Dominoes, they sell more than 3 million pizzas every single day. Not only that, they have more than 350 franchise and corporate team members around the world that works for them. So how are they able to achieve such a big accomplishment? Well, first of all, they have a very bold approach to business, and second, they're backed up by psychology. And in this video, I'm going to be breaking down the five psychological hacks that Domino uses to market to millions of people around the world to get them to buy again and again and again and again. So then that way, you can utilize these hacks in your business. So make sure you guys keep watching. Hello friends, my name is Wilson, your friend in helping you build a thriving small business and a profitable food business. If this is the type of video you enjoy, breaking down psychology of top tiered restaurants so you can benefit from it, make sure you guys go into comment section below and type yes. So in that way, we know to create more of these content for you. Top food brands, they have the time, the resources, and the money to do these tricks, to do these research, to get people to buy from them again and again, whereas small business like ourselves is very, very hard to compete with less resource, less time, less talent, and less money. And that's the reason why I partnered up with my friend Michael to create food marketing labs, which is a database of more than 140 marketing and psychological hacks and these tactics that these big brands uses to get people to buy from them, to spend more with them, and to fall in love with them. Now you get the inside scoop, get the access into what these big brands have like McDonald's, Starbucks, Chipotle, and for you to utilize it into your own small business as well. So if you want to level up your marketing, level up your food business and actually impose these psychological tactics, then definitely check out food marketing labs in the description below. Now in this video, I'm going to be diving deep into how Domino's uses these five psychological hacks to get people to easily buy from them. So make sure you guys keep watching. The first tactic is cognitive overload, but in a good way, also known as decision fatigue. And if you've been watching any of my other videos, I often recommend only having seven to nine food items, not to confuse and overload your customer so then that way they can actually make a decision. However, when your customers are home, things changes very drastically. Because of the abundance of time, it allows the customers to scroll through the leaflet very freely to explore, to figure out what they want to do, to figure out what kind of options you may have. This is when decision fatigue kicks in. What do I mean by that? Because there are so many different options on the screen, I mentally get tired, I mentally get weakened because of the overload of information. And because I don't have the time pressure to make a decision right away, I would oftentimes take a little bit longer and have this mental tiredness. Now our willpower to make the right decision completely tanks. And that's where Domino's really does their job because now their customers are going to fall prey to their weekly deals, to their extra cheese bread, to their extra toppings, because it is just that much simpler of an option to make. Domino's does this in two ways. First of all, they send you leaflets of promotions that they're running on a weekly basis or a monthly basis, and it has tons of different promotions on that leaflet. Domino's website does have a ton of different options for you to choose from as well. Also giving you this decision fatigue as well. Now the only caveat to the decision fatigue is that things must be organized in this chaotic environment. What do I mean by that? If you have tons of options on a website and is very, very confusing to read, confusing to understand and comprehend, then yeah, people are not going to be able to buy from you. Whereas when things are categorized in specific buckets that you can actually choose from, then that's how they're able to utilize this psychological hack decision fatigue. Not only Domino's do this, but other big brands often utilize this technique as well. McDonald's, Chipotle, and even Starbucks uses this tactic. So what does this mean for you? Well, for you, it means that for customers that are not dining in at your restaurant, what do you do? You offer them more options, whether it's a leaflet, whether it's on your website, whether it's a mobile app, organize your content and organize your menu in a way that is clear, but also give them a lot of different options, allowing them to have this decision fatigue. So when they order from you, they're going to order more. They're going to order all the specials that you're going to have, allowing you to have more revenue. What's more convenient, guys, ordering through a phone app within minutes or talking to someone on the phone and placing an order. That's where OCamRezor kicks in. Simplest solution often is the best solution. And the convenience of being able to order online is that it's accurate and you don't have to talk to someone. Oftentimes you just don't want to talk to people. You just want to have your food. Whereas when you order through the phone, what's going to happen is it's going to be prone to a lot more errors. People can't hear you. You're going to be on hold. You have background noise. You're talking to your spouse. All these good stuff. And that's reason why, if you have a simple solution for people to order from you, that is often a really added big bonus for your customers. And did you guys know that there are more than 24 million ways that you can customize your pizza? Well, Domino's makes this whole process a lot simpler with their app. And that's reason why they invested into even more interactive things, like build your pizza.  And best of all, according to a study conducted by TriKegs, they set that online orders account for 30% more in revenue over phone orders and over the counter. What does that mean? That means you get more average order value. So what's the opportunity for you and your food business? Well, you know what? Keep things simple. Keep things simple so then that way people can be more efficient when they're ordering from you. Because when things are complicated, when things are difficult and hard to do, then people get frustrated. What did they do? They leave and go to your competitor. So keep things simple and efficient. And the third psychological hack is the cashless effect. What is that? Well, have you ever been on a midnight shopping street? Where you go on Amazon? Where you go on Best Buy? You're not buying a few things and at the end of the month, the bill comes and you are shocked by how much you spent. Well, there's actually a psychological reason for that. People end up spending more online versus in person. This is the cashless effect. This describes our human tendency to actually spend more when there is no physical transaction in place. Pressing the buy button is so much easier psychologically than taking out your hard wallet and taking out your hard-earned cash and giving it to the cashier. Using cards or even phones reduces the tangibility of the price. You don't value it as much because there's no hard asset for you. And when you're able to combine the cashless effect and the Occam's razor, making things super easy, then you now understand why Domino's is one of the leading forces in the world out there. And to add to that, Domino's, they generate more than 70% of their sales online in 2020. And on top of that, 13 ways that you can actually buy from them online. That's how much they focus on the cashless effect. So what's the opportunity for you? Focus on online sales. Push your customers to order from your website. Have apps that people can order from.  And speaking of which, guys, if you enjoyed this video, make sure you guys smash the like button so then that way we know this is a type of video you enjoy so then that way we can share it more people. We can do more deep dive of other restaurants to share these ideas with you so you can make more money in your restaurant. So go ahead and smash that like button. Fourth psychological hack is gamification. What is gamification? It is the use of game elements in non-game activities. Employing gamification can enhance customer and employee engagement, boost sales and even cut cost. Gamification is super powerful when done right. So how does Domino's do it? Well, Domino's they incorporate it with their pizza tracker. You know what's not that fun? Waiting for your pizza to come and not knowing where it is. You're hungry. You waited for 20 minutes. Where's my pizza? That is not fun. What did Domino's do about this? Well, you know what? Domino's, they did something to fulfill our human psychology. What is that something that we crave? We crave for certainty. People, some consciously crave for certainty. They want to know what's happening. They want to know for certain that this thing is going to happen. If you don't believe it, ask my wife. She always needs to know what is going on. What is going on? What's happening? Where are you going? This and that because we crave for certainty. So what did Domino's do to fulfill this? They made this process fun by incorporating the pizza tracker and a GPS tracker for their delivery drivers. And not only Domino's do this, other food brands utilizes gamification for people to spend more and to have more loyal fans as well. For example, Starbucks. They incorporate the golden stars as rewards and people loved it. McDonald's, their famous monopoly game that gets people going crazy, bidding for land and stickers. And Uber Eats. Uber Eats utilizes the GPS tracker to give their customer a sense of certainty. So what's the opportunity for you? Well, for a lot of us, we don't have the capability and the high tech resources for tracking where our orders go. And it's okay. We can make it fun by incorporating loyalty cards, by incorporating loyalty programs. So then that way you can reward your customers for buying and purchasing from you. We can also incorporate gamification in marketing campaigns. Make it fun so then that way people can engage with your brand as well. This builds a loyal fan base for your restaurant so people would order from you more and they would actually spend more with your restaurant. The fifth and final psychological hack that you should utilize is the pratfall effect. What is that? It means a simple blunder, a simple mistake that an authority or person or brand of position makes. Makes the person or the brand much more relatable, much more likable. And why is that the case? It means the fact that if a brand or person has flaws and is able to admit to the flaws, able to laugh at its own flaws and shortcomings, then it makes it much more relatable, much more likable because it's just like one of us. That's the pratfall effect. But there's a caveat guys. You must be perceived as a successful brand or a successful restaurant because if you're not, it might actually backfire on you. It might seem like you're already not popular and now you have another mistake, you can't own up to it and you're just a sinking ship. So definitely if you don't have the fundamentals right, if you don't have the proper branding done, then this is a psychological hack that you would probably not want to use just yet. In 2008, Domino's was going downhill. Instead of them burying their head in the sand and not rectifying it, they actually made a campaign about it, addressing this issue and sharing with the public what they're gonna do to change it, owning up to the mistake and being truly authentic. Domino's pizza crust to me is like cardboard. Is it smart to watch this stuff? Is this good for some? Yeah, it's hard to watch. I hear what some folks are saying about our stuff. This one's bad. Worst excuse for pizza I've ever had. You can either use negative comments to get you down or you can use them to excite you and energize your process of making a better pizza. I can't wait to have people try it. And it's not even about being right. It's about us having great food. Well, I actually appreciated Domino's being so authentic and being able to owning up to their mistakes. They became supporters of them and they work together to re-grow this brand to what it is today. So what's opportunity for you guys? If there is a mistake, if there's a shortfall in your company, what are you gonna do, own up to it. Use it as your weapon. Use it as something that you're working on and that you're willing to work on it with your supporters. So then that way, you guys are in it together.  And that's the five psychological hacks that these big companies that Domino's are using to get people to spend more with them and to create loyal fans that buy from them again and again.

