I'll be back to another one. If you're new to the channel, I am Goldpony on the new car truck SEV reviews on YouTube. And today we're in the brand new 2024 BMW X5 courtesy of Apple BMW in York PA for more information on their inventory. Please feel free to check out the link in the description box below. And so we're in this one today because it has been refreshed for 2024. It is more powerful as well for 2024 and it's an IIHS top safety pick as well, which all that is a pretty good combination for why you would want to test drive one of these things. Anyways, ultimately in this video we would be testing out and going over everything about this one from acceleration to braking, steering field, ride quality, sound system, exhaust clip, all that fun stuff. So having said all of that, what do you guys say? Let's just go ahead and jump right into it. And as always, let's start with pricing. And so essentially there are two different trim levels for the 2024 X5. You got the S drive 40i for 65,200 and the X drive 40i for 67,500. Essentially that's a rear wheel drive for the S versus all wheel drive for the X. But powering the beast is a three liter twin power turbocharged inline six cylinder engine, putting out 375 horsepower at 5,200 RPM, which by the way is a 40 horsepower bump from the 2023 model year. That's pretty substantial. 398 pound feet of torque coming in right around the 1800 RPM, which is a plus 67 pound feet of torque more than the last model year. That's definitely very nice as well. Powers it to all four wheels or rear wheels through an eight speed automatic with paddle shifters and launch control. That's pretty impressive. Zero to 60 time coming in at approximately 5.3 seconds according to BMW. Top speed, 155 miles per hour with MPG numbers coming in at 23 in the city, 27 on the highway. And by the way, that's for both rear wheel drive and all wheel drive taking premium unleaded fuel. So now before we do any kind of fun paddle shifter or acceleration test here in the X5, did want to mention to you guys the drive moods are actually some buttons located just to the left of that shift toggle switch thingy. And they will include eco pro comfort in sport, justing things like the shift points, the throttle response and the steering sensitivity. But so now that we've got all of that out of the way, what do you guys say? Let's go ahead and find a straightaway. Let's test out the paddle shifters here first and let's see how quickly they are going to react for us here. All right, so before we do this paddle shifter test here, I did want to mention to you guys, if you press that toggle switch back one more time, that does give you that full manual shift mode. So it's telling me what gear I'm in up on the digital gauges here. I do have it in sport driving mode as well. Let's do a just quick little paddle shifter test here. Let's go. That's freaking quick, lightning quick paddle shifter. So I just got John driving the 2024 Acura MBX, which is kind of in the same segment basically. That one was 73, this one's right around 80, but those paddle shifters were quick too, but these are quicker. This is insane how quick these paddle shifters are. I'm sick and tired of SUVs having so quick paddle shifters like faster than most cars out there. That was the MBX and that is definitely the X5. These paddle shifters are amazing. But anyway, as to get back full control, I'm just gonna press that toggle switch back one more time that gives back full control to the X5. And let's now find one more straightaway. Let's put the acceleration here to the test with the X5 having full control. And let's see how quickly we can get this one here up to speed. All right, we are in sport plus driving mode. In three, two, one, go. Instant. Oh gosh, love it. This is crazy, man. SUV should not be this quick. I thought the MBX was quick. This thing is dang quick, man. That was a heck of an acceleration. Gonna put a smile on your face. No doubt, plenty of an acceleration to merge it on to the highway or anything like that. That was dang fun. You could feel it in your stomach. Anyways, to go along with that acceleration, as always, braking is equally important. So of course you will find four wheel ventilated disc brakes coming standard on the X5. As far as that 60-zero stopping distance goes, that is going to come in at 119 feet. Which is sports sedan good. I think that's actually the exact same number as the MDX actually. But anyways, let me just touch on the braking feel. It's fine. It's not the firmest braking feel I've ever felt, but that 119 foot number, that is brilliant quite honestly, especially for an SUV, because like I said, that is sports sedan good. Typically with SUVs you get 120s, if not 130s. So 119 feet, that is brilliant for this thing. But anyways, then touching on suspension and handling up front, you're gonna get a double wishbone type front suspension. In the back, lightweight, multi-link, integral rear suspension, front and rear stabilizer bars. As far as ride quality goes, that was one of the first things I noticed. It is an incredibly smooth ride here. I've been hitting so many road imperfections because here in York, the roads aren't the best and the X5 has definitely been absorbing them very, very nicely. So this thing is definitely plenty fine in terms of ride quality. As far as steering feel goes, it is gonna differ substantially, depending upon the drive mode that you put it in. If you want a heavier steering feel, put it in the sport. If you want a looser steering feel, put it in the comfort. But my very favorite part about BMWs for the most part, it's the 10 and two grips on the steering wheel itself are mammoth. They fit my hands perfectly. I absolutely love it. It gives the driver, maybe just me personally, a better feeling of being in control of this thing. So I love the grips in this BMW X5 without a doubt. They do that better than any other manufacturer in my personal opinion. So huge fan of that. So as far as cabin noise goes, it's been relatively quiet in my short little test drive here today. So definitely a serene cabin, no issues there. Touching of visibility, I can see perfectly fine out the back. So definitely not gonna have any issues there. Rain-sensing windshield wipers are going to come standard on the X5 as well. So big fan of that. And if you wanted a head up display like I am currently looking at right now, that goes for $1,100, but it is one of the brightest head up displays that I've seen in quite a while. So I love it. It actually changes depending upon the drive mode that you put it in as well in terms of color and kind of load out as well. I kind of got an RPM indicator if I put it in the sport driving mode. And again, it's super bright. It gives you your speed, speed limit and safety features actually projected onto your windshield there as well. So huge fan of that. But that pretty much rounds out the performance segment of this review guys. Let's now go ahead and take a look at the exterior of our brand new 2024 BMW X5. All right, so here she is you guys, the new 2024 BMW X5 finished in mineral white metallic. In case you were curious of our exact exterior color name, but as previously mentioned, there is a slight refresh for the 2024 model year. Let me know what you guys think about it in the comments section below. But upfront, of course, you will find an active kidney front grill with satin aluminum or gloss black kind of perimeter. And of course, since we have the M Sport package on our particular X5, we are going to be having the gloss black accents throughout the exterior of this one as opposed to the satin aluminum. But anyways, it does look good up front. You do have LED headlights with LED daytime running lights. It looks like slight different design there. Automatic feature, of course, but also automatic high beams. So when you have your high beams on at night and it senses the vehicle coming in the opposite direction, it's gonna automatically dim the back to low beams that when that vehicle is gone, it's gonna automatically bounce it back up the high beams for you there. There is an aluminum front grill that is optional. So I wanted to mention that that's kind of a unique feature. You don't see it on many other manufacturers out there. To the bottom corners there, there are front air curtains then helping direct air around the wheel and tire combination. And front and center on the bottom portion of that front kind of lip, just above the front lip, you will find that adaptive cruise control sensor then as well. But anyways, there are pretty much rounds out the front end of this one. Let's now go ahead and make our way to the side. All right, so but then making our way to the side of this one satin aluminum or gloss black roof rails do come standard depending upon the configuration that you go with. Of course, same thing for the windows surrounds. Those two options, you do have rear privacy glass coming standard across the board as well. Body colored power adjustable side mirrors do come standard. They will be heated with LED integrated turn signals and gotta love the power folding feature on this X5 here as well. But then one thing I wanted to mention those specifics of the X5 is the side skirts and the fender surrounds, they're gonna differ depending upon the trim level that you go with them. The configuration I should say because it's either gonna be matte black or body colored. So if you go with the M Sport package like we have today, it's gonna be body colored. That looks absolutely amazing. But if you kind of go with the base configuration of the X5 all of that is gonna be finished in matte black.  