>so I am a massive Cowboys fan, and I grew

842
00:45:46.519 --> 00:45:51.320
<v Speaker 3>up in the era of the Tom Landry, the Roger Staubach,

843
00:45:51.400 --> 00:45:54.000
<v Speaker 3>Drew Pearson. I mean I can name the entire you know,

844
00:45:54.280 --> 00:45:57.000
<v Speaker 3>the offense, the defense, in everything. That's what I grew up.

845
00:45:57.000 --> 00:45:59.280
<v Speaker 3>I was a kid with so no matter where I am,

846
00:45:59.320 --> 00:46:02.559
<v Speaker 3>where I go, where I live, you know, I love sports.

847
00:46:02.559 --> 00:46:05.480
<v Speaker 3>I'm absolutely adore football. I'm just always going to be

848
00:46:05.519 --> 00:46:09.480
<v Speaker 3>Cowboy guy. Not that easy living in Houston, not that easy,

849
00:46:10.159 --> 00:46:12.159
<v Speaker 3>you know. I grew up in Dallas and here I go,

850
00:46:12.239 --> 00:46:14.400
<v Speaker 3>I'm pushing buttons, and I apologize. So I grew up

851
00:46:14.440 --> 00:46:18.440
<v Speaker 3>in Dallas and I have still have two uncles and

852
00:46:18.519 --> 00:46:23.800
<v Speaker 3>aunts and cousins in Houston. So we visited Houston semi office.

853
00:46:24.119 --> 00:46:29.880
<v Speaker 3>I knew Houston quite well just from visits and growing

854
00:46:29.960 --> 00:46:33.360
<v Speaker 3>up in Dallas. And this is serious. No one in

855
00:46:33.440 --> 00:46:36.480
<v Speaker 3>Dallas that I knew. I've had any issue with Houston. Actually,

856
00:46:36.599 --> 00:46:39.280
<v Speaker 3>I was jealous of Houston because Houston was a It

857
00:46:39.320 --> 00:46:41.559
<v Speaker 3>is a bigger city, man, how Come I don't live

858
00:46:41.559 --> 00:46:43.599
<v Speaker 3>in the biggest city in this state. I'm in Dallas, Man,

859
00:46:43.639 --> 00:46:48.400
<v Speaker 3>Houston's number weight, It's it's larger, there's more people. I

860
00:46:48.559 --> 00:46:51.400
<v Speaker 3>like coming down visiting Galvis is not too far away.

861
00:46:51.440 --> 00:46:54.679
<v Speaker 3>But you know, just whatever it was, I moved down here.

862
00:46:54.840 --> 00:46:58.880
<v Speaker 3>I've been here thirty years now. Man, I do not

863
00:46:59.039 --> 00:47:02.679
<v Speaker 3>know what Dallas has to pissed so many people off

864
00:47:02.679 --> 00:47:05.400
<v Speaker 3>in Houston. There are not a lot of Houstonians who

865
00:47:05.400 --> 00:47:09.199
<v Speaker 3>like Dallas. And I'm like, what is the deal? Because

866
00:47:09.559 --> 00:47:13.320
<v Speaker 3>the Cowboys have one, not only one championship compared to

867
00:47:13.400 --> 00:47:17.480
<v Speaker 3>zero in Houston and football, but five? Was it because

868
00:47:18.199 --> 00:47:21.239
<v Speaker 3>you're president? That happened to be murdered in Dallas? In

869
00:47:21.280 --> 00:47:23.760
<v Speaker 3>the sixties before I was even born. What is it

870
00:47:23.800 --> 00:47:26.760
<v Speaker 3>about Dallas to check? No one could pinpoint it? No one.

871
00:47:27.199 --> 00:47:32.280
<v Speaker 3>All right, so I'm spreading love. I'm Centerville people, Okay,

872
00:47:32.559 --> 00:47:35.880
<v Speaker 3>I'm right in between the I'm I forty five. Gotta

873
00:47:35.920 --> 00:47:38.920
<v Speaker 3>stop in Centerville, all right, I'm getting some beef jerky.

874
00:47:38.920 --> 00:47:40.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm stopping the left side and stop right so it

875
00:47:40.480 --> 00:47:43.719
<v Speaker 3>doesn't even matter. So then a lot of love. And

876
00:47:43.719 --> 00:47:46.039
<v Speaker 3>by the way, not forgetting you San Antonio either. Hello

877
00:47:46.239 --> 00:47:51.000
<v Speaker 3>Wai which big blow torch? Fifty thousand watts of so

878
00:47:51.039 --> 00:47:53.000
<v Speaker 3>I technically let me think about this. My voice is

879
00:47:53.000 --> 00:47:55.679
<v Speaker 3>now being heard in Mexico because that's how big it is.

898
00:48:49.519 --> 00:48:51.960
<v Speaker 3>big shout out on my Instagram. You actually could see

899
00:48:51.960 --> 00:48:54.719
<v Speaker 3>me inside the studio. By the way, a little bit,

900
00:48:55.599 --> 00:48:58.320
<v Speaker 3>let's get to a little technology here. The photo that

901
00:48:58.400 --> 00:49:00.320
<v Speaker 3>you see or the video that you so if you

902
00:49:00.320 --> 00:49:02.719
<v Speaker 3>go to if you go to Instagram, high tech text

903
00:49:02.760 --> 00:49:05.239
<v Speaker 3>and spell the whole thing out, that's me and studio.

904
00:49:06.000 --> 00:49:08.320
<v Speaker 3>It's beautiful. It's it's the iHeartRadio studio. Happens to be

905
00:49:08.320 --> 00:49:11.599
<v Speaker 3>the one at Houston, doesn't matter. It's amazing how technology works.

906
00:49:11.639 --> 00:49:13.480
<v Speaker 3>I can talk in Houston and it comes out over

907
00:49:13.519 --> 00:49:16.199
<v Speaker 3>the airways and many other cities. So that is me.

908
00:49:16.400 --> 00:49:18.000
<v Speaker 3>That's what it looked like. That is my real hair.

909
00:49:18.079 --> 00:49:20.159
<v Speaker 3>Yes I still have hair at my age and and

910
00:49:20.400 --> 00:49:23.440
<v Speaker 3>that's what I dress like or whatever that photo. Let

911
00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:25.440
<v Speaker 3>me just talk about photos right now because people are

912
00:49:25.440 --> 00:49:28.559
<v Speaker 3>all worried about the data and Big Brother and photos

913
00:49:28.599 --> 00:49:31.239
<v Speaker 3>and what information could they have and don't have found

914
00:49:31.239 --> 00:49:33.559
<v Speaker 3>a website that I want you to play around with

915
00:49:34.199 --> 00:49:37.559
<v Speaker 3>just for you know, snorts and giggles. Let's keep it

916
00:49:37.599 --> 00:49:41.800
<v Speaker 3>clean here because we're over the air. So there was

917
00:49:41.880 --> 00:49:44.360
<v Speaker 3>there was this really smart dude who used to work

918
00:49:44.400 --> 00:49:48.480
<v Speaker 3>for Google, and he realized how powerful the Google search

919
00:49:48.519 --> 00:49:51.480
<v Speaker 3>engines and just the data they have, all right, so

920
00:49:53.079 --> 00:49:57.400
<v Speaker 3>he created He was playing with some artificial intelligence models

921
00:49:57.599 --> 00:50:02.800
<v Speaker 3>about how Google's AI software can how much they can

922
00:50:02.880 --> 00:50:06.320
<v Speaker 3>learn from studying images. So just about a month ago,

923
00:50:06.400 --> 00:50:08.239
<v Speaker 3>this dude is on his own right, he launched a

924
00:50:08.280 --> 00:50:11.679
<v Speaker 3>website kind of a marketing stunt that's designed to turn

925
00:50:12.119 --> 00:50:16.599
<v Speaker 3>Google's technology against itself. What you do is you can

926
00:50:16.760 --> 00:50:19.920
<v Speaker 3>upload any photo to the website. It's then sent to

927
00:50:19.960 --> 00:50:24.719
<v Speaker 3>the Google Cloud. It's a program, and give it about

928
00:50:24.760 --> 00:50:28.519
<v Speaker 3>eight seconds maybe less. What you're gonna see next to

929
00:50:28.559 --> 00:50:32.599
<v Speaker 3>the photo you uploaded is a startingly just startles you.

930
00:50:33.400 --> 00:50:40.159
<v Speaker 3>A thorough three paragraph description of what this artificial intelligence sees.

931
00:50:41.000 --> 00:50:46.320
<v Speaker 3>It is crazy. If you don't understand what artificial intelligence is,

932
00:50:46.920 --> 00:50:49.280
<v Speaker 3>you gotta try this. Here's the website. It is called

933
00:50:49.719 --> 00:50:55.280
<v Speaker 3>they see your Photos dot Com. That's it. They see

934
00:50:55.280 --> 00:50:58.280
<v Speaker 3>your photos dot com. So what I did is I

935
00:50:58.400 --> 00:51:02.440
<v Speaker 3>uploaded a picture of me in the radio studio, same

936
00:51:02.480 --> 00:51:04.320
<v Speaker 3>one that you see a video. That's what it looks like.

937
00:51:04.400 --> 00:51:06.360
<v Speaker 3>So I'm wearing a white shirt, you know, black pants,

938
00:51:07.079 --> 00:51:09.000
<v Speaker 3>a belt, I got a jacket on. I'm standing in

939
00:51:09.000 --> 00:51:11.639
<v Speaker 3>front of all a gear at the microphone. Everything I

940
00:51:11.719 --> 00:51:13.519
<v Speaker 3>uploaded it, and I'm not gonna read you the whole thing.

