I hope this is not going to scare those who have not come to Nairobi because we are going to style both the negatives and positives of staying in Nairobi. I am not alone here. I am joined by phenomenal people, very great people in the studio. We have Kaleche. I don't know whether I have pronounced it right but I love that Kaleche, I love Afrika names. And then we have engineer Ocholla, that is Andre. How are you guys? Fine. You're good. So you're going to tell us more about yourself starting with Kaleche. Thank you first of all for having me. Lucy Kaleche, I'm a journalist by profession currently working at Shoro FM. I'm a news anchor for those who listen to radio Shoro Maturaine from 9pm.  You said your name is Kaleche when I always say this Kaleche. Okay, the name Kaleche and Kaleche there are so many names depending on how you pronounce it. Because we still have kina kareken buki, we have kaluki, we have main Kaleche, we have Kaleche. So does it depend on where you come from? Ya, it depends. Okay, that's nice. It's rare to find a journalist who is also a national youth leader. Did you say national youth leader or something? Ya, we have the national youth congress and the secretary general. Wow. Maybe people have not known much about it but we are coming to tell you more about it.  So that Andrei can also just tell the world about you. Andrei, how are you? I'm good. It's month crush Monday, it's your day today and you're here to represent the man, the man of the house. So if this governor tell the world about you. Pleasure to be here. I really thank you for the invite. My names are Andrei Ochoala. I'm an engineer by professional electrical, plant electrical engineer to be precise. I have social media handles, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, everywhere. I'm Andrei Ochoala and I'm happy to be here for this topic of discussion. Okay, so engineer and journalist. I think you are the best people to tell us about Nairobi. How long have you been Nairobi Andrei? I've been Nairobi for roughly 12 years. 12? Ya, you have enough experience. How long have you been Nairobi? I can say for the last two years and also the other years coming, going, coming, going. But constantly since started working at Soro it's been two years. Oh, nice. Now you've heard everything that people say about Nairobi. There's a song that they will play at the end of this in Nairobi. I'm not sure about the words but there's a craze about Nairobi that people are complaining about during your two years in Nairobi. What peculiar thing have you seen about Nairobi that you did not see at Ushago where you were or wherever you were before you came to Nairobi? What I can say, just like any other city in the world, people go to the city in their countries because they have that notion you can make it in the city.  So atomagari una pata imiandiku wa kijana Nairobi. Jotuna mwi ili na akili tabi utazi pata uku. Oh, wekuna tabi uli kujana u from Ushago. Not really. Uli kujakiwa pwatu. Nili kujakama mimi. Laki nipiwa una jua kuna this character development as a result of social na wale your circle wana influence who you become, what you are doing, mambuka mahaio. Oh, unwa ii potea na Nairobi? Of course nasiku uli zanji ya. How did you go about it? Una poteu una jifanya uja potea. Una zunguka una choka una wacha sasani ulize. After how long did you live in Nairobi? After nimi wana nimi me tembea sana. Jua nimi me waka kabisa. Arafume fika mahali kuna kawi. It's so quiet, akuna watuengi. Then wana yes niku na Nairobi. Laki nisi kama Nairobi. Wana unaka odd one out kwenyuna tembea. So wana uliza. And tell us about your experience in Nairobi. You've been here longer still. Yes, it's a lot. Ya, I really love the city to be precise.  What? I'm saying this to main a lot. For the first time when you're coming to the village, either a mother, everybody, a mother or a father will tell you that you're going to that city. Yes. Maybe when you're coming to learn or going to school, she will tell you that you're going to that city. There are a lot of thieves. I don't know, many things. So my experience, the first time I came to Nairobi, I landed at country bus. And then I had a bug. I had to tie the bug in my waist. Tie it like a rope. Ya, so that they don't steal it. If anyone comes to me like you pull it, you pull me together with it and I'll make noise. I have that mentality. Now when I went and sat there waiting for someone to come and pick me to be precise, my sister was the one who was coming to pick me. So I was waiting. I had no form. Like the one who dropped me the manamba. Yes. Told my sister that we delivered the package. Oh, you are like the package now. Ya. So I was delivered. So I came to the city. Like the dressing code was very different from what I was seeing in the city. What were you wearing? Like I just had some black shoes. Like putting it with a big jeans that is maybe faded. Tulkot na zita flair. Ni kuna mgukubua. Na t-shirt ya nambu. Na t-shirt maybe mi handikua Mr. Naisu. Ya, Mr. Naisu. Kitukama iyo. Alafu kuna ibelt. Kuna ibelt ni kuna choro apa. Maybe Bob Mali. Alafu budi naka kitambia thai. Ya, something like that. I can imagine. When I stayed in Nairobi, I learnt a lot. For the first time nili tokakwa nyumba kama na takakwa na kutembea, I only knew like two places like nili kwanajuwa Mali na itua Urupak na Kenkom. Those are the only places that maybe naisuwa say ma nili kwanajuwa personally. So I didn't know any route. So I decided to maybe walk. I walked along Thika Road. By then Thika Road was just two way before it tengenezuwa. Before it became super high. I walked straight from Thika Road from like Olsops that's Madare North. Up to town. Just walking. Why? Why were you walking? I didn't know where to board a vehicle. Nili kwa na sasa niki pandai ita nipelekawa api. Na niki nishukisha ntashukawa api. So like I was just going niki juwa niki, niki tembe aivi ita enda street nini yunguke town. So like ita trace nili kuja. So I went to town. I went up to Kenkom. Na nili tukakwa nyumba kama na kuja I again walked back home. So I learnt a lot nairobi while walking. Siku kwa na pandai gari. Na isasema one week. You were walking like a wild animal. So one day I got lost. Within the city? I got lost within the estate. Within the estate? The estate. Like where we were staying. Where were you staying? By then Madare North area 3. So I decided to walk along the estate. Now where I got lost was just behind the plot that you were staying. So I asked like najiwa plot ina itua I don't know, I can't remember the name but I asked for the name. So I had a small phone. Now you had acquired a phone? Ya. My sister gave it to me. Katululu. Ya. So someone told me pitiya pali pitiya the other side na wendu utad zungu kaivi. Now where I pitiya'd the place the guy showed me nili pitiya apu nika fika maali I don't know how the phone got lost. What? I don't know how the phone got. No one touched me. Yes. I just pitiya'd apu. What you know is that at some point you didn't have a phone? I didn't have a phone. Ya. So I learnt a lot that I won't pitiya this route again. So I went back then saw someone familiar. Ya. Nika fwata. Ya. Nika mwa nili mauna nika ma nika jirani. Nika fwata then I got nika samatwa I was just here. How did I get lost? It was really like very funny how I got lost nili pote aji na nili kwa tunumaii pili. So nika kuja nika realiza like changes in life like ukupen nili kusha nili sasa nika anza kushika antenna apu kuna wezi. Ya.  It was a small bridge nia samu ya called Uruma. Yes. The bridge that connects Uruma and Madariya. Uruma and Madariya. So I was made to Zunguka the bridge coming to the place that I knew that this was the plot. But Nairobi welcomed you. Nairobi welcomed you. So you went with your case collector. It's like you came into good hands. She was left to survive and now that is the problem with how men are handles. When how boy child is handled and how girls are handled. You were left to fight on your own. She got some heaven. She landed in good hands. No, I have my own share of losing things unknowingly. Tell us. First of all it started in Nakuru. was working somewhere I met some guys bale kwa na watching movie adjfro so they were looking like this but when I saw them you said you will go to a shop so when I was passing them I was real short wepi wole kuna na kuhuwa chia adjfro? no me kwa street unatembea but when I watch movie shop I watch DJFro but the bakeisha is going to buy the little ones So kuna moja mbele mwengine nyuma, muna pita apokatikati. So when I was passing, ikaski anime guswa. Kido gotu, but kufika 3 steps, nika ona sinasimu, kwa angaliye, but then around your suspect, but sinai evidence, I walked away. Jupia atasimu ilu kwa imezimu. Pia, fana irobi. I bought some trouble because then I took my phone, I started to, I put it in the bag. Kufika kwa bus-having, lukwana hendapale Ray Lewis. Nyingi ya kwa busi bilasimu, si dwi ili pote aje. So nairobi wacha ni seime weziwa nairobi, they are experts. We are going to discuss that, we are about the weziwa nairobi. Let's start with the rash. You know people are saying that nairobi kila mtu ana kimbia, watu ana hendapale. And I contrast this with, there is somebody who was guiding journalists on how to behave in nairobi, but na seime time really doesn't matter in nairobi. If you are invited for a meeting, be one hour late and you realize that you've really come so early, so early. So how do you bury these things? Like people really rush, everybody is rushing in nairobi, akuna moja na kimbia, poli poli, kila moja dwi viadi, kiki kongana na mtu wilecha, sorry, sorry, na kuhenda, akuna explanation. Watu ana hendapale na nairobi, we start with you. Watu ana hendapale na nairobi, na muna watu ana cheliwa meetings, with all that rash. Nairobi being the capital city of Kenya, watu ni weiengi kutoka kila pembera inchi, na kila mtu ana shugulizake, so you are not there tiku angale wame pitarini, yame vanini, kila mtu ana tembera. So I think my opinion is, because people are hardworking and they are busy with their lives, that's why they work. You think Nairobians are very hardworking? Ya, people were there, they are people who are hardworking because there is someone rushing there, iu kupita na pita na nisimi amtu wame onanda na kimbisha, in the process, a kokazi in short. Kila mtu a kokazi a kimbia. No, no, the rash, the rash... The rash of the lateness. It has a lot of like meanings. Like when you in town, you can't walk slowly in Nairobi. First, when you walk slowly, one you might be a suspect by the police. Like kujakuliza eki gana, ukuna plan gana. Iku upi aidi. Ya, where is your... Especially if you have a bag. Like everybody is minding his or her own business in Nairobi. That's why the rash... Again, the rash, apart from the police and maybe the kajos, these are like... I don't know how to describe it.   