I'm Marsha and we are navigating the journey. We're exploring the options and choices for end of life. Navigating the journey is dedicated to exploring the options we have, the choices we have, and we have added people of other faith, other traditions to join us in that journey so we can see not only what we feel as an individual, but what the rest of the community, the different people feel. Today we have two of my new best friends, Father Jack Isko and Father Nick. I am a genius. And you're from the Ecumenical Catholic Church. Tell us first of all, what is Ecumenical Catholic Church? Well, it's a church that's been around for about 20 years now. It's slowly growing throughout the mainland, even in the world. And we have what I call lapsed Catholics that have come from Rome. But we have others that are interested in having a Catholic faith with quite not so... Same doctrine and dog bump, but not a lot of negatives and a lot of positives instead. Oh, very good. Well, first let's... Tell me about you.  I've been in the ordained priesthood for 44 years and I've served in various places. We lived in California for 18 years and I was hospice chaplain there for 10 of that 18 years and another year here in Hawaii. I've also, because I have an MSW as well as my MDiv from my seminary and MSW from University of Hawaii. And so we've served as both priests and social workers. I've worked in mental health a lot at the state hospital for 10 years. And before we went to the mainland, I worked for a brief time at Hawaii State Hospital. Originally, I started out as a school teacher of all things. I taught an elementary school for about five years. And then later I've taught as an adjunct professor at Hawaii Pacific University for 10 years and another 10 years in the mainland at Pacific Union College, which was an Adventist school. Wonderful. Wow. Education, ministry and social work somehow. I think ministry and social work sort of... Absolutely. Absolutely are the same, aren't they? I would agree, yes. Yes. So now, tell me, you're a social worker also? Yes, I am. And an ordained priest and then all of these same things also? I've been a preschool teacher. I also worked for the DOE for five years as a paraprofessional tutor, working with elementary school children. I was a social worker at Sonoma Developmental Center for 16 and a half years. I am an ordained priest. That's not what I think of when I think of priests, even though I've known them all my life. This is absolutely wonderful. You came to us because you have been a part of hospice and you have seen a lot of the end of life people, choices, the ends and outs, the do's and don'ts. So talk to me about hospice and what you've seen with patients in hospice. Well, as I said, for 10 years, chaplain and social worker at hospice of Napa Valley, that's sort of where I got my feet wet, it became a wonderful ministry. I really enjoyed it because when people are able to die at home with families, they're usually happy about that in a good way. And my job was made much easier. I was there to counsel them and help them, but most of the time they wanted to talk. And I think that's really good facing what is inevitable for all of us. Sometimes we forget that. It's all coming for us originally. I think hospice makes the journey towards the other side much easier because they're at home with a family and they're given enough medications so they're not in pain. And it almost, it was a very good experience. And doing the hospice, are there any of them that stand out for you, any patients that don't somehow do the others? Well, I did have, I think about this once before. I had a patient, I won't say her name, but she was elderly and she definitely was dying. And she was in a hospital instead of in hospice. We were trying to get her on hospice and she had advanced directives. We can talk about that in a minute. And the hospital would have honored them. That's what I really want to happen with advanced directives if they pay attention to what the patient wants. But the family was split right down the middle. And half of the family literally was saying, hang on, hang on, hang on. And the other side was saying, let go, let go, let go. And the patient was stuck in the middle. And I kept saying, let's not do any heroic methods. Let's follow her advanced directives and the ones that wanted to hang on didn't want to do that. And I kept going on. And people always say, what happened? Well, she died anyway. Of course. Despite of it. But I think it would have been a much easier journey if they had just honored her advanced directives in the first place. Now, legally, I guess I'm confused here. We have the advanced directive and someone else can override that? Well, I think technically they're not supposed to. And that's why I think that hospitals, which increasingly now, in fact, I found out Straub and it may be true at other hospitals here too, anytime a patient comes in for whatever reason into the hospital, they have to fill out an advanced directive. I wish all the hospitals did that. And I think, by and large, the hospitals honor them. They don't do heroic measures to the patient. There's a big discussion about whether you withhold liquids or not. And they have to decide about that. But almost everything else is followed. They're made comfortable and they're able to die in peace. But sometimes I think more than the hospital is not out. The family gets in the middle. And so this is my idea is when a patient, a person makes out an advanced directive, it should be shared with their family. And the family should know that this is what they want to have happen and not happen both at the same time. Right. Now, so now that we've got all this going on, can the person be transferred to home to hospice or do they have to stay all hooked up to all of that stuff? It is possible if the attending physician, which probably may not be the one that's in the hospital, agrees to it. And also if they already are beginning to, the family is in investigative hospice care, then they can have the patient moved. And that would be nice if that was in an advanced directive too. At the end, I would rather be in hospice than be at home. So you could put that in the advanced directive. Absolutely. I can't think of anybody that would not prefer to die at home instead of in a hospital. But I think the last statistic I read, it was close to 70% of people still die in hospitals. Yeah. And run up the bill. Absolutely. I read that the largest amount of Medicare is for older people at the end of life in hospitals. Now, that's just somehow wrong. Not right. I agree. No.  What's your experience with hospice or have you done hospice? As I mentioned earlier, I volunteered with hospice. My volunteer positions was sending bereavement letters on the anniversary of the individual's death to family members, remembering them. Oh, how wonderful. So you keep in contact with the family. Right. Right. That's great. Do all hospice do that? I don't believe so. I'm not familiar with that. But I would think the majority are beginning to do that now. I've seen it, yeah. That's good. So you would just write these letters and... Right. We had a tracking system that in a given month there were these folks who had passed away and we would write to family. Well, now, locally, of course, we had this issue about when you can allow somebody and when does the state step in and when the church says you can't do this and you can't do that. How do we move to where you are to allowing people this option of choosing to be at home, choosing the time and the hour and what have you? How do we get rid of some of these anchors, some of this stuff that's in the way? Father Jack and I had discussed this at one time and that is when Jack was mentioning earlier having family involved with the creation of the advanced directives. Local families can be more direct with the family member, but if their family members were living on the mainland that wouldn't have that opportunity to be involved, we figured an option would be to do conference calls to include the family member that is on the mainland or in other countries. So when you're terminally ill, now you know you're not going to ever get well, so you're terminally ill, you're suggesting that we have a family get together. I love that. A family get together, a conference call with whomever or now that Facebook live, whatever, so that everybody understands, everybody's on the same page. That is a great idea. That is absolutely a great idea. Is this part of your ecumenical? Absolutely, but I want to give a compliment to the Roman Catholic Church, which I usually don't do. Pope Francis and others have come out with a proclamation saying that patients should be allowed to live, to die as naturally as possible and they should not be involved in heroic measures to keep them from winning.  And that's been very helpful because many Roman Catholics always said, oh, I can't do that. I have to live, live, live, and I can do everything. That is good, because as you know, the Catholic, the Roman Catholic is a martyr religion. It's about the martyrs. It's about the ring. So this is really a move, a major move for the Pope to say that a person should be allowed to... Yeah, and I think he talked about death should be as natural as possible and all these other measures are not natural. It's not allowing death to die the way we should die, not in pain, but as easily as possible. Yes, because to me, at least, I see so many times that they do...  I know they don't mean... but there's medication and the surgery when you know it's not going to work, all of that. I would like to hope and think that being that this is a team effort, because nurses involve the social workers and the staff as well as the medical personnel. You need to take a break, be right back. Aloha, my name is Josh Green. I serve as Senator from the Big Island on the Kona side and I'm also an emergency room physician. My program here on Think Tech is called Health Care in Hawaii. I'll have guests that should be interesting to you twice a month. We'll talk about issues that range from mental health care to drug addiction to our health care system and any challenges that we face here in Hawaii. We hope you'll join us. Again, thanks for supporting Think Tech. Aloha, my name is Danelia, D-A-N-E-L-I-A. And I'm the other half of the duo. John Newman, welcome. We are co-hosts of a show called Keys to Success, which is live on the Think Tech Live Network series weekly on Thursdays at 11 a.m. We're looking forward to seeing you then. Aloha! This is Steve Katz. I'm a marriage and family therapist and I do shrink wrap, which is now going to every other week, all during the summer and maybe forever after.  