The WOR Saturday Morning Show with Larry Mendte - - 7 - 19 - 2025

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is a podcast from wor Now the wr Saturday
Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Here's Larry Minty.

Speaker 3 (00:08):
Welcome to Saturday Morning. On this week's show, Republican candidate
Curtis Leiwa is now in a statistical tie in the
race for mayor. We'll talk with Curtis in about thirty seconds.
NASA County executive Bruce Blakeman is thrilled with a new
police training center that very well may be the best
in the country. President Trump is diagnosed with chronic veinous insufficiency.

(00:33):
Well ask doctor Jan katz Nelson, founder and CEO of
the US Vain Clinics, about the prognosis. And rich DeMuro
from rich On Tech is here with some easy ways
you can use and learn AI. But first here is
Republican candidate for mayor, Curtis Leewa. Congratulations Curtis, that latest

(00:56):
poll is really eye opening. You've been saying from the
beginning we had you on a couple of months ago.
You've been saying from the beginning you can win this race,
and this poll proves it's true.

Speaker 4 (01:10):
Not only that, but Larry, with a sitting mayor mired
in corruption involving his police command, a former police commissioner,
charging him with running the police department as if it
were the Gambino crime family. This guy had the gall
to say that crime is down in the City of

(01:31):
New York. I'm in all three hundred and fifty neighborhood
says you know, Larry, I've yet to have one person
come up to me and say, oh, Curtis, you got
it wrong. I feel so much safer with Eric Adams
as the mayor. And because he's failed on the issue
of law and order and quality of life, which is
number three and four in the polls, has not provided
affordable housing and the cost of living his skyrocketing.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
He's a failed mayor.

Speaker 4 (01:55):
And that's why Jorhan Mandami has risen from nowhere months ago. Larry,
nobody knew who saw on Mondami, right, not even his neighbors.
Now he's an international figure. And I told you back then,
follow the numbers. I start with thirty percent of the vote.
If I get a few more percentage points, you, Larry,

(02:16):
are talking to the mayor of the City of New York.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
It will not be Eric Adams, it will not be Cormo.

Speaker 4 (02:22):
It is going to be a run between those that
support Mondamie on the left and those in the middle
and the right who support Curtish Leeway.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
Well, I really am polling for you, and I hope
that's true. I'd love to see you as the mayor
of New York City, and I think New York City
would be better for it. You know, we got a
couple of talkbacks that I want to play for you.
Everybody wants to help your campaign. You've got a lot
of supporters on this radio station. Here's the first one.

Speaker 5 (02:47):
Larry, when you get Curtis on, you gotta tell Curtis listen, man.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
You look.

Speaker 5 (02:52):
He's great for the safety of the city, no doubt
about it. But I think that's more of a concern
for older people. He needs to reach out to younger voters.
He needs to bring some people on that can reach
out to younger voters. We can do this, Curtis, Come on, baby,
let's do this.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
Go ahead.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
Larry's correct.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
In fact, if you look at my campaign team, it's
made up all of millennials and Gen zers. If you
look at the successful presidential campaign of Donald Trump, he
was able masterfully to bring on board a number of male,
mostly male, very few females, millennials and Gen Zers, and
I believe that was the difference in him being able

(03:36):
to win the battleground states all seven and the popular vote.
So there's no doubt about it. All the millennials and
the gen Zers who are now the majority of the population,
they are the majority of the voters.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
I'm a baby boomer.

Speaker 4 (03:49):
I know a lot of people don't want to hear
that the baby boomers have either fled to Florida or
they've gone to heaven.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
We're not the majority anymore.

Speaker 4 (03:57):
They are, and there are plenty of your sons and
daughters and grandchildren who have common sense.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
We're getting them on board. They're not all in for
zor on Mandami.

Speaker 4 (04:07):
But cautionary, Larry, stop attacking his religion, stop attacking his culture.
Stick to the issues, and you'll get the millennials, you'll
get to.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
Gen Zis on our side.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
But all the other nonsense, who should drop out, stay
in his college transcript. All you do is make him
a martyr and a victim and get more of that
peer group to side with him.

Speaker 3 (04:29):
It's really fascinating, And I agree with what you just
said that you should stick to the issues. And I'll
tell you what the billionaires in this city are sticking
to the issues because he was supposed to have a
meeting with them and they wouldn't even show up. Half
of them weren't even there, including Jamie Diamond. And then
he goes down to Washington to meet with Democrats and
only the crazy showed up to talk to him. Some

(04:50):
of the biggest Democrats in the state won't even endorse them.
They're reluctant to endorse them. I really believe Zurim Mamdani,
and I thought that was the most shocking thing in
this poll. By the way, way how low he was
compared to other polls. I think Curtis he's losing support.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
Now, he's losing support.

