Of course, 6 00:00:16.559 --> 00:00:19.800 yesterday they had to clarify what he meant when he 7 00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:22.280 said that Trump supporters are garbage. 8 00:00:23.079 --> 00:00:23.199 Uh. 9 00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:29.359 And today they're having to defend him biting the arms 10 00:00:29.399 --> 00:00:32.000 and legs of babies. They're eating the babies at the 11 00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:34.520 White House. And that's where we kick off Swamp Watch. 12 00:00:35.719 --> 00:00:37.200 Swamp is horrible. 13 00:00:37.320 --> 00:00:38.679 The government doesn't work. 14 00:00:38.799 --> 00:00:43.799 Come man, make it like a reality TV show.

I've never 32 00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:32.879 eaten a baby. White House spokesperson Andrew Bates says that 33 00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:37.480 he was jokingly. It was a joking he done as 34 00:01:37.519 --> 00:01:37.959 a joke. 35 00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:41.560 He didn't actually mean to consume the flesh of a human. 36 00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:45.359 It is an odd thing to do several times to 37 00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:47.840 put your mouth on a strange babies. 38 00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:51.000 Have you once been presented with a baby. 39 00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:54.280 And fake bitten its leg or put its foot in 40 00:01:54.480 --> 00:01:55.079 your mouth? 41 00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:58.760 Not the foot, the foot, that's nasty. But I've bitten 42 00:01:58.840 --> 00:02:01.840 a good elbow arm. You've seen those things that they 43 00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:03.280 look like Little Michelin Tye. 44 00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:05.560 I have never bitten a baby. 45 00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:07.920 You have. 46 00:02:08.159 --> 00:02:09.479 It looks odd babies. 47 00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:14.000 Then, I've never seen an ugly baby. 48 00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:16.520 I'm sorry what I've never seen an ugly baby? Oh girl, 49 00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:20.280 I got pictures. I have had some ugly babies in 50 00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:25.280 my time. That's awful. Well, God doesn't make ugly babies. 51 00:02:25.319 --> 00:02:32.759 He only makes ugly people like you. This on the 52 00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:37.000 heels of Karine Jean Pierre trying to explain what President 53 00:02:37.080 --> 00:02:40.800 Biden meant when he said Trump supporters of garbage. 54 00:02:41.039 --> 00:02:44.560 Clarify he was not calling Trump supporters garbage, which is 55 00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:45.840 why he put out This. 56 00:02:45.919 --> 00:02:48.400 Is why he wanted to make sure that we put out. 57 00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:52.560 A statement that clarified what he meant and what he 58 00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:53.599 was trying to say. 59 00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:55.439 And so just want to make that very clear. 60 00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:57.960 For folks who are watching. We detailed for you earlier 61 00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:01.560 in the show about this garbage and costume that Donald 62 00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:04.879 Trump then wore yesterday at his rally in Wisconsin, which 63 00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:07.479 again I think was an absolute win for the Trump 64 00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:11.599 campaign for them to take advantage of this garbage comment 65 00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:14.560 and say fine, and we've already seen people lined up 66 00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:19.039 for his events today in Nevada and Arizona wearing those 67 00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:23.439 orange vests, dressed literally as garbage men, so that they 68 00:03:23.479 --> 00:03:25.360 can take advantage of this and try to spin this 69 00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:28.879 the best way for them. Now, while he was wearing 70 00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:33.080 his garbage men outfit last night in Wisconsin, he said 71 00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:37.520 something else that the Harris campaign is trying to capitalize on. 72 00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:39.319 Here's what he said, and my people. 73 00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:41.360 Told me about four weeks ago, I was saying, no, 74 00:03:41.479 --> 00:03:43.240 I want to protect the people. I want to protect 75 00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:45.840 the women of our country. I want to protect the women, Sir, 76 00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:49.319 please don't say that. Why they said, we think it's 77 00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:52.319 we think it's very inappropriate for you to say so. 78 00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:58.240 Why he's talking specifically about keeping criminal illeal aliens out 79 00:03:58.280 --> 00:03:59.120 of the United States. 