Ya, I am a suspect. This one we can really treat as a journalism. They will follow you. So like, when we follow a suit, like when I walk that fast, no one will mind me. No one will ask me to take a break. Brother, I will ask you. Can you help me in this? Like, you know, helping in this, kido go to, mtu ananda... Even if someone is serious like he wants this help, ya wukweli, no one will stop. Kilam tu sasa na henda tu. Sasa, iyo rashi na kujal like mtu ananda taka kumainu business, ya kia ananda taka, henda. No one. Na kuna rashi piya genuine like I'm late because of the traffic that was in Thika Road, Ili Kwaimin Shika, kumisa. It's a genuine rash. You are late, like with five or ten minutes at your workplace or either somewhere else. So they are genuine rashes and they are rashes that plus what kalei kaleichia say da, they are those rashes that maybe, mtu ame focus, eagle, eagle rash ya, mtu ananda kitu pali America ananda, vile ulesa polisi alis na chiwa simu kwa. Deman alit time kawana like, sasa na taka kweka ii piki-piki speeding in any rash. Sasa, the lifeguard in addition to that, iku tembe a tembe apole poli, na kakanga huna confidence, you are not sure where you are going. In the process, kuma alit tua tua kwa puku angali, na onhanya huna tembe apole poli, huna kuliza unhenda api, huna kukuliza, huna taka gari za api, ni ni ni ni. In the process, ya kuhongia huna putezas something you are carrying. Sasa, siji kama tuta ishi iwi. But umewa ikua kond, muna sama iwa, watu nika maona angali, watu tembe apole poli, waka waka kond. Kuna manyama, waka ikua kond between you. I've seen that but I've not experienced that. I've seen that happening to my fellow. I have a friend back in the estates. He's called Isaac. Isaac, he went to shop, to shop some clothes apagi komba. So I called him. Hey, brother ni komtanya. I'll be there in a few niko kwa gari. Then upon reaching the estate, an old man called him. An old man. An old man. Alimuliza direction. Nataka children somnya iko karibu. He gave direction and upon giving direction, ali jipata kama na pati ya na vitu zeya mebeba zote. Bag, simu. Even the remaining coin that he had, the twenty-seven. He gave that music. So after like ten minutes when I was calling him, he could not reach him. He was offline. Yes. Ali kuja, ni komuliza, hey, what happened? Aka ni ambi ni me koniwa. So what's the fun here? You say direction, how much to say direction? That's why it's tricky. You don't trust anyone in this city. Mi na heza sama, tumwa iko aniwa, but not me. Ni my friend ali ni peleka apo. Ruana awa tu kakwa kitebo, na makadita tu, na imuwa siji guza gani kona pesa. In fact, na angusyanga miyambili mebele, dunambu wokote, ukiletu na imuwa onyesha miyatano. Upewe hiwa. Siji upewe ni, unonesha miyatano. In fact, these people are very tricky. Ukenyesha miyatano na fa, by the way, kupei miyatato wukae naio. Ikae miyambili apo. Juhia liye kele miyambili. So my friend liye kele miyatano ya ke. Ukiwa naia. Naia ni mi naumpewa presa weka. Aka niyambili, naia ni kuwatuo cha. Tutuli kuwana he, ni kumambe kele atuana. Ako aka, kwa zalafu kuna isa kuli na zungu kanga, iwi kuna kwaanga tim, mumojiyendi ona kwa miyendi kuna mingine hi, sijiwa na badilisha nga na daki kanga pi. So miyatano liye potebe dho atu jaya miyana, it's kinda embarrassing. We don't talk about it much. We always say ma, ati wili niyanganiwa pesa. So like things like the ones she's saying, those are the things that maybe add the rush, the rush in the city. And they change you to another person in the city. Mmm. So you learn, the topic the question was, ni nini umewai learn from the, from Kanyro Institute of Character Development. Like ni nini, now people learn, people learn, like now where you know, when I do it, why would you do it now? You know you don't see people gathering, and they are speaking, then you go join them anyhow. There are a lot of things to learn. Yes. Like me personally, I've learnt that there are some routes, I can't pass dressing like this. And the same routes I can pass dressing like, there's a way of. Maybe suits. Yeah.  It's a very big road. Mmm. But now, these guys have an eagle eye. Yes. Someone has seen you there, and I say ma, is it clad in imzuri sana like, the way of dress is very good. So you might pass to that route, piti apu, ushtuki e, awuna ni wukauchi.  So I've learnt like, there are some routes, see where's the piti. You avoid. Yeah. I avoid some routes. For the sake of my life and maybe. For your own safety. For my own safety. Yeah, you just avoid those routes. And again, I've learnt Nairobi, you can learn, you can like, oneeza tengeneza, vitumingi sana. Nairobi ufungu wa kili. Sana sana sisi yutsa. Nairobi ufungu wa kili. Nairobi ufungu wa itzan, I open and maybe, a kili open. Awezi kakwaii city, kama awuna kenyuna fanya. That's why they say, nguvuna achama shambani, wukuna tumia kili. Awuna kuja na kili. Nguvuna ekali me wuko. Like to be precise, when I stayed with my sister, for a while, my sister made me a shopkeeper because by then, alikwana enda college, KMTC. He's a very good sister, ana pima kili watu sana. Uki jana tafanya nini. So, like, he started telling me, intak pati e blanda, nikuwam bivi lewana fanya, you make a juicer, then you sell. So, nili kwa na yo mentality like, I'm staying at her place, silipirant. So, the old money that I was getting, ili kwa tukwai, like unona, ujama na vaivi, na vizuri. Now I started changing your lifestyle, yushago nimi. Hata. Pressure. So, ujama na vaivi zuri na taka, jeans kama ii, viatu kama iizi. By then, there was this famous shoes called Supra. I bought Supra at 3,500. Na pesa ya juo? Yes. Because that money, nili kwa na juo silipirant. No, silipirant. Na mengia jiji. Fudiko. Io pesa mina an. It's mine. The business, I was told that ya shop na ya shop. But this ya jui, na ii niya kwa. Na yuza kwa esi tu niya angu. So, iu liyo bieshara angu ya kwa. Sa, ii pesa, the only thing I could do with it was like, niba ii viatu, maybe niya na tao, ni kule chipo na kuku because is only zile zile asiko diaspora. So, one day an eye-opena came, sista angu kanu liza, after 2 months, where apart from kuna nwa, is it viatu na angu, ni, you go to town like I was not even going to church back then. I could then, I scored them to church nima baby, a land chivi. I'm a Seventh Day Adventist. Yes. Niki fika tu church iwi ni kai kidogo, I'm lost, I'm in town. So, you kuna pesa? One day, one day I kanu liza, hi pesa niwa unapata hi. Ni ni konstaktivu siya fagina. Apart from, kuba isi ungo tu wewa, na kula kula tu. Ya ya ya. Ika ni ambia, from now hands forth, you'll be giving me this man. I'll only leave you with 200 shillings because there's no way you're going. You're not paying rent, you're not being anything. So like, I was, ali ni aiki a target. Pa month na tako ni pati e, kwa hi pesa niwa na tegneza. Daily niwa na tegneza roughly pesa nga api ni kamambia. So I was like keeping like 3000 every month. So did that make you change? Ya, it made me change because e 3000, she budgeted for me. Ali nuwa sufuriya, akanu nuwa gas na besheni. Then after, Aka kwa chakuna kwishi pekiya? Aka ni ambia, there is a house up here. I've paid for the house for 2 months. Ya ya. Utaenda kwishi apu uji tegeme. I don't know how you'll pay it after 3 months. How was your feeling? Now like, I was starting like, will I make it? The reality starts hitting. Is that when you started going to church now? Now I realized that my mother from home ali kwa nani ame mwambia. Umtoto, asikaya pusa na kuwako. Mfundishi atrehe vile, na isha iku umtoto. Nwa na. Now I started like, tozana ayupena. After the third month, yo sasa rentime isha niya li lipa. So like, ili kwa like. Yungun yo sasa mimi sasa. How much was rent? Rent was 3000. It was just a single room. It had no bed. I was just sleeping in the mattress. I laughed. Finally enough, aka endaka niitengizakitand. Kani ambi kitanda piya siya ako. If you can't pay for it, it is 8000 shillings. If you can't pay for it, I'll take it back. So I'm just giving it to you. Ki asitu. Hey, for the time being. Ya, utaru diisha. Do you have experience? Do you have such experience? Ma'im ma'im niwa waku handiliwa na velvet klansim kosa. Okay. I didn't say my other name. People call me that lady. I have learnt to solve my problems alone. So I'm relating whatever he's saying, except that in the part of that harshness of the nini. Of the sister. Ya, I had to work to get what I want. With whom did you come to stay in Nairobi? Ya ma'im li kuja kutukivi ako? Okay. I came alone because I don't have the family members. I don't have those people in the families. You can say who is who or an auntie to connect you somewhere. So it's you and what you believe in and you move on in confidence the way we are talking about the rash in Nairobi. Did you come to stay alone in Nairobi? U li kuja kwa nani? I came. Kwenji kwa kwa ya kwanza? Okay. When I came to Nairobi, I came because I was a student at Mount Kenya University. So I had to find a house. Oh, you came as a student? Along Vika Road. Ya. I was alone. Okay, so that's when you started making money on your own and all that? Ya, because... Or you were getting support from home? When I was coming, I left some projects to support me when I'm here. Because I was a student leader let me say 2020 we were being paid so I invested was selling shoes. Okay.  