The second stop on the BET Wrap It Up tour was to New Orleans and I had to go there with more than just an opportunity to speak to people, but really to ask people.  Le se le, bon ton roux. My father, he passed away from HIV. I think in this area, in this culture, what has happened is there's been over-commercialization of sex because sex sells and that brings tourism, it brings people. The music is also centered around a lot of sex.  Wait, don't do that.  I love my boy, his sex is good. He beat me over and he beat me with that good joke. You can like run into him on the street and act like you don't know them, so they like fall in love with him. They're taking education from our people here in New Orleans. That's what they're doing. They're uneducating people here in New Orleans because they need them to do what they need them to do in penitentiary. So when you first think about the question, what is sex like in any city, your instinct may be like mine was to go to Google and type in your standard rates and stats. Number one, New Orleans is number three in new HIV infection rate and you think about the fact that New Orleans only has a local population of 500,000 people. On top of that, when we think about Chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis, they again rank in the top three in the United States in each and every category. And as far as teen pregnancy goes, three out of 10 young women will become pregnant before they turn 20 years old. But beyond that, beyond the sob story and the numbers, what is it really like to have sex in the city? To me, the best place to find those answers are through the visual curators, the ones who spend their time observing and documenting. And I was fortunate to have some of the best tour guides I think New Orleans had to offer. Award-winning videographer, Brandon Onums, aka B-Mike, also a photographer, Erica Cain, and last but not least, up-and-coming designer, Alexander Andrew Smith. The first order of business, which was actually a little bit of a role reversal for me, is they sat me down to give me the talk. It was one of the most awe-inspiring, eye-opening and informative talks I probably ever had to date.  I think it depends on who you ask first, because there's different pockets of cultural sexuality in the city. I think there's two sides of every city, but there's definitely a strong two sides of this city. There's like the tourist side, there's the part that the French Quarter and that area that sort of sells sex in a different way. And then there's like the cultural, like there's the music, and there's like the natural New Orleans scene that sells sex in a different way. So the touristy sex sell part would be like the strip clubs and social scene that kind of has its own brand of sex. Definitely like marketed by the types of music we listen to, which bounce the hip-hop, all that stuff, you know?  This should grow up heated black, you know what I mean? We live in New Orleans, outside of N-Zone, you know what I mean? Straight like that. Actually bounce music, not actually all of it, but the majority of the bounce music is described sex. Where does that come from? Like when we were just actually in the French Quarter just now, it's the same thing, it's all about sex. It's strip clubs, it's prostitution, there's that sort of over-exhypness of it. Is that the root of it or does it come from somewhere else?  People around the world, they may not understand it, but it's just our culture. So when you think about New Orleans, do you think of it as a city that's sexually progressive or one that has a lot of problems? Well actually we have a lot of problems. We have the youth, a lot of them is on the wrong page and they're taking the wrong things and they don't know better. So some young girls are sexually active at a young age. We have young teenage pregnancies. We also have prostitutes up and down the street. There's no very popular here. We have young girls starting at a young age stripping in a strip club and stuff like that, so yes, it's a problem. But in the same time, the music you don't think is the issue? What's the problem? It could be, it could be the music. In a sense, it could be the music and it could be other things going on in the household with their surrounding vibe as well. And I want to talk about your son as well too, because he's at that age right now where everything is so influential for him. What conversations are you having with him to make it so that he's not just a victim of what he feels? Actually my kids normally come into the studio with me. So when they hear my music, I also tell them that my music is not kids' music. So they're not allowed to sing my music. As far as my son, I let him know if someone else is singing they don't mean you have to sing it. If they're dancing to it or moving to it, that doesn't mean that you have to like it or be a follower or be a leader and take charge of your own. It came from here too, right? Is this like the birthplace of twerking? Yeah, you can make that very serious argument, yeah. It's the birthplace of twerking. Yeah, I mean, like, the music, the bounce music, that's why I think it's so important to have conversations with bounce artists because when you think about sex in New Orleans, bounce is like the perfect example of what that looks like in house and floors. Because within bounce, there's no content in bounce other than sex. You know what I mean? Yeah, this is what I like about it. You can be driving down the street, you've got some banging, tweeters, speakers, whatever, roll down their windows. You might see people like washing the car, being straight up, just chilling on a porch, whatever. So they hit that beat.  Like 12-year-olds, 5-year-olds, upside down. So quick. You have a good demonstration. Ready to go. It brings a smile to your face. But at the same time, you're kind of like, something is not right. The basic way of saying that is that in many instances, communities, socially, medically, they bring a PG-rated message to an x-rated world. And so I think what happens is, in bringing a PG-rated message to an x-rated mindset, what it does is it limits your ability to honestly, openly communicate with them as they see you as, oh, you're not serious. Okay, so they don't listen to you, even if you have good information. What's missing from the New Orleans upbringing that has people going into a lifestyle that doesn't equal a healthy sex life? Teaching. Teaching. I'm going to say my neighborhood. And my neighborhood is 67, 89 New Orleans. And you can count the schools that's closed. You can count the schools that's no longer in existence. They're doing all the things with them. You know, it's like, I've been to Catholic school for the majority of my life. And there's a lot of Catholic people that go to Catholic school here where I try to keep their kids in a certain area so they don't experience, like, you know, alcohol, sex, drugs, too early, which are things that bring people to the city. Attractions, maybe attractions. And I think that causes a curiosity to grow that is in the end. There's a lot of these harsh contrasts because, like, even with the idea of Mardi Gras, like I was telling you, on Mardi Gras, Fat Tuesday is like partying the streets, but then Ash Wednesday is the next day. So it's like, this city is also heavily influenced by religion, so it's a heavily Catholic city. So it's kind of like all this that was happening, you know, St. Augustine, the school, St. Augustine, was like one of the biggest anti-sex prophets in the history of Catholicism. There's a strong religious culture that comes with New Orleans lifestyle and Louisiana lifestyle.  And then on the other hand, you have the lifestyle of the people that is sexually expressive, very sensual. I think the great thing that you've mentioned really is that when you're not really taught about the conversation, so if sex is never something you talk about with your family, with your church, you never have that conversation, so I expect young people to be able to negotiate when it comes to real activity. And they only think about or hear about it in that sort of salacious way, where it's not talked about on a real, passionate, serious level.  It's a transference of power. And so what happens is, if you have a young lady who, like you said, has not been taught about having a dialogue about sex, she doesn't even feel, I don't want to use the word worthy, she doesn't feel empowered enough to say, mm-mm, if you don't use the condom, we're not having sex. That's just the end all of it all, because other people will freakize them.  Why are you talking about condoms? You shouldn't even know about condoms.  I would say, right, with males, it is the jail system that also influences a lot of... Right. Because we are the prison capital of the world. The United States is the prison capital of the world. Louisiana is the prison capital of the country, and New Orleans is the prison capital of Louisiana. So by default, we are the prison capital of the world. So the prison culture, I think, heavily influences sexuality as well.  On Tulane. Yeah, because the jail is on Tulane. And it bounces also culture where you could have a transvestite on stage and nobody's tripping, you know what I mean? So it's like, I don't know how strong it is in other cities, you know what I mean? But in this city, you have a room full of dudes, girls, and nobody tripping, they all having a good time. So, but as a star, globally, it's like pushing that culture to the point where it's like, this is what we do in New Orleans, that's how we rock in New Orleans. And y'all just got accepted. I think it's progressive. It is. What's up, y'all? This is the one on the 16th. Nobby, I am one of the hottest, I wouldn't say bouncers, but southern rap artists in the south, you know what I mean? And I'm doing my thing. Let's go. One shot and there's Tilly. Today I'm specifically trying to really understand what sex in this city is like. If you were to say, if I was to ask you, what is sex in New Orleans like? But straightforward when it comes to things. There's a lot of mischievous women and males out here, you know what I'm saying? In this city, but I mean, you know, we just own some real stuff. When we want something, we want something. And what do you think you guys do really well? When you think this city, like, what are you proud of? Like, I'm from New Orleans and like, yeah, we may be very like sexually out there, but there's something beautiful about that. What is that beauty to you? Well, I can't speak it for a sex-wise, but for a music-wise, because of the bounce that we do, we only, you know, gave a hashing, no type of homophobia down here because of that we do bounce music.  