00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.240
<v Speaker 1>The following program is produced by the tech Talk Radio Network.

2
00:00:03.439 --> 00:00:04.559
<v Speaker 2>This is Adrian Barbo.

3
00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:07.320
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to tech Talk Radio and you're gonna learn

4
00:00:07.559 --> 00:00:12.160
<v Speaker 1>a lot. Welcome to another episode of tech Talk Radio.

5
00:00:12.279 --> 00:00:15.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm Andy Taylor, I'm Sean de Weird and happy to

6
00:00:15.599 --> 00:00:18.440
<v Speaker 1>be here. The first show of the new year, twenty

7
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:20.320
<v Speaker 1>twenty six, of course, and boy, has a.

8
00:00:20.239 --> 00:00:23.559
<v Speaker 2>Lot happened in the last couple of days. Stranger Things

9
00:00:23.600 --> 00:00:27.960
<v Speaker 2>has ended. We're into a new year, and the rumor

10
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:30.359
<v Speaker 2>is that Stranger Things has a secret episode.

11
00:00:30.839 --> 00:00:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Wait, really, how did you find a secret episode of

12
00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:34.320
<v Speaker 1>this thing?

13
00:00:35.079 --> 00:00:38.280
<v Speaker 2>So? Okay, just like Caitlin and I, we finished the

14
00:00:38.359 --> 00:00:41.640
<v Speaker 2>last episode a couple of nights ago, and right before

15
00:00:41.679 --> 00:00:43.759
<v Speaker 2>the show we were recording, I jumped into discorders and

16
00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:46.000
<v Speaker 2>friends was talking and they're like, oh, Shawn Shey, we

17
00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:48.240
<v Speaker 2>can tell them about the new the potential secret episode.

18
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:50.039
<v Speaker 2>I was like, what are you talking about? Have you

19
00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:54.280
<v Speaker 2>not been on the internet at all today? Apparently people

20
00:00:54.359 --> 00:00:57.039
<v Speaker 2>have not been happy with the way the show.

21
00:00:56.920 --> 00:01:00.240
<v Speaker 1>Ended, right right tweet It was. When most shows go away,

22
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:03.520
<v Speaker 1>they usually have kind of bad endings. There's only been

23
00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:04.680
<v Speaker 1>a few that have been good.

24
00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:09.599
<v Speaker 2>So conspiracy theorists for the show went through the final

25
00:01:09.640 --> 00:01:11.959
<v Speaker 2>episode with the Fine tooth Comb and found all these

26
00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:15.799
<v Speaker 2>little subtle hints that are saying that there's an alternate

27
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:21.000
<v Speaker 2>ending episode coming or a new real true ending episode coming,

28
00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:23.959
<v Speaker 2>and it's supposed to drop on the seventh.

29
00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:26.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh, so it would be out by now. So yeah,

30
00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:27.760
<v Speaker 1>it'd be out by now.

31
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:31.359
<v Speaker 2>But so we don't know. There could be a rumored

32
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:36.159
<v Speaker 2>secret final episode for Stranger Things if you believe all

33
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:38.239
<v Speaker 2>the hype and the conspiracy theories and all that stuff.

34
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:41.799
<v Speaker 2>But I don't. I really liked the last episode. I'm

35
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:45.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm in the minority on those who liked the episode

36
00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:45.959
<v Speaker 2>the way.

37
00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:50.319
<v Speaker 1>It ended, right, but it was good. Now with them

38
00:01:50.439 --> 00:01:53.040
<v Speaker 1>ending the show, is there any I haven't seen it

39
00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:56.480
<v Speaker 1>and without you know, spoilers, Is there any way that

40
00:01:56.760 --> 00:01:58.480
<v Speaker 1>it could make it come back at some point in

41
00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:01.799
<v Speaker 1>the future they could have They're already talking to spinoffs, right.

42
00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:04.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's spinoffs for those of you who haven't watched

43
00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:10.000
<v Speaker 2>the show. This might be minor spoilers, so hopefully. But

44
00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:13.199
<v Speaker 2>the teacher that they get hooked up with early and

45
00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:16.639
<v Speaker 2>the av teacher and then Murray from the episode, they

46
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:20.280
<v Speaker 2>both get nicknames in the final season. Okay, Murray is

47
00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:23.039
<v Speaker 2>Bald Eagle because he's got bald heads and stuff, and

48
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:27.000
<v Speaker 2>then the teacher is Snook Thems. It's funny. You have

49
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:30.919
<v Speaker 2>to watch it, understand, right, But everybody wants a spinoff

50
00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:32.639
<v Speaker 2>called Snook Thems and Bald Eagle.

51
00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:36.479
<v Speaker 1>That would be good. I like it, that would work.

52
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:40.639
<v Speaker 2>So, I mean, there could be other spinoffs and who

53
00:02:40.639 --> 00:02:43.000
<v Speaker 2>knows what. But I think it's gonna end in a

54
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:44.560
<v Speaker 2>good place. I think it'll be done.

55
00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:47.520
<v Speaker 1>And now they're doing some Broadway stage play with the

56
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:49.800
<v Speaker 1>characters of Stranger Things. I don't know if you've seen

57
00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:50.759
<v Speaker 1>the ads for it.

58
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:51.919
<v Speaker 2>I have not seen that.

59
00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:54.479
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and they're, you know, trying to sell tickets. I've

60
00:02:54.520 --> 00:02:58.000
<v Speaker 1>seen ads, so you know, see the stage play see

61
00:02:58.199 --> 00:03:01.240
<v Speaker 1>inspired by Stranger Things, and it has a weird kind

62
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:03.639
<v Speaker 1>of feeling about it. I was wondering, would you like

63
00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:06.199
<v Speaker 1>go to see a stage play based on that?

64
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:08.240
<v Speaker 2>Say a little? Probably want to go, But I do

65
00:03:08.360 --> 00:03:11.800
<v Speaker 2>like stage plays, so maybe I don't know. I think

66
00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:14.360
<v Speaker 2>it ran its course right. It started in twenty sixteen,

67
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:17.439
<v Speaker 2>and I just think it's kind of lost. It's a

68
00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:20.639
<v Speaker 2>lure for me. I'm glad it's over. It ended.

69
00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:23.159
<v Speaker 1>Well, I think that's interesting. Well, if you find out

70
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:27.520
<v Speaker 1>anything about a secret episode, which they've done stuff like

71
00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:29.680
<v Speaker 1>this before, haven't. They were like, if you wanted to

72
00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:32.919
<v Speaker 1>see something, you could enter a certain key, you know,

73
00:03:33.560 --> 00:03:36.439
<v Speaker 1>command on your remote control and that would allow you,

74
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:39.840
<v Speaker 1>I know, that allows you to sometimes find if you

75
00:03:39.960 --> 00:03:44.080
<v Speaker 1>like a genre of science fiction or horror or comedies,

76
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:47.319
<v Speaker 1>you could do that. And they're just like little secrets.

77
00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:49.800
<v Speaker 1>It's like the secret menu at you know, in and

78
00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:53.280
<v Speaker 1>out Burger you have for Netflix, which is kind of cool.

79
00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:55.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I don't know, we'll see, but you just google it.

80
00:03:55.840 --> 00:03:57.919
<v Speaker 2>It's everywhere. It's on a lot of blogs, and it's

81
00:03:57.960 --> 00:03:59.080
<v Speaker 2>it's kind of all over the internet. Ever.

82
00:03:59.159 --> 00:04:02.840
<v Speaker 1>Know, we we haven't talked to you since before Christmas.

83
00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:05.159
<v Speaker 1>We have had a couple of best of shows that

84
00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:08.039
<v Speaker 1>we shared which were kind of cool. And now officially

85
00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:12.479
<v Speaker 1>we're in our thirtieth year of tech Talk Radio being

86
00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:16.639
<v Speaker 1>on the broadcast airwaves, which is amazing. So that's kind

87
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:16.800
<v Speaker 1>of you.

88
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:19.079
<v Speaker 2>Want to do I want to age you right now?

89
00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:20.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, go ahead. Yeah.

90
00:04:20.879 --> 00:04:23.800
<v Speaker 2>So if this is your thirtieth year, yeah, that means

91
00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:28.040
<v Speaker 2>I was nine when you started the show.

92
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:30.800
<v Speaker 1>Oh and you would have been a great You would

93
00:04:30.839 --> 00:04:32.680
<v Speaker 1>have been great on the show thirty years ago. I

94
00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:33.439
<v Speaker 1>think that would have been.

95
00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:36.879
<v Speaker 2>I mean, so I shared with Andie and Justin a

96
00:04:36.959 --> 00:04:40.360
<v Speaker 2>video over Christmas, right, and it's a video my my

97
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:42.639
<v Speaker 2>mom and dad were very big on recording home videos

98
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:47.040
<v Speaker 2>and stuff, and this was a Christmas from nineteen ninety one,

99
00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:51.319
<v Speaker 2>I think. Yeah, I was four yeap and it was

100
00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:55.319
<v Speaker 2>the year that Super Mario Brothers three came out. Oh wow,

101
00:04:55.480 --> 00:04:58.279
<v Speaker 2>and my brother he got it as the gift. But

102
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:00.800
<v Speaker 2>it's and I'll share it you put it on the blog.

103
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:03.680
<v Speaker 2>But it's a video of my brother unwrapping Supermarrebrooughs Street,

104
00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:06.120
<v Speaker 2>getting super excited about it, and then him handing it

105
00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:08.560
<v Speaker 2>to me and in my high pitched four year old

106
00:05:08.680 --> 00:05:12.079
<v Speaker 2>voice is like screaming about Supervier Brothers because that was

107
00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:14.480
<v Speaker 2>it was just loved Supervier Brothers as a kid, So

108
00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:18.000
<v Speaker 2>definitely could have had some good insight as a nine

109
00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:19.839
<v Speaker 2>as a nine year old, Yeah, the show.

110
00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:21.959
<v Speaker 1>It was that was actually really cool to see. I

111
00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:24.480
<v Speaker 1>want to say the night before that you sent that

112
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:27.399
<v Speaker 1>video over Gloria and we're talking about how you know,

113
00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:30.560
<v Speaker 1>our kids are grown up now and we experienced Christmas

114
00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:34.920
<v Speaker 1>through the grandkid, and that he was sick over the

115
00:05:34.959 --> 00:05:37.399
<v Speaker 1>Christmas holiday, so we didn't get to see him. So

116
00:05:37.560 --> 00:05:39.519
<v Speaker 1>it was like we were talking about how we kind

117
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:42.399
<v Speaker 1>of missed that whole thing with the kids growing up.

118
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:44.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, me sitting on a couch still asleep because

119
00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:47.680
<v Speaker 1>been wrapping presents all night and then you know, the

120
00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:50.160
<v Speaker 1>kids would open something and I would ask, Gloria, where'd

121
00:05:50.199 --> 00:05:52.519
<v Speaker 1>you buy that? Where'd you get that? Where'd you find

122
00:05:52.519 --> 00:05:54.680
<v Speaker 1>that one at? And it was it was kind of

123
00:05:54.720 --> 00:05:58.439
<v Speaker 1>cool to experience that in your video when you sent that.

124
00:05:58.519 --> 00:06:01.160
<v Speaker 1>It was uh and seeing you, you know a little

125
00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:04.319
<v Speaker 1>a little sean at they're getting opening the presence, getting

126
00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:07.920
<v Speaker 1>your turtle socks. That was the Ninja Turtle slippers.

127
00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:10.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, those are big, those are big. Those were big.

128
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:13.360
<v Speaker 1>So how about this Christmas? How how was it for you?

129
00:06:13.399 --> 00:06:15.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, did you have fun? We shared a list.

130
00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:17.720
<v Speaker 1>Did you get any of that? Oh?

131
00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:19.959
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I got a couple of things, right, I mean

132
00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:21.680
<v Speaker 2>I got the Antilog three D well, I bought that

133
00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:24.560
<v Speaker 2>for myself. Yeah, I did don get the controller, So

134
00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:28.600
<v Speaker 2>I bought that for myself after Christmas, right right, because

135
00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:32.360
<v Speaker 2>Caitlin ended up getting me a console Consola Retro. It's

136
00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:35.439
<v Speaker 2>a handheld device that basically has a bunch of ROMs

137
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:38.759
<v Speaker 2>on it. Oh, I think I've seen that I could play. Yeah,

138
00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:42.800
<v Speaker 2>that's a handheld device that could play pretty much any

139
00:06:43.879 --> 00:06:46.199
<v Speaker 2>up to up to PlayStation two games on it. It's

140
00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:48.879
<v Speaker 2>got joysticks on it.

141
00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:49.560
<v Speaker 1>And it comes with a whole bunch of ROMs or

142
00:06:49.600 --> 00:06:50.639
<v Speaker 1>you have to go out and find them.

143
00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:51.959
<v Speaker 2>It came with a whole bunch of MS.

144
00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:54.040
<v Speaker 1>And I so, how's the quality on that? Because I've

145
00:06:54.040 --> 00:06:56.199
<v Speaker 1>seen that advertising great and I thought that was kind

146
00:06:56.199 --> 00:06:57.560
<v Speaker 1>of cool and maybe I'd want one.

147
00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:00.319
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, it's great. I mean I I've been playing

148
00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:03.279
<v Speaker 2>some old game Boy games on it that I played

149
00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:05.959
<v Speaker 2>growing up. I played a couple of PlayStation games on there.

150
00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:08.160
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't want to do joysticks on that, like with

151
00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:11.160
<v Speaker 2>like you know, if you're doing dual dual thumb joysticks

152
00:07:11.160 --> 00:07:14.000
<v Speaker 2>on it, it's not super super fun to play. But

153
00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:17.399
<v Speaker 2>like the Super Maril, you know, the Superintendo games, the

154
00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:20.759
<v Speaker 2>nes games, the the Atari games on there are fun So.

155
00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:24.800
<v Speaker 1>Right, it's funny because this happened. So I told you

156
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:27.160
<v Speaker 1>guys when you were talking about getting the Analog three D,

157
00:07:27.279 --> 00:07:31.000
<v Speaker 1>which is pretty cool. I went into game Stop and

158
00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:32.519
<v Speaker 1>I asked them, are you guys going to be getting

159
00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:36.000
<v Speaker 1>the Analog three D and they said, no, they're not

160
00:07:36.040 --> 00:07:38.160
<v Speaker 1>going to be carrying that, which which is a shame.

