Oh, and how you doing? Welcome to Hibachi Talk. Go to the texts are here. I'm here with my good old buddy, Ricks Mauer. R-I-X-M-A-U-R-E-R, Ricks. It's not Rick. It is not. It's Ricks. I've had to deal with that. Your name has killed me for the past 30 years. Anyway, here with me. Me longer. You longer. I'm here with Mr. Mauer and we're going to talk about the high cost of health care and a great deal of time spent in the hospital. No, but a great deal of time in the industry. So grab yourself a libation and pull up a chair and join us for a little interesting conversation about health care.  Also, Ricks is also, you were my co-host a couple of weeks ago. A couple of weeks ago. My wife was here. Yeah, because Mr. Landing is not abandoning us, but he's always traveling. He's also got another show he does as a co-host. So we've got a spin-off. So he, Bodgy Talk has a spin-off now. It's kind of like Cheers and, you know, Frasier and everything spins off. So now he got him spinning off. So you're going to help fill in on the times that he can't be here and the times that I cannot be here. Looking forward to it. Could be a lot after all. So anyway, so how about high cost of health care?  That being said, however, I got a rant for a minute. Okay, it's all yours. I already got a rant for just one little minute. For all of yours. Let me give over to Gordon. Remember Roland and Martin's Laughman with the fickle finger of fate? I do. You do. So anyway, this is the fickle finger of fate. Notice I'm using this one. For the DCCA who decided a month ago, they're going to shut down Coinbase in Hawaii. Now Coinbase is a cryptocurrency trader exchange. One of many, I might add, one of many. And for some reason, which I'll go into later, maybe, they've decided that they cannot do cryptocurrency here in Hawaii unless they put in a local bank the equivalent in fiat money, which is dollars to all the currency that's out there in Hawaii in Bitcoin. That's going to be a lot of money. Do you think the banks have to keep that much money in the bank vaults? Well, my recollection is that no, they don't need to keep 100%. It's probably a tenth or so of that money. Yeah, a tenth to 12%, I think, is the numbers. But no, no. DCCA in the state of Hawaii and their infinite wisdom decide that they're going to not allow them to do business here. And so they sent everybody in Hawaii notice that we had to clear out our accounts. Now, what do you think I'm going to do when I clear out my account? Do you think there's only one Bitcoin place in the entire state? No, I don't. I think there's options for you on that. There's many. I bet there are. Now, granted, I didn't get that notice. Well, you don't have Bitcoin. Well, I might not have it in Hawaii. That is true. You might have it in other countries. Or in different states. Yes. Options. As opposed to the state of confusion. Yes. What could be the only third-world state in the country? Anyway, that was, I'm sorry, I had to deal with my little rant. No? That's fine. I think that's a good rant because one of the issues is, like I mentioned, and you did too, you can put that money not in Hawaii. Yep. Or you can put that asset not in Hawaii. But you can put that asset in another state in the United States. Or as you also mentioned, you can put that in another country. In another country? In another denomination? Yes. And that's not really good for the state of Hawaii. It's not. Again, it shows from a technological standpoint how backwards we are. Yes. And we're supposed to be forward-thinking and we're not. It shows, again, it just re-emphasizes how backward we are and how anti-business we are. Yes. And the fact that the state of Hawaii is now only being able to capture the general excise tax that comes from, say, Amazon. Now Amazon? Yes. And other large internet companies. Exactly. And the thing that I think is going to happen about this is the fact that, you know, with the legalization of medical marijuana. Yes. And they can't put their money in a federal bank. There you go. It's all cash. No credit cards. Yes. What do they do with that cash? They buy cryptocurrencies. And there's no way the state of Hawaii can tax cryptocurrencies. So what do you do? You try to close it down. Yeah. And you're not going to close it down. It's just going to go somewhere else. It's going to go somewhere else. And it's going to hurt our tax government. It could. It could. But a lot of us are in Bitcoin because, you know, there's tax benefits. Yeah. There's tax advantages. Anyway. Sorry. I rented for longer than I should.  You might have been a little longer. So give me a background.  Okay. Yeah. I went to the University of California. And in Berkeley. At Berkeley. Yeah. It's UC Berkeley. Yeah. I'll close it now. I did graduate. I'm not going to tell you when I graduated. Because back then they didn't give out degrees. No, they did. That's part of the coming. What I will tell you is that while I was attending UC Berkeley, there were Vietnam War riots that were going on. A lot of protesting. Who was the governor? Well, the governor who signed my diploma was President Ronald Reagan. But he was, at that point in time, not the president. He was the governor of the state of California. They used to call him Ronald Ray Guns. Yes. I don't know why they did that. That's why they called him Ronald Ray Guns. Wow. So you made so... Ron and Nancy. Yeah. Ron and Nancy. I know. What an incredible couple. So that may date me. But then you've been in the healthcare industry for the same millennium for decades. You've been in this business for a long time. Decades. It was, yes, a different millennium I started. So that's true. So what capacity and where? I started out really as a Medicare auditor in the healthcare industry, primarily for hospitals. I kind of jumped the fence after that point after my auditing and joined as a controller, a hospital in the San Francisco Bay Area. Okay. From there, and now I will kind of date in 83, my family and I moved here to take the position as a vice president and controller of the Queens Medical Center. So you were vice president and controller of the Queens Medical Center.  You asked me to help you move. I will never forgive you. That's yes. Rebella Movers. We had Rebella Movers, yeah.  It was like 14 hours of moving. That was yes. You bought us pizzas. I did. My wife did. And beer. She did.  And it just so happened, I was there at the time when you came on board. Yes. That's when we first met. That's how I conned you into moving our two houses. I paid you back one night. We'll talk about that a little bit later. So you go to Queens Medical Center. And wasn't that a state of the art facility when you came in? It wasn't a state of the art facility at that point in time. But I'm going to say probably a year, maybe two years ago, they had gotten a chief financial officer who, you know, we knew each other. Yeah, a girl. After you came on board. Yeah. LJS, we're going to have him on the show one day. Oh, okay.  But Larry really wanted to move the organization forward. And I know that the administration, you know, was supporting Larry to move forward and that sort of thing. So I did came in and we put in, gosh, a number of new systems. We put in actually the first electronic finance system for Queens. On a mainframe. Yes, with you guys, you know, with the IT folks. We put in a new billing system, a new charge capture system on that. There was a lot of things. Lots of things that went on. So we're talking about the cost of healthcare, right? So, I mean, this is not necessarily the cost of getting you the service. This is the cost of just running the business. Yes. The back office of running the business, if you will. And there are costs. Yes. Lots. We put the first email in the state of Hawaii in Queens Medical Center. Yes. So that was great. Another on the mainframe. Yeah. But we, you know, when we first came in, I'm going to say it was probably a year, probably in 81, 82, somewhere in that time that the first personal computers were coming. Right. And, but again, Queens, IT put in for the finance and for registration. Yeah. The first 13, 13 inch green screens. 13 inch green screens in the 13 month year. Remember, that was Larry Smith. Yes. I hated him for that. I just thought of it now. That's right. 12 months in a year. Yeah. Four-week periods. 13 of them in a year. Larry created that, which will give me a... I loved it. God love them, man. 13 months. No, I had to modify the system like crazy for it. But speaking of that, because it gives me a segue into another thing, it's got, you know, got one tech job thing. So, you know, Larry introduced a 13 month year. Yes. Well, DAGs has decided we've got a new day, how long the day will be. And Zuri's going to pop the slide out. I took a photo of it. It's up on there. So now, according to DAGs, your work day, your whole day is during 4.30 p.m. and 6 a.m., or hours by order of DAGs. So that's it. There's no 12 a.m. to 12 p.m. This is it. Now, I don't know how we're going to adjust our days, but that's it. Well, that's on a wall up the street. There's nothing else with it. It's just there. I asked a guy that was having a cigarette, you know, with his sitting and counting her steak bag. I said, what does that mean? He goes, I don't know. It begins at 4.30 in the afternoon. When do I have breakfast? When do I have breakfast? Give your union a shock. Anyway, so that one, that's, so coming back to the 13 month year and of how many hours is that in a day now? And you get nap time. Oh, that was someone else.   Why is it, it's not just the procedures. It's all of the things that go on in the background. Yeah. And I think it's things that go on in the background. But the other thing that can make health care expensive is that you and I are very different. And so as physicians... You're cheap, I'm not. I'll just leave it at that. I'm old, you're not. But if you have to have your knee done versus my knee done, that may be entirely different. Just because you played football, you played hockey. Yeah. Me? You went to Berkeley. You sat on the grass a lot. You sat on the grass. He's always said, sat.  