How's it going everybody? Dato Doi here with another Dragon Ball Fighterz video and in this video we're going to be talking about Base Goku and Base Vegeta and more specifically discussing how good they are in this game. Right away though I will say that the difference in power between Base Goku and Base Vegeta is far less than something like let's say Bardock and Broly, you know? I think both of these characters have their merits and you will be seeing them a lot online and probably in tournament play as well. With that said though there is always going to be a better character out of the two and I think this time around that honor has to go to Base Vegeta. But we'll go more in depth as to why I think he's the better character out of the two after we get done discussing Base Goku. So Base Goku's main strength comes in the form of his raw damage potential. This is a character that can get massive damage both off of his level 1 super depending on how many of his teammates are left and he also has access to some very damaging combos depending on how much of his spear bomb he has charged up. If he has his hand spear bomb charged up to level 3, if he lands any hit whatsoever he can transition into that hand spear bomb and then just spend three bars to drop down his damaging level 3 super spear bomb and that's about all she wrote for that character. Of course the damage for this character only gets better with more optimization. If you have a team built around this character that can DHC into his super spear bomb then your team is going to have really early kill potential. All of these strengths makes him a character that you do want to have in the back of your team just waiting to get some either DHC damage or just the last line of defense in case you want to rely on that Kaioken times 20 damage for only one bar. That being said though for a character that you want to have in the back of your team his assist really isn't all that. Outside of the corner you're going to find yourself having a very hard time either converting into combos with this thing or just continuing them. It lacks the crazy property of causing a sliding knockdown like Goku blues assist and it also lacks the utility of a beam assist found in Super Saiyan Goku and Goku Black. That being said base Goku's next con is one that is shared between Super Saiyan Goku and him and that's the fact that he also doesn't have a down light. I've covered this a lot on this channel so I won't go too into depth but this is going to make it harder to open up your opponents without the use of assist and it's just another thing that really limits your offense. It's one of those things that you really really really want to have on your character if at all possible. One character that does have a low hitting 2L is base Vegeta and while that's not the only thing separating him from base Goku it is definitely something that you are going to appreciate when playing the character. Other things that come to mind when thinking about just how good base Vegeta is is his insanely fast ki blast which allows for him to do some pretty wonky staircase combos both in the corner and outside of the corner and with new routes being discovered these don't even require assist anymore. Both of these combo routes result in some pretty hefty damage around the 5000 range and then you can also add supers in on top of that. Whether or not you add in assist to these combos is entirely up to you but that also adds on more damage as well. It also helps that another thing base Vegeta is really great at is the wake up game. This is when you have your opponent down on the ground and you're going to force them to eat a mix up. You can go high low, empty jump low, you know dragon rush etc all of these are different options and base Vegeta makes it very tricky to see which one he's going for. This is because of multitude of reasons. He has a lot of different tools that allows him to get some very dirty mix ups. One is whipping his destructive disc and either air dashing in or landing and going for a lower dragon rush. Another one is whipping a knee stop and then holding forward to make them guess which way you're going again or you can just stick to the classics and do something every other character can but that doesn't change the fact that Vegeta has a lot a lot of options on here while your opponent really doesn't have all too many. This can make base Vegeta feel very very oppressive in the corner and that's actually a really big problem for any opponents facing base Vegeta because he can get you there super easily. Like I said those staircase combos outside of the corner they're going to put you right in the corner as soon as base Vegeta touches you. Base Vegeta does have some cons however though they're not very big ones. Like base Goku his assist really isn't all that great but he does throw the destructive disc up covering some airspace so it does have some usability at long range and you know it acts like any other single hit in the corner you can still definitely get some extensions off of it. Other than that not too much comes to mind when I think of weaknesses for base Vegeta. His neutral really isn't the greatest it's not as good as Bardock or Super Saiyan Vegeta but I really don't think that matters too much considering how fast base Vegeta is and the fact that you could just use some assist to help him out in that phase of the game anyway. I think his strengths once he gets the hit definitely more than make up for his weaknesses outside of the combo game and that's pretty much all I have to say about base Goku and base Vegeta in terms of their in-game competitive level. Like I said I do think base Vegeta is definitely better than base Goku but go ahead and let me know your thoughts on that down below in the comments. Another thing I want to cover in this video though is just how good these characters are for the game. As in do they make the game a more enjoyable experience overall and I think for these two the answer is definitely really split for me. They are another version of Goku and Vegeta which is really not all too needed when you consider the fact that Dragon Ball is just a huge franchise with fan favorite characters from almost every era of the show. That being said though I completely understand the decision to put these two in the game they are favorites over in Japan and they are just early iterations of some of our favorite characters of all time. Gameplay wise though I do think these two bring a lot to the table. I mean they should. Again they this is like their fourth time at the formula of Goku and Vegeta so they better be good but these characters really bring some individuality to the game that we don't see amongst all the cast. Goku has this Kaio-ken which operates completely differently from all other level ones in the game and his level three is also super fun and unique and it was a lot of fun trying to find different ways to combo into it. Base Vegeta has those staircase combos I mentioned which isn't something a lot of other characters do it's only unique to him so I think in terms of gameplay these two are definitely good for the game it allows people who want to play different styles maybe these were the styles they were looking for. That about wraps up everything I wanted to say for this video let me know your thoughts on base Goku and base Vegeta how much fun you've been having with them how much success you've been finding and just whether or not you're enjoying them. Let me know all of that down in the comments below I'll be down there as always.

Now look, this Catholic idolatry, I mean, just think about it. I mean, we're in this country, we're actually probably a little too used to it, I think. But think about how strange it is. I mean, just think about, no one knows what Jesus looks like. Yet everybody's painting this picture. Think about that. Think about how weird that is. What if I told you, like, hey, I have this friend, his name is George, he's a really good friend of mine. He's a good friend of mine, we're like, what does he look like? I'm like, well, here, here, here's George. What? This is George. How about if I made it like some naked picture of George? That'd be even weirder. Right? I was like, well, you know, I got this other friend, his name's Brother Ryan. Here, what? Does he look like this? I have no idea. It's weird. You see my point? I mean, I'm being funny, but it's strange. It's sickening, really. Wouldn't that be insulting to Brother Ryan? I mean, this is my friend, Brother Ryan. That's insulting to him. Brother George. It's insulting. I mean, look at his teeth. Look, it's insulting. You want to insult God? I mean, it's blasphemous. It's what it is to make some sculpture of the Lord Jesus Christ who's naked and put him in a church for everyone at the center for everyone to look up. That's not even him. I mean, to make paintings where he's holding a sheep. It's not even him. It's not even him. It's just they're making fake gods. And while they're doing it, they're insulting the Lord Jesus Christ. I mean, how hard is it to understand that no one knows what Jesus looks like?  Who would even make a portrait of somebody that they don't even know what they look like? It's weird, but just because it's this major Catholic church that everyone's used to, we're all desensitized to it. It should make us mad. It should make us sick. I mean, they're insulting the Lord Jesus Christ.