Have a good time. Do what's fun and take good care of yourself. Bye-bye. Aloha, and we're back with Father Jack and Father Nick from the Ecumenical Catholic Church. And we were talking about hospice and your suggestion of a family get-together to do the advanced directives because I have an advanced directive and all I did was call my daughter and say, you're it, you know? So tell us more about what you think this family gathering to do this directive would be. When we were with the church in the mainland in Napa, California, we had advanced directives both filled out at the hospital where Queen of the Valley, where we normally went. When we came here, we did it a little differently. We got the application from a hospital. We filled it out and we had a family meeting. I'm an only child, so there's not much family to worry about. Nick is the oldest of six brothers and sisters. Most of which are in Hawaii, so we had them together. And we eventually, when it was five, we made copies and they all have copies of it. So I think that helps. The other thing I was saying to you earlier, it would be neat if your attending physician either signed it or there's a copy in the chart. We did that with our attending physician. So Dr. Antio Wong with Kaiser Health, she knows about it and she even said, I would do this when you need it. Now, my memory of hospice with my mother because we had her at home for the last year of her life, there was a chaplain that came regularly and they had an attending physician also that came regularly. And when my mother passed, we had a bedside ceremony immediately. And all of them came and it was the most beautiful moment. And the hospice nurse told me, now when she passes, do not call the police. Do not call the coroner. They just make it horrible. Then it becomes, you know, the bureaucracy and death's supposed to be beautiful. So we called hospice and it was beautiful. Absolutely a beautiful event. The only reason the police should ever be called, in my opinion, and this is absolutely true, I think, is when it's considered an unattended death. Right. But it's been attended by a physician and by the family and who else? There's no reason for them to be involved. Yes. Yeah. So now you're saying just have the doctor sign on also. Would be nice, yeah. Yeah. If the doctor won't just make sure there's a copy in his records as well as in the records of the hospital.  Is it possible to ask for medication to help? Absolutely. And that should be written in the advanced directive too. Use pain medication liberally as needed. That should be in writing. Yeah. And anything else if they want them, some people want to withhold fluids and a person will die more quickly without fluids, but sometimes people feel that's a little too much. That seems cruel, yeah. So they can put exactly what they want. One of the things I do recommend against when they're that far is not to have feeding tubes. Oh. Because patients can be kept alive and be a vegetable for months. Yes, that seems horrible. But families and the individual patient is the one that should be able to make a lot of these decisions. And I would like to see it honored by the hospital, by whoever is involved. Now, let's go back. You said something really exciting. Okay. And that's to talk about the Pope and his directive. Now, is this his thinking? Is it a directive from him? How is that transmitted to the rest of the church? You're right. That's what you're asking. But it's definitely been published throughout the church and all the priests in the world and all the churches that had it to look at it. And it's asking not to do unusual measures, but to let people die peacefully the way the Lord intends to take them home, something like that. And can we get a copy of that? You said it's published. Yeah, I don't think you would have a connoisseur. Vatican news, you could find it. What is said about death and dying? Oh, I love that. I love that. And I can't remember what year. It hasn't been that long ago. No, because he hasn't been Pope that long. I was very excited when that came out. He's thinking. A lot of things that haven't been made into canon law is what he's thinking about. And that's pretty liberal. Very exciting to have him talk that way. It is. It is because that's been a stumbling block locally is that these different religions say you can't do this and you can't do that. And in fact it's part of our quote law because they take a position we can't do this. So I think it's absolutely wonderful to have the Pope say this that we can absolutely see this new modern thinking. And I don't think that's so modern though because the church up to a certain point always and everyone was at home when they passed. It's only with this new medicines that we moved from being home into the hospital. There's another thing I wanted to talk about too. We don't believe in physician assisted suicide. I don't. But there is something called passive euthanasia. A lot of people don't know what that means. What it means is people are giving narcotics to whatever it might be to help alleviate the pain and eventually as the dosage goes up it may hasten death but it's not the direct result of what they've been giving. And so that's why it's sometimes called passive euthanasia. I don't think it's really euthanasia at all. It's making people comfortable. And I think we need to...  That's not what we're doing. This is not what we're talking about. Suicide is when a healthy person makes a decision to end. We're talking about terminally ill people who will never get well, who should be allowed to be comfortable in those last moments. Now that, to me, is what we're talking about. And a physician's oath is not to harm and to make a patient as comfortable as possible. So they will give maybe more narcotics to make them comfortable. They may not hasten the death, but at least the person gets to die without pain. Right. And they get to choose. Right. It should be their choice. That is their choice. It should be their choice before they lapse into something where they can make a decision. Well, I think that's most important that we understand that the patient needs to make this decision. Absolutely. That somebody else can say, well, let's get grandma out of here. We need to understand what we're talking about and that the patient needs to make this decision. The patient needs to be of sound mind that they can make this decision early enough so that you can't say, oh, well, they were just trying to get rid of grandma. I agree. There are some Roman Catholics that I have met who somehow believe because Jesus suffered, they should suffer also. Well, that's the martyrdom. Yeah, it really is. But I've seen these same patients that begin to suffer say, can't you give me something so it's not quite so painful? Yes. Especially when we know, you know that this brain tumor is not going to go away. It's just going to get bigger. I don't mean to get theological, but Jesus suffered once and all for us. And yes, I mean, that's what he said, right? That's the way it's written. This was for us. But the Catholic Church is all the martyrdom. The Roman Catholic. Okay, the Roman Catholic. I'm going to remember the difference. Now tell me where you're located as the... The Ecumenical Catholic Church. Well, right now we have seven churches in the world so we're not really big, but there are divisions already of Ecumenical Catholic. We all talk to one another, but I don't know, human beings seem to differ and sometimes there's splits that occur. But here we have actually seven members and we have a Franciscan order. So that's what we are even more than Ecumenical Catholics. So we meet at our apartment at Queen Emma Gardens once a month for what we call mass and chapter. And then we go to zippies for dinner. I found a long time ago, if you offer food, people will come. You have to invite me. Oh, I would invite you. I like going to zippies. And we pick up the tab too. Yes, absolutely. Only once a month? Yeah, so far only once a month. But we're both chaplains for another organization called Dignity which works with the LBGTQ community of Roman Catholics that can't have it in their own church. And we meet there every Sunday night at St. Mary's Episcopal Church and we're there twice a month. That's on South King Street. Almost to McCully. It's on the Malca side of the street. St. Mary's Episcopal. Episcopal Church. And they have a cute little chapel which was the original church that we meet in. It's perfect. We have about 17 members. Now where is this again? This is every Sunday? Every Sunday. At what time? At 5.30 p.m. At St. Mary's Episcopal Church. At St. Mary's Episcopal Church. On South King Street. And that's for dignity. But increasingly, because people know us, other people from our church that are not necessary LGBT have started coming. And we always like it when I preach. So praise God I seem to preach pretty well. And not long. I'm short and to the point. Oh, very good. Very good. I like that. You keep sitting there and not saying a word. See the two of us could keep talking forever. I'm aware of that. I'm listening. And when something like that occurs in socializing, I'll have to sometimes raise my hand. Raise your hand, yes. Me, I'm here. The conversation more is he's the expert. He's really the one that's seminary trained and had many experiences in lots of denominations. Well, I would like to spend this last few minutes talking about a tradition is not a tradition yet. How we can create a tradition. What you did with the bereavement letters and notes and whatever. So that the person just doesn't disappear. That there is something that the family gets that says we care. We need to create that as a new tradition. I want to see that happen, not just for the ecumenicals but for everyone. I don't know all of the hospice people, organizations, but it just seems such humane thing to do. So I'm going to need your help and I need everybody else's help out there to see that this happens. It just seems like such a good idea. And I thank you both for being here. This has been a real pleasure. I've learned so much and I am going to come to the hospital once a month. Yes. Oh, yes. Definitely call me and I'll tell you which. This month is going to be on the 15th of December. It's usually on a Thursday. Is that a Thursday? The 15th of December, I would like to do that. And I'll give you my address and all that. Quickly a plug for a book and unfortunately I don't remember the author, but it's called Nurse Midwife for the Dying and it covers all of this. Wonderful. Thank you so much. It's been a real pleasure. Again, thank you for joining us and we'll see you next week.


