As you all can see behind me, we got a small pond and we're gonna be trying to fish for some big bass today. Been a minute since we've been out on this beautiful little pond. I mean it's not big at all, but there's some really big fish in here and I'm just super excited to see if we can catch some because it's been months since we've been out here. We got a few special guests on the channel today. So we're gonna go over here, we're gonna rig up, introduce them and then we're gonna hop right into it and see if we can catch some big fish. That's the plan on today's video. We're just trying to hunt for some really big ones. We actually went out fishing yesterday. You guys can go check out the video on my channel. It's fishing a 100 year old pond and I ended up missing like a 10 pounder. So we gotta get revenge today, guys. We have to catch some big ones. If you guys are new to the channel, hit that subscribe button, hit the notification bell. Also hit the like button. Share this video with a friend. Let's go ahead and hop into it. So we got cold dub. Let's get it, dawg. Let's go, baby. And then we got Fletcher. Let's get it, man. How are you? What's up? Today, I make up for the last time we went fishing, okay, yesterday, where you just smoked. The fish were not having it and then you missed that giant there at the end, but today we're out here at this little small pond and we actually have caught quite a few. A lot of big ones. I mean, a lot of quality sized fish out here. And I know we missed one that was like pushing like probably eight or nine pounds. So the potential is here. It grows big ones for some reason, but we're just gonna get in here see if we can't find ourselves a nice one. We're gonna try a variety of things, see what they're munching on. And once we're dialed in, hopefully we find that big one. All right, y'all, we are rigging up so cold dub over here. He's got a chattered donk on the kicking combo. I think I'm gonna probably do the same. I mean, this thing just catches really big fish. And yesterday, this is a key bait, wasn't it Flush? Yeah, that thing was getting smoked. Yeah, this bait was just getting torn up. So he's got that paired up on the kicking combo. I got mine down here as well. If you guys wanna check them out, they're only available on kickinthebast.com. We're gonna tie this up and get started. I'm hoping, what's our goal today, boys? My what, like big fish goal? I think we need a five pounder. Five pounder? At least a five pounder. I feel like that's the gold standard. You know, one five pounder. I feel like, you know, we're in the big fish club. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Dude, I'm gonna be real though. I think we can get a six. For some reason around this time of year, like November, I just end up getting a lot of big bites. Oh yeah?  Like I'm talking eight to 12 pounders. I don't know why, but this time of year, for some reason produces some big fish. So if you guys are wondering about the chattered onk, this is actually a ThunderCricket by Striking. Check them out down below of a discount code. But this is the White and Chartreuse, regular chrome blade. And on the back of this, we're gonna pair it up with just a standard little rib tail swim bait. So we're pairing it up. This is a standard rage swimmer. I don't have a white one, but it's just like. That's like a smoke. Yeah, the smoke translucent one, it should be. Should be fine. I think it's the same one you got, right? Yeah. Oh yeah, it looks sexy right there. I'm telling you, this is a big fish bait, guys. Still put them in the water, see if we can do it. Okay guys, we're going with the Net-Ocho, little finesse style bait, and we got a Monk Shad tied on, and then I threw a ThunderCricket in my pocket, but a different color than those guys. Noah said the water was looking a little bit murky, so I grabbed a black and blue, but it ain't that murky. Well, we're gonna start out with the Monk Shad. See if we can't get something going with this. I haven't thrown this in here yet, so I just wanted to give it a shot. See if I can get some spicy bass to come up and crush this thing. I love how this Monk Shad suspends. Like when you pause it, that's a really nice flutter and suspension to it. Just a very slow sink. I feel like it has a good action for this kind of like finicky weather. So boys, this pond has some biggings lurking. Usually every time we come out here, we end up hooking into a really solid one. I believe the last time I was out here, I lost one that bleeds around seven, eight pounds. So hopefully we'll get onto a few of them today. My plan with this chatter bait is to throw it out there, let it hit the bottom, and just slow crank this thing. I'm talking just really slow.  It's been 35 to 45 degrees every day today. It's about 55, which is a little warmer than it's been. I'm hoping these fish are gonna turn up, but they were so finicky yesterday, but we ended up catching them on this really good. But we had to work it a certain way.  We had to throw it out there. I got to be into to cross that pond. Let it sink to the bottom and just slow crank this puppy. Nothing crazy. And it was load up on it, we'll eat it. One thing we got to be careful with in this one is the grass, there's a good bit of slop. Oh, there we go. First fish, not the giant we're after, but we're on the board. That's refreshing. It took me two hours to get a bite yesterday when we went fishing. So I'm glad I got one in the first two minutes instead of the first two hours.  