Bismillahirrahmanirrahim, all praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. As-salatu wa s-salam ala as-sharaf al-anbiya wal-mursaleen, Sayyidina Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi ajma'in. Allahumma al-limna ma yinfa'una wa anfa'ana bima al-lamtana wa zidna al-man. So, mohassaba. Is mohassaba a familiar term? Okay, so mohassaba is taking account of your actions, taking account of yourself. This is like in the 12-step program, taking a daily inventory of yourself. But mohassaba is a very important concept within the spiritual tradition in Islam, and just the idea of working on oneself. The virtues of mohassaba is indicated throughout the Qur'an over and over again, and the downfalls of not taking account of yourself is also brought up in the Qur'an. So, this idea of just having wishful thinking that everything is going well and not tracking progress against your goals in some sort of organized fashion. So, if you want your life to get better, it's not going to happen by chance. It's going to happen by change, by monitoring, looking inwards, and making active changes. Umar radi allahu anhu was a companion of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the notable companion of the Prophet. He said, he said, take account of yourself, do mohassaba of yourself before you're taking account of. So, this idea is absolutely within our tradition from the get, from the start. And what's interesting is there's a lot of data about simply monitoring your behavior and how that has an effect on your behavior, and it's very interesting. So, for decades, we've known just the simple act of monitoring your behavior, whether that be an addictive behavior or just a habit, just the fact of monitoring it is incredibly helpful in changing the behavior. So, there's a couple of ideas that come up in the scientific literature about this, well-established data over the last several decades talking about this. But I want to bring up some important points, interesting points. Number one, when monitoring your behavior, it's just the act of it. It's not about being precise about monitoring your behavior. The simple act of recording is more important than how precise you are or what method you use. So, it's not about being this really precise data-driven process. It's more so about just getting out and doing it and seeing what kind of effect it has. And they've done this on food intake. They've shown that just the act of recording your food intake has been shown to improve people's food behavior. Just the simple act of monitoring body weight has been shown to improve body weight and same thing with exercise levels. And then the point I want to drive across is that simply monitoring itself improves the behavior. It's not that you have to monitor it and then there's a separate process of, now what do I do with that data that I've collected and how do I improve it? There's no second step. Just the monitoring itself improves the behavior. So, when people, let's say people wanting to exercise more, just the simple act of recording their exercise habits resulted in them exercising more. And it also tended to increase the enjoyment of exercise as well. The other important point is that it's not about the goal, the goal behavior. So, for example, somebody that wants to increase their amount of steps, they want to increase their physical activity. It's not like I'm going to monitor this and as I'm getting closer to my goal, that's what's going to motivate me to continue to change my behavior. So, sometimes researchers didn't even give people a step counting goal. They just gave them a pedometer to track their steps and told them to start walking. And just the fact that they were able to monitor, see that number continue to increase, improve outcomes and improve that behavior and help them get to that target behavior. So, bottom line is the monitoring in itself is the goal and the monitoring in itself is success. So, success or failure isn't about changing the behavior. Success is just in the fact of monitoring it. So, when you monitor how many times you engage in an act, you want to look at the fact of monitoring a success and not be judgmental about if you've reached your goal, how fast you're reaching your goal, so on and so forth. So, you want to be non-judgmental and curious and just monitor your goal so that you don't miss out on that important act of monitoring because you've jumped ahead and are getting discouraged because you're not meeting your behavior goal. Okay, and the last thing I'll say before we jump into the text is one of the most irreplaceable things about monitoring your behavior is that you develop connections that are game changers. So, when you monitor the date and time of your behavior, you start to develop patterns like every day at this certain time, this behavior occurs. So, now you have this really important connection of what's going on around that time or what's going on around that date and there might be a simple fix that can help you resolve that behavior. You also want to monitor the location and if you can make connection between the location and your behavior, you might realize every time I come to this location or even come close to this location, this behavior occurs and then it's no longer this huge battle, it's really simple in regard to just avoiding that location. And then you also want to monitor the feelings. So, you might realize that every time you engage in a behavior, there's a feeling associated with it right before that behavior occurs. There's a feeling associated with it. And then you realize that it's perhaps less about pumping the brakes on the behavior and more about figuring out how to resolve that feeling prior to the behavior. So, once people start developing connections between that behavior and what's going on before it or around it, it's really a game changer for them. And then last session, we ended on page 103, so we'll pick up from there. So, it talks about a specific behavior. So, now it talks about something specific to monitor and that's craving. So, it talks about how... And by the way, it's not simply that we monitor our behavior when we're abstaining from our behavior. It can also be monitoring the behavior even if you're engaging in it. And that might be a great opportunity to see what connections are being set up. So, it's not necessarily... So, when you're engaging in the middle of engaging in an addictive behavior and you continue to engage in it, it's still a good time to monitor it. Similarly, if you stop for a period of time, every time that behavior comes back or that desire for that behavior to come back, it's a great idea to monitor that desire of craving and see what's associated with that. Why is that occurring and what can I manage in order to avoid that? So, it talks about on page 103, you're learning a lot about how the sequence from triggers to your addictive behavior unfolds. Now that you've come to understand that your triggers and thoughts lead to your addictive behavior, next we turn to the craving phase, which is the last experience in the sequence prior to making the decision to engage in that behavior. So, when you break the process down and become aware of the triggers, thoughts, and cravings, then the final outcome of it, which is the addictive behavior, when you become aware of that, it doesn't become automatic anymore. It becomes a decision that you can make with your rational brain. Noticing all the sensations, thoughts, and emotions that you experience during cravings is a central part of becoming a self-expert. Cravings are different for everyone. The first step to beating a craving is to take a look at each of the features of the craving. Each of these components, and understand how you experience it. So, okay, so going into how do you experience a craving, because this is the target behavior that we, this chapter suggests, monitoring in order to gain traction. So, it gives a good exercise on 5.3. It says, think about the last time you had an intense craving. So, the last time you actually had a craving to engage in your addictive behavior, Now, the first part of the exercise, try and think about what you were feeling in your body. What was the physical sensation? And it goes through a list of things that you can look at.  Then it goes through the next part of the exercise, which is now try and think about the emotions you experience during a craving. That can be anxiety, excitement, anticipation, restlessness, irritability, and others. And then it talks about, let's identify the thoughts that you experience. So, what are the thoughts that occur right before engaging in the behavior? And those can be, I need it, I have to have it. I can't handle getting sick or not feeling this way. I can't get it out of my head. Once you're able to understand the aspects of those cravings, then the next job on the next chapter is to set up a whole new set of skills of coping with those cravings. Right now, we're simply at a point where we want to just notice everything about them. Notice the components of them to get ready to intervene on them. And then it goes into on page 105, CBT self-monitoring skills. And it says, this is an interesting part. Learning to self-monitor can help you to understand the psychology behind your addiction and begin to control it throughout each day. And it says, most of us are not self-monitoring. Each day. And it says, most of us are not used to thinking about thinking. It can be a little challenging at first. So, sort of looking inwards or being aware of what's going on within us. It can be a little challenging at first, especially since our thoughts often go through our heads so rapidly that we don't notice them right away. But with practice, you can learn to become more self-aware. And once you do, you can start building a set of CBT skills that you can learn to change your thinking and your behavior patterns. Now we're going to go to exercise 5.4. If we can pull up the exercise, it'd be great. Exercise 5.4 provides with a craving monitoring form. When you use this form, you'll identify your triggers, your thoughts, your emotions, and the intensity of your cravings. This is a really, really important exercise. There's apps out there where you can practice this exercise. And there's different versions of this. But if you can, every time you have a craving or a desire to engage in your addictive behavior. So for a lot of people when they start at this, their addictive behavior, whether that be pornography, food, drugs, cannabis, opioids, a lot of them, when they get to the point where they want to stop, it can feel like this mystical force that happens out of the blue. They go through these periods where they don't think they'll ever engage in their addictive behavior again. They're just done with it. They can't even imagine doing it again after this consequence I just faced. They're so fed up with it. They're sick of it. And in their mind, there's this thought that how can I ever engage in this behavior again? I'm never going to engage in this behavior again. And then out of the blue, the behavior comes back and it overwhelms them. And some people will go through this process. It's almost like a delusion for years, the decades. But once we learn to monitor that craving that drives us to use and start making connections with