WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:09.000 Okay, testing one, two, one, two, check one, two, three, hey everybody hold on, I don't think 00:09.000 --> 00:10.000 it's just right yet. 00:10.000 --> 00:11.000 Let me crank that up a bit. 00:11.000 --> 00:12.000 Okay. 00:12.000 --> 00:13.000 Is that working? 00:13.000 --> 00:15.000 This is the daily source code. 00:15.000 --> 00:16.000 It's Wednesday. 00:16.000 --> 00:20.000 It's the ninth of March, sorry, April. 00:20.000 --> 00:21.000 No. 00:21.000 --> 00:24.000 March, 2005. 00:24.000 --> 00:29.000 I'm trying out something entirely new, which is so beautiful and elegant. 00:29.000 --> 00:37.000 That if it actually does work, it'll just be a breakthrough in sensing, podcasting, and mobile 00:37.000 --> 00:42.000 podcasting, you can tell I'm missing around with my microphone right now. 00:42.000 --> 00:43.000 Okay. 00:43.000 --> 00:44.000 Shoot. 00:44.000 --> 00:46.000 This is not going the way I planned it. 00:46.000 --> 00:47.000 Hold on. 00:47.000 --> 00:48.000 Put the mic there. 00:48.000 --> 00:49.000 Okay. 00:49.000 --> 00:54.000 It's a little hard to tell if the mic quality is up to speed. 00:54.000 --> 00:56.000 Hold on a sec. 00:56.000 --> 01:01.000 I'm now outputting as much as possible from my wireless setup. 01:01.000 --> 01:07.000 What I've done upon the recommendation from a couple people, as I was on a continuing 01:07.000 --> 01:15.000 quest to find the perfect mobile mixer, said, why don't you use one of those splitters 01:15.000 --> 01:17.000 that people use for headphones? 01:17.000 --> 01:27.000 Hopefully, so one headphone out jack turns into two headphone out jacks, both stereo, 01:27.000 --> 01:32.000 and reverse the process and use that for your input. 01:32.000 --> 01:38.000 Combining the input from my microphone, I won't say. 01:38.000 --> 01:46.000 And the input from a portable player, such as an iPod, and combining those two through 01:46.000 --> 01:52.000 that splitter, and then, you know, just basically it's a one-to-one mixer, and you control 01:52.000 --> 01:56.000 the volume of the audio on the... 01:56.000 --> 01:57.000 Whoa. 01:57.000 --> 01:58.000 Okay. 01:58.000 --> 02:00.000 So I just turned the iPod on. 02:00.000 --> 02:02.000 I think that really... 02:02.000 --> 02:06.000 Well, that's probably the answer to the question, will this work? 02:06.000 --> 02:07.000 Wow. 02:07.000 --> 02:08.000 That was pretty weird. 02:08.000 --> 02:11.000 Let me see if I disconnect the iPod. 02:11.000 --> 02:13.000 Whoops. 02:14.000 --> 02:16.000 Wow. 02:16.000 --> 02:17.000 Hold on. 02:17.000 --> 02:19.000 That's...wait. 02:19.000 --> 02:20.000 Wait a minute. 02:20.000 --> 02:22.000 That's not...Oh, of course not. 02:22.000 --> 02:24.000 I'm not doing it right. 02:24.000 --> 02:25.000 I'm not doing it. 02:25.000 --> 02:27.000 Am I doing it right? 02:27.000 --> 02:28.000 Holy moly. 02:28.000 --> 02:29.000 I'm so confused. 02:29.000 --> 02:30.000 Hold on a second. 02:30.000 --> 02:36.000 I'll put your impulse while I try and think this through for a second. 02:36.000 --> 02:37.000 Okay. 02:37.000 --> 02:39.000 I think you're on pause, by the way. 02:39.000 --> 02:40.000 Okay. 02:40.000 --> 02:42.000 I think I figured it out. 02:42.000 --> 02:47.000 So I have the splitter going into the microphone jack. 02:47.000 --> 02:49.000 The one part, so I'm using the... 02:49.000 --> 02:51.000 What normally would be the out as the... 02:51.000 --> 02:52.000 Is the in part? 02:52.000 --> 02:53.000 Oh. 02:53.000 --> 02:54.000 Man, that sounds so confusing. 02:54.000 --> 02:56.000 And now I'm going to connect... 02:56.000 --> 02:57.000 Bitch is going to do the same thing. 02:57.000 --> 02:59.000 This is probably why you need a mixer, 02:59.000 --> 03:00.000 it's because when you... 03:00.000 --> 03:03.000 Just connect basically the two wires together. 03:03.000 --> 03:04.000 Yeah. 03:04.000 --> 03:05.000 You get that shoot. 03:05.000 --> 03:06.000 That's not really going to work. 03:06.000 --> 03:08.000 At least I don't think. 03:08.000 --> 03:09.000 Unless... 03:09.000 --> 03:10.000 Unless I really... 03:10.000 --> 03:13.000 Can I crank up the volume anymore on the microphone set? 03:13.000 --> 03:14.000 I doubt that, too. 03:14.000 --> 03:16.000 Hello, hello, hello. 03:16.000 --> 03:18.000 Hello, hello, hello, hello. 03:18.000 --> 03:19.000 Okay. 03:19.000 --> 03:20.000 So that's like maximum. 03:20.000 --> 03:23.000 But that could even be overmodulating at this point. 03:23.000 --> 03:24.000 I cannot... 03:24.000 --> 03:26.000 Literally cannot hear myself to the headphones. 03:26.000 --> 03:28.000 So let me just... 03:28.000 --> 03:29.000 See... 03:29.000 --> 03:31.000 I'll just play something sort of... 03:31.000 --> 03:33.000 I have something really... 