80 00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:01.520 That's how he wants to I'm president, I want to 81 00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:03.240 protect the women of our country. 82 00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:04.159 The su. 83 00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:15.400 They said, Sir, I just think it's inappropriate for you 84 00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:17.199 to say, pay these guys a lot of money. Can 85 00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:20.720 you believe in? They said, Well, I'm going to do 86 00:04:20.759 --> 00:04:22.399 it whether the women like it or not. 87 00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:23.639 I'm going to protect. 88 00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:27.160 Them, whether the women like it or not. Now, according 89 00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:30.839 to the Harris campaign spokesperson Sara pinat Chatika, she said 90 00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:34.040 that Trump thinks he knows better than the women of America. 91 00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:37.879 Another spokesperson said that the comment was the defining line 92 00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:43.360 of the Trump campaign. Today. Kamala Harris took some questions 93 00:04:43.399 --> 00:04:46.000 before she made her way. I think she was in 94 00:04:46.040 --> 00:04:49.800 Wisconsin before she's making her way towards New Mexica, Sorry, 95 00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:51.680 Nevada and Arizona. 96 00:04:51.839 --> 00:04:56.759 It actually is very offensive to women in terms of 97 00:04:56.879 --> 00:05:01.519 not understanding their agency their authority and their ability to 98 00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:05.480 make decisions about their own lives, including their own bodies. 99 00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:09.279 And this is just the latest on a series of 100 00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:12.399 reveals by the former president of how he thinks about 101 00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:17.240 women and their agency. 102 00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:20.560 Trump has used this line before, this protector of women 103 00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:25.920 line before several weeks ago, and he said, as president, 104 00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:28.680 I have to be your protector. This was in September. 105 00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:30.720 I hope you don't make too much of it. I 106 00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:33.120 hope the fake news doesn't go, oh, he wants to 107 00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:36.839 be their protector. Well, I am as president. I have 108 00:05:36.920 --> 00:05:40.480 to be your protector. This is another one of those 109 00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:42.759 lines where and I think we've seen so many of 110 00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:47.360 them in this campaign. It's not going to ring. I 111 00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:51.560 don't think that changes minds of women, specifically who are 112 00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:54.040 already going to said they're going to vote for Trump, 113 00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:55.759 or if they're on the fence. I don't know if 114 00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:58.920 this is the thing that the Harris campaign hopes it is. 115 00:05:59.079 --> 00:05:59.959 It's so granular. 116 00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:02.639 Are at this point even if it changes the mind 117 00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:06.480 or gets a fraction of women to the ballot box, 118 00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:09.160 because they're so pissed off by it, it's worth something. 119 00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:14.040 They have already started some legal challenges to the voting 120 00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:16.439 laws that exist in a couple of different places. We've 121 00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:20.120 talked about Virginia. There's also in Pennsylvania some problems. And 122 00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:22.920 one of the issues that Trump has right now is 123 00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:30.079 he's using a ten thousand foot lens to look at 124 00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:33.480 some of the things that have shown up in Pennsylvania, 125 00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:38.199 claiming that their proof that there is widespread fraud, when 126 00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:41.040 in fact, in cases like this, it's proof that the 127 00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:45.720 system caught the problem and is fixing the problem before 128 00:06:45.759 --> 00:06:46.879 it gets to election day. 129 00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:50.079 Police are releasing new details about that suspect accused of 130 00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:53.560 setting off the incendiary devices at ballot boxes in Washington 131 00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:57.040 and Oregon. They say the suspect is between thirty and 132 00:06:57.079 --> 00:07:00.279 forty years old. Short or balding hair was seen pulling 133 00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:02.480 up to one of the ballot boxes in that volvo. 