Escape! You are groping in the dark of the African jungle night, trapped on a wharf of a crocodile infested river, fighting for your life against a ruthless giant from whom you must escape. Escape! Designed to free you from the four walls of today for a half hour of high adventure. Tonight we escape to the dank jungles of the Seguanga Valley in Africa into the heart of a courageous man. As Robert Simpson told it in his story, John Jock Todd. No doubt you may presume my Scotch answers away from a wee bit of the old speech that still clings to my voice. Though it's been some years now since I last walked in the Heather of the Helens of Abergorie. My name is John Todd, the same as my father's, though to be sure he's more often called Jock Todd. Jock being the fighter's equivalent to John, and a name which in no ways applies to me. I am a peach-loving man, not a fighter, and no man can deny it, even today. However, in other respects, I was a raw lad for certain when I sailed up from Glasgow and came here to this heathen land of Africa, and that's a thing which cannot be said of me at present. If a man lives at all in this steaming-hot jungle of the Niger River, then he must learn very quickly, and most especially so if he lands at that dirty little trading post on Seguanga Creek. Upside-by, London coming up. Here you are, Mr. Dirt. Seguanga landing, and you can have it as far as I'm concerned. Well, I might say the parlor company had somewhat more elaborate offices in Glasgow, Mr. Simpson. Hey, no doubt about that. And how long did you sign up for? Four years. Four years. Looking for them, they catch your fellas in Glasgow before they ever see in the place. Oh, kind of, it's so bad. Those are fair-looking buildings there on the bank. Fair-looking buildings? Hey, what's that help? He's into it. You want to tear out the wharf? I don't suppose you've heard anything about Brock. Well, they told me I should report to the agent in charge here, a man named Captain Brock. Captain Brock? Every agent in this stinking jungle calls himself the Captain. That's him there in the wharf. Easy, boy. Get a line ready now. All right. Pat the model. He's a fair-sized man for certain. He's big enough, all right, in some ways. So is a gorilla. Watch out for him. Can I say I understand you. You will, Mr. Todd. If you live long enough. Up there, topside. Close the line, boy. Yes, sir. Me catch quick. That little fellow with him is named Ganson. You get nothing to fear from him till after Brock's made a move. He's a sneaky little jackal, but he never makes his own kill. I still can't understand what you're talking about, Mr. Simpson. You'll find out soon enough. Couldn't help you know how to go ahead of time. I dock here once a week on the river run.  You'd better know it right now. Mr. Simpson, you will have to explain. All right. Open up, Mr. Simpson. All same, plenty fast. All right, boy. Come on, Mr. Todd. You may as well meet your new boss. Don't blow on me. Look what the young wolf has sent out to us this time.  Well, Simpson, you are half a day late. When I start running my boat on a schedule, I'll send you a copy of it, Brock. If there was another boat on this river I could ship my stuff on. You know what I would do then, don't you? No, you wouldn't, Brock. Not as long as you know I carry a gun. You there. You the new junior assistant. That's all right, sir. My name is John Todd, and I assume you're coming. I'll take the time to find out your name later. And I do not give two cents for what you assume. That's telling the boss I get.  Yes, sir. And get out. Clear those natives of the wharf. All right, your captain. All right, move along now, you ready, Pegas. Come on, move now. You there. Oh! I have some brandy over the bungalow, Simpson, if you would like a drink while the boys are loading. I just had a drink. I'm bored. You there, whatever your name is. It's John Todd, sir. So it is John Todd, is it?  No, sir. Jock is the name for a fighting man, such as my father. Kind of say it fits me. So you are not a fighting man, eh? It makes things a lot easier, your daughter, Brock. As soon as you're both unloaded, you can bring the lading bills up to the office. Well, Todd, are you going to stand here on the wharf the rest of the day? No, sir, but I thought you'd be one... You thought! You are not paid to think. Get your stuff up to the bungalow and be quick about it. Whatever you say, Captain Brock.  I didn't understand it at all. The reason for Captain Brock having acted in such a strange way. I'd never met the man, nor could I think that he'd ever heard of me before. And I couldn't be certain of the extent of the man's authority here in the jungle. The Home Office and Glasgow having been a wee bit unclear about the matter. They had said only that the agent was very much like the captain aboard a ship, and that he carried full responsibility in his own two hands. But about the attitude of Captain Brock himself, I very soon had few doubts left in my head. I didn't see the man again the afternoon I arrived, but a house boy came and wakened me in the middle of the night and said the captain wished to see me in the main room of the bungalow. Immediately. Captain Brock, the boy said you'd sent for me, sir. You do not have to tell me that. It took you long enough to get here, too. Oh, it took no more time than to pull on a pair of pants. Oh. So it makes you argumentative to wake you up in the middle of the night. I was not intended to be so. I am not interested in your intentions, Mr. Todd. You will learn to keep a civil tongue in your head. I was not me.  That's better. And I suppose you're wondering why I had you waked up like this in the middle of the night. I presume you had a reason. Oh, you presume, do you? Oh, yes. And what do you presume the reason is? I'm afraid I couldn't say. Then I will tell you. I sent for you, Mr. Todd. Simply to show you I can have you waked up any time I pleased you. You had no other reason than that? None at all, Mr. Todd. A fighting man might resent it, but then you are not one, are you? Too bad. If that's all you've got to say to me, then I'll go back to my bed. That is all. Now get out of my office. Just as you say, Captain Brock. The attitude of the man didn't change none of the next few weeks, and I couldn't have find in my head any reason for his hatred. And it was hatred. It was in his eyes every time he spoke to me. I took care of my duties and stayed clear of them otherwise, and for the most part, we came to no head on clash. That with the two exceptions, however. The first one happened about a week after I arrived. I was supervising a group of natives at the time, working on the breakwater at the end of the wharf. Mr. Todd, what the devil are those boys supposed to be doing? They're repairing the breakwater. I can see that without being told. Now where did you get the authority to buy the timber? Why, you ordered it last week yourself from Cheedy Lorrie. Maybe I told you to accept delivery without having me look at it first. Well, you told me to receive it when it came in, and that's what I did. It's good timber, I checked it myself. How would you know if it is good timber? My father happens to be a forester back in Scotland. The devil take you and your father both. I'd advise you never to say that in my father's hearing. Are you threatening me? No, I'm nothing like that. But I'm sort of suggesting it isn't always wise to insult a man you've never seen. I see.  That's correct. The one they call Jack Todd, huh? Well, it is too bad he is not around here. Mr. John Todd. Boy, you there. Theo, what's the macuba? Throw out that piece of timber you're using, and if fool could see it, it's too short. Up on the deal. I said throw it out. I will teach you to argue.  I said get up.  I'd seen him knock Gunson down the same way, and then kick him like he did the natives. And Gunson took it, and saved his curses until Brock was not around. I wondered what I might do if he ever tried it on me. And the next week, I saw that he would try it, sooner or later.  We used a big wicker basket for measuring called a cooler, for some reason or other, and Diwona's boys would fill this, and then we'd dump it on the pile at the end of the building. Gunson was boss in the load, and then I'd check off each cooler in the tally book, as it was dumped. It was late in the afternoon when we finally finished. All right, all right, step loudly now you, then blighters here. Right no more to trouble about after this one. All right, Todd, here's the last one. You got it marked, have you? All right, Gunson. All right, now you're ready beggars. Let's take it back and dump it. Come on, put your backs to it now. Eve, Eve, here now. Chipper up, let's go.  Come on, shake him out. Now that does it. How many coolers did we have, Todd? Eight, ten, twelve, fourteen... How many you count? How many cooler you'll get, or same me, maybe? Seventeen, eight, nineteen, Diwona. Nineteen. Me count all same, twenty. Well, Locke, it's not you miss one, Todd. Give Miss twenty. I didn't miss one, Mr. Gunson. The tally is nineteen. Chippok, don't make all the way, Todd. Stand along. You pay me twenty, make all our trouble. Sorry, Diwona, the count stands at nineteen.  Give it to him. What's one cooler, more or less? Me tell Captain Brock, he fix good. That will not be necessary, Diwona. What is the trouble here, Todd?  I'm afraid I have nothing to do with it, Captain Brock. He claims twenty coolers, and I count at nineteen. Then you missed one. Give him twenty. Can I do that, sir? You what? Can I sign my name to help cheat the company? Cool. Blimey if it ain't downright news.  Mr. Todd. Out here, I am the company. Now, write out that credit check. Whatever you say, Captain Brock. It's taking your orders like a good chat, Mr. Todd. I thought you cheated.  