Welcome to Bits Bytes Beyond, your go-to podcast for everything gaming, technology, firearms and cars. I'm Audro, your tech geek and gaming enthusiast.

Speaker 2: 0:11

And I'm Trippie, bringing the horsepower, firepower and a healthy dose of skepticism to the conversation.

Speaker 1: 0:17

From the virtual battlefields to the firing range, and from the hottest cars to cutting edge tech, we've got it all covered.

Speaker 2: 0:24

So buckle up, lock and load and let's dive into the world of Bits, bytes and Beyond. So, mike, what's been catching your eye this week?

Speaker 1: 0:39

I'll tell you what man I've been really kind of following this hurricane that's coming towards Florida. I mean it's been interesting to me having a double hurricane, I mean in a two-week span. A one-week span is pretty crazy. But I've been thinking about it from like a technology standpoint too. You know me, techie. Um, I've been thinking about the cell towers, starlink, all that type of shit lately and you know, like north carolina lost cell signal for like several days. I mean nobody could contact anybody in the area, nobody could call 911, anything like that yeah so I'm interested to see what's going to happen again with this hurricane coming up.

Speaker 1: 1:19

But in florida or, uh, north carolina, there was like storm chasers coming in and dropping Starlink in in like smaller towns so people could get cellular not cellular service but Internet service so they could contact their loved ones and things like that, let them know they're OK and then find information and resources to get the help they need, resources to get the help they need.

Speaker 1: 1:48

But I was thinking I'm like man, you know, t-mobile is like partnered up with starlink. Now they're, I guess the newer phones are supposed to have a starlink connectivity so even if you're off the grid or way out in the forest, you're going to be able to get starlink connectivity. Uh, in an emergency, kind of like apple did with their satellite connection, if you're out in a remote location with no cell signal, you can still text like through satellite emergency services, things like that. But starlink's supposed to be linking up with t-mobile. And I'm like you know, we need to get like satellite internet and satellite connectivity to a lot of these remote cell sites so in these events we still have coverage. I mean, it's it's crucial to have connectivity these days oh no, I agree.

Speaker 2: 2:34

It'll definitely help too with like uh, not just natural disaster victims either, but think of, like park rangers you know somebody goes missing, you know they're out hiking, oh well, bam I, I still have cell service out, literally in the middle of nowhere not only that, but you got mobile starlink.

Speaker 1: 2:52

Now putting that on on park ranger vehicles, things like that. I saw the navy is just signed a contract with starlink and they're testing it on a bunch of naval ships, and it's not specifically starlink but it's other satellite providers too. So where starlink does have that lapse, they still have a backup connectivity to, like you know, some other internet provider that does satellite. I don't know who specifically, but you know right it's uh.

Speaker 1: 3:22

It's pretty interesting to see how satellite internet's changed in the the last five years. I mean it used to be. You could get pretty decent download speeds, but the latency was was awful, and now you can have high speed satellite internet and practically game on it in most circumstances, depending on what you're playing.

Speaker 2: 3:44

But uh, I had said I had satellite internet for a little bit and the latency was like over a thousand milliseconds, like it was oh yeah, you couldn't, yeah, you couldn't do anything on it no, no, especially like a shooting game or anything.

Speaker 1: 4:00

Yeah, there's no way you could do that oh yeah and it was starlink, I mean in most circumstances I for the people I've talked to it. You have pretty decent latency, you know like 50, 60, 70 milliseconds, but it's, it's not anything unbearable played on wars, for sure, for sure but yeah, yeah, that's not bad what's been uh new with you, man?

Speaker 2: 4:24

Oh, not much, Just seeing what the government's trying to do. And you know, firearms are always a big question when it comes to government, especially with the election coming up.

Speaker 1: 4:38

Did you see Elon Musk was at a Trump rally and was like you know? They're trying to take your second amendment away. They're trying to take away your right to vote. Blah, blah, blah. But they went back to the assassination site and they had like bulletproof windows all the way around them or glass all the way around them. I was like, okay, we're just going for it.

Speaker 2: 5:00

Now I see well, there's been three attempts on him now oh yeah, I know, I know it's, it's.

Speaker 1: 5:08

I'm glad they're finally stepping up security.

Speaker 2: 5:10

But yeah, of course you know when, when you talk about politics and the election, not only do guns come up, but so do borders. You know border crossings, and with speaking of border crossings, here the country of Mexico is trying to sue Smith Wesson firearms.

