So over the last couple of years there have been so many reports about how Nancy Pelosi and her husband have been Conspicuously making millions and millions of dollars by trading stocks now It's a little bit sus if you ask me and to put it lightly because this is a member of Congress and not just any member of Congress this is the speaker of the house and she's in theory supposed to be regulating these companies But yet she's making millions of dollars off of them and putting aside that conflict of interest She is somebody with inside information She's privy to details about the economy and industries that normal Americans don't have access to so not only is it a conflict of interest But it's unfair members of Congress have an unfair advantage compared to Americans with regard to the stock markets And when Nancy Pelosi was asked about this as you'll recall She scoffed at the idea of banning stock trading for members of Congress No, I don't know to the second one Any we have a responsibility to report in the stock on the stock But I don't I'm not familiar with that five-month review, but if the people aren't reporting they should be Because this is a free market and people We are free market economy that should be able to participate in that translation It shouldn't be banned because I am getting a really really fucking rich off of it. So deal with it now Unusual Wales just released the report that finds that Nancy Pelosi is the most successful Democrat when it comes to the stock market and these individuals made Numerous unusually timed trades Resulting in huge gains and would you look at that you have Austin Scott at the top of the list Brian Mast French Hill John Curtis Dan Crenshaw and then Nancy Pelosi right up there in the top 10 with Republicans Nothing to worry about. This is a free market. We should allow this to continue to happen. No big deal. It's just it's astonishing to me But unfortunately for Nancy Pelosi most Americans don't agree with her three out of four Americans think that members of Congress have an unfair advantage in trading stocks and this poll was Conducted by a conservative pollster But there's been a consistent flow of other polls that show Significant support for banning members of Congress and in some instances support for banning members of Congress and their families From trading stocks now Nancy Pelosi has corrupt as she is is not stupid She knows that this is unpopular, but she's probably done a cost-benefit analysis and determined that it's worth it I think she probably would prefer to be viewed as corrupts if she can keep breaking in lots and lots of money But to her chagrin a member of her own party is trying to reign in her corruption by introducing a bill That is the strongest yet with regard to banning members of Congress from trading stocks because this one closes loop holes that previous bills Contained so as the New York Post reports John Ossoff expected to snub Pelosi by pushing ban on Congress stock trades now Let's just pause right there. We're gonna dive into the article But I just want to point out that this is not a bill that's named these stop Nancy Pelosi from being corrupt act but he is Floating this legislation right after Nancy Pelosi Got rightful criticism for scoffing at the idea of banning members of Congress from trading stocks So his timing here is very conspicuous and this is very obviously something that is going to make Nancy Pelosi angry But nonetheless, he's doing it so credit where it's due I didn't think that John Ossoff had the backbone to actually stand up to members of his own party But I'm glad that he's doing this nonetheless So Georgia senator John Ossoff is looking to introduce a bill that would ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks a practice That House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has defended as her husband rakes in millions of dollars trading shares of tech companies The post is learned the Ossoff ethics bill which the Democratic freshman senator plans to introduce once he finds a Republican co-sponsor Would crack down on conflicts of interest by making it illegal for lawmakers and their families to trade stocks while in office a Washington DC source close to the situation set It would also likely require lawmakers to put their assets in blind trusts a step that the 34-year-old Ossoff Completed himself months after being elected in January of 2021 No Senate Republicans appear to have publicly come out against congressional stock trades So Ossoff may have trouble finding a co-sponsor in the Senate But Republican support in the House is more likely since several GOP House members including Texas representatives Michael Cloud and Chip Roy Have come out against the practice now You're probably thinking wait a second haven't there already been bills introduced that are similar to this Yes, and you've probably heard about the ban conflicted trading act This is the really popular one that a lot of members of Congress surprisingly have supported I'm talking about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reshaded to Lee by Anna Presley progressives like that But also corporate Democrats like Conor Lamb and even some Republicans including Matt Gaetz So this bill has support ranging from the left to the far right and that's really interesting but the problem with that particular piece of legislation is that it does not place a ban on the family members of Congress people so if you don't close that loophole, then you're not really Addressing the core issue here because Nancy Pelosi in the event she herself Wasn't able to trade stocks, which she does do very frequently. She's a very active trader Then she just relayed the inside information that she receives to her husband and she and he'd buy the stocks and They'd still continue to get rich So I feel like this legislation isn't really going to suffice unless you have that loophole in their clothes and thankfully John Ossoff is proposing Legislation that would close that loophole. My only criticism is that I don't know why Democrats always have to try to find a Way to work in Republicans, you know that Republicans in the Senate at least probably aren't going to support this I mean if you get a Republican cosponsor great because I think that that will make your bill more likely to gain momentum At least with regard to the media but if you can't find a Republican cosponsor don't sit on it just introduce it nonetheless and Get this bill out there because I want people in Congress to Put their names on the record. Do they support open corruption open conflicts of interest or do they want to rein that in? I think this is really important and I would like to see a vote on this I'm not very optimistic about that But the fact that John Ossoff is introducing this bill honestly kudos to him because he knows this is going to piss off Democratic Party leadership and Good they need to be challenged. They are the problem They're not the only problem with the Democratic Party But leadership is what is holding everyone else in the party back and they have to be challenged and they Are openly corrupt and that is why the Democratic Party has turned away from the working class So if you start by targeting members who are the most corrupt those at the top That's when you really begin to make a difference. So this is a good bill and I hope it gains momentum once it is introduced


Ciao, Montignano. I'm delighted to be with all of you, Italian and Bretz, to talk about how are we going to change a welfare state? And the answer is simple. Social innovation. It means that we need to rely on the innovation that is led by our citizens to turn costs and societal challenges into opportunities for growth and to give back to people agency. Thank you.