How do you guys tell me about Tamakin? Have you tamaked? Ya. What's your experience with Tamakin? It's a bit hard. It can make you like maybe lose hope in life. It can make you think of many things in the city, Nairobi. Like it's... When I finished like maybe college, I had a friend called Kevin. So my first job it was like an attachment. We ended up in Kamaambia. The company you work in hasn't been in touch with. Ya, it's okay. But for a few months Kamaambia 3 months we had 3 reports of attachment in Rudisha Shule. So I went there one of the company I went to Kamaambia and he told me I'll allow you Kujia attachment and he told me it's okay. And the place was like I was wondering how I'll survive with 4,000 per month. Where were you staying? Laki Samo. Laki Samo by then. Then Tumlolongu? So where were you at that affair? I was working as early as 3 I was working at the illegal town 30 Bob around 4.15 or so. And 30 Bob I was in Pandagari where my mother was. Oh. So again I went to Sabu and stayed in Lolongu there was a railway so up to where I was going to Sabaki was like 50 shillings. This 50 was in Mingisana so my idea was to stay in Lolongu for 30 so I stayed in Lolongu but past Lolongu is now 50. Oh. So in Lolongu I stayed in 50 and the guy gives me back 20 shillings and I just sit in the vehicle but I stayed in Lolongu to shuke I was in March and I was going to work. How many days were you staying? There is no day. I was just sitting. You were very lucky. Then I went to Tisha and I said I have made it. I have used 60 shillings. The only advantage that we had we were working on a field works easy to generators and power backup so like we were going mostly in Nairobi to look for a company coming to Nairobi sites.  I walked Come out and ask After every interview we will call you. You wait for that call forever. Up to now I am still waiting. I know I can count the companies that I went to.  I think life is harder for boy child than girl child. Do you also have such experiences? Have you ever termaked? I want to say termaking is very real it doesn't have gender it does not respect that because when what one enda shule both genders want to attend universities lakini hakuna job market they are for the ladies and these are there for the men. So termaking is real for everyone and that's why we are working at Dika Superhighway we used to go to work in Nairobi we used to go to work in Magani lakini Halipi Gari we used to go to Shkili we used to go home we used to go to school we used to go to school we used to go to school we used to go to school so termaking is real it's there the graduates kila siku ekonomi na flat na ho so the best thing is that you, the ukitoka nini don't depend on kanyu umesomea unless ppta kwa iyoshi de kwa termak na kuju na kazi you start thinking onakua innovative na other things because he said that Nairobi is a learning place we will learn you can survive on anything kia me soma engineering kia liandap kumeku juiz so you wonder why how engineering na juiz zina ingiana I wish we had a lot of time termaking will just be a whole topic one day here to discuss termaking it's a whole field that needs a lot of exhaustion ukona experience na begasi both of you are Christians from the place you are lighted to this studio I know you found so many beggas on there kuna hawa totally they can't work na kuna hawa ni blind of course you drop the coins as you work but kuna hawa mingiana energetic kumeku fwata tu na kiki kutia suti although ni kichafu you are age ments wa kukuleki gomba wa nga juo atu anu nuevi tu wa bebe yo mizigwa pelike kwa diari stage wapere fotibok ama whatever coins they are hustling kuna juo kuna mtu nezapata wu yu eniwa na nga gana siiichi na kwa mba pesa omoke ni for survival wu nenezampia kuna wu na patianga na patianga eniwa na kaa na kaa na di serve wu na watu na dani nijinu ni bega wu na wapere tu na juo kuna hii story li kwa nga kuna watu anu eka viwete kila kona alafu kote iso pesa alafu kila juo ni wana watu kua alafu wana pere wana tumishaara so iti like wana fanyi amtu kazi wapete pakuishi kwa onekana these people they mainly come from Tanzania not Kenyans majority are from Tanzania you also said you listen to me learn from Nairobi about beggars not that much also but me turn away manender kwa if you have it give them if you don't work na kama na kaka na guvu and these people have heard more than us tell us your experience with beggars in Nairobi the beggars practically I don't know who is genuine and who is not genuine at a point I was telling one of my friends job job kul is my good friend I had a story I was telling a job I was in town and I met a beggar like alikua na mugu kabisa mi ni kwa enda ni kwa drop like 50 shillings so when I came back from the same route with a lot of bottles of liquor the same guy the same guy he was drunk he was drunk so you felt like you felt like you felt like you felt like you felt like you felt like you felt like a scenario that happened I felt like I was drunk I felt like I felt like I felt like I was drunk I felt like in Nairobi in the city you can't know who is genuine beggar and who is not so what do you give what do you do sometimes I ask whatever we do we will be it's upon her or him na mugu ake tenda we manenda zako tenda we manenda zako and that's how you deal with beggars in Nairobi there's another thing that we can't live without touching on time it's already on our neck about the pyramid schemes those who say that on a fad message on a fad message that you can make they say you can make 3000 to 5000 in a week then do a senior of you join those how are online how are online I have joined one tell us your experience this time a friend called me and he told me that he is a mek he invited me just come and do I went 680 hotel mostly in Afanikanga and they called you in a very expensive hotel I went there maybe in Kata so like the way they were explaining this it was clear where we were I don't pay 2500 it's like a chain registration once you go the more you go the more you go the more you grow I went there 2500 the only money I have now where will I get this money again what were you selling which product were you selling there was no one selling any product oh you went the more you go you earn from it did you let out I couldn't do that because I had no registration money oh you didn't pay that I didn't pay I met others too but they were saying they came from Singapore and their registration was 20k you bring 20k then your friend when you go there and the chain continues a lot of people have evidence when you go there you came to me and sold the money you got it I sold it you went there and sold it I have recorded a video but I was angry I was worried and I knew that money would not come back as much as you wanted I was in a bad mood I was in a bad mood I didn't know na irobi moachongo a kafiki ria tu kilataha watu espatiali vili akuna makazi tuwambi iwi na iwi, they will fall for it so wana kuwanga it is real, it's happening and people will always continue to be conned because that is conning most of the time in fact they start by telling you wacha rana maso mo nipasangapi muna lipa yo university ama if you are working, they tell you maybe earning 20,000 the time you can take to make a million out of that say you are not saving so 20,000 will be multiplied by 12 months by one year they will calculate you to you and say by the time you will be a millionaire it is 157 years from today alafunona enyo apa kuna ukweli kuna kuna ukweli because it's numbers it's calculations we are like CIC maybe CIC amount and 2 million we are like they will send you photos alafu they have this habit of going to the airport to tunde get to a easy flight karebu karebu they take a photo there and be a juicy tuliko ehi tuliko ya ni awa tu na kwa tu na ujyanja fulani means in Nairobi i think we are going to finish with that kuna kuna wajima kuna pesa wana nda kwa big hotels na kuna watu ave burn kuna place wana nda zaku na fanya they are good hotels they say wana good restaurant inside where you work but there are people who still live wana nda kwa zile chapati zaku kata na kwa chafua have you ever eaten chafua in Nairobi i am not really sorry you see how girls are feeling good in Nairobi i am not a dynasty but i have not been there where you have been just eating in good hotels in Nairobi i thank god for that i am sorry very like