My level of pain as a 10 is probably maybe a four or five for you. There's nobody who sells up here. Right. So do you need a lot of pain medication when your knee is done? Me? Probably not. So there's a lot of differences that, you know, will happen that make how care is delivered to you and how it's delivered to me may be entirely different. The important thing here is very appropriate for me and very appropriate for how it comes to you. So that makes, it's not as though that, you know, we are built on a... We're all not forts. No. We're all not, whatever, Toyotas. Yeah. With that, I've got to take a Toyota break. I'm not even promoting them, whatever, unless they donate something to this organization. Gordo... What do I call you, the money? The money bags. Money bags, Maher. Money bags, Maher. We'll be back after a break. Aloha. This is Kaili Akina with the weekly Ehana Kakao. Let's work together, program on the Think Takawaii Broadcast Network Mondays at 2 o'clock p.m. Movers and shakers and great ideas. Join us. We'll see you then. Aloha. Hi. I'm Nicole Alexandre-Inos and I was born three weeks ago. Congratulations on being there for me for some of the few weeks of my life. I'm starting a new show, The Millennial Mind, every Wednesday at 2 p.m. for the month of April, where we'll go over some of the reasons why millennials are some of the most anxious and frustrated people at the moment. Ah! Hi, I'm Stephen Phillip Katz. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist in Hawaii, and I do a show called Shrink Wrap Hawaii, where shrinks and sometimes other people come on and talk about the art and science of psychology, talking to people, relationships. So if you are curious about shrinks and want to be shrunk and don't know where to go, tune in to Shrink Wrap Hawaii. All right? All right. Aloha. I'm Dave Stevens, the host of the Cyber Underground on Think Tech Hawaii, and this is my co-host, Andrew Lanning, the security guy. Every week at 5 p.m. we'll be discussing cybersecurity, the things to look out for, and the things to do to keep yourself safe. Check us out on Think Tech Hawaii at 5 o'clock Friday. Thank you. Welcome back, folks. We appreciate you coming back to us, and right now we have a brief message from Angus. Yes, so welcome back. Hey there, Rick. Hey, how are you doing today?  We fought you in 1347. It was 438. It's 38 whatever it is. I still remember what your mother did. Anyway, you know, it's a health care theme show, and I try to keep it thematic. So guess what I got? I got a great piece of technology that the hospitals can now use, and I got to show a picture. How about underwear-shaped bandages? So how neat is that? Underpants bandages.  It's a great, great piece of medicine, and cheap, too. Anyway, that's all I have for my short brief message. And with that, like I say everybody, every week, let your wing gang breathe, where are you be? Aloha! We beat you in 1835. Well, thanks very much for that brief message. We really appreciate that one, Angus. So I'll turn it back to our own score. I know. We don't know where we're going to go next. There goes the alelo again.  I'll give you an example. So, you know, I go, I have a surgery, and the doctor prescribes oxy, how do you call it? Not oxyclean, but oxycodon. It prescribes like 20 tablets. And I go to the pharmacy, and they give me a look like you wouldn't believe. Actually, I had to go to three pharmacies because no one would fill 20. Finally went to one, and they filled it, and I used one. But I had to pay for, or the insurance company had to pay for 20. Yeah. And what do I do with those other 19? And I'm not, I know, I saw that look. No. I ain't. Bitcoin, does that come into play here? Bitcoin, yeah, right. To me, that's kind of like, that's waste. Yeah. Yeah, I think that is. But again, that's where we really need to go. And probably one of the next things, well, I know that insurance companies, and certainly hospitals as well, they're really looking at how do we put together what is the best, how do we get to the best outcome? Of the, of the, Taking care of the patient. Right. Exactly. And what makes that so difficult, I think, is how different the different patients are. And so what may be an excellent outcome for you and an excellent outcome for me could be very different. Because part of it is what we talked about a little bit earlier. You may not need 20 oxycontin. Right. So if you only need four. Then why not four? Yeah, then you get four. Saved money there. For me, I may have a higher, you know, or a lower threshold for pain. And I might need those 20. Right. So it's going to cost me a little bit more. It's going to cost you a little bit less. But right now, you get prescribed the same amount as I do. So those are the kinds of things that we have to, to look at and say what can get an excellent outcome for me and what can get an excellent outcome for you and how do we, how do we go back and then look at and know that so that you get the right input. Right. And to get an excellent outcome, I get a different input to get my excellent outcome because we're different. We're different. And so, and what we're talking here then is like, is we're talking about gathering data. Data. And accumulating all of this information that would then give us knowledge. Yeah. On what we should be doing. Right. But I, And that's the, What's the term? Gargantuan data. Yeah. I like it. Gargantuan data. Yeah. Big data. Yeah. But now we're talking gargantuan data. Yeah. And how do we get the data and then how do we analyze it so that our physicians and other healthcare workers know you need less, I need more. Yeah. And to the extent that you can get a much better, you know, you can, you can still get an excellent outcome but put in fewer dollars. Well, Especially if they know your history. Right. Exactly. And to my knowledge, not many doctors, clinicians, proceduralists, I'll call them like x-ray, whatever, hospitals, insurance companies, share that data. Yeah. Right. Everybody's got it in their silo. Yeah. And so now how do I get, how do I, No, I'm getting affordable care. How do I know I'm getting the best care if they don't share the data? Exactly. HIPAA compliant data. HIPAA compliant. Encrypted data. Yeah. And how do you pull it together, because it is big data. Yeah.  Right.  So you're saying this work own, which makes me kind of... The doctors too. Own it. Own it. Do they own the data or do we really own it? Do I own the data? That becomes, now I'm focusing on this, like, why does the doctor, the group, the hospital, the healthcare providers think they own... Isn't that my data? Well, I think it's both. Okay. Both the provider and the patient's data. Okay. Who has, what would I say, control of that data. That's not really a good word, but who... But they... They manage it. Yeah, they manage it. It's within their purview of the data right now. It's outpatient clinics, physicians, other outpatient healthcare providers, the inpatient providers, hospitals, and the payers, primarily the insurers of that. So how do we pull all of that together? How do we pull that together? And who... What is... Who is the organization? What is the organization that can get all of that? You know what? The state of Hawaii, they're taking on Bitcoin. Why don't they take off all of that too? Well, I'll let you... In a spare time. I can't give up on that. You have a role. You've gone on a bit of a role today. But you're right. It's all of this data. Now, here's something interesting. You're talking about all the stuff that's going on in the background kind of thing, but then you still got the doctors, the surgeons, the nurses, the clinicians. And so, I'm going to throw a real hard question at you. This is going to be a tough one. What do you think percentage of the direct medical administrative staff versus the back staff? What's the cost? 50-50? For the back of the house? 20-80? I mean, I don't know. Yeah. I would say, and this is off the top of my head, I would say the front of the house where the care is delivered, you know, hands-on care. Gosh, that's got to be... I've got to say off the top of my head, I'd say 20, or I'm sorry, that would be 80%. 80%. That's hands-on care. There's... Yeah. Yeah, based on my experience in the healthcare business, and I have been there a long time and I had got clients that are healthcare, I think you're about right that 80% of the direct care is there. Yeah. And then you've got important things like nurses. Yes. I mean, they are not inexpensive, but I think they're one of the most valuable part of the whole care delivery system. They are.  Yeah. Yeah, that's true. And they know that, they know the patient. Absolutely. And they can be alerted if something, if they see certain things happening, whether it be from the pharmacy from the intending physician or whatever. So they're kind of a key piece, but they're not inexpensive. They are not. And that's all, I'm okay with that because they are such a key. I mean, they are, for an inpatient, they are, I would suggest, kind of a first responder. Okay. You know, because after, if I'm coming in for surgery, yeah, I want to have the best surgeon for me possible. Right. But then, after I'm out of surgery, he, the physician, he or she is going to hand me off to the, well, to the recovery room. Right. Nurses. Pre-imposed up. Yes, pre-imposed up all the time there. And then onto a floor to do my recovery.  How am I doing? How, not what I'm saying as much as how do I really look? How, what are my, what are my vital signs doing? Yeah. What are your fluid intakes, your fluid outtakes? All of those kinds of things. Yeah. And they'll see if I'm having a post-op problem or not. Okay. So, then again, we both agree that nurses are a key player. But one of the challenges that I've always had is like, is the travel nurses. They're from out of state. When there's graduate, I'd realize that travel nurses are experienced. There's no argument there. But you've got new nurses that are graduating from University of Hawaii who can't get a job. So, You'd say, yeah, you've hit on a key point, key point there. You want me to No, because, you know, I guess we're going to have to do this again because you're not going to believe this, but we've used up all the show. The and you're not getting paid to buy. But, you know, I couldn't use this but I had the phone. I had it, two days ago. And, I say, oh, the first thing I'd say is, the first thing I'd say is, the first thing I'd say, no, you can't use it. I can't. No. It's not He's going to be helping me co-host the show and Andrew co-host the show. And we'll continue these themes on health care. So thanks, Ray. Everybody for helping this show happen. Tonight is Boys Bunch, April Foolish Party down at Gordon Beers. If you see me there, I've still got a few tickets. I'll get you in for free, free 99. And then we've got the cyber show starting at five o'clock. I guess I'm the guest on that one. They can't find anybody. Anyway, oh, thank you for joining us. I'm Hibachi Daka. And like we say at the end of every show, one, two, three, How you doing?


