Remember we asked a listener. We asked a listener a little earlier on Or we asked on behalf of a little or a listener earlier on how much you put in a card and you Responded thank you morning. Greg. I'd put a hundred euro into a card. It's more than enough in my opinion My friend is here beside me having a cup of tea whilst we listen and she says i'm cheap that she put in 200 into a card What about 150 have another cup of tea and uh say will 150 uh be agreeable for you. Thank you Uh, what's the name of the book the man you had on there referred to about his experiences in Auschwitz Man's search for me by victor franklin is the name of the book man's search for me In relation to smart meters. Greg you stated in the future. We'll all have to get smart meters in personally I feel everyone should have the right to choose We shouldn't feel pushed into getting something into our household that we do not want I get you but I think it's going to be a little bit like You know Wanting your phone calls to be delivered to you on copper cable like you might want that But unfortunately if you do and you know no one's going to have a big opinion on that It's probably not going to happen because everything's being switched to fiber, isn't it? Uh, Greg my three daughters had a traffic Accident on the dual carriageway last night a doctor had stopped on the scene to see if they were okay And if they needed assistance He just finished a night shift at out in the gulf and hospital and was so accommodating and kind to my girls With all the chaos we didn't catch his name or a chance to properly thank him If by lucky happens to be listening I wanted to say thank you very much. So that doctor may well be If they were coming off a night shift May still be within earshot if you are Your intervention with these this listeners three daughters is greatly appreciated They wish they had your name. They don't and they just want to Thank you Right, we've carried out river restoration projects on salmon spawning which have great results Okay, that's someone who's obviously oh it's actually from the mill river conservation group. Thanks very much for that Let me see David fold is going to be joining us right now. I mentioned that didn't I very shortly Greg there is nothing wrong with being angry. It's a feeling aren't we always told to embrace those feelings? Yes, and I don't think our guest was suggesting otherwise what he's saying and I recognize it's not for everyone that you challenge those feelings um into positivity Needs to be preached to football spectators and players abusing refuge Referees, yeah, okay um Maybe I don't think that's going to work.

Good morning to you david. Good morning. Does alternative remedies describe it correctly? It does. It does. Complementary as well. Complementary I would use more than alternative to be quite offset. I think things have changed a little bit now haven't they? So going forward we're going to refer to them as complimentary remedies It's it's it could be a struggle to get younger people, you know From toddlers to whatever age they might be to have a varied diet. Okay And you know parents might at times suspect that they could be prone to illness or what have you Is there anything that's safe to give to to to younger children? You know to keep but to enrich them and to to help maintain their immune systems Yeah, oh brilliant. I mean really like I mean one of the greatest things I mean is is actually Soups, you know to be quite honest, you know, so like all kids don't like maybe their vegetables So sometimes, you know, if you can make it into a soup, they'll drink the soup homemade soups now So that's a great way you can get multi-vitamin Like even in kind of sweet form, you know, that that kids can take So if you really want to cover all the options, you know, yeah, okay But just look for different ways that masks. Yeah masks. Yeah, and I soups are I always think are Marvellous way to do it. We're always told soups were good for us.  Is there anything natural for psoriasis? Psoriasis that is a tough one really I mean, I you know, we have things that kind of ease the symptoms like like, you know, that maybe like out of here and things I think take a bit of Sharpness out of it, but really like in in the health of jobs. We don't really have much For for psoriasis. I'm afraid, you know, a good anti-inflammatory diet is very helpful So yeah cutting down on sugars and things because that increases information in the body, you know Too much meat or heavy foods can increase the information too. So cutting back on these things particularly sugars Can help with psoriasis and I think David it's always very fair of you in that, you know, you know There's no silver bullet to a lot of things, isn't it? There's a holistic approach So maybe there might be something that takes the edge off things But also too there's other areas of your lifestyle in terms of diets and what have you that might be required a slight change to supplement your Absolutely, absolutely. Small adjustments can make a big difference sometimes, you know Yeah, um, can David please recommend anything for tiredness and weakness after having the flu and finishing a course of antibiotics So they feel down after that might be well, but yeah, that's very true It's very common thing we see, you know one of the first things I think you mentioned that the biotics there is you can get you know probiotics that are designed to actually Build up the bacteria in the gut again. So that's one of the first things Now if a person often after does food a bit one that we don't often take enough time to recover in the past We used to take more recovery time. We're going to streak on get back into work So, you know if we can't do that, you know, it's good to take things that'll build up the immune system So do we think sometimes, you know, say for instance, you have a flu The the we might read up and they say, you know, you should feel better in three to five days or something, right? And then on day six, you still feel a bit And you think well, there must be something wrong with me, but it's just everyone sort of recovers at different paces Yes, and it depends the severity of it obviously, you know, so, you know You know, we have to give her a time to recover time to recover and we can help that along with with good diet But also like there's things like astragalus Siberian ginseng Korean ginseng. These are actually things that are very very helpful Licrous as well as another one. So these things actually help to Bed body quickly back into its or strong stages. Well, that's what's going to ask you in terms of How long it takes for things to begin to work Will quite a number of complementary remedies like you've just mentioned there You you'll start to feel the positive impacts of it quite quickly There's different herbs do different things now So for example, like if you took for instance, valerian, which is a herb for helping to relax and for sleep It is an immediate effect wouldn't in 10 minutes you're feeling the effect of it where other things like Over a long time period of time you might need it for a long period like to say the mushrooms Which are fantastic to build up the immune system. They they would be used in a long term use So like reishi be great mushroom for actually building Feet with allergies and people are run down reishi be fantastic mushroom for that But you know, you have to take them for a number of months to see the benefit So it just depends like serbian jinx thing And korean jinx are very fast acting you start seeing the effect very rapidly. So it just depends on which herb you use Really, yeah, and that's done in consultation with someone like yourself. So you can Manage people's expectations or elevate them Defending you what on what you suggest and they might take Um Hi, david. What is the best probiotic for ibs for ibs? Well, there's a number of ones that are out there specifically designed For ibs and there's there's actually if you go to the down to the health which is sort of chemists You'll actually find specific ones that are designed What we're finding now is that the the actual bacteria and it got effect our immune system our nervous system You know really a wide range of so they even Have probiotics now that will affect people have anxiety And and and you know, so it a nervous system problems as well as you know Straightforward building the immune system. How is that working? Is that in in some way? Promoting the growth of certain things within your guts that benefit you or we don't get want to get too scientific But it's quite interesting how you know putting something in your mouth or consuming something then could have that type of an Amazing really what there's so much resource nowadays on the gut itself So the gut itself really is your connection with the outside world, you know So everything you take into your body. It has to go through the gut So 70 percent they reckon of your immune system is actually in the gut. So all this bacteria in our gut are incredibly Important for our health. So they fix all areas like even as I say nervous system problems like sleep even You know, so it's a wide range of things. So there's what what the search is showing that in Certain bacteria they've noticed Effects certain areas so you can go and you can actually get a probiotic suit a certain condition And IBS is one of those. Okay This list now has two children under the age of two at kresh Everything every turnaround. There seems to be a new illness be chicken pox the vomiting virus colds Um, is there anything other than a vitamin supplement that can be given to the children to build up their immune system? this caller has older children and They never had all of these illnesses. They believe anyway. That's what they feel Well, you know, since covert really there has been, you know, there's been very bad infections Like long infection are not covert but actual fact because we were so isolated during the period of covert and It particularly children were very isolated. We interfered with nature Absolutely We were actually working getting those little cause and things that they normally go and they get to the crash So all of a sudden then you released them out into the society and they're getting things and and they're getting them harder because These actual infections things help to strengthen our immune system, you know So really they they've lacked that for a number of years So I would suggest that this this person now like there is a number of particularly very good Herbal combinations that help her astragalus is one, you know, uh, there's very very all these things are very safe with children There's actually combinations there that actually are designed to the way because multivitamins are great In there if they're lacking some but if they're not lacking something sometimes the immune system needs a little bit of a Liftup so astragalus would be one of those things A listener's prone to kidney infections. Is there anything they can take as a preventative measure? Yeah, well, you know, there's actually like Some people find cranberry very good. They cranberry and I would always advise, you know Cranberry Because some people actually just go into the supermarket right and take a carton of cranberry juice off the shelf That's not what we're talking about here. No, not really like, you know, you can get cranberry with that in Sometimes they've they've put them in capsule form sometimes in liquid form, but they take not the sugar You see the sugar the trouble is when you take these Cranberry juice off the huge amounts of sugar because cranberry is very Sharp the day so they put loads of sugar and that sugar then is not very good for the thing For the unit tract infection. So it kind of loses all its benefit. The other thing. It's a very simple thing that is barley, you know, you know barley itself if you make a If you use kind of 100 grams of barley, you know A one pint of water and you and you boil that up for 20 minutes and You create barley water you add a bit of honey to it and that's a lovely drink And that actually very very good for Unit tract infection just backing up a little bit Is it Is it's understood that if you drink more sugary drinks or have more sugar in your tea that you might be more prone to kidney infections Yeah, absolutely. How does that work?  All right. Okay. This is say where you are because we've the phone lines have Gone berserk in a good way With people coming in with questions So that means I have to take a quick break and hold on to you for another 10 minutes.

