[SPEAKER_06]: I've done everything and usually when you couldn't satisfy yourself with a wireless capability you could throw little Ethernet cable into the back of the thing well guess what this one doesn't have it.

[SPEAKER_04]: It's they don't have a wireless don't have an input for a hundred oh That is not okay.

[SPEAKER_04]: That's bad bad right?

[SPEAKER_06]: So I just.

[SPEAKER_06]: I know you know people get online and do TikTok videos and destroy this stuff. [SPEAKER_06]: But I just bought the goddamn thing. [SPEAKER_06]: And it just will not. [SPEAKER_06]: And then at one point it says the protocols inside the printer, unplug it, plug it in, change your settings, verify your password. [SPEAKER_06]: Well, I verified my password for my network. [SPEAKER_06]: I've done that. [SPEAKER_06]: It still doesn't want to play nice with my wireless network. [SPEAKER_06]: Although it was. [SPEAKER_06]: playing nice with the network after I got my new uh... set up in here and it just gets to a point where every now and then when i'm coming in to do this program i don't rely on the printer anymore certainly of uh... i've gone completely did you tell but [SPEAKER_06]: This thing occasionally when I want to have like a little last minute news story. [SPEAKER_06]: I want to bring to you. [SPEAKER_06]: I'll throw it on the printer and I'll bring it in here and I want that abset. [SPEAKER_06]: I want that capability or when somebody tells me that Shay Bay is going to come on the show and then there's a last minute like bio that I have to. [SPEAKER_06]: I usually throw that in a pretty little yesterday. [SPEAKER_06]: Yesterday I came in and I had to do it all this. [SPEAKER_06]: These bells and whistles to put it on another outlet so I could do it digitally and that took a long time and then she wasn't here. [SPEAKER_06]: So I mean, it's just that it's been this printer, this episode that I really liked at the beginning. [SPEAKER_06]: It has replaced the Hewlett Packard, another printer that said, if you to me, and I'm, I'm really, I love it. [SPEAKER_04]: Don't offer this. [SPEAKER_04]: Josh, I'm guessing you're so cool that you don't have a printer. [SPEAKER_03]: No, I hate my printer. [SPEAKER_03]: I have to do a half-on-plug power and re-plug power. [SPEAKER_03]: What brand I want to print? [SPEAKER_04]: What make of printer do you have? [SPEAKER_03]: What's the one that ripped you off through the internet? [SPEAKER_03]: Is it HP? [SPEAKER_03]: I feel like I can read out some of them. [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's the one. [SPEAKER_03]: That's what I'm talking about. [SPEAKER_04]: But mine has been my, oh dear, my. [SPEAKER_06]: Was that a focus focus? [SPEAKER_04]: Mine has been really good about staying on network. [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know why. [SPEAKER_04]: Now, I do hate you a lot. [SPEAKER_04]: I don't care about yours. [SPEAKER_04]: Mike, I'm trying to find a solution for your future. [SPEAKER_04]: That a human Packard might be your job. [SPEAKER_04]: I know you're you're you're keyed up and we're all keyed up. [SPEAKER_03]: The solution every time cannot be by new. [SPEAKER_03]: I'm not going to do that with this one. [SPEAKER_03]: I have to figure this out. [SPEAKER_03]: Have you asked Michael to spend some time with it? [SPEAKER_06]: No, because Michael doesn't have that breadth of knowledge. [SPEAKER_06]: So I'm not going to bother with it this time with him. [SPEAKER_06]: I don't think he has that breadth of knowledge with this particular thing. [SPEAKER_06]: And the other thing is, and this will spill into the bonus show, and then we will get to the sick house with Rob, because that's the top story today. [SPEAKER_06]: I have to say this that [SPEAKER_06]: uh... but two years ago got on this little thing that uh... the local realtor who sold me this house has this home valuation thing and it comes out every uh... i want to say maybe that's it's every two months three months and i'm sure but it comes out [SPEAKER_06]: every couple of months and it gives you what you could sell your house for and it's a very comforting thing to see because we all had this wonderful ride and it's really great and I want to say that there has never been a drop in value on my house like there was in the last month and I wanted to say thank you Mr. President [SPEAKER_04]: Did your house have a big price? [SPEAKER_06]: Everything, by the way, hey, idiots who voted for him. [SPEAKER_06]: Okay. [SPEAKER_06]: Let me tell you this. [SPEAKER_06]: It's all crumbling. [SPEAKER_06]: The tariff came back. [SPEAKER_06]: The tariffs came in today. [SPEAKER_06]: Here we go. [SPEAKER_06]: Here we go. [SPEAKER_06]: It's not the bonus show yet. [SPEAKER_06]: No, no, sorry. [SPEAKER_06]: I'll hold it. [SPEAKER_06]: I'll hold it. [SPEAKER_06]: I want to have the use bad language. [SPEAKER_04]: It was the big jump. [SPEAKER_04]: The biggest jump in your house's value was when you moved in, right? [SPEAKER_06]: Isn't that when it's skyrocketed when I put the plaque on the door? [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, it said, Mike, my girl lives here. [SPEAKER_06]: Just jockey. [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm sure the place went down because the pipe and drape is gone. [SPEAKER_06]: The pipe and drape that was so incredibly valuable. [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that was great. [SPEAKER_03]: I'll save it all and I do get I get those emails as well about home value and I get irritated when I get the email because for some reason it keeps sending me to my old Maryland home [SPEAKER_06]: Well, and what they do, it's way bigger than I told it for. [SPEAKER_06]: A lot of realtors do this. [SPEAKER_06]: It's a chance for realtors to get a cut of, uh, revise and stuff like that. [SPEAKER_06]: That's what it is. [SPEAKER_06]: But it, it also, they lowball the, uh, the price of the houses. [SPEAKER_06]: Uh, so I thought I could get a lot more from it. [SPEAKER_06]: But now it's. [SPEAKER_04]: I would think that this would be something that the realtor sent in with an inflated value. [SPEAKER_04]: No, not, not a big URL. [SPEAKER_04]: Excited to sell. [SPEAKER_03]: No, and a Florida. [SPEAKER_03]: All home values are kind of stalled or down in Florida. [SPEAKER_06]: In many areas of the country. [SPEAKER_03]: Well, especially Florida right now, there's because because we have a Republican administration. [SPEAKER_03]: No, because we have so many people come to Florida that they're building new homes. [SPEAKER_03]: And they're just tearing trees down like crazy. [SPEAKER_06]: Worst real estate market in the nation is about fifteen miles from here. [SPEAKER_06]: Little town that Jimmy Serrito would call Cape Corral on a really Cape Corral and in a free fall. [SPEAKER_06]: in a free fall right now. [SPEAKER_06]: You know, America, I'm not, it's, it's, I'm, they let my candle today with the tariffs kicking in and all that. [SPEAKER_06]: But the real thing is I thought, [SPEAKER_06]: that the old Kovie was, you know, pretty much dead and gone and we didn't have to worry about it. [SPEAKER_06]: There was, they even have another, like, uh, hunka duly virus that's coming out of China right now. [SPEAKER_06]: Right. [SPEAKER_06]: Right. [SPEAKER_06]: But Rob, well, I'll let you give us the update. [SPEAKER_06]: You would mention sick house yesterday, Santa, like everybody had a cold and now, uh, what's going on? [SPEAKER_04]: Josh, if you could bring up a map of current infections, it would show a lot. [SPEAKER_04]: Robert hasn't been feeling that well for a couple days. [SPEAKER_04]: Nothing really, you know, back breaking. [SPEAKER_04]: He was just going to take it easy and sort of write it out, but he got to feeling really bad. [SPEAKER_04]: So he went to Urgent Care and they ran some tests on him and they found out, aha. [SPEAKER_04]: He has strep, which will make you feel bad, but I think it's also compounded by the fact that he has COVID now, and he is in my heart with the COVID-nineteen. [SPEAKER_04]: Yes, the coronavirus. [SPEAKER_06]: Didn't he just start his new thing? [SPEAKER_06]: His job. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, now most of that is the end of the day. [SPEAKER_04]: last week was the first day, but this week, he he can work from home for this. [SPEAKER_04]: Okay, good, good. [SPEAKER_06]: So it's not like he's there's the new world. [SPEAKER_06]: He can. [SPEAKER_04]: It's not like he's totally just pissing all of that away. [SPEAKER_04]: Okay. [SPEAKER_04]: There is a new COVID strain called Stratus. [SPEAKER_04]: That sounds that sounds ominous and it is really taking over the country and the map is red in the state of Virginia have not read of any of this yet. [SPEAKER_04]: I have learned it's because people have given up on boosters and it's starting to spread again. [SPEAKER_04]: I don't even know where Robert was he went to the office once. [SPEAKER_06]: Last year, you're computers. [SPEAKER_06]: You are doing it. [SPEAKER_06]: God damn it. [SPEAKER_03]: Here's the map. [SPEAKER_03]: I don't only understand the map. [SPEAKER_03]: It shows basically the whole code. [SPEAKER_03]: One says five percent. [SPEAKER_03]: Five to nine percent tested positive. [SPE
