Minute 18 remaining, he's gonna go to the air, looking for Graham, and he throws an interception! Oh my goodness! Back against the wall, looks like you are going to go down to problem. You get the interception for your championship drive. He's in the shadow of his own goal post, and he'll throw an absolute dunk to McCaffrey. He's at the 30, the 20, the 10, and Dubby takes the lead! Madden, Madden, let's go boys. What's up? I'm a strong 10 and yo, 10 and yo? I mean you picked the plate at f***ing fast, relax bro, god. See now, now this is reverse psychology check. Y'all didn't know that last time, no no, last time, when you took that, you took that! He's my five, respectfully. That's actually crazy bro. Me, I seen your commentary, I saw what you started my video off with. That's Shantae the pick, no no no no no no! It was, it was, it was, it was like, renaissance, but it was like, it was like a, you know what I'm saying? Dude, no no no, that's years ago, I would never do that to you. Yeah, but that's why I made it look old as s***, I made it look old! You got first down good. All right, that's all that, you know what I'm saying? We're even now dude. Yeah, we're even bro, I ain't even worried about it bro. Why'd you do that though? That s*** hurt. I never did that s*** to you. It was like good, it was like a good like memory type of, what the f*** is going on? All right, so that, okay, all right, let's talk about this bro. You get pounded. I know, I know we do, let's go. Good spin move. What new players do you have? I have Dawkins, obviously, and I forget. You have Vince Young as skateboarders?  That seemed like you haven't shunced, I feel like you haven't shunced. I didn't even look, but I feel like you haven't shunced. I feel like you haven't shunced.  You want to know, bro, did you see what EA did to that though? As far as what?  It's been a blast so far. I'm not going to lie. I've been a blast on my end. Oh my God, man. Dude, get off the same defense every play. All you do is audible down 3-3-5 wide. Pray your opponent passes to your nine safeties. I don't know what I do. I'll be honest, I really don't know what I do. I'm kind of glad you're running because it's not scorching me right now. Oh, it's scorching you. We'll be in the end zone in a couple of minutes. Are you sure? Now you got to pass, big boy. Now you got to pass. Come on, Ace. Come on, here we go, post. Quick snap, post. Here it goes. Boy, you gotta be drunk. How'd you been drinking over there? I've been drinking a lot. I'm a little on right now. Hold on. Hold on, hold on, hold on. You gotta catch up. You gotta catch up. Here we go. It's big boy time now. You gotta make a read. Oh, it's the second time you just said that. Yeah, it's like a gun bunch. You don't know what you're doing right now, bro. You don't. Oh, man. Oh, my God, no. Yerserski. No huddle. Come on. Come on. No huddle. Yerserski. No huddle always. You got defense for this? No, but I do. Oh, you're in flood. You are. Good play. All right. Back to the Pound Town, boys. You already know where we're at. I know where we're at. Dude, I wasn't even going to run. But, man.   It's okay. Oh, you just begged me to run. I don't.  I don't even want to run. You would run if I had goal line. I know how you play. You should do the line. You would run. You stand above the tight end. Who are you? I don't know. I don't know where to go. I'm like labbing. I don't know. What do you want me to tell you? I have no choice at that point but to run. I can't stop a nosebleed. I don't care about the run. Oh, look at this screaming off the left. You should have run.  That's why I don't pass the transition. I don't know. That's why I don't pass the transition. At least block one person. Skate part of cheese. Oh, Jesus Christ, bro. Skate part of cheese. Oh, my God, bro. You ain't even seen the real glitch yet. I'm not going to do it to you. What? Come on, goal line, please. Please, come on. Oh, you have defense for that? Do I? Do I? Do I? Have you seen the new quarterback streak? No, I haven't seen none of that.  You know, you scumbags. Automatic. You just got to flip and then this one. You'll see. I don't know how someone found this, but he guaranteed to fall forward. This game. This game is. Who found the movement? Found that one. I was trying to bluff to see if I could run later on. I was shook. This game is. Vince Young ain't never fumbled like that in his life. He knows something. He lost already. You know what I'm saying? Lost. You realize you've only stopped me because of fumbles the last two times in a place? I'm done, dude. Now listen. Bro, both are in his goal lines. I'm never in goal line again. Goal line fullback dive. You got a goal line type. You were a slide type. Now listen. Oh, you in this? Oh, Lord, you won't have a long day. Really? I haven't. Come on, bro. I haven't adjusted when no one else has. Keep going. He threw a pick, too. No, I didn't. I got stuck. You know, I'm old school. Like you, we go get the football. You saw all these kids whining about, I can't catch picks because they don't have no stick. Facts. For real. They're really getting lost because they have no stick. They grew up in the whole wire. See, probably not going to give me no bomb. I don't think he might. Don't do it. Nah, this guy's glitchy, bro. His name's Ed Herit. God. He's just like lofted that. Did he not? Boom. You released them 10 seconds too late. You take him a lot of chances. I see you a chance taker. He's a little kid. He's a chance taker. He's a chance taker. Good play. Good play. How'd you know? That was a question I had made. That was my first read of it. I didn't know. I thought maybe you seen something last play. I saw that you double-flatted and then you double-flatted and you had no deep coverage. Just don't go in goal line. You know that. I don't know. I'm double goal line. You definitely got goal line defense. I don't know. Go back to our defense. Ends quarterback. No, yeah. Oh, yeah. That should do it. There's only one play left to go. I thought I was bluffing when I said, when I said come out goal line, was not bluffing. Wait, really? Tackles. Make tackles. That's the two. Oh, come here. Who's the best back that you use? Roger Bush. Oh, McCaffrey's the best, but he's just like way too slow now. Oh, he's not. He's just way too slow now. That could be the best. I'm just saying like moves. He moves. He moves. He's slow. We got to get 7 chat. I ain't going to lie to you. I mean, can I get the football? My man is no huddling. Want the ball? Yes, I want the football. It's sad how terrible this is. I'm telling you, the mobile quarterback gives them a chance to pass. It gives them a chance. It's how it's always been. Kill them when they get extended through November. It's the same way Madden's been for years. I agree. I'm burning them. Nah, you want to run. You want to have a chance. Thick. Just mobile quarterback, bro. He can't find a soul open. Vince kind of fast, you think?  Undefeated. Take it to the half.  God damn. He don't make no hot routes. How do you play all day make no hot routes? He just come out and say this. I put an out route out there. What else do you want? I'm going to say this play good enough. Oh my God. I didn't want to call it. It is. Your golf side is one of them. What are we really talking about?  Okay, so that.  Okay, but I didn't ask you to go offside. I mean, you're right. I'm sorry. I apologize for that. I just felt like. There's a fumble coming my way. I felt like I was old. I felt like I was old. What? You just flicking your antelope? I know this guy. Trust me. I know this guy. You got to catch that. Got my hands on the football. You sound like them 12 year olds. I play mad. I dropped so many picks. It's really going to be. Damn. Let's go. Put them on ticked up. Imagine. See me with Kettle. He won't fumble. He won't fumble. And when I return it. Oh my God. What happened to the over G? You over the over G? Can't get consistent pressure. If I could get some. If I knew if I send six. I would get someone there. I would do it. I'd be sending six and all six run into five people. It's just depressing. Everything's open. Running back rocks are the best. Let's try the best running back rocks I've ever been. You got a whole D guard running back. Through dance. I'm going to say a game. Come on. Don't do that. Come on. Here we go boys. Buckle up. Welcome to Pound Time. You're sick. Come on. Come on. Just keep getting ran. Okay. Now you're going to call a pass. We don't want to call a pass. See. I don't want to. Trust. I don't. Good defense. That's got to be a sack man. Oh man. Oh. I had that open back. The back plays and it didn't throw. You got defense on four? Dubster? No. No. No. If you call this. I definitely have no defense. I mean why do we not match to that? What the f**k was that? What the f**k? It wasn't an out round because you didn't f**k. It was. No it wasn't. No it was some s**t. Oh my god chat.  That's a f**king sim dot right there boys. Bro that's a dotty special. It was. Now do that cute a** drunk a**. I know you're not bluffing me. You got to have stick work. Oh. Dude. Where's my eyes chat? Where's my eyes? This is bad. F**king football man no huddle. Oh this is for your life right here. You know you lose if you don't get this. You know you lose if you don't get this. That's not true. What? Oh my god. Just one off like one hot rod.   I'm having fun. It's AIDS. I was going to try for the first time on you but I'm not going to do it. No no that ain't it. They did that s**t. They're doing that s**t with escape artists now. They said they patched it. That s**t is not patched. This is unguardable. This is unguardable. This is getting so fast. This is a real unguardable. I'm going to lie to you. Still it chat. Still it chat. Do not still it chat. I was throwing a pick. I was throwing a button. He was throwing a pick. No I pressed the button so I was going to. Pick. Oh I love that animation. I'm glad they added the high five animation. Imagine. There's nothing better than your defensive back high five. No no no I know I wasn't.  