It's about being a part of a community that you celebrate and what it brings to the table in your military, in your hometown, in your country, in your workplace, in the world. And those communities that we, for our country, for the United States that we federally celebrate, you know, with holidays or months that are celebrated are not to exclude those that aren't celebrated in those months, but more to recognize those that have had the diversity or inclusion struggles the most that have come so far. It's not about being equal anymore. It's about being. We don't fight for equal rights and equal freedom. We fight for being, you know, a part of and fight for our joint country and we fight for our common ideals. We fight for our common goals. But we've come so far and it's 2014 that this isn't about, you know, fighting for a month to get celebrated. This is showing, you know, how far that diverse group has come and the role models that are there and the inspirational history. We all learn from where we've come from. Don't wait for things to happen to you. Make them happen for you.

How are we brother? I'm alright, who are you then? I'm coming over a cold, so my voice is going to sound a bit rotten. That's alright mate. First of all mate, I just want to thank you for coming on the show. That's cool.   I know you're a great guy, we met you at a BBC job and ever since we've just been that long done. That lasted long done. Aye, so we got offered a job, we took it and then we get bin fit.  I think it was a sleaze.  But I always like to go back to the start with my guests. Where they grew up, but part of Germany in that, your face. Just kind of where it all started for you and how you're getting the weight you're involved in now? Well, I grew up in Coatbridge, I was born in Glasgow, but I only lived there for like a year or so when I was a baby. I moved to Coatbridge and that's where I grew up. We grew up in Summerleigh in a one which was a brilliant area to grow up in man. I'm used to getting a kicking. But I ended up, I went to Coatbridge High and all that, which was brilliant.  Mayor beatings. But then after that, how long have I been in Coatbridge? I stayed there, I was like 27. I'm about 27, 28 and then I moved it. Freedom. Freedom, aye, but it was basically because I kind of had to move because that was after the Nazi past. I moved somewhere a wee bit more remote, which I keep very, very secret. No, you need to, because you made world news, world headlines that because you got a dog.  I watch guys like Frankie. Depends who you are. I double yesterday, people are questioning that. The news still like to go comedian with the quotes around it. You've got shows, you travel everywhere, you've got clearly a fan base. Listen, I watch Frankie Boyle, I used to watch guys like Roy Chubby Brown.  You've got a Doug to do a Nazi sign.  And if I'm honest, I was laughing, I thought it was funny. That doesn't mean I hate Jews or I'm a German or I'm a activist or I'm a right winger.  Only thing I know is about chicken wings and everybody was yesterday. I can remember when I was trying to talk to you about it and I felt like everyone I was saying was just a fan. You were like, I don't know what you're talking about.  Yesterday when we put it on that you were coming on the show, I was getting so much abuse.   And one of the guys who was saying, because somebody says, why are you giving him a platform? First of all, you've got a much bigger platform than me. And I said, second of all, the two of us grew up in Germany together.  That was that. I can't have worms. But the funny thing is, this guy is storing me a Hugo Boss t-shirt on, giving me abuse. No, no, in effect. David certainly got a geese, he's second name, but he's giving me abuse. He's given me a Hugo Boss t-shirt on. Just for the record, Hugo Boss was designed the Nazi uniforms back in the day. They did a great job. So it has been mental for you.  What was going through your head? I was just like, my message was just always ranting and raving about this.    Going, look at his wee face.   I thought it would be really, really funny to get me to something horrible. And I was already into the age of comedy. I was already into the age of jokes. I was already into the internet and certain circles who enjoy such things. So I just thought, that's a great idea.  Whenever he gave me a sweet. And as I put my hand in, I dropped the sweet, but he put his paw up to give me his paw, but I dropped it and I pure went to pick it up.   That's where it came from. So I just managed to get him to do it. So, like, react happily whenever I said a certain phrase. It's because he thinks it means treat. That's why. You're trained him to think. Can he untrain him? Still does it? Or these years later, he still does it? Why this certain thing make world headlines?  That's just because we live in the age of, like, the new outreach media. Like, find out something, especially the main thing that's in the crossfires right now is anything, you know, racism, bigotry, antisemitism, all of these things, because people like to constantly preach and scream about these things because I'm such a good person because I'm against it. And they like to, it's called virtue signalling, basically everyone, everyone, I'm a good person. Give me a pat in the back for being a good person. Bravo, well done. You've got the same opinion as 99% of the world. I don't have any relations. Because there was a video on last week, right, with Michael Jackson, somebody done a video says, and they were kidding on them, Michael Jackson, did you see it? And the guy says, oh, I was a good perifyle.  