Yeah, I mean, kind of like right, yeah, kind of right in front of that for the most part. Thanks for the munch there, little pipsqueak. Get you back right on in there. All right, Mark, shout out, I see you. I see you. Let's just find something bigger, man. Something big, something girthy, come out and crush this thing. All right, let's see who's gonna get on the big one, boys. I don't know, boys. I just have a feeling I'm gonna be the guy. I'm going to be him. I'm himmyneutron today. First challenge didn't go so well, but we just battle. We just continue to battle, focus on the task at hand and never ever lose faith. We're gonna move around left. I'm gonna move around right. They might notice something I don't know, but you know what? Maybe once in a while, your boy gets real lucky. Oh my gosh, right there's a bang, man. Holy smokes. There you go, watch that. Goodness gracious, man. Is that a fat, small fish? That thing is chunky. Get these hooks out of here. The hooks on these mock baits are just insanely sharp. Thank you for the bite there, fella. Yeah, I just had a bite right there. All right, I'm gonna spread it up and slow it down and hit it. So weird. Bro, I've had three bites right here. You nibbling at it? Like three casts in a row. He's just not eating it all the way. Might be small. All right, guys. I think we are going to move spots. It's just not, you know, caught a couple of fish here, but they're not the size that we want. Purpose of today's video is to find the big ones. And if they're not biting too well in here, it's probably the best bet that we just pick up and go somewhere else. So I will catch y'all at the next pond. We getting it, boy? So boys, this pond is very clear. It's got some really big ones in it too, so. I'm hoping we'll just walk up on a little wolf pack right here. I think we will. We're gonna crush them. So we were just talking about it. There's usually some fish. You can kind of spy on them. Yeah. Oh, yep. See, see, there's three. So how do you guys want to do this? Hold on. One person catch one and then throw in. All right. Here, I'll hook one and then get ready. Watch. So they are finicky. They saw us kind of walk up on them. This one's like in my net, babe. Is he? Yeah, they should do that pretty good. You see that one? I see him swimming up the way you were.  That one in that corner there. Yeah, go for it. He's going towards my bait now, shoot. Oh, I got a big one on me. Oh, dude, they're all weirded out, bro. That's that big one I caught yesterday, literally. We still not here yesterday, guys, for Fletcher's video. And they were eating really good. And now I just think they're a little spooked. They know what's going on here. See him running away from my bait? You see him right there? It's like a three and a half with batty. Dude, you can catch one on your net bait. Look at him looking at it. I think I'm on time on a jig. I just feel like that chatter donk would be good in certain areas, but in this pond in particular, I just feel like the water clarity is so bright. That vibration and the chartreuse is a little much. I think you're kind of overdoing it with that. What's on this green pumpkin jig? That big one's nose up on me, see that? Look at him. He's coming up to just smell me. He don't even care. He don't even turn his head. There's a nice one right here, dude. Just runs away from the jig. These fish are so finicky. It's crazy. You're fishing that clear water too. Probably they can see you. Like you're standing up on like a hill right here. I don't think they can just see you. There's a nice one right there. Oh, he might eat it. Oh, no. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's only eating it. He's only eating it. He's coming up to me right here. Yeah. He's fired up. That fish actually showed some emotion. Trying to just walk in the banks guys. Trying to see if I spot anything. Just kind of sight fishing right now about breaking an ankle. If I can get this like high ground on this hill right here, I can kind of see we're gonna walk this way. I have an idea. There's like a little spot. I think there would be a few sitting. I don't see one, but I feel like there's one over here. There might be right there. Let's see if one comes out of the blue. Yeah, fishy. Oh, he ate it. Oh my gosh, he ate it right there. He came out of the grass. Did I have him hooked? I don't think I have him on there anymore. And I'm stuck. I am stuck, Chuck. Is there actually the, I don't know if the fish is on there or not. Oh my God, there's another one that's big. Pulling up. You don't see anything here, buddy. He's gone right up to the grass. He's gonna see his friends stuck there. Oh yeah, yeah, he's not on there. Maybe I can catch this other fish.  Oh my gosh. I was like hopping and I'm like, yeah, there's no fish here. He came right out of the grass. I was up on the bank. I still got hope though. The other fish just pulled up. I don't know where he went. Dang it, dude. I have no, oh, he's right there. He's right there. He's coming up on me. No way. He's on to eat it, guys. He's on to eat it. I don't know if you guys can see him right there. Look, he's right on my jig. I don't know how much I have. Yes, I caught him. That was so cool. I don't know if you guys can see that on the GoPro. I mean, that's a good two and a half pounder. Wow, that was such a cool catch. I was trying to show you all. I don't know if you can see him pulling up on the jig. But that is so cool right there. Look at that. Beautiful bass, nothing big, but just a good sized fish.  Thank you, buddy. Thank you so much for eating. I'm going to get you right back in the water so you can swim, swim off. I had your buddy a second ago, but he did not want to stay on.  Okay, I'm going to have to go put you in the water over here, because I do not want to chuck you like 15 foot. At least I can toss you right over here. At least I can kind of give him just a friendly toss right here. Thank you, buddy. Wow, that was awesome. Well, we missed one. Got redemption on the second one. See if there's some more fish. I'll tell you, it's so hard to fish this bank, but it's also good at the same time because you're kind of getting blocked by the grass here. There might be another one up on this bank. Let's see. It's so shallow and so clear. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I see a good fish. It's like, I don't know if you saw me or saw my bait. Here, I can't see him anymore. The weird sungler. He's somewhere right there. Oh, there's one out here. Oh, he just swam away. That had to have been the one that I hooked. He already knows. He's like, I'm not messing with that bait. That's funny. I only threw out there. I was probably 10 foot from him. And he was like, I'm not. He turned his head right around. Whoa, that was just my bait. Dude, my bait looks crazy on the bottom. The little one was chasing. Oh, there is one. There's a little tiny one behind me. Well, he ate it. I think he just ate it. He's tiny. Oh, I just spooked two right there. They were right there. Oh, wait.  