Okay, there is a movie called The Architect.

Talk about you could make that into a sexy movie. The Brutalist.

SPEAKER_01 4:44

Hey yo! Annie Scoveman back on the mic. Anyways, um, I recommend to even people that don't like movies, to Danny, are you listening? Go see the Odyssey on the biggest possible screen you can see it on. Go see it in a couple of years.

SPEAKER_06 5:00

Everyone who likes Greek mythology.

SPEAKER_01 5:02

I think anybody that uh enjoys being alive.

SPEAKER_05 5:05

I won't I won't see it until you project it and I can see it from a pool. So I can feel like I'm there.

SPEAKER_01 5:11

I feel like it'll do it a disservice. Oh yeah. Really 4Ds bring a squirty.

SPEAKER_06 5:16

I'll just bring a squirty.

SPEAKER_01 5:18

A water gun?

SPEAKER_05 5:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 5:20

Squirty.

SPEAKER_06 5:22

Karen can bring a gun into the theater.

SPEAKER_01 5:24

Okay. Come on.

SPEAKER_06 5:26

You said you wanted to experience it.

SPEAKER_01 5:28

When we were in the theater.

SPEAKER_06 5:29

Bring 4D to you.

SPEAKER_01 5:30

I was saying to Kara.

SPEAKER_06 5:32

A water gun.

SPEAKER_01 5:34

I was saying to Kara, I feel like it was probably the way that like the first people to go into a movie theater felt. I was like, this screen is huge. I never seen an IMAX before.

SPEAKER_00 5:44

What? You didn't see the screen. Yes, we have.

SPEAKER_06 5:45

No. We were in the IMAX theater in Mission Valley for a scary movie one time.

SPEAKER_01 5:49

No, we were in the Dolby Theater for an IMA for a movie. We were in the Dolby Theater. Which is also a great experience.

SPEAKER_03 5:56

We saw something in 70 millimeter, we didn't we?

SPEAKER_01 5:58

We saw the brutalist. No, we saw Oppenheimer. We saw Oppenheimer in 70 mil, but it wasn't IMAX.

SPEAKER_06 6:04

We saw the brutalist in a huge theater with the city. So is there a 70 millimeter screen near Map?

SPEAKER_01 6:08

Maybe we didn't see it in 70 mil. Maybe we saw it in 35 mil. The diff the the Okay, so there's digital and there's film. Yeah. And IMAX refers to the size of it. But 70 millimeter also refers to big screen.

SPEAKER_06 6:26

You don't need to film 70 millimeter on an IMAX camera.

SPEAKER_01 6:31

Well, there's no there's nobody doing it right now that's not. I I think. I think Chris Nolan and Dennis Villeneuve and all these guys are doing no, I think. No, I don't think he's the first.

SPEAKER_06 6:44

Wasn't the camera? I read this thing that there's only six IMAX cameras. Is it the IMAX cameras? In the world, and one director has broken two of them.

SPEAKER_01 6:54

Yeah, I think that's right. Yeah, it's it's definitely Chris.

SPEAKER_03 6:57

Chris, if you break Chris, it wasn't Christopher Nolan, it was someone else. Don't you feel like if there were six cameras, there'd be like a whole army of guys who could fix them?

SPEAKER_01 7:05

Probably only six guys. Really?

SPEAKER_03 7:07

Oh, oh. Or maybe it's one guy that they fly around. Don't you think you would prioritize fixing the the two of the six that exist? Right, right. How are they still broken?

SPEAKER_01 7:17

I know that Dune movie that's coming out is on it because they showed a little preview before our movie. They showed a preview for Dune 3. Um Dune goes like what?

SPEAKER_04 7:29

Bobby Bah!

SPEAKER_01 7:31

Right, that's the noise for the minions. That's the noise for the Dune Minions movies. Banana.

SPEAKER_05 7:38

Baby Bah! Bima Banana. Oh my gosh. A minion Zendaya.

SPEAKER_01 7:44

This is truly an audio format. Yeah? Podcasting. Zendaya is not a minion.

SPEAKER_03 7:52

Listening to it. 70mm. That's right. We shoot this podcast in 70mm IMAX and we reduce it to 4K every single week.

SPEAKER_01 7:59

And we actually we have three simultaneous IMAX recordings. Oh. Luckily, he's one of the guys that can fix them. Why couldn't it be Ryan? Well, you're the camera guy, of course. I'm not the camera guy in this show. Always were. Always were the camera guy. Highly recommend. Alright. 10 out of 10 movies. It could be Ryan. It can be Ryan. Go see the Odyssey.