what's going on guys it's your boy DPJ here today with another destiny video so the first of the three bungee streams has not long ended and today we learned about the new things to do come April 12th when the next major content update hits the stream featured a lot of new info some of which I will cover in videos to come but here and now I just want to give you guys all the major info we learned from the first of these three streams okay so we now know that the new increased light score will be a 3 3 5 so that's a 15 score increase not as much as I did think would come to be honest so what about the new things to do which they revealed in this stream well we will be getting new bounties new quest lines there's a new mission there's also a new strike they have also given a prison vowed as a facelift bringing it to end game levels and they've also added a new challenge mode for end game players they've also brought back an original strike that being the winter's run aka the Arkham Priest but this time it's taken style now this update and the majority of the PvE content for this update sent us back on the reef and with Varix Varix has been imprisoned and taken within the prison of Alders so when we do play this new and improved prison of Alders that's what we will face there will be new mechanics and new challenges to come with it now we will check out more of the prison of Alders later in the video let's move on to the quests so the quest with the update sent with Varix but Sony players will get an exclusive quest via Petra but let's look at the new quest available to all so the first new quest line is called at the gates now with Oryx being dead they're taking need a new main man his name is Moloch with this quest we get the new mission called pretend that we're thrown where we go and find and face off against Moloch how far and deep this quest goes at the moment we don't know the second quest is called return to the prison here to start we will be directed towards a new prison of elders which has been brought up to a level 41 for all us end game players but I do believe it goes further than the prison of Alders now before we get into the new and improved prison of Alders let's lastly talk about the original strike being brought back with a revamp the strike is the winter's run this strike will pop up within the heroic strike playlist with unique rewards obtainable the winter's run was home to maybe my favorite strike boss that being the Arkham Priest let's take a look at him as a taken combatant okay so unto the biggie and the main part of the April update which is the prison of Alders well first off the original prison of Alders is still intact for all those new players who have not yet encountered scholars in his original form now the new stuff is as follows we have this new prison of Alders encounter which is a new and improved a level of 41 this is also match made so if you play with our team do not threat so this mode is basically the original level 28 version with four random bosses what's interesting with this though is within this mode there is also a taken variant which plays out at 850 50 so sometimes within this mode you will face off against original prison of Alders bosses and other times you will face off against taken bosses within this mode you'll be able to unlock a chest upon completion and the amazing thing is well actually two amazing things you can run this as many times as you want within a week and keep collecting that loot and you also no longer need a key to open a chest at the end which in my opinion was the worst thing about the original prison of Alders within this mode as well you will also earn vanguard marks rewards from this version though I can confirm will only help you hit that 320 light score once 320 has been hit which is a recommended light score for what awaits which is the new prison of Alders challenge mode the challenge of the Alders this is a level 42 arena to enter this mode you will need to purchase a challenge of the Alders entry from Varix on the reef which costs you 100 glimmer let's take a closer look at what this is you can see states earn points and win favour in challenge of the Alders we can see you have a high score which is 30,000 an accumulative score of 90,000 the high score of 30,000 it's a score tally you and your team must hit within the challenge of Alders your whole team score count towards your goal of 30,000 the cumulative score is your score but not as an individual so to speak but you can tally up to 90,000 by running the challenge of the Alders as many times as it takes with as many different people as you want for an example you run it once and get a total team score of 30,000 and then run it again with different people and get a total team score of 25,000 you'll then have a cumulative score of 55,000 the entry bought from Varix only last one week and the rewards others follows for the high score of 30,000 once achieved you will receive up to a 335 light score weapon for the cumulative score you will receive up to a 335 light score armour so that is how you get up to a 33 max light score it's by running the challenge of the Alders week in week out it's important to note though that each week the challenge of the Alders will have three schools aka modifiers one of these schools will be a score bonus on stream we saw that it was precision kill bonus so precision kills give you more score towards your targets of 30 and 90k each week the score bonus will change there are four individual score bonuses but then paired with the other two modifiers there are possible 16 different challenge variants in total so four months worth it's also important to note that this is not matchmaking so you will need to find a team another thing with the score modifiers I believe as the rounds go up the score obtainable for that increased point modifier increases more about challenge of the Alders it's a three round activity made up of eight different buses there is no treasure room at the end challenge of the Alders is purely for score for your entry which is your form of rewards here like I said it's three rounds but these rounds are timed at five minutes once that time is up that it starts to take away your score also as well as score for killing a bonus score for whatever the modifier is in this case it was precision kills you also get points towards your score for orbs created I am coming to an end of the video now but just to add that there will be three weekly bounties available via Varix which will give you house of judgment rep and experience these bounties are for the new prison of Alders mode and also the challenge of the Alders but that is it I believe guys that's what I and we have learned via the stream of what to do come April 12th next week we get to see what we can earn which I'm super pumped for what I will do now is go through the stream once again and see if I've missed any minor details which I think are worth covering which I may have missed to be honest but guys I hope you enjoyed the video do drop a like I do appreciate the support tell me what you think about the return of prison of Alders and what it might offer and I'll catch you guys on the next one peace out until next time POST!


Lusaka Bais Loko Enteprinyuwa hizimete kemiko formula hizimete raba wa plastic into clean energy gas which can be used in any motor vehicle as fuel. Presently, Central African Renewable Energy Corporation Limited is able to produce 700 liters of cheap clean fuel from its main plant in Shantumbu area in Lusaka. The LPG gas being produced from the plant has been certified by the Zambia Bureau of Standards. The process of converting waste into fuel teks fwa hours of combustion for the end product to be produced, which includes petrol, low sulfur diesel and cooking oil. Something we've done now, we have seen that it's a concept that is workable, it's been proven, and so we need additional investment in this. Central African Renewable Energy Corporation Limited Director says the company is ready to scale up production up to 200,000 liters of fuel per day if financial resources are made available. Produce something like 200 tons per day which is ideally 200,000 liters of fuel per day and to be able to do that we're looking at an investment of around 2 million dollars. And by Z founder has called on lending financial institutions to consider investing in the project as it is viable and key in producing cheap fuel. Private sector out there, especially the banks, let's not only collect deposits from your clients, you can take this project as your own. We have been told that the project in order to run at full capacity it needs about in the excess of 2 million dollars. I think that is a colossal sum of money. After waiting for close to five hours, it was time to test the genuineness of the fuel produced at the plant. One could not tell the difference, the conventional petrol as the vehicle in which it was tested was running smoothly. From our plant in Shantumbo knowing that our product is a clean product.

