◼
►
I have a bit of a cold can hear it just
◼
►
when you sniffle what kind of culture
◼
►
got I got the good kind
◼
►
I got the kind of don't i don't feel
◼
►
like my whole body doesn't feel sick and
◼
►
I only feel sick from like the neck up
◼
►
I feel like a constipated that's a good
◼
►
girl it's a good called I don't feel I
◼
►
hate a long cold now it's not a long
◼
►
cold it's it's it i feel like my head is
◼
►
a prop in a Nickelodeon TV show
◼
►
uh-huh uh-huh right just take it down
◼
►
from the shelf and snap it around if you
◼
►
stay with code word then this dinner
◼
►
then all the group is gonna is gonna
◼
►
oh god that was weird like I seem to
◼
►
like that goop little too much when
◼
►
there's some cute girl over the music
◼
►
career that was on there
◼
►
oh yeah otherwise i wanted some light on
◼
►
that my sister used to watch that show
◼
►
so the and so therefore i used to watch
◼
►
that show because what else are you
◼
►
going to do when someone else in your
◼
►
family with one TV set is watching the
◼
►
show that you don't even enjoy and that
◼
►
you're going to sit there and comment
◼
►
about how you don't enjoy it every
◼
►
single day during a half hour that it's
◼
►
not there is nothing else in the
◼
►
universe you could do during that time
◼
►
then to sit there and complain about it
◼
►
mm it's like a chain together because
◼
►
there's times when you're going to watch
◼
►
your baseball or whatever and she's
◼
►
going to be moaning and so you could
◼
►
always in cause a reaction similar to
◼
►
that when you watch it or as i
◼
►
understand i'm an only child as you know
◼
►
but you can also hit her understand I
◼
►
wish I was an only child
◼
►
mm I you know I never looked back to I
◼
►
gotta tell you the truth there's you
◼
►
know I few things get under my skin the
◼
►
way the phrase just the one gets under
◼
►
I don't know why that bothers bothers me
◼
►
so much but it really really bugs me and
◼
►
and I as an only child my daughter that
◼
►
are my wife is the youngest of seven so
◼
►
she she know that that's close to being
◼
►
it is an injury when you're the youngest
◼
►
you're very you you well I think there's
◼
►
really only one only child in a seven
◼
►
child family that's the oldest they take
◼
►
a thousand pictures that kid they take
◼
►
500 pictures in this connection you can
◼
►
do the math there's one picture of my
◼
►
daughter play something a little bit
◼
►
i think is one of her like getting a
◼
►
broken arm set in the garage or
◼
►
something with that perfect i'll be
◼
►
honest i find that stopping over x-ray
◼
►
it just says Madeline 1978 it's rubbed
◼
►
off and just broken wrists but you're
◼
►
doing well you certainly sound you sound
◼
►
great for Sigma now you see my command
◼
►
is not afraid to to tweak his body with
◼
►
the chemicals are indeed we take for
◼
►
that you do a sudafed you go go to the
◼
►
pharmacy now here if we want to get
◼
►
sudafed the real thing
◼
►
the stuff that really works you gotta go
◼
►
I guess its federal do you have to go to
◼
►
the pharmacy and plopped down in july i
◼
►
have honestly given up on legitimate
◼
►
sudafed I don't know that we have any
◼
►
might have some stashed away somewhere
◼
►
where I used to I used to always suffer
◼
►
and and take nothing and then Amy would
◼
►
tell me you're an idiot you're all
◼
►
stuffed up you got to take some sudafed
◼
►
and i would take some sudafed and then I
◼
►
would realize you know this is a there's
◼
►
a there's a medicine that actually does
◼
►
what it's supposed to do but it really
◼
►
isit's yeah i know you you've used one
◼
►
of your recurring bit but the way you
◼
►
know the the the but hoops you have to
◼
►
jump through now to buy sudafed united
◼
►
states are so absurd that it i realized
◼
►
i was a bit i polished not even a bit
◼
►
but it's it's a very frustrating
◼
►
yeah because it's you know it's
◼
►
something that actually worked it worked
◼
►
as you know people people used to walk
◼
►
in there in the days when I would enjoy
◼
►
faedron it used to be you could walk in
◼
►
there the ephedrine that I used to get
◼
►
the really good stuff the unadulterated
◼
►
unadulterated stuff that i would buy for
◼
►
band practice in the eighties you get a
◼
►
bottle of like think 50 for three
◼
►
dollars American seeing a malt liquor
◼
►
and fifty ephedrine for less than five
◼
►
bucks so you know that's right company
◼
►
so people go in there and these these
◼
►
low-level doofuses would go in and steal
◼
►
packages and packages sudafed and then I
◼
►
guess make a small amount of my theory
◼
►
on this is that it is to stop illegal
◼
►
drug production i believe but you know
◼
►
you watch more movies I don't think
◼
►
that's how you do it you want to
◼
►
lufthansa level heights you're not gonna
◼
►
go to walgreens for times like you're
◼
►
going to think bigger
◼
►
I think you have hijacked a truck you'll
◼
►
stick something in your gang jacket and
◼
►
walk out yeah I don't understand why it
◼
►
using a ball limit you know that you
◼
►
could buy 10 24 capsules in a single
◼
►
transaction at the counter because if
◼
►
you if you know Phyllis some kind of
◼
►
reasonable limit like that then how
◼
►
would you possibly a mass large-scale
◼
►
amounts of this stuff wouldn't be worth
◼
►
it i mean you definitely you know what
◼
►
if you just hop around town to every
◼
►
single walgreens that you would get you
◼
►
know picking up 24 at a time that dead
◼
►
but by the end of the day you'd end up
◼
►
with don't know you know hundred and
◼
►
forty capsules give a sense of how much
◼
►
meth you could make on a day like that i
◼
►
don't know i don't know i'm guessing not
◼
►
like a lot even if you have a bathtub
◼
►
and the right chemicals i bet you can't
◼
►
make a time math with that much cold
◼
►
medicine yeah I just don't get it i feel
◼
►
like it's over reaction and I've i never
◼
►
i personally have never and enjoyed
◼
►
sudafed and I i guess i feel that way
◼
►
about a lot of former college illogical
◼
►
you let go in the other direction
◼
►
yeah I like you like something that
◼
►
comes with fellow yeah exactly exactly
◼
►
what i don't need is we have cold like
◼
►
this i don't i don't need anything
◼
►
soon you don't you ever do the theraflu
◼
►
I've tried crap like that never does
◼
►
anything em they're flowing imodium and
◼
►
that's what keeps this country running
◼
►
hey I would get so much less
◼
►
accomplished in the aggregate without
◼
►
this two things i'm not saying take them
◼
►
at once unless you're gonna drink a lot
◼
►
of water but it's nice you know it's
◼
►
like Nietzsche says it's nice to know
◼
►
the motive is is I was one of the best
◼
►
named best put a name they came up with
◼
►
what would you have called it I don't
◼
►
know but somehow it connotes what it
◼
►
does without being gross and you know
◼
►
that that's you know that that's what
◼
►
the meeting was that somebody at the
◼
►
meeting they they said look we're
◼
►
nobody's getting up from this table
◼
►
until we come up with a name for this
◼
►
thing right we know it works reasonably
◼
►
happens to show networks it
◼
►
yeah the the pointy headed guy from the
◼
►
lab is like well it has to end with a
◼
►
modem it has to end with odium for legal
◼
►
reasons and yeah but what people get a
◼
►
sense that it works immediately
◼
►
wait a minute well let's go to the
◼
►
whiteboard immediate code and I got no
◼
►
sure sure everything is a modem is like
◼
►
be really went beer in mobile you'll eat
◼
►
you pay for imodium a couple days later
◼
►
I don't want the real your show but just
◼
►
so you know if you take a lot of imodium
◼
►
like a therapeutic dose it doesn't mean
◼
►
you know what i mean it's it's like
◼
►
you're basically you're sweeping that
◼
►
detris under the rug and that rug will
◼
►
eventually get full probably kind of
◼
►
gross i'm also i also would like to find
◼
►
out what you really show but i would
◼
►
like to thank you also for first of all
◼
►
making me really want what's the name of
◼
►
Henry box Brown oh my god that sounds so
◼
►
good and also I'm just very grateful
◼
►
that you have taught me about the
◼
►
existence of mr. Henry box Brown always
◼
►
another great story isn't it was an
◼
►
urban myth and I can't believe that's
◼
►
there's a couple of mean I could go on
◼
►
and on and on about Hopsin under mat and
◼
►
someday like I want to come to
◼
►
Philadelphia just to go to someday I
◼
►
want to I you know you're on you're the
◼
►
guy who I know if I could get you in the
◼
►
right mood you would love it but you're
◼
►
the one friend of mine who I worry that
◼
►
that maybe you wouldn't is a fan is it
◼
►
like talking about your drink guy rolled
◼
►
up sleeves don't know you but but but
◼
►
you you you might worry that it is when
◼
►
you get there you might think all this
◼
►
is going to be one of those places but
◼
►
it's not i think if i get a couple box
◼
►
Browns under my belt i'm going to help
◼
►
right right one of the things is and and
◼
►
and you're going to use you hear this
◼
►
and i know you're going to worry that
◼
►
the place odds that place there's ok
◼
►
there's no signage there's no marking on
◼
►
the outside that says this is Hopsin
◼
►
line no Matt and in fact it's in a
◼
►
stretch of Chinatown here in
◼
►
Philadelphia is on the side of the
◼
►
street where it you really wouldn't
◼
►
think there's any open retail
◼
►
establishments on that street on the
◼
►
other side of the street there's a
◼
►
couple of nice chinese restaurants but
◼
►
on this side of the street it looks like
◼
►
everything's closed including the
◼
►
building where Hopsin yes and there's
◼
►
there's a like metal gate in front of
◼
►
the door and a little buzzer to ring the
◼
►
buzzer and maybe the guy comes out maybe
◼
►
nobody comes out and you just stand
◼
►
there in your weight and eventually
◼
►
somebody comes out and if there is any
◼
►
room available they will let you in and
◼
►
if there is no room available they will
◼
►
then you'll have to wait because they
◼
►
don't want anybody it's a type of place
◼
►
and I appreciate this is some more like
◼
►
you're almost like a restaurant where
◼
►
you're not allowed to just stand around
◼
►
either have a seat at the bar or you
◼
►
have a table or you're not inside yet
◼
►
they have a little auntie room for you
◼
►
come in and and lead the owner you will
◼
►
explain the rules of the place to the
◼
►
antechamber the entire floor is paved
◼
►
with tails up pennies from corner to
◼
►
well except there's two or three of them
◼
►
their heads up if you look closely it's
◼
►
beautiful though it's really really have
◼
►
a they have rules and apparently they
◼
►
have is it accurate they have a dress
◼
►
code they do have a dress code
◼
►
just like the number one Google searches
◼
►
like four hops along the address
◼
►
definitely a dress code you cannot you
◼
►
can't get in there with shorts not
◼
►
really a problem at this time of year
◼
►
but no shorts no flip-flops gotta look
◼
►
like an adult that should that should
◼
►
just be a rule everywhere i think is
◼
►
sneakers might be a problem
◼
►
i I'm not sure so that might be the one
◼
►
thing that I in John just what I will I
◼
►
I'm gonna come here just for that I will
◼
►
make it work because this and it's the
◼
►
key to this is the than if i meet you
◼
►
want maybe you want to tell your
◼
►
audience with this is it sounds like a
◼
►
very deceptively simple drought that has
◼
►
a couple of important well I'll tell you
◼
►
the first time I had the first time I
◼
►
had it I've been intrigued by hop sing
◼
►
ever since I heard about it and it was
◼
►
I don't know your and a half ago or
◼
►
something like that and i had my eye on
◼
►
it and kept checking a couple of the was
◼
►
like the only thing that made me check
◼
►
the Philadelphia food blogs and stuff
◼
►
like that and it never seen you know and
◼
►
I'd go past it and look and of course
◼
►
and even now it doesn't really look like
◼
►
it's open but there was never any spread
◼
►
sign that the thing was ever getting
◼
►
closer to opening and then about a year
◼
►
ago it was supposed to open right after
◼
►
like new years you know 11 months ago or
◼
►
whatever it was it was getting rumored
◼
►
that it was going to be was going to
◼
►
open soon and the word was that if you
◼
►
don't follow him on Twitter that you can
◼
►
maybe get invited in early so I just all
◼
►
I did was follow the guy and and I don't
◼
►
know week or two later I got like a I
◼
►
don't know there's a gnat reply or DM or
◼
►
something but it was you know you if you
◼
►
want to come in for a tasting we're
◼
►
having a tasting invitation-only tasting
◼
►
tuesday night you want to come in and I
◼
►
was like yeah of course although i had
◼
►
no you know what actually I could just
◼
►
go on and on with this guy that is so
◼
►
actually what he did was that before i
◼
►
got invited to the tasting he invited me
◼
►
and Amy to come in one afternoon just to
◼
►
see the place that's right I said I
◼
►
didn't get a drink the first time I went
◼
►
so Amy and I come over it's like a
◼
►
Tuesday afternoon and Jonas stone school
◼
►
and he lets us in were you hoping just
◼
►
curiosity when you went there all
◼
►
Genesis at school we kind of hoping to
◼
►
get a drink now I because I didn't think
◼
►
it was even legal because i don't think
◼
►
that it was you know I mean they're just
◼
►
like a lot of Licensing type situation
◼
►
not that you can't you know
◼
►
pour one out you know on this like to
◼
►
see had one before you write but we go
◼
►
in and we come in the main room and it
◼
►
really is it's just a beautiful it's
◼
►
just beautiful I can't do any justice to
◼
►
I mean there's a couple of photographs
◼
►
that are out there of the room but it
◼
►
really is just a beautiful place and he
◼
►
was showing us some of the stuff but the
◼
►
there's a guy sitting at a table in the
◼
►
middle of the room a young guy maybe at
◼
►
22 23 and and then offhandedly we have
◼
►
no what we have no idea who he is he's
◼
►
just sitting there like sort of very
◼
►
straight back in about five minutes in
◼
►
li lets us know that this guy was in
◼
►
here he's in here interviewing for a job
◼
►
as a bartender and in the meantime
◼
►
Natalie isn't paying any attention to
◼
►
him and he apparently abandoned the
◼
►
interview halfway to give me any of this
◼
►
tour of the place and I think it was a
◼
►
total fight club situation where he was
◼
►
testing the guy you know like what are
◼
►
you going to do if i stop this job
◼
►
interview halfway through to give these
◼
►
other two people a tour of of the bar
◼
►
and none of us acknowledge you for 30
◼
►
it's a kind of an employment hazing yeah
◼
►
i think so let's see let's see if you're
◼
►
gonna make it here Johnny right that's
◼
►
but you know one of the things that hit
◼
►
me right and struck me right away on
◼
►
that even on that tour is that he really
◼
►
does have the most extraordinary
◼
►
selection of liquor I've ever seen in my
◼
►
entire life in terms of Bourbons and the
◼
►
stuff that i like it then and can judge
◼
►
that the quality of the collection I
◼
►
mean it's really is sort of a uh I don't
◼
►
know like a Stephen King type story
◼
►
where he's he's pulled some of this
◼
►
stuff from another universe you know
◼
►
like all sorts of stuff I've ever i've
◼
►
never even heard of over here for roses
◼
►
bourbon pretty good on ya ya i get
◼
►
confused because there's a there's a
◼
►
there's a bomb wine with roses and I no
◼
►
no there were differences you know for
◼
►
roses is pretty good and I think its
◼
►
general runnin around 30-35 dollars
◼
►
really good stuff and then there's
◼
►
somebody sent me a bottle of that once
◼
►
it was true yeah it's really good and
◼
►
then there's a four roses something
◼
►
something maybe I have four roses select
◼
►
or something like that which i have seen
◼
►
as well and I think it's maybe like ten
◼
►
he has four different for roses bourbon
◼
►
he's got four roses the four roses other
◼
►
thing that I've heard and he's got these
◼
►
other two that I like where do you get
◼
►
how do you even get that how do you how
◼
►
do you get that at right it just right
◼
►
down the line with all of you know all
◼
►
your favorite distillers he's just got a
◼
►
black maple hill which is really good
◼
►
stuff but then he's got black maple hill
◼
►
black label which died
◼
►
you can't get it I don't even know where
◼
►
did it's like he made it up it's like
◼
►
he's got this one bottle of black maple
◼
►
hill Black Label bourbon so I was super
◼
►
long story short a week or two later I
◼
►
get invited to a tasting at places and
◼
►
open yet and the way the tasting went is
◼
►
it was I don't know seven or eight of us
◼
►
and we don't get to pick anything he
◼
►
said here this is your first strength
◼
►
and we know and and you know you tell me
◼
►
what you think about what do you think
◼
►
it is and I can tell right away it was
◼
►
sort of like a screwdriver it was gonna
◼
►
definitely orange juice that I could
◼
►
only guess because of the lack of any
◼
►
other strong taste that it was vodka but
◼
►
there was like a frothy nasaan top i had
◼
►
no idea what he added and ends up nope
◼
►
it's just a screwdriver just a just
◼
►
fresh extracted is testing fresh
◼
►
extracted orange juice
◼
►
and an ultimate UL matv vodka but
◼
►
because it was fresh extracted juice it
◼
►
like had this frothiness to it that was
◼
►
amazing and then the next drink he gave
◼
►
me was the Henry box Brown which is
◼
►
fresh extracted red grape juice and
◼
►
eldorado 15 you're aged rum but here's
◼
►
the thing he gave me that drink and so
◼
►
what you know what do you do anything
◼
►
number one I loved it it was just
◼
►
unbelievable it's just unbelievable
◼
►
drink it's it's so refreshing but it's
◼
►
also clearly like a very very very busy
◼
►
drink but I had no idea what was in it
◼
►
I had no idea i couldn't tell it was
◼
►
grape juice I couldn't tell that it was
◼
►
wrong i was like guys that like I was
◼
►
and because I've never heard of that
◼
►
I've never in my life heard of anybody
◼
►
mixing grape juice and rum and in fact
◼
►
that's all there is in the drink you
◼
►
know you hear rum and you think stuff
◼
►
like you know you think tiki drinks hero
◼
►
pineapple i think i think it's like a
◼
►
headache like I can't drink a lot of rum
◼
►
well-run get I don't enjoy it like the
◼
►
way I enjoy purpose yeah well and rum
◼
►
I've done what I know I don't have I
◼
►
note that symbol full about room
◼
►
compared to want to know about bourbon
◼
►
but one of the problems with rum is that
◼
►
unlike a lot of other liquor around the
◼
►
world there's it's unregulated so like
◼
►
there's a lot you can't call something
◼
►
mean you can't just get together with
◼
►
some some stuff and make something call
◼
►
it bourbon burger champagne champagne
◼
►
exactly exactly like champagne it's very
◼
►
highly regulated you have to i think
◼
►
even it's so regulated you have to make
◼
►
bourbon and tennessee I don't think you
◼
►
can even call apartment didn't come out
◼
►
of Tennessee something i don't know but
◼
►
it's really ended on the percentage of
◼
►
of wheat vs corn it has to be in the