I have a love and hate relationship with my cell phone and my tablet, they do their jobs too well. I'm too connected to the point that I have a hard time disconnecting when I need to do creative work. Temptation to check my email, slack off at a workout through a YouTube video and the need to be up to date with the world at the cost of not living my own world has taken a toll on my self-control. That is, of course, until I got the Galaxy Watch 5. I warn you that this will not be your typical smartwatch review. Hi, I'm Raffael from Hardware Sugar and here is my review of Samsung's latest wearable and how it has made me not only more productive but also a lot happier through its work at being the gatekeeper of my temptations. Check out CDKEOVERS.com. What I have is the 44mm regular Watch 5 Wi-Fi model. This is my first smartwatch in 7 years and if I'm being wowed by some features which have been around for a while then you should probably watch something else because I'm going to geek out on everything that absolutely wows me even if they aren't new. If you've never owned a smartwatch before or have a very old one and own an android phone especially a Samsung model then this review is for you. I have used the watch every day for 35 days now ever since it arrived on August 23. This also included an impromptu 10 day trip to Singapore where I truly got to test out most of its features. I paid for this with my own cash and so Samsung could care less what I say and how I say it. I'm going to skip the usual stuff people talk about when it comes to this watch for now and just get right into the things I love about right off the bat. I completely detached from my S21 Ultra at least once a day. It says it's good for you to take walks without distraction. The most creative thoughts come to us during exercise and when we are alone with ourselves. However, I also like tracking my workouts and listening to music while I do them. With the watch 5, I can download entire playlists I have saved onto the watch itself making it a portable mp3 player. For this to work however you have to have wireless earphones and to be a subscriber to the premium version of Spotify. The fact that all I carry out the door when I walk my dog or go for a run is just my watch and the two earbuds hanging from my ear is very liberating. If you're on Strava, the running app, the watch 5 does a good job at tracking your progress there as well as while you listen to your playlist. Even when I'm at my home gym, I originally had my phone or iPad nearby playing my soundtrack or a dead talk but I soon found out that in between sets I ended up playing with them and before I knew it, I've become those guys everyone hates at the gym. The watch 5 gives me freedom by allowing me to have as few or as much connection as I want with my mobile which brings me into the next thing which I really like which is the do not disturb function. Whether it is Pomodoro, the time management method in which you allocate a specified number of minutes to a single task without interruption or some other productivity guide, the term deep work comes up often. Deep work just means the ability to focus without distraction on a mentally demanding task whether that is studying, accounting, writing and so forth. The watch 5 has a handy do not disturb option from the drop down menu which ultimately kills all unnecessary notifications from reaching your phone so that you can remain connected with the things which do matter. You can customize on your phone by the way which things should always be let through such as specific emergency numbers such as your partner or your parents. The notifications still come as a red dot on the left side of the screen which you can refer to at will. However it at least doesn't vibrate or chime each time you receive a message from a chat group you only occasionally care to be part of. The watch 5 has a plethora of watch faces with programmable data points which Samsung calls complications. A complication can be any available data point or app which is supported by that specific watch face. The most common ones are the step counter, your next alarm, a timer, the battery and of course the date and weather. I'll get into how awesome the watch faces look into a moment but even if I love the watch 5 for allowing me to detach from my cell phone it still keeps me on track as I go about my day. Two very simple examples is when I set an alarm for an upcoming meeting. In addition to telling me what time my alarm is it will also tell me how long until the alarm goes off. This is minor but I feel more in control and aware of how much time is left when I'm actually told how much time is left. As opposed to the traditional way of merely gauging how much time we have left. Secondly I do a lot of cooking and spontaneous planking and so the timer as a complication is very handy. I try to do a two minute plank every other hour. Again since I keep my phone away during work periods there is no way for me to get distracted with a message or Instagram when all I need for the moment is the timer. The timer also comes in handy of course for basic things such as cooking pasta and baking a roast. Again I find it really liberating that I don't need to lug my phone with me around the house when I'm doing chores during my off times. There is of course the health aspect of the watch 5. If you're holding up the watch to your face as you walk you will see the watch counting the steps in real time. There are also multiple YouTubers who have done much more rigorous testing when it comes to the health monitoring aspects of the watch. I'll link them down but safe to say that when it comes to steps I think it is at least 95% accurate. It also genuinely encourages me to meet my targeted goals every day. In fact there was one night in Singapore in which I lacked a couple of hundred steps and I literally ran up and down the steps of my hotel in my pajamas just so I could get that satisfying congratulations message. Even when I fail to reach my health targets for the day I feel both guilty and genuinely challenged to make up for it the day after. I will say however that the sleep monitor isn't perfect. I'm always pleasantly surprised that it can detect when I fell asleep but it fails to register accurately when I actually wake up. Occasionally I wake up and check my phone for half an hour but don't get out of the bed. I noticed that the watch thought I was still asleep during the times I was actually scrolling with my phone. I had to actually get up and walk around for it to officially record that I was no longer asleep. Now let's talk about the more basic stuff. The screen is gorgeous. The always on display is clear even in direct sunlight and the colors are vibrant and wonderful. Samsung kills it with their mastery over displays. The colors are really rich and sometimes I can't help but just wake it up just so I could see all the attractive and fun watch faces available. The most optimized watch faces will always be the one Samsung provides. However, I highly recommend the app Facer if you want an almost unlimited supply of watch faces. I'll link Seekid TV's channel above because he has the most in-depth discussion on Facer. Galaxy Watch 4 bands are compatible with the Watch 5. I just want to say that right off the bat. The installation of the band is disappointing, however. It takes some degree of effort and technique to master removing and adding new bands on. I think Samsung can most definitely work on making this easier. If you don't have a single long fingernail, you are practically screwed. Of course, that isn't to say that the band is loose or in danger of falling off. It isn't. It's just that part of the fun of owning a smart watch, ever since the Apple Watch debuted is the option to not only change your watch face, but also your band, depending on the occasion or mood you are feeling. The standard band, which comes with the Galaxy Watch 5, does its job well. And I can have it as tight and as loose as I want. However, they pick up this gorgeous green orange silicone watch band that which has a magnetic clasp. I'll leave the shopping link in the video description. This band, in fact, is marketed as a Watch 4 band. But as you can see, it latches on to my watch 5 with no problem. The watch 5 battery has never been an issue for me. Yes, expect to charge it at least once a day. But because of how quickly the watch 5 charges, I never really saw this as an issue to begin with. If, for instance, I'm running 20% before bedtime, I leave it charging on the cradle when I shower or when I'm having dinner. One hour later and it's fully charged up. A lot of people fear that just because your watch can't carry a charge which will last longer than a day means that it isn't worth the investment. For me, at least, I feel more productive and healthier because of the watch 5. And so I don't really care if I need to charge it at least once a day. And leaving it charging alongside my phone at times is second nature to me. This might not be okay with everyone, but it suits me quite fine. One cool trick for those of you at the office is that if you have a phone like the S21 or S22 which supports wireless charging, you can convert your phone to a wireless charging cradle if you desperately need to charge your watch 5 up. There are, of course, things I don't like about the watch 5. Firstly, it's the fact that it can receive super fast charging. However, the 25W Samsung adapter which allows this isn't included in the box. You need to buy the super fast charging adapter separately and it isn't cheap. They are, however, worth every penny. Luckily for me at least, I got a free one with my S21 Ultra upon pre-order last year and Samsung had a discount promo during the release of the watch 5 which I used to get two more. Next is the problem with fur. I have a dog who sleeps on the same bed as me and a single strand of fur seems to have lodged itself between the screen and the watch face. So, a warning to you pet lovers out there. More irritatingly, however, is how Samsung isn't clear on what features can work in which country. I'm from the Philippines and I have had hypertension for 20 years now. The blood pressure monitor would thus be really handy if only it was available here to begin with. This is disappointing and the Samsung website, both the Philippine and international version, isn't clear which feature is available for which country. Lastly, it takes a really long time for GPS to begin when using Strava. It is unclear to me if this is an optimization problem for the Strava app itself or if it's the built-in hardware and software of Samsung. Nevertheless, there are a number of videos stressing the occasional unreliability of the GPS of the watch 5. In my testing, however, the pathing system seems to be correct. It just takes a really long minute or two for things to get going. In conclusion, the watch 5 is my effective bouncer who keeps me from consuming unnecessary content on my phone for when it's time to work and acts as an effective health tracker and productivity reminder tool for my everyday use. Truthfully, though, based on a lot of other reviews, the watch 4 is almost identical to the watch 5 in every sense, except for the fact the watch 5 has slightly better battery life and has super fast charging. While I can't tell you which would be the better purchase since I've never owned the watch 4, I can tell you that the watch 5 is the most important tech investment I have made this year and I am immensely a more happier worker and healthier person, both mentally and physically because of it. Thanks for watching and maybe one of these days, we'll see you in the shop.


