Well, yeah, because we just we missed last Friday because of the holidays here in the US But we're gonna be talking about the game awards that were last night Particularly about Zelda, but we'll talk about other things and Lamar even has some thoughts on Final Fantasy to share with us But before we get into all that CNBC reports Pandora is in early talks with Sirius XM about an acquisition while Reuters Says no Pandora is making no effort to sell itself. So maybe they're both true Lamar and yes I'm not trying but Sirius XM is like come on. Let me bite. Come on. They just let it happen. Yeah We're not making any effort, but if they won't Starting today, you can stream 4k content from Hulu on Xbox one s and the PlayStation 4 pro including Oh, the Hulu originals and 20 James Bond films, you know, I did not know who we were head 4k That is news to me. They didn't until today. So it's just those 20 films plus the Hulu originals Like 11 22 63 and such. Excellent. Yeah. Now here are some more top stories Europol the US Department of Justice German law enforcement Efforts from law enforcement in more than 40 countries all teamed up together to shut down more than 50 Avalanche botnet servers on Thursday law enforcement officials actually seized 39 commander control servers physically and took control of more than 800,000 internet domains They conducted five arrests searches across five countries the shadow server Foundation a secretive cabal. No, it's just a nonprofit group of security professionals But I love the name. Good job scary professionals know how to name things the shadow server foundation collaborated with law enforcement for 18 months on this operation So Avalanche was it was a botnet that had sent spam like all botnets started in its younger years And then it sort of died off in functionality for a while and most lately had been delivering ransomware You know locking up companies hard drives even to police stations sometimes Have they yet to find the 11-year-old who's responsible for it? They have arrested Five five people out of all these countries. No, I don't know that they're there. They're probably adults But yeah, they've arrested five people in connection with this. It doesn't take a lot to run a botnet. I'm surprised It's five to be honest Yeah, but yeah, this is this is the stuff that Movies about hackers should be made of I think The chief of the FCC's wireless telecommunications bureau John Wilkins here in the United States Sent a letter to AT&T regarding its practice of zero rating its own direct TV now service Wilkins wrote that AT&T's justification of the practice and I quote Tends to confirm our initial view that the sponsored data program Strongly favors AT&T's own video offerings while unreasonably discriminating against unaffiliated edge providers and limiting their ability to offer competing video services To AT&T's broadband subscribers on a level playing field The FCC does not ban zero rating, but it evaluates its harm to competition and consumers on a case-by-case basis Now after this preliminary decision AT&T has until december 15th to respond Before the decision becomes final and Wilkins also sent a letter thursday to Verizon Starting off the process of evaluating its practice of zero rating Verizon's own go 90 service Now isn't it's the same thing that T T mobile's been doing for a while with their With what they will put it down to 480p, you know the video and we'll give it to our customers free Yeah, and in fact the FCC investigated that practice and the difference was Because T mobile isn't charging anyone to do it And because T mobile doesn't operate any of the services that it's zero rating the FCC said For now there weren't going to rule that it was a violation Whereas AT&T is charging people and and and the FCC says you're charging people a lot to do this We would like to know more about how you charge, but also Zero rating its own service with direct tv now Yeah, because I saw the details of the service it looks into you know, just like a sling or something like that, but uh Yeah, yeah, the fact that they're giving their wireless customers unlimited data is uh, I mean If I was on AT&T, I would be happy with that. I guess I I don't get jealous on T mobile that I don't have that but You bring up an interesting point if you get direct tv satellite service And you subscribe to AT&T wireless at the same time you can get unlimited Which case you don't have to be zero rated. There's no reason for that. Yeah, whereas if you get direct tv now They don't give you that same deal They zero rate just the direct tv now service Which basically says if i'm the kind of person who only uses my mobile device to watch tv And I want a service i'm probably going to pick direct tv now Because otherwise sling and playstation view would count against my data cap. Yeah Good point. Twitter announced the acquisition of mobile app startup. Yes The company however is saying no to its two current apps wid and frenzy. Those will be shut down Uh, twitter will roll the yes team into their overall staff. By the way, no relation to the band So they were on the beat of hannerson briefed wakeman and how joining twitter However, ceo of yes, keith colman Does become twitter's vice president of product a position that's been vacant since jeff sebert left it in june And a lot of people have pointed out that keith colman has posted to twitter 143 times in nine years which Is a lot less than say a jack dorsi. I'm just saying yeah, yeah, I post that in a day So that you