Then hit me. Don't go for a pick. Then go for a pick and hit me. Bro. You went for a pick. Okay because they let you do that in this game. I'm not saying they do but I mean you ain't tried so you went for a pick. So you want to go for a pick and hit me at the same animation. I want to go for a pick exactly. Not put my hand up to give you the football high five. Throw that. Ed Reid is going to pick it. Throw it. That's Edward. That's Ed. That's Edward. Edward's got it. I can't believe he got there. Yo he's actually got it. Good play. That's a score. That's 14. I've got to go for two here bro. I've got to go for two. Not even a little bit. Winnable. It's winnable all right. Can I stop Reggie Bush out of the backfield. That's the question of the day. Great question by the way. We'll see. He's going to run but we're going to stop the run. I mean god. Bro how are we just getting f**king mauled man.  Like who is getting mauled on my team. Who the f**k do I got to buy to stop f**king all in. Bro like what player do I need. Derek Thomas. Straight in. Jesus. Get the limit. Get the limited Devin White bro. Is that his name. Sad bro. This is f**king sad dude. Three down linemen. That's why.  How about that. Go over there. Go to twist that TV problem right bro. He'll talk three down linemen. That's f**king why. Who's that bro. He on his way over there. He on his way over there. He on his way over there. Come on baby. Come home. Listen we're going to talk about. We're going to talk about soft friends. Because he's in it all day. Three down linemen. It's not a soft front. It's five. It's five two pretty much. He said five two. As he has his middle linebacker standing above the tight end. No I don't. I'm right at the f**king A gap. What are you talking about. Yeah exactly. I'm right here. It's five one at least. Soft front. Nah I lost this game throwing a pick. And because of flat zone one cover. What you call timeout. Why would I not. I played that perfectly. I got a shot now. I know but you're just supposed to let it go. So I don't have to do nothing crazy. No. Now you got to do something. You want to do something. You want to punt. Okay. RG told me. I don't know why I know these guys have a go for the pump block. And guess what I'm about to do right now. I swear to God you blocked my punt. And I lose. Man. Here we go. Here we go. I don't know what I'll do. This dude man. Do not want it. He do not want it right now. Oh here it is. Just go out of bounds. Give me a shot. No no no no. Flag. Thank you. Ruffing. Ruffing. Ruffing. Life. I've seen worse situations. And a man like Proud don't run three deep. He's a Sen five right here type of guy. It's how you. No no no. Not me. Are you.  This is the old probably Sen five. Wow. Back them up. The old probably Sen five of these dudes. Okay. All right. I should do the L.T. Pick. He's so. You'll send a game bro. I'm searching. No. Searching bro. Send a game. No. You want to drop down some reward search. Come on. I don't got. We can leave bro. Search then. This is all man. This is all man. Yeah. They said something about zones be playing a little bit better. Or is that just people just thinking that. Hey. You click off on all that and down. I'll hit you. Come on. This bro like fumble. That runs done. That runs done. Here we go. It's just progress. That runs done. Is it. Now he goes inside zone now because he said like damn. He really got that box. I mean it does look box better this game. I don't know. Tackles tackles. Jack tackles. Mine. Thank you. Oh my god. What am I doing. I mean who is that superhero bro. Oh my god. Video game. What do you want me to do. Like. Holy. Why is that my animation ever. It's the same lurk. Hey do you think tote happens too good in this game. You think it's just good words. It's wherever it should be. I mean he should catch that right. I heard some people make. No no no no no. I'm talking about just like every receiver. Every. That just seems like they're in every time. I feel like. Unless it's a bad throw. I don't think it's too good. I was just asking because I just see people bring that up. I feel like maybe a route runner should be better at this. But I always make sure like I like make sure he doesn't stand there. I make sure I swerve him. So he catches it on time and doesn't get you know bad animation. Yeah. I mean like yeah. People. It should be easier with like an Antonio route runner than like a big physical player maybe. Yeah. I might have a cam here. We might have to get you might have to run in the can. He ran with him. I clicked off like he was going to run. Shit boys. So your roster is different. So he got fumble with the no huddling. See like you don't think you should ever be able to hit right there. But you know you're never going to trigger something though right. Possession catch been OP for a while now. I know but I'm saying though like that's why like some of the catches are just I don't know they're rough. How does how does Dawkins getting railed right now. Fumble. Let's go. Straight hand. Good play. No huddles. He no huddles. He no huddles. I want to talk it over. I want to talk it over. Oh my God. Jamal Adams. Let's go man. Bro. I swear to God. My account is glitched. Like problem gets 15 yards on it. Good. I gotta stay there. He's going to put the ball. He's going to put the ball now. He's going to put the ball now. He's going to put the ball now. Way man. Fourth and 10. You're just running back. I really just didn't think he'd be able to. Lord Jesus bro. And bounce. Let's go. Come on man. No. You're smarter than that. What's the point? No. What was the point of that throw? You ain't getting nothing from that. This is closer. What you doing? I didn't think I was going to get tackled. God. Oh my God. That was a good dive by the hop. It was a good tackle by the hop. I mean how in the world does he walk right through my line like this? I gotta get there bro. All right. That just has to be me. No way man. You riskier. Why do you have the game? Deep and elite. Deep and elite. Deep and elite. That's why we have it. That's why we have it. Deep and elite. Fuckings is terrible. Deep and elite. He's in a deep half. You caught that. Yo, Dawkins should get a raise. He should get a raise for being in a deep half. Brian Dawkins just can't get that up. I ain't going to watch it. It's like what y'all got. Deep and elite. There go Dawkins right there. He plays good on my team. On Revis. I think you threw that guy. Come on Revis. Oh bad bro. Yeah we got seven minutes. We get a touchdown here. We straight promise you. He's giving us a touchdown too by the way. No touchdown. No touchdown right here. Bumble. Oh my God. He caught that good for you. Bumble. I know. I'm literally bad for that. I got one more before I got to finish what's it go. Say no mo. One mo. GGs. GGs. Last one and then we finished Weekend League. We tried different runs. Look at him. He's. No, I really don't know how I was in that to start Weekend League for over but I wasn't tripping though because I mean that's still a good play with it. I like so. He's just running into each other. Am I double cheeked up or no? No they spamming. I'm telling you. They're spamming that chat. I'm telling you. He runs.  I'm telling you he's going to fumble again. Don't worry. Ain't nobody open. He's just running. It's cool though. Devin White. Ain't no way he catches that. You know what you're not coming out in right here. You know what you're not coming out in right here. Come on every. Oh. Devin White. I got to buy the real Devin White. That's all I learned. That's all I learned tonight. I got to buy the real deal. Are we really going for two right? No.  Oh my. Get the. Bro your. You're actually scum. I should have thrown it.   I really thought like you'd be fat. Actually like that about the shoes. Oh yeah. You definitely have stick on all those catches don't do it. But he usually takes a risk of that too. That's how I lose, that's how you be winning. I take every game you win, I take a risk, every game. You got full cam, all the way cam? So you have to get like some collectibles, some daily collectibles. I guess some people were able to get it, but. I got 90 speed cam. Oh, I gotta kill him there. Come on, Reds, you get through that. That's free. Oh, that's free. I'm going for two more. I don't know, Randy was assed there. That's been good for me too. Plus this two point plays. It was automatic and it's automatic. They'll get pressures. God, I'm right, it's automatic. Well, I mean, 3-2-5 wide. He runs first play of a drive like this. Oh, he doesn't. I wonder why they're bumping into it. Are they too fast down? Like, fumble, man. I'm worried about the scramble. I ain't even lurking.  He really got one of the biggest tails for over a. Boom, fumble. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. That formation, don't ask. No, just run out of it. Don't pass out of it. Bang.  No, no. This corner run don't get manned up like that or matched up like that. So go. It's terrible. So Justin Tucker got this? You got seven miles per hour win. That's literally terrible. I smoke that kick too. Kicking way too easy. Bro, what in the world, man? Why am I not getting an animation, baby? You're not there. Get there. It's a dot. No, he caught it too. I can never give it a B. Marsh.  You know, pressure, no defense, no pressure. That's where we get our fumble. Allen's way better than all these mobile quarterbacks. How long is the goat? Hold on, zero, man. Going back in this. Wiggly lines. Reggie Bush went down. I'm scared I'm going to get banned. Bro, how the fuck? Oh, yeah, he smoked that. Damn, we found one too. No, thank you, bro. Can't stop him right now, bro. I'm going to lunch here. Oh, yeah, we like it when we go to man covers. We like that. It's free juice. God, man. Come on, Devin White. Maybe I shouldn't have manned that dude up. I couldn't run the ball, honestly. I don't know. I mean, bro, this one is fast. I can't run the ball. Like, my offense is going to struggle if I'm trying to run this formation. Fuck, it's Vinci I'm doing.  Jesus. Got to get a stop, bro. Can't stop the man right now. I mean, bro, the old team.  That's respected. I'm out this defense so God's fast. I forgot. Good defense. Good defense. Terrible defense, man. Like, he praying right now. He like a shark right now. He just, he know he wait. This is down to prouncing win the game. This is only shot is this last down. That's all he got. That's all he got right now. He's going to leave him. He know this is the only shot right here. What? What? Oh, that's a read, bro. Superstar. That's a superstar. You like that match up? Did you like that? Yes, bro. Henry's the best of me. He don't need to. No, he is the best. I just saw a step. I had to take it. I can't lie. I was a little, I was like, let's see what happens. He brings a seven right here. Maybe not. That's free. What's wrong with her? Tackles, tackles. Hurry up.  GGs. GGs. GGs, bro. All right, my guy. Be safe. GGs. GGs. Yes, sir, yes, sir. GGs, my guy. We'll play again soon. Yep. GGs, yes, sir.