161
00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:40.480
<v Speaker 1>The reason I went in is when you guys were

162
00:07:40.480 --> 00:07:43.759
<v Speaker 1>talking about that, you and you and Justin, I decided

163
00:07:43.879 --> 00:07:47.160
<v Speaker 1>I was going to go ahead and find the Nintendo

164
00:07:47.240 --> 00:07:49.439
<v Speaker 1>Wii and get that all see if I could get

165
00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:51.959
<v Speaker 1>it going again. And it been it been sitting in

166
00:07:51.959 --> 00:07:54.680
<v Speaker 1>the closet for a long time. So I opened the cloud,

167
00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:58.040
<v Speaker 1>pulled pulled the we out. I found a controller. I

168
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:00.399
<v Speaker 1>opened it and there were batteries in it. The thing

169
00:08:00.439 --> 00:08:03.680
<v Speaker 1>had not been used for years, and there was that

170
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:06.240
<v Speaker 1>caked on stuff. So I just sat there, you know,

171
00:08:06.319 --> 00:08:10.040
<v Speaker 1>spent about an hour just scraping away, and that whole

172
00:08:10.079 --> 00:08:14.079
<v Speaker 1>bit hooked up the Nintendo we well, I tried to

173
00:08:14.079 --> 00:08:15.920
<v Speaker 1>hook it up. There's no way to hook it up

174
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:19.360
<v Speaker 1>to a current television, and I was like, oh man,

175
00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:22.639
<v Speaker 1>So I had to go and buy a connector that

176
00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:28.199
<v Speaker 1>would basically it bridges so the you know the video yellow,

177
00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:32.440
<v Speaker 1>red and white audio you know, left and right, then

178
00:08:32.559 --> 00:08:35.360
<v Speaker 1>can be turned into HDMI, which is kind of cool.

179
00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:38.440
<v Speaker 1>It was about thirteen bucks, so I hooked I finally.

180
00:08:38.879 --> 00:08:40.879
<v Speaker 1>That's why I went to GameStop and I bought it there.

181
00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:43.559
<v Speaker 1>I got home and it was all excited and I've

182
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:46.360
<v Speaker 1>powered up and there I could see I could see

183
00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:51.120
<v Speaker 1>the menu, and I had my one controller and I tried.

184
00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:53.679
<v Speaker 1>I could hit a but I couldn't hit any other buttons.

185
00:08:53.799 --> 00:08:56.360
<v Speaker 1>Couldn't make it do anything. And I was like, but

186
00:08:56.399 --> 00:08:58.960
<v Speaker 1>I want to scroll there to that window that says

187
00:08:59.159 --> 00:09:02.679
<v Speaker 1>super Mario. I want to play it right, and I

188
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:05.360
<v Speaker 1>no matter what I did, I couldn't do it. So

189
00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:08.279
<v Speaker 1>I thought, Okay, it's probably that controller. It got really

190
00:09:08.320 --> 00:09:10.440
<v Speaker 1>messed up with the batteries being in it for that long.

191
00:09:10.960 --> 00:09:13.519
<v Speaker 1>So I went to back to game Stop. They didn't

192
00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:16.840
<v Speaker 1>have any. They said, go to Bookman's. So Bookmans, I

193
00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:19.320
<v Speaker 1>don't know if you're not familiar with Bookman's. They're a

194
00:09:19.320 --> 00:09:21.279
<v Speaker 1>local Tucson shop.

195
00:09:21.200 --> 00:09:23.200
<v Speaker 2>That has been half price books for us.

196
00:09:23.480 --> 00:09:26.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they sell half prize books, they sell games, they

197
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:30.279
<v Speaker 1>sell hardware, they sell music equipment. They have all kinds

198
00:09:30.279 --> 00:09:32.960
<v Speaker 1>of stuff in their Matter of fact, I saw a

199
00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:36.039
<v Speaker 1>comic book they had in the on their shelf. It

200
00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:40.399
<v Speaker 1>was the first one to introduce Batwoman. It was seven

201
00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:43.799
<v Speaker 1>hundred bucks for this comic book. So they sell you know,

202
00:09:44.399 --> 00:09:46.879
<v Speaker 1>hard to find stuff. So I went back and I

203
00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:49.159
<v Speaker 1>looked and they had a Wii section. They had a

204
00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:51.679
<v Speaker 1>Nintendo Wii that was ready to go for one hundred

205
00:09:51.679 --> 00:09:55.519
<v Speaker 1>and ten bucks, and then they had controllers twenty five bucks.

206
00:09:55.879 --> 00:09:59.399
<v Speaker 1>So I thought, well, luckily over the years I have

207
00:09:59.480 --> 00:10:02.480
<v Speaker 1>traded in. You take books, they give you a credit,

208
00:10:02.759 --> 00:10:04.879
<v Speaker 1>you take games to give you a credit, get hardware

209
00:10:04.960 --> 00:10:07.600
<v Speaker 1>to give you a credit. And I had, like, I

210
00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:09.519
<v Speaker 1>want to say, almost one hundred and fifty bucks in

211
00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:13.000
<v Speaker 1>store credit and this is from like twelve years ago,

212
00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:17.240
<v Speaker 1>and they accepted it. So I ended up getting my controller.

213
00:10:17.279 --> 00:10:20.279
<v Speaker 1>I came home, bought the batteries in it, and it

214
00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:23.519
<v Speaker 1>did the same thing. It wouldn't It wouldn't work. I

215
00:10:23.639 --> 00:10:28.240
<v Speaker 1>was so disappointed. I wanted to play Mario and so

216
00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:31.200
<v Speaker 1>I go online and I'm asking, you know, the home assistant,

217
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:33.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what can I do? Why isn't it working?

218
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:35.720
<v Speaker 1>And I said, make sure you have the sensor bar

219
00:10:36.360 --> 00:10:41.759
<v Speaker 1>properly fixed above the television. I'm like, sensor bar, What

220
00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:42.200
<v Speaker 1>the heck.

221
00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:43.240
<v Speaker 2>Is sumer part of this?

222
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:46.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, what's the censor bar? So I go online,

223
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:48.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking and I go, oh, I've seen that thing.

224
00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:52.159
<v Speaker 1>Where is that thing, and I'm digging through the closet.

225
00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:54.120
<v Speaker 1>I go with the garage. I go to my I

226
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.840
<v Speaker 1>have a storage facility. I go there, I looking, I

227
00:10:56.840 --> 00:10:59.720
<v Speaker 1>couldn't find it. I was so disappointed. So the next

228
00:10:59.799 --> 00:11:04.000
<v Speaker 1>day two book. No, well, I thought. So the next

229
00:11:04.120 --> 00:11:07.840
<v Speaker 1>day I'm going through something. I had to find a cassette,

230
00:11:07.960 --> 00:11:10.000
<v Speaker 1>and I'm looking for the cassette and once't you know,

231
00:11:10.080 --> 00:11:13.799
<v Speaker 1>right next to cassette, it's the center bar. So I go,

232
00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:16.440
<v Speaker 1>I find the center bar, I plug it in and

233
00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:19.519
<v Speaker 1>sure enough, there I've got access. I start playing uh

234
00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:22.320
<v Speaker 1>super Mario, and it was so much fun. But after

235
00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:26.919
<v Speaker 1>a while, I was thinking, these graphics are really terrible. Yeah,

236
00:11:27.159 --> 00:11:27.919
<v Speaker 1>not as exciting.

237
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:31.799
<v Speaker 2>I played a lot of the analog Dreety over Christmas break.

238
00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:32.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

239
00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:37.960
<v Speaker 2>I have blisters on my thumbs. I'm not joking. I

240
00:11:37.960 --> 00:11:40.480
<v Speaker 2>have callouses and blisters now on the inside of my thumbs.

241
00:11:40.519 --> 00:11:42.519
<v Speaker 1>Gamers headaches, yeah, from.

242
00:11:42.799 --> 00:11:47.080
<v Speaker 2>From because I played So I played through a ton

243
00:11:47.120 --> 00:11:54.000
<v Speaker 2>of Mario Kart sixty four. I unlocked nearly everything in

244
00:11:54.039 --> 00:11:56.519
<v Speaker 2>that game because I just was playing it every night

245
00:11:56.600 --> 00:11:59.600
<v Speaker 2>for a couple hours, Like I was just into it right,

246
00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:02.000
<v Speaker 2>and I've got a decent amount of time into the

247
00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:07.080
<v Speaker 2>operating of time, playing through that again, after.

248
00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:10.919
<v Speaker 1>It playing through it, playing on the analog three D

249
00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:13.279
<v Speaker 1>and sixty four emulator. Was it was it fun?

250
00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:16.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's it plays it just it looks so good.

251
00:12:16.759 --> 00:12:19.759
<v Speaker 2>Even hooked up to my projector, it looked good. Hooked

252
00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:22.240
<v Speaker 2>up to my monitor. Here on, I've got it hooked

253
00:12:22.279 --> 00:12:24.799
<v Speaker 2>up right now. I haven't. I just moved the steps today.

254
00:12:25.200 --> 00:12:27.960
<v Speaker 2>So for those of you watching, you're gonna notice that

255
00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:30.559
<v Speaker 2>the background is different in my in my view, I'm

256
00:12:30.559 --> 00:12:31.679
<v Speaker 2>in a different part of the basement.

257
00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:33.799
<v Speaker 1>First thing, I said to Sean, what's going on?

258
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:37.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so I got to work out the lighting a

259
00:12:38.000 --> 00:12:40.879
<v Speaker 2>little bit and change a couple things around. But it

260
00:12:40.919 --> 00:12:45.120
<v Speaker 2>looks better. The nostalgia is it feels and looks like

261
00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:49.480
<v Speaker 2>you were playing it and remembering it as it should

262
00:12:49.480 --> 00:12:50.919
<v Speaker 2>have been, not what it truly is.

263
00:12:51.279 --> 00:12:53.320
<v Speaker 1>Right, like, oh, these.

264
00:12:53.399 --> 00:12:55.600
<v Speaker 2>Graphics were amazing, and like now you look at you

265
00:12:55.639 --> 00:12:59.039
<v Speaker 2>go this graphics is aren't that great? But it plays

266
00:12:59.080 --> 00:13:02.759
<v Speaker 2>really really well on the analog three D. All the

267
00:13:02.799 --> 00:13:05.840
<v Speaker 2>games I have now are are really good, and I

268
00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:07.360
<v Speaker 2>think I'm up to nine games now.

269
00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:10.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm wondering though, if Sean, I you know, I moved

270
00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:13.120
<v Speaker 1>I have an Xbox, I had this Nintendo. We I

271
00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:16.399
<v Speaker 1>remember having you know, the Dreamcast and all that. But

272
00:13:16.840 --> 00:13:21.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm just became I became a PC gamer. I became

273
00:13:21.559 --> 00:13:25.000
<v Speaker 1>somebody that is used to mouse and keyboard. Is there

274
00:13:25.039 --> 00:13:28.320
<v Speaker 1>a way to play like Super Mario Brothers on a

275
00:13:28.360 --> 00:13:29.200
<v Speaker 1>mouse and keyboard?

276
00:13:29.399 --> 00:13:31.639
<v Speaker 2>If you get an emulator and play it on your PC?

277
00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:35.120
<v Speaker 2>You can keybind you know, your four arrow buttons and

278
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:39.159
<v Speaker 2>ab right and do it that way. But there are

279
00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:44.120
<v Speaker 2>very select games for the sixties, the Super Nintendo and

280
00:13:44.159 --> 00:13:47.639
<v Speaker 2>the sixty four, they actually used a mouse. Really, Yeah,

281
00:13:47.679 --> 00:13:49.720
<v Speaker 2>there's a Mario Paint game that used a mouse.

282
00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:52.000
<v Speaker 1>Right, So.

283
00:13:53.480 --> 00:13:55.919
<v Speaker 2>If you're looking for that specific piece of hardware, good luck.

284
00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:01.200
<v Speaker 2>Platformers really weren't designed to be played on keyboard mouse. Yeah,

285
00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:05.480
<v Speaker 2>so it's hard to do that. They're designed for truly

286
00:14:05.519 --> 00:14:08.360
<v Speaker 2>designed for single joystick or dual joystick control.

287
00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:10.960
<v Speaker 1>So did you get any of the free games this

288
00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:15.080
<v Speaker 1>past holiday from Epic or Steam? They were given away

289
00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:18.240
<v Speaker 1>tons of games. Matter of fact, Epic's still doing it.

290
00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:20.919
<v Speaker 1>You can go to epics website and you could download

291
00:14:20.919 --> 00:14:23.840
<v Speaker 1>a free game and it might be a game that

292
00:14:23.919 --> 00:14:25.960
<v Speaker 1>you might like. It may be a game you've never

293
00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:27.879
<v Speaker 1>heard of or it might be a game you used

294
00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:29.320
<v Speaker 1>to have a lot of fun with. So if you

295
00:14:29.399 --> 00:14:32.480
<v Speaker 1>got a new PC or you got a new you know, laptop,

296
00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:35.399
<v Speaker 1>you can actually go on to Epic and you could

297
00:14:35.399 --> 00:14:38.159
<v Speaker 1>download these games for free. You know, he's creating an

298
00:14:38.159 --> 00:14:39.919
<v Speaker 1>account and then you could do that and it doesn't

299
00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:42.519
<v Speaker 1>cost you anything to create an account. But what's nice

300
00:14:42.519 --> 00:14:44.600
<v Speaker 1>about it if you see a game that's on there,

301
00:14:45.600 --> 00:14:47.440
<v Speaker 1>and you know, that's the thing. We don't have the

302
00:14:47.440 --> 00:14:50.080
<v Speaker 1>physical media anymore, you can download the game and you

303
00:14:50.120 --> 00:14:50.600
<v Speaker 1>could play that.

304
00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:52.879
<v Speaker 2>I'll have to I'll have to look and see on

305
00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:54.519
<v Speaker 2>their website right now, but I don't see any of

306
00:14:54.519 --> 00:14:57.480
<v Speaker 2>the free versions free. There's a lot of sales.

307
00:14:57.679 --> 00:14:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, if you screw to on epix, you have to

308
00:14:59.639 --> 00:15:02.360
<v Speaker 1>scroll down and then you'll see the free I'll.