Quite honestly, most SUVs do that, but I will say my personal preference is the body colored finishes because I just think it looks so much better. But anyways, there is some functional ventilation found on the front fenders down below there as well. So always like to mention that, that is pretty cool. And then take a look at the wheel setup 20 inch v-spoke alloys is going to come standard, but there are plenty of different wheel configurations available for the X5, including 20 inch, 21 inch and 22 inch designs, including these M Sport wheels that we have on this one here today. So anyways, that pretty much rounds out the side profile of the X5. Let's not go ahead and make our way to the back. And something else, since we are around to the back of this one all the way up top you will find a body colored kind of shark fin antenna. Just below that rear spoiler with an integrated brake light. Just below that rear window wiper. You do have some nice LED tail lights. It looks like a little different design there as well. They definitely look good. Got some X drive 40 eye badging. At least if you go with the X drive otherwise it's going to say S drive. Then down below you got a little bit of body colored accenting in the middle portion. But one of my favorite things that the X5 has done since I feel like forever is they integrate the exhaust into the rear bumper. So to the sides, integrated dual exhaust outlets with in our case gloss black tips. Otherwise it could be satin aluminum. But also look how beefy these rear wheels are. I just noticed that they look so beefy back here. But anyways, I'm getting off topic. Of course we got a towing package too. That's pretty cool with four and seven pin connectors. But anyways, dual exhaust outlets. So I do believe you guys know what we have to do next. As always here is that exhaust lid. All right, so now since you are around to the back of the X5 when it comes to opening that rear tailgate it is a hands free power tailgate that comes standard across the board. So all trim levels, all configurations, got to love that. But once opened up, cargo capacity comes in at 15 cubic feet behind the optional third row that we don't have with us here today. Behind that second row though, 33.9 cubic feet. That's what you guys are looking at.  So just about exactly what the MDX is. But anyways, 40, 20, 40 split does come standard. So they're going to fold pretty flat into the floor, I like that. I also love the Velar carpeting that comes standard on this thing. I thought that was amazing. There's some grocery bag hooks back there. There's a rear cargo cover. There's LED cargo lighting. You don't always find the LEDs in the cargo area. So I like that as well. And then if you were to lift up underneath of that cargo floor there's actually a nice hydraulic system that keeps it open where you can access the spare tire if you needed it. So I did like that as opposed to the fix of flap. Anyways, then making our way up to the rear legroom for the third row, the optional third row that comes in at 31.2 inches. For the second row that I can actually show you guys, 37.4 inches for reference. I mean even six feet tall. This is how much space I had back there. Of course you got some charging ports back there. You got some rear ventilation. There's a rear center armrest with cup holders. If you wanted rear window sunshades, we don't have them but they are optional for $250. So I like that that option is at least there for people if they wanted it. But I love the speaker covers too. I might as well mention that since we're back here. But anyways, let's now go ahead and make our way up to the front seats. 16 way power adjustable front seats do come standard. And in our particular case, they're finished in a nice coffee finish. So that is what it is called. But overall I like the contrast stitching. Not the very most comfortable seats considering that they are 16 way power adjustable. I think if BMW would have made them some vertical seams there's too many different like awkward pressure points in these seats. But having said that they are plenty adjustable. So you shouldn't have any issues for like long road trips and stuff like that. I'm just saying there are more comfortable seats out there having said that. But anyways, let's take a look at the steering wheel. It is tilt and telescoping. It is leather wrapped. You got the M logo at the bottom since we have the M Sport package with us here today. That's pretty cool. And again, the 10 and two bolsters are the best of any other manufacturer out there in my personal opinion at least. But then making our way to the startup, let me start by showing you guys the key here. This kind of looks like a new key actually as well. Essentially you got your lock button on the front of it. And by the way, if you press that three times apparently it's a remote start. So that's pretty cool. And the rest of the buttons are on the side including that button to pop the retail gate and the unlock button. But it is all keyless entry with a push button start. So all I'm going to do in this case is simply put my foot on the brake and press that silver engine start button located just to the left of that shifter toggle switch there. So once then started up, there is a new curved 12.3 inch digital gauge cluster. Now it was one of the first things I noticed when I got in this one. I liked the new curved digital gauge cluster. I think it looks dang good. But anyways, as always when you adjust the drive modes it is going to completely adjust the look of these digital gauges. So I liked that. And of course it's going to tell you things like the outside temperature, speed limit of any given road and how many miles you have left and to hit empty which fun fact when I first started driving this one it said 517 miles which is actually a very impressive range for an SUV of this size. So 517 miles between Phillips. That's darn impressive. But anyways, digital gauges, I love them. I love the new curved display here as well. But now let's go ahead and make our way to overall interior quality. There is a panoramic moon roof that comes standard on the X5 love that. If you wanted an Alcantara headliner that we don't have with us here today that adds an additional $650. Also love the ambient lighting. There's a ton of different ambient lighting colors that can be adjusted through the infotainment screen here. But BMW always does ambient lighting wonderful. It's always so bright. So I am a big fan of that as well. But one of the coolest little touches that I noticed when I got in this one are the kind of toggle switches for the climate control vents. They're all very texturized. And just behind that you have a lot of geometric shapes kind of built into the trim here. So I love that. I think it's such a cool look and I like the X5 kind of behind that as well just about the passenger side glove box. I like the aluminum trim on the actual glove box handle itself. I like the wood trim detail. BMW always does a wonderful job at their interior quality. There's definitely the case here in the X5. Everything is very minimal now I feel like. But you do have a couple cup holders, 12 volt power outlet, USB charging port, phone charging or wireless phone charger as well I should say. You also have this cool BMW key card. So you actually don't even need your keys. You can actually just use the key card to start this one up. Once it's set up, I don't actually have it set up in this one right now, but that is pretty cool as well. And within the center armrest, you got a decent amount of storage actually with a single phone charging port in there as well. So like the home link controls for three different garage doors. So yeah, interior quality is definitely on point but now let's go ahead and make our way to this new 14.9 inch center infotainment system. You get wireless Android Auto Apple CarPlay of course, Bluetooth and audio streaming as well. You get a factory navigation system and a 10 speaker hi-fi sound system is what's gonna come standard, but there's an optional Harman Kardon sound