But nothing was says about that. That was a well-known committee in America. But yeah, you got a dog to raise its paw.  The thing is, like, see when it comes to sort of outrage, right, that those jokes you could maybe say were on the same level, right? It's the subject is what matters. It's a case of there are some subjects you can joke about and some that you can't. Well, at least that's what people think. I think you should be able to joke about anything. And I do. And I think so. And if you're on stage, if you're, it's a craft, it's an art. It was just, there's hundreds of things, there's millions of things at stake. It's said that are unacceptable. Frankie Boyle used to talk about disabled.  And people laughed and supported it. You're going to get people in that. I don't agree with certain things, obviously, but it is for you because it was freedom of speech you were trying to end up because you get charged for it. You get done. When the Polis came to your door, what happened?  I had eight subscribers who were my mates. Right? This is back. The channel sat with eight subscribers for like months and months and months, right? And I never got anybody and ended up. I made the video and means to used to do this thing like on date night where we would like to hook the laptop up to the telly and watch YouTube videos. And I put it on my channel just to send it around to my pals and go look what I made, right? But my plan was we would be sitting on the couch with a cup of tea to watch YouTube videos and then I would go, I've got a brilliant one.  But like, we never, see because we were so busy, we never got one of the nights and I went, she's never going to find it and nobody's going to find it. I'll just leave it there. And then I was going to a gaming convention in Iceland, right? And I think this probably happened as soon as I got on the plane to go, someone to this day still don't know who posted the video on Reddit and it made it to the front page of Reddit and Reddit's literally called the front page of the internet. Right? So it made it to the front page and it was blown up and never in the entire time I'm on a plane, no signal. So I'm going to a foreign country, still no signal and never because I didn't connect to Wi-Fi or anything like that.  I'm sitting in a bar in Reykjavik. Enjoying life? No, no, no, isn't it?  Hate more about to get you.  As soon as I connected to the Wi-Fi, boom, boom, boom, phone, mental and everything, five minutes later, I'm sitting going, what the fuck's this? Five minutes later, two phones me going, why is it press at the door?  I ended up like, and this was the mistake I made. They came at the door again, oh, we're on your side. We just want to hear your side of the story. We know you're a nice guy and everything. So I'm through Skype on the phone, like talking to them, going like that. Ah, okay, come on then. First mistake, press are absolute serpents, right?  I had loads of people in the media call me.  I ended up while I was in the next night when I was in a bar drinking again. I got an email for the call centre I worked in saying I was sacked.  It's a minimum wage call centre. Man, they did me a favour. So I just went like that to everyone. I just got sacked. I get steaming like that. Then I came home and just kept kicking off and I think it was about two or three days later after I came home. My mates in Iceland were all barming me up about it going, see when you land in the airport, they're going to be waiting for you at the gate. They're going to knock up by the way like that. Man, because I was actually feared.  Did you realise it would go as big? When have yous did that happen the first week? I try to remember. I think it got to about 500,000 the first week. It's sitting at nearly four million now. It's mental, isn't it? But sometimes these bad things can change a life for the best because now you're sitting at half a million on YouTube, your career's flying and people will judge it. There's so much jealousy towards you.  You're not coming in here wearing a Hugo Boss Nazi uniform, not a mean. Because you're a good guy and you're like, what are you doing?  It was a joke and it just blew up. But then it became the freedom of speech kind of thing.  They were at your side saying it's bad the way you're getting treated. How long did you spend in the jail? I was only in the jail overnight. For court the next day.  I was sitting in that cell going, really?  The thing that was quite funny was like, see when I'm in the house, like the cops came in and all that stuff and I was sitting there in my pyjamas and I'm like, I kind of do what I get lifting my pyjamas. Can I get changed? So I went in and get changed. And while I'm getting changed, I've got one officer watching me and then I've got the other.  But it ended up, the other officer is going around my house like taking pictures in the house. And then when I got outside, the press were waiting for me outside. Now throughout the week, like when the press came, like it was a scheme, it's a quite tight that area.  