Alrighty, this might be the fight you've all been waiting for in one corner We got Goku and in the other we have the assassin hit considering Goku is our last fighter I mean we have Manaka, but let's be honest That's not gonna pan out is it and Champa has hit who is very very clearly his strongest fighter We're gonna hop into it Goku seems to have made sort of a move if you're new to channel don't forget to drop us up and let's get started He's blue Hit what he was doing want to crit hit to lower his guard make him make him think that he's showing his hand But it wouldn't even matter Ice block at all of them So he was getting in a better hits when he wasn't even in Super Saiyan blue when he kind of like shocked him But maybe this is because he hadn't wasn't taking him seriously yet. Oh, he's not even using it I thought you're just using it like split-second Oh He looks Oh, he was just trying to do it with without the time skip. Why would he not like I said to underestimate him I can't tell if Goku was thinking about it in that light He hasn't really gone on the offensive yet either. Oh, wait. No. Yeah, that is the stance Oh, this is what he used against Frost. Oh, this is what it looks like when time isn't really frozen for him But Goku still hit him Yeah, but I imagine he has much more up his sleeve, but she the jealous Okay, dude, I don't know I think Goku would have figured this out either way Is he crying oh Buddy is mad Powering up. That's how people power up in Dragon Ball with the program mama. He was actually just powering up, but he looks the exact same It was back in position. I expected like a luscious main to sprout from his head He seems more ahead of the curve this this go around Yeah, it didn't look like he changed much Yeah, he still didn't show him what's happened. There's no way he screamed like that and nothing changed or barely anything changed He's playing the long con Yeah, it was a long con Thank you mister announcer. I think as long as his hair isn't isn't like fade and go back to black He's still got some energy in the tank. That's what I would assume. He's out No shot. He kind of baited Goku in Ability through some kind of noisy transformation brother. I don't have the luxury of cutting corners I just have to do a prove a fighting move in the middle of this. He's training I've managed to jump twice as far into the future bro doubled in the middle of the match He's got some ulterior motive here. Does he just respect Goku get on your feet dang Now he knows Goku can keep going. That's why he does respect him. I think it's because of you I've improved my technique thinking him. Wow, but I hope he wins now New to new stance. He's more open. He's that way my favorite out of all of Champa's fighters He's the coolest cross is just a freeze a knockoff freezes better because freeze actually commits to the evil bit Actually, I liked Megetta too. I only take a few more shots like that You just have to be faster To tense isn't that far out of reach is it not? Oh It's a weak point this chest Was just clapping his cheeks and frozen time if it gets more than two the two tenths of a second then That time I've times better than my initial.  Of course. Goku can't keep up with that while back.  Oh, no, he's up Yo, this round flow. He got money on Goku. He's like I give it a little bit more time seems you're too proud to No, that's Vegeta Working on something No shot we doesn't know What is it like self-inflicted in In the middle Something past Super Saiyan blue. It's God plus Super Saiyan. What can you stack on top of that stack another god on top of the god on top of the Super Saiyan I thought it was genuinely just curious for a second.   It wasn't that have the best fight possible spires even his opponents. Oh Wait, no hair color change. No nothing. Wait. Was he doing what it did and it was just like the hype himself up. Oh Oh, hey Kyle Ken was Super Saiyan got a plus Super Saiyan. Oh Okay, it was not just for show Kyle Kim was kind of put off to the side once he got Super Saiyan and dude the first time they bought That's actually a sick flashback though. God the day like the art changes so jarring But you don't care about our universe winning Okay, we need to start tagging if it's not that much of like a time crunch No, there's no way you can keep up with them I guess you have to get up to a literal second in between if it's 10 times He was up to a fifth or up to half. Oh My god, let's see choppa space so bad brother.  Oh He shot back though. Oh, yeah, he don't stand a goddamn chance Gonna run right into him.  No, dude. What about Monaka? So consider me wrong. I didn't think Goku stood a goddamn chance against hit But like they said it's the entire Saiyan thing about powering up in the middle of battle But I have a lot of respect for hit the way he went about things and how he was like I'll let him get up because I want to have as good of a fight as we possibly can they said that's that's the Goku effect But this is a terrible place to stop so uh episode 40. Let's run it dog Even doesn't here. I'm just so sad. We don't get to see him fight the world strong the universe is strongest warrior And other weeks are just a broken like absolutely overpowered. It's gonna be whoever's standing. Oh, they're in space Wait is hit still How far to a whole second he had to it was kaioken times 10 because it was started at 110 So he had to go to a full second. They should just be sparring buddies. Oh, he he hurt Is this like a sign of respect It's cuz they respect each other He stole his line Dang dude, this is a fist bump Holy yeah, and he really did get that gain a hits respect What was doing like ninjutsu? Yeah, Goku's a ticking time bomb Coaching him. This is shameless. What is frost doing? Is he good? Yeah Not gonna run around. Oh My oh my They both looked at him is that learn your place cat I don't know when he the poo was okay, but he was the very first so it couldn't really start at the high Yeah, nobody else to chance against it even Vegeta. I don't think I love the effect of him like yeah skipping time It's so sick.  Nothing's impossible. I come on see super Yeah, but how many of those hits does he need It's okay. It didn't do the three anime replay So he's not down and out if he gets the trouble replay that that's shocked man What if they both knock out at the same time what if it plays into some joke that they both knock out at the same time I'm a knock is the last standing. I swear to God that I honestly that's probable They seem like a dead even match if he was able to take that kaio-ken coming home Yeah, I don't think either of them want to go down that way just training blows My killing Goku got some bloodlust. I mean what other rules are there that they can't use like equipment and stuff Do you want hit to be able to do more? Oh my god How does he know that hits holding back if he would use tools and stuff as an assassin Oh, no him fighting to kill.  He just has a couple kids and a wife at home. They can handle themselves Chapa's hype.  You're shameless. You changed the rules. You made that cage on on on Megetta's fight I call them shameless. I don't blame Beerus for being mad.   No shot. No way He's pointing at them. He's being like saying like we'll get there muscle strains That's everyone to goku Yes, let's go Piccolo knows. Oh my god. This is so hype.  We're going to Champa's universe. Oh My god, he's so glorious.  Come on.   I guess that he seems like he wants to just be a strong fighter Oh touching the king He is a gigachat. Holy I'm a fan Let me go home now. Oh, is it that you get a transport vessel? That's right.  You can feel it frost. I don't care.  All right. That is it for the end of the tournament my goodness Who would have thought that Monaco would step in and destroy hit absolutely Obliterate hit me. I did I believed in him all the way through but a solid tournament all around I don't think it drug out too long in any of the fights We got to learn a lot more about their universe and I guess some of the differences and whatnot aside from Goku fighting hit I think my favorite fight was actually Vegeta vs. Magetta I don't know why it's just something about the aesthetic of that fight with the robot and everything Which is really cool It was also another I guess form of like being pushed to your limits Especially when like the odds are stacked against you in terms of even the ring, but I guess now the grand Zeno is here And like I said, I've never seen beerus and Champa like scared of someone like that like they are the destroyer So maybe he's a destroyer from another universe guys that has been it for the tournament I hope you did enjoy drop a comment down below with your thoughts What is your favorite fight was your least favorite fight on a scale of 1 to 10 how giga-chat is Monaco I'm a fast sub if you're new and I'll catch you guys in the next one base base


I'm Major Brian Hugo, I'm the S-3 OSC, the Operations Officer for 1st Air Cavalry Brigade, and we're out here supporting Combined Resolve 17. We are here with our 18th Polish Mechanized Division partners who are composing the multinational division headquarters and we're going to give them a local area orientation of the battle space that they're about to plan a multinational division defense of here in the coming days. So we're giving them an aircraft orientation on the UH-60 Blackhawk and H-64 Apache before we give them an aerial tour of the box to help them visualize the battle space. The biggest part from my perspective of these joint multinational exercises is it gives our NATO partners exposure to one another and our best practices for preparing for the modern battlefield. Every country, every military has its own tradition and way of war and allows us to come together and share and pave a way forward for developing interoperability as part of the multinational headquarters.


