Ah the sports section of the show that you always have every week This is more e-sportsy But the overwatch league which just concluded its first week of stuff Attracted 10 million viewers in its first week, which is pretty crazy and averaged 280,000 viewers per minute Day one alone drew an average audience of 408,000 viewers per minute Numbers that seem in line with the expectations after the 12 hour 90 million dollar contract blizzard sign with twitch Very last minute. Nobody's sure why that was so last minute We some assume negotiations some think maybe blizzard was going to do their own thing But they ended up settling uh, I shouldn't say settling they ended up going with twitcher I think was the right idea blizzard notes that these figures don't account for multiple overwatch tuning Via the same browser and or device and that tickets for those watching in la And their blizzard arena in person sold out throughout the full seven days So that place was packed full the entire time. I believe that's in burbank To be more precise not just the area that is correct actually miss miss Miss reported by pcgamer it isn't burbank and in fact it was the former johnny karson j leno studio for Uh, the tonight show for all those years. No kidding. I didn't realize that they bought that thing out I don't know from whom I assume from mbc or whoever owned it at the time And have been renovating it working on it things have been ready pretty much since right around before blizzcon They had some finals there for some other stuff, but they weren't quite ready to show us what they had But I will tell you what guys I watched most of the games And despite my team I was backing not placing very well Uh, by the way, congratulations la to your team's killing it. Yeah, uh, just so you know, we have two teams in la I have decided to become a valiant supporter because they're 2 and 0 Yeah, that's the only reason they're really doing well. Um, just a bad record Sarah that the san francisco shock is in seventh place Which is you know, whatever one and one. It's not too bad We're pleased to that I mainly like their color scheme. So it's a little bit weird why I like them But anyway la's in uh in the top spot. I watched this thing and I've got to tell the guy to say I have never seen Better production value for An e-sports event than this and there's been a lot of e-sports over the years And it's been building and building and getting better and better. But this was a cut above Uh, it is clear they spent some serious money on that place And the screen stuff with the seamless sort of wall to wall sealing screen stuff They're doing is breathtaking and alone worth watching. I think Um, and I wanted a little tidbit I'd throw at the bottom of this uh, one of the nights where there was a bunch of games going on I had a bunch of stuff going on so I couldn't watch it live So we turned the vods on actually air played it from my phone to my tv and had a whole bunch of people here for a birthday party for a friend non gamers non e-sports enthusiasts Gathered around in a living room watching this stuff play out and you had the volume up so they could hear commentary Very loud. There you go commentary. In fact, that's one thing that kept mentioning is like oh, this is like football These guys Commentaries. Here's your color guy. Here's your play-by-play guy or whatever Uh, and I think they went away fans. I'm pretty sure we we maybe Helped to give birth to an additional 12 e-sports fans in one night who otherwise had no interest in this or really didn't know What it was about and uh, it was super super impressive So full disclosure. I'm a huge blizzard fanboy, but I think they really nailed it here There's a lot of trepidation about how well this would come off and I think it It went real well Quick question. I mean 10 million viewers in a first week. Super impressive. Do we know how many seats are in the actual former tonight show auditorium? More than it was when it was for the tonight show So the way they've laid it out and that and that's the problems. I don't know the exact number But the way they laid it out the old studio Um was this way johnny would come out or jay would come out and they'd do their monologue And the first people you would see were non production people that were their audience members And they were immediately on the risers and then growing to the back of the stadium This is different where they have all of that But then right below that where it used to be a lot more production staff for the tonight show Is now additional seating. So it's more than whatever it is for a tonight show viewing But it's not like, you know, this isn't some mega Uh Yeah, I get the idea that the crowd is there to look good on the stream and they where the audience Is is is watching they the in the in person attendance is not that important for them No, and and also the goal with this isn't so much to say. Hey, look at our giant facility It is to say We want esports to have a proper venue For everything it does coming from our company. So we are going to buy control and have this place So hgc will happen there. That's the heroes championship games for heroes of the storm The hearthstone finals will all be held there and the lead up games Like this is going to be Their stadium And then where the real eyeballs come from are certainly, you know from streams and online and stuff So it's it's very interesting to watch because they're making a giant gamble with this These teams were very expensive for their owners Uh, this 90 million dollar