Dana Young is one of those people who is just unyieldingly passionate about technology. But so are a lot of people. What makes Dana unique is the way he is applying that obsession -- specifically with voice activated devices -- to the vacation rental space. He got started in our industry managing a property with his mom. But the ramifications of his singular and relatively straightforward "Unlocked" tactic reach far beyond any set of walls.   If you want to innovate like Dana, consider a demo with our friends at PointCentral (free HVAC Analytics included from this landing page): https://www.pointcentral.com/vrmb/ Here are some links referenced in the show: https://www.virtualconciergeservice.com http://www.vrma.org Amazon Alexa Google Home    

Voice assistants are growing rapidly in popularity -- but at the same time, the privacy concerns and security issues with popular home assistant devices like Amazon Echo and Google Home are also peaking. Earlier in July, Amazon came under fireafter acknowledging that it retains the voice recordings and transcripts of customers' interactions with its Alexa voice assistant indefinitely - raising questions about how long companies should be able to save highly-personal data collected from voice assistant devices. Amazon continues to find itself in hot water regarding privacy policies around its Echo devices. In April, Amazon came under fire after a report revealedthe company employs thousands of auditors to listen to Echo users' voice recordings. And last year, Amazon inadvertentlysent 1,700 audio files containing recordings of Alexa interactions by a customer to a random person –and later characterized it as a "mishap" that came down to one employee's mistake. Against this backdrop, Threatpost talks about the top privacy concerns regarding voice assistants with Tim Mackey, principal security strategist at the cybersecurity research center at Synopsys - and what types of regulation aim to curb these concerns.

 In today’s episode I go through how to create several income streams (1:1, classes, online, niche market package) so that you don’t get the ‘peaks and valleys’ of the new year and summer rush and the August and December deadness. Also I’ve included some of the other streams to consider as your business or personal brand grows. I also talked about starting a podcast, my secret for getting some top guests on my Brian Keane Podcast and my thoughts on Amazon Alexa/Google Home and the future of voice. I recorded this from my car to show how to do a podcast can be done with minimal equipment.   Blog post: https://briankeanefitness.com/create-multiple-revenue-streams-so-you-never-get-stuck-for-cash/ How To Move Your Personal Training Business Online Free Ebook: https://briankeanefitness.com/personal-fitness-business-online-ebook/  Business Seminar Dublin: https://briankeanefitness.com/product/full-day-business-seminar-dublin/