It's super important and it will save you being disappointed in the long run. How's it going guys? My name's DPJ and if you do enjoy the video, leaving a like really helps out and if you like what you see and want to see more, be sure to subscribe. So Arcane Studios recommend that players go off to be in track, they explore, they do all the side quests, they do this and the other. But did you guys know there's actually, I mean this is a joke to me to be honest, because it's just, I just don't get it, my actual friend told me about this because he progressed the game to a point where he could not come back. Now this happens in many games, but not like in Redfall. So Redfall Commons is the first map, if you don't know and you're new to this game, there's actually two maps. There's a first map, the one you're probably on now at a fire station and then you progress on to the second map. Once you progress on to the second map, you cannot come back to the first map. Therefore, if you've missed looting something, if you see a guide on a video of something amazing on the first map, you can't come back. If there's a side quest which unlocks one of your favorite skins on the first map, you can't come back. It's absolutely crazy to me why this isn't a, why can you not, it's just, it's crazy to me guys, it's crazy, but it is actual the truth. So to avoid this, there's actually two points in the return, but to avoid this happening from first map to second map, you want to avoid doing the final mission of the main snow mission on Redfall Commons where you take on and fight the Hollow Man.  It is as simple as that, because as soon as that comes up guys, as soon as you progress the main story in the campaign to a point where you have to take on the Hollow Man, once you defeat him, you cannot guys, you cannot come back to Redfall Commons which is the first map. Again, Hollow Man if you don't know, if you're just new to the game, is a voice you will hear, you probably, if you've got subtitles on, you'll see it pop up at the bottom of your screen. Here's the main dude, the main character behind the first map of Redfall Commons. Again, as soon as this mission comes up which is a part of the main story quest line of taking on the Hollow Man, once you progress past this guys, you can't come back, you lose out on everything you missed from Redfall Commons. Now you can when you complete the game, I believe there's a new game plus where you start the game again with all your abilities, weapons and that but everything on the map has been reset. Yeah sure you can go through it but if you want to grab it on your first run, it'll be impossible to do so just keep that in mind. There's also a second point of no return and that is the Black Sun battle. Now late game players will know about this already but if you don't, now you do. Once you get to this point guys, it's a point of no return so yes keep that in mind too but because early days I think the message to get out there is to people that are still on the first map and if you want to explore loot and do all that good stuff on the first map just be wary of that main story campaign mission we have to take on the Hollow Man because hey again once you pass this you cannot return which is again it's just that is bizarre to me why the option ain't there hopefully it's something they add but we will see guys we will see so yes guys I hope the video helps you out before you make the mistake and hopefully guys I will see you on that next one


Hi, I'm S-Fan. I'm not a weeb. The world's famous rep paladin. And this... This is the best ever. I'm not a weeb! This is so... Come on. We're in! Ay-ya! Ay-ya! Wait, why is Final Fantasy VII in the background? This is not me. Dingle. I'm sweating bad. Your date starts in three, two, one, and speed date. Ah, my queen! I don't care what she says. I gotta play wow. My cue's about to pop. I'm addicted to forming parasocial relationships with female streamers on Twitch. Especially the Asian ones. I started as a lurker in their chats, but slowly worked my way up to moderator with a bunch of them. I dedicate 30% of my monthly earnings to these women through donations and gift assistance. No! In return, they give me countless hours of entertainment. No, I did that to match. They were matching subs. Anyway, so I have two questions. No! One, how do I take the next step to move this way? No, I did not type that. I want to fly to Korea to meet them in person, but I don't want to choose one in personal space or make them feel weird. I'm a nice guy. There's that term again. So they will not be in danger. And two, I know you cannot diagnose people on the internet. What condition would you say I am suffering from? No way. No! Dude, come on. Why is your motherboard so small? My motherboard is from a long time ago. Wait, what? You're using an old motherboard? Yeah. What? Okay. So you're building a new computer with an old motherboard? No, I am changing the case. You're changing the case? Mm-hmm. Which is kind of similar to, you know, building a new stuff, you know? Which is kind of similar to... Wait, why did you not just build a new computer altogether? Because I don't feel like it. I sent a reaction to Leak Poser's incognito Reddit account. I mean, I don't know about that. STP seems pretty bored of their man lately, and she's bad-mouthing on stream. I don't know if it was just because she knew I was in the chat and she said it, but it could be. Anyway, I gifted another 50 subs extra last night after doing my usual 100-dollar daily donation, and she was so appreciative that she stopped for like five seconds and asked me how I was doing.   It literally was, dude. Hi. I bought a cell phone two weeks ago, today's 14 days. I bought it because I do, like, I do, like, live streaming. Actually, my friend from Korea bought it. She bought it with my card, and it didn't work. The app that we use for, like, live streaming stuff doesn't work, I guess, on the version of the phone. I mean, she left. She's not, she's not, sorry. I got confused by something. She left, so she's no longer here in America, and now she's back in Korea. So it's 14 days. It's day 14, and can I not return the phone after 14 days? Okay. Because I, because I don't want to frick.  He followed Rich, and then Nicky afterwards. You know why? Yeah. Wait, wait, he followed Rich and then Nicky. Dude, Rich, it worked, dude. Those of you who don't know, Rich puts a picture of Nicky up on a screen for clickbait all the time on the thumbnail. So he wanted to get the actual, he was going right to the source. Like, every time I look at him, I'm just like, dude, this is, this is, this is Harry Potter. Like, look at him.  What does that even mean, Kia? Says Hagrid. Well, hey, so I should know, right? I'm the expert, aren't I? Like, dude. Like, if Aspen comes to Korea, he has to try this. Could you get his fans to eat that? Like, what? Like, is this worms? Should you get Aspen to eat that? Wouldn't it be so funny if Aspen actually eats this? It'll be so... And what is this? It says... It says... Is this sesame? Frick!  It's so... It's like, it's... There you go. It's so juvenile. Oh, God. Oh, God. Hold on. This is how you form Reddit comment. I'm not a big fan of streamers, but... Oh, okay. Well, now it just validated whatever I said. His name is E-Rob. And he does all kinds of funny stuff. I'll link his Twitch for you below. HTTP, colon slash slash, www.twitch.tv slash S-Fan TV. So, look, just like, gotta do something nice, dude. Like, E-Rob gets one nice thing that happens to him. He doesn't even get any credit for it. This actually is unbelievable, man. It's unbelievable. Okay, so... This chat is too fast. No one knows I have bulge. Okay, Ginny. Well, as soon as you type that, everybody stop typing. So... This old clip of Ginny. Leave you, Eric, with $3. Did you see this old video of Ginny? What is this? Pad Pad Fish. Okay. FC Soul apologizes for sex dolls and stands. Wait, what? No way. Is this real? BBC. They put sex dolls in the stands, so it looks like there's real people at the games. So many, so many people have asked, S-Fan, do you have your Outlast 2 VOD saved somewhere? I'm like, no. I don't have it. I'm so sorry. I wish I did. I think this VOD right here might be the one. Okay. It's loading. I'm gonna click in the middle. Let's see if this is it. It's a long stream.  Wait, this isn't it. Wait. Why the... Why? On so many levels, why? Why does this... Okay. Not easy clap. Why does... Why does this exist? Why? Why? What is happening? You guys even think of this stuff. Because she's a weeb. Why do you guys even think of this stuff, dude? I feel like you sleep, and then your chat just donates Africa TV stuff. Goobie Jam. Yeah, like... Stop it. Guys, what was that donut? That is just disgusting. Please, somebody... Yeah. Somebody send the link to me so I can blacklist it and nobody donates that to me. Just to make sure I put it in my media share to not get blacklisted. Not ever get it. You know what I mean? Please, unbelievable. For the love of God, please, someone send me that link. I'm joking. DM. I have an officer meeting in like 20 minutes, which means he's already in official meeting because he sends me this message at age 36 and then right now it's 9-6. So I think he's in the sex cult meeting.  Priorities. Look, I had a meeting. World of Warcraft. Aspen ditched me. Okay. You gotta answer. Wow. Okay. Oh, okay. They match. So if Aspen gifted 10 subs, others would also give me 10 subs, something like that. So that's the reason why you gifted 100 subs. I think Aspen loves me, chat. Why would you say that? It's real. I mean, it's a prize though. Oh, that's the meaning of match. Oh my gosh. She's the biggest shipper of them all. True. We're just friends. Nothing happened. Just beat it? No, that's not... That's not what... That just beat it was not playing because of this. Korea's behind the door. Why is this weird? Aspen comes to Korea. He has to try this.

