Okay, welcome back everyone to our second lecture BC 212 Christian apologetics I'm going to look at the questions in the chat So it's one question John Paul Muslims descendants of Ishmael or as it was starting here 680 doesn't hold true Now the question is do they call Allah as our God the father and Jesus as Ishana be Well, the converse should be accept this when they mention and I think related to that is another question from Elijah is the Muslim Allah same as the God of the Christian So Yes, the first part of the question John's question So traditionally the Arabs descendants of Ishmael, so we know that God had promised Abraham a son Who eventually was Isaac but before that he had Ishmael who Then the descendants of Ishmael became You know to say a thorn in the flesh or thorn on the side to The Jews the descendants of Isaac and today we trace That the Arab world part of the Arab world as descendants of Ishmael but not all Muslims are descendants of Ishmael because obviously you have Muslims all over the world in India and Southeast Asia and Other places who have no connection to the Arab world. They're just different races who have thereafter Embraced Islam so To answer that question Not all Muslims are descendants of Ishmael, but The descendants of Ishmael eventually became You know came under Under what the Prophet? Mohammed started as Islam. So to that extent There is that Connection and they trace theologically they trace their roots back all the way to Adam and the second by the question which overlaps for that Elisha asked you see when Then when the Muslim uses Allah is referring to God But who is the God is he referring to the God of the Bible? The answer is no Because the God of the Bible is a triune God Allah is not The God of the Bible came in God the son came into this world That's not Allah Who he did not send his son into this world? so to answer the question the Allah that The Muslims refer to is not the same as The triune God of the Bible. It's different. So we shouldn't confuse the two now when Muslims refer to Jesus as a prophet remember, they're not referring to him as a son of God So just because they refer to Jesus as Isha now be meaning is Jesus the Prophet They are not recognizing Jesus for who he is The son of God so it's not the same So on both these grounds it's very clear that The Allah that the Muslim refers to is not the God of the Bible The Jesus the Muslim refers to is Not Jesus The son of the living God so accepting or I should put it like this Accepting Jesus prophet as he's on a be is Not the same as accepting Jesus Christ the Son of God now eventually if they Make the transition saying the Jesus whom they refer to as a prophet is actually Jesus of the Bible. Okay, that's fine but just referring to him as Isha now be You know our prophet would not be the same and we should not win our conversations. We should not refer to Jesus as prophet we should refer to Jesus as God who became man That's the Jesus we want to present but as a starting point, you know, yeah, they when we say Jesus Of course, they're thinking Jesus as the prophet We are thinking about Jesus the God who became man, right? So this is different, but we need to be clear About the Jesus we are presenting Jaffina's question Muslim to believe in Jesus But they say Jesus pointed at the father only then why are you worshipping him? Well, you're supposed to worship his father whom we call us. How can we respond to this? So so this is where we have to talk about So when we're communicating with the Muslim, we want to emphasize that So as far as possible, we try to avoid bringing in this whole idea of son of God and Son of man those those titles of Jesus, you know later on they would hope they can understand it But when we start talking with his son of God, then obviously they have questions, you know But when we say Jesus is God who became man, so we present Jesus God who became man, which is true That the God had got the father got the son or got the father of God the eternal word God the spirit the triune God of the Bible God the eternal word became man That as Jesus crashed and he came to do it, you know set us free So if we explain that but it's not just so on the earth when he walked on the earth He had the title as son of God So that's it So that son of God is only a title given to him when he walked on the earth, but who was this person?  Yeah So let's go back to the notes Yeah, so when we are communicating with a Muslim We want to emphasize a loving creator God The the the fact that God the nature of God that God is a loving creator as opposed to As opposed to a God that we just submit to and you know just Serve out of fear and so on Then Secondly, we are talking about sin that affects the relationship Between God and man sin that affects the relationship Between God and man and The third point that we want to emphasize is about forgiveness Now like we said earlier this whole idea of personal sin personal forgiveness Is almost as I would use the word neglected. It's not emphasized What is emphasized is? You've lived like a good Muslim you follow the rules As long as everything is okay in terms of you following, you know, the rules things are okay So this whole the emphasis on your sin, you know, you if you do something wrong your sin You're accountability to God and you being forgiven by God is is not really emphasized Ultimately, if you live like a good Muslim walk in submission Allah will decide to accept you but we can Emphasize forgiveness at a personal level Right, so and forgiveness as something you can know that you are forgiven So for how a Muslim, you know Cannot know he's forgiven for the wrong he's done personally On what basis can he know that his sins are forgiven? He doesn't know right but when we present Jesus Christ as the one who paid for our sins and and Because of him, you know, we are forgiven we can you know explain to them the importance of Christ's sacrificial death on the cross now in that context in that context and I you know and Just to point to something that they commemorate, you know, which they do is to How Abraham sacrificed his son, which is which see they trace their back their history back all the way to Adam So Abraham is an important part of the whole history So We could use that to Point to Christ's sacrificial death and I'm not saying it's necessary or important just a thought but the point is to ever to talk about the fact that God is a personal God he loves us sin effects our personal relationship with God and God came into this world to pay for our sins So on that basis we can experience forgiveness of sins that is totally foreign to The Muslim faith That my sin was paid for so that therefore I can receive forgiveness of that's that's non existent No idea like that in their faith Right now it is you serve you follow you keep the you know the five practices you'll be a good Muslim Allah may accept you you say sorry for what you've done But you don't know whether you're forgiven or not you'll have to wait and see but If we are able to Convince them or help them see The love of God God coming in the person of Jesus Christ paying for our sins and And on that basis our sins are being forgiven that we personally can know we are forgiven. That's a powerful truth for them Another important part of the truth that we need to present which is Non-existent in their understanding of Religion or faith is the fatherhood of God We we mentioned about God's nature presenting God's loving nature Here here the God's a loving Creator in contrast to Allah who is Just somebody to be served and Then when we emphasize that God actually we can actually come into a personal relationship with God and You can be a son or a daughter That is you know quite startling or quite different to anything that they have been taught They have heard That God can be your father That you can come into the family of God That you can be a son of God a daughter of God You can call God your father worship of as your father and you have a pretty personal relationship with him so that is a big point of difference and Lastly The way we live Christian life we emphasize a Walk of love as Christ taught We emphasize God's written word and we emphasize God leading us by his own personal presence Now so Holy Spirit We can explain to them as God's presence in our lives or you know They slowly they will understand you know when the whole thing about incarnation God the son This you know and the Holy Spirit they will come to understand but initially, you know We have to put it in simple terms. We said God's word God's presence in our lives as opposed to the decree issued by a local religious leader because This one is based on somebody's I would say women fancy somebody's making a rule and The rest of the community is following that rule Whereas in the Christian life we all follow God's word and God's Holy Spirit and we have to walk in love So that's how we live of a Christian faith in contrast to Fatwas being assured or decrees being received from a local religious leader So just to recap here, what are we going to do when we share the gospel? With a Muslim these are the some points of emphasis The nature of God loving created God the importance of you know the emphasis of Personal sin and how it personally affects our relationship with God Explaining how forgiveness personal forgiveness can be received through