The main cross cable between towers of a coastal suspension bridge is 60 centimeters in diameter and 90 meters long. Determine A, if the flow conditions are laminar, and B, the drag force on this cable. Well first of all, I didn't give us a velocity, so let's add that in. So if we had a 50 mile an hour average wind, what would the load be and is that flow going to be laminar around the cable or not? And for our purposes here, we are assuming that the wind is coming at the cable from the side and with that we can calculate a Reynolds number. Here the characteristic length is going to be the diameter. We are considering air and we don't know the conditions, so we could say 20 degrees Celsius and approximately one atmosphere, at which point we can jump into table A2. And for air at 20 degrees Celsius, a density of 1.2 kilograms per cubic meter and a kinematic viscosity of 1.5 times 10 to the negative fifth. So with a velocity of 50 miles an hour, a diameter of 60 centimeters and a kinematic viscosity of 1.5 times 10 to the negative fifth meter squared per second, we will have to convert some units to get this into a unitless proportion. So I'll start with one mile is 5,280 feet and then one meter is 3.2808 feet is 3600 seconds, miles cancels miles, seconds cancel seconds, hours cancels hours. I have centimeters and meters in the numerator and I have square meters and feet in the denominator. Feet cancels feet. So I need to throw in 100 centimeters per meter and then centimeters will cancel centimeters, meters squared will cancel meters and meters. Now with our handy-dandy calculator, if you would cooperate calculator, I would start by turning on awesome, thank you. 50 times 60 times 5 to 80 divided by 1.5 e to the negative fifth times 3.2808 times 3600 times 100. We have a Reynolds number of 89 excuse me, 894,091. Like every other time, we're going to compare our Reynolds number to the critical Reynolds number. The critical Reynolds number for internal flow was 2300, the critical Reynolds number we used for flat plate theory was 5e5, but this situation is neither a flat plate nor is it internal flow. So since we have a different situation, we have to look at some actual data. For that, let's go into the textbook, specifically section 7.6. In 7.6, we have some data corresponding to some actual flow conditions. Specifically on 7.16a, we have the coefficient of drag corresponding to Reynolds numbers for a couple of different types of shapes. This curve at the top is a smooth circular cylinder in cross flow, which is what I'm assuming my cable is. Now where on this blue line do you think we have laminar flow? Yeah, it's definitely this first curve. Right about here, we start the transition to turbulence, and right about here, we assume it is turbulent. So I would say anything greater than 2, maybe 3 times 10 to the 5th is going to be turbulent. Anything less than 10 to the 4th is definitely laminar. Anything between the two is transitioning from laminar to turbulent. Our Reynolds number was 8.9 times 10 to the 5th, which is going to be closer to 10 to the 6th, especially considering that this is a logarithmic scale. Therefore, I will confidently say this is turbulent flow. So in answer to part A, we can pretty confidently say this is not laminar. The question specifically asked if it was laminar, and if we had ended up in a situation where we had a Reynolds number in, say, this area here, even there we would still answer no, even though it isn't necessarily turbulent. It's definitely not laminar, or at least completely laminar anymore. Now on to part B. For part B, I want us to determine the drag force, which is going to be 1 half times the coefficient of drag times the density times the area times velocity squared. The coefficient of drag will come from this figure. Again, we're assuming smooth circular cylinder, and we're saying that the length is so much longer than the diameter that it is essentially an infinite relation. It's a very long relative to its diameter. I mean, if we wanted to, we could calculate that proportion 90 over 5, excuse me, 90 over 0.6. We have 150, and our two options here are a proportion of 5, or a proportion of infinity. We're going to say it's closer to infinity than it is to 5, which makes sense if you don't think about it too hard. So I'm going to say my coefficient of drag is maybe 0.2, 0.25. I mean, remember with logarithmic scales like this, we're going to jump about halfway for the first increment. So I'm going to say about 0.2. With that number of 0.2, I have the coefficient of drag, I looked up the density of air. We know the velocity is 50 miles per hour. The area we're going to use is the diameter times the length, because we're looking at the approximately rectangular shape. It's a beautiful rectangle. I know what you're thinking. And that is 60 centimeters tall and 90 centimeters long, excuse me, 90 meters long. So we're using 60 centimeters times 90 meters for the effective area for drag. So if we called the coefficient of drag about 0.2, and the density of air was 1.2 kilograms per cubic meter, and my area is 60 centimeters multiplied by 90 meters, and my velocity is 50 miles an hour squared. So I square the 50 square the miles square the hours. And I don't believe that, oh, I do have a unit. So we're looking for units of newtons. A newton is a kilogram meter per second squared. One mile is 5,280 feet square everything. There are 3.2808 feet in one meter square everything. And then one hour squared is 3,600 squared second squared. And then at this point, second squared cancels second squared, hour squared cancels hour squared, mile squared cancels mile squared, feet squared cancels feet squared, kilograms cancels kilograms, 100 centimeters is one meter centimeters, cancel centimeters. And then I have meters, meters squared, and meters canceling cubic meters and meters. And that leaves me with newtons.  And let's double check that that math looks like it actually carried over correctly, even though I kind of arbitrarily chose some random parentheses. So 3,237.56 newtons. Now how confident are we in that number? Well, keep in mind that we are reading a coefficient of drag off of a chart with a lot of wiggle room. If we had 0.3 instead of 0.2, that would increase this drag by 50%. And that's difficult to see. The demarcation between 0.2 and 0.3 is going to be pretty difficult on a chart like this. The best thing to do would be to get the actual experimental data and build the correlation ourselves. But this is what we have for the moment.


