It's not the 13th. 00:49.000 --> 00:51.000 I guess it's officially the 11th. 00:51.000 --> 00:54.000 So let's just say this is for the 12th of April. 00:54.000 --> 00:56.000 Ah, well, you know, Jetlight. 00:56.000 --> 00:59.000 That's what Jetlight will do to you, I guess. 00:59.000 --> 01:01.000 Hey everybody, how you doing? 01:01.000 --> 01:05.000 Coming to you from the Beta Cast Blaster. 01:05.000 --> 01:08.000 Which means I'm on the headset right now. 01:08.000 --> 01:12.000 I'm in my hotel room. 01:12.000 --> 01:19.000 And I am completely knackered in a good English way. 01:19.000 --> 01:24.000 So we would say, because Matt, the day started at... 01:24.000 --> 01:28.000 Let's see, I left the house at 7 a.m. Guilford time. 01:29.000 --> 01:33.000 And right now it's about 5 a.m. in the UK. 01:37.000 --> 01:40.000 That's right, it's almost been 24 straight hours for me. 01:40.000 --> 01:42.000 But I feel pretty good actually. 01:42.000 --> 01:47.000 Just got back from a lovely dinner in the basement here at the Waldorf Astoria. 01:47.000 --> 01:49.000 It's the infamous... 01:49.000 --> 01:52.000 What is it? Bare and beer or something like that? 01:52.000 --> 02:00.000 A steak chop house where they basically hang dead cows up for 21 days to dry and cure 02:00.000 --> 02:05.000 and then they throw it on your table and somehow you eat that. 02:05.000 --> 02:09.000 It's pretty amazing actually. 02:09.000 --> 02:13.000 Okay, so it's been quite a journey. 02:13.000 --> 02:20.000 As I said, left the house, left the cottage at 7 a.m. 02:21.000 --> 02:23.000 Hopped on a brand new air carrier. 02:23.000 --> 02:25.000 At least for me it's a brand new air carrier. 02:25.000 --> 02:28.000 Virgin Atlantic never traveled with them. 02:28.000 --> 02:30.000 I actually, I think it was... 02:30.000 --> 02:32.000 Virgin Atlantic started... 02:32.000 --> 02:35.000 What did they start? Probably around... 02:35.000 --> 02:38.000 Hmm, let me think, maybe around 10 years ago, right? 02:38.000 --> 02:40.000 And I do remember one time. 02:40.000 --> 02:44.000 No, in fact, it was 1996 just before we took our company 02:44.000 --> 02:48.000 think new ideas public and we did our European road show. 02:48.000 --> 02:54.000 And we were booked to return back to New York on Virgin Atlantic. 02:54.000 --> 02:59.000 But we showed up like 59 minutes before the flight was scheduled to leave. 02:59.000 --> 03:03.000 It's pretty much the rule. Certainly in the UK, gate closes, gate closed. 03:03.000 --> 03:04.000 You ain't getting on. 03:04.000 --> 03:07.000 So I kind of... I think at that time we swore up and down 03:07.000 --> 03:11.000 and swore we'd never again fly Virgin Atlantic, which we'd never done. 03:11.000 --> 03:14.000 But I gave it a new shot. 03:14.000 --> 03:18.000 And I must say, I was pleasantly surprised. 03:18.000 --> 03:23.000 You know, what a little bit of set dressing and marketing. 03:23.000 --> 03:27.000 You know, just making people feel good will do. 03:27.000 --> 03:29.000 It goes quite a long way. 03:29.000 --> 03:32.000 This really gave me the old feeling of flying back. 03:32.000 --> 03:33.000 Now I'm old enough. 03:33.000 --> 03:36.000 And boy, am I feeling it now? I'm, you know, being 40. 03:36.000 --> 03:41.000 I remember when we used to go traveling when I was a young boy. 03:41.000 --> 03:44.000 I maybe five or six years old. 03:44.000 --> 03:48.000 And my parents would dress me up in a nice little suit right in my sisters. 