I mean, we just like regular people, honestly, in this city because we put on, you know, everyone knows who we are from the teens, the adults, everyone.   Is there, like, have you ever had a moment where you sat back and really watched what your music impacts people? Have you ever seen a straight dude singing along and talking like that? Oh, yeah. One of my biggest hits of all time was the song Consequences, which is talking about how my melodious guy, everyone is hated on that relationship.  That's one of my biggest hits of all time, which is that song right there, Consequences. And the street, the street on cloud loves it. And boss music is always like, it's almost instructional when it comes to sex. If I was to listen to your song and play by play, do what's instructed of me, would I have an orgasm? No. No, I would hope not. I would hope not. That's just, I mean, I would hope so honestly because then I'd be getting a lot of cells, a lot more cells in my iTunes and stuff, just because of that and stuff.  And stuff, but no. This, to me, is beautiful because it is about being sexually expressive no matter what your orientation is. It is about exaggerating and showing beauty in the fact that we are sexual creatures. But when that is sort of bookended or I should say storm crowded by the fact that the HIV rate here is so high, how does that really influence the culture? I don't feel like it's focused on enough. I think that there's that ignorance is bliss type field where it's like, well, it ain't me. And so, because I don't feel like there's enough conversations or enough awareness or brands or anybody that's even out here. Maybe it's because AIDS just isn't sexy. It's not. So it's hard to sell sex. It's hard to sell sex but then also sell the problems of sex, you know what I mean?  I would probably be with that AIDS side because now over here they don't... Well, because here is so heavily influenced by tourism maybe it's not in the best interest to have awareness. Because for the local people... And that's a part...  I would say overwhelming. It is.   So you're told you're looking at the girls twerking or you're looking at the music videos or you're looking at the content of the lyrics that talks about all these sexual acts but you don't get the conversation about how to be responsible with that or how to do it in the quote unquote safety so... Or what comes before or after. Right, exactly.  The city is pouring itself out. By the time I got to Kip the next day to actually have the talk with other people I was so sexually charged up with information with questions, curiosity, with appreciation for the people who have to live in this city of such great extremes. It's showing out with shame. It's debauchery and it's disease. It's celebration with this lack of true, genuine education. It's one big giant conversation that everyone's talking about but no one's saying anything. It could be the most sexually progressive city in the United States and possibly on the planet. You can't worry about what might happen. You gotta worry about what's going on right here, right now and that's the only way that you're gonna get through that. Alright? Man, give me a hug. Stop being so beautiful. I think this city definitely is like an example of what it could look like both good and bad. I think it shows what it could look like when it's accepted and not so taboo.  But then you also see the extremes. We do have the big problems and we do have the lack of education around sex. People can learn from this city but also this city could learn from other places as well.


Welcome to the 1878 FM podcast, it's episode 11, there's three of us at the moment, there will be four at some stage when traffic leaders and Pedro realised that he should be in the studio recording with us but he's not quite here yet but I am joined as always by Dave Vitty and Andy Busch. Andy Busch is doing a little bit of a Domino Calvert looing at the moment, he's back, he's fit and then he's out and then he's back but he's here this weekend we're glad to have him. When I'm in, I don't look that arsed. Oh he's gone there, he's gone straight to the reference. I see myself more as a Tarkovsky character whereby I've literally played every minute of every podcast so far and I'm yet to disappoint. In terms of my attendance, I don't mean in terms of my contribution which is largely disappointing. For Scott, you've got about 6.9 days, that's all. It's good to be back, it's good to be back. Sorry it's been a bit of a hokey-cokey in and out but I'm back. I've had a little opp on my nose to get rid of me, I had a little spot on my nose for ages that the NHS kept telling me was a cyst and I thought I don't think it is you know. Turns out it wasn't, it isn't and I've had to get it like properly removed so I've had a skrit skin graft. Wow. Plastic surgery thing, top thing. I should have got my chin done or something when I was in there. So what, so they've taken skin from somewhere else and then what sort of like? Glue that up. Like soldered it onto your nose? Honestly, there's this thing they've got called a quarteriser, which I've never heard of before and you hear this crackling noise. I couldn't see anything because I had this blanket over my head. They burn it but they sort of sear the edges of the scar to then put this new bit of tissue on it. No, it's a bit like soldering then. It is, it's like Bunsen burner, GCSE Bunsen burner. It really is. So how are you? Are you okay? Are you recovering? How are you? I'm good man, I've got my stitches out at the end of the week so my middle daughter Thea won't look at me. It's horrified with my appearance. I won't let me do bedtime story anything. She won't look at me so hopefully when I get the stitches out on Friday I'll be back in the game. I mean that's not a compliment is it? Daddy please don't come near me, don't read me a bedtime story because I'm worried that actually you will make me more nervous and scared going to bed without me.  She was like cheers. She looked like a bogey. So I was like thanks for that mum. So if you ever need an absolute morale battering, speak to your parents. That's what they're there for. They're there to bring you back down to earth and going all holly would have a plastic surgery. Your mum's going to tell you exactly how it is. The website of the place I went to, they do a huge range of different stuff. I don't know whether this is something we could all consider maybe as a season finale getting done but you can get pecs put in. What would you guys get if you get any bit of plastic surgery? That's a very good question Andy Bush. What would I get done? Is this money no object?  Whereby you might get half the abs done but then also get your neck done as well. I don't really know. I've never had abs ever so maybe that might be nice. Turkey teeth? Yeah, maybe. I might get them done. I don't know. It's difficult sometimes when you look in the mirror to work out how you could improve yourself. I'm sure you appreciate Andy. I knew you Baz.  Baz, have you got a good ass? Have you got a good bum? I'll be honest. I'm alright and still got me footy. Have you ever had your bum lifted before? No comments. What would I have done? I'd have hairline. A bit more hairline. Nose reduction slightly. Plugs. That's a Rooney star. I'm sure there's other things. I think that's enough Baz. I don't want it to go too much. It's understated as always best I feel. My Mrs might have a different script. She might have a different list for me. I thought you were nominating her at one point then. I thought you were going to say Christy. My Mrs has got a different list. I thought that could potentially be a problematic route to go down. I wouldn't do that. My Mrs has got a different list. Let's leave it. I was going to say something that probably got me into a massive trouble. I'm not going to say it. You can do it because realistically she probably doesn't listen to this. She's not going to listen. The problem is...  That doesn't. The problem is that my dad will probably listen. He'll be fine. He'll probably laugh at what I'm going to say. That wasn't my dad walking across the screen. He'll probably throw it up at some stage. When we're all round the table or something. Does my dad know what you said about it or something like that? That is literally kind of where he's open. There's no going back from that moment. Let's leave the plastic shades or anything there. Pedda will be a very interesting one to get in on this. I will now go over to my late friend who has arrived. The traffic can travel. I and the sky has cleared the roads for him. He is here. Let's go over to him for the plastic surgery. He's had some plastic surgery. He's fine. He's looking sharp. He didn't need it. No, he did. He's just had it just because he wanted it. It feels like just another excuse to get the train early to me. Maybe. But if you had the money, no object, plastic surgery for yourself, what would you go for? What would you do? Days gone for taking teeth and a couple of abs. Ars implants. Is it the ars implants? If you're going to be anyone these days, you need the backside, don't you? It's all about the Instagram life in it. That's what it's all about these days. To be honest, it's just where I'd start. Do you know what I mean? It's just where I'd start. Are you building from the back? Essentially. I've had them felt well guaranteed in the summer. I'm going to start at the back. What's happened is when he gets around the front, he'll realise there's not much left. I'm waiting for Jangie to build it or not. I've got a face like Dwight MacNeill. When he looks unhappy because we're not winning. I don't know. To be honest, the teeth one is definitely one I'd probably consider. Although you do get that sort of all over like, I don't know, like robot smile. It looks a bit rylan though if you're not careful. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the danger. But you've just got the like. The big contrast, I was watching obviously the jungle last night. And then when it finished, went to make a drink and you know the way, the music, whatever. We had the music channel and band aid came on. Just the music being done. And boy George's, that I've seen the third singer in that. And his mouth looks totally different with his normal teeth. So yeah. It's a real con of like taking teeth. He can afford it though, can he? Do which mate? He can afford it though. He can afford it though, can he? I think so. I think you know, your teeth are important. The teeth are important. I don't think I'd go to take it. I've seen some, I showed you that horror story. I've, yeah. I saw a documentary about all sorts of horror stories there where people like their teeth are really, I mean, I should probably, I should probably sort of put a warning on this that I'm not actually, you know, being critical or derogatory of the dental care across Turkey as a nation. However. I saw that programme and there were in isolated incidents of some horror stories. Yes, Paddy. When you get your teeth done though, right?  That's the trade-off, isn't it? Because you are actually getting rid of your own teeth. And that means you've got to look after the new ones for the rest of your life and stuff.  Pysi, we can't develop some shark technology. They always do. But it's coming. It's coming. I believe it's coming. There must be some. There must be AI somewhere. Has anyone ever had their teeth whitened before? Yes. I had it done for the radio. Was it like pain like no other? Hello. Why would you get your teeth whitened for the radio? Surely that goes against... Yeah. I mean you're right. I got them done for telly more than the radio. But it hurt like nothing else, honestly. Yeah, it's like loads of really sensitive shocks to your teeth all the time. It was horrendous.  And then they put a lamp. It's sort of... It's like some kind of horror torture thing. And you're set right for about an hour. Like a billiard ball. Like it's sort of like... Oh right. ar gwaith a gael wneud o'r wneud yn dweud sefydl y brw i. Mae ydych chi'n rhaid i chi, ond rhaid i chi'n gofynu. Rhaid i chi'n gofynu. Rwy'n gofynu i pedd i ddim yn cael ychydig y byddai.

I don't feel like we have a way of playing football at the moment. I think we play football differently to every other team in the Premier League right now. All the other Premier League teams play a different type of football to us. And I don't know what the answer is to that. Forward I think. I think. I just don't think you can play without forward. But I think two things I'll just say Andy. I'd say that. At the end of the game, I don't think anything that was said at the end of the game a yna yn sicr angen bydd y drwy hyn sefydnad a frawr areetencar. Rym ni gyda aer i chi mewn tyts ar dysgu hyn.

We had Sondol yn dae hom in the FA Cup on the satty we played Liverpool on a Tuesday night. And Moysh made 12, didn't make 12 changes. Made like 9 10 changes. And we got a B3 nill ti eraill, got it at it. And all is think him as well. We'll win on satty against Sondol. We played the full team on the satty. And didn't even beat you yet. Mae'n gwybod B3 yn elty eraill ac o'r atry. All is thinking was well, we'll win on Saturday against Sunderland. We played the full game on Saturday and we didn't even beat the end of the play. I can give you the list, Baz. Matt Ness did it against Swansea. We got bounce 3-0. He ended up on a massive fight with Distan. That was the fight of the full man with Distan. He fell out with the rest of the squad. Cooman did it. We started the season really well. We played Norwich at home. He changed it all and that stopped the momentum dead. The next game we won was something like in Noverham. Westamp. It always happens to us and every year it manages. Do you think he should have played? I know we had a few niggles but you think he should have had like 7 of the first team play. I think he should have gone as strong as he possibly could last Tuesday and then basically gone. We're doing it again. What are you wrestling him for? What are you saying to Wuzdo's fans? You're saying we don't actually care about winning trophies. That's how I see it. The 7 and the first team is not that strong. I was the second string. I knew the thing about the second string. I've probably said this about 10 times this week.  It's not kids. These are not kids coming through. These are not kids coming into the first team. Whether it be Stanley Millsers or Tom Cannons. These are old people who are on their way out. Distan's going to leave at the end of the season. Tom Davis I imagine will leave at the end of the season. Michael Keane, Mason Holgate.  They all know it. We're playing them in a cup game. I don't get that. I don't buy the excuses from Frank Lampard. I've got to play my entire team. You don't, mate. Keep a nice tight-knit squad. Get that trust.  Given all the rallying speeches. Get that together. Go on bat a ball. Then be up for the Saturday. If not more within the next round of the league cup. The other thing as well I suppose with Darren and the way it is as well. If he would have done what Peds said. You go strong and you get a couple of goals up. It's five subs. You can take half of the team. Absolutely. Then just try to get over the last 35 minutes. Wherever you go. We've got through. You lot go on. Keep this lead. If we lose this lead now. We can squarely point the finger at you lot. Don't let this slip. Unlike Peds said then. You've got a game before the league game then. Which gets you red. Exactly. In the words of momentum isn't it? It's been a horrific week all round. Shipping seven against Bournemouth in two outings. It's horrendous. But that said. Can I just categorically say that much as I acknowledge. Like we were saying Andy about the pressure that Frank finds himself in now. Categorically do not want him to be sacked anytime soon. Because we have done this. We have been down this road before.  It's the wrong thing to do. It will be going backwards again and again and again. I'm not saying keep him forever. Obviously things have to improve. Up until fairly recently. Even the last couple of weeks. We've been largely pleased with our development under Frank Lampard. We like what he's about. We like what he says. I know there's criticisms but there's criticisms of everybody. But I categorically do not want to suddenly chop him now. And say let's bring somebody in. Because it would just be another mistake after another mistake. After another mistake that we've been doing forever. I just wonder where the kind of problems are. The striker thing is the issue. I end up watching the Sunderland Birmingham game over the weekends. And Ellis Sims playing up front. I think institutionally, roster wise we've made big mistakes. It all goes back to selling with Charleston and then looking at Calvert Llewyn and thinking that would be enough. That's the reason why it's all fallen apart. Frank has got them playing tighter and all that kind of stuff. I think it's almost like we have a traumatic experience like last season. You get these kind of moments where you get like a flashback. I genuinely felt that this Bournemouth doubleheader was like a real flashback to what it was like. I started to behave as an Evertonian like I was last season. Which was turning social media off. Nowhere near matches of the day. Being really aggis if anyone says anything about it. And it was like post traumatic stress. It really was. That's how I feel about it. The Bournemouth Cup game just felt like whatting them last season. And it essentially was the same team. Which is no wonder it was like whatting. No, you're right though. And the thing about it is the players have been set up to play in a certain way. Because of the players we don't have. And it was always going to be a case of probably running out of steam a little bit. And players have only been able to do so much with what they have. And going back to Dave's point about sacking them. You look at the situation and you think if they know what they're doing. And in January we can bring in a couple of players. Which they don't. You said that, not me. Listen, I'm quite happy to say that. Never have we been sure about anything else. Other than the fact that the Board of Everton Football Club do not know what they're doing. And do not have a watertight plan. No, no, Dave, I totally agree. I'm happy to go record and say that. No, no, no. I go record and say that every day. Dave, don't worry about that. You were talking about Frank. No, no. The whole point is, is that what's the point of sacking another manager if the same people are going to pick a new manager and it's the same people who've been picking them for the last seven years. It's pointless. It is really, really pointless. That's where the changes need to be made at the football club. But that won't happen until someone buys our football club. And you just hope. One thing I would say about Frank Lampard.  