And no press for days and days and days. And then the press were there at the exact date and time of my arrest and we found out that the police illegally tipped the press off so that they could get pictures for a perp walk because whenever the police actually give any information to the press, it's supposed to be recorded and needs to be recorded as an official conversation and an official police document and no such documents exist. So somebody in the police tipped off the press. And that was, how was a formal complaining against that or is there anything happening, the pipeline we're at? No. They can do what they want.  If I go after them, they'll just try and get me even more.  This is going to be in the paper and what we are doing is getting a laugh and just basically, but they'll take words out it and they'll blot out it.  It's a bit extreme.  See the reason that they use it is it's almost a Pavlovian response at this point as soon as they hear any right-wing opinion, like no matter how milk-toaster it is, they just go, Nazi. And the reason that they do that is they're branded as a Nazi or a racist.   And I call them out in it all the time where they go, Nazi, racist, bigot, and I'm like that, prove what I said wrong and they never can.  You're not looking very good right now if you're calling people Nazis and they're always beating you in arguments, that people might start to think of shooting themselves in the footway and they're actually making the problem a heli a lot worse because they don't argue like they can't argue so they just go, Nazi. Why are they still going on about it? Why are they still targeting you?  Now to see the whole reason is the main things that get brought up is you piled about with Tommy Robinson, you did events with Tommy Robinson and you're in UKIP and it's like, that's all I need to know and I'm like, well why? And they never can. Or what they'll do is they'll give their own made up definition of what far right is and in our world the definitions and words to the left wing don't matter anymore. The fact that we were talking about on that show I like the definition doesn't matter anymore. We have an established word like racist and Nazi which have strong connotations behind the word we have a set definition but what these people have done is ignored the official definition and just use the word willy nilly completely correctly to the point where those words to me are and I don't know who's now man. But because the way they have treated you is a bit extreme that is very extreme and they're still out to get you they're still tabloids on the front pages nearly all the time still as we are Nazi and it's Society links are punching back.   Because you're selling papers and you're creating headlines where people are going to tune into it because everybody loves this but when you go to jail and it went that far were you ever worried for your mental health because it was heavy? There was times when stuff was rough like this was back like when the video first dropped the channel had like a few gained a few thousand I think I ended up being at like 3,000 subscribers because you get channels like that when they have like one massive video but there are other stuff rotten so basically they'll have a video with 10 million views but they've only got a few thousand subs so I'm going to need to try and find a job so I went back into security tried to apply for other places and some places like I would go in and after like a week I would get recognised and basically the manager would pull me in and go you need to go meet and I'm like no done it So you're losing your jobs as well for that?


Let A be an imbying matrix. Now associated to every matrix are four vector spaces, which we call the four fundamental spaces of the matrix. Now in this series, we've introduced two of those fundamental spaces already. The first of which was what we call the column space. The column space of a matrix, remember, is the span of the column vectors of said matrix. The second fundamental space that we introduced was called the null space, which was the solution set to the homogeneous system AX equals zero. In this video, we introduced the third of the fundamental spaces with one more to come. This is what we call the row space of the matrix A. This will be denoted as row of A for short. Now the row space is going to be the dual to the column space. In particular, we take the vector A transpose. Remember A transpose swaps rows to columns and columns to rows, and we're going to compute the column space of A transpose, and that will then be what we call the row space of A. That is, more specifically, the row space of A is equal to the column space of A transpose. Why do we call that the row space? Well, remember what the transposition operation does. It turns columns into rows and rows into columns. The column vectors of A transpose are just the row vectors of A. Then you're like, okay, I get it now. The row space is the span of the row vectors of A in the same way that column space is the span of the column vectors of A. Okay, it makes sense. Why don't you just say that for the first place? Well, there's a reason why we're introducing the transposition in this situation to find our row space. This really has to do with the fact that we are dropping some breadcrumbs in our forest for Hansel and Gretel to follow to a magical, beautiful candy house, which we call the fundamental theorem of linear algebra. This house does not have a witch inside of it. It has only goodness. Now, in order to prepare for the fundamental theorem of linear algebra, which will actually connect all four of these fundamental spaces together, we have to define row space using transpositions. And this is for an orthogonality condition that will be more clear when we get