know, I should be the president Wow, yeah, but I never heard of it I never heard of yes It's weird how somebody's apps Come around and get acquired and you're like, wait a minute. Wait. What were they doing? It's kind of, you know, one is what do you want these quieter apps? These apps were snapchat like competitors. They were messaging competitors And so it makes people think that twitter wants to do more in that space The way facebook has been doing with its own messenger service. Oh the way instagram has also been doing So I I I think that is a little bit of a stretch for twitter I'm curious about what that means. Are they going to do filters? Are they going to do live video chats? Uh, it it could work more with periscope, I suppose, right? Yeah, yeah, I will say with periscope Yeah, twitter itself is it's an interesting beast. It's like everybody has to use it, but it's not growing right Well, it's it's a it's interesting conundrum Well, and so maybe that's the key in getting somebody like colman Who on average has only posted to twitter 16 times a year in his nine years Who has an outside view? He's not somebody who's who's been in the twitter mind He's the kind of person they want to get back to using twitter more often So maybe that's the right perspective always to optimize town I'm just trying to I'm just trying to come up with something Because yeah, I mean he's going to be the vp of product He's the guy who says this is what twitter should be and he was working on snapchat like competitors up to now He's not the vp of product for just periscope or something like that So this this will be interesting to see Intel announced it will work with amazon to create a reference design for an intel-based smart speaker using alexa voice services I'm going to call them avs from now on so I don't have to slur the name So it doesn't set up your amazon echo avs. Thank you very nice amazon will also release an sdk for avs alongside the hardware design Intel said the project is intended to help hardware manufacturers accelerate the development of voice enabled devices Essentially amazon and intel would like people to just come up with their own Smart speakers to compete with the amazon echo or better yet do different things than what amazon is providing The jam voice speakers for example were introduced thursday from a company called jam that makes bluetooth speakers and they are Portable speakers that have avs built inside The designs from intel and amazon should be made available in q1 Yeah, I've seen these different bluetooth speakers a couple of them even hit me up to try to give me to Talk about them. It's interesting. They're they're they're not affiliated with amazon Except for the avs service And and I kind of like what they're doing with that. I really spreads out the uh avs Sir, I really wanted to say the name but I'll hold of it It really spreads that service out. Um, I mean you you think that that that puts it puts the other ones in danger Like siri or or google with I this is interesting Stacey Higginbotham had a really good point of view in her newsletter That you should absolutely subscribe to saying that What amazon has done and what these speakers have done with google home and such Is say it's not about the voice assistant anymore. It's about the voice interface It's about getting it right like how do we want to best speak to these things And I look at this and I think this is really smart For amazon to say we want to be the people who own that interface So we don't mind if you make a device that competes with the echo anymore Then we mind putting the amazon kindle app On an ios tablet or an android tablet because we are owning the ecosystem for for kindle books in that case They want to own that interface for avs So if uh, uh a home a homebuilder company because I know siri apple is doing this with uh With with the apple home, but if a homebuilder company wanted to Make make smarter homes amazon could put their service and they could just be an omni present Service that's in the house with your speakers and microphones everywhere and become really cool And intel would like to sell them the chips that go in those devices that they put in the house, right? Yeah, so it's a match made in heaven Following right on justin robert young and myself talking about wearables in the future of the wearables market on yesterday's show Lenovo's moto division announced it has no plans to release a smart watch After the release of android wear 2.0 next year if you recall several manufacturers including lenovo Delayed their smart watch releases because google delayed android wear, right? Uh, so now the head of global product development shakil barkat stated that wearables do not have brought enough appeal To warrant a yearly product cycle. He said they'll revisit the category as the market changes But for now motorola is just stepping away from wearables You know, I I can't A sense is really stuck with me that it doesn't have another pill to warrant a yearly product cycle Like when I got the new apple watch, it's like I bought it because this is what I do for work, but Yeah, I I kind of see the point there It's it's not something you should be having to buy once a year. Uh, so I think I think they're on to something Yeah with the fitbit Lower forecast of earnings That we mentioned on yesterday's show with lenovo with these delays of android wear and now moto just kind of saying We're delayed indefinitely a lot of people are down on the wearables market But I honestly