WEBVTT

00:00:33.039 --> 00:00:36.140
Hey Chris. Hey John. How you feeling? Doing okay.

00:00:36.219 --> 00:00:39.679
How are you? You know, it's been a while since

00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:44.380
we've done late night recording. Yes. And this

00:00:44.380 --> 00:00:46.719
has been a long day. Sounds like it's been a

00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:48.939
long day for you for sure. Yeah, I've been up

00:00:48.939 --> 00:00:54.600
here for a while. You know, not hard work. I

00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:57.460
think that we've all had those days where it

00:00:57.460 --> 00:01:02.920
kind of feels like you're more babysitting. a

00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:06.579
piece of gear or technology or a situation, then

00:01:06.579 --> 00:01:09.959
you are actually like hammering it out. But that

00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:12.200
was really nice. Even though it's been a long

00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:14.519
day, I think it feels longer because I was up

00:01:14.519 --> 00:01:19.340
here until seven o 'clock last night trying to

00:01:19.340 --> 00:01:23.280
get wires run, some power lines, power lines,

00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:29.180
power distribution done to some of our speakers

00:01:29.180 --> 00:01:35.530
that were. okay so guy comes in and puts in brand

00:01:35.530 --> 00:01:37.370
new speakers for us and they're fancy they're

00:01:37.370 --> 00:01:39.629
so nice i really like the way that they sound

00:01:39.629 --> 00:01:43.090
um but we had two of them fail they started buzzing

00:01:43.090 --> 00:01:45.709
so we sent them in and when i got up there and

00:01:45.709 --> 00:01:50.290
looked at it all realize there's seven like we

00:01:50.290 --> 00:01:54.230
have two stacks of line arrays that are seven

00:01:54.230 --> 00:01:58.010
deep and then we have some point source three

00:01:58.010 --> 00:02:02.480
point source uh uh, speakers that are kind of

00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:05.700
in a fill arrangement to, to fill out some of

00:02:05.700 --> 00:02:11.400
them shorter spots in our, in our room. Um, so

00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:15.400
it's an, it's an interesting setup and I am,

00:02:15.419 --> 00:02:17.300
I've, I've already been critiqued on it so many

00:02:17.300 --> 00:02:21.620
times, but, uh, the, the guy who installed them

00:02:21.620 --> 00:02:26.379
ran like Daisy chain, the power on those line

00:02:26.379 --> 00:02:32.689
arrays all together. to one 20 amp circuit and

00:02:32.689 --> 00:02:35.849
it's the same circuit that the projectors are

00:02:35.849 --> 00:02:41.430
on oh and so there was some there were some words

00:02:41.430 --> 00:02:46.050
uttered in that moment i bet um so we sent the

00:02:46.050 --> 00:02:51.629
two problem uh speakers off and then i basically

00:02:51.629 --> 00:02:55.270
said before we put the ones back in here we need

00:02:55.270 --> 00:02:58.389
to fix the power issue and we did that But we

00:02:58.389 --> 00:03:00.490
were up there, and we put the speakers in, and

00:03:00.490 --> 00:03:04.050
then I realized we haven't run the power to actually

00:03:04.050 --> 00:03:08.650
do this right, and they want to retune the room

00:03:08.650 --> 00:03:10.710
tomorrow. And I was like, well, if we're going

00:03:10.710 --> 00:03:13.210
to use these speakers. And then I found out they

00:03:13.210 --> 00:03:16.310
wanted to use the speakers this morning, and

00:03:16.310 --> 00:03:20.069
so I had to get all of that run before the end

00:03:20.069 --> 00:03:22.830
of the day yesterday and then had to get in early

00:03:22.830 --> 00:03:28.240
today to be there to run sound. Which was not,

00:03:28.300 --> 00:03:31.900
like I said, it was more babysitting than anything

00:03:31.900 --> 00:03:35.080
else. Yeah. I would say it sounds like you need

00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:39.919
two, if not three, circuits per stack. Yeah.

00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:47.699
Yeah. That's a lot. We've got four per side.

00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:51.039
Okay. But that's because they've got the subs

00:03:51.039 --> 00:03:55.379
run on a different circuit. Okay, yeah. And I

00:03:55.379 --> 00:03:57.560
think the subs were both on the same circuit

00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:00.360
before, but now they're separate circuits. So

00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:04.800
one 20 amp circuit for each sub and then two

00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:07.900
20 amp circuits for the speakers up top. I think

00:04:07.900 --> 00:04:12.560
there's actually another one. I just don't remember

00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:16.779
how that's run because the point sourcer runs

00:04:16.779 --> 00:04:21.259
separately. But it was a big deal. Glad we spent

00:04:21.259 --> 00:04:24.480
the money to do it. It was not cheap. Um, but

00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:26.699
it was just kind of the finishing up of all of

00:04:26.699 --> 00:04:30.439
that last night. And I was, um, up on a ladder

00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:33.579
by myself at six 30. And you know, when you're

00:04:33.579 --> 00:04:35.680
up in a room that doesn't have the air conditioning

00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:38.899
on and you're higher than you normally are. So

00:04:38.899 --> 00:04:41.500
it's hotter. Yeah. And then you lift that, uh,

00:04:41.740 --> 00:04:45.660
ceiling tile out of the way and all of the heat

00:04:45.660 --> 00:04:49.040
comes down on you and you're like, I've made

00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:52.759
bad choices. Now I'm standing on this. Yeah.

00:04:52.839 --> 00:04:57.199
You know, 25 -foot ladder in the air with my

00:04:57.199 --> 00:05:01.720
head in the insulation trying to pull these power

00:05:01.720 --> 00:05:03.920
cables through, which I had to make cables for

00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:08.120
because, you know, nothing can be easy. No. It

00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:09.819
was so frustrating. Anyway, there were a lot

00:05:09.819 --> 00:05:12.620
of parts of it that were frustrating. But this

00:05:12.620 --> 00:05:15.800
is why I need to drink a beer. So I'm going to

00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:20.930
drink a full -grown man beer. Good save. Yeah.

00:05:21.069 --> 00:05:23.410
I was like, nope. Kick save and a butte. Not

00:05:23.410 --> 00:05:27.189
saying that, John. Why are you talking? This

00:05:27.189 --> 00:05:29.829
is a family show, I'll have you know. Yeah. Dadgummit.

00:05:30.430 --> 00:05:32.850
Okay. What are you drinking? I've kind of gone

00:05:32.850 --> 00:05:35.170
to an Old Faithful, a breakfast stout. Breakfast

00:05:35.170 --> 00:05:38.990
stout. Love it. I have to admit that I just kind

00:05:38.990 --> 00:05:40.649
of grabbed what was left in the fridge on the

00:05:40.649 --> 00:05:43.990
way out the door. Well, I grabbed what was left

00:05:43.990 --> 00:05:47.050
in the fridge here in the house. Yes, you did.

00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:55.839
We're doing it. That was a fail. The opener slipped.

00:05:56.459 --> 00:05:59.360
Didn't get the sound you were looking for there?

00:05:59.399 --> 00:06:05.000
No. Also, because we just got done serving dinner

00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:09.100
here, and I didn't really get to sit down. Oh,

00:06:09.139 --> 00:06:11.160
that's another fun story I'll save for later.

00:06:11.500 --> 00:06:15.000
I have sandwiches, so help yourself to a sandwich.

00:06:15.300 --> 00:06:18.459
Yes. I guess we'll apologize in advance for any

00:06:18.459 --> 00:06:23.519
smackage. Smackage or. Oh, look at that. That's

00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:26.759
a beautiful pour. I'm just saying two of those

00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:30.339
in this gargantuan. That's not bad. I'm going

00:06:30.339 --> 00:06:32.360
to take a picture of that. It's not bad. Got

00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:34.300
to get the. It's got a good head on it. Everything.

00:06:37.399 --> 00:06:40.579
Oh, who names these things? Anyway. That's what

00:06:40.579 --> 00:06:43.019
they call it. I know. I'm just. Get out of the

00:06:43.019 --> 00:06:54.620
gutter. Oh, that's me. There you go. Clean the

00:06:54.620 --> 00:06:57.540
camera lens. It's telling me to clean the camera

00:06:57.540 --> 00:07:00.019
lens? Like, hey, buddy. I don't know if you've

00:07:00.019 --> 00:07:04.779
noticed, but you need to actually dust that bad

00:07:04.779 --> 00:07:07.600
boy off. It's all roast beef? Yeah, it's all

00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:14.759
roast beef. And they just have the meat and cheese

00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:20.199
on them. Oh, even better. I was like, I actually

00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:24.680
ask them whenever we order. I'm like, hey, could

00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:28.500
you not put the veggies on there? Because, you

00:07:28.500 --> 00:07:31.279
know, it makes everything soggy. Here you go,

00:07:31.319 --> 00:07:38.740
folks. That is some fascinating ASMR. ASMR, yes.

00:07:38.980 --> 00:07:45.560
No big deal. Yes. I'm sending this to you. Yes,

00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:47.920
it's wrapped in the paper, folks. Thank you.

00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:51.720
Jimmy John's. Thank you, Jimmy John's. This episode

00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:57.060
brought to you by, no. But if you are ever in

00:07:57.060 --> 00:08:00.620
Tyler looking for a sandwich, Alex at Jimmy John's

00:08:00.620 --> 00:08:05.839
hooks us up. Yes. And really, really grateful.

00:08:06.019 --> 00:08:08.720
This is not the Danny DeVito soap. No, it's not.

00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:20.019
Yeah, there's plenty of... What was that? The

00:08:20.019 --> 00:08:25.300
new... Oh, it was Eli Manning. The commercial

00:08:25.300 --> 00:08:28.420
where he falls into the conference room or whatever

00:08:28.420 --> 00:08:33.879
and he's yelling at Eli Manning. Eli's. Eli's.

00:08:34.000 --> 00:08:38.519
You'll be hearing from my lawyer. Kaboom! He's

00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:46.000
prompt. He's prompt. I love it. Okay, so part

00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:48.840
of the reason that I didn't get to eat while

00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:55.659
we were doing food tonight was that have you

00:08:55.659 --> 00:09:02.220
ever set up something and you're like, this is

00:09:02.220 --> 00:09:06.720
like, we don't ever need to mess with this again.

00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:10.200
So I'm just going to set it in a way that is

00:09:10.200 --> 00:09:16.679
kind of vague. you know i say vague but generic

00:09:16.679 --> 00:09:22.059
and the stuff that i'm setting it for is not

00:09:22.059 --> 00:09:25.860
stuff that changes so boom no big deal and then

00:09:25.860 --> 00:09:29.860
management decides to change something yep that

00:09:29.860 --> 00:09:34.399
you're like well that sucks now i gotta go to

00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:36.559
all these different places and you know change

00:09:36.559 --> 00:09:38.019
all these different oh and there's that thing

00:09:38.019 --> 00:09:42.919
that i set up again that was like So long ago,

00:09:43.059 --> 00:09:46.639
we don't even mess with that anymore. And there's

00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:52.399
only one tool that can be used for that because

00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:57.279
of some archaic software. But the good news is

00:09:57.279 --> 00:10:00.580
I put everything to make that happen in a bag

00:10:00.580 --> 00:10:03.159
all together. And then you go and you open the

00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:07.299
bag and the power cord's not there. Uh -oh. And

00:10:07.299 --> 00:10:14.799
you're like, in my particular case. Am I going

00:10:14.799 --> 00:10:20.000
to have to eBay a Dell Vostro 1400 power cable

00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:25.720
so that I can change the sign that's so outdated?

00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:30.500
Like the old barrel? Yeah, old barrel style.

00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:34.960
No, I found one, but it took me all evening to

00:10:34.960 --> 00:10:39.360
find it. I was looking underneath desks and all

00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:45.529
kinds of places. It was not pleasant. But it

00:10:45.529 --> 00:10:48.970
was definitely one of those. All right. Well,

00:10:49.110 --> 00:10:55.629
adding to the tired. Yes. Yeah, that was the

00:10:55.629 --> 00:11:01.990
other fun story. I would say recently for us.

00:11:02.029 --> 00:11:05.690
There you go. Take it in, folks. You should see

00:11:05.690 --> 00:11:09.850
it. It's worse. Yes. It's so much worse. The

00:11:09.850 --> 00:11:12.980
closest that we've had for that. Probably the

00:11:12.980 --> 00:11:19.779
last year is trying to keep Google groups organized.

00:11:22.659 --> 00:11:26.559
You know that find code loves change. Yes. They

00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:28.940
embrace it wholeheartedly. Wholeheartedly. They

00:11:28.940 --> 00:11:31.820
will hire people to change things. Correct. So

00:11:31.820 --> 00:11:36.940
I would say the last two years, the change rate

00:11:36.940 --> 00:11:40.179
has been off the charts. It does seem like there's

00:11:40.179 --> 00:11:43.240
a lot. And particularly in the last year, it's

00:11:43.240 --> 00:11:47.600
gone just completely off the rails. And so you'll

00:11:47.600 --> 00:11:50.360
get Google groups, right? And you're like, okay,

00:11:50.500 --> 00:11:54.460
we can breathe. Hey, this is happening and this

00:11:54.460 --> 00:11:57.539
is good over there. And you're like, you just

00:11:57.539 --> 00:11:59.580
broke everything. You broke everything again.

00:11:59.600 --> 00:12:01.639
And that's probably happened five or six times

00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:04.000
in the last year. HR, let me train you how to

00:12:04.000 --> 00:12:10.120
do this. This is your job now. Yep. So. I think

00:12:10.120 --> 00:12:16.019
we found a solution that will fix it. But there's

00:12:16.019 --> 00:12:20.240
some work involved. And I'm sure they'll find

00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:22.940
a way. To break it again. To break it again.

00:12:25.500 --> 00:12:27.220
So you're talking about more than just like.

00:12:31.200 --> 00:12:35.059
This is talking about using groups to handle

00:12:35.059 --> 00:12:38.059
distribution of email. Yeah. Which should be

00:12:38.059 --> 00:12:41.129
pretty straightforward. You're in this department.

00:12:42.409 --> 00:12:46.149
Here you go. Oh, well they're in this and then

00:12:46.149 --> 00:12:47.690
they're also in this and they're in that over

00:12:47.690 --> 00:12:49.929
there. And we really need them to have this stuff.

00:12:52.269 --> 00:12:54.549
Yeah, no, that's not, that's not fun at all.

00:12:54.809 --> 00:12:58.570
No, I've tried to keep all of that as minimal

00:12:58.570 --> 00:13:01.090
as possible, but it really is tough. And then

00:13:01.090 --> 00:13:03.389
somebody will tell you why, you know, this person's

00:13:03.389 --> 00:13:05.929
not receiving this email and like they're in

00:13:05.929 --> 00:13:10.659
the group. Have they checked their spam? Yep.

00:13:10.960 --> 00:13:13.299
Well, the beauty of that is you can go into the

00:13:13.299 --> 00:13:20.100
email log and go delivered. Delivered. We had

00:13:20.100 --> 00:13:23.440
a fun one in that vein. I'm not getting the email.

00:13:23.480 --> 00:13:25.779
I'm not getting the email. And we went into the

00:13:25.779 --> 00:13:28.200
email log and we could literally see not only

00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:32.240
was it delivered, but that it was opened. It's

00:13:32.240 --> 00:13:34.240
like, I'm sorry, you got the email. You did get

00:13:34.240 --> 00:13:39.059
the email. Yes. There's some sort of delusion

00:13:39.059 --> 00:13:42.220
happening that I'm not really prepared to walk

00:13:42.220 --> 00:13:47.379
into with you right now. I don't want to call

00:13:47.379 --> 00:13:49.059
you a liar right here in front of everybody.

00:13:49.379 --> 00:13:55.259
Sure. That's a fun screen that just popped up.