►
certain you know very narrow range you
◼
►
know it's like--there's like truly like
◼
►
a legal legal definition of the
◼
►
difference between bourbon and rye
◼
►
etcetera etcetera but there's no such
◼
►
regulations around rum you can make
◼
►
anything that you know anything and you
◼
►
can make a map bathtub around exactly
◼
►
and you can just call it from which is
◼
►
why drum tends to you know exactly why
◼
►
people associated with headaches so it
◼
►
could be there's a and Plus on my ass
◼
►
but it could be the kind of impurities
◼
►
and that have been introduced going to a
◼
►
place exactly i didn't anyone in generic
◼
►
drugs and I think you know us suffers
◼
►
similarly from from you know that the
◼
►
low-end stuff is truly the double now
◼
►
that I'm a tequila guy so notice the
◼
►
difference it's a huge difference and it
◼
►
just gives the whole it gives the whole
◼
►
liquor a bad name though right because
◼
►
you know a really good tequila is is no
◼
►
reason to be concerned about like you
◼
►
know but I'm like bourbon the difference
◼
►
between a medium good tequila and a bad
◼
►
oh yeah I mean it's really it's crazy
◼
►
like I get so I forget what i get i
◼
►
usually drunk getting it but the now
◼
►
I'll get like I get the I like a white
◼
►
you know I can make this thing they call
◼
►
the paleo cocktail this is the i don't
◼
►
ever made you drink one of these no I
◼
►
don't let it set on dude it's tequila
◼
►
lime juice and soda stream I don't know
◼
►
I've had one of those
◼
►
yeah oh I don't know your client had a
◼
►
name for it that well you know that's
◼
►
what they call it but it's it's the
◼
►
perfect drink it's it's so refreshing
◼
►
and you can make one about seven seconds
◼
►
which is nice but but you know the thing
◼
►
is I i use the Blanco right now and
◼
►
minify if I'm forgot to go to the bodega
◼
►
and get the jose cuervo gold it's like
◼
►
oh this is like you know Jimmy Buffett
◼
►
you like urinated and I've steel pot or
◼
►
something i don't i just don't care what
◼
►
your ratio what it would do what do you
◼
►
want your measurements are publicly or
◼
►
privately or publicly just put a little
◼
►
bit little bit of the cue on yeah well
◼
►
it's not what I do is I put it I put it
◼
►
in until I think that's just a little
◼
►
bit too much and that's what I know it's
◼
►
good so you don't and then I don't
◼
►
measure measure it now
◼
►
eyeballing you know my poli you make
◼
►
sure your tattoos measurement drinks I
◼
►
even measure my martinis
◼
►
I'm gonna tell my wife that i'm going to
◼
►
go out after our program your program
◼
►
and I'm gonna go get fucking fun we have
◼
►
a pretty good not too annoying wine and
◼
►
liquor store that I that has stuff like
◼
►
a bet they got this El Dorado you can
◼
►
make this at home in my name is a fool's
◼
►
errand I what you have a grape juice
◼
►
about the grape juices the heart yeah
◼
►
because he's got this fancy extractor
◼
►
behind there it sits down but Marco has
◼
►
you don't really like that many as I ps3
◼
►
and rights to that he doesn't like if
◼
►
Marco has a juice extractor he's got the
◼
►
one that that Lee has a top Singh it's
◼
►
like you know it looks like it works
◼
►
pretty fast in stainless steel channel
◼
►
and i found i fell to the world
◼
►
difficult to clean it looks like it's
◼
►
easy to clean so that if me and you were
◼
►
both bartending there and I'm making one
◼
►
with the grape and you're waiting for me
◼
►
because you've got to make a one with
◼
►
that oranges next that it's easy to
◼
►
you know it just looks like the the best
◼
►
juice extractor so I don't know but
◼
►
apparently people have said that you can
◼
►
just muddle the grapes in in a mixing
◼
►
thing I mean it's probably not quite as
◼
►
good but i'm sure you get pretty close
◼
►
to you know pretty close
◼
►
I'm going to measure this one that
◼
►
sounds fantastic ah but I like i said
◼
►
this thing ever i I've had some good rum
◼
►
drinks over the years you know that I've
◼
►
enjoyed it you know like at the disney
◼
►
Holly what's at the Polynesian then
◼
►
we're I'm sure you put still there the
◼
►
pollination still there yeah you know
◼
►
you're gonna make a run drink and pour
◼
►
it into a carved out pineapple or
◼
►
something like that but that's what I
◼
►
associate with rum drinks you don't
◼
►
ya know it's just crazy it's the
◼
►
craziest combination and it's it's just
◼
►
the best string it's it is you know me i
◼
►
do i love the Bourbon i love the
◼
►
martinis I'm telling you though if I
◼
►
found out on a desert island that the
◼
►
only booze I could have the rest of my
◼
►
life for Henry box Brown I'd be I'd be
◼
►
fine i might try well i think that you
◼
►
know of the numerous things I like to
◼
►
think that we have in common I think our
◼
►
liquor preferences are pretty close
◼
►
well and also scott simpson he just
◼
►
drinks a lot more well it's not it's not
◼
►
a problem he's got another configures
◼
►
the other thing i love about the Henry
◼
►
box Brown when telling people trying to
◼
►
explain my love of Hopsin is that you
◼
►
get in there and you're Luke you're
◼
►
going to be worried i know i was worried
◼
►
I was worried my life that I was setting
◼
►
myself up just like yeah you're right to
◼
►
be worried because like I'm on board i'm
◼
►
still on 42 pics square ice cubes
◼
►
I they're not you know what I think the
◼
►
I do not joke that this jokey sighs I
◼
►
sku no no they're you know they're big
◼
►
cubes but they're not one big cube but
◼
►
your but there are definitely red flags
◼
►
it if you went into these places and i'm
◼
►
not going to talk about a million times
◼
►
but like these places you go to in san
◼
►
francisco in la that are like the
◼
►
Haunted Mansion you know you go in and
◼
►
it's real silly and it like a Tom Waits
◼
►
song everybody super serious nono
◼
►
sulfones load you know or like how you
◼
►
have to like a type of request on the
◼
►
typewriter before we let you know
◼
►
okay I get it you know but this this
◼
►
sounds like a terrific place and the
◼
►
thing is the proof is in the pudding if
◼
►
you can get in there and get a drink and
◼
►
enjoy it then it's a good place right so
◼
►
stop saying i think is very reasonable
◼
►
cellphone rules you are allowed to use
◼
►
your phone but you are not let it make a
◼
►
this is for the enjoyment of your
◼
►
patrons surrounding you and you are not
◼
►
allowed to take photographs and this is
◼
►
for the privacy of all the people who
◼
►
no I think that's a reasonable rule that
◼
►
if you're in there too if you're in
◼
►
there you can you can rest assured that
◼
►
your photograph is not going to be taken
◼
►
so you can well this is probably better
◼
►
safer for a different program but if you
◼
►
can just capture this i think at some
◼
►
point you and I should take our big
◼
►
podcast money and come up with a place
◼
►
that will have yes be awesome drinks but
◼
►
a will have the most exhaustive and
◼
►
inscrutable set of rules in a place has
◼
►
ever had and it's extremely difficult to
◼
►
find maybe it's got three doors and
◼
►
sometimes they're locked but I think I
◼
►
don't get all your texts today but i
◼
►
think we could make a lot of dell in
◼
►
either of our cities by having a place
◼
►
that's extremely different difficult to
◼
►
understand maybe any which you might be
◼
►
thrown out at any point for reasons it
◼
►
would be a lot like like a mouse had a
◼
►
bar want to be stuff happening that you
◼
►
just would be very very hard to
◼
►
understand maybe it's open in both
◼
►
cities but it's technically an
◼
►
alternative technically one
◼
►
establishment so it's never over on the
◼
►
same day we found a loophole that allows
◼
►
us to have one liquor license for the
◼
►
entire place and maybe it shuts down
◼
►
maybe you get maybe you know you get two
◼
►
hours there i get two hours here we
◼
►
threw everybody out and there's a
◼
►
different password when you come it's
◼
►
the schedule is always different we
◼
►
think it's written man it just says I
◼
►
give you just show up on friday night at
◼
►
whatever Street in San Francisco it says
◼
►
we're sorry we're open to Philadelphia
◼
►
right maybe get to solve a Sudoku to get
◼
►
I don't know but I mean you want to keep
◼
►
it you want to keep it i think these uh
◼
►
look at people go to these places they
◼
►
really enjoy that level of theatricality
◼
►
else can ask you one more question and
◼
►
then I have a feeling of the answer if
◼
►
I was going to say no doubt i think he
◼
►
probably won't remember i may not
◼
►
remember no it's ringing about the eagle
◼
►
rare career is one of those ones where
◼
►
there are definitely click that they
◼
►
have an eagle rare gonna get this right
◼
►
i think their standard one I want to say
◼
►
is is 10 years and its really really
◼
►
good and then they have another 1i want
◼
►
to get this right for posterity there's
◼
►
another one that is more costly and
◼
►
longer aged and it's it's just one of
◼
►
the best things I've ever had in my life
◼
►
I bad and I don't know where I'm looking
◼
►
at the bottle now and now that i see
◼
►
there's only one of those ones that you
◼
►
want to probably just enjoy you know
◼
►
with a little little bit of rocks
◼
►
I mean it's it or or not it's really
◼
►
yeah i have not had do not have it in
◼
►
the house I've never purchase it but i
◼
►
know that i've had this somewhere can't
◼
►
remember where though one night we had
◼
►
to record you look nice today so I
◼
►
needed something to drink and I grabbed
◼
►
the first thing that we had at home had
◼
►
a bottle of which is the seagull rare
◼
►
that the fancy 117 I see this they have
◼
►
David end there's a standard and then
◼
►
they have a 17 when I would have seen
◼
►
that was a pretty hot
◼
►
see ya there's always another level
◼
►
right so you get deeper and deeper into
◼
►
that place over parts of the Caribbean
◼
►
or whatever you get fancier room but you
◼
►
know is a silly story but I I grabbed it
◼
►
and brought it to work I thought hey
◼
►
this is cool because it had been a gift
◼
►
that actually mean I had given to mad
◼
►
for like doing a little favor for her
◼
►
and she said only thing is i can get a
◼
►
bottle something I'm i crack it and
◼
►
brought it to work and started started
◼
►
making a variation on this is no this is
◼
►
blasphemy i know but i guess its bourbon
◼
►
right it's bourbon with some lime and I
◼
►
covered up with some muscle streams very
◼
►
similar to the to the tequila drink and
◼
►
I got about three quarters of the way
◼
►
into this and i happen to mention
◼
►
Simpson that I was drinking that he said
◼
►
he was drinking some to its own
◼
►
traditional that's fifty dollars but I
◼
►
was like I I was so embarrassed but
◼
►
luckily I was so intoxicated that it
◼
►
didn't stick with me so that I got
◼
►
another one to replace it for her
◼
►
because I'm a gentleman and then I drank
◼
►
that one too but if you can get that
◼
►
stuff you don't know if you wanna get a
◼
►
pop singer but if you don't have
◼
►
something something wrong with your lady
◼
►
after-hours it's it's it's real good now
◼
►
no why I'm familiar with its from its
◼
►
from the Buffalo Trace people
◼
►
ok number would remember we didn't
◼
►
newzealand to the mouth of the trickiest
◼
►
oh my god is that we ran the amount of
◼
►
liquor you know zealand they don't did
◼
►
you know they don't know what the Wi-Fi
◼
►
there they get they get like Hayes modem
◼
►
style Wi-Fi for four hundred dollars a
◼
►
day right you want to buy you want to
◼
►
buy a coffee it takes 35 minutes and
◼
►
costs one of the healing money is it in
◼
►
they do not have a lot of bourbon as we
◼
►
discover well it did that was
◼
►
embarrassed this story is that we never
◼
►
there for web stock 221 guys they work
◼
►
with the bartender's you ever used it so
◼
►
love you so we're at i forget the name
◼
►
of what's the name of the hook the hip
◼
►
hippopotamus identical to the
◼
►
hippocampus yet papa bottomless bar at
◼
►
the at the hotel where everybody who was
◼
►
a speaker web stock was and we were all
◼
►
there on the first day we're all deeply
◼
►
deeply jet lag because she notes it's
◼
►
like the you know couldn't be more
◼
►
jetlite is a 15-hour flight for I mean
◼
►
you had you had Philadelphia San
◼
►
Francisco and probably flew together but
◼
►
you have Philadelphia San Francisco and
◼
►
San Francisco and New Zealand how long
◼
►
was that it had to have been 20 hours
◼
►
yeah but we had like a weird I God for
◼
►
for like five hour layover you get a
◼
►
hotel and we got a hotel room and fell
◼
►
asleep for three hours which was the
◼
►
smartest thing that was like the best
◼
►
hundred and fifty bucks I ever spent was
◼
►
the hundred and fifty bucks to get a
◼
►
hotel room for two hours and 43 hours
◼
►
and and sleep a little bit between the
◼
►
well worth it but anyway we get there
◼
►
and and we get up to the hotel bar and
◼
►
it's afternoon it was I don't like 4-430
◼
►
and everybody's sort of meeting each
◼
►
other and find out that the hotel bar
◼
►
and like every month they had a special
◼
►
cocktail and this month's special
◼
►
cocktail was the Bourbon old-fashioned
◼
►
and we were like what how where the
◼
►
we've seemed to book the right hotel and
◼
►
like three days later this bartender who
◼
►
is awesome he had this real theater
◼
►
member the way he Houston would when he
◼
►
would take the key is almost like a cast
◼
►
member yeah i mean he was he was very
◼
►
energetic and very fun and in like not
◼
►
teasing but you know any remember he was
◼
►
just he was really can get
◼
►
age then it was fun to give him
◼
►
something like seventeen dollars per
◼
►
train ride was really it was a fun he
◼
►
wasn't costly it's pretty clueless happy
◼
►
and you know it was like a free I you
◼
►
know it's one of those things where
◼
►
their dollars or whatever they call the
◼
►
things are so close to ours but not
◼
►
quite that it it threw me off where you
◼
►
yes like 1.1 birds to a box right it
◼
►
would be like you know an $18 drink and
◼
►
I think one way to second with the
◼
►
conversion does that mean it really jump
◼
►
into 20 some dollars or does that mean
◼
►
I'm anything but i do that with time and
◼
►
money i calculate the opposite with that
◼
►
I you know and they had options that you
◼
►
can make it with this if you want to
◼
►
there's like a whole page like the in
◼
►
the cocktail menu one whole page was
◼
►
specifically for the old-fashioned and
◼
►
they had all these other options you
◼
►
could do but Houston had a real nice way
◼
►
of taking a grapefruit peel that was
◼
►
what he was putting him and then he
◼
►
would he would twist it and light a
◼
►
match and sort of a you know explode the
◼
►
understand what that is in a citrus than
◼
►
that is not a Ryan but the the run you
◼
►
know this list the twist thing yeah and
◼
►
somehow if you do it at the referee time
◼
►
it right when you squeeze it and light a
◼
►
match you can make it a flame bursts out
◼
►
and it's sort of you know put like a
◼
►
smoky hint to the rind is he as he
◼
►
garnishes your drink and anyway with
◼
►
into his it was a welcome very sorry but
◼
►
we're all out of Buffalo Trace bourbon
◼
►
and then I was like I will outtake and
◼
►
it is like well in fact we're all out of
◼
►
haha head and he was so apologize but
◼
►
this is like a read the thing is that
◼
►
you have to understand that this is you
◼
►
know this is a real bar
◼
►
this isn't like something that's been
◼
►
slapped onto a marian wright hot wings
◼
►
this is like I'm not a nice bar with a
◼
►
nice restaurant at night if you check up
◼
►
on the fourth floor had a real nice view
◼
►
I think it wasn't the kind of place that
◼
►
goes oh we forgot to order bourbon
◼
►
something it was bourbon modest-sized it
◼
►
was a seismic event in the Bourbon world
◼
►
of this pit was bourbon month and i
◼
►
believe that what we ended up doing
◼
►
I think that was the urban but i think
◼
►
they still had jack daniels and so we
◼
►
ended up letting to make this old
◼
►
fashioned out of jack daniel's which is
◼
►
you know at that poor form but and then
◼
►
he was very apologetic about it but it
◼
►
was amazing will try that eagle rare and
◼
►
I've already made a list you got me to
◼
►
do this stop here and I'm gonna I'm
◼
►
gonna get the the mayor are around from
◼
►
guy Jana called fifteen-year-old
◼
►
eldorado okay that sounds good and you
◼
►
want red grape something and red car
◼
►
anyway though it bottom line though is
◼
►
that here's the thing you think the
◼
►
place is really fussy and here's the
◼
►
thing Amy and I have this end there's a
◼
►
whole bunch of other places in town in
◼
►
philly that are like this i know i've
◼
►
been to the department and branch out in
◼
►
San Francisco and a lot of these
◼
►
cocktail page number one they dress the
◼
►
bartender's up old-timey stop they don't
◼
►
do that Hopsin everybody just wears a
◼
►
white shirt and black tie that's it
◼
►
there's no old-timey this to it you look
◼
►
it's more like a reservoir dogs look
◼
►
without the jacket every you know you
◼
►
look you know everybody looks the same
◼
►
you can tell who works here but you're
◼
►
there's no faking old-timey nobody has a
◼
►
mustache but here's the thing all the
◼
►
drinks a lot of these craft cocktail
◼
►
places are sound really really good
◼
►
until you get to the last thing and then
◼
►
it's like why would you put that a drink
◼
►
and then it's I think you're supposed to
◼
►
be like the fact that you can get it
◼
►
down makes you better than other people
◼
►
because there's you know you know a
◼
►
little bit of a extracted dog turd in
◼
►
there exactly like we know where we're
◼
►
know where no Albert when a soul brother
◼
►
when it comes to drinks but but but just
◼
►
from my you know semi-pro drinking I I
◼
►
it does strike me that sometimes it is a
◼
►
lot like a place that wants to be a
◼
►
fancy food place now this works you're
◼
►
in french laundry here on your senses
◼
►
yeah I go there every time for real no
◼
►
oh well French Laundry found it is
◼
►
stable at the corn is that the Thomas
◼
►
Thomas Keller price that's was like the
◼
►
best restaurant in America two years and
◼
►
around it's it's it's an event to go
◼
►
arguably maybe possibly you could argue
◼
►
the best restaurant or remember when
◼
►
jason and meg likes saved other change
◼
►
for a year to go there i mean it's
◼
►
really but it's really amazing and you
◼
►
go in there and its first bought this
◼
►
isn't even want to talk about itunes but
◼
►
it was a it is completely event dining
◼
►
and they do something that almost nobody
◼
►
else does well which is cute
◼
►
they do cute really well not cute you
◼
►
know too clever by half
◼
►
they pull it off here let me bring you
◼
►
these this p naught and gel II said
◼
►
which and it's all just like silly puns
◼
►
on something that but you know but the
◼
►
peanuts are made out of you know artists
◼
►
a lamb or something anyway and but it
◼
►
works but it strikes me that a lot of
◼
►
these places trying to do that
◼
►
especially in a tourist area they can
◼
►
make a fancy if they would you call it
◼
►
desiccated doctor like you had something
◼
►
to it that is like the wrong ingredient
◼
►
all that sounds fancy we've taken
◼
►
something really mundane like you know
◼
►
like a lamb shank got one of the worst
◼
►
lamb shanks I ever had was at

