Welcome to PsyGig Media. I'm Toni Green. I am Toni Green, the PsyGig Media and Channel. So we're going to start the show the same way we do every single time I start a show. And that is by letting you know how you can join us live every Monday at noon central and Wednesday for now at 7pm central. I go live. You can call in and be part of the show. The call in number is<PHONE_NUMBER>. You can call in and ask a question about life, love, career, finances, any aspect of your life at all. You get one question, make it count. You cannot ask a second question or you should not ask a second question. It's one question. Or you can connect with a loved one on the other side. If you choose to connect with a loved one on the other side, I just need their first name and their relationship to you like Judy, my mom, Bill, my uncle, and then if you have a question or comment for them. Okay. I will never reach out to anybody on social media asking them if they want a reading, telling them they need a reading or asking them for money. Nope. Won't do that. Not at all. I'm going to start right away with the names and the songs because they are coming in so strong. Oh my gosh. I was sitting here getting ready and all I could hear is like a mirage of names and songs mixed all together. So I'm going to start with the names and the first name is, and I hear somebody just yelling, Mary Beth, Mary Beth. So this could be the name of somebody that you that has passed over and is on the other side or it could be your name or the name of somebody here that you know. So the first name I hear is obviously Mary Beth and then Anna Maria and then I hear the name. This name always makes me laugh and I apologize. Alejandro. I apologize for that. And then I hear the name Jose and the name Javier. Javier. Okay. And then I'm hearing the name Melissa and the name Betsy or Betty or Betsy. And then the name Axel. It's a name. People have it. Not only the guy from Guns N' Roses. I think real people have that name. Well, the guy from Guns N' Roses in all fairness is a real person, but I don't know that that was his birth name. But I do think people do call their kids Axel. Okay, just enough on that. And then I am hearing the name Josh or Joshua. I'm hearing the name Brenda, Carly, one with Stephanie. Stephanie. Okay. And then the songs I'm hearing is that song Rosanna, take me all the way. Rosanna, yeah. And if you know the song, you know the song. Now I am going to say for the songs, this could be a song they loved, you loved, you listened to together, or the song could be something that answers a question that you have in your head right now. The next song is Bohemian Rhapsody. And then the next song is there's so many coming in at once. It is, I can't make any of them out. But the next song is Dancing Queen. Dancing Queen. Something and something. That song. And the next song, I'm asking them to back off a little bit and just feed them to me one at a time. And this is a really important part of the show to me because if you don't get to ask a question on YouTube or you don't get to ask a question online and you just want to know if your loved one's there, then you get to know through this part too. Okay. Okay. The next song is Living on a Prayer. The next song is Live and Let Die. Live and Let Die. No, no, no, no. No, no, no. No, no, no. And then the next song. I don't want to sing that. I can't sing that. The next song, I think this is a song. I think this is a different verse to a song I sang possibly on Monday show. But he has like this very unique voice and I'm going to warn you it's a rap song and it's probably not going to sound like a rap song coming from me as the tears of pain and shame roll out of my eyes now. And the verse I'm going to sing is see the females work it. I can't even try to sing it. And I know, I can't even say if you know the song, you know it because I can't even something about work it. And I like the song I do I really do like that song I just can't that's the only part they're giving me so that's the only part I can give you. The next one, the next song I'm hearing is or I'm hearing Kenny Loggins and then I'm hearing Kenny Rogers. Those are the songs I'm hearing. Okay. I'm going to go straight to callers and if you have a question if you're joining me on YouTube, thank you. Thank you for watching me record or film or video this live for all the TV stations. This show does air on WSES and a number of streaming stations Roku and otherwise through Rude Rangers TV and WS they both send them out to all of their streaming channels. I'm also on almost every podcast out there and radio stations. I'm on a number of television stations. I don't know them all but I am I know and I know this because a woman called me about a month ago or so and she said I watch you on this station. I'm like oh where is that and she said it's in Florida. I'm like oh my gosh I'm on TV in Florida. Awesome. Thank you Scott but I know that I'm also on TV through all of the streaming stations that Rude Ranger sends me out on. Thank you Rudy so much and Scott sends me out on. Thank you guys so much for all the work you do behind the scenes to get the show out and to get it in front of everybody on podcasts and television and radio stations. I know Rude Ranger sends me out on their radio stations and then whatever I send myself out on that I'm capable of doing. So I know I was going someplace with that but I'm going to just keep keep going like lakadu lakadu. I am going to be taking callers. When I call your area code please tell me your first name and where you're calling from and then your question or your connection to heaven and then I'll be also taking that's where it was questions on YouTube. Now somebody named Lisa asked a question way before the show started and Lisa if you're still here pop something in the chat just to let me know you're still here. I don't answer questions if the people aren't hanging around for the answer. I mean that was I came on about 15 minutes before this show started and the question was already there. So if you're still here just pop that in otherwise I'm going to go to the first caller on the call log and again if you want to call in it's<PHONE_NUMBER> right now 205 you're live. What's your name and where are you calling from? I'm calling. Thank you so much for taking my call. My name is Patricia and I am calling from Alabama. Tony you had told me probably a couple months ago that I was going to encounter a couple guys one was going to be he was going to tell me all of these things but he was just going to be about that and then I would meet the true guy after that and I think this was in June and he even gave me the date of June 25 but I met the guy the second guy the real guy on July 25 and so it's been about a month and I've really really enjoyed him and out we're just doing different things and I just don't know where do you see this going his his initial is S and he's been doing kind of it all together. Okay so I'm so happy you met the second guy and he has it together I'm going to try to tap into not only his energy but your energy together and see what that feels like to me. The first word I hear is harmonious. I always say to everybody take it slow just in the beginning and just take it slow and here's the thing people are in such a hurry to get to the next step next step next step but if this is a forever relationship we don't need to rush it and we don't feel the need to rush it it's when we know something's off subconsciously or intuitively that we're in that like when's this going to happen when's it because we feel something's off and we we want to almost prove it wrong to get there but I feel like this is a very harm harmonious connection and I do feel like this connection could stand the test of time the one thing I'm going to say and the one thing I want to say again is take your time with it and not because you're going to find necessarily find something negative but enjoy the process of getting there because what is getting there getting there is like the end result right so enjoy the process of getting there enjoy the process of the getting to know each other and the dates enjoy the process of taking your time and being in this situation with this person take your time and just really enjoy getting to know each other that's the biggest message I have and not because anything negative is going to pop more so because they just want you to really be able to enjoy this process okay that's what I'm hearing for this right now and I do feel like that if you do take your time you're going to see everything exactly the way you need to see it for this situation okay love okay excellent I hope that answers you are so you are so welcome and I hope that answered your question yes absolutely good good good thank you for my you are welcome you are welcome thank you for calling in my love I'm going to take a question off the youtube chat and then um five six one you're going to be the next caller but on youtube Kirsten asking about healing my eye uh something with her eye healing uh asking about healing my eye so I'm going to say um anybody with anything for the eyes but Kirsten's eye all that needs to be healed cleared released has been healed I get a no we're going to heal clear release that and Kirsten what's real I hope I'm saying your name correctly what's funny is I feel that pulling up out the back like straight up out of my spine and I love that because I can literally feel it lifting out I hope that's helpful for you Kirsten um oh it looks like a burst blood vessel okay let's uh heal the nerves and the opcipital something lobe opcipital lobe let's clear heal release all that caused this and kept this and those two things also okay the by the way everybody I'm also on tiktok and on tiktok I do mostly um healings and clearings and today's healing on tiktok was for money and um it's it's really unique and I really really love this one so the clearing I did and I've done a lot of money well um abundance ones but this one's different because it's like the first part of the clearing or healing is while we were in the womb anything we picked up in the womb and the second part is anything pre womb to year eight which is when we are little spongy onesies and take on all the patterns programs and this is for money so any beliefs or programs or anything we picked up that stopping or blocking money pre womb womb to age eight is on tiktok now you can go enjoy that okay I'm going to go to the next caller 561 561 welcome to the show yeah hi hi hi Tony um thank you for taking my call hope you're enjoying your summer I send the summer already and I just want to know like but you know when my job um there's more much more money because right now I'm not making you know it's it's been you know um when I took the job I thought we'd be making more and it's not and you know I've been there six months and I was wondering is things going to get better there okay I need to ask love what's your first name Stacy Stacy thank you so much I just like to not say hey you or you um Stacy what state are you in love oh Florida but not the point I didn't get hit though no okay well that's good that's good I have a