So the conspiracy theory of everything was banned by YouTube for a second time earlier this year. At long last, the hammer falls. This was one of our most popular videos by far, as it's clear so many of us are not afraid of shining a light on the truth behind the dark and gritty underbelly of society. Yet, it's important to remember that the reason for such darkness is so that when the light of truth triumphs, it is all that much more glorious. It was our hope that from this documentary, viewers would be compelled to awaken to the truth of their innermost nature and embrace a greater understanding and experience of reality. When each of us do this, we help move all of humanity forward to that future we dream of, living in peace, wisdom and harmony. People are tired of being fed stories about the way things are and how the world works, especially when such stories are often so veiled in misleading intentions. There are so many seeking to take advantage of each other today and it's crushing to the human spirit when that happens. It's no wonder so many have a hard time trusting one another, but without trust, the bonds of society break down. Certainly, while many of our social systems need transformation, to lose everything would not be so good. But regarding this conspiracy doc, we had a few videos get taken down this year and when this one was removed, it brought us very close to losing our channel. Upon consideration of this, we reflected that for us, the most important thing has always been to share wisdom, truth and a more enlightened way of seeing the world with anyone who is willing to receive it and generally speaking, in a more lighthearted way. For this reason, we've decided that for now, we won't attempt to re-upload the conspiracy theory of everything for a third time on this channel. However, for those still curious to see it, we do have a private link available in the description below where anyone can watch it for free. Just be warned, it's intense. With that, thank you for your time here today and much love.


Hey y'all, welcome to what Chelsea eats. Thank you so much for joining me today I am going to show you how to make this butternut squash and white bean soup.  Not that there's anything wrong with salad. Y'all know it's important to eat your salads But this is good for those days when you just want something warm on a cold winter day So if you want to see how I make it stay tuned Now let us talk about the ingredients first. You're gonna add one to two cans of Navy beans or white beans or great northern beans or cannellini beans They're all the same in the stores. You will see them packaged differently and named differently But really they are all the same Next is a butternut squash This one is about a pound and a half. You can use more if you would like now for the herbs and spices First we start with crushed red pepper to taste about two teaspoons of thyme two not chicken bullion cubes and Black pepper to taste Next we're gonna talk about the vegetables. We're gonna add to the soup This is about three ounces of mushrooms. You can use whatever kind of mushrooms you would like next we have two medium to large leeks and Last but not least we have five cups of water We're gonna start by cutting our leeks first You got to start by cutting the ends off of the leeks But one thing about leeks is they get extremely dirty and also you don't want to use the top part That is discarded. So the only part of the leeks that you're gonna use are these two small little Parts and you're gonna cut them down the middle and Then what we're gonna do is take them over to the sink and wash them really really good because Sand gets in between the leaves of the leeks and you don't want to eat sand So you see how I'm like moving the leaves out of the way and just kind of letting the water get down in each one of the Leaves That's what you have to do to get the leeks clean Because they will have dirt on dirt in them. I can't stress it enough. You will have dirt in your food Literally, I mean if you would like to eat dirt, you know, that's one thing But I don't want dirt in my food. So really take care to wash them thoroughly So once you're done washing your leeks, what you're gonna do is Slice them thinly or you can do big chunks, but I like to do mine in thin ribbon-like slices And you'll cut them up and next we're going to work on the butternut squash Lots of people have trouble with butternut squashes And I must admit that when I first started to learn how to cook butternut squash I had a hard time getting the Skin off because I didn't understand how to cut it Well, it's really not all that difficult if you have the right tools first you start with cutting off the ends like you saw me do with the green knife and Then you peel the skin off and this is a Titan peeler. I love this peeler it Is so versatile I use it to peel everything I have other pealers But this one I is my go-to and I'll put a link for this one down below in the subscription box But I do plan on giving this away Not this one, but a Titan peeler away in my giveaway video that is coming up as soon as I can get it recorded and posted y'all I'm trying to keep up with the amount of Work that I have But as if you can see as you can see I'm just easily peeling this skin off with this Titan peeler it's easy to use and I recommend it anybody who is doing a Plant-based lifestyle have this type of a peeler in their kitchen because it's gonna save them a lot of time and heading Now that you have your butternut squash peeled all you want to do is cut it in half like at the bottom of the neck and Split it in half Split that fat part in half Then you want to take a spoon and scoop out the seeds You know some people save these seeds and they plant them in their garden if you do gardening I wish that I had time to do gardening one day. I will because I have so much compost in my Home that would be some good soil for a garden But anyway, I'll keep on dreaming until I have time to do that and then you just start slicing the Butternut squash and I guess that's about a half inch cut But you make the the slices as big as you want them to be the smaller the slice the faster they are going to cook and Just keep in mind. I just want to tell you you have to have a sharp knife When you're cutting butternut squash because you can cut your fingers off You see how difficult it is for me to cut it and my knife is pretty sharp And I probably need to sharpen this knife and the thing about this knife It wasn't an expensive knife set. So you don't have to buy an expensive knife set. You just need to buy a Set that is going to be a good set I don't know how many times I've gone to people's homes to try to cook something and I'm trying to find a knife And I'm like they've got all these beautiful dishes But they don't have a good knife And I'm like you could get a set of knives for like 20 bucks that are really good. That's how much these cost I think it was like 20 bucks for a set of like six of them I also have some expensive knives to but um, like if you see me cooking and you see my stainless steel And black knives those are an expensive set of knives But which knives do you see me cooking with these $20 knives now? It's time to start the cooking process first. We're gonna start with adding some water to this Dutch oven pot. I love cooking with a cast-iron Dutch oven because It heats very well. You can take it from the top of the stove to the oven and it's very very good quality And if you're going to be cooking like this It's important to have good cookware Don't go broke over kitchen equipment. Just add things as you can Next I'm going to be adding the vegetables to the pot. We're going to start with the leeks and then we'll add the mushrooms and Then we'll start to water saute them Stir them around the pot Just so that they can start to sweat down a little bit and a little bit of water that I put in the in the pan and Water sauteing is basically the same thing you do when you use oil You just use water instead of oil Now I'm going to begin to add the spices first is the thyme You can use whatever order you want to use in the pepper the not chicken boy in cubes then the red pepper flakes and then you stir it in to your dish and Let those vegetables take on the flavors of the herbs and spices that we added to the pot Now that that's cooked down a little bit. We're going to add the butternut squash. Isn't that pretty? Now that you've got your butternut squash in the pot All you do is stir the vegetables together so that the flavors from the herbs and spices Start to marinate with the butternut squash And you just continue to stir for about a minute and then we're going to add our next ingredient Which is our navy beans You just want to continue to stir the Navy beans with the vegetable mixture just so the herbs and spices can Melt together and next we're going to add our water and This is filtered water that I'm adding to the pot and it's about five cups of water you can add more or less I found that five cups was a perfect amount of water to add to this dish and what you're going to do is stir it around and You're going to turn up the heat so that This can come to a boil Also will be a good idea to put the lid on the pot so that the water doesn't evaporate from the soup and so that the Soup can come to a boil a lot faster It took about five or six minutes for this to come to a boil now that it's at a boil rolling boil as you can see We're going to turn that down to a simmer and let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until your Butternut squash is as tender as you would like it to be It's been about 15 minutes and the soup is perfect It is perfectly done. It's time to serve it and it was quick and easy to make I Wish I had smell of vision because it smells really really good And I cannot wait to make this soup again because it is one of those soups that is Just perfect for a cold winter day I think I would make this in the summer as well because it's a It's a brothy soup and As you can see I'm doing a taste test to see if all the spices are perfect and I'm telling you I did not have to put one other herb or spice in the soup It was absolutely perfect. So there you have it ladies and gentlemen Butternut squash and white bean soup All of the details for this recipe and the tools I used will be listed below in the description box If you liked this video, please give it a thumbs up share it with a friend and don't forget to subscribe Thanks so much for watching and until next time y'all take care. Love y'all