contract is the biggest contract anyone's done with twitch for exclusivity So, uh a lot writing on it so far so good. We'll have to see how it goes long term Well, speaking of video youtube will start manually reviewing all videos and its google preferred premium advertising programs So that advertisers have a little bit more faith that their messages won't show up and disturbing or inappropriate videos We've seen some of that as of late new creators applying to the youtube partner program also need to have a mass 4000 hours of video watch time within the past 12 months And also have 1000 subscribers to be eligible to earn advertising revenue from their channels. It's funny I first uh got notice of this uh from the laughing squid twitter account last night scott biel who runs laughing squid and has for Wow, I don't know 20 years or however long the internet started was like, you know, I haven't really put a lot of Effort into youtube, but I get a little residual money and like I don't actually meet these requirements anymore. The sucks for me But I understand why youtube is doing this I I first became aware of it when I got an email from youtube last night telling me they're demonetizing my channel on february 20th Uh, because I'm kind of the same position as scott biel. I've got 16 000 subscribers. I'm well beyond the thousand limit So when they when they change the subscriber level for monetization Uh, I that didn't affect me and I'm like, you know what at a certain point You know, you're only making like 10 bucks a year if you have less than a thousand subscribers Because you just really can't build up the amount that makes sense. This also makes sense You're only making about 100 bucks a year at 4 000 hours of video So it's not going to break anyone but as someone who's like I inconsistently run my channel I've only got 2 000 hours of view time on my personal channel And I will say and this is very personal. I'm not saying this applies to everybody It has disincentivized me to do things on that channel Because I've started to kick around ideas like oh, what if I did this? I'm like, well if it caught on I'd make money now It's like well if it caught on it might get made of 4 000 hours But even then all of the catching on part wouldn't even be monetized So maybe I'll take it to twitch instead and do something there Yeah, I mean, uh, obviously obviously this is an adjustment to probably solve a lot of problems One of them is that you know youtube's primary customer. It's advertisers and it's it's creators are not necessarily They're customers. They are the product of the of the service this came up a bit in our morning show this morning And um, I can see why like sarah. I see why youtube is doing this I'm a little bummed out for small creators that we're looking for a boost or or we're putting the work in And now they're going to have to put in all this additional unpaid work to get there It is a platform. Maybe don't put all your eggs in this one basket. Anyway, regardless um, and and Still work towards something that maybe works for people But I I It's weird. I share the disappointment with the small guy But I I completely under kind of understand where where google lives. Also, it's like you know, there's the the idea of posting good content and enjoying it And posting good content that has like lots of engagement. I mean, there are lots of tactics not everybody uses them But there are lots of tactics to sort of like game the system a little bit so In a way, I think a lot of folks who are doing good stuff and maybe just weren't looking for like the most views ever but you know now are um He's sort of delisted. Yeah, I think it's that you know, it's If first of all, I'm not mad at youtube about it I'm just going to make a logical decision of like, oh, well, I guess I won't be sinking too much effort there If I get something that I think can go to 4 000 videos easily then I'll probably put it there Like it's not a moral thing. I'm I don't get into this thing of like, ah, screw them now I'm going to do everything to hate them. That's not how I roll But I am not going to use them for things that I would have used them before whether that impacts them or not I don't know probably not they're looking at these big numbers and saying well We now have to have humans review advertising because advertisers are starting to pull their ads So in order to make that worthwhile to make that uh, to make that not be unwieldy We have to limit the number of of advertiser Or the number of videos that we can review. Uh, and so it makes perfect sense I get the calculus from their side of it as well It's just unfortunate for folks like us the one thing that they may be underestimating and this is very typical of google in general Is they have now spread out bad feelings to a large number of people Uh, whether that comes back to bite them or not. I don't know, but I you know, I don't have a good feeling about it I'm not angry, but I'm just like, yeah. Well, I guess I won't use them And also it's just a reminder they're moving the goalposts all the time and and I think in a way It's good because it reminds people that this platform is Is there for you until it isn't And so you got to do your best that you can on it if that's where you're trying to uh, you know Spend your time But like some you tours are found out recently and and others have found out in other ways This may not be the place you want to have, you know, your whole party. So and that's fine, you know YouTube has to do what's right for youtube Which means that