134 00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:05.079 They say he has a wealth of experience in metal 135 00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:08.560 fabrication and welding, and that it's very possible he will 136 00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:11.439 strike again at other drop box locations. 137 00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:14.879 Interesting they know exactly who this guy is. 138 00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:18.680 They all had the phrases the devices did free Gaza 139 00:07:18.759 --> 00:07:24.279 or free Palestine? North Korea test fired in ICBM for 140 00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:28.319 the first time in almost a year today demonstrating, they say, 141 00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:31.959 a potential advancement and its ability to launch long range 142 00:07:32.040 --> 00:07:34.319 nuclear attacks on the mainland US. 143 00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:37.079 It was meant to grab our attention. 144 00:07:37.399 --> 00:07:40.000 It hasn't because we're a bunch of adults dressed up 145 00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:44.600 for Halloween sharing a Dodger's victory, which they should have 146 00:07:44.680 --> 00:07:47.639 planned for. If North Korea did this tomorrow, maybe it 147 00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:48.959 would get a little bit more play. 148 00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:50.759 I don't see a lot of people talking about it. 149 00:07:50.839 --> 00:07:53.079 You think Kim Jong un was watching the World Series 150 00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:54.759 No watch proof? 151 00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:55.279 Got it? 152 00:07:55.399 --> 00:07:55.560 Yeah? 153 00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:56.000 Got it? 154 00:07:56.560 --> 00:07:59.800 Kim Jong Un called it an appropriate military action to 155 00:07:59.800 --> 00:08:02.519 sh you know, North Korea's resolve to respond to its 156 00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:04.879 enemy's moves that have threatened the North safety. 157 00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:08.120 One of the things coming out of DC today involves 158 00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:13.079 New York's politicians. A House subcommittee has referred former Governor 159 00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:18.240 Andrew Cuomo to the Justice Department for potential prosecution. They 160 00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:22.959 say that he lied to Congress about COVID. He was 161 00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:27.079 accused of engaging in a conscious, calculated effort to avoid 162 00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:31.120 accountability for his handling of nursing homes where thousands of 163 00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:33.279 people died of cover. Remember, they were sending people to 164 00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:36.960 nursing homes out of the hospitals and then infecting everybody 165 00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:43.240 the most vulnerable. This came from the House Select Subcommittee 166 00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:46.080 on the Coronavirus Pandemic, and the referral to the DOJ 167 00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:49.919 centers on some closed door testimony that the former governor 168 00:08:49.960 --> 00:08:53.720 gave to the committee when he said that he had 169 00:08:53.759 --> 00:08:57.960 not reviewed a state Health Department report that deflected blame 170 00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:00.200 for the deaths of people in those New York sing 171 00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:03.720 homes in early twenty twenty. He's been one of those 172 00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:05.720 guys who caught a lot of flak for the way 173 00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:08.240 that that was handled in the state of New York. 174 00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:13.360 Do you want to hear about a haunted road? 175 00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:14.480 Is there such a thing? 176 00:09:14.879 --> 00:09:19.000 Yes, there are several across this great country of America, 177 00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:25.360 like in Chicago Archer Avenue. Deep in the heart of 178 00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:29.360 Chicago lies an old road known as Archer Avenue that 179 00:09:29.480 --> 00:09:33.360 is said to haunt all of its visitors. Legend has 180 00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:37.279 it now. Many decades ago, a young woman named Mary 181 00:09:38.039 --> 00:09:40.879 was walking home from a school dance when she was 182 00:09:40.919 --> 00:09:42.919 tragically killed in a hit and run. 183 00:09:44.440 --> 00:09:45.679 Still don't know who did it. 184 00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:50.639 Mary's parents sadly buried their little girl in Resurrection Cemetery. 