A very good evening aspirants welcome to the Hindi newspaper analysis brought to you by Shankarai's academy. Today's date is 10th of February 2022 so these are the list of news articles chosen for today's discussion. Firstly we will be discussing about text and context page article. Secondly we will be discussing about MRNA vaccine. And thirdly we will be seeing an important article about a scheme. And finally we will end our discussion by discussing about an important article regarding nuclear fusion. So now let us move on to the first news article discussion. This discussion is based on this text and context article which is about the new central media accreditation guidelines. Day before yesterday that is on 8th of February 2022 we briefly saw about the guidelines and its important provisions from prelims perspective. Today this article list out the concerns associated with it. So we will look into the guidelines from the mains perspective by seeing the concerns. The syllabus relevant to this article is highlighted here for your reference please go through it. See basically the guidelines are a new policy on accreditation of journalist. The accreditation facilitates the journalist or media representatives to access information from the government sources. So the new policy is for accreditation of journalist. Note that this accreditation is also called as the PIB accreditation that is Press Information Bureau accreditation. Because PIB is the one that provides this accreditation at the headquarters as you know PIB functions under the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting. It is the nodal agency of the government of India to disseminate information to the print and electronic media. The information is regarding the government policies, programs, initiatives and achievements. Now why this accreditation is important? See this accreditation is important for journalist because it allows access to government offices in Delhi. It enables them to cover some events attended by the Prime Minister and the President. They also can access the media workroom and the PIB library at Delhi's National Media Center if they have this accreditation. Now you might have a doubt why this policy is an issue now. See previously also there were guidelines on who should be provided accreditation. It was the 2013 guidelines. Now the new 2022 guidelines have many updates and changes. One of the major changes about the withdrawal or suspension of accreditation. Now this provision has raised many concerns. See previous guidelines also provided for withdrawal or suspension of accreditation but in a general sense. It mentioned that accreditation shall be withdrawn as soon as the conditions on which it was given cease to exist. That is for getting accreditation the journalist has to meet certain criteria. For example a working journalist should be employed full time in a news organization. So if that working journalist becomes part time employee then the accreditation will be withdrawn. Secondly the accreditation is also liable to be withdrawn or even suspended for a particular time if it was found that the accreditation was misused. Here also note that there is no particular mention of when the accreditation will be considered as misuse. So these 2 cases were the instances when the accreditation would be withdrawn or suspended before. But now the guidelines list 10 conditions or instances when the accreditation would be withdrawn or suspended. It includes conditions like using accreditation for non journalistic activities. If the person has been charged with a serious cognisable offenses like that there are some 10 conditions or instances. See among these the contentious condition is the condition hutch. It mentions that the accreditation of journalist would be withdrawn or suspended if the journalist acts in a manner prejudicial to the sovereignty and integrity of India, prejudicial to the security of the state or prejudicial to the friendly relations with foreign states. It can also be withdrawal or suspension if the journalist acts in a manner prejudicial to the public order, decency or morality or when the journalist is in contempt of court. Plus it will also be withdrawn or suspended if the journalist act in manner of defamation or incitement to an offense. Now the moment you hear these terminologies you would have thought that I have seen these same wording somewhere else. Yes you are right these instances are mentioned in article 19 2 of Indian constitution. Mainly these are the reasons mentioned for imposing reasonable restrictions on the right to freedom of speech and expression. But do not forget that the same article 19 under its clause 1 provides the freedom of press as a fundamental right under the right to freedom of speech and expression. But this freedom of press is subjected to the reasonable restrictions note this also so we can say that article 19 clause 2 which prescribes the restrictions to free speech guaranteed to every citizen of the country is also used to serve as guidelines for the press and media curtailing free press. So far we saw about what is accreditation and then we compared it with the previous guidelines on the 2022 guidelines. Now we will see the other cause of concern. First because these conditions regarding the sovereignty and integrity of India etc they serve a censorship rule rather than guidelines. Why because these terminologies like prejudicial to the sovereignty and integrity of India, security of the state etc can be subjective that is they can be decided as being prejudicial to the sovereignty and integrity of India depending on one's personal feelings and perception. Therefore now the reports of the media which criticizes the government could even be seen as a prejudicial to the interest of the country. This will enable to withdraw the accreditation of the concerned journalist. Due to this the journalist will be forced to be not to be critical of the government that is why it becomes a threat in the way of the functioning of a free media. First point to be noted and this is the reason the article mentions the guidelines more proscribing in nature than prescribing. Proscribing means prohibiting but note that the policy is silent on who will decide if a journalist conducts violates any of these conditions. Secondly even the genuine reports of the media could be delegitimized saying that they are prejudicial to the interest of the country. Now the third concern is the defamation as a ground for cancellation of accreditation. Generally journalists are the ones that expose wrongdoing by public officials, politicians, big businessmen, corporate groups or other people in power. So to stop such information from coming out these people in power resort to defamation cases against journalists and media platforms and now unfortunately defamation is also one of the provisions that can lead to cancellation of accreditation. So this will provide the people in power more opportunity to intimidate the journalist. This is the third concern. Further whether a report is defamatory or not depends on the interpretation and discretion of the body that will decide on this matter. If their interpretation suggests that a report is defamatory they can easily deny accreditation to a journalist. I hope by hearing all these concerns you'll be feeling these concerns are logical. It is worrying also because already India does not hold a good position in the World Press Freedom Index that is WPFI. WPFI ranks the countries based on the freedom available to the press that is to the journalist. It is compiled and published by Reporters Without Borders RSF which is a Paris based international non-profit, non-governmental organization. Just to know remember it ranked 180 countries in 2021 WPFI and India was at 142nd position. Here rank 1 is the highest rank so India was placed in the lowest position. The index also criticized India by stating that India is one of the world's most dangerous countries for journalists who is trying to do their job properly because journalists are exposed to every kind of attack including police violence against reporters, ambushes by political activists and reprisals instigated by criminal groups or corrupt local officials. So on those lines now the guidelines provide further opportunity for the government to punish the journalist who are just trying to do their job. So these are all the important facts or points that you have to make note of from this text and context page. In this article discussion we saw about accreditation of journalists. We saw why it is important and then we compared the 2013 guidelines and 2022 guidelines. We saw some of the concerns in the guidelines. So with these learnt points now let us move on to the next news article discussion. See this news article here it says that the India's first homegrown vaccine is likely to be released before April. Apart from this the news article also says that the data from human trials are likely to be presented for evaluation before authorities. Which vaccine are we talking about? It is nothing but the mRNA vaccine which is being developed by Pune based Geneva Biopharmacuticals which is currently in phase 213 trials. As you know this trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of the candidate vaccine. Know that around 4000 