309
00:15:02.159 --> 00:15:04.679
<v Speaker 2>Look for it and bring it back up. But yeah, no,

310
00:15:04.840 --> 00:15:09.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I honestly, outside of playing some Diabloto with

311
00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:11.519
<v Speaker 2>some friends during break, I really just kind of stuck

312
00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:14.360
<v Speaker 2>to playing the classics, really got right back into it.

313
00:15:14.440 --> 00:15:19.120
<v Speaker 2>I mean, my free time was spent playing Mario sixty,

314
00:15:19.399 --> 00:15:25.919
<v Speaker 2>Mario Kart or Operato time. I mean, and then I

315
00:15:25.960 --> 00:15:29.480
<v Speaker 2>also it just brought back the truly playing those games

316
00:15:29.519 --> 00:15:32.360
<v Speaker 2>that I found joy in playing when I was younger.

317
00:15:32.519 --> 00:15:36.600
<v Speaker 2>I've been replaying so Oker. End of Time was the

318
00:15:37.480 --> 00:15:39.200
<v Speaker 2>one that I really wanted to get through, but I

319
00:15:39.240 --> 00:15:42.039
<v Speaker 2>have already put in about twenty five hours. And just

320
00:15:42.480 --> 00:15:47.000
<v Speaker 2>sue Codin, which is a PlayStation platform right JRPG from

321
00:15:47.159 --> 00:15:51.440
<v Speaker 2>back in the early two thousands, late nineties. Yeah, so

322
00:15:52.279 --> 00:15:55.919
<v Speaker 2>I'm just back into good, good storytelling, good games, good

323
00:15:56.600 --> 00:15:57.200
<v Speaker 2>good action.

324
00:15:57.759 --> 00:15:59.279
<v Speaker 1>I told Gloria, I said, one of the games that

325
00:15:59.320 --> 00:16:02.480
<v Speaker 1>I love playing was Donkey Kong, the original Donkey Kong.

326
00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:06.039
<v Speaker 1>I used to go to the arcade. My girlfriend at

327
00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:09.320
<v Speaker 1>the time worked at Pennies in the Wayda park Ball

328
00:16:09.600 --> 00:16:12.000
<v Speaker 1>and we had an arcade in there, and while I

329
00:16:12.320 --> 00:16:14.600
<v Speaker 1>would go to pick her up from work, and I'd

330
00:16:14.600 --> 00:16:17.440
<v Speaker 1>have an hour to kill, hour to kill and a

331
00:16:17.440 --> 00:16:20.240
<v Speaker 1>handfull of quarters, a whole bunch of quarters, and I

332
00:16:20.279 --> 00:16:23.440
<v Speaker 1>would play Donkey Kong constantly. Had that so much fun

333
00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:25.440
<v Speaker 1>with that game. And I told her, I said, gosh,

334
00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:27.240
<v Speaker 1>I wish I could play, you know, Donkey Kong, but

335
00:16:27.320 --> 00:16:31.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't see that anywhere. And she said, she said,

336
00:16:31.240 --> 00:16:34.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, we were at best Buy once and they

337
00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:38.399
<v Speaker 1>had the stand up for that one. The actual arcade

338
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:40.879
<v Speaker 1>stand up that's put out by I have one of

339
00:16:40.879 --> 00:16:43.360
<v Speaker 1>the stand ups with Golliga and stuff. She said you

340
00:16:43.360 --> 00:16:45.399
<v Speaker 1>should just get that. I'm thinking, wait, are you saying

341
00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:48.919
<v Speaker 1>I could spend the money and buy another stand up game,

342
00:16:49.399 --> 00:16:51.720
<v Speaker 1>which I might end up doing it because Donkey Kong

343
00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:53.919
<v Speaker 1>was a blast. That would be funny.

344
00:16:54.080 --> 00:16:56.679
<v Speaker 2>So I have a friend who owns a barcade back

345
00:16:56.679 --> 00:16:59.759
<v Speaker 2>home in my hometown. And when he opened up, you

346
00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:02.399
<v Speaker 2>could go in and get twenty bucks, spend twenty bucks

347
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:05.759
<v Speaker 2>and get twenty five dollars worth the tokens. Right, And

348
00:17:06.400 --> 00:17:09.880
<v Speaker 2>my friend, my friend Shane, and I spent twenty dollars

349
00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:13.240
<v Speaker 2>playing through that. He had the four player X Men cabinet, right,

350
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:16.440
<v Speaker 2>and we just spent we just blew all our money

351
00:17:16.519 --> 00:17:18.640
<v Speaker 2>playing through the X Men. It was so it was

352
00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:22.200
<v Speaker 2>so much fun. My favorite arcade I have two. Yeah,

353
00:17:22.279 --> 00:17:27.200
<v Speaker 2>My two favorite arcade cabinets are Ivan Stewart's Iron Man, right,

354
00:17:27.480 --> 00:17:30.079
<v Speaker 2>the Truck the Truck Racing one, okay, and then the

355
00:17:30.119 --> 00:17:32.680
<v Speaker 2>Turtles and Time cabinet with the four player Turtles and Time.

356
00:17:32.559 --> 00:17:35.039
<v Speaker 1>Cabinet, Oh my gosh, yeah, and then.

357
00:17:34.920 --> 00:17:37.160
<v Speaker 2>The Ninja Turtles, Turtles and Times cabin anytime I found

358
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:39.599
<v Speaker 2>that I would absolutely just blow my entire allowance or

359
00:17:39.599 --> 00:17:42.359
<v Speaker 2>whatever whatever money my parents gave me to buy gifts

360
00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:45.000
<v Speaker 2>for and just blow it on Turtles and Time, because

361
00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:48.440
<v Speaker 2>that's probably one of my all time favorite games to

362
00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:50.079
<v Speaker 2>play with my brothers was Turtles of Time.

363
00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:52.680
<v Speaker 1>A friend of mine, Mark Wallace is an was an

364
00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:57.920
<v Speaker 1>animator and layout artist. He this guy is so talented.

365
00:17:57.960 --> 00:17:59.960
<v Speaker 1>We used to hang out, you know, before video game

366
00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:03.680
<v Speaker 1>And if you saw the movie Ghostbusters, do you remember

367
00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:06.039
<v Speaker 1>the scene where siggording Weavers sitting in the chair and

368
00:18:06.079 --> 00:18:09.000
<v Speaker 1>the two arms come up and grab her. He designed that.

369
00:18:09.519 --> 00:18:13.720
<v Speaker 1>He also created a chicken with a human head that

370
00:18:13.880 --> 00:18:15.400
<v Speaker 1>never made it in the film, but it's on the

371
00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Best of or not the Best of the DVD extras reel,

372
00:18:18.680 --> 00:18:20.920
<v Speaker 1>which is cool. We always said Mark, nobody's gonna ever

373
00:18:20.960 --> 00:18:24.000
<v Speaker 1>see that, and sure enough it came out and had

374
00:18:24.000 --> 00:18:26.880
<v Speaker 1>his name on the artwork he actually worked. I want

375
00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:30.480
<v Speaker 1>to say it was Don Bluth. I think remember Dragon's Layer.

376
00:18:31.480 --> 00:18:34.799
<v Speaker 1>That was Yes, that was a great stand up arcade game.

377
00:18:35.279 --> 00:18:38.680
<v Speaker 1>It was a little more expensive than playing Miss pac

378
00:18:38.759 --> 00:18:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Man or pac Mat or whatever or Centipede, but it

379
00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:44.000
<v Speaker 1>was kind of cool because you moved left and it

380
00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:46.240
<v Speaker 1>would flash and then you moved right. He helped us

381
00:18:46.440 --> 00:18:48.960
<v Speaker 1>do some of the the artwork in that one, and

382
00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:51.079
<v Speaker 1>that was a great That was a great stand up.

383
00:18:51.079 --> 00:18:53.079
<v Speaker 1>I would might have one of those two, and I

384
00:18:53.160 --> 00:18:55.400
<v Speaker 1>think that one might be available somewhere.

385
00:18:55.480 --> 00:18:55.960
<v Speaker 2>That's cool.

386
00:18:56.079 --> 00:18:58.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, all right, big announcements of course from CS. You

387
00:18:58.960 --> 00:19:03.240
<v Speaker 1>sent me something today saying did you see this? And

388
00:19:03.319 --> 00:19:06.160
<v Speaker 1>it's from el Gato And if you've ever used el

389
00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:09.240
<v Speaker 1>Gato products, for those that want to do podcasting or

390
00:19:09.319 --> 00:19:12.519
<v Speaker 1>video streaming, el Gato makes all kinds of products to

391
00:19:12.559 --> 00:19:15.319
<v Speaker 1>make it easier. I think the first thing I remember

392
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:18.640
<v Speaker 1>from El Gato was, you know, the little switchboxes, the

393
00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:24.279
<v Speaker 1>stream deck, and then you saw them going into lighting, cameras, keyboards,

394
00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:26.880
<v Speaker 1>the whole bit. And now they've put something out which

395
00:19:27.079 --> 00:19:28.240
<v Speaker 1>kind of combines all of it.

396
00:19:29.400 --> 00:19:33.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. So it's called the Galleon one SD. All right,

397
00:19:33.680 --> 00:19:37.279
<v Speaker 2>it's three hundred and fifty bucks. It looks like a

398
00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:41.960
<v Speaker 2>ten keyless keyboard, but the ten key is replaced with

399
00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:46.519
<v Speaker 2>twelve button stream deck with an LCD display and two knobs.

400
00:19:47.079 --> 00:19:49.599
<v Speaker 1>So for our listeners, don't know, maybe they've been thinking

401
00:19:49.599 --> 00:19:52.279
<v Speaker 1>about getting into this. What would a stream deck do

402
00:19:52.400 --> 00:19:55.319
<v Speaker 1>for them? If they wanted to do a podcast or

403
00:19:55.400 --> 00:19:56.039
<v Speaker 1>video cast.

404
00:19:56.279 --> 00:19:58.039
<v Speaker 2>What do you want to control? You can tie it

405
00:19:58.039 --> 00:20:01.160
<v Speaker 2>into home automation. You can tie it into scene control

406
00:20:01.200 --> 00:20:03.640
<v Speaker 2>with OBS. You can tie it into switcher control with

407
00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:05.720
<v Speaker 2>my ATM Mini. You can tie it into lighting. You

408
00:20:05.759 --> 00:20:11.519
<v Speaker 2>can tie it into changing camera angles, changing scenes, changing

409
00:20:11.559 --> 00:20:17.799
<v Speaker 2>web browsers, loading web browsers, loading your email, hot keys, volume, right,

410
00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:22.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean you really there's no limit with the stream deck,

411
00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:26.240
<v Speaker 2>especially if you tie it. So you have stream Deck,

412
00:20:27.319 --> 00:20:31.319
<v Speaker 2>which is its own hardware and software solution. There is

413
00:20:31.359 --> 00:20:33.640
<v Speaker 2>a free software that you can also get called bit

414
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:38.480
<v Speaker 2>Focused Companion, which ties in a lot more professional broadcast

415
00:20:38.559 --> 00:20:43.279
<v Speaker 2>related software that can tie in professional broadcast equipment into

416
00:20:43.400 --> 00:20:46.440
<v Speaker 2>a stream deck, which is we use them pretty pretty

417
00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:49.279
<v Speaker 2>extensively at the university.

418
00:20:49.359 --> 00:20:53.640
<v Speaker 1>So could you essentially, so say you use OBS Studio

419
00:20:54.119 --> 00:20:56.200
<v Speaker 1>and you have stream Deck, and you have button one

420
00:20:56.720 --> 00:20:59.920
<v Speaker 1>could be one camera, button two could be a second camera,

421
00:21:00.240 --> 00:21:03.880
<v Speaker 1>but button three combining button one and two into a

422
00:21:03.920 --> 00:21:06.519
<v Speaker 1>two shot, could you set that up up.

423
00:21:06.519 --> 00:21:09.319
<v Speaker 2>So that so that gets tricky? Right? So it all

424
00:21:09.359 --> 00:21:11.839
<v Speaker 2>depends on how you capture the capture them right. So

425
00:21:12.359 --> 00:21:16.039
<v Speaker 2>this is where things get tricky with cameras and inputs devices, right,

426
00:21:16.079 --> 00:21:18.640
<v Speaker 2>because if you have it's like, my two cameras are

427
00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:21.240
<v Speaker 2>coming into my ten Mini. I could picture and picture

428
00:21:21.240 --> 00:21:22.720
<v Speaker 2>them in the in the A ten Mini and have

429
00:21:22.799 --> 00:21:26.279
<v Speaker 2>the ATM Mini do that. But I can't have OBS

430
00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:30.119
<v Speaker 2>bring in golf cameras because it's being used by the

431
00:21:30.160 --> 00:21:32.880
<v Speaker 2>aten Mini. But if I had a separate HDMI captured

432
00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:35.400
<v Speaker 2>card and had both coming in as two separate sources,

433
00:21:35.559 --> 00:21:38.880
<v Speaker 2>then yes, I could build and design two boxes, three boxes,

434
00:21:38.880 --> 00:21:45.039
<v Speaker 2>four boxes, splits, squads, whatever, using custom keys and hot keys.

435
00:21:44.599 --> 00:21:47.759
<v Speaker 2>In stream deck. It's got an OBS native plug in,

436
00:21:48.079 --> 00:21:50.920
<v Speaker 2>so it ties in directly with your OBS. It's super

437
00:21:51.240 --> 00:21:53.279
<v Speaker 2>super easy to set up. I mean I haven't set

438
00:21:53.359 --> 00:21:54.799
<v Speaker 2>up in mind that I can go to my left

439
00:21:54.839 --> 00:21:57.000
<v Speaker 2>screen ATM Mini and I screwed it up.

440
00:21:57.039 --> 00:21:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Of course, all we got was a black screen.

441
00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:03.599
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, so it must not be oh you know what,

442
00:22:03.759 --> 00:22:06.680
<v Speaker 2>because I don't have my second Ethernet cable, run to

443
00:22:06.680 --> 00:22:10.440
<v Speaker 2>my new box, screwed on my I screwed on my Well,

444
00:22:10.480 --> 00:22:11.240
<v Speaker 2>this is.

