Weddle builds my team. Listen, I was thinking of doing this video, and I thought to myself, wow, Matt, What a banger original video idea. You'll go into Weddle Play, and if you get a player right, you can add them to your Madden team, and then go play a game with it. Turns out, not only am I not original, creative, funny, handsome, L-plus ratio, two people have already done this at the least. There might even be more. Number one, Vic. Literally the day I'm recording this, someone just told me. Vic has a video on this, so you guys know I love Vic. I guarantee that video is a banger, so after this check is out. Number two, Kenny Beachum, absolute stud as well, has done this for 2K. So basically, I'm an unoriginal cuck, but this video will be a banger. So once you're done with this video, if you loved it, there's two more that you can watch. I wanted to shout out those two guys. I'm late to the party, apparently, but it's still a party. I may be late to the party, but it's still a party. The premise is simple. Right now at Ultimate Team, I just have a base squad of bunch of random players. I'm gonna play Weddle. The way I'm gonna do it is I have 15 attempts on normal mode. Only on the attempts that I actually get correct out of my 8 guesses, I can add those players to my team. Hopefully, I go 15 for 15. So for example, if one of the players is AJ Dillon, AJ Dillon has a 99 overall Golden Ticket halfback. I can go in the store, buy his 99 overall Golden Ticket, and add it to my team. So yes, perfect example. If AJ Dillon was the player I guessed it correctly, I can add this Golden 99 Golden Ticket, 6 foot, 247 pound monster. And if I get stuff wrong, then I will be punished by not being able to build the best possible team. You guys get the idea. You guys know how Weddle works. If you somehow don't, you're about to learn very quick. So let's hop right in. I'll start out my guess with AJ Green. Nothing is correct except for the NFC East, but it's not an Eagle. Why don't we just go with Ezekiel Elliott next? It's not Dallas. It's not Philly. Also, I'm just spamming out my guesses because I know I'm gonna get these right, so I'm not too worried. Daniel Jones next. Our player is absolutely a Washington Commander, and they're over 6 foot 5, so it's a really tall Washington Commander who's not a wide receiver. Is it Logan Thomas? Logan Thomas! Wait, does Logan Thomas have a good card? All right, well, we got a tight end at the very least, which is good, because you guys know I use my tight ends a lot, but I have no idea what Logan Thomas has this year.  Who are you? Wait, is this, is this Logan Thomas that he was a quarterback, wasn't he? Wait, wait, wait. Oh, I just got, wow, I'm such a casual. I guess technically right now I just got a tight end or a quarterback.  For now, I'm using him as a tight end. It's not very good. It's an 85. And in case I don't get a quarterback, I guess I'll look at Dallas. All right, let's just start out with Anthony Schwartz, and it's actually a really good guess. It is a wide receiver, so we're getting a wide receiver no matter what. AFC wide receiver number 11 or 12. I'm not gonna worry about jersey number because I'm not very good at that. I'm just gonna try and figure out division, so it's not AFC North. I'm typing in Tannehill just so I can get AFC South. Oh, shit, it's a big-ass wide receiver in the AFC South. A six-foot-four wide receiver. It could be Pittman, right? There you go.  Wait, did he get a golden ticket? Oh, dude, I don't think his golden ticket came out yet. Oh! Oh, Pittman has a golden ticket and I don't think it came out yet. He still has a decent wide receiver card, 92 overall, Michael Pittman.   He literally has a golden ticket. Damn. Starting Aaron Jones. Ooh, I'm gonna need a running back, too. So this is not a running back. It is a no- Ooh, we get another wide receiver, six-foot-six-foot-one. Let's hope that this one's better. It's an AFC wide receiver. Let's just start with Chase Claypool, AFC North. 25-year-old wide receiver. Let's go Mike Evans. I think he's a little older than 25. Oh, that's NFC.  Ooh, bad guess. I thought, why do I think that's AFC? What about Michael Thomas?  What am I doing? That's also the F- I just had a complete aneurism. Not the AFC East, not the AFC North, so it's the AFC South or the AFC West. Let's go Brandon Cooks. It's an AFC South wide receiver, and I have one guess left. Shit. It better not be someone good. I just wasted so many guesses. I am completely fine.  There's no shot he has a good card, Matt. Literally, he doesn't even have a card on the auction house in Madrid. That was weddle normal mode? Damn, I just got clapped. All right, hey, that's one of that counts, though. That totally counts. All right, let's start with AJ Brown again. Not a wide receiver. Oh, I'm praying this is a running back. Yes! Yes! We've got an AFC running back. Give me Najee Harris, come on. Not the AFC North. Okay, what about James Robinson? Not the AFC South. AFC East or West, once again. What about Zach Moss? Ooh, it's an AFC East running back. Kinda hoping it's like Miles Gaskin. Oh, look at how close that is.  That was damn near it. Well, let's just try Patriots, and then I'll figure it out. Who are the running backs? They still have Sony, no, they don't have Sony Michele. He's on the Rams. Damian Harris, right? This is fantasy football talking now, okay?   We gotta start heating up, because Damian Harris is not gonna have anything nice. I don't think. Oh, okay. He got something. He got a combine card. At the very least, we have a 94 overall, Damian Harris. He's not very good though.  He's kinda ass, so we're hoping to get something better than that. All right, so that was our fourth round. This is our fifth now. I would very much like a quarterback. That's better. It's not a quarterback, but it is. Might be a wide receiver. Oh, running back again, let's go. Let's just take another whack at running back. Ooh, 27 year old running back in the NFC Dalvin Cook. Please tell me it's, oh, it can't be, because it's not NFC North. So it can't be Dalvin Cook. Darn it, I just really wanted it to be. What about Leonard Furnett? Couldn't be Leonard Furnett? Not the NFC South, not the NFC North. What about Zeke? NFC East, okay, so it's the NFC West. Sony Michele? It is not Sony Michele. Wait, he's on Miami? Whoa, when did he get on Miami? Okay, but our player is five foot 11. Oh, I'm six of eight guesses. You gotta be a little more careful here. What about James Connor? It's not James Connor. I only have one guess left. I think it's Chris Carson, but if it's Chris Carson, that also sucks. If it's Chris Carson, this kind of blows, because he's not very good.   Dude, we're getting clapped. There's so many good running backs in this game. And honestly, like Chris Carson is a really well-known running back, and so is Damian Harris. They just don't have good Madden cards. This is Chris Carson's best card in 82. I'm not even buying it. That's so poverty. Oh, we've really gotta heat up now, boys. Not a wide receiver?  Not a running back. It's a quarterback. It's a quarterback in the AFC who is five foot 11. I'll tell us Lamar. Okay, not Lamar. What about Russell Wilson? Is this Russell Wilson? Hey, wait, that's so goaded. Wait, he has an insane card. Oh, yes! Finally! All right, that's huge.  This whole year, he's had an insane card. The 98 overall improviser, Russell Wilson. Beast! He's an unceasing game quarterback. We just got him. He's gonna be complimented by Damian Harris and Logan Thomas and Michael Pittman, which is ugly, but we still got a lot more guesses to keep going here. So let's keep cranking. Russell Wilson, that's huge. All right, give me a wide receiver.  It's an eagle. No, don't let it be Jalen Hertz now. Please just don't be Jalen Hertz. Thank God. It's not Jalen Hertz. Oh, thank God. So it's not a wide receiver or quarterback. Is it Dallas Goddard? Yes! I love Dallas Goddard. I love Dallas Goddard. Actually, he might have like a 96. He has something in this. I swear. Whatever, low key and 90 overall tight ends so much better than the 85 Logan Thomas. We'll gladly take Dallas Goddard. Let's go. Nice guess to start out. A.J. Brown's always my first guess. So it's an NFC non-wide receiver. Let's just do Dallas Goddard see if it's a tight end again. It's not a tight end. Ooh, I think it's a quarterback. I think we got another quarterback here. Let's go Jared Goff. But oh, it is an NFC North quarterback. Is it Aaron Rodgers? That is Kirk Cousins, who is poverty. Oh no, sorry Kirk, I'm not even. Listen, I want to mention, say, Kirk, I do love your thanks for that Rose Bowl dub, but no, never, no, never. It's not happening, no. Okay, we have a 24 year old player on this next one. In the NFC, not a wide receiver. We might have a quarterback again. We can't really improve quarterback so that is kind of a bummer. I'm gonna guess Tom Brady. It is a quarterback. It's not the NFC South, leaves the NFC West. I might be Kyler. It is Kyler. Damn! Kyler would have been nice. If I didn't already have Russell, Kyler'd be nice. Yeah, bro. Oh, he does have a gold 99. I did not realize he had a gold 99 limited.  Statistically, this Kyler Murray's actually a better card. Like he has better stats, but he's a scrambler QB and improvisers are just a million times better for abilities unless I was gonna run a scape artist, which I'm not gonna run a scape artist. So Russell Wilson is still the better pick here. Wide receiver, please, yes! Let's go. NFC wide receiver, not Philly, so not the NFC East. Maybe this takes us over to the NFC North.  