The last 12 00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:00.359 two games were on Fox.

So 20 00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:27.799 I've canceled that. So I didn't get charged the sixty 21 00:01:27.879 --> 00:01:30.560 or eighty bucks or whatever it was for Fubo Live. 22 00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:34.239 But I don't get to watch the game.

But right now, here's what's ahead. 28 00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:52.879 On wake up Call, A person wanted for shooting a 29 00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:57.120 worker at Santa Mona College, San and Monica College is dead. 30 00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.879 The least from several agencies surrounded the person that we're 31 00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:04.319 looking for in a car on Aviation Boulevard yesterday and Hawthorne. 32 00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:07.400 A gunshot was heard. The person was found dead inside 33 00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:10.639 Pollice say this was not a random shooting of the 34 00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:15.039 college worker at Santa Monica College. It was targeted family 35 00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:18.439 of convicted killers, Eric and Lyle Menendez. I've traveled across 36 00:02:18.439 --> 00:02:21.000 the country to advocate for the brother's release from prison. 37 00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:24.360 It'll happen during a news conference today in La Da. 38 00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:27.960 George Gascone's office is reviewing evidence to determine if the 39 00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:30.520 now fifty three and fifty six year old brothers should 40 00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:34.479 be serving life sentences for killing their parents.

The auction closes October twenty second. A little 44 00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:47.000 later this hour, at five point twenty, we're going to 45 00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:49.919 be talking tech with Rich Demiro. If you're a fan 46 00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:52.360 of twob you could be getting some cash back that's 47 00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:56.879 always good. And how YouTube can help you get to sleep. Yeah, 48 00:02:56.960 --> 00:02:59.879 I'll be needing to pay attention to that one. Disaster 49 00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:02.919 always bring out the best in people, but they also 50 00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:05.840 bring out the worst. ABC Jim Ryan says the scammers 51 00:03:05.879 --> 00:03:09.240 have come out in force following Hurricanes Helene and Milton. 52 00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:11.240 We'll be talking more about that at five point fifty. 53 00:03:11.759 --> 00:03:13.800 Amy's on it coming up at the bottom of the hour. 54 00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:17.479 I'm on a quirky little show on Apple TV. And 55 00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:20.439 just because part of the title says it's bad, I 56 00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:22.680 think it's pretty good. That's coming up again at bottom 57 00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:24.639 of the hour. Let's get started with some of the 58 00:03:24.639 --> 00:03:26.879 stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour news room. 59 00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:29.439 Police in Santa Monica say a man suspected of shooting 60 00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:32.719 a coworker at Santa Monica College killed himself during a 61 00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:36.240 standoff in Hawthorn. Swat trucks pinned the guy's car on 62 00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:40.199 Aviation Boulevard yesterday. Officers say he shot himself. The man 63 00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:42.719 was wanted in connection with the shooting of a custodian 64 00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:45.319 at the college on Monday night. This student at Santa 65 00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:48.080 Monica College says, the whole thing is unnerving. What kind 66 00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:49.520 of person were they employing. 67 00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:52.240 I mean, it's kind of jarring knowing that somebody capable 68 00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:52.639 of that is. 69 00:03:54.280 --> 00:03:56.560 Was on campus. Billy say the man had a history 70 00:03:56.560 --> 00:04:00.479 of arrests, including attempted murder in twenty eleven, an assault 71 00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:04.159 with a deadly weapon involving a weapon involving a firearm. 