00:13:55.580 --> 00:13:57.679
I know she's not listening, but shout out to

00:13:57.679 --> 00:14:01.940
Ruthie for keeping Google working. She's been

00:14:01.940 --> 00:14:08.820
awesome. Man, I miss Ruthie. She's rock solid,

00:14:08.940 --> 00:14:13.600
man. She's awesome. She keeps us in line. I was

00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:16.519
really frustrated when she left. Yep. Oh, I need

00:14:16.519 --> 00:14:18.840
to... I didn't even think about that. I need

00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:22.399
to send you a picture of what she did with the

00:14:22.399 --> 00:14:25.740
space now that Jacob ran away and went to Dallas.

00:14:25.980 --> 00:14:28.620
Yeah. And we had all that extra. Extra space.

00:14:29.100 --> 00:14:31.299
Now it actually looks welcoming and presentable.

00:14:31.419 --> 00:14:33.580
Of course it does because... I'll send you pictures

00:14:33.580 --> 00:14:36.720
tomorrow. You have to come hang out. Every IT...

00:14:37.830 --> 00:14:41.750
should have somebody like Ruthie. That's, you

00:14:41.750 --> 00:14:47.409
know, thinking through. I'm going to let you

00:14:47.409 --> 00:14:50.710
see it next time it does it. Thinks through stuff

00:14:50.710 --> 00:14:54.889
like that. A relationships manager, if you will.

00:14:55.070 --> 00:14:59.639
There you go. You've got me thinking. i t crowd

00:14:59.639 --> 00:15:01.179
all the way with the way that you are reacting

00:15:01.179 --> 00:15:03.759
to the computer i'm waiting for you to go i haven't

00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:10.019
seen that one since 1994 if your computer was

00:15:10.019 --> 00:15:13.320
a human i'd shoot it in the face in the face

00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:19.799
it just it seems like maybe that's where we're

00:15:19.799 --> 00:15:27.259
going with this one but you know I'm sure that

00:15:27.259 --> 00:15:34.659
there wasn't anything like that shouldn't have

00:15:34.659 --> 00:15:41.720
been on here. It's fine. Yep. Okay. You're going

00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:43.460
to have to watch. I'm going to hit the update

00:15:43.460 --> 00:15:53.320
now. Okay. Ready? Mm -hmm. Okay. Agree. Oh, sorry.

00:15:53.340 --> 00:15:56.259
I would agree. Agree? If I don't agree, it doesn't

00:15:56.259 --> 00:16:02.120
work. Got to agree. Agree. Oh, that's awesome.

00:16:04.500 --> 00:16:07.940
I'm looking for updates now. Where'd the error

00:16:07.940 --> 00:16:11.059
go? What was the error? Can we get a screenshot

00:16:11.059 --> 00:16:13.019
of the error? I didn't see the error. I just

00:16:13.019 --> 00:16:14.720
saw it totally reset, and now it's looking for

00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:18.980
updates again. Oh, no. There's a little box that

00:16:18.980 --> 00:16:20.919
shows up that's this big, and then it disappears,

00:16:21.139 --> 00:16:25.120
and it's got a... Okay. error on it but it doesn't

00:16:25.120 --> 00:16:27.279
let you read the error it just disappears so

00:16:27.279 --> 00:16:36.539
you're getting restarted right now i just every

00:16:36.539 --> 00:16:44.279
once in a while i want to sing and dance i want

00:16:44.279 --> 00:16:46.840
to sing and dance live in gear support right

00:16:46.840 --> 00:16:50.120
on the show folks i want to be a pirate in the

00:16:50.120 --> 00:16:54.309
pirates of penzance You know this one? No. Did

00:16:54.309 --> 00:16:59.710
you ever listen to Ray Stevens? No. Okay. Well,

00:16:59.870 --> 00:17:03.009
I'm still going to be your friend. Ray Stevens,

00:17:03.309 --> 00:17:09.609
really funny, but always did like songs that

00:17:09.609 --> 00:17:14.349
were, you know, like Weird Al did like parodies

00:17:14.349 --> 00:17:17.250
of songs and that's part of what made them funny

00:17:17.250 --> 00:17:19.529
was him rewriting the lyrics and everything.

00:17:20.859 --> 00:17:23.960
Ray Stevens was just like a comedian who most

00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:26.380
of his comedy was... I recognize him now that

00:17:26.380 --> 00:17:31.099
I see the picture. So he did one that was...

00:17:31.099 --> 00:17:39.559
Now let's see if I can remember this. He did

00:17:39.559 --> 00:17:41.940
one that was... I don't know what it's called.

00:17:42.339 --> 00:17:45.680
It's like either Pirates or I Want to Sing and

00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:47.180
Dance or something like that. And it's really

00:17:47.180 --> 00:17:49.960
funny because the... You know, it starts off

00:17:49.960 --> 00:17:54.880
with the 16 men under dead men's chest. And then

00:17:54.880 --> 00:17:57.819
the captain, the pirate captain, who sounds very

00:17:57.819 --> 00:18:00.259
pirate captain -y, is talking to his crew. And

00:18:00.259 --> 00:18:04.480
they're all, yeah, we're going to pillage. We're

00:18:04.480 --> 00:18:08.920
going to plunder. And then you hear this little

00:18:08.920 --> 00:18:14.039
effeminate voice say, I don't like that. What

00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:16.980
do you mean you don't like it? We're pirates.

00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:21.160
I don't like it and I don't want it. And then

00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:23.960
he was like, well, what do you want? It turns

00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:26.779
out after like through the whole song, you go

00:18:26.779 --> 00:18:28.420
through the whole song that this little voice

00:18:28.420 --> 00:18:33.819
is, is the pirate captain's son. And then at

00:18:33.819 --> 00:18:38.960
the end, he's like, well, you don't like all

00:18:38.960 --> 00:18:45.279
of these things. And, uh, but you want to sing

00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:47.019
and dance. And he's like, yeah. And he's like,

00:18:47.609 --> 00:18:52.069
All right, we'll all sing and dance. We'll all

00:18:52.069 --> 00:18:55.009
sing and dance. No, we don't want to. Or you'll

00:18:55.009 --> 00:18:56.930
walk the plank, and so then they all sing, and

00:18:56.930 --> 00:19:00.569
you hear all the. Anyway, it's hilarious. There's

00:19:00.569 --> 00:19:03.509
plenty of them. And I was like, and surprisingly,

00:19:03.690 --> 00:19:15.230
very like PC of today. Not shaming. And Ray Stevens

00:19:15.230 --> 00:19:20.460
was a long time ago. I listened to Ray Stevens

00:19:20.460 --> 00:19:25.900
and Mark Lowry a lot growing up because they

00:19:25.900 --> 00:19:31.039
were music and comedy that my parents were okay

00:19:31.039 --> 00:19:37.680
with. Baptist family. Mom used to say that I'd

00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:39.720
be sitting in the back of the Suburban because

00:19:39.720 --> 00:19:42.619
my sisters are in the front seats of the Suburban.

00:19:42.900 --> 00:19:46.269
I'm in the back. And I would be sitting in the

00:19:46.269 --> 00:19:48.910
back of the Suburban just giggling with my little

00:19:48.910 --> 00:19:52.930
Walkman tape deck. Tape. There you go, tape,

00:19:52.990 --> 00:19:56.549
yes. Not CD. This is before the CD. Because the

00:19:56.549 --> 00:19:58.630
Walkman was cassette. Yeah, Walkman was cassette.

00:19:59.329 --> 00:20:01.829
They came out with a CD player, right? They did.

00:20:02.309 --> 00:20:05.730
It was terrible. Because you expected to be able

00:20:05.730 --> 00:20:08.650
to do with the Walkman CD player what you could

00:20:08.650 --> 00:20:10.829
do with the tape deck and just hook it onto your

00:20:10.829 --> 00:20:12.940
belt. But I don't know if you've ever tried to

00:20:12.940 --> 00:20:18.559
do that with a CD. It doesn't work. Even if you

00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:23.559
put the anti -skip switch on, it's still going

00:20:23.559 --> 00:20:27.259
to skip. Yep. It doesn't work well. Okay. It

00:20:27.259 --> 00:20:30.619
wasn't meant to, though. This is not, we didn't

00:20:30.619 --> 00:20:35.319
talk about any of this, but still, not planned.

00:20:37.200 --> 00:20:41.450
Favorite old technology. Favorite old technology.

00:20:43.410 --> 00:20:46.609
LaserDisc. I always was fascinated by LaserDisc.

00:20:46.609 --> 00:20:48.269
Somehow I knew you were going to say LaserDisc.

00:20:48.289 --> 00:20:52.769
My uncle had one. I think we still lived in Indiana

00:20:52.769 --> 00:20:58.690
at the time. I remember he had LaserDisc. I thought

00:20:58.690 --> 00:21:01.009
it was the most amazing thing ever. It's the

00:21:01.009 --> 00:21:05.759
size of an album. This is a vinyl record. Basically.

00:21:06.019 --> 00:21:09.940
That is silver. Yeah. He was a big Star Trek

00:21:09.940 --> 00:21:12.319
fan, so he had some of the Star Trek movies on

00:21:12.319 --> 00:21:18.339
Laserdisc. He had Coming to America. Oh, wow.

00:21:18.740 --> 00:21:22.460
Well, that may be pushing it past when we already

00:21:22.460 --> 00:21:26.779
were here. So anyways, Laserdisc by far. In fact,

00:21:26.819 --> 00:21:29.000
I've come so close. Because you can get them

00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:31.579
reasonably priced. Can you? Well, not getting

00:21:31.579 --> 00:21:34.380
the player, but getting the Star Wars original

00:21:34.380 --> 00:21:37.420
trilogy on Laserdisc. Yeah. I'd never be able

00:21:37.420 --> 00:21:40.539
to watch it because I don't have a player. I

00:21:40.539 --> 00:21:42.880
don't intend to buy a player. But for whatever

00:21:42.880 --> 00:21:45.299
reason, I just have always been fascinated by

00:21:45.299 --> 00:21:48.359
the idea of owning the original trilogy movies

00:21:48.359 --> 00:21:51.700
on Laserdisc. That's an interesting aspiration

00:21:51.700 --> 00:21:54.559
for somebody who doesn't have a player. It seems

00:21:54.559 --> 00:22:00.759
like you would want the player. Um, so, but yeah,

00:22:00.799 --> 00:22:02.779
I would say laser disc for me. That's pretty

00:22:02.779 --> 00:22:07.420
great. By far. Um, so along those, I do remember

00:22:07.420 --> 00:22:11.460
when our, um, one of, I think it was our librarian

00:22:11.460 --> 00:22:13.819
actually, um, you know, cause librarians are

00:22:13.819 --> 00:22:17.819
always somehow librarians are the, you know,

00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:22.420
technology people in schools. Um, we did have

00:22:22.420 --> 00:22:25.509
a like, computer labs person but that's not like

00:22:25.509 --> 00:22:27.109
the librarian is the one that would bring the

00:22:27.109 --> 00:22:31.710
like the tv with the on the cart on the cart

00:22:31.710 --> 00:22:34.430
av club baby yeah all of that was coming from

00:22:34.430 --> 00:22:38.670
the library not the computer anyway seemed very

00:22:38.670 --> 00:22:42.490
unrelated at the time now it's like well obviously

00:22:42.490 --> 00:22:47.569
that's the tech guy yeah anyway um but i remember

00:22:47.569 --> 00:22:51.970
them pulling in in elementary school, in elementary

00:22:51.970 --> 00:22:55.730
school, pulling in a TV that had this massive

00:22:55.730 --> 00:22:59.950
VCR on the bottom of it. And I was like, what

00:22:59.950 --> 00:23:02.730
is that? And then they pulled out the LaserDisc.

00:23:03.230 --> 00:23:06.369
And I was like, oh my gosh, we're in the future.

00:23:07.849 --> 00:23:12.849
I was just looking real quick, and most of these

00:23:12.849 --> 00:23:17.240
LaserDisc players on eBay are going... For like

00:23:17.240 --> 00:23:21.980
$200 to $300. That's not terrible. I'm not paying

00:23:21.980 --> 00:23:23.680
that much for a Laser Displayer. I'm not saying

00:23:23.680 --> 00:23:25.880
you should. I'm just saying it's not terrible.

00:23:26.980 --> 00:23:31.640
That's expensive, man. Again. I'm being a cheapskate.

00:23:31.960 --> 00:23:35.019
I'm not saying that you should do it. Sure. But

00:23:35.019 --> 00:23:38.640
if you're going to get the trilogy. It's just

00:23:38.640 --> 00:23:40.579
more about having the collectible more than anything.

00:23:41.240 --> 00:23:45.339
Oh, that's great. Laser Displayer. Laser Displayer.

00:23:45.420 --> 00:23:50.529
Laser Displayer. Plug your ears, kids. Really?

00:23:50.849 --> 00:23:57.670
Well, it's typical of the 80s. It is a entertainment

00:23:57.670 --> 00:24:02.829
collection of the bunny variety. There, I dressed

00:24:02.829 --> 00:24:05.309
it down, so to speak, for the kids in the audience.

00:24:05.309 --> 00:24:08.490
For the children. And then it's back to just

00:24:08.490 --> 00:24:10.009
players, players, players, players, players.

00:24:11.329 --> 00:24:13.069
Yeah, see, there you go. You can get Stephen

00:24:13.069 --> 00:24:17.289
King's It on Laserdisc for $15. That's what I'm

00:24:17.289 --> 00:24:23.690
talking about. Cheap. Super cheap. Because they

00:24:23.690 --> 00:24:25.950
know nobody has a player. Because you have to

00:24:25.950 --> 00:24:29.730
buy over $200. Yeah, I'm not spending that kind

00:24:29.730 --> 00:24:37.569
of money. Anyway. But I digress. Oh my gosh.

00:24:39.089 --> 00:24:42.569
I'm so tired it's hard to chew. Okay, so mine.

00:24:44.619 --> 00:24:46.900
I've thought about this for a long time. Okay.

00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:55.119
The technology that I am really sad did not last

00:24:55.119 --> 00:25:02.400
and like become a thing. I want to say for longer,

00:25:02.599 --> 00:25:07.099
but honestly, I would still love it today. Our

00:25:07.099 --> 00:25:12.039
mini disc. Oh yeah. Players. Yeah. Because really.

00:25:13.839 --> 00:25:16.160
It's a little laser disc. It's a little laser

00:25:16.160 --> 00:25:20.440
disc. And like the, the, the mini discs to me,

00:25:20.500 --> 00:25:25.500
it was like, Oh, they fixed the CD. You know,

00:25:25.519 --> 00:25:27.599
like we, we put a little cartridge around this

00:25:27.599 --> 00:25:31.839
bad boy and it's not skipping. Yeah. And so like

00:25:31.839 --> 00:25:35.000
my cousin had like a mini disc. Um, he had a

00:25:35.000 --> 00:25:39.920
mini disc player in like his home stereo setup.

00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:46.589
And he also had a mini disc, like, Walkman of

00:25:46.589 --> 00:25:50.329
sorts. Yeah, I remember those. And I thought

00:25:50.329 --> 00:25:58.730
this was the future. Sadly, the iPod came out.

00:25:59.789 --> 00:26:04.470
And I say sadly, and I think everybody knows

00:26:04.470 --> 00:26:09.390
what I mean. The iPod then was the advent of

00:26:09.390 --> 00:26:15.759
not owning physical copies of... anything that

00:26:15.759 --> 00:26:20.339
you buy. Um, and many disc was the opposite in

00:26:20.339 --> 00:26:26.019
that it made it so easy to record, to make your

00:26:26.019 --> 00:26:30.200
own, like I was not mixed tape. I was not, yeah,

00:26:30.279 --> 00:26:32.220
I was not, I was not fancy enough to have one

00:26:32.220 --> 00:26:34.299
of these, but can you imagine how easy it would

00:26:34.299 --> 00:26:36.980
have been to do a mixtape on one of those bad

00:26:36.980 --> 00:26:40.519
boys? Oh yeah. I sat there with my cassette player

00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:46.589
listening to the radio. I just need the first

00:26:46.589 --> 00:26:50.490
two notes of the song I'm listening for, and

00:26:50.490 --> 00:26:56.069
I'm hitting this record play button. Yep. I'm

00:26:56.069 --> 00:27:00.130
just saying. Oh, yeah. Kids these days. No idea.