Well, have you got it written, Mr. Todd? There you are, Captain Brock. Well, it is lucky you decided. Mr. Todd, you have made this out for nineteen. Which is, according to my count. Still not to write. I'll advise you to stop and think before you move. Well, now, you wouldn't be picking up that shovel with any hostile intent, would you? No, man. No more than you'd be advanced and taught me with a hostile intent. Like that, eh? Duana, I am tearing up this check. I will give you one myself for twenty. You always come to me. I will make it right with you. Yes, Captain. All same like you say. And Mr. Todd, I will make it right with you, too. You can depend on that. Brock stayed clear of me for a few weeks, and outside of the job of work I was hired to do, I had no words with him. I recall Mr. Simpson saying to watch out for him. And I was there, certainly, was only waiting for the chance to make his move. He outweighed me for fifty pound, and I knew beyond doubt that I couldn't stand up to him. But what really worried me was not knowing of any reason for the man's attitude. It made no sense that a man should go looking for a fight without no reason at all. At any rate, the weeks passed. The jungle steamed, and the muddy river rolled past the wharf. And then one day it happened. Sunday was my one three-day in the week. So I'd hired a canoe and paddled upstream for a visit with a fellow countryman at another trading post, some few miles away. It was just getting dark when I came back to the wharf, and when I got in close, I saw Brock standing there, smoking and leaning on a pylon at the far side. The watch boy squatted near the edge, waiting to take the line from my canoe. He caught it and pulled the boat in and made it fast. And I climbed out onto the wharf. Did you have a good trip, Mr. Todd? Not so bad, a bit hot, that was all. Uh, you, Savvy, which place canoe man live? Yes, sir. Live on Brockwood's side. Then go tell him, come get canoe. Tell him, two days pass. I give him check for pay. Oh, yes, sir. We'll go now. Tell man, plenty soon. Boy! Huh? You're there. Yes, sir, Captain Brock. Did I give you permission to leave the wharf? No, sir. But, Mr. Todd... Did I tell you you could leave? No, sir. All right. Then go get the head man. Tell him I want him here right away. And you come back with him. But, but... Captain Brock, sir... Move, boy! Yes, sir. All right, Todd, get up to your quarters. I think he'll be staying right here, Captain Brock. If you're planning to tie that boy to a post and flog him, as I've no doubt you've decided to do, then you'll be having a word with me first. Don't fly me. Genson, is that you? All right, y'all, Captain. I heard what he said. If it's a witness, you want him. I will tell you when I want anything. All right, Captain. No arm, that's enough. Take Mr. Todd up to his room and keep him there. I will attend to him later. If either of you lay a hand on me, it'll be a most unfortunate day in your lives. Oh, you don't say so, Mr. Todd. Mr. John Todd. I've told you what you may expect. So you have.  Not even like this. Oh, still not proper, Captain. Eat him again.  That is for smashing him aside. I tried to get up onto my knees and I couldn't.  Again. I knew it wouldn't take many to finish me off.  I made one effort and rolled off into the water. Please, call it to the water, Captain. Maybe call a swim. That is his hard luck. What suppose he trials it? The resident commissioner will be down on us for certain. I don't want to...  Yes, sir. He can swim all right. There he is now, climbing out in the bank. Come on, Mayfeeite. What's the matter, Mr. Todd?  You have not changed your mind about having a word with me, have you? Mr. John Todd? Back in my own quarters, I changed into dry clothes. Haring as fast as I could. I couldn't have find it in my heart to be angry with a man. He had struck me without warning and kicked me while I was down. And he was panning out to flog a native boy without the Lord having committed a fault. It was not a thing to become angry about. Cops then broke hard to be punished, that was all. And though it would mean my own life most likely, it had to be done. It was no more than a matter of simple justice. Within five minutes I was back at the wharf. The watchboy had come back with a headman and a group of natives had gathered around the circle of light thrown out by a hurricane lantern. They didn't see me at first. All right, Ganson. Pull his hands up over his head and tie them there. Stretch him out. Right there, Captain. The watchboy stood there trembling with fear while Ganson bound his hands to the heavy pole. Hurry up, you clumsy fool, and make it tight. I want him to hang there after I'm through with him. Oh, he'll do that all right. Captain is Todd. Well, Mr. Todd, you are just in time to see the boy get what is coming to him. Rock, I told you before. You'll not be doing this without having a word with me. I was under the impression that you had already had your word, Mr. Todd. You've been laying into me ever since I came here for reasons of your own, whatever they might be. And what do you plan to do about it, Mr. Todd? You may be somewhat within your rights and that respect, but you're not so when you hit a man without warning and kick him while he's lying on the ground. Go on, Captain. Give him what for? Go on. I take it then, Mr. Todd, you have objections to hitting a man without warning. Perhaps it is a thing your father would not think of doing. No objections, Mr. Rock. Now that I know you do it, for it's a thing that one can do as well as the other. Well, I'm here at you, Captain. I don't mind, now that I know it. I cuffed him along one side of the head and then again of the other, and a wide ear rock back from the blower clenched my hands around his thick neck and sank my fingers into his throat. Stop him, Captain.  Stop. He struggled and twitched, but I held on and kept choking him, clenching my hands tighter and tighter. He struck at me and I let go with one hand and cuffed him again, and then I lay him. Last set, look. That was somewhat of a mistake on my part. For the blow, he raised him so he tore himself loose and smashed his fist into my face. You got him now, Captain. Give it to him. No, give it to him. I will show you if you can. Kill him, Captain.  Get up, Todd.  Go on, Captain.  Look out, Captain. Look out. He's got your ankle.    You're breaking his leg. That's right, Ganson. Get up, Brock. On your feet, man. I hear through. I've only pretended. Come on.  I can feel up here. Kill him. Blimey, if you ain't broke, he's blimey. I doubt it. I'm thinking it's only twisted. Ganson. Yes, sir? Half the boys give him a hand to his room if he needs it. I'm going to my quarters and clean up a bit. All right, you are. Mr. Todd. And Captain Brock, you have no reason to be calling me a killer. I'm a peace-loving man and I have no good opinion of such things as killing and fighting. You tried to dump me in, Todd. You are going to pay for it.  You can count on it. I went to my quarters then and I didn't know what happened just after that. I didn't know about Brock kicking Ganson off the stairs while the little man was trying to help him. Nor about Ganson going to the captain's room a few minutes after. How are you feeling, Captain?  You've got no call to be treating me like that. I'd have helped you if I could, but they just want no chance. They'd have done for me the same as you can.  I'm not even moving my leg. They want no call to kick me a while ago, neither. I could get out of this chair. I do the same again. You can't get up, Captain Brock. How could I hope to...   The optonomy, the first minute I landed like you got an appetite of doing when the bloke is new.  You've been treating me like a ruddy dog, Captain. And I've been taking it, too. Until now. Oh, what are you up to, Ganson? Ganson? G-Ganson? I sat there in my room for a long time, holding the pistol I'd taken from a drawer of the desk. I couldn't see any way out of it. Sooner or later, at the first chance he could find, Brock was going to kill me. And aside from murder and the man in cold blood, I didn't see any way of preventing him. I couldn't leave the trading post, and for certain, I couldn't stay on my guard for 24 hours a day. I couldn't say how long it was I sat there, holding the pistol in my hand, and trying to think how I might keep from dying.  Then I heard somebody coming down the hall outside my door. I thought for a moment they might be going past, but then I raised the gun and pointed it at the door. Ganson! Ganson!  Man? Oh, you ought to see him, Mr. Todd. You ought to come take a look at him. Oh, blimey, if I ain't marked him up all right. I marked him good. What are you saying, man? What have you done? He must always thought he was so much, just because he was bigger than me. I'll show him all right. What have you done? Oh, and you can't take a look for yourself, Mr. Todd. Come and see what used to be so I and Mighty calling itself Captain Brock. Take a look at him, Mr. Todd. He ain't quite so tough now as he was before. What have you done to him? Please, please do not let him hit me. Please, don't let him hit me again. With my own two hands I've done it, Mr. Todd. I beat his face to a pulp, I did. No, man, while he's helpless, get as bad as he is, Ganson. Please do not let him hit me again, Mr. Todd. He's not going to hit you, Brock. Get your own, Ganson. Come on. All right, Mr. Todd. Anyway, I marked him. I've marked his face up good so it'll show for a long time. Don't let him hit me again.  Most likely you'll live through it all right, though you may never look the same again. Well, you've been having a bit of excitement. Oh, Mr. Simpson. I ducked at the warp ten minutes ago. The boys told me what had happened. Good Lord. You did all that. Oh, not to his face. Ganson has been settling up an old score. I'm afraid the little man has a vicious disposition. They never thought I'd see it.   Suppose we step outside and let him be? It's all right. Let me please go. Mr. Simpson, I've found out why Captain Brock hated me the way he did, why he threatened to kill me. Huh? Who do you think it is? The man of the coward, that's all. You saw him in there just now. He knew he was a coward, and he was afraid I'd find it out. You may be right. There's no doubt of it. And I'm thinking you'll have him for a passenger when you go back downriver. You'll not be able to stay here now that we understand him. And I'll see to it that Ganson goes along with him. Well, I can't say that I'll mind the change. I mean, doing business here from now on is a gent by the name of Jock Todd. Jock? Oh, no. You're taking me all wrong. I'm a peace-loving man, and my name is John. It's no wise proper to call a man Jock, unless he's a fighter. Now, you take my father, for instance. There's a man who can hold his own in any kind of company. But I don't know. Escape, produced and directed by Norman McDonnell, tonight brought you John Jock Todd by Robert Simpson, adapted for radio by Les Crutchfield, featuring Wilms Herbert as John Todd, Jack Krushen as Captain Brock, and Tony Barrett as Ganson, with Don Diamond and Paul McVeigh. The musical score was conducted by Wilbur Hatch. Next week. You are rushing forward through time, far into the future, trying desperately to flee the clutching fingers of a band of night-creatures, a dream-like horror from whom there seems no escape. Next week, we Escape with H.G. Wells' awesome story, The Time Machine. Good night, then, until the same time, next week, when, once again, we offer you Escape. This is CBS, the Columbia Broadcasting System.


