Connecting Hawaii Business on Think Tech Hawaii. My name is Kathleen Lee and I am the host of this program. You can catch all of our Think Tech Hawaii shows on ThinkTechHawaii.com as well as on Think Tech Hawaii's Facebook and a YouTube channel. Today we have Leo Ascension, which is who is the chairman of the White Public Utilities Commission on our show to talk about renewable energy and grids. Leo, welcome to the show. Thanks Kathleen. Pleasure to be here. I appreciate you being here since I know I mentioned to you that I've seen you on another Think Tech Hawaii show. We love you so much that we have to ask you to come back on various iterations of Think Tech Hawaii shows. So thank you again Leo. If you could introduce yourself to our viewers, we know you are the chair of the Public Utilities Commission, but you can go into more detail about your background. Yeah. I became a commissioner about three years ago and was named as the chair just this past July. July 1st was my first day as the chair. Basically I'm the de facto head of the agency, although we do a lot of our administrative side of the house is done by an executive officer that we have on staff, but we also work as a team. We have three commissioners in total and we work as a team to, for every facet of administering our agency as well as the decision making. Background, I'm basically a planner, an urban planner. That's my background, but I have worked in different state agencies throughout my 30 year career as a planner. Also I had experience working at Hawaiian Electric, so I know the electric side as well, but then ended up here at the PEC appointed by Governor Ige to make sure that we regulate a lot more people than the electricity sector, so I'm responsible to make sure that we're always keeping those other regulated entities in mind as well as doing the work on the electricity side. And you launched into my second question, Leo, so the public utilities commission regulates public utility companies in Hawaii. I know you already talked about electric companies. What else does that include? So we also regulate water carriers, which includes young brothers and a very small shipping company, they both ship property and people. It's called Honohaike. They run between Maui and Lanai, so we regulate those other water carriers. We also regulate motor carriers, which is usually your tour buses, your moving companies, things of that nature, doesn't include Uber, doesn't include taxis. It's more the larger companies that kind. So I think Robert's Hawaii, but even if you see a small mom and pop limo service, we also regulate them. The other two areas that we regulate is private water and wastewater systems. So this is not the municipal system, not the border water supply, but the small private ones that might be in a subdivision somewhere. So we regulate those companies. Altogether, there's about 1600 plus entities that we regulate. Sorry, Leo, I didn't mean to interrupt you, but you were talking about water. So what are some examples of those places just so people have an idea? So one is where I live out in East Honolulu. We have Hawaii American Water that provides sewer or the wastewater system in East Honolulu. So we would regulate that company. Hawaii American Water also has different water and wastewater systems throughout the state. They're small. It might only service 100 to 1,000 people. So they're not on the county system or the municipal system. Got it. And then you mentioned the border water supply as well. I think you're right. Some people might think that they are the entity that regulates some of those that you just mentioned. So what is the difference between the PUC and the BWS? Well, the water company, those are the municipal systems. So they govern themselves. So we would govern everyone else that's not on the municipal. So on any island, there's a water supply department and there's also sewer or wastewater provision systems that are owned by the by government, by city. And so we don't regulate those folks. Got it. And thank you for making that clarification. Let's launch into the conversation on renewable energy. So I know you you're fairly passionate about that. And we there is the Hawaii Clean Energy Initiative that has the goal of transforming Hawaii's economy so that 95% of our energy comes from clean energy. What are some ways that you've seen or maybe what initiatives are the PUC involved in to be part of that movement towards clean energy by 2030, which is coming up pretty soon. Okay. Well, that has been updated, right? The goal is now 100% of generation in the islands have to come from renewable energy sources. And that needs to be done by 2045. Right. On top of that, there is now a net of carbon net zero, right, goal by 2045. So that's, that's the parameters that we're working on now.  It also includes water. If it's in, you know, wave technology or ocean technology also includes ocean thermal conversion. So there's small, right, there's a, there's a pilot project happening way back when, right, at, at the host park in Kona, the energy lab there. And, you know, but now there's the smaller scale OTECH systems that are being tested also at the park, right? So it's kind of scaled down version that could probably be anywhere. Also includes a recently hydrogen, right? And if, if the hydrogen is produced from renewable resources and that counts as towards, right, the 100% RPS goal, the renewable portfolio standard goal. So, you know, right now, if you're to look at the percentages statewide, we're on track to actually meet the 2040 threshold. And the 2040 threshold is 40% of our generation is coming from renewable resources. We're actually, 2020 was the 30% threshold. They were well, and I think all of the utilities, electric utilities on the island was somewhere between 32 and 35%. So they are trending ahead of the threshold years. The challenge will be in the later years, right?  But then we still need more of it, right? So I can, I can point to Kauai with Kauai Island utility corporation cooperative, right? They, they invested in solar 20 years ago, right? And right now, right, what they're at, they're at 70% renewable for the island, right? Their generation comes from 70%. They're now doing the next kind of next level or the next harder project of a pump, pump storage hydro. And that is very a complex project, it's the expensive project. But then if they get there, if they get that project in, you know, they'll now go from 70 to somewhere around 85, 87% renewable generation, right? So that's the example. So, right, they're kind of like the poster child. At the same time, they are a cooperative, right? They take a little bit more agile than, say, Hawaiian electric, right? Who is a shareholder own, right? So, yeah. So Leo delvented out further, because I did have a question from someone who brought up Kauai as well. How do co-ops work when it comes to utilities such as that? Well, like I said, right, the cooperative is just its ownership in, right? That's the main thing, right? So every resident of the island of Kauai and every business that gets energy from the co-op, they are the members, right? They're not called ratepayers, they're the members, right?  And the board makes decisions on how, right, the utility would be run. They entrust that in a CEO to run it. And then they have a full, you know, staff, just like any other utility. It's just, right, there's no shareholder, right, per se. The thing about a co-op, right? And prior to the current co-op, there was actually an entity called Kauai Electric, right? Which was a small investor-owned utility, right? Whenever there's a co-op that is proposed, you can't just come in. You need to have both sides, right? The willing buyer and the willing seller. So in the case of Kauai, some years ago, more than 25 years ago, there was a willing seller in Kauai Electric. And then there was a willing buyer in the cooperative, right, to come in. But the main thing is, I think, right, you see cooperatives on, like, you know, more rural areas, if you will, right? If you're on the mainland, it's more rural areas. Whereas, right, the traditional investor-owned, right, kind of services a bigger area, right, has more, more, more customers in the light, right? So that's basically the main difference, right?  