to that in chapter four of this lecture series. In the meanwhile, though, you can think of the row space. Okay, it's the span of the row vectors. But again, there's also one important caveat I should mention that if you're talking about a complex matrix, for complex matrices, we never, ever, ever use this symbol transposition. We actually always use the star, the conjugate transpose. So if you have a complex matrix A, then the row space definition A would modify to become the column space of A star, the conjugate transpose, which is the transpose, but also conjugation. Now, the columns of A star are not exactly the rows of A. They are, but there's also conjugation. And therefore, when you calculate the row space of a complex matrix, you take the span of the conjugates of the rows of A. So the thing is you have to remember to take the conjugates and why is it so important we take the conjugates? Again, follow the breadcrumbs to the fundamental theorem of linear algebra. It'll be much, much more clear in the future why we care about conjugates so much. We need the conjugation to make the orthogonality condition true for complex matrices. And so that has the consequence that the row space of a complex matrix is not exactly the span of its rows. It's the span of the conjugates of its rows. Now, for a real matrix, conjugation's invisible. So you can see it as, oh, okay, you're just taking the span of the rows there. So the row space is, in some respect, a complementary space to the column space. And as such, we call the dimension of the row space the co-rank. And this is similar to what we do in trigonometry. Talk about like cosine, cotangent, cosecant. Why the prefix co? Co here just is short for complementary. That's the complement function. And so the co-rank is the complementary dimension to rank, which is the dimension of the column space. Now, to compute the co-rank, right, you're trying to find the, to find the co-rank, you're finding the rank of a transpose, right? So think about that for a second. The co-rank, the co-rank of a is gonna equal the rank of a transpose. Which a transpose, this is gonna be the number, the number of pivots that we're gonna see inside of a transpose. But it turns out that the number of pivots in a transpose is actually gonna be the same number of pivots as in a, right? This is gonna be p. The reason is that for the row space, basically we're gonna count the number of pivot rows, which is the same as the number of pivot columns for the matrix. And so co-rank, which is the dimension of the row space here, in some respect, isn't a new quantity. So you don't actually hear a lot about co-rank, because co-rank you'll actually see is always equal to the rank. So I actually can amend my previous statement right here. The rank and the co-rank of a matrix are always gonna equal each other because they're always just equal to p. Because the rank counts the number of pivot columns. The co-rank counts the number of pivot rows and that's the number of pivots. The two things are the same thing. But if you do see discussion of co-rank, that's what it means. It's the dimension of the row space, the number of pivot rows. Now how do we actually do it so? So when we try, when we introduced the column space and the null space, we also have seen that there are ways of computing bases for the column space and for the row space. Now for the column, for the null space, excuse me. So can we find a basis for the row space of a matrix? What procedures can we use here? Well, one thing is we can just use the fact that we have that the row space is the column space of a transpose. So what you could do is you could just compute a transpose, you could row reduce that and then the columns of a transpose that are pivot columns would then give you a basis for the column space of a transpose. Then you could turn those back to rows and you would then get a basis for the row space. That's perfectly acceptable. You could do that. But the thing is to do that, you would have to row reduce a transpose. Can you find a basis for the row space of a using the matrix A? Can we row reduce A to find a basis for the row space? That's the question at hand here. I don't want to use this intermediate matrix A transpose if I don't have to. Now the problem is if you just row reduce A transpose, you have to find the pivot rows. And so much like the column space, if we could find the pivot rows of A, those would coincide with the basis for the row space. We could just grab those rows that coincide with those pivot rows. But unlike the columns, one thing I should mention is that when you row reduce matrices, the order of the rows can switch around when you row reduce things. When you do row reduction, columns never move. They can change their entries, but they never move around. And therefore if column one was a pivot column, that will never change. But for a matrix as you row reduce it, rows can go in different orders. So actually the pivot rows of A might not be the first two rows. They could be the last two rows and we just switch them up to top.  