lot of friends in Florida and some of them are experiencing a bit of flooding right now but um I guess uh so Stacy the first thing I'm getting is um oh I'm asking a couple of questions before I give you your answer because I want I want to kind of know okay I feel like you're not going to quit this job I just feel like you're not going to quit I asked are you going to quit I get a no I asked are you going to get fired I get a no you're you're probably going to be here for a little bit oh oh no um the next thing no they they would never fire me yeah because I was at the last job for three years I was somebody referred us here because we were at the last job I was there till three years but they closed that was the problem that's why I'm not there but I was making more money at the other place but they closed okay so that's why we're here and some people just quit that because they weren't making the money that they were making at the other place and right now what I'm making is significantly less okay but I'm I'm like the type that wants to stay and longevity in a job and I you know it's better on a resume and everything so Stacy um what I'm getting for you and I'm going to be really super honest with you uh because that's you know I wish I could put fluff and stuff up people's button stuff but I can't because guides and angels are extremely honest they're brutally honest so that you can make your best decisions moving forward for you one of the things I'm hearing is this place cannot pay you more not now probably not ever it will be a very long time probably not what probably probably not not for a very long time um one of the things that I'm getting is that if you need more money in you're going to either have to switch companies or do something on the side now you could do something part-time on your on the side that is is if you choose if you're not bringing in enough money though one of the things and I'm gonna just um Stacy don't go any place but I'm going to mute you because there's just a bit of background noise and I don't want to um I don't want that to interfere um so what I'm gonna say Stacy is uh whatever you are doing right now you can keep doing it if you need or want more money in you are going to have to either switch companies or get another position that you do part-time when you're not working for example on the weekends or after work and I do know that right now medical transport companies not transporting people but transporting either medicines and or medical parts stuff from one place to the other is a pretty good side business and it pays pretty well I have I actually have an uncle um he and his wife do that and they make they're happy with the amount they make every area is different in what they pay um but they just deliver um medication to um like our retirement homes and nursing homes and such and they they love it they love it um and you can work different hours with something like that I don't know why I'm saying that maybe it's for you maybe it's for somebody else here's what I'm going to tell you I I of course am not the boss of you and I cannot tell you what to do but I can tell you these are your options if you decide to look for another position you will find one I don't think you're going to look for another position to quit this job and go to another one I feel like you might think about taking on a second position like a part-time position um I don't know what you're going to do to be honest I'm not getting a clear answer on that but I don't feel like this company can give you more money they just right now it's not in their budget to give it even if the the company has the money it doesn't mean they're going to give it out it doesn't mean it's allocated in the budget to employees so that's what I have for you Stacy I'm sorry it's not much better news for you but the truth of the matter here's the truth of the matter folks if you're with a company and I I don't care what company you're with or what you do once at least once a month you should send your resume out and a lot of people would disagree with this and that's okay then don't do it then don't if you disagree then don't do it however at least once a month check all the jobs out there and it should be on a friday because on fridays they post the people that they're firing because everybody gets let go on a friday and they have those posts up on thursday and friday or they've already been hiring for those posts I'm going to tell you go to companies that you want to work for and look at all of what they're hiring and see if any of it is attractive and just it's like fishing just throw your hat in the game reach above what you think you would normally reach above for if you're you're not working okay and here's why the company you're at will keep you where you're at for as long as they can typically if they hire people for management positions they hire outside of the company and they when they hire on new people they hire on at the new starting wage but if they can keep you where you're at they will so I say go fishing see what's out there at companies you want to work for and it's always best to find a job a new career or a new job while you have a job now I I was driving today and this beautiful realization came to me the job that is attractive or comfortable for you when you're unemployed is very different than the job that is comfortable and attractive to you when you're employed with a little bit of experience when you're unemployed and let's just say uh you're kind of needing work you're going to take the first thing that comes in even if it's a little guppy since we're on the fish thing but if you're working and you have a good work record and you've been employed for a while you're going to reach above your pay grade you're going to reach above the title that you currently have because you you deserve that you have that experience and you can now reach if they say no nothing ventured nothing gained right you're not if you don't get it you're already employed you're good don't worry about it right um it's same thing with um with a partner the partner that's attractive and comfortable when you first break up with somebody is probably somebody who's you know hurt and unhealed and and not the person you it's a rebound for a reason it's a bouncy toy for a reason my friends it is a straight up bouncy toy for a reason it's a ride and go for a reason so once you heal from the breakup and then you move on the person who's good who you are going to be attracted to is going to be a completely different person because they are also going to be healed and they are going to be a a different person all the way around and when you first break up with someone the person that you're attracted to is going to be similar to the person you just broke up with and you broke up for a reason just saying what i'm saying and what i'm saying is ride and go just ride and go if you're comfortable doing that if you're not then don't then don't but what you're attracted to in a place of lack or hurt or unhealed is very different than what you will be attracted to and comfortable with once you're healed and in that place okay so please by all means by all means while you have a job look for that new one okay that was a really long answer hey sal how are you uh i'm going to go to i think her name is kora baker kora any advice about my relationship with my boyfriend um well kora i do have a little advice for you and that advice i don't i don't want to say it the way i'm hearing it um i i keep hearing two words and i don't want to say those words because i don't have any context now when i hear let go that could mean of the partner or let go of the past or let go of you know somebody else or something else that's interfering with the relationship but kora there is something in this relationship that needs to be let go of if you would like to comment in the chat about that please let me know otherwise i'm going to go to the very next caller who is 954 954 what's your name and where are you calling from hi this is mary i'm calling princess florida hey mary how are you today a little distressed i had a problem with the kitty today and i lost it so i'm so sorry i'm just kind of upset and um because my mother was an animal lover too i thought maybe i could connect with her and see if she has any words to say regarding the situation okay so the song that i heard at the beginning of the show live and let live and let die is coming back again um i feel like this kitty is going to be crawling around you for quite sometime i don't feel like even though the kitty is is no longer physically here it's definitely i'm going to be spiritually around you uh what can i please i'm sorry can i please ask your mom's name first name oh alice alice okay um was alice or if not alice who is the bigger woman like physically a little bit bigger like fuller of a woman was your mom at one point a little bit fuller okay she's always rather petite she just tried to end a little wait but um you know she was never really full her mother was broad and fuller okay i'm who is the woman on the other side maybe an aunt or a grandma who was a little bit fuller because i i said your mom's name and the first thing i saw was this woman who was a little you know she had a little on her she was a little thicker if it's well her mother was a little shorter it may be a little on the heavier side okay okay well i'm gonna i'm not going to make you go through your whole ancestral line to get to the right person but i'm gonna say this is the first person who showed up if if later on it rings i think it could be her mother because usually moms and grandmoms show up together uh they're they're like uh in in all of it so the first thing alice wants to say and i cannot be the way she's saying it this is not me i cannot be more clear about this it was the best for everyone whatever happened uh as sad as it is it was the best for everyone there was no like no turning back at this point what i want to say to you is um that i'm i'm personally very sorry for what happened i know it's so painful to to lose a woman even my cat i rescued it from someone who didn't take care of it and left it on the street apparently to die in my complex and um so well i knew i knew the cat when it was ellen i knew she must have abandoned it so i took a chance i took it to the vet and um it i didn't know whether to put it to sleep but it got answered the prayer and took it anyway yeah and i hear you should uh i just i hear that you know whatever life this cat had with you was good and grateful but um it would have been okay i'm just hearing it didn't have a chance from the beginning is what i'm hearing um and we i understand i'm sorry go ahead it's pretty bad by the time uh it got to the stage when i saw it uh i think that she wasn't caring for it for a while and it was out of the heat so yeah and one of the things i'm hearing is she may have known when she let the cat go she may have known it was sick but couldn't care pay physically pay for the bills so she put it like kind of out hoping somebody who could pay for the bills or save it would be able to and sometimes people do that and it's unfortunate