what God did for us But coming into this world dying for us So when we talk about Jesus talk about Jesus as God who came into the world and now try to avoid using as far as Possible the titles of son of God and son of man and all of that God came into this world, which is true Right so God came Now if they do ask why you say son of God then we explain no on the earth you walked as a man in submission To God, so he's called the son of God But other than that just focus on the fact that God came into this world as a man to bear our sin So we could be forgiven Then we are emphasizing the fatherhood of God that we can enter into the family of God as sons and daughters of God and How we live the Christian life Now just some additional thoughts here is like I said There are many different reasons why a Muslim would come to faith in Christ One ears Because of a personal supernatural encounter With the Lord right whether it's through a vision or a dream or through a healing miracle or The powerful encounter just like we mentioned for the Hindus. So that's one Way we see Hindus coming. Sorry Muslims coming to faith Second we see Muslims coming to faith because of The The gospel accounts That means, you know, there are testimonies of Muslims reading the gospels seeing the life of Christ and being shocked that That you know the the the life of Jesus is so much in contrast to What they see in the Quran and Again, I'm not saying this in a very demeaning way, but Muhammad was supposed to have had so many wives and You know, he lived such a terrible life Which they are all aware of and Then in contrast to that to read the life the ministry and the teachings of Jesus as the gospels opens their eyes because They've always been told, you know, Jesus is a prophet leave him alone focus on Mohammed and Except Mohammed for who he is and the way he lived and all that he did But they've never been exposed to who Jesus really is so we have Muslims coming to faith by just reading the gospels and knowing for them seeing for themselves the life of Jesus Christ and his teachings that his teachings are so different from what Mohammed taught nor the Quran teachers Hey, so you have Muslims who come to faith because of that and Thirdly, yeah, Muslims have come to faith just because of The the gospel message the fact that you can come into a personal relationship with God You can be forgiven that God can become your father That again, like we said like what we explained here is a very very different Very different from what they have heard and what they've been taught Right, so keep this in mind that there is no there's no one wait for a Muslim There's this this not like everybody has the same experience. There are those who Have personal encounter with Jesus supernatural encounter. There are those who are affected by the gospel account of Christ and then there are those who are affected by the gospel message, which is That you yes, you could have personal forgiveness and come into a personal relationship with God, which is It's non-existent. It's not there in Anything that they have heard taught under Islam So when we present Jesus if we can present Jesus in this manner It's going to help them You know explore Christ and know Christ The challenge like we said earlier is The the concept of a triune God is very difficult because they've been said taught.  This is what happened but these are the points where there would be challenges but If we can present the gospel in a simple way help them see the difference that would be great so Let's pause for some questions any questions here so far everybody with me So we have touched on the two major religions Hinduism and Islam Just keep these points in your mind So whenever you enter into conversation with the Hindu or a Muslim We're able to present the gospel so the gospel message doesn't change you're presenting Jesus But how we communicate? If we can just you know be sensitive to their background then it'll help us Communicate Jesus a little more clearer for them so that they can understand who Christ is So then make a decision to follow Christ So now we're going to change Focus again And we're gonna try to look at this big area called suffering because There are a lot of questions You know, why is there suffering in this world if God is a good God? If God created everything If God loves us Why is all these things happening? You know all kinds all kinds and Then especially when you know innocent people suffer When Good people suffer See so there are a lot of these questions around this subject of suffering Why is there all? This suffering happening so we want to try to understand suffering From a biblical perspective, you know this is what the Bible says and That's all we need to understand it ourselves and then also be able to Answer questions that people ask About suffering. Okay, so we're going to shift our Thinking a little bit now if you're moving away from soul Section on the person of Christ. We're moving to another section now on dealing with questions on suffering, okay, so Let's step into that I will share the PDF What we want to do here is to get a biblical understanding of suffering and then you know try to answer questions Like I was just measuring some things You know that that come around around this whole area of suffering and Evil that we see in the world so To get an understanding a biblical understanding of suffering we need to start with the God's heart, I mean Because many times people blame God for suffering people blame God, but we need to get a right picture So let's start at the very beginning Right now what we see here, and I'm not turning to all the scriptures But I want to just mention in Genesis chapter one very first chapter After God created everything the Bible says God saw all that he'd created and he saw that it was good You know that means in God's original creation in his original work on the earth There was no evil. There was no sin. There was no sickness that he had put on this planet and Secondly we see in chapter two that he had kept the tree of life And he told Adam you can eat of the Adam and Eve, you know, you can eat of this tree of life and What was this tree of life for? if you look in Revelation 21 and 22 it just Talks, you know indicates and not states directly, but it indicates Healing for the nations or wellness or wholeness or life and strength so It doesn't mean Adam and Eve were going to fall sick because there was no sickness. There was no sin But there was already something that God had kept in the garden for Adam and Eve to have that would just perpetuate just keep on giving them life strength and wholeness and That's what he's going to do in the new heavens and the newer There's going to be the tree of life whose leaves are for the healing of the nations That means it's there that you know, it's interesting because 21 in chapter 21 22 said there will be no more sickness no more pain no more suffering and there's also this tree of life So it's not to cure her but it's to perpetuate to just continue to give us life strength and wholeness so If you look at the beginning the first part there was no suffering There was no pain. There was no sorrow. There were no tears. There was no anguish it was not there in the garden before the fall and When we look into Revelation 21 22 we see It's not there in the new heavens and the new earth Okay, so In the beginning and in the future These things that cause pain and sorrow and tears and anguish and suffering are Not there. So in the beginning and even in the future They're not there. So we must therefore Understand who God is in this context and We must say that Or I would say it's safe to say it's safe to come to this conclusion That it is not the heart of God for people to experience suffering pain sorrow tears and anguish That's not God's original intent Why because it was not there in the beginning and it is not going to be there in the future So that's something very that's clearly indicating to us God does not want it for us Others you would have kept it there, you know make sure there's always suffering pain sorrows and tears He would have made sure it was already there in the garden before the fall But that's not the case So what I'm trying to say is you look at God's plan overall plan and try and then we can come to this conclusion that It is not God's it is not in God's heart for All the suffering and evil and sin and pain and all those things. That's not part of his heart so We know that before the fall Lucifer and his fallen angels were there and But they had rebelled against God God didn't create them that way they had to be like it's God they were cast out of heaven and They made it their agenda to get a place on earth so Lucifer Came Satan came in the form of a serpent He deceived Adam and Eve Got them to disobey God and then Sin came into this world and that Disobedience is what opened the door to all form of evil, but remember That this was not the plan of God it was not God's original intent God didn't plan for Adam to sin and For all this thing to come into the world that was not He told Adam don't eat Of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you eat from the tree of life So demonstrate your obedience and have a long life But the devil got it up opposite. He said If you know basically if you disobey God, I'm gonna you will experience death and that's what the devil