Hey, Chris, how we doing? Good. How you doing,
John? I'm tired. I was going to say I was doing
all right, but I'm tired. It's fine. It's not
a big deal. You can be tired and good. Hey, why
don't you give us the saga of the pretzels over
there? So disappointed and fresh. I mean, come
on, guys. I mean, I know it's not Walmart. Yeah,
it's not. I get a lot of people coming to Tyler
that I, you know, rave about Tyler because I
love Tyler. And they're like, man, this place
is great. You're right. Where's the H -E -B?
I was like, oh, I don't know how to tell you
this. You came to the wrong town. That's not
going to happen. And, you know, most of the time
I'm fine with Berkshires and their fancy, fresh,
whatever. But, like, every once in a while you're
like, why don't we have normal pretzels? Texas
people just like H -E -B. Yeah, a lot. Yeah,
so you go and you're like getting some beers
for the show and some pretzels would be nice
to do again. Yeah. And no. No, we're not doing
that. All I wanted was just simple rolled gold,
the little twists. That's it. Mm -hmm. No. No,
no. Cheddar. Instead. Garlic parmesan. That's
it. Not even the sticks. I would have accepted
the sticks. Instead, I ended up with garlic parmesan,
and that's okay. Okay, I got to... It's very
much like the one that we were talking about
before we started. Dots. The dots. They look
like dots. They kind of taste like dots, too.
Yeah, they're like totally... That is a lot of
garlic parmesan. We are going to be keeping the
vampires away, baby. I don't think I'm going
to be allowed to kiss my wife here. Yikes. Yeah.
So what are we drinking? I went all dark. So
we have the Founders. I guess this is about as
light as it's going to get, the PM Porter. That's
as light as it's going to get. But then we have
four of the Breakfast Out. What I actually started
off with is I was looking at just the Breakfast
Out, and it's like, okay, so you'll give me four
for $10. And then I go look at the make, pick
your, your six and the breakfast out is there.
I'm like, Oh, so I can just pick six of those
and get six for 10 or I can buy just the breakfast
out and have four for 10. Okay. I'll take all
six. That seems like a no brainer, but there
was only four on the shelf and it was like, okay,
I'll finish it off with the porter. Fine. So,
Well, there you go. I know we've had breakfast
out on the show, and I'm pretty confident we've
had Porter on the show, so I don't think we're
introducing anything new. I don't think so either,
but you should still read the blurb. The breakfast
out says, coffee lovers, this one's for you.
Brewed with an abundance of, oh, flaked oats
and two types of coffee and chocolate. Really?
This stout. has an intense fresh roasted java
java nose with i promise it's good breakfast
inspired flavors of chocolate and caramelized
sugar for just the right amount of sweetness
sorry these letters are all capitalized and they're
really tall but really skinny i'm having a hard
time reading it no i like i've had this before
i know that i like it it's just um that was really
hard to read Well, I'm not going to try to read
off the bottle for the same thing. They're making
me feel like I have old man eyes again. I mean,
we kind of do. I pulled it up off the website.
Oh, look at you. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So the
Founders PM Porter. Robust and silky smooth.
Sure. Yep. Pouring silky black with a creamy
tan head, Porter gives off mild aromas of roasted
coffee and dark chocolate, complemented by low
bitterness in a medium body. The nose is sweet
with strong chocolate and a caramel malt presence
creating a graham cracker sweetness that needs
to be tasted to be believed. I feel like we like
chocolate. I like chocolate, but not typically
the dark chocolate. No, me neither. You give
me milk chocolate all day. All day long. Come
on with the Reese's. I'm like, why are we trying
to? No, it's milk chocolate. Yeah. With peanut
butter. Correct. And I'm in. And we're done.
Yeah. Yep. So there you go. Why do they keep
trying to make different things? People just
try to be creative. I guess so. Once you get
the right combination, just stop. Kind of like
Dr. Pepper. Yeah. No. Those 23 flavors, man.
Stop. No cherry. No Dr. Thunder. No coconut.
No. No nothing. Stop trying to make it zero calorie.
Yeah. Don't do it. If you're having a problem,
just drink less. Stop messing with me. Just lean
in and drink, man. Just lean in. It's non -alcoholic.
Yeah. May turn you into a diabetic. Maybe. But
just lean in. So, I am going. Diabetes is just
weakness leaving your body. I don't think my
wife would agree with that. Yeah, sorry about
that. I feel like I just offended a lot of people.
Well. Yeah, we need to open these. Did you bring...
There it is. Yep, go ahead. Thanks, man. That's
a good one. Mm -hmm. Now we get the goat milk.
Mm -hmm. Boom. Oh, that is so dark. I mean, even
the head is dark. That's crazy. Yeah. Here we
go. I'm just... We're really good at this ASMR
thing. Is it ASMR? ASMR, yeah. Anyway. Gosh.
Hey, cheers. I'm sorry. I had to take in a deep
breath. It's good. It's good. Cheers. So you're...
Wait, you're drinking the porter. No, this is...
You did the breakfast out too? Breakfast out.
Okay, so we're both doing the breakfast out.
I'm actually probably about to pour the second
one in. Okay. Let that head go down a little
bit. I'm going to do this one and then I'm going
to do the other one. I'll drink the porter at
home. Okay. For the trifecta. There you go. All
right, cheers. Bless it. Mm -hmm. That is good.
That is good. Not too shabby. Yeah. So glad I
ran into that one on the trip to Georgia. Oh.
Don't worry. We've got a battery backup. Okay.
And we're not doing live. No, we're not. Well.
Would you like to hear some of the debacle of
Ive? Yes, I would love to hear what was going
on because I got text messages from you. I was
trying to follow, but I'm going to admit it was
a little bit hard to know exactly what you were
talking about. Technically, it worked. Okay.
But only if you use Podcast Addict. Interesting.
