Hey, what is up? My name is Rubidium. Today we are looking at filmmakers EDC, everyday carry, what I bring to set when I'm shooting, when I'm scouting, but mainly the kind of stuff that I've learned through absolute near failure and disaster to have with me when I'm shooting a film. So I'm gonna stay away from that overtly obvious things like a laptop and a camera and all the things that you would always think to bring to set. The iPhone is a really great filmmaking tool not because you're gonna be texting people and checking your YouTube stats between takes because it has a light, it has a Sunfinder, there's a whole bunch of apps that like Artemis, like a director's viewfinder, it is a really good tool on set to have. What most people don't think about is that if you're using your phone all day and you're away from power you're gonna need a backup battery that can be in the case or it can be an external power source that you can plug your phone in during lunch so that you have enough to get back to the car or back to the studio at the end of the day. Next item is a watch. You do not want to be pulling your phone out of your pocket every time you want to see how much time is left, how much time has gone by, how much time you have. It's much easier to glance down at your watch, see where you are on your day. It doesn't need to be fancy, it doesn't need to have a timer or anything on it, as long as you're happy to wear it, you remember it and it gets you through the day, have one on your wrist and save yourself a lot of problems. Hat and sunglasses. I would only say this because I've forgotten them before. If you are shooting outside you are gonna get burnt to a crisp if you spend 8 hours, 10 hours, 12 hours standing in the sun. This is not my film hat. My film hat is a big, nerdy, floppy thing that covers the back of my neck. You are not going to sleep very well and you are not going to be happy on day two if you get really bad sunburn on day one. Something else I bring on every shoot whether I'm inside or outside is a neck gaiter. This one was a present, has a zombie pattern printed on it but I have ones in wool, I have ones in cotton. Purposes it's a scarf that isn't going to get tangled in things and won't come off and keep you warm on a cold morning. You can wet it in water and put it on when it's hot and the evaporation will keep you really cool, protects your neck from the sun and generally just gives you a chance to be dressed appropriately. If you're shooting somewhere dusty or smoky you can use it to filter the air that you're breathing. Very cool thing that I discovered and now I always take with me to set. Next up is a leatherman. You can get one with a nylon or leather pouch, put it through your belt loop and have it on set. Make sure that it has a flat as well as a Phillips head screwdriver, has a knife for opening things or cutting cables or rope. The leathermen's have pliers, needle nose pliers which are really great for getting things that are stuck especially if you're the director you're not really getting your hands that dirty you're focused on the actors in the story. Someone somewhere at some point will need these things and it's really great for you to have them. After all it's your film that's going to be delayed for 20 minutes if someone has to run back to the car to get the screwdriver because you want to swap the tripod plate but the one stuck on the camera. You shouldn't leave home without these. These are great. I have a couple of these. This is sort of a you know generic one from a few years ago. I'm always forgetting to put them in my checked luggage and getting them confiscated at the airport. I like the Skelly tool from Leatherman because it's light and it has a reversible driver so it's very accessible but pretty much anything that has applies both types of screwdrivers and a knife will get you through the day. This is a cool little thing. There was actually a gift about 15 years ago from the first DP I ever worked with and I kind of bring it with me to set as a Lucky Charm. It is a Tiffin color contrast viewer and it's a little eyepiece with a very dark ND filter that lets you look up at the sky and see how the clouds are moving without hurting your eyes from the sun or generally just looking at things that are really bright to get a read on them before you shoot and give you a sense of how much time you have before the cloud moves in front of the sun or moves away from the sun but really fun and they look like I said this has been my Lucky Charm. If you are shooting nights and you are going to have a tough time staying awake I've tried lots of different things. I've tried coffee, I've tried energy drinks, I've tried dunking my head in cold water. All of them work to some extent but the best thing I've found for working nights is caffeine gum. There's a military strength one on Amazon that's great. If you don't have coffee for a couple of days before you have to work at night like during the day and build sort of your tolerance falls and then you can chew this stuff all night and you know the sun will come up and you'll barely even notice it's amazing stuff. I've also used it when I'm driving all night and you know knock on wood no accident so far. Get a really good pair of gloves if you're going to be moving things and working outside. Again not always the director's thing but if you're an independent film you're going to be lifting things, touching hot lights, it's awesome to have gloves. You can get these at the Home Depot or on Amazon for $15 or $20. Something that I realized which is great for gloves is wrapping cables or moving stands around that have been on the floor.  Anytime you have to touch something or lift something super super helpful to have a good pair of gloves to protect your hands. Oh have a Sharpie on set or a pen. I use this ridiculously overbuilt thing called the tactical stylus which I guess you can stab someone with if they try and steal your camera but generally you'll need to sign things, write on things, mark things, mark your water bottle and it's really great to have a pen or something to write with in ArmsReach. This is something I learned in my early filmmaking days is the mini script. If you go into your PDF printing thing you can put two pages on one page or even four pages on one page and have like a little pocket version of the script pages for that day with you so that if someone asks for a line or you need to work out you need to look at the script it's not as bad as carrying around a big version of it. You can use your tactical stylus or your pen to like cross things off as you shoot them and generally I really like having one with me. I've heard some directors go ahead and laminate a little mini script so they just take the pages they need or have a have a little binder clip in the top corner if they're working outside and things might get wet which I think is really cool and you end up having a collection of little laminated mini scripts at the end of your film but generally it really helps for the director to be on the same page as everyone else literally. My last thing is headphones. Get a good pair of headphones. The audio guy will probably hand you some or I've seen people trying to use earbuds. I've played around with using the Bose noise cancelling headphones on set.  The advantage of these is that and I only use them indoors now the advantage of them is that they block out all the extra sound and let you focus on just what the actors are saying. As good as the Bose are they're not industrial quality. They're not meant for you know hard work environments. They're meant for kicking back on a plane and listening to audiobooks and the other danger of noise cancelling headphones is sets can be dangerous places. People can be walking around with hot or sharp or heavy things and it's not great to isolate yourself too much from the environment around you. So get some not earbuds but over the ear cheap headphones $10 or $20 that you almost always see around the neck of directors in behind the scenes. This will let you listen to what the actors are saying without cutting you off too much from your environment. Last but not least I should say thank you to Armando from Mundo Bytes who inspired this segment. Has amazing videos please check them out. Yeah this is part one I am going to do. This is my general purpose filmmaking EDC. This is what I take to set pretty much 90% of the time I work. I'm going to do a adventure filmmaking outdoors kit for being away from power and water and those kind of things for long periods of time. So part one stay tuned part two. Thank you very much for watching. I will see you next time.