Whoa, taller than 6'4". Doesn't play for the Lions, Bears. Who's Bears? I can't imagine the Bears have anybody bigger. Vikings have Justin Jefferson. This is absolutely a packer. Is it Alan Lazard? It's not Alan Lazard. Okay, I'm gonna say Justin Jefferson just to narrow out the last team, which is the Bear. The Bears have a wide receiver who's 6'5". Did they pick somebody up that I'm not aware of? I have to take an L here, dude. If this is a God tier wide receiver I'm gonna be pissed but I'm just gonna throw out random guesses until they tell me. Equinamious St. Brown. Okay, I did forget about him because we have a modern St. Brown, which is his brother. I actually thought Equinamious St. Brown was on the Packers. They must've got him from the Packers or I'm just a casual. He has a 68 overall, so. I'm okay with the L there. It's AFC West, there's 6'6", it's a tight end. It's a tight end in the AFC, not AFC West, my bad. West to North, so what's AFC South? What about Wanu Schmidt? It's AFC East tight end. Oh, please tell me it's Dawkins. Dawson Knox, not Dawkins, Dawson Knox, come on. Oh no, it's not Dawson Knox, but they are number 88, geez. So it's either a jet tight end, which I don't even think those are real. Do those exist? Do the Jets have players on their team? So it has to be a dolphin. Oh, Gisiki.  He has to have better than a 90. This is the best Mike Gisiki card, that's a crime. Or does it just not exist on the auction house right now? Gisiki's got a 97 overall, he has a 97 but it's not on the auction house, that blows. There's nobody, people hoarding Mike Gisiki?  That's some YouTube timing right there, let's go baby. Okay, so we got a 97 Gisiki and back and hang them up is Dallas Goddard. We played 10 games, I've got five left. To find myself a really good wide receiver, really good hat back. I think that's gonna help this team a lot. It is a wide receiver boys. It's not the NFC, it's in the AFC. I'm just gonna say Rashad Bateman just to get AFC North. Okay, I'm gonna say Pittman. It's an AFC South wide receiver who is six foot two and they're significantly older than 24. This is an established guy. Darn it, I don't think they're gonna be good. None of those teams have good wide receivers, they just don't. What about Cooks? Let's just see if it's the Texans. It's a Texans wide receiver, there's no way. Who could that even be? Is Chris Connolly on the, oh geez. Okay, I mean, I'm happy to have it. Just no shot, Chris Connolly has a good card, right? He's got a 97 overall. Okay, Chris Connolly, whatever, whatever. Running back, running back, running back, running back. 5'10 or 5'11 running back in the AFC. Give me Jonathan Taylor. Oh! All right, Russell Wilson and Jonathan Taylor in the backfield. 97 overall, Jonathan Taylor. If you guys have seen my Colts theme team video, you would know he's just a, an actual monster. He's literally so good. So we have three Wettos left to basically just get a really good wide receiver. That's what's gonna close this team out. Oh my God, we have a shot right now. We have a shot right now. It is a wide receiver. NFC, not NFC East. They're shorter than 6'1, six foot wide receiver, not NFC North. Let's go to Chris Godwin for the NFC South. It is the NFC South. It's not Chris Godwin. The Panthers. Oh, is it Moore? Is it DJ Moore?  Dude, he's such a beast. He's one of the few highlights of that Panthers offense right now, especially when McCaffrey always goes down. Please tell me he has a good card. 94 DJ Moore. It is our best wide receiver right now. He's not a God, but he's our best wide receiver right now. Happy to have him. It's Russell Wilson, Jonathan Taylor, Mike Asicki, DJ Moore. We still have two guesses. If these are wide receivers, honestly, I don't even care. Oh my God, let's go. Dude, the amount of wide receivers I'm getting, somebody has it really good, right? Let's put our thinking caps together here. AFC. I'm gonna do Pittman. I'm praying it's not the, why is it always the AFC South?  Unless it's Brandon Cooks. Yes! Let's go. I think he has like a 98 or a 99. He's got a nasty card. Oh, it's a 95? Really, it's a 95?  Brandon Cooks, thank you for existing. We're making our wide receivers better and our final, our final player is a wide receiver again. What is going on? Another wide receiver, please. Dude, sauce me up, give me a 99. This actually is bad news unless it's DJ Chark. No, DJ Chark's number 25, so it's not DJ Chark. But it is a Detroit wide receiver? Wait a second, who do we have? It's not a modern St. Brown. It's not DJ Chark. It's a wide receiver for the Lions. It's gonna be someone really poverty. Okay, so if Jameson Williams from the draft, he's like 21 or 22. You have a modern St. Brown who this is definitely not. I think we have Josh Reynolds, but Josh Reynolds is probably gonna have like a silver. Is it really Josh Reynolds? Josh Reynolds is my final, whatever. I'm just glad I got Brandon Cooks and DJ Moore back to back. Out of pure poverty for the Detroit Lions, out of my fandom, I will look up Josh Reynolds. There's no shot, he has a good card. 75 overall and he's still in a Titans practice uniform. Okay, I couldn't get him out of bargain though for 650 coins. That's it. As you can tell, Wettel Normal Mode only has offensive players. You know what? I make the rules. I make the rules. I'm gonna keep going until I get someone insane.  I'm just gonna cheat this until I get a wide receiver. That's not a wide receiver. So we're just gonna spam guess this. Eventually. Yes! I got a wide receiver. Finally, finally. All right, yeah, I know there were rules. I know there were rules in place. I just want everyone to know that I don't care. If there's one thing that I learned in my life, it's cheat. Cheat on everything. Cheat on exams. Cheat on your girlfriend. Cheat on everything. Yeah! All right, now keep in mind, obviously there's no offensive lineman on Wettel. So this is what my offensive line looks like. Bunch of randoms that were just out of my team. But we've got Mike Isikki, DJ Moore, Russell Wilson, Jonathan Taylor, Brandon Cooks, and Diggs all from Wettel. And of course, Zonklers just because he's Zonklers. You gotta have him. Our team is ready to go. Defense, my defense is kind of mediocre.  It's a lot of players you guys see in Wheel-A-Mot. So Sean Taylor, Isaiah Simmons. I think that's fair. I don't want my defense to be crazy good in a video where I can only build my offense. You know what I mean? Oh, and we have tons of fun jerseys now. I kind of forgot. We have tons of fun jerseys now because of training variety packs. Let's throw something on. I'm gonna go all these Broncos. That's kind of a throwback.  So we're gonna go with those. And since there's no Wheel-A-Mot season, I can actually play a head to head game with this team. We're a 94 overall with a 95 offense and a 93 defense. I think that's perfect for the video we're doing to have a better offense and defense. Ramsay, Sean Taylor, and Russell Wilson did make the top three.  He's got frats. Oh, it's a... I was literally about to freak out and say it's a Lions team team. I don't think it is. He might have Lions cam, but JC Horne kind of ruined it. There's one key to winning this game and it's Jonathan Taylor. This is hot, okay. I don't know what just happened because I felt like I was supposed to run through that hole, but the key to winning this game is Jonathan Taylor. Let's try and secure this edge. Great jukebox, juke.  You will be how we win this game. I think he expects the stretch. So we're going right up the middle. Get through it. Let's go another great juke. There's Gisicki in a window. One-hand snag. My boy, Russell Wilson, great ball. We'll move away from... Oh, that shocked really bad. Gisicki, I need you. I am T. Brian Dawkins. Oh, I like how we attacked that right there. He's still got good yards, but I like that. Oh, throw it, throw it.  Stop and go Bo Jackson, yes sir. Beautiful yards. I needed the reset. I got the reset. Right there. Jonathan Taylor right across the middle. The jukebox hits. And we're moving down to the 26. We do have an intercept from Russ, but I feel good right now. I said there's a key to winning this game. That key is Jonathan Taylor. We're sticking with him. Let's go. Great blocks from Zonka. Brian Dawkins was coming if Chase Young didn't get me. So it is what it is. Third and six. I'm going to get a double team over here and Taylor across the middle. Taylor wide open, great ball. Beauty down to the six.  Chase Young didn't even get blocked right there. Thanks. Oh, he might have been, but so is why. I should maybe not. Maybe I've played that right. Oh, Waller. Waller. Oh, I feel so bad scoring with Waller, but he's so open. Oh, it's wheeling on all over again. Our touchdown goes to Dara Waller, our backup tight end to Micah Sicki. Here's what I'll say is my excuse.  Come on, kicker. Kicker tackle. Kicker tackle. Ramsey's X Factor activated. All thanks to that. Uh-oh. Got to make a really big play on Bo Jackson. Okay, weird, weird juke. Wow, what a ballsy throw. I can't believe he threw that. He's looking for Bo. I don't think he's going to be there. Whoa, what a throw. That was Shake Hat back corner. I've seen that before. Same thing, I think. No, it's not. It's slightly different. Oh, where are you throwing? Wait, what? I didn't lurk that. Oh my God. I thought that was a free lurk. Yes, sir. Oh my God. How did we, what? Okay, well, there's 57 seconds and two timeouts. I still got this. I still got this in the bank. Alrighty, first and 10.  