00:27:00.990 --> 00:27:06.450
No patience. No follow through. If you never

00:27:06.450 --> 00:27:10.630
had to make a play or a, what do you call it?

00:27:11.700 --> 00:27:14.099
mixtape for your girlfriend. Oh, yeah. You're

00:27:14.099 --> 00:27:19.019
not going to know what love really is. Fair.

00:27:22.720 --> 00:27:29.559
Anyway. Okay. Did we actually say what we were

00:27:29.559 --> 00:27:32.400
going to do today? Well, not yet. I'm realizing

00:27:32.400 --> 00:27:34.819
we didn't really describe the beer. Oh, we didn't

00:27:34.819 --> 00:27:37.819
describe the beer. Well, these are two beers

00:27:37.819 --> 00:27:40.420
that we've done. Well, I know. But still. There's

00:27:40.420 --> 00:27:41.759
new people out there. There's new people out

00:27:41.759 --> 00:27:43.460
there. Maybe this is the first time. And I know

00:27:43.460 --> 00:27:45.319
there's new people out there because I keep watching

00:27:45.319 --> 00:27:47.759
the OP3 numbers. Look at you. And I can't figure

00:27:47.759 --> 00:27:49.940
out what's happening. No, it's not. I don't think

00:27:49.940 --> 00:27:52.200
so. Because it's not that they're getting the

00:27:52.200 --> 00:27:54.740
most recent shows. Yeah. They're hitting all

00:27:54.740 --> 00:27:57.880
these older shows. Okay. And I'm like, okay,

00:27:57.960 --> 00:28:00.960
that's weird. And a lot of it's coming from Amsterdam.

00:28:01.980 --> 00:28:04.359
I'm like, that's weird. Shout out Amsterdam.

00:28:04.660 --> 00:28:07.420
Yeah. Y 'all are too high to know that you've

00:28:07.420 --> 00:28:11.299
wandered onto our show. Congratulations. We've

00:28:11.299 --> 00:28:14.119
got the munchies over here, too. Yeah. I mean,

00:28:14.160 --> 00:28:17.539
so far, in the month of September, just throwing

00:28:17.539 --> 00:28:20.539
a fun number out, 46 % of our downloads have

00:28:20.539 --> 00:28:23.339
come from the Netherlands. Sounds like we need

00:28:23.339 --> 00:28:27.220
to make a trip. Oh, like Cheech and Chong. That's

00:28:27.220 --> 00:28:34.880
right. Oh, boy. Was that Still Smoking? Where

00:28:34.880 --> 00:28:36.880
they went? I don't remember. They were pretending

00:28:36.880 --> 00:28:40.359
to be the... and then the real people showed

00:28:40.359 --> 00:28:45.819
up. That's hilarious. Yeah. That's pretty funny.

00:28:47.019 --> 00:28:51.299
Anyway. So, yeah, what we intended to talk on

00:28:51.299 --> 00:28:57.720
first was the wonderful challenges of trying

00:28:57.720 --> 00:29:00.660
to stay legal for audio and video. That's right.

00:29:00.779 --> 00:29:04.759
Oh, it's the worst. Yes. And then second half

00:29:04.759 --> 00:29:07.000
of the show, we will get into the Intel backdoor.

00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:11.359
Okay. This is one of those things like I have.

00:29:13.279 --> 00:29:16.980
We didn't used to have this problem. You know,

00:29:16.980 --> 00:29:20.660
as as churches, we didn't used to have this problem

00:29:20.660 --> 00:29:23.339
because all the music that you did was in the

00:29:23.339 --> 00:29:26.380
hymnal. True. And so if you bought the hymnals,

00:29:26.380 --> 00:29:30.000
you're fine. And I would argue in the 1980s,

00:29:30.000 --> 00:29:32.700
the Christian music was so bad that nobody cared

00:29:32.700 --> 00:29:35.559
if you were playing it. Without a license. But

00:29:35.559 --> 00:29:37.880
in the church that I grew up in, we only did

00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:40.279
hymns. Oh, yeah. For me as well. For me as well.

00:29:40.380 --> 00:29:44.859
But when I listen to 1980s Christian music, it's

00:29:44.859 --> 00:29:48.319
just like, oh, I just want to shove pencils in

00:29:48.319 --> 00:29:51.380
my ears. The quality of the music was just like,

00:29:51.420 --> 00:29:57.039
oh. They didn't have the monetary backing that

00:29:57.039 --> 00:30:00.019
they do now. Oh, they clearly didn't. But they

00:30:00.019 --> 00:30:06.240
were trying real hard. Yeah. Shout out, Striper.

00:30:06.880 --> 00:30:09.960
Yes, I remember that. In fact, the Christian

00:30:09.960 --> 00:30:12.079
music of the 80s is why I probably never really

00:30:12.079 --> 00:30:16.140
got into Christian music at all. It ruined me

00:30:16.140 --> 00:30:19.099
early. Every now and then there'll be one that'll

00:30:19.099 --> 00:30:21.519
be like, hey, that's actually not bad. Well,

00:30:21.619 --> 00:30:24.779
like, okay. So I have always had, and this is

00:30:24.779 --> 00:30:27.839
my mother's influence, I think, I've always had

00:30:27.839 --> 00:30:33.190
a soft spot for singer -songwriters. So Rich

00:30:33.190 --> 00:30:37.150
Mullins was like the pinnacle to me. And still

00:30:37.150 --> 00:30:41.730
is to a certain extent. I still stack him up

00:30:41.730 --> 00:30:48.890
against a lot of songwriters. He had some serious

00:30:48.890 --> 00:30:53.049
diversity. He had the ability to do these big

00:30:53.049 --> 00:30:57.369
80s ballad -like... Not even ballad -like...

00:30:58.599 --> 00:31:00.420
I mean, I guess you can call it a power ballad.

00:31:00.460 --> 00:31:04.039
He, he, he would do these like musical, like,

00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:07.339
I mean, it's just a composition. Like there's,

00:31:07.339 --> 00:31:10.319
there there's movement. There's, there's, there's

00:31:10.319 --> 00:31:14.720
an, like a beginning and then it's going to take

00:31:14.720 --> 00:31:16.500
you into this place. And then all of a sudden

00:31:16.500 --> 00:31:21.359
you're singing. How did that happen? And there's

00:31:21.359 --> 00:31:27.259
a climax of, you know, whatever the point of

00:31:27.259 --> 00:31:30.819
the song that he's doing is and then he could

00:31:30.819 --> 00:31:34.500
do like an acapella just voices like whatever

00:31:34.500 --> 00:31:36.799
that would make you cry at the end of it and

00:31:36.799 --> 00:31:39.299
you're like what what what what did you just

00:31:39.299 --> 00:31:43.440
do to me yeah um i just was always really impressed

00:31:43.440 --> 00:31:46.720
with with his musicality um for somebody who

00:31:46.720 --> 00:31:53.339
was just just a you know t -shirt and jeans yeah

00:31:53.339 --> 00:32:01.119
christian artist There's a lot of his story and

00:32:01.119 --> 00:32:03.279
everything that I think I was sheltered from

00:32:03.279 --> 00:32:05.460
when I was a kid or we just didn't know because

00:32:05.460 --> 00:32:09.099
they didn't have social media back then. But

00:32:09.099 --> 00:32:13.839
it's only made me like him more the more I found

00:32:13.839 --> 00:32:17.400
out about him. But because of that, because of

00:32:17.400 --> 00:32:20.619
my mom's influence and because of listening to

00:32:20.619 --> 00:32:25.190
only Christian music growing up. I had to go

00:32:25.190 --> 00:32:28.450
to my cousin's house to listen to anything that

00:32:28.450 --> 00:32:34.670
was on the secular radio. Oh, there you go. I

00:32:34.670 --> 00:32:39.029
did not have the education musically that most

00:32:39.029 --> 00:32:45.410
people did. It didn't sound so bad because that's

00:32:45.410 --> 00:32:51.029
all you were used to was KLTY. True. It may be

00:32:51.029 --> 00:32:52.690
the wrong decade, but the name that always...

00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:55.859
Comes to mind to me for Christian artists back

00:32:55.859 --> 00:32:59.180
then was Michael W. Smith. I don't remember if

00:32:59.180 --> 00:33:05.200
he's late 80s or 90s or what. Both. Both Michael

00:33:05.200 --> 00:33:07.640
W. Smith and Stephen Curtis Chapman had mullets.

00:33:08.119 --> 00:33:12.259
So, you know, they were in the 80s. Yep. 80s

00:33:12.259 --> 00:33:16.259
and early 90s. Amy Grant back in the day. Oh,

00:33:16.259 --> 00:33:20.380
yeah. Twyla Paris. Just pulling that out of.

00:33:20.460 --> 00:33:23.490
Don't know that one. Oh, man. There's no reason

00:33:23.490 --> 00:33:26.450
for you to know who she is because of what I

00:33:26.450 --> 00:33:29.829
know about what you were listening to. And she

00:33:29.829 --> 00:33:31.210
would have been one of the ones that you were

00:33:31.210 --> 00:33:35.210
like, no. You make it sound like I was a heathen.

00:33:36.130 --> 00:33:39.349
Not at all. Just not. Like if you didn't have

00:33:39.349 --> 00:33:41.369
to listen to this stuff, there's no reason for

00:33:41.369 --> 00:33:44.130
you to listen to this stuff. But let me tell

00:33:44.130 --> 00:33:47.529
you, when you have to listen to stuff and it's

00:33:47.529 --> 00:33:53.420
like you start to get excited about. Oh, my gosh.

00:33:53.440 --> 00:34:03.539
What was his name? Yanni. Harmon. Wow. That was

00:34:03.539 --> 00:34:06.359
in the 90s. Yeah, I definitely don't recognize

00:34:06.359 --> 00:34:10.380
her. No, that's a he. No, Twyla Parris. Oh, Twyla

00:34:10.380 --> 00:34:12.659
Parris. Yeah, I just looked it up. So Twyla Parris

00:34:12.659 --> 00:34:18.780
has some, like, the choirs would sing Twyla Parris'

00:34:18.920 --> 00:34:25.019
music, and it was. Okay. I'm just saying. She's

00:34:25.019 --> 00:34:29.679
from Fort Worth. Oh, yeah. No, she's a Texas

00:34:29.679 --> 00:34:37.800
girl. Carmen. She's great. You're going to judge

00:34:37.800 --> 00:34:40.360
the crap out of me when you find out Carmen's

00:34:40.360 --> 00:34:46.719
stuff, but I'm telling you. That must be the

00:34:46.719 --> 00:34:49.260
wrong guy. I mean, it looks like he'd be the

00:34:49.260 --> 00:34:51.489
right. age for the time frame although it looks

00:34:51.489 --> 00:34:54.050
like he's passed away but it says american singer

00:34:54.050 --> 00:34:58.710
and rapper yeah really yeah i don't know i don't

00:34:58.710 --> 00:35:00.710
know that i would call it's more like spoken

00:35:00.710 --> 00:35:04.630
word than it is rap i don't think i knew that

00:35:04.630 --> 00:35:09.730
he was uh dead yeah it says he died in 2021 that's

00:35:09.730 --> 00:35:12.389
he has a song called satan bite the dust yes

00:35:12.389 --> 00:35:17.489
okay who's in the house who's in the house jc

00:35:17.489 --> 00:35:23.320
yeah Tell me who, who, who, who, who. Tell me

00:35:23.320 --> 00:35:28.599
who's in the house. J .C. Oh, my gosh. I'm just

00:35:28.599 --> 00:35:31.739
saying, and if you look this guy up, you're going

00:35:31.739 --> 00:35:37.920
to understand. But the one that always got me,

00:35:37.980 --> 00:35:45.179
the champion was everybody's whatever song for

00:35:45.179 --> 00:35:50.300
a long time there. Lazarus come forth. That one

00:35:50.300 --> 00:35:55.079
will get you. Okay. And then, oh, where's the

00:35:55.079 --> 00:36:01.119
other one? We need America again has the, we

00:36:01.119 --> 00:36:04.639
need God in America again. You know, this was

00:36:04.639 --> 00:36:11.579
the, he was responding to prayer being taken

00:36:11.579 --> 00:36:14.760
out of schools. Okay. Gosh, where's the other

00:36:14.760 --> 00:36:23.219
one? Is it the courtroom? I think he did one

00:36:23.219 --> 00:36:26.260
that was like the, you know, the videos that

00:36:26.260 --> 00:36:28.400
everybody played about the, you know, if you

00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:30.800
were in a car wreck, you know, you're drinking

00:36:30.800 --> 00:36:32.719
with your buddies and you die in a car wreck

00:36:32.719 --> 00:36:34.480
and then do you go to heaven or hell? It was

00:36:34.480 --> 00:36:37.860
a lot of stuff like that. Okay. Anyway. Okay.

00:36:38.519 --> 00:36:41.829
I'm having a hard time. Looking at some of these.

00:36:43.010 --> 00:36:46.170
Anyway, there was a lot. And I will tell you,

00:36:46.210 --> 00:36:53.969
our youth group made a music video with I Pledge

00:36:53.969 --> 00:36:59.570
Allegiance to the Lamb, which was Ray Boltz.

00:37:00.269 --> 00:37:05.230
Name sounds kind of familiar. Ray Boltz was a

00:37:05.230 --> 00:37:17.019
Christian artist. He came out of the closet in

00:37:17.019 --> 00:37:28.159
the 90s. Oh. In the 90s? I don't know. I must

00:37:28.159 --> 00:37:31.280
be looking at the wrong Ray Bolts because it

00:37:31.280 --> 00:37:36.119
says his spouse was Carol Bolts, which is a lady.

00:37:36.119 --> 00:37:38.579
Oh, that's her. So he came out of the closet

00:37:38.579 --> 00:37:44.820
as somebody that struggled with homosexuality.

00:37:44.820 --> 00:37:48.420
Okay. He was a Christian, so he... Okay, fair.

00:37:51.099 --> 00:37:53.380
I don't know exactly how all that went, but it

00:37:53.380 --> 00:37:57.460
was... Because, again, I was a kid, and I didn't

00:37:57.460 --> 00:38:00.019
care at all about any of that. He's still alive,

00:38:00.239 --> 00:38:06.369
but he was a really good melody. I don't know

00:38:06.369 --> 00:38:09.409
how much of the actual composition for his music

00:38:09.409 --> 00:38:12.829
he did, but I pledge allegiance to the lamb.

00:38:13.590 --> 00:38:17.349
Just saying. Okay. We made a music video. I had

00:38:17.349 --> 00:38:29.730
a solo. I was 13. Still had my little soprano

00:38:29.730 --> 00:38:34.260
voice. Okay. Yikes. I feel like I need to say,

00:38:34.340 --> 00:38:36.559
Mama Redfern, if you're listening, send that

00:38:36.559 --> 00:38:41.619
in. No. Surely she doesn't have it. She does

00:38:41.619 --> 00:38:45.219
have Bethlehem AD, I think, which was like a...

00:38:45.219 --> 00:38:49.400
We always did a youth... The youth choir was

00:38:49.400 --> 00:38:52.699
a big deal in our church growing up. Choir in

00:38:52.699 --> 00:38:56.079
general. Anything musical, we had a big adult

00:38:56.079 --> 00:39:00.679
choir. We had a big youth choir. We did big anthems

00:39:00.679 --> 00:39:04.989
and... Big productions for Christmas and Easter.

00:39:05.949 --> 00:39:08.010
Actually, I don't think we really did Easter.

00:39:08.110 --> 00:39:11.690
We did a lot of Christmas. But the student choir

00:39:11.690 --> 00:39:17.889
put on a production one time called Bethlehem

00:39:17.889 --> 00:39:25.090
A .D. when I was a young high schooler. And I'm

00:39:25.090 --> 00:39:29.210
just saying, I was really good in it. Okay. I'll

00:39:29.210 --> 00:39:31.780
take your word on it. About what it would be

00:39:31.780 --> 00:39:36.239
like if Jesus was born now. Now. Okay. So I was

00:39:36.239 --> 00:39:39.000
one of the shepherds, which were car mechanics.