Mr Speaker, I note in this motion the Minister for Finance made it a point to mention that this was a guarantee by the government and he made sure that he made it very clear that the government would not be responsible for paying the debt unless, of course, there's a default. My concern here, Mr Speaker, is that the fact that the National Lottery's authority and by their mandate is supposed to assist in many disciplines across the country that their contributions to various activities on a yearly basis, how will that be affected? Will we see various reductions as it relates to some of the sponsorships that they provide? So it's just a concern and I'm hoping that we will not see any sort of lesser interest in various areas that have been sponsored by the National Lottery's already. I know there was some after-school program that was being sponsored by the National Lottery's that had been stopped very early, maybe about two years ago. And I was very happy to hear the Minister of Finance also speak today and I must congratulate the organizers and also the First National Bank for the sponsorship on Sunday. Very, very wonderful turnout. Very exciting to see the performance of our young people and to use one of the Minister of Finance, the member for Cassidy's, his favorite terms, you know, I recall the number of times when the work was being done on the Sufra Stadium, the number of times they denigrate, is that the word you love to use, you know, the denigrate, the work being done. But I'm very happy, at least, that there was a place for our young people to have been able to come and, you know, perform very well. There were other statements that were made that, you know, I would not choose to comment on the whole issue of the Sufra Stadium. The member spoke of specifically, well, he mentioned at least four grounds. He spoke of the Darren Summy in preparation for Cricket World Cup. He spoke for the Rosalie Plainfield, Mindou-Philippe Park and Marsha Grounds. I'm suspecting and believing that you would have, you most likely would have missed out some other areas because I find it very hard that 80 million dollars would go into just these four areas. And I can think of a few to assist in putting on that program as well, because the last time I was here, I spoke to the issue of the Schuosell lighting. And the lights cost him just about $250,000 and as a result of number of times the organizers tried to get the lights repaired, we had quite a bit of difficulty where it was citing financial difficulties and that of course has stopped a wonderful cricket program that the organizers have done there. Schuosell Smash, which has continued to to pull very large crowds and they support for the vendors and everything like that. Mr Speaker, so I'm hoping that, you know, there will be some emphasis placed to repair the lights. The member for Denry Knopf, who continuously went through side-marked whenever I'm speaking, I'm sure he would have, Mr Speaker, through you, he would have played on the PI Plainfield as a former national cricketer. And the PI Plainfield, Mr Speaker, one of the best places where, apart from the Darren semi-grounds, where young cricketers go and play, I'm hoping that some attention will be made, will be given to that particular cricket ground in Schuosell. The Honorable Prime Minister also spoke to the fact that all the work that was done on the Sufra Stadium, obviously it left a sort of a void for the cricketers. And, Mr Speaker, we know very well that a lot of work had been done in acquiring another piece of land in Sufra. Some work had been started and I'm hoping maybe the member for Sufra, François Jacques, could tell us of the continuation of that program to give a home to the cricketers from the Sufra community. But, Mr. Speaker, of greater concern in all of that kind of money that's been spent on our spotting facilities, and I think I heard the member for Cassary South speak to it some time ago, that we need to find a place to have our cultural activities and our fets and everything like that, Mr. Speaker. And I'm hoping that that kind of money that will be spent on the facilities will not continue to see, you know, the destruction of the facilities with some of the big parties and the fets that we continue to engage in on these plain surfaces. I remember when we were forming the government or we were the last administration, we had actually identified a place somewhere in the area of, I think, the Caribbean cinemas where we were looking to bring in the whole cultural center and sufficient parking and everything. But there was a lot of cry from the public that we were moving away from town and, you know, and people are opposed. But now you see when you listen and you reflect, you realize that a lot of people are making noise for political reasons. And so I'm hoping that, you know, the thrust that the Ministry of Tourism wants to give to identifying a new home, you know, we will see that happening very soon so that, you know, the damage of our plain surfaces would be a thing of the past. So, Mr. Speaker, I, you know, I do agree that we do need to do some maintenance and some work on our various fields. I'm hoping that the four fields mentioned are not the limitation of where that money will be spent. But there will be a wider program across St. Lucia to take care of the various plain fields. That being said, Mr. Speaker, I thank you.


The live performance experience with Harpers Chord is sort of that culmination of bringing out to the audience everything that we've been working on behind the scenes and to try to then get before a live audience and perform for them the fruits of our labor if you will to see how that comes off. That's always very rewarding for me. I've just been doing that for over 40 years and I just never get tired of it. As everyone knows with live music you just never know exactly what you're going to get with each performance and that's always a real treat.

Belfry Volunteer Fire Department takes this time to invite you and your family to the 41st annual Thunder in the Valley Saturday, July 2nd. Fireworks start at 10.05pm. This event will be held at Belfry High School. Come enjoy Thunder in the Valley. Also, Belfry Fire Department takes a moment to take all the sponsors that help make this event possible. Heinemann Settlement School will be hosting their first Disco Square Dance Wednesday, June 29th. The Square Dance is free to the public and beginner friendly. Well, our Disco Square Dance, I think, is a great example of blending of new and old traditions. New technology blended with the old tradition of square dancing. And it'll be like a traditional square dance, swing your partner, do-si-do, those kind of moves with a collar teaching everybody the same moves, but with the key difference being that we're dancing to electronic music and disco music with a disco ball and party lights and all kind of fun things. The dance is family friendly and will have limited flashing lines to accommodate to those with sensory issues. Well, I had seen disco and rave square dances take place in other communities like in Lexington and Louisville, and I've been to a couple of them and they're always so much fun and I wanted to bring it to Heinemann. You know, one of Heinemann's missions is celebrating our heritage as well as fostering our community here in the here and now. And so we wanted to, you know, uplift and share our tradition and our culture of square dancing, but through a modern lens and incorporate music that people would recognize and just bring a party to Heinemann. The Heinemann Settlement School will hold two additional square dances this summer on July 27th and August 31st. I like to describe square dancing as just really a big group game and there are moments where you can waltz and do a couple dance, but most of square dancing is dancing with the whole room, right? You get to dance with everybody. And that's one of the beautiful things about square dancing because you get to meet a lot of people on the dance floor and just make and make friends. It's very family friendly and very inclusive. Doors will open at 6.30 and dancing will begin at 7. For more information on the Disco Square Dance, visit Heinemann Settlement School on Facebook.

But if she's paralyzed, she can't really fight back. So you can't really brag about that. All right, I'll stop. Man, how are you, mate? Yeah, good. Before we are. Thanks, man. Are we live? Yeah.  I don't believe you. You go. She's a mullet. Oh, did you get to be excited? Oh, I thought we had a fire. Look, guys. We bought a we bought a megaphone. Are we really live now? Yeah, 100 percent. Fuck, just on Fox solo. Episode number twenty one of the mighty mark, fully actual podcast. Oh, man.   Can't yeah, really.  Now, this is essential. This is work. People can still go to work. Yeah, as long as we're social distancing, we're fine. I'm way away from you guys. And we're wearing our masks. And by the time this comes out, hopefully the lockdown will be over and no one can get a noise. What did we do last week?  Did we have fun? Oh, we had a good weekend.  We had some giggles galore. We go ice skating. Is that a thing?   And then I like 10 p.m. So the editor of this podcast, Connor, doesn't live too far away from our mate, James at all, right? Very close, in fact.  And then we Michael says, let's go to Connors and just we'll all wear hoodies, dark hoodies at like 10 30 p.m.  It gets and it goes some quiet and it gets louder and louder. And so we did that. We went to Connors house and we made a semicircle. We started chanting. And then like we could see his roommates through the window that freaking out a little bit.   Yeah, we didn't even close the joke. We didn't talk to him. I was like, yeah, yeah, I messaged him the next day. OK, but yeah, it was like, you know, there was no, oh, hey. Yeah, funny joke. Oh, hey, Ben. There's nothing like that. It was just chant and leave. It's good when you commit to the joke. And what did he say? He just said it was it was said it was amazing. And he said that his roommates were genuinely a bit scared. Well, there you go. Good. Well, he did have a knife in case he got hairy. Yeah, well, you don't know these days, especially with covid 110 percent, man. It's deadly out there. Michael, can you come a bit closer to your microphone?   Good times. We all hung out, got high, watched some silly videos, played some FIFA. Matthew. Oh, you lost. Me and Matthew had a battle. Was it last week? Yeah, last week after first one was after podcast. After the podcast, you quit halfway through when you were stuck. We played at best of three. I won the first two one. I couldn't believe it. Then he won the next two. OK. He's better. I admit it. He's been playing for longer. I've only been playing for a month and a half. But you're going to keep challenging me, right? Yeah. OK.  We'll film on this video for the website. I called is beauty pain.  We had all these appointments lined up throughout the whole week. We get like the first couple done. You might notice that we're a really beautiful, glowing tanned.  So you guys have got Botox at the moment. Oh, yeah, it takes like three days to kick in. Yeah, so it's not like. Oh, yeah. I think I don't know was.         