The necessity of slang and idioms in ESL studies. Language is an organism that changes as the people using it changes. No living language sounds as it did 1,000 years ago, nor does any use all the same words that were used within it 100 years ago. Just as it is a very different experience to live in a body than it is to study one, so is it powerful for students of a foreign language to be invited to live in a language rather than only learn about it. The endless auditory phenomena of English, such as the Hootan and Tootan interjections of Appalachian people or the booming discourse of an African-American preacher, cannot be understood by other peoples unless they are exposed to the context these phenomena were nurtured in. Students of English must, therefore, be given the opportunity to enjoy slang and idioms, context-heavy linguistic devices, if their intent to live within the language is to be fulfilled. Reasons to use slang in real-life situations. The adage content is king makes its rounds well in business and popular culture, but context is king with languages. This is true in any culture, moreover, it is unlikely that English, laden with more vocabulary than perhaps any other modern language, is anywhere near the most contextual of languages. Mandarin Chinese might rank highly, most words in Mandarin are composites of two or more Hanzo or characters, but each individual character carries several, if not a dozen of its own potential meanings. There is no way for two Mandarin speakers to exchange mutually intelligible ideas with each other, without using words and expressions, formed by the social linguistic context, they each grew up in. It is not being suggested that anyone wishing to use words correctly, must know their etymology. But no native Chinese-speaking student can grasp, what it means to hit the road, as easily as a child born in the United States, who likely heard the term first from her parents, continued to hear it in from her favorite television shows, and was left a powerful audio-visual memory of the idiom by the age of seven. The American child will find it impossible to ever forget the phrase, but the Chinese child will find it impossible to ever remember, and enjoy it unless she spends significant time in an English-speaking context. She must spend enough time in that context to discover which of the idioms she actually enjoys, not merely memorizes, she cannot speak personally in her second language with terms that do not carry her personality. English and Learners How wonderful are the moments when students of foreign language, express their sincerest thoughts and their target language for the first time. For any of us who have undergone this experience, it is as if we gather our person, lift up, and plop it back down into a whole new world. We connect our same internal selves with new external expressions. This natal moment and especially, the newness of life that comes forth of it, is the good that ESL teachers must pursue their students. Students neither young nor old will comprehend or anticipate the gravity of this achievement until it is in their tongues, so it is the burden of the teacher to strive towards it with intentionally every lesson. Not all travelers are as equally motivated to discover the oasis, but even the most driven will never see it if they do not have a guide. And there is no linguistic oasis without an informal, everyday language like slang and idioms. Methods to Learn It is true that no single method of learning these terms will suffice for every student, for each student will encounter the target language through differing mediums and differing relationships. But incorporating them into an English course does not require the disruption of the course's other contents, much of that content should, in fact, proceed any descriptions of or activities involving idioms. In the same way, that a great work of historical fiction seems a great bag of irrelevant facts, to a reader unfamiliar with the period of history it describes, so must students be prepared to use the basic rational components of a language competently, before they can wield its irrational, idiomatic, rather than literal, components with comfort. But once students have entered an advanced stage of their studies, they ought to be given the tools to speak with native English speakers in a way, that will make native speakers feel comfortable. Do you want to teach English abroad? Take a Tefl course. To acquire a language well, one must acquire an understanding of the people who speak the language from birth. ESL teachers will drill contractions and recite diphthongs, yes, but they should spend just as much time inviting students into the world they grew up in. Therefore, no ESL student should ever be without the opportunity to dive into the rich linguistic reservoir of English idioms and slang.


Hello everybody. I'm Stefan Wetted, DAV National Commander. As the situation reflect on Memorial Day and what it means to me, I cannot stop but think about my deployment to Iraq in 2006 and 2007, where we lost three soldiers on that deployment that were within my platoon. Soldiers such as Sergeant Kyle Miller, Sergeant First Class David Berry, and Staff Sergeant Robert Beecham. Those three soldiers gave the ultimate sacrifice. If it wasn't for soldiers like them, we would not be able to do the things we truly enjoy. So today, I'm dedicating Memorial Day for those three soldiers and their loved ones they left behind.