03:48.000 --> 03:54.000 I would have a little cute little frocks on with the white gloves and the black shoes, 03:54.000 --> 03:56.000 you know, the shiny black shoes. 03:56.000 --> 03:58.000 Because we were going flying. 03:58.000 --> 04:03.000 And a lot of that old school, old world feeling kind of comes back to you 04:03.000 --> 04:05.000 when you fly Virgin Atlantic. 04:05.000 --> 04:08.000 They have the plush, red carpeting. 04:08.000 --> 04:14.000 And the stewardesses have their hair up in buns, even the stewardes actually. 04:14.000 --> 04:19.000 They continuously give you all kinds of snacks and drinks and make you feel right at home. 04:19.000 --> 04:23.000 And I didn't fly in there infamous upper class. 04:23.000 --> 04:27.000 I just can't bring myself to pay that kind of money anymore to lay down. 04:27.000 --> 04:30.000 If someone else paying for it, it'd be more than happy to, you know, 04:30.000 --> 04:34.000 sometimes I will splurge like the last time when I went back from San Francisco. 04:34.000 --> 04:39.000 That was on British Airways, but I got something they call the premium economy, 04:39.000 --> 04:41.000 which gives you a lot of flexibility. 04:41.000 --> 04:43.000 You can change your flights, you know, if you want to. 04:43.000 --> 04:46.000 And you get enough leg rooms that I can actually with six foot four. 04:46.000 --> 04:52.000 I can actually sit down and, you know, and almost kind of sleep comfortably. 04:52.000 --> 04:55.000 Everything was perfect except for one thing. 04:55.000 --> 04:59.000 They have this video on demand service on board. 04:59.000 --> 05:00.000 They have 50 movies. 05:00.000 --> 05:03.000 You can compile your own playlists. 05:03.000 --> 05:07.000 And it's, I guess it's a streaming type of service. 05:07.000 --> 05:11.000 And they started off the flight by saying, if you're, you know, 05:11.000 --> 05:15.000 if you're, if you're in flight entertainment system, 05:15.000 --> 05:18.000 should become garbled or confused. 05:18.000 --> 05:20.000 Just let one of the flight attendants know. 05:20.000 --> 05:23.000 We'll reset your entertainment system. 05:23.000 --> 05:26.000 It will take you 20 minutes before you can watch again. 05:26.000 --> 05:28.000 But at least then you can watch. 05:28.000 --> 05:29.000 So it was something like that. 05:29.000 --> 05:32.000 You're some vague announcement I was like, wow, that doesn't sound very good. 05:32.000 --> 05:35.000 So first of all, I had seat 19D. 05:35.000 --> 05:40.000 And for some reason, I sat down in 19C and I was already pretty much established. 05:40.000 --> 05:43.000 It already made acquaintance with, with the guy sitting next to me. 05:43.000 --> 05:46.000 I was like to have an aisle seat. 05:46.000 --> 05:50.000 And then some other passenger came up and who, of course, had 19D. 05:50.000 --> 05:54.000 Oh, 19C and, I said, well, you know, he said, I don't worry about it. 05:54.000 --> 05:55.000 You're sitting there. I'll just sit on this side. 05:55.000 --> 05:57.000 It's also an aisle seat. No problem. 05:57.000 --> 06:01.000 Well, I wish I had, had gotten my original seat because, of course, 06:01.000 --> 06:04.000 my in flight entertainment system fucked up. 06:04.000 --> 06:06.000 And the reason why, because here it was, 06:06.000 --> 06:09.000 I was completely jazzed because I could watch the aviator, 06:09.000 --> 06:11.000 a movie that I've been wanting to watch for a long time. 06:11.000 --> 06:14.000 Big fan of what Howard Hughes has done in aviation. 