00:39:39.599 --> 00:39:46.039
Okay. And brought the house down. Okay. Me and

00:39:46.039 --> 00:39:54.940
my buddy Brian. Anyway. Okay. Yeah. We've gone

00:39:54.940 --> 00:39:57.840
way too far into the. Yes, we did. Other stuff

00:39:57.840 --> 00:40:00.300
here. I don't even know how we. Got back on that.

00:40:00.480 --> 00:40:03.500
Oh, it was the technology and then old music

00:40:03.500 --> 00:40:07.840
and what we were listening to, and I was not

00:40:07.840 --> 00:40:10.900
listening to anything y 'all would really care

00:40:10.900 --> 00:40:16.059
about. Anyway. So in terms of keeping the church

00:40:16.059 --> 00:40:18.360
legal. In terms of keeping the church legal.

00:40:18.380 --> 00:40:21.920
What are you specifically doing around audio

00:40:21.920 --> 00:40:27.210
and video? Okay, so this has changed a lot. as

00:40:27.210 --> 00:40:30.030
well because you know in the beginning what we

00:40:30.030 --> 00:40:33.349
were really in the beginning whenever i became

00:40:33.349 --> 00:40:37.809
cognizant of this as a thing you know any kind

00:40:37.809 --> 00:40:42.809
of protection for intellectual property i've

00:40:42.809 --> 00:40:46.190
always been really um tried to be really mindful

00:40:46.190 --> 00:40:49.289
as someone who was a musician i didn't really

00:40:49.289 --> 00:40:53.070
have a lot of aspiration i mean anybody who picks

00:40:53.070 --> 00:40:57.420
up a guitar or drums or start singing in any

00:40:57.420 --> 00:41:04.880
kind of, uh, I don't know, in front of people

00:41:04.880 --> 00:41:09.420
type way. There's your, there's going to be thoughts

00:41:09.420 --> 00:41:14.679
of like recording or traveling and you got to

00:41:14.679 --> 00:41:18.840
analyze, excuse me, all of that. And I never

00:41:18.840 --> 00:41:21.320
really like all of that stuff. Of course I thought

00:41:21.320 --> 00:41:25.400
about, but at the same time, I always, I was

00:41:25.400 --> 00:41:27.559
pretty cognizant of the fact that I was not good

00:41:27.559 --> 00:41:30.739
enough to really do any of those things. I really

00:41:30.739 --> 00:41:35.639
wanted to focus. I felt like my gifting laid

00:41:35.639 --> 00:41:42.420
more with being local and helping people who

00:41:42.420 --> 00:41:46.800
were more in my area. Not a whole lot of reason

00:41:46.800 --> 00:41:50.900
to record. Definitely no reason to go travel

00:41:50.900 --> 00:41:56.039
anywhere. But being a musician, I was always

00:41:56.039 --> 00:41:59.059
very sensitive to and had a lot of friends who

00:41:59.059 --> 00:42:04.239
were artists, who I would say the word artist

00:42:04.239 --> 00:42:10.360
applied to, and wanting to make sure that I was

00:42:10.360 --> 00:42:14.179
protecting people who were trying to make money

00:42:14.179 --> 00:42:20.000
off of intellectual property. And that's really,

00:42:20.139 --> 00:42:23.889
like, honestly, when you... When you're walking

00:42:23.889 --> 00:42:27.349
down that path, when you're trying to be mindful

00:42:27.349 --> 00:42:30.750
of that sort of thing, you can still make a whole

00:42:30.750 --> 00:42:33.829
lot of mistakes. Sure. Because not all of it

00:42:33.829 --> 00:42:37.389
is intuitive, and it really doesn't make sense

00:42:37.389 --> 00:42:40.650
who gets money for what. No. None of that makes

00:42:40.650 --> 00:42:45.429
any sense to me. Nope. Looking at you, Spotify.

00:42:47.070 --> 00:42:50.130
I remember having a real problem whenever everybody

00:42:50.130 --> 00:42:52.750
showed up at Pine Cove wanting to use Spotify,

00:42:52.989 --> 00:42:55.369
and I was like, I get it. This tool is great

00:42:55.369 --> 00:42:57.650
for you, but they're not paying artists anything

00:42:57.650 --> 00:43:00.630
or very little, and so I don't think we should

00:43:00.630 --> 00:43:02.510
do this because we have artists who come here,

00:43:02.650 --> 00:43:05.010
and if they see that we're using Spotify, if

00:43:05.010 --> 00:43:06.269
they know anything about it, they're probably

00:43:06.269 --> 00:43:09.630
going to get frustrated. Turns out they might

00:43:09.630 --> 00:43:12.550
not have even known or cared as much as I did,

00:43:12.630 --> 00:43:15.349
but still, it just did not seem like the right

00:43:15.349 --> 00:43:21.440
thing to do. Then again, neither was using Apple

00:43:21.440 --> 00:43:24.480
Music for, I mean, they were better, but not

00:43:24.480 --> 00:43:28.380
what it should be. And it never will be. I remember

00:43:28.380 --> 00:43:32.199
hearing Prince talk about this because he was

00:43:32.199 --> 00:43:37.360
on a late night show where Mariah Carey had evidently

00:43:37.360 --> 00:43:40.619
just signed some ginormous contract. And he was

00:43:40.619 --> 00:43:42.079
like, oh, y 'all think that was a good contract?

00:43:46.409 --> 00:43:48.469
and he was like let me break this down for you

00:43:48.469 --> 00:43:54.570
and he was like if i if i make an album and you

00:43:54.570 --> 00:44:00.230
like are gonna uh distribute it for me how much

00:44:00.230 --> 00:44:02.849
do you think that i should get of that like so

00:44:02.849 --> 00:44:06.449
an an album costs and i think he was like i don't

00:44:06.449 --> 00:44:09.949
know twelve dollars it was like i don't maybe

00:44:09.949 --> 00:44:12.210
eighteen dollars i can't remember what the like

00:44:14.159 --> 00:44:15.719
And I don't remember if they were talking about

00:44:15.719 --> 00:44:18.760
a song or, you know, either way. Like, you can

00:44:18.760 --> 00:44:21.099
look this up. And Prince, of course, is going

00:44:21.099 --> 00:44:23.300
to do a way better job than me. And he basically

00:44:23.300 --> 00:44:28.619
walked the Tonight Show host. I don't remember

00:44:28.619 --> 00:44:31.039
which Tonight Show it was. Well, I don't know

00:44:31.039 --> 00:44:35.380
if it was actually Leno or if it was, oh, my

00:44:35.380 --> 00:44:39.619
gosh, Letterman or, I mean, maybe Conan. Conan

00:44:39.619 --> 00:44:42.599
O 'Brien. But one of those guys, he's walking

00:44:42.599 --> 00:44:44.780
through, like, this is what that would look like

00:44:44.780 --> 00:44:47.619
if I, if, cause everybody's like half, like that

00:44:47.619 --> 00:44:49.219
makes sense. Like the artists would get half

00:44:49.219 --> 00:44:53.059
like, okay. So that means that you then would,

00:44:53.159 --> 00:44:57.260
you know, earn this much money. All you have

00:44:57.260 --> 00:45:00.619
to do is, is sell this many albums. And I, I

00:45:00.619 --> 00:45:02.840
mean, he, he said some ridiculous number of like

00:45:02.840 --> 00:45:05.239
albums, but evidently for like Prince and Mariah

00:45:05.239 --> 00:45:07.760
Carey, this is a very small number of albums

00:45:07.760 --> 00:45:10.199
like to do a million or 3 million or something

00:45:10.199 --> 00:45:14.150
like that. And he's like, Whatever deal she just

00:45:14.150 --> 00:45:20.389
made paled in comparison to the numbers that

00:45:20.389 --> 00:45:25.130
you would get if you were actually making half

00:45:25.130 --> 00:45:29.570
on every record. It is pennies for the amount

00:45:29.570 --> 00:45:32.329
of work that's done. And I'm not trying to like,

00:45:32.449 --> 00:45:39.389
I don't know, downplay what everybody else is

00:45:39.389 --> 00:45:43.869
doing in the music industry. I'm going to get

00:45:43.869 --> 00:45:45.789
real close to the mic here for this part. Oh,

00:45:45.869 --> 00:45:52.849
but you've got no job without the person making

00:45:52.849 --> 00:45:59.329
the music. Yeah. Can we just be real honest about

00:45:59.329 --> 00:46:04.050
that? Like you don't get to make money off this.

00:46:06.030 --> 00:46:11.949
If this person doesn't exist. True. And so maybe

00:46:11.949 --> 00:46:13.820
they should get more. That's all I'm saying.

00:46:14.360 --> 00:46:19.659
Than every other person involved. We talk about

00:46:19.659 --> 00:46:23.179
intellectual property. Musicians, it feels like,

00:46:23.260 --> 00:46:26.440
and I'm sure there's some other part that I'm

00:46:26.440 --> 00:46:30.199
not giving enough credit to or another industry

00:46:30.199 --> 00:46:35.659
that gets raked across the coals more than musicians.

00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:39.320
the way that it happens with musicians really

00:46:39.320 --> 00:46:42.320
is troubling to me. And all of that to say, what

00:46:42.320 --> 00:46:47.199
I've tried to do is do this correctly in order

00:46:47.199 --> 00:46:49.840
to make sure that that happens the way it's supposed

00:46:49.840 --> 00:46:54.280
to, because then at least they get something.

00:46:55.559 --> 00:47:00.400
So back in the day, you know, I talked about

00:47:00.400 --> 00:47:04.119
how, when we were singing hymns, all you had

00:47:04.119 --> 00:47:08.179
to really do was buy the hymnal. And then with

00:47:08.179 --> 00:47:13.239
each hymnal that you had, there was a percentage

00:47:13.239 --> 00:47:19.219
that went to the hymn writers that were not public

00:47:19.219 --> 00:47:22.380
domain by this point, which a lot of them were.

00:47:23.659 --> 00:47:31.019
Anyway, there's a lot to it. But when all of

00:47:31.019 --> 00:47:36.139
this became digital, which is when I really started,

00:47:36.619 --> 00:47:43.260
I'm doing this for a job. Really, the only name

00:47:43.260 --> 00:47:45.840
in that game, and it's the same people that were

00:47:45.840 --> 00:47:48.719
making the hymnals, I think, before, is CCLI,

00:47:48.980 --> 00:47:53.480
Christian Copyright Licensing or something like

00:47:53.480 --> 00:47:58.059
that. And so they've got rights to all of this

00:47:58.059 --> 00:48:04.019
music, and they will sell you the ability to...

00:48:05.519 --> 00:48:10.199
You know, you can, you had to, at the beginning,

00:48:10.239 --> 00:48:12.380
it was just like, if you used it in a Sunday

00:48:12.380 --> 00:48:14.199
morning, you had to, you had to say how many

00:48:14.199 --> 00:48:19.239
copies you printed for whatever musicians or

00:48:19.239 --> 00:48:21.639
choir members. And you had to say of what kind

00:48:21.639 --> 00:48:25.780
it was. Are you printing the, you know, SATB,

00:48:25.780 --> 00:48:28.920
sorry, soprano, alto, tenor, bass, like music?

00:48:29.119 --> 00:48:31.969
Are you printing the piano? whatever are you

00:48:31.969 --> 00:48:33.690
printing lead sheets are you reading are you

00:48:33.690 --> 00:48:36.469
printing chord sheets and i can't remember all

00:48:36.469 --> 00:48:38.550
the different like ways that you would say what

00:48:38.550 --> 00:48:40.829
you were doing and how many you were doing of

00:48:40.829 --> 00:48:43.070
each one i was always in small churches so this

00:48:43.070 --> 00:48:45.969
wasn't really that big of a deal it was a very

00:48:45.969 --> 00:48:47.909
administrative task but you would do that for

00:48:47.909 --> 00:48:50.550
each song that you played on a sunday morning

00:48:50.550 --> 00:48:53.750
and you would pray that you had picked public

00:48:53.750 --> 00:48:57.329
domain because you just like it's just so much

00:48:57.329 --> 00:49:00.429
less to worry about like you don't have to do

00:49:01.159 --> 00:49:05.139
any of this but um the point is then the songs

00:49:05.139 --> 00:49:08.360
that um you you send in these reports like you

00:49:08.360 --> 00:49:12.519
you pay for the whole thing and you don't you

00:49:12.519 --> 00:49:14.900
don't really you pay because of the size of your

00:49:14.900 --> 00:49:17.260
church yeah um is basically what you're paying

00:49:17.260 --> 00:49:20.320
a license for the size of your church no big

00:49:20.320 --> 00:49:24.300
deal but then they would ask you to track all

00:49:24.300 --> 00:49:32.679
these things in order to then reward the you

00:49:32.679 --> 00:49:36.239
know, songwriters that were, were being used

00:49:36.239 --> 00:49:39.840
more often. Correct. And it was especially important

00:49:39.840 --> 00:49:42.920
if you printed something out. Well, then the

00:49:42.920 --> 00:49:47.480
iPad shows up and now they're like, all right,

00:49:47.559 --> 00:49:51.739
how are we going to do this? And so then they

00:49:51.739 --> 00:49:55.239
start trying to figure out, okay, so we're going

00:49:55.239 --> 00:49:59.719
to, we're going to sell licenses to these and

00:49:59.719 --> 00:50:03.679
how many times they're accessed can be recorded

00:50:03.679 --> 00:50:08.840
um based on whatever software you're using to

00:50:08.840 --> 00:50:15.519
then bring them in and like it got so convoluted

00:50:15.519 --> 00:50:17.260
there at the beginning of them trying to figure

00:50:17.260 --> 00:50:20.480
this out that it was like i'm out like i i want

00:50:20.480 --> 00:50:23.480
to help i really do i i'll tell you what songs

00:50:23.480 --> 00:50:25.679
i'm playing but really i'm really i'm not like

00:50:25.679 --> 00:50:30.019
we're not i don't have time Correct. To figure

00:50:30.019 --> 00:50:32.659
all of this out for you. Like, I'm going to tell

00:50:32.659 --> 00:50:36.599
you that I'm doing these songs. The huge majority

00:50:36.599 --> 00:50:40.679
of the time now, that part is actually pretty

00:50:40.679 --> 00:50:52.719
easy. There are most of the software that's used

00:50:52.719 --> 00:50:59.679
to... distribute songs to bands that are all

00:50:59.679 --> 00:51:04.880
playing together um that that can that can count

00:51:04.880 --> 00:51:08.880
those um and that makes that makes perfect sense

00:51:08.880 --> 00:51:11.199
like that all this is digital there should be

00:51:11.199 --> 00:51:13.739
a record of this absolutely i shouldn't have

00:51:13.739 --> 00:51:17.599
to say well i bought five copies of this song

00:51:17.599 --> 00:51:25.579
because did you or do you just have you know,

00:51:25.619 --> 00:51:31.099
an infinity license for that song. Well, I didn't

00:51:31.099 --> 00:51:35.360
report infinity. I reported five. And so really

00:51:35.360 --> 00:51:40.679
I've only got five. It got so weird. Now, not

00:51:40.679 --> 00:51:43.219
only do you have to have, you know, either CCLI,

00:51:43.480 --> 00:51:49.880
multitracks, like all of this then got more complicated

00:51:49.880 --> 00:51:52.920
because then in 2020, everything went online.

00:51:53.599 --> 00:51:56.300
And it wasn't just the churches that were big

00:51:56.300 --> 00:52:04.360
enough to have some sort of TV ministry or whatever.

00:52:04.500 --> 00:52:07.679
It was everybody has to be online or your church

00:52:07.679 --> 00:52:10.519
doesn't have a presence because nobody's coming.

00:52:12.820 --> 00:52:17.639
Then it became, whoa, you have a license for...