on Dodge City and in the territory on west there's just one way to handle the killers and the spoilers and that's with the U.S. Marshall and the smell of gun smoke. William Conrad, the story of the violence that moved west with young America and the story of a man who moved with it. I'm that man, Matt Dillon, the United States Marshall, the first man they looked for and the last they want to meet. It's a chancey job and it makes a man watchful and a little lonely. Let's dump them down good. I'm slightly bigger than these tin pills we got. Here let me give you a hand. Water. It doesn't seem like nobody has worked this thing for a long time. Bucket's still a long way down there. Wait a minute, hold it. Maybe I can hold it up by hand. Can you get it? Yeah, I can get it. That rope can hold a bucket or not. Nothing else again. That rope was crumb rotten. Yeah, well maybe up in the barn in the shed you can find something to haul water in. Sure, I just don't figure how he got his water. He sure didn't use it as well. He? Well, the fellow that lived here, there's the one Albie dragged out of the cabin. Well, where'd he take him? He's on there on them trees. You check the barn, Chester, I'll see to Albie. He's just a cinder. That's all I can think. He's just a cinder. A little blanket here. He ain't a man at all. He's a cinder. On the cabin? I couldn't believe it. He was sitting at the table.  And then I seen he was on fire. He was just sitting there on fire. And I got to him and he toppled off right under the floor and he laid there burning. He doesn't know at all. I seen trees burn. I seen fields. I seen logs. I never seen a man burn. Let's forget about it. You know, it's funny. A man on fire. First thing you do is put a blanket on him. He's burning hot. So you smother him.  That's the way to look at it. You put a blanket on his hinder. You put a blanket around his cinder. Were you talking to me, Marshall? A blanket. It was in the cabin? A blanket. It was on the floor, right by the table. Now, it's wet. It felt wet when I grabbed it. It's a funny smell, isn't it, Marshall? Yeah. Whiskey and kerosene together make a funny smell, Albie. Is that what that is? That's what it smells like. Mr. Dillon, can you come back here? Yeah, right away, Chester. You rest yourself, Albie. You've done more in your share. Oh, I'm all right, Marshall. Where'd you find them, Chester? Look at me looking. All thin fleshed. Somebody neglected them for a long time. They're about starved. Any feet in the barn? Ain't nothing in that barn, but rusty cans and a broke plow. Everything in there is crumbling. It's at the raft. There's grass down by the creek. We'll lead them down there. It don't seem like this was Indians. It doesn't, Mr. Dillon. It looks queer, Chester. We've done what we could, Mr. Dillon. You hadn't been riding by and come to Fetcher's. We couldn't have done this much, Albie. I couldn't do enough alone. Funny, in a way. It seemed too far from Dodge, but, you know, I didn't pass one settler on the way in. He doesn't see anybody around here, you know? Not a soul. It's just odd. That's what is odd. Odd is can be. Well, you've got to figure he was alone. Except for them two starving horses. I don't know his name. Can't mark his grave. Can't help wondering about him. What's a man like that lives alone? What's his place called a rust and rubble? That horses starve. And that well? I don't know when that's been used. I don't think he drank water, Chester. You mean that smell of whiskey on the blanket, Mark? Might be he drank himself into a stupor and knocked the whiskey over along with it a kerosene lamp. And it started fire that it burned him out of there. Yeah, that must have been the case. Well, if he was all alone, maybe it doesn't matter what we know. Well, for the love of... What? Listen, look. Coming out from the creek bed, you know? Maybe he wasn't alone after all. Well, that's just a child. She can't be more than nine or ten. I'm afraid I know the judge. I'm Marshall Dullin from Dodge City. Who are you? Charity. How's that? Charity, Charity Gill, that's my name. It was a big fire, wasn't it? Yeah, it was. You live here? Where have you been, Charity? Up the creek. I play up there, stay up there all I can. I like it up there. You knew about the fire, Charity? I tried to make him move. But he was too big, I couldn't move him. I tried. See, I burned my dress. He was your father? You know, he married Mama and me when I was little. She said I was to call him Daddy, and I did, but... I didn't like him. Where is your mama, Charity? Oh, she's dead. She died when I was seven. I'm almost ten now. She's dead, ain't she? I didn't like him. I don't know. It'd be hard to think when I chest her. I'd say you're a pretty healthy young lady. I've never been to a doctor before. Yeah, never had. Well, you take it to me. You stay away from her. You can't, Charity. You're funny. Well, some folks think so. Now then, I guess you can... slip into your dress yourself. Yeah, I always do. I'll be waiting for you in the other room when you're ready. I won't be long. What about her, Doc? Oh, she's fine. She could use some more meat on her bones, but there's nothing really wrong with her. The way her dress was burned, I thought maybe the fire got to her, too. Well, it's not a sign of a burn. You know something? She seems a lot older than ten, doesn't she? I don't know anything about kids, Doc. Well, I don't mean she is older than that. She just seems older than a year. I guess she's seen a lot. You talked to her much about fire? She said she tried to move her stepfather. Couldn't. She didn't like him. She keeps saying that. I'm hungry, Mr. Diller. Yeah, well, we'll fix that pretty quick now. Matt, get Chester to eat with it. He sets a mighty good example. It does affect him. Charity. You tell us about the fire. What about it? Oh, how it started, for instance. Well, it's almost happened lots of times. Mama used to tell him that it happened sometimes she wasn't careful. She'd drink out of that jug, and then he'd fall her free. But if the lamp was neary, he'd knock it over. What happened this morning? I guess so. I went down to the creek to get my breakfast. He didn't like me. He didn't like me. He didn't like me. I went to get my breakfast. He didn't talk to me ever, so I didn't talk to him. He was just sitting there with the jug. Your breakfast, Charity? Yeah, the berries are nice done, by the way.  He wanted to know about the fire. That's right, we do. When I came back from breakfast, the lamp was on the floor and everything was burning. I tried to make him move, but he was too big. And when my dress started to burn, I ran away. Just you and your stepfather. That's all that lived there, huh? Mm-hmm. And Coley and Sue. Coley and Sue? Yeah, the horses, Doc. We brought them into Mars. Marshal? Yeah, Charity. Will I live with you now? No. We'll find a place for you, but... Do you like me? Well, sure.  