Hello and welcome to NewsClick, today we have with us Parujay Guha Takutta, who and his co-author have recently published a story on a money shall we say hidden income or shall we say undisclosed accounts, which have come to light because of the earlier the HSBC whistle blowing and further to that the income tax authorities investigation on this issue. Parujay, the story that you have done for NewsClick seems to indicate that shall we say tax havens have played an important role in Reliance Empire, undoubtedly what this article highlights is how members of the Ambani family, individuals closely associated with the Reliance group and they are associated, used a very complex structure of corporate entities across the globe, in tax havens like St. Lucia, in British Virgin Islands, the Antilles Islands in the Netherlands and so on and so forth, to essentially hide the manner in which an estimated 2100 crore rupees, which if you sort of convert that into US dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at that juncture, which is really around 2004 to 2006, this is soon after Dhirubhai Ambani passed away in July 2002. Now that's about 472 million US dollars, so what they did was they used this very complex structure to conceal income from the Indian tax authorities, now bits and pieces of this story have appeared, first it was Arvind Kejriwal and Prashant Bhushan who disclosed this at a press conference in Delhi after the whistleblower from HSBC's Geneva branch, her Falciani had disclosed this information, then that had about 700 Indian accounts mentioned in it, that's correct, then this information was passed on by the French government to the Indian government and thereafter after Falciani's material was made public, the Indian Express as part of a global sort of journalism network, they went quite deep into it, but they couldn't get the whole story and when I wrote the article for the news click I said here is the full story but after I wrote the story, my sources inform me no that's not the full story, there's more to be told. Now the story from what I understand is that a front set of companies, Motec Software being one of them, which is headed by Anu Tandon, was headed by Anu Tandon before she resigned and became a member of parliament, but this company was in some sense the front for a lot of these activities, but more important than that in terms of tax issues, it is that under Indian law, Indian citizens are supposed to disclose whatever financial holdings they have abroad and that is the violation that is taken place and that's what the income tax department is really finding out this is on. That's correct, absolutely correct. If you're a citizen of India, you hold an Indian passport and you have corporate entities or other entities registered in India, then your foreign holdings any kinds of assets financial assets or other kinds of assets need to be disclosed to the Indian tax authorities. Now in this case, it appears or it has been alleged by the income tax department, but these assets were not disclosed to the tax authorities. Then that's not all, one more point. What was interesting is that the income tax department after the French government came up with all this information that had been provided to the French government by Falciani, what happened essentially was they started what are called reassessment orders against these companies because what had happened was that these reassessment proceedings took place because the accounts were supposed to have been all closed and finally when the order came which was in 2014 pertaining to assessment years that were about eight years earlier, what was interesting is even as this reassessment proceedings were going on, the company MoTeX Software's representatives didn't inform the income tax department that they had closed down that company. But can they close down the company without the permission of the income tax authorities since proceedings are on? And secondly, should that company would have been allowed to close down anyway? That's the interesting part of the information that I have disclosed in that NewsClick article. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs, the registrar of companies, deregistered this company and informed the income tax department. But it seems the income tax department had conveniently forgotten to take notice of this. So it's a kind of... Thereafter we forgot. Oops, we forgot kind of question. And then after they moved code. But that's another story. You'll have to wait for that story. How this all happened. And so that is truly that one wing of the government, typically of course doesn't know what the other hand and other wing of them. This was a particularly interesting case where the Ministry of Corporate Affairs informs the income tax department. But I think also the company concerned has an obligation to report to the Ministry of Company Affairs that we have this thing pending against us and without which actually they cannot wind up the company. We have to inform the Ministry of Company Affairs, the Registrar of Company Affairs that there is something pending against us. This is precisely the point on which the income tax department has moved code. Okay. Coming back to the other issue that it is not that there is a tax notice regarding unearned income for these accounts abroad because we do not know what income they did or didn't earn though obviously the figures are there in the HSBC papers. What is really the issue is under law they should have disclosed that they had this foreign holdings which is what they didn't do and that's a charge against them. And they have to explain now where did this income come from and how much expenditure do they have and therefore what are the implications of this holdings in terms of the tax liability in India is that right? Absolutely correct. You've analyzed it perfectly. Okay. Coming back to the other issue. Now something which is forgotten in India that okay here are this amounts which are there compared to the size of a money holdings and all don't seem to be astronomical. It's a very small small part. As they would say in Hindi. Yes. The question is what is the role the tax havens play in the affairs of companies like Ammanis. Now we had for instance the KGBC issue where the CAG had made various strictures on the kind of shall we say expenditure supposedly that reliance had done in the KGBC case. They had a lot of for instance they had drilling ships, they had drilling expenditures, they had hired various things. Absolutely. Let me remind you of two very famous statements made by our honorable Prime Minister, Mr. Narendra Modi. He says neither will I accept bribes nor will I pay bribes. He also made another statement which it says before the elections that he would bring black all the black money which Indians had stashed away outside India. And he arrived at a calculation that he would be able to distribute 15 lakh rupees to every poor family in India. Subsequently of course the BJP President Mr. Amit Shah described this as Chunawee Jumla. Means it was a wild exaggeration and I mean it was nothing near the truth. But the short point is the point that you have made Indians for many years have been illegally surreptitiously taking away money and this process is facilitated by tax havens, no tax or low tax jurisdictions. On the KGBC I have a book, I also have another book written with Shinsani Jain which is called Thin Dividing Line India Mauritius and Global Illicit Financial Flows. And these two books seek to document how this entire process happens. Essentially across the world there are about 90 odd so called tax havens and some of these tax havens are within countries like the state of Delaware in the US. But you know the interesting part of a lot of this is that each financial area as it were you have the European Union that has its tax havens much smaller than the Brits. Brits have the most as we said because they have a much bigger colonial empire than others so they could locate in different parts of the world and they can also talk about it being some being independent of the of their all independent countries. Yes they are all supposed to be sovereign independent sovereign nation states. So all of this the expertise has been provided interested enough by Swiss banks and the city of London. These are the two ones. And what I thought I could add to what you are saying interestingly especially after the great recession of 2008 and even before that the OECD the Organization of Economic Cooperation Development which is essentially a club of some of the most developed countries in the world they themselves have been very concerned and they have an initiative calling for greater transparency it's called BEPS, Base Erosion and Profit Shifting where large corporations including some of the biggest IT companies Apple and how they have used these jurisdictions these low tax no tax jurisdictions popularly called tax havens to avoid paying taxes and the dividing line between quote unquote legal forms of tax avoidance which accountants and lawyers say good tax planning so even if it's legal the issue of ethics arises but then the dividing line between a legal form of tax avoidance and illegal form of tax evasion which includes money laundering and money moving at high velocity across various tax havens which is what the Ammani case is all about even the OECD today says this is bad for the economy of the world it is widening inequalities. I'd like to add two things to it one is what's the difference between tax avoidance and illegal tax shall we say evasion it's having good lawyers and good accountants. So that