but in any case what i'm getting is what happened is exactly what was meant to happen and um the the cat what happened it could have happened sooner but it's okay that it happened the way it did and to just be at peace with everything because it was more than it was like i the way i'm gonna say this is the way i'm hearing it it was bonus life for the cat okay love it was i didn't catch the last it was bonus like bonus life like bonus time for the cat bonus bonus like the cat would have died like the cat if it hadn't been for you the cat would have died sooner but this because of you the cat got like bonus time okay and good bonus time loving loving bonus time um and and then your mom or your grandmom whomever this is is saying eat the strudel like make a strudel or eat the strudel something about like an apple strudel i don't know what that means to you my grandmother made those because she was german yeah okay then we know the woman who's a little bit fuller is your grandmother and that was the confirmation coming for sure i love that i'm always so so happy when that comes through for somebody when we're not sure who the like the next the second person is and then they they make a comment that confirms it for you so know your mom and your grandma oh yeah are always with you and they're going to be helping you over the next six months with some things um in your life okay love oh yeah i need their help they've always helped me so much and they both loved animals too so absolutely thank you very much for you are so i do appreciate that absolutely my blessings you i think oh you too you too thank you many blessings to you and i'm so grateful when i can help and it's it's um and the confirmations come through so thank you so much the next caller is going to be 914 so 914 hold on for a second um kora said i would like to know more about what you mean by letting go okay kora if you want to know more about that please call in the numbers eight four five two seven seven nine one three one i just feel like it will be easier for me to get that information during a conversation on the phone um i'm going to tell you right now kora who's ever on the other side for you and the letting go comment they're saying you know already but you might not want to you might not want to um admit it or you're not ready you're not whatever it is that needs to be let go of you're aware of it but you might not be ready to do it now i am going to say and i letting go something in this relationship needs to be let go of it could be drinking it could be smoking it could be partying it could be going out too much it could be social media i don't know you already should know though okay i'm going to go to the next caller who is 914 914 welcome to the show what's your name and where are you calling from kathryn from new york hey kathryn i'm good how can i help you a question um it's for my mom she's been having a difficult time with a home repair issue and i was wondering if you think i should get um an adjuster involved an independent adjuster or if you think now that i have some new information to present the insurance company i should just handle it myself um i i hear the word adjuster and does this have something to do with plumbing or pipes with price no yes yes like they're trying to underpay right yeah i feel they're trying to underpay for the damage okay and it is this um does is there any i i question and then i'll let them go is this does this whatever needs to be worked on does it have anything to do with plumbing or pipes um no okay i'm going to it's um plumbing would be involved in another part of the house though so i see where you're saying that but it's not the um like the biggest or the most pressing pressing issue but i want to throw that aspect in there too okay so what i'm getting is you may need to get a third party to validate the expense and i have like you said an adjuster or what do they call that when people give you um an estimate like an estimate yes get estimates um and say these are the estimates and what i would say is um call high end contractors to get estimates because they don't always if you get low end or the least they usually will pay what is the least they can okay so what i would do is get high end estimates right right and then also possibly an adjuster and i do feel like you do need to get somebody in there to look at it again because i feel like i may be hearing plumbing because there may be an there may be a little bit more to this than you know so make sure whoever's giving the estimate they really looked at like all the nooks and crannies of this all the behind the wall behind the scenes sort of thing of this um so that's what i'm getting for you and yes get get the estimates get the adjuster if you know here's what i say it when you're going up against an insurance company or um whatever and whatever it is you take all the evidence you can you take every piece of artillery with you or however you want to phrase that you have all the tools or all the presentations that you need because otherwise it's just going to prolong it because they're going to say uh no we need this or oh no this isn't and it sets you back to the beginning again so but don't back down do not back down right it's been going on for forever yeah yeah do not back down yeah get the estimates get high end estimates and then get an adjust and send them in and say these are the estimates that's it and and just say let us know when we will you know have that money and um see if in the meantime you can find an attorney that will handle it and charge the insurance company for the services that they're providing since the insurance company is not being cooperative okay but if the insurance company is not going to force go ahead love fine no go ahead oh no no i was saying um so an attorney and an adjuster but only an attorney only if only if an attorney only if they will have the insurance company get their money make the insurance company pay them okay don't let that come out of your pocket that kind of defeats the purpose okay insurance companies know how to play the long game and they know there's a deadline on things on things so it's kind of like hurry up and get everything to them and wait for their response and then hurry up and get everything to them and wait for their response but they play the long game because they know people will get so frustrated they'll just drop it don't get frustrated don't drop it okay yes yeah definitely yeah i feel so bad my mom's been going through it yeah so yeah that's it's always so difficult with insurance companies it really is it really is well i wish the both of you luck moving forward thank you god bless you thank you oh sweetie god bless you too and you are so welcome um i want to say hi to a couple of people who have uh come on sal is here um see see is here i think your name is c michael hey michael how are you so happy you could get to the live maris is here um and jennadine uh kora if i get more on that what needs to be let go of here's what i'm going to say if something happened kora between the two of you whatever it was and one of you may not be letting go go up even if you don't bring it up it just sits in your mind i'm not sure they're just saying something needs to be let go of and i i wish i could give you more on that um okay i'm gonna go to the next caller who is i can't remember who the nine one four is it nine one four everybody did i just say nine one four is the next caller i don't remember oh my goodness i don't remember i'm i hope nine one four is the next hey nine one four uh welcome to the show i know and you just took me okay thank you sweetie thank you you just took me yeah i sometimes forget okay two zero three two zero three welcome to the show what's your name and where are you calling from i join me this is michelle i'm calling from georgia hey michelle how can i help you well um i had to tell him today that my job that i will not relocate to california so this will transition me out of the company and all of a sudden today i started getting calls from companies i started like and not specific companies but like things i've been dreaming about i said well if i'm gonna do something why don't i do ai or why don't i do robotics and that's who i got calls from like out of the blue i didn't apply and uh i'm just wowed so i was wondering if you if some you know i know at least one of these is way out in oregon i mean but that's uh i mean it's chance of a lifetime i don't have any degree in robotics or you know yeah well most people i was wondering what you saw for me okay so most people with ai robotics um cyber security most people don't have degrees in that they're willing to pick up a good person and train them i think if you get the opportunity you should run with it a lot of these positions might be able to be remote positions after training but either way if it's your dream just go for it and even you know yeah even if if the first or second one doesn't work out keep going you're gonna find the right one to work with okay love yeah yeah okay oh thank you you are so the big move is if i take one of these it's i don't know if i can do it i mean it's it's a lot you know it's a lot we go cross country with six cats so um here's what i'm going to say uh sometimes sometimes it's just time to start over sometimes it's just time to let go of everything we've known and do something we've never done before um animals acclimate very very quickly and what i will also say is perhaps you know perhaps it's remote and think of it one day out of it one day out of time over over it being you know a whole big life change and know that when opportunities come i would rather take the opportunity and see where it leads me than say no and live with the regret of what could have been okay exactly exactly that's what i'm thinking well maybe i'll i'll schedule a reading with you when uh in in in a little while like maybe a week or so that would be wonderful i would absolutely love that i would absolutely love that okay love uh good luck please anybody reaching out to you reach back out to them and get on to the companies that you would love to work for in those departments and just start filling things out also okay love okay thanks you are welcome you're absolutely welcome i hope you have an amazing day jenna biv has joined us and mayors um thank you so