Is something, Doc? Huh? No, no, no. Come on, Doc. Help me make her understand now, would you? You wouldn't let me be alone, would you? No. She's settled with Moss Mawley for the night. She's a woman who runs a boarding house. What's a boarding house? Home to sleep in and your meals. Can I eat with you? I have a lot of questions, Charity. Well, that's how you learn asking questions. What was she? She had a little girl like me. Like Moss Mawley? She had a little girl? Well, I think she used to be, yeah, but... Well... Don't, honey, but I just don't figure I'm the one to make you understand. Now, come on. You're young and a girl. You talk right up to her, don't you, Marshal? There's more around, Rob. Can't start that soon. I was asking after Maw. Where is she inside? No, she is not. Then where is she, Rob? Medlin. That's where she is, thinking and talking free with a whole sewing circle of half-wit women who should have been buggy with a long time ago. Is he mean, Marshal? Yeah, he's mean as a butterfly. Ain't no mean about it. Just sitting down the back, stating the case, you might say. Now, if someone had put Maw and him, others in their place, when they were this young in their age, we'd have had a warm supper this evening, and a few of the comforts us men both would be tied up. Rob, you're going to run down pretty soon and tell me where Maw is. Clean all the way to Wichita. Wichita? Left on the morning's hand to feed, because you please her and the dorsi girls, boss Grimmick's wife, Fanny Dory. Hold up a minute, will you? You're calling off every woman and Dodge. They can't all be at Wichita. Well, you're the Marshal. Make yourself a house-to-house search. What's going on? Suffering. Rob, you talk straight to me now. That's what they call it, suffering. They all met for it. Women from all over the state, Gordon and Maw, pouring into Wichita on every single one of them got suffering on their minds. Suffering? You mean suffering? Oh, it's one of the same thing. It's that sneaky way women folks have it talking. Why don't they just come out and plain and say that they want the vote? Oh, they got to call it, suffrage. Suffrage. Well, you let them vote a while and see if the country ain't suffering. I'm also sleepy, Marshal. Yeah, me too, Charity. Curious man. You're the only woman in town, Kitty. It's only natural that you'd want to take care of her. I know. In a saloon, there's nothing natural about that. He can sleep in your room, can't she? My room, the long branch. Any of this. I should know it isn't. You think one of my jail cells is better, maybe? Well, it's no worse. Honestly, Matt, I know this is a problem, but I don't think I'm the solution. There must be someplace in town or even out of town, some family. We rode out to Albie Stevens. He's got eight kids. Yeah, they're stacked up out there, and they're all boys. What about Mrs. Stevens? She gone to Wichita with Maw Smalley and the rest of them. Eight kids and she wants to vote too? Well, Albie says she went for the outing. I guess she can't blame her for wanting to get away. Hello. Oh, hello, honey. Did you get the drink you wanted? Well, the man said he didn't have any milk, so I had some water. Yeah, I have milk, Matt. Well, yeah, but... Why don't they keep a cow at Delmonico? Oh, yeah, I guess they do. Well, go and get it, son. Caddy will be all right here for the water.  You're not going to leave?  I like him. Yeah, I like him too. You're pretty. Do you think so, honey? And you smell pretty too. Only... Only what? You got your face painted. Mommy used to tell me only Indians painted their faces. Maybe your mother was pretty enough without using powders and things. Oh, she was pretty. Freckles. She had freckles. Oh! Wow, that proves it. I don't have any freckles. This is a funny play, friend. Kind of funny, yeah. Listen, I don't understand grown-ups, Miss Kitty. Outside, there's alfalfa and sweet clover to smell. You quick water to drink and currants and wild gooseberries and sheep's shower to eat. But grown-ups are always crowding together. And now they're smoking, drinking whiskey and talking loud. What is that? I don't know, Charity. I just know they do. And if they didn't, I'd be out of business. I just don't see the need of this at all. I've never been in jail before in my life. Stop acting like an old woman, Chester. You're not in jail now, really.   Well, they took him off the hay city to hang. You listen to me, Chester. It's been a long day. I had about all the joy and I can handle. Charity's going to sleep in your bed. I'm going to sit up in mine and you're going to sleep on that cup there and that's the end of it.  Yes, sir, I understand. But I don't see why I've got to be locked up. You're not locked up, Chester. You closed the door. All right, all right, all right there. A sight better. Good night, Chester. Good night, Mr. John. Yes, I guess Charity's asleep but not all right. She probably was before we started this ruckus, yeah.  Whatever is going to come of her, Mr. John. Anyone who wants kids that hasn't got them anything like this before. Keep on going on you. That is long like a little stray. Too bad you can't keep her.  Well, now I can see it ain't the most practical thing in the world. Chances are you'd feel a lot better having a little boy but all the pain. Chester. Yes, sir. I'd feel a lot better having nothing at all. No boy, no girl. Well, yes, I suppose so. You're more used to that. Good night, Chester. Good night, John. I never can sleep when I'm thinking. I guess the secret's to quit thinking then, huh? I'm worried about you, Marshal Dylan. Worried? You don't know what to do about me, do you? I guess you're tired of me, too. I'm not tired of you, Charity. I know what to do with you. You don't want me to live with you, do you? Honey, you can't very well. You've seen how I live here. It is not the right place for a little girl. You ought to have a real home, Charity, with folks close to you who see that you care for, who will love you. Mm-hmm. Like my Aunt Annie? Annie? Oh, maybe I hadn't told you about Aunt Annie. Maybe you haven't. At first I thought it'd be nice to live with you. But mostly you and I just walk around. I get tired. Charity, where does Aunt Annie live? Just on Yonder, somewhere I used to live before it's fire. Maybe five miles not far. Marshal Dylan? Better now. How's it with Frito's corn chips? Munch, munch, munchy, munchy, frito.   But Frito's corn chips are one snack you can eat for both reasons. Recorded in Hollywood by Norman McDonald, stars William Conrad as Matt Dillon, U.S. Marshal.