I have been very frustrated with RSS .com support.
Okay. Their first answer was... Figure it out.
And it's like, no, no, no, hold up. I'm an actual
paying customer. Yeah. I'm not on a free service
here and expecting you to help me. Yeah. Like
we, we pay, excuse me. We very rarely ask you
for anything. Yeah. And we're going to ask right
now. So let's figure this out. And so eventually
they're like, okay, send us your configurations.
And so I send it to him and I haven't heard a
thing. Really? Nothing. I showed them all my
config for Icecast. I showed them my config for
Butt, B -U -T -T, broadcast using this tool.
So get your minds out of the gutter. Wow. No,
they just went there. They went there. Again,
they leaned in and went for it. So I had those
working and then was trying to do. The live configuration
in rss .com. Oh, we still got the Cheez -Its.
I was testing them to see. They're just a little
bit stale. They're not like fully stale. It still
eats. It really does. Man, we've got a smorgasbord
here tonight. So, but trying to get it set up.
Okay, it's a little more stale than I wanted
to get it for. Okay. So, showed them my configuration
within rss .com. So, I've just been plugging
away at it, plugging away at it, plugging away
at it. And eventually got it to where from the
laptop in front of me running Icecast and Butt,
I was able to get a live stream out to Podcast
Addict. Okay. Now the notifications hit other
podcast apps of, hey, we're live. I was seeing
that in Fountain and I was seeing that in Guru.
But when I would click onto those, it was timing
out and would never connect. And so what I think
is happening there, and I haven't heard back
from those developers yet because I emailed them,
I think they want an actual signed certificate
because Icecast does not offer a signed certificate.
It's just HTTP. And I believe, for whatever reason,
Podcast Attic is like, yeah, okay, I'll take
this. Just go. It's a stream. So I was able to
do it and talk about a 15 to 20 second delay.
it's like okay that's fine it's got to get through
it's got a buffer and it's got to get out to
where it's going and so i was literally talking
to myself going like i okay i have some type
of live going and just kind of said a couple
times hey if anybody's hearing this send me an
email i'll know you're hearing it yeah no emails
none so um so anyways it was like okay i think
it's a certificate issue let's try to figure
that out And then that's when I got to looking
at what I would need to do. And it's like, okay,
throwing Windows out and grabbed a little Dell,
put Linux Mint on it to discover that all of
the Linux -based instructions are based on Ubuntu.
Linux Mint is a derivative of Ubuntu, but apparently
not close enough. Interesting. So I got into
it, and then it was just all kinds of... bad
and you're getting errors that are nondescript
and then you go do a google search and there's
no hits on the error chris you you went like
full geek oh i'm not done yet oh there's still
more the nerd is like but wait there's strong
with this one that's a lot this is the nerd nom
yeah cranking it up it is fully turned so it's
like okay i'll buy i'll download ubuntu i got
ubuntu on I got IceCast on, was running butt
off of here. Yeah, I know. But that worked. Again,
only to Podcast Addict. Only to Podcast Addict.
Only to Podcast Addict. It's like, okay, so now
what do I need to do for certificates? And then
I start going down the rabbit hole of NGINX.
I don't know if you've ever heard of that or
not. Basically, it's a web server that I would
give the certificate, and then it would reverse
proxy to IceCast. on its port with no certificate
necessary. Oh my gosh. Yeah. So running down
that, um, Hey, this website's not doing it right.
So I'm going to kind of, I'm going to put a website
in the middle, man in the middle. Uh, so got
that working internally, but still couldn't get
anything out. And so I started doing some tweaking
and then finally, Tried it again, and then now
it stopped working with Podcast Addict, and instead
it's throwing me in an error of can't connect
to 127 .0 .0 .1. I'm like, where are you trying
to hit a loopback? Yeah, why are we? Nothing
in my configuration says anything about a loopback.
So at that point, I'm just like, okay, I'm stopping
for the moment. Got to come back to this one.
Yeah, so what I'm ultimately realizing is I wish
I had another IP address. Because I need to,
in order to get the certificate going with CertBot
to do the free let's encrypt certificates, you
need to have port 80 open. I'm like, well, I
could technically redirect all of port 80 to
this computer, but that's going to break some
stuff. Because now everything port 80 coming
in is going over there, and I don't need that.
So I wish I had a second IP, and I could expressly
point that IP. to Nginx to get what I need. So
I've got to figure out what I'm going to do there.
And then all the instructions that I was using
were based off of Ubuntu server. So I'm going
to try one more time. I'm going to download Ubuntu
server. I'm going to start all over again and
see where this ends up. You know, Unify makes
a little wireless antenna. Not wireless antenna.
What am I trying to say? You're thinking cellular?
Yeah, cellular antenna. Yeah. You could run a
different IP off of that. Yeah, and what I would
have to do, which I was already trying to do.
Oh, that's one thing I forgot. Even geekier.
So since you have a home connection. I love that
you just did a fist pump. So when you have a
home connection, you don't have a static address.
No, you don't. And you never know when it's going
to change. No. Power outage is a high probability,
but you never know. So you go do, you set up
dynamic DNS. That's the best you got. And with
Unify, you can go into your UDM and you could
link it up to a whole bunch of different dynamic
DNS. So I do that. The Linux device translates
DNS properly. Every single Windows PC I've tried
it on. does not translate the DNS properly, and
I'm getting some 38 dot whatever address. So
I ran down that rabbit hole for so long that
I was almost bald. Have you tried it on a Mac?
I haven't tried it on a Mac, but I know what
it does on Linux. But what's crazy is I went
to a PC off my network. Yeah. When it worked,
the same 38 address. And I'm like, what in the
world is going on? Yeah, guys. This does not
make sense. There's something defaulting there
that doesn't seem... Correct. So where this gets
geeky is with... Hold on. We're getting there.