So it's really, you know, their makeup allows them to be more agile, right? And they can make, right, investments, they make prudent investments, right? And because it's at a smaller scale, that prudent investment right, is more, is more defined, and then you know what results you're going to get. So how would, how does that affect your consumers? Two-part question, how does it affect consumers as far as what they pay for when it comes to utilities? And is that, is whatever is going on in Kauai, is that possible? Or is that in the works for other islands as well? Yeah, so what, Kauai, okay, before Kauai invested in solar, they actually had the highest rates of any of the islands, right, electricity rates. And then, right, it did take time, in fact, when they put in the first solar farm, the rates actually spiked upwards, right, for a short period. And that's rightly so because, right, there is cost in, right, putting in a solar farm, right? And who has to pay for it, it's the members of the co-op, right? But over time, you would see, right, a reduction, right, in your rates. So fast forward 20 years, in fact, I think this past April or May, there were a couple of days where the rate, the daily rate for KAUC was actually lower than the rate on Oahu, right? So it did take 20 years, but, right, you need to make that investment first, right? And it takes time to cut now could it happen on the other islands? Yes, very much so, right? And I think HIKO, right, for Maui Electric, for Hawaii Electric and Light, and Hawaiian Electric here on Oahu, they are doing that, right? They need to, all right, now, right, they got a bigger base. They have different types of surcharges that, you know, sometimes KAUC does not have. But at the same time, like those surcharges, I'll take fuel, right, the fuel surcharge that is a pass through to every customer in HIKO's jurisdiction, right? We all pay it, right? I pay it, you pay it, in your electric bill. And it's a direct pass through, right? Whatever HIKO, whenever they buy the fuel, whatever that price is, right, that entire price gets passed through to the customer, to pay, right? HIKO has no markup or anything like that on that fuel. So the answer to reduce the amount of fuel used is to get more renewable resources on the system, right? Because that's what you're displacing. Now, you might not get totally to zero use of fossil fuels because there's always going to be some fossil generation on standby just in case, right? We have 40 days of, you know, rain and or no wind days, right? That's not generating to be stored in batteries. So there's that backup, if you will. But the closer we can get fuel use down to zero, which means they don't have to buy that much fuel, which means, right, the cost that's passed through to the consumer is lowered, right? So now I will say that for Oahu, I understand, right, that we have limited amount of space. There's competing interests for that, you know, open space, right? Be it conservation, be it for agriculture, be it for a formal housing, be it for more commercial area, etc., right? And so that's one area where I think, you know, the state and the counties where government really needs to look at what is the priority, right? And to me, right, we have the goals that I mentioned, right, of 100 percent renewable generation is in law, right? So, but so is the provision of a formal housing, so is the provision, right? We do want to double our egg production, right? How do we, how do we make it all work together? Basically, right, we need more renewable energy resources and projects to come online, because that's what's going to drive less fossil fuel use, which means HECO needs to buy less, which means the costs of that fuel, right, the pass through is less, right? Because it's all equated to how much fuel HECO currently buys, right? They're also subject to, right, global markets, right? You saw a spike in, we saw a spike in just your gasoline that you use for your vehicle, right? HECO was not immune to that, right? It's still fossil fuel, so they saw the spike in prices, global prices as well, so when you see that, it results in your bill going up, right? And there is like about a two to three month lag, right? HECO has to buy it, whatever they buy today is going to actually be used in two months, right? Because it needs to get here, it needs to go to the refinery, right? And et cetera, et cetera, until HECO can actually use it, right? So if today's price, you know, I don't look at the prices every day, but say the price was $100 today, right? When HECO actually uses that, that's the price that's being passed through, right, to consumers. So today's bill, if you got your bill, right, this month and you saw a spike, you can go back two to three months, right, and look at where fuel prices were, right, on the market, on the global market, and that's probably why, right? Two to three months ago is when, right, everything started spiking. In fact, it started spiking, right, right when Russia invaded Ukraine, right, because that's part of the global fuel supply, right? So that's basically how it works. I mean, we need more renewables on the project, and that points to how did Kauai do it, right? How did they prudently do it? And, you know, that could be a model for Hawaiian Electric. Of course, Hawaiian Electric has more assets, aging infrastructure as well. So some of that needs to be updated as well, right? We can just jump into kind, so there's this, you know, entire plan that the utility has, I'm talking Hiko, right, on how are we going to really achieve within their jurisdiction, their islands that they service, how did they get to 100% renewable generation? Thank you, and I appreciate you tying everything into a global perspective as well. I think sometimes we miss that, right, because we're so focused on local issues. But on that note, let's talk about the grid. When people say, okay, someone's going off the grid, what is the grid? The grid is everything from the power plan to the distribution, or what we call TND, transmission and distribution, right? From the power plan, it gets transmitted out to, right, local areas. And then it's distributed down to the customer. That is the grid in its entirety, right? So when you talk about going off the grid, right, you're taking, you know, if give you an example, if a condo somehow wanted to go off the grid, let's make it very simple. When a customer, one single family home wants to go off the grid, means they're going to produce their own power, they're going to store their own power and use their own power and not rely on any of the electric utility, right? Now, some people might be comfortable with that. Some people might say, you know, I can only have so many solar panels or, right, I can't put up a wind turbine, right? I can only have space for so much battery. So I do need backup, right, or standby, which is back to the utility. So in a way, right, unless you're truly going to be 100% off the grid, more than likely you're going to be more like 95% off the grid, right? Because you still need a wide electric to be there in case of that day of 40 days of rain, right? And you don't get as much sun and solar production in generation. So, right, there's this piece that everyone forgets when you say going off the grid. But getting back to your question, right, the grid is the entire from power plant to, right, the wires in someone's house. You mentioned, and I'm glad you have a smaller example. What about with larger examples? Like landowners taking, you know, themselves off the grid and in the process taking like larger businesses, hotels, or what have you off the grid? How would something like that affect the local economy and the local community? Yeah, so on that scale, right, you start to take off, you know, a good amount of the load, right, that's on a grid. So now what you're left with is one, the utility who's generating, say it's a power plant, right? They won't have to provide that much load, right? You don't have to produce as much energy because somebody's off the grid now, right? But then that doesn't mean that it just would cut, that may mean that the generators that they have are now running inefficiently, right? Because they were sized to provide, right? Let's use some numbers, 100 megawatts, right?  So now your generator that was designed to provide 100 megawatts only needs to produce 70, but that means you're running that generator very inefficiently, right? Because generators are made to run at some kind of optimal efficient range, right? So taking that much load off might mean that now, and you would still have to produce that, that's 70 percent, right? 