72 00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:08.919 Rather in twenty nineteen, the son of a photojournalist murdered 73 00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:11.360 near Mount Baldy in the San Gabriel Mountains as doing 74 00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:14.280 court for allegedly killing his father. The La Kenny DA's 75 00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:16.600 office says the nineteen year old man is scheduled to 76 00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:20.319 be arraigned today on one count of murder. The La 77 00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:23.720 County Sheriff's Department says Christian Lowe was killed on Saturday. 78 00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:27.199 A man scene driving away was later arrested and identified 79 00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:31.800 as Lowe's son, La has welcomed an Olympic delegation from 80 00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:34.120 Paris to help get ready for twenty twenty eight. 81 00:04:34.279 --> 00:04:36.720 The Parisian group was presented at La City Hall just 82 00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:39.800 before starting a week long series of meetings and presentations 83 00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:42.319 for the next Olympic host. City Councilman Paul ker corey 84 00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:44.959 and congratulated the French capital on its twenty twenty four 85 00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.759 games and said even doubters in Paris were brought on board. 86 00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:53.000 You could feel that Parisians had an uplifted morale, a 87 00:04:53.040 --> 00:04:56.240 great sense of what their city could accomplish. 88 00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:59.040 When twenty twenty eight rolls around, La will join Paris 89 00:04:59.079 --> 00:05:02.000 in another distinction along with London as the only cities 90 00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:03.560 to host the Games three times. 91 00:05:03.839 --> 00:05:06.800 In downtown La. Michael Monks KFI News. 92 00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:09.639 The National Retail Federation says holiday sales are expected to 93 00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:13.160 set a new record this year. The federation says sales 94 00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:15.040 could rise as much as three and a half percent 95 00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:18.600 over last year, hitting about nine hundred and eighty billion dollars. 96 00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:22.079 Analysts say last month's interest rate cut could have helped 97 00:05:22.120 --> 00:05:26.000 lead to the higher expected holiday spending. We're waiting on 98 00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:29.160 Giordana Miller to connect with us from Israel. We know 99 00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:32.600 there's some delays sometimes because well she's calling from halfway 100 00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:36.040 around the country world. Oh wait, she is there. Okay, 101 00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:41.279 it's there, she is. Good morning, Jordana. The Biden administration 102 00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:43.800 has a new warning for Israel as it's continuing to 103 00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:49.279 try to root out Hamas in Gaza. What's at stake here, Well, the. 104 00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:52.120 You know, the supply of weapons and military aid for 105 00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:55.800 Israel is at stake. It's a pretty severe step that 106 00:05:55.839 --> 00:05:58.680 the United States has taken. We can assume it comes 107 00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:02.199 after this essions that the Americans had with the Israelis, 108 00:06:02.240 --> 00:06:05.279 except they didn't see any real changes on the ground, 109 00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:09.639 and so they put their demands into a letter with 110 00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:14.800 the looming threat of a weapons embargo if Israel doesn't 111 00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:19.639 improve the situation and get more humanitarian aid into Gaza, 112 00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:23.720 and the Americans have given Israel about thirty days to 113 00:06:23.839 --> 00:06:27.199 make a real change. You know, if we look at 114 00:06:27.199 --> 00:06:30.680 what's happening in the Gaza Strip and especially in northern Gaza, 115 00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:33.839 there has been a significant drop and aid getting in 116 00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:38.720 and there's you know, many many reasons for that. The 117 00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:42.879 Israelis aren't entirely to blame, but they do control the 118 00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:48.600 