941
00:51:14.320 --> 00:51:16.880
<v Speaker 3>This Google doesn't know me from Shay Nolla, or does it.

942
00:51:17.639 --> 00:51:20.400
<v Speaker 3>This is what it This is what it wrote, just

943
00:51:20.480 --> 00:51:24.280
<v Speaker 3>from the description quote. The image shows a man standing

944
00:51:24.320 --> 00:51:26.960
<v Speaker 3>in what appears to be a professional radio studio. In

945
00:51:27.000 --> 00:51:29.639
<v Speaker 3>the foreground, he has positioned next to a large audio

946
00:51:29.800 --> 00:51:33.559
<v Speaker 3>mixing console, his hand resting on the controls. Several computer

947
00:51:33.599 --> 00:51:38.039
<v Speaker 3>monitors display various interfaces, possibly related to broadcasting or audio production.

948
00:51:38.559 --> 00:51:42.719
<v Speaker 3>The background features gray walls. A subtle but noticeable detail

949
00:51:43.079 --> 00:51:45.039
<v Speaker 3>is the recess lighting in the ceiling, which adds to

950
00:51:45.119 --> 00:51:50.679
<v Speaker 3>the professional aesthetic. The man appears to be middle aged. Dude,

951
00:51:50.679 --> 00:51:54.519
<v Speaker 3>I'm just a kid, a middle aged of Caucation ethnicity,

952
00:51:54.679 --> 00:51:58.079
<v Speaker 3>and displays a friendly and approachable demeanor. He is well

953
00:51:58.199 --> 00:52:00.639
<v Speaker 3>dressed in a gray jacket over a white shirt. He

954
00:52:00.679 --> 00:52:04.519
<v Speaker 3>looks confident and comfortable in his environment. This is okay.

955
00:52:04.719 --> 00:52:08.519
<v Speaker 3>That's alone blows me away. Get this, this is what

956
00:52:08.559 --> 00:52:11.760
<v Speaker 3>I'm reading here. The picture was taken with the Samsung

957
00:52:11.840 --> 00:52:15.960
<v Speaker 3>Galaxy Z Flip six on Thursday, November twenty first, at

958
00:52:15.960 --> 00:52:20.320
<v Speaker 3>about three forty seven pm. They almost fell out of

959
00:52:20.360 --> 00:52:24.760
<v Speaker 3>my chair when I read that. Unfreaking believable. This is

960
00:52:24.760 --> 00:52:29.199
<v Speaker 3>what artificial intelligenceive just from a photo. I continue. His watch,

961
00:52:29.760 --> 00:52:34.199
<v Speaker 3>subtly visible, appears to be quite expensive and hints at

962
00:52:34.199 --> 00:52:36.960
<v Speaker 3>his economic status. He seems to be actively involved in

963
00:52:37.000 --> 00:52:40.119
<v Speaker 3>his work, and his appearance suggests a successful career in lifestyle.

964
00:52:40.960 --> 00:52:43.599
<v Speaker 3>The image bo sharp details, the texture of his jacket,

965
00:52:43.639 --> 00:52:46.079
<v Speaker 3>the intricate design of the mixing console, blah blah blah,

966
00:52:46.079 --> 00:52:48.159
<v Speaker 3>blah blah blah, it goes on. I'm done with that stuff.

967
00:52:48.760 --> 00:52:52.320
<v Speaker 3>It's crazy. I'm looking this picture and I don't even

968
00:52:52.360 --> 00:52:55.119
<v Speaker 3>see my watch. I do not see my watch. It

969
00:52:55.159 --> 00:52:58.239
<v Speaker 3>may be one smidge of a hair or something sticking

970
00:52:58.239 --> 00:53:02.000
<v Speaker 3>out of watch, and they know it's it's not a

971
00:53:02.000 --> 00:53:05.320
<v Speaker 3>Samsung Wat, it's not a fitness watch. They actually is.

972
00:53:05.400 --> 00:53:07.639
<v Speaker 3>One day, actually was wearing one of my nicer watches.

973
00:53:09.239 --> 00:53:11.519
<v Speaker 3>It's unbelievable. Check it out. But this is the stuff

974
00:53:11.559 --> 00:53:13.480
<v Speaker 3>that I want to get make you aware of. This

975
00:53:13.559 --> 00:53:15.719
<v Speaker 3>is not an endorsement. Google didn't pay me to say this.

976
00:53:15.760 --> 00:53:17.679
<v Speaker 3>I'm just letting you know what is out there I

977
00:53:17.679 --> 00:53:22.199
<v Speaker 3>want to be aware of and how smart this AI is,

978
00:53:22.400 --> 00:53:25.280
<v Speaker 3>but also potentially how scary this website again, it's called

979
00:53:25.320 --> 00:53:29.239
<v Speaker 3>They See Your Photos dot com. And so this middle

980
00:53:29.239 --> 00:53:32.320
<v Speaker 3>age Caucasian ethnicity man with a very nice watch is

981
00:53:32.360 --> 00:53:34.000
<v Speaker 3>getting ready to take his first break of the hour.

982
00:53:34.360 --> 00:53:37.679
<v Speaker 3>Michael Garfield is his name, three four six twenty nine

983
00:53:37.840 --> 00:53:38.559
<v Speaker 3>text It is how you.

984
00:53:38.519 --> 00:54:03.000
<v Speaker 1>Can get to the movie right back, no matter what time.

985
00:54:03.039 --> 00:54:04.840
<v Speaker 3>A little of this idea is we can take you

986
00:54:04.920 --> 00:54:09.199
<v Speaker 3>between in and wherever, certainly all over the state of

987
00:54:09.199 --> 00:54:13.119
<v Speaker 3>Texas right now, long time in Houston, just now in Dallas, Texas.

988
00:54:13.159 --> 00:54:15.760
<v Speaker 3>Starting this week, a few weeks ago, we're in San Antonio.

989

<v Speaker 3>Phone number it is three four six twenty nine texts.

990
00:54:19.199 --> 00:54:21.719

<v Speaker 3>consumer lifestyle guy. If you want questions about where to go,

993
00:54:27.440 --> 00:54:29.239
<v Speaker 3>not going to get politics. You're going to get a

994
00:54:29.280 --> 00:54:31.599
<v Speaker 3>little of you know what, I got two hours to kill.

995
00:54:31.639 --> 00:54:33.440
<v Speaker 3>This is Garf's life. I'm going to tell you what

996
00:54:33.480 --> 00:54:35.400
<v Speaker 3>I like eating, when I like buying, what I don't

997
00:54:35.480 --> 00:54:38.800
<v Speaker 3>like driving, or just hat this and your holiday season's

998
00:54:38.840 --> 00:54:41.119
<v Speaker 3>coming up? What do you want to stay away from?

999
00:54:41.639 --> 00:54:43.960
<v Speaker 3>You want a last minute gift? Last hour, we went

1000
00:54:44.000 --> 00:54:47.920
<v Speaker 3>over some last minute gift ideas that you could get immediately,

1001
00:54:48.000 --> 00:54:50.559
<v Speaker 3>I mean immediately, and those are actually kind of you

1002
00:54:50.599 --> 00:54:52.239
<v Speaker 3>can go online and get some gift cards. But I

1003
00:54:52.239 --> 00:54:54.800
<v Speaker 3>gave you some other ideas other than gift cards. A

1004
00:54:54.920 --> 00:54:57.119
<v Speaker 3>matter of fact, I'm looking at something blinking over here.

1005
00:54:57.599 --> 00:55:00.119
<v Speaker 3>Let's go to the phone. Hello, this is Michael. Who

1006
00:55:00.119 --> 00:55:01.039
<v Speaker 3>am I speaking with?

1007
00:55:01.559 --> 00:55:03.960
<v Speaker 4>Hello Michael, this is Marcos Rodriguez.

1008
00:55:04.000 --> 00:55:04.119
<v Speaker 3>IV.

1009
00:55:04.559 --> 00:55:06.960
<v Speaker 4>Actually been on the show once before, a long time ago.

1010
00:55:07.000 --> 00:55:11.880
<v Speaker 4>I used to work at Torchy's Tacos and you actually

1011
00:55:11.960 --> 00:55:13.840
<v Speaker 4>went to a little restaurant that I was working in

1012
00:55:13.840 --> 00:55:14.800
<v Speaker 4>and had a dish.

1013
00:55:14.840 --> 00:55:15.480
<v Speaker 6>I remember that.

1014
00:55:15.960 --> 00:55:18.239
<v Speaker 4>But I was just wondering, is there a way to

1015
00:55:19.599 --> 00:55:23.519
<v Speaker 4>get in a like a video meeting while the show

1016
00:55:23.599 --> 00:55:26.559
<v Speaker 4>is on air, like like I used to a long

1017
00:55:26.599 --> 00:55:30.320
<v Speaker 4>time ago. Either If there is, maybe I just didn't

1018
00:55:30.320 --> 00:55:33.679
<v Speaker 4>see it on your website. But I'd like to be

1019
00:55:33.719 --> 00:55:34.760
<v Speaker 4>a participant again.

1020
00:55:35.400 --> 00:55:38.199

1022
00:55:42.400 --> 00:55:45.840
<v Speaker 3>I forgot that we used to do. First of all,

1023
00:55:46.079 --> 00:55:49.079
<v Speaker 3>look at Marcos. Does he still work at the Torchies

1024

1027
00:55:56.719 --> 00:55:59.000
<v Speaker 3>That that's what you even heard there. So Marcos used

1028
00:55:59.000 --> 00:56:00.880
<v Speaker 3>to I guess he used to work at Cheesy. Then

1029
00:56:00.880 --> 00:56:02.800
<v Speaker 3>he went to a restaurant and then I had a dish.