This would be a nice world series Pretty sure major league baseball and the TV networks would love that Derek with the Marlins to with the Blue Jays Cory with the Cardinals Michael what the straws Chris with the angels Aaron with the Rangers Derrick with the Tigers Erin with the Red Sox Michael with the Phillies Erin with the Royals Michael with the Pirates Mathew with the Padres and twins Craig with the Reds Cory with the Cubs Aaron Pass it with the Chicago White Sox Michael with the Rays Craig with the Nats Chris with the A's Matthew with the Rockies Aaron with the Mets Michael with the O's Mike with the Michael F medley Orioles Mike G with the Giants Aaron with the Bru crew Michael with the Dyna Max 2 for the Indians Mat with the Mariners, Mike, with the ATL and the Braves. Let's get all this on one screen. Let's sort by column B. Let's box these up right here. There are the four boxes right there. Another four in the store right now, if you wanna get that going. Many trades, trade window open. Tice, what's going on? It hasn't been a bit, how are you, man? We can finish everything tonight. Go to jaspyscasebrakes.com. So much due and so much time. There is a late night tonight. All right, looks like no trades. So let's close up the trade window. Got a lot of Braves backed up already. So let's print and rip. Now that football's over, gotta really start getting into some hoops. Baseball, maybe even a little hockey. NASCAR, Daytona 500, soon this weekend? Is that this weekend already? I think it is, like Alex Bowman got the poll. Yeah, I think people are like, all right, enough series one. See some other stuff. It was fun though. I'm glad we got all of that done. And it didn't like kind of peter out and straggled. The momentum was strong, all the cases were sold so. Oh, I would love to find some NT NASCAR. That'd be great. No, I don't know where that is. Or if someone does have, it's probably not, probably not at a, probably at too much of a big price. On the 14th, nice. All right, so we got Adam Engel, Jonathan Davis and the autograph. Yes, it's an auto rookie, auto Nico Horner, nice. Corey with the Cubs. Could be a big part of the Cubs rebuild. Big part of their success too, if they do well this season. I think those Ken Gravey juniors, really all of these cards are pretty excellent. So whatever cards you get, it would probably be worth just looking up on eBay. I think when we were first doing these, those were like, I don't know, 15, 20 bucks a pot maybe more. The Ken Gravey junior goes to the M's, that'll be for Matthew Shearer. The green parallel of Robinson Cano, one out of 45, that's Yankees edition, going to Anthony. There's Randy Arroz-Irania.  That goes to the Reyes, that'll be for Michael. Maybe more if you get it graded, if it grades out nicely. So a lot of sneaky good value in the Sapphire. All right, next box, another four in the store, jaspyscasebrakes.com. Pretty quick break too. You know, a lot of big value for such a quick break. Arroz-Irania's still selling well, says Oliver, still fire, good, so there you go, Michael. Okay, it's still going for 150 to 175, Oliver's reporting. Nice, that is great. There's a Mike Trout, people like him, that goes to Chris and the Angels, just up the freeway are the Dodgers, that's Rookie Gavin Lux, people like Trent Grisham, he's a rookie in this set, Matthew with the Padres, we've got all sorts of things going on. Aristides Aquino, Craig McGinnis, hopefully we'll have a big season this year. And we've got an orange, Cesar Hernandez, five out of 25 for the Cleveland Indians, two with the tribe. And the autograph is Kyle Garlick. I think he's a former Dodger. Kyle Garlick, hmm, Garlick. Philadelphia, Michael. Yes, people like Trout Rex and Salmon and Carp too. I think some people have fond memories of Carp. All right, two more boxes. I like Paul, is Paulica, is there, is Paulica fish? Is Cobba fish? What about, what about Bass, Kevin Bass, Kevin Bass? I don't think of Kevin Moss. I don't think his last name's Tilapia, is it? The Rockies player? I wish his name was Tilapia. What's his name, Kevin though, Kevin Bass, an old Astro? Pollock is a fish, Corey says Alaskan Pollock is a fish. Yeah, I like Pollock. AJ Pollock. Is it really Tilapia? I thought it was just, I guess, yeah, man. All right, people like, ooh, look at this. Green, Randy Arozirania. Michael F, with the Bass version. And now the 34 out of 45, Randy Arozirania. We need him to go off this season. That'd be hashtag good for the hobby. It'll be worth even more. That looks nice. I might have to save that for picture time. So if the Bass versions are going for what, 150, close to 200, what does that one go for? And there's Randy Dobnek for the Twins. That will be for Matthew Shearer and the Twinkies. That's about 400 bucks. Is it Rhymel Tapia? That's what I thought. Yeah, I would love to see a trout salmon dual auto. Maybe in Ginter. Come on, Lakers, what are you guys doing? All right, and the next box, the final box. We've got another four box in the store. Remember, one spot gets you two teams. And this, ladies and gentlemen. Ooh, maybe Kevin Bass, Derek Fisher, dual astro autograph. There we go. Danny's saying I still had St. Louis. Oh, he had St. Louis in the mixer. Got a few R's Arrhenius. Just tossed him into a box, forgot about it.  I think I have that guy. He kind of came out of nowhere, but he looked great. I don't know if he keeps it going. Kyle Lewis, Mariners right up on top. That'll be for Matthew Shearer. We got a green Christian Yellich, all-star game card for Aaron Pettit, Brookroob. 23 out of 45. Nice green parallel. The atomic background is always cool too. This is Terence Gore. Jesus Lazardo, Alec Mills, and Shogo Akiyama. Rookie autograph for Craig and the Reds. Joey Vado and jump on six, right there, Nationals. And there you have it, boys and girls. That was 2020 Tops Chrome Update Baseball, Sapphire Edition, random team number six. Big thanks to everybody who got into the action. So much value in all this stuff. All card ship, one spot gets you two teams. A lot of good-looking parallels, color, big hits, everything. Go check it out, jaspyscasebreaks.com. I'm Joe, I'll see you next time for the next one. Bye-bye.


So, let's say we are considering submission and we are talking, okay, how do I practically do that? That could be the question, especially in a scenario where in a situation where you sense that the husband is doing everything according to scripture, but from a practical standpoint in the sense, let's say if the husband needs to, maybe it's something to do with buying something, some decision, maybe you want to move to a certain other place, relocate to some other place, relocate, so you're considering all those things. Let's say in an example like that, and well, as a wife, you feel that, well, it's, no, certain things have been overlooked, okay, so certain things have been completely overlooked by the husband. So in that case also, you know, do I submit? So that's the thing, right? Do I just blindly submit? Well, the answer is no.  So, the thing is not to blindly submit, you know, though your heart, in your heart, yes, you would, you're saying, okay, I'm not against this, I'm not against God's design, I will yield it, I will submit, but the thing is this, to suggest, right, to bring in counsel, counsel, to bring in wise counsel, to bring in, in the form of suggestions, and say, okay, have you considered this, let's consider this, we're going to look at this, maybe genuinely the husband did not, you know, consider those options, right, maybe just looking at, okay, maybe we need to relocate to another city, we need to do this, maybe, but probably there were other things that he did not consider at all, right. So, in you bringing up, as a wife, in you bringing up, saying, okay, why don't we look at this, why don't we consider this, or why don't we get somebody's opinion, you're doing the right thing, so maybe the husband didn't consider, and yeah, so that would actually turn the whole situation around, the husband would be able to look at these things, look at these options, and really weigh them before making the decision, okay, but what if, you know, a husband has considered all that, and then also you still feel, you know, you're not able to put a finger on it, but you still feel that something is not right, then, you know, what do you do, right, do I fight, do I not give in, do I make things difficult for my husband, but the right thing to do would be to submit, would be to yield, because you've, you know, you've done everything, like you've brought in the wisdom, you've brought in the information, you've brought in the counsel that is required, and after all that is considered, and you know, sufficiently answered, sufficiently dealt with, you're still saying, okay, you still feel a little, you know, uneasy about it, well, the husband's being very confident and saying, okay, we need to do it, the thing is to yield the matter, right, to God, and say, okay, God, you know, we've done this, give us the oneness of heart, give us the oneness of mind, right, I don't know what it is that is causing this difference, you know, they, you're not able to see, you know, be one in this particular thing, and it's a big thing. So, God, you know, you give us the oneness of heart, whatever it is, you know, give us that one, and I'm yielding this, I'm deferring this, you know, decision, I'm saying that, well, let the husband lead, I'm yielding, but God, you give us that oneness, there's anything that needs to be changed, Lord, you, we've done all we can, but you, she show us, right, so that would be the right thing to do, rather than fight and create a scene, and, you know, and act, and temper tantrums, and, you know, and endless arguments, this would be a way to do it, right, so this would, how it would work in, in real life, maybe in a, in a difficult situation like this, right, okay, well, we also see that for the husband and the wife, you know, and there are, if, if we, if we look at ministry, and if we look at the calling, especially, you know, since all of us are being trained for, to serve the Lord, right, in one way or the other, so we look at Paul writing to Timothy, and we can look at those passages where he's laying down, okay, how should a man of God be, how should a woman of God be, okay, so, so he, he's, we can consider those passages as well, and well, we, this applies to us as believers also, okay, not just as people who are serving, but it would, you know, specifically applies to those people who are serving, maybe in some capacity, or in leadership, in church, or desiring a position of leadership in church, it would certainly apply to them, for them specifically, but also, as believers, you know, generally it would apply to us also, so it's good to consider those passages, you know, we're talking about 1 Timothy 3, and we're also looking at Titus chapter 1, so these are passages and Titus chapter 2, where Paul writes about, okay, this is how, if someone desires a position of a bishop or a spiritual overseer, you know, he desires a good work, it's a good work, and then he talks about what are those qualifications, right, and he says he must be without fault, he must have only one wife, he must be sober, self-controlled, orderly, be hospitable, able to teach, should not be someone given to alcohol, but must be, or he should not be a violent person, but be