think that if fitbit does acquire pebble or not Uh, I I think that wearables do have a future I think we're seeing that nobody has figured out what that future is because Overall wearable sales have been rising to tablet levels So really well people will buy them that was the big the thing we talked about yesterday I'm gonna we haven't nobody has cracked exactly why yet So this is this is the downtime For that and moto backing away from that says well lenovo is just not even bothering to figure that out till they figure that out They're not going to make a wearable, which is probably a good idea. Yeah Finally archive.org received a national security letter in august demanding the name address length of service analyst Of all accounts used by one of the archive's supposed subscribers Archive.org challenged it And the associated gag order you may or may not realize national security letters There's almost always come with a gag order that says you can't tell anyone you received This request much less anything about it. Uh in november the usfbi gave permission to archive to publish the letter With the details about the target of the surveillance redacted Because the existence of the letter itself did not pose a threat to national security This is the second time archive.org has successfully Contested the gag order on a national security level. They were able to reveal that they received one in 2007 as well The eff assisted archive with this but bruster kale and archive.org and the eff are all trying to say look You shouldn't just roll over when they bring you an nsl We should we should fight for the right to admit that these exist that itself doesn't violate security Of course, we're not going to say who the target was Of course, we're not going to talk about what information May or may not have been transacted because it is a criminal case But let's make it clear how many times these things are requested Of course, I gotta sneeze. Oh, yeah. Oh, sorry. Oh god. I feel better now Wow, it's so funny. Your sneeze almost sounded like a company name Yeah, it's just we're how that works. Yeah Uh, no, this is this is they're the rollover kings. That's all if that was the name This I don't even know what you mean the row. You mean your sneeze? Yeah. Yeah, let's go with it Okay. All right. We'll go with that Meanwhile, uh archive.org showing the way that if you are some yay who doesn't think you can object to this You can you can you can you can fight it and win and and that's the thing the more people who do The more common it will be for these national security letters to come without a gag order Automatically and just redact the information that needs to be redacted. Absolutely. The fact that's that I mean, we know they're sending nsl I don't oh daily. Yeah Uh, thanks to all those who participate in our subreddit. You can submit stories and vote on them at daily tech news show dot reddit dot com Yesterday at the game awards right here in los angeles california Uh, there were loads of awards giving overwatch did Gangbusters in uh sweeping away the awards. They did. Yeah, uh, jeff kealy did a great job hosting again And uh, overall people are starting to have and and for the gaming community This is this is a tall order a positive feeling about a game award show Wait, wait, you mean spike tv in the years past didn't do a great I can't even say it with a laugh I'm not gonna appreciate spike tv. This guy's had a hard job. Uh, it's a different different kind of job. Yeah Jeff kealy has has turned this thing around where it is respectable. It is a it is a great show I I actually absolutely, uh, you know, I was I was supposed to be there But I had some health issues that I mean I I overslept My body my body was dead. I couldn't like I couldn't function yesterday But the the parts the parts I didn't watch, you know, he he's just a class actor and he I know he worked really hard I talked to him And I know he worked really hard on this So it was good to see pretty much flawless And the the winners were were the ones I would expect As someone who sort of just keeps tabs from the outside for the most part overwatch gets best e-sports game Overwatch gets best game direction cloud nine best e-sports team forza horizon three best racing game I hear everyone talking about that pokemon go best family for civilization six best strategy game street fighter five best fighting game And so on and so on But the other thing that makes this a fun award show is the the trailers It becomes a release event a news event Zelda breath of the wild showed two trailers one showing snippets of the world with monsters and you can see a little dog Walking along the other showing a sequence with link speaking to a bird-headed quest giver named cast And a battle against a lizard creature called lasals and I'll be honest even with the you know questionable resolution of the That that put this out and and of course my own screen that i'm watching on youtube This is still like amazing Okay, so not to get deep into this but i'm glad you led with that so they don't all yell at me in the emails necessarily But am i the only one that cannot i mean i think i looked at the gameplay i played the game myself That e3 brand privately i i think the gameplay is great. I think the story is great I cannot stand the the the visuals i i don't it's it's in between cartoony and realistic and i don't It's it's almost like a pencil lining around the characters or i don't i don't know i i see what they're doing Maybe it's in my eyes because