Members of the 102nd Intelligence Wing, welcome to October Drill. I'm Colonel Wendy R. Miho, proud commander of the 202nd Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance Group. I'm especially pleased to speak to you today because this afternoon the 202nd will, at long last, hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark the official opening of our operations facility in Building 165. This is a big deal. After over seven years since the stand-up of our mission, the 202nd has reached full operational capability. With two separate operations floors to house the 203rd and the 267nd Intelligence Squadrons, respectively, and sufficient space for the 202nd Intelligence Support Squadron to provide both expert system support and conduct the rigorous training our analysts require to perform intelligence in the cyber domain, this building allows our analysts to maximize intelligence production capability, facilitates collaboration for mission success, increases unit cohesion, and positions the 202nd to be the premier signals intelligence unit in the Air National Guard. Fun facts, Building 165 has been home now to three operations groups. It was originally constructed to house the F-15 mission in 1988. Then it was modified for the 102nd Air Operations Group, aligned with the 608th Air Operations Center and Strategic Command. And now 165 is optimized for the 202nd Cyber ISR mission. Fun fact number two, Building 165 was in the thick of renovation during the COVID-19 pandemic and due to lack of outside expertise and because contractors and product delivery were delayed, our own cyber technicians in the 202nd Intelligence Support Squadron procured nearly $250,000 of communications products and designed and engineered the layout for the entire secure facility. They completed wire runs and finished equipment layout to which the contractors applauded our folks for their outstanding design capability and attention to detail. Fun fact number three, from 55 workstations in the initial operations skiff in the 158th hangar to the 120 workstations we have now, moving into Building 165 has more than doubled our production capability and exponentially improved our ability to support our mission partners and to be ready for the high-end fight. I want to thank the senior leaders of the Massachusetts Air National Guard, past adjutant generals and wing commanders who, more than a decade ago, had the foresight to recognize that the cyber domain would be pivotal in future conflicts. They took a risk in offering the Air Operations Group as an offset for us to gain our mission, despite the fact that mission conversion would mean yet another shake-up in the wing and instigate another round of cross-training in new sessions. Their vision ensured that the Massachusetts Air National Guard and the 102nd Intelligence Wing remains relevant, leading the Air National Guard Intelligence Enterprise to meet warfighting requirements. I also want to thank the many sister units within the wing, civil engineering, contracting, calm and forced support, from air conditioning to audio-visual equipment. We continue to rely on your assistance for mission success. Certainly, we couldn't have reached full operational capability without your support. And finally, to the members of the 202nd ISR Group, thank you for your perseverance, your patience, your diligence and your continued hard work. Let this afternoon's ribbon-cutting ceremony be a tribute to the outstanding intelligence analysis you've conducted in our brief history as an intelligence unit. And let it be a glimpse into the future contributions you'll make to national security. This is your home, and you will mark yet another milestone in the distinguished legacy of the 102nd Intelligence Wing.


This is JSATV, the newsroom for tech and telecom professionals. I'm Dean Perine and welcome to JSATV. We are coming at you live from Encompass 2016 in the Lone Star State of Texas, Dallas, Texas, to be exact. And I am here with Mr. Cliff Kane. Cliff is the co-CEO of Clarion and Mr. Kevin Rocks. Kevin is the executive vice president of sales and marketing for Clarion. Guys, thank you for joining us on JSATV. Thank you for having us over, Dean. You bet. Thank you, too, Kevin. Dean, always a pleasure. You bet, guys. I'm going to start with Cliff. Cliff, how is the show going for you? It's been terrific. We were just wall-to-wall meetings and just can't get enough. It's been great so far. Outstanding. So Cliff, I'm going to ask you a question that the answer to was a little different last time we spoke. Why don't you tell our viewers a little bit about Clarion? So Clarion has just made a very successful acquisition of Pangea Networks. So we started life as a dark fiber provider, but now we're firmly into the lit services business. Very good. Very good. So let's talk a little bit about that new news. It's big news, right?  Why don't you tell us a little bit about the acquisition? Yeah, we're really happy about it, especially because Clarion brings a lot of dark fiber assets and a lot of back office support that really takes Pan Metro Ethernet, which is the flagship product of Pangea Networks, now part of Clarion, that we've been driving in the industry now for wholesale carriers for the past eight years. And now with Clarion's resources, we're going to be able to take this product to hundreds of new buildings in and around the New York metropolitan area. We're really excited about that. So you're the new EVP, so why don't you tell our viewers where you came from? I came from Pangea Networks. I was the CEO and the founder along with a partner and basically been doing this for almost 10 years now prior to the acquisition from Clarion. All right, I'm going to ask you guys to put on your predictive caps. If you could predict what the company's going to look like, say, in a year, what might that look like? Well, so I can tell you that we're going to really focus on developing the Pangea assets, the Pangea customers and the Clarion customers and Clarion assets, and we'll probably look to build some more backbone next year and maybe even another acquisition. Outstanding, so you recently went with a press release go out about being service ready. Why don't you tell our viewers a little bit about that? Well, so at Clarion we like to put forth meaningful press releases. We don't just blast almost anything out there that some of our competitors might do, but the whole idea of making that announcement is because we've nailed down all of our back office systems. We've nailed down our fiber to where we know where everything is and we've also imported all of the Pangea assets and network into our system. So we're ready to be of service completely 100%. Very, very exciting.  Customers, what do they look like? What's your ideal customer? What might our viewers might need to know as far as the kind of service you provide and to who you provide it to? Wholesale carriers, both on a domestic and international level. Many of these global carriers have offices around the world, but they can't be very dense in each and every market and each and every city globally. What Clarion provides these carriers is more of a dense network in New York City, for example. And what happens is a lot of these carriers end up actually end up white labeling a lot of the services that we provide as their own because we make it simple to connect to them vis-a-vis an NNI or some type of other connection at a data center, which helps expand their products. So we're really the feet on the street for a lot of out-of-market domestic carriers, international carriers, ISPs, technology companies, et cetera. Outstanding, guys. I'm not going to keep you any longer. Receptions tonight, are you going to go to some? Absolutely, I'm going to go to all of them. Very good, very good. And how about you? Are you going to join this guy? Absolutely. I heard JSA TV is having a function this evening. We'll be there. We'll be the first ones there. I'll be on an airplane, Kevin. Okay, Dean. Guys, thank you so much. Thank you, Dean. And thank you, viewers, for watching JSA TV. We'll see you soon.