About to go out here and get this cheese. We're gonna be doing some roti, roti, roti with a devarage. We're gonna be doing an act that I use called roti. Now, our first order is a walled migratie by the pull-up get busy. Hey, and I'm glad you guys are with me. We are picking up a barbecue grill. We're gonna drive six miles and receive a payment of 1980. Guess what? It's my town, my little baby. Let's go. 24-05. What? Is this big? Oh yeah. Thank you. You got it? Right here. Gotta scan it. Thank you very much. You too. Hit him with the scan, Ski. So we can get these bands, Ski. Got that? We are good to go. Let's go. And just like that, we are here to drop off this grill. We gotta hit him with the scan, Ski. So we can get these bands, Ski. Hit him with the scan, Ski. I'm actually gonna try to carry it this time. Oh, this one's not that heavy. This is low key light. Let me get our pockets tight. Gotta carry it kind of weird, though. It's all good. Light is hot. We need a doorbell. Guess what we're gonna do after that. Now, we gotta step back in with the photo. Y'all know those? Man, let's go. Order number two. Getting to this money is what we do.  I've never been here before, but hey, this money we will not ignore. We are picking up two chairs in an ottoman. We're gonna drive 11.69 miles and receive a payment of $50.53. Enough money to pay the rent. Let's go. And just like that, we are here at home to get it on when it came on my microphone. I'm not sure where else I was supposed to go with my first time coming here, so. Oh. Oh, she worked in here. Excuse me, do you work here? Yes. I'm gonna have an order to pick up for Theresa again. Thank you. Thank you. You too. I'm gonna bring this car back in here, right? Yeah, you can just put it right in that thing like there. All right. You have a good one. Just like that, we are here with these chairs we're about to put in the air. What we say, they ain't that heavy at all.  Pretty like, you guys are the truth. Hey, we're already kind of taking us up top. This is like, I think this should be like a hundred, a hundred to like 125 out of order. Honestly, in my opinion, that's me. And just like that, it's time to hit the road and get our pockets on smoke. Let's go. And just like that, we are here at the drop-off location. I'm gonna run the door, but I'll see exactly where they want everything to get. Because they got like three doors in a garage open right now. So we gotta see exactly where they want us to put everything. So we can get this growing in between. Hello, how you doing sir? We're here with your at home delivery. It was two chairs in like a ottoman. Yes, yes. So where exactly did you want to put everything at? You by yourself? Well, my partner's in the van too. So you want to take these out? Yes. Okay. That's fine.  Mm-hmm. So they're recliners. Let me see, let me test it. Not bad. Is it okay? Yeah, that's fine. I mean, I'm offering lunch. You can say, sir, I'm sorry. No, that's fine. That's fine. It's okay? Yes, sir. So it needs to be right here. Okay. So let me make a lunch for you quick. Okay. Okay, so open the gate, right? Mm-hmm. Okay. Where is this original? Okay, and then we'll back in. Yes. Let me test for the two. Okay. Let me put this over here. So here. I know that was messed up. That'd be extra. Okay. We thought, that's the deal, it's on the table, but that's where I assembled. Okay. I appreciate it. Thank you. Here you have this. And the lunch is ready. When you guys finish. I'm the kind of guy, you know? I'm making delivery myself with the semi. Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah? Yeah. How long you been doing that? Right after military, I don't know, like 30 years. Yeah? So you have your own semi? No, I'm working for somebody. Mm-hmm. So you've been doing it for 30 years? Yeah. How are the race? I heard the race are pretty bad right now. Or you just work for the company, so it doesn't work. I work for the company, so I'm an early guy, you know? Like, or even if I go over the road, you know? This, the way they put the screw in is off. You see it? Yeah. I hope it'll make the thing do like that. You know what I'm saying? Mm-hmm. I don't know.  No, the black piece. Okay, okay. Someone already had it on there. Pretty cool dude, all right. See, I noticed you was like, each week. I knew he was coming right here, and I knew that you could keep one of these, or we could try to fix the other one and keep that, too. Do we sell it? It's pretty, and nice shape. She's like... Yeah. Well, maybe it's just not all in all the way.  Let's not do a look at it.  Sounds a little flip. The game is over, and those chairs are in very nice condition, so I may keep them on, though. We make it resell them. My business partner can take them home. I can take them home. Whatever you want to do with them joins, baby. But we can get busy, and I'm glad you guys are with me. We went in and moved kind of swiftly. It really took us about 25 minutes all to get to do everything. That's everything we had to do, and we made $120.53 enough money to pay the rent. We ride around the beans with no tent. Let's go. Order number three. Sounds like my guy, R&D Bishop, baby. I need you guys to do it favorably. Put that right there, baby. Do me this favor. I really need you guys to do this right. Go subscribe to my guy channel. He's from where I'm from. I used to kick with him as a kid. He is at 800 subscribers as we speak right now.

We are picking up 10 bags of moche, four bags of like pebbles, like kind of like rock things. And then we're going to drive four miles and make 45, 48. Don't be good. Be great. About to go over here and get this cake. Let's go. Just like that. We are here at Home Depot. Get it popping like Crisco. Woo. How you doing, boss? I'm gonna have an order to pick up or a roadie order for a first name, it's Catherine. Where's your car? I don't know. There's a bit of like spit heavy. Yeah, the van is right here. She put it up right here. It's trying to pull it up as close to the door as possible. And I'll be with our home coward, too. Okay. I appreciate your help, too. In time, man. In time, thank you guys.  Get some fresh air. No workout, too, you know? Yes, sir. And I'm wrong with that. And I'm wrong with that. Make the best of what you have. Oh, this is... How do you stop? I need the pebbles. Yeah. It's got them like that. They're not so bad, though. Oh, yeah. This four of them. Come on. One second, in my face.  All right, then. Thank you very much, sir. I appreciate your help. You have a great one. Yes, sir. We'll do. And we are here at the drop-off location. And it is beautiful. I don't know. It is beautiful.  Well, the customer did not answer the door, so guess what? We got to leave it right here, baby. They got to pull everything in the back of this joint. It's a funny front door, because we didn't want to block it. So, we're going to leave it off to the side. After that, we're going to slide. Now, no one's going to ride. We know how to get some comments about hard work. This is like, that ain't a lot. This is sweet. We came here to get the job done.

So there's this one weird thing that's killing furnaces and air conditioners everywhere. I'm Nate Adams, CEO of HVAC 2.0 and often known as Nate the House Whisperer. So what we're going to talk about, this is a very real thing. This is not fear, uncertainty and doubt. About half of systems are at serious risk of early failure and I'm going to show you the numbers on that later. But first, let's talk about what happened. So back on July 3rd of 2019, which is just a little over two years before I'm recording this, the Department of Energy changed the type of furnace fan that goes into new furnaces. They went from an old school kind that was not very sensitive to a new school kind that is. And that has been already causing more problems than perhaps I would have expected. And what is that weird thing? The weird thing is called duct pressure. There is pressure inside the ducts and the easiest way to think of this is think of a balloon that is blown up and that is either tied or that you're holding the end of. There is pressure inside that that can't go anywhere. The technical word is static pressure because it's pressure that's static. It can't go anywhere. Now if a system is installed well, this isn't a problem. The trouble is most aren't. So like I said, only two years later we're hearing a surprising number of failures. So duct pressure. Easiest way to think of this besides being in a balloon is this is the blood pressure of your HVAC system. And we're going to take that analogy a little bit further shortly. For my technical friends that are watching this, this is also known as external static pressure because technically it is external to the system or the box itself. So it's before and after the furnace of the heat pump. And then it's often shortened to static pressure. But we're just going to call it duct pressure because it's easier just kind of understands. And if I mean, if you're a homeowner and that's my intention here, it's easier just to think of it that way. Now this is a well known problem by the way. So there's even a meme for it. High static. Like I was saying, that's the technical term for it. Here's Pac-Man eating ECMs, which is the type of motor that is the problem here. It's both a good and a bad thing as we'll get to. But this is a well known thing in the industry. Now the other side of static pressure is velocity pressure. So if you open up the end of that balloon, you're going to get velocity pressure coming out the end of it. Duct work works the same way. You need enough pressure inside the ducts so that air will come out. So you have to have duct pressure if you're going to have velocity pressure. If to duct pressure, then velocity pressure, it's a requirement. And just like a balloon, if it's too high, the balloon pops. If it's too low, there's no flow coming out of the end. So let's move this over to thinking about your heart and circulatory system versus your air handler or the furnace fan and the duct system. So there is a place that you want to be when it comes to blood pressure. So you want to be between 90 over 60 and 120 over 80. That's just right.  Now if you're on the very high side here, above 160 over 100, you're at pretty high likelihood of a heart attack. So that's one of the reasons that this is so commonly measured.  Those are the key things you know they're going to check because they help give you an idea of what's going on very quickly. So duct pressure is just the same way. So where blood pressure, you've got a sweet spot between 90 over 60 and 120 over 80. In duct pressure, you want to be between 0.08 inches of water column. Don't ask me why this is the metric. It's the metric. Blame the British. They're the ones that gave us these crazy systems and then abandoned us to the metric systems. So they can call us traders, but when it comes to metrics, I call them traders to the metric system. But you want to be between 0.08 and 0.3 inches of water column. If you have a system in here, it's going to be quiet and it's going to use very little energy compared to the previous system. If you're too low, you have a problem like up here.  