To the ladies who listen to this podcast, who are indeed, and lest we not forget, the most gorgeous and sexy ladies in the United Kingdom. I'm here as always with Jake Farrell. You mentioned that you can, all the people listening over on Spotify, but of course now people can watch on Spotify as well. Because all of our episodes are going up there with video attached, which I do like to think of people just kind of like wandering around, going for a walk or something to aid their mental health. And then when we say, usually we'd say, oh, if you're listening, we're watching this clip. Now they can pull it out, ruin their mental health. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's the, what an exciting development. More phone stuff. Fuck here. Now, I was with someone the other day who has that thing on their phone where it's black and white. Yes. Have you heard about that? that if you want to quit your phone, and by the way, if you're listening to the screen rocked podcast,

a podcast largely about social media, wouldn't recommend it. But yeah, so if you make your phone black and white, get rid of all the color, then all the clever thing that the app developers do to make, you know, the sort of nice colours they use to hook you. Yeah. Gone. Gone. And then you apparently use your phone less. Right. I tried that once. Yes. I was so discombobulated by it that was nearly run over. I was so confused. By Alana. By my missus, yeah. She was so few. I walked out of what I was doing, and it was around here, it was near Oxygen.

I walked out of what I was doing.

Yeah.

And I was like, I was like, you know, I had like maps on my phone telling me where I need to go. I was like, huh? Huh? Huh? What? And then, do, do. I was like, no, probably easier just be addicted to the phone, isn't it?

Safer.

Yeah, that's like a kind, probably easier just be addicted to the phone, isn't it? Safer.

Yeah, that's like a kind of like a message somehow from the phone companies. Like, do you want to be run over? Well, then turn your phone black and white. If you want to have a normal life and not be a freak, then carry on as well. There's lots of those little like self-optimization hacks with phone usage and stuff, isn't it? It's an interesting way because we've been backed into a corner really because like i've thought about doing the flip phone i've thought about glowing doing the flip phone you just can't do it banking maps stuff no it's not

doable anymore it's also can we all stop pretending they're not really good do you know what i mean it's

oh god yeah the phone's ruined my life.

Yeah, it's also really good.

Do you reckon?

Yeah, yeah.

I could do fucking, mate.

Shall I show you some of the stuff I can.

It sounds like I work at Carphone Warehouse.

Jacob's still got that app from like the iPhone 3 where you could like drink it and it would be like a pint going.