It's super hard right like one of the things I've been realizing the last couple years something I don't talk a lot about is I mention it, but I'm really starting to tap into it is Boy, do I leave a lot of money on the table like every year and like you know like a lot And I'm like and you just ask yourself why like you know why is important and like it makes so much sense It's just because I'm going for bigger and better and legacy and more money like it's all of it So today's the day Get excited about to go down and eat some breakfast And jump in the cab ahead to VaynerMedia Nothing cool. I'm Ricky Carruth. I'm from Orange Beach, Alabama I've been in real estate since 2002 What was your name ward? Yeah, I'm a lot like Ward in terms of I just started social media about a year ago I built my entire business on email and phone calls and I totally focused on real estate for 15 years did nothing else built a million dollar a year business number one remix agent in Alabama last year and Since then I've decided I wanted I feel like I Like accomplished that and and beat real estate, you know number one And so now kind of I guess I kind of got bored and now I wanted to Explore just totally different things and challenge myself And so over the past year like I like I started watching Gary about a year ago, right about the same time I started social media and thought about writing a book and doing speeches and stuff So over the past year has been a little crazy because you know, I hit number one during the same year I write two books. I started a vlog a podcast. I started Instagram daily YouTube videos You know the whole nine yards, so I've done maybe 10 or 15 speeches During that time, so I'm really I'm starting to get a lot of momentum I started coaching so a year ago. I started coaching realtors And so my whole goal is I want to reduce the failure rate in the real estate industry I think too many agents are judging their business on how many appointments they get And I think it should be more about how many people you're talking to and out of those people How many you're connecting with long-term and so I teach agents how to communicate who they are as a person with how they're Communicating with their clients as opposed to the cookie cutter Scripts that are out there that really just make you feel like you're just make your client feel like you're just going after a deal Or just you want the listing you're trying to close up and instead actually trying to help them And so that's kind of the path that I've taken but I started charging for my coaching and Over the past year I was charging and then about a month ago I decided to go totally free because what would happen is is I would have 300 people sign up for a webinar a hundred of them show up and one sign up and So I'm losing 99 people of people that really Put forth the time and effort to learn something and wanted to get something out of it But at the end they say I knew it. He was going to try to charge me And so now for the past month I went totally free the 200 paying members not a single one of them wanted any money back because of how much value I've given them Compared to how much they paid and so that that's kind of the path I'm on so my goal And what I'm here for is I want to build my personal brand in that real estate niche and I literally I Know that I'm going to be the number one real estate speaker in the world over the next two three four five years I'm on that path.  It's it's the mindset But so I started speaking coaching and now do a blog YouTube. What made you do that? like what what really well I had a passion for the fact that value relationships over transactions and Like like my mission is to reduce the failure rate. Yeah, I watch agents come in and out Yeah, and the problem is they The cookie cutter system doesn't really the way that they teach you communicate I know it teaches them to go after the deal. And so what I'm doing is I'm I'm teaching agents how to communicate who they are as a person like that They care about people with how they're you know who they are with how they communicate Which is often their truth and they're taught out of it It's super hard right like one of things I've been realizing last couple years something I don't talk a lot about is I mentioned it, but I'm really starting to tap into it is Boy, do I leave a lot of money on the table like every year and like, you know like a lot And I'm like and you just ask yourself why like, you know why is important and like it makes so much sense It's just because I'm going for bigger and better and legacy and more money like it's all of it and it's super counterintuitive It's just not and especially if you're in sales But it's but all the actions in the reverse. It's cool. Awesome.  By the way, it's completely evergreen Even for like, you know, like I don't know like spec work Like all we don't like it's just crazy even this like we have we have agencies that we want I don't know you're you're I want your business like I want a hotel client like like we don't have one like like, you know Like but you know to me I never get scared when I hear that not because they're small Because I was small like small is where everyone starts. It's just that doing the right thing always plays itself out They don't understand the abundance of reality My question is Cortez was in there earlier and I gave him my story, you know, a roofed house He's got no state made money lost everything went back to Rufi Morphine already came back number one of the remix agent Alabama so I told him the story I told him my message which was to line up who Agents are with how they're communicating and value relationships ever transactions in my whole spiel He said he's losing the connection between my story and my message and my question is how do I? Connect the two well first of all and this is and this is not a dig at Cortez is dig at me too The number one that all thing you all have to do is recognize these are very short engagements And you have to make sure if you agree with him You know like I'm worried to be at the vulnerability of Cortez's subjectiveness Just because Cortez is wearing a vainer jersey and sits here like he may be wrong or me. He may be right Do you think he's right? I think that's a more maybe think about it And so here's what I would say when I think about things and it could be somebody who I've never met before or something Dennis says Who I've known for a long time? I always make sure that I fully think it through before I act on it So a lot of you are gonna get a lot of different thoughts and angles here and Expansions on thoughts you've had intuitive or crossed a tee that you needed or not Or I am desperately scared that my word would be gospel I think what why I win a lot and people that follow my stuff win is I keep ship Basic as fuck Right, and then I'm very good at spending a lot of time and understanding the current state of attention and culture Like everything that the reason you failed was because you did the wrong things you did short-term behavior Now you're feeling this insanity because you're on ultimate long-term behavior As far as the story connecting that makes sense from a strategist standpoint I just want to make sure it's true because you can lose a lot between strategy and execution You can get the Cortez part really right and then the Babcock part really wrong So like there's a lot of variables here. So I don't want to dwell on anything too too much. I Think it's very easy to not lose your story. I think you just tell it over and over Like you guys probably know this bike to my content you look at the oh, you know I've started to finally not do this Right, but like I don't know only probably about a year ago year and a half ago Did I two years ago?  What are the important parts of the story? I think listen, I think there's no better story than what you have I'll be very honest with you. I wish I had a loss of Significance that I could point to It makes me more, you know, you can associate more like it's hard right people always like what's your you know You guys probably think they're like I thought about today.     I wouldn't get too hung up Click I would say you're getting hung up on the right thing.   It's cool.  And there's a hell a lot of people that had it worse or different or what have you I'm I'm not what I mean. It's funny one of my pieces of content when a world stars Instagram account and like Like just reading all the comments of all these 15 year old kids who have no idea who I am and like He makes all this like it's just funny.   Why am I making so many animated gift pieces of content on my instagram stories? Why did I make up a swipe up piece of content and why am I continuing to I promise you If my swipe up animated gift and my instagram stories wasn't working. I wouldn't keep using it I'm the easiest tell of all time Everything I'm doing is either egg. I'm trying to figure out if it's working or b. It's working Very simply if you haven't seen it a whole lot I'm trying to figure it out. If you see me keep doing it. It's fucking working In addition what open table understood brilliantly in 2002 and 3 is they could buy that lead on google for 50 cents Game over understand That's why I give that's basically in a nutshell The black and white reason why I do what I do I do what I do because I give away the most value for free because that's the leverage point of the things that I do This is the most dangerous.  I don't have hashtags But when I was doing it that was the right thing to do I'm being serious. I don't know what to say got it. That's why this game is so tough This is why I changed it to day trading attention It's day trading I don't know how they fuck, you know, I don't know day trading super well And I don't know how people bought stocks back in the day, but here's what I know. It's faster now Like I don't know my literally my opinion on snapchat could change tonight, but like access This is something to just think about Definitely for you Access is what people want I'm giving away content for free for access Music is free the show isn't Dinner with Kanye I would give away a lot of free music To be able to get to place in my life where I could have people pay $400,000 to have dinner with me And guess what in that picture? I just painted you both win The thing you don't know is the amount of volume of content needed to really win when you're done with the butts. You're ready thank you The last year question was actually my question in page 41 if you're asked carry people I love it So which was you know, if you don't want to go into something you My question was do you go into some full full bore and say do I have a plan B?  It's like ambitious practicality Right.  I get it I would say this How good I'm doing for my client for all of you is subjective And too many of us make that judgment for our client Some of my happiest clients. I hate what we do for them. Some of my most unhappy clients. We do the best for them From my point of view and I think I'm a good point of view but Never make the judgment for the other person Let the results speak if everybody starts firing you you were right My dad didn't even you know how I got trained real well.  That's for real real You having a good day just starting or fixing to be done. Yeah, just stop So you do the night shift. Yes, cool You see some interesting characters. Yes, that's good. You like it, huh? I'm a speaker a real estate speaker all third coach And I just it's just had a big meeting with at VaynerMedia Are we traveling back? What's that? We're traveling back tomorrow. Oh, we're trying Uh flights at nine Yeah, yeah, so I'll I'll have to get there about seven so I'll leave my room about six Yeah, six or seven


On February 20, Ukrainian Armed Forces launched a rocket attack on the training ground of the occupying Russian army located in Trudovskoye village of Donetsk region. This was reported by Russian Telegram channels. At least 65 Russian soldiers who were training at the training ground were killed and dozens were injured as a result of three strikes by Hamar's rocket launchers, the incident took place while waiting for the commander of the 29th Army of the Eastern Military District, Major General Oleg Moiseev, while lining up images from the area were shared by the Russian military. The occupiers say at least two units have been completely destroyed and blamed the commanders for placing the range in an unsuitable area easily detected by the Ukrainian army.