I really need you all to know, I understand that
when he just said that, you were like, we've
passed that point. I get that. We're just barely
getting into Chris's geekiness. We're getting
towards the end here. So what you can do on Linux
is... You can essentially do a type of dynamic
DNS, but you've got to go to GoDaddy, because
that's who we use for our DNS registration. Okay.
Set up an API key. Okay. And then come back and
run a script on Linux that monitors your public
IP, and when there's a change, uses all that
API configuration to write it to GoDaddy. Wow.
Yeah. I got all kind of excited on that. Where
did you find that? Just running down the rabbit
holes of Google search. Oh, my gosh. So I'm excited
about that. That seems to be working just fine.
Do that, AI. That's what I want to. Yeah. So
if you go to or if you try to ping live .beer
-in -gear .com. You should get the IP address
of my home connection. Give me a second. And
so when I'm setting up the live, I'm actually
using that DNS name. Which made me all kinds
of giddy as well. It's like we're actually starting
to use some of the DNS that we're paying for.
Or the domain registration that we're paying
for. Did I tell you that I basically... Excuse
me. I basically always type bear in gear. Bear
in gear? My fingers are moving slower than my
brain. Yeah. So, like, my brain is already on
gear when I'm trying to finish beer. Well, maybe,
yeah, I guess I just have to buy a whole new
Delane. No. You said live .beer in gear, like
hyphen. Yeah, beer. hyphen in hyphen gear dot
com and you should get like 47 dot something
47 223 .49 .201 that sounds about right so that's
the ip of my place at home so i mean it's timing
out but correct because there's nothing on right
now so i've got it working that way 100 % packet
loss, Chris. That's okay. 100 % packet loss.
Because all the servers are turned off. What
are we even doing? It says live, man. Well, it's
dead right now. Okay. It's dead. It's dead, Jim.
Dead to me. That's awesome. And so nerdy. So
there's the story of live to this moment. So,
so nerdy. But I'm going to make it work one way
or another. Well, sure. Wow. That was loud. i
don't know you need a mute button there's a lot
of i really do i have it over here i should have
hit it because that would have been the kind
thing to do for all of you um yeah we got a lot
of humidity right now in east texas and like
massive humidity like like it started raining
out there and i don't think it's actually coming
from the clouds i think it's actually just forming
around us um yes we're in the midst of it right
now um but it like I don't know if there's like
all kinds of molds or something in the air, but
I'm dealing with, I'm dealing with some stuff
in my nasal passages. I'm going in. Did you already
finish the other one or you just, I'm just adding
up. Okay. Cause I was about to say, I'm not quite
there, but I had not been, I had not. Um, so
that again, that's the story of life. More to
come. It will work. I'm going to get there. It's
a continuing saga of how to do this the... The
fun way. The fun way. I don't, I mean, I say
the nerdy way, but like... What's nerdy to? It's
the... Oh, gosh. Like that, it's really getting
close. No, you did it. Yeah. Perfect. That deserves
a picture. Hold on. I'm an expert. My lens just
fogged up. This is terrible. Oh, yeah. We need
to not forget a photo. We do need to get a photo.
Maybe not using that lens because holy cow, that
looks so hazy. I'm sending that to you because
I think you should have it. Yeah, that is a full
mug right there. Yeah, it is. We were going to
talk about security. Yes, and you wanted to talk
about Cloudflare. Yeah, so I read an article.
I saw a post and then read an article and sent
it to you. I don't think it struck me as disturbing.
It struck me as like, are you kidding? That's
the solution. But I'm having to scroll so far
back now that it's not even available anymore.
I'm going to have to look it up. So Cloudflare.
How do I, I mean, how do you even start this?
So in, in the, in the like world of security,
we, we've all heard about, talked about, know
about, you know, you've got encryptions. Encryptions
have to have keys in order to decrypt them. Yep.
Encrypt and decrypt. This, this makes anybody
who's seen like a spy movie, I think understands
or just not even that. If you've seen, oh my
gosh. Sneakers? Well, sneakers, obviously. But
I was thinking more. Showing my age. I was thinking
even further back than that. Okay. The Christmas
story. When he's got little Annie, orphan Annie's.
Little orphan Annie, yeah. Thing. And so he reads
the letters and you got to use the decoder ring
to like figure out the message using the, but
you need the decoder ring. Yeah. So that's the
decryption key in order to be able to decode
the message. And this is happening all the time.
Buy more Ovaltine. Buy more Ovaltine. Are you
kidding me? Throws it in the trash. Yep. That
was a good scene. We've all been there, kid.
So there was a lot of, or there's a lot of, like
these encryption keys have to be like pretty
secure. But even, you know, most of the decryption
keys are being created by algorithms that are
changing. But still based on a predictable pattern.
I understand predictable is kind of a terrible
way to say that. Loose term. Loose term. Not
predictable in the sense that we can do this.
But if you can run down some pieces of the decryption
algorithm, then you can figure this out. All
that to say. Cloudflare evidently has a wall
in California in a physical location. Bless you.
Wow. Has a wall in a physical location of lava
lamps. And it is using the movement of the lava
lamps to create the encryption key. Yep. And
if you go look at it, even you being in the room
and having your shadow on the wall or your, you
know, whatever movement that it picks up, that
can change the decryption key. So they're like,
yeah, come look at it. And I'm like, I don't
know that this is something I want to be advertising.
Correct. Because how sure, anyway, I mean, we
live in a world that now has meta Ray -Bans.
Yeah. I just, you know, like there's part of
that that I'm like, I don't, I don't, like if
you've got a great way of doing this, just, just
don't like security by obscurity, man. You don't
have to put it out there. Don't tell people that.
And I just went the easy way. They open it up
for you to go in and see. Just go smash them.
Smash the lava lamps and you're not encrypting
anything. Seems like maybe the encryption is
over now. Yeah. Yikes. Yeah. I mean, that's intense.
