Actually, it's not that bad right now. It was really bad early on like I was going to. 27 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:09,640 It's just, it was just par for the mood that I'm in. I had words with Christina this morning on the way to school because 28 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:16,600 it went those big teenager, you know, just a big mouth, you know what I mean? Then and she 29 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:22,600 sometimes she just forgets that, you know, if you say it in a normal tonal voice, it's okay, you know, 30 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:31,800 she gets so defensive. It really it really throws me off whack when when I'm with my daughter 31 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:37,480 after saying it just like bugs me for the rest of the day. It hurts me than more than her turn, right? 32 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:42,040 I guess that's it. Well, once in a while, I just got to say, please don't talk to your mom that way. 33 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,800 Don't talk to me that way. Don't talk to anyone that way. You're not going to get anywhere in life. 34 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,800 And you know what? In the past couple of weeks, I've talked to a lot of grownups who talk like that. 35 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:54,120 And it's annoying. It really is like no one ever said, hey, shut up. 36 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:02,040 So as always, when I'm feeling a little bit blue and I just don't know what to do, I reach down 37 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:08,280 deep into the pod safe music bag of tricks. And I come up with this song, which always makes me feel good. 38 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:12,360 You may sing a lot. You may sing a lot. 39 00:06:13,750 --> 00:06:51,560 [ Music ] 40 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:56,040 Venus and everything is going my way. 41 00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:01,480 Yeah. The Vinci's notebook and my enormous penis from the pod safe music network. 42 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaking of which, check this out. 43 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,880 Hey Adam, it's Gizelle from San Diego. 44 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:11,080 You know, I was thinking about it and I wasn't going to say anything, but I'm on my way to work. 45 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:15,800 And I just have to tell you, I got really pissed off at you for saying that you thought I was 46 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:20,280 speaking my last song all to you. I was totally not taking it. 47 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:26,680 So anyway, I got pissed off and I stopped listening to your show. I have to admit it. I'm sorry. 48 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,920 I stopped listening. And then I saw my ex-boyfriend over the weekend. 49 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:36,440 Got all horny. Went out with him. I saw a guy that went like you. 50 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:41,320 I kid you not. He had blonde hair. He wasn't as cute as you, but he did kind of look like you. 51 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:47,240 Totally reminded me of you. And I got all horny again. Went home and, you know, 52 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:55,640 anyway, I made me think about you and I missed you. And I really really want to meet you. 53 00:07:55,640 --> 00:08:00,920 And I really really want to do you. Anyway, if that makes me crazy, then I'm crazy. 54 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:09,240 I just wanted you to know how I felt. And hopefully we can get together someday and get crazy together. Bye. 55 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,120 I wish I had time to use my enormous penis. I certainly have opportunity. 56 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,680 Well, Giselle, I'm sorry. I really, you know, a couple of the people said to me, 57 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,360 they really thought it sounded like you were reading off a piece of paper last time. 58 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,320 So I didn't mean to offend you in that regard. How far is San Diego from San Francisco? 59 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,520 I'm going Sunday. I'm going to be on San Francisco next week. 60 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:35,960 We don't celebrate Thanksgiving here. So maybe there might be some lost souls to celebrate with 61 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,960 in San Francisco at the office. Giselle, if you want to come 62 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:46,280 celebrate Thanksgiving, then what am I doing? 63 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:53,240 Hi Adam. I see you still haven't found out to change the message at the beginning of the recording. 64 00:08:53,240 --> 00:09:00,040 Okay. I can't live with that. I have a complaint to make. So this pod show plus 65 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:04,600 unbeater thing that I am currently getting when I try to go to any of the pod show sites. 66 00:09:05,560 --> 00:09:10,760 We interrupt your pod show and be key pod show social media experience for a taste of the 67 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:17,720 plus. Fine. I've had a taste. Now I want to go and look at the shows that I want to go look at. 68 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:24,040 There's no sign on here saying whether this is because of a technical issue or whether this is going to 69 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:30,200 be, you know, try again in an hour. Try again in a couple of days. I'm not liking this dude. 70 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,840 I'm missing my shows. I want them back. Thank you very much. 71 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:40,040 Hi. Yeah. I apologize for that. What happened was we had an outage yesterday. I'm not 72 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,960 quite sure how long it lasted. I think at least 30 minutes, maybe even an hour and it was like 73 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:50,440 an infrastructure thing. And I've come to learn that, you know, someone says, hey, it's this 74 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:54,040 and this and this and the infrastructure and that's it. I just wait and then wait from to fix it 75 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:58,360 and they, they always do. But what happened in that case is automatically 76 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:03,880 our unleash page rolled over and went live, which of course we had changed for the unleash, 77 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:09,800 which was scheduled downtime. And without a doubt, that page should have changed for this 78 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,920 downtime. But I think that people were just trying to get stuff up in a hurry and didn't want 79 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:17,160 to bother with with any of the details. But I apologize. That was not the right message. 