1030
00:56:02.920 --> 00:56:07.760
<v Speaker 3>I guess. So Marcos, thank you for calling it what

1031
00:56:07.880 --> 00:56:10.280
<v Speaker 3>he was referring to. He wanted to get see if

1032
00:56:10.280 --> 00:56:14.840
<v Speaker 3>there was a video meeting. I started the show two

1033
00:56:14.920 --> 00:56:18.920
<v Speaker 3>thousand and one, so again it's about twenty three year

1034
00:56:19.000 --> 00:56:23.880
<v Speaker 3>long show. And then I realized that computers were relatively

1035
00:56:23.960 --> 00:56:28.920
<v Speaker 3>new and they were expensive. But video, I mean, Skype

1036
00:56:29.039 --> 00:56:31.920
<v Speaker 3>wasn't even around, and there were no video cameras that

1037
00:56:32.000 --> 00:56:35.440
<v Speaker 3>were really built into computers or laptops. Thing. You would

1038
00:56:35.480 --> 00:56:40.440
<v Speaker 3>have to go get a standalone, you know, video camera

1039
00:56:40.480 --> 00:56:44.079
<v Speaker 3>and plug it in. And this is even before USBC.

1040
00:56:44.320 --> 00:56:46.119
<v Speaker 3>I mean, this is like you know, the PC slot

1041
00:56:46.199 --> 00:56:48.599
<v Speaker 3>or something you do in stall. But what I did

1042
00:56:48.719 --> 00:56:51.880
<v Speaker 3>is I used to I guess that was a bro

1043
00:56:52.039 --> 00:56:55.159
<v Speaker 3>I used to do a video cast, a video meeting.

1044
00:56:57.000 --> 00:56:59.000
<v Speaker 3>It again, I'm not taking any credit. Somebody else and

1045
00:56:59.039 --> 00:57:00.800
<v Speaker 3>then the world may have done this. But first one

1046
00:57:00.800 --> 00:57:02.880
<v Speaker 3>that I knew of on radio where I had a

1047
00:57:02.920 --> 00:57:05.719
<v Speaker 3>video camera in studio pointing at me, and I would

1048
00:57:05.719 --> 00:57:09.159
<v Speaker 3>give out this website and they would log in and

1049
00:57:09.199 --> 00:57:11.760
<v Speaker 3>they could see me, but if they had a video camera,

1050
00:57:12.000 --> 00:57:14.079
<v Speaker 3>we could see them. And so it was this big

1051
00:57:14.159 --> 00:57:17.480
<v Speaker 3>video meeting. You know what, dang it, man, I invited.

1052
00:57:18.000 --> 00:57:21.519
<v Speaker 3>I invented zoom and I didn't even know this. What hell?

1053
00:57:22.480 --> 00:57:23.960
<v Speaker 3>Why am I wasting my time of the weekend. I

1054
00:57:24.000 --> 00:57:27.719
<v Speaker 3>should be totally retired right down. So I actually invented zoom.

1055
00:57:28.280 --> 00:57:29.920
<v Speaker 3>That's what I'm gonna come up with. That's what I

1056
00:57:29.960 --> 00:57:34.760
<v Speaker 3>did to answer your question, buddy, Marcus. No, we don't

1057
00:57:34.760 --> 00:57:38.760
<v Speaker 3>do that anymore. I don't do that anymore. I don't

1058
00:57:39.000 --> 00:57:43.559
<v Speaker 3>We've changed venues. Sometimes I do this. I do this

1059
00:57:43.679 --> 00:57:46.599
<v Speaker 3>radio show a lot of times remotely, and we could

1060
00:57:46.599 --> 00:57:48.159
<v Speaker 3>do this right now. You know, back in the day,

1061
00:57:48.599 --> 00:57:50.960
<v Speaker 3>certainly twenty years ago, certainly ten plus years ago. I

1062
00:57:50.960 --> 00:57:53.760
<v Speaker 3>mean we had to be in our studio. We absolutely

1063
00:57:53.920 --> 00:57:58.320
<v Speaker 3>professional gear, had the producer and everything. We did take

1064
00:57:58.360 --> 00:58:00.719
<v Speaker 3>the show on the road, and well, I'll tell you

1065
00:58:00.760 --> 00:58:03.000
<v Speaker 3>what it was. It was, you know, I'm talking to

1066
00:58:03.000 --> 00:58:05.360
<v Speaker 3>what it was, the whole ring of a row. I mean,

1067
00:58:05.400 --> 00:58:07.800
<v Speaker 3>we had to bring in you know, remote satellite vans.

1068
00:58:08.559 --> 00:58:11.519
<v Speaker 3>Then we had equipment there. I used to broadcast my

1069
00:58:11.519 --> 00:58:13.599
<v Speaker 3>show some really fun places. I have done my show

1070
00:58:13.639 --> 00:58:17.760
<v Speaker 3>from several locations in Mexico. We've gone to resorts in Colorado,

1071
00:58:17.760 --> 00:58:19.280
<v Speaker 3>we were scanned I take it to the beach in

1072
00:58:19.320 --> 00:58:22.960
<v Speaker 3>California at some neat places because we worked for some

1073
00:58:23.000 --> 00:58:26.039
<v Speaker 3>partners to do that. And the technology back then was

1074
00:58:26.079 --> 00:58:28.920
<v Speaker 3>so bad. We're just so old. Let's put it this

1075
00:58:28.960 --> 00:58:31.840
<v Speaker 3>way that it was like a fax machine. So we

1076
00:58:31.880 --> 00:58:35.400
<v Speaker 3>had to actually put a phone cord into this device.

1077
00:58:35.440 --> 00:58:38.119
<v Speaker 3>I used to carry dial a number into the studio

1078
00:58:38.360 --> 00:58:41.840
<v Speaker 3>and it literally used a boad rate like nineteen nine

1079
00:58:41.920 --> 00:58:44.880
<v Speaker 3>hundred bought. I mean you would hear that like a

1080
00:58:44.920 --> 00:58:48.320
<v Speaker 3>fax machine, and then you know I talked back to

1081
00:58:48.360 --> 00:58:50.599
<v Speaker 3>the producer and I couldn't even answer phone calls. You know,

1082
00:58:50.639 --> 00:58:53.079
<v Speaker 3>A lot it was. It was just really crazy. Point

1083
00:58:53.159 --> 00:58:58.119
<v Speaker 3>is today I probably could do this radio show with

1084
00:58:58.159 --> 00:59:02.039
<v Speaker 3>this good audio quality on my cell phone with the

1085
00:59:02.159 --> 00:59:04.440
<v Speaker 3>high end, with a high end microphone and a high

1086
00:59:04.480 --> 00:59:07.519
<v Speaker 3>speed of Wi Fi connection, I probably could. So I

1087
00:59:07.519 --> 00:59:10.519
<v Speaker 3>don't do these video meetings anymore because sometimes I'm in

1088
00:59:10.519 --> 00:59:13.559
<v Speaker 3>the studio. Sometimes they do it for my home studio.

1089
00:59:14.199 --> 00:59:16.599
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes I do it from laying in bed because I'm Jared.

1090
00:59:17.000 --> 00:59:19.119
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes I'll go on the road where I'm traveling, and

1091
00:59:19.159 --> 00:59:20.639
<v Speaker 3>so we we just don't do it. But I'll tell

1092
00:59:20.679 --> 00:59:24.000
<v Speaker 3>you what now that we're in more than just h town.

1093
00:59:24.800 --> 00:59:28.840
<v Speaker 3>Were just Houston, Marcos, now everybody cross Texas. Maybe they

1094
00:59:28.840 --> 00:59:30.760
<v Speaker 3>want to see what's going on. Maybe maybe we'll start

1095
00:59:30.760 --> 00:59:32.599
<v Speaker 3>the video meeting again. So I do. I do. Thank

1096
00:59:32.639 --> 00:59:35.360
<v Speaker 3>you for that. So if you want to get in

1097
00:59:35.559 --> 00:59:38.639
<v Speaker 3>like Marcos does, because you could be famous too with

1098
00:59:38.679 --> 00:59:40.199
<v Speaker 3>your voice on the air. Oh by the way, this

1099
00:59:40.360 --> 00:59:42.679
<v Speaker 3>just did. Uh. Having your voice on air does not

1100
00:59:42.679 --> 00:59:44.719
<v Speaker 3>make you famous. And take that from someone whose voice

1101
00:59:44.760 --> 00:59:48.079
<v Speaker 3>has been on the air for well almost a quarter

1102
00:59:48.119 --> 00:59:51.480
<v Speaker 3>of a century. Right now, three four six two nine

1103
00:59:51.920 --> 00:59:54.199
<v Speaker 3>t e x a N three four six two nine

1104
00:59:54.239 --> 00:59:56.320
<v Speaker 3>t e x a N. That is how you're going

1105
00:59:56.360 --> 00:59:59.280
<v Speaker 3>to get onto here. Uh, this is so up. Let's see.

1106
00:59:59.280 --> 01:00:03.039
<v Speaker 3>Oh it is time for email. What's up with des?

1107
01:00:03.199 --> 01:00:06.840
<v Speaker 3>You've got mail? Darn right, we got mail boy, there's

1108
01:00:06.880 --> 01:00:09.320
<v Speaker 3>a there's an old school for a yog's out there.