Continuing with lecture one in our series, we're now gonna talk about, well, the ideas of logic, in particular, what is a statement in the logical sense? The previous video was a lot more verbose than this one's gonna be, and that's mostly just because as we were introducing ourselves to the lecture series, there's a lot of things we had to say, like what is advanced mathematics? We had to define what that meant, while we were defining what definition meant, there's a lot of confusion going on there, I'll give you that. This one's gonna be a little bit more precise when we're looking for, because as I mentioned earlier, our lecture's always gonna be broke up into three parts, one about mathematical content, one about logical content, that's the one we're looking at right now, and then the third one about communication. All right, so this is our first, our very first video about logic, so where do we begin our discussion of logic? Well, logic is basically the study of valid reasoning. Logic professes to give us inferences for which are gonna be absolutely irrefutable because of the laws of logic. Logic lets us know when things are true or they're false, but when I say when things are true or false, what can be true or false? That's exactly what a statement is. A statement in the sense of logic is a declarative sentence. Sentence is a grammatical thing, I'm not gonna define what that is, but it's a declarative sentence. A statement is a sentence that is either true or false, and I should also mention that a statement cannot be true and false, it's one or the other, there's an exclusive or here. It's either true or it's either false. Now, as we develop what is so called Boolean logic, sometimes called Boolean algebra, the things are related to each other, one calls it Boolean Algebra because it's kind of like an algebra, but you work with statements as your quantities, like in a previous algebra class that you've probably taken, like called algebra, the variables you consider are typically going to be real numbers, or at least they're numbers, and you use things like x, y, z to represent a generic number. In Boolean algebra, which is a type of logic, our quantities are actually not numbers, our quantities are statements for which they could be true or false. And it's actually very common when one represents a statement to use variables like PQR. We typically reserve x, y, and z for a variable real number, a variable statement could be PQR. We'll use some of these in the future, don't worry about that so much right now. So Boolean logic, you're gonna combine multiple statements, which each statement could be true or false into an expression, and then decide, is that expression itself true or false? We often use capital T to abbreviate true, and we abbreviate false by capital F. And so if you think of these as variables for statements, what that means is the variable could take on one of two quantities. Like our variable P could equal T, or it could equal F, right? So unlike college algebra, where there's infinite possibilities, maybe for your real numbers, in Boolean algebra, you only have two possibilities. And this is something we're gonna do in the future, we'll be able to brute force problems that is we try every combination to see whether it works or not. Is the statement true or false, depending upon what these primitive statements take on. That's why we often use P. P is a primitive statement. It's the most simple kind. We'll talk about compound statements another time. But right now, I just wanna focus on what is a statement. A statement is a sentence that is either true or false. Now, to be true or false, we do not necessarily need to know whether it's true or false. To be a statement just means it's one or the other, not both, even if its truthfulness is unknown to us. Take for example here, the sentence, cancer is the leading killer of women. This is a statement because it is either true or false.  I don't claim that's the case, but this is a statement because it's either true or it's false. But I myself don't actually have the statistical data to know whether this is true or not. And maybe it depends, like, are we talking about women in the United States versus women in the United Kingdom or women in Japan? Maybe it changes based upon what set of women are we considering? But despite there are some ambiguities here, right? Cause which women are we referring to? Every woman that's ever existed. Are we talking about the women who live in Cedar City, Utah, where SU is located? We might have to clarify that, okay? But this is a statement, despite some of the shortcomings I mentioned here. I don't know if it's true or false, but it's a statement. Another example of a statement.  This is a statement. This is either true or it's false. It's one of those two things, right? Now, is it true or false? Well, a lot of fitness people will tell you it is. A lot of nutritionists will tell you it is. And for the most part, I think most of us believe it, but I don't have to prove whether it's true or false for it to be a statement. Another example, in the last 10 years, we have reduced by 25% the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere that produce global warming. I have no idea if that's true or not, but I do know it is a statement, all right? Let's focus on something more mathematical now. If a circle has a radius of r, then its area is pi r squared, all right? That's a statement. It's in fact a true statement. We often typically will abbreviate this as a equals pi r squared. Oftentimes, mathematical statements are abbreviated using formulas and mathematical notation of some kind. That is quite commonplace. This is a statement. It's true, in fact. Here's another statement. Every even number is divisible by two. This is another statement. In fact, it's a true statement. I know that every even number is divisible by two because that's the definition of what it means to be even, right? We saw this in the previous video. You're even if you can factor it as two times a number, okay? Another statement here. Some right triangles are esosceles. Yep, that's a true statement. Look at this one right here. All right triangles are esosceles. Now, this is where you have to be very careful. This last example is the one that students often make the most mistakes on. All right triangles are esosceles. I should mention that this is a statement. It is a statement, but the important thing to notice here, it is a false statement. It is not true that all right triangles are esosceles. You can come up with this right triangle, for example. Right, to be a right triangle means that one of your angles is 90 degrees. To be esosceles means that two sides are congruent to each other. And while this is not a perfectly drawn triangle, I hope my diagram is enough to illustrate that. This is a right triangle that is not esosceles. So this is a statement, but it is a false statement. Statements do not have to be true. And just because I know a statement is false does not remove the fact that it is a statement. Okay? Now, to talk about statements, we have to also talk about things that are not statements. The following are not statements. I'll give you reasons why. So the first sentence here, please open your textbooks. This is not a statement because it's not a sentence that is either true or false. This is actually a command. It's not declaring anything. It's telling you what to do. Open your books. That can't be a true or false thing. All right, the next one here. The number 42. This is not a statement because it's what we actually call a fragment sentence. It's not even a complete sentence, right? We have a noun, the number 42, but there's no verb going on here. It's a fragment. And as such, I can't tell you whether it's true or false because it didn't declare anything, okay? So that's not a statement. The next one, when did the dinosaurs become extinct? This is not a statement either. It's not a true or false statement. It's a question. I don't know. I mean, maybe scientists know, but it can't be true. It can't be false, all right? It's an example of a question. It's an inquisition. It's not a statement. Now, this last one is the most curious of all of the examples of non-statements. This is not a statement. And look at this sentence here. This statement is false. Now, it's tempting to think this is a statement because it refers to itself as a statement. And it does look like a sentence. It's a sentence, so it's not a fragment. It didn't ask anything. It doesn't tell you to do anything. So what's left when it comes to grammar? It feels like it should be a declarative sentence. It's declaring something. It's like, hey, this sentence is false. That sounds like a declaration. So why isn't it a statement? The problem is that a statement has to be either true or false. And this is an example of a paradox. A paradox is a sentence that does declare something, but it can't take on the assignment of true or false because of the following situation. That let's call this sentence P, okay? So P is the sentence. This statement is false. Now, if P is true, that means we have to then accept what this says as fact, in which case then it would say that the statement is false. So it's like, okay, if the