SPEAKER_05 8:20

Odyssey.

SPEAKER_06 8:21

There were a lot of things I saw about it. Odyssey. Yeah. Online. Little fun facts.

SPEAKER_03 8:26

Yeah. Well, don't ruin it for me.

SPEAKER_01 8:28

Well, nothing about the movie.

SPEAKER_06 8:30

No, no, no, nothing about the movie. I love Derby.

SPEAKER_01 8:32

Matt Damon said it was the most physically taxing movie he's ever been a part of.

SPEAKER_05 8:37

I was hearing about, I saw an interview with Tom Holland and Anne Hathaway about that, where they would hike up every day to the filming location. The whole crew, all the actors, would hike like two miles up a hill to this filming location. And then at the end of the film.

SPEAKER_01 8:53

Craft services had to go too. Everybody hiked.

SPEAKER_05 8:56

The only person who got a helicopter was Anne Hathaway because her whole thing is they're like That was in her rider. They were like, well, no, she said I was, she goes, I was downhiked, but they said it would take so long to get her like back to not being disheveled because she's like physically clean. Of course. And they're like, it doesn't work for your character. Where everyone else is like soldiers. Like you can come disheveled and sweaty, whatever. It probably works. Totally makes sense. They're like, honestly, it's perfect. But she was like, so everyone would get to the end of filming, they'd be like, now we gotta walk back down into town, and she'd be like, Where's the hell come from? Okay.

SPEAKER_03 9:28

She's like, why couldn't you walk back down and save them a little save them a buck? It doesn't matter if filming's over for the day. They've already paid for the full day of helicopter, probably.

SPEAKER_06 9:36

I was seeing they filmed so much on the boat. Because they actually filled uh filmed in like open water on these boats. That's pretty amazing. I said that there's certain scenes where it's like it's so much that you I tried to look for it and I couldn't see any of them. But you can see some of the cast like actually like getting sick on the boat because they were doing it so many takes and they were literally being waterboarded the whole time. I really tried to look when we watched it today to see if I could see anyone throwing up. I couldn't.

SPEAKER_01 10:05

He said ever it was like the hardest working crew. Like everybody was so invested in being a part of making the movie that stuff like that would happen. They'd be like, Yep, like okay, see you again tomorrow. Like all good. Yeah, pretty awesome.

SPEAKER_03 10:19

I mean, I feel like Yeah, I mean they're all they're all millionaires. I feel like the the how to do it. And it's like the top of your game. Right. Why would Matt Matt Damon could could have freaking rented his own?

SPEAKER_05 10:29

My favorite thing that the press tourist has done, and it's made me realize that I might be too quick with praise in life. Is there a lot of people? For who, other people or yourself? For other people. Okay. They're talking about how Matt Matt Damon is saying, like, this is my third Christopher Nolan um film. And he goes, usually when you cut, Chris will be like, Okay, moving on. He's like, if he doesn't say anything, it's fine. And like you'll you'll maybe get like a good or like okay, yeah, like that was good. Next. He goes, but never, I've never gotten a perfect. I guess Zendaya, like one of the first the her first day of filming, has never filmed with him, comes in and like a couple shots in, he goes, That was perfect. Yeah, and then Ann Hathaway said, she goes, This is also my third, uh, my third film with him. She goes, and I've only ever gotten one perfect. And she goes, and it did, it lit up my world in Matt Damon. So anytime it gets brought up in the tour, he's like, Yeah, I've never, never gotten a perfect. And there was one where Christopher Nolan was in the he's like, Well, I don't know, man, do better.

SPEAKER_01 11:30

It's like the Paul Hollywood handshake, right? That's why you're like waiting for it.

SPEAKER_05 11:34

I want that to be like, oh, like the Chris Nolan person. Oh my gosh, like Annie said that was like that was perfect.

SPEAKER_06 11:40

Like, and then I wonder if it was the same interview. Tom Holland was talking about how Christopher Nolan kept calling Cut, uh-huh, but would never say anything, and they just do the scene again. And so Tom Holland this whole time was like, I don't think I'm doing a good job. Like, this isn't like I think I'm doing a job, but no one's saying anything, I don't know, and then we just have to keep redoing it. He didn't realize until later that 70 millimeter IMAX only shoots three minutes at a time. Oh, so if you need to go back and redo this, they probably did this.

