WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:08.000 Transmidders, we don't need no stinkin' transmitters. 00:08.000 --> 00:11.000 Oh god, we're casting with Adam Curry. 00:11.000 --> 00:14.000 Hey, finally, a source code. 00:14.000 --> 00:15.000 It still exists. 00:15.000 --> 00:17.000 Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. 00:17.000 --> 00:19.000 Hey, everybody, how you doing? 00:19.000 --> 00:23.000 Coming to you from Curry Cottage. 00:23.000 --> 00:28.000 Yeah, I got lots to talk about because we are still not connected. 00:28.000 --> 00:30.000 But we don't need no stinkin' transmitters. 00:30.000 --> 00:31.000 We got the podcast. 00:31.000 --> 00:32.000 That's right. 00:32.000 --> 00:35.000 Your source code for Thursday, January 13th, 2000. 00:35.000 --> 00:37.000 Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. 00:37.000 --> 00:40.000 Whoah, boy. 00:40.000 --> 00:42.000 My goodness. 00:42.000 --> 00:44.000 That's all you. 00:44.000 --> 00:46.000 It's been quite a few days. 00:46.000 --> 00:49.000 Last time we spoke was Monday, which was was it. 00:49.000 --> 00:50.000 That was the temp. 00:50.000 --> 00:53.000 That was the last podcast from South Beach in Florida. 00:53.000 --> 00:56.000 Since then, I have been, well, pretty much in transit. 00:56.000 --> 01:01.000 My back just aches from sitting on airplanes, sitting in cars, 01:01.000 --> 01:03.000 and doing anything with actually exercise. 01:03.000 --> 01:06.000 And of course, it's a throwback to the motorcycle accident. 01:06.000 --> 01:08.000 And you've got to exercise that shit. 01:08.000 --> 01:10.000 You know what I'm saying? 01:10.000 --> 01:13.000 No matter what, 40 minutes for you on the source code. 01:18.000 --> 01:19.000 Let me see, what is it? 01:19.000 --> 01:21.000 I'm trying to think what's best to start off with. 01:21.000 --> 01:24.000 Well, maybe I just tell you a little bit about the trip 01:25.000 --> 01:28.000 where I've been, why I've not actually been able to record a source code. 01:28.000 --> 01:31.000 I got to tell you that I actually did have a chance doing that yesterday. 01:31.000 --> 01:34.000 And the car as I post on curry dot com with taxi Eric, 01:34.000 --> 01:40.000 as I was going from Amsterdam to Antwerp to close on the sale of the castle. 01:40.000 --> 01:42.000 But I was just so tired. 01:42.000 --> 01:43.000 I've been sleeping. 01:43.000 --> 01:45.000 I'm like a super model now. 01:45.000 --> 01:46.000 You know, not eating. 01:46.000 --> 01:48.000 Sleeping everywhere I can. 01:48.000 --> 01:49.000 Every limo. 01:49.000 --> 01:50.000 Well, shoot. 01:50.000 --> 01:51.000 I forgot. 01:51.000 --> 01:52.000 I don't have any limo. 01:53.000 --> 01:54.000 That's overrated. 01:54.000 --> 01:55.000 Okay. 01:55.000 --> 02:01.000 So left Monday after winging by the apple store to pick up an ice skin for Christina's iPod Mini, 02:01.000 --> 02:05.000 because apparently they're all sold out here in the area. 02:05.000 --> 02:10.000 And I didn't know there was an apple store in the area in the Gilbert area. 02:10.000 --> 02:12.000 And then went off to the to the airport. 02:12.000 --> 02:15.000 Of course, my flight was delayed. 02:15.000 --> 02:19.000 But what was cool is that I guess that's this is probably the perfect time. 02:19.000 --> 02:21.000 Maybe here's the secret to British airways. 02:21.000 --> 02:23.000 If you want to get an upgrade. 02:23.000 --> 02:27.000 First of all, you've got to travel at the right time of year, which around Christmas 02:27.000 --> 02:32.000 time with a winter time to Miami is clearly a very desirable time to fly. 02:32.000 --> 02:33.000 The tickets. 02:33.000 --> 02:39.000 I got the world traveler, which is like economy, but economy plus so that if you want to, you can 02:39.000 --> 02:41.000 change your ticket. 02:41.000 --> 02:45.000 Which I thought might, you know, could actually be one of the possibilities being in 02:45.000 --> 02:47.000 South Beach and the meetings we were having. 02:47.000 --> 02:51.000 There was a possibility maybe we'd go up to New York or maybe I'd go directly back 02:51.000 --> 02:54.000 to Antwerp, which of course didn't work out that way. 02:54.000 --> 02:56.000 I had to go a day later, which screwed it up. 02:56.000 --> 03:01.000 So anyway, what you want to do is you want to have that world traveler so that you are 03:01.000 --> 03:06.000 the first in line before the real economy tickets. 03:06.000 --> 03:08.000 If there's an upgrade possibility. 03:08.000 --> 03:12.000 And combined with the fact that it's in the winter time and everyone wants to fly 03:12.000 --> 03:16.000 to Miami or it's flying back or it's traveling to and from Miami. 03:16.000 --> 03:19.000 They're overselling the economy seats. 03:19.000 --> 03:23.000 So if you were calling on the way over, I got upgraded to first class on the way back. 03:23.000 --> 03:29.000 I got upgraded to business class or club as they call it on British Air. 03:29.000 --> 03:33.000 And that means that you do get a sleeper seat, which is not quite this. 03:33.000 --> 03:34.000 It used to be different. 03:34.000 --> 03:37.000 I remember the first class sleeper seats and you get like a little mattress. 03:37.000 --> 03:41.000 They put down for you and they put sheets in and they folded back and you get 03:41.000 --> 03:42.000 little pajamas. 03:42.000 --> 03:45.000 This is when they had, I don't know if you care about this shit. 03:45.000 --> 03:46.000 But it was interesting. 03:46.000 --> 03:48.000 They had a for a while. 03:48.000 --> 03:50.000 This great offer. 03:50.000 --> 03:57.000 You could fly with the Concord from London to New York and return first class on the sleeper 03:57.000 --> 04:00.000 seat on the 747, which is the overnight flight. 04:00.000 --> 04:05.000 For a total of, I think, if I was, this was back in the, so this was 90. 04:05.000 --> 04:06.000 Most of this was 90. 04:06.000 --> 04:09.000 No, this was 2000. 04:09.000 --> 04:10.000 Maybe. 04:10.000 --> 04:14.000 Well, before they took the Concord out, maybe it was a little bit before that. 04:14.000 --> 04:18.000 But it was no more than like, I think it was $4,000. 04:18.000 --> 04:23.000 And of course, this is pretty all the new pricing and all these wonderful airport taxes. 04:23.000 --> 04:26.000 Please don't, don't think it's a fucking tax from the government. 