I'm starting to think Ryan was right about you, bro. You do not believe me. How's it going, everybody? Dottonoi here.  This time, it is the embodiment of evil. Kid Boo.  Oh. Before we hop in, I was going to say who is going to be an intro clip. Oh, yeah. Since you already know the intro clip, there's no down below who you think is going to die first up against Kid Boo. I notice you're ready to up first. Fine. Go first. Yeah. As I'm fighting this guy, why don't you go ahead and let him know why this first round is going to look so easy while I'm beating this guy up. We get it. You're incapable of explaining simple things. I almost messed up my word. You almost messed up the word simple. Let me see if I can comment this. The irony of that. Anyway, these raid battles start super easy and progressively get harder. You should be getting perfects in the first three rounds, or you might as well just hang it up, bro, because you're not built like that. Anyway, it's going to start super easy, and it's not going to start getting difficult until round four or five. Everybody's doing a part on this, so look at every channel. Yeah. Yeah. Next round? I want to up the ante, bro. Instead of just who's going to die first, who's going to get hit first here? Oh, hit first. I was going to say round two is still one of those rounds where it's pretty easy, so we should get a perfect. Like right, I was going to say if you didn't do a super there. Like right here, bro, go ahead and get your perfect. Bro, I'm going to go ahead and finish the job. That was all me. That technically counts as a Goku Black perfect now? Yeah, that's what I do, bro. I wanted to have my friends involved here. Leave me alone. Leave me alone? We're about to beat this first try. Don't say that. I know what's going to get included at some point in this video, and it's that stence. Stence? Stence?  Watch this. It's about to hurt. Excuse me. I'm going to start with the 5H, bro. He won't block. He won't block. Let's go. I don't know why we're Goku Black fights. He just has his whole palm out. Yeah, he does. He does attack with his palm extended. I dropped him. Oh, no. All right, I got hit. No, that was bad. Looks like if you guess Dino and me at the same time. No, you got hit. I see your health down, too, bro. Yeah, because you tagged me in. I just wanted it to be so no one got it right, bro. Yeah, if anybody didn't guess two people. My health is full. I have blue health. All right, let me at him. Let me at him. All right, whoop his ass, bro. To him. I was so ready to stop pressing buttons because I was about to tag me in. He thought, bro, I told you, I'd never do that. That was not going to get hit again, bro. Don't worry. All right, now I'll tag you in. If fair and honest character, I'm not going to get hit for the rest of this raid. Say you swear, then we got this easy. Look at that.  Level two, level two. I don't need to level two. I don't need no supers. This raid is so easy. So far, I haven't really been impressed with this raid's difficulty. And he's probably, he's still, OK. He blocked that one. I started with the buttons. He's doing a lot of blocking. Yo, can I just say he hasn't command grabbed us one time this entire raid. He's trying. He's trying, but he hasn't ever laid a bit. All I've been seeing for comments on Twitch and everything is like, yo, we're going to do a raid. He's not command grabbing us all the time. They didn't believe in us. I'm kind of sad because it'll be hilarious if that happened. Oh, no. Yeah, I'm starting to think maybe people that recommended do this raid.  I'm starting to think Ryan was right about you, bro. You do not. It's all coming back to me. It's all coming back to me. Just cut the intro. It's all coming back to me. Look at him.  He thinks he's better than me. I can yell too. Right, I see you made that decision.  Let's go. See me in the corner. I can pencil you in for beating. I hope your schedule is free, bro. There you go. All right. There you go. Look at that. Look at that. You got those combos? You know what? Maybe we just finished it. There you go. What are you? Whoa. Dada. I'm beat kid Booza. Dada. Dada. Let's go. You didn't kill him? No, I'll beat him up. Hey. I was about to say if you somehow managed to lose. All right, Dada. To him, Spark. To him, Spark, let's get it. I don't think I'm going to Spark, but I am going to get payback for why. Why is he like this? Theon. Yeah, what? Why me? I don't know. But he's scary, but watch that. Defense, defense, technique. Safe jump. Nice safe jump. Remember, we already have a clip. Oh, wait. I thought I was a different character. What? Nice dodge. I hope I was going to hit. Let's go. Oh, full auto combo tracking. Hey, we move. What's up? Hold on a minute. Who cares if kid Boo has seven bars? He's going to use them. Come here.  That's crazy. Kid Boo doesn't know his own strength. You know, I'm going to test that fear. Instead of doing a real, like, proper setup, I'm super dad. Careful, careful. He might do it again. Why did he miss every level three? He's not good at it. I noticed. Oh, he tried to drag and rush me. There you go. Look, he's dead. He's dead. He's dead. It's over. It's over. All right. Now we can say, watch this. Watch this. Watch this. Watch this. There you go. There you go.  Why did you do that? Just kill him. That was an interesting decision. That was a real interesting. Now I got to step in and intervene, bro. I'm built a little differently than the. You were saying? Guys? This will go down as the worst collapse in three-edged history. If somehow Dino doesn't win this. Yay! There you go. Oh my god. That was aggressive. My friends! Dino, can I see you in the kitchen? Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's up? Yeah.  He's talking to himself again, man. You want to go back in there and then play more? Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, that's good. Listen, I just thought it would be a good move to heal up a little bit. And I'm readying up first.  Hold on. Oh, add partial drain first. Listen, listen. He's pink now, but when I'm done with him, he's going to be red because he's going to be covered in blood when I beat the out of him. Watch this. That's why you had to censor that out. Fuck, let's go. Oh no. I forget you're Goku Black. I was like, what is this intro? Like kid boo has a view. Yeah, I thought it was. They gave him a raid boss intro. All I'm saying is I have a reputation for round seven. Dark Souls is going to see this video. They're going to see it. I'm still alive and just nerve you I go for after this. You know what? I changed my mind. Why? Oh, I thought that was me. I got really worried. I got really scared. He can't stop this. Oh, OK. He can't stop this. Hang on, man. You don't have that privilege. Me and you don't have that privilege? You don't? Yes, he does. We would have died there. We're slightly no fair and honest. All right. Can you call me in? Because at this health, I'm going to die if he hits the assist. I don't need you. I got this. It's getting really scary back here. How about we just hit him with a level three so he can, like, we're not that spock? Arxes, if you're watching this, turn it off. Well, you're still alive. So yeah, we've got to do something about that. Is somebody going to sue us? Somebody is going to be. Oh, fair and honest, right? Yeah, very fair and honest.