Hi. Today, I would like to ask all of you a question. Wouldn't it be nice to know that the food you're going to consume is going to make you sick or not? No, I'm not offering a time machine yet. But what I'm offering you guys is a sensor. What it is? Well, for that, consider this scenario.  Watch the Netflix show, but somewhere along the line, you feel really hungry. You walk up to your fridge, find that takeout that was maybe from Monday or Tuesday. You do not know. But nonetheless, it looks fine, smells fine, so you eat it. The evening went fine. Comes Monday, you're not feeling good anymore. No, it's not the Monday blues. You have food poisoning. Why? You're about to have jitter fevers, you're about to throw up, and you have some kind of stomach ache.  I think I have food poisoning. She being overly nice says, no, you need to get a blood test first to confirm that. The result of that blood test would not come before 24 hours. If you're lucky enough, 12 hours, one way or the other, you have to wait. But what if I tell you that you can skip all of that and come right here? Just before when you were trying to consume the food, you can test it with the sensor. That I have developed in my PhD. How? Well, you see, bacteria like us have DNA RNA. When they contaminate your food, they excrete substances into the surroundings, and with those substances comes out the DNA RNA. The sensor that I have developed is sensitive to that. What it does is that captures that RNA, generates a signal, and let you know if you can have that food within 30 minutes. So what you can do then is you can use that sensor and can tell if the food you're going to consume is contaminated with bacteria, because the signal can tell you if the number of bacterial cells is less than 10 or more than 10. Because if it's less than 10, you can still have that takeout. But if it's more than 10, you really need to throw that food out or order another takeout or with the help of my sensor realize that you have to be an adult on a Sunday and cook your food unwillingly. Thank you.


Hello and welcome to the Grand Line Review, your source for everything one piece. And today we have a review of episode 903, a climactic sumo battle, straw hat, versus the strongest ever, Yokozuna. So after watching this guy here, I think it's pretty official that the anime has almost completely re-immersed itself back into its old habits. I feel like I say this every week now, but there was good stuff in this episode and the new art style is doing a lot over the heavy lifting, but there was just so much nothing that happened this week. And that makes an awful lot of sense because this week only eight or so pages of the manga material was adapted. So not counting how the reverie arc was handled, this is an all-time low for the series. So how did they get away with it? Well, just like last week, there was more than two minutes of straight up recap with some of the recap coming from episode 901 two weeks ago. However, that's just what they did with the official recap because the beginning of the episode stepped back in time a bit and spent a further two minutes replaying an event we saw at the end of last week with Luffy's initial confrontation with Urashima. Now to be fair, this episode did add something different to the mix, which was the initial slow-mo section with the nice vivid coloring of everyone and the very cool atmosphere setting sound in the background. I much preferred this to the way in which this moment was presented at the end of the prior episode because when the sumo clash actually occurred, all of a sudden transitioning into this world of energy and chaos was made much more potent by starting off with this initial moment of subdued serenity. However, with that said, this was still something we saw last week. And as a result, we went more than six minutes into this episode without seeing a single shred of new content. And that is dress-rosa levels of bad. And I think huge calls to be concerned going forward with Wano. And the thing about episodes like this is that they are very much a waste of time in my mind because you can skip them and not miss a single thing because I guarantee you that next week, every major thing that happened will be covered in another extended recap. In fact, you could replace this episode for next week's recap and have the same experience but more concise and to the point, possibly even more satisfying. Basically, Luffy fought and defeated Urashima and sent him flying into Holden. That is the takeaway from this week. And it took an entire episode to accomplish what the manga did in half a chapter. And when we do get new material after six minutes of nothing, it's extended to all hell. For example, after the clash, we go into like 45 seconds of Luffy just going, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Trying to stay in the Sumo ring. Well, when Luffy and Urashima's fight recommenced and we were just treated to the same shots of Urashima striking followed by the same shot of Luffy dodging over and over and over and over again. Just like the Zoro Batman situation. Actually, you know what though? As far as the anime is concerned, Batman could have wiped the floor with Urashima. I mean, he repelled Luffy's punch with Armamentaki imbued. Meanwhile, Urashima couldn't even repel a non-Armamentaki, but slightly gear third at slap. So if anything, Batman really should be considered the strongest Yokozuna on Wano, if not Pirate King. But getting back to reality, like I said before, the art style and the animation really are still putting in quite a bit of heavy lifting. And as a result, even the most extreme of padded episodes do still look good and they have their moments. Like Luffy's giant Sumo slap was really well done. I like the way the anime is depicting these big power moves with the wind effect. And while I wish that the slap would have instantly decimated Urashima like it did in the manga, rather than having, you know, an extended clash, it was still good and very satisfying to see him send flying. And do you know what? There was even a nice piece of filler inserted into the bout where Luffy used Armamentaki to smack away Urashima's hand. Small moment, but very nicely done. I wish that the rest of the extended fight had been handled in a similar manner. And something else I thought was quite nice and mostly filler was the cutaway to Law and the Heart Pirates. Now, strangely enough, this was actually in the manga. There was a one panel cutaway to Beppo lying on the floor and Law going, why did you have to do this now? I think it might feel a bit weird in the episode because there's no sense of urgency with Law.  And the way the anime portrays it is that he's just casually taking his time. And it's not because he's not overly concerned about Beppo either. He knows it'll pass. However, I cannot help but love the moment where Beppo starts acting all cute with the sparkles around his face, which to me makes extending this one panel entirely worth it even if Law's urgency is a bit lacking. Although to be fair, at the pace the anime is going, Law has all the time in the world to be where he needs to be next. The other reason why this cutaway might feel a bit off to me is because in the manga, it was accompanied by another cutaway which was omitted from this episode. It's nothing wildly spoilery, but it is a panel of Hawkins right next to the one of Law. And I do wonder why it was removed for the anime adaptation. I mean, if you're looking for material to insert and fill an episode, then this one panel could have become another short scene like Law's, but the anime have made some odd decisions in regards to Hawkins specifically. Almost every incidental panel he appears in has either been moved or omitted from the anime entirely. And this is of course with the exception of when he was the straight up focus for a couple of episodes confronting Luffy and Zoro. But I can't discern any reason as to why this is being done otherwise. I mean, maybe it makes some sort of sense to save all of the Hawkins material for when he becomes more relevant again. But on the other hand, the anime has always been very much in favor of dropping small scenes of major characters just to add a little bit of hype like they've done with Law, Drake, and yes, even Hawkins. To me, it takes what was in all honesty a bit of a flat manga chapter and adapts it into an even more flat anime episode. The fight was extended into oblivion. Law had no sense of urgency in this situation. And any further complications from outside forces like Hawkins are just omitted.  Instead, I'm sitting here being more like, yeah, okay, I guess everyone is just going to casually run wild without consequence. But I feel like that's what I'm missing from Warner right now. It doesn't feel like the straw hats have infiltrated the territory of one of the four emperors, which was something that was and is always in the back of my mind when reading it. So hopefully that changes. But I think that this more casual pace is something that we should reacquaint ourselves with. And just to end, I'd like to point out one more thing that I actually enjoyed, which was when Luffy did his all, I'm going to be the king of the pirate speech, except it was performed in a traditional Japanese old timey style. It was just a nice twist on a statement that we've been hearing for over two decades now. So well done there. But that pretty much does it for episode 903.