Let's go Rush. Made a man miss. And he's out of bounds. What a play. And there's Jonathan Taylor wide open on the slip screen. Oh, I do not get out of bounds. I'm not going to call a timeout yet. He gives up on Kisiki. I got Kisiki's single coverage. I believe. I really believed in that. Tarnet. Play Bo Jackson just lost. Jalen Ramsey. I couldn't get Mike Kisiki to get up on Carl Hamilton. Dude, I'm getting bottled left and right. He said no, has three sacks. I was struggling right now. I'm going to ask a lot from you, Rush, but let's make it happen. We got to find a way to win. Can't lose the Wettel game. It's too fun. Let's hand it off to Jonathan Taylor. He has been doing solid. Great run right here. Aided hot just in gets the tackle, but that's six yards. Let's see how this looks. Ooh, but Jonathan Taylor fights for it. Could have been real bad right there. And there is Jonathan Taylor right when I need him. I want there to be time for me to stop him.  He must me for a touchdown. I'm fine with that. I'll just go Jonathan Taylor again. I'm just going to keep picking these yards up. Eight for 12, 102. This is a very difficult game, but it's still very winnable.  A little shake out back corner. See if he likes it. And there's Jonathan Taylor on a beautiful route. And I can't imagine he likes that. Jonathan Taylor's getting tired though, dude.  I think he's a man. I think Kisiki's going to be open. Eight-hundreds and can you chill out? Damn it, that's my own lion player too. He's killing me. There's nothing open. Third and goal. I'm looking for more. If not, I couldn't tell you what I'm looking for. Unless this is man. Let's just see, let's just see. Or I need the two point though. Have to get the two point. My pass game is kind of ugly right now. That could have gone one of two ways. He wasn't that open. There he is. There he is. Let's go. We still got three timeouts, three minutes, 16 seconds. Let's go boys. Okay, this was toss. I'm going to get on two tall Jones and get over to it. There it is. Look at all the, yes, let's go. Perfect stop. Knew what he was going to do. Does he chew clock here? He might be chewing clock. Oh, he's not, he's not. Shake hat back corner. Seen him run this about a billion times. He wants to go right here. Yes, he does. Yes, he does. Simmons stopping. Oh, he knows the stop and go. He perfectly played the egg. Great job, but you know what? We're back on offense already. I say we just get back in the end zone and let him play offense again. I'm going dive right at him and Jesus, and Dominic and Sue just chucked my center. Stretch left. Oh my God, and Dominic and Sue. That was so open if he wasn't there. I'm really struggling. Oh, but Jonathan Taylor, do I go for this? I'm going for it. Fourth and one, I won't read option. Fourth and one, there's the handoff. Down to the two 13 rushes, 51 yards. One more. Actually no, I'm passing because he's run committing. I can't stop his edge rush. It's insane. Second and goal from the two. I guess I'm just gonna hand it off to Jonathan Taylor. I believe before, let's go. Carry me. I'm not going for two. I'm going for a one. 21 to 14.  Let's keep it up. A minute 33 to clamp and definitely no two point conversions either. Left side's open. Oh, he's going for the heave.  That kind of sucks, but not really at all. I get a minute 22. Let's see if he goes for two. He might seal his own fate by going for two right now because if he goes for two and doesn't get it, this game's over. I really respect this. Let's see what he wants. This ain't open, none of it's open. You sealed your fate. There goes Matthew Stafford. I'm sorry to do that to you, Stafford. Oh, don't tell me. Oh my God. I would have had an extra two, but he just sealed his own fate. 21 to 20. He's not gonna on side. That, see, that's fine by me. Score that quick. If he scores with no time left, I'm worried. Certainly, I'm not saying I tried to do that though.  He's gotta get back on Mike Evans. He knows I'm running the ball. Jonathan Taylor, a solid run. I think I got two yards there. He's gotta use his timeout, not a run commit. Good run though. Ooh, sheesh. Dude, he's got like a, he really does have a very good user.  Like he's so bad at it. I think Jonathan Taylor's gonna get this and it's game over. He can't, he literally can't guard it. That's game.  Ooh, what a game. We're gonna win by one. Yeah, all I gotta do is one more snap in that game. Just can't fumble this. I shouldn't be juking with the game on the line like this, but yeah, that's more game, maybe. No, let me see the stats, you cuck.  Oh, I don't even get to see the stats. I love seeing the stats. That was an up and down roller coaster of a game, but we clutched up in the third and fourth quarters. Got us the win. I was down at half. He started with the ball. Got the win, boys. Certainly wasn't pretty, but hey, I'm one and all in this new season. All right, boys, I hope you guys enjoyed. If you really liked this video, I kinda wanna do it with hard mode wettel. I think I'll have to play like 50 times to even assemble like the shittiest team ever, but it would still be fun. Either way, hey, love you guys. Thanks for watching as always. Ah, I was a banger. And I'll see you guys in the next video. Peace.


Aw, what's with everybody once again is Brand Man Shine and this video is brought to you by brandmannetwork.com because I signed myself. Now, this clip. This clip is another clip from my interview with Orr Major, rapper who's been killing the game in his own way and really developing it in the indie scene. He's definitely an artist to watch. And this clip is how he actually, actually got it manager. Yeah, straight for is how he got his manager, but how the situation even struck up in the first place. Check it out. It's the network. And what made you decide and recognize Duranicus is like, all right, it's a manager, like for real, for real. We can actually rock together. Because I know you were looking for one, but I also know, you know, you're smart and think enough through where you're not like, all right, just because he said he wanted a link or like, we can do that.  So check this out. I was not living for a manager at all. Like, I wouldn't, it wasn't even on my mind at all. And he was not a manager. Like, none of that, he just had the playlist. That was it. And he loved music and he wanted to get involved. But when again, when I say like natural vibes and just energy and passion, like when we met and he realized he liked my music and realized like that I had potential. He started setting things up that I didn't even ask for. I think he set up a radio interview for me, like within a week of us meeting on Facebook. He was like, yo, I got this radio interview set up again. Then there was this huge Facebook page called Born Famous. He got one of my, he got my first single music video placed on that Facebook page. And so I was like ecstatic, like, yo, what? He was like, yeah, they want to know how I know you. Like, what should I say? And I was like, bro, I've been telling you like, since the radio interview, you might as well tell people you're my manager, you know what I mean? Because you're already doing the work. So after having that conversation, like I'm going to do it just him. Like the first thing he is, he started reading like about management, reading about music, the industry. And he's a quick learner. He put his mind to it. He got the LLC for the management company. And now we are, we are, we just learn like as we go. We don't want to know the industry, like, it's the network. All right. Now there's a couple of things about this video, but there's one big thing that I really, really believe that you should take away from this video. So first and foremost, I'm going to say that just the fact that Orin moves organically, right, and was able to sense some kind of energy, but he wasn't looking for it. That allowed him to really take the situation and analyze from a standpoint where you're not being desperate. So I think that's a benefit for if anybody can find something they will need while they're not in the place of need, it'll be beneficial. But when you think about the way their relationship even struck up in the first place, the fact that Juranicus was running playlist or reached out to him, got on the playlist and Juranicus was actually living on a different side of the country, West Coast versus East Coast, but he liked the music and he started to go to work. That just showed an opportunity that like when you find the right people, you have to figure out how to keep them in the fold. Like maybe everybody's not meant to be a manager right off the bag. For them, it worked out because now Orin is making $20,000 off of streaming. He's doing other things, touring shows, I've seen one of the shows, dope. But the other person that you might encounter, right, they might not be a manager, but if there's somebody who's willing to put in that work and learn right off the bat, without you having to tell them to, right, they're self-motivated, then you have to figure out how do I keep this person around? They might not be my manager, but how can we grow together? And there's so many different things that can come into play like that. But have those conversations. I encourage you to have those conversations because people spend so much time trying to look for this main thing that they're looking for. I need a manager right now or I need a PR person right now, but sometimes these other people come into the fold that are going to be quality. They might not fulfill that exact role, but it's so hard to find. Like not only good people, good people that are good for you invite with you that you need to maintain some sort of relationship. So then further on in your career, they might be able to fill that other role that pops up or they might be able to develop with you. They might end up becoming a day-to-day manager when you end up getting a more seasoned manager, depending on what level you need. They might become some sort of assistant. Whatever that might look like, keep all that stuff open, keep it in mind. But with that being said, if you want to check out this entire interview, you can check it out at brandmannetwork.com.