Watch. I bet all my money on it! Everything! Oh, never mind, I lost everything. Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Hello everybody, and welcome back to another episode of Jurassic World Alive, where we've got two things, two really big things I want to do today. First one is, I want to use Interaptor, and we're going to do a huge fusion, which hopefully will get it to another level higher. And I also want to take on the Lord Thornax in the final battle we've got to do, and get some exclusive, unique DNA from that. But before we get into that, I just want to say a big thank you to our Alliance, and especially Tomo, who got the top contributor for the entire week, with 11 top contributions, followed by IC Boy, number 10, who got 10, sorry, and ZigDad, who got 9. We actually got a new defense record, which was rank 8, I think it was. It's the highest we've ever gotten for defense, which is really good. I've also started doing this thing, which you may be able to see there. I think it's there, it might be there, which is like a hall of fame. So what I do is every time we max out on Incubator, take a screenshot, and then tally up, and then give people first, second, third place. I kind of think we're going to make it fun. Also, it also helps me see who's active in the Alliance, and if there's any free loaders, they're going to be kicked out. And actually, I think we've had more people get the top contributions who I've never seen before. So I think maybe this has given them a, maybe a well and kick up the arse, or probably just a reason to do it, because now it's like, way, you get on the hall of fame once a week, every week. Anyway, let's get on. The Indoraptor Gen 2. I got my buddy handed to me by this bloody thing. Actually, we can't do that. We have to go into Indominus. The other night, I got wiped, completely wiped, and I got a terrible team handed to me of everything, and it was 150 speeds, so there's literally nothing I could do. It makes me wonder what people in the really high leaderboards face. Like, what kind of modded creatures? Like, what mods do you have on those creatures? I would love to see screenshots, or even in the comments down below. I also notice on some groups on Facebook, people comment their reliances, or take screenshots, and they've got like 500 darts out of 140. How'd you do that? Just Jane really curious, like, how is that? There must be some way I don't know about of just stacking loads and loads of darts up, apart from buying incubators, maybe? I don't know. Anyway, this is the biggest fusion we're ever going to do for Indominus Rex Gen 2, because ages ago, Tyrannosaurus Rex Gen 2 was not sought after, and neither was Charlie. So, 250 here. The lowest we can get is 2,500 DNA. That's the lowest. Are you ready? I'm expecting to see at least 100, or maybe 200s in here. I don't know. Okay, let's see what we get. Oh, 80 is the highest we ever got. Oh, that's not so good, but a lot of 50s are now 2,000. Oh, we doubled it! We got an average of just over 20 DNA a pop, taking us to 5,699. So, we can do a 20 fuse for Indoraptor Gen 2, which is a minimum of 200, which would, of course, get us nowhere near our goal. Come on, level 25. Come on, or 50, or some lots of 30s. 470, damn, just over half. Oh, that's annoying. Ah, well, it's blue, really, who's just letting us down. Damn it, blue. Well, we can still do at least four more, and just see how close we can get to that level 26, because I saw somebody take out Lord Lothornex with an Indoraptor Gen 2. It was boosted, but I think he's got like an instant pounce or an instant strike, like rampage, so he can hit you with two times damage right off the bat, and they just did mutual theory, got faster than him, and then did theirs, like their two times damage, and proper Kildom League. So, I was hoping that I'd be able to get, but it's just blue. Oh, 400 more, and level 26. Well, we got pretty close. We got close, and also, if you want to go in the link in the description below, you will find a link that will open up Drosselworld Live and give you 50 bucks for free. You're welcome, it advance. Also, I noticed some very clever people were using, like, taking my link and realized that the number was just changing every week. So, what were they doing? They were posting it in their discos and stuff being like, hey, 53 bucks. We don't even have to watch this video. Got you, because now it's no longer like that. You're spotted for everyone. Hope you're happy. But, if you watch my video, you can still get it down there. So, reluctantly, you'll have to at least listen to, hello, before you get your link. Boom, here we go. 200 bucks for each stake. Two epic incubators. We're going to open three incubators today, guys. Oh my God, the choices for titling thumbnail are endless. If we do this, that is. Mission 78. All we need to do is defeat him. That's it. Do we get to see what he has? Okay, so nullifying strategy. Already, instant rampage. That's it. Two times damage. Doesn't go through block, though. Swapping, shattering rampage. Well, he never swaps out, so that's that. The long invincibility. You need something that doesn't have armor. It has 60% armor. You need something that can go through armor. You need that too. You need your own defense shattering rampage. Two creatures that have that right at the bottom. It has magnetator and tricor. It speeds 142, which is still pretty high. So right off the bat, he can do that. He can do 5,000 damage. So we need something that's armored. Can we not? Is he nullified? Oh, he's immune. I thought so. He's immune. It's a tricky one. It's a tricky one. Does he have? He does have his own nullifying strike. I'm just trying to think if I go for my pellet, this guy, the Yoshi. What's his speed? 142. Okay. Come on. Right. We'll be able to do this if we just get looking with early dominance and just go for a rampage. I mean, it does have 60% armor. So we'll probably only still do like 4,000 damage. If that, with the rampage, but that's half his health at least.  Thought it was good. I mean, thought it was going to be good, right? It can be killed in one hit straight off the bat though. So, and it takes two to cool down. It's using thought at the right opportunity. That's it. To start with, I think we've got to go with the risky. We've got to go with the risky play. We've got to go. Hold on. Okay. We've got to go with the risky early dominance. We've got to go for the cloak because we are quicker. Oh my God. It's huge. Look at them eyebrows. It's so funny that something there's an inside joke at Lydia. I don't, he does go for it. Oh, well, well, well, well, well, well, well. What we could do is go for the rampage and then die. Or we could go for a swap in.  At least then we've done like a lot of damage and a crit, please. Oh, well, 3,400. Oh, just, just the, oh, the rebuttal. Not good. Okay. Okay. So now what? Now what? He's got one more turn until we could, we could go for Thordor. We could go for Thordor here. Come on. Come on. We could go for a big hit. Actually, he's going to kill us depending on what he goes for. Yeah.  Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, God. Which health do you need? Oh, great. Yes. We're going to do it. Come on. Come on. Okay. You can do, you can do instant rampage now. You can do instant rampage. Have we killed them with a tricor? We've killed them with a tricor. Done. Done. I think, I think we're done. There's nothing you can do, right? Priority instant rampage. Well, I've got loads of armor and we get to hit him back. Oh, and because we got defense shadowing. Yes. Thordor's taken out. There we have it. Oh, finally we completed it. Beautiful. We got 10,000 Lithonics DNA, two amazing epic incubators and 200 bucks. So, not too bad. Let's have a look. So 200 bucks. That's good. That's good. Okay. So here we go. The biggest one. I don't know what's in here actually. I don't know what we get from this. This was one of the incubators they have to pay like real money for. So 3,000, 35,000. Okay. 531 triceratops. 3,740 trauma. Okay. It's all right. Apalachor is 5,555. All right. Driggerix. That's going to be good to donate. Delta. Oh, yes. I'll take that. Oh, yes. Nodosaurus don't really need it. Although it's used for a lot of hybrids. I realized yesterday. Oh, yes. Oh, my gripe is always going to be so happy. And what's this one? 54. You know, I'd rather it was that way around. I wouldn't want it the other way around. Good Lord know. Okay. And here we go. An epic incubator. Let's see. Let's see what we get. So another 1,000 or 15,000 coin. Very good. Stegoceratops. Stegoceratops. Uh, the one I bet I'm going to get something like sauropelter, aren't I? Sauropelter is going to be like loads, isn't it? Oh, okay. Okay. Ronald Argentinosaurus though. Right. What would I have? Oh, it's split evenly. What's it going to be? What's it going to be? Oh, it was, it was almost even. $199,000. Or are the sauropels? No, we need these because Dina Charis is not great. 