Hello everybody hooded Cobra Commander 788 here. We are back with more Cobra Convergence 7 and this time we have Ryan from the Island of Misfit Toys. So Ryan please introduce yourself and tell everybody what you do and where to find you. I'm Drednack Ryan. I am the Island of Misfit Toy Collectors. You can find us on YouTube. I also am one of the co-hosts of a Toy Kind of Mood. We review GI Joe classified figures, some modern figures, and also O-ring from time to time. Just absolutely a huge Joe fan. I want to thank this gentleman right here. He was actually one of the folks that got me back into GI Joe to make it cool to collect toys once again. So thank you hooded Coco. Well thank you and thank you for being here and you're back for Cobra Convergence. As you said you are one of the co-hosts for Toy Kind of Mood. So in that capacity this is a return isn't it for you for Cobra Convergence. So for those who missed it talk about your previous experiences with Cobra Convergence kind of how you got involved and what that was all about. So I found your YouTube channel I'm going to say right around 2009. So you're doing the reviews doing some of your live streams I'm like this is really cool. And then when you put out the first Cobra Convergence I'm like this is really awesome because you a lot of YouTubers back then will just say didn't open up their subscriber base or their fans to other YouTube channels where Cobra Convergence brought in a whole bunch of different channels that folks didn't know for BX257 I mean you had Joe Berg just a number of different Joe channels. So I have been a follower of Cobra Convergence since day one and have been absolutely in love with it and having the chance to do Toy Kind of Mood and then my own this year it's like you know it's the dream that came true so really exciting though. That is awesome and you mentioned some some great channels that I've been privileged to work with and I'm glad I'm glad that you enjoy it I hope everybody else enjoys it too. Form BX257 and Timmer from Half the Battle the three of us kind of we were at the start and I think all of us have been very pleased with how it's grown and I'm thrilled to have you in now for a second year so that's really awesome. So for those who are unaware we are recording this of course before Cobra Convergence starts so so you will see this on the day that Ryan's presentation for Cobra Convergence goes up but we're recording this well early. Do you have some thoughts feelings or ideas on what you might do for Cobra Convergence this year? Well since this is recording early I do need to kind of you know preface this I've already started recording and and and what I'm going to do for Cobra Convergence is Zartan is my favorite G.I. Joe character he's been tied to Cobra of course he's tied to the Dreadnoughts so I'm going to go through the evolution of Zartan from the obering figure to modern and then into classified and then of course you know I'll you know create my ode of love to Zartan and why I think he's you know the best figure that's ever been made by Hasbro so. Oh that'll be awesome Zartan you might say is a fan favorite so that there that as a deep well that you can draw from that's really cool and you you go sometimes by Dreadnought Ryan so what what's your what's your fascination with the Dreadnoughts? You know when I saw the commercial for Zartan and of course the color change feature was like as a kid you're just like this is the most amazing thing ever and I remember when we went to a Kresge which is was a subsidiary of Kmart way back in the day and he was on the shelf and he came with a swamp skier and then you read the file card and Larry developed so much depth for a lot of these characters and as a kid you weren't talked down to back then so if you didn't understand a word you had to go look it up so we had to get the dictionary out and you had to actually find out what all of them were I think for a lot of kids if you ever felt like an outcast or you're not part of the crowd I think that's another reason why Zartan kind of always you know was was the bigger I was attracted to I was an only child I lived on a big four lane highway so I didn't have neighborhood kids to play with so you know it just he just sang to me and then of course when the rest of the dreadnights came out the next year it's like these are awesome and then Zorana and Zandar and I was hooked from there the thunder machine was like okay I'm done well you touched on what my next question was going to be I was wanting to ask you about your experience with G.I. Joe as a kid what was that like you say you didn't have a lot of neighborhood kids to play with or anything like that so how did you how did you get into it and kind of how what was your play experience like with G.I. Joe back then so for me you know I was born 76 so by 82 I was in that perfect range and I had a lot of family and friends of my parents who either served in you know World War two or were in Vietnam so those folks always met something to me so when 82 when they came out you saw the commercials for them and they were those you know cartoon mix with here's a comic book you know Joe was like the first comic book ever had and then they came out with the Sunbow series so you had two parallel running story lines that you could flip back and forth from but as a kid you know I'd get done the school I'd ride the bus home and I'd have to walk home my dad worked third so he was sleeping so I had that time frame from when I got out of school to when my mom would get home where I would play with my toys or watch TV and G.I. Joe was always the first toy line that I went to you know you'd you'd play with your house plants and you put your Joe's in there you know the best play spot was behind the couch because it was a cave or you know and I had the house all to myself so it was just fun and that's that play pattern always just kind of kept building from there and every time I we could go to the store and I could get a Joe or you know for your birthdays and for holidays you get you know a vehicle it was just awesome I think for 82 83 I got the dragonfly and then the next year I got the sky striker and it was just like downhill from there that's I mean that's fantastic and G.I. Joe was an introduction to comic books in general for a lot of people me included but I think a lot of us also had a period where we kind of got away from toys and and what we considered kid stuff but then as adults we came back into it what was it like coming back into it which brings you to where you are now gosh it was probably 2008 we were shopping in a Kmart and my wife's like you know take Dylan over to it's our son you know let him go look at toys and I go down the aisle and it was the modern version of G.I. Joe but they had that throwback to the card back of our generation and just seeing those on the pegs again it was it took me back to being seven years old and I was just like oh my god it's G.I. Joe and then I'm using the excuse of yeah well my son's only three but he'll play with these in a couple years we can pick up a few and and