80 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,880 Absolutely. You mentioned something very interesting there at the beginning of 81 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:28,600 at the beginning of your comment that the phone, the phone lines, the daily source code 82 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,040 voicemail that you call to leave a message. Wait a minute. Those numbers of course. 83 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,600 And that's for if you're in the United States. If you're in the United Kingdom, 84 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,600 we have a number especially for you. 85 00:11:09,560 --> 00:11:14,040 So I heard something really interesting on the BBC radio one. I think it was a 86 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:18,200 was the Chris Moile show and I was trying to remember the name of what they called it. I 87 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:24,920 think they called it the date diversion line. It was actually very funny. The concept is you use one 88 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:30,200 of those phone numbers. Like if you're in the US, you say, hey, you know, call me my US cell phone number 89 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:37,480 is 20665657. And in the UK, you can use the UK number. But since it doesn't have a greeting, 90 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:42,920 it's kind of undefined like it could be anyone's voice mail. And so if you meet someone 91 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,440 who wants to go out with you or is desperately trying to get a date and ask you for your phone 92 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:50,840 number, you give them the daily source code number instead. And then when they call in, 93 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:55,400 we'll play the comments back. We'll play the recordings back or what those people said. 94 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,800 So feel free to do that or anything else you want to do, they are after all your phone line numbers. 95 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:06,040 Hi, I'm Matt and Newton here. Hope I find you well. I just like to comment on the situation 96 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:12,840 or the conversation rather between yourselves and the man and woman who was speaking about 97 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:21,080 Port City PD. I found the conversation fascinating for several reasons, but I just wanted to say that 98 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:29,320 for me the strap line for you also the podcasting is Adam Curry. It's never been true. 99 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:37,160 That conversation, I have no idea why it really hit the spot for me. I think it almost bruised 100 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:44,760 the gap between reality and virtual technology etc. And podcasting and I really think that 101 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:53,880 that's the sort of thing podcasting should be and it really hit the spot for me. The lady that was 102 00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:02,680 was speaking, I just want to say to her, you feel a fantastic job and I'm sure you make some 103 00:13:02,680 --> 00:13:10,040 fantastic family therapists and just thank you on the last days that you helped. I hope 104 00:13:10,680 --> 00:13:16,200 thank you well and I love to say and keep doing what you did. Take care. Thank you. 105 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:21,000 Folder? Scruncher? Bet you was a folder. Well, I appreciate the comment and you're right. 106 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:30,040 We do try to keep it civil here on the source. So this is a reference to Susanna Robin from 107 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:35,080 Inside Works, calling in about the Port City PD promo. And along the way in the conversation 108 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:40,520 in this back and forth, we've discussed the placement of where's my fucking latte, 109 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:45,480 which is a fantastic show, which Mark Yoshimoto Namcoff does, you know, from Pacific Coast 110 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:52,120 Hellway. And it's essentially diaries of executive assistance or personal assistance of Hollywood. 111 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:57,640 So not just of stars, but also of directors, producers, etc. And they're really, really entertaining 112 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:05,560 to listen to. And Robin noticed correctly that the logo for the show had gone from where's my 113 00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:13,160 fucking latte to where's my F apostrophe C.K. ING latte. And question the censorship, which we're 114 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:20,040 past that. But luckily Mark Yoshimoto Namcoff was listening in and here he is with his 115 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:28,280 slant on what went on with the art for the program, where's my fucking latte? Is it fucking 116 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:33,800 without you? Well, I guess that's the question and no Adam. Keep your pants on because I'm not 117 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:39,160 talking about you personally. I'm talking about the letter you and how it applies to so-called 118 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:46,360 self-censorship and my show wears my fucking latte. Well, Robin from Inside Works mentioned yesterday 119 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:52,200 on daily source code that my show wears my fucking latte, which is a collection of Hollywood 120 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:59,640 assistant stories that I gathered here in town, had gone from where's my fucking latte to the 121 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:06,200 word fucking with an apostrophe where the you used to be. So it's fucking without you, which might 122 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:11,960 