Good morning, it is 24th of November 2025. This is my little time for a bit of peace. You know, coming here, really still in bed for another, I don't know, four hours.

Maybe make a recording, then have my breakfast, watch a bit of TV, maybe listen to some music. But today Vinnie has decided to come out and join me, and just stare at me. Just stare, because he wants a t-r-e-e-e-e-e-e-t, and all I've done is give him some food.

He's not content, he's not. Are you? Eh? He's not content at all. He's not even yawning, he's wide awake.

He doesn't normally get up until about 9am, it's 20 to 6 in the morning. It's about average time that I get up. I sometimes get up at 5am, sometimes get up at 6am, I'm usually up by 6am, go to bed about 10am.

But for some reason, he's just, he's just awake. I don't know why, I don't know. So anyway, hello, welcome to jasonnewland.com, my name's Jason Newland.

No, even me yawning didn't start him yawning. Please only listen when you can safely close your eyes. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

I don't know what to talk about if I'm honest with you. Why am I even doing a recording? It's supposed to be Monday's Boring Objects. I don't know, I don't know.

I've looked through what looks, it looks actually like my internet has begun to be a bit better. I'll do another speed test. Seems to have speeded up a little bit compared to last night.

Last night is almost non-existent. So I'm now getting 17, 16, 17 megabytes. Instead of, I think it's sometimes less than one.

So that's pretty good. Yeah. It's not great, 16 megabytes is not good.

But, well, upload 0.63 megabytes. So if I was to upload anything from this, it would take about a year. Just for one audio file.

A whole year. And I might be exaggerating, but not by much. Maybe 7 months.

You're exaggerating by 7 months. No, it is 7 months instead of a year. I was going to say, because I thought you meant it was 3 months then.

That would make sense if there was 10 months in a year. But it's 12 months, isn't there? Oh, did you forget that, did you? As you were talking to yourself, you forgot that it's 12 months. Yeah, I actually did, it's weird, isn't it? It's too early in the morning to know how many months there are in a year.

For me, it's like, okay, how many leaves on that tree? I don't know. It's a second question, really. It's not though, is it? But, you know what I mean.

Still, don't ask me questions. Stop it. So this is the first, I don't know, it's the first in this series.

It's not the first of anything. It's just a recording. First thing in the morning.

I can't be bothered to give it a different name. I've got a bit of a cough. It's not warm in here.

I'll be honest with you, it's not warm. I can't figure out the the heating system. I've only lived here 10 and a half years, but sometimes it's way too hot.

And other times, it just ain't warm at all. It seems that the colder it is, the less likely the heating is going to come on. And I don't understand why.

It makes no sense. Hmm. I haven't been able to upload anything to TikTok the last few days.

Even my phone is cold. Because the phone, is it made of glass or I don't know what it's made of, but it's cold. See, what speed am I getting on the phone? This is the internet on the phone.

37, 38. It's pretty good. It should be the same really, shouldn't it? I think the result is going to depend upon which service I use.

So if I go to Fast, which is another one, fastinternetspeed.com instead of Oopla or whatever it was I was using. So let's go on this one. Come on baby.

Come on. Give me some sugar. It's not even opening the page up very fast.

Wow. This is even worse. 11 megabytes per second.

19. 24. Oh, wow.

53, 32. 27. It's all over the place.

So I'm getting 30 on there. Let's do it again now because it's only just the page just opened. Now I'm getting minus 600.

27. 29. 36.

OK, so yeah. So the internet seems to be back to working. I'm not quite sure what's different but I'm definitely not using the mobile phone data.

So if I go into TikTok. I just did a big sneeze. Big sneeze.

So what I've been doing is uploading the latest recordings or you know to my TikTok thing. Let's go to YouTube. Let's see if I'm able to download anything because before it wouldn't allow it.

Would not allow it. Would not, would not, would not allow it. Right, OK.

So let's just go to I finished Ozark which is what I did yesterday. So edit and I'll just save the name or the title or the description, whatever you want to call it. And then I go back and save to device.