we will other people have to do what's right for them because here I am on daily tech news show Which does have a channel that qualifies For monetization and will not be stripped daily tech news show is going to keep making these videos I'm not going to you know go off in a huff because my other channel got demonetized It's you know, you just have to make whatever the sensible decision is for you Facebook began testing watch party with a handful of groups Facebook would like to have all of those people who are not going to be making money on youtube But they're not necessarily going to share that money with you either Watch party is a feature that lets members of facebook groups Watch any public facebook video together and comment and interact group moderators can select one or more videos You can queue them up to post inside the group as part of a watch party You can only do watch one watch party at a time. You can't schedule them days in advance Viewers see a watch party widget show up in the group page And then comments either appear overlaid if you're on the mobile version of the app Or in a rail on the right side if you're on the desktop version So one smore will this be the time where somebody cracks the group watching on the internet Dream that so many including xbox. I've tried before well And also like it just sort of speaks to the whole facebook saying yeah videos They're we're not sure that this is really the right engagement for your for your news feed That you're sharing with all the you know special relationships and friends that you actually have So we're going to sort of rebuild it into a place that we think might make more sense I would love this to work. I love the idea of watching something Currently with friends and seeing you know real-time comments and all of that stuff But yes tom to your point apps have tried this in the past More than a few that I can remember and it never really caught on and i'm not totally sure why Live video that's on network television Let's say you know at appointment viewing like a super bowl the Oscars or whatever like that does great on twitter That's one of my favorite things to do, but that's not exactly what twitter is built for so To for facebook to try to bring this to the platform within groups is interesting Yeah, I mean it it already happens in You know youtube's if there's a I don't know some sort of a speech being given People can go in there suddenly the comments are crazy It's this live event and everybody's super into it and that may be a piece of this that this the stuff We're talking about isn't necessarily live. They're just public videos. Maybe that will come later maybe that's part of this package but My point is I think it's hard to get people on a schedule Unless it's a big deal like for example if it's just to watch eight cap videos that the group thought people might like I don't know like that seems a little bit weird Here's the case where it might work because what does facebook have to lose they're not banking on Any kind of giant revenue uptick from this is just a new feature And maybe that feature if popular does roll into premium. Oh, they expect a revenue uptick from video views That's what they're holding exactly so so but I guess that's more more utilitarian than say if netflix came out and said We're going to make it possible for all of you to watch Uh reruns of whatever show you love the most We're going to have a friends watching party for the month of whatever And we're going to have this giant chat room or you can make small chat rooms with just your friends Like if they did that First of all, I'd be shocked, but if they did do that Uh, I think that it's hard to get people as excited about that Then if it was like a big announcement or a live event like these overwatch games I was talking about well poodle puncher in our chat rooms pointing out. There's the diamond club movie party Uh, and that's something where It to me It's an example of what you're talking about a group of people who want to do something are getting together and finding tools to do it What facebook's trying to do is say hey, we want you to do something Here's a tool use it And maybe If you have a facebook group that is at the point where they would want to do this naturally themselves like Oh my gosh, we've been talking about getting together and having something like a diamond club movie party on this facebook group Then great, but I don't know that there's enough of those situations to make this work for them I feel like this is more facebook saying let's try to get people into groups more You know that the whole watching a movie or a tv show together like that's fine But yeah, it's not going to work for everybody and you know, it's it's it's a niche product But the group's idea of especially facebook saying Some of the stuff that's on the news feed is just not working for that You know the sort of general facebook experience But if you were part of 10 groups that you were really into and they were really engaging then You know, it's uh, it's better it's It works better for facebook This is true Speaking of working better the type 8 times reports that inventech shipped more than 1 million home pods to apple Earlier this month. Ah the elusive home pod Spring talk that the smart speaker may finally arrive for customers in as little as four to six weeks Now this could give more context to why apples also expanding a new siri feature to play podcasts when you ask siri to Give me the news I guess that's sort of a declaration rather than a