statement is true, then we believe what it says, which tells it's false. So P is true and false. That's not possible. But on the other hand, if P is false, that means the thing it tells us is not true. And so it tells me that the statement is false. So if that's not true, then the opposite would have to be true because you do have that dichotomy there, which means the statement is actually true and we get the same problem again. Yikes. You know, we can't get both. We have these logical conflict right here. The logical arrows are crashing into each other like cars. The statement is the statement, if it were a statement, I should say, the sentence, if it were a statement would have to be both true and false, which that's not possible for a statement. So we don't get a statement, we actually get a paradox. One has to be very, very cautious about that in mathematics. Now, like I mentioned earlier, it's quite common to describe statements using mathematical notation. Now, the whole statement itself could be a mathematical notation like the equation. This is very common for the equations. Two plus three equals five, that is a true statement. But you also could just combine regular language with mathematical notation and you can make statements that way. So like the function f of x equals one over x is continuous. Well, it depends on how you define continuity, right? But it's a statement. Don't worry about whether it's true or false. If an integer n is a multiple of six, then n is an even number, right? That is a statement. It uses mathematical notation to describe it. That's okay. You use some variables in this case of what we're doing. Now, I should mention that this is an example, excuse me, the next example here, let's also take the integer n is even. This is an example we call an open statement. It's an open statement because it contains variables and depending upon how you choose those variables will change whether it's true or false, okay? And so in this situation, you have this unspecified integer n. n could be even, but n could be odd. I don't know without more information about n, okay? So in this open statement that it is a statement, but you do need further information before you can decide whether it's true or false. We use those in mathematics all the time. Now, by contrast, when you look at this sentence right here, if n is an integer, if an integer n is a multiple of six, then n is even. This is not an example of an open statement. This is actually an example of a true statement. This is a true statement because if n is a multiple of six, then it's even. How do I know that? Because I can actually prove it. There is a valid proof in this situation. Scooch up a little bit here. We'll put the proof right here. And so we might write something like the following, that if, you know, since n is a multiple of six, we take that assumption there. Since, since six divides n, that's what it means for n to be a multiple of six, there is, oops, there is a number. Let's call that number. Sorry, I ran off the screen there. We'll call it a, there's a number a such that, such that n equals six times a, right? So that, that's what it means to be. n is a multiple of six there. So we might even throw in something like by definition, by definition, okay? And so then we also make the observation. We'd say something like note, note that n equals six a is equal to two times three times a, because you can factor six as an integer. And then by properties of integer multiplication, we can write this as two times three a. So we get that and be like, oh, since three a is an integer, we have that six, that's not what we're trying to do. We're trying to show that two divides n like so. And that then proves the statement. So n is even. So we were able to prove this statement. There is a proof, which then provides it. So it doesn't matter what n is, if it satisfies the hypothesis of this conditional statement, then it'll satisfy the conclusion. And so as we end this video, I wanna point out here that there's an important dichotomy when it comes to statements, there's the so-called simple statements that contain just a single idea. And then there's a compound statement, which will contain several simple statements together, right? You connect simple statements together using connectives that form then a compound statement. So when you look at this one right here, and the integer n is even, that's a simple statement. There's only one idea present, the number n being even. But then we look at this one right here, this would be a compound statement because there's two ideas in play here. n is a multiple of six, and n is a multiple of two. And these connecting words, if and then, allow us to change two open statements actually into a true statement. And we can then provide a proof on why that is. And so don't worry about how I wrote the proof right now. This is something we'll practice in the future. We just started beginning with this. We'll learn more about connectives and compound statements in future videos about logic.


Hi everyone, Joe for Jaspy's casebreaks.com coming at you with the 2020 Panini Mosaic Football Celepac Break number five, or number 151 with 10 of those 2018 contenders football random team spots being given away. Big thanks to this group right here. We're gonna do the break first and then all the teams are there. And then in the second and last dice we're at the end of the video will be for the giveaway part. So let's roll out randomized names and teams four and a two, six times. One, two, three, four, and sixth and final time. Four and a two, six times for the teams. One, two, three, four, five, and sixth and final time. Now bangles down to Panthers. No trade windows in this, but here's the first half of the list right there. Second half of the list right over here. Let's just print and rip in a Celepac. Yeah, it's Scripps. It's Clyde Simmons for the Fly Eagles Fly. Looks like a lineman, offensive lineman. It's an autograph, old school offensive lineman. Or sorry, defensive end that is for the Eagles from 86 to 93, Cardinals 94, 95, Jaguars, bangles, bears. It's a coach now, a defensive line coach at Tennessee State. There you go, autograph and that's for Matthew and the Eagles. Tiki Barber, Green, Saquon Barkley and an NFL debut CD-Lam. The Pink Camo exclusives, Brian Burns, Derry Slayton, and AJ Dillon. All right, now let's flip back over here. Yeah, he played with Reggie White, and he's a basketball skid often saying in Jerome Brown. It's pretty cool. You don't see autographs too often in these Celepacs. Let's gather all these names again. New dice, new list. And it's gonna be the top 10 after three. Top 10 after three will be in the contenders break. One, two, and three. Now from 11 on down, it is sad times. Sorry, Mike, very close, no cigar. Thanks everybody for giving this shot. But top 10, you're happy because you're in that 2018 contenders football break. Adam, Cody, Robert, Michael, Ryan, Matthew, Mike, Mike, Matthew, and Mark. Like I said, I don't feel so bad for Mike. He's got a couple of spots. You got it, Mike, you got it. All right, thanks to the top 10 right here, or congrats to the top 10 right here. Thanks to everybody for taking the risk on this. I'm Joe, I'll see you next time for the next one. And remember, there's one more of these we gotta do and then we're in break skill. So check it out on jaspyscapesbreaks.com.


I think over the course of his head coaching career, he's dealt with losses in games much harder than he does now.  You have to exude confidence and belief in your players. And at the end of the day, you have to stick with what works and stick with the details and the schedules and everything that has gotten you to this point. There's no denying the success that he's had and the Rams have over the last six years. So you don't change what's gotten you here. You tweak things schematically, maybe scheduling, maybe go pads here and there. But he's going to be confident. He's going to get back to work. He's not going to waver. And he's a great leader and a great head coach for a reason.


Hello and welcome to the session. Let us discuss the following problem today. Show that the relation r in the set A of all books in a library of a college given by r is equal to x, y, z that x and y have same number of pages is an equivalence relation. Now let us write the solution. Given to us is A is equal to all books in a library. Now relation r is equal to x, y, z that x and y have same number of pages. Now let us check for reflexivity. Clearly, x, x belongs to r. Therefore, r is reflexive. Now let us check for symmetry. We have x, y belongs to r and y, x belongs to r. Since number of pages in x is equal to number of pages in y. Therefore, r is symmetric. Now let us check for transitivity. Let x, y belongs to r and y, z belongs to r. That is, number of pages in x is equal to number of pages in book y and number of pages in book y is equal to number of pages in book z which implies number of pages in book x is equal to number of pages in book z which implies x, z belongs to r. Therefore, r is transitive. Now since r is symmetric, reflexive and transitive. Therefore, r is an equivalence relation. I hope you understood this problem. Bye and have a nice day.