Wow, here we go again. Is everybody having a good time? Isn't this great to come together for a conference like this and just give yourself permission to open up your heart and go into an experience and feel the relaxation of that, how natural it feels. We've got balloons blowing through the auditorium here, flying through the air. It's got a celebration feel. I think that kind of as we watch these retreats and conferences and gatherings evolve as we go along, as you keep practicing the principles, as you keep trusting and you keep relaxing and opening up, it will take more and more of a celebratory tone. It will come more into celebrations. I mentioned a couple early Course in Miracles teachers who were Bill Thedford's teachers, the Luckets, Jack and Yolalia Lucket. They traveled all over the world sharing the course. They would go to continents and share the course on different continents. Their form of sharing was, they called it garden parties. You know that when the originators kind of went out and they used the word party, that was good because they were sharing not only their teachings of the course and they were very devoted teachers, but they were also very much into the experience of joy. That's why Bill Thedford really left Northern California to go live with the Luckets during the last years of his life. Because of the joy, he was actually attracted to the joy. He had gone through the study phase. He had gone through the workbook. He had gone through course groups. He had gone through going different places. He was actually kind of quiet. He didn't share a lot, as I said, but he came to these garden parties and he also basically moved in with the Luckets. When he passed away, he had his stuff there with the Luckets because he was living with them. That's one of the things I'd like to talk about today because we've had a lot of professional conferences with speakers and so on and so forth and we still have speakers at this one. Actually next summer, we're planning a, it's called Celebration of Interpeace, but actually I mentioned at the conference down in Las Vegas at the presenters meeting at the end that at the Foundation for Interpeace, basically was the original copyright holder. They hold the copyright right now and basically they're the ones in charge of translating the course into all of these different languages. I think we're up to around 20, some 22 or 25 maybe. That's been a great effort. Every time I've talked to Judy, she was very aware of her function as publishing and distributions dissemination. Helen was very aware that she was described. He was like the comforter for Helen because she was very nervous and anxious and had a lot of resistance. Judy told me that they actually went to a psychic reading, all four of them. The reader basically said that in many previous lifetimes, Bill Thedford had been Helen Shuckman's teacher. He didn't even mention him by name. He pointed to him with his eyes closed when he was doing the reading Judy said and just said, this one has been a teacher of that one for many lifetimes and he feels like he's just a fourth wheel and he's not really, Helen's the big show and he's just there to assist and he doesn't have much in terms of contribution, but the whole reading was basically how Bill had a tremendous influence. Actually the reading said that Bill basically had really helped prepare Helen to be able to use her gift, his scribal gift in this lifetime through all those things. So it just gave a much broader thing that nothing is as it seems on the surface and Judy said when the reader said this, you know, his eyes closed, Bill just burst into tears because it was his own unworthiness being healed. It was another reflection that we have no idea about this larger plan that's way beyond what meets the eye in this world and if we even had a faintest glimmering of it, we would weep. We would be crying so hard we would have uncontrollable tears of love if we had a faintest glimmering of the bigger picture. Gary mentioned last night too that Jesus really wasn't a leader. He was a follower of the Holy Spirit. He was a devout follower and that's what allowed him to accept the atonement for himself because he was such a devout follower. And then when he accepted the atonement, we are told that now Jesus is the leader of the plan of atonement. He's the first one to accept his part perfectly and therefore he's in charge of it. That's the words, in charge of. And so anybody who's got any kind of embarrassment or a little resistance to Jesus, which is pretty common, Jerry and I were talking about that, how common that could be to have a resistance to Jesus. But actually he's the one in charge. He's the one, you might say, that's orchestrating time and space. He says, I will go before you. If you'll be America worker for me, I will arrange time and space for you. That's quite amazing. That means that you don't have to hold on to these personal ideas of I have to do this, this, this first. Basically, if you're willing and ready, you are being called. You have, as Doug said the other day, you've already given your consent, as he mentioned in the lesson. So if you've already given your consent and Jesus is saying you are ready now and he's the one in charge, you can't be projecting your unworthiness and oh, not why me and why'd you choose me and maybe you meant that one over there or that one there. They're good. We were all talking, I was talking about how shy I was and Gary and Cindy mentioned how shy she was. What is this, the word, the brigade of the shy people now are coming on? And the first brigade, Jesus was in charge of the plan and you never noticed with Ken and Judy, you go down the line. He picked all these Jews. There are all these Jews all the way around. He got his home team. He's coming in here. Catholics, no. Buddhists, no. They're all Jews if you really sit back and you look at it. And now he's taking the shy brigade to spread the word all over the world. It's like, hey, he is in charge here and we don't have a clue actually from within the dream. You don't really have a clue how big it is and how marvelous it is. So to me, I felt like my relationship with Jesus always came first. And then people have said, a lot of times in Eastern traditions, like with Yogananda and Ramana Maharshi, there's all these gurus, there's lineages. You have a lineage of a guru who teaches you and sometimes they show up in your dreams and it's very psychic and it's been away. People have asked me over and over, David, who was your teacher? Sam just asked me that recently a couple, two, three days ago, who was your teacher? I said, Jesus. Didn't even hesitate. Jesus' voice came to me and it wasn't like an audible voice, but like with Helen, it was a stream of thoughts. And it seemed to be like around the late 1980s when I tuned into that stream and I thought, well, here we go. Life is going to be fun now because of following that teaching, following that instruction. Doug mentioned, too, his big learning curve and how when Regina came in 2005, she had a real two-year, you weren't here, Regina, but he's telling about your two-year little learning curve, where you just jumped right in and got in touch with your internal teacher and then NTI and it's like a way we go. Doug was like, well, I just hung in there with it for 27 years. It took her two to be 27. But if we tune into Christ, if we tune into the Holy Spirit, if we turn into Jesus, we basically are going to be giving our instructions because that's really how it works. You know, we've heard about that, about the Holy Spirit. He will go before you, making straight your path and leaving in your way no obstacles to trip on and no nothing to bar your way. It's just going to be a clear pathway if you are willing to tune in and listen. And it was beautiful that Doug mentioned that which is just about getting in touch with your internal teacher. It's not how long you study the Course. It doesn't have anything to do with time or actually study, but it actually is all designed to put you in touch with your internal teacher. And then once that happens, once that link is made, then your way is set. Now, what does that mean your way is set? It means that the Spirit will go before you and it will give you everything that you're to say and to do. Every person you're to meet, every place you're to move. I remember years ago, Regina talking about, oh, I'm supposed to move to Colorado and here we all are gathered in Colorado. You know, we, she came out, we came out. We, we follow. The plan is very specific, very specific. So you're given what you're to do. You don't have to like analytically figure it out. You don't have to weigh the pros and cons. You don't have to say, try to figure out your future. You actually just have to stay tuned in moment by moment and let the plan be given to you. And that's, that actually runs against all of our conditioning, doesn't it? I mean, we've all been raised to learn and weigh the opportunities, weigh the options and, and really come up with a plan for the future, a two-year plan, a five-year plan, a 10-year plan. That really is out the window. If any of you have ever read, you know, lesson 135, basically in there we're told, a healed mind is relieved of the belief that it must plan. And it also goes on to say, if there are plans, you will be told of one who knows, from one who knows. That's obviously Jesus and the Holy Spirit. So I like that word relieved, relieved of the belief that you must plan. Wow, that sounds very relaxing. That sounds like, that's worthy of our, our effort and attention to come to that. There's even a part in that lesson, you know, where he just gives some conditions like, Doug was talking about conditions for peace.  You can't even know the problem that the plan was made to solve. Wow, I can't even know the problem that the plan was made to solve. Because why? Because the Holy Spirit is here to overlook the problem entirely. We're to come into a state of mind. That's what the plan of salvation is, where we're so in divine innocence, we're so in divine connection, divine love, that we cease to see a problem. If the Holy Spirit looks and in everything and everyone sees himself, then that must be in love. That must mean everything and everyone is to be perceived in forgiveness and then ultimately experienced as just ourselves, just oneself as the Christ. An idea in the mind of God. So this is very different from problem-solving approaches in the world where we're kind of asked to find the problem. You know, that's one of the keys in science, you know, find out what the problem is in business, find out what your problem is so you can go and go for the solution. But with a course of miracles, he's saying, no, if you're going to go for the Atonement, that solution, which is our one sole responsibility, then you're going to have to be quite clueless about the world. If you still want to bring past learning, that's going to block your acceptance of the Atonement. It's kind of like accepting the Atonement and opening to move in that direction, would kind of like be asking a mammal to breathe liquid oxygen. You know, mammals, they're really good with air and it's actually possible for mammals to breathe liquid oxygen. If you pump pink liquid oxygen in a mammal, they can actually breathe that oxygen but it's very difficult. It's very new and they will fight and kick when that liquid goes in. If you put liquid in a mammal's lungs, they're going to fight and kick. That's kind of what Jesus is doing with us with the Spirit. Humans are used to breathing air and he's sending in the liquid of the Holy Spirit. I can survive. I can have mortgage to pay. I can get children. You can't be calling me now. Call me in 10 years. Come on, please. You know, there's a lot of fighting and kicking and screaming. I'm shy. I'm shy. You've got the wrong one. Over there.  