Well good morning all right what a beautiful place huh couldn't believe it when I was driving here yesterday wow what have you've never been here before I want to talk to you about something that's really exciting that's going to really impact all of us whether you're a developer part of a small company part of a big company whatever you are in the next few years 5g is going to impact you personally and your business and I want to talk about so what does it mean this this era of 5g and where does open source come into this let me start by this is probably a slide you've seen it before just to give you an idea of of how this the story of going to software and open source started for us at AT&T about four or five years ago when when we deployed the iPhone in 2007 in the first ten years of the deployment of the iPhone our traffic increased by 360,000 percent majority of our traffic to actually more than 50% of our traffic today is video the traffic certainly has changed quite dramatically and every day we carry this is data as of February 2019 we carry 242 petabytes of data daily huge amount of data and we saw that coming few years ago and what we did about this is to start really disaggregating our network into a control layer and and a data layer we started sort of moving sort of the software and the hardware and trying to understand how to use software not just to scale our network more efficiently but to program our network so we started building this platform that called Ecom and three four years later we worked with Jim and Arpit and decide you know what we want to partner with the Linux Foundation partner with a number of companies China mobile and many other vendors to really put that into open source and today it's we have a very thriving on app ecosystem of over a hundred companies under the Linux Foundation networking umbrella this has really helped us significantly today at AT&T we've deployed on app this is an open source we've deployed at AT&T and we've actually by the end of 2018 we passed 65% of our network being virtualized our target network AT&T 65% virtualized today managed by this orchestration platform this is great so what's next we're starting to see big shifts we're starting to see a shift also not in just now traffic but in the devices we're going to more smartphone devices and we're expected to have an explosion of IoT devices or explosion you know due to the 5G an explosion of the M2M and M2X what this means is that that little device that you probably have in your house it could be a toothbrush or whatever will probably have the intelligence of your smartphone today that couple of dollars maybe a dollar even we're talking about well if that toothbrush has the smart the smartness of your smartphone today can it collect data and send that data to your dentist if they're you know to tell them whether there's something wrong with your teeth or they have cavities etc we're not far away from that we're actually two three years away from that with 5G basically coming in it's all going to be basically possible so there's an explosion shift in the types of devices and the number of devices that are going to be that we will have to connect in the network and the current approach that we have today is really not going to scale to allow us to support that the type of data is also changing we started many years ago with just text and that's gone to voice to images to video and with 5G we're expecting a huge part of the traffic is going to be virtual reality augmented reality video 360 etc starting from text this data explosion is about 50,000 times and that 50,000 times is not something you can grow a network by 50,000 times just in a span of about 10 15 years so we're starting to look at that so well how is the network going to support this change this explosion of data and the shift in the devices and the data most of you have seen the evolution of the network okay 1g you can support you know 2 to 4 kilohertz kilo bits per second you know we use that to its analog we can basically transmit voice with that then we went to 2g and with 2g now you've gone into not just voice you can actually do some rudimentary data now you can have 10 to probably 14 kilo bits per second and now you can start some doing some some rudimentary texting and voice and then you go to you go to 3g and in 3g we started seeing sort of a movement from voice and data to doing more data than we've ever done before we can probably support something like two three megabits per second of data but really the big revolution really happened with 4g and that data became video and that really gave birth to a lot of companies that even in existence today we would never be able to do streaming video as one example if it wasn't a 4g and LTE and I think what you're seeing in the 5g this is really a paradigm shift and this is why 5g is so important because when you really put together 5g and what we heard earlier today about edge compute you put that smartness at the edge and you increase the speed of the access really what you end up with a real-time network what does that mean a real-time network means that you can now do the compute the intelligence the processing in the network just as fast as you can have it in the device you have an enormous large amount of intelligence sitting just at your fingertips wherever you are and that's why this is really a big deal 5g sort of allow us to operate at spectrum and we've talked about millimeter wave spectrum what does that mean is that you're now operating at spectrum about 24 gigahertz per second gigahertz or above that kind of spectrum that kind of frequencies really allow us to do sort of this tremendous bandwidth in that type of frequencies so you see us moving towards 5g a millimeter wave very quickly as we deploy 5g at a scale globally this also means that latency is going to be reduced we're talking about 1 to 2 millisecond latency for 5g and now when you marry that with edge compute and really trying to put GPUs and other high-performance compute at the edge then you're looking at round speed round trip type of compute and processing of something like maybe 10 to 20 millisecond now compare that with a hundred to 200 milliseconds that you'll basically get today and that really trying to drive a paradigm shifts in the type of application you can run now some of these applications are pretty obvious autonomous vehicles autonomous vehicles can never be scalable and mainstream without really the advent of 5g and edge compute without that real-time network to be able to collapse and process data across multiple cars and do it right in real-time to avoid crash to you know manage the traffic you need that real-time network all the way to autonomous drones we started the trial autonomous drones without a captain and with video capability that can help us we were talking about AI earlier today Jim was having a session on AI but we're applying AI in the network today in the network and one place we're applying it we are feeding drones with visual capabilities to go up and tell us whether our cells have a problem or not whether it's dirt one of the number one problem with all cell sites is dirt okay basically to tell us whether we need to maintain the cell side or not now remember we have 75 just us we have about 75 80,000 macro cells and that's gonna be hundreds of thousands of small cells as you go to 5g 5g is a paradigm shifts from these macro big cells to very small cells that you can pretty much position every mile or two so an explosion the type of applications so what does this mean to what we've done over the past few years as we've brought to this to this level is that we've gone to software we are now a big advocate of software we use a lot of software actually in AT&T we counted in the past two years we have contributed 10 million lines of software just in two years which is quite astonishing for a company certainly like AT&T which is a very traditional telecom communication company these are the softwares we're starting to use today in building 5g and today I'm not gonna go into a lot of the details as to how and why but I'll just give you a little glimpse of what's going on if you're not familiar with some of those software you're probably familiar with the open stack this is what we use for cloud compute you know for a lot of our cloud compute technologies and this is what we have deployed in our cloud zones at AT&T today airship is what we use for the management of these cloud services and it's based on Kubernetes and then you get Daynoss is something we announced last year and this is sort of think of it as your network operating system for white boxes and this is something very vital to us because as we start thinking of the edge the edge is not just some cloud zone sitting few miles away the edge could also be where your customer is where your factory is where your retail store is so we're starting to deploy a lot of these white boxes with a network operating system called Daynoss here. O-RAN you're gonna hear a lot about O-RAN so O-RAN is a well-defined foundation it's led by a number of operators and a number of vendors are part of that and the goal of O-RAN is to really to disaggregate the RAN and drive interoperability you'll hear more about that in the next month or so. O-RAN is one of those capabilities we're using in building the edge for us as AT&T we found that with one of our most challenging tasks AT&T when we are building these multiple edge zones is integrating the technologies so O-RAN is about how do you basically drive and and the integration of edge technologies in a way that we could sort of test and deploy as a cookie cutter. Acumus is part of the Linux Foundation deep learning umbrella we're using Acumus in building analytic and predictive capability for the edge in figuring out how we can load balance our traffic so we load balance our traffic video traffic and others we have to have the predictive capability to allow us to know which cell which carrier do you basically load balance your traffic and this is basically what we use we use AI capability and Acumus to do exactly that and ONAP is our network operating system for the network cloud. All of these capabilities is what we're using today as