That actually is a little bit, that that's not true necessarily. You might be interchanging rows and you didn't know it. So the only way we can do the same algorithm we did for the column space is we keep track of all of the row operations, which admittedly I don't want to do that. We've kind of reached the point where I want to do as much on my calculator as I can. So I don't want to do row operations all the time. So can I get a basis for A using maybe like the RREF? And you can because it turns out that if two matrices A and B are row equivalent, then their row spaces will be identical to each other. It kind of makes sense because the row space is the span of the rows. And so if two matrices are row equivalent, then their row spans should be the same. Perfectly makes sense. I mean, we could provide a formal argument to this thing, but if two matrices are row equivalent, they'll have the same row spaces. And why this is useful is if we grab an echelon form of a matrix A, so say U is an echelon form of A here, then the non-zero rows of the echelon form will form a basis for the row space of U. So that is in the echelon form, we can see exactly who the pivot rows are and there's no confusion about interchange. But since U is equivalent to A, the row space of A is equal to the row space of U and so we can use a basis for the row space of U to give us a row space of A. So that sounds complicated, but it's actually super, super simple. This will be a very simple, simple way of finding the basis. And so what I wanna do is we're gonna take a four by five matrix A which you see here on the screen and I'm gonna find a basis for the row space, the column space and the null space all from the RREF of this matrix. And it's actually pretty efficient. The only difficulty is row reducing the matrix which if we use technology, we can do that pretty quickly. So take our matrix A and we're gonna row reduce it. So here's our A right here. We're gonna row reduce it to our row reduced echelon form right here, which we're gonna call that U. This works for any echelon form. And so let's identify the pivot positions. So the pivot positions are gonna be the first three rows. So we see there's a pivot position in the one, one, two, two and three, three spot. So what this tells us is that to find a basis for the row space of A, we're gonna take the first row of the RREF, the second row of RREF and then the third row of U right there. So we don't take the rows of A, we take the rows of the RREF because we don't know if we interchange things around. Things could have got mixed up. We don't know, but we do know in that in U, the pivots are the first three rows. So we're gonna grab those. And so this then forms a basis for the row space. The row space of A is then equal to the span of these three vectors right here. And I did deliberately write them horizontally because we like to think of them as row vectors which often will write horizontally like so. Now, if you don't like fractions, right? So you have like a 15 11th, a 7 11th, 5, you know, that's like a surpy there, but anyways, 5 11, 6 11th. So if you don't like fractions, be aware that you can always replace a spanning vector with any non-zero skill or multiple of that same spanning vector. And that won't change the span. That won't change linear independence. So that is the first vector right here. They have just one zeros and negative ones. I'm good with that. Well, we're gonna keep that one. But for the second one, because we have this like row, we have a bunch of fractions, you could just multiply the row by the least common denominator, which will be 11 here. In which case, you could then replace the vector zero, one, zero, 15, 11, seven, 11th with zero, 11, zero, 15, seven. Those vectors with the exact same span, but then you can avoid some tedious fraction arithmetic if you don't want that. And then for the third row, you could also replace zero, zero, one, five, 11, six, 11th. You could times that by 11 and get zero, zero, 11, five, six. And so this right here gives us a basis. This gives us a basis for the row space. And therefore, if we take the span of these vectors right here, we will get the row space of our matrix A. And that's all it is to finding the basis of the row space. You reduce the matrix to echelon form. You grab the non-pivot columns, excuse me, the non-pivot rows, and that's your basis in from the echelon form. And then rescale them if you want some whole numbers or something like that. That's all one has to do. How does one find a basis for the column space again? Remember that you still have to look at the pivots. So the first three columns are pivots. And so then you're gonna grab the first three columns of A and that'll give you a basis for the column space that you see right here. We grab columns one, two and three from the matrix. I'm gonna zoom out a little bit so you can see both of these on the same screen. So you grab the first three columns of A because those were pivot columns and that gives you those. So we actually will grab vectors from A, the column vectors of A to get the column space of A. We don't do that for the row space because like I said, because of potential interchange, we don't actually know where the pivot rows are in A but we do know the pivots in the RREF and since they'll have the same row space, you get that. One thing I should mention here is that the column space of A is not the same thing as the column space of this echelon form. When you reduce matrices, you do change the column space. You don't change the row space though and that's why we can grab things from the echelon form for the row space, but for the column space, we have to grab it from the original matrix. But the good thing is that while you row reduce, pivot rows might move around, pivot columns don't move. And so that's how that works here. For the column space, you use the inertia of the