then you know you go on to YouTube and I find your channel I find Kevin's for FormBX257 and you guys are going through these great reviews and it's just bringing everything back and then Joe Berg's like it's okay to play with toys and that you know the feeling you get that you know I would see your your K-faving that you're a toy collector back in the day because you didn't want people to know because it was embarrassing that kind of went away and then I started going and buying figures and you know it made me feel good again happy magical whatever you want to say and then I discovered that's why kids are so much happier than adults because they use their imagination and they play with these objects and it makes them happy and they don't care what anybody thinks so that you know a lot of you guys I blame for for hooking me back on this this drug we call plastic crack yeah I think I think Joe Berg should share some of the blame for that those guys are great I love Joe Berg so but now you are creating content all about toys how did you kind of get into that what inspired you to actually appear on the internet with you with your face just as you are now so a buddy of mine Chris he had his own YouTube channel and we're like you know he's like hey let's let's create an island of misfit toy collectors where we can just talk about the stuff that we like and so Robo Skull had come out it for the you know the pre-order for the Kickstarter and I think that was that was the first show that we did and it was just like you know hey let's just go have fun I don't care how many people we get to view I don't care how many people subscribe to it it's just we're gonna talk about the stuff that we like to it and a lot of shows you'll see or even in social media there's there's a lot of negativity out in the community right now so I didn't want my channel or our channel to be negative so we try to bring more of the positives and try to remember what is so great about this community and toys in general so that's how it started and then it's just kind of grown from there I mean I've met you know Zazel from Sergeant Slaughter's you know Slaughterhouse Ken from Toy Connection and you know just built out more and more friends from here I got to be on a show with you know Sergeant Slaughter I got to meet Ron Rudette, Mark Pennington you know things that I never thought could happen because of YouTube so it's it's been just awesome that is fantastic I'm really thrilled for you I'm really thrilled that you are here you mentioned Robo Skull what kind of what what what non GI Joe things are you into and that inspire you you know mostly it's been GI Joe but the Indiana Jones figures they've just come out I I was always a slap slap you for Indiana Jones I just thought it was a great movie I number two Temple of Dooms not my favorite but you know one and three and then four it's okay but I just loved Harrison Ford in those movies I loved Harrison Ford and Star Wars too so but you know I picked up those figures and I'm picking and choosing on those Robo Skull it's when I found out about the original Roller Skull from Palo Alto as an adult and I saw what Action Force had is when we were kids I'm like you know there's this stuff's way better than what the Joe stuff we had and I thought that was great and then you meet Ben you meet Mark you know Chris McLeod was involved with it and then you see this giant flying death skull and I'm like I've got to have that and they brought so many people from the community together you had marauders you had you know grindstone toys and it's just a super positive you know project that they're building and they they're only ones that figured out hey we can put O-ring we can put modern forage and we can put six inch into a vehicle and I didn't hear any collectors whining or crying about it because they were all into it so that positivity just keeps help building and now I just can't wait to get my two skulls and I can put them up in my display and take a whole bunch of pictures and do some videos on them and you know go in the backyard and play and put them in the car seats and drive them around town so I have seen it at shows at conventions it is sizable it is it's pretty special and and and you mentioned I guess for a lot of North American Joe fans may not be aware of what Action Force had in the UK they had some of the same stuff some of the same stuff but they had some of their own stuff and yeah check that out you Joe fans if you're not turned on to UK Action Force especially the early stuff there's there are some surprises there and Robo Skull is one of those surprises absolutely the the APC for Z Force I mean oh yeah the decisions that that you know Bill or Bill Brickett added on to that it's like that's just perfect we can we get that here in the States you know they turned you know the Minesweeper oh I can't trip wire into a pilot for the Fang and you're like that makes so much more sense yeah so yeah but yeah the great toys I mean it just shows you how GI Joe was more than just the US it was it was worldwide absolutely yeah it was and that's something that hopefully people are being having their eyes open to is that even though for at least where I live it was called a real American hero it was everywhere everywhere anywhere in the free world where a kid could get a plastic toy it was probably there so even though somebody may live on the other side of the world they may have play experiences as a kid just like that yes absolutely so Phil from Treasures for Triggers sent this to me and this is actually a Japanese GI Joe puller battleware so I had to go and find a vintage snow job to put on it so this is one of my most cherished pieces in my collection because a friend thought hey I'm going to send this to you because you know I sent him a couple classified figures but you know that's what makes GI Joe GI Joe is it's your buddies your community looking out for one another when somebody's down you pick them up you don't kick them you know that's what this community has been about for so many years and I want to see that it continues that way I hope so as well I hope so as well so you are you're collecting classified and other things right now what what are the what currently like what right now is hot in your in your collection pickups um I just recently got the retro carded storm shadow and Zartan oh yeah no I haven't seen those oh nice so now here's the other thing I collect gridiron so if you don't know the gridiron is they are a third party company Mark Bakun and his sons but they create the accessories that can go with your GI Joe figures and you know they have this loadout kit which is the classic storm shadow loadout kit so um I have my ultimate storm shadow this is a brighter white than what the classified line release was he has his hand without the gloves it also comes with you know the hand with the throwing star plus grip hands too um but you know just an amazing figure the Zartan knocking over everything is a great callback to uh the cartoon version so you get the blues the the reds he has the the bright green eyes which