SPEAKER_01 12:14

Well, he'd cut it off right in the middle of a take. Yeah. Cut it off, and he'd be like, Oh, I'm sorry, and then they just would reset for another one.

SPEAKER_06 12:20

And they wouldn't tell him, and then finally someone told him, like, oh no, he's not because they don't like you. Right. It's because we have to stop the camera.

SPEAKER_03 12:32

I don't know if I can handle the anxiety of like wondering. But I guess if you're there, you've already kind of proven yourself. What other movies?

SPEAKER_01 12:39

Christopher Nolan did um the Dark Knight trilogy. The Princess Darkness. Dark Man Begins. No, he didn't know the Dark Tales. He did um Country Bears.

SPEAKER_05 12:53

Whatever.

SPEAKER_01 12:54

Just this tiny movie called Inception. Just this tiny movie called Tenet. Shark Tales.

SPEAKER_06 12:58

Oh, I didn't like Tenet.

SPEAKER_05 13:00

No, Tennant was horrible. But Inception's great. He did Titanic.

SPEAKER_01 13:02

Um no, he did not. Steve Cameron.

SPEAKER_05 13:06

Avatar. He did Avatar.

SPEAKER_01 13:07

SPEAKER_03 13:19

And it is starting William Shatner. Yes, Boston Legal. From and the references, by the way, of the show, it's like, it's 2008, guys. And I'm like, The economy is great. We should be watching Glee. Oh my god. Have I been sending it to you? I want you to know Matthew, whatever, Matthew Morrison has ruined Glee for me. I can't watch it without seeing him and being like, You're a weirdo.

SPEAKER_06 17:07

No, that's the whole show. That's the whole thing.

SPEAKER_03 17:12

When you watched it, when you watched it as a kid, though, it was declining tournament.

SPEAKER_06 17:16

No, he was never into it.

SPEAKER_05 17:17

That's what I wanted to do. My for you. He was the hero of the show. Has been doing compilations of Glee clips that say basically, there's no way that this, like, you know, like into the idea that this wasn't an AI script.

SPEAKER_00 17:29

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 17:29

Like, this could never be AI. AI could never make this. And it's outrageous.

Shu, you thought he was during the show when you're watching it during the show? Or did you find him charming and endearing? Because I found him charming and endearing. Um we watched the show back in 2000.

SPEAKER_05 18:16

I wasn't a huge fan of the channel.

SPEAKER_01 18:16

I didn't watch Cleveland. I didn't watch a ton. You're gonna have to speak into that, John.

SPEAKER_03 18:20

I didn't watch it a ton either, but I'm saying like generally the contention was that he was the cool teacher.

SPEAKER_05 18:24

I think the thing is I had well, I guess you had a teacher parent too. But my mom was very like that teacher's being weird. That's they're weird. They shouldn't be saying that to kids. They shouldn't be, you know, like yeah, yeah. She was kind of she was kind of very well, she was very hyper vigilant. She was um diligent about those things. Well diligent. Hyper vigiligent. It's so good. Hyper diligent how things like that.

SPEAKER_03 19:58

Um, let's move on from that.

SPEAKER_05 20:00

That's it. I've never said anything crazier over text.

SPEAKER_01 20:04

No, yeah, we're definitely playing it. I never watched Glee. I've only now seen like clips of it that Carol will be like, oh my gosh, this show's so funny. This is the show was so crazy. And I watch clips and there's like full-on like social crimes that on any given day in 2026 she would be fully cancelled for the show would be over. And not in like a boomer way of like you couldn't make that show today. Just that's getting crazy.

SPEAKER_05 20:28

But at the time it was like calling them gay losers.

SPEAKER_01 20:31

But that was like um Did they did that? Je ne sais quoi?

SPEAKER_05 20:35

It was like it was like oh ha ha ha.

SPEAKER_01 20:37

Like pushing, moving forward. What's the word I'm looking for? Like that was like progressive at the time of it being like, oh my gosh, gays on TV, like being in glee. I rem I remember that being like the narrative. Are you watching Modern Family? I'm watching Modern Family. Are you enjoying it? I feel the same way about season one of Modern Family. Yeah. Where the things, like every punchline for the two gay dads is like, can he get any gayer? Like, that's like everything. Welcome back. Caredafoya, everybody. Caratefoya. We're talking about Modern Family. Annie sent me a crazy text. I'll tell you about it after.

SPEAKER_05 21:15

We were sitting here and I was playing with my phone and it like just texted a message and I wasn't even looking at it.