So that's a bad thing. And in duct pressure, you can be too low as well, although frankly, the only time I've seen this is after we have done a project and I freaked myself out on how low the pressure was. And in those cases, the system still worked fine. So I don't think this is a major issue and it's certainly not common. Just like blood pressure, your main issues are on the high side, not the low. Okay, so let's take a look at what this looks like. Like I said, between 0.08 and 0.3 is good. Where you don't want to be is upwards of an inch of static pressure. So most furnace fans and air handler fans, if you have a heat pump, are rated for a half an inch of static pressure. You can go look through the catalog or the manual and it's probably going to say half an inch is what they're rated for. When you get to double that with the new kind of motors, these tend to die. And they can die pretty quickly. Now if you are just above the 0.7 range, 0.7 is generally considered to be where the risk factor of early failure starts to go up. But if you're at 0.7 or above, your fan is going to be noisy more than likely or expensive to operate. So I did a comfort consult for one fellow. We turned his fan on and his duct system actually oil canned. It went boom boom when it blew up with air and I'm like, oh man, that's not good. I got to go get my drill and checked with the static pressure and he was over an inch. So when that's the case, they can be very expensive to operate and prone to early failure. And as I'll show in a data set here shortly, most systems are at some risk of problems. Anything over a half an inch is at risk. Is it a huge risk between 0.5 and 0.7? Nah, probably not. But it might be depending on whether the fan's sensitive or not. And here are what the main risks are of this. So the big one that we're talking about here is a failed fan motor. It's where the fan motor burns up because it's working too hard and can't do its job. A really serious one is a cracked heat exchanger because you aren't moving enough air across the furnace heat exchanger. So it gets too hot and then metal will crack as it expands and contracts too much. So that can be a problem. And when it cracks, that can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning. And this is a non-trivial risk. My mom actually almost died of this from cracked heat exchangers. Frozen air conditioner coils, if you've ever had the indoor unit of your air conditioner just totally freeze into a literal block of ice, that's probably because airflow was too low because static was too high is usually what's going on. If you have zoning, this can lead to very noisy systems or early fan failure. And you can also get broken compressors. It's basically how air conditioning works is it's switching the phase of the refrigerant from liquid to gas and back again. And if it doesn't have enough heat to remove, it can actually come back in as liquid and it will then break the compressor, which is a very bad thing. Now next up, let's talk about the two types of fan motors because this is what fundamentally caused the issue here of the one weird thing. So PSC, don't ask me what it stands for, this is the old school technology. So I picture this like Jack Lambert of the Steelers. I mean, that was a dude you just didn't want to mess with. Tuff uses a ton of energy and seldom breaks. So it's a nice technology from at least that one perspective. The new one is called an ECM. It's an electronically commutating motor. So it's an EC motor as opposed to an ECM motor because I will get a hard time if I say ECM motor. But these are touchy. So I view these like a soccer player that's a bit of a prima donna. You touch the guy on the ear and he falls over writhing in pain. He's obviously having fun here, but this is very much what they're like. So here's how this ends up working. So when it comes to PSC motors, they just don't care when there's really high static pressure. In fact, what they end up doing is very similar to I picture Scooby-Doo running. And his legs are flailing, but he's not actually going anywhere. That's what PSC motors end up doing. They spin and they actually use less energy against higher static pressure, but they don't move any more air, where ECMs are trying to move more air. So if you put an ECM against high static pressure, anything over 0.7, they don't like it because they will ramp up to move as much air as they have to. And if they ramp up beyond what they're capable of, they can burn up. And often they do. So I want to take a look at the energy use charts. This is a general chart. This is just to show the shape of the curves. So some of my technical friends are going to watch this and have a cow chill. So a PSC motor, its usage looks like this as airflow goes up. So they don't turn down super far, only to maybe half of what the full speed would be. So if it's a 1,200 CFM fan max, it probably doesn't turn down below 600. And CFM is cubic feet per minute. And so the Scooby-Doo effect is what happens up here. They actually use less energy as the airflow needs or really it's the pressure get higher. And the reason that this regulation was put into place is an ECM, an electronically commutating motor. If you put it up against low duct pressure, it uses almost no energy at low speed. I'm clocking these between 15 and 40 watts. And I mean, that's a few LED light bulbs to move 300 cubic feet per minute. So they use almost nothing at low speeds, which is, again, why right-sized variable speed equipment is important because most of the year, your HVACs can be running on low. And you're going to be taking advantage of this. And then when they are ramped up, they still use a lot less energy than the PSCs. So they use less power at all points with an ECM versus a PSC with a low duct pressure situation. Now let's flip that script. And let's put that ECM against high duct pressure. So the energy use curve, according to Jim Bergman of Measure Quick, not only is it a cube function, but it's actually a to the fourth function. So when you start working it hard, energy use goes up really quickly. It's a very geometric-looking curve. And so this is where the trouble happens. So you actually use more power with an ECM than you do with a PSC. That's a problem because the other thing is when you're getting to those levels, you're running that inch of static or you're running high. And this is where your likely fan death happens in one to three years. So this is something to be aware of. Now let's take a look at what the government had in mind as they did this. So this is out of the ACHR News, Air Conditioning, Heating and Refrigeration News, chart that I pulled from one of their articles. And this is what the Department of Energy was planning on as far as static pressure or duct pressure. So units with an internal evaporator coil at a half an inch, that's a heat pump. So that just has the coils, the fan and the coil. That's what heat pumps have. Units designed to be paired with an evaporator coil. So this is a furnace and the evaporator coil is an air conditioner. So it's a furnace plus an air conditioner, 0.65 maximum. And units designed to be installed in a mobile home at three-tenths of an inch. So 0.5, 0.65, 0.3. Note that all of these are below the 0.7 that I'm talking about. So here's what the DOE assumption looks like on the chart. Now let's look at some actual data. So this is data from almost 800 systems and it's nationally representative. So this is a pretty good data set and it's a very rare data set. I'm lucky to have this. But this is static pressure on the bottom and this is how many systems that there are in that category on the other axis. First thing to note, half an inch is the rated pressure of just about every furnace or heat pump fan out there. If you look at it, they're rated at half an inch of water column. Well over half the systems here are above that. Now really important points, these are systems where there's a contractor that's actually measuring this stuff and there's only a few percent of contractors that are actually measuring and some of these are likely post install numbers if they're paying attention probably lower than pre-install. So the odds are this data set is better than reality, not worse. And even with a better than likely reality data set, we still have over half of systems above half an inch which is where we don't want to be. Now, there we are, I'm just hammering that home. The real danger level though is agreed to be about 0.7 inches of static. So that is where you get to danger zone, static pressure, duct pressure. This is where that meme comes back in, high static. Yeah, this whole area here, you're getting into risk. So if you are an inch and higher, this is where your failure in one to three years is likely from the fan. And if you are below that in the 0.7 to one inch range, you still have pretty likely failure before the system reaches end of useful life. And because of the problems I was talking about earlier between cracked heat exchangers and frozen coils and things, this could still get you in trouble with the rest of the system and this almost surely will. So it won't just break the fan, it'll probably break something else. And again, this is almost half of systems, it's about 47%. So here's where the issue is. I mentioned the Department of Energy Assumption between 0.3 and 0.65 inches of duct pressure. Reality is half of systems, nearly so, are above 0.7. So almost half the systems on the market, and again, that's probably better than reality, are above that 0.65 maximum of the regulation. So this is what's causing problems. So let's talk about causes and solutions. So we'll go back to the heart in the circulatory comparison. So the main causes of this are that you have too much blood to flow because we're fat. So if you're fat, you have all that extra fat that has blood vessels in it, and it's more that your heart has to do all the time. So you're making it pump more volume because you're fat. And the other side is constricted blood vessels. And to be clear, I'm fat. So I'm guilty here too. But if you have too much blood to flow because there's too much body to serve or you have constructed blood vessels constricted that are filled with garbage, these are the things that lead to high blood pressure and then a high risk of heart attack. Makes sense? Let's translate that over to ducks. So the first one is there's too much air to flow, which means your equipment is oversized. So ballpark is every ton of air conditioning requires 400 cubic feet per minute. So a three ton system needs 1200 cubic feet per minute. A four ton needs 1600. As ballpark, it can be less. There's a whole bunch of factors in there, but rough numbers, if you can drop down a size, you're going to substantially reduce how much pressure is in the system. So I