10,000 Lithonics DNA. Like we really need that. Whoa. Wait, is this new? The toughest trainer is still ahead. I suggest encrypting yourself. I thought Lithonics was the end. Defensive if you want to maintain the title of leader. Uh, okay. Whoa. Whoa. We gave a flappy DNA and that. Oh, also, before we get into any more, how about we open up another Epic Incubator? I know you might be thinking, Beaver, how would you have another Epic Incubator? Well, hello. I'm just going to give you a second. If we go into PvP, you probably already saw it, didn't you? Damn. Didn't think about that. Well, there it is. Look how this shirt is way too small. I've grown too huge for this shirt. Oh, it's just shrunk in the wash. Probably shrunk in the wash. So I've been spinning through my incubators, not only does it help with the Alliance missions, but I get mods from it eventually. So what I'm going to do is just speed up through this one. It costs like, well, 117 bucks. But I'm not really forced. I'd probably open up to you guys and see what we get. So 15,000 coin, 1,000, 142,000, 10,000. Uh, Tony Caliber is not very good. Yeah, not very good. Oh, not very good. I mean, you can't really have a bad Epic except for that kind of because who uses, I mean, Oh, there, brother of that.  Um, and I'm just going to set off the three hour. Well, there you go. That was pretty, pretty awful. Oh my God. I just realized we can only use one creature. One creature. One creature. Oh, oh, this, this might not be so good. Okay. Well, we're going to start off by nullifying. What would have been better? Oh, I don't know. Magnet is like a really good dinosaur though. Right. It does have defense shattering and it depends what his other one is. As if he goes for it. Oh, I'll take that. I'll take that. I'll take that little recover. Concave it. Like these models look so good. So good. Oh, oh, swapping. Interesting. Interesting. Um, not so good for me though. Um, but it's going to get, I need all the help I can get, especially with evil fluffy. Um, is it going to swim? I mean, all of these guys have a, yeah, they all have the counter. Um, but I think they're all dead in one hit now. I think. Oh, yes. There you go. Magnet data. Oh, we only need one way. That was it. Oh, oh, well, that was a lot easier than I expected. So even more DNA. So what do we got? 2005 from a coin. Um, 200 concave in it, which you don't really need unless you go for evil fluffy, which is kind of a waste in my opinion. Oh, we can still haven't got Raja Stega up to level 20. So I still can't make any DNA, but I just got all of that from him. And another 50. I've already got loads of it. I could get level 26. So I wanted to. They would be crazy to do that. So this is the Gripo DNA. Ooh, some good DNA here. What defeat one creature? Just one. Just one creature. Um, I mean, if we went for a cloak and then did, I think we could get lucky. None of those have, I mean, maybe one could have like a short defense, which might be a bit annoying. But if we can get lucky here with early dominance and we go for a cloak, we get our rampage off. That is war two for 8,000 damage. And hopefully you switches. Um, his griper suit just griper suit just has 20%. Oh, the low protection is not what I wanted. Oh, no. Um, that's really not what I wanted. Um, we might have lost it. Please get a grip. Please get a grip.  Anything but that, anything. Yeah, I think we've lost this one. I think we lost this one. There's nothing we can do. Oh, no. Unless I get a crit and even then. No. Okay. Well, we lost. I was hoping it would be something else. I was hoping it was. Oh, we get a crit, but we're definitely dead. I was hoping it was going to be anything but Gripo. I think a tricosaurus or Thor though would have been able to kill it quite easy. But, um, I mean, it was a tactic. If it was anything but freaking that, I think we would have been pretty good. Okay. So we just need one kill. Um, and I think Thor though is going to do it. Oh my God, we're going to lose unless we get a crit. And even then, I don't think we're going to do it. Oh, now we got the crit. Ah, everything just a tiny bit off. Are you kidding me? I couldn't have got a crit. Oh, it's not hard. It's not hard. It's just a matter of getting lucky. So let's do it again. Okay. Can he swap when stunned? I don't think he... Oh, we can swap when stunned. Oh, okay. Uh, well, I think that's it. Oh, we got a crit anyway. There we go. Oh, I thought it was up. Well, if I do a stun like an instant charge, then I'll get a free go and I'll probably be able to kill whatever comes in. But that'll do 20, 20 griper. Oh, it's solely needed. So solely needed. Grip a lift done. Good, good, good. 20 legendary. I'll take that. Carnotaurus, which is... I guess it's not too bad. And the 200 puttitas. Not bad either. Oh, we've only got two left. Ooh, okay. What's this one? So we need to defeat three on the... That's four, James. That's not how you do math. Oh, God, it's a hard team. Ooh, it's a really hard team. Oh, Lord. I think that's going to have to be it. That's going to have to be it. Thor does just too much. As much as it pains me to say it, Thor does not as good as Magnetator or something like that. Magnetator is a very good one to start with, especially against this team. What is their speed on? 127. Okay, okay. So we can... It might go for superiority or cleanse. Sorry, not superiority. Cleansing. That would be a clever thing for him to do. Yep, superiority strike. That's what it's called. And then...  I can't. Okay, I may as well go for this and just get a hit off. And then I don't think anything else will be quicker than me because my speed is 150. I forgot about that. I was like, son, this is the best creature in the damn game. I'm getting speed up. Oh, Brontalasmatherium. Probably going to play this better. What can he do actually? You can probably go for the two times decelerating, can't he, like, right off the bat? What I probably should have done is... Yeah, there it is. I should have went for the nullifying on the tenotosaurus rex just because I could have... I should have guessed he would have cleansed that. Hum-tum-tum. What to do here? He's not immune to anything. So I think the best thing I can do is go for... Is he going for long defensive strike? Oh, definitive rampage. Oh, I'm glad he did that one. That's good. Yeah, do that. And now we go for this thing. Very rarely do I get Yoshi in my team lineup when I'm doing battles. I don't know why. I think it's just because the game goes, oh, you don't want that. It's a thingy. It's not a very good... It's an epic and comparison to your Unix. You don't want that. Actually, I'll tell you what I want. Now, now, now, now. This is going to be interesting.  Oh, no, it's a lawn. Look at this. Babe, you gave me Babe. Now, this could go well. This could go well. Oh, he's swapping. Oh, a dentist maxima. Hmm. So he's got one already dead. 8,400 health. You're flipping. Get it me. That's great. What's the attack on? Oh, 1,900. That's better than any other dentist maxima I take on in the regular tournament. It's just... Oh, he does go for decelerating. That's good. That's good. What health? 3,000. And what's the armor? 15%. Now, can I kill that? Can I kill that with a tricor or an earlodom? I think I'm going to just have to go for earlodom. I think I may be able to kill it. Oh, that's lucky. Oh, that's lucky. No, you buggy. Okay, okay. I'm going to have to... I'm going to have to go for Cloak now. I'm going to have to go for Cloak because he's going to go for the definite rampage here. Either way, this is doable. It's just a matter of getting lucky because he could... You could get good here and go through my dodge, which he didn't. So that's good. Nothing's going to be quicker than me. So I'm just going to go for my rampage right out the bar. Right out the gate, right off the bar. We're going to combine them both. Oh, okay. Okay. Interesting. So those are the two dinosaurs are dead from Triko. But what... Oh, this thing's quicker. Ooh. Oh, no. Oh, that's not so good. Yeah, he could kill me because he's going to go for instant... Like instant pounce, isn't it? I think it's priority move. Yeah, precise pounce. It's not priority, but yeah, he would definitely do a lot of damage. Ooh. Ooh. Now, what do we do? I'm just going to... Oh, no. No, it's going to be close. All the dinosaurs are almost dead. All those creatures are almost dead. That's fine. Whatever. Do that. That's fine. He might go for... If he's clever. He might go for rampage. There's nothing that can go through the shield. So I'm going to keep on doing this because I think he's going to go for rampage and run. That's what I think he's going to go for. And I'd rather... Oh, no. Again. Ah, interesting. Interesting. All right. Ooh. Now he's going to go for a big one unless I do this. I'm just going to go for the counters. He's going to do it. He's definitely going to do it. I know he is. Is he just going to keep on going? You buggy, you PC bug buggy. You're deliberately doing this. It's because there's a chance that might go for it. I think that... As soon as I do this now, watch. He'll go for rampage and run. He won't do that anymore. Watch. 100%. I bet all my money on it. Everything. Oh, never mind. I lost everything. Oh, well, okay.  What does he have left that can do over 2,000 damage with my 40% armor? I don't know. Maxima can't. I don't... Oh, hold up. Hold up. It might be able to. It might be able to with that decelerating impact, especially if he gets a crit. I think he's killed me. Oh, we did it. Oh, we just... That was the hardest. Wow. Whoo. Whoo. Look at the papers. That... Whoo. I think I definitely could have won that, even if I had to win this one. So 20-yard Dennis Maxima. Oh, I'll take it. I don't care about the other D&A. Just give me our Dennis Maxima. At the moment, that's all I care about. Oh, yes. A little bit closer. And 20 to not direct. Don't really care about it. Moment not really too useful. That one is, however. That's close. I need that one. And the Rhino. And the final battle. Oh, the final battle. 82. It's a three-win against what? Oh. Oh, my God. It's only level 30s. Wow. Okay. Well, the team doesn't seem too crazy, but until I get Magnetator or other Dominus up to Max level, I can't take on anything. No, I can't even do it. Well, there you have it. That's the best we're going to do. So I'll leave it there. Don't forget, link in description below to open up the game in whatever device you have the game on. Make sure to click on that device and it'll open up the game and you'll get 53 bucks from yours truly. I love you. And until next time, I'll see you later. Oh, bye-bye.