04:26.000 --> 04:27.000 Okay. 04:27.000 --> 04:31.000 It's just a way of airlines sucking more money out of you and pretending it's something 04:31.000 --> 04:34.000 due to the government by calling it a tax, which it's not. 04:34.000 --> 04:38.000 It's just landing fees and more costs that they're writing off as a tax. 04:38.000 --> 04:40.000 That's what they're telling you. 04:40.000 --> 04:41.000 Oh, yeah, sure. 04:41.000 --> 04:42.000 They have to pay the airport of fee. 04:42.000 --> 04:44.000 I mean, that's always been that way. 04:44.000 --> 04:48.000 You always have to pay the airport of fee per passenger or per weight of the plane. 04:48.000 --> 04:51.000 If I land with a rinketing plane, I also have to pay a fee. 04:51.000 --> 04:54.000 But now they're basically just passing it onto you and calling it a tax. 04:54.000 --> 04:57.000 Anyway, so don't get me started again on that. 04:57.000 --> 05:00.000 But the, so it's not comparable to what it used to be. 05:00.000 --> 05:03.000 But still, it was nice to lay down almost completely vertical. 05:03.000 --> 05:07.000 And I almost fit entirely between the footrest and the headrest. 05:07.000 --> 05:09.000 So it was better than nothing. 05:09.000 --> 05:12.000 But arrive needless to say a little bit, you know, broken. 05:12.000 --> 05:14.000 I am 517 after all. 05:14.000 --> 05:18.000 And there was no lovely little, what do you call it? 05:18.000 --> 05:20.000 Mattress to lay on. 05:20.000 --> 05:22.000 And of course, you know, it's an overnight flight. 05:22.000 --> 05:24.000 This is the jet lag flight, right? 05:24.000 --> 05:29.000 So I got home and there's all kinds of crap going on with the, with the closing of the house, 05:29.000 --> 05:32.000 which was the next day and Antwerp and there was like a taxation issue. 05:32.000 --> 05:36.000 I mean, you don't want to come home after that flight and have to talk taxation issues. 05:37.000 --> 05:42.000 And then of course, as it sold, then Christina's horse princess or pony actually, 05:42.000 --> 05:44.000 it has to be brought over. 05:44.000 --> 05:45.000 So that's this Friday. 05:45.000 --> 05:47.000 And so just all kinds of things to coordinate. 05:47.000 --> 05:48.000 My god. 05:48.000 --> 05:50.000 What horrible things to have to coordinate. 05:50.000 --> 05:51.000 I'm not really complaining. 05:51.000 --> 05:53.000 I'm just letting me in my life. 05:53.000 --> 05:54.000 Okay. 05:54.000 --> 05:58.000 And then the next day, I was up early to go to Antwerp. 05:58.000 --> 06:02.000 And the only choices I had were drive two hours almost to London City, 06:03.000 --> 06:07.000 which has a direct flight on the VLM Airlines to Antwerp. 06:07.000 --> 06:09.000 Or go to Gatwick. 06:09.000 --> 06:12.000 Actually, yeah, go to Gatwick. 06:12.000 --> 06:18.000 And then I had taxi Eric drive me down, which is probably about an hour and 15 minutes. 06:18.000 --> 06:20.000 And of course, an hour and 15 minutes back. 06:20.000 --> 06:25.000 And I was able to see a couple other people on the way, such as my friend's purple rain in Brida. 06:25.000 --> 06:29.000 Remember I've spoken about them, my Moroccan friend. 06:29.000 --> 06:33.000 And I wanted to talk a little bit about actually about easy jet. 06:33.000 --> 06:35.000 But first, oh yes. 06:35.000 --> 06:37.000 Of course, we've got some cadence for you. 06:37.000 --> 06:39.000 And I apologize in advance. 06:39.000 --> 06:41.000 I have not been very good with my show notes. 06:41.000 --> 06:44.000 I had kept this one because I knew that I wanted to play it. 06:44.000 --> 06:46.000 But not quite sure where I got it from. 06:46.000 --> 06:49.000 It's called testicular fortitude. 06:49.000 --> 06:51.000 Enjoy. 06:51.000 --> 06:54.000 45 minutes or 45 seconds of cadence. 06:54.000 --> 06:56.000 Just good enough. 06:56.000 --> 06:59.000 Well, I support out. 07:01.250 --> 07:48.750 [ Music ] 07:55.000 --> 07:57.000 I just don't know where it came from. 07:57.000 --> 08:03.000 And of course, the title of that reminds me of the my pods forecast, which I played a couple of. 08:03.000 --> 08:05.000 Well, maybe a week and a half ago. 08:05.000 --> 08:12.000 It's the podcaster that does stock picks and most recently lottery numbers. 08:12.000 --> 08:15.000 By consulting his testicles. 08:15.000 --> 08:17.000 Shoot man. 08:17.000 --> 08:19.000 I got to find that. 08:19.000 --> 08:21.000 It's coming through on openpodcast.org. 08:21.000 --> 08:24.000 But I think if you go to my podsforcast.com. 08:24.000 --> 08:32.000 And actually, what's most amazing is the math that he uses behind coming up with the yes, 08:32.000 --> 08:37.000 no path to finding out the path to choosing numbers. 08:37.000 --> 08:39.000 Please listen to that. 08:39.000 --> 08:41.000 It will be well worth the time. 08:41.000 --> 08:42.000 So about easy jet. 08:42.000 --> 08:44.000 I never actually flown on easy jet. 08:44.000 --> 08:48.000 And this is a very short hop to go from London to Amsterdam. 08:48.000 --> 08:53.000 It's about, I can totally guess you really know flying no more than maybe 35, 40 minutes. 08:53.000 --> 08:56.000 Of course, the, let's just say in our altogether, depending. 08:56.000 --> 08:59.000 And that's really from takeoff to landing. 08:59.000 --> 09:02.000 And it just depends on, you know, road and weather conditions, obviously. 09:02.000 --> 09:04.000 And I'd been on British Airways. 09:04.000 --> 09:07.000 And I'd done KLM, of course. 09:07.000 --> 09:09.000 And as I was reserving this trip. 09:09.000 --> 09:11.000 And I was doing that in South Beach. 09:11.000 --> 09:13.000 I was looking at the ticket prices. 09:13.000 --> 09:16.000 And, you know, of course, what happens is when you do a round trip. 09:16.000 --> 09:21.000 You book on January 12th to go to Amsterdam and return January 12th. 09:21.000 --> 09:25.000 So all of a sudden, for some reason, I guess you're positioned as a business customer. 09:25.000 --> 09:27.000 And your, your coach fair ticket. 09:27.000 --> 09:31.000 Your coach ticket fair is like 300 pounds. 09:31.000 --> 09:34.000 You know, that's close to 500 dollars. 09:34.000 --> 09:36.000 Like, I don't fucking think so. 09:36.000 --> 09:40.000 So then, of course, I tried to beat the system by booking one way. 09:40.000 --> 09:43.000 Or booking January 12th is going over. 09:43.000 --> 09:46.000 And some ridiculous date, like February 20th coming back. 09:46.000 --> 09:50.000 And I saw the, of course, the trip over was all of a sudden, only 40 pounds. 09:50.000 --> 09:53.000 And then I, of course, tried to do the reverse. 09:53.000 --> 09:55.000 And, well, they do kind of catch on that. 09:55.000 --> 09:58.000 You know, where I then booked a trip back from the 12th. 09:58.000 --> 10:02.000 Or from the 12th to London and a return trip. 10:02.000 --> 10:05.000 And a much later date, but they, they kind of catch on that. 10:05.000 --> 10:07.000 But it doesn't really work. 10:07.000 --> 10:08.000 So I said, screw it. 10:08.000 --> 10:11.000 You know, and I, and I checked a couple other airlines. 