got Adam and Eve into and That opened the door to all kinds of evil So We should not blame God even for the original sin It was Adam's responsibility We shouldn't blame God for the door being opened to evil coming into this world God didn't open the door Adam did and Through Adam's disobedience Adam and Eve and I say Adam I mean both Adam and Eve they disobeyed God and through that came physical spiritual death and physical death and everything that followed and So now this earth that God created which was perfect and good which he didn't trust it to Adam and Eve Adam and Eve opened the door Let the enemy come in and with it all sin and sickness and disease everything coming in But in the midst of that the Bible says God continues to work And what does God do? He executes loving kindness justice and righteousness So God is still willing to work or God is still working on the earth Even though the door has been opened by Adam and Eve to the devil and what he's doing but God is still working and so What we need to understand and in our minds is We are seeing suffering and evil in this world God is a big God very powerful God Who is also working on the earth but why is all this going on and What? What good can come out of all this? That's something we need to try and understand and when we face or when we see things happening In our minds we need to be able to To whatever extent possible See the big picture And even though in a specific situation we may not have an answer At least we can see the big picture and say okay, you know what? From the perspective of the big picture. I can understand it. I May not have an answer for every individual situation It is painful what people are going through but at least I understand the big picture and that can give us some sense of Resolution so Let's look at it suffering Ever since the fall Sin came into this world and they've been the associated evil and Jesus made it very clear in John 16 verse 33 He said in this world you will have Tribulation But be of good cheer. I have overcome the world So he said you know peace I leave with you my peace I gift you not as a world gives give I into you That's not your heartbeat trouble. I did not be afraid And he said in this world You know, you will have tribulation. So there is Tribulation difficulties hardships all kinds of things happening in this world We understand that we are not denying that Secondly, we understand that suffering could be in different areas. It could be spiritual. It could be emotional. It could be physical Then the enemy Satan attacks Causing problems in all these areas and there are other reasons why there are problems happening Spiritual emotional physics and all in all realms There is suffering people can face pain and hurt and distress in all of these areas but biblically if we want to break it down and Understand why is there suffering? I want us to look at these Reasons here and we will go through this each of these in detail But biblically when we break it down Why do people face suffering? Why do things happen now want to break and I break it down into these six six statements or you know, you can say categories one there is suffering due to What people refer to over the Bible refers to as the bondage of corruption We'll talk about it Then there is suffering due to one's own actions Then there is suffering due to satanic oppression. That means the devil does things Then there is suffering due to other people's actions. That means other people are being evil causing pain and suffering to others There is suffering due to divine judgment and God has to judge sin and Then there is suffering due to willing sacrifice That means people are you know do this willingly and they fit you know, they they are willing to endure suffering so Let's try and understand each of these as we You know try to understand this subject of suffering. Let me pause here. I just want to make sure we're all together So far everyone's fine you're together any questions, okay, let's move forward Let's get started with the first one suffering due to the bondage of Corruption So let's turn our Bibles to Roman separate. I'll just introduce this and we will explain it further next week Let's go to Romans up to eight Let's read please somebody could read for us It's a 17 to 23 please somebody could read that passage for us We'll get started and we'll go into it Romans chapter 8 verse 17 to 23 now hope we are children then we are hairs hairs of God and co-heirs of trust But indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory I Consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be believed in us For the certain way for the creation rates in eager Expectation for the children of God to be revealed for the creation was subjected to frustration Not by its own choice But by the will of the one who subjected it in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to Decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God We know that the whole creation has been growing as in the pains of childhood Right up to the present time Not only so but we ourselves who have the first booth of spirit Grown in early as the week eagerly for our adoption to some ship the redemption of our bodies Thank you So Paul In Romans 8 17 to 23 Paul He says look we are Children of God We are heirs joint heirs. I mean we have this wonderful Place The children of God. We are the heirs of God joint as with Christ. I'm looking at verse 17 now and yet We suffer and he says But if we suffer with him or for him We will be glorified. So we are as God has brought us into this amazing place of being children of God as of God Scientist with Christ and yet look. There's the other side. They're suffering here, but then the suffering is He's trying to let us know that it's a it's a Temporary time boxed thing Because after all of this we will be glorified It's going to result in some amazing glory So there is beautiful place to begin with God has brought us as children of God There's going to be glory, but now there is some suffering we're going to go through then he begins explaining to us Why there is suffering verse 18 he says, you know Yeah, I was 18 the sufferings were going through in this time boxed period of life here on earth It is it is cannot be even compared to the glory that we are going to experience in the future. So You know, let's encourage ourselves with that And then he's verse 19 and he says Even creation is waiting with expectation For the glory that we are going to partake of as sons and daughters of God means even creation is looking forward to that Just as much as we are looking forward to that glory that God will give to us Even creation is looking forward to then he begins explaining why creation is looking forward to that verse 20 because Creation was subject to futility Not willingly that means God didn't plan this God didn't want to do this But he let it happen with hope or in expectation What happened verse 21 And the the expectation is that creation will be delivered From the bondage of corruption So right now creation is in this state that we refer to as It is in bondage to corruption Now we can understand it That from the time so when God created everything everything was perfect and good But when Adam sinned everything was subject to corruption so Right now creation itself is in bondage to corruption or decay it's it has deviated from its original state of being good But verse 21 says It creation also will be delivered Just as we are going to be delivered from the present suffering Creation also will be delivered from its state of being in bondage to corruption And experience the kind of liberty that we are going to experience as children of God verse 22 He says all of creation is groaning and laboring with birth pangs until now. That's like it is also waiting you know for this glorious Day of glory that we're going to experience right now. It's going through pains and expectation of it Okay, so here's the thing All of creation Was subject put in bondage to corruption It went into corruption That means God created everything perfect He created everything To he put in all the processes everything to for fun to function well But from the time of the fall creation itself went into Corruption a decade it deviated from its original design So example Adam and Eve Created to live perpetually physically in their bodies. They would not die The bodies were not designed to die But after this fall They died spiritually And eventually Their bodies also died decade now it took time to get so imagine those days. They lived 700 years 800 years and then died Today it shortened, you know, we're 70 80 90 something like that For those days it was 10 times more and everything else that we see There was no sickness but sickness came in There was no disease disease came in Uh Babies would have been born perfect, but babies could be deformed You know, uh That was not God's design as so many things that You know, I'm sure that in God's earth At the very beginning there were no earthquakes and tsunamis and Weather phenomena that would be destructive But now creation subject to corruption They're deviating from its original design but What Paul has said here in Romans 8 is Even creation will be delivered And brought into a place of glory Which is what evolution 21 and 22 teaches And God makes new heavens and new earth None of these problems will