03:33.000 --> 03:35.000 Short here, don't I? 03:35.000 --> 03:36.000 I've sounded of the day. 03:36.000 --> 03:38.000 Let's play the see what happens. 03:38.000 --> 03:39.000 Okay. 03:39.000 --> 03:44.000 So I can volume down and talk over the music. 03:44.000 --> 03:45.000 And then... 03:45.000 --> 03:46.000 And then I can... 03:46.000 --> 03:47.000 Put it up. 03:47.000 --> 03:51.000 The sound of the day is... 03:51.000 --> 03:53.000 The sound of the day is... 03:53.000 --> 03:55.000 The singing of the music. 03:55.000 --> 04:00.000 Well, there we go. 04:00.000 --> 04:04.000 Watching machine. 04:04.000 --> 04:05.000 All right. 04:05.000 --> 04:07.000 So the question is... 04:07.000 --> 04:09.000 What's the level of the microphone? 04:09.000 --> 04:12.000 Like, it doesn't sound like it's going to be very good. 04:12.000 --> 04:14.000 So I have to say this test is... 04:14.000 --> 04:15.000 Not good. 04:15.000 --> 04:16.000 Not to... 04:16.000 --> 04:17.000 Successful. 04:19.000 --> 04:21.000 Well, let's say the test was successful. 04:21.000 --> 04:23.000 Just the outcome is not what we wanted. 04:29.000 --> 04:30.000 Okay. 04:30.000 --> 04:33.000 I'm going to listen back to this and then we'll start the show. 04:37.000 --> 04:47.000 It's kind of working. 04:47.000 --> 04:48.000 Hey, everybody. 04:48.000 --> 04:49.000 It's kind of working. 04:49.000 --> 04:50.000 Hey. 04:50.000 --> 04:51.000 Welcome to the Daily Source Code. 04:51.000 --> 04:55.000 It's Adam Curry coming to you from the Curry Cottage here in Guilford. 04:55.000 --> 04:57.000 And the lovely... 04:57.000 --> 04:58.000 Was it... 04:58.000 --> 05:00.000 Suburb of Surrey and the United Kingdom. 05:00.000 --> 05:02.000 All mobile today. 05:02.000 --> 05:05.000 The power of the Lord is coming. 05:05.000 --> 05:06.000 I'm trying out the set up. 05:06.000 --> 05:08.000 You just heard me basically set up. 05:08.000 --> 05:15.000 It's kind of interesting because I control the volume of the background or the tune in this case. 05:15.000 --> 05:18.000 Just by twirling my thumb on the iPod wheel. 05:18.000 --> 05:26.000 But I used a headphone connecting wire for the microphone. 05:26.000 --> 05:29.000 Which means there's a little volume control right on the wire. 05:29.000 --> 05:32.000 And I can start to turn that down. 05:33.000 --> 05:35.000 Because that's one thing when you're playing a mashup. 05:35.000 --> 05:37.000 You want to be able to mute your microphone. 05:37.000 --> 05:38.000 So that's now possible. 05:38.000 --> 05:40.000 And it's kind of working. 05:44.000 --> 05:46.000 So we'll give it a shot. 05:46.000 --> 05:50.000 But essentially, I'm doing something that should not be done by any... 05:50.000 --> 05:53.000 Electro-technical... 05:53.000 --> 05:55.000 You know, means or terms. 05:55.000 --> 05:58.000 Because this is exactly why I need a mixer. 05:58.000 --> 06:02.000 You don't have these basically these two outputs just connected to each other. 06:02.000 --> 06:04.000 There's all kinds of crap that's going on. 06:04.000 --> 06:07.000 I'm sure you can probably blow something up doing this as well. 06:07.000 --> 06:08.000 That wouldn't surprise me at all. 06:08.000 --> 06:12.000 But all in the name of science, my friends, all in the name of science. 06:12.000 --> 06:13.000 You know, I didn't... 06:13.000 --> 06:16.000 Oh, man, I didn't even grab my show notes. 06:16.000 --> 06:22.000 Normally I have that all set up because I record direct onto my power book. 06:22.000 --> 06:24.000 So here we go. 06:24.000 --> 06:25.000 Wow, this is kind of cool. 06:26.000 --> 06:28.000 Oh, is it already starting to sound crappy now? 06:28.000 --> 06:29.000 Is that? 06:29.000 --> 06:33.000 Well, we'll just go through the whole show and then see where we wind up. 06:33.000 --> 06:35.000 How about a mash-up? 06:35.000 --> 06:38.000 Ooh, how about the D.J. skills? 06:38.000 --> 06:41.000 This can skip me to the next track on the iPod. 06:41.000 --> 06:43.000 This is a mash-up. 06:43.000 --> 06:45.000 This is the saled-y-said. 06:45.000 --> 06:47.000 The Beatles vs. Paul McCartney. 06:47.000 --> 06:49.000 It's the Bradmix on the source code. 06:51.250 --> 09:33.750 [ Music ] 09:40.000 --> 09:42.000 The Beatles vs. Paul McCartney. 09:42.000 --> 09:49.000 Say Lady say the Vietnamese just one of the many nice workshops I got received. 09:49.000 --> 09:53.640 Well, over the past couple of weeks, it seems to just really pick up a lot. 09:53.640 --> 09:58.360 A couple of things I want to talk with you about today, let's see. 09:58.360 --> 10:05.800 One of them I received an email from, we'll just call this person, DJ Ultra Violet, 10:05.800 --> 10:07.400 and I hope this is sounding okay. 10:07.400 --> 10:10.200 I can hear kinds of crackling and shit. 10:10.200 --> 10:11.800 And she's a lawyer. 