185 00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:54.919 Resurrection Cemetery I bet you can tell where this tale 186 00:09:54.960 --> 00:10:00.440 is going. Many years have passed, the crime remains unsolved. However, 187 00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:04.679 the tale still haunts residents because for decades. 188 00:10:04.799 --> 00:10:07.720 Story after story after story. 189 00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:12.120 Of drivers near the dance hall picking up a young 190 00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:14.799 hitchhiker donning a party dress. 191 00:10:14.960 --> 00:10:17.000 What She remains. 192 00:10:16.559 --> 00:10:20.600 Silent until she reaches the cemetery, at which she demands 193 00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:23.679 to be let out of the vehicle. She then vanishes 194 00:10:23.840 --> 00:10:29.200 into thin air. Would you pick up a little girl 195 00:10:29.240 --> 00:10:32.440 that was a hitchhiker in a prom dress? 196 00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:35.799 I don't think so. 197 00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:40.039 You'd probably pull over, call someone and wait till the 198 00:10:40.080 --> 00:10:43.080 police got there. You don't want to be in the 199 00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:45.320 car with a strange girl in a prom dress. 200 00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:49.120 Not fifty year old me, No, No, sixteen year old 201 00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:51.559 me maybe, but not fifteen year old me or fifty. 202 00:10:51.279 --> 00:10:52.039 Year old sorry? 203 00:10:52.159 --> 00:10:52.320 Right? 204 00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:56.639 What age do you cut that off?

If you're 213 00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:33.039 having trouble finding her, just look in your rear view 214 00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:36.879 mirror at your back seat. There it is said you 215 00:11:36.879 --> 00:11:40.559 will find the bloody bride staring at you as you 216 00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:46.000 try to keep your eyes on the road. That didn't 217 00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:48.519 scare you, not as much as the first one. The 218 00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:53.240 girl in the car. Yeah, yeah, because of the legal implications. 219 00:11:53.240 --> 00:11:55.440 If somebody saw you with a strange girl. 220 00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:57.399 She's got to do is make one allegation and then 221 00:11:57.480 --> 00:11:58.639 I'm just upscrewed. 222 00:11:58.720 --> 00:12:04.799 Right, all right, tech Talk takes on a spooky feeling today. 223 00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:06.559 The machines are getting smarter. 224 00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:11.559 This is tech Talk, brought to you by Skynet. 225 00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:19.000 Mark Saltzman nailed his Halloween costume, addressing like, what was 226 00:12:19.039 --> 00:12:22.559 the name of the character Al Bundy to call him 227 00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:23.279 Ed Bundy. 228 00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:24.879 Yeah, isn't that a serial killer? 229 00:12:25.039 --> 00:12:25.960 That's Ted Bundy. 230 00:12:26.080 --> 00:12:26.240 Yeah. 231 00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:32.080 Buy you and your wife look incredible. 232 00:12:32.240 --> 00:12:35.399 Thank you. Yeah. So we chatted about this last Thursday. 233 00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:39.039 For you know, nothing screams technology then Halloween costumes. 234 00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:39.480 Whatever. 235 00:12:40.120 --> 00:12:44.120 But I'm happy to uh to uh to go there. 236 00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:46.440 But yeah, so I just shared with your producers some 237 00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:48.840 photos from last Saturday night, we have an annual Halloween 238 00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:50.679 party at our place. So yeah, we were Peggy and 239 00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:53.679 al Bundy and then funny enough. Okay, it's a thirty 240 00:12:53.720 --> 00:12:56.240 year old TV show. What are the odds that the 241 00:12:56.240 --> 00:12:59.679 first couple that walked into our party were also Nikky 242 00:12:59.720 --> 00:13:03.399 and a Bundan? Yeah, like seriously, out of all the 243 00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:06.519 costumes out there. But yeah, we had some fun with it, 244 00:13:06.600 --> 00:13:09.440 and we had some really good ones. If you want 245 00:13:09.480 --> 00:13:11.399 to take a look over your listeners want to check 246 00:13:11.440 --> 00:13:13.600 it out. These are on Facebook. I didn't put these 247 00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:16.799 on X but it's Mark Saltzman m A R C 248 00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:21.000 s A L t Z M A N and you'll see. Yeah, 249 00:13:21.039 --> 00:13:23.159 my buddy who was Trump was great and you have 250 00:13:23.240 --> 00:13:24.360 the blood bloody. 