Anyway, the zeros and ones, they're not zeroing
and one -ing. The math ain't mathing. Nope, not
when the lamps are gone. So, you know, it brings
up the question, like, you know, I think a lot
of people, this is, I guess, where I want to
maybe center the talk, and then if it flies off
in one direction or another, then that's great.
But at least we can start it. with a lot of people
are like i don't need to be secure because nobody
wants my stuff i'm not important i'm not important
and nobody wants my stuff and like we've all
had the like talk about leaving your social security
card out or whatever the thing is birth certificate
not not telling people your social security number
not reading your credit card number oof in public
or, you know, I don't know. Like, I feel like
there's a bunch of different levels of people
have been trained on not to do certain things,
but it like, I don't think everyone realizes
how much of their life is online now. Yeah. And
so like the idea that you have things that can't
be figured out, I'm going to tell you. The security
questions. I figured out some stuff pretty easily
on Facebook searches. Yeah. And that's why I
laugh when they. Not that I'm trying to steal
anything. You know, when you sign up for something
and they're like, oh, give us the answers to
these security questions. There's nothing secure
about those questions because most of the stuff
that they're asking you is public knowledge.
Yeah. If you know just a little bit about the
person, it's not hard to get. The answers. The
street that they grew up on. Yeah. What city
were you born in? What city did you meet your
spouse in? You've only lived in one city your
entire life. What was your childhood nickname?
Oh, man. None of these things are hard to find
answers on. So maybe don't answer them with the
actual answer. Give them bogus answers, but you
need to remember your bogus answers. Right. And
I would say like, that's probably good enough
to have some, like everybody's like, no, I only
use one password. Don't, if you're using one
password, the app, that's great. Yes. But if
you're only using one singular password for all
of your stuff, don't do that. Yeah. But I feel
like if you're doing these security questions,
maybe that's probably fine. If that's like off
the wall enough where you don't have to. We remember.
You say stop it. And I hear Bob Newhart. Stop
it. Oh my gosh. Stop it. No, we don't go there.
We don't go there. We definitely don't go there.
I wash my hands a lot. That's perfectly normal.
A lot of germs out there. Yes. If you don't know
what we're talking about, you need to just YouTube
search Bob Newhart. Stop it. Yes. Worth it. Absolutely.
That was hilarious. Yes, it was. I don't like
this. I don't like it. Would you like to move
on to phase two? Yes. I believe that was mad
TV. I, yeah, sure. And I didn't, I couldn't remember
which one of the old late night ones it was.
Yeah. Mad TV would make sense. Cause that was
a Stewart's mom. If you remember the Stewart.
Yeah. Look what I can do. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Anyway.
Stop it or I'll bury you alive in a box. Anyway.
Yeah, so bottom line, security is for everyone.
It doesn't matter who you are. It doesn't matter
what we're talking about, personal work. Everyone
is responsible for security. And they make it
so easy now, to be honest with you, to be just
a little more secure. I mean, I don't know most
of the password apps that are out there. They
have like, hey, you need to know about these
passwords that you have that are being reused
or that have shown up on the dark web. They're
searching for that stuff for you. You just have
to redo them or cancel those accounts. You know
what I mean? You have so many accounts that you
signed in for one thing. You purchased one thing
one time and you don't need it again. Just get
rid of it. Anyway, start with the ones you use
on a regular basis and get those switched over
because that's not helpful. I understand people
saying that MFA can be inconvenient or out of
band getting a six -digit code sent to your phone
via text or whatever. I don't want to have to
do all that. I get it. There are times that that
just gets absolutely annoying. But unfortunately,
it's necessary. Yeah, and I would say it's bitten
me a few times where I've been like, oh, your
stuff's not working. The way that you're doing
this multi -factor authentication is not working.
You have messed this up. I don't have that phone
anymore. I don't have that. app anymore i don't
have whatever the thing is that you're like asking
me for i don't even remember how i did that the
first time correct and you're asking me for it
and you have no way of me getting it back like
i get how annoying that is yep you gotta figure
it out because it's that's how quickly all of
your stuff is gone and to be honest with you
most of your stuff's probably already gone yeah
I think people need to realize how valuable their
data actually is. That's a good point. How often
do you just click through the EULA and don't
read it? Or you tell whatever app or website
or device that you're using, yeah, it's okay
if you tell everybody what I'm doing. It phrases
it in such an innocuous way. Like, hey, you're
going to help us problem solve glitches. And
you're like, I want to be helpful to people that
are trying to solve problems. That's not what
they're asking for. Nope. No, people like Google,
your social media companies, they're making money
hand over fist with your data. You are the product.
Yeah, you are absolutely the product. If it's
free, you're the product. Bottom line. Can you
break that down a little bit further for our
unindoctrinated? You should pay for everything
that you do. Don't get it free. I get the convenience
of free, but just don't do it. You should be
paying because when you pay, there is a certain
level of expectation on, I am not just your data.
You are not going to be leveraging me for more
money or for whatever you're going to do. Your
data, if they're going to use it, they should
be paying you. Because they're making money off
of you, period, in your discussion, whether it's
your Google searches, it's your websites that
you go to, engagements that you, as they call
it, the things that you click on when you're
in social media. Whatever it is, everything that
you're doing online, it's being tracked and recorded
in some way or another. And if you're using Google
Chrome, it's all being tracked. That incognito
option. That doesn't keep you from being tracked.
No, no, no, no, no, no. At best. At best. Maybe
it keeps your spouse from knowing what you did.
Yeah. And let me tell you. And if you're at that
level, you should stop. Shame on you. Yes. Don't
even go down that road. Where's the. No, I got
to find the. Oh, this can still be seen by your
service provider. I mean, how many people are
actually looking at that new incognito window?
It says. Others who use this device won't see
your activity. Correct. You are hiding from your
wife is what that says. Yep. Okay. So you can
browse more privately. So your wife won't. Okay.