Okay, this is a first look at my new game. It's called Space Attack 2, Metatron's Cuber, Search for the Cube of Power. So quick history on this, about six years ago I created a game called Space Attack. This is somewhat of a sequel, somewhat of a remake of that game. I wanted to learn how to use the Godot game engine. I thought, what's better than to create a game I already know how to make. So I decided to remake the game. I rewrote all the code from scratch, but used most of the same assets. Gameplay is very similar, few new power-ups. This game, one of the big differences, actually has an ending to it. The old game, I never really finished it, it's progressively got harder. So once you beat the final boss, the game kept going, until there were so many enemies on the screen that your computer or phone just stopped working. Or not stopped working, but the game would run very jerkily. Anyway, fully open source, GPL3, it's up on GitLab. I've compiled it for Linux, both 32-bit and 64-bit. It's compiled for WebAssembly, so you can play it in the web browser. APKs for Android, Windows 64-bit, and also macOS, which I have not tested, but I compiled for it. So I don't know if that works, it should be working. Again, all the links are in the GitLab page. With this, you can download and try it. I do hope to get this up in the Google Play Store. The Google Play Store, I'd like to get it up on FDroid, and maybe even the Debian repositories. I've never done any of that, and so that would be a learning experience for me. So I'm looking forward to trying to do that. If I do, I'll definitely get you all links to that. Right now, I'm just testing it out. I have some friends testing it out, but I think it's pretty much done. And let's go ahead and just start playing. Again, very simple space game.  There's lots of power-ups that give you new weapons and other things such as that. There are strobes, so I should put a warning for people that might be prone to seizures. But yeah, so it progressively gets harder. So when you start playing, it might seem relatively easy, but it does get pretty chaotic as the game goes on. And every so often, you'll get to a boss. So the first boss comes in after you get to 150 kills. After you beat him, I think it's 400 or 600 I set for the next boss. And so forth and so on. There are four bosses. After each boss, a new enemy comes in. So right now, we're fighting these red enemies that come straight at you. They take one shot to kill. After we beat this boss, the next enemies come in. They come in from the side of the screen, take two shots to kill. Then after the third boss, you have enemies to take three shots to kill. And then you have enemies to take one shot to kill, but they come up from behind you. After all that, there is a final boss. And once you beat him, you get Metatron's Cube. So Metatron's Cube, what is that? You might be asking. I was just trying to come up. I called this Space Attack 2. I wasn't very creative with the name of the first game. You just call it Space Attack. I wanted something a little more unique.  And I thought what would sound cool and spacey. I'm like Tron Metatron was the name I came up with. I googled it to make sure there was no games called Metatron already. But when I googled Metatron, it came up with this whole thing about this thing supposedly called Metatron's Cube. I didn't really know affiliation with it, but I guess it's some sort of spiritual cube that gives people powers. I don't know. But I thought it sounded neat. So I kind of based the story of the game on that. But really, it has no association to it. This game was designed as something to kill time. So right now, if I was exited out of the game, it doesn't save any of your settings. If I exit out and go to the main menu and come back, and it continues where you left off relatively, it saves your level and kills and score. But if you were to close the program, all that goes away. It's something to be played in one sitting. I haven't actually timed it. But I would say it probably takes about 15 minutes to beat the game completely. And it's just designed to be played when you're at a waiting room or whatever, mainly on your phone just to kill time. But I also wanted it to be easy and non-frustrating. So you have unlimited lives. It does count your deaths. So I have, with the original game, have had friends over, and we played it and saw who could get the most kills in three deaths.   But I wanted it to be, I created this, again, six years ago when my wife was pregnant, and I, well, the original one. And I remember playing the original version of this game on my phone while I was waiting for him to be born. You know, it was that night in the hospital. And I already had my daughter, who was five at the time. And I wanted to make sure that this is something that kids could play without getting frustrated.   But the game keeps going. It isn't like you have to start all over again. It's not a frustrating game. It's just, you just keep going. And you can play to see if you could do better than you did last time. So yeah, again, it's compiled for pretty much all major platforms. It is available on my website. You can play it right in the web browser. Although right now, if you play it in the web browser on a mobile device, it works on my mobile device, but there's no full screen option. I hope to add full screen options in the future to the mobile maybe, but you can always download the APK. The only real thing is if you're on iOS device and iPhone or an iPad, I did not create binaries from that. Godot can do that, but I think you need to get security keys from Apple. And really to get this on iOS devices, I would think that I would have to put it, the best of my knowledge, in the Apple app store, which from what I've read, you can't put stuff that's GPL licensed in their store. And this is under a GPL3. So I haven't wasted my time making an iOS package, although feel free too. If you wanna download this source code off of GitLab and compile it for iOS and put it in their store, I'm okay with that. But again, I don't know if Apple's okay with that because it's under a GPL3. It's a GPL3, so you can even charge money for it if you do that. And I would love to see people on iOS be able to play this, but Apple just makes it not worth my time to try. But yeah, that's pretty much it. They should be able to play it in their web browser. Just may not be able to go full screen, but I would think it's still playable, but I haven't tested it. If you do play this and you have any issues with it, feel free to let me know. Again, the GitLab page, you can submit issues there. If you wanna take this and add features to it or change the art or create a whole new game out of it, that would be awesome. Let me know if you do. I'd love to see it and let other people know about it so I can share it with them. And yeah, I do thank you for watching. I hope that you enjoy this. And I would love to hear what you guys think. I'll also let you know when I do get it, again, in the Play Store or on FDROID or maybe in the Debian repositories would be awesome. Yeah, I'll let you guys know. And if you guys have any experience doing that, especially getting it in the Debian repositories, you know, I've read over the process and you need to get yourself, I forget what they call it, but if you never put anything in the repositories before, you need to find someone who's already a package maintainer, I guess, and get them to support you on that. So I need to do that through the mailing list. I haven't done that. If anyone has experience doing that or if you have the ability of getting stuff in the Debian repositories, let me know what I need to do. I've created the packages once or twice before. It's not something I've done a lot of. I don't know if I need to create the package or if I need to read through it. It sounds like I need to have it so that it could be compiled by being pulled from GitLab but things that are already compiled into one binary fill in already. So I just kind of have to create a dev package and put the any dependencies in there. But yeah, anyone has any experience doing that, I would appreciate the help. Again, I hope that you enjoy this. I hope you play it. If you play it, definitely let me know what you think. And I hope that you have a great day.

They're not just hard Be just because they hard because they've been through a lot of economical Design disasters, you know designed and by by a government or by a state You know to kind of create crime so that they can get Funding and different things of that nature. What do you understand to believe it? You know when you see politicians and Government officials building private prisons. Who do you think they build them for? Real conversation has there ever been a time that you have noticed or witnessed where Because I've heard about this in the past, but I don't know if they're still doing it now Where there was a certain kid that was growing up and showed promise Doesn't have to have a structured background and so forth but had so much promise whether it be Going to NFL or Studies are so great a straight-A student were they wanted to join the gang But oh geez was like no you need to go ahead and stick to this this and this and you're not gonna do this Yeah, I actually got a buddy that Was detoured, you know, we we grew up in this in in in the neighborhood of treetop power ruin He went to the Super Bowl, you know, he Started in the Nickerson's he moved from the Nickerson's him and his family His name is Solomon Miller. I think he went with the Giants Two Super Bowl rings.  Yeah, you know, I don't know which way an interviewer is Going because I don't have prepared questions. That's how we are That's how it was so cold, man When we used to play street ball. It's it's in the street, you know, and and we we we play football in the street And I used to I used to just be so amazed. I'm so captivated by Good athletes how tally, you know, I'm not a sports person But I like good to see good athletes do their thing if it whether it be basketball I've seen some great basketball players that could have been in the pros when I was in the penitentiary But Solomon, there wasn't a ball that can get by him, you know, he had man When you pass the side the the curve that's out of bounds and Solomon on one hand that sucker And I'm talking about at 13 14 years old, you know, so yeah And he wanted to join the gangs and they told him no I won't say he wanted to join the gangs.

