| 0:06.8 | DeFilippo discussing the finer points of what went wrong on the internet and who's to blame. |
| 0:11.4 | Welcome to Grumpy Old Geeks, the podcast where we channel our inner |
| 0:19.4 | curmudgeon and discuss all things tech and pop culture. I'm Jason DeFilippo and I'm Brian Schultmeister and I'm wondering if chat GPT did a rewrite of our intro. |
| 0:28.4 | Yes they did, yes they did, they did that last week when Dave was here. |
| 0:31.9 | Okay, I didn't listen to that one and I liked it so much I kept it nice. |
| 0:37.0 | I thought it was pretty good. Very good, very good. |
| 0:39.6 | We got a little follow up here from Kristen. I used to listen to your podcast within the Missouri |
| 0:44.3 | correction systems whereas I became a huge fan. However, my question is why isn't your particular show available on Pandora radio's podcast feature? |
| 0:53.3 | I would assume your crowd base would grow significantly since it's one of the highest music platforms. |
| 0:58.3 | I dislike having to download other software to listen to you guys and I really do miss your show greatly. |
| 1:02.8 | Thank you for all the laughter and updated tech news. |

| 1:21.3 | So I went ahead and I submitted our show last night and we are now on Pandora. |
| 1:25.3 | It reputus on Stitcher as well. Stitcher actually has all of the episodes but for some reason Pandora, which is probably why it is not the biggest listener out there. |
| 1:34.8 | I only cherry picked like 470 of our episodes and so the latest ones aren't out there. |
| 1:40.8 | So if you'd like to Kristen, please write to Pandora and say, Hey, go get the rest of the episodes because they got our SS feed. They should be able to get it. |
| 1:49.8 | So I did my due diligence. It's you're welcome. That's all I can do. I've done what I can. |
| 1:54.8 | All right. Good for us. Yeah. I can't wait to see our number skyrocket. |
| 1:59.3 | I know. I know. We're going to be pulling people away from Spotify. I'll 12 of them. |
| 2:05.3 | And since we have been since you've been gone, we've been talking about a lot of AI stuff. |
