Good morning everybody from a very very snowy mehlen this morning mehlen belgium I am here today as I would like to review this book, which is called peers Inc And it is by the fabulous Robin Chase. She is the founder of zip car now. Why am I choosing to review this today? Okay. Well, first of all and Peers Inc was a book that I studied Pretty heavily for my master's this year around the peer-to-peer economy and it's written by the fantastically witty and Personable Robin Chase, but in particular as well. She is very experienced Because she co-founded zip car, which is a car sharing company and it was founded in the last decade I'll say and then was sold to Avis in 2013 for half a billion dollars So this woman knows what she's talking about the other thing as well And I really liked this about the book is that it is very well researched She has a plethora of academic resources You know conversations that she's had with key people in the industry she talks from the point of view of what she's discovered on Twitter attending conferences and Studying conferences studying papers from conferences, etc. So it's for that reason that I really liked it and Also as well, I will say that it cut it's written from a business person's point of view which I really like and It is written in a very visionary way So what she does is she looks at how would the world be different in the future if we were to take the Peers Inc movement and to progress towards solving issues like climate change for example and Or if we were to look at this from the point of view of the communications industry or the energy industry or the Hospitality industry or so many so many so many others. So it's from that point of view that I really liked it now The next thing of course to talk about is who would be interested in reading it themselves Now the subtitle I'm just going to read you out the subtitle Okay, so it says how people and platforms are reinventing the collaborative economy and Reinventing capitalism. So that is what it's about. So who exactly would be interested in reading this? Well, I think first of all people who are interested in scale Now anybody who has run a business in the past you will know that scale is possibly the biggest issue and The business space it's the biggest challenge that they face And it's also one of the key things that people get into business for So how do you achieve it? How do you achieve scale where the business is making money while you sleep or it can make money independent of you Or where you can get to a point where other people are building it for you And that is precisely what piercing is all about. So if you're interested in scaling and Maybe you don't know how to do it or maybe you can't really get into the mindset of how to do it Or you can't talk to enough people yet who have done it Or you don't have the confidence to do it or you're just wondering how exactly is it done or what sort of mindset? Really needs to be in place before the execution plan could come behind it. This book is for you The other key group of people who I think would be interested in reading piercing are those who want to build platforms from communities and many of you who in fact are fans of this page and Exactly those many of you many many many many many of you that I've worked with over the years who are event organizers Particularly with an interest in doing this. This book is for you as well And it's those as I say those people who want to create Something where you can gather a huge number of people together or even a critical mass a Number a group of people together to achieve something collectively Particularly with a business in mind and this book also is for you So this is what it is as I say it's called peers Inc. It's by Robin Chase now as I hope is becoming apparent from my Facebook lives and book reviews and When I read a book first of all, it takes me a while to do it because I keep stopping and thinking about it And I started reading peers Inc. I would say Last may I started reading it then I remember particularly I was in Malta I was giving a course in Malta and in the evenings. I used to go out and sit on the beach and Take a couple of pages out of peers Inc. and read them and really think about them And I often tweeted elements from it as well And I used to tag Robin Chase who used to respond to me and and give me her point of view So I do really read books and it takes me a long time to do so because as I say I keep stopping and thinking The other thing as well. I want to point out is that I often wait and see how it impacts my own business before telling you about it I don't just want to start giving you a book review saying you should go and read it And then I actually haven't implemented what I've learned from it. So I finished Reading the book last October. I remember I was and again, I had put this up on LinkedIn I was in the tips of more tell and I was there for my brother-in-law's birthday and I that was the last chance that I had then to finish off the book again to stop really think about it Go for a walk at that particular beach a colder one now than Monta I'll admit and and really think about it there So it is now six weeks since then and just looking at the date here in front of me it is now the 11th of December hence the snow in the background here and Now I felt that I really had enough time to digest it and tell you about it And the other thing is of course Why did I choose Belgium to run this Facebook live? There's a couple of reasons for that One is due to the context of the next point So I won't go any further than that and second of all I had a morning here Before I have meetings my next meeting is at around about 2 p.m. Today So I wanted to take out the morning where again I could stop over my cross-ons and coffee this morning and really think about what I was going to tell you about And three it's a place that I spend a lot of time in Thankfully, I've been fortunate to be here in many occasions over the years So I felt it gives me the right context to tell you about the book Okay So what are the three key things that you're going to learn about here in in piercing? So I'm just trying to make sure you see it there from time to time right the first thing and This will have a striking effect on you if it's anything like me Okay, the first thing you will learn is the amount of excess capacity that you have and You might be surprised to that those of you who for example are on this page and you're really busy Maybe you're building a business maybe you're building a family. Maybe you're doing the two together. Maybe you're studying at the same time It's currently coming up to Christmas. There's lots going on and you think okay I actually don't have any time at all And I don't have any spare capacity of anything particularly my mental space right now So it's all nothing that you can say can convince me otherwise Well, I'm not going to try and convince you of anything and what I'm going to try and convince you is what Robin Chase convinced Me and that is that we do actually have a lot of excess capacity around us. So whether it is our time our interests our contacts our Bandwidth on our computer the data on our phone There is actually huge amount of excess capacity right around us And I'm just going to give you a case in point, right? And this is one of the reasons as I told you that I'm I'm speaking to you here live from mehalin Belgium Okay, so I am here Because I want to go to a workshop this evening the staff member of ours is running for vector-vest Europe Okay, so I am over here. I'm going to be shortly going to Bruges. That's where I'm going to tonight Okay, so that's the purpose that I'm here now. I could have flown in This afternoon I could have gone to Bruges stayed in a hotel that I found by googling And then I could have gone home in the morning and that would be that okay And I would have taken up two days in doing so and I probably would have been very productive And I would have achieved what I had set out to achieve including Tasting Belgian chocolate because it's just just what you have to do every time you come here. Well in my opinion anyway So, um, but I didn't okay. I didn't just do that I didn't just do that at all because what I did was the first of all I also took the opportunity to think okay Who else do I need to meet here in Belgium because as I mentioned to become here for a long time meet a lot of People while I am here. There's a lot of opportunity in this fantastic country Okay, there really really is so and so I've done that and that's why I have a meeting this afternoon I have another couple in the morning Before I go back and I also got here yesterday afternoon and got the chance to Call in on a few friends as well to see how they're getting on see the new baby boy, etc Okay Now the other thing that I can do is that I and I've often done this don't have time to do it this Time what I've often checked out for example event bright or I have checked out meeting Sorry meet up calm to see what events are going on because I could of course sit here And I could watch BBC news because I can't understand any other channel That's on the TV since I don't speak Dutch and or else I can get out meet people see what's going on and Create some serendipitous opportunities The other thing that I can do is that I can follow up on contacts that I may have here that I don't know about So for example, I've been in business now over seven years in general My career has spanned at this stage almost 12 years So again, you know, I've built up quite a number of contacts as many of you know I'm not at all afraid to talk to anyone really and From that point of view my LinkedIn my LinkedIn profile has expanded my Facebook one has loved Twitter as many of you also will know So therefore what I can do is check in on those and say okay Well, what sort of serendipitous opportunities could happen if I was just to reach out and to somebody and say do you Want to meet for coffee while I'm here and I've done that again on many occasions I've had some great coffees and dinners and drinks and breakfasts and lunches and all sorts of things with people whom Who may have moved for example from a different city? Somebody that I meet over here quite often is a journalist who's moved from New York And I met her through the Irish international business network in New York when I spoke there one night And now she lives in Belgium