You're going to go. Hey I'm Jenny Yurich and welcome to the 1000 Hours Outside Podcast. I have Anne Marie with me today from GAB Wireless and super

excited because we absolutely adore our GAB phone. I almost picked up my own because it looks so much like my own, but this is not a smartphone that looks like a smartphone.

It is the perfect first phone for kids and also I think a great phone for adults and we're going to be talking about just phone usage today.

Gabs got an awesome smart watch so we're going to be talking about all sorts of things today technology and kids and so thrilled to have Ann Marie here.

Could you tell us what you do at GAB? sort of how you ended up there? What was your journey to where you're at right now?

Absolutely.

Well, thanks for having me.

I am a mother of four, first, my kids range in ages from six to 16. So we are in the trenches of kids and

tech and figuring parenting out and so I actually found Gab wireless because I was looking for an option for my own son, my oldest child was asking for the iPhone and I knew I didn't want to hand one over but I thought well perhaps if there was a phone with parental controls maybe we could do that and so we gave them an iPhone that did have parental controls, but what we found just even a couple months in is that we we lost the battle of him being behind the screen.

And so I did some research, found GAB,

we gave him the GAB phone, and it changed our family forever.

And I came knocking on GAB's door and said,

I believe in this product so much that I'd very much like to be a part of what you're doing.

So that's how I found Gab, I've been there a year, I handle public public relations and really I just talked to parents

about different and better options and GAB being that face tech solution for their

family yeah I love that I love simple things that can change our life and what a statement about phone and a technology.

I'm going to throw a little disclaimer out there. I think that some of the topics we talk about may be a little

sensitive. So if you have little kids around, this might be a good one to

read on the transcript or throw some headphones on. Because I think a

little bit of delicate will be, we'll dance around it, but there might think a little bit of delicate will be well dance around it but there might be a little bit more

adult topics in this conversation because

that's kind of where we're at right with technology.
