Thank you, Philippe, and thank you everyone for joining us today. As my co-chair mentioned, we have a fantastic group of speakers, and we're really looking forward to an engaging session. Feel free to post any questions as they present, and we'll try to get to those at the end of the session. So today we have, first of all, Professor Agnes Villanuejo. She is a Rwandan pediatrician who returned to Rwanda in 1996, two years after the genocide against the Tutsi. Since then, she has provided clinical care in the public sector, served the Rwandan health sector in high-level government positions, first as the executive secretary of Rwanda's National AIDS Control Commission, and then as permanent secretary of the Ministry of Health. She also served five years as Minister of Health in the country, and in addition, she co-founded the University of Global Health Equity, which is an initiative of partners in health that focuses on changing how healthcare is delivered around the world by training global health professionals who strive to deliver more equitable quality health services for everyone. We're very happy to have you today, Agnes. Next we have Dr. Obje for Agnam. He is a visiting research fellow at UNICRIS. Dr. Agnam is researching and writing a book chapter on regional health governance and also developing a capacity-building proposal on African perspectives on global health governance and diplomacy. Prior to this position, he was deputy director and head of governance for global health at the UN University International Institute for Global Health in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, where he is now principal visitor fellow. And also get to mention that this is also another UN University Institute that is partnered with UNIWIDER and UNICRIS. He is also an adjunct professor of law and legal studies at Colton University, Canada, and visiting professor at the Institute for Future Initiatives and University of Tokyo. Really great to have you also, Obje. Then finally, we have Dr. Roberta Andragetti. She is a regional advisor for the international health regulations in the WHO region of the Americas. In this capacity, she oversees the application, implementation, and compliance with the international health regulations in the Americas by providing technical support to member states and also ensuring coordination with global health related activities and other international organizations. Prior to this current position, Dr. Andragetti was coordinating alert and response operations and IHR-related activities in the WHO European region, as well as being a medical officer of the global alert and response team at WHO headquarters. She has coordinated and participated in responses to outbreaks related to a broad range of pathogens. And also prior to her assignment at WHO, she worked in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Nicaragua, Spain, Uganda, and the United Kingdom. Also very great to have you, Dr. Andragetti. So we're going to hear from three very well experienced speakers who are going to speak from their regions where they are working and have worked in the past. So we have Asia, Africa, and the Americas represented. And to start off, I think we can start with a broad question to see your views about which lessons can be drawn from the COVID-19 crisis about global health governance. And perhaps we can start with you, Agnes. Thank you, Anna, and thank you for having me. I think there are many lessons that we can learn from this pandemic. I will cite only three that are important in my point of view. First of all, understand the importance of health. Health is not a commodity. And health is at the heart of economic development. Second is the SDGs for health and inequities that is sure we are not on the path to fulfill. And third is the sad lack of solidarity pushing to the reflection of the need of self-reliance. So let's, for the first one, we can see how COVID-19, above the fact that it has caused more than 4.5 million deaths, has disrupted all sectors across the world. And the 2020 SDGs report show us that we have, we had a disruption of immunization that has never seen since the year 70s. School has been disrupted and when girls in some region of the world will be dropped out of school, we'll probably not go back to school easily. Third, our economy has been absolutely disturbed with more than 150 million people that will be pushed into poverty by the end of 2021. The second big is we have the inequities. COVID-19 has created no inequities, has just highlighted inequities. Inequities inside countries and inequities globally. Inside countries, we have seen that the poorest, the vulnerable have been more affected, more infected and died more. It's the case of black and brown people in UK and in the US. It's the case of homeless people, of people living in crowded conditions and the people working in informal sector in Africa. So, the third thing is the fact that COVID-19 has shown to the developing world that we should not rely on multilateral institution or high income countries. Today, we have only 3% of African population that is vaccinated against more than 60% in many high income countries. And just because, and people are vaccinated, people who are not at risk are thinking about a third booster when there is no major evidence, but while people at risk in the developing countries are not vaccinated. We start well with the idea of COVAX based on solidarity, but COVAX was so not supported by the countries who have committed to that. And today, if there is 3% of people vaccinated in Africa only, we have only 1.2% when we put all together the people living in low and mid income countries. And we are amnesic because all what we face with COVID, the world has faced it with the Spanish flu, lying to the population to undermine the situation and for political selfishness, poor people and vulnerable dying more, and the lack of solidarity that has increased the magnitude and the impact of COVID. So those are my three lessons, the important of health. The fact that inequities has been highlighted and we are very far to reach the SDGs for health and for equity. And the fact that the lack of global solidarity has to put each corner of the world to try to be self-reliance. And for this, I mean Africa have to manufacture drugs, vaccine and medical tools to be ready to face the next pandemic. Thank you, Anna. Thank you, Agnes. Really good reflections and a great way to get started our conversation. Obi, what are your views about the lessons that we can draw from the crisis for global health governments? I think you're still muted. You click the microphone button in the bottom of the screen. You should be able to unmute. Obi, can you hear us? Maybe that's a word. It might be good to refresh your browser. That's usually the first troubleshooting option. Well, perhaps while he does that, we can have Roberta answer the question about lessons drawn from the crisis. Thank you for having me and obviously what have we learned? We have learned that here we go again with the same set of gaps, with the same sets of hope and hope of taking corrective actions. And I'm working for the multilateral organization. Then we are basically under the microscope, if not under fire. And once again, yes, we sensed that there was a lot to learn from this pandemic and we embarked in this deja vu of lessons learning. In reality, we are identifying lessons. And as WTO, we have convened three panels to look into the COVID pandemic and, okay, lessons same as with the H1N1, same with the Ebola at another magnitude, and now the set of corrective measures. Here, are we really able to learn any lessons by putting in place, taking corrective measures? And I think the good news is during this pandemic is that countries, despite all the lack of solidarity, inequity that this pandemic has generated, even middle income and low income countries, were able, in some cases unexpectedly, to take the response in their own hands. At least, I think that what there was that learning from the side of the country of really being with the reality check, we cannot rely, if not on ourselves. And at the beginning of the pandemic, we have seen major decisions that were taken by national authority against, thankfully, WTO advice with respect to non-travel restrictions.  They put locked people down. For me, and countries even, they showed national authority. They showed that during the first month, they were able to make progress that never happened over years of commitment. And this was the major, was really inspiring. And they should give confidence to the countries. And after all these panels, independent panels, whatever we have put in place at the international level, the good news is that countries, they said, look, basically, we have enough of you WTO telling us what to do. We set up a member state working group to decide what to take forward, what are the corrective actions that we should be taking. And now, as we speak, there is this member state working group on the strengthening, want to see how it goes of WTO in preparedness and response. And they're looking mainly at three areas, governance and leadership. And what does governance mean? And they're looking to governance of WTO itself and they're claiming a more oversight and steering role at WTO governing bodies level. And in terms of leadership, they're even considering some adjustment to the DG position. And they're looking also at the financing set up of WTO and technical tool. And this is a very good news that there was this ownership taken by countries. I really hope that it's taken forward. But at the same time, the same group of countries, like the ones that Agnes was referring to, under other umbrella like the G7, the G20, they're organizing and they're shaping and visualizing a different global architecture for preparedness and response. Then now the challenge is, can we have governance without leadership? Can we have parallel leadership and governance mechanism for public health preparedness and response? And we saw how we ended up this time with inequity, lack of solidarity. And this, I don't know, this is an issue. I don't know maybe something that