is one part of it and the second part of it it's interesting that a lot of people have said one of the reasons for Brexit is because Britain was very unhappy with the European Union already this British finance capital is very unhappy with the threat in the European Union of tax avoidance being limited and therefore tax havens to be brought under some kind of control this is supposed to be one of the very strong argument for Brexit. Just like after reading the article that a news leak published written by me and Abhidash Gupta Prashant Bhushan set out a tweet wondering whether some of this money was from alleged invoicing fiddles in the Krishna-Gudavari base and you know which on which a report of the controller and auditor general already exists so this is part of the way finance capital has been working and it's reached such levels that even within the establishment as I said the OECD there's a lot of concern about this so Apple and Google and Microsoft may use Ireland but the others are unhappy EU is saying should you be allowing this kind of thing because what is happening at the end you are depriving independent sovereign nation states on what they consider is their legitimate share of tax revenue which is meant for healthcare and education and roads and electricity and water etc etc and that's not all because it benefits the rich you are actually contributing the growing inequalities across the globe and also in India. We are not here arguing that what Ambani did with KG Basin is illegal because unfortunately what they have done is under international financing today being done by all big companies so at the most that we can catch reliance is on not disclosing this which is what is exactly the case in the income tax department that you should have disclosed that you are holding such foreign assets abroad. Can I recount a little anecdote the infamous gangster of Chicago Al Capone you know was accused of all kinds of crimes for trafficking in women to illegal gambling you name and killing people and finally why was your answer how is he arrested income tax department the internal revenue service of the US government finally got him. So here is the issue really that much the much bigger issue is really the existence of tax havens which allow for global capital to escape the tax net as you have said and allows therefore what would have been otherwise redistributed as a part of taxation allows it not to be taxed and therefore increasing the inequalities globally this is the crux of what we see is a role of tax havens in the larger picture of the global economy and essentially what we see irrespective of what they did or didn't do that seems to be also the picture in this particular story that you have done that this seems to be the role that this tax havens play and at the end of it we can only catch people for non disclosure of foreign holdings rather than what they have done because essentially the big fish shall be say the European Union the United Kingdom the United States are all into this very heavily. Okay thank you so much I completely agree with your analysis I hope that some of those who are watching the two of us converse will go and read the article in NewsClick and I must apologize to them at this juncture itself I told them here's the full story no the full story is not yet been told there's more to be told. Thank you very much for apologizing to be with us and we hope that we will see further disclosures not only of this but of other investigative journalism that you and your colleagues are doing this is all the time we have today for NewsClick do keep watching NewsClick and also visit our YouTube page.


Electoral College. Well, I mean, this is a quick one. Electoral College today by, you know, the Constitution requires the Electoral College to basically, in a sense, vote for president of the United States. The Electoral College voted today. The vote is in and the vote is as expected. And as we knew the day after the election, pretty much a couple of days after the election, is that Biden got a significant majority of the Electoral College and Trump lost. It'll be interesting to see how what the strategy is now. The Electoral College vote gets certified, in a sense, gets formally adopted and accepted by the House of Representatives on January 5th. So that's why somebody yesterday was saying, oh, Trump's going to win on January 6th because the House is going to vote for Trump. No, I mean, today it's official. I think that's pretty much it. I think it's over. In addition, the Wisconsin Supreme Court rules today on one more of the many so-called cases about systemic election fraud or irregularities or unconstitutional laws or practices basically threw it out. And with again, with a pretty scathing rebuttal to the Trump lawyers. So it looks like it's over. It looks like it's over. I thought it was over pretty much day after the election. But many people have held on for hope that Trump would win. It's gone. So whether you support a Trump and you're disappointed or whether you didn't support Trump and are pleased, I don't think anybody's excited by Trump losing or Biden winning. But I think many people are not unhappy by it by seeing Trump lose. Now we'll see what happens to the Republican Party. The real question now is how we move forward. I just wanted to say something about the Electoral College. I mean, the Electoral College is in our Constitution. It's the way we do elections. It gives really power to the states over the popular vote. Funny Fathers were very much dedicated to a federal system, very much dedicated to rejection of majority rule democracy, where the majority can vote on everything and the majority dictates everything. They believed in a constitutional based republic, a constitution that limited the role of government and states that had certain autonomy. And, you know, we can talk a little bit about that autonomy, but certain autonomy about running the state and about the laws within the state up to, you know, up to a point, including autonomy around election, you know, one of the frustrating things about the Texas lawsuits, other lawsuits, is that the whole point of, if you're an originalist, if you believe in the Constitution, the whole point of the founders was, there's certain issues that have to be left to the states. And the idea that one state would sue another state because this state didn't like the way another state did something would then require a federal court, the Supreme Court to dictate to all states how to do something uniformly. So it's the fact that conservatives are suing states in order to get them to behave in a particular way. I mean, it's just the same old story of conservatives not having an ideology, not sticking to any ideology, but doing what they think will be necessary to win. In other words, adopting a completely pragmatic view of the world and abandoning any semblance of reverence to the founding fathers and reverence to the Constitution and abandoning it. The whole point of our system is to allow states these kind of disability to be autonomous. The Electoral College also makes it assures us that candidates when they run for office on a national ticket for president have to pay attention to many states. They don't just focus on a few cities because that's where the election is going to be decided as it would be if it was a popular vote. I mean, if it was a popular vote, you would spend almost all your time in New York and California. Those are the two states that you would spend all of your time because those are the two states that would decide your fate. As it is today, that is not the case. You actually spend time in a lot of different states and as more states become competitive, people will have to spend time in more of those states. You don't become beholden to the heavily populated cities at the expense of everybody else. And you, you know, if it's a popular vote, then the voting has to be standardized, then the voting procedure has to be standardized, the standards, everything has to be standardized across all states. If it's an Electoral College, each state gets to authorize its own methodology for running an election. And as long as it doesn't violate any principle of the Constitution, then it is fine.  I think they invented the system for a reason. I think those reasons hold up. I think generally we want to have a small limited federal government. We want small limited state governments too, but we want a small limited federal government. We do not want a federal government that now intervenes in the states regulating even elections. That would only legitimize and justify the federal government from taking over more and more and more things that should be relegated to the state. So I like that Electoral College. There's going to be a push to get rid of it by Democrats. It requires a constitutional amendment. It's unlikely to happen, but it could be. You could see in the years to come a push to do that. They think they've got a nailed. If they get a popular vote, you know, because they've won the last few elections through the popular vote, but I'm not sure. I'm not sure that they'd actually benefit from it long term. What we need today, what I called a new intellectual would be any man or woman who is willing to think, meaning any man or woman who knows that man's life must be guided by reason, by the intellect, not by feelings, wishes, wins or mystic revelations. Any man or woman who values his life and who does not want to give in to today's cult of despair, cynicism and impotence and does not intend to give up the world to the dark ages and to the role of the collectivist.

