It's on set list dot FM. That's like the holy grail.  Let me just record this here recording in progress Live on the metal voice. Wow. What a night We had to a shake and throw some water on Stefan to get him out of bed to talk about what happened last night in Montreal, Canada, Quebec At the Olympic Stadium night one of Metallica No repeat weekend guys. What's going on bon matin Stefan? Bon matin Perrin and Jimmy and if the hundred thousand fans are of tickets for the weekend Boy, that was ah, you know, it's not just a concert. Hey, we went to a metal show. No, no this was an event an event and Look, this is different from the metal shows The three of us are custom because it's no longer, you know One of those Intimate bands were accustomed to one of those underground. It is the biggest name in heavy metal after 40 years You can't deny that. This is a band. We've always loved and last night musically Wait pause. I want you to pause right there. We're gonna get to that right in like in a few minutes Let's just build this up We had sword. We had mammoth. We had pantera and then of course metallica You know a headlining. So I'm not sure if you were there Stefan for sword That was a little earlier in the day. So Perrin just give us like a 30 seconds of a sword and what was that like? Well, first of all, so obviously there's tailgate parties at every show on this north american tour Usually local bands overkill and pronged in new york Sword and anonymous are here in montreal You know, so i'm a big sword fan You know friendly with rick and then the guys for a long time a big supporter So I wanted to get there early and I was able to manage myself so I could get there early I thought there's gonna be me and 100 200 people there because you know, it's a friday afternoon people are still working whatever is going on I get there and there must have been 2000 people there To see sword if you kind of look at some of the pictures The band's management took a great picture from the stage and the entire Esplanade and walkway of the olympic stadium was filled. So first of all I'm just really really proud of the guys and really really proud that montreal showed up to support a local band And I think we've talked about sword enough on this show and our followers know the band pretty well They were fantastic and when we saw them at the corona theater In january, you know, they were just starting the tour. They're always well rehearsed. So they were good But now that they've been, you know, doing a fair amount of dates Around cobec in different places for the last six months in support of the new record They were just really really on and they were clearly happy to be playing in front of a big crowd And kind of they took it as warming up for metallica and they certainly warmed up the crowd for metallica So it was one of the tick one of the major highlights of the of the day and that was at 230 Just everybody knows that was at 230 stafan after sword Mammoth comes on were you there for mammoth because they're coming on at six a lot of people were there So a lot of people weren't did you see mammoth? I uh, I arrived about halfway through mammoth I mean, I finished work at 5 30 and I did my Clark Kent thing and rusted the stadium And but the Look I'm gonna be perfectly honest with you mammoth is not my favorite band. I Look, I don't like it. I gave it a bad review last year When I saw them in concert last night, I thought oh, okay, usually a concert By an artist is what does it for me more than the record? Right sometimes the flaw in the record in the recording in the approach is easily made up once the band hit the stage What I saw yesterday is Uh, is wolfie van halen Well in control of his craft Well in control of his stage presence. I mean he does have experience. He started at 17 on stage with with his dad and uncle But The sound was so bad So bad for more. I was section 102 in the lower bowl that I just couldn't make up the songs And I couldn't make up the guitar solos. I it sounded like That's actually that's a very good. That's a very good imitation of what it sounded like Oh And and after like I was disappointed I'm looking forward for so at the core at the corona this fall But last night was not the time to discover Mammoth I It was just not the time the place was full the reception was great But the sound it was the sound of an opening act unfortunately And put it at the olympic stadium, which is which sounds terrible under the best circumstances Uh, it as far as I'm concerned mammoth did not come through Gotcha. All right. So parent. Okay.  You saw a sword You walk in how many people were there for mammoth? Would you say it was 50 capacity 75 capacity? Uh, you know, look, I would say there was 50 capacity watching the band And another 25 to 30 out in the hallway trying to get a t-shirt trying to get food Kind of, you know, you got to prepare when you go to a show like this So I mean there's choices to make right? Do I watch? Do I try and discover a new band that I might be interested in opening or do I want to make sure? I've eaten drank gone to the bathroom got in my t-shirt because I don't want to miss any of pantera And I don't want to miss any of metallica. So I would say about half the crowd watched mammoth I think the most the biggest fans were probably down in the pits right in front of where they were playing I think everyone else was kind of in the stands Again, it was the stephands point. It was so hard to hear them You could be in the stands and hear any number of conversations going on around you better than you can hear the band and that's just An opening act in a stadium show. You don't have full stage. You don't have full lights. You don't have full And I think and here's another point I want to ask you There's there's daylight and then there's night with lights Did the daylight sort of affect the performance because it was so bright That you know, he kind of doesn't work in his favor, especially at such a distance See sword was during the day, right? And it's a little more up and close because it's sort of outside of the stadium But because of the distance because of the daylight did that affect the sort of the performance? from a visual perspective Well, I'll I'll start first because look I'm going to get to the heart of my issue with the stage Because I cannot go around this The staging Like I get the concept for Metallica But it did not work for Wolfie or Pantera because It is so humongous You can't follow What's on stage The rounded towers don't give you an idea of where the person is on stage Add the fact that the daylight is on still Add the fact that half the people around you are just chatting among themselves The thing I hate the most about concerts now is people chatting like shut the fuck up Don't spend the money to go to a concert. If all you're gonna do is talk And so you put that all together and you find yourself Underwhelmed You know, you're not focused no matter how much you want you're not focused on the artist And I think Wolfgang Unfortunately Was in a lose lose situation trying to grab attention On a stage that it's hard to focus on Look, I'll just say the only good thing in this for Wolfgang is that Probably like 35 or 40,000 people are now maybe aware of the his band and the name If they didn't know what was going on before and they're playing a 900 cedar here in november And you know, if you go about how to build brand awareness and build your career It's not a bad move just in terms of creating awareness But it's obviously not the venue to experience a new band and you know, even faith no more was a more developed band When they opened from italica and guns and roses at the stadium in 92 And they went over terribly as well because they were just lost I saw the black crows at c&e stadium in toronto with metallica aerosmith and warrant And I think it was an 89 or 90 And they were a new band and it wasn't a venue to see them either But if you had seen them down the street at rock and roll heaven, I guarantee you it would have been fantastic So I have no doubt that wolfie with nita strauss will do some great stuff at the now theater beamfield in november But this wasn't no matter who The first band was going to be they were going to be the sacrificial lamb And wolfgang was the sacrificial lamb and ice nine kills will be the sacrificial lamb tomorrow I don't even think i'm going to go watch that to be honest with you All right, so let's let's go to the stage itself though. Stefan talked about the stage Um Actually, sorry, let's go to pantera first So now pantera hits the stage the the nice thing about pantera was They started off with the daylight as it sort of transitioned into the night So things kind of got a little more dynamic and intense As their their performance You know sort of progressed What I saw in terms of the and this is when I arrived by the way right before pantera went on What I saw was a huge reaction from Maybe 40 to 50 000 people at the time And you know, I was I was completely impressed that a band of Sort of like I would call them an arena band was so well received in a stadium So, uh, Stefan, what are your sort of your thoughts about pantera? The sound was again a massive problem Because the bite of the guitar work Just in pantera sound in general was lost in that audio in the olympic stadium And you know, we're not speaking about all stadiums We're just talking about specifically about the munch y'all olympic stadium because we don't know What the sound is like everywhere else Well, you you can't fight Of the olympic stadium no matter how great And we'll get to that later no matter how great your sound system is And the technology has improved a lot Since the stadium first opened for concerts with pink floyd in 77 That's true and uh But unfortunately You cannot defy the science of acoustics It's reverberating you got this low end rumble Echo there is so much echo so, uh Once again pantera suffered immensely Because of that and what's Like people understand the the the politics of of of concerts is that The main artist gets All the sound and all the control over sound And opening acts are allowed less power Which they compensate by making it louder, right two different things being loud Powerful two different things try it on your 20 dollar sound system Versus your 2 000 dollar sound system, you'll know what i'm talking about and so That for me Sacrific like pantera was also a sacrificial lamb to Metallica, I find that A double headliner so you do not Cut down on the power for the for the other band on the set But pantera got the sound of an opening band And it affected The enjoyment of the show Terribly i'm not a huge Pantera fan. I this is a band I skipped During my you know while I was a family man away from the scene, but Yeah, I thought This is not the legend First of all, well, we'll get to that later. Well, I'm gonna get to that right after what you're gonna say like but the fact is for A pantera fan who had never seen them before and all of that. He didn't care about the short The the sound shortfall. I'm sure it was a great show You know what? Okay, so let's talk about hold on. We're gonna talk about pantera 2.0 now. Okay parent um charlie and zach for to me charlie and zach you could not pick two better artists musicians To replace the brothers, right? Absolutely the these guys charlie to me. He could you could put him in any major band He will fit like a glove not only is he a phenomenal drummer. He could play guitar. He can write music zack wild We know same thing these guys are You know, these guys are probably the best of the best in what they do Putting them in pantera. I thought it was wow, man, this is like Enhanced pantera. This is pantera 2.0 and all those people that say that it's not pantera. I know stefan saying that but To me, I thought this was an improved I hate to say that I know people can hate me for this, but I think it was an improved pantera parent. What are your thoughts? I i'm only a casual pantera fan or maybe casual a bit more than that I was blown away by the performance yesterday blown away and you know the sound of the stadium and the echo didn't bother me And I do want to say we were sitting in three different places and in a building like that You can have a different sonic experience in different places It won't be good anywhere, but there will be better moments and worse moments. So pantera didn't have full pa And the echo bothered me a bit, but I don't think the sound took away from their performance too much I think I agree that Zach and charlie are such pros like if you would have just taken phil anselmo and rex brown And taken two unknowns, you know, and that's the way they wanted the interview. It would not work Zach while different from uh darrell abbott Has such a reverence for dinebag darrell.  