Hello and welcome to Ifurem Talk Show. Our guest today is Udit Sharma, Chief Revenue Officer, share chat. Welcome to the show's group. Thanks Kanchana, thanks Ifurem for having me for this discussion. Udit's share chat always remains in the news for right or wrong reasons. How do you, how does it feel, you know, being at the hem of India's largest homegrown social media platform? Kenjin, actually, I would think anything that's worth the news will always remain in use for right or wrong reasons. But, you know, just to answer your question, it's really super exciting times for a platform like share chat and modge, right? What we are seeing is there are two underlying currents in our society right now, right? One is the emergence of new internet users in tier two, tier three towns of this country. These are people who are coming into internet for the very first time and not so hell bent on actually using English as the preferred language, right? They are more comfortable using their own mother tongue, but they definitely want to take full advantage of what internet has to offer. So that's one underlying current that we are seeing right now. And thankfully, share chat is rightly placed to sort of tap into that behavior and take advantage of that and be able to offer a platform that actually speaks the language that people are comfortable in. And that's why, you know, 160 million people are actually coming onto the platform month after month and engaging with it. On the other side, you know, the second thing that's happening is the emergence of short form video, right? So report after report, you know, you will see so many industry reports coming out these days talking about how the younger population of this country for the, I don't know if it's a good thing, but the attention span has actually gone down significantly, right? Depending on which report you're reading, it's running into a few seconds now, right? They claim that it's gone down to like 10 to 12 seconds. What is happening because of that is people actually have higher propensity to spend time on platforms which can give them very engaging, authentic short form video content, right? And that's something that MoJ is really at the forefront of. And that's why, you know, from both share chat and MoJ perspective, I feel totally privileged to be actually part of an ecosystem, which is tapping into those two sort of emerging consumer behaviors in the country right now. Yeah, we're going to complete one year soon, right, at share chat. So if I ask about your major challenges and achievements so far. So, you know, when I prior to this, I was actually in the OTT world, which was a lot more organized, well established, right? I think advertisers, agencies over the last five, six years, they have started understanding the value that that OTT platforms bring to the table. Short form video is still an emerging narrative in our country, right? And that was one of the things that got me excited in first place about joining share chat and MoJ. So for me, I think one of the biggest challenges has been to actually go out in the market and talk to marketeers, brand managers, category managers, industry leaders and help them understand the power of short form video in our country today, right? So that has been a big challenge and that has been the most exciting part as well. Similarly, you would actually hear a lot of brands talking about, you know, how tier two, tier three markets are the next big growth opportunities for them. And for us, because a big chunk of our share chat audiences are actually coming from those cities, those towns, again, talking to the same advertisers and telling them that, hey, if you're looking to, you know, talk about a coconut oil in tier two, tier three town, then you need to be working with us and you need to be understanding the nuances of, you know, what kind of content those people are watching, what gets them excited? What are they interested in? Bring about the contextual nature, right? Bring about the fact that they are actually celebrating a Chhat Pooja or they're celebrating a Ram Navmi, right? Talk about those festivals. So bringing in those nuances and working with brands, I think those have been the more interesting challenges that I have seen. In terms of achievements, you know, we actually just clocked our largest ever revenue month in the history of share chat and watch. So that's something that any revenue leader will take a lot of pride in. But, you know, just moving beyond numbers, establishing a well oiled sales machinery has been something that I've worked on for the last nine months or so that I've been here at share chat. So now we have a very seasoned group of sales folks who are who are basically, you know, taking the share chat and moj narrative out in the market. So I would consider that as as one of the big achievements apart from, you know, some of the revenue goals that we have hit in the in the last few months. Yeah, congratulations on on your revenue, you know, achievements. But I would like you to share, you know, that achievement. I mean, in detail, I mean, what was the revenue and for which month you are talking about for our audience. And number two, I mean, you mentioned about tier two and tier three cities. So are you also going to focus Metro cities, urban urban area in your next phase of growth? Sure. To answer your first question, March was actually that month. So so very recent. And just to just to put in the context, in March, we actually did two x of what we actually did in June of 22. So you can imagine the growth that we have seen, right? As for your other question about what about Metro is what about tier one? So I want to actually call this out right a lot of times, because we have done I would think that we have done a pretty good job of establishing share chat as the market leader in tier two and tier three, people actually tend to forget that tier one in India itself is sort of subdivided into several categories, right? So even in tier one, in absolute terms, if you were to look at the traffic that we go that we get from tier one and share chat, that's about a good 40 45 odd million people every month, right? And this is something that we are again going and and talking to a lot of advertisers about that. Hey, you know, as long as you're thinking of vernaculars, as long as you're thinking of talking to people in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Bhojpuri, Rajasthani, Punjabi, don't just think of this as a tier two, tier three play, you have to think of this as a tier one play as well, right? Because there's a sizable population in tier one towns in metros, that's actually more comfortable using their native language. And in order for you to reach out to them, share chat is a is a tremendous platform for for doing that. So that's why tier one narrative from a share chat perspective is also quite strong. And moj by the way is a totally different story, right? Moj is a more Gen Z platform, which even today gets 45% of the overall traffic from tier one. So so pretty sizable traffic actually comes on the platform from tier one itself. You know, if I talk about the short video market segment. So I think we have got a lot many players and the the the fight could be tough because you know, after the entry of global players, I mean, launch their Instagram, maybe YouTube short. So they are also, you know, maybe eating up into into the space. So how challenging is to sustain in this market? And I'm personally a strong believer of, you know, the fact that the more the competition is, the better it is. In general, for the for the overall ecosystem, right? Today, while we at Moj are at the forefront of you know, what we want to do from a short form video perspective, it's great to have some of our other peers actually now starting to talk about short form video a little more seriously, because ultimately, what we do, what we do want advertisers to realize is that they need to figure out a way of communicating their story in a shorter span. Right? If audiences in this country are actually consuming content, that's 15 to 20 seconds long. It's very tough or it's going to be very tough for a brand to actually be able to engage with the same audience by showing them a 60 second creative, right? And for us at Moj and I assume the same applies for our peers who are trying to now push the short form narrative in the market. It's basically trying to make brands understand that you can actually