Do bobo Luciano think that if pimps he could see super tight, would he be proud of it? Yeah I want to know about Do bobo Luciano think that if pimps he could see super tight, would he be proud of it? Yeah I think and and why and just just kind of run me down through of why you feel that way cuz he always wanted us to do something You know, he always expected for I don't know if he expected it But it seemed like every time he's you know kind of charge somebody to do something. I was one of the ones that Would do that, you know saying you know, we you know my idea to interview what we did an interview with DJ bird and I've seen that and he talked about when we Pimp wanted us to do a radio show You know, we was going to like Charles doing the radio show You know, we did the earth chick tape or whatnot, you know, it didn't transpire But I came to Dallas and got a radio show, you know and he was excited about that, you know So there's things like that. I think he would be more excited to see me still active Yeah, I just see you still and still keeping the UGK name alive I was so happy to get you on here that night when you first came you you dropped so many different jewels on the show that I believe solidify, you know, shout out to Julie Beverly who you linked me with as well Shout out Julia, you know, Julie Beverly come through and show love and and it's just stuff like that man that not only that He's a Leo. All of y'all. Yeah, what's up? Easy? Also, you know, Steve B low. I talked to him another day. We just talked I was just on his butt. I was like, man, you got to come home man.  You guys really spent time with pimp and only one missing is bumby Have you talked to bumby since you had this going the super tight? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, what do you think about it? Um, I hadn't spoken with them since we started dropping episodes. Okay. Yeah Well, I did I did I called him about the issue that we talked about yeah Yeah, you know, but not on that business. We don't spoke for like about five ten minutes.  Yeah, we on boss talk one-on-one


Welcome back to Node Summit Live from San Francisco, California. I'm John Furrier, the founder of SiliconANGLE.com and SiliconANGLE.tv, and this is theCUBE, our flagship telecast where we go out to the events, live stream and talk to the smartest people we can find, entrepreneurs, thought leaders, executives, venture capitalists, and extract the knowledge and share that with you. And I'm joining with Clint Finley, the editor of DevOps Angle, which we launched today, and we're here at Node Summit, the inaugural conference for Node.js. And we try to talk to the smart people, and sometimes we get the inventors. And we're here with Ryan Dahl, the inventor of Node.js. Ryan, welcome to theCUBE. Hello. Hi. Okay, so we've interviewed Doug Cutting in the past, inventor of creator of Hadoop. You created Node.js. Obviously, huge success. We had a chance to talk on Monday night at the Thirsty Bear and tell some of the story, but really want to say just congratulations for just doing some great work, and it's evolved into its own budding ecosystem and industry. So I want to first say congratulations. Thanks. So tell us the story of Node.js. Why did it all come together for you? Just for us, tell the folks kind of how it all started, and take us through the life of how it all began. What problem were you trying to solve originally? So I guess the original, original problem was a long time ago when people were trying to figure out how to do uploads via HGP. And it used to be that if you uploaded a file, you would kind of post to the form, and it would just kind of freeze up on you. You wouldn't gain interaction. Maybe at best you get a little spinny dial or something. But these days you get a progress bar that kind of says how much you're uploading. And at some point, I would guess 2006 or so, I saw a demo in probably Flickr, although I can't remember exactly, where they actually showed this. You would post an image and you saw the progress bar going, and it's just blown away. Like, oh my god, how do they do that? And you would think, oh, the web browser obviously is sending a file via some socket to some server. The web browser obviously knows how much of the file has been sent, so it's exposed by the DOM. But it's actually not exposed client side to the user. The way that these progress bars are, is that as you're uploading a file, you reach around on the side and ask the server, how much have I uploaded? How much have I uploaded? And the server responds, okay, 3%, 5%. And so in this way, the user can kind of see how the progress bar is going, how the upload is going. Solving this problem, doing this sort of thing in the web stacks that were around at the time is difficult because it requires handling multiple requests at the same time, right? Somebody's uploading this file that could be going on for several minutes and at the same time, you have this extra request coming in that needs to respond concurrently to the upload. Turns out that a lot of the frameworks were designed in a way that they made the assumption that a request response is something that kind of happens instantaneously and that your entire web development experience should be abstracted as a function that you get a request and you return a response and that is the extent of your context. So Node was originally born out of this problem in thinking about this and how can you handle these two things at the same time? And obviously there's many different ways of doing this but non-blocking sockets is one way. And so Node is more or less the idea that exploring the idea of what if everything was non-blocking? What if you never waited for any I.O. to happen? You just use only non-blocking I.O. What falls out of that? And pairing that with JavaScript. And turns out you can make a web upload progress bar with this among other things. But it basically comes out of the, turns out a lot of problems can basically be summed up as this sort of interactive websites where you need to do more than one thing at a time whether it's a chat where one person sends a message and you broadcast it out to everybody else or if it's a game where you're moving around and you need to relay those movements to other people it's all more or less the same problem. You need a programming environment that somehow abstracts, it gives you the right abstraction for dealing with all of these different events happening. When did you see Node start to really get the lift up? And I'll see you where you're taking it around you're playing with Node doing these things you're mentioning. When did it kind of start clicking like wow this is really going on? So in early 2009 I had this idea I was like okay JavaScript and non-blocking IO. Great, let's put those together and see if we can build something useful with it. And I worked on that for about six months maybe a bit less, four months or so before I had like a demo that I could start using and kind of as I was developing this I built a chat application at the same time. So kind of with the framework I was building this chat thing. And after some time I just realized like wow this is like 200 lines of code and I've got this chat server and it's purely JavaScript. There's nothing other than JavaScript in here and it's just like oh wow. Wow this is actually going from something just kind of playing around with the idea, neat idea, kind of academic maybe even to something where you realize that holy crap you can actually build things in a reasonable amount of time with this. So it was a performance like at that time you're like wow this is actually fast. Yeah I mean it was good enough to handle tens of clients and have no lag basically. So good enough. Performance with Node we spent a lot of time making sure that we're not doing anything overly stupid inside of it. So we care about performance a lot. Turns out that the 10x improvement that we got by doing non-blocking IO that was the big choice. Since then we've been trying and trying and trying to explore other ways of doing performance but you know and we've gotten some wins here and there but more or less the performance has been the same since the original design. So what happened next? Okay you got to show people this right? So they're like hey you call your best buddies and say hey look at this as well. Right so at this time like JavaScript I think these days it's recognized as kind of a language but a couple of years ago it was not really that way. It was this weird browser thing but it was just beginning to be recognized as you know Crockford came out with this book JavaScript the Good Parts and people started thinking oh you know actually this is actually a programming language. You could actually design programs with it. Gmail was written. You had these big complex applications being written in JavaScript and with that some sort of respect for the language. So the JSConf was created by Chris Williams in 2008 I believe and the European version of that came out in 2009 and so I wrote them and I was like oh I got this demo. I really want to show this off at your conference and they wrote back and they're like yeah yeah sure you know got me a slot there and so I finally showed it off at this European conference and it went really well. I gave the standing ovation wasn't there? Yeah supposedly that's what they tell me. I was extremely nervous. I mean I had been working on this thing for just like many months and I was like super nerdy about it and it's just like I had been practicing my presentation for like weeks before that it's just like very very wanting to show off you know what I meant by this because I felt like if I started talking about non-blocking IO and blah blah blah everybody's just going to like zone out entirely.  