question users in australia and the uk have joined the us And a beta feature that lets siri play content from npr in the us and the bbc in the uk If you want a different source and you say well, I don't want npr to give me my news That's okay. You can change your default for example in the us You could change it to fox news or cnn or the washington post I'm very interested in this device just because Apple coming in, you know, kind of late to the party here Uh has been a concern for me. Um, they're Kind of closed off ecosystem Uh is a bit of a turnoff However, I'm in the ecosystem in a lot of ways. I have an apple music account as an example And I would like to take better advantage of that So what I really want from this is the stage promise that we seem to be Getting from tim cook and others at the time of the announcement that this was more focused on Great audio like really good sound and um, you know a step above the competition in that regard Because I fully expect the siri integration to be good enough and it'll be fine And it'll tell me the things I generally get from my My echo um and people get from their their google homes, but To really set this apart it's going to be about form It's going to be about how well that thing sounds like I really do want to see it in the public and see how it goes And I'm glad to hear we're going to finally see these soon I'm always disheartened when there's a lock in right when it's like, hey, we've decided these are the best news sources for you Uh, and so you can pick from them you have choice and it's like Geez, what if somebody wants to have dts? You know, thankfully amazon echo moved on from just being npr the bbc at launch To allowing any skill to be a flash briefing, which is how we got daily tech headlines on there Um, I'm wondering and hoping uh that apple could do the same Especially since they have the biggest podcast marketplace on the planet Uh that they could take advantage of that of course this thing isn't even out yet It looks like we're finally going to get it There's finally shipping versions So that's exciting for people at ces who are like why isn't apple in this conversation? It's all google assistant versus amazon voice services. Uh, looks like at least, you know By the end of march, uh, we'll be able to at least decide whether apple's worth having In that conversation. Yeah Yeah, I I think I would be more impressed with the idea of telling siri to play me the news If it were more of like an rss aggregate feed of lots of news sources Which is what I think is a better way to get the news anyway But yeah, sure if you like a certain podcast a lot, then it would be convenient But your options are limited well the echo the echo I don't have a google home So I can't speak to that but the way the echo works with my daily briefing is I have Basically applied what I want to it. So I've created a a collection of things that I want to be briefed on Uh, one of which is dtns headlines One of them is my video games daily show and then I have some other stuff that I'm interested in But I put those up to sort of test those and and whatever And and it's great. I really do like that But it doesn't really work well for longer form content Then again, I can just ask my echo to play the morning stream and it will find it via tune in radio or something Sometimes it won't find a show I want though. So there's a lot of scattershot going on there Apple has an opportunity here just from a podcast perspective and like tom said They've got this huge directory So many if you're making a podcast you have your podcast listed on itunes Whether you use apple stuff or not whether you care or not you do that because that's what you do So they have all this stuff that they could tap into very quickly and very easily I'm hoping maybe against hope that they really jump on that because I want That's the kind of integration I want from what I like to listen to And I want to be able to group stuff together the way you're saying sarah Like there's real possibilities here for that content and I'm not so sure they're focused on that so I guess we'll have to wait until it's out. Yeah I Here's some news podcast network this week in tech a k a twit is suing twitter Twitter alleges twitter breached a written contract oral agreement intentional interference With perspective economic advantage and trademark infringement A lot of legal stuff there in may of last year twitter announced Original premium video content that would come to its platform And twit's attorneys demanded that twitter stop expanding the use of twitter's trademark To it is seeking relief including a preliminary and Permanent injunction that orders twitter to stop using the mark in connection with the Distribution of audio and video content and to quote any and all profits derived from the unlawful acts Unquote yeah, there's a there's a lot of fun going on around this It's it's actually a smaller story In most of the tech world that it is for a lot of our viewers Because sarah and I used to work there But what's going on is not that twit doesn't want twitter to have video Obviously they've had periscope for a long time. You've been able to upload video for a long time It's the idea that twitter announced back in may if you remember original video that twitter is funding video creating video Under the twitter name that's different than the nfl stream the nfl stream was twitter is letting nfl I mean really the nfl is letting twitter, but stream the nfl branded cbs broadcast on twitter That's not something twitter