be appropriate for the internet. And the story, which is hardly worth telling once let alone twice, 123 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:18,600 is that Joe Carpenter called me up one day and he said, look, where's my fucking latte 124 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:23,720 tiles up on the front of the pod show site every now and then? And sometimes in the cosmic randomness 125 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:32,280 of the laws of random, it ends up right next to like bedtime stories for my kids. Now let me 126 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:38,440 make this clear. Joe did not tell me to change it. At no point did he say, you got to remove the word 127 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:45,160 fucking from the title because, you know, the word fucking next to bedtime stories is usually only 128 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:50,520 reserved for well pacific ghost hallway, which reminds me you got to come on the show and tell 129 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:55,480 that story about the time you passed out on out in John's yacht or even better the one with 130 00:15:55,480 --> 00:16:01,640 Kurt Loder and the latex fist. But I digress. What it came down to is I understood Joe's concern 131 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:07,480 and he actually had a really good point. Is that the word fucking even with an asterisk in it? 132 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:15,000 Was just a salacious even more so? Some may even say titillating. I just like saying titillating. 133 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:21,800 Then the word fucking with the you in it because this way you can get away with just putting 134 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:26,600 fucking right out there without it really being fucking. And I thought, well that's pretty 135 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:32,440 fucking subversive and truth be told when the print version of where's my fucking latte comes out 136 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:37,240 with a whole bunch of other stories that weren't in the podcast. The plan had always been 137 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:43,640 to put the asterisk in in the word fucking anyway because I'd seen a bunch of covered designs 138 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:49,080 and the one that actually had the asterisk in it was to me a lot more eye catching 139 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:53,400 than the version that just had the word fucking on it and also we knew there would be a marketing 140 00:16:53,400 --> 00:17:00,360 problem with a version that just had the word fucking in it without the asterisk. So yes in the end 141 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:06,920 it was a business decision and not censorship that changed fucking from fucking to fucking with an asterisk. 142 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,800 And not only did I create this comment for you just so I could say the word fucking about 143 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:17,960 46 times on your show. Which I still fucking love I got to tell you I got to tell you man. 144 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:25,000 But also it gives me an excuse to tell you that in the latest chapter of where's my fucking latte 145 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:31,560 I dig into my own personal vault of stories and talk about how my upcoming podcast novel number 146 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:37,720 one with a bullet which started out life as a feature film script that I had optioned several times 147 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:43,320 all over this town and went through a lot of years of development hell. Before I realized 148 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:50,120 that screenplays are routinely taken away from their creators who are oftentimes left 149 00:17:50,120 --> 00:17:56,040 with hardly credit on the final product and then how I was able to reclaim it and turn it into an 150 00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:02,760 intellectual property. So Adam thanks for your time and in the end iTunes never allowed me to put 151 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:09,320 latte in their podcast directory. They're the ones that chose to censor it because of the title. 152 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,200 I have no idea what their fucking problem is. 153 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:19,800 Alright well that clears it up. Obviously the word latte is a problem mark. Can't you figure that out? 154 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:27,640 Look at my Google notebook. I really love this Google notebook. If you haven't seen it 155 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:32,520 where did you get it from? Google.com slash notebook and you can install it into any browser 156 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:37,720 and stores your notes on the server. These guys are so smart. It's kind of like an outline 157 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:42,440 because you can add subsections and so I'm looking at that now. A couple of things just 158 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:49,320 wanted to wing by you for a second. Good news looks like the clear channel breakup is starting. 159 00:18:50,120 --> 00:18:56,040 We talked about this. The final phase in any company's existence or any industry's existence 160 00:18:56,040 --> 00:19:05,720 actually is when the company starts to roll up and then it goes private and after that 161 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:11,320 after it has all the assets, a long-come guys like KKR. Let me see who's actually bidding for this. 162 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:24,280 Apollo Management, Carlisle, Sabirius Capital, Oak Hill partners. There's KKR. So essentially they're 163 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:28,680 going to break up this company and they're going to sell all the individual assets and that will be 164 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:33,880 the end of mainstream radio as we know it my friends because it'll just be bits and pieces and 165 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:39,640 not coordinated. No we're near the power that we have in podcasting. So that's a nice light note for 166 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:48,280 today. Great to link from Sinclair who sent me a link to openatc.com. If you're in 167 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:54,920 aviation, you got to check this out. You can download a KML file