system that goes for $875 if you wanted to go that route. But we don't actually have that option today. We do have the standard 10 speaker hi-fi sound system which I don't typically get. So I'm kind of excited to try this one out. So having said that, what do you guys say? Let's go ahead and find what's on the radio here and let's test out our 10 speaker sound system that we have with us here today. All right, after further research here, this actually is the Harman Kardon sound system. So I absolutely love it. You can immediately tell that wasn't a 10 speaker sound system. So that was an incredible sound system, ton of bass, ton of clarity. One of my favorite things about this infotainment screen because for whatever reason I couldn't find the volume knob right away but then I remember this is the BMW. It probably has gesture control. So all I need to do is turn up and down the volume is to simply do this. Watch. Turn it up, turn it down. You just use your finger motions and clockwise and counterclockwise motions and it turns up and down the radio. So I love that. I always love that feature. I wish every car had that. But anyways, that was a good sound system. But last thing I want to mention to you guys on the infotainment screen at least is when you do put the X5 in reverse, you will find a rear view camera coming standard across the board. Very high definition, but not only that, a surround view monitor there to the right as well with multiple different angles. So that's pretty cool. But anyways, that as always is going to lead us into safety. And so to start, IIHS Top Safety Pick as I said at the very beginning of the video so that's a very good start but also coming standard, active driving assistant, frontal collision warning, a blind spot monitoring system, lane departure warning and speed limit recognition. Just to name a few. So overall when it comes to my final thoughts I love the new curved infotainment system here. Big fan of that. Also love the acceleration and the paddle shifters. This thing is plenty fun to drive. I love the 10 and two grips on the steering wheel. Like I said, they do that better than any other manufacturer, BMW that is. So huge fan of that as well. Interior quality is 100% on point. Head up display is super bright as well. In terms of room for improvement, this thing can get dang pricey pretty darn quick. I will say that there's so many different options for the X5 and that could be a good thing and a bad thing. It's a good thing because it really allows you to personalize it, make it your own and only basically get what you really want. But then it's a bad thing because it can definitely get quite pricey from the original MSRP on this thing. So take from that what you will. But anyways, let me know what you guys think of the new X5 in the comments section below and that is about it for this one you guys. Thank you so much for watching.

Okay, so we're gonna try some live trade common tree. This is a good sign for us. We've seen liquidity coming in. I'm looking for the cell here. This volume stays low, I'm getting in. Okay, that'll do. I'm in profit target, just above this liquidity. We got filled there, partial profit locked in. We're added here, here we got a second partial. That's good. You see this liquidity being pulled? Okay, there we go. This is beautiful. Bios pulling from the bid. Cell is adding to the offer. Opening the door now. We got filled, we chased it a little bit. Just turning it to a good trade. We've just got this massive area of liquidity. Bad sign here. Selling exhaustion, liquidity adding to the gig. More bad news. You know what, I'm gonna take half of it off. Okay, stopped out. 106.50, not bad. Look at the buyers come in now.


Hello. Good morning. So glad to be back. Good afternoon. Good evening. Wherever you're tuning in from, we are thrilled to have you joining us for another episode of the nonprofit show. Today we're talking about and sharing the top five post campaign strategies. And the only person we can think of to do this is of course, head of coaching at Cosmatch, Benny Merrillus. So we're going to dive into this conversation with you, Benny. Before we do, though, we want to remind all of you, our viewers, our listeners, who we are. So hello to Julia Patrick, CEO of the American Nonprofit Academy, and to me, myself, Jarrett Ransom, nonprofit nerd, CEO of the Raven Group. We are always so very grateful, day in and day out to have the continued support of our very loyal sponsors. So thank you to our presenting sponsors. Those include Bloomerang, American Nonprofit Academy, Fundraising Academy at National University, Be Generous, Your Part-Time Controller, Staffing Boutique, Nonprofit Thought Leader, and the Nonprofit Nerd. If you haven't checked these companies out, we encourage you to do so. In fact, that should be your homework as soon as we're done with today's conversation. But don't do it yet, because you're going to want to hear what our guest has to say. Hey, I mentioned we've done many episodes. In fact, today is 658. And you can find all 657 of them on Roku, YouTube, Amazon Fire TV, as well as Vimeo. But wait, there's more. You can also listen to the nonprofit show wherever you stream your podcast. And of course, today's episode with Benny will be up on these channels and platforms just a few hours after today's live episode that you're here for today. So let's get started into this conversation. Again, Benny Merilis, thank you so very much for joining us. There's a 10 hour time difference because you are joining us from Israel. You serve as head of coaching at Cosmas. Cosmatch, tell us a little bit about yourself and a little bit about Cosmatch. Sure. I'm actually, I think an accidental fundraiser. I started out in the rabbinate and in teaching. And then the synagogue where I was the rabbi had a very small budget for programming. And suddenly, I moved from just being the rabbi to also being the chief fundraiser for the synagogue, learning how to raise money from the same people over and over and over again. So that started that path. I was teaching doing that I ended up in organizational work, programming, communal, and then fundraising full time. I joined the company about four years ago and our company is an online fundraising platform, helping organizations everywhere in the world raise more money doing peer to peer and crowdfunding campaigns. Just fundraising smarter is sort of what we talk about. And so we marry the tech piece with real fundraising expertise, experience and knowledge based in the data, based in the experience and based in the arc of the ask. And that's what we do. My role specifically in coaching is a combination of coaching and consulting. So I deal with the mindset around the fundraisers and their discomfort around some of the tech, and then also helping set up the strategy and the timeline and the execution for their actual campaigns. Fascinating. I love that journey. And I'll tell you why Benny. I think that anyone who's been on the other side of the desk, in your case, you know, the synagogue to and then to try and communicate what it is you need and how you get there. It's super powerful. And I love love love that you said going back to the well going back to the congregation time and time again.  Now I'm even more excited to get you to share with us all of these post campaign strategies that you recommend. We have five and that's a lot to get through. So let's like hammer it in right now, teach us something, Benny. Okay, so we run a lot of campaigns for a lot of organizations and year to year people are coming back and they want to know what we do between campaigns to make the next campaign better, you know, and why isn't it better if we doing it a second time? What happened? And so we've started over time developing an understanding what people need to do to make it better. And so if I step back for just one second, one of the first things I would share is this, every organization for every event in every program and every campaign that they're going to run needs a post campaign strategy and needs to plan that post campaign strategy before they run the event before they run the campaign so that when it comes time to implement and execute, you're not exhausted and too tired. They can actually do what they need to do. So it's really important as a foundational statement. My experience had always been that I was exhausted when it was over. And I wasn't ready or had the energy to now go thank everybody for whatever I needed to do. And so pre planning it was just massively meaningful and powerful. And the system helped me get through my motivation issues. So building good systems and being organized on is really before even get to a specific tip. The goal of the between strategy between campaign strategy is to build a relationship with your current donors, your new donors, and I'll add a third category here, which is your peer to peer your peer fundraisers deepening those relationships also we're going to talk about all those in here. So my first tip for you today strategy number one is to mine your data. There's gold in there. I love it. There's gold. Yeah, it's about that. It's right. I swim inside organizational data all day every day. And what you find in organizations inside their data set when they're starting to talk to people, when they're starting to talk to you and answering your questions, suddenly a lot of more information comes out.  