I've translated it now. This won't change how
data is collected by websites you visit and the
service they use, including Google. Yep. I mean,
they have to say that. And you're just not reading
it because all you care about is that you're
hiding from your spouse, whatever. Yep. And let
me, I mean, I'll just caveat that. If you are
trying to surprise someone with a nice gift and
you don't want them to be able to see that in
your search history, blessings on you and all
of your household. Fair. But we also know the
depravity of man. Live in it. Right here, folks.
Downloads, bookmarks, and reading list items
will be saved. Yep. Chrome won't save your browsing
history, cookies, and site data information entered
in forms. See, cookies and site data makes it
sound so like, oh, they're not keeping anything.
Yeah, they are. Activity might still be visible
to websites you visit. Yep. Employer or school,
it's not doing anything with your. firewall or
your internet service provider. How many of y
'all have thought about the fact that your internet
service provider has all of your history, all
of it. And so does the NSA. So just, I was trying
to explain this to my kids in a way that's not
scary, but like when, when we talked about devices
and having devices, I mean, every, every child
wants a phone. they see their parents on phones
they see everybody else on phones they want phones
why do i not have a phone my kids still don't
have a phone but when we were talking about it
we were trying to like explain how you think
that because you're having a private message
with someone on your phone yep that that is a
private message yep and i'm here to tell you
that that is not a private message that's more
like Making making sure that. Another person
in a crowded room can hear you talking. Yep.
I want to make sure that Chris can hear me talking.
So I am sending this message to Chris. But there
is by no means an understanding of privacy in
that anymore. Yep. Like I feel like everybody.
It seems so private. Yep. And it seems like I'm
sending a text message to my wife. So everything
we say is, should be between the two of us. Not
how it works, folks. Nope. And that's like, I
mean, that's not a, I don't, I don't know. I
feel like you're going to get some sort of weird.
I'm going to get some sort of like conspiracy
theory. Like. label because of that that's not
like that's not even hidden information no that's
that's just the way that it is yeah and i would
say that you should have the same mentality even
if you're using so -called encrypted applications
like a whatsapp yeah and signal well i mean you
you should just automatically assume apple makes
it sound like they're seeing their messages are
like so like oh it's just it's totally encrypted
you're never gonna know Sorry, that's not how
this works. Nope. Nope, nope. Nope. The federal
government would not allow it to function. And
when I typically hear them complaining about
encryption, I take it the opposite. It's like
they're going to blow it up and go, oh, it's
so horrible. We can't, we can't, we can't. Just
so you go use it so they can't. Yeah. Never,
ever, ever, ever trust. Any member of the government
who says, this is secure and we can't see what
you're doing. Oh, wow. Okay. So now that's where
you start getting into the conspiracy stuff.
That feels a little bit in the next level. But
I don't trust it at all. I get it. So that's
why we've told our kids, if you're going to put
something out in the world, you need to be prepared
for everyone else to see it. Yeah. And if you
don't want everybody else to see it, don't do
it. Do it. That should be your standard. Yeah.
You want to bear this out for everyone to see
or no. Yeah. And I think like there's, there's
again, the feel like the feeling that we have,
this is, and I'm going to get a little patriotic.
Oh, this is how I, this is how I roll inside
of it. Okay. I understand your hesitation there.
Totally get it. But the fact that we can feel
this safe. about all of this information, about
all of our information, about all of the data
that we're communicating about ourselves and
the people that we love on a regular basis over
and over and over again through these things,
and we all feel really secure about it, I'm really
grateful that it can feel that way because it
hasn't been used. overtly against us. Yep. Yet.
Not yet. And so like the, there's something like
I, I get really, I don't know, grateful for the
post Christian nation that we are, you know,
at least, at least we got still got some of that.
Like there's a right way to do this and things
that we shouldn't do against our citizens. I
agree. There's, Should be protections. Because
I still believe in the Constitution. What? I
still believe it's... It's an antiquated document,
man. Is it Fourth Amendment? Talking about safety
and your personal effects and your person? The
one that most of the privacy is built off? Yeah,
it's Fourth or Fifth. I'm leaning towards Fourth.
So I believe... that your phone is a natural
extension of that fourth amendment of the u .s
constitution protects individuals this is an
ai overview so take it for what it is yeah i
need to put the disclaimer on there yes The Fourth
Amendment of the U .S. Constitution protects
individuals from unreasonable searches and seizures.
It requires law enforcement to obtain a warrant
based on probable cause supported by oath or
affirmation and particularly describing the place
to be searched and the person or things to be
seized. However, several exceptions exist where
warrants are not required, such as in cases of
consent, plain view, or exigent circumstances.
So where is it? I'll tell you what it's not,
and that's the Fifth Amendment. That's the right
to a grand jury. Yes. I really thought it was
the Fourth. Can't self -incriminate. Due process.
Just compensation when private property is taken
for public use. That, like the eminent domain
thing, has been just... It's been abused. Kicked.
We're going to go through a little history lesson
here. Yeah, we are. I have to find this. It's
going to kill me. Sixth Amendment of the U .S.
Constitution guarantees several fundamental rights
to individuals facing criminal prosecution. Yep.
You can have a speedy and public trial, the right
to a trial by an impartial jury, which, again,
is not a real thing. Right to be informed of
the accusations. That should be a real thing.
Right to confront witnesses. That's definitely
not a real thing other than I guess it is. The
right to compel witnesses to appear and the right
to legal counsel. As long as it's not. Anyway.
It's killing me. I know what's in the amendment.
Jury trial is seventh. Let's see. Excessive bail
is eighth. I don't even know that. Excessive
fines and cruel and unusual punishment. Okay,
so eighth. Eighth I've always heard referred
to as the cruel and unusual punishment amendment.