Actually, yep, he ate it. That is so cool. Sight fishing is fast. Oh my gosh. Like, I thought I didn't have a chance with this fish. And as quick as it goes right there. That is awesome. Beautiful markings on this bass. Not a big one. Still have yet to find a really good fish.  Yeah, no wonder you ate that easy. This fish right here has been chomping, man.  Thank you, Bubba. Oh, there's another one there. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Watch this. One hand cast. Watch. Oh my God, I got a good one. Oh, I missed him. Oh no. What am I doing? I need help. Plotcher, come here. I got a bass right there. I gotta grab him. What the heck? Hey, chill out, dude. Because I had him in my hand and I was about to release him, but I saw a fish. And I was like, I'm gonna try to cast. And then he's flopped out. Huh? Yeah, I just told him, hey, sit. And then he started flopping. So, you know, he wasn't wanting to listen. I don't have any trailer anymore though. The other one just literally slurped my trailer right off. Yeah, that one did. I, well, I spooked him.  And then all of a sudden I was like, wait. So there's, hey, hey, hey, school of fish, school of fish. Cast right next to me. Right next to me. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. There's three. He said I'm on Roman. It's crazy how you can see all that. I can't tell if they're honest or not. One just went, the one I was trying to go for was in the middle. I think there's one looking at you. One I casted that's way out there. It's so crazy that you can see that far. I know. Next spot, you gotta find some biggings. I don't know, no biggings. It's just supposed to be a biggings episode. We trying for y'all. Oh, I, he spit it out. There's two, third bait in there. My jig's literally on the tree. You see him right there? I can't see him. He went right down for it. He's right there. He's turning, he's turning. You see that? Oh yeah, see him now.  He's very, very aggressive. I'm gonna grab this jig. But he wasn't hesitant at all. That fish was right on it. What a mess I got going on. I mean, you see how hard I'm hitting it. Oh, I think I got it there. I think it was stuck on something. That fish is still under there. Oh, I had it undone in it. Wait a minute. Here we go. You're about to see the craziest flip, Fletch. I'm gonna get this on high. I'm gonna flip and catch that fish. Why won't it come? All right, all right. That fish comes out. Watch.  No, you're about to watch it. Watch. That's all I'm saying to you. All right, y'all. Pond number, I'm pretty sure for. This is what we're working with. Beautiful pond. It's not really small, but it's got some really big fish in it. So we wanted to stop by because today is just not a honest plan. I mean, it's cold as can be out here. It's getting colder because the sun's gone and the fish just have not been biting that well, especially the big one. So I'm gonna go back. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna keep continuing the fish with the jig and see if we can get a big bite, but there's a bunch of brush out here in the middle. And I think there could be a tank hidden up down there. So let's go ahead and rig up and hook us into a tow. Okay, guys, we are pulling up to a pond that I have caught some enormous bass out of. This pond has produced quite a few giants. Four or five fish between seven and eight pounds. I caught a 10 pound hybrid bass. My dad caught a 10 pound hybrid bass in here and a nine pound. So there's some potential. There is definitely a lot of wiggle room for a nice size fish in here. Do what we can do. This place is so hit or miss. It's like they're either catching them pretty decent or it's like hard to get bites, but they're so fat. Probably the fattest bass I've ever caught in my life has came out of here. I'm gonna get a couple of these, the bite. They're just biting so weird. Usually on a cold front, you'll have a lot of bites, but we have not had a ton. I think I got one. Oh, that's a good one, dude. First cast. Yeah, it's actually a good one. Yeah, baby. You had a feeling. Look at that. Oh yeah. He ain't even big, dude. He felt freaking large. I think I was pulling him out of that tree. Yeah, it is. It's pretty fish. Not giant by any means, but hey, first cast at this place. And it's a pleasure. I was telling him, it's like not easy to catch them here. So that's a great, that's a great side. They're usually fat, like huge. I just don't know the weather, the conditions today. Yesterday, I felt like the big ones were biting. Today it seems a little different, you know? We just haven't really had many big ones. I did too. When the sun came out, now the clouds are back out. Who knows, maybe the big ones will start munching. I mean, if there's one, there's definitely more, right? There's one. Get a bubble. Got him. Got him.  How, how do you bite it? Just barely picked it up. A little shniffle. I saw it, I saw him moving with it. You know, before I realized he had it. That's how that fish was. He just kind of loaded up on it. Yeah. And you didn't have to film a ticket. That's about the same size. About the same size, just a, just a little guy. Interesting, interesting. Cause usually when we get a bite in here, they just tend to be bigger. So this is not a pond, but it's a little stop on this lake that we can hit the bridge. We can flip around real slow. Couple lay downs. Got these pylons. Might be able to catch a few here. That'd be awesome if we could.  That's the craziest thing. We did the same thing. We kind of stopped here. We were frog fishing. It's kind of the same deal. Wanted to catch another fish and ended up catching like an eight pounder. Oh, oh, oh. He's running at me. Wait, wait, wait. What? Fletcher, I got drilled. I'm talking like this might be the honey hole. Is that your first cast? Yeah. Yeah. Smoked it. Dude, that, that. Yeah, there we go. Got him. He's running at me. It's a crappie. Oh my God. It's a huge crappie. Hey, he's slaving. Golly. Look at that slab. There might be multiple. That is a small. That is a slab and a half, man. He hit this big jig. Golly, boy. That is, that is a certified slab right there. If I've ever seen one. Wait, that's crazy. Absolutely. Yeah, that's a thing. No, a lot of y'all would love to take that home with you. No, I got three.  Yeah, it's definitely not. Oh. Oh, but I break off on, on fish, you know? Yeah. But I can literally just torque on this stick. Well, that is a nice one, guys.