Oh, that's very nice. Thank you very much I'm on beta blockers and blood thinners Can I take vitamin c and zinc while on these tablets? Oh, absolutely. There's no problem. They don't conflict What would you recommend for a lack of sleep while in menopause? Well, you know valerian is a wonderful herb for for this, you know, so we have a combination of valerian there that actually will help first and it's been Proved to help with the menopause symptoms to valerian and david does that help you get off? Or does it give you a better quality of sleep less likely for disruption both in actual fact Sometimes it depends on each patient, you know, each person, you know, if it It will give you a better quality sleep would also put you to sleep very fast But sometimes it needs to be combined with other herbs and we have combinations there that will help that too I think it's valerian the one we spoke of before that comes in two forms one slightly more palatable than the other Or is that a different thing? I'm not quite sure Right, okay. We'll come back to that. But anyways, this version is quite palatable. Okay Remedies for brain fog and a lack of energy during perimenopause and menopause maybe it's a similar answer Yeah, similar answer really like we have we you know, we have combinations of herbs are very very good to help a menopause One of the things with menopause the problem is like is that you know often It's due to the body not adapting to the change just natural change that occurs at menopause Or perimenopausal So it's have to help you have to help the adrenal glands help the body to actually deal with the change Once it once the body deals with the change, then it's the natural progress in their symptoms Go away. It's given the system a kick up the backside almost. Well, it's just helping it. Yeah, it's helping it because you know Normally today like, you know, it's a very stressful society We live in really basically and you know all demands on people and we get a bit run down And then you know all of a sudden this big change happened the body the hormones change and the body just can't deal with So you know using things that will actually help the body to To adapt to that change because what's needed, you know Um, my daughter suffers from pseudo seizures. She sometimes feels it's coming on Is there anything you would advise to help her control these feelings to avoid the seizure happening? Yeah, I agree. I mean it sounds like I mean there is there is a nice tonics Uh What we call them nerve ions things like, you know time and you know these herbs that actually rosemary and herbs like these actually Very good for tonifying the nervous system. So it sounds like, you know, if her nervous system was strengthened So we have a big tonics that actually will help that, you know And it's not hard to really understand it because we know things like I don't know drinking alcohol can affect the nervous system in a negative way So we can only presume then there is going to be a counterbalance to that. That's right Although, you know, I'm not saying this is a hangover cure. Don't get me wrong But do you know what I mean? It helps us sort of understand how What we take in can affect How we feel oh very much. I mean when you think of herb medicine like it basically like, you know people have to Go over thousands of years. Which herbs affect different parts of the body, you know Okay, and they do say it's over thousands of years Someone's offers from nausea. Is there anything natural that can be taken to? Ginger is a great help, you know How do you take it? Well, you know, you can you can just Some people for people are having morning sickness and things people find that sometimes ginger biscuits You know, they have oat biscuits with ginger in them. They're they're very nice to take and they just find that's that Or you can take the ginger itself or they make a ginger tea You can even get capsules of ginger How important is it the quality of what we take in like say for instance honey? Because we talk about the benefits of honey, right? But if you go in and get a jar of honey off a shelf that's heavily processed and imported from god knows where You might not feel the benefits of going to your neighbour who has bees and consuming their honey I presume it's the same with when you talk about ginger and you talked about cranberry, isn't it? It's how we consume it Presumably preferably in its most purest form. Oh, absolutely most Organic is best of all like, you know, and you know local stuff is so much better often, you know Like if you can get your local honey, you can guarantee that, you know, the beekeepers they do it out of love It's not much so which are the commercial enterprise and you get that local honey head or honey, whatever these are fantastic Um, I'm taking HRT. Would you recommend supplements? And if so, what's best? Well, you know HRT like if you take like it depends how would a HRT for HRT Can I just actually move back slightly David just to make sure everyone can hear it's just the the microphone is just a little bit Equally go ahead. Yeah, no, you're perfect there One of the things with HRT is like normally people take HRT for a Short period of time and then they'll stop it So if they can take I think multivitamins and all things with HRT and that's perfectly okay But if you can if you can think of things that will help as I was saying before like Help the body deal with the change that's happened then when they come off the HRT They don't have any symptoms, you know They go on to norm So things that will help the immune systems help the adrenal glands are very helpful in this case Um, I'm having terrible trouble with facial nerve pain David, which in turn gives me a terrible toothache Can you please uh advise is there anything You could suggest for this. Well, there's two things that we think of like you can get St. John's wort oil you can't take You know get jade John's wort in the liquid form now to take internally But you can get the oil and you can rub that on the face. That's very good for nerve pain How does that work? Is there a numbing effect to it? It's it was used and believe in the past really a lot of these her we don't really know exactly how they work I mean, it was used was famous St. John's wort was for crushed hands in the past back in back in the day type thing So you'd imagine a lot of a lot of nerve damage, you know with a current There wasn't a way you could operate anything in those days. So somehow it seems it kind of works It eases the nerve pain, but I know it's just acupuncture too. You know acupuncture very good for this type of pain Um, what would you recommend for stomach acid? And imagine what they're currently engaging in, you know, your liquids and your Powdery tablets, but is there anything more natural? Well, you know the thing is with stomach acid a lot of it can be do with diet So cutting out caffeine with big coffee And things like high sugar content foods They're very important, you know to cut down on the acid I also found slowing down eating and not reclining soon after eating was of great help Very helpful too. And because if there's a little bit of overweight in the in the abdomen area That's that's coming off a factor too So having the pillars a little bit higher in the bed that I can ease that a bit too, you know So they can be very helpful Uh, can you talk a little about probe by our next in relation to oral health gum disease bad breath and so on? Well, you know the bad breath there's many factors why people have your Sage is a wonderful herb to actually gargle with for for bad breath It also helps the whole digestive system. So gargling and swallowing sage is very very good So you can get normally you can get sage herb a loose and just make a tea with it Very good. And there is probiotics that will as I say if you go to the health which are becoming you You'll find probiotics that are designed for each particular area So you can get probiotics designed for this area too. All right. I'm not sure if this is a alternative or complimentary remedy question or not, but Um, my ankle is swelling on my left foot. I'm of slim build, but I have high cholesterol and they're on statins as well Yeah on on the on the left foot Yeah, I I've been trying to go see your GP To be honest with you if you see swelling or demon like that, you know, unless there's an injury there that would Say well that why they're happening, but you know demon is always especially in the ankle Always a little bit have to be a little bit careful. Yeah, I suspected that might be your answer, David So joints Glucosamine and clondroitin were advised you can help me out in that one. Uh, I presume they're actual medicines. Is there any alternative? No, no, no actually they're Complementary stroke alternative right any other alternative natural product available. Well, you know depends on the on the job Turmeric is is absolutely fantastic. It's an anti-inflammatory and turmeric.  It actually reduces the information in the body and often with the joint pain It's inflammation that it can be the problem. Okay. I only have time for a couple more, David. Um Red yeast rice Again, this is it taking instead of statins for high cholesterol. I'm not sure if that's a road you would go down But uh, do you have a view on that and yeah, whatever you believe there is actually very good remedies to reduce Cholesterol, but you know, we're having to go on statins, you know Because there is mixed views on statins Especially if you read the Daily Mail because they have a different view on it every day But anyway, that's in Britain not as much here. But uh, so go ahead natural You know, there is natural remedies. There there is plant statins which are you can get in and that's one particular form That's very very effective for reducing cholesterol. So I would always suggest to people if they have high cholesterol Try the natural remedies first, you know, try them for a period of time Go back to your doctor get a test if it's down. That's great. It isn't you know, you can always go on statins and You know first would you would use those pad statins and then you would just red wine yeast That's another way of actually trying to control it. And if after you try those particular remedies and They be quite honest today. They often do work They keep people from having to go on statins, but if you need statins, you need statins But I think it's what we're trying the alternatives for all right David Foley owner of the natural way letter Kenny.