volunteers had been recruited for the trial. See this is not the only mRNA vaccine there are other vaccines also. But a limitation of these mRNA vaccines or those made by Pfizer and Moderna was that they are required to be stored in sub zero conditions. But the Geneva vaccine can be stored in ordinary refrigerators. This is one added advantage. Apart from this it is said that the mRNA vaccine can be changed to be effective against new variants. But so far the Geneva vaccine is customized to the original SARS-CoV-2. So this is the crux of the article given here. In this backdrop let us learn about mRNA vaccine and how it works. First let us see what is this mRNA vaccine. See we all know that vaccines help prepare the body to fight foreign invaders especially pathogens such as bacteria or viruses to prevent infection. All vaccines introduce a harmless piece of a particular bacteria or virus into the body which triggers an immune response. So this is how a vaccine works and most vaccines contain a weakened or dead bacteria or virus. However scientists have developed a new type of vaccine that uses a molecule called messenger RNA rather than part of an usual bacteria or virus. This new type of vaccine is known as mRNA vaccine as simple as that. See this messenger RNA is a type of RNA that is necessary for protein production. As the name itself hints as messenger RNA it just gives the message to how to produce proteins. Have this basic understanding. Now you might have a doubt from where the messenger RNA gets its information. See in a cell mRNA uses the information in gene to create a blueprint for making proteins. So once cells finish making a protein they quickly break down the mRNA. So in simple words the messenger RNA vaccines teach our cells how to make a protein that will trigger an immune response inside our body. To have a better understanding let me explain how does it actually works step by step. Firstly the mRNA vaccine all given in the upper arm muscle. By this the mRNA will enter the muscle cells and instruct the cells machinery to produce a harmless piece of spike protein. That is the mRNA which is injected through the mRNA vaccine gives the information or instructs the cell to produce a harmless piece of spike protein.  These bumps are known as spike proteins. You can see that from the image given here. These spiked proteins are what give the viruses their name. Under the microscope these spikes can appear like a fringe or crown and interestingly in Latin corona means crown and also remember spike proteins play an important role in how these viruses infect their host. I hope now you can understand what a spike protein means. Now coming back to how the vaccine works see after a harmless spike protein is made our cells break down the mRNA and removes it. This is the first step. Nextly the cells display the spike protein piece on their surface. Now the immune system recognizes that the protein does not belong there. This triggers the immune system to produce antibodies and activate other immune cells to fight off what it thinks is an infection. This is what the body might do to fight off the infection if you got sick with COVID-19. And finally the body have now learned how to protect against future infection from the virus that causes COVID-19. So far we discussed how a vaccine works and we saw what is the mRNA and we saw what is the mRNA vaccine and then we saw how it works. Now talking about benefits of COVID-19 mRNA vaccine see like all vaccines the vaccinated people gain the protection without getting sick with COVID-19. This is the first important point that have to note. Apart from this note that mRNA vaccine or being tested for other infectious agents like Ebola Zika virus and influenza the mRNA vaccine technology also is being tested as a treatment for cancer. See cancerous cells they create unique piece of protein that are not found on healthy cells. A vaccine that produces those pieces can educate the immune system to attack those cells. Apart from this progress was reported with melanoma as well. Theoretically mRNA technology also could produce proteins missing in certain diseases like cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia or diabetes. So that's all about the article. In this discussion we saw about vaccine specifically we saw about mRNA vaccine and the mechanism of how it works and finally we saw some of the significance of mRNA vaccine. So with these take away points now let us move on to the next news article discussion. Now have a look at this news article here. It says that the Union Minister for Women and Child Development Smithy Rani said that the number of beneficiaries who enrolled for the maternity benefit program exceeded the government's target of 51.7 lakh per year in each of the last three years. According to the article the minister said this in the Rajesh Abha in response to a question from Tirnaumul Congress member. See the maternity benefit program called the Pradhan Mantri Mantru Vandana Yojana PMM VY has been criticized for under funding and failing to cater to all targeted beneficiaries. So this is the crux of the news article given here. See let us not get deep into the issue but instead let us take this as an opportunity and learn about the scheme Pradhan Mantri Mantru Vandana Yojana. We will also see some of its objectives. See under nutrition continues to adversely affect majority of women in India. Every third woman is undernourished and every second woman is anemic and undernourished mother almost inevitably gives birth to a low birth weight baby right. Owing to economic and social distress many women continue to work to earn a living for their family right up to the last days of their pregnancy. Furthermore they resume working soon after childbirth as well. Even though their body might not permit it they resume their work soon after childbirth thus preventing their bodies from fully recovering on one hand and also impeding their ability to exclusively breastfeed their young infant in the first six months. So considering all these situations to change them Pradhan Mantri Mantru Vandana Yojana was introduced in 2017 by the Ministry of Women and Child Development. Remember this scheme is a conditional cash transfer scheme meaning the cash will be directly provided to the household only if they satisfy specific conditions mentioned in the scheme. Now who are the beneficiaries of the scheme? See the targeted beneficiaries include all pregnant women and lactating mothers excluding the ones who are in regular employment with the central or state government or public sector undertakings or those who are in receipt of similar benefits under any law. So it includes all pregnant women and lactating mothers. Apart from this all eligible pregnant women and lactating mothers who have their pregnancy on or after 1st of January 2017 for the first child in the family is eligible for the scheme. Now let us see about the incentive. See the scheme offers cash incentive of rupees 5000 and this cash incentive is provided to pregnant women and lactating mothers. The incentive is provided for the first living child of the family for fulfilling the specific maternal and child health conditions. So make note of these points the incentive is provided for the first living child and the condition here is to fulfill the specific maternal and child health conditions. Here this image shows you the dispersal of the incentive in three installments just go through it. So to sum up it is a partial compensation for the wage loss which is a part of a plan to provide a total sum of 6000 rupees on an average to the women. The remaining cash incentive that is rupees 1000 rupees is provided under Janani Suraksha Yojana that is JISY after institutional delivery. Institutional delivery means giving birth to a child in a medical institution under the overall supervision of trained and competent health personnel. So that's all about the scheme. In this article discussion we saw about Pradhan Mantri Madhru Vandana Yojana we saw about its objective we saw about the beneficiaries of the scheme and finally we saw about the incentive given under the scheme. With these learnt points now let us move on to the next news article discussion. Take a look at this article. This article talks about the nuclear fusion process and the effort taken to replicate the process in the scent. So in this context let us learn about nuclear fusion and what happens in the process. Before that why are we learning this? See so far we have been generating electricity only through nuclear fusion process. An alternative to this process is the nuclear fusion process. So let us first understand what is this nuclear fusion process and then we'll learn about some of the applications and uses of nuclear fusion process. See the nuclear fusion occurs when atomic nuclei collide at extremely high temperatures forming a new heavier nucleus and releasing energy in the process. So when atomic nuclei collide each other at extremely higher temperature as a result they form a new heavier nucleus with a release of energy. Here atoms of tritium and deuterium which are nothing but the isotopes of hydrogen 3 and 2 respectively they unite under extreme pressure and temperature to produce a neutron and a helium isotope. Just to recall isotope is nothing but one of two or more forms of a chemical element that have different physical characteristics but the same chemical characteristics. We call them as isotope and the isotope of hydrogen 3 is tritium here and isotope of hydrogen 2 is deuterium. Now for extra information know that deuterium occurs naturally in seawater that is they occur 30 grams per cubic meter in seawater which makes it very abundant relative and talking about tritium they occur naturally only in trace quantities. They are produced by cosmic rays and this radioactive with a half time of around 12 years. Now usable quantities of tritium can be made in a conventional nuclear reactor. So when atoms of this tritium and deuterium unite under extreme pressure and temperature to produce a neutron and helium isotope along with this enormous amount of energy is released which is several times higher than the amount produced from fusion. I hope you are all aware