be there so We will talk more about this next week, but the first reason why there is suffering Is because everything Which was created good From the time of fall has started deviating or going away from its original state Of being perfect It's becoming corrupted. It's became corrupt. It's decaying And God let it happen Because he knows that in the end he's going to bring it back into a place of glory Okay, so think about this we will Discuss this further next week and explain it further Take up any questions on it as well. Okay Let's close in prayer Can somebody close and pray and dismiss the class we'll get ready for our next lecture as well anybody can pray And dismiss us We thank you for this beautiful day and for the beautiful class we have God we declare that We thank you for coming down For us. Thank you for checking all our sins upon the cross. We thank you for never leaving us and we thank you for your love to us as Jesus Even though we suffer a little while here. We believe there is a great glory waiting for us. Lord Help us to strengthen ourselves and you help us to build our faith in your Jesus I Please each of my classmates into your hands be with them and guide them I bless them in the name of Jesus As we learn about you Lord as we learn about how to share the gospel with others Give us that boldness and courage to step out and to share it with love and in the right way We bless pastor ashes. We are so thankful for his teachings but be with him and be his strength in Jesus Amen, thank you everyone. God bless. Thank you And we will meet again. God bless. Bye now Thank you. Thank you everyone. God bless


Thank you Mr. Batwal for joining us. You know we live in interesting times three four things are happening around us the as I mentioned at the start the technology the digital sort of revolution is really taking charge of all parts of our life. BFSI is a sector that has kind of been at the forefront of both taking advantage of that you know digital leap as well as being at the you know forefront of innovating with products with customer reach out. So let me start with a sort of larger you know umbrella question if I may. We've seen last few years especially because of COVID digital penetration as well as you know awareness of health has significantly gone up and that's provided a lot of tailwind for the sector. But as we come out of COVID what we've seen in many other sectors in media and advertising and many other sectors that the kind of peak we achieve during COVID both in terms of you know digital usage as well as in terms of you know awareness of health that is kind of plateaued off right. What are the trends you've seen now coming out of COVID especially in the last six months for you know the sector that you operate in. Nabil firstly thank you for inviting me to be part of this program and a very good afternoon to all of you. I think first let me start by you know just giving a disclaimer that I'm not a marketing expert folks so I'm someone who runs a business so my inputs will be more from a business perspective on how I see some of these trends in the marketing area and more importantly consume the way consumers are responding to you know whatever you were just sharing early on. Like all other categories our own category saw a very significant shift in the way which in which consumers looked at digital during COVID time. I think clearly there was no option right. The physical world was non-existent and there were two or three clear trends that emerged which actually impact our category. One is the general adoption of consumers to the digital way of being. While there was definitely a segment which was much more digital ready, digital native or you know whatever term we give to that segment but even the segment which used to have their own concerns about you know using the digital segment clearly started using it because they had no option. Let me give you an example in the area of health. We used to have something called a doctor on call facility in our products very early on in our when we launched our business. No one ever used it because consumers were not comfortable. We were well ahead of time in 2016 when we brought that facility. During COVID suddenly that became a huge hit. Why because you know digital was the way of of of interaction because and you couldn't have avoided that conversation interaction with the health care facility. The whole health area actually got a significant push you know of digital adoption during COVID and you know you've seen recently the whole kind of announcement of the Aishwan health mission by the government. I think that in many ways has got accentuated by what we saw in this category but I think more importantly it gave us an opportunity to reach out to consumers at scale and more importantly at a hyper personal level. I could talk to novel as novel rather than typically what happens in any communication you know which is very generic like all of us get that but you know just just maybe I should just give you a 30 second sense of what our business is about. We run our health insurance business which is very different from what you would traditionally experience as a health insurance business. Health insurance business is all about what I call sickness insurance sickness funding. I don't think so that's the way the category can run because when we are building a lifelong relationship with consumers you have to build something more meaningful something more positive than a fear-based engagement. So we you know call ourselves a health first insurer where we engage with consumers around the team of health and then insurance you know if something happens. Now something like that is where is high engagement high-scale engagement very personal and which is where we saw that shift happening and helping us a lot so yes you're right the adoption went up but if the base was X I think clearly the next base is significantly higher than where it was and even if there is a plateau I mean I'm technically not necessarily seeing a plateau but the pace of growth that we were seeing earlier may have may have come down a bit. So definitely consumers are more willing to talk to the category on the digital world because they feel that you know it is more meaningful to them it is more personal to them than what it used to be earlier and we have leveraged that significantly you know well because I you know we think that it's it's a huge opportunity for businesses. We are also seeing that you know some of the segments like senior citizens for example we would struggle to reach out to them you know in a meaningful manner. Suddenly that segment is completely open and why it is important because that's a very important segment for you know the health insurance business. So I think newer category of segments have got completely opened up now I think it's for the businesses to respond to this willingness of consumers to engage in interact with them on the digital platform in a way that makes it more relevant for them. I think that's an opportunity we've got we have to now respond back to the consumers. Very interesting two three points you know good growth means you know bullishness for all of us it also means increased targets for next year but what it also does is it brings in you know more aggression from all the players in the market perhaps more players in the market so overall while it lifts the tide for everyone it also means more complexity for you know business owners for CEOs who are running the company more complexity for marketers in terms of reaching out you know BFSI sector is very unique in many ways but two of the important sort of pillars that stand out for BFSI sector and perhaps you can throw more light on that is one trust because you know as you rightly said it is about health and you know we all many of us for example might want the same car but when it comes to you know health related products everybody is unique so the second aspect of health is personalization right trust and personalization these are perhaps if you talk to a you know business owner or a marketer today are the most difficult puzzles to crack when it comes to sort of talking to consumers so what is your approach on that how do you kind of go about tackling these two you know very critical challenges which are important for your sector yeah I think in financial services I think the first element of trust comes from the offeror itself I mean who is the offeror which is a brand that you're representing at least in our case we're very fortunate to represent a extremely large and trust trustworthy and you know trusting brand right I mean it has a history of you know more than a hundred years therefore that's something that you know comes given to us but having said that it's it's you don't you I mean you have to earn the element of trust from consumers right and a lot of that comes from experience that and in today's digital world you know the word of mouth has a very large implication in how you know the trust in the brands you know actually moves from one to the other consumers I think that's very very clearly given in our case because of our model of a very personalized health first kind of conversation with consumers are our products for example say that you know if you live a healthy life we will reward you for good health you know the digital world gives us that opportunity all