the time it occurs, the place it occurs, and the way it occurs, then we're able to go to another level of this. We're able to really track our addiction and recognize it's not this mysterious force. It ends up once we go through the process of tracking it. Now it starts to become this predictive, reproducible force. You know, like you see a cobra, and they move so strange. It's like you get encountered with and automatically there's this natural sense of fear that occurs, because they move different than us. But when you start to observe their behavior, you realize they have limitations in their movement. And then you start to realize they only get agitated at certain times. And if you get into a certain distance from it, but then more importantly, you start to recognize that they have a tell before they strike. And so this thing that becomes this like overwhelming, confusing threat. When you start to really observe it and become aware of it. You start to learn how to be able to manage it and take care of it. And, and that's what's so important about this that's what this step is, and it can't be, you know, overemphasize how important it is to be able to make these connections. So, using this form, there's a couple parts of it. First, you identify the situation you were in. I'm sorry. The first column is first you write right down the date and time of day that you're craving occurred. Then you identify the situation you were in when you first, when you felt triggered. So what was the date and time, and then you identify the situation. For example, did you experience an internal trigger, such as feeling depressed or low, or was it after an argument, or an external trigger such as attending a place where other people were engaging the addictive behavior or you saw something that set off a chain of thinking.  It's important because if you can break down the thoughts, then you can counteract those thoughts. Once you break down the thoughts you can counteract those thoughts. And also you identify the feelings that came up for you in conjunction with your thoughts. The feelings that came up in conjunction with your thoughts. Finally, you rate the intensity of your craving on a scale, on a scale from zero to 10 with zero being no cravings at all, five being an average and 10 being severe constant cravings. And you want to try to do this as much as you can. So if you can do this at all, even mentally, be aware of it, you'll go far. If you can write it down and complete it on a regular basis, then you can create a pattern and really start gaining traction on this. So you also want to try to fill it out in real time whenever you can. So that the details about your thoughts and the intensity of your cravings are as accurate as possible because the longer you wait, the more there can be mistakes. So by raising your awareness of your psychological experience as it relates to your behavior, you gain knowledge and self understanding that you need to be a self expert, and it really is a game changer at that point. And a lot of ways addiction is a sign of something. It's a symptom of something that's unbalanced within us. It's unbalanced within us. And it's also a symptom of something unbalanced in the family oftentimes. And it's also a symptom of something unbalanced in the community. And something unbalanced in society, when you have a society that's addicted. And when you're able to monitor what that is a symptom of. You can start an important process of healing. You can start a really important process of healing. So it goes into a wrap up to end the this section, it says congratulations you made it through an intense set of exercises and you are well on your way to changing your addictive behaviors. And if you have intimate knowledge of your triggers thoughts and cravings your well positioned to learn to respond to them differently to the cues that led you straight down a path to your addictive behaviors now you can choose to do something else as opposed to have it run on autopilot. So you have to use the self monitoring form regularly and compete all complete all of the exercises. Now the next chapter, you're going to develop a set of skills to cope with the triggers thoughts cravings without turning to the addictive behavior. So let's start in shallow with questions. You can check in.


What's good, George, but Ross back again with another video. So man This go-home show for the Royal Rumble was pretty damn good, man Triple H cook tonight for Monday Night Raw shout out to everyone else apart of the live stream reactions We had a great time. There were some great matches a Fantastic promo segment with CM Punk and Cody Rose my god If that Segment don't hype you up For the Royal Rumble. I don't know what will And we also had to figure out what Seth Rollins future was going to be Since you know, he's dealing with an injury and that's what they started off the show with they started off with Seth Rollins addressing his injury the injury he had Last week when he faced gender mahal and he came out there with a knee brace and It seemed like he was getting emotional Like he started to you know, his eyes started to get a little or a little watery as the crowd Singing his theme song and and chanting. Thank you, Rollins And I like what he did with this promo because obviously this is a very serious injury So he kind of he kind of led into it He he was kind of going in his direction as if he may have to miss WrestleMania it may be going from Wrestling for a while. So he was basically talking about the injury talking about how he has an MCL MCL tear and How you know, he may he's gonna have to give surgery. He's gonna be out for some months maybe three to four months potentially and Right before he said if he was gonna be able to make it for WrestleMania That's when you hear the Imperium music. You have goon. They're everybody's out there with him That's part of Imperium and he walks down to the ring They his henchmen stand outside the ring.   You've been a fighting champion you brought you have brought prestige to that World Heavyweight Championship and I know what that's like because I'm a fighting champion I've brought prestige to this anaconda championship and he said it sucks because it would have you know It would have been a very interesting situation, you know Since you're not gonna be able to make it to WrestleMania because you know, I'm gonna be in the Royal Rumble I am going to win the Royal Rumble match and I was gonna look forward to beating you for that World Heavyweight Championship and Seth said well before you interrupt it You didn't get it. Let me speak what I had to say or say what you know, let you know what I had to say I wanted you to know and wanted everyone to know that I will be there for WrestleMania I will go into WrestleMania as the champion and we'll walk out of WrestleMania as the champion So if you do win the Royal Rumble Then you're gonna have to go through me and I like good this response. He's like all that's great news I love that. That's awesome. I just want you to understand That I'm I'm going to go after your knee. I'm going to go after your bad back I'm going to go after everything. That's not a hundred percent to break you and Take that title from you and his response was alright. I respect that do what you got to do Just remember who you're going to be going after Seth Rollins and going to say just remember who's going to be coming after you go And I loved it. I Loved it. I loved it. It was fantastic. They it just a little tease And it's all still revolving around the Royal Rumble. I love that bro That was so good and then they went right into a segment with the new day because you know They've had beef with Imperium. You got a serious or Kofi Kingston and a serious Serious Xavier Xavier Woods and they brawling before the match to even start that attack team match It got ended in a disqualification They start brawling all over the arena and it ended in a both of them falling through a Table spot and I love the intensity. I love that. They're serious because obviously Lovic Lovic took out Kofi not too long ago a couple weeks ago and Kofi accidentally took out Giovanni So there's beef here and then Xavier is trying to stick up for Kofi I love when they're serious and there was a backstage segment after the brawl. He's like, yo They've gone too far and it's not gonna stop with just them and then he challenges goon third next week on Monday night raw after the Royal Rumble For the Intercontinental Championship, he says I'm going to stop goon third So that should be a good match looking forward to that love what they're doing with the new day love the seriousness I honestly would love for them to have a blow-off match at the Royal Rumble this Saturday because that They have made me interested in new day versus Imperium. They've made me interested in it and I'm here for it Um So let's get to the the meat and potatoes which y'all been wanting to talk about in this particular video This is going to be the talk of the wrestling town all the way to the Royal Rumble see them punk and Cody Rhodes promo they've been hyping it up all week This was since last week. This was everything I expected it to be if you have not watched this promo segment go watch it This is how you build towards a Royal Rumble match This right here. I Want you to understand when you're watching this promo segment watch the crowd The crowd is literally standing up the entire segment No one's sitting down on a heart cam side and they were listening to every single word. I Knew they we were about to get we were going to receive a five-star meal on how they cook tonight Both of these guys are very fantastic at talking on a microphone and selling a match and this was just Equally as fantastic Soon as both got in the ring they shook each other's hand see I'm punk started off He talked about his father He talked about how much he respected him. He talked about his father Wanted him see I'm punk back in the day to look out for young Cody Rhodes And he told him he ain't any any always treated Cody with Respect he never treated him as this person that had this silver spoon in his mouth because he's a his father Was a famous wrestler he treated him with respect and Cody, you know gave him the same respect too He's like you could have treated me so bad because you had been in a wrestling business 10 years prior to And I'm just you know the kid of a famous wrestler didn't know what to do But you treated me with respect and I appreciate that so it started off with pleasantries. They said we're friends and everything But then see him punk turned it up He let it be known. He's like, I know we're friends But when it comes to this royal rumble stuff I'm actively going to look for you and I'm actively gonna do whatever I can to throw you out and I hope you're able to separate the personal and The business side of things when it's all said and done and you can tell the tension starting to kick up And even seeing punk he puts it into a overdrive. He doesn't waste no time He lets it be known.   