445
00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:14.519
<v Speaker 1>If you remember when Matt redid his studio, it took

446
00:22:14.519 --> 00:22:16.759
<v Speaker 1>a little while to work the bugs out, so which

447
00:22:16.799 --> 00:22:18.079
<v Speaker 1>is exactly what you're doing.

448
00:22:19.160 --> 00:22:22.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so new setup and I haven't really workflowed my

449
00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:24.119
<v Speaker 2>whole setup because I just I just finished putting it

450
00:22:24.160 --> 00:22:27.400
<v Speaker 2>back together to day and vacuum the basement and all stuff.

451
00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:30.839
<v Speaker 1>So but this completely This El Gatto keyboard, though, could

452
00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:34.720
<v Speaker 1>really help in many ways. It could give you productivity

453
00:22:34.759 --> 00:22:36.880
<v Speaker 1>but also enabled you to do so.

454
00:22:36.880 --> 00:22:38.160
<v Speaker 2>Think of it. Think of it like this. Right, you're

455
00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:40.519
<v Speaker 2>playing a video game, you're keep handing a keyboard in

456
00:22:40.599 --> 00:22:42.599
<v Speaker 2>your mouse, and you have a break. You could just

457
00:22:42.640 --> 00:22:45.000
<v Speaker 2>instead of having to go and reach up. My stream

458
00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:47.079
<v Speaker 2>deck is underneath my monitor, so I'm reaching up here

459
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:49.400
<v Speaker 2>to touch my stream deck. I now could just have

460
00:22:49.480 --> 00:22:51.519
<v Speaker 2>it right next to my hand and not have to

461
00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:54.960
<v Speaker 2>look down. It's or if you are looking up. But

462
00:22:54.960 --> 00:22:56.680
<v Speaker 2>it's got like I said, it's got two knobs on

463
00:22:56.720 --> 00:22:59.000
<v Speaker 2>the top. It's got an LCD readout, so you can

464
00:22:59.200 --> 00:23:01.200
<v Speaker 2>have it set up to do whatever you want. Plus

465
00:23:01.240 --> 00:23:06.680
<v Speaker 2>twelve buttons, so mine currently has fifteen, so it's three less.

466
00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:08.759
<v Speaker 2>But you can go to a new page. You can

467
00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:09.240
<v Speaker 2>do all.

468
00:23:09.079 --> 00:23:11.160
<v Speaker 1>Sorts of stuff, so pretty cool stuff. You can find

469
00:23:11.160 --> 00:23:13.519
<v Speaker 1>that on their website El Gato. Just look them up.

470
00:23:13.559 --> 00:23:16.440
<v Speaker 1>E L G A t O, which means the cat

471
00:23:17.119 --> 00:23:19.039
<v Speaker 1>we got to take a quick break. We come back.

472
00:23:19.079 --> 00:23:21.519
<v Speaker 1>We have a couple of listener questions. We will share

473
00:23:21.599 --> 00:23:24.920
<v Speaker 1>with you some great comments on the last show that

474
00:23:24.960 --> 00:23:27.039
<v Speaker 1>we did where we talked about do you turn your

475
00:23:27.079 --> 00:23:29.599
<v Speaker 1>computer off at night? So we'll cover some of those.

476
00:23:29.680 --> 00:23:31.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm Andy Taylor, I'm Sean de Weird.

477
00:23:31.519 --> 00:23:34.119
<v Speaker 2>I can subscribe to us on your favorite podcasting platform

478
00:23:34.160 --> 00:23:36.119

480
00:23:37.200 --> 00:23:40.000
<v Speaker 1>We'll be back and now back to tech talk Radio.

481
00:23:40.359 --> 00:23:42.759
<v Speaker 2>During the break, we discussed a couple of listener questions

482
00:23:42.759 --> 00:23:45.440
<v Speaker 2>and and he felt fit that I was the right

483
00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:47.799
<v Speaker 2>guy to do this because I have done this.

484
00:23:48.039 --> 00:23:49.240
<v Speaker 1>Yes, well, we've talked about it.

485
00:23:50.279 --> 00:23:52.200
<v Speaker 2>This is this should just be my catchphrase for the show.

486
00:23:52.799 --> 00:23:55.920
<v Speaker 2>We've talked about this on the show before. Could I

487
00:23:55.920 --> 00:23:57.519
<v Speaker 2>say that all the time? Well, we've talked about this

488
00:23:57.519 --> 00:23:59.160
<v Speaker 2>in the show before. I've talked about this show four

489
00:23:59.200 --> 00:23:59.480
<v Speaker 2>when it.

490
00:23:59.480 --> 00:24:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Comes, when it can. Of the digitizing, we're talking photos,

491
00:24:02.160 --> 00:24:07.400
<v Speaker 1>we're talking film. You've done film, negatives and vhs.

492
00:24:07.799 --> 00:24:12.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I've done eight milimeters, super eight high eight tapes,

493
00:24:12.480 --> 00:24:16.440
<v Speaker 2>mini dv vhs. You don't wait to max.

494
00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I need to figure out how to do mini dv

495
00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:20.559
<v Speaker 1>I got so many many dvs laying around, but I

496
00:24:20.599 --> 00:24:22.200
<v Speaker 1>don't have a mini DV player.

497
00:24:22.480 --> 00:24:26.279
<v Speaker 2>I have a mini DV deck right that will do it.

498
00:24:26.359 --> 00:24:28.599
<v Speaker 2>They have fires, FireWire and all this stuff.

499
00:24:28.599 --> 00:24:31.240
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I was thinking of just getting the camera

500
00:24:31.319 --> 00:24:33.720
<v Speaker 1>fixed and then people sell cameras for two to three

501
00:24:33.759 --> 00:24:36.319
<v Speaker 1>hundred bucks, but yeah, you can. Yeah.

502
00:24:36.440 --> 00:24:39.559
<v Speaker 2>Anyways, so the listener question is in the line of

503
00:24:39.960 --> 00:24:44.079
<v Speaker 2>VHS tapes all right. Scott from Palm Springs wrote it

504
00:24:44.200 --> 00:24:46.960
<v Speaker 2>and said, I found a bunch of VHS tapes and

505
00:24:47.000 --> 00:24:48.640
<v Speaker 2>I want to digitize them, but I want to do

506
00:24:48.680 --> 00:24:52.279
<v Speaker 2>it myself. I thought one of those kids but my friends.

507
00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:55.359
<v Speaker 2>My friend said he would lend me his, but I

508
00:24:55.400 --> 00:24:58.519
<v Speaker 2>wanted to look good. I saw an RGB capture card

509
00:24:58.559 --> 00:25:00.799
<v Speaker 2>on Amazon. Is that better? And this kit from you

510
00:25:00.920 --> 00:25:03.680
<v Speaker 2>lead You didn't link it to us, so I'm not

511
00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:07.000
<v Speaker 2>sure what that does have to find it, but there

512
00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:10.440
<v Speaker 2>are You want to make sure that it's a USB A.

513
00:25:10.759 --> 00:25:14.799
<v Speaker 2>It'll be an RCA you yellow red white to USB

514
00:25:15.359 --> 00:25:18.359
<v Speaker 2>capture card. You want to make sure it's gonna come

515
00:25:18.359 --> 00:25:21.640
<v Speaker 2>with some sort of software. Now you can go to

516
00:25:21.839 --> 00:25:26.000
<v Speaker 2>black Magic and get their Studio Express software for free

517
00:25:26.160 --> 00:25:30.039
<v Speaker 2>to capture. Really, if you're on Macro, Windows, or you

518
00:25:30.079 --> 00:25:32.960
<v Speaker 2>can capture within final cut itself typically, but you got

519
00:25:32.960 --> 00:25:34.559
<v Speaker 2>to be careful because those are your usually gonna be

520
00:25:34.599 --> 00:25:37.519
<v Speaker 2>progress or higher, right, so it's gonna eat up a

521
00:25:37.559 --> 00:25:40.079
<v Speaker 2>lot of storage. You're looking for something that's gonna capture

522
00:25:40.119 --> 00:25:42.359
<v Speaker 2>into a compressed form of like HG six four or

523
00:25:42.759 --> 00:25:48.599
<v Speaker 2>six five. I brought mine in HDMI, so the device

524
00:25:48.680 --> 00:25:52.880
<v Speaker 2>I have takes takes rca composite in to HDMI out

525
00:25:53.480 --> 00:25:55.799
<v Speaker 2>and will actually upscale it to seven to twenty P,

526
00:25:55.960 --> 00:25:58.279
<v Speaker 2>so it takes it from five five twenty five I

527
00:25:58.440 --> 00:25:59.160
<v Speaker 2>to seven twenty P.

528
00:25:59.480 --> 00:25:59.960
<v Speaker 1>That's good.

529
00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:03.240
<v Speaker 2>It did. Okay, it was okay for what it was.

530
00:26:03.400 --> 00:26:04.839
<v Speaker 2>But you're gonna want to find one that has a

531
00:26:04.880 --> 00:26:07.759
<v Speaker 2>software capture that won't just do pro res or some

532
00:26:07.799 --> 00:26:09.920
<v Speaker 2>sort of raw format that you're gonna just eat up

533
00:26:09.920 --> 00:26:12.799
<v Speaker 2>a ton of bit of storage. I will recommend this

534
00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:14.640
<v Speaker 2>is going to be like down the rabbit hole for

535
00:26:14.640 --> 00:26:15.880
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people, but it has a lot of

536
00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:18.680
<v Speaker 2>resources for people that don't want to jump all the

537
00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:20.480
<v Speaker 2>way down the rabbit hole but want to get to

538
00:26:20.519 --> 00:26:24.359
<v Speaker 2>a certain level. There's a subreddit called vhs decode, which

539
00:26:24.400 --> 00:26:28.200
<v Speaker 2>is a group of hardware hackers that are actually hardware hacking.

540
00:26:28.279 --> 00:26:32.920
<v Speaker 2>They're VHS players to capture the true r F output

541
00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:36.640
<v Speaker 2>of the VHS players instead of actually taking the video output,

542
00:26:36.960 --> 00:26:39.519
<v Speaker 2>So it's actually taking the RF signal as it's being

543
00:26:39.599 --> 00:26:42.559
<v Speaker 2>translated from the tape before it gets converted back to video.

544
00:26:43.400 --> 00:26:45.759
<v Speaker 2>But the wiki on the sidebar has a lot of

545
00:26:45.880 --> 00:26:49.160
<v Speaker 2>help for people that are like, hey, I found this subreddit.

546
00:26:49.240 --> 00:26:51.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how to do all this stuff, but

547
00:26:51.079 --> 00:26:53.200
<v Speaker 2>here's devices you can buy that will do what you

548
00:26:53.240 --> 00:26:53.680
<v Speaker 2>need to do.

549
00:26:53.720 --> 00:26:55.880
<v Speaker 1>So, Sean, what do you think about this? There are

550
00:26:56.400 --> 00:26:59.680
<v Speaker 1>different software companies out there now that are using artificial

551
00:26:59.680 --> 00:27:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Intel AI, just like we could do with Gemini, or

552
00:27:03.440 --> 00:27:05.799
<v Speaker 1>to have it fixed photos, which you know I've had

553
00:27:05.799 --> 00:27:09.400
<v Speaker 1>fun experiencing. There are some that will say that they

554
00:27:09.440 --> 00:27:13.759
<v Speaker 1>can take video that is four eighty and really cleaning

555
00:27:13.799 --> 00:27:16.599
<v Speaker 1>it up and make it seven twenty looking. I mean,

556
00:27:16.720 --> 00:27:19.279
<v Speaker 1>is that Is it worth doing something like that or

557
00:27:19.359 --> 00:27:21.440
<v Speaker 1>does it depend on the video itself?

558
00:27:21.759 --> 00:27:24.440
<v Speaker 2>Depends on the video itself. All it's doing is interpolating

559
00:27:24.480 --> 00:27:27.319
<v Speaker 2>frames and blending it and smoothing it out and making

560
00:27:27.359 --> 00:27:29.880
<v Speaker 2>it look good. It's up to you if it's important

561
00:27:29.920 --> 00:27:32.920
<v Speaker 2>to you. I would say, don't do AI if you

562
00:27:32.960 --> 00:27:35.839
<v Speaker 2>don't want it to change what you're capturing. But again,

563
00:27:35.880 --> 00:27:38.359
<v Speaker 2>i'm a little bit of an ai A sayer. So

564
00:27:38.599 --> 00:27:42.440
<v Speaker 2>you can buy an RCA to HDMI device and either

565
00:27:42.640 --> 00:27:45.400
<v Speaker 2>use a capture card like in Algatto four K capture

566
00:27:45.440 --> 00:27:49.759
<v Speaker 2>card or some other cheap HDMI to USB and then

567
00:27:49.920 --> 00:27:53.000
<v Speaker 2>use OBS to capture it if if you're technically savvy,

568
00:27:53.160 --> 00:27:57.160
<v Speaker 2>you can use plethora of other options. But right, it's

569
00:27:57.240 --> 00:28:01.720
<v Speaker 2>relatively inexpensive to do yourself. The downside is it's real time, right,

570
00:28:02.680 --> 00:28:04.960
<v Speaker 2>There's no getting around that. Right, there's no way of

571
00:28:05.000 --> 00:28:07.680
<v Speaker 2>getting around that. The concept of if you have ten

572
00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:11.319
<v Speaker 2>hours of content, you're watching ten hours of content. There's

573
00:28:11.359 --> 00:28:15.880
<v Speaker 2>no way around that. Trust me, I went through hundreds

574
00:28:16.119 --> 00:28:18.559
<v Speaker 2>of hours of content when I did my family stuff.

575
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:22.279
<v Speaker 2>I mean hundreds of hours of tapes of tapes MiniDV

576
00:28:23.000 --> 00:28:26.640
<v Speaker 2>high eight, super eight eight millimeters, super eight millimeter, sixteen milimeter.

577
00:28:26.920 --> 00:28:29.240
<v Speaker 2>It's very rewarding. I've been told by a lot of

578
00:28:29.279 --> 00:28:31.319
<v Speaker 2>my family members that not a lot of people would

579
00:28:31.319 --> 00:28:34.319
<v Speaker 2>spend the time to do it. Yeah, because it's time consuming.