gentle, peaceful, not be a lover of money, lover of things, material things, you know, all those things, right, so these are some things for us to, maybe you're considering the role of the husband, these are some things to consider also, and if you see the same passage, it also talks about the wife, it also talks about, you know, the children, and so on, if you, for example, if you look at Titus chapter 2, right, it says, okay, instruct the older men to be sober, sensible, self-controlled, and instruct the older women to behave as women who should live a holy life, they should not be slanderers, nor given to wine, and so on, so we see that, you know, that's, we can take that, add that also as the role of the husband, the role of the wife, okay, so from these passages, you know, in the notes, there is a column, you can look at that, you can go through that, it talks about character, it talks about being self-controlled, being sober-minded, etc., right, so those are some things that we can look at, okay, we're going to look at, you know, in the role of the husband and the wife, the fact is that where we see words as expression of love, we also see physical intimacy, the way God created marriage, the way God created man and woman, you know, in the context of marriage, for them to enjoy physical intimacy, okay, well sex has, you know, the objective is, of course, procreation, but it's also something to be enjoyed, okay, so that's how God created it. Now, when we look at the world outside, it talks about sex being enjoyed, being indulged in, in any context, right, before marriage or extra marital, you know, partners, so there's no limits, there's no boundaries there, the way the world would look at it, right, but the way God designed it primarily, it's within the context of marriage, in the context of allowing accountable, responsible, faithful relationship with one another, okay, so that's how God created it, so in that context, it is meant to be enjoyed, okay, for example, if you look at 1 Corinthians 7, Paul writes, you know, about sexual intimacy, right, about marriage, and in the context of marriage, right, we should understand that always, so he, so this is what he says, let's look at that message, it's there in your notes, I'm just going to read from Mother New King James version and then read in the message version also, so he says, in 1 Corinthians 7 verse 1, concerning the things of which you wrote to me, it is good for a man not to touch a woman, nevertheless, because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife and let each woman have her own husband, let the husband render to his wife the affection to her and likewise also the wife to her husband, so you see in this role of husband and wife, he's talking particularly, when he says, you know, let the husband render the affection due to his wife, he's talking about physical intimacy, right, so the thing is that there's nothing, because some people have this understanding that sex is sin, even within the context of marriage, something dirty, something that is shameful, something that is not to be indulged in, okay, we don't see that in scripture, and that's not God's design as well, right, so, you know, you see the extremes, right, and one extreme is like, everything is okay, you know, that's the, that's a world, that's a very satanic view of, you know, of God's design for sex, it's a total distortion of God's design for physical intimacy, total distortion of it, but the other thing is also, you know, sadly, even among believers, even in the church, you know, it's like, it is something shameful, it's not to be, it's not there, and it's not something to be discussed, et cetera, so it's something that we see that totally unbiblically, okay, so in the context of marriage, God designed marriage to be enjoyed between the husband and the wife, okay, so to, so we see this passage, 1 Corinthians 7, now I'm just, I just want to read from the, from the notes, we have the message version there, so we see, okay, now getting down to the questions you asked, you're in your letter to me first, you know, so which means that people have actually, if you study, when you study 1 Corinthians, you'll see that people have asked Paul a series of, you know, questions about marriage, about food offered idols, about, you know, a lot of things that they were having struggles with, you know, as a church or challenged as a church, so Paul is actually answering, addressing all those things, so one of the things he addresses here is about physical intimacy, about sex, okay, so he's saying that it is a good thing to have sexual, is it a good thing to have sexual relationship, you know, that's what you ask, because if you look at the Corinthian church, the society outside, it was a very permissive, promiscuous society, right, they had the temple, temple Aphrodite and, you know, all that kind of worship was happening, they were temple prostitutes and so on, so it was a very confusing, you know, message about sex, so now people have become believers, they've come to the church and, hey, what is the right thing, okay, the word, outside there is this whole thing of, you know, very promiscuity, promiscuity, you know, that's the thing, that's the thing that we've actually learned about sex, because that's what we've seen in the world and now we've come to, we've come to saving knowledge of Christ, we've come to church, now that's the same understanding that we are carrying, so is it right, is it wrong, right, so Paul is addressing that, right, so he's saying certainly verse two, but only within a certain context, it's good for a man to have a wife and for a woman to have a husband, sex drives, sexual drives are strong, but marriage is strong enough to contain them and provide for balanced and fulfilling sexual life in a world of sexual disorder, the marriage bed must be a place of mutuality, the husband seeking to satisfy the wife and the wife seeking to satisfy her husband, marriage is not a place to stand up for your rights, marriage is a decision to serve the other, whether in bed or out, abstaining from sex is permissible for a period of time if you both agree to it and if it's for the purpose of prayer and fasting and only for such times, then come back together again, Satan has an ingenious way of tempting us when we least expect it and then he says, I'm not, you know, you understand commanding these periods of abstinence, only providing my best counsel if you should choose them, so you see that it's very liberating actually, it's not confining, very liberating and the Lord is saying, okay within the context, the Lord's desire and will and plan is that within the context of the way he designed sex within the context of marriage, okay, so that understanding, the husband should have that understanding the wife should have or the husband to be should have, the wife to be should have, so if there is any, you know, anything that is you know, any understanding that we have, if you've been trained by the world, you know, to think about sex in this manner, we should drop it and get trained by scripture, get renewed, renew our understanding by the understanding or by the design that is in scripture, the truth that is in scripture, okay, so then one more thing is, you know, while we consider these roles, all these things come up, no challenges, okay, the woman needs to be like the problems 31 wife, you know, the wife needs to be then, you know, so many, so many times the, excuse me, there are messages, you know, preached and and the wife to be, you know, usually, you know, it's preached in the weddings, it's preached in engagements, problems 31, you know, everybody reads that and it's preached from that, this is how she must be and well, we don't know what really what's going on in the, you know, in the girl's mind, you know, wow, that's such a tall order, so many things to do, so many things to consider. If you look at it, you know, it's, it's, it has both sides to it, okay, one, it's a, it's a picture of a very healthy marriage, a very healthy family, okay, it's a picture of that and in, in that environment, in that setting, well, this is how the woman or the wife, this is how she's thriving, right, she is energetic, purposeful, and well, she's a visionary, all that, she's very industrious, we see all that happening there, but we also see the support, the appreciation that comes from the family, so many times, you know, we miss out on that, okay, why should be like this, why should be like this, you need to do this, but you see the husband role in that, you see the children's role in that, family's role in that, which means that, you know, as parents, how we relate to one another is, you know, for example, if, of course, we look at it in parenting, for example, if we see the, the father or the husband is going to be constantly being rude to his wife and putting her down, and saying that you don't know this, you don't know anything, so you just keep quiet, then that was the attitude the children will also carry, right, while the children might pity or take the, you know, cause of supporting and taking sides, all that might happen, but also when it comes to certain things, you know, they will put down and say, okay, you don't know anything, well, that'll be the attitude that they will carry also, but here we see something else, the children have a healthy attitude, a healthy relationship with the mother, right, okay, so let's just go through that, okay, this is a good news version, right, Proverbs 31, was telling how hard it is to find a capable wife, she's far more, she's worth far more than jewels, her husband puts his confidence in her, he will never be poor, as long as she lives, she makes him good and she doesn't good and never hum, she keeps herself busy making wool and elinth cloth, she brings home food from out of the way places as merchant ships do, she gets up before daylight to prepare food for her family and to tell her servant what women want to do, she looks at land and buys it and with money she has earned, she plans a vineyard, she's a hard worker, strong in industries, she knows the value of everything she makes and works late into the night, she spins her own thread and weaves her own cloth and she's generous to the poor and needy, she doesn't worry when it snows because the family has warm clothing, she makes bedspreads and wears clothes of fine purple in and wow, right, and her husband is well known, one of the leading citizens, she makes clothes and belts and sells them to merchants, she's strong and respected and not afraid of the future, she speaks with a gentle wisdom, she's always busy and looks after her family's needs, her children show their appreciation and her husband praises her, he says many women are good wives but you are the best of them all, charm is deceptive and beauty disappearing but a woman who honors the Lord should be praised, give her credit for all that she does, she deserves the respect of everyone, okay so when we read through, yes it is a, it is a, it is kind, it seems kind of you know it's amazing, it's an overwhelming list, there's a lot of things that the Proibs 31, wife or the Proibs 31 woman does but you also see you know in there, this is what the husband says, you know husband does, it says her husband right at the beginning you know her husband puts his confidence in her and he will never be poor, okay we see that verse 11, he puts his