06:14.000 --> 06:19.000 And I was about an hour into it and my guy next to me, my seatmate, 06:19.000 --> 06:21.000 needed to go to the restroom. 06:21.000 --> 06:23.000 So, of course, that means that me being in the aisle, 06:23.000 --> 06:26.000 I have to get out stand up. 06:26.000 --> 06:28.000 And when I sat back down, I sat down on the controller 06:28.000 --> 06:32.000 and then the movie started to rewind and I fast forward it. 06:32.000 --> 06:36.000 And then, yep, it started to hose out, which means, 06:36.000 --> 06:39.000 I guess it's streaming. 06:39.000 --> 06:42.000 They must have some kind of streaming server on board. 06:42.000 --> 06:45.000 And it got all, you know, you got all the digital blocking 06:45.000 --> 06:48.000 and the static and it was unwatchable. 06:48.000 --> 06:50.000 So, I rang my call button and they said, oh, yeah, 06:50.000 --> 06:52.000 it's time for you to be reset, sir. 06:52.000 --> 06:56.000 It's like something they clearly have done more than once. 06:56.000 --> 06:58.000 And check this out. 06:58.000 --> 07:00.000 So, I actually heard this on the announcement. 07:00.000 --> 07:03.000 When we reset it, you'll see a penguin followed by computer code. 07:03.000 --> 07:05.000 And I knew it was coming because they reset it 07:05.000 --> 07:07.000 and lo and behold, Linux, right? 07:07.000 --> 07:09.000 Linux is running this thing. 07:09.000 --> 07:10.000 And I wasn't fast enough. 07:10.000 --> 07:12.000 I grabbed my, you know, try to get my camera, 07:12.000 --> 07:15.000 but before I knew what the boot screen had already passed by, 07:15.000 --> 07:18.000 it had like, what was the command that it starts up air seat 07:18.000 --> 07:20.000 or something like that? 07:20.000 --> 07:23.000 Needless to say, it never really worked again. 07:23.000 --> 07:24.000 I had them reset it again. 07:24.000 --> 07:27.000 It was a total of like an hour of waiting for this thing to reboot. 07:27.000 --> 07:29.000 And it just, it didn't come back. 07:29.000 --> 07:32.000 And everyone else's entertainment system was working fine. 07:32.000 --> 07:34.000 So, when I go back on Saturday, 07:34.000 --> 07:37.000 I hope to catch the second half or the second two-thirds, 07:37.000 --> 07:41.000 the remaining two-thirds of the aviator. 07:41.000 --> 07:43.000 So, that was a major bummer, of course. 07:43.000 --> 07:47.000 I did have a chance to catch up on a whole bunch of podcasts. 07:47.000 --> 07:50.000 I want to make a special mention of Michael Butler, 07:50.000 --> 07:51.000 a general geek show. 07:51.000 --> 07:56.000 He did a sound seeing tour of a strip joint in San Francisco, 07:56.000 --> 07:58.000 which was just phenomenal. 07:58.000 --> 08:00.000 It was really funny, Mike. 08:00.000 --> 08:01.000 I really enjoyed that one. 08:01.000 --> 08:03.000 I'm on the headset, by the way. 08:03.000 --> 08:05.000 I'm using the cast blaster. 08:05.000 --> 08:07.000 This is up to beta number five. 08:07.000 --> 08:09.000 After this week, when I get back, 08:09.000 --> 08:14.000 we'll be opening up a small beta amongst, 08:14.000 --> 08:18.000 I think we're going to go for no more than 15 or 20 people. 08:18.000 --> 08:21.000 And I'm going to be selecting a few. 08:21.000 --> 08:23.000 Mike, the developer, I'm working with. 08:23.000 --> 08:24.000 We'll be selecting a few. 08:24.000 --> 08:27.000 So, we can really, you know, just flesh out some stuff before, 08:27.000 --> 08:30.000 before we take this prime time, or at least prime time beta. 08:30.000 --> 08:34.000 So, if the sound is not exactly what you are used to hearing, 08:34.000 --> 08:37.000 it's because I'm on the outtick, lancing headset. 