Yeah, they do do that. They do do that I didn't have to get jumped in because we're the people that started it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well So you started the tradition of jumping in then We didn't start the tradition of jumping in that came along through other hands and other minds But if we started we started as friends Okay, we pretty much know what your hands is like already.  I believe that's for strangers I would hope that's for strangers because if you know somebody got hands And you talking about jumping to me and I know some people that you could put five of them on them And all five of them will touch the ground at one point throughout this event, you know So that's not a good idea all the time and I've heard of some situations I was just talking to my partner taboo and he was telling me some about a similar situation I don't want to go into detail because I don't want to uh embarrass no people But he told me a situation similar to that and they didn't know this guy had hands and that and that guy He left some people he had he said man.

Okay, you have different territories, you know, when you talk about bloods bloods are in l.a Okay, predominantly When you talk about pyroos, that's generally Compton, yeah, possibly watts possibly watts possibly watts Where's nicosin at? Where's the nicosin's world of its own and it's in it's in los angeles, but it ain't nothing to laugh about the nicosins, you know I I come in and out of the nicosins a lot because that's where oj And solomon that went to the super bowl. Okay and cricket. That's where they came from the nicosin gardens Yeah, yeah, and so as kids we always went back over there because just like anything else We are all home like pigeons. Yeah. Yeah when we grow up somewhere We we we we end up going back no matter how far you take me away from compton.  You know, it's been a bad city, you know years ago centennial high school I went to centennial. What what do you think when I say centennial? What was what what comes to mind?  Yeah, physical fight. Yeah physical fight. Oh, what you're in the principal doing fighting You don't you supposed to be now he supposed to be on the disciplinary actions Like you was going to alternative school or something. I'm glad you mentioned that I did end up getting kicked out. But yeah the principal I think his name was mr. McCrumbie come closer to the mic. I think his name was mr.   So I just called pops And my pops came up there and my pops had a conversation with him And my pops used to be in these streets But what caused the fight in the first place it was it I used to sell weed at the school Okay, so you were in the wrong.  I don't have no weed On me or in my locker nothing. This is a bad day for you, but it's a good day for me You know and so, uh They they took me to the locker and they really felt like he's got it in the locker And when they got to the locker it was like two joints in there, right?    That's the only dad I know and I want to say that In the beginning we had a lot of battles But in the end we became the best of friends. So yeah, but he taught me how to fight He was six two six three him and all his brothers was six two six three six four They come up out of the swamps in the city of Compton the Tatum family, you know But um and people know him because they was in these streets before I was in these streets Let me ask you a question.  Will people lives get saved going through the check-in process or will it be something to put them in jeopardy? you know I don't really know about the check-in procedure I've heard about it And I believe that yeah, it might be a good thing dependent upon the integrity of the person or the entity that you're checking in with Okay, you know, uh, if you tend to checking in with random people that you know don't know Then that's different.  You playing you you gambling with your life But if you're checking in with a reliable source Uh, that's well known and has a history of providing protection Which are guidance, you know You know, I don't mean to bring up things but I think pmb would still be here possibly had he checked in And some people get it Twisted and I think that's based on their own insecurities or their own ego But if you come into a strange A strange city and it's and believe me you it's popping out here in in south central Los Angeles In the city of Compton the city of watts in the same city of linwood It's popping out.  You know, it's not publicized all over the news They do as much as they want to but it's a lot that goes on especially since the pandemic It's become like a piracy.  You know, I drove biz marquis Uh, I used to do limousine driving really. Yeah How was that? How was biz marquis? It was amazing, man. Um, this spirited guy seemed good spirited, man He even gave me some tips on how to how to, um How to use, you know, if you're not rich And even I would say he's comfortable, but Some of the prices on the products in the rooms in the hotels of the nice hotels are just extortion You know, and so, uh, he told me man, I do this everywhere I go I eat what I want in the room and I go to 7 11 replace it and put it back before I check out and I said wow But when I said our army, that's smart. Yeah, I don't even think he said everything that that's in that room Generally comes from the from the from the people. Thank you, right? Yeah Do you think that you hear what he just said? Possibly. Well, I've seen him do it. So But I picked him up every day and what I noticed And v can contest it is because I picked him and v up every day in a, uh, a tie-hole Okay, uh private You know black Blacked out windows tie-hole And I remember there was some, uh, Haitians Always a car full of Haitians I don't know if they stayed at the same hotel. I remember when I arrived there Um, either they was Haitians or Jamaicans, whatever They looked to be very dangerous. So they probably Jamaicans They brought they brought their army with them and everywhere we went they was there But they never made contact with bs. They never made contact with with with v You know, they was just there, you know, and the event that something would happen I'm pretty sure that they would have been real active So but if you're not coming like that to answer your question, I think you should check in with a reputable source Or if you have Family or friends out here that maybe can navigate you through the drama You know check in with them, you know But if you don't have no family or friends and you going into the hot seat you're going and and hollywood can become the hot seat, you know Yeah, let me ask you this man because I'm a big dj quick fan. Yeah Um, real I've been trying to reach out to him too. I'm trying to figure out how to get that ball on boss talk 101 Every time I come to la I'm like, I mean, I ain't hit him up in about a year I think it became when when me and sir charl jones a blues southern soul singer that I rock with We was talking about him. He just talked about that. I was wondering is that the same person? Yeah, that's my guy. Yeah Yeah, yeah, my my my my my ex-girl love that all her friends. Yeah. Yeah, he got something going Y'all got to stop listening to sir But yeah, sir charl jones me we talked about a dj quick man. Just how do you what do you? Y'all he went did he go to centennial too? I don't know, but I know he know he from he grew up in the neighborhood. I mean, I know quickie I grew up he grew up right there in the community Very talented multi multi talents How did you how did y'all link and how did you even know him? Well, he grew up in the same same neighborhood.  I think that's the I can't remember. It's the 400 block of spruce and You know, I remember he had he's got a little cousin a tiny shot tiny shot I think that's her name and I used to ride around in the hand of bars when we was kids She was she's a cool kid and and and and he was he's a cool guy, you know and his sister He had two sisters. I was real cool one of his sisters.  Wow. Do you remember that? I don't remember that That was the first group that easy signed First group the first group that easy side was the penthouse players easy He he so he said because I I thought he was a Crip or something Yeah, but this is business being this is being a hero. He wasn't even when you focus on his money the money man It's the money. It's about the money, you know for a lot of people for me I got to be comfortable. That's about integrity for me. That's good. That's good stuff. I don't think If it's something I want I can just take it So DJ quick was the other person that was approachable and talk you could talk to it Quick was approachable as a kid But then you know when you get older and you get professional You have to make yourself less approachable because you don't know who approaching you They got all kind of con artists and slick slicksters out there.  I have learned that. You don't know who they are. Don't talk Just hang up Text me Center, that's what I'm seeing. Do I do that? I had to start doing that because too many people calling me. Yeah, and then you don't know You know if they on the other end they're recording me. Yeah, and then they can Use this even though you're not even thinking about anything negative They might ask you something they might not even appear to be negative But in the end when they can store it They can turn it into something negative. So you have to be careful with that. Wow You being out here this this I always keep thinking about it. It's just this is the mecca when it comes down to gang violence Yeah, this is where it all started. I've seen where You were surrounded by a hundred Crips. Yeah Break that down to me. How do how do primates get surrounded and how you get in that neighborhood?  