A highlight from World Data Products Int. (WDPI) achieves ITAD certification, Podcast
"This is Doug Green, and I'm the publisher of Telecom Reseller, and this is a special podcast for the ASCDI, and I'm very pleased to have with us today Neil Vild of WDPI. Neil, thank you for joining us today. Thanks, Doug. Great to be with you. Well, it's really wonderful to be able to do this podcast on behalf of the ASCDI. You're a very long -term, very active member of this association, a very prominent person and company within this industry and within this organization, so it's really a pleasure to have you here today. We're going to be talking about your recent certification, or really certifications, with ITAD and how that changes the game and why that's important to ASCDI members, to the community and to many technology companies, enterprise companies that might be just happy to be listening or watching. So we're going to dive into that in a second, but Neil, first of all, what is WDPI? So WDPI stands for World Data Products Incorporated. We've been in business since 1987 in the Minneapolis suburbs, currently in Plymouth, Minnesota. We started off as an independent hardware reseller, selling brands originally manufactured by companies such as Cisco, HP, Dell, and IBM. We're also an authorized reseller of Dell. Along the way, over those last number of years, we developed an internal repair business, which we can offer to clients as well, where we repair all of those items I mentioned that we can go down to the board level, repair power supplies, other devices such as laptops and Chromebooks. And then about 10 years ago, we acquired a company in the certified tape media business that basically goes out and acquires used tape media, those cartridges that everybody remembers, and we bring those back to our facility, fully eradicate the data and resell them. And that's the business that really got us into ITAT services about 10 years ago. That company, and we still do that, has a team of people that goes onsite and does IT hardware decommissioning, onsite audits, data sanitization, secure transport, and a host of other ITAT related services. So in fact, you guys had really been sort of in the ITAT market already, and this sort of solidifies that position. It does. And we decided to pursue these certifications for a number of reasons. One, our customers started to ask for them, both on the end user side and the wholesale side. We deal direct with end users, we also go through other resellers, and we work with other ITATs as a subcontractor. And as a number of them have been paying more attention to data security and the environment, they've been asking us about these certifications. So one of the reasons we pursued these was to really be responsive to our customer requests. Another is we view it as a differentiator. Those are really confirmation of the standards that we have. Not everybody has that certification out there. More people are getting it, which is great for business and for the environment. And thirdly, it really helped us improve our processes in certain areas and kind of raised the bar. So it was a win -win among all three of those elements. Let's dive a little deeper into ITAT. So first of all, can you explain to me what ITAT is? What does that mean? ITAT, IT Asset Disposition. It's a whole host of offerings and processes where, you know, starting if a company is looking to, you know, upgrade or refresh its data center or close something down, it needs to really find a responsible home for the used equipment, whether that's in a resale environment or in a recycling environment. Part of that involves onsite services, such as I mentioned, you know, data center decommissioning, data sanitization, whether that's onsite or at our site, the commitment to either resell these devices, which could be economically beneficial to the seller and to the purchaser, also making sure that the data is fully eradicated. But then in some cases, the data bearing devices have to be destroyed either logically or physically. And that leads us into working with responsible recyclers who can track these devices, provide certificates that they've been disposed of in an environmentally sound manner. So it's a whole host of services and processes. We don't have the time to go through that. That'd be a several day podcast, Doug, but I know we're a little bit time constrained today. Well, you know, as you can see behind me, it looks like beams of light are coming off my head, I think, but I'm actually reporting live from Las Vegas at the Mobile World Congress. Lots of carriers here, lots of enterprises, lots of interests. You know, this is a good example for this question. Why does it matter to the outside world? Why does ITAD matter to really everybody? Well, it matters, it's the biggest issue is really sustainability and protecting the environment. But there are also other elements within these certifications that are more internally oriented for the welfare of businesses and our employees. You know, if you go down the list, the R2 -V3 is really a phenomenal standard. You know, really stands for responsible recycling and reuse. Some really strict requirements on data sanitization and eradication and data security, which is a real differentiator. Part of these certifications involve several ISO standards, ISO 9001, which is a quality management standard, your world data had been ISO 9001 certified for about the last 10 years. So we renewed that one. ISO 14001 is environmental management. ISO 45001 is employee health and safety. And we're very proud of world data. We've been have a track record of over three years of accident free operation in our facility in Plymouth. And we intend to keep that going, God willing. And then the ASCDI ITED certified certification is also very important where, you know, in addition to the processes and the operational aspects that those other standards focus on, ASCDI adds to it the commitment to a code of ethics, which is unique in the industry. And every ASCDI member has to adhere to that. You know, we have stringent membership requirements for that association. And so as a long time member, as our company, a long time board member and former chairman of ASCDI, I am very proud to see our association going in that direction as well. So, you know, Neil, it sounds like this is also a great opportunity for the channels to go out there and sell a really amazing value added service. It is, Doug, you know, it helps the channel in a number of ways. One, you know, given and also end users in terms of the resale value that we can achieve for the equipment that is, you know, coming through the ITED process, you know, the highest and best use of a piece of equipment is to keep it in use. And, you know, the origin of our business was hardware resale. So our wholesalers or equipment traders know how to maximize the value of that equipment for the client, whether that's an end user client or a wholesaler or another ITED who has the end user relationship. So that is a huge advantage, I think, that World Data can deliver, given our history of being in that resale market. We're not just turning it around