Studios in San Francisco California it's the Apple byte extra crunchy podcast with your host mr. Brian Tom oh goodness thank you for that introduction produced this show produced by your producer Steven Beecham how do you what's up everybody welcome to the Apple byte extra crunchy in his episode 32 on this April fools day as we're recording it for the record I want to let you know the stories that we talked about today will not be April Fool's let's hope these are not these are all real factual events Steven I got fooled for like a split second today by which red box what did they do they said they wanted a red box and ambassadors and like I was like what can have people like hanging out by the red box and then there was a picture there's like a guy inside the red not not that I want any of the kids to check but um pornhub turned their website into corn hub it was like different pictures of corn not that I looked wow what is that URL it's gonna leave it bad for the children listing all the adults listening there they're here in full force we just want to say thank you again so much for being a part of our show and this is a show that includes you we have live streams going on with YouTube and live stream and periscope so we like we like to interact with you all and Steven again if people during appropriate times if there's people that want to interject and say stuff you know just jump on in in the show and just let let us know what we're thinking as well we also want to let you know again for you to call in and be a part of this one eight hundred six one six two six three eight is the number to call name where you're from and your statement your comment your question your bad-apple we had a couple calls that were like way beyond 30 seconds that we're like we just can't do this cuz yeah we're getting a ton of calls and we really want to pack in as many of you that we can yes so you know we don't want anybody filibustering that's what we do yes we feel asleep we fill out we we fill a bustah we just keep talking so let's get to the show and jump right off the top this may not necessarily be directly related to Apple but I want to talk about the Tesla Model 3 oh yeah I want to talk about the Tesla Model 3 and the reason why I wanted about it is this is what Apple is up against this is they are bringing a Tesla car at a thirty five thousand dollar price point a consumer car that looks really amazing it has this huge massive skylight window glass top it's a roof that just swoops from the front to the back zero to 60 miles per hour in less than 60 seconds six less than sorry better be lesson six might actually even be faster yeah even depending on which model you're dead if you get the supercharged model 215 miles on a single charge at the very least they said it has this autopilot feature which is awesome I mean look at I'll tell you right now I have not advertised it on social media because it shouldn't matter but I put up $1,000 deposit down did you really I did your did you go stand on line yesterday no no no you could do it I'm driving right after it happened cool so after the keynote I'm like dude I this you it is fully refundable okay so don't get all crazy it's not like of course I'm gonna put it on a card it's fully refundable but if you wait these this year and a half or two who knows it might it's gonna be a lot harder to get right people were waiting in line it's actually it's actually pretty affordable it's thirty five thousand dollars and then you get a seven thousand dollars and housing break with that taxpayer so I mean what is that I let's do the mask 28 27 27 is a change that's pretty good and we don't know what this cars we loaded load to it but again there's a lot of excitement around this this is a game changer for sustainable you know cars in general the other things I want to talk about though is Apple right like Apple what are they gonna do they're third where there's people waiting in lines for Tesla like and I feel like it I know that they are in competition they're so behind they are positioning themselves as the quote unquote Apple of yesteryear of cars now yes the hype is there the excitement is there the design I that looks like a test that card is not on the exterior does not look like it's skimping visually no it looks hot and then the deck there's no dashboard which is like I can't you know it's hard to grasp that but all it is just a touchscreen that big screen cool yeah so we'll time we'll time we'll go on time will pass and we'll find out how this shakes out but I think it's one of the most exciting announcements that we have seen in the past couple of years just from a tech standpoint and consumer stamp a tech consumer standpoint oh yeah it's Apple is looking at this and there's been rumors that they have a plot of land in the South Bay that they're going to use to potentially use as a factory I mean Apple isn't even producing anything right now and they must be looking at themselves and like maybe we should go back to the drawing board or maybe we shouldn't try to make a car yeah I do I feel like they've like dip their toe in too many things