column of the pivot columns to find columns of the original matrix. But then for the row space, you use the invariance of the row space to get you a basis from the echelon form. Now, just by contrast, let's also talk about the null space here. This one's probably the hardest of all of these bases to find but we can also find this from our echelon form. So the thing is we look at the non-pivot columns to find the basis for the null space. So we take these vectors right here. So what we're gonna do is we're gonna get two vectors associated to our free variables, which our free variables are gonna be in the fifth and fourth position. So we get one, zero, zero, one. Now the first three entries, we're gonna look at this row associated to these pivots right here and then take the opposite sign. So we're gonna take one, negative 15, 11th and then negative five, 11th. That gives you the first vector. And again, if you don't want the 11th there, times everything by 11, and you'll get the vector 11, negative 15, negative five, one, and zero. You can get away with that. I guess that should be an 11 there as well. And then for the other one, we're gonna grab a one, we're gonna grab a negative 7-11, so switch the sign, and then a negative 6-11, looking at these things right here, just the second column. And then again, if you don't want the fractions times everything by 11, you're gonna get 11, negative 7, negative 6, zero, and 11. Have a slight typo there, sorry about that everyone. And so then we find a basis for the null space as well. So all three of these bases of the fundamental space, this can come from the RREF. From the RREF, we can extract the basis for the null space. From the RREF, we know which columns of A to grab for a basis of the column space. And then for the row space, we can actually grab pivot columns to find a basis for the row space. There is a fourth fundamental space known as the left null space, which we will introduce in chapter four. Its basis is a little bit more technical and it'll involve some orthogonality conditions which we have not introduced yet, which is why we'll delay that one until.


One thing if I would like to give to the industry or I would like to empower the industry what would it be and My only thought was that it would has to be building leadership and leadership has to be multidimensional Today India has roughly 1.8 million restaurants for 1.3 billion people So I don't really think we are that short of restaurants as we would like to believe but whatever What is more concerning I believe is for the industry to understand is that we are Rather less when it comes to an organized being an organized industry unlike the rest of the world Be it China be it the US be it other markets like Europe where the organized industries share is very large ours Is fairly less which is 15% But you know when we I was researching About the organized industry I also understood that they were just about 50 Companies in all that had more than hundred restaurants. In fact those 50 were also probably closing and opening more restaurants all the time Less than one-tenth of the entire restaurants are branded in India So which means you know, it's nobody's bet where you're gonna be eating tonight Numbers talk differently to different people when I was looking at these numbers which were put together by NRAI report You know, it gave me a very different sort of understanding of where this industry needs to be now Qsr sector is about 21% of The entire industry it stands at about almost close to 50,000 crores But in the last few years what we've seen increasing in bulging our sectors like casual dining and cafes Fine-dine probably has reduced even Qsr would have been reduced to a bit But I realized that you know more hybrid format of restaurants is what has really changed this Entire numbers in this list that you see in front over here So what when I say hybrid formats, you know, they're their formats of restaurants which have come between I would say Family restaurants and fine-dine restaurants which you today call casual dining restaurants And then there's another new format which is going to evolve which is another sort of hybrid restaurants Which is somewhere going to be between casual dining and quick service restaurants, which is your fast casual restaurants So the bulge that you see in the middle, which is casual dining cafes It's only going to sort of either increase or it is going to sort of squeeze each other So casual dining might actually come down and fast casual might go up and cafes would probably You know decrease some to give or make way for fast casuals but what what is really sort of something that you need to take away from this table is that you know Why do people go to these restaurants? I realized that for a quick service restaurant people basically go there and keep going there because of the familiarity of the restaurant That's the reason why customers and repeat customers would keep going to quick service industry Because you know, they're familiar. They know the food. They know the ambience They know what to expect on the contrary people go to a casual dining or even to a fast casual for the thrill of it For the frills that might actually be there in the restaurant They go more for an adventure than really for eating. So the familiarity might not be there Which means the industry has to do all the more work in terms of building its customer and building its repeat customer loyalty But you know I think If