So that's when Cody was like, alright, since we're doing this Let's talk about that infamous pipe bomb and then see him punk like he used to do with the pipe bomb He took off the WWE logo on the microphone throw it down. He we're here now People they're starting to own on now So he's like that infamous pipe bomb what you said it changed The wrestling scene which it did it shook waves people were inspired by that pipe bomb I was inspired and then afterwards you left and Then that was it You dropped the torch No one else was able to pick it up nor did you care for anyone to pick it up But you knew who picked it up I Picked it up and everything that you said in that pipe bomb. I did so In in the essence will in a sense if we're going by what you just said Then it would only make sense that I'm more seeing punk than you are and I was like, oh That was fantastic Love that rebuttal even basically saying everything you said in that pipe bomb. I actually did You said it I did it I'm more seeing punk than you Fantastic now he taking off his jacket now. We're getting real real personal here They're getting close to each other on the microphone He's like look man. You've carried the company on your back for two years now and You you're trying to finish your story But look in the horizon. What is that? That's a much bigger star Here to take your spot and that bigger star is Me see I'm punk now some could take that as a jab at the rock, too And you can really look at it both ways So I thought that was a very interesting way how he said that there's a much bigger star on the horizon To take your spot. That's me winning. That's valley. It may be the rock. We don't know yet so once he said that Cody responds With it, that's fine that that may be well and true, but when we get to the Royal Rumble It's plain and simple And all the obstacles I got to go through Including you I will go through He dropped the mic And as he walked past he shoulder bumps him like I gotta go through you I will to finish my story to do what I gotta do I will see him pump pulls them back and they have a nice face-to-face They they they get in each other's face. They don't really say nothing. It looks like they're about to throw blows And then they separate crowd gets real amped up Because I you think seeing pumps about to hit them, but they just get real close to each other Don't say a word they go opposite of ways in the ring and see him punk even comes on top commentary for a little bit He said hey, you're winning of the 2024 Royal Rumble see I'm punk. You guys better bet on me.  They were saying this was Fantastic, this is what WrestleMania season is about this promo right here And I said this during the live they have to be the last two That's it. They have to be the last two in the Royal Rumble This story right here is fantastic what they've created. They have to be the last two in the Royal Rumble see him punk Cody Rhodes Cody Rose China finish his story Trying to do the back-to-back years. It hasn't been done in a while Royal Rumble winner winning back-to-back years Trying to finally write the wrongs of last year see him punk Trying to finally finish his story and main event of WrestleMania coming back to the Royal Rumble The same Royal Rumble he left WWE when he was last in ten years ago It's all come full circle both have stories that they need to finish both have real reasons Logical reasons of why they need to win All the main event WrestleMania They need to be the last two in the rest in the Royal Rumble simple as that This was fantastic. I implore you you missed it. You missed anything else on the show watch that segment and you will If it doesn't hype you up for the Royal Rumble nothing else will comment down below. Let me know Did you guys enjoy that promo? Are you guys just as hyped as I am for what? We are about to see in this year's Royal Rumble because this I was already hyped. I'm up there now I am I can't wait. I haven't been this excited for a Royal Rumble in some time. I'm ready I'm ready. Let's get this going. Let me know if y'all feel the same way I do because this was great. I can't wait till Saturday, but I appreciate all of us for you guys shown on channel Road to 150k, and I'm still young speedy you to the wrestling champion world. Appreciate y'all kicking in with me See you on the next one


I wanted to end on a high note because we have a team that's been working on a really interesting project based on the work they've been doing with Steel2. And they're going to end us with a little demo and some lights and maybe some strobe action on something they've created. So I want to bring up to the stage Tim Hess, an engineer at Pivotal, and Jenny McLaughlin from the Senior Platform Architect at Pivotal. Come on out, Jenny and Tim. I won't do that again. Thank you for coming out, Jenny. So we have support devices that are placed strategically around the stage if you're wondering why we were hanging lamps off the corner. And we're going to let Jenny and Tim tell us a little bit about what they've been doing and why we have lamps. Well, thank you for that, Abby. I'm actually an engineer on the Steel2 project. So we've been working to build tools for .NET applications. So, Tim, what was the motivation for your team to develop the Steel2 framework in the first place? Well, the same way that Pivotal has been working with the Java community to develop Spring projects, we wanted to have tools for your .NET applications to solve problems with microservices. So here are some of the examples. In the most recent release of Steel2, we added a client API library so that you can work with Credhub to store credentials like passwords and certificates. So as a .NET developer, I can leverage the same cloud-native patterns such as the circuit breaker for preventing cascading failure, service discovery at runtime, and centralizing all my application configurations, if that's right, right? Absolutely. So that is all completely open source and we recently joined the .NET foundation. Well, that is very cool. You know what else is cool? These light bulbs, so these light bulbs are smart. They allow me to change the color remotely. Spark light bulbs are getting really popular in home automations and among Internet of Things products. So Tim, can we demonstrate how easy it is to use Steel2 and then microservices to change the color of these light bulbs? Absolutely. But rather than just arbitrarily changing the color like you did just now, how about if we work in that new Credhub library? We're going to be running this demo in Pivotal Cloud Foundry, so we've already got a Credhub server available. Oh, that's an awesome idea. We can analyze the strength of a password and convert that strength to our RGB color code, then send that color code to the light bulbs. I think it's probably also a good idea to plug in a circuit breaker here, since this is a traditional systems integration. So that way we have a fallback algorithm if for any reason we can't reach the Credhub server. That makes sense. So let's switch to the demo. All right. So we have a color gradient here. Strong passwords are green and weak passwords are red. Let's start with something a little on the weaker side here, five characters. Not looking like a very complex password. We probably shouldn't use that for anything important. What should we do? Should we get something a little bit stronger in here? Abby, what do you think? Absolutely. We are, it's everyone's attention spans are waning. We need to amp it up a bit. Amp it up. Let's get something tougher. Well, I don't think I could memorize that password, so it ought to be good for a few centuries. Wow. Yeah. Literally it's going to take centuries for us to crack that password and we got green light bulbs. That was fun. So what else could we do with these smart light bulbs and the studio framework? How about if we throw some sentiment analysis at them? So sentiment analysis tools are getting better and becoming more popular. Anything you say can have a sentiment score. For example, after a hotel stay, when asked to give feedback, if I were to say something about my experience, well, that's not what I meant. So that was a neutral statement. We got a sentiment score of 50%, which is mapped to color yellow. Sorry. Sometimes I get a little literal. What I really want to do is to give a positive feedback, right? So something like, I love the staff and food, maybe. Right? Now we get 98% sentiment score. That is a very positive feedback. And we mapped that score to color green. And now if I were to say something negative in the receptionist, we didn't mean to say that. Sorry. She was kind of mean. So now we get some really red bulbs. So if we switch back to the slides, we'll talk you through how we did this real quickly. We take whatever was entered into that form, no matter how silly or basic, we send it off to the Microsoft Cognitive Services, specifically their text analytics API, and we request a sentiment score. That sentiment score comes back as a decimal, which is effectively a percentage. We map that using our scale to a color. And the color to the light bulbs, voila. And cognitive service requires an API key. Obviously, we're not going to put that API key in our source code and upload to a public GitHub repository. So we decided to leverage, you know, config server backed by a private registry to store that API key. And you're still told to retrieve the key at runtime, all right? So how does everyone like our demos so far? All right. Let's do a retro. If you like the demos, please tweet with hashtag CF bulbs right now with all your wonderful compliments. If you don't like the demos, please don't tweet at all. Of course, I'm just kidding. We welcome your constructive feedback as well. So the way this demo works is we're going to reach out to Twitter. We're going to grab the 10 most recent tweets with the hashtag of CF bulbs. We're going to bundle them up, send them off to cognitive services, get individual sentiment scores for each tweet. We're going to average those scores out together, apply the score to the color scale, and send that to the bulbs. We also implemented the service discovery pattern between the Twitter monitor and our smart bulb UI application. Of course, there's a config server to store the location of the sentiment analysis tool. Let's go ahead and switch over to the demo. Yeah. We can hopefully get all your feedback in. We'll see what you have to say. Not bad. Thank you. Thank you. 90%. I'm happy with that. Thank you. That's awesome. So the goal of this demo is for you to see what is possible, and you can do easily as well. If you would like to see more behind the scenes, things like circuit breaker dashboard and how we actually use the spring cloud services to build out the demo, start by pivotal booth for the next couple of days, and we'll be happy to explain all the details to you. If we switch back to the slides again one more time, we have the GitHub location, and you can pull on our code. It's open source. Feel free to do whatever you'd like with it. Have some fun with it. Get a chance to see how easy it is to work with Steeltoe. Yeah. Everybody should download at their house for other smart bulbs, and that way they can detect what's actually going on. Yeah. Yeah. After you have had some fun, you can start to apply these cloud native patterns to your own .NET applications. Things like you can wrap your integration points with circuit breakers in your system or apply all the application configurations, put those things in a config server. All right. To sum up. Thank you so much for coming up. That was awesome. Come on, everybody.