a lot this year in terms of the car like just little hints and little mentions they're gonna try or play so they're gonna try well I will give them the benefit of the doubt and see where they stand but it took Tesla they started around 2003 to get to this point Apple is just not gonna all of a sudden be able to build an amazing car in a year or two it's gonna their target is 2020 yeah so they still have time but just imagine where Tesla's gonna be in 2020 compared to where Apple's gonna be in 2020 that's what you have to look at race way far ahead way far ahead so this is as they say potential game-changer they had a around 130,000 pre-orders already in place at the time of the keynote I've got to imagine that probably doubled yes so the govern it--for competition is fierce competition is fierce we're gonna also switch over to the reviews for the iPhone se and the iPad pro nine point seven inch they are in now basically it's what you expect everyone's are saying the SE is a solid phone it is using parts from the 5s it is using a few parts from this six sorry the iPhone 6s as well it uses like the 5s screen and some of the other components it's a solid phone if you want a four inch phone in the US it's not like it's selling gangbusters or getting a massive amount of pre-orders in China and India specifically that's where you're seeing the most traction but this is not moving the needle for sales for Apple in any way shape or form where it's something that would be considered a major victory this is like we've talked about business decision over innovation business yeah I saw someone sent me an ad that I can trade in my iPhone 6s for like three hundred sixty five dollars which is close to what I bought it for and I was like actually tempted to do that and get an se just because of the size just because of the demons I'm glad you admitted iPhone 5 you know the iPhone 5 size was perfect the iPhone at 6s it's just it's too big I I think hey you know what to each their own even even my even mice well I don't know who has bigger hands right here I put your head up I want to see this I want to see this come on come on I'm pretty I'm pretty big hands honestly my head this is just for the record ladies and gentleman my hands are slightly bigger than Steven Beecham's now that doesn't mean a Beecham wears like a size 20 shoe so I mean interpret what you want from no but uh I could see how with your smaller hand Steven that the iPhone 6s would be harder to handle yeah I mean I was literally tempted I'm like it's close to the success it has you know it's a little cheaper but it is a solid phone right rounds out their phone line also the iPad pro nine point seven inch what some people are arguably calling the best iPad pro just or the best iPad clearly from a standpoint of it's the sweet spot for the size and the features that it has but I will tell you I'm still very happy with my iPad pro after over time right we like when when do we do our last session we just I think just last week right I can't remember see because we we do these things all the time usually that's why it's so much better being in the same room yeah it's so much easier but the iPad pro is a solid I told people from the start even right after the announcement that it's a great update if you've been looking upgrade your iPad pro I would say and you've had one for two or three years or even four years if it would be a great update if you're someone that's looking to do that so I like the product but I want my true tone display on my freaking twelve-point that just kills them all so just a quick update we talked about Apple's iOS 9.3 update that had to be updated and got pulled and waiting for the update the update of the update iOS 9.3 point 1 is out Apple released it it fixes this web link crashing bug so on our video show we this this just happened I think yesterday in our video show published by the time it came out so we will address it but it is out so I would suggest that after the third update of iOS 9.3 then hopefully they've got some of the kinks worked out but for those of you that waited and are smart about things that did not jump into it immediately then uh then you're good yeah it feels like I've been updating a lot this week I have done a lot of updates of the updates in the update yeah we just don't want another update to the updates of the other update of that lets not update any more updates yeah I don't I don't I don't like that we're here to keep you updated uh just kind of transitioning over to Apple pens now there wasn't a lot of news initially set up for this show but all of a sudden a boatload a cornucopia of patents just dropped on us these are patents that Apple has applied for that have been revealed or released and now brought to light and we talked about it in a way this is kind of sad to me but this first Apple pan is still cool but Apple has invented improved efficiency of inductive power transfers and is proposing in this one of these patents we have like eight or nine that we're going to talk about proposing inductive charging iPhone case that does not have a hump on it yeah it looks