We'll keep that in mind Alright, let's Let's just do this select right here, which is right in front of me. Let's Try to open up some space in the middle right here Now, I know this is a football break, but it's gonna it's gonna take a little bit of time You can talk about some other stuff, too They had everyone watch this is what everyone's talking about lately the last dance The Michael Jordan Chicago Bulls late 90s Chicago Bulls story First two episodes were last Sunday. I think they're doing two Two episodes every Sunday for the next four or five weeks What did everyone think I thought it was good? I thought it was pretty I Thought it was pretty entertaining Just crazy to think about how different basketball looked back then just not in terms just in terms of well Not only just style uniforms, you know, like the way it was televised the way it was The way it was covered, you know So it's a good trip down memory lane for a lot of people I'm sure all right next we've got Jeremy Cash For the Panthers that's gonna be for Nick T Yeah, sub Jason I Guess yeah, that's true Joe Drobak said better question is who didn't watch it. Yeah, did anyone not watch it? I guess let's start from there There's Sterling shepherd relic for the Giants that goes to Kessler Joe Hayden To 149 these try colors not numbered, but they will ship. Oh Sean hasn't Sean hasn't yet Just Sean was too busy It's too busy out and about on the town spreading the COVID I guess We're catching the COVID either way Out of 75 there's Jason Pierre Paul die cut. Yeah, what what are some of that? I mean, let's open it up to in a broad sort of sense. Oh, this is 2016 There's that press got rookie card for the Cowboys ASA Rookie silver out of select. Yeah, I guess Kyle B. There's a good place to start Um What what was like something that kind of surprised you or that that you let something new that you learned out of there Maybe maybe if you're young enough, maybe it's all in you. There's Cody Kessler For the Browns, that's gonna go to Daniel Hayes. Yeah, was there anything any any takeaways from them? Kyle B never realized how much Jerry crowd how hated Jerry Cross was in there So that'll go to Oh cute who was the QB one in the 2017 NFL Draft the first QB taken 2017 NFL Draft What year was That was the that was the shabisky or that goes to the first QB taken in 2017 was Going to Jose Lopez and the Bears You know post it don't hear Bears his favorite favorite ear No, right next one. Oh, you're saving them up Sean. Oh, so Sean you're saving them and just watching them Watching like ten all at once back to back to back to back to back That's the way to do it. It's hard might be hard to get through the the next few weeks without spoilers though I mean, I guess it's already happened. So there's really no spoilers. Oh The hotel room story shocked you About all the about all the illicit drugs being taken by those players. Yeah those 80s man I'll mid 80s a lot of Freshly ground snow in those hotel rooms Wait, are they not honoring Sam saying they're not gonna honor these as well These draft cards are these considered a redempt I guess they are redemptions to huh? That's a shame. There's the Sean Watson rookie to Sean Watson I'm Hoping that Panini will We'll turn around on that. So we'll still send them the X sign with the Texans. It's Todd Gurley There's a Mara Darbo rookie stallion relic For the Seahawks, that's gonna go to William There's Taiwan Taylor Autograph for the Titans and there's green foil on there, but no no number I'll be for William in Tennessee. Let's jump to some lumens. We'll kind of be Jumping around here a little bit. That's a good question. Kyle B wonder how former teammates reacted when watching with their families They're like Some son or daughter. She's like wait dad weren't Weren't you on that 1984 Chicago Bulls scene? Were you in that hotel room? No, no, no Definitely not There's a Jeffrey Simmons To 349 I forgot where where he ended up Try to save as many of these numbered cards as possible set those aside There's Bryce love for the redskins Mike McCarthy with the skins. That's a 299 and There's oh nice. These are nice Meekle Harman jr. Silver ink autograph on that nice luminance card These are the those draft day signatures are really nice chiefs Anthony pick it with the chiefs. It's to 49 For the Titans we got Mario to relic for William Okay Let's let's get this kind of bulky certified box out of the way. I think next week's Rod Dennis Rodman episode should be really Should be really fun to watch Michael Jordan's I mean we haven't seen all the episodes yet, but Michael Jordan in an interview Recent interview was saying he thought he was gonna look bad after all this so far I don't really think so. I think he lives up to the to that intense Michael Jordan that we Always heard That he was right. This is some certified coming at you And there's there's my boy Hunter Renfro silver and black patch To 499 that goes to the Raiders Brian Croft Solid solid freshman year for him. Hopefully you can keep keep growing That's what I'm hoping for my Raiders. I just want like I don't need superstars just yet I just want a solid team Josh Jacobs. There you go more Raiders 51 out of 99 Raiders box For Brian Croft who has my Raiders. I'm hoping no sophomore slump for him Just step by step Darius Slaton for the Giants that'll be for Kessler Jason Taylor out of 35 The contract thing I didn't remember either Joe Poppy that's another good point out of that last dance documentary Scotty Pippin's contract. I Was watching I watch I don't know if some of you Kept watching Scott van Pelt after that, but he was saying So from the documentary it said there's Tara Mclauren scary Terry to 199 that Scotty Pippin was the 106 seconds 20 second highest paid player and there's probably a better way to say that but But for what some argue to be a You know, what was it? Top top 10 player in the league at the you know in his prime Top 20 player in the league in his prime, you know great defender as well a big man who connect who moved Who had handles as well? So he was paid He was the hundred and twenty second highest paid player in the league and Scott van Pelt made the point that you know who the you know who the current 122nd highest paid player in the league is right now. I think it was Andre Roberson So, I mean obviously them the dollar figures are different these days, but for just a relative comparison Think of think of a player as good as Scotty Pippin if you if you remember him and think of him being paid as Paid like Andre Roberson today. I mean, what's a good? Come what's a good comparison today? Scotty Pippin. Who's who's a player today? That's like a Scotty Pippin Yeah, Scotty Pippin also didn't do didn't do that surgery which Jordan on in the last dance said was Was selfish. Oh, you think they might regret how mean they were to Jake. I don't know I don't think they'll regret that. I think they they all a lot of guys hated that guy J-Doc saying what Scotty Pippin kind of like PG-13 All right, I can kind of I can try to I can kind of visualize that Here's Keen Allen to 99 Montez sweat to 199 Raquel Armstead to 15 Yeah, 15 out of 15 for the Jags that'll go to Bradley Josh Allen to 299 Russell Wilson to 75 Miko Harman 49 another one looks like the piece of his glove there Rising rookie Otto another one for Anthony Pickett and the Chiefs Josh Jacobs 99 Yeah, a ton of parallels in this Kyler Murray 199 Travis Donahue got randomized the Cardinals in this one. Good random Jarvis Landry Devonte Adams to 199 Hunter Renfro 20 out of 100 Oakland Raiders Brian