10:11.800 --> 10:17.960 And basically, she said, hey, if you have any questions about this music licensing stuff, 10:17.960 --> 10:23.640 why don't you let me know, and then I said, well, very simply, is there a way for me to pay 10:23.640 --> 10:31.880 to play R-I-A-A licensed music on a podcast, and how much is it? 10:31.880 --> 10:33.160 That was the only question. 10:33.160 --> 10:37.880 And I think one of the problems is, shit, I'm sorry, that's the crackling. 10:37.880 --> 10:39.240 There we go. 10:39.960 --> 10:41.400 And that's literally all I wanted to know. 10:42.600 --> 10:47.560 And she actually came back with some very interesting thoughts and ideas, 10:47.560 --> 10:51.960 which I can't publish in the show notes, because she checked it with her law firm. 10:51.960 --> 10:57.400 And obviously there's no one need the aggravation of having to check all this stuff. 10:57.400 --> 11:03.400 If she could say that, or if I could podcast it, but sound exchange, sound exchange.com 11:04.840 --> 11:08.840 is the royalty collection agency for digital music webcasting. 11:10.120 --> 11:15.560 And so the question now, of course, does podcasting belong in the webcasting category? 11:15.560 --> 11:16.280 I don't think so. 11:17.320 --> 11:23.000 It seems like just about everything would fit within their license. 11:24.920 --> 11:31.640 But let me see, I'm reading here, yeah, because podcasts are basically archived, 11:31.640 --> 11:33.880 and not, you know, streamed that could be a problem. 11:34.760 --> 11:37.480 And it's also, it will be $500 a year. 11:37.480 --> 11:39.720 Oh, oh, that was interesting. 11:40.920 --> 11:41.960 Crap, of course. 11:42.360 --> 11:44.120 So the iPod switched off. 11:45.080 --> 11:48.520 And then it automatically gave control back to the microphone. 11:49.320 --> 11:51.800 This may not be a very handy way of doing this. 11:51.800 --> 11:54.840 I'm going to have to pay attention to how this is going now. 11:54.840 --> 11:55.240 Okay. 11:56.040 --> 12:00.680 So sound exchange.com, you know, I'm going to be reading through it and see if there's anything, 12:02.280 --> 12:05.880 that might actually work, and who knows, maybe someone over there is listening, 12:05.880 --> 12:06.920 and they can help us out. 12:09.000 --> 12:10.680 Email from bicyclemark. 12:11.640 --> 12:13.080 Oh, yeah, he was doing something interesting. 12:13.080 --> 12:14.040 I wanted to tell you about. 12:14.040 --> 12:19.400 And just go to Google and search for a bicycle mark, the bicycle mark communique, 12:19.400 --> 12:23.640 or, of course, you can go into the iPod directory at iPod about org. 12:23.640 --> 12:27.320 And you can pick up there under sound seeing tours or sound seeing tours.com. 12:27.320 --> 12:29.800 You can find bicycle mark almost anywhere you want. 12:31.000 --> 12:34.840 But he's done a reverse sound seeing tour, as it were. 12:34.840 --> 12:37.160 Remember, he did that cool thing with the flicker photos, 12:37.160 --> 12:39.960 which is not really catching on, where he plays a little tone. 12:40.040 --> 12:43.080 And then you click through the flicker slide show. 12:44.040 --> 12:47.320 So now he's actually doing it like Uncle Stan's slide show. 12:47.320 --> 12:49.320 You know, when he comes over and boars the whole family, 12:49.320 --> 12:50.360 only it's not that boring. 12:51.320 --> 12:59.080 And he's doing the audio commentary after he photographed the slide show. 12:59.080 --> 13:00.200 God, this sounds horrible. 13:00.920 --> 13:03.240 Oh my god, you know, I'm just going to check this and see how this sounds. 13:03.240 --> 13:05.320 This is, this is starting to become worrisome. 13:06.280 --> 13:10.040 Yeah. So, you know, kind of as I thought it doesn't sound too hot, 13:10.040 --> 13:13.720 but I'll just leave it for now and we'll just use it as an experiment. 13:13.720 --> 13:17.720 So, hey, all I really need is just a mixture between those two inputs. 13:17.720 --> 13:21.880 One little mixture, and with, you know, with a way to pot down the microphone, 13:21.880 --> 13:24.440 which I think I've already found. I mean, that they were almost there. 13:25.480 --> 13:27.000 Okay, so that was bicycle mark. 13:27.720 --> 13:30.280 I had to, what is this? The next track I wanted to play, 13:30.920 --> 13:34.200 mouse pad report. I think I know if that was a promo or not. 13:34.200 --> 13:39.640 It's, uh, I compiled this, uh, the day before yesterday, so I'm a little fuzzy on exactly what we're 13:39.640 --> 13:45.480 going to do. Let's check it out. Adam Curry, the pod father, our father in pod. 13:45.480 --> 13:49.560 Oh, yeah. King Curry, give my love to the queen, Dawn. 13:49.560 --> 13:54.680 I got to save the queen. This is a promo with no production value. 13:54.680 --> 13:58.840 Uh-huh. Who why what else do we need? Me, you, the mic, we got everything. 13:59.640 --> 14:04.280 This is a three-ring pod cast. WWEW.3ringpodcast.com. 14:05.320 --> 14:08.920 It's about life, the universe, and everything. 