Hi. Hi. What you always like when we start is like you're laughing at something or someone. That's myself for doing it again. Oh wow, for doing a YouTube video again. Yes. Wow, we see you guys. Anyway, welcome to another video right here on our channel. It's me plus you is us. And today we're talking about something... Maybe we should introduce ourselves. Who are you? Oh, my name is Kwame. I'm a filmmaker and voice actor. And this is... Hi, my name is Elaine. I am part-time YouTube, part-time business developer. And we both... Or we live together in our craft. Yeah, and we document bits and pieces of our experiences in conversation like this one you're watching now. So this is what most of our videos are like. But sometimes we do something different whenever we can. So today I came up with a topic because I thought it would be interesting or... Yeah, I think it's just good to talk about our insecurities as well and how they shape us. I think we live in a day and age where parents and... There's a lot of fascination about growth and learning and self-development. But I think it also has kind of a downside. And often when people see us on YouTube they think we're like so confident. And while people put labels on what we do, they're mostly like... People are amazed. But I think it's also good to acknowledge like there's also things we work on and... How has it shaped us throughout our lives? So that's why we're here. So basically talking about our insecurities. Some of our insecurities. And how they shape us. And how they shape us. Or shape us. Okay. Are you going to go first? Yeah, so I thought we could do physical personality and then skills. Okay. So the physical insecurities personality-wise and your skills as in what you do... Feel like you could do more. Or better or anything. Okay. That works. Okay. Do you want to go first? Physical? Physical. The naked truth. Is it a naked truth? Oh, it's good to be vulnerable but we never... Well, we do vulnerable topics but this one... So this is more like which part of my body am I insecure about? Or conscious of or how you have a story. You need it to learn to love it. So I think the part of my body that I think stands out is my nose. So I don't... I'm not so... Should I say like negatively... I don't know how to even put it deeply insecure about it. But if there was a part of my body that I wished was slightly smaller and maybe slender, would be my nose. When I was growing up, the part of my body that was generally... Laughed at was my head, the size of my head. Really? The size of my head. Because it was not proportionate to the size of my body. At the time? At the time, it was not proportionate. Because you were growing? Yes, it was not proportionate to the size of my body. My head was big. I think it's true because babies also have a very big head and then the body kind of... Yeah, but mine was big, big. So I even had a big name which I'm not going to... I almost mentioned it. No, I'm not going to mention it here. But not that I'm... Orally we'll comment in the comments honestly. If they do know it. But now that I'm grown, I think the part of my body that gets pointed out often is my nose. They make reference to a Ghanaian TV personality as my uncle. If you know him, then you know what I'm talking about. So yeah, that's the physical... But it's funny because you're insecure about it, but you still decided to take a piercing in it. Yeah, because I'm just living. I mean, what can I do about my nose? Yeah, but okay. So you learn to love it, otherwise you wouldn't put it in the way. Yeah, I'm learning to love it. More like hiding it. Yeah, I'm learning to love it. That's good. Yeah. And what's about... Because I know you also got to look a lot of nicknames about the color of your skin, like the darkness of it. I'm not insecure about the darkness of my skin at all. I just dislike the local slang that... I mean, Ghanaians generally describe people by how they look. I know. They just make up a nickname and just, you know, I just really dislike hearing blackie. Yeah. But yeah. I dislike hearing. Not that I don't like my skin. It's just this...  Sorry. Yeah. So yeah, so it's still remarkable people point this out or they used to point it out. Yeah. I mean, people still do.  Instead of saying hello, would... I mean, if you go to Kansai Manso for example. Then what do you say? If you go to Kansai Manso for example right now and somebody wants to get your attention, they'll most likely use the skin color because it stands out than most of the people around you. Intrigued? Yeah. No, no, no. They'll say blackie. They'll call you like that. Yeah. So they're similar to... Are you compared to Obruni? Yeah, something like that. Similar. Yeah. Yeah. I think that it's very... We're actually talking about it with our friends from Belarus the other day that it is...  Physical appearance.  Yeah, which in Nellis if you would do that I think people wouldn't like that at all. But here it's kind of common or maybe people make peace with it. I'm not sure. Yeah. Okay. What about you? Well, I think I've been for a longer list than you. I think... You have a longer list on the physical? Yeah. Okay. I think... So for me, I think in the beginning I was insecure about my eyes because they're quite in my whole face. They are quite small. Okay. And I remember in high school first class there was this geography teacher. You know how these things scar you? I think you know the one with... You know this geography teacher and even reflecting on it with the knowledge I have now I think it's weird but he was like talking to me and then suddenly he said like already talking about my eyes or he started talking about my eyes and then he asked whether I didn't have something Asian in my family which I now find problematic in so many ways. Yeah, because... Like why would you talk to a student about her eyes like a 14 year old or a 13 year old one? And then make a stereotypical reference. My eyes are slanted, yes, I know but like why would you make that... Reference. So I think it's also a weird guy but funny how I still like carry that around and then I believe I talk to my mom about it and then she actually said that she also got comments about her eyes because they're also small like... So I have her eyes. So she also said that people used to do that to her which I think is so weird, right? When people comment on that but now I'm okay, I mean I can't change anything about it so I'm okay with it, like they work and they're doing great so I'm okay. I just like to wear a bit of mascara and then... I think you have beautiful eyes. Thank you. Talk to my geography teacher. I'll find him. I know exactly his face. It's so weird when these things pop up that you can actually picture the person's face or the situation. I think another one is... Well maybe that one increased when I got to Ghana because here in Ghana you have a different beauty standard for ladies so in the Netherlands it's like the kind of model look like so tall, skinny, slim.  So I think there I fit it in I didn't necessarily love my body like people would comment that it's nice that I'm tall and all these things but now because I'm in Ghana... When you switch here at Ghana... Yeah, I feel the beauty standard is curvy and I'm not curvy and people like to point that out and they like to say like oh the slim is or you need to gain weight I get that a lot like random people tell me to gain weight. People that are your friends or... No, random people like when I buy something somewhere or when I'm sitting somewhere. Really? Well, I eat a lot for why I eat a lot. So this is how my body looks. Yeah. So I've now been starting to just accept that this is how it looks I probably won't be curvy because for example my sisters are a bit more curvy which I was always like wow you know that's nice but I'm not so... Yeah. Try to accept that and then one more... I mean I have a bit more but I think let's not put it all out there. Yeah, I think women generally get more criticized for how they look. I know about their eyes I know about the body size but I didn't know random people would tell you to eat more. Yeah, I know, yeah. Why? I don't know, people think... These are the moments when I wish I was present then we could have it. Sometimes it kind of throws me off because I've actually been more conscious of that I should eat like I want to eat more regular just because it makes my body feel more at ease not necessarily connecting it to weight. I just think generally people should not comment on your weight or your body in general.  Yeah. It's fine. Yeah, so now I'm more eating regularly and I see it makes my energy more stable like I don't have like other... The fluctuations... So for me that works and that's kind of encouraging. And I think last one... How do I go and play this on YouTube? If you don't want to, don't. No, it's fine. So I have... It's all blonde but I have quite a lot of facial hair. I have... Yeah, but that's what you call cilia. It's not hair here. I know, it's small. I know, but I think for example for my brother it's great because he can literally grow his beard but I do have... like now I do my eyebrows and everything. I do have like thick eyebrows. Like I have a lot of small blonde hairs around this area and... She knows this is only the invisible. So I am conscious of it. So for example when I'm in the sun like I'm in the sun and I'm talking to somebody I'm like they're gonna see it. They're gonna see I'm so hairy but I've been trying consciously the last... I think the last year because of course there... I mean maybe there's also the western beauty center but there's a lot of focus on no hair, right? No armpits hair. Your eyebrows should be on point. No other areas. No hair. Yeah. So automatically when you have an issue like that you feel like you have to remove it. Yeah. I've never done that. Even when I go to the spa sometimes the ladies who work there comment on it like wow you have a lot of hair should we remove it for you? Really? On your face? They do say that. Yeah. Wow. So for me... Tell me these things. Your inkling is I should remove it. That's what's expected of me, right? That's what society is telling you one way or another. But for me I've now the past year I've been trying to... I mean I have been made like this by God or by something.  