crossings that go into Gaza. The crossings have been closed 119 00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:51.439 for seven or eight of the of just the days 120 00:06:51.480 --> 00:06:56.199 of this month because of various Jewish holidays, the anniversary 121 00:06:56.000 --> 00:07:01.639 of October seventh, and even if even if AID came in, 122 00:07:02.040 --> 00:07:05.399 there was still a major problem with distributing the aid, 123 00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:08.360 the UN groups actually getting it into the hands of 124 00:07:08.399 --> 00:07:10.959 people that need it. And if you look specifically just 125 00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:13.600 at Northern Gaza, it's been a disaster over the last 126 00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:19.120 few weeks because Israel essentially relaunched a ground incursion into 127 00:07:19.399 --> 00:07:22.879 north parts of northern Gaza and it's almost you know, 128 00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:26.279 impossible to get AID in when there's major combat going 129 00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:29.639 on and it will focus has really been on the north. 130 00:07:29.879 --> 00:07:33.240 So there's been a lot of complaints from UN groups 131 00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:35.399 that they haven't been able to get in enough trucks. 132 00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:38.879 There hasn't been safe passage for the trucks to get 133 00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:41.639 to people who need aid, and the United States basically 134 00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:43.199 said we're fed up with this. You know, you need 135 00:07:43.240 --> 00:07:47.480 to make major changes or you know, you might we're 136 00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:49.879 not going to be able to supply you as military 137 00:07:49.879 --> 00:07:52.480 aid because we'll be in you know, in contravention of 138 00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:53.720 American law. 139 00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:59.120 Right, So Jordana. If the US stopped giving pretty much 140 00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:01.480 full support to Israe, what's at stake? I mean, can 141 00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:04.839 Israel got alone or do they? Can they not fight 142 00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:06.959 the war without the funding from the US. 143 00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:12.040 I mean, Israel would be able to fight for a 144 00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:15.879 little while, but not not for the long game. You know, 145 00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:21.120 they are dependent on American military aid, and Israel no 146 00:08:21.160 --> 00:08:24.000 position right now to put any of that aid at risk. Right, 147 00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:25.959 I mean, just look at what's happening in the region. 148 00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:29.519 The war in Gaza is not over. They're still fighting 149 00:08:29.560 --> 00:08:33.960 in northern Gaza. The war in Lebanon, the undeclared war 150 00:08:34.159 --> 00:08:38.000 against Obala, has just started. Right. Israel has a ground 151 00:08:38.039 --> 00:08:42.919 incursion into southern Lebanon. They're bombing Beirut and north of Beyrout. 152 00:08:44.039 --> 00:08:49.080 They've made significant gains against Hasbala in the last six weeks. 153 00:08:49.120 --> 00:08:53.440 But let's not you know, we cannot we can't overstate 154 00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:59.600 that Hasbala still has thousands of thousands of mid, short 155 00:08:59.600 --> 00:09:03.240 and long range missiles, some of them precision guided. Right, 156 00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:07.759 you can't take out Habala's whole arsenal in four or 157 00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:10.559 six weeks. Right, there were one hundred thousands was the 158 00:09:10.639 --> 00:09:13.600 last estimate at least, so that fighting is going to 159 00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:16.360 go on for some time. And then look then if 160 00:09:16.360 --> 00:09:21.000 we zoom out, we're waiting for Israel to strike Iran 161 00:09:21.200 --> 00:09:24.960 after Iran fired one hundred and eighty ballistic missiles on Israel. 