14:09.480 --> 14:12.520 No more pod cast about nothing. Who wants to listen to that? 14:12.520 --> 14:17.720 We're about everything. So, come on. Show some love for the new boys on the block. 14:17.720 --> 14:22.360 We were down with the mashups and the hit test. It's all good. But come on. 14:22.360 --> 14:25.400 There's new boys on the block. We're not getting any. We're not getting any love. 14:25.480 --> 14:28.840 Lightly from you. Spreading love. It's a more promo. It's all right. 14:28.840 --> 14:33.080 I discovered some of my favorite pod castes through your show. So, let's go. 14:33.080 --> 14:38.840 One or two a day. Won't kill you. Never one will love it. So, come on. Jump on my train. 14:38.840 --> 14:43.320 We're having a good time at the three-ringpodcast. Check us out. Thanks. 14:43.320 --> 14:50.920 Late. Oh, is that it now? That's the new thing. Late. All right, bro. Late. Cool. Uh, absolutely. 14:51.000 --> 14:58.360 So, um, the mixer that I would love to have is, you know, it runs on like a, um, 14:58.360 --> 15:02.760 it runs on like one battery, right? And it just mixes these two input signals. And that's really all it 15:02.760 --> 15:09.960 has to do. Um, and it, but it has to, you know, I'm sure radio shacket has something like this. 15:09.960 --> 15:14.680 I just got to go visit one. I get to find them. My nearest radio shack. You know that in America, 15:15.320 --> 15:21.240 I think it's every American, almost every American lives within 15 minutes of a radio shack. 15:22.280 --> 15:26.120 Yeah, we pitched their business once. Didn't get it, but it was fun pitching. Learning about radio 15:26.120 --> 15:31.000 shack. I was like, I kind of grew up in radio shack. So, obviously, you know, it's kind of silly. 15:31.000 --> 15:38.760 I'm sitting here with a, uh, you know, 350 dollar iPod. I've got a, uh, it was a $250 dollar, uh, 15:38.840 --> 15:43.400 I river. I've got my wireless set, which is not necessary, of course. But that's, you know, 15:43.400 --> 15:48.600 the only, uh, love microphone I have. I can kind of walk around with. So, it's an expensive solution, 15:48.600 --> 15:52.760 but still even those two devices. I mean, it could easily be combined in the one, just put the 15:52.760 --> 15:58.600 input on the box. And, um, and kind of, uh, yeah, this playlist, uh, what ideas I just, uh, 15:58.600 --> 16:03.640 compiled a little playlist on iTunes of the stuff I wanted to play in today's show. And, uh, 16:03.720 --> 16:10.680 and, you know, I scroll to that in the iPod, and there you go. It's, uh, uh, it's basically, 16:10.680 --> 16:15.560 I'm trying to keep it from popping off. So, they're setting for that, actually, let me see. 16:16.440 --> 16:23.880 So, they're setting, oh, man, iPod is not great. Let me see, shuffle repeat. 16:23.880 --> 16:35.560 Does it have a timeout? Has the backlight timer, but that's, hmm, interesting. So, I guess you 16:35.560 --> 16:44.600 can't set that. All right. I go back to today's playlist. Ah. Um, now I had something written down 16:44.600 --> 16:51.400 about podcast alley. I know that podcast alley has changed its voting system. Um, to, what is it? 16:51.400 --> 16:56.600 And I think you can vote once a month. That's interesting. I'm talking with the Chris from podcast 16:56.600 --> 17:00.600 alley. It's a very interesting guy. He's got some fun stuff going on over there. But I think that 17:00.600 --> 17:07.240 we can do, um, there is a real ratings component to, uh, podcast, and that I haven't really looked 17:07.240 --> 17:12.920 at that much, but I hear, uh, lots of people talking about it. And obviously, I think what we're looking 17:13.080 --> 17:21.720 at is, um, because the mainstream media really loves, um, you know, easy, easy ways to show 17:22.520 --> 17:28.360 their readership or their viewership or listenership, um, you know, what is going on in a certain 17:28.360 --> 17:33.000 community. It's really easy to, to pick something and say, oh, well, here's the top 10 of anything. 17:33.000 --> 17:39.400 And so, and, and that's actually not that bad. Um, but, you know, the, the gripes are that, you know, 17:39.480 --> 17:44.040 it's the top 10 of why. There's kind of like having a top 10 of web logs. So maybe if we define 17:44.040 --> 17:49.240 it a little bit better, and we made, uh, I, I think we can do something with this voting. I guess that's 17:49.240 --> 17:54.280 what I'm saying. Um, and we should be able to convert that energy into something really good for 17:54.280 --> 17:59.800 everybody. So I've been thinking about that thinking about it a lot. Um, and, uh, who knows what 17:59.800 --> 18:04.840 else, uh, you may be you're out there thinking about some things as well, um, because it's just 18:04.920 --> 18:11.160 amazing to see this happen. It's really cool. Um, to have all this fury flying and then you're 18:11.160 --> 18:15.480 here, uh, Don and Drew talking about, oh, no, we were not, we're not going to talk about it anymore. 