As you say, the Moundary Hotel is now recognised as a four-star hotel by Falkshire Ireland. The 139 bedroom hotel has been run by the McAnuff family since the 70s and employs around 150 people. And this re-classification follows a multi-million-year renovation of the well-known establishment. So, well done and good luck to them. Yes, indeed. Donagolle to you.

This festival will bring together inspiring artists and creators within the film and media genres from regions, including Brittany, Cornwall, Ireland, Isle of Man, Scotland and Wales. So, good boost for the west of the county. And nice to have hosting such a very prestigious event. Good setting too. Yeah. Lovely hotel there. And what a gym they have. You were up with that, weren't you? I will stop. I think you did one of your thoughts for that, didn't you? Yeah. I mean, it's really, it's like state-of-the-art. What you would expect to see in a, you know, brand new gym in the heart of London. Not that that's where we set the bar from, don't get me wrong. They have the same gear in there. It really is quite remarkable. Out of all around, it's that's why. It's a massive boost that there is, well, Greg, just to think of that, I think that's a four star doing there as well. Yeah, big catchment. So, that's why I suppose they do well. Irish grown wool cancel established. Now, yes, the first Irish grown wool council was selected at a stakeholders meeting, was took place recently at Athlone Springs Hotel. So, the Irish grown wool council brings together stakeholders from both sides of the border with the aim of improving the Irish wool sector. So, the establishment of this organisation, Greg, is being described as a new, as a major milestone for the Irish wool industry and for the creation of a strong Irish grown wool brand. So, obviously, they're looking to get themselves organised and together and be a better force, which is good news for that sector. I was hoping to keep it quiet, but my big news is out. I've cracked open the piggy banks. Yes, we're seeing larger and a bit max there one morning, all right. Here, what's going on? Yeah, I need to take a site, and Lerner Kinney has been sold for €4 million. The land along Hyrule is reported to have been bought by someone from the county. Great. Planning budget was granted back in 2014 for development, comprising six retail units, 190 apartments, 17 duplex units and seven, 18 townhouses, but that has since expired. And in the current county development plant, the site is owned as Establishment Development Stroke Mixed Usage. So, the sale of this prime site was handled by local estate agent, D. N. G. Boyce-Geller, and it will be interesting to see what happens next. It really will be, because on both levels, if they sort of went along the lines of what was previously awarded plan permission for, any extra retail is always really quite interesting, but obviously, there's quite a significant housing need that might be able to be met there here, and so we'll see how things progress. I'm almost down from the side of the fire station and goes down, and it backs on to the back of the old field site. Right, so it's on the right hand side? Yeah, if you go down from here, and you're going to pass the asphalt down the town, it's on the left. So, after you pass the four houses there on the left hand side, there's a gap. There's a house across the road there from Max Deli, it's directly across there, and on down to the very bottom. So, it's about two-thirds down Oliver Plunkett Road. Actually, you probably wouldn't even know it's there if you're just a road user, okay? That's really quite significant, okay. Excellent stuff. So, that was a run-through some of the top business stories from across the region. So, let's get on to the podcast, and you are speaking to Clive Alcorn. I had a couple of chats with Clive, because we were down at Tropical World, and he's got a really interesting approach, and I think this is going to be a really interesting podcast, Kieran. Yeah, as you say, I'm going to be joined this week by Clive of Alcorn's Guernsey and also as the owner of Tropical World in the Rikini. Clive's parents, late parents, Tommy and Martha, set up a flower shop at Loughn again in the 80s, and Clive began working full-time in the business when he was still a teenager. When his father retired, Clive formed Alcorn's Limited along with his brother John, such a caring who also run Alcorn's Flowers. And it was always Clive's ambition to establish his own zoo, and in 2011 he opened Tropical World, which attracts 40,000 visitors annually. Here, Clive talks about the positive influence his late parents had on himself and on his siblings. Well, my father and mother were genuine people. My mother was a person, if anybody actually remembers her, would say, my mother never made money because she actually gave away more plants than she sold. And that was her nature. She loved people, and she loved, and as I say, the saddest thing is that I would say today is that she never, ever got to see the good of Alcorn's. My father seen, as I say, it developed through the years, see us develop into the business and the business go forward. And was a great man for actually backing, as I say, what, what the future or what. And I remember going to the trade shows and where they went and maybe it looked at a piece of machinery. And I remember going to this, going to a show and killed air one time and looking at this better machinery and myself and myself were standing looking at it and I says, and the lutch man says to me, would you be interested, I say, maybe in the future. And of course, he took my telephone number and he hung me every year for three years. And eventually I says, look to me, what do you think? He says, get the machine here to speed things up. And that was this. And it was always the vision of how we can make it better, how we can, as I say, increase production. But at the same time, it has to be done in a sustainable nature. And it has to be viable. Yeah. And balancing that's the difficulty, but one, a balance they're striking at there and I get a sense here, and that, you know, obviously, a hugely successful business there outside Lattrack County. But this is also about Clive, him as an individual, his philosophy, his influences. Yes, very much so. He talked there on honestly parents and the positive influence that it has had on himself. And I suppose he still takes great inspiration from the example that they set. How to make things better is probably sums up Clive and his approach to his business. We talked about a lot of things and a lot of detail. He's a huge passion for nature. He's a huge passion for educating and for hoping that young people will be aware of what's around them and the most importance of knowing what is happening around them. Outside of his work he has a huge passion, Formula One and Bonnegie. So we covered a lot of topics and that was a very, very interesting conversation. Yeah, okay. Now, you can hear that in its entirety on our website right now, highlandradio.com. We're on Spotify, iTunes as well. It's ripped to it. So you can listen to it, stream it or download it, okay? So whatever way you want to do it.  Yeah, great. Just after the six o'clock news. And if anyone wishes to get in contact with them, how do they do so? Just send me an email please, businessmattersathighlandradio.com. And I don't want to repeat myself, but there's a big archive there now of really, really interesting interviews, which are of interest to people outside of business. And I think those within business too, Kieran, because over the year, we can almost actually over the years now, at this stage, can't we, Kieran? You know, there's an awful lot of testimonies from people as to how they made it, the mistakes they made. And sometimes everyone has to make their mistakes for themselves. But there's a lot in there, isn't there, for all different suggestions. When you get to talk to somebody that for the show, when they may have listened back to another show, they're able to say, look, I heard him saying or heard her saying or I thought that was interesting. So business people do tune into it as well. And I suppose they're looking and listening to see if they can pick up on anything or if they can find a wee bit more about somebody that they know or don't know. Okay. Just to remind you once again, if you want to get in contact with Kieran, the email address is businessmattersathighlandradio.com, simple as that, isn't it? All right. Kieran, thanks so much. Good morning, Greg. We really do appreciate it. Thank you.  Let me see. I think I have time to... No, I don't have time for any comments. So I'll carry these dozens of comments that we have left over into tomorrow. That's Thursday. So we're going to thank you for listening to the show today. It's been great having you on board. Thanks to Neve, who worked on the social media and assisted Caroline, who researches and produces the show most days. John Bresen's coming up around the Northwest after the news at 12. But for me, Greg Hughes and the team, have a lovely day.