Disneyworld you get a lamb shank which
◼
►
is the most disappointing part of a lamb
◼
►
apart from maybe the horns and the song
◼
►
it's even like no like the butcher's
◼
►
trying to warn you with the word shank
◼
►
shank shank screams right let me know
◼
►
it's anyway I want the railing but you
◼
►
know I but i agree with you and if you
◼
►
in there are places this kind of soup
◼
►
nazi sorts of places where once you know
◼
►
how to go there it may become it becomes
◼
►
even like a point of pride like you can
◼
►
go there and you know that it's casual
◼
►
like you don't mean like now you're not
◼
►
going to be scrutinized as much because
◼
►
you're a regular right you know you know
◼
►
how it goes you know you're not gonna
◼
►
show up in teva's right well if the
◼
►
thing is is that to me and it goes with
◼
►
everything whether its food whether it's
◼
►
drinks whether it's picking a font or
◼
►
something like that sometimes the best
◼
►
thing to do is is not going to win you
◼
►
any accolades for being a genius or
◼
►
being clever but it's just the right
◼
►
thing to do and you should be humble
◼
►
enough to just do it sometimes so for
◼
►
example here's a drink where the right
◼
►
thing to do is just it's just grape
◼
►
juice and rum and it's shaken and it's
◼
►
cold and it's yeah good and that's it
◼
►
and there's no right this there's no you
◼
►
know an elderberry flower topped on it
◼
►
are you know what yeah it's like that
◼
►
that movie I didn't finish watching
◼
►
about the 10 dreams of sushi or whatever
◼
►
about the guy that makes the best sushi
◼
►
in the world or whatever and you know I
◼
►
thought it was it could have been on one
◼
►
in our documentary i think but it was
◼
►
still good still interesting because all
◼
►
this guy does douchey but what is the
◼
►
what he puts what he and his family and
◼
►
the people who work at this tense eat
◼
►
sushi bar put into it is astonishing
◼
►
I mean you know it but it is still he's
◼
►
I say he's buying the same tune that's
◼
►
not entirely accurate but everything he
◼
►
does is comes back to our old thing
◼
►
taste you know in class and
◼
►
decision-making and what you don't do
◼
►
and he has chosen to do this thing for
◼
►
whatever 50 years and he does it better
◼
►
than anybody and people pay three
◼
►
hundred dollars for a 15 minute meal at
◼
►
this place it's like a 10-course sushi
◼
►
meal in 15 minutes but everybody who
◼
►
goes there are people going over and
◼
►
over people from Japan who know sushi
◼
►
food critics they're like this is no
◼
►
other me like this in the world but it's
◼
►
he's just making sushi I could go here
◼
►
and insult and my neighborhoods obsolete
◼
►
scott simpson had Tony it's all Chinese
◼
►
people in my neighborhood that work at
◼
►
the at this issue place but it's some
◼
►
places are good some places are better
◼
►
and then first reasons you can explain
◼
►
sometimes as with the mythical man month
◼
►
sometimes it's just 10 times better and
◼
►
it's definitely true width font choices
◼
►
you get the same helvetica noid to 15
◼
►
people and you're gonna have extremely
◼
►
different results right you know it's
◼
►
it's just weird there's just a kind of
◼
►
like the going to a butcher shop where
◼
►
they know how to cut it up and choose
◼
►
it's it's a completely different
◼
►
experience and yeah shell which is a
◼
►
good way to get into itunes exactly i
◼
►
yeah tell me about something like some
◼
►
good spots right you know our first
◼
►
sponsor i am very happy to say once
◼
►
again is talks talks coffee you know the
◼
►
talks is this that the not forgive me
◼
►
and cut this out is this is the things
◼
►
you put in to keep your coffee hot is
◼
►
that right so i think that these are
◼
►
things we set up the pieces together to
◼
►
make a Death Star exactly what stop John
◼
►

◼
►

►

◼
►

◼
►
them they do it the right way they seal
◼
►

◼
►
the entire company is a hundred percent
◼
►
focused on helping a brew great coffee
◼
►
their website has all sorts of great
◼
►
advice on how to make coffee very very
◼
►
simple ways it just couldn't be better
◼
►
I'm couldn't be happier with its coffee
◼
►
is just delicious i'm drinking some
◼
►
couldn't be better Marco Arment I don't
◼
►
think he drinks anything else and he
◼
►
refuses to drink any other kind of
◼
►
coffee that says all you want to know
◼
►
about whether it's the best and or not
◼
►
and look at the look at the calendar

►
folks holidays are coming up
◼
►
here's the deal you know you don't want
◼
►
to send Hickory Farms you don't wanna
◼
►
send Hickory Farms you know what they're
◼
►
there is that aspect and I'm you know
◼
►
you know the the the Christmas vacation
◼
►
movie where he wants the big bonus check
◼
►
because he's going to put a pool in the
◼
►
backyard for the family and ends up what
◼
►
did you get the cake of the month club
◼
►
will get ahead but yet i forget
◼
►
everybody got they got the something of
◼
►
the month club instead I and there is I
◼

►
connotation designing somebody up for
◼
►
the bank of the month club thing as a