People have been doing JavaScript on the server side since the 90's so what was it about V8 and Node.js that made the difference that now people are really excited about doing JavaScript on the server side. Right so yeah as you said there's been a lot of server side JavaScript none of them have stuck several reasons one they kind of had this very traditional model of how you present the server to the user this request response you get a request you do a bunch of stuff then you return the response but you don't acknowledge the presence of other requests going on concurrently to you so it has this very simplified model which is fine and works but was not enough of a differentiator from Ruby on Rails and Django and PHP to really mean anything to people it was like oh cool I could do it in JavaScript but you know I've got Rails here it works fine it's not that big of a deal to think in Ruby and in JavaScript the other aspect was it was all in Rhino which the JavaScript interpreter on top of the JVM which is notoriously slow and it wasn't until 2008 when Chrome came out that people started realizing that oh wow companies are putting a lot of effort into improving the JavaScript performance to the degree that you had the very professional teams working on these virtual machines so now you have in 2008 Chrome comes out with V8 and you realize oh wow okay so Google is really pushing JavaScript performance and they see this as a way of dominating the market if they can make JavaScript faster people will start using their web browser because Gmail runs faster and suddenly Mozilla is put on edge and they have to now make their JavaScript their spider monkey, yanger monkey stuff work faster and suddenly it becomes this benchmark contest and Microsoft as well needs to now step up its game and start making this fast and then suddenly JavaScript is faster than Ruby and Python like basically overnight and so it seems like in 2008 this is a very good language to start investing in you get very good compute performance out of it and so it was at JSConf you presented all this at JSConf here's no JS here's how it's different than the old server side stuff and that's how it took off it was just people saw it there and just went nuts with it yeah so as I said I had been working on this for a long time and by this conference I was basically like out of money like I could no longer afford to work on this project full time just on my own so I went around looking for sponsors for the project so that I could continue to work on it and various people were interested in doing this and I went around and talked to a lot of people but the most promising one came from Joian who were like oh you know we build this data center software and what we want is we actually want node to be used for our data center software like we don't really have an interest in monetizing node itself but we want our software to run well and this is a perfect thing for building our own data center stuff and so this sounded great to me because little programs sitting there responding to events little demons sitting around the data center doing various things sounded like a very good use case for node so I teamed up with Joian and moved to San Francisco and have been working on it full time since then and it's just been kind of a constant progression of pushing this technology since then fixing bugs and introducing it to new companies and convincing people and talking to them about it and I think we've had a fairly good linear growth for two years or so which is pretty crazy. What have you learned for the folks out there who are open source is a great for a lot of innovation so what can you share with the other folks out there who are working on open source that work hard and want to do a project might have a success like a node not directly competing but you know what I'm saying like people out there working hard what can you share with them lessons learned or things you wish you could get back and do differently or not do differently what would you share with other folks out there working on some of these great new open source stuff? I think there's a lot of people who I think one thing that we've done very well in node is integrate other people into the community and just be very open about what we're working on and trying to bring people into the project so I've spent a lot of time people will contribute a patch which is not necessarily appropriate for node style is bad it introduces other bugs it's really big or whatever it's some feature that I could hammer out in a couple minutes because I'm totally familiar with the code base but I'll spend the next week going back and forth with these people saying okay fix this and fix that and then they'll give me another revision and I'll say fix this and fix that and just kind of going back and forth and talking about how they could get it into the code base because when you come to a new code base when you're just a random person on the internet and you're contributing to an open source project you don't know all of the things going on in that code base right so there's something that needs to you need to be stewardship you need to get introduced to it and I think that a lot of projects will kind of reject these sort of contributions or not take the time to really integrate these people to it but you know if you do this and you spend a week with somebody and get their patch in and make sure that they're on the authors list and everything then you have a person who now knows how the code base is going and can start contributing more that's what you're saying spend the time embrace the people coming in who want to work and work them through it help people get involved and help show them how to contribute to the project if they want to spend an hour of their time doing a patch for your project you should spend a week of your time pulling them in and hopefully you're going to get somebody who then contributes more that's great and that's always great about communities shows your commitment and brings them socializes them into the project yeah I mean the community of note is really where it's at right the runtime itself is possibly nice but you know the community modules and all of the people that we have is what's important okay so now this is where I put you on the spot and you could be political and it's okay I won't be offended if you don't say any names but of all the companies here which ones are your favorite that you say not from a company standpoint but like coolness like that's a cool thing of implementation of Node okay so the one that shocked me yesterday was TileMil which is doing a mapping application so you can make custom Google Maps type type mapping applications with you know data points and what not but you can you actually build these things on locally on your desktop so they made a Windows application using the Node port to Windows have this desktop application with Node inside of it that allows you to kind of create a map and then generates this file that can then be uploaded to a server where they're posting it also with Node and display these maps so they have this great database of all these different maps that you can kind of overlay with each other and this great desktop product and it just looks amazing it's just something I don't know I'm always amazed seeing these things just like wow I would have never thought Node would be used and we actually had those guys on the cube yesterday so anyone who's watching right now you can find that interview Mapbox is the name of the company Mapbox? Mapbox I thought it was Tile Mill? Tile Mill is the program Mapbox is the company and yeah you can find our interview with them on Silicon Angle TV Yeah and we also talk with Voxar too which is getting a lot of traction as well what do you think of those guys? Oh yeah so Voxar is our biggest customer so to speak because they are just pushing massive amounts of data through Node they have this big distributed system with hundreds of Node instances doing voice over IP through this thing so they have this walkie-talkie app you click the button you say hey what's up blah blah blah and it gets distributed to your followers but voice it goes up through Node and gets spread out and then down into React and so they're just pushing massive amounts of data through Node and they're finding problems they just recently in November started really blowing up with many users and so they're finding a lot of our biggest problems at scale so they'll find seg faults way before anybody else does and so we're in close contact with Voxar they are Quite impressive they're driving our kind of emergency fixes I think they're embedded in the code base that's the greatest we had Matt's great guy we talked to him last night too he shared some kind of inside baseball and some of the numbers which we didn't talk about in the cube they wanted to respect this privacy but a very big success story great growth there so anything that surprised you here at this conference that you go wow not just companies but just in general just the pure I mean this conference was really about showcasing you know what's going on and making sure that it's visible to you know outside of the Node community the number of projects going on and I of course am in this community and I've talked to a lot of these people here but even so like sitting there in the last session here and just seeing company after company after company like with their product that they've built in Node and you know this thing and this thing and this thing and it's just like it's very overwhelming a lot more than I've heard about and I'm just I don't know it's just shocking while the community is very respectful and professional we really enjoyed meeting a lot of the people here we haven't talked to all the companies we've talked to most of them just great, great crowd I mean good people doing some great work and the apps are going to change hopefully society and make the world a better place and make them do more with more resources and less cost so it's a huge, huge win I think just the beginning I guess my final question will be to you is what's next in your mind and the vision of Node and as this ecosystem starting to develop out and flourish further what's next for Node? So we're very much focused on growing the community and making sure that the experience for people coming into Node is a good one and for a long time growing the community meant making Node itself better like fixing bugs and fixing performance and making sure that it compiles on, it runs on Windows those were our bottlenecks for a while but now actually it's running pretty well it runs on Windows we have installers for Macintosh you can go to the website you can download it that's no longer our bottleneck what our bottleneck is is bringing in all the third party modules and building a website where people can go to Node and discover everything all of the various modules that you can just kind of plug into your app we have over 6,000 modules now for Node and it's becoming a real problem that people come to it and they're like oh I need to connect to my SQL there's 20 options like am I going to sit down and evaluate all of these code bases? No, you need some sort of rating system you need some sort of way of showing people what is the best one what's the up and coming one you know which ones are total shit and you should not use and we just need to make that all very very clear to people immediately and that's what we're not doing a good job at right now and that's what we'll be working on well we'll certainly help you get the word out and anything you need from SiliconANGLE we're looking forward to working with you guys with DevOpsANGLE we're going to cover you guys and be part of that community we love it, great success we're here inside theCUBE I'm John Furrier with SiliconANGLE.com with Clint Finley and Ryan Dahl the creator of Node.js huge momentum, great success a lot of value, great performance and we're excited to be here at Node Summit live in San Francisco so we'll be right back with more interviews in five minutes


