-
it with 6G and figure out where are it with 6G and figure out where are people's heads at with this stuff people's heads at with this stuff people's heads at with this stuff because you know the because you know the because you know the IMT uh 2030 stuff is just a joke I mean IMT uh 2030 stuff is just a joke I mean IMT uh 2030 stuff is just a joke I mean um and I said it out loud at 5G America um and I said it out loud at 5G America um and I said it out loud at 5G America like who came up with this sh [ __ ] you like who came up with this sh [ __ ] you like who came up with this sh [ __ ] you know it's like so high know it's like so high know it's like so high level you know there and you know what level you know there and you know what level you know there and you know what it's funny because now you see all these it's funny because now you see all these it's funny because now you see all these um podcasts and seminars talking about um podcasts and seminars talking about um podcasts and seminars talking about okay what is five 6G what is it going to okay what is five 6G what is it going to okay what is five 6G what is it going to be like nobody has a clue you know what be like nobody has a clue you know what be like nobody has a clue you know what I'm saying now everyone's now talking I'm saying now everyone's now talking I'm saying now everyone's now talking about subterahertz you know going moving about subterahertz you know going moving about subterahertz you know going moving away from terahertz silliness down to away from terahertz silliness down to away from terahertz silliness down to subter hers I mean you know what gels subter hers I mean you know what gels subter hers I mean you know what gels it's like what what problem are you it's like what what problem are you it's like what what problem are you trying to solve what are youy trying trying to solve what are youy trying trying to solve what are youy trying like right what problem are you trying like right what problem are you trying like right what problem are you trying to solve what what what are you going to to solve what what what are you going to to solve what what what are you going to do well I mean can we can can somebody do well I mean can we can can somebody do well I mean can we can can somebody tell me where 5G lives because I can't tell me where 5G lives because I can't tell me where 5G lives because I can't find it exactly there's no there's still find it exactly there's no there's still find it exactly there's no there's still no infrastructure for private 5G and so no infrastructure for private 5G and so no infrastructure for private 5G and so how are you going to get to 6G with the how are you going to get to 6G with the how are you going to get to 6G with the same infrastructure issues right like same infrastructure issues right like same infrastructure issues right like it's it's still if you want to deploy 5G it's it's still if you want to deploy 5G it's it's still if you want to deploy 5G in a factory you're going to have to in a factory you're going to have to in a factory you're going to have to deploy some sort of infrastructure with deploy some sort of infrastructure with deploy some sort of infrastructure with that and I haven't I haven't seen it oh that and I haven't I haven't seen it oh that and I haven't I haven't seen it oh yeah yeah I mean there's plenty already yeah yeah I mean there's plenty already yeah yeah I mean there's plenty already to do with just whatever it is that's to do with just whatever it is that's to do with just whatever it is that's coming with 5G Advanced and 6G really coming with 5G Advanced and 6G really coming with 5G Advanced and 6G really becomes a big question mark you know oh becomes a big question mark you know oh becomes a big question mark you know oh but what about Huawei talking about 5.5g I like it who has the knife that's

these solutions for these problems and these solutions for these problems and then no one and then no one ends up then no one and then no one ends up then no one and then no one ends up doing anything because the customer is doing anything because the customer is doing anything because the customer is not stupid and they have 17 ways to not stupid and they have 17 ways to not stupid and they have 17 ways to potentially do this and then they just potentially do this and then they just potentially do this and then they just end up upgrading to Wi 56 which is they end up upgrading to Wi 56 which is they end up upgrading to Wi 56 which is they should have done in the first place yeah should have done in the first place yeah should have done in the first place yeah I think you can almost go to a store now I think you can almost go to a store now I think you can almost go to a store now and buy Wi-Fi 7 gear some of yes yeah and buy Wi-Fi 7 gear some of yes yeah and buy Wi-Fi 7 gear some of yes yeah ero is already shipping I think someone ero is already shipping I think someone ero is already shipping I think someone else I read the shipping it's GNA be a else I read the shipping it's GNA be a else I read the shipping it's GNA be a hard sell for someone to go try to go hard sell for someone to go try to go hard sell for someone to go try to go through all that pain of deploying through all that pain of deploying through all that pain of deploying private 5G when they can just run down private 5G when they can just run down private 5G when they can just run down to to to Staples and get Wi-Fi 7 gear that just Staples and get Wi-Fi 7 gear that just Staples and get Wi-Fi 7 gear that just smokes it it's like not even in the same smokes it it's like not even in the same smokes it it's like not even in the same universe of speed you know and people universe