Welcome to the World Summit on the Information Society 2016 in Geneva, Switzerland. And I'm delighted to say that I'm joined by a regulator. Leon Keng Tai is the Deputy CEO of the Infocom Development Authority of Singapore. Regulators, they don't normally get involved in development. Tell me, how you see the role of a regulator evolving today? I think in today's world, the regulator has to be focused on an outcome, a national outcome. And therefore looking at regulation purely in its technical form, I think is insufficient today. In Singapore actually about 10 years ago, in a way we experimented with combining a regulator's role and a development role. Basically the whole idea is that can we bring more tools into our toolbox, not just regulatory tools, but also how government can incentivise or work with the industry to create a national outcome which pure regulations would not achieve. What would you say has been the biggest achievement that you've had in this area? I think the biggest achievement would be our rollout of national fibre to the home network which started about six years ago. Again the idea then was that if we wanted every household in Singapore to have fibre to the home at a very affordable rate, the question is can we leave it totally to pure market forces. We came to the conclusion that we could but it might take longer than what we would have liked. And in order to ensure Singapore's competitiveness, we probably need to do something other than just regulations but also combining development. So that is what we did, combining with some co-investment by the government, working with the industry and at the same time applying regulatory tools, we wanted to have a nationwide fibre to the home network achieved in two to three years time and at a very affordable rate. So today in Singapore, any household can get a one gigabit per second fibre to the home for about 30 US dollars and I think that is quite an achievement because of this combination of regulations and development. Would you say that Singapore therefore serves as a model for other countries that you've managed to combine successfully development and the role of a regulator? I think this is something that I would say that regulators of today should consider because the world is getting complicated and really infrastructure alone is insufficient because we are talking about world information society. The key is information society, not just communication infrastructure and therefore I think we need to look at a higher level, looking at what you want to achieve as a country and then from there in a way work backwards and see what tools you have in your toolkit and you really need that combination either at a single agency level or even if it's at multiple agency level we will need to find a way to coordinate those efforts such that you achieve a higher level outcome for the country. Leo Keng Tai, Deputy CEO of the Infocom Development Authority of Singapore thank you very much for joining us this afternoon. You're welcome. And please do join us on the ITU YouTube channel where you will hear from regulators, experts from the private and public sector on the difference that information and communication technology can make to people's lives.


