Sit down, beat on ninety seven to one the freak. Get some numbers for you for the Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator job. The names you need to know because they are up to something here. As they lost Dan Quinn yesterday. We'll dive into that at seven. And it's already caused maybe a little bit of an internal chaos. So tweets have been fired out, some players already throwing out some grenades of who they want the DC to be. Seven
o'clock. We'll dive into that right now. Let's do this. Says they used to eat Phil after he made his prediction? Are they gonna eat that groundhog? People like, weak up your little sleepyhead, It's time to get your stupid ass out of bed. It's a groundhop thing. And you've seen Phil and they say that he's immortal, elixir of life every summer. He's got a wife named Phyllis. Yeah, they never had kids. He's Kevin Turner. Danny boy else is here. My name is Mike Siroy. J.
J. Jackson's here. Good morning, JJ, Good morning, Hi JJ. You into uh Bucks to Towney Phil and Groundhog Day. That was a very Caucasian moment there. You guys, have you ever seen the three of us so excited? Just thank you for that. That's how we like to kick off Black History. Mother, you got one day, you got one day, and then day and then the Honkys retook it. You had all those return cuts yesterday. Give it back. Okay. He's not the
only one, though. There are other animals that predict the weather, like Lucy the Lobster in Nova Scotia. I trust Lucy the Lobster a little more Manitoba merv Up in Canada Ballzac Billy and Alberta, Canada ballsack Billy. That's like a guy I went to high school with Foo Foo the hedgehog in Oregon. What do they do? Is it all shadow based? I don't think the lobster lobsters don't cast shadows. Kevin Scramble the Duck in Connecticut that sounds
like a band opening for Minus the Bear. Scramble the Duck. It's because it's cottage industries. They're trying to make money off of it. Fine, that's all they've done. Who's ever heard of Gobbler's Knob is Puck's the Tawnia City. I have no idea, but look at all the sponsored tints they have, right, so they have it. It's working and that's why the Nova Scotia is like, dude, we need a bit What do we do? Do we have a bit Day in our city? Yeah? I mean
will we try to take back St. Patrick's Day for whatever reason? But that's pretty common in big cities to have the Saint Patrick's Day parade that they turned the November is our big day and is weird? Today's a big day? Guys? First time? What's going on? Man? If you heard of Apple? You guys have Apple phones. We like Apple, whether or not you want to admit you like it or support it, you pump money galore and Apple. Well. For the first time in seven years, Apple's
latest new product drops today. What was the last thing they did? I don't know. Was it? I don't know seven years ago. This is their first new product in seven years because everything else has just been updated on right? What is their latest technology before this? I don't know. I'll look that up. Look up twenty sixteen. Twenty sixteen new Apple product? Got it iPad? Okay, I don't know, that might be enough to
add. Don't know it was a new ip oh the watch? Oh yeah, that's what it is, which I love and you have that and love it. Yeah, Christina has one, loves it. She gave me her old one. I wore it for one day and took it off. Yeah, I just didn't understand what it was adding added value. I have my phone, I have it all, but I get it. And you get text on your wristwatch and you like it. Oh, I don't use it for text. I use it just to tract my sleep and for health.
Okay, you know, could have been in little pictures of mine. Maybe maybe the watch was updated, but I'm seeing that. January six, twenty sixteen, the launch of the all new Apple TV and Apple Watch. I paved the way for entirely new app experiences. Yes, so that you had Apple TV and the Watch. So that's the last thing they did that was like brand new, right all right, well nearly seven years ago to the
day, but today is a huge one and better or worse. We do have some lines, at least up in the Northeast at Apple stores as people are trying to get their hands on the Vision Pro. Whoa and this is the headset the competitor to Meta, who came up with their big new Headset Quest, Meta Quest three, whatever it was. As they're trying to it just seems like for most of our adult lives they've been trying to get us
to wear these things on our heads. And when you say headset, you're if you don't, it's more like the VR goggle experience, right, that kind of it's they're calling a mixed reality headset, but yes, it's VR goggles essentially, although spatial computing is the term that Apple is trying to push instead of saying another VR headset or VR goggles, which have a fairly long history of not exactly working. And the thing with the VR goggles is you
put them on and you're in a self contained world. Then with this you're able to see the world around you. Yes you can. Uh, there's a knob or a dial that determines the level of how immerged it is. You can shut it all the way I assume to the right, and it will lock out the external world. You won't be able to see anything, and you can watch movies and do it and in the environment of the movie.