SPEAKER_01 21:21

She was saying, I need a full body scan regarding her brain tumor that she thinks she has.

SPEAKER_05 21:29

I need a full body scan.

SPEAKER_01 21:31

And we caught the whole thing on the podcast. I'll take a full body, please. Thank you. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_05 21:36

Your body is full with another body right now.

SPEAKER_00 21:40

Alright.

SPEAKER_06 21:40

It's not even too full. She's too full. She's still.

SPEAKER_00 21:44

Get that, baby. She's standing on business on that one.

SPEAKER_01 21:46

Yep. Um, yeah. I'm loving Modern Family though. It's very funny and charming, and I'm loving watching it.

SPEAKER_05 21:52

Will you watch Psych Next?

SPEAKER_01 21:54

No. Why not? Because Annie told me to. And I've Requested Annie watch about a dozen TV shows.

SPEAKER_05 22:03

Give me one that I haven't seen. She'll watch it. She just has to listen to it.

SPEAKER_01 22:07

She has to listen to it before bed while she's brushing her teeth. Oh, let me watch it on my phone while I'm not watching it. Okay. I've been reading Are you back on SMUT or what are you on?

SPEAKER_06 22:18

Reading on your phone is horrible.

SPEAKER_01 22:20

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 22:21

Well, I'm sorry, guys. Beggars can't be choosers. Reading on your phone is so bad.

SPEAKER_01 22:27

It's not the intended format.

SPEAKER_03 22:28

What's the difference of like scrolling for an hour than reading? Small format.

SPEAKER_05 22:32

And that's how I feel.

SPEAKER_01 22:33

Small format. Oh, you're saying versus.

SPEAKER_05 22:35

If I'm already on my phone, I'd rather read on a book than just different formats for different applications.

SPEAKER_06 22:46

Annie's gonna lose her eyesight in like a few minutes.

SPEAKER_03 22:48

Well, if she's gonna be on the phone, you don't know. Hey, hold on. Hold on. She could have the text really large, which is the same.

SPEAKER_06 22:53

You don't.

SPEAKER_03 22:54

You can have the text super tiny text.

SPEAKER_01 22:57

Nope. But we have to decide what's better. If Annie's gonna be on the phone, is it better to be reading or is it better to be doom scrolling brainwork?

SPEAKER_03 23:04

No different than doom scrolling. I think it's exactly the same. You're talking about the effect your screen having to do it.

SPEAKER_01 23:10

Oh, you're talking about the effect of your brain.

SPEAKER_05 23:12

I totally fall asleep. My phone is like boiling hot, and I open it, it's on the same page I left it on.

SPEAKER_01 23:17

I'm like, I'm saying for her and by the way, if you try to wake her up, there's no shots. No shots. I'm talking in regards to her brain tumor. Is if if she's going to be on the phone, she might as well read a book. Yeah. And not scroll, doom scroll.

SPEAKER_03 23:34

But maybe you should read a book. What's that? There was uh there's a company that makes like uh it's like learn new things, and it basically turns like learning new things into social media posts. And it's like it's like better than scrolling dumb social media. You can actually learn a few learn some things, and I'm like, what is going on? Are we like we're like literally like dumbing ourselves down? Oh, the only time they'll they'll actually pay attention is if they can just scroll and skip stuff they're not interested in. So we're gonna put a bunch of random things into things like tiles, and then they can just swipe through it. They might learn something.

SPEAKER_01 24:05

I remember seeing somebody on TikTok take their packet from their college class and put it in AI and say, like, turn this into a YouTube video essay or like a scroll, like same kind of thing. So you could like learn your whole course, but it's like in the form of Doom Scrolling on YouTube or TikTok or whatever.

SPEAKER_05 24:24

I used to, yeah, I used to audio book my textbooks because they have the like voice to speech or whatever.

SPEAKER_01 24:30

Which is weird because the on air sign is off right now. Oh, that's what's so weird about that.

SPEAKER_05 24:35

Okay, stop the tape, let's start again.

SPEAKER_01 24:37

Hold on. Let's just start over from from scratch.

SPEAKER_03 24:40

I was gonna tell you guys my brother-in-law's works for a company that just developed a product that just came out, and it's called Second Brain. Heard right now. Yeah, you watched the video, right? Yeah. And um, it's literally like an AI thing that listens to all your meetings and then it cre it like takes notes for you. Horrible. It's very interesting. It's really horrible. It's very interesting. And it's like and it's like flips onto your phone. The whole and my brother-in-law's in the ad, which we're all very excited about. But at the same time, he's like, in the ad, he's like, he's like, let me check my second brain to see if and I'm like, it's not it's not his company or the app. It's more like that's kind of the world we're living in now, which is like he's not his company's not the only one making stuff like this. But I'm just like, are we really in that realm?