He knows where the problems are. I mean we all know where the problems are. We don't make chances and we can't put the ball in the back of the net. So if we get to the 31st of January, no, actually, if we get to the 10th of January and we haven't sorted that situation out, then we are in real, real problems. And it's not even because we haven't bought the players. It's because we simply haven't addressed the situation that we all know we're facing. This team has no goals in it. It bore players who don't score goals. Neil Mulpy and Mike McNeill. Not against those players, but they don't score. They don't score goals. And we have got, and the mad thing is, going back about all these managers, it doesn't matter who the manager is. We've got a history of buying players who don't score goals. That's the fundamental thing, isn't it? In the summer we bought two defenders in Conor Cody and Tarkasgy who can defend. We know that he can defend. But we never bought any players who could score goals. And that is the fundamental problem. You shared with Charles and you're in trouble? You shared something that is, I think, really important if it's real. And that is, if they know what the next step is and what I mean by if they know, they've identified that all of that stuff's under way. And it's a case of, listen, just keep your power to try because the minute this window opens, we've got him and him lined up and that will make our team different. Then we can all go, all right. The famous Bulgarian duo, him and him? Him and him. I think they'd be good if they'd walk into our team right now. But three of our next four Premier League games, that's good, isn't it? Wolves, Brighton and someone else. Someone else that we should be with. But they are three very big in the city where you lose the city. So three of the next four, we need seven points out of them. Three of our own games. Simple as that. We might get back to Boxing Day and Dominic Halvitt-Lewin's fit and Ben Godfrey's fit and Andross Tarn's in the squad. We look a bit stronger. But we got and Dominic had a hat against Wolves. I might end up in the New Year's Honours list. Yeah. You know, we never know this.  Hey, whatever you get up to is up to you. And end up in the New Year's Honours list. But even if that happened and Halvitt-Lewin was brilliant against Wolves and we do what on January 1st or whenever the FA Premier League officers are outing, because you can't do things if they're having a holiday pass. Fair play to them. Fair play. If they're having a holiday pass, we have to be ready to go bang, bang in we come with these, with him and him. In we come with them because I think then it makes sense. If it's scratching around, you've already gone right. Right. What you reckon? Then we are in trouble. If you give Frank Lampard more of the tools. Right. And these results, because there will be people listening and watching and they're absolutely correct, by the way, to go heaven of one, three games of football in 15. There was an excuse. There was an excuse last season. We started with a manatee we didn't want. We lost that forward, so we hit a terrible run. We couldn't get out of it. The manatee came in, got a slight uptane and the fans got on board. It was a case of listening, just please get to me that's for any second and be safe and we did it. But then that was put to bed. This season was supposed to be new and we said three weeks ago, looking good. It's looking like now we're starting to get it. And I think Andy said that he's right. The wheels have come off a little bit. Why have they come off? The players lost a couple of games and confidence has gone and they've gone back to type. I don't know. But if we give him more firepower and the results remain the same, then we do have to look closer to them. I don't know what the Jernstein, but I don't think he's helped himself either changing the team from the palace game and moving on ahead forward. That's strange to me that. I don't think he has either to be honest with you, but again, I don't think he's fundamentally become a bad manager or not the right fit for us. I don't believe in these things happening so quickly. Another proven striker in January would make a huge amount of difference, but what we need to do, and here's the analogy, is in January it needs to be a little bit like a supermarket dash. In other words, don't stroll into the January transfer window and just amble around and fanny it around and wait until everybody else has got all the best picks. We need to know exactly who we're looking for. As soon as that door opens, bang, in, get in, two days, done. Then relax, get your business done early. What they will do is we'll all sit there and we'll watch who Villa buys and we'll watch who Leicester buys and we'll watch who whoever buys. They'd have been quite good for us.  No, that's right. If they don't know who they're buying now, then we're in trouble. I'm concerned. I've said all along we will be fine. I still believe that, but if we do get to a situation where we don't know what we're doing and what is now becoming absolutely critical, then we are in trouble because you're relying on people to get you out of trouble who don't know where the trouble is. I'm not saying they don't, by the way, I'm just saying if that proves to be the case. Some of the other clubs get their business done. Almost they got them done before the window opened and they just confirmed it pretty much. A year ago, Everton done something very uneventing like and had Vitaly Michalenko signed in December for when the window opened in January. Everton have never done that and then they got Nathan Patterson. They've never done that. They've done basically their business in the first week of January. And this time last year, we were all screaming out saying we need new fullbacks. We need this, we need fullbacks. And they went and got them and it was amazing. It was amazing that Everton had actually done that. That was what the real surprise was. So we need to do that again. And Ped, I think we said on something last week, those lads who played last Tuesday, if you were them, they'd done that. They'd done that.  They were like a ghost of Christmas past, weren't they? The team. The cup team. Do you know what I mean? Tremendous reference. I mean, go back to what I was saying earlier on though. The only thing that I'm still worried about a little bit is like, do we have a style of play? Do you guys think we have a Frank Lampard style of play? What is his style of play? What is it? Do you know what? I just think, I don't think he has got one. And I just think that he's been firefighting for almost so long. Because I almost look at last season, and this season is just completely, all last season was just firefighting. He tried to bring a style of play in, didn't work with two, we weren't good enough. And then he's tried to bring a style of play in this season, but I think it's impossible to see what it is whilst you've got no forward line. Because it's not like we haven't, it's not like we've got, we can just go, oh, it's a centre forward missing. It's not, we have no forward line. But the one thing I would say where they feel a little bit sorry for them is that our main centre forward hasn't been available for them. And that's the one thing where I feel like easy bit on them. But I think Andy referred to this before. That's not a surprise. No, no, it's not. That's not a surprise to anyone. It was only a few weeks ago, me and Dave said we both thought he was finished. And that we didn't mean like he couldn't kick a ball. It's just like, it's body. Reliability. Reliability. I said in the summer we shouldn't be looking for a second to them. We should be looking for a replacement for them. To be face it over, to be face it over. Exactly. And this is where they get it wrong. Be better than you've got. This is actually where I always find that a lady is that people think people in football are massively more intelligent than the normal person in the street. We've all been watching football long enough to know how it works. With you watch your football and you see he's getting injured all the time. You know he's got a problem. You know he's got a problem. You know if you watch your football regularly and people keep telling you he's going to improve you, he's not. Because footballers don't improve once they get to a certain age. They might build on what they've already got. But if what they've already got is not good enough. I think things like expecting expecting them to score 15 goals a season. Now when he's 26 and he's never done it, isn't really likely to happen, is it? Anyway, now you're absolutely right. Let's get into the window and get it sorted. Dave, this is the point where you know you've got some different questions moving away from 40. Premier League has done mountain boxing. You take over, Dave, go on. Effectively we were just killing time, Pet, until you got here. I feel honoured. What I thought would be important is the fact that we had other things to talk about other than Everton's performance at Bournemouth in this last week, right? So there's been a few things over the course of this week that I've been in the car driving around and I've just kind of thought I don't understand that, right? Like big issues, right? Now you can tackle any one of these or best equipped to give me, you know, a simple kind of like one-minute explanation of it, but here are your topics that I don't fully understand. Is this aimed at me? Go on. No, no, no, just because you're a worldly man and you're also the sort of man and we did kind of say this before you got here for full disclosure, the fact that even if you don't know the answer, you'll probably give one anyway, right? And that's what I like because, you know, that's good for podcasts. Right, so here are the three areas of things that I don't fully understand. Nearly 39, right? I don't fully understand this, right? Inflation, right? Inflation, which is a big issue at the moment, right? I don't really understand inflation, how it works. I don't really understand that, right? What's the other thing? 