tell your story within a shorter time frame. And in fact, you should try to do that because that's what the consumers are wanting today. Right? They want the they want the ads to be crisp. They want the ads to be more contextual. I talked about that earlier where you know, we are we are bringing in the finer nuances of a particular region or a particular language or a particular culture to it. And that's something that we do quite well. Right? So so while competition is good, we have also created our own niche. We know what our strengths are. And for us, you know, given everything that we do is from an Indian language perspective first, we understand the nuances of those. So even the creator ecosystem that we have built for share chat and Moj, that creator ecosystem also you would realize is somewhat different from what some of the other players would be doing. Right? And that creator ecosystem can actually add a lot of value to to any brand that's looking to talk to people in a mayorate in a bullen chair in a in a Udupi. Right? So so if you have to actually go to those towns and cities of the country, you will need to speak their language and who better to do it than the influencer who's actually sitting out there, right? And actually speaking the language understands the local culture. I would say not just local culture, but local micro culture, right? Because every town and city as you would also agree in a country like ours, the culture shifts, right? Like as they say, like in south every 100 kilometers that the taste of summer changes, right? Similarly, culture also changes in our in our country. So every pocket has a micro culture and a platform like like ours understands that micro culture really quite well. And that sort of helps us uniquely differentiate our platform from everything else that's out there. With how many advertisers are you currently working with? So in the period of if you were to just take the second half of last year, so I'm talking from July to December, we had close to actually we had 200 plus advertisers who actually work with us on mod itself. And if I were to take that number, if I were to add share chat to it, that number will go upwards of 350. So we have a sizable chunk of advertisers who are actually working very closely, very regularly with us. The more interesting thing, Kanchan, is that these are not just one of associations that we have with advertisers, quite a few of our advertisers are actually doing repeat business with us. They are they're very consistent on the platform, you would actually see the likes of Pepsi, Coke, Amazon, right, all these advertisers we work very closely with. The other interesting thing is that we work with advertisers from across industry verticals, right? A lot of people have asked me this question earlier that hey, is your platform suitable for only new age advertisers? Is it suitable for startups? Is it suitable for tech companies? Is it suitable for FMCG? And what's truly astonishing is that we are not really limited to one or two verticals. But organizations from across different industry verticals are actually working very closely with us. They figured out their own unique ways of working with us. In fact, the strength of the platform also lies in the in the fact that we don't offer just vanilla video display sort of options. Given that we are an India based organization, so we can actually do a lot more innovation around our ad units. And that's why we are able to offer a whole wide range of options to advertisers. And depending on, you know, what your campaign objective is, what your industry is, what kind of innovation you're looking for, what kind of TG you're going after, we can actually do a lot of customization in the plans that we make for for brands. And that's why you would see that advertisers from across verticals from FMCG to handsets to e-commerce players, fintech, all verticals you would actually see live on the platform in some shape or form. This is really interesting. And I mainly asked this question because advertising market has not been so good globally. So how has been the ad market for you, you know, over the past one year in terms of revenue? And what are your expectations for the current fiscal? So, look, it is true, there have been definitely headwinds, right? I think across the board, due to macro factors, advertisers have definitely, they're definitely re-evaluating their budgets and they're trying to figure what is the best ROI that that they can generate from their ad dollars. The good thing about platforms like ours is that, given the fact that we are actually able to make a material difference, and we are actually able to deliver better ROIs. So we continue to be present in the marketing plans of almost all the advertisers that we work with. And that's exactly the reason why we have actually managed to do what we have managed to do in the last year, right? Growing our revenues almost two X of where we were in June of 22, over a period of six months, that sort of a testament to how the platform is actually able to deliver for for advertisers across categories, right? So I'm not completely writing off the headwinds that we have. But at the same time, all the work that's going on on the product on the platform, you know, that has really helped us to actually not only continue to engage with the existing set of advertisers, but actually unlock a lot of new advertisers on the platform as well. And, you know, as far as the current year is concerned, we definitely see a huge upside for us. I think some good groundwork has been done in the last last few months. We have actually done long term deals with quite a few advertisers. And that sort of gives us the confidence that we would be able to go further higher up in terms of our revenue trajectory in the next six months. Would you like to name those advertisers with whom you done the long term deal? Sorry, I'm not at liberty to actually talk about the names tension. No problem. Yeah, yeah. How has been the response, you know, after Mojen, Max Takatak merger? I think that merger was the largest in the history of, you know, happened. Sorry, can you hear me? Yeah, I think maybe there's a little bit of a lag, but I heard your question content. Your question was around the Moj Takatak merger, right? I think what that merger has done is, obviously, it was one of the largest mergers probably in the history of, you know, mergers that have happened in the social media space. What it did, did was it actually sort of consolidated the viewer base that was going after short form video on one platform, right? So for us, I think it was a pretty positive move to be able to now become the undisputed leader in the short form video space, right? That's exactly what that merger has essentially delivered for us. Okay, now my last question. I mean, what are your plans for expansion, you know, in terms of staff, in terms of new features, and maybe new acquisitions? So, new acquisitions, I would leave to our CFO to answer that question, but I can talk to you about how we are looking at expansion in general from a revenue perspective. Look, I think one thing is very clear to us that while we continue to work with the larger advertisers in this country and continue to scale business on that side, we are also very serious about expanding our footprint in terms of the number of advertisers that we want to bring on board because we do believe, like I said, given the wide range of options that are available on the platform and given our ability to actually deliver for the smallest of budgets to the largest of budgets, we don't want any advertiser to be left out of our sort of ecosystem. And that's why one of the big focus areas for us this year is to essentially expand our footprint in what we call as the mid market segment, right? So we are essentially going after SMBs as well. So SMBs as well as these would be the mid tier sort of advertisers, right? So there is there's a top 200 advertisers that that we work very closely with. Now we are actually this year focused on expanding that base to the next 2000 advertisers. And of course, we continue to cater to the SMBs as well, because we have a sales of platform through which a lot of small advertisers, you know, proper partnerships, those sort of organizations are actually able to run campaigns on on board share chat and watch. So so that is one primary thing that we are we're looking to do this year. Apart from that, you know, one of the other big differentiators for us is our ability to work with the influencer creator community that we have and be able to do very interesting hashtag challenges, influencer activations, right? That's something that again is is is you know, unique to our platform. And that's something that we also want to scale further. So I think last year was sort of a PMF establishment for us. Now now that we have actually done it and now that we have advertisers who have trust in our ability to actually deliver ROI on those campaigns, we are now trying to scale up the entire content revenue stream for us as well. So I would say that you know, those are the two sort of big streams that we would be working working on in in this in the current year. Thank you so much. Thank you so much for taking time out and speaking with you for him. Thank you. Thank you so much. Really nice talking to you. Yeah.