So this will save the video. It's from YouTube so it's not, I mean it's a video but it's still an audio you know. Every time I record a podcast episode and upload it, it gets transferred automatically up the drain to YouTube.

And then in the case of Instagram or TikTok or Facebook or X I can save it to my phone and then I can trim it so it's under a minute under a minute, under an hour. And then I can upload it to those different places. And that's just I don't know people do listen to them so it's just another I guess not everybody wants to listen to an hour and a half.

Some people are unable to save. OK let's try again. Let's try again.

Maybe 10 minutes is enough. Maybe 20 minutes is enough to drift off. Perhaps an hour and a half is not required.

Right, I close the window. The window is open. That's why it's so living cold in here.

So it's not allowing me to save the video for some reason. I don't quite know why. What have I done? Save to device.

Two times I tried and it said unable to. Now admittedly I've had this problem before. So I'll just see if it happens again.

If it does then I'll just give it a rest for now. A little bit annoying. I've definitely got a little bit of cold in me today.

Unable to save. Please check your internet connection and try again. Internet connection is fine.

Perhaps I do need to check. Let's have a look. What's the internet connection? Seems fine.

Mobile service data's on. Bluetooth's on. Personal hotspot's on.

Everything's fine. This near change. Let's check the data speed again on my phone.

Wow. Zero. I do wonder if someone's able to hack my internet and they're using it because this is going again.

Right. OK. It's OK on my laptop but on my I know what I need to do.

2.7 megabytes. That's just ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous.

Let me see if I can sort this out. It might be secure my connection. Maybe having the security on would help.

I don't know. I had a dream last night or during the night where I met up with a couple of comedians and we were writing jokes. It was funny.

Kind of like I'd found my writing partners as it were. I think I was a fair bit younger. Right.

This is not working. This is really really silly. Why? Why? Why? Disconnect.

I'm going to disconnect to see if that will help me. Alright. Yeah.

So that's giving me megabytes now. Good. So let's try the old safety device one more time.

I only tried it 17 times. Give it another go. See if I can get that video downloaded.

The thing is I struggle a little bit with the mobile phone because sometimes I just want to use the data. Just use the data. And I don't know why I can't use the data.

Because the data How many more times can I say data to make me want to watch Star Trek. The data is faster than my Wi-Fi or than my broadband on the phone. But for some reason I'm going to have to go through the settings to figure out how to do this because something is blocking it.

It's very slow anyway. Unable to save. So what I need to do If I go to settings Let's do this together because it's fun.

Mobile Mobile service Mobile data Network solutions Selection rather, sorry. Mobile data for YouTube 702 gigabytes for my personal hotspot Current period 985 gigabytes Amazon Music Automatically use mobile data when Wi-Fi connectivity is poor Yes I thought that would just be an obvious thing to do. iCloud drive When not connected to Wi-Fi use mobile network to transfer documents and data Yes of course iCloud backup When not connected to Wi-Fi use your mobile networks to automatically backup to iCloud This could, this may cause you to exceed your data plan.

Of course I don't have I've got unlimited Blimey After all that All of that So let's go back to YouTube Right Maybe that's what it is It should work now It should work Safety device Go on, let's see Wow, it's a lot quicker now Still not like super quick It's definitely quicker It's a lot slower when I just sit here And I don't say anything Watching it definitely is quite slow But technically it's I think it's quicker than it was It's moving around I'm thinking the way it's going It's going

to be fine I would have known about 5 4 3 Unable to save Because of network problems See That didn't work did it What else can I do I can do the settings for YouTube Unless If I just log out of Wi-Fi So maybe If I just use it as data only Data Save to device Saving Oh it's just It's shooting around now Saving And this is just using data Unable to save Networking problems It's just winding me up Man Winding me up Ok, what else could it be Let's have a look Wi-Fi,

better put Wi-Fi back on Generally Unless it's because I've got my Bluetooth on No Activities Notifications Don't want notifications Focus iCloud Apps, let's have a look at the apps So if I go to YouTube YouTube apps Local network Right YouTube location when shared Photos Never Need to give my location There's no point On YouTube Photos, full access Local network Microphone Local network That's the internet Camera Siri No Siri I don't like Siri I mean not the person Search Notifications off Live activities I don't know what that means Mobile data What

does live activities mean I don't know I'll come back to that So let's see if this does the job now Let's see You never know Save Ding dong Come on Give me some clouds To wash my face with My beard is scraping on the microphone I do apologise I actually thought it was a cloud A cloud Was brushing against the right side of my face Just keeping me company Unable to save Again I don't understand what to do then So what's the network You know there's an easy way around this