70 megawatts of load. Someone still needs to pay for it, and it's going to be the people that are still on the grid, right? The person off the grid is going to say, I don't need to pay any bills, anything from, say, the utility. So that means everyone else who's left needs to make up, right, that cost, right? So that's the impact, right? The impact would be to businesses, to residents in the area or in the jurisdiction where, right, this utility operates would be left footing the bill, right? And that's probably the major economic impact, right, on somebody on a large scale going off the grid. Leo, I wish we had an hour show, but because you're delving into more questions for me, but I know you do have other obligations to thank you again for the work that you do on the PUC. Is there anything else that you would like to add? No, I think, you know, beyond the lookout, right, there's a lot of different programs. I know recently, right, you know, bills have been going up because mostly of the fuel surcharge, you know, I am assured that we, and this is more for Wahoo, right? There's a number of projects to come online. They were all impacted by supply chain issues and the like. We're seeing those developers now kind of sort themselves out and starting to get more parts. We're starting to see the projects start up again, right? We just had, for example, on a Wahoo, right, Mililani Solar came online. They're actually providing 39 megawatts of power, which helps the utility. There's another one coming online later, hopefully by the end of this year, to provide another 40 plus megawatts, and then we have about eight more projects coming online in 2023 and 2024, right? And, you know, kind of like back of the envelope calculations, show that if those total of, you know, nine or 10 projects are online, bills can be chopped in half from what they are today. So in other words, there was a projected $15 increase, right? It would now be $7. So if you do the simple math, you probably need another eight to 10 more projects, right, to really drive the bill down, right, to what it was, say, pre-pandemic, right? So that's what it's going to take. And then if you do that, right, you lower, again, right, you lower the fuel costs, right? You lower the surcharge that gets passed on, right? And that should impact your bill. And we get a little bit closer to 100% renewable energy goals, right? So I think that's the thing that, you know, that the public should know about, that that's why we keep doing what we're doing, right? We're going to have another RFP for renewable energy sources on Oahu, the big island, and on Maui, right? So that's coming. And so, right, that's the framework that Hawaiian Electric uses to get more projects online, right? So be on the lookout for that, right? If you're a developer, right, that's going to come out. And I can't give you a timeframe on when it's going to come out, but I would say soon. Thank you, Leo. Appreciate that. Let's pull up the website. If people would like to learn more about you or the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission, where can they go? So it's at puc.hawaii.gov. And you see the front page there. A lot of the front page is about, you know, the latest happenings or dockets that the commission is working on. But if you scroll through the top, there's like an about us tab or button, and then you can click on that. And you can find out more about the commission, who we regulate, find out who the commissioners are, and all of that. Wonderful. And again, yeah, go ahead, Leo. Your final thoughts. The other part is that on the website, we do have, right, what we call our document management system. And that is every document that is filed with the commission and in the certain dockets, right? So it would be key if you know what the docket number is, but you can do a quick search on it as well, right? And then it will give you a list that you can see which one, your particular card. But then, right, it has every document there because it's a, it becomes a public document when they file it with us. That's actually really good to know and something I did not know prior to this. So thank you, Leo. I appreciate you being on the show today. Again, this was Leo Aracension, Chairman of the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission. And thank you again for coming on Connect with Hawaii Business. We also want to thank Jay Fidel and the entire staff at Think Tech Hawaii for making shows like this possible.

With all of the major components already made, it's time for us to shift our attention to a new section of our plant. Welcome to our small parts department, one of our major sub-assemblies. So let's take a look behind the glass at how we make live wells, coolers, storage boxes, and much more. In our previous episode, you saw coolers, live wells, and boxes installed onto our decks. In this episode, we're going to focus on how we build each of these parts. It all begins with the first layer of gel coat, which in most cases is white. For live wells, we give them a light blue color to differentiate them. Many avid fishermen believe the blue color helps keep bait calm. Once the gel coat has cured, fiberglass and resin are simultaneously sprayed to form the first layer of fiberglass, also known as the skin coat layer. Before the resin dries, it's important to make sure there are no air bubbles trapped in the resin. This is done using special rollers and ensures that the fiberglass has adhered to all of the areas and it helps reduce any excess resin. Depending on the intended use, each small part will receive the adequate composite materials needed for strength and insulation. Each piece of composite material is pre-cut using our state-of-the-art in-house CNC machines. This maximizes our production time and ensures precise specifications. When placing composite materials, team members will collect the exact cuts of materials for the parts they are building. These pre-cut pieces perfectly align to their specific small part. Composite materials are first pre-soaked in resin and a wet bed of fiberglass is sprayed prior to applying each piece. Once the pieces are laid out, additional fiberglass is applied to the top to encapsulate the composite materials. Lastly, each part will be covered with a combination of dry, precision-cut fiberglass pieces and chopped fiberglass to form the final layer. Once the part has cured, each piece is demolded. The small parts then make their way into our cut and grind booth for final cutting and trimming. This leaves the parts smooth and ready for the next step. Once each part has left the cut and grind booth, they will be installed onto the proper deck as you saw in our previous episode. Each part is bonded to the deck using methamethaclet, an aerospace bonding agent which unitizes both parts. With all of the boxes installed, the deck is now ready for final trimming. Before wrapping things up, it is worth mentioning that these are just some of the small parts that we build in our small parts department. There are many other items such as drainage boxes, gunner caps, and even the access pucks that you saw in our last episode. These small parts help make up the intricate details that we design into our boats. Maximizing every inch of space by bringing you larger storage boxes, live walls, coolers, and more. Let's take a quick pause here and talk about one of the other parts that we didn't get to see during this episode. It's this part right here and even if you've seen all of our videos, you probably don't recognize it. This part gets bonded to the underside of the deck and it's part of our self-failing cockpit system. The way that it works is any water that gets on the deck goes onto this box and then it gets piped overboard without going into the bilge. Now using a collector box allows us to tie in different things, not just the deck. Eventually the part may look something like this once we've tapped into it. One advantage that we have by using a collector box system is that we only need one through-haul per box. So we don't need a bunch of through-halls on the backside of the boat. The second advantage is that it's at a different level than the deck. So any debris on the cockpit simply goes into the box and it keeps your deck completely clean. Over the top all you see is a beautiful stainless steel drain cover. Thank you for spending time with us taking a look at how we build our small parts. This is part of our SportTech Advanced Fabrication process. This preparatory combination of processes and materials yields the best results each step of the way and has been thoroughly tested for durability, longevity and finish. All sportsman boats feature 100% composite construction with zero wood. Join us in our next episode for another installment of Sportsman's Behind the Glass where we see all of the structural components come together to form a boat. From Somerville, South Carolina, my name is Victor and thank you for watching.