We tried so hard today to find these big ones, but we just couldn't get them. If you guys want to check out Flesher's channel, check it out down below. And I will catch y'all in the next episode of Kicking a Rasty Game Beat.


Welcome to the Millennial Mind on ThinkTech, and I'm your host today, Carol Mon-Lee. Our show is called The Formation of One Millennial, and we're going to talk about the varied influences and experiences affecting a Hawaii young millennial. If you want to ask a question or participate in the discussion, you can tweet us at ThinkTech HI or call us at<PHONE_NUMBER>. Our guest for today's show is Anna Yor, who is summer interning at NAI Cheney Brooks. She's a junior at Harvard College and a graduate of Yolani School. We'll explore her combination of interests, including academic, athletic, and community, and whether it represents and reflects her generation. What skills and values do you develop in a world of contradictions? What experiences have helped form your views? So welcome to the show, Anna. Thank you so much for having me. We're so glad to have you. Well, I know you don't speak for all millennials, and you were born in the late 90s, so you're what we call a young millennial. The millennials, though, however, are the largest living generation in the United States at this point. Over 80 million strong. Did you know that? I did not. And prior to that, it used to be the baby boomers my generation, and of course many of the baby boomers are now parents to millennials. So you are from Hawaii, and now you're at Harvard. You graduated from Yolani. So you decided to come back to Hawaii for summer? Yeah, so I thought this was probably my last summer. I could have the opportunity to come home as in next summer. I'm trying to work somewhere on the East Coast. And it's been really great being home, spending time with my little sister who is going to be a senior at Yolani, and spending time with my parents because they don't get to see them often in the school year. And also going to the beach and eating local food has been really fun. And I'm also working at NAI Cheney Brooks, which is a commercial real estate company here in Hawaii. And my parents actually set me up with the managing director, Joe Haas, and I've been working alongside him all summer. What kind of work did you do as an intern? I've done various things, attending his meetings and going to property showings and writing press releases. What's your major at Harvard? Has this been part of the experience to help you get more involvement in what you're actually going to major in? Yeah, so my major is cognitive neuroscience and evolutionary psychology. I originally came into Harvard pre-med. Both my parents are doctors. And my older sister is attending medical school this fall. So I kind of thought that was like the default and what I would do. But I ended up, my favorite class at Harvard was internal psychology. And I think that's what really kind of changed my direction away from medicine and into psychology. And I also joined Harvard Women in Business, which has really opened my eyes to the whole business side and how I can potentially use psychology to kind of make my way into that field. And so that's why this summer doing more business rather than medicine or psychology, I see. And now you're going to go back to Harvard. And what kind of classes are you going to be taking? What areas outside of classes, too, are you involved in? So at Harvard, it's a liberal arts college. So we take a lot of different classes, having to do with culture and religion and various other types of classes. So I think this semester I want to take an economics class. They have this really cool class called Economic Sociology. And there's a lot of writing, which I love to write. So I'm really excited for that. And just kind of exploring my interest in the upper level psychology classes. And I think I'm really excited for the upper level classes that I can take. So long term, do you see a combination then you said, mentioned psychology and how it might affect business. So is that beyond college, what would you want to do with those skills and interests? Psychology doesn't give me the technical skills in business. And I am at sort of a disadvantage from other kids at schools that study, like marketing or finance, or that's their major. But I do think psychology gives me a broader perspective on just how we work and how we interact, which I think is really important to any field that I go into. And I think that those technical skills that I can learn on the job, and I think it'll help me just have a broader perspective and maybe be able to understand the people I work with better and the clients that I work with. I see. Well, you know, the show The Millennium Mind, we're not saying that you, of course, represent all millennials. But the millennial generation, of course, is so important and vital right now. Of course, we all know Mark Zuckerberg is kind of probably the most famous millennial. Probably. And he's changed the face and Facebook of all of us. So how has technology and media and communications, how has that influenced you? Because it's basically started with at least moved great strides with Mark and your generation. So I think my generation was definitely born with it. And as we're growing, technology is also growing. And from a personal experience, I think that technology, especially social media, has a very good and bad side. What do you use in social media? Are you one of those who's on everything? Pretty much everything except for Twitter. I have a Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat. Those are the main three things I use. And I think they're all for different purposes, which I like. But I think there's a fine line between overuse and using it smartly and kind of using it as a way to express yourself and connect with friends. And then I think there's also a pretty dark side of social media, which involves comparing yourself to others and cyberbullying and bullying, using it as a distraction. And I went through times where I was just on social media all the time and I would just compare myself to other girls that I would see on Instagram or Facebook.  And I think... So was this your line when you were in college or were you in high school? Mostly high school. I think college has kind of... I've definitely used social media less for comparing myself and more for connecting with other college-age people and my friends at home and also my parents. I think older generations use Facebook more than they do Instagram or Snapchat. So I think Facebook is a great way for me to connect to my parents and my grandparents even and my parents' friends while I'm away at college because I think we use it...  