we have to take really a cue from this sheet What we really need to understand is that there is no leadership per se that exists today in the casual dining or the newly emerging Formats QSR today if you're opening today if you're a young restaurant here who's starting a QSR Believe you me, you know, they're there there's enough number of suppliers in this industry. There are enough number There's enough leadership. There is enough people who can guide you mentor you and you'll you'll be up and about in no time That's because this industry has able to establish itself not just in India But globally and there is enough leadership that exists enough mentorship enough resources enough industry suppliers Which will help you grow very fast But when it comes to casual dining and cafes and fast casuals There is not enough work that has been done for the industry to prosper and really be growing in the Direction that we need to see it growing Which is a concern for me, you know, because that till there is enough Knowledge till there is enough expertise that exists in the industry for the industry to grow whether it is casual dining or fast Casual or any other format it will not happen and and you know, that is why we'll probably see more failures We'll probably see restaurants opening restaurants closing that that needs some correction and that needs some leadership to happen in this Industry at some stage if these formats really have to grow and prosper and more importantly grow large This is what I feel is not so visible in the industry, you know I I run the entrepreneur magazine So I follow the funding scene the largely the you know capital movements very closely And I realize that early funding practically doesn't exist in this industry angel funding. There is no angel fund Which I can say would cater to I know the Indian angel network guys very closely And they've only made probably just one in big investment in the food service sector Well, they made about five in the blockchain sector, which is like a non-existent sector across the world right now So early funding doesn't exist but also more importantly VC PE funding doesn't exist to a big level It's in fact been drastically falling down in the last few years Restaurant valuations have not been that great as we would like to see them There's more bridge funding and there's more haircuts being taken in the industry Then I would say a big investment moving behind a high growth firm in the sector and that is not something That is usually seen or that is something that is You know the or should be part or should be as a picture that should be seen in a Sector which is otherwise very growth-oriented. I don't see unicorns coming out of restaurant business like I see in other sectors So, you know, so really I mean if you're entrepreneurial and you want to grow and you want to bigger build business in Restaurants to become a unicorn Yeah, it's not gonna happen or it's not gonna come easy. There's not so much fall in attrition You know attrition I've always felt is a function of the industry and where the industry is headed Why I feel attrition is more in this industry is because there is no sort of clear direction as to where the industry is growing a Person who joins the industry doesn't know what his career looks like five years ten years down the line If he's whether he's working in the restaurant or whether he's working in the organization So I think that is something that needs to be corrected But a clear direction building visibility for where your talent is going to be five years down the line in the industry Is very important to pinpoint Barring hotel chefs and probably chefs who are probably being more seen on television or You know, maybe Being celebrated in some other forms. I don't see chefs being empowered in India to that extent You know restaurants are all about chefs casual dining is really all about the chef who is going to service that Restaurant so they need to today be really acting like not just be known for their technical skills But really for their organizational skills on how they organize maybe one unit two unit three units that they are likely to manage in their career So, you know somewhere or the other I think they need to wear a CEO's cap in the restaurant and Be looking beyond just their technical functions of our culinary functions We need far more efficient supply chains locals have to be substituted with a more efficient more optimized supply chain Because you know you cannot address hygiene you cannot address Good food, you know day on day being able to service your customer with the right food that he's looking at from your store Till you have a good supply chain in place. I Barring a few large chains the fifties that I was talking about. I don't see a very big supply chain Being existing in the industry and most importantly I think there is no formal mentorship and incubation that one sees in this industry As it should happen in a growing industry. They're not enough mentors Who are really going to take your industry from level A to level B or level B to level C? Which exists which would be able to also help you in your funding drive which will be able to help you in your Organizational drive. I don't see that and there is very little incubation. In fact the first incubator. I came to know was Yellow time and we were doing the franchise in their show recently on TV So incidentally, you know when we were doing this consumer show, which was the first ever TV show being done in India we realized that About so the 50 person people who really applied for the show were actually restaurant owners and There was only one company which came up which said that we're going to be tomorrow's incubator for restaurants So honestly all this doesn't exist and till it does not exist and come forward and be seen and Visibly be seen. This industry is not going to go anywhere big Till it organizes itself to the last mile every new restaurant here First of all when they open a restaurant or the think of expanding restaurants need to put it all in place or put it All in order in order to grow