mentioned how energy use is to the fourth power equation. Static pressure against increased flow is a squared function. So one example, a system I tested a few years back, I increased the flow of it 38%, which almost doubled. It was an 85% increase in duct pressure. That's how that works. So it's still, it's a pretty big deal. So you hit a wall with duct pressure and you don't want to try and make that system use too much. So if you can downsize the system, so it needs less, that is a good thing. And what that ends up doing then is right sizing the duct work. And so here's the simplest solution. You add what's called a bad. I'll show you what that is in a minute and you downsize the system, which naturally right sizes the ducts. So pretty consistently, here's what we see. We start with systems in the 0.7 to an inch range, maybe over an inch and post install. Pretty much every system that we have done has come in between 0.08 and 0.4. And remember 0.5, that's not like a hard limit, but that's where things start getting a little shady. But we have stayed below that with all the systems that we have replaced. Now let's look at what we call a sad. Yes, it's a joke, you can laugh. That stands for small air drop. So let's look at what that is. Here's a standard furnace. This is an abasement. This is super common in my part of the country. It's not common in a lot of places, but most homes in cold climates have basements. And here's what it looks like. So this is the return drop. So this is the air coming down and then it turns and it goes up through the furnace. So this is the furnace flew and this is the supply duct. There is a little tiny filter that's jammed in here that's trying to handle all this airflow. But notice how small this return drop as it's called because it drops to the furnace. Note how small that is compared to the supply. So this is eight inches wide and this is more like 24. That's not a good match and that's very typical. An eight by 24 is probably the most common drop size. Now think about the airflow. So it's coming down here, turning and coming up. If this was water, because basically at the pressures that we are running in our houses, air flows very similar to water. So if you picture water flowing through your system, that's probably not that far off of how it's actually working. So the airflow is coming down and then it's asked to make it. Well, first it slams into the ground here and then is forced to turn around. That means that the air here is turbulent. Turbulence is bad when it comes to energy use. It's also not great for filtration. So who knows exactly what part of this filter is gonna get hit, but the odds are well it's probably actually this part right here is getting hit with dirt to filter out because the air isn't even hardly making it to the other side, because it's in such a hurry to make that corner. So what that looks like is turbulent flow inside. So picture a mountain stream with a bunch of rocks in it. That's turbulent flow. Smooth flow is when you can't see any rocks or anything. It's just rolling along. Now here's how this ends up working. So I didn't test in this particular system. That was before I was doing this, but let's say it's an inch of static because it was kind of noisy. So this is an actual picture that one of the HVAC 2.0 contractors sent me. And it looks like he has upwards of 6% of their systems that have the absolute top end system installed. 6% of them are above 1.1, which sends an error from the manufacturer that you need to either reduce the quality of the filter so it allows more airflow or increase the duct size. So the manufacturers know that there's a serious risk of failure and they have it programmed in at 1.1. And that was 6% of systems. So that's not non-zero, that's for sure. But say the system was at an inch before, I suspect it was probably closer to 0.7. But if it wasn't an inch, that means that that fan is at pretty strong risk of failure within three years. Now the fix for this is called the bad or the big airdrop. And note, so this is the same system that was replaced later. I'm step back another step or two, but it's the same system. Note how big the return drop is. This is now 24 by 24. At install, this is not a big deal. It's marginally more labor and marginally more materials, but it's the same basic task that's being done. So it's not that big of a deal. And note that there is a filter horizontally right here in the system. So the air comes down and as it comes down, now it's smooth, it's a laminar, and it's hitting the whole face of that filter. So now it works really well.  If you are concerned about COVID or getting sick, like basically anything that we humans get sick with, the pathogens travel in our small spit particles. And by running this through very slowly, you're going to catch most of those spit particles. So if you go look at the indoor air quality researchers, what they're recommending, they're pretty much all suggesting a Merv 13 or higher filter and then running a whole heck of a lot of air through it. So this lets you do that. Now normally we would recommend that these ducts be curved going in here as they go down and come back up. And actually it's the internal curve that matters more. But in testing this system, it wasn't a problem. There's so much space here that the air figured it out. It was happy air. And I mean, this is a quick illustration of what happy air looks like. So there's turbulent flow and laminar flow. So if you think about a wing underneath the wing is laminar flow. It's not getting restricted. It's going right where it wants to. Going above is turbulent. So that's not what we want in this case. Now that same system post install came down to 0.2 inches of static.  And on low speed it was at 0.04, which was really, really low and totally freaked me out. Turns out the system works fine. Now this is a ranch. You may or may not get away with this in a two story, but you definitely can get away with it in a ranch. So take a look how nice and low that is. That's really green. And some people will say this is impossible. Well, we've done it a few times. It happens.  So there are six different functions that every HVAC system should be able to do. Every car can do five. Most houses can't do any. I will link the video where I go into this in detail. But this is the basic idea of a bad. So the air comes down through here and you just saw the picture, great big return duct. There's the filter. It turns and comes into here, goes up through the unit again. This tackles load matching, which is super important for comfort. Filtration, which we've been talking about. Dehumidification, this is a heat pump with reheat capability. We bring in fresh air, which is another piece on the health side. Mixing, which is done because it uses almost no energy if you've got big ductwork. It's like set 15 to 40 watts on low. And most of our systems are less than 200 watts on high, which is maybe $20 a month if you run it 24-7. So it's not that much. And then humidification, depending on your climate. So that matters where I live. It might not matter where you do. So that's the bad. The other piece is downsizing. And I'm just gonna touch on this briefly. But the easiest way to do this, the best way to do this is through what we call an HVAC 2.0, the comfort consult. So that's a BlowerDoor test that is a load calculation that is based on your BlowerDoor. It's based on your actual energy use. And you take the error bars from literally with the manual J, which is the industry standard calculation. It can be plus or minus 70%. It can be that wide. Is it always? No, but it can be. Which is crazy. Plus or minus 70% is not a calculation. It's a guess. So if you wanna narrow those error bars, you need to know energy use and BlowerDoor and then it's best to understand that your thermostat settings are in some other things. That's all included in an HVAC 2.0 comfort consult.  Because that will let you downsize, which will make your system quieter and happier. Now, to that point, most systems can be downsized between 20% and as much as 60%. The system that I showed you, that was 120,000 BTU furnace that we turned into a three ton heat pump. That's 36,000 BTU. So we're from 120 to under 40. So that was about a 70% drop in capacity for that system and it heats the house. One of the easiest ways to understand because almost all systems can be dropped to size and many of them can be dropped too. So furnace sizes are typically about 20,000 BTU. So 120 is the biggest, then 180, then 60. If you have $100,000, $100,000 BTU furnace, you can probably go to an 80 with very little risk and you can probably even go to a 60. And the easiest way to figure this out is, pay attention to your HVAC on a really hot or really cold day.  Then it's oversized. So in theory, it should never shut off when we hit design temperatures, which is the coldest 1% of the year, the hottest 1% of the year. The other thing you can do is get an ecobythermostat because those will track the runtime of your system. So you can go look at a hot or a cold day and see what's going on. Or like I mentioned earlier, really the best option is to get an HVAC 2.0 comfort console. Not meaning to sell, just having designed the whole thing and understanding all the intricacies of sizing HVAC well. You really need some more data and that's going to cost a little something to do. But if you are worried about it, that's what goes in there. But the first thing is you want to determine are you at risk before you start worrying about downsizing and any of this other stuff. So remember, the Department of Energy assumption was 0.3 to 0.65 and reality is that about half of systems are above that 0.7, that's risky. And definitely more than half are over the half an inch of static pressure that is problematic. So how do you figure out which way you have to go? Get tested. So if you have an HVAC 2.0 contractor near you, I highly recommend that you call them and this is part of the free quote path. You can ask them to do a static pressure test for a nominal fee. And then you will understand, are you in trouble or are you in the safe zone? If you're in the safe zone, you probably don't have to worry about it too much. If you don't have any comfort issues or anything like that, you can just replace your equipment and move on with life. But if you are on the high side because of that Department of Energy record, Department of Energy regulation, that could be a problem. So you wanna understand what that is. So you wanna understand your risk and then they will be able to help you figure out what the path forward is to reduce that risk. So I hope this was helpful. That is the one weird thing that is killing furnaces and air conditioners everywhere. It's called duct pressure or static pressure. So I'm Nate Adams, have a great day. If you enjoyed the video, you know the drill. Subscribe, click the bell, all that good stuff and share and comment. Have a wonderful day. I'll see you next time. Bye-bye.