affects my credit score do you think i'm showing up yes yes okay 100 yes 100 um i feel like once it gets to court it might be a bit of a negotiation i do feel like yeah i feel like it's going to be a middle of the road sort of thing um i do feel like prior to court you should try to reach out to him and give him one more opportunity to settle everything in the best way that you possibly can but if you can't take every record every everything you have to court with you and then just let the judge know or whomever you're in front of know listen i just really need this to be clean moving forward so that i can um rent at a reasonable like reasonable rate or you know not not have a black mark on my uh rental thing because it's crazy finding a place and with a good rental history it is it is super crazy out there right now i don't know what's going on i do not know love i'm bringing him to court but i'm sorry i'm bringing him to court for tenant harassment because he took the door off so it's a tenant harassment kind of situation okay yeah i don't i don't believe i don't okay here's what i'm going to say um and i'll give you a funny little story of my own um depending upon what state you're in i do not believe it's legal to take the door off however however if he says he was remodeling or doing work on the house and he can say that whether it is true or not he might be able to get away with it i was um living in a place and i was getting ready to move and the landlord came in and totally and i was getting ready to move but i couldn't move yet but took out my toilet to replace it but replaced the floor first half his place back i just want to clear my name yeah okay so because he was remodeling i could technically go three days without a toilet i don't think so you know what i do you know what i'm saying he just he had just bought the building he wanted to get it up to date so here's what i'm going to say depending upon what he says in court will determine where it goes i do feel like you should i don't even know if he can clear your name i think that what i'm hearing right now that truly has to go through the court system if it's already in there but i do feel like there will be a negotiation and there will be an amicable they're not saying favorable but an amicable settlement okay love okay that sounds good but you do see me because i'm going to be trying i'm kind of finding a new place anyway but i'll go to court if it's the amicable settlement settlement that's fine i'm leaving right after that now and i excellent now i don't again i don't believe any landlord any place can remove your door there's just safety issues with that so i think just on that premise alone and how long the door was removed for can be very uh what do they call that solid evidence um however however it also depends upon the story that he brings to court i think i feel like i hear the word i hear the statement mud slinging contest so for whatever that means for your situation love but i do wish you luck i really do wish you luck i am going to go to 216 216 how are you today yes hi tony this is patricia thank you for taking my call absolutely patricia how can i help you yes all of them before uh got out of sweetwood ohio last week and now i'm in los cruces new mexico in a gospel rescue mission by last choice that's my only option uh i need to know um if yes

number one go to churches and go to stores like smaller stores go to all different places and where they have bulletin boards still and um look at what's available as far as like people renting out a place um the second thing i'm going to say is check out some smaller um papers people still do advertise um places for rent in papers and i would look for what they consider like a one room unit like a loft over anything else just to start with i don't think this is your final destination i feel like you're going to keep trekking further they're pointing this way which on a map i'm further west okay you're going to be going further west which is if you're watching that way according to them further west and a little bit south wherever that lands you and i'm sorry i can't tell you the exact place that that is that that's going to land you but you're going to go a little further west and a little south and you're going to land there and you're going to have some luck or some some um you're going to find some really good i don't want to call it luck but some stability there you're going to find a place to stay you're going to find a place to lay your head at night and it won't be like where you are now i feel like you are going to find a place that is more stable i also feel like you're going to find some work i do feel like you should be looking for some um i want to say remote work to start with but whatever it is you're going to have um this uh these opportunities are going to be coming into you but it's a little bit further west and south and i'm sorry i even if i had a map in front of me i probably wouldn't be able to tell you the exact location of that however i do feel like within a month you will be moving a little bit relocating to this new area i feel like somebody might i hear someone said something to somebody so you might hear this from someone who heard it from somebody about this area that you're going to be going to don't worry that it's not your final that where you are is not your final destination just while you can trek it a little bit further west and a little bit south not far it's like a town or two or yeah like a town or two over um and up i don't feel like is south up or is north up i think south is down okay west and then south 90 seconds how did i make it this far in life when i don't know what direction south even is oh my god i think south is down even though i keep pointing up oh my gosh i'm so sorry west and then south and that's where you're going to end up and and things will fall into place for you love i wish you luck i wish you safety on your journey you're almost there i would like to thank everybody for joining me i will be back Monday at noon Monday at noon for um another show if you did not get through

Now continuing this edition of the Sports Mac Zone where the football the contentious pillar three that constitutes 14 of the 56 votes for January's Jamaica Football Federation election was at the center of most debate at Sunday's extraordinary general meeting in Kingston. Three of the seven affiliates in pillar three came up for ratification by Congress with the past National Players Association and Coaches Association getting the nod. However, beach football which was ratified at the board level did not receive the support of Congress. JFF President Michael Ricketts sought to explain. One was was deferred because of a simple misunderstanding. The document that the GenSec has would have named a particular member who said that he did not confirm being part of the the group. But then when we looked it was his provisionalist that was sent. So he is not in fact a member of the group. He was just on that first list. It was deferred to be re-looked at subsequently. The other two were voted on. Currently the exact numbers but in favor of supporting the board's recommendation. Now the other four pillar three affiliates is that the Schools Association, Intercal, the Referees Association and the professional football Jamaica Limited PFJL did not get board approval last week and have on to the 20th of December to submit relevant documents. Michael Ricketts is expected to be challenged by current Vice President Raymond Anderson and both men issued statements about their views on what has transpired so far in this contentious build-up to the election. 37 years on the board. We were a hundred and here votes and we found out that the 13th wasn't a good number. We actually condense it. We want to move away from that with FIFA assistant. Spend years and months and a lot of meetings trying to really move from the 13th to 56th. And what I've seen over the time with some of my colleagues and they want to fix it in a way that it still stay within a small group. That's my concern and we'll hear more about it and in detail because we're putting something together. For another meeting tomorrow we'll have a press but for the record I'm not really happy with all the things over there because we are still not able to widen the net as planned. If you read the constitution it was perfectly legitimate and legal but like I said people's interpretation I mean may differ but what we have done is totally within the articles of this constitution. We understand that there's a representative from FIFA who has been in the office. What is the specific reason for that FIFA representative? You know I wanted them to say it publicly. I personally invited them. I Michael Ricketts personally invited them. So there is a consultant here but we invited some other FIFA persons to just look at what was happening in relation to the consultant. The consultant was sent here by FIFA to just help us and to regularize certain things and based on reports and based on the visit that these FIFA persons I think we are on track. We're doing the right thing. What has been the response from one the consultant and the other FIFA individuals who are here? Well the consultant of course he would make some suggestions that we probably would challenge. We probably would not in full agreement with so we have discussions with him because like he has said easier to help so sometimes he would make some suggestions and would want to think that yeah let's discuss it. Let's review I mean the board might not be in agreement with this but these are the challenges that we do have. Certainly when these other three I think members from FIFA came they met with both parties. They met with Mr. Cole. They met with the GenSec so they would have had discussions with the consultant and with the secretary based on the meeting that I would have had with them. They are now waiting. They've given personally asked them for a checklist so that we can look to see exactly where we are at. So they have provided that checklist and we are going through to ensure that we meet what requirements are desired. I know Carville Stuart had suggested last week that we have to be careful from a Jamaica Football Federation standpoint that we don't end up in normalization like Trinidad and Tobago and there is a concern that given a lot of what is going on we may even be close. How would you respond to that rubbish? Nothing of the sort. Nobody has ever mentioned that. In fact in fact as we speak FIFA has sent us a grassroots coach that we have signed a contract with. That's the kind of support we're getting. There is a coaching convention that we will be held here. I mean FIFA we're having issues with us. I mean they would not be reaching out to us in so many areas but we do have challenges and there are I think 22 countries in our group. 10 of those 22 countries are under financial restrictions. So it's not a unique situation for us and when one considers that we have 12 teams six on either side of the gender.  