confidence in her which means he trusts her and he honors her and he says okay I'm confident about you know who you are and what you do, husband puts you know so which means that that confidence you know this whole act of nourishing and cherishing is in place right and he is, he puts the confidence, he's empowered the wife to release her to be all that she is, that she needs to be and we also see something else there, her children show their appreciation, okay now the children need to be taught, you know like we read that passage today you know Deuteronomy 6 now, children learn when we, when we diligently teach them but children also learn, pick up based on you know how things are in the home right, they don't have to be taught but they just pick it up, hey this is how somebody's behaving, well if somebody loses their temper they shout and so if I, you know if I need, if I want, if I want things to be done then I will also, I also need to shout, if I am angry you know somebody's throwing stuff so I can also do that, if I am angry let me also throw some stuff and make some noise and children learn right, so here the children have learned to show appreciation whether by teaching, saying that way you need to appreciate, you know we're eating something have you thanked, have you thanked your mother, have you thanked you know whoever has prepared the food, you know it could be someone helping in the house, you know but have you thanked, have you said thank you, well you like it, okay why don't you tell them right, so the children learn to show appreciation, so it says here that her children show their appreciation and her husband praises her, wow so that's also the other side, has the husband praised, you know so it's not a one time thing, it's a, it's a culture in the home, it's something of a value in the home and it's a normal thing in the home where one observes, one appreciates and expresses that appreciation as a praise, as a compliment, right and it says husband praises her which means that husband is saying wow you're looking good today, you know this suits you and what you prepared for the guests, brilliant, wonderful, husband is praising, complimenting and the children are learning that and the children are appreciating and husband is telling the children you know why don't you tell mom that you know she did this, so why don't you just tell her, so you know he's also complimenting, he's you know when compared to the other women, he's complimenting, so we see that one of the important things that we need to learn is that you know as husbands we need to learn that okay if I want my wife to be the problem 31 wife then I need to be the problem 31, husband as well, right it goes both ways, right it's not a one-sided thing, okay so this you know we see that it's very very liberating the roles and you know to understand the roles and expectations and responsibilities of the husband and the wife is a very foundational thing for one's marriage, it's a very fundamental thing and it's very important for one's marriage right needs to be prepared so this will actually create so much goodwill and it'll really create so much harmony in the house and this is God's design, you see this is God's design this is how he is, he wants the home to be okay now I'm just looking at this application section if you want to go there and this when it comes to communication when it comes to you know appreciating when it comes to honoring you know we saw that okay the husband needs to love husband needs to communicate share and show that the wife also you know needs to love the husband we respect the husband appreciate honor etc so now what would really help is to understand what is the language that my wife understands what is the language that my husband understands okay so we're not talking about language like English or French or Spanish whatever but really we could be speaking the same language we could be communicating the same language but not being understood okay why is that because the as human beings you know we respond in different ways or we show appreciation appreciation in different ways or we receive appreciation in different ways right for someone mere words right when you say it words they feel love they feel appreciated for someone else it is an act of service in the sense okay I you know why don't you sit down let me just serve you some food and that for that person is you know they feel appreciated they feel loved for someone it's it's just physical touch you know it's when when I'm saying physical touch you know it's just putting an arm around or just holding the hand of the person or being physical proximity with that person they feel loved they feel appreciated for someone else it's gifts it need not be something fancy something expensive but something small it means that oh this person thought of me right my husband thought of me my wife thought of me and got this for me or made this for me and I feel appreciated and loved okay for someone else it could be just quality time spending time with another saying okay let's just you know we don't have to do anything we don't have to go on a major vacation but just spending time with one another you know the person feels loved so the thing is you know we see that Dr Gary Chapman he's written a book on five love languages maybe you you some of you might have already left a little bit and maybe you have an understanding of it so just to reiterate that you know this is how people could express love you know these are five there could be more and it could be in shades of you know it could be a mix of this right so these are normally people express love and also receive love okay and most most often the way they express love is also the way they receive it okay so so you find out that okay in what way now with you know when it comes to we need to know the wife and know the husband this is something for us to learn and know okay um okay this is how this person responds and or this is how the person expresses love so so they just imagine like if I don't have an understanding of it okay so so many times the husband will say you know I just you know so many times you know I have I have I have you know expressed my affection my love but my wife just not understand at all and my wife does not reciprocate out and the wife might have the same complaint saying okay my husband does not love me okay and so many times I have said you know I have taken the initiative to say that or express and demonstrate my love for him he does not and a and a classic case could be well let's say for example the husband for the husband it is act of service okay so which means that um if for the husband a cup of coffee is made in the morning he feels loved okay he feels appreciated whereas for the wife she feels appreciated if the husband communicates if the husband says it saying oh you are this you are that and I was in her maybe his husband rides a you know a small note and sticks it you know in the bathroom mirror and then she goes inside and she's surprised oh wow my husband loves me so let's say if this is their love language but they don't have an understanding of it so the wife feels that you know I'm saying so many times I love him you know I'm putting all these notes in his bag and the same but you know in his wallet I'm surprised him with these I tell him with my words and yet he's saying that he doesn't feel love but the fact is this the husband feels love when there is a you know act of service you know you do something for him or you serve you know food or you bring him a cup of coffee and and that's it you don't have to put 100 notes he just feels love and for the wife you know he's he's been he's been you know doing this he's been maybe you know act of service he's been folding all the clothes and putting it away getting her clothes ironed and putting it away doing the dishes and you know and these feels like doesn't she know that I love her it's because that I love her that I'm doing all this but she does not right so there's there seems to be a major miscommunication but once they understand that this is how the husband communicates his love for him it is this and the husband learns oh I say okay then this is how she feels loved you know when I say it in words okay I'm not good at saying it in words I'm good at just doing this stuff you know I bring this I keep the house clean maybe I clean up this stuff I fix things you know I fix the tap I fix the you know and I'm showing her that I love her maybe I need to put things into words it's it's gonna be tough for me I'm not good at words but I'm gonna learn I want to do it so when the husband does that or when the wife says okay maybe I should just do this oh these are simple things I can do it so when when both learn each other's language of love and express you know affection love appreciation in these ways then the marriage you know thrives flourishes then you understand that wow this is my wife truly loves me however husband says you know the wife says the husband truly loves me because he's doing this right so this is the thing it has a you know in the notes after this application section you know it has a very reflective thing so it's in a combination as well so you know combination of one or more love languages it's good to go through just to open up our understanding oh these are ways by which the husband could feel loved or the wife would my wife would feel loved my husband would feel loved and and the best thing is to you know both you know we do the marriage preparation course we normally you know there's an exercise that we do for the husband to be and the wife to be right so that they can actually sit and write and then they can it's it's it's an eye opener right for both of them wow this is it I never thought about this but then this is how you feel love wonderful right so so all this you can just go through that any questions any questions here anything that you might want to share no questions okay so how many of you have actually you know you can just put your hands up how many of you have actually you know you know about this love languages um you've read the book or you've heard it somewhere okay hey John Paul yes he did the marriage course okay Zalit Ali and Eater okay okay so for some of us it's a new thing right so it's good if we get a understanding of it not just an understanding of it but also in preparation if you're single and you're preparing um to to say okay this is something that I can actually uh so now that I know it why don't I you know express demonstrate love in this way for those of us who are married you know maybe we need to find out okay what is it at my spouse you know how does he or she um receive love and express love and uh and then do that right okay fine so we'll we'll move on to um to the next chapter which is attitude temperament and behavior we'll just you know we'll go through it a little bit and then and then we'll probably continue on the next class right so it's about attitudes about temperament and behavior right so yeah so can I just say one just small center sure sure go ahead please there's also an online test to find out which language belong to us okay okay it's also you have the link for that yeah you can put it on the on the sing the class work not the class work sorry you could put in the stream itself and that's the helpful yeah you could put it on the stream okay okay great