I think are just amazing um so you know I'm happy with both of these retro card figures I hope we get some more throwback types for those for the classified line but I think Lenny and and crew have done an amazing job in updating and still staying true to what we had for a real American hero me too me too I um it wasn't that long ago when we had no GI Joe at retail whatsoever and now we've got all of this it's it's really thrilling I'm really happy to see what's going on so the the question I ask everybody but I think you may have already answered it is who is your favorite Cobra and why is it Zartan so again with Zartan I think I just reading that file card and then understanding the loner aspect but also having like the different personalities he had the depth instead of just the you know I'm a bad guy you understood why he was bad you understood the pain that he went through and you could sympathize with him and you could see that you know he was bad but you know oh he's still there's still a little bit of good in him and then Larry writing the comic books with him and just some of the stories that he expanded on when you know he he killed you know the snake eyes master and and you found out why he did it and then you know even with some of the other comics that he's come out with it's just like that character is the closest thing I think to you know like the vigilante batman but you know um but my favorite Joe character I think we share this in common is stalker yeah I remember getting comic book number one or as a comic book store near my grandparents house and he had it and I picked up I think one three and like four um but stalker I found out he's from Detroit which is you know Detroit Michigan I'm from Michigan of course he comes my favorite but then you start reading his back story you read his file card and you see you know where he came from and again I could relate to a lot of that stuff from him and plus you know let's be honest Duke is a great leader but in those early comic days stalker was the leader absolutely and he was the one that held everything together and then when Larry wrote the you know the comic with stalker snake eyes and storm shadow all together in Vietnam it's like oh this is just gold yeah so yeah um out of curiosity do you remember uh who was your first uh G. I. Joe action figure that you got torpedo torpedo okay cool huge fan of Jack Cousteau and Omaha Mitchell of Omaha's you know where they would do the animal shows back in the day when grandpa and I would watch that underwater was always big for me so I got torpedo that figure was just absolutely amazing uh for for those who weren't around uh in 83 when that line came out um when you when you can actually get G. I. Joe's that weren't all green uh it was like a revelation you had guys in white you had guys in tan you had you had torpedo in the black and gray um it was like uh the first wave of G. I. Joe was awesome um but that second wave just was amazing so torpedo that that is awesome that is awesome um so a reminder to everyone Cobra Convergence 7 uh this is Ryan there will be a link to his channel uh in the description of this video so make sure you check him out um he's already given us a hint at what he's doing for Cobra Convergence 7 and by the time you see this it should be up so go check it out immediately after this go check it out subscribe to his channel um so uh but you you've been uh involved in a toy kind of mood for a bit talk about that relationship and how that's been going so those are those are my brothers from another mother uh you know K.

We've waited here long enough, it's time, it's time to get back focused and get back on task, J-O-N.  You get what I'm saying? But now it's like a black mall.  You feel what I'm saying? It's a food court. It's massage therapist in there. There's a little place that sells knick knacks.  It's like, but everything in there black. It's niggas in there. They ain't doing nothing. Just niggas walking around. It's a shoe store in that big corn dog spot. Cory got a little popcorn stand in the middle of the mall. Come on, man. Nicholas and them got a little spot in there. Everybody who been on the black market got a little spot.  Got to get the frames. Frames. We've had entrepreneurs here. We've had authors and artists. We've had people in the fashion industry. We had people on here with a dollar and a dream. But today, I feel like we get to have one of our own on the black market.   Before there was any of these things, just the real one out here trying to make it. So before I even get into the intro, just look at the camera and tell them. Tell them who you is, young man. Hey, man. I'm T. Hagan. They call me.net. CEO founder, creator of B. Godi, LLC, man. Being the goat is debatable. Being Godi is undeniable. Greatest of all time. You, man. Simple as that, man. What else? What else I got to say? Everyone wants to be Godi. Everything, every brand. So just be Godi, man. None other than.net. Thank you.  Right.   Everybody know I love her. I love a jogging suit or you know what I mean, a setup like that. And I had on the green joint and I was in St. Louis and I was dropping off the rental car in the overhead who was driving the bus. He's like, man, well, where I can get it? Man, he had to have it, man. Man, I need one of them.  I didn't gave him your Instagram and everything. So if you sent something to St. Louis, it was probably him. That's love. That's love. Man, so tell us how this all came about. Man, Godie the brand it all came about. It was, it was, I'm a writer first. That's the first thing I am first. I'm a writer and I started, I figured to get in the game, I'll get my own cameras and start shooting my own stuff. So I'm shooting and just one night I'm editing. I'm editing. It's late. I've been on 24 hours already. Trying to meet a dead line. Editors know how it go. It was four o'clock, bro. I was finna go to bed. And I've been having to use that four, three o'clock, four o'clock hour, bro. It's so tight. You ain't even be tying them on. It's like it's not over. And something just hit me, bro. It's the greatest of all, greatest of all time you, bro. Like that, like a commercial. I'm like, what? I'm like, but before I had been saying Godie, since like LeBron won the championship in Cleveland, I was like, all right, LeBron ain't the goat, but he goat like he Godie, you know what I'm saying? So I had been playing, just saying it. And like I said, 2020, that's when it came in my head. October 6th, bro, I got the birthday down. It came in my head. I'm like, oh, I need two, three. But yeah, it came to me, bro. And Google it right there. Because I'm like, no, I ain't no way nobody never put a while in the end. You know what I'm saying? And this is the greatest of all time. She was nowhere, bro. I went on Instagram. I hashtagged it. I went on Instagram. Google, of course, they went nowhere. Websites, all that was open. I'm like, but right then, thankfully, me and the missus just paid up the credit card, bro. So I had some, I had something I could trademark it right then. You know what I'm saying? Because