162 00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:28.240 And that is even if Israel sticks to the military 163 00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:33.279 targets and doesn't touch the oil fields or the nuclear site, 164 00:09:33.639 --> 00:09:37.960 still Israel's going to hit Ran with a significant attack 165 00:09:38.039 --> 00:09:42.080 and that's going to likely draw another reprisal from Iran. Right, 166 00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:46.080 so there's a lot of a lot of theaters in 167 00:09:46.080 --> 00:09:49.120 which Israel is fighting and it can't put any of it, 168 00:09:49.399 --> 00:09:52.840 any military aid from the US at risk. So you 169 00:09:52.879 --> 00:09:57.000 know we're going to see, you know, we're going to 170 00:09:57.039 --> 00:10:00.399 see Israel make some changes. It looks like try to 171 00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:05.000 really boost aid in. There's only about fifty or sixty 172 00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:08.799 or seventy trucks that have gone in on average this month, 173 00:10:08.960 --> 00:10:11.759 and that's you know, that's a fifty percent drop or more. 174 00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:14.360 You know, there should be about two hundred trucks going 175 00:10:14.360 --> 00:10:19.279 in and again fewer even fewer getting into northern Gaza. 176 00:10:20.039 --> 00:10:22.360 So you know, we're gonna have to watch and see 177 00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:25.399 what the Israelis do. But they are taking this seriously. 178 00:10:25.679 --> 00:10:28.799 Yeah. And then also on the other end, like you said, 179 00:10:29.039 --> 00:10:33.080 even if or when Israel does increase the aid and 180 00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:35.600 start sending more trucks in, there's no guarantee that the 181 00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:37.159 palaestin name people get it. 182 00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:41.799 Right. Well, that's an issue that you know, the UN 183 00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:45.039 has to also deal with the World Food Program, the 184 00:10:45.080 --> 00:10:49.159 World Health Organization, the NGOs that are under the UN 185 00:10:49.600 --> 00:10:54.720 or US umbrella. Those organizations have to distribute the aid 186 00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:58.399 and that is complicated because not only because of Israeli 187 00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:01.039 combat in northern Gaza now, but there's a lot of 188 00:11:01.159 --> 00:11:05.679 lawlessness in the area because the police used to be 189 00:11:06.120 --> 00:11:09.320 part of Hamas and Israel's targeted and taking the police out. 190 00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:13.960 So Hamas is there. Hamas is stealing some of the aid. 191 00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:18.480 I mean, that's clear. Yeah, they're they're they're they're stockpiling 192 00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:21.919 it in their tunnels. They're selling it at you know, 193 00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:26.799 exorbitant prices to normal gobsins, so you know, dealing and 194 00:11:27.159 --> 00:11:29.200 there's a big bully on the streets. I mean, who 195 00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:33.519 who's you know, the UN has to deal with, you know, 196 00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:37.159 Hamas as well as they try to navigate this. So 197 00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:40.639 it's a complicated picture and it's been a persistent problem 198 00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:46.240 distributing the aid, So we're going to have to just 199 00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:48.919 see what Israel does and hopefully the UN also will 200 00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:50.679 work more closely with Israel. 201 00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:54.279 All right, Jordana Miller, thank you so much for the information. 202 00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:58.840 We appreciate it as always.

Critics say 233 00:13:22.919 --> 00:13:27.320 the idea could spiral into unforeseen consequences.

Some 246 00:14:08.799 --> 00:14:12.240 people who attended the Deadpool show at California Adventure Park 247 00:14:12.799 --> 00:14:17.240 are upset with his jokes.

In a statement, 263 00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:09.080 Chevron said this is an example of political decision making 264 00:15:09.159 --> 00:15:12.919 that ignores the realities of the market. Chevron executives say 265 00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:15.639 they think the new law could lead to higher prices 266 00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:19.799 for drivers in California, Nevada, and Arizona.

It was held up for months. If 277 00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:54.000 he decides to get back in the game as a player, 278 00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:56.480 he would have to sell his stake in the team. 279 00:15:56.960 --> 00:15:58.639 At six oh five, it's handled. On the news, a 280 00:15:58.639 --> 00:16:01.639 guy accused of threatening female workers in North Carolina is 281 00:16:01.720 --> 00:16:04.840 speaking out. We'll let you know what he's saying. Right now, 282 00:16:05.159 --> 00:16:07.039 let's say good morning too. The host of Rich on 283 00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:10.399 Tech on KFI KTLI tech reporter Rich DeMuro, Good. 284 00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:12.799 Morning, Rich, Good morning to you. Amy. 285 00:16:13.000 --> 00:16:17.000 Okay, so we have new things that aren't so great 286 00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:22.320 because they ignore old problems. Apple's new iPad Mini is out. 287 00:16:23.240 --> 00:16:25.879 Yeah, that's a great way of putting it. So the 288 00:16:25.960 --> 00:16:28.080 iPad Mini, a lot of people like it because it's 289 00:16:28.120 --> 00:16:31.679 nice and small. This is the new seventh generation, and 290 00:16:31.799 --> 00:16:34.159 so of course they put a new processor in much faster, 291 00:16:34.360 --> 00:16:37.519 a seventeen pro ready for Apple Intelligence. 