1109
01:00:09.360 --> 01:00:12.639
<v Speaker 3>Remember that sound. We do have Mailhi, Michael, heard you

1110
01:00:12.679 --> 01:00:15.519
<v Speaker 3>talking last hour about streaming services. I actually took your

1111
01:00:15.519 --> 01:00:18.559
<v Speaker 3>advice that I discounted how many streaming services we currently have.

1112
01:00:18.679 --> 01:00:20.159
<v Speaker 3>And I just think I yelled at my kids a

1113
01:00:20.199 --> 01:00:22.480
<v Speaker 3>little too loud. They've had Disney Plus and they haven't

1114
01:00:22.480 --> 01:00:25.199
<v Speaker 3>watched the thing in seemingly about six months. We have

1115
01:00:25.480 --> 01:00:29.840
<v Speaker 3>nine different streaming services. No wonder. I never could figure

1116
01:00:29.840 --> 01:00:34.840
<v Speaker 3>out why my bill was so expensive. Appreciate the uh

1117
01:00:34.960 --> 01:00:36.960
<v Speaker 3>excellent hold on, I just lost my place away. I

1118
01:00:36.960 --> 01:00:39.079
<v Speaker 3>appreciate the advice. Thank you very much. By the way,

1119
01:00:39.119 --> 01:00:41.119
<v Speaker 3>which one do you recommend if you could only have one?

1120
01:00:41.159 --> 01:00:44.159
<v Speaker 3>All right? That's from Jeanett. Jeannette is in sant Anton

1121
01:00:44.320 --> 01:00:46.639
<v Speaker 3>North side, San Antonio. Thank you very much for listening.

1122
01:00:47.119 --> 01:00:50.639
<v Speaker 3>She sent me an email. You can too, Michael Garfield

1123
01:00:50.840 --> 01:00:55.760
<v Speaker 3>at iHeartMedia dot com. I want to say I told

1124
01:00:55.800 --> 01:00:59.280
<v Speaker 3>you so, but I freaking told you so. How many

1125
01:00:59.320 --> 01:01:02.559
<v Speaker 3>streaming services do you have. You have to keep account

1126
01:01:02.559 --> 01:01:05.440
<v Speaker 3>of this thing because it's it's like candy. Oh, I'm

1127
01:01:05.440 --> 01:01:08.679
<v Speaker 3>gonna sign up because my first month's free. Oh wait

1128
01:01:08.679 --> 01:01:10.679
<v Speaker 3>a minute, two ninety nine for the first six months.

1129
01:01:11.719 --> 01:01:14.239
<v Speaker 3>Wait ninety nine cents for an entire per month for

1130
01:01:14.239 --> 01:01:17.400
<v Speaker 3>an entire year. How cool was that? And then you

1131
01:01:17.559 --> 01:01:21.440
<v Speaker 3>freaking forget to delete it and cancel your account. People

1132
01:01:21.679 --> 01:01:24.280
<v Speaker 3>don't get you knoggered into that stuff. You don't keep

1133
01:01:24.320 --> 01:01:29.519
<v Speaker 3>account on a regular basis. Let's talk about streaming services. Hey,

1134
01:01:30.519 --> 01:01:34.039
<v Speaker 3>I see where it is. Where in the I'm not

1135
01:01:34.039 --> 01:01:37.719
<v Speaker 3>gonna say. We're in the relatively infancy of streaming services.

1136
01:01:37.800 --> 01:01:39.840
<v Speaker 3>You know, people are cutting the cord and they've been

1137
01:01:39.880 --> 01:01:42.679
<v Speaker 3>around for a while. Remember when Netflix is the big

1138
01:01:42.760 --> 01:01:44.559
<v Speaker 3>daddy of them all. That really is because they were

1139
01:01:44.559 --> 01:01:48.440
<v Speaker 3>one of the first really truly streamers. But do you

1140
01:01:48.519 --> 01:01:51.400
<v Speaker 3>remember when Netflix was not a streamer. Netflix was a

1141
01:01:51.440 --> 01:01:54.440
<v Speaker 3>company that you had to have a subscription to where

1142
01:01:54.440 --> 01:01:58.639
<v Speaker 3>you ordered DVDs. You went online and you ordered what

1143
01:01:58.639 --> 01:02:00.760
<v Speaker 3>what was the max? Three, four or five DVDs per month.

1144
01:02:00.760 --> 01:02:02.440
<v Speaker 3>They would come in a red envelope and they would

1145
01:02:02.480 --> 01:02:04.039
<v Speaker 3>come in your mailbox and you would do it, watch

1146
01:02:04.079 --> 01:02:07.360
<v Speaker 3>a DVD Okay, right now, I've probably lost easily a

1147
01:02:07.440 --> 01:02:09.519
<v Speaker 3>quarter of my audience if because if you were under

1148
01:02:09.559 --> 01:02:11.679
<v Speaker 3>twenty five, maybe thirty, you have no clue what I'm

1149
01:02:11.679 --> 01:02:14.760
<v Speaker 3>talking about. Netflix was not Netflix as you knew it.

1150
01:02:15.320 --> 01:02:17.679
<v Speaker 3>And then read Hastings who found in Netflix. He was brilliant.

1151
01:02:17.679 --> 01:02:20.480
<v Speaker 3>He saw, wait a minute, there's way with high speed internet,

1152
01:02:20.480 --> 01:02:22.840
<v Speaker 3>we actually can create this app on our TV where

1153
01:02:22.840 --> 01:02:27.199
<v Speaker 3>we can now stream at anybody's wishes that their behas

1154
01:02:27.280 --> 01:02:29.880
<v Speaker 3>that when I hit the play button, almost every single

1155
01:02:29.880 --> 01:02:31.519
<v Speaker 3>movie that we have in stock. Let's kill this thing.

1156
01:02:31.559 --> 01:02:34.840
<v Speaker 3>So they killed that business model of mailing the DVDs out.

1157
01:02:35.960 --> 01:02:38.760
<v Speaker 3>So count how many you have. It's not so much

1158
01:02:38.800 --> 01:02:41.840
<v Speaker 3>how many you have. Take maybe make a log of

1159
01:02:42.159 --> 01:02:46.559
<v Speaker 3>how often you watch them? Now to answer your question,

1160
01:02:46.719 --> 01:02:49.480
<v Speaker 3>if I could pick one, which is it? Again, I'm

1161
01:02:49.519 --> 01:02:52.320
<v Speaker 3>going to do what I do. I answer a question

1162
01:02:52.440 --> 01:02:57.800
<v Speaker 3>with a question meaning, what's your life like? Do you

1163
01:02:57.920 --> 01:03:01.679
<v Speaker 3>have young kids who love watching cartoons, who love watching

1164
01:03:01.719 --> 01:03:06.280
<v Speaker 3>the princesses? They're maybe Star Wars fans, Yeah, probably Disney

1165
01:03:06.280 --> 01:03:09.440
<v Speaker 3>pluses for you. Do you like someone who is an

1166
01:03:09.519 --> 01:03:13.639
<v Speaker 3>NFL fan, a live sports fan? Well, guess what for now?

1167
01:03:13.679 --> 01:03:15.559
<v Speaker 3>What in third or fourth year? Right now, and they've

1168
01:03:15.559 --> 01:03:19.159
<v Speaker 3>got a long deal. Amazon, by the way, has the

1169
01:03:19.199 --> 01:03:22.039
<v Speaker 3>streaming service. If you have an annual subscription that you

1170
01:03:22.039 --> 01:03:24.480
<v Speaker 3>pay one hundred and sixty bucks for for Amazon, you

1171
01:03:24.559 --> 01:03:27.679
<v Speaker 3>probably may not even know this breaking news. You've also

1172
01:03:27.760 --> 01:03:30.800
<v Speaker 3>got a streaming service. It's called Prime Video. Well, they

1173
01:03:31.039 --> 01:03:34.800
<v Speaker 3>have a deal with the NFL. They produce an air

1174
01:03:34.960 --> 01:03:36.679
<v Speaker 3>they don't know erics. It's not airing because it's the

1175
01:03:36.800 --> 01:03:40.679
<v Speaker 3>stream a Thursday night football game al Michaels Kirk kurb Street.

1176
01:03:41.039 --> 01:03:44.519
<v Speaker 3>For years, they have done that, that's right, and they've

1177
01:03:44.519 --> 01:03:46.760
<v Speaker 3>got they're starting to do it, and now everybody else

1178
01:03:46.800 --> 01:03:48.880
<v Speaker 3>is getting in the game. Pecock is getting in the game.

1179
01:03:49.000 --> 01:03:53.039
<v Speaker 3>Netflix will have not one but two streaming football games

1180
01:03:53.079 --> 01:03:56.440
<v Speaker 3>on Christmas Day, Houston Texans one of those, if you care,

1181
01:03:56.920 --> 01:04:00.599
<v Speaker 3>and Beyonce's playing the halftime too. There's no answer of

1182
01:04:00.639 --> 01:04:04.480
<v Speaker 3>what's the best streaming service. Best is a very relative term.