►
different because if you know someone

Wow itunes came out what you think of
◼
►
the new itunes 11 i like it i dont yeah
◼
►
you know yeah I know I I am i hesitating
◼
►
because I I unfortunately for you I'm a
◼
►
copious notes and prepping for the yeah
◼
►
I don't be a common stock I don't
◼
►
dislike it but it's I'm still you know
◼
►
it's been a day right we've had for a
◼
►
day and as as messed up in so many ways
◼
►
as itunes has been it's the devil you
◼
►
know and so now I'm other I'd like to
◼
►
hear you it's your show i like to hear
◼
►
you talk about it because you seem to
◼
►
like it a lot and i wanna as usual with
◼
►
new Apple things it seems like you are
◼
►
trying to run pretty stock settings and
◼
►
give the default state of state of that
◼
►
kind of a chance is that correct
◼
►
definitely in terms of like how things
◼
►
to display because i wasn't my first
◼
►
thing just was that I was very
◼
►
disorienting to me to open up I never
◼
►
look at things in either you know cover
◼
►
flow or album mode it's just not how I
◼
►
think about the stuff I've got it's nice
◼
►
to have but it was so hard for me to
◼
►
figure out what I had to change to to
◼
►
make it where I could find things but I
◼
►
got a couple thoughts on the boat tell
◼
►
me what you think I I you know I never
◼
►
used album view before either but i
◼
►
think i am now although i'd still think
◼
►
as the day is going on i do find know
◼
►
that that sometimes what I want
◼
►
and now i'm in the mood for the rolling
◼
►
stones i got a whole bunch of stones
◼
►
albums but it doesn't seem to know that
◼
►
like I got what I want then is to click
◼
►
go to artists and then there's a list
◼
►
artist click the Rolling Stone and then
◼
►
have the album view in there but it
◼
►
doesn't seem like you can get that you
◼
►
get like a like it's album but it's more
◼
►
like a listview by album rather than
◼
►
this new magic is just the album's click
◼
►
it and you get that nice expanded view
◼
►
underneath huh yeah so I'm not a hundred
◼
►
percent sure that the new stuff has been
◼
►
thoroughly baked conceptually yeah I
◼
►
mean there's one going to farm I listed
◼
►
the to start with this but yeah one of
◼
►
the things that I find little baffling
◼
►
in addition to how to get to what is
◼
►
called listview is he seemed to have
◼
►
what kind of one metal thing just a
◼
►
suggestion if you're listening to this
◼
►
and you can i would i would suggest
◼
►
opening up a copy of itunes 11 on your
◼
►
mac and maybe like turn down the slider
◼
►
on your volume really low if you want to
◼
►
play along with this because there's
◼
►
some things that are going to be easier
◼
►
to explain into you know what I mean
◼
►
like do this with me kind of stuff yeah
◼
►
it's i was like i said is a little
◼
►
bewildered when it came up in that album
◼
►
view because and that my first thought
◼
►
usually I just click over here in that
◼
►
little tabbed thing where you would say
◼
►
do I want to see this by which of these
◼
►
four methods and always pick the
◼
►
simplest list way probably because I'm a
◼
►
real weirdo i want two things that our
◼
►
frequently sort by his date added which
◼
►
I had trouble have had have had trouble
◼
►
getting the music tab to remember is
◼
►
that I want my default view to almost
◼
►
always be date added you know it seems
◼
►
weird but that's you know i don't i
◼
►
don't think this in the same way that I
◼
►
think of all typical library where I
◼
►
needed to be organized by dewey decimal
◼
►
you know or library of congress or
◼
►
alphabetical just cuz that's not how I
◼
►
think about the music and so anyway that
◼
►
that is so my first thought was are of
◼
►
course panic as with you know like you
◼
►
cover one time going you ended up being
◼
►
out when the changes golden scroll
◼
►
direction of course you know i mean they
◼
►
went in with a lion and made it the
◼
►
other way but now it totally i went back
◼
►
to the way it's supposed to be now and i
◼
►
love it makes sense it makes sense
◼
►
across devices so you know the typical
◼
►
thing its you're better off to go with
◼
►
apples way because that's the way Apple
◼
►
is going and so try their way and i
◼
►
liked it ok there's a lot of mystery
◼
►
meat navigation and buttons that I
◼
►
thought were kind of confusing but I
◼
►
there's one thing I still am confused by
◼
►
you to get about this like how do you
◼
►
get to column view column browser it's
◼
►
it's not clear to me like it will be a
◼
►
couple days probably like when I'm
◼
►
eligible to be in column view i guess
◼
►
probably really simple they click songs
◼
►
you click songs but this is other stuff
◼
►
for like sometimes it seems like it
◼
►
changes the way that it presents tufte
◼
►
based on like if you've done a obviously
◼
►
i think the search thing is pretty great
◼
►
when it shows you like what you hear
◼
►
your stuff live in the search but there
◼
►
are some things like the movies view was
◼
►
kind of bewildering to me
◼
►
uh I don't see I have enough time to say
◼
►
all this correctly but there were
◼
►
several things about it that I initially
◼
►
found confusing that I'm now figuring
◼
►
out and i'm in a way I almost wish i
◼
►
could reset it to how it shipped just
◼
►
just to try it again but yeah there's
◼
►
some stuff i really like about it a lot
◼
►
of things like I find really bewildering
◼
►
the number one thing now this might have
◼
►
been in there before i'm almost positive
◼
►
it wasn't because I would try it once a
◼
►
week and it didn't work did it open
◼
►
yeah hit command to command three and
◼
►
what's that doing i'm going to know what
◼
►
I'm doing here looking side rail over
◼
►
there you have sat on the side rail
◼
►
anymore house it jumps between music
◼
►
movies TV I guess I've wanted of which
◼
►
I've wanted forever i got that is easier
◼
►
than that and and that's may seem like a
◼
►
small thing but I so what I'm doing is
◼
►
when hit command 12 sort of like yeah it
◼
►
takes you to the section of your library
◼
►
for music movies TV shows which I
◼
►
actually found really useful mainly
◼
►
because I hop between music and podcasts
◼
►
a lot you know I movies and TV shows i
◼
►
I guess for somewhat obvious reasons i
◼
►
tend to watch on an iOS device for Apple
◼
►
TV but for the idea of stuff I'm jumping
◼
►
I mean my here's my real quick check on
◼
►
this is that i will probably be using
◼
►
search library a lot more is my first
◼
►
thought because i think it it's pretty
◼
►
good and is forgetting to the music i
◼
►
want fast i have not found a faster way
◼
►
to get there then search library and it
◼
►
it does i I think don't you think it
◼
►
works a lot better than it used to
◼
►
absolutely it's got its got a couple
◼
►
weird it's got like 10 bug that drives
◼
►
me a little bit nuts but it's it's very
◼
►
fast and it gets me where I where I want
◼
►
to be I also like the way that in the
◼
►
search results that it includes album
◼
►
art wherever it can yes so was i I do I
◼
►
had it it just works better for me it's
◼
►
like the way that like I like the way
◼
►
that Safari uses five icons right there
◼
►
in the URL bar because it's it helps me
◼
►
know like on certain websites you know
◼
►
oh I know where I am you know absolutely
◼
►
and I mean I think as a branding thing
◼
►
like I see that that's the guy i know
◼
►
that album so here it is
◼
►
what's weird about that is it seems like
◼
►
a feature like that would mean a lot
◼
►
more to people of our generation because
◼
►
we're more accustomed to flipping
◼
►
through associating yes that's our cds
◼
►
and oh yeah this is houses of the holy
◼
►
yeah like or whatever i bet there aren't
◼
►
that many people aren't as many people
◼
►
today especially because people download
◼
►
stuff and it may not have correct album
◼
►
art I mean I'm constantly saying find
◼
►
the album art and can't find it now I me
◼
►
too i do have to buy it and actually
◼
►
have a tip for that but I mean my kids
◼
►
wear something that's a little weird
◼
►
I'm gonna try something here first of
◼
►
all I car you big on keyboard navigation
◼
►
when you're typing text key like the
◼
►
command shift in the option shift and
◼
►
all that ya threw text you do that a lot
◼
►
yeah okay so hit command F and type Tom
◼
►
ok i'm just guessing stuff i think you
◼
►
have I don't have any time better
◼
►
ok for just forty forty three albums
◼
►
ok so go to go to select and the
◼
►
torpedoes you know i don't think i have
◼
►
damaged your penis I know we have
◼
►
whatever they're on their way over there
◼
►
on the CD rack and here's the here
◼
►
here's a real quick version of this that
◼
►
I don't this is so stupid but this is
◼
►
the kind of thing that drives me bananas
◼
►
go ahead and play any song starts
◼
►
playing any song any song anywhere
◼
►
alright we're going to do is we're gonna
◼
►
lie i turn my volume way down on my
◼
►
itunes alright alright you got you got
◼
►
song playing yeah okay and now go to
◼
►
church library and type in weiser ok ok
◼
►
and then act like you misspelled it and
◼
►
actually wanted to type something else
◼
►
now me I hit command shift arrow to
◼
►
select everything that I've just type
◼
►
that works for me it selects that
◼
►
ok do without the shifts just go to the
◼
►
beginning I what did that do next is the
◼
►
IC yeah without the shift it
◼
►
ok that's it then what it just did for
◼
►
me was it started that song that's
◼
►
playing again yeah because it's totally
◼
►
natural behavior in itunes to hit
◼
►
command left and right arrow the next
◼
►
previous track now that's probably
◼
►
expected behavior for most people
◼
►
because who uses that kind of nonsense
◼
►
but it is a weird thing like talking
◼
►
like some petty itunes to me has always
◼
►
felt like an app that works ok like an
◼
►
iCloud like iCloud like a lot of things
◼
►
they're pretty great things for a casual
◼
►
user to have a moderate amount of data
◼
►
in it's just that now especially with
◼
►
itunes match that I have so much stuff
◼
►
in here and I'm you know I find myself
◼
►
on the one hand like being appreciative
◼
►
of this looking prettier and stuff but
◼
►
right now it doesn't feel there's still
◼
►
stuff about that makes me feel like it's
◼
►
not that much faster for for power users
◼
►
and for people who want to become power
◼
►
users there's still a lot of opacity
◼
►
that i would like to see less opaque
◼
►
personally do you know what I mean
◼
►
oh yeah i think so are you on right now
◼
►
are you on a record I'm not be like pack
◼
►
up the plantation live
◼
►
ok and NIU that view where you get like
◼
►
the artist and you get like the kc like
◼
►
play shuffle arrow all those next to the
◼
►
name of the artist yes yes okay
◼
►
something else ever play okay got it
◼
►
what do you get nothing okay that's over
◼
►
the area on the right right
◼
►
nothing but i can click it I mean if i
◼
►
click it something you do most people do
◼
►
that do they claim be yeah I like you go
◼
►
to think that the the thing with the
◼
►
listview be like the LI view up in the
◼
►
which is as we all know now
◼
►
up next like mouse over that likewise
◼
►
they're not mouse over text for that he
◼
►
yeah I guess there could be some kind of
◼
►
you know like if you put you know like a
◼
►
webpage like if you pause for a little
◼
►
pause for a little hover something and
◼
►
now go now and there's no that's my
◼
►
complaint with that that that mysterious
◼
►
cloud icon next to the word with the
◼
►
top-left thing where you pick music
◼
►
movies TV shows what is that what is
◼
►
that for this is a horrible i think i
◼
►
think that means update my icloud yeah
◼
►
but it clicking it doesn't doing I match
◼
►
and hovering doesn't show anything yeah
◼
►
and right now mine is animated I've got
◼
►
these little diagonal i think that means
◼
►
it's updating and that means it's
◼
►
updating your collection yeah but I
◼
►
don't know but I so I understand that
◼
►
while it's updating why they would show
◼
►
me that but when it's not updating and
◼
►
it's just an empty cloud I really don't
◼
►
know why they show me that that there's
◼
►
a cloud there that I can't do anything
◼
►
with I can't click it I can't control
◼
►
click it well I need to be pedantic I'll
◼
►
say again just because it is standard in
◼
►
every other mac app and web page i mean
◼
►
do you ever go to preferences in it
◼
►
this isn't like in almost every mac app
◼
►
and I think there's a lot of people that
◼
►
don't know this so it's worth mentioning
◼
►
if you have somewhere where there are
◼
►
selections to be made like in
◼
►
preferences in almost every mac app and
◼
►
every good mac app if you have a choice
◼
►
between for radio buttons you can
◼
►
mouse-over a radiobutton whether it's
◼
►
selected or not and it will tell you
◼
►
what happens when you click that right
◼
►
which i think is kind of cool so to me
◼
►
if I mouse over the at that cloud like
◼
►
what what the hell does that mean if I
◼
►
mouse over that it should say for
◼
►
example in my case I the white cloud
◼
►
which a fluffy white cloud which I guess
◼
►
means everything's cold
◼
►
setec yeah but like no good last one on
◼
►
these i hope that go back to like the
◼
►
view of that plantation record right and
◼
►
click play the little arrow next to the
◼
►
got it oh ok then click play again
◼
►
all right Michael well shouldn't be
◼
►
pause yeah it doesn't pause yeah it's
◼
►
weird it doesn't turn to pause what
◼
►
happens instead is every time you hit
◼
►
play it just restarts the song which
◼
►
again maybe maybe that silly but in the
◼
►
way that this works i want this to be a
◼
►
UK they've chosen modality that's fine
◼
►
let's live with modality but to me
◼
►
modality means i should be able to do
◼
►
something like hit 14 music and if I tab
◼
►
one thing is I've got you know the
◼
►
universal access on so it goes to like
◼
►
frickin everything but I mean if you
◼
►
look at this if you never run this app
◼
►
before and you opened up I just feel
◼
►
like there's so much opacity to like
◼
►
what all this means like okay so I mouse
◼
►
over the name of the album and now i get
◼
►
an arrow next to it which gives me
◼
►
options but that it's almost like a play
◼
►
button don't talk about you if you go up
◼
►
to that little view dingus
◼
►
I mean that's cool i'll get used to that
◼
►
but i don't know i'm going to just bitch
◼
►
about there's a lot about it that i like
◼
►
better I wish these fonts for it's so
◼
►
well here's one that I i find
◼
►
interesting and i'm not quite sure I
◼
►
guess it's one of those things where I
◼
►
always come back to the analogy about
◼
►
you know the disney analogy that the guy
◼
►
on pirates of the caribbean the one
◼
►
pirate who's got a foot on the dock one
◼
►
foot on a boat a handful of a treasure
◼
►
chest and like 13 hats on his head and
◼
►
he's metering because it's you know how
◼
►
the hell you gonna get on a boat i'm
◼
►
going to get off the shore onto a boat
◼
►
that's on the water doing that that's
◼
►
like the hardest thing in the world is
◼
►
going from the old thing that was
◼
►
slightly gotta David Blaine thing to the
◼
►
new thing I and I feel like that's where
◼
►
itunes is a lot of mac stuff is for
◼
►
Apple is that they know they've got the
◼
►
new thing which is a lot simpler and
◼
►
doesn't have the the craft in the
◼
►
baggage and all this historical stuff
◼
►
which is ios and they got the old thing
◼
►
which is the mac which is really really
◼
►
and let you do all sorts of stuff you
◼
►
still can't do on iOS so how do they get
◼
►
from there to here and it's really
◼
►
really hard so here's a my perfect
◼
►
example of that one foot on the shore
◼
►
one foot on a boat that's already on the
◼
►
water and isn't even tied up is go to a
◼
►
song in this expanded view thing and you
◼
►
hover over the song title and you get
◼
►
that little right-pointing chevron you
◼
►
know I mean it's like so like if i go by
◼
►
so if i go back to my Tom Petty record
◼
►
I'm search by artist see even this view
◼
►
ok so I'm by artist and I Montana
◼
►
torpedoes like so next to refugee i
◼
►
click on the what looks like a closing
◼
►
yeah like it's like a greater than sign
◼
►
in a circle and when you do the same
◼
►
choices as what you got up in the thing
◼
►
at the next that right so it's a
◼
►
contextual menu right now
◼
►
yes like it's like it's like control
◼
►
clicking what happened mmm yeah but what
◼
►
happens if you control click on the song
◼
►
you get an entirely different menu
◼
►
oh come on right ctrl click on it I did
◼
►
write can't believe so when you control
◼
►
click on it you get a a regular
◼
►
max-style contextual menu it's you know
◼
►
you know it's right out of the system
◼
►
frameworks it's it's a regular system
◼
►
standard wide menu with sin lucida
◼
►
grande the system font if you go to one
◼
►
with a submenu the submenu as soon as
◼
►
you hover over it it pops off to the
◼
►
side right now look at the new one the