Croft Payton Manning to 299 Joe Drobak saying maybe Kawhi a little like Scotty to yeah, Scotty Pippin played defense to I think that was the other Kind of big thing. It was a good defender as well. Matt Ryan That part I forgot. All right, let's go back in time to maybe 2011 platinum tops platinum football See if we find in here. Oh, yeah, these are the days. I think they're from the last dance I think there was a little a little romanticization of the past as tends to happen with these sorts of things People romanticize house. I mean there they were The quality of basketball. I don't know. It's different. I can't say that it's better today There's some things that are better at Jason But you think maybe I don't think the sixth player on average on a basketball team has to be better than the sixth player Back in the 90s 80s and 90s. I Don't think the idea of and everyone was kind of well, it's hard to compare I think everyone was locked into the sort of positions to that sort of Quote-unquote positionless basketball Idea didn't really hold true in the 80s and 90s But now you have now now you have like Seven footers shooting threes and in handling like guards these days. That's why There's mugs eboges make it today. I'm surprised he made it back then I feel like in this in this era This would suit mugs eboges quite well but in the physicality that Jared's talking about that in the Lead that was so physical back then. I'm surprised he made it back then. It was Ryan mallet Remember him. Yeah, and that I think that's what I'm struggling with Sean. It's like there was more physicality but the athleticism Was not necessarily the same as it was You know seven footers weren't handling the ball like like guards like they do these days. There's Raheem Moore To 1,000 that goes to run. Oh that guy certified. Don't be that guy You don't think you've seen a Niners card yet. Let me just remind you how many boxes we have we have left here before we start worrying about seeing cards Got a long way to go There boom Michael Crabtree Niners got a long way to go Ryan mallet die cut True and see and that's the other thing It's hard to compare these errors because so much has changed Jared Phillip does make a good point too But you couldn't be soft and make it back then you could be a little softer these days because that Phillip physicality isn't there anymore so Justin Houston to 1450 That'll be for KC that's for Anthony other thing I realized a lot of a lot of low-scoring games bag I don't know if that's because Just the pace of the game I guess but a lot of low-scoring games. There's Dionne Lewis Eagles three-color patch and autograph that's Rookie edition for Trevor and the Fly Eagles fly and there's a rookie Kaepernick to 49 For what it's worth. All right. I don't want to Make a little space for myself here Let's work on this area here. Let's get this prime going here 2013 tops prime football Sean saying oh Rodman lambier wouldn't be able to say on the court nowadays between thousand suspensions I don't know much about lambier, but I feel like Dennis Rodman. I think Feels like a Smarter basketball player than maybe we give him credit for I think he would have been able to adjust to I Think he would have been able to adjust to this league. I could see Rodman kind of a Kind of a Dreymont type. I think I think if Rodman grew up in this era I think if you time travel Dennis Rodman from the 90s to today, yeah maybe maybe he would not be able to make that adjustment pretty quickly, but If Rodman was born like 30 years later or whatever. I think he would have been able to To make an adjustment to the league maybe if he took prime Rodman and put him in the league I feel like he could have done it. There might be an adjustment period. He's like I can't do what now But I don't know I mean There's the 170 Joseph ran could he keep up with like players of today? So I don't know. I mean, it's it's an interesting debate Would he still wear a dress in this era? I think he would in fact I think that'd be probably more acceptable today than it was back then There's haloding nada 43 out of 200 triple relic and autograph for the Ravens Dominic with the Ravens I think if you wore a dress today Mac McCarthy, I don't think it would be nearly as controversial There's Tavon Austin to 165 That's golden tape. Nice 60 I couldn't find the number 60 out of 150 Nice one for William in the Seahawks. Is that numbered? No, it's just gold foil. Oh I see what you're saying. Yeah, so since that wouldn't be as controversial now Maybe he wouldn't wear a dress Dennis Rodman would figure out something else. Yeah, he probably would No doubt about it making myself a little space here. All right, this is XR. There's Dalvin cook It's 99 and Calvin Harmon to 249 There's Josh Jacobs nice luminous endorsements autograph three out of 49 nice break for my Raiders Ryan Croft and There's XL materials to 25 Dwayne Haskins That's for Mike McCarthy Nice cups sold out. All right, we'll see you the cup in a couple hours Justice Hill Jersey and autograph For the Ravens Dom with the Ravens these hits aside here For the recap. All right, let's Let's work on some stuff off to the now that I have some space here to the right of the camera. I Think you can see This Nick cam above my head will keep tracking the boxes on the side here All right now, let's go to mini remember mini Chrome 2014 These mini guys there for context also There was that state farm commercial With Kenny Maine. Do you guys see that? During the during the live broadcast of the last dance It was pretty amusing. I have to admit that it got me I was like, huh, I can't even really say that back then And then I was like, oh, I get it. I get it. All right state farm. All right, I see you I don't know what Kenny Maine is doing He's doing these days. Is he still on ESPN? Yeah, still sports journalists for ESPN currently host Maine Kenny Maine's wider world of sports on ESPN.com And a weekly contributor to Sunday Countdown is weekly main event segment Yeah, I got you to Jared. Yeah, that that definitely got me Because I think the idea of the last dance Phil Jackson had already mentioned that so I was like, oh, okay So they must have did they how did they? It's not definitely that definitely got me We got Anquan Bolden some sort of I don't know what these Pulsar do they still call them that? Yeah, those are those are your size differences right there And there's David fails for the bears Jose with the bears Yeah, they're talking my Mike McCarthy saying they're talking by extending the shelter in place until mid-May around where he is in Illinois Will sports come back this year? At some point Yes Question is which sports? I don't know. It'll it'll be tricky. I think I think if sports does come back this year. I Don't think you're gonna see fans in the stands, which is gonna be weird And I think that the idea of it's out of 15 Antonio Brown. Nice. I think the idea of Of having at least Sports seasons maybe being contained in a single region or an area. I think that's Gonna gain a little more steam But I don't know I mean, you know things could change pretty quickly You know for better or for worse Hopefully for the better, but if everyone keeps doing their part it keeps their hands clean and You know stays indoor now Which I know sucks, but we do our part now Hopefully we can kind of limit this as much as possible to a point where we can Have at least life sports even if it's fanless I'll take fanless life sports My first big hit as a kid. No, I don't remember a Jared. I think I started when I was a kid probably started Just