580
00:28:34.359 --> 00:28:38.160
<v Speaker 2>It's that that's the biggest complaint, The biggest frustration for

581
00:28:38.279 --> 00:28:42.480
<v Speaker 2>capturing analog media is that it's time consuming. So again,

582
00:28:43.200 --> 00:28:45.880
<v Speaker 2>you can pay somebody to do it. You can get

583
00:28:45.920 --> 00:28:48.079
<v Speaker 2>a shoe box, tape it up, send it in, you

584
00:28:48.160 --> 00:28:50.839
<v Speaker 2>get a file back, or you legacy box I think

585
00:28:50.920 --> 00:28:53.400
<v Speaker 2>is one we've talked about on the show before, and

586
00:28:53.680 --> 00:28:55.279
<v Speaker 2>a couple other options that are out there.

587
00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:57.640
<v Speaker 1>I think scan my photos by Mitch who's been on

588
00:28:57.640 --> 00:28:59.640
<v Speaker 1>the show a few times. I think they do that too,

589
00:28:59.839 --> 00:29:02.119
<v Speaker 1>So that's pretty cool. So but if you want to

590
00:29:02.160 --> 00:29:04.759
<v Speaker 1>do it yourself, I mean U Lead does have a kit.

591
00:29:04.880 --> 00:29:07.279
<v Speaker 1>I know Diamond used to have a kit, which I

592
00:29:07.319 --> 00:29:09.720
<v Speaker 1>think I may even have one of those laying around.

593
00:29:10.480 --> 00:29:13.799
<v Speaker 1>You have a DV hopefully you have a VHS deck,

594
00:29:14.200 --> 00:29:17.480
<v Speaker 1>a VCR if it has that, you know our GV

595
00:29:17.559 --> 00:29:19.319
<v Speaker 1>output on it. Don't forget they even have the ones

596
00:29:19.319 --> 00:29:22.279
<v Speaker 1>where you could play the video and record onto a DVD.

597
00:29:22.519 --> 00:29:24.319
<v Speaker 2>You could you could do that too if you wanted to.

598
00:29:24.720 --> 00:29:27.240
<v Speaker 2>But again, then you're onto another physical format, right, You're

599
00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:30.519
<v Speaker 2>not digital. You're not digital. You are you're technically digital

600
00:29:30.519 --> 00:29:32.960
<v Speaker 2>at that point, right, but you're not to a point

601
00:29:32.960 --> 00:29:35.640
<v Speaker 2>where you could put it on the web or do

602
00:29:35.720 --> 00:29:37.799
<v Speaker 2>that if you unless you ripped it from the DVD

603
00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:40.240
<v Speaker 2>after that point, But then you're now you're in a

604
00:29:40.279 --> 00:29:43.240
<v Speaker 2>third generation, and you're compressed, and then you're uncompressed. You're

605
00:29:43.240 --> 00:29:46.160
<v Speaker 2>going from analog dumping two back to a different.

606
00:29:45.880 --> 00:29:48.200
<v Speaker 1>By that time people give up, Yeah, yeah, a couple

607
00:29:48.240 --> 00:29:48.359
<v Speaker 1>of hour.

608
00:29:48.920 --> 00:29:50.799
<v Speaker 2>By that time people give up, or the quality has

609
00:29:50.839 --> 00:29:53.319
<v Speaker 2>just gotten so bad because you're compressing and uncompressing so

610
00:29:53.319 --> 00:29:56.680
<v Speaker 2>many times. But just go on Amazon, find a kit

611
00:29:56.799 --> 00:29:58.640
<v Speaker 2>that you think is gonna work, spend a couple of

612
00:29:58.640 --> 00:30:00.839
<v Speaker 2>dollars and give it a rip.

613
00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and give it a try. Let us know how

614
00:30:02.720 --> 00:30:04.839
<v Speaker 1>that goes, Scott, because that would be kind of cool.

615
00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:08.480
<v Speaker 1>That would be neat to see. We had some comments

616
00:30:08.759 --> 00:30:11.359
<v Speaker 1>and I wanted to share with you, and we're available

617
00:30:11.440 --> 00:30:15.599
<v Speaker 1>on YouTube, We're available on TikTok, We're available on reels Facebook,

618
00:30:15.640 --> 00:30:19.799
<v Speaker 1>of course, and we talked about shutting down your computers

619
00:30:19.839 --> 00:30:23.759
<v Speaker 1>at night and it generated some interests. You know, you're

620
00:30:23.759 --> 00:30:26.119
<v Speaker 1>gonna be way longer than a couple of hours. You

621
00:30:26.160 --> 00:30:29.279
<v Speaker 1>know what is your process? And your comment was that

622
00:30:29.559 --> 00:30:31.880
<v Speaker 1>you know pretty much you do, but then again, you

623
00:30:31.920 --> 00:30:35.240
<v Speaker 1>have a plex server that you leave on. We had

624
00:30:35.240 --> 00:30:38.799
<v Speaker 1>some comments, like from a guy named Fungus. It's a

625
00:30:38.839 --> 00:30:41.720
<v Speaker 1>great name, said, my plexed computer has been turned on

626
00:30:41.880 --> 00:30:45.240
<v Speaker 1>for six years now is that possible of you.

627
00:30:45.319 --> 00:30:48.039
<v Speaker 2>Oh why not? So Yeah, it's all one hundred possible

628
00:30:48.200 --> 00:30:50.079
<v Speaker 2>unless you have a power outage. You move it, you

629
00:30:50.160 --> 00:30:53.200
<v Speaker 2>unplug it. There's nothing stopping on a computer from being

630
00:30:53.200 --> 00:30:54.799
<v Speaker 2>on as long as the electrons are flowing.

631
00:30:54.920 --> 00:30:57.359
<v Speaker 1>Another comment from Thomas said, I only shut down my

632
00:30:57.400 --> 00:31:00.519
<v Speaker 1>PC because of the RGB and it's in my bedroom. Yeah,

633
00:31:00.519 --> 00:31:03.000
<v Speaker 1>that's the thing with these new gaming towers. End up

634
00:31:03.079 --> 00:31:05.440
<v Speaker 1>lighting up the world and you're trying to sleep. You

635
00:31:05.480 --> 00:31:08.400
<v Speaker 1>got that RGV light going on. It says my Raspberry

636
00:31:08.400 --> 00:31:10.240
<v Speaker 1>Pie is always on though that you don't really have

637
00:31:10.319 --> 00:31:12.359
<v Speaker 1>a reason to turn those off.

638
00:31:12.319 --> 00:31:15.079
<v Speaker 2>Outside of keeping them cool. Right, If you have it

639
00:31:15.119 --> 00:31:17.480
<v Speaker 2>on and it's just it's hot, it's in a bad

640
00:31:17.599 --> 00:31:21.359
<v Speaker 2>environment and it's just gonna get heat. Heats what kills electronics. Right,

641
00:31:21.440 --> 00:31:25.160
<v Speaker 2>unless you're in a really awful environment, high moisture environment,

642
00:31:25.319 --> 00:31:27.359
<v Speaker 2>keep your PC. It's not gonna kill it. You're just

643
00:31:27.400 --> 00:31:30.279
<v Speaker 2>gonna it's If it's idle, you can buy devices that

644
00:31:30.319 --> 00:31:33.240
<v Speaker 2>will check your idle power and see how much you're drawing. Right,

645
00:31:33.279 --> 00:31:35.759
<v Speaker 2>if you're worried about your electrical bill, all right, But

646
00:31:36.160 --> 00:31:38.599
<v Speaker 2>for the most part, computers when they're idol don't draw

647
00:31:38.640 --> 00:31:42.240
<v Speaker 2>that much power unless you have something crazy mining bitcoin

648
00:31:42.400 --> 00:31:44.880
<v Speaker 2>or you know, doing something weird in the background, it's

649
00:31:44.920 --> 00:31:47.839
<v Speaker 2>gonna be fine to reiterate that what we talked about before.

650
00:31:48.079 --> 00:31:50.480
<v Speaker 2>I shut my computer down every night, my PC. Yeah,

651
00:31:51.000 --> 00:31:54.440
<v Speaker 2>it's been a habit from the dawn of time for me.

652
00:31:54.680 --> 00:31:56.799
<v Speaker 2>When your computer actually told you was safe to turn

653
00:31:56.839 --> 00:31:57.359
<v Speaker 2>your machine off.

654
00:31:57.440 --> 00:31:59.519
<v Speaker 1>One one here I wanted to share. A soldier first

655
00:31:59.599 --> 00:32:03.880
<v Speaker 1>Class said, I have you know, I've had a few

656
00:32:03.920 --> 00:32:06.319
<v Speaker 1>power supplies. Go back to my PLEX servers. I have

657
00:32:06.359 --> 00:32:09.799
<v Speaker 1>a scheduled task that shuts it down at midnight every night,

658
00:32:10.279 --> 00:32:12.079
<v Speaker 1>so I just hit the power button. Then has another

659
00:32:12.119 --> 00:32:16.480
<v Speaker 1>scheduled task to start the PLEX service on startup as well. Now,

660
00:32:16.680 --> 00:32:18.839
<v Speaker 1>for our listeners don't know what is PLEX service? What

661
00:32:18.880 --> 00:32:19.400
<v Speaker 1>does that mean?

662
00:32:19.519 --> 00:32:23.039
<v Speaker 2>Plex is a media platform that you can download and

663
00:32:23.039 --> 00:32:26.279
<v Speaker 2>install on a computer, host your own media on it,

664
00:32:26.559 --> 00:32:30.400
<v Speaker 2>and then stream that media across your network. It's basically

665
00:32:30.400 --> 00:32:32.279
<v Speaker 2>a server. This is something that took me a long

666
00:32:32.319 --> 00:32:34.079
<v Speaker 2>time when I was younger. I was like, oh my gosh,

667
00:32:34.079 --> 00:32:39.640
<v Speaker 2>a server. It's this immediately think data center, tons of power,

668
00:32:40.440 --> 00:32:43.000
<v Speaker 2>tons of fans, right right, No, it could run on

669
00:32:43.039 --> 00:32:45.400
<v Speaker 2>a Raspberry Pie, it can run on your Mac Mini.

670
00:32:45.640 --> 00:32:47.359
<v Speaker 2>It can run on an old laptop. It can run

671
00:32:47.440 --> 00:32:51.079
<v Speaker 2>whatever runs on Linux, Windows, Mac arm right, it runs

672
00:32:51.119 --> 00:32:54.440
<v Speaker 2>on all these platforms. You install it, you point it

673
00:32:54.480 --> 00:32:56.480
<v Speaker 2>to the media on your hard drive that's attached to

674
00:32:56.480 --> 00:33:01.000
<v Speaker 2>that computer. You say, organized by movie, TV show, whatever.

675
00:33:01.160 --> 00:33:04.119
<v Speaker 2>You download the app on your phone. You go download

676
00:33:04.119 --> 00:33:07.079
<v Speaker 2>the PLEX app on your desktop for Mac, Windows or Linux,

677
00:33:07.200 --> 00:33:09.079
<v Speaker 2>and you're off to the race is watching the content

678
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:12.720
<v Speaker 2>from your computer, whether it's upstairs, your bedroom, on the road,

679
00:33:12.720 --> 00:33:14.960
<v Speaker 2>et cetera. Because you can tie it in. You open

680
00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:16.680
<v Speaker 2>the ports on your router and you can see the

681
00:33:16.720 --> 00:33:17.640
<v Speaker 2>outside world.

682
00:33:17.960 --> 00:33:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Basically doing that, you have your favorite movies. You can

683
00:33:20.519 --> 00:33:22.160
<v Speaker 1>have your favorite movies. You don't have to worry about

684
00:33:22.160 --> 00:33:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Netflix pulling them off. If you've bought the DVDs, you

685
00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:26.839
<v Speaker 1>could rip them, put them on your PLEX server and

686
00:33:26.880 --> 00:33:28.680
<v Speaker 1>be able to watch them anytime you want, if you're

687
00:33:28.720 --> 00:33:31.160
<v Speaker 1>traveling or your ORC makes it nice.

688
00:33:31.200 --> 00:33:33.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So the way I do it right, So I

689
00:33:33.519 --> 00:33:35.720
<v Speaker 2>have a PLEX server here at home. I've got a

690
00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:38.680
<v Speaker 2>four terabyte hard drive that is full of my movies,

691
00:33:38.759 --> 00:33:42.200
<v Speaker 2>my Blu rays, my DVDs, my home videos, TV shows

692
00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:44.279
<v Speaker 2>that I've got copies of right music.

693
00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:47.799
<v Speaker 1>Eah, except I think Plex is also doing now photos,

694
00:33:47.839 --> 00:33:49.680
<v Speaker 1>you could upload your photos, so if you want to

695
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:51.720
<v Speaker 1>have a photo library from your smartphone, you can actually

696
00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:53.000
<v Speaker 1>upload that to your PLEX server.

697
00:33:53.119 --> 00:33:55.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so then all your media lives at home, meaning

698
00:33:56.160 --> 00:33:58.680
<v Speaker 2>if you have an Internet outage, but your router and

699
00:33:58.680 --> 00:34:00.799
<v Speaker 2>everything's still connected, you can still stream the media from

700
00:34:00.839 --> 00:34:03.960
<v Speaker 2>your Pleux server. So what I did was I took

701
00:34:04.200 --> 00:34:08.840
<v Speaker 2>a two terabyte USB drive and a Raspberry Pie and

702
00:34:09.000 --> 00:34:12.280
<v Speaker 2>a TP link nano router plugged into a twelve O

703
00:34:12.719 --> 00:34:15.639
<v Speaker 2>car battery plugged into my camper. So then when we're

704
00:34:15.639 --> 00:34:20.880
<v Speaker 2>on the road traveling, I have access to my mini

705
00:34:20.920 --> 00:34:24.039
<v Speaker 2>plex server that I can then stream the YouTube videos

706
00:34:24.039 --> 00:34:27.119
<v Speaker 2>that I've downloaded for the boys, movies, TV shows, et cetera.

707
00:34:27.920 --> 00:34:30.960
<v Speaker 2>That way, when we're traveling, if we don't have access

708
00:34:30.960 --> 00:34:34.239
<v Speaker 2>to internet, can't stream something, I can just fire out

709
00:34:34.280 --> 00:34:36.599
<v Speaker 2>my Raspberry Pie and this little mini WiFi router, connet

710
00:34:36.639 --> 00:34:39.880
<v Speaker 2>my phone to it and watch movies in our camper

711
00:34:40.000 --> 00:34:41.559
<v Speaker 2>or while driving or et cetera.