Speaker 4 (05:07):
But Eric Adams is making his quest to become mayor
a lot easier with this corruption, With the fact that
the city has fallen into the abyss. Look around, walk
around the streets, the homeless, the emotionally disturbed, the empty storefronts.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
You can't blame that on Zorn Mandami.

Speaker 4 (05:26):
So what Eric Adams has to do is he's got
to determine and decide you're gonna.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
Run this race. You better admit to all the sins
you've committed.

Speaker 4 (05:34):
Donald Trump saved you or you'd be in jail with
Menendez and Cuomo, who is now like the political zombie
apologizing I should have run a better race. You better
start apologizing for slapping fannies and killing granny's because you'll
never have a chance to be mayor. You'll never have
a chance to be mayor until you admit I've been

(05:54):
slapping fannies and killing franny's and I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
That sounds like a bumper sticker. I have another caller,
and by the way, this one a lot of people
on talkback have said, and so it goes right to
your identity, right to your uniform. So you might have
even heard this before.

Speaker 6 (06:14):
Please tell Curtis not to wear the beret anymore. I
love Curtis and I hope he's going to be our
next mayor, but please, no more beret. People don't identify
with the Guardian Angels anymore.

Speaker 3 (06:28):
What do you think of that?

Speaker 4 (06:30):
First off, I wear the beret because in forty six
years of history of the Guardian Angels serving New York Is,
six have died in the line of duty, thirty two
have been seriously injured. And I have to tell your
caller respectfully when I go into neighborhoods. The only Republican
they've ever seen is Abraham Lincoln on a five dollar bill.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
They identify the beret.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
They accept me because of the service we've provided to
the inner city. You want to win this election, you
have to use everything available. I went to the wake
for Bernard Kerrick and Patterson at the cathedral. Rudy Giuliani
did not recognize me without my beret. He passed me twice.
Voddo passed me three times. They're not recognize me without

(07:13):
the red beret because you have to take your red
beret off in church. Please, if the red beret is
the reason that you won't vote for me, and you
vote for a guy with a five thousand dollars customized
suit who's the mayor and angew Cuomo smack and fannies
and killing Granny's, that's.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
Your reason for not voting for me.

Speaker 4 (07:32):
I'm going back into the subways where I campaign, where
people can identify me by that red beret.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
Curtis Leewa got a lot of fans on this station,
including the host, and we're all pulling for you. Hope
to talk to you again soon.

Speaker 4 (07:45):
Oh, just go to slee work for NYC dot Com
and you'll learn all about my campaign sleework for NYC
dot Com.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
Curtis leewa Republican candidate for New York City mayor. Up next,
Doctor Jon katz Nelson, founder in C of USA vein Clinics,
to talk about President Trump's vain affliction diagnosis. The doctor
is next.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
Back now to the WOR Saturday Morning Show with Larry Minty.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
Welcome back. President Trump is diagnosed with chronic venial insufficiency.
What exactly does that mean? We have one of the
world's leading experts to ask. Doctor Jan katz Nelson is
founder and CEO of US vein Clinics. Doctor, thanks so
much for spending some time with us today on this.

(08:34):
Thank you for going absolutely. Let's let's start out with
what he has and maybe you can explain it to me.

Speaker 7 (08:43):
So, President Trump has a very common condition called superficial
venus in sufficiency. But thirty percent of adults and this
age suffer from this condition and it's basically prom congestion
that caused by broken valve preventing return of venus use
blood towards the heart and the personal. Trump works very hard.

(09:07):
He tends a lot, he travels a lot on a
plane and it's all is not very thin, and it's
all exacerbate the problem with the legs. It's very common,
easy to diagnose, and I'm glad it's just a venus insufficiency,
not heart problem, not kidney problem. And the reason it's

(09:30):
good because it's easily treatable. The treatments for venus insufficiency
it's the ablatians, was sclaro, theapies and take ten to
fifteen minutes.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
They're actually all.

Speaker 7 (09:43):
Covered by insurance. And the science is very very well established.
And after the treatment is swelling, pain, night cramps.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
All disappears.

Speaker 7 (09:54):
What's important to know is if left untreated, it can
be very serious condition, even deadly. Even asymptomatic venus and
sufficiency could increase risk of DVT more than five times.