we are rolling out 5G. I thought I'll show you the slide and you're gonna see more about the slides moving forward one of the most if you want to work on a complex task the big complex task to work on is the RAM this is really probably I've worked on a lot of software and open source I've never worked on something as complex as the RAM and part of that because it's really a close box it requires a lot of expertise in data and radio engineering and and many other expertise that you know it's hard to find one person who has all of these expertise together and what we've been doing as part of the ORAN consortium is to really break down the RAM into smaller pieces. You'll see basically at the bottom is your radio unit this is the little device that you see on top of a tower and today that little device is completely connected to a one big box called the VBU and what we're doing here is that opening up the box into smaller software modules with open API interoperability and standardizing those APIs and you can see where we're using the open source across all of these across that basically stack what's phenomenal in here is latency latency is very very important when we've been working in own app you know operating at about doing a close loop in the order of a second to two seconds or even higher it's okay in the network now if you want to identify there's a failure in your virtual machine or you want to drive traffic from one place to another apply a different policy it is okay if you're operating at a half second or a second or more but when you are looking at access really you're now talking about 10 to 20 milliseconds for things doing close loop within the the CU and and really in the sub millisecond when you're going all the way down to the radio units so now you know the expertise that you have to have is more than software it's more than data is you really need to understand how to manage latency and speed so this is just another view of looking at this is we talk about you know AT&T about this concept of edge-to-edge and this is where we are basically all that means is that we are placing the intelligence there's no one physical location for edge so we talk about edge compute we don't talk about one place we really talk about many places that start with the device all the way to the customer premise where we are deploying these white boxes and could be in your home and could be in small enterprises and then you have the cell towers of basically putting some of that intelligence in your cell towers like I said we're going from macrocells to microcells this is the movement towards using these millimeter wave spectrum and now also placing some of that intelligence in these edge clouds being in the data center so this is your CEOs your national data centers your regional data centers and what we're doing with those is that we're starting to push the intelligence from not just the device itself or what is today it's just the device itself and the core cloud the third-party cloud we're starting to redistribute that intelligence all across to get the optimal speed latency and experience basically that you want to support the SLA that you want to support for the application and then you have your private cloud and third party cloud and you could see where the open source software that we are placing across the across the stack from edge to edge one thing that we don't talk more a lot about and Martin mentioned this in the previous talk I know this is a software conference we talk a lot about open source okay but really what's also just as exciting as software and it's so important is the data and the reason why data is important because for us to optimize and use software in an intelligent way it's really through data and that's why AI is interesting because it's all about really bringing data and software together to try to do something really magical so we talk about 5g you hear a lot about 5g but one thing I want you to get out of my talk is when people talk about 5g I won't talk about latency and speed and new experiences and virtual reality and augmented reality and autonomous cars this is all good and this is all great but I want you what to remember is that the data and the question is that we're gonna be we're gonna have an explosion of data with 5g and one thing that's really exciting for a community like us here is what we gonna do with this data what kind of new projects we can have in Linux Foundation by marrying the data with software I want to show you I want to show you a video here that tells you a little about how we are starting to think about using AI and data in our development of 5g oops can you play at AT&T we're no stranger to artificial intelligence and machine learning we've embraced these technologies as valuable tools in our ever-evolving toolbox and are leading the way in integrating them into our world our next use 5g first AI will help us build out our 5g infrastructure it maps out where cell towers fiber lines and other transmitters exist today and can pinpoint the best location for 5g buildouts pairing location and usage information will create the most optimal 5g network machine learning and AI will work together to keep the 5g network maintained and secure by continuously monitoring how it's being used and how it's responding so if one cell is not functioning properly AI will signal another tower to pick up the slack or if one area is experiencing a high volume of usage AI will trigger lower use cell sites to ensure speed isn't compromised so what does this mean for you an explosion of data a strong efficient 5g network built for a mobile workforce a world of autonomous vehicles near zero lag virtual and augmented reality experiences from across the globe and truly extraordinary possibilities so we're actually using open source software today in designing our 5g so this is an actual use case is that every small cell AT&T puts is not based on an army of engineers going out and figuring out what to do and talking to the town etc it's really based on machine learning and AI technology that really ingest a large amount of data and tells us basically where is the most likely place we can put a small cell and what the experience is what the throughput is and how this is going to impact our customers another use case that you saw in the video is that now you put these small cells in how do you make sure you load balance those cells the traffic across those cells because for those who understand 5g and small cells one of the challenges with small cells and 5g is the propagation is that you have very short propagation and you have issues about penetrating through walls and glasses and things like that so again optimizing that again the same type of problem is that we're applying some of the open source technologies that I mentioned earlier and really building more data driven type of predictors to tell us how do you position antenna and what angle you can position the antenna to get the best experience okay so I mentioned this I'll just finish with those two use cases we're really very very excited about this new paradigm shift with 5g and it's really not about 5g it's about bringing 5g and edge together into this old you know real time network it's about bringing AI and pushing AI not in the traditional AI but really pushing AI closer and closer to the customer so at their fingertips they have really that intelligence that compute that power to do a lot of things with it wherever basically they are it's really about making the network programmable and that's what software defined network is if the network is not programmable it's really very hard you can have all the speed that you want it's really very hard to change things you know in in a millisecond type of interval to change spectrum in a millisecond interval to change the bandwidth that you would need in a millisecond type of interval so we're applying all of these we have actually opened up several foundries in the United States and one in Israel and one in Mexico and we've we've we've opened up sort of 5g and an edge that uses some of these open source software in these foundries to allow us to prototype with small businesses and large businesses new concept in 5g so if you want to try something you want to test something you you have an idea and open source or some new software come and work with us in our foundries whether it's for the autonomous cars and we're working with a number of car manufacturers where we are really pushing that intelligence to the small cell and to manage a number of cars sort of moving at the same time or even redefining the retail of being able to monitor manufacturing and really change the conveyor belts and manufacturing based on the point of sale at that moment in time using 5g technologies so let me finish here and thanks very much for listening and look forward to working with everyone here


Today we're opening a first edition hobby box of Soul of the Duelists to get that Ultimate Rare Horse. What's up guys we're back with another video and today I have this hobby box because I've opened one of these before and we did really really badly. But I once did buy Horus level 4, 6 and 8 all in Ultimate Rare First Edition near mint. I bought them from a friend of mine, he sent them to me this was in like 2018 and they got lost in the mail and I have not owned the three of those in first edition since. So the goal is to get the big level 8, I mean level 6 would be awesome as well. Level 4 is in a retail box so we can't get it but the goal is to get level 8 Ultimate Rare. If we got 6 and 8 both that'd be insane so we're hoping that happens in this video. We also have a few other packs to open but first we have a giveaway. I'll be giving away this Battles of Chaos First Edition booster box. All you have to do is like this video, be subscribed, turn on notifications and let me know will we get the Horus. This is a very difficult pull so if we do pull it we're losing it. It's one of our best pulls of all time. I'm just envisioning it right now it's going to happen. And now a word from our sponsor. This video is sponsored by Bespoke Post. Bespoke Post is a monthly membership club delivering awesome boxes of top shelf goods from under the radar brands.