and particularly in Brussels and she works for a very large company over here So and she kept in contact with me through my newsletter Somebody else is an event organizer that I've worked with over here when I was an emcee for their event back two years ago and one of the it's a lobby organization here in Belgium and I just kept in contact with her and meet up with her from time to time and again You never know what serendipitous opportunities may arise from that So they're two examples and there's lots more in the various different countries that I travel around to and if you don't know Right, if you think okay, who exactly could I meet because I don't know anybody let's say I looked at my belt my LinkedIn profile. I don't know anybody in Belgium I'm going to be in Belgium next week for business and who could I meet while I'm there? Well, just think about well, who have you got in common? Okay, or what characteristics have you got in common? so One superb website that I always check out before I come out here for example is at European Movement Ireland So it's an organization at home in Ireland and that is looking at the future of Europe and how our Relationship with Europe is developing and how Europe as a whole is developing It has great connections here in Brussels and often runs events here another one would be the Irish and Belgium business Association I BB yes often check out their pages as well And they hold a number of events here throughout the year and I often try and check in with those so You might say okay. Well, aren't they just events again? You see yes What I've thought about the characteristics that I would have in common with the people who go so for example in the case of European Movement Ireland. I'm fascinated by Brexit. I'm fascinated by the future of Europe I see a huge amount of opportunity for our company in Europe in the months years and decades ahead So therefore it is a particular interest of mine When it comes to IBBA, I am an Irish person. I have an Irish business I have an interest in doing business in Belgium therefore again my characteristics align with those So that is what I would say is just have a look around see what associations you could pick up with And it would be impossible to mention being in Belgium and not mention the European Commission the European Commission website has an events calendar on it that just has like Countless plethora amount. Sorry. They're those two words won't go together a plethora of our countless number of events taking place around the commission and I across every different sector geography regulation asset class Technology you name it I could be entertained for months If I wanted to hear in Belgium as somebody who is an economist and speaker and who is constantly looking for Ways of which the future is evolving. So um, I could of course be doing that Now here's something else that I wanted to mention to you and this ties right in with piercing and that is that um I always use booking.com to book my accommodation Secondly, I always try to as in so far as possible. I always stay in the bnb The reason I do that is I get to talk to the people who actually run the bnb And therefore I often get some insight track on how the economy is performing or Why how they're particularly generating their business their interaction with booking.com etc. So I get this Deep insight into the local area when I stay in a bnb So that's another opportunity that I use here in Belgium And that's why I stopped staying in hotels and started moving into into bnb's and I can observe what's going on around me And particularly I go shopping here not clothes shopping Don't do that very often. I have to say that's not my greatest strength now at all But I actually go food shopping And I walk around the supermarkets and I watch the brands that are on the shelves And I look at the way in which people buy and I look at the technology The people are using to buy them and I look at the checkout in the process that they have there And I simply observe the way they do things and I then that feeds into how I look at for example the fast moving Consumer goods the FMCG sector when I'm speaking about that or when I'm going to the airport Shiphol airport in in Amsterdam Is one of the most forward-looking airports that I've ever seen and I see a lot of their ideas have now been implemented in Dublin airport So that's what I also use these trips for And the the other thing is of course that I can contextualize where I am on facebook and on twitter and so many others Now, they're just a tiny selection of ideas in how I can turn My excess capacity here in Belgium into something that's valuable from the business point of view and that's what piercing teaches you It shows you it just shows you the individual pieces of your day of your hour of your skill set of your Contacts of your network that can be very very interesting and very useful So that's the first thing I wanted to speak about is she will teach you how to do this Believe me, she will teach you how to think like this just making sure here That you can all see she will there's no doubt about it And she does she runs an exercise at the start of about chapter 2 Apologies Robin if I haven't got that exactly right But she has this example of where she takes you through her morning And she asks you to spot on the pieces of excess capacity and I thought I was okay at this Oh my god She does it exceptionally well and she'll just show you where there's so much more capacity in your day in your life Then you might actually think so and that's the first thing now The second thing that she will teach you and she and this is immensely useful for business is that she And I'm going to quote this now. She says diverse networked peers mean that instant access Means that you can get instant access to the right mind It's like tapping into the collective mind of the world Now is that a grandiose term or can't she back it up? Well, like most things I'd say that she does she can back it up and back it up very well Um, so what I wanted to do now was just take you through My Trip here. Okay, and I'm just going to show you how I am standing on the shoulders of so many giants In order to run this trip as efficiently as I can so, um Robert's point is that there's lots and lots and lots and lots of lots of people all over the world Who are currently conspiring today to help you be as successful as you can right lots of people all over the world And um, you might say, okay, that's a bit that's a that's a big term Now I I've just noticed that shanaid brady has joined Okay, and shanaid i'm really glad that you're here because you and I had this conversation Actually when I spoke at an event in dublin I'd say it's about two and a half years gone out When I pointed out the amount of people that you can have in your organization working for you Um with while you're still a one person business. Okay, and she and I will she and I will understand what I mean by that Um, it's something that I've that I've spoken about before And and she made this point to me how this particularly stood out to her So she made really glad that that you're able to join me here this morning. And also I see that liam mar My cousin is also here today as well great see liam and thanks very much for joining me Um, and to each one of you who are joining now, um, I really want to say hello I'm going to wave to you all as I say from this annoying belgium here And now how is the world conspiring to help you? Okay? Let's just think about this now for a moment. Okay So here I am in belgium If I wanted to do business in belgium right, which I do which I did at the very beginning of this business journey How exactly do I can I stand on the shoulders of others or do I book, you know an air lingus flight land in brussels and hope for the best Well enterprise europe network, for example is an organization that is 3 000 people working in it It is funded by the european commission and it pulls everybody together in the enterprise architecture all over europe And basically enables that organization to let all of their members know about opportunities that are happening So for example in my case my direct contact there is the dublin city leo local enterprise office And where if you're in belgium, so let's say you're tuning in from belfast today Well, then that would be for example In best northern ireland or if you're tuning in today from london That could be the london chamber of commerce if you're tuning in today from malta That might be finance malta and the reason I know all of these names is because I've worked with mal through enterprise europe network So today 3 000 people Funded by the european commission are working to help me and all of you Find new business opportunities right across this great continent and throughout in the world And that's that's robin's point is that Is that this is pulling together all the peers and if all we need to do is really think about how exactly we can How how we can leverage these peers? So how is it that we can connect with other people so that we can maximize what they're offering us now to give you a more You know simple example Booking.com for example I just mentioned how I use that think about all of the people all of those hospitality providers right around the world Who are conspiring today and to put themselves onto one easy platform that booking.com has also put together for me So that I can find really interesting Hospitality vendors right around the world and the people to talk to me about that inside track And when you think about the people who put all of those reviews there They're all helping me to make the right decision in finding the right place Now another one for example sky scanner How did I know that the flight that I chose to take out to Brussels yesterday was the right one? The one that I wanted to take the one that was going to be most suitable to my time The one that was most suitable to the budget and so on because all those people in sky scanner are doing it farming Also, if I look at all of my news sources So facebook twitter linkedin all of you together Are putting together a plethora of news stories so that when I go online in the morning I can see exactly what I need when I need to see it And at the right time and you're all keeping me up to date all at the same time Now the other reason that I'm here And this is particularly important and so this is why I