that fission process is only used in the nuclear power reactor. This is because fission can be controlled and fusion cannot be controlled. Let us see why. See a very good example of nuclear fusion is the phenomenon which happens in sun and other stars. See fusion powers the sun and stars as hydrogen atoms fuse together to form helium and matter is converted into energy. Here hydrogen is heated to very high temperature as a result it changes from a gas to a plasma in which the negatively charged electrons are separated from the positively charged atomic nuclei. See normally fusion is not possible because the strongly repulsive electrostatic forces between the positively charged nuclei prevent them from getting close enough together to collide and for fusion to occur. However if the condition allows the nuclei to overcome the electrostatic forces to the extent that they can come within a very close range of each other then the attractive nuclear force which binds protons and neutrons together in atomic nuclei will over weigh the electrostatic repulsive force. See this will allow the nuclei to fuse together. Such conditions can occur when the temperature increases causing the ions to move faster and eventually reach speeds higher enough to bring the ions close enough together. Then the nuclei will fuse causing a release of energy. But the problem here is in the sun massive gravitational force creates the right condition for fusion but on earth they are much harder to achieve especially fusion fuel that is the different isotopes of hydrogen must be heated to extreme temperatures near 250 million degrees Celsius and they must also be kept stable under intense pressure and confined for long period to allow the nuclei to fuse. So here the aim of the controlled fusion research program is to achieve ignition which occurs when enough fusion reactions take place for the process to become self-sustaining. Once ignition is achieved there is net energy yield about four times as much as with nuclear fission. So to put it in simple words if nuclear fusion can be replicated on earth it could provide virtually limitless clean safe and affordable energy to meet the world's energy demand. After knowing the significance the scientist in the uniter kingdom had achieved a new milestone in producing nuclear fusion energy or imitating the way energy is produced in the sun. As per the UK Atomic Energy Authority a team at the joint European Taurus facility that is JET facility near Oxford in central England generator 59 meha joules of sustained energy during an experiment. It is said that a kilogram of fusion fuel contains about 10 million times as much as energy as kilogram of coal oil or gas. Just look at the difference 10 million times of energy is produced with a kilogram of fusion fuel when compared with a kilogram of coal oil or gas. Apart from this know that the energy was produced in a machine called a tokamak a donut shaped apparatus and this experiment used deutrium and tritrium which are isotopes of hydrogen and are heated to temperature 10 times hotter than the center of the sun to create plasma. This was held in place under superconductor electromagnets as it spins around fuses and releases tremendous energy as heat. Now the record and scientific data from these crucial experiments are a major boost for the ITER which is nothing but the larger and more advanced version of joint European Taurus. See the ITER is an international nuclear fusion research and engineering meha project supported by seven members which includes China the European Union India Japan South Korea Russia and US. See make note of these important forums there might be question in preliminary examination. Specifically this ITER it seeks to further demonstrate the scientific and technological feasibility of fusion energy. So that's all about the news article in this news article we saw about what is nuclear fusion and we saw why nuclear fusion cannot be controlled and we saw some of the advantages of nuclear fusion. Finally we ended our discussion by seeing some of the important points mentioned in the news article. With this we came to the end of the news article discussion now let us move on to the next part of the news article discussion which is nothing but the preliminary practice question. Now look at this first question this question is about mRNA vaccines. Consider the following statements regarding the mRNA vaccines. Statement one mRNA vaccines uses a weakened bacteria or virus to trigger immune response. Statement two mRNA injected in the body through vaccine would stay inside the cell forever which of the statements given above is or or correct. Option a one only option b two only option c both one and two option d neither one nor two. See the correct answer for this question is option d neither one nor two because both the statements are incorrect. Now look at this first statement in our discussion we saw that mRNA vaccine is a new type of vaccine that uses a molecule called messenger RNA or mRNA rather than part of an actual bacteria or virus. So the first statement is incorrect. Now look at the second statement this statement is also incorrect because in cell mRNA uses the information in genes to create a blueprint for making protein. Even though mRNA is messenger RNA the information is provided to mRNA by genes to create a blueprint for making proteins. Once cells finish making a protein they quickly break down the mRNA. So they do not stay inside the cell forever which makes the second statement is incorrect. So the correct answer here is option d neither one nor two. Now moving on to the second question this question is about Pradhan Mantri Mathru Vandana Yojana. Statement one the targeted beneficiaries include all pregnant women and lactating mothers including the central and state government employees. Statement two the scheme offers cash incentive to pregnant women and lactating mothers. Which of the statements given above is or correct? Option a one only option b two only option c both one and two and option d neither one nor two. See the correct answer is option b two only because first statement is incorrect in our discussion it's a we saw that the targeted beneficiaries includes all pregnant women and lactating mothers excluding the one who are in regular employment with the central or state government or public sector undertakings right and the pregnant women and lactating mothers those who are in receipt of similar benefits under any law will not be covered under this scheme so the first statement is incorrect. Second statement is actually correct the scheme offers cash incentive of 5000 and it is provided for the first living child of the family for fulfilling the specific maternal and child health conditions in the discussion we saw that this scheme is a conditional cash transfer scheme so the second statement is correct here the correct option is option b two only now moving on look at this third question which of the following statements with reference to nuclear fusion is correct they are asking about nuclear fusion option a nuclear fission produces more energy than nuclear fusion option b the process includes a neutron and helium nuclei and forms two isotopes of hydrogen option c nuclear fusion is happening in the sun and other stars and option d fusion process can be controlled easily than the fission process so i have to find the correct statement from these options c option a is incorrect because in the fusion process net energy yield will be about four times more than the nuclear fission so the statement one is incorrect moving on to option b this option is also incorrect because in nuclear fusion atoms of tritium and deuterium which show nothing but the isotopes of hydrogen unite under extreme pressure and temperature to produce a neutron and helium isotope here the statement is interchanged the process and the byproducts are interchanged so the option b is also incorrect now look at the option c this statement is correct because in our discussion we saw that nuclear fusion is happening in the sun and other stars right so this statement is correct option d is incorrect because in sun massive gravitational forces create the right condition for fusion but on earth they are much harder to achieve fusion must be heated to extreme temperatures near 250 million degrees celsius and they must also be kept stable under intense pressure and confined for long enough to allow the nuclei to fuse this is the reason why fusion process is uncontrollable fission is easily controllable whereas fusion is uncontrollable the option given here is interchanged so the option d is also incorrect the correct option for the question is option c nuclear fusion is happening in the sun and other stars the main question is displayed here please go through it write an answer and post it in the comment section with us we came to the end of the news article discussion if you like the video like comment and share and do subscribe to shankarae's academy youtube channel thank you