3D printing, I was listening to something the other day, I don't understand that. They were talking about potentially sending like NASA sending tools over the internet to space, right? Don't understand that. And then I suppose the internet. I'm in three terms. Inflation is when there's too much money or something. I don't know the exact thing of this. It's nonsense, I know that. It's basically, it is actually, it's when there's the value of things it basically becomes less because there's too much borrowing and there's too much money. It's a way of slowing down the money. It's a way of slowing down the money. It's basically like saying if we were all millionaires, all of us then things would be worth no value, that's basically but it's weird because it is like saying oh you've got more money in your pocket mate we're going to have to sort that out, aren't we? That's what it is. Just the way Dave have taken more money off your brand with you, I don't agree. Taxi driver, I was in a taxi the other day the taxi driver was telling me he was trying to move everyone to a cashless society like they are in China. That was his conspiracy theory there and there'll be cash, there'll be no cash and everything's on cards and the government can monitor what you spend and where you spend it. That's very true. There was a long explanation as to why he'd only accept cash. That's very true and as an ex taxi driver I'll give you an example of that I don't mind saying. So when I was on the cabs loads of people didn't want to work for Uber because when you work for Uber everything is done on a card and therefore it's all traceable and if it's traceable you pay more tax on it. Simple as that. Where when people give you cash in the tip you you should keep those tips but because it's Uber you can't and you get taxed and that's why. So that's inflation. 3D printing. It's very very simple. So 3D printing you can basically 3D print anything all you need is the schematics, the design of it you feed that into a computer and the computer just prints the thing out via the schematics and you have a physical copy of whatever that thing is. So that could be tools it could be food. If the thing you're using to print the ingredients is a food based thing that is edible and can add flavour to it you can use tools. The metal. I mean I've seen it being done but it's incredible. No no you wouldn't have metal you would have something that would solidify into something really really tough. I've seen a metal stuff. Oh 3D printers literally the future Dave it's literally the future because I mean you know I don't like the word amazing and I think it's often overused you know someone comes back from the bar with some crisp and kind of go amazing it's not amazing at all. But this is mind blowing amazing stuff the fact that you can send stuff and effectively like print it somewhere else and that's almost like time travel. Well it is. Imagine if you were the best way to look at it is imagine you were a dentist and you were having to do someone's teeth and you were stuck in them in nowhere and you didn't have those teeth so you could essentially get them printed out and then therefore is the materials in the printer and therefore you were making them on site which means that everything would be cheaper or if you were a surgeon in a hospital and your scalpel had broken or something and it was a made into operation you could just print it out or you know you were sitting off on the moon and you wanted you know moon teeth or pollen teeth. I have a question go on pollen you're out in the middle of nowhere and you get a 3D printer go on isn't pollen where Richard Ash cross from anyway that's not important right now but if for example right Baz imagine that you had something that we all wanted I don't know the latest iPhone or something like that why would we then go on to Amazon or wherever to go and get it when we could just get you to 3D print send it to us and then we have one as well that's a good point I think it's because it's got so many moving parts to it that you would have to print out every single part and then you have to put it together but I know in America the big fear is that and I know this has happened when we were making weapons I guns and then that's where things don't say all that actually work yeah yeah yeah it is busy you put them all together you put it together you can make weapons and guns it's essentially what North Korea what about this though right but like you know you'd watch Terminator 1, Terminator 2 whatever and there's this big thing about the machine becoming sentient taking over and at the moment you look at your printer in the office you've ever seen a robot trying to go up the stairs it's embarrassing the state of robotism what's going to save us? as we speak it's exactly no good but imagine if a computer does become sentient and it's got a 3D printer attached to it it could print anything imagine this would be a great thing for prisoners wouldn't it if they had a printer in there because you could send them guns you could send them like you know lock cutters I'll be honest the only issue is to smuggle it into the prison you'd need my arse after the implant wouldn't you it takes us right back to the beginning doesn't it full circle like the Trojan horse the Trojan arse phenomenal well respected amongst prison smuggling circles how much cargo you can carry I'll be in demand all over it actually so what's going to happen is it's not going to be the 3D printer that is going to be in demand it's going to be the blueprints isn't it the blueprints will be in demand they are smuggable you could have them in your arsenal problem very much so in and out so we used to do a show and we haven't done it for a while called any other business it'd be fantastic so basically we used to talk all the time about the nonsense and it actually started one day while we were talking about Christmas avat which we needed a segment on at some point next week but we generally have a weekly round up of sex robot news and where the sex robot industry was and one of the things where we left it and we need to revisit it is how sentinel those sex robots were becoming and can imagine a sex robot but with a 3D printer in their hands that cover your ears I'm getting me to do it just to see the implications of a sex robot a sentinel sex robot with a 3D printer I saw something yesterday it wasn't sex robot was the movements that he can do now the sluts dropping and everything so you're getting a sex robot there you say Andy said he can't go upstairs you want to see them now mate he can dance, he can run he can jump they're going on gladiator but imagine it now maybe Terminator 2 is on it is on mate sex robot one of our ones that we covered on AOB was into your pan where it was big business some of the stuff that you were getting off to there on behalf of my learned friend Andy Bush there are some people that may have taken it as a derogatory thing that you wanted to talk nonsense with us on a different podcast but actually in this instance I think that actually we will gladly accept your offer and we should talk more of these subjects mate honestly we just we'd have an hour of work in it mad stories they could be anything, mad stories and you just have to take some conspiracy theories is really fantastic and obviously there's no football so maybe it will descend into this let's do it let's leave it there because other gents have got stuff to get on with so once again big thanks to Dave big thanks to Andy take care gentlemen and obviously we will be back next week we can do well cup stuff sex robot more 3D printing maybe maybe we'll 3D print Andy and Dave in the studio and we can do AOB all together I'm going to 3D print me ass on that note Dave Vitty sex robot cut out the middle man print your own Dave we're going take it easy bye goodbye


it's the peerless. Nice. I'm excited for our next session. I'll bring us back on track. Today we're going to be doing a deeper dive or not today. Right now we're going to be doing a deeper dive into WHM, the C-Panel server. Yeah, the C-Panel server is fun because that's actually where everything lives, I guess. Can you take us deeper, pilot? Well, I guess. So what you're looking at right now is, as we said, the server. So that's where all of the accounts live. That's where all the settings for the C-Panels are controlled. We're going to go into that. And it's a really useful space to just get an overview of account statistics for a particular account, but also to make sure that everything is sort of aligned, I would say, on a per-account basis. For those of you who have had domains for a while, this will actually look a bit different. And that's because WHM, C-Panel, has just changed the theme. So just know that that is something we are tracking and aware of. But as always, you can keep that search bar in your back pocket. Yeah, there's a lot of stuff over on the left hand menu. But the search bar is generally the way that we recommend to go. You're not going to need most of the tools on the left hand bar. So just searching for what you need is going to get you there probably faster than trying to navigate back and forth. I would say, though, that we should start with list accounts. List accounts is probably the single most useful page in all of WHM, because it is exactly what it says it is. It's a list of all of the C-Panel accounts. I do want to make a differentiation here between the number of users that you have and the number of C-Panel accounts that you have. So in WordPress, in WHMCS, you'll see a list of everybody who's ever signed in by a single sign-on. That's not what this is. This is everybody who has a C-Panel account. In the WordPress session, we talked about how you get that, how you go through the