and flipping it on eBay or somewhere else. We can really maximize value. So, you know, Neil, it also sounds like, you know, channels should be really alert to this because if you're working with customers and you're in the course of sales and working with them, you're pulling out equipment, you are really not doing them a service if you're disposing of it incorrectly. That's correct. And so by virtue of the processes we've always had, plus now with the new certifications, you know, we're disposing of everything appropriately. You know, items that can be reused will be reused and resold at the maximum value we can get. Items that are no longer suitable for reuse will be recycled in a proper manner. And so, you know, channel partners can trust us as they've trusted us with, you know, other areas of business since 1987 to do the right thing and to uphold, you know, the environmentally sound and business sound practices. Another advantage we can offer is additional resources and feed on the street. You know, some of these ITAT opportunities are, you know, to use a technical term, lumpy. You know, they're not necessarily regular. And if a project comes up where a channel partner needs additional resources, whether that's feed on the street or processing capability, warehousing or logistics, we can offer that through our facility in Plymouth, Minnesota, from a facilities perspective. But we can also send our team, you know, anywhere in the country to help with onsite projects. You know, Neil, with regard to the end users of the enterprises, we're living at a time of great transition, hybrid companies getting rid of whole floors of office space and all the equipment on those floors. Sounds like enterprises need to be alert to this too. They do. And hopefully, you know, with the movement toward ESG and environments, you know, social aspects, governance, I think more enterprises are becoming aware of this. In fact, they're adopting goals along these lines. So we're here to help in terms of achieving those particular goals. And again, it's the right thing for the business. There are certain business objectives that can be met and environmental objectives that can be met. Does – you said when we were preparing for a podcast today that it even has some opportunities for the other ITAT companies. The benefit we could offer to other ITAT companies is, as a subcontractor, we can facilitate your broader reach, the processing capability that we have, the resale capability that we have to maximize value, relationships we have with responsible recycling partners, and also logistics. We have a facility in the upper Midwest that is very convenient to several major cities, can help reduce costs of transportation for this equipment. You know, we can't – if we can ship it via ground versus air, for example, or the closer it is, we can go pick it up with our own people on secure trucks and that sort of things. We can help reduce costs and increase their reach and provide a better service to the end -user enterprise customers that the other ITATs have. So Neil, you were telling me something very interesting that is unique about WTPI amongst the companies in the ASCDI, maybe in the – really most of the ICAT industry as well. Well, we were fortunate, Doug, to actually buy back the company from a private equity investor about 18 months ago. And now we are 100 % owned by nine employees and we're not an ESOP. You know, these ESOPs have different kinds of restrictions. But I think it's unique in our industry that we're a fully employee -owned company of that nature. You know, many times it's founders, founder and spouse, sort of an inner circle of owners. And I'm really proud that we've been able to offer this common equity ownership to a broader range of employees. And it is unique, I believe, in our industry. And certainly our people are very revved up about that. And I'm very happy to see that. Well, Neil, you know, we've talked in our conversation today about enterprises, about channels, about different types of companies. How does everyone do business? How can we learn more about your company and these services? Well, we have our website, which has extensive content on that and contact information. Feel free to email me, neil .ville at wdpi .com. That might be on the screen later, maybe not. But I'm in the ASCDI directory. I'm on LinkedIn. We have a great team of people, too, who I could direct anybody to for particular, more detailed advice on resale, valuation of products and that sort of thing. But certainly please contact us in whatever is easiest method for you out there. And we'd be happy to help. Well, Neil, I really want to thank you for joining me today. This has been really interesting. I hope you get to do one in a few more months and find out how everything's going. Update us on what you guys are doing. But for now, thanks very much. Thank you, Doug. Look forward to that. Appreciate the time. Thanks very much.

"With Bloomberg, you get the story behind the story, the story behind the global birth rate, behind your EV battery's environmental impact, behind sand, yeah, sand, you get context, and context changes everything. Go to Bloomberg .com to get context. As a knee -jerk reaction when oil prices go down, they all get sold off at the same time. Energy, by the way, the best performers over the past three months. Yeah, we'll see how things shake out, and I think to Simone's point, this is kind of a market, at least right now, kind of left to its own devices, at least until next Wednesday and maybe even beyond that, so we get to the next earnings season. As for the price action today, a mixed bag with the Dow Jones Industrial Average looking like it's going to close out the day lower by about two -tenths of a percent, roughly down about 70 points. Meanwhile, the S &P 500 moving in the opposite direction, but only modestly, higher by about five points or about a tenth of a percent. The NASDAQ composite higher on the day by about three -tenths of a percent, and the Russell 2000, that's your relative underperformer of the day. It's going to close lower by about eight -tenths of a percent. Now, despite the fact that the S &P 500 did close higher by more than one -tenth of one percent, Scarlett, you actually saw fewer stocks in there advance than decline, speaks to the, of course, market cap of the mega cap tech companies that, if they're not Apple, tended to move higher today, 202 stocks in the S &P 500 moving higher, 298 today moving lower. All right, let's take a look at how the S &P 500 ended the day among its 24 industry groups. Retailers are in the lead there, up one and a half percent. That's really Amazon lifting the group as a whole. Autos and components, GM, Ford, and Tesla rising, and utilities, still that defensive bent. We saw that yesterday as well. On the downside, tech hardware, that's HP and Apple dragging that group lower. Capital goods index is really 3M in Ingersoll Rand, and then you have real estate investment trust lower by eight -tenths of one percent. All right, I got some gainers for you on the day today. JB Hunt Transportation Services, Inc. moving higher today by more than four percent.