right oh for us yeah so maybe yeah that's a good important point right so for us to know ourselves maybe we don't know um yeah so that that would be helpful um thanks thanks john okay so so you see that uh you know as important as languages to communicate to one another uh you know this this is really uh this is a big thing okay one is understanding the role and the second one of course knowing uh how to communicate in that role and uh so that the person feels appreciated uh honor etc no we're talking about all this uh but how do I actually do it it's when we understand um how the person you know your spouse responds um and how the person understands the expression of love right okay so um so we're looking at chapter five and we're seeing that you know as one of the things that we we see is that a marriage is it's a journey right it's a lifelong journey okay which means it's a it's a fairly long time right uh and what we see and uh you know in movies or uh it's uh it's a very short span and which it's try to compress and you know um and it's it's just one part of the picture it's not the whole um reality is something else and you know it's something totally totally different and it requires a whole lot of us you know putting it to action uh changing our minds sacrifice a lot of things uh you know shifts in our attitude everything so um so that's important to consider so so we're going to look at this chapter which talks about you know our my attitude okay even before I expect the attitude from my spouse what should he or she how should he or she be you know you talk about ideas what what is the right attitude um you know what is the right temperament and can I make changes to it right can I make adjustments to it right um in in different things right so we might we might actually do certain things or we might do the right things okay for example I might say okay am I not taking care of the needs right am I not fulfilling my responsibility am I not uh you know uh doing what is expected okay now this is what scripture says I'm doing it um um but to see that oh to consider what is my attitude when I'm actually doing this carrying this out okay so which means when I how do I think how do I perceive how do I communicate right it's very very important okay so uh what is my attitude what is my uh my what is temperamentally how how am I you know in in this relationship how am I doing these things because you know I could have great abilities I could have great competencies intellectually academically but the fact is that if my attitude if my temperament is not right uh it will show forth in the behavior and even though I might be doing you know uh all those things you know what is required but my attitude actually denies it right the my temperament denies it and uh it actually colors my behavior okay so that's the thing we need to understand okay so let's say we have a different attitude if I I mean when I'm saying I colors the behavior I'm talking about attitude being negative right so if we um you know so we when we consider marriage we have the husband we have the wife and you know two people with very different temperaments right very very different maybe attitudes even and our behavior and everything is different so so the thing is that it it brings a lot of challenges it also you know makes life enjoyable because it's interesting the person is so different but it also brings um challenges to the relationship right so we need to understand that okay what are the um you know what are the two things two main things one is you know personally okay now the way I think where I perceive things the way I act the way I communicate okay unless this is healthy um it is not going to contribute to the marriage it's not going to help the marriage so it needs to be healthy first of all okay secondly you know that um I need to understand my spouse which means I need to understand you know what my wife what my house how my spouse thinks perceives acts communicates in different situations so that I understand her correctly so which means it you know I what I perceive what I think and what what she perceives or he perceives things acts communicates right um if I understand that then it helps us in our interpersonal relationship okay so if our attitude is healthy and positive then it would be it will cause the relationship to thrive flourish if it's negative with negative emotions um then it is not really going to help it is going to it is going to be detrimental okay so I need to have this I need to address this um well this may not have come into focus right and as a believer yes definitely you know God is teaching us we are being yielded to the Holy Spirit and and we don't live in isolation right we live with as a body of Christ so we are there are certain things which which which have been tempered by the Holy Spirit there are certain things that have been seasoned by the Holy Spirit and then we've undergone change um so um we've gone we're undergone change right but maybe you know we did not there were certain things that we are carrying and uh it is not really a Christ-like attitude right it's not really a Christ-like temperament so well that is going to be detrimental to them to the marriage maybe we need to understand that okay so how can I have a Christ-like attitude um first of all you know we uh first of all to understand that we must thrive or we must pursue Christ-likeness in our personal lives right we must pursue as individuals we must must pursue Christ-likeness that's a given now it's it seems like a repetition but it's really foundational okay let's look at uh Ephesians 4 and okay Ephesians 4 verse 13 okay it talks about the five fold and why the five fold is there in the in the body verse 12 talks about for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry for the edifying of the body of Christ till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God to a perfect man to a to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ so we see that it's it's a normal thing to to pursue this or to come to this right and it is something that God has Christ is placed in the body the five fold ministry and uh for the equipping as we live a the normal Christian life or pursuing Christ or being a disciple of Christ now this is something that is expected right this is something which means this is something that we can pursue wholeheartedly what is that like to be equipped for the work of ministry right which causes the edifying of the body of Christ still to come to the unity of the faith and to come to the knowledge and and the knowledge of the Son of God to a perfect man or a mature person right and to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ so how would Christ be right what is Christ like to come to that stature so in in our walk in our attitude in how we you know we we know that this you know when it comes to ministry when it comes to you know our personal lives and so on you know maybe maybe we have a certain understanding of that but then we need to know that okay in marriage in you know maybe as a parent this applies as well okay so this applies so we call to have the same mind of Christ when it comes to this right Philippians 2 talks about that right don't do anything from selfish ambition or from a desire to be boastful to be boast or I'm sorry desire to boast but to be humble towards one another considering others better than yourselves now many times we apply this in with everyone else every other you know believer you know maybe if you're in ministry with every other church member but when it comes to the home you know to consider each other better than themselves not to consider the other better than oneself and not to have a selfish ambition not to you know to boast and and to put oneself above you know to be prideful and not to humble oneself you know in the home is it a reality right so that's that's that's a difficult thing right because because in the home what happens is in the home setting right we we let down you know we could have put on an act outside or we could we could have put on a mask outside but in the home all defences are down and we're not putting on something for others we are being ourselves so when it comes to being ourselves this is what Christ desires this is what God desires that we be Christ like not just outside when people can maybe say some things people can you know maybe you know where we are careful about our image but within the four walls of the home where we need to be Christ like very important right so so the thing is this when we consider our attitudes when we consider okay am I being Christ like think about the home think about the place where you don't have to put on an act right where you don't have to like put on a mask or where you don't have where you don't have to constantly think am I saying the right thing am I doing the right thing in the home with your spouse with your children right how are you are you being Christ like now that's a very important because if we are in the home if you are being Christ like then it'll be you know it'll just flow out when we go out and we do it whether people are watching or not watching you know we will be but then in the home when you know our friends are not watching when our boss is not watching when our pastor is not watching you know we we let loose right we cut loose we actually put on display our worst self rather than being Christ like okay so that is something very very important okay so we'll continue this in our you know next class but just think about this right okay so we'll stop here and we'll take a break and come back for the next class thank you


In the 1980s, the neuroscientist Benjamin Lebed conducted a study that shook the very foundations of what we understand about free will. Lebed wanted to find out whether our mind prepares for a movement before we are consciously aware of it, and so he and his team set up an experiment. Participants in the study were asked to flex their wrists whenever they felt the urge to do so. While doing so, Lebed monitored their brain activity, EEG, through electrodes placed on their heads and found activity before the people decided to move their hands. In other words, the brain started the process way before the person decided to do it. When we plot a graph measuring time and brain activity, known as readiness potential, the movement started at time zero. Participants reported being aware of their decision 150 milliseconds earlier, but the brain actually began to act 500 milliseconds before the move. It didn't take long before psychologists and philosophers from all over the world discussed Lebed's research and wondered if our brain initiates a decision before we're consciously aware of it, then how free are our decisions really? And ever since, teams of scientists have tried to replicate Lebed's findings with mixed conclusions. Lebed himself did not interpret his experiment as evidence that our decisions are predetermined. He said the tendency to press a button may be building up for 500 milliseconds, but the conscious mind retains the right to veto any action at the last moment. What are your thoughts? And if our brain has already started the process of making a decision before we're consciously aware of it, to what extent are we truly in control? And if we are not, how would this influence our understanding of personal responsibility for our actions?