Responding to crisis means asking the people in crisis about their needs. Ensuring that we do not descend into increased protectionism and conflict as we have in the past. You need to work out why you've got a problem and then you need to solve it. And often that requires new ways of thinking and doing things that previously you had thought were not desirable. Our research found that the vaccine can stop an outbreak. For me, responding to crisis is more of a long term thing. Not the immediate thing of what happens in the couple of days afterwards. The discrimination that girls face in their early childhood and adolescence tends to continue into adulthood. Responding to crisis does not mean doing the same thing that you did in the previous crisis. What happens 20, 30, 40 years after a crisis? We have seen progress in the last 25 years. There's more investment in child health and we have seen reduction in child mortality. Responding to the jobs crisis that is currently in Sub-Saharan Africa and is about to hit at an even bigger scale than ever. Delivering on people's needs when they are in a life-threatening position. That means being prepared and taking seriously the investments that are needed in order for good jobs to be created in the future. Understanding that there is a silent emergency throughout the world that afflicts children and women primarily. Pay attention to those people who need help today. What were the most effective interventions and have we really put our resources in these interventions?

They do Jake DeLeo base auto for the fish It's our second auto in that stack Justin Crawford Rainer Arias and there you go Chase Davis for the Cardinals Usually it's one per stack. I love going through my baseball cards It's always fun. It's always fun Brady Smith Brady Smith on the nice color match for the Dodgers Sky Blue Chrome Dodgers Jackson Churio and Johnny Farmello That's the Mariner in my opinion to watch. He's not as hyped as Tai Pete or Cole Emerson But I think he's the the Mariner to watch Number nine in their system. I Yeah Don't say I didn't warn you Anthony Gutierrez on the fuchsia Lunar out of 199 Rangers Max Clark Travis Honeyman and Alex from here Super so bad We're doing your deal. I'm beyond you're young. I've ripped so much bowman Max Clark There we go. Masterwork just got back in stock. There we go. Noble Meyer told y'all noble noble Meyer So masterwork will be back in stock Enjoying some masterwork breaks when we list that yeah, I was upset. I missed the first wave Wow Wow Boston on the aqua lava Nassan Zonatello Yo, there we go Boston congratulations. That's going out to said G Jacob Wilson cave Denton and Rock Rizio. I think we're gonna have an extra I think that that's what we're looking at Cameo Diaz for the Astros cameo Diaz. Yeah, I love the sketches in masterwork Don't get me wrong all of Scott Star Wars sketches are good. I just feel like the masterwork ones hit different Especially the booklet ones. Oh, yeah, he for Lord. I Like the sketches the fact that they're on a slightly thicker stock also Joe Whitman on the green grass out of 99 for the Giants Joe Whitman green grass Jackson Holiday Zavala and Garrett Forrester Yeah, we got one more auto still in our first box of the break Believe we still have 13 to go in the next break Jay will drop you a link after this box There you go. Paul schemes on the Bowman glass So at first I thought this design was it was all right, but I didn't think it was amazing I just saw if you hit all nine of the yellow Bowman glass cards It actually puts together a giant stained glass picture. I did not realize that when the product came out Really cool concept now and Joe Redfield. Did you know that? Yeah, I did not know that it took me after like the after the week release I was like, this makes something. Yeah, we got a speckle coming should be an auto out of 75 Max Clarke or 71. Excuse me should be an auto out of 71 or Not Devin Saltamon on the speckle Devin Saltamon speckle for the Phillies Rainer Arias Trozer and Jackson Wiggins. All right, let's see if we get an auto here. Otherwise, we just got the right amount of autos Not an extra one up. Oh why laneford? Looks like a colored Base Blake Mitchell mood ring Can't tell usually when these are numbered or not Blake Mitchell Bowman and Marudis That would go for box one. No, not a bad first box. Honestly, not Not a bad first box Again, all base paper will go to the one spot that did purchase it So any colored paper will go to your specific team, but outside of that all the rest of the paper will go to that one spot Jake Bofrin Yeah Blue jays needs someone to pan out that isn't a roll lady or Bow yassir Mercedes. I think it's gonna be treatment.  With breaks and people would be up to fill them I would love to break that early That would be crazy. Well Halle's coming to fix something for me. He's a little far There you go Mariners type heat on the Bowman glass type heat Bowman glass Sabah cool and Jake Cunningham He's the Oreo that I feel like people should be watching Not as hyped as the other two Orioles, but I like them Halle definitely deserves a raise I agree green grass Anthony Gutierrez Working on the rainbow here Rangers at a 99 Anthony Gutierrez He's also a name that people seem to not be talking about anymore, which is wild to me because yeah I picked up a lot of him from the jump and still am he's inexpensive. He is Eric Patanze. I'm telling you Brewers Eric Patanze Something to watch read it first It's just the answer Samuel Munoz on the sky blue chrome and white Langford Woodward and Jack Mahoney Halle does way more than people realize. Yeah Bradbill Spencer Nevins Spencer Nevins for the Royals There you go KC Jackson Holliday. Oh Halloran and Cade Morris Jason Woodward sky blue paper Wyatt Langford on the insert Brian Acunha the youngest of the Acunha brothers and Colton led better Better led better Wave One time come on. Let's see a nice photo. Yeah, we go For the Giants Maui Ahuna gold wave auto out of 50 There you go Giants Giants are Gabriel very nice hit there Gabriel. I Like his name. He probably is the best name in the product. He really does kept alderman. So we made up our auto We should have one auto here in this last stack Because we got the Nevins and the Maui in the same stack. That's good. Not missing an auto The Hawaiian sensation exactly Exactly Charlie soda Espinoza and Braden Taylor. We've that's the second Braden Taylor refractor already Those add up y'all those add up quick Not what we're looking for but they they bring value to the table One of the advantages of ripping hobby and super jumbo Rainer Arias on the fuchsia lunar out of 199 Matt Shaw Ethan solace and there you go Tigers Max Clark Go Tigers again. Those add up get that in a PSA 10. You're looking at a hundred plus dollar card Paul Wilson sky blue crow Grayson hit on the lunar glow for the D-backs Carlson Reed and Connor burns Last pack here the second box y'all There we go for the White Sox Grant Taylor I've been hearing a lot of people talking about him as one of the sleeper pitchers in the product Grant Taylor for the White Sox I heard the same and Ethan O'Donnell behind the louder. Yeah, he's like the number two guy No schemes is number one I would say he's in that like three four range There's a couple because you got noble Myers still like you got a lot of really good pitchers in this noble Myers far away He's not gonna be up for a while, but you can't just sleep on him because he's young Yeah, this this whole draft class is going to be very good in my opinion when you look back on it a couple years down the line Colton led better Kendall George. I've also heard people call him Kendall, Jorge And I'm just like where I'm just like Breakers I've heard him saying I'm like, I don't think that's the case. I know that's definitely not Kendall, Jorge Yeah There we go another Brian Acuna this time green out of 99. Yeah, that was one of the most interesting one I've seen Kendall Jorge Sean Sullivan and Coleman Pickard Don't get me wrong. I've said names wrong I should not be one like pointing something out, but like I know that's not Jorge It's like you're adding on you're like trying to make him what he's not Waldrip sky blue paper Halley's back y'all there we go Fixing more stuff Connor Burns sky blue chrome Spencer Nevins on the lunar globe Cooler and Andrew Lindley.