really want to tell you about it The other reason that I'm here is because I'm interviewing somebody tomorrow In a different part of belgium for a new customer service role that has opened up in parts of business Okay, now, how did I find that person to interview? So did I go through a group of company? Was it through? Serendipitous opportunity again. Was it that just somebody rocked into my inbox and that from there I decided to pick up the mantle and and pursue them No, actually none of the above the answer is a site called Upwork. Now, some of you may be familiar with Upwork It's one of the biggest freelancing sites in the world So what I did was I went down to Upwork and I looked at this site and I Searched through the portfolio of people there who are interested in delivering customer service farming and not just for me for anybody who wants to Give them work and I looked at their language and I looked at their skills And I looked at where they lived and I looked at their availability All of which of course is meant very easy by the lovely people at Upwork And then I had a plethora of people that I could approach That I invited to send her for the job and a number of them did and anyway Look, we'll go way past all that but the key thing here is that through the peers Through all of those various different people with excess capacity And through the platform which Upwork put together which allowed me to to go in and check in On all of those people and what they were working on and how that what they were focusing on And together I was able to find their excess capacity and just as Robin says I was able to tap into the diverse network peers Okay, so the diversity is an Upwork of all different skills all different people all over the world And then if they were all on this platform Which means that they were networked on this platform, which is Upwork Which gave me instant access to a pool of labor, which I'm subsequently interviewing tomorrow And that's another way of course that I'm turning my what I could just be back in Ireland And I could be back in a two o'clock and then I could then be driving back to the office and then settling in whereas instead what I'm doing Is turning this trip into a higher return on investment? So that is exactly what she teaches you to do She just teaches you to look around the world and just look at all of the shoulders that you can stand on So that you can build your own You can you can specialise your own talents And jump and leverage on all of these other various different resources that are right around the world And where people are actively working today to make your life easier simpler more efficient faster And ultimately more successful, which is just brilliant When you tap into it and again Robin, this is what you have done for me now The third thing that I picked out of this and this is for a much fewer Group of people than the other two is that for those interested in building a platform She does show you um from the voice of true experience being the co-founder of zip care how the government should help Um, she shows you how to build the platform. She shows how it should be funded She integrates themes like blockchain particularly blockchain I'll be talking to you again about that in the future. Um, she talks about the growing pains She speaks about um a plethora of real business and social issues. She's very social conscious. I have to say she's Very very interesting from that point of view in the that she doesn't just look at business She looks at how how it all features in together She's a huge interest a huge huge huge interest in climate change And um and particularly how peers ink can help alleviate and solve the world's biggest issue Um, I'm also going to say hello to margaret I see margaret there has joined in from cavan great to see you today margaret And I hope you as a peers ink platform yourself by bringing together lots of people in various different networks That this book particularly appeals to you because I think I think you'd be interested in reading it So it's for all of those reasons that I think peers ink is a fantastic book Um, I as I mentioned I featured it heavily within my own masters my own masters Thesis was on the the peer-to-peer economy. I built a new strategic model for Bootstrapping startups in the peer-to-peer economy and I really wanted to thank Um in another just very brief example of how peers ink is working I really wanted to thank robin for her own input into this And but also to all of the other people who wrote papers People who wrote books some fantastic people like rachel bottsman and as so many others Get see as well who wrote a huge amount about business modeling and some other fantastic books that I will be reviewing here I want to thank all of you because of course Academic citations is an example of peers working together and where the platform is a paper in which to produce your insights And then of course from there you can present it at a conference and then from there create the conversation and so on and so on so robin Thank you very much for showing me ways in which I could scale You have changed the way in which I look at our business. We've completely opened the business now In terms of working with collaborators Working tapping into the fluid workforce like I mentioned without work partnering with people using their excess capacity Looking at our capacity ways in which we can work together and just like you said What it has done it is is is it has led us to a new place of productivity to a new place of innovation Opened up a lot more opportunity than I previously saw so I wanted to thank you for that I want to thank you for writing a superb book and also for responding to my tweets to my direct messages I truly wish you every every every piece of success in the future and And to each and every single person who's tuning in today Who will be watching this this facebook live when it is a video on our website afterwards Who will tune into this is a blog post on our blog the positive economists.com or who will read about this in the newsletter Thank you all. I wish you an absolutely Truly amazing happy christmas and from a very snowy belgium. Thank you and good morning


Alright, let's talk about how we actually produce the thyroid hormone. So first of all, the thyroid hormone is produced, it's built in the colloid, but the follicle cells themselves have an important job and their first job, we're going to see if we can get this to work, is to produce a substance called fibroglobulin. So fibroglobulin is produced inside the cells. And basically what I'm going to draw you a picture of it, because essentially fibroglobulin is the amino acid tyrosine, I don't know if you remember that thyroid hormone is an amino acid derivative, and essentially its fibroglobulin is 70 tyrosine molecules and tyrosine is just an amino acid in sequence.  Are you afraid? I'll stop. Once thyroid globulin is produced in the follicle cell, it's exocytosed out into the colloid. So that works, like now we have it in the colloid. Now, the second thing that happens in the follicle cell is that iodine, iodine is transported into the colloid. And so here's the scoop. Here is a little transporter. I'm going to do this in another cell. I'll do this one up here. There's an iodine transporter that transports, I don't know if you remember all my color coding, sodium and iodine into the follicle cell. And that's a simporter. And so they're working together, but the sodium is pumped down its concentration gradient and it allows iodine to come along with it. Now on the luminal edge, I had to think about that for a second because this would be the luminal edge of the follicle cell. There's another guy that transports iodine in and this guy's name is Pendrin. And I'm telling you this because I think there's clinical significance to a malfunctioning Pendrin because you can't get your iodine into the colloid. Okay, so once iodine is in and thyroglobulin is in, the iodines are added to the thyroglobulins. So remember that each box was just a tyrosine amino acid. So basically they get iodated. I don't even know if that's a word. Iodized, that's what they get. And they get iodized with either one or two and iodines added to them. Now here's the scoop and I want you to visualize this for a second. The fact is that this thyroglobulin is really, it's really long and it makes this kind of messy tangle. Okay, and I'm going to try to make it do what I want to do because the next thing that happens after the thyroglobulin gets iodated, I mean iodized, then watch. A place that has one iodine forms a bond with a place that has two iodines. And look, whoa, bad. I hate it when it does that. It makes those random circles. It forms a bond like right here. Now, do you see that? So watch, I'm going to make a little circle around this so that you can see this right here. That is one flavor of thyroid hormone. It's T3, thyroid hormone. Ultimately, a tour combined with a oneer and made a threeer. You can also have a four, T4. And T4 happens, let's see if I can make one. There's a tour and here's a tour. And then they combine with each other. Did you follow that? And now we have another thyroid hormone. That's T4. I just showed you that because I had a really hard time visualizing how the thyroglobulin pieces that had two iodines connected to the ones that had one iodine to make T3 and T4. T3 and T4 are your thyroid hormones. So watch.  And then you, I've got to put it down here, endocytose, that says endocytose. Are you going to endocytose, my friends? How about let's just take this whole folded thyroglobulin thing and endocytose it into the follicle cell. Once it's in the follicle cell, part six, you have an enzyme that slices it up. So you had thyroglobulin in the follicle cell, endocytose it, add iodines, fold, endocytose the whole thing in the follicle cell, and then chop it up. Chop up the hormones. And you get T3 and T4. T3 and T4. And again, you're chopping all of these things up, and then you exocytose the T3 and T4 into the bloodstream. Does that work for you? You can store, oh gosh, I read it somewhere, how much you could store like weeks worth of thyroid hormone in a single follicle, in the colloid. So you basically only endocytose this step and you need thyroid hormone. Otherwise, just leave it in the colloid and save it for later. All right, let's talk about what thyroid hormone does.