everybody else in the comments the video loves the graphics And maybe it's just me. Maybe i'm old. I need to get some glasses I'm okay with that. I agree with you as far as quality of the graphics themselves Yeah, i just thought it'd be a more realistic game that ocarina tug at my heart still kicked in Yeah, no, i know what you're saying it's it's close to that and i don't know i i'm looking forward to the final product product on the Switch itself, maybe it'll be a little bit tighter there It just like there was one part where where they were doing the tag Tim gaming and he was like he pointed at a big serpent and you couldn't see I I couldn't detect it was a serpent until you got really close because it looked like a big rock It just looked muddy. I i don't know i'ma stop But i'm looking forward to the game, but i didn't like i didn't care for that Yeah, yeah, i don't think anyone would argue with you about the quality of the graphics It's all about whether there's enough they will be people whether there's enough Well, no, I don't think people argue with the quality. I think they'll say it's still was fun to watch It still looks great. It reminds me of link because I get an emotional connection still too. Oh, no, I agree with that That's what that's what i said. I loved it and with me playing final fantasy now It was nice to see like man. That's right. Nintendo has a game It's gonna take 80 hours to play as well. I can't wait for that. Yeah. Yeah Hideo Kojima who created Metal Gear Solid if you didn't know Launched, uh, I'm sorry received the industry icon award Remember there was controversy over the fact that he wasn't able to go to the awards last year Last year was just ridiculous let it out of his room. He was able to show up And then showed off a trailer for the ps4 exclusive death stranding Which is really weird. Did you watch it? It's yeah, it's it's uh, yeah I don't know how to explain that game. Well, it's got uh Guillermo del Toro the filmmaker Uh and Mads Mickelson with tentacles and a baby I mean, I don't really I don't think I can't explain it anymore. You got to go watch it at that point Kojima for you. Uh, there were also new trailers for mass effect and drameda pray dude The mass effect at drameda was pretty wasn't it dude And did you watch it in 4k because it was stoning to look at and just and the gameplay Like this is the first mass effect game. I'm really excited about playing. I love sci-fi and it's just if it holds the promise of Truly going to different worlds and doing different things because you know, there's another game to say that too You know about making a whole bunch of yeah making a whole bunch of worlds and didn't go through but it looks amazing I'm so I'm really excited about that one I also got a brief teaser for the telltale games guardian of the galaxy episodic project Telltale great at these episodic projects and guardians an awesome Piece of content to play in I hope they do it. Well, I'm sure yeah That's gonna be interesting. Yeah, because I'm still going I'm still a little behind on the batman one, but they're doing a good job on the batman one So I'm like, okay, let's see what I think they can do some good stuff with that And finally phoenix labs, which is made up of former riot and bioware devs showed a teaser for their co-op adventure game called dauntless Uh, I I am not well versed in this space But from the buzz that I see people seem to think this was a potential threat to The other mmo or or the other um much mccollis in the space Yeah, it's it's a free to play game if I'm not mistaken. So yeah, it'll be interesting to see I mean it looked it looked decent, but but yeah anything like that that you can get in Free from the ground up this people always look at that as a threat. I think it'll be And then the only other thing I want to note here is that uh Nolan north won an award, uh for best performance as nathan drake in uncharted four And while accepting the award With everyone in the audience, uh, if you don't realize that everyone in this audience did realize that voice actors are on strike They're part of sag after us. So voice actors that are union are on strike He said I hear a lot of talk lately about how performance matters Oh, okay, so he's gonna talk about the voice actor thing It does the performance of every designer every programmer every artist every hardworking talented person That performance is so important their performance matters more than mine So if you were wondering where he was going with this It does sound like he put the voice actors strike Under the bus, but in a way that was saying Because there are so many people who work on these games who deserve to be compensated well too So some people were trying to say well. No, he wasn't saying the voice actors didn't have a point He's saying that the graphic designers who have always historically been been treated ill also need to be treated well He he threw him under the bus There's no way to say that and to you know, I have a lot of voice voice actor friends and and you know This is an interesting time and i'm here for them. How they're, you know, they don't know what the game is They're working on You know, if it's a hit game They'll never know because they're gonna be paid kind of just crappy basic So there's a lot that needs to change for them I am signing with the with the voice actors on this one It was just a weird it was a weird speech though because if it was definitely throwing him under the bus Which I got to be honest. I'm with