Fresh "HP" from Bloomberg Daybreak
"Soon season of this year in the arid southwest dropped only 0 .15 inches of rainfall from June 15 to September 30. That's the driest since the agency began keeping records in 1995. And Alphabet's Google will begin to make its Chromebook laptops in India through a partnership forged with HP. The move makes Google the latest among global technology companies to expand assembly in the key growth market. And that's the Bloomberg NJIT STEM report. Nathan? Alright Karen, thank you. It is coming up to 644 on Wall Street and it's time now to check what's going on in DC where some of the top stories include the bipartisan deal to avert government shutdown. President Biden signed the 45 -day stopgap with minutes to spare now and he's calling on House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to act on what was left out of the agreement. There's no Ukraine funding in this agreement. Despite that, I did not believe we could let millions of Americans go through the pain of a government shutdown. But let's be clear, I hope my friends on the other side keep keep their word about support for Ukraine. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy says he supports Ukraine funding too, he but wants to act on securing the U .S.-Mexico border first. The American border matters and more people More Americans are dying on our border than Americans are. Speaker McCarthy was on CBS's Face the Nation. The funding deal could come at a political cost for the speaker. Florida Republican Matt Gaetz went on ABC's This Week to say he's going to move to oust McCarthy and keep filing the motion until he gets the votes. I relentless am and I will continue to pursue this objective. Speaker McCarthy's response? Bring it on. Matt voted against the most conservative ability to protect our border, secure border. our He's more interested in securing TV interviews than doing something. Speaker McCarthy again on CBS's Face the Nation. Also making news, President Biden weighing in on a third -party presidential campaign telling Republicans it would only help Republicans. West Virginia Democratic Senator Joe Manchin told Fox News Sunday he'll decide by the end of the year whether he's making a third -party bid. This country does not run on the fringes. It never has. And it can't start now so they're either going to come back or we're going to bring it back. And you can hear Fox News Sunday along with Face the Nation and this week every Sunday right here on Bloomberg Radio. And for more, by we're joined Bloomberg Government Congress reporter Zach Cohen because it sounds like we're going to have more fights over spending for the next several weeks, Zach. What's what you're going to be looking out for up to November 17th now. That's right. And sort of a unique about -face in Congress where not just McCarthy but also the Senate when it comes to Ukraine aid basically dropped a lot of their objections to some of these policy the riders other chamber was looking to advance the hard part obviously comes now in getting past November 17th past the Thanksgiving holiday and funding the government for the rest of the fiscal year, which started this weekend. And so it's unclear how they sort of manage those. They got a couple of House bills that have come out of there so far with really only Republican support with maybe a smattering of support from some vulnerable Democrats. But those bills aren't going to get become as law written. The Senate's going to want its say in those. So I imagine the Senate will try to pass some of those. The House will try to pass the rest of its bills. It's canceled. It's October recess in order to do that or at least part of that. And we'll see what happens after that. And then those those full year fiscal 24 bills are going to make the wrangling over just getting a stopgap. C .R. look like child's play. And of course, Congressman Gates is making a lot of noise, saying that he could potentially complicate things even further by moving to oust McCarthy as speaker. How serious is that effort? Well, under the rules that were passed in the beginning of the Congress, listeners will remember that there a was week of balloting just to give Speaker Kevin McCarthy the gavel for the whole House. And now, Congressman Matt Gaetz, a Republican from Florida, a vociferous supporter of former President Donald Trump, has indicated that he does plan to, with the power of those rules, bring a motion to vacate the chair, to essentially oust McCarthy as speaker. Now, he would need a majority to do that, and it's unclear if he, obviously, votes has the to do that, but he could tie up the House for a long time procedurally in pursuit of this goal. And it's unclear what Democrats do at this juncture. They could join Gaetz in trying to oust McCarthy, and maybe try to elect Hakeem Jeffries, the Democrat from New York, as speaker instead. But that seems like a long shot. As long as Republicans still hold the House, what that would essentially do is just continue to keep the House in a state of suspended animation as they choose a new speaker. And this is what McCarthy has been trying to avoid all along. Some of these more conservative stopgap funding bills is avoiding a fight over the speakership, not just for his own political future, but for continuation a of governance in the House heading into this November 17th funding deadline. Just a minute left here, Zach. We got some interesting news overnight from California. The governor has picked someone pretty close to the bell way to fill Dianne Feinstein's remaining term in the Senate. That's right. California Governor Gavin Newsom announced that he plans to appoint LaFonzo Butler, the who's president of Emily's List, which is a super PAC that supports pro -choice women or women who support abortion rights in House, Senate legislative races across the country as something of an interim appointment. She would be the only black woman in the Senate, which would be rather historic. Obviously, now Vice President Kamala Harris held that title for some time. And then California voters would elect a replacement for Feinstein for a full six -year term come November 2024. Butler's only going to be in that seat for about a year and a month before Feinstein's full -time replacement is elected, but she would serve in the body for that year with all the powers of a normal senator. And so certainly a historic moment for California, an important one for Doosan's own political career as he continues to be ascendant. But that should happen in the next couple of days. And I imagine not going to wait very long to fill Feinstein's seat, given how narrow the Senate majority is. OK. Zach Cohen, as always, thanks for keeping us up to speed on what's happening in the nation's capital. Read more or
Stuff You Should Know
A highlight from Short Stuff: Why Spilling Salt is Unlucky