of speed you know and people universe of speed you know and people understand Wi-Fi [ __ ] just understand Wi-Fi [ __ ] just understand Wi-Fi [ __ ] just works throw up some APS baby you got an works throw up some APS baby you got an works throw up some APS baby you got an AP you got an AP here's the router you AP you got an AP here's the router you AP you got an AP here's the router you got one you know what I've just decided got one you know what I've just decided got one you know what I've just decided we should rename the show The Hype we should rename the show The Hype we should rename the show The Hype machine the hype machine the hype machine the hype machine that's what we're really all machine that's what we're really all machine that's what we're really all about yeah dude but you know like this about yeah dude but you know like this about yeah dude but you know like this um it did get away from us C you know um it did get away from us C you know um it did get away from us C you know for for a long time for for a long time for for a long time look if we go back to the to the 3gpp look if we go back to the to the 3gpp look if we go back to the to the 3gpp release dates that followed 1G 2G 3G for release dates that followed 1G 2G 3G for release dates that followed 1G 2G 3G for even even 5G there was this like okay it even even 5G there was this like okay it even even 5G there was this like okay it makes sense you know 5G capabilities makes sense you know 5G capabilities makes sense you know 5G capabilities there's a release schedule I know we there's a release schedule I know we there's a release schedule I know we were talking about it was either release were talking about it was either release were talking about it was either release 17 or 18 that was going to bring uh like

Mark so uh they decid so it's it's they Mark so uh they decid so it's it's they decided to do what actually Bill say so decided to do what actually Bill say so decided to do what actually Bill say so what people want okay they want a what people want okay they want a what people want okay they want a TV so they decided to acquire a TV with TV so they decided to acquire a TV with TV so they decided to acquire a TV with the rights of sports and soccer and the rights of sports and soccer and the rights of sports and soccer and basketball and everything and they pay basketball and everything and they pay basketball and everything and they pay so much money for that and I remember so much money for that and I remember so much money for that and I remember being invested by telephonic at that being invested by telephonic at that being invested by telephonic at that time and speaking with the guys from time and speaking with the guys from time and speaking with the guys from Innovation iot Etc and they were saying Innovation iot Etc and they were saying Innovation iot Etc and they were saying this is silly they paid so much money this is silly they paid so much money this is silly they paid so much money but the return of investment of that was but the return of investment of that was but the return of investment of that was so quick after after the so seeing that so quick after after the so seeing that so quick after after the so seeing that 10 years after you see that that was 10 years after you see that that was 10 years after you see that that was like the right acquisition they needed like the right acquisition they needed like the right acquisition they needed like a TV channel for them so they could like a TV channel for them so they could like a TV channel for them so they could digitalize and create kind of a Netflix digitalize and create kind of a Netflix digitalize and create kind of a Netflix competitor thing where they where people competitor thing where they where people competitor thing where they where people could watch football so everyone is could watch football so everyone is could watch football so everyone is needs to pay their pay wall to watch needs to pay their pay wall to watch needs to pay their pay wall to watch football and this is now what the Telco football and this is now what the Telco football and this is now what the Telco is converted here at least in Spain it's is converted here at least in Spain it's is converted here at least in Spain it's a TV a TV a TV channel where it's a kind of a streaming channel where it's a kind of a streaming channel where it's a kind of a streaming system well that's cool because they system well that's cool because they system well that's cool because they made an investment in a business and made an investment in a business and made an investment in a business and that investment drove profit like that's that investment drove profit like that's that investment drove profit like that's cool you know you're supposed to make cool you know you're supposed to make cool you know you're supposed to make money just you know be be open about it money just you know be be open about it money just you know be be open about it and besides aren't aren't the aren the and besides aren't aren't the aren the and besides aren't aren't the aren the our friends from the Middle East buying our friends from the Middle East buying our friends from the Middle East buying up all of uh uh a big chunk of Spain's up all of uh uh a big chunk of Spain's up all of uh uh a big chunk of Spain's Telco I was reading this a couple of Telco I was reading this a couple of Telco I was reading this a couple of weeks uh last week weeks uh last week weeks uh last week right well you know government Telco right well you know government Telco right well you know government Telco let's see uh let's see how that pans out
-