which is a Google Earth file 168 00:19:55,720 --> 00:20:01,240 and it will show you with a five minute delay but it's exciting nonetheless. It will show you all 169 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:06,680 of the current IFR flight paths in any region around the globe and you can actually see the flight 170 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:11,720 numbers and see where the aircraft is. As of five minutes ago but still extremely cool in 171 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:18,120 it auto updates openatc.com. You definitely got to look at that. And then finally and this is a 172 00:20:18,120 --> 00:20:25,240 little concerning. I've been getting a lot of people emailing me and a lot of pointers to this post 173 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:32,760 that Steve Gilmore put on his gesture lab which is gesturelab.com. And it's about the most 174 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:38,120 recent Gilmore gang. Now I want to say upfront that I feel the past weeks, maybe even the past 175 00:20:38,120 --> 00:20:44,120 months of Gilmore gang have been really exemplary. The addition of Jason Calacanis has been fantastic 176 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:50,520 and I hear the same message basically. You know people listen to the show sometimes just because 177 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:55,240 they love to hate it so much which is great. Now that is the stuff that great shows are made of. 178 00:20:55,800 --> 00:21:04,440 And Steve wrote this post, really emotional. The let it be gang is the title of it and he says 179 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:11,960 that he's really unhappy with the way he is on the show even though he knows the show is really 180 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:16,280 liked now. Maybe he doesn't want the show to be liked. I don't know maybe he's not trying to make 181 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,800 entertainment maybe he's trying to do something else but that's not clear from the post. 182 00:21:20,360 --> 00:21:25,400 But apparently a lot of this came out during the most recent recording of the Gilmore gang, 183 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:30,440 the let it be gang. And so he only released three pieces. You know how he breaks up the show. 184 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:35,480 He only released three pieces and says he doesn't want to release the other piece of the show 185 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:40,040 because he hated the way he sounded on it and he felt that the whole show fell to shit. And obviously 186 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:45,240 I think that's a huge shame because I'd love to know what it's about. Interestingly enough, 187 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:54,920 Dan Farber, who was on the show, he has this he waxes very poetic about the only way that 188 00:21:55,480 --> 00:22:01,080 audio and video and podcasting is going to work. He is a clairvoyant and quite a visionary. 189 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:08,120 And he says that independent is the way to go and this is the reason why Steve hates doing his 190 00:22:08,120 --> 00:22:12,520 show on pod show. And he points to this page and I look at it and I don't see anything about that. 191 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:19,240 So maybe that was what was in the second half of the Gilmore gang that has not been aired. And I think 192 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:24,600 as an audience member, I think we deserve to know what's going on. I really think we deserve to hear about it. 193 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:31,480 So it's quite a shame. I really love to know more. And just if you read that post, 194 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:36,120 and of course I'll put a link in the show notes. It's emotional stuff. I'm like, wow, you know. 195 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,880 There's anything I can do to help. But I don't really know what the problem is because 196 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:48,200 everyone else seems to know, but I can't help. Otherwise, yeah, what I have done is 197 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:55,720 a company man and all I registered to Gilmorelessgang.com just in case. 198 00:22:55,720 --> 00:23:14,680 Yeah. I just like to say what's the success. I think your screen phone to campaign is. 199 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:20,760 Every time I'm doing any activity involving tissues, I always think it's you with crying, 200 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:27,560 cleaning the staffing of fire. I always wish you a bad night's side. So maybe you should get 201 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:33,000 sponsored in this possible. It makes nice, soft toilet height for a mighty white mags. 202 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:40,120 If I can now. Roger. Roger. Roger. What a brilliant idea. I think that's fantastic. And 203 00:23:40,120 --> 00:23:47,480 was it the wanker mags? Do you fold or scrunch after a, after a wank? Well, that's the next big question 204 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:54,040 on our minds. Roger and I've had some back and forth emails and private conversation. And I really 205 00:23:54,040 --> 00:24:00,760 don't think he's going to come to podcast con UK. Between you and I, I think that he feels that his 206 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:06,280 appearance, you know, people ridicule him or something like that. So I really want to build up his 207 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:10,600 confidence, but I don't think we're going to build it up before podcast con UK. But Roger, I just 208 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:18,360 do want you to know, even though you probably won't show up, you really are a pillar of podcasting 209 00:24:18,360 --> 00:24:36,680 in the UK. And I just love you to death, man. Absolutely. Yeah, by the way, that domain name, 210 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:42,600 I registered Gilmore less gang.com. I used DS, the three checkout code got myself a great deal, 211 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:49,240 695, go daddy.com. All right, everybody on serious. I'll talk to you guys tomorrow. And for those of you 212 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:54,120 still here, let's listen to some more complaining. Hey, Adam, this is Steve Dinn from Halifax on the East 213 00:24:54,120 --> 00:24:59,880 Coast of Canada. I was just listening to show 495 and I had a comment about what you said about the 214 00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:04,840 Zoom. Now, I probably won't be getting a Zoom anytime soon, but that's beside the point. 