00:52:21.289 --> 00:52:25.130
doing all of this stuff in a in a service with

00:52:25.130 --> 00:52:28.469
people who are present you don't have a license

00:52:28.469 --> 00:52:31.269
for streaming streaming yeah so now you need

00:52:31.269 --> 00:52:33.949
a license for doing um all of this with people

00:52:33.949 --> 00:52:36.510
who are present and then you need a license for

00:52:36.510 --> 00:52:41.349
streaming yep and then you need another license

00:52:41.349 --> 00:52:46.900
to leave it up yes so This is where you see,

00:52:47.119 --> 00:52:50.280
I mean, I've gotten a lot of feedback on this

00:52:50.280 --> 00:52:52.460
as well from different people in our church.

00:52:52.699 --> 00:52:55.880
We have an in -person service, of course, now

00:52:55.880 --> 00:53:00.920
that we're past COVID stuff. We still stream,

00:53:01.119 --> 00:53:04.099
and we have licenses for both of those things.

00:53:04.300 --> 00:53:07.000
What we don't have a license for is leaving anything

00:53:07.000 --> 00:53:14.800
up. So what we do is we... are in person and

00:53:14.800 --> 00:53:18.179
we stream and then as soon as that uh stream

00:53:18.179 --> 00:53:24.860
goes to you know past present or whatever we

00:53:24.860 --> 00:53:29.860
cut the recording of it down to the sermon yeah

00:53:29.860 --> 00:53:32.139
in as timely a fashion as we can i'm talking

00:53:32.139 --> 00:53:36.059
less than a day we we cut that down and we cut

00:53:36.059 --> 00:53:38.519
the music out so it's just a sermon so the only

00:53:38.519 --> 00:53:40.880
thing that lives on our website is the sermons

00:53:40.880 --> 00:53:44.429
correct um No, I've not gone back and done all

00:53:44.429 --> 00:53:48.989
of the services that we did before all of this.

00:53:51.050 --> 00:53:53.909
That's what the intern's for. Please have mercy.

00:53:54.090 --> 00:53:58.409
We don't have interns. Can't pay interns. No,

00:53:58.469 --> 00:54:02.210
intern's not a paid position. Yeah, no, that's

00:54:02.210 --> 00:54:08.989
called a, never mind. But I've talked to lawyers

00:54:08.989 --> 00:54:13.420
over this. I have tried as hard as I could to

00:54:13.420 --> 00:54:18.079
not just, not just do the spirit of the law,

00:54:18.159 --> 00:54:20.440
but the letter of the law and like all of these

00:54:20.440 --> 00:54:23.239
different things. And it's always been one of

00:54:23.239 --> 00:54:25.860
those, like, I mean, if somebody comes after

00:54:25.860 --> 00:54:27.739
us, they're going to come after us. Correct.

00:54:27.860 --> 00:54:31.500
And that's really hard, but we're trying to do

00:54:31.500 --> 00:54:34.139
this the right way. Yeah. I feel like if somebody

00:54:34.139 --> 00:54:36.480
came after us today, just be like, well, my job

00:54:36.480 --> 00:54:39.909
for the next. you know the rest of the year is

00:54:39.909 --> 00:54:43.329
going to be to a bunch of editing try to do compliance

00:54:43.329 --> 00:54:48.750
yeah um as fast as possible yeah um and until

00:54:48.750 --> 00:54:50.670
then we'll just take everything down yeah and

00:54:50.670 --> 00:54:52.349
that's the hard part about this is you don't

00:54:52.349 --> 00:54:54.110
want to lose your archive like you don't want

00:54:54.110 --> 00:54:56.329
to lose all of the stuff that you put out there

00:54:56.329 --> 00:55:01.750
but you might have to because it's not anyway

00:55:01.750 --> 00:55:06.489
yeah the good news is places like facebook will

00:55:06.489 --> 00:55:11.400
just They're fine with letting you have your

00:55:11.400 --> 00:55:15.380
songs going during the live stream. As soon as

00:55:15.380 --> 00:55:19.539
that thing goes public, all of the little bots

00:55:19.539 --> 00:55:21.840
attack and are like, we own that, we own that,

00:55:21.860 --> 00:55:23.480
we own that. I'm like, great, mute it. I don't

00:55:23.480 --> 00:55:31.199
care. I go to the ones that stay up and I delete

00:55:31.199 --> 00:55:36.019
there. That we attach to, YouTube, Vimeo, we

00:55:36.019 --> 00:55:39.489
edit all of that stuff. And then we bring it

00:55:39.489 --> 00:55:44.570
down. And that's not even counting CVLI, which

00:55:44.570 --> 00:55:52.230
is the new hotness for trying to pay for licensing.

00:55:53.530 --> 00:55:58.530
Because pastors like sermon illustrations. Yes,

00:55:58.570 --> 00:56:01.550
they do. And movies give some great sermon illustrations.

00:56:02.090 --> 00:56:04.730
Correct. And so having to pay for that stuff

00:56:04.730 --> 00:56:09.130
and pay for it. Be in the room and pay for it

00:56:09.130 --> 00:56:13.690
to be live streamed and pay for it to live on.

00:56:13.750 --> 00:56:18.210
Like, you know, it's all a different thing. And

00:56:18.210 --> 00:56:22.989
like, again, like I'm on the side of wanting

00:56:22.989 --> 00:56:26.369
people to get paid for what they have done. I'm

00:56:26.369 --> 00:56:31.349
not trying to rob anybody. There is an element

00:56:31.349 --> 00:56:36.980
of being so tired. Yeah. That it's like. I mean,

00:56:37.000 --> 00:56:38.760
yeah, just tell me how much we owe and we'll

00:56:38.760 --> 00:56:42.780
figure out how to send you a check because I

00:56:42.780 --> 00:56:47.199
don't have the margin for this in my life. No.

00:56:48.340 --> 00:56:50.480
Listen, I'm trying to keep my kids out of jail.

00:56:50.980 --> 00:56:57.039
Yeah. Don't come at me. Yeah. Yeah, we use CCLI

00:56:57.039 --> 00:57:02.699
as well, but even where that gets weird when

00:57:02.699 --> 00:57:07.079
you start looking into the verbiage. It says

00:57:07.079 --> 00:57:12.679
that it's good for the service. So when you look

00:57:12.679 --> 00:57:15.820
at a Christian camp, you're going, what defines

00:57:15.820 --> 00:57:20.880
a service? Exactly. Is that just the club time?

00:57:22.500 --> 00:57:30.800
How is that for mealtimes? What about it's raining

00:57:30.800 --> 00:57:34.489
and you've got to get people inside? It gets

00:57:34.489 --> 00:57:37.969
really blurry really, really fast. And I will

00:57:37.969 --> 00:57:51.090
tell you, there's a lot of... That's not as gray

00:57:51.090 --> 00:57:53.750
as we want it to be. What's actually written

00:57:53.750 --> 00:58:01.869
there is pretty... specific about what this can

00:58:01.869 --> 00:58:04.909
be used for and what it can't. And we're not

00:58:04.909 --> 00:58:10.449
doing that. Yeah. So it's like, there's, there's

00:58:10.449 --> 00:58:12.989
a lot of, there's a lot of trying to figure that

00:58:12.989 --> 00:58:16.710
out. And I think trying to, I think, I mean,

00:58:16.769 --> 00:58:21.889
you know, honestly, again, I'm not trying to.

00:58:22.269 --> 00:58:24.869
make somebody else make money inside of that.

00:58:24.889 --> 00:58:27.570
I'm not trying to add another person to pay inside

00:58:27.570 --> 00:58:29.929
of this, but it does seem like there is some

00:58:29.929 --> 00:58:37.969
sort of, uh, hole in this. That is the person

00:58:37.969 --> 00:58:41.389
who is making this simpler for somebody who's

00:58:41.389 --> 00:58:44.769
just trying to do it right, but doesn't know

00:58:44.769 --> 00:58:48.150
what, what they're looking for, um, in terms

00:58:48.150 --> 00:58:52.960
of this. So you look at different, um, I mean,

00:58:52.980 --> 00:58:55.219
that was the hardest thing for me inside of...

00:58:55.219 --> 00:59:05.380
In a worship service, CCLI works because you're

00:59:05.380 --> 00:59:12.360
paying for the thing that makes it possible for

00:59:12.360 --> 00:59:20.659
all of the musicians to be able to make this

00:59:20.659 --> 00:59:28.610
song happen. I'm not talking at all about playing

00:59:28.610 --> 00:59:38.690
music from a computer over a system that everybody

00:59:38.690 --> 00:59:43.550
can hear. Because technically that's not what

00:59:43.550 --> 00:59:47.909
any of these things are for. Now, there is a

00:59:47.909 --> 00:59:55.289
provision for... And again, you have to pay money

00:59:55.289 --> 00:59:58.849
for it. But there is a provision for inside of

00:59:58.849 --> 01:00:04.489
worship services being able to use songs. At

01:00:04.489 --> 01:00:09.929
a camp does not seem like mealtime is a worship

01:00:09.929 --> 01:00:17.090
service. No. Sure they pray. Yes. But like, what

01:00:17.090 --> 01:00:21.489
are we doing? Yep. And that's so hard to like,

01:00:21.489 --> 01:00:24.670
then be the guy who has to tell everybody like,

01:00:24.730 --> 01:00:28.929
look, we got to figure out a way to do this.

01:00:28.929 --> 01:00:34.530
Like, like imagine we're a, we're a Starbucks.

01:00:35.829 --> 01:00:38.510
Imagine we want a playlist playing while people

01:00:38.510 --> 01:00:44.769
are sipping on their mocha. What do we have to

01:00:44.769 --> 01:00:47.889
do? Yeah. And it's a very different world. Absolutely.

01:00:53.630 --> 01:00:56.989
The one interesting story I can share on this

01:00:56.989 --> 01:00:59.670
comes from Jason. And I don't know if he may

01:00:59.670 --> 01:01:01.250
have told you this before. I don't think so.

01:01:01.489 --> 01:01:07.110
But at one of his dad's, I guess it was a restaurant

01:01:07.110 --> 01:01:10.489
maybe, that had a gift shop that they played

01:01:10.489 --> 01:01:13.369
music. And a guy was in there and was asking

01:01:13.369 --> 01:01:16.570
about the music that they were playing. And then

01:01:16.570 --> 01:01:21.750
he just kind of let in with like, so how are

01:01:21.750 --> 01:01:25.050
you doing that legally and his dad was able to

01:01:25.050 --> 01:01:28.670
go oh here's the cd we sell it in the gift shop

01:01:28.670 --> 01:01:32.250
yeah and then the guy knew oh i don't have any

01:01:32.250 --> 01:01:36.050
where to go here right and left whereas if they

01:01:36.050 --> 01:01:37.949
had just simply bought a cd and were playing

01:01:37.949 --> 01:01:40.369
it right he thought he was about to ready to

01:01:40.369 --> 01:01:43.889
be like oh yeah i gotcha so that's kind of an

01:01:43.889 --> 01:01:46.809
interesting story of some of the ways that you

01:01:46.809 --> 01:01:50.489
can cover yourself to some degree oh there's

01:01:50.489 --> 01:01:53.989
plenty of people that are looking for a fight

01:01:53.989 --> 01:01:57.510
oh yeah um yeah and to me it's one of the biggest

01:01:57.510 --> 01:02:00.449
concerns that i have with what we do yeah because

01:02:00.449 --> 01:02:04.829
it's inevitable with the reach that pine cove

01:02:04.829 --> 01:02:08.030
has yeah that eventually someone's going to come

01:02:08.030 --> 01:02:09.829
on property and they're going to understand what

01:02:09.829 --> 01:02:11.929
we're doing and they're going to start poking

01:02:11.929 --> 01:02:14.489
around and asking questions And then we're going

01:02:14.489 --> 01:02:15.969
to see what happens. And some of them are going

01:02:15.969 --> 01:02:18.429
to be answerable and some of them are not. Correct.

01:02:18.650 --> 01:02:21.010
And that's the hard thing is like the number

01:02:21.010 --> 01:02:24.949
of like the variety, like the, where all these,

01:02:24.969 --> 01:02:27.590
all this music is coming from. There are plenty

01:02:27.590 --> 01:02:29.469
of them that are like, Oh yeah, no, we, that,

01:02:29.570 --> 01:02:33.789
that one is totally covered. Yeah. And then you're

01:02:33.789 --> 01:02:39.929
like, did you just play? Where'd you get that?

01:02:40.349 --> 01:02:44.239
Yeah. Back in the day, we tried to do a better

01:02:44.239 --> 01:02:47.500
job of that. Sorry. We tried to do a good job

01:02:47.500 --> 01:02:51.320
of that. I don't know what the status of that

01:02:51.320 --> 01:02:55.860
is now. I don't imagine it's gotten easier. But

01:02:55.860 --> 01:03:01.340
for online content, things that you get off of

01:03:01.340 --> 01:03:06.119
different things, maybe a YouTube video or something

01:03:06.119 --> 01:03:08.420
like that, you've got to purchase a license.

01:03:09.070 --> 01:03:11.849
Um, for the copyrighted music you wish to use

01:03:11.849 --> 01:03:16.590
in a public setting. Yep. Um, if you want to

01:03:16.590 --> 01:03:19.150
use public domain music, that's always an option.

01:03:20.050 --> 01:03:23.110
I think, you know, there's some really good public

01:03:23.110 --> 01:03:25.489
domain music. They've, they've basically entered

01:03:25.489 --> 01:03:28.349
into an agreement where, you know, you pay for

01:03:28.349 --> 01:03:32.869
this thing or you whatever, and you can use all

01:03:32.869 --> 01:03:36.449
of these, this different music. That's what it's

01:03:36.449 --> 01:03:40.929
there for. You can compose and use your own background

01:03:40.929 --> 01:03:44.949
music. That's something that you definitely own

01:03:44.949 --> 01:03:50.809
the rights to. You subscribe to or purchase music

01:03:50.809 --> 01:03:53.670
from a licensing service or the YouTube audio

01:03:53.670 --> 01:03:55.690
library. What I really appreciated about Pine

01:03:55.690 --> 01:03:58.789
Cove, and this was actually a friend of mine

01:03:58.789 --> 01:04:03.219
who... made this happen and then he when he went

01:04:03.219 --> 01:04:04.860
to get his master's one of the things that he

01:04:04.860 --> 01:04:07.260
really focused on was um copyright law inside

01:04:07.260 --> 01:04:12.579
of this but he would be the guy who panko was

01:04:12.579 --> 01:04:18.539
um one of the things that they really that they

01:04:18.539 --> 01:04:22.920
used to offer that was a i thought a big selling

01:04:22.920 --> 01:04:25.199
well not a selling point it was just a like it

01:04:25.199 --> 01:04:29.019
was a it was a nice thing They would do these

01:04:29.019 --> 01:04:34.960
videos for every week of camp. At every camp,

01:04:35.079 --> 01:04:38.460
they would do a video for the whole week where

01:04:38.460 --> 01:04:42.380
they would show all the kids, and they'd get

01:04:42.380 --> 01:04:44.420
as many kids in the video as they could, and

01:04:44.420 --> 01:04:50.119
they'd be fun and fast -paced. you know, then

01:04:50.119 --> 01:04:52.300
meaningful. And like, they would just try to

01:04:52.300 --> 01:04:54.440
do this range of emotions, but they always used

01:04:54.440 --> 01:04:59.760
a few songs for it. And I was always, I guess,

01:04:59.760 --> 01:05:05.260
skeptical inside of it. I was like, I'm not sure

01:05:05.260 --> 01:05:07.960
we're doing this the right way. But then I found

01:05:07.960 --> 01:05:11.340
out after being there for long enough, no, they

01:05:11.340 --> 01:05:14.599
reach out directly to the artists that they use

01:05:14.599 --> 01:05:19.989
for the videos for each of these. And it was

01:05:19.989 --> 01:05:23.869
the same one for the whole summer or the same

01:05:23.869 --> 01:05:26.389
songs for the whole summer, but different at

01:05:26.389 --> 01:05:29.510
each camp. Yep. And they would get permission

01:05:29.510 --> 01:05:31.769
to be able to use them in these videos. And this

01:05:31.769 --> 01:05:35.690
was back before they were online. This was, we're

01:05:35.690 --> 01:05:39.849
sending these VHSs and then DVDs home with these

01:05:39.849 --> 01:05:47.070
kids. I was really impressed with the ability

01:05:47.070 --> 01:05:53.309
to stay above board inside of that. Businesses,

01:05:53.309 --> 01:05:59.889
whenever you're trying to use background music

01:05:59.889 --> 01:06:02.869
in your place of business or something like that,

01:06:03.050 --> 01:06:07.929
you either have to obtain a public performance

01:06:07.929 --> 01:06:14.750
license, which is... You pay for an annual license.

