(00:01):
Oh yeah, we did it againtwo hours. What matters? Minde MICHAELA,
Maria and Michaela today and that flewby really did, didn't it?
Some really impactful conversations. We willshare them online. I will share them
online this week on Facebook if youmiss some of the conversations we had today.
We were laughing because we were gettingready to post some pictures to promote

(00:23):
the show to what I'm still callingTwitter? But do we cash Twitter?
I think it's it's uh, technicallywhat X? It just popped up on
my phone, you know the app. There's this you know, black X.
That's that's there. And I wastelling Michaela that I keep hitting my
waist button because that's blue, andso trying to do that has been tough.

(00:48):
I'm wondering. I mean, Ithink I'm not struggling to use Twitter
necessarily yet or X or whatever itis. But do you feel people might
think it's weird to be using X? And do you think that this this
CEO, mister Musk can be talkedinto going back to what people have known

(01:11):
now for the almost what fifteen sixteenseventeen years? Yeah, I think people
will always call it Twitter always.Yes, Um, I don't. I
don't know if the X brand will, you know, we'll take flight.

(01:32):
You did there. I like whatyou did there a lot, but but
I still use it. Do youuse it as much? I feel like
maybe I'm using it a little tinybit less. But I cannot get into
threads. This Instagram thing. Ican't get into it all right, So
now I just saw that this morning. Okay, well you're you've had a
lot going on, yes, Sowhat is the what's threads? So mister

(01:53):
Zuckerberg said, you know what,I want an option that is not Twitter,
right, and so he's taking Instagramand school. You can connect your
Instagram account to threads, which isbasically Twitter, and but you're supposed to
be able to have a quote unquotebetter conversation there than on Twitter because people
think Twitter has become highly politicized andyou can't have good information or information.

(02:15):
You can't get good information out there. I don't agree with that completely.
It is political on Twitter, butat the same time, I feel like
it's a place for your voice.I don't know, well, and then
there's there's so many Now I've gotthread x, Instagram, Snapchat or what
else? What do their Facebook?What do you choose that we cannot serve
all of these social media masters.So that's the problem. Um, I

(02:39):
don't do Snapchat, but you probablydon't. I don't snapchat, don't do
snapchat. I would think maybe youmight because of your son. Yeah,
no, he does Snapchat. Theirgeneration loves it, right. Um.
And then there's something too that's likeand I can't remember what it's called,
but you take a picture right thenand there. It's only up for a
little bit and then it's gone.Right. Yes, I know exactly what