a lot like everybody else. I don't know how I started Someone must have my family's decently into sports. I was always I always loved sports since I was a kid so So I guess I guess I just must have just as a natural extension of enjoying baseball Must have somehow discovered like a pack of Baseball cards as a kid. I know my aunt got me a baseball set when I was little so yeah, I mean I think I I think just it's just become just one of those like lifelong things. There really wasn't like one big Card or one big hit That was like, oh, yeah, that's it. I think just my love for sports in general extended to Just collecting Stuff like that. I don't really do it that much anymore I think I have the luxury of I get to open up 27 boxes of a football for a football card So that definitely scratches that itch But if I didn't do this Then I'm sure I'd be just on just on the other side of the camera like you guys Watching someone open up sports cards Alright, let's go on to some of this optic the Brian Burns rookie here Current reader Terrell Suggs Yeah, well With California mid-June realistically for people to kind of get out and about We'll see yeah, is Annie Dalton to 299 Fletcher Cox to 150 Well, Jared, none of us have lives right now. So it's all right Shouldn't be shouldn't be ashamed about watching a Break that you're not even in nice. Kyler Murray hollow Trayvon Mullin jr. 299 Miss Kyler again Michael Thomas orange My thoughts on Gronk coming out of retirement. I thought he would I just didn't think you'd be for Tampa Bay All right, there you go David Montgomery bears rated rookie autographs doesn't expire until next summer not this summer next summer Jose with Chicago Would I be a big player or a small player falls on the other side of this camera? That's a good point that I think my investment would be commensurate with with What I how much money I made Not doing this This is wild it's a 2011 bowman sterling we've got One dual relic hard here, and then we've got not apple pie boxes, but I Don't know different kind of boxes The hexagon, but I don't know what to call them. They look like what do they look like? They look like They look like y-wings watch if you're Star Wars fan. There it is boom There's a y-wing right there. Let's open all once what else do they look they look like the the rubies that you get and Legends of Zelda and Zelda you get those rubies It's marking that Saints marking room on the front by the way All right, we're back to what Kyle was asking. I thought that Gronk would return. I Think Andrew Luck's gonna return to I Thought Brady would go back to New England. I thought Gronk would join him.  Well, I mean Just kind of rest his rest his body and then you know if it came to a point where he was like Oh, yeah, I still love football. I want to play. I want to do the grind He would just go back to New England with Brady That just that just didn't happen Andrew Luck. I have Joe pop. He's saying Gronk and luck just needs to get healthy Yeah, I I think Andrew Luck will take like I mean, maybe Andrew Luck will even take this year off too. I don't know depending on how the NFL season goes, but I Think once he gets himself right then I think he's you know, I Mean Andrew Luck is not Still pretty young right? 30 years old All right, so I don't know Turns 31 this September What we got here, I'm not sure how this how this break goes There's Luke stalker Well tight end for the Buccaneers William I got Vaughn Miller rookie relic Rookie relic for Ron and the Broncos there's AJ Hawk For the Packers Bradley with the pack Well, I'll see yeah, exactly. I mean Mike Towers saying do you get yourself right to play again? Or enjoy the rest of your life without pain See that I don't know. There's Greg Olson Jersey and Otto But maybe he does get right and says I miss it. I miss the game. I want to come back There's AJ green rookie relic for the Bengals. That's gonna be for Sean and there's Prince Amokimara Rookie relic for the Giants Kessler with that one Brooks Reed. There's a mod Bradshaw Running back for the Giants that'll be for Kessler There's Leonard Hankerson relic for Mike McCarthy Right. Yeah, maybe though. There's gonna be some things Sean Corbett's mentioning Maybe some stuff that changes in the CBC THC You know those those pain relieving sort of stuff Leonard Hank it's an autograph. Maybe those change in the CBA and That might that might you know Sway player a player like Andrew love Andrew Lux caliber to come back. Maybe for Short contract see how he feels, you know says hey, maybe I want to give it a shot for a couple years See if he can go or not CBD that is oh it already did No, well, that's the case. Oh, that's like rocks back then There's Steven Ridley Speaking of the Patriots nice one for Steven Kay and the Pats So, yeah, maybe maybe that's why yeah, that's why it's coming back. I get it. Okay. There's Edmund Gates So, yeah, maybe that maybe that leads the way for Pave the way for Andrew Luck. I don't know. Maybe there's some things that he's like, all right So we'll see There's DeMarco Murray For the Cowboys ASA with the boys There's Jimmy Smith Mike Pouncey autograph for the Dolphins that'll be for Josh Hoffman There's even really I mean, I can't imagine Gronk staying Staying too much longer. I don't think he's gonna. Yeah, I don't think he'd stay past Brady I mean unless he just has some sort of physical revival In his body and he thinks he can he can move on And keep playing without Brady then maybe maybe he will I don't know TBD Mark Ingram Ryan Williams will be your dual relic. That'll be a randomizer at the end of the break Let's keep plugging away here. Let's I'm gonna set that off just off camera right there So I remember to randomize it remember this Remember clear vision That's a stuff. I thought this was an interesting idea. I like the packaging. That's for sure What should I bring this back? I feel like they just needed a few tweaks a few tweaks to the Few tweaks to the just Configuration they could have made it really solid. I thought but they did it for a couple years, and I don't think it came back What year is this is the James Winston here. This is 2015. I think they did it a couple years And then they then they said eh There's Michael Floyd Big jumbo relic there for Travis and the Cardinals Didn't look like it was numbered Travis. Yeah, not numbered. That's number Jay Ajay 99 John Riggins as a jet rookie Nelson Aguilar I Remember the autographs weren't there wasn't like an Ottawa box, which I hope that they would do These are pretty cool though. They introduced these Mike Evans Clarity That's for Sean There was a blast from the past clear vision. All right, what else let's dig back here to some old tops finest going back to 2011 Where does it where does this guy go? I guess I think I still out there Yeah, I think clear vision was the answer was Panini's answer to high-tech, but then they never really Follow through with it and it looked cool. I thought there was some potential there Yeah, Sean's thinking maybe they're doing some similar designs Are they're doing these designs as inserts and maybe it'll come back. I don't know. These are the days when they gave you Gave you the checklist right there. That's what you can get Someone's got to give Cam Newton a chance, right? Who could you if you if I could tell you hey Cam Newton 100% healthy Who's taking Cam Newton? If somehow you could do a medical Cam Newton 100% healthy What team wants him? I mean Patriots need a QB are they rolling with maybe they're rolling with Jared sit him Buffalo doesn't need one Jets no Dolphins, I