We are going to be faced with challenges. We are probably the leading light in the Caribbean. So we participate in almost every single Caribbean and Conca-Coff competition. So that in itself presents challenges but I mean with Adidas on board we are navigating and hopefully we'll be okay soon. Why are we on restricted funding and how soon do you think we will get out of that situation? It's been a while. I think our former accountant and when FIFA came here the first response was that he wasn't cooperative. He doesn't respond to emails. He's not timely in his reporting. Now we have a brand new accounts department. We had given Mr. Cole the permission to interview and ultimately to employ these persons. So he would have been the lead role in interviewing and employing some of these staff members. So we know virtual a brand new set of employees in the accounts department and we're just hoping that from here on we will be able to meet our timelines. I mean and there are not too many things because we have asked Mr. Cole to just tell us what do we need to do and there are not many things. There are not many things you need to do and there are not impossible things. Is there a pathway on a timeline? There is a pathway. We have created a pathway. Mr. Cole and of course the Gensik, Amosel, Fudalspeed have sat and of course the accounts department and we have created a path getting out of restrictions. We are waiting on the 2023 audit report and then we'll see what happened thereafter. Is Michael Ricketts confident that at the end of January 14, 2024 he will be returned as GFF president? Absolutely. I'm going to outline in a manifesto what my achievements are second to none. I'm not blowing my own trumpet but this GFF and I tell you sometimes the things that we make big issues off and it's simple media craft these things. For example we're coming from Australia and two days after we handed over all equipment to a shipping company and the goods got here one day late and it made the headlines globally one day late. It was supposed to outcome the money and it came the Tuesday and it was all over the world are we incompetent and this had nothing to do with the GFF and there are so many other examples. It has the relationship between yourself and your vice president Raymond Anderson been like since he announced his candidacy and it is clear that he's going to be the man to challenge you. You know when I heard that Raymond wanted to get into a contest I called him and I didn't say to him that I understand that you want to run but I said Raymond this is the time when we need to come together we need to sit craft away forward for football. He said yes yes yes when Norse once was forthcoming I asked Sheridan to call him. Sheridan called him I said the president he's received to do a work out. I called Pearson which is one of his strongman as a person I would need to meet with Raymond because I want to put Raymond as part of my team. He said yeah man yeah man I haven't heard from him in the next thing. Obviously he has not said to the board that I am getting into an election but it's obvious that he is but you know when I see what is happening now the kind of disruption that election is causing I am very disappointed and unhappy that he took that decision but that won't hurt our relationship it ought not to. I mean we've all been in football Raymond been vice president before I got into football but you know I just want us to have a good relationship work together in the interest of sport because like I've said football most influence the psyche and we most understand that the social well-being of so many young boys and girls depending or depends on football so that's where we want to go in the near future to ensure that we provide that kind of support and provide that kind of a social intervention that we positively impact. Yeah well Ricardo and Mariah the gloves are up I can say because the first time that I heard a reaction in the media from Michael Ricketts re Raymond Anderson his vice president challenging him it didn't have this stone he pretty much said well you know these are the things are like that sometimes but now he says he's disappointed and unhappy that Raymond Anderson has taken this position to run against him so the gloves are off. Yeah he says he's disappointed and unhappy but then he continues by saying you know he just wants football to do well you know he just wants the sport to win so we're getting like mixed reactions for me I'm looking forward to the next segment because there's a lot to unpack from this interview there's so much thing he speaks about them being in line with the Constitution and I know of you has picked that up he spoke about the fact that the normalization issue is rubbish that is stuck in my brain so there's no reason for them to be normalized for Jamaica to be normalized he also spoke about he himself inviting a FIFA representative to Jamaica so if if they were going to normalize the GFF and Jamaica football there was no way that the FIFA was going to invest in all the different things that they've been doing so team segment two the next segment is when we talk anything next segment all right don't go anywhere yes so we're following up in this segment on a lot of the things you would have heard in the preview of segment with the vice president Raymond Anderson speaking and for most of the segment we heard from the current president of the Jamaica Football Federation Michael Ricketts of course the presidents of elections set for January 14 next year and I want to get Ricardo's comment first because he didn't quite address the issue that we left the last segment with that the gloves are off Ricardo because there has been a change in tone from the president Michael Ricketts read his vice president challenging him and he used words like unhappy and disappointed that Raymond Anderson has decided to run against him and the disruption it has caused which is a little different from what I heard probably six seven weeks ago when it became evident that Raymond Anderson would be challenging him but I think it's even more evident now that Raymond Anderson is going to be challenging him and and the challenge all of a sudden I think is starting to seem real and genuine and I think the president of the Jamaica Football Federation would be realizing that and I think in many ways is responding to it as well I do want to get back though to the first issue that we discussed or brought up in that first segment and it has to do with the decision that was made at Congress yesterday with the in pillar three the past national players association and the coaches association getting the none but beach football not getting the none and now I listened carefully to the response from the president Michael Ricketts saying that it was a simple misunderstanding and this is where I have a massive issue Lance and Mariah now we all know that this JFF administration has been characterized by a number of fall ups a number of administrative fall ups and I think in many instances this is another one of them so the president is saying well what happened is that the names were on a provisional list and then the the wrong list came which was a provisional list and not the current list and for me I don't know that you can say that is a simple misunderstanding in the context that the opposition is saying that the incumbent Michael Ricketts and his team have been going out of their way to form new associations to fit or affiliates to fit into pillar three affiliates that were registered only weeks ago and secure votes for themselves presumably to secure votes for themselves and in this specific instance what you had was an individual coming out ahead of the extraordinary Congress and saying well I never gave consent for my name to be part of any beach football association I don't know about that and then the response to that is going to be it was a simple misunderstanding given the context of the discussions that we've had in recent weeks and given the context of what the opposition the real solid team led by Raymond Anderson have said I don't know that that is an adequate response coming from the GFF president and I think at best from the point of Michael Ricketts it does not look good. No it does not look good and it begs the question as to how desperate will we go in order to attain all these extra votes because for me you're hearing it from the man himself seeing that you know I didn't really give permission for that and there are other bodies as well on the waiting list you know who have I think legit candidacy to get on the list and they're not on it so for me it's just not a good look. Yeah but Ricardo I want to say that your assessment of Ricketts' comment that what he described as a simple oversight or simple misunderstanding which you categorize as a colossal problem not not a simple problem it could be argued that Ricketts is being consistent because when you spoke with him yesterday he spoke about his accomplishment speak for themselves as if his GFF administration has been excelling in all of these areas and that is not how the general public sees it so there appears to be a disconnect in how Ricketts assesses things to what the real world sees. And the media was blamed Ricardo you were there as in when something happens the media runs with the story in a negative manner so a lot of default you were there Ricardo was attributed to the way in which the story is written and not that they're the facts. Well listen I hear you Mariah I don't even want to comment too much on that because I think as media we have a job to do and we try to do it in the best way possible but to your point Lance I think you make a very good point because while I was doing the interview as well I was trying to connect with a lot of what Michael Ricketts was saying because as you pointed out Lance it is so different from a lot of what we hear publicly and so maybe you are right that what is happening here there is a disconnect between how Michael Ricketts sees the performance of his administration versus how the general public sees the performance of the administration. I just want to say this quickly I think what Michael Ricketts is thinking about when he thinks about the performance of his administration he's thinking about the fact that the reggae girls qualified for two World Cup tournaments under his administration he's thinking about the fact that the Adidas sponsorship came under his administration and things like that the general public is thinking that the reggae girls had to strike ahead of the Gold Cup qualifying campaign because they were not paid. The general public is thinking about the reggae boys having to come to the media because of how they were being treated by the JFF administration. The regular public is thinking about all the flight mishaps with various national teams from the junior level to the women to the senior level and all the complaints that have come in regard to let's say messes with flights with transportation and so I think that's where the disconnect is that Michael Ricketts is thinking about a lot of the end result while the general public has been thinking about a lot of the complaints that have come from the players and a lot of the issues that have been broadcast for the entire world to see. Yeah and you say the general public and it goes beyond that because you spoke with Stuart Stephenson Ambassador Stuart Stephenson yesterday who is a former challenger for the presidency who was defeated by Ricketts but he has been a president of Kingston and St Andrews Football Association and a man with football experience stretching more than 40 to 50 years and he said yesterday that in assessing Ricketts' performance as a JFF president or his administration there have been too many missed opportunities and too many situations where they have bungled issues so it's not just the general public that has a negative view of the performance of the JFF administration under Ricketts. I guess it would be easy for you to say that Stuart Stephenson would be opposing him because he didn't win against him but I think those comments