we should not learn. And this is my contribution. Thank you. Thank you, Robert. So I have really great points about the importance of country ownership, but also how can we stop just learning and learning, but actually implementing change? And I'm sure later on we'll have more of an exchange about also the role of WTO in this when you bring up about parallel leadership and global health. Will be, I don't know if you have, what are your views are in terms of? Can you hear me now? Yes, we can hear you. I'm sorry about that. No problem. Okay. Because we have, the time is quite limited. And I really want to re echo some of the most of the points that Agnes met, but maybe from a different perspective. The future of global health governance in the context of the crisis that we face today, the COVID crisis, reflects, in my view, what most scholars have been writing about in the 90s about the need for a transition from international governance to global governance. There are two different things. When we talk about international governance, it means the centric Westphalia institution, we are nation states, members of the UN and the WHO and all of these intergovernmental processes. But because of the fact that, you know, the concept of the globalization of public health, which in the context of official diseases, disrespects the boundaries of nation states. This is part of what is done to respect national boundaries. They don't respect geopolitical territories. They don't carry national passports. They cross, they grow. And, you know, when this argument is met, I think the world was quite caught on our way because nobody believed that the virus, you know, in this day and age, will be capable of shorting the entire world east, west, north and south. Okay.  So the point that needs to be strongly emphasized is the fact that because we have such a high level of betrayal of trust, this has led to collapse of global health governance. And in the context of the world that we live in, the world of today, where, as I just mentioned, only a very tiny portion of populations in Africa and under developing, under developing regions have access to available COVID vaccines. What has happened, you know, to the bridges that we need to build, you know, across all of humanity? You know, so that's one question. Can a lightened self-interest drive global health diplomacy? Where we place a premium on every human life. It doesn't matter whether this life is Latin America, in the Caribbean, in South Africa, in Southeast Asia, in Europe. So these are the questions. How do we actually, you know, rebuild, you know, trust in global health governance? And doing this would entail the impact of our mental institutions, international governmental institutions. Collaborating, you know, with non-state actors. There's no way, you know, we can leave this job, you know, for the U.S. system, for instance, actually mentioned. So we need to step outside. And then today we're talking about vaccines. There are serious questions about research and development. Okay. This is, these are goods produced in the, by the private sector. And questions about intellectual property, questions about patents. And once you patent a product, you and I know what is going to happen, you know, the next is profit maximization. Okay. So corporations don't actually, they are primary, you know, primary stakeholders or the shareholders. They want to make sure that, you know, business is good. And there's no charity, really. She mentioned COVAX. COVAX, one of the mistakes you can make in global health governance is to, is to subject the lives of hundreds of millions of people to, to a governance like it is a dispute on charity. Okay. It's pure charity. So we donate, you know, vaccines that you don't need. And in the context of what has happened, you know, again, in response to the COVAX, when we had three major vaccines, you know, in the West, say, in North America, Canada, U.S., most of Europe. And there were safety issues about AstraZeneca, for instance. So most of the countries were, you know, going for Pfizer and for Moderna. Okay. In the U.S., Johnson and Johnson is not yet approved.  So, so these are some of the ethical questions that we need to ask. And asking these questions would need to bring, you know, entire government institutions together on the table with non-statutors. And that is when we have to begin to build an effective global health governance mechanism that addresses the needs of the most vulnerable people in developing countries. Okay. So the second point that is related to this is the fact that the COVID crisis, like Agnes mentioned, is not just a health issue. There's now series and series of reports and research that has come out in the past one year that specifically point to the fact that we now face the triple crisis in so many countries. Okay. COVID has, first of all, most of the health crisis. Secondly, it has reversed most of the gains that are made in propagation of extreme poverty, which is the most important SDG. Okay. And the climate crisis in so many countries has also complicated, you know, the rising debt. So we have, you know, a triple crisis now facing most of the underdeveloped and developing countries, the lower middle-income countries. So how do you, how do we actually, you know, reverse this trend? Because it's not only there's a report, there's a research that was done by the Dachamastro Foundation in Osawa, which is very persuasive. I mean, I can send the links, you know, to that, you know, so if you read that, you see where they've done excellent studies in countries in Africa, in Latin America, in the Caribbean, in Southeast Asia, showing how, you know, the impact of COVID on the SDGs, you know, there's now a reversal of some of the goals, some of the gains better on some of those goals. So I want to conclude by saying that one of the lessons we've learned is that, you know, all the stakeholders, national states, international organizations, non-state actors, the global philanthropic community, they have to sit down and think about, you know, how to build bridges, to build back trust in global health governance, to inject the principles of, you know, enlighten self-interest in global health diplomacy. It is lacking at the moment, and we need to revisit that. Thank you very much. I'm looking at my watch also, and I see that time is progressing. I think we have time for a second round of exchanges, but I would suggest that we use this time to do two things at the same time. I think you can use the time that is remaining to react to your colleagues or to comment on what the other panelists were saying, but at the same time, it would also be good if you could address our second question, which is a bit more specific, which was about the role that regional organizations could play, should play, have been playing, have not been playing during this crisis. So it would be good also to have your view on this, the role of that regional level, I mean, the super regional, the super national regional level within the overall architecture. I know that Roberta has some critical views about this. We have been talking about this yesterday, but perhaps we can start with Agnes again first, so that we hear her views on the African regional organizations and their role that they are playing or should be playing, according to Agnes. Thank you, Philippe. I think that the regional organizations are crucial. And I just want to say that Africa should think about which one is good for Africa. And this pandemic has shown us that CDC Africa was our best ally. Even last pandemic when of Ebola, that killed 11,000 people. The first reaction globally came from African Union. So African Union has now a strong CDC, Africa CDC, and us in Africa, we should develop and follow that. It's good for global health security. I no longer count on the Western world to help me. No, they will let me die. I know that I've seen that. So I will be saved by what is there in Africa, having a strong say on the table to say this to do, this is not to do. So global health security can be achieved by no country alone, no region alone, because even now, by blocking Africa to get access to vaccine or other low-income country, we are going to have variant that will respond to no vaccine and the rich country will die again. So not following science, as it has been said now, and even not following WHO advice, we are going to pay that very highly. Second, regional entities like African Union or CDC Africa will help regulate. I want to recall that the first, there was a meeting of African Ministry of Health at the first case in Africa under the leadership of CDC, and the continent has won, decided to go for the good measure. And that's why Africa has not been so much, has behaved well. And it's something that I'm very happy to have seen that Africa can count on itself to pass through a catastrophe like this one. Don't forget that they were expecting 10 million deaths in Africa and the destruction of everything. This was the Western provision. So governance, regulations and support of each country originally, and also will help procure and distribution of medical tools that will save the population in Africa. Without CDC, you know that even when we put money on the table, Western manufacturing was even not considered our orders. And even now, with the vaccine, we have pay AstraZeneca, we have pay Pfizer, 3.4 million doses we pay to Pfizer as a country. And we are still served after Western countries who put their order after us. So ordering, distribution, manufacturing, regulation, governance, yes, regional entities are needed. But the weakness of the WHO is that WHO is not backed by head of state. CDC Africa is directly backed by head of state. WHO should, because ministers of health are there, but let me tell you, I have been a minister of health and my colleagues, most of them doesn't report to the country when they go to Geneva for a meeting. CDC Africa, they report directly to the assembly of head of state. So we should revisit the global architecture of governance to serve better the people. Thank you. Thank you. Shall we continue with Obie? Yes, just again, in the interest