  • Used to be to the point

    Bloated with ads and host adds in unneeded talking about what your about to hear 😩when it could be like it used to be (quick and to the point with 1 ad , that’s fair)

  • This short form podcast is a waste of time

    I love Kim’s content, but this episode was 6 1/2 minutes long and had about 2 minutes of actual content. The rest of it was ads go listen to the full radio show and skip this one.

  • Unsubscribing everywhere

    I’ve been really trying to be respectful and patient but I’m fed up with your adoration of trump and your obvious adoration of your political party and bringing your politics bias opinions here on a tech show as real facts, as well as your advices always based on devices or apps that are paying you off.

  • Ads galore.

    How greedy can you get?! Let KK show you. The entire thing is a string of commercials. When the actual content started playing (nearly 4 minutes in) I had pretty much already tuned myself out when I realized the content already played then the outgoing ads had already started. Completely ridiculous waste of time.

    I like your show but I don’t think I’ll keep listening. I’m getting tired of your politics. We want tech knowledge not your political beliefs. If you don’t stop it I’ll soon unsubscribe from all your platforms.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Next smartphone could cost $523
Q: What are the risks for people using these VPN services inside Iran?
Users can be taken into custody if caught, especially since almost everyone relies on VPNs for access, including some government forces. Encryption helps protect data, but being discovered can still carry serious consequences, so the operation relies on rapid, automated deployment and frequent changes of infrastructure to stay ahead of surveillance.
Next smartphone could cost $523
Q: How does the newly shifted VPN setup work to circumvent government blocks inside Iran?
The VPN architecture uses a multi-hop approach: a server outside Iran connects users to a masked IP range inside Iran, but the real VPN terminates in a different country, so monitoring systems see traffic as originating from unrelated endpoints rather than the actual user. This makes it harder for authorities to track or block individuals trying to access restricted sites.
Quick way to find cheap gas
Q: Pam asks how to get handwritten family history and letters into a text format using AI.
Kim explains a practical workflow: photograph or scan the handwritten letters, run them through AI or OCR to extract text, then review and tweak for accuracy; after that, use voice dictation on a Mac to capture additional narration or to clean up the text, and finally assemble everything into a readable, shareable book.
New scam hiding in your inbox
Q: What do you do now after you realize you've encountered a scam and possibly handed over access to your computer?
Don't turn off the computer immediately; disconnect from the network, run a full antivirus scan, contact your bank to report unauthorized charges, change all passwords, and enable multi-factor authentication, preferably with an authenticator app.
Flying soon? 3 ways to track TSA wait times
Q: So I understand that you are a professional pilot.
Yes, I fly for an airline and have accumulated extensive flying hours; I've seen both the strengths and limitations of automated systems, emphasizing the importance of human oversight and hands-on capability, especially in emergencies.