So I should just accept it as it is. Body hair is not weird for women. Some women have chest hair. What okay I'm going to ask this has it ever bothered you if I notice and it bothers me? Has it ever crossed your mind if you thought it bothered me? Yeah I do. I do think about it. And what conclusion do you come to? Well I try to tell myself that I mean you're not married with me for my looks only and I think... but it doesn't even bother me. I don't even see it. Yeah but it's not only about you, right? I know. I mean I think that I'm trying now instead of going the route of I should remove these things and I should wax everything but that will be half my face so I also don't know how to work with it. You should just accept it. This is how I have been created and women have facial hair, women have chest hair some women have like hair on their belly and we should just normalize that instead of forcing somebody to remove her small blonde hairs in her face just because it doesn't look feminine whatever feminine is by that standard. So that one is work in progress but I am aware of it. I'm sorry. No it's fine. I think it's to share things that you're insecure about so you can throw out of it and I think everybody has these things. Right? Maybe in that case small hands. Really? Yeah. I think my hands are small. Mine are big. She has bigger hands than I do. What is wrong with it's bad for a man? It's not seen as masculine it's seen as a less masculine trait men have bigger firmer usually even more tough palms my palms like my hands are soft. Yeah it's nice. You know and it's small but I never often like think about it it's not something until somebody brings it up and I think about it that my hands I can lift stuff I can do whatever I want to do. Yeah it's so weird that just because the shape is different or different than whose that you get insecure about it it's weird right? Because it works we should be grateful that everything works no? That's it. You have two hands instead of like oh they're small it's weird kind of like. Okay personality. Maybe a character trait or I don't have a lot of patience I think I'm a bit intolerant. I don't know if I'm insecure about it but it often is the reason for a clash with people there's also the anxiety it's not anxiety in terms of I don't know how to turn off certain things like certain things I do not like like for example with time so I'm very timely and I don't know how to switch off or relax. Yes that's the thing I don't know how to relax when something needs to be done in a certain way or at a certain time and since there's also less of a tolerance and more of a quick temper in that sense especially when you feel the need for the thing to be done and the other person is like chill or doesn't take it as serious then I don't know how to just swallow all those emotions and pretend that it's fine and I should just relax yeah so personality wise yeah there is that I don't know how to be tolerant of when things are not or when we're not on the same wavelength in terms of an activity that needs to be done in a certain way there's also which one I was thinking about it right now and I forgot I can go with anyone personality okay you go I'll think about it with the one I was thinking about hmm okay I got a lot of comments when I was growing up that I was loud my voice I was always picked out of class because I was loud and I think in the beginning of our relationship as well I made comments on that especially when I wanted to gossip with you and whisper something to Elaine like what can you just yeah so I think I turned that down a bit I mean I'm still loud I don't think you are anymore no but maybe that's not a good thing because people told me I'm loud I should have just been loud I just think for women people always want to make a small I don't take up too much space so anyway now I'm sad that I'm like that well I'm loud sometimes I get to my life loud I don't think you've toned down in terms of the volume of it you're still very vocal in the things that you yeah you're still vocal there's a difference between the volume of the voice versus you not saying things you want to say anymore so the volume went down a bit but I think also because at home we were with four kids so you really had to be loud to make your point okay that makes sense do you remember your point no because I was talking about yours I wasn't thinking about that yes okay I think I remembered I think another thing would be I don't know if I'm insecure about it again but it's something that that makes me very confident no it's something that so it's not an insecurity as in I think about it in such a way that I want I feel bad when I think about it no but it's more like when it comes to engaging other people in the social setting or you know collaborative way then it becomes an issue which needs to be in a way worked on to be able to accommodate other people around you I think one of the things is sometimes I'm almost always caught in my own thoughts so I come off as not sociable yeah besides the fact that I would generally prefer my own company which is also a bad not a bad thing but in this thin age extroverts are very much rewarded like the more you send out the better the better it is so I'd rather be by myself or do things my own way or so there's that aspect as well because again like you said it doesn't work for the current climate of how things are I mean your network influences your network yeah definitely so it's something that you have to get out of your shell to accommodate other people and be more open and also not only you know just open your if it's a bubble don't burst it if you can open a bit of a hole somewhere like you know let other influences in I do think that I do pull you out of that a bit because I think on your own you wouldn't really go to some things and then I send it to you and I push you a little bit to go or we go together otherwise you would be home a lot which is not bad but I think it's good to practice right and that also makes me often want to do things by myself also because of the first thing I talked about that I mean I often don't have the patience to tolerate certain things to a certain point or to allow things to unveil naturally or yeah you know unravel sorry unravel naturally so your perfection is a bit yeah and when it's not control freak yeah and when things are not going the way I expect I'd rather you know what you just leave it I'll do it my way or I'll do it alone or I'll do it by myself which is not exactly a very positive trait or personality trait to to help you grow trust the other people yeah I'm also perfectionist but I'm not as secure about it now you're not a perfectionist compared to me no maybe there are skills with that anyway let's go to the last one skills you want me to go yeah you go skills first okay one that is very deeply rooted I think it is more told to me than really okay maybe okay I don't know but I'm just gonna talk it already started in primary school because I think in group 4 then you're like 8, 10 9 and we were doing math and all these things and I don't know why the 90s are weird or that zeros is a weird time but they made groups in class and then you had the people who were really good in math grouping and then they I don't know if they named it like the back group but the group of people who needed more help aka the losers and I was part of that because I found it really hard and with math right yes and I think that grouping kind of messed with my head ever since because you get that label like oh I'm not I'm not good at this see I struggle I'm not good at this instead of going in it blankly and just trying it out and that also translate maybe I also have less feeling for it but definitely for math but just because it's so like good or bad then you start putting yourself in that box back in that group every time so even through high school I struggled with economics I struggled with math I needed to get into there and all these things and even up to this day I always immediately ask if somebody else can do the math or can do the financial stuff so I'm on the same page with math and financial stuff but did you also get these weird groups it wasn't very yeah in high school that is done but it's not necessarily I I don't know how to describe it but yeah there's some kind of those A-listers and then the next and then the next and then there's that I often often wonder the way each of the two of us is going to teach the kids math I mean when it comes to English and other sure we can find an auntie or an uncle logical reasoning and all those things you know science or things that require that you know read and understand but when it comes to calculations and the electiveness of it I'm not I don't even come close I just remember the physical one I sweat easily you're insecure about that yes especially because like Anna is not the worst country but it's really hot here so I sweat a lot and you know even now the fan is open the AC so I'm really hot like I'm checking if I was did you see I was checking if I was not if it wasn't coming through my shirt I do that a lot even when I buy clothes I think we'll use so I don't wear gray because if you sweat in gray you'll see it and honestly in Ghana people like to point out that you are sweating they like to point things out generally and it's so like I know I am sweating please stop humiliating me I am aware so now luckily I have face towels and stuff or handkerchiefs that I use but it makes you so self-conscious because I already feel it dripping on my back and then you are gonna be like oh you're sweating yeah I know I'm sweating I know please stop sweating it out it is too much do you have one more I have one more I think my last one was to be about my nose it also becomes oily very fast and then it becomes very shiny so the first thing you see if I'm walking in the sun is a big nose which is oily and it's like a landing pad with a mirror but I think people so I now notice it because you pointed out it's not oily now it's not I just feel like almost every you know few minutes I should just try and wipe if I have something I love your nose I really like it on your face I wouldn't want any other nose thank you you haven't seen any other nose on your face yes but I've seen other noses I think it's really cute thank you now people are probably going to notice all these my last one and Kamen actually contributed to it to the insecurity because I'm insecure about my dancing that's a skill it's not physical oh god or you had another skill we wanted to show no I just didn't want to come with it I don't know so I don't have a lot of rhythm I think the stereotype of white people not having rhythm is definitely applied to me and it's funny because I do like to dance I do like the joy it sparks I do like to I do like to you know listen to music sing along dance a little bit all these things and especially because you're a foreigner and Ganeans are big on dancing people like to invite you to dance but I always feel like they expect me to dance really well and I am not because I don't have rhythm it looks a bit off even though I am enjoying it so I did do some dance class because I just wanted