08:37.000 --> 08:39.000 Because it is, you know, almost midnight, 08:39.000 --> 08:42.000 and feel like setting up the wireless microphone and all that. 08:42.000 --> 08:44.000 And that's what's kind of cool about the cast blaster. 08:44.000 --> 08:47.000 You can just, you know, it already has all of my, 08:47.000 --> 08:50.000 the openers and my jingles, and of course, my important effects. 08:50.000 --> 08:54.000 Like like that is already, it's already pre-loaded. 08:54.000 --> 08:57.000 And all I have to do is just put in the stuff that I want to play 08:57.000 --> 08:59.000 on the particular show. 08:59.000 --> 09:03.000 So, I'm in my hotel room here at the Waldorf Astoria, 09:03.000 --> 09:05.000 which is owned by the Hilton family. 09:05.000 --> 09:10.000 In fact, I think Paris has a full-time residence here 09:10.000 --> 09:14.000 with her family, although she may not be here all the time. 09:14.000 --> 09:17.000 I'll be out in California. 09:17.000 --> 09:20.000 Although today was a beautiful day in New York. 09:20.000 --> 09:23.000 We got in to the, I'd never been to the new terminal for, 09:23.000 --> 09:26.000 or ever, you know, it's been new, I guess, for the past three years, 09:26.000 --> 09:28.000 three years ago when they reopened it. 09:28.000 --> 09:32.000 Sun was shining, it was, you know, 75 degrees. 09:32.000 --> 09:34.000 It was just, there was no traffic on the road. 09:34.000 --> 09:36.000 It was absolutely wonderful. 09:36.000 --> 09:40.000 The city, everyone was having lunch outside by the time I got in. 09:40.000 --> 09:42.000 I couldn't check into the room, of course. 09:42.000 --> 09:43.000 Check out time is 12. 09:43.000 --> 09:45.000 Check in time is 3 p.m. 09:45.000 --> 09:48.000 I was in the hotel around 115. 09:48.000 --> 09:51.000 So, of course, I dropped my bag off. 09:51.000 --> 09:54.000 Went out down the corner and immediately got me a big, 09:54.000 --> 09:58.000 a jumbo, a hot dog with sour crowd, and catch up, 09:58.000 --> 10:01.000 and mustard, and a snap-alice tea, and sat down 10:01.000 --> 10:06.000 in the steps of, what's the building that's next door here?

21:15.000 --> 21:31.000 Why didn't you know, can't they pin that shit down to her head? Why does she always have to hold on to it with that trembling left hand, you know, it's like, either you wear the hat and have it bolted down so it sits right or you know, don't wear it, it's just anyway. 21:31.000 --> 21:35.000 Oh, I got some great promos, check this one out, this is a great podcast. 21:47.000 --> 21:57.000 She was blonde, she was beautiful.

If there is such a thing, digital platform. 23:22.000 --> 23:29.000 Every time I do a show, the wife says, oh, that was nice. You should talk more. 23:29.000 --> 23:34.000 You're so good at that. I love when you talk. Why don't you talk? 23:34.000 --> 23:38.000 Well, about a week ago, Adam Curry, the pod father. 23:38.000 --> 23:39.000 Oh, wait. 23:39.000 --> 23:41.000 It says to me, hold on a second. 23:41.000 --> 23:48.000 When you say the pod father got a little boy in a unrelated context, you should listen to your wife. 23:48.000 --> 23:50.000 They're always right. 23:50.000 --> 23:56.000 So you're all in for it. For this week, it's the wife's edition. 23:56.000 --> 24:02.000 Lots of me talking. Longer show, maybe.