Someone I read a real big review and a guy who wore these for two days, the New Vision Pro, and he's like, I watched a movie. I watched one of the Avengers movie and you're in the Avengers tower, like that's where like you're in the loading screen almost that's the idea. And he's like, it was really cool. I mean, some of the reviews on this say it's really cool. And I guess as the new products from different companies launch, yeah, we make steps forward and get closer.
But for those of us with iPhones, this is probably the most realistic one for us because it does sync with your MacBook, it syncs with your iPhone. It does so fairly seamlessly, just like if you get a new iPhone. I mean, you got your cloud stuff saved and you log in and there's your stuff. So they make it easier, you know, you don't have to make that jump and relog in and start all this stuff. But
yeah, it's a mixed reality headset. It goes on sale at Apple stores across the country today, and you know, they're still working on the potential for augmented reality. How it helps people communicate, collaborate. They say, this particular device blends both VR virtual reality and augmented reality. That as you said, overlays virtual image is live video of the real world, so you know, and they're arguing and still believe, and there are big brains.
I still think this is the thing. Now, price do you guys know? You know? Do you know? Am I right that it was thirty five hundred dollars? It's thirty four ninety nine, okay, Kevin? So you as thirty four for the the computer that you wear on your face. It'll have two hundred and fifty six gigabytes of storage. Also, one immediate concern, which I didn't even think about, is the prescription lends inserts for the device that might have to purchase starting at one hundred and four nine dollars.
And then I don't wear prescription glasses, but I do wear readers and reading lens inserts start at ninety nine bucks. As you slide those in between your face and the new thing. They say, once you factor an additional accessories like the two hundred dollars travel case, fifty dollars battery pack holder and more, you're looking at nearly forty five hundred bucks all in. So this is for rich people who need hobbies. Well, I've done it all and
they need to do something more. I don't know, like Danny said, I mean, the VHS player VCR used to cost thousands of dollars and now they don't, and now they're gone. But what they're counting on is they've got to have a big price point because you do have a lot of techies out there that have a lot of money that will basically pay for all of their research and development to where they get to a break even spot and then
they can start making profit with the masses by lowering the cost. I have an older brother, and he was always at the forefront of tech like. He was always a pretty successful dude and did really well in life and man, every Christmas we would come to Dallas to see him. He was my mom's, my adoptive mom's birth son that she had twenty two years before I was brought into the fold, and we would go visit him, and he would always have the latest gadget, the latest studio equipment, the latest best
TV, yeah, video audio recording, and it was cool. But you know, he would comment and he was very transparent with me. It's like, yeah, stuff's really expensive and it'll go down in a couple of years, but I don't know. It's just kind of my thing. I like being on top of this stuff and being one of the first to kind of test this stuff out. And what that does though, also is you get this stuff out now, then you start getting the reviews, you start finding
out what the glitches are. It's kind of like they're charging you a lot of money to become guinea pigs for new tech. Our elaborate We've always been the lab tech. You know, that's a lot of money to do it, Like you said, like the Facebook Meta one is about five hundred bucks yep, and this thing is thirty five thirty nine just to get just to get it strapped onto your head. Now. I read a review of this.
I think they had a prototype that came out maybe about a year ago, and it was released to a selected group of tech uh you know, magazines, publications, whatnot. And I did read a review that a woman did and she said, it's really cool, like you'll you'll be blown away at what this thing's capable capable of doing. But there were some issues with uh the connectivity of the like the physical connectivity of the earpiece, and the comfort level of the thing. I think it was like bulky. It sucked
to wear for long periods of time. But but I have a they have a dressed that stuff since that initial kind of prototype went out. They've been trying for a long time, and I've worn a couple. I wore the DJI one, which is made for drone piloting. I've tried them, never liked them. They feel heavy and they do feel clunky, but I think they're coming along. I'm not like giving up on this being a potential thing. And I read two people who reviewed it. There's a Vanity Fair article.