you. It does sound like he was saying we didn't we don't need to be on strike Then it's that's an odd departure for someone who's winning best voice actor on the other hand if he wasn't It was really poorly phrased And and I the only thing I could take out of positively is he's right all the people the designers the programmers the artists They all deserve recognition and yes, they do and to be compensated. Well also absolutely So Well, that was the game awards a little no no good award show doesn't have a little controversy from an acceptance speech So it even had that well done Yeah, absolutely. You mentioned final fantasy briefly. I know there you you were talking about this story that The xbox one and the ps4 pro. I guess the xbox one s of the ps4 pro Yeah Have different issues with final fantasy 15 and so you kind of depends on which one bothers you more Which one you want to play it on? Yeah, you know, I got I got the game Uh, I think either the day before the day the day of and I mean, it's a great Game if you're in a final fantasy lore if you're new, I mean even if you're new These type of games you're you're going to love it. It's one of those classic stories um, however I've been reading a lot of forms because I've noticed this the day I put it and I'm using the xbox one one s version um Everything looks good, but the characters and all the textures look soft And and a little blurry like you can't see the faces clear clearly and I'm wondering what's this done on purpose It's my I just bought a new tv. So I'm like, maybe this is my tv and I'm and I started to read this post and they're pouring in That the resolution is actually lower on xbox. That should 900 versus 1080p on playstation 4 pro But the it has a smoother game experience Whereas the playstation 4 pro has sharper images with the face But they can't hold the frame rate of even 30 frames per second So you get a lot of you know, people are getting stuttering a dropping of frames and I think that's actually more of an issue for gameplay Then the blurring is sharp and rough smooth and fuzzy That that should be a commercial for any any any I will buy any product Uh So so now that you know though now that you're like, okay, this is this is just what xbox is doing in order to get that smooth frame rate pacing Would you rather switch to ps4 and have the sharper butt jittery? I considered it because uh xbox did get you know, disclosure. They did give me the the uh final fantasy free on uh On on there's I was considering it, but you know after I read the article I was like I actually like that. I'm not having any stuttering any everything is playing really smoothly smoothly So I I think and I think some other people in an article were saying the same thing the commenters They rather have the smoother experience and I think I would too Quite a totally unrelated question though. Yeah, do you like crunchy or smooth peanut butter? I'm crunchy all the way. I'll see That's not it. There's no even hesitation. My theory was that you'd like the smooth and fuzzy gameplay and the smooth peanut butter But see it. There's no correlation. Nice try. I'm a complex man Yeah, if anyone doubted it before now, this this should stand as proof All right, anything else about the game before or it's before we move on Um, I the only other trailer that I really like was prey It was that that alien where you're you're stranded in space and you get some alien Powers and it's one of those you got to get off the ship at that straining like aliens itself. It's it's it's um But it looks really good and and I like it kind of had a and I'm Somebody I could be saying this from when I saw it. It felt like it was like a bio shock type of feel To the game initially Yeah, so I think that and it looks really clean because I think that would be a good game as well next year All right, let's get to our messages of the day. Uh, Jerry writes when Justin and tom were talking about Netflix and the offline play Yesterday, they were wishing that they could make a playlist Where their commonly watched shows Would show up I found you can actually do this with google play video The trick is when you purchase any video on google play You can go to youtube and it will be listed under your purchases from there You can add it to a youtube playlist like any other video I just made a playlist with every star trek in chronological order Plus fan videos around youtube the big downside is it's not a subscription service like netflix So you have to pay for all the videos of course, uh, but that is a cool little workaround if you've got google play videos or disney movies anywhere Where you can buy them on voodoo or itunes or amazon and have them show up in your google play account Yeah Absolutely, I they've thought about that before I guess I just watched things differently, but yeah, that's that's a really good tip Well, what justin and I were we're saying is sometimes you just want to turn on the tv to a channel That you know is going to play a movie you like and and justin was like Netflix needs to have that hbo experience for you. Uh, what something's just already on you just turn it on and be like Oh, they're playing harry potter, uh, the the fifth harry potter I just have that on you know while I do stuff and I and I added to that Like I would like to select the movies and shows that go into that the ones that I know I like to rewatch all the time and that that way I wouldn't know what it was going to play But it would always have something on I like I wonder