Fiber-containing foods may not only help prevent heart disease, but help treat it as well. Heart patients who increase their intake of fiber after their first heart attack reduce their risk of a second and live longer than those who don't. But what if we really don't want to have a heart attack in the first place? If 7 grams of fiber gets us a 9% reduced risk, would 77 grams a day drop our risk 99%? Well, that's what they used to eat in Uganda, a country in which coronary heart disease, our number one killer, was almost non-existent. Heart disease was so rare among those eating these traditional plant-based diets. There were papers published like this. A case of coronary heart disease in an African? After 26 years of medical practice, they finally recorded their first case of coronary heart disease in a judge consuming a partially westernized diet, having fiber-free foods like meat, dairy, and eggs displace some of the plant foods in his diet. Were there so few cases because Africans didn't live very long? No. The overall life expectancy was low because of diseases of childhood, like infections. But when they reached middle age, they had the best survival, thanks in part to our number one killer being virtually absent. Of course, now diets have westernized across the country, and it gets to now be their number one killer as well, from virtually non-existent to an epidemic. Some blame this change on too much animal fat. Others blame it on too little fiber, but they both point to the same solution, a diet centered around unrefined plant foods. In fact, sometimes it's easier to convince patients to improve their diet by eating more of the good foods to kind of crowd out some of the less healthy options. The dietary fiber hypothesis first proposed in the 70s zeroed in on fiber as the dietary component that was so protective against chronic disease. And since then, evidence has certainly accumulated those who eat lots of fiber appear protected from several chronic conditions. But maybe fiber is just a marker for the consumption of foods as grown, in whole, unprocessed plant foods, the only major source of fiber. So maybe all these studies showing fiber is good are really just showing that eating lots of unrefined plant foods are good. Fiber is just one component of plant food, and to neglect all the other components, like all the phytonutrients, may be to seriously limit our understanding. Why did Drs. Birkitt, Troll, Painter, Walker, the fathers of the fiber theory place all their bets on fiber? Well, one possible explanation for this is that they were doctors, and we doctors like to think in terms of magic bullets. And that's how we're trained, you know, like one pill, one operation. There were clinicians, not nutritionists, and so they developed a reductionist approach. The problem with that approach is that if we reach the wrong conclusion, we may come up with the wrong solution. Birkitt saw a disease rate skyrocket after populations went from eating whole plant foods to refined plant and animal foods. But instead of telling people we should go back to eating whole plant foods, he was so convinced fiber was the magic component, his top recommendations was eat whole grain bread, but they never used to eat any kind of bread in Uganda, and sprinkle some spoonfuls of wheat bran onto your food. But studies to this day associating high fiber intake with lower risk of disease and death relate only to fiber from food intake. Rather than from fiber isolates or extracts, it's not at all clear whether fiber consumed as a supplement is beneficial. In retrospect, maybe it was a mistake to isolate fiber from the overall field of plant food nutrition. The evidence supporting the value of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, as opposed to only fiber, has proved to be much more consistent. Plant whole foods are what's of fundamental importance in our diet. Fiber is just one of the many beneficial components of fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, and beans. Much of the effort on defining fiber and studying the fiber isolate would have been better applied to a whole plant food approach. What would have happened if Birket and others had instead emphasized the value of plant foods? The value of eating unrefined plant food, which incorporates fiber and phytonutrients, might have been the focus of attention rather than just isolated fiber, which leads people to shop in this aisle for their fiber, instead of this aisle.


One of the interesting things about modern-day computing is that a lot of people are conscious of the programming languages that their software is written in. Many people actually care for some reason what programming languages some of their software is written in. For example, many people have like a unhealthy hate for Python apps, but many people absolutely love everything that's written in Rust for example. And you know on that kind of front one of the languages, one of the frameworks that people really trash on probably gets the most hate out of anything is electron applications. And today I wanted to give a little love to electron because even though it's not my favorite kind of thing, I don't want everything written in electron, there are actually some applications on my system that are electron apps that I use all the time. And I think are fantastic. Today I wanted to give you my top seven electron applications. Now before I start listing the applications themselves, I do want to briefly tell those of you that are not familiar with what electron is, kind of what it is and why it gets a little bit of hate is electron is a framework to build applications. It's a way to build cross-platform applications, meaning your application should work on Windows, Mac, and Linux. And the reason that is is because they're essentially, they're kind of like web applications, right? It's like a stripped-down, minimal chromium browser and it's built using JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and that's kind of where the hate comes from. It's because not everybody loves JavaScript. It's one of those things. Not everybody wants everything written in JavaScript and these electron applications tend to be heavy, you know, they have a little bloat to them obviously because of having that chromium engine as a part of the application themselves. But let me show you the applications that I love to use that are electron-based. So the very first one is the one I use the most and that is my email client. And obviously I check my email every day. My email client is MailSpring. MailSpring is an electron app. Formerly it was proprietary software recently, about a year, year and a half ago. They open-sourced everything and re-licensed some of the proprietary stuff under the GPL. So it is for an open-source software and quite honestly, it is a fantastic email client. It's very slick, very modern-looking, has all the features.  And I just really love this particular email client. And again, it's cross-platform, so you've got Windows, Mac and Linux, which is another big selling point for these kinds of applications, especially for something like an email client, where you want the same email client on all of your machines. And if you happen to run different operating systems, sometimes it's hard to find an email client that works on, for example, all three platforms, Windows, Mac and Linux. So that is one of the big selling points here for MailSpring. I did a video on MailSpring about a year, year and a half ago, and I've been using it ever since. And it does have the ability to actually do some custom theming. For example, this dark colored theme that you see here, this is actually my own theme that I created. If I go into edit and preferences, you have some appearance stuff here, and you see change theme. If I look through here, you will see DOOM 1. DOOM 1, obviously, is the DOOM Emacs color scheme. I kind of ported that color scheme over to also work here inside MailSpring. Now you will see my custom DOOM 1 color scheme for MailSpring over on my GitLab, for those of you interested. But this is not going to be an in-depth coverage of this particular email client. I just wanted to show you MailSpring as one of my top seven electron applications. And the next electron application that I really love, I actually think this is one of the best applications available for burning ISOs to a USB stick. This is Belina Etcher. Now Belina Etcher is really easy to use. It's cross-platform, meaning Windows, Mac, and Linux, which is something kind of rare. I can't think of offhand any other USB stick writer that is cross-platform. And it's free and open source software as well. Belina Etcher, how it works, it's very simple. So right here is where you choose the ISO, you know, the file you're burning to whatever device. So I don't have an ISO handy. I don't have a USB stick plugged in to show you this, but you would choose something like Flash from File and choose the file on your system. And you will see the file appear here. And then if I plug in a USB stick, instead of being grayed out here, this select target thing would actually show a device. It would show the USB drive that I plugged in.   