created. They're a platform. They're licensing it, right? What twit seems to be from my reading of this and I have no inside information on it Objecting to is hey, we were fine with this We had an agreement with ev was all good until you started making videos and once you started making videos yourself Then that could cause confusion and granted None of you would ever confuse the two I get that we're smarter than that But having worked there I can say people did Occasionally confuse them didn't make sense sometimes why they would in the way that they did but they did and so What they're going to try to show in court is there is confusion We had an agreement and we need to settle this and it sounds like they tried to settle it Going back all the way to may and they just couldn't get it worked out. So they finally resorted to go into court Well, it'll be interesting. I mean, I don't know what kind of precedence it sets for the rest of the small business things Or if if at the end of all this somebody say like twitter could go after twitch because the name's similar or whatever No, I mean again if twitch starts making its own original shows, right and amazon has to be very careful there Then yeah, maybe that that could happen, but that's that's not what's going on here from what I can tell Uh reports have been going around that a pair of teams from microsoft and alibaba Created an ai that outperformed humans on a reading comprehension test This is true. It is not however true that the ai can read better than humans. Here's why The ai was using something called the stanford question answering data set Which is called squad for short stanford question get squad It consisted more than 100 000 pairs of questions and answers based on 536 paragraph length wikipedia excerpts Now humans score about 82.3% on this test in the study alibaba's ai scored 82.4% so they Just barely edged out the humans and microsoft's ai scored 82.6% so they even did a little better but not by a lot and The test involves a lot of pattern matching It is an ai achievement that for example an ai can understand that whose authority did luther's theology oppose Could be answered by his theology challenge the authority in office of the pope But that's because the paragraph says His theology challenge the authority in office of the pope. It's doing A bit of smart padding pattern matching going okay I understand that this sentence is asking for what did this subject do with this verb And this other sentence seems to answer that the ai doesn't show the ability to actually Comprehend so the meaning of comprehension here is a little very basic like it can comprehend how to give you an answer You can't say Well, why did martin luther do this the ai is not going to be able to answer that Probably a lot of the humans wouldn't be able to answer that either But you'd get more humans able to answer. Why did martin luther do this then you would Uh the ai giving you a satisfying response on that Yeah, well, well done microsoft with your uh your point three score better than humans. I'm very impressed Very nice. I'll he bought crap together Well, and again, this is this is one of those things where it's it's good that the ai can do this This is going to be good for search results. It could it could do legal preceding readings It could it can be very helpful It doesn't mean more than that It doesn't mean that oh computers can read now and totally understand and we can have a conversation about Madame Bovery now because it totally can understand a book and AI is going to be coming to book club soon. Can't wait Yeah, it's not to say that we couldn't develop to a point where some of this is is easier Like that comprehension is only going to get better as machine learning gets better and the technology around it gets better But I don't I don't think people with a good historical knowledge need to Uh worry about their jobs at the moment. I think uh, there there's not enough unless you work for cliff nodes Yeah, yeah, that's a really good point. That's the kind of thing that this might be good at Crap Poor cliff. See you Uh to get all the tech headlines each day in about five minutes folks You can subscribe to daily tech headlines as I mentioned earlier You can get it on the amazon echo on the uh google home On the anchor app and also as a good old-fashioned podcast at dailytech headlines dot com All right, let's check the mail bag sarah We were talking about smart speakers earlier And so thought I might throw in this note from andy who says how do I listen to daily tech headlines? On the google home. It doesn't work for me. Maybe there's a special way I'm supposed to ask not doing it if I say Listen to daily tech headlines the responses. I'm sorry. I can't play news from daily tech headlines yet I've tried phrasing the question differently, but same result. Please help me Uh, he's in australia So my guess is it's a region locked thing And it might be something we could do about something about I'll look again The last time I looked we were marked for worldwide distribution and with the amazon echo We had the same thing where even though daily tech headlines was marked for worldwide distribution We had to create a new skill In the uk version and then we had to create a new skill in the canada version It was just it's just unfortunate that they make it that difficult and again. This is the wall garden We have rss that is meant to get past all of this So I as a creator could say only go in these countries or go worldwide and then everybody respects that But because companies are building up their own systems from scratch because they want to protect stuff You get these complications. So apologies that it's not working It's probably the region lock although if you want to share with us your favorite ways to get google home or amazon echo To subscribe to a skill like daily tech headlines, uh, write it and let us know maybe that'll be helpful for andy Also, just yeah, you know, if if if it helps, um, you andy Earlier because I have a sonos one that uses alexa to to get a lot of my information. Sorry. I said the word Um, and earlier I was like, okay. Well, let me just try daily tech headlines and it was like Gave me something weird daily tech headlines podcast work back a charm.