What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overlord here? So the day is upon us tomorrow is the day for screen five to officially start filming out in Wilmington, North Carolina It's been nine almost a decade since screen four released in April of 2011 We have our full cast on board here.  I haven't seen too much of him. Jen or a tag is the Driving force behind today's video. She recently sat down with entertainment tonight and shared some tidbits About some of the things that we can expect in regards to the production and what's going on and how everything is on set And she also touched on the opening kill. There's been a lot of rumblings about a specific actress celebrity singer appearing former wizard appearing in the franchise as the opening kill that of course being Selena Gomez Selena Gomez has been just getting rumored to be the opening kill of screen five and Jen or take a touched on it briefly in this recent interview with entertainment tonight But before we got into that, I want to talk about something that 3c films recently did a video on shout out to him I did bring this to his attention, which is what prompted him to make that video He also went into a bit of other details in the video that I shared with him privately Our messages that we have between each other So just to start off now, we know that screen five isn't going to be about Sydney Prescott We know that it's for from what it looks like on the outside. It's not gonna be about Sydney Prescott I can say that yes as you guys have if you follow me on Twitter, you know that yes I am aware of a certain thing that will happen if they go with a certain ending that I'm aware of if This is the ending they go with Sydney will have a factor into that but I'm not of course gonna go over that until the movie comes out Once the movie comes out, I literally would show everything that that person sent me So I don't want to say share then to come off like I was lying or something but We know we're expecting Melissa Barrera to be Sarah who is gonna be a young woman returning to her hometown to investigate a series of vicious crimes Now Sarah is not the name that I was told many months ago because as you guys know You saw on Twitter I shared that I have known a lot of details about screen five But just was waiting for these official announcements to come to you know See if this person was legit and that as the audition tapes are coming out and as all these other things come out I was getting just reaffirmed that this person is telling the truth And I just didn't want to say anything until we all knew as a group so Here we have right here in front of you you have like from the Southern Casting Agency website They have listens for stand-ins looking for standards for gale do we and then on this next one you see here We have stand-ins. They're looking for stand-ins for two characters Sam and Richie now 3c pointed this out in his video because I pointed out to him look at the letters of each each name Richie and Sam The first letters are We've come to know that the two people we will be expecting to see like Costco workers Also having a relationship in the film will be Sarah and Ryan Now Sam was the name that I got told would be our lead for screen five back on the 4th of July So when things started coming out and it wasn't Sam being mentioned. I'm like, okay, I Instantly started thinking I don't I didn't think that person was lying to me What I instantly thought was okay. They're they're using they're using I made mention of it in videos They're using like separate names from what they're actually going to be called in the movie And that's exactly what it looks like is going to be because on these talent on that talent agency website where they're looking for stand-ins for two characters They're not naming Sarah and Ryan. They're naming Sam and Richie. So Sam is Sarah and Melissa Barrera most likely is going to be portraying Sam Sarah Jack Quaid, we're all associating him with Richie Ryan the boyfriend of Sarah.  It's not that I was lying I didn't want to come off as if I was lying because it's not that I'm lying It's very obvious at this point that they have multiple scripts that are working with and they're doing a lot of things to keep everything under wraps Because that's what Jen or take a shared in her recent sit-down with entertainments night. She's talked about how the Production is they're keeping everything not even the cast members know everything. They know very little She even went on to state that they have to pause themselves sometimes when she's talking to these other cast members To make sure that hey, do you know the same information? I know and then just to address something else about that They are she she described screen 5 whatever is going to be called. She says it fits in perfectly With the previous four movies. That's because that's what the interview asked her She said they fit in if this new narrative will fit in perfectly and it's great to have the returning cast back She also touched on against Selena Gomez the rumors that she will be the opening kill She basically says she doesn't know what's going on with Selena Gomez but according to another article which I I don't even know this one if I she even mentioned this this article They struck me as a we got this covered They said a friend of a friend who is friends with Selena Gomez a source Says that Selena Gomez is gonna be in the movie But she can't say anything because that's what heard in the studio and the and the filmmakers involved with screen 5 had worked out She can't say anything because that's how top secret this is gonna be so you know what I at this point Who knows if it's true or not? We're not gonna know if that's true until we see Selena Gomez getting gutted by Ghostface at this point Because we know that they're supposed to be filming at a house in Wilmington, North Carolina from at least September 22nd to the 26th starting tomorrow Most likely gonna be the opening kill. That's what we're assuming now this they could be filming it out of order They could be filming this out of order, but I just really found it interesting how Basically, there's still so many things that I am waiting to see if they come true for me to then also reveal it Okay, I was aware that this could be a possibility Because this person they sent me other things. I am aware of a particular fate regarding Kirby We don't know if Hayden Pantier is gonna be in the in the movie just yet I do want to throw out there that her not getting an official cast announcement Doesn't mean that she won't have some type of involvement in the project What I know I do know I do know I do know what the fate for Kirby was I do know yes, whether she is going to be dead or alive, but I want to highlight the fact that Again, this is just a version. This is a version. They could instantly Give us something different because you guys are on Twitter Demanding at this point that they bring Kirby back So all this demand and everything they might do something completely different that might not sit well with you might take you off And honestly, I would probably back off because if you want Kirby in the movie. I I don't think They they come out and made statements. I don't think tweeting them is gonna necessarily do anything. It's not up to them It's I wouldn't put it past them that they made the offer It comes down to Hayden Pantier Is she in the proper mindset does she want to be involved in a project such as this at this point in time in her Career does she want to even return to the role of Kirby? I know she has respect for the character because we saw in late December. She was rocking that Kirby haircut and It's not even that it's just that she's been going through a lot of things personally She might not be down to do a screen movie. Just keep in mind I do know something about Kirby and if they go with that route Then they just go with that route now. It might not be the route that they go So what there's no point in me talking about it and telling you what it is just just know that yes if you follow me on Twitter, yes, there is an outcome that I am aware of for Kirby and It'll probably just be depending on whether or not Hayden commits to it or not. So that's all I really want to say. I'm gonna move on from that So just to talk a little bit more About those character switch-up names. So this whole entire time because Zach Cherry, I believe is the one who started this Someone came to Zach Cherry the same way I went out to someone who was posting stuff on Reddit Someone came to Zach Cherry and they gave him a spreadsheet of cast of Character names and character descriptions for screen 5 they work on the project. So they weren't lying But my individual who came to me they didn't provide me a spreadsheet or anything They just told me that this girl's name was going to be Sam So when I saw everybody talking about Sarah and all these other type of things I instantly said to myself I wonder if they are using code names of some sort and it seems like that's what's happening because I I knew something before Zach Cherry put out that video So when I saw description that mentioned Sarah and not a girl named Sam I was kind of perplexed because things were matching up exactly how they were supposed to in my In the