I'm shy. You've got the wrong one. Over there. We're going to have to have a shy convention. Shy Course in Miracle speakers, you know. That's what we do anyway when we get together. We go, oh, that's amazing how that happened, you know. So anyway, I know Jesus is in charge. So a lot of the stuff that I've done, I mean, I put lots of stuff on the web and teach a lot of things for free, you know, because basically when you go through the text of the Course early on, basically you've got the three lessons of the Holy Spirit to have give all to all. Wow, is that like breathing liquid? That's going to throw a wrench in your economic financial beliefs. You know, economic survival. She works hard for the money. Oh man, you've got, you've got to undo a lot. That's perhaps the hardest one and that's only the first of the three lessons to have give all to all.  They're just, you ever see little children? Sometimes they're so giving. They're not concerned at all about things. They're just like, oh, what an example. To have, give all to all. And this has been something that's been really important to me because I remember Jesus taught, freely you have received, now freely give. And that means you have to really unlearn a lot of reciprocity, scarcity, lack. If you believe in any of those, you're not going to be into freely, I've received, freely I shall give. There's going to be a part against you in your mind that's going to be careful. Don't be too giving. You're going to pay for this. You're going to be really sorry for being so free with your giving. But Jesus was never sorry. He, he gave and he does tell us later on, I don't know if you remember the 10 characteristics of a teacher of God in the manual for teachers, but I think it's number seven, generosity. He says a really true giving is the exact opposite of what giving is in this world. Exact opposite. That's pretty radical for him to say exact opposite because I think most of us, when we think of generosity, a lot of us can think of like philanthropists who give a lot of money. The Carnegie's, the Ted Turner's, you know, we have, there's a lot of people that are really, they seem to have a lot of wealth, accumulated wealth and they give it away. And Jesus says true generosity is the exact opposite of that, of what generosity seems to be in the world. So what he's telling us to, he's saying, listen, ideas are strengthened as they're given away. They give more to the giver and to the receiver. There's no loss involved in sharing true ideas. And that's why everyone's given a teaching function to share true ideas. And really it's not you who do it. So it's not, you don't have to be concerned and say, well I'm not a very good speaker and I'm not going to, I don't know if I'll say the right words and, you know, you could see in these beautiful roundtables, you could speak from your heart. That's the very beginning stages of learning to clear away the darkness and let those true ideas pour through you and let them be strengthened in your awareness. Now that's generosity. If Jesus tells me that the only function the body has is to let the voice for God speak through it, I'm going to take that very, very sincerely. In fact, if you look at the parable of David, I was into, I was into cub scouts, boy scouts. I camped out in places like this. I, I skied, I played tennis, basketball, baseball. I did all kinds of things with this body. And then in my late 20s when I gave myself over to Jesus in the chorus in a very, you might say, uncompromising radical way, he said, listen I want to let my voice speak through it. And that's just a metaphor for your purification of your consciousness. Don't think that there isn't anything special about being a voice piece for the Holy Spirit. It's just, this is how the backdrop will look for your transformation in consciousness and it will look different for other people. Some will sing through the body, some will laugh through the body, some will hug through the body. I like all those, all of the above. It gives you an opportunity to just let the love flow through you in an involuntary way where you're not still trying to consciously decide where the miracles should be bestowed. Jesus says, I'll go before you and I'll tell you which miracles to perform. He had a lot of teachings, he talked about Edgar Cayce. He called him Cayce, but he said Cayce had a great contribution to the plan of awakening. He said it could have been even more productive, more helpful if he had asked me which miracles to perform. Isn't that something? Everyone knows, Edgar, what was a tremendous contribution and it would have been more helpful if he had asked me. Now just from what I've said right there, it should tell you how important it is to get in touch with your internal teacher. Because if you want to be most helpful in the plan, you have to be in touch with the internal teacher. As Dove was sharing, you know, Dove studied the course for, worked with the course for 27 years just to come to that point of realizing that, oh my gosh, it's just being in touch with the internal teacher. And the quicker you can come to that, the more you're just available and helpful in the plan. If you're in touch with your internal teacher, you don't have to be comparing yourself. I wish I could sing like this one, I wish I could speak like this one, I wish I had the memory and the recall of this one. You don't have to get into all this comparison. You know, your way could be one of deep stillness. There's a part in The Course in Miracles where it says, a teacher of God could heal the world without a sound. Without a sound. Wow, that would be an interesting pathway.  All you do is complain after 30 years. You know, we could get called into the silence and that very well could be our contribution in the plan of atonement. I know Regina's been being called into the silence more and more. She mentioned that and Tony mentioned to me again when I talked to him in California, you know, we have to start to realize that the mechanism of miracles, the mechanism that we really wake up to the atonement is really prayer. It's the prayer of the heart is what activates us to accept the atonement. And words are but symbols of symbols twice removed from reality. So the ego made the symbols and basically with The Course Jesus is saying we want to use those symbols in a helpful way. And the body is part of that as well. I know that powerful healing session that took place here. We were talking about yesterday that happened yesterday and then the discussions came in about the body. I would basically say that yeah, the body is just a symbol that the Holy Spirit can use, Jesus can use, that will strengthen your determination, strengthen your inspiration, deepen your prayer and to go for the ultimate healing and truly the only healing which is atonement. I know for a lot of people in Christian science, Course in Miracles, you know, healing is a big topic and I was speaking in Michigan many years ago and a woman came to me after the talk and said can we take a walk together later in the week and I said yes. And when I met with her she said that she was 100% healer. 100% healer is basically anyone who ever came to her their symptoms left. Not only physically but psychologically and her healing modality was tuning into her guide, her internal teacher. She would join with the internal teacher and she would listen and follow to the internal teacher and whoever she met with whether they were there in person or remotely their symptoms would disappear. And so we were walking. I said that's wonderful. What a great use of your life to be used in that way. And she said I've got questions. It's okay. So we took a walk and the first question was she said there was a man that contacted me from Oklahoma. She was living in Michigan and the man I think was diagnosed with cancer terminal illness and he said I've heard about you and I want to join with you in prayer because I really want to be healed. And then she was internally told tell him to come to Michigan. I said okay. So what's the question? And she said well why did the Holy Spirit ask him to come to Michigan if remote healings are possible? Why come all the way across the country? I said wait a minute. Whoa whoa whoa.  Why now are you questioning the Holy Spirit about one of his instructions? And she's like oh oh yeah I see that. That's not really a question is it? I said no. That's she said that's right. That's not even a question. That's not my real question anyway. I've got a real I've got a real question. I said okay so continue on the walk.  I said yeah that's that's how it works. And she said and it happens over and over and over. Sometimes it's the same people they come with different symptoms. They just come. I go through the same thing. They have different symptoms. The symptoms disappear. They keep coming. They keep coming. They keep coming. And so she looked me right in the eye and she said David what is healing? Now you see you have to understand the context of how profound this is for someone going through that experience to raise the question what is healing? And what we did was I brought my Course in Miracles book along. We popped up in the book in the workbook lesson and you know what the workbook lesson was you probably can guess it some of you. Only salvation can be said to cure. Only salvation. Healing is not removal of symptoms. That's window dressing. Because Cindy was sharing this. Now when you pray for healing the symptoms may stay. They may disappear. But you are not to be invested in the outcome and appearances. What's the first lesson of the workbook? Nothing I see means anything. So let's run that through this whole idea about symptoms and appearances. Let's run that through lesson number one. The first lesson of the course. Healing and atonement are not separate. Healing and atonement are identical. Symptom removal is looking to effects. And what does it tell us in the Course in Miracles? The Holy Spirit looks not to effects it says. And if you want to accept the atonement and remember yourself as God created you you have to look to the Holy Spirit and not to effects. Now last night Gary and Cindy were bringing up the idea Cindy mentioned is I am the cause of the world. And Gary mentioned the world is not done to me the world is done by me. But ultimately even the world is done by me is just basically saying the ego projected the world. When we identify with the ego with our powerful mind that's how the projection seems to occur. When you try to get rid of this fearful guilty feeling by projecting out a world and blaming the world oh the world did it to me I'm a victim of my the time I was born my culture my society my parents my siblings you know my teachers my doctors my nurses that's all just a projection of the ego so even when we say the world was done by me we're just we're just acknowledging that that's what miscreation is that's not there's no truth in that if God didn't create the world believe me the world can't be done by Christ the world is done by taking a powerful mind and giving it over to a crazy tiny mad idea belief and that's where the distortion occurs that's where it's a misidentification of forgetting your Christ self falling asleep and identifying with the ego I was just talking with the with a woman who's part of Sounds True because Sounds True is is really big right here in Colorado so Aud Yashanti and Eckerd a lot of a lot of amazing beautiful teachers use Sounds True and we were having a good discussion having a tea at a tea house and she was saying I think the biggest problem is when I start to think that I'm responsible