let's see uh let's see how that pans out let's see uh let's see how that pans out 5 10 years from now wow so I remember 5 10 years from now wow so I remember 5 10 years from now wow so I remember when AT&T copied them and decided to buy when AT&T copied them and decided to buy when AT&T copied them and decided to buy content and networks and stuff like that content and networks and stuff like that content and networks and stuff like that and obviously it didn't work out for and obviously it didn't work out for and obviously it didn't work out for them it just almost just pulled them them it just almost just pulled them them it just almost just pulled them right underwater what a nightmare that right underwater what a nightmare that right underwater what a nightmare that was well that's because that's because was well that's because that's because was well that's because that's because in in and at least from my perspective in in and at least from my perspective in in and at least from my perspective when Acquisitions occur you need to make when Acquisitions occur you need to make when Acquisitions occur you need to make that acquisition for that purpose and that acquisition for that purpose and that acquisition for that purpose and stop trying to consume them the problem stop trying to consume them the problem stop trying to consume them the problem with AT&T and Direct TV was was with AT&T and Direct TV was was with AT&T and Direct TV was was clear they they're not the clear they they're not the clear they they're not the same I mean they're just not and Direct same I mean they're just not and Direct same I mean they're just not and Direct TV that's why they spun them back out TV that's why they spun them back out TV that's why they spun them back out private they were like [ __ ] we don't private they were like [ __ ] we don't private they were like [ __ ] we don't know what to do with you know what to do with you know what to do with you do with HBO AT&T had a history of dealing with HBO AT&T had a history of dealing with customer service problems and not being customer service problems and not being customer service problems and not being able to deliver on customer services and able to deliver on customer services and able to deliver on customer services and you pull in Direct TV and if you're not you pull in Direct TV and if you're not you pull in Direct TV and if you're not delivering Services they're hopping delivering Services they're hopping delivering Services they're hopping they're fast consumers are fickle and they're fast consumers are fickle and they're fast consumers are fickle and they just lost like on the operational they just lost like on the operational they just lost like on the operational the backend side all of that the backend side all of that the backend side all of that capability when they Consolidated and capability when they Consolidated and capability when they Consolidated and thought that they could do it and do it thought that they could do it and do it thought that they could do it and do it well and they missed the mark and well and they missed the mark and well and they missed the mark and consumers are like bye you know oh they consumers are like bye you know oh they consumers are like bye you know oh they missed the mark huge I mean people are missed the mark huge I mean people are missed the mark huge I mean people are like streaming is faster better they're like streaming is faster better they're like streaming is faster better they're jumping the one thing that Direct TV had

jumping the one thing that Direct TV had jumping the one thing that Direct TV had that was very smart that that AT&T that was very smart that that AT&T that was very smart that that AT&T benefited from was they had these benefited from was they had these benefited from was they had these relationships with the professional relationships with the professional relationships with the professional sports they've lost that lost that to sports they've lost that lost that to sports they've lost that lost that to YouTube and and TV for the win I mean YouTube and and TV for the win I mean YouTube and and TV for the win I mean that's the whole thing right but YouTube that's the whole thing right but YouTube that's the whole thing right but YouTube did it smart they're not saying you have did it smart they're not saying you have did it smart they're not saying you have to get YouTube TV in order to get the to get YouTube TV in order to get the to get YouTube TV in order to get the NFL channel they're saying YouTube TV is NFL channel they're saying YouTube TV is NFL channel they're saying YouTube TV is something different we'll compete with something different we'll compete with something different we'll compete with these other streaming you know service these other streaming you know service these other streaming you know service providers but if you just want NFL we providers but if you just want NFL we providers but if you just want NFL we got got got you and you have to you have to cater to you and you have to you have to cater to you and you have to you have to cater to your Market you have to know who your your Market you have to know who your your Market you have to know who your Market is and you go and you get it Market is and you go and you get it Market is and you go and you get it you're not just going to take it over you're not just going to take it over you're not just going to take it over but you have to understand what but you have to understand what but you have to understand what 33% market share means to your overall 33% market share means to your overall 33% market share means to your overall business yeah I think that consumers business yeah I think that consumers business yeah I think that consumers were getting frustrated too where okay I were