We really didn't explore a lot and jb was more of the explore I think jb went to school in Carson, California. I grew up and was raised and went to school in Compton and He had heard about a party. I don't know who he heard about it from And it was at a park in uh Carson del limo park and when we got there, you know Crips and Bloods can and have Had you know gotten along inside a party Sometimes there's some there's some outbreak, but it can be personal It could be two people just doing a given you know having a it's a one-on-one fade You don't always have to be a whole gang fight. You know, it's not always that so I don't know if he knew It's too late to even care if he knew because we in the middle of it and uh We arrived at the party we seen the party and from the top you can't really tell what's what and as we go down We realize wait a minute. This is all crips. We We're on the wrong sides We we we assume and then you don't want to just turn around and walk right back out because it's it's it's an open area Let me explain that better. It's an open area and and uh It's a park You know and then over on the other side you can hear music going on So I'm saying well, maybe that's where The homies are, you know, so we travel on over there and it's not it's the same thing Wow But here we are we got identifying uh bandanas and rags that that that show We definitely pyros and we're out of our jurisdiction by a long time, but are we a class crew? It's three of us. Yeah Did we panic? No, did we run? No, how y'all had this story look scared?   Yeah, that that wasn't a check-in That was a reputable person that was able based on his abilities and his history and His his get down to tell over it was over a hundred. It was over a hundred crypts But to tell them all look, this is my people. That's it. Wow. Let that rock. Let them go. They go man I look at up here and and I just go about what I can see from outside looking in But you you doing interviews now, right? But they got this thing called clubhouse and you got like whack 100 different people that that's what they do It's a I've never been on it not one day in my life But it's something that people entertain like where you go in and you talk in different rooms or whatever Is that something that you would ever do? I don't really like phones. I just told you. Yeah, I'm not big on phones But that's exactly what it is. They go in different. I didn't know that. Yeah I got actually got a message the other day. You got to be invited. Yeah It was an invite to to but I didn't know Yeah, I thought it was for an interview. No, I was half asleep. It was like one o'clock in the morning. Yeah, that's what time they do it That's what yeah, it'd be like that. They want you to get on there and talk never You would never do that. Not really. I never say never. You never know Yeah, it's a big it's an opportunity where people they will start Ask you the other interviews and it does open doors because you might be on there with anybody You don't know.  It'd be about seven people talking. Yeah. Yeah I'm not with that one But it will put eyes on your brand. Do you know what I mean? But I'm all right. Like I said, I'm not greedy Yeah, it's a new day in time and I just ask because there are so many different avenues that you can expand I've never done certain things and I don't think I'll play privy to it I like to just talk and really give, you know, people something to look at to where Somebody might be watching this one night and say, you know what man, he made it out Yeah, somebody might be watching this. That's what I'm saying to say he made it out. Yeah, definitely And that's what that's why I do it. You know what I mean? For you to still be here And that's the thing for me. That's what it's about. You know, I talk about The things I've done to qualify I talk about the life I live for people to understand I've been where you at right now. You at the beginning I'm at the end I've been through the dark tunnel. I know the twists and the turns the The the hurdles and and and the unseen drops the falls that you're gonna make before you make them And you don't have to you don't have to experience these things You don't have to hurt and experience the hurt that I felt or you don't have to to to to live that type I mean, if that's what you want to do if you just a savage Like they say the demon or you if that's what you are then do your demon thing But there's there's there's consequences for everything And I know some some people that thought they was demons till they got in that courtroom And they started talking about them football numbers or they started talking tossing them ails around with no possibility Of parole and and all the demon left and now it was back to jesus and god lord Jesus please start begging to him, you know, you reaching out to him. That's it man. So, okay, i'm a uh Look at it from a different perspective when I when I ask these questions I've asked them before to certain people that was in This neighborhood when you hear about people in other states other people Who have taken this culture because you guys have blossomed out so much in the other cities I come up around shreveport It's we had people back in the days was flying in to get away from out here running from situations to get to shreveport So they didn't have to deal with la that were from la but when they came they left children They left people there. They started something. We got cooper wrote down and you got all these different neighborhoods You got uh in houston. I think there was the the pyro's ahead of it down there Um different different places where you you guys have captivated these people Do you guys respect them in these on these levels? I respect them. You see what i'm saying because I always ask them because You know, we started this years ago 76 77 had no clue had no intention for it to grow Or had no expectations of it growing like it grew And you know, it is what it is it didn't grow But I respect them because they are part of what we started All I say is carry it and do it right be your own man.  You know what i'm saying I know some people That use it as a tool.  Where are you at? Who to say you don't? Well, I don't know what your conditions are what your situations are You know the way the world is going you might need a army within a city to protect your family from the police I don't know what's going on out there, but I do know that Lives aren't free At least mine ain't it ain't for free.  I don't know what law you're enforcing and and This is how I live So when when we were talking earlier and I told you I hadn't had physical altercations with the police multiple times by myself See, I'm standing by myself when I'm incarcerated How did I arrive when I came here today by yourself? That's how I ride I don't give no police no reason to put their hands on me or to even I don't know what what a person's reasoning is, but I know that day if the police put your hands on you He could take your life. You could take so when you reach out to put your hands on me We're in a we're in a battle and I've been there multiple times. I got 48 stitches in the back of my head 16 in the front. I had this arm broke this leg broke by the police I didn't have multiple I'd have been tortured inside Marilomas county facility and whole Because of physical altercations with the police and these things I say they're researchable You know and all of those altercations was caused by them starting it or by them starting it by their misjudgment By their misuse of power by their being immature individuals you know and and just You know looking at me is and and and and appraising me just to be an average Criminal no, I'm not an average criminal. I'm not an average bad guy.    That's okay No, you're passionate about it. That's right. Well, you think about uh the side of town that you come from dr Dr. Dre is another one dr. Dre. I remember when uh The eve no, it wasn't the eve after dark Was it the eve after dark overall else he got to a central is that's where he started okay starting spots uh, they used to do A hell of a show up there every every every saturday, I believe The booty shaking contest I'm talking about back in the early 80s, man, you know They give a hundred dollars away back in the 80s somebody giving a hundred dollars away For a booty shaking contest you could have a room full of beautiful sisters in there shaking their booty in the ring You know on on on the dance floor and they didn't squared it off and poured it off And uh, man, he used to the doctor he used to wear, uh, like a white, uh Doctors out. Yeah, man. He was a dj. Yeah. Wow. That's uh, I think dj burn one got there from dr I just interviewed him in at level. Yeah, so it was amazing. Yeah, it's funny how these people the way they start It influenced people everywhere and we would ever knew that starting right there and I can't say that's where his actual start Started from but for me, that's where I first encounter The music that he dj's and the the magic that he does was on el sigando and central upstairs They know where it's at. Wow.  