of you are smartphone users we know what's happening in your physical world in terms of your physical health and based on that and a few other you know matrix elements that we have we reward you now I'm interacting with each you know consumer therefore as a brand at a very personal level my conversation with is at a very personal level hey you know now well we saw you yesterday that you know you for example you walked x steps or you know for the last one week you were walking except suddenly realized in the next one week it has gone down is there a reason can we help you you know so I'm saying that and that conversation to novel will be very different from a email that novel gets you know walking is good you must walk I mean that would not you know is not something that because you must not because there's so much of spam junk that is you know forced upon us that unless it's hyper personalized and relevant it doesn't really appeal to the you know the brand but because of our model itself similarly we get so much health data that we are stratified and we reach out to consumers through you know all mediums including digital of course is a large-scale medium that we can talk to the consumers about their personal health n is equal to one I think that makes a difference and I think the digital medium makes it really really practical more importantly economically viable I can't deal with scale engagement in the physical world there's no way we can make that happen I think that's fair and I think if you have the right content in that communication and the right messaging of course there are aspects of behavior science etc which are coming into play so that you know the right nudges etc come into play but I think content you know becomes very critical when we reach out in the context of personal communication because content also has to be personalized it can't just be generic absolutely I think important points to make here very importantly you know how digital allows you to reach the mass scale and if I can add to that at a you know reasonable cost if you were to do it in you know the old sort of legacy world the cost would be humongous tell us coming to you know the content and the marketing part of your business I know you don't run marketing but you know when you sit down with your marketing team with a brief and every CEO today is looking at you know one investing more and experiment experimenting more and more sort of in the digital world what are the few you know KPI metrics that you tell your marketing team for to look for when it comes to use of digital to you know either reach out to customers or say run loyalty programs or run retention programs see I mean at the end of the day what are the business objectives let's say in our case what will we want to do we'll want to first reach out to a much larger base of the targeted prospect base right am I is my targeted customer base aware of what I'm offering what I stand for as a brand I think it starts with there I mean the funnel it has to be opened at that level and and there after all the other KPIs of course come in in terms of you know will the will that target set me in terms of the way you are communicating with them the content they're using are they finding that relevant to be willing to respond to that you know conversation desire of us with the targeted population right and I think the first thing is that each of these intervention you know campaign or whatever you want to call it it has to be meant for a very targeted base you know when we used to do or when we do let's say a TV campaign typically it's a much more wider mass program right I mean you you may say okay I'm I'm targeted this segment on this TV program or in on this news channel etc but you we all know that it is it's not really as segmented as you want to make it so I think in in terms of digital marketing intervention that that whole aspect of how are you making it relevant for that focus segment that you know we have given you to reach out for that's another very very important for example we recently launched a product for the millennial and I'll you know talk we'll talk about it a little bit more hopefully and you know it there's a very different way of talking to that segment then let's say if I you know when we launched our senior citizen product or you know a senior just product as they sometimes some sometimes they are called so I think that's another thing and of course many of them I normally my marketing colleagues don't like to the funnel to go back final finally to the mula the the in the in the box the cash in the box but that's something that we keep having some interesting argument that finally I want money into the organization you know you may have a wonderful you know campaign you have a month wonderful you know intervention but is the consumer finally saying yes I'm willing to sign the check you know and and and I really because but having said that there's an also a brand element about the whole you know program that is it really helping us position and create the brand that we are trying to do for example in our case we didn't want to be seen as the traditional boring reactive I don't want to really engage with this kind of a brand which the traditional insurance is known for to be hopefully seen as slightly more interesting you know seems like something worth of in a worth talking to an understanding what they're really offering and in many ways we have I must say that team has done a reasonably good job to get us a little a little bit more about that man because it's very interesting what you put across because you know health especially health insurance when it comes to that most of us wake up when we are in our 40s right when you run your 20s or 30s you know you don't bother you you go to your gym or you go running and try and take care of that even otherwise you know your body sort of supports the journey when you target million years or when you target the younger population it is doubly difficult to talk to them because that's not like a priority area right so how do you sort of crack that challenge tell us the campaign you've done tell us a little more about that yeah so it has to first start with the offering itself right because I may I may do a wonderful campaign but ultimately if the offering that is being positioned before the consumer through that campaign if it's not fitting the expectation requirement need of that consumer segment it will not so you know we've launched a product called active fit you know it's meant typically for the millennial segment you know what what was on the inside said we were getting when we reached out to the segment they said hey why should I buy insurance you know health insurance I mean I'm fairly hail and hearty I don't see myself in the hospital your you know traditionally health insurance offers hospitalization benefit I don't want to build a relationship with you we said okay what if we offer you you know a reward for staying healthy seems interesting talk more I also like like instant gratification what's in it for me year and now that's what you know I hear the millennial population say all the time I mean give me something year and now I don't want to wait for the future I mean I don't even want to wait for the end of the year or end of the month tell me what can I get now okay what if I use digital face scan technology to come understand what your health condition is instantly you know we give you a 10% discount if you're healthy okay seems interesting what more so I think there are many such benefits I don't know get into product to bore you guys but interest so now the product seems to be the offering seems to be making sense to that consumer segment how do I reach out to them how do I communicate to them which medium do I use I'm not sure TV is the best segment for that population a digital is because that's where they are I mean ultimately what is marketing all about to my mind I'm what do I expect them be where the consumer is don't call the consumer to you know where you are because that's not what will give you scale so if the consumer is at scale in the digital economy in the digital platform get there so in this campaign we said okay they must hear the messaging from people whom they can relate to so you know the protagonist in this you know the person who's playing is you know we have Ali Fazal who's taking this you know communication to that that segment on the digital world it's you know typically an insta or a you know campaign of course on other mediums as well like Facebook and YouTube etc. you know we have used influencers in a big way in this communication where people like Radhika Bose and Varun Verma who are health influencers whom we are I'm I was told that you know I was not the target segment by the way for that these individuals but I was told that the Millenians really look at them as real influencers and we use them we use some you know interesting techniques call I'm you know the photo bombing and all of stuff which really the is something used and now they are put on you know we asked our many of our consumers to create their own reels etc. so I think it was in the way the consumers kind of consume content and you know some very interesting feedback we have got so far of how we took that this both the offering how we designed the offering and how also how we took it to them