don't know Maybe the Dolphins figure we don't take a quarterback this draft improve everything else Raven Ravens no Ravens. No sealers probably won't go for it grounds. No bangles. No Texans know Titans know Colts know Yeah chiefs know Broncos know Raiders know chargers maybe They might want to just go draft Eagles know Cowboys know Giants know Redskins know Packers Redskins either Ron Rivera reunited with Cam Newton probably not Packers know Vikings know bears lions Saints know Falcons know Buccaneers know Panthers know Niners know Seahawks know Rams know Yeah, the chargers guys here in the chat J-Dog are emphatic about About not wanting him him not having a chance to go there So maybe not You think he's a divas is deporter is he? I don't know. I don't I don't follow Cam Newton that closely. I Haven't really felt that There is Taiwan Jones. I remember him 336 out of 589 even cases XFL. Well, that's done I mean unless should we buy the X to Jasper's buy the X FLA's gentlemen. They filed for bankruptcy. They're looking to sell Should we buy the XF? We don't have XFL money. Yo, we'll take him as a backup in Buffalo. I Don't know if he'd he says it. I mean That probably make logical sense. I don't know maybe Spend a year as a beat he's not gonna do that if I'm a if I'm a former MVP starting quarterback You know, I'm not selling for a backup job You know who should who might settle for who should settle for a backup job Maybe James Winston should you don't think James Winston could benefit from from sitting behind a veteran quarterback and You know maybe marinating for a season before he He goes out into the into the world again There's Daniel Thomas to 130 Is it a coincidence that Cam and James are both out right now past sexual assault charges? Yes Because there's probably a lot of NFL players with sexual assault charges that do have jobs right now Grab illusions back and it's hiding back here No one's gonna take Newton as a starter. That's the trouble. I think he's an oh, yeah, I think you're right I think he's in a weird no-man's land if I could get a hundred percent Cam noon I might give give him a shot, but he also wants that. Hey, I'm a former starting quarterback former MVP money He wants that money, too. I don't know if he's gonna get that So who knows?  I Would I was born with a a a Wildcat in my in my hand a Baby Wildcat in my hand You know my first words Darren Porter were claws up Those are my first words before mom before dad Yeah, I had a Wildcat foam finger in the crib Was born and raised LA Wildcats. I mean that's my team That's my team. Oh, that's that's a good question. I don't know probably not Are you supposed to drink a smoothie when a paper straw? Like disintegrates the straw this doesn't that doesn't work good question about the Good question about the rookie photo shoot. I feel like I don't know where they're gonna do it I feel like they'll move it to a central location or Maybe they'll get I don't know. They'll probably have to be creative with how they how they do because a lot of these designs For the rookies anyway, a lot of these designs Right are from photographs from the from the photo shoot Obviously some sets will use live Will use like in-game action But a lot of this stuff especially like the portrait poses and even some of these action stuff are all derived from That rookie photo shoot that happens in LA about a week or so after the draft So they're gonna have to get creative with it You know, they may have to just They may take college footage You know, maybe maybe do some more of that. There's the Sean Hamilton going to the Broncos Yeah, maybe more selfies, you know, that could be an interesting thing Maybe you see maybe more artist canvas type card Jeff piece is saying maybe there's it's gonna be more artsy sort of stuff So I could see that happening You know until they can get live shots, you know, I mean and they'll probably be more aggressive about about getting live Photography at games early on There's ardent keys so they can include that into designs All right, so there's oh, there's that in case card in here, which is an autograph Derwin James rookie Derwin James 71 out of 100 and the redemption is Jaleel Scott first impressions autograph memorabilia Ravens, I think Yeah, Baltimore Ravens that'll be for Dom slide these over here. All right, let's keep rolling. Let's keep rolling Let's go old again. Let's go back to back in time to 2010 tops platinum football I think the other thing that happens at that rookie premiere, which is here in LA every year Is that they they do have like I think they have like rookie orientations here and they have You know, and then a lot of the you know first-round players take a lot of business meetings and stuff because you know A lot of agencies are here and it's just a big central location where they can all kind of gather together before they disperse Into the to the NFL the wilds of the NFL so Yes, sorry that was charged. Did I not say chargers? Yes, that's you Derwin James great corner for the San Diego for the Los Angeles Charters most Charles young Nick really cleaned up the vaults this guy. Well, I'll tell you what We've barely made a dent into the vault. It looks like the Looks like the oh safety. Sorry. Is he a safety really? probably played corner a defensive back for the for the Los Angeles football chargers like that derailed the chargers last year It was like Derwin James got hurt and then was out for a while and then that kind of Unsettled the defense and then all just kind of There's more injuries and the Gordon Melvin Gordon hold out and Didn't quite all click last year I'm surprised the chargers are really sticking with with Tara Taylor Next box Good luck. There was a card. Yeah, there was Tara Taylor's better than Derek Carr. Maybe Marginally I'd say I'd say Derek Carr is probably a little bit better than Tara Taylor Before you start Sean. No, I don't need to see The next level stat so you're I know you're just typing up pro football reference right now I don't need to see that. I'm watching up football. There's Anthony Dixon. I think the charges will probably go for You don't think they'll go for we got a couple staunch chargers fans here and Adam and Sean You don't think they're gonna go for a quarterback in the first round the So would David Carr what the NFL Network analyst Taylor price to 599 That'll be for the Patriots. That's for Stephen K. I think I could bring this list or I don't remember Taylor price Remember Taylor price Stephen K. You don't Adam doesn't want a quarterback, but you believe there's a chance it happens Tara Taylor's okay, but I just can't Can't shake the feeling that it's gonna be like the Colts and Jacobi of reset You know where they do a year of him sometimes he looks good sometimes he doesn't and You know and then you're just like oh, man Well, no surprise charges went with a quarterback in the draft the following year in 2021 There's Jonathan Cron you guys remember Jonathan Crompton Kyle B You predict breeze will retire in the next one to two years. I think he only has a two-year contract So I wouldn't be surprised a Hotter tag would be if you say he retires after this year in the middle of his two-year deal Doesn't he have a he has a TV deal with someone I feel like already feel like he has one foot out the door already He's had a pretty great career. There's our Monty Edwards 800 There's rookie Gronk right there Just came back to the league Patriots Stephen K Rookie Rob Gronkowski. Sorry. I forgot that he went to Arizona But he had a lot of fun there. All right, let's get some of the heavier base stuff out of the way About this old bowman chrome. Remember this bam 2014 bowman chrome football Stephen K might be lagging a little bit. He hasn't seen the Gronk yet. He's just talking about Taylor Price He'll catch up Take the Gronk will definitely be more than that Taylor price out of Easily. All right. This is what old bowman chrome football. You still like kids Jadavion Clown and now clown he's got a bruise shoulder Guys remember that press conference and Jadavion Clownie was at Was he a was he a game cock?  