"You know, there are some things in life you just can't trust, like a free couch on the side of the road, or the sushi rolls from your local gas station, or when your kid says they don't need the bathroom before the road trip. But there are some things in life you can trust, like the HP Smart Tank Printer. With up to two years of ink included and outstanding print quality, you can rely on the HP Smart Tank Printer from HP, America's most trusted printer brand. Hey, and welcome to The Short Stuff. I'm Josh and there's Chuck, and we're doing it by ourselves, doing it in the park, doing it after dark. It's Short Stuff. Yeah, and you know what? This was a little treat for me because this is one of the old HowStuffWorks articles written by Debbie Ronca, my good friend. Yeah, yeah. I saw that. When I picked it, I was like, Chuck's gonna love this. Yeah, there was a time when we were writing there where I ended up getting quite a few of my friends' freelance jobs, and Debbie was one of them, and we just saw Deb at our show in Boston. Hey, Debbie. So it was good to catch up with her. Yeah, and she did a great job with this because it's not easy to talk about superstitions and keep your wits about you. You can get so scared that you are just gonna get off track. You might stop writing altogether, but she plowed through and came up with a great article from HowStuffWorks about why it's bad luck to spill salt, because everybody knows it's bad luck to spill salt. But why? And then on top of that, have you ever noticed some people throw salt over their left shoulder when they spill it? I do. Why would we do that too? Here's the thing. I know that superstitions can be regional, and I'm not saying people in the South don't I've never seen anyone do this. I know it's a thing. I've heard of it. But I never did it. Maybe I've never spilled salt. I don't know. But I've never known people who did it, so it just wasn't a popular thing for me growing up or now. Throwing it over your shoulder? Yeah. I've never seen anyone do this stuff. So, yeah, I do it every time, but it's possible, though, that's – I guess I want to establish – you've known forever that spilling salt is bad luck at least, right? No. Oh, okay. I mean, I've heard about it and seen it in movies, but it wasn't like a superstition that was prominent for me for some reason. Okay. But you had heard of it. Like, this isn't like news to you. No, no, no. It wasn't news. It was just like, who does this, and why is everyone spilling salt? So, yeah, the thing about spilling salt and it being a superstition is it seems to be a really, really old superstition that's been passed down through millennia, essentially, and it's still around today, which is kind of funny, because I don't actually consider myself superstitious, but yet I still throw salt over my left shoulder every time I spill it, and I spill a lot of salt. What does spilling salt mean? Like, you reach for the shaker and you tip it over by accident? I do it any time the salt touches the counter or anything aside from the salt box that I use. So, like, if you're shaking a little salt on food and some, like, jumps off onto the counter, that's considered spilling it? No, I don't actually know that you mentioned that. This is more, I'll grab a pinch out of the salt box and be salting stuff, and if that gets messy, then yeah. It's almost like if I see it and notice it, then I will throw it over my shoulder. All right. I love it. I'm certainly not, I mean, I'm the weirdo that steps on a crack with their left foot then has to step on a crack with their right foot.

Stuff You Should Know
A highlight from Short Stuff: History of OK

I'm Josh, and there's Chuck and Jerry's here, too, standing in for Dave, and that makes The Short Stuff OK. Thanks to Dave Ruse and howstuffworks .com and Grammarly for this, because we're talking about OK, which some people say is one of the most versatile and one of the greatest words in the English language. And I don't disagree. I don't either. I say like more, but I think OK is probably second in my vocabulary. Yeah, absolutely. Grammarly will tell you that OK can be used in myriad ways, and it's a very versatile word. It can be used as an adjective. Oh, that's OK. Yeah, that's just OK. Like how was it? Eh, OK. Right, exactly. It can be an interjection. OK. OK, let's talk. Or someone's talking too much, OK, OK, right? Yeah. It can be used in the verb sense, like give me an example. That guy's really OK -ing that boat all over the lake. OK, that's not right. More like it's being OK -ed as we speak. Oh, good, yes, thank you. All right. Or it can be used in the noun sense. You want to try that one? I'm having an OK for breakfast. Nope. We got the OK. It's all good. Ugh. I know, so boring. OK. No, it's not boring. I'm just disgusted with myself. So very versatile word, and the origin of OK, I don't even think we should go over all what kind of dumb ideas people have had, because we're pretty sure we know where it came from, right? Oh, OK. See? OK. So, yeah, we know where it came from, almost certainly, thanks to an etymologist named Alan Walker Reed, who at some point apparently put down his insects in his lab and started researching origins, I don't know why. But Reed was working back in the 1960s, and he essentially, through really hardcore, old -timey, pre -internet research, traced back the origin of OK, the letter O and the letter K, and the meaning of it as we understand it. And it's got one heck of a rump -slappin' origin, if you ask me. Yeah, he also had a newsletter called Stuff You Should Know that ran for 15 years, but he only put out four topics, because it took him so long. Yeah, took a while. But this is the 60s even. That joke was not OK. It was OK. It was OK. So what he found out is the following. In the early 19th century, when printing was sort of a new, sort of, not new, but it was cheaper to do than it had been previously, and there was an explosion of printing. And one of the things that people started putting out were something on the penny press, like these, sort of, rags that had a little bit of news to them, but also some opinion stuff, some jokes, this is what's trending, this is a little witty poem, you know, just little things like that. Dave kind of likens it to the internet of the 1830s. And there was a lot of back and forth about this stuff through the editors of these penny papers. I guess they would, they would sort of respond to one another through their own penny papers. Yeah, they would trash talk one another, kind of like how our old stale rivalry with John Strickland. Oh, gosh. Kind of like that, right? So there was that trash talking or that joking, in -joking back and forth between editors of these penny papers coincided with a trend that Reed called a craze in, starting in the summer of 1838, that's how good this guy's research was, he pinned it down to that, starting in Boston, that people started using abbreviations for everything. It was like they thought that was so hilarious in 1830s Boston. Yeah, which is funny, like you think, you might think now is so over abbreviated, like this point in time with texting in the internet, with LOLs, and like I don't even know what half of them mean, I feel like. LOL means lots of love. Lots of love, okay, that's what I thought. But the craze started back then, and here's just a few examples that Dave dug up.