18:15.480 --> 18:23.960 And, uh, and Madge Weinstein over East Radio, um, you know, has, has her take on it as well. It's just, 18:23.960 --> 18:28.520 it's, uh, it's been interesting. And this new podcast that I found, and I, at first I thought I was 18:28.600 --> 18:35.640 going to be repurposed content kind of like the Pepsi Max, um, what they call that Pepsi Max is doing 18:35.640 --> 18:40.600 a promotion. It's a, I think they do it on UK radio stations. And they're basically just repurposing 18:40.600 --> 18:47.400 that in a podcast, which is, it's cool, um, although the, ah, shit, did it again. Although the, um, 18:47.400 --> 18:53.400 uh, what is it? The humor is, it's very British humor. So, you know, it's a, a wind up, that's what 18:53.400 --> 18:58.680 they call it, a wind up is where, you know, basically the prank phone calling people. Um, but this 18:58.680 --> 19:04.920 podcast is something that, uh, I think it can actually get into. And once I get my life a little bit, 19:04.920 --> 19:09.960 you know, more structured, uh, just been a lot going on as you heard yesterday. I'm still traveling a 19:09.960 --> 19:16.200 lot and, uh, and tying up loose ends all over the globe. Um, I'd like to, you know, get back into 19:16.200 --> 19:21.240 the habit of, uh, walking or, you know, more regular exercise, uh, I've threatened Patricia that 19:21.320 --> 19:26.520 we're actually going to, uh, uh, you know, go to the gym one of these days and get that started as well. 19:26.520 --> 19:35.160 And we will, uh, but this podcast is from Marina and actually, uh, it's, uh, it's what you want, 19:35.160 --> 19:42.600 you know, you want a daily fresh mix of exercise music with someone, very motivated about helping 19:42.600 --> 19:48.840 you exercise. Here's the first of the podcast by Marina. This is Marina and you're listening to my 19:48.840 --> 19:54.680 high energy fitness, sing off the pound. If you work out all the time or you never worked out before, 19:54.680 --> 20:00.680 we're going to have a great time today, burn lots of calories. Whoo! You see, it doesn't matter what 20:00.680 --> 20:07.240 kind of workout you're into, walking, running, spinning, aerobic fans, as long as you never stop 20:07.240 --> 20:13.240 moving. So come on, let's have better times. Yeah, okay. Let's work out. Let's have better times together. 20:13.480 --> 20:19.800 And then I thought it was like, oh, this is just one of those exercise tapes, but then somewhere 20:19.800 --> 20:25.480 I heard the word podcast pop up, probably around here somewhere because, I don't think I could 20:25.480 --> 20:37.240 listen to this music for a very long. But, uh, is that her singing? No. And mine feet. That's interesting. 20:38.200 --> 20:43.160 It's a 10-minute, you know. So it's the perfect, uh, perfect length, too. It's not one of those, 20:43.160 --> 20:48.680 you know, really long ones that you're going to pause midway anyway. We see if I can pass forward. 20:48.680 --> 20:53.800 I knew there was something about podcast. I knew it's that. 20:59.800 --> 21:01.960 All right, wait, it must have been that piece, hold on. 21:02.920 --> 21:06.920 You're doing a great job. Thanks for being with me today. On the part. 21:09.240 --> 21:16.760 There it is, you see? Yeah, that's cool. All right, let's go everybody. 21:20.120 --> 21:27.880 Okay. Oh, baby, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay. 21:32.200 --> 21:51.320 Okay, all right. All right, all right, it may be way too early for you for this 21:51.320 --> 21:55.160 crap. So I'll turn this down. You know, I'll keep it on in the background so I can use that as my 21:55.160 --> 21:58.760 don't turn off the iPod mechanism while we talk a little bit more. 21:59.160 --> 22:06.280 Well, I discovered something interesting. The gaming guys out there, I got an email from, uh, 22:06.280 --> 22:12.760 was it Aaron? And, uh, we starts off as email, which I will put in the show notes, you know, 22:12.760 --> 22:17.880 by saying that he received started playing Grand Theft Auto, Vice City, uh, as Xbox after, 22:17.880 --> 22:24.840 you know, finishing it months ago. It turns out that there's a lot of stuff going on with Xbox 22:24.840 --> 22:30.440 and Xbox Live, and basically the gaming developers who I think use the dot net infrastructure, 22:30.440 --> 22:38.520 or, or, or, I'm sorry, direct X, God, I know nothing about Windows. But they are, uh, creating 22:38.520 --> 22:45.240 some really cool audio tools. Uh, in fact, you can, uh, you can listen to different radio stations now 22:45.240 --> 22:50.280 while you're driving the car in the game. And they're also this Xbox Live stuff is, you