to feel more comfortable in my skin so I did I did some African dance classes that was martial east Africa which really helped in here in Ghana I also have done a few classes but I get very shy when people kind of put me on the spotlight and I say I should dance but that's a general thing unless you're a really good dancer and you really like dancing and they want to film you and stuff and I get super uncomfortable yeah but that's them not wanting to see you dance and be comfortable that's them wanting to actually humiliate you it's not a good thing if somebody asks you to dance don't but then it's not like I don't want to dance I just don't like to be pointed out so dance when you want to dance not when somebody says dance and let me see dance because you're a foreigner people are like immediately when you do a few moves and I mentally freeze like no no no we're not supposed to look at it but it just dance but you will still be sometimes you're still pointed out anyway but do you want to tell people why you probably contributed to this insecurity I don't want to cause I'm done with that it's like years ago not years ago it's years ago when I said that it's terrible and I apologize like 7 billion times but every single chance Elaine gets she brings it up it's yeah so it's better for you to tell I'm not telling I made a comment about the dancing which wasn't supposed to happen it's probably coming from me who doesn't dance so he he says he's a bad dancer which I don't think so and he doesn't dance yeah but it's so weird because why is there a standard for dancing anyway but Kwameen said something like you don't want me to say Mon Dieu we've been had it in the previous video like this is like the third video this is coming out in yes because I'm insecure about it so you can see how it thinks of its impact word it's fine he said I look um how to say it nicely what other word can we use for it we can't cause there's no other way to say it it's just bad yeah like I let's just put it like you look like I'm physically incapable of dancing let's put it that way that's how you put it I think that's the best way to describe it politely correct way to describe it I don't remember the scene I don't remember I just remember the words like going into my heart like I will never dance again that was an immediate conclusion but of course I don't hate and I like to dance so I will keep on continuing to dance even though some people think I'm physically incapable of doing it oh sorry you didn't think I would bring it up it's fine please don't even like this video just subscribe if you can and let's call it a day but it's fine no it's not and I think it's good to talk about these things we're all sweating now it's okay this is the end of the video thank you for watching okay thank you for watching as you can see we don't plan our videos and we wanted to share this vulnerable one with you we are still fine it's just sometimes difficult to talk about these things right yes bye I'll die


Hey everyone! Welcome to this episode as an updated re-roll guide for new accounts or new players or perhaps players who want to create a second account. So this is the starting point of the re-roll because prior to this you're going to be taken through a long tutorial on how to use your characters. So let's start with how the re-roll looks like. Okay, so here we go. So you can select the recruiting type from here. So Fergie's going to give us a only one re-roll. So let's make this count. There we go. Press the button. So as you select your selection re-roll. Okay, you'll be availing these, what do you call this? Let's go back to that later. Finish this off. Okay, so for your select re-roll these are the characters or the heroes that you'll be getting. So this has been updated as for the fated ones. So you have to go after the fated ones because as a new player you have to have enough firepower in order to clear content because you'll be using them mainly in the chapters, the early stages. So from what I recommend, I would recommend number one, Radly. So Radly is a fated hero. So why you get Radly because Radly has two high damage single target skills. So I got Radly for my second account which is free to play. He really helped me a lot with the content because you'll need more damage as the game progresses. So he's my top recommend for your re-roll. The next that I would recommend for the re-roll, so this is my top three. So Radly's one, the next would be Uloom because Uloom, he's not at full potential when you get him now. But when you get Bathory, he is a good finisher as well in the chapters because he can break multiple guardian stones. But as a standalone without Bathory, he is good. He has provoke and he has high damage for a defender. So that he is my second choice if you really want to go that defensive route. And my third one, my third choice would be a new character. That is why I want to update my re-roll selection. So the next one I would suggest is Naomi. For the reason that Naomi again gets better with Dorkab but she can be a standalone character. And also for her S2, Millennial Light, she gives shared health to the group. And she increases her health as well and she has provoke as well. So that is why these three are my top three choices for the re-roll. And my honorable mentions, probably to round out a top five would be, let me find, here he is, Baraka. Baraka, if you expanded it to the top five, Baraka would be my number four. Because Baraka is good, number one because he is fast because of his speed, number two because he deals out high damage and his S1 resets his turn if he kills an enemy. So it's also good in the chapters when you're starting out. Very good character. It just needs to have support in terms of either reviving him or probably healing him. But he is a good start for your re-roll. The fifth one is to round out the top five. I think this one is a bit on the ify side because some might argue that she's not on the top five. But for me, she is, where is she? So here she is, so she's Maggie. So I got Maggie because from the list of five heroes, she's the only one with two AOE skills. So her S1 and S2 are both AOE skills. Her S2 is a burst skill and she requires not much of mana. So her S1 is only one mana and her S2 is a burst skill with three mana. So she rounds up the top five. I chose a top five because they're somehow hard to get when you're starting out. And they could really impact your start or how you level up, how you progress. So again, to round out the top three, so you have Radly, you have Uloom and Naomi. Four and five would be Baraka and Maggie. But I'd like to mention a couple of honorable mentions. In case you just want to get them because you want a good enough character. But these three are easy to get as soon as you progress in a game. So I'd rather you not get them because the odds of you getting them by summoning for them or summoning for other characters is a bit high. So their drops are a bit high. So number one would be Bernadette. So Bernadette is good. She's very good. Again, she's kind of similar to Maggie. Her S1 has a single target high damage with only one mana cost. And her S2 is a burst attack with three mana. So she is frost. She deals a lot of damage especially for accounts that are just starting. But her drop rate is kind of high. That is why I don't want you to summon her in the early stages of the game. My next recommended character is Sabrina. Again, she's kind of similar to Bernadette. S1 is a single target high damage skill. And S2 is a burst skill again with three mana. So they're kind of similar. Her drop rate is also high so don't try to summon for her unless you really want to get her. And lastly Anastasia is here because if you really need a healer in the early stages I would recommend you look for Kaya. Because Kaya no. 1 is easier to find because she is... Kaya is... Where's Kaya? Can't seem to find Kaya. Where is she? Anyway, Kaya is in... Here she is. So Kaya is very, very common in the game. And she is an excellent healer because of her S1 and S2 skills. These are AOE heals and with Kaya you get to heal most of the time. She rarely uses her basic attack. So I would rather you get Kaya as you progress through the game. But if you really want to get Anastasia, Anastasia for your reroll is also good. She has a very good burst heal for her S2. And sorry, for her burst heal for her S1, for S2 she deals a lot of damage as well with a required mana of 3. But again, if you're really just looking for a healer, I would suggest that you get Kaya instead of Anastasia. So that rounds up my honorable mentions. So let's try to take a look at selection recruit. So I'll try to have at least 10 pulls for this one. So that we could at least check our luck if we can reroll for either Red Lee, Naomi or Loom. So right of the bat we have a Gucci Cape with Belish which I don't really like. But let's move on. So as soon as you, for example, recruit and it don't like the group of heroes that you get. So just click on reselect. Do not click on selection completed because it will no longer reset your selection. So click on reselect then do you want to go back to selection? Yes. So again, it will just reroll for the next cup, next 10 heroes. So let's try to again summon for the top 3 that I mentioned. I'll give this only 10 pulls. So that's second one. Again reselect. So this will take a lot of time. I've seen people reroll for hours maybe just to get the ideal here that they want. Because in this reroll you cannot get the generals for this one. So here we already got Loom. So I'll stop because he belongs in my top 3. So again, just want to repeat myself. You cannot reroll for any generals here. So you're only reroll here all fated heroes below the general level. So again, if I was a new player I'd be happy with this pull. If you have any concerns about the reroll and if you want to ask more questions on the other fated heroes that you might want to get, please try to hit me up in the comments below. Also please do subscribe because this helps my channel. So this is The Warden and I'll see you in my next video. Warden out.

All right, so I'm at Mary's there's Mary and Mary and I met because she is one of my Subscribers slash viewers and we realized that we live in the same area and if you missed our Ben's video We went to the Goodwill Ben's and we did a challenge and then I was talking about needing someone to do consignment And she's like, I'll do it. So this is my second Load and it's a big one To Mary We got a brand new Nerf gun over there that she's gonna list. I think that'll do good on Mercari We got some bags and some really cool crafters things that you paint down here. So She wants to see what everything is. How are you feeling Mary?