of these organizations <Speech_Male> are pursuing <Speech_Male> maybe <Speech_Male> slower, <Speech_Male> it's not <Speech_Male> without opportunity, that's <Silence> for sure. <SpeakerChange> <Silence> But <Speech_Music_Male> one thing I'll add on to <Speech_Male> that, the, <Speech_Male> you know, <Speech_Male> we follow it from <Speech_Male> a phone and <Speech_Male> a device perspective, <Speech_Male> but we <Speech_Male> do continue to see <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> a move <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> off of the on <Speech_Male> premise. <Speech_Male> On <Speech_Male> premise, <Speech_Male> you <Speech_Male> see solutions into <Speech_Male> cloud <Speech_Male> based solutions <Speech_Male> and <Speech_Male> because our <Speech_Male> devices are very much tied <Speech_Male> to the cloud side <Speech_Male> of that equation. <Speech_Male> We <Speech_Male> do continue to see <Speech_Male> growth as <Speech_Male> you look at that <Speech_Male> segment, even though <Speech_Male> there might be <Speech_Male> some declines <Speech_Male> because it is a better <Speech_Male> cost efficiency <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> for the end user <Speech_Male> and they get the flexibility <Speech_Male> for <Speech_Male> whatever <Speech_Male> may come from a hybrid <Speech_Male> perspective. <Speech_Male> And <Speech_Male> they <Speech_Male> get a superior experience. <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> So it's really <Speech_Male> <SpeakerChange> there's still <Speech_Male> a value proposition <Speech_Male> that <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> rings true, <Speech_Male> no matter what the macro <Speech_Male> headwinds are. <Silence> <SpeakerChange> So <Speech_Male> I also understand <Speech_Male> that keeping <Speech_Male> it with her discussion <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> today about <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> poly HP <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> is a kind <Speech_Male> of combined all <Speech_Male> day experience <Speech_Male> for people that are <Speech_Male> working and so on, <Speech_Male> that you have an <Speech_Male> exciting new product <Speech_Male> that will be shipping <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> just a little while. <Silence> <Advertisement> <SpeakerChange> <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> Yeah, we <Speech_Male> just we're just <Speech_Male> releasing, we <Speech_Male> announced it a little bit earlier <Speech_Male> in the show as something <Speech_Male> called the Voyager <Speech_Male> free 360, <Speech_Male> which <Speech_Male> pairs <Speech_Male> some of the <Speech_Male> noise blocking <Speech_Male> technology that <Speech_Male> we've been talking about <Speech_Male> in <Speech_Male> the earbud <Speech_Male> style <Speech_Male> headset. <Speech_Male> That <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> lets us <Speech_Male> now <Speech_Male> block out the external <Speech_Male> noise, be well heard <Speech_Male> and all of our conversations. <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> And all in <Speech_Male> a nice little <SpeakerChange> <Silence> package. <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> With <Speech_Male> a really cool innovative, <Speech_Male> an option with a <Speech_Male> really cool innovative case. <Speech_Male> With <Speech_Male> a little display on <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> it to be able to <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> control <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> your call right from the <Silence> <Advertisement> case. <SpeakerChange> <Speech_Male> And, you know, we were talking <Speech_Male> just before the podcast <Speech_Male> that this might be <Speech_Male> an example of <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> where all the <Speech_Male> combined <Speech_Male> parts of poly <Speech_Male> HP have come together <Speech_Male> to <Speech_Male> create something that's <Speech_Male> ready <Speech_Male> for work <Speech_Male> and ready for <Speech_Male> sort of the way a lot of people <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> are working. <Silence> <Advertisement> <SpeakerChange> <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> Yeah, very much so. <Speech_Male> It's really designed about <Speech_Male> moving from your <Speech_Male> PC to <Speech_Male> your cell phone <Speech_Male> to <Speech_Male> whichever <Speech_Male> meaning sometimes it's <Speech_Male> your huddle room and <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> in some cases, <Speech_Male> keeping that <Speech_Music_Male> people have that headset <Speech_Male> in your ear the whole day <Speech_Male> long, just moving between <Speech_Male> which call <Speech_Male> and which environment. <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> And <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> with the flexibility to <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> carry it around <SpeakerChange> with you. <Silence> <Speech_Male> brought up another point, <Speech_Male> my understanding is that <Speech_Male> this is also, <Speech_Male> well, it is a <Speech_Male> proud poly HP <Speech_Male> product. <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> It is agnostic, <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> it will work with <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> different platforms, and so <Silence> <Advertisement> on.

"Day and have a larger collaborative experience for people who are in the office and those who are not in the office. And then I travel back home and I finish my day on my own. So I really can have this experience of a lot of different solutions from a size perspective or usage perspective all under one brand all under one solution set and it really gives a great customer experience in the process. You know, recently, we did a podcast and you guys had some announcements on the line called the edgy phones. Do the edgy phones fit into the vision that you just discussed? Yeah, absolutely. So one of the things we wanted to do with the edgy is add more beyond what we've already done with high quality voice and microphone and the pickups that we're famous for. We wanted to add things like Bluetooth and Wi-Fi into these devices so that you had ability to deploy them in more places, be more flexible as people reconfigure offices and hoteling spaces. But also if needed to take them home, but one of the cool things that we can do with these phones is link with your mobile device, be able to dial from contacts. We just released some software that we're going to let you dial from a contact on your mobile phone, dial that from your edgy phone. And then also just be part of that family where you get a superior microphone, speaker, while I'm on my PC while and be able to have a headset that's prepared to it. Or parent to it and my PC so that I get the, again, I get the benefits of both being able to focus as well as not letting conversations outside of me bleed through because I'm using the poly technology to enhance that communication. I thought that for a while poly HP's involvement in the cloud communications alliance is very interesting because it reminds everybody that cloud communications also includes products, hardware, stuff you buy and stuff you use. Yeah, it really does, you know, I deal with this quite often. People always think that it's just about an application sale. It's a licensed for someone to have access to that suite where really what we do is we take that application value and we enhance it with high quality hardware because at the end of the day, if you don't have high quality hardware at the end of that application suite, it's really not very useful. So you need to make sure that you're enabling your employees with the right type of quality. I don't, many of us went home from the pandemic. It was a mad packed, just don't get whatever you wanted. When people start to look at what they acquired over that time period, you see that some headsets don't work with some devices and go back to