SPEAKER_06 25:24

That means you're never you're never going to digest what was in that meeting. You're going to it's gonna go over your head and you're gonna go, I'm gonna listen to it later, and then you're never gonna listen to it.

SPEAKER_01 25:38

No, no, to all of those applications. They'll maybe use it that way or not. This is a a way that they can sell it to any corporation, any company, and be like, oh great, fire all your interns now because you have this. Oh, yeah. You don't need to say that's that's gonna save tens of thousands of dollars, you know, benefits, the whole deal. All those note takers, all those personal sites.

SPEAKER_03 26:00

I thought of secretaries for sure. For sure. This thing also like it connects all your apps like Slack and communication, so it literally keeps track of all that stuff. And I'm like, that's literally what somebody's got courtroom. For sure it's called.

SPEAKER_01 26:10

Same thing, that's probably on its way out, too. Um, those guys are actually very still like purist. Like I've seen people on TikTok talk about their jobs.

SPEAKER_05 26:19

I remember being in a coffee shop and someone was training, like was studying for it, and they have their little machine. The little machine, the shorthand machine. It's very impressive. But you get to customize yourself. Yeah, and you basically listen to it.

SPEAKER_03 26:31

Like their tests and stuff are like you listen to a transcript and you have to like you know what's crazy about those is that they they like Kiro's saying, they develop their own system. So you can't just pick up a stenographer's like like the readings from the machine. Only they can read it.

SPEAKER_01 26:46

I had a coworker that'd be so that was her job. She would like do that, but like she wouldn't be in like major courtrooms or anything.

SPEAKER_06 26:54

She did it on the side.

SPEAKER_01 26:55

She would do like little um depositions or like just like kind of private that kind of stuff.

SPEAKER_06 27:01

Oh, that'd be so cool.

SPEAKER_01 27:02

The whole keyboard's like eight keys or something. She was doing it during COVID.

SPEAKER_06 27:06

Like over Zoom. Like she would be on the Zoom.

SPEAKER_01 27:09

And it's like you're not typing letters to spell out a word. It's like sounds. Like it's like f I so you can like fully like press all the buttons. That's so strange. I feel like I kind of feel like you would be good at that, Annie.

SPEAKER_05 27:20

I think that'd be so cool because I love it's not it's not a matter, it's not a matter of like, do I like being efficient in typing? I love hearing the gossip.

SPEAKER_00 27:29

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 27:29

I want to be in the courtroom and I want to be like, oh shit.

SPEAKER_03 27:32

Yeah, but I don't think I really don't think you're listening at that level. I think you're probably so focused on just documenting that you're not able to like you you're probably listening to it when you go back and re-wr.

SPEAKER_01 27:43

So that's when you would turn on your second brain and be like, tell me what the gossip was today. I wasn't listening, I was diaping. I was type. Okay, great. Here's what it was.

SPEAKER_03 27:51

It's wild to me that that hasn't changed with all like you know, technology now where you can literally full like what's the case.

SPEAKER_05 27:56

Because what if well I think it the unfortunately technology still can be hacked. You can't, I mean, you I guess you could hack Betty the st you know, stenographer by slipping her like a thousand dollars or something, but like I feel like you could easily sway a stenographer more than you could doctor a video.

SPEAKER_03 28:11

I mean, just like from the the college.

SPEAKER_05 28:13

Yeah, video, but I mean like if but I'm thinking more in a courtroom, like the safety of like what happens to the city.

SPEAKER_01 28:18

Somebody tapping into it, somebody could hack it into the city. Hack the records and be like, oh, what what did that say back there? Oh, he confessed, oh you know, I don't know. But um Okay, I think there's I mean, call me a romantic, but I think there's some things that humans still do that like technology can never do. Like I think for for one, like I think surgeons are safe. Like, I don't know what tech I know they're doing open hearted. They I know they did surgery on a grape. I get it. Like they're always developing that technology, but I think that I'll always trust a human more than I'll be.

SPEAKER_03 28:53

I'll always trust a human and the like an autonomous surgery on a grape? Oh, yeah, they did surgery on a grape. It's a video of them showing them like Oh, you're talking about when they have the control over the little the arms.