Hello people of the internet! My name is Johnny and welcome back yet again to some more Five Nights at Furetti's news. As always, I'm pretty late to things. We have a lot of FNAFAR news to cover in today's video ranging from the Fazbear Fright books to merchandise to FNAFAR. And even then I still have a lot more to talk about in separate videos about the fanverse, more updates on security breach. You know I still gotta talk about that blog post, I still have to look at the store page. How about we take it one video at a time? So like I just mentioned in today's video we got a whole lot of book news, a lot of news about FNAFAR, some merchandise. So let's not waste any more time, hit the like button, subscribe, all that juicy stuff you already know what I'm gonna say. Oh also for channel members which selflessly plugging if you want to become a channel member it's only like less than a dollar. Members get their names featured at the end of videos now so I appreciate you guys helping me out. But kicking it off right with some Fazbear Frights news. The 11th book in the book series Prankster has officially released. It came out a couple days ago, you should be able to get it in all the stores now. Quickly catching up on a bit of news about it, the three chapters in the book are Prankster, Kids at Play, and Fine Player 2. And here are the most common words and phrases found in the book. Once again a whole lot of names like Mary Jo, Joel Hope, Parker, notably no Andrew right? But yeah the book's out right now, I would have it displayed right there but I unfortunately have not had time to go get it yet but hopefully soon you can find it right there. Moving on now to the 12th book and the final book in the official Fazbear Frights book line up, Felix the Shark. We got a whole bunch of info on this book because this one's different. Right because if you remember correctly the 12th book Felix the Shark is a whole bunch of scrapped stories and it's gonna be exclusive to a box set. At least we thought it was going to be, but. Back in October we got the news that it will release digitally on so far January 4th 2022 so if you don't want to buy the entire series again you can read it online. It also has a synopsis of the book, I'll go ahead and read that right now. A Dark Bridge to the Past. Dirk sets out on a long shot quest to recapture a cherished childhood memory from a unique animatronic pizzeria. Mandy finds something lurking in the files of her favorite horror game and opens herself up to a hunt. In light of her son's fascination with Freddy Fazbear's pizza, Sylvia buys her son a unique birthday present. A Freddy Fazbear mask that's the genuine article in more ways than one. So that is a quick synopsis of all the three stories in the 12th book, Felix the Shark. We also got an image from Scholastic that does confirm technically Felix the Shark is a separate book. Scholastic also announced that a e-book will be available for audio listeners. And finally to wrap it all up here is a proper look at the front cover for book number 12, Felix the Shark. And now let's talk about the Fazbear Frights graphic novels. It appears the first volume of the Fazbear Frights graphic novels has been delayed to August of 2022. We also finally got a look at the cover for the book and here's the placeholder. Now but seriously, this is the official cover for volume one of the Fazbear Frights graphic novel collection. And as you can see, instead of featuring into the Pidspring Bonnie, it actually features the plush trap chaser from the Out of Stock story from book number two, which again for some reason isn't the first volume of the graphic novels. I still don't know why. And speaking of covers, we also got the How to Draw FNAF book cover. Now interestingly enough, you may recognize some of these illustrations because they were in the coloring book of FNAF. So it looks like they're just kind of reusing drawings, which I guess is fine. I don't care. Now moving on, let's talk about what is happening in the world of Illumix and FNAF AR. On Daco's charity stream, we got three brand new teasers for FNAF AR's gameplay update. The first one is of a purple key that has Ferdy's face on it. The second one appears to be some sort of house with a chair and a bookshelf. It also looks like there could be something outside the window, but I don't know what it could be. And the third and final teaser is of a locked door. I don't even know what these could be hinting at. A lot of people joked that they could be loot boxes, which knowing Illumix, yeah, I can see. I really have no clue what this could be. I feel like this doesn't really give us any solid hints, but you know, let me know what you guys think in the comments down below. And we also got an official update from FNAF AR themselves saying, hey all, we know you've been super patient as we've been walking towards our big update, which will launch in November. What about more details on that? Well, there are already some teasers that have made their way out there, talking about the Daco teasers, with more to come, much, much more. And how about we also let you in on a secret? We hear that there's another fun special delivery that will be making it's way to FNAF AR. Ready? This is for your ears only. Come December, a new animatronic character will be joining the Frightening Fun. They also talked about a photo booth, but do people care about those anymore? So yeah, a quick update. Frankly, it's stuff we already knew about. Like, hey, this update's still coming out this year, and hey, you're still only getting one new character this year. You already knew that, but we're just gonna say it again and leave. All right, buh-bye. To be fair, Illumix has been walking a lot with Disney recently, if you've seen their tweets. I'll give it to them. The technology that they use looks pretty spectacular. I'm just a little worried that the Disney collaboration kind of took away development from FNAF AR because it has been very quiet. So I hope that the new AR engine that they made with Disney, they can use in FNAF AR because that would be incredible. But yeah, I'm so definitely worried about the future of this game. Let's move on. Quickly touching upon some more generic merchandise news. Apparently the previously found FNAF Pocket Pop advent calendar that was discovered in July has just been canceled. And as you can see from Kane's tweet, it looks like the pint-sized hero's advent calendar we got instead is kind of the replacement for that. A little upsetting, but it would be weird to have two advent calendars, you know? And now going back to the FNAF U2s. If you don't know, we're getting U2s figures based off of the core FNAF collection, aka basically just FNAF 1. Security Breach and also Fazbear Fanverse. And recently, in an AMA on Reddit, they revealed quite a lot about the current status of the U2s. Number one, the figures are currently in the prototyping phase. Number two, there are going to be four figures in the core FNAF wave and five figures in the Security Breach wave. Number three, the current planned release date is early 2022. Number four, the bonus item in the Security Breach wave is a figure. I don't know if the five figures include the bonus figure, so the original one has four. I don't know. It could have five and the bonus one is six. It could be four. The bonus one is five. But I'm assuming the baseline collection for Security Breach is five and then we get a sixth bonus one. And finally, the Security Breach, FNAF, and Fanverse collections will be released separately. Meaning they're not going to drop all like 15 figures all at the same time. They're going to be spaced out. And now finally, let's talk about brand new FNAF Security Breach merchandise. Because once again, God dang it bro, MatPat, the Game Theorists and Creator Inc are back at it again with another FNAF collection. And this time it's entirely based around Security Breach. And the release date for all of this is tomorrow, November 6th. And while I don't have all of the products that are going to be available, a few products have leaked already. Before we hop into a look at the actual products, here are all of the search results. It looks like this is going to be a pretty big launch. Because you can see just how many items there are. And like I mentioned, a few products have already leaked online. First up, here's a look at Freddy, Monty and Roxanne's sleeved shirts. There is going to be one for Chica, it's just not on this image. And as you can see, it features the animatronics and their respective rooms in the Pizza Plex. So you have Freddy Fazbear's Phaser Blast Arena, but Gummary the Gator's Gator Golf Course, and Roxanne the Wolf's Racing Club. Then here's a look at some patches for, again, Freddy, Chica, Monty and Roxanne. Looks like Freddy says Rockstar, Chica says Let's Party, Monty says Rar, and Roxanne says Skills. Here's a look at some of the Glamrock socks, which will feature the Glamrock animatronics. And finally, so far here is a look at a lanyard for Glamrock Freddy. There's also a $95 jacket that's been found on the store. Unfortunately, no images just yet. And if you want to know some prices, the socks go for about $12, the lanyard about $15, and the shirts are going to be about $30. So some very interesting news for today. Also some very interesting news to look forward to in the future, coming very soon. I'm going to do a lot of recording over the weekend, so expect a lot of FNAF news video next week. Tell me what do you think about everything going on with the security breach merchandise? What do you think is going to happen in the new FNAF AR gameplay update? How do you feel about Fazbear Fritz coming to an end this year? Thanks for watching, and I'll see you all on the flip side. Goodbye.