What's happening guys? It's Shane here. So one of my most popular videos to date was the college degrees that are actually worth it video where I went over the types of degrees that you can earn a lot of money from so that you don't go to college and end up becoming a debt slave. This is fine. I'm okay with the events that are unfolding currently. And after that video posted, I kept on getting hit up by a lot of people asking how can you choose a college major specifically for you? And I know that a lot of you are thinking about skipping college and you might be thinking about whether or not you're even going to go to college or if it's a waste of time for you. So I'm going to be sharing my thoughts on this because this is a huge decision that you should definitely take your time with and there's a lot that goes into choosing the best option. So I am someone who did go to college. I played the game of loans in one and I actually went all the way from undergraduate all the way through graduate school and I got my doctorate. And let me go grab that really quickly. One moment. I have minutes later. Okay, I'm back. So yeah, here is my very expensive piece of paper. I don't know if you guys can see it very well. But yeah, here is my doctorate. Cool story, bro. And the crazy thing is is that the average person will change their major three times in college and only about 25% of them will end up getting a job that has anything to do with their major. And out of those people, you have to think like how many of them are actually happy with their job? Probably half at most. Yet I was able to choose a degree and a major to go for at 17 years old and I landed a job. I went all the way through, didn't change my major once, and I'm in a career that I'm very happy with. And like I said, I've been through the whole system from undergraduate to graduate school. I've seen it all. I've made a lot of mistakes. I've made some good decisions. And if you watch this video until the end, you will definitely learn a lot about what you should and should not do. And I can guarantee you that this will make it much easier for you to make the right choice for your future. And I'm making this video because when I was younger, there was no video out there to help with this situation. At least if there was, I wasn't able to find it because if I did find it, I would have destroyed the living daylights out of the like button. No, but seriously, before I start on this video, I would sincerely appreciate if you did hit the like button because it really does help with the algorithm and it actually does help the channel out a lot. So with that being said, sit back, relax, and enjoy the video. So when it comes to picking your major, there's really five easy steps that you want to do in order. And the first step might sound stupidly simple, but you want to identify what you like, identify your own interests. And for some reason, it can be really hard for us to be honest with ourselves about what we really like and what really makes us happy. Not what makes our parents happy. Not what makes our girlfriend happy. Not what makes other people happy. What makes you happy. So the best thing you can do is just grab a pen and paper right now and just make a list of 10 things that you really enjoy. And don't even think about careers, just things that you enjoy in general. They might have to do with a career and maybe they don't have to do with a career, but just make a list of things that you really like.  And you want to make a list of at least 10 or more things.  So if you're passionate about PewDiePie videos, then write that down. If you're passionate about making coffee, write that down. If you're passionate about listening and watching ASMR videos, which are those weird videos where people make really quiet sounds loud, I don't get them at all, but they're really popular right now on YouTube, you get the idea, write that down. Now, after you've taken the time to do that, the next step is going to be to identify what you're good at as well as what you're bad at. And I just want to say really quickly that I do think that talent is overrated. I think that hard work is going to be talent 99 out of 100 times. And you've probably noticed that the person who gets the best grades in your class generally is not the smartest person. They're usually the hardest working person. And a lot of the time, the smartest person is the person that does the bare minimum and just sits in the back of the class and just doesn't really do much at all because they can. But at the same time, I think it's very important for you to be honest about your current skills so that you have a good idea about what you need to work on right now. And I think it's just very important to be practical. So an example of this would be if you're really bad at math, chances are you don't like math. And so it wouldn't make sense for you to go into engineering or physics or like theoretical math or anything like that because you don't like it and chances are you're really bad at it as well. And it can honestly be very, very difficult for us to be honest with ourselves and see what we're good at and bad at. So what I recommend doing is actually asking your friends and family. And you might think this is really awkward to do, but I'll provide kind of a little description, a little list of something that you can send to them. You can just tell them that, you know, you're taking a leadership class or something along those lines. This is a leadership class right now. Okay, you can just tell them that and just send them this and just, you know, maybe send it to 20 to 30 people and see what kind of responses that you get. And bonus points if you ask a few people who don't like you. And seriously, the sooner you do this, the better. I think everybody ends up eventually doing this. So you should just get it out of the way now and just go ahead, send the message to your friends and your family. Now the next thing that you need to do, and this is so, so crucial and important, is you need to figure out what your goals are for the future. You want to figure out what kind of lifestyle you want in the future. How much you want to make? When do you want to retire? Where do you want to live? Do you want to be a boss?  Do you want to be someone who's in leadership position? You need to figure these things out. And it's very, very important that you do so.  And when you have goals and you have a strong direction, it will be like a North Star that always guides you in the direction that you want to go. And the path that you take in order to get to that goal is going to be different depending on what the goal is.  I bumped into a Lamborghini and another Lamborghini. Few more Lamborghini. Found five Lamborghini. Or maybe you want to be a minimalist that doesn't spend hardly any money, doesn't really need that much money, and you like reuse your toilet paper or something like that. You have a little bin underneath the basket that holds the little toilet wipes where we put them so we can wash them later. Obviously, the direction that you go in life is going to be completely different depending on which goal you choose. Now, one thing I do want to note here is making money will make you happy up to a point. And after you get to that particular point, making more money really is not going to make you that much more happy. Now, there's different studies on this, but the general consensus is your happiness isn't going to increase much after you're making more than around 70 to $95,000 a year. So this is just something to keep in mind and you should probably go for a career where you can make at least $70,000 a year. So now you know what you enjoy, you know what you're good at and what you're not so good at, and you know what you want to achieve in the future. So the next step, step four is to do some research and figure out what majors align with your goals and the first two steps. Now, there are a lot of majors out there, but I did find a chart that kind of shows the starting salaries for all of the different majors. So go ahead and just pause the video and just look at the starting salaries and try to choose one that's above $70,000 a year if you can. And this should help you narrow it down depending on your individual choices. And now I'm going to say something that I think is probably going to be a little bit controversial and I really don't mean to offend anybody, but you know, even if something is your passion, I really don't think you should pursue a degree in it unless that degree will directly lead to you