No Seems like it's uh Friend of mine, um, who I am cat sitting for uh has a real lacroix problem Oh, when I say problem, I'm like, what's the problem? That's water But I mean you open the fridge and you're like Hmm, it's a lot of money to pay for water and just So good It's so good water It's why why is it so good? I've tried I've tried it and I'm like, yeah, okay I will say the coconut flavor, which is it's nasty. I don't like that No, it's the best. It's the best one by far, but it's very polarizing I like the passion fruit one and with the pomegranate one, but you know again No, no, actually the coconut's not the worst. They have a cola one. That's nasty. You know what I like to drink scotch No, I was I was thinking like what what do I drink because we don't want coconut scotch. We don't It's very polarizing People love it Uh No, I was thinking like what do we what do we we don't drink soda? We don't keep any we don't have any soda in our house Um much to my friends chagrin when they come to visit and I'm like, do I have anything? Uh I'm like, what do we drink? We mostly drink water. We drink coffee in the morning and then you know What wine or scotch or something? in here in fact, um Rarely when people come over Because I don't like people in my house and I'm just getting sort of because you won't let them in But you know, someone I'll be like, would you like a glass of water and they'll go like Maybe like some orange juice and I'm like, yeah Markets down at the end of the Yeah, sure. I just I kind of forget that people are like Pick up a scratcher for me while you're down there getting some orange juice. I drink water juice I don't even drink juice. We have green we have canned green tea um in the refrigerator and we I think have A bottle of um The knockoff brand of butter beer Oh, beer Well the people who make butter beer for the harry potter section of the universal theme park Also sell it but they can't sell it as butter beer as part of their contract So they sell it under a like a butterscotch soda margin margin beer I can't believe it's not butter beer I can't believe it's not butter beer. I think that would get them soon What's it? What do you have in your fridge scott? juice like roger We're big on water. So we've got a lot of water bottles. I'm kind of laying around Well, it's funny here in la we have a right right in the taps We have that too, but I don't know for the salt lake. So it comes out We get if we get a deal like a cost go on a ton of water bottles We'll get them But there's also we have a fridge with a filter and all that and I get most of my water out of there um and then very occasionally The kids like this weird fanta stuff that is kind of good and We were talking about fanta a couple weeks ago like whatever happened to these brands that no one sees anymore. So Off the pop just generally but As many people know that can be tricky Wow fanta nice the the uh Fanta fanta hear that song Yeah, they still uh, they're still around. They seem around. They're still doing stuff No soda is one of those things I grew out of very quickly as soon as I graduated high school I wasn't allowed to drink soda as a child. So I just sort of besides like getting one at someone's house because I knew it was forbidden You know and kind of like pretending that I liked it. I never liked it So to the stage like if I was thirsty, I'm like, I don't want to coke. That's like the last thing I want to want water Well, I think that my mother did right thing. I use it as a treat Right, like if I'm doing something if I'm out and about and I'm like, uh You really want to you know, give myself a treat. I'll get a coke zero or something But I don't drink it every day It's weird because I do kind of like Gatorade I don't really like Gatorade when I'm sick Which is kind of weird. It's it. It's a comfort drink. Yeah. Repunishes your electrolytes Yeah, if you're feeling a little like love a good lemon Gatorade I used to drink Gatorade as a hangover prevention Measure when I was in my 20s Did it work? It's so well, you know what I think it worked because it hydrated me I think I would have got the same effect if I drank that much water But it was like a big jug. So yeah I used to get Gatorade gum. Do you remember that when there was? Oh, yeah, Gator gum. Oh So good First flavor remember when uh They tried to capitalize on the popularity of chewing tobacco with kids and came out with big league chew Yeah, my that was out of my house. Big league chew was not allowed No, that was I was a lot of fun because it was it was shredded gum Yeah, I remember my mom tried half-heartedly to object and my dad's like, oh come on. It's gum. Yeah My mom's like that's a gateway to real chew. I'm like mom It's gum No fixing it with tobacco is a gateway to going straight to back Yeah, I was uh, you know, it's funny because