I promise you but um So we go about the week now. This was a big week because uh, when did does anybody uh Did anybody start or did anybody watch me follow it? When did lcq start? right lcq started I want to say three weeks ago four weeks ago chat. Is that when lcq started I want to see lcq. Obviously the last chance qualifier is the last tournament of the year for the ea major So everybody's grinding it. Um top 48 on xbox and playstation will be in the tournament um It started pretty much right after the dc channel. So I don't think it started jane wherever did that's crazy So oh jane we're 28. There it is. Okay So since the beginning of the leaderboard chat We waited for this update Did we not because of the first because you kind of forget what the gameplay is like because everybody's on dc You get introduced back into the salary cap back into the mutt mode back into this How do I want to build my team to stay in the third mode? You get put back into this the mode that volterx one with no quarterback So we get put back into it We play it for two weeks Everybody complains. What are the main complaints about chat? That's what I want to know after the first two weeks What are the main complaints about? Be complain about what you can still win with no quarterback um, when they don't have a quarterback, there's you know, there's A thousand cap on defense is hard to score against that That is the main things we talked about that was what the main things and since then since Since ea got a good sample size of our gameplay and a good sample size of our thoughts And when I say are I mean, you know the top, you know competitive players the top 5100 competitive players You know, they got a good They got a good dosage of that data and how we're playing and what we think about the game So we waited and we told we're told there was going to be cap updates You know, there were going to be updates to the cap some abilities were going to be lowered some abilities were going to be Raised and uh, we were excited about it as a community. I know I was as a Excuse me as a passer. I was excited. I said, what are they going to do to help uh passing be more prominent or passing be more usable or passing be more Now I don't want to say I don't know if the word's easier, but maybe the word is easier make passing a little bit easier Make running a little bit more difficult stop letting people that run have you know, thousand cap all defenses So we waited and we waited and we thought this would be the update to save the mode We thought that and not maybe we didn't think that but we hoped that we hoped that said that's how we felt We hoped that this mode would save this mode would just Change the entire landscape of sorry cap and I'll be the first to tell you it did none of that did none of it I I this was pretty much for me was the most useless Sorry cap update ever really It could have been the same as if we didn't even even have an update 1000 percent if we didn't even have an update. It's literally the exact same mode It's the exact same game. There is no update in fact In fact, and I will take it to this western the only people in the world That were affected by this update Were people that ran New Orleans with quarterback blast. That's it. Those are the only people that disaffected Substantially. Yeah, it might have affected you guys. You might have got might have been 10 cap over five cap over whatever it may be But the only as as we look I'm gonna take a look at the actual updates We can take a look at these actual updates and see How they're looking. Let me move this over here. No, seriously like it is the only Here we go, right? Inside stuff something here we go inside stuff something that was actually pretty good That we could have used to stop the run that went up in cap No, outside or went up in cap run stopper went up in cap And then the pass rush things they went up a little bit, you know for me, uh Honestly For how powerful these pass rush abilities are Especially uh edge threat elite pass rush elite all these Going up to 50 cap for me is like, why would I have power specials now when I can have pass rush elite? That's only five more cap really You know armed by one of five cap one of five now you see all these things You see all these updates to the cap 10 cap 10 10 was pretty much the biggest update, right until we come down here to fast break is up 25 cap You can count pretty much add all these other updates together Right and add them together. It won't be up 25 cap You know So for for me, uh, this is I don't think there's one person that said fast break is bad fast break is really good I'll be the first to tell you as y'all can't even see this on the screen, but Fast break is really good. It really is But the thing is it has a huge weakness and the huge weakness is that you will fumble the football You know if you guys watch me play Or anything like that, you'll see you fumble the football. That is the huge weakness of fast break 1 million percent But it was deemed the number one thing they had to update. That's what it was deemed ea said That's what we need to make more cap Let me go out here. This is the passing ones. We did think if they lowered some of these passing things It would it would help the game I guess they lowered a lot of these So little that I mean it's like It's like I guess post-special I guess things are lowered a little bit to help passing for the most part I mean the number one thing that wasn't lowered is is escape artists, you know I mean we lowered a lot of these I Wonder if if I don't know I get I just think it's impossible to play this game I think it's impossible to play this game let me out passing As a full passing offense with the pocket quarterback So that for me a lot of these pass the pocket lead six feet lead pass lead elite All these things pocket that I uh, I really feel like Even conductor conductor is something that in the past was so so good for so many years Yeah, the mobile quarterbacks don't get it anymore. So these these things to me are yeah, obviously From the outside looking in they help the passing game, but that's really not That for me, that's really not substantial updates of passing game at all because there's simply things that people won't use Are aren't effective in high level gameplay at all you know So For me, uh, yeah, I as far as I'm concerned. I was I was highly Now these I said that these should be almost free These the the x-factor abilities the ones you have to reach the get and actually have the like Like I feel like these uh, these should be damn near free Maybe not a defensive ones. Maybe not wrecking ball or I don't know, but we see them so rarely honestly We see these so rarely in um In competitive men that honestly from a viewing standpoint, it'd be cool to see a lot of these guys glow up Or something like that. I think it'd be something cool. And I don't think they're really overpowered I don't think it obviously most I don't know. What somebody in the chat say most you know, uh I don't want to hear most that's not a real one the rest of these. I'm really not sure which one would be Overpowered honestly, even defensive ones unstoppable force. Obviously it's a good tough ass Ken, but you know, if you get three sacks, you should be going you know so But like I said, this update for me what was uh, you might as well had not had an update that that's how it was We would be honestly for me. It would have been better without update. I I between power specialist 10 cap fast break, uh 25 cap. I went up. I was 35 cap over when I looked in my team 35 cap over you know So for me it definitely like I said, I don't know who thinks this update did anything positive to the game literally I could agree that nobody Would nobody would say this update was positive There's honestly it could have been no update and would have been the same exact thing really and I I would be I would be Surprised to find any of you guys in chat and you guys on youtube that think this update was any good Honestly, uh, I think it was a complete waste of energy a complete waste of resources From what they came out and did not improve the game at all did not improve the gameplay Uh a tad honestly, I mean For me, uh, major changes could be happening. Honestly, what do we got like three weeks left for the leaderboard? I feel like there's not we're not I doubt they're going to do another change, right? They're not going to do another change. I think this is it You know what I'm saying chat? I think this is the end of the updates and everything or the end of the End of yeah, I think this is the cap that we're going to play on I don't know if this is the cap that Madden bowls when we play on I could see them doing something after last chance maybe tweaking it a little bit Uh, but we shall see what I said. I was I was thoroughly disappointed in This update and what it did for uh For salad gas especially for me. I mean, I don't that's not always all about me, but I but it killed me Um killed me but uh as far as everybody else I don't think anybody would would have said this was a positive update But that's all and we'll see I said, I don't think we'll really have another one. Um But I said you guys can tell me if you think it was good The clint