making money from that passion. And the reason for this is because there are so many free resources out there. So let's take history, for example. History is one of my biggest passions. And if you're interested in history, I recommend you check out, you know, Dan Carlin's Hardcore History series, or you can even check out the hundreds of free classes offered online if you want to seriously study the material. And many of these courses are from Ivy League universities like Harvard, Princeton, Yale, MIT, et cetera. So the absolutely best education that you could possibly get. And it's all for free. Now there are a lot of really good sites out there that you can do your research on in terms of, you know, finding something that pays well, that has good job satisfaction, all that sort of thing. But a couple of really good ones are going to be salary.com and glassdoor.com. Now while you're doing this, what you want to do is you want to make a list of at least 10 majors that fit those criteria that I talked about before. And these are majors that you potentially could see yourself doing for the next 20, 30 years. They're majors that you could make good money from and you would live a happy life. And if you've been doing your research and nothing gets you excited, then I highly recommend either A, not going to college or B, going to a community college and then just taking general classes for very, very cheap and seeing what you like. I like to have fun, fun, so after you've made this list, you want to start narrowing it down and looking at three things specifically. You want to look at the demand for the job right now. You want to look at the demand for the job in the future. So the projected future job growth potential. And then you also want to look up the job satisfaction rating for people who are doing the job right now. Now after doing this, you probably narrowed the list down to about three to five careers or so that really stand out to you. And what you want to start doing at this point is you want to start actually contacting people who are working in these careers. And you can do this by calling them, politely asking them if they can answer a few questions, going to different career fairs or different events that these people might be at. Just try not to be creepy about this and try to be respectful and these people will probably be happy to answer your questions. I just love surprising you. And if you have the time, you can even go ahead and shadow some of these people. And that's where you basically go in and you spend a few hours with them, maybe even the whole day, just kind of following them around, seeing what they do on a day to day basis. And after doing this, you will find that you will naturally start getting really excited about one of them and leaning towards one of them. And that is the one that you should definitely go with. So there you go. That is the five steps. But I'm going to take this one step further and give you an example from my life. So from step one, I've always enjoyed teaching, problem solving, experimenting, science, helping people out. From step two, I've always been good at experimenting, helping people out, teaching. And I've always wanted to go into something where I felt like I was making a difference and helping other people out. So from step three, I knew that I wanted to retire before the age of 40. I knew that I wanted to travel the world at some point. And when I did decide to settle down, I would probably settle down in San Diego and live a very comfortable lifestyle where I could either work or not work. It really wouldn't matter because I'd have enough money to support myself. So from step four, I don't really remember the exact list that I made, but I made a list of 10 careers that looked something like this. Doctor, geologist, petroleum engineering, computer engineering, computer science, pharmacist, architect, physician's assistant, biomechanical engineering, and physical therapist. And I started looking into all of these and I crossed doctor off the list because it took too long and I wouldn't be able to retire early if I became a medical doctor. I crossed geologist and architect off the list because after looking at it more deeply, I found that I wasn't really interested in doing the day to day stuff that they do. I crossed all of the engineering ones off the list because I'm really not that good at math. Then I contacted individual people that worked in the remaining careers and I basically just asked them, you know, how did they like their career? Would they have done a different career if they had another choice? And I saw what they did on a day to day basis and that combined with personal reasons made me lean towards pharmacy and it really became very obvious which one that I should go for. So I went for pharmacy, I never changed my major once because I'd done all the research at the beginning and this is one of the things I'm so so grateful that I did because it saved me so much time, so much frustration and I saw all of my friends or a lot of my friends ending up, you know, going in one direction and then changing their major and it was just something that really stressed them out and caused a lot of issues in their life. And like I said before, if you've watched this video and your passion isn't something that is not related to a college degree then I highly recommend just don't go to college because going that deep into debt that you can't default on is just not a really good idea and that debt will follow you for the rest of your life and that's a decision that you're making at the ripe old age of, you know, 17 or 18 years old and that's probably not a good idea because if you're anything like me at that age listen you do not know about my man now if you're looking for a straight up list of the college majors that are objectively just the best ones to go into then I did do a video on that and you can check that out right here and I would really appreciate it if you smash the like button hit the subscribe button ring the notification bell and comment down below any ideas that you have for future videos because I'm going to be dropping some big time value bombs in the next few weeks and you definitely do not want to miss out anyways hope you have a good one and bye for now


Welcome to vlog Thursday From my car with my wife. We're parked. I'm not driving. It's cool Just short vlog Thursday. I'm actually sitting here in Detroit in front of me is the Defunct Fisher body plant. I just have too many things happening to be at my office even tonight tomorrow We have a few minutes because I had to be in Detroit to pick up money for a job which then means I then had to go to Get that check deposited now. I have a few minutes before the next event I have to go to a networking event that she's going to go to with me. So I Was uh, I said, you know, let's find a shady abandoned area of Detroit to park. What do you think honey?  We are Trying not to get shot. Oh, it's fine here It's fine here. It's actually we're right next to one of my clients buildings where we do We've done a lot of infrastructure work. They're in the manufacturing sector as well It's just weird because there's developments behind us that are actually working and operational But everything in front of us is all Abandoned anyways, it's been this has been a really rough week but that's because so many things are happening that required me to Actually be in meetings, which normally is a little bit more painful the only meetings that much I'm more of an action person, but the meetings instead were Quite good and ended up being. Oh, you know very worthwhile and Unfortunately, I can't disclose any of the details unless we pull it all off But basically I was meeting with a company that has 40 locations and they're a global Company that has like about 20,000 people and we did some network consulting and engineering at a very high level So it's not something that I'm going to be doing directly There's teams of people to pull some of these projects off But I got to consult at a very high level, which is a lot of fun and making this project And they were really brilliant people so I had a fun time in the room with them Putting it all together sharing ideas throwing out throwing things out there for them. So that was a lot of fun Now I did read I've recorded it actually full of videos. I didn't like any of them So they didn't get published in the last week since the how they got hacked video Matter of fact, the studio is still set up with the microphones in that I recorded another video today And then my phone wouldn't stop ringing. I never got to it. It's been project project project project and Which isn't bad thing. I mean these are all very well-paying projects. So they Definitely required attention Organization and passed off as many as I can to my staff But some of them like it's a required my presence I have to even be on say that a job because timetables were moved up and no expenses were spared To move up timetables hence me picking up a check out of To out of expediency. I like that. They write on the check is called mobilization.  