Speaker 1: 5:36

Okay.

Speaker 2: 5:37

Why they're trying to sue them.

Speaker 1: 5:43

Basically because Smith Wesson is selling firearms to cartel related people okay which them and everybody interesting I mean smith and wesson directly maybe, but them and everybody else probably exactly like.

Speaker 2: 6:02

Like you know, we back to I think it was Remington was like one of the original lawsuits where it's like oh my God, your gun killed somebody. We're going to sue you for everything you have. Yeah, you know, and it's just age old questions. Guns don't kill people, people kill.

Speaker 1: 6:17

That's what I was just thinking let's be honest.

Speaker 2: 6:19

Yeah, you know.

Speaker 1: 6:37

But I just thought it was quite interesting to see another country suing a business in the US, especially a firearms manufacturer.

Speaker 2: 6:43

Yeah, I don't know how well that'll go. We'll see. Yeah, I have to agree. I don't think the Supreme Court has accepted it, but they're at least hearing the case and going to decide whether or not they'll allow it to go through.

Speaker 1: 7:00

Yeah, you see that now they have vending machines for for ammunition and grocery stores. I'm surprised they allowed it to happen. I saw that it was like southern states only. I don't know which state specifically, but I mean that had never happened in the north no um but it makes me wonder do you just walk up with your you know, with cash or your card and just buy a box of ammunition, or do you have to, like, scan your government id or or like, what's the?

Speaker 2: 7:35

what's the deal there the video I did see of it. You you do have to verify your identification with a state-issued ID, your driver's license, et cetera, so at least they do have that safety side in it. It's no different than what you would buy at the counter from a gun store.

Speaker 1: 7:54

What's stopping 13-year-old me from grabbing my dad's driver's license?

Speaker 2: 8:01

So what's actually stopping you is? I believe the machines actually have a web camera in them and they verify the person standing there against the id that makes sense. That makes sense and they have to have some kind of safeguard there?

Speaker 2: 8:17

exactly like that was probably their whole first thought on that is well, some kids just gonna steal their, going to steal their parent's ID, right. What I'm curious to see is if the pricing will be higher than what you would buy it in a gun store to facilitate the purchase of the vending machine itself, the Internet connection to run it and so on.

Speaker 1: 8:46

Well, I mean, I guess a lot of it depends on what ammunition is being sold. You know, in most grocery stores around here you can only purchase rifle ammunition for typically hunting or target. You can't pick purchase. You know, I don't think they had 22 the last time I was there right so yeah, I think most of them anymore just honestly sell shotgun shells. Yeah, maybe.

Speaker 2: 9:11

And some of the stores that used to sell it around here just don't even sell them anymore.

Speaker 1: 9:16

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 9:18

I mean, that's always another side of it too.

Speaker 1: 9:22

I don't know, I'm all for it.

Speaker 2: 9:24

Yeah, I'd love to have a vending machine right there.

Speaker 1: 9:29

That would be pretty sweet. I mean, around here we have gun shops in every town.

Speaker 2: 9:34

Yeah. You can find ammunition pretty easy Plus you can order it online. Right? Did you see that H&K Firearms, Heckler Koch, are coming to the US?

Speaker 1: 9:52

I saw something about it. I saw a short article on my Google News feed, or something.

Speaker 2: 10:00

Obviously, their firearms are already sold in the US. They are a German firearm manufacturer but they actually are going to have a design manufacturing, basically an entire setup in the U? S now to help serve customers, which H and K is a phenomenal company. They have a bunch of military contracts. So you know, thinking, thinking from that side, you know that'll be beneficial to be able to have them right here in the us should bring prices down hopefully that would be awesome, but I doubt it.

Speaker 2: 10:42

I mean h and k's are. I mean they're pretty expensive to begin with. They are a top tier manufacturer. You know they make guns like the MP7, so it's like you know those are used widely in the like special forces section close quarter stuff typically size yeah close quarter exactly, so it'll be interesting to see what ends up actually coming of them coming to the us fully yeah, interesting for sure.

Speaker 1: 11:17

Changing it up to the gaming side of things a little bit uh, tencent, a chinese game developer, is considering buying ubisoft. Um, tencent is primarily a mobile game developer and they've been in mobile games for a long time. I don't think they're really into pc games at all. Um, do you know drew? That I don't um yeah, I'm not sure my knowledge.