through whom and etc. so something very different from what you know we did earlier for our different segments in the past. I think use of influencers really caught on in the last three years in fact last week we we did another sort of report about the influencer marketing economy you know how it's growing and some of the numbers said that you know excluding use of media almost 1500 crores is already being spent by brands and corporates on you know hiring influencers and influencers now come in all shapes and forms you know 20 years back there was only a brand ambassador which would typically be you know Bollywood Listers now you start from you know a great Bollywood Listers going down to what what is come to be known as micro and nano influencers you know people who have reach in thousands but you know very deep engagement with your community so for our health sort of focused campaign that's very interesting to look at tell me it's you know very early days when it comes to you know things like influencer marketing so a lot of companies are still experimenting trying to figure out which is the right fit you know what is the right platform to go to what is the kind of right messaging while you know you start from the top like you explained you identified the need gap you went to the millennial identified that digital is the right platform to be when it comes to the bottom of the funnel really which is about you know getting these influencers using the messaging and then doing what we call conversions or attribution how are the results you mean what were the learning from those results let me ask you what what are the things that you would do differently next time yeah so I teach in this campaign it's you know we are still in the process so you I mean probably I'm not sure I can share concrete outcomes yet I think we're still in the process because we just launched a few weeks back but from whatever we have done earlier I think see you started by saying that first is that even identifying the right set of influencers that's a journey right because you start with because you said nano influencer and if you are doing hyper personalized engagement effort then you know the choice of that nano influencer becomes very very important and of course there is there is a you know effort involved in that there's a process and there is a whole discipline of how do you convert that interest and you know that the consumer is expressing the desire that the consumer expressing to have conversation to finally onboarding with this that sometimes there's a slip in that whole process itself but I think it's it's the journey of both identifying we are going through our own learnings in terms of the content you know in terms of what is it the right content because we are not dealing with a very you know I would say glamorous category we are dealing with a category which is still not something that consumers are typically waiting it's not that you get in the morning and say hey I am going to buy health insurance today no you don't do that unfortunately though you must by the way follow all of those who don't have you must explore that it's important but you don't do that so the it's all it's also therefore what will influence so we are using some we are having some conversations with people who understand behavior science and in the way our content is created how do you build in the right nudges in that communication so sometimes it's not about just using the you know the the right influencer but what is that right message that create converts that intent into action and especially in the area of health novel and not just insurance by the way all of all of us are used to having a first January resolution for I'm going to be healthy this year and what happens on 7th or 8th of January we all know so you know it still requires a lot of discipline right so I think those are many other areas that we are constantly going back revisiting so we have on board for example someone who's a you know who's a Harvard professor expert in behavior science he's helping us kind of look at the messaging the communication etc so I think these are areas that we are going through our own learning process because we are dealing with a we are trying to do something very different especially in the category that we represent very important very interesting you mentioned you know experts in behavioral science were helping you know it's it's it's like how medicine is moving people are while you rely on modern medicine you also kind of are going back to the roads in terms of you know what in India used to be known as natural you know natural apathy relying on more natural products that's why this entire way of organic food products is kind of you know sweeping the world right now because people want to consume more and more food which is kind of unadulterated lesser on toxic value so you know health insurance is really kind of dovetails into that I see our time is up so I'll I'll ask you one last question before we throw the house open I I hear you in the sense that you know more and more of the money that you spend spending for customer reach out is happening on the digital platforms legacy media still has value right you spoke about television briefly naturally it does not allow you very sort of targeted communication at each of the cohorts and some of the cohorts are not even present on television print also might not allow you so how do you look at your overall media mix now it is a given that majority of the company's brands are now doing increasing spends on digital right like I mentioned at the start the group I'm report this month said this week rather said 48% of money that companies are spending is now going on digital what is your proportion of spends you're doing on digital if you can tell us that and what is the value you still see for legacy media TV and print yeah interesting that you asked that question now because in the morning itself I was having this conversation with my marketing head and you know in the context of a you know a more mass brand campaign that we are kind of contemplating and I was asking this question that you know should we go full you know digital in this and again I'm not a marketing expert the response I got from my marketing experts including some of the other partners was that you know for that kind of a program effort we must use the mass media TV also and I was told you guys know it better is that you know post COVID I mean the shift that has happened significantly towards the you know the digital platform the OTT and all of them there is you know kind of a bit of a reverse shift happening back to the mass media on TV etc so we must use that I was still asking them you know please help me understand why because you know that's not as efficient at least as I you know started feeling but I'm told that no that is still required so from whatever we are seeing now I mean the sense I'm getting in that if you are you know so all our regular marketing campaigns are more or less digital the regular stuff that we keep doing which are very very targeted which are very specific segment focus but where we are trying to now take the brand to a larger you know mass of and I would say more a larger congregate of you know several segments with some common messaging there I am getting a sense that we'll have to use the TV as a medium as well apart from a few other traditional medium that's the sense I'm getting a very interesting you mentioned that I'll just add a couple of points to that you know when I say the average spend in India is 48% on digital that also means that there are companies who are already doing more than 50% perhaps 60% on digital and I would imagine a category like yours especially in the BFI size space certainly is in the higher end and not on the lower end so you are certainly 50% plus and interestingly yesterday I read an article on you know HBR Howard Business Review which speaks about how many large corporations are kind of how having experimented significantly with digital are starting to not kind of wean away from digital but also bring money back into you know legacy media especially television digital has been experimented enough in the last three four years to understand you know the strengths understand the weaknesses but one thing I think remains true that you know a lot of companies continue to use television in sort of helicopter level you know push when you want to build your brand do a large campaign but as you rightly said when you're doing individual tactical campaigns digital holds this way thank you so much my uncle


A truck carrying a hundred monkeys crashed in rural Pennsylvania. Three of those monkeys escaped but were reportedly caught and strangely killed within about 24 hours. The insane thing is that these monkeys were brought into New York City from the African island nation of Mauritius and were apparently on their way to an unspecified CDC-approved quarantine facility. At least one person who was in contact with the primates got sick with whatever disease the monkeys had. Not sure why anyone would expect much from the CDC after the last few years, but at this point it seems like they're basically kicking off the plot to the 1995 movie Outbreak, starring Dustin Hoffman, Renee Russo, and Morgan Freeman. Definitely not what we need right now. Government competence at its finest.