On the wing is the podcast magazine of birds and birding. 24:43.000 --> 24:48.000 We'll cover the people, places, and creatures that make birding one of the fastest growing hobbies in the world. 24:48.000 --> 24:51.000 Everybody's after looking at how he's trying to get out of dodge. 24:51.000 --> 24:52.000 Oh, look at that. 24:53.000 --> 24:57.000 You got the idea, right? 24:57.000 --> 24:58.000 It's really intimate. 24:58.000 --> 24:59.000 It's left and right. 24:59.000 --> 25:03.000 And it really trips with your brain when you're listening to that on the, uh, your buds. 25:03.000 --> 25:07.000 The April edition of On the Wing is available at on the wing.lipsin.com. 25:07.000 --> 25:10.000 That's on the wing dot libsyn.com. 25:10.000 --> 25:12.000 Those lipsing guys are doing okay. 25:12.000 --> 25:16.000 It seems to be a pretty simple service that's working quite well. 25:16.000 --> 25:18.000 And people are very happy with it. 25:18.000 --> 25:23.000 And in the past, I've mistakenly said, I've mistakenly talked about their pricing. 25:23.000 --> 25:27.000 But it really is not based on bandwidth, but it's based on storage. 25:27.000 --> 25:29.000 And it's got a very interesting model. 25:29.000 --> 25:34.000 I don't know if they're making any money on it, but I do see a lot of podcasts coming through the directory. 25:34.000 --> 25:40.000 By the way, the directory, we're now up to over 4,800 podcasts actively tracked. 25:40.000 --> 25:46.000 A couple new categories have come online as well, which include what we have bicycles. 25:47.000 --> 25:51.000 Also, Madge Weinstein is not doing the gain lesbian node. 25:51.000 --> 25:54.000 There's a category there of podcasts. 25:54.000 --> 25:57.000 Just all kinds of stuff happening. 25:57.000 --> 26:01.000 And of course, you may be wondering what I'm doing in New York here to meet up with a couple of, 26:01.000 --> 26:08.000 the pod show technical partners that we've entered into agreements with. 26:08.000 --> 26:13.000 We are closing a couple of big advertising deals, which are very excited about. 26:13.000 --> 26:25.000 And it looks like the first week of May is when we're really going to start unveiling a lot of the talent that we've made investments in. 26:25.000 --> 26:27.000 Excuse me. 26:27.000 --> 26:30.000 As Madge would say, I'm so bloated. 26:30.000 --> 26:32.000 I'm sorry. 26:32.000 --> 26:36.000 I just got to tell you a little story, a little sidebar here. 26:36.000 --> 26:43.000 You know, Madge Weinstein's got usually has a theme song. 26:43.000 --> 26:47.000 And people just keep sending her fantastic new self-written theme songs. 26:47.000 --> 26:50.000 It really hits home about how cool all this podcasting is. 26:50.000 --> 26:53.000 The interaction you can have with your listeners. 26:53.000 --> 26:56.000 And we were at the dinner table Patricia Christina and I. 26:56.000 --> 27:01.000 And I was mentioning some of the songs and Christina loves it. 27:01.000 --> 27:04.000 She loves talking about being bloated and yeast. 27:05.000 --> 27:09.000 Hey, she's a 14. I'm sorry. She's 14.7. She would point out to you. 27:09.000 --> 27:12.000 And we came up with a couple of songs. 27:12.000 --> 27:18.000 And we were actually going to record one of these Patricia's sister Ivana's coming over in two weeks time. 27:18.000 --> 27:25.000 And together, well, if you had heard any of the stars on 45 stuff for the star sister stuff that Patricia Ivana've done together, 27:25.000 --> 27:28.000 their voices fits so beautifully. They do great harmonies. 27:28.000 --> 27:33.000 So I think we're going to record if you're bloated and you know what clap your hands. 27:33.000 --> 27:36.000 We also came up with what was the other one. 27:36.000 --> 27:41.000 Do you remember the the floaters bloated on? 27:41.000 --> 27:44.000 And there was a Christina came up with a fabulous. 27:44.000 --> 27:48.000 Oh, was that pilot? 