I listen we talk about clint You're talking to me True styles. Did you say that shout out to the sub man? But for me clint, uh, obviously I have a relationship with clint as he's a friend of mine. I guess uh, yeah, he's a good guy and he really Takes a lot of pride in what he does and and You guys always spend all day just adding them just just completely just you know just And this goes to the point where like man, I I don't want to say this community It's not really us as competitive people. It's really just bro like man and people in general man Because this is how we do man because let's look at twitter right here. This was um This was interaction between k-man. We all know k-man now This is a joke that's been a running joke all year Ha ha ha and joke and as we say joke joke was probably the first one really doing this My cousins want stars to be stars. They're eight years old. Let's put the more abilities in the game or whatever it may be So for me, you have came right here my eight-year-old cousin really loves passing the ball But he can't drop back because three past rush elites You know, it's pretty much a joke to where help help the kids learn how to pass It's a completely sarcastic A sarcastic joke of a tweet one million percent it is it is just a backhanded uh, what's the one like just a Non-sensible sarcastic tweet one million percent and they all are it's all for jokes and giggity giggities, right? And clint who says all right, I will respond He says this sounds like a great opportunity to teach your cousin about how the game of football is about making adjustments and improve An importance of a strong o-line some with abilities of their own, right? So for me, I mean then he's pretty right right because I at the end of the day So I'm gonna look with the sub So y'all get some my bed. Will you act right, bro? Anyway Yes, and clint was down. Honestly when I sat and read it. Obviously it's easy to kill him. Oh, you don't care about man But it makes sense Right, it kind of makes sense You know, like bro, maybe I go get a uh An offensive line ability if I'm really worried about pass protection You know, but for me it's it's it's really I don't know how to explain it. It's kind of it's insensible to Expect the offensive player to get offensive line abilities. It's it's really kind of Damaging to the offense. I want to say You know Uh, yeah, I don't know what drink. I don't know what drink comment was You know Now this guy dustin He said he don't care about your cousin. That's what he said spend more money.  Honestly, can we say at the end of the day? Clint it made sense But maybe to stop some of these d line abilities. You should get some offensive line abilities Which probably would work it might work it might not I for one am cool with my 14 caps going up against the 100 cap defensive linemen I'm cool with that I'm saying But honestly when we look at it it would take for what it is. It kind of makes sense Maybe maybe you need some offensive line abilities if that's what you're worried about as far as the pass rushers, right? Now So now this guy says but what he got out is clint wants you to spend more money I didn't get that out of that at all, you know You know Now this guy can't stop 146 now.   I don't know what this guy looks like. That's barry sanders Funk you could code the game You know anybody that says code the game in an argument, bro They're a super bot or mechanics. Those are the two Bro, if you hear code in the game or mechanics, bro, if they say mechanics, bro Just stop listening to everything they say one million percent.  I mean, it's a good point My man hawk said the community would love when you stream some Some weekend league so we could see the issues while you play a game Now click my sucking man, bro making the game don't mean he'd be good at it, man, you know They don't work now. I don't know. I didn't really try him and honestly, I feel like I feel like they kind of work I remember secure pass block. We had him beginning a year before the double team feature They were kind of good And this guy's krill says ability these nuts and then this guy says ha ha ha ha Look ability these nuts like y'all.   It's not this is not ice hockey The home team doesn't get the last change Like at what point do you have that?  This guy's his second comment so far Is this x-factor is this you? I said he got comment twice so nice.    Ha ha ha, but yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you're the twa.  That's funny. Ha ha. He's not in nfl no more.    I don't know what game y'all play. I really don't know what game y'all play that y'all bring up press this much I I have never noticed it and that's with The shittiest receivers to the best receivers Now this guy wants a 42nd play clock. Jesus christ. Okay How's rushing three when blocking five? after me First of all Press is decent, but it's not like oh my god. I know no, but I'm saying it's not like but it's not like Oh my god is I need I need to have beat the press ability Like I feel like this I feel like as an offensive player is my job to be able to beat the press Like between motions between the play calls and between my wide receivers what routes I put them on I feel like I feel like a good passer is not going to deal not gonna I feel like a good passer is not going to lose because the press is too good. That's just how I feel That's how I feel about that honestly That's how I've always felt about press really plus honestly I I've ran tight and then I guess the wide chips you could prep but tight you I feel like tight You can never press that shit. I don't know.   I just don't even reply to you need at least 100 followers for me to talk to you I'll be honest or at least a picture of yourself Like I don't know who anthony is right, but he got a couple followers, but he got actually a picture of himself I would talk to him Oh here go double how many adjustments did you need to make and your all your two nfl games you played Your game is shit.    Like you know how like I'd be upset like They'd be killing me bro. I can't even imagine bro.     I can't stop stretch all these kids That's all they say am I lying They all bro everybody thinks For real I gotta find the ones that ass I gotta find the ones That that that run stretch because I've never found them.  They just want to you know saying You should teach you how to blitz and put db and put contain so he can't be blocked No chris the first of all they're ten followers.  Just literally terrible Now this guy dog nation I he has deon sanders. This is a picture right here.   I'm surprised. He didn't go d1 honestly I'm surprised I am surprised That he didn't go d1 Oh my god, dude Clinton buddy in all seriousness. I've stayed silent and spent much of time thinking about abilities My conclusion at an ability is inherit learning the game of football Bro, y'all want to learn the game of football?   Get out of the house That's it. Get out of the house If your goal is to teach the kids football through madden, he's never gonna learn Like holy shit, man I don't even want to read and learn this shit no more Sign the kid up in the pewee league Nah man, these comments will get to me.  Who throws it other than Wesley? Who throws in the triple covers down the field consistently? Who does that? Who does that successfully? Who does that?    I I want to run in the person that throws in the triple covers What ability do you need to throw in the triple covers?   You can be a billionaire, right?  No that that's how that's how human beings are They will find some way like they will find some way Oh, I just made a billion. It's oh, you don't got 2 billion That's what they'll say the broken motherfuckers The dude working at walmart Ryan Chandler, uh, he got a picture of his dog Probably sees dudes with no like there's nobody good in these My favorite part is blocking seven against four blitzers out of dime one four six anybody that says Anybody that adds like the dime or big dime or you know two Anybody says anything up in the one for it?  They are pure shitters. They're not even advanced shitters.   Seriously Like and that's crazy really thinking that bro Even if I win most of my games that they be lying so bad, bro. They be lying so bad Even if I win most of my games If you can't actually recognize that the gameplay for this year's game is not good. You should just resign You probably you should probably be deactivated again instead of coming back at pro players to defend a subpar product Like what? Subpar he literally made the worst sports game of all time This is somebody literally woke up yesterday. If this is the worst sports game of all time You woke up yesterday Honestly, it might you might have played this and like mba live 2020 Oh, oh here goes this guy again. Here goes our offensive lineman. He came back for seconds chat He came back for seconds Or are you the also the one who said there isn't any superpowers? Why would we need abilities if we're trying to play realistic?     We're learning today chat. Do not use on twitter devs mechanics.  I've ever seen. All right chat. This is what I want to know chat together Do we know any other game devs in the history of gaming? Let's go. Let me hear some Does anybody know any of a any other Gaming devs. Okay.