Speaker 2: 11:42

It was only mobile games. It's a Chinese company.

Speaker 1: 11:46

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 11:48

But as far as where all they go, I honestly don't know.

Speaker 1: 11:52

I mean Ubisoft's got a huge game selection, so I could foresee Tencent buying them and porting a lot of games to mobile, because mobile games I mean it's a niche market, but there's a market there for sure, especially marketed right.

Speaker 2: 12:10

Just a quick search of Tencent. It's actually one of the world's largest companies in the video game industry, based on equity investment.

Speaker 1: 12:22

I'm thinking that Tencent owns TikTok. Now I could be wrong.

Speaker 2: 12:31

A very, very good possibility.

Speaker 1: 12:34

I'm going to see.

Speaker 2: 12:36

Obviously, like I said, I don't know much about them.

Speaker 1: 12:41

Oh, so ByteDance was in talks with Tencent. Oh okay, Tencent actually is the developer of clash of clans tencent is the developer. Okay, yeah, yeah, that makes sense. I mean, yeah, yeah so many of those games are just a spin-off of another and just tiny little indie developers ripping off somebody else's game but, I I really, when it comes to mobile games, I really like um, like the idle clicker games.

Speaker 2: 13:13

I don't know why I like them, but um pretty much every single one of those you download is yeah, every, every single one of those you download is literally the same thing, with just a different graphic over it yeah, some different theme, different style, anything to change it up, just enough to prevent the copyright.

Speaker 1: 13:33

But yeah, speaking of mobile games, like three ea devs just broke off from ea because the ea is like shutting down their mobile games, so they're creating a new studio called like 3000s and the 3000s I believe it was double check it yeah, 3000s. So they yeah, I guess they're like mainly racing game developers, so I used to get into racing games back on mobile. I haven't played a racing game on mobile in quite a while but, to be fair, I really don't play many mobile games Other than like Idle Flickers.

Speaker 2: 14:16

Yeah same, I used to be really big into like CSR racing. I played the crap out of that.

Speaker 1: 14:25

I've never played that.

Speaker 2: 14:27

I've always had a little little hard-on for those side-scroller drag racing games. You remember Drag Racer V2, the web browser one.

Speaker 1: 14:41

Yes.

Speaker 2: 14:42

I played a lot of those types of games.

Speaker 2: 14:45

Yeah, I loved those games love, especially in school when I was supposed to be working, but you know I was playing games for me, but yeah yeah, I, I've always been big into racing games, um, kind of leaning towards that automotive side, uh, automotive side, uh, audi matrix headlights cool right, have you heard? Yeah, yeah, I've seen them, I saw, I saw a video the other day. These things are wild. Um. So for the, the people that don't know, audi has developed this headlight that, instead of being like one halogen bulb that just goes from a dim to a bright, their headlights are actually comprised of a bunch of these bulbs. I think they might even be LED or something like that.

Speaker 2: 15:34

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they're LED they have a series of sensors in the front of the car and basically it detects other vehicles, whether they're in front of you or in oncoming traffic other vehicles, whether they're in front of you or in oncoming traffic and it actually disables these individual headlight beams so they don't get blinded by your headlights. So you can basically leave your headlights on bright and the car will automatically shut off the LED.

Speaker 1: 16:01

That's in that driver's view yeah, and while keeping the rest of the road, you know, fully lit lit up yeah, it's, it's great, it's. It's about time we need that on every car. That should be standard. Yeah, I can't tell you how many times I bright people because I forget they're even on yep, on my car I have a lot of automatic uh high beams and it it turns them off. When a car comes you know oncoming car is coming it turns off the high beams for me.

Speaker 2: 16:32

So most of the time, yeah, it does a pretty good job of getting it, but it also gets like reflections off the signs and stuff right, the civic has the same thing, but I I have mine shut off, and God, I love my Hondas, I do. But they really need to get a little bit better in the engineering section of how stuff is turned on and off. So to turn it on and off, you have to flash your brights, that's it. You just flash your brights, that's it. You just flash your brights. So, as everybody knows, sometimes when your brights are on and you pull your stock back to shut up, shut your brights off, sometimes you go a little too far and it clicks back the other way yeah and then I just immediately bright the car that I was just trying to dim my lights yeah, so yeah

Speaker 1: 17:24

that's why I manually turn on my high beams, I push the stock back and I can just lightly tap it and it'll it'll fall forward. But, like I said, if there's a car coming, it turns them off for me, so I don't mind it. Um, yeah, I, at least I haven't, I, but I also don't don't do a ton of night driving or dark driving.