And I think Instagram and Snapchat is more of a day-to-day... like not necessarily very important things you're posting there. I see. So how about you have two sisters? Yes. And parents and grandparents. So how have you... And then of course I'm sure you have friends and colleagues both at school, both at undergraduate and high school. So how have you seen social media affect them? Have you seen it evolve like it has evolved for you in terms of trying to pick the better uses of it rather than absorbing your time to be taking you down? Yeah, I think the older generation I think uses it much more wisely than the younger generation because they know what life was like without it and they don't rely on it to connect with other people. And they, I guess, necessarily don't trust it as much as we do, I think. So I find like with my older sister... I'm sorry, my younger sister and her friends... I think they're on social media more than myself and my older sister and I think they're even more connected to it than I am. So I think they almost have a higher potential of using it in the wrong way which is kind of scary, but I think there's just a fine balance between... It's learning too, yeah. How do you get your news? Do you use it for news? Occasionally, mostly Facebook for news. So what do you read on Facebook that gives you daily news? No, not daily news, more like just interesting articles that my parents will share or like friends at Harvard would share. I also try to like read the Wall Street Journal every once in a while and things like that. Yeah, on the app. Oh, on the app. So is that how you, and what about your sisters? Do you all get the news the same way? You don't buy hard copy newspapers, do you? No, I don't think my parents do. I've seen one. I don't think my parents buy hard copies either. They either watch the news, the nightly news, or read it online. What about reading other types of material for entertainment or for leisure reading? If I do read books, which is, I don't really have much free time to do that, but I'm trying to get that into my schedule. But if I read books, I usually read on my iPad. I really don't have any hard copy books. And then do you find you're interested in fiction, autobiographies, biographies, fantasy? I like sci-fi actually a lot. I have kind of an interest in astronomy and kind of an outside interest that I don't take any classes for it or anything, but it just kind of interests me. So is that something that you find among your friends, is that the common way then for them to read, to either gather their news or to keep up in community and social and political events? Yeah, for sure. At school, we have the Harvard Crimson, which is a famous paper. Daily, yeah, school newspaper, student newspaper. So they have hard copy and I get emails every day that have the articles. And my roommate is actually the senior editor for it. So she kind of shoves the articles on, especially that she writes or edits onto her roommates. And we read that a lot together. OK, well, we're going to take a short break, Anna. And we are with my guest, Anna Yor, who is here on the Millennial Mind. And we'll be right back. We have this crazy thing going on today. I was just walking by and all these DJs and producers are set up all around the city. I just walked by and I said, what's happening, guys? They told me they were making music. So talented and then sat down and kind of I said, we'll do it. Welcome back. This is Carol Mann Lee on the Millennial Mind with my guest, Junior from Harvard College and a graduate of Yolani School, Anna Yor. And Anna has just been interning this summer at NEI Cheneybrook. So welcome back. Just during the break, we talked a little bit about one of the characteristics that one of our other former interns who was here at Think Tech, a millennial, mentioned to me was that she felt her generation was characterized by the amount of stress that she felt. And I asked you whether you feel that kind of stress or what kind of stress you might feel. I've definitely felt a lot of stress, especially in the last couple of years going to Harvard and having to balance the rigorous academics and athletics and social life has been really a challenge. And there are times where I am really stressed if I have a paper due and I finish practice late or things like that. But I think overall, my generation will speaking just for myself. I kind of get stressed about the future and where exactly I don't know exactly. I see myself where there's a career, like where I want to live. And I think, especially at Harvard, where I find a lot of the students they think they know exactly where they want to work and live and what exactly they want to do with their major. I think it's very stressful to not know that. And I have to remind myself that it's OK not to know. And I think comparing myself to others and just being unsure about the future is a big stressor. Is the uncertainty about the future any related in any way to our current political environment? For me, not necessarily. I think the stress about the future is just not knowing exactly where my passion lies and not being and not being exactly sure of what industry that is in. And if I'm going to run out of time trying to find it or I guess just how competitive it is to get a job. And I see things like that. Well, we talked about I know that you actually have explored a lots of different things. And was it in high school that you went to Cambodia? Yes, it was in my junior year I went to Cambodia over our spring break with my family and the Rotary Club of Honolulu. And what did you do there? So we spent about 10 days helping to build a school in rural Cambodia. We would like help build a certain building within the school and then interact with the children. There were a lot of Hawaii kids on that trip. And while our parents were building, we would play volleyball with them or like teach them how to play sports or things like that, which was really fun. So did it change your view of the community, the world? How did it affect you? Sure. How did it affect you? I think that was one of the most eye-opening experiences I've had so far, just from just realizing how lucky we are to have clean water, air conditioning. Have you maintained ongoing, whether it's interest in the area or how have you used that to maybe form or help you decide what else you might be interested in doing? I haven't necessarily maintained a special connection with that school in Cambodia, but I think it has overall changed my mindset. And just whenever I'm stressed or worried about something, I just think how lucky I am to even have these stresses. It's a luxury to have a stress. It is a luxury sometimes to have a stress just thinking about these kids that have nothing. And they're still happy. They're smiling. They're playing with their friends and things like that. I think it really keeps you grounded, going