know, 22:50.360 --> 22:56.040 it's, I've been looking into it. I'm not a gamer at all. We have an Xbox, uh, Christina has an 22:56.040 --> 23:02.040 Xbox. I don't even think we unpacked it, you know, we're just not really gamers. And, uh, but I was 23:02.040 --> 23:07.560 interested because this stuff obviously runs in, uh, in Windows, and there may be some really 23:07.560 --> 23:11.720 good slick tools that can be made from the gaming community. So I'm pretty excited about that, 23:11.720 --> 23:19.400 and I reached out to Larry, remember we played Larry's promo, he's from Microsoft. He's from the 23:19.480 --> 23:23.640 Xbox division. So, no, we'll see if we can get any traction with that. I just thought it was kind 23:23.640 --> 23:30.360 of interesting that all this activity is going on. And, and there's some, uh, gamers now Xbox, 23:30.360 --> 23:33.960 I don't know if their developers are just gamers or both, but they are also doing podcasts, 23:35.720 --> 23:41.080 you know, about gaming. So there's something going on. I'm definitely going to try and figure 23:41.080 --> 23:46.120 out where the community is and, uh, and, you know, introduce myself and see if we can connect 23:46.200 --> 23:51.160 something here, because I think there is something going on for sure. And now, cue the next track. 23:51.880 --> 23:55.880 Oops. Oh, that's just from my buddy, P.W. Fenton. 23:56.440 --> 24:18.760 Oh, Adam, and welcome to the geriatric hit test. We have a doozy for you today. So what do you say? 24:18.840 --> 24:28.280 We get started. We get out three great songs for you to identify. So what do you say? 24:28.280 --> 24:35.640 We get started. Rock and roll. Oh, you said that already. Oh, I did it. Okay, then get 24:35.640 --> 24:50.120 ready, Adam. Here comes number one. Oh, what was that? It's a neat little drop. 24:50.760 --> 25:06.200 Okay, what a wonderful song. Yeah. Okay, let's begin with number one. 25:06.280 --> 25:10.840 Grandpa, he did that one already. Look, we're 21. We have two. Oh, we're two. 25:12.840 --> 25:29.960 Okay, then here comes number three. Oh, number three. Nice bumper. 25:30.920 --> 25:37.080 White Christmas? No. 25:43.720 --> 25:50.600 Now, here comes the answers. Okay, we missed number two. Number one was the Pentalvania 25:50.600 --> 25:56.920 Polka by Miron Florian in his accordion. Oh, okay. 26:04.600 --> 26:10.040 And the Pental. Okay, I should have known that actually. Patricia would have known that one. 26:10.920 --> 26:18.920 Number two was when the we do number two. No, you didn't. No, grandpa. You skipped number two. 26:20.760 --> 26:27.080 Well, he answered a number two would have been when the moon comes over the mountain by Kate Smith. 26:27.080 --> 26:34.280 Oh, sorry, I didn't play. In finding number three. 26:35.240 --> 26:41.480 Freak grandpa. Uh, it's getting me. Number three. Number three. 26:41.720 --> 26:54.520 Oh, wait, I could find it. Wait, number. Number three was tenderly by Rosemary Clooney. 26:57.320 --> 26:59.160 Another one Patricia would have known. I'm sure. 27:00.120 --> 27:06.120 They've never seen it before. 27:06.120 --> 27:08.120 Oh, yeah. 27:14.120 --> 27:18.840 Let's ramble in trees and brace the brain. 27:21.720 --> 27:27.880 Okay, well, that's today's hit test. Where's Nan? Lunchtime yet. 27:27.960 --> 27:32.840 We already had lunch, grandpa. Go tell Nan. It's lunch time and we're ready for lunch. 27:39.720 --> 27:45.800 I think yeah, that is from my buddy Peter. It's great creativity, my man. Thank you very, very much. 27:46.680 --> 27:51.800 Oh, boy. Um, let's see. What else we're going to talk about? Have a couple of things written down here. 27:51.800 --> 27:58.360 Um, a lot of, um, these are really, I prepared, as I said, prepared this the day before yesterday. 27:58.360 --> 28:01.960 And I'm not quite sure what I was thinking at the time. But I wrote down to talk about the death of 28:01.960 --> 28:07.240 radio. And there is a discussion as a conversation going on now about radio. And I think the 28:07.240 --> 28:12.600 wired article really picked up on that or wired magazine, you know, looked at different angles. 