I could probably just ask ChatGBT what to do next OK should I do that ChatGBT My iPhone Is Is saying Unable To save My YouTube Vid To my device YouTube won't allow direct affix To your premium make sure you're signed in Yeah I'm gaudy I've done that Not enough storage Ooo Didn't think about that Maybe not enough storage So if I go If I go to the Phone And delete All the different things One two Actually no there's not much Storage taken up actually That puts that one out Out of

the window Delete 8 That's not it Can't be it The YouTube app can get stuck in a loop Restart the phone Ooo OK Let's restart the phone And try again That's the same old IT advice isn't it If you try turn it Turn it off And on back again On back again Back on again The amount of times I used to hear that In the past and I say yeah course I have And then I go and do it And it worked I remember once I phoned up It was about

broadband And I was on the phone for about an hour And a half And I was getting so frustrated Because I was trying everything he was telling me You know Turn it on Turn it off Get on your laptop Try and find this And nothing was working And I looked over And I realised that the thing wasn't connected I don't know if you remember The old broadband machines Where you'd have to collect a cable Have to connect a cable Into it It wasn't From the phone line It was not connected

And Oh dear Oh dear oh dear oh dear I didn't tell The person I was speaking to I was too embarrassed to be honest It wasn't that I was trying to just Be a fruid Be a fraud Be a I wasn't trying to pull The eyes over his wall I just Genuinely was embarrassed And then I plugged it in And I said Your magic I don't know what you've done But you've fixed it Thank you so much I love you forever and ever and ever Which was I think a little

bit over the top But it's ok I didn't mind So let's see if this has worked Let's see I'll give this a try now Yeah I finished Ozark It was It was sad To come to the end But at the same time You know It's just It can't move on Nothing lasts forever So I have to decide On my next tv show I'm not really sure I'd like to be I'd like to start one That's completed So I can watch the whole thing Unable to save still So go to YouTube

studio app Ok YouTube studio app That's weird YouTube Studio Tap the three dots Select download If it fails Tap edit in your YouTube studio To save to device Maybe that's where I'm going wrong YouTube Maybe I'm Because I'm using the app So maybe if I stopped using the app Edit video Download Save Save to device I'll try on this route I opened it up in a Internet window rather than using the app But I don't know I don't know if it's going to work I don't know There's no way of

really knowing This until it happens Well For me there isn't Because I don't know what I'm doing If you want I can show you exactly how To get your own YouTube videos On to your iphone So you can upload them To your tiktok instagram Using the safest method Ok downloading your YouTube studio Google drive Or directly from your YouTube account Just tell me Ok Mine Open your YouTube studio app Go to content Tap your videos Tap three dots Select download video If it still shows here Tap the video Tap edit

Scroll more options Save video to device This bypasses The YouTube app restrictions Or method two Use a web browser Safari Or chrome on iphone Unable to Open safari Go to studio.YouTube.com Switch to desktop mode Go to content Click the video Hit download Ok let's try that one So Studio So what is it Studio Studio.YouTube Studio Studio Dot YouTube YouTube Studio Dot YouTube Dot com Ok Oh Why Is it doing that YouTube Studio No It's got it the wrong way round Studio YouTube Studio dot YouTube Dot com Right Ok I think