Alright let's get this thing opened up. Thank you guys so much for being here checking out the channel today. I'm hoping that we can give you guys an amazing poll. I'm really, that was not how I meant to open that but it worked out I guess. First edition sold to us. The last time I opened this was like three years ago and out of a booster box I think. No maybe we did, did we do a booster box opening? I think it was unlimited though right? So we have all of these packs we're going to shuffle them up. We're going to make it interesting. We're going to try and pull something amazing and it's not just a booster box opening today guys. We have other boxes as well or other packs as well not boxes. I'll show you guys what we have. Alright we're going to open some. I have a few more packs of Dimensions Force so we're hopefully going to pull the Starlight Ghostbell out of here because we never did pull it or any of the Therion stuff is very good. We'll take that. There's a Therion right out of the way. We've got the Divine Dragon. We've got the Scareclaw. Hero of the Champion. We've got the Therion Disc Colosseum right off the bat in Ultra Rare. We will take that. This was supposed to be on the weekend but we had a sponsor on this video so sometimes that makes it slow down or whatever but hopefully you guys enjoy this weekend video not on the weekend. So let me know in the comments if you do. We've got the Proxy Wars and the Go DDD Divine King Rage. Very nice. And then we also have some Hobby Packs of Power of the Duelist. So we're not just opening Hobby Soul of the Duelist. We're opening Power of the Duelist as well and you guys know those green of the Duelist sets. They have some pretty good cards inside. Maybe today will be the day we get some insane pulls. I'm down for that to happen. I'm excited for it. Let's see what we can get. Miracle Jurassic. I've got the Crop Circles. Fake Hero. Crystals Dolphin. We've got the Pads of Destiny. Amulets Rescue Roid. Contact. And the Alien Mother. The Mother of Aliens. And the Decoi Roid. Okay. So, Dudstart. That's okay. Let's go into our first pack here. The cards that I went out of here. Any of the Ultra Ultis are amazing. Like the one with the red eyes on it. What's it called? Red Eyes is Attack. It's like Burst Stream Destruction. But for red eyes, what is it called? I can't remember what it's called. But it's a really beautiful card as well. Ultimate Rare. Then there's of course the Horus. There is the... I think a Mystic Swordsman or something like that. What's the other one? I'm forgetting the other one. It's really cool as well. We've got a Heavy Slump. Let's see what we can pull. We've got an Element Soldier. The Graveyard in the 4th Dimension. Taunt. We've got... Wait. You guys see this? A little bit of a Print Dot right there. Like a Weird Dot. We've got the Red Eyes Beach Chick. The Level Up. This used to be like a couple bucks. I don't think it is anymore. It's had a couple of reprints, but still cool. Nobleman Eater Bug. I actually played this in the Junior Journey series. You guys can go check that out on MBT's channel. Mystic Swordsman Level 2.  Very cool. Very, very cool. I think Sasuke Samurai is also a... No. Grandmaster Sasuke is also a rare. There we go. He is also a good Retail Ulti. The Retail Ulti's in here are actually not that bad. I mean a lot of them are pretty decent. There's like Ojama King. There's Grandmaster of Oz. A lot of cool ones. BD Savant Kroprenicus. I mean, I can't speak. Galaxy Soldier. That's how it always starts. When it's my first video recording on the day, it's just like... I mean, sometimes I do one. Sometimes I do multiple. The second or third one, usually a lot better. But the first one, I am struggling. Let's see what we can do. We've got the Scareclaw. Divine Dragon. Therion. We've got the Formpal Lady Angel. All right. Very nice. Very nice. Not too crazy, but we'll take it. Next up, we're going to go Ghost from the Past 2. You guys know, we're not going to really get tired of Ghost from the Past 2 for a while. I don't know about you guys, but I'm still not tired of it. It's always fun to open. Despia. Fossil Warrior Skull Knight. Very cool. All right. Let's go back into Power of the Dualist. Let's see if we can get an Ultimate. Last time we opened these on a video is maybe a week ago or so. We didn't get anything. So I'm hoping that that means that these have something. We can pull something amazing. Because I mean, Chimeritech Overdragon. I am interested in that in Ultimate Rare. I still don't own it. So let's see if we can pull it. We've got the Common Soul. We've got the Destiny Hero Blade Master. Alien. Mother. Not Hunter. Mother was the one we pulled earlier. Despair. Wonder Garrosh. Alien Grey. Synthetic Seraphim. And a Neospace. Man, another good Retail. Oh, yeah. This is PoTD. PoTD just has a lot of good Ultimate Rears. And by good, I mean they are pretty. Neospace is not a good card, but it's a pretty card. It's collectible because it's Neos. So that's what I mean. Definitely not good in terms of actual playability. Let's see if we can pull something insane out of here. I think it's four from the back where we're going to do three. We've got a Malice Doll of the Minds. It's another doll that's not coming off. The Gorgons. This has it too. Look. There's dots everywhere. Look at that. I remember last time I opened this booster box, the Ultra Rare was bent. I remember that. So hopefully that doesn't happen again. Enrange Muka Muka. The quality control was not great back then either. Still not great today. So Mind Crush. We've got a Mind Wipe. Back to back. The Minds are being crushed and wiped. We've got the Red Eyes B-Chick. Skull Dog Marin. And what will it be? Uh-oh. Master of Oz. There he is. The legend. 4,200 was always pretty legendary because of how massive his stats are. Really cool to see that guy. I don't really understand, like, what is he?  Why is he green though? I don't know. I really don't. Either way, we're taking that poll. That's pretty amazing. Let's see what else we can get. I don't know. If I keep opening a pack every seat, like three packs every time we open one of the booster box. Okay. There's a cursed dragon, the magical dragon. We are going to be here for a long time. So maybe I shouldn't do that, but I'm having too much fun. It's going to be a long video potentially. Let's see what we can do here. We got a Chronicle Magician. Very nice. And let's go into Power of the Duelist. I just want to pull something cool today. I don't know about you guys. I just really like, I'm feeling pulling something cool. So I'm just opening a lot to make sure we can, you know, get something interesting. Let's see. We got Elements of Hero Nios already. Nice. Mausoleum. We got a Bitlon. Amos Rescue Roid. We got the Elements of Hero Nios. D-Spirit. The Flying Saucer. Mussek. The Baby Source. Nice. Or Sarasaurus. And then the Gangadiel and the Destiny Mirage. Because so far we have not pulled anything too crazy. We pulled a couple of decent cards. Let's see if Soul of the Duelist can change that. A whole booster box we are opening today. First edition. Pretty amazing. Pretty awesome. This set, I think is the 12th set. It came out right after Anxious Sanctuary, if I'm correct. So, yeah. Really old set. First set I believe that they stopped using Secret Rear and started using Ultimate Rear. So pretty awesome. Big Wave, Small Wave. Really the first Ultimate Rear set. That's actually crazy. I didn't think about that. Element Dragon with the Heavy Slump. Arm Dragon Level 