He knows his job here is to stay in the background and play the parts And he does it so well that I thought the bands sounded great They left me wanting to hope they come back next year headlining and I want to see them headline even though I'm only a casual fan and You know, sometimes the vibe and the audience makes the show also And there was just so much excitement when pantera came on stage Pantera has not played in this city in a very long time now because even on their last couple of albums, right? they were very big for For uh cowboys from hell vulgar display of power and far beyond driven But then on their later albums, which did okay in the states They played here, but they didn't play here as extensively as they did in the u.s So there was a built up demand For people who saw pantera a long time ago who really wanted to welcome them back and there were also kids there You'll remember there was a moment in the show where phil said hey Who for who is this the first pantera show and a lot of people went nuts Well, you heard that I didn't know what he was saying the whole time all I heard was I heard it well where I was and there were a lot of kids around me who were like excited to see pantera So everyone understands this isn't the classic version of pantera But it's the best possible version of pantera you can get in 2023. I agree. You know, I'm not even a pantera fan I'm not even a pantera fan like you guys But I saw that They've elevated what pantera is with the loss of what they had they brought it back up again I'm gonna tell you I'm worried about If I was a big black label society or anthrax fan I would worry about the future plans a very very much so because there's no doubts to me That zach and charlie are are doing quite well Doing these stadium shows but also on off nights like they're in toronto tonight doing a full Kind of most an amphitheater big show So There there is gold in them to our hills So I think I think based on what I saw yesterday I think this version of pantera. I don't know if they'll record new material Maybe down the road, but even if they didn't I think there's a good two more years of touring They could do with this. Oh boy, and they're still they're all young enough. That's the thing Okay, let's let's flip over to distance. So okay the olympic stadium as everybody knows it's a big dome like most stadiums We were all at the 100 levels, which means we were on the first sort of level. We were not on the floor We are on the first level so stafan There the the band was this size literally literally like each member was walking around if anybody could figure that out This size we're not even high, you know, we're low now. We're low We're not on the floor if the floor would be this much, but we're like this much Did it bother you? Even if it was a it was a round stage did the distance bother you like did you find yourself looking more at the the the sort of the big screens Or more of what's going on on stage because I was just looking at the screens the whole time I it's kind of like I was watching a video the whole time Stefan what are your thoughts on the distance of a stadium and now we're talking about, you know, just in general Yeah, I've seen my share of stadium shows in my life and unfortunately This type of setup a 360 stage First of all, I've never been a fan of 360 stage because the band is never focused on the audience It's focused on parts of the audience they turn around And you're never watching a full band That's my issue to start with all right and yesterday I was in a lower bowl I was trying to pay attention to those circular Screens, yeah, could you all picture those again? Yeah, what these screens Could not do Is give a real impression of what was going on stage? Like normally, you know, you're you're at a stadium show and there's always this giant screen behind the band It focuses on You know the singer on the guitars and all of that, but you know where they are With the last night's concept is yes, you can watch the band on the giant screens But you do not know where they are on the stage I mean, I had one of those columns tower columns completely blocking the the left microphone, which means I missed I missed a lot by a quarter of the show. I just couldn't see the end of rest were tiny little dots It didn't do it for me. It did not do it for me and I had what are considered premium seats So no, I think that The only people who got a great view were those in the middle in that pit in the middle At five hundred dollars a seat or whatever it was, right? Yeah, but the floor I think was the place to be but From my perspective interesting concept, but uh, no, I I'd like to have my band in front of me Flipping parent flipping to merch. Okay. Just so everybody I have some pictures of merch. I'll show everyone There you go. What did you think of the merch overall? I mean, there was many many merch stands It wasn't as bad the lineups because I went in between songs to look at the merch Um, what did you think about it was it too much? I don't have my shirts because they're in the wash But what did you think of the yellow the yellow as the concept the main concept of most of the shirts Well, again, so this comes to my retail and my branding background But you know, I love the fact that metallica have kind of expropriated the color yellow for this album and touring cycle and I think it's a really smart thing that That they've done that they've just they've you can just tell with the 72 seasons album Whether it's musically or artistically and I when I say artistically I mean like creative arts They've just they have a theme the album cover is yellow and black Uh, you know, you were able to buy yellow and black splattered vinyl posters and Pretty much most of the merchandise Has some combination of yellow and black maybe some white and I think that's a good idea I think I think it's really cool that they've kind of established the 72 seasons Metallica sub brand as you know, if we had the black album back then we have the black and yellow album now So I I kind of like what they've done You know too much yellow isn't for me But I think and I kind of like that it's you know, if I look at most of the t-shirts in my collection Most of them are black with white or black with red or black of something I can't say other than a striper shirt. I have from the old days. Striper was on to something. That's what we're saying I don't have too much black. I don't have too much black and yellow So I kind of like that and look I I always like when there's a lot of options Metallica probably had about 12 at least if not more t-shirt options, you know one thing I didn't like about the merch Lena my wife is a big pantera fan and They had 14 boots around the stadium people were complaining that they couldn't get merch by the way You gotta do your research if enko communicated Where the merch boots would be there were 14 boots around the stadium And if you went to a booth in the basement or off to the sides, there was no weight for merch But if you wanted a pantera or a mammoth shirt, they only had them on sale And that's also the stephands point about being part of an opening act You could only get pantera or mammoth merch at one stand the main one when you came in main one Yeah, the other 15 stands because so lina bought a pantera. I knew this. I knew this. I just know how it works So I took lina there and you do your homework.  You're a good boy A for excellent, but I will say lina must have got stopped in the hallway 10 I'm like I'm like that kind of guy. I didn't even know where my seat was for the first 20 minutes I'm a I'm a VP director of operations in my regular life. So I don't do anything without a plan I don't wake up in the morning for it to do the Stefan Stefan Yeah, I'm gonna pause you right there parent. Hold on Stefan and it's sort of again. It goes segues into this Before we get into metallica Attention to detail what I was really blown away is the attention to detail which goes into the yellow which goes into You know welcome to the olympic stadium in yellow and there's metallica and and the security guys had all this yellow everything was sort of Planned perfectly attention to detail What'd you think about even even those big sort of a tv screens, right? They had like kewbek sort of pictures. They didn't just have generic pictures They had kewbek munch it all pictures back in the day Everything was detail so much detail. What'd you think about that? It was well done.  They know their city. They know their fans You know, I'm sure they did the same thing in the east rudderford new jersey a couple of weeks ago And they'll do the same at the next venue. The fact is Metallica is known for their proximity to their fans in the cities where they built their career Look the signs the yellow and all of that for me. It's it's all marketing. They have an album to sell They have a tour to sell merchandise Concept and the more you splash it everywhere the more you will Sell it. I did not buy it because I refused to pay 65 dollars for a t-shirt but um, I told to get the The concept it's it's a band that can afford to do that canister a lot a lot of bands don't do that This is very detailed, but let's get into metallica, right? Let's get into metallica. Let's I mean, that's what the whole show's about Anyways, yeah, we're a half hour in we haven't talked about All right, but you got to build it up you got to build it up All right, let's go metallica. I mean, you know quick thoughts parent I mean, there's a lot of things here. There's distance. There's sound. There's set list Just 30 seconds of your overall impressions of let's just go quickly your overall impressions of metallica's performance last night Uh, I had a great time. Okay, so i'm not saying great performance great venue I'm saying I had a great time. I had a great time because I've been a metallica fan since 1980s Well since the beginning I first saw them at the verdana auditorium in 1986 I also enjoy unlike other people their current music. I'm not saying it's as good as their early music But I enjoy it So I really appreciate when a band puts together a tour or a set list where I can hear the hits I can hear deep cuts and hearing Lepper messiah and orion almost brought tears to my eyes Wow, but at the same time I like when I can hear new songs And what I love is there was a lot of 20 year olds sitting around me and they were singing the word singing the words to 72 seasons and uh and uh Pair and pair and just to interject here You just interject I this is what I saw when they were playing the