I'm there now YouTube studio So There's still no three dots Latest public Published content Hmmm So I go to content View all videos Save to device Allow full access Unable to save Cannot be saved because of an unknown problem Ok Ok Hmmm Very strange I wonder what it is What do you reckon Seems a little bit Unnecessary Wanna just Allow it to save That would make sense That is one of the things that Annoys me a little bit about The internet Websites Apps Phones All that stuff Laptops Don't When they

work It's good But when they stop working properly Eh You know what I mean Eh Don't appreciate it really Don't enjoy it as much Like having my internet down for Four days pretty much Still unable to save Hmmm Very very Unusual Sometimes YouTube blocks Downloads for high resolution If you uploaded in 4K Change playback quality To 480 Ok Playback quality How do I even do that Edit Playback quality I mean It's just A podcast that's been uploaded So it's gonna be low anyway Not gonna be 4K Sometimes YouTube blocks downloads Right So let's go see Whether or not Resolution,

visibility, public, quality No, can't change that Eh How very strange This is not I wonder why Why is it doing that Anyone Anyone Maybe if I go to the actual website itself Right Turn the volume down So maybe I can Download it Downloading Keep the app open to download faster It's not showing me Any kind of progress On the download So how do I know if it's downloaded When will I know Still no sign No sign No sign of it being downloaded Or anything Give me a little bit of a

Oooh Downloading It's just Like a little circle It's chasing itself around Head is chasing the tail Tail is chasing the head Oooh But it's not giving any kind of Idea of Progress It's just Almost buffering Kind of Even with that window closed It's still not warming it Very strange I got absolutely soaked yesterday Absolutely soaked See Vinnie's gone to sleep He's fast asleep now I always heard his name mentioned He's so funny Makes me laugh I can talk Normally in his eye His ears are just there Before I say Vinnie

His ears move Yep In fact he just looked up In fact he's not just looking up He's getting up and walking towards me I think No he's moving around You okay baby You didn't want me near you You had but When I'm trying to make a recording I was thinking about doing Something a bit different But I couldn't do that With him crunching on a bone Because at this time of the morning I have to talk I would say that I talk gentle anyway But this time of the morning I

need to talk much more gentle Quieter Because I don't want to wake up the neighbours Now I don't think generally I talk really loud But at the same time This is a lot quieter Than I would probably talk Like a lower level You know A lower level Yeah It's downloaded So let's see Where is it downloaded to though Where is it downloaded to So that worked Is it downloaded to My files Ooh Is it downloaded to My images No it's not Is it downloaded to Files Where is files Files No

iCloud Recents Out I'm kind of surprised that Lost didn't bring out A new season How weird It's got all these People that are in the show Yet one Of the other Quite a main character Through the whole thing Just got him a picture of me As a kid And he's not a kid in the show Very strange Hmm Alright I just want to check this Not really relevant But See I don't understand it So Skyler This is the kid He's one of the He's one of the kids Of the main

characters And he's in the show Four seasons And they say He's worth around 500 grand For four seasons Of a really popular tv show He should have A lot more than that Shouldn't he I'm just thinking You know I just It's got nothing to do with me Really has it But I just thought He'd be getting at least 50 to 100 grand Per episode So if I go Earnings Ozark How much did he get For Ozark Skyler Gertner Salary How much is Skyler Ozark Ok Turned his youngest mother Right So

this is This is what I don't get It's like It was a big tv show I just assumed Should be worth A lot of money He'd be getting huge amounts According to Superstars bio Young actor has a net worth Estimated $72,000 I suppose My What I'm trying to put forward Is If the adults Are getting paid Probably half a million Per episode He should be getting His fair share You know what I mean So Yeah It says here Jason Bateman This 2017 Jason Bateman and Laura Linney Were both paid an

estimated $300,000 For each episode of Ozark I mean they would be paid the most And Jason Bateman I think it's Jason Bateman's Actually it's his project Yeah I suppose He would have got paid a lot more In the later episodes I hope he did Because most of them are getting paid $300,000 per episode And you come out Of four years And you've got like $100,000 Which is a lot of money Still but Okay So we've done 50 50 episodes $300,000 So what's that 3 3, 6, 9, 12 1,000 That's over £25 3 3,