So I'll be honest, I really couldn't care less about the Chick-fil-A story. When I first found out about Chick-fil-A's donations to anti-gay organizations I had never heard of it because I think it's a restaurant chain That's more popular in the South and I'm in the Pacific Northwest. So I've never had Chick-fil-A I don't have one near me. So I probably will never have Chick-fil-A and quite frankly, I don't care However, I'm not going to miss this opportunity to point out the irony of the situation because there's a lot of people who are very outraged about something that Chick-fil-A did and said people want to cancel Chick-fil-A and I'm talking about of course conservatives who oftentimes scream the loudest about cancel culture, but now they're threatening to cancel Chick-fil-A because they actually did something good So they decided to stop donating to anti-gay organizations Now the way that they did this is a little bit interesting to me because they opened up a restaurant in the UK And they got a lot of backlash from LGBTQ activists who call for boycotts and whatnot because I mean Oftentimes Being anti-gay is just not good for business. That's capitalism, right?  I'm sure that my friends on the right will respect the free market with that being said though They realized that you know being anti-gay in 2019 isn't necessarily the best business decision And they learned about that the hard way so they announced that they will no longer be donating to organizations that are explicitly anti-gay and in response predictably conservatives reacted by melting down and Threatening to cancel them. So Ben Shapiro tweeted Chick-fil-A has survived and thrived because they served everyone and Refused to cater to the cancel culture now. They've caved at the behest of the censorious left This is a terrible move and just the latest indicator that the center cannot hold a country in which we only eat at Restaurants where we agree with the owners politics when the owners politics does not affect anything happening inside the restaurant Is a country that cannot survive as a unified entity?  I mean, do you ever just take a break from being offended by everything then? I mean come on He is the quintessential example of a right-wing SJW who is just authoritarian who wants everyone to do what he wants But we'll say that that's what the left ones But I mean he's pissed off because they're choosing a company is choosing to not donate to an anti-gay organization But he also says that that was basically holding the center, which the center is pro-gay now, right? We've moved on this issue so much and I think that most people who are reasonable acknowledge that yes Gay people like everyone else should have equal rights There's still a lot of people like Ben Shapiro who believe that gay people are icky and inferior But with that being said that's not the average American I think that most Americans have progressed in a substantial way on this issue We're not perfect yet, right? We have a lot of work to go But you know the fact that public pressure works that's capitalism, right? If people don't want to buy your product then that's capitalism That's the free market sorting itself out and you know Chick-fil-A is learning the hard way that times have changed But the fact that Ben Shapiro melted down here. I mean it just shows the dude is an insufferable drama queen But I also can't forget about my friend Dave Rubin who is a literally Canceling Chick-fil-A because they gave into cancel culture. He tweeted the decision makes absolutely no sense Chick-fil-A was actually cool because it stood up to the progressive mind virus, which is cancel culture I'm not going back to that sad dry pathetic Burger King chicken sandwich. No way. No, how back to the home-cooked frying pan in other words Dave Rubin a Gay man Tomass is angry that they're not going to be donating to anti-gay organizations and they succumbed to cancel culture So to punish them he's going To cancel them high-level important ideas This really is the stupidest timeline imaginable and like if Dave Rubin Continues on this trajectory like next week. He's going to come out against gay marriage and like by next year He'll renounce his homosexuality and like marry a woman or something like that like that's the trajectory that he's on I mean you can only sell out so much to where you start really looking ridiculous and he's past that point like this is this is comical like they're donating to people Organizations that are against people like him.  This is the direction you want to go You've garnered the unconditional support of millions not in spite of but because of your stances Which is the sole reason you're successful? idiocy By oh, so you're canceling them Wow, you know what?   So that would increase their business I mean if they have delicious delicious chicken sandwiches as good as people say they are then wouldn't you want them to do better and stay in business and expand I Mean, I don't know what to say about this right wingers are clowns.  They've stopped donating to anti-gay organizations It's not like they are donating to pro abortion organizations or like pro Left-leaning causes or whatever. They're just saying we're not going to donate to organizations that are harmful to one particular community But yet that little you know symbolic move is still too much for right wingers who are that fragile Whatever snowflakes


Funding for Painting Journeys is provided by Veritas. Financial Knowledge is Power. Be Empowered. God's beauty is all around us and my goal as an artist is to capture and interpret that beauty on canvas and to take you, the viewer, along with me on this painting journey. Hello and welcome to Painting Journeys. My name is Kitty Lynn Klisch and we're here today. We're really glad you joined us and we're going to be painting a Poinsettia. But before we go into that, I'd like to talk a little bit about our last episode on Painting Journeys. This beautiful cardinal and if you had the chance to watch the show of which I hope you did, I told you about the Christmas story that related to this cardinal. Well, here he is and the painting is completed now and framed. As you can see, I've added a little detail to the branches and added a little more snow and just reshaped him just a little bit because I felt he was a little oversized when I ended the last segment. So here he is and I believe that the Christmas cardinal, I'm going to make that my official 2015 Christmas painting. I've been doing Christmas paintings every year since 1993. I was thinking about that today. That's a long time. Yeah, and I love them. I enjoy doing them so much and like I said, I'm really glad you're with us today. I am going to just do a Poinsettia study today. I went and I, at our local floor shop, I purchased this beautiful Poinsettia yesterday and I've never seen one with petals quite like this where they're sort of modeled lighter in the center and then darker around the edges and then this lovely red and green petal here is really beautiful. So I don't want to take too much time here. I'm going to get right into this because I'm going to challenge myself today to try to start and finish this painting in the time that we have. So without further ado, I best get busy. Now I'm not going to do the whole vase and flowers. I'm just going to pick out a little bit of what I want from it. I'm going to be selective and I am going to have this dark leaf coming right in here. So right now what I'm going to do is I'm just going to kind of outline what I see in the colors that I see it in. Over here, here, okay, over here. I love these leaves. They're so dramatic the way they're shaped. And the flower is so interesting because it just seems to, you know, one day it will be all green and then the brackets start turning red and it's just really beautiful. Yesterday when I was at the florist shop, I found out that they have started painting flowers. They have a flower paint that they can actually paint flowers with. And so I saw Poinsettias yesterday that were turquoise blue and purple, really dark purple. And yellow, there was one yellow, kind of an orangey one that looked like it was for fall or something. So what they're doing nowadays, I guess, I had no idea about this. What they're doing nowadays is they're actually, see how I'm looking at my subject and I'm judging how far up do I want to go before I put another leaf.  