Well, unironically after I spend about $600 to fix my 2001 Ford Taurus We are not so lucky and you know on a car. That's only worth a thousand dollars 2001 Ford Taurus even though the mileage is relatively low around 90,000 now There's no way this isn't going to be totaled, you know, it's replaced the bumper the hood All the damage in here, you know, even if it's minor there is no way This is going to be any less than two or three thousand dollars so I guess this is just going to be a matter of How much of a check the insurance company wants to write me for this hunk of crap? You know, I bought new snow tires for the car. It's a little dented But you know for a 20 year old car You know, it's in really good shape and I was hoping to drive it for you know another year or two Just to save up some money for a new car So it's Saturday end of February I don't know the exact date and this is actually the day before I was planning on filming a video for the Monday just to kind of like return to YouTube hopefully and I'm gonna be posting this after that video because I don't want you know this to be you know the first video That that you guys see but it kind of is a testament to how everything's been going lately You know, I'm kind of just so disappointed and over every I wasn't even paying attention on the highway You know, I actually told myself, you know, because I wasn't really focused, you know, that I probably shouldn't drive I should probably take a cab or something home and then not do anything else today but unfortunately I decided to Act to drive over to Queens to drop something up, which is you know normal I usually drive around the boroughs a couple times a week and this time I was going maybe 30 or 40 miles per hour on the Whitestone Bridge and That connects the Bronx to Queens. I don't really know if the guy stopped short, but You know, the lane to the left of me was clear the lane to the right of me was clear You know just the lane I happened to be in was going slow and since I wasn't paying attention I hit the guy going like maybe 25 30 miles per hour I hit my brakes, but it's 2001 four towards if it was if it was a new car I wouldn't have gotten in an accident because even if I hit the brakes as late as I did Now they would have actually worked, but you know going downhill in that heavy car two-wheel drive Snow tires just rained car car wasn't gonna stop in time. Unfortunately, so you guys heard yesterday You know, I've been down in the bus every day trying to keep Frankie's here He's meeting up and running and this is just going to make things a little more difficult Hopefully my dad lets me drive his car a couple days. I don't know if I should rent a car or If I should just I mean obviously I have to find a new car as soon as possible But until that happens, you know, I need something to drive every day It's not like I'm hanging out at home doing nothing. I guess we could take another look at the car damage I honestly don't have enough mechanical knowledge to know if you know It would be safe to drive this car another 40 50 miles Now judging by how you know, the whole block here is hidden. I would guess no Yeah, I don't really think any fluids leaking out of the bottom. I don't see anything Everything is kind of jacked up in here, you know, it wasn't just you know, the hood You know, it did you know kind of dent everything back This over here over here You know, so with my limited mechanical knowledge car definitely isn't safe to drive with my slightly With my slightly higher knowledge of body damage from past accidents Definitely need to buy a new car because the insurance company is not going to fix this I don't know what they're actually going to value the car at to be honest. Either way, they're not going to fix it But you know outside of the You know the scratches on the sides of the car You know, it's in really really good shape, you know, I was hoping to take this for another 100,000 miles.  This is all new. I just replaced all the front brakes It's all new inside. I replaced the ball joints. I replaced, you know, the power steering pump I just put, you know, $700 into this car at the worst time possible, but It's whatever This is kind of weird because I got an email from cars and bids yesterday Which I didn't realize I even signed up for And they were selling a car that I was looking for for a while because it's actually the lowest emf car It's a 1981 Mercedes 300d But there's actually a 250d model as well, which is lower horsepower And they had this all stock Mercedes 250d available for sale I think it ended up going for $12,000 And it only had like 30,000 miles, which actually wasn't that bad It's just, you know, a 250d isn't a safe car to really drive now Even the 300d would be kind of risky I mean, the 0-60 of the 300d might be close to my 2001 4-Taurus But, you know, compared to most cars now, it's not really safe merging on a highway In, you know, a 1980s diesel vehicle But I'm going to go look online later to see if there are any Diesel trucks available around that year with low mileage that are close to me I just, you know, buying a car was the last thing I planned on doing At this point in time I mean, can I go to the junkyard, get a hood, get the front left headlight? I don't really know It looks like there's too much interior damage You know, I bet if you did a really ghetto job of fixing this Like, you went to the junkyard, you parted out The front bumper, the headlight, the hood You know, it probably only cost you a few hundred dollars in parts But I can't imagine the amount of labor to take all of this apart It probably wouldn't even be worth it I would guess this is at least, you know, 15, 20, 30 hours of mechanical work To take the hood off, take the bumper off, take the headlight off Just put everything on You know, the only thing I'm really worried about is buying a new car And by new car, I mean a used car Because there's no way I'm actually buying a brand new car And then having mechanical issues with that one And you know, I always told myself that I'm not going to buy a nice car Until I go for a year or two without getting into an accident in New York City But this is like the second major accident I've been in in my entire life Or well, third actually Third major accident where the car is basically totaled And you're getting close to 30 now Which I don't think is too bad The other accidents that prevented me from getting a car were Just like fender benders Like if I bumped into a car or someone scratched my car I would count that as like alright I obviously don't want to buy a new car But you know, just working down here Not sleeping that well, tired all the time You know, I didn't eat today It's not too enthusiastic It's bound to get into some accidents So it's been about an hour I called up insurance company, tow company, body shop And I found out that I don't have collision insurance on this vehicle So I'm under my parent's umbrella policy This is actually registered in my dad's name So I didn't know the specifics on the policy And then when I called them up they told me Hey, you don't have collision insurance on that vehicle Which basically means you're not covered So what's going to happen is They're going to send this car to the body shop They're going to tell me it's something crazy Like $3,000 to fix it Which is worth more than the car So at least I'm not out that much money The car is worth maybe $1,000, $1,500 And then just a few hundred dollars I invested to fix it a couple of weeks ago The only issue is for me to find a car At $1,000, $2,000, that's this reliable Is incredibly, incredibly, incredibly unlikely You know, I'm probably going to have to spend Money I don't have on a new car So we can't fix this There's probably some internal damage So even if we could go to a junk shop And get the bumper, the hood, and the headlamp It's just not worth it at this point Toe truck's here So I guess we'll wrap this up So it's Wednesday of the next week The crash was five days ago on Friday I went down on Monday to look at the Torah See what the damage was And you know, when I had the accident It was kind of dark outside I couldn't really see the inside of the hood too well And at that mechanic shop Super bright, super sunny Took one look, whole radiator Holder was cracked The suspension, car is definitely totaled They can't fix the Torah So I guess this is the end of Frankie Boy's 2001 Ford Taurus So tomorrow I'm going to go down Give them the title of the car I'm going to salvage it for maybe $500 I could get the snow tires taken off And sell the other tires It's just not really worth, you know What are they worth? $100, $150 And then I got to negotiate with the salvage yard Get the tires off down there But it's not worth it Over this week though I had to rent a car So behind me I have a 2021 Chevy Malibu Guys, after driving a 2001 Ford Taurus Going into a 2021 Chevy Malibu You feel like you're in a race car Granted I had a headache most of the time Because there's actually an antenna in the car It has its own Wi-Fi hotspot And that's the problem with newer cars Is the EMF levels The magnetic, electric as well as radio frequency fields Can be very, very, very high So I've been looking for an older car And I already got one This is a 2009 Honda CR-V Complete Steel 53,000 miles I paid $8,000 for it $8,000 These retail for 25K And normally when you buy a used car That's like 7, 8, 9, 10 years old That has low mileage Usually paying about 40-50% of the new price car This was one quarter This was by far the best deal Out of any low mileage car I saw online By far If you look up 2009 Honda CR-V On any trader website You'll see cars with like 70, 80K miles Listed for 12, 13, 14,000 So I really lucked out On getting this car 8,000 cash, nothing extra, nothing else Maybe you have to put a few more hundred dollars into it But I'll just pay that off on my credit card Hopefully over the next year or so So I'm excited I'm going to get the plates this weekend I did really want to get a nicer car In the name of the business The way things are going financially now And the chances of something happening To the car in the Bronx I figured this was perfect It's four-wheel drive, it's safe The heat works Oh, that's the other thing The 2001 Taurus, the heat didn't work So this 2021 Chevy Malibu With the heated seats And the heat was working And now it's actually warm And the brakes work It's just Cannot drive an old car By no means is a 2021 Chevy Malibu A luxury vehicle By no means is a 2009 Honda CR-V A luxury vehicle But compared to a 2004 Taurus That has broken heat, busted AC Like, not even comparable So hopefully this car lasts me More than a year or two But we'll see That's going to be the update for now So we unfortunately have to say bye-bye To Frankie Boy's 2001 Ford Taurus So I can't make that joke anymore I don't know what the new joke's going to be I guess we'll joke about how I need money To spend on Russian girls to beat me up So one thing I didn't really talk about in this video Is oh, yeah, well, thankfully I'm okay I didn't get hurt But apparently someone wants me to be here too badly