Woo, that's a hot pussy. No way, huh? Taiwan Buwei. Wow, it's really good. Hey, I'm in the bravo bear. I'm trying to fly away, asking the captain, can you take us to Taipei? When we heard Taiwan was open back up to visitors and travel with no restrictions, it made us think of all the great times that we had in Taipei. To prep for our next trip, we had to try all the best Taiwanese restaurants in New York City. So if you're excited, hit the like button and let's go to Taipei. All right, everybody, I'm here at Wenwen and the food just arrived. This is probably the most hip Taiwanese restaurant in America right now. There's two owners, Eric and Andy. One's from Taipei, one's from Kaohsiung. And to be honest, the food is Taiwanese. It's very traditional in a sense, but it also has a slight twist, but it's twisted with other Taiwanese ingredients. For example, here we have the Yen Suji, aka the popcorn chicken. Everybody's had this, but this is smothered in sacha sauce. And man, this is fire. Popcorn chicken is probably the most famous and popular Taiwanese dish in the world right now, especially obviously it's something that you can get at both shops too. Here you have the Lobo Bang, and Lobo Bang is the Taiwanese dialect version of saying Lourofan. And you can see here, they're doing things a little bit differently. They have the duck egg on top, not a chicken egg. Oh my gosh, I'm excited. This looks so delicious. It's plated like a Japanese curry, but tastes like an elevated Lourofan.  I've actually never really had a sunny side up duck egg before in my life. One of my favorite things about Taiwanese breakfast is the Dojang, aka the soy milk. And this one's coming savory. It has chili oil, it has the yo-tiao in there. Let's taste it. That's delicious. It almost tastes a little bit more like milky, but that's why also I really like it. So next time I go to Taipei, I'm eating this every morning. Here we got the crispy tofu. Now, oftentimes you would see this and it would be stinky, but you know, you gotta go to Taipei for the real stinky version. Instead of stink, that has a little bit of mala numbing buzz. This dish really shows that fun, American fusion creativeness here. This is a tater tat dan bing. Okay, it does look like a shojwa bing or a neurogen bing, but they put tater tats inside instead of meat. A little bit of that sauce on top. That's probably their most American flavored dish right here, but that's delicious. That tastes like a dan bing breakfast sandwich. All right, guys, this is their signature chicken sandwich. It's called the BDSM. It's brined, deboned, and marinated in soy milk. This is like the Taiwanese buttermilk fried chicken sandwich.  All right, here we have the fly's head. This is probably one of the more traditional dishes they have on the menu. Maybe the untraditional aspect is putting it on a fresh lettuce wrap. I am so glad we went to Wenwen, and I will say it just wet my palate for going to Taipei. All right, you guys, next up, we are at something that tries to recreate Taipei City in New York City. Look, they even got the hats that say Taiwan Dengang. So for anybody who's been to Taiwan or grew up there, this is like, almost like what? Like street side, you grow up with it, right? You can eat it as a meal or as a snack. It's kind of like street food. We got it ready, man. Oh my goodness, guys. We have our personalized customized lui. This is the prince noodle, the wangzi mian. This is of course the beef slices. We're in America, beef is big, thick glass noodle, tons of chopped garlic, their own special hot sauce on top. I'm telling you, I love Sichuan flavors, but sometimes it's a little heavy, especially for lunchtime. I remember playing at the outdoor courts at Tai Da, which is almost like their NYU or Columbia of Taipei City. And man, I just remember looping. And then afterwards on a slightly rainy drizzle, you just get the lui on a side street at the night market. All right, our next stop on this Taipei crawl is actually not a restaurant. It's actually like a festival, but either ways, I'll show you in a sec. I'm at the La Guardia Airport and I'm headed to Albuquerque, New Mexico. Let's go. Just landed in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Time to go see something from Taipei. Guys, I am in Albuquerque, New Mexico at the annual hot air balloon fiesta. We're out here with Undiscover Taipei with the Bravo Bear. And I'm about to fly in this. I'm pretty excited. The whole hot air balloon team is from Taipei. They came here to let you know quarantine's done and you can come to Taipei. Let's go. So Captain, can we steer the balloon? You see this right line? If you want to go down, you want quickly, you put here and this opens it. All right everybody, I'm in a hot air balloon for the first time in my life. Big shout out to Undiscover Taipei and Bravo Bear because this experience is unlike anything I've had before. You're like floating in the air.  And it's just, it's a really cool thing. And I would recommend everybody to check it out if they get the chance. Gotta thank God we've been blessed with a nice day. High in the air when we're close to see these light rays. Man, I'm in the Bravo Bear. I'm trying to fly away asking the captain, can you take us to Taipei? Yo, that was such a dope experience to ride the Bravo Bear 6,000 feet in the air. You can actually ride this balloon in Taiwan. So man, I think that would be so cool to do it in Taipei as well. And don't forget Taiwan is super famous for its lantern festivals. And for the first time in 23 years, the Taiwan Lantern Festival is returning to Taipei and is taking over the Shinyi District for two weeks starting in February 2023. I mean celebrating the end of the new year in the heart of the city, what's cooler than that is definitely something I'm going back for. All right, so you just saw us on the Bravo Bear Hot Air Balloon and here, now we're at Taiwan Bear House which is serving Taiwanese bento boxes. They specialize in this. This is my favorite dish here. They have the fried chicken leg, you know, and then they sprinkle on some five spice at the end. Listen to this crisp. Man, who knew those Taiwanese railroad workers were eating so good? This is a juicy chicken leg, super crispy too. At any 7-Eleven in Taipei, you can get a whole bunch of different braised foods. Now, I know that it doesn't look as flavorful, but trust me, there's a lot of tea, a lot of soy sauce, a lot of ginger in there, and honestly, their selection out in Taipei itself is actually really crazy. Mm. And here we are with the authentic Taiwanese sausage which totally reminds me of the sausages you can get when you go shrimping in Taipei.   All right, so when you're here, you can actually learn about the history of the Taiwanese bento boxes. Obviously, there is a lot of influence from the Japanese bento boxes, but you know, it's just for your everyday worker here. And you know, I can't really read Chinese, but I know that this says cheese shirnan, which is 70 years. So maybe they're talking about how the bento boxes have been around that long. But you know what is a recent Taiwanese invention is the Instant Pot. This was invented by a Taiwanese guy and man, it might be one of the big Taiwanese-American success stories. So shout out. Taiwan Bear House, a little bit of Taipei in New York. All right, we're here at 4-4 South Village in East Village. And 4-4 South actually means it's referring to Taiwan's first military village. So it actually has influences from all over China. And this is the biggest sleeper dish here. This is the Mayou Ji Mishan. And that just means sesame noodles right here, the sesame chicken noodles. And they have the Mishan right here, but it's actually really soup. So get the soup, please. If you come here, sesame, oil, chicken soup, it's amazing. And one of the best things they do here is the beef noodle soup, AKA the Nyeroumen, and it has a lot of different elements here. And I will tell you this guys, as good as the beef noodle soup is here, obviously I don't know. It's not as good as the ones you can get in Taipei, but I can tell you this, it gets kinda close as a delicious bowl of Nyeroumen. Literally meaning cow meat noodles. Dude, getting beef noodle soup in Taipei is almost like getting pizza in New York or Philly cheesesteaks in Philly. The best beef noodle soup I ever had in my life was in Taipei. Another thing that I really miss about my last trip to Taipei is the Gua Bao's. Now you can find these on the street. There was one in the neighborhood that we were staying in next to our Airbnb. You got the crushed peanuts, the preserved veggies, a real fat slice of pork belly right there. This is just like a perfect sandwich. Now I'm not gonna lie, I don't know how many I would eat for breakfast, but for lunch, I think it is a go-to meal for sure. Over the past 10, 15 years, there have been so many fusion Asian boughs at so many different restaurants, but nothing beats the original man. This is the king. This is the one that it came from. All right, for the last dish, you are looking at some Luro flavored Koro style. I mean, this is like, basically they take the most famous Taiwanese dish, the Luro Fond. I think that is the national dish and they're just giving you the fatty pieces of pork belly right here. Let's check it out. Wow. When it comes to braises, you go to Taipei and the bar gets raised is. Listen, this is a chain from Taipei. So really what you're seeing on the menu is just a glimpse. It's just a tip of the iceberg of what they got, even in just Taipei alone. So you just kind of go there and find out for yourself. All right, one of the most iconic things about going to Taipei is of course the night markets. It's such a big part of the culture. And here at VV Bubble Tea in Chinatown, you can actually find a lot of the night market foods, such as the Yen Su Ji, which is the classic popcorn chicken. Mm. Only get it fresh. Next iconic food is the Taiwanese sausage, aka the Shang Chang, freshly fried. That's a hot glizzy. What do you mean by that? And of course, due to the Japanese influence, you can find takoyaki's everywhere around Taipei. This is super hot and freshly fried. Oh my gosh. Let me just cut one open for you real quick.  