classic albums will call them the ones the first five or plus black right or with black Everybody was you know pump fist pump and standing up and as soon as they played the new stuff Everybody sat down and went for a beer. So but jimmy you were in a section that only went on sale yesterday You had casual fans in your section. I will say and you know what hold on hold on hold on I moved around So what I did is I sat there and then I started moving around the whole stadium Just to get the different sound a different angle just to get a different perspective But I was really impressed jimmy. I'm telling you in my section. I saw the same thing There were younger fans around me who clearly Weren't born when I saw Metallica at for done. Yeah. Yeah, and and they were singing If darkness had a son, they were singing for 72 seasons Wrath of man. They were singing You know and and I think they didn't know what leper messiah was but they knew 72 seasons So it was I also find concerts to be interesting cultural experiences. Just I like observing who's around me and how old they are and what they what they seem to be You know a father and son in front of me and you can tell one was into the new one was into the old And it was a discovery moment for the young guy. So Anyway, I had a great time My expectations in a stadium are are measured. I was I was expecting bad sound and I got bad sound I actually liked I thought the big video towers they had was new and different. We haven't seen a lot of bands do that I will say the place to be for a stadium show is on the floor But when I'm going at 2 30 in the afternoon when I'm going with my wife I need a reserved seat if I was going alone if I was going with a buddy Maybe I would have gone for a floor seat because in a stadium and it's a known thing Uh, I saw ecdc twice on the floor at the olympic stadium last year in toronto I saw the stadium tour of motley crew and deff leopard and poison on the floor If you want a better experience for a stadium show, you've got to be on the floor, but that aside Those were my expectations. Anyway, I enjoyed watching so you overall enjoyed the experience despite the poor audio and the distance I had a great time. I can't wait until tomorrow to see part two of the seven Wow, you even you want it. You're even looking forward to tomorrow I heard people say they're they're not looking forward to tomorrow But go ahead stafan. Give us your overall summary of your experience last night Okay, after wolfgang and after Pantera I was starting to regret my choice of coming On both nights. Okay Uh, I got a comp last night at the last minute And I was not planning to go until uh sunday night uh when the lights turned off and we got the You know ecstasy of gold intro All of a sudden my body and my mind started transforming synopsis in his brain started going The it was it was just starting to Oh my god, maybe I will enjoy my night after all And then as soon as they hit the stage creeping death Like forget everything forget about all the bad press on metallica forget about They're too old. No, no, no That was my band the band. I first saw opening for wasp in 1985 at the spectrum They were back and I loved it. I loved it and Creeping death is one of their most Powerful meaningful songs when you have 60,000 people with her fist in the air Die, die, die, die by my hand For me It's it's when you see that metallica is in pure communication Would it would it's fan base? This is where you capture them and you keep them to the end And I find that once again metallica did it and and That's the other thing the set list I I sort of Yeah, I looked at what was done in other CDs where they've performed so far and Okay, I tried to go with an open mind. Where are they going to go with this set list? Uh, I was actually a bit disappointed. They only played three songs from 72 seasons, I think But hey, there's still tomorrow night because I do like the new album, I think it's the best they've done in many years The new songs performed at concert. I thought were fantastic. There was this right amount of You know getting the new song getting in the spirit of the new song, but also They do some jamming.  They expand they You know, uh, I was watching Kirk Hammett. I was most fascinated by Kirk last night and He takes control of the songs a lot more than we give him credit for on stage and I thought that All the songs without exceptions went along very well. Yeah, some people did sit down in my section But never for long. I stood up for most of the show uh And when they got into like leper messiah and oh my god fate to black fate to black You know, don't forget fate to black is that song that they were playing in 1992 at the stadium when when uh James You know when a fire the the the the firework went off and They had to send to stop the show suddenly So they hear that song at the stadium. No fireworks this time Uh, and they played it so well I thought oh my god. These guys are taking me back right back to the spectrum and uh for me Fate to black was a highlight My other highlight orion I just like orion way. We I think it's the greatest song they ever done It's funny because hard wire to sub destruction. I I thought was a lesser metallica song That did okay, but when they played it last night apparently a tour debut Uh, it went across perfectly perfectly. I thought it was the best performance ever and following up with fuel was even Smarter like they did the two songs. They're the post black album.  I would not have heard it on sunday closing the show with master of puppets Was essential you cannot have a metallica show without master of puppets And I feel sorry for those who will only see it sunday because they won't get it and stephan Let me say most shows on this tour They've been closing one show of seek and destroy and one show of master of puppets. It's rare They've been played the same night So a big question to ask for sunday is what will be the big moment to close the show on sunday Sandman if it's it might be or they could enter they could open event their sandman for all we know Guys, I don't want to be that I don't want to rain on everybody's parade, but I'm gonna say it, you know, I was disappointed Like I love metallica I love the set list. I truly love the set list I thought it was a great set list But because the audio was so poor and again, I'm just speaking for the olympic stadium here I can't speak what happened in new jersey what happened in sweden or wherever any other place in the world The audio was so poor The distance was so far And I ended up watching a tv screen, which I couldn't even really hear with songs or metal what When you have this much muddy Muddy sound in the the sort of the the performance it takes away from the spirit of metal for me The distance is completely unmetal for me I think metal is meant to be played either in an arena or in a theater or in a small club I don't know I and this It just didn't do it for me. I didn't they're playing creeping death. I don't even know what part they're at I don't even know what part they're at So what I did is I started moving around the stadium and yeah sound was a little bit better in different sections But I don't know it because of the poor sound of the olympic stadium It just took away the the balloon deflated very quickly for me And I do love metallica and I do love the band and I thought they looked like they're performing great It's just once the audio sucks It's kind of like having a new album and the audio is so poor on that new album. You're like, uh, you're so turned off That's how I felt I wouldn't I wouldn't go to sunday. I wouldn't go to sunday But then again, it's just i'm one out of 55,000 people and people love the performance People love being there. So I'm in the minority here. I'm in the minority look, uh jimmy This is what's disappointing about the stadium is that the sound quality varies according to where you are Where I was in section 102 lower bowl The section the sound that sucked so much with the opening acts suddenly became grandiose powerful and directed at me once metallica hit the stage but You know Because the sound was powerful and let's face it metallica does have a sound system that is Way above And many other acts who do stadium shows So the quality of their sound system sort of made up For some of the flaws from the olympic stadium But all you had to do is wait for a quieter moment Or just banter from the stage to realize that the echo and the low end Was destroying it. Unfortunately The olympic stadium is not a place for concert For me this the the sound was good Well enough that I could hear in details every instrument and the The the interplay. Uh, I remember how leper messiah I had I kept my eyes on the screen so I could see all four musicians And they've never played together so well But again ruined by the fact that a you're looking for the musicians on stage and b the sound It's not what we've heard before the many many many times If they would have played the bell center and arena, I think everybody would it would have just taken it to another level Oh, but I think the olympic stadium brought it down. It's just the fact that they played there Ruin for me for me not for the 55,000 people that were there But I was sitting next to Orlando and he was he wasn't too happy about the sound either and neither was Mihai who was sitting right after him. I mean no one could have been happy about the sound It's just what are you ready to live with, you know and actually lina said to me when metallica played She said hey, actually, it's pretty good now. We were probably closer to Stefan than you were So we thought it wasn't too bad But it's just the nature of the beast if you want to play stadiums You're playing places not just olympic stadium, which is particularly bad But stadiums were conceived for football games and for baseball games and for the olympic games They weren't conceived for rock concerts. It's just with Certain acts getting so big, you know, yesterday there were 55,000 people yesterday That's three to four arena shows on sunday. There will be probably the same amount of people Three or four arena shows are metallica gonna play the bell center for eight nights I don't know and do one set list four nights and another set list the other four nights It's just the concept of what this is And and who knows maybe next tour they go back to just doing arenas And but because of that people are going to get mad because it's an intimate metallica show in an arena So it's going to cost 750 dollars because you're getting an intimate show not a stadium show They there's there's there's something about Metal and the distance and the sound that metal needs to be sort of there's got to be a nice mix between the guitars You got to hear the guitars. There's no crunch There's no dynamics in the guitars. It disappears there It just disappears and you know, maybe for a pop artist that works They could have been limp sinking the whole night. We would have never known they probably weren't But if they were we would have never known that never and let me tell you they were spectacular All four of them were spectacular, you know as musicians as artists as a band as a collective They were fantastic great set list. I love the band I was only hoping that the sound And the distance was a little better and the distance was a little closer, but there's nothing you could do about that, right? Yeah, but I ultimately I thought Just the set list made me a very happy man. Uh, I know You know, I sort of lost interest in metallica after the black album And my favorites remain the first three. I'm one of those very old school metallica guy But I accept that musically They've