It's that time of the year Anyway, I agree with you Lamar journey again. That's a good tweet.  I don't bro.  If your name was like jamal 13 or something. I would know But your name is long hair.  I'll be honest I I'm not mad at that We don't talk enough about this.   Bro, y'all people that come back for seconds are crazy Uh, this is fun for me. Honestly, uh, it's fun for me to read how people react to clinton That's like my favorite thing in the world. It really is Guys lighting up.   It's good for your soul. I laugh seeing people play man every day If my if my if I was president of the united states my first action would be to shoot you into the sun Five followers and clinton responded probably want to see yo He was definitely joking.  It would make sense It's not your fault the game sucks But people do only play it because we love football and we are used to matt and filling our off-season void Okay, mr. Fun. Okay, not because man 20 is fun and has great gameplay physical appearance and aesthetically It's the best man ever gameplay though is trash Man does look good. I'm not mad at you Matt mad graphics aren't pretty tough. Oh, mr. Funk came back for seconds. Okay.  Okay, mr. Funt I see your name affiliated to the EA higher ups and since we live in an age where I can cry a river to River right to you.   I want to feel the punt I could get 30 yards on from my 15 one day without moving him there Bro, this mr. Funt is spitting. Yes.  I agree.  No, I agree with this I want I want to see things like scum kicking gone AI not fielding kicks that are on the sideline bounce to the two-yard why people hound you You can literally get safety don't kick off. I need to click on to fix your AI to prevent it Mr. Funt is spinning I yes jp one day. Where do you want to fill the pun? No, honestly, all I gotta do is let me feel the pun every time if I want to move him out the way I can move him out the way. That's all You guys try too hard to make the game for all types of ages And you make the game for adults kids won't like it. It'll be too hard If you make it for little kids, adults will think it's too easy. Cheesy.    We needed that comment, bro You're 11 people like that. Shit.  Here go risky If you guys show you cared at all about actual gameplay Maybe you want to be so frustrated and hostile But people think you don't care because you patch legitimate coin making methods instantly But we are still waiting dealing with bugs from the games or laces Here we go. Or remember it's a game and not get hostile at all. There's plenty ways to express your displeasure Reflect on things before you say them.  Here go. Here go my anthony akun bro. I'm sorry, bro.  I don't want to read no more funds, bro I don't because I think highly of fun. It could only get worse I could only get worse for fun I'll be honest. It could only get worse the more fun. I read I'm telling I feel like it's gonna go downhill. I I think fun is actually got his head on his shoulders right now Here we go. You ready? Bro fun put out another tweet Another banger on twitter in today's monetization market you should expect nothing less I get you aren't Andrew Wilson or whoever is the greedy one and just followed orders and try to make a good game every year With short notice, but we just have expectations because ea makes a lot of profit. Okay like chat you guys can like these tweets too Your servers are are actually pretty good despite many issues compared to two carats.    He's still mad about punts.  Oh no, I gotta see this It's a solo. He's restarting it. He got beaten solo I mean he's got Vic. Oh, you can run like that. Okay. Oh, he got the real Vic highlights.  I can't compete with this motherfucker. I can't compete bro. I'm done.    This kid's a demon What else he got? Oh, he got more. There's more Oh, this is actually against somebody.  He got bunch D. He got bunch D, bro. Oh little cover three deep half Okay, he didn't change this guy. Okay. He's on vine miller if he presses this guy at the line This is my burner if he presses the guy bro. I love it I mean Okay, get guard the corner out. That's it. That's it. No, he didn't throw at you. Did he I mean, that's your fault my G What else? Oh, bro. I'm this is heaven right now boys Okay, a little split close. Okay Okay, okay. He got time here. Oh, oh, hey, hold on chat.  Let's take a look at it. Come on boys.    Hold on click. What I'm supposed to leave wrong. Damn.  This is the one I just watched. I guess this is the one I watched Yeah Oh, oh, he's versatile. He got styles What team is he bro? You see the white team and red team I want to laugh at him, bro He's the white team I like I like I like I like his cover four drop one rusher one spy I like how he uses the cloud makes his defense a little more versatile You don't know if he's going to guard the flat or guard the middle man hunt is really fun Is really on top of it. Okay, laurence taylor alert See, I like this. I mean user and laurence taylor isn't the most wise thing you could do I mean, can we be honest? My man is getting missled right now boys I mean he's oh double d-pack. Oh, this would bag me bro. This right here.  I lost that's it chat lost Like you put this on my field. I know he has hard flats, but if you put this on my field, I lost Dickhead I mean this dude don't do shit, but healing and talk. Oh, did he say anything back yet?  That's all I want. I don't want much. Anyway, man. I'm done talking about fun, bro It's just it gets to the point where it's like, bro. Is this really how we treat Is this really how we're going to treat?  Why would he ever talk on twitter? If that's how we all complain about you feel me chat like bro like But the hardest thing for me to realize and I have realized it every day even more and more the last Four or five years is that those are the people we got it.  Now, I don't know what happened. I'm not really hip on i'm kind of out of the loop Now I heard this run D was ran on stream and I heard it was tough right This happened. I want to say yesterday chat protect or correct me if I'm wrong You guys know more than me than this situation, bro Did you have fun message bro? That's a good question I'll be having fun playing man.  Um, that was really tough, right? And somehow we got ran on stream and got out for the world, right? Uh So naturally I would do the same thing by me listen And we're gonna talk about ebooks and this is all gonna be talked all be tied into ebooks as well, bro. It really is. Um It's all gonna be tied into ebooks, but this is my point. Uh, I don't know how I don't know. I've never been the best at hiding things like as far as you know Let me keep this for when I need it type of good person because one of my philosophies is like I don't know. It's it's tough for me to ever like really see something being that good, right? And then like Saving it like when I find something that's kind of good Like I'll keep trying to run it on in the in the middle of a game, you know, that's just how I am and it's it's it's bad I guess essentially so i'm a bad example for this But most people that find things or or they want to sneak up with things They really don't show anybody that and and the best example I can give you this year Uh, Joker EMB man, they had the nasty streak on the Eagles, right?  