back to that experience. I know you mentioned volleyball. I know you played volleyball in high school. Yeah, I've played since I was 10. Are you playing now? Yeah, I play at Harvard. And what kind of a team is that? Is that the intramural team? I don't know. It's a varsity team. It's a varsity team. So that means you go and compete with other schools. Right. We're in the Ivy League division. So what position do you play? I'm a defensive specialist. Here I've been an outside hitter all my life because I'm considered on the taller side here. In Hawaii, right? In Hawaii, yes. But at school, I'm actually the second shortest. So I don't play front row anymore. So let's talk a little bit about attitude, maybe both yours and maybe your sisters as compared to maybe your parents and other generations. Do you consider yourself more liberal, more conservative? And how do you view the current political environment in terms of enabling you to do what's best for your community and yourself? Well, Harvard is definitely one of the most liberal places in the United States. And I think that has really shaped my opinions, whether politically or in other areas. And I don't play that much close attention to politics because I'm busy with other things. And it just doesn't interest me as much as other things do. Are there a lot of demonstrations? Do you get involved? And I know there are some. But is that something that you've been involved in? I've never been involved in a demonstration, but I do. Is there pressure for students right now at college to do things like that? Sign petitions, wave signs, march? I think there is. I personally don't take part in that. But that doesn't mean I don't hold those views. I'm just, there haven't really been much at Harvard. I think there's been more at other schools. But people definitely voice their opinions on social media too when I take part in that also.  So as an entrepreneur, do you see yourself or your friends or your siblings in that role? Are those at Harvard getting more into the entrepreneurship model as opposed to community work, teaching, science? I guess science can be entrepreneurial. I personally am not an entrepreneur, I would say. But I do see kids at Harvard, especially computer science, majors building off of what they see Mark Zuckerberg do and things like that. And I do think that our generation is using technology to market better to people and kind of do the simple, easy work that people used to do either by hand or using slower computer programs. But now we have ways to make that a lot quicker so we can focus our strength on other things instead of doing that boring work on the computer. So I think that the direction I see a lot of millennials going is just using the technology to make easier things easier and quicker. But I don't think technology will ever really replace the human interaction and especially with my sister going to medical school. People always come out and tell her that we won't need doctors anymore because robots are going to take over. I don't believe that. I think robots will help us make more precise incisions and things like that. But we will always need human minds and that human interaction. So what has formed your values, do you think, because one of the defining events of the last few years of course was the 2008 recession and all that meant for the economy, jobs, and the future for a lot of people. So has that been something that you find that you were in grade school? Yeah, a little. I think my family was, I think in terms of that, my parents were both very successful people and they've worked really hard. And I think having them as role models has really helped me to kind of shape my values and I think the mentors and coaches that I've had have really helped me with that too. And I think that as opposed to, sorry, what was the question again? Well, we're talking about values. Values, OK. What might have changed, and you of course mentioned your parents and mentors, and I do want to talk about your mentors in life, who have been your mentors in addition, of course, to your parents and teachers.  I think my coaches definitely, I think sports has taught me more than I have learned in any classroom, to be honest. This is the volleyball coaches. I've played with a bunch of different teams and a bunch of different players and I think that has showed me how to interact with people and how to be respectful of other people and how to work well as a team. I think that's important in anything that we do. And also, coaches have had a huge impact on me.  And now I'm thankful for that because I know taking the criticism well is one of the best skills that I've learned so far. And I think that coaches are great because they're only trying to make you better. They don't really benefit from telling you to do a certain move or have a different mindset. So they're really doing it for you and you just need to realize that and then be coachable. OK, so are you also teaching sports? Are you involved as a coach? I am not. I did in Cambodia a little, but that was the extent to which I've done that. But I'm very open to volunteering and on things like that. I just haven't really had the opportunity yet. So OK, so we've covered your sports and some of your community activity and your courses at Harvard. And what else are you looking forward to when you go back to school? Are you going to be doing more internships like the one you just did this summer? I unfortunately can't do an internship during the year, but next year I hope to get an internship in either marketing, thinking, or consulting. Would you come back to Hawaii? I'm not sure if I would next summer. I'm looking to be in New York or a big city where I can kind of grow more, but I will definitely miss Hawaii. Well, we've been speaking with Millennial Ana Yor, who is a junior at Rising Junior at Harvard College, graduate of Yolani School, where she was on the volleyball team, and just finished completing an internship at NEI Cheney Books. So although Ana does not represent the entire Millennial generation, she is a wonderful representation of someone who has used the opportunities that she's received, the education you received, and the values of, I'm sure, a strong network of people and friends and family. So thank you so much for coming, Ana. And we wish you the best next year. Thank you so much. And come back when you graduate again. I will. All right. This has been Carol Mon Lee. This brings us to the end of the show. We hope you've enjoyed it. And our guest, Ana Yor, from Harvard College, we've been talking about the formation of one millennial and young millennials on the way to saving the world, thanks to our production engineer, Ray Sangalang, our floor manager, Robin McLean, and all the people who care and contribute to our think tech production.