Welcome back once again to Japan. If you didn't see the other episodes from this trip, you can find them on the channel. Today we're exploring all over Kyoto and Osaka, as well as going to Universal to see the Nintendo world. How it happened, but we found the best video game store in Japan, at least that we've seen, but we'll get to that. It's a beautiful morning in Kyoto, and Kim and I are ready for a full day of game hunting around Kyoto. The first place is a store called Ed On.  The first thing we saw was a gaming chair, like a theater chair.  It's like $13,000 and I wish this would fit in my suitcase. Chameleon and then Charizard. Yeah, I always get those confused. Oh, hello and welcome back to Pokemon TV, sponsored by the Pokemon Company International. I'm Carl and I'm just happy to be here. We've seen wood enjoying a lot of Japan so far, but along with that, experiencing a lot of exciting Pokemon adventures. Oh, that's right, Carl. So we've seen him head to Tokyo's Pokemon Center, try his luck on some Pokemon gotchas, all the while playing Pokemon Go on the go. That's right, happy to be here. Gotta catch them all, am I right? Well, thankfully for our viewers, here I gotta travel all the way to Japan to enjoy Pokemon. Oh, that's right again, Carl. They can pick up a copy of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet for Nintendo Switch on their console and catch Battle and Train Pokemon in the Paldaea region anywhere in the world. Oh, and don't forget that new DLC, Hidden Treasures of Area Zero, part one, the Teal Mask, which gives players even more of the world to explore. Yeah, no, 100%. Does that DLC also work on the Switch? Yes, yeah, of course. Yeah. Oh, great. I mean, what would be the alternative to that? No, I'm saying like, if it didn't work on the Switch with the base game, what would the alternative be to... From October 27th and November 1st, players can participate in special five-star Miss Magia's Tier Raids, plus the special Halloween Outbreak featuring four special Pokemon, Mimikyu, Phantom, Driflood, and Gravaj. And there will be even more high-level terror raids happening throughout the year. So make sure you train your Pokemon to get strong for these battles. Click the link below to learn more about the seven-star terror raids plus the new DLC today. Now, let's get back to Waman in Japan. This has been Pokemon TV, and we'll see you next time. Seriously, like the Wii U? Where did you think it was going to work? You think my name is happy to be here? I don't want to hear it from you. I thought you were. Really? So it's Charizard, then Charizard, Charmeleon? Charizard. Charmander's first. What? It's not. You work at Pokemon TV. I know I said this already, but I can't get over the Nintendo Switch section in all of these stores because they all go so hard with it. For one, they go all out on the Nintendo area. It's just fully decorated. It goes all the way back there to all the way over here. But not only do they have new games, they have a ton of used games to look through. This is so cool. I do see this one that looks awesome. The art style is fantastic, but it's sold out. I don't know what happened to this store. It's been ravaged. Everything I'd like to buy is sold out. This looks awesome. I don't even know what it is, but the artwork on it is so cool. And I've been meaning to buy Coffee Talk for a while. I mean, I can look somewhere else, but so many things here are sold out. I see No Place for Bravery. It's a pixel art game that I have heard of, but it just didn't get a physical release outside of Japan. Maglem Lord, under 10 bucks. I don't know what it is. I'm not even sure if I'll like it, but I think I'm just gonna grab it and take a gamble on it. Something else that's only about $8. YouTuber Life 2. We happened to make a Let's Play video of the first one on the channel a while back, and it did surprisingly well. So when the second game came out, we made a video of that too. They're actually not too bad either. Strangely fleshed out, decent games. I have seen these on the trip so far. The Hori Split Pad Fit. Here there's a bunch of colors, including Pikachu and Gengar, but there are these clear evolution ones. I'm not 100% sure if you can get these in America or not. I'm trying to buy only Japan things here. I'm gonna get them anyway because they're cool. After I bought my games, Kim and I spent a while in this store looking at the toys, the figures, doing a bunch of gotchas. Kim's also obsessed with these little animal critter things. I kind of want this, because it's just really cute. I tried once again to get my corn Kirby, and I failed again. I can't get this guy. After we leave Eddon, we head over to Shinkaiogoku. There's a shopping street over there that has a pig cafe. We're not going to that. We're just walking down the street to see what they have, and what they have is more gotchas. There was this really cool, full Pokemon one. There's a Volpix, Bulbasaur, Diglett, the Teddy, Teddy sore, and a Pikachu. You know, I talk about Eevee a lot. I think Bulpix is my second favorite Pokemon, and I wanted this because it's adorable. We got all of them. Let's go. Around the corner from this street is a bookoff. So this is Bookoff Plus in Kyoto. We love bookoffs. The best comparison is it's like half-price books. If it had anime and figures and manga and video game, this whole aisle is switched. I don't have anything that I haven't already found, but I kind of want to buy some anime figures because they have a gone in Killua, the cheapest I've seen them on this trip. I feel like they've been taunting me this whole trip, so I'm just going to go ahead and grab them here. Immediately as we walk in the video game section, Eevee finds a boxed Tetris for like $3. I found Yokai Watch One on the Switch, but it was some weird, like greatest hits, level five, the best edition. I might be silly and find out that this was the only version of this, but I didn't like the way the box looked. I'm grabbing my Hunter figures. I'm grabbing some video games, and we're getting out of Bookoff because we have a lot of places to visit. And the next one is a bit of a walk away. It's called Surugaya. As far as I can tell, it's a new and used video game store. This store felt like walking into a mom and pop video game store. The prices reflected that.  Some of the collectible things were really expensive, and then some of them were really affordable. This is one of the amiibos I've been trying to find, the Japanese exclusive, and apparently it's very Japanese expensive. Peyton K-DOS 2, it's only 32,000 yen here. There's also Pikmin for 1800 yen, which is about 10 bucks. I did find Gacha Force on GameCube for 72,000 yen, which is about 50 bucks. Did not expect to become a GameCube collector on this trip. I'm down for anything that doesn't look like a visual novel because I could pull a random game out of here and chances are it's a visual novel. So I just found this one called Giraffe and Annika, which looks like a farming game with some battling in it. 2000 yen is about $12. It looks pretty enough to go on the shelf at the very least. And I found another cheap Switch game here for 1800 yen. It looks like a spooky kind of horror game maybe, but also very cutesy. I can't really tell what game it is. I'll find out when I play it. Obviously really glad that we walked so far out of our way to find this store. It was really worth it and definitely somewhere that I'll revisit when I go back. Now we're walking another 20 minutes actually to get to a Pokemon Center. This is Kyoto's Pokemon Center. This one had the three starter Pokemon and a nice little model near the back of the store. It also had a giant ho-o that had been signed on the back by Pokemon's creator and also a giant Lugia. Oh, I saw like a really cute flock Detective Pikachu. They also had a ton of stuff to buy to plushies merch, you name it. But again, every Pokemon Center we go to got a crazy line that I'm not willing to wait in. So instead, why don't we just book off to another book off? And again, another giant wall of Nintendo Switch games for me to go through. I even found a Japanese arc for the Switch. I would not expect to see a physical of that game here. It just doesn't seem like a game that I feel like Japan would be interested in. I've convinced Bob to try Yo-Kai Watch 4. They have the base version here for 1800. So I'm gonna grab that for him as a little gift. He had told me that he liked the idea of me playing Yo-Kai Watch 4 and kind of learning Japanese that way and said, if you find the base version, buy that for me. Next, I found Eastwood. This game got a physical in Japan long before I got a physical in America. And I actually imported it for a video I made where I spent a bunch of money buying things from Play Asia. I also actually wasn't sure I had bought it and I had to watch my video back in the store. Couldn't remember if I had that or not. I checked my video, I do. We are almost done with this massive day of video game hunting, but we stumbled into a mall and didn't expect to find Gacha Machine Heaven. Kim really wanted this kangaroo cutting onions with a little baby Joey in his pouch. The Joey was wearing goggles to protect his eyes from the onions. There was a Back to the Future one that had four different kinds of DeLorean's so obviously I had to get at least one of those. After going through all these Gachas for a long time, we decided we should probably head to bed because we have to be up early to Universal Studios. As we walked into the park, we saw the giant rotating Universal Studios globe. We were there as they opened and there was already a massive line and after finally entering the park, the very first thing we see is a popcorn vendor. We've been in here maybe five seconds and we saw Mario Popcorn but there's a Mario Kart popcorn tub so I'm waiting for that. Okay, this is awesome. Why is this a race? Oh my God. Oh, you got caramel too? Oh yeah. Let's go. Oh, it's actually good too. We just got here and now we have too much stuff to carry. Mario had bled through the rest of the park. We're in the gift store at Universal for Mario and they have so many cool things, so many snack boxes that are designed to look like hearts of the Mario universe. Hear me out. Do you think I now look like I belong here? Yeah, it looks like it wants to be Mickey is. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. It is really cool to walk around Universal and see how much Nintendo is represented all around the theme park. I didn't expect that. There was a giant stage where DJ Pikachu was breaking it down funky style. Pikachu, Pikachu, Pikachu. There's so much Nintendo around this park. It may as well be Universal and Nintendo's theme park but now it's our time to go into the Super Nintendo World. It's cool just walking up the trail to get there. They have arrows and it's the arrows from Super Mario World. High scores on the ground as you're walking around. Not really sure what those mean. Someone smarter than me will probably leave it in the comments section. We just got into Nintendo World and we're waiting in the line to get our bracelet, wristband that'll let us interact with the rest of the park. So we just got our bands. I got Luigi, Kim Goh, Yoshi to let us interact with the whole park. All right, now I look like I'm the doc from Back to the Future. I can't explain what it's like to walk into Super Nintendo World. As you start walking through the tunnel, there's all these LED lights above you. As you pop out of the tunnel, you're inside Peach's castle. It looks just like you're inside Mario 64.  