Speaker 3 (10:11):
How does someone know if they might have it?

Speaker 8 (10:14):
Ultra sound?

Speaker 7 (10:15):
First of all, it's because it's very common. You can
almost self diagnose. If someone has a bulging veins, big
roppie arcos, veins, swollen lags, discoloration, brownish red discoloration, think
skin nine crabs, ninety nine percent it will be veins.
Because it's very very common, and the perfect diagnosis is

(10:38):
just ultra sound. It's an inexpensive easy ultrasound basketb ulture sound.
The important thing it needs to be done in standing
position because we need to check how valves work against
the gravity. If ultra sound is done in a lying position,
you'll not see it. It needs to be in standing
and not every laboratory nose have to do which a

(11:00):
sound standing position. Usually just in the places specialized for
vein treatments, this study is done. So it's very important
to find clinics, dain treatment clinic that will help with this,
and then we can identify exactly what which veins are
have a broken valve and we can do the treatment

(11:21):
basically close those segments and redirect the blood flow into
the right veins instead of the wrong veins. That's and
it's done, and they will just sound guidance under we
exactly see what we're doing. And then the result and
outcome and improvement is extraordinary and immediate.

Speaker 2 (11:41):
Great.

Speaker 3 (11:41):
Will you keep saying it's treatable? Is it curable?

Speaker 7 (11:44):
Yes, yes, it's curable. So these veins, it's mechanical problem.
We fix this mechanical problem. Think like a flood in
the basement. You have a main pump and some pump,
and if valves between those pumps pipes are broken, whatever
goes up falls down.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
So we fix the.

Speaker 7 (12:04):
Problem with the broken bell and some pump just takes
the water up and and flood stops. Exactly the same
thing happens with the veins. When we remove these segments,
they take blood in the wrong opposite direction, and everything
goes in the right direction.

Speaker 2 (12:22):
Everything stops.

Speaker 7 (12:23):
No more swelling, no more pain. Because veins, you know,
bad circulation creates two types of problem. It's congestion and
poor nutrition. Poor nutrition leads to pain conjunction to swelling,
and because of stagnation, think like a pond against instead

(12:44):
of river, you have this DVT, you know, deep vein
trombosis because blood flow is sluggish and trump can happen.
That's the problem, biggest problem with the condition.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
And I would imagine your recommendation would if anyone thinks
that they may have this, have any of the symptoms
that you talked about a moment ago, they get right
in to see a doctor right and go to one
of the US vein clinics.

Speaker 7 (13:13):
We tried to see most of the patients within two
or three days because we have so many locations who
have almost on hundred seventy locations in the three States,
more than fourteen New York alogue. We work seven days
a week, long hours, just try to make sure that
people have access to care and then if left untreated

(13:34):
in many situations, disease progress.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
Towards the day.

Speaker 7 (13:37):
In Altar's Woods, between one to two percent of Medicare
patients have open woond from vein disease, which is terrible,
completely preventable, and completely treatable. So I think hopefully, I'm
sure President Trump will be fined and he will get
appropriate treatment, and hopefully many many thousands of listeners will

(14:01):
pay attention and help themselves by simply calling and second treatment.
That will be very successful, not doubt right.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
There's always some good that comes out of this and
people get to learn a lot, and I think a
lot of people that didn't know what you just told them,
no now, thank you so much for being with this.

Speaker 7 (14:17):
Doctor John, And I can only comment that President Trump
and Tayland that extraordinary thing, providing transparency and shading light
to health issues that no other president's ever done before.
So that's that's a very good trend.

Speaker 3 (14:38):
Yeah, very well said. Yeah, that's exactly right. Most hie them,
and he didn't. He came right out and said this,
and he might save a lot of people. Doctor Jan
katz Nelson, founder and CEO of us A Vain Clinics
over one hundred and sixty locations. You got forty right
here in New York alone, and they've been around for
forty years. By the way, you can learn more about

(15:00):
and maybe you can get an appointment if you need to.
USA Vainclinics dot com. Coming up next, County Executive Bruce
Blakeman goes the extra mile to assure that ICE officers
in NASA County are safe. We'll talk with Bruce. Still
to come on Saturday morning. Rich DeMuro from rich On
Tech tells us how to ease into AI. That's just

(15:24):
ahead now.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
More of the WOOR Saturday Morning Show and Larry Minte.