how if that'll be annoying and I because I know I think it's the xbox app for netflix as soon as I like Highlight it like I flip on something and I'm reading it it starts playing it instantly Which is a little annoying like no, no, I didn't want to watch this. I'm just reading it But but no Netflix apps do that now and okay to hit the back button pretty fast I yeah, but I know you like your idea of autoplay, but I don't know if it affects that particular setting. Okay. Yeah I do like your idea though Then w scottis one aka willy scott wrote tom and jester you guys are talking yesterday about fitbit potentially acquiring pebble And I had this thought I'm going to college right now and not only do my friends know about fitbit But so do most of my professors on campus because they own one themselves Our university also sells them in our bookstore So that might be part of the reason they know about it But still I'm sure those same professors who know about fitbit have no idea what a pebble is Justin mentioned the idea of fitbit branding a new watch as fitbit with pebble os I think this would be a brilliant strategy because people have been complaining about the pebble hardware Because it hasn't lasted but everyone raves about the pebble os itself Fitbit is a pretty good hardware maker So you combine great hardware with great software just as apple does very well and you could have a very successful product Yeah, sure it might make those pebble loyalists upset, but in the long run I think it'll be better from a marketing and sales perspective I like that. I did the other reason why the professors know about this because fitbit is an old people device I talked to that to say that I had it's funny. I had to I had to talk with someone about this About they want to get a gift for their mom and they were saying We know what should I get her some stereo set or fitbit and she was she definitely knows about fitbit She's heard of that. Yeah, it's like all the older ladies. They use fitbits when they do their walks So I almost talked about what my sister and my brother and I were talking about getting my mom for Christmas And then on the off chance that she happened like this would be the first day she would decide to check out the show I'm not going to say it But it is funny how how you you suddenly have to get in a different mindset of oh, well, what's important To that person, you know what what specs what features Are different than than the average average user and it changes not just on age But personality and activities and all that sort of thing. So yeah, it's That's an interesting side of it And and it makes sense that older people are going to generally prefer fitbit because it's when you're older that you start to Be more concerned With health your help. Yeah, absolutely with the with the the heart rate tracking and that that side of it Everybody everybody's when you're young you just want to be fit. So you look good Yeah, and so we'll tell you that. Yeah, when you get my age, you just don't give them I just don't want to die. You just give up. Yeah, I don't know Well, thank you Lamar Wilson for joining us as always. It's a pleasure to have you Joe go check out youtube.com slash Lamar Wilson There's two ours in Lamar and hit that subscribe button He may wield a knife sometimes in his videos, but he means well and you will enjoy it I promise. What's going on over there at the channel to tell people I won't hurt you all I promise Uh, really that's a great content. I just bought it a brand news It was for black friday brand new samsung 65 inch 4k curve tv Of course, I'm getting I'm getting heat from some people like why don't you buy the curve? But hey, I love the curve. Why not? Yeah Yeah, so I got that video up and I'm gonna give you a just a since this is the tech audience This beautiful 6.4 inch phone will be highlighted on tuesday, I believe Let's take the phone is some of y'all may know, but it's a huge android phone It does something very cool with the google tango. We'll just leave it at that. All right Yeah, keep an eye out for that. That's cool. I am getting a new television on sunday That is 65 inches and oh led For lg you're doing the lg. Yes.

They they get into like a marathon They break their break their ankles as soon as they get in Oh god I can see dominoes are one of those I I feel like they came out with something where you can just It's on your wrist and you just press the button when you emergency need a pizza and just automatically You're easy order because they already have like easy order type of things for your friend in their app um I would I would wear one because You know, but my delivery guy knows who I am now like you you know, he comes up It's like because I always order at the same time at night if I'm working late and he's like Hey Same order, huh? When we have a conversation. I just feel like this is really this is really sad that Are you ordering just dominoes or is that just This is just a dominoes guy. I asked him about his kids. He knows how He knows about my videos Right I notice your heart rate changes after you eat one of our pizzas You should wash it down with this milkshake. Yeah, it's like your heart stops. Is that a good or bad? What says is you need a you need more you need a diversity and pizza delivery people that show up at your door When you're on a first name basis with the fast food person That's yeah, it like the last few times have been the same the same guy And it's just like we just look at each other and open the