01:06:15.050 --> 01:06:20.409
It's usually like BMI, ASCAP. ASCAP, yes. Or

01:06:20.409 --> 01:06:23.329
what's the other one? Yeah, there's kind of the

01:06:23.329 --> 01:06:30.469
big three. SE something. Anyway, and then you

01:06:30.469 --> 01:06:36.269
can play the whatever music. PRO, the Performing

01:06:36.269 --> 01:06:45.059
Rights Organization. Okay. Or you can get, like

01:06:45.059 --> 01:06:57.199
a recording license that would give you more

01:06:57.199 --> 01:07:01.460
rights to the music. That's not really, I don't

01:07:01.460 --> 01:07:03.320
think that that's the one that's done more often.

01:07:03.380 --> 01:07:06.800
I think usually the public performance, I think

01:07:06.800 --> 01:07:09.719
it's called the public performance license. Anyway.

01:07:13.580 --> 01:07:18.380
The publishing or the sound recording license

01:07:18.380 --> 01:07:22.300
is, or sound recording license? Anyway, those

01:07:22.300 --> 01:07:24.920
are the ones that like, that's the like legal

01:07:24.920 --> 01:07:29.139
agreement that Pine Cove would go into and get

01:07:29.139 --> 01:07:35.099
with the artist and the, you know, whoever actually

01:07:35.099 --> 01:07:37.539
owns the music because it's barely ever the artist.

01:07:37.780 --> 01:07:41.829
Yep. When Taylor Swift came out with that album

01:07:41.829 --> 01:07:44.909
that was like, what'd she call it? My version

01:07:44.909 --> 01:07:47.630
or something like that. Like she re -recorded

01:07:47.630 --> 01:07:50.909
all of her music so that she could own the masters

01:07:50.909 --> 01:07:56.170
instead of the, and then, and then she like re

01:07:56.170 --> 01:08:01.829
-released everything as, you know, I think it

01:08:01.829 --> 01:08:04.150
was like my version or something like that. It's

01:08:04.150 --> 01:08:06.150
funny because like fans went out and bought it.

01:08:07.090 --> 01:08:11.990
It's the same music that they already had. Except

01:08:11.990 --> 01:08:14.929
Taylor Swift owns the rights to it as opposed

01:08:14.929 --> 01:08:20.149
to whoever she had an agreement with. I mean,

01:08:20.189 --> 01:08:25.609
nothing against that at all, but it's kind of

01:08:25.609 --> 01:08:34.109
funny that that's the loophole here. Yeah. Is

01:08:34.109 --> 01:08:39.680
to be able to record and then own. It's not,

01:08:39.699 --> 01:08:42.680
I mean, you're not even, that was a weird thing.

01:08:42.720 --> 01:08:45.420
You remember the, um, did you hear about the

01:08:45.420 --> 01:08:52.260
Ed Sheeran, um, lawsuit? No. So somebody, um,

01:08:52.500 --> 01:08:57.359
and I don't, I don't know if it's the band or

01:08:57.359 --> 01:09:00.819
if it's just the, whoever again owns the rights

01:09:00.819 --> 01:09:04.510
to. some music. And I think it was like from

01:09:04.510 --> 01:09:07.670
the seventies or eighties, there was a song that

01:09:07.670 --> 01:09:13.590
sounded like one of his songs. Okay. And by sounded

01:09:13.590 --> 01:09:16.109
like, I mean, the chord progression was the same.

01:09:16.430 --> 01:09:20.609
Okay. And, and you can hear it. Like, I'm not,

01:09:20.630 --> 01:09:22.369
I'm not saying that you can't hear it. I'm not

01:09:22.369 --> 01:09:26.930
saying that the melody is. totally different

01:09:26.930 --> 01:09:29.850
and whatever i i mean you can hear the similarities

01:09:29.850 --> 01:09:32.130
if you like the show then how about donating

01:09:32.130 --> 01:09:34.270
will they save you money on therapy do you think

01:09:34.270 --> 01:09:37.409
you also listen to the whole song and you're

01:09:37.409 --> 01:09:40.810
like i don't think he ripped off your song like

01:09:40.810 --> 01:09:43.350
i don't know how to there's a section of it that

01:09:43.350 --> 01:09:50.930
kind of sounds similar sure so instead of like

01:09:50.930 --> 01:09:57.260
just settling Ed Sheeran goes to court and in

01:09:57.260 --> 01:10:02.020
front of the, um, I think it's like a jury and

01:10:02.020 --> 01:10:05.199
everything like in front of everybody whips out

01:10:05.199 --> 01:10:08.640
his little guitar. And it was like, you know,

01:10:08.659 --> 01:10:11.739
this is what we're being whatever. And he's like,

01:10:11.779 --> 01:10:17.100
this is a song that they're telling me is, uh,

01:10:17.340 --> 01:10:20.960
the original song. This is what mine sounds like.

01:10:20.979 --> 01:10:23.470
And he played like he's this guy's an incredible

01:10:23.470 --> 01:10:27.569
musician he plays his song and then he like is

01:10:27.569 --> 01:10:30.649
like but these are not the only songs that have

01:10:30.649 --> 01:10:36.170
this progression progression inside of them and

01:10:36.170 --> 01:10:40.189
he starts playing like i mean it's funny because

01:10:40.189 --> 01:10:43.250
christian music gets accused of this all the

01:10:43.250 --> 01:10:46.949
time you're just playing one four five six like

01:10:46.949 --> 01:10:49.750
one or you know some combination of one four

01:10:49.750 --> 01:10:53.199
five and six chords and that's it and i'm like

01:10:53.199 --> 01:10:59.020
great yeah there there is a like in every chord

01:10:59.020 --> 01:11:02.399
progression or in every uh scale there is a one

01:11:02.399 --> 01:11:08.000
a major one sorry a major uh the the one chord

01:11:08.000 --> 01:11:14.319
is a major chord the two chord is um minor usually

01:11:14.319 --> 01:11:18.460
minor three usually minor four major five major

01:11:18.460 --> 01:11:23.659
six minor seven is like augmented and then back

01:11:23.659 --> 01:11:27.380
to one the chords that everybody really like

01:11:27.380 --> 01:11:36.720
at least in western pop and i would say i not

01:11:36.720 --> 01:11:41.000
to like throw everybody else completely off if

01:11:41.000 --> 01:11:44.260
you're not playing jazz you're usually playing

01:11:44.260 --> 01:11:47.869
one four five and six um and there's a few different

01:11:47.869 --> 01:11:50.489
like oh we're more musical than that or whatever

01:11:50.489 --> 01:11:54.529
the backbone of most like catchy things have

01:11:54.529 --> 01:11:59.489
this 154 whatever to him and so he plays all

01:11:59.489 --> 01:12:01.489
of these different songs like he goes from his

01:12:01.489 --> 01:12:03.630
song like that first song into his song into

01:12:03.630 --> 01:12:08.289
like people get ready there's a train coming

01:12:08.289 --> 01:12:13.210
and then like uh all these different that all

01:12:13.210 --> 01:12:14.989
have the same progression. He's like, you can't

01:12:14.989 --> 01:12:22.369
own this progression. It's in too much. And it's

01:12:22.369 --> 01:12:27.029
that like, how in the world are we supposed to

01:12:27.029 --> 01:12:33.949
have intellectual property? Number one, when

01:12:33.949 --> 01:12:37.750
you got people that are that talented, they're

01:12:37.750 --> 01:12:39.369
like, no, I'll just play all of it right now,

01:12:39.449 --> 01:12:41.390
right here in front of you. What do you want?

01:12:41.920 --> 01:12:47.779
Yeah. And then when it's like, there's a reason

01:12:47.779 --> 01:12:50.840
that this is catchy. It's because it's kind of,

01:12:50.840 --> 01:12:53.180
it kind of reminds you of something that you

01:12:53.180 --> 01:12:57.899
know. Correct. And everybody has these like ties

01:12:57.899 --> 01:13:01.520
back to, I don't know, twinkle, twinkle little

01:13:01.520 --> 01:13:04.539
star. Yeah. It all seems to follow some type

01:13:04.539 --> 01:13:08.600
of a melodic template. Yeah. There's patterns.

01:13:08.779 --> 01:13:12.520
Yep. And. people who are really good at patterns

01:13:12.520 --> 01:13:18.520
can see even the vague ones yep and for taylor

01:13:18.520 --> 01:13:20.359
swift every song just has to do with how the

01:13:20.359 --> 01:13:24.840
guy did you wrong so help me and yet i have a

01:13:24.840 --> 01:13:28.600
friend who's like so like she's such a good songwriter

01:13:28.600 --> 01:13:31.800
and she's so amazing and i'm not trying to detract

01:13:31.800 --> 01:13:34.829
from taylor swift like i don't I don't have anything

01:13:34.829 --> 01:13:37.329
against her. I think that she is really talented.

01:13:37.630 --> 01:13:41.609
I think you're a songwriter. That's not an easy

01:13:41.609 --> 01:13:46.270
thing to do. Sure. Also, I'm not listening to

01:13:46.270 --> 01:13:50.729
anything that you write because, oh my gosh,

01:13:50.970 --> 01:13:53.310
this is why I stopped listening to country music.

01:13:53.489 --> 01:13:59.329
I don't know. Stop it. Play it backwards and

01:13:59.329 --> 01:14:02.949
you get everything back. Yeah. Yeah. But I don't.

01:14:03.590 --> 01:14:05.170
I just don't want to hear about your breakup.

01:14:05.310 --> 01:14:08.050
I don't want to hear about it. Yes. And I'm pretty

01:14:08.050 --> 01:14:09.670
sure if it's a popular song, that's what it's

01:14:09.670 --> 01:14:12.130
going to be about. And at some point, if you've

01:14:12.130 --> 01:14:14.869
had that many breakups, there's a common denominator,

01:14:15.109 --> 01:14:18.130
folks. Nobody wants to talk about that. Yeah.

01:14:18.229 --> 01:14:20.729
I was actually joking with my wife and daughter

01:14:20.729 --> 01:14:22.810
about her the other day because they love to

01:14:22.810 --> 01:14:26.010
listen to her music. Yeah. And I have determined

01:14:26.010 --> 01:14:29.239
that she's a succubus. She's a succubus. Well,

01:14:29.260 --> 01:14:30.880
look at what she's done to Jason Kelsey. Yeah,

01:14:30.880 --> 01:14:32.760
I know. What has happened to that man? That man

01:14:32.760 --> 01:14:34.800
cannot play football anymore right now. And it

01:14:34.800 --> 01:14:38.199
started last year. It's gotten worse this year.

01:14:38.220 --> 01:14:44.520
This year, he's the suck in succubus. He is.

01:14:44.779 --> 01:14:48.220
For sure. I don't know. I mean, whatever. It's

01:14:48.220 --> 01:14:50.560
funny because, again, I don't have anything against

01:14:50.560 --> 01:14:54.039
her. And I think Jason and Travis especially.

01:14:55.079 --> 01:14:57.020
whenever they get together they're hilarious

01:14:57.020 --> 01:15:02.359
and i wish all of the luck in the world to i

01:15:02.359 --> 01:15:07.140
can't say the eagles i just like i really like

01:15:07.140 --> 01:15:09.939
jason but at the same time i'm like that's what

01:15:09.939 --> 01:15:11.659
happens when you're a cowboys fan well i'm not

01:15:11.659 --> 01:15:14.640
really like i okay i say that i am a cowboys

01:15:14.640 --> 01:15:20.760
fan i have i have lived in north texas for so

01:15:20.760 --> 01:15:24.960
much of my life i feel like a poser if i if i

01:15:24.960 --> 01:15:28.500
cheer for anybody else like it's i mean it's

01:15:28.500 --> 01:15:29.960
the same way with the rangers there's plenty

01:15:29.960 --> 01:15:31.579
of decisions that the rangers have made that

01:15:31.579 --> 01:15:34.779
i'm like are you kidding me yeah and now the

01:15:34.779 --> 01:15:37.319
mavericks most recently like all of the well

01:15:37.319 --> 01:15:39.279
not most recently the cowboys again are in the

01:15:39.279 --> 01:15:44.140
you know top prize for moron of the year i don't

01:15:44.140 --> 01:15:46.819
i don't understand i don't like i don't understand

01:15:46.819 --> 01:15:49.960
how there's not somebody that can pull a ripcord

01:15:49.960 --> 01:15:55.699
on jerry jones but like It's so bad, so bad.

01:15:57.020 --> 01:16:02.260
The moment I see a fan refer to them as America's

01:16:02.260 --> 01:16:05.520
team, I'm like, you are living in the 70s. You

01:16:05.520 --> 01:16:10.340
don't realize. I understand people were talking

01:16:10.340 --> 01:16:11.939
about it in the 90s because they were winning,

01:16:12.060 --> 01:16:17.119
but America's team was Tom Landry's Cowboys,

01:16:17.220 --> 01:16:23.000
not whatever it's become after. jones fired him

01:16:23.000 --> 01:16:29.939
like yeah what a joke yeah anyway and now it's

01:16:29.939 --> 01:16:33.739
just you know shockingly obvious that he has

01:16:33.739 --> 01:16:39.300
no idea what he's doing no he can't blame everybody

01:16:39.300 --> 01:16:41.539
else over and over and over again switch out

01:16:41.539 --> 01:16:43.300
that person and then it's still be their fault

01:16:43.300 --> 01:16:46.840
it's him he's the problem anyway all that to

01:16:46.840 --> 01:16:53.380
say like I want to be able to like the Eagles

01:16:53.380 --> 01:17:02.100
because of how, I guess, is winsome a word you

01:17:02.100 --> 01:17:06.960
can use for Jason Kelsey? Maybe. He's just a

01:17:06.960 --> 01:17:09.319
likable guy. I want to have a beer with him.

01:17:10.380 --> 01:17:13.720
Not garage beer, though. No, no, no, no. I want

01:17:13.720 --> 01:17:16.159
to actually have a beer, not just have you pound

01:17:16.159 --> 01:17:23.229
it. let's find a beer you like yes and sure if

01:17:23.229 --> 01:17:25.130
you want to drink five of those first and then

01:17:25.130 --> 01:17:31.069
that's fine but like seems like a great guy love

01:17:31.069 --> 01:17:33.789
listening to their podcast because it's funny

01:17:33.789 --> 01:17:37.430
to hear about football from people who actually

01:17:37.430 --> 01:17:40.789
play football my uncle billy was a lot like that

01:17:40.789 --> 01:17:42.989
where you would hear about things that you're

01:17:42.989 --> 01:17:47.750
like oh really like that's how that was huh um

01:17:50.339 --> 01:17:54.380
But, I mean, just all of that is way more entertaining

01:17:54.380 --> 01:17:58.359
to me than hearing these commentators or guys

01:17:58.359 --> 01:18:02.119
that wish that they played whatever sport talk

01:18:02.119 --> 01:18:05.800
about it. I'm looking at you, Stephen A. Anyway,

01:18:06.920 --> 01:18:10.359
would much rather listen to them. And so I don't

01:18:10.359 --> 01:18:19.010
have anything against Travis or Taylor. But y

01:18:19.010 --> 01:18:21.329
'all got to figure out how to like. She's killing

01:18:21.329 --> 01:18:24.850
the man. It sure looks like it. So to me, I go

01:18:24.850 --> 01:18:28.270
back to, and this is a throwback to the 80s,

01:18:28.270 --> 01:18:32.470
The Dark Crystal. Yeah. Essence of Gelfling.