And I say this is really safe because it only selects USB devices, meaning you can only write to a USB flash drive, USB external SSD or external hard drive, something like that. It's never going to choose any PCI devices. It's never going to write to your actual SSDs or NVMe drives in your computer. So you never have to worry about accidentally overwriting like a system drive, for example, which is something that you can do with most other ISO burning programs. You can make mistakes like that, sometimes critical mistakes where you actually write to the wrong drive with Belina Edger, that really should never happen. Now another really cool electron app I have on my system is the Raven Reader. Now Raven Reader is an RSS feed reader. And you can say it's pretty simple here. I've got a whole bunch of various news related RSS feeds. These are mostly Linux related. And you can say they all get thrown into the center column. It's very similar to the same kind of layout as MailSpring, this three column to layout where if I click on something, I'll get a little preview of it. Of course, both MailSpring and Raven Reader. And for those of you familiar with, of course, Microsoft Outlook, right? So that's kind of the program that really made this kind of three column layout famous. And you know, I could just go down here or with control J and K, I can move through, you know, the various articles here. And of course, there are various features that I could turn on and off. For example, right now I'm just getting a little preview of the article. But if I wanted to, I could go into preferences and some of the stuff I could turn on, I could turn on full article by default, which I have turned on. So if I go to something like this, instead of just getting the preview, you know, I'll actually get the full article output right here. Now if I wanted to read the full article output exactly as it, as it appears on the web, because remember, we do have a chromium engine as a part of these web applications, these electron apps, I could click on view original. And instead of, you know, getting it themed exactly the way everything else in the app is themed, it will actually just give me the web page with the article on it. So that is kind of a really neat thing too. I really think this is probably the best RSS feed reader I've come across. So it's got a lot of the features that you want. It's got the ability to import and export your subscriptions. It's got the ability to group your subscriptions and, you know, favorite articles and things like that. So this is Raven RSS Reader. Again, cross platform, Windows Mac and Linux, which is going to be the case for all these applications, but one today. There is one Linux specific electron app I'm going to talk about today. By the way, all of these applications being electron, I believe all of them are available as an app image. That's the way I'm running most of them on my system. I believe all of them are also available in the snap craft store. So all of them are available as a snap pack, and it wouldn't shock me if all of them aren't available as a flat pack as well. So if you want to install these and they're not in your Linux distributions repositories, which depending on your distribution, they may or may not be. I know on Arch Linux, I could install all of these through the AUR, but I don't think any of these are in the core Arch repositories. Those of you using, you know, older distributions or, you know, distributions that have older packages in their repository, something like Debian, you may or may not find any of these applications in the Debian repository. But again, just go grab the app image. And the fourth electron app I want to talk about is an application called Potter, which will not launch from the menu. Have I not actually added that using app image launcher? I know I've got it as an app image. I may have never actually added it. Let me run it through the app image launcher. But Potter is a podcasting application. You can see I was listening to the last episode of Linux unplugged here, right? If I hit play, which I can't play much audio, but you know, it's playing right now. I don't know if you guys were able to hear that hopefully not because I really don't need to play anybody else's audio. But if I want to search for a podcast, maybe I don't know Joe Rogan, right? I can get the Joe Rogan experience and I can start playing that. I just click on it and it's going to start playing here. I'm going to pause that though. Obviously, I don't want to play that as well. But you know, this is an electron podcast application. You have your favorites before she have your settings. You've got various hotkeys. You do have some key bindings you can use. It's very web-like, right? Which makes sense for something like a podcasting application because it really is kind of a front end to a website, which makes sense for an application like this to be built with electron. Many electron applications, I think, don't make a lot of sense. But a lot of them, you know, it makes sense when your application is essentially going to be a web front end anyway. Yes, I understand why an application like this, it makes sense for this to actually be written with electron. So that was Potter, a podcasting application. Another really neat electron application that I've talked about before. Let me go back to my app images folder here. So in my home directory, applications with a capital A. That's typically where all of your app images go. Stacer, let me launch that. Stacer is Linux specific. So this is the one application I'm going to talk about today that is not cross-platform because this is designed to clean up a Linux system. So it's not designed to work on Windows or Mac or any other operating system. And you see I get some information here on the front page here. So we get CPU, memory, disk space, things like that. So you can think of it kind of like a system monitor, but you've got some other things here. For example, startup applications that I could turn on and off. And then if I click the broom here, we can clean up some of our package caches, application caches, we can delete some logs, we can empty the trash, etc. And you've got various other things here. For example, in the system settings menu here, it tells us our system services, right? Those are system D services that are starting or not starting so we can turn on and off various services. We have a process viewer. So you think of this as your system monitor, again, you think of it as something like htop. And you've got some other categories here as well. So Stacer is one of those applications that's kind of, it's got a lot of tools built into it, right? It's kind of a multi-tool, but it's application that I would strongly recommend, especially newer to Linux users to actually install because Stacer is one of those applications that you could replace about half a dozen different other applications with just this one application. Stacer, I think, is a fantastic tool. The sixth application I want to talk about is one I don't use that often. I use it occasionally when I need to actually meet somebody online in a chat room or in a video chat. This is Element. Element is a matrix client. Now, you can think of Element kind of as a free and open source alternative to something like Discord. I do have a matrix channel. There is a distro tube matrix channel with various rooms. I'm never there. I don't know what goes on there. I'm not responsible for anything that you happen to see here because again, I don't hang out on this kind of stuff. I don't chat. I don't hang out on social media. It's not what I do. Honestly, I can't stand the stuff. But you can see what this is. Essentially, again, it's kind of like Discord. You can see there's some chat going on. You can have private chats with people, which is usually what I would jump on here for. Somebody wanted to have a private chat with me direct-direct for something, maybe an interview or something. We could jump on Matrix. It does have the ability to do video calls just like Discord as well. I believe it uses Jitsie's video technology to handle the video portion of that. But that is Element, a Matrix client, and it's a really, really good application. Now, I mentioned Jitsie. The element uses Jitsie for its video calls. That is the seventh and last electron application I want to talk about is Jitsie. What Jitsie is, it is essentially a free and open source alternative to something like Zoom or Skype. I could start a room here. I could say Vim is great. Just to name a room here. And it's going to try to connect to my camera and to my microphone. Now, Jitsie is not going to be able to do either one because my camera and microphone right now are in use with another application, OBS, because I record these videos through OBS. So Jitsie can actually do anything. But let me click Join Meeting. Imagine the camera and microphone, everything was working. You would see me here. You guys have seen me use Jitsie many times. This is what I do my monthly chat with patrons streams with. So once a month on the last Sunday of every month, I do a live stream with my patrons that want to join me in a live video chat on YouTube. And we do this in Jitsie. Everybody shows up and we have a live video conference here in Jitsie. Jitsie is fantastic. Very similar. If you've ever used anything like Zoom or Skype, you can use Jitsie. And I really think Jitsie in many cases is better than some of the alternatives. I will say Jitsie is definitely better than Discord as far as video quality, sound quality. I love it. So there were the seven electron applications I currently have installed on my system that I use either occasionally or sometimes every day, such as in the case of Millspring. And I think they're worthy of you guys checking out just to quickly recap. Etcher, Millspring, the Raven RSS reader, Potter, Stacer, the Element, Matrix client, and Jitsie.