I don't think that I realized that excessive
bail was. That's an interesting, I mean, how
would you even judge that? Well, I don't know
that they honestly keep the whole bail thing
going. You know, when a person gets a ridiculously
huge bail, and it's just left standing. It's
not happening. Yeah. So, yeah, Fourth Amendment.
The right of people to be secure in their person,
houses, papers, and effects against unreasonable
searches and seizures. shall not be violated,
and no warrant shall issue but upon probable
cause, supported by oath or affirmation, in particular
describing the place to be searched and the persons
or things to be seized. So it's in the Fourth
Amendment, and the fact that the AI didn't say
it, going to go conspiracy, shows you where they
stand. Well, I mean, it kind of said it. Go back
and read it again. Protects individuals from
unreasonable search and seizure. It requires
law enforcement to obtain a warrant based on
probable cause supported by oath or affirmation,
in particular describing the place to be searched
and persons or things to be seized. This amendment
is a cornerstone of individual privacy. Rights
and limits of the government's power to intrude
on personal space and belongings. I don't remember
that last line from the first one. That wasn't
there the first time. So that's just it. The
fact that the first one did not expressly say
in your person, houses, papers, and effects.
And to me, that's where you have the natural
extension to your phone, to your computer. It's
the modern version. of what the amendment is
speaking to and i know people will go oh you're
just stretching it i'm like no it's very much
the way that you would interpret the bible yeah
you go okay who wrote it who are they talking
to and what did they mean and the limits that
are placed on the second amendment because of
the world that we live in now like it just says
right to bear arms It doesn't say what kind of
arms that you should be able to bear. Bear those
arms, man. Boom. So like, I mean, it's obvious
that we're going to make some inferences based
on what we have. And if we don't use paper anymore,
what replaced paper? Digital copy. We all just
need to stick with paper. And apparently we all
need to still use. Now you're definitely messing
with me because I am not. And we all need to
still use the post office because they don't
have the right to just search that without a
warrant. Look at you. Boom. Problem solved. Let's
go back. Okay. Hold on. Everyone go back. We
got it wrong. Turn around. Well, I mean, but
I mean, have you used the post office lately?
Oh, I didn't say it was going to get delivered.
I just said that they can't search it without
a warrant. Well, there you go. You ship it via
UPS and FedEx. You have no protections. Ninth
Amendment is the rights not explicitly listed
in the Constitution are not rights. The enumeration
in the Constitution of certain rights shall not
be construed to deny or disparage others retained
by the people. Just because it's not listed here
doesn't mean that these are the only rights that...
Correct. People have, which I, I mean, again,
I, we can, everybody can, whatever they want
about the constitution. That's legit. But the
fact that they even wrote that amendment back
then, that's what I'm saying. Already tells you
how crazy people were getting. The fact that
even then they had to say, Hey, just because
we didn't put it here, doesn't mean you don't
have it. And, and I think that that was a, like,
um, everybody who thinks that, These guys, number
one, weren't as smart as they are because they
were incredibly intelligent to be able to come
up with this. I'm not like pyramiding, you know,
the founding fathers or anything like that. I'm
saying like they were well acquainted with the
depravity of man. Yep. And not just King George.
Yep. You know? I think that they knew that King
George was a problem and that they could be a
problem as well. Oh, yeah. They probably, I mean,
not probably. If you read some of the stuff from
that time period, you'd know that they had problems
with each other. Yeah, they did. They did not
agree. No. I mean, look at Jefferson and Adams.
Yeah, goodness. They hated each other before
ultimately kind of burying the hatchet and becoming
really good friends. Yeah, I mean. But politically,
they absolutely hated each other. Yeah. You know.
It's just that everybody hated Hamilton more.
Everybody hates Hamilton. I don't. But we have
the final reserve. I don't. I don't care what
everybody says because of that freaking. Lin
-Manuel Noriega or whatever his name is. Miranda.
Miranda. Holy crap. I like my version better.
Yeah. That dude was a jerk. Anyway, not Lin -Manuel
Miranda. Hamilton. Noriega. Noriega. Also a jerk.
Anyway. Yeah, Hamilton was a piece of work. Anyway.
So we got off on that tangent. We sure did. Yeah.
I don't know really where to land from there.
You're not as secure as you think you are. No.
And you are worth securing. Listen, you are treasure.
We're going to have a little time here with Uncle
John. I'm good enough. You are good enough. I'm
smart enough. You're smart enough. And gosh darn
it. People like you. People like you. Doggone
it. Gosh, no. No, doggone it. Doggone it. People
like you. Get him, Stuart Smalley. I mean, old
TV was better. By far. Especially cartoons. Anyway.
Oh, man. Anyway. So, I mean, you can't put the...
magic smoke back in the Mac. You know what I
mean? You can't put the genie back in the bottle.
You're going to wish that you had been more secure
with your information and then you're not going
to be able to be. So just take some old grumpy
guy's advice and figure out how to use better
passwords. Just one step at a time. You're trying
to find a nicer way to say it than the Unabomber
did. Yeah, no, absolutely. Yeah, bottom line,
you should always assume there is no privacy.
Right. And you should also assume that nobody
else is taking care of your security. Yeah. That
should just be your default. Just don't kid yourself.
Don't buy the marketing hype. You got to be responsible
for you because nobody else is. And you maybe
have to be, maybe have to be, you may have to
be responsible for other people. Yes. Hide your
wife. Hide your kids. Man, everybody up in here.
Yes. Hide your kids. Hide your wife. Oh, I got
to track that down. Climbing in your windows.
All right. That's end of show clip. Yeah, right.
Got to track that one down. We have a boost.
We do have a boost from the usual suspect. Thank
you, Jason. Did that one go down the wrong way?
Yeah, it really did. Would you like your porter?
I'm going to drink my porter now. All right.