are generally accepted by a lot of people in the football world. And I think you speak about Ambassador Stephenson there was a strong suggestion from him as well that it is time for a change well more than a suggestion I think he said it in the conversation I had with him where he said it is time for a change and that Ricketts given all the mishaps that his administration has had maybe it is time for someone else to get an opportunity. I wasn't convinced and maybe one of these days we'll get Ambassador Stephenson on and he could probably correct me if I'm wrong and you know he's a man in the law field so I have to be very careful here but I didn't get the impression that he was convinced that Raymond Anderson was a great candidate necessarily because what he said specifically was well Ricketts has had his opportunity someone else it's probably time for someone else to get theirs as well he also said that the football could use Ambassador's style of leadership right now but he did concede that because of his law practice that he had not considered running even though he had been approached by individuals saying we would love you to step forward and challenge but he's pretty much said that's not gonna be the case. And I can understand that remember it's the same sentiment that a lot of people echo that Raymond Anderson is coming from the same camp he's coming from the same organization and the fact that he's been there because I heard Raymond Anderson speaking to this he's been there for some time when people think change they think a brand new person somebody who can bring fresh ideas a different format so you said we're not sure if he said that we're just analyzing how he said it and what was said. Yeah but one of the things that we have to point out here is that one of the things that makes this election so gripping is that there is a strong feeling among the football fraternity that they don't necessarily feel that Raymond Anderson is a brilliant replacement as the president so that is not something that you can dismiss either but I think a lot of people feel that Ricketts's administration has not been successful yeah I mean I know you he will point out to the qualification of the girls and so on but the girls have been through a lot as you mentioned Ricardo in fact not on the Ricketts administration but the JFF had one at one point about eight ten years ago abandoned the football program for women yes because of a lack of funds and and issues and so on and the JFF in truth cannot take responsibility for the upturn of the reggae girls they cannot that's the fact it is the it is the ambassador Sidella Marley that came in and injected life into the program no it could have happened without the JFF's assistance there's we have to say that but I would feel I would feel a little disingenuous if I was the JFF president taking credit for the girls qualifying for two World Cups yeah and there and there's a lot of people feel that they qualified for the World Cup in spite of the JFF and there in lies the disconnect lands where the public feels that a lot of the achievements have been in spite of the Jamaica Football Federation while Michael Ricketts will spin to say it is because of and so therein lies the disconnect I also want to make the point quickly there was something that Michael Ricketts said 10 of 22 federations I think in this region are under financial restriction then he went on to say that Jamaica would be one of the more prominent federations within the region leading light of the Caribbean yeah leading light and I would like to say it is because Jamaica is a leading light of the Caribbean why you do not expect them to be in a situation like this and the focus should really be why are we in a situation like this and not that others are in a similar situation that for me is not a good enough response to why we find ourselves in well first of all the JFF has consistently complained about a lack of funds if you are complaining about a lack of funds when there is funding left on the fee for table that we cannot access because of this restriction then you have to ask yourself the question why are we unable to access it why are we on the restriction and the response to that cannot be it is not good enough to say well 10 of 22 nations are there are 12 who aren't which means that they are 12 who are doing the right things necessary not to be on the financial restriction is what stood out for me he went on to tell you that he has a brand new account department because the last one was not responding in a timely manner and all those different things yeah but but they are still on the fee for restrictive funding restricted but that was a response because I wrote down he said that that's how they addressed when the problem happened first yeah but there are no on restrictive funding for about five or six years or this seems to be a more recent development in terms of the change in the the the financial team but you are right it is still a number of yeah and for me is still an issue but I didn't like the idea that you're telling me that 10 of 22 are on the restrictive funding because for me that's not good yeah and the point you're making just to put an exclamation mark on it Ricardo is that in reality he the JFF is failing in its financial responsibilities yes and he's saying well others are failing as well yeah so you're accepting that you're failed if you admit that you are failing yes so you cannot be commended for a failing grade you're just saying we are not the only ones who are failing the one thing I'll say though Lance and Mariah is you use the correct word Lance this is going to be a gripping JFF election build up and I think we are in for we're in for some good times as media maybe not if you are part of the JFF at the moment let's take a break


Today, I have the pleasure of speaking with Steve Ehrlich from Voyager. How are you today? I'm good, Tracy. How are you doing? Let's just start with a big congratulations. Today you just announced that you crossed half a billion dollars of assets under management. What are you guys thinking over there? How are you doing this? It's a really exciting day for us. A little more than like 12 months ago, December 31, 2019, we announced on our financials five million dollars of customer assets, so 100x growth in less than 13 months. It just shows the adoption. It shows how effective we are in bringing your true crypto agency broker to the market and the value propositions that we bring with our product, with trading and interest bearing, and people are really coming to the product. For us, it's a milestone. It's one of we think of many future milestones, expecting ourselves to get to two billion of assets at some time in the future here, near future. So we just continue to grow. We're excited by where we've been. Of course. We had just been discussing, before we started this interview, you gave me a wonderful answer about why this is working for you. I mean, a lot of companies start, they've got the best of intentions, but what is helping Voyager get to the next level and just be so damn successful? Focused execution. That's really what it is. We have a game plan. We stick toward game plan. We don't let distractions get in our way. They sometimes come in the world, but we get ourselves refocused on exactly what we want to do. And I think that's really important to any company. One of the things I like to say is that when we bring something to the market, we want to be the best at that. We don't want to be average. So I don't think anyone ever strives to be average. And as a company, we're not striving to be average. We're striving to be the best. And that's the mindset within all our employees. And as we continue to grow, mindset of new employees coming on board, we want people who want to be the best at what they do. And that's our continued execution plan. Stay great, be great, strive for greatness. Speaking of great, what's the greatest crypto? I think, like I mentioned to you earlier, is that if I didn't say this, my community would shoot me. But it's true anyway. The VGX token is my favorite crypto. And it's something that we have. It's within our ecosystem. It's a rewards token. It's for loyalty, program and rewards. One of the big rewards is that you get extra interest if you hold a certain amount of tokens.  And then on top of that, over the next couple of weeks, we're bringing out even a deeper plan for rewards and loyalty and get people to think about our rewards program as much as earning up on the American Express side of the world, where you want to move up to the platinum card, to the black card. That's what we're trying to do, get people to earn their way to higher levels and therefore get even more benefits. So it's all about loyalty. Customers matter. Customers are the most important thing that we have outside of security. Customers, you know, it's one in one A, you know, and we've got to bring product and our token is a really core component of that. Well, I'll tell you, I couldn't agree with you more. And speaking of that, you know, you came out on the Canadian Stock Exchange. Canadians are saying to me, Trace, we want in. How do we, when can we open an account? What's an update? Do you have an update for us? Yeah, we're hopefully soon, we're working with the regulators, everything we do, the recent acquisition in France, where we picked up and acquired a regulated entity. We like to work in regulated environments. So we're working closely with the Ontario Securities Commission to bring our product to market. Again, we want to give consumers the security and the trust that they deserve. You know, I look at the landscape in Canada. I know what the products look like and nobody's doing what we're doing. Nobody's bringing the security. Nobody's a public company and the trust that we can. So we expect to have it out, hopefully, you know, with the regulatory approval sometime by the end of March. And again, I think we'll be the industry leader in Canada because of what we bring to consumers and then they could trust us. Fantastic. Dare I ask you what we as shareholders should anticipate in the upcoming quarter? I think January has gotten off to a great start for us as we put out in our press releases. We expect to, you know, significantly exceed what we've done in the December quarter and what we announced for December. We're on pace for a really good January. I think we announced five million of revenue in January. We did three and a half million give or take for the entire December quarter. That's just one month. So we're seeing accounts grow significantly. The assets grow a really good quarter. We're working on, as I mentioned, as you asked about Canada. We're working on a debit card as well. So maybe they'll get in by the end of the quarter, maybe shortly thereafter. And then after that, working on margin product, credit card product, working with Visa on some of their fast track programs. And so we're looking to really expand over 2021. We just announced a raise and so we're going to put that money to good use. Well, Steve, as always, it's such a pleasure. Thank you for joining us today. Thank you for having me, Tracy.