of time, I wanted to comment on the Africa CDC, but Agnes has done that most excellently. But just wanting to reiterate the fact that it was just the Africa CDC was a product of the lessons from Ebola, okay? Instead of we know what happened in Sierra Leone, Liberia, Guinea, and the fact that WHO was very slow in responding to those emergencies in those three countries, conflict countries, and didn't declare Ebola a public health emergency of international concern almost eight months after what happened in those countries took place. So the Africa CDC basically is a very good candidate in terms of galvanizing support. In the context of what the WHO DG himself, Dr. Tedros, has called the vaccine apartheid, to I'm just quoting him, that's what he used that term when he was addressing the G20 summit, that we now have vaccine apartheid with respect to limited access to different regions of the world. So in the context of this, vaccine nationalism versus vaccine protectionism, a regional institution like the Africa CDC can actually be strengthened by African governments to address this lacuna, the gap in access to vaccines. You can not just start producing vaccines overnight, okay? This is something that takes time, plans are put in place, the infrastructure. But when the vision is there, and as the political will of the 54 African countries, we can actually begin that journey. And I think in terms of the way that I've read most of the things that the Africa CDC is doing, on the policy plan is off to an excellent start. And I think, again, sometimes we learn from crisis. So maybe this COVID crisis, maybe the lessons from this vaccine apartheid is now galvanizing it to even do more or to put its house in order in terms of looking into the potential, the future, the present and the future global health crisis. What are the things I also want to make, the point I also want to make about the Africa CDC is that we've got this, maybe Roberto will talk about that, that's our area, the international health regulations, which I was fortunate, when I was at WHO in 1999, I was part of the team that drafted the IHR 2005, under the leadership of David Thurman, who was then the head of WHO in facial disease cluster. So the concept of declaring an outright public health emergency of international concern was a novel idea at that time. It was seen as a radical idea. In the 1999 to 2001, we were five weeks, this draft of the new IHR. But it's become since 2005, the major regulatory tool that WHO has. Yes, there's a lot of criticism of the IHR by the independent panels that have been set up since COVID. But rules are rules. If you have treaties or frameworks or regulations, they can provide evidence. So we have to have some form of space within those regulations for the WHO, the DG for instance, to be able to convince his scientific advisors to assess the situation and make a decision whether to declare that particular outbreak, public health emergency of international concern. And this is where the Africa CDC is actually, if you look at the vision, there's a link. So whatever is happening at the international level of WHO, the IHR mechanisms, cannot effectively be linked with the policy framework of the Africa CDC in terms of building surveillance, in terms of building the capacity for health security within the continent. So I see this synergy. And I think it's a very important thing to have the synergy between the vision of the Africa CDC and the WHO's international health regulations. And it's something that I think should be supported in order to enrich the capacity of international institutions to be able to achieve their mandates. Thank you very much. And then, Roberta, it's your turn. Final word in this round. Thank you. Now, regarding the role of regional organizations, I'm now sitting in an office in a region which, praise, is very proud of the Pan Americanisms. But paradoxically, since I've been here, I've seen all these moving parts of sub-regional economic integration mechanisms popping up in the Americas. And I can't even keep track of how many I've seen emerging, disappearing, reshaping. And this because in the different regions of the world, we have a very different level of maturity and governance, which are underpinning these mechanisms. We go from an EU-like situation with all the defects that we know to a situation like the Americas, where every other day we have something new popping up. And when we talk to the countries, the answer is always, ah, we have to have a sub-regional approach, a regional approach. And then I say, but how do you characterize a sub-regional approach in terms of preparedness and response, radio silence? Then we are in this situation where we are dealing the fact of primarily with political entities and these political entities that in terms of crisis, they step into technical ground and as an organization, we are interacting on technical issues with political entities. And we are in the situation of substitutions. We end up in competing for resources. And it's really, really hard to understand where the complementarity between multilateralism and sub-regional entities is, at least in this region of the Americas. In Europe, I can see the role of the EU, the type of the interaction that the EU has in Africa. I can see that there is a unique technical institution like the African CDC under the African Union that has a certain role. But here in this region of the Americas with all this Pan-Americanism, paradoxically, we have all these bits and pieces, these mosaics of changing institutions. And it's really, really hard. And I've been here in this region 10 years, basically. And at the end, I've always been with this wall of radio silence. What does it mean? And having to sort of stepping in. In terms of regional approach, yes, we have all learned the hard way, as Agnes and Obie said. I think a good, we can call it like that, outcome of this crisis is that now countries in the Americas, the Central and South Americas and the Caribbean, they are engaging into a long medium, long-term process to establish the manufacturing capacity for vaccines and other medical supplies. And it's not the first time that there is this attempt of self-sufficiency, establishing self-sufficiency. Let's see how it goes. But at least this seems a solid step forward with solid foundation. I can only keep my fingers crossed. Thank you. Over. Thank you very much. I think indeed that there is, there is on the one hand a good case that can be made indeed for this regional approaches. When the issue is cross-border, is about communicable diseases, is related to the mobility of people. I think there is a good case to be made for regional action. Also, what Agnes also mentioned also at the level of the production of medicines, vaccines in this case, infrastructures and so on. I think there is also a good case to be made from a normative perspective. But I also agree with Roberta, of course, that the reality of regional institutions is very different from one region to the other. And in some cases there is indeed a sort of natural leadership that exists at the level of one relatively or strong regional institution. Whereas in other regions there is, it's not the case. There are overlapping organizations with overlapping mandates, which are, as you say, often in addition, rather political than technical. And so, which of course makes it much more complex. And also then from your perspective and the paho, in your case, I think it must be a challenge indeed also then to engage with these organizations. So no, thank you very much for your insights. I'm watching my clock again. And unfortunately, I think we have come to the end of this session already. It's a pity. I think we could go on for another hour. But I think the final session is immediately following this one. So what we could do and we will talk with Anna about this, what we could do is try to draw some conclusions from this session and perhaps put it in writing also so that people who are not able to attend this session could also, let's say, have an idea of, let's say, the conclusions and then the ideas that were circulated here. I don't know whether Anna, you want to add something at this point? Well, I just want to thank our speakers and the audience as well. I think when we organize this, we suspected we would have a very rich discussion. And as you say, we could have kept going. But my final thoughts are really discussing the complexity of global health governance, the inequities that have been uncovered by COVID-19, and also the differences between regions in terms of how regional organizations, the work takes place and the difficulties of trying these collective actions within regions. I just want to thank everyone again and we will be in touch. I hope we can at least draft the main conclusions from this panel together or organize another and we can continue this discussion. Bye-bye. Thank you very much.


Hello and welcome to the session. My name is Mansi and I am going to help you with the following question. The question says, show that the statement for any real numbers a and b a square equals to b square implies that a is equal to b is not true by giving a counter example. So to solve this question we shall apply the concept of counter examples which is used to disprove the statement. In this method we shall give an example of a situation where the statement is not valid that means we will give an example to counter the given statement. So this is the method of counter examples which is also the key idea for the given question. So let us start with the solution to this question. Now we are given that a square equals to b square implies that a is equal to b for real numbers a and b. Now we see that a square equals to b square implies that a is equal to plus minus b. This implies a equals to b or a is equal to minus b. Therefore for any real numbers a and b, a square equals to b square implies that a is equal to b is not fully true as a can be equal to minus b also. Hence a is equal to minus b is a counter example. So this is our answer to the question. I hope that you understood the question and enjoyed the session. Have a good day.