HDTV Buying Guide 2018 Tis the season for us to go shopping and to continue to help you spend your money - one of our favorite times of the year. If you or anyone in your life is looking for a new UHD TV this Christmas, but still aren't sure which one to buy, we've got you covered. We each pick two TVs and one ‘money is no object' / ‘dare to dream' TV for you to consider. Ara's Picks LG UK6570PUB 4K HDR Smart LED UHD TV w/ AI ThinQ® - 70" Class $999.99 Seventy inches for $1,000??? Are you kidding me? This can make any family room feel like  media room. Even though it's 70 inches it does not dominate the room. Measuring in at 61.9" (157cm) x 38.6" (98cm) x 11.7” (29cm) and weighing only 92 lbs (41Kg) it can be bought, moved, and installed by just about anyone. Features include: active HDR 4K (HDR10 and HLG), webOS 4.0, ultra Luminance which enhances brightness and provides better contrast, quad-Core Processor to continually process the video for best results regardless of source, ultra Surround Sound but really who cares about that? Hard to believe but this is my budget TV. It also comes in 75” and 86”. Sony XBR75X900F 75-Inch 4K Ultra HD Smart LED TV $2800 My second pick goes up in size picture quality and price (although the TV is available in 50 - 85 inch sizes). The reason I picked this Sony is it is a full array LED architecture which will give you deep blacks and high contrast. Also I have been very impressed with the X1 processor on Sony TVs. This model comes with the X1 Extreme processor which improved your 1080p content. The X900F can handle HDR10, Hybrid Log-Gamma and Dolby Vision™ making it a TV that is pretty much future proof! Other features include: compatible with Amazon Alexa & Google Home to change channels & more, dimensions 66 x 40 3/4 x 14 inch, 4 HDMI inputs. Braden's Picks TCL 65" 65R617 4K UHD Dolby Vision HDR Roku Smart LCD TV $999 It wouldn't be a Braden TV list without a TCL on it. TCL's 6-Series delivers 4K HDR picture performance and the Roku TV smart platform in one. Dolby Vision for greater brightness and contrast, as well as a fuller palette of rich colors. TCL's Contrast Control Zone technology individually optimizes the image across up to 120 zones for better contrast. The 6-Series models' iPQ Engine™ provides precise color replication while HDR Pro Gamma is supposed to improve HDR performance in any setting. It has an enhanced remote control with Voice Control and 3 HDMI 2.0a ports with HDCP 2.2 (1 ARC). Add a pair of Roku TV Wireless Speakers for soundbar performance with almost no setup or configuration. It's a great TV that can be the center of an awesome home theater or an impressive addition to a bonus room or game room. Samsung QN75Q6 Flat 75" QLED 4K UHD 6 Series Smart TV $2499 Stepping up a little in size and opting for better picture quality requires we more than double the price. And this isn't even the top of the line QLED series, but as the entry line, you can still get a pretty good value on a really good set. A 75” TV is a really good size for just about any room in most homes and QLED has emerged as a strong second place option to the significantly more expensive OLED sets on the market. In addition to the stellar QLED picture quality and HDR, it has a bunch of cool features like Ambient Mode that can put art on the TV so it blends perfectly with your décor, and can even play a bit of light background music. Bixby Voice search lets you search for content, flip channels, or even ask questions such as the current weather using only your voice. OneRemote automatically detects and controls all your compatible connected devices and content. The universal guide brings your favorite content from multiple devices and apps together in one easy-to-browse menu. And you can even download the SmartThings App on your mobile to control and monitor your new QLED TV and connected devices all in one screen! Ultimate Christmas Present Ara: Samsung QN88Q9FAMFXZA 88" Q9F QLED 4K TV $20,000 This TV will make you forget about your projector! QLED has not received the accolades that it really deserves. With Samsung's Elite Black+ with Infinite Array backlight system the Q9 gets very close to OLED in black and contrast. It can also provide a brighter picture. The only real knock we have is that off angle viewing is not as good as OLED. However, with a TV this size is there really someplace in the room that is off angle? Keep that in mind if this is a possibility for you. Other features include: 100% color volume, smart TV, OneRemote automatically detects and controls your connected devices (satellite, cable, Blu-ray, soundbar) and content with no manual programming required, Burn-In Free for life, Guaranteed. Braden: Samsung QN85Q900RAFXZA 85" Class Q900 QLED Smart 8K UHD TV $14,999 Not quite as big as Ara's 88 inch Samsung, but this 85 inch set is $5000 less and, yep, 8K. Before you say that 8K is a waste, there's no content and there won't be for a long time, an 85” TV is pretty big. It can actually be divided into the equivalent of 42 inch 4K TVs.  Although it has 4 HDMI inputs, it doesn't appear to have this split screen capability as a native feature, but it should. But you get all of the awesome quality of a QLED television, with all of the advanced features of a top of the line samsung, and 8K. What's not to love? Ok, sure, you can get an 85 inch 4k LCD for $2500, so it might be a it early to plop down such a premium for 8k. Or is it?  

Remember this one? Haven’t heard much about it lately as Amazon Alexa & Google Home have taken centre stage. Well, Sonos lists on NASDAQ today. Will it find a place of relevance in the new world of Voice? #alexa #goglehome #voice #future #nasdaq #IPO #futurism

This episode talks about my predictions of how voice technology will play out, and how it will impact the music industry.