actual account creation process. These are people who've done that. Right. So then when we say you have up to 500 accounts in your domain of one's own setup, we're really just looking at that number, how many C-Panel accounts you have, not how many people have interacted with your system. In fact, we recommend keeping those records in WordPress and WHMCS around, but this is the only number that we're focused on keeping curated over time. Yeah. I do want to note that terminated accounts are taken off the server. They no longer count towards that number. The number goes down if you terminate an account. If you suspend an account, it's not gone because you might want to unsuspend it at some point in the future. So that still counts towards the number and you see those suspended accounts are highlighted in red. We're going to pop into I Love Domains, which you may remember from the WordPress session, just to see exactly what WHM can tell us about an account. So you have the domain. There's a little button that would let you log into the C-Panel with super admin privileges functionally. We talked about how signing in through WordPress, switching to the user can get you an on-the-ground look at what a user is actually experiencing. Signing in as an admin gives you so much power. IP address, the username for the account, contact, email, the day it was created, where it lives, and quota, disk usage, and package. Let's look at those. We may also touch on the theme paper lantern quickly. So the quota is up to how much space an account is allowed to use on the server. So this account could use up to 500 megabytes at a time. It's not. It's using 67 megabytes because we installed a WordPress site and not 10 WordPress sites. But sometimes you get accounts that are a little bit heavy hitters, people who are doing archival work who need to store a bit more stuff on their account. And there you can go in and you can change the quota. Lauren's opened up the little menu that lets you change the password, the contact email, things like that. Changing the quota says, all right, your maximum is no longer 500 or 1,000 or or no longer 500 megabytes or a gigabyte, 2 gigabytes, whatever you have as the default, we're going to turn that to a higher number. So, yeah, we're going to give about 2 gigabytes. And that means that that user now has lots more space to play with. So if you wanted to install, I don't even know how many times 67 goes into 2000, a lot of WordPress sites, just so many for some reason. Empty ones. Empty ones. Now you can do that. But 30 times. 30 times. That's so many. I have to be useful, you know. Yeah, you always are. But sometimes you just generally have a group of users that need a little more space. So maybe your faculty are expected to be putting a little bit more onto their accounts than the students are. You don't really want to go in and modify the account for every faculty member individually every single time. And that's usually where packages come in. So you see that package WordPress in the classroom. And that's what we call it on this server. Your packages may be named something a little bit different. But what you can do is you can set up a particular package and say everybody whose account comes with this package comes with these default settings. So the faculty package may have 5 gigabytes of space, whereas the student package only has one or something like that. And you, Laura? Oh, I was going to say that. Yeah, that's a great point. That's where we can really start to determine or set up different versions of C-Panel, right? So not only can we talk about the different functions in C-Panel and tweak those on a per package basis, we can do that for applications. And then we can also do that for just the C-Panel account itself. So disk quota, FTP accounts, bandwidth, whether or not they can have sub-domains or add-on domains. Obviously, because this is a demo school, we have a really kind of limited version of C-Panel that's available to users. On your end, you might see something a bit different. I will say in terms of disk space, we kind of recommend that you don't set unlimited disk space because you'll have a couple heavy hitters that will eat into server resources. So even if you want to give the idea that they have unlimited storage and give a larger amount, still set a quota here. I think that will benefit you in the long term. And you'll try to keep those that as unified as possible. It'll be a good kind of alarm bell when you find that they're, oh, they're using five gigs or 10 gigs. Even if that's quite a bit more than everyone else, you can at least go, hey, something's up here and maybe we need to look at the account. And they'll get automatic email notifications that say, hey, you're at 75%. You're at 80%.  Clean up your act? That's what the email says. It's weird. This is like the step before rehab. This is your warning. Clean up your act. So anyway, you can go through here. You can change the package name. Again, like Pilot said, WordPress in the classroom is something very specific for this demo school, but you can have a student versus faculty or advanced versus beginner. And we find that this is a really helpful way of distinguishing two types of experiences in C-Panel, as opposed to just making a lot of one-off changes, because three years down the road, that's going to be a lot to keep track of and maintain. And we find that if you just have two or three different tiers of domains, that's a much more manageable way of administering it long-term. So just something to keep in mind. You can always check to see what package a user has directly from that list accounts. You can see by default, everyone's given the WordPress in a classroom package. So I could very quickly switch someone's package by modifying their... It's actually called a plan here, which is so weird. I've always thought that's so strange for WHM to call it two separate things in the same window, but you could change someone's package from WordPress in the classroom to advanced, for example. If I wanted to edit the package more directly, I could search edit package, and that will pop up right here. So I'm going to click edit package, go back to that WordPress in the classroom, and that will take me back to that window where we just were. So you could make changes to an existing package. I could also add a new package, and this is something that Reclaim can help you with. So that's kind of a good rule of thumb for WHM anyway. We give you the keys to the kingdom, but in fact, we would recommend that you work with us and just let us know what you're thinking about and what you're hoping for, and we can help you set these up. So don't feel like you have to be in the server doing a lot of work. Most of your work will happen in WordPress anyway. So for now, this is one of the places where you would make changes. You can also update the feature list that's associated with a given package. So I'm going to view the default feature list here. It's associated with feature manager. So if I searched that in the search bar, that's what I would see. And this is where I would make changes to the C panel icons that are available to users. So I could come into the search bar, search email, and go in and start turning off email associated icons. There are more available that aren't called email like auto. There's a couple, I think box trapper for example. There's a couple. So for instance, if you want to turn off the email section, just let us know we can take care of that for you, but this is where you would make those changes. So just going into feature manager, choosing the feature list that you want to edit that's associated with a certain package and doing that there. The other thing you can do actually is edit the types of installatron applications that are available to each package. And I know we're talking about different tiers here. I have this all documented. We'll make sure to put it in discord for you. But if I come to access control here, you can see this group section at the top. And I can actually create different groups of applications and then assign groups to certain C panels. So I have this really easy way to, you know, configure each of those tiers for a given C panel. And access control is where we would check those boxes for the applications that are available to end users. One of the interesting ways this is used in practice is for example, UNLV, they will have it so that when a user logs in, they basically have a completely stripped down C panel with only access to the file manager and WordPress. And then you can continue to un, you know, how would you say peel the onion so you can give people more complicated things? I mean, it's a matter of building up packages based on what you expect your community to be using and how you want them to use it. The thing is, is it's not automatically mappable. So some of that will be you changing the package for specific people should you choose or a whole group of people. So keep that in mind. But it's powerful. Yeah. So, Jen, while you were talking, I pulled up this screenshot of a very stripped down C panel so you can see, you know, there it is possible to do that if you're just wanting to provide access to just WordPress, for example, that's something that we can set up absolutely. What else I'm trying to think here about, you know, what else we could touch on paper lantern, but if there's something a little closer to hand, well, maybe an install Tron show them where they can set some of those settings that when you're in WordPress or something else, like do backups, like, you know, do I want to automatically update all plugins, all themes, you know, latest version of WordPress, etc. Yeah, that takes place in install Tron. Again, you would just search it here in install Tron, if I can spell it correctly, install Tron applications installer. That's where we're going here, the editor