Hey, it's Kim Commando today, your daily podcast to keep you up to date with all things digital and beyond.

And I'd love to have you be a part of our podcast.

You can make an appointment to speak with me.

Just head over to commando.com.

And on the top right, there's a button that says email Kim, fill that out, and that's it.

Have you heard of something called a sludge video?

Sludge video.

I didn't know what it was.

Maddie, who's one of our show producers here, she came to me the other day.

She goes, do you know what a sludge video is?

I'm like, I have no idea.

She said, it is blowing up TikTok, okay?

A sludge video looks like this.

It's split screen videos that pair a couple of unrelated videos at once.

So instead of just watching one video, you could be watching like four videos or just two

videos. So like you'd be watching like some guy tell you how to fry an egg on the left hand

side while the right hand side you're watching the Sopranos at the same time.

And apparently Gen Z is totally hooked on it. I don't know if I could do that. Could you do that?

I'm not sure. Speaking of Gen Z, I was going to tell my Gen Z son, Ian, a joke about social security,

but I didn't because he's probably not going to get it. Oh, you get that right.

Hey, listen, you're about ready to get more tech smarts because every single thing is now a tech thing.

And if you're the first time joining us, a warm welcome.