I was like, no, this is the one. And before I even trademarked it, what happened was when I made it, I'm gonna put it on the shirt, my bad. I'm about to put it on the shirt for myself. And I typed it in and put it on the shirt. And this was like the third font that came up. It was a regular, then another one in this. I was like, bro, that looked like something, you know what I'm saying? And that's what made me go ahead and I did the logo in like five minutes. And I was like, all right, this is something. And made my first shirt. Like I said, trademarked it that night. Made me a shirt. I made the first shirt. What was what's the thing where not drop shipping, but a printful? Yeah, I made the first shirt on printful. I just like, I don't know how to do no clothes and nothing, but I need to have this. I made the first shirt on printful. They sent it to me. And actually the first person who got the shirt, you got Tyler Chronicles. Yeah. Fluke. Yep. I took it. I took it to them, took it on the show, more than culture. I was filming for it. I still film for it. And him and writing went crazy. Like, bro, now I need that, bro. That's that's in the band going and being in the same response since, you know what I'm saying? Once people hear the meaning of it and you see the logo, it's cool logo, you know what I'm saying? You see the quality. It's great. You got to stop spoiling me though, because I'm now I'm in the habit of anytime I see you out with some product, I feel like I'm supposed to walk away or something. And you know that I'm, because I'm like, I'm like, bro, I gotta hurry up and get, because I gotta have them shorts right now. I got you. I saved them down. He's the lad.  I'm gonna drop some more. This, uh, this summer too though, man, what you going with though? What's the new flavor? Um, man, I'm trying to figure out, see, I like this. This is called Sherpa. Sherpa. So I like food with this. I done put this. I'm gonna be putting this on different stuff. You know what?  When it's insulated. Yeah. I'm talking about, I had a show in Buffalo and I got a polo that's, uh, just like that. I'm gonna walk through that motherfucking sweat and I'm like, this shit's so hot. So that wasn't, and that's why I was like, made the shorts and I ain't making short. Like, that was going on. It's for the knees, in type of fellas, you know what I'm saying? I already know Big Gip wants some. Yeah. Yeah. He definitely wants some. I was mad. I ran into Sleepy and I had none on me. You know, he's definitely. Yeah. So that's what's really inspired. Right. You know what I'm saying? What video is that?  They don't dance them up. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. So now I'm thinking about it. I ain't thinking about it then. Yeah. Three stacks. Remember they went on tour. He had the blind wig with the motherfucking big boots in the, in the fuzz of short. With snow boots. Yeah. Dog on. Bummer with three stacks. But when Gip was on here, he said him and Drake, they used to just go out to like thrift stores and just look, knickknack shops and just see how far they can really like, you know, take the style and there was just like, you know, friendly competition challenges and each other. How flag can you get? You know what I'm saying? That's how the NBA is now. They be walking through. Yeah. They be, yeah, they be, they be, they be wild. And that's my thing. Like, I ain't, I'm not, wasn't in a fashion like that. But you know, we do shoes and a hat.  Exactly, bro. Like, like, so when, so now that I'm, but I am creative. So I'm gonna be making, making up stuff. My, my clothes gonna be like trinkets. You know what I'm saying? I plan on putting just different stuff, man, different pockets instead of a hoodie pocket right here. What about the pockets right here? Cause we, you wear a hoodie, you end up dragging hang stretching it out. You know what I'm saying? So I'll put a pocket right here. You put the key in your phone, you know, creative stuff like that. Yeah. And, um, yeah, it's up. So look, where can they go see all the products laid out in full and all of that? Visit bgodi.com, www.bgodi.com. Also on Instagram is bgodi underscore ATL. You got stuff for women, kids, everybody in the family. You can put, and you, big boy, yeah. What you need, like everybody, man, like you can put it on anything too. Like that's the thing.

So, like, that's, that's, that's what I'm on, man. It's inspirational. I just, today, dog, I just, started the process of the non-proper organization. And it's a goal. It's greatest of all time, you. And I like it. Yeah. It's simply that, man. So we're gonna, we're gonna be going around talking to the kids, not kids. I want to talk to, like, 12 graders. I basically want to do what they are doing for these adults with these motivational conferences. It's gonna be called GodiCon. Basically what they do with these conferences, but to, like, 12 graders who tend to go in the world. Like, folks ain't tell us about speaking stuff into existence and manifesting and believing in yourself. And you know what I'm saying? They ain't telling that they told us go to school or get a job at the factory in the city. You know what I'm saying? So I kind of want to be that person for the youth. Like, people telling these grown folks how they need to change their life and do this. Like, well, we finna do it for the people who, the future, who won't be running the world. So, so that, that just came about too, man. I can't wait. And it crazy how everybody want to help the kids. There'll nobody want to help the adults. Yeah. Once you blow that opportunity as a kid, it's over. It's over. Ain't no support groups for grown men on Thursday nights. Man, what y'all doing? Man, we just gonna sit around, have some wine. No. No. Nobody's ever gonna invest in that program.  Absolutely not. That's what titty bars are for my boy. What do you think? Not in the bar? You shot out. Yeah, but wouldn't nobody ever sponsor us doing that? Nobody's gonna put some money to the side and be like, you know, for all the men out here struggling to date these hot girls, man, we, the bus gonna be at Publix at eight o'clock. We're going to Magic Blue Flame and hitting the strip, going on the strip club run. All expenses paid for anybody who want to be there. You don't have to bring nothing but yourself. One's will be provided and all the liquor and buds you could smoke. I might have to, that might be how I get back to the city, bro. That might, because you say you don't like it. Just find me a black transportation company, give me a party bus, put a little money in just sad, just let all my niggas just come in there and you know, just, like, especially like niggas who didn't want the court that week and beat the charges. Now all your money tied up in your freedom. You need to be celebrated too. You deserve it too. You out here being golden. Yeah. Because the ship could have went the other way. Could have went south.  Because me and my niggas got to give them that nipping to be out here. This subway bus like a sharper old y'all. Come on, man.  Because she gonna want to lay on your lap.