SPEAKER_06 29:04

Okay, I thought there was like a big robotic arm. Yeah, I know those.

SPEAKER_01 29:09

But I'm also talking about the tactility too, of like hand to scalpel to fixing a human. I think there's a lot of that that like you'll never be able to recreate. Sure didn't amaze me.

SPEAKER_03 29:20

I I seriously I think about the idea that there are people like like millions across the world that literally just they cut open people and they're able to fix whatever it is, and then they sew mark up, and I'm like, no wonder they get a god complex. Are you kidding me? For sure. If I could do that, I would be absolutely ruined. It is cool. Yeah, that's like the Da Vinci machine, right? Where they have the extension that is very interesting. But you know, I mean, like, imagine like you, yeah, again, they have lots of procedure and it's like obviously really like safe, but I'm like, in theory, if you know how to do that, yeah, you could like you could genuinely do a version of that anywhere at any time.

SPEAKER_01 30:02

Oh yeah, for sure. That's wild to me. Getting the call on a on a uh on a flight. Who, you know, is there a doctor in the house? I haven't.

SPEAKER_03 30:09

You probably haven't seen her, but the doctor um on TikTok. Her n her name is uh Dr. Pimple Popper. I've seen her. No, no, no. She's a she's a she's a a back surgeon, spinal surgeon person, but she's in like the Midwest and she is like one of the best in the country, and she's on TikTok. She makes she's a big influencer too. And she is so rich. And I I get it, right? Because she does like all these on calls, and again, she's like one of the premier specialists. Dr. Grunch is her name is her name. But she's a Dr. Grunch. And she's a she's a neuroslash spinal surgeon. And the reason she got into it is because her mom got an accident, broke her neck, and then like it inspired her to like learn everything about the brain, neuro, back, spinal cord. And but like the stuff, she's got like a Lamborghini and like all these crazy cars, and she has like this big house. You can tell you can just tell she doesn't worry about money. Sure. Which is such an interesting thing to watch. I know we do that a lot in the media.

SPEAKER_01 31:08

Well, think about the exchange that like I wonder how many surgeries she's messed up, but how many people she's like accidentally like paralyzed or something. Like on her on your way to being that, like what the exchange is like your job is so so high risk. Yeah, but like, yeah, you're she's obviously limited up.

SPEAKER_05 31:27

Yeah, they don't survive. But like it's like you did maybe you did everything you did right and they still they still don't.

SPEAKER_03 31:31

It's gotta be an insanely high pressure. I mean, obviously a high pressure job, but it's well to watch her because she's also she like sh you know that she does it, but then on social media she seems so like human because she's just doing like TikTok dances and like primarily like you know, sharing about her job, but then you see like she'll occasionally do like a clip of her getting ready for to go into the OR, or sometimes it's even like very moderated clips of like a surgery, and I'm like, oh wait, like she fully cuts people open. And I'm like crazy, it's wild.

SPEAKER_01 32:00

It is so crazy to me. I think their jobs are safe from AI. I think, or at least if they're not, I think they should be. Um obviously I've I've shared my my thoughts on the arts and why I think that they should just keep AI out of the arts and movies and graphics and all that.

SPEAKER_03 32:17

I I you know what, and I think I think you're I think you're right. I think there is gonna be a lot of people.

SPEAKER_06 32:22

Very much.

SPEAKER_01 32:23

Oh my gosh. And now what do you think about AI?

SPEAKER_05 32:28

And Lucy, what do you think about AI?

SPEAKER_01 32:31

She's probably elbowing my stuff. She's part of me, so I can't be right.

SPEAKER_05 32:37

She's the part that made your house a a smart house.

SPEAKER_01 32:41

I dumbed the house. Well that part didn't make it. I dumbed it. Why'd you dumb the house? Because I don't like smart house. Because every day our Wi-Fi was disconnecting from the lights, and every day it was like rebooting, and my kitchen light was blinking. And Kara would be like, yeah, ghost light.

SPEAKER_06 32:57

There was an entire week that just the kitchen light would start in the middle of the night going on off, on off. And it just disc it disconnected from the light bulb.

SPEAKER_01 33:07

And a light should switch on when you switch it, and it's should switch off when you switched off. And that's what I did.