That's very important when you're painting. You want to try to get the distances in between, you know, as much as you can. There's always room for a little air, of course. Anyway, I had no idea that they actually have Poinsettias that have all these odd shapes nowadays, or odd colors rather, excuse me. I wasn't really too impressed with them. They looked a little too artificial to me. I think right here we're going to have this one. And it's going to be outlined in green and it's turning. It's in the process of turning. So it's going to be outlined in green and then it's going to have red in the center and it's a pretty good size leaf or bracket, whatever you want to call it. You know, I'm not too good on the names of things. I never have been. It just doesn't seem to matter to me what it is. Just let me paint it. This one's got another shape that goes this way and then it's coming back like this. And we'll have to probably go in and alter those a little bit. Now I'm going to take my another brush and I'm going to start with outlining some of the red Poinsettias that I see here. Now there's, I want the edges to be a little bit on the darker side. So right over in here on top of this is a leaf or a petal. And it's coming right here and going like this. And then it's coming up here. Now it's going to be, it's going to be quite a bit darker. We have another big petal that is here and it's coming around. On top of that we have another petal coming. And so you see the red is going to be on top of the green a little bit. And then there's a few that are going underneath this because the flower, this is the center of the flower right here. And so we have some petals that are going underneath this green one that's going to be on top. We have a little bit of a side view coming here. That is kind of pretty that we'll bring up here. And let me see here, right under here we have a petal and that's a nice big one. And then on top of that is a smaller one that is going like this. And then here on the very top, this is our center of the Poinsettia. And right in here is where the center, the top center is going to be. So now these petals that I'm putting in now are going to need to be foreshortened a bit. So that means that we don't see as much of them. And it has another big one coming out from here. We have a couple that are now they're coming up here. This is pretty much just a mass of petals over in here. And I'm not going to give that, I don't want to give that too much detail. This right here is going to be my focal area. And I want that to really pop out at us. We'll have a little bit of an opening and then we'll have some petals that are going like so. Going off. Here's a nice big one coming up here. And he actually has, we're seeing a side view of him. So this is what we're seeing. Let's see here. And we have that green one there. And right underneath that green one is one that is just turning. And then I'll probably fill a lot of this in with paint. And usually I start the painting by going to the background first.  I start with a background first, but today I don't think so. Today I think I'm just going to concentrate on the poinsettias and trying to get those the way I want them to look for you. And poinsettias and the leaves. I think I'll just leave the background go. If we don't get to it, nothing to it. We'll just do it some other time. I've already done my official Christmas painting for this year with my cardinal, the Christmas cardinal. So I don't really have to worry about this. This is just more of a fun type of day today where we're just kind of messing around. Okay, once again this is Kitty Lynn Klisch and you're watching Painting Journeys. And I'm hoping that you're enjoying what I'm doing. All right, I think we need a little green up here. I'm going to balance it a little bit.  Sometimes that gets me in trouble, sometimes not. It all depends. And I have my usual palette that I usually use and I'm not going to take the time to show that to you because I think you already probably have a good idea if you've seen this show before. Alrighty, let's see here. Do I want this to go off? This is going off up here. I think I do. I think I want to ground this by putting another dark green pedal coming right down there. Okay, so now it's grounded at the top, grounded at the bottom. We'll probably have to take it out with a nice long leaf that is behind this one here. And we're just going to see just a part of it. Take that there. Okay now, and then I'm kind of liking that. It's grounded here, here, here, and then it kind of flows over here. Okay, and then we may add a little bit to it. So now let's get to it. Let's start painting. Now we've got it on the canvas and we're going to start painting. I'm going to do the green first. And that green is a very dark, almost blue green. So I'm thinking I'm going to take my sap green, put just a little bit of the ultramarine blue in there to darken it up. I want this to be quite dark and then I'll come across the top of it and add a little bit of light where I want it and a little tinge of red here and there to show. That's not a good brush here. This is better. Okay, so now this one is in the light. I'm not going to make it so dark, but this one here, starting over here, he is in the dark. So we're just going to fire him in, maybe even a little darker where he goes underneath here because he's in the shadow. This guy down here is in the shadow too. Kind of building, kind of coming from the underneath outward. There we go. Can you hear my brush scratching? I love that sound. It's like somebody scratching my back. I love it. I love to have my back scratched too. There we go. Now this one is underneath this one. So that's going to be a little darker there. I'm going to have just a little space there. This is underneath this. So that's going to be a little darker. And let's see. This is under here, under the flowers. So where it's coming out because the flower is going to create a shadow. So where it's coming out, it's going to be a little darker. This is going to be a little darker up in here. I'm just kind of dancing around here, finding my way. Okay, now then, this one is on top of this one, so that should be dark too. This little guy right in here. Now we're going to mix up a lighter green and we're going to come back over. And we'll have the flowers. I see that as being a rather cool red. And so I'm going to, the leaves are quite gray. So I'm going to, I think, warm the leaves up a little bit with a warmer grade green and have it be a little on the warmer side because I see the flowers as being very cool. All flower, all paintings, objects, when you paint them, they have a color temperature. Some, some objects are very warm looking and so you'll want to give them a cool shadow or a cool compliment. Okay, now I'm going to come in here and I'm just going to come and lighten that up just a bit and I have a nice grayed green. And how did I gray my green? I added just a tiny little bit of red. The color is compliment and that grays it.  This guy up here, he can be quite light and very warm because he is in the, in the light, in the bright light. So we're just going to fix him up there. There he is. This one is quite light. This one is right here. Maybe we'll make him a little darker here on the tip so that it looks like it's turning just a bit. I'm really glad you're with me today.  I don't think there is anything I'd rather do than paint. Maybe eat.  Alrighty, here we go. Too much information, kitty. There we go. So he's a little darker on the bottom side there. This has got to come out a little bit and then he's going to be just a little darker here in the middle so he kind of looks like he's just a wee bit folded. And then on the outside, I think I'm going to put just a tad of blue in there to kind of make him pop a little bit here. I like that. Okay, that makes him look like he's turning and we'll do the same thing down here with this little guy. Make him come out of the shadow here. You notice how a little bit of the red is mixing in? That's perfectly all right because the leaves do have, some of them do have red in them. Now there's another one there. He's on top. Now remember, if I seem like I'm hurrying, it's because I'm attempting to do something that I'm not able to do very often on the show and that is complete a painting in an hour. I have less than an hour to complete this painting and I want to try really hard to do that. So if I'm not talking some of the time or if I seem lost in thought or whatever, you have to forgive me because I'm concentrating very, very hard on what I'm doing here. I'm trying to accomplish a goal that I have set for myself today. And then if I can do it, if I get it done, then we can all celebrate. Doesn't that sound like fun? This one's on top, so we'll make it just a little bit lighter. You see how important it is to have the different colors in the leaves because without the different colors, values and temperatures in them, they wouldn't show up as they are now. I think what we're going to do here on this one here, make him shop a little better is just add some red down the center of him. There we go. How do you like that, buddy? That fixes you up. All right. I'm still working on those