So I'm going to talk a little bit about ingredients and culture. So if you talk about like food and culture, like the one thing to keep in mind is we went through many years that no one cooked fresh beets. It just didn't exist. So you grow up eating sliced beets, they're not that nice. I was kind of lucky though. My grandmother is originally from Russia and so I grew up eating a lot of real food too and one of the things I grew up with was borscht. So I kind of had these two ideas about beets. One is that they come out of a can and one is that they turn into this soup that had a lot of meaning to me and what it started out as in our country is just one kind and then you can see in 1824 kinds and then by now we have about 15 kinds. So one of the things that happened in the industrial revolution is that they did more than take away kind of the variety. They took away our memories of everything that had been grown. So we've got this guy who comes to us and he's a seed preservationist. He has a little farm, two acres. He doesn't grow professionally, he just does it for himself and he comes all the time with things that haven't been grown for a hundred years. And so the seed company has 15 kinds of seeds now. That used to be in the turn of the century when everyone was saving their own seeds. There was hundreds of kinds of beets but you wouldn't have known it because people were saving them and they were developing their own flavors individual and now what we have went through a long period during the time that we were aggregating farms. One of the things that happened is the seed company started dropping all of their seeds. So it's now starting to rebuild and we get this is a local California place that's starting to gather again the old varieties of seeds and starting to grow them. The other thing about beets is that they're a crop that's meant to be held over the winter and one of the ways it's held just as a whole storage bead and then the other is that they're preserved in all kinds of ways. So beets have a lot of meaning as a preserved and kind of something that you grow in the summer that you have all year long. So this is a beaten goat cheese salad. So when you start to talk about the meaning of beets in my area, kind of going back to that idea of the pickled beet, this was introduced I don't know probably 30 years ago and somehow if you can kind of put your mind back to the time at which in America there was really no fresh beets being cooked. This was a revelation. So they took something cooked it simply it had this great fresh flavor goat cheese which didn't even exist in the United States until 1977 when Laura Chanel started making it she went to France she came back and she made some cheese because she was just she was so excited about it. She brought it to Chez Panisse Alice Water said, ah it's great I'll take 40 of them and then they were off and running. Now goat cheese is very common in the United States. It's hard to imagine that it only has been produced for like the last 30-35 years. But the beet salad, beaten goat cheese salad, what happened was it became something more than just a salad. It became emblematic of a way of looking at the world and it became something and I don't know how this happened but it's on every menu and so what I did was I went out and I went around to seven different restaurants and I asked for a copy of the menu and so here's a few just this is on one day about a week ago there's a beaten goat cheese salad that's another beaten goat cheese salad this is also a beaten goat cheese salad this is a beet and goat cheese salad they got a little crazy at Zuni they made an arugula beet salad with a goat cheese toast and just you think I'm innocent in this that is my restaurant where there is a beet and goat cheese salad so we've come to this place where this ingredient which has all of these traditional roots in a lot of the cold growing places all over the world it's become meant come to mean something to us in California beyond what it is is a vegetable it's come to mean kind of a way of life and a way of looking at the world and it's become so ubiquitous that it's almost like what do you do how do you even use something that has it's like a word that's been used so much that it doesn't mean anything anymore so I think you know one of the things that we look at is we kind of it's easy to go out and find something new that no one's ever seen before and you get that that shock of the new that rush of discovery how do you create that same rush of discovery through something that is that someone sees every day how do you use something which is so common as a vehicle for self-expression so a qual one of the things people don't come there for the same thing that they have everywhere else we do things a little differently but at the same time what it means to me is that there's an emotional value contained within this very common thing so if I can do something different and then at the same time have contained within it that sense of familiarity that's a pretty exciting combination so I'm going to show three dishes that are different things we do with beats that hopefully a little interesting so this first dish is actually from an event that I did in Finland with a bunch of the guys and the cooking conditions were kind of primitive so this is how I cook the beats for six hours in a big fireplace I've never done this before and I do believe that I actually had a a bet with Claude Bozi for dinner that they wouldn't be done in time for dinner so I think I'll probably stop in London on the way back because they were done in time for dinner but six hours and I put them in containers and then took them out of the containers and then just you can see how hot the fire is kept rotating around rotating around you think they'd be all desiccated inside what we did was repeal them and then just left them warm when we went to serve them we just broke them apart with our hands they were so juicy that our hands were covered we looked like like murderers or something so then the the rest of the dish basically you see it just broken pieces of beet lingonberries half dried by the fire sheep's oral from around the area and the sauce is pretty excited about it's reduced beet juice local berry vinegar wild juniper and then it was thickened with reindeer blood so there's no thickening agent besides the blood so kind of sweet kind of sour kind of savory the beats tasted like nothing had ever tasted before they weren't super smoky they were incredibly sweet basically everything we had in in Finland because I don't know the soil or the the climate were incredibly sweet and I think everyone who had them like they had this ingredient that was so common but it was it was cooked in a way that made it seem kind of new so this is a dish we did earlier this year we're thinking about a dish and to be honest we usually have beets on our menu and because I like them in addition to there's something that people can kind of grab ahold of and so they said why don't we do beet and rose and then I just kind of locked in my mind when we do a beat that looked like a rose but I didn't really know how to do that so this is kind of a video of what this looks like with rose petal ice and aerated yogurt so this is the ice it's just rose petals hot water honey and lemon and we basically take roasted beets the interior we peel and then the petals we make with basically we stamp them out and then slice them everything's done by hand no gel no no binding agent and then we we compress them with reduced beet juice a little bit of rice wine vinegar everyone talks about like like a simple dish like not too many ingredients there's like five ingredients in this dish it's not very simple so the the interior which is the basically created with with a peeler and then these you can see there's different sizes of beet they're dipped in a puree of beet juice reduced beet juice and beet and then we just keep doing this and I think he actually speeded me up because I move much slower than that and you see how tedious it is it is one of most pain in the ass dishes we've ever done and and it's a little bit about to like I got tired of everyone saying how you know I got tired of everyone kind of copying everything and then and then people coming along and saying you can do the same thing aqua for much less money somewhere else and basically there's my way of saying no you can't because no one is going to be stupid enough to do this for a night that we did 60 covers they would take 15 hours of labor to make these and so then we we basically compress it inward and then and then turn it out you see it's like a totally handmade process and then and then you kind of trim around the edges a little bit to figure out like if there's any missing and then a beet puree on the in the bottom of the bowl aerated yogurt on top which is just yogurt with a little bit of salt and lime juice the the rose petal ice goes around it and then the the beet rose in