712
00:34:41.719 --> 00:34:44.079
<v Speaker 1>So it's not that expensive, is It depends on.

713
00:34:44.239 --> 00:34:47.639
<v Speaker 2>What you do. Yeah, I recommend doing the Lifetime pass.

714
00:34:47.760 --> 00:34:50.199
<v Speaker 2>The Plex pass. It's a one time fee. It's like

715
00:34:50.360 --> 00:34:52.400
<v Speaker 2>I think it's close to two hundred dollars now, but

716
00:34:52.440 --> 00:34:57.519
<v Speaker 2>then you it's lifetime. Jellyfin and MB are free. Oh yeah, yeah,

717
00:34:57.559 --> 00:35:01.079
<v Speaker 2>which Jellfin and MB are two other and Cody Cody's

718
00:35:01.079 --> 00:35:03.719
<v Speaker 2>another one. Those ones I'm fairly certain are free. I

719
00:35:04.360 --> 00:35:07.239
<v Speaker 2>don't want to say free for sure. Just check them out.

720
00:35:07.360 --> 00:35:09.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's that's all I can tell you is

721
00:35:10.000 --> 00:35:13.599
<v Speaker 2>just go play with them, have fun. Download Plex, put

722
00:35:13.639 --> 00:35:16.960
<v Speaker 2>your media on it, rip your DVDs. Handbrake is the

723
00:35:16.960 --> 00:35:21.280
<v Speaker 2>program of choice for DVDs. Make mkv is the platform

724
00:35:21.360 --> 00:35:25.039
<v Speaker 2>of choice for Blu rays, rip and have fun. They'll

725
00:35:25.079 --> 00:35:27.559
<v Speaker 2>buy a four terabyte hard drive and just dump your

726
00:35:27.599 --> 00:35:28.039
<v Speaker 2>media out of it.

727
00:35:28.039 --> 00:35:30.519
<v Speaker 1>Now, I know some people will take their PLEX and

728
00:35:30.559 --> 00:35:33.320
<v Speaker 1>they will not have it hosted on their computer. They'll

729
00:35:33.320 --> 00:35:36.079
<v Speaker 1>plug it right into the router. Is that a good idea?

730
00:35:38.440 --> 00:35:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Well? Sure, I mean that's how I have it here, right,

731
00:35:40.880 --> 00:35:43.280
<v Speaker 2>I've got a tower in the back room in a

732
00:35:43.400 --> 00:35:48.119
<v Speaker 2>RAQ that's wired into the router. That's how I do it. Now,

733
00:35:49.599 --> 00:35:53.039
<v Speaker 2>you have local sharing, But then if you're if you're

734
00:35:53.079 --> 00:35:55.039
<v Speaker 2>out and about and you want to watch something on

735
00:35:55.079 --> 00:35:59.199
<v Speaker 2>your pluck server off your phone, you can't enable your

736
00:35:59.239 --> 00:36:02.559
<v Speaker 2>pluck server to reach out to the outside world and

737
00:36:02.719 --> 00:36:07.039
<v Speaker 2>stream from your your home through the public internet to

738
00:36:07.079 --> 00:36:11.440
<v Speaker 2>your device. I don't recommend doing that that there's too

739
00:36:11.480 --> 00:36:18.480
<v Speaker 2>many there's too many bad actors out there looking for vulnerabilities.

740
00:36:19.840 --> 00:36:22.559
<v Speaker 2>And you know, unless you're keeping up to date on

741
00:36:22.599 --> 00:36:25.519
<v Speaker 2>your security and you're updating your the security the server

742
00:36:25.719 --> 00:36:28.639
<v Speaker 2>every time, every time you get a security patch, it's

743
00:36:28.679 --> 00:36:32.039
<v Speaker 2>just not worth the risk in my opinion. For the

744
00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:34.400
<v Speaker 2>for what I need to watch, I'll just watch something

745
00:36:34.440 --> 00:36:37.960
<v Speaker 2>on Netflix or Amazon and deal with the ads, like

746
00:36:38.119 --> 00:36:43.320
<v Speaker 2>for if I'm out and about. But because you gotta remember, right,

747
00:36:43.599 --> 00:36:46.480
<v Speaker 2>do you remember what happened with last Pass? Last Pass

748
00:36:46.519 --> 00:36:50.320
<v Speaker 2>got hacked right because one of their developers was running

749
00:36:50.400 --> 00:36:55.400
<v Speaker 2>a unpatched plux server that got compromised and they got

750
00:36:55.400 --> 00:36:58.079
<v Speaker 2>in and were able to get in and see all this.

751
00:36:58.199 --> 00:37:00.360
<v Speaker 2>You know, they sat on a system for a period

752
00:37:00.360 --> 00:37:04.480
<v Speaker 2>of time and then we're able to access. So don't

753
00:37:05.280 --> 00:37:07.920
<v Speaker 2>leave things unpatched. If you're gonna do that, be vigilant

754
00:37:07.960 --> 00:37:09.880
<v Speaker 2>and have a security plan and take care of that.

755
00:37:09.960 --> 00:37:11.880
<v Speaker 1>All right, sounds good, We're gonna take another quick break.

779
00:38:13.480 --> 00:38:16.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's a lot of fun. If you have the

780
00:38:16.280 --> 00:38:18.719
<v Speaker 1>videos that you've you know, you've got over the years

781
00:38:18.760 --> 00:38:20.960
<v Speaker 1>that you went ahead and en coded. Just give it

782
00:38:21.000 --> 00:38:23.000
<v Speaker 1>a try and see what you think about it. You know,

783
00:38:23.000 --> 00:38:25.960
<v Speaker 1>originally my my son wanted to watch stuff, and my

784
00:38:26.079 --> 00:38:28.719
<v Speaker 1>daughter wanted to watch stuff that Oh hey, can I

785
00:38:28.760 --> 00:38:30.760
<v Speaker 1>see mom and Dad's you know, wedding video or I

786
00:38:30.760 --> 00:38:32.400
<v Speaker 1>could see that again. Oh yeah, I'll put it on

787
00:38:32.480 --> 00:38:34.639
<v Speaker 1>plex and there you go. Then they could you could

788
00:38:34.639 --> 00:38:35.320
<v Speaker 1>share it that way.

789
00:38:35.599 --> 00:38:38.559
<v Speaker 2>Well that's so. I mean, I have all my family

790
00:38:38.599 --> 00:38:40.960
<v Speaker 2>stuff on my plex o. Were also right because at

791
00:38:40.960 --> 00:38:43.679
<v Speaker 2>one point I did have it open when I was

792
00:38:43.719 --> 00:38:46.199
<v Speaker 2>first doing all my scanning and stuff, so that people

793
00:38:46.239 --> 00:38:47.920
<v Speaker 2>could see it and watch the videos a lot heavy

794
00:38:47.920 --> 00:38:50.679
<v Speaker 2>to host them to YouTube, and that's cool. Export, export

795
00:38:50.719 --> 00:38:52.559
<v Speaker 2>every single one, et cetera, et cetera, etcetera.

796
00:38:53.239 --> 00:38:55.480
<v Speaker 1>Actually, somebody, here's a good question. You just mentioned it.

797
00:38:55.519 --> 00:38:58.079
<v Speaker 1>So I got to ask. Somebody asked, they've never been

798
00:38:58.119 --> 00:39:01.199
<v Speaker 1>on YouTube. They want to create ate a YouTube page.

799
00:39:01.320 --> 00:39:02.039
<v Speaker 1>How hard is that?

800
00:39:03.400 --> 00:39:04.559
<v Speaker 2>Never been on YouTube?

801
00:39:04.639 --> 00:39:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Never been well, never been on YouTube as a creator?

802
00:39:07.360 --> 00:39:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, okay, how.

803
00:39:09.239 --> 00:39:11.199
<v Speaker 2>Have you exist? How have you existed since the year

804
00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:12.039
<v Speaker 2>two thousand and four?

805
00:39:12.239 --> 00:39:14.280
<v Speaker 1>They've seen videos on YouTube, but now they want to

806
00:39:14.360 --> 00:39:17.400
<v Speaker 1>have their own channel. How hard is that is it?

807
00:39:17.800 --> 00:39:19.639
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we were one. It's not one of the

808
00:39:19.679 --> 00:39:21.719
<v Speaker 1>waybacks you know, so I forget.

809
00:39:22.639 --> 00:39:25.559
<v Speaker 2>If you have a Google account, Yeah, you already have

810
00:39:25.559 --> 00:39:26.559
<v Speaker 2>a YouTube channel.

811
00:39:26.719 --> 00:39:29.400
<v Speaker 1>All right, so just give you to go.

812
00:39:30.159 --> 00:39:35.559
<v Speaker 2>I think it makes you create a username. But if

813
00:39:35.639 --> 00:39:38.159
<v Speaker 2>you have a video that's ready to go, you just

814
00:39:38.199 --> 00:39:42.639
<v Speaker 2>go to YouTube dot com clicking on create create content.

815
00:39:42.679 --> 00:39:44.599
<v Speaker 2>It's like the up ray head corn looks a little camera,

816
00:39:44.920 --> 00:39:46.079
<v Speaker 2>upload video, You're done.

817
00:39:46.320 --> 00:39:49.719
<v Speaker 1>They even have a new a new thing called YouTube Creator,

818
00:39:50.039 --> 00:39:51.679
<v Speaker 1>which you could put on your smartphone and you can

819
00:39:51.719 --> 00:39:54.760
<v Speaker 1>create cool videos out of photos or just something quick.

820
00:39:55.280 --> 00:39:58.480
<v Speaker 1>The I think the ingestion right now of long form

821
00:39:58.559 --> 00:40:02.960
<v Speaker 1>media is good, but short form media is what people

822
00:40:03.000 --> 00:40:07.920
<v Speaker 1>are watching right now. You know, I've been sucked into

823
00:40:07.960 --> 00:40:08.960
<v Speaker 1>YouTube short slately.

824
00:40:09.119 --> 00:40:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, it's bad and it's it's funny when you know,

825
00:40:14.440 --> 00:40:16.000
<v Speaker 2>Caylin and I will be at home and the boys

826
00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:18.000
<v Speaker 2>are asleep and we're just kind of doom scrolling on

827
00:40:18.039 --> 00:40:21.000
<v Speaker 2>our phones before we go to bed, and Kayler will

828
00:40:21.039 --> 00:40:23.880
<v Speaker 2>be just watching over my shoulder or sitting there. She goes,

829
00:40:23.960 --> 00:40:27.840
<v Speaker 2>that is such a sean stream, like your your every

830
00:40:27.880 --> 00:40:30.920
<v Speaker 2>short you go, all right, there's a soldering video. Help,

831
00:40:30.960 --> 00:40:34.559
<v Speaker 2>there's a video game video. There's there's tech talk. Hope,

832
00:40:34.599 --> 00:40:39.840
<v Speaker 2>there's another there's there's another analog video game something. There's

833
00:40:39.880 --> 00:40:43.000
<v Speaker 2>a photography one. Oh, there's a dirt bike one. It's like,

834
00:40:43.239 --> 00:40:47.440
<v Speaker 2>it's such a catered thing to me because I I

835
00:40:47.440 --> 00:40:51.400
<v Speaker 2>I when I when I do my streams, right, you

836
00:40:51.440 --> 00:40:55.679
<v Speaker 2>can really control what you see. Yeah, a lot of

837
00:40:55.679 --> 00:40:58.199
<v Speaker 2>people will just swipe, you know, they just swipe to

838
00:40:58.199 --> 00:41:01.639
<v Speaker 2>the next thing. Right. If you don't like a video

839
00:41:01.719 --> 00:41:03.360
<v Speaker 2>or you don't want to see more of it, thumb

840
00:41:03.360 --> 00:41:03.719
<v Speaker 2>it down.

841
00:41:04.639 --> 00:41:07.039
<v Speaker 1>Really, it'll never show you like it.

842
00:41:07.079 --> 00:41:09.519
<v Speaker 2>If you like it, give it a thumbs up, it

843
00:41:09.559 --> 00:41:12.519
<v Speaker 2>will aggregate for you based on what you're telling it

844
00:41:12.599 --> 00:41:15.519
<v Speaker 2>you like, and you'll start seeing more of the content

845
00:41:15.559 --> 00:41:17.400
<v Speaker 2>you thumb up and less of the content you thumb down.

846
00:41:17.480 --> 00:41:20.719
<v Speaker 1>Okay, thumbs up, please, yeah, thumbos up give us.

847
00:41:21.360 --> 00:41:24.159
<v Speaker 2>But even the content like the people that you're subscribed to,

848
00:41:24.360 --> 00:41:26.199
<v Speaker 2>you may not like a video they did and you

849
00:41:26.199 --> 00:41:29.119
<v Speaker 2>can thumb it down and you'll get less content from

850
00:41:29.119 --> 00:41:34.679
<v Speaker 2>them in that theme right, right, And it's crazy how

851
00:41:34.760 --> 00:41:37.159
<v Speaker 2>quickly you can adjust your own algorithm.

852
00:41:37.440 --> 00:41:40.320
<v Speaker 1>So for anybody thinking maybe they got in late to

853
00:41:40.360 --> 00:41:42.480
<v Speaker 1>the game, because it's the discussion I had with this

854
00:41:42.559 --> 00:41:45.119
<v Speaker 1>gentleman that wants to do a YouTube. If you're thinking

855
00:41:45.119 --> 00:41:47.400
<v Speaker 1>you got in late to the game and you're thinking

856
00:41:47.440 --> 00:41:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I can't create content to compete. Now, you know, find

857
00:41:51.000 --> 00:41:54.920
<v Speaker 1>your niche find your audience, which you can do, and

858
00:41:54.960 --> 00:41:57.800
<v Speaker 1>they will keep coming back. Just be true to your audience.

859
00:41:57.920 --> 00:42:00.679
<v Speaker 1>They will come back. I found out something today that

860
00:42:00.800 --> 00:42:04.559
<v Speaker 1>shocked me. You have kids, you're familiar with it. I'm

861
00:42:04.599 --> 00:42:08.239
<v Speaker 1>sure Ryan's World. Have you ever seen Ryan's World?