flat it actually looks like a fine Lincoln case yeah now who knows when they design that thing if they're gonna put some chunky ugly hunchback a notre-dame bump on it Oh it'll be chunky it's gonna be chunky there's gonna be junk in the trunk no I believe this but uh this is Apple working on for Believe It or Not a wireless charging in this is my goodness could we see it possibly in 2016 possibly oh my goodness I just a technology that hasn't been around for four or five years so they're they're working on that that's kind of fun also though I like this one a lot better Apple is working on building this inductive charging B between iOS devices and even something like a MacBook so this is cool this is cool the surface of your MacBook let's say it's near the keyboard or even in drawings that are further down in the patent would show that you just lay your devices on top of your MacBook and then there are specific hot points that would allow it to charge while they're just resting there yeah so there's conductive coils inside which make connection with conductive coils or the other device and transfer the charge so it's it's pretty interesting I think I think that's super cool this is actually something that's super useful they even showed the back surface of an iPad that's got to be an iPad pro if you're gonna put three devices on it I'm saying and this it it also talks about it being magnetic so it would magnetized did those those hot spots yeah so you'd put your phone on you'd feel the magnet connect no it's charging yeah that's I think it's useful you know we'll see how iPhone battery life is overall with this next gen iPhone hopefully it's better most likely it's about the same but using your other devices to charge things that's kind of cool because most of us even though we have laptops they're typically charged charging while we're using it right yeah so typically it could just basically be an inductive charging station very cool I like that another patent reveals um that the iPhone is potentially will be able to use touch ID to gain access to a MacBook without having to type in your password now when we're talking on these podcasts sometimes because I don't have it set up when when my laptop's just open and I start talking to Stephen Beach and we're like just vibing the passcode locks and I'm like typing it while trying to talk to you it's annoying that's a pain it is a pain so much like the Apple watch unlocks your phone when they're within proximity of each other this would be your phone your MacBook yeah and it's biometric stuff so it doesn't necessarily just need to be your fingerprint it could be maybe you just look at it and get your eyes you know your eye scans or something or you put the phone up to your ear and it unlocks because it knows the shape of your ear or something I read the I did not read that part that's crazy well there's a I put it in the the rundown see everyone was everyone oh I moved that I moved that I saw that line I thought I accidentally pasted it I actually it was just a definition of biometric biometric security and one of those things was putting something to your ear and it reads the contours of your ear nose oh this is Steve's ear okay I'm gonna unlock so it's kind of silly but I think it's interesting I think it's cool I also remember when touch ID first came out all these all the crazy people are like people can just try and steal your fingers though oh yeah no they're not I'm not gonna try and steal your ears either Apple had to come out and say actually your finger has to be alive and have blood flow going through in order for it to work so they had to clarify which is funny everyone's like I'm gonna chop off someone's finger totally worth it yeah I thought your thing is interesting yeah I mean it's kind of silly I don't think anyone ever digs you already have the fingerprint but yeah it's funny you know Microsoft does have their awesome facial recognition hello where and it works really fast I don't know if you've tried it or not I haven't done that you just you look in the camera you say hello basically once you open your laptop it takes like two seconds it sees your face and it unlocks it that's pretty cool it's pretty hot it might even take less than two seconds it's it's pretty slick so you don't have to press or do anything like that I just I want my phone to just smell me and be like I walk up and it smells me and it's like oh okay Steve's here did you because it's April Fool's just really quickly Intel I think it was Intel I can't remember but they put out a bunch of different new ways of like security and one of them was a scent detector and then the other one was a saliva a biometric detector so they showed a guy licking his iPhone I don't know anyone here that's done that before hmm just saying that's fighting that but he was like going at it going at it like normal robbery real gnarly yeah um but you know what I'd like to do right now yes I'd like to read a message from today's sponsor that's right an Apple byte extra crunchy bring in it and get some music are you gonna give us a little get us in the mood yeah go ahead