stuff that I was told I was told that this would be a woman who left town when she was very young She is coming back After her something happens with her I Can't I don't I almost spoil something. I'm not even gonna bother going into it at this point I'm really excited about screen 5 starting production tomorrow. I can't wait for it. I know you guys can't wait I can't wait to see what happens. I can't wait to see what all comes out of this I am aware of one potential ending and if they go with it I would be very satisfied, but I'm not gonna go into that unless it actually happens If it doesn't happen I will reveal it of course on this channel, but Let me know what you guys think about all these down the comment section below. Are you excited about production starting tomorrow? Can you what are you looking forward to the most because there's also another thing that I am aware of I'm also Very much aware of the fact that we have something to look forward to in regards to the character of Stu Not not Stu in particular not him being alive or dead Just something about Stu because and the reason I've connected these dots is based off of what Matthew Lillard tweeted and based off of Some of the things that another person sent me on Twitter shout out to you I For I'm forgetting your handle on Twitter at the moment But you know who you are if you watch my videos and after doing some digging Something regarding him is going to be a factor in this project if they go that route It's not him being alive or dead Anything like that, but let me know she just think about all this down in the comment section below Are you excited about production tomorrow? If you haven't already make sure you subscribe turn on post notifications that never miss a video in the description I have links on my social media accounts my Facebook Twitter and Instagram You can message me there to limiters any movies or views you're having to cover in the future out in my guys I will see you in the next video


What's going on guys and welcome to Facebook ads Friday week 29. So if this is your first week tuning in, every single week we take a look at two proven profitable drop shipping products that are currently being sold on Facebook. I'll show you where to source the products from, I'll show you how to design your product page template. So essentially you have the three key ingredients to a successful drop shipping business. So how do I know that these are successful and profitable products then? Let's take a look at product number one. Before we get into the numbers, which is the validation behind this product, let's take a look at exactly what it is. So the first thing I want to point out is something I actually spoke about in my video on Wednesday. So I do do videos every single Monday, Wednesday and Friday by the way, if you want to subscribe. But anyway, one of the points I spoke about was the first two seconds of your Facebook ad. The average attention span of somebody on a phone on Facebook is 1.7 seconds in that tiny little timeframe literally gone. After that, they're gone. If you haven't captured their attention and made them intrigued about what your product is, they're gone, never to return, never to buy your product. So if we go back to the first second of this video ad, we can clearly see the product in vision. We can see if you have a big dog, so that's their target market. And then you can see a big dog in the background of the products being used on it. So in that first second, they've captured their audience by saying, if you have a big dog, they've shown exactly what the product is, and they've shown exactly what it does. And the proof of their success will be in the put in when I show you the engagements and the comments section. After that, the rest of the video ad isn't that critical. You simply just need to do a half decent job of showing exactly what the product is, what it does, and showing a bit of social proof as well. The social proof for this particular video ad is the fact that there's lots of different dogs that this product has been used on, which gives off the impression that lots of people have bought this product and used this product. And if lots of people have bought this product and used this product, then it must be good. The reason why I know this product is successful is because if we jump in the top right hand corner, so this is from a company called Puppy Jet, I'll show you the Shopify store in a second. It is a one product store. This ad has been running since August 22nd of 2022. It has 5.3 thousand reactions, 1.6 thousand comments, and over one million views. Now while the viewership isn't off the scales massive, the next product I'll show you has over five million views, which is more respectable. What is really respectable, what is really impressive is the comment section. And this is where the proof behind the proven product is. So what we're going to do is we're just going to go through the most relevant comments. I'll show you the newest as well. So you can see this is still current active and working today. So it still makes it a great candidate. The products for choosing to build your store behind today if you want to get started. So just in from eight weeks ago, got one for a Bernie's Mountain Dog. I can wash her in less than five minutes now before it took about 20. So this tells us actually two different things. Number one, that somebody has bought this product and therefore there must be a demand for it. But also number two is it shows exactly what the clear benefit of it. So if it was me, what I would actually do is I'd have two clips side by side. Somebody on the left washing their dog with the traditional method. Somebody on the right with this product. And just clearly illustrate how much quicker and easier it is to do with this product. Kind of like the before and after effect if you like. So back to the comment section then we can see that Susie, this works great, which would indicate she's bought it. Karen says that she bought this. Jim Kennedy says he's got one and it works great. Becca says these are awesome. Nancy says that she bought this. Nikki says that she loves, loves, loves hers. So she somebody's bought one. This person here says best ever. Elizabeth is showing intense and we need this rub. This works so good. I bought one. It works great. This is a great device used it today. Have one, it works great. Use it on my Harrier two nights ago. So it goes without saying. I don't think there's two arguments. So I think we can both agree on this or we can all agree that there's people buying this product and therefore it must be making the money. So let's just go back to the top then and check out the newest comments just to make sure it is still active and working today. So seven weeks, four weeks, not a great start. This will be because of different replies and things. So sometimes it bumps them to the top if people react or leave a reply. So as we scroll further down, as we can see, one week, two weeks, three weeks, five days, six days, one week, one week, one week, one week, one week. So as we can see, lots and lots of recent comments, which is a great sign that it's working today. Let's jump on to their Shopify store then. In fact, if I take you back to the homepage, I mean, it's pretty obvious. In fact, with the name thepupjet.com, they only have one particular product that they're selling and that they're pushing on this store. So we can go to get the Pupjet and take a look at exactly how the product page is set up. So a really nice and kind of simplistic type Shopify store, a couple of custom things then, which I've noticed, which will help differentiate them, set themselves apart from any competition. So obviously everything is color coded towards the same color of the product, which is a nice touch. They have the 60-day guarantee, which is longer than the typical 30-day that everybody goes for. These are custom icons, which they've put on their product images and they also give away a free e-book with every purchase. I've spoken about this in YouTube videos before. If you can give a consumer that extra little kind of nudge or reason to buy the products from you versus somebody else, then it just helps them make their mind up and choose you as the person they want to buy from. So if they were going to buy this from me, who's given away a free e-book, or you, who isn't it giving away a free e-book, then that little extra thing may just help me win the buy. So I really like the look of this Shopify store. It's really clean and crisp and everything's kind of really laid out and visually pleasing and easy to kind of consume all of the information. So in this top section, they have everything that you need to know pretty much about this product in order to go ahead and make your mind up and buy the product that you don't have to scroll down and consume all of this further information below. So at the top then, they have the reviews above the name of the product, which isn't typical. They have a very short paragraph or a couple of sentences put together to really kind of highlight the key benefits and points. And again, this is reiterated in the different bullet points here as well. They have this plus free shipping as well, which is a custom icon. You don't see that on many themes. So that's just a nice touch. They have different swatches as well. Again, with the same icons on, so everything is kind of consistent. Below they have an estimated delivery, so customers know exactly when they can expect to receive the product, which is super, super important.  