It's very relative and that perception of time, even if we said the human perception of time is extremely variable, some people will say that it's they're really enjoying themselves dancing, singing, laughing or watching a great movie, like really we'll say like an Academy of World-Wing movie, they'll come out and they'll go, wow, that was like a blink, that I got sucked into that thing and spit out at the end and it was like no time passed at all because they're so fully engaged in the moment.  Most scientists throughout the centuries believed that time was absolute, that time wasn't absolute, it was fixed, like human beings existed in time, just like the chicken noodle soup, the noodles in the bowl are in the soup, they exist in the soup, human beings existed in this thing called time and the time was absolute and so this was a pervasive belief of science and then, you know, Einstein, he had a suspicion that time was not absolute, you have a mind like Einstein come along and he's not gonna just take anything on him, he didn't care how many people believe in it and how long it's been existing, he's going to investigate and he, through his investigations and explorations, he found that that time was not absolute and that everyone perceived, all human beings perceived time in a different way, so if you've got seven billion human beings, you've got seven billion perceptions of time and they don't all agree. Well, is that really true, you know, it seems like one second is one second is one second, whether you have a watch in China or New York or in Canada or Australia, you know, one second is one second is one second, no, they've taken atomic clocks now and they've flown them around in supersonic jets, they have atomic clocks on the ground, atomic clocks in the air and when they come back they try to match them and they don't match, the time is not the constant, so you're just starting, I would say with the coursing miracles and this kind of curriculum that you're working on, that's loosening and loosening and loosening and loosening and you're starting to realize that the passage of time is entirely subjective, it's not like a set objective thing that's going to be the same for everyone, which is really what Jesus says in the course, he says time and space are the same error. So anything we talk about in terms of linear time or space, you know, as it's been described by scientists and everything, that's all part of the projection and it's possible to come into the Holy Instant and as you come closer and closer into the Holy Instant, which really transcends time and space altogether, your perceptions of time and space will change, will vary greatly. Like they talk about black holes, black holes have extremely intense gravitational fields, so the same with gravity, you know, gravity, you know on Earth we may say, well gravity has such a certain pull, that's why we could say something weighs like five pounds or ten pounds or a thousand pounds and it seems pretty consistent, like we have these weights we call them, but if you took those same weights and you went and you took this guitar up inside a black hole, it would be so heavy, it would be unbelievably heavy, it would be no comparison because the gravitational pull and feel is so strong that the weight would be enormous, you know, go from being like a feather to an elephant, you know, that much of a difference because it's just showing that everything we perceive with the five senses is completely relative and that's why our perceptions of time and space will continue to alter and change and nobody is really the same as they were five seconds ago or five minutes ago, you know, we have the illusion that we have these persons and that we can describe our history and everything, but we know how it is when you get ten-eyed witnesses trying to describe what they saw, they see different things because of the variations that are there. It's very like unfamiliar so there's like some fear that comes in with that, like, you know, really coming into the whole instant. Yeah, it's very much like for human beings, human beings can seem to have fear level around certain things, and then when they keep interacting with it and practicing that they start to gain a bit of a sense of a mastery or a sense like, oh, I was afraid of that, but I didn't know what that was and now I can do it and now, oh, it's fine, it's accepted, you know, and I think with spirituality you go more and more into it and you start, you have a lot of fears that come up, but until the upside down perception comes completely right side up, it's pretty much of an adventure, it's tumultuous, you know. Some of you have heard of that movie, the Poseidon Adventure, there's been a couple of Poseidon Adventure movies, but the whole ship gets capsized, you know, there was the first one, then there was the second one, Marine McGoverns. There's got to be a morning after, if we can hold on through the night. It's very spiritual song, because it's cracking, it's like the whole world is capsized, and now we're all upside down, and we're trying to, let's keep on looking for the light, you know. We're hoping there's a way to turn this ship right side up, but everything's upside down, and so we're like in the dark, we're stumbling, and our relationships are awkward, everything we think we know, we're on our career path, we think we've got all our whole lives knocked out, we've got our career set, and we're all set, and then, you're married, you think you're married until death do we part, you think I'll love you forever, me and my baby, my sweetheart. We're unbreakable, we're unstoppable, there is nothing in this world that's going to break us apart. Oh my God, I want to divorce, what? You promised me, until death do we part. I want to divorce. You know, it's shattering, you might say that along this whole journey of the human experience, there's going to be many, many shattering points, because we've become addicted to linear time, and we want continuity, we so much want continuity. That's what people are looking for in relationships, they want continuity, stay with me. Instead of that, like the Carol King song, will you still love me tomorrow? I want my happiness, my stability, my peace, depends on what you and I are going to be doing for years to come. And when the divorce comes along, it's like wham, slice, the butcher's knife coming, boom! There is no tomorrow, we have no future. Actually, when you come more into the holy incident, that we have no future together, suddenly becomes the truth. It becomes from this panic thing to, oh, we actually do have no future together. We have now together, we've always had now together, we always will have now together. I've even done talks, I was over in Spain last year, and I was getting this talk on the holy incident, the present moment, and relationships and everything, and I didn't know it, they had told me to come over, they wanted me to marry this bride and this groom. The bride and the groom were in the audience. I had met them, I was supposed to do their service the next day there, so the next day when I came to meet with them, I said, do you have any vows for both Spanish? He said, I love you now, that was their one in Spanish one. It was a real quick service. I love you now, I love you now, you may kiss the bride. And I played Ave Maria, this beautiful Ave Maria, and they all just swayed and danced. We were all kind of in this mystical state, but they were very happy, and that's all they could settle on for their vows. And it was easy to remember your vows. It was, and no broken promises. No, you told me, no expectations, no divorce lawyer, just think about the practical aspects of that are enormous. We can see what a contradiction that is to believing that the love is linear and then looking for love on the linear timeline, looking for all that continuity on the timeline, and it's just not there. So in the end, for centuries, nuns had gone through all the vitiate, they had to go through all these different steps to become what? The bride of Christ. Now that, you can see what they're desiring is union with Christ. But we're learning from, of course, the miracles, that takes a lot of forgiveness. You can't just say I'm the bride of Christ. You actually have to let all the darkness up, clear it all out, and then when you're clear, you're clean, and you're into alignment with God, then you're more than the bride of Christ. You are the Christ. You are the living Christ. And that's really our destiny. Our destiny is to remember ourselves as the Christ and one with God, which Jesus was showing. That's why they call him the way-shower. He was leading us. He was showing us the way, all the teachings in the Gospels. And then now, here we have a course of miracles. In the Gospels, he said, take no thought for the morrow. The day has enough trouble for itself. Take no thought for what you shall wear, what you shall eat. Well, that's pretty specific. Don't be concerned about what you're wearing. That kind of rules out the fashion industry. Right away, you know. I don't want a profession. Take no thought and take away nutrition. Take away dietitian. You know, all the things in this world are so big on what you eat. Take no thought for what you shall eat. Seek ye first the kingdom of heaven, and all else will be added unto you. It's a very practical and very simple teaching about living in the present moment.  