Definitely. We did music together. What uh, what was it like working with yg? He's a he's a hard worker. He's uh, he's a worker hauling actually he's he's He was pretty skilled for it putting my poetry with his music.     Oh, who do you love? That's the end of who do you have going if you watch the video The video you gotta watch the video. You gotta watch the video or buy that When did you know you had a talent in poetry like that? I knew that early on in my community in my neighborhood. You would do it on the streets Well, there was a gentleman that big old light-skinned a gentleman, uh He used to hang out by terry tarzan's house.  He stayed across the street from from the junior high school his his uh His house was there and uh terry was a motherfucker His name is terry tarzan. That's just about geed an idea The the the streets was like a jungle to him. You know, he swung through the streets Uh and handling his business. He had the best low riders. He was the most creative crime criminal And and and I say that because back in them days if you wasn't You know, the money that they was offering wasn't Was it worth the time that it took to get it? Yeah, you know, when you see Of the privileged people moving so swiftly in life Do you really want to be On a nine to five for five dollars and 25 cents an hour every day 12 hours a day No, do the math on that So, you know, they were creative. They came up with other ways of making money other ways of enjoying life You know the low rider scene that's when it was created, you know And and he had him he had some of the most amazing low riders You know that you ever want to see, you know, he was one of the most amazing people that you ever want to see He was resource but he was nobody to be played with. No, he wasn't the one to be played with but you know, everybody You know Everybody talk about they want to meet Jesus until it's time to meet That's real. You know, everybody talk about they want to know god until it's time to have a talk with him Wow, so um, do you think that Where things are now, uh Black home businesses, um Things in the bumpton area where do you think that have we moved the needle at all? We've made some progress. We made some progress. Uh But There's there's still a lot of work to be done. There's still a lot of work to be done There's still some blockage up.  I'm always giving you this you can depend on me every month Some people just don't want nothing more Wow, man, you know But it's conditioning conditioning and then for the the ones that do You know, they they see they see they see the manipulation and the ones that do they like I want more out of life than that I want more than nine hundred dollars a month You know, I want more than what you're offering at that job And I know that you got what you got By breaking the law in the 1800s You know, I know that you got where you at you you living off a generation generational wealth But your generational wealth was obtained criminally Let me ask you this you bet you was around when when when you had the I interview doc A while back about two weeks ago now we can have loved his raspy voice But he he basically Talks about he he started off owning Defro And yeah, and and then it threw me off because I didn't know but I read on it And he owned 30% of it when it first was lunch. He was one of the original owners of defro Should night when you look at how he blazed through you hear people now Speak on his name But when he was around I didn't hear people speak on his name. Yeah Listen now I'm going somewhere. I'm just so virtual. So You was around during these times when it was real strong. Yeah And you to hear the way people are because of now the time we in versus back then and the voices that's being displayed What do you think about that? I mean It's apparent. It's obvious They know he's captured You know, um They probably Look at the fact that He's gonna be gone for a long time So let me get my legs in You know some things they probably wouldn't have said when he was out here, but he was created for a reason See when he was when he became who he became and started doing the things he did It was generally because people in the industry that had been here for years screwing people Now they're being challenged by a force That's uh equal A daring more daring than you expected you know, so He negotiated certain people's contracts I don't really remember. I think Mary J. Bly was one. Well, I'm not certain but I remember a few tales about a few people Where he negotiated their contracts and sometimes you never know what goes on Behind closed doors.  I was in prison What'd you think when you heard about it? I mean you heard the in and you heard it in the music it was west coast east coast east coast west coast um You can't never say Who did what You know, if you wasn't there You know, I did a lot of research on it. I've looked at a lot of youtube stuff But they still having arrested anybody for that's right. So, you know When you don't arrest anybody for stuff that everybody knows about Who do you think's behind it? Wow Who do you think's behind it? When there's been a crime committed The government I wouldn't say the government the the the government of the city the government of the city What you went to prison? How long was you in prison? Seven and a half. I did seven and a half years seven and a half. Yeah What would you what you seem like a good guy? I am a good guy You seem like a good guy, you know, I said and drink coffee with you and hang out with you. You know what I'm saying? What happened you was just young I would gel for robbery kidnapping Oh, we got serious when I was young. How old was you when you first went into my 20s? Come on up. We got here in my 20s. This is really good. Why would you want to kidnap somebody? I didn't mean to I didn't intend to how do you not intend to kidnap?  That's what it is.  I don't really mess with businesses. I was chasing the drug man You know the dope boys and they ran you into the business. It. No, they were in That's what I was saying. The business was either a front or A co-partner whatever it was, you know, but um, I'll tell you It was in one of the most prestigious cities in In the county of los angeles, which is city of torrents. Okay, and uh I remember I left and you were doing this by yourself. No, I had a crime. He never got touched I left my fingerprints inside the safe As well so and inside the facility so That's how they do that. I I didn't wear gloves.  I probably did five more crimes How much did you get? Well, it wasn't like I said it was Wasn't about the money. Yeah, it was about the pounds back in the day. So you weren't even worried about no You were about about the about the work about the work that was there. Okay, and uh Well, we're here. We might as well take the money too, you know So when you get ready when you get caught and you end up catching the seven years, which where do you go to San Quentin? No, I went to uh I went to wasco and it's interesting that she said that was another fight with another deputy. Wow I went to the county I ended up in torrents court. They started off at 35 years. Wow. Yeah I had a robbery prior to that that they that they they They they called it a joint suspension. That's where it's like you went to prison, but you didn't It's equivalent to going to prison on paperwork. So if you get into another incident or you you you you you commit another crime We can hold you we can we can use this This this this against you which is going to give you more time which bumped it all the way up to 35 years You know and so I fought for uh a year and some change to get it from 35 all the way down to 10 years And then I fought it for a year and some change. So they gave me a year and change credit Wow Yeah, so the and back then it was halftime. So that went so back because I always made a promise to myself If they ever give me more than five years. I'm escaping to sugar shaft I'm escaping to sugar shaft So when you when you with what what you're doing, let me share with you I'll go ahead. So they have transporting deputies, right? So And I'm minding my own business. I'm on this They call it the gray goose. I'm on my way to wasco state penitentiary.

He said, okay He put his hand between on on these two Chairs on he said everybody Get up and exit the bus except for these four right here And he undid the chain Uh, so that the rest of the people can go And then he grabbed I'm on the I'm the last man on the chain He grabbed each one pulled him snatched him to him after the bus was cleared and everybody was off And over to the side and he said was that you talking about my what you got to say about my partner now, man You know talking real rough.

I believe I believe the police were more racist back then I would agree. You know time just kind of and the system itself was more racist I believe because it's people that have done a whole lot more than what he done Back then now and they've gotten a life.  Well, um When you think about the people that move out here and it seems as if almost it's a Claws of blanket on one where the the celebrities they get with different groups or whatever Is that a real thing where you know the gangs and all of them they they kind of look out for these different celebrities What do you mean in terms of checking in?