evolved. They're no longer The trash metal scene band from the early 80s. They evolved and that's what musicians do You know, you're you might be a great player at 20 at 21 But play for 40 years and you'll be even better, you know so Metallica is not as it is certainly more polished musically than it ever was but the The interpretation of the songs last night was just as strong meaningful and powerful as they ever were and and and I think we need to to keep that in mind because It has an impact, you know fans could have gone to a show that could have been, you know 90% hits, you know, let's play the whole black album and but I'm okay with the new songs I like the new songs Integrated in the set. I do like I love the set. I'm more I'm more of the I didn't like the distance and I didn't like the sound and it kind of ruined it for me But I love the set list. I love the band. I thought they played great. It's just Yeah, I would tell anyone if if if if distance If proximity and sound is of the utmost importance to you You probably shouldn't go to stadium shows anywhere is what I would tell people I ended up watching the show on the video screens And it's not much of a live show if you're going to spend your whole time just watching a video Uh, it's cool. It's nice I don't know that's just me But then again The 55 000 people who are there love the show They're on their feet almost the whole time singing every word singing every word and I mean, you know what? Hey, I'm in the minority here But that's just how I felt and I'll I'll just close and saying this Stefan because jimmy won't be there But Stefan why I'm so excited about sunday is because we still have Fight uh, we have we have for whom the bell tolls to look forward to we have Battery to look forward to we have one to look forward to one man to look forward to We have we have we have whiplash. We have we have Yes, it was a great set list But I can build and I know we're going to see a pretty great set list on sunday and that's What's exciting is usually if a band plays two nights, it's more or less the same show and they change three songs We're getting Half a show a classic still on sunday plus there'll be three more new songs And there'll be some surprises.  I'm tall enough, but He's not so I'm just hoping that I Will be able to focus more on the band my tickets are Slightly different angle slightly higher. I might get a better angle because last night Like I said, I kept searching for the band members on stage And you know by the time I find kirk The guitar solo I was into he's done playing it, you know the camera's back on lars or Or robert, you know, so That that's my problem that's right There you go Focus because of stages just way too humongous All over the place the four the 360 thing it doesn't do it for me I hope that their next door whatever they do They'll go back to having one single stage Facing everyone at the same time. That's how you communicate with an audience All right, august the 13th. That's sunday at the olympic stadium You have metallica part two on the no repeat weekend There's still some few tickets left. So go out and check them out. Thanks guys. Have yourself a nice sunday Thank you. Thanks everybody

The Apostle Paul, the Apostles of the Gentiles, you know the one who wrote a large portion of the New Testament. One of his last words that's recorded in the Book of Second Timothy, as he knows he's going a certain death, is to beware of Alexander. In other words, beware of a false teacher, beware of a wolf. And so how important is it? Paul, remember Paul says to preach the word, be ready in season. He says to reprove, which means to prove someone if they're wrong, to rebuke. That's not a cuddly word. And to do so with all long suffering and great patience. In other words, to keep doing it. And so how important is it for us to contend for the faith? As Jude says, it's so important that Paul reminds us that even on his deathbed, so to speak, as he's getting ready to die, Paul gives one last reminder of this person who opposed his message. So how important is it? It's very important. Spread the gospel and at the same time, let people know of spiritual and doctrinal dangers.


A man charged with killing a woman and her adult son in Ottertail County has been found incompetent to stand trial and will be committed to a secure treatment center in St. Peter. 22-year-old William Hillman will be held at a center until his mental health improves and he is able to take part in legal proceedings against him. Hillman is charged in the deaths of 42-year-old Denise McFadden and 21-year-old Dalton McFadden. They were found fatally beaten at their rural Purim home last April. Authorities say Hillman was released from the mental health commitment in November of 2017 after punching his mother and threatening to kill her. He moved in with the McFaddens about six weeks before they were killed.


Yeah, to team keep it clean. What's going on? Hey yo team wonderkin. What is good as low as low as low Yeah, oh We don't made it man. We don't made it back like we left something. Yeah, cuz we did leave something to audio for the previous recording We go we gonna get started again in a little bit But we literally sat here recorded for 48 minutes. Yes, no audio So we had a running back, but it's all good But we here live from play action soul food. Yes here in Pompano Shout out to Lamar for for allowing this to happen Shout out to the whole staff here play action soul food because they've been better than great And then the food has been better than great They just everything been on point man from top to bottom So base we appreciate that everybody involved with the whole process and but shout out to nitro for a He shot it shot. He said hey I'm gonna record episode in the restaurant Lamar gave him the green light and you hear now So shout out to nitro man. Hey, hey, listen man. I'm loving it. We hear we don't get into sports We don't talk food. We don't talk everything. All right. This is for the Raven flock You feel me and you know what I brought to this too The sounds baby, so we're gonna get this popping. All right, so in okay first question What do you see the Ravens? Ceiling really being for this year and going forward after the signing of one name Lamar Jackson Just Continuity with elevation The reason I use both of those words obviously continuity because they're keeping that quarterback and and that's the most important piece of this whole thing and Moving forward everybody has a clear direction of What's going on with the quarterback because before especially if he would have been on a franchise tag If he would have played this year on a franchise tag, but you never anticipated him doing But if he would have been there would have been like oh man, what's gonna happen with Lamar? What could happen a little more will he be all into it with his head be in the game? But now that the contract is done. It's a wrap. Nobody has to wonder about that. So now With them the Ravens have invested in Lamar in a couple different ways now, which we appreciate great job Ravens Thank you. Shout out CDC. Yeah But with the Ravens having invested in him now They have an opportunity to take this thing to another level Ravens have made several Significant changes this offseason that can really make this a much better football team. They've done it with coaches They've done it with personnel And they've done it with philosophy really so if they can keep on going in this direction I could definitely see elevation for them this season, bro I got a big hope for this season, bro. Big hopes. Let me say this, right? When we look at so far what the Ravens have been able to accomplish in the past they've done it with Very rudimentary passing game. They've done it with a lack of offensive weapons, right? And they've done it with literally working Lamar into the ground, right? So now you're giving Lamar options Like this is why I try to tell people you are capturing the creative mind of the fans Because no longer are we watching that Lamar would have to be Superman aka Clark Kent every Sunday He can have days where he's just like Time to pick out a part, baby. You get a ball. You get a ball. Haha. You get some balls to pause and with that it is it's nice because Obviously Mark Andrews has established himself as one of the best tight ends in the game and that's a wonderful thing That's a beautiful thing. Yeah, but a lot of times with Ravens offense. It was like Mark Andrews or bust You will get some you get some help from some other guys sometimes but consistently it was always Mark Andrews Usually doing his thing and again, that's not a bad thing that he was doing his thing But now you added an Odell Beckham, Jr. Yeah, you added Nelson Aguilore You got Rashad Bateman coming back. You got Devon Duvenay coming back. You added an Odell Beckham, Jr. So now with that and you still you got JK Dobbins coming back and he should be even better this year Since he'll be healthy you have Gus Edwards coming back And he should be even better this year because he'll be healthy You got justice he'll cut like you now you have options you have even more options And when you have more options that makes life easier for everybody It doesn't just have to be alright We'll focus on Mark Andrews take him out the game.  He's gonna ask the defense. Have you eight yet? Bro, but for real I totally agree with that man when you're looking I was I was actually talking about so one of my previous videos You know it also it takes the burden off of the coaches That's the part people aren't realizing you have a new OC coming in right He's coming in and he's having it that he can have these guys there and use them Not not force-feeding one guy. They don't have to call the best game They don't have to do the most work They could just call Some simple stuff and then they could just spread the ball around instead of saying I have to come up with a perfect play Every single time because if they don't it won't work. Why because they're leaning on Lamar They're leaning on Mark and they're saying it's either you two or oops. Sorry and guess what? I don't see in the foreseeable future of this OC not using JK if he's hot Hmm, right. Okay, that's my point with this It makes the coaching job easier to talent alleviate stress And we all know that stress can make diamonds with stress buzz pipes Pressure buzz pipes and with this stuff right now. We don't need any more pipes busting in Baltimore Yeah, that's a really really good point. It reminds me of I will think about like a teacher If a teacher she has a lot of kids that are failing. Here's her class Yeah, then that teacher could be looked at like a bad teacher Even if that teacher had success at previous schools and whatnot But if she has a lot of students like getting a's and b's and stuff and that teacher's gonna look much better And it's gonna make that teacher's job a lot easier Because she has so many talents and students and they can go on and do different things And then she'll get a lot of credit too and that's like what you were talking about with the coaching staff The more talented players they have it makes their job easier way easier. So, yeah, I like that And that's something that I've been on for for years now. I'm just the Ravens making Not just Lamar's job. Certainly Lamar's job easier But just really making everybody's job easier and they really like air the cost of this off-season Yeah, he has stepped like way out of the box With stuff that he would normally never do he's doing it this year comfort zone. Yeah, wait way out of comfort Yeah, it ain't even close to whatever that comfort zone was before They like they did a distant land beyond