28:12.600 --> 28:18.520 Uh, I think that even the cover says the death of radio as we know it and they looked at 28:19.160 --> 28:26.600 different types of broadcasting and distribution methods really that are taking some hold. 28:27.160 --> 28:32.120 But more importantly, and I think that that's really where the conversation should be going is not 28:32.120 --> 28:39.480 necessarily about the distribution. But, um, I think that we have a whole generation of people growing 28:39.480 --> 28:45.240 up and we've talked about this before who really just, you know, are not interested in what radio 28:45.320 --> 28:52.920 has to offer. Um, and, and the, uh, I don't know if you remember the, um, the podcast I did 28:52.920 --> 28:56.840 with Christina when I took her to school and I said, you know, what, what radio station do you do? 28:56.840 --> 29:01.480 Listen, the radio, I think I said. And she said, yeah, listen to, uh, the eagle. And in the same 29:01.480 --> 29:06.920 breath, she said, because you can go up there to the studio and hold up her request in front of the 29:06.920 --> 29:13.640 window. And I'm like, yeah, that is exactly what this whole new generation that grew up with messenger 29:14.600 --> 29:23.320 and, uh, and, you know, so MSN and hotmail or Xbox, you know, that's exactly what they're used to, 29:23.320 --> 29:28.680 you know, it is feedback, direct immediate feedback where something happens, you know, a way to 29:28.680 --> 29:34.520 be a part of the process, to be a part of, um, of the creation of the output of the product. And that is, 29:34.520 --> 29:42.120 I think a big part of what weblogs, uh, are about, uh, or met many whoop, holy crap. This is just not a 29:42.200 --> 29:49.400 good way to do it. Um, uh, wait, can I put on? Let's, uh, let's find a track. 29:51.560 --> 29:56.040 Wow, this really screws it all up, doesn't it? Oh, man, why do I shouldn't have done this way? 29:56.040 --> 30:03.800 Hold on. Well, now I'm committed. We find something from the 70s music been, uh, 30:04.760 --> 30:12.120 oh, man. Okay, we'll just put this in the background. Really, quietly. Okay. 30:13.720 --> 30:19.000 Right. So I was talking about, uh, yeah, that Christina really liked being able to be a part 30:19.560 --> 30:25.000 of the process of what is happening on that radio station. And of course, the fact that her friends are 30:25.000 --> 30:29.560 listening to it because it's local. And that's when radio really does work best. And I think that's what 30:29.640 --> 30:35.560 radio has proven throughout its history to do incredibly well. Um, is within a local community. And, 30:35.560 --> 30:39.960 you know, that is a little bit more than the local temperature and the local traffic conditions. 30:39.960 --> 30:44.920 Granted, those are probably, you know, 70% of the information people need from their local 30:44.920 --> 30:50.120 radio stations. But, you know, there's a lot. And whenever you hear that, you know, uh, the community, 30:51.160 --> 30:57.400 bullet board or whatever, uh, whatever the, that particular segment may be called, which is basically 30:57.480 --> 31:02.200 run as a PSA public service announcement. That's important. That's an important part of, um, 31:02.200 --> 31:07.000 of what radio broadcasting is about. And it's also a part of the license of these stations and 31:07.000 --> 31:12.040 obligation, uh, to work for the community. And that's for a reason. And I think part of that 31:12.040 --> 31:16.360 reason is because that's what radio really does extremely well. And then you're using, you know, 31:16.360 --> 31:25.720 the public airwaves to their maximum benefit. Wow. Um, so if podcasting is, uh, going to follow 31:25.800 --> 31:33.400 that model or any type of, um, uh, communication audio communication, maybe I should call it, 31:33.400 --> 31:37.640 that is mobile. Because that's real important, right? It's very important that this stuff is mobile. 31:37.640 --> 31:41.480 Because that, that's what, you know, part of the big revelation of radio was, is that, you know, 31:41.480 --> 31:48.040 this could be, um, enjoyed anywhere. Notice it didn't say receives, but it could be enjoyed anywhere. 31:48.040 --> 31:53.560 So, um, podcasting, whether it's, uh, I guess any type of content really, but let's just, you know, 31:53.640 --> 31:57.960 look at audio because that seems to be happening will work really well in smaller communities. 31:59.800 --> 32:05.880 The, uh, the thing that that we're then going to bump up against is, well, you know, it takes 32:05.880 --> 32:13.160 a time to do this. And, uh, some people not all, certainly not all, probably only a few, 32:13.160 --> 32:21.800 really on a grand scale, will want to make money, um, by doing this. And to me, it's, it's all 32:21.880 --> 32:27.160 down to the content, you know, uh, you can be just as funny as John Stewart, and you're going to have 32:27.160 --> 32:33.320 just as much opportunity, uh, to be as successful. Um, you know, it's take away the TV show part, 32:33.320 --> 32:38.200 but, you know what I'm saying? Uh, because those barriers are coming down and it's, and it's only 32:38.200 --> 32:44.440 going to come down to who can move fast, who can be the best. It's going to be quality, uh, 32:44.440 --> 32:49.800 over anything else, which is going to make the playing field incredibly level and very, 32:49.880 --> 32:53.400 very interesting. We'll be able to see the battle much better when there are no hills on the 32:53.400 --> 32:58.280 battle field. And I'm looking forward to a lot of that. Uh, so in the background, you've been 32:58.280 --> 33:03.960 listening to Food Rotten, fell in love, uh, Elven Bishop with, um, it was a Mickey Hart who, uh, 33:03.960 --> 33:11.400 who's saying on that particular track. Uh, and now I'm going to move over to a bit of cadence, 33:11.400 --> 33:16.200 which we haven't heard in a while, and I thought I'd play one for you. Uh, the Leland Standford, 33:16.200 --> 33:20.840 Jr. University, marching band. Here's the incomparables. 