I Forget who the coach is One of those southern coaches with with an excellent accent. This is when Clownie Was like was he gonna play was he not he was just that incredible and they're just like You know, and he didn't know who was gonna play was it Spurrier Sam Strayer saying Steve Spurrier. Yeah, there's a great press conference He was just so he was in a he's in the middle of a press scrum, I think he was He's just so frustrated. It's like well now clown. He's got a bruise shoulder and No, it's like he was so frustrated. I was like all poor coach. It's all right coach now clown. He's got a bruise shoulder Doesn't know he's gonna play or not. Okay, and Stephen Kay has caught up nice. Welcome Here's Mike rookie Mike Evans right here to 199 for the Buccaneers Shawn a lot of a lot of blasts from the past here Jeremy Hill Trent Richardson Everyone loved him Then we got Taj Boyd all member Taj Boyd To 271 So much Taj Boyd in these old sets Blake Bortles remember how hot Blake Bortles was it? I remember the Blake Bortles Super Fracture out of out of this went for Many thousands of dollars Blake Bortles Blake Bortles stuff was hot Blake Bortles Super Fractor must have gone for 20 Thousand dollars maybe back in the day Monty ball to fit. I think he's the Mike. I think he's the backup for golf Here in LA yep Darren Porter remember Bishop Sanky. There's John Brown Although John Brown still plays he's he's effective That'll be for Travis Zach Mettenberger, right Z meth remember he autographed his His autographs were Z and then it looked like METH and wouldn't really finish it off. So it did look like look like Z meth double o three out of 199. There's Lorenzo, Talia Farrell there's Tops chrome the Johnny Manziel year one autograph per box 2014 edition his old Matt Patricia with the pencil in his ear When are the Lions gonna get one of you guys gonna get Lions fans? When are you guys getting rid of Matt Patricia? the guy with a pencil in his ear but Laminated play cards in his hands. I feel like there was an interview that he did I forgot what it was for there was maybe some some TV special or NFL Network special or something like that where they interviewed him and He had that GD pencil in his ear for that interview as well It's like come on that pencil out of there Daniel Posey Sound is muted. So you know, well, I'm in the middle of a break Daniel Can someone tell him? Yes, we will check our email. I don't check the email though, but I'm sure someone will see it Is it a wax pencil? You think he's getting that Ticonderoga money My tower think he's getting that Ticonderoga money You think he's going you think he's going number two to be Wait notorious PIT The is the email or check your spam folder It might have ended up there If it's not in your spam folder, then I then maybe I Don't know Sorry, I'll be able to check all that in a couple in an hour or so. I'm almost Think we're this break is going a little bit faster than I thought Did not end up in your spam folder then shoot us an email notorious pit Jasper's case breaks at gmail.com Now we're we've been working with with a smaller staff because of The COVID craziness so your email responses may not be as quick, but Remind me again Daniel after at the end of this break And then I'll make sure we received it at least all right, thanks you guys Show spots available, but you bottom hmm notorious pit for a different order Yes, you just know okay. Maybe this is a not just a nicely did incident hang on We're shipping a boatload of stuff at the moment. So But we've been trying to stagger hours as much as possible It's not everyone's here at the same time you think be humorous if they had a effective insert set my towers Hey, like a he's all right insert set instead of like you know Instead of like bazooka bonkers insert said I'll just be like he's okay There's Mohammed Wilkerson. It was I the he's I insert set Pretty funny. There's a fancy focus Adrian Peterson to 99. I Remember I feel like these were somewhat short printed. So they had some extra values might be worth looking at I remember CJ Federovic Maybe Panini took a lot of photos at the This is tops. I know but maybe maybe in anticipation of the rookie premiere not maybe being delayed Maybe they took maybe they went to the combine that still happened right took a bunch of pictures at the combine There's rookie Odell Beckham jr. Jarvis Landry and many guy Calvin Johnson 3 out of 99 sepia sepia sepia sepia Justin Tuck blue wave Raiders and Keen now. All right, we are chugging along. Oh, let's get that elite out of the way That 20 elite was buried back there 2011 lead It's buried back there Jeff P saying they could use yearbook photos. That'd be pretty funny Now introducing 2020 Panini yearbook football Where we take your favorite draft picks Show you their Their yearbook photos from their senior year of high school Why would you risk this Heineken commercials confusing? Why would you risk being in the car with what appears to be a beer? But isn't that just invite trouble? Trouble from the the authorities Yes, Theo I personally won't be But I'm sure sure someone will Show what about a fourth fifth round rookie card set like the Ginter tear up cards Were you kind of what if you don't cut it open? There's like a mini of another six percent or two may make it Okay, I mean, there's a lot of details there that I can't process right now Well, I'm opening these things up, but I I do want more rip cards And then more rip cards inside a rip card I'd like to see more box toppers that you can rip to find another card inside that you can rip They can find another card that you can rip. I Would love to see that How many sets at the start of your use still use college photos a good handful? I don't think you see at least going by last year. I feel like the first set with With players in their pro uniform didn't happen until Maybe a little a little bit before The season started so there's at least a handful of of like prism draft and those draft type products Well, there you will where they will use that so there. Yeah, there's so there's a number of college sets There's down in distance Sidney Rice 299 I'm Roy Halu June. Wow. They use a stamp redemption card. I forgot about that I'm not gonna take the time now that Panini's Hates redemptions now got too many boxes to do. All right. We got David Gerard Gerard Gerard Going to Bradley and the Jags Craftsman really all right. No problem pit. Thanks for thanks for letting us know is any anyone else having That a similar issue because I see a lot of orders coming in so a lot of people must have ordered but not Okay. Well, can you let Nick know about he said he'll Yeah, talk talk to right Hang on a second. I'm gonna Pause the video really quick or no Mute the video really quick. All right. So TJ Leonard. You're experiencing the same thing. All right. Well, here's what's gonna happen I know there that you've purchased spots And if it looks like they're still available, here's what we're gonna do It'll be the first 10 if let's say if it's a 10 spot