Speaker 3 (15:30):
Welcome back across the country. ICE officers are under attack,
but they have new protection in NASA County. Here's NASA
County Executive Bruce Blakeman. Thanks so much for coming on,
County Executive. I really appreciate your time. Tell us about
what you want to do in NASA County.

Speaker 8 (15:48):
Well, we passed a ban on wearing masks in public
about a year ago, primarily because we found that anti
Semites were engaging in harassing activity, violent activity against Jewish students,
against Jewish institutions, and we also found that criminals were

(16:10):
wearing masks to hide their identity, specifically when they're involved
in robberies, carjacking, shoplifting. Though we ban the wearing a
mask except for wearing a mask for religious reasons or
healthcare reasons or safety, so to clarify the safety aspect

(16:31):
of it. When we saw what was happening all around
the United States with these crazy people who are pro criminal,
anti cop, anti law enforcement, attacking ice agents and local
law enforcement because they were wearing masks, we sat in
Nassau County wait a second. Our ice agents that operate

(16:52):
in Nassau County, any federal or state or local law
enforcement agency, if they're involved in a specific operation and
pursuance so the rules and procedures of their department, such
as a raid on gang activity, things of that nature,
a drug deal, then they could wear a mask and

(17:13):
they would not be prosecuted. So basically, we are protecting
law enforcement. We've got their back here in Nassau County
and that's why we're the safest county in the United
States of America.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
Yeah, across the country, they are taking the pictures of
ICE officers, figuring out who they are, doxing them online,
telling them, telling people where they live, and their families
have been threatened. So identifying an ICE officer in a
raid is threatening their lives. This makes no sense.

Speaker 8 (17:46):
Now.

Speaker 3 (17:46):
I know that Corey Booker's bill is not going to
go anywhere because he's a Democrat and the Republicans have
the majority. And I think there's some sensible Democrats that
are also going to say no, that's going too far.
But if there were a federal law, what would happen
in NASA County. Would your law supersede the federal law

(18:06):
or the other way around.

Speaker 8 (18:08):
Well, first of all, I'm the chief executive officer, and
I set forth the rules and policies of a police department.
So I would fight that and I would allow our officers,
and I would allow federal, state, and local law enforcement
agencies under the guidelines that I just said that it's
for a specific operation, that it was related to some

(18:31):
kind of operation which could be highly dangerous, like dealing
with a drug cartel, dealing with gang activity, and basically
it's just common sense to let them cover themselves because,
as you said, Larry, there are these crazy people, anti American,
anti cop, people who are trying to out these law

(18:54):
enforcement officers. They tell them where they live, and these
people have families. Families are entitled to protection, and we're
going to protect them here in Nassau County. So if
they tried to do it, and I don't think they'd
be successful, but if they tried to do it, I
would fight at tooth and nil all the way to
the Supreme Court.

Speaker 3 (19:13):
I'll tell you what. I just don't understand the Democratic
Party right now being on the wrong side. It seems
of every single issue, including this one. I don't know.
I'll tell you what, Bruce. They seem lost right now.

Speaker 8 (19:27):
Well, they've become the Party of the pro criminal. Everything
they do is pro criminal. Here in New York State,
they pass laws that are pro criminal, like cashless bail,
like raise the age. Everything they do is to make
it easier for criminals to operate, and it makes it
more difficult on law enforcement and it hurts the victims.

(19:49):
You know, the type of crimes we're talking about. Some
of these ICE agents are going after people who've been
engaged in murder, rape, drug dealing. Here and now I
Saw County. Our drug overdoses opioid and Sentinel are down
forty percent. A because we have a great police department

(20:10):
that does a great job. And b because the open
border policy of Biden Harris is over and President Trump
is closing up the borders and therefore the Sentinel and
the other illegal drugs aren't getting to Nassau County like
they used to or other parts of the country. It's
just common sense. But they don't care about our kids

(20:32):
who are dying from overdose. They don't care about young
girls who are sold basically into slavery. They don't care
about carjackings, they don't care about shoplifting. They are very
pro criminal oriented and it's a disgrace. And that's why
they're failing miserably in elections because they're on the wrong

(20:56):
side of the of the issues.

Speaker 3 (20:58):
And their approval ratings like twenty percent. And something that's
not reported enough right now in the media is the
fact that crime is down in every major city. They
kind of ignore that, but it is all across since
these ice raids, you had Pam Bondy visiting recently. How
did that go well?