He comes back through Helen Shuckman, and it's kind of like, in case you missed it. In case you missed it. I gave it to you really simply. They did a pretty good job. And they put it down in this book called The Bible. And a lot of these Bibles, they put my words into red prints. But if you're still having problems, out of this whole book, just reading the red prints, I'm going to give it to you again. And he says in the Course, Once you have accepted his plan, the Holy Spirit's plan, as the one function that you will fulfill, there will be nothing else the Holy Spirit will arrange for you without your effort. He will go before you, make you straight your path, and living in your way, no stones to trip on, and no obstacles to bar your way. Nothing you need will be denied you. Not one seeming difficulty that will melt away before you reach it. You need to take thought for nothing, except the only purpose that you would fulfill. Well, is it the field? Take no thought for tomorrow. Take no thought for what you should wear or eat. And in case you missed it, he gives us a passage that, in the Course of Miracles, has been called the promise. The promise is extremely simple. It's basically saying, get in touch with your purpose and follow the Holy Spirit's plan, and you need take thought for nothing. What about the practicalities of living? What about economics? Nope, you need take thought for nothing. What about exercise? I was just in Greensboro, and my friend Gaila, she said, do you brush your teeth, David? She wants to know, let's see the practicalities, how far are we going? Do we have to brush our teeth? Do you floss? I love North Carolina. Come on, we heard they teach you to do this. We're going to get down to the nitty-gritty here. Let's get down to the nitty-gritty.  Not one's seeming difficulty, but will melt away before you reach it. That's something really good. That's something like Divine Ease. And that's saying, all you have to do is have alignment with the Holy Spirit and absolutely everything, the financials, the food, the housing, the relationships, everything. You don't have to worry about Mother Earth anymore, you don't have to worry about Father Time, you don't have to worry about the Cozum layer anymore. Pollution? No, don't give a thought to pollution. Recycling? No, don't think about recycling. Skincare? UV rays? No, no, no. You need to take thoughts of nothing. Nothing, nothing, nothing. No, no, no. You're missing the point, nothing. Nothing means nothing, nothing means nothing. So, you know, it almost sounds like a fairy tale.  And to me, that's the feeling I had in my life all these years ago where I thought, okay, I've read in the Bible, I was a Christian, I've read in the Bible, I've read it now in the Course, and it was almost like he was doing, like, Morpheus in the Matrix, with the finger on him. Come on, come on now. You're going to jump with me, or you're going to go for this. And that's been the experience. That's where the joy, the happiness, the laughter come in, is saying yes to that finger that's calling you. It can seem extraordinary, but for me it was devotion to inner listening. Because I did have people that came after me that kind of like Peaceful Grim went around the world, you know, just living very simply and everything, and they said, I tried, David, I quit my job, I started just walking and traveling around the world, and I got beat up and mugged and robbed. And I said, I didn't tell you to do what I'm doing. Jesus is not saying, do what I did. You're going to have crucifixion seeing to look forward to our lives and everything like that. He's saying, think. Think with me. When he says I'm calling you out of the world, he's not going to say a laser beam is going to come down. Just take your body out of the world. He's saying, I'm calling you out of the thinking of the world. I'm calling you out of the fear-based thought system. When you made the world, the ego is fear. When you believe in linear time, it's like the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill was playing Yale on Yale's home field. It would be a road game. Well, spiritually, we're on a road game. We're on the road. We're on the ego's playing field. That's why we really need guidance. We need a good signal caller, a good play caller who's going to call the plays from above because it's a hostile crowd. They're all booing. As some of you may have noticed in this world, there's a lot of antagonism that we get from all angles because we get these mixed witnesses. We're on the road. We can't even hear the signal sometimes. The signal caller's calling. We can't even hear the signal. Booing us so strong and making all this noise because trying to disrupt us. That's why we really need to, as best we can, give it over to the Holy Spirit. I figured I would test it out with Jesus. I certainly didn't try to just say yes, yes, yes. I would try to reason with Jesus. I would say, listen, listen. I have been on planet Earth for 20-some years. First, let's talk about money. You need to take that for nothing and all my conditioning says you better pay attention to your money issues because you're in big trouble if you don't. You could end up desolate, broke or in prison or if you don't take care of it. So I said, money does not grow on trees. I cannot just go out and start plucking $100 bills or $20 bills or $10 bills off of the trees to pay my bills. I said to Jesus, money does not grow on trees. He says, yes, I know you believe that. That's how you start it. He's not going to try to just deny what you believe in but he said he will tell you it's a belief. And of course there's beliefs in nutrition. Of course there's beliefs in economics. Of course there's beliefs in maintaining the body. There's beliefs in medicine. There's beliefs in all kinds of things and he's just saying in lesson number 50 I am sustained by the love of God. Come with me and just take a movement towards me where I'm at and start to question these things that you're sustained by all these other beliefs. Maybe your mind is filled with unreal beliefs and he's saying that's okay but we can work with that. That's what he was always saying to me, I'll work with you. I know you still believe money does not grow on trees so I'll guide you towards jobs and jobs will give you money to pay your bills and pay your debts and we're going to practice forgiveness while you're doing this. We're going to practice rinsing, rinsing, rinsing the mind of all these erroneous beliefs you have but we're going to be practical. We're not going to skip over anything. You have debts and you need to work a job to pay the debts, that's fine. I'll guide you to those jobs. I'll guide you very specifically while you're wound into this linear belief in time and space I will filter through your belief system and give you clear practical guidance. Where to go, what to do, when to stay, when to leave. Those are important decisions that we have to make and if we make them out of fear or past learning we tend to stay stuck in the same routines, the same