It either involves shit, piss, vomit, skin, everything. You name it. He mentions it.  I'm not that proud of it.  That should be all right now. While you're listening to this, that's all right now. All right.  But what I did, Matthew, because I'm smart, is I bit edges around the chili. It exposed the seeds.   And then the tips. Then I tried to rip it out, snapped off.  Oh, oh, that's fucked. Yeah, man, it was quite fucked. And also during during the week, I you handled it quite well. Though I took Michael's arcade card, right? You know, there's a car's where you can accumulate points. What is 90,000 point one?   I get to use the company card. Oh, that's fair, because I've that's taken two years.  That's a lot. That's taken over two years to accumulate.  And then I was like, hey, kids, I had that megaphone, I had this megaphone.  And we just got in spray tan and I was wearing a white shirt. So I look fucked. So I give and the kids just go nuts.  And then I give out a Nintendo Switch or something I wanted. So how much was that? Because I thought they were expensive. It's the PlayStation. No, I forget.  All right. I'm glad that you enjoyed spending my yeah. And then and then I came home and you were all sort of alright with it. Well, not really. I was not happy at all. Oh, really?  I misread that. That's why it's fun. I'm happy with that.  You'd see it build up.  Michael, like saving things. And now you've ruined it. He likes saving gold. How many have I got left? How many tickets do you reckon? Man, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. Well, it does to me. I was doing a selfless deed. You would have been selfish and bought some for yourself. Well, they're my tickets. So of course I'd use it for myself. So I thought, you know what? These poor kids, right?  They're out here.  A lot of them were fat. A lot of them were fat. And I thought, man, these kids need a bit of a bright in their day come. I said that to them.    And they were ruthless. They weren't even polite about it. They were grow handfuls and there'd be kids with armfuls or lollies trying to go back for more. And I let it happen. There were smaller children on the fringe, got nothing.  I don't care. I did a good thing. You are selfish.  What are you going to do about it, man? You go out into the wild. It's the same thing. Can't what are you going to tell the smaller lion or here, bro, here's a sympathy stake. No, the small lion dies. And that is how this species survives. Well, the fat, strong kids will keep us humans thriving long after you've died from a brain tumor.   He's got his golly bottle. That's a lot of comments we saw from the golly. Oh, I've got to get it.  We also got to mention the manscaped before we get into the golly bottle in between talking about golly bottles. We're also don't disturb it yet. We're also sponsored by Manscaped. All right. Manscaped.com. We have a discount code fully actual 20.  OK, just go to their website manscaped.com.  OK, fully actual 20. It's a new discount code. All right.  Does that make sense to everyone? Yeah, I like that. Great. All right, Manscaped. Awesome. Thank you very much, Manscaped.  Here's the golly bottle. Don't disturb it.  Because you're going to open it and you're going to pump the air out and it's going to smell. Look, there are flies on top. Yeah, the flies have started going in. And I'm showing this to you guys. Yeah, slowly disturb it. Yeah, look at that. That's I don't know if you can't see on Spotify obviously, but very I don't know what color that is. I've never seen that color before. Like the bottom stuff, the sediment at the bottom. Man, it is. Oh, I made that. It looks like a lift. Soft drink. You should pour that. I can't even say it with that gagging, can't I?  OK? OK. You won't get it. I'll keep it for myself. Also, Matthew, I just realized, could you just open the washing machine up and hang the washing out, Matt? And then get started in the kitchen after, for fuck's sake. Thank you. Still hasn't done it. Sorry about the kitchen. Fuck, man. Yeah, well, yeah, well, Matt, I don't think it's his responsibility. But anyway, what are we talking about? The golly bottle.  I'm just going to keep it.  It's my relic. Yeah. Anyway, we've been we saw our first ever podcast over 1,000 comments, like two podcasts ago. No, it was last last last week.  Boys, keep it going. If you if you can't subscribe to the website, that's fine. OK, I wouldn't subscribe to us. All right. But what I would do if I even liked the podcast slightly, I would give it a like if you can do it right now. Like if you're watching this to continue, like it. Like it and just comment the word comment or something like that. OK, just something simple like that, just so we know that you guys love us. Because if we don't get that support, then we we we crumble. Yeah, we crumble into the dust can't. And we've done this one hundred and one podcast now.   We've got, yeah, tonal. There's still probably a bit of cum, but most of that one on my arm. And there's the German cards.  We've got P.O. on boxing. We've got the German cards.  And we've got some questions. If you want your question answer, I know sometimes, even though your your question is like the most liked, we might not. You might be like, oh, fuck, they didn't answer my question in the following podcast.  So just ask it again.   So the corner doesn't have to edit it out, Matthew. We have answered a few questions before. So we get a couple of the same. That's also true. Sometimes if I usually just answer them in the comment. Yeah. Yeah.   Can't we've also got this in case I have gas gas. I've been saving the gas and me guts. So hopefully here, I don't know, man. I was like fighting before to hold everything in. Can you jump or something? I'm not going to force it, but it will happen. OK, I can feel the rumbling that something is happening.   No, we're coming round to it. Oh, yeah, but we thought I think it takes guts. It does. It's scary. The things you've done. Yeah, look, I will admit it's a gutty move, Matt.   Yeah, I guess. Well, you haven't like, I guess you haven't like crossed the line physically yet, except for when you flicking karma. Yeah, that was. And there has been some Vinny, like, honestly, you've really broken some really sort of severe laws, but. It's a big law. But anyway, look, let's just let's just not comment. You're a changed man. I think I haven't seen you do this for a long time. It's all water under the bridge. OK, it's just hard to hear that you've done these. I'm not I'm all for it now. I'm coming around. I'm not all for it. You keep telling people things about me. Look, Matt, I'm just reading from the diary. OK, so please, please come on.  Diary entry number one hundred and twenty one from Michael Corey Brookhouse. Today, I took my pet maggots to the park. I have over three hundred and I'll let them play on dead animals. I find a family walk past and I heard the mother tell the kids to walk quickly past me. My maggots are my family.  Yeah, that pet maggots could be cool. And then you turn into flies. Have a little I can see you doing that instead of like an ant farm.   Can't take for a maggot to turn into a fly. Great question. Why don't you start a maggot farm? Bombs. Diary entry number 94 from Marty. Today, I had to wear the same school uniform for the twelfth day in a row because we still don't have any running water at my house to wash the clothes. There's holes in my school short. And so I put a finger in the hole and ripped it so you could see my underwear. Then I got in trouble for not having appropriate uniform. Then I got in trouble from dad when I got home because I got in trouble at school. He yelled at me in German. It was a pretty good day.  What would your dad say in German if you got in trouble at school? That's it. Yeah, which is German. Direction number 69 from Julian Tennyson Woods from Ashgrove. 460 till I die.  I think he says postcode, I believe. I think so. It doesn't matter. OK. Today, I practice pig Latin with some 12 year old up and comers. Then I showed them how to stab your mates in the back and to trust no one.  So even if you're filming a video with your friend and see they have these weird multicolored pit stains from Faked Hand, don't say anything to them after until after filming because it's funny when other people are laughing at your friends.  You stab stab. What a very good one. Specific diary entry there. Very good one. Which happened.  He had tie dye underneath his armpits. Like if Faked Hand, if you sweat while you have Faked Hand on and I was wearing a white shirt, it didn't really look. It looked cool.  It looked like that was your style. You just had tie dye underneath. Yeah, you would be the only person to think that. Everyone else would think that cunts sweating so profusely that he's sweating colors. What did you look like after taco? Huh? What did you look like after taco? I was wearing a darker shirt, but yeah, same thing. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to throw those shirts in the bin. No, you can watch him. You can watch him. I washed my tie, Faked Hand shirt today. And what it all off? I think so.  All right, fine. I'll do that then, man. If that's what you really want. Stains on the eggs. You want me to do that?   Save the earth. All right, man. Don't feed it, shirt.  Diary entry number 1322 from Matthew Gregory Brown. I followed them to the movies and sat right behind them at the back. I sunk down in my seat and observed them through the gap in my seats in front of me. My heart was pounding with jealousy and my little brown trembled. Why was she conversing with him over me? Is it because he has a nice car? Because he has many friends?  It made no sense to me. Couldn't she see how dark and mysterious I was?  I fought to hold back my rage. Sweat droplets formed on my upper lip and I swiftly lapped them up with my tongue. I saw him put his arm around her and I've lost control. I stood up and marched out of the cinema. My shirt was now drenched in rage, sweat, and my fists were clenched so tightly I felt my fingernails puncture my skin. I stormed off to the bathroom and grabbed a cup on the way. I locked myself in a cubicle and began stimulating my anal gland. With my pointer finger, I pressed firmly onto my anal gland and started rubbing fast and erratically. My brown dot fizzed and popped as it came to life. Foam started pouring out of my brown hole and I let it fill the cup. My anal fizz was creamy and plump.  I sat directly behind the slut and her accomplice. I scooped out a handful of my anal fizz and I blew it up in the air. I watched it float down on top of them. I held back my laughter by biting my bottom lip as hard as I could. I bit so hard that blood began gushing into my mouth. The couple stood and tried to locate where the foam had come from. All they saw was my cup and I acted as confused as them. You're that freak from school, aren't you? Said the boy, I had been recognized.  I too started screaming and sprinted home backwards. I always fall in love with the sluts. I hope one day she can see I was only trying to help her. Now, on to the next. Oh, my God.   So, yuck, man. That's a lot of anger. You don't have that anymore? Questions. Let's move on to some questions. OK, let's try and forget about that. I loved it.  