27:48.000 --> 27:52.000 Oh, oh, oh, she's bloated. 27:52.000 --> 27:59.000 You're listening to yeast radio. 28:00.000 --> 28:05.000 You can tell who's the singer in the curry family and you can definitely tell who isn't the singer. 28:05.000 --> 28:19.000 So anyway, doing some some meetings and I hopefully I'll be flying back Saturday back to the UK just in time to do some more intense flight training. 28:19.000 --> 28:24.000 I spoke to the wing commander and we're going to try and combine a couple things next week. 28:24.000 --> 28:27.000 When I was in Iraq last February. 28:27.000 --> 28:32.000 So that was February at 2004 with the Dutch Marines. 28:32.000 --> 28:36.000 We did live broadcast with there for 10 days. 28:36.000 --> 28:40.000 If you just look at him curry and Iraq on on Google. 28:40.000 --> 28:44.000 If you Google that, you'll see all kinds of pictures and stuff from when we were there. 28:44.000 --> 28:47.000 It was just a life altering experience. 28:48.000 --> 28:50.000 We did is I left my transmitter. 28:50.000 --> 28:54.000 I do have a transmitter 100 watt FM transmitter. 28:54.000 --> 28:57.000 Left that there for the troops with a satellite dish. 28:57.000 --> 29:00.000 So they could listen to radio from back home. 29:00.000 --> 29:04.000 And since the Dutch Marines have now left Camp Smitty in Iraq. 29:04.000 --> 29:11.000 They are no longer in the coalition there, which was all planned and agreed to upfront. 29:11.000 --> 29:14.000 They want to give me, I think they want to give me the transmitter back. 29:14.000 --> 29:16.000 They do that next Wednesday. 29:16.000 --> 29:19.000 It was at Wednesday the 20th or whatever. 29:19.000 --> 29:22.000 And I think they're going to give it to me in then five seconds later. 29:22.000 --> 29:25.000 They're going to take it back because they basically like the idea so much. 29:25.000 --> 29:27.000 Now they want to take the transmitter to Afghanistan. 29:27.000 --> 29:32.000 So I wouldn't mind visiting them over there and actually doing some podcast. 29:32.000 --> 29:33.000 That would be very cool. 29:33.000 --> 29:35.000 And I haven't spoken to them about it. 29:35.000 --> 29:38.000 But maybe I can convince somebody. 29:42.000 --> 29:43.000 He's back everybody. 29:43.000 --> 29:45.000 It's y'all. 29:47.000 --> 29:48.000 Hi Adam. 29:48.000 --> 29:49.000 There you go. 29:49.000 --> 29:50.000 A lot is going on. 29:50.000 --> 29:53.000 Not only here with me, but you're also on the road. 29:53.000 --> 29:57.000 And I'll try to create a hit test if possible. 29:57.000 --> 30:00.000 But I think it won't be as frequent as we are used to. 30:00.000 --> 30:01.000 That's okay. 30:01.000 --> 30:06.000 But my information about what's going to happen is to be found in my own hit test podcast. 30:06.000 --> 30:11.000 And you can find it at yompolet.nl.j and p-o-l-e-t.nl. 30:11.000 --> 30:13.000 For now, there is one. 30:13.000 --> 30:15.000 So let's start right away. 30:15.000 --> 30:16.000 Rock on. 30:18.000 --> 30:19.000 Whoa. 30:23.000 --> 30:24.000 Oh, yon. 30:24.000 --> 30:25.000 Come on, that way. 30:25.000 --> 30:28.000 I'm just going to use the rewind feature here. 30:33.000 --> 30:36.000 I have no idea what that is, yon. 30:36.000 --> 30:39.000 You may do them in frequently, but they're not easier. 30:39.000 --> 30:40.000 This is number two. 30:40.000 --> 30:41.000 It's a bit longer. 30:48.000 --> 30:50.000 That's, I know what that is. 30:50.000 --> 30:53.000 That's, uh, Donald Fagan. 30:53.000 --> 30:59.000 With, uh, that international geophysical year was the album title. 30:59.000 --> 31:01.000 Bob Bada. 31:01.000 --> 31:04.000 I think it must be steely Dan or Donald Fagan. 31:04.000 --> 31:06.000 Some combination there. 31:07.000 --> 31:08.000 And the final one. 31:08.000 --> 31:09.000 Number three. 31:12.000 --> 31:14.000 Let's talk, talk. 31:14.000 --> 31:16.000 But, uh, let me listen. 31:16.000 --> 31:18.000 It's my life.