getting frustrated too where okay I were getting frustrated too where okay I get the Disney bundle but that also get the Disney bundle but that also get the Disney bundle but that also includes NFL you know so when all those includes NFL you know so when all those includes NFL you know so when all those things were kind of piped together like things were kind of piped together like things were kind of piped together like I don't want that I just want this and I don't want that I just want this and I don't want that I just want this and YouTube said you know what we're going YouTube said you know what we're going YouTube said you know what we're going to make it seamless we're going to make to make it seamless we're going to make to make it seamless we're going to make it easy for them to have that choice and it easy for them to have that choice and it easy for them to have that choice and not throw in a bunch of other content not throw in a bunch of other content not throw in a bunch of other content and they have to pay a premium on that and they have to pay a premium on that and they have to pay a premium on that they don't want but you but you know but they don't want but you but you know but they don't want but you but you know but uh look but this thing is also coming uh look but this thing is also coming uh look but this thing is also coming full circle because so again we go back full circle because so again we go back full circle because so again we go back in today the Direct TV example you know in today the Direct TV example you know in today the Direct TV example you know it's a million dollars a second I get it's a million dollars a second I get it's a million dollars a second I get 952 th000 channels I only care about one

you can get Sky stream for 20 pounds you can get Sky stream for 20 pounds right so so actually it's it's it kind right so so actually it's it's it kind right so so actually it's it's it kind of just makes sense so I think that of just makes sense so I think that of just makes sense so I think that partnership is is absolutely critical um partnership is is absolutely critical um partnership is is absolutely critical um you know people don't want four five six you know people don't want four five six you know people don't want four five six seven different subscriptions to and you seven different subscriptions to and you seven different subscriptions to and you know they'll only do it because they're know they'll only do it because they're know they'll only do it because they're programmed like David said about you programmed like David said about you programmed like David said about you know Yellowstone being on and so on and know Yellowstone being on and so on and know Yellowstone being on and so on and so forth right um it it's just um yeah I so forth right um it it's just um yeah I so forth right um it it's just um yeah I think we've just kind of got to that think we've just kind of got to that think we've just kind of got to that point where it's kind of you know we're point where it's kind of you know we're point where it's kind of you know we're at critical mass Netflix is struggling at critical mass Netflix is struggling at critical mass Netflix is struggling for Subs now it's widely reported which for Subs now it's widely reported which for Subs now it's widely reported which is why they pulled the sharing off um is why they pulled the sharing off um is why they pulled the sharing off um I'm not I'm not sure where it's going to I'm not I'm not sure where it's going to I'm not I'm not sure where it's going to go there's a really good analyst on this go there's a really good analyst on this go there's a really good analyst on this called Dan Rayburn right I don't know if called Dan Rayburn right I don't know if called Dan Rayburn right I don't know if you guys know Dan but Dan talks a lot you guys know Dan but Dan talks a lot you guys know Dan but Dan talks a lot about um uh especially the US payv about um uh especially the US payv about um uh especially the US payv market but it' be interesting to see market but it' be interesting to see market but it' be interesting to see because um there's more and more because um there's more and more because um there's more and more streaming services coming out and streaming services coming out and streaming services coming out and paywalls in order in order to view it um paywalls in order in order to view it um paywalls in order in order to view it um but yeah you're right I think um I think but yeah you're right I think um I think but yeah you're right I think um I think partnering and the Telco is partnering partnering and the Telco is partnering partnering and the Telco is partnering with these people to to like provide in with these people to to like provide in with these people to to like provide in the service so you're not a quad play the service so you're not a quad play the service so you're not a quad play provider you're actually quad playay provider you're actually quad playay provider you're actually quad playay plus the streaming services and it's all plus the streaming services and it's all plus the streaming services and it's all wrapped up into one would work really wrapped up into one would work really wrapped up into one would work really really well but yeah it's an interesting really well but yeah it's an interesting really well but yeah it's an interesting top top top now and they're also talking about um now and they're also talking about um now and they're also talking about um how they're going to start creeping in how they're going to start creeping in how they're going to start creeping in commercials so all those commercial commercials so all those commercial commercials so all those commercial relationships it's it it's like okay relationships it's it it's like okay relationships it's it it's like okay let's get them all hooked and we're let's get them all hooked and we're let's get them all hooked and we're losing subscribers so now what do we do losing subscribers so now what do we do losing subscribers so now what do we do we go back to finding ways to insert we go back to finding ways to insert we go back to finding ways to insert commercials where we can and have the