Listen to this. It's kind of an interesting paragraph. The author wore it for a few days, lived it like, tried to give it the best shot possible. The author says, when I take it off, every other device feels flat and boring. My seventy five inch o Lead TV feels like a CRT from the nineties, the old kind of TVs they had. My iPhone feels like a flip phone from yesteryear, and even the real world around me feels surprisingly flat. I don't want that. Well, you don't
want anything. You don't want this phone in your hand. That would have sounded insane five years before we all had phones in our hand. Like, I get it, and I'm not arguing with you. But that's that's how these things work until you realize, dude, this is awesome. Compatibility is a concern that they're figuring trying to figure out. They said, as of a week ago, it was only one hundred and fifty or so apps that were like, you know, lined up to work with this, but they
had a big dump and now they have. The company says more than six hundred apps and games have been designed to take advantage of vision vision pros capabilities and it's three D user interface. All most of the big apps Disney plus, ESPN, MLB, PGA Tour Max, Amazon Prime, Paramount plus, all of them, crunchy roll anyone is that a uh, I've heard of that. It's Funshi plus. I don't think that is. So they're doing Tempura on this thing. TikTok anyway, they're all ready to rock and just
to hit KT and I in the shorts. PGA Tour Vision app offers a golf game with real time shot tracking, access models on real golf courses. I don't even know exactly what that means, but that's how this crap works. And you're like, I don't ever need this. You're like, oh, hold on, I can watch PGA Tour kind of like I'm there,
and I don't know if that's even what they're saying. The NBA app offers streaming live of up the five broadcasts live around demand at once, five of them all in front of you as you still walk around to your daily life soccer fans. Because Apple TV is the host of MLS packages as are all ready to rock. Red Bull TV will include three D maps of races of F one races. I don't know, I'm just it sounds kind of cool. The more you read into it, and the reviews I read are people
are kind of like, this is pretty good. Yeah, And I think it's because of that comfort we have with Apple's products already that you get rid of that gray area in between jumping in and feeling comfortable with it. I read one that said the guy he said, after four or five hours of wearing it, he took it off. He took it off, just the face breathe. He's like, but I was never really uncomfortable with it.
I think it's lighter than before. I think they've addressed those things that you mentioned of feeling like you got this thing on your head, so I I mean, I don't know. I have as of this moment zero interest in purchasing one. But if Tim Cook and Apple walked through that door and said, hey, down beat big fans of the show. Tim Apple love Kevio you. Tim Apple was here and he put three of them on the desk
and said, try these out for a week. We'd love to get you hear what you guys think, It would be stoked, and I'd be watching Pebble Beach PGA this afternoon with the thing on my face. There's no doubt if it was even an option, that was an option paying for it thirty five hundred dollars you got me. I'm out already owe two thousand dollars to Apple. You know, yeah, I'm sure, and I'm already in the whole two thousand dollars to Apple is a spilled whiskey on my computer a few
years ago. It never getting that back. It is the fifty five hundred dollars VR headset for me. It is that dynamic of you don't think you want it or need it until you try it, and then, like you said, you know, these people like I don't like the I don't like the real world versus what's inside this thing. That's a little concerning because it's isolated and wrapped. We are into our by our phones and and and that whole experience that I think fewer people are living real out of out of the
house, authentic lives and more virtual lives. This is just the next next progression, you know, to that through that gate, probably for worse, but maybe who knows, for better? People do live these immersive lifestyles. And as Andy Dufrain said, you've come, you come this far, why not come a little further? And it feels like almost an inevitable next step of the trajectory that we're already on. I'm sure a lot of people were, you know, reluctant about crack until they took that first free hit,
and then this is prety good. They do crack on that later. I don't know. I don't know if we're ever gonna be wearing good. Well, how much do you how many people of our I've got pulled up our stats, our podcast stats, like people listen to the Freak right, how what percentage do you think use Apple compared to Android? Those numbers are always a little more. There's more Android users than I than I think offhand, because I'm Apple and I know demographically, uh, it's different, and regionally
it's different. I would say, I will say sixty six percent, no, fine, sixty eight percent to ninety percent are Yeah, that's a big that's a big wheel of cheese that he gets on the by Jart. I bet it's closer to fIF it's eighty three percent Apple wow. Wow. About thirteen percent use Android and then you get you know, people who are using it in different ways, like you know, desktops and tablets, but just our pod. They got us buy the balls they do, and they you
know, I'm glad they finally got the legislation pass to go. We're going universal on the USB C charger, you know, so they can't keep changing the phone charger out every five years and making us buy new phone chargers for fifty bucks. Finally that got solved, so we can all have one charger for our phone. They're going with the C USB's that's the name of it. But I'm not sure. You know, when I was I worked at a big five sporting goods in college, and I would sit there and unload
the truck at four am, and me and a buddy of mine. I would This is where Soroy Industries was born, and I had this idea. It was called hollow Sport International, and its back when you wanted to watch Mike Tyson fight and you buy a pay per view and you'd have to actually go pick up a box. Remember, like if you bought it, you'd have to go pick up a box and like plug it into your TV and then return it. I'm like, imagine if you had that same thing.