10:11.000 --> 10:14.000 What is it to be in my British Midland? 10:14.000 --> 10:15.000 And they were. 10:15.000 --> 10:17.000 So that was still 180 pounds. 10:17.000 --> 10:18.000 So 250 dollars. 10:19.000 --> 10:21.000 And I just, this became a sport. 10:21.000 --> 10:23.000 You know, it actually has become a sport. 10:23.000 --> 10:25.000 Because I really don't give a shit. 10:25.000 --> 10:30.000 You know, if I'm flying in the toilet, or if I'm actually flying the plane, 10:30.000 --> 10:33.000 which I couldn't with this, these particular models. 10:33.000 --> 10:37.000 But, you know, I just want to do it efficiently and effectively. 10:37.000 --> 10:40.000 And, and the game is to do it cheaply. 10:40.000 --> 10:43.000 So I looked up easy jet, which had never really flown. 10:43.000 --> 10:47.000 And they have a flight from Gatway to Amsterdam. 10:47.000 --> 10:51.000 And the total price round trip with the times that I was going. 10:51.000 --> 10:55.000 So I'd left around 11 of an even in the end. 10:55.000 --> 10:56.000 Whoops. 10:56.000 --> 10:57.000 Did we hear that? 10:57.000 --> 10:59.000 That was kind of funky. 10:59.000 --> 11:01.000 Thank God for digital recording. 11:01.000 --> 11:04.000 So left around 11 a.m. on Tuesday. 11:04.000 --> 11:05.000 Was it Tuesday? 11:05.000 --> 11:06.000 Wednesday? 11:06.000 --> 11:07.000 Sorry. 11:07.000 --> 11:08.000 I'm so confused. 11:08.000 --> 11:09.000 Left little 11 a.m. 11:09.000 --> 11:13.000 And returned on the quarter of ten or five to ten p.m. 11:13.000 --> 11:15.000 same day. 11:15.000 --> 11:19.000 And so the total was about 80 pounds, which I thought was really good. 11:19.000 --> 11:20.000 And so I went to the airport. 11:20.000 --> 11:23.000 You know, all you do is just show up with your printout. 11:23.000 --> 11:24.000 You don't even have to do that. 11:24.000 --> 11:26.000 You can just say your name, show your ID. 11:26.000 --> 11:28.000 And you don't even have a confirmation number. 11:28.000 --> 11:30.000 Or you do, but you don't need it. 11:30.000 --> 11:31.000 Give it a boarding pass. 11:31.000 --> 11:33.000 And it's just, it's a really nice experience. 11:33.000 --> 11:36.000 All the way from, you know, going to the lounge. 11:36.000 --> 11:37.000 And everyone's the same, right? 11:37.000 --> 11:40.000 There's no, no one gets preference over anything. 11:40.000 --> 11:43.000 There is a number on your ticket, which is a labeled like, 11:43.000 --> 11:46.000 you know, one to, well, depending on the size of the plane. 11:46.000 --> 11:48.000 Maybe a hundred, let's just say. 11:48.000 --> 11:52.000 So you can say, you know, people with the numbers one to 50, 11:52.000 --> 11:56.000 you know, could you please start boarding now and about two minutes later. 11:56.000 --> 11:59.000 It's just crowd control, basically, to get you to line up nicely. 11:59.000 --> 12:01.000 But there's really no checking. 12:01.000 --> 12:04.000 You know, they don't have to go through any real computer systems, 12:04.000 --> 12:08.000 looking at spots where you're sitting, because there's no reserved seating. 12:08.000 --> 12:10.000 Everything is all the same. 12:10.000 --> 12:15.000 And when you get on the plane, a couple of things I noticed right off the bat, 12:15.000 --> 12:22.000 because the whole intent of this service is to be like a bus. 12:22.000 --> 12:26.000 And it is just like a bus. 12:26.000 --> 12:30.000 There's three rows on the right hand side, three rows on the left hand side. 12:30.000 --> 12:32.000 It's a very broad plane. 12:32.000 --> 12:36.000 And it actually, well, go figure, it is the Airbus 319. 12:36.000 --> 12:38.000 That's the model that we flew. 12:39.000 --> 12:41.000 It's really comfortable to walk in. 12:41.000 --> 12:43.000 You don't have to crouch or anything. 12:43.000 --> 12:45.000 Certainly for tall people like myself. 12:45.000 --> 12:47.000 There's plenty of storage space. 12:47.000 --> 12:50.000 There's just no, no frills, no thrills, right? 12:50.000 --> 12:53.000 It's just seats, right in left, three, three, everything's three. 12:53.000 --> 12:55.000 There's no two seaters, no one. 12:55.000 --> 12:59.000 There's no single, actually, the exit row. 12:59.000 --> 13:00.000 I take that back. 13:00.000 --> 13:03.000 The exit row does have a little bit more space, 13:03.000 --> 13:04.000 but you can't move your chair back. 13:04.000 --> 13:06.000 So you want to avoid the exit rows. 13:07.000 --> 13:13.000 But for some reason, because you know that you're guaranteed absolutely no service, 13:13.000 --> 13:14.000 because that's the deal, right? 13:14.000 --> 13:15.000 You get no service. 13:15.000 --> 13:17.000 There's just, you know, we're going to help you on. 13:17.000 --> 13:18.000 We're going to keep you safe. 13:18.000 --> 13:20.000 And the girls are great. 13:20.000 --> 13:23.000 The cabin crew, I only had stewardesses or flight attendants, 13:23.000 --> 13:25.000 female, both going and coming. 13:25.000 --> 13:27.000 I don't know if they have a male flight attendants. 13:27.000 --> 13:28.000 I'm sure they must. 13:28.000 --> 13:29.000 Totally nice. 13:29.000 --> 13:31.000 Because all they have to do is basically keep you safe. 13:31.000 --> 13:33.000 So they're smiling and they help you sit down. 13:33.000 --> 13:35.000 They just have to make sure you get your seat belt buckled. 13:35.000 --> 13:37.000 And otherwise, there's nothing. 13:37.000 --> 13:39.000 Of course, when you're in the air, then they say, 13:39.000 --> 13:41.000 hey, would you like to purchase a drink? 13:41.000 --> 13:43.000 So they don't come through the aisle. 13:43.000 --> 13:46.000 They just say, look, if you want some of the drink, 13:46.000 --> 13:50.000 or something to eat, just turn on your overhead light. 13:50.000 --> 13:53.000 And then also in the old jump in actions, 13:53.000 --> 13:55.000 there's maybe five flight attendants. 13:55.000 --> 13:57.000 And they just run back and forth real quick, 13:57.000 --> 13:58.000 get you whatever you want. 13:58.000 --> 14:00.000 And they give you a chance you pay to pay for it. 14:00.000 --> 14:04.000 So I think I bought a tea and a big cheese and tomato. 14:04.000 --> 14:06.000 You say tomato, I said tomato. 14:06.000 --> 14:07.000 I said tomato now. 14:07.000 --> 14:09.000 A tomato sandwich was like four pounds, 14:09.000 --> 14:11.000 50 altogether. 14:11.000 --> 14:15.000 I guess cheaper than if it's actually built into the price of the ticket, 14:15.000 --> 14:16.000 clearly. 