that man So, um and part of that was with the Odell Beckham Junior signing because I remember when when they signed Nelson Aguilera, I'm like, all right Nelson Aguilera. They're straight I'm not not the best not the worst, but it can't be it but I was expecting like oh, but these are the Ravens. So Nelson Aguilera, they run the risk of him just being it and then be like, all right, let's run it but I was hoping that it wouldn't be and then Bad what the month later? I think however long it was later We hear talks about them being interested in Odell. We hear oh, they want to sign Odell to a deal We hear they offered Odell a deal. We hear all this stuff. Y'all know me. I was like, oh that we don't see this before It probably ain't gonna happen, but but it did. Yeah, it went down and it didn't only go down, but the Ravens They made it to where there was gonna be no competition Between them and other teams for Odell Beckham Junior. They literally they spent that bread on Odell Yes, like 15 mil guarantee 15 mil guarantee. You like what Ravens Ravens gave that for one year. Yeah I'm like, I remember seeing the terms of the deal and I think like what Ravens are these? Imagine Odell thinking he wasn't gonna get that and the Ravens. Hey 15 million dollars probably they're talking about It just threw me off but I was throwing off in a good way. I'll be happy about it because Hey, it's scared money don't make money and you got a you got to spend money, man Yeah, and hopefully they will get that return on investment But I like that they stepped out there and they went for it because normally that's not something that they would do normally They will play it safe, but with Odell Beckham Junior. It's not safe and let me ask you The last time that that we saw Odell Beckham Junior How did he look they didn't cuz a lot of people say when you talk about Odell Beckham Junior Oh, he's washed he ain't the same. He can't play no more. He's over the hill What how did Odell look the last time that we saw let me tell you how he looked he looked like a Super Bowl champion to me Touchdowns listen if it wasn't for the injury. He was gonna get the Super Bowl MVP That's what it was looking like. He was gonna he was cooking them cooking the bangles.  Odell did so when I look at them I'm like, bro if he could even get back to that and that wasn't even remember he was hurt It came out that he was hurt that entire time and they knew it But he was playing on it if he gets back to even that my god It's a beautiful day and I will be there to laugh at Every opponent as they get ramrodded and run through because what are they gonna be able to do? No, no, seriously, what are they gonna be able to do in if you if when you go into a um, think about this real quick Lamar Jackson's a Lamar Jackson led offense is second Right since he's been in the league only behind Patrick Mahomes That's a Patrick Mahomes with probably the greatest receiving tight end This league has ever seen with the one of the greatest offensive play callers This league has ever seen that part and a multiple times Super Bowl winning. Oh, see Hmm, so when you take all that into consideration and say well a Lamar let offense did all that what he had What is he gonna do when now you can't double mr. Andrews and we all know how people like to play Lamar They like to put somebody down in the box just in case he wants to go off script, right?  I am going to enjoy The amount of blowouts you want me to say something to aim with a lot of people that are watching are taking advantage of These Ravens they've been listening to everything You understand what listening means that means paying attention. They've been hearing all of the doubts They've been hearing all the hate they've been hearing all this stuff So what you're getting is you're getting an annoyed and frustrated Lamar, right? You're getting an annoyed frustrated JK You're getting an annoyed frustrated Harbaugh you're getting an annoyed frustrated mark Andrews You're getting an annoyed frustrated Bateman and you're getting a very very spry Zay flowers and a newly Refreshed OBJ bro. It's going to be gangbusters and they're not going to be blowing out teams Regularly remember back in 2019 when they were doing all what he was doing. He threw those 36 touchdowns, right? He was sitting up all those fourth quarters. Yeah, I did the math on this thing. I did the math 2.75 amount of time he missed that season.   Oh and OBJ even though he we're paying him He's on a one-year deal So he's technically auditioning for the next team if not for us next season, bro, it's true. I feel sorry for y'all I really do I don't I don't feel sorry for nobody man, especially if the Ravens go off like they should like they got the potential to I don't feel sorry for nobody. What do you think the ceiling is for games? Oh 17 games There's some hiccups here and there with health like with health health is Good, what are you picking bro? I'm looking at straight. What are you picking in?  Give me another corner. Well, maybe another two corners Give me give me fit 15 and two Give me 15 and two 15 and two with healthy. Oh, yeah 15 and two Man 15 and two man coming from me. Yeah. Yeah. Y'all don't like he's nice.  They're gonna be perfect now. Y'all already know. So yeah Give me 15 and two if they healthy and another corner if they're healthy if they're healthy and they get another corner this raven team Will threaten the perfect season They'll have the opportunity to do it. Am I saying it's going to happen? Look at look at think about this thing I want I want to keep it in perspective. I want to keep it. I know you people gonna come for me Oh, no, I chose put an expectation on us To those with the most Expectation is required. You understand what I'm coming from this team is one of the best scoring teams even with Greg Roman even with The lack of weapons and now you're gonna have a roquan That's a full off season a grade shaded into the defensive program You're gonna have all these players Marcus Williams is going to be healthy All these players are going to be healthy All of these players gonna be a great shater with the on-play book All these players aren't some of them are going to be playing for guess what money because what came out today About a certain linebacker that didn't get a fifth-year option picked up. Oh, yeah, that's you see what I'm saying So he's playing so he's not gonna just tackle you no more He's gonna try to blow your face off Bro, listen, I don't usually feel sorry for it for my opponents But I really feel sorry for y'all because if y'all think that they're just gonna say oh y'all wave the white flag And that's all I'm telling you in this team if they can remain healthy and focus this team will be able to threaten a 17 perfect game season and Super Bowl to put the the cherry on top. Well, yeah, that's the most important thing And I'm glad you said the word focus just now because I think that's important. Yeah, because um They people can have all the motivation in the world that they want to yeah They can be as motivated as they can be but if that motivation and that energy It's not channeled the right way Then it's not gonna mean anything and you could be out of control. So it's important that How would how motivated the Ravens can be?  Hopefully there will be none. It'd be nice a little perfect season on the section But any interception? Oh, he didn't deserve it any mister Anything that he does, you know how it goes already because that's how it was last year any time you messed up people I don't see he doesn't deserve well anyway He got it. So even this might feel like he don't deserve he got he got his braids He can't even say nothing, but uh, go ahead. Go ahead. I'll say this too for the doubters for the team Cuz I've been hearing a lot of you know stuff coming about, you know The front office and Lamar had to settle and take what was given and stuff like that. Yeah, I know you heard that, right? What other option did the Ravens have? Hear me and hear me well when I say this. Have y'all seen the AFC? Have y'all, hold up. I want y'all to really understand this, right? For as vaunted and as good as everybody's saying that this defense can be Do you think that that defense for four quarters can hold out against Patrick Mahomes? Chiefs Josh Allen? Bills, ooh Justin Herbert. Chargers. Trevor Lawrence. Jaguar. Oh, Jaguars. Yeah, we played him this year too. Yeah, Aaron Rodgers The Jets, yeah. Two attacking the Vola. Adam Dolphins. We played him next year too, and they beat us last time, right? They sure did. Oh, remember the Six Touchdown game? The Six Touchdown game, right? Mm-hmm. Deshaun, um, Deshaun Watson. Oh the Browns. We see them two times a year. Joe Burrell. And we see them two times a year last year three, yeah. Bro, like what are we doing here? There was no alternative. When you have a player at that level, he gives you the best chance to win. And that's even with a lack of absolute weapons that he could depend on in crucial situations. Operative word. Crucial situations. Yeah. Okay, so that's what I'm saying.  I hate bringing up his name, Mike Florio, saying, you know, he wisely took it when you have to understand that, listen, uh, uh, this was a negotiation, right? It's a negotiation. They're gonna, there's gonna be highs, there's gonna be lows.  That's how you do business. But this, this trope, that old, there's to be found without him. That's how the hundred would be able to live a successful war. Yo, get out of here with that. That's lying. Like, bro, be real. What do you think about it? Am I tripping? I like Tyler Huntley. He's cool. And no hate to snoop. Right, right. And he's from over this way too. Yeah. But he's just a different quarterback than Lamar Jackson is. Like you mentioned earlier, Lamar gives the Baltimore Ravens the best chance to win. He gives them their best like, and there've been games too where I think one of the two of the biggest ones that I remember where I just, I was like, no, love the Ravens, but they losing this game for sure. One of them was in 2019 against the Seahawks. I was for sure. I remember always saying, hey, the Ravens, they're gonna lose this game by at least 10. I was obviously wrong. And the Ravens, maybe they even won by 10 or more, but Ravens won that game. I'm like, wow. And then the other game where I felt that way, I think it was the 2021 season. Yeah. It was 2021. I know what you're gonna say. I know exactly what you're gonna say. Against the Chiefs. Yes. I was for sure. Oh, yeah. Love my Ravens, man. Yeah. Love them all, but we're losing this game. Chiefs, like Lamar said, they are kryptonite. They got us. Our team, a lot of our guys are hurt. And I was like, yeah, we're gonna lose this game. Nope. And I'm sure y'all could think of other games too, where you might have felt like, oh, the Ravens gonna lose. And whether the Ravens did lose or not, if the Ravens were right there in it. But with other quarterbacks, those wins don't happen. The games like that don't happen. Exactly. So that's why with Lamar Jackson, it's just, it was of the essence to make sure this thing got done and that they kept him. And, you know, I do really believe that it wasn't just a contract that kept him around, but it was a lot of the other significant moves the Ravens made this offseason and how they made them that really kept him around. There's a couple of things. Obviously with the offensive coordinator, they moved on from Greg Roman and, you know, with the Ravens, I felt like that should have happened a couple years ago. But okay, it took them a little extra time. Sometimes it could be loyal to a fault. It happened. But they did it. They moved on from Greg Roman. They did the mutually pardoned ways with Greg Roman. All right, cool. They also moved on and, you know, whether this was because of the survey that was coming out or just coincidence. Who knows? But they moved on from Steve Saunders. How do you get an F minus? That man got a minus after an F. You don't listen. I don't listen. Yeah, that's lower than lower.  