◼
►
one in that little Chevron then when you
◼
►
think that questions that's cool
◼
►
well but but does it open when you hover
◼
►
over it when you so tell me again so I'm
◼
►
control kicking no not control clicking
◼
►
don't control sorry go back to the one
◼
►
aegis regular click on the Chevron I
◼
►
don't know what you wanted right now if
◼
►
you go down there is one like genius
◼
►
suggestions add to the ones that have
◼
►
another menu off to the side it doesn't
◼
►
open when you hover over you have to
◼
►
click on my god really
◼
►
click on it and then it all colleges in
◼
►
ok alright i guess i could get used to
◼
►
that but that's that's really weird
◼
►
well it is really weird I and very
◼
►
different from the mac but i do think
◼
►
that for most people I i think it's a
◼
►
reasonable argument to be made that this
◼
►
is the way subject because it looks like
◼
►
iOS it works like is this is the way
◼
►
always should go for it and everybody
◼
►
knows all the usability studies show
◼
►
that that hierarchical menus you you
◼
►
lose easily ninety-five percent of all
◼
►
users as soon as you go to a menu and
◼
►
you go down and there's a little thing
◼
►
to the right and there's a nice menu
◼
►
piece is actually pretty well done and
◼
►
the plus sign next to it this is
◼
►
actually pretty cool that you have once
◼
►
you understand it right but it's
◼
►
absolutely it's not like a regular menu
◼
►
at all i can and you know i SAT there
◼
►
and hovered over it waiting for it to
◼
►
open a 10 seconds and then I thought
◼
►
well if i click well and then it slides
◼
►
into place and it's animated and its
◼
►
really nice and you can go back but it's
◼
►
totally unlike a standard mac contextual
◼
►
menu and the standard mac contextual
◼
►
menu is still there which offers an
◼
►
entirely different set of things you can
◼
►
do to the song and offers a lot more
◼
►
stuff although actually it doesn't
◼
►
they're not but they're not even
◼
►
separate though there's so you could do
◼
►
play next from both menus right yeah but
◼
►
you can't do you get album artwork from
◼
►
the new right everyone is very limited
◼
►
the other one the standard mac one has
◼
►
all sorts of complicated so all this the
◼
►
the nerdy stuff is still hidden in the
◼
►
control click one like create AAC
◼
►
version i recently think that's one of
◼
►
those you know I don't you probably have
◼
►
a name for this but one of the things
◼
►
like allowing you to do reverse
◼
►
scrolling you think this is one of those
◼
►
like a legacy thing for the nerds
◼
►
yes or just yeah because I don't think
◼
►
that they don't think they could get rid
◼
►
of that while they could get rid of it
◼
►
but i think that you know they obviously
◼
►
haven't haven't really gotten rid of
◼
►
anything in iTunes you can still do
◼
►
everything you can to be able to do you
◼
►
listen to you listen to that podcast
◼
►
right to what you don't listen to too
◼
►
many podcast right I don't
◼
►
well one of the things if you the
◼
►
feature I've always really liked it
◼
►
again I'm ready to be wrong about this
◼
►
but hit whatever command for orgo to
◼
►
podcast right this is another example of
◼
►
that more things I used to really love
◼
►
is like I would go like I this is
◼
►
something i subscribe to a while ago I
◼
►
don't unsubscribe but I also don't want
◼
►
to see that there's 35 episodes i
◼
►
haven't listened to write and used to be
◼
►
a control click to say mark always
◼
►
played or mark always unplayed right and
◼
►
now if you go to the title and you click
◼
►
on it you do you get the old you do get
◼
►
the old-school you know presumably the
◼
►
same you know I mean the old whatever
◼
►
you wanna call it the old school
◼
►
all your menu contextual menu but that's
◼
►
yeah mark all is rather it's not there I
◼
►
yeah but you know whatever that seems
◼
►
weird but I actually use that a lot in
◼
►
RSS readers i used a lot in if I've been
◼
►
away for from a high-volume site for for
◼
►
a few days I'll just frequency mark
◼
►
always read if if it's not anything to
◼
►
current that is that that's an unusual
◼
►
decision it's a better decision I mean I
◼
►
was driven crazy went to a site the
◼
►
other day of this artist is comic artist
◼
►
i liken it has you know the usual kind
◼
►
of old-school navigation where it's like
◼
►
they eat where these two call it you
◼
►
know when you get the drop-down menus so
◼
►
you click and they say like okay show me
◼
►
gallery and the gallery has four five
◼
►
selections LOL cool comic covers you
◼
►
click comic covers and when you click on
◼
►
covers it gives you different publishers
◼
►
ok click Marvel they want to get to
◼
►
marvel it's different like Siri
◼
►
marvel it's different like Siri
◼
►
this is like yeah none of those things
◼
►
are become content until you get to the
◼
►
very very end as it happened on this
◼
►
side and iOS even when you get to the
◼
►
end it didn't do anything i'm guessing
◼
►
it was kind of like wonky javascript or
◼
►
something but not that that's always
◼
►
been a totally flawed way to deal with
◼
►
that and I think you know when it can
◼
►
win the contextual menus come along on a
◼
►
OS 10 or on on now isn't it was sometime
◼
►
in America is not here right right but I
◼
►
mean it's you know not going maybe
◼
►
sometime I bet there was something
◼
►
somewhat grudging about that decision
◼
►
because yeah windows had already done
◼
►
right now that was a huge windows is
◼
►
right clicking right was something that
◼
►
people setting aside the one button to
◼
►
button thing whatever but not do people
◼
►
used to do that so often in Windows I
◼
►
think it's much more of the pattern of
◼
►
using windows at least in those days so
◼
►
definitely yeah so even then that might
◼
►
have felt like a satisfying satisficing
◼
►
but you know a not totally embrace
◼
►
decision to do that but you know it's
◼
►
it's never been fun like right now my
◼
►
services menu and yes i know there are
◼
►
things to clean this up but only two
◼
►
things like bread temperatures markdown
◼
►
stuff and a lot of other things I've
◼
►
added my on my services menus is crazy
◼
►
now or I should say my contextual menu
◼
►
in the finder and given that they can
◼
►
the width of the contextual menu is
◼
►
governed by the name of the longest item
◼
►
I its giant and it's got like 30 things
◼
►
in it seems like a menu looks like a
◼
►
window it it kind of does it looks like
◼
►
little men you like in a restaurant
◼
►
right but you know I think the one that
◼
►
I use just for this is actually I try to
◼
►
be helpful i think it's called services
◼
►
manager is the one that I use
◼
►
I never heard of services manager lets
◼
►
you go in and change without having to
◼
►
go to that awful thing in on the Apple
◼
►
yeah open up services manager you can go
◼
►
in and turn on turn services off very
◼
►
easily you can so if you leave it on you
◼
►
can set whether it appears in context
◼
►
menus and you can set the key commands
◼
►
all from here which you know the thing
◼
►
hit the truth is though any power user
◼
►
who's going to keyboard to do this it's
◼
►
I don't know about you but the fastest
◼
►
Mac I've ever been on i still get a
◼
►
beach ball waiting for services to to
◼
►
ok and then and then and then another
◼
►
nice thing here is that then you can say
◼
►
is a number of allowed items in context
◼
►
menu and you could say you want two
◼
►
three four five six seven ten unlimited
◼
►
so you can choose how many things so
◼
►
personally I think contextual menus are
◼
►
way under used by most people especially
◼
►
in the finder or for that matter and you
◼
►
know bbedit or text me there's so much
◼
►
stuff that you can do with those
◼
►
services your services fan right you
◼
►
pointed you point me to that that the
◼
►
services maker thing a few years ago we
◼
►
took a shell script and make it into a
◼
►
service service was called service
◼
►
forget what it's called
◼
►
I know it's by the guy named just
◼
►
breasts this service service that's
◼
►
right video and that's sort of semi
◼
►
obviated by automator as of like lion
◼
►
roar lion let your mouth
◼
►
yeah theoretically although i think this
◼
►
services ones are a little bit more
◼
►
first for somebody who knows anything
◼
►
about eunuchs which is not me the idea
◼
►
of input-output a filter is is pretty
◼
►
transparent right but anyway i'm getting
◼
►
off the topic but i don't know i mean i
◼
►
think i think i'm going to get get used
◼
►
to this but there's give me trouble with
◼
►
command LOL i feel good sometimes
◼
►
getting trouble with command l working
◼
►
or not working and I rely on that very
◼
►
heavily in what app sorry in itunes hit
◼
►
command l takes you currently playing
◼
►
song i didn't know that hole dude that's
◼
►
that's nice so you probably have another
◼
►
yeah I'll take one is driving me nuts do
◼
►
you ever open playlist in a new window
◼
►
like i'll say i want to make a new
◼
►
playlist for a road trip i'll create the
◼
►
new playlist and then created a new open
◼
►
in new window ever do that in itunes i
◼
►
have previously we'll go double click
◼
►
one of them now walk right doesn't go
◼
►
into new window and you don't get to
◼
►
solve officially a one window a pro yeah
◼
►
i like but here's a here's an
◼
►
interesting decision that they made
◼
►
which i think is a is new and am i i'm
◼
►
not sure i don't want to pass judgment
◼
►
either way on ax I'm not sure is the way
◼
►
that in the interest of showing fewer
◼
►
things on screen at once they don't show
◼
►
the sidebar unless you want to turn on
◼
►
the old fashioned mode but as soon as
◼
►
you start dragging a song your playlists
◼
►
open up from the south
◼
►
oh I'm gonna have to try this so just
◼
►
grab any song and start dragging it so I
◼
►
get stuck on the top side here signing
◼
►
up um I should multitask so I'm taking
◼
►
on taking a song from anywhere and I
◼
►
start dragging correct right and yeah
◼
►
we're looking to do on the right side
◼
►
doesn't a list of devices any playlist
◼
►
comes into it that isn't always there
◼
►
and only when you're dragging ass time
◼
►
you start dragging and you get a little
◼
►
list it slides in from the right of
◼
►
devices and playlist so you could add a
◼
►
song to a device or you can add a song
◼
►
I'm guess I'm in an album I mean music
◼
►
i'm looking at AC Newman's get guilty
◼
►
taking the chevron just no just drag the
◼
►
song drag-and-drop ok to write it like
◼
►
you're moving in somewhere and then off
◼
►
the side of the right side you don't get
◼
►
a you don't get a now maybe I'm in the
◼
►
wrong view them trapped by songs that
◼
►
works i'm inseong I was an album should
◼
►
be anywhere soon as you start dragging
◼
►
you get a a little thing from the side
◼
►
not kidding i wonder if i have something
◼
►
yeah I don't know how that's gonna take
◼
►
that sounds that sounds like a great
◼
►
idea so immediately gets that hey
◼
►
they're grabbing this because they want
◼
►
to put this someplace
◼
►
let me give them the option is what
◼
►
happened to it's very untraditional
◼
►
though that the destination is invisible
◼
►
until you start dragging and as soon as
◼
►
you're done dragging it goes away
◼
►
because you have to know you do anyway
◼
►
you would you have to know it before you
◼
►
that's kind of what I was trying to get
◼
►
out with I wasn't trying to be a dick
◼
►
about it that's kinda was trying to get
◼
►
out with the opacity about those icons
◼
►
in my experience and my very small bit
◼
►
of user experience stuff people are not
◼
►
too excited about cooking something
◼
►
unless they know what's going to happen
◼
►
that goes back to the days of wondering
◼
►
if you're going to reformat your hard
◼
►
drive that sounds silly to nerds but
◼
►
there are a lot of people who will not
◼
►
just click I mean look at how many
◼
►
things in this interface have an arrow
◼
►
to be honest look that's one way to look
◼
►
at it if you go back to album view and
◼
►
go look at Tom Petty record i mean there
◼
►
are so many arrows there's an arrow
◼
►
right for iCloud there's a chevron just
◼
►
wasn't the right word like a black
◼
►
chevron whatever chevron but like
◼
►
there's a bracket to show next room for
◼
►
this contextual menu one for each song
◼
►
when you mouse over there is a
◼
►
contextual menu one for the app there's
◼
►
to intermingle and arrows meaning
◼
►
shuffle there is a narrow a you know a
◼
►
sideways triangle foreplay and then much
◼
►
of those things are repeated in the
◼
►
thing at the top there's anything of
◼
►
course is the big arrows for play rewind
◼
►
etc and in almost every piece of
◼
►
interface and this is some kind of a
◼
►
narrow and and that to me I would you
◼
►
know even I've used this stuff for a
◼
►
while and i still look at that and go
◼
►
what I know shuffle means you know what
◼
►
hey do you have the sidebar showing yes
◼
►
alright turn off the huts hide the
◼
►
sidebar right sidebar now now drag us on
◼
►
ok that must be a let's see and now i
◼
►
want to go to I clicking clicking oh
◼
►
that's neat right so it doesn't happen
◼
►
if you have the sidebar showing because
◼
►
you don't need it but right but if you
◼
►
hide the sidebar which is the default
◼
►
view when you drag a song this right
◼
►
side sidebar of destinations where you
◼
►
might want to drop a song devices and
◼
►
playlists appears adding it to a device
◼
►
that is really interesting i'm on my
◼
►
non-primary itunes so I do my secret
◼
►
through my air and so I'm on my ancient
◼
►
mac pro right now and if I think it's
◼
►
grab the device probably won't work but
◼
►
this is pretty sweet right well anyway
◼
►
that you can pick a movie or show to
◼
►
load up on your iPad before you head off
◼
►
to visit doing that locally or is it
◼
►
saying go be wise and get this from the
◼
►
cloud I i think it's if it's by USB it
◼
►
will copy by USB and if you have the
◼
►
device setup to sink over Wi-Fi it'll
◼
►
push it over white I've got it i'm gonna
◼
►
just do it by iCloud though it will do
◼
►
it over your local wife
◼
►
what do I mean like two things two great
◼
►
things that have been there forever that
◼
►
are still worth telling people about our
◼
►
the ad to so like or see now this is
◼
►
so if you use the new non contextual
◼
►
clicking chevron next to a song you get
◼
►
add to click add to and you can add it
◼
►
to a playlist right that's I think
◼
►
that's a great feature but no but now do
◼
►
the contextual menu version of that and
◼
►
get something even cooler which is shown
◼
►
playlist ever use that
◼
►
now i use that is that all the time so
◼
►
let's say if you're like me and you got
◼
►
a million playlist right do this you
◼
►
might want to say oh I want this in that
◼
►
party 1999 shuffle show me in there are
◼
►
right in that context or something I
◼
►
used to love in back on the creative for
◼
►
that is a good future
◼
►
yeah it's something you back on the I
◼
►
think I'm the creative or maybe on the
◼
►
diamond rio player was in a shop in the
◼
►
middle of a shuffle there was a dingus
◼
►
for saying continue playing along lines
◼
►
of net play this by clicking whatever
◼
►
it's called it functionally started
◼
►
playing it as the track it was on the
◼
►
so if you if your rocks off came up you
◼
►
could say continue playing album and
◼
►
then it would play the rest of Exile on
◼
►
ah that's a great feature it's exactly
◼
►
certain songs were when i hear them then
◼
►
I didn't immediately want to hear that
◼
►
usually happens to me with Zeppelin
◼
►
songs as soon as I hear one I need to
◼
►
hear the one that I know it's checking
◼
►
it was like what I do that case for what
◼
►
it's worth it's a command l to show me
◼
►
the playing track and then i'll say then
◼
►
I'll do that right click to show in that
◼
►
album so i can show you just in the
◼
►
straight-up legitimate album or you can
◼
►
hit the course the revealing arrow to
◼
►
take you to that album one more thing
◼
►
that's been happening forever 19 that
◼
►
drives me nuts you know what you can
◼
►
going to flick i don't know if i did
◼
►
this with onyx or whether I did it
◼
►
legitimately but I don't you know you
◼
►
can change the arrow to mean
◼
►
itunes store or yeah so I had it set to
◼
►
show to me the collection was the
◼
►
weirdest thing like yesterday I was like
◼
►
I want to go the danger mouse record i
◼
►
click the arrow and it took me to
◼
►
everything by danger mouse even though i
◼
►
click on the album right i was kinda
◼
►
weird but you know i mean this is this
◼
►
is the thing I mean yeah it was sort of
◼
►
like it there was like a hidden
◼
►
preference that was more or less like
◼
►
stop trying to upsell me what ya used to
◼
►
be i guess a plist thing that aren't
◼
►
like on one of the Sonics or you know
◼
►
yeah those apps what do you use for
◼
►
stuff like that I i usually honestly I
◼
►
used like the terminal and i just type
◼
►
the default right come out interesting