for my state of mind is then I start to think oh and I'm also responsible for this mess and I feel bad and she said most people who get into metaphysics and spirituality they get to a certain point where they start to feel bad about whatever wars cancer arguments and families I'm doing this to myself the secret of salvation is but this you are doing this to yourself he's talking about the dynamic of it's just your mind and your thoughts and as long as you're identified with those judgments and attack thoughts you seem to be doing it to yourself that's not God's will as Maria said God's will is for joy God's will is for happiness you know you've got to live your happy but you aren't going to live your happy if you stay identified with attack thoughts and with judgments Jesus taught us in the Sermon on the Mount judge not so when she was talking to me she said how do you address that David how does the Course in Miracles address this responsibility question and I said well the most important line for me in the Course was Jesus telling me you are not responsible for the error you are responsible for accepting the correction for the error wow there's some true responsibility that'll take you back to divine innocence so all this shadow work that we're talking about all this raising the darkness to the light all this bringing illusions to the truth is only for one point where you can align with your internal teacher and accept your divine nature hop off the wheel of processing hop off the wheel of the steps of forgiveness and go for atonement which literally lifts you and carries you with the Holy Spirit and Jesus's help into a place of perfect innocence where you can honestly feel in your heart I have never done anything wrong ever or right isn't that nice that last part you've never done anything wrong or right because you're not the doer the doer is a body we've just been convinced that behaviors are who we are it's not the truth before Abraham was I am before Jesus and the apostles I am before history was I am yeah try that one on for yourself take it in before history was I am that's why there's two parts in the course where Jesus says forgive me your illusions what do you think he's talking about except forgive history forgive the man forgive the behaviors forgive everything forgive the crucifixion forgive the seeming resurrection rolling away the stone forgive all the images have no graven images before the lord thy god wow we're starting to really get a sense of what that means hold no graven images hold no appearances before the lord thy god now as Gary and Cindy were saying you're still going to be guided to do things in this world that's just the gentle way of waking up of following your internal teacher I don't think there's a more gentle way that there could be than to listen and follow your internal teacher that's why the whole course is just aimed at that dove quoted from lesson 189 forget this world forget this course and come with holy empty hands into your god it's really aiming us to follow our internal teacher now people have seen me traveling to these 40 some countries and sharing all the things that I've done over these last 20 25 years of travel and 30 years with the course but there's some beautiful ones that came that just kind of dropped into my lap one time I was down in Argentina and I would go out into the rural areas and they couldn't afford the course down there these were like a lot of them women with children and they love the course but they couldn't afford to buy the book they would have xerox copies of one chapter and all these women would huddle around at one of the women's house they invite me to come there and they would pass around a xerox copy of one of the chapters in espanol you know cursa demilagras and they would they would really like they did gold in their hands and if they couldn't get another copy they'd do the same chapter over and over and over because they couldn't afford to buy the book so jesus was talking to me and and after the two or three trips down to argentina he said you know these people are ready for my course but they can't afford to buy the book as the book's being printed up in the united states by the time it gets shipped down to Buenos Aires there's all these fees and then to get it out into the rural areas argentina is a big country that one woman actually honestly said tears in her eyes she said it took me a half month salary to buy on cursa demilagras think of that saving up a half month salary to buy the book and so jesus was speaking to me when i came back i had all these signs and symbols around me about the things that the bible went through in europe and it was coming in very strong you've got to get the course of miracles in spanish in an affordable way to the people of south america and so i went down to bogota and i could feel it swirling right after that in my heart really strong jesus is like here we go you know what jesus says in the course is it cannot be difficult to do the cret the task that christ appointed you to do for it is he who does it he was almost like watch me watch me get this into the hands of the people in south america you watch me i go to a meeting i meet this guy a burto and uh i walk up to him and i said i think we've got something to do with getting a course in miracles down here in south america in an affordable way because jesus is on my heart very strong and he's moving very swiftly here and he says great how it's almost like helen and bill you know bill giving his speech you know to helen there must be a better way and thinking helen would laugh at him and she went you're exactly right bill and i'll help you alberta he looked at me and he said alberta mendoza he said you're exactly right and i'll help you and it took us about a couple years to get the plates from the foundation for inner peace shipped down to a factory in columbia rural columbia and we had it printed on bible paper and thousands and thousands tens of thousands were printed and they were shipped and disseminated all over south america i even went down to the factory itself where the books were printed and then we hopped on a plane and i and i took a whole box of them over to uh let's say medicine and when i got there there was a whole course of miracle center in medicine and they saw this big box that it took three of us to bring it in and they ripped it open and it took them 30 seconds to take out all the books they were so thirsty for incurso demilagros down there and so nowadays can you tell me which book has have been printed and sold the most the english version or the spanish version what do you think spanish overtook the english jesus is in charge of this plan he will put that book where he wants it everybody was so concerned about the copyright of the course of miracles and how it could be stolen and leaked and all these different things could happen and i've heard all these different things about it everything hey listen this is jesus's plan and i remind you about the lesson in a workbook of a course of miracles myself is ruler of the universe my capital self is ruler of the universe christ is the ruler of the universe if any of you think the ego is ruling this universe you better think again because jc central man they handle everything you don't miss a thing i do you see every move i make jesus is in charge he's not only following like like gary said oh boy is he in charge he's really in charge of time and space and he can handle anything in your life the power of prayer from from cancer financial issues whatever if you link in with that internal teacher you've got a good link and your problems don't have a chance i guess the power and the glory of god coming through jesus christ so that was one little example of how i just linked in and jesus has his way with everything in fact you know people talk about the copyright controversy with the course and all the everything went through and da da da da i was talking to judy i had lunch with her and she actually had a reading done where this was before there was any copyright controversy but she was getting up in years and she basically had this reading done and the reading told her you have one more forgiveness lesson in this lifetime and it involves a copyright she knew it before it happened she we talked about how that happened we went into the fine details the script is written as we talked about last night the script is written everything is is part of a pre-arranged plan and we are simply mentally reviewing what has already gone by we don't we can't understand anything from the linear perspective next time you're tempted to take a side to take a position to have a favorite or or push something away think again that's not the plan of salvation so that was even forecast everything that everyone would seem to do was all part of the the script it's everything was forecasted that is definitely a part of ken's lesson everyone sometimes holds ken up on a pedestal but basically ken came to judy and he said i want this copyright ken and the foundation for course of miracles wanted the copyright from fip from the foundation for inner peace and judy knew that was going to be a lesson when ken told her i'm not going to handle the copyright the way you did there would be lessons involved in that there's some hard lessons why i can tell you why jesus tells you in a course in miracles ownership is a dangerous concept if left to you what is the copyright ownership it's just a symbol but it's it's dangerous if you identify with it in any way if you have the slightest thought i am controlled now of that book oh boy oh no jc central's in charge of absolutely everything and anything that you try to do that goes against jc central will result in difficulty and ken himself would later say well that was a mistake you know in fact after ken passed away guess what the foundation for course in miracles did they handed it back to the foundation for inner peace the lesson is forgiveness the lesson is not being identified with anything you must realize the impossibility of ownership ultimately because in heaven there is no ownership you don't get to heaven and say oh where's my acreage i got a lot of abundance i did a great life on earth do i have some abundance going on here in heaven well you don't have any real estate you have just a real it's called spirit the seven what there's not seven virgins in heaven so you know people talk about this stuff but basically you know when i talk about the community that i've set up is basically it's not based on personal ownership people say that's a cult that's radical everything no it's not come on now let's get honest let's look at the teachings of a course in miracles you know basically freely you have received now freely gift haven't all the mystics and saints been telling us to share just share there's plenty here if we let the holy spirit lead the way these round tables that you're getting started that's good but that we've been doing expression sessions for many many years that people i brought along with me they're like this is cool round tables and expression sessions everyone's equal everyone shares from the heart nobody holds anything back you have love and acceptance i've been doing this for years and years and years and it leads to telepathy it leads to open hearts it leads to joy and left or in love there's nothing new under the sun this where it's a time the idea has come i was saying at the end of the first one yesterday this could be our way of relating why don't we just have round tables everywhere let's do every conference with round table expression sessions let's dance let's sing let's celebrate also practical speaking you know i'm interested in what's happening with jesus's plan