Let's Do The News! (September 11, 2013)

Richard: Now, the news and big news from Apple because they've launched two new iPhone 5 models which caters on different kind of consumer demographics. Here it is, first up is the iPhone 5S, here it is...

iPhone 5S
(ooh)

Richard: And oh! There's the more colorful and cheap cousin, the iPhone 5C, here it is...

iPhone 5C

Jeremy: Hold it. Hold it. Hold it. Two versions of the iPhone 5?! One is the S and one is the C?!

Richard: Yeah. That was announced by Apple themselves.

Jeremy: Now what makes me confused is...what is the difference between the 5S and the 5C?

James: Well, it maybe the letters but...according to our sources, the 5C costs $99 for the 16GB while the 32GB model costs about $199. The iPhone 5S, on the other hand, costs $199 for the 16GB model up to $399 for the 64GB. Annoyingly, the 64GB iPhone 5S costs the same as the PS4 but then we're now onto the real part of the specs sheet.

Jeremy: What is it?

James: Well, says here the 5C features an A6 chip, ultrafast LTE wireless, an 8MP iSight camera, and iOS 7. The 5S, on the other hand, features an A7 chip, a Touch ID fingerprint identity sensor, ultrafast LTE wireless, an iSight camera with a larger 8MP sensor, and iOS 7.

Jeremy: Wait, the 5S now comes with fingerprint recognition? What was that? No need for passcodes? Just fingerprints?

James: Yes. Seems that Apple's getting clever in making the 5S more secured for the users because with one fingerprint, that's it. The 5S's yours.

Jeremy: Now that was fine by first but annoyingly, it's not worth it for those who owned last year's iPhone 5 because some people say that Apple spent most of their R&D on a fingerprint lock that was nothing more of a gimmick for the 5S. What's annoying about that was...why would it need a Gold color? What are you? Some sort of bling-bling hotshots?

(audience laughing)

Jeremy: Also, the 5C, what really annoyed me that some people said that the 5C was nothing more of a painted PLASTIC and what surprises me that it weighs more than the old iPhone 5. It's true. Weighs more!

(audience laughing)

Jeremy: What are they thinking? Shouldn't Apple keep on improving rather than just being...well, I was gonna say "regular" but who cares about these. It's not worth the upgrade anyway...

(audience laughing)

Jeremy: Anyway, last night, there was some flood going on because of the rains brought out by, no. Not Habagat. But, the ITCZ or the Inter Tropical Convergence Zone. Because of all that waist-deep flooding, the whole roads are stuck in traffic and some people had to take on the MRT to get through destinations. Now, what seems amusing that there are some celebs taking the MRT to get through their destinations, especially Kris Aquino, who was currently the talk of the town when she posted her pic about herself taking the MRT. Anyone seen it?

(audience murmuring)

Richard: Well, I do.

Jeremy: Well, based on her experience, she calls her ride with MRT a "memorable experience". Memorable experience? What was that?! That's nothing. There's nothing "memorable" about riding the MRT? Everyday people are riding on it. Anyway, look at what they react about this:



Jeremy: And then, this...


(audience laughing)

James: Is it class perspective or is everyone around the Metro are reacting about Kris Aquino's MRT ride?

Jeremy: Beats me but not just her, there were a number of celebs riding the MRT last night; Anne Curtis, Enchong Dee, Julia Montes, oh, there's even the boxer Manny Pacquiao riding the MRT last night! So, what do you guys think? When you see a celeb riding an MRT, do you think a celeb might said that it's their "memorable experience"?

(murmuring)

Jeremy: Oh well. Even the rich and famous had to take public transport in case of heavy traffic but I'm not happy about it.

(audience laughing)

Jeremy: Anyway, there has been numerous reports about Zamboanga City right now because...Well, there was a clash between the government troops and the MNLF rebels, which caused so much havoc all over Zamboanga. Seems that everyone living in this city are in panic mode right now because...

James: Because what?

Jeremy: Well, I was gonna say they could get themselves trapped in a middle of a crossfire between the troops and the rebels. Oh great, there goes the revolution. No no, not the TV show which the new season starts on NBC this month. I'm talking to a different kind of revolution out there and that's going to scare innocent bystanders out there. Ooh...this is taking too much war stuff around here. Makes me wanna hide on the bomb shelter....

(audience laughing)

Richard: Well, not from us, sucker! Might as well be trapped in a war economy rather than saving your butts somewhere else!

(audience laughing)

Jeremy: Oh, come on! Give me a chance, okay?

(audience laughing)

James: Hey, have you guys seen the new X-Trail?

Jeremy: What?

James: The new Nissan X-Trail! Look at this...

2014 Nissan X-Trail


Richard: Whoa, what was that?

Jeremy: I don't know, it now looks like a Murano in here but what just happened? It's now turned into another one of those...things that we did last time.

James: You mean crossovers?

Jeremy: Yeah. I was gonna said that but whatever it is, it became nothing more of a caravanner's car. What just happened?

(audience laughing)

Jeremy: Anyway, we're still months away from the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special but there are some more news to it and the latest is...the title. Here it is...

The Day of The Doctor

(wow)

Jeremy: The title is The Day of The Doctor. That was amusing for the title of the DW50 special because look at the date; November 23, 2013, that's 50 years since the first Doctor Who TV series hit the airwaves and I think it's more of a personal milestone out there but still, it's worth dramatic.

Richard: Well, that was nice. People wanted to see Matt Smith and David Tennant together in the TV special. Ugh...why bother? My mind's in the middle of haywire right now because...

Jeremy: Oh wait, lemme guess...did you see Miley Cyrus's music video with her naked on it?

(audience laughing)

Richard: Well, possibly, but I was wondering about the MAD spoof about Doctor Who. Did you guys seen it?

(audience murmuring)

James: Well, I had.

Jeremy: No, I'm not.

Richard: Well, I can't believe this is a first time an animated sketch show does a Doctor Who spoof but anyway...

(chattering noise)

Jeremy: What was that?

Richard: It's my phone.

(chattering noise)

James: And why it sounds like it's chattering?!

(chattering noise)

James: That kinda sounds like a platypus chattering.

(chattering noise)

Richard: Yep. It does sound like a platypus chattering and oh! There's my phone call! Hello?

Jeremy: Well, you might as well talk to the phone right now but anyway, that is the end of the news.