Hezbollah down an Israeli drone on February 26 near the southern Lebanese city of Nabati, the second Israeli drone it claims to have shot down since the group opened a second front with Israel in the wake of Hamas's surprise October 7 attack.Iana statement, Hezbollah set it down the Hermes 450 Israeli drone with a surface-to-air missile. The extent of Hezbollah's anti-aircraft capabilities is unclear, with the group publishing few details about the types of weaponry it has used to target. The Two Drones Hezbollah has not said much about the capacities of the air defense unit because it wants to use it as a surprise in the event of a greater war between it and the Israeli-retired Lebanese Brigadier General Amin Ehotai told the new Arabi the Israeli military said its warplanes had struck Hezbollah air defenses in the Bukhavalli in response to the downing of an Israeli drone by the group. Israel carried out airstrikes in Lebanon's Bukhavalli, killing at least two Hezbollah members in its deepest attack yet into Lebanese territory since hostilities erupted with the Iran-backed group last October, sources in Lebanon said. The violence marked an escalation of hostilities that have been fought in parallel to the war in Gaza.


Welcome to Toffy TV, it is the Everton News Daily. Everton have opened the ballot for season ticket holders and hospitality members to gain a ticket for the Chelsea game on 12 December. 2000 fans will be allowed into Goodersham Park for the Premier League match against Chelsea. Everton opened the ballot today at five o'clock on its set to run until midnight on the fourth Friday, the fourth of December.  It's a move that Denise Barabax and Daill has said is crucial to the season and crucial in the fight against Covid-19. Everton will open the top balcony and the Howard Kendall Glatter Street stand for the game, that's where the fans will be socially distanced. So, a positive step forward now in the season. Liverpool City Council today sanctioned the return of fans to both Goodersham Park and Amfield. Liverpool play Wolves on Sunday and they will have fans in the stadium then and then obviously it's us the week later in the Chelsea game. So, it's going to be good, good for people who are successful in the ballot to get back inside Goodersham Park. It's not going to be a little bit different obviously, but it's the start hopefully of a little bit of return to normality and hopefully sooner rather than later. We're talking 20,000 and 30,000 and then a full-out spacket of Goodersham before the season is out. It'd be fantastic to get in and back the lads for the rest of the season and see people we haven't seen in a while. So, good news today coming out of that one. David Underath has outlined his ambition as well as Everton's ambition to have the best academy in the world. Underath has spoken exclusively to the Everton website. It's on there, the full interview if you want to check it out. But he said that he's outlined his day, spends his time with the 23s in the morning, coaching them. Then in the afternoon he spends it with the academy staff and he does some work in the evening with young players and coaches talking about how long his days are. But it's important to keep improving. He said that himself, Marcel Brands and John Everill are all on the same vision, the same path aligned to make Everton's the best academy in the world. The end game of an academy is to try and produce players for Carlo Ancelotti to use, and if not to use in the first team to sell players to bring money back into the club and to keep that viable. This is something that Brands did very well in Holland, obviously, at Alchmar and MPS Fiso. Hopefully, working together, Everton can produce more players for the first team and, like I say, get bigger fees for the ones, for the lads who they don't feel will make it in the first team. So, if you want to check that out, get over to Everton's website. The full interview is on there with David Underath. Luca Dean, who had successful surgery on damaged ankle ligaments on Monday, the operation went well and Dean is now setting himself a target of being back inside the original three-month delay that was thought for his injury. Obviously, it depends on how it goes, but the operation was good and he's now targeting a return to first team action less than the three months, which he thought. Dean will be working closely with Everton Fiso, Danny Donough, he's trying to get back in time for the off February now, won't it early March? We need them back as soon as possible because we're just not quite the same team when he isn't in it. I'm finally reporting Italy again today, circulating this time that Juventus won't rid of Sammy Cadeira in January. Everton, the probable destination for the 33-year-old. Cadeira had said earlier this week that he was hopefully to see out the remainder of his contract at UV, which ends in the summer, but these reporters are claiming that Juventus would like to see him off their wage bill in January and, like you said, again sighted Everton as a possible destination. So, we'll wait and see. Doesn't quite fit in with Marcel Brander's vision. We'll see whether or not Carlo wants him and he only got to wait for about another four and a half weeks until the transfer window is back open in this country and Europe. So, there you go. That is it for today's news day. Make sure you subscribe, give the video a thumbs up and if you want more videos, join us on Patreon. See you later.


I'll press one if you know the mix. We're going behind him, baby. We're going behind him. I love this mix. I Love that so much.  Dato do it here back with some more Dragon Ball fighters rank matches and this time we are back to the main team just with Jinnemba up on point because that's where I feel he is the strongest with the Jinnemba intro Let's finish off the week with the full intro. I'm trying to is this his Jinnemba.  I'm fine with skipping mine US East Coast 1 BP rankings 88th place not too bad. I guess.  I could have super dashed out Got me with the second light. Okay. I've you know, what's weird is we've been playing Jinnemba a lot But I have not been defending against them. I have not seen too many Jinnembas online Switching I had to switch Had to switch. Can we make it optimal one two three four slide light Yeah, we did make it optimal. That's sick. No, dude My turn. No, it's your turn. I really yay Yama chef. Okay That was cool. I don't know if anybody really saw how close that was All right, I think it's time to get Jinnemba back in here Don't go quitting on me now This time I'm fine with the young Who fine with the longer okie because I had no matter what happens to be tags out or just plays defense We have a beam assist. So I'm totally fine with playing from that range. Love to see it Okay, that's embarrassing. I missed time to teleport pretty heavy. I knew he was gonna down take that's why I was feeling so good about it But yeah, I still miss timed it That combos. Yo, that is gross. Wait a minute. Why did that still combo? I thought I really messed that up LP rankings your zin union dude these BP rankings. We're not ready to go live I don't even know if that does that mean my easy ranking Yeah, watch this ah Didn't get to happen Jinnemba get this guy Okay, it was still funny Still worth doing okay game one went really well for us after we got our groove going That's the power of Jinnemba though. Once you play offense with him You get that going you get the EX sword into yamchis is then it's really worth playing him Let me get the re-jump Sorry guy, I'm really bad at doing that consistently online still and I should not have gone that Wrong key blast. Okay, clearly still a lot to get used to even a week on Dropping it okay Overhead. Oh, no, it wasn't my turn. I thought he was gonna stagger one more time three bars That's probably death if he wants it to be He does not Where are you going with that? Oh, no, I'm so sorry about what just happened. Thank you for the lights Okay, see not too scary in neutral. In fact, I probably should have just started swinging at him Got him with the blade. I'm feeling so good about this dude. Jinnemba's out front. We're going up against another Jinnemba I'm thinking about just kind of back dashing maybe hitting with the 2m That is super risky though. How about we just play that's a good plan as well Nice jump. I'll give it up. I'll give it up That is just kind of cheap too.  I do like that auto combo cross up It's a little slow, but like can you cancel the second hit with a normal teleport? Mmm, that is it. That's something to test dude. I might test it in this live ranked match. Oh All right, let's calm it. I'm a 6m didn't get hit by that. I The lag caught me slipping Not gonna be that am I really the only the 88th best person in East Coast one right now Because that how many people are in East Coast one? I Guess it means like overall. Oh, I wasn't taking How? Drop it. Okay. I deserve it. I didn't know I wasn't taking Okay, we made it we clearly made a big mistake on that one I I could have sworn I was holding the buttons down, but maybe I let go for a second I either way we still have Yamcha with a full sparking and Yamcha is Practically known for making these comebacks He jumped at us. That was kind of smart Yamcha with a big dodge the big rain that what hitbox Is the auto combo putting in work does he get the sliding? He's gonna let us have a decent bit of range to recover from Doesn't matter because at this point I kind of want to Big mistakes being made from me Okay, I don't think I needed to reset. Yeah, I did I Did not need to risk the reset, but I did anyway That could have been one of the turning points as well. Okay try to Drag it back that heavy hitboxes little wire Wow I've locked the wrong way. I thought he was gonna end up on the other side He shouldn't be able to kill us here because he didn't spark But let's be real the hard knockdown is what really matters. How do we react on defense? Is it a low B and overhead? We'll see a dragon That is not how I thought the game was gonna end that is not how I thought the game was gonna end Okay, we can be better though I don't remember exactly what mistake I made that I was like damn that was awful tech. That's right We lost go to do to a tech All right, no tech That's uh, that's that's just one area we can improve on They cross up protection phase that's there and I always stand up. I don't know why I always stand up when I block a beam Do am in the corner he's in range to recover though. I'll press one if you know the mix We're going behind them, baby. We're going behind him. I love this mix.  You got to drop it to learn Speaking of dropping it to learn See what I'm talking about guys. It gets easier. It gets you. You just have to fail over and over and over again And you will learn As long as it's three frames or below if it's any more than that definitely don't go for the reach up Definitely don't go for the reach of it. It's not your fault if you miss it in five frames That's my say if you lose in five frames. Did you really lose? It definitely isn't a bad mentality that No, I just stuck that there was cross-up protection.  