patterns just going round and round but when we give them over to the Holy Spirit we still handle everything. Everything still gets handled. You still go to the grocery store as long as you believe you still have hunger you still need food to handle that hunger you go to the grocery store but you have holding counters in the grocery store you start to see the Christ in everyone you meet in the laundry man, grocery store and auto mechanics. They gave him when he was getting his windshield fixed on his truck he had a holding counter with the guy while he was doing it he was enjoying this beautiful time together this joyful talk together while the guy did a great job fixing the windshield so to me that's what makes it practical I've always talked about it's not just been a lot of affirmations and a lot of hopeful wishful thinking that I could manifest a different world it's been practically speaking where would you have me go? What would you have me do? Who would you have me meet? What would you have me say? Coming and doing these gatherings for 20 some odd years I just show up I don't have anything planned, written down no agenda, don't know what words will be spoken or given but I do trust that it will be for my benefit and for the benefit of the whole universe but I don't have anything in mind for it at all and we can do that with our life too


Welcome to the nonprofit show. We are so glad that you're here. Today is my absolute favorite episode day. It's Friday, Friday, which is our ask and answer. We're so grateful to have Fundraising Academy at National University here to support us each and every Friday. I love MUJI that no one yet from the Fundraising Academy team has told me to stop referring to it as Friday, ask and answer. I really appreciate that. Today, we do have back with us, MUJI Kwaja joining us. MUJI is a trainer, as I said last week, the trainer, but he's one of the amazing trainers there at Fundraising Academy. He's also co-founder of the American Muslim Community Foundation and brings to us years of experience in the sector, a really good perspective and lens from all of your lived experiences. They're really excited to have you here. I'm Jarrett Ransom, your nonprofit nerd and CEO of the Raven Group. We also want to give a great shout out to our amazing presenting sponsors that have allowed us the opportunity to have these conversations. Thank you to our friends over at Bloomerang, American Nonprofit Academy, again Fundraising Academy at National University, nonprofit thought leader, your part-time controller, staffing boutique, nonprofit nerd, as well as nonprofit tech talk. These companies, many of them, have been with us for this four-year journey. Thank you so much for their support. Really honored to have them with their help. They have helped us to expand where you can find our content. All of this is free, more than 800 episodes. The latest and greatest is the app.  Because I have a big road trip coming up myself, I'm going to have to make sure to tune into some of our podcasts that we've done. I'm looking forward to that. Hey, would you mind me telling us a little bit about what's coming up here in June, which is literally right around the corner in San Diego? Yeah, next week. It's crazy that it's already here. In San Diego, you go together live. If you are close by and still many get out professional development budget, the registration is only $99. I highly recommend you come spend the day with us to learn best practices around bug-raising and the relationship building. We're really excited to be hosting in person again. Me too. I'm excited to be there. As you can see, the theme is cultivate. It's going to be a really good one. It's an all-day conference, inaugural conference. So come join us in San Diego. We will be there where I'll be broadcasting live both days, Thursday, as well as our Friday. There, Muhy will be joining me as well as LaShonda. So I'm excited for that. Well, without further ado, we now have our questions. So you know how this rolls, Muhy, but for our viewers and listeners, we do have a series of questions that have come in from you, our amazing viewers and listeners. I will read them aloud. Muhy will jump in with his lived experiences and I will likely add to that as well. So we're going to start off here in Boise, Idaho from Rich. We are trying to get our board members to meet IRL in real life and not only on Zoom. They are a bit resistant to this. We could use some advice on how to bring them back to our campus. Muhy, this is not a new question. I feel like I've heard this over the last 18 months from a lot of different clients. What are you hearing about this? Yeah, I think in terms of creating a hybrid opportunity might make sense, letting people know that they can come in person and you may get a few people who want that in-person interaction. I think there's a big benefit to a board meeting in person, even if it's only once a month, I'm sorry, once a year. I don't know how often these board meetings are. If they're quarterly, if they're monthly, it might be a bit much for their calendars to schedule in the time to drive into the campus and leave. Our daily lives have changed so much since COVID. There is great value in the camaraderie, in the networking, in the ability to sit face to face. But I think sharing some more on what is the draw to come to campus and encouraging that and maybe setting precedent that the board chair or the leadership team are in person and leading by example with it. Yeah, great response. I love meeting in person. I really like and appreciate your answer to at least come together once a year, maybe for an annual meeting. I have seen, as I said, this question come across several times for many of our clients and I recently presented to a board and it was all about how to increase their board engagement. And what I really appreciated was the conversation went to a place where the entire board membership shared their thoughts on what engagement looks like to them and how they were willing to show up in their position. And so I really appreciated that. Another big thing that came up for this and I'll just share because for Rich, maybe it's applicable to this as well. Maybe they're showing up on Zoom but they're showing up without their cameras on, right? And that's been another big one I know. And so maybe having a conversation about what engagement looks like for the board and how you want to set that culture of engagement, I think just resets that expectation for everyone. So I do appreciate having the option for Zoom meetings. And so I'm one of those that's like, the hybrid is a good transition, I think. So Rich, we wish you the best. I think when it comes down to it, it really is that engagement and how can you best support and work with one another? So we're all struggling right now with this of what is that new normal? Which we talked about a couple of years ago. So good stuff there. Well, this is from my local community and I don't know who sent this in but we are going to absolutely answer this for you. I was a volunteer at an event and I saw an employee act poorly with another volunteer. They were super dismissive and actually offensive. Is there any way I should report this and who would I even talk to about this? Interesting. What do you think, Muhy? Yeah, my first thought is like, who's the volunteer coordinator? Hopefully that isn't the employee that was acting poorly with another volunteer. But bringing it up to somebody in the senior leadership of the organization, if you are familiar with other people at the org. Yeah, those things should never happen. It's unfortunate that it did, especially at an event where other people could see. Yeah, I'm in agreement, not sure who the volunteer coordinator is, manager, but whoever's the one responsible for the volunteers themselves, I think would be the right person. And hopefully it wasn't that person, as Muhy mentioned to you. And yeah, if there was maybe a volunteer survey that came out and they asked for any other comments, that could be a place where you could mention it. And as Muhy mentioned, maybe even going to that senior leadership, the development person, development director, I would want to know as an organizational