I actually joke only really lost because he put jordan howard in the game. He fumbled Uh, but they kind of hid that nasty streak and it came out of nowhere at the madden classic Uh, same thing with um, same thing with uh, madden bull or the madden club championship joke kind of hid that uh The blast so this scheming came out nowhere with the blast, right? Uh So for me, uh hiding things has helped them really advance in tournaments a lot and some people do that So apparently uh scheme ahead just run defense that looks good Honestly, a lot of times with run defense, man any defense sometimes the better it like looks to the naked eye Uh, what I was going to say, um a lot of times people Um, what I was going to say When defenses look really good to the naked eye, um for me They sell better like the the little dudes and reddit and the people we just read in the comments Those are the people that that will watch that and be like, oh, shit Yo, that that's tough. Oh, he just he just sacked the quarterback. Oh, that's tough. Let me buy that. I need that defense Yeah, yeah, some people do a good job of saving stuff like that and then uh For me, um I'm gonna say Yeah, so sometimes because this defense looks good against some runs now. I tried it a little bit I didn't like it the best. I didn't think it was amazing. Um, and uh, but Apparently it did not get saved. I don't know what happened I guess it was somebody's scheme it was playing on leaderboards and someone found it and someone tried to Emulate it and that's that's how every nano blitz or every good defense gets out essentially like for me For me, um What I was going to say for me I saw always been like if I see something that works on a leaderboard I see something do someone doing something that works really well I'm going to try to do the same thing. I want to try to identify what formation it is How to get to work who's the guy that comes free? Is this guy in Contained is this guy on a blitz whatever it may be So for me, you got to figure out and especially in this this day and age of technology with everybody streaming Everybody recording even though if they're not on twitch and like in like really promoting their streams They still are streaming, you know, that's a big part like everybody streams like consistently whether it's on mixer It's on twitch There's always man streams going on the technology today a recording games even xbox record that Things like that to get every clip even the highlights or the you know Yeah to replays at the end of a man game are huge. They are huge their resources So for me, uh, if you're going to run it in the leaderboard, you might as well be on stream That's how I feel about it You know, that's how I feel about all that stuff if you are going to run it against a random person leaderboard You might as well be on stream. You might as well be showing the world for me. It's the same exact thing you know and uh So I guess that's what happened. This run defense came out Now, I don't know if the run defense is supposed to leak out. I don't know if scheme was upset about it being leaked out I really honestly don't know But as far as ebooks and everything like that is ebook isn't necessarily about who makes the shit up, bro ebooks is about who puts the effort into make it a product and put the effort in into the marketing thing, honestly you know, uh and that's that That's I don't know how to explain like Like ebooks and for me and for everybody that makes ebooks and everybody does that It's more about the exposure uh, the marketing the ease of of you know Acquiring said ebook or the comfort that someone has with the person when they're buying an ebook Those type of things are really important to uh To the success of the ebook. It's not really about It's not really about the uh Who made it up or who's is it like that that's it now to play now Some now most of the people that make ebook that do this type of thing like It's not really we're going to take somebody else's shit and find something to do with it Because for us at this level of man like we all can find our own stuff Like pretty much any playbook any defense any offense So there's really no need to take somebody else's stuff and and sell it honestly Uh, but I mean if people want to do that and and people have been doing that since the beginning of time Where they put it on youtube where they sell it for where they sell it for their own Benefit or whatever it may be people have been stealing forever What is it like y'all?

We're back for another gyno advice video. I'm having fun with these. I am actually. Look, it's been far too long. It's been almost four years since my surgery and these are videos that I've wanted to make for the last two years. Not going to lie. So we're here today for one thing and one thing only and that is to give advice on the topic of gyno. Today's video is going to be short and sweet. It is going to cover the most surprising thing about my particular gyno surgery. Everyone's surgery is their own individual experience. This was mine and this was the most surprising thing. I had no idea this was going to happen. No idea. And look, if I was put out, if I was under general anesthetic, I would not have had any clue. But the fact that I, oops, my note's flying away. The fact that I had opted to do the surgery under local anesthetic. The fact that I was, I guess you could say awake, but not really with it. There was one moment that I do vividly remember, probably right before I was, you know, I guess out of it, you could say. I'm pretty sure they gave me a Xanax, which was a first for me and it did its job. It didn't put me to sleep, but it certainly put me in La La Land. But like I said, there's one thing that I remember vividly before going into La La Land. And that was laying on the, laying on the table or the, jeez, what do you call it? Laying on the theater table. Is that what you call it? I don't know, I haven't been in many surgeries. Anyway, laying there on the table, top off, and he puts a coat on me, a coat with two holes, two holes for my nipples, which I guess makes sense. They wanna cover the rest of my body and just expose the areas that they're gonna work on, right, which is all good. But what I didn't expect is for him to go and is for the local anesthetic to literally inflate my tissue. It was extremely strange. And I can't convey this enough to you how strange this was. I don't know what it does. I'd have to do some research. But I believe as they inject the local anesthetic around the nipple, I don't know how many injections there were, there must have been about six or eight per side. What that's gone and done is it's gone and, like I said, inflated the breast tissue, but leaves alone the other tissue. So I don't know how this happened, but what I was left with, and the last thing I remember seeing before I closed my eyes and drifted off into, I don't know where, was these two holes, okay, so I'm laying down, I'm looking up, I couldn't see anything before, but lo and behold, these two mountains start erupting. Two volcanoes, I don't know what you want to call them, but literally it was my nipples going, like going, coming out like this, it was coming out, out, out, out, out, out, and eventually I was left with these two mountains on my chest. So I'm assuming what the doctor wants is, you know, an easily accessible mammary gland, and they inject this stuff in there to numb me out, but also make it, I don't know, erupt, I don't even know what the word is, I really don't, but it was the strangest thing, the strangest thing, because I'd gone through my whole entire life with what I thought was gyno, what is gyno, and, you know, having imagined what the surgery was gonna be like, having imagined, you know, what my chest was eventually gonna look like when I finally got rid of this gyno, and for the last picture in my head of that 27 years of going through gyno, for the last picture to be two literal cone tits on my chest, for my last thoughts to be looking at my chest, thinking that looks 10 times worse than it ever has, was the strangest thing, the strangest, strangest thing. If I had my phone on me, I'd look it up, but I don't. So that's basically all I am going to be talking about today is that moment, that moment, I was laying on the table, getting injected, not feeling anything, but out of the corner of my eye, I saw something erupting, and it was my gyno, it was literally growing before my eyes, but I'm assuming they do that so that it's, you know, more accessible, more obvious for the surgeon to then cut out, which makes sense. Don't know how it happens? Let me know down in the comment section below if you do. But guys, that's another video done. That's another gyno advice video done in the next one. In the next one, we will be talking about my biggest regrets, believe it or not, my biggest regrets. I'm gonna split it into two videos.  So if that's something that interests you, please tune in for that one. And the second video covering my biggest regrets will be my three biggest regrets when it comes to recovery. My three biggest regrets when it comes to my recovery, especially in that first month. Certain things I did, certain things I did myself when I probably should have included my surgeon or at least a doctor that I wouldn't do again. And I'd advise anyone else out there to not do. And that's what these videos are about.  So guys, thank you for watching. Consider liking the video if you have enjoyed it. Subscribe for more, and I'll see you soon. Peace out, guys. Stay positive and have a great day.