as we take a look at the full-time highlights here in this one and Wotowski had opportunities here.  Javain Bryan and Thomas looking for a runner, deciding to take the shot. That was a magnificent save from Briscoe, you know, coming up from there. Then this one went through Blair and then deflection came off, came Javain Thompson with the goal in the 13th minute and home line they were ahead. Thompson with his first this season and then opportunities here and the Bryan with the effort that was blocked and Devante Walker with the follow-up well over the top. Then Javain Bryan's effort came off the woodwork so close again. Told you Waterhouse had your chances, he had more in the second half. That's another brilliant save from Briscoe, you know. And then then out of Thomas' effort and Afiba Chambers was in the way heading it over the top. Fletcher, ball inside and the header wider the mark from Shamari Dallas. Then Sharp playing this one through to Clinton just can't seem to convert Andre Clinton and then Ron B Smith. What a block that was from Ricardo Campbell.  How did he not convert? We're still not sure. And then the last bit of action again blocks all over the place, home line coming out with a win. Waterhouse with 17 shots, 4 on target, home line with 8 shots, 1 on target, 15 fouls committed by Humberline, 10 more than Waterhouse. And we see Waterhouse in the majority of the corners at 11. Humberline with just 3 and Waterhouse as they sought the equalizer got more possession of this one at 56%. I'm here with Ricardo Campbell, man of the match for Humberline. It was a really doggy defensive performance today. What do you make of the game first of all? First of all, congratulations to my team. They're putting a wonderful shift, coaching staff as usual from the field to the match. So it was a hard thought, but we get the victory that we come from far. I'm hearing that your nickname has something to do with Broom. I'm sure you swept up everything in the defense today. Yeah, Broom, we're backing on not no long time. From Rago Kamande, so big up, 7-0 effort, we'll see him where.  I'm sure this is giving you a lot of confidence going forward. Yeah, so we'll go back to the field now and come back again for the next one. One game at a time. All right, thank you very much. All right, man of the match. Now moving on to...


In Mozambique, 80% of people depend on agriculture and food production. Fish, meat and vegetables are part of the culture, but fisheries decline in recent years have led to fish scarcity and increase of prices. Also, poor production techniques and high costs of farming have made fish a delicacy that few can afford. Many people rely on starchy foods and vegetables, leading to unbalanced diets that lack protein. Recent cyclones devastated the country, destroying lives and livelihoods and creating new challenges for food security and nutrition. The COVID-19 pandemic added to the challenge of maintaining fragile food systems. Thousands of farmers have been affected. Grassa Michelle, patroness of the historic site of Shilin Benner, former First Lady of Mozambique and of South Africa, is a strong advocate for nutrition, women and youth empowerment. She asked FAO to work with her foundation to rebuild the agricultural food systems in the province of Gaza, placing aquaculture at the core of local transformation. FAO is promoting integrated aquaculture as a way to generate fish production and create jobs for young people and women. That's critical for protecting households from more climate shocks and building resilience to global shocks such as COVID-19. In Shilin Benner, FAO is providing assistance and capacity building on new technologies and business skills in an integrated project where aquaculture, agriculture and livestock complement each other. It's about giving men and women new opportunities to generate their own production using innovative integrated aquaculture solutions. The project aims to restart local food production with an integrated system that includes fish, livestock and crops. Develop fish farming, recycle waste and save energy while maintaining ecological balance. Build capacity for women and youth from local agricultural schools. Despite the challenges imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the project has already proven to be a success. Almost a year since it began, participants have produced 16 tonnes of fish, 2.5 hectares of maize and sweet potatoes and bred chickens and rabbits. Many people, particularly local women and young students from two polytechnic schools have benefited from FAO's training as well as research and development. They have learned good agricultural practices using good seeds and feeds, fertilization and irrigation techniques that need for markets and marketing. This project gives them reasons to believe they can start their own business on fish farming, chickens, maize, beans or other value chain. Improving nutrition and increasing resilience to climate change, threats and crises is essential for the people of Mozambique. It can only be achieved by building better and sustainable food systems.


Hey you guys this is a new video I'm having by the way this is a sponsored video just want to let you guys know that new me sent me a styling tool a curling wand to do my hair now I'm super excited about this I have used a curling wand on three occasions to which was what for my wedding for my wedding look and for my best friend's wedding I used a curling wand now I've only been able to do my entire hair one time because it takes a very long time my hair has already been blown out this was two days ago and this is what the curling wand looks like now they come in three different colors I believe and I wanted it in pink it retails for $89 but I do believe they have a 30% sell going on depending on when I upload this video so this is what it looks like just very typical on off switch I kind of do wish that it had a thermostat temperature reading so where you could adjust the temperature but that's okay on off okay fine it also comes with a little brochure here if I could open it up it just gives you directions on how to basically use the tool they also sell flat iron too by the way but I don't straighten my hair we already talked about that but I do I will use a curling wand every now and then so yeah very very nice very nice so what I'm going to be using very very basic you guys I have my style other styling tools here combs hair clips I'm gonna be using the cream of nature organ oil anti humidity gloss shine mist to spray on my hair and then we're gonna do very small sections I'm hoping to do my entire head that's it's gonna take me minimum an hour minimum an hour so you guys are not gonna see everything but I'm gonna try to get as much footage in okay right you guys so taking my hair in medium to small to medium sections and curling the hair around around the wand excuse me so using a curling wand it takes a little bit of time to learn there's a little bit of a learning curve there so you have to really take your time yeah this one didn't turn out how I want to but I've only used it like I said this is probably my fourth time and it's been almost three years since I've used a curling wand so took me a bit of a motion to get back into it but after a while I got to hang up it one thing I do want to say is that I use that are gone spray by cream of nature sporadically not on every section because my hair is already I believe my hair is already protected with the hair oil that I use previously and I will be using hair spray going in between now I do want to apologize you guys in the middle of this footage I have no idea what happened but the footage got kind of blurry and I do apologize for the quality yeah here it got a little bit blurry here for the next two or three minutes so I do apologize so going in again like I said curling the hair around the wand I'm not using a glove and I did burn myself a few times but that's okay I would say if it's your first time you want to ensure that you're using the glove you see that but hey I'm making it work out so it's the end it's going to work out I have so much hair again you can hide some of the imperfections all right you guys so do you see a little bit of holding spray to help hold those curls so two things about this curling wand yeah I don't like the fact that you can't tell how hot it gets my other curling wand it does have a temperature setting on it and so I could either bring it up or down depending on you know how hot I want it to go which is really important when you have natural hair secondly this thing kept falling off the counter sink I had to end up going into my bathroom you guys didn't see that footage of course but 30 minutes into it I had to go into my bathroom to finish my hair and it kept slipping off the actual counter because it doesn't have a I guess you call it like a clasp or a lever to you see it is bare there's nothing to keep it on the counter and I'm like girl I don't need my feet to be burning no so anyway y'all this is an hour and 20 minutes into curling my hair I did not end up finishing it at all that would have been another 30 minutes so we're gonna do a huge pompadour and yeah that is it I'm gonna give you look at that yes girl very very pretty and so if you wanted to maintain this you look you could use flexi rods but I didn't so it is what it is so thank you guys so much for watching and thank you to new me for sending me this styling tool I hope you guys enjoyed the video take care


Hello? Okay, great. So, I'm going to talk about income distribution, but functional, the functional income distribution, that is, the distribution of income between factors of production. And let me, oh, sorry, sorry, that's joint work with Andrés Davila now at Zurich, Manuel Fernández, at Los Andes and myself. So, there's a lot of recent literature about the decline of labor income share. There are like, I don't know, at least 10 papers I can recall now describing global decrease in labor income share. But this, this stylized fact has something beyond. In particular, when we talk about, for instance, direct technological change, we think about both labor-saving innovations and skilled bias innovations. So, the story, let's say, we will have to look not only at labor income share, but at raw labor income share, human capital income share. And when we go to the capital income, we may have to take a look at reproducible capital income share, namely physical capital and natural capital income share. So, this is what we do. We discuss how to measure factor income shares, taking into account these four factors of production. We propose a methodology to have these measures, and then we build a data set. As I was saying before, decoupling, then we see the evolution of all these shares, and we decouple this evolution, looking at prices, factor prices and average factor productivity. So, let me go to the paper. So, we build this data set for 55 countries for all the years between 1995 and 2015. Then we describe this data, and we highlight... So, we add two very important distinctions. The first one I already told you. We can talk about reproducible and not reproducible factors, but also we can see the evolution of these factor shares for high income and low and middle income countries in a separate way. And then finally, as I was saying before, we have this... We can decouple the evolution of factor shares. Finally, we suggest some possible explanations. So, let me go to the methodology. I will go very fast if someone wants to discuss in detail what we do, we can do it later. So, as I was telling you before, there are lots