Thank you for listening to Kim Commando today.

All right.

I always like to begin with something super interesting.

And how much do you think a check, $175 check written by Steve Jobs is worth today?

Okay, it's worth more than $175, by the way.

The reason why I bring this up is that it's now being auctioned off,

but we have to go back in history just a little bit. It's the year of Apple's founding,

and it has Apple's first ever address on it, the location of an answering service. Yes, do you

remember those? Anybody, anybody? And it was also a mail drop for Apple when Steve Jobs was working out of his mom and dad's garage. And the check's made out to Crampton, Remke, and Miller. That's a management firm that provided a whole bunch of consulting services to tech companies in the mid-70s. And yes, it has Steve Jobs' official autograph signature on the check. It's very, very rare. So how much do you think this check is going to go for? What do you think, Matt? I don't know, $200,000. What do you think, Al? I was going lower. I was going to say $25. Right now, it's still being auctioned off, and it's about $63,000. Okay, I went too high. It went too high. That's right. You know, some say that Steve Jobs, he just died way too young. I mean, he wasn't in his prime. Now, others say it was simply a homage to Apple's attitude towards battery life. Oh. Too soon? Too bad? Soon. Sorry about that.

Hey, listen, it's Friday, and that means it's time for another wonderful episode of Kim

Commando today. Now, this is not the Kim Commando show that I host Monday through Friday

on, you know the drill, on over 425 top stations, and then, of course, you can hear it

on American Forces Network Radio, which I think is so cool that it's 375,000 American servicemen and women in 175 different

countries and 200 ships at sea. I just find that astounding. Get the Kim Commando show.

Because this is the Friday show. It's electrifying. It's magnificent. And joining me, as

always, our two powerhouses over at commando.com and also part of the whole Commando 2.0 newsletter realm.

First up, we have our amazing content queen, Ali Seligman. Hi there, Ali. What's on with you today?

and make sure that you don't get scammed because QR code scams are going crazy right now. I'm also

going to share what I think is the most underrated feature in your browser, and I bet you're not

using it. And how about you, our magnificent millennial and our very own Internet scout, Matt, Hugh are you going to pass from him? You know, I'm going to go with good news, Matt. I got a heartwarming story about social media as well as how to change the name of your router to protect yourself. And I'm going to talk to you about speed running. Now, you don't know what that is, but I'll tell you all about it. Hmm. What's it called? Speed running. Speed running. And it doesn't involve walking. It does not. Nope. Does? No, it does not. Not at all. Okay. All right. Wait, that's a good tease, Matt. Even I'm gonna hang around for that.