Speaker 8 (21:17):
Then? Great to get someone of her stature to Nassau
County for the opening of our new police training village,
which is the state of the art training village in
the United States, was something that we're very proud of.
She was very gracious, very kind. She spent a lot
of time with us, and she recognized the hard work

(21:38):
that we're doing here in Nassau County. We've probably got
one of the most sophisticated police departments in the United States,
and I would say, with some amount of bias and
pride that we have the best police department in the
United States, but also our Sheriff's department, our probation officers,
all working together, our civilian officers and employees all working

(21:59):
to again other to keep Nassau County safe. And that's
why we're the safest county in America. That's why Niche
Magazines said we're the most desirable place to live in
New York State.

Speaker 3 (22:08):
That's wonderful this training village. Describe it to me, Why
is this great for police work?

Speaker 8 (22:16):
So we have created a whole village so police could
train realistically in a real time setting. In a real place. So,
for instance, we have a house of worship that can
be one day a Christian church, the next day a
Muslim usque, the next day a Jewish synagogue, so police
officers can train under realistic conditions. We've got a gas station,

(22:41):
we've got a mini market, we've got a restaurant. We've
even got a train station with a train. We've got
a bank, we've got houses. So when our cops train,
they're training in situations and in a village that will
replicate real life. And we are not not only going
to train our police officers, but we've opened it up

(23:03):
to federal, state, and local law enforcement. We had the
FDI there, we had the Secret Service there, We even
had CIA, we had state police, we had police departments
from all over the country. They came there. They could
not believe what we were able to do. We've got
a great commissioner, pat Ryder. It was his vision and
I said, pedal to the metal, let's get this built.

(23:24):
We got it built in two and a half years,
and it's beautiful and it's going to save life. It's
gonna be safer for our cops, and it's gonna be
safer for our communities.

Speaker 3 (23:33):
Well, that sounds amazing, and my guess is you're going
to get visits from police departments all across the country
and they're going to want to do the same thing
in their states and cities. Bruce Blakeman, You're always ahead
of the game, NASA County Executive. Thanks so much, sir,
Thanks for spending time with us today.

Speaker 8 (23:47):
Thanks so much, Larry, enjoy your summer.

Speaker 3 (23:49):
Coming up next. Rich DeMuro from rich On Tech tells
us the fastest and best way to download and save
photos from our smartphones. Rich's neck.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
Here's Larry Minty with more of the woor Saturday Morning Show.

Speaker 3 (24:05):
Welcome back. Everybody is using AI now and more and more.
It's becoming available to everyday people just like us. Rich
DeMuro from rich On Tech has the latest AI apps
that are worth checking out. Good morning till you're rich.

Speaker 9 (24:20):
Good morning to you, Larry.

Speaker 3 (24:22):
Hey, listen, I think everybody is fascinated by AI, but
most people, and I'm including myself in this, we don't
really know how to use AI. I mean, I know
when a Google search, ai'll pop up at the top.
That's like the extent of my AI experience, at least
I think. But you have a couple of programs, you

(24:43):
have a couple of ways that people can use AI
in their lives.

Speaker 9 (24:47):
Yeah. Well, first off, I mean, look, before I get
into the specifics of some of the new features that
are coming along, play with AI. Just download the app
or go to chat dot com that'll bring you chat
ebt and just ask get some questions and just you
don't even have to sign in anymore, and you can
have a lot of fun with that and just ask
about history, ask about things on your mind, and just

(25:09):
see what the powerful nature of these AI you know,
systems can do. And it's really really cool. Like I've
got my chatchybt always on my side next to my
web browser and I just use it as sort of
like an everyday assistant to ask it questions, get opinions,
whatever I need and it just continues to get smarter.
And you use just CHATCHYBT. You know, there's Claude, there's Google, Gemini,

(25:33):
so Larry, you've got lots of options there.

Speaker 3 (25:34):
Yeah, that's great advice. That is great advice. I'm gonna
do that immediately. I think everybody should because AI is
coming and it's such a tremendous resources.

Speaker 9 (25:43):
I'm sure, you've found out absolutely. And let me tell
you about this new feature from Google Gemini. So this
is another brand of AI, kind of like CHATCHYBT. But
you can take a photo now, upload it to Google
Gemini and it will animate that photo in an eight
second video clip. So, for instance, I was in London
a couple of weeks ago. I took a picture of
the streets there. I uploaded that to Gemini. I said,

(26:06):
make a big, fluffy cute monster walking down the street.
Not only did it put a fluffy cute monster, giant
monster walking down the street, it also animated the cars,
the people walking, and it puts audio in as well.
So this is a brand new feature. It's kind of
the future of everything when it comes to video generation,
and it's really cool. You do have to be a

(26:27):
paid subscriber to try that tool, but Google often makes
them first available to the paid subscribers and then eventually
to everyone, So if you're not paying, stay tuned.