when i met with judy's daughter tamra who's taking over because judy's 87 and wits 90 now and that's our tribe you know and so foundation for inner peace and so i i talked with him and tamra is like well actually mom has had no business plan all these years and her business plan is pray and ask and follow she has no business plan and actually tamra told me that the foundation for inner peace was there they were in some financial difficulty oh the elders the publishers the ones that have translated it into these 20 22 25 languages have to need some help and of course the help is going to come from jc central because everything happens for a reason there's nothing out of place but when she said that to me i said okay so at one lunchtime i said wow this is great that we're all here and judy said let us all hold hands we were at a circular table again a round table let us all hold hands and pray like the original four did ken judy helen bill they prayed she told me the whole story about when they prayed for publishing and helen said judy will hear the answer and judy heard make the commitment first some of you know that part of the story well we all prayed and when they came to me they said david what did you hear and i heard fun razor let's have a fun razor fun f u n that's what jc central sees they don't jc central doesn't seem a lack of funds he sees we need a fundraiser that's what gary was saying we need we need to have fun with this we can't take this too serious let's have a fundraiser so that's what we're doing next july 17th out here in the west except one state over at the monastery tamra is coming judy and whit don't really travel he's got a pacemaker and he's 90 and they're really content anybody here can go and visit them they would love it but they don't travel but but probably bob rosenthal and tamra who will be taking over in september or so as the new co-directors of the foundation for inner peace i think they'll be there john monday has agreed to come john was a very good friend of helens carol howe carol howe what a magnificent teacher new bill i've had talks with her for years she tells me all the intimate details and miracles of their relationship she's going to come and she said one of the things she would talk about at the celebration of inner peace we're calling it the celebration of inner peace we aren't going to have speakers we're just going to let the holy spirit in jc central speak we're not going to have speakers so you're not coming to hear a speaker you're just going to come to hear celebration and joy moving through we're not going to have speakers but but basically she said she would talk about the legends and the elders isn't that fun i'm interested to hear about the legends and the elders i'd like to get the luck it's maybe i could get them over to from hawaii that's just another example and for some people may they may say well i thought the foundation of inner peace was perfectly fine financially but actually basically i was told that with every translation it's about a half a million dollars because these translations you're not translating some factory manual this is the translation of a course in miracles to try to keep the meaning the same and they keep revising the translations but between hiring professional translators can working with them for years and years and all the transportation and everything and then the publishing of it in a distribution they were saying that each translation averages a half a million dollars count that add those up and see how maybe the elders and maybe all of us could could do with supporting the elders if we want it to be continued to be translated into languages if we value that if we feel like that's a valuable use of time and space we hook in with jc central and maybe he will activate us to listen learn and do to actually be active in doing something about that that's the way it's gone for me i didn't plan on you know going to the jungles of of columbia to print the course of miracles in spanish on bible paper but i was activated and i think all of us can be activated in a good way and that just may be part of your calling and maybe like regina there are those that go into silence for deep long periods that's it's very traditional when you look at yoga nanda remana maharshi and the great saints then that has to be fully something that you can go yes i will this is my heart this is what my heart is calling me to do also i've been talking to some of you because some of you have been saying hey it's good to have you out here in the west you know it's like you made it to colorado all right that's this part actually uh the next big kind of conference is going to be in san francisco in 2018 but now i know of four events that are going to be out here next door in utah we're actually having not only the celebration of celebration of inner peace on july 17th next year at the monastery but nearby in midway jimmy twyman has anyone heard of jimmy twyman the peace troubadour jimmy twyman and i got talking about this these kind of things and he's very much you know he went off to pray with saddam hussein do a concert for saddam hussein and he more recently went to syria uh to do a concert there and so he's very inspired by the course and he said let's do like a a conference somewhere out there maybe he found a nice lodge in midway so i think that's going to be in april of next year and then we're going to do a another like retreat shortly thereafter i think the same week the weekend will be the conference in the lodge in midway and then we'll do at the monastery a smaller thing we've got a stage we like to sing we like to laugh we do our parties we don't have seven virgins but maybe you're part of that i don't know seven virginians okay we just show's got a tweak of that seven virginians yeah yeah so what what that means is is and and i think too bad and sure you're gonna you're organizing maybe a couple of those at least two out of three or something like this so so we've got really the spirit is just activating us let's get into the joy let's get into the love let's get into the happiness let's live the experience of this the theories the theologies even the course the theology of the course you will have to forget the theology of the course people say it's blasphemy no it's not blasphemy it actually is when you come into the atonement the atonement is the awareness that the separation never happened how do you have a theology covering the waking up from what never happened when you step into an experience of innocence of divine innocence so in the end that's part of forget this course that dove mentioned is you do have to forget the the theology does hit it right on the head with the perfect equality because we don't go into oneness without perfect equality first and also we've emphasized practice but we're really talking about practicing getting in touch with your internal teacher because in the end the ego enjoys studying itself and jesus and jc central is not asking you to make a ritual ultimately out of a course of miracles if you study the workbook it will tell you if you do it it will say art our use for words is almost over we're letting go of rituals we but go into the silence and let the holy spirit direct the way and then of course dove mentioned the last five lessons of the workbook this holy instant what i give to you be you in charge are there any more powerful words to launch beyond the course of miracles and in touch with your internal teacher you may still refer to it in gratitude you may still use it but it's not saying just cast it aside and never look at it again but but as far as it being your companion on this journey there will come a point where you transcend the course of miracles hallelujah hallelujah for that too we're we're into the joy of that okay i see the beaming smiles they're coming on thank you all thank you thank you thank you


Good morning, it's Sunday morning, December 5th, the time is at 10.03 a.m. I almost said September 5th, it's not September, and it's not December, holy cow, it's January. Oh boy. I swear to God, I've had all my coffee. I swear. Sunday night, so we went, I'll head it out for a walk, blah, blah, blah. I have to tell you all earlier, it was so nice, we went to the home improvement expo. Is that what it's called? Anyway, you know, one of those ones where you have all the contractors for landscaping and concrete roof, and since we're new to the area, we thought it would be good to go there and get some contacts, which we did, so we're gonna have some estimates done on some work that we kinda wanna have done in the coming year or two. Anyway, what the nice thing about it was, we met a pair of complete strangers on the way in, they said, are you going to the show? And we said, yeah, they said, good, here's two free tickets. I don't know if they changed their mind, or they had extra tickets, I don't know, but they gave us two tickets. Anyway, we're gonna go for a walk now, we'll be back. Contrary to what I said earlier this morning, when I said it was September and then December, it's actually January, 2020. And we have a few holdouts for Christmas lights. Look at this here. Oh yeah, hang on. Stop doing it. I think she's part like, I don't know, bloodhound or something? What's over here? What's this, what's this, what's this? All she does is that, she just gets, she's crazy, that's why we call her crazy pants. That's all she does, she walks with her nose to the ground, sniffing everything, and eating all the grass and plants, coughing them up, then eating some more. She's crazy. So good morning. It is just before 11 a.m., Monday morning, January 6th, I think. And it's been quite a Monday. So I talked to the lady down at City Hall about my business license for which I never got the renewal. And I realized when I was getting ready to do the end of the year paperwork that my license has expired. So we got that taken care of this morning. And her comment to me was, yeah, there's a whole bunch of people she's finding out, never got their renewal. They never emailed anybody, like yeah. So anyway, I took care of that this morning. Then I found that it looks like we have a small leak around one of the windows. Of course it's in the master bedroom and it's the transom window above the door leading out into the back patio. So that's an issue. And I'm not tall enough to hang plastic on it or anything. So I've got the contractor coming by this afternoon to do that. And hopefully it doesn't get too much worse before he can get here. And of course it's just pouring down rain right now. And it's going to be for like the next five or six days or more. Yeah, so welcome to Monday. Lily's out here wandering around the garage cause of course I had the door open. So yeah, anyway, I'm going to go try to edit the vlog, not stress out about the window too much. I have a doctor's appointment on Friday. I've got to get my hair done tomorrow. Like it's just going to be a week, you know? You can see a building. Yeah, I'll be back. So I know I told y'all about the leaky window. I think I told y'all about the fact that I never got the renewal on my business license. And I didn't know why I didn't get the renewal and I did get a hold of the lady at City Hall. We took care of that. She said a whole bunch of people didn't get it. And don't know why I didn't get an email. Anyway, I also came out here to get some plastic to have ready for the contractor in case you needed it to cover up the window that's leaking so we can get it to dry out and have it not get any more leaky cause it is raining. I do live in Oregon. And there was a brown spot on the floor where my husband's car normally is parked in. Evidently he has an oil leak. Yeah, welcome to Monday. I also had