commercials where we can and have the commercials where we can and have the have funding coming in from those have funding coming in from those have funding coming in from those commercials so it's like I almost feel commercials so it's like I almost feel commercials so it's like I almost feel like we were talking about coming full like we were talking about coming full like we were talking about coming full circle I almost feel like that's going circle I almost feel like that's going circle I almost feel like that's going to be something else that's going to to be something else that's going to to be something else that's going to just slap everyone and everyone's going just slap everyone and everyone's going just slap everyone and everyone's going to get frustrating again because we are to get frustrating again because we are to get frustrating again because we are so spoiled with not having commercials so spoiled with not having commercials so spoiled with not having commercials or being able to fast forward or get or being able to fast forward or get or being able to fast forward or get away from them that I think that they're away from them that I think that they're away from them that I think that they're going to start requiring some of that to going to start requiring some of that to going to start requiring some of that to be popped in here and there yeah one one be popped in here and there yeah one one be popped in here and there yeah one one of the things that uh we actually worked of the things that uh we actually worked of the things that uh we actually worked on a few years ago with a business um on a few years ago with a business um on a few years ago with a business um was around interactive overlays but it was around interactive overlays but it was around interactive overlays but it never really took off you don't see it never really took off you don't see it never really took off you don't see it in mainstream but it was like in mainstream but it was like in mainstream but it was like commercials or ads that popped up mid commercials or ads that popped up mid commercials or ads that popped up mid kind of match right and you were able to kind of match right and you were able to kind of match right and you were able to click or you were able to get a discount click or you were able to get a discount click or you were able to get a discount or something like that based upon the or something like that based upon the or something like that based upon the action that was actually going on um action that was actually going on um action that was actually going on um because I think kind of if you look at because I think kind of if you look at because I think kind of if you look at commercials and just how how it's set up commercials and just how how it's set up commercials and just how how it's set up it's quite it's quite it's quite old it's quite it's quite it's quite old it's quite it's quite it's quite old fashioned right really isn't it it's fashioned right really isn't it it's fashioned right really isn't it it's quite archaic you know it's just like a quite archaic you know it's just like a quite archaic you know it's just like a three minute break and you know whatever three minute break and you know whatever three minute break and you know whatever but actually the the overlays and using but actually the the overlays and using but actually the the overlays and using the metadata that comes off the back of the metadata that comes off the back of the metadata that comes off the back of it and then tailoring the ads it and then tailoring the ads it and then tailoring the ads specifically I feel like we're not that specifically I feel like we're not that specifically I feel like we're not that advanced on that and we could we could advanced on that and we could we could advanced on that and we could we could be further you know be further you know be further you know yeah that all exists you know the the yeah that all exists you know the the yeah that all exists you know the the traditional TV was never well it doesn't traditional TV was never well it doesn't traditional TV was never well it doesn't have the capability to deliver that uh have the capability to deliver that uh have the capability to deliver that uh now with the with the Wi-Fi setup boxes now with the with the Wi-Fi setup boxes now with the with the Wi-Fi setup boxes you know there's more you know there's more you know there's more granularity um if that depending on the granularity um if that depending on the granularity um if that depending on the brand you chose for your TV it might be brand you chose for your TV it might be brand you chose for your TV it might be sending more data than you want to know sending more data than you want to know sending more data than you want to know but that's that's not for today but the

Summary
The conversation centers on the complexities of Halloween, particularly for children, and the challenge of explaining its death themes. The speakers note the trend of extending celebrations like "hallow weekend" and compare it to birthdays becoming weeks or months. The practical takeaway is to focus on the fun aspects of dressing up and candy with kids, rather than delving into difficult explanations.