leaves. Oh, I want to get to the flowers. To hack with these leaves. I want the flowers there, the beautiful things. This is just kind of a scumbling that I do. I found quite effective instead of laying paint on and going over it and over it and over it. I find for me it works best if I just kind of scribble with my paintbrush. Just kind of scribble it in and add a little detail here, a little detail there, and there we go. That's got to be dark there because that's underneath that flower. I can't forget my original mission here. Okay. And then we want that edge to be quite light on the other side so that it pops forward. So we'll just come in here with some nice light, pull that in, and then we'll just feel like, ooh, look at me. I'm pretty. Yeah. We have another leaf here. It's going to be dark up in there and dark here. All righty. Dark in there. And it's going behind this flower right here. So let's see. We'll make that one side of him a little bit lighter like that's catching the light right in here. And then we'll darken this right here where it's behind. Okay. That tells me it needs to have a little more dark in here. I think it needs to go up underneath there a little bit more. Yeah. There we go. Do we see any more leaves? Let me see here. Not right now. I think I'm going to start with my flowers, flower brackets. Okay. Did I bring my favorite brush? Let me see. All right. Well, this is a good one to start with. Okay. There again, the petals underneath are quite dark. So this right in here is going to be quite dark because it's in shadow. Let me see. Petal. Oh, this is the petal right here. Can't read my own writing here. That's going to be dark right there. This has got to be dark up here. Now this little guy here, that's the underside of him. So that's going to be quite dark. Let's see. This is going to be dark in here. That's going to be dark. I keep saying that over and over again. I'm sorry. I just keep repeating myself here. But that's because I'm thinking out loud. And I just got the sign from the cameraman that I only have 30 minutes. Can you believe it? We're already halfway into the show. And I don't think I have my canvas half covered. So I had better kick it into gear right now. Right now. I think it's going to come together quite nicely. Just bear with me. We're going to... This is dark here. Because that's a turning of a petal. And this is dark up here. Now I'm going to put a little bit of light on the petals so that you can see what's going to happen. Okay. I made my big one that I wanted to have red and green. I made him all green. No wonder he doesn't look right to me. Okay. So that's not a problem. We'll just wipe down some of these and leave space for green. For the green ribs or whatever you call them. Someday I'm going to get an email and somebody is going to say, I watched all your shows and I know all the names of the things that you don't know. And so here they are. So please stop calling things things and say the proper name of them. And I will say thank you very much.  But it doesn't mean diddly squat to me because I'm not painting objects. I'm painting shapes and colors and values and temperatures and all that other good stuff. Okay. That's a little pinker pink. Let's see. We should be going a little cooler with that. Add a little blue in that. Yeah, that's better. If we have time, we'll come back over this guy a little bit better. Well, we have to have time because painting is going to be finished. I want to sign it right here on camera in front of you because I pledge once I've signed something I don't go back and mess with it. If it's got my signature on it that means I'm done with it. So we don't want this to be a mess. We want it to be a masterpiece. So we've got to get busy here. Make sure that that looks right. Now we'll take our little green pen or brush rather and go back in there and we'll have, oops, we'll have a little green on the end right there and we'll just kind of, there he is. It's good enough for now. Pick up this brush. That was a pretty awkward move but I'm sure hope you were looking away right then. All right. We need to make this a little bit lighter and a little bit brighter. I wore my scarf today. My scarf was a gift from a dear friend who went to Paris, France before they had the terrorist attack over there and she brought me back this scarf and I'm so proud of it. I just love it. And so I'm wearing it today. Not as a statement just because I love it. I don't make statements. Let's see here. Okay. Now then.  I'm in with a pink and some orange. Now inside those petals is a little bit of a light sort of a pinkish color that's really pretty and I'm just going to put just a touch of it in here to kind of show up. Just a little hint of that color. All right. And let's see. This one here. Okay. He is coming up here and then he's coming down and take a little bit of the dark and we'll take some of the light and put it inside of him. There he is. This one is coming on top so it's going to be a little bit lighter. We need a little deeper red around the edges. And I need to lighten up that tip a little bit so that that shows up for us there. Maybe come in with a little bit of the darker right behind here. There we go. Now then we have a nice light one that's in the light. It is right here and we're going to put it up on top of this one and bring it over and that's the we put the dark underneath there so that it goes down beneath the other petal that's going to be right there. We have the dark here. This reinforces dark a little bit and we'll put this one here. We're going to make quite light I think in the center here. There we go. That's a lovely color isn't it? I like that. And then come back over here and this one is coming up. Now that problem is that or something is behind. It's got to be dark in order for it to show that it's going behind what is on top of it. So you either have to go quite a bit darker or you have to go quite a bit lighter either way because it has to be light against dark and dark against light. Okay. All right now this, yeah I like what this guy's doing kind of turning away he says let me out of here and we'll have a nice dark little darker red coming down and then maybe we'll take some of the light and put out here on the chip of him. There we go. There that's kind of pretty. All righty and we've got this one here. Okay. Here's another kind of a pink one coming right here and in the back here we're going to have some dark that's a flower that is behind this one and this part of it is behind this one too. Let's see this is coming this way and as I told you I'm not talking a lot right now because I'm really concentrating I wish that I could be talking to you and telling you a story I love to tell stories but I think this is turning out to be sort of a sort of a teaching demonstration to kind of if you're interested in the painting process what goes on in the minds of an artist when they're creating then this kind of gives you an idea what we're thinking about as we're painting of which is I think that's a good thing for you to know dark in here real dark in here because he's going up there and he's dark right there and then we're going to put another nice little lighter one on top of that to kind of there we go and then this I think this is going to have to be kind of a pinkish color too coming down this way well I just got the word that I have 15 minutes left we're going to make it kids I don't know I'll be pretty disappointed if we don't I really don't want to mess it up by hurrying too fast let's see let's put some pink inside of this one I just love the way this has these little pink um tinges inside of it well the red is really the red and green are really showing up nicely on the on the white background that might have been a good thing to have left that background I just need a little dark to go down the center the dark to come up here we'll make a little more of a point on him there and put a little bit more red in there it's nice bright pink with a little orange in it and do a little light captured bit there on this little edge there that looks good keep moving here don't dare stop it's got to be dark right there because that's going behind I believe it's going behind there we go and there's a petal in here and we're going to make that quite dark in there I had hoped to have the enough of this done that I could do a little bit of the background for you but I don't know if I'm going to but I think that you'll agree it looks quite pretty with the white and I think if I were to put a background on it I think what I would want to do is is make it a lighter color typically I like to go very dark and dramatic with my work but there's something about this one here and I'm changing the shape of that because I want that to come back in so that we have the sensation that we're coming out and around and coming back in but anyway I typically want to go dark and dramatic but with this particular piece I really don't want to I want this to be light and fun and so I'm going to keep the background very light and we'll have to put some of that pink in there to kind of tell this little