So basically one of the projects the timetables got completely shifted on us Because of a there's a calamity of events that do this where the people funding the project says well We're gonna turn the tap on how many more people to get it done sooner and We gave them numbers and they said, okay, you can go get a check. So from meeting yesterday is Large check today the kind you have to go and sign and pick up in person to agree that you'll make these projects happen And then me mobilizing all the people involved to make this project happen It's become it's there's a lot at stake because it's because scale and scope of things But you know you make it happen, but that means it's hard to take time to make videos and all that I Did see but I did not watch I noticed when I slow up into YouTube Chris over at crossock solutions releases ultimate unify hosting video, which is funny that in its complete coincidence I will maybe tweet out the URL later But we built a we're working on it's been a project So I did ansible screen connect and I've tweeted about that I haven't done a video on it, but I will to auto deploy screen connect and we're not working on an entire ansible script That will automatically grab the latest unify controller deploy it and install let's encrypt certificate all in one Flow so it's we think you did your work. We deployed it using DNS with the ACME cert today so Yeah, I have other people working on a project, but that's gonna be Another video because we have some more thoughts around making that happen at a very automated fashion to Build a service around it on top of that and this is dovetailing back into that meeting I had the other day me and other Group of friends We were really thinking about getting into some more open-source cyber security building a platform for some of that So this is they're all kind of related one It's security related to it's a lot of automation going in there So it's gonna be a whole lot of fun doing this Hello from I see Jordan and hey from Tantrum 06 to I try to be quick because the they pop up and go away really fast on the phone It's a little I know I can hit the thing. There we go awesome From London awesome. I mean this is part of the reason I did this now because I know if I wait Till I won't be home till probably 11 30 at night or so and I have an early morning meeting At 7 a.m. So if I did at night one, I'll be exhausted to I know all my UK friends will be in bed Don't be sleeping so I don't get to see as many of you the California people are cool with it because they're all off work They're like hey cool, you know midnight our time. They're at 7 8 o'clock their time something like that time zones are hard So Australia, I don't know what time it is in Australia.  So yeah, that's Really cool. Can I do a video on how wire guard works or small business? It doesn't it's in beta I wouldn't I'm not running it in production wire guards cool, but I'm not running it in production yet open VPN is so good Email encryption we're using Zix mail for some of the clients. There's another one that eludes me I'm not the one who sets a lot it up, but so that's it. What kind of car is this? Cyan TC. Yeah, she knows I used to be a car person now. I'm a guy Yeah, I used to be her car now. I'm just someone who puts the key in and make sure it goes and make sure it's yes I don't care anymore. I used to care Yeah, it's a little two-door sport coop. So I Got a north for that. Hi from Chile Yes, I am on key based is linked from my website. So if you go to lawrensystems.com you can find my key base profile That's how I generally want encryption Sent to me like if you I have my PGP signature on there So if you had to send me a PGP encoded message, there's a way you can do it on key base works really well for that So I'm gonna do a video on key base because I use it more and more and it's it's definitely important part of dinner So more pfSense videos definitely coming on that I've got one for outbound routing and then we just well I didn't do it one of my staff did Steve and maybe the person who we did it for it's a We did an outbound routing from hell video. So that's gonna be fun It was a multi-site multi VPN lots of security Because of the way things need to be set up for this particular client, but also required a ton of static routes To get everything where it needs to be with a lot of rules and things like that So it's kind of fun. I might tweet out that he actually said I could tweet out the map So I will love the diagram of what it looks like it doesn't have any public IP as a matter of fact It's VPNing across the metro network that way There's never a chance that across the metro network if you're not sure what the metro network is That's where it's like MPLS and that's where your Provider such as like a large ISP will give you private IP range across their network Like tunnel your sites together and normally that's fine But they want an extra layer of encryption in case they can't trust the MPLS provider And there's been cases where that's an issue and it's not that hard to VPN it But it does require a lot of special routing to especially the part of particular scenario that they needed. So that was really cool Just north of Flint. Oh cool The land of window Jamaica welcome Jamaica, Norway. I got someone from everywhere here. That's awesome Lots of people, but uh, yeah, we're so time is it I can't see the time on this 510 510 so we got to get going in just a few more minutes. I'm not going to try and drive and vlog So I won't be able to really read these and properly. Oh my god. You can barely drive as is Yeah, my driving can be a bit scary But I was actually thinking about this yeah, so oh, thank you. Thank you for the cup I was people are seeing nice things about me. Well, it's cuz they've never seen you drive. They've never seen me drive But uh, no, I you know, I'm thinking I will do some videos. I was thinking about this because it's getting warmer It's not quite it stays like first day of spring or yesterday was or something so I may do some videos from Detroit proper and Why not I you know come down here. I have some clients down here Maybe I could do it from some other buildings or something like that something different motorcycles down here Ride the motorcycles down here park in front of some abandoned buildings like there's someone parked down the street They're no idea why I have no idea. There's two maybe they're vlogging Oh man, look at these people stepping up on us over here Look at these geese back here, I don't think they're from around here. I don't think they're from around here to the Canadian Just do two geese just walking down the street towards us. Well Canada's not far look like a couple of Canadians there I don't know man. Oh Yeah, I should oh they said you should drive an off-log. You want to do that you want to head towards there I guess We can do that. Yeah, just go straight down right straight down Woodward That's Woodward right there at the flashing light. That's Woodward at the flashing light You're just repeating what I'm saying. You're not really even looking. I'm not really looking at all All right, I don't know if that's Woodward. We'll switch We'll switch off vlog for a little bit In that place cool back there. That's the Fisher plant. That's the old one. That's not the one It's in use anymore.  I do wear safety belts. That's required of me here Cardo's and stop beeping if you do that's a okay. Yeah, I also I don't want to hear the car beep Hi, Virginia. Burn out. Yeah, do a burnout in this car. No, I See someone this is I drive past her all the time. Oh, yeah, check out these geese Are you doing? Oh look they're coming at us. They think we got food. That's great Ha ha ha ha Oh, they're talking back. They're talking back This is a scion TC All right, we're on our way to our networking event.  