◼
►
ok but you don't go in and do stuff like
◼
►
hi desktop or not anymore now change the
◼
►
font size in my finder now sidebar know
◼
►
about catcher pussy now I was getting a
◼
►
mother giving out for you get for you've
◼
►
but you know it's interesting I mean
◼
►
that the the big trend everybody out you
◼
►
and all your buddies always talk about
◼
►
that is actually turning out to be
◼
►
pretty interesting is V nokia is this
◼
►
move toward being more iOS like which i
◼
►
think is entirely sensible you know in a
◼
►
lot of ways I think for file management
◼
►
it's it's an almost utter failure but
◼
►
for stuff like this I get why they do it
◼
►
it's a shame that itunes on my ipad is
◼
►
one of the worst apps i have ever used
◼
►
to my aunt but if they can improve the
◼
►
desktop version by taking some of those
◼
►
patterns i'm all for it
◼
►
well I think you want once you get the
◼
►
iCloud thing it's really clear i'm
◼
►
looking at you know what am I looking at
◼
►
obvious definitive collection because
◼
►
that's what I'm looking at all the gold
◼
►
honestly too i got that too with new
◼
►
album art boom yeah no yeah let's see
◼
►
here because I'm dancing queen going
◼
►
yeah it's great it's such a good record
◼
►
oh man i was into that every day I got
◼
►
yeah we've got gold and the definitive
◼
►
collection used to be the only thing
◼
►
only help her daughter go to sleep play
◼
►
oh no wait no that's the year the album
◼
►
came out i did a screen grab bars the
◼
►
other day and it was like Everlong this
◼
►
look like one of my eyes and Everlong
◼
►
idle no we don't gotta have a couple of
◼
►
Springsteen songs at the top
◼
►
yeah you know I reset a while back to
◼
►
you with Amy did Thunder it was way high
◼
►
but it but you know having a kid screws
◼
►
it up because now we've got i love they
◼
►
might be giants but yeah like I don't
◼
►
listen to favor island quite as much as
◼
►
ours is still it's permanent until one
◼
►
of us like are both of us I guess lose
◼
►
our eventually lose our itunes history
◼
►
but ours is yellow submarine because oh
◼
►
that's right that we should go to that
◼
►
was our go-to that it when Jonas was a
◼
►
you know the cry baby infant worse i was
◼
►
like that was like the red line that was
◼
►
the red button underneath the protective
◼
►
glass cover the last resort if this
◼
►
doesn't work we don't know what we may
◼
►
have to drop everything and he sir right
◼
►
we yeah we both had to turn the key
◼
►
we both had to agree let's go to yellow
◼
►
never let us down I remember we talked
◼
►
about on the other talk summer I was
◼
►
walking around New Zealand and you were
◼
►
talking about that I remember that for
◼
►
us not you know i got my kid into Queen
◼
►
tomato that's good but the thing with it
◼
►
here's the thing about the Yellow
◼
►
Submarine thing that made the playground
◼
►
so high is that you once you went to
◼
►
yellow submarine you had to replay they
◼
►
had to keep going you had to keep going
◼
►
till he went to sleep he stopped crying
◼
►
he would smile he would get a check for
◼
►
you to follow through how to keep going
◼
►
just yellow submarine over and over and
◼
►
over but i gotta play count on that song
◼
►
is just but it's right now I we had the
◼
►
way to similar for a long time for us it
◼
►
was drier sound and it was like I'd like
◼
►
14,000 plays or whatever because we were
◼
►
just we had we had 1i got a little tiny
◼
►
1i thought maybe it had a hair dryer
◼
►
well-known 40 it was a 45-minute minute
◼
►
track of a hairdryer here's what you do
◼
►
when you're when you're real stupid and
◼
►
had a little too much money at the time
◼
►
I i had one ipod mini there was nothing
◼
►
but the dryer sound everywhere we went I
◼
►
could plug it in and hit play and they
◼
►
would just be for those of you who don't
◼
►
know that the the kids like there are
◼
►
certain like white boys and white noise
◼
►
some of them don't like running water
◼
►
right but you don't your kid might have
◼
►
a hot you know it and one Jonas's was a
◼
►
hairdryer and there you can go and you
◼
►
can quick Google these things and you
◼
►
can just download like the sound of a
◼
►
hairdryer I remember it used to always
◼
►
make me think you're obviously
◼
►
completely irrationally that playing the
◼
►
hairdryer sound was wasting so much
◼
►
energy haha and I don't talk about skill
◼
►
more its I and I would not enter a every
◼
►
time we went to it i would think god
◼
►
it's alright it shut him up this is
◼
►
god I can't believe how much money we're
◼
►
going to spend on and then I think oh no
◼
►
of course not but it every single time
◼
►
it would make me think we were we were
◼
►
blowing a bunch of money but screw it
◼
►
it's worth it's worth it can't believe
◼
►
you had hop oh that's something that
◼
►
we're at so creepy you know here's the
◼
►
thing here's the thing that I see is the
◼
►
big-scale big picture trend that iOS is
◼
►
leading is is it is about contextual
◼
►
pneus and it's about visual
◼
►
obvious and so the reason that
◼
►
contextual menus worked in Windows is
◼
►
that it does make a lot of sense where
◼
►
what you swim in a certain way where
◼
►
you're saying look I've got this thing
◼
►
here it is a file or it's a short yeah i
◼
►
mean there are so many things I could do
◼
►
to a file right right and so I mean it
◼
►
from the desktop session right and
◼
►
before contextual menus it would be like
◼
►
well you had this one gesture that Apple
◼
►
popularized drag-and-drop but you only
◼
►
got one thing out of that it was you
◼
►
know typically you drag it over and it
◼
►
would open you know you would drag this
◼
►
thing to a file or to an application and
◼
►
it would open and I know that there are
◼
►
certain gestures like a mac i don't i
◼
►
can't speak in windows and there were
◼
►
ways to modify drag-and-drop with
◼
►
modifier keys where you drag and drop
◼
►
something with the option key down in
◼
►
the finder you're making a copy and
◼
►
expect a copy and alias so if you have
◼
►
the service you can do have symbolic
◼
►
link number i mean but that's way out in
◼
►
the weeds and very few users are ever
◼
►
going to know about any of those
◼
►
shortcuts because they're not visual you
◼
►
have to know about them
◼
►
absolutely there's you know there's a
◼
►
little visual cue when you hold the
◼
►
option key down drag something where it
◼
►
adds a plus sign to sort of at least
◼
►
give you a little bit of a visual hint
◼
►
that maybe you know that you're making a
◼
►
copy or adding but you know I mean show
◼
►
that to most people and they're not
◼
►
going to have any idea what the plus
◼
►
sign means and they're never going to
◼
►
guess that holding the option anything
◼
►
that involves modifier keeses is not
◼
►
going to it just goes right over even
◼
►
smart people said because it's not you
◼
►
have to know it before you ever use and
◼
►
you have to remember it and that's
◼
►
that's a good and you know it's let me
◼
►
think about you go to somebody's house
◼
►
and you want like you're house-sitting
◼
►
you want to find the scissors
◼
►
yeah like there's nothing that would
◼
►
tell you where the scissors are until
◼
►
you open a bunch of drawers and try
◼
►
yeah exactly that's extensive really
◼
►
here's another one and in itunes 11 the
◼
►
new mini player thing is a new button up
◼
►
in the up in the title bar that toggles
◼
►
between these two states for all
◼
►
previous ten versions what they did is
◼
►
override the green button the
◼
►
and instead of zooming the window it
◼
►
would toggle between the two states but
◼
►
most people don't know is if you option
◼
►
click the plus button it would give you
◼
►
the traditional green button behavior
◼
►
and I really i never knew that
◼
►
yes you do my tweeted that yesterday and
◼
►
I got it like a gazillion like holy cow
◼
►
i didn't know that never-ending million
◼
►
years to do that and why did you not
◼
►
teach me the head before the version of
◼
►
itunes came out that that it doesn't
◼
►
matter anymore it's just one of those
◼
►
things if you're a loser you know if you
◼
►
think Mackey enough you think like well
◼
►
if they / read that wouldn't they maybe
◼
►
give you an escape hatch with a modifier
◼
►
key but modifier keys to did like you
◼
►
said you haven't you just said you
◼
►
didn't even know that existed
◼
►
well modifier Keys not a good solution
◼
►
to the problem so windows contextual
◼
►
menus solved that problem in a certain
◼
►
sense of give me a way to do
◼
►
here's the thing i have it in front of
◼
►
me let me give me a whole bunch of list
◼
►
of things I can do to this thing right
◼
►
now mom but in another sense it wasn't
◼
►
still wasn't visual though because you
◼
►
had to know the difference between right
◼
►
clicking and left clicking which I you
◼
►
know it's like one of the most like
◼
►
divisive arguments in the history of
◼
►
user interface design
◼
►
yeah what is one is let's do something
◼
►
and the other one is let's find out what
◼
►
we could do right and on my argument
◼
►
against it then that Apple was right
◼
►
with the one button mouse for all these
◼
►
years is that whenever i worked in an
◼
►
office environment you can go and you
◼
►
look at everybody's mouse if they had
◼
►
pcs and the left mouse button was filthy
◼
►
and the right mouse button or actually
◼
►
it was the other way around where the
◼
►
left one was well Leslie when that might
◼
►
be dirty but it had a finger-sized shiny
◼
►
yeah like shiny and the right one was
◼
►
just too just covered with dust and that
◼
►
people learned that that's the one you
◼
►
don't click that kind of shows you how
◼
►
Apple really did win right that normal
◼
►
people still never use that those things
◼
►
they you know it was opposed it is a
◼
►
great power user future and that's why
◼
►
Apple eventually and I do think you're
◼
►
right that that when Apple added
◼
►
contextual menus with the control click
◼
►
that it was sort of begrudging
◼
►
but it's definitely a power user feature
◼
►
because it's not visual and that's why
◼
►
you see things i think in itunes now
◼
►
with this thing where they've got this
◼
►
secondary in a way it is totally
◼
►
ungraceful an inelegant that there are
◼
►
two entirely different contextual menus
◼
►
for let's say a song or album there's
◼
►
the old one that you get with ctrl click
◼
►
or right click whatever you want to call
◼
►
it and this new one where you just
◼
►
regular click on the Chevron button and
◼
►
that it's too you know entirely
◼
►
different list of things and one's a lot
◼
►
simpler ones a little bit more fiddly
◼
►
very elegant but it is to me though the
◼
►
new way where it's visual and you can at
◼
►
least see how to make come up
◼
►
well I i totally agree but I mean I had
◼
►
to be even even kinder I think and I
◼
►
think fairly so if you think about iOS
◼
►
one of the one of the things that Apple
◼
►
i think has gotten so right with iOS
◼
►
that others i don't know i can't say if
◼
►
others have I haven't spent much time on
◼
►
anything but an ipad or iphone but you
◼
►
know is that what i understand that
◼
►
there are a limited number of things
◼
►
that I can do here and and that there
◼
►
should be a limited number of things
◼
►
that i present the people here otherwise
◼
►
it's going to be completely overwhelming
◼
►
and so I don't know that this close
◼
►
chevron or whatever you call it go to
◼
►
the next level of stuff
◼
►
the only way you can really do stuff on
◼
►
some ass a little but you can either i'm
◼
►
not never can I can't tell you what the
◼
►
name of the views are but you could
◼
►
certainly have a kind of view where you
◼
►
get a list of stuff and then you can
◼
►
select things and do things to those but
◼
►
more often than not you're clicking that
◼
►
right disclosed button to to drill down
◼
►
into where you can do different sorts of
◼
►
well now why is it so special and
◼
►
different because there's not really
◼
►
menus in the traditional sense on on
◼
►
your on your iOS device you can you
◼
►
don't have a like in this case
◼
►
highlighted view control store and
◼
►
window that might present be presented
◼
►
in some kind of tab way but that's
◼
►
usually like the last thing I would want
◼
►
to do and there are certainly far edge
◼
►
cases I refuse goodreader good reader so
◼
►
nerdy but so fine you can go in and look
◼
►
at your files on dropbox and you can go
◼
►
comments section click the file and say
◼
►
wow there's like 40 options it's so like
◼
►
you know like an engineer made it right
◼
►
you can open in you can zip this you can
◼
►
move this you can do all that stuff it
◼
►
gets to the point that's saying like
◼
►
only a power user would want that
◼
►
because most people don't know of or
◼
►
need most of those things and for better
◼
►
for worse the iOS is accommodating those
◼
►
limits limitations in the design
◼
►
principles so I mean I the the thing is
◼
►
I guess what I'm trying to get at is
◼
►
that in seeing these changes reflected
◼
►
in these design decisions reflected back
◼
►
I wonder for a new person you just come
◼
►
in here and go I understand their stuff
◼
►
and the stuff is in different areas and
◼
►
once I get there and I get to the actual
◼
►
stuff there's almost always something I
◼
►
can do to it and if i get used to the
◼
►
idea that clicking on that chevron
◼
►
always means it can do things then
◼
►
that's great my god is that most power
◼
►
users are never going to click on those
◼
►
things are going to see that arrow I
◼
►
like you you're pretty good with
◼
►
computers and you didn't know about
◼
►
doing and playlists which tells me you
◼
►
did not spend a lot of time left
◼
►
clicking and or you know i just got this
◼
►
backwards because i use this track pad
◼
►
and a you know caps lock is why i still
◼
►
call it control-click yeah control
◼
►
clicking for his caps caps lock clicking
◼
►
but but you know you feel you know what
◼
►
I'm saying like for most people I think
◼
►
that the day into the danger not the
◼
►
danger think it's a little confusing
◼
►
about this is yes it's a new design we
◼
►
always we should always be open to a new
◼
►
design being better because this is a
◼
►
this is a group of companies that by and
◼
►
large we trust to make interesting and
◼
►
in good design decisions but there's a
◼
►
lot about it that that yes there's
◼
►
opposite like I'm just right now there's
◼
►
a lot of stuff you don't see until your
◼
►
mouse over it and then when you do mouse
◼
►
over it you're like what like I mouse
◼
►
over a song i now have exactly the same
◼
►
chevron for a song as I do for the album
◼
►
so what does that mean well just click
◼
►
I've also got these for tiny little dots
◼
►
what is that well I know that's for I
◼
►
want to rate this right but I don't know
◼
►
very good is going to know that the
◼
►
truth is that i don't think most people
◼
►
are going to use any of that really
◼
►
generate your songs to write your songs
◼
►
i used to i would I wish we had another
◼
►
two hours because i have so much great
◼
►
itunes tip stuff to share but I I'm not
◼
►
big on metadata and i use the play
◼
►
john sarkissian over here is this I I
◼
►
rely heavily on the implicit metadata of
◼
►
what exists in the songs and what is
◼
►
learned from my behavior so i would much
◼
►
I would watch for these skip count yeah
◼
►
and number of plays to make a playlist
◼
►
and i would buy is this two-and-a-half
◼
►
to four-and-a-half stars
◼
►
yeah exactly i wanted to show me you
◼
►
know you know it's just like good user
◼
►
testing right it's like yeah you should
◼
►
tell us the symptoms of how you use this
◼
►
but we're more interested in the signs
◼
►
with your behavior shows i almost trust
◼
►
itunes to start my songs more than
◼
►
myself and there are a few there's
◼
►
obviously you know it's like like raging
◼
►
bowl that grading bowl is a obviously
◼
►
one of the greatest movies ever made one
◼
►
of my favorites but you just can't watch
◼
►
it's just too much right it takes a lot
◼
►
out of me to watch Raging Bull so my
◼
►
play count on raging bowl as a movie is
◼
►
going to be a lot lower than the Stars I
◼
►
would assign to it because I just can't
◼
►
it's i love i love and godspeed you
◼
►
black emperor with it which is this a
◼
►
band from Canada that makes these
◼
►
orchestral atmospheric ever seen at 28
◼
►
yes remember when the guy wakes up and
◼
►
he starts walking through the streets
◼
►
and you hear that like that very
◼
►
memorable cello like yeah that's
◼
►
godspeed you black emperor that's that's
◼
►
five star music that i do not want to
◼
►
hear 16 minutes at a time so skip count
◼
►
on that is kinda high but you can hack
◼
►
this right easily by and I don't derail
◼
►
this because it but i do have a lot of
◼
►
on this is like the way that I do
◼
►
playlist i think is pretty smart i do it
◼
►
very heavily upon like building the bit
◼
►
i have a whole bunch of I cloud-related