Now you know who you need to talk to. Now you know which executive needs to speak to which donor, which you know, teammate needs to speak to a certain level donor, and you can get really organized really quickly with a structure and a strategy in place from before you launch, and then you're ready to go right after. So just take a quick example. I always sort of break it into sort of groups, take your top 25 to 20% of your donors from your campaign or your event, slice them off. That group now becomes the focus of executive leadership and board leadership for follow up. It should never go to someone who's brand new in the organization. But you only know that because you did the work organizing and setting up everything. And now your follow through is much more respectful, much more honorable, and much more meaningful. And then on top of that, if they're new donors, so then you want to run as fast as you can to speak to those people as fast as you can, right? And so that's only true if you're really organized and you're mining away all the time at that data set. You should always be there. You should always have it sort of open on your screen in a tab somewhere, and you're mining it and working it and organizing it and working it and reviewing it and all the time so that you can get to where you need to get. So that's tip number one.  The concept of getting this pre done.  We're done. You can sit back and relax. And it's like, that is literally the beginning. That you just wrapped up. That's the beginning. All the right. I always say that all the work that happens between campaigns in the middle of the night and no one's watching is why you then get success the next time around. But you're tired. So this is what my example always was. When I did a dinner regala event, I pre-wrote the thank you email and set it in the system to launch and go, you know, an hour after the event was over, right? And people are wondering, wow, how did he do that? Like I saw him running around. He was there. He was busy, right? But as long as you sort of are careful with some of the numbers that you put into that email, you could write it in advance. Thank you to the hundreds of people who attended and for the thousands upon thousands of donate whatever it is and send that out gold. Yeah, absolutely. Okay, well tip number one was pretty ding dang good. How's tip number gonna, how's tip number two going to work for us? Yeah, tip number two, I call thanks a lot and often. People like to be, people like to be thanked. They really do. They like to be appreciated. They like to be reminded of the good things that they did, partially because of that, but also because they want you to remember them, right? And so here's the rule that I learned years ago in a completely different environment from just a mega awesome teacher, which was this, when you appreciate the good, the good appreciates. Cool. Yeah, right that one down. When you appreciate the good, the good appreciates. What happens here is that by thanking people often and consistently and regularly for their donations, right? So they appreciate that you remember them and then when it comes time again to give, they're going to give more and they're going to give more easily the second time. That is true not only for your donors, that's also true for your peers and your volunteers. I'm going to talk more about the peers in just a minute, but let's talk about volunteers for a second. When you thank your volunteers for that work, which no one else can do, at no cost to you, they come back. They come back again and they convert into donors, ambassadors, preachers, evangelists for your organization, all that stops. So when you thank often, you get great success. And the way I like to do it is there's an immediate thank you after a campaign. So you'll break down your list by however you want to do, that's number one. And now you want to thank immediately. And then a month later, you do it again, okay? Because no one's expecting the second thank you. No one's expecting the second thank you. So if you can go into a second thank you and it's a little bit more personal, if you can do that, a month later and all you're just saying is, hey, you know, I still still glowing from that event that we did that you were a part of, and I really just want to thank you again for your gift, right? Julie, I heard you talk about this a couple of times, the BOY because of you, right? If you do that again here a month later, you are solidifying the early portions of a deeper relationship with someone who, if they're a new donor, is never expecting this. And the person who has been your donor who didn't get this in the past is shocked and surprised by the goodness of your sudden generous heart by being so appreciative of all that you're doing. So you bake it in that you're going to thank on a regular basis and because you're now organized because you're scheduling this out, right? So you ran your event, your event ran on December 31, you have an immediate thank you on January 1 or 2 that goes out, maybe that's automated, that's fine. One month later, February 1, it's built into your system. There's a second thank you that's going out to your donors at different levels and then you can go from there, you can continue to do it. You can make start making phone calls, talk to people directly, you know, twice a week, that kind of a thing. All that is built in and baked in to a very sort of gratitude oriented attitude. I love that. I have a viewer that wants to know, Benny, for more personalization should the second thank you also include the gift amount? No. No, okay. No because the good donor, the good donor knows when it has the gift amount in it that that system generated, right? And which is fine, generally speaking. So when you're following up, you know, campaign to campaign, that's one thing. But in just a pure thank you, let's not talk about numbers. This is in motion, let's talk about how this is making you feel about you and how I'm hoping it makes you feel about us. So just get in there. It can be short and tight. It can be a phone call, an email, a text message, a voice note, whatever it is. But it's so personalized in that way. And now there are other tricks you can do to personalize 2,000 emails, but maybe that's a different time. But you know. That's great advice. So move us into number three because what if you were, I mean literally, I would have, I would have been like our guest and customized and done that mail merge tab, you know, insert dollar amount here. So tell us post campaign strategy, tip three. Yeah. Number three specifically is more focused on new donors. When you do crowdfunding or peer to peer, you have a lot of people that are coming to you that just don't know you. They don't know anything about you. But this is something you can prepare in advance for the long term. This is what I'll call the welcome kit. This is now that you have, let's take a crowdfunding situation specifically or peer to peer. So Jarrett reached out to her friends and family to raise money for an organization people gave to an organization they don't know. So what is going to make them give again another time? They don't know anything about the organization. And so you can build a welcome kit that now bridges the gap between Jarrett's relationship with that person and your relationship with that person which you don't yet have that now gives people a information about what you do, talk about your impact, send them some really interesting pictures or videos. That kind of approach digitally in this environment is easy for an email and sort of an email system. The old way might have been a snail mail packet that was sent to somebody's house which still works to some degree today. People don't get normal mail on their own anymore. And so a welcome packet that's printed and sent to them and personalized to a degree can be very powerful and really works well, can be done in advance, does not cost a lot of money, but it shows your interest in them. And as long as they don't unsubscribe you still have a chance to hold on to them. So you build them in to this sort of welcome drip schedule automated system in your email because otherwise if you think about it this way they made a donation now somehow they ended up on your email list. They start getting your newsletters. They don't even know who you are. They don't even know the organization that they donated to. And so here you're stepping into it and you're saying hey you donated to organization. You don't really know us. I'd love the opportunity to start developing and cultivating and connecting with you on a deeper basis. And that is awesome. It just really no one does it.  