Hey, the bird show.

Jeff opened up a whole new world for me. God, this is so awesome. Finally. It's going to get better, dude. Specifically, there's one client, and he's a friend also. This is the healthy trim dude, Matthew. It's kind of an old school dude, and he won't text. And all he does is calls and leaves voicemail messages. And he's one of those dudes. Oh, I don't like that. And he's not a quick voicemail guy.

0:24.3

He is going to tell you what is going on in every aspect of his day all day long before he gets to the business. So, you know, first of all, voicemail to me is pain in the ass now. Yeah, because first of all, it's like, press one to hear the message.

0:38.4

Well, what else do I want to do?

0:39.5

I'm calling voicemail.

0:40.6

Like, I don't know.

0:42.0

And then, like, it's like, I don't know.

0:44.1

It just, it takes way too long.

0:45.4

It's way too annoying.

0:46.2

And then to have to scroll through all your saved messages to get to the new ones as a pain

could just hit a button and you could individually listen to that voicemail.

1:06.3

See, that would be cool.

1:07.5

That is awesome.

1:08.2

This to me is even better, though.

1:10.0

Jeff opened up my world to phone tag.com. This is awesome. But it's better. Don't plug phone tag yet because I can save you money. Okay. Because I've got it better. But basically what it does is it takes over. It's a separate voicemail box and you set up your phone so all of your calls go to this new voicemail box. Okay. And then what this new voice, what this voicemail box says is it translates. And this works if you have a BlackBerry or an iPhone or any device that receives emails. It transcribes, not translate, transcribes your voicemails into text that you can read and emails them to you. Oh, that's great. So every time this dude leaves a long old message, it's just an email.

1:47.1

Like, it can read it or text message or whatever. And then that way you can just delete the voicemail and call him back, but you know exactly what the message is about. You don't even delete the voicemail. You don't even get it. You don't even get it? There he is right now. I know you're talking about me on the radio.

1:59.1

Is that really your phone?