14:16.000 --> 14:19.000 And then when that's all over, 14:19.000 --> 14:21.000 when they've delivered everyone, 14:21.000 --> 14:22.000 whatever they purchase, 14:22.000 --> 14:24.000 then it's very simple for them, right? 14:24.000 --> 14:26.000 They don't have to really prepare anything. 14:26.000 --> 14:28.000 Then they come by with a big trash bag, 14:28.000 --> 14:31.000 and everyone just chips in and throws your shit into the trash bag. 14:31.000 --> 14:33.000 They've also passed out the company magazine, 14:33.000 --> 14:34.000 which they come back and collect. 14:34.000 --> 14:36.000 So that's where a lot of the savings come in. 14:36.000 --> 14:37.000 You know, it's not like you. 14:37.000 --> 14:40.000 You don't, I think I guess you could take the magazine with you if you wanted, 14:40.000 --> 14:45.000 but basically the operation just really smart, really tight. 14:45.000 --> 14:51.000 And there's something about knowing that you're not going to get any service, 14:51.000 --> 14:56.000 and knowing that the flight attendants don't have to provide any service, 14:56.000 --> 14:57.000 which just makes it great. 14:57.000 --> 14:58.000 You know, it's like it's, you know, 14:58.000 --> 15:00.000 I'm not expecting anything, 15:00.000 --> 15:03.000 if I get a smile, I'm already happy, 15:03.000 --> 15:04.000 and let's be honest. 15:04.000 --> 15:08.000 You don't get them any fucking smiles from first-class flight attendants. 15:08.000 --> 15:09.000 You know, I'm liking it. 15:09.000 --> 15:11.000 Those Steve Ross, what is it, 15:11.000 --> 15:13.000 set the guys name? 15:13.000 --> 15:16.000 George, Jorge, George, Steve Ross. 15:16.000 --> 15:18.000 Shit, I should look his name up. 15:18.000 --> 15:20.000 Ah, of course I can't get on the internet right now. 15:20.000 --> 15:22.000 Yeah, let's talk about that for a second. 15:22.000 --> 15:24.000 So anyway, easy jet, fantastic. 15:24.000 --> 15:28.000 I don't know what it would be like to travel more than two and a half hours, 15:28.000 --> 15:31.000 if it was really packed, but I, I'm going to tell you, 15:31.000 --> 15:34.000 I'm going to do that, I'm going to, this is a great formula. 15:34.000 --> 15:38.000 And it has a lot to do with the way the plane is configured as well. 15:38.000 --> 15:40.000 It's not just the cheap tickets. 15:40.000 --> 15:43.000 Oh, and by the way, their tax is interesting. 15:43.000 --> 15:45.000 You'd think that if it really was a tax, 15:45.000 --> 15:47.000 all tax would be the same. 15:47.000 --> 15:49.000 No, you can fly the same distance, 15:49.000 --> 15:52.000 this from London to Amsterdam with the KLM. 15:52.000 --> 15:54.000 Their tax is 44 pounds. 15:54.000 --> 15:57.000 Easy jet's tax is only 10 pounds. 15:57.000 --> 15:58.000 You know why? 15:58.000 --> 15:59.000 Because it's horseshit. 15:59.000 --> 16:00.000 It's not a real tax. 16:00.000 --> 16:01.000 Okay? 16:01.000 --> 16:02.000 It's a fucking rip off. 16:02.000 --> 16:05.000 Just say, you know, we're charging you for our overhead. 16:05.000 --> 16:08.000 Okay. 16:08.000 --> 16:12.000 I tried to stop by a wing commander Williams place on the, 16:12.000 --> 16:15.000 on the trip back from Antwerp. 16:15.000 --> 16:18.000 I really wanted to drop by, but everything took so long. 16:18.000 --> 16:20.000 And you know, house closing sometimes can just be a, 16:20.000 --> 16:22.000 yeah, it's not a pain in the asses. 16:22.000 --> 16:24.000 Of course I'm happy, but just, you know, 16:24.000 --> 16:27.000 read through everything and there's questions and answers. 16:27.000 --> 16:30.000 So I didn't get to see him, but he said, Adam, 16:30.000 --> 16:32.000 you better get your ass over here for a couple of days. 16:32.000 --> 16:33.000 Gonna teach you how to fly. 16:33.000 --> 16:36.000 Get you going because, you know, this commercial flying is just not, 16:36.000 --> 16:38.000 not for boys like you. 16:38.000 --> 16:39.000 You're right. 16:39.000 --> 16:40.000 You're right. 16:40.000 --> 16:42.000 I need to push metal the metal pull back on that stick. 16:42.000 --> 16:46.000 Put on the autopilot and pour my own cup of tea. 16:46.000 --> 16:49.000 And I'm sure we'll have some podcasts about that in the future. 16:49.000 --> 16:51.000 So let's talk about bandwidth. 16:51.000 --> 16:52.000 So of course I came home. 16:52.000 --> 16:55.000 I told you that, well, I showed you the emails. 16:55.000 --> 16:56.000 I put them on the weblog. 16:56.000 --> 16:58.000 Yes, the bandwidth was going to be here. 16:58.000 --> 17:02.000 Plugged in the router or router, as we say. 17:02.000 --> 17:06.000 And got the whamlight flashing and flashing and flashing. 17:06.000 --> 17:08.000 So I'm gonna cut straight to the chase. 17:08.000 --> 17:12.000 I've had two days of straight calling around with easy net 17:12.000 --> 17:14.000 with British telecom. 17:14.000 --> 17:17.000 Everyone has a different story, but the, you know, 17:17.000 --> 17:20.000 everything, the job is completed, but yet it's not working. 17:20.000 --> 17:21.000 The measurements are wrong. 17:21.000 --> 17:24.000 We don't understand. 17:24.000 --> 17:27.000 So I finally found this guy Lee at easy net. 17:27.000 --> 17:28.000 Then he had a different number. 17:28.000 --> 17:32.000 He had an O2O number, which is different from the O845 numbers 17:32.000 --> 17:33.000 I've been dialing. 17:33.000 --> 17:34.000 And Lee definitely has a shit together. 17:34.000 --> 17:37.000 So I say, Lee, you're my man. 17:37.000 --> 17:40.000 And about 30 minutes after speaking to Lee, 17:40.000 --> 17:42.000 British telecom shows up at the door. 17:42.000 --> 17:45.000 This is good news, I think, because here comes the cavalry. 17:45.000 --> 17:46.000 They're in. 17:46.000 --> 17:47.000 They're gonna fix it all. 17:47.000 --> 17:49.000 They're gonna figure me out. 17:50.000 --> 17:52.000 Shoot, hold on. 17:52.000 --> 17:55.000 I have something to, need to share with you right after I talk about this. 17:55.000 --> 17:57.000 Okay, here we go. 17:57.000 --> 17:59.000 So these guys, and it's, they're nice guys. 17:59.000 --> 18:02.000 John and, um, who was his apprentice. 18:02.000 --> 18:03.000 He's got an apprentice. 18:03.000 --> 18:04.000 And I can tell he's an apprentice, right? 18:04.000 --> 18:05.000 He's a young kid. 18:05.000 --> 18:08.000 And he's got a, like, his, his British telecom jacket. 18:08.000 --> 18:10.000 It's like crackling fresh. 