window for install Tron. And I go to features and you can see all of those settings that exist here. So, for instance, when someone is going to install an application, do we want to prioritize the www version of that domain or do we want to provide it, you know, or do we want to, you know, let folks decide between HTTPS and HTTP. Honestly, I can't, you know, I wish I kind of like the idea of just disabling HTTP, but I know that can bring about a whole other set of troubleshooting problems. So, we do keep both there. You can scroll down here and say, you know, when are we sending emails to folks by default from install Tron? You know, do we want to give the option for folks to enable WordPress multi site, things like that? That all happens here. But again, as before, if there are certain settings that you want to remove, just let us know and we can help. The other thing that I think is really cool about install Tron is you have the ability to see the applications that are installed on the server outside of the accounts that they're in. So, we're in a demo school right now. So, you can see a lot of those have been suspended or, you know, are just sort of exploratory sites. But I love that you can go through and see, okay, how popular is Omega right now on our demo school? And I can see some of those that exist on the server, a whopping seven applications out of 170. So, it kind of gives you a sense of those ratios early on too. It's interesting here too, because you mentioned this a bit. But if you look at the featured applications in community building, again, you can remove many of these applications if you want to strip down just even the offering with an install Tron of what people see. A lot of people say, you know what, we don't want e-commerce applications as part of our rollout. So, there is a way for us to remove entire swaths of applications from install Tron should you need to. So, just let us know. They are all related, aren't they, Lauren, between like changing the package, adjusting the features and then making sure install Tron can reflect that pretty well. There is a kind of like a process where they're all related. So, again, if you have questions about that reach out to us, we can help you navigate that but also know that you can have applications that only start and are afforded to a few people, not to mention splots applications and some other custom stuff we do. Yeah, it's kind of always a really dependent on exactly what your school's objective around bringing this on is. There are definitely folks who want those applications there just so people can get familiar with what's even possible, even if they don't use all of it or none of it or most of it. But it's also a lot of things to look at and be totally not can be is, I think, if you're new to it, just really overwhelming when you're first starting. So, there's definitely more than one way to look at that. And that usually is wrapped up in support conversations too, where we say, okay, what are we willing to offer versus what are we willing to support? And I think those two can be separate answers, you know. I've seen some domain schools that will say, you know, we're going to give you access to everything, but know that we're only going to support WordPress, Omeka, Drupal, and Scalar. And that's it. You know, and we have to make our own choices like that, even with reclaim hosting, because there's no way that you can be an expert in every application. So, I think that's a really good point. And I think when people come to us, one of the things they ask is, you know, how do we communicate to our community what we're expected to support and what we aren't? Well, if you have that question and you're afraid that someone's going to install, like, Nuke PHP, which hasn't been updated, I think, for, you know, a long time, I believe. You know, it may just be like, we're going to leave that one out, or we're going to leave swaths of the mountain keeping the ones we're comfortable with. So, again, a case-by-case basis. But given that we have a little bit more time for this session, I wouldn't mind getting back into WHM and just showing you some, a couple of options you can do right from that list bar on a particular account, which I think is quite slick. So, if you go into WHM and you go into iLoveDomains, for example, which, you know, back to that list tool, that's where you'll spend most of your time if you're ever in WHM, and that could be a big if. But if I go to iLoveDomains, you'll notice next to it, there's a plus button. And that plus button has some actual functionality that we will see again in WHMCS. And you'll see it will say change quota, change plan, modify account, also terminate account. There's also a place where you can decide to suspend or unsuspend the account and leave a little message. Well, those functions are actually also available to you in WHMCS. And one of the things we'll repeat again in that session is, you know, before you terminate an account or suspend an account here in WHM, it might make sense to do that from WHMCS, because it reinforces something we already mentioned in the first session was basically that's a really good accounting and log of everything you've done in WHM. WHMCS keeps a sophisticated log. So you have those same functions from WHMCS. And I would recommend actually early use WHMCS to do stuff like suspend, terminate, or other kind of functions that might have a long term tail that you want to refer back to and say, Oh, did we suspend this? Or Oh, did we terminate this? Yes. That's a great point, because I think I love that you have the option to do that here in a pinch. But, you know, we'll show WHMCS and best practices where you should do everything there first to keep the record book.  I also it is worth noting that this C panel icon, I think Pilot mentioned it earlier too, will take you directly into the C panel account for a given school. So if you're not school for a given user, so if you happen to be here and want to pop into their C panel account quickly to see, you know, what apps they've installed, great, but just know that this is not the version that the user sees. And I'll be honest, when I first joined Reclaim and was looking at WHM for the first time, I didn't even know that this could take you into the C panel. So it took me like years to learn that it's embarrassing actually. I love that it's a it's a column called C panel. And every like, if you're not looking at one account like we are, it's just the same logo over and over again. And it's interesting too, because some of the things you can do in WHM, you actually can't do in WHMCS. For example, you can't change quota in WHMCS, but you can in WHM. So keep that in mind, if you ever want to do a one off change of a quota for a faculty who went over as Pilot addressed brilliantly goes over the 500 megabyte mark, you can only do that in WHM on a case by case basis, or by using the packages. But the packages you can do inside of WHMCS as they're set up, right? So yeah, you can basically determine what packages you want to have here, and then you're able to tweak that in WHMCS. So yeah, once you have domains set up and configured the way that you want it, once you have C panel looking the way that you want it, the need to come in here becomes less and less because you can suspend and terminate in WHMCS. You can change the look and feel of C panel from WHMCS in that way, and you have your record there as well. So you don't really need to be in here as often as you think, but we of course want to make sure you have the resources available to you to make changes and be in here as you need it. Yeah, I find that WHM in general is more the layer of reclaim. Should something go wrong with your server? Should we need to look at something with DNS or refresh that? We'll often spend our time in WHM, whereas a lot of the work you do, even just long term for record keeping and account management, might be useful to learn and get a sense when we talk about WHMCS, but the two are directly related. And the last thing I'll say here, just as we're leaving, or before we wrap at the very bottom of the list accounts page, you have that download all records to a CSV file. So you have a really nice way to grab a list of C panel accounts, which is awesome. Reclaim can also provide this list for you at your request. So know that that's possible, and we'll talk about last login scripts and things later on when we talk about analytics and assessment. But for now, if there are any questions about WHM, like I said, we'll put some stuff in Discord, different documentation and resources available. But if you have any questions, just list them in Discord now. And we'll also have time for Q&A, of course, later today too. Great. Yeah. WHM for life.

As you travel through Sibyl Canyon on Highway 34 outside of Wheatland, Wyoming, you pass by the Tom Thorne Beth Williams Wildlife Research Center. Have you ever wondered what goes on here? The center got its beginnings in 1948 when the Wyoming Game and Fish Department purchased 3,000 acres of land, known as the Johnson Creek Wildlife Habitat Management Area. It became a research center because the area provided easy access, adequate space for pastures and holding pens, and had diverse terrain, cover, and weather conditions. It is also close to the University of Wyoming and State Veterinary Lab. It was the first facility of its kind and remains one of the country's leading wildlife research facilities on brucellosis, chronic wasting disease, and pneumonia. Research facilities are closed to the general public due to safety reasons. However, semi-natural enclosures like the one seen behind me here are used to house bison, elk, deer, and bighorn sheep. People driving by on Highway 34 can see these structures and at times the animals as well. From the University of Wyoming Extension, I'm Rachel Meeler, Exploring the Nature of Wyoming.