Speaker 2: 17:46

See, I leave for work real early in the morning, so it's almost always dark on my way to work, With suns coming up by the time I'm leaving typically. Lucky.

Speaker 1: 17:55

Or the sun's up in the summertime or any, yeah.

Speaker 2: 17:59

Lucky.

Speaker 1: 18:00

Right now, though, it's like.

Speaker 2: 18:02

I go to work in dark and I feel like I come home in the dark, yeah.

Speaker 1: 18:07

Yeah, I know the feeling there. But for those of my techie and cybersecurity-interested folks, Cloudflare just thwarted the largest-ever DDOS attack denial of service for those who aren't techie which basically means that somebody sends a lot of information and tries to prevent the good traffic from going through your network so you can't access the internet. Cloudflare thwarted 3.8 terabits per second. That is an insane amount of traffic. And to put it in packets per second, 2.14 billion packets per second. Your standard home, a microsoft azure customer located in asia. So I'm sure there was some political stuff going on behind that, but that's crazy deep state hacking maybe, but you know.

Speaker 1: 19:25

So for adidas attack you've got a. It's distributed, so it comes from a lot of different devices. Well, this attack uh was 157 000 asus routers were affected by a vulnerability in june of 2024. So people who didn't keep their router up to date or during the time that the patch hadn't been available and were vulnerable to this. They probably didn't even know or they just thought their internet sucked and they were being used as a botnet 157,000 routers. And there was other devices, other home routers as as well. It's not just asus ones microtik devices, camera uh recorders, because whoever updates those super old web servers that people don't update to do your updates people. It's uh crazy, to say the least. I've never seen an attack even close to that large.

Speaker 2: 20:32

Yeah, that is pretty wild. I mean, in theory, if you think about it, the biggest use of a DDoS attack is what? To take down Xbox Live servers back in the day.

Speaker 1: 20:42

Back in the day?

Speaker 2: 20:43

yeah, Because you were losing in a game and now you're talking that many people infected and used as as a botnet like that.

Speaker 1: 20:53

that's crazy and it's not just. You know, they use these botnets to do all sorts of things, but like make ai content yeah. All sorts of stuff Political campaigns, everything. It's insane stuff, man, but it's uh, do your updates. That's all I can say. Yeah, be careful who you choose for your vendors. Research your equipment. But it's not the first time this has happened. Ddos attacks now are used to take down companies and countries and cyber warfare. It's an insane cybersecurity realm.

Speaker 2: 21:34

I mean, you're literally plugging network traffic with network traffic.

Speaker 1: 21:41

Yeah, I mean it's essentially for the non-technical people who are probably like what is a ddos attack? Basically, think of your internet is like a water pipe. You've got a really small water pipe coming in for your home internet, but somebody tries to shove water with a pipe that's three foot larger than the pipe you have. It's not going to fit and it jams up all the traffic in and out or all the water in and out, so you can't get anything in or out. It's just basically. Basically it's like just somebody unplugged your internet. It's unusable or it's extremely slow, to the to the point, it's almost unusable. But companies anymore rely so much on on internet. I mean, if you don't have internet you can't do anything, especially in a paperless world. Everybody's trying to move away from paper and the amount of companies that rely on cloud flare alone.

Speaker 2: 22:38

Oh yeah, you know that's wild.

Speaker 1: 22:41

I mean, and they have free services. They're trying to get everyone to use their network. It's Cloudflare is like one of the biggest content delivery networks and everything else. I'm surprised it's not a monopoly. They've got to be bigger than. I don't know anybody bigger than Cloudflare who's their competition? I mean, there's a lot of small guys out there, but nobody does what Cloudflare really does.

Speaker 2: 23:09

Now DDoS protection.

Speaker 1: 23:10

You've got Several other companies out there that do that, but Cloudflare's that's not the only thing they do.

Speaker 2: 23:18

Oh no, speaking of people Doing their updates, juicy Spotify had an update that allows you to have offline backups of your playlist yeah, um, I I did see that, but I saw that it's like a ai generated, kind of like djx creates playlists for you that you can save offline.

Speaker 1: 23:44

I guess Along those lines right?