story put some red in here more red what do we have here oh I see there's one right underneath here that I missed I'm going to keep him pretty dark and you see how nicely the light shows up against the dark and now as we come down for the edge then we make it lighter and then you get the feeling of three dimension one thing is on top of another I'm going to take my little green brush here and I'm just going to just soften this up a little bit it looks a little too I don't know too perfect just kind of make it touch it up a little bit here and make it look a little softer and I think right in the center we need a little bit of of green right in here we need some yellow for our little whatever they are it's a little bold so we'll knock it down some don't need to kill it there we go there okay this one here looks like it's just hanging the yeah the stem is red so we're going to make this one here a little bit redder and bigger so he can be coming out of the pile here because otherwise they look like they're hanging in no man's land all by themselves okay now I'm just going to take and put just another little leaf right in here making just a little bit brighter so that he shows up just a little bit more alright make him just a little brighter want him to show up just a little bit more okay now then I think we'll just kind of mix up some goop and go for it we only have like maybe 5 minutes left and let's see what we can do here okay there now this is where the trick comes in am I going to ruin this all this hard work for the last hour am I going to ruin it or am I going to enhance it we'll have to see a little too much green I'm going to gray that down get some of that green in there and we're trying to do this in 5 minutes well I'm doing this I want to tell you something do you like this program do you like watching this program painting journeys because if you do it's pretty important that in order for the station our station here to keep bringing you quality painting shows or any other type of show it's pretty important to support them and if you could support our station with a monetary donation that would be much appreciated it would help us keep our programming going and if you want to know where to send it to I'll tell you right now we move this just send or just go online to shaboygon shaboygon.com and click on donate how simple is that just click on donate and help us keep bringing you good programming that hopefully you truly enjoy now I'm starting to look kind of messy because I'm hurrying but you know in a way I kind of like that because it's soft and pretty that way and it's not so stark and I think that this mixture of the two colors that I have on there as the background I think that's very pretty it doesn't make anything really look so garish and the reds and the greens are going to bleed but that's just the nature that's just the nature of the beast we'll put a little bit of a warm color over in here and up in there okay in there there we go that red is bleeding but I don't like that word bleeding it doesn't sound nice but that's kind of what it's doing so call it spade a spade anyway let me see if I can get a little bit of this down here get in there and see how you can just kind of come right on over it and as we go off the air because I've only got a couple minutes here I'm going to keep working on this and because I'm going to try to get this done because I said I would and by golly I've only got a couple minutes here and I am working hard and fast here here okay and I want you to remember that if you can my name is Kitty Linclish you've been watching or you are watching painting journeys and we're painting a Christmas scene today of Poinsettias and we've

Welcome to Toffy TV, it is the maths reaction, Everton 3 Chelsea 1, we've won a game and we've won a big game today, making no mistake about it, Duncan Ferguson in charge as caretaker man, I just followed Marko Silver sacking and it made a huge difference to this Everton side today. When he picked the team, I worried about Snidl and Sigarton in my field, I'm not going to lie, he went with a 4-4-2, which some people were absolutely delighted with, it was a little bit of a left field, one where it was sand that worked the treat, I'm not going to call that loon under Charles in the front, well cut and a woby on either wing and Everton started the game, obviously he came out, he was introduced to the crowd, great reception and within 30 seconds we were up on that Chelsea, we were closed. We were closing down, putting tackles in and the crowd bounced off for it then and when you get good at some park like that, it is difficult to play at, it's a bad pit for awake teams, when Chelsea looked a little bit caught up in it as well at times, but we had the perfect start, 5 minutes, good move, good ball, out of sit, there'd be great cross and the Charles would have brilliant had that into the corner, then had to give us the lead and it was mad seeing Duncan running down the touch line, jumping up and clenching his fist there with the shoot on. But it was brilliant, it was brilliant as well and Godderson was bouncing, the players really put a shift in, it was excellent you know, when Chelsea had a lot of the ballpoolers sitting, William particularly in the first half looked very very good, but he did look frail at the back of Godderson, that zoom wasn't great, Christiansen wasn't great either, like the look of the exchange he looked really good. But we got in a couple of times, it's not my call that Lou and me, he could have put, and possibly should have put us two in the loop, he could have took an exit touch and placed it, but he whacked one straight at Kefyd, and then Theo Welco passed up the opportunity of a volley, a goal by trying to control a ball, he also faced another one across the six yard box that Richard Charles just couldn't get on the end of, Chelsea had a couple of moments themselves, time he had it on twice, looked as though he was going to score, slide man just couldn't get on the end. Of their opportunities, but we got in at half time, one up, you were a little bit worried that Chelsea had come on to us a lot in the second half, came out, but the players were straight back up for it, the crowd you know, keeping them going brilliantly. And we got the second goal, Dominic Alvert Lou, bringing a ball down at Richard Charles back to him, and he knocked it into the net to give us a tune of lead, and we had the nonsense, obviously with VAR and you're a bit worried, but it was given and we were too open, you're thinking right, can we get through the next 15 minutes now and just take this thing out the game, but we didn't, you know, covert it with a sigh of volley from the edge of the box. I haven't seen back, I've only seen it at the game, so I don't know whether Pickford could have done better. I was surprised it went in at the, no at the match, because it was just a ball back in it looked like and it ended up in the net, you know, and we really had to then ride it out for 10 or 15 minutes as Chelsea put us under pressure with the ball, you know, kept the ball, we kept giving it away. I think it was Poole City had a shot which Pickford pushed over, but then Duncan Ferguson made a couple of changes, Tom Davies came on for Richard Charleson, then he brought Bernard on for Theo Walcott, you know, and we just started killing the game a little bit, and obviously we lost Luca Dean as well, it looked like a growing strain, Leighton Baines came on, and we had opportunities to get the third before we actually did them, and we got the third with a scramble in the box, and, you know, Tom Davies done well to go past the cover, it broke back, and there was Dominic Albert Lewin to slide it home, to give us a 3-1 lead, and, you know, God us and he rupted. The fans were magnificent today, and they really responded, the players were brilliant. Without everyone other than playing, like, their best game, it was all about work, right effort and commitment. Gilfee Sigurdun didn't have a great game in terms of his usual double, but he worked hard, Snidlam was excellent working hard, winning tackles, getting us our shape. I thought Sid that he was the man of the match for me, absolutely outstanding, he was. Michael Keane, I thought he was dodgy as anything in the first half, but I thought he was excellent in the second, Hullgate as well was excellent. So, a lot of good performances, but the real commitment, passion and drive is what we love as editonians, and that's why God us and we bounce him, and it was great seeing Duncan celebrating, you know, and the final whistle went, and he was on the pitch. And the crowd were loving it, and it just, it's brilliant, it feels brilliant to have witnessed that. And even if that's his only game as Everton manager, certainly for now, he's played mum, mum, mum, and it was a big win against the good side, they were in the top four, and it was a massive must win game for Everton, and he won it, so you can't do any more than that. So, I am delighted, give the video a thumbs up, subscribe if you've had, and join us on Patreon, otherwise, enjoy your Saturday night, see you later.