Links, discounts to my favorite things and of course my Facebook group. Come and over and join us there. We'd love to have you. So let's jump in to this week's meal prep. For breakfast this week, I'm making Mediterranean breakfast bake. I'm very excited about this. We're going to get some vegetables in. I have some organic kale, some great tomatoes.  Let me show you what's in breakfast. First you're going to need some eggs, feta cheese, kale, great tomatoes, mild Italian chicken sausage or turkey sausage and of course some salt and pepper. So the first thing I need to do is chop up my kale. So the recipe says one small head of kale. This seems like a lot. So I'm probably going to do about half of it. So about that much of the head of kale and we're just going to rough chop it because we're actually going to add it in with the chicken sausage so it'll wilt down. I haven't added my pound of the chicken Italian sausage to my pan that I sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. We're going to allow this to cook through and brown. Once our browned chicken sausage is browned, I'm going to add in my kale and we're just going to allow this to wilt down for about two to three minutes. We're going to crack 12 eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Whisk the eggs together until fully mixed. We're going to add in some salt and pepper and then give it one more quick whisk together. We're going to spray a six by nine baking dish with some non-stick cooking spray. Here's the kale and sausage mixture. This looks so good. We're going to go ahead and add that to the bottom of our baking dish. We're going to just add our grape tomatoes just dispersed over the sausage and kale mixture. Sprinkle on one half of a cup of feta cheese. This already looks so good and then we're just going to take that egg mixture and just pour it over the top. You just want to make sure that all of the sausage mixture, tomatoes, everything gets covered really well in the egg mixture. We're going to put the Mediterranean egg bake in the 375 degree oven for about 30 to 40 minutes. We want to make sure the eggs are completely set and we get that nice crispy brown edge. I just pulled the breakfast bake out of the oven. Doesn't this look amazing? It smells so good. You can smell that delicious feta cheese. This is going to be my breakfast for the week. I'll probably pair this with some fruit. So the recipe makes eight servings. So it's going to be a pretty good size serving. It is only two points per serving, which is amazing, 251 calories and even more exciting than that. One serving has 25 grams of protein. So that is a great way to start off your day. I always say, make sure your breakfast has at least 20 grams of protein. So we exceeded our goal with this Mediterranean breakfast base. For my lunches this week, I'm making pizza muffins. I told Troy about this and he was really excited. So I'm glad that the recipe makes 12 muffins because I am sure that he'll be eating some of them. But let me show you what is in our recipe. You're going to need all-purpose flour, lots of light shredded mozzarella cheese, a zero point marinara of your choice. You can make the skinny-ish dish or you can buy marinara. Just make sure there's no added sugar. I count rayos as zero points. So I'm going to be using rayos, salt, pepper, poultry seasoning to season up our meat, cream cheese, I'm using regular, I shared in my grocery haul, I couldn't find the light cream cheese. However, when I give you the point, I will give you the points with light cream cheese because most likely that's what you'll be using. And then we're going to do a pound and 99% ground turkey.  We're going to spray a pan with some nonstick cooking spray. I added in my pound of 99% extra lean ground turkey. I'm going to season it up with some salt, pepper and poultry seasoning and allow it to cook through. Into a microwave safe bowl, go ahead and add your two ounces of cream cheese and two full cups, which is one bag of mozzarella cheese. And then we're going to put this in the microwave and allow it to melt down so that we can mix the cheese and cream cheese together really well. So my cheese and cream cheese is melted and mixed. So now we're going to add three quarters of a cup of all-purpose flour and we're going to mix this together and that's going to create the dough for our muffins. I do here. I did go ahead and just mix that together. I added some saran wrap here to my cutting board just so it doesn't get it super dirty. But we're going to roll this out into a rectangle shape so that we can cut out the pizza muffin shapes using either a biscuit cutter or the lid of a mason jar, which that's what I'm going to use. I don't actually own a biscuit cutter. So I'm just going to take my rolling pin and then just roll this out into a rectangle shape. Now using my mason jar lid, I'm just going to cut out 12 circles. This is the shape of the muffin.  We're going to take our dough and we're just going to press it into the muffin pan. You do want to pull it up a little bit on the sides to kind of make a well for the turkey and the marinara filling. To the ground turkey, we're adding half of a cup of our marinara sauce. Mix that together. And then we're going to take the turkey and marinara mixture and go ahead and put that right on top of each of the pieces of dough. We can always go back and add more meat. We need to have enough in our pan here for 12. And we're taking half of a cup of mozzarella cheese and just topping each one of our pizza muffins with some extra cheese. Pizza muffins are going into a 400 degree oven for 15 to 17 minutes. I just pulled our pizza muffins out of the oven. These smell so good. It kind of smells like an Italian restaurant in here, which makes me pretty excited. These look absolutely delicious. I am going to let them cool for a few minutes, pop them out so I can show you the finished products and we'll go over points and calories. And here are the pizza muffins. These look so good. I don't know if you can see how brown and crispy the crust got. You have the ground turkey, AKA sausage on top with marinara and cheese. These are only three points per muffin and only 102 calories. So you could easily have one or two of these as a portion of your lunch or dinner. They make a great meal prep. They are fairly low carb. The only thing with carbohydrates is a little bit of flour. Such a great protein packed lunch. For a snack this week, I'm making pumpkin protein bars. We're getting all the good, yummy sweet pumpkin vibes with some added protein to make this a really well rounded snack. So let me show you what's in our recipe. First you're going to need rolled oats. You'll also need a vanilla or vanilla like protein powder. I'm actually going to use the devotion angel food cake. What I love about this protein powder is it has 20 grams of protein, no sugar added, one gram of MCT per serving. It's gluten free and it has a six enzyme formula and devotion protein powders bake so well. They're absolutely my go-to for baking protein shakes, protein smoothies. I will link devotion down below with a discount. You guys know I have angel food cake, brownie batter, their mocha one. I just love their protein powders. And then you're going to need some almond milk, sugar-free maple syrup. You guys already know I love my Lakonto syrup. To me this tastes like regular syrup, not sugar-free syrup. I will also link Lakonto for you guys with a discount. Pumpkin pie spice, chips of your choice. I'm using Lily's white chocolate chips. You could use regular chocolate chips, whatever your preference. A can of pumpkin puree, baking powder, baking soda and salt. So to get started on our bars, we're going to combine all of our dry ingredients, starting with one cup of rolled oats, one teaspoon of baking soda, and one teaspoon of baking powder. One tablespoon of pumpkin pie seasoning. So I'm just going to put in two big keeping teaspoons because I love pumpkin pie. A pinch of salt, and then two scoops of the devotion angel food, cake protein powder. Go ahead and stir together all of the dry ingredients. To our dry ingredients, we're adding one quarter cup of Lakonto sugar-free maple syrup, one half of a cup of unsweetened almond milk, and one cup of canned pumpkin puree. And then we're going to mix that together until fully combined. I went ahead and sprayed my eight by eight baking dish with some non-stick cooking spray, and then we're going to spoon the pumpkin bar mixture into our baking dish. Spread that out nice and even in the bottom. Then I have two tablespoons of the Lily's white chocolate chips, and we're just going to sprinkle those right on top. I have to tell you, this smells so good, very, very pumpkin-y, so I'm pretty excited. We're popping this into a 350 degree oven for about 20 minutes, or until the toothpick comes out clean. The pumpkin protein bars are out of the oven. These look so good. Look at that, yum. I'm really excited for these for the week. Both Troy and I are excited. This pan makes a total of eight bars. There are only two points per bar. Not only do you get a sweet treat, a pumpkin-y sweet treat, but you also get some protein, or just under 50 grams of protein, which is great for a dessert, snack, or sweet treat. We will definitely be eating all these up this week. Thank you for joining me for another Weekly WW Meal Prep. I hope you are as excited about these three recipes as I am, and don't forget you can find these, as well as all of my recipes on my website. I'll link it down in the description box for you, along with nutrition coaching, links and discounts to my favorite things, and don't forget, we'd love to have you join us on Facebook. Happy Monday, friends, and I'll see you all next time. Bye.