break. It'll be the first 10 people Who place their orders? Who will have those first 10 spots anyone else who accidentally buys those extra spots will just be refunded So if you're worried about getting spots Then we'll try to oh, but if you're not receiving order confirmation, that means we're probably not receiving order confirmations Well, we'll have to sort this out. Nick Jaspie is on a he's on with our content management Service he's on with Shopify right now. So he'll We'll figure it out. Looks like Jason Is dealing with the same thing on his end too. So sorry folks We'll figure we'll figure it out The best way possible um There's no inception transcend and transcend at Hall of Fame drops Later this week. Ask for your other questions. Those are those are personal Yeah, thank you Daniel for forwarding that too. Yeah, we'll we'll look into it And we'll try to figure it out Good news is I guess if no one can place orders and maybe Your spots shouldn't be shouldn't be a snag Oh the inception break to get a spot into transcend. Is that is it sold out? Well, whenever I get to uh, finish this break and then go through orders And then we'll see. Oh, it is sold out. Okay. So whenever i'm done with this And then I go and then whenever we figure out that order issue And we'll figure it out Exactly Rob. Yeah Whenever it happens, it'll happen. Eventually some point today It'll happen Daniel Jones autograph nice out of absolute Why are there no signed Antonio Brown cards, Rob? only because He doesn't didn't feel like it There's Antonio Brown 25 though A lot of times after your first year the I'm not sure exactly how the points And there's a team Tams and King Butler Larry Fitzgerald for the for Travis. Um, I think after your rookie I don't know exactly how this works, but I think after your rookie year. They're your obligation to sign cards Is kind of goes away There's Jarrah Sidham. So after that And Evan Ingram another giant nice couple of great giants for for kessler After that, they're not obligated to sign. I think part of your rookie contract is that you have to sign At least for your first year Then after that, you don't have to At least that's how it goes in recent years so Panini can approach Antonio Brown and say hey, you want to sign autographs for this And I think one of two things happened Antonio Brown says yes or no If yes, Antonio Brown will be like, okay Him and his agent will be like I want this much money for every autograph I sign and then panini goes No, or they'll go yes And then it ends up in sets Or not But yeah, that's a pretty common question. We're like, hey, why wasn't this guy? Why isn't so-and-so in this in such-and-such set? Either party can say like no Whether it's manufacturer saying you charge too much Or to get this deal done it costs too much and it's not worth it Or the or a lot of times it's usually the player the player usually is like No I don't feel like signing a thousand cards for set XYZ In a broad sense, that's how it kind of goes All right, Curtis Martin to 199 Sam Bradford We've got brashad paramount.

According to South China Morning Post, Trevor used daily routines and goals to help him deal with anxiety and depression but saw his routine turn on its head with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic last year. Speaking to the publication, the comedian opened up about the toll the coronavirus had on mental health. It was terrible. Are you kidding me? If anyone struggles with depression, if anyone's working through anxiety, you can do a good job of managing that. You can manage how you eat, you can manage how you exercise, how you get fresh air, how you associate with people. All these things contribute to your mental health. Having it all stripped away at once took a toll on society that I don't think we've begun to understand, he said. He recounted how the pandemic had forced him to slow down, admitting he was a bit of a workaholic. I've spent more than a decade working non-stop, which is a badge of honor in America. In many other parts of the world, people would say, you have a problem. I've missed weddings. I've missed birthdays. I've missed funerals. Then something like this happens and you go, man. I've missed a lot of life. Trevor spoke candidly about his battle with depression in a GQ interview last year. Sometimes you wake up and you're like, I don't want to do this today. That's one of the greatest blessings the Daily Show has given me. Two of the best things for depression are routine and goal-orientated tasks. Every day I have to make a show. Every day I have to finish the show. Every day I have to let go of the show. He told PeopleUS in 2017 that he had worked hard on his self-esteem after struggling for several years, saying he looks at himself in the mirror and repeats affirmations. A lot of people make that mistake with celebrities and people who are in places that are prominent. They go, you're just having a good time. You don't have issues. No, everyone's got issues with self-esteem. Some people do not, but most people do.


Hi, so there's a term you might come across or might have come across a couple times in doing your translations and that's back translation. So today I just wanted to talk a little bit about back translations, talk about what they are when they're used, why they're used, etc. So back translation is a term which literally means a translation back. So if you translate something from Italian to Spanish, then you can translate it, you can proofread it, you can edit it, etc. But then a back translation means that you translate it from the Spanish back into the Italian to make sure that it retains its original meaning. Now back translations are usually not performed by choice or because the company wants it but because due to law. You see them very often for medical translations, pharmaceutical translations, they're used for clinical trials, they're used for IRBs, institutional review boards. So if you deal with medical or pharmaceutical translations you've probably come across them or you will soon. You might also see it in technical translations, they're also seen very often in legal translations just because for legal purposes they need to back translate a contract to the original language and make sure everything was correct. For example if you're dealing with lawsuits or if there's a chance that you might deal with a lawsuit or something dealing with a court, etc, etc. Which makes sense because if you translate a contract into say 15 languages you want to make sure that nothing fell through the cracks and that all 15 translators got it right. So how do you handle a back translation? If you're given a back translation and you're told it's a back translation which you should be treated like a normal translation but that function takes precedence over form. You want to make sure you've got all the terms correct, you have the right tense, you know what you're saying correctly even if it sounds not completely fluid and doesn't sound like someone would say it. As long as the meaning is correct and precise that's what you need from the back translation.    And if you have any other experience with it feel free to let me know. I don't have too much experience with back translations. I've used them for some legal stuff but I don't really do medical or pharmaceutical translations so I haven't really come across them there. But regardless I hope you found this useful. If you did please click like. Please feel free to subscribe for more videos about freelancing, freelance translation and I'll see you next time. Save dum!