So if anybody else wants to do consignment, I have more where this came from So if you are in Licking County, Franklin County, Muskingham County, Knox County, let me know I'll come drop you a load So, um, yeah, I'm standing in front of Mary's place right now And she is we're gonna get this stuff into her house and she's gonna start listing these items And I've told you guys before how we do it is um after fees we do a 50 50 split so um and basically I drop it off and She is in charge from here out. So all right All right We're here We are at the Goodwill bins guys the Goodwill outlet where you buy things by the pound All right, we are heading in we're gonna have some fun I've got on my glove and it's a good thing. I did wait until you guys see what I find Yuck, I'm still not sure what it was All right, there was one cart one cart left just sitting there waiting on me So you guys I just want to tell you I'm still learning the rules of the bends I was standing um in the aisle And I was like, why are these people lined up and nobody's shopping? And um, it must have been like they were getting ready to bring out another cart And they're like, all right, you need to move and I'm like, why do I need to move? And they're like, well, we're bringing in another cart and I'm like, well Can't I just stand here and you put the cart in front of me? You know, I'm thinking I've got first dibs, right? They're like, no ma'am these people are in line. You need to get behind them and I'm like, oh man so um Yeah, I got shooed away a few times and I'm like, well, can I move this way? And I just had to be explained the rules like two or three different times. It was kind of a bummer um But everybody was very very nice. I think this is my Maybe fourth time at the bends. Um, I think I've recorded every time I've come so uh Yeah, this I thought was pretty cool I saw this and then I saw the other one and I'm like that looks like it attaches to the top of that And it did it Is a happy meal toy actually and I did not know that And that top does not actually go to that dinosaur. I did learn that Um, I'm not sure if I'm gonna list that or not or if I'm gonna just donate it. I haven't quite decided I think it would sell eventually, you know, one of those I did Grab the little cookie monster. I always pick those up. Uh, I bundle those typically I find those a lot at garage sales. Um, and I pick them up at thrift stores And I do pretty well bundling them. So I will pick those up when I see them And they're super lightweight. So with the bends, it's like next to nothing Um, I do believe my bends is a dollar 59 a pound And again, I just want to say again that this challenge or Scavenger hunt I am doing with chosen goods reseller and dad planet Um, so please make sure that you go over and visit their channels. Um Dad planet has been doing this for a while. I think he's almost to 3 000 subscribers I know he is going to be, um, doing a giveaway when he hits 3 k So, uh, he's giving away a mystery box. So definitely make sure you go over and subscribe to him Um, I did pick up that express hat that is going to be my hat That's one of the items that I have to pick up for this challenge is a hat And it's not a big money item. It's a bread and butter. Um I do pick up two other hats during this bends run And actually one of them already sold. So maybe I picked the wrong item But the other item the other two were bread and butter also But I think that the express hat is going to be long tail. Now this item Ended up having really good comps and I did put it over on my other channel Um reseller testing products to show how it works So, um, that was a good pick up there. That one was good. It is a heavier item. So it was probably two or three dollars. I'm guessing Um, but blaze in the monster machine items. I do typically pick up now. That was not a small one That was a big one and it did have sound This item is um, a fisher price ferris wheel And it is more of a modern Reproduction, but that sold really fast. I did price it low to move it quickly and it sold for 10 dollars Okay, so the other person doing, um, this, uh, scavenger hunt is chosen goods reseller and she is new to youtube Um, and she's pretty new to reselling also. She started out doing like, um kind of some retail arbitrage, um Oh, what do you call it? I can't think of it. Uh Where you buy those boxes that have a wholesale ninjas or something like that Like the makeup and stuff like that and you know, it wasn't really her thing So she's starting to get into You know thrift stores and stuff like that. Okay that thing I bought and I couldn't get it to turn on So I just got rid of it. So that was a bad buy guys Um, so anyway, if you want to follow somebody who is brand new And learning youtube and learning she knows how to resell. She knows how to list She does a great job But kind of exploring, you know different things that she's reselling definitely check her out But I wanted to get somebody who was new in on this bends challenge So I decided to challenge her on the scavenger hunt and she's never been to the bends So her and her husband went so, um They had a good time and she got a lot of really good stuff. So, um, I kind of got a sneak peek I have no idea what dad planet got. So I'm definitely going to venture over to his video. But, um Carissa did show me some of her stuff. So, uh, she got some good stuff I was kind of like, man, I want to go to your bends. So I did find a bolo So, um, have you guys ever seen these little guys before? So these are v tech and you guys know that I love selling toys So these have lights and sounds when you push the little buttons Um on the front they start talking and they light up. So individually these are not super valuable. Um I will tell you that there were people lined up that had already gone through these bends And I don't know why they didn't grab those there were four of them right there all sitting right in that little pan and then, um I did put a few things in my cart and I did look up comps and I put a lot of stuff back So you're going to see me put things in my cart like that thing. I can't remember what it was, but I put it back But anyway, back to these v tech things. I put these, um, sorry, I'm getting sidetracked every time I see something I put these flippers in my cart and I comp them out and I put those back also um So the v tech I typically will pick those up at garage sales and I will bundle them There were four.  I can bundle four. I'll do okay with that But then I found two more And I'm like, okay, cool Uh, I'll keep looking And I did see some track. Uh, typically I'll just leave the track and I'll go for the vehicles So now I have six and I'm like That's awesome. But I'm wondering like why did nobody else pick these up? I mean, there were people there already lined up For the next round of bends So I wasn't sure why they passed on those because their carts were loaded up I mean, some of them had two carts and they passed on those So I don't know. Maybe they just that that's not their thing. I I don't know, but I like the v tech Um, I've done I've sold them before and do well with them. So Um, yeah, I'll take your v tech I was glad they passed on those All right, so wait just wait you guys It gets better. It gets better Okay, so there's all the track that I did not pick up and maybe I should have got the track I don't know, but you can see what's happening here as I dig Oh, that puzzle is going everywhere.  I went ahead and grabbed the light. That's kind of an accessory. It's not um the track I probably should have got the track and tried to sell it as like replacement track because there was a lot of it There were also some, um, there were some more cars There were also some of the bath toys from the show disney cars I have no idea why people left these behind jackpot. You guys I got 24 of those 24 And most of them worked So I went ahead and listed them at 125 dollars and I have them on sale for 93 dollars plus shipping So um or best offer But uh, yeah 24 of them. Everybody just left them behind. I have no idea why I'm so confused by this If anybody has an answer for me. Look I just kept grabbing them. It was like amazing. I'm like, this is fantastic I thought I was going to find like a hundred of them. They were just everywhere It was awesome I was super excited. So because they were all the same I lauded them together and that is my toy listing I just kept finding more. Yep Just kept finding more. I was uh, very thrilled with that Finding I almost grabbed that hippo. I have one of those listed Um, and he has not sold left yet. So I left it behind Um, I don't know if I had sold the hippo. I probably would have grabbed it But because he's still sitting I didn't want to have two sitting Now I did do a video on the hippo and the elephant And the video is doing pretty good on my reseller testing products channel. So, um Even if that doesn't sell quick, I'm at least getting some views over there and that's helping build up that channel So, um, if you guys want to subscribe to that channel, I think I'm at like 168 subscribers Um, even if you uh, are not really interested. I am trying to get my 1000 subscribers And my 4 000 hours. So if you guys want to help me out, that would be awesome Um, again, I'm just testing products over there And what I do is I test the products and then I link them to my ebay store So that when people um Are looking at my ebay listings I can put a video in the description of my ebay listing and that will show people that my item works And how it works. So, um, it's kind of like a little added layer of protection in my opinion So if somebody says they got the item and it doesn't work, I can say well, it works in the video so maybe it got damaged during shipment or Maybe somebody's less likely to file a claim, you know a false claim Saying it didn't work if there's proof that it works in the video I don't know it may deter someone may not, you know But uh, I just like the idea of having that video in the description I like seeing how things work before I purchase them if I don't know how they work. So Just something I've been trying to do more of it. It is time consuming. It does take more time All right, let's see and you guys the hardest part for me of this challenge the scavenger hunt I'm gonna call it a challenge because I had to buy clothes and I will tell you that I do not like to look at clothes at the bends I go for the hard goods. I don't even typically go to the clothes area When I go to the bends, I have no interest in finding clothing items and at the bends It's like a mound of mess. It's just stuff piled on top of each other and I do not want to mess with that Okay, so this Spanish thing it was sealed I even priced it kind of high But I put it in my cart And I meant to take it back out and I did I took it back out and I looked up comps And I meant to like throw it back in the bin And I threw it back in my cart like I don't even know what happened there. I I got home and I'm like How did I how did I buy this? I mean, I got out of the checkout over to where I was bagging it and I'm like, how did I do that? Like what just happened? And it was heavy. So I probably paid like two dollars for it. I don't know But um, yeah, that was a mistake. I did not mean to buy that but that's okay I mean, I'll probably make a buck or two if it ever sells. Who knows but um, Walt waltz on that one Kind