292 00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:39.000 Whenever that comes out in the next two weeks or so. 293 00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:42.279 Let's see what else. Screen size day the same. 294 00:16:42.320 --> 00:16:44.159 Oh, they also made it faster with the Wi Fi. 295 00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:47.559 If your router supports that, it's four hundred and ninety 296 00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:50.480 nine dollars. They increase the storage by double, so it's 297 00:16:50.480 --> 00:16:52.159 one hundred and twenty eight gigs, so you can actually 298 00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:54.639 store some stuff on here. But the one thing they 299 00:16:54.720 --> 00:16:58.519 did not change on this little tiny iPad is the screen, 300 00:16:58.759 --> 00:17:00.480 and that is the biggest issue. So I bought this 301 00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:02.679 a couple of years ago and I returned it within 302 00:17:02.799 --> 00:17:05.799 two days because if you're looking at the iPhone all day, 303 00:17:06.079 --> 00:17:08.400 it's a really clear screen, and if you look at 304 00:17:08.440 --> 00:17:10.039 this iPad many it is not clear. 305 00:17:10.119 --> 00:17:12.720 It looks like an old school iPhone. So they didn't 306 00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:13.039 fix that. 307 00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:16.839 So it just needs like a higher resolution. 308 00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:21.039 Yes exactly, and so without that, I can't recommend this. 309 00:17:21.160 --> 00:17:23.480 I have to see this in person, but I'm really 310 00:17:23.640 --> 00:17:26.799 confused as to why Apple did not change that. Yeah, 311 00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:30.400 because it's literally keeping me from getting this thing, because 312 00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:32.319 I want a tiny iPad that I can use as 313 00:17:32.640 --> 00:17:34.880 you know, books and magazines and videos on the plane. 314 00:17:35.240 --> 00:17:37.359 But this is not it. For five hundred bucks. They 315 00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:38.960 needed to fix that, you know what. 316 00:17:39.039 --> 00:17:40.720 The other thing that I think is a problem with 317 00:17:40.839 --> 00:17:44.880 the iPad compared like because the kindle you can read 318 00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:47.160 and it doesn't get all glary on you, so you 319 00:17:47.279 --> 00:17:51.039 can read it outdoors and in different lights. The iPad 320 00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:54.519 has that, I don't know, the reflection on it or something. 321 00:17:54.720 --> 00:17:57.119 You don't see it as well you can, and you 322 00:17:57.240 --> 00:18:01.319 can't adjust the screen to make it like good for 323 00:18:01.440 --> 00:18:01.920 book reading. 324 00:18:02.319 --> 00:18:04.839 Yeah, one hundred percent. And I think that that's a 325 00:18:05.000 --> 00:18:08.000 huge miss with Apple because the technology exists. There's actually 326 00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:13.319 another tablet I tested called next Paper from TCL, and 327 00:18:13.400 --> 00:18:16.440 that's what it does. It switches from the standard screen 328 00:18:16.519 --> 00:18:19.440 you watch like a movie on to a more Kindle 329 00:18:19.599 --> 00:18:20.079 like screen. 330 00:18:20.400 --> 00:18:23.079 It's not perfect, and you know, but it is. 331 00:18:23.359 --> 00:18:26.920 It is that technology exists, and so personally, for that reason, 332 00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:29.880 I'm still using on the plane my phone and then 333 00:18:29.920 --> 00:18:32.200 a regular old kindle because I still think that's the 334 00:18:32.279 --> 00:18:36.720 most distraction freeway of reading and also easy on the eye, 335 00:18:36.799 --> 00:18:39.400 especially us. You know, ninety nine percent of people are 336 00:18:39.400 --> 00:18:41.920 on their screens all day, so nice to get a 337 00:18:42.000 --> 00:18:42.559 break from that. 338 00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:46.599 Okay, except that you know you're supposed to turn off 339 00:18:46.720 --> 00:18:49.480 technology before you go to sleep, but now you're saying 340 00:18:49.559 --> 00:18:52.240 that YouTube can actually help you go to sleep. 