3. Mine Wipe. Mine Crush. Dark Mimic Level 1. Also not a terrible card. It's kind of like a Dekuichi but worse. Cause Dekuichi wasn't out yet when this came out. Oh, another Mystic Swordsman Level 2. Not a bad card either. And then a Masked Dragon. Also a pretty decent card. Alright, next up. Ghost from the Past 2. Also, don't forget to check out my Twitch channel. I've been streaming 5 days a week. Every weekday. So go check it out. Link in the description. We've been doing a lot of cool stuff over there. Let's get back to the opening. Let's go. Sanctuary. We got the 9 Pillars. Crystron Halka Fibrax. Mentioned Twitch. Pull Crystron Halka Fibrax. Good sign, I think. Every pack? No, we won't. We won't do that. Okay. Dimension Force. I think we're going to lower it to like 1 or 2 packs per Soul of the Duelist pack. So we're not opening like a million packs. Oh, we messed it up. We were Mentioned Bonded. That was a mini Ruxen special. Not a full Ruxen special though. So that's okay. Let's go on to Soul of the Duelist. We have opened a few packs so far. We're Ofer on this box. So we've got a ways to go to actually pull some good. Alright, Dark Mimic Level 1. Let's see. We have Neo Aquamador. We have Enraged Mukamuka. The Dark Factory of Mass Production. Alright, that's for the Exodia Limbs. The Dark Mimic Level 1. The Howling Insect. Not a bad card either. Ninjutsu Art of Decoy. We've got the Hade Hade. Also tried to play this in the Junior Journey. And a Grinnell. No, not they. Guys, we pulled this last time. The Greed Ultimate Rare. Last time was worth like $2. It was probably worth a little bit more. But also this box cost a lot more than it cost me last time. So... Alright, I still have hope. I still have hope. We are going to pull something good out of the other Ultimate Rare. We are going to get a good Ultra Rare. We are going to get a horse. Okay? I believe it's going to happen. Please. Let's check out the... We need to check out the condition on the back of that. To see if we do pull an Ultimate. It's going to be a nice condition. Or at least a good one. Royal Rid of Taxation. That is really depressing. Alien Skull. Rallis. I pulled that last time. Crout. The Chrysalis Dolphin. The Black Terra. Black Saucer. The Paths of Destiny. And... D-Chain. Okay. D-Chain Saber Source. Alright, let's check out the back. These are always in terrible condition. Okay, yeah. That bad, but it has some scuffing there. It's kind of like Ghost of the Past. Wait, is this dinged? The corner is bent. The corner is bent and the back is... Not really that bad. But the corner is bent. Oh my goodness. We got a greed that's not even in near mint shape. That's rough. Alright, we need Ghost of the Past Pulitzer. Ghost Rare. I'm already sad now. I'm already sad. Come on, man. Why'd that have to happen? Why'd that have to happen? Rookie, we've got the Deco Targary. That's pretty good. Mystical Shineball. Infinity Sage. Okay, wait. I have more Ghost of the Past. Dimension of Chaos, I think. I think we opened all of them by accident. Not Dimension of Chaos. Banshee. That's pretty good. What is it called again? Dimension Force. There we go. All the same name. Very confusing. Let's go back to Soul of the Duelist. Maybe that can bless us with a Horus of the Black Flame Dragon. Gotta believe. You gotta believe, guys. Here we go. Come on. Goblin Calliographer. Calligrapher, that's not how you say that. Calliographer. Horus Servant. Get the Taunt. Sandwich. We got the Fusion Weapon. Arm Dragon Level 3. And... Horus the Black Flame Dragon Level 6. Okay, it's not an ulti. This would be a really cool ulti. But it is a super rare. We will take that. That's... I mean, it's not redemption, but it definitely helps the box. Okay, super rare. Horus the Black Flame Dragon. That's pretty. I mean, that looks nice. Honestly, this would be a cool card to grade. Okay, maybe there's a little bit going on right there. Maybe we won't. Speaking of that, I sent in like 200 cards. Yeah, 200 cards of PSA. I'm gonna be making a video on Ruxen Live talking about it, and there's gonna be a pregrade seeing what I sub. So if you guys wanna see that, go check out Ruxen Live down below in the description. Pretty cool. All right. We'll take Horus. That's pretty good. So we've gotten two foils now out of that. That's not bad. All right, Time Thief. Not anything crazy. Let's go back to Soul of the Duelist because we have a lot of packs left here. Let's see what we can pull. What shall we pull then? We have Fusion Weapon. Opening these booster boxes, man. It can either crush you or really hype you up. You never really know. We've got Element Soldier. We've got the Heavy Slump. Fusion Weapon. We've got the Skull Dog Marin. Arm Dragon Level 3. Cemetery Bomb. And... Hammer Shot. The Worst Smashing Ground. That came out after Smashing Ground, which is very odd, but they did it anyway. Ghost in the Past 2. I believe in you, Ghost in the Past 2. We can pull a Ghost or Blue Eyes. That would make me a little happier. Let's go. We've got this Shell Knight. Okay, that's not gonna help. Back to Sod. Then we're gonna do a Pot... Pack. P.O.T.D. Pot... A Pot of the Pack. Let's do a Pot of the Pack after this. I kinda like a Pot of the Pack. That's kind of fun. Except you gotta say it really fast. We've got the Dark Mact... Dark Mactuary. A fast production. We've got the Horus... Malice... Okay, Unshave and Angler Taunt. I don't know what's happening. Sandwich. Fusion Weapon. And... Ooh, another Horus! Level 4. So we are pulling the Horuses. Is this a sign? Will we pull the Level 8? I'm gonna put that over there because right now, we have Level 4 and Level 6, neither or Ultimate Rare, but Level 8 could be. That'd be a cool way to level up. Have a regular Rare 4, then a Super Rare 6, and then an Ultimate Rare. It could also be an Ultra, which would also make sense, but I think Ultimate Rare would be cooler. Let's just say that. Okay. Vision Hero Defender. 2700 Defense. Better than Big Shield of Garnet. Sort of. Common Soul. We've got the Destiny Hero Fear Monger. We've got the Path of Destiny. Orbital Bombardment. Wonder Geddish. And Spell Calling. Okay, those are not doing so hot right now. Let's see if we can redeem ourselves with Ghosts from the past. Let's go. Ghosts from the past. Vision Hero. We've got the Retaliating Sea. We've got the Chronicle Magician. Okay, Vampire Takeover. Cool card, but it's not a Ghost Rare, so maybe if they make a Ghost version, I'll care about it. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. Vampire Takeover. We love you. We totally love you, Vampire Takeover. Definitely a big fan. All right. Let's just keep going. Don't talk to Vampire Takeover anymore. All right. Heavy Slump. We've got the Neo Aquaman Doer. We've got the Mukamuka. Oh, Ruxen Special with the Howling Insect. The first one of the video. Well, we kind of had one earlier. Ninjutsu Art. We've got the Haydain. Fusion Weapon. And... The Charcoal Impachi. All right. A normal one-star 2100 Defender. Interesting choice. And this will also be an interesting choice when it has a Blue Eyes by Dragon inside. Magician Girl the other day. I'm ready for Blue Eyes. Nope. Sacred Waters in the sky. All right. Now back to Soul of the Duals. We're not even halfway through this box, by the way. So we might want to pick it up in terms of opening S.A.D. or you're going to be here all day, which, you know, that's fine with me, but I know you guys got other stuff to do. So let's get through it. We've got the Neo Aquaman Doer. Let's pull the Horus Ultimate Rare Level 8. And then you guys can be like, all right, cool. Big Wave Small Wave. Another Ruxen Special. We got to fix that. Two Man Cell Battle. The Sandwich. Unshave and Angler. And... Oh, no. No. No. Do not be the same box. If this is the same box, this is what we got in Ultimate Rare last time. So I'm already expecting that this is what we're going to pull. We're going to get another Ultimate Rare Penumbral Soldier Lady. Please don't let that happen. Just please. Come on. Have mercy. Not the same box. Like, come on. Anything with the same box, right? I mean, that shouldn't happen. That shouldn't happen, right? Right now, in the comments, send me some luck that we will not pull up a Penumbral Soldier Lady. Pretty much to me. We've got the Alien Hunter. We've got the Common Soul. Come on. Synthetic Seraphim. We've got the Elemento Hieronios. I'm Borobo Mardman. Or... Ultimate Tyranto! I always... Oh, yeah. This is not Soul of the Duelist. I forgot. Ultimate Tyranto. Super Rare. This is a very cool Ultimate Rare as well. We will take that. That's really, really nice, but this is what we're looking for. You see him back there? Hor... They barely put him on there. I don't get why they have a window. Like, why is he not the whole thing? They're like, here's a window. Here's, like, part of Horus with Yui's hair covering up his face. Really weird. This is a really strange choice. I don't know, but they went with it. They went with it. And can we pull something amazing? Here we go. Gorgon's Eye. We've got the Element Dragon. Gravekeeper in the fourth dimension. Element Soldier. Hey and hey. They've got stuff all over them. Ninjutsu Art of Decoy. Howling Insect. These are 60 card sets, by the way. That's why we're seeing the same comments so much. And... Level Up. And... Refleesia Seduction. Ooh, okay. That is a really interesting card that we totally wanted to pull. Definitely wanted that card. Hundred percent. All right, go start time, baby. Ah, Vigenera Ferris. We'll take that all day. That's pretty solid. Pretty solid. Now let's go. POTD. Here we go. Give us something good, POTD. We have the Baby Sarasaurus. The Dinos. The pretty amazing cards. Here we go. Alien Skull. Royal Rit of Taxation. The Rouse of Starbird. Sabersaurus. Baby Sarasaurus. The Contact. Contact Contract. We've got the Crystal's Dolphin. And... And... Ooh, Ultimate Rare. Neospation. Flare Scare-Up. All right, that's pretty sick. I used to have this Super Rare card back in the day. And yeah, it was one of the only cards I kept. I actually still have this card. I don't know why I kept it. I guess I thought it looked cool. I saw a little dimple or something. This card's really beautiful, though. That's a nice pull. We will take that. Look at him. He's like swaggy.  It kind of looks like he's like... Mm, mm, mm. Okay. Neospation. Square-Up. Very cool. Nice Square-Up we got there. Very nice pull. All right, that's going to jumpstart this video. That's going to start the waterfall of epic pulls. I believe. I believe we can do this. Let's go. Give us something amazing. Horus the Black Flame Dragon. Ritual Weapon. Trojan Horse. Abyssal Designator. Ultimate Baseball Kid. Nice. Level Up. We've got the Arm Dragon, Level 3. The Mind Wipe. Mind Crush. And... Okay, Spirit Barrier. Why do I think this has value for some reason? I don't know. Spirit Barrier. Okay. We'll take that. We're going to go back to Ghost from the Past. We are almost 20 minutes into this video. I hope you guys are enjoying the long video. A lot of you guys say... I love the long videos. You guys say that every time I upload a long video. That might not be the majority of you, but some of you guys are saying that. So, I really hope you do because this is a long one for sure. Let's see if we can speed it up a little bit. I say that as we're opening a pack that's not Soul of the Duelist. Let's go like this. The packs are falling over. That's how many packs we've opened. Common Soul. Amulus Roy. Fake Hero. Baby Sarasaurus. Contact. And... Nope. It's not this one. Wonder Garage. It's not this one either. Rescue Rudd. And... Oh, whoa! Back to back! Flare of Scarab. There's the Super Rare. So, we got the Ultimate and the Super Rare in back to back packs. That's pretty weird. That actually does look really nice though. We'll take that. Very nice. Okay. Final pack on the right side. Soul of the Duelist. We might need to do like back to back Soul of the Duelist packs because we're getting a little carried away here. Let's see if we can pull something amazing. Can we pull... We haven't pulled an Ultra out of here. We're not guaranteed to get one. So, hopefully we will get an Ultra Rare and it's a good one. We've got the Emaus Doll of Demise, Gorgon's Eye, Mindwipe, Red-Eyes Bee Chick, Skulldog Marin, Unshave and Angler, and... Refleesia Seduction. Yeah, he's at it again. Let's go to the first pack on the left side. So, we pulled what? An Ultra and one Super or something? Was that it? So, we should have a lot on this side potentially like four or five pulls. I hope. I hope that we do at least. Let's see if we can get a really good one. Abyssal Designator. Ultimate Baseball Kid. The Absolute End. Neo's Neo Aquamdoor. We've got the Nobleman Eater Bug, the Ninjutsu Art of Decoy, Highly Insects, Level Up, and... Spear Barrier is at it again. So, we've got another one of those. Another spirit barrier. Ghost from the Past is about to bring it back from the spirit world. Here we go. Because he's a ghost. He's a blue eyes. Let's see what he can do. The Sacred Waters in the Temple. That is not what we're looking for. Now we give it to Pot. Pot it. We've got an Ultimate Rare out of here today, which is pretty amazing. Can we get a second one? Huh? Be pretty good? Be pretty good. Ultimate pulls in today's video. One we wanted, the other one we did not. We have a Bitlone. Decoy Roy, the Mausoleum of the Emperor, the Miracle Jurassic Egg, D-Spirit, Flying Saucer and Muscle. We've got the Nios in one of our garage, and... Alien Warrior. So, a lot of aliens in that pack. Yeah, very cool. How many times have I said Soul of the Duelist in today's video? I don't know. I'm just trying to drive it home that we're about to pull the horse, you know. It's out of Soul of the Duelist. You're not going to forget it, because you're going to be like, dude, he said Soul of the Duelist like a hundred times in today's video. It's like, yeah. How we roll. Ritual Weapon. We've got the Mass Dragon. Pretty cool card. Mausoleum of Demise. Big Wave, Small Wave. We've got the Arm Dragon Level 3. It's called Dogamaran. Fusion Weapon and Ultimate Insect Level 1. This is another beautiful Ultimate in retail. We can't get that one. That's okay. Now, let's go to the next pack. Let's see what we can pull. Will it be something amazing? I'm still on the edge of my seat. Will it be a repeat box like the one from three years ago? It's totally possible. Hopefully not, though. Gorgon's Eye. Someone is very loud outside with their truck. We had a Ritual Weapon. Maybe it's a motorcycle. We've got a Dark Mimic Level 1. Minewipe. Haydain. Minecrush. Another Ultimate Insect Level 1. Okay. Back-to-back Ultimate Insects. That can happen. That is something that can happen. We are now going Ghost from the Past because we are still looking for a lot of stuff out of that box. We have a Time Thief. Okay. Back-to-back. Back-to-back Ghost Shirts. That's what I'm feeling. Back-to-back Ghost from the Past. I think this might work. I think it might happen. Let's see. We've got Box of Friends. We've got a Luber. It worked. Let's