This is a big one. We have a fetish with rationality. And don't get me wrong, rationality is a beautiful, wonderful thing. I just finished reading a book called Alchemy by Rory Sutherland and I cannot recommend that higher. It is an incredible read and in it, he talks about this problem that we have where we take something that's so appropriate because honestly, when you think about things like building a plane, engineering a bridge, these kind of things where the world works in a very quantifiable and measurable way when we think about that, we want rationality. We absolutely do. But when it comes to other things like the way that we interact as people, the way that we deal with the world around us, when we try and fit everything into the box of logic, it doesn't work. Take chess for example. Chess is a beautiful game of strategy and rationality but it only works the way that it does because the pieces are limited. The game of chess isn't different if it rains or if there's an earthquake going on. Your pieces can only move in certain directions and so you get to perfectly plan out and think about, okay, well if I do this and my opponent's gonna do that and I need to get nine steps ahead of him and this opens up more opportunities, the world doesn't work like that. Interacting with real people in real situations doesn't work like that. As I was listening to Socrates talk earlier this morning about being a father and planning and preparing for that, it's hard because that's one of the things that we do. We do it with relationships. We do it with parenthood. We do it with our jobs. We think that if I can just quantify what these things are, if I can know that my kid's gonna do A, B, C or D or if I know that the girl that I go talk to is gonna do A, B, C or D, then I know that I can respond this way or I have this line that's gonna work or I can, but it doesn't work like that. We're not limited to these little boxes. We can't quantify these things. There's so many variables that come into this that we can't even understand. And the problem is is that we, again, this is, I love how Sutherland puts this, we think that rationality is the oval office, right? We think that our rational brains are what drives our decisions. Our rational brains are what tell us what to do and we just follow orders. But really what our rational brains are is they're the PR department, okay? We act on instinct.  That may be danger. I'm going to turn around and look and see what, you do it on instinct and then rationally, you're able to justify that, oh yeah, I heard a bang, I turn around and wanted to see what it was. The action preceded the understanding. Rationality is a fantastic tool. It's a great tool to use because we're people that interact with each other and we need to be able to explain why we do things. But when we take rationality as something that rather than being a way to post, like after the fact, describe what an action was, but use it as a tool to try and preempt or pre-create what it is, it doesn't work like that. Yes, it works in very limited environments but it doesn't work in every single one of them and we have a problem where we want rationality to be the king of everything and it's not. The other people around us want us to be objects. They want us to be, that's how they see us. Most people, and we're guilty of the same thing, we see most other people around us as objects. There's something about the idea of we're the heroes in our own story as we should be. But for so much of us, the other players, the other characters who are in our story are just that, they're set pieces, they're just characters, they're just here to be in and be part of it. And we need to recognize that that's the same way that other people perceive us. As you become more of a subject in your life and less of an object, you will have people in your life who resent you for that. They will try and draw you back. They will tell you that you've changed. Ed was talking about this yesterday about how he went to a wedding and then after that he never saw this friend again. Really what happened is Ed ceased to be an object in a life surrounded by other people who were objects. He became a subject. Ed became a man of action. He started doing his own things and it makes objects uncomfortable. Other people want us to be objects. One, because they're more focused on themselves and two, because it makes them, it provides this glaringly stark difference to them of what it is to be a subject versus being an object. People want us to stay as objects because it's a way to rationalize and justify their own desires, their own fears or anything else. Okay, so now that we know that that's a problem, what do we do about it, right? What are the next steps here? Because everything that the world does, everything that we experience now as men wants us to be passive, it wants us to be, it wants us to wait, it wants us to rely on our fear, it wants us to treat risk a certain way, but what do we do to actually start to combat that? So one of the things you'll hear the most often is,


Hello and welcome to DTC revolution with exchange for media. Today we are in conversation with Manish Chaudhary co-founder of Vowskin Science. Hi Manish, how are you doing? Hi, how are you? I'm great. I would like to dive right in. I was researching about your brand and I got to know your I'm 1000 crore revenue by the end of FY26. What is the blueprint in your mind to achieve the same? Yeah, so obviously you need your co-brand to do well and obviously your umbrella brands to fire along with it. So I can't say it's keep it simple, but that's your blueprint towards achieving our interim target of 1000 crores. Okay, and you've already gone global in the US. Over time, I'm sure your brand must have done a lot of R&D about it. What do you think? How different is the Indian consumer from that of the American consumer, especially when it comes to the niche that you cater to? So obviously, different geographies have different consumers. A lot of people think out of India, that's the India diaspora which is buying your products there. It's American, Latin consumers who are buying your products. And do remember that the way how we have presented our packaging, our branding, it has a very international touch and feel.  So there's nothing, the playbook continues to remain the same, though you continue to have different kind of consumers you are reaching out to. There's little or slight changes on formulation in each markets, but just give you a little bit of a notice that they're kind of similar on the consumer trends. Today globally consumers want natural, safe as a starting point and that's something what we are offering to our customers. Okay, great. And there's also rising demand for new age screen kept brands in tier two and tier three cities if we speak specifically to India. Is there a shift that you are noticing too and what kind of dynamic have you seen there? So remember a brand like us which is D2C, we cater to 28,000 pin codes, obviously in those pin codes will be tier two, tier three. Tire two, tier three consumers are those consumers who are starving or have less option of good brands, which can buy online. So you're targeting them. Also, we realize that T2, T3 cities have much more loyalty because of less options at their end. Loyalty is a lot more, more stronger in these cities. Okay, makes sense. And coming back to the American consumer part, can you explain to us that how earlier the brand that you were just telling me how earlier the brand was earning through indirect source and now it's going to be selling directly under the same name. So I would love to know that. Yeah, so we, our previous arrangements was that the revenues were not collected in India, it was different entities serving it. Over the last couple of months, the international business falls into the India entity, so that also increases our revenues over time. So that's our arrangement what we are building into. Okay, understood. And what is your media mix like when it comes to India, specifically to marketing and branding, how much is digital print or H&T? So, I would say that we are just about increasing our ATL budgets, but we predominantly are still very large on online spends as the company. But remember that we have got a large offline business too, which requires a different medium of advertising, which is ATL television, which is also a pretty significant amount of spends at our end. Makes sense. Moving forward to the festive World Cup election, there's a lot of going around in India these days, all the brands are leveraging the most of it during this time in their own way. G20 just got done. How is your brand making the most of the festive World Cup election season that's going on? So obviously, we have had a phenomenal first phase of sales on digital through Flipkart, Amazon. I think we had an exceptional first phase. I think there are another two, three more phases left. Let's see how that goes.  But it's a consumption story where right throughout the year, consumers like it, they'll keep buying it. But though the festive does give you a bump, we are relying completely on e-commerce for our growth this year. So just giving you a little bit, there's nothing which we're doing. Obviously, I'm not too sure whether you've seen our latest campaign on Vitamin C, which we aired. That's running on television as well as on digital, YouTube and other channels. That is something what we are doing. But obviously, we're relying a lot on e-commerce growth at our end from the marketplaces to come from. I'm sure, but you must have seen some kind of jump in the amount of orders that you get during the festive season and how much would that be in case you can give me an idea? So some marketplaces, we saw a growth of around more than 3x than normal BAE, somewhere around 5x. So it's been a pretty interesting first phase. As I told you, there are another two more phases that go so early to say, but the initial has been pretty promising. Okay. Just the last question. One entrepreneurial tip that you would believe that you would have known as a younger self? Tough one for me to think of the fly. I've always believed in fail fast, fix fast, learn fast as a mantra. I continue to believe in that. If you fail, you should really know why you are failing and then try to go and fix it quickly. So it's not a mantra. It's something what I follow. Okay. So that is something you would also tell other young entrepreneurs to follow? I think if you learn to fail fast, fix fast as something that would be important. Without failing, you won't reach where you want to. Well said. And how do you see 2024 for BAE's concerns? So 2024 should be a very interesting year. We've had a year of consolidation last year where we wanted systems, processes, people to come in place but looking at getting a high double digit growth back at our end. We've got an interesting brand called NatureDerma which we just launched, looking at how do we ensure we get growth there. So it's going to be an interesting time at our end. So that's something which is there. Want to do it properly then take any shortcuts but build something which is solid for the future. Great. I think that was short and sweet. We wouldn't keep you long for this. Thank you so much for this delightful conversation and stay tuned to D2C Revolution People. We will be coming up with more co-founders from D2C startups next week. Thank you.