of funny. It's good for the video. I mean, I can laugh at myself We all do things like that where we uh get home or We leave the storm or like did I really buy that like how did that even happen? This mickey mouse was kind of cool, but um, I don't know if he worked or not And he was a little bit He needed spot cleaned and I don't know if he would have cleaned up. So I just left him behind There's a little monkey backpack. That was kind of cute So at this point what I have my toy is that all I have In my hat Again, there were two sets of those but they didn't comp out very high and I couldn't tell if everything was there or if they were used So I just decided not to mess with those Lots and lots of stuff Lots of junk. That's for sure It's quite the experience the bends I do enjoy it. I do. I really do it is fun My husband's never been and I really want him to uh experience this sometimes so Um, I don't know if he would like it though. Honestly. I just don't know That is a train set, but I didn't really see any trains So I didn't um, I just left it So as I'm going through the video, let me know in the comments if you guys see anything that you would have picked up that I passed on I think I've sold a total of three things from this hall so far. I've honestly been putting off, um Doing the voiceover. I don't know. Um, I wanted to get everything listed and um, I was trying to decide, um, exactly how I wanted to, uh How I wanted to do everything with this like Did I want to, uh, do screen shares? Did we want to just do the six items or did we want to include items that were, um Not a part of the challenge or the scavenger hunt? I'm like, let's just if we listed it Let's just share those items. I mean it doesn't hurt to share everything, right? I think it helps Helps everyone learn, right? If you guys haven't seen the video, um, my husband went to an estate sale and, uh he was, uh I don't know if he was checking out or what he was doing in the estate sale owner, not owner The guy running the estate sale was like, hey, you want all this stuff? Uh for ten dollars and my husband didn't like respond right away and He's like, you know what? Do you want it all for five dollars? It was like a box of stuff And I did get this stocking. This is my Christmas item And um, so my husband's like five bucks. Okay, and uh So my husband I walked outside the other day and he was sitting outside looking through a box of stuff and I'm like, what's that? And he told me the story and I was like, well, can I unbox it? On a video and he's like, yeah, if you want and I'm like, yeah, that'll be great for my new channel sourcing with bolo buddies. So, um I messaged chrissa chosen goods reseller and I said, hey, do you want to do an unboxing with me? And she's like, okay, so, um We did a lie not a live stream, but like a pre-recorded video where we, uh unboxed this, uh Five dollar box of like vintage and antique items that my husband got for five dollars There was some decent stuff in there. I mean, there's some sellable items. He'll definitely make some money, but Five bucks.  So if you haven't seen that that is over on my new channel sourcing with bolo buddies So definitely go check that out All right, let's see Okay, so we've got the christmas item now you guys saw that And that was um, it's not vintage or anything But it was disney and it had the little clock also And I think you can remove that and it's could be like an ornament. It was kind of cute I think it'll sell probably closer to christmas, but I do sell christmas all year long. So It could sell sooner I will definitely keep you guys posted if any of these items sell But i've sold three items, but only one of them is from the scavenger hunt And actually The item that sold had a defect and I almost donated it. Oh my goodness you guys. What is that? Okay, so honestly, I think it was a piece of chocolate like one of those buck eyes where it's like a Peanut butter chocolate. Oh, I don't know but yuck, right? I'm glad I didn't stick my hand in it That is part of the reason I wear gloves But mostly I wear gloves. Um, I wear the kind that are like gardening gloves So um, sometimes there's a glass and like broken ornaments and stuff like that because I don't want to get like my hand cut So I do wear a glove on one hand and then I hold my phone with the other and record Okay, so I'm digging through the clothes and as I said, I am not a fan of selling clothing anymore So the last thing I wanted to do was dig through these clothes But I'm doing it for the scavenger hunt But first I'm going to go back to the hard goods it looks like It's so funny. I did not want to be at the clothes I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna do it for you guys DVDs What else do we have That was a weird DVD. It was like a bat and a chipmunk Caught my eye a dirty pan So much stuff I don't know what those green things are There's a dino. I do like finding dinosaurs. Some of the older ones can sell for decent money Always look at the bottom of the dinosaurs for markings. A lot of them are dated Or they have the brand On them. Okay, you guys so here he is His hands are supposed to be attached And they're supposed to be a heart. It's like a valentine's day plush However, the heart was missing but I would tell you that thing was funny. His mustache wiggled He is over on my reseller testing products page if you want to see how he wiggled and what I think he's saying can't touch this But he was a hoot and he sold really fast. I think he went internationally But ten dollars and thirteen cents I was thrilled to have him gone He was a part of the scavenger hunt and he sold fast. So I was like, whoo, whoo So, yeah, I mean I about donated him that dvd was sealed. So I went ahead and picked that up Anytime a dvd is sealed. I mean that's kind of a no-brainer because they weigh like nothing I know a lot of them are complete bread and butter, but um with the amount that they weigh it's kind of like Um, you can lot them and uh Some of the stuff that I'm gonna lot or um, like there were some toys that I threw in my cart Those things I I just won't I won't pull up listings for because I haven't done anything with them yet Like that I think the cookie monster and I think there was a little yellow toy Let's see. I can't oh, okay. I remember I was trying to think what else I had I think we're coming up on some socks Yes, I said socks Can you believe it? I bought socks You'll see you'll see I had to At first I bought them for my husband and now you guys are thinking you bought socks for your husband at the bins I did What is that 10 000 bc that looks kind of interesting All right, let's see Oh and ow you guys And ow That's my mascot and ow all right Here we go We have some socks right there wrangler socks 11 25 and some will work socks for 15 Um buyer pays shipping on those they have not sold yet. I did have an offer on one pair that I did not take um I went ahead and bought those number one because I thought maybe my husband would want them for work But he declined um and I went ahead and listed them. So, um I figured why not everybody needs socks, right? And I did find a clothing item That was not it and there were some clothing items that I saw that I probably would have picked up If I was still doing clothing, but that's not really my thing anymore So, um, I did pick up one item for the scavenger hunt And I did pick up a linen. Can you guys believe it? Uh, there was a lucky brand pair of jeans And I saw an express a re-rock pair of jeans and this is like a little puffer jacket I don't know if that was down or not, but um I mean it was Quilted, I don't know if that's in style or not. I am so out of the loop on clothing I just got to be honest with you guys. I don't really know what's in or what's Out anymore. I don't think lucky brand does as good as it used to um But if you can get stuff cheap enough, I'm sure that there are still things that um You know people like certain styles and you know Like There's things that I still wear Because I like them that might not be in style, you know what I mean, but I like it because I still like it Even though it's not in style. I'm old, but I like what I like, you know All right There's a car stuck in the purses So there was somebody going through the purses and they were looking through every purse for I'm guessing money or I don't know. I'm assuming money. So if you find money in a purse Or a bag Can you keep the money? How does that work? Do you Are there rules for that? Do you have to buy the purse and then you get to keep the money? Or can you just put the money in your pocket and you don't have to buy the purse? Like does anybody know the rules at the bends? I'd really like to know the answer to that if anybody can um Put that in the comments. That would be That would be great. I'd really like to know Because they were looking through it like if they found it they were going to like walk out of there with $100 I don't know. It was interesting for sure It was like they came to the bends to look through the purses for money that seemed like that was why they were there They I don't even know if they had a cart I mean, they must find it. So I have sold that doll before that guy right there. I've sold him And I probably should have bought him. But did you see his hand?  So Um, the necklace that he had on That's how I knew it was him and he had that um Blonde like surfer dude hair I thought maybe that was a Vera Bradley at first, but um, I couldn't find a tag That's kind of cute Kind of cute Guess what I bought today I bought some more of my visor hats my uh Beanie visor hats that I wear you guys that I'm Kind of my signature hats. I got some different colors. I feel like I'm Kind of sporting different colors now. So I got a few more colors. Oh, that one was kind of cool Maybe I should have got that hat right there. Did you see it? The red and the white kind of had the Cool colors. Okay. So you saw me just move. I got kicked out of where I was they were bringing out another Ben and taking that one Okay, so this flight jordan hat. I don't know I was kind of Drawn to that one, but it was kind of stretched out. So I just disclosed it I did buy it and I put it up for auction and it sold for the minimum bid of 14 dollars and 99 cents This one, um, I think it's new old stock I have it up for, uh For sale right now. I went ahead and bought it. It's the browns. I don't know if that's good or bad I do not follow sports, but it seemed to be in good condition. So I went ahead and grabbed it I don't know what that bag is right there. Those are kind of cool colors Might have missed something I'm sure I did. I'm sure I missed a lot You guys let me know. All right, where are we going? Oh, yeah, we're going we got to find a linen This coat was kind of nice the plaid I can't wait to see what dad planet and chosen goods reseller got like I saw what she got But I want to see like the listings popped up, you know with uh the white background and how she priced things and You know, I want I want more details more detail Like what things comped out at not just what they got. I want to see the details all right, so I have a clothing item and a linen. I still have to show you guys Bolo buddies at the bins I think those were no, I don't know This green um was a nice, uh color I think I probably could have sold that if I was still selling a lot of clothing or wanted to sell clothing