I did not realize how well louder was selling either Yeah, I looked it up the other day For for pitchers, they're doing well same with Waldrip.  Yep Cole Emerson They go mariners. Sorry Connor Delgado Fumbled the card there my mistake Good thing. It was just a vet Gabriel Gonzalez on the Aqua wave out of 125 Gabriel Gonzalez. I love that color match The true Aqua for the Mariners with the Tiffany love it Mike Bovee and Jackson Holliday I wish more teams like had fun with colors like what the Mariners doing stuff like that I think it's just common Every team has like their own Just kind of thing. Oh, yeah at this point. You can't change it. I meant like at in the to begin with like the like the Brewers they have like it's not just normal yellow and blue true Nolan McLean That's more what I mean by like actually had fun Rangers is just red white and blue. Yeah, so Like I kind of like it when they bring out the like baby blue uniforms and stuff like that gold Cade cooler. There we go gold first auto for the Braves There we go Atlanta Who's got a Matthew B? Congrats Matthew That one snuck up on us Dylan Campbell and Brady house There we go now we're gonna start heating up hit our first true goal. We hit a gold wave This has been a solid start to the case and we're just three boxes in Chase Davis Homer Bush Yeah, exactly Cade cooler Luis on hell as a met out of 250 Believe that's one of his first Mets cards. No Colt Keith. So Colt Keith is an example of like Just because you're chasing one guy even if you hit the other guy it might work out Hackerburg and hit that's fair everyone was chasing Torkelson was hitting Colt Keith Hopefully you held your coat Keith Honestly, same thing with Max Anderson all over again with the Tigers. Yep, dude hit like 21 homers in 85 at bats Guy mashes the ball. He's just not Max Clark. There you go. Jake DeLeo gold paper. I'm telling y'all Max Anderson Watch out for him as well Lot of guys to watch in this Carlson Reed sky blue chrome Jacob Wilson just because the main Watts Brown and Menachi Just because the main chase guy is the main chase guy doesn't mean the secondary or the third is it can't be better Yeah, you might not make your money on the initial like Right then and there if you have the Tigers and you don't hit a Clark Max Anderson might not cover your spot price But hold on to those Max Anderson's for a year or two. Let him develop see what happens That's part of the glory of bowman. There you go Brewers guy. We've been talking about all morning Eric But Tom T Group room very nice hit there Brewers Salas Tommy Troy. There you go D-backs and Tanner Hall Box four What up Jace? Again y'all if you have questions about bowman about cards I'm also always happy to answer your your sports cards questions. However, I can help It does not just have to be break questions. It doesn't just have to be value questions Let me know how I can help Tommy Hawk Cole Emerson Brooks Lee, I hit the 101 Brooks Lee paper From from this product Black paper Yeah, I hit the black paper. So if anyone's looking for the Brooks Lee black paper one-of-one Don't buy into breaks looking for it. There you go Mariners. There we go Teddy McGraw blue chrome auto out of 150 Mouse. Yes. Yes. He is same with Acuna. Yeah Max Anderson But yeah, Mike Trout is the classic Classic example of Just because you don't know who the guy is when the product comes out does not mean they're not worth chasing Colt Emerson at a 199 Well, the Tigers might want to worry about making the playoffs first It's I don't I'm confused Atkenberg on the Lunar Glow Hunter Owen and Marcus Brown. I also don't know who that is I Martin right now right now you should be buying draft. Yep Draft is far and away the best Bowman every year in terms of long-term value all of that. There you go Yankees The rock is here rock Yeah rock rock Rizio, I know who Tim McGraw is I don't know who tug McGraw is I Know who Tim McGraw is I think I'm trying to remember Levi Wells and Napsick I've seen Tim McGraw live.

He's still named Tim Little he says Teddy is Tim's son Interesting, okay Travis Honeyman you learn something new every day. I love it. Joe Vitrano For the Dodgers hey, at least you're not quizzing me on what movie titles are that was brutal Little he was just rich would make up names and be like is this real and I'm like, I don't know I don't watch movies That was so bad Casey Meyers needs to be good for the Tigers Casey Meyers really needs to be good No, Matt Shaw there you go cubbies It's the same thing like unfortunately, I don't think lighter is gonna do anything Rocker, maybe I think rocker has a better shot. Yeah, Brock Vrandenburg on the blue true out of 150 for the Marlins Sharks of the corn is a real Paula schemes and Jacob Wilson, I don't know. I don't understand the Pistons though Spencer. They have the coach They have the town they have the talent, but they're still I just I don't get it 227.

How is your mound of base? Rock of Forte. Why yeah, how is how is your literal mountain of base treating you sir? Are you like screwed mcduck and just I see I don't know if this is real Can we go back to sports question? Actually, I wasn't even good at the sports questions Joshua Yeah, you're You took one on the chin for that one. I all power to you dude Honestly as long as you have a system in place though.

We are who not on the refractor out of 499. We go. There you go Giants Rhett Louder Colin Hauke and Weldon Francisca Yeah, any Brady goes to the nationals Whether it's base auto does not matter it goes to the nationals Homer Bush on the lunar globe Justin Reimer and Elijah Green There you go.

There we go Adrian Santana class of 2023 It's gonna be the refractor auto there non numbered Congratulations raise James Wood Joey Vetrano and Bowman Spencer if you have a plan in place and you have a system you can make a ton of money off of just the paper though Especially if you're buying it by the case You're basically guaranteed a certain number of like each of the top guys Brandon winnaker. It's it's very smart plan As long as you have a play a plan in place Like Joshua would be someone that I could see having a legit plan in place to make it effective Yeah, it's honestly for the ultra host hustlers. You spent a hundred dollars on a break spot and you're guaranteed money Sean Sullivan refractor auto for the Rockies Out of 499 Yeah, I mean you got a four hundred dollar card order last night on Bowman paper that pays for four breaks of paper Ty Floyd. Oh, it's definitely not worthless. No Yeah, exactly Joshua There's serious money to be made if you have the time that you could designate to it Blake Mitchell Jack Hurley and Sharia Matt Shaw color match out of 150. There we go. Let's go cubbies. Let's go. Who's got them? Who got the cubbies? Gabriel C. We'll mag that one for you. Hey, congratulations. Looks Jimmy Cabaios True color on the color match.