862
00:42:08.480 --> 00:42:12.239
<v Speaker 2>Okay, maybe I'm gonna look that doesn't sound familiar.

863
00:42:12.440 --> 00:42:15.800
<v Speaker 1>Ryan's World is a kid named Ryan who has a brother,

864
00:42:15.920 --> 00:42:18.920
<v Speaker 1>I think two sisters, and then his mom and dad.

865
00:42:19.320 --> 00:42:23.840
<v Speaker 1>They're very young, young family, and they create content. And

866
00:42:23.880 --> 00:42:26.199
<v Speaker 1>sometimes the content is just with them playing around with

867
00:42:26.280 --> 00:42:29.800
<v Speaker 1>filters or playing games, or going on a trip somewhere

868
00:42:29.880 --> 00:42:33.840
<v Speaker 1>or learning this, and they're very just it's bright situations.

869
00:42:34.039 --> 00:42:37.440
<v Speaker 1>It's you know, the home is nice and the people

870
00:42:37.440 --> 00:42:41.400
<v Speaker 1>are nice. They have fun. And my grandson loves watching

871
00:42:41.519 --> 00:42:45.280
<v Speaker 1>Ryan's World. Matter of fact, he'll come in on a Monday.

872
00:42:46.199 --> 00:42:48.960
<v Speaker 1>He's dropped off Monday mornings and you know, Grandpa will

873
00:42:49.000 --> 00:42:52.880
<v Speaker 1>be on TV doing my segment at Fox, and I'll say, well,

874
00:42:52.920 --> 00:42:54.519
<v Speaker 1>I want to see my segment if I did one

875
00:42:54.519 --> 00:42:57.679
<v Speaker 1>from home, and he'll say, you could tape it. He

876
00:42:57.719 --> 00:43:00.239
<v Speaker 1>wants to watch Ryan's World. He doesn't know what watch

877
00:43:00.519 --> 00:43:04.599
<v Speaker 1>Grandpa on TV. But I did some searching today and

878
00:43:05.360 --> 00:43:07.480
<v Speaker 1>I was talking about that because we were watching it today,

879
00:43:07.639 --> 00:43:09.960
<v Speaker 1>Ryan's World, and I said to Gloria, I go, do

880
00:43:10.000 --> 00:43:11.519
<v Speaker 1>you think you could do that? You know, I have

881
00:43:11.519 --> 00:43:13.880
<v Speaker 1>fun on the camera like that, playing with filters and

882
00:43:13.880 --> 00:43:16.199
<v Speaker 1>the kids having a good time. She said, yeah, probably

883
00:43:16.280 --> 00:43:20.199
<v Speaker 1>doesn't pay enough. I looked it up, Sean this family,

884
00:43:20.280 --> 00:43:24.559
<v Speaker 1>Ryan's World. Thirty five million dollars a year is what

885
00:43:24.599 --> 00:43:27.719
<v Speaker 1>they're making for these videos. But not just the videos.

886
00:43:27.800 --> 00:43:30.960
<v Speaker 1>They've created a brand with Ryan's World. They sell shirts,

887
00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:34.559
<v Speaker 1>they sell toys, they sell they come into agreements, partner

888
00:43:34.599 --> 00:43:40.440
<v Speaker 1>agreements on you know, cameras, toys, artwork, photos. It's it's amazing.

889
00:43:40.519 --> 00:43:43.239
<v Speaker 1>So it's never too late. Somebody's thinking, I really want

890
00:43:43.280 --> 00:43:46.280
<v Speaker 1>to do this. I have this idea, give it a shot.

891
00:43:46.440 --> 00:43:48.000
<v Speaker 1>And see they have.

892
00:43:48.239 --> 00:43:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Forty million subscribers. Yeah, and forty point two millions. It

893
00:43:54.079 --> 00:43:58.599
<v Speaker 2>was great. That's forty point one million more than we have.

894
00:44:00.519 --> 00:44:04.639
<v Speaker 1>We're slowly growing, and it's funny we're growing growing, and then.

895
00:44:04.559 --> 00:44:06.679
<v Speaker 2>I'll start coming for your bucket share.

896
00:44:06.679 --> 00:44:09.199
<v Speaker 1>And then I will see somebody dropped off. They're not

897
00:44:09.239 --> 00:44:11.400
<v Speaker 1>subscribed anymore. It's just the way it works.

898
00:44:11.639 --> 00:44:13.719
<v Speaker 2>So at this point, at this point, we lose like

899
00:44:13.840 --> 00:44:14.719
<v Speaker 2>ten when.

900
00:44:15.000 --> 00:44:18.039
<v Speaker 1>Leaves, yeah, with somebody like ah, man, you had to

901
00:44:18.119 --> 00:44:21.079
<v Speaker 1>leave us. But this Ryan's world family though, I mean

902
00:44:21.480 --> 00:44:24.039
<v Speaker 1>thirty five million bucks a year and again, uh, they

903
00:44:24.119 --> 00:44:26.119
<v Speaker 1>just did it smart and it's not too late. If

904
00:44:26.159 --> 00:44:29.039
<v Speaker 1>you look at missus Rachel, same thing. You know, Miss

905
00:44:29.159 --> 00:44:30.760
<v Speaker 1>Rachel makes a ton of money as well.

906
00:44:31.039 --> 00:44:36.119
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, it's it's crazy, like it's hard to tell

907
00:44:36.199 --> 00:44:38.440
<v Speaker 2>somebody that you can make it big on the internet.

908
00:44:38.599 --> 00:44:41.000
<v Speaker 2>But because there are just so much right, you gotta

909
00:44:41.039 --> 00:44:43.679
<v Speaker 2>be creative. You gotta break the mold. You gotta get lucky,

910
00:44:43.800 --> 00:44:46.760
<v Speaker 2>you gotta it's not easy work.

911
00:44:47.320 --> 00:44:51.119
<v Speaker 1>Well no, yeah, I'm sure job. Nobody's editing these yeah,

912
00:44:51.159 --> 00:44:53.960
<v Speaker 1>so yeah, yeah, So all right, here here's a question

913
00:44:54.000 --> 00:44:57.360
<v Speaker 1>from Antonio and Celia. Love your show, guys, but I'm

914
00:44:57.360 --> 00:45:00.000
<v Speaker 1>having a dilemma. I have been told to clean up

915
00:45:00.199 --> 00:45:03.960
<v Speaker 1>my garage or else. My wife says it's or else.

916
00:45:04.800 --> 00:45:07.039
<v Speaker 1>There you go, just ended with that. My wife says,

917
00:45:07.039 --> 00:45:08.760
<v Speaker 1>it's time to get rid of all my towers and

918
00:45:08.840 --> 00:45:12.920
<v Speaker 1>keyboards and a few you sonic CRTs so what do

919
00:45:13.000 --> 00:45:13.280
<v Speaker 1>I do?

920
00:45:14.159 --> 00:45:19.760
<v Speaker 2>Here's my address, here's Andy's address.

921
00:45:19.840 --> 00:45:24.719
<v Speaker 1>Send it all. Yeah, uh is there a way?

922
00:45:25.360 --> 00:45:31.920
<v Speaker 2>There is a proper way. Right. So here in the beautiful,

923
00:45:32.000 --> 00:45:38.239
<v Speaker 2>brisk Midwest, Saint Joe County has a hazardous waste and

924
00:45:38.320 --> 00:45:43.039
<v Speaker 2>Electronic disposal. You just show up with the trucklow stuff.

925
00:45:43.320 --> 00:45:45.639
<v Speaker 2>They bring out a cart. You dump it in there, right.

926
00:45:45.920 --> 00:45:48.079
<v Speaker 2>They ask you if you want a receipt. You say sure,

927
00:45:49.039 --> 00:45:52.320
<v Speaker 2>They give you a receipt. Okay, I'm hard pressed to

928
00:45:52.320 --> 00:45:54.320
<v Speaker 2>tell somebody you just go in and throw it away

929
00:45:54.599 --> 00:45:56.719
<v Speaker 2>because I want to know what's in it.

930
00:45:57.079 --> 00:45:58.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I would. I would say, if you're gonna get

931
00:45:58.719 --> 00:46:00.719
<v Speaker 1>rid of the towers, make sure that those high drives

932
00:46:00.719 --> 00:46:03.559
<v Speaker 1>are pulled out. Put those they don't take up that

933
00:46:03.639 --> 00:46:05.639
<v Speaker 1>much space, right, pull our.

934
00:46:05.519 --> 00:46:07.880
<v Speaker 2>Drives, drove through them. If you're just getting looking to

935
00:46:07.880 --> 00:46:09.800
<v Speaker 2>get rid of them, beat them up, smashing with a

936
00:46:09.800 --> 00:46:12.119
<v Speaker 2>hammer or whatever. Take them apart, take the magnets out.

937
00:46:12.199 --> 00:46:12.880
<v Speaker 2>Be careful.

938
00:46:12.960 --> 00:46:16.159
<v Speaker 1>Will fly off. Though I've been hitting ahead with a magnet.

939
00:46:16.199 --> 00:46:16.719
<v Speaker 1>It's not good.

940
00:46:18.480 --> 00:46:23.119
<v Speaker 2>Magics are very strong. But I would just google your

941
00:46:23.159 --> 00:46:28.840
<v Speaker 2>county plus Hazardous waste or electronic disposal, and most municipalities

942
00:46:28.880 --> 00:46:32.519
<v Speaker 2>have a free service that you can just show up

943
00:46:32.559 --> 00:46:33.960
<v Speaker 2>and drop off electronics.

944
00:46:34.119 --> 00:46:38.440
<v Speaker 1>The Computer Technology Association also has greener gadgets. I believe

945
00:46:38.519 --> 00:46:41.320
<v Speaker 1>dot org. If you go there, they will tell you,

946
00:46:41.519 --> 00:46:44.079
<v Speaker 1>depending on where your ZIP code is, they will tell

947
00:46:44.119 --> 00:46:46.159
<v Speaker 1>you where you may be able to dispose some of this.

948
00:46:46.519 --> 00:46:50.239
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes they want a few bucks for the disposal. Other

949
00:46:50.280 --> 00:46:53.199
<v Speaker 1>times you may find people who are just companies that

950
00:46:53.239 --> 00:46:56.119
<v Speaker 1>are just taking it in and completely recycling it. So

951
00:46:56.480 --> 00:46:57.480
<v Speaker 1>greener gadgets.

952
00:46:57.800 --> 00:47:01.119
<v Speaker 2>You can also just post it up Facebook and Marketplace

953
00:47:01.519 --> 00:47:05.199
<v Speaker 2>or let it Go or whatever and say free. Yeah,

954
00:47:05.239 --> 00:47:07.679
<v Speaker 2>and you'd be surprised how many people come and pick

955
00:47:07.719 --> 00:47:10.280
<v Speaker 2>up other people's junk for free, to part it out

956
00:47:10.519 --> 00:47:12.960
<v Speaker 2>or to resell it, or to use it for their

957
00:47:13.000 --> 00:47:14.119
<v Speaker 2>own personal gain whatever.

958
00:47:14.280 --> 00:47:17.599
<v Speaker 1>Antonio, we feel your pain, though, we do.

959
00:47:18.039 --> 00:47:21.639
<v Speaker 2>I mean, do you remember when my head my friend's

960
00:47:21.719 --> 00:47:24.559
<v Speaker 2>uncle who passed, who was a who was a computer hoarder,

961
00:47:25.440 --> 00:47:29.119
<v Speaker 2>and I ended up getting hundreds of towers, Like, we

962
00:47:29.199 --> 00:47:31.039
<v Speaker 2>ended up going through hundreds of towers?

963
00:47:31.719 --> 00:47:34.960
<v Speaker 1>Wow, you know you remember all that, right? I thought

964
00:47:34.960 --> 00:47:36.679
<v Speaker 1>it was like four or five towers that you got.

965
00:47:36.719 --> 00:47:41.800
<v Speaker 2>No, in total, I helped him probably salvage one hundred

966
00:47:41.800 --> 00:47:42.679
<v Speaker 2>and fifty towers.

967
00:47:42.800 --> 00:47:43.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh, my lord.

968
00:47:44.079 --> 00:47:46.519
<v Speaker 2>Wow, yeah, because of it was. I mean, he had

969
00:47:46.559 --> 00:47:48.400
<v Speaker 2>an whole entire house full of computer stuff.

970
00:47:48.440 --> 00:47:50.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm cleaning doing. I know, I have an Antonio and

971
00:47:51.000 --> 00:47:52.800
<v Speaker 1>if you want to do this, I have a couple

972
00:47:52.800 --> 00:47:55.280
<v Speaker 1>of half nine thirty two cases, the big gigantic ones.

973
00:47:55.679 --> 00:47:58.119
<v Speaker 1>I was sick and I've got old boards sitting around,

974
00:47:58.639 --> 00:48:02.199
<v Speaker 1>popping a board in there, installing you know, a Linux

975
00:48:02.719 --> 00:48:06.639
<v Speaker 1>OS on there and selling it a workie computer, you know,

976
00:48:06.800 --> 00:48:09.400
<v Speaker 1>power supplies and it's still good. It's you know, not

977
00:48:09.480 --> 00:48:11.519
<v Speaker 1>the best at like a two fifty or three hundred,

978
00:48:11.760 --> 00:48:15.199
<v Speaker 1>just selling it working Linux computer. Somebody may want to

979
00:48:15.199 --> 00:48:17.320
<v Speaker 1>get in a Linux and pay you know, one hundred

980
00:48:17.360 --> 00:48:20.719
<v Speaker 1>bucks for this, so why not? That might be Antonio.

981
00:48:20.760 --> 00:48:22.760
<v Speaker 1>You may look at something doing something like that. That

982
00:48:22.840 --> 00:48:26.599
<v Speaker 1>might work. Ship it to me, ship it to shod.

983
00:48:26.840 --> 00:48:28.280
<v Speaker 1>All right, we got to show you a couple of things,

984
00:48:28.280 --> 00:48:31.719
<v Speaker 1>a couple of tech gadgets that I wanted to show

985
00:48:31.800 --> 00:48:33.719
<v Speaker 1>with you. This is kind of cool. Do you remember

986
00:48:33.760 --> 00:48:34.960
<v Speaker 1>having your old iPod?