the middle so one of the things I like about and so that's the finished dish so one of the things I like about beets is that you have to do something to them you know you can't some ingredients are wonderful on their own a perfectly ripe piece of fruit fig or something you could just serve and it's perfectly good you can't do that with a beet you got it yeah so it's it's something that actually no matter what you do involves cooking so even a beet and goat cheese salad involves cooking but I think as long as you're going to cook it you might as well cook in a different way so this is a dish where basically is just showing like how we treat the beet is so so simple it's basically just wash it we toss in a little olive oil and salt and roast it with a little bit of water so in that sense there's nothing really particularly special about it but then we do two different sizes we do a smaller size and the larger size the larger size we turn into roasted beet juice and then we make a gel out of it with agar and gelatin and then glaze the top so beet candy that was what someone called it we've called them shiny beets we this is from a dish we did three years ago that I thought would be kind of fun to to do so basically the the beet juice that you get out of the roasted beets is very very little so it's very product intensive and we just hydrate in a little bit of agar boil it and then add gelatin so it's got it's it's stable at room temperature and then also it's got a nice mouth feel and then we line the the slices up on a on a sheet pan one of the things you'll notice is as we're glazing them some of the the gel drips down through and it kind of creates those little things at the bottom so one of my cooks said they look kind of like gummy beets and then I thought well why not make gummy beets and so so that kind of will lead to the next thing and then basically this which is this is kind of the finished dish it's a little oil pureed with kind of a fermented spice mix that we make and we serve it's a little bit sweet so we serve it in between meat course and the and the desserts where the cheese would normally go and then this is my pastry chef so this is the recipe is he started a week ago and I think on a second day I said well let's make gummy bears out of roasted beet juice and he didn't like run away so I'm pretty happy about that and not only that the the recipe is pretty amazing so there's three kinds and then because we have a bunch of cooks here I thought maybe you'd want the recipe so the interesting thing about this is kind of talking about like the meaning of food and and and kind of the the emotion that comes along with it so I grew up with gummy bears and then obviously it's kind of a culturally common thing and Scandinavia and what I grew up with is like I went and had one it was something about that chew and the way it breaks down in the mouth we wanted to create but we didn't want to have it's just something that was we don't want to have something to taste it a little bit more interesting and in order to do that we use slow set pectin which allows us to cook it and then at the end season it a little bit so if you think about it it's just basically a patefui and patefui's are usually kind of boring because you cook it out you pour it at 104 degrees and that's it well in this case you know it's a this recipe is basically something you can do to basically pour it into anything and if you vary the amount of pectin and and gelatin then you can get something a lot more yielding but we wanted something kind of chewy so basically it's just the roasted beet juice the the gelatin bloomed everything dispersed into a cook 201 pour it out into the molds molds are dusted with corn starch we put some corn starch on top freeze it pop it out and then we let it sit at room temperature a little while we were making these like right up until I think about four hours before my plane took off so what you're getting is very much a beta version I think the the texture is great and I think the probably the seasoning we're still kind of working on it a little bit but it seemed like something that's kind of fun and I love the rustling of all of the the plastic and so I think there's something kind of awesome too about going from that to what you're eating now so thank you thank you very much


Okay so in my defense you asked for this. Hello friends welcome back to my channel my name is Megan if you're new here and you asked for this. I'm not taking any responsibility no one can hate on me. Okay we're roasting bookshelves again. Yes! Yes! I did this video a couple months ago and I didn't get around to everyone's bookshelves not everyone knew that I'd done it and a lot of you asked for me to do it again. Now why you ask me to do it again when I don't think I'm actually very good at this because I don't like being mean. I don't know but it seems you like me attempting to be mean. So I asked again and you guys have sent in some of your bookshelves and I'm gonna roast them to death. Again just to disclaimer imagine I'm pretending to be Charpe. Queen Charpe herself from her school. Like imagine I'm trying to put on a mean girl persona. I don't necessarily fully mean with my chest everything I'm gonna say but I'm gonna roast you regardless. Okay wow I absolutely love every time I film my ex-boyfriend who's gonna play really loud music. Okay if you can hear it we're just gonna pretend it's not there. Like I think it can never film otherwise. Okay let's just get into roasting the bookshelves. Oh I need to record my screen what am I doing? I'm like unprepared. Ava my living room shelves and my home office uh stack. I will say I feel like there's a poor attempt at a rainbow show. Like the red going into the yellow is good and then we kind of just lose it. We kind of go that's enough. That's enough. I've had enough of that. I do like these kind of shelves. When I have my own place and I can have books everywhere not just like that corner behind me I think I will get something like that because I do like it. The brown shelves are my physical tbr but leaning. I don't call that leaning. I think that's falling Ava. I'm falling again. The album's amazing song to song. I can't stress it enough. That's like two seconds away from falling on the floor. That shelf behind me the half one I have there was almost falling down. It was leaning quite a lot and I was getting scared because I have cats like it could fall on the cats. So I had to move all my books to the back a bit which I hate. I want books to be at the front but we must do it to save cat lives. Now trying a shelf this is unique. This is unique. I will say that. I don't understand the turnaround ones. I know it's the aesthetic but is that your unread ones but then how do you like remember? I mean I suppose I can't talk because I have a lot of books wrapped up but then how do you remember what books you have because I start to forget the books that I have wrapped up like out of sight out of minds. I don't like it when people turn around their unread books because surely then you're not thinking about how you want to read them. My only issue with shelves like these or like funny shaped shelves I mean Kendra's out here saying I love that triangular shelf. Kendra I remember your coffin one. My only problem with shelves like these is that you I don't feel like you can really fit. Like it's not on maximizing space. In case you haven't noticed I'm weird. I'm a weirdo. I don't fit in. For the like a shelf size for book to shelf size because you end up having space where it's difficult to fit books in so that's my only qualm with those. Mel what can I say about you Mel? I don't like these open side shelves. Again I don't like them because I want to cram and fit as much in as possible and it makes it really really hard to do that unless you end kind of each side with empty space or like you end them with these sideways stacks. I want to like pack everything in. I want my books to feel like cozy. I've become obsessed with the fitness martial dance videos and I do the Santa tell me one. It's in my playlist I do and he goes there's a point where he goes get cosy. It always makes me up. I don't know why. It's like usually just goes get cosy but then on that one he goes get cosy. It just makes me up. Anyway a profound silence has entered the chat. Unrelated but I want my books to feel cosy and they can't if they can't be packed in. Yes I do the colouring in my bookshelf. What do you mean the colouring? Oh they're turning it around. Danielle Danielle the whole bookshelf. The whole shelves are turned around. There's like barely any books facing forward compared to the ones that are turned around. I don't get this because I want to be I want to be constantly reminded of the books I have to read.  