Uh, it was kind of a fun, uh color. Okay. Here it is. This is my clothing item Uh, it's vintage. It's a size medium It's called breakaway by lamp lighter. I think I don't know. I just thought it was really really, uh fun It's got like a little snag at the bottom It's not horrible Um You see it It can probably be trimmed. It's not awful I just thought it was really I liked it. So I bought it. So that's my clothing item Um And honestly like it was right on top, but I didn't have to dig a whole bunch. So I was like, yes Vintage clothing right on top Done now. I'm looking for a linen There's another pair of re-rock express So I'm familiar with re-rock. I had a pair of re-rocks that I loved back in the day I don't think they're as popular now That is real fur. I think but uh You could see it was damaged I don't know. What do you guys think should I have bought that if it was damaged like that? Can people repair it? I don't know I'm a lazy reseller sometimes. I don't like messing with things that need cleaned or that are damaged or That take work like I'm a I'm a sell it as is sold as is As is as seen all right So what I ended up getting is a throw And when you see it Let me know what you think. I really like the colors But I would be inclined to think that some people might think the colors are a little bit Ugly I kind of think I should have got this little sweater. I think it's kind of cute I think it was like um a size small And I think it might be stained now that I'm looking at it I really like um, okay. So here's the little uh granny square afghan. I got Aren't the colors kind of cool. It's like an orange and a green I don't know. It's okay. I guess maybe it's not as oh, we're back to that flannel jacket that I saw earlier I must have missed that green All right, you guys I spent $32 and 48 cents and I really really really challenged myself today. Um I Got Of course the toys were not a challenge um But for this challenge We're gonna go with one plus item. So this is gonna be my plus item A toy item and I'm gonna lot up I think all of these and one big lot and that is gonna be my toy listing Because I got a ton of these Um, I'm not including these these will be a separate listing. I'm talking about the v-tech items The next item is a hat and I got this express hat that's new with tags But I also got these two hats which I'm not sure which one I'm gonna pick. I think I should pick right now Oh man, I forgot to take this out of my cart and it was heavy Oh shucks um Which one should I pick? I think I'm gonna go with the express hat because it's new attacks A christmas item So this is what I got for my christmas item. I don't think it's anything special, but it is disney. So That's my christmas item And then a clothing item which you guys was a challenge for me, but I went ahead and picked this And it does have a little flaw, but it is vintage and it's very very cool Kind of a christmasy sweater.  Okay you guys I'm just gonna show you guys what else is in my cart my plan is to lock these up I don't know if they're like bath toys or what And again, this was an accident. I looked up prompts and they were not good. So I meant to put that back This is kind of cool I don't Oh cute it moves. So I can put that on my Testing product page. This is definitely cool. And I think it does something I meant to test this and I didn't So that might be a lump lump lump lump I got these socks for my husband So those are a personal purchase And I don't know I thought this looked unique with this little uh thing on the top And this had it also maybe they sit on its back I don't know So yes a miscellaneous stuff So those other items don't count the only thing that count are the items I showed you The hashtag for this is going to be bends six hashtag bends six Be sure to check out the description of the video like comment share and subscribe. Thanks for watching Let's get started


A groundbreaking collaboration between the Ministry of Agriculture, the World University Service of Canada, and A&E Agrochemicals has seen the initiation of a agrochemical inputs trial across four demo plots in St. Lucia. The objective of this partnership is to explore the efficacy of these inputs as an alternative to traditional chemical fertilizers and pesticides with a focus on promoting sustainable farming practices. The country coordinator of the WUSC Sustainable Agriculture in the Caribbean Project, Dr. Nadia Paket Anselm, expressed her satisfaction with the initial results observed on the watermelon farm demo plot, emphasizing the opportunity it provides for stakeholders to witness the benefits of agrochemical inputs. She explains that based on the results, the farmers have experienced an enhancement in productivity and have adopted a more economically viable method of farming. What we are hoping to happen here is have the testimony from the farmers who are using these products, because we heard some testimonies earlier on from, you know, 7 tons to 14 tons or 7 truckloads to 14 truckloads of watermelons being harvested from these fields. And here we are trialing watermelons, but the other areas we are trialing are other crops like cucumbers. And of course, if we can have through the use of this product in a sustainable manner and through the use of this product in a cost-effective manner, the farmers can use this product, which is formulated here nationally in St. Lucia by a St. Lucia young entrepreneur. We anticipate to see an augmented input in productivity as well as augmented output in aesthetics and quality of the product that is harvested. The farmer would have testified that he's received the product in a shorter span of time, reduced by two weeks. That means a lot because if you could use this very same input in terms of cost of production and you could increase productivity and have a better product in St. Lucia, then it means quite a bit. Director of Agricultural Services, Dr. Aria King-Snack, expressed the Ministry of Agriculture's enthusiasm for this collaboration and the government's commitment to supporting initiatives that sustainably enhance the agriculture sector. She states that the partnership between the Ministry of Agriculture, Whisk Caribbean and A&E agrochemicals set a commendable precedent for fostering collaboration and innovation in pursuing a more sustainable and resilient agriculture sector. And all of these things are things that we are looking to do to help make or cushion the blue that the farmers are now facing with the increased cost of production, the increase in inputs and so on. So this project comes at a good time. Again, as I said, we're trying to ensure that St. Lucia remains food secure. We're trying to ensure that our farmers, their livelihood continues with all of what is happening in the world, with the war, with COVID-19 and all of the other components that are affecting our agricultural sector. As the demo plots continue to be monitored and evaluated, stakeholders anticipate valuable insights that will aid in shaping future agricultural practices in St. Lucia. From the Communications Unit of the Ministry of Agriculture, I am Anicia Antoine reporting.


YouTube Team keep it clean What's going on? It's a engraving here with another video This has been Crazy day. I appreciate y'all rocking with us. I know it's been a lot of videos But I didn't tell y'all get I gave y'all for warning that it would be a lot of videos and it has been But I appreciate y'all man y'all y'all have gotten to 19,000 subscribers So that's pretty cool still a still a really small channel But y'all uh, I'm very grateful for that and then we all together should be very grateful for this is team keep it clean And again, like I say, I'm a Ravens fan But we we talk about everybody on here because this channel is for everybody. It's not just for Ravens fans It's for everybody And one of the teams that a lot of Ravens fans don't like to talk positively about Are the Patriots and the Patriots um They've been super Over these past couple days, they made like 63 trades for offensive linemen One of those trades was with the Ravens with the Patriots gave a fourth round pick And they received a Jermaine Eleanor in the Raven six round pick And and they they've made plenty more but Patriots have been super active in the market looking for offensive linemen Now another market they were super active in has been with wide receivers They of course drafting the Cure Harry in the first round or they sounded the Marius Thomas. They signed Who was Dantrell in them, but they cut him they signed Cam Meredith, but he's on the PUP list I believe And now after the 53 man roster he I don't think he's eligible to come back until after week six Because if you only if you start the regular season on PUP, then you can't come back for it at least six weeks um They still got a Philip Dorsett and of course they they signed the Marius Thomas and Of course, they still have Julian Edelman. I don't think Edelman leaves till Brady leaves. I'm thinking Brady leaves till Belichick leaves So anyway, and Gronk said otherwise, but with that I Said in a video before too I said that um I think that this would be the year that Tom Brady I think this year Tom Brady would actually throw more touchdowns than Patrick Mahomes does this year and The reason I say that is because one day this system is amazing This system is just it's a beautiful thing and I know a lot of people say oh Brady's a system quarterback He's a system quarterback and that he is but at the same time Why try to fix a system that's not broken. It just doesn't make sense They plug in play different guys there and while those different guys have had some success there those different guys haven't had Super Bowls Those different guys. I mean a lot of those different guys have only been put there for a minimal amount of time besides my castle And I think that year they went like 11 and five But think the Jets and who else the Jets and like two other teams in their division that were also 11 and five So Patriots didn't make it but anyway, um, I Really thought that this would be and it's still it still is and still can be But I really thought this was the Tom Brady and the Patriots their most talented group of receivers group of passcatchers that he's ever had I really did and Just the athleticism and Josh Gordon. How do I always forget about Josh Gordon? I Always forget about Josh Gordon Shout out to the people that comment while they're watching the video and they put oh, what about Josh Gordon?  