Hey guys, welcome back to Magic Breath Doxy. My name is David and this is a deck review. Okay, today we're going to look at the prototype for the Viridian playing cards. What is Viridian? Viridian means green. You know, most decks where they first come out of their first run, they're in more traditional colors like red or blue. Viridian is being put out by Cardify and their first release is this beautiful green color. Now, so who is Cardify? You might remember a while back they did the Aquila deck. If you don't remember that deck, go back and find that review. I'll put it in the description below. Aquila was one of my favorite decks and so this is certainly going to be probably up there too. If you don't know Cardify, there are three different people, three different supporters, three different backers, three different creators. You got Adesorinia. He's the graphic artist. He's the graphic designer behind this. And then you also have two more. You have Ivan Cho and you have Anthony and Gracia. This was designed by Adesorinia. Viridian, Viridian playing cards. They feature a custom vintage design. You have all these reimagined court cards. There's going to be a beautifully crafted tuck case that I don't have, but you should go out and check the Kickstarter and see what that looks like right now. It's got a really cool stamp that has a really intricate custom design. And I think it's just shaping up to be a deck that's just as beautiful as it is functional. You know, Viridian is the first now in the new Tri-Card line. They're going to have these hopefully going forward a signature playing cards, probably in different colors. And we'll see that come about maybe in some of the future add-ons or the future push goals. I think these cards are versatile. They're versatile for magic. They're versatile for card flourishing. And I think they'd be great just for your common casual game of poker. The back design is really beautiful. And it really looks to me like a classic deck. You know, it looks like it could have been printed from one of our, any one of our favorite publishing houses. You got that beautiful star in the center there and a lot of vine work going around the outside. And you have these little kind of, I don't want to call them balls, but they're like rounded edges, these corners. Another thing you're going to see is the border. You have some of the thickness of the white along the side, but everywhere the rounded edge comes into play, it pushes that border out and it gives the illusion of a thinner border, which a lot of flourishers like. And you can just imagine what those little rounded edges would look like in a really cool spread or really cool fan. These cards will be printed from Legends Playing Card Company and they'll be done with their classic finish. Now traditionally, Legends cards have a shorter run than some of the other houses. And typically, in a Legends run, you only get a choice of having one Joker and a Gaff or one Joker and an ad card or two Gaffs or two ad cards. So it'll be interesting to see which direction Tri-Card takes when the Viridian deck is printed. Now, like I said earlier, this is a prototype. I don't know what the actual deck of cards will include. This is a Tri-Card ad card that was included with the prototype. And as a Gaff, there was a double backer included as well. With this deck, you're going to get two somewhat identical Jokers. You can see one's black and white, one's color. The colored one is done in the same color scheme as the court cards. As you can see, it's a Jester standing tall, holding his Jester stick and done, again, in a very traditional sense of what traditional Jokers would look like. Also with the Viridian deck, you get this beautiful Ace of Spades. It says Tri-Card projects at the top. And you can see it's richly ornate. It's really big. Down here at the bottom, it says designed by Audisirena and playing cards. The topography on this deck is really beautiful. And it's based on all of this vintage type face and inspired from old Bill Heads and ephemera. You can also see that the pips are all stylized. That's an original club there. Really sharp diamond, original heart cards, and beautiful spades. The court cards in the Viridian deck are all stunning. They each have their own different face and original and uniquely designed wardrobe. It looks amazing in this color theme. You got these greens and deep reds, and it really just gives a really good balance to both the design and the integrity of this is the standard deck of playing cards. Well, that is pretty much it for the Viridian deck. Like I said, it's a Kickstarter. It's a project right now. Head on down to kickstarter.com. Check it out. Look at Viridian playing cards by Carnify Projects and back it today.