I just want Goku out. I think I think that's what I really want I Don't know why I did this if that was what I wanted But the heart wants some pretty complex things right now like a guard cancel that was sick Okay, we actually hit that was not expecting it Let's get it boys sliding in the corner. Okay. Okay. Okay. Oh, no, dude Are we dead? Can he kill here because level one level one is probably death And especially the Super Saiyan 3. No, I forgot about the upgrade Dude, we have such a long comeback ahead of it if we come back or we could go for Shenron. Oh, I was so close I was so close That was the hypers thing that's ever happened to me that I didn't react to at all because I was just too happy I was like, how do I come back? It's gonna be too luck. And then I saw the double Sunday and I was You cannot have served that up better in my opinion. That was the best That felt great I'm getting mixed Wait, he wants revenge. I would be upset too. All I'm saying is maybe this is too far Okay, I think it it looked like he actually I Thought he countered. Okay, I definitely don't want yonked out this early. Oh still feels good Never mind doesn't feel that good Staggered too much. I definitely staggered a little too much. I Do regret does he pop up or does he stay down? What no Kujiji is not that short, bro. That one is a little sus Let's see level three here, please don't I definitely was I Was that doing the most right there I'm down here to the glass storm brah. I promise. I'm not gonna mix you up the same way I definitely am that guy. It doesn't matter if you block because I got a command grab You he was already shook for the fact I was behind him the command grab was just too much Ealing good. I'm feeling great. Oh Janemba, I love this character. I've been saying it all week, but this character is satisfying If nothing else Janemba is satisfying Oh, no. Oh, no, it can't be happening Not like this Not like this, please Here we're dead. Okay. I didn't look at I didn't get a good look at the health, but we were obviously dead That's fine. That's fine Only panicking a little He's really thrown out two ends I'ma go in I had to go in bro. All right. Yeah, I'm just finish this off Get us out of here bro wolf fang this is for the No, we get it. We take the Janemba week off with a win We got it was a rough patch in the middle of the week there But we we saw it the worst of the worst, but we also got the best of the best, you know It's not not too bad We are definitely getting demoted at some point in the future.

The Rocaster Pro 2 beta program is now open and you can get access to some great new features in the firmware update 1.0.5, which is currently in beta. And so in this video, I'm going to tell you about those new features and also how you can get access to the beta program. In fact, let's start with that, shall we? That is simply by going to their registration page. You'll find a link to that down in the description. All you're going to do there is enter your name, your email address and your product serial number. The Rocaster Pro serial number can be found in one of two places. Either it is on the underside of the device itself printed, so you'll see where the sort of visa mount is in the center on the underside. There is a little QR code and then just above that, there's something that looks suspiciously like a serial number. That's your serial number. You can also find it from the front of the device if you don't want to turn it upside down. And from that, all you're going to do is, if I come out of here, the little settings cog wheel just up at the top there. Click on that, click on system, click on information and then view device information. And in there, you'll find your serial number and also your current firmware version that you're running as well. Now, once you've filled out the details back over on the website, you'll just put your serial number in there. Click submit and then you'll get an email from Rode welcoming you to the beta program and giving you information on how you actually access the beta software. And I'll just run through that very similar to what we've just done. In fact, you're going to click on the settings at the top, click on system, click on information, click on view device information. In fact, back to that exact same screen. I could have just stayed there kind of. But then here you'll see in this little window it's going to ask you to basically tap on here 10 times and just tap on that like a secret handshake 10 times. And then it would change from saying information at the top to beta mode. And then once you're in beta mode, you just need to come back out of that menu and click on the check for updates. And then it will check for the latest beta update and then you'll be good to go. So once you've done that, we are literally all ready to go with all of these new features to play with. So there's a few new features and I'll start with the ones that are relating to the USB inputs and outputs. So we have got two USB inputs and outputs on the back. But actually, although there's only two cables, there are actually three separate channels there. The first being Rocaster Pro 2 main, then there's Rocaster Pro 2 chat, which are both on a single cable. And then on the secondary cable, interestingly named Rocaster Pro 2 secondary is the channel that's on there. So those are the three channels. I've got them assigned to these three channels here on the Rocaster Pro 2. So these are the inputs and outputs. So the first thing that has been changed is on the Rocaster Pro 2 main, previously they were sending out a multi-track mix to that channel. And we did have a couple of options. You could either have it pre-fader and post-fader. So a couple of things to talk about here. What do I mean by multi-track? Well, obviously we've got multiple different things that are coming into the Rocaster Pro 2. You could have four microphones, a microphone and a guitar, two microphones, whatever it happens to be. And we've got the USB channels all coming in as well. And then we've got the audio pads here as well, the smart pads, and then also Bluetooth. There's lots of different tracks, lots of different channels in here. Well, previously over at USB, it was sending out all of those tracks individually. So that if you are using this with a DAW, a digital audio workstation, which is basically kind of like a virtual mixer on your computer, then it would send all of those tracks individually to the computer. You'll pick them up and then you could do some mixing or arranging or whatever you wanted to do in your computer. Now what we had, if I come into the settings and then I'll come into outputs and then multi-track, what we had before is we've got the, first of all we've got the mix for what's happening in the recording. So this is when you're recording on the device. But you've also got this USB one here as well. And previously we just had the option of pre-fader and post-fader. And what that means is when it's sending out this multi-track mix, you could either send out all of the raw signals that are coming into the RODECaster Pro and just send them out as a raw signals back out in a multi-track mix, or as multiple tracks I should say. Or that would be pre-fader, as in these are the faders. So before anything's happened with these faders. Or you could choose to have post-fader. Now with post-fader, if you have adjusted levels on here, it adjusts the levels of the audio that is going out into that mix. So if you're going to be doing some post-processing and things like that, I guess you would ideally want none of the processing that you've done on here to be translated across. But perhaps you might do it as well, so who knows. But in any case, those were the only two options we had, pre-fader or post-fader. Well now we've got this third option that's been added to basically just turn that off. And so it's rather than being a multi-track output, it is just a stereo output with all of the things that you've done in here, all of the effects, all of the levels and things that you've set here just going out. So certainly for my purposes, where I'm just sending this out into an application like Ecamm Live or Zoom or Discord or whatever. That's what I want, just a single stereo out. This by the way solves an issue that there was with some applications that didn't really like the multi-track mix. So I know that certain things that work in a browser didn't really like it. Ecamm Live had a slight issue with it, although there was a workaround for that in the settings of Ecamm. But that is what is the first new feature that was added. So then as well as that though, previously the three channels. Oh and by the way, I should also say that you'll see just down below me, we've got the channel names. So there's Rocaster Pro 2 Chat, Rocaster Pro 2 Main, Multi-Track and Rocaster Pro 2 Secondary. If you have just got that stereo output, these will change to be Rocaster Pro 2 Chat and then that second one, Rocaster Pro 2 Main Stereo. So those just down below are the, it's that middle one really that is going to change depending on the output that you've got. So you will actually be able to see in your computer whether you have got that multi-track switched on or off. But the other thing to note about that is if you've got anything that is using this device, so you've got it currently set to Rocaster Pro 2 Main Multi-Track, if you then go into the Rocaster and you change that setting, then anything that you've got using that device as an input or output, it will no longer be there, it might have gone to some other default. So if you do change anything in here, just go and check on your computer that you do have the right thing selected. For example, like in Ecamm, it was selected to Rocaster Pro 2 Main Multi-Track and then when I came and changed in here, it just defaulted to some other microphone. So that's just something to be aware of there. The next thing though that we've got is related to Mix-Minus and this is a really great feature and I know a lot of people have been excited about this. So still in the outputs and this is this routing table that has been talked about quite a lot. Previously, the main channel what did not have Mix-Minus on, the chat channel did have Mix-Minus on and the secondary channel you could choose whether or not you wanted to have Mix-Minus on or not. Maybe just I should explain what Mix-Minus is when you are using a device like this as both an input and an output from, for example, let's say Zoom.  