It's fine He has probably his most talented group of wide receivers now again Like I said before Mars was his best receiver ever that he had But this is his best group of wide receivers that he's ever had And I think it's gonna go off But now they're one receiver short or not even short because they're just one less receiver one dead down one receiver Because they let the Marriots time is gone. They released them. They cut them. He said hey, thanks, but no, thanks and That was a little shocking to me. I um, I didn't see that coming. I Really didn't see that coming. I Am But ain't he just catch like the touchdown the other night, too. I Just Hey, maybe they just felt like he didn't fit in Maybe he Wasn't doing it the Patriot way. I don't know. I really don't know But the Marriots Thomas is now back to being a free agent He doesn't even had to go through waivers because he's been in the league long enough So he becomes a free agent immediately So somebody else decides they want to give him a shot. Boom. He's good to go He's good to go and the thing about him now is that he's healthy He's healthy Lot of these Patriots receivers was banged up The Marriots Thomas have been a little banged up earlier. Can't marry it still banged up Josh Gordon when he was uh He was just out But now he's reinstated so good for him But I believe no he has conditional reinstated. I still don't need doesn't he still have to re reapply for To be reinstated to the league to actually play come week one Don't they play the stealers week one? I Think they do I feel like they do on like Sunday night football. I don't know Um, I was gonna check the schedule where I feel like it's gonna take too long I got an iPhone 6 plus and yeah anyway So yeah, Patriots, I mean, it's still gonna be fine and I Think the top right the top break is gonna enjoy this cast of this cast of receivers that he's I mean He always enjoys every cast of receivers that he got but this one they can be really special for It can be really special for Like you got Josh Gordon Who can run any route whether it's a deep play with a short pass and make it a deep play?  He can be a slide guys a slide He can move them around different places or as a wide receiver Sonny Michelle who can both run and catch passes out of the backfield They still have James white to I think Man Philip Dorsett take the top off defense like can't marry it if he gets healthy Another one man This big body guy makes some stuff happen They are and didn't kill Harry too another sort of big body guy box out a corner back Don't fade right in the back of the end zone watching work like they got some people now That way my Ravens gonna have quite the test come week night. Oh, but anyway, they got some people So yeah, while it would have been even more the rich get richer and notice could have had the Marius Thomas They released him for a reason They released him for a reason so it's kind of scary Knowing that they released him knowing that they could have been that much more of a powerhouse had they not released him So it's definitely got to be a little more to the story, but it is what it is. So he's a free agent So we'll see where he goes next anyway Maybe the Titans they just traded their wide receiver to the Browns Um But no, I'm not the Titans because they traded way wide receiver that what means they didn't want that wide receiver So anyway too much speculate going on right now. I need to take a rest team keep it clean I love y'all and just like the Marius Thomas with the Patriots. I'm out


Hello, Yukon 2A209. Yes, this is Candy Madsen. Come on, Mellard. Stop pouting. Enjoy yourself. It's earlier than you think. Moderate Christmas time is delightful. Carmel is most enchanting. Salinas I enjoy. But to haul us way over to some unexplored cannibal country is too much. Did you hear that, Rembrandt? Cannibal country, he calls it. Man it, me boy. This may come as a shock, but San Juan Batista was founded by the Franciscan fathers in 1797. I remember it as though it were yesterday.  Mellard can't stand this wonderful air. He misses the gas fumes of the big city. That's not that candy, but I do want to get back. Relax, Max. You had a chance to take two days off to make the most of them. What's the name of this town again? San Juan Batista. You'll love it, Mellard, dear, really. The mission, all the old buildings still standing. No, you'll adore it, honestly you will. Look, Rembrandt, old friend, I may like a thing, but I'll be hanged if I'll adore it. As you will, minion. How much farther, can't it? We're just entering the town now. I thought we'd take a look at the mission first. Okay. Hey, this is a cute little town at that. That's my boy. I knew you'd warm up once I got you over here. You know, strictly from a police angle, you might be interested in knowing that Joaquin Murrieta visited here more than once. So did three-fingered Jack. Shootin' arn, I'll get the varmints. Take it easy, hop along. We're approaching the mission. For golly sakes. It's a big one. Isn't it beautiful, Mellard? And don't you get a whole flood of thoughts going through your head when you look at it? Ah. With a little imagination, one could almost see the native Indians walking back and forth, coming into town for the evening vespers. I only hope the mission's open. Let's find out. Good idea. I'll see one of those fathers around the front, Candy. I can ask him. Thank you, Ducky. Yes, let's go. Good afternoon, Father. Mm-hmm. Oh. Oh, good afternoon, young lady. Can you tell me if the mission is open this afternoon? Oh, yes, most certainly. Do forgive me if I appear somewhat startled. I was picking these red berries, and I failed to hear you drive. I'm sorry, Father. Oh, that's quite all right. I fear my thoughts were wandering. Pardon me. May I introduce Mr. Watson? How do you do, Father? And this gentleman is Lieutenant Mellard. Oh, are you, sir? Lieutenant? No, not military, Father. I'm with the San Francisco police. The police? No, Father. We're not here on business. I was wondering. I thought for a moment that Father Phillip might have reported me. Reported you? For what, Father? At lunchtime, I made a frightful mistake. By error, I ate his apple. Right under his very nose, too. Oh, pardon me. I am Father Paulino. I'm very happy to know you, Father. My name is Candy Madsen. I have some free time. I would be pleased to show you about. May I? We'd be delighted, Father Paulino. I think we can start with the yard. It gets dark so early this time of year. Father Paulino, Father Paulino. Hi, it's Miguel Torres. What could be wrong? Oh, Father Paulino, it is there. Miguel, my son. What is it? What has happened? Oh, the most awful thing you ever hear of. Vicente. He just shoot himself. Merciful heaven. Is he badly hurt, Miguel? Oh, I think... I think he is dying, Father. No, no, no, no. The poor boy. Where is he? At his house. Excuse me, Miss Madsen. I must leave immediately. Would my car be of any help, Father? The car. Yes, thank you. From Studio A in San Francisco's Radio City, the national broadcasting company presents Candy Madsen, Yukon 2-8209. Tragedy in the sleepy little California mission town of San Juan Batista. But it wasn't the first time. If you look around the side of the mission, you'll see that the place marks the mass grave of 12,000 Indians who died in a smallpox epidemic years ago. San Juan has seen knifings, too, and other shootings. It had lived a rowdy life in the dim years gone by, and obviously the rowdiness was still alive in a minor sort of fashion. We got in the car, and with Miguel directing us in broken English and Latin gestures, we made our way out on a dirt road about three miles outside of town near the granite quarry.  We went inside, and there was the prone form of a Mexican boy of about 21 or two. There he is, Father. Is he all right? I don't know, Miguel. I'll have to see. He's gone, isn't he, Father? Yes. May his soul dwell eternally in peace. He is dead. Miguel, listen to me. His flesh is cold, yes, but his soul still lives. Do you understand what I'm saying, my son? Yes, Father Paulino. Wait a moment. Mallard, here where he was shot. The sentry knocked himself off. He certainly did it the hard way. You're not kidding. Miss Mattson, would you mind very much if we brought the body back in with us to the mission? I'm afraid we can't, Father. Would you step over here? I have something to tell you. Certainly, Miss Mattson. You were a look of concern. Is there something wrong? I'm afraid there is, Father Paulino. What do you mean? It looks very much as though this wasn't self-inflicted. What? You don't mean that? Miss Mattson, are you sure of what you're saying? Reasonably so, Father. You see, a gun held at close range leaves powder marks. The sentry's wound is as clean as a whistle. Well, I... I don't know what to say. I'm sorry, Father, but that's why we can't remove the body. We'll have to call the sheriff's office in Hollister. Can you tell me where I can find a phone? Yes, there's one at the mission. If you don't mind, I'll stay here. Father Paulino was right. He had work to do. The ecclesiastical kind. And he did it in a simple and impressive way. San Juan Batista, with a population of a little over 600, and we run plop into a murder. Mallard said he'd go back to the mission and make the call, and left. 45 minutes later, the under-sheriff of San Benito County drove up with Mallard. He asked the standard questions, but learned nothing. We went over the house with a fine tooth comb, but we came up with a blank. There being nothing else to do at the moment, the men put the body in the sheriff's car and he drove back to Hollister, and we returned to the mission. Would you care to take a stroll about the garden who's Miss Matson? It's most peaceful, makes a wonderful place for clear thinking. Well, yes, Father, I'd love to. Mallard. You go ahead, Candy. I promise the sheriff I take a look around town for him. Oh, sure. Want to come along with me, Rembrandt? Yes, I believe it will, if you don't mind, Candy. No, no, not at all. One thing before you go, you will be my guests for dinner, won't you? That's the most gracious of you, Father. What do you think, Candy? I think it would be charming. OK, we'll see you back in a little while then. This is a tragic thing, Miss Matson. The sentry was a splendid lad and a good Christian. I know how you must feel, Father. I never could understand why there must be things of this sort in the world, not only between individuals, but countries and nations as well. It is hard to comprehend the more I try to reason, the more confused I become. About Vicente, Father, who do you suppose could have done it? I don't know. I really don't. How about Miguel? What? Oh, no, Miss Matson. Why, he and Vicente were like brothers. Brothers sometimes quarrel, you know. Not in this case. Miguel is a good boy. Why, he works here at the Mission. You'll pardon me, Father, but in my business I find I have to be doubtful at times. What is your business, Miss Matson? I'm a private investigator, Father. Oh, very curious. Yes, I suppose it is, but in a sense you're a policeman too, Father. I? Yes. You police the soul, don't you? Ride herd on the thoughts and actions of men? Why, yes. I'd never thought of it that way before. Yes, in a sense, I suppose I do wear a badge. I wear the badge of righteousness, the star of God. Father Polina was a wonderful man. As we walked about the Mission gardens, he spoke of many things, but in parallels, all connected in some way with the killing of poor Vicente. The time passed swiftly, I was so engrossed in listening to the kindly voice of the man, and before I knew it, Mallard and Rembrandt had returned, and it was time for dinner. He still did the cooking and waited on the table. Dinner was a masterpiece of simplicity, and if it hadn't been for the tragedy of the afternoon, I would have been enjoying a serenity I'd never known before. Did Vicente live out there all by himself, Father? Yes, the house belonged to him. He's a descendant of one of the original families of San Juan. His great, great, great grandfather owned one of the largest branches in California. It stretched from here to the Pacific Ocean. And that's a lot of property? Indeed. You see, it was given to him by the King of Spain under one of the original Spanish land grants. I