251 00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:26.240 Here friends all nailed it. 252 00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:28.919 Yeah, yeah, right, we have fun. It's good time. And 253 00:13:29.080 --> 00:13:30.519 he says Halloween it was just for kids. 254 00:13:30.600 --> 00:13:32.639 Can I tell you I love that dramatic lighting too? 255 00:13:32.799 --> 00:13:36.279 Yeah? I think I did too. That's very relaxing. 256 00:13:36.879 --> 00:13:39.320 Well, thank you, thank you. Yeah, we had some lights 257 00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:42.120 and some a fog machine. I bought it off Amazon 258 00:13:42.159 --> 00:13:43.879 for like forty bucks. It was awesome and it has 259 00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:45.639 colored lights with it too, very cool. 260 00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:48.440 Yeah, my Amazon last night, as we were sitting down 261 00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:52.759 for the World series, my wife and I had a 262 00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:56.360 discussion about downloading the latest iOS eight. I mean, listen, 263 00:13:56.440 --> 00:13:58.200 we have some pretty hot discussions in our house. 264 00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:04.960 Operating system updates definitely is iOS steamy and I I'm 265 00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:07.480 religious about as soon as it tells me that there's 266 00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:09.440 a note, I'll even check when it doesn't tell me 267 00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:11.679 there's a notification to see if there are any updates 268 00:14:11.679 --> 00:14:14.000 in the general iOS for whatever phone I'm using, and 269 00:14:14.039 --> 00:14:15.320 I download them right away. 270 00:14:15.399 --> 00:14:15.919 Is that good? 271 00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:16.240 Bad? 272 00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:17.440 It's good, it's good. 273 00:14:17.480 --> 00:14:20.720 Most people have that little red one by their settings 274 00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:23.799 right which means they have not downloaded. The general rule 275 00:14:23.799 --> 00:14:26.039 of thumb is to set it to automatically update or 276 00:14:26.080 --> 00:14:29.480 remember to do it yourself. The only caveat is that 277 00:14:29.519 --> 00:14:31.799 if you have a phone that's a few years old, like. 278 00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:33.960 I'm going back, you know, four or. 279 00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:37.399 Five, six years old, it is possible that the operating 280 00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:41.039 system update can slow things down. But it's the lesser 281 00:14:41.039 --> 00:14:45.080 of two evils because when you do an iOS A update, 282 00:14:45.440 --> 00:14:49.919 it will squash bugs, including security vulnerabilities that they find. 283 00:14:49.919 --> 00:14:52.440 The engineers find them, and so it's better to be 284 00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:55.600 protected and have your device run out a little bit slower, 285 00:14:55.919 --> 00:14:58.519 but generally the rule of thumb is yes. And it's 286 00:14:58.559 --> 00:15:00.360 not just for your phone, but for your lap top. 287 00:15:01.039 --> 00:15:04.000 Anything that has an operating system, you should have it 288 00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:07.919 updated because they add new features, they fix problems, and 289 00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:11.240 in this case with Apple it's called iOS eighteen Dot one. 290 00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:15.600 It has all the new Apple Intelligence features or AI. 291 00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:20.120 You know, there's spin on AI instead of artificial intelligence. 292 00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:22.720 The company calls it Apple Intelligence. So I wrote a 293 00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:26.440 piece for Reader's Digest that was published yesterday on five 294 00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:29.039 reasons to upgrade, aside from the fact. 295 00:15:28.799 --> 00:15:30.480 That you should always. 296 00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:34.039 But if you've got iPhone fifteen or sixteen, you can 297 00:15:34.120 --> 00:15:37.799 take the iPhone fifteen pro, I should say, and pro max. 298 00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:41.039 Those are last year's more advanced models, or any of 299 00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:44.320 the newer iPhone sixteen models. Then you could take advantage 300 00:15:44.360 --> 00:15:48.440 of the new things like the hearing aid feature. If 301 00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:52.519 you have AirPods pro too, you can turn those into 302 00:15:52.799 --> 00:15:57.320 hearing aids of sorts like regular hearing aids. They can boost, 303 00:15:57.320 --> 00:16:00.559 of course, conversations and other sounds around you, and it. 304 00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:01.519 Works really well. 305 00:16:01.519 --> 00:16:05.600 It's for those who have mild to moderate moderate hearing loss, 306 00:16:05.720 --> 00:16:08.440 so not for someone that needs like you know, real 307 00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:12.600 dedicated hearing aids. But it's pretty cool recording phone calls. 