►
smart playlists that I'd love to share
◼
►
with people because i think they could
◼
►
but then I do a very heavily based upon
◼
►
the number of times that the ratings I
◼
►
mean what a ratings you have time to sit
◼
►
and write everything and what is that
◼
►
reading mean it'sit's not that much
◼
►
better than what you get on the itunes
◼
►
store what's good for what the gene i
◼
►
can tell you the genius break for you
◼
►
after iTunes Match initially when i
◼
►
first got on itunes magic is stopped
◼
►
working on my on my mac i guess it was
◼
►
there was enough on the computer for it
◼
►
yeah I don't know it gets like you for a
◼
►
definitely definitely started working
◼
►
even in 10 i guess what's the last
◼
►
itunes at work this did start working
◼
►
again it was a revelation
◼
►
I don't know how the hell it does it
◼
►
that it's crazy all we've learned from
◼
►
collaborative filtering it works pretty
◼
►
great and I'll tell you the genius
◼
►
playlists are frequently way better than
◼
►
anything i would have come up with on my
◼
►
yeah i agree with that and but I'd but I
◼
►
also think that's exactly why I think I
◼
►
trust itunes to write my songs for me I
◼
►
well you know just as a and then let me
◼
►
you know I'll tell you what's a
◼
►
super-duper rathole that still drives me
◼
►
why doesn't it doesn't I RS know which
◼
►
apps that use the most
◼
►
why is there not an automatic Smart
◼
►
Folder for the apps that I use the most
◼
►
don't you think there should be a full
◼
►
Smart Folder I know this doesn't exist
◼
►
but shouldn't be a smart folder
◼
►
automatically populated in your dock
◼
►
with the five apps you use the most
◼
►
I'm sorry nine apps you use the most I
◼
►
definitely think so i think i think i
◼
►
don't think that the the visual
◼
►
presentation of as they call it spring
◼
►
board is at anyway problematic i know a
◼
►
lot of nerds want to put widgets and
◼
►
have also expensive i think my nandroid
◼
►
I think this idea that the the baseline
◼
►
of the iOS universe is a desktop you get
◼
►
to pick the background and it's just an
◼
►
organized list of your apps is the right
◼
►
concept i think the problem with
◼
►
springboard is the lack of organization
◼
►
features you know like moving apps
◼
►
around in that thing is makes me feel
◼
►
like I've got a job and that the line if
◼
►
you've done it right and like in my case
◼
►
i I'm sorry to say that i have more apps
◼
►
that can be shown right on
◼
►
and so what i do i start i joked about
◼
►
this not long ago i'll go to a page with
◼
►
a bunch of crap so I don't use it takes
◼
►
so long to delete at least when you do
◼
►
it through itunes when you connect the
◼
►
device and I guess you can select more
◼
►
than one at a time and move more than
◼
►
it's not two clicks it's not all those
◼
►
extra clicks and that but what i'll do
◼
►
is i'll create a drop on top of the
◼
►
other and say do you want to create the
◼
►
folder called productivity I no no it's
◼
►
called board 37 and so I just dropped
◼
►
chop and I guess nine apps or whatever
◼
►
it'll take right but I mean that that is
◼
►
it becomes so time-consuming and then
◼
►
what's crazy making is if there is an
◼
►
app in there that i use once a year and
◼
►
I do the search you know the go left and
◼
►
I wish you could say show in folder or
◼
►
show on page and you know what yeah I
◼
►
know exactly I know exactly what you
◼
►
mean no because I am organized and I
◼
►
have organized everything into folders
◼
►
well then the folders lose their
◼
►
taxonomical significance if I don't have
◼
►
it's its siblings know is I'd the thing
◼
►
you just described run into all the time
◼
►
where there's a certain app i realized i
◼
►
want to use one of them like for example
◼
►
a speed test where you might have one
◼
►
you might have one called internet
◼
►
utilities for example isn't a stand and
◼
►
I often you know when i get like a new
◼
►
device from Apple to you know like the
◼
►
new ipad mini comes out and i want to
◼
►
test the to see hey what's the LT is the
◼
►
LTE speeds just as fast as the iphone by
◼
►
getting different speeds or something
◼
►
that so now i haven't used to be tested
◼
►
a while but i want to use it and i think
◼
►
you know i used this thing enough that I
◼
►
I should move it up to a more prominent
◼
►
screen but i'll search for it on that
◼
►
search screen and then I want to know
◼
►
where the hell is I don't know where
◼
►
speed test is on my phone I don't really
◼
►
tells you that it's in a folder called
◼
►
travel I don't have no idea where it is
◼
►
so I'll just what I'll do is I'll just
◼
►
launch it from the the search page and
◼
►
give up on knowing where the hell is
◼
►
what i would ask right now is that they
◼
►
added something in six that's cool
◼
►
which is when you search if you have
◼
►
done the you know it's pretty cool
◼
►
disney magic that if you put two similar
◼
►
apps if you drop a nap on a similar app
◼
►
it's pretty cool that those notes that
◼
►
those are both music apps or travel
◼
►
option that's pretty that's pretty cool
◼
►
it's done that ever since they've had
◼
►
the folders feature if yeah but I mean
◼
►
it was gonna say that it's nice it's
◼
►
always been cool it guesses that well
◼
►
but will be nice and this is probably
◼
►
inner thing but when you do that search
◼
►
for speed test what we call that thing
◼
►
the search page whatever you them then
◼
►
your spotlight they might call it
◼
►
spotlight did you notice that it now
◼
►
shows you the name of the folder when it
◼
►
finds no I didn't know that so if you
◼
►
search for something to show you the
◼
►
name the folder now obviously the neck
◼
►
the great tell you what home screen
◼
►
that's on though I want to know what's
◼
►
going on homescreen aight well I wish
◼
►
there was just a disclosed button there
◼
►
would or a you know an i right or just
◼
►
show me love show it to me
◼
►
yeah but but you know that this is this
◼
►
is the one funny thing when I'm sure we
◼
►
don't have time to get into this but i
◼
►
want at least a stake in the ground
◼
►
I there's so much stuff like it's one
◼
►
thing to say okay I want to play list
◼
►
and of these songs that i liked or I
◼
►
want to make a mixtape for somebody as
◼
►
we used to say but there's so much power
◼
►
in smart playlists that most people have
◼
►
no idea about and they are absolutely
◼
►
indispensable if you're using iTunes
◼
►
Match like I have I have I have so many
◼
►
of these that I rely on one of them is
◼
►
here is all stuff that I know is
◼
►
copacetic in the cloud right and
◼
►
everything it's matched your purchase
◼
►
toward any of the matches these are any
◼
►
of these three criteria that first of
◼
►
all fantastic because you can see how
◼
►
much of your stuff is you know up there
◼
►
show me any one where it is not you know
◼
►
is where it's deleted or problem or
◼
►
whatever it is but you know what I've
◼
►
got I've got one that I swear by this is
◼
►
a little byzantine but I take that is
◼
►
this safe in the cloud list and I use
◼
►
that as the basis for show me everything
◼
►
that's in my safe in the cloud list this
◼
►
larger than 15 mix and sort by size so
◼
►
if I'm running out of space
◼
►
I know that can very clear very quickly
◼
►
clear up three gigs by deleting
◼
►
everything in here without actually
◼
►
losing it forever and on my on my
◼
►
macbook air that's indispensable that I
◼
►
mean I feel that thing up fast if i put
◼
►
some HD movies on their right forgot I
◼
►
forgot a pre-bought to Bob brave and the
◼
►
brave plus special features is going to
◼
►
be like eight gigs or whatever things
◼
►
like that but then you can also get into
◼
►
these wonderful things where you can mix
◼
►
those less this should be a separate
◼
►
show i'm sorry but if you come up with
◼
►
the list that work for you like you know
◼
►
show me everything that I listen to more
◼
►
than 10 times it's not in children's
◼
►
music or holiday music or any of this
◼
►
array and has fewer than 5 skip counts
◼
►
wow that's actually a pretty great list
◼
►
doesn't matter what rating you gave it
◼
►
your going to hear songs that you like
◼
►
so if you can combine those together you
◼
►
come up with these fantastic on-the-go
◼
►
list for iOS and that stuff is all still
◼
►
I don't think it's super obvious how to
◼
►
use all that a lot of people don't know
◼
►
that you can make like sub list entries
◼
►
inside of smart playlist you know what I
◼
►
mean yeah where you can have a raise and
◼
►
a raise or whatever right but you like
◼
►
it i do anything about the second spot
◼
►
sir I can tell you another repeat
◼
►
sponsor and repeat sponsors make me so
◼
►
happy because it makes me feel like
◼
►
they're part of the talk show family our
◼
►
friends at global delight and their app
◼
►
it's a brand-new version of their great
◼
►
app camera+ pro camera plus pro little
◼
►
bit of a tongue twister is a powerful
◼
►
yet simple camera app and it's a photo
◼
►
editing app so lets you shoot edit and
◼
►
share beautiful photos and videos from
◼
►
your iphone and your iphone 5 your ipod
◼
►
touch or even your ipad people love to
◼
►
shoot their stuff on your iPad it's a
◼
►
great it's a favorite of iphone
◼
►
photographers it has incredible features
◼
►
my favorites are things like it's got
◼
►
really good focus lock exposure control
◼
►
manual white balance you can change the
◼
►
white balance it has a good anti-shake
◼
►
feature to help steady photos when
◼
►
you're holding it in your hand bunch of
◼
►
options for grid lines so you could turn
◼
►
on the rule of thirds you can set on
◼
►
some other options for the gridlines you
◼
►
can turn on the mode they call it big
◼
►
button mode where the whole screen is
◼
►
the shutter right never have that
◼
►
problem with the built-in camera app or
◼
►
that there's only like two pixels that
◼
►
registers you don't want to use you
◼
►
don't want to like if you use this
◼
►
inward facing camera you can hit the
◼
►
button but if you tried it from the
◼
►
other side it's a real you know talking
◼
►
about your portrait exactly big button
◼
►
it helps so much for that right because
◼
►
you all you have to know if you feel
◼
►
glass it's a shutter button
◼
►
they've also you know they've got the
◼
►
same thing that the photo app has
◼
►
everybody has now you can use the volume
◼
►
you can also use the volume button on a
◼
►
headphone if it's attached so it's sort
◼
►
of like what do they call that Dad
◼
►
photography terms are remote shutter
◼
►
button really James Bond make you do
◼
►
that I on the video side now here's
◼
►
where they're really getting in a realm
◼
►
where these are some of that really
◼
►
advanced features they got done the
◼
►
video side you can shoot videos with
◼
►
camera+ pro with real-time video filters
◼
►
so you can get and now you know and
◼
►
again i always say this i know people
◼
►
are some people are against the filters
◼
►
some of the filters yeah a little bit
◼
►
kitschy a little bit retro some of the
◼
►
filters are just you know really make it
◼
►
look a little bit more like
◼
►
movie you know more filmic I think some
◼
►
of the filters are really great but you
◼
►
can see them live I don't even know how
◼
►
that to me this is black magic i don't i
◼
►
don't know how a little iphone thing can
◼
►
can do live video filtering as you shoot
◼
►
that's the thing that blew me away about
◼
►
these guys at macworld last year's I
◼
►
think it got them the best to show at
◼
►
macworld expose that they were they had
◼
►
this app that did video filters you know
◼
►
I Instagram style histogram style
◼
►
whatever you want to call it but live as
◼
►
you shoot the video i had no idea that
◼
►
existed i love this happened had no idea
◼
►
that accepted and it doesn't seem
◼
►
mathematically possible to me but it
◼
►
I sharing you could share to facebook
◼
►
twitter flickr anyplace you want to send
◼
►
photos they have a feature I don't know
◼
►
why anybody would ever want to use such
◼
►
a feature but they have a feature where
◼
►
you can have a private collection of
◼
►
photos within the app that's
◼
►
password-protected i don't know i mean
◼
►
it seems like something somebody would
◼
►
want to use I don't yes a sensitive
◼
►
exactly that's a good idea but i use it
◼
►
i like it it's got some great if you
◼
►
know and it's a dude on the whole bunch
◼
►
of filters that you can use one of my
◼
►
fam other favorite things about their
◼
►
filters is that when you apply a filter
◼
►
to a photo I have a little slider that
◼
►
just let you adjust the filter strength
◼
►
so if you say give it the bleach bypass
◼
►
filter and it really has this sort of
◼
►
absurdly strong filter look to it if you
◼
►
think that's too much you can just slide
◼
►
that down a little bit and just to put
◼
►
it like thirty percent or something like
◼
►
that and it just gives it a hint of that
◼
►
look which i think is a just a great
◼
►
feature really really helps sort of let
◼
►
you feel like you're in control of it
◼
►
and it like a real app like lightroom or
◼
►
something like that on your Mac here's
◼
►
how do you get it I know that's what
◼
►
you ever hear the website bit ly I know
◼
►
about Bentley vit dot I know why right
◼
►
see here's what you do you go to
◼
►
bit.ly/b i TTLY / by CP pro so that that
◼
►
bu y like buyers and purchase bu y SI p
◼
►
that'll let them track it you don't know
◼
►
that you're coming from the talk show
◼
►
that's the idea behind the bitly URL
◼
►
they can say wow look at all these
◼
►
people coming from the talk show how
◼
►
much does it cost cost up buck 99 12 box
◼
►
that's going to get a great app camera+
◼
►
pro when you google for it comes up
◼
►
number one number one before you can do
◼
►
before we do it as Google's monster
◼
►
would like to mention them they have
◼
►
their big supporters of the show i have
◼
►
i have wow I I'll this
◼
►
wow I guess I i thought i was using this
◼
►
most recent version but oh my god this
◼
►