1183
01:04:04.559 --> 01:04:07.119
<v Speaker 3>What's the best taco, what's the best inchilada? People? We

1184
01:04:07.119 --> 01:04:09.840
<v Speaker 3>could debate which is actually makes for great radio that

1185
01:04:09.880 --> 01:04:13.840
<v Speaker 3>I'm not gonna do that right now, but I'm trying

1186
01:04:13.840 --> 01:04:15.119
<v Speaker 3>one of the things that I do to I save

1187
01:04:15.119 --> 01:04:17.079
<v Speaker 3>you money. I'm more than happy to tell you to

1188
01:04:17.079 --> 01:04:18.760
<v Speaker 3>go get a seventy five inch TV and go get

1189
01:04:18.760 --> 01:04:20.280
<v Speaker 3>a Sony bit. You know what, you're gonna be paying

1190
01:04:20.320 --> 01:04:24.280
<v Speaker 3>for the nose for that stuff. I rarely recommend products

1191
01:04:24.320 --> 01:04:26.719
<v Speaker 3>that are very, very expensive. I'm gonna take a product

1192
01:04:27.000 --> 01:04:30.000
<v Speaker 3>that I've tested that I know has a good brand name,

1193
01:04:30.039 --> 01:04:32.000
<v Speaker 3>maybe a good warranty behind it, and I'm gonna tell

1194
01:04:32.039 --> 01:04:34.360
<v Speaker 3>you an alternative product that's gonna save you money and

1195
01:04:34.400 --> 01:04:37.039
<v Speaker 3>it's gonna work just as well. That's just kind of

1196
01:04:37.039 --> 01:04:39.000
<v Speaker 3>the history. If you are new to this radio show,

1197
01:04:39.039 --> 01:04:41.039
<v Speaker 3>which is called the High Tech Texan by the way,

1198
01:04:41.119 --> 01:04:45.760
<v Speaker 3>best Taco, tell me right now three four six nine

1199

<v Speaker 3>text and we're gonna be right back on the High

1200
01:04:47.199 --> 01:05:10.760
<v Speaker 3>Tech Texting Show. It is Garb. Yeah, this is about

1201
01:05:10.760 --> 01:05:13.599
<v Speaker 3>thirty more minutes left the show. So don't go anywhere.

1204
01:05:19.239 --> 01:05:21.920
<v Speaker 3>to the show while you're sitting at your at your computer,

01:05:21.960 --> 01:05:26.239
<v Speaker 3>your laptop or your phone shopping away. You're thinking, oh,

1206
01:05:26.239 --> 01:05:29.000
<v Speaker 3>should I get this version or this star, this model,

1207
01:05:29.000 --> 01:05:31.840
<v Speaker 3>and you're gonna say, hold on, let me call Garth,

1208
01:05:31.920 --> 01:05:33.800
<v Speaker 3>let me see what's up with him. And you can

1209
01:05:33.840 --> 01:05:37.199
<v Speaker 3>do that quite simply right now three four six twenty

1210
01:05:37.440 --> 01:05:41.119
<v Speaker 3>nine Texan three four six two nine t e x eight.

1211
01:05:41.199 --> 01:05:43.360
<v Speaker 3>And it does not have to be in the world

1212
01:05:43.360 --> 01:05:46.039
<v Speaker 3>of technology. Nope, you can ask me. Hey, listen, Michael,

<v Speaker 3>Is there is there a streaming show that you should watch, which,

1216
01:05:52.559 --> 01:05:54.800
<v Speaker 3>by the way, I don't see a lot of movies.

1217
01:05:54.960 --> 01:05:56.760
<v Speaker 3>This isn't, oh by the way, and then this is

1218
01:05:56.840 --> 01:05:58.440
<v Speaker 3>I think I kind of run this show like this.

1219
01:05:58.639 --> 01:06:02.039
<v Speaker 3>Oh by the way, I have seen in twenty twenty

1220
01:06:02.119 --> 01:06:09.079
<v Speaker 3>four in a movie theater three movies two two earth two,

1221
01:06:09.280 --> 01:06:11.760
<v Speaker 3>I don't even know. I get invited to momost every

1222
01:06:11.760 --> 01:06:14.599

1223
01:06:14.679 --> 01:06:16.880
<v Speaker 3>to a lot of them. I don't know why. I mean,

1224
01:06:16.960 --> 01:06:20.440
<v Speaker 3>unless it has Adam Sandler, which Sandler doesn't the least

1225
01:06:20.440 --> 01:06:22.599
<v Speaker 3>movies in theaters anymore because he goes straight to Netflix.

1226
01:06:23.679 --> 01:06:26.159
<v Speaker 3>Will Ferrell, I mean, just to give you an idea

1227
01:06:26.199 --> 01:06:27.599
<v Speaker 3>of like who I am for all you new listeners

<v Speaker 3>do it this time of year. Absolutely love watching the

1231

1238
01:06:56.800 --> 01:06:59.679
<v Speaker 3>invited about a week ago, three weeks before it's released.

1239
01:07:00.559 --> 01:07:05.079
<v Speaker 3>I saw that Bob Dylan movie with Timo's Timothy shallow

1240
01:07:05.079 --> 01:07:08.679
<v Speaker 3>May a complete unknown that's the name of it. All right,

1241
01:07:08.880 --> 01:07:11.400
<v Speaker 3>let me help you out right now. I'm not a

1242
01:07:11.440 --> 01:07:15.840
<v Speaker 3>fan of Bob Dylan. Never liked his music. Maybe I

1243
01:07:15.920 --> 01:07:18.639
<v Speaker 3>know of like two songs he sang. I just I

1244
01:07:18.800 --> 01:07:21.079
<v Speaker 3>don't like folk music, not me, uh huh. If it

1245
01:07:21.079 --> 01:07:24.079
<v Speaker 3>ain't eighties, if it ain't out rock, sorry, people just

1246
01:07:24.119 --> 01:07:27.360
<v Speaker 3>not doing it. Didn't know much about Timothy shall May.

1247
01:07:27.599 --> 01:07:31.880
<v Speaker 3>In fact, maybe I've seen a movie I think he was.

1248
01:07:31.880 --> 01:07:35.599
<v Speaker 3>Wasn't he an Interstellar? He was really young and interstellar

1249
01:07:36.800 --> 01:07:38.800
<v Speaker 3>The McConaughey's Kid or something like that. I don't even

1250
01:07:38.800 --> 01:07:40.920
<v Speaker 3>know I've ever even seen it, Like a real shallow

1251
01:07:40.960 --> 01:07:42.679
<v Speaker 3>May movie. Didn't see that. Willie wonk a thing on

1252
01:07:43.559 --> 01:07:47.440
<v Speaker 3>let me help you out unsolicited. Disney's not paying me

1253
01:07:47.519 --> 01:07:49.719
<v Speaker 3>to talk about this or endorse it, which I wish

1254
01:07:49.760 --> 01:07:54.039
<v Speaker 3>they would. Absolutely one of the best movies I've seen

1255
01:07:54.039 --> 01:07:58.320
<v Speaker 3>in years. What Timothy shallow May did to transform himself

1256
01:07:58.360 --> 01:08:04.199
<v Speaker 3>into BA into Bob Dylan was amazing. Yes, I know

1257
01:08:04.239 --> 01:08:08.519
<v Speaker 3>what Dylan looks like. Yes, I'm gonna backtrack. I have

1258
01:08:08.679 --> 01:08:12.840
<v Speaker 3>heard well, no, I didn't hear. My favorite Dylan song

1259
01:08:12.960 --> 01:08:15.280
<v Speaker 3>is not even a song. It's when he sang the

1260
01:08:15.360 --> 01:08:21.560
<v Speaker 3>lines we are the wow, oh the j That's about it.

1261
01:08:22.119 --> 01:08:24.399
<v Speaker 3>I know him from watching We Have the World video

1262
01:08:24.560 --> 01:08:28.479
<v Speaker 3>for all those times back in the eighties. Jamithy shallow

1263
01:08:28.520 --> 01:08:34.079
<v Speaker 3>May is It's uncanny. It's uncanny, absolutely has to be

1264
01:08:34.159 --> 01:08:36.680
<v Speaker 3>should be nominated for an Oscar. I can't say he's

1265
01:08:36.680 --> 01:08:38.720
<v Speaker 3>gonna win it because I again, I've seen what won

1266
01:08:38.760 --> 01:08:40.640
<v Speaker 3>two three movies this entire years or whatever. It is.

1267
01:08:40.880 --> 01:08:44.079
<v Speaker 3>It's great. A lot of music, a lot of Bob

1268
01:08:44.119 --> 01:08:48.720
<v Speaker 3>Dylan music which I didn't even know it any odd stuff.

1269
01:08:49.079 --> 01:08:51.840
<v Speaker 3>But it was a compelling story. The director was great.

1270
01:08:51.960 --> 01:08:53.880
<v Speaker 3>Was it was it? James Mangold, I forget who was

1271
01:08:54.000 --> 01:08:56.880
<v Speaker 3>he was the guy who did dub the Johnny Cash

1272
01:08:56.920 --> 01:09:02.239
<v Speaker 3>movie walk whatever that Well, I think again, mister movie here.

1273
01:09:02.640 --> 01:09:04.479
<v Speaker 3>But it was really good. So go see that on

1274
01:09:04.680 --> 01:09:07.399
<v Speaker 3>Christmas Day because that's what it comes out. What do

1275
01:09:07.439 --> 01:09:10.319
<v Speaker 3>I watch streaming wise? Tell exactly what do I streaming wise?

1276
01:09:11.000 --> 01:09:14.800
<v Speaker 3>It's on Max, not HBO, but it's on Max. I

1277
01:09:14.880 --> 01:09:17.239
<v Speaker 3>just told you I like yacht rock music. There's a

1278
01:09:17.319 --> 01:09:21.840
<v Speaker 3>yacht rock documentary that came out one week ago. I

1279
01:09:21.960 --> 01:09:24.399
<v Speaker 3>watched it three times in the first five days it

1280
01:09:24.479 --> 01:09:27.920
<v Speaker 3>was out. It was good and supposedly it's gonna be

1281
01:09:27.960 --> 01:09:30.119
<v Speaker 3>like a whole series this stuff, but it's just one episode.