ladies and gentlemen boys and girls today's sponsor is Casper mattresses obsessively engineered american-made mattresses at a shockingly fair price and now you you you you can get fifty dollars towards any mattress purchased by going to Casper dot-com slash Apple bite and using guess what code Apple bite listen you spent about a third of your life sleeping I probably spend more than that no less than that let's make sure you're doing it on a good mattress just the right sink just the right bounce to technology is a hybrid of latex foam and memory foam they've got a risk-free trial and return policy they'll deliver it straight to you you can try it for 100 days and if you're not happy they'll pick it back up at the store maybe you'll get a minute to dry their mattresses I'm like the worst reader right now with Casper you'll actually get to sleep on it it's $500 for a twin size mattress and 950 dollars for a king-sized mattress comparing that to industry averages that's an outstanding price point so get $50 towards any mattress purchase by going to Casper com Apple bite and using code Apple buy terms and conditions apply juicy juicy moving right along we have guess what we have more patent stories for you yes because if this is stuff that they're putting in their devices in the next few years this is cool sometimes there's like some out there pants that we never see like a virtual reality interface I'm like Apple doesn't even have anything virtuality reading right now that's coming out in five years more not at all yeah but this one's pretty sweet the Apple watch they've shown off a new patent where it shows up this kind of like the best way to describe this is a modular this is smart watch links this is smart that link together and these specific links can actually do different things so what it's leveraging is when the Apple watch first came out there's like a port on the side near one of the smart bands on the body of the Apple watch uh-huh and it was revealed that it it's it is their Diagnostics port but it supplies data and power so this patent would leverage that power and data that it stores and then use it to connect different types of links or even talk to different devices because of this diagnostic port and leverage the Apple watch to be able to do a lot more different things this is great because they're running out of real estate really quick on the Apple watch you know make the Apple watch smaller and more slim and then basically you can have more functionality all the way around your wrist so I think this is great listen check this out this is what this patent is talking about by doing by adding some of these additional links or you know let's call them smart links cuz no apples gonna do something like that yeah you could add things like more batteries input and output devices haptic devices displays health sensors add Wi-Fi through like a link on your watch it it's almost like if you've heard of project ara which was the modular smartphone that Google's been working on it was originally for Motorola I believe if I'm wrong Kurt you can you guys can scold me on the comments but this would be kind of their equivalent with some with specific modules again this is way down the line but I could see it happening sooner rather than later definitely definitely a little extra battery juice just by provided by a link on your watch that's and then use of that induction charging we were talking about so you can just rest your watch to get an extra charge on your laptop that's cool it's super cool I think it's great super cool stuff so look out for that potential modular set up from Apple then another really cool one with the Apple we related to the Apple watch and we know we're expecting to see the Apple watch this year the new one I'm guessing they'll show off some more features of watch OS at WWDC but I'm gonna also guess that the Apple watch itself will have its own event I don't think we'll see it at WWDC that's just my gut I have no information that says that it's going to be that way but I think WWDC is really gonna be all about the MacBooks WWDC dubbed up so this cool this additional patent about the Apple watch shows new motion research that reveals gestures may be supported in the future by the Apple watch so you know speak to the hand this is kind of cool to speak to the hand speak to the hand yeah you can do things like if you get a call you can do a gesture to like swipe it on down right swipe away answer or not it can detect your movements of your wrist but what I thought would made this thing super special is when it gets in a more specific movement so what if you're talking about doing it may be individual sign language yeah or things like that this is what the patent talks about based on either the tendon movement or electrical signal or both the Apple watch can determine the users motion and gesture the motion and gestures can be interpreted as commands but it can detect like your tendons the tendons flexing from your wrist will then help indicate what you're actually doing with your fingers therefore leading to the Apple watch interpreting that which