Right. One more live question. Yeah. And first of all a comment. Exceptional information. From the timeline standpoint how long after the second thank you should the welcome email be launched. So again we're thinking the welcome email is specific for the new donor. So what's your timeline on that? Yeah I wouldn't I wouldn't wait on the second to the second. Thank you. I would drop it in the middle there because person donates to you on January one by January three. They forgot that they donated to you. And if you wait a month. Yeah like. Yeah they're wondering how did how did I get into this. How did I get here. Right. So you go like a week to two weeks. You start to drip with them. You know you do it. If they're a high donor like it does happen. The new donor is a high level donor. So skip the emails. Go call that person right away and make a meeting. Right. Like all that stuff is great but that we're talking about sort of down the train of the donor list that people who opt in immediately to your top 20% and never gave you before you should be running to their house with a bottle of wine thanking them for that gift. Otherwise like they're going to go. So they opened a massive door for you and you have to step through it. So you know so in terms of the timeline that second thank you can still come a month later that's fine. But you want to drip right in the middle there and get this welcome thing started with them right away. And would that be red wine white wine or some bubbly. I'm a red wine guy. So for me it would be red. But you know whatever works you know do some homework on the donor maybe and find out. But but that's sort of how I think about it. Yeah the great questions by the way. So I'm glad you're here and asking live tip for Benny. Tip number four is a long term strategy that we developed in the in house which is we call the ask thank report approach. It's a 12 month engagement cycle with new donors and current donors that basically requires you to ask twice a year and then thank and report the rest of the months of the year. So you're doing thanking and reporting five times for every ask that you're doing in the course of the year. Right. And so it sort of goes like this ask thank report thank report ask thank report thank report ask. And what it does is first it orients you into just a beautiful structure which is great. So you know so it's a once a month not your newsletter email that's going to your donor base outside of that this is focused on them being awesome for being supporters of your organization and it's very much tied to thanking them for the donation that they made and reporting on the impact of the donation that they made the only thing that changes is the medium by which you do it. So it could be email it could be a text message it could be a phone call whatever it is and the voice that you're using in that report. So it could be a faculty member it could be a board leader it could be a beneficiary it might be a kid if that's if it's a kid oriented program you just let people know hey thank you so much for making that donation I'm only here finish the sentence for me because of you right. And so that never happens right people just don't do this the donors are heroes they're valuable the silence that you if you don't do this stuff is not only deafening it's expensive because it's costing you money by not engaging in an easy way we see these all the time now and our content guy will send me when he gets him from organizations how simple these messages are it's just a picture of a kid or a pet or whatever and a brief message finished and that's the whole thing but you can do that every month and you schedule it you know the other week that you're not newsletter is going out on let's say so let's say newsletter is first of the month 15th of the month you're scheduling this you know ask thank report strategy it's built in it's baked into your communications calendar and now you're just simply figuring out okay what message we want to send this month you know what program do we want to highlight that's a lot easier because you're now already in the structure in the space but if you don't build the structure and it's never going to happen it's just never going to happen I love that I think that's it's logical it's intelligent and it's genuine yeah you know it's genuine because everybody wants to know what is happening and the good that has emanated from this this interaction think about the difference of a person who makes a donation on January one one year and every month gets either a thank or report right and then you come around to that next ask with a person who doesn't get that in the interim like major difference like I don't think we can overdose on gratitude right like gratitude gratitude gratitude is such a huge it's free right it's free it's easy it's easy to do and I would say this I'm sorry I cut you up it feels so good to receive it you know it feels so good to be the recipient of that gratitude it does it does and I would say this I think some people might hear this from me and think well that's going to take a lot of people and a lot of time it really doesn't take a lot of people a lot of time as I said it doesn't have to be expensive it doesn't have to be fancy it just has to be and so as long as you're doing it it doesn't have to be a lot like a voice note to somebody is like you know I'm standing here in the summer camp right now and I'm thinking of you because I know you made that about that donation and these kids in front of me are only here because you made that donation thanks again like you can't beat it oh yeah so hard I love it wow Benny I know I think we have time for for one more yeah and I'm like stunned because we've been really really impressed with one two three and four okay wow us with number five number five is a little bit more inside the space of crowdfunding in peer to peer but it what we call it ambassadors or royalty the people who are coming into your campaigns who are not employees of your organization who are not fundraisers we're stepping out of their comfort zone who may be benefited from your organization over time and now they're raising money on your behalf like that's the best thing in the world right and so getting people to do that and successfully so is super important the data shows it's not just cosmet data this is like industry wide data on this is that when people do it a second time they rise twice as much money the second time the problem is only about 15% of the people are asked to actually do it the second time so you're leaving money on the table but when you when you think about what this person has done for you and you think about them for the impact that they've had it's everything changes so let me give you an example as a donor let's say Benny Mariles as a donor is a $50 donor so I think of him that way but as an ambassador or as a peer for my campaign a fundraiser he has a massive network on social media he knows a ton of people people may actually like him he raises 10 grand for our organization right okay so how do you now treat him I just flipped the script for me you know and I and I feel so you started off tip one like let's segment our donors our top 20 but then this strategy is you know the other 80% the ambassadorship that they provide the network the sphere of influence that yeah that just flipped the script yeah so when you view this person as a $10,000 donor effectively for your organization you will treat them like wrote yeah because they've done in a mass just an incredible thing for you so the ability to sort of the way I teach it when I work with organizations and leaders is what it's not my quote but you'll like this one too when you change the way you look at things the things you look at change right famous quote yeah and so now don't look at this person as a donor of $50 look at this person as a presidential level participant in your organization and then you're engaging with them changes your outreach to them changes your interaction with them changes what you invite them to changes and then everything changes because you're now looking at them differently and you're treating them differently that is just beyond and so anything you're sending to a donor right this ask thank report send it a second time separately to just your ambassador list because they had impact too and they should see the benefit of what they accomplish for