Good morning and welcome to today's products and focus. Most global equity markets are a lot lower this morning following on from Friday's non-farm perils that came out a lot better than expected in the 295 versus 240 as the expectation so that came in much better plus the unemployment percentage dropped as well all in all pointing to a potential summer rate hike over in the US with the trade free markets potentially looking as soon as June being priced in but I'll have to Change is more macro fundamental data releases come out of the US and there is Another statement getting released by the Fed on the 18th of March Which are really looking at exactly the type of rhetoric that is Is utilized specifically the removal of the term? Patience in regards to interest rates in the US so the US 30 obviously having a massive negative candle out there Fully variation golfing pattern breaking through multiple levels of support And 21 period SMA just shy of that 55 period SMA certainly as long as we're below 17 8 9 5 That's negative opening up a pathway to 17 7 3 8 As we have crossover the MACD and across on the slow stochastic as well from a technical perspective Chart not looking so great and obviously this is just a short-term Shock from from an earlier potential rate hike with people think what will potentially dampen demand With the US dollar increasing and value It's actually having a negative impact on real wages in the US which haven't increased for some time So there's a lot of negative aspects attached to them So if I look at the for that region, so if you have a look at the UK one hundred You can see bullish engulfing pattern failure to break through resistance broken through potential support as 69 0 6 Not quite as a staunch Not quite such a negative Patterns as well what we saw on the US 30 there the UK one hundreds looking a little bit better You know as we were literally at an all-time high there Just a couple of sessions ago We have broken through a potential trend line, but that trend line was maybe not that great to begin with but trading blows 69 0 6 is a little bit Harsh in the short term because it also brings us below the 21 period SMA other technicals actually were relatively neutral Matty's been flat for a while. So the classic had a Signal to sell, but that was number of sessions ago So if we can get ahead above 69 0 6 then you keep 100 might be okay Failing that there's actually quite a big gap between this level and next potential support at 67 71 Moving on to Japan 225 and the dollar yen has been all over the place since the non-farm pools figure came out We were trading above 121 at one point But most global equity markets are a little bit down in the back of that interest streak Thought process just now, but certainly look at this this formation We had there on Friday is spiked up a lot higher as the yen began to run out of steam There are inflationary pressures Attached to the Japanese yen right now, which the some Japanese bank governors have said they would have to address at some point So that is quite firmly a doji formation right there But 18 648 is next potential support level to be aware of so if we jump on to that dollar yen position You can just see where we were finally breaking above the the highs right here from September We're still drinking above that right now 13187 is the potential resistance level to be aware of and as that spikes higher Japan 25 should move higher as well So moving on to West Texas crude Latest report for Goldman Sachs and tend to Kate that they are expecting a $40 a barrel move at some point I'll be at most of these investment banks to come out with all sorts of crazy target City Bank came out with a target not that long ago with a value much lower than that but With the US dollar moving the way that it is cruel material is being incredibly high things like that are outweighing things like trouble over in Libya and Price increases in Saudi Arabia Saudi Arabia, but nevertheless, we are kind of floating around this $50 range That seems to be a potential pivot area for us to be aware of $55 is potential resistance or 54 85 and 43 29 is actually the next potential support level from a technical perspective Gold got absolutely smashed in Friday real horrible candle formation right there breaking smashing through 1186 We're now almost between two new ranges of 1137 and 1186 broken support now expected active resistance Death cross and moving averages other technicals are quite oversold just now But no reversal signal as of yet The slow stochastic actually had a had a reversal signal a number of sessions ago So it's probably gonna go back into oversold territory, but the fundamental factors are If the interest rate hike is gonna happen sooner rather than later gold doesn't like higher rates in the US And that will continue to wait but basically just keep you on any US data that's gonna support the view that we're gonna have An early rate hike or not We'll come back to the second my data announcements in a minute moving on to your dollar your dollar a lot lower One spot 07 86 the next potential support followed by a one spot zero two And that's obviously quite a big motor move to get down to that almost close to parity It has obviously been lower than that Historically, but we need to wait and see how things transpire. It's got to get below one spot zero seven eighty six first Before you have to start worrying about what that next support level is and certainly it wouldn't be that surprising the season bounces off here And this is like two thousand and three lows that you're seeing right here So it's a significant move for the euro good for the eurozone countries I guess it makes their goods more competitive gets more tourism there, etc, etc So it's actually gonna be helping the eurozone rather than hindering it to certain extent Especially it comes to a lot of debts. So looking at GP USD to finish things off Very similar picture breaking through one spot 51 85 really the long-term support one spot for 813 is that it's very much in play Technicals are just a bit matter for the technicals actually here. So there could be further room for maneuver We're just crossing the zero line right here. The RSI is just going into oversold But so it's classic is actually a good bit away from being oversold as well So there could be some further moves. We could just be reversing this moving average right here to post a death cross So what's the benefit moves? So a commit data-wise is nothing really today of any significance. It's fast forward on Tuesday You've got Chinese CPI again nothing much moving on to Wednesday You got more Chinese data could elementary is again not a huge round of extra data And then move on to the 12th of March, and we've got CPI from Germany, which will be quite interesting and also industrial production and US unemployment claims and retail sales So it does promise to be a fair amount of stuff on Thursday the 12th of March as ever Keep your eye on the chart for make insights popular going forward and join me again tomorrow to find out what happened next