6, 9, 12 It's $15,000,000 And he comes out with $500 or something That doesn't seem fair does it I just thought it would be quite cool to Be 16 or whatever Or 18 A bit like Harry Potter You know be a child star And come out of it and just be Set Completely set up for Ever and ever As long as you want to I mean It's got to be cool That's why I'm waiting Just to find out that My childhood was just a big A big TV show I didn't

realise that I was Participating Just waiting for that Check to come through The subsidiaries Subsidiaries Subsiduals Whatever they call them So I'm going to get my Breakfast Ready It is Monday 24th Of October 2025 25 I think the Budget is this week In England or UK Is it Thursday 27th And then The last day of this month Is on Sunday Wow So in one weeks time We begin Another December Another December What have we got on Facebook Facebook Facebook I tell you what these posts On Facebook Here we go these

Absolute Pointless posts Crafty Panda OK Some of it is Is it called rage baiting Because no matter what You put People are going to disagree with each other So this has got 1.1 thousand comments For a pointless post Here's the question If a person from 1970 Suddenly found themselves In 2024 What would Astonish them the most Why 2024 Why not 2025 As that's the year we are in Seems a bit random doesn't it And why 1970 Let's see some of the comments I was born in 1943 I knew someone Born

in 1943 Would start out Saying that I was born in 1943 Says Clarita Clarissa I'm still alive and kicking In 2025 So I find your question Very interesting You act as if 1970 Is such a long time ago OK I don't think she's quite got the answer How can you tell when Someone is 85 They tell you They tell you I'm 85 you know I'm 97 you know You act as if 1970 Is a long time ago It was a year I was born And it is a long time ago

now Russell the plumber says Glad you're still alive Why has she had to put I'm still alive and kicking In 2025 Well yeah you wouldn't be able to write this If you weren't would you Glad you're still alive 1970 is 56 Years ago whereas 1943 Was only 27 years Previous to 1970 So 1970 is a long time ago That's from Russell the plumber I wonder what he does for a living And then Betty Boopy says Clarita Crabtree I was born in November 1943 Also I didn't think 1970 Was all that long ago either It's all

down to perspective Isn't it I mean I don't think 1990 Was that long ago but It kind of is Wow I think how young You felt in 1970 Someone is now correct Dr.

Graham Cigarette Neuropathic physician I'm not sure if that's an actual real job Clarita This is to Clarita Crabtree They said if you Suddenly found yourself in 2024 Clarita Clarita Crabtree 1970 Was long ago LOL So it's either lots of love or Laugh out loud One of them But then Christopher D.

James Says to Clarita Crabtree Clarita But think of what you've seen And think of how many Changes Since that time We've grown so different Right this is no sentences How things changed Since that time We've grown so different So fast That it's a long time Compared to the way people act And treat themselves Okay if we go back to the original question A person Is living in 1970 And suddenly they get taken back They move forward to 2024 A similar thing Was done wasn't it With that TV show Where the

police Cop detective From the modern times Gets shot And is Basically is in a coma And he goes back to The 1970s And It's a really good show I can't remember the name of it now Really good show There was two different versions of the show One with a bloke and one with a woman But with the same cast I think The rest of the cast was the same And What was it called TV show Where detective Comes back to life The Returned No that's not the one TV show Where

Detective I can't even spell detective Wakes up In past Life on Mars What It tells a story of Moscow police captain Mikhail Soloroi Hikari In 2012 During a pursuit Of suspect and wakes up in hospital 1979 Oh It was It was originally It wasn't a British TV show To start with Because this particular TV show It was Sam Tyler And Gene Hunt That's weird I don't know what the Russian thing is all about Oh I don't know It's not saying anything about that Episodes international The original version Was also broadcast

in Canada So I have a Ok so different countries have done it as well So I think the whole thing is Life on Mars The fact that it was such a different Place to be To go back from 2006 Yeah 2006 All the way back to 1973 And things were different back then It's just like things were different 15 years ago Always changing Always changing Cold in here Let's just have another quick look At I'm going to go and get my food Go and get my Bricky My Bricky wicky Bricky

wicky So on that note I'm going to say Ciao Ciao ciao Bye bye See you later So thank you for listening Remember to be kind to yourself You deserve to be happy And be gentle with yourself you deserve to feel safe. Lots of love. Bye, bye, bye.

Bye, bye, bye.