you as well love it I'm just I'm speechless because of my mind is just like going you know it's like ping-ponging around in there yeah I was going to say you make me sound so simple and I love that you acknowledge that many people question well how many people do I need on my team to make this happen and what I'm hearing you say and I want you to correct me if I'm hearing this incorrectly is it's the systems and the processes that you put in place it's the preparation for the entire year so that once these campaigns launch and they wrap up you already have this wheel spinning is that correct yeah you have to know yourself and you have to know yourself well enough that the day after an event is over you want to just you know disappear into your bed and that may still be true but because you put the system in place to prepare because you know that that's true about yourself so then you're good to go because you automated you built a good system you thought it through in advance and you put it in place and click play before it went live and so that's a that's a just fundraising smarter in all kinds of different ways as I said like with all of the tools that are available digitally for people today as long as they are comfortable enough to step into the discomfort around tech and start to use some of these tools that are available to them a lot can be accomplished by a small number of people in an organization and it can feel like there's a big machine that's operating this organization when it's one person or two people and they just do it and they do it consistently and they do it consistently and they're super important because system P is is huge yes it really is well Vinny Merleys you've been an amazing guest even more amazing when we think about how you've had to stay up late because you're coming to us from central Israel and so thank you so much Vinny I think your journey into being an accidental fundraiser is fascinating and once you shared with us that side of you and where you how you navigated to this it just was magical because I know that you've been on the other side as we said of the desk right yeah yeah thank you I appreciate it yeah yeah it's really cool and and I really appreciate that you would come and and spend so much time Vinny Merleys head of coaching for Cosmatch Cosmatch.com check them out they've got a really interesting product and an amazing website with a lot of different talent I think Vinny you're the second or third person we've had on from Cosmatch and it's been really a lot of fun so we want to make sure that we thank you very very much and I know this is a busy time for you again I'm Julia Patrick I've been joined today by the non-profit nerd herself Jared Ransom we want to extend our gratitude heartfelt so to all of our corporate sponsors Blumerang American Non-profit Academy Fundraising Academy at National University Be generous your part-time controller non-profit nerd non-profit thought leader and staffing boutique these are the folks that have been with us Jared what's the number six fifty eight and you know before we sign off I feel like I want to bestow these upon you Vinny because you are truly a fellow nerd and you have made such a pleasure and an honor you know with six hundred and fifty eight episodes under our belt we've heard it all right and we keep hearing it all but we keep learning we keep growing and we keep hearing new things so thank you my friend for bringing this to us thank you thank you first thank you it's been great you know as we end every episode we want to remind ourselves our viewers our listeners and even our guest Vinny because he's a busy dude stay well so you can do well we'll see you back here tomorrow everyone


Like thousands of teenage girls in those days, the Grimes sisters could not get enough of Elvis Presley. They had seen his latest hit Love Me Tender 14 times. On December 17, 1956, they headed to Chicago's Brighton Theater to see it again. Barbara was 15. Patricia was 13. They left the house at 7.30 p.m. Their mother Loretta Grimes expected the girls might stay for the double feature, but when midnight arrived and her girls still hadn't come home, she began to worry. Two of the older Grimes siblings headed to the bus stop to wait for their sisters. By 2 a.m., it was clear something had happened. A search was quickly assembled. Dorothy Weinert, a friend of Patricia's, had also been in the theater and sat behind the sisters. Though Dorothy left after the first film, she mentioned having seen Barbara and Patricia at the concession stand, seemingly in good spirits. One of the largest citywide hunts in Chicago history followed. Police officers and regular civilians combed the streets looking for the sisters. Adjacent towns and counties got involved and offered their resources to the cause. But as the days passed, the search stalled and law enforcement grew desperate to solve the case. Then random sightings of the missing sisters flooded media outlets. People from all walks of life claimed to have seen the girls in one state or another from as far away as Nashville, Tennessee. This led some to believe that Barbara and Patricia had orchestrated their own disappearance and gone to Nashville to meet Elvis. This theory picked up more steam than expected and Elvis himself took to the radio to publicly address the girls pleading with them to return home. Police had no other leads and could only surmise that the sisters had run away. Loretta Grimes vehemently rejected the idea, maintaining that her girls would never do such a thing and that they certainly would not have left behind the brand new AM radio they received for Christmas. After an exhausting month of loose threads and dead ends, the search stalled out. Then on January 22, 1957, a man named Leonard Prescott spotted what he thought were two mannequins on German Church Road in Willow Springs, Illinois. He did not approach them but instead ran home to get his wife. Together, the Prescots inched closer and closer and found the naked bodies of Barbara and Patricia Grimes positioned awkwardly with Barbara lying face down, Patricia lying face up on top of her sister. Their faces had been damaged by neighborhood animals. At 1.30 p.m., the Willow Springs Police Department learned of the discovery. They immediately deduced that the sisters had probably been on the side of the road since the snowfall two weeks prior. Flurries of suspects were apprehended, the most publicized of which was Edward Lee Bedwell. He confessed to the murders, though there was never any evidence supporting his claim and then he later recanted it. An autopsy on the girls, which could not be performed until they were thawed, revealed that the last meal they had eaten was the dinner before leaving for the movie theater. Such findings proved the Grimes sisters were killed within hours of going missing. Though the official cause of death was listed as murder, the only explanation offered was secondary shock due to exposure to the elements. The funeral was held on January 28, 1957 at St. Maurice Church. Loretta Grimes was inconsolable. The girls were in white closed caskets, each topped with their respective photograph. They were laid to rest at Holy Sepulchre Catholic Cemetery. Later in life, Loretta volunteered at a nearby prison and secured a promise from the police that they would never stop looking for her daughter's killer. In 1989, at the age of 83, Loretta died without ever getting an answer. Though the disappearance and murder of the Grimes sisters went cold many years ago, author and former criminal investigator Ray Johnson might have cracked it open. Johnson claims that a similar incident, the murder of Bonnie Lee Scott, took place in Addison, Illinois about a year after the Grimes case. Bonnie Lee Scott was killed at the age of 15 and eventually discovered naked. The man responsible for that crime supposedly made a phone call to Loretta Grimes and bragged about getting away with the murder of both Scott and the Grimes sisters. Johnson asserts that information about his phone call went unpublished by the media back in the 1950s and also that non-lethal marks on the Grimes sisters bodies around the abdomen were very similar to marks found on the body of Scott. Lastly, Johnson claims to have spoken to a third girl who was abducted with the Grimes sisters but escaped. She was 14 years old at the time and did not come forward out of fear. Charles Lee Roy Melquist was convicted for the murder of Bonnie Lee Scott and sentenced to 99 years in prison. He served 11 years of a sentence before his release and later married and had two children. Melquist was never officially implicated in the Grimes killings. The case of the Grimes sister remains unsolved. However, a Facebook group administered by Johnson called Help Solve Chicago's Grimes sisters murder today has around 2,000 members.