Yeah, exactly Joshua it makes sense as Long as you can actually handle it and move the base immediately if you hold it You're in trouble Enrique Bradfield Cooper Engel You hold that paper base. You're it's gonna go down quick or it could go up quick depending on the player. I Still grade paper base personally of Of the right prospects, I grade it gold Camp alderman for the Marlins Marlins, dude true gold and true blue non-autos in the same box I love it. Gotta love it. What a box Max Clark Picney and tomorrow Very nice box here.  I was like, maybe we're getting a Bowman glass. Oh, yeah I have not pulled one of those yet Enrique Bradfield and my area.

I'm sure a lot of people were going crazy for gravy on Christmas Jeff we're definitely pulling some nice cards We need one or two really big monsters to top off the case, but this case has been very solid Canily early Blake Mitchell and Hurston-Waldrick, this has been a very solid Grounded case so to speak. I've seen some awful cases There we go Orioles. There we go Aqua Lava Mac Horvath It's arguably the second best name that you're chasing with the Orioles. There we go Baltimore Very nice out of 199 189 out of 199 And Blake Mitchell Yeah, like Halle said make sure you're liking the stream and subscribing Subscribing is very important y'all like and subscribe Raiden Taylor Paul Skeens Watts Brown on the Lunar Glow for the Blue Jays Roman Anthony.

That's fair, Jace I don't know what you do, but I yeah, I can imagine especially if it's like customer-facing Paul schemes on the Bowman glass There you go Pittsburgh and Mac Horvath AJ Ewing aqua wave I was gonna say there's not really too much positive you can have there when you have yeah. Oh, yeah I there's not they they don't like the food that you're giving them at all I Yeah, I would be throwing my boot at you I don't understand why Hospital food is so bad Hold on the hospital you go to I've been to a few where some were better than others yet Hospital food can be better than other hospital food, but it's still not good Unless they like have like an actual like catering or just like Jason if you have questions ask We are happy to answer I've been grading for almost a decade at this point So definitely happy to try and give some tips and tricks and pointers However, I can help Matt Shaw on the Bowman glass Joe Redfield Obviously, there's people that have been Grading a lot longer than I have and have more expect more experience than me Hey, I didn't say the cooks were bad cooks. It's just not good food I'll put it like this. It's not their fault. They have to cook without salt because they Like patients aren't allowed to have salt There's Sam guys. There is Sam's guy TJ Walton on the yellow Lunar out of 75 I Mean think about that if you had to cook without salt There's no way anything you made would ever taste good. That sounds like more I don't know that I could do that Spencer. I would probably fail Max Clark Carmelo Travis you're not wrong They got a petition to use soul Zach Thornton for the Mets Sounds like any food from Kentucky Chase Davis. All right. Now. I'm not calling out shots on any states over here. Halley calm down. Come on We'll give everybody a fair shot over Sean Sullivan on the blue paper sky blue paper and he can talk you people defend yourself quiet Langford There we go base on the Enrique Bradfield on the mood ring Kentucky is not True blue out of 150 Coulson Montgomery for the White Sox We just can't aggravate Florida because we don't want any Florida man showing up Florida no and Troser That would be the worst thing Florida man shows up because someone made fun of their alligator.

I I personally like going through somebody. That's my Yeah, Brandon winnaker for the twins. Um, that's something. Yeah Yeah, rock Rizio. I would say for the most part unless you're very experienced and like Truly know the ins and outs and you're subbing hundreds of cards a month It's worth it to just use a submitter You might pay a dollar or two more per card, but you know that it's getting handled the way you want it to Bingo, there we go Brayden Taylor orange paper for the rays Very nice hit there Tampa Dump up. Yeah, I like I said I use both I just had a hundred and eighty card sub pop that was with a group submitter The company that we partnered with for our consignment also does PSA bgs I don't think they do SGC, but I know they do as you see now So, yeah, you can sub with PC sports cards. They sub PSA bgs and SGC Max Clark, they're like that one of the top guys Paul schemes for PSA Submissions that one of the top companies Luis Angel Acuna on the magenta lunar out of 199 and Kristen came I I've used them once or twice I like using people that are based in Cali so that it's like in person drop-off pickup But I don't think that there's like a difference like there was during cove in person drop-off versus not During COVID there was a difference. There was a gap. Yeah, you were getting your card significantly faster Ah Dylan we said you said quested Xavier Isaac. Yeah, you got your cards like a month or two faster if you drop them off during COVID Dude slow mo's this whole case has had a lot of nice numbers. We just need one really big auto still that's all We're missing one big auto Grant Taylor refractor out of 499.

I think that's really cool Jay Bashir's you see the interview with schemes where he got to repo box and he hit one of his cards and he was like I know there's pressure if I'm gonna be good.