Speaker 3 (26:36):
And what about this new Microsoft AI.

Speaker 9 (26:39):
Yeah, so Microsoft has a new thing called Vision and
it's basically a way that we're seeing this big trend
of sharing your computer or your your phone screen or
what you're seeing with AI. So it can comment on things. So,
for instance, CHATCHBT and Gemini both have this feature where
you can have it look at your outfit and say, hey,

(27:00):
what can I match with this? Or does this look good?
Or whatever you want or you know, the other day,
I was trying to fix something with my sprinkler system
and I aimed Google Gemini at it the camera and
I said, hey, tell me what's wrong here? And I said, oh,
that valves turned off. It should be turned on. And
so again, it's just like the smartest human being or
the smartest thing you've ever experienced as a companion. So anyway,

(27:22):
Microsoft is doing this thing called Desktop Share where if
you're stumped on something or you just need help on something,
you can share your screen with AI and it can
give you inputs in real time. So if you're working
on spreadsheet, doing something creative, playing a game, and you're stuck,
you can just ask AI for help.

Speaker 3 (27:39):
That is incredible. I had no idea I could do
all that. And let's switch topics for a second, because
you're constantly telling us about new phones coming out, and
there's a new phone coming out by Google.

Speaker 9 (27:52):
Yeah, so Google makes the pixel phones. If you can
believe it. They are on the Pixel ten and they
just set a date for their next launch, which is
August twentieth in New York City in Brooklyn, which is
funny because this is exactly where the Samsung launch was
just a couple of weeks ago, and so I don't
know why they picked the same area, but they did.

(28:13):
And we're expecting to see a bunch of new phones
from Google, all the Pixel phones, including their foldable, and
their foldable is supposed to get dust resistance, which I
know sounds silly, but back when foldables were new, if
you've got like a speck of dust in the hinge,
it would ruin the entire screen. So these things just
continue to get better. And of course, as we just

(28:33):
spoke about, Google is really big into AI, so we'll
probably see some new AI capabilities. And this is all
a prelude to the you know, the elephant in the room,
which is Apple expected to come out with the iPhone
seventeen of course in September. So all these tech companies
have shifted their phone launches to be before Apple in

(28:54):
an attempt to tempt you to get their phone before
Apple reveals there.

Speaker 3 (28:57):
So I have Apple, and I am always tempted to
get the new phone. But you don't need to get
every new iteration, do you Like I have the sixteen,
I don't have to get the seventeen. It can't be
that big of an improvement.

Speaker 9 (29:11):
No, Well, look, it's Apple's job to convince you that
you need the new phone by coming out with compelling
new features. And sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. Like,
for instance, when touch id came out, when face ID
came out, When you know, those types of like transformative
features came out, people wanted to upgrade. Now phones are
mostly iterative, and you know most people are keeping them

(29:33):
for up to thirty nine months before they change to
a new phone. So you definitely don't need to get
a new phone. But then again, I don't know what
Apple's gonna do with the iPhone seventeen. If they come
out with a holographic screen.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
Sure, I'm gonna ask you quickly. Because my wife has
this problem. She refuses to download Eddie pictures because she's
afraid she's going to lose them. How do you go
from a smartphone to a flash drive?

Speaker 9 (29:56):
Okay, I just did a couple of Instagram videos about
this because I get so many questions about this, So
check out my instagram at rich on Tech. You need
a flash drive. I use one from PNY. It's super fast,
it can hold up to two terabytes and basically you
plug that into the bottom of your phone. You open
up your photos app on iPhone and basically select the

(30:18):
photos that you want and you press that little share
button and there's an option that says export unmodified originals
that will copy your photos right to that flash drive.
You can now transfer them to a computer or just
store them there. On Samsung, it's even easier. Just open
up my files app and tap your images. You can
select all and you can transfer them as well.

Speaker 2 (30:40):
So really easy.

Speaker 9 (30:41):
And a lot of these questions, by the way, Larry,
come from the radio show. People email me and I say, hm,
let me see how to do that, and I figure
it out and now I share it with everyone and.

Speaker 3 (30:49):
You can get those answers at rich on Tech, on Instagram,
rich Demiro, thank you so much. Rich On Tech has
heard Sunday Nights from eight to eleven on wr That