of papers describing the evolution of labor income shares. There are some papers where they build a panel. In general, there are small panels. Some of these panels separate physical capital from natural capital. Then we have this set of papers, the separate natural capital and physical capital. Then Sturgill, he builds a database with four factors, but you have small databases. In any case, what we do is we have the whole dynamics, and with all due respect, I think we have a better methodology than Sturgill. So, let me go fast. What we do... Sorry. No. No, so fast. Okay. So, what we do first is we compute total labor shares. This is a standard. We take the pen rule data tables and we follow the methodology of Gaolin, Bernanke, etc. This is quite standard. Then we split labor income between human capital and raw labor using set like an LAES data sets, but what we do is we run means and regressions for all countries and all years, and then we recover the constant in all of these regressions, and we assume this is the raw labor income. Then the remaining income is human capital income. We have, for data availability, we fill some gaps using, predicting using artificial intelligence. Then, to separate between physical capital and natural capital, we use the methodology of Casselian failure. What they do is there's this data set from the World Bank where they have natural capital, yes, natural capital for the whole set of countries, and what they do is they assume the return to investment of the two types of capital is the same, and then they compute natural capital income. We do exactly the same. Now, let's go to the results. This is the first result. Here we have total labor income. This is the global income. What we do is we weigh it by GDP. Here we have total labor income, and as in almost all the papers, we have this decline in labor income from 1995 to 2015. However, once we split human capital and raw labor share, what we see is that the decrease in labor income is completely driven by raw labor. Indeed, human capital income share is going up. It doesn't have a clear trend, but what we have is an increase in human capital share. So, first extremely important message, the decrease in labor income share is driven by raw labor income. Now, we can split this graph. We can see the graph for high-income countries and low and middle-income countries. So, if we see for high-income countries, it looks pretty much the same as the previous one. Yes, we have a decrease in labor income share, basically driven by a decrease in raw labor share, and an increase in human capital share. Let's see what happens when we see low and middle-income countries. The story is completely different. What we see is, first, a steep decrease in labor income share, and then a recover. So, at the end of the period, labor income share is basically the same as it was at the beginning of the period. And part of the decrease is driven by raw labor share, and part is driven by human capital share. First big difference. So, what we see here is driven, sorry, here, is driven by high-income countries. Now, if we take a look at not shares, but the income, again, we start from 1995, and we see that for high-income countries, total labor income goes up. You have this small decrease, which is the financial crisis, but it goes up, and the human capital income goes up. Bad is different when we talk about raw labor income. Raw labor income goes up until 2001, and then it's basically flat, with a small increase at the end of the period. When we talk about low and middle-income countries, there's a decrease by the beginning of the century. But in general, you have a positive trend for labor income, human capital income, and it's a little, let's say, the increase is smaller for raw labor, but again, we have an increase in raw labor income. So, you may be asking, how come you see this huge decrease in labor income share, what is going on? So, basically, you will see what is happening when we take a look at the income share of natural resources. Basically, let me go on. So, here we have capital factor shares. So, total capital share, physical capital share, and natural resources share for all countries. So, you have a small decrease of 2001, and then an increase until the end of the period. However, if you take a look at natural resources share, it goes a small decrease and then a small increase, and then it ends up in the same level. This movement is basically commodity prices. Here you have the boom, commodity prices boom, and then you have the reversal of the boom. It affects a little bit the sample. When you take a look at only at high income countries, it looks pretty much the same when you go to low and middle income countries, then the store is different. You have the movements in natural resources share is huge here, and it's driven a whole reallocation of factors income along the period. So, you have first a decrease, then the boom, and then the end of the boom comes with a decrease in natural resources share. With total capital and physical capital, you see physical capital first goes up, then goes down, and ends up in the same level. Now, that's capital income. It's basically for the three types of, for total capital, physical capital, natural resources, basically the same. Again, you have this decrease in the middle of the crisis, and this is the story for low and middle income economies. You first have this decrease, and then a huge increase coinciding with the commodity prices boom. Okay. Now, that's the data set. Of course, we have 55 countries for data for all the countries all the years, so you can take a look at each one of the countries. But we can decompose the movements. Do I have the time? Okay. So, this is any factor share. You have here, R is the price of the share, F is the factor, and Y is GDP. So, that's the factors income share. So, we can decompose the increase in the factor share. You have the change in the factor price minus the change in the average factor productivity. When I say average factor productivity is as opposed to marginal factors productivity. Okay. In general, people talk about factor productivity, but we prefer to talk about average factor productivity to distinguish with marginal factor productivity. So, we do this for all the factors, and this is what we find. So, here we have for high income countries, that's the total labor share, and what we see is that average labor productivity goes above factor prices. Here, we can interpret this in two ways. One is like a political way or institutional way or bargaining way, which is, look, firms are getting a higher part of the production of each worker, and this, for this reason, we have this redistribution from workers to firms. The other way is, you know, you have robotization, we have biotechnology change, and firms need less workers, and for this reason, factor prices are going, wages are going below average labor productivity. Now, when we analyze the same numbers for low and middle income countries, what we see is, again, first a huge decrease, and then a recovery, but you know, in any case, what we see is that compared to 1995, in general, average labor productivity is above average wage. So, it's like during these years, we have either a change in bargaining power in favor of firms or some type of labor-saving innovations. Again, they can look at the whole story, you end up with basically the same labor income share. We can move to human capital. In human capital, it goes the other way around. You see that the share of human capital ends up being higher than at the beginning, and it means, basically, that the average productivity is growing less than the price of human capital. Basically, the return to investment in human capital. When we go to low and middle income countries, we have basically, the story is different. You have average human capital productivity above wages. Again, for low labor share, what you see for high income countries, a huge decrease in low labor shares. In other words, average low labor productivity is above low labor prices. For low and middle income countries, you have basically the same thing, but the difference ends up disappearing in the long run. When we talk about capital and the physical capital, you see that at the end of the period, the physical capital share is higher, so it seems that indeed capital is getting a bigger part of the share, of the pie. Again, it's explained because you have return to capital above capital productivity. Now, when you go to low and middle income countries, this is not the case. You begin with the same story, like the return is higher than the average productivity, but then this different disappears and there's no increase in the long run in capital income share. Okay. With natural resources, basically it's flat, the behavior of natural resources income share for rich economies, but when we talk about middle income, here you see the commodity cycle. First, average productivity is above capital return, but then you have this huge increase in prices. The return to investment in natural capital is higher now than a natural resources share, and you have these years with a big increase in natural returns share. Then the boom comes to an end and you end up with a slightly lower natural resources share. That's the story. Possible explanations. Of course, this is like an invitation to write new papers using this database, but here you have an interesting dynamic with two global shocks. You have the natural resource boom, which explains basically the movements in natural resource share that may explain, and you have the international financial crisis that puts some noise into the behavior of shares. You may have a story of factors saving innovations in rich economies, and it makes sense. Rich economies are more abundant in reproducible factors, so they have more incentives to invest in labor-saving innovations, and you see they are also more abundant in human capital, so they have more incentives to implement biased innovations. The long-run story is consistent with factors saving innovations. In low- and middle-income economies, you don't see this in the long run. Now, you may also have a story of international trade, because the HRL model will predict exactly the same regarding factor shares if you think that high-income economies are trading with low- and middle-income economies. You can also think about a story of evolution of market power basically with an increase in market power for capital-intensive economies, firms, etc. Here, I didn't show this, but there's a very interesting fact. It seems to be convergence in factor shares. When we have the whole sample and we draw convergence graphs, it seems that we have convergence. I think there's a beautiful paper as well there. This convergence could be, if you believe the story of factor-saving innovations and there's technological transfers, you may have a story there. You may also think about labor market institutions. I will not go deeper there. So, big conclusions. There are heterogeneities in two dimensions. First, the movements in reproducible and non-reproducible factor shares are completely different. The story of the decreasing labor income share is the story of the decreasing raw labor income share. Second, the story of the behavior is different in middle- and low-income economies and in high-income economies. Okay, this is repetition, but the most important message here is that we provide a new factor shares that Data said, which I think provides new understanding of tools for new ways of understanding the movements in factor shares. That's it. Thank you very much.