This video explains how to use your calculator to do inverses. You will want to watch the two calculator videos depending on which calculator you have. You do enter these problems differently. So take a look at those calculator videos before you watch this video and hopefully that will help answer any questions on how to enter this on your calculator. So we're going to find the measure of A for the following problems. Be sure that your calculator is in degree mode. So again you want to make sure that you have watched the calculator videos so that you know how to put your calculator in degree mode. I talked about in the last video that the inverse is written with these little negative 1 so cosine and tangent when they are inverses have the little negative 1 in the upper right hand corner. And if we're going to do a problem like number 7 where it says tan of A equals .2638 what we want to do is we want to think of that as the inverse tan of 0.2638 and that's exactly what you enter on your calculator. And depending on what kind of calculator you have you might enter the number first and then the function. Other calculators you enter the function first and then the number. So either way depending on the calculator you have we should get about 15.4 degrees. So we know that angle A is 14.8 degrees in number 7. In number 8 we are going to do the inverse sign of .3974 and that's going to give us the angle measure for A which in this case is 23.4 degrees. And you'll want to pay attention to the directions because usually it will tell you how to round your answers sometimes it will want the nearest tenths sometimes it will want the nearest whole number. So this would be 23.4 if it wanted the nearest degree we would just say 23 degrees. Let me move this up a little bit here so we can see a couple other examples 9 and 10. Cosine of angle A equals 11 over 15 so what we're going to do is on our calculator we are going to enter the inverse cosine and do 11 divided by 15. And that's going to give us the measure of angle A. So again it's important that you know how to use your calculator to get the correct angle measure here and once you enter it correctly you should get 42.8 degrees. So angle A would be about 43 degrees. And in number 10 we are going to do the inverse tan of 16 divided by 11 and so we should get the answer for angle A is 55.5 degrees.


Our panelists today, Drs. Thomas Christensen, Victor Cha, John Park, and Seng Ho-Shin, all agreed that it is within China's strategic long-term interests to restrain North Korea and to rally with the international community to prevent future provocations, which could ultimately destabilize the region and brand China as an irresponsible member of the international community. Now to follow our highlights from today's event. The sinking of the South Korean naval vessel Chanon on March 26 was one of the most destabilizing events in Northeast Asia for decades. As the regional heavyweight, China can no longer continue its traditional approach of playing both sides of the 38th parallel. There has been a real internal debate in China on North Korea policy and it has gone public. There have been academics who are influential, who have not only said in conferences that China's policy on North Korea is problematic for China's own national security interests, they have published this. And basically in a nutshell what they're arguing is Beijing's caution and traditional conservative approach towards problems on the Korean Peninsula given North Korean behavior is allowing North Korea to drag China's name through the mud and harm China's overall diplomatic strategy. The fundamental interest, a question for China is what to do with North Korea and what is their strategic interest? And in that sense obviously they still for the China most important interest in dealing with North Korea is stability and peace in the region. I didn't hear anybody up here ruling out the potential for more North Korean provocations. This was a conventional provocation which in many ways is almost more serious in terms of escalation potential than another missile test. And nobody up here has ruled out the potential for more provocations and I wouldn't rule that out either. Which also I don't think operates to China's advantage.


Hey everybody, this is Brian and welcome to the 6th ye2 tutorial. I wanted to kind of, yeah, tongue-tied there for a minute, wanted to kind of take a step back. Mainly because, well, I formatted my computer. I started all over. I actually dual boot Windows 7 and Ubuntu Linux. And if you've been paying attention, permit me a brief rant, if not, just fast forward for 30 seconds. Basically, I've been on Windows 7 primarily for gaming.  I don't know why, I just didn't like it for any more compared to Linux. But whatever. Point being, Windows 7 kept popping up. Try Windows 10, try Windows 10, try Windows 10. So finally I just, you know what, screw it. I'll just try it. But of course, being the nerd I am, I didn't do an upgrade. I did a clean installation. So I just said, you know, screw it. Blew away the entire partition tables. Everything's gone. Clean hard drive. Reinstalled Ubuntu on Windows 10. Actually, Windows 10 first than Ubuntu. It was incredibly easy. I was really surprised. Not just Windows 10, but Ubuntu. Just making everything dual boot has gotten much easier over the years. So anyways, now resumes the tutorial. If you have been following along and you made this template, our little pet store here, and you kind of go click, everything works, click. Oh, what's this? You know, this is because we have a bare bones installation of LAMP, Linux Apache, MySQL, and PHP. And we need to fix this. So that's what we're going to do in this tutorial. I just wanted you to be aware of how to actually spot these kind of problems before they become problems. So how would we know that? Well, if you go to, and here's our route of our local host pet store. This is our website. You'll see this requirements.php. This is a file you to generates. We can go out and look at this. And it says your server configuration satisfies the minimum requirements by this application. Notice the word minimum. Whoops. There we go. Please pay attention to the warnings listed below. And this will tell you exactly what's going to not work. International extension, ICU extension. Is that international? Pretty sure that is. I should probably read this. Latin languages. Yeah. Okay. And you can kind of, you know, I just Google these things like memcache, you know, this is actually what we need to do. If we go out to that error message, it was gdphp extension for free type or image magic. You need one of those two for the capture, the little thing that you type in stating you're not a robot. So really, I just go out to Google, I say, hey, operate, you know, my operating system is Linux. So I say Linux, install gd, and then boom, there's the direction. So on Nick's craft, here it is. And we're just going to do, and I'm just going to do this real quick, see if we can fix this in real time. If not, I've just had a horrible day. So I will just kick and throw a monitor across the room. All right. So we need to do a studio, obviously. And we're going to paste. Whoops. How in the world did that happen? I'll paste that. We're going to sudo apt-get install php5-gd. I need to enter my password. And it downloaded. All right. Now, if you try this again, you'll see that it does not work. Why? Well, Apache has these things called extensions and so