And I also have with me Clint Edwards, also with poly HP, Clint, thank you for joining me today as well. It's great to be with you. Well, first thing I need to say on behalf of the CCA is thank you for being a sponsor and thank you for participating in the recent cloud connections event. It was really terrific and we learned a lot. You guys had some presentations. You were involved greatly in this. But before we dive into that, let's just sort of back up for a second. I introduced everyone today as poly HP. So what's that all about? We all know that poly and HTTP came to came together. How would you describe the company today? A great question. I appreciate you asking. It's a tremendous change for us as an organization to be able to align ourselves under such a iconic brand of HP. HP was really looking at the way our working worlds have changed. And we'll hear the new term hybrid working and certainly they saw this coming from the changes that our world

"Though never fully realize why it is that I must have forgetfulness or death. It was in one of the most open and least frequented parts of the broad Pacific that the packet of which I was super cargo fell a victim to the German sea raider. The great war was then at its very beginning, and the ocean forces of the Hun had not completely sunk to their later degradation, so that our vessel was made a legitimate prize, whilst we of her crew were treated with all the fairness and consideration, do us as naval prisoners. So liberal indeed was the discipline of our captors that 5 days after we were taken, I managed to escape alone in a small boat, with water and provisions for a good length of time. When I finally found myself adrift in free, I had but little idea of my surroundings. Never a competent navigator, I could only guess vaguely by the sun and stars that I was somewhat south of the equator. Of the longitude I knew nothing. And no island or coastline was in sight. The weather kept fair, and for uncounted days I drifted aimlessly beneath the scorching sun. Waiting either for some passing ship or to be cast on the shores of some habitable land. But neither ship nor land appeared, and I began to despair in my solitude upon the heaving vastness of unbroken blue. The change happened will stay slept. Its details, I shall never know. For my slumber, though troubled and dream infested was continuous. When at last I awake, it was to discover myself half sucked into a slimy expanse of hellish black mire, which extended about me and monotonous undulations as far as I could see, and in which my boat lay grounded some distance away. Though one might well imagine that my first sensation would be of wonder at so prodigious and unexpected a transformation of scenery, I was in reality more horrified than astonished. For there was, in the air and in the rotting soil, a sinister quality which chilled me to the very core. The region was putrid with the carcasses of decaying fish, and of other less describable things, which I saw protruding from the nasty mud of the unending plane. Perhaps I should not hope to convey and mere words, the unutterable hideousness that can dwell and absolute silence and bear an immensity. There was nothing within hearing, and nothing in sight save a vast reach of black slime. Yet the very completeness of the stillness and the homogeneity of the landscape oppressed me with a nauseated fear. The sun was blazing down from the sky, which seemed to me almost black in its cloudless cruelty. As though reflecting the inky marsh beneath my feet. As I crawled into the stranded boat, I realized that only one theory could explain my position. Through some unprecedented volcanic upheaval, a portion of the ocean floor must have been thrown to the surface exposing regions, which for innumerable millions of years had lain hidden under unfathomable watery depths. So great was the extent of the new land which had risen beneath me that I could not detect the faintest noise of the surging ocean. Strain my ears as I might. Nor were there any sea foul to prey upon the dead things. For several hours, I sat thinking or brooding in the boat, which lay upon its side, and afforded a slight shade as the sun moved across the heavens. As the day progressed, the ground lost some of its stickiness and seemed likely to dry sufficiently for traveling purposes in a short time. That night, I slept but little, and the next day I made for myself a pack containing food and water, preparatory to an overland journey in search of the vanished sea impossible rescue. On the third morning, I found the soil dry enough to walk upon with ease. The odor of the fish was maddening. But I was too much concerned with graver things to mine so slight and evil, and set out boldly for an unknown goal. All day, I forged steadily westward, guided by a faraway hummock, which rose higher than any other elevation on the rolling desert. That night, I encamped and on the following day still traveled toward the hummock, though that object seemed scarcely nearer than when I had first espied it. By the fourth evening, I attained the base of the mound, which turned out to be much higher than it had appeared from a distance. An intervening valley, setting it out in sharper relief from the general surface. Two weary to ascend, I slept in the shadow of the hill. I know not why my dreams were so wild that night. But air the waning and fantastically give us moon had risen far above the eastern plain, I was awake in a cold perspiration, determined to sleep no more. Such visions as I had experienced were too much for me to endure again. And in the glow of the moon, I saw how unwise I had been to travel by day. Without the glare of the parching sun, my journey would have cost me less energy. Indeed, I now felt quite able to perform the ascent, which had deterred me at sunset. Picking up my pack. I started for the crest of the eminence. I have said that the unbroken monotony of the rolling plane was a source of vague horror to me. But I think my horror was greater when I gained the summit of the mound and looked down the other side into an immeasurable pit or canyon whose black recesses the moon had not yet soared high enough to illumine. I felt myself on the edge of the world peering over the rim into a fathomless chaos of eternal night. Through my terror ran curious reminiscences of Paradise lost. And of Satan's hideous climb through the on fashioned realms of darkness. As the moon climbed higher in the sky, I began to see that the slopes of the valley were not quite so perpendicular as I had imagined. Ledges and outcroppings of rock afforded fairly easy footholds for a descent. Whilst, after a drop of a few hundred feet, the declivity became very gradual. Urged on by an impulse, which I can not definitely analyze, I scrambled with difficulty down the rocks and stood on the gentler slope beneath, gazing into the stygian deeps where no light had yet penetrated.