God, Father, sustainer, and ultimate destination of all, we call upon you to be with us as we honor those who sacrifice for their families and friends and world peace. Your hearts are full as we contemplate the magnitude of their gift for us. Help us as a nation experience comfort and spiritual joy, for we know that you take special care of those who live and die with greatness. There is no greater love than this that a man lay down his life for his friends. We are spurred to action in response to their gift to us in the silence of our hearts. We whisper to them, we know what you've done for us. We love you for it. We shall strive to live up to your sacred trust, O God, hear our lament for their souls. Guard their deeds with your eternal love and rest, amen. Ladies and gentlemen, please be seated. The dignity and the honor of this ceremony and the nation's grief and pride are all embodied for us today by the presence and the participation for which we are profoundly grateful of our Commander-in-Chief, the President of the United States. My fellow Americans, Memorial Day is a day of ceremonies and speeches. Throughout America today we honor the dead of our wars. We recall their valor and their sacrifices. We remember they gave their lives so that others might live. We're also gathered here for a special event, the National Funeral for an Unknown Soldier who will today join the heroes of three other wars. When he spoke at a ceremony at Gettysburg in 1863, President Lincoln reminded us that through their deeds the dead had spoken more eloquently for themselves than any of the living ever could and that we're living could only honor them by rededicating ourselves to the cause for which they so willingly gave a last full measure of devotion. Well this is especially so today for in our minds and hearts is the memory of Vietnam and all that that conflict meant for those who sacrificed on the field of battle and for their loved ones who suffered here at home. Not long ago when a memorial was dedicated here in Washington to our Vietnam veterans, the events surrounding that dedication were a stirring reminder of America's resilience of how our nation could learn and grow and transcend the tragedies of the past. During the dedication ceremonies the rolls of those who died and are still missing were read for three days in a candlelight ceremony at the National Cathedral and the veterans of Vietnam who were never welcomed home with speeches and bands but who were never defeated in battle and were heroes as surely as any who have ever fought in a noble cause staged their own parade on Constitution Avenue. As America watched them, some in wheelchairs, all of them proud, there was a feeling that this nation, that as a nation we were coming together again and that we had at long last welcomed the boys home. A lot of healing went on said one combat veteran who helped organize support for the memorial and then there was this newspaper account that appeared after the ceremonies. I'd like to read it to you. Yesterday crowds returned to the memorial. Among them was Herbie Pettit, a machinist and former Marine from New Orleans. Last night he said, standing near the wall, I went out to dinner with some other ex-Marines. There was also a group of college students in the restaurant. We started talking to each other and before we left they stood up and cheered us. The whole week Pettit said, his eyes read, it was worth it, just for that. It has been worth it. We Americans have learned to listen to each other and to trust each other again. We've learned that government owes the people an explanation and needs their support for its actions at home and abroad. We have learned and I pray this time for good, the most valuable lesson of all, the preciousness of human freedom. It has been a lesson relearned not just by Americans but by all the people of the world. Yet while the experience of Vietnam has given us a stark lesson that ultimately must move the conscience of the world, we must remember that we cannot today as much as some might want to close this chapter in our history. For the war in Southeast Asia still haunts a small but brave group of Americans, the families of those still missing in the Vietnam conflict. They live day and night with uncertainty, with an emptiness with a void that we cannot fathom. Today, some sit among you. Their feelings are a mixture of pride and fear. They are proud of their sons or husbands, fathers or brothers, who bravely and nobly answer the call of their country. But some of them fear that this ceremony writes a final chapter, leaving those they love forgotten. Today, then, one way to honor those who served or may still be serving in Vietnam is to gather here and rededicate ourselves to securing the answers for the families of those missing in action. I ask the members of Congress, the leaders of veterans groups, and the citizens of an entire nation present or listening to give these families your help and your support, for they still sacrifice and suffer. Vietnam is not over for them. They cannot rest until they know the fate of those they loved and watched march off to serve their country. Our dedication to their cause must be strengthened with these events today. We write no last chapters. We close no books. We put away no final memories. An end to America's involvement in Vietnam cannot come before we have achieved the fullest possible accounting of those missing in action. This can only happen when their families know with certainty that this nation discharged her duty to those who served nobly and well. Today, a united people call upon Hanoi with one voice, heal the soreest wound of this conflict, return our sons to America, and the grief of those who are innocent and undeserving of any retribution. The unknown soldier who has returned to us today and whom we later rest is symbolic of all our missing sons, and we will present him with the Congressional Medal of Honor, the highest military decoration that we can bestow. Without him we may well wonder, as others have, as a child. Did he play on some street in a great American city, or did he work beside his father on a farm out in America's heartland? Did he marry? Did he have children? Did he look expectantly to return to a bride? We'll never know the answers to these questions about his life. We do know, though, why he died. He saw the horrors of war, but bravely faced them. Certain his own cause and his country's cause was a noble one, that he was fighting for human dignity, for free men everywhere. Today, we pause to embrace him and all who served us so well in a war whose end offered no parades, no flags, and so little thanks. We can be worthy of the values and ideals for which our sons sacrificed, worthy of their courage in the face of a fear that few of us will ever experience by honoring their commitment and devotion to duty and country. Many veterans of Vietnam still serve in the armed forces, work in our offices on our farms and in our factories. Most have kept their experiences private, but most have been strengthened by their call to duty.  Let us, if we must, debate the lessons learned at some other time. Today, we simply say with pride, thank you, dear son, may God cradle you in his loving arms. We present to you our nation's highest award, the Congressional Medal of Honor, for service above and beyond the call of duty, in action with the enemy during the Vietnam era. O Thou that dwell us in the convert of the Most High, and abidus in the shadow of the Almighty, I will say of the Lord who is my refuge in my fortress, my God in whom I trust, that he will deliver thee from the snare of the fowler and from the noise and pestilence. He will cover thee with his pinions and under his wings shall Thou take refuge. His truth is a shield and a buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flyeth by day, of the pestilence that walketh in darkness, nor of the destruction that wasted that noonday. A thousand may fall at thy side and ten thousand at thy right hand. It shall not come nigh thee, only with thine eyes shall Thou behold and see the recompense of the wicked. For Thou hast made the Lord who is my refuge, even the Most High thy habitation. There shall no evil before thee, neither shall any play come nigh unto thy tent, for he will give his angels charge over thee to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear upon thee their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against the stone. Thou shalt tread upon the lion and the asp. The young lion and the serpent shalt thou trample under feet. Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him. I will set him on high because he hath known my name. He shall call upon me and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will rescue him and bring him to honor. With long life will I satisfy him and make him behold my salvation.