18:10.000 --> 18:13.000 I was bustin' on him because he, you know, he could, he said. 18:13.000 --> 18:14.000 I said, what's going on? 18:14.000 --> 18:16.000 Because John was on the phone and talking to people, 18:16.000 --> 18:17.000 I don't know. 18:17.000 --> 18:18.000 I'm really new. 18:18.000 --> 18:21.000 So yes, your jacket gave it away, my friend. 18:21.000 --> 18:24.000 So I actually took pictures of this. 18:24.000 --> 18:25.000 You're not gonna believe it. 18:25.000 --> 18:26.000 So we follow the line. 18:26.000 --> 18:28.000 In my office here, there's the jack. 18:28.000 --> 18:31.000 It's got the jack reference number and it's all set, right? 18:31.000 --> 18:33.000 We follow the line to where it goes out the house. 18:33.000 --> 18:35.000 And down the side of the house. 18:35.000 --> 18:37.000 And into the junction box and the side of the house. 18:37.000 --> 18:38.000 And there you see. 18:38.000 --> 18:40.000 Yes, I had to take a picture of it. 18:40.000 --> 18:42.000 It'll be on the, the web log. 18:42.000 --> 18:45.000 There you see the wires just sticking out of the junction box. 18:45.000 --> 18:46.000 Connect it to nothing. 18:46.000 --> 18:49.000 And if you go down to the corner to the curb, actually, 18:49.000 --> 18:52.000 and you look at the, the BT box at the corner, 18:52.000 --> 18:54.000 of course, they opened it up for me. 18:54.000 --> 18:55.000 I guess what? 18:55.000 --> 18:57.000 They were like a pair of wires sitting there, 18:57.000 --> 18:59.000 just ready to be connected to the ones in my house. 18:59.000 --> 19:02.000 Which apparently, according to all the paperwork was done, 19:02.000 --> 19:04.000 but obviously wasn't completed. 19:04.000 --> 19:09.000 So that does kind of explain why no one could get the fucking measurement right. 19:09.000 --> 19:14.000 And it just went from, from bad to worse, from worse to horrible, 19:14.000 --> 19:19.000 from, so then it's like, well, we can't open up a new order 19:19.000 --> 19:21.000 unless, I don't even want to get into it. 19:21.000 --> 19:22.000 This fucking crap. 19:22.000 --> 19:25.000 So anyway, so I called Lee back, he's working on it. 19:25.000 --> 19:30.000 And what has to happen is literally some other guy has to get the order to come out here 19:30.000 --> 19:36.000 with 40 feet of fucking wire and connected from the curb up to the house. 19:36.000 --> 19:40.000 And I have half a mind to go get some goddamn wire myself 19:40.000 --> 19:42.000 and solder that fucker up tonight. 19:42.000 --> 19:44.000 But I'm going to give him a second to tell me when they, 19:44.000 --> 19:48.000 and it's convenient for them to come and actually do this for me. 19:48.000 --> 19:54.000 So until then, it's me and Starbucks or me and the neighbors. 19:54.000 --> 19:58.000 And I just, you know, now I really should go figure out which neighbors 19:58.000 --> 20:01.000 providing this Wi-Fi to me because I've been fetching off it for so long 20:01.000 --> 20:03.000 and I have to continue doing it. 20:03.000 --> 20:05.000 I just hope that I wouldn't have to deal with it. 20:05.000 --> 20:09.000 Anyway, one thing I wanted to say that when I do that get disconnected 20:09.000 --> 20:13.000 and I'm going to say Monday, well, I'm a business customer now, right? 20:13.000 --> 20:16.000 I'm not just some asshole residential smuck. 20:16.000 --> 20:17.000 Now I'm a business customer. 20:17.000 --> 20:20.000 I get, I get escalated. 20:20.000 --> 20:24.000 God, this pisses me off. 20:24.000 --> 20:30.000 I was going to say, so anyways, I get escalated and maybe Monday, maybe Monday. 20:30.000 --> 20:32.000 All right. 20:32.000 --> 20:34.000 Adam Elman sent me an email. 20:34.000 --> 20:36.000 Adam, hi, hopefully by the time you read this, 20:36.000 --> 20:39.000 you'll have your net up and running. 20:39.000 --> 20:41.000 I thought that this song for my band's recent album 20:41.000 --> 20:44.000 will help you celebrate broadband at home again. 20:44.000 --> 20:48.000 Adam says, I once had SPC accidentally disconnect my DSL line. 20:48.000 --> 20:51.000 Took six weeks for him to turn it back on, almost went insane. 20:51.000 --> 20:54.000 So I know where you're coming from. 20:54.000 --> 20:57.000 Okay, the band, sinister dexter. 20:57.000 --> 21:01.000 And of course, put a link up to their site. 21:01.000 --> 21:05.000 They're also on garageband.com as slash syntax. 21:05.000 --> 21:08.000 Song has a creative comments license. 21:08.000 --> 21:10.000 So completely pod safe music. 21:10.000 --> 21:12.000

--> 24:33.440 Being in South Beach for over a week, I didn't, as I think we discussed, I didn't really see any, 24:33.440 --> 24:37.440 any, I didn't watch any television, I just like the last day I watched by an hour of TV, 24:37.440 --> 24:44.880 was actually blown away by the speed of the hypnotization process. Within seconds, I was like, 24:46.560 --> 24:54.000 I'm hypnotized, I'm like, I am slave to the machine, but, you know, with everything going on 24:54.000 --> 25:02.720 with the tsunami, with the state of the entire fucking world, and what's this with the, 25:02.720 --> 25:07.760 don't we have, we're blasting into some kind of comment, we've got, what is it, 25:07.760 --> 25:15.120 to such a Bruce Willis type name, deep, deep mission, or deep blaster, or mission critical, 25:15.120 --> 25:21.440 something, we're trying to shoot a rocket into this meteorite to see what happens, basically, 25:21.440 --> 25:28.720 is what I understood, but just mesmerizing stuff. But the big news that I miss, and it really is 25:28.720 --> 25:37.680 big news, everyone was talking about this, is the Brad Pitt Jennifer Aniston split, and I, 25:37.680 --> 25:44.080 first of all, I got to tell you, I was shocked, I really was. I liked them, you know, there's such a, 25:44.080 --> 25:48.320 such a beautiful couple together, and it was so perfect, because you know, the Brad really needs some, 25:48.320 --> 25:51.680 he's, he needs a mom out of take care of, I mean, you know, the Jennifer's, you know, 25:51.680 --> 25:55.680 she's a strong woman, and she takes no shit, and she's going to take care of him, and, you know, 25:55.760 --> 26:00.720 you just see the way they interacted, I thought that this was a real, this could really last, 26:00.720 --> 26:05.120 I thought that this would really work, and that if anyone could make him, especially then, you know, 26:05.120 --> 26:11.120 the, although I think Brad can probably, Brad Pitt has more sex appeal than Jennifer Aniston, 26:11.120 --> 26:18.320 clearly, it's amazing when you, I mean, his world is just filled with people throwing themselves 26:18.320 --> 26:24.560 at him, female and male for that matter, and, you know, they're both famous, it just, it works, 26:24.560 --> 26:31.040 it's so perfect, and you could, I thought really the way they, they communicated together, 26:31.040 --> 26:35.120 the way they acted when they were, you know, or at least what you could see on television, 26:35.120 --> 26:40.480 and news, I don't know, either of them personally, and just the way they talk about each other, 26:40.480 --> 26:43.600 I thought that was for real, and maybe it is for real, maybe they just can't live together, 26:43.600 --> 26:48.880 but to, what happens is immediately the spin goes down, you know, it's like, well, it's, of course, 26:48.880 --> 26:56.080 it's because of Angelina Jolie, because Brad did a movie with her, and she's known to, you know, 26:56.080 --> 27:00.480 sleep with her co-stars, and, well, I don't know if that's true, right? I'm just telling you what I'm 27:00.480 --> 27:06.800 reading, and the papers here, and with more follow-up on this, on the breakup, and what I saw on TV 27:06.800 --> 27:12.320 in the States, and having been the subject of stories like that, although, I guess it was only 27:12.320 --> 27:15.600 really in the beginning when Patricia and I, we've been married for 17 years, we've been together 27:15.600 --> 27:23.200 for almost 19 now. So, no reason for this, for this shit, to not work anymore. And let's 27:23.200 --> 27:30.240 broadband, doesn't get fucking fixed, because I'll just go fucking insane, and she'll have to 27:30.240 --> 27:40.400 divorce me, it'll all be the fault of British telecom. So anyway, so that's the story, right, 27:40.400 --> 27:46.240 is that Angelina Jolie, she seduced Brad, and Jennifer would have none of that, and, and of course, 27:46.240 --> 27:52.640 then this, and it's something really hurtful that is out there now, is that Brad wants kids, 27:52.640 --> 27:57.280 Jennifer doesn't, because she still wants to move her career forward, doesn't want to enter 27:57.280 --> 28:02.480 career, I guess having kids meet ending her career, in this, in the context of what I'm reading, right? 28:03.840 --> 28:08.320 She wants to do some serious acting, doesn't want to end on the, I'm the Dits from Friends 28:08.400 --> 28:12.240 vibe, which I can totally understand, and I'm not quite sure how old she is, I think she's in 28:12.240 --> 28:17.760 her early 30s, so I think she has a little bit of time, if she, if she's so prefers before having to, 28:17.760 --> 28:23.600 you know, kind of catch up with a biological clock, that's pretty hurtful shit, you know, 28:23.600 --> 28:27.600 when people say that, it's just, even if it's true, it's hurtful for it being discussed, 28:28.800 --> 28:32.320 and of course, the reason, you know, that everything all went downhill, as they were in the 28:32.320 --> 28:37.600 Caribbean, you know, having a reconciliation weekend, don't know if it's true, and Brad had 28:37.600 --> 28:41.680 tickets to the Super Bowl, and so he went left to go back to the Super Bowl, and then he came back, 28:41.680 --> 28:46.960 and then they split up, and whatever, so there's really no revelant, relative, oh, man, 28:47.840 --> 28:55.440 wait, let me get the latency off, no relevance, between my life and theirs, except for one thing, 28:56.400 --> 29:01.680 because I said to Patricia, I said, you know, so wait a minute, so you're going to tell me that 29:01.680 --> 29:05.760 because he, let's just say he slept with Angelina Jolie, right? So they're on the set of the 29:05.920 --> 29:09.920 movie, you know, it's, you're working hard, you're in close proximity, I have no idea what the 29:09.920 --> 29:14.320 movie is, but maybe there's a love scene, there's, I mean, come on, it's a beautiful, beautiful guy, 29:14.320 --> 29:22.800 beautiful girl, there can be some attraction there, and so let's say that they did have a hot 29:24.080 --> 29:29.760 wicked affair, you know, said, so that's, is that really the reason why Jennifer is, is 29:29.760 --> 29:33.440 divorcing him, or that they're getting divorced, and Patricia said, yeah, I think that she's 29:33.520 --> 29:37.520 really, she's a tough cookie, she's taken no shit, you know, and with her, you, you do that 29:37.520 --> 29:43.200 and you're out, and then so then she took a beat and she says, besides, you know that, you know, 29:43.200 --> 29:50.960 if you called me, I'd say go for it, I was like, hold on, can I get that in writing, just in case 29:50.960 --> 29:57.600 I meet Ms. Jolie somewhere? Oh, anyway, what are we at now? We're at 29 minutes, okay, 29:57.600 --> 30:00.960 still got some stuff to talk about, and I'm really trying to pair down a lot of the 30:00.960 --> 30:04.960 elements in the show, and actually, this is going to be a good reset moment for me, and I 30:04.960 --> 30:09.280 hopefully erasing for all of you, I'm getting lots of email actually from people saying, oh, 30:09.280 --> 30:13.520 you know, even though it sucks that we haven't had a source code in three days, it's really cool 30:13.520 --> 30:18.960 that we can actually sync up and catch up on previous episodes. So that's good, so maybe I should do 30:18.960 --> 30:23.280 that once a month, you know, drop a couple of days and see if everyone can kind of sync up. 30:23.840 --> 30:28.800 There are of course some comments that came in. Yeah, let's do a, I had something else lined up. 30:28.880 --> 30:32.560 I'm going to do a comment, audio comment first, and I'll get back to some other stuff that's 30:32.560 --> 30:37.760 been floating around the, the, the, the, the, the blogger sphere and podosh sphere. Greetings and 30:37.760 --> 30:44.800 salutations to you, Prince of Podu. Okay, this starts off great. Isn't that wonderful? This is 30:44.800 --> 30:50.880 Jennifer, the girl on tech. I host the girl on tech podcast at girl on tech.plogspot.com, 30:51.600 --> 30:58.560 and let me get the old Boeing out of the way here, a Boeing moment for you. I enjoy the show tremendously 30:58.640 --> 31:03.920 especially the, uh, I heard that I got some email from, uh, from a couple of people that 31:03.920 --> 31:09.440 Letterman had Boeing now in the top 10 of, uh, of ways to make the news cooler, I think it was, 31:09.440 --> 31:16.400 and maybe it was CBS news, uh, Dan Rathers show, um, and number five was, uh, ad comedic 31:16.400 --> 31:20.240 volume, after every item. The, you know, the Boeing's are getting out there. Now it's mainstream, 31:20.240 --> 31:24.000 you know, Letterman's picked it up. So I guess, well, that's the quote with something else. 31:24.080 --> 31:29.840 A recent show you did the, uh, walking through a South Beach and beautiful Miami. 