I probably did before a couple of times. But they moved on from Steve Saunders. So that was big. Bringing in Todd Munkin. That was big, but also personnel. And Nelson Aguilod, but bringing in Odell Beckham, Jr. in the way they brought in Odell Beckham, Jr. I think these are all things that really show Lamar, like, hey, we we're trying there. We're trying to do better. We're trying to really get this thing going for you. So we got your back. We really going to move in a different direction now. So it seems like the Ravens, their philosophy is headed in a different route. And again, this is something that a lot of us have been talking about for years, but the Ravens are now seeming to pivot. So let's hope that that continues. Oh, and then another thing, too. Obviously, this had this happened after the contract. But when doing the draft, we which direction were the Ravens going to go in? A lot of some people think of receiver. A lot of people think in corner, since they just signed Odell Beckham, Jr. And for them to steal, despite Bateman coming back, despite signing Odell, despite signing Nelson Aguilar, despite Duvenay returning, despite all of that. And then of course, some guys on the practice squad, too, they still took you their first round pick on Zay flowers. They still did. And when I saw that, I was like, OK, especially with him being from Broward, too.  Who does he remind you of before you go any further? Who does he remind you of? No, a lot of people say it's D. Smith, senior. Some people even say Hollywood Brown. But to me, I see Antonio Brown here. He reminds me of A.B. a lot. Oh, my God. If he turns into that, my God, I mean, if he turns into any of the three, we'll be in good hands. Oh, yeah. He is he's explosive. He's obviously a shorter receiver. He's like five, nine, five, 10, but he's lower to the ground. But he's still explosive. He can make plays. He is not afraid to be physical. I remember when I watched him on him, just watching the plays that didn't even go to him, like a running play, he ain't afraid to run up to a corner back and engage, engage with him in blocking. So yeah, he just he's not afraid. He does not play scared, anything like that. And he gets after it. And again, the yak, him being an explosive player, you can never, ever, ever, ever, ever have enough of those. You can never have too many of them. You can't. And the thing with the Ravens too, it's like they have different options in the receiving game because you got an O'Dell Beckham Jr. You got a Rashad Bateman who we really learned about last year in terms of this. And you got a Zay flowers, all who can stretch the field. And they never do what they can too. But you got guys that can stretch the field. But they can also work the underneath stuff as well. So you got options, cause we've seen Bateman do it. You know, Zay flowers can do it. Oh, O'Dell Beckham Jr, he could do it too. So they have options of guys that can beat you in several different ways. And then on top of that, so it's like, if you come out with two receivers, you come out with three receivers, you can't be like, all right, depending on what receiver the Ravens bring out here, then if it's a passing play, it's only gonna be a short pass. Cause this guy, he's only does a short rest and all that. Very good point. You have options. Yeah. And since you got options that push you in such in a much better spot. So that's gonna be nice to see. You know what's crazy? I keep hearing everyone talk about Zay flowers. And I wanted the people that were like, oh, you know, I really wanted Taked out. That was the guy I wanted. But I'll tell you something right now. If Zay flowers can even be half, half of what people are saying he can be, it's gonna be absolutely bombastic to say the least.  Steve Smith senior? AB? Bro, and listen, when you look at and you say that you see him in Hollywood, cause you hear that comparison, the only thing that's similar to him in Hollywood is that they're both from down here and they're short and they're fast. That's it. That's where the similarities end. Hollywood has rare, rare top end speed. Another gear that he could take to get on the top of any defense in the NFL. There's not a safety that Hollywood cannot threaten with simply him running directly at them. There is none. Okay. There is none. This guy, he's like scrap, bro. He's like, give me the ball. If the ball's in the air, his mindset is, it's mine.  Like that's his mindset. And if he could bring, that's almost like a raving mentality in a receiver. We're used to having raving mentality in linebackers, corners, safeties, shout outs to the goats. You feel I'm trying to say, yeah. Bro, but not on, not on wide receiver. If he can translate that, my God.  But it's like you're trying to force yourself that you can because you don't want to get lost in it. You know what I mean? Like it's almost like, I'm looking at it like, bro, all the ceiling, all this, we're going to be able to do this. We're going to be able to do that. But if you keep thinking like that, it's like, oh, but we still got to pump the brakes because they're still have to, they still have to perform. Yeah. They still have to perform. Yeah, they really do, man. But it's, it is nice to think about it though. It's nice to think about the possibilities of this Raven's offense and really just the team as a whole. Because, and obviously health is wealth. That is a, that's the big, the real deal right there. Health is wealth. And so is Cormbread, Cormbread from Play Action is wealth as well. Yo, I'm not going to lie, this fool is fire, bro. Yeah, it is really good, man. And I don't want to hear no fat jokes, Neva. He ate his food before I did. Hey, y'all can say him about me all day. One thing right now that we don't know about these Ravens, is how they're gonna perform. Both offense and defense. And I mean, you could call that a mystery right now because we just don't know. And I mean, that's also the name of this drink from Play Action Soul Food. It's a mystery drink. And it's really, really, really, really good. I don't know what it is because it's a mystery, but it's really, really good. So we're hoping that the Ravens, their offense and defense, the entire team turns out the same way as their drink. You don't know what it is. You don't know what it's gonna be, but it ends up being great. And when you think about the defense, man, you brought up Roquan Smith, now him having a full offseason. Yes. With Patrick Queen, we'll see if he's here. I would love for him to stay. Even though they declined his fifth year option, you talked about just the motivation that he could possibly be playing with, just to prove to the Ravens, or prove to whoever the next team could be. Like, hey, I'm one of them, man. I'm one of them, and I deserve to get my bread. I can play, y'all know I could ball out, and I'm gonna show you. Now, how are you feeling about the Ravens pass rush? Cause I think that's a big question mark right now. Okay, I think you answered the question already though. Listen bro, I'ma be real with you. Look, hope for the best plan for the worst. You know what I'm saying? Look, we're looking at it from a standpoint of saying, we're hoping some guys come back healthy, right? Right. And we're hoping that the new acquisitions can play and be successful from jump. But there's a big hole that's missing, okay? Kaleis Campbell was the anchor of that line. I don't care what anybody says. You can argue with somebody else. He was the anchor. So can the ship still sail and go where it needs to go? You know what I'm saying? If that anchor is not there. And the pass rush is Justin Houston coming back? Wasn't he our sack leader? Yeah, nine and a half of him. You can all come up. How do you didn't get 10? How you didn't get 10? He was tired too. Listen, hold up, before we go any closer, right? Before we go any further. Can you show them one of the wings, bro? Cause here's the thing. Y'all be thinking I'm tripping, right? Can you show them your wing, bro? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, before we get into that, we're talking about pass rush, but also got concerns for the secondary. Cause one of the terms that people will call a bad secondary, bad corner, they say it's baked chicken. And even though this is not baked chicken, this chicken tenders, they fried. We don't want our secondary to turn in like these. These are really good, but we don't want nobody on our secondary getting fried. So hopefully that goes down. But yes, these are the chicken tenders with fries that are really, really good. And now, when you see this, that's like, that's like the appetizer. Bro, bro, look at this thing. The smothered turkey wings. I don't want to, see, I'm already spilling already. I'm about to spill it all over my phone. But hopefully y'all can see that good. But the smothered turkey wings. Bro. With lima beans and collard greens. It's the size of my face. And rice tubing. They hooked it up, man. They really did. So again, shout out to PlayAction. They came through in a major way. How you get a turkey with that thing, bro? I can't even fit in the plate. I don't know where these turkeys came from, bro. They good, man. Oh God. All the swatts in there got turkeys. I love it though, man. Bro, listen, I know y'all watch and we're having fun being out here, man. Oh my God. We came out, you know, we teamed up on this and they just totally ingratiated us from the time we came in here. Great service, great food. If the food was not good, trust me. As a member of some of the bigger race of human beings, I would tell you it's not good. The food melts in your mouth, bro. Yeah. Hold on. Just so y'all understand that I'm not joking. Cause some, we already ate some of the food. Look at this. Yeah, it's out of there, man. And look at that big wing right there. I couldn't even eat all of it, bro. One plate could feed two people. It's a saving. Bro, man, shout out to Play Action. Great people, great service. Lamar, man, you got something here, man. You need to open one in Maryland, bro. You might need to open one in Vegas too. Man, but not, but for real. You know, being out here, having fun, talking sports, loving it with my man, bro, thanks for being out here, by the way.  Yeah, look, man, three hours I had to drive to get. Three hours. It was worth it, though. It was worth it, bro. It was worth it. I can't even lie, it was worth it. It's like, opportunity like this don't just happen every day, man. Yeah, man, fun, man. Shout out to you for being dedicated like that to make that little drive down, man. Yeah, man. Don't worry. I'm seeing an old happy day all the way. As long as I'm thinking about them raving on what this office can be. Oh, happy day. I'm, bro, you think I hit that note too. You, I know you are sister, I'll hit that note. Oh, whoopie gold, baby. Oh, yeah. I'll hit that note too. Oh, Jesus. Yeah, I'll hit it, don't play with me. I'm, listen, man, it's man, I'll say this though. The Ravens have done something that they haven't done in a long time since they've drafted Lamar. And they've captured the imagination of the entire fan base in its entirety. Even people doing patrol, we all have names for, you know, doing patrol, purple patrol, you know, the people that fall in between the imagination of the average Raven fan is off the charts right now because people are just imagining what this team could be. And especially when it was announced that he had signed, you know, Mr. Jackson, the record contract and got that out of the way, you know what I mean? It just let us further know like, oh my God, he's here and he's not going nowhere.  