to close out the 2019 books and I found a few mistakes, but I got them corrected. Is Monday over yet? Cause like, yeah, I really like it to be over now. I did get a couple of paper clips done. I'll insert some pictures here. I'm using some of the spillage from acrylic pouring to create some paper clips, including some paint skins and the inside of some of the cups I put the paint in before I do the pouring. And they're turning out pretty interesting, I gotta say. I like the message that I'm seeing in the artwork and I like the imagery. So yeah, I'm good with it. So anyway, yeah, I'm gonna work on my list of things I wanna do tomorrow. Tomorrow's out of the day, out of the day house. Out of the house day, at least for a few hours I'm gonna go get my hair done and I'm gonna run errands, go buy the PO box and stuff like that. So I'm gonna work on my list of places to go, things to do, stuff to get and yeah, maybe make another paper clip. All right, I'll be back. Good morning, everybody. It's Tuesday, I think it's January 7th. I filmed this a couple times because I keep saying June. Anyway, it's just about 10 a.m. And we are obviously in the car. It's an errand day. I have an appointment in about an hour to get my hair done. I'm making a quick stop at Michael's to get some wood, more wood pieces to do more art paper clips with. And then we're gonna head over to the salon and I've got to rent at the grocery store and all that stuff. So hopefully it's not a repeat of yesterday because I forgot to take any pain medication before I left. I forgot to bring my Kindle with me to read while I'm getting my hair done. Like I forgot a lot of stuff this morning. So, okay, it's 1241. We just got out of the hairdresser and I got a few new products from her to try for my hair. The ones I've been using are ones that was recommended to me by my California person. They're hard to get up here and it's time to try something new. So I have that. And I haven't even lunch yet, I'm starving, but I'm gonna go by Fred Meyer on the way home, try to get the rest of my list done before I go home, which I should be able to get all of this. Crush your fingers. I'll be back. Out walking in the rain.  That's the theory anyways. We'll find out if it's true. I'll be back. I would say good morning, but it's afternoon, I'm pretty sure. It's Wednesday, December 8th, I think. Yeah, 8th. I don't know what time it is, it's after lunch. I am chatting with my friends online. Where are we? There we are, they're in the other corner. Filmed a sort of a podcasting for the Arts Play Through Crime and Pain thing, a Facebook group. I'll put the link for the group in the description below. I made four paper clips today that are all drying. I've got a few more blanks. As I'm making the paper clips, I'm taking a few of my spare paper clip parts and found objects and things. And I'm gonna put them in here, put a little basket together and send it to someone. I don't know who yet. I have a little idea in the back of my brain. Someone who likes little pieces of junk and painting scraps and oddball things that they can make art with. I also put a box together for my friend Vicki Brown that I'm gonna send her of things I need to purge for Project Pan 2020. And one of the things I need to do is I need to inventory my Daniel Smith paints and mark on this new set of swatch cards, which colors I actually own and which I don't, because my collection's getting big enough that I've lost track. So that's a thing. I might do that today. I also have something I wanna work with this extra clay at some point before it dries out. That's it all. That's all I can think of at the moment, just trying to keep busy. So I keep my mind off my doctor's appointment on Friday. All right, that's it. I'll be back. Hey guys, it's Wednesday evening and we're out in the darkness and the drizzle walking again. Because evidently that's what we do. Oh, I got her. Got her. Yeah. She's wrapped around my legs. I'm not going anywhere. Like seriously. See that. Anyway, I got a lot of artwork stuff done today. Daughter-cooked dinner. She's very good at that. I'm happy for her to do it as much as she wants while she's living in our house. I'm curious about it. Had a nice recorded conversation with Cindy Utter and Peg Robinson. No grass, Lily. A recorded conversation for art play through chronic pain. Hold on, I gotta grab the dog. All right. Anyway, it's barely a drizzle. I'm not too worried about getting wet. Didn't bring the umbrella. I'm not the wicked witch, I won't melt. But anyway, I recorded a nice conversation with Peg and Cindy. Sort of a podcast type vlog. I was looking for a word. If you want to watch those, we're probably gonna do them on a semi-regular basis. You have to be a member of art play through chronic pain. So that's a Facebook group, I'll link it below. I also have some videos I need to record. I didn't get done today, but I need to do that soon. Like by Wednesday next week-ish. But I got a lot of other stuff done. So anyway, we're gonna go out for a walk, get some exercise in, get some steps in. Cause you know, gotta be as healthy as I can for as long as possible, right? Can't make art if I'm not. All right. Right? I know. Not good art anyways. Unless I'm free to call her, which I'm not. So she made some great art when she was not, well, whole other conversation. All right, I'll be back. Good morning, everybody. It is Thursday morning, January 9th. My little sister, Elizabeth's birthday. Happy birthday, Elizabeth. I'm headed, obviously headed out. I wasn't gonna go out today, but I'm trying really hard to keep really busy. I talk about why over in the chronic pain vlog, which is over in art play through chronic pain. Anyway, I have anxiety issues. So in case for those that don't know. So anyway, it's a high anxiety week. And I had way too much coffee this morning. So that was a thing. Anyway, I need to get out of the house. I need to be busy. I'm already did a little art. I've got laundry working. I'll finish that when I get back. And I'm gonna go mail some boxes and get a few things at the grocery store. And yeah, all that kind of stuff. So not super exciting, but you know, it's overcast today, but it's not rainy. So I'm hoping it stays that way and that we can go walking later, hopefully. Anyway, I'll let you know what happens and I'll be back. Sorry, that's a landscape. There we are. Maintenance truck behind me for the noise. Now walking, it's about two o'clock-ish. It's just after two. By myself, I'm not using GPS. So we'll see if I get lost so far, so good. Decided to get some stuff. Headed home, guess what? I didn't get lost and I didn't have a map on not once.  It's Friday morning, it's 8.36 a.m., January 10th, I think. I've had no coffee because I'm headed to the doctor's office this morning for my annual checkup. Great way to start the day, right? But afterwards, I'm gonna be stopping at Goodwill to drop off some donations and then going to Joanne's, so it's all good. All right, that's it for so far for this morning. I think the whole family is working at home today. So I don't think I'm getting any recording done. I don't know if I'm getting any art done. It's Saturday morning, January 11th, I almost said June. It is 10.19 a.m. and I am upstairs trying to get a few things done before I go out to run errands. Things up here are drying. I'm trying to do the project pan thing and use stuff up. I've almost used up all of my stash of Deco Arts clear pouring top coat, which I do love. Again, I wanna use stuff up. So I'm thinking about doing their triple thick on top of it, maybe water it down, but I'm gonna go online and see where the local places are that have clear pouring top coat. I might need to pick up a jar today, so along with other things. Anyway, that's it for the moment, I'll be back. So I'm finally headed out to go run some errands by myself. It took me over an hour to talk to husband into not coming with me. He kept saying, let me just do one more thing and hang on a second, I'll come with you and we have to be back by one 30 because the game, a football game is gonna be on and I'm like, let me just go. I'll just go, I'll be back. You can stay here, you don't have to worry about missing your game. I am finally headed out of the house. Gonna go to McCann's and then Joanne's and then Fred Meyer. So we are gonna get out and get to it. All right, I'll be back. Hey guys, I think the lighting kind of sucks because it's dark out. There you go. There you go. Hey, thank you dear. We're out for an evening walk in the rain again with Lily. With the pooch. With the pooch, yeah. Anyway, it's been a fun week. It's been an interesting week. I'm glad my doctor's appointment is over with and now I can relax a little bit. I have to wait for the test results before I'm fully relaxed, but you know. Anyway, I got no art done today but hopefully I can get some done tomorrow maybe. I think we're gonna try out the new gym which I'm nervous about a little bit but I'll let you know how it goes in the next vlog. Anyway, don't forget to like, share and subscribe if you have questions, comments or concerns leave them down below and above all, go out and have a great day. Have a great week and do something nice for yourself because you deserve it. We'll see you later. Bye guys.


What's up guys and welcome to trendy updates on our SPM birds. Now on to the trending news today is former Nairobi governor Mike Sonko who confirms that he was indeed with Jackie Maribel on the night of Monica Kimani was murdered. Now we know Jackie Maribel has been a suspect of Monica Kimani's murder and while seeking to be acquitted of murder charges in the ongoing Monica Kimani's case, the journalist says that she never knew the business woman. She only learned of her dad while reading news of her brutal murder on Citizen TV. Now the former Citizen TV journalist added that on the night of September 19, 2018, which is when Monica is suspected to have been brutally murdered, she was at Royal Media Services Studios doing interviews up to around midnight. And of course that is when she said that they met up with former governor Mike Sonko which he has been able to confirm through a post he put up on social media. Through I was with Jackie Maribel at Citizen TV when I was being interviewed in the JKL show after which I volunteered to take all those who are with me for convenience. Now around 4am I left for home. Mike Sonko was there from the day Jackie was arrested. I managed to download the Citizen TV at the Club Eco. However, I do not know Joey Erongo and I do not support his actions at all on that material day and if he murdered Monica Kimani, let the law take its course. We know Joey Erongo was also a suspect in the murder case of Monica Kimani. That night, as she says, we had drinks at Club 4040 till 4am. I had no motive or no any plan for Monica's murder. I did not know Monica Kimani. I had never met her nor communicated with her. Of course, Joey Erongo said that he was not at Monica's Kimani house in the night. She was brutally murdered. And of course he denied before Court ever knowing Monica prior to her death. But Kenyans have reacted to this story and I have a few comments for you. One boy, Shane, says, he and I came to a lie. The case is that I had a son who sold his Kenya. Then a Vesh Bank says I'm here just wondering what Sonko was doing in a club at 4am and he's a whole unmarried man. Kimati 524 says, I have a 5-year-old Vesh Bank. All right, those are Kenyans reacting to Mike Sonko confirming that he was indeed with the TV, Informa TV personality Jackie Maribel on the night Monica Kimani was murdered. Let us know down on the comments section what are your thoughts about this topic. But in the meantime, keep it trendy, update, HAPPA SPM BIRDS.