is crazy I mean it's like that's right we're getting closer and closer to just being like you know Bionic Bionic robot people that the singularity is on its way even faster than we thought that is cray but it is cool so like thinking you can have a Spock you can have a Spock side yeah totally new with that what would that do maybe I don't have some app developers get on that maybe if you got a phone call you could create sounds that are like voice responses to the call like you know I'm I can't I can't pick up the Apple I can't pick up my Apple watch right now you do a little Spock sign and all it says it that's pretty cool it's very cool I also just kind of other news this time we're transitioning over to the Apple TV we've talked about Apple really needing to start creating some new content are you watching anything on that flicks right now I know your business ad and everything I don't there's actually don't know I just have Amazon Prime I would give you access to my account but I've literally given it to like its share as Netflix they they promote sharing they're like police sure they do but I've already shared it with too many people that's the problem I'm gonna survive without Netflix for now you you will for now but I honestly Netflix has changed like they have so much good stuff on there now that's exclusive I'm just like my mind is blown and they're spending they're throwing millions of dollars towards new content that we're gonna see in the next year too and I that platform is amazing and it still saddens me that you haven't seen daredevil season 1 or daredevil season 2 like I'm not a daredevil fan I really I don't really know but yeah but what's that what's the guy's name Vince did you know the guy who plays kingpin oh yes Vincent D'Onofrio Janabi oh yeah you guys awesome I love him yeah it kind of looks like you - I'll you kind of relate to him I don't relate to him but some really good movies sell I'm not saying all white people look alike but there's a little resemblance here hey Brian it was like Bruce Lee yeah hey Brian you look like Jackie Chan no I don't well I mean I'll take that I'll take my friend Ali's watching right now she's a big private pyle fan so I don't think she would even say I look like him I'm not saying you look okay let's not let's not generalize this you don't look like him but there are at least faux similarities what's the chatroom say we've got to be watching and they're saying hell no no way to find a picture of him real quick okay well you find a picture of him I'm gonna talk about apples for Reina content there was a story reported earlier that they were going to do kind of like a a bio a semi TV series based on dr. Dre's life that was gonna be very graphic mature what this mute do you want to hear what this second project that has been talked about according to New York Times is going to be yeah I know I read about it okay it's a non scripted series ladies and gentlemen it sounds awful about apps it's going to be a partnership with will.i.am who I actually sounds awful okay sorry so 2000 and late okay your 2000 and late isn't that from the actual he's like yo I'm 2008 great okay so will I am it's gonna be will I am and then TV executives Ben Silverman and Howard T Owens a new show that will spotlight the app economy Wow I guess it could be compelling it's like a marketing ality show this seems more like propaganda like from the surface sounds like propaganda to me or if it's like a Silicon Valley slash reality show slash how to game the App Store like I mean you gotta have really interesting people to make that show yeah well I am you're already you're already losing I'm sorry okay the only reason why I've actually met him and I've been able to talk to oh yeah you interviewed him but the reason why I do like him I will say for the record is because although he makes products that I will never buy his whole mentality behind that is look I'm a kid from the streets and I have I have the ability to have my own company and make an actual tech product and that in itself is a victory yeah it's like that message to give down to people that are less fortunate that are having heart that are in a hardship like to be able to be like yeah I was a kid from the streets and now like I got to this level of course his music is really what drove that but so that's why I like because we're not they don't dislike him I don't listen music okay I just think it's my bad it's a very bad choice by Apple to choose a musician to be on a TV show he's never been on television is the same thing they do with dr. Dre is he gonna like gonna get a whole like artist appeal television stars now so yeah I I'm not saying I will watch the show I'm not defending the show by any means Steve and I are on exactly the same page I'm not saying Steven Beecham thinks he's lame well maybe certain things he does his name cuz certain things he does is lame but uh you know he was really heartfelt when he went to that to place he like for some reason he started getting deep with me and I was like let's go there let's go there we'll I am let's get you gotta go watch that by the way