take it. Now Pot. Pot-a-da-da. Pull us another Ultimate Rare. You've had the best pull of the video, so can you do it again? We're doing four from the back now because we're confident in what it is. The Rallis. We've got the Alien Skull. We've got the Royal Rit. Sabresaurus. Ambulance Rescue Roid. Alien Grey. The Accord Connection Zone. Fossil Activation and Overload Fusion. Another beautiful retail. So many good Ultimate Rares out of Power of the Duelist. Hobby and Retail. It's pretty nice. Back-to-Soul of the Duelist. I think we still need to pull a lot of foils, so I don't know where they are. What they're doing. I mean, I guess we'll find out. Let's see what we can do. One, two, three, four. We have Heavy Slump. Element Dragon. Oh, Ruxen Special again. Mass Dragon. The Level Up. Red-Eyes Beechick. The Taunt. Unshaving Angler. And mine on and believe it or not, mine is on and let's go to the second one. There's still a lot of pulls left, supposedly, and we're not seeing them. It's kind of weird. I feel like we've only pulled one Super Rare out of here. No, two Super Rares. Two Servers in Ultimate. That's why. Okay, Goblin Choligrapher. We got the Muka Muka. Double Ruxen Special. Oh, is that a sign maybe? A good sign? Possibly. Maybe a bad sign. Red-Eyes Beechick. Cemetery Bomb. And it's the same box. No. No. This can't be happening. The same exact box from 2019, I think. Maybe 2018. Oh, come on. The worst Ultimate Rares in the set. Literally the worst possible Ultimate Rares. Oh, my goodness. Now we just have to hope for a Horus Ultimate Rare. That's our only, or Ultra Rare, I should say. Because I don't think we can get another Ultimate Rare. Oh, my, what a depressing box. What a depressing box. I'm really getting flashbacks right now. I'm getting flashbacks, guys. I'm really, I'm really feeling it. It's bad. This is not good. We have a Neo Aquamint Dwarf. Absolute End. Just give us the level eight Ultra, at least. Come on. I remember we got the worst Ultra Rare last time too and it was bent. Mine Crush and Null and Void. Yep, another, another great super. That would have been a pretty bad super too, even though that would have looked cool. And at least I wouldn't have it. POTD, you've been the bright spot of this video. So continue to brighten this video up with another Epic Pull. Because right now, this video, I'm not going to say it sucks, but you know. You know what I'm thinking. All right, fake here. We got the Brainwashing Beam. Alien Hunter. Malevents over your own ears. Bored Bomb Bar. Bubble, bubble, bubble, bubble. Crystal is Dolphin. And Destiny Hero Dasher. Used to be $15. Just got reprinted. Probably $1 now, unfortunately. Soul of the Duelist. This is your chance. Okay, here's the better part. I don't think we pulled Horus Level 6 last time. So we got a super rare that was better than last time. We can take that. That's better than being the exact same and just being awful. But our luck with this set continues to be pretty poor. Element Dragon. We've got the Graveyard. I'll be happy if we get the Level 8 Ultra. I'll be happy with that. Ninjutsu Art. Howling Insect. Ninjutsu. Our Ninja, Grand Master Sasuke. This is a good card and warrior decks for Goat as well. Ghost in the Past. This is your chance. This is your chance to really change the mood. Come on, cheer us up. Okay. Maybe like, you know, by changing the mood, I meant like give us something good, not like something boring. I mean, that's what I really meant by this. We have, okay, Reptia Egg. All right, nice. Let's do 1 Power of the Duelist. And we're going to go back to Soul of the Duelist. We're going to finish out this box. We're going to pull the ultimate, or not the ultimate. The Horus Level 8. Maybe we'll pull the ultimate. Who knows? Maybe Airbox. We'll see if it can happen. Let's go. Hi, Milch Roy. Decoy Roy. You don't know until you open it. Miracle Jurassic Egg. Crop Circle. Elmetsuronios. De-Spirit. Cyber Summon Blaster. Okay. We still have five packs left. Five more chances at the legendary Horus, the Black Flame Dragon. I believe that we can pull this. It could change everything. Absolute End. The Ultimate Baseball Kid. Abyssal Designator. Trojan Horse. Oh, Ruxen Special. The Sandwich. Two-man Cell Battle. I would say batter. And then the old Jama King. There he is. He's here to cheer us up. He's like, little man. Yeah, so, yeah. Okay, I don't think it worked though. I'm still feeling a little bit sad. Let's see what we can do here. Can we pull something amazing? Will it be epic? Will it be awesome? I believe that it will be. We have the Godland Calligrapher. Ritual Weapon. Mass Dragon. Moused All of Demise. Hadehane. Ninjutsu Art of Decoy. Howling Insect. Level Up. Intervating Mist. Ooh, another rare. Ooh, a rare right in our face. Don't worry. So far we've pulled the Flair Scarab. That's really the big one. That's really about it. Oh, no. Oh, no. This is not looking good, guys. This is not looking good. Hope you guys have at least enjoyed the opening because, oh, there's a bent card. Okay. And then a Luber. Okay. We pulled a couple of those. Those are unfortunately under 10 bucks now. They went down a lot, but still pretty solid. Soul of the Duelist. You still owe us at least one foil. I think we have five foils. So you owe us at least one more foil. I believe we got the Element Dragon. Oh, Ruxen Special. Mass Dragon. Neo Aquamidur. Noble Manita Bug. The Level Up. Red Eyes Beach Shake. Taunt. Arm Dragon Level 5. Another cool Retail Ulti. I pulled that against Yu-Gi-Mou in, like, 2018, 2019, a long time ago. Second to last pack. Will it have it? Will it have the amazing Horus the Black Flame Dragon? I believe. Dark Factory. Horus Servant. Yeah. Come on. Where is... All right. The Servant's here. Where's the Master? Skull Dog. We got the Arm Dragon. We got the Cemetery Bomb. Noble Manita. And a Hallowed Life Barrier. No. Does that mean we're not even going to get an Ultra? Oh, we're saving that one. Ghost from the Past. Power of the Duelist. And Soul of the Duelist. End this thing off. Here we go. Ghost Shred. Let's go. Okay. Nothing in that one. That's okay. That's okay. Ghost from the Past. Not this time. Power of the Duelist. You've been pretty strong. Power of the Duelist. I'll give you that. You've been a strong player in today's video. Let's see if you can end it off with another Epic Pull. We have Sabrosaurus. We have Defender. Common Soul. Amulence Roid. Contact. Oneer Garage. Rescue Roid. Synthetic Seraphim. And a Cyclone Blade. Okay. That all comes down to this. Will this have a level 8? We've pulled four supers, two Ultimates. You sometimes get an Ultra. You sometimes don't. This is the chance to get it. Here we go. Let's go. Will we pull something amazing? One, two, three, four. Be the Horus. Ultimate Baseball Kid. Abyssal Designator. Oh, another Ruxus. This is getting bad as you can tell. I'm affected. I'm affected by the pulls. Trojan Horse. There it is again. Arm Dragon Level 8. We've got the Skull Dog Marin. Fusion Weapon. And... We got an Ultra Inferno Fire Blast. Okay, yes. We will take that. This is the red eyes thing I was talking about. The Inferno Fire Blast is not an ultimate. It is the Ultra. Okay. I wasn't expecting that. I was expecting a rare, totally. So when I saw this, I was like, whoa, okay. We'll take this. This is probably at least worth a little bit. I mean, it's definitely better than the Ultimates we got, I would say. So overall, I mean, it was pretty bad box, but that was a great pull at the end. So I feel a little bit better about it.