31:29.840 --> 31:33.920 The sound seeing too. And just keep doing what you're doing out and you're doing a fantastic job. 31:34.720 --> 31:38.400 Okay, Jen. Hey, just talking about Jen. It's my own Jennifer. 31:39.440 --> 31:44.720 Um, quick question for you. Um, as I've mentioned on my blog, I am doing a lecture 31:45.360 --> 31:49.360 at the 2005 Indiana Computer Educators Conference. 31:50.000 --> 31:54.000 Uh, is that hot when we're in talk like that? Hold on, let's just be the real one. 31:56.000 --> 31:57.120 Uh, keep keep me out, baby. 31:57.120 --> 32:04.480 At the 2005 Indiana Computer Educators Conference, excellent teacher. Uh, January 26th through the 29th 32:04.480 --> 32:09.440 and uh, at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianaapolis. My goodness, teacher. Okay, great. 32:10.160 --> 32:19.040 And I'm doing a lecture entitled Classroom MTV using classroom MTV. Wow. 32:20.000 --> 32:23.680 I don't know if the words classroom and MTV can actually be fit into the, into the same 32:23.680 --> 32:29.840 setting using digital media to enhance standards and learning. And all the participants of this lecture 32:29.840 --> 32:36.480 actually going to receive a CD with a software and manuals and how to use that I'm putting together. 32:37.440 --> 32:43.120 And one of the areas that I'm definitely going to cover is blogging, RSS and podcast course. 32:44.000 --> 32:49.920 Um, in the CD, I'm actually including some sample podcast one from James Basour. 32:50.800 --> 32:56.720 I've actually gotten an okay from Jay Rosen to include his academia lecture from blogger 32:56.720 --> 33:03.520 com 3 and I was wanting to ask if you would allow me to include your podcasting lecture 33:04.000 --> 33:09.760 from blogger com 3 as well in the little sample CD. I'd really appreciate it. That's basically 33:09.840 --> 33:14.560 all I've got on my mind. So again, keep up the great work Adam and uh, here's another 33:14.560 --> 33:19.920 boring for you baby. Oh, you have baby. Thank you. Um, that's actually, I guess there's a question 33:19.920 --> 33:24.640 for, for Dave Winner. I'm not sure. Um, I would presume. It sounds actually like the CD 33:24.640 --> 33:30.480 you're making would be a fantastic resource. Uh, so maybe that would be something to think about 33:30.480 --> 33:35.040 if we can get all of that stuff on, uh, on a, on a, on a, on a site somewhere. I mean, that would be 33:35.040 --> 33:38.640 great. Patricia just walking while that clip was playing. You still there, huh? 33:40.080 --> 33:45.440 Come here. You can't do that. Dude, come here. 33:47.200 --> 33:51.520 So Patricia's standing out. And you know, this is why this is why we have studio doors right 33:51.520 --> 33:56.240 that have a big red on air light and has soundproofing. So you can't have like people 33:56.240 --> 34:01.920 standing outside and listening. So she heard the whole Angelina Jolie bit did I lie? Did I lie? Did I 34:01.920 --> 34:09.440 lie? I heard did I lie? Did you say that or not? I said that. Yeah, exactly. And but I'm sure 34:09.440 --> 34:20.800 of myself. I've got great lips too. Oh, boy. Thank you. Okay. I love you very much. I love you, too, baby. 34:21.680 --> 34:25.680 It's okay. But you know, if, if you want to have sex with Angelina Jolie, it's okay, too. 34:25.680 --> 34:33.120 Could you just take a, like video? All right. Okay. She's into it. She, uh, to totally 34:33.120 --> 34:41.760 into it. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Let's call her. Yeah. All right. Cool. Okay. Let's talk something 34:41.760 --> 34:49.840 completely nerdy. Going from the sexual to the nerdy. And he hurts felt. I don't actually 34:49.840 --> 34:55.200 know, I didn't know too much about him, been reading up on him. He's not, not an original founder 34:55.200 --> 35:01.280 of Apple, but he did come in pretty early on the Macintosh. And he's, uh, I think he's coming out 35:01.280 --> 35:09.680 with a book, but he was interviewed recently at, uh, was it seen it or by seen it? And I don't think 35:09.680 --> 35:13.680 he quite understands podcasting. I'm just going to read this bit to you because it was in a written 35:13.680 --> 35:20.560 interview. He says, I'm down on podcasts. I think it's ridiculous. Suddenly it's taking the 35:20.560 --> 35:26.560 information and making it completely inaccessible. You can't read it and besides a podcast is 35:26.640 --> 35:32.880 nothing. It's streaming MP3s. That's good. But no one can take credit for inventing a new term 35:32.880 --> 35:38.400 because streaming MP3s is simple and has been around for a while. Doing it through RSS enclosures 35:38.400 --> 35:45.040 is basically bad to automatically download big files before hearing them. The whole thing about 35:45.040 --> 35:50.240 audio is that it has, that it has to be small, uh, since it's a weird sentence. I'm going to read 35:50.240 --> 35:54.640 it exactly the way it's written. The whole thing about audio is that it has small enough bandwidth 35:54.640 --> 35:59.680 that you can stream. Okay. You just can't stream from an iPod because it doesn't have a network 35:59.680 --> 36:05.360 connection yet. I'm excited about getting an iPod with 802-11 so I can stream to my airport 36:05.360 --> 36:14.240 express without carrying my Macaron. This is, this is so typical. This is exactly the problem. 36:15.280 --> 36:23.280 I presume that Andy Hertzfeld is, is an engineer. He's thinking exactly, he's, he's completely 36:23.360 --> 36:28.720 missing the point and this is probably why Apple hasn't picked up on podcasting because they're 36:28.720 --> 36:34.720 thinking exactly this way precisely the, they're thinking from Apple out to the rest of the world 36:34.720 --> 36:45.120 they're not seeing what's happening. And, you know, to to misunderstand the idea of downloading things 36:45.120 --> 36:51.280 before you've heard them to have, you know, a high-quality experience. I mean, yeah, Andy, sure, 36:51.360 --> 36:57.360 if we all have fucking fiber up our ass wirelessly attached, yeah, okay, I can probably get there, 36:57.360 --> 37:04.160 you know, but it's, anyway, so the entire text is going to be in the production show notes 37:04.160 --> 37:10.080 and it's very discouraging. Of course, it also, you know, this plays completely into, you know, 37:10.080 --> 37:15.040 a lot of the things we were talking in South Beach about and this is where all the opportunity is, 37:15.040 --> 37:21.920 so great, you know, I'm just blown away and you know, these guys aren't dumb, they're just not seeing 37:21.920 --> 37:29.520 it, just not seeing it, not, not living