you're saying about the soda My my dad didn't allow me to have soda either But he would make an exception for seven up Because he thought it was the purest of the sodas that you could get Sure, it's clear Yeah, you No caffeine. So no No, no cola. No root beer My parents would give me seven up when I was sick Mm-hmm It was the same it's why I can't drink seven up now because all I think about is No, just they give me this one a puke. Yeah Not good. Oh Amos says his kids use Gatorade gummies during their soccer games They can't have bottles while playing but they can have a gummy. So Gatorade still does non that liquid Stuff, I guess. Oh, I'm very interested in these gummies now I'm gonna look this up No, is this a recent thing because I Like I was shopping for vitamins the other day. Oh the gummies thing. Yeah, like but it's before I knew recent for you since you only get to the store every five years, but yeah, that's Relative. No, I'm just wondering because like I knew there were chewable vitamins Gummy vitamins for kids. I think gummy vitamins been around for five years or so Yeah I was just talking to my mom about this when I was home for the holidays because she has a bunch of like, you know It's just like multi vitamins that people should have, you know, and she was like, I just hate spoiling pills And you know for a long time like yeah, unless you were a child and you were like you like eating the flinstone vitamins You didn't really have other options But if you can chew your vitamins, why wouldn't you want the gummy one? They've got something called Gatorade Prime energy chews and Those are like chewables. They come also in this high end. Let's see Gatorade endurance carb energy chews You can get those two And they're fruit punch flavored and they're 22 bucks and you eat them So yeah, they've been branching out over there. It looks like I remember Roger when Because we buy chewable vitamins because my wife doesn't like to swallow the big vitamin pills either just multivitamin and I remember We started to be hard to find them because they kept getting they were getting driven out by all the gummies Well, the gummies are weird because not they're not weird But the thing is like to make it gummy they you know, you need to eat more Well, also they don't if you notice if you compare they don't have all the vitamins that A normal vitamin has right I'm skeptical on the gummy vitamin thing Oh The ones I have right now because they taste like a Because it tastes too good to be good for you No, I don't think they taste that good either But I just I think they're they're skimping on what should be in them Maybe the I think you just have a lower amount dosage of like the fish oil is comparing them If you just get the standard hard to swallow cod liver pills Like it has five times as much of the stuff That you need You would have to eat like four of these gummy things and they just pop back two of the fish liver Cod liver oil that's awesome castor oil Ah delicious kim did pick up some uh, they call them burpless Omega-3 oil. Oh, yeah, I got those those are great. Yeah, it makes them burpless They just well, it's not that you won't burp. It's just you won't burp and smell like you just killed a cod and ate it Well, yeah, it won't go all the way up your your esophagus Because that's the problem see see the problem is you smell like you just killed a cod If you're in a cod heavy area of town, I'm gonna appreciate that You know, I've always wondered like is me buying those vitamins like somehow Contributing to the overfishing of the seas or would that is that just made for the leftover? Well, actually That's a very interesting question because my immediate response was going to be well if they farm raise them That's fairly sustainable But my doctor has pointed out a few studies that show that farm-raised fish Don't have the right omega-3. So I don't know if you can harvest the right amount of omega-3s from farm-raised So maybe you have to go with the wild caught But you may be able to get it from byproducts that wouldn't be used in In the in the kind of products they sell for consumption Because because I was thinking about scrapping fish bones and stuff like the the flax seed stuff and My doctors are like no, they don't you need you need the animal version Need it We were meant to be vegan if you're vegan you can't do it I don't know what you do if you're vegan How you get your your omega-3s? Um, you can get them from some plants, but yeah, it's harder You just wait till the animal decomposes into their vegan Omega-3 like it doesn't have to come from fish oil. Well, there you go source of it, but you can get it other ways Yeah, so that that solves your fishing thing. Yeah, you may be eating omega-3 That isn't even the omega-3s you get from flax seed or other non-animal sources Isn't The same quantity like per density that you would Like there's a reason why we eat we eat animals because if you just said flax seed Yeah No, I missed I missed that you were talking about flax seed as an omega-3, but so you just take more of them What the hell? Yeah, well, you know, I guess I could spend all day eating flax Who doesn't love the whole day spent eating flax talk about Talk about a pill that needs a burpless version. That's my dream day Yeah, that one's pretty bad. It's like it's like are these suppositories these things are huge It's just plain What's the flax Well folks, uh, we've mentioned the word suppository, which is our signal that the show should end So thank you all for joining us. See you tomorrow