341 00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:56.559 Yeah, the irony of this, I'm now, I will admit 342 00:18:56.720 --> 00:18:58.720 I'm pretty much one of those people who like checks 343 00:18:58.759 --> 00:19:00.759 their phone right before they go to sleep, and for 344 00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:02.680 better or for worse, because if you see an email 345 00:19:02.759 --> 00:19:04.920 that needs something, you think about it all night long, 346 00:19:05.480 --> 00:19:09.119 so I can't recommend that. But this is a new 347 00:19:09.160 --> 00:19:13.240 feature on YouTube. They have added a sleep timer, so 348 00:19:13.400 --> 00:19:16.119 if you can't get enough of YouTube all day long, 349 00:19:16.279 --> 00:19:16.799 you can now. 350 00:19:16.759 --> 00:19:17.920 Fall asleep to YouTube. 351 00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:20.359 This used to be a premium feature, so you had 352 00:19:20.440 --> 00:19:23.279 to pay for a premium account to get this. Now 353 00:19:23.359 --> 00:19:25.680 it is available to everyone, and they have a bunch 354 00:19:25.720 --> 00:19:27.799 of other little improvements too to the app. 355 00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:30.200 But I thought that was pretty funny. But here's a deal. 356 00:19:30.920 --> 00:19:33.799 My kids everything is YouTube to them, so when they 357 00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:37.119 listen to music or news or anything, it is all 358 00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:40.759 just YouTube is their first search, so it's they don't 359 00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:43.200 go to the traditional channels. It's really interesting, so I 360 00:19:43.279 --> 00:19:45.920 think this is aimed towards people like them. 361 00:19:46.440 --> 00:19:48.079 Well, can't you just put the sleep timer on the 362 00:19:48.119 --> 00:19:50.519 television television? 363 00:19:50.519 --> 00:19:52.319 The kids don't want to watch television. They're on their 364 00:19:52.359 --> 00:19:52.799 phones and. 365 00:19:52.839 --> 00:19:55.519 I just watching YouTube on their screens. They're not watching 366 00:19:55.559 --> 00:19:56.079 it on TV. 367 00:19:56.599 --> 00:19:59.359 Well sometimes on TV. But my point is it's, you know, 368 00:19:59.480 --> 00:20:02.599 we're in a whole new world where it's like, you know, 369 00:20:02.680 --> 00:20:03.960 the first thing you might do when you get to 370 00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:06.160 a hotel room is turn on the TV. Kids, you know, 371 00:20:06.440 --> 00:20:08.160 not like we did that with our kids once. They 372 00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:10.279 couldn't believe it. Like they're like, wait, stuff just plays 373 00:20:10.359 --> 00:20:13.640 all day long, like on this TV. I'm like, yeah, 374 00:20:13.720 --> 00:20:16.599 Disney Channel just like literally just plays stuff one after another. 375 00:20:16.680 --> 00:20:18.240 They were like so entranced. 376 00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:18.960 I love it. 377 00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:23.799 Okay, us, speaking of new technology, we might not have 378 00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:26.680 to share business cards anymore. I always liked business cards, 379 00:20:26.680 --> 00:20:28.200 but I get that they're obsolete. 380 00:20:28.799 --> 00:20:29.200 I don't know. 381 00:20:29.279 --> 00:20:31.599 I still think business cards are the easiest way to 382 00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:33.599 share when you're out and about, because I'm at a 383 00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:36.640 lot of conferences and I've tried the digital cards and 384 00:20:36.720 --> 00:20:41.559 it's really tricky because it's just this anyway. Instagram of 385 00:20:41.640 --> 00:20:43.920 course putting their take on the digital business card, and 386 00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:46.519 you can access this on your account right now. If 387 00:20:46.559 --> 00:20:49.799 you go to your profile and then you hit share profile, 388 00:20:50.599 --> 00:20:53.680 you'll see this new little fancy business cards show up. 389 00:20:53.720 --> 00:20:56.279 It's like two sided, it's got a QR code on 390 00:20:56.319 --> 00:20:58.319 the back, It's got your picture on the front along 391 00:20:58.359 --> 00:21:00.920 with your little bio. And the idea is that you 392 00:21:01.000 --> 00:21:04.839 can either share this to someone via text, whatever, or 393 00:21:04.920 --> 00:21:07.000 they can scan the QR code on the back. You 394 00:21:07.079 --> 00:21:09.079 can also share it to your story on Instagram. I 395 00:21:09.200 --> 00:21:11.039 don't know why you'd need to do that. I did it, 396 00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:12.079 but just to test it. 397 00:21:12.680 --> 00:21:14.039 But it's there, okay. 398 00:21:14.160 --> 00:21:16.960 And is it just to share your Instagram information or 399 00:21:17.039 --> 00:21:18.720 is it to share your your phone number and your 400 00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:20.039 email address and that kind of stuff too. 401 00:21:20.640 --> 00:21:22.319