Let me tell you something right now. I am, it's almost unfair with the feeling how we're feeling as a fan base because as long as that imagination is running wild, it's hard not to get swept away by it, bro. It's hard not to. It's fair, cause we've been waiting on this for a while. He's like, it's fair. It's fair, man. A lot of this stuff that, yeah, shout out to them. A lot of stuff that they doing now, my opinion, it should have been done years ago, but we are glad that they are taking this route, these steps, especially because it's like the way that they have been doing things, just really playing it very, very safe. It's like, they've been doing that for a while. They've been doing that for years, but had it worked, did it work? No, it hasn't. So why not step out there, try something different, shake it up. I can't even say shake it up a little bit. Shake it up a lot like they did and really put yourself out there, put yourself out there and go for it. So I'm glad they finally doing it. So let's see how it goes. Say except the void years finally. Mm-hmm. Yeah, and I know that that scared a lot of people. They like void years, now I don't do void years. No, do the void years. Do the void years. Like, come on, man. What is the future without the present? Like seriously, like if you're always thinking about the future, the present will pass you by. And it has, it had. It had, it almost fully had. You feel what I'm trying to say? Like, and I think that mindset, that's why I said that the ravens are getting out of their own way. Yeah. They're rectifying and they're fixing what needs to be rectified and fixed. And us as a fanbase are related by, because we've been screaming for the top of our lungs for them to do this for years. And they're finally doing it. So that's why everybody's so elated. I'm, look, man, this week has been like Christmas. Could you imagine something like this would happen during Christmas? We wouldn't even need presents. This would have been the perfect present underneath the tree. This is, I mean, think of, it's so, what were you doing when you heard that the news came through? It's like, oh, the ravens just got OBJ. And later on, a couple of weeks later, the ravens just signed Lamar Jackson. What was I doing when they signed Odell Beckham? You know, I really don't even remember, but whatever I was doing, I was getting home to record that video because I was hyped about it. I was happy because I just, I really did not think, you know what, as a matter of fact, I think I was home already because actually, yeah, yeah, okay, I remember now, because that same morning, I had actually already recorded a video and I talked about how I just, I thought the chances of them signing Odell Beckham Jr. were not likely. Literally that same morning, okay, I'm glad you asked because it's bringing it up to my memory. Because I just, I did not see it happening at all. Couple of hours later, boom, yeah, and you know what? I know with some people, what do you say? If you're loud and wrong, then what did you say? If you're loud and wrong, then your apology better be equally as loud. Oh, there we go. So that was, I was happy to be loud and wrong. I was very happy to be loud and wrong about that. I was happy to be loud and wrong about that. I was happy to be loud and wrong about them re-signing Lamar Jackson because y'all remember earlier this off-season, I didn't think it was gonna happen. But when they signed Odell Beckham Jr., that's when my mind changed on that. But still, so I'm glad to have been wrong about those two things. Like even somebody, I think I've seen it in another video, somebody had a message me and they were like, oh, see, you were wrong about Lamar Jackson. Like, oh. Happily, yeah, I'm great. Happily wrong. Like, sit down. You think I'm gonna get upset about that? No problem, hey, I'm glad to be wrong about that. Yeah, like, who wants to be right about that? Oh, he's going somewhere else. No one wants to be right about that? Yeah, so I'm just glad that that worked out because that was obviously huge. And that could have been a very, very big distraction if it going on another season. So I'm glad that that's squared away. We don't have to worry about the ifs, the maybes, the what could be's, the way he could possibly end up. That's done, that's it. So, yeah, Lamar, so with him being locked in, that can help lock the team in and things could just move forward, man. Bro, after it happened, I remember watching his draft video again. Someone that posted his draft video and it was just like, I'm a rev, it's on. And I remember him asking, you know, Lamar, like, well, what are they gonna get? They're gonna get everything out of me. They're gonna get a Super Bowl out of me. And you could see, listen, let me tell you something. You could always tell, cause y'all not from, some people are not from Florida, right? I lived here the majority of my life. When you see someone look at you sideways and they bite that bottom lip as a man, either they're about to do something to you or they're pissed off, right? I'll tell you this right now. When he said the words, believe that, when he was biting up, believe that, he meant it. And now we have an invigorated QB. We have a new offensive coordinator, right? Who I'm praying to all the heavens above will just call these games and just diversify the passing game, uplift the passing game. And we have the weapons that he has. I mean, truthfully, honestly speaking, the year he led the league in passing touchdowns, Hollywood was hobbled. He was hobbled. We're getting Zay, we're getting bait. We're getting all these guys broke. I really think the Scott, with this team, as constructed right now, and mind you, I do want Marcus Peters back. I'll see if we get him back. Wouldn't have no problem with that. The Super Bowl, it could really be a reality for us, man. It could be, it really could be. And that would be really nice to, obviously, I mean, winning a Super Bowl is the best. I'm gonna be there. That would be great. I don't know if I would be there. I would like to. I'll drop in with a parachute. Oh, I'm gonna. And you would drop out in handcuffs, too. So, but it is. Like freeze! I'm like, no! Yeah, I mean, that's obviously the ultimate goal. But this offseason, it's really seemed like the Ravens are trying to obtain that goal. Because in past offseasons, it seemed like, they're like, okay, if a Super Bowl happens, okay, cool. But this offseason, again, they've been stepping out, like you mentioned, stepping out of their comfort zone. Yes. It seemed like they really going after it. You know what, take it a step further. They're embracing expectation, expectation, bro. A lot of times, and look, y'all watching this, you tell me if I'm wrong in the comments. The Ravens have ingratiated, have built, have ingrained the idea of being the underdog into everything that we do. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Everything. We get it out of the mud. We get it. You don't see us coming. You get our coming from. And now with them doing what they're doing now, it's the, the yellow signals, all the bright lights are flashing over Baltimore. This is not the way the Baltimore Ravens usually like to come at people. They like to be the underdog, okay? They don't like to be the hunted. They like to be the hunter. But when they made these moves, I see this right now in, they're being hunted now. Because expectation is now been placed at the foot of one named John Arbaugh. Cause just like how some of you can notice, we're hoping that these players pan out, right? We're hoping everybody pans out. Everyone can stay healthy. But here's the kicker. If these players play well and they're panning out and injuries aren't happening, what's going to be the excuse for Mr. Harbaugh if we don't get the job done? Because you know it's going to fall at his feet. That's a really, really good point. Yeah. You got your quarterback. Yeah. That's some weapons now. And it obviously all just depends. It's not a black and white type of thing. It's not a, it all just depends on how everything comes together and hopefully doesn't fall apart. So yeah, that's going to be something worth watching. I mean, as it always is because coaching plays a big role in everything. Obviously everything starts at the top with the ownership, GM coaching and it trickles down to the players too as far as execution and everything. So hopefully this year the message is from the top like, hey, we want to win. So it's the Super Bowl. Now we just want to win 10 games, 11, no, no, no. We want to win the Super Bowl. Cause if that's the message that's being conveyed from the top, it has to start at the top. Yeah. And then go down, then it'll just, it can make the team that much better. Listen, man, I'm just praying for the best. I'm just praying for the best because man, this is the year. This is the year. This is the year for them to get it done. And with everything that has, Lamar's going to have the most weapons of his career. This might be the best offensive unit our boss ever had at his disposal during his tenure as a Baltimore Raven coach. Monk in already having success at Georgia coming in with these type of weapons. Come on now, man. Listen, this is the year, man. This is the year I want to see eight and those guys holding that Lombardi and grinning at every person that was a naysayer. Listen, man, that's all I want to see. I want to see it, man. I want to see it. Yeah, that would be lovely, man. That would be obviously the perfect way to a season, to end the season, to the football season. They're heading to the off season. That's like, imagine that feeling. It's been a long time. Since 2013, that was the last year that we went into the off season. Like, oh man, like they even just won the Super Bowl. Yeah, it felt good. And when I tell people, like, man, Raven's won the Super Bowl, I'm good for like five years, man. I'm straight, man. Because they won it. Well, I mean, it would be even better if they could be like the Chiefs or even the Patriots and stuff would be spoiled and two Super Bowls would end. Four years, four, five years. But if Zay turns into it, they can be. If Zay turns into what you and a lot of people think he is, even what I'm hoping he could be, they could be, bro. This could be the making, we could literally be watching the making of a dynasty. And that in itself should frighten all the other NFL teams. Cause then what were you going to say? What are you going to say? Come on now, man. And then people might come here just to win one for Chief. We might end up getting some guys that are still superstars on the downturn of the career that really want that ring. You know how it goes. That's what that Patriot Chiefs sort of said to me. That would be something. Cause I know guys have done that in the past on defense. But would they flip it? Imagine that on offense. That's what I'm saying. Oh, bro, it got me feeling light. Oh, bro. So yeah, that would be different, man. That would be, yeah, man. That would be different. Something that we definitely not used to. But again, all of the stuff that's been going on, we ain't used to, but we will gladly take it. Very much so. So anyway, appreciate y'all watching. Appreciate y'all coming through. If you're watching this on my channel, you watching on his channel, in Graven Viers or Nitro or the Wonder King show. We appreciate all of y'all. Yes. Thank you all of y'all.