This could be selected as the microphone, but it could also be selected as the output so it is where you're hearing everything because you've got your monitors plugged into it so you want the audio to come out from Zoom and into here so that you can hear it as well. However, what that would do would mean that the audio from Zoom was coming into the device and then going straight back out of the device into Zoom again and what that would mean is the people on the Zoom call would hear slap back so they'd hear themselves back momentarily later. And the same with Ecamm Live, if you're using it with Ecamm Live or something like that for recording videos then if you're playing any audio that is originated from Ecamm it would come into the device and back into Ecamm so there again you would get that kind of slap back, that duplication of audio. Mix-Minus basically takes anything that's coming in on a given channel minus it subtracts it from the mix that's going back so it basically means you just avoid that slap back. And it's important to note as well that you don't actually hear it in your ears as you are monitoring it. It's only the person on the other end that hears it and they'll be telling you I'm hearing slap back and you're thinking I'm not hearing it. Well that's what Mix-Minus is. So with this though now, with those three channels we've basically got the option to turn Mix-Minus on for every channel and so we just come into the channels here so let me just show you how I got into this just in case you are missing it. Click in the settings, click in outputs and then on the routing here and then at the top there you can see we've got the USB1 but I can click the arrow USB1 main that was this is the chat. Next is the secondary and this also applies to Bluetooth I should say as well so if you are connected to Bluetooth and you can see here we've got main or Mix-Minus so we have the option to turn that on and off for any channel but actually it's this routing table they've gone one step further with this and really opened up some great options because we can go into this custom and then this is basically simulating what Mix-Minus is right now as it's set up because this is the USB1 main coming in and you can see these are all the channels that are going out to USB1 so here we've got all of the other channels basically except USB1 that's got a little red cross next to it all of these have got a tick next to it but what if we wanted, we didn't want all of these channels going to USB1 well I could just toggle these off so maybe I'm using my USB secondary as like a chat channel or something like that or I've got a back channel going in Discord or whatever and I just simply don't want that to go out to that I could just easily toggle this one off here maybe I don't want the Bluetooth maybe I've got a call going on or something like that that's another way of having a back channel and I don't want it to go in through that way so that is the way that you do that by the way if it's something where you are actually going to at some point maybe want to bring someone in so if you are using this as like a back channel chat where you're going to want to be listening to people but at some point you might also want to be able to bring them into the show or the live stream or whatever it is you happen to be doing and this would not be the way to do it because you'd want to then be able to toggle it on and off so I've got another way to go about that if you are doing something where it's a back channel that you want to include them in the show at some point and you just want to basically mute them at times and bring them in there's another way to do that which I'll cover in a separate video and link down below but this just gives us really full control over what is being rooted to where now at the moment this is only for the USB channels I understand it's the plan to also introduce this similar sort of rooting for the headphones and the outputs there as well but currently it is just applied to these but as it is, this is a great feature and I'm really excited about this now the next thing that we've got though is if I come back out of here with the virtual faders here so we've got six faders here that are on the device itself and those are represented by these six channels here you can see I'm just talking into the microphone this is the only one that's going up and down here as I move this fader just out of shot you can't even see it but there you go that is what is going on there but we've also got these virtual faders so at the moment I've got one virtual channel and by the way it will only show up the virtual faders that you've got something assigned to so there's only one there at the moment because I've only got one thing assigned to it which is Bluetooth however if I did go into my fader setup so let me just come into faders you can see I've got two spare ones here as well so let's just say for the sake of argument that I was going to add in maybe another input there and I'll click on that come back there you can see now it's added this extra one in as well so you can have up to three virtual faders so one thing that they've done here is if you have got a fader selected then this was as it has always been this one then controls that fader so you can see as I'm turning the dial here it is moving the virtual fader up and down that's nothing new what is new however is if I push and hold this then that actually activates mute so if you have got a channel that you've got selected then you can push and hold this to toggle the mute on and off you can also just do it from here though so this is where you toggle on the mute command and then this is where you toggle on the listen command the listen by the way is that's where you are when I press that all I'm hearing now in my ears I'm not hearing anything else in the mix except what is coming through on this channel so if I'd got somebody talking to me in a back channel and I wanted to maybe there was other people on other microphones they were all talking and I wanted to just listen what was going on in this one channel that is how you would do that maybe queuing up music, maybe doing whatever I'm not sure but that is how you toggle that one on and this one then is the mute button you do have to have that channel selected in order for that to work so you click on here first and then this now is the fader level and then press and hold for the mute so you do still always have that on there anyway it's not a huge shortcut really but it's still nevertheless some extra little functionality the other thing that they've done is with all of these faders when you move a fader down to the bottom so as I move this fader you can see that it's moving down there when it is completely off it does actually change instead of being white you can see that it sort of goes it's actually just a very a white outline with a grey centre so that just shows you that it is completely off if it was slightly up it might still look white and you might think that it was down at the bottom and it was off but actually it's still on a little bit so that just means that when it is right down at the bottom then it will be completely off another thing that they've added is just coming back to these virtual faders is actually when you toggle one of these things so if I toggle the mute you can see it shows a little mute light just down at the bottom a little mute symbol and if I toggle the listen then you can see that now we've got the little listen icon down there as well so it just makes it clear that you've got either one or both of those on because previously it worked in the same way as the main faders you just toggle that one off with the main faders this to be honest I think they should just duplicate whatever they've got going on with the virtual ones because if I just move this up here slightly there this is simulating these two buttons that we've got next to each channel and we've there got the listen button I know I can press that one and I'm just listening to that you can see how it sort of come on with a brighter light and then this one here is the mute button and that is basically muting the audio from there so it's not going down into the mix so what happens though is when I press mute on here we do also get a visual representation up here but you can see it turns the whole of that base there red as I toggle it on and off so just up at the top for that corresponding channel if I toggle the listen you can see it toggles on this little green light however if I toggle both of them on then it actually defaults to just showing the mute so you can't see from up here whether the listen is also toggled on I think that would be better if they kind of replicated something that showed you if one or both of them are on maybe sort of half and half, half green and half red but that is the problem they've solved with this new update here because previously it did the same on those as well it did the same on there as well if you had the listen and mute then it would only show it as red and so it wasn't at all clear because there's no other visible way of showing that by the way these down here if I toggle that on you can see that it actually becomes slightly brighter you perhaps can't see it too well here but you can change the relative brightness of these as well so this is nothing new but it might be something that is useful to you so if you come into the settings into display and then into brightness you've got the brightness of the screen here so just click on that one and then we can turn the knob and this is where we're going to change the brightness of the screen but this one here if I click on buttons there's basically two brightness levels there's either the inactive level and the active level and it's displayed just on one dial like this and basically the end up here is where the maximum brightness is and then where the line starts from is the brightness of it when it's inactive hopefully this should make a bit more sense when I actually do this so I've got the inactive brightness setting and if I turn that down you can see it's turning down the brightness of all of the buttons they're coming up but that is when they are inactive and then the active setting is the brightness of any buttons that happen to be active so that would be like this you can see now that that is standing out a lot more but I can turn the brightness of that one down as well and that is where you adjust those I think it might be useful if the brightness of these bottom ones down here could be turned down just so that you do get that clear sort of distinction between the on and off whilst still not affecting these ones because I don't know if you're like me but I do like all of the pretty lights but when I have the brightness of these turned up then it just means that there's not so much of a differentiation between these whether they are on or off but maybe that's me just being nitpicking but there you go that is another thing that has been added in to just make it a little bit clearer in the virtual faders when things are on or off just like that so that is some of the new features that have been added into the ROKuster Pro 2 beta but there's some other videos all about the ROKuster Pro 2 that are coming up right now so I'll see you in there


The third phase of launching a product is the specific product launch process. And then product managers need to do this GTN, which is go to market strategy and work with sales to understand what is the primary market we need to launch. They also need to train the sales and marketing team. And on top of that, earlier in the customer adoption phase, product managers usually join the customer meetings to do sales, close the sales with customers. So therefore there's a lot of responsibilities in terms of hobby speaking skills and sales skills as well.