SPEAKER_03 33:12

I had a weird moment where we have it's not a smart light, but we uh we have a timered light in our bathroom for like the the air the vent and the and the light one thing. And I I forgot that I turned it on, and I forgot that it was like it kind of became blended into my environment last night when I was watching a show, and all of a sudden it went off, and I literally had to look over there and be like, wait, what changed? Because like I couldn't I couldn't like place what changed. And but I and I for some reason I thought something had moved, but obviously it was still light, and it was really freaky. And I and it's never happened to me. Like I've obviously I've seen it turned off, but like I just it was weird, like I got so accustomed to the environment, and then like that one little thing changed, and I was like, the thing that changes a lot in our house is the Airbnb that we see from our bedroom window.

SPEAKER_06 33:53

Yeah. At the last two nights, whatever room is right adjacent to our window, there's been a bright light on in that room all night. That sucks.

SPEAKER_03 34:06

I don't know. Wow. I'm with you that I know. That's why I dumb the house. I think I'm I'm generally a pretty pro dumb house because I I like you, I I did the full automation and then I kind of grew like that. I'm the same way. It's like when the it's funny because the power doesn't often go out, or like, you know, vice versa, the Wi-Fi doesn't often go out. But like when it does, it is so inconvenient.

SPEAKER_01 34:28

I was that was like my biggest thing of like I can't let my house like keep me. I I felt like I was being held hostage by my house, being like, oh, I gotta like you know, baby the Wi-Fi. It's supposed to be smart, but now I'm doing this extra task of like reconnecting the lights to the phone, and that just makes no sense to me.

SPEAKER_03 34:47

I do think at some level, too. This is gonna sound conspiracy theorist, of course. I do think like all of that is definitely being collected at some level. Like that's why even Alexa, I'm like, I like the thing I like about Alexa is that you can like she'll play music and you can like vibe, but like then you start to go like, yeah, but is she listening to everything? It's like and then I like I said, I had the full our old studio was wired. Like literally the old studio used to, when we used to lose Sling Studio, we they there was outlets that turned on for two hours to recharge the packs every time.

SPEAKER_01 35:22

I remember I remember specific episodes of the podcast you'd be like, okay, hold on. And you would like talk to the who was the we'd have to ask Alexa to control the air. Like we couldn't talk right to the air. We had to talk to Alexa to talk to the air.

SPEAKER_03 35:36

But it was wild. You could really get to the city.

SPEAKER_05 35:39

Yes, it did.

SPEAKER_03 35:41

Yes, yes, yes, yes. I it was so it was so dialed, and I remember being like, I I enjoyed it. And I even had like I even had it to like where because I used to work from home down there and it was cold in the morning, and I used to have the AC kick on, I mean the heater kick on at a certain time. I'd come down, it was like warm, and the lights were on, it was ready to go. It was like very wild.

SPEAKER_05 36:01

But now you have you have to have an app for everything.

SPEAKER_03 36:04

I know.

SPEAKER_05 36:04

And I kind of I'm kind of behind I heard Ryan say this, and I was like, you know what, I'm behind that too. Of like, why is every appliance in my house needing its own app?

SPEAKER_01 36:12

Do you know why I said that? Do you remember? Is because we got this baby thing that's a light light. Sound the hatch hatch. Are you a big hatch guy? Yeah. I I'm already over.

SPEAKER_06 36:25

He immediately opened the box and went, there's a freaking app.

SPEAKER_01 36:27

There's an app. Yeah, but you don't you I don't use the app that often. You don't use the app?

SPEAKER_03 36:30

Because you touch the ring and it turns out.

SPEAKER_01 36:32

And I had to like program it to have a sound and a light. Uh-huh. But then that's the end of the app.

SPEAKER_03 36:37

I have three levels. I have like like 70% light and like 50% volume, and then you touch it again, it goes to like it goes to lower light but more sound as he's getting sleepier. And then the third ring is uh it's like rain. If I it's like a rain noise. I never use that one. Okay. But I I'm willing to figure it out. I'm gonna figure it out because you're well in my own.

SPEAKER_01 36:58

My nightmare right now is an integrated app.

SPEAKER_03 37:01

But also I'll say this what saves me on the app is like if Jordan is nap-trapped, like she's got her arm underneath him and he's asleep, but she's but he's ready for bed, but he's she's worried about waking up, she'll just text me, Hey, can you turn the hatch on? I go to the app, I hit foam, and it turns on for her. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 37:16

So the app is worth it because regarding the nap trap.

SPEAKER_03 37:19

Yeah, because if you get nap trapped, um your partner can can save you in that sense. And that that's been helpful. But yes, I agree. I I generally agree with you on that.

SPEAKER_06 37:27

Also, when they're in the crib and you don't want to walk all the way to the room.