Hi, this is Rob from Arcosanti, an urban laboratory in the desert of Arizona. At Arcosanti we work on various innovative projects to improve living conditions in urban environments. Today I'm in the Arcosanti camp and I'm going to show you how to build a geothermal air conditioning unit. It can be built mostly off things that you find around your house or can source from friends for basically no cost and it requires such little power to use that a very small solar panel will be all you need. So this is the super cube here. It's a 12 foot by 12 foot by 12 foot space obviously. So the place we're going to be installing this geothermal cooler is in the super cube here in camp. It's a 12 foot cube space. It should be about the right size to be cooled with an apparatus that's the size that we're installing. The concept of geothermal is very simple. You can see here we've dug a hole that's about 1.5 meters deep. The temperature of the ground here stays about 55 degrees. That will keep water in a big tub that we have down there at that temperature. And then the way it works is air is pulled out of the top of the cube down through a pipe into a homemade pump that we'll show you momentarily down there into the ground. The groundwater cools the air, it bubbles up and then is run through a second pipe into the bottom of the super cube. So I'll show you some of the components now for how this works. First we have a five gallon drum. This is the same type that you can get from any sort of grocery store for water. This is the perfect size hole up top for I believe one and a quarter inch pipe, your standard PVC size. Also we've drilled a secondary hole for the intake. This is the main pump mechanism of the geothermal air conditioning unit. It's all by things that we found around site here. Really simple how it works. Next we created a framework out of plywood and metal to hold the top.  The hollow part inside is sealed through a bike tire which is connected to the buckets through zip ties. It creates a really nice seal. On the bottom there's a T for PVC which is put in and this is where the intake and the outtake of the pump go through. Up top we have an old windshield wiper motor from a car. You can use any radial motor. It doesn't need to be very strong. We found that there was lots of these lying around that we could just source from the junk pile. And then to convert that radial motor into something that pulls the bellows up and down here we just added a vertical driveshaft. Connected to this also is soldered a little nine volt power adapter so that it can be plugged into the wall. Now the only other real part to how this works is the valves themselves. The valves are important because they keep the air all going in the same direction. If the valves weren't here when this pushes up and down it would just pull and push air out both sides of it. The valves we made out of these little pieces of PVC and this is beneficial because since they're going to sit about right here and right here on either side we're going to be able to have access to them and then change them out in the event that they fail and stop working. I'll show you how these work. We did two design versions here. In the event that you have PVC that fits inside a larger diameter PVC the second design will be better because it's more simple. In the event you're just going to put the valve straight into pipe itself how that works is you can cut out a ring of plywood like that and then that ring is encased through a bike tire which creates a firm seal against the PVC. Then there is two millimeter rubber which is cut out in a circle and then duct tape to the top and that creates a very low tech type of seal. Now what we learned in this process is that we had PVC pipe that would fit inside the diameter pipe that would go inside our T so to make things more simple all we had to do was cut a circle put duct tape on it and then that will fit inside and work as a valve just through gravity so that's pretty much how it works let's assemble it now we'll put the dirt on it and get it going. So this right here is the step of the putting the geothermal system together you can see it's just filled with water we've put duct tape around the PVC up here to create a tight fit and then also when we're filling this up we're going to put gravel around here because gravel since it's larger has less chance of actually getting through any of the gaps that exist between the PVC and the water tank so let's do it. So the intake for the hot air is currently in the jug down here you can see when we had it come up we opted to run it underground a little bit just for better aesthetics now this is the piece that is going to return the cooler air in it's going to fit right into the top of the water jug like that really tight on purpose looking away so now we have both of the pipes into the water jug down here the hot air pipe which is this one comes in and then that goes fully down into the water because we want those bubbles to then come up and be cooled by the water this one which is going to take the cooler out just sits enough in the top center that way the little air pocket there where the water bubbles go to all collect and then it would naturally gets pushed out sizing can be a little tricky but once it's all down you can take it and you can duct tape the seals a little bit more which is what we're going to do right now very very easy and quick to do.


Hey, this is Brett, and this 2020 Chevy Silverado 3500 Crew Cab Long Box Dually High Country is stock number 13331Z. I am here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, your new and used heavy duty truck headquarters. This 2020 Chevy Silverado 3500 has a 6.6 liter Duramax diesel engine. It's the L5P engine, puts out 445 horsepower, and it's paired up with the Allison heavy duty 10 speed automatic transmission. This truck has been fully safety and inspected by our service shop, it has a fresh oil and filter change. All the fluids have been checked and topped off, and this truck is 100% ready to go. I'm going to go all the way around inside, underneath, start it up, and take a look under the hood to give you the most accurate representation of the truck that I can. Iridescent pearl tricode is the color, and I shoot all my videos in 4K, so if you have HD capabilities, turn them on now because it is your best way to check out the quality condition options, and of course, cleanliness of the truck before seeing it in person.  The cab and doors are in excellent condition as well. I didn't see any dents or dings. The fender is in excellent shape, and if you like the video, you can subscribe to my YouTube channel, which is youtube.com slash summit auto. Click the bell notifications, and you'll get updates on the videos I do each and every day here at Summit Automotive. This one comes with fuel, 22 inch painted and polished aluminum wheels, they're in really nice shape, and it has Nitto Ridge Grappler 35 by 12 and a half R22 LT tires on it. These tires, I would say, have probably about 70% of the tread left. Frame and underbody is exceptionally clean. This is a one owner clean title history, clean car fax out of Georgia. LED headlamps, LED running lights, and of course LED fog lamps. You get the painted front and rear bumpers on this truck. You also get the chrome tow hooks, and you get this kind of bronze finish to the grille part of the high country package. The hood's in really nice condition. It does have the true cowl induction, I'll show you how that works, and just a little bit. It does have the cab lights up top as well. Passenger side front fender looks good, and the passenger side wheel, no major scuffs or scrapes on there. Iridescent pearl tri-coats got just a little bit of metal flake to it. It's really a good color. Look over for a white diamond, I think was the old GM white pearl. Good looking color. As you go down this side of this 2020, take note of how clean that body is, how reflective and mirror-like that paint is. I take these HD videos, so if you are far away or even if you're close by and you just cannot make the trip down, but you're still interested in purchasing the vehicle, you can see the truck, hear the truck, and have confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here. So when you do get here, there's absolutely no surprises, and you can make a smart and informed buying decision from wherever you're at. If this video helps you make that buying decision, let your salesman know that you saw the video that was helpful and that Brett sent you. Back wheel, excellent condition as well, and the back tires have just as much tread as the front tires possibly even more tread than the front. Very underbody once again, exactly how you'd expect the truck from Georgia to look. Very little snow corrosion, and very, very clean. All our rockers and cab corners look good. Does come with nice factory chrome step bars, the side box steps, duly tubs all look really good. And coming around to the back, you'll notice you get the rear painted bumper with the rear bumper steps, back of parking sensors, no dents or dings on that full towing package, which includes receiver hitch and seven pin wiring. This one also has camera, auxiliary camera hookups for any trailer you'd want to put cameras on, and the tailgate is in really nice condition as well. This one also has a Rev Industries hard roll up tonneau cover. I didn't see any rips or tears on there, and it does have the power drop down tailgate. Comes with a very nice spring and bed liner, fifth wheel and goose neck prep package, LED bed lighting, seven pin and four pin wiring in the bed. And that bed liner goes onto the tailgate as well, which is really nice. And it is a power up tailgate as well, which is really a sweet thing. For full disclosure, this back wheel, just as nice as the rest, didn't see any scuffs or scrapes on any of the wheels. This one does have the telescopic tow mirrors. They have LED side lights, blind spot monitoring built in directional signals. They power telescope out, they power fold in, I'll show you that in just a second. Inside the High Country package gives you the black and brown leather interior. There are no rips, there are no tears on the seats. You also get the High Country stitched into the headrest. Seats are in fantastic condition, smells very clean inside this truck. Has auto headlamps, cargo lamps, fog lights, heads up display, tow mode, power windows, locks and mirrors, memory