Well, there we are, folks. We're halfway through the year. It's official. It's crazy to think that we are a week into July already. Isn't that insane? But there it is. The dates, the calendar doesn't lie. We're a week into July. I've got a very busy week coming up. I'm actually doing a lot of driving this week, including family. I've got a big day recording with Fennec tomorrow, as always, and we are doubling down at the moment because we're trying to bank enough movie and EV shows to make sure that we can... Get cover off my little break at the end of the year with the family in America after the E for an Apple event. Anyway, that's that aside. So I can't tell you why yet, but on Thursday, I'll be on the Today Show talking from a very remote regional area.
So I've got to drive there on Wednesday night. So after I finish recording and editing this week's shows, I've got to get in the car. Luckily, I've got a big Kia EV9 GT on loan. So I will take that from Fennec and he'll take the van that I've got. And I'll drive to the country. And then straight after the live cross, I'm going to drive to Canberra. where I'm going to talk to the MG Club of Canberra about electric cars, because my uncle, who passed away a few months ago, was a long-time member of the MG Club, and he asked me to come and talk to them about EVs. I'm fulfilling a commitment to my late uncle to talk to his mates about electric cars. So I'm going to drive down to Canberra to do that. I'll drive back Thursday night.
I will get a bit of work done on Friday. Jeez, I've got the dentist as well. What a shocker. And then on Friday afternoon, I'm driving to Yonge with my kids. for just we'll get there that night we'll spend a day seeing the great nieces and nephews or great niece and great nephew because Victoria really wants to see them and get cuddles and then I'll drive back on Saturday night so I haven't done the calculation yet but I'm tipping it's going to be I reckon a couple of thousand k's driving fully electric and to very remote areas too so it's going to be a fascinating week for me electric car driving wise Anyway, that's just my week. This week on the AFTM podcast, we're going to follow up with Margaret, who had been making songs for elderly residents at an aged care home where her husband is a resident.
And it's just a beautiful story. And we've managed to dip into the hip pocket and buy some things to make sure she can do exactly what she wanted to do for those residents so looking forward to catching up with her Damien's on the line ready to talk about deals for or we should not say deals it's deals but a little bit of a Not a loophole. What's the opposite of a loophole? A potential trap for people switching NBN carriers. So Damien's a very savvy shopper and buyer, so we'll get that from him. But most importantly, we're going to talk to Chris Mayer from Hisense. Now, Chris is, I think, their national training manager, would be his – title at Hisense and I've known Chris for many years and he is and I'm not saying this because they're a great company and they're great supporters of VFTM or for any other reason he is just an absolute guru when it comes to knowledge on TVs so he knows the TV market very well so I thought we'd
double down and triple confirm our understanding of RGB. And also I want to talk to you about just generally backlighting on TVs.