Check it out, we are in the kitchen and we are testing our lung capacity. Mads has made a contraption here that enables us to get an idea of our lung volume. Can you explain the idea? Yeah, it's a 5-liter bottle filled with water and markings all the way with 250 milliliters in between. And we flip it over.  We put it into a bucket with water in it. Then at the bottom there he opens up the cap. The cap is now off. I'm going to show the details here. There's the cap off. The water stays inside obviously. Then what do you do? We have a tube which we will put inside. He is now putting a tube inside without getting it out of the water. So now the idea is, can you explain the idea? Yeah, the point is just that you displace all the water with your lungs, with the air. However much the air is in the bottle when I'm done blowing up all my air, that will be my lung capacity. It's a pretty cool experiment. The only problem is that the bottle is only 5 liters and we both seem to go a little further than that. Our lung capacity is a little greater than 5 liters. So we should have had like a 7-liter bottle to be able to really measure it accurately. But we're doing it anyway and we're trying to estimate how much our lung capacity is. So let's see if I can put this camera somewhere. All right, so what's going to happen now is Matt is going to inhale as much as he is capable of. 5 liters of water straight into the lungs. And then he's going to exhale into the tube, which will, as Matt explained, fill the bottle with air and displace the water. But we're actually going to go beyond the capacity of the bubbles. We'll have to do some estimation. So try to see all the bubbles that come out and try to estimate how much that is. Yeah. Just do it slowly. And remember to push down at the end. That was good. I think you're just above 5 liters basically. That's how it looks. All right, so we refilled the bottle and did everything and I'm going to do another test here. So obviously, as we just saw with Matt's, it doesn't really tell us exactly our lung capacity, which is pretty annoying. We need a bigger bottle to do that. But at least we know it's greater than 5 liters, but I haven't actually looked up what's the typical average lung capacity. Here's a quick little snippet from an old book by Jack Daniels and some other people. So if a person were to breathe in as deeply as possible and then measure the amount of air that could be forcibly exhaled, the volume measured would be that individual's vital capacity. That's what it's called. It could be considered the greatest tidal volume possible. It varies a great deal with body size, sex, and age, and it could range from about 3 liters in a small person to over 6 liters in a larger individual. Blah, blah, blah. So if that's the case, I guess having a larger than 5 liter vital capacity is pretty good. Yeah, at least not bad for our size and yours. The water is extremely cold. Okay, so we calculated it. It's actually, all the water in this bottle is actually 5 liters and 400 milliliters. Yeah, 5.4 liters. And we both got all that out, and you got maybe, if I were to estimate, as much as 200 milliliters more than that. Yeah, so basically we both have a very large long volume. I don't know. Yeah, no, definitely. We would have to see averages across a lot. Not if 6 liters is a large individual. Yeah, but that's one source. Yeah, but I think that's pretty true though, still. Just bear in mind though that as a runner, having a large long volume, it's not necessarily important. Long volume is not a limiting factor usually when it comes to endurance performance. It's not, unless you have a very small lung volume, you typically just ventilate more. You just breathe more if you have a slightly smaller lung. So it's typically not a limiting factor, but it is nice to know that I have pretty large lungs. Anything else? No, this is Matt's laboratory, by the way. Check it out. He has a lab here in the kitchen where he does different experiments. Yeah, he is weird. He is indeed weird in the cool way. All right, thanks for watching. Bye.


OK, so let's try this problem here. It says to convert the following structures into molecular formulas. And it gives you these three compounds here. The first one is the active ingredient in aspirin, acetylsilic acid. And then the second one here is the active ingredient in Tylenol, acetaminophen. And then this third one here is the elicit narcotic cocaine. So they're all kind of have amalgysic properties. So whenever you're trying to determine from the structure to the molecular formula, the way I like to do it first is to count the carbons. So like we've been doing, it goes C, H, and then in alphabetical order all the heterologues. So since there's only C's, H's, and O's in this one, we're not going to have to worry too much about that alphabetizing. But anyways, so how many carbons do we have? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. OK, so remember that one. A lot of people are going to forget that. 9. Now we'll count the H's. So 1, 2, 3, no H's, no H's, no H's. 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 8, right? And then just the O's. How many O's do we have? 4. 4. All of them are in picture. Remember, all hetero atoms and their hydrogens that are attached to them are always picture. So let's look at a C to benefit now. So first, we're going to count carbons. How many carbons do we have in that? So we've got 6, 7, 8, right? How about hydrogens? You have that yet? 9. 9? OK, so let's see. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. Is that all of them? And then what's next? What atom will we put next? Nitrogen, right? Because that comes with O or hydrogen. And there's only one of them. So that's N. And then O. How many of those? 2. 2 O's. O2. So any questions on the alphabetizing portion? And then let's do this last one. So it's a little more difficult. So I'm going to point out the carbons to you. And you can help me out with some other portions of it. So carbon, let's rip it down first. So what do we have? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17. So did we miss any carbons? Did we miss any of them? I think we got all two. OK, so this is the portion where a lot of people, and sometimes even Professor Ithas, have a problem with counting it. So you've got to make sure you get every one of the little 8x's are at the end of a line. So if I miss any, let me know. So I'll be the one counting them.  So 1, 2, 3, 4, there's only one there. 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 20. Everybody get those? All those sides, too? 21. And then what's next? And just one. And then what? 0, 4, OK? So those are the molecular formulas for acetylsalicylic acid, acetaminophen, and cocaine. OK, are there any questions about doing this? Wonderful. Not too bad. You just got to kind of remember where everything and what everything means with the bond line structures.