door. It's like Yeah It's me again. It's me. It's 11 30 at night. He's like, yeah He's like, I'm still delivered. Yes Sometimes I work so like working editing I actually forget to eat and it's 10 11 o'clock and then there's really nothing else open or no one else delivers And that before I live they stay open pretty late. So well, yeah, or you got to do something like door dash Which could get crazy expensive crazy. Yeah, I do I do postmates a lot now. It's funny You know, you're gonna laugh I do post sometimes I mean like two in the morning and I'm starving Postmates from denny's is the most amazing thing ever. I know I know you say denny's food But I mean I'm telling you that's what he's saying Yeah, it's like these experience of sitting around like an old man complaining about your fitbit I Well, I do spread his sadness doing at home, but you're right. Yeah, you have to get on a hangout with someone else Who also ordered denny's from postmates. Where are my pancakes? You sit there and complain about the fact that the delivery person hasn't shown up Yeah, exactly But yeah, I've done that a few times because that's the only thing that's two in the morning now He used to get in and out through door dash and then in and out made door dash stop So now you can't do that. Really? Why would they care? Internet was like it's not a good experience. Our food doesn't last, you know, they're not doing, you know, we It's gotta be it's not hot anymore when it arrives. Yeah, that's a good point They're fries and yeah, it is you got to eat that stuff within three Minutes the best when they're hot and they're probably among the worst when they're cold. Yeah Very true I'm starving now. Thank you I realized I had to eat it's 2 p.m. I haven't even eaten yet. So oh shoot. You should go eat I added it three videos. I did this and uh, yeah, I'm gonna eat some probably next hour Yeah, don't um, don't not eat because eventually you won't live anymore. Is that how it works? Yeah That's one of those motivational posters Yeah Laying you drop and draw this up, you know, it's a dtspsa. Yeah, yeah eating it keeps you alive Tom standing in a feeling refreshing refreshing it's the morning, you know Eating food refreshing just like those uh, cigarette commercials where cigarettes were On your t-zone eating so you don't die I want to stay alive On your t-zone it's tea for taste and tea for throat More doctors smoke camels Refreshing More doctors I'm not even making that one up. That's that was a real campaign Back in the day. I never really understood why you would call it refreshing Having a cigarette Well, because when when you're craving nicotine and then you smoke a cigarette you feel good relax. So I guess that Somehow ties in with like who I'm refreshed I think it's that menthol That made it refreshing the taste that menthol I don't know. Well, yeah, but I don't were those menthols that you're talking about that were with the refreshing I think they were just regular cigarettes They were advertised that way tobacco All the old people in your tobaccos But I mean all of y'all were smokers back in the day I was never a smoker, but I worked in a restaurant that before california outlawed smoking Oh, so you were smokers essentially smoked. Yeah When you inhale 25 people Lighten up like chimneys Oh, god. No, that's never smoked. Did you ever like during high school ever? I smoked in college and because I was age 16 to age 30 Yeah, are you serious? Yeah, tom would have been two inches taller Roger knew me when I smoked. That's that's what did you smoke? I smoked camels, uh, I did camels Yeah, I so I I was a doctor because I smoked I smoked for a summer but wasn't even that long And the only reason I spoke marborals and the only reason I stopped was because I hated the way it made your Made your fingers smell. It was the turn of yellow. Oh, it's not even the fingers. I just I I did it I did it a little bit in college just because I had a lot of roommates that smoked but um Was just nasty because your teeth just get yellow and it's gross and yeah, it's gross Your clothes stink. You end up looking like the golem because your face is all weird It's gone. I was when I was in my early 20s I heard this uh story on npr that if you stopped smoking by the time you were 30 That your lungs would recover close to a hundred percent Of their functionality But that and and and the point of the story was it was never it's never too late to quit because they'd say and even if you're 40 You can recover really 88 percent. So it's always better Uh to stop but what I took out of it at age 23 was cool. I've got seven more years I always had that in my head. So when I turned 30 I quit Well, I'm done now 30 I crossed the line. How many did you have? I was about at my most it was a half a pack. Sometimes they'd even go a day I was never super As long as you didn't chew No, that's worse. I chew a little in high school, but I never got into it Look, did you stop? Did you stop because uh, did you stop because of marriage? God, I forget. I don't know how long you've been married. No, I stopped because I turned 30 Like oh, that's crazy. That's crazy that you're able to do that too It wasn't addicted to it. It was an affectation I was addicted to it and it was an affectation It was an it was an addicting affectation. Yeah, it's like wearing a top hat So whenever you run for president this podcast will be um Will be a downfall. You're you're because they smoked tobacco You're apparently apparently it doesn't matter what you do.