What's good with y'all it's your boy Ross back again with another video so we saw the intro clip man I don't even know what to say other than NXT always shows why they are the a show and they showed it this weekend on Wargames and they showed it also again at Survivor Series and I'm gonna give my thoughts and my opinions on both shows I got a chance to watch both shows I didn't get a chance to watch them when they were live I had to kind of catch them like early in the morning because I was busy so I was watching both shows like around two three o'clock in the morning and I was enjoying him not gonna lie it was it was it was enjoyable it was definitely worth the watch for both shows I'm gonna give my opinions and thoughts I'm not gonna go into every single match but I'm gonna go into just highlights of both shows and we're gonna have a discussion right now I'm recording this while raw is on have not even checked raw haven't seen anything that happened on raw I'll probably check it out after I record this and if there's anything noteworthy I'll probably make a video for it tomorrow so let's start with NXT Wargames first and foremost before we get into that epic spot at the beginning of this video I have to I have to give a shout out to the women of NXT man they showed up this was the women's like you know how WWE has women's first hell in a cell match women's first TLC match women's first Wargames match and they knocked it out of the park if you want me to be honest I like this match better than the men's not to say that the men's wasn't crazy and it was entertaining this one just had a better overall story being told in the ring and it was just entertaining man I don't I don't even know what to say it was it was just entertaining on both sides the heels and the faces you enjoyed what was being the type of destruction and carnage they were pretty much doing to each other just for bragging rights you know saying to say we won our first women's wargame match and I will say the most probably like one of the shocking what I would say was shocking I think a lot of people expected the Kodakai to turn heel I don't think they expected it that soon a lot of people were speculating that she would probably turn heel on like the next taping of NXT that's happening not next taping but the next episode of NXT pretty much the fallout episode for wargames and survival series people were kind of speculating that but the fact that she turned heel during the match when it was her time to go out there to help her teammates out and she attacked her best friend Tegan Knox and I don't really know these wrestlers too well you feel me but that made me want to get more invested into their feud because that attack was brutal I haven't seen a heel turn brutal attack like that in a very long while it was brutal and it just kept going and she was actually getting genuine heel heat like people were actually booing her because she was destroying Tegan Knox and that's her friend supposedly K-Fa wise maybe behind the scenes too that's like one of her best friends so I am really interested to see what they do with her character man because they've just created a nice heel that was a nice heel turn and it created a different dynamic in the match because now it was on it was all on the shoulders of Rhea Ripley and Candice LaRae it was 2v4 you feel me how are they gonna win in my mind I'm like they're not gonna win I don't I don't see them winning this match and they pulled it off Rhea Ripley is the next person to take Shayna Baszler's title I believe that she is hella over she was over before she's hella over now and the fact that she ended up and it was such a nice way how they did this little transition choice the end of the match uh Shayna Baszler has her in the I think it's pronounced Kira feudal clutch I could be wrong let me know if I'm mispronouncing the name but I think it's Kira feudal clutch I'm sure I'm butchering it but she had it in the in that submission hold and uh Rhea had some handcuffs and she put applied the handcuffs on her so she couldn't apply the hold anymore and basically hit her finishing move onto some steel chairs very brutal and pinned the NXT women's champion and got a massive pop she was over as hell she's the next person up next woman up in line for that championship and I honestly think you put the strap on her man Shayna Baszler has done a thing she's beating everybody there is to beat I think you put this on her I think you put the strap on her you maybe can get a a couple more another match a quality match but I think the next takeover which I believe is in Oregon if I could be wrong correct me if I'm wrong but the next takeover is in Oregon next year in February she needs to have a championship match and she needs to be the champ because she's over as hell she's doing amazing things down there in the for the women's division and just the women as a whole E.O. Sarai was a standout to them moon salt off the top of the cage delicious she she killed it as well man so I just the women showed out and they did their thing yeah I liked it out of out of the uh two wargame matches it was my favorite one so they killed it great way to start off the show I believe there was the triple threat match um to see who was going to be the number one contender it was entertaining it wasn't the best wasn't the worst um Pete Dunn ended up winning entertaining match to see who's going to be the number one contender for an NXT title at Survivor Series entertaining enough um also Finn Balor and um Matt Rudle match pretty good um I actually like that match better than a triple threat match but uh the right man won Finn Balor one got the dub he needed to keep that heal momentum going so that was cool but the meat and potatoes that you guys want to know how I feel demands wargame match now first and foremost I expected nothing but a fantastic match any match that undisputed error is in no matter who it is all members are undisputed error they know how to entertain they know how to put on great matches and this was just more or less the same what we seen last year in uh last award games they know how to put on great matches and this was pretty much that man enjoyable from start to finish one of the best moments of the night was that pop that Kevin Owens got when he was announced as a surprise guest when he came out in his music hit that pop was amazing haven't seen a pop like that in a very long time crowd was loving it I I even kind of marked out a little bit because I wasn't expecting that and I like it because it makes sense because undisputed did attack him on Monday night raw so he kind of has a beef with him perfect partner for team uh Champa entertaining match it was just it was crazy man table spots everywhere Keith Lee dark horse of the match man the guy can go as big as he is the guy can move love watching his in-ring work fantastic but of course we got to talk about that sick spot that you saw at the beginning of this clip at the beginning of this video I don't know how Adam Cole is even moving all right I don't know how he was going to even be able to wrestle the next night this my man felt it looked like at least 20 feet from the top of the cage through the table bro just just ridiculous such a savage and nasty spot I was literally like holy you know what man bro it was so sick man so once that happened I was like this is a perfect way to end off a pay-per-view I enjoyed it for me I'm gonna give that pay-per-view uh I'll give it an 8 out of 10 man it was a very good show and it had a little bit of a rose but for the most part most of the matches all the matches were pretty good and it was only four matches four matches and you had a fantastic two and a half hours of great wrestling great storytelling looking forward to seeing what happens this Wednesday for sure now let's get into survivor series man let's get it let's just knock this out the park real quick nxt won the survivor series like matches how it should have been it should have been booked like that and they won decisively I believe it was four for nxt was it four or five I believe it was four for nxt two for smackdown one for raw I think I could be wrong but I just know nxt clearly was taken over and I like how they booked that because that's what you want to do you want to build these stars up to the main roster audience so people can be like yo who are these people let me check Wednesday nights that's how you do it and they haven't been doing it for years they will build somebody up just to let them fall when they got to the main roster and I feel like that's been a detriment to a lot of nxt stars the past couple years so the fact that they got their shine got the show out was dope once again women's match started off the main show I didn't watch the pre-show so I really don't know what happened there but the women's match started off the main show and the right team won nxt uh Rhea Ripley was a once again standout people the crowd popped for her she's over what else is there to say I enjoyed that match it was it was kind of sloppy at times because you can there's a lot of women in there and I don't know disrespect but a lot of them are just glorified jobbers there's some really great