1282
01:09:30.159 --> 01:09:32.079
<v Speaker 3>It's about an hour and a half hour, forty whatever

1283
01:09:32.159 --> 01:09:35.279
<v Speaker 3>minutes long. It was good. And if you are anything

1284
01:09:35.359 --> 01:09:38.960
<v Speaker 3>near my age, if maybe maybe you're middle aged, apparently

1285
01:09:39.039 --> 01:09:42.159
<v Speaker 3>that's what Google AI calls me. I don't know. But

1286
01:09:42.439 --> 01:09:44.920
<v Speaker 3>if you were anywhere around the late seventies early eighties

1287
01:09:45.479 --> 01:09:47.439
<v Speaker 3>and you like it, and you listen to yacht rock

1288
01:09:47.520 --> 01:09:51.199
<v Speaker 3>on one of these satellite channels, which you shouldn't because

1289
01:09:51.199 --> 01:09:53.720
<v Speaker 3>you should be listening to this radio station right now,

1290
01:09:54.239 --> 01:09:58.279
<v Speaker 3>it was good. They had San Antonio Zone. Christopher Cross,

1291
01:09:58.279 --> 01:10:00.279
<v Speaker 3>he was a major part of it actually is daughter

1292
01:10:00.359 --> 01:10:03.399
<v Speaker 3>was one of the producers, Michael McDonald, But it is

1293
01:10:03.560 --> 01:10:07.479
<v Speaker 3>just it was good if that was your jam back

1294
01:10:07.520 --> 01:10:09.600
<v Speaker 3>in the days. They really did a really nice job

1295
01:10:09.720 --> 01:10:14.199
<v Speaker 3>of intertwining of how yacht rock, why it was called

1296
01:10:14.279 --> 01:10:19.479
<v Speaker 3>yacht rock, what's the sound? And it's amazing how all

1297
01:10:19.520 --> 01:10:22.479
<v Speaker 3>of the major yacht rock artists that you could think

1298
01:10:22.520 --> 01:10:28.720
<v Speaker 3>of were interconnected, starting with Michael McDonald, Steely, Dan, Christopher Cross,

1299
01:10:29.159 --> 01:10:32.800
<v Speaker 3>Kenny Loggins. I mean, I know music trivia. I mean,

1300
01:10:32.800 --> 01:10:36.640
<v Speaker 3>I am stupid eighties guy. It's very tough to stump

1301
01:10:36.640 --> 01:10:39.159
<v Speaker 3>me on anything eddies music. I actually found out a

1302
01:10:39.159 --> 01:10:41.920
<v Speaker 3>lot of stuff how everything was intertwined, not only just

1303
01:10:43.159 --> 01:10:46.880
<v Speaker 3>behind the microphone, but in the studio. The same producers

1304
01:10:47.239 --> 01:10:51.640
<v Speaker 3>Toto Hotel one of the greatest eighties albums of all time.

1305
01:10:51.680 --> 01:10:56.159
<v Speaker 3>Toto for did the Porco Brothers, David Page, they played

1306
01:10:56.159 --> 01:10:59.760
<v Speaker 3>on almost every single yacht rock autumn album for everybody else.

1307
01:11:00.000 --> 01:11:02.319
<v Speaker 3>Wait there you go, so got to go see Go

1308
01:11:02.319 --> 01:11:05.920
<v Speaker 3>watch yacht Rock for another two weeks on Max until

1309
01:11:06.119 --> 01:11:08.000
<v Speaker 3>the Bob Dylan movie comes out, and then you can

1310
01:11:08.000 --> 01:11:09.840
<v Speaker 3>thank me later. And then we got to start the

1311
01:11:09.840 --> 01:11:12.600
<v Speaker 3>whole year over again. In twenty five as we continue

1312
01:11:12.680 --> 01:11:15.439
<v Speaker 3>the what's it called the High Tech tex Show? That

1313
01:11:15.560 --> 01:11:20.039
<v Speaker 3>is me and Michael Garfield. I am about to less

01:11:20.039 --> 01:11:22.279
<v Speaker 3>than a month out. I will be in Las Vegas,

1315
01:11:22.319 --> 01:11:25.079
<v Speaker 3>speaking of streaming and doing the show and broadcasting show live.

1316
01:11:25.439 --> 01:11:28.239
<v Speaker 3>I will be doing this show from Las Vegas, one

1317
01:11:28.239 --> 01:11:30.119
<v Speaker 3>of my favorite cities in the world, because that is

1318
01:11:30.159 --> 01:11:33.159
<v Speaker 3>the site of the annual Consumer Electronics Show, which is

1319
01:11:33.239 --> 01:11:36.960
<v Speaker 3>no longer called the Consumer Electronic Show, it is just

1320
01:11:37.000 --> 01:11:41.439
<v Speaker 3>simply abbreviated as CES. This will be by twenty second,

1321
01:11:41.439 --> 01:11:46.079
<v Speaker 3>twenty third year. The kind folks who put on that massive,

1322
01:11:46.279 --> 01:11:50.000
<v Speaker 3>massive technology electronic convention, they build a radio studio for

1323
01:11:50.079 --> 01:11:52.880
<v Speaker 3>me right on the Las Vegas convention show floor. I

1324
01:11:52.920 --> 01:11:56.680
<v Speaker 3>have guests on and good for you people. I bring

1325
01:11:56.680 --> 01:12:00.640
<v Speaker 3>an extra suitcase two because of all the companies I

1326
01:12:00.680 --> 01:12:02.600
<v Speaker 3>meet and the parties I go to and they give

1327
01:12:02.600 --> 01:12:05.079
<v Speaker 3>out samples, I say, hey, can I get one to

1328
01:12:05.079 --> 01:12:07.000
<v Speaker 3>give out on air? Can I give one to give

1329
01:12:07.000 --> 01:12:10.800
<v Speaker 3>out on my Instagram? High Tech Texan? Yeah? So January

1330
01:12:10.960 --> 01:12:13.800
<v Speaker 3>is uh, it's me giving gifts to you.

1331
01:12:13.800 --> 01:12:14.000
<v Speaker 6>You know.

1332
01:12:14.640 --> 01:12:17.079
<v Speaker 3>I certainly don't play Santa Claus. Sometimes I'll do the

1333
01:12:17.079 --> 01:12:19.960
<v Speaker 3>Hanaka hairy thing, but January. It is all high tech Texan.

1334
01:12:20.279 --> 01:12:23.479
<v Speaker 3>It's gift exchange time. Well, I give you the gift

1335
01:12:23.520 --> 01:12:28.199
<v Speaker 3>of beautiful content, lovely voice, a lot of hair, and

1336
01:12:28.600 --> 01:12:31.159
<v Speaker 3>some gifts that I bring back. So just kind of

1337
01:12:31.159 --> 01:12:35.119
<v Speaker 3>giving you the annual play by play of what I did. Generally,

1338
01:12:35.640 --> 01:12:40.960
<v Speaker 3>December January are my two biggest busiest months. And I

1339
01:12:41.000 --> 01:12:43.880
<v Speaker 3>cannot stand in summer. Hate summer. I'm a winter. I'm

1340
01:12:43.920 --> 01:12:47.079
<v Speaker 3>a runner. I like staying going outside, and so it

1341
01:12:47.640 --> 01:12:52.359
<v Speaker 3>keeps me rolling, absolutely keeps me rolling. This was let's

1342
01:12:52.359 --> 01:12:54.199
<v Speaker 3>see how much time I've heard? You got about two

1343
01:12:54.239 --> 01:12:56.119
<v Speaker 3>or three minutes? Do I want to start this right now?

1344
01:12:56.319 --> 01:12:58.199
<v Speaker 3>Did I mention this last week? Or so? I saw this?

1345
01:12:58.960 --> 01:13:01.119
<v Speaker 3>Somebody we were to talk about cell phones and you know,

1346
01:13:01.159 --> 01:13:03.079
<v Speaker 3>Michael was the best cell phone to get. And again

1347
01:13:03.199 --> 01:13:06.119
<v Speaker 3>it's I again. I'm gonna answer it with it. Answer

1348
01:13:06.159 --> 01:13:08.119
<v Speaker 3>your question with a question. You know, what do you want?

1349
01:13:08.239 --> 01:13:11.159
<v Speaker 3>Are you an iOS person? You're an android that opens

1350
01:13:11.199 --> 01:13:14.000
<v Speaker 3>up a whole new thing. I say, what do you

1351
01:13:14.119 --> 01:13:15.840
<v Speaker 3>when you get a new cell phone? I ask people

1352
01:13:15.840 --> 01:13:17.920
<v Speaker 3>what do they do with their old ones? What do

1353
01:13:18.000 --> 01:13:21.479
<v Speaker 3>you do? And ask yourselves this. You don't need a

1354
01:13:21.520 --> 01:13:23.760
<v Speaker 3>call in, but you could or you could put it

1355
01:13:23.760 --> 01:13:25.880
<v Speaker 3>on X or a blue sky and or respond to me,

1356
01:13:26.520 --> 01:13:28.640
<v Speaker 3>what do you do with your old smartphone? Because odds

1357
01:13:28.680 --> 01:13:32.520
<v Speaker 3>are we've had smartphones swell over twenty twenty five years.