Anal fizzing. I've never, yeah, anal fizzing sounds hard.  I'm pretty sure he was bullying you. Yeah, yeah, of course. Creamy anal fizz. Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Can you, you should fill a bottle with it. Dude, dude, dude. What would happen? You should start keeping your loads in a bottle. I thought you were going to put your loads in a bottle. Yeah, it's hard to fucking... Why don't you just add them to that?   Well, it does stay liquefied. Yeah, well, because someone sent it in and it stayed liquid in that little jar until Michael put it on his arm and rubbed it in.  Oh, it flies in. Something's wrong with your jizz. Do you reckon not combine it with that bottle? Yeah, it's a completely separate experiment. And then after, if we would like, we can combine them and maybe some sort of foam explosion, or maybe your spit will fertilize the sperm and you'll have some sort of... Might make something. It could be a child. Insects or something. I don't know what makes it. I just had an idea. Like, okay, a bit off topic from that, sort of similar. It's still gross.   It was like anal fizz. Well, you'd be like the flower thing. You could fart and it'd spray in the air. Yeah, I don't think it would... What, you're thinking it would fizz or something? Would you have to put maybe water in there with it? Yeah, I think so, yeah. Otherwise it would just be... You'd want diarrhea. What about those pop rocks? Is anal fizz real? What about those pop rocks?  They're all like a leader of a mean and then just pull the cheeks apart. And then look into a hole and seal the pop rock. Yeah, well, yeah, that's an idea. Something to think about. As scientists, we're always trying to, you know, come up with new groundbreaking experiments, such as...  Look, we're going on another level, you know? But I will do. Like, one day. Not in the next few months. What did Cunt get the Nobel Prize for last year?   Yeah, really?   We've got the video evidence.  And we do do that. We do do that.  Yeah, we forget. We lose it a lot of the time, too. We lose it. You need science journals. Yeah, maybe. We can't read or write yet, though. We already can. The first question, actually the highest requested question was for me. Yes. It comes from Steven Hunt. Have you thought any more about getting a pet after your encounter with the neighbor's cats? I'm definitely down for pets. 100%. I don't know about that, Matt. What are you basing that you want another pet because, like, she's referring to the diary entry, right?  I'm just saying you do want a cat.  I don't know if I want a cat, but I want something. You want a husky. I have wanted a husky at times. Would you rather a dog or a cat? A dog. How come you don't have one? Well, maybe for your birthday. We'll see.  A King Charles.  You had bites here, man. It's got cysts. It's covered in fleas and shit, man.   Oh, yucky, yucky. All right. The next most requested question was from Steven Brown. Sorry, Steve Brown, my brother. Apart from storming the field at the AFL Grand Final, have you guys ever been in any major trouble with the police? Yeah, we've been arrested, but it's never been like major trouble. Yeah.  What's the most fucking... Fuck. The French police got you pretty good. We used to live in a big share house and one of the roommates upstairs that we barely spoke to was a drug dealer. A pinger dealer, so that house...  Just bought it and they put it on...  But the reason why I got done was because of the hairs and the weed was right there. If I had hit the weed, we would have been sweet. Yeah, and then he had to go to... But it's just a slap on the cock. Even if I did get a criminal charge for marijuana use, I don't care. That's literally... that means nothing to me.  We do what we want with plants.  Just smoke weed everyone. Next one is from Donut Films. That's the skin from his feet. Michael's indigested some of that. Will we ever see Timmy and Calvin Junior again after the recent... Yeah, so the Calvin Junior... He's referring to a website video for those who don't know. We did a big series, a three-part series of these two characters and Calvin shot himself in the last series but it's revealed that Calvin Junior he was his and Timmy's love child and he comes out. So yeah, it's to be continued. It's not over yet. I don't think it'll ever be overcome.  Exactly. Look, it looked like he shot himself but Calvin is a very resilient psychopath. A very resilient psychopath. Alright, keep going. Next question, I can't actually read the name but try it. Try it, Matt. If it's letters and numbers... Here we go. I'm just going to attempt to read the name. Excellent in reds. Yeah, exactly. Excellent in reds. Do you boys ever fall in love with a teacher when you're in high school? This is quite like... Oh, there is. There's something deep. Are you talking about Miss Arbuck? Yeah. Why would you fall in love with one in high school? Not really.  Oh, they didn't hate me. Some of them were one in particular but they were very old school teachers so they're very strict and they just didn't mesh well with my work ethic. My severe ADD. Yeah. But in high school, yeah, Miss Arbuck she's alright.  So Michael just really... Hang on. Oh, fuck, man. Oh, please be so. Please be so. We broke the frequency. Sound wave and robot fart. Sound wave. Now on a fraction try and get a bit more. Was that too loud? I don't know. It was hard to tell. It was quite a strange alien sound. It worked. Yeah, I'll put it on the medium. Can you guys hear me? It worked. It's different. I enjoyed it. We'll play it back after. Anyway, I'll let it go. Look, it's something happening. Oh! Really? We got presents.  It's a heart! It's a heart! It's a heart! So beautiful. It was so beautiful.    I usually have that one. It must have swapped out at some point.  Oh! Oh, my children. I was in labor then. Let me know when you're ready. I'm ready now. We've plugged them electricity-wide. Yeah, we fixed the base. This is a bit of a long one, but it has a point. It's from Thong Bonestorm.  I was eating buffalo chicken dip with some potato chips when the spit bottle was pulled out last episode. Every texture in my mouth became Michael's throat sludge. I've never gagged harder in my life, but in the moments of dry heaving and struggling to keep everything I've already swallowed down and to keep what was I was currently chewing in my mouth I had an epiphany. Question for the podcast. Why doesn't Michael pour that bottle in a saucepan on the stove and slowly boil it until it reduces into a thick paste intensifying the flavour. Then eat some of it, spread it on toast-like jam, or just eat a spoonful. Put it on the website so I have something to bat over later. Oh man. Great idea. The reason why I'm doing this is because something will come from it. This could cure something someday. Probably.  Cure anything. If you have Parkinson's, you can use a bit of golly. No one knows.  Matt, they haven't done it yet.  There's a lot of it, you could just take a little bit. If it's for medical reasons, I'll watch. I think once you cook it all, you'd have to use a lot of golly to get... You'd need like half that bottle and a small spoon. Most of the bottle is just water. The only golly part... Wait! Oh my God! This is not good! I can feel it ripping me open! But... It's me, D-Man! This is going to kill me one day. This will be my cause of death. This will be my cause of death. Oh, fuck, dude! That is heavy shit!  Gollies cure cancer! Gollies cure cancer! Hahahahaha! Hahahahaha! Hahahahaha! Hahahahaha! Hahahahaha!  Hahahahaha! Hahahahaha! Oh my God, my… My stomach hurts. Hahahahaha! Ahhh!   My does it cost much to get their phone replaced? No, we can fix it up Maybe we should put a plastic bag over or something There's a lot of there's a lot of get a lot of my get on it a lot of build up.  I need to leave Look at that the bottoms cool This flies on the top. Anyway, Matthew continue with the questions. Haha. All right. Next one is from Corey sponsored by man's gate Do you guys actually want a proper tattoo like sleeve or a full leg or anything like that? I know you've talked about that. I was thinking about getting some little half sleeves But then I thought I don't know what to get first of all like I don't know I don't know what serious tattoos. I would get so I just get maybe just heaps of different cakes Yeah, he has been saying the cakes for a while.  Yeah, like the shoes obviously.  Maybe we should just get like Gloves tattooed on our hands and like a shirt. Yeah Something we the other thing that sort of stops me is You know, I've tennis coaching for 15 years.  I could just use the golly potion But I'm pretty sure I'm gonna get skin cancer and then I won't be able to see the moles Yeah, well, yeah Anyway Yeah, we're thinking about it.  Well, we'll go back to corporate box. They're legends Yeah, that's true They do anything it was we won't mention now. They've changed the next question is from Dane One well who got in trouble at school more as little girls Marty or Michael Marty would have did you even get into trouble in primary school primary school. I was school captain I've said that many times at least 12 But yeah, no primary school.  Just concentrate and I'd be like And it's like 3 a.m. In the morning and it's During a few hours got to the point where every because like we've been going for hours and hours and hours every fucking 20 seconds he'd lose concentration and start flipping out and I'd have to sit there and try and calm him focus on the screen you can do this That was a long That's and that's how it was for me doing assignments so you can imagine you can see why I procrastinated so much and left them till a night before because Like it's just it's a very difficult process to get through. It's a lot of sitting down My parents bedroom was right next door. Is it the upstairs computer?   Yeah, dude But she said to me. She's like it was really severely messed up But the writing and the detail was unbelievable. She's like it just flowed really well and like The grandma was incredible So like yeah, it was it sort of catch 22 very similar.  She was so hot back then. Oh, man.  She still is yeah, I haven't seen it for a while So I haven't seen it for years, but yeah, remember when she was like, yeah, you remember.  We're still gonna be together. We can't Alright, it's just a couple of quick ones What was your from Andrew Park? What is your favorite dirty Sanchez episode or stunt?    Yeah, I think you answered Sabrina's question in there as well She asked have you ever thought about redoing some so redoing the painful one would be great. Yeah, that's my dream That's what I want to do a suction. I'll do the Okay, want me to do it.  Oh, there we go. You would do that. Yep I will book it in tomorrow After yeah, we'll get another fake tan and some more Botox.  We just had a cut of question and we're not allowed to say what it was Anyway, next question. I'm just gonna leave.  Like do you get nightmares about it when you think about it? No, but fun fact ever since then that's when I haven't known if I snored for a while But that's when I started officially snoring after that.   I must have it I had a lot of river water.  