"Author, I dreamed that whole hideous crawl, and can yet feel the ooze sucking me down. Sadly, HP suffered from a terrifying condition that strikes its victim somewhere between consciousness and sleep, rendering the individual unable to move during a dream, or rather a nightmarish slash hallucinatory state. This is called sleep paralysis. It's terrifying, yet H. P. Lovecraft channeled these horrors into his writing to become, essentially, Edgar Allan Poe's successor, or as Stephen King later dubs him. The 20th century horror stories dark and baroque prince. Thus, we turn to HP for this year's Halloween special. But I realize he's a little less known than last year's featured author. Mister E a Poe. So, very briefly. Let me fill you in on this ghastly author. His life in his influence before we enter his dark realm of fictional tales. As I touched on in today's opening, HP's pain extended far beyond his distressed sleep. His life was pain. Mentally, emotionally and physically. Following the tragic loss of his grandfather and childhood home in 1904, he and his economically downgraded mother moved into a more humble dwelling down the street. She had no shortage of harsh words for her hideous son as she called the boy. Yet HP was bereaved as his mother followed in the footsteps of his deceased father by becoming a patient at the same asylum. Butler hospital. Indeed, his was a world of mental distress. And death following a gallbladder operation gone wrong, she too died in this Rhode Island asylum on May 24th, 1921. Three years later, young and parentless Howard married a fellow writer, businesswoman, and Jewish Russian immigrant. Sonja green. But there's no happy ending here. She soon lost her business and health, and though they remained friends, economic necessity put them in a state of separation. So when you went to Cleveland, while Howard remained at their formerly shared home in Brooklyn's Red Hook neighborhood. But was romantic apathy also to blame. Was Howard asexual or possibly gay. Scholars will forever wonder, but all will know for certain is that the couple amicably decoupled. Minus a full legal divorce. Howard returned to Providence in 1926. He saw other loved ones off to the grave, experienced The Great Depression, and wrote prolifically, but only for another decade before an excruciatingly painful stomach cancer claimed him. In 1937, 46 year old H. P. Lovecraft died. Poor in pain and, given his belief about humanity's smallness in the vast universe, which he called cosmicism. Likely convinced that his collection of Pulp Fiction publications and one volume of fiction would soon follow him into oblivion. But Howard was wrong. Not only did his work survive, particularly thanks to a lifelong pen pal and fellow author. But by the 1960s, a new generation fell in love with the turn of the century new englanders gothic horror science and weird fiction. HP was rediscovered, appreciated in a new light. Resurrected, he influenced a whole new generation of writers and creators, including such creative masters of horror as Guillermo del Toro and as noted above, Stephen King. His works have been translated into 25 languages and sold by the millions. In brief, if the name Lovecraft sounds unfamiliar, let me reassure you. You've been exposed to his works and his monsters in one form or another. The Twilight Zone, The Simpsons, and I would argue Stranger Things are all among a very long list of creative works that have directly referenced or indirectly drawn inspiration from this dark baroque prince. On a heavier note, H. P. Lovecraft not only saw monsters in his dreams, he allowed himself to see false monsters in his fellow human beings. Howard completely bought into the nativism and social darwinism. That swept through the early 20th century United States. He strongly supported segregation. He feared the southern and eastern Europeans arriving at Ellis island, a fear that comes out in full force in some of his tales like the horror at Red Hook. A growing recognition of HP's racism has left 21st century artists and scholars alike in a challenging position as they work in a genre soaked in his creative best, yet reckon with this messy legacy. Without pardoning his racism, some have pointed out that Howard's disturbed creative mind was just that. Disturbed, and filled with a paranoia that convinced him the world was out to get him. Another point some have raised is that, in HP's best work, his own protagonists and their openness to complexity are inconsistent with their creators most deplorable views. And of course, it's hard not to puzzle over Howard, an Ardent racist and nativist, marrying a Jewish Russian immigrant. While his impact on 20th century literature and popular culture to this day is undeniable, and highly significant to the history of sci-fi horror and more. His is truly a tormented mind, none would want to get lost in. And unquestionable master of his craft, the most influential author of horror from the progressive era. But yes, we'll just visit and be sure not to get lost. Today's foray into lovecraftian horror consists of two tales. The first of these is one of HP's most famous. The outsider. Not only is it among his finest and most celebrated works, but I'm drawn to it because of its heavily Edgar Allan Poe vibe. This one taps into Howard's own sense of loneliness and alienation as we meet an isolated protagonist imprisoned as he sees it in a decaying, dark castle. His escape leads him to a new world, we might say, where he meets people. But this escape and journey of self discovery doesn't have the outcome you'd expect. Our second tale will lead us back to HP's troubled dream from this episode's opening. Ah, yes. The short story, dagon. In it, we will meet a World War I era sailor. Captured by a German ship, he escapes on a small boat, only to find that.

"Author, I dreamed that whole hideous crawl, and can yet feel the ooze sucking me down.