215 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:11,000 My point is, who cares that the Zoom doesn't support podcasting? What does that even mean? 216 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:18,200 Why does a portable device need to support podcasting? Do iPod support podcasting? No, they actually 217 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:24,360 don't. iTunes supports podcasting. So you're going to accomplish the same thing with the combination 218 00:25:24,360 --> 00:25:32,040 of any old podcast downloader like Juice and a fantastic feature of Windows Media Player that I 219 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:38,360 sorely wish was in iTunes. Media Player can scan a directory. So it monitors a directory on your 220 00:25:38,360 --> 00:25:46,520 hard drive and can automatically add new files to your Media Player library. So I then used a dynamic 221 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:54,120 playlist to automatically sync un-listened to files from my Media Player library to my portable 222 00:25:54,120 --> 00:26:00,200 player. And it's just goes to show the end-general. I think it's better to have multiple tools that do 223 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:08,440 one thing very well than to have a single behemoth that tries to do everything. That's the end of my 224 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:15,880 comment. So this is the start of my plug. SpineRadio.com. And folder. Yeah, folder. Okay. 225 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:23,000 I think well you make a good point. Although I don't look at these as devices. I look at them 226 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:27,960 as receivers. And I think that the general public looks at them as receivers. I spent an hour with 227 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:33,560 Christina yesterday. Here's what she wanted to do. She wanted to move all of her songs 228 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:41,320 from iTunes. She doesn't have an iPod. She lost it or broke it or whatever. Into her creative 229 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:49,080 Zen player. And what she was about to do, she was about to just delete everything. When she opened 230 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:54,920 up Windows Media Player, the software that controls the device. Because, you know, she doesn't know 231 00:26:54,920 --> 00:27:00,200 any other way to do. It just doesn't know about, you know, about mounting it and opening it and 232 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:04,120 dragging stuff in directly. She just, you know, what popped open is Windows Media Player. That's the 233 00:27:04,120 --> 00:27:09,880 way it's configured. And as she was about to just delete all of that, not knowing that it would 234 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:15,320 the same files because both iTunes and Windows Media Player scan your entire drive upon request. 235 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:19,880 Which, of course, everyone says yes. That's where, you know, I've seen people look at dialogue 236 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:24,520 boxes. Okay. Okay. Click. Okay. Click. Okay. Click. Okay. Then I don't even read anymore. So by default, 237 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:30,680 what happens? And it's just shitty software. You know, and all people who make software make shitty software. 238 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:39,640 The files were essentially the same because there were files that, you know, and all illegal 239 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:45,560 MP3s, I'm sure, as she had downloaded and put onto iTunes initially. And then Media Player had 240 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:49,720 scanned those same files. So she was about to delete a boot to delete everything, as you would say. 241 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:55,560 And so I was able to stop her, but it's really complicated. So I guess what we're all looking for 242 00:27:55,560 --> 00:28:00,440 is a standard way, just so we can make it easy. It's what is what was attempted with the standard way to 243 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:07,240 subscribe, which is the RSS, why don't orange XML button? Well, that didn't work. And look at it now. 244 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:11,720 Now, you got like 20 fucking buttons to subscribe to stuff easily. That's not what you want. And would you 245 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:17,800 want a television or a radio that couldn't receive signals that you could receive on another 246 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:22,040 television or radio? I think that's the analog way that people still kind of look at these things. 247 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:30,120 Instead of podcasting support, perhaps I should say, couldn't we just have one comment? Maybe 248 00:28:30,120 --> 00:28:36,360 just all players, when you plug them in, they just open up and then, you know, you can drag stuff 249 00:28:36,360 --> 00:28:39,880 onto them. It wouldn't that be the easiest. It doesn't work that way with the iPod as example. 250 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:45,640 And the iPod has the market. But I think you know the point, just want to make it easier for 251 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:50,120 everybody. I know you know how to do this stuff. You know, you've been listening, you've been following 252 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:55,400 along. You had to learn. You didn't know from day one. It's much harder to learn when all the cool 253 00:28:55,400 --> 00:29:02,200 people are doing it and no one's really sharing the information. It's just hard. Just trying to make it 254 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:08,200 easy. That's all. Well, I'm fat. And it just forces trying to hold my forces out. I want to get 255 00:29:08,200 --> 00:31:31,880 [ Music ] 256 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:40,440 in love. I'm just a little in love. I'm just a little in love. I'm just a little in love. 257 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:45,800 Sean Patrick McGraw. The spot to save music never worth. I'm just a little in love. 258 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:52,040 Why ended up in Charlie for today? I'm happy now if you don't mind. All right, everybody. 259 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:57,080 I will be back here tomorrow. Take care of yourself. Bye bye. 260 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,680 Another pod show podcast. Stick it in your ear.