Hello beautiful souls. This is a message about healing the collective and a very simple thing that each of us can do to really help that process along. I'm going to be illustrating using this wonderful set of Sharpies that I picked up on clearance recently. I went in to get black ones and left with every color Sharpie under the sun. So I'm just going to be using this to illustrate if you're not familiar with my channel. My name is Christy. My channel is Art of Awakening. And Art of Awakening is about exploring ideas and methods for realizing yourself as a divine creator with nature as a guide. So one thing that I've really noticed and you know that I think is something that it doesn't get talked about a lot because it's almost become like this cool thing to do is that a lot of people who really care about the planet right have this attitude about humanity that I think is really not serving the collective. It's not serving us as individuals and it's definitely not serving Mother Earth. Now they think they're you know the idea is it's it's not like there's anything that is being done that is consciously you know not consciously trying to hurt the earth. In fact it's like they're trying to feeling like they're they're feeling very protective of earth. But the concept is that we as humanity humanity is wrecking the earth that we're destroying the earth and that humanity is really a bad thing and ought to be wiped off the face of the earth and that the earth would be a lot better off without humanity on it. Now I've heard this concept articulated in many many ways by many people over the past few decades and in fact I used to kind of think that way myself and it really does come out of a place of hurt and wounding but it's really not serving anybody okay because when we heal as individuals one of the most important things the most important is really to learn to love the self and we as a collective as humanity you know especially in our western culture we're recognizing the extent of just you know how bad things have gotten on the earth in terms of you know what what what's happening to the planet what's happening to the ecosystems and it is there's a lot of a lot of suffering going on you know with with the earth and the creatures and and there's a lot of things that have to stop a lot of things that are like definitely not well right and a lot of what humanity is doing is making it worse but when we come to it with with this from this place of you know oh my god humanity is terrible it's it's very very damaging because what it does is it perpetuates it right it creates this this veil of just it's self-loathing right and it this it shins and it guilts and it's all those nasty things that we're trying to clear you know in on an individual level for ourselves as we heal but we're doing it to humanity as a whole and so I this is a message that I was just given to express to help to illustrate humanity's place on the planet in the earth and the consciousness and just to illustrate the importance and how wonderful and beautiful we are as a species why it's so important that we stay on this planet and why the planet loves us why mother earth mother gaya loves us so much okay so what I was given was on the planet there's you know the planet gaya earth mother earth she's got a consciousness and we're part of it and the the consciousness is expanding because that's what consciousness does this is the goddess since right always expanding it's very abundant and so but with with mother gaya all her children including humans were part of her right so it's almost like gaya is this tree and or the consciousness of gaya is like a tree here it's like a a plant and I'm going to take you if you've ever had college biology and take you back to that and in the growing part of a plant if you look at the cells and so forth you know there are cells in the bark and there are cells in the woody part of the the plant there's cells in the leaves there's there's you know the chlorophyll and the leaves that helps the plant to you know convert light into sugar you know the trees are amazing plants are amazing they they actually eat light but there are also these growing points so part of the tree and a very important part is these cells that actually are the cutting edge of growth and what I was shown was that different species because it's it's almost like the different species are different types of cells on the plant okay so where these cutting edges are these they're they're a little layer of cells that kind of pushes forward and expands and really leads the growth of the tree it's called a meristem and a plant will have multiple meristems like in this one there would be one here going out that way there would be one here that run out that way and here is the one at the top and that's the one that's leading the growth right and it's called the apical meristem which means the leading or the top um the apex the the top and what I was shown was that humanity occupies this spot right here this apical meristem that's what we are for consciousness on the planet um and there are other meristems and I was shown that you know maybe the cetaceans the whales would occupy this spot here the trees for the plant kingdom you know so the whales would be the apical meristem of the ocean life right and the trees are the apical meristem of plant life they're they're they're the most conscious they're the ones that are pushing the consciousness um in in that particular you know uh sector of of Gaia um some of the crystals are going to be the apical meristem of the the the mineral world okay there are ones that I'm told that I don't even know what they are but they're in the fungal kingdom you know there'll be a species or group of species that are going to be that that that meristem um but well I shouldn't say apical I should say for the trees that's that's a meristem right um so it's like these places where consciousness is expanding the most or where that growth of expansion is happening um and then all the other cells are also there you know they're supporting it so the meristem is you can't see it's more important or less important than any other part of the tree because the meristem is only just a little bitty uh layer of cells right where that growth happens where that spark is so it you know and the tree will survive without it but it's it's not going to be expanding or growing the way it should now if you cut off a branch right here you know it will regenerate and and eventually find another apical meristem but you've kind of retarded the growth for a while you've you've you've set things back okay so yes earth would do fine without us but it would miss us tremendously she would miss us tremendously and she would have to then regenerate another species to take our place where we're at okay and that would cost her so it's it's like but I think what's happened is that you know some of this biblical idea of humans were made you know as special and as you know to be over the others other species there's a core of truth to that for sure because we do occupy that spot but I think ego has seen that phrase or seen that concept and misinterpreted it to mean that oh we've we we can lord it over everything else and we're more important and that we can trash everything else for our own you know desires that's completely a misinterpretation and and not what was intended um so just this this whole thing is just to illustrate this concept of we are indistinguishable like we we are so much a part of everything else and it and it's all interdependent but that we occupy a very very important role and that is the expansion of consciousness now when we're looking at um kind of where where humanity is right now so it's like why why are things so hard why are things been so hard why why don't we get to this point if if we're like the center for growth if we're the this this apex of growth where the growth is happening then why are we trashing the planet you know what's up with that um well what I was told was that there is like a lot of it has to do with the masculine feminine roles because that's the creative forces that come together right and um indigenous societies and you know the the ones that are close to the earth they have definite um you know ways that the males and females relate to each other um you know those those are all mapped out and so they're able to live in a harmonious way you know through this but it's all mapped out for them but things had gotten kind of static to where nothing was really there wasn't a lot of change happening and growth to happen change has to happen consciousness needs to change in order to grow um and and so what's had to happen with humanity is like in order to you know step expand the consciousness because we've kind of gotten to the point where there was not a lot of growth happening in consciousness something had to shift so that so that things could be like opened up for bringing in greater levels of consciousness on a collective level okay um we'd kind of filled the ability of a single person and it was time now to to start bringing people together and collaborating and and and this is the next phase of consciousness this is the cutting edge where we're all coming together where there's going to be telepathy and and stuff like that um but in order for that to happen things had to kind of shake up it's the whole idea of um sometimes you gotta destroy stuff or cut it down or um you know shake it up before things can come back together again in a different way in order to you know expand and grow and develop so that's what happened with our whole society it it really had to be that way and it's not that we are intrinsically evil although there are some forces that were at play that sort of I think catalyzed this and in fact you can call it evil but you can also call it a catalyst okay so um it it doesn't necessarily mean that you know no judgment here it's what happened and it's what happened that results in this expansion of consciousness that we're experiencing right now um so sorry lost my train of thought so um but it all comes down to this is what had to happen this is where we're at and right now it's really really important for us to to heal a lot of this wounding that had to happen or that happened in the in the process of this dissolution of of of culture of society right and now is a time that we're we're beginning to remember who we are and remember why we're here and to start to pick up the pieces and put them back together in a different way that's that's that's going to really expand consciousness in a huge way this is like a supernova kind of expansion happening on the planet right now and and a lot of it is is happening within humanity i mean it's happening in all the species but for humanity we're a key part of that and it is the ascension of the earth okay this is how the earth herself is extending in large part through us okay so it's a healing and this is why it's really really important right now to catch ourselves when we start thinking bad thoughts about humanity thinking that humanity is bad thinking you know that it's shameful to be a human or or you know feeling guilty about what we've done to the earth um so yes it's very important to be aware of what's happening to the earth and to start to shift how we you know act in order to you know begin to to heal what's happened but as if you have done any healing on your own you know that it's really really hard to heal when you keep um you know thinking bad thoughts about yourself right so it's really important to have that self-love it's also really important to love the collective to love humanity to recognize how important humanity is and to value humanity and this is a message that I was given to relay um from mother earth she loves us she loves us tremendously mother earth loves us like there's no tomorrow and um she really wants us to love ourselves as well okay so I I hope that this hopefully is resonating with some people um if you've enjoyed this then then please do like um like this video and share it because I think it's it it feels like it's a really important message it needs to be shared it needs to be heard it needs to be definitely heard um so thank you thank you so much for watching I really appreciate it uh if you would like to subscribe to my channel if you're seeing this on higher self it's art of awakening and um I have contact information underneath the video that I've posted on my channel thank you so much and have a lovely day we'll catch you again tomorrow