Hello, I'm Sam Matzik, senior software engineer at IBM. And so my name is Major Hayden. I work at Rack Space as a principal architect, working on our private clouds. And this presentation we're talking about the open, open, open cloud, which is open source from top to bottom, completely open architecture. There we go. So first off, we'll talk about open power. So how many people are familiar with the power chip, like the power architecture? Anybody? Okay. So really the unique thing about open power is that it delivers a power chip in a machine that looks a whole lot more like your average x86 machine that you're gonna see in the data center. The components are similar, the way you provision it is similar. It makes it easier for you to bring that into the environment. That's just one of the many facets. You also get other benefits such as open source accelerators, you can actually join these groups that you see here on the slide and customize it. So if you say, hey look, I wanna do something different with the board or I wanna do something different with the chassis, there's folks here who wanna help you with that. So you have the opportunity for more performance, more customization. And as we'll talk about on the next slide, the great thing about it is that it's the same tools that you're used to, the same operating systems that you're used to. In fact, you're still using the same Ubuntu, the same CentOS or Fedora or Debian or whatever you use. It's the same OS. You're using the same Linux kernel that an x86 machine would use. When you run OpenStack, you're using the same components. It's the same Nova, it's the same everything. And then everything throughout the stack, you have the same options to customize as you would on x86. So the real value there is that you have this ability to customize, you have this ability to get faster performance with accelerators, you have an ability to get faster IO, but it's all the same things that you're used to. Major said, you can see that the entire stack is all the same logos you're used to. To focus on the bottom, on the bottom is where we have the open power hardware architecture. And that includes open BMC. The firmware is open. The chip design is open. The mother board is open. The design of the interconnects to all your IO devices, your network card, your storage card, that is all open. If you want to see what's going on there, you can get the specs for that and see. You can look into the chip design, you can look into the source code of open BMC, you can look into the source code of the firmware. It's completely open. And if you've ever used something like a BMC from a major provider, like maybe Supermicro or Dell or HP or something like that, you've always said, man, I wish I could change this interface or I wish I could add an API or I wish this wasn't here or I could get access to this information. This is the platform that gives you that opportunity to go in there and do those customizations. Everything is open source from top to bottom. So you say, great, I want to get started. How do I do this? Where will I go? Well, we have open power cloud reference designs. The references and designs include the open power servers to get, how to rack and cable them, the components to get the hard drive, solid state disks, et cetera, network cards to put in the open power servers. And there's reference designs for databases of service for private compute cloud for just, you want to stand up a CEP cluster, you just want to stand up a Swift cluster by itself on the open power hardware. There's reference designs out there that tell you all the piece parts to go get, as well as once you get them, how do you set up all the toolkits on? How do you set up all the software on there? And so what we have is we have an open power cloud toolkit, which makes use of already existing open source deployment methods. If you look, there's a lot of, this slide's very busy, but right in the middle, you can see the CEP block on the right and the open stack block, the way that those are configured and installed is CEP Ansible and OpenStack Ansible, which are open source projects for deployment. And so what we've done is with the hardware reference architectures, there's an input file, it's a YAML file that lists all of your servers and knows how they're cabled and how they're plugged into the switches. And we've automated, we've tied together all these open source deployment methods so that you can get a cloud up with very, very little human interaction. You set up the simple file you're feeding in the beginning. It uses Cobbler to go and install your operating system. It has Ansible, open source Ansible Playbooks to go set up all your networking inside your operating system because when you set up an open stack cloud, you wanna have a private management network. You wanna have a private storage network for your CEP clusters to get to your compute host, et cetera, it sets all that up. And on top of that, the tool could also go in and talk to your switches and set up all the VLAN taking on all the necessary parts to let the VLANs go through between all your nodes. But then it pre-populates all the inputs for your CEP Ansible run. So your CEP cluster gets set up and populated automatically. It sets up a lot of the inputs for open stack Ansible. Open stack Ansible is a great open stack deployment tool. Major is very familiar with these, the core on open stack Ansible. There are a bunch of variables you can do, but if you've already installed the operating system and you know all of the IP addresses and everything that you've done, it pre-populates all of those and takes a pause so you can go in and tweak the other variables that you want for your open stack install with open stack Ansible and kick off the run. And then the run continues and installs your open stack cluster across all your nodes. And then it goes on and continues to install, set up and configure elastic stack, which some people may know as the Elk stack, as well as Nagios and configure common plugins in there. And at the end of it, with very little human interaction with open power cloud toolkit, you can go from top to bottom and have an open cloud running open source software on top of open hardware. And I think sometimes this, you know, especially getting your head wrapped around power, which is a little bit of a different beast and a different way to set up a system. I think a lot of folks will say, well, hey, all this openness sounds great, but I don't understand. My business is not interested in getting involved in hardware. That's totally fine. There are vendors out there right now. So Rackspace and IBM and a whole bunch of other names you saw there on the first slide. We've gotten together and created a platform called Barilie. And it's literally a system that you can call a manufacturer and they can build it for you. And there's a specific excuse that you can actually order and say, look, I'm not familiar with power, but here's what I'm trying to do. And you can actually just go pick those things literally off the shelf, get them racked up and use these standard tools to get all the standard cloud components deployed on the infrastructure. That would say thank you. And does anyone have any questions? So that could be a whole talk in itself. So we could maybe catch up on that one outside. I think it really depends on what you're looking for and where you have performance limiters in your current deployment. So some people may see a huge boost by going to power and some people see a little bit less. So I don't know the exact cost on Barilie right now. It really depends on how you configure it and what comes in the machine. Obviously if you're just getting a basic power machine with a small amount of RAM, it's gonna be very different versus if you fill it up with GPUs and try and do acceleration and things like that. Yeah, so, and that was your speaking specifically about Barilie. There's other open power servers as well. And with the power-based architecture, you can oftentimes get denser workloads. And so rather than just looking at cost, and cost is competitive, the cost by itself is competitive with x86. But you can't look at just cost alone. You have to look at price performance. So price performance of open power systems are, depending on the workload, we can usually get much higher price performance numbers on open power servers than on other architectures. And yeah, and depending on the configuration, I mean you can get almost 200 cores that you have access to in a server, which is pretty tremendous. But you also have the option to back that down to a smaller amount of cores. So if you're, let's say for example, you're running a very large database that maybe is licensed based on core count. You have the option to say, hey look, I don't want 200 cores. I wanna back that down to a smaller number. And so that way you still get great performance, but yet your licensing costs are less than what you might have on x86 or a different chip. And maybe we can talk more after. I'll open up. Does anyone else have any more questions? Okay, so the question was, why would someone leave Intel to go to power? And I will cycle back again to the price performance. If you can get two x price performance on power for the same workload, so the price performance quota, where you can get twice performance for a given cost, that would be one reason why, because you can do more workload on the power than on Intel. It's all about the right workload on the right system. So, I mean Intel's proven itself that it can take a wide variety of workloads and run them very quickly, which is fantastic. I mean, it's got a huge market share. But for certain workloads, for certain companies, you find that putting it on power, you can get quite a boost. Some of that's the power chip itself. Some of that's the IO interconnections. And some of that's what you can actually do in the machine when you have all those components in there. And yeah, we could talk for a whole hour on that if you wanted to. We could geek out on that. Anything else? Question was, do we have any figures on network performance? The bandwidth, their open power systems, I don't know the exact numbers. I am a software engineer, not an electrical engineer, but they do have, I believe, more PCI lanes. And so when you're talking network performance and you could put 100 gig ethernet in there, but you can have more PCI lanes to the core. And then the core has wider bandwidth. I know that it has wider bandwidth to memory as well. So I'm not exactly sure what you're looking at for network performance. I mean, you can put 100 gig ethernet in open power systems as well. All right, well, thank you all very much. All right.

A lot of people still don't know that the United States is still holding innocent people captive in Guantanamo Bay. Twenty years on, there are still innocent people that they renditioned from around the world, took to Guantanamo Bay. They know they're innocent.  Right? Unbelievable.
