0:06.8

DeFilippo discussing the finer points of what went wrong in the internet and who's to blame.

Welcome to Grumpy old geeks episode 196. I am Jason DeFilippo. And I'm

0:20.6

Brian Schultmeister. Guten Tag, Hey Brian. Good morning Jason. How are you? I'm doing okay.

0:26.7

Considering I almost burnt down my house last night, then I brained myself on the stairs,

going to do laundry this morning and landed on my back and can barely sit here anymore.

0:34.9

It's been a fun two days, but you're you are not the most graceful of man.

0:38.6

1:30.9

reminder that we are now on the podcast one network. So we've killed our old app. So if you were

1:36.7

using the Grumpy old geeks app to get your show, which means you're probably not hearing this anyway

1:41.6

because we haven't updated it in a friend of the show Trent who wrote it pulled it from the store.

1:46.0

So if you want to use an app to listen to us either Android or iOS, go to podcast1.com and you