in my world, that's for sure, okay. Wow, yeah, pretty interesting 37:30.240 --> 37:34.080 and how about that, you know, let's, while we're on Apple for a second, let me, what time do I have? 37:34.080 --> 37:37.280 God damn, I'm not going to be able to, well, I could just hurry up through a couple of things here. 37:37.520 --> 37:45.760 So the new Apple products, I think the, the mini is very intriguing, I might actually just buy one, 37:45.760 --> 37:50.080 just to hook it up and see how it works and, I don't know, interesting, very interesting, 37:50.080 --> 37:55.520 there's a little computer like that, although, you know, okay, you're getting laptop, 37:55.520 --> 38:06.560 territory, it's interesting, but the, the iPod shuffle, what? This is like, like, makes no sense at all, 38:06.640 --> 38:10.240 and I, you know, I love stuff that Apple makes, I really do, I mean, clearly, you know that, 38:11.200 --> 38:16.480 but what is up, you know, this shuffle thing and, no, makes no sense to me, and for that kind of money, 38:16.480 --> 38:21.200 I'd get an I river and, and a pair of white, you know what they, do they actually just sell 38:21.200 --> 38:25.360 white headsets, you know, there's a market for you, all you got to do is just sell the white 38:25.360 --> 38:30.320 headphones with a white wire, that's it, that is a million dollar business right there, I'm sure 38:30.320 --> 38:35.040 someone's already doing it, but you've got to totally, you'll go out, market it so that you can 38:35.120 --> 38:40.400 walk around with a piece of shit, MP3 player and iPod, whatever, you know, iPod equivalent, 38:40.400 --> 38:44.240 as long as you have the white headphones, then, you know, you're cool, you're going to be with it, 38:44.240 --> 38:49.120 and maybe, you know, I don't know, but this thing, for the money, it just made no sense to me, 38:49.120 --> 38:58.560 absolutely not, okay, well, I guess, let me see, I had a good joke in there, but I don't feel 38:58.560 --> 39:02.640 like doing a joke today, I'll keep that for tomorrow, okay, although let me just put that down to the 39:02.640 --> 39:09.200 bottom of the outline, yep, still working with my opml show notes, okay, I'm going to play this one 39:09.200 --> 39:14.880 little bit from the podcast brothers, that's a podcast, I listen to regularly, they do crack me up, 39:14.880 --> 39:20.080 and these guys, not quite sure who they are, what they're about, I think they're organizing a podcast 39:20.080 --> 39:27.280 conference pretty soon or maybe a trade show, so I'll have to listen up and check them out and 39:27.280 --> 39:32.720 listen to, you know, what's going on? Of course, I have to go to Starbucks now to download the podcast, 39:32.720 --> 39:38.720 so I may drop behind a pick and how long it takes BT to connect that 40 foot piece of wire. 39:38.720 --> 39:43.920 You can check them out yourself at podcastbrothers.com. Of course, all the podcasts are listed in the 39:43.920 --> 39:50.640 iPod.org directory, that's a great resource, so we can go basically search in the directory 39:51.360 --> 39:57.920 by category, and if you want to hear the list, 100 podcasts, it's audio.weblogs.com, so here's this 39:57.920 --> 40:04.240 clip that was actually released as a clip, I think on the opempodcast.org by the brothers themselves. 40:04.240 --> 40:08.880 Instead, listening to that day's podcast, we noticed that Adam was talking about his hair, so 40:08.880 --> 40:12.080 we didn't get a mashup of his podcast, we hope he likes it. 40:13.280 --> 40:19.280 My hair cut. Personal grooming, my hair, the total package, you know, my eyes, why am I doing 40:19.760 --> 40:23.920 this? She did my hair. I love it when Patricia does my hair. It just looks so good. Could you please 40:23.920 --> 40:28.320 do my hair? So wash it, cut it up a little bit, just perfectly, just the way I love it. And now I 40:28.320 --> 40:33.280 got to be real careful with it. I just did your hair, so it's not to mess up the hair, so the hair 40:33.280 --> 40:39.280 will be beautiful. So Adam, we're just Adam, you're hair, man. Yeah, yeah, you must use a lot of 40:39.280 --> 40:45.520 hair products. Actually, I don't use a lot of hair products, actually. I don't know. I just 40:45.520 --> 40:49.280 like it really dirty, kind of like a rostophari. You know, so you can mold it and shape it and 40:49.280 --> 40:53.680 bend it anyway you want. Some sure. Yeah, hey, you know what? He would be a good, good commercial 40:53.680 --> 40:58.560 now for geeks for a hair product. Well, he should eat. Hey, geeks, you too, could look like me and 40:58.560 --> 41:04.000 get hot chicks who will have sex with you and Angelina, Jolie. Should get somebody should sponsor him. 41:04.000 --> 41:08.800 So hair product. They should. And Adam, who does his rose-coded glasses, but those are cool. 41:08.800 --> 41:14.960 They're also real. They're actually prescription. Minus 2, minus 2.75. And did you see the shirt? 41:14.960 --> 41:19.920 They've won or posted some pictures with them. That's not totally fair. 41:19.920 --> 41:25.600 Oh, my, I mean, South Beach, sorry. South Beach. And these boys are listening to the show. 41:25.600 --> 41:28.880 Adam, very sharp dresser. Really?

Adam, I don't know if 41:42.560 --> 41:49.840 you have his shirt. He does. He actually called yesterday just for that reason. 42:12.640 --> 42:18.560 It's your daily source code. Oh, man. How cool is that? The syvee is biddies everybody. 42:18.560 --> 42:24.160 Great. Give it up for him. Fantastic. And I have it on very good authority that we could be seeing a 42:24.240 --> 42:39.200 bitty cast before too long. That's it for today's podcast. 42:39.200 --> 42:43.920 Come Thursday. And of course, tomorrow we'll be back with the thank god's Friday 42:43.920 --> 42:50.000 edition of the daily source code. All right. That's it. Oh, by the way, 42:50.000 --> 42:55.760 could someone please send me a Gmail invite so I can open up a Gmail account for audio comments? 42:55.760 --> 43:01.600 This is, you know, it's not a control on the Mac account. I only have like 200 megs left over 43:01.600 --> 43:05.840 whatever. So, send me an invite so I can open up something at gmail.com. 43:08.240 --> 43:12.240 Okay, that's it. I'm going to rush off to Starbucks to shoot this up to the server and 43:12.800 --> 43:19.360 be home just in time for some South Beach phone calls. Hey, I'll talk to you tomorrow. 43:19.360 --> 43:25.840 I have more about what's going on. Maybe a British telecom update. Thanks for checking out 43:25.840 --> 43:42.960 take care. See you tomorrow.