Speaker 2: 23:49

The kind of the one thing I saw basically says like if your, connection drops out, your music won't stop because you'll have that offline backup. So I think I think there's a mixture of the two in there. I think. Don't quote me, but I don't know the two articles I saw. They were not the greatest at explaining exactly what they're doing with it. But I mean I ain't going to complain about saving some data if I can. I mean, even though I'm on unlimited, eventually they do slow you down.

Speaker 1: 24:25

Right, yeah, I keep my data usage pretty low most of the time. I'm on Wi-Fi a lot of the time, yeah.

Speaker 2: 24:35

I mean I am when I'm at home or I'm at your house, you know. But like when I'm at work, we have a guest Wi-Fi but it't reach far enough right to get certain areas of the shop, so I'm usually always on 5g listening to music, audiobooks, podcasts, you know, whatever it may be.

Speaker 1: 24:55

So I end up using a lot of data yeah, data usage just really isn't that important in this day and age anymore. But, uh, changing things up a little bit for those looking for a change from windows, look into nitrix linux. It's a new opera, new distribution, or os as they're calling it. Uh, they're supposed to be the windows 11 killer. I don't technically agree. Um, I've run an app, a lot, a lot of applications that require Windows, but this looks like a pretty promising Linux distribution for those interested in a Windows alternative. Steam released Vulkan for Linux, probably, I think, a year ago, maybe two years ago now, which opened up game support for hundreds of thousands of games that had no native linux support but built-in driver installations, nvidia, amd, intel they've got it all. Looks like a pretty promising alternative. Have you looked? Have you seen that at all? Drew?

Speaker 2: 26:04

um, just, uh, I didn't even read the article, I just saw a headline about it. That's pretty much it. I always like messing with Linux distros every often, or so it just kind of keeps me refreshed on Linux. Yeah, and some of them, man. Linux has come a long way in the open source side, like the, the stuff that you can do now on linux that 10, 15 years ago you honestly probably wouldn't even cared about or even thought possible yeah, you don't need anything crazy powerful either if you're looking to just play around a A little virtual machine an old computer.

Speaker 1: 26:45

That's what I started with. I had an old computer that wouldn't run Windows, so I put Linux on it.

Speaker 2: 26:52

It ran like it was brand new. I got like two old laptops floating around Can't run a newer version of Windows. I just threw Linux on it.

Speaker 1: 27:03

They work fine, you know as long as you know, your way around Linux for the most part. Speaking of not being able to run Windows, I saw that 24H2 is supposed to re-enable that TPM requirement, so if you're not running compatible hardware, you won't be able to upgrade again. Why?

Speaker 2: 27:20

though because they want you to upgrade to a new computer I mean, I get that, but like how quick did people find a workaround for that? What was it like? A month and they had a workaround I'm sure they'll do it again.

Speaker 1: 27:33

I mean, the workarounds does not install the update as of right now right I mean there's, I'm sure there's other ways to to get around it too, but I I saw that they were releasing that.

Speaker 2: 27:45

Another reason to switch to linux, yeah right, that's why I run ghost specter man like, yeah, I don't get like major updates or anything like that, but I always get security updates at least yeah but yeah, it just takes out a lot of that bloatware and stuff like that that people don't want.

Speaker 2: 28:04

You know, people that are into computers and messing with stuff like that windows 10 is end of life in a year which is insane I know it feels like it just came out right, you know, in looking like windows 7, windows xp, how long, how long did those go before they hit end of life? Yeah, you know. What is this? A return is the os companies turning us into video games, where they're going to come out with a new os every year well, they're talking about making it subscription based for for enterprise, it's our, it's included in your office monthly payment.

Speaker 1: 28:43

You get a windows license and that pays for your windows 11 license. I mean windows 12 I heard is going to be subscription only, but we'll see. I can't see them doing that for home use.

Speaker 2: 28:54

People are just going to go back to pirating it yeah, I mean, or they're going to see a bunch of people switch over to mac.

Speaker 1: 29:01

Yeah, you know put it in my game, simply just for that over to Mac. Yeah, put it in my Game Pass.

Speaker 2: 29:03

Simply just for that fact. I'm not paying for it in my Game Pass.

Speaker 1: 29:10

Yeah, or we'll see a big shift to, like you said, Mac or Linux.

Speaker 2: 29:16

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 29:19

It's not going to be good. This whole subscription model sucks in a lot of circumstances. I get it, but it's also just greed.