Hearing from Jason. Hey, Jason, we need to have
you back on the show. Absolutely. Figure out
what you're... He was in Columbus today. I'm
going to talk about. Jason, I have been using
Dante controller and virtual sound card on a
weekly basis. And then trying to figure out Dante
in a more, I don't know, knowledgeable way lately.
Really appreciate your time that you gave to
us. I did, in fact, buy one of those Audinate
adapters that we talked about. Get a man. Yeah.
All right, what's our boost? All right. So from
what I can tell, the boost is 1 ,000 sats. 1
,000 sats? 1 ,000 sats, yeah. For? There's not
necessarily any numerological. Okay. What is
the proper word there? Numerology. Numerology.
There you go. There's no explicit number message.
Meaning there. But he does have a message referring
to the previous show. Okay. Which I will say,
you were very open. You were very honest. You
didn't hold back. But. you also didn't necessarily
directly throw people under the bus. Well, thanks,
man. And that's what he's going to reference
here as well. And I agree that I would say anybody
who's a member of the church who happened to
listen to that show, they would probably know
exactly what you were talking about. I doubt
it. But they, well, I guess I'm thinking more.
I think less people at the church know what I
do than I. Or what I used to do, at least. So,
okay, let me say it this way. I would like to
think if Paul heard the show. Yeah, no, he would
know. He would know exactly what you were referencing.
But you did it in a way that you weren't running
people over. I hope not. So. Not the intent.
Yeah, definitely wasn't the intent. Just. Okay.
The porter's a little flowery. Just stick with
the breakfast out. Okay. Okay. So his message
is, well. What is there to say after such a heartfelt
episode? Oh, wow. Okay. There you go. Yeah. There's
just some flowery terminology. Thanks, man. Heartfelt
episode, John. I'm not going to lie. Jason is
Midwestern, so that's basically he's crying right
now. Yes. He was probably crying knowing that
he went all the way down to Columbus just to
rerun a network cable. Gross. Yeah. And the bighorn,
the. First, I started with the right TV just
flickering on and off. I would like to just personally
apologize for the bighorn right now to you, Jason.
I feel like that's on me. No, what he's dealing
with now has been changed long since when you
had done anything. In fact, that AV booth, it's
gone. It doesn't exist anymore. What? It's gone
because they did a big remodel. Of the bighorn?
You can't do a big remodel of a tiny room. Well,
they made it slightly bigger. Okay. They actually
extended onto the building. Okay. And turned
it into coffee shop slash hangout spot for mom
and dad. Okay. And then the bathroom is still
on the outside. So is this, does it look more
like the Bluffs? Bluffs Point? Yeah. Point? Yeah.
Not as big. But it has a Bluff's Point look.
Okay. And so the booth became a mobile booth,
which we have. Everybody hates mobile booths.
Well, if you work in technology, yes, you hate
the mobile booth. If you don't work in technology,
you appear to think it's the best thing ever.
I'm telling you right now, it's terrible. It
absolutely is. Don't consider that like, oh,
my gosh. Yeah. So all that to say what he was
dealing with was from more recent remodels. Okay.
So, but he, he basically, he reran it problem
solved. The screens are no longer flickering
content off and on. And when that happens at
a family camp, that is a slightly higher level
level of, Ooh, you got to get that. No, I get
it. Then a youth camp. So, but bottom line, you
got it fixed. Good on you, Jason. I'm glad you
got it done. It was truly a down and back type
of thing. Can you come up to the church and fix
the problem that I'm having? What problem are
you having? Well, it's because of Wi -Fi, and
I could have told you that we were going to have
this problem at some point, but Chris couldn't
connect or was dropping connection to the Apple
TV on Sunday. We've been so rock solid for so
long, we just kind of took it for granted. And
I should have known. I should have known. But
I didn't prepare for the worst. And let this
be a good reminder to all of us working in the
AV world. Always, always prepare for the wireless
connection that you have to not work. There needs
to be a wired mic. there needs to be a wired
instrument there needs to be a wired video whatever
like if if it's not if you're not using everything
plugged in by like copper or fiber just have
a solution that does yeah because somewhere that
wireless is going to bite you in the rear And
I feel like everybody doesn't understand how
congested 2 .4 and five are getting now. 2 .4
especially. I mean, it's, it's so many things.
Yep. And so I, I don't know, man. Like I just,
I kind of got, um, it was a rough Sunday. Yep.
Part of me has been contemplating. Should we
turn off six gigahertz? Mm -hmm. Thinking about
the extender. Mm -hmm. Because I'm always seeing
issues with the extender. And I know some of
that you said is people are turning it off or
unplugging it or whatever it was. Yeah, they
just pull it straight out of the wall. I'm like,
what are you doing? Yeah, don't do that. If you
don't know what something is, please don't touch
it. Correct. But that is a, maybe that's just
six. I was thinking it was a 6E. I need to go
back and look at that model. But I was just wondering,
are we having some issues on 6 gigahertz that
could be causing some issues in the network?
Maybe. Because we didn't have some of this until
we introduced that radio. Yeah, and that radio
is still up today. So that's good. That's good.
That's a whole 24 hours of it not telling us
that we don't tell it what to do. I feel like
that radio is the... It's the boss. The Enterprise
7 is the teenager of our system. It likes to
tell us that we're not the boss of it. I know
better than you do. Yeah. So help me, I will
reset you again. I will factory wipe you. I mean...
Push me and see what happens. What the heck,
guys? And that's another thing for... As much
as I love Unify, their lack of support is unbelievable.
Eventually, they're going to respond. Yeah. But
because we don't pay, it's just like when they
get to you, they get to you. Meanwhile, you could
find yourself drowning and people are going,
just fix it already. And the alternative is like,
okay, I'm going to put the old access point back.
Here you go, folks. Well, I'm probably not. I'm
going to have to get a new one. What? Just saying.
So was your Apple TV at least wired in? Yeah.