33:23.750 --> 34:46.840 [ Music ] 34:46.840 --> 35:06.200 Yeah. More than just a cadence, actually. And the crowd goes absolutely wild. 35:07.080 --> 35:13.800 Roundabout, the Leland Standford, Jr. University, marching band. Uh, here on the daily source code. 35:14.760 --> 35:19.160 Actually, I'm, I have about, uh, what is it? To 10 more minutes, and then I'm going to do a Skype call. 35:19.720 --> 35:25.080 It's almost 2pm here in the UK. So, uh, I'll be 9 a.m. people on the East Coast waking up. 35:26.200 --> 35:31.400 Um, and, um, may I just say, although I'm always a bit wary of complimenting technology too much, 35:31.400 --> 35:37.240 because that's usually when Murphy goes, ah, pound of fuck with you. Um, Skype really is rocking. 35:37.240 --> 35:42.280 I mean, these guys, they have it. Stay ahead. It's great. I love it. I totally love it. I, 35:42.760 --> 35:49.000 can build a virtual company using Skype. You know, it is, it's just outrageous. The conferencing capability. 35:49.000 --> 35:53.400 Certainly now they're available on the Mac. You know, a conference in two, three people who are on Skype, 35:53.400 --> 35:59.000 then conference in someone just by calling a phone number. Um, and, you know, make no mistake. 35:59.000 --> 36:03.960 Skype is the phone company. This is what's going to happen. They, uh, they already have, 36:03.960 --> 36:09.640 what is it? How many people are online right now? So, 2.2 million users online, 36:10.600 --> 36:17.480 a percentage of them has Skype out. I think it's like 900,000 of them have Skype out and are using that. 36:17.480 --> 36:25.480 So, you pay 1.1 euro cents a minute anywhere in the world to make a phone call. As a little bit more, 36:25.480 --> 36:31.000 if you call cell phones in the Netherlands, for instance, but still it's a great deal. It's good 36:31.000 --> 36:36.120 to deal. You're going to get almost anywhere else down to pennies. Um, so everyone's kind of used 36:36.120 --> 36:41.560 to this combination of free-foning and then using Skype to make phone calls because it's incredibly 36:41.560 --> 36:46.600 cost-effective. And next, they give everybody Skype in, which means you can have a phone number 36:46.600 --> 36:51.000 wherever you are, wherever you want it to be. And then they're the phone companies, as far as I'm concerned. 36:51.000 --> 36:57.240 So, excellent. I really love what those guys are doing. And that is, that to me is ground-breaking 36:57.240 --> 37:03.800 stuff. Um, congratulations to the former Cazard dudes who served their shop once in Amsterdam. Very cool. 37:04.600 --> 37:10.440 Okay. So, finishing it off just following on some questions or some questions that 37:11.320 --> 37:17.320 were raised during one of my, I think, Mr. Mom Podcast, Terry Wogan Show on BBC 2 on Radio 2, 37:17.880 --> 37:25.480 runs from 730 to 930. Um, and that's according to an email from Jonathan, who goes through a 37:25.480 --> 37:30.760 little more detail about Terry's show. So, if you want to find out about that, check the show notes 37:30.840 --> 37:37.800 for today's podcast, which is March 9th, 2005. And also, it says something very interesting about 37:37.800 --> 37:42.120 dish washes. I'm going to, because I'm saying, I'm not a big fan of dish washes, because basically 37:42.120 --> 37:47.320 you're handling the plates twice, you know, putting a minute taking about. And here's what Jonathan 37:47.320 --> 37:52.440 said, and I like this. He says, there's a school of thought that holds that you need two dish washers 37:52.440 --> 37:58.440 and no cupboards in your kitchen. Start off with one dishwasher full of clean crockery and cutlery, 37:58.520 --> 38:04.520 which means plates and so forth. As items are used, stack them in the other dishwasher. When 38:04.520 --> 38:08.520 it's full, run it, take the clean dishes, as needed from it, then stack them in the first one, 38:08.520 --> 38:15.160 and so on. I'm like, dude, that's like totally a great idea. I'm really digging that. 38:15.160 --> 38:19.960 Two dish washes. I think that we have stumbled upon something really, really, really big here. 38:28.440 --> 38:32.760 Right on, the official one. Well, hello Adam. This is hit test number 20. Right on. 38:32.760 --> 38:35.480 And if you're ready, we haven't done this one yet, have we? 38:35.480 --> 38:38.200 Wait, this is number one.