Speaker 2: 29:29

Oh, 100% greed. Just the same way with like pharmaceuticals. You know these pills that can damn near save a life that cost them pennies on the dollar to make and they're selling them for thousands of dollars a bottle.

Speaker 1: 29:42

Like it's absurd. Yeah, let's mark it up two thousand percent, because I can yeah, exactly, you know somebody will play it it's yep, it's wild because they don't have a choice.

Speaker 2: 29:53

I mean, at the end of the day, they don't have a choice. Nope, um, yeah. So, uh, how do you feel about taking a break from some news here and kind of talking about some bits, bites and beyond updates?

Speaker 1: 30:06

yeah, we definitely. We've got some things to address you know um.

Speaker 2: 30:12

The first thing I'd like to address is hitting 50 downloads um. That's fantastic you know, it shows us that there are people out there that are willing to support us and what we're trying to do, and you know we we always appreciate everybody who listens. Even if you don't listen to a full episode, you know, it still means a lot to us. Um, we got two ratings on Spotify, both five stars, awesome, um, and I think the episode went live on spotify was it a day later?

Speaker 1: 30:48

than everything else and I and I even had to publish hurley because of spotify yeah, you know, so we should be live on all platforms now um apple I heart radio, now Apple iHeartRadio.

Speaker 2: 31:02

TuneIn's, the only one that we're not on yet. Okay, which is that Amazon one?

Speaker 1: 31:07

Right, yeah, we should be live on just about everything else, though. Check out our website bitsbytesbeyondorg. You can find all of our platforms there, all of our links there, all of our social media there.

Speaker 2: 31:21

Facebook X. Buzzsprout social media there. Facebook X.

Speaker 1: 31:26

Fuck.

Speaker 2: 31:27

Instagram. Yeah, we're on Instagram, but we've only posted three things and we've had our account locked for twice now.

Speaker 1: 31:40

For no explanation.

Speaker 2: 31:42

Yeah, we have no clue what it is. They won't tell us what it is um gotta love it, yeah, so that's been kind of a nightmare yeah, check us out on our socials.

Speaker 1: 31:51

Follow us for updates. We, you know, post updates about all the podcasts. Anything we're doing in between any podcast updates.

Speaker 2: 32:02

Podcast updates. I was actually thinking that maybe we could each make a post on the Facebook page and Instagram and stuff and just throw out one podcast each that we enjoy. Yeah. A podcast that we personally listen to.

Speaker 1: 32:21

Yeah, for sure, I like that.

Speaker 2: 32:22

That's a good idea, kind of give some people some idea of what inspired us to do this. I would say yeah, so I think that'd be pretty neat. We are making a big change to our hosting. I don't know if it'll be the next episode, I don't know if it'll be episode three or episode four, but we are going to be inviting a new host in um yeah, pretty excited he's, he's a friend of mine.

Speaker 2: 32:59

Um, he's gonna really cover our our firearm side of things. Uh, he's, he's ex-military, he is very knowledgeable in guns. He, he loves them. Um, he just he knows a lot more than either one of us do. I think he'll be a really good addition, um really excited to introduce the podcast.

Speaker 1: 33:22

I think it's gonna to be a great change, but yeah.

Speaker 2: 33:25

I think it will improve everything. Yeah, I think by then, yeah.

Speaker 1: 33:34

I think that about wraps up our updates, unless you have anything else Drew feedback.

Speaker 2: 33:40

That's probably one of the biggest things right now is we've only gotten feedback from a few people. We really want your comments, criticism. We appreciate it though. We want to know how we can make this whole podcast better. If you guys think there's something wrong with the audio or don't like something about the audio, let us know. We'll try our best to fix it. You have any suggestions on some stuff you may may want us to cover, or you know anything you think just needs could be changed.

Speaker 1: 34:12

In general for the best yeah, we're always willing to hear it there's a uh option in the description of each of each podcast. You should be able to click a link that says send us a text. I know it's available on Spotify and Apple. Just tap that link. It's going to pop a text message up and you'll be able to submit your feedback right to us If it's something you'd like us to include in the podcast. I think that'd be a great thing to do. Maybe some topics to bring up Any questions you'd like to ask us to learn more about us. Love to answer any questions, but you can always hit us up on Facebook, x, instagram. I think that's it right now. Right, you can leave a comment on the podcast on our website as well Bitsbytesbeyondorg, bitsbytesbeyondorg.
