I love it. It's been a great time, short trip, but
enjoyed it.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
Okay, eighteen years ago today, this one thing premiered that
we use every single day, every day, every day multiple
I'm looking at it right now. It doesn't always hold
a charge, but when you get a new one, it
does hold a charge. And that is none other than
the iPhone, which is wild to think about.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
Crazy.

Speaker 2 (00:42):

To bring the microphone to your mouth and talk louder.
I warned you about this, Max, I said, I'm going
to shut your mic off if you don't talk louder.
He's got It's like talking to a mouse. We started
this thing at four gigs, in eight gigs, and now
mine has to have at least two hundred and plus.
I just bought the iPhone sixteen I'm looking at the
sixteen one came out eighteen years ago, which means that

(01:15):
almost pretty much every year we've gotten a new iPhone. Also,
the old one had a two megapixel camera, two megapixels
Safari web browser. Are you a Safari? You use Safari?
I do? I'm Google all the way, baby, you know
it's I think Android gets a bad rap. I was

(01:36):
an Android user for a hot second in my life,
and everyone knows that the camera and the Android is better.
I use a lot of Google products on my iPhone, Gmail,
Google Maps.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
You use Apple Maps, don't you? Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:48):
I I can't.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
I use Ways. I'm a ways guy guy.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
I would say it on Google Photos. I tend to
use a lot and built in iPod functionality. Now it's
all wireless. It was also the error two when the
iPhone would give you the charger, the charging brick, and
a pair of headphones. Yeah, and now they give you

(02:14):
nothing a prayer, not even they're like you need us,
we don't need you. Do you remember the first iPhone
that you had and what number you came out of?

Speaker 1 (02:23):
The three gs in middle school? I think I made
that transition from from Android to iPhone three gs.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
I was I can't even remember what number, but I
do remember the back of it was blue. When they
started adding adding colors, I see was it was?

Speaker 1 (02:42):
How did you know that color? Because I had the
baby blue.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
That's right, the baby blue iPhone five C that was
one of my favorites. I just graduated from the iPhone
twelve Mini to upgrade to the sixteen.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
Yeah, that's a that's a huge upgrade.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
And uh, you know, and it took about one thousand
dollars out of my bank account.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
That just shows the quality though how long they lost
If you really take care of it. I think I
had my XR for six years, five years. Truly take
care of that phone.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
It'll last eighteen years ago today, we I mean, life
was changed and we knew it at two hundred and
seventy thousand units. By the way, it was the first one.
So I couldn't even tell you how many iPhones are
being purchased now, but I do know that anytime I
go into the mall, they try to fix it for me.