driver seat. And like I said, these mirrors do power telescope out. I always like showing both sides. So you know that both sides are working properly. And then they also power fold in like so and out. Take a quick look at the back seats. Back seats are just nice as front seats, no rips or tears back here. Does have the power sliding rear window with the built-in rear frost. These headrests do fold down for better visibility. There is storage behind the back seats here. And these back seats are heated on the outboard side. You get a USB-C, USB and a 12-volt power point. You also get the all-weather floor mats back here. Looks like it has a winter front with it and storage underneath the seats. Back doors are nice shape. Does have child safety locks on the back doors and the bottoms and inside of the doors all look fantastic. We'll hop inside, check out the miles, the radio and everything that this truck has to offer on the interior. You can see that this one has 32,830 miles. You do get that nice digital instrument cluster there. This one comes with the heated leather-wrapped steering wheel. You get Bluetooth and information center controls on the right. And you also get cruise controls, heated steering wheel controls. And I believe that's your adaptive cruise controls right there. Steering wheel is in excellent shape. Comes with the Chevy infotainment system. You get AM, FM and Sirius XM radio capabilities on this radio. It also has Bluetooth, of course, and then the factory navigation system. There's Highway 41. So you can see that that is working correctly. There's the Fond Lac airport. And then you have all your different apps on here, including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto. And then you can also check out your cameras on here. Notice you get the surround view camera, the front camera, the look behind camera, the side view camera. And then also you have your cargo cam. And then you can zoom in on your receiver hitch to get hooked up to your boat camper or trailer the first time, every time. So a lot of great stuff you can do with that radio and those cameras. Down here you're more tactile climate and volume and tune controls. Heated and cooled seat buttons, factory exhaust break, lane departure warning, parking sensors. You can power drop down or raise that tailgate. Hazard lights, stability control. That's for the plug-in that's in the bed of the truck that I missed showing you. Power drop down windows on all of them. Has the factory brake controller, USB-C, USB and another 12-volt power point. And then a 120-volt, 150-watt plug-in. You get a wireless cell phone charge pad, keyless entry with remote start, and power drop down tailgate buttons. Notice the wood grain trim on the sides. Pass, new side, floor mat and seat are in excellent condition. No rips or tears on there. Once again, like I said, it smells very clean inside this truck. The headliner is in great shape. And you do get the power sunroof. You also get home link buttons for your garage door security systems and lighting systems. On-star and SOS buttons, map lights, power sunroof and sliding rear window controls. And you get the auto-dimming mirror. This is also the rear view mirror camera, which does a video display of what's behind you while you're driving. So that's pretty neat. We wanted to show the tire and loaning information, stickers as well as the trailering information before we started up. GM's nice enough to provide us with that. And then there is your VIN sticker. All right, we're going to start it up and take a look under the hood. Check out all those LED lights as well. Starts right up. No check engine lights or anything like that. Your heads up display is right there in the windshield there's your speedometer. And then you can turn that camera on and it's a video display of what's going on behind you. So that's pretty sweet as well. Let me get all those fog lights and everything on. I would personally, there are those LED side lights. I would personally like to thank you for checking out the video today. And hopefully from this HD video, you've been able to verify the quality condition options and, of course, cleanliness of this truck all the way around inside and out. Cab lights look good. I would highly recommend this truck. It's in really nice shape. Under the hood, we have the 6.6 liter Duramax diesel engine. Engine base very clean runs, very smooth. Once again, this truck has been fully safe and inspected by a service shop. It has a fresh oil and filter change. All the fluids have been checked and topped off. This truck is 100% ready to go. So the cowl induction comes in there, goes right down there into your air cleaner. And that's how that works. And I would highly recommend this truck from a quality and efficient standpoint. I'd ship this one to California, Florida, Texas, New York, wherever. Really nice truck, really sharp, whoever's going to get it. It's going to be really happy with it. And to see more pictures of this truck or one of our other 550 new and used cars, trucks, SUVs, minivans, wranglers, halftones, three quarter tons, one tons, you name it.

Hello everybody and welcome to another hobby cheating video and today it's finally time for the 300th video we are going to do the ultimate metal paint showdown. If you know me, you know I love true metallic metals. I use it for my armies, I use it for competition pieces. I love the power, the shine, the look, the finish of true metallic metals and so today we're going to take 22 different steel metallic paints and put them in a head-to-head competition. Here is a quick overview of all the steel paints we will be looking at today. Is it every single steel paint on the market? No I'm sure there's a few I missed but darn it it's a heck of a lot of them and we're going to put them up in a head-to-head competition looking at sort of visible pigment, their shine and finish and ultimately their metaliness and see who comes out on top. So here we go. We have 22 identical shields, 22 different metallic paints and 22 little things of paint. We begin with a lead belcher. Round 1 is all about visible pigment and how easy it is to paint with it. So we start with lead belcher. It goes on pretty smooth. So looking pretty nice, decent enough sheen. Storm host silver is next up. Brighter opacity is one of the things I'm looking for in this first pass. With applying one coat am I going to get a clean application and am I going to get visible pigment showing? How hard is it? How smoothly does the paint flow? How effective does it cover the area? Now one of the reasons I want to test for all of these things right up front is because I don't have time to go two, three, five layers of metallics to get a metal shine. I've never understood why we put up with that. Metal paints should be better than that. There are plenty of metal paints on the market with an opacity that they will cover in one clean go that you can do one layer of it and get a nice solid coverage. No streakiness, no primer showing through. So let's see which ones stand up to the test. It should be fairly obvious to you just from watching this. Some of these are clearly at this initial test far superior. You can see how smooth and easy they go on and you can see how opaque they cover. An important thing to recognize here is that some of these paints are made from metal. So they have aluminum powder in them. Some of them are made from mica. Most cheap metal paints we use have mica pigments and mica is never going to look as reflective as metal. That's going to come into effect later when we look at shine and finish and metaliness. The other important thing to recognize here is that some of these are what we would think of as sort of traditional model paints. Whereas some of these are air paints meaning they've been pre-thinned and they're in some kind of balance where they're more ready to go through an airbrush. Now the important part about that for our purposes, most of the time when you buy air paints you're just getting less pigment and it's kind of a worse paint. Not always, but most of the time. However, with metallics, because it's such a heavy pigment, whether mica or aluminum, the reality is those pigments are very large. They don't grind down as small as other types of pigments. And so when they need to go through an airbrush, the airbrush paints usually have a much finer ground pigment. This means that for our purposes they're going to look a lot better because smaller, finer ground pigment is actually what makes for a better looking finish. It allows you to distribute the pigment load more evenly across the miniature. It also allows for a more even coverage. When you have larger pigment in a bad suspension it can't as easily lock into the chemical bonds that the acrylic medium is creating and it looks splotchy like this speed metal that just let me down here so hard. Just terrible coverage. As you can see from each one of them I'm trying to apply them under the same light with the same brush on the same surface so we get as close as possible to a real head to head test. This one by the way is from Badger Minitair. It's kind of hidden here but it's their metal look pure silver. So there you go. Another one from Badger in Gun Alloy. This one is another one that's just bad. It just fails right out of the gate. All of these paints were mixed and shaken on a vortex mixer before this paint was dumped, each evenly all with agitators in them to try to make sure that they were all ready to go and it would be a nice, fair, even test with well shook metal paints. So as you can see a whole lot of different metals here and right away just from the initial coverage you can see some of these going so much smoother and some of these cover so much more. So right away we're going to produce a couple winners and have our first cuts in this first round. We're going to see who are our semi finalists because some of these paints not even worth picking up no farther. I needed one test with them to know I never wanted to paint with them again. So who are our semi finalists? I cut it down to basically 13. We're going to do a little fly by here and then we're going to look at these are all the losers by the way. Everybody that I struck out in round one.  