Actually has their name as well. So Ashley T and actually puts what her occupation is, which is a great touch, because if somebody who is a professional when it comes to grooming dogs is recommending this product, then it must be a good one and it does a really good job of putting across that impression. So they're selling the products for $30 and that does include free shipping, as we can see. If we jump on to AliExpress, a simple search term of water hose gun foam, as you can see, returns many, many results. So I believe this is the exact same product for $10, give or take delivered. The exact same product over here on the right hand side for four pounds, which is what, six or seven dollars delivered. There's another supply here selling it for four pounds, 18. If we scroll down, there's pretty much endless supplies for this particular product. The reason why these guys have been so successful then is they have a really good setup, of course, and they've been quite clever about it. So most people would see a product like this and think of it as like a car washing type product, but they've completely changed the target market and marketed it towards dog owners or more specifically large dog owners to make help washing their larger dogs, especially in the summer months and the winter months a lot easier. This reminds me of a strategy that I saw another company, another business do. I did a review of them a few months ago and basically it was this floppy fish toy that was for children, but what they'd actually basically done is marketed it towards cats. They'd got some cats in a room, put this fish in front of them, took some content, and because the cats interacted with it in such a kind of attention grabbing and fun loving and joyful way, it was really great content for capturing attention on social media and they did a really successful job of selling that product into the millions of dollars range. So this is product number one.  They're selling it for $30 and you can buy it, give or take, for in and around $7, $8, $9, $10 or so delivered. A great product for Facebook with an ideal target market that you can be super specific about and also carries some great profit margins as well. Moving on to product number two, then we have Funny Fuzzy. So this is a big dog drop shipping store I've been following these guys for a while because every single product they come out with, they tend to make a winner. They've definitely got their eye on the ball when it comes to product selection. Before we jump into the numbers then, let's take a look at exactly what the product is. So we can see straight away exactly what the product is. They've got a large, again, a little large dog in there just to fully illustrate who it's for, what it does, the different features of it. And again, the opening scene of it being on a car seat can show exactly the reason why you would buy this product. That was quite a nice touch at the end as well with the dog with the windows open just chilling there which shows that dogs are happy to be in it. That's one of the biggest or most important things that any pet owner would consider when buying something which is whether their dog will feel safe and happy or not using it. Okay, so this went live. This is a post from Tuesday, April 11th of 2023, April 2023, which makes it one day less than a month old today when I record this video. In that time, 24,000 reactions, nearly 4,000 comments and over 5 million shares. So they would have spent quite a bit of money getting that level of viewership on this ad which must mean one thing which is that they're making a profit. So let's go into the comments section then and see what we can find. So this person, I love it, my dog loves it. From one week ago that clearly shows somebody who's bought this product has got lots and lots of reactions as well. It looks great but expensive. I'm going to try it. I'm getting one for my daughter's dogs too. I travel that in myself. Purchased this excellent dogs. Love it, safe and comfy, expensive. Yes, but worth it definitely. I want one of these my kids. There's a lot of people in the comments section having fun with this which is good because engagements mean organic reach. Okay, I will try it out for my two. People absolutely love to post pictures of their dogs by the way in social media which is why the pet niches are so popular when it comes to dropshipping. Must get one. It's on its way but I pushed the wrong color but I managed. So that person went ahead and actually ordered one. If we go back up to the comments section then and let's take a look at newest just to make sure it is still current and active. So it was actually a comment one minute ago, three minutes ago, eight minutes, 23 minutes, 34 minutes, 52 minutes. Let's just open this up. Six hours, 11 hours. So what's that? Half a dozen comments all within the last hour. So to me that shows they're spending quite a bit of money on this and therefore they must be seeing a return for it. I've seen a few comments about how expensive it was. So let's jump onto the website then and take a look. So it's 155 US dollars. It's definitely not a cheap product. However, they help people kind of get over that hurdle of the price by this clearly being stated. So for interest free installments or they can actually get it for as little as $14 a month if they use shop pay and actually have a few sample plans. So I've naturally seen this on a shop if I store before. So it does a really kind of nice job of illustrating what the payment plans are and how to kind of help people get over that price by breaking it up into smaller payments. So all in all a great product obviously which we've seen lots and lots of engagements. I'm going to show you where to source this product or I'm actually going to, we'll talk more on that in a second but what kind of helps double down on why this product has been so expensive is because you will not find this product anywhere else. They're working with a supplier who either specifically made this for them so we can see their badge there in the bottom right hand corner. Let's get a bigger image. So this is a private labeled product. These guys aren't drop shipping one unit at time. They're committing to quantities upfront and I think using a 3PL to dispatch orders for them. So lots of different variants in lots of different colors. A very traditional layout, kind of like a textbook layout. You've probably heard me mention it before. Image or GIF followed by title and heading followed by paragraph. Image or GIF, title and heading, paragraph. So depending on what color you go for then you can get this one which is 155. You can get this one and this one which is 174. I tried my best to find this product. I couldn't find anything that was a double big one like this so it is a very unique product. And I just want to illustrate this. So even when we go into Google and search on shopping every place you see this product featured is from Funny Fuzzy. So we have it there. So we can keep scrolling. We can see that nobody else is selling the same product anywhere at all. There's the single ones however nobody's selling a double one. There's a double one there but that's Funny Fuzzy as well. Again all single, all single. So it is a very unique product that's unique and original to Funny Fuzzy. And so with that being said to kind of wrap the video up I want to touch on that note that when it comes to product selection if you can find a product like this or work with a supplier to produce a product like this that has never been seen anywhere else before then there is no other competition for your product. And one of the biggest battles when it comes to drop shipping is being the best at selling a particular product. That's probably the hardest thing because Facebook has millions of advertisers. Drop shipping is becoming more and more popular for the right reasons, for good reasons because it's a brilliant business model. But what this does mean is that there's higher competition and more people or getting closer and closer to kind of being saturated or you could argue that certain products have become saturated but basically what it means is that the more people selling a particular product the higher the standards or higher your standards have to be in order to be successful. But if you are the only person selling your product then it becomes a whole lot easier. So next time you're doing your product research and you come across something that you have a really good gut feeling about it's an awesome product. See how readily available it is around the web. Go on to Google Shopping. Go on to Amazon, eBay, Alibaba, AliExpress and if you're struggling to find it on those platforms you could be onto a real, real winner. Half the battle on social media is getting eyeballs on and getting attention by putting something new and exciting in front of people they've never seen before. That is a great way to do that. And so with that being said guys that is a wrap on Facebook Ads Friday this week.