yeah Bureau does kind of look like me okay there's that's even that's not even a good picture of him he's like that's not even a good there are subtle similarities okay that's all subtle did they did a chatroom confirm my beliefs yeah actually I'm getting 5050 here I'm someone saying no way yes way yeah it's kind of 50/50 it's split in the chatroom okay okay fifty-fifty what did they all say I do look like Bruce Lee though that's racist you look like Rufio from I took a picture with Rufio at Comic Con cuz like he's not really recognizable yeah his name is the actor Dante Basco and it was like Rufio meets Rufio and it was like if you gave a care about Rufio you think it was really cool people I used to care about him Rufio was awesome man he was he was like come on let's be honest when you're an Asian guy he was like he was like and I was like but probably the last time we saw an Asian guy in a movie after him was like 20 years later all right um let's go let's go to the college al we yeah got some awesome college hockey also uh we'll go hit those then we got a little parting gift for you guys before we head on out all right first call us from Allen's giving BT a heads up I love your podcast just want you to know you look at the Apple Store as of yesterday they do now offer an iPad pro twelve point nine inch in the 256 K model that should be out next week but you can go ahead and order that now have a great day sir okay okay Lin I love the fact first of all that we've got lady callers that are into this show so thank you yes Lin why are you taunting me like she knew I was having a mental breakdown when they were announcing the nine point seven inch iPad pro and she was like you can order away I'm like Lin I can't order it because I spent like a G on a on a freaking iPad pro that only had 128 it's just not the same so go ahead and order bride s-sometimes Bank not the same mm-hmm anyways Thank You Lynn for calling we love you ladies out there keep on calling yes please alright next call Matt yeah it's Matt for Framingham I was calling asking actually I have a macbook 15 inch retina and instead of updating the internal hardware harddrive excuse me to hold more of my media library if there was any better option I've looked into Plex but you have to have an actual hard drive or use your computer to store as usual media i watch a lot of movies shows with it didn't know if you guys knew of a better option you could let me know that was great thanks Joe okay first of all just Lyn it was actually watching the periscope live right now I'm serious and I just happen to look at it and says it's me and I'm like why I Lynn I like wave to you thanks she says lollipop just to confirm nice no no okay to your question sir I forgot what was because I got this mats from Brad him so I actually have a solution that I use that I think might be able to help you there's this product that I think is the bomb it's called the Seagate wireless plus it's a one terabyte portable hard drive now why is this special on this hard drive it not only talks to iOS devices so for example when I travel a lot because I don't have a 256 iPad pro I can load all my movies onto this wireless hard hard drive there's an app that I can go to and then I can just watch those movies remotely from that Wireless hard drive it also works with Macs and PCs I've never had a problem with it personally is this it right here yes it is the boss it's cheap - yes that's a 2 terabyte one that you're looking at only two hundy - honey's 4 - Terry's - honey 4 - Terry's that's I don't know what else the 1 terabyte I'm just looking I'm not they're not our sponsor but maybe they should be after I say this Oh once T 9 the one terabyte on Best Buy is on sale right now for one $37.99 and they're also doing price matching so you don't want to go see what that looks like on Amazon you know pretty often so that that would be a solution that I would look into so that you don't have to have like like you said with Plex and also lived it this is a super portable drive I love it I love it cool all right let's go next call Nick from my home town Alameda Alameda hi this is Nick from Alameda I love the show hey just want to let you guys know I read a book probably a few years ago in the guards - the marketing strategies of Apple and when Jobs came back he compared Apple to other companies and decided that a long product line wasn't the answer you know not having five or six phones different models different makes what he did was he says look we're gonna have a super version and we're gonna have a baseline model I believe Apple as a whole is getting away from that core principle and I think it could be the nail in the coffin if they don't correct course there's no reason to have an iPhone seven pro model or whatever it's called just give me an iPhone 7s plus an iPhone 7s or an iPhone seven and an iPhone 7 plus thanks a bunch enjoy the show and have a good day that's a great call I have felt that way for the longest time just because if you look at Apple's iPhone lineup right now they have the SE the vi vi plus the 6s and the 6s plus so technically their