Oh, yeah. Okay. Okay. No, I don't make that mistake
anymore. It was okay. I will tell you, though,
that I did reseat it. In the midst of it. Like,
so I, I, I receded the Apple TV and then I also
went up there and unplugged the AP close to him
and then plugged it back in. I was like, y 'all
need to like take a timeout and then come back.
Yeah. Didn't have any problems after it actually
rebooted, but just like the number of times that
it failed was really, really gut wrenchingly
bad. Yeah. Now when he's on stage, is he not
connecting to the stage AP? I, he's not close
enough to any other AP to connect. Do we not
have the one on stage anymore? No, we do. Like,
that's what I'm saying. The stage AP is the closest
one to him. Okay. I don't, because at that point,
again, that's when I looked again at that other
radio and it said that it wasn't, we weren't
the boss of it. Yeah. I was like, well, he can't
be connected to that one, but. I don't know,
maybe he was, and maybe that was the problem.
I don't know. Yeah, that was such a weird thing.
I did tell them, like, the next time, because
I went back up to the sound booth at that point,
I said, the next time, if he drops again, unplug
that AP immediately. Don't touch it now. Like,
things are working now. You don't touch things
while they're working. Correct. But if it dies,
or like, if he drops, unplug that sucker in case
it's part of the problem. Because I was not willing
to. Anyway, I just had this funny vision in my
head of a type C dongle hanging off of his iPad
with an Ethernet cable plugged in and walking
around on stage. Oh, I would actually pay to
see that. Yeah, it'd be great. That'd be funny.
Don't step on your cable. Yeah, I've got to figure
out how to do that in a way that's not. You know,
I really wanted black carpet when we redid the
carpet. And they were like, no, that won't look
good. So we did this black and gray carpet to
try to hide more of the cables. And we have less
cables than we've ever had before. But still,
any cable that's not, actually anything that's
not jet black or matte black. Um, on that stage,
I get, I don't get, um, we hear about, and it's
like, I get it. Anything can be a distraction.
Sure. If you're paying attention to what's on
stage, then you're probably looking at them and
paying attention to the wrong thing. Well, I
have thoughts. I mean, when the man is up there
talking, That should be your focus. Yeah, I need
to stop talking. Okay. Hey, it was always good
to hang out. I'm going to sit here and drink
this beer for a little bit longer. Okay, I'm
right there with you. Thanks for hanging out
with us. Always good to have you. Yep. Thank
you again, Jason. Appreciate it. See you, everybody.
See you. Dr. Switzer? Yes, come in. I'm just
washing my hands. I'm Catherine Bigman. Janet
Carlisle referred me. Oh, yes. Still being buried
alive in a box. Yes. Yes, that's me. Should I
lay down? Oh, no, no, no. We don't do that anymore.
Just have a seat. Let me tell you a bit about
our billing. I charge $5 for the first five minutes,
and then absolutely nothing after that. How does
that sound? That sounds great. Too good to be
true, as a matter of fact. Well, I can almost
guarantee you that our session won't last the
full five minutes. Now, we don't do any insurance
billing, so you would either have to pay in cash
or by check. Wow, okay. And I don't make change.
All right. And go. Go what? Well, tell me about
the problem that you wish to address. Oh, okay.
Well, I have this fear of being buried alive
in a box. I just start thinking about being buried
alive, and I begin to panic. Has anyone ever
tried to bury you alive in a box? No. No, but
truly thinking about it does make my life horrible.
I mean, I can't go through tunnels or be in an
elevator or in a house, anything boxy. So what
you're saying is you're claustrophobic. Yes.
Yes, that's it. All right. Well, let's go, Catherine.
I'm going to say two words to you right now.
I want you to listen to them very, very carefully.
Then I want you to take them out of the office
with you and incorporate them into your life.
Shall I write them down? Well, if it makes you
comfortable, it's just two words. We find most
people can remember them. Okay. You ready? Yes.
Okay, you're there. Stop it! I'm sorry? Stop
it! Stop it? Yes. S -T -O -P, new word, I -T.
So, what are you saying? You know, it's funny.
I say two simple words, and I cannot tell you
the amount of people who say exactly the same
thing you're saying. I mean, this, you know,
this is not Yiddish, Catherine. This is English.
Stop it! So, I should just stop it? There you
go. I mean, you don't want to go through life
being scared of being buried alive in a box,
do you? I mean, that sounds frightening. Then
stop it! I can't. I mean, it's been with me since
childhood. No, no, no. No, we don't go there.
Just stop. So I should just stop being afraid
of being buried alive in a box? You got it. Good
girl. Well, it's only been three minutes, so
that will be $3. Actually, I only have a five,
so... Well, I don't make change. Then I guess
I'll take the full five minutes. Fine. All right.
Well, what other problems would you like to address?
I'm bulimic. I stick my fingers down my throat.
Stop it! What are you, a nut of some kind? Don't
do that. But I'm compelled to. My mom used to
call me... No, no, no. No, we don't go there.
But I've been having this dream. No, we don't
go there either. But my horoscope did say...
We definitely don't go there. Just stop it. What
else? Well, I have self -destructive relationships
with men. Stop it! You want to be with a man,
don't you? Mm -hmm, yes. Well, then stop it.
Don't be such a... Big baby. I wash my hands
a lot. That's all right. It is? I wash my hands
all the time. There's a lot of germs out there.
Yeah, don't worry about that one. I'm afraid
to drive. Well, stop it! How are you going to
get around? Get in the car and drive, you kook!
Stop it! What's the problem, Catherine? I don't
like this. I don't like this therapy at all.
You're just telling me to stop it. And you don't
like that? No, I don't. So you think we're moving
too fast, is that it? Yes. Yes, I do. All right,
then let me give you ten words that I think will...
I'll clear everything up for you. You want to
get a pad and a pencil for this one? All right.
Are you ready? Right here are the ten words.
Stop it or I'll bury you alive in a box!