Brad we gotta go come on. It's if we're about to be live. Come on. Let's go Come on. Why are you always like this? You're living always pulling me. It's like sit down. We're live in three seconds. I was like shopping and you guys took my way from Chanel and I was literally shopping and I was already recording. You guys What is up beautiful and thank you for being here today. Oh girl Okay, so we're watching some henna videos and if you don't know what henna is then that is understandable because honestly I don't know that much about it either because I have never in my life used it. Would probably not recommend it exactly but we're gonna see what would happen in these videos because I have actually never watched somebody color their hair with henna before. This is totally new to me probably new to a lot of you. It's basically a natural way of coloring your hair. It uses plant extracts to color your hair. We're gonna learn more about it in the actual way of coloring your hair with it today and I will talk to you more about my opinion on it in a second. But why don't we just do it. Let's get it started. Let's watch some people color their hair with henna and let's see how it goes. Let's do it. All right. Our first video is by a girl named plunder bunny. I love it. Love the uniqueness in that name. This is called dyeing my hair red with henna. Perfect. Let's watch it. Greetings boys girls and gender rebels. I'm Penny under us. Gender rebels? Yes. That's me. For a hair adventure specifically a henna hair adventure. Now I've been dyeing my hair my whole life but since about age five the very first time I dyed my hair was actually with henna.  Yes I live for this girl. And that's all natural so what am I doing? This is literally me. You guys can see behind the scenes of me when I'm not on camera. This is what I asked like. I'm just like okay so that is henna. That is henna color which she hasn't known at all. So henna itself is just a plant. It is a leaf that when dried deposits it. It looks like matcha and I love matcha so this is getting me excited. Ridiculous red dye. Henna itself is only red.  What are you talking about? Henna itself started as just red but then they started adding for example the plant indigo which is it's also just a plant and when it's dried it leaves deposit a ridiculous bright bright blue color. So they can make it into all different colors now. So she's mixing with this water hot water. It can result rather catastrophic occurrences especially the ones that have metals and stuff. This is the issue with henna and this is why a lot of hair stylists don't like it.  I've had times where the foils will literally explode like they will become so large they'll almost explode on you which is so concerning but most of the time you ask the client you're like what's going on why is your hair doing this because this is not normal and they're like oh I use henna before and you're like oh so it really gets a bad rep in the hair industry because it's always like an issue for us to try and take it out. You can't color over it. It's just always a problem if you don't know how to deal with it. We're not taught how to use henna in hair school period so it's quite an interesting thing. Those on previously dyed hair can just absolutely break your hair and turn it like green. This is crazy. That's a hair color. It looks like green mud. However I could be wrong because I haven't experimented on this. This seems like so much work. I'm curious to know why these people decide to use henna instead of using hair color like regular demi permanent hair color because henna does not lift your hair. It is basically a demi permanent color. It only deposits color on top of your hair color so you're not going to have to lift it past the color you're at. You can only go darker. You can't go lighter with henna or you can change the tone of your hair color. So henna starts off this ridiculous bright green color and it actually smells very strongly of matcha. So oh I love matcha. You want to have a little bit of acidity mixed in with water. The acidity can be in the form of lemons or limes or vinegar, fresh brewed coffee or fresh brewed tea and I opted for the easiest option in my house which was fresh brewed coffee. You put coffee in with it? Anything that's acidic. This is mind-blowing. This is so strange. You just have to keep mixing the next step is actually letting the henna cure overnight. What? Hold up. So you have to make coffee, mix the s*** up, leave it overnight, then apply it to your hair and I'm pretty sure you have to wait a long time with it on your head. So this is a lot of work to literally not have damage in your hair even though like demi permanent hair color never damages your hair because it's not lifting at all. It's just a positive color. So I think I don't quite understand yet why people go with henna. These people probably don't have a lot of knowledge about real hair color because if they did I have no clue why they're using henna. That might just be me being ignorant and not really understanding this whole thing but that's my opinion. I don't know. But let's keep watching. Let's see. Let's see if we get a little more knowledge about this. So I left mine to actually cure overnight but as long as you leave for two hours it's fine. Okay. It gives you more color if you leave overnight. Okay. Wow.  And you have a lot of hair slash are lazy. Spend a long time searching for your hair. Oh my god. Also look at those. Those are some. With henna as with all hair dye more is better. Sorry. I can't quite pay attention right now.  However, there's some big things on our chests. Anyway, back to the hair. So we're putting this literally poopy mud on our hair and this is going to color it apparently. Red. Make sense to me. Wait. What? Something else to note about henna? It does actually take a few days to cure and that's after you've washed it out. So. Y'all are nuts. I'm sorry.  I don't know about this man. I don't know. This is a whole lot. Your hair has to cure. What?  What happens to regular hair color? I want to know. Five hours is about the minimum amount of time that you want to do it. If you can sleep with it in your hair overnight that would be ideal. Also can we talk about the mess? I want to have this stuff stains. This just in. This is stressing me out. Remind me to never ever touch henna. Ever. Her white bathrooms. Oh. I'm scared for her. Ms. Blunder Bunny. Your chest is wild man. This is what I look like as a female. Just like in busting out of my shirt.  So even if you don't have like a several day window to reserve for henna it should work out just fine. And yeah this was the end result. I am ridiculously happy with it. I think that the color is beautiful. You can see died at the laser because at about. Sorry I'm gathering my thoughts here. I'm trying to figure out what's going on. I'm gonna be honest Blunder Bunny. It doesn't look that different. And for that much work I would expect it to look like whoa. Like vibrant and gorgeous and soft and flowy and shiny. But it kind of just looks like it colored some spots. Some spots no. Some spots are like gray. Some spots are like orange. It looks very uneven. I'm gonna be honest. I just know for a fact if you use like permanent hair color it would be so vibrant and your hair would be so soft. And like reds in permanent hair color are just the prettiest thing ever. Oh like a nice red. There's nothing that feels more special to me. Like a nice ruby deep red. It's really pretty. So I don't know. For me it's that was not worth the effort. But hey we have a couple more videos to watch. Let's see if anybody else convinces me of this henna hair color. But I'm thinking probably not. Okay thank you Blunder Bunny. I'm sorry that I ripped your hair shreds. Love you so much. Live your extra life. All right. Okay so the next video is by Prey's on honor trolls. Another name I can't read. It's not just a weekly occurrence now. Okay this is called how to turn white or gray hair into black natural no chemicals hair dye step by step. Great. So we're mixing the same matcha situation again this muddy matcha which just looks so appetizing to me. I love my matcha. Any of my matcha lovers out there like with a girl. I don't know. Okay so this woman has a lot of gray hair and if you don't already know gray hair is very hard to cover because basically white hair is unpigmented hair. There's nothing inside of it. So you have to replace all the primary colors within the strand in order to get a really pigmented nice even coating on the hair follicle.  