Hey guys, Shiver 1,000 here, and monkey! Monkey! So we've got another episode of flea market finds. Only it wasn't a flea market, it was in the state sale. Stay tuned and we'll show you what we got. Escape the heat. It's a cool mist. Unique pump action produces ultra fine mist that cools area by up to 20 degrees. Perfect for sunbathing, hiking, golfing, ball games, and I thought that's ambitious, but my blind spot, you know, I got that blind spot. And various outdoor activities. Okay, let's see what the picture shows. So, there's a girl in the beginning having a mist. Oh, that's kind of cool. This is got a hose that comes up. Yeah. And I guess you pump it. But we are going to do a review on this together. Right. With two different cameras, so she can have one for her channel, one for my channel. So we got two of these, and both of them are $5. Yep, we gave five bucks a piece. I got this box of stuff here. I don't know if any of this works, but I gave 10 bucks for it. For everything. For everything. Now what caught my eye? See, this is an Xbox One. Or no, Xbox 360? Yeah. So that's an Xbox One, right? I have no idea. I've lost track on these games. I don't know if this was PlayStation, I can tell you. Yeah, it's an Xbox 360. Xbox 360. Okay. We got this thing. I'm still not sure what this is. Power, thermal, protect. It's got all this stuff in the back. Is that for cable? Like TV set? I don't know. So, I'll do some research on this. Yeah, interesting. But also what caught my eye, this was clear down the bottom. I saw JBL. I knew what makes, what JBL makes. We got this amp. Monkey didn't know what it was. I said, what it does is when you turn your steering on, it makes a good boom, boom, boom. So, I don't know what the wattage is or anything like that. Like I said, I'll have to research it. And we'll find out. I can hook this up with no problem and SIFT works. So, there's base boost, input level, rear front. So, I'm not, like I said, I'm not sure what the wattage is on it. But I figured, you know, just that power bank, their loans were 10 bucks for that game. Right. You know. So, I mean, I'm guessing maybe this, you know, I don't know this, this power bank here. Not sure what it's for. But it could be maybe for this thing. I don't know. I don't see anything. It's on the back. There's label. It's refurbished. Factory refurbished. Okay. I don't see anything for power. Is this an amp? I don't know. There's input. This is an amp. Is it an amp? Yeah. This is an amp. That's why there's no. Does it say an amp on the front? There's your ground. No, I don't know what this is. There's your ground. And your plus. So, this is where you're, see, this is REM's remote. So, what you do is you hook that up to, like your stereo that has a power antenna. You hook that wire into that. So, when you turn your stereo on, this kicks on. Oh, okay. Okay. And there's your ground. And there's your positive. So, this is an amp as well. Again, don't know what wattage it is. I'll have to look that stuff up. I don't even know if it works. We don't know if it works or anything like that. Like this. But I figured that just that power bank, Elaine, for an Xbox was worth 10 bucks. And we got another case that we're going to need. I was sitting in a garage. It was actually an estate sale, wasn't it? Yeah. Yeah. It was our parents that passed away. Right. Per parent. Yeah. And I got this Bolans, just a little 25cc weed eater. We don't know if it runs or anything, but I'm sure I can make it run. I pulled it. It's got compression. I gave $10 for that. Yeah. Now, what else do we have here? The last thing, the big doggy. It's a three way system, five and a half horsepower. You order machines by MTD, which is a cheaper version, but okay. This is a mulcher chopper, you know. So this is for your leaves. You can put your leaves in here and it shreds them up. You make your own mulch. This is where this is the shoot where you put your, your tree limbs down in and everything shoots out of here for mulching. But it has a slight issue. It's seized up. Now that could be, he said the carburetor's been rebuilt, but when I pulled the dipstick out, I smelled a little fuel. That's what's wearing me in to the oil. And a lot of times when these things flood out, they get fuel into the oil. So it could be a simple fix. It could be something jammed up inside there, or it could be the engine. I paid up a little bit for this. I gave 70 bucks for it. So hopefully it'll be an easy fix. So I can turn, you know, make another 70 bucks on it. And how much are they if they're new? I don't know what they are new, but if this was running, if you could pull this and start it, cleaned up and stuff, you'd get 350 bucks all day long for it, you know. They said it hadn't been used very much before the guy died. So I don't know if it just seized up from senting. If that's the case, we can just put, you know, some oil down in the carburetor or whatever, or not the carburetor down in the spark plug, let it set for a day or two. But hopefully we can, we'll take it apart. This will be the next video and we'll see, you know, we'll see what's going on with it. And then we'll go from there. So this will be the next video. So hopefully, you know, maybe something just got jammed in it. Who knows? Let's go ahead and raise a shoot up and see what's going on here real quick. So all this stuff is all selling items. So I did pay up, I gave 70 bucks for it. If Wars came to Wars, I can buy a brand new Predator engine, five and a half Wars for around 100 bucks, put a new engine on it, then it'll be worth a little more. So I'm not sure what the deal is with it. So anyway, that'll be the next video. So stay tuned for that. So we just wanted to share that with you. We just wanted to share that with you. Sorry. Checking out a dude on a motorcycle, Jesus. About the dude on the motorcycle. Excuse me, I'm standing right here.  It was probably because they had somebody rebuild the Corbader. Now, I'm not sure why I would say he left it set, you know, for a while with gas in it, and you just don't do that. Now they said the last time it ran, they did run the gas out of it, but now it seized up. So I don't know. So that'll be the next video. So there you go. So I'll put that under flea market fines, even though it was in the state sale. So hopefully I can get this going tonight and we can sell it pretty quick. You know, I will put that online too, like on craigslist or something. So yeah. All right. So there we go. There we go. Monkey says she's out for now. Y'all have a good day. All right. Bye guys. Shebert, myth man legend gone for now. Thanks for watching. Don't forget to comment, rate, subscribe, click the bell icon, keep you notified of more awesome videos like this one.