Yeah. Look at that little tentacle right there, man. Definitely one of the best snacks.  Even though VV Bubble Tea is actually a chain from Taiwan, they also still carry some American classic snacks like the American corn dog. But to get the real thing, you might have to go to Taipei for the link shirt. All right, our next Taiwanese staple in New York City is actually Maywa Fast Food. It was started by Taiwanese people and it is still one of the best bargains in Chinatown. Seven dollars for each of these. This is the chicken leg. This is what they specialize in. They were frying these up fresh next door. This is only seven dollars for the chi-twe. And then here you have the paikou-fan, which is the big juicy pork chop right here. But you know what? Let me get it with the chicken leg first. It has a little bit of tomato sauce. It's kind of nice. It tastes like it's straight out of the side stall in Ximending, man. It's making me miss Taiwan right now. Who would've known that the meal that the railroad workers in Taipei were eating 70 years ago would still hold up to this day? Here I got some chilled doujang, aka soy milk. Everybody knows that in Japan, they take their ramen super, super seriously. Almost like samurai serious. But in Taiwan, they also have a ramen and it's the beef noodle soup, aka the Nero man. And here we're here at Ho-Fu's in the East Village. It is one of the only few artisanal beef noodle soup spots in America. And this is what you're looking at with the extra rich broth and the nice chunks of beef shank. And this is the spicy version. Woo! Spicy and rich guys. I have so many memories eating beef noodle soup late at night or for lunch in Taipei. It just kind of takes me back to all those videos that we made. Right now we are in Taipei Taiwan and we are gonna be dedicating this episode to one of Taiwan's most popular dishes, beef noodle soup. You can get beef noodle soup at a lot of spots around America, but only at spots like this at Ho-Fu's. Are they gonna treat it like you're in Taipei where you can get all these add-ons? Like here I have pea shoots. I can put them in my broth like that. Pickle radish, boom. Look at that. That is an authentic bowl of Taiwanese beef noodle soup in New York City. It's 10 p.m. right now and I have some of Taiwan's most famous breakfast items. And actually you can do that in Taipei too because there's a lot of late night spots. So here's the Don Bing aka The Egg Pancake. Here we got Phan Thuan aka The Sticky Rice Roll. This is one of my favorite breakfast items. Although kind of controversial, a lot of people think it's too carby, but guess what? I'ma dip it in the Nero Man because there are no rules. Freshly fried radish cake aka Luo Bu Gao. What I'm really trying to say is that in Taiwan they treat beef noodle soup, not just like the ramen, but maybe like the sushi because you can get a bowl in Taipei for like maybe five or $6 US and they also have one that they sell for 300 US. So there are different levels to this. I'm into Taiwan beer too. One of the most underrated aspects about eating in Taipei has got to be the Japanese food. It's got some of the best Japanese food at some of the best prices. We're at Raku right now eating two Japanese things I've never had before. And guess what? A lot of the ownership actually of this spot is Taiwanese. This is a Tatsu Tage, not a Karaage because it's spicy and it's marinated. Over here, we've got a Kani Salada. Kani means crab. We've got snow crab on top.   This is on a whole nother level. Let's see how juicy and spicy this Tatsu Tage is. If you guys like Nashville hot chicken, but you like Japanese food and Karaage, you're gonna wanna try this because this is spicy as far as Japanese food goes. To cool it off, I've got the Kani Salada. Obviously snow crab in there. Honestly guys, sometimes I think about going to Taipei just to eat really high-polling cheap Japanese food too. This is what Raku is known for. This is a Kani Ankake. Kani is this snow crab right here. You've got nori, you've got spinach, you've got spring onions. And of course, last but not least, you've got fresh, handmade udon noodles. I gotta be honest guys, I have tried so many new Japanese dishes in Taiwanese-owned spots or in Taipei before, so I think that that is an overlooked aspect of the food culture in Taipei.  This is one of the most famous Guote spots from Taipei. It has now made its way over to New York City's Chinatown. Now a lot of people are probably wondering what makes the Taiwanese Guote, the pot sticker different than other styles of pot stickers. Well, we're gonna go take a look. Aren't you guys, we got the house special pot stickers in Shrediao from Sammy Wago. In Taiwan, it has a different name. It's Shunhai Youlong. Taiwanese Guote, they take a lot of care in making it and they're actually almost like long rectangles. Yeah, they're folded a little bit differently. The ends are usually open to let the steam in so that it actually reduces the cooking time. Although I feel like there may be some other deep historical symbolism involved in why they fold them differently than other dumplings, but maybe you gotta go to Taiwan to figure that out. And are you more with the Guote or more with the Shrediao? The Guote is a 10 out of 10. It's super good. I gotta say the skin is thinner, almost like more of the Gyoza style. It's not the thickest dumpling skin, but it's fried nicely. It doesn't cook too long. Like I said, the steam goes into it. So honestly, it is a great dumpling. And I know in Taipei, Andrew, sometimes they put that extra crust on the bottom to meld them all together. We're here at the alley and you know that they probably make the most aesthetically focused boba drinks. It's a chain from Taiwan, guys. It's super legit. Here I have the strawberry crunch slush and then here I have the purple rice yogurt with matcha on top. Look at it, it's crazy. Okay, you got the little crunches on top. I'm just gonna eat it first. Just as the other one had strawberry crunches on top, something that you've never seen on boba, you've never seen a matcha smoothie on top of purple rice and yogurt, guys. It's like a trend on top of a trend. You guys know you need to check out the alley. Just as these flavors are really pushing the envelope as far as boba goes, I mean, you could go to Taipei and even see more different stuff. You guys heard it here first. Taipei, Taiwan is open to visitors with no quarantine and no restrictions. I know that after filming this video, I'm even more excited to go. So type it in your browser and check on those airplane tickets right now.


Well, the majority of everything that I am today was developed through my younger years at, you know, being in the Brown County school system all the way through Morehead. I was raised kind of on campus at Morehead while my father coached women's basketball there. So it has a huge impact on every decision I made previously and present. My playing days weren't probably as good as I would have liked them and I dealt with a lot of injuries while I was at Morehead, but certainly the opportunity to take part in athletics at a place I loved was great for me, but also on the academic side of it. It kind of shows the well-roundedness that I had as a student athlete that I want our players here at U-Pike to kind of represent as well. Just a great humbling honor, obviously a place I was born and raised, so to get recognized by the people that kind of helped raise you was just an awesome gift, one that I treasure.


And moving to other parts of Africa, Port Sudan has become a focus for foreign nationals hoping to escape the violence in Sudan by sea, with passengers ships making crosses to Jeddah in Saudi Arabia. But despite their huge numbers trying to get out, there are some who are making their way back to the war-torn countries so they can be with their families. Warrant factions trying to seize control of the East African nation of Sudan have plunged the country into chaos with at least 400 dead and thousands displaced. At Port Sudan, hundreds of displaced people from all over the world were trying to leave on a ferry. And still in Sudan, people fleeing the fight in Ali today spoke of their relief loss and sadness of leaving the country. Foreign nationals have fled in one of the largest such evacuations since U.S.-led forces withdrew from Afghanistan in 2021. Hundreds of people have been killed and thousands funded since a long submarine power struggle between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary rapid support forces erupted into conflict on April 15th. I was working in the Sudan for the last 13 years and due to the situation of peace and security here due to this war, I left everything in my house, my car, my everything. All the savings of 13 years I'm living here, really. Just to save my life, I'm happy. Just go back, Alhamdulillah. But because all the things are here, it is nothing. It's not feeling well. I feel sad. I was hoping that while I was here, things would resolve. There would be some kind of reconciliation, a path towards some kind of peace settlement. Unfortunately, that is not in the near future. It doesn't seem like it is. But yeah, I'm hopeful for Sudan. It's an amazing country, beautiful people, a lot of potential there. And I hope I can contribute whether I'm no matter where I'm in.