I feel very nice. Like I have seen people like me around and I feel okay. I'm not the one with this crazy hair because there's so much hair right here. Next time I'm gonna pick this hair. This hair. No this hair. So yeah. Red means for me that gays are very enthusiastic. Orange color means that gays are very artistic. Yellow means that we are very pure. Green means just we are ever green. Blue is like we are very light-hearted and we are very sober and we don't discriminate anyone okay. For 10 years. You were there at the post pride? Yes I was there at the first time. How is it then and how is it now? It's crazy. It's like there's just way too many people which is amazing. It's one space I feel I belong to. It's like it's a rite of passage for a lot of people. It's like your identity. This is where you find that okay this is the ownership of your identity. So yeah. People are very confident we are not hiding their identity anymore and very confidently they are coming out in the crowd and like claiming their identity. It's a very good thing and I think it's very progressing. See that people are not scared of scared so they're not wearing masks as much as they used to be back then. We are fighting again 377. We are asking and we are you know looking for our right in India a basic human right. Like if I accept myself the way I am then I don't look for other person to accept me. I keep asking for rights anymore I think we really have to grab it now.


Listen, I say this all the time that being an entrepreneur is a lonely journey and you need to surround yourself with other like-minded people.  I'm like, get a nine to five. My brain doesn't work that way. I can't sit behind a computer and do the things that most people can. I'm just not wired that way. My thing is gathering information, retaining, and then how to simplify that information for other people to be successful and the way that they define success. That sounds a lot like the Entrepreneurs' Organization, EO. Are you familiar with it? I'm not familiar with it, but it's got my initials as being also Orlando, so it might be good. Okay, so there's no cost to participate. What are the minimum requirements? I saw that emerging leaders had requirements. Is there minimum requirements to participate in the Street Wise MBA? Yeah, they have to be in business for about three years. They have to have over, actually, two, three employees or more. It used to be from 450 to 10 million in revenue, but this year, we actually reduced it to where it is 250,000. Right now, I'm actually going into session four of the program here in Miami, but one thing that definitely want to let your listeners know that we do have space for the Tampa program. They can definitely reach out to me, and I can actually let them know what they need to do, but it's a great program. I have met some really amazing people. I've been doing this since 2016, and every year, it just gets better and better. I'm really excited because I think that a lot of the business owners, when they walk away, you realize that they have that aha moment, and they're changed for the better because they've been able to come in and look at their business by way of sharing information with other like-minded business owners. It's great. I mean, the synergies and the relationships that people build, and it's become more of a close-knit family because we definitely look after the well-being of one another. Not only here, I mean, throughout the United States where there's some really phenomenal instructors as well. Wow. How did she become an instructor? Actually, I was advised. The program started in South Florida in 2014, and I was advised that the former instructor had gone on to other interests, and Jonel Hine, the Triple D here in South Florida, said, hey, this is available. I do get a lot of support here in Miami, from a lot of the SBA personnel, from Althea to Heather to Tina to Victoria to Amy, I mean, Gus and Ron. You know everyone. Yeah, everybody. Everybody. They're really amazing people, and I think that that's one of the key things that I found that because I have built a relationship with the people down here, and they believe in what I do, and they believe in the cause that it's easy for me to put them in contact with some of the businesses when the need comes. Because remember, they've got so many people that they have to work with, and they spread themselves thin oftentimes, but I think that one of the key things for me is that I have their attention. They've got mine, and the best way that we can work is making sure that the needs of the small business community are being met. So that's how I got involved, and we continue to, listen, we continue to evolve and grow here. We implemented some alumni programming that enterize in partnership with the SBA, asked us to increase because we wanted to keep the alumni engaged. So from what we've done now, we're doing some programming to come in and help those that have graduated continue to grow their business and continue to build relationships with some of the newer participants in the program. It's interesting that you said that, and again, you named a whole lot of people that I recognize and I'm familiar with, but at the same token, I've known people who have not been as successful in reaching some of the people in the SBA. What do you think was the, and I know you said they're very spread thin, but I know some people have walked in the doors and they felt like they haven't gotten a response and haven't showed like this in emails and haven't got any return emails. What would you recommend as a path that they take the people who don't that coming in out off the street trying to make headways to some of the people in the SBA? I think one of the key things is making sure that when they are present at events, talk to them, you know what, communicate. They just had an event on Wednesday, Drive 8A, and they had a really great turnout. And my thing is, number one, I don't take no for an answer. Number two, I don't expect anybody to do anything for me. And I have, listen, it works both ways. There's a lot of people that are hungry for information and they're knocking on the doors and there's some that they just come in and they expect, you know what, the SBA and other organizations, you know what, because the SBA does have some really amazing resource partners from the SBDC here in South Shore, the SBDC at FIU, phenomenal, the way that they work with the small business community. And you know, that's why they have these resource partners to come in and assist and help them. You know, they've got score, they've got the women's business at a Reebok. But I think that one of the key things is making sure that you allow yourself to be known. And one thing that I did was that I started knocking on doors. I started building relationships. I started treating them also, you know, as human beings, I mean, I think the problem sometimes with a lot of the small business community is that they come in and they need to have skin in the game. And I've seen, listen, I've been doing this for years and there's people that come up to me and they say, Orlando, I want to start a business. I said, okay, what do you want to do? And they're like, well, I don't know, you tell me. I get that all the time. You know, it's funny you said that, Orlando, people do, maybe everyone out here doesn't because they haven't been in our position, but I do. Yes, people say, well, Eric, what is the government buy that makes a lot of money? Or what are the top NAX codes that I should use? And I said, no, that's not the way you look at setting up your business. It's not. You know what it is, people are looking for the easy way out and nothing is easy. And it's having a conversation. It's having coffee. It's going to an event. It's approaching the people that are there.  I mean, I've been a spokesperson for so many other entities that I have to be that spokesperson for myself and, you know, understand that they are accessible. There's a lot of people out there that are accessible. Listen, I make myself accessible. And I give people an opportunity.  Let's have a cup of coffee. Let's converse. And sometimes you give people your contact information and you never hear from them again.  Well, you know what, that's not my job. My job is to educate and empower and inform. And what I say, it's simplified information. But I believe that one of the things that small businesses need to stop doing is overthinking everything. You know, these are people that have a wealth of information, come up to them, talk to them, communicate with them and say, hey, listen, this is what I'm planning on doing. And they will put you in contact with the right resources.  I mean, you name it, these entities have actually have been amazing to me. And I think that that's where my business has actually grown because of the relationship that I've established with them. I mean, even Miami-Dade College, I mean, I've met a lot of people with the things that I do. I mean, they've got a great program with the Idea Center. And these are all businesses that when you come in, they are in dire need of information. You know, my background actually is in education. I used to work with Middle High School and college students to ensure that they would reach their full potential. And it's funny that a lot of my students, you know, they were entrepreneurs and it was the evolution of what I do now. But back then, my former students used to overthink and nothing much has changed with the small business community. They're still overthinking. They're still overthinking. You know, I would agree, Orlando. I tell people, go to the stop sign. Go as far as you can see and then determine what to do next. Yes. I do. I tell them, I say, just go to the stop sign. You know, let's go to, they go, well, after that, then what goes over here and what happens next and what's the next two steps. And I said, look, let's just go to the stop sign. And then we'll determine if you make it right. If you make it left, if you continue straight after that. So I totally agree with that. You know, it's interesting. Tell me, what did you do with the Miami Bayside Foundation? Miami Bayside Foundation, they, for years, I actually had a contract with Score. And they had a really great relationship with the Miami Bayside Foundation. And the Miami Bayside Foundation has some really great programs. Yes, they do. Yeah.  She is always attentive to the needs of the community. I mean, and when she came on board, she, listen, she's done a phenomenal job with the people that she, that she's collaborated with, that she's worked with. And they actually started some programming. And I've helped them with the programming. And it's making sure that the business community here in Miami understands the importance of either launching, scaling, sustaining a business. And they have some really great programming. The program is about, I think they run it maybe three times a year. And they give me the privilege of coming in and launching the classes for them.  I just think that they are really good people that are coming out and really supporting the community and providing some really great resources. Not only, you know, by the courses and the classes that they're teaching, but also by way of funding. They do make funding available for some of the small businesses within the city. But listen, they continue to grow. And my thing is, is as they continue to grow, I continue to grow, we all continue to grow. There's more need to come in and develop more things and do more things to help the small business community. But I think that one of the things that I actually set back and looked at within the Bayside Foundation was when they are looking at what they're doing. I mean, from the educational portion to the scholarship fund, to the funding, they have really saturated the economy here by way of helping so many small businesses. And the great thing is, is that a lot of the people that they've worked with are entities that the SBDC also works with, that the SBA works with, that SCORE has actually worked with. So it's become very tight-knit that someone here, one of the small business community or one of the small businesses here, they're actually going to find needs in different areas, but they're going to find and fulfill those needs within their business by reaching out to these organizations.