line is five phones right now yeah okay I get what they're trying to do but they need to simplify the iPad line is now ipad mini ipad well they're just trying to call it the iPad pro but it's a mini a nine point seven and a twelve point nine and look that's okay if you want if you want to do that and get yourself in every nook and cranny which is they have followed basically the Samsung model of making things at different sizes these are business decisions and it's quite honestly though from a business standpoint I've got to imagine just purely because of apples muscle and marketing sighs it has worked out for them but when you look at some of the product lines you're like what is going on here this is again just to reinforce that idea whether you like it or not this is not the same Apple that you are used to yeah not upsetting their customers and people don't want to hear that I get it all the time oh my gosh I love it when someone says like you're such a cover and someone's like oh you suck apples blah blah blah that's like I must be doing something right yeah we're like a bad your honor yeah I'm just like I just want to let you know people watching periscope someone was really pushing for our gentleman to use a zip drive like a printer cable until I can I Omega zip drive that's straight up like 90s man that's cracking me up cracking me up all right next call next call Charlotte Tyler from Charlotte hey Brian and Beechum's Tyler from Charlotte I was wondering if y'all heard any developments with Apple pay and if they're going to be moving to like a magnetic secure transmission kind of like Samsung pay I feel like one of the big holdups with Apple pays not widely accepted in all like retails places so it really makes me want to switch to a Samsung phone so I had that ability I was wondering if you've heard anything about it alright thanks this is a great question so what we're summarizing basically Samsung has the ability to not only use their kind of fingerprint scanner to authenticate Wireless transactions that also is able to communicate to the old-school magnetic strip credit card readers this is an acquisition they made with a company called loop pay I think about mid last year and everyone was like oh that's really cool because it'll work with every like now like 95% of setups at retail Apple does not the technology the way that touch ID and Apple pay works it's purely an NFC transaction it cannot talk to the old-school magnetic readers unless they do something different or at a different component Apple pay will not work with that and there are no indications that they're going to they're even one out of five people are using Apple pay right now that habit which is actually pretty low I tried to use it the other day and I failed and it didn't work and you're like forget that I didn't finish my word guys someone used my credit card at like a Victoria's Secret in oakville Oh someone so it got it got turned off I didn't know someone stole my they love you they really did yeah they they came shopping for your wife or somebody must have swiped my card in a gas station and someone stole my car they went spend a bunch of money so I was all excited I was somewhere and there was Apple pay there I'm like oh my god I'm gonna use Apple pay right now I went to get my car and it was like shut off so what such a big fail on my part dang so fun story fun story right guys great great always always great story man that sucks but I don't see it happening any time soon I don't know if it's necessarily worth changing platforms for but if that's really the differentiator for you then go ahead and do it I you know everyone changes switches things up for whatever reason so I ain't gonna hate ya just keep on listen to our dope show so a couple more calls will you talk about pokemons go yes we'll talk about Pokemon what hey hey who's screening these calls will we talk about pokemons go okay for the record I do not have the app for iOS pokemons go not gonna try it but I will tell you I do have quite a badass blue deck that dominates actually I lose a lot to my nephew who's like seven because he has way better cards of me but I actually played the real physical Pokemon game so and if you don't man it's awesome level up level up y'all okay so we talked about it we talked about we talked about Pokemon event right didn't we we just gave some love that's okay hey quick just to show you how much love that we've got in this show Calvin and Anthony the two brothers that were just arguing at each other in the car last like two shows ago are they in the Paris get on the pair they're watching live with this I just wanna give my phone number guys I got your phone will talk to you all will talk to y'all okay last call whoops last call let me listen to more Pokemon movie song that is actually on a playlist from a YouTube channel by the way just I play it for my kids all the time I'm sure you do sure you sure it's not for yourself I see okay this is Abdul from Iowa hello my name is Abdul from Iowa and I have two questions for you guys about you know Apple and what they're doing right now so do you guys think