We've done not from I don't really get proper I don't dream me like I just I like I just sit in bed my eyes are wide open I'm just sitting up when I just looking around and then some comes up day starts a lot I had another fun fact for when we were kids whenever during the night. He's mighty pretty much lived at my house Whenever I was like I'd awake at night.  Very good. Next segment is the German section Jingle again dimension Zen for us dimension Zen for us.   Here we go transform to German Just it's literally just there It's mayhem It's mayhem here with the phones about the dive farts are coming. We need the extension cords We're being German. Yeah.  We're gonna morph back into German. Oh, I'm gonna try man. That was That's a just a taste leave all that in corner, that's just a taste for you guys some of the Insanely stressful things that we have to deal with.   Tell you what? It's unbelievable. All right The end let's burn in volume decision That's not any German there. Is that gibberish to you? Yeah Yeah, well, you know the dialect is correct and the intensity is close to being correct Oh, but the content itself of the wording is not right at all It's actually quite difficult to understand Okay, you go this is how you read it, okay Can you stand living and fallen?  That's outstanding very motivating. I've got goose bumps All right, here we go See if you can improve this time hot the Stay Hot the audience see see the stay or stay at the end. I don't know Hmm Interesting Let me have a look. Okay. Yes. There's some hard words to say. There's a tongue twisters. That's for sure Let me have a go. Okay you go Hi, the orange stifle Hi, the orange stifle Stifle stifle stifle Stifle stifle stifle stifle Stay or stay was wrong. It's stifle, which means hold the ears stiff Which means stay strong.   I feel like an emo teenager. Yeah. Yeah, like are you a girl or a boy though? I'm not sure like I'm thinking I am don't genderize me your name is Dakota. I'm both Genders. Yeah, Dakota that that is Dakota.  Okay, so I reckon I wish I did of us I wish I did of us Matias, I wish I did of us First day to me I wish I did of us. I wish I did of us. What's it mean? It means I wish you what? Which means I wish you anything. I wish you well wish why not say wish you well there It's like So many examples I've given you yeah, I know but just can't translate literally sometimes Do you know what I mean? It's just not how the world works. All right, I guess it's just our culture You know what I mean? Okay, it's how we are like it's just how we talk and we're different and that's okay Everyone's different and that's okay We're all okay And different Okay, I'm gonna remember this character. I feel like there's a good prank called a domino to dominoes Do you guys use like German emo guys use like actual me or is it like meet free me?  Hey, you know I cut my hair last night and you guys haven't said anything Yeah, it's always nice and short now. It looks far better now that you've shaved your head Like you are bald. You're lucky that you look good, but it looks better. You got a good head shave. You're lucky.  We'll see Whatever Next segment the PO unboxing where you guys send in anything that you want we get sent Anything any bodily fluids you find on the ground send us a rock send us some grass from your backyard Send us your mother's watch Anything you want and we open it live on the podcast and that's what we're gonna do now We have three gifts to open all right and this one is from UG I don't know if he wants his name read so I'm just not going to okay has a tear in it already Yeah, yeah, I did that earlier. I couldn't help myself. I'll put a little tear in it to have a little sniffy sniff All right, it's a big package. Well, not that big but it's a medium-sized package. Well, let's see what we got here, right?  I think it's Viagra.    Well, wait. No, because would they get demonetized anyway? Yeah, true. All right, there it is and it says Rhonda was here. It's a very good drawing very detailed So thank you for that dick drawing and thank you for the Viagra. I'm sure this will come in handy.  I'm not yeah, I would have preferred like Valium. Yeah, of course of course But you know any drug is good and at the end of the day like we live in a first world country And there are so many people in the world That would kill for this Well, I'm sure there's probably one more than that like maybe Some corn All you need is one Job done you and your family can survive. Do you want any it?  I reckon Again, you'll be wanting one of them when you have sex with a prostitute Again, yeah, sure.  This feels like it's got something in it Yeah, dude, it's so hard.   Thank you for that I'm looking to code is a bit All right. Yeah, next one. This is sort of on okay What do we have it's a letter full of some this is from Martin? Oh, no Martin mix I think that means to us. I think we might have another code here with Michael crack that other code I hope it's another code Michael loves doing the codes a bunch of screws.  Thank you Adam much Adam You're an absolute legend and we will definitely be using those To does that say Karen now Wait, you wait That was a that was a week But I'm glad you're trying like it's good. They're back. I'm happy that you're back to know what's wrong with me, man So, yeah, we got some cool stickers as well. Thank you Adam. My farts have been all damaged They got gaps in them again Gaps in me guts Lots of stickers from Adam. What's he got here? He's got some indigenous stickers. We've got some Skull and bone our shop The guitar shop in La Trobe Terrace rip curl Brisbane here. Chuck that on your car Yeah, we've got a sticker of a kid. Oh sticker of a kid Matt.  That's me. I've got the bowls of spit You got a golly bottle, brother. That's far more like That's legal. All right. Yeah, okay. Yeah back to last week someone sent us a code. I decoded it This one was shorter. Thank you.   Okay, Marty Michael took him four hours to decode right?  Maybe I don't know a random fact Have you been stalked by Matt Brown when you're writing about that sure we have many people who've been stalked by Matt Brown I know five myself Next question That's the question that's been done Decoded man, okay now Next segment last segment last oh no no cuz you got prank call but last segment before prank call is That's it.  Okay. Oh fucking.  Nothing's happened. So Shannon.  Okay, I'll have a sit down and we'll start it then all right So it's definitely gonna be up and running by the next week Okay, and we saw some comments people saying three to four dollars. I think that's fair Matt for some sexually suggestive photos I'll be in it too. So it's not just just me and we don't even have to name it Matthew Brown. It'd be like Matthew Gregory or something. No, I don't want it to be my name We can call it the fully actual you want it. Why don't we leave it to the fans?  Oh really? Yeah, man No Think of a team name for it, but we will all feature in yeah But we'll let them make sense. Let let the people decide I think it's an only fans for the people let the people decide what it's called and how much it is and so far We got three dollars fifty per month. I'm glad this is at the end of the podcast. Yeah, it's so annoying I can't believe we forgot. Yes. He's forgotten. See that's what we could have done yesterday We could have started Matt's only fans. Yeah Anyway missed opportunity It's okay. We'll we'll be better. We'll learn from our mistakes and we'll we'll grow from it Boss has had an absolute guffaw. Yeah, boss. He's so hungry.  He's always standing at doors now So he's looking at James. Oh my god.   Yeah, I'll bet you are mate You and I love that guy. You got a thing for him.   Yeah, and it's highly aggressive and horny and it has come to your wife and it's got Two legs one on the front one on the back and needs constant help walking Ever the legs are in the center. Yeah, it's like it's in between where it's legs would normally go Come on Hello, my name Arnold fine you look after Animal yes Yep Okay, I have one large animal. I need maybe three four day.     So you can Look, I I think it's a strange I ask I know but um, what if maybe I pay double or triple money And offer maybe a bit more money so you can look after my pig. It's a very gentle pig. Okay I send you photo Do you want photo of the pig?  Unfortunately. We only do dogs and cats without facility. We don't we don't take any other animals Do you have a cage? Do you have dogs only?  No one even see you put the cage in the back corner and wear the bushes Maybe you put him in there Sorry, but just wait. I have a I can surely we can think about something here my pig He he leave a weed dog.  Yes.   The name is different.  Okay same letter same amount of Same thing.   They say that in the book there in the russian book. I read say pig dog same thing Unfortunately, I can't take him. I'm sorry. Okay. What if I put him to sleep? Okay. I put him to sleep.   Don't worry feed. He sometimes three days. No food. No big deal. Okay And I come in three days time and I just come collect and you make three times money for me borrowing your cage I'm really sorry. We're unable to take him like I said Is there uh someone maybe I can talk to maybe manager or something there must be something we can work on My pig is already in the back of my truck. I'm halfway to your place already Exactly what I'm telling you. Are you from brisbane melbourne sydney your camera? I'm in brisbane. I'm in brisbane. Not brisbane We see, okay, we see I have a lot of money, okay Oh, hello, Lisa. I uh speaker to someone Just now a lady she said uh It's okay for me to bring my pig to your facility.  He live with dog. He behave like dog.    We do not take any other pets other than cats or dogs The lady just say to me she say um that she that you That it's okay if I bring pig as long as it only three four days And she said that she will not be able to treat my pig Like the dogs and I say that okay, and I also say to her I pay Three times the normal amount. Hmm. That's very very generous for me For you to put my pig in cage And you just put it outside in the back somewhere. Don't even worry about it Just put it in the cage or something like that.  Yeah, why she we should tell you that unfortunately because we only have care plans in place But uh, I do vet for uh at uni. Okay, and I read a book there.  They look a little different.  I've seen you pig and dog in the wild Playing or flicking around in the back out. I've seen it. I've seen pig and dog living together and the woman before she said Yes, okay. If you've done uni at the vet which I have That it's okay. I understand I grew up with with pigs and dogs Same thing. It's the same thing a policy. We will only board cats and dog. What if I? Look my pig. I can make it I look like a dog. Okay. What if I put dog hair on it? I put a color Color it brown or something like that brown or black or something and bring it in. We put a little fur on its Huff on its Head and it'll look like a dog and no one knows it a difference. I don't understand what the problem is Plus you make three times the money Hmm Yeah, it does.  He's a name of fly net. He's a name of fly net. You love the pig. He come over.  He play with other dogs. He'd never seen cut before So I don't know about the cut but he play with other dogs.   