I don't think I can explain it any better than what you're seeing other than imagine actually standing in the middle of this. You're inside the Mushroom Kingdom. It feels like you're there. I got chills like for real. This is crazy. We all just stepped out, just straight into all of this and it is by far the coolest part of the entire park. I guess not even close. It is insane how big it is. I'm not even that big of a Mario guy. You guys know this. But even I was transformed into a Mario fan for the day. I felt a wave of nostalgia still growing up with the NES Mario's and really loving them, of course. Now being here and standing in the Mushroom Kingdom, I felt overwhelmed. E was basically in tears. Kim was absolutely speechless. They did such a great job. We didn't have too long to explore the park before we had the joy of walking in to Bowser's castle. This is actually the start of the line, the Mario cart ride. It is literally like a 10 minute walk inside Bowser's castle. Each section of it, more detailed than the last. Then it opens up again into some sort of library with figures and statues hidden in every corner. We walked through some furnace area where it's like a workshop where they build the bomb arms and the bullet bills. They gave us this Mario visor to put on our heads. And then there were loads of these screens and it looked like you were in the Mario Kart TV. That then opened up into a room where all of the players were standing in this dome area and they showed an instructional video on how to play the ride. Now the ride is really cool. You sit in a Mario Kart that has four seats so you can play with three other people. You clip a visor into the band that they give you and the visor has a screen in front of it that see through, you see augmented reality. So it looks like you're in Mario Kart because you can see other Mario Karts in the visor. It'll tell you you need to go left or right and if you as a team all steer in the right direction you'll get more coins and more shells and then you can use the buttons on the steering wheel to fire those shells and the more enemies you hit and the better you do play in the game, the more coins you get, you win the game. Try to record it on my phone as best I could. Again, you can't see anything that's actually happening though because it was all happening right in front of my eyes. But you get a general idea of what the ride feels and looks like. After you get off the ride it opened up into a really cool Mario Kart gift shop. I bought a Universal Studios Mario Kart trophy because I had to. We won the ride, I deserved my trophy. That was pretty much everything we did. Immediately after the Mario Kart ride we went down and tried to eat at Toad's Cafe because we were really hungry and the wait time was 19 minutes. This was technically our last day in Japan.  We caught a train straight to Nintendo Osaka and this one was pretty much the same as the Tokyo store. The one thing I really wanted is they had a Zelda mug. It was the face of like nine Koroks on this nice green mug. Sadly, they were sold out and that was the only thing I really wanted. There's also a Pokemon center attached to this Nintendo store. But it's the same stuff again.  So, since we've already done Nintendo and Pokemon we're gonna get out of here up north completely out of the way is another Surugaia. Just like last time. I wanna also say it was a 20 minute walk to get there and it was a beautiful walk. We walked past a fun Lego store but also just some really nice areas. We walk into this mall and go up to the escalator. Yesterday, Kim and I found a really cool specialty store with a bunch of games and there's another one here in Osaka. And look at this place. It is crazy. I can already tell this is huge. All right, I'm gonna find the Switch game. We're gonna find the Switch games now, bye. They have boxed Game Boy color games here like Zelda, Mega Man. We've been in this store for like five minutes. It's amazing. It's like a whole collection of boxed Game Boy dance here. Five boxed mother games. There's like a whole wall of boxed game and watches. I'm literally sweating and not because of the heat anymore. Oh my God, that's only 5,000. The condition of all of them is so nice. Everything individually wrapped. So I don't know much about the Wonder Swan handheld that was only released in Japan, but I do know that finding an entire section of pristine boxed Wonder Swan games is insane. Hunter Hunter is my favorite anime. They didn't make any games for it, but apparently they did on Wonder Swan.  This has the most of anything that we've seen so far. At this point, I'm down and just look through the whole store. I just found my favorite kind of fantasy game for less than $1. My brain's breaking a little. We're in a dollar section. That's not less than a dollar. Wait, what? Are these broken? Are they missing disks? There were a ton of loose GameCube disks. Those were only a dollar. Then a 64 section with Hey You Pikachu, Mario Party 3. These were all 70 cents as well. I want to say I'm well aware that these games are probably only worth this price or that something up here says all broken. It sounds like these don't work. But I'm looking at all the disks and they have barely any scratches. The carts look fine. It would be fun to get these home and see if they are broken. Maybe they think they are. Maybe I can do something with them. Also, you know, the store has a lot of stuff when even the 360 section is pretty big. They do not really have Xbox games here. And by here, I mean Japan, not here because here apparently they do. They had a whole wall with boxed Super Famicom games. Then I got stuck in their GameCube section. I'm losing my mind. The store is awesome. There's so much GameCube. I'm only just not realizing this because I saw this. This is Rune 2. I can tell by the cover art is actually Lost Kingdoms 2 which is one of my favorite childhood GameCube games. I don't know why it's like this though but they have Rune 1 which is Lost Kingdoms 1. And it's also only like five bucks. It's one of my all time favorites. I don't know anyone else that loves them the way that I do. It was a card based JRPG. Apparently in Japan they were called Rune. I didn't know that until I saw this. I didn't want to buy this disc thing though because I really didn't know what I was looking at. I'm learning and discovering things in this store because I've just never seen this stuff before. Jungle beat is about two bucks. Hi. I don't know if I have this. Am I? I don't remember seeing it so. I don't know. Oh, there it is. This store has like everything. It has like every game. Both Rune 1 and Rune 2 right here in this store. I found the original bait and kados for only 1,000 yen as well as Super Mario Sunshine for the same price. Kim found a boxed Yoshi's Story for 1,300 yen. They had Biohazard for 600 yen. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles for two dollars.  This whole thing's only like five dollars. This is gonna be the biggest purchase I make in Japan ever. There's Pokemon Stadium too for like $15. I'm not going to get that. There's Donkey Kong 64 for like five dollars. What I am getting is the stack of GameCube, Paper Mario, Mario Party 3. They also have this, but it's more. Oh, what is that? Mario Kong 64. Yeah, it comes with a controller. With a controller? Yeah. At this point, I had messaged everyone that we were with earlier in the day because they'd stayed in the park when we left and I told them you guys have to come and get some of this.  They have a plushie section, aisles and aisles of anime figures. They have miscellaneous sections with cool collectibles from all the cafes around Japan and got your machines and Nintendo stores and Pokemon stores. They had a whole wall of bins where everything in them was only a dollar or two. Oh, oh hi. You didn't tell me. I told, I showed you as much as I could. Everything's so cheap. I did tell you that. This is insane, I might get this. Bob, I might get this. This place is insane. I know, this is crazy. I'm losing my mind. What is that? Oh no, I'm leaving with a switch. That is a bit of an oh no moment. Happy holidays, Pokemon Scarlet. I'm gonna have to Google that. I mean, there was a Scarlet Violet switch, wasn't there? So unbelievably, on like the last day of this trip, I think I just found a switch I've never seen before. A Happy Holidays, not Violet. It just says P.O. I'm not sure what the next word is. Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet. This guy is why I keep him around. I've Googled, this is the only thing I can find. No information, but just a listing on eBay for $600. It looks like when you lift open the top, there's the game as well as a little card or something. But this is 600, that's about 300. I think it's symbolism if I get another switch I technically don't have at the end of my trip. At the start of all of this, I said, there is probably a really cool switch that released in Japan that I've never even heard of or seen before. So I think I'm just hoping to be wowed and surprised by something at some point on this trip. And then in this random store, for the first time I see this box, I've never seen this before. So what it is, it's a white OLED switch. I'm not sure why it's not the Pokemon special edition, but it's a sleeve containing what's inside, which is the switch and then a copy of Scarlet and Violet. I'm gonna fast forward a little bit just to now to tell you what this is. On console variants website, they consider the Kirby box a variant switch. So surely this counts too. After a lot more Googling once I got back to this hotel, I managed to find one tweet that says, oh, I guess Japan Amazon is selling a Happy Holidays Nintendo Switch OLED. So Amazon did this, I guess, in Japan. I think this is so cool. I really didn't think I would be able to find anything Switch console themed that I didn't already have or I didn't know about. And apparently no one knows about it because there's nothing about it online. This is easily the biggest purchase I've ever made in Japan. Some of the coolest stuff I ever got at a store. We, I don't wanna say discovered, but we kinda did. It is so cool that I almost don't wanna tell you guys to blow the spot. But it's so good. There was another guy, another English speaking guy in here before that recognized us and said that he comes in all the time because unlike Akihabara, which blows the prices out, all these are affordable. And I'm now realizing everything we've ever bought in Japan has been overpriced. I thought it was cheap because it's cheap in comparison but it's not this cheap. It's not like this, no. I'm going back in for more. Nope. Bob, Hannah, Kim and I decided to uber back to the Nintendo hotel. And in a weird universal moment of symbolism, we went right past the Nintendo headquarters. I think it was just meant to happen. I wanted to see the Nintendo headquarters while we were here, like the actual current one. And since you can't go in, that was good enough. Morning. It's the last day of a very long trip. It's been exhausting. It's been therapeutic. It's helped my and Kim's mental space so much. We didn't think we could do this trip. Not only did we do it, we absolutely crushed it and had so much fun. We went to Universal yesterday and went to Nintendo World, which was like a religious experience. It was so cool. It was a really nice time getting to hang out with everyone and nice time getting to spend with Kim. We both love Japan so much and I appreciate this country so much and I can't wait to come back. I was re-watching my vlogs from last time and there was a moment where I said my heart was so full and I kind of cringed a little bit. I was like, oh, that's such a cringey thing to say. That was four years ago and I guess I don't remember it as well as I did then because as I sit here right now and I think about everything we just did again, my heart is full again. Yeah, I guess this is something we're gonna have to keep doing because I really do enjoy it. I didn't talk about it much in these vlogs but you guys know I've been dealing with a ton of anxiety. You know, I couldn't leave my house for a while. Just going to New York to do the podcast was like terrifying, but like I was doing it and getting better at it and I worked all the way up to catching the flight and I was terrified for that. But I did it. Kim and I both did it. This trip meant a lot more to me than I've even said in these videos and until the next set of Japan vlogs, like, comment, subscribe. Ja ne, matashita, but I won't actually see you tomorrow. I keep saying that because it's one of the only ways I know of saying goodbye. Sayonara, I feel is wrong because no one says it. I said that last time, but I'm okay.