We're out to pass by in Detroit. There's a lot of history over here That's falling apart. I can't really show that. Well, those are some that's an abandoned buildings, but I'm gonna show you the original Place, this is the first Henry Ford plant where things were built Packard plant the no the paquette. This is not Packard. This is the paquette plant. You guys can look this so Yeah, fish your bodies were great. This is So just go ahead and make a left Don't roll the window down so it's look clear Right here. This is the historic Ford paquette plant and they do tours and there's some Model T's in there It's actually pretty cool Yeah, you get a tour of Detroit right here. I mean, I want to do a tour Detroit video There's so much cool stuff here. One of my friends is in town Unfortunately, we didn't he's only in town for a day on another project But we're meeting up in the morning But I told him I said if he gets an extra day to come in town, I'll show him around There's a lot of there's just so much neat stuff here in Detroit There's a lot of history in the manufacturing and things like that and it's really it's also kind of interesting because we're right here You see all this abandon this one of the most beautiful art deco buildings Ever is right up here and I can't really take you through a tour of inside of it But I've actually posted some photos photos before we have a handful of clients in that building and it's absolutely amazing Look up the Fisher building. It's just absolutely beautiful Yeah, there was a grand tour on Amazon around.  So I'm trying to do stabilization. But yeah, Eastern market It's only a couple there. Yeah, look up Eastern market. That is another amazing brilliant place to go I'm trying I know what is another we can do this is well, welcome to driving Yeah, she drives a Jeep it's like for off-roading so yeah a glass of whiskey No, I'm on my way to have whiskey, but if I have it in the car that breaks a law Yeah, maybe I'll you know what maybe I'll do that sometime I don't mind posting whatever on my personal channel and I'll just reference it from here I don't know that a tour of Detroit belongs in the On the Lawrence system channel, but I have no problem Doing any of it on my personal channel posting some of that. Oh, you're lucky. You can do it. Yeah, I've looked There's the I'm in the car anyways.  They're the best. They're the best 2 a.m. Drunken food Yeah, it's the best 2 a.m. Food you can ever get so definitely awesome Do you install camera brands inside you make me yes, we actually do a Lot of hick vision that's a really popular brand and we've done access we've done a few others We the thing is like access and some of the Sony cameras are nice, but wow I mean, they're expensive, but we have some high-end clients. We're doing All that and not illegal in the flask. No in, Michigan's it's illegal in the flask. Sorry. Yeah, so What about the US banning hip vision they only banned hip vision for government contract work for what we're doing it doesn't matter So I don't care. I whatever. I don't know if there's politics at play Do I trust any of those companies? No, they're cameras with Questionable firmware in them. So no, I don't have any trust of any of these devices Doesn't matter which one they are that all have these, you know one-off kind of strange firmware issues Yeah, so we don't mind using Hick vision then the same thing exact vision is a popular camera system we use but comes down to pricing so People people ask you like what do you want to use instead of unify? I'm like, oh the exact vision system We use a lot of that and then they find out the price and they're like it's that much I'm like, yeah annually and it's roughly a hundred and thirty dollars per camera per year recurring license fees I Think is what it goes for so if you and we have a client that's got like 300 cameras And they're like they pay that much a year. I'm like every year. This is very different Unify is great because they don't have those license fees. So that makes a huge difference How do I have all the knowledge about networking and what do I think of die who they who seem okay? I know I don't really have much opinion. They're like any of the other generic he ones out there I've seen a few people say they like them. They work That's fine like the car. They're like the car is actually die who networking I've been studying and network engineering since there before there was network engineering and the scale and scope that there is now This is what I've been doing for my entire life. I didn't go to school I dropped out of school essentially and got into networking and technology. You dropped out of college You didn't drop out of school and it is yours. You graduated. No, not ice-cold, though I don't have a diploma You told me you did I they gave me the thing for the SAT thing or not the SAT thing But I never went to college. I know but I technically I have a diploma. I never acquired it So it's it says you're splitting ears Why didn't attend I didn't have enough grades to do it. They did it so they could use my meep score. I Didn't have enough credits to pass But I have they said I passed like I didn't have to go there no more Yeah Yeah, anyways Someone likes to split hairs splitting hairs. Oh now we are passing one of the Detroit Academy for something That's not it. I thought I'm looking for the Detroit library. There's a really big Detroit library over here coming up Big cemetery It's warm in here. Oh Is it oh, it's gone that place that have the really cool the egg rolls There's an egg roll place up here. That was pretty amazing. Oh now we're by look up the Boston Edison district if we're continuing our tour Boston Edison District Detroit. We're passing right by it. It's beautiful But it we're passing by it so fast. It's hard to hard to really see all the stuff here huge Yeah, that light wasn't red We're gonna see if we're gonna get pulled over now. Well, you want just take some more time to look at things We might get pulled over wouldn't that be an exciting vlog? Well as the officer, what do you think? I Yes, put all the Hick vision on separate networks that is absolutely true And this is one of the ways we do this is we put it all on separate networks that churches There we go, there's one of the big churches when you set these up we set up v-lands and everything else for this This is we don't put the cameras on the same network. They're completely separated from everything else That's just the standard practice I've been wanting to get to it and it's this would be an example and for those of you joining now I talked about earlier when we were doing the consulting with this large company. They have network segmentation But we are actually splitting their network up a bit more dividing it up And it comes down to the way we wanted to do the monitoring the way you do heavier monitoring on the server V-lands, but it took some restructuring again, and these are some of those You know, I want to make sure I get that knowledge shared with a lot of you because this is like the modern way to design it The tooling we used to design it like in terms of what software was implemented there I Can't tell you I can do it in a funny way I can't tell you the name of the client but we can talk about the software because if I tell you the name of Can't I can't talk about the software Those are important little aspects. That's why it's not really an NDA as much as that is a challenge I have about doing some of these videos as people say hey Why you can't why can't you do a video like this like that? I'm like it's a lot of proprietary information and these companies very specifically like I don't have authorization To do a video for a couple places we did installs They absolutely don't want people to know what devices were installed and the reason why is a very genuine security reason That genuine security reason is let's say, you know a company and you know their Wi-Fi system because Tom installed it You know exactly what Wi-Fi system they're using is well, then you find out there's a zero-day and you're like hey Wait, there's a zero-day on maybe they didn't patch in a time. Don't worry. I will but