My wife cannot look after the pig. So I will have to I'll have to shoot it. I'll have to shoot it if I can't find someone to put it in a cage Right. Have you tried contacting any rural vets?  Yeah, I we just can't help you there.  Okay. I bring him in for you to see yourself Who will make a decision maybe I maybe I speak to someone who can help me Maybe who the owner I can speak to all I need to show you photo of my peak. He looks like a dog It's unbelievable. Sometimes he barks Sometimes he barks in the backyard for food Don't even know what to say to you right now. I'm sorry. No, it's okay. I know a strange request, but I bring him in and you see his His behavior Is it just like a dog? It's very strange. He means a lot to the family. He was at my wedding He bring the ring to my wife down the aisle And he he a dog he has as far as As I am concerned.  I walk him.   You have a fish and then you have a bigger fish. It's still fish Little fish big fish. They do the same thing.  I show you do not decide yet I know policy policy small city, but I bring him in I show you the peak And then we decide yes Okay, okay, I'm a 10 or 15 minutes away I bring him in and we decide then okay I have a cash I have a cash in my hand And I show you the peak. Okay. I know you I know you cannot say yes right now But you wait till you see my peak dog.  She cannot look after the peak and I need to leave for work You understand My problem Yeah, no, I do But unfortunately you're going to have to find another option for your peak wife is sick Okay, I'll be there maybe five ten minutes. Okay. I ring doppel you come out find to see the peak and then if you still want to say no I leave okay. I leave and no problem, but I just wanted to show you my peak Okay Okay, no problem. Okay. I see you on 10 or 15 minutes. Lisa. You are a lovely girl and I love you. Okay Not a problem. Okay. I love you darling.  I think we are let's go and I'll go with When that because they're nearly closed now, but We should go there with bozzly And be like this maya peak Yeah, that is not a bad idea. But then what if they take him and put him down? No, you gotta put him in properly.     Matt. What do you reckon?  Yeah, a ute. Yeah. Anyway, there you go.   Just leave you with a little midnight thought. All right good night Night thought a night thought a night thought All right. Good job


Welcome to AG MOOC lectures this week we are going to talk about GIS in estimation of water availability for effective planning that is what we wanted to do in this case water availability for a different crop area planning activities and although for the form related issues and how it could be assessed as well as how it could be made use of it that is what we are planning to do it in this year. This week we are going to talk about the surface runoff assessment and what all the different models that are you being used for water availability studies. Now if you look at the what all the different problems in this is it is considered as a global hydrological cycle that means that the water is transferred between land ocean and the atmosphere that is one aspect which covers the water availability. Second aspect is it is the land based hydrological cycle that is the water movement from one place to another place in a physical chemical and other interactions with the wet material that takes place and the biological processes that could conduct the affect the movement. Then the third process is the hydrological processes that involves space encases a space as well as time scales and this is the usual thing which is there in the basins over the larger areas where water availability is estimated and used for planning purposes. Now what are the different what we instead of a global hydrological processes what we are interested is only on the hydrological processes this hydrological processes is explained like this you have the precipitation which falls on to that as soon as the precipitation falls it gets there are two varieties one is the infiltration and another thing is the evapotra vegetation canopy and the related activity the third thing is the surface runoff which moves from one end to another end this surface runoff takes place immediately after moisturizing the surface soil conditions and then it moves further down taking the through the steams and rainages and it gets filled up either in the pond or in the soil profile or in the tubules or steams. So this is what we are interested whereas this is the hydrological processes which takes place immediately after the rainfall that takes place now after that this is what we are interested in the steams as well as in the ponds how much amount of water which is being stored that is important for a surface water availability so which can be channelized and made use of it for our agriculture purposes another type of utility which we can have it whatever the see pages that takes place either from the ponds or from the steams so that is moves on to the aquifer and either in the shallow aquifer that is being used as a groundwater sources. So the water the rainfall availability analysis is more important as well as the how much is the surface water which is likely to be stored under the particular rainfall scheme as well as how much is being percolated into the groundwater or the shallow aquifer that can be used as a supplementary irrigation for the next cropping patterns. Now the basic thing which we are talking about is the water balance what is the water balance is normally people they talk about what in the quantity the precipitation the quantity evapotranspiration and what is the thing so now everything is made in the form of when you want to calculate it how much is the precipitation how much is the evapotranspiration how much is the runoff so what is the balance which you are able to get it out. So this is what is being done for a year while so in 97 for a particular purpose there is a balance of 108 that means whereas 2009 it is about only 138 is being added. So in this is if there is going to be a rainfall of 983 but what we are likely to get is the runoff is going to be about 443 millimetres and the rest of it is in the form of a loss or if it is stored elsewhere. So that is what we are trying to give in this diagram is some part of it is the total rainfall out of this how much is being evaporated and how much is being available in the form of a runoff. This is the water balance approach which normally people use it between the relationship between the rainfall and the runoff relationship is being used in agriculture as well as in the hydrological processes. Now when you look at it one of those areas wherein in this particular region it is the minimum rainfall it is the minimum rainfall that is going to be a 63 percentage is used as a evapotranspiration whereas only 34 percentage is available for the utility as a water which can be used. Similarly in the dry year the 78 percentage is the loss as well as only 29 or percentage is available for the utility purposes. So irrespective whether rain is more or not what we are likely to use from that rainfall is it is about 30 to 40 percentage and if the temperature is more then the availability is very less. This is the water balance approach which people are use it for calculating. Now what are the different kinds of data inputs which we need is we need a elevation model so that it is used in the water movement then we have the other models like index indicators as well as we need cropping system cultivation what type of cultivation it is happening whether it is a irrigation system and solving changes and all those things all these parameters are added or calculated or used as an input in the water requirement purposes. When we talk about runoff runoff what is the surface runoff surface runoff occurs when the rainfall input exceeds exceed losses such as interception losses that interception takes place because of the crown in the tree crowns as well as the immediate infiltration as well as the over operation and surface storage losses. This surface runoff you will be able to measure it in the form in the by having a gauge in the river gauge stations they measure this surface runoff. Now there are different models which you use it for making up for calculating what is the surface runoff under a given rainfall condition under a given terrain characteristics terrain characteristics includes the relief then what is the land use pattern and what all the different conditions ups and downs which is happening in this area. So this is done normally for a sub river basin so when then we have to understand what is the watershed what is the river basin see watershed is the smallest unit varying the work because of the elevation difference around it wherever the water gets wherever the rainfall falls over there it comes over to the normal screen and then moves down that is the smallest unit of a water river basin river basins may be thousands of kilometers or it may be hundreds of kilometers of that kind of category. So what are the different models which are used in the basin analysis is one thing is a conceptual model the conceptual models they talk about the physical conditions and associated processes that are there in the hydrological cycle. What are the different models which are being used by the water resources engineers is they are soil conservation SES model then we have the tank model we have the top model when we do have SWAT model this these are all the few models that are being widely used in the water availability estimation of an watershed or of a river basin now what we have seen till now is we have we are interested in knowing what is the water availability under a given rainfall based on that water availability is it possible for us to store and then use it up for that purpose what is needed is the rainfall amount and how much it can how much it generates the surface runoff which can be stored and there are this is this is the surface runoff is dependent on the interceptions by the trees or cannot tree canopies as well as surface vegetation condition as well as the surface cover factors. So we will see further about how do we classify all the how do we estimate on a river basin scale in the next lecture. Thank you.

He takes us on a journey about his growth and ambition. He has featured artists such as The Phenomenal Woman herself, Fener, Skam Kadinali, Nyeshinski and more. The album has eight tracks such as Nairopigal, Kengele and I Want, which he released last year and it has already hit a million views. Congratulations Chris Keiger. Chris Brown is not about to catch a break because he is just being hit by lawsuits left, right and center.  According to reports, the overtime hitmaker urged her to go to PDD's home in Miami Star Island and when she got there, Chris offered her a drink which she took. She went ahead and took a second drink which she claims made her feel a certain change in her consciousness. From there, she felt disoriented, physically unstable and started to fall in and out of sleep and that's when Chris Brown led her to the bedroom. The statement did not indicate what happened next but report has it that she was drugged and half asleep. She is now suing for $20 million for severe emotional damage.