So I don't like this and Danielle why would you come up in here with me like this? The Funko Pops? The Funko Pops? I mean not the Funko Pops not not the Twilight seen it. Yes but not funny ha ha funny weird. You open sides again we're encountering a new issue. This is a new issue. What was the Funko Pops last time? This time it's the open sided shelves. I like how you've grouped them together. Kind of rainbowy but not like obtusely rainbowy. I would say for this size collection of books I do like this. I like a good mug with book mugs in that's how I store mine. Make me cry Anna um I mean this isn't the worst of the worst but I don't like movie versions or TV show versions of books. You have two copies of Once Upon a Broken Heart perhaps three because that could be it as well. Interesting Anna that's an interesting choice. You're definitely a fairy-lute girlie you said listen I represent fairy-lute. I need to sneeze.  Jeez Louise. That's quite dramatic. There's not much I can critique here. I'm gonna be honest I quite like this. I like your mix of sideways stacking. I like how you often have similar heights grouped together. Hamilton I'll name him Hamilton anyway. Here's the thing I have fake plans on my bookshelves. That's great but like real plants and I think these are real kind of stress me out because I don't want soil and dirt and like water on my book it just like it feels it feels like a lot of possibility for disaster. I don't want soil on my books like I don't want that so I like fake plants on shelves. I think put your real plants everywhere else but books come on now and I don't like brown shelves we know that we know that. Listen if it's all you have access to because I have bookshelves well I don't have them but my family has brown shelves next door. I just I think I just don't like them. I'm jealous that you seem to have read The Man Who Died twice before me that just seems unfair. I feel like no one should have read it before me but here we are me still not having read it.  I know there's an opinion of some people that we should do that and it should always just be sign up but I think it lacks variety. I want to see shapes I want to see like different levels I want to see it's a work of art I want to see variety I want to be I want us to be exciting and this is fine. I'm not a big fan of the square blocks but I just feel like we need some sideways stacking to shake shake it up a bit at least there's no fun go pups listen but there there is other stuff and you know what I what was that okay James see this is what I'm talking about I love the few sideways with a bigger one on top I love that I want listen you've got good this is what I want I want the variety and you'll give me wait not the skulls bring back the fun go pups bring back the fun go pups is that just a stick that I mean listen the accessories are eccentric but I will say I do really like your way of laying out the books face out side stack side stack with another one on top face out like that is my shit I really really like that so well done there but the Laura I just generally don't understand why you would come to me with this like you know I'm gonna be mad at you if you know how I feel why would you say that like you put me in such an uncomfortable situation like you know I'm not happy how many one two Jesus Christ there everywhere one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve there's at least 12 fun go pups this one shelf do we go to the Jesus Christ Jesus Christ I just hate you I will say I like this little pink corner down here wow I don't like rainbow shells but I like pink books together maybe all bookspun should be pink let's think about that publishing let's think about that and we have a lot of face outs like I feel like we could have I mean if you love the series I tend to just put one face out even if I love the series like strange case like with daughter European travel and monsters gentlemen I prefer European travel but I put strange case out because it's the first book I feel like in the series I only put one face out there's a lot of face outs and I feel like we need perhaps a few less that would be my one critique okay we have like little half shelves here like small short shelves oh the fucking funko pops it's like I can't escape them can someone please explain to me in the comments why like why do so many of you like them I just want to be I just what's the appeal I don't understand the appeal the only thing that stresses me about this is it seems there's not many places a hard back could go I feel like this is like paperback only shells and that stresses me out I can't have any of my shelves like I could have I thought about adding in another shelf to my bookshelves but then I'd have like a few shelves that couldn't fit a hard back so on and that stresses me out like that really trusts me out do my worst again I'm not because of the brown shells I'm not gonna lie this one upsets me security can you please escort this lady over here I mean there's nothing you can do with that because of the size of the book but it just upsets me to my core I feel like though you've made a good amount you've made a good use of the space that we have here I do I actually quite like these I feel like that it's a cute little little corner Jesus Christ this isn't a corner this is guys we need to leave it in the past listen I understand the nostalgia as much as anyone else I was the twilight girl but not the Robert Pattinson Jane Queen Jane though I see that's Jane looks like Jane um that's just I mean moving on Rachel Rachel I will say other than that I really like this section of the shelf I feel like that goes really well together you have a lot of fucking books oh my god I mean I said bring back the Funko Pops and Rachel said here you go uh I heard you wanted Funko Pops here you go like don't don't worry hopefully my dog makes up for my broken life the dog says they're using me again bitch they're using me they're using my cuteness for their failures I quite like this again I do like a good like is this Greek moment Greek a little little bust on the shelves I do like oh my god this is cute see this is where I can actually like smaller shelves I like these you guys have a thing for like skeletons though it seems I've seen a lot of skeletons I love fucking Funko Pops I mean like listen I've just got to get over it like I've got to get over it I like these grouping of colors here I think that looks cute I think that looks really cute actually it's a little like office I think that looks very I really like it I really really like it it's a mess and nothing's in order or there are also weird books that my boyfriends ignore them here shit drag her, slay her, read her, sipping on that truthie hunty see that's a get out because any books that I don't think belong could just be blamed on the boyfriend I mean listen the books scattered around everywhere it is an interesting choice the open side I feel like we'd escape them for a bit but they're fucking back they're fucking back but I do like the levels here again you guys get what I want I want the levels I feel like it looks cute I will never roast anyone for having blank space on the shelves because like how are we supposed to live right like people want us to have full shelves all the time but then when you read your own books your shelves are full so sometimes you need a bit of blank space and I'll write your name no sometimes you need a bit of blank space to grow for the future I'll never roast anyone for that if I roasted anyone last time for that I extract my words not waiting three months the shelves and thinking the furniture company has scammed you oh my god then I can't roast you it's not your fault I mean come on now these are cute Jordan I like them oh listen two of the most gorgeous editions of anything I've ever owned in my life need to read them both still now I quite like these again I don't you know I don't mind the shelf height in this context this stresses me out here though I feel like we've already got a space to pay back so it does stress me out and funko pops and whatever these but I'm willing to look past the funko pops now I mean like I just have to final one no one ever says anything about my shelves right let's go well the strange like box sizes is a little bit of a choice it's a little bit it's a little bit of a choice that's interesting you seem like a rainbow girly and I'm just not a rainbow girly like we can just be different girlies there's a lot of tailor hmm I won't dig at Taylor Swift I won't but in my opinion the worst Taylor Swift eras are I think this is red maybe reputation lover folklore and evermore and the old Taylor stuff are the best feel listen speak now never listen to any of her other albums again until folklore I did listen to them I didn't like them so I'm questioning your tailor taste not your book taste that your tailor taste yes we've got a little bit of representation for folklore but I mean like lover that big interesting so there we have everyone that is me roasting your bookshelves again I hope I did an okay job it always feels like a fever dream like I come out of filming these and I'm like whoa what just happened but