987
00:48:35.239 --> 00:48:35.599
<v Speaker 2>Yes?

988
00:48:35.679 --> 00:48:39.960
<v Speaker 1>All right, this is a media player. It's very small.

989
00:48:40.880 --> 00:48:45.159
<v Speaker 1>This is from any Oasis and what it does is

990
00:48:45.199 --> 00:48:48.440
<v Speaker 1>it plays your You could have it play Spotify kids.

991
00:48:49.079 --> 00:48:51.440
<v Speaker 1>You could have a play. You know, your your music

992
00:48:51.559 --> 00:48:54.920
<v Speaker 1>off a SD card that could be inserted on the side,

993
00:48:55.320 --> 00:48:57.760
<v Speaker 1>or it says small storage on there. You can hook

994
00:48:57.800 --> 00:49:00.280
<v Speaker 1>it up to your PC and you can transfer. It

995
00:49:00.320 --> 00:49:03.360
<v Speaker 1>has a headphone jack on it as well. You can

996
00:49:03.400 --> 00:49:06.960
<v Speaker 1>bluetooth it to Bluetooth headphones. And you want to carry

997
00:49:06.960 --> 00:49:08.800
<v Speaker 1>around a media player, but you maybe don't want to

998
00:49:08.840 --> 00:49:11.039
<v Speaker 1>carry around your phone, or you want to listen to

999
00:49:11.079 --> 00:49:13.360
<v Speaker 1>music on this not on your phone. This is kind

1000
00:49:13.400 --> 00:49:15.000
<v Speaker 1>of a cool thing. It will also play.

1001
00:49:14.840 --> 00:49:19.239
<v Speaker 2>Videos, so it looks just like an iPhone four.

1002
00:49:19.719 --> 00:49:22.599
<v Speaker 1>It does. It's almost the same size. It's got a

1003
00:49:22.599 --> 00:49:24.880
<v Speaker 1>bright screen, so if you want to watch a movie,

1004
00:49:24.920 --> 00:49:27.559
<v Speaker 1>you know, you watch it like this. It's kind of cool.

1005
00:49:27.559 --> 00:49:29.519
<v Speaker 1>And I'm showing it on our video which you could

1006
00:49:29.599 --> 00:49:33.239
<v Speaker 1>check after you subscribe at YouTube tech Talk Radio. But

1007
00:49:33.360 --> 00:49:36.599
<v Speaker 1>to play Apple Music Title has all those services. The

1008
00:49:36.599 --> 00:49:39.400
<v Speaker 1>thing is you don't load a bunch of junk on it.

1009
00:49:40.239 --> 00:49:41.400
<v Speaker 1>You know, you don't have to worry. So if you

1010
00:49:41.440 --> 00:49:43.000
<v Speaker 1>want to give it to the kids to listen to music,

1011
00:49:43.320 --> 00:49:45.840
<v Speaker 1>they can do that. And it's actually a pretty cool,

1012
00:49:45.920 --> 00:49:48.760
<v Speaker 1>smart looking device. It's not that expensive. You can find

1013
00:49:48.800 --> 00:49:51.400
<v Speaker 1>it for about fifty or sixty bucks. Then the other

1014
00:49:52.360 --> 00:49:56.880
<v Speaker 1>before we take a break, Easy Quest. You've seen their products,

1015
00:49:57.119 --> 00:49:59.719
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, we've talked about them. I found a new one.

1016
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:03.400
<v Speaker 1>It has actual Ethernet port on it, so if you

1017
00:50:03.440 --> 00:50:05.880
<v Speaker 1>want to bridge an Ethernet connection you could do that.

1018
00:50:06.320 --> 00:50:11.360
<v Speaker 1>It has USB C USBA even as HDMI out, so

1019
00:50:11.400 --> 00:50:13.519
<v Speaker 1>you can hook it to an HTM. My monitor easily

1020
00:50:13.719 --> 00:50:18.000
<v Speaker 1>connects via USBC easy Quest. They're calling their new devices

1021
00:50:18.000 --> 00:50:22.000
<v Speaker 1>the Maseratis of hubs. These are really great and they're solid.

1022
00:50:22.079 --> 00:50:24.639
<v Speaker 1>You carry me around. I'd say take a look at

1023
00:50:24.679 --> 00:50:27.559
<v Speaker 1>easy Quest if you get a chance to do that. So, yes, stuff,

1024
00:50:27.719 --> 00:50:29.480
<v Speaker 1>all right, tech a quick break. We come back with

<v Speaker 1>If you don't mind, is that okay?

1035
00:50:58.920 --> 00:51:00.159
<v Speaker 2>Nineteen eighty six.

1036
00:51:00.400 --> 00:51:03.239
<v Speaker 1>All right, so if you were a kid of the nineties,

<v Speaker 1>let's see how many of these this is.

1039
00:51:08.800 --> 00:51:10.320
<v Speaker 2>This is gonna be right on my own.

1040
00:51:10.440 --> 00:51:12.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, let's see how many of these. You remember the

1041
00:51:12.800 --> 00:51:16.400
<v Speaker 1>sound of a dial up internet connection. I'm not gonna

1042
00:51:16.400 --> 00:51:24.440
<v Speaker 1>make that sound, but yes, recording songs off the radio play. Yeah,

1043
00:51:24.840 --> 00:51:27.679
<v Speaker 1>it's like DJ shush, shush up, shush up, and then

1044
00:51:27.880 --> 00:51:30.920
<v Speaker 1>hit play recorders in that song starts.

1045
00:51:31.800 --> 00:51:34.760
<v Speaker 2>I actually could go right now in Grabb's cassette that

1046
00:51:34.920 --> 00:51:37.679
<v Speaker 2>has recorded, like I have all my cassettes that I

1047
00:51:37.679 --> 00:51:39.840
<v Speaker 2>still have from.

1048
00:51:40.639 --> 00:51:43.360
<v Speaker 1>There's actually a friend of mine. Then you know, I

1049
00:51:43.360 --> 00:51:46.159
<v Speaker 1>got into radio in my late twenties, but I used

1050
00:51:46.159 --> 00:51:48.519
<v Speaker 1>to listen to him on the radio, Craig Powers. He's

1051
00:51:48.519 --> 00:51:50.840
<v Speaker 1>a guy who told me go to this broadcasting school.

1052
00:51:50.920 --> 00:51:52.800
<v Speaker 1>When I said, hey, how do I do that? And

1053
00:51:52.840 --> 00:51:56.360
<v Speaker 1>I went. I actually found a recording of Craig Powers

1054
00:51:56.360 --> 00:51:58.880
<v Speaker 1>at Kazy Why and Anaheim, and I told him I

1055
00:51:58.880 --> 00:52:00.800
<v Speaker 1>found He's like, send it to me, because you know,

1056
00:52:00.800 --> 00:52:02.480
<v Speaker 1>a lot of us DJs, we didn't keep a lot

1057
00:52:02.519 --> 00:52:04.559
<v Speaker 1>of that stuff. And it was kind of cool. All right,

1058
00:52:04.599 --> 00:52:08.039
<v Speaker 1>here's another one. Oh, I remember this calling the movie

1059
00:52:08.079 --> 00:52:10.599
<v Speaker 1>theater for Showtimes car.

1060
00:52:10.559 --> 00:52:12.599
<v Speaker 2>Or the inside of the first page of the paper.

1061
00:52:13.119 --> 00:52:15.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they would have it in there. TV guide. TV

1062
00:52:15.800 --> 00:52:16.840
<v Speaker 1>guide was your best friend.

1063
00:52:17.559 --> 00:52:21.039
<v Speaker 2>I love the No, I mean friends that had cable

1064
00:52:21.039 --> 00:52:23.280
<v Speaker 2>shirt the scrolling guide was the most amazing thing ever.

1065
00:52:23.440 --> 00:52:26.039
<v Speaker 3>Or if you had dish, No, I would actually I

1066
00:52:26.039 --> 00:52:29.239
<v Speaker 3>would go to you know, physical to routs and I

1067
00:52:29.280 --> 00:52:32.039
<v Speaker 3>would buy the TV Guide and I would open They

1068
00:52:32.039 --> 00:52:34.480
<v Speaker 3>would tell you what what was on, when was on?

1069
00:52:34.559 --> 00:52:37.199
<v Speaker 2>That whole bit Our paper had the TV guide in it.

1070
00:52:37.559 --> 00:52:41.199
<v Speaker 1>Okay, how about this actually going outside to find your friends.

1071
00:52:41.599 --> 00:52:43.480
<v Speaker 1>You didn't get on your phone and text them. You

1072
00:52:43.519 --> 00:52:44.559
<v Speaker 1>actually went outside.

1073
00:52:45.360 --> 00:52:48.000
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and I usually rolled my DIRP bike to their house.

1074
00:52:49.519 --> 00:52:53.119
<v Speaker 1>Memorizing phone numbers. How about this one?

1075
00:52:53.400 --> 00:52:56.480
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I still so to this day. I can still

1076
00:52:56.599 --> 00:52:59.440
<v Speaker 2>I still remember my parents' home phone number, both my

1077
00:52:59.480 --> 00:53:02.960
<v Speaker 2>parents stuffe number, of Kaitlin Stuf phone number, and one

1078
00:53:03.039 --> 00:53:05.320
<v Speaker 2>or two of my friend's home phone numbers that no

1079
00:53:05.400 --> 00:53:06.320
<v Speaker 2>longer exist.

1080
00:53:06.639 --> 00:53:09.400
<v Speaker 1>Back then, we couldn't do that. Back in the nineties.

1081
00:53:09.880 --> 00:53:12.679
<v Speaker 1>You had, I mean, we didn't have a device. You

1082
00:53:12.719 --> 00:53:15.679
<v Speaker 1>had to remember everything. Yep, you didn't carry a rolodex

1083
00:53:15.719 --> 00:53:18.119
<v Speaker 1>around with you unless you were you know, total gate.

1084
00:53:19.360 --> 00:53:22.159
<v Speaker 1>Let's see the excitement of getting actual mail.

1085
00:53:23.320 --> 00:53:24.880
<v Speaker 2>You know, that was why I still I still send

1086
00:53:24.960 --> 00:53:25.800
<v Speaker 2>real mail to people.

1087
00:53:25.960 --> 00:53:28.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I like I like getting mail.

1088
00:53:28.039 --> 00:53:30.360
<v Speaker 2>Post cards. Every time we travel, we sent post cards.

1089
00:53:30.400 --> 00:53:33.199
<v Speaker 1>How about this one playing in fast food restaurant playgrounds

1090
00:53:33.199 --> 00:53:36.159
<v Speaker 1>for hours, you know, the ballpit, the slide, the whole bit.

1091
00:53:36.920 --> 00:53:38.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and they were probably disgusting.

1092
00:53:39.079 --> 00:53:43.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Blockbuster runs on Friday nights. Friday night, the video

1093
00:53:44.239 --> 00:53:46.400
<v Speaker 1>on you gotta get a video and then here's the

1094
00:53:46.400 --> 00:53:48.719
<v Speaker 1>other one. Using actual encyclopedias for homework.

1095
00:53:48.840 --> 00:53:51.039
<v Speaker 2>One of the first things that we ever had for

1096
00:53:51.079 --> 00:53:53.599
<v Speaker 2>our computer was Encyclopedia Britannica.

1097
00:53:54.400 --> 00:53:56.559
<v Speaker 1>You didn't have the books, the interactive well, we.

1098
00:53:56.519 --> 00:54:00.760
<v Speaker 2>Had the books too. We got the Macromedia Flash Encyclopedia

1099
00:54:00.840 --> 00:54:03.719
<v Speaker 2>Britannica or they had like twelve CDs and you could

1100
00:54:03.719 --> 00:54:05.719
<v Speaker 2>interactively go through the entire encyclopedia.

1101
00:54:05.760 --> 00:54:07.320
<v Speaker 1>You know, we used to have a thing in the

1102
00:54:07.400 --> 00:54:10.559
<v Speaker 1>radio station. It was a book all about your musical

1103
00:54:10.679 --> 00:54:14.320
<v Speaker 1>artist and you know, like gold records, and when and

1104
00:54:14.599 --> 00:54:17.000
<v Speaker 1>when you wanted to mention something about the artist, you'd

1105
00:54:17.039 --> 00:54:20.000
<v Speaker 1>have to flip through pages and pages and pages of stuff,

1106
00:54:20.280 --> 00:54:22.199
<v Speaker 1>and so you had to plan, Okay, what song am

1107
00:54:22.199 --> 00:54:22.760
<v Speaker 1>I playing here?

1108
00:54:22.760 --> 00:54:22.920
<v Speaker 2>Here?

1109
00:54:22.920 --> 00:54:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Here? It's different now in radio, you know. Now you

1110
00:54:25.960 --> 00:54:29.079
<v Speaker 1>have Wikipedia so you could quickly look it up, you know,

1111
00:54:29.320 --> 00:54:32.159
<v Speaker 1>or and over the time you remember some of that stuff.

1112
00:54:32.239 --> 00:54:34.239
<v Speaker 1>But I'm getting older. I messed it up once in

1113
00:54:34.239 --> 00:54:36.880
<v Speaker 1>a while. But either way, it was, it was. It

1114
00:54:36.920 --> 00:54:38.639
<v Speaker 1>was kind of cool. But if you were a kid

1115
00:54:38.639 --> 00:54:41.239
<v Speaker 1>in the nineties, those are the things you probably won't

1116
00:54:41.280 --> 00:54:43.440
<v Speaker 1>never forget it.

1117
00:54:43.639 --> 00:54:45.639
<v Speaker 2>Knowing how to read the Dewey decimal system.

1118
00:54:45.760 --> 00:54:47.280
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, yeah.

1119
00:54:47.199 --> 00:54:50.480
<v Speaker 2>You went to the cord catalog alphabetically and then it

1120
00:54:50.480 --> 00:54:53.440
<v Speaker 2>gave you a four digit number with a period and

1121
00:54:53.639 --> 00:54:56.039
<v Speaker 2>another number and then a period or another number. I

1122
00:54:56.199 --> 00:54:57.760
<v Speaker 2>don't remember what it all means.

1123
00:54:58.280 --> 00:54:59.880
<v Speaker 1>But you knew how to use it. There you go.

1124
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:01.800
<v Speaker 1>Hopefully you know how to use the internet. You can