Now it's the winners. Leadbelcher solid coverage, a little bit of visible pigment, but went on easy enough. Good base tone all in all, not too bad. Stormhost silver, brighter, better actually as a layer paint, maybe because the nature of the thinning than the base. Still some visible pigment, but we'll evaluate that in a moment. The Vallejo metal color steel, one of the all time bests, went on like a dream, easily, easily covered everything. No problems whatsoever. Vallejo metal color silver, even brighter, even more opaque, really has a nice shine to it as we'll see and evaluate. Gun gray, which is the Vallejo model air. Again, pretty solid coverage, not quite as good, but not as much visible pigment because of the smaller round. The steel, however, is the far superior Vallejo model air metallic. As you can see, you get this unbelievably smooth application of it. Looks great. Game air chainmail silver. You can see some of the streakiness that happened there. That's one of the problems. I don't know if maybe the games have a different mix, but you could see how that one had it. Now, the game air silver looked much more like the steel, so it was much better coverage, much brighter overall. I liked it better. Army painter plate mail did better than I expected, honestly, but still you can see that streakiness in the metal and there is some visible pigment. Next up, natural steel from AK3rd Gen. This is probably one of the lowest in the batch. It just barely made the cut. You can really see the streaks and there's still some primer showing through. Warcolors Nostalgia 88 chainmail.  I was super surprised by how good this was. It really harkens back to the metallic paints of old. Now, a new paint, Green Stuff World Anthrax metal. Great coverage, nice even layers, no streaking. Really nice paint. Quicksilver, again, this was down at the bottom with the natural steel. It did cover, but look at all that unbelievable streakiness that just did not settle at all. So now it was time to cut to the semi-finals based on shine and finish. We're gonna fly over all of these and you can really see that there are distinct differences. Some of these look very faded with their streaky or they just have a lot of heavy visible pigment or they just didn't cover well or really just don't have a high metallic shine. Like when the light moves over them, as you can see here, the specular lighting fails. So time for the finalists. So this is our five finalists. Chainmail from nostalgia 88. As you can see as I rotate that, look at that metal shine just travel across it. Look how deep dark the shadows get. It's not just about the light, it's about the shadows as well. Vallejo Metal Color Silver, which was just so bright and reflective, just this highest white light that really, really has a strong reflection. Vallejo Metal Color Steel, which I've long been a fan of, especially as a base coat. I think it just, you look at this and look how strong and even and smooth that is. It's like painting with liquid metal. Both of the Vallejo Metal Colors use aluminum powder so you get a much more metallic shine. This steel is really strong, but it's really flat. It's such a strong shiny thing, but look at how little shadow is created. That's because it actually has a very low shine. So it's not reflecting the shadow colors. I turn it towards the black. Finally, the Anthrax Metal, pretty nice. I would call it middle to pack, but it did a lot better than I expected for a new metal paint. All in all, I was pretty impressed, but it was time to put these five in the head-to-head final showdown.  This is primed and I wanted to just get a nice solid sweep of it. All five of them right next to each other to see how they work. What's fascinating is how well the steel color covers, and I assume that's why people love it so much in Vallejo Model Air. My problem is it doesn't look like metal. It has a huge, huge opacity, but has a very poor shine and reflection. You can see there's just no shadow to it. The Vallejo Metal Colors both cover really, really well and have that shine, but also the chain mail. I was really impressed by how it does. It went on there nice and smooth, not getting a huge amount of streakiness on the flat surface. And here you can see all five of them with their appropriate shields. And as I rotate it around, look at how much some of these reflect, you know, super bright or create shadows. Look at both the shield and the streak. And you can really see the difference in the shine. Don't just look at the light. Look at the shadows that are cast as I move it around. Those shadows are what creates the illusion of real metal. When something's flat and just bright, it doesn't look metallic. So here is our final five in order. Vallejo Metal Colors Silver, Steel, Anthrax Metal, Nostalgia 88, Chain Mail, and then Vallejo Model Air Steel. Those are the winners. So there we go. Vallejo Metal Colors Silver and Steel were at the top because in the end they had the least visible pigment. They had the highest opacity, the most shine, and the most metal look largely due to their pigment. But all of these, all five of these were really nice. And I think you could use any of them on your miniatures to success. But if you have the chance to pick it up, the Vallejo Metal Colors Silver range, the Steel range, the Vallejo Metal in general, really proved itself as a cut above in this completely scientific and objective test. But I do hope everybody enjoyed this little showdown of metal paints and hopefully gave you something to think about when you're making your purchases. If you liked it, give it a like, subscribe for more hobby cheating in the future. But as always, we thank you for watching and we'll see you next time.


Using Lumia, I don't know if you've heard of Lumia. They tie it, it's an API program that ties into the Twitch API and the Philips Hue Light API to where it can hook into chat and also trigger on events. So subs, bits, supposedly tips, but I haven't gotten tips working. Whenever they happen, the lights go crazy. I got different effects I can use. And when I get my next set of lights, which should be an LED strip, it should be more dramatic. It should be you'll see it behind me instead of light in front of me. All right, this is looking clean. This is looking so fresh and so clean, clean. This doesn't look like Monster Hunter. Okay, so Tree Farm is looking okay. I just need to light it up now. So that means probably these, like so probably a good way to do it. Proper landscaping chat. So landscaping stream. Okay, let's fix this up. Who is Arvagar and who is that? Oh, okay. Get out the weed wacker, I know, right? What time is it? Cause I want to have the game on. Game on! Cause college football is on today. And I want to have it up on my tablet. I set it to record, but I didn't see what time it came on. Yeah, I had the feeling there wouldn't be enough interest. Not a lot of sports ball enthusiasts in the ATB community. Even though you don't have to be a fan of football to enjoy fantasy football. You're watching two games. Yeah, I need to get my tablet and just like prop it up. I don't have a tablet stand, but. Hacking! Why'd you guys give me this power? See, I was like all like legit, like non-hack boy. But now you give me like the magic, Harry Potter magic wand of daytime. So I just type in the command in this day. Fantasy football is D&D for jocks. You don't have to be a jock, man. Like I've talked to quite a few nerds, if you will, if you want to use that word. Nerds or geeks that have had no clue about what was football, what it was. But when you look at it from a pure statistical standpoint, you don't really need to know anything about the actual game of football. Just need to know who's producing the best stats. It's just numbers, man. That's all it is. And, wait, why did I do it like that? Yeah, two point hospital, if you can. Yeah, I don't know where it is. It's sitting here somewhere, I think. I think it's over here in this pile of junk.  I think it needs to be charged though. Yeah, it does. I will charge it. I can put it on my phone for now though. Let's see, who's playing? There is Alcorn State of Georgia Tech, Houston at Rice, James Madison, North Carolina State, Coastal Carolina against South Carolina. Let's watch FAU versus Oklahoma. I think I'm gonna watch that game on Hulu Live. Football on the phone, football on the phone. Don't worry, you guys won't hear it. Put it right here in my coffee cup. Hey, that way I can just glance down and look at the score. FAU, the real national champs. Ooh, 24, what was that? Okay, Smores, that little one second could get me in trouble, you're right. Without explicit permission.  This is Maryland and Texas actually. What the heck? That's not what I tapped on. That is not what I tapped on. FAU at Oklahoma, that's what I did. Is that game over? Ooh, okay, 56 to seven, my bad. Oh my goodness. Florida Atlantic. Oh, was that Jubilis? Wow, somebody hack your Russian, or your, what you call it, account. Amazing. Okay, so now that we got our tree farm done, chat. I need to take a break. I haven't taken a break and I've been live for almost three hours, so I'll be back in about three minutes. If you are Twitch Prime user, please disable ad block because I do run ads on my three minute breaks.  It's still live. If you disable ad block, I'll still get credit for the ads, okay. So thanks so much for watching, guys. I shall return.  There it is. I forgot to do camera stuff. I'll be back. I'm back. Thanks for waiting. Appreciate it. WB, AKA, welcome back. Okay, so now we have to establish a new strip mine, because apparently, my strip mine is, Oh! DVRN hitting the button. Thank you so much, man. Na boy, prog duck, na boy, prog duck, na boy, prog duck, na boy, prog duck, na boy, prog duck, na boy, prog duck, na boy, prog duck, na boy, prog duck, na boy, prog duck, na boy, prog duck, na boy, prog duck, na boy. Yes. Thank you so much. Everybody show them some love in the chat. Please, if you, even if you're not a sub, exclamation point love, you can type that and the bot will spam all the sub love emotes. Thank you so much DVRN for the biggest tip of the day. It's not showing at the bottom, but that's the biggest tip of the day. $50. We also got a couple of $50 gift and sub packages from Bert Gravy. But thank you so much, man. That helps a lot. That's, that's, thank you so much, man. Everybody show them some love in the chat. Thank you, man. I appreciate the support. Thank you so much, man. Thank you so much. Wow, thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Okay, can I jump down here and live? Yes. So this is my old strip mine. It wasn't completely finished, but I did a decent job down here. And you see, no mail is, no mail is down here doing his thing. So I'm just going to clean up so he can do his thing. I'm going to get my stuff out of here. But there's a chest here.  