SPEAKER_03 37:31

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 37:31

I get it. Okay.

SPEAKER_06 37:33

You can change the setting on the page.

SPEAKER_01 37:36

And I I'll say I also download myself into a corner where a lot of these apps are just on my phone.

SPEAKER_03 37:41

And once you set it up, you in theory can delete the app because, like I said, it remembers the programs. And like I'm so used to the gestures now. Like you you touch and hold the ring and it turns off that literally, like, I don't really go to the app unless, again, unless Jordan. I was in Germany. I was in Germany, and Jordan was like, Can you turn the hatch on? I was like, sure.

SPEAKER_06 37:59

He downloaded the app and pressed started, and it goes, Okay, your three months free has started. And I went.

SPEAKER_01 38:04

Like my three months free. Yeah. Okay. You have to pay for it? Well, it's like $20 a year. There's premium services. There's premium services.

SPEAKER_06 38:12

But when you when you download the app, it immediately is like, okay, three months done. And I'm like, Three months for free? You shouldn't have even opened the app yet.

SPEAKER_05 38:20

That's a that's a load of shit. That's what I'm saying. I'm sorry. That's insane.

SPEAKER_01 38:24

That's not a my problem because I turned on the free subscription. It's a them problem.

SPEAKER_05 38:29

First of all, I shouldn't have a subscription to the nightlight I bought for my kids.

SPEAKER_01 38:32

That's Black Mirror right there. That is the.

SPEAKER_06 38:34

I have a feeling the premium one is like, add your own sound. Right.

SPEAKER_03 38:37

It does. And you know what's crazy? Kind of creepy, but you know there's a feature in the premium that I never did it. You can send a link to your family members and they'll record little messages and it'll integrate it into the music.

SPEAKER_06 38:48

Oh, that's creepy. Nope.

SPEAKER_03 38:49

Nope.

SPEAKER_06 38:50

I don't want to hear that from the other room. You hear me?

SPEAKER_04 38:52

You know what I'd be doing. You know what I'd be doing.

SPEAKER_00 38:54

I'd be like, There's a person in here. Come get your baby.

SPEAKER_01 38:59

You're recording messages. I'm just kidding. It's me, Auntie Annie.

SPEAKER_04 39:05

Just like I'm going to be able to do it. I'm on vacation, Raven.

SPEAKER_03 39:09

You're having the worst nightmare of your life.

SPEAKER_00 39:17

So horrible.

SPEAKER_03 39:18

No, it is weird. Hey, Lucy. I think it is. Let me admit. Let me amend it. Let me admit it.

SPEAKER_05 39:26

I feel like a radio show. You can set the lights too. Oops, I did it again.

SPEAKER_01 39:32

You are listening to ANI Radio. They're bringing you the best hits from the hat. Coming in at number 10, we've got Starships, Nicki Minaj. It's me seeing it.

SPEAKER_03 39:46

Hold on. Let me let me let me narrow the view for you, okay? I remember remembering the details. It's 90 seconds. Okay. And it happens at the beginning. It happens at the beginning when you turn it on. That's it. It's random. Different message when you start it. And then it plays whatever you're going to play. I can do that. A bunch of them. And coming in at number three.

SPEAKER_05 40:06

How much is that?

SPEAKER_01 40:07

It's 20 bucks a month. He said. No, I looked it up. It's more, but it's yearly. I'm not using it. I'm just going to say. It's $50 a year. $20 a year. $50 a month.

SPEAKER_00 40:17

Maybe shit.

SPEAKER_03 40:19

I don't think I need it actually, because I never use the premium functions out of the way.

SPEAKER_01 40:23

You know what? Unless you want to send us that link, and we'll start recording stuff for Jack.

SPEAKER_05 40:26

I will record things for Jack.

SPEAKER_01 40:28

He's getting old enough to know better, so. By the way, we would not be sending you fools a link. I'll tell you that much.

SPEAKER_03 40:34

It's not like grandma.

SPEAKER_01 40:35

Hey, Jack, just want to let you know. In this house, we don't use AI.

SPEAKER_03 40:40

Yeah, you're going to be able to do it. Do you think we're the end of the moon?

SPEAKER_01 40:44

I don't think so. It's your Uncle Ryan telling you that JFK was killed by the FBI. Coming in at number three. Here is Rockabi Baby. I like the idea of using Jack Radio voices. And I'm sitting down with the Jack FM.

SPEAKER_00 41:00