01:18:33.050 --> 01:18:36.149
Essence of Gelfling. She's all essence of Kelsey.

01:18:36.850 --> 01:18:40.029
Nice. She's draining the boy. That's what I think.

01:18:40.430 --> 01:18:43.590
So, of course, I say that to my wife and my daughter.

01:18:44.210 --> 01:18:47.359
And, of course, they get bent out of shape. Or

01:18:47.359 --> 01:18:51.699
are they fans? Yes. They're not, like, Swifties,

01:18:51.699 --> 01:18:55.760
necessarily, but they enjoy her music. I mean,

01:18:55.779 --> 01:18:58.920
great. And, of course, I called her the succubus,

01:18:58.920 --> 01:19:03.939
and then you thought I, you know, just spoke

01:19:03.939 --> 01:19:06.340
some kind of heresy. Yeah, you're like, we're

01:19:06.340 --> 01:19:10.220
not going to, let's not, let's not make that

01:19:10.220 --> 01:19:17.210
line. I mean, she, boof. But again, I hope they

01:19:17.210 --> 01:19:19.750
get married and that their marriage lasts for

01:19:19.750 --> 01:19:24.329
a long time. Just everything nowadays points

01:19:24.329 --> 01:19:26.630
in the opposite direction. Correct. This is not

01:19:26.630 --> 01:19:31.369
going to go well for anybody. But prove me wrong.

01:19:31.609 --> 01:19:35.270
I would love for that to not be the case. And

01:19:35.270 --> 01:19:39.369
I would love for Travis Kelsey to remember how

01:19:39.369 --> 01:19:42.090
to play baseball. Baseball. To remember how to

01:19:42.090 --> 01:19:45.250
play football. Yep. Or hockey. You know, if you

01:19:45.250 --> 01:19:46.989
want to switch to hockey, that's fine with me.

01:19:47.109 --> 01:19:49.369
But, like, evidently they grew up playing hockey.

01:19:50.869 --> 01:19:55.130
I want you to be a successful human being. I'd

01:19:55.130 --> 01:19:56.970
be afraid to see somebody that big coming at

01:19:56.970 --> 01:19:59.869
me on the ice. I agree, but maybe that's what

01:19:59.869 --> 01:20:04.949
would make it so effective. Maybe. Man. Yikes.

01:20:05.210 --> 01:20:07.029
Yikes. That's a big boy coming at you on the

01:20:07.029 --> 01:20:10.270
ice. It is a big boy. Tell you what. He's super

01:20:10.270 --> 01:20:13.689
tall. Yeah. But his brother might be scarier.

01:20:14.750 --> 01:20:16.949
Yeah, but I don't know that Jason's going to

01:20:16.949 --> 01:20:19.630
be quite as nimble on the ice anymore. No, I

01:20:19.630 --> 01:20:23.449
don't think so. But at the same time, it just

01:20:23.449 --> 01:20:25.529
takes one hit. Yeah, he's just got to get moving.

01:20:25.729 --> 01:20:28.510
He's just got to get moving, and he's got to

01:20:28.510 --> 01:20:33.149
not miss you. Yeah. And I don't exist anymore.

01:20:33.430 --> 01:20:36.689
Pretty much. All of a sudden, it's just he's

01:20:36.689 --> 01:20:39.590
gone. You are permanently planted into the ice.

01:20:39.770 --> 01:20:42.729
I'm so impressed by like these big guys and how

01:20:42.729 --> 01:20:45.609
athletic they are. Yeah. I mean, it's funny because

01:20:45.609 --> 01:20:48.310
they talked about it a lot. Again, referring

01:20:48.310 --> 01:20:52.289
to Taylor Swift at a football game, but at whatever

01:20:52.289 --> 01:20:57.630
game that was that Jason was in the stands or

01:20:57.630 --> 01:21:01.890
in the box with Taylor when Travis was playing

01:21:01.890 --> 01:21:06.970
and he jumped out of the box because he saw a,

01:21:07.390 --> 01:21:10.449
little girl who was a Swifty and like picked

01:21:10.449 --> 01:21:15.050
her up and brought her to the window of the box

01:21:15.050 --> 01:21:17.409
in order for Taylor to see the sign that she

01:21:17.409 --> 01:21:21.390
had or whatever, which I mean, how freaking wholesome

01:21:21.390 --> 01:21:27.430
is that anyway? Um, but I will tell you, I don't

01:21:27.430 --> 01:21:29.010
know how many beers it took for him to be that

01:21:29.010 --> 01:21:31.789
limber. Yeah, that's yeah. That could be a thing,

01:21:31.829 --> 01:21:35.939
but If he's drinking his own beer, he would probably

01:21:35.939 --> 01:21:38.239
take a case. Yeah. Because that stuff is like

01:21:38.239 --> 01:21:40.180
drinking water. Yeah, I don't understand that.

01:21:40.319 --> 01:21:42.619
Like, big guy like that? It's just a chugging

01:21:42.619 --> 01:21:44.359
beer. That's all it is. It seems like you should

01:21:44.359 --> 01:21:49.060
only be doing 10%. Like, 10 % or higher. Yeah.

01:21:50.340 --> 01:21:53.119
He's got the mass to offset it. Yeah. Otherwise,

01:21:53.220 --> 01:21:57.819
you're just, like, drinking 24 beers. You're

01:21:57.819 --> 01:22:00.300
wasting your time. I'm wasting a lot of time.

01:22:00.520 --> 01:22:05.180
Yeah. Brings me back to this guy. Um, what was,

01:22:05.279 --> 01:22:09.399
yeah, we talked a lot about nothing. That's okay.

01:22:09.539 --> 01:22:12.739
You want to talk about the security or just save

01:22:12.739 --> 01:22:14.319
it for that? Do we got time? Where are we at?

01:22:14.380 --> 01:22:18.180
What's the, as an hour and 21 minutes. Well,

01:22:18.199 --> 01:22:19.579
that depends on how much farther you want to

01:22:19.579 --> 01:22:21.279
go. I know you want to get home. Yeah. I mean,

01:22:21.279 --> 01:22:24.279
I'm good now. Yeah. Cause you can drink the beer.

01:22:24.399 --> 01:22:27.800
Yeah. Okay. Let's hit it real quick and we'll

01:22:27.800 --> 01:22:31.020
see what we can get. So this is where I need

01:22:31.020 --> 01:22:33.619
to insert the jingle. Insert the jingle. Now

01:22:33.619 --> 01:22:38.060
entering second half of show. I'm not sure we

01:22:38.060 --> 01:22:40.600
can call it a half yet, but we're working on

01:22:40.600 --> 01:22:45.640
it. Now entering last eighth of show. So I want

01:22:45.640 --> 01:22:49.020
to talk about, and this is nothing new. So for

01:22:49.020 --> 01:22:51.039
some of y 'all, maybe you've been aware of this,

01:22:51.079 --> 01:22:54.060
and some of you maybe you haven't. But ever since

01:22:54.060 --> 01:22:59.779
2008, there has essentially been, a back door,

01:22:59.960 --> 01:23:04.060
and every Intel chip that's been made. Did you

01:23:04.060 --> 01:23:07.520
say 2008? 2008. I don't think I realized that.

01:23:07.520 --> 01:23:09.659
Intel Management Engine. I thought this was more

01:23:09.659 --> 01:23:12.859
like, I don't know, 17. No, no, no, no, no, no,

01:23:12.979 --> 01:23:18.819
no. 17, it got a fair amount of notoriety with

01:23:18.819 --> 01:23:21.560
security people going, hey, yeah, there really

01:23:21.560 --> 01:23:23.600
is a problem here. This is an issue. I don't

01:23:23.600 --> 01:23:26.060
know if you've noticed, but. So basically, Intel

01:23:26.060 --> 01:23:31.590
Management Engine. is its own, I think it's okay

01:23:31.590 --> 01:23:35.750
to clarify it as its own computer, if you will,

01:23:35.890 --> 01:23:41.510
that exists inside of your Intel processor. Computer?

01:23:41.689 --> 01:23:46.369
Computer, yes. Computer. Use the mouse. Computer?

01:23:46.609 --> 01:23:52.189
Yes. So think of it truly as having a separate

01:23:52.189 --> 01:23:55.189
computer that exists inside of your CPU. Is this

01:23:55.189 --> 01:23:57.899
like, okay. And it runs its own operating system.

01:23:58.039 --> 01:24:04.239
Yeah. This is like when you partition a hard

01:24:04.239 --> 01:24:06.880
drive. Yeah. And you're saying like, no, this

01:24:06.880 --> 01:24:08.739
is used for this and this is used for this. Yeah.

01:24:09.560 --> 01:24:12.100
This is how this has worked in my head. Is this

01:24:12.100 --> 01:24:15.159
not? No, because when you have, you're thinking

01:24:15.159 --> 01:24:16.859
like a dual boot for two different operating

01:24:16.859 --> 01:24:19.539
systems. Right. Well, that's what people might

01:24:19.539 --> 01:24:26.399
think it should be. But imagine that you. Basically,

01:24:26.840 --> 01:24:29.119
you'd have to boot both OSs at the exact same

01:24:29.119 --> 01:24:32.159
time. And one, not be aware that the other is

01:24:32.159 --> 01:24:35.159
there. Okay. See, that sounds so bad. This is

01:24:35.159 --> 01:24:39.619
totally nefarious. So it runs an operating system

01:24:39.619 --> 01:24:43.930
called Minix. What did you just say? Minix. Not

01:24:43.930 --> 01:24:48.470
Linux, but Linux. No, that's not. This is a spoof.

01:24:48.569 --> 01:24:50.229
Hold on. No, no, no, no, no, no. You can look

01:24:50.229 --> 01:24:51.989
it up. Google it right now, live on the show.

01:24:52.069 --> 01:24:55.210
I'm not doing it. Bingit .io. I already Googled

01:24:55.210 --> 01:24:56.750
some of this, and it scared the crap out of me,

01:24:56.770 --> 01:25:00.310
so I don't actually want to know. Yeah, so this.

01:25:00.670 --> 01:25:02.229
Guys, y 'all listen. I'm just going to plug my

01:25:02.229 --> 01:25:04.609
ears for the rest of the show. Let me know when

01:25:04.609 --> 01:25:06.529
you're done, Chris. I'm not listening. I'm not

01:25:06.529 --> 01:25:12.539
listening. So this. Yeah. He couldn't even come

01:25:12.539 --> 01:25:16.220
back from that. Jeez. I'm not listening. I'm

01:25:16.220 --> 01:25:20.220
not dead yet. I'm not dead yet. So this exists

01:25:20.220 --> 01:25:25.380
on your CPU. If you try to disable it. Whether

01:25:25.380 --> 01:25:27.859
you want it to or not. Your CPU will not be able

01:25:27.859 --> 01:25:30.539
to function. Yeah, that's. That's kind of where

01:25:30.539 --> 01:25:32.060
we're at with this level. That's so jacked up.

01:25:32.159 --> 01:25:37.060
So this management engine can literally see anything

01:25:37.060 --> 01:25:41.930
and everything that's going on. And nothing in

01:25:41.930 --> 01:25:44.670
your normal day -to -day use of the machine knows

01:25:44.670 --> 01:25:48.569
it exists. Windows doesn't know it's there. You're

01:25:48.569 --> 01:25:51.510
not going to see special processes. Nothing.

01:25:52.470 --> 01:25:58.250
You could leverage this to totally spy on an

01:25:58.250 --> 01:26:01.189
individual. Keystrokes, screenshots, you name

01:26:01.189 --> 01:26:06.390
it. You could leverage this to inject various...

01:26:08.719 --> 01:26:12.619
Whatever you want. I mean, virus, malware, you

01:26:12.619 --> 01:26:16.239
name it. Ransomware, you could totally leverage

01:26:16.239 --> 01:26:19.300
this, inject it into the system. And this runs

01:26:19.300 --> 01:26:23.420
at such a deep level that even your fancy schmancy

01:26:23.420 --> 01:26:29.840
beyond antivirus doesn't see it. It's like a

01:26:29.840 --> 01:26:34.189
total ghost in the machine. And it's designed.

01:26:34.670 --> 01:26:37.149
It's designed for that on purpose. It was billed

01:26:37.149 --> 01:26:39.310
as, hey, look, we're going to give you a way

01:26:39.310 --> 01:26:41.729
that you can remotely manage these computers.

01:26:41.909 --> 01:26:44.949
And guess what? If the computer is turned off,

01:26:45.109 --> 01:26:48.649
shut down, but you still have it plugged into

01:26:48.649 --> 01:26:51.289
power and it's physically plugged into the LAN,

01:26:51.470 --> 01:26:55.689
you can still get into that computer and get

01:26:55.689 --> 01:26:57.310
into Intel Management Engine and do what you

01:26:57.310 --> 01:27:01.189
need to do. Okay, Chris, I'm getting angry. This

01:27:01.189 --> 01:27:03.710
is where it is. And then where it gets even crazier

01:27:03.710 --> 01:27:08.949
is that the CIA and the NSA get special chips

01:27:08.949 --> 01:27:12.510
that don't have management engine included. This

01:27:12.510 --> 01:27:16.310
is like Congress not having to do, or not Congress,

01:27:16.409 --> 01:27:19.350
the American government not having to do anything

01:27:19.350 --> 01:27:22.470
with, excuse me, I had not swallowed all the

01:27:22.470 --> 01:27:27.310
way. They don't have to do anything with like

01:27:27.310 --> 01:27:35.199
workplace. Whatever you call it. Like any regulation

01:27:35.199 --> 01:27:37.640
they have on the workplaces does not apply to

01:27:37.640 --> 01:27:43.199
them. Correct. This is terrible. So you can imagine

01:27:43.199 --> 01:27:47.000
possibilities there. There have been major flaws

01:27:47.000 --> 01:27:49.420
in the system that they've patched over time.

01:27:50.119 --> 01:27:54.560
But eventually your chip ages and you don't get

01:27:54.560 --> 01:27:57.079
any updates anymore. It's not being addressed.

01:27:57.279 --> 01:27:59.800
So granted, most people probably aren't running.

01:28:00.930 --> 01:28:05.310
from 2008 to maybe 2015. I'd like to think that

01:28:05.310 --> 01:28:08.829
most people have. I have one in the other building

01:28:08.829 --> 01:28:12.989
if you want to go look at it with me. Hold on.

01:28:13.109 --> 01:28:18.149
Shoot it. That's that Vostro 1400 that I was

01:28:18.149 --> 01:28:21.270
talking about. I can't. It's the only one that

01:28:21.270 --> 01:28:25.029
interfaces with the sign. Obviously, the older

01:28:25.029 --> 01:28:27.250
your computer gets, you don't get updates. Everybody

01:28:27.250 --> 01:28:31.159
understands that. That doesn't mean that magically,

01:28:31.340 --> 01:28:33.119
oh, hey, there's never going to be any issues

01:28:33.119 --> 01:28:36.680
determined with your processor that no one could

01:28:36.680 --> 01:28:42.680
ever exploit. It's just the nature of it. The

01:28:42.680 --> 01:28:45.140
other fun thing that I ran into in researching

01:28:45.140 --> 01:28:49.680
this is, do you remember the WannaCry ransomware?

01:28:49.899 --> 01:28:52.920
The one that absolutely exploded and went all

01:28:52.920 --> 01:28:56.020
over the globe? When was this? I don't remember

01:28:56.020 --> 01:28:58.000
the name. That's why. Yeah, you're putting me

01:28:58.000 --> 01:29:11.460
on the spot. Let's see. WannaCry, 2017. No. There's

01:29:11.460 --> 01:29:14.000
a screenshot of what it looked like. Yes. Okay.