Can I even get to this? Oh, I almost died. Gulp. That was close. That was close. You can still switch between sitting and standing. Yes, I do. Why this turn off? Who would want to an ad on my phone when I'm standing by? Good phone. Good phone. All right, let's see if I can place this safely without breaking my bones. All right, can I, I can't fit all of this. Do I even want any of this? No, I don't. I don't want any of that. It's fine. It's fine. So if I do this, can I pickaxe while holding down shift? Yes. I don't want people to make the same mistake I made on that clip when I jumped down the hole and hit that one little block that was sticking out. All right, so what I'll do is I'll just put a trap door here. Let's see. So if I do this and just put a trap door at the back here and then, actually, is that going to be deep enough? This might be a little weird. I don't have a ladder on me. Think about this a second. All these freaking flowers. Okay, I'm okay. Do I have any mods? We have server side mods, spigot mods, and they are, we do have some, yes. I just need a couple of ladders. So I can, I can gut this, put a little baby lad, wait.  Let's drive me mad, chat. I got so many flowers and junk in my inventory. I wonder why that is? Cause somebody just plants random flowers everywhere and it constantly fills up my inventory. I am not frustrated at all. The green book is some kind of a crafting manual. I don't know how to use this. I've never seen this before, but some kind of crafting manual. I don't know. I need a trap door. Let's see. Just quality of life mods or game changers. There are a couple of game changers, hacking. One of the game changers is Vayne Miner. So for example, I can come over to this tree, hold down shift and basically chop down the whole tree. So that's kind of a game changer. It's kind of strong. Not huge, but it's kind of strong. We also have rapid leaf decay, which is not that big of a deal. We've got this thing called a tinker, a mine tinker, which I think is like tinker's construct, where you can level up weapons and or level up items and modify them. Those can be potential game changers as well. I think we have dirt turned off. Oh my gosh. Then we got dirt turned off for the Vayne Miner. But yeah, I need to actually not look at this. I need to do some more landscaping. I need to flatten this off here and kind of extend this out at least to this house, which is gonna require a lot more dirt. Okay, dirt is off. Yeah, this creeper and I have an appointment.  I saw the whole thing. Works on sand and gravel. Okay, thank you. I'm kind of glad dirt is off. What time the Florida game is? I said it to record, I think it's 330. Yes, I'm a Gator alum, so. We're suffering through a really low point in Gator football. Yeah. Hey, Enlis, can you post that link again to the modifiers? The heck is this? Emeralds? Wow, gotta find me a village. Thank you, let me check this out. Auto smelt, beheading, poisonous, ender, shulking, glowing, infinity, self-repair, chance to repair two when breaking blocks. Silk touch, I remember that. Luck, extra modifier, fiery bow, sword, haste, power. Yeah, so those are the modifiers that we currently have on the server with Mind Tinker. All right, I can't. This inventory is getting on my nerves, man. I am constantly out of space, so I need to just put some, I'm gonna put some chests in that old mine house, and, and we're gonna put some chests in here.  So, cigarette out of space, man. So, I do need dirt, because that's what I'm farming. Okay, don't need that, don't need that. I don't know why I have a furnace. Don't need all this food. Geez, so much junk. Okay, I feel better about my life now. Okay, we were getting dirt. Tree farm's looking good.  You will become bacon. All right, so the goal is to basically fill off this block with dirt. So I need to go siphon dirt from somewhere else. Dude, don't, all right. So this is the nicest way possible.

What's the word y'all? So this morning I woke up and I told myself, this is gonna be the first day of the NBA season that I don't watch any basketball, right?  You know what I'm saying? So today was the day I was like, you know, we were gonna chill with my fiance, which is weird to say aloud, but it's official, and not really worry about basketball. Well, she went to bed a little bit early, so that allowed me to watch like, what, the last five minutes of OKC versus Lakers? Yeah, I'm so happy that happened. I'm not the ending of the game, but the fact that I got to watch the ending of the game. Like, she gives Alexander, we all know this, super bad man, to pull up from the logo with a minute to go early in the shot clock, up by three, ridiculous. Paul George would say that's a bad shot, but it went in, so it don't really matter. And just the ending of this game was just so amazing.  I will miss Russell Westberg when he retires in 40 years. You know what I'm saying? But that's all the basketball I consume today. This video is supposed to be about signing the light on some players that you may not even realize is having a really good season. You know what I'm saying? Some lesser known under-the-radar type players, right? I don't want to spend this episode talking about Jimmy Butler because he's better this year than his previous years, or Paul George because maybe he's not getting the media buzz even though he's having a great season. But I want to go even deeper. I made a tweet to ask people on Twitter who was some players that are not getting a lot of recognition. And we're going to mention some of the people in those tweets, but there was one player, oh no, no, no. Two players that are the real reason I'm making this video, but we're going to have more than just two. Let's start off with person number one, okay? This player, I didn't even really know existed until we got to Summer League. That player is Herb Jones. Herb Jones was drafted out of Alabama this season. I found out that he was a part of that that Collins Sexton Alabama team that ended up having to play three on five. Well, Herb Jones got ejected from that game because he was ready to scrap with the people in Minnesota because there was some tension going on. He got ejected and eventually made his way to the league. Now Herb Jones came into this regular season, first game of the year, he barely even played. Then Josh Hart went out with an injury and then now a guy that they drafted in the second round to be like this defensive specialist, maybe he has an NBA career, maybe he doesn't, is now propelled into the starting lineup and he started his first game of his NBA career as a starter was against my Chicago Bulls where I was in attendance and I watched him very diligently, first of all because he didn't have any accessory zone and he looked like a creative player that didn't have no VC. But secondly, because he was playing amazing defense on some of the better isolation players in the league with the Chicago Bulls when he was switched on to DeMar or switched on to Zach Levine. And in that moment, watching that game, I was like, I gotta keep my eye on this Herb Jones guy because I think he's gonna be a really good defender and God, he's been very good. Now he's a 23 year old rookie so he comes in pretty oldy, late bloomer type but I wanna show y'all some footage of this guy Herb clamping up some of the better players in the league. NBA, if you're watching this, please don't copy strike this, baby. Let me just, let me just had this just a little bit, just a little bit of footage, that's all I'm asking. Offensively, you don't actually, don't even ask about his offensive capabilities. He is here for defensive impact only. Y'all know if you've been around the channels for a long time, I am a sucker for a great defender. I'm one of those duels that will take defense over offense majority of the time and that's why I really go bare to one of my favorite centers in the league and he has been for a very long time. That's why Lou Dort is very high on some of my favorite players because if you can get down to the nitty gritty and stop an opposing team star player, that is a real gift because you gotta remember these players in the NBA are the greatest scores in the world. So when a guy like Herb Jones is guarding Julius Randall who just was an all NBA player and was the most approved player of the year and held his own, like I can't help but to be impressed. This dude was guarding college players. Now he has a super thin frame, but he's long, he's lanky and he plays very smart on the defensive side of the ball. The last couple of games, honestly, his offense has looked a little bit better but they don't ask him to do anything more than to guard the best player on the opposing team and he does that. Julius Randall's a bruiser. He's gonna use his body heavily. You see how skinny this young kid is and he held his own against Julius Randall. I know Julius Randall's just a guy for this one but look, now he's guarding every 48, gets over the screen and prevents every 48 from getting the clean look. That's really good defense from a player that has played what, seven NBA games at this point? Really solid. Now yeah, it's not a ton of super bright spots when it comes to the Pelicans. It's right now for me when I'm watching them is Herb Jones and Valet June is looking really good. Everything else is up in the air but shout out to Herb Jones. Let's move on to our next player. So the next player is on the Minnesota Timberwolves and you see the names, Carthony Towns, Anthony Edwards, D'Angelo Russell, you might think elite offense, terrible, terrible defense. We're so far in the season, the defense has been top 10 and the offense has been bottom, bottom seven, bottom seven. And a lot of the reason why the defense is top 10 is because they have a guy named Josh Akogi who we like but I'm not focusing on him but it really is Jaden McDaniels, another lengthy thin wire frame dude just like Herb Jones that is known for his defensive impact and so far this season, somebody told me this on Twitter so I'm happy I asked this question. Let me give you your credit my boy. So I have not fact checked this stuff by the way, it's on Twitter so it must be true. Am I correct? Okay, it actually comes from Ant All-Star 2020. My boy is starting a campaign to get