◼
►
were one of the first they're one of the
◼
►
first word when camera+ came out
◼
►
everybody was like wait a minute you can
◼
►
yep so what else is going on is that you
◼
►
know what it is and we're going along we
◼
►
should get the hell off we should have
◼
►

◼
►

◼
►

►

◼
►

◼
►
volatility I'm not a magician
◼
►
we can talk more time ever done it never
◼
►
happens you never told you you could
◼
►
never lose then I have for government
◼
►
veranda federal something-something this
◼
►
is pretty probably long right run along
◼
►
a little bit but dunno maybe there's
◼
►
some stuff we could cut we keep talking
◼
►
about how you have apple news kind of
◼
►
cattail people one more thing
◼
►
yeah what do you want to talk about I
◼
►
feel like you have some self what you
◼
►
want to say well I'm gonna mention more
◼
►
slightly items related thing now
◼
►
now i'm a a reformed retired adjunct
◼
►
productivity guy of some renown I must
◼
►
say and for her for years
◼
►
one of the i use this is an example i
◼
►
always use notebooks as an exact great
◼
►
example of productivity porn and the
◼
►
idea that if you focus too much on the
◼
►
he won't do your stuff the other example
◼
►
in terms of like stuff I do and I
◼
►
mention that because i'm a notebook nerd
◼
►
like I love field notes i love all these
◼
►
notes the other one for me is is
◼
►
metadata I am so pointlessly obsessed
◼
►
with correct metadata and things and it
◼
►
drives me bananas and even for a long
◼
►
time I there are various other various
◼
►
different ways to use this but running
◼
►
people wear something that's really cool
◼
►
and it's free think it's free
◼
►
musicbrainz mean mu SE pyaar ki NZ
◼
►
believe it's musicbrainz dork but if you
◼
►
google musicbrainz you will find it it
◼
►
has the most exhaustive set of metadata
◼
►
about anything I've ever seen you don't
◼
►
want to go to shot just for fun so
◼
►
here's the neat part though a you go in
◼
►
and search musicbrainz for tom petty
◼
►
it's because they are some petty you
◼
►
click on Tom Petty this is ok show me
◼
►
the torpedoes ok yourselves repeat rows
◼
►
wait a minute you're telling me that
◼
►
there's a will that be nineteen eighty
◼
►
that there's like all that whatever the
◼
►
whatever came out 1980 versus on this
◼
►
label that's an LP but there's also a
◼
►
version that came out later on with
◼
►
bonus tracks on a CD and is also never
◼
►
it doesn't drive you crazy when you have
◼
►
to when you want to get that metadata
◼
►
right on stuff but there's like four
◼
►
extra tracks and their itunes confused
◼
►
well this is that all that stuff is in
◼
►
there which is amazing but here's the
◼
►
beauty part you can download this app
◼
►
called things called musicbrainz picard
◼
►
like you like Professor X Picard and you
◼
►
get on the download strong luke and you
◼
►
drag tracks into this and it applies all
◼
►
that metadata to your tracks for you
◼
►
downtown your name in the files
◼
►
how do you get that you just go to a
◼
►
good search for musicbrainz picard and
◼
►
it's not the prettiest kind of swing
◼
►
looking kind of you know python looking
◼
►
but it works well and you go in and say
◼
►
you just throw a big bunch of stuff in
◼
►
I think it's better to start out like I
◼
►
just to get a get your legs under you
◼
►
put it like grab there's some album
◼
►
where you've got to get you throw a
◼
►
nightmare on elm street whatever the
◼
►
stones records you like throw that in
◼
►
there and then tell it everything in
◼
►
this group make this the costly released
◼
►
edition from a couple years ago and say
◼
►
boom because the correct stuff it enters
◼
►
you like everything that it can and then
◼
►
they make sure i can so much more fun to
◼
►
use it sounds crazy but if you get stuff
◼
►
you can it'll improve stuff like your
◼
►
stuff you bought from Apple too little
◼
►
ad better stuff to that anyway I just it
◼
►
organizes better it makes your playlist
◼
►
it drives me nuts will not help it will
◼
►
help with album art for missing album
◼
►
art I think it will help in the Senate
◼
►
I'm trying to remember you can get album
◼
►
art for I know there are other apps that
◼
►
do that used to be one called mp3
◼
►
someone I used to use but there's always
◼
►
been little apps like this if nothing
◼
►
else it'll make sure that it has
◼
►
normalized as John siracusa says
◼
►
normalized metadata that will be correct
◼
►
and help you find hopefully the right
◼
►
one have a common except that does that
◼
►
but I guess what I'm kind of getting at
◼
►
is like one of two things first of all
◼
►
like there's nice we have so much stuff
◼
►
now that labeling stuff incorrectly has
◼
►
a cost to it even if it's silly stuff
◼
►
like music because stuff like duplicates
◼
►
because you can send more than one
◼
►
version itunes match as i learned i have
◼
►
arrived as i click around yesterday
◼
►
looking for screenshots and stuff
◼
►
I don't realize just how many duplicate

►
just like duplicates and display exact
◼
►
duplicates is only so helpful in a first
◼
►
of all it doesn't work all that great
◼
►
and be it doesn't automatically pick
◼
►
well if you find the correct version and
◼
►
prefer this certain bit rain so forth it
◼
►
gets a lot easier to do that i'm
◼
►
actually have an app that i like that
◼
►
will help with that a lot i have one of
◼
►
those for iphoto that I like a lot but
◼
►
hey there's a cost not having this
◼
►
correct because you know example case be
◼
►
i'm on iOS and suddenly i have four
◼
►
different artist called electric light
◼
►
orchestra which makes it really annoying
◼
►
well I happen to like yellow but you
◼
►
know what I'm saying like you go in
◼
►
there now and your stuff isn't all in
◼
►
the same place so you can make lists as
◼
►
easily you're going to go back to your
◼
►
computer and fix all of that some people
◼
►
on iOS you know maybe don't even have
◼
►
that option but we do if we're always 10
◼
►
users and this is a great ones of the
◼
►
card one of my pics pic of the week and
◼
►
your you strike me somebody's probably
◼
►
not a big metadata guy you don't spend a
◼
►
morning on that i can i can get IQ get i
◼
►
can get into it for the stuff that
◼
►
matters to you it's great like all I do
◼
►
new order stuff and fixed up all my new
◼
►
order stuff make sure the tracks come
◼
►
from the right thing and instead of me
◼
►
having to sit there in search 10 sites
◼
►
to find which of these five versions of
◼
►
ceremony this is it will do it for you
◼
►
and it's pretty terrific it can also do
◼
►
an acoustic fingerprint it will look at
◼
►
if it doesn't if you have no idea what
◼
►
the track is you throw in your unknown
◼
►
whatever that you know that one checked
◼
►
folder you have called unknown sort of
◼
►
whatever it couldn't it'll take a shot
◼
►
take a swag and doing an acoustic
◼
►
footprint to figure out what it is huh
◼
►
so as more of your let's say a hundred
◼
►
and twenty-eight k plus stuff makes it
◼
►
way it makes its way into the itunes
◼
►
ecosystem this will benefit you even
◼
►
just take you here you go make a smart
◼
►
playlist of your most played albums and
◼
►
just even fix those and make your life
◼
►
so it's good and something I'll share my
◼
►
our my smart playlist with you you have
◼
►
those did you do smart playlist for
◼
►
iTunes Match I for iTunes Match like I
◼
►
was really scared to throw stuff away
◼
►
until I was really I mean I was scared I
◼
►
knew that I didn't have to have a 65 gig
◼
►
itunes library on every machine anymore
◼
►
swimming and i wanted to i want to have
◼
►
the confidence to delete stuff
◼
►
especially with movies dude I mean I had
◼
►
it set to automatically download like I
◼
►
say with brave i mean brave was big
◼
►
you know that SP that's one of the
◼
►
things that to me is unheralded about
◼
►
the new itunes 11 is there now are under
◼
►
Harold at least is that they've finally
◼
►
they more or less than the same thing
◼
►
with movies and TV shows as they did
◼
►
with music where if you bought it from
◼
►
apple it's you can just delete it from
◼
►
your computer and it still shows up and
◼
►
it's just like you know it's in this
◼
►
oh you know the other thing they added
◼
►
but I'm this actually supports I think
◼
►
rather than refutes that he did you see
◼
►
you now have an overall tick-box 44
◼
►
don't show so you know it like for
◼
►
example on iOS you can go in and say
◼
►
only show local music don't show iCloud
◼
►
music that's not on this ya ice
◼
►
yeah you can do that now in itunes also
◼
►
without a smart playlist which is huge
◼
►
if you're on vacation right because
◼
►
you're not don't don't tease me with the
◼
►
shit I can't play well here's the thing
◼
►
II when you're on vacation you won't
◼
►
find out you don't have it but a if
◼
►
you're not a vacation yet you might want
◼
►
to go and be sure you've got everything
◼
►
you want on there right so that's a nice
◼
►
one I mean that's a nice feature because
◼
►
not everybody's going to care about that
◼
►
or need that you know it's we always
◼
►
have to think about the people who are
◼
►
the new customers where is that growth
◼
►
well you know there's not that many
◼
►
people certainly there are nervous
◼
►
they're gonna buy 5 iPad and 7i phones
◼
►
but clearly this growth is among people
◼
►
who have not been in the apple ecosystem
◼
►
I'm i think is back it gets back to the
◼
►
one of my rolled refrains which is that
◼
►
it's really almost everything is hard if
◼
►
it wasn't part of the original idea and
◼
►
the whole cloud thing was not part of
◼
►
the original idea with itunes and it
◼
►
really felt it with all the other
◼
►
previous versions whereas this new
◼
►
redesign really was and you know part of
◼
►
it you can be completely cynical about
◼
►
which is that it's also very largely
◼
►
about getting you to buy more stuff from
◼
►
the store but it you know just starting
◼
►
from the blank white board when they
◼
►
started designing with this new one was
◼
►
gonna look like it click they clearly
◼
►
had that a lot of this stuff the
◼
►
canonical store for it is our servers
◼
►
and you know I cloud wherever the hell
◼
►
they are as opposed to the old itunes
◼
►
where that the cloud stuff really was it
◼
►
both effectively and visually sort
◼
►
attacked on MH now you're i think i
◼
►
think you're right and you know the the
◼
►
cash to completely unexpected part of
◼
►
all this for me is apple TV her which I
◼
►
treated as as much of a hobby as Apple
◼
►
did for a long time but when I got the
◼
►
have the 720p the second latest one
◼
►
same here I it is unbelievable i say i
◼
►
did a whole couple podcast about this
◼
►
about how I moved away from my old
◼
►
system having a mac mini and drove to do
◼
►
everything I still got them around but
◼
►
it's crazy how little i miss having a
◼
►
dedicated large storage device
◼
►
you know I mean I mean yes absolutely i
◼
►
am you know what I was drinking the
◼
►
other night about a copy of phantasm
◼
►
using phantasm it brings about remember
◼
►
that scary a commercial and is that orb
◼
►
like there's even a mausoleum and you
◼
►
see that the or with the little
◼
►
you can google it yeah the orb with the
◼
►
spike coming out of that goes in the
◼
►
guy's head and pulls out this blood
◼
►
spurts out just great low budget horror
◼
►
film from 1979 and described and then it
◼
►
was on my iPad in a few minutes that
◼
►
that they have created starting with the
◼
►
early days of the itunes store and being
◼
►
able to buy I mean to me now that
◼
►
pattern has become so ingrained that it
◼
►
competes very heavily with the
◼
►
pre-existing habit of just going and
◼
►
getting it off the back of a truck
◼
►
I I feel great being legit with it but
◼
►
it's also just more convenient not
◼
►
knowing that this is not going to have
◼
►
hard-coded dutch subs whatever those are
◼
►
but this will be like a good version of
◼
►
this that i can get from anywhere right
◼
►
you know the best copy the Avengers I've
◼
►
got is the one that I paid for and
◼
►
that's the thing that's really that's a
◼
►
good thing hasn't happened for you I
◼
►
mean Europe you use it seems like this
◼
►
must have been big for you guys too
◼
►
especially you got a kid too
◼
►
yeah I wish we had more of our movies on
◼
►
itunes then then dvds and stuff like
◼
►
that maybe the after dark all table
◼
►
something called I flex or play with
◼
►
ok I flac KS just saying I fli x ck x
◼
►
its yeah its metadata in place without
◼
►
having to recreate code and if it's an
◼
►
MKV whatever that is it can put a
◼
►
quicktime wrapper around it that lets it
◼
►
run right in itunes good thing
◼
►
yeah I know you know me i get yeah i
◼
►
know you get confused
◼
►
ya gotta get confused actually what
◼
►
Margaret wellhead was never forget this
◼
►
one night I tried to show was I don't
◼
►
know Gotye was the you & Simpson were
◼
►
definitely there and I was really
◼
►
excited about showing you this one
◼
►
bookmarklet oh and I remember like I I
◼
►
never felt like a bigger nerd than when
◼
►
you two guys were not interested in
◼
►
anything i had on and you're seriously
◼
►
you're like I was I was like the kid who
◼
►
was likely a nice bike well one of my
◼
►
boss by Kate spank you can just walked
◼
►
away I do i do remember that i actually
◼
►
it oddly have a very vivid memory of
◼
►
that I believe somehow we had either
◼
►
gotten kicked out of her head somehow
◼
►
decided that it was a bad scene it
◼
►
how about shields and we're going to
◼
►
Rickenbacker's right my opinion there's
◼
►
been several times I'd so you decided to
◼
►
spend like the three walk that there's
◼
►
like a three block walk
◼
►
between the two bars are going to catch
◼
►
up and talk about our lives we decided
◼
►
to explain quicks it goes next click
◼
►
like this crazy kinda like look I type
◼
►
in mdl returns a markdown link I've
◼
►
never met somebody so uninterested in
◼
►
the own the other thing that they have
◼
►
made the change the world
◼
►
I'm trying to show you a bookmarklet
◼
►
Montgomery Street and you won't even
◼
►
look at it but how do you remember it
◼
►
was it was you guys literally turn your
◼
►
backs and walked away but I also
◼
►
remember to that where we had previously
◼
►
all been on the same track we've been
◼
►
having a good time and then all of a
◼
►
sudden you took the b train and we took
◼
►
the seat man that's there's a reason i
◼
►
didn't get to sit at the lunch table
◼
►
with the cool kids actually just about
◼
►
30 reasons but I feel any battery
◼
►
feeling better having done this is it
◼
►
that you can get your head clear out a
◼
►
little over this cold i just don't maybe
◼
►
some time talking talking about your
◼
►
event feel a little better yeah
◼
►
absolutely but i don't have to see that
◼
►
is my that's my cue asked what my cold
◼
►
medicine of choice my cold medicine of
◼
►
choice is bourbon and because that's you
◼
►
know what if you will go and look at a
◼
►
lot of the medicines that are out there
◼
►
you know what it is it's alcohol there
◼
►
that's the truth we're still it's
◼
►
something that used to be useful because
◼
►
it had alcohol and now they took it's
◼
►
like it's like good like caffeine free
◼
►
diet coke like I don't understand what
◼
►
you're what you're drinking at that
◼
►
point you know in this case this used to
◼
►
be all about the liquor and now it's
◼
►
just something you buy a pharmacy that's
◼
►
a you know just some kind of useless
◼
►
tincture right what's the proof of
◼
►
nyquil I guess whether you feel better
◼
►
back sorry I don't know what the proof
◼
►
is our kitty dukakis she's a rubbing
◼
►
alcohol lady right I what did she turn
◼
►
was it running on the same running out i
◼
►
don't think i might have been yeah yeah
◼
►
i think it was a shame i shouldn mission
◼
►
no that's not funny now he lost the
◼
►
election that's not funny right there
◼
►
would be pretty funny that she paid the
◼
►
White House just drinking a flower pots
◼
►
that's a bummer bummer that that becomes
◼
►
your file card you know like that
◼
►
like your one fast yeah like you David
◼
►
Carradine was was was going to be
◼
►
remembered as the guy from that show
◼
►
where they can get Bruce Lee that was
◼
►
yeah it's the antibiotic there was a way
◼
►
he was a white guy who could do pretty
◼
►
cool karate in one chunk Norris he could
◼
►
pull off a nation right yeah and then
◼
►
you know things just went a little south
◼
►
that is true yeah and there's some guys
◼
►
who can outlive it you know i mean like
◼
►
Elvis Elvis is a big enough guy
◼
►
where ya he he died ignominiously but
◼
►
that's just like an asterisk like a sad
◼
►
little yeah like element Beatles were
◼
►
big enough that we can remember them in
◼
►
different ways like they don't even
◼
►
remember when the stamps came out and
◼
►
like shouldn't be young Elvis or fat
◼
►
Elvis but there's not that many people
◼
►
like maybe Liz Taylor but there aren't
◼
►
that many people apart from people like
◼
►
them in the beatles where you get to go
◼
►
oh yeah there's the paul mccartney from
◼
►
this time in that time Elvis man
◼
►
yeah but like David Carradine he's a guy
◼
►
who's sort of that's a shame
◼
►
yeah I love that show 1989 Dukakis was
◼
►
briefly hospitalized after drinking
◼
►
rubbing alcohol rubbing alcohol running
◼
►
or thats that's rough
◼
►
that is rough and no i don't i can't
◼
►
think of any mixers that would make that
◼
►
a good thing for me yeah I don't think
◼
►
there's anything happen with that either
◼
►
you think cops n kids today a/c they
◼
►
would get it like an artisanal run right
◼
►
artisan okay yeah it would be alcohol do
◼
►
ribbing and it would be like guys like
◼
►
an absent that comes with a special
◼
►
spoon or something in a very elaborate
◼
►
Bob how this is how about our our bar
◼
►
yes you can come in and get a cocktail
◼
►
with ice like the other little queer
◼
►
bait bars you come to ours we're going

►