You pay two three, five hundred dollars and you show up to these people's house and you set up these four things in the corner of their of their room, and they're like projectors, and then on your coffee table is Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson holograms fighting. You're actually watching it, and I'm like that sounds so awesome. And then apply it to the masters and you can have an overlay of the whole and kind of watch Nick Price swing and walk
around the table and get a different perspective. Yeah, you see the ball fly, and then you can with your hands like my Minority report, zoom in. I mean, it seemed all inevitable. I just was clearly wrong on how we would ever get from A to B. But I feel like
this is right there. And if I can watch the Masters or watch F one and zoom into a part of the track and see all that like that, that is appealing and I am interested in that, not at those prices, but man, I feel like, just like everything, we're inching towards this, this type of advancement. And I am not gonna sit here and say forget that. I'll never mention in that, like I am interested in that. It'll get cheaper as the years go by. You know, it's
not always going to be thirty five hundred dollars. No, no, I agree, but apparently will always be strapping something onto your head even okay, and you know this too. As technology advances, the hardware gets smaller and smaller and smaller, So it won't be long before you're able to put this thing on and it's a little more than a pair of ray bands. Rather, it's gonna get chipped into your body, Okay, And that is okay, that's and I would like to think. And at my age, I'm
pretty sure I'll never have an operation that will help me with technology. I'm quite sure of that. Not positive, that's what I've tried to tell people, no offense, Danny, it's irresponsible to have children right now. You're setting them up for a wild world in about fifty maybe a magical, beautiful while maybe and maybe really hot. Ray Band had a thing with Meta where they have essentially just glasses, and maybe it's that you wear cool glasses and
I can just click a finger and record what's in front of me. Maybe that's a more realistic stepping stone towards where this thing has headed. And that's the thing. The control is basically you kind of just like finger motions, like you can tap your fingers twice to get something, uh, to call to action or whatever. You can kind of kind of just control it with
your hand hand movements. Like when you when you call up your your app screen, it will like like Mike you said, you'll be able to still see the room around you, but uh, like the apps will come up and you just kind of like reach up and swipe our click that one or double tap your finger on your or your thumb on your forefinger and it'll open that up and then you just navigate it all. But this, you know, we talked about just a few days ago. The the Elon musk technology
where the whatever that chip was in plant. Yeah, the neurlink is able. You we will there will be a day, and I doubt it will be in our lifetime where all of this stuff can somehow be integrated that you
think it and it appears in front of you. Yeah, like you controlled this VR technology just by thinking about what you wanted to do, which sounds nice until you realize that they've monetized it, so your stomach growls, and then add for McDonald's pops in or you start to get the slightest hint of a breakfast boner and then you're like, wait, why did I get like a porn hub ad? Those little things like that are gonna happen. Well, thirsty, you're going to see a dat coke ad of course. Thirty
five hundred bucks on sale today the Vision Pro from Apple. If you get one, we want a full review. Do you have time for the last time someone had to make a large technological purchase because they screwed up on the radio? Uh yeah, let's hear it. Oh yeah, thats a real question. Now, this is the last time one of us had to spend a bunch of money on a piece of equipment that they ruined when I was at home. Crank me up to j please. Okay, that's all over
the laptop. Knew that was gonna happen. Oh struggling. Oh no, oh, I hate what happens live. Oh no, it's all over. This could be the end of this laptop. Oh, this is disappointing. We're burning paper towels that you need in these times too. Oh please air dry. Oh this sucks. My computer start to act up. You can hear it. I could go off at any time. Guys, this is bad. I can hear it's starting to go. It's starting to make noises. Oh god, it's not liking it. Unplugging for a minute. This
is there, it goes. There goes the end of covid Kevio's live stream. Yeah, he had big plans. I was gonna save the Metroplex with Lockdown live. Yep. He was probably about to start doing Marble races. Never got to any other Those are the days because you decide it would be a good idea to refresh yourself with a giant glass of whiskey. Knock it over on your lappie. Oh no, oh jesus, ah, this sucks. Aw, this suck, suck. It was terrible. It's really funny.
We're already going through COVID and you add that to it. Yeah, Jesus, you had it worse than anyone in COVID times. Kevin. There's inherent fear in the unknown, but this AI virtual reality stuff, and that's the round amount of profound coming at you. Also here pill, he's holding his pill. Don't take it yet? Want you weird for one more segment? Who are the names that you need to know to fix the Cowboys defense? I know they're considering you. Tell you next time. Ninety seven one the Free