American Horror Story Delicate had to be split up into two parts due to the actor strike which finally came to a resolution just two months ago back in November and since then production has finally resumed on both AHS Delicate and the similarly split up American Horror Stories Season 3. And today I've got all of the set photos, casting updates and rumors about both of these half seasons and then the second half of this video will be dedicated to breaking down the very serious revelations that came from Angelica Ross just a few months ago which I have not gotten the chance to properly cover since the actor strike. So we've got a lot to discuss today so let's just start with some of the juicy photos that come from the set of Delicate Part 2. On November 27th, 2023, cast and crew resumed filming in New York for the second half of Delicate. And soon after we began to get a handful of set photos thanks to Paparazzi which were then posted by American Horror Story Brazil on Twitter. Firstly we got a peek at Emma Roberts filming some new scenes as Anna where honestly it seems like she is not quite in costume because this outfit doesn't really read Anna to me. Anna never really dresses in colors like this. This outfit does however remind me of a lot of the things Brooke Thompson wore in American Horror Story 1984 but that is besides the point. This same day set photos were released of a new cast member Tommy Dorfman filming scenes for Delicate Part 2 as well. Details on her character are completely absent from public knowledge at this time but if this is her character's costume I'd take a wild guess that maybe she's playing a lawyer involved in Virginia's trial or maybe she works for Siobhan at the PR office. Next Kim Kardashian was spotted on set for Part 2 as well in some outfits that I think are again probably not going to be on screen costumes for Siobhan with the exception of this snake print number which I think fits very well with the style of Siobhan's character but again it could just be Kim's wardrobe on the day to day. Speaking of Kim it was announced that a new Ryan Murphy project is being developed with Kim Kardashian set to star as a high profile divorce lawyer. Deadline describes the series as a high end glossy and sexy adult procedural. Deadline also reports that the series is eyeing a late 2024 production start date with an intended release in 2025 on Hulu. Now let's talk about a series of set photos that have been circulating the internet that may contain some significant spoilers for the remainder of American Horror Story Delicate. So consider this your spoiler alert and feel free to skip to the time code on your screen if you want to avoid these potential spoilers. Alright now that it's just those of us who have either read the book or don't care about spoilers these set photos feature a handful of characters wearing the notorious costume of the bird women that have been stalking Anna throughout the season. That being said the chances that these scenes are all taking place inside of Anna's head are very high based on Part 1 of the season so there's a very good chance that these photos don't actually spoil anything for real but with all of that being said the characters that have been spotted in the bird costume are Cara Delevingne's Ivy, Annabelle Dexter Jones as either Sonya or Adeline, Juliana Canfield's Talia, and finally Kim Kardashian's Siobhan whose costume I must say blows every other bird woman out of the water completely but again these could all be inside of Anna's head but for all we know this could be legitimate as well and considering the amount that the show has already changed from the source material already your guess is truly as good as mine. Alright we've now entered the spoiler free zone again so let's speculate about when Delicate Part 2 may return to our screens. While there has been no official confirmation from FX on any premiere date with the show's filming schedule being back in full force after a brief break for the holidays I think it's safe to say that FX wants Part 2 out in the first half of 2024. Unlike network television cable channels like FX are a bit unpredictable they can literally air a season of television whenever they want to without adhering to the typical seasonal television schedules that most networks operate under and with only half a season to air they can literally fit this season anywhere so I think if they don't want to lose what momentum they have left they should not begin airing Delicate any later than March. That being said I think anywhere around March or April may be what they're shooting for but that's just my speculation and the Optimus in me says it could come as early as February but if I were to put money on it I would say March but do not get your hopes up until you've heard from FX themselves because what do I know? Moving away from Delicate for a moment let's discuss American Horror Stories Season 3 which as I mentioned earlier has also resumed production on its second batch of episodes and with that comes a handful of updates firstly Henry Winkler announced on the talk show the talk that he has been cast on the spinoff's third season thanks to his son Max Winkler who has directed a handful of episodes of both AHS and American Horror Stories I never realized that Max Winkler was Henry Winkler's son but hey you learn something new every day. Henry Winkler of course is most known for his role in Happy Days along with countless other television shows and films my favorite performances of his off the top of my head are of course Principal Hymbrie in Scream and Dr. Saperstein in Parks and Rec. We also know that there are five episodes left to air of season 3 after the first four episodes of course aired last October as a one night Hulu ween event who knows if Hulu will go for a similar drop of these final five episodes or if they will go back to the weekly releases that American Horror Stories seasons 1 and 2 had regardless the five episodes that will eventually air this year are backrooms the thing under the bed howl clone and leprechaun there are a lot of interesting themes that could be at play in this season and I'm most looking forward to backrooms and leprechauns just because I can't imagine how the show will twist these themes into the AHS universe and that excites me in other AHS news this year's Emmy awards ceremony featured a handful of memorable reunions of some historical television shows as category presenters and to celebrate AHS house the Emmys got Dylan McDermott to reunite with himself yes now the only other reunion that night that consisted of only one person was the one they did for Game of Thrones which consisted of only Peter Dinklage so at least AHS is in some good company but every other show that reunited at the Emmys had at least two cast members on the stage early reports included Connie Britton as a presenter with Dylan which of course would have been great but that did not happen and in other other AHS news AHS delegate has scored a nomination at the People's Choice awards under the category of the sci-fi fantasy show of the year these awards are fan voted so if you feel strongly about AHS winning this category you know what to do all right now I want to talk about some AHS news that happened over the summer that I haven't had a chance to discuss let's just say 2023 was a very controversial year for American Horror Story in more ways than one but the story I want to focus on today is the allegations brought up by former pose and AHS star Angelica Ross mainly allegations of transphobia by a cast member allegations of AHS being a toxic work environment and allegations of false promises from Ryan Murphy and of course just as a content warning this discussion will include discussions of racism transphobia and references to police brutality so if any of that will make you uncomfortable feel free to step away from this part of the video Angelica Ross initially brought these revelations to light via Twitter but she later elaborated on those tweets in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter as well as a handful of Instagram lives so Angelica's first tweet that had people raising their eyebrows at one Ryan Murphy was a screenshot of an email exchanged between Angelica and Ryan the email from Ryan Murphy is dated July 3rd 2020 and it reads remember your idea about a horror season starring black women well I'm doing it not sure of the story yet but we will start a writer's room in the fall along with you who are the other four women I should get I think you Kiki Palmer Gabby Sidibe not sure of the fourth and quote so in this email Ryan Murphy claimed he was doing a season of American Horror Story featuring mainly black