That probably doesn't make any sense to you guys who aren't hair colorists but to those of you who are that's what's going on. That actually kind of looks a little bit like hair color like really gross green. I don't understand how that turns orange. That's so like weird to me. So she's basically filling the gray with orange. Wow. It does look kind of fun though. It's like playing with mud. Like I kind of like that. Okay. Okay. So yeah so she filled the hair with orange like I said to give it pigment back. Wow that is very orange. All right so we're now putting indigo on top of the orange in order to turn all of her hair black which seems like this is gonna work.  I mean it's pretty cool that you can do this all with natural plants. Oh my god that stuff looks so bizarre though. Weird man. Wow it's dark. Science man. It's cool. Wow that looks actually pretty good. I'm excited to see what the outcome of this one is. Whoa. Okay it completely covered her gray hair which is pretty cool that a plant can do that. Like that's pretty impressive. But here's the thing. If you're not a colorist you probably wouldn't notice this but with henna you you're not choosing the types of tones that go in the dark color. You're not choosing like hey I want some warmth in there. I want a little bit of cool in there. I want a little bit of red. I want a little bit of this whatever. That's how you formulate hair colors in a professional setting. Like my hair like this is not just blonde like you know as a colorist we don't just call it blonde we call it like an ashy blonde which is you know a color that has more blue tones inside the color mixture. That way it turns your hair more white gray instead of like yellowy white. We mix in more purple and blue tones or one of the other in order to make blonde hair more ash colored. That's because purple cancels out yellow. Basically you can't do that with henna. You get kind of like a one size fits all thing and to me this looks super inky and if you don't know what inky is either this is a very discreet. This is a very um technical video I'm filming today. If you don't know what inky means it's literally like paper with ink on it like it just looks very dense and like there's no shine to it. There's no quality. There's no like I don't know. There's no lust to it. It just looks kind of like black was just put on the hair. It just doesn't look like professional to me. Anyways it does cover gray it's kind of cool. We have one more to watch this one. I saw the thumbnail and her hair looks pretty cool so Crystal Collins is gonna dye her hair red with henna and hopefully this might be the last one and the best one so let's watch. Love it. Love that. Love that. I've got my shirt that I don't really care about even though it's a Dr. Who shirt. Shamey. Dr. Who will be not be happy about this. Okay we're coloring. We're going in. We're doing it honey. Let's see if this is finally a good henna job. So we are going in with that henna again it looks like muddy and that's fine whatever you're into mad whatever you're into. I mean doesn't wear it and so is this girl apparently. I just really want to see the outcome of this. I don't even care. We've learned enough about henna today. I just want to know what happens to her hair. It looks a little more red than other people's. I heard five girl. I heard five somewhere else. Five hours is about you want to do it. Okay so we finally have it revealed. Oh wow. I just washed this out of my hair. You get right afterwards and it should be like a t-shirt. Whoa okay. This is how it looks and I am very excited because this is the color I've been going for for like. Okay that looked really red. I don't know if her settings on our camera are like correct true to color because that is so red but again she definitely missed spots like she says and it looks a little like weirdly weird variations of color going on but whoa. This is how it looks on her. I want to see it in the sun. Show me in the sun. Show me in the sun. Whoa. Okay one kind of very pretty. I'm not gonna lie that looks very nice. You're still not getting the vibrancy you would have gotten with salon hair color. You're just not and you're probably not gonna ever and also she didn't even pick that color like she just wanted red and it just gives her whatever red reacts with her hair. She said she gets a different color every time which is so weird and like aren't you a little scared of that like is that a little like I don't know. All right Crystal thank you for that. It was a little quick little video. I just wanted to see something that was like really bright and vibrant with henna and honestly look decent look decent. So I think what I learned today is that henna is f***ing weird man and I will not be using it anytime soon. I'm basically less convinced than I was before watching that it's a good thing to use your hair. I mean I have to say not a good idea would not recommend just use a demi permanent color.  It just deposits color. It doesn't lift. The thing that breaks your hair off is lifting. It's lifting. I just don't know what the point of henna is and um I don't know and all you henna lovers out there come for me. Come for me honey. I'm ready. Not my thing and if it's your thing go for it. Live your extra henna life if you want to. I don't know. I don't care but anyways you guys don't forget to follow Exmondo on Instagram. Check out Glitterati link below and thank you all so much for watching today. Don't forget to live your extra life and I will see you all next time. Peace.


Alright, some principles for the breakout rooms is number one, do you agree to keep what you hear confidential, because your buddies are probably your fellow colleagues there are still working some of them are still working on clarifying the right issue their their ideal client their offer anything else they might share especially something that's vulnerable so it I'm assuming that you're agreeing you know raise your hand if you are agreeing to keep everything confidential in there and to ask for permission before you share something publicly or even share something with somebody else. Number one number two is that, you know, aim for conciseness in your sharing now you have a certain number of minutes for your turn whenever it's your turn but if you want your your buddies to help you. Now, of course you can feel free to if you're in the exploration stage you might need to talk it out. Okay, if you can use the fact that your, your, some of your friends are here your colleagues are here that they might be able to give you feedback, make the question concise like. Okay, my question is, and you know, what is my easy referral issue and I have these three options which of these three options do you think is more easily affordable so that's a very concise question. The ones who are giving feedback aimed to have compassion, of course, for the person who's speaking and exploring compassion practice compassion and open heart and be welcoming of their process and also be curious, aimed to be curious So compassionate and curiosity, and confidentiality, and from the person who speaking conciseness. So, when you're in the group. The first the first person to go first should be the alphabetical by first name. I figure growing up you're pretty used to going first so.  I will put in broadcast messages into the breakout rooms when it's when it's time to switch. So, with that. Oh, and if you are giving feedback, also try to be concise with your feedback so that you can give time for the person to explore and to reflect back on what you shared. So, with that, I hope you enjoy your breakout experience.