01:29:14.060 --> 01:29:20.539
So, fun fact. WannaCry happened because of the

01:29:20.539 --> 01:29:25.119
NSA. They specifically went to Microsoft and

01:29:25.119 --> 01:29:30.170
said, hey, don't patch this exploit. actively

01:29:30.170 --> 01:29:35.729
using this okay in the work that we do microsoft

01:29:35.729 --> 01:29:39.890
caved eventually it got figured out and the world

01:29:39.890 --> 01:29:43.609
was introduced to want to cry and it spread like

01:29:43.609 --> 01:29:47.310
wildfire um yeah all because the nsa convinced

01:29:47.310 --> 01:29:54.090
them not to patch a problem gross yes so all

01:29:54.090 --> 01:29:58.569
that to say intel management engine is a giant

01:30:00.279 --> 01:30:03.279
Succubus? Definitely a succubus. It fits the

01:30:03.279 --> 01:30:07.500
definition. It's a security nightmare. So you

01:30:07.500 --> 01:30:09.800
can't get away from it because everybody has

01:30:09.800 --> 01:30:13.739
Intel -based machines unless you're more recent

01:30:13.739 --> 01:30:18.399
on Mac and you're into the M -series. I need

01:30:18.399 --> 01:30:21.560
to look to see if there is anything even remotely

01:30:21.560 --> 01:30:27.630
close to this in the ARM world. If you're working

01:30:27.630 --> 01:30:30.189
in IT, you're probably running on Intel -based

01:30:30.189 --> 01:30:33.430
machines. Patch, patch, patch, patch, patch.

01:30:35.029 --> 01:30:37.090
Don't let it sit any longer than it has to for

01:30:37.090 --> 01:30:42.069
testing. Patch, stay as current as you can. There

01:30:42.069 --> 01:30:45.029
are some companies out there that are working

01:30:45.029 --> 01:30:48.909
on ways to try to disable it. There's some open

01:30:48.909 --> 01:30:52.250
-source Linux folks that are trying to put together

01:30:52.250 --> 01:30:55.289
laptops that would give you the ability to control

01:30:55.289 --> 01:30:58.880
this. Of course, the vast majority of the world

01:30:58.880 --> 01:31:00.579
is not going to switch to Linux for the desktop.

01:31:00.979 --> 01:31:06.260
Nope. So, yeah, this is just a horrible mess.

01:31:07.100 --> 01:31:12.840
It's not going anywhere. Yay. So, but yeah, the

01:31:12.840 --> 01:31:14.939
idea that your machine could be sitting there

01:31:14.939 --> 01:31:19.619
shut down, you're thinking it's off. But because

01:31:19.619 --> 01:31:25.199
of the beauty of wake on land, I can now. gain

01:31:25.199 --> 01:31:28.520
access to the Intel management engine, boot the

01:31:28.520 --> 01:31:30.399
system up and do whatever I need to do. Yeah.

01:31:30.420 --> 01:31:32.699
Wake on land has always been one of those things

01:31:32.699 --> 01:31:34.180
that I was like, Oh, that's such a good idea.

01:31:34.300 --> 01:31:40.479
And now I'm like, ah, I hate you. So, uh, but

01:31:40.479 --> 01:31:46.439
yeah, thank you. Uh, Intel, thank you. Three

01:31:46.439 --> 01:31:52.359
letter agencies. And there's no telling how many.

01:31:53.250 --> 01:31:56.010
Times this has been used for various exploits.

01:31:59.789 --> 01:32:02.409
Oh, you know, if you don't comply, there might

01:32:02.409 --> 01:32:03.789
be something that shows up on your computer.

01:32:04.210 --> 01:32:06.390
Yeah, and after you sent me that is when I found

01:32:06.390 --> 01:32:08.189
the thing about the Raspberry Pi. It was like,

01:32:08.250 --> 01:32:10.289
oh, no, you don't want Raspberry Pi. It was whatever

01:32:10.289 --> 01:32:13.630
professor. What school was that person from?

01:32:13.689 --> 01:32:19.189
Anyway, I want to kind of go on a deep dive with

01:32:19.189 --> 01:32:20.970
that whole thing and figure out exactly how.

01:32:21.609 --> 01:32:24.850
Are you getting paid by China? Anyway, she was

01:32:24.850 --> 01:32:26.430
talking about how you shouldn't use raspberry

01:32:26.430 --> 01:32:29.130
pie because of this. The orange pie. Orange pie

01:32:29.130 --> 01:32:32.050
or whatever. And it was like, yeah, you know

01:32:32.050 --> 01:32:34.550
that's manufactured in China, right? Correct.

01:32:35.010 --> 01:32:37.869
Yeah, with the rock chip. You don't think they

01:32:37.869 --> 01:32:40.390
have? Their own back doors. Their own back door

01:32:40.390 --> 01:32:43.310
here? China would never do that. No. Only the

01:32:43.310 --> 01:32:44.250
American government would do that. They're all

01:32:44.250 --> 01:32:48.289
about freedom. Yes. Imperial pig dogs. Of course

01:32:48.289 --> 01:32:52.960
they have back doors. Imperial pig dogs. anyway

01:32:52.960 --> 01:32:56.619
so you know if you just weren't scared I actually

01:32:56.619 --> 01:33:02.640
told Rebecca who I work with she was talking

01:33:02.640 --> 01:33:05.159
about how paranoid she was getting because she

01:33:05.159 --> 01:33:08.640
was hanging out with these she's in charge of

01:33:08.640 --> 01:33:15.760
our safety team which is kind of a security and

01:33:15.760 --> 01:33:22.279
first response inside of a church yeah anyway

01:33:22.279 --> 01:33:26.199
um the people that she has to hang out with like

01:33:26.199 --> 01:33:29.340
do this all the time every day and so two of

01:33:29.340 --> 01:33:30.720
the people she was talking about she spent a

01:33:30.720 --> 01:33:33.140
lot of time with she spent an hour and a half

01:33:33.140 --> 01:33:34.420
with one of them in two hours with the other

01:33:34.420 --> 01:33:37.720
and so she was like super uh paranoid and i was

01:33:37.720 --> 01:33:39.800
like well i'm about to go talk to chris kincaid

01:33:39.800 --> 01:33:41.840
you want to just shoot yourself in the face now

01:33:41.840 --> 01:33:46.579
it's about like you come hang out with us you're

01:33:46.579 --> 01:33:50.420
gonna be nervous about Using your computer. Using

01:33:50.420 --> 01:33:54.960
anything. I mean, just can't even print now.

01:33:55.340 --> 01:33:57.880
Well, don't even get me started on printer hacks.

01:33:58.060 --> 01:34:03.439
Jeez. That was pretty funny. I sent Chris the

01:34:03.439 --> 01:34:10.579
meme that was going around. Gutenberg invents

01:34:10.579 --> 01:34:13.300
a printing press. Hey, what does it say? You're

01:34:13.300 --> 01:34:16.979
low on magenta. Yes, that's about right. That's

01:34:16.979 --> 01:34:21.020
about right. Okay. The only thing better is the

01:34:21.020 --> 01:34:25.880
classic PC load letter. Yeah. What the heck does

01:34:25.880 --> 01:34:30.020
that even mean? You're just, yeah. And then you

01:34:30.020 --> 01:34:31.739
take the printer out back and beat it with a

01:34:31.739 --> 01:34:35.880
baseball bat. I have been tempted more than once

01:34:35.880 --> 01:34:40.439
to destroy. And I did. Did I? Okay. So my, my

01:34:40.439 --> 01:34:46.550
daughter. This will be the end. Okay. I caught

01:34:46.550 --> 01:34:50.250
my daughter with a Chromebook hidden under her

01:34:50.250 --> 01:34:54.670
pillow. Oh, a school Chromebook? No. We got them

01:34:54.670 --> 01:35:00.189
these Chromebooks to do their homework in 2020,

01:35:00.329 --> 01:35:04.569
and they were old Chromebooks in 2020. I will

01:35:04.569 --> 01:35:08.729
admit I made the classic mistake of this thing

01:35:08.729 --> 01:35:12.789
is so outdated. need to like keep tabs on it

01:35:12.789 --> 01:35:17.810
yeah which is just stupid don't do that but i

01:35:17.810 --> 01:35:22.750
did failure failure as a husband failure as a

01:35:22.750 --> 01:35:31.310
father failure um and i uh um my wife actually

01:35:31.310 --> 01:35:35.489
busted my son with one in his room which is a

01:35:35.489 --> 01:35:38.010
like this is a standing rule in our house there's

01:35:38.010 --> 01:35:41.659
no technology in bedrooms like don't you're not

01:35:41.659 --> 01:35:44.279
doing it like we don't we don't we don't take

01:35:44.279 --> 01:35:48.899
the switch into bedrooms we don't like you're

01:35:48.899 --> 01:35:53.199
allowed to listen to like you're allowed to listen

01:35:53.199 --> 01:35:58.220
to music on your little speaker in your room

01:35:58.220 --> 01:36:03.539
but like my son got a little mp3 player like

01:36:03.539 --> 01:36:07.859
no no you're not allowed to even mess with that

01:36:08.170 --> 01:36:10.369
in your room. So just like, we're not doing this.

01:36:10.470 --> 01:36:14.829
I don't, I don't need that stress anyway. So

01:36:14.829 --> 01:36:18.149
standing rule about that, he breaks it. And of

01:36:18.149 --> 01:36:22.270
course his responses, my oldest sister has one

01:36:22.270 --> 01:36:27.449
in her room. So of course, you know, her, her

01:36:27.449 --> 01:36:30.109
door is locked. Cade has knocked his door off

01:36:30.109 --> 01:36:32.189
the hinges. So he just doesn't even have a door.

01:36:32.390 --> 01:36:37.359
Okay. But Madison's door is locked. which is

01:36:37.359 --> 01:36:40.159
not supposed to be. And so Lori gets in there,

01:36:40.199 --> 01:36:47.039
finds this, uh, computer under her pillow. Madison

01:36:47.039 --> 01:36:49.659
brings it to me and I'm going through the search

01:36:49.659 --> 01:36:54.239
history and you know, like honestly it's not

01:36:54.239 --> 01:36:56.159
as bad as it could have been. Sure. But I don't

01:36:56.159 --> 01:36:59.720
let my kids on YouTube because I, I, I trust

01:36:59.720 --> 01:37:02.279
my children. I don't have a problem with YouTube,

01:37:02.359 --> 01:37:05.619
but I know the way that these algorithms work.

01:37:06.109 --> 01:37:09.050
And I know how easy it is to stumble into areas

01:37:09.050 --> 01:37:12.590
that you don't need to be in as a kid. And so

01:37:12.590 --> 01:37:15.449
like, I'm, I'm just terrified. I'm sure that

01:37:15.449 --> 01:37:17.510
I'm going to find, and I, it really is pretty

01:37:17.510 --> 01:37:20.689
tame. All things considered, except for the fact

01:37:20.689 --> 01:37:23.250
that there's a lot of days that she's been up

01:37:23.250 --> 01:37:27.109
until like two, three in the morning. And I'm

01:37:27.109 --> 01:37:29.829
like, babe, if I hear you complain about being

01:37:29.829 --> 01:37:33.970
tired one more time. Yeah. I just like, you've

01:37:33.970 --> 01:37:37.069
lost all sympathy from your daddy because of

01:37:37.069 --> 01:37:43.869
this, but find this out. And then, um, my first

01:37:43.869 --> 01:37:46.170
question to Lori, like I'm looking at this like

01:37:46.170 --> 01:37:53.699
huge scroll of YouTube videos. Um, and nothing

01:37:53.699 --> 01:37:56.560
really honestly too concerning, which I was so,

01:37:56.640 --> 01:38:00.020
so grateful for, but just so filled with like,

01:38:00.159 --> 01:38:03.560
I can't believe you're hiding this from us. We're

01:38:03.560 --> 01:38:09.520
not like, we're not keeping you from, this isn't

01:38:09.520 --> 01:38:11.279
like a Chromebook that she shares with her brothers.

01:38:11.380 --> 01:38:14.199
Each of them has their own. And again, they're

01:38:14.199 --> 01:38:17.079
super outdated, but whatever, like what a killed

01:38:17.079 --> 01:38:19.659
for this kind of access when I was a kid. Yeah.

01:38:19.720 --> 01:38:23.430
And as much as I've secured it, which honestly

01:38:23.430 --> 01:38:26.670
I got to be like, man, I am really grateful that

01:38:26.670 --> 01:38:29.449
I did the work on the network to make sure that,

01:38:29.489 --> 01:38:33.470
I mean, I don't know if she tried to find things

01:38:33.470 --> 01:38:35.890
that she just couldn't, or if this really is

01:38:35.890 --> 01:38:39.529
all she's looking at. But again, nothing terrible.

01:38:40.789 --> 01:38:43.470
I look at Lori, I'm like, is this ours? Like,

01:38:43.510 --> 01:38:47.189
did, do we own this? Or was this like some, one

01:38:47.189 --> 01:38:49.689
of her friends? Like, cause I didn't buy it.

01:38:49.710 --> 01:38:51.989
I know that. I'm like, this isn't the schools,

01:38:52.010 --> 01:38:54.710
and your friend who we got these from didn't,

01:38:54.710 --> 01:38:58.550
like, loan them to us five years ago, and we

01:38:58.550 --> 01:39:00.590
just forgot to give them back. She's like, no,

01:39:00.649 --> 01:39:03.449
they're ours. And I just grabbed both ends of

01:39:03.449 --> 01:39:06.689
that Chromebook and snapped it in half. Yikes.

01:39:06.729 --> 01:39:08.649
And, like, did it a few more. Like, I could see

01:39:08.649 --> 01:39:11.369
this is pitch black in my room because it's that,

01:39:11.510 --> 01:39:15.229
like, we're at 1130 at night. We're supposed

01:39:15.229 --> 01:39:19.350
to be asleep. And you see the hinge on that thing

01:39:19.350 --> 01:39:25.470
light up and then disappear. And then I basically

01:39:25.470 --> 01:39:29.289
break it in half and then twist it to pop the

01:39:29.289 --> 01:39:33.890
screen off the thing. And it's dark enough, but

01:39:33.890 --> 01:39:38.550
I still see my daughter's eyes go. And all she

01:39:38.550 --> 01:39:41.250
can say is, do you want me to throw it in the

01:39:41.250 --> 01:39:47.279
trash? I was like, yes. Yes, please do. Throw

01:39:47.279 --> 01:39:49.500
that in the trash. That's what daddy thinks of

01:39:49.500 --> 01:39:56.479
something that's going to make you disobey. So

01:39:56.479 --> 01:39:58.460
every once in a while you just got to break something.

01:40:00.920 --> 01:40:04.720
Break stuff. It did feel good. It was cathartic.

01:40:04.800 --> 01:40:08.680
If you can spare the piece of technology to hit

01:40:08.680 --> 01:40:12.220
it with a baseball bat or nine iron or whatever

01:40:12.220 --> 01:40:14.619
it is. Chromebooks come pretty cheap though.

01:40:15.780 --> 01:40:18.600
Oh, this one was free. Well, that's even better.

01:40:18.699 --> 01:40:21.960
So I didn't even feel it in that sense. Yeah.

01:40:22.180 --> 01:40:27.420
Just in the betrayal sense. Anyway, I'm going

01:40:27.420 --> 01:40:29.199
to eat the rest of the sandwich. You do that.

01:40:29.640 --> 01:40:32.659
You still got beer left. That was a lot of beer,

01:40:32.739 --> 01:40:37.939
man. I'm going to drink it. Of course you are.

01:40:38.079 --> 01:40:41.380
But we've been talking. We have. So hard to.

01:40:42.280 --> 01:40:44.779
For an hour and 40 minutes. I think that's our

01:40:44.779 --> 01:40:48.000
longest show. Congratulations. Yeah, and you

01:40:48.000 --> 01:40:49.720
wanted to get out of here early. Two episodes

01:40:49.720 --> 01:40:54.319
for one. Yeah. Anyway, always good to talk to

01:40:54.319 --> 01:40:56.659
you. Enjoyed it. See you, everybody. See you.

01:41:26.149 --> 01:41:41.170
Hit it. I got ants. I got ants. You've got karma.