1358
01:13:33.039 --> 01:13:34.640
<v Speaker 3>When you get a new one, and I know you

1359
01:13:34.640 --> 01:13:36.479
<v Speaker 3>do get a new one, what do you do? You

1360
01:13:36.479 --> 01:13:38.439
<v Speaker 3>throw it away? Do you give it to your spouse,

1361
01:13:38.479 --> 01:13:40.239
<v Speaker 3>do you give it to your kids? Do you sell

1362
01:13:40.319 --> 01:13:43.479
<v Speaker 3>it because you can't make some money? You probably if

1363
01:13:43.479 --> 01:13:45.119
<v Speaker 3>you don't do anything but put it in a drawer,

1364
01:13:45.399 --> 01:13:48.680
<v Speaker 3>you're sitting on some cash. People, as long as it's

1365
01:13:48.720 --> 01:13:52.760
<v Speaker 3>in really good condition, it's not chip, there's no scratches.

1366
01:13:53.680 --> 01:13:55.399
<v Speaker 3>You can get some bucks, you can get some rebates

1367
01:13:55.479 --> 01:14:00.760
<v Speaker 3>or something. Nearly seventy percent of American smartphone owners said

1368
01:14:00.800 --> 01:14:04.319
<v Speaker 3>they've never sold their phone, so they do something with it?

1369
01:14:04.880 --> 01:14:07.119
<v Speaker 3>All right, what do you do with it? Do you

1370
01:14:07.119 --> 01:14:08.760
<v Speaker 3>give it away? I'd love to actually hear from you.

1371
01:14:08.760 --> 01:14:10.479
<v Speaker 3>Go to high tech text and h I G H

1372
01:14:10.560 --> 01:14:12.520
<v Speaker 3>T E C h T E x A N and

1373
01:14:12.640 --> 01:14:15.640
<v Speaker 3>give me a poll here on X or blue Sky,

1374
01:14:15.800 --> 01:14:19.800
<v Speaker 3>or just respond to something on my Instagram over here.

1375
01:14:20.760 --> 01:14:24.920
<v Speaker 3>But why don't people hold on to their smartphones? Why

1376
01:14:24.960 --> 01:14:27.560
<v Speaker 3>don't they sell them? Because this holiday season. It's a

1377
01:14:27.560 --> 01:14:30.319
<v Speaker 3>good time for people looking for cell phones, and it

1378
01:14:30.359 --> 01:14:34.880
<v Speaker 3>could be a smart time to sell. There are companies

1379
01:14:34.880 --> 01:14:37.760
<v Speaker 3>out there who will buy it from you. Maybe they'll

1380
01:14:37.760 --> 01:14:39.439
<v Speaker 3>give you cash, maybe they'll give it to you in

1381
01:14:39.479 --> 01:14:41.840
<v Speaker 3>gift cards. I remember a Target or Best Buy they

1382
01:14:41.880 --> 01:14:43.760
<v Speaker 3>had deals. You can go drop off a cell phone

1383
01:14:43.760 --> 01:14:46.399
<v Speaker 3>and they'll look at the condition. Is it an excellent condition,

1384
01:14:46.520 --> 01:14:49.279
<v Speaker 3>is it good condition? Or does it even turn on?

1385
01:14:49.640 --> 01:14:51.760
<v Speaker 3>He'll give you on the spot a gift card for

1386
01:14:51.880 --> 01:14:54.479
<v Speaker 3>that store. I prefer it would have the cash. Also,

1387
01:14:54.720 --> 01:14:56.119
<v Speaker 3>you can put it on an eBay if you want to.

1388
01:14:56.239 --> 01:14:59.880
<v Speaker 3>The point is we had these discussions, but a little

1389
01:15:00.279 --> 01:15:03.520
<v Speaker 3>for you. Should you sell your old smartphone? Should you

1390
01:15:03.560 --> 01:15:07.239
<v Speaker 3>give it away? Number one? I would recommend this. Make

1391
01:15:07.279 --> 01:15:09.720
<v Speaker 3>sure you back it up. Make sure you either put

1392
01:15:09.760 --> 01:15:13.520
<v Speaker 3>stuff that's on that phone in your cloud or connect

1393
01:15:13.560 --> 01:15:15.680
<v Speaker 3>it the old school way. Put a freaking cord in

1394
01:15:15.760 --> 01:15:17.960
<v Speaker 3>it and put it into your computer too, and then

1395
01:15:18.039 --> 01:15:21.399
<v Speaker 3>download or upload everything from your phone onto your computer,

1396
01:15:22.000 --> 01:15:25.119
<v Speaker 3>every video you've made, every photo you made, all your

1397
01:15:25.239 --> 01:15:28.760
<v Speaker 3>contacts and all your other emails things. But at that point,

1398
01:15:28.880 --> 01:15:31.439
<v Speaker 3>before you sell it, before you give it away, you

1399
01:15:31.520 --> 01:15:36.399
<v Speaker 3>go to your settings and you put reset to factory settings.

1400
01:15:36.680 --> 01:15:41.079
<v Speaker 3>You wipe that thing clean. Don't ever give your phone away.

1401
01:15:41.640 --> 01:15:43.920
<v Speaker 3>I can't think of an instance where you just say, hey, man,

1402
01:15:44.039 --> 01:15:46.159
<v Speaker 3>here I'm gonna see how much. Here's five hundred ors

1403
01:15:46.159 --> 01:15:49.439
<v Speaker 3>a thousand bucks. Hey hey, if you're a husband, you

1404
01:15:49.600 --> 01:15:51.640
<v Speaker 3>really probably want it. Would you pretty much want to

1405
01:15:51.720 --> 01:15:53.039
<v Speaker 3>raise that when you give it to the wife. And

1406
01:15:53.039 --> 01:15:54.720
<v Speaker 3>if you're a wifey, you probably want to raise it

1407
01:15:54.720 --> 01:15:56.960
<v Speaker 3>before you give it to your husband. Certainly your kids,

1408
01:15:57.039 --> 01:16:00.239
<v Speaker 3>you don't know what's on there. Wipe it clean because

1409
01:16:00.239 --> 01:16:02.520
<v Speaker 3>they can get your information. But just don't sit there

1410
01:16:02.520 --> 01:16:04.199
<v Speaker 3>and try to delete everything. You know what, Just do

1411
01:16:04.239 --> 01:16:08.159
<v Speaker 3>a freaking factory reset. Set it to where it's brand new,

1412
01:16:08.600 --> 01:16:10.640
<v Speaker 3>like it's coming out of the box. A little tip

1413
01:16:10.680 --> 01:16:12.039
<v Speaker 3>from me to you. I just thought that was an

1414
01:16:12.039 --> 01:16:14.399
<v Speaker 3>interesting We've got one more segment, so you can't go anywhere.

1415
01:16:14.439 --> 01:16:16.840
<v Speaker 3>You better hold on. Well, we zip up the show.

1416
01:16:16.880 --> 01:16:20.079
<v Speaker 3>The first show ever heard terrestrially in the Dallas area.

1417
01:16:20.119 --> 01:16:23.520
<v Speaker 3>As we welcome KFX are eleven ninety as a new affiliate.

1418
01:16:23.560 --> 01:16:26.600
<v Speaker 3>It is Michael Garfield, Dallas Boy himself. I'll live it

1419
01:16:26.640 --> 01:16:50.640
<v Speaker 3>in h down. It's not I take texting show. Yes,

1420
01:16:51.000 --> 01:16:54.359
<v Speaker 3>it's about seven or eight minutes eleven and this edition

1421
01:16:54.840 --> 01:16:56.920
<v Speaker 3>of the high tech texting show What are We down?

1422
01:16:56.960 --> 01:17:00.840
<v Speaker 3>This is the we only have two more shows left

1423
01:17:00.840 --> 01:17:04.720
<v Speaker 3>this year? Are you kidding me? You know what? I hate? Oh?

1424
01:17:04.840 --> 01:17:08.279
<v Speaker 3>This year has gone by so fast, though, I can't

1425
01:17:08.319 --> 01:17:11.359
<v Speaker 3>believe it's a shut up. No, it did not go

1426
01:17:11.399 --> 01:17:14.000
<v Speaker 3>by fast, because the last I checked, it was three

1427
01:17:14.119 --> 01:17:17.520
<v Speaker 3>hundred and sixty six years actually days of the year,

1428
01:17:17.560 --> 01:17:20.079
<v Speaker 3>actually this year, and it was it was. It was

1429
01:17:20.119 --> 01:17:24.760
<v Speaker 3>a long year. It's it was just as long as

1430
01:17:24.800 --> 01:17:25.399
<v Speaker 3>anything else.

1431
01:17:25.520 --> 01:17:25.720
<v Speaker 6>Man.

1432
01:17:25.800 --> 01:17:31.039
<v Speaker 3>It was a long, hot, nasty summer. But you know what,

1433
01:17:31.039 --> 01:17:33.239
<v Speaker 3>We're gonna start again and it's just gonna go just

1434
01:17:33.239 --> 01:17:36.560
<v Speaker 3>as fast it was last year. I say it just

1435
01:17:36.600 --> 01:17:39.720
<v Speaker 3>because you know, I'm excited that the show's almost over.

1436
01:17:40.319 --> 01:17:42.880
<v Speaker 3>I get to take a little break, not too intensive

1437
01:17:42.920 --> 01:17:46.960
<v Speaker 3>college football weekend. This week got Army Navy, I got

1438
01:17:46.960 --> 01:17:51.119
<v Speaker 3>my long horns are off all of the stupid conference

1439
01:17:51.199 --> 01:17:54.800
<v Speaker 3>championships which at some point our needless and will not

1440
01:17:54.840 --> 01:17:58.840
<v Speaker 3>be played. Those were last week. Horns played next week.