leader that something like this has taken place because that could also inhibit the engagement moving forward, not only with that volunteer, but you as the one who witnessed this, if it's not handled, as well as other observers who have witnessed this. And so I think really, I come from a place of transparent communication. And so I really think having that transparency and being just upfront that this is what you observed, it was of concern for you and you wanted to bring it to their attention, I think is definitely worthwhile. So yeah. Well, sorry that happened. I know that oftentimes stress is high at some of these events, but still, right? There's still some manners, I think to uphold. So all right. So here you are in Chicago, Muhy, name withheld. I think our finance department should be sharing more financial information about our entire organization and not just our revenue side of things. This seems controversial for some reason. However, I truly believe we all need to know about the financial help of our nonprofit in order to serve thoughts. Ooh, this is a packed one, Muhy, take it away. Yeah, so a few initial things come to mind. Every organization has to file a 990. So there are statements in there that you can share publicly. And I think if an organization is creating an annual report, it is part of the due diligence to be reporting expenses. So I think there are certain ways in various formats that you can be sharing that information. And I would say it's a best practice to be including that in your reports. Yeah, I agree. I love a 990, right? Like that is just good nerd material. We could nerd out on that probably for hours because there's many, many, many pages. And I would say to the board reports have the financial information. So I'm not sure your position in the organization. Maybe you're not in attendance of the board meetings. Maybe your supervisor's not sharing some of this information and it could be shared with other levels within the organization. So without knowing truly the position and kind of what you're looking for, I do understand, right? Like that revenue and the expense really helps to shape that full picture and not just seeing one lens of it. So I feel you and I hope that this provides some answers to you. And I would say, go to the finance department first of all and ask them, is there any way that you could receive these expenses, see what they are and just go from there from an inquisitive curious place. So hopefully that will help shore up some answers for you, some curiosity. All right, we're moving over to Tampa. Jason, I like this one. This is probably one of my favorite ones for today, Muhe. But Jason says, I do not have a college education but I want to grow my fundraising position within the nonprofit sector. Honestly, how much will not having a degree hinder my advancement in the nonprofit sector? What do you think? This is really interesting. I think that there's a lot of ways in which you can still get a lot of experience. Whether you want to do a certificate program in nonprofit leadership or specifically in fundraising, there's a whole host of resources. Of course, even fundraising Academy has free monthly webinars for you to learn these best practices of fundraising. But I would say it's probably organization dependent. In job descriptions, yeah, there's still a lot around requiring a bachelor's or even having a master's preferred. But in other industries, it's not as common anymore. I wonder if the nonprofit sector will catch on that trend or not. But I would say it's not necessarily necessary. Find mentors who have been in fundraising if you can be in a position and if you are currently and you want to expand further down the line, see what professional development opportunities there are within your organization to move forward. So if you're currently working in an organization where you don't have a degree, it shouldn't limit you in moving forward. Yeah, I agree. I did take a traditional route. I didn't go through nonprofit management as an undergrad. I actually went through mass communication and theater as an undergrad. And then I went on to earn my master's in business administration. But I will tell you as someone who often is a decision maker in hiring development team members, I don't always look for a degree. I look for that natural ability to build relationships, to have conversations, to speak passionately. And there's two questions I always ask and I love to ask them. The first one is what do you love to do? And the second one is what are you great at doing? And you could have different answers to those or it could be the same. But it kind of takes us to that. I'm now remembering Moohi, our icky guy, conversation and episode. And it's like, find that passion. And if serving in a nonprofit and a fundraising space is passion for you, I think you will be extremely successful. There is so much opportunity for advancement in the education realm of this, fundraising academy, absolutely. We here have tons of episodes you can go back and listen to. I've done some executive coaching at Moohi and I just love this one answer from one of my previous clients. She says, I have Googled my way through my career of being an executive director of a nonprofit. And we laugh because we know it's true. Like there's so much out there to really get our hands on. There's a lot of information. So I'm not one to, I did take the traditional route but I'm not one to say that's the only route to take these days. So I think there's tons of opportunities for you, Jason. And hey, maybe you can still make it to the Fundraising Academy Cultivate Conference June 1. Yeah, even like resource groups like Association of Fundraising Professionals get a mentor there. There's so many ways in which you can still further your career.  Early in my career, I did the mentor program and you're paired. So Jason, for this, you're paired with a CFRE, a Certified Fundraising Executive. And so they really work with you. And I still keep in touch with my mentor from that opportunity. So I'm glad you mentioned that. The other group that I personally enjoy is YNPN, Young Nonprofit Professional Networks. And the youngest objective. So Jason, I'm not sure you're age but don't let that hinder you from getting involved. So it really, for our chapter here in the Phoenix community, it's really about young in the career, young in the tenure, the space of non-profit. So it's not necessarily your birth date. But good stuff. And hey, I welcome you to the sector and in fundraising, we need so many good, passionate people. Moe, you are one of those good, passionate people and it's always so great to have these dialogues with you. I learn from you each and every time and I really appreciate seeing your lens and your perspective of your career on these answers. So, Moe, thank you for joining us. And for those of you watching or listening, Moe Kwaja and look at these, I always love it. MPA, CFRE and CFRM. Moe is also a trainer at Fundraising Academy, National University and will be in San Diego, June 1 for the Cultivate Conference. So, Moe, thank you. It's always so great to spend any time with you. Also wanna thank our presenting sponsors. So thank you so much to Bloomerang, American Nonprofit Academy, your part-time controller, non-profit thought leader, Fundraising Academy at National University, Staffing Boutique, non-profit nerd and non-profit tech talk. These organizations help us get through some of the greatest challenges that we've been faced over the last three years and we are so grateful to have their support. Moe, do you have anything fun planned for this weekend? You know, I've been traveling the world and now I'm just gonna be with family for Memorial Day weekend. And I think that's a great way to spend it. So I'll just be on some family time and enjoying it. It's always great being here with you, Jared. And I look forward to next week as well. Yeah, absolutely. I will see you next week. And thank you for all of you that joined us today. Have a wonderful, safe Memorial Day weekend. We are taking Monday off, so we will not be on here Monday. But as we end every episode, we ask you, invite you remind you to please stay well so you can do well. Thank you, Moe.