does PHP. And we need to actually restart Apache to get all those extensions loaded back into memory. So let's try sudo service. I'm not even really reading the directions. I'm just kind of winging it here. So I may actually have to go back and read the directions. But we're going to do sudo service Apache to restart. And that should have effectively shut down the Apache service and restarted it. And voila, our caption now works. Now, if you've gotten to this point and it's still not working, I would recommend doing a fresh install of PHP or, and I'll leave this part up to you, you can try the image magic, which I think is a little more involved. I've always just done gd because it's just one command and you're done. But I wanted you to be aware of this requirements document. If we haven't discussed this already, this can save you a lot of headaches, especially when you move from your development box to your production box. If you're going to put this out as a public web server, you may get out to your public hosting agency or your hosting company and find that, hey, they don't have some of these installed and you need these installed before you can continue. So that's really it for this tutorial. I wanted to just say, I appreciate you guys watching. I really love the feedback, but I just don't have the time to go through it all. I just, I have to come to that conclusion and admit that to myself.  I'm by no means the biggest site out there. I don't really want to be. I actually want to be kind of specialized here, but I really enjoy hearing you guys' feedback. So definitely, you know, hit me up with questions and comments. Now, the fastest way to get a hold of me, voidrumbs.com. I should note, my friends are always on me about this. This site and all the tutorials are run by your donations.   But anyways, you click on contact and there's a link to the voidrumbs Facebook group. I get a lot of people that will, you know, just message me directly on Facebook or they'll email me.  And I think that something on my host is actually deleting the emails or somebody's in my mailbox reading my mail because friends have said, hey, I emailed you to get my mail and I'm like, nope. Anyways, you go to the Facebook Voidrumbs group and there's almost 400 people in there ranging from all sorts of languages, PHP, C++, .NET, Java, you name it. So quick, short, easy tutorial. I have to finish setting up my box and patching it and all that good stuff and then we'll get right back to where we left off on this tutorial. Alright, thanks for watching.


You know the saying, I don't.      Yeah.       Whoa, double lung tondra. That was weird.   And you can follow us on Instagram, Twitter for more juice content because we're so full of everything. Oh, today we have a reaction to a highly anticipated trailer for me. I've been looking forward to this one for a while. I'm going to give my reaction before we see it. OK. Wow. First time ever on the channel. The new Noazid and Siddiqui film, Hadi, is what it's called. Which glimpses of this. Yeah, I saw he posted it on his Instagram and I quickly scrolled right by it. I believe it's a tale of a transgender played by Noazid. Anya Arkashyap. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Not directed by Anya Arkashyap. Wait a minute. Are you telling me a non-transgender actor is playing a transgender character? The controversy. It looks like Anya Arkashyap's in it. Not like starring. Will he play a transgender? I hope so. Me too. Anyways, let's just figure out what this is actually about. It's been a while since we've seen it. As funny as that was, there's going to be people who say that.  Exactly.  The man who can think twice without thinking about how much work he's going to do. Why do you want to get rid of him? I was a lyncher in my childhood. I didn't have a limit. I'm a transgender. How is it in the shop? The requirement for life was too high. I don't want to get up.  Will you kill him?  Because of that, I stopped working. I spit on your business. How are you going to kill him? What do you want me to do?  Nobody's going to get a fight with me. I'm not going to give up. I'm scared. A mistake is going to happen. The one who comes to pass the mistake is gone. That was me and you. I am with you. What am I most anticipating in the year of 2023? You just saw it. There's so much I'm anticipating in year 2035. Yeah, but that just went to the top of my list. I didn't love the cut of the trailer though. You didn't? No, I felt like they gave like a lot of the story away as opposed to like all I need to see is Noa's as a transgender killing people. Well, that's true, but I'm in. Of course, but I also, I don't know. We won't know till you see it if they gave too much away. I think you're referring to they killed our entire family. Yeah, well, that and then like this whole progression into it and like, I feel like I kind of saw the mini movie a little bit. I'm gonna see the movie still because Noa's and Anya Rock has. I'm so happy to see how predominant a role Anya Rock has. Yeah, it seems like it at least. Mr. I don't really like acting that much. Hey, if they're just gonna pay me for a couple of days of work, I'm gonna do it, right? And getting to work with Noa's, come on. Of course you're gonna do that. They talk about their next project, hopefully. Yes. But Noa's back in the, his creme de la creme rolls of mass murders. Yeah, mass murderers that are not just hollow, they're deeply complex human beings that he knows how to be them. And I'm, we'll see. I, after I see it, will be disappointed if they gave too much away on the trip. I'm hoping they didn't. And did it say theatrical or did it say Z5, it's going to Z? It said coming or releasing, premiering September 7th. My suspicion is it's gonna be direct to Z. Which, what makes me excited about that is it's gonna be intact. That's the same day I used jaw on. Yeah, but what excites me about it is that the creators were able to do what they wanna do and there was nothing that was censored. Hopefully. Yeah. Cause I bet in a theatrical release, this would have been chopped to bits and given a rating that no one under 18 could see it. Also you definitely don't wanna release on jaw on day. Yeah. In the theaters. Yeah. But nothing else is gonna do. Intriguing, man. I just, it looks like a really intriguing, interesting. Two-dose. Story, yeah. Noa's, he. Who have, they're at the top of their artistic game in every way, so. Yeah. Noa's in an interesting role that has murder where he can really flex his, I don't even know if it's a tespionatic muscles, just his muscles, cause that's what he is. Yeah. He's just every muscle in his body. And anybody who's seen him knows, I mean, everybody, first and foremost, Anya Ragh is a stellar director, but he's one hell of a good actor as well. So it's gonna be fun to watch these two guys play off each other in what is, looks like a very interesting and original movie. I'm excited. It's the love, revenge, and identity of Hadi, a transgender who moves mountains to, to join a gang of criminals. Directed by, read that. Akshat Ajay Sharma. I hope I'm pronouncing that name correctly. Well. Looks interesting to me. Yeah. Two Dosts are in it, so. These Dosts are intrigued.  And Anya Ragh director. And Anya Ragh, yes. Not that this is Anya Ragh directorial, but we just have a bunch that we still haven't gotten to. So let us know for each of them, what should be the next films we should watch if you're excited about this down below.