Hey everyone, it's Rob Greenfield, I'm here with Kyle and Jolene at Leica Tilan in Guatemala and I'm here at their Super Adobe Dome Build and Workshop. I'll get into that in a minute but I wanted to tell you about them because they have an awesome life, they are basically living their dream, traveling the world and right now building an off-the-grid Adobe, Super Adobe home. So in about a week's time they'll be living here. Some cool facts about them, Kyle has hitchhiked, has had over 400 hitches in his life, between the two of them, over 500. They've hitchhiked across Canada and back, Belize, Guatemala, Alaska, Canada. They've lived in a bus, turned into a camper, a school bus as well as campers and a sailboat for a little while. Jolene's a certified yoga instructor and has a bachelor's in kinesiology. Yeah, bachelor's in science. Bachelor's in science and kinesiology. So really rad people doing really rad things and I wanted to share your story and the reason I wanted to share their story is because it's super inspirational and to me it shows an example of being able to get out of the rat race or the life that's not the most satisfying and really follow your dream.  Typical year in our life, we spend the summers working in Canada, working seasonal jobs outdoors usually. The winters we live in Central America working and volunteering and doing stuff like this and in the spring and fall that's our transition time, we travel between the two. So about work half the year, travel half the year. So you're both from Canada and you don't live a traditional life, you're traveling the world for a good portion of the year, going to live off the grid in this dome, why do you choose to live this way? I traveled to the tar sands in northern Alberta and I just got a real first hand view and experience of what fossil fuels is doing to our planet and I thought to myself this just can't be the only way we can progress as humans so I set out to learn different ways to live off the grid and to live in a good kind way with the earth and with other people. Nice. And I'm on a very similar path and it's really just about following your heart and choosing things that make you happy instead of just doing what everyone else tells you you should do. So that path to happiness has led us to traveling and living in a kind and gentle way. So I feel like for a lot of people in our generation the thing that really holds them back from living out like you're talking about is money. So how much would you say in a year it takes to be able to live this lifestyle of traveling and being able to do mostly everything that you want to? Yeah, well right now between the two of us for all the traveling and all this stuff it's about $20,000 US a year. Okay, so $10,000 a piece US about. Pretty much. So let's talk about this little piece of land. You got this land for $3,000. And then this dome that we're building which I'll show you in a second. This is costing about $4,000 to build this dome. So between the two of these we're buying the land and building your house. It's about $7,000. So for under $10,000 a Canadian or an American could feasibly move to Guatemala or somewhere else and live off the grid and. Totally. Totally. They can definitely get started for sure. And so otherwise they could come down here and live year round or the other thing is they could live down here for eight months of the year, work really hard during the summer or the winter and make $10,000 and be able to do eight months here and four months back home. Exactly, that's kind of our plan and it's kind of what we're doing already. Yeah, exactly. And some of you might be thinking but flying back and forth isn't really environmentally friendly but you can hitchhike or you can go over land the whole way. You can take the bus, you can sail, you can work on a sailboat and come down. Now what is going on here? Tell me a little bit on to the Super Adobe. We are filling these big sandbags basically with compacted packed earth. We take a mix of Adobe which is the right mix of clay and earth and rocks and then we add in a small bit of cement as well. That's what makes it Super Adobe and that's for extra strength so we don't need as much support as in buttresses and rebar. So coming over here you got the mixing area. This is where we mix up the different soil we have. We are using some combination of soil from the land as well as some earth that we got from a landslide nearby on the highway. So between the two, a bit of cement, we have a really strong mix. So coming up over here the dome is coming up as you can see layer by layer. We layer the sandbags and fill them with earth and then tamp down to compact. It has to be compact so that it will stay. Here's the inside, it's getting very domular. This is the bottom floor, we are actually going to have a loft as well for sleeping in up above and this is a high dome. We got a five foot stem wall, so five feet high before it starts to dome in. So lots of living space for this tiny home. Over here guys we got some tools. This is where we keep the barbed wire and sandbags. Barbed wire is added between each layer to hold the bags together for friction and add tensile strength to the dome. So without the barbed wire it wouldn't work. You don't need a lot of materials, you don't need a lot of tools, we're doing this all without electricity, no power tools, hand mixing just with a lot of hands and buckets and shovels. We decided to run this as a workshop to get our friends involved and to have more help building the dome. So yeah, it's a SuperDoby workshop where we're housing people for the week, feeding them yoga and together we get to learn how to build this dome. We have building instructors here as well and a local crew that's helping us out. So tell me what the plans are on this, oh it's about a fifth or a third of an acre right? Third of an acre. And what's the plans here? It's all going to be on solar power and we want to catch rainwater for most of our water and do a lot of, introduce the gray water recycling and stuff like that as well. So solar panels, gray water systems, rainwater harvesting, permaculture gardens, if we can grow a lot of food we'll probably have chickens too and get some eggs and stuff. We're just going to try to sustain ourselves to start, see if we can like build a life off this land and then once we do we can grow and teach people how to do that. So what would be your five biggest tips for somebody who's really looking to do something like this? I would say the biggest, most important one is set the intention. You have to have an intention and you have to plant that within you or wherever you like to hold your intentions and carry that forward. And then second biggest thing is trust and faith that that intention will unfold in time and the people will come into your life when you need it. And then the more practical side of things. So practical, I mean me too. So practical really what we learned is start small and simple. So building modular is one of the big lessons we learned in our travels. And so we're building one step at a time, maybe one year at a time. We had a building here, a building there. Instead of trying to build it all in one go and counter catastrophes, we're taking you small and learning from our mistakes and that way it's easier to think about and easier to accomplish, small steps. You want to find people who are doing something similar in your area and link up with them. Okay. So that's what we've done. Unity basically. Yeah and well over the years we've kind of found things like this. We wanted to get into natural buildings so we did some studies and courses in volunteering and that's led us to finding out about the people here. So we found people doing natural building. We volunteered with them and now here we are partners running a workshop together. And lastly I would say just do it as a community, yeah, invite your friends. You know we can't do this on our own. So yeah, if we inviting our friends doing the workshop, it's a great way to make it happen and it's a win-win for everyone involved. Nice. And if I had to add one, it would be live simply because the less you need, the easier it is to have everything that you need. So you know putting solar on this, if you're not powering a 55 inch plasma, it's easy to solar power this. You need all this stuff, it all makes it so much harder. And what about resources for anybody who's interested in super Adobe or Adobe natural building? I mean for us, we did train it with the Earthship Academy, so we learned about Earthships. So that's a good resource, Earthship biotech, so you can Google Earthships and hear all about that. Alright. Cal Earth too is another good one in California, that's where they pioneered and are building these domes. Not this exact dome, but cool. Yeah, this style. Alright. And then lastly, how can people get involved with your adventure? How can they follow you on the internet or find you? Yeah. If they want to come find you. When we have a Facebook page, Lewis and the Fireflies is our label and we also have a website. So it's www.lewisandthefireflies.org, so O-R-G. And then I have an Instagram account that I use called Sustainable Presence. Alright. Yeah. So the links to all those will be in the description. Check it out. And the fireflies.org. Again, they're doing incredible things. A couple of people down here with $7,000 about turning it into having their own land off the grid, sustainable living and really living out their dreams.

Hello everybody. Welcome back. Let's do a little sneak peek inside the 99 question mock exam package that I have for you. So if you go to dentall.com you will see the main website here. You will see a little area where I have for dental assisting students, dental hygiene students for a student academy and of course the most popular packages. I have tried to keep the website kind of easier to navigate so you won't see all of the courses right on the main website. But if you click through these categories you will see them.