understand there still are some in existence. Yes, I believe there are, but they've all been chopped up and sold in much smaller parcels. Did Vicente work, Father? Oh, yes, he was a good worker seasonally in the artichoke fields and the lettuce fields. In the off-seasons, he did odd jobs about the town. Speaking of town, Father, do you know a woman named Rose Taylor? Why do you ask that? Do you? Yes. Why do you mention the name? There's a little bar down the street. Yes, I know the frailties of mankind. The fellow who runs the place says there's been talk about Vicente being kind of loco over the Taylor girl. I'd heard something of the sort, too. I was going to speak to him about it on Sunday. How long has she been here, Father? She arrived about two months ago. I'm afraid she's been a disturbing influence on our little village ever since. Did you talk to her, Mallard? No. Where does she live, Father? In a small cottage over on Second and Polk Street. I think we ought to take a little walk over there, don't you, Mallard? Right, is right. Cupcake, I dropped by her place before dinner, but she wasn't in. Oh, you know where it is then. That's good. Please don't think it's rude, Father, but it's something we have to follow through on. I understand, Miss Mattson. We got up from the table and went outside the mission. We pulled our coats closely about us, and little jets of steam came from our mouths as we breathed the crisp evening air. We'd only gone about a dozen steps or so, and we were stopped by a voice from behind. Please say your Rita Mattson, Senor. Well, it's Miguel. What is it, Miguel? Is something wrong? I hear you're talking inside. You are going over to see Senorita Taylor? That's right. Oh, please, no. This Senorita Taylor, she is a good girl. She would not hurt anyone. That's not what Father Polino seems to think. Oh, the good Father, he does not know much about the outside. All his life, he live in the mission. He is, how would you say, is secluded? The good Father may be secluded, Miguel, but I have a strong hunch he knows more about what's going on around here than anyone in town. Oh, but please, you believe me? Senorita Taylor, she is a good person. Look, Miguel, you want to find out who killed Vicente, don't you? Oh, she, she... Well, that's what we're trying to do. Now, you be a good boy, Miguel, and don't get yourself all in the stew. We left Miguel and walked over a couple of blocks to Second and Polk Street. We found the cottage and saw a light in the front window. Mallard knocked, and what opened the door would have been a delight on any movie screen, if you like your beauty the hard way. Rose Taylor, it was obvious, could raise an awful lot of havoc with the local Swains. Something you wanted? Yes, we'd like to talk to you for a moment, if you don't mind. Yes, I do mind. I'm kind of busy. I'm sorry, Miss Taylor, but you'll have to un-busy yourself. This is the police. Police, always the police. Why can't you let me alone? You've been in trouble before. Nothing serious. Might be this time. You know a kid named Vicente? Yeah, I heard what happened.  They have a yen for knifings and shootings. Don't they just? This is Lieutenant Mallard. He tells me he was by here this afternoon, and you weren't in. That's right. I went into Salinas to do some shopping. We can prove that, can we? Absolutely. Well, well, what have we here? A very cozy little 32 revolver, and also nicely cleaned and oiled. You always keep it this immaculate, Miss Taylor? Certainly. When some character gets too much tequila under the belt, you don't know what's going to happen. And a suitcase on the bed. Are you getting ready to go somewhere? Wait. If you're trying to make out that I knocked off Vicente, you're just whistling Dixie in four flats. Look, a telegram. If you'll take the time and the courtesy to read it, you'll find that my sister in Los Angeles is a very sick girl. I was going down to spend a week or so with her. What is this, a convention hall? Come in. Buenos noches, senorita. Miguel, beat it. I'm busy. I am sorry. I am sorry. I have a message for senorita Matzen and for you, senor. Father Palino sent me. A message? What is it, Miguel? The sheriff in Hollister just called on the telephone. He said to tell senor Maler that the bullet that killed Vicente was from a .32 caliber gun. From San Francisco, the national broadcasting company is presenting Candy Matzen, Yukon 2-8209. Well, now, a .32 slug had killed Vicente and Miss Taylor owned a .32 gun. It looked practically tailor-made. However, I've seen coincidences like this before that have gone up in thin smoke. Maler'd plucked the rose and asked her to return to the mission. And right there, I got me a king-sized idea. I excused myself, went to the little bar, and from the owner, I found out where the local banker lived. Five minutes later, I was in his living room talking to him, a gentleman named Banta. Yes, it's terrible. I only heard about it a half hour ago. Vicente was a splendid lad. That's what I've heard. Well, the reason I'm here, Mr. Banta, is to inquire about his financial status. You any banking at all? Oh, yes. Up to about five or six weeks ago. Uh-oh. Can you tell me more? Well, he had a savings account of approximately $2,800. Suddenly, he began making withdrawals. $200, $300 at a time. Yesterday, he made another withdrawal. He'd left a total of $400 in his account. Well, what do you know about that? He said he was having trouble with his crops this year, the rain and all that. Mm-hmm. What about Miguel Torres? Now, that's a very strange thing. He had an account of $900. That's practically gone, too. I assumed he was helping his friend Vicente. I smell a very well-shaped rodent. Name of Taylor. Thanks, Mr. Banta. You've been a great help. Things seem to be taking shape. It looked like the old story of a no-good playing both ends against the middle. Both ends being Vicente and Miguel. The no-good rose Taylor. Scattered pieces of the puzzle were beginning to fall in place. Father Polino. At first, I couldn't believe it. And I wondered what his reaction would be. Next step, the bartender at the village pub. I walked in and caught him at a good time. The place was empty. Good evening. What can I do for you? A package of cigarettes, please. Sure. How are these? No, no, the others, if you will. All right. There you are. Anything else? Mm-hmm. Information. What do you want to know? Miguel Torres and a kid named Vicente. Did they come in here often? Who are you? Private investigator here. My merit badge. Yeah, that's a new one, the lady cop. Ah, the world is ever-changing, Buster. Now the answer. Yeah, they used to come in, but once a week. Usually on Saturday nights. Drink much? Nah, good kids, both of them. When were they in here last? Well, let's see. Yeah, night before last. Any arguments? Ah, they're so self-spoken, those kind of guys. It's hard to tell. But now that you've mentioned it, I think there was a bit of a rhubarb going on. Who was taking the lead? Torres. I gather he was sort of griped about something. Not too loud, not much fire. That's when it gets dangerous. And they weren't drunk. Nope. And I can spot a lush at 40 paces. They each had a beer and left. Thanks, Mr. Here, buy yourself a cup of Christmas cheer. Well, thank you. Click? Another piece of the puzzle in place. And all roads led right back to the mission. With the exception of the late Vicente, we had the full cast of characters front stage center. And a neat little bit of intrigue it was, too. As I drew near, the warm lights of the mission were streaking through the windows, contrasting greatly to the thoughts that were going around in my head. I walked in. Father Paulina was sitting over his desk, his head buried on his arms. Mallard was leaning back in a chair, watching Rose Taylor, who in turn was smoking a cigarette and pacing the room. Rembrandt was reading a copy of the National Geographic. All heads snapped to me as I entered. Why a cupcake? Have fun? Of sorts. What's new here? Well, waiting for the sheriff from Hollister. He's gonna book the tailor lady on suspicion of murder. That way he can hold her. I think I have somebody else for him to hold. Father Paulina? Yes, Miss Madsen. I think you know what I'm about to say. Yes. Yes, I think I do. Where is he? In the next room. I'll call him. Miguel, my son. See, Father. Come in here, please. See? Miss Madsen wants to talk to you. You're here in the mission now, Miguel. You're standing right under the cross. You can't lie. You killed Vicente, didn't you? Yes. Why? I love her. I give her everything I have. My love, my heart, my money, everything. She tells me that she is mine, all mine. That we will be married. Right here in the mission by the good Father Paulino. Then last week, I find she is also making the pretend love to Vicente. I almost went crazy. You told Vicente to stay away. See, that is right. But last night, when we were standing across the street from Miss Rita Rose's house, Vicente was there. And as they say good night on the front porch, she kissed him and pat his cheek. Just as she did to me. And so you shot him this afternoon. With a 38. And when the sheriff called, you told us it was a 32. Knowing that Rose also had a 32. See, that is right. But you would never get me for it. Mellard, Father, come on. Don't let him get away. There he goes. Up on that wall. Miguel, stop.  I have no life, Father. Miguel, watch out. You're going to... No. Am I dying? Yes, Miguel.  Did Beth, you hear them, Father? They're ringing, Miguel. Time for the company. You would pray for me, Father Polino? Merciful Jesus, all knowing, all seeing. Look down upon us this night so close upon thine own natal day. This boy I'm holding in my arms. Miguel Torres. He has trespassed upon thy commands. In thine infinite mercy. I seek his forgiveness. Thank you, Father. Thank you. Yes, Contenpache, may his soul rest in peace. Where is she? The tailor woman. I'm right here, Father. Look upon this boy I'm holding here. The second death in a matter of hours. And all because of you. I know. In the eyes of the law, you are helpless. You pulled no trigger to cause the death of a sentry.  But it was because of you. I... I realize that now. Do you? Really? Yes, Father. And perhaps in this hour of dark tragedy, something has been salvaged after all. This is the yule tide. The anniversary of the birth of Christ. In his infinite wisdom, the almighty is charitable. Rose Taylor, seek his forgiveness. Leave San Juan Martista. I'm sure Miguel and the sentry have wanted that way. Start anew. Lead a penitent life. It is not too late. Tell me, child, do you recall Mary Magdalene? I do, Father. Need I say more? No. Someone help me with Miguel. We will carry him back to the chapel and finish the component there. I will follow. Thank you. There's a remarkable man, can't he? More than you know, Melody. Peace, honor, goodwill toward man and woman. In these troublesome times, there is a brilliant shining example of what we have to hold on to. You know, I wish there was a Father Polino in every country of the world. We'd have more time for raising kids than for killing them. My point exactly. Dear, let's get back to San Francisco. I have a special star to put on my Christmas tree tonight. Through all the Father Polinos that ever lived. Listen again next week at this same time. Just dial Candy Metzen, Yukon 208209, and a very merry Christmas to you all.