Wet Notes - 9-13-21
"This is wet notes here on scuba shock radio from monday september thirteenth. Two thousand twenty one first up today is in another idea for diving with a purpose in one of the most recent newsletters from the coral restoration foundation the coral chronicles. There was a report that cr f. is teaming up with the atlantis. Dive resort in douma getty to offer a unique opportunity to participate in a week long program at the result in helping them build and maintain the largest coral nursery endowing. Actually the town where. Atlantis is located. The program is being sponsored by the coral restoration foundation. The loveland living planet aquarium and the meat foundation. The program runs from september twenty fourth to october. First two thousand twenty two there are planned educational sessions on coral ecology along with restoration efforts and techniques. You also conduct restoration. Dives along with some fun dies. This sounds really fascinating. One of the pictures into newsletter showed the table coral at apo island. I vividly remember that area when we dove air in two thousand nineteen there wasn't any pricing available in the article and you'll have to contact the hotel directly if you have the time and desire to dive with a purpose check out this program and market on your calendar. Long time ago. Donna and i lived in hawaii that was in the mid nineteen eighties. At that time we got to experience. What was probably one of the first while in walls in honolulu. If you're not familiar with wilem walls you can check them out. The wall was a large mural of the humpback whale on the side of a building near waikiki. It was quite impressive. Well it might not be a while and wall but if you happen to be near brant rock in mansfield massachusetts you can catch a the view of a mural of a large shark painted on the side of an old restaurant according to wicked local dot com. The mural was painted by a local artist. Shane leonard. Shane was a former football player at boston college. Who has a passion for painting and a passion for sharks. Now the muros on the side of the former arthur and patch restaurant that closed back in two thousand fifteen. The shark faces divers as they head down ocean street which is a one way street. So you can't miss it say. Shane says he likes the way shark. Show emotion. the photo is pretty impressive. there's no guarantee that the building won't be torn down. Now that is unoccupied but according to shane. Even if it doesn't survive it was worth doing so if you happen to be near mansfield mass check out the shark mural on ocean street about a month ago. Patio wear foundation announced their fourth annual aware week. Now this year it will run from september. Eighteenth through september twenty six two thousand and twenty one the whole idea behind aware week is to empower the global dive community to lead or take part in conservation activities in courses focused on local action for global impact in the past aware has focused on two elements marine debris and vulnerable marine species this year in concert with patties blueprint for ocean action. They're adding three more components. Climate change marine protected areas and coral reefs. Some of the ways. That dive shops can participate or by conducting aware classes like dive against debris coral conservation or the aware specialty. Also like us. You can become a one hundred percent aware dive centre where you provide a monthly contribution in support of the patty certifications you award. We are very proud to be one hundred percent aware. But here's something that. Patty aware foundation needs to work on. We need more notice as to win. Aware week is happening. I wasn't sure what was happening this year and our calendar filled up and we weren't able to get things scheduled as i mentioned at the top of the show. We've already created are twenty twenty two calendar and it would be nice to know when aware week twenty twenty two is happening. I also mentioned at the top to show that the re photo contest results were in and that i didn't win while scuba diving magazine. Magazine's two thousand and twenty one through the lens contest is also complete. The winners were recently released at scuba diving. Dot com and the photos will be revealed in september october special photo issue. They received one thousand seven hundred and nineteen photos from around the world. The contest categories included behavior compact camera macro and wide angle. The entries were judged on beauty originality and unique encounters. I check them out and they are spectacular. I only wish. I had the talent impatience to do that kind of work. Now if you wanna get a jump onto twenty twenty two contests they will start accepting entries january third two thousand twenty two and you can submit your photos through may thirty first two thousand and twenty two and finally we recently received our two thousand twenty two aqualung buyer's guide along with information on all the new products coming down from aqualung apex. So i thought. I'd give you a little preview on what's on the horizon. I from aqualung. They are releasing a new regulator the helix pro and the helix it looks like the helix pro is a mid range regular and i think it's replacing their core. It is a balanced first and second stage in his environmentally sealed with four low pressure ports and two high pressure ports. It was built for cold water and has the automatic closure device or a cd. lower end. helix is not environmentally sealed. And it doesn't have a cd and it's designed for warmer water. Also coming out in two thousand and twenty two is their new. Aqua fluck aqua flex men and aqua flex woman wetsuits. I think it's a redesign of their tried and true. Aqua flex line they also have a two millimeter. Free flex wetsuit now. The i one hundred computers going to come in a new color yellow and speaking of colors. They've added a number of different colors to various products including something called sand petrol red and orange as for eight packs. They also have a new regulator the xl four osha and it is billed as a totally sustainable regulator bay from post consumer waste it comes in grey or mint with some great etching. On the first stage. I suspect it's just like the xl four plus being an overbalanced diaphragm regulator with two hp and four l. p. ports. It looks pretty. Sharp and apex is releasing a new dive computer to the sx. It will be program can program up to six gases and monitor six transmitters. The has a titanium basil making it lightweight endurable but also has a color display. There's something more that require. Some more research It says it has in oh to analyze or onboard. But no to sell gotta check that out a little bit. There's a lot more out there and over time. I'll give you more updates from both aqualung and apex. Well that wraps up wet notes. Here on scuba shock. Radio for monday september thirteenth. Two thousand twenty one

One the third wall i think when it comes to how women are portrayed in a particular genre feel. That's less to do with anything. I wanna make a blanket statement about Is more to do with the individual authors on because there are authors in science fiction. Who are writing. Really they're women authors especially who are writing really wonderful female characters female centric stories are trans author's writing stories and there are male authors. Who might you know they might be writing very sexist stories with not very many female characters or with characters who are sidelined or they might be doing slightly better job just depending on the man ends on when we think about how gender is portrayed in genre. It's really less a question of anything you can say about genre. As a whole it's more a question of which offers you see getting the most press almost on what those authors are doing and in terms of cosmic horror. You know obviously like you said. It's a stronger with a very tarnished history. Hp lovecraft was horrifically racist eating by the standards of his time and several other ists as well So so we see what i've been.

Apple and Facebook Are All Ears
"Okay fair warning. We are about to get a bit meta this. Podcast episode is about the future of podcasts and why to tech companies apple and facebook are plunging feet first into the audio pool recruits. Peter kafka's. you're talking about.

But they're the ones who sort of brought it to the mainstream back in two thousand five and then they pretty much left it alone. They have not tried to do much with podcasting. They have not assigned many people They haven't put much resources toward it and they haven't tried to make any money and now that's changing a little bit. They are going to allow individual podcast creators and publishers to sell subscriptions to podcast within apple. And so there might be a sm- they're gonna say smallish business. I think it's gonna be a huge business but it's gonna be something for apple so they've gone for making no money on it to making potentially some money so apple's going basically take a cut of podcast revenue that's made by a show host or pretty sure is that is that right. That's exactly right. It's the same same model. They have for apps and services like hp max etcetera. The publisher over makes the thing keeps seventy percent. Apple keeps thirty percent if you keep doing it for more than a year that cut goes to eighty five and fifteen