Is What's good with Josh it was Ross back at again with another video and Tonight got a chance to check out the second episode of AEW dynamite, and I must say it was pretty enjoyable not gonna lie Obviously the best part for me of the show. I did enjoy the tag team Matched the first round or I think it was the I think they considered at the quarterfinals Between private party and the Young Bucks and the surprising upset which I like because you would think the Young Bucks would be The team to advance to the next round But they kind of flipped the script and they went in a different direction and gave a private party to the wind Which was dope a nice little upset Darby Allen. It will be facing Chris Jericho next week for For the AEW championship. I'm liking this I'm liking how they're progressing storylines and feuds in between matches and this was the best segment for me personally Jericho announcing his clique his group and It was so dope and The little shots he sent at WWE was so priceless. He's so good on a mic I'm looking forward to seeing what this heel faction will do They also had a nice little brawl at the end of the show.  So it was dope man I'm looking forward just feuds coming from this, but let's check out this this dope promo one of the best parts of the show and Let's see what it's all about. I already saw it But I want to kind of get my thoughts on it again. It was dope. So let's get right into it man this AEW so refreshing after just uh a week of well a weekend of just Just BS from the hell in the cell. I'll I'll get back into that after this after this club. So let's get into it Fucking love it That championship looks so good too That championship looks so good. It looks better than almost every single championship in WWE for sure Love it such an airy heel. I love it And Thank you Jericho He's a heel, but he has to heal it up, but the crowd loves him too. I like that.   I I like that Like this Like I said, this is easily one of my favorite parts of the show. Just just was so dope I like the eddy chance the little nod to eddy. That's all always great R. P. Eddie man I like how he doesn't say anything. He doesn't say a single word doesn't show no expression I like that just very very quiet very just Like, you know how you always have like a mob boss and they have that one guy on there Like security detail. He doesn't say nothing. He doesn't make a lot of noise.  His demeanor is always Quiet composed. I like that jk girls The the chanting his old little slogan from wwe we the people so good so good. I love this love this This is how you take control of a crowd, bro. He saw the crowd Taking over the promo with the weed of people. I believe he uh was doing it in his uh mma like when he was fighting in mma uh But the fact that he was able to take over the crowd like hey, hey, hey, hey We ain't doing that no more. I like that. Jericho. So good on the mic This is so good. I love that dig at wwe we This goes back into what I was talking about before we started this video creative and wwe is atrocious We saw that this sunday how bad creative is I don't know what type of ideas are being thrown back there But it is awful the fact that we had a match of this magnitude of hell in the cell end up in a No contest slash dq in a match that's not supposed to end like that. There's no dqs in and It ends off that way and it ruins both the wrestlers characters That is bad creative writing. I don't know who pitched that in the meeting and thought that was good I love this dig this ah, bro aw is is Is is so good to have another alternative to To mainstream wrestling outside of nxt. This is this is where it's at, man This is so good And then he just kept going kept kept shooting the shots at wwe. I love it I like That was I like that. He's undefeated And that's a shoot. I like that man just shooting shots Because wwe got the king of the last cares and the Brock Lesnar. He's like, hey, it's cool.  I love it. I can love it just Fucking love this promo so good their heels, but their charismatic Whoa, I like that man. Just subtle digs because they do got Tyson fury going After Braun Strowman. I just subtle digs man. This is how you do it This is how you do it and there's no better person to make these subtle digs than Chris Jericho. He's great on a mic He's so good so good It even gets better In a circle. I like it.  Yeah, it was like a press conference. I I'm not sure where it was at but basically Cody attacked Jericho at the press conference and I like how they keep that kayfabe going. That's so good Kayfabe has died in wrestling especially with social media So to see stuff like that outside of the ring to keep the field going That's how you do it man. That's what they were doing back in the day before social media You can still incorporate kayfabe within the social media World we live in and that was pretty dope. So This is so good This is where I like this it turns up here. I like this Just getting a little personal This was I like that's real edgy. I like that bro. I don't like your father.  I never liked him like I like that.   I love it, bro. Just the edgy That's what I like, bro That's how you would really talk to someone.   So if you're really about to fight someone you're not about to be friendly You're about to be vulgar. You let them know I'm gonna whoop your ass, bro I'm not meant to be friendly with you TV 14 man My favorite part is A bit of the bubbly a little bit of the bubbly Love it. I love it. I love it, man. And then like I said earlier before we got into it They had their match And it got Jericho's team won I believe and that's when uh It just became all out brawl with everyone up the inner from the inner circle and then you know, you had the uh Just uh, cody come out you had uh What's his name cody's best friend? Uh come out they kind of teased he was going to turn heel on him But he didn't he attacked everyone with a chair and then you had the young bucks come out It was it was dope. Then you had darby allen come out That was cool, bro. It was a nice little brawl. It was it was dope. I enjoyed it. This is this was cool.  Just subtle just subtle.   Don't worry about it It's coming.  So I'm looking forward to them building this uh all the way through I believe it's in november can't wait for it.  I enjoyed it. I also watched a little bit of nxt But uh, I enjoyed this a little bit more. I did but I did watch nxt and it was an overall cool show building storylines for their um for their future matches with uh undisputed air and other Uh tomaso champa and also a velveteen dream for uh I'm looking forward to all that too.

Good afternoon, everybody. I'm Tommy O'Brien, coming to you live from TF9 headquarters in St. Petersburg, Florida, 1 p.m. Eastern time on Tuesday, three hours left to go on the trading day. We've got markets hanging around negative territory. Dow Jones right now, of 109 points trading $26,618. We have the NASDAQ off 82 points, trading at $79.23. S&P is negative by 20, trading at $29.32. Notes and bonds slightly higher price, lower yield, the 10-year up one tick right now, $127.31. We have the 30-year up 12 ticks, $155.26. Dollar index up $328 ticks at $95.815. And how about Bitcoin up $462 bucks at $11,319. We'll start things off. Let's jump over to the futures markets. We'll start it off with the Dow. Excuse me, and quite an acceleration. So there is just prior to the market open, 9 a.m. Eastern time, quite an acceleration from 26,786. We trade down about 150, 160 points, 26,616. As you can see, the market breaking those lows right now, $26,590 in the Dow. S&P is new trading intraday lows, excuse me, right now as we speak, $29.27. NASDAQ 100, trading lower for most of the session, not that long ago, $9.30. We're trading at $77.54. You're talking about 114 points from that level, folks, $77.54 to $76.41, and we're not stopping there maybe. Crude oil above $58 bucks barely, trading at $58.01. We get the gold contract with some volatility as well. We got a couple Fed governors out there. We have Bullard talking. Bullard is saying that at most one quarter, and this is the action in the currencies as well, and we have Powell coming up as well, but Bullard saying that one quarter would be the most, and I'll pull this up. Let's jump over right now. We'll do a couple headlines to wrap this up. So there's your first headline, stocks declining on rate comments by Fed's Bullard, and the Bullard saying any July rate cut should be limited to a quarter point. So really discounting the possibility of 50 basis points, and then what you also have going on, whoops, that is Bullard, is you're going to have Powell out there talking right now, and there's the case. So Powell reiterating rate cut case has risen amid economic risks. You have Powell making a speech starting at one o'clock, I believe Eastern time, so we should be getting some headlines coming out of there for this hour. Stay tuned, folks. We got our man, Steve Rhodes coming up right now, and then of course Dave White live at two o'clock, Tom O'Brien live from three till five. This market escalating. We're now down 140 in the Dow. NASDAQ down 94, S&Ps down 23. Stay tuned, folks. Steve Rhodes coming up right now.