wrestlers that was on like in the ring but a lot of them from the wrong smackdown side was just glorified jobbers at best so it was you it was it's weird seeing these in-ring technicians from the women's side and then also seeing jobbers pulling off like moves on these in-ring technicians that you wouldn't think happen wouldn't think would be believable so it was just too many women on like on just on all sizes it kind of felt clustered and sloppy at times but for the most part enjoyable I think they do need a dollar back maybe a 3v3 situ 3v3 v3 situation or maybe Ron Smackdown team up versus nxt women next year make it a little bit smaller and more concise because it kind of seemed all over the place but nxt got the dub you had the mid-card championship uh titles on the line oh and I forgot to mention I this was actually my first time seeing the new intercontinental championship uh belt because I didn't watch it when it was released so when I saw it I was like oh this that's how it looks it's it's an okay design I prefer the other belt me personally but it even reminds me of something that like an nxt championship to be honest but I like the other belt because that other belt with the white strap definitely signified uh intercontinental champion and I like the design of that one the old school design of the white belt but um the white person won once again Roger Strong in a sneaky fashion in a smart fashion you know what I'm saying he picked up the victory after uh AJ Styles hit the uh phenomenal forum on uh Nakamura and he threw AJ out the ring get your ass out the ring got the pin got the easy win bro I like it man that's that's smart so that that was pretty dope to see him get that dub um in the match I was actually looking forward to was Adam Cole versus Pete Dunne to me that was one of the top matches of the night they killed it they showed why nxt and that was just like a small simple size they showed why nxt is the the a show the crowd was eating it up once they started like really moving along and they put on a fantastic match I enjoyed that match uh let's get into the Bray Wyatt versus Daniel Bryan I I'm I'm still an advocate of saying the match was booked too soon but I enjoyed it for storytelling because you started to see Daniel Bryan go back to the Daniel Bryan that we remember when he was on the yes movement run and he started going back to that it during like the middle of the match because that was his motivation it was like oh that was giving him strength and it was cool to see the crowd just go into that like it never left and it was a actually entertaining match I enjoyed that match they started to make you believe he had a chance but ultimately right person one the fiend got the dub so I'm not sure if they continue to shoot who knows maybe they do maybe they don't but uh I enjoyed that match that was that was cool I'm still not a big fan of the red lights it's kind of distracting I mean after a while you watch it you get used to it but it's still kind of distracting for me but uh it was it was very good match it's safe to say Daniel Bryan is a face now and the yes movement may come back full force so we'll see what happens with that um oh side note there has been rumors that braves pretty much gonna hold the the championship won for none other than Roman Reigns himself and I hope that's not the case apparently this could be wrong these are rumors anything's uh anything can happen from now to WrestleMania but apparently he's supposed to lose it to Roman Reigns at WrestleMania and I think that would be colossally stupid but it's also WWE so I can see them doing that but if they do that they ruin the fiend they ruin Bray Wyatt and they will destroy Roman Reigns once again because people would not like it it'll just be a rehash of what we was already hoping wouldn't happen again so hopefully that doesn't happen keep your fingers crossed but I wouldn't be surprised anyway so let's get into the men's um match and uh the men's survivor series match that was pretty good not gonna lie it started off slow for me but it was cool seeing people interact once again like I said uh for the uh NXT portion of things Keith Lee man bro he is the dark horse man for real and he was really like he was the guy for this match he was getting such a loud chant and they were chanting his name there was also doing a little oh bask in his glory I like that bro like he was really over and it was good for him to pin Seth Rollins I hope they turn Seth Hill they need to do something he got booed so bad it is crazy how things have turned he got he was getting some Roman Reigns heat even though Roman was getting some heat too he was getting some nuclear heat boys did not want Seth involved in anything and it was dope that Keith Lee got to pin him ultimately Roman Reigns was gonna get ended up getting a dub I really thought they were gonna give it to Keith Lee I think that would have been perfect they would have gave it to him but you know Vince loved him some Romans so Roman ended up getting the dub there but nevertheless that finish was entertaining and there was a two false finishes that I thought it was three count I like how they played that off on commentary had you on the edge of your seat now the match that actually surprised me because I even though it was it had a nice interesting storyline leading up to it it I expected it to be more or less a squash and you already know when I'm talking about Ray Mysterio versus Brock Lesnar no hose bar and I was expecting it to be a squash and actually it was turning out that way until Dominic got involved and when he got involved all the match just got so much more entertaining and they made you believe they were going to win they made you believe Ray was going to win when he when Ray hit uh Brock with the low blow and then Dominic hit him with the low blow and then my boy Dominic man hit a hit the father son duo 619 combo it was so lit and he goes up onto the top rope hits a nice pretty nice uh frog splash man on Brock Lesnar then Ray Mysterio hits one on Brock Lesnar as well and they double pin him Ray pins him and Dominic gets on like on on Ray's back to like double pin him and then he pushes him off he pushes both of them off and that's when I was like uh I think he's gonna lose now but it was you it made you believe he was gonna win and the crowd literally was like yo they were on the edge of the seas because they thought he had lost the championship and they thought Ray had legit won I thought he was about to win too but ultimately 1-F5 and uh well it wasn't 1-F5 he he suplex uh Dominic into another universe and then uh pretty much 1-F5 took out uh Ray Mysterio one two three boom but it was dope and it proves that uh Ray not Ray Brock is he's better with smaller opponents man he somehow finds a way to make it believable that they could actually win and that's the whole purpose so that was pretty cool don't know who else he feuds with at this point we may not even see him to arrest we're probably not gonna see him to uh the royal rumble so I don't know who he feuds with we'll see what happens and probably the most disappointing match of the night goes to the women's triple threat match between Shayna Baszler Becky Lynch and none other than Bailey herself very disappointing match was kind of dead I think partially because the crowd had just expended damn near all their excitement and energy on the last match which was the Brock Lesnar and Ray Mysterio match they expended all their energy they had nothing left this this match had a very good build up but execution wise it didn't really pay off probably my least favorite match of the night and that sucks because you have three talented women wrestlers showcasing why they're the best in it kind of didn't land for me the crowd was kind of dead and I just at that point I was like all right well it's time to end the pay-per-view uh it was a cool little segment of course Shayna she got the dub I thought Becky was going to win this but Shayna got the dub and solidified NXT being the superior brand I believe they had five wins I could be wrong I think it's five or four comment down below I'm not sure but um then NXT ended up prevailing as the superior brand which is the truth not even in kayfabe since it's legit the truth um and then that's when Becky Lynch ended up attacking Shayna Baszler uh putting her through the table uh she got some booze she got some booze man people love the NXT man and NXT was over in any match didn't matter who it was all you heard was NXT NXT chance so but overall for Survivor Series this year I would give it honestly I'll give it a seven it's a solid seven yes there was some low like low points of the night but for the most part solid seven I like this uh Survivor Series better than last year for sure so let me know how y'all felt about Survivor Series and NXT war games did y'all enjoy them which one you like better I think a lot of you guys are probably gonna say war games but maybe something y'all like uh Survivor Series better let me know which one did y'all like more was it Survivor Series or war games man and let's start a discussion down below but I appreciate y'all kicking in with me I'll see y'all on the next one peace