actresses based on an idea of Angelica Ross's it's also important to note that this email exchange happened on July 3rd 2020 which was just a week after the murder of George Floyd and the subsequent protests against police brutality and in support of the Black Lives Matter movement it is also worth noting that the season that they are discussing would have been season 11 and while I do admire a lot about AHS NYC it is very odd to me now with this context that that specific cast is exceptionally white male and cisgender considering its subject matter and with the original intention of the season anyways Angelica Ross's response is also included in the screenshot where she goes on to suggest a handful of black actresses that could take part in the season including Debbie Morgan Lynn Whitfield Alfa Woodard Kiki Palmer Gabby Sidibe Adina Porter Angela Bassett and Amiya Scott in Angelica's interview with the Hollywood Reporter she says that this email on July 3rd was the last time that Ryan Murphy communicated with her and yes Angelica Ross did film double feature after these emails but she goes on to say that Ryan Murphy was never on set for American Horror Story at least during her two seasons so Angelica went on to say in her interview with the Hollywood Reporter that the next time she would contact Ryan Murphy would be the following February she says quote so in February I sent an email to Ryan Murphy and I say quote good morning I'm just organizing and thinking about what season 11's focus could be and I asked him if I could be on the producing side as well saying I think I could add a lot to the table in the overall storyline if we are still looking to do a black lead cast but he stopped communicating with me the interviewer then asks Angelica if she has any theories as to what exactly happened between herself and Ryan Murphy and Angelica speculates that it may have been Angelica's support of Poe's writer director producer Janet Mock after Mock gave an impassioned speech criticizing Murphy and Hollywood in general at the Poe's season 3 premiere. Janet Mock's speech at the premiere happened in April of 2021 so this timeline of a rift happening around this time makes a bit of sense so I've summarized the rift between Ryan Murphy and Angelica Ross based on my understanding so now let's get into the parts of the article where Angelica discusses her intense experience while filming American Horror Story 1984 while Angelica Ross and her Hollywood reporter interview discuss a lot of important topics regarding her experiences in the industry the thing that garnered the most attention from media and AHS fans alike was of course Angelica's revelation that Emma Roberts had made a transphobic comment to her while on the set of AHS 1984. Angelica also went on Instagram live to explain her recollection of the conversation that happened between her Emma Roberts and AHS director John Jay Gray. I'm standing in front of Emma talking to her like this and she's you know she's in front of me her back against the mirror she goes John Angelica's being Angelica's being mean and he goes and I know she's being you know she's not being for real for real she's just being whatever and and John is like okay ladies you know that's enough let's you know like get back to work and she then looks at me and she goes she goes don't you mean lady and she turns around like this and covers her mouth and goes back here but can't see I'm looking at her dead ass in the camera like what the fuck did you just say and I'm standing there looking at her dead ass in the damn thing and I'm like trying to process the fuck she just said and I'm like I'm standing there and she walked away my blood is boiling boiling because I'm like if I say something it's gonna be me that's the problem and I know this because there was someone who spoke up about what she was doing and they got repercussions from it not her they did so when I saw that happen and I was just like I I'm done I'm done I didn't speak to that bitch the entire time after that so we had scenes together and I never spoke to her she said she said to me she could feel the energy coming off of me she was like are you okay you haven't been talking I'm like mm-hmm because bitch don't play me you've been playing mind games with everybody on the set and everybody's been waiting for the moment that you would get me like I told you because the first thing I saw on set was her like yelling at the director and basically trying to make him cry basically was like what are you gonna do about it John you want to cry you're gonna cry about a win win win John you know like I was like I just looked obviously like she was trying to make it very clear that she was number one on the car sheet and she was the one in charge um and she was making sure that her trailer was right outside of the of the sound lot folks seemed like they were just kept ready to they wanted to fight her all the time because it was just like she was playing like psychological games on set like she was playing mind games with people and so one of the actors comes up to me and was like can you believe I mean one of the actors comes up to me they're like can you believe that bitch they're like they're like she had the nerve to ask us what we were all making for the show and mind you I was not in the circle I was not in the circle when this conversation was happening and they were telling me that she was playing um she was smoking her cigarette you know she smokes a cigarette outside the um the trailer and isn't like okay well what's everybody getting what's everybody getting paid and I don't think nobody was really like answering the question or whatever and what the actor told me I guess allegedly right what the what the actor told me is that she was like what as long as you're not getting paid more than a hundred thousand dollars an episode and then like kind of walked away after this story began to make headlines Angelica tweeted that Emma had given her a phone call to apologize in apology that Angelica Ross told the Hollywood reporter was quote a bumpy conversation you can pause this video to read Angelica's full quote but basically Emma owns up to her actions and claims to be an ally which Angelica pushes back on stating that allyship is an action and elaborating that Emma does not use her platform to combat anti-blackness or transphobia personally I think transphobia or any instances of microaggressions and beyond do not have any place on a film or television set or any workplace and it really baffles me that this continues to happen on Ryan Murphy shows we've all heard the horror stories about the unprofessionalism and racism on the glee set but to have similar things occurring in 2019 on American Horror Story by the same production company that was currently producing Poe's yeah it's very shocking Emma Roberts being willing to have a conversation with Angelica about her behavior is a good step albeit for years too late I just hope that Emma continues to engage in these conversations and stands up for trans and queer issues moving forward I haven't seen any of this yet but I agree with what Angelica said it does take actions to show one's allyship in another instance of onset unprofessionalism during the filming of American Horror Story 1984 Angelica Ross described to the Hollywood Reporter about a crew member who often wore politically charged t-shirts that danced on the line of just being outright racist this was a crew member who was operating a vehicle which Angelica had to drive on screen for a scene so she was required to work within a close proximity to this guy day after day for a certain shoot and when she began to speak up about these t-shirts making her uncomfortable there were no actions taken so one day during a take Angelica says she walked off camera and into a production van where she said that she would not come out until the t-shirt situation was handled losing daylight the crew begins to panic and director John Jay Gray tells Angelica that it is an issue of freedom of speech and that they cannot do anything about this guy with the offensive t-shirts it is after this conversation with the director that Angelica tweets the following tweet quote it's a shame that I do all this work out in the real world on anti-blackness and racism and have to come to a set and do the same work end quote then according to Angelica about 10 seconds later she gets a call from a producer who tells her that Ryan Murphy thinks she should take her tweet down saying that they're all a family and that they shouldn't share these things outside of the family eventually Angelica agrees to take down the tweet but says I am being told that this man wearing these t-shirts