will Apple ever update the Thunderbolt Display and my second question is you know looking at the art industry you know Mac and Apple is what artists and creatives use do you guys still think that Apple even you know isn't you know is still known for that or do you guys think that oh they don't even care about that user base and this goes to the consumer not you know how they market their you know the pro models of iPad MacBooks and whatnot all right yeah that's it I live the struggle guys keep it up all right thank you for calling that's a great call the last time Apple updated their Thunderbolt Display were actually released the first one was approximately four years ago Wow so they you know they're also with their interface is changing we have the Apple MacBook 12 inch that's just a USBC connection it'll be interesting to see what they're doing there's so many like 4k 5k screens out there now these days yes and it's like come on Apple what are you doing maybe to me if they have an update if they do not update the screen this year at WWDC with the announcement of new Macs I don't I think that they might just be out of the monitor display business as just a separate display i they've literally done nothing they have their show nothing that they are looking at that I could be wrong but we'll see what happens at WWDC yeah the second question though is Apple still catering towards the pros we both are gonna how about let let you start off on this Steven uh kind of what are you where's your brain at I definitely think so I mean you know if you go to a concert a lot of the bands have like a MacBook sitting on there on the stage you know like you see it at a concerts all the time I always see max for music also modeling agencies like photographers I know that they still use it a lot I you know sometimes I'll catch a rerun of a what is it the modeling show America's Next Top Model I saw some sometimes when you happen to catch it up and say I've been to catch them randomly happens to pop up on TV they always have a Mac always using Mac for their pictures you know solely random it's very Pro very random you never looking channels when I'm searching for America's Next Top Model here at our studios we use pretty much all Macs to do our video editing but yes I will say this Apple has changed their priorities from a standpoint of internally if you look at what they did with Final Cut I I think they really shook up things they might say it was for the better but most people that used Final Cut will say it was a step back and most people because of that have started or are or are transitioning either to premiere or back to avid yes it's changed the dynamic of pros in the video business Apple's Final Cut Pro X still does some cool things like it's real-time rendering is probably it's the best asset but just the way that you organize your video clips it I mean I don't want to keep on harping on it but people will kind of joke and call it iMovie Pro yeah I mean we actually tested guys that we work with tested it out when it first came out and they're like we just we can't use this we can't work with it it's too difficult they changed just the general flow of things so much that sometimes guess what it might work with hardware but when it comes to software things that you have used for years you don't want to like do a fundamental from the ground up change on how you actually use and interact with a program for pro for pros totally and so to relearn you it's learning curve even avid system is really just a different way of doing things but if avid said we're gonna completely do this different like and scrap their interface and people that have learned on it for years they're gonna be sure it's gonna be a shakeout they're like what I'm gonna go jump ship yeah so you know when I saw how Apple did that even their support of what's that that there is it's not Lightroom is it aperture their pro app I'm not sure there was there pro photo app they kind of stopped supporting that and saying oh yeah your aperture libraries can be put into iPhoto and people like what so I think from a software standpoint apples look you can only do so many things and when you're expanding to all these different categories mobile devices iOS you're gonna take manpower from these different areas and you've seen it specifically in their pro software that's how I feel but iPad pro for artists I ain't seen no one created I'm still waiting to see it's only been eight on an iPad pro oh my four months feature enough I I can contribute some something from my adult coloring book yes you know well I just and it's not again I have to all history it's not what you guys think it is you perverts it's like look up adult coloring book it's actually just like geometric patterns and like it's stuff it's like therapy it's like good women it's not naked nothing else it's like waves it's like psychedelic ass yeah it is it is and you just color it in it so alright everybody um I think we're gonna wrap it up for today that was that was great we had some fun times with you all thank you so much for watching remember you can always call us