308 00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:15.840 You actually don't need a new iPhone for this feature. Now, 309 00:16:16.200 --> 00:16:18.799 when you after you do the update, Gary and Shannon, 310 00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:20.799 when you're on a phone call that you want to save, 311 00:16:21.039 --> 00:16:24.200 maybe it's with a loved one, or if you're a 312 00:16:24.279 --> 00:16:27.799 journalist like me and it's great to record interviews, then 313 00:16:27.960 --> 00:16:30.200 you will see a record button now on the top 314 00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:33.879 left corner. During a call, it then gives it tells 315 00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:36.399 the person that you're chatting with that you're recording both 316 00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:39.200 visually and verbally. You're going to hear it, and then 317 00:16:39.320 --> 00:16:42.320 it'll be saved in your note section. If you have 318 00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:45.960 one of the newer iPhones with AI or Apple Intelligence 319 00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:49.879 that it'll also transcribe that phone call for you if 320 00:16:49.879 --> 00:16:52.240 you find that handy for work purposes. 321 00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:52.879 Great. 322 00:16:53.080 --> 00:16:55.159 Yeah, where was this twenty years ago when we were 323 00:16:55.200 --> 00:16:56.960 reporters out in the streets. 324 00:16:56.559 --> 00:17:00.679 I know, right, So yeah, it's a great update. Smarter 325 00:17:00.840 --> 00:17:03.879 SERI now, so even if you stumble, like if you say, hey, 326 00:17:03.879 --> 00:17:06.079 take me to one two three Smith Street, I mean 327 00:17:06.680 --> 00:17:10.880 Smith Avenue, it'll now know you meant Smith Avenue. Like 328 00:17:10.920 --> 00:17:14.839 it's getting more intelligent and more conversational. Another reason to 329 00:17:14.920 --> 00:17:21.079 update our writing tools. If you're writing messages in mail, messages, notes, pages, 330 00:17:21.640 --> 00:17:23.920 or any third party app like a social media post 331 00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:27.000 you're about to post, then when you're writing it, you 332 00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:29.279 tapped the little arrow on top of the keyboard and 333 00:17:29.359 --> 00:17:33.240 it'll suggest different ways to write what you're writing, and 334 00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:37.480 you can even select tone like friendly, professional, concise, and 335 00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:40.279 it'll write it for you using AI. And then finally, 336 00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:43.359 iPhone's a bit late to the game on this one 337 00:17:43.400 --> 00:17:45.599 because Android's had it for a bit, but it'll fix 338 00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:50.160 up your photos by removing unwanted objects. So you've got 339 00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:53.480 someone ruining your perfect shot on a beach with a sunset, 340 00:17:53.799 --> 00:17:56.400 and there's a guy with a speedo that shouldn't be 341 00:17:56.440 --> 00:17:59.319 wearing one behind you or your partner. 342 00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:02.240 You get, Well, it's always the people, you know, it's 343 00:18:02.240 --> 00:18:02.759 like a nude beat. 344 00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:04.279 It's like always the people you should not be on 345 00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:06.519 a nude beach or where you know, sorry I shouldn't 346 00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:08.839 go there, But it's always like the people that you really. 347 00:18:09.279 --> 00:18:11.039 Maybe want to be where, you know, all. 348 00:18:11.000 --> 00:18:12.720 Right, I've never been to a nude beach. 349 00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:14.359 Well, I'm just saying. 350 00:18:14.440 --> 00:18:17.640 I'm just saying that people who wear the revealing outfits 351 00:18:17.720 --> 00:18:21.799 are often maybe they shouldn't be, but so can Now 352 00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:25.480 it'll automatically remove those people behind you, or it'll at 353 00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:27.200 least highlight it and you can tap to remove it. 354 00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:27.680 It's up to you. 355 00:18:27.680 --> 00:18:30.839 So lots of great stuff in iOS eighteen dot one. 356 00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:34.440 And don't send me hate mail for suggesting that if 357 00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:36.559 you don't have an amazing body, that you should not 358 00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:37.359 wear a bathing suit. 359 00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:39.559 I wasn't going there, but you know, the advanced move 360 00:18:39.599 --> 00:18:41.680 would instead of just taking those people out of the picture, 361 00:18:41.720 --> 00:18:43.920 would just add a bathing suit to them. 362 00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:45.079 Yeah, that would be. 363 00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:49.519 That's really advanced AI for sure.