Two out of three. 33:34.000 --> 33:38.000 Um, again, I don't know what's going to happen in the coming weeks and months. 33:39.000 --> 33:40.000 We just have to wait and see. 33:40.000 --> 33:43.000 One thing it is, uh, certain almost is that, um, uh, 33:43.000 --> 33:47.000 the high prediction values of the hitest is going to drop a bit. 33:47.000 --> 33:49.000 Because I will have to be, uh, 33:49.000 --> 33:52.000 recording the hitest with a noble kind of simple headset. 33:52.000 --> 33:53.000 And not with all the external gear. 33:53.000 --> 33:55.000 I'm using here right now.

to, um, maybe I will, um, prepare the hitest, uh, 34:07.000 --> 34:10.000 doing the week and record them all in the weekends. 34:10.000 --> 34:12.000 But I'm, I don't know if I've time for that. 34:12.000 --> 34:17.000 And I, I think that, um, my wife is not going to be happy with it. 34:17.000 --> 34:20.000 Um, listen to the digital plots of podcasts. 34:20.000 --> 34:22.000 Like I said, we have to wait and see. 34:22.000 --> 34:25.000 More information about what's going on with my life and with, uh, 34:25.000 --> 34:29.000 the problems I'm having right now is, so to be found in my own hitest podcast. 34:29.000 --> 34:34.000 Uh, www.yumpolet.nl, this J&POLAT.nl. 34:34.000 --> 34:36.000 Feedback is welcome with hitest at gmail.com. 34:36.000 --> 34:38.000 And I hope to see you soon,

If you can't create it, it's not a problem at all. 34:45.000 --> 34:48.000 And I will be sending you off a, uh, cast blaster, um, 34:48.000 --> 34:51.000 beta in time so that you can, uh, 34:51.000 --> 34:52.000 uh, create, uh, the hitest. 34:52.000 --> 34:55.000 If you feel that you, if you feel up to it, um, 34:55.000 --> 34:57.000 um, and you'll be able to do that, uh, 34:57.000 --> 34:58.000 in kind of the same hokey way. 34:58.000 --> 34:59.000 I'm doing it right now. 34:59.000 --> 35:01.000 But it does seem to work. 35:01.000 --> 35:02.000 Even though, um, you know, this, 35:02.000 --> 35:04.000 and I'm promising myself. 35:04.000 --> 35:07.000 I'm going to pick up a better headset, 35:07.000 --> 35:09.000 because not only is this microphone, you know, 35:09.000 --> 35:12.000 so, so it's not, you know, not the best mic in the world. 35:12.000 --> 35:15.000 Uh, but the headphones are just really booming. 35:15.000 --> 35:17.000 It's, uh, actually when the hitest has played, 35:17.000 --> 35:20.000 I had to remove one, um, uh, one side of the headphones, 35:20.000 --> 35:23.000 just to, you know, get rid of the boomingness, man. 35:23.000 --> 35:24.000 It's just, oh, these, 35:24.000 --> 35:26.000 altic lancings, not at all what I want. 35:26.000 --> 35:28.000 So we're 35 minutes into the show. 35:28.000 --> 35:30.000 I want to play one more song for you. 35:30.000 --> 35:33.000 And this, um, is, uh, a piece of podsafe music. 35:34.000 --> 35:37.000 Um, and I just want to read you, um, 35:37.000 --> 35:40.000 this, uh, this email that came in.