has freedom of speech but I'm the one being told to take down a tweet it is then that she gets a heated phone call from Ryan Murphy himself my interpretation of Angelica's words are Ryan was essentially taking credit for the doors that pose opened despite the fact that pose would not have worked if it weren't for the contributions of its phenomenal and largely black and queer cast as well as its immensely talented writers and producers like Stephen Canals, Janet Mock and Our Lady J. I've seen more activism and action taken by the cast members of pose like Angelica Ross and India Moore than Ryan Murphy or any members of the AHS cast Angelica elaborates on this point saying India Moore and myself have always been ones who opened up our mouths and spoke and Ryan said that was one of the things that he liked about me and so to co-op that energy only so that he can wield my essence whenever he wants to take me out of his actor toolbox it's just another form of tokenization because he doesn't really mean what he says that he means Ryan Murphy's team released a statement regarding this exact phone call between Angelica Ross and Ryan after the t-shirt walk off and they have a slightly different version of events mainly they claim that Ryan did not curse Angelica out and they have some other discrepancies as well that you can see on your screen it's unclear in this article whatever happened with this t-shirt guy and while I support free speech I do think that people should conduct themselves in a professional manner in their workplace the thought of going to any job with a political t-shirt is just annoying behavior and this man's unprofessionalism led to a bigger issue that could have been easily avoided if this man had just set his own ideologies aside for the sake of doing his job well and efficiently I encourage you all to click on the link to Angelica's full Hollywood reporter interview because I couldn't cover everything and she has a lot of important things to say she also discusses how she is leaving Hollywood to pursue a political career in Georgia but that doesn't mean that she won't continue to act because she's got projects set to come out and she says she's quote going to continue to create with those who want to create in a more liberated way all right there you have it that is everything we know about the upcoming season of American Horror Story as well as Angelica Ross's shocking revelations about the unprofessionalism at play on these very shows I spend so much time dissecting I know it's not the most fun thing to talk about and it may not seem super timely since this article is from September but it also feels like if I don't address this in a video it's like I'm ignoring it which I definitely am not at the end of the day 2023 really opened my eyes to just how unprofessional and of a place Hollywood can still be and how easy it is for artists to be used and manipulated by people in power I have been an Angelica Ross fan since I was introduced to her in pose and I have become an even bigger fan watching her take all of this on with so much self-assuredness and strength before I go I just want to mention that I've opened I've reopened my channel memberships once again so if you want to get my videos earlier than anybody else you can hit that join button below and become a member I've also got a super sized video about the production history of scream queens going up for all channel members on February 5th that won't be made public until February 19th so you know what to do if you want to check that out along with some of my past member exclusive uploads and with that thank you guys so much for watching and I will see you next time


Today is a great meeting to discuss all these issues about tenure and governance, as well as investment, because, of course, these are all linked. What we've learned over time is that one of the biggest constraints in the forest sector, constraints to conservation, constraints to poverty alleviation, and constraints to getting rid of corruption, etc., is the fact that the ownership of the land in the forest is contested in most parts of the world. So that means that in most developing countries, you still have a situation left over from the colonial period when states, governments claim ownership over, right now it's about 75% of all the forest, and that's despite the fact that in almost all of these forests, indigenous people and local communities live. So the fact that ownership over the land and forest is still contested between these local people and the government undermines our ability to bring solutions and sustainable investment and undermines our ability to reach scale. So RRI, the Rights and Resources Initiative, is a coalition that started about 10 years ago. It's a coalition of now 14 organizations that are collaborating with each other to focus on this issue of tenure reform in forest areas. And the coalition includes research organizations like C4, eCRAF, and a few others. It includes some human rights organizations like the Forest Peoples Program. It includes the indigenous peoples organizations like Teba from the Philippines, as well as conservation organizations, forest trends, etc. So it's a diverse mix of organizations that all have an interest in securing property rights. Now we're now in our 10th year. It's kind of amazing. It had a lot of impacts, helped move the needle in China and Indonesia, Brazil, and a number of countries. We've helped on advancing tenure reforms, legislation, and securing community rights. So it's all good, but nobody's happy yet because we've not gone far enough and there's still so much more to do. So several years ago when we conducted an internal evaluation of RRI, we identified that, look, we've got to start going beyond just the coalition. We've got to start engaging the private sector. We have to be much more creative in developing new instruments and new approaches to attract and incentivize private actors to become positive players. We also have to kind of find new ways to reach out and engage governments. And so there's two new instruments that we've created just over the last few years, and that's what we talked about today. And we presented products from those new instruments today. One is what we call the tenure facility. It's actually a new instrument. It's a new fund that finances securing community rights at scale. What that means is it's a source of funding for communities to map their land, register their land, and get that officially recognized. And we created that because there was a gap in the world. There's not funding, there's not enough funding actually out there now to meet the demand from communities or from governments. The World Bank is not providing enough funding, the bilaterals. So there's a big gap, and of course all actors now understand that securing property rights in forced areas is essential.  So we've created this tenure facility and we've just signed our first two investments in one in Indonesia with Amman, the National Federation of Indigenous People, and the others in Panama and Sukuna Peep, the National Federation of Indigenous People. And in both those cases, they'll use this money to actually map and secure property rights. And in doing so, develop protocols and examples with governments on how to scale up. This is new guidance about how private companies should acquire land. How should they either rent land or purchase land in developing countries in rural areas where there's forests and other common lands? So we developed this tool with what's called the interlocking group. It's another instrument that we've created. The interlocking group is a group of leading private companies that have already committed to do the right thing. Stop land grabbing, et cetera. And leading NGOs. We brought them together in a safe space. We used the Chatham House rule. There's about 15 people around the room. And they've developed the principles about how private actors can expand and leverage their incentive to secure community land rights. What should they be doing? What should they not be doing? And what should they be doing to secure community land rights? So the interlocking group is very interesting. That was just the first product. They have a number of other products in the pipeline. And that's Nestle, Unilever, Olam, Rio Tinto has been involved in that group from the private side. And on the NGO side, Global Witness, Forest Peoples Program, Oxfam had been involved, and a few other NGOs. So that group is unique because it's individuals from leading institutions and able to move very quickly on reaching agreements. And since we've adopted the Chatham House rule, they get very technical, very sincere discussions.