Anthony Edwards in the All-Star game but he's also starting a campaign to get Jalen Noel Moore PT. So he mentioned that he kept Christian Wood and Chris Middleton and Keel Alexander Walker to very bad games which is a variety of player. Keel Alexander Walker is like a smaller, thin guard. Chris Middleton is one of the best ISO players in the league and Christian Wood is literally a power forward center. He was able to guard all three of those players and make them have tough nights. He's top 10 in defensive reigning and at one point he was keeping players below 30% field goal percentage in the league and that's second behind Bam Adebayo. NBA, please let this go. Is this account just named NBA defense? Oh, did they just get a new subscriber? So now this is McDaniel's guarding, Aaron Gordon, defense him well, then calls a miss from Michael Porter Jr. This is him guarding another lanky player and that is Brandon Ingram, getting all up in the sauce, nothing's going on. On the baseline, hand in the cookie jar, he's all over the place, nothing easy. Christian Wood, where are you going? This guy, he blows up plays like no other. You know what I'm saying? He has very good instincts, very quick feet for a guy that's listed as like a power forward type dude and you can see even here he's guarding, he has so much versatility. Now Jaylen Green is a rookie, but that is a guard and now he's guarding a small forward here. Now he gets a steal on a center. There's a lot of versatility here. Here's a Chris Middleton highlight. Chris Middleton thought he got the step. No, you did not. I would love for the NBA to just allow me to watch more NBA footage but they definitely copy strike a lot of these videos when I do things like this. So shout out to Jada McDaniels. And lastly, now again, some of these players are going to talk about more than others but it's Matisse Stiball.  So it's not the surprise to mention him as one of the greater defenders in the league. But again, just the fact that he is all over the place and passing lanes, his anticipation is probably the highest in the league by far where it looks like he's seeing plays three steps ahead. I remember back in the day, NCAA football days have like this quick time effect where I used to play like safety or corner and you can slow down the time when the quarterback throws the ball to get an interception. Matisse Stiball has that in real life. He's a real life superhero with the way he slows down time to get steals and stuff. So shout out to Matisse. Here's a quick rapid fire one. It is Al Horford. It's something about him putting on that green that elevates him. He's having one of his best years in a very long time.  And again, I didn't watch tonight's game but I did see them as a whole win against the Miami Heat. I got to go about watch that footage but he did sell me on today because I took the over on his rebounds at eight and he had seven. So I'm very disappointed but happy to see Al Horford starting off at least hot. Another player that is old that started off hot is Lamarcus Algers. He is third on the Brooklyn Nets as far as points per game at 12 points per and that's really solid man to think that this man was basically out of the league and retired just a couple months ago to get clear to come back and play basketball and to be playing at this rate is really good. Next player is Carmelo Anthony. I don't really have to talk about it. He's on America's most talked about team in LA Lakers but another player that was basically out of the league. You remember just two, three, was that three seasons ago? He got waved or released by the Houston Rockets and a lot of people thought that was over with for Carmelo Anthony and so far this year he's in conversation for six minutes of the year. Now he is behind like Tyler Harrow and a few other dudes but he has been super impactful. Even today I didn't get to watch the full game but I saw that he might have been their second third best player again tonight. So shout out to Carmelo Anthony. Another player is Desmond Bain. The Memphis Grizzlies made some moves this off season to allow Desmond Bain to flourish. I think majority of people that watched Collis basketball knew that Desmond Bain projected to be a good NBA player but a lot of people questioned what his ceiling was be because he was an older guy coming into it and his wingspan was minimum. The big guy minimum wingspan which means in two K terms he can shoot the heck out of the ball. Last year he shot 41% from three. This year he's shooting 40% from three on higher volume. So I don't know what the ceiling of Desmond Bain is but it's crazy that he fell all the way down to the 30th considering everybody knew he was gonna be good. At the end of the day there are people that were got drafted before him that will never be even close to the rookie version of him. A lot of teams out there drafted for potential instead of like a player that they know can hoop and Desmond Bain can real life hoop. Just a few more before we get out of here. This one is from Frederick. He said Seth, he will forever be in his brother's shadow stone frowny face which for the most part is true. When your brother is one of the greatest players of all time slash the greatest shooter of all time. Yeah, you might be in the shadows just a little bit but he has carved his way to be way more than Stephen Curry's brother. Because this year, I mean he's always been for the last couple of seasons the most efficient three point shooter in the history but his volume is going even higher. I was listening to No Dunks and I think there's a day or two ago and somebody said he is a lesser version of CJ McCullum because he's way more than just a three point shooter but now his mid range game and it's off the dribble game is better than it was like two, three years ago which is true. I never really thought about it in that perspective but for sure, his ability to create his own shot is 10 times better than what it was just a few years ago and right now I think he's third on the team as far as points per game and he's been one of the main reasons why they've been able to still have a really good offense because you cannot leave him open and if you glue to him, he has the ability now to make a couple moves and get the open mid range. The Shanta Mary is a player that I think has been underrated for a very long time and this year he's putting it together even more than others. It's just the fact that he plays in San Antonio and they don't win many games but a lot of the games I've mentioned in yesterday that they play are super fun and they just blow it in the last couple of minutes and one of the reasons why they stay close in these games is the Shanta Mary. He said in his post game interview a few nights ago that like I don't really care about my individual stats because we're losing and that's the right mindset to have but his individual stats look really good. He learned a lot from DeMar DeRosa, you know what I'm saying? He played with DeMar for three seasons or so and he realized, oh, the mid range game should not be dead and DeJante will take that mid-range jump shot for show. He played a Rudy game DeMar DeRosa for a couple of years. He knows that mid-range jump shot can be lead through if you learn it and he has learned it. His vision is really good. He was one of the youngest, if not the youngest player to ever make a defensive defensive team and his defense may not be as up to par with that when he was here too or whatever it was but it's still a positive defensive impact for DeJante. And then lastly, MoBomba. MoBomba, listen, when MoBomba was in the draft he was my favorite prospect. And that lets you know that no team should ever hire me first at all but definitely don't hire me to evaluate talent because he was my favorite player in the draft because I was thinking he was the future of the NBA center. Protect the paint, shoot threes. Protect the paint, shoot threes. I don't need you to do nothing else. And then the first couple of years of his career he couldn't even really get a lot. Now he did spend time injured and stuff but he struggled to get playing time on a bad team. Now, yeah, he was being behind Vucovic who was an all-star, one of the few bright spots for the Minnesota, for the Orlando Magic for the last couple of years but he really struggled to even hit the rotation. And that was a little bit scary. There's one point where they were playing like Kim Burch over him. And Kim Burch is good before team that was already losing 50 games. Let's just throw out that young fellow, right? No, they wouldn't do it. He didn't earn his minutes and I kind of messed with that. Well, this year there's literally nobody there so he's gonna have to get some minutes. And he looks like a mode of the player that I really liked. He's been able to sit in that corner, hit his shots, protect the paint and he looks like a good NBA player. You know, I am learning more and more every single year that the center position is hard to adjust to, especially for a one and done player that was raw. He was pretty raw coming out of college. It took him what three years to become an OK NBA player. He's only 23 years old at this point. So who knows where he can be at 26? But it's just a good sign. Teens need to start to be way more patient with these younger centers or just don't draft them fifth overall if you're gonna have expectations in year number two. Just don't draft them that high. There are so many more players that deserve love but these are just the ones that I thought they were very interesting. Let me know in the comments, take some other players that you believe need to show more love. Like there are other players that we've talked to like Franz Wagner. We talked about him like three episodes ago. So you know, players that I already talked about is underrated or underappreciated. I don't wanna bring them up again but these are just a whole new set of dudes. You know what I'm saying? I'll see y'all tomorrow probably, if not the day after.


The fungus patritis sinaria uses extracellular vesicles, EVs, to deliver small RNAs, sRNAs, into plant cells, where they suppress host immune responses. These EVs are loaded with sRNAs and then taken up by the plant cell through clathrin-mediated endocytosis, CME. This process allows the fungus to manipulate the host's immune system and increase its ability to infect plants. This article was authored by Bao Yi He, Wang Wang, Guoxin Liu, and others.