Hi everyone, Joe for jazbeakscasebreaks.com coming at you with 2022 Panini Chronicles draft picks football. Three box pick your team break number one and if you follow the instructions here, you got a chance at a box of this. In fact, I brought four boxes out here. One of those four boxes is going to be the giveaway box in this three box break. So first off, big thanks to everybody here and we'll ship that box to you sealed. We'll do that giveaway randomizer at the end. Jeremy with that last spot mojo lions. Thanks everyone. So now let's just select a die. Select that one and we'll go one, two, three, four. If it's a five or six, I'll just roll again.  So this is going to go to someone at the end of the break. We'll keep that off to the side right here. And now let's do the three box break. This looks very, the box is actually, it's a little confusing, you got to pay attention because the color scheme and all that very similar to 2021 hobby is the 2022 draft picks featuring the latest draft class. Now I'm going to have to consult groupbreakchecklist.com. That's what we use, our official checklist provider for sorting purposes. My head's not quite in football mode yet where I'm not in mid-season form. We all know where every one of these guys go. I think all cards ship, all cards ship. So I think as noted in the description, there is a checklist. We always default to the checklist first. If a player is not on the checklist for some reason, then it'll go to their current team if they're active or the team they played for the longest if inactive or not on the checklist. All right. Good luck, everybody. Our first hit is college ticket autograph Bailey Zapp, 27 out of 49. And Bailey Zapp is a patriot for David. I don't like that poor edge work there. That must have been part of the... There's a machine that puts cards into these packs. Must have gotten caught back there, but there you go, Bailey Zapp. I don't think it's going to matter too much for Bailey Zapp, unfortunately, but just letting you know, 12 out of 99. David Bell and a redemption. Any guesses on the redemption? There's David Ojabo, 106 out of 149. Second-year Mac Jones. Kenny Pickett. Jonathan Taylor to 99. What do we think about Kenny Pickett going to start? It's for Brian and the Steelers. There's Desmond Ritter, who I think is with the Falcons. That's going to go to Adam. And behind David Bell is full coverage Matt Corral, or Coral.  It's going to be for Brian. And we've got a Kobe Bryant, not that Kobe Bryant, but football player Kobe Bryant. Kobe. That's for Seattle. That'll be for Will. Where there's a Will, there's a way. The redemption is Khalil Shakir, in-flight signatures red. And that will be for the Bills. Buffalo! All right, that was the first box, second box. You know what, he should be 8 or 24. But I think he's sporting number 7. Maybe in the NFL, he'll wear an 8 or a 24. That's Kyle Hamilton to 99. Second-year Trevor Lawrence. And we have a Garrett Wilson. Substantial Swatches. Garrett Wilson is with the Jets. That's right. Jets had a nice strap. That's going to go to Adam and his Jets. And we got Jack Jones. We got the Jack. Patriots. Defensive back. That's going to go to David M. We got 47 out of 199. That is Zaheer White. I think went to my Raiders. Yeah, Zaheer White. Went to my Raiders. Could be a nice Josh Jacobs, Zaheer White. Kenyon Drake. Backfield, that could be fun. It's Kyle Harper with my Raiders. TJ Watt to 149. And we've got another redemption. That's to 49. The Derek Stingley Jr. That's to 75. Another Kenny Pickett. And the redemption is, good luck, is Kennedy Brooks, Contender's College Ticket Autograph. Old Kennedy Brooks. And that will be a running back for the Fly Eagles Fly. And that's Oliver with the Eagles. Next box. Let's see, I don't need to replay the Dodgers game. Maybe, oops, sorry. About that. Sound, put on a little Summer League basketball. Was it Angels? I could watch a little Halo baseball too. Let's see, let's wait for 24.7 seconds in the second quarter of this exciting Nets Timberwolves Summer League game. Nets up 52.38. Kevin Durant, who needs Kevin Durant? Who needs Kyrie? All right, third and final box. We got Kavon Tibido. Substantial Swatches. And that'll be a defense event for the New York football giants. That'll be for Jerry. Another Kenny Pickett. And we got a Jermaine Johnson. The former Seminole is now a jet. Can't wait for camp to start, so we can start seeing some of these players do their thing. There's Wondale Robinson. All of these guys pretty much just are just holed. New York football giants on that one, because you never know who's going to emerge, or who's not, as the case may be. Bradshaw to 99. And we got John Mechie, the third, 10 out of 10 in-flight on-card autograph. Nice. Houston, Eric Leal. Nice. Breeze Hall, one out of 99. Got a Derrick Henry, one out of 10. Nice one for the Titans.