I remember when they had the, I was so, I wasn't even mad cause I'm older.  I think he said the black podcast. You boss talk niggas, man. Y'all niggas is black niggas too, bro. Y'all sitting in, y'all lowkey dissing us too. So I'm like, I ain't heard about them. Yeah. But I'm like, what is he saying? I'm black, he black. Hey, I had to throw a little shade though. You know what I'm saying?  I'm watching the interviews and stuff. I'm like, oh, yeah, they lowkey throwing shots on me. Yeah. Yeah, we on boss talk one-on-one, one-on-one. Yeah, we gonna talk. So when you were on the show with Adam, how much input did y'all have on that show? Whereas the show, how it went and so forth. Oh, we had full input on everything. On everything. Yeah, it was, I mean, it was just basically, it's just like, you know, he said earlier, there's no rules to this. There's really no handbook to it. Some people can give you pointers and yeah, certain basic things that you know, like trying not to talk over each other and certain stuff like that. But for the most part, like a show like how we had, you can't predict that.  So, and, you know, as long as the views is there, I mean, hey, here, take all the inputs you need. That's it. So yeah, we have full input on everything.   I think he said the black podcast. You boss talk niggas, man. Y'all niggas is black niggas too, bro. Y'all sitting, y'all low-key dissing us too, so I'm like, I ain't heard about them. Yeah, but I'm like, what is he saying? I'm black, he black. Hey, I had to throw a little shade though.   But I was like, the black podcast, y'all, okay. Set out the boss talk.  You know one thing though, man, I just knew, like, because we look alike, I'm being honest with you, I'm always thinking, man, I gotta meet this dude, I gotta, it didn't, I kept saying, you know how many people are sending us bad notes about that they love y'all, bro? Like, I got so much bad, didn't I? I got so much emails, people calling, everything like, man, y'all suck, why y'all good, why you say that, bye, ED, this, this, I was hearing all that, and yeah, the trolling is real, 22, yeah, and I was like, man, you know, but in my mind, I was like, man, it ain't bigger than that, when I meet them, that's when it's gonna be real, it ain't real right now, because the internet is tricky, man. And they can twist and turn anything you say into something totally different, and magnify it a thousand times. And you know, I ain't letting my wife even be on the episode when we were, when that was happening, because you know what I'm saying, didn't you?  But at the end of the day, man, like I say, we all look alike and we gotta figure it out. And it ain't nothing wrong with getting into it as long as you figure it out, hey, man, this is gonna happen, we gotta move forward.  And I thought that was noble, you know what I'm saying? Because at the end of the day, you gotta be able to get past your differences, man. You know what I'm saying? It can't be something that just, just pretty much, I'm gonna get that nigga when I see him. Oh, people was mad that I said that I'll sit down. I know it, you know I'm missing, man. Man, bro. But I'm a person like, I don't, if it's something that I want to do, I want to leave by example. Yeah. I want to be no follower. So, you know, I felt like when I made the statement that I made, it was 100% wrong.  I have had some. That nigga come here, I'm gonna set him up. Yeah. You know what I mean? 100% wrong. Shouldn't have said that. And I can own that as a man. Like it wasn't cool. So the reactions that I got, I deserve those reactions. Cause I mean, he didn't know me, and maybe that's how God wanted it to work. He didn't know me from McCann and Payne. And once I said what I said, he said, oh, he was going in.  I put him in that seat.  I'm the one that I set it up. I gotta be real with you. I seen you say that. He did an interview with Cam Capone News. I recorded it. That's when he was interviewing there. I said, when you get through, turn around, I say, because we can get on there.  Didn't I do it? I put it together, I said, we're gonna get this nigga. I'm in a way that we better figure this out why he wanna set you up. You know that nigga?  Yeah, talk about he'll set me up. AD, talk about that on another nigga. That's me. And I knew that I didn't know how hard he was gonna go.  I don't never know. You can't tell which way he gonna go with it. But at the end of that, I knew it was gonna be something different. I was like, oh, here we go. And then what tripped me out, people tried to take it after that and run with it and try to get into the situation. I seen all the other people with platform, they try to, you know, bring him on and talk about it. They jumped off that offer. Boss talk about one. You're talking, I agree. But at the end of the day, I ain't trippin' on that. I just know I did that. But I also knew, I knew he's gonna get at him too. I knew, I knew, I knew Adam was gonna get it. Charleston get everybody. You got everybody. I know. And that's the thing too is that once that situation happened, I'm over there, I'm going to his YouTube, looking for what he's talking about and responses. And I just end up like, man, this nigga entertaining. I can't even cap.