1441
01:17:59.680 --> 01:18:01.640
<v Speaker 3>So if you're going down to Austin and you got

1442
01:18:01.680 --> 01:18:03.520
<v Speaker 3>an extra ticket, I am your boy, because I could

1443
01:18:03.560 --> 01:18:06.359
<v Speaker 3>do my show from Austin. Michael Garfield is the name.

1444
01:18:06.720 --> 01:18:08.920
<v Speaker 3>This is the High Tech Texan Show. And if you

1445
01:18:08.960 --> 01:18:12.439
<v Speaker 3>break it down, I proved something to you. I said this,

1446
01:18:13.000 --> 01:18:15.600
<v Speaker 3>and we do this because every week we have new listeners.

1447
01:18:15.800 --> 01:18:18.479
<v Speaker 3>In this past few weeks, we've got a lot of

1448
01:18:18.520 --> 01:18:21.079
<v Speaker 3>new listeners, not just in Houston, where we've been on

1449
01:18:21.239 --> 01:18:24.399

1450
01:18:24.479 --> 01:18:28.159
<v Speaker 3>we launched in San Antonio, and today our very first

01:18:54.760 --> 01:18:56.760
<v Speaker 3>By the way, I don't don't want to forget Houston.

1460
01:18:57.680 --> 01:18:59.640
<v Speaker 3>We've been on in Houston twenty three years, actually on

1461
01:18:59.720 --> 01:19:02.359
<v Speaker 3>kp year see Radio. A lot of Houston companies that

1462
01:19:02.399 --> 01:19:05.119
<v Speaker 3>I work with and endorse, one of which is US

1463
01:19:05.199 --> 01:19:08.520
<v Speaker 3>Coins and Jewelry. And if you are this man, these

1464
01:19:08.720 --> 01:19:11.279
<v Speaker 3>these guys are so busy. I wanted to get Kenny Duncan.

1465
01:19:11.560 --> 01:19:16.359
<v Speaker 3>Kenny runs US Coins and Jewelry second generation. The dude

1466
01:19:16.359 --> 01:19:17.920
<v Speaker 3>doesn't even have time to take a sip of water.

1467
01:19:17.960 --> 01:19:20.119
<v Speaker 3>I know they're listening to my show right now. And

1468
01:19:20.159 --> 01:19:23.960
<v Speaker 3>they're massive showroom in Houston. It is on it Katie

1469
01:19:24.000 --> 01:19:28.319
<v Speaker 3>Freeway right at Voss Voss going there. They are open

1470
01:19:28.399 --> 01:19:30.760
<v Speaker 3>on the Saturdays as we do the show. They are

1471
01:19:30.800 --> 01:19:34.159
<v Speaker 3>closed on Sundays. Apparently Chick fil A stole their idea

1472
01:19:34.239 --> 01:19:36.960
<v Speaker 3>and they do give their employees a breakoff. But if

1473
01:19:36.960 --> 01:19:39.520
<v Speaker 3>you're looking to if you want to sell some quick

1474
01:19:39.840 --> 01:19:43.159
<v Speaker 3>collect coins that you don't need to live in Houston alone.

1475
01:19:43.159 --> 01:19:47.920
<v Speaker 3>They do it online. They're totally trustworthy, trustworthy on steroids.

1476
01:19:48.079 --> 01:19:49.880
<v Speaker 3>These guys are just top notch. One of the best

1477
01:19:50.760 --> 01:19:54.680
<v Speaker 3>new mismatists, which means a coin collector in the country.

1478
01:19:55.119 --> 01:19:57.760
<v Speaker 3>I've traveled with him. I see how he buys coins,

1479
01:19:57.760 --> 01:20:02.439
<v Speaker 3>how he sells coins. They also do trading for sports cards, collectibles,

1480
01:20:02.560 --> 01:20:04.800
<v Speaker 3>but they also give back. I say this because US

1481
01:20:04.840 --> 01:20:07.520
<v Speaker 3>Coins and Jewelry. They are having a toy drive which

1482

1506
01:21:30.039 --> 01:21:31.840
<v Speaker 3>but I really don't care about them, nor do they

1507
01:21:31.840 --> 01:21:36.560
<v Speaker 3>care about me. iHeart Radio, iHeart Media does an unbelievable

1508

<v Speaker 3>job of working with Saint Jude's Hospital, Saint Jude's for

1509
01:21:39.479 --> 01:21:44.199
<v Speaker 3>Children's Hospital every single year. So much so. I know

1510
01:21:45.199 --> 01:21:48.119
<v Speaker 3>the regional president of all of iHeartMedia, and you can

1511
01:21:48.159 --> 01:21:50.199
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna say his name because he's long been my boss.

1512
01:21:50.239 --> 01:21:53.000
<v Speaker 3>His name is Eddie Martini. He oversees all of the

1513
01:21:53.039 --> 01:21:57.039
<v Speaker 3>iHeart Radio stations pretty much Trusty where you're listening right now.

1514
01:21:57.279 --> 01:22:00.920
<v Speaker 3>It goes into all over Texas in Louisiana. He makes

1515
01:22:00.920 --> 01:22:05.279
<v Speaker 3>a mandate that we does radio thons golf tournaments. I

1516
01:22:05.399 --> 01:22:09.239
<v Speaker 3>just participated in these St. Judes at Children's Hospital I

1517
01:22:09.399 --> 01:22:14.359
<v Speaker 3>Hurt Radio golf tournament this past Monday. It was at

1518
01:22:14.359 --> 01:22:16.479
<v Speaker 3>the Golf Club of Houston where they used to play

1519
01:22:16.479 --> 01:22:18.439
<v Speaker 3>the shell Uston open when they used to call, they

1520
01:22:18.520 --> 01:22:21.039
<v Speaker 3>used to open the shell used to open two hundred

1521
01:22:21.079 --> 01:22:24.039
<v Speaker 3>and fifty six teams, and I am not embarrassed to say,

1522
01:22:25.039 --> 01:22:30.359
<v Speaker 3>drum roll plays. We won the entire tournament. My team

1523
01:22:30.399 --> 01:22:33.439
<v Speaker 3>won the entire tournament. I am not taking full credit.

1524
01:22:34.520 --> 01:22:38.239
<v Speaker 3>We had a ringer who could drive a golf ball

1525
01:22:38.720 --> 01:22:41.000
<v Speaker 3>three hundred and twenty five three hundred and fifty yards.

1526
01:22:41.279 --> 01:22:44.399
<v Speaker 3>I was nails from about one hundred yards out with

1527
01:22:44.399 --> 01:22:50.640
<v Speaker 3>my pitching ron hunted decently. But whatever it was, we

1528
01:22:50.680 --> 01:22:54.399
<v Speaker 3>won the entire tournament. How cool is that an employee

1529
01:22:54.399 --> 01:22:56.960
<v Speaker 3>wins it. It's not like I won money, like it

1530
01:22:56.960 --> 01:22:59.279
<v Speaker 3>was all for donation, but they raised what they raised

1531
01:22:59.399 --> 01:23:02.079
<v Speaker 3>five hundred six hundred thousand dollars just from the golf

1532
01:23:02.119 --> 01:23:04.640
<v Speaker 3>urn alone. Think about that this time of year, and

1533
01:23:04.680 --> 01:23:07.359
<v Speaker 3>that that's and that is isn't Is that the meaning

1534
01:23:07.399 --> 01:23:10.000
<v Speaker 3>of Christmas? I don't know. I watched too many Christmas

1535
01:23:10.000 --> 01:23:13.279
<v Speaker 3>specials growing up. I'm not sure. If it's the Island

1536
01:23:13.279 --> 01:23:16.640
<v Speaker 3>of Misfit toys actually left the island and they were

1537
01:23:16.720 --> 01:23:19.600
<v Speaker 3>kicked out of Santa Sleig with umbrellas and fell through chimneys,

1538
01:23:19.600 --> 01:23:21.920
<v Speaker 3>and now they're in actually little boys and girls' hands.

1539
01:23:22.560 --> 01:23:25.720
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if that's the spirit of Christmas. I

1540
01:23:25.720 --> 01:23:28.000
<v Speaker 3>don't know if you're supposed to stand at somebody's door

1541
01:23:28.920 --> 01:23:32.800
<v Speaker 3>and professor, confess your true love to someone who's already married,

1542
01:23:32.840 --> 01:23:34.840
<v Speaker 3>now that you're gonna, you know, love them until the

1543
01:23:34.920 --> 01:23:38.720
<v Speaker 3>day they die. I don't know, but I think donations

1544
01:23:39.119 --> 01:23:43.560
<v Speaker 3>and reflecting and maybe having some hot chocolate around the

1545
01:23:43.560 --> 01:23:46.680
<v Speaker 3>fire is is pretty good too. And it doesn't matter

1546
01:23:46.680 --> 01:23:49.119
<v Speaker 3>if it's a big tree. You could just go and

1547
01:23:49.119 --> 01:23:51.279
<v Speaker 3>look for some search lights and just get a little

1548
01:23:51.279 --> 01:23:55.079
<v Speaker 3>sickly looking tree and just if you just give a

1549
01:23:55.079 --> 01:23:56.920
<v Speaker 3>little love and give a little car and wrap it

1550
01:23:57.000 --> 01:23:58.840
<v Speaker 3>with a warm blanket at the bottom, and you know,

1551
01:23:59.039 --> 01:24:00.880
<v Speaker 3>just you know, take a go to a dog's house

1552
01:24:00.920 --> 01:24:03.039
<v Speaker 3>that has a lot of decorations and steal those and

1553
01:24:03.039 --> 01:24:07.399
<v Speaker 3>put it on the Christmas tree. That's the meaning of Christmas. People,

1554
01:24:07.560 --> 01:24:09.520
