It's time for another one of those reaction videos that you guys seem to love so much and I always seem to sell a bit of myself for every time I do it. Everyone, welcome back to my channel. I hope you're all good. How are we doing? How's your day going? Are we enjoying Christmas, December content because I am and it's time for another one. So let's have a drum roll please. Today we're gonna be reacting to my 2022 TBR. So I did 20 books I have to read, have to, have to read in 2022 and we're gonna be reacting to the video and seeing how well I did. So my most recent one of these was I was reacting a couple weeks ago to my most anticipated books of 2022 for the first half of the year. I did awfully, like I actually did terribly. Like it was actually like the worst we've seen in a long time. But I'm cautiously, and I'm gonna say it now, optimistic for this video. I think I'm gonna have done quite well because this TBR is like, you know, it's gonna be books I already own mostly. I think there'll probably be a few new releases in there that I'm pretty sure that I was, you know, sure I was gonna read. But like, it was a book I was most excited to read at the start of the year. We were all so happy that day. It's actually hard to even imagine how terrible things would soon become. And I'm never gonna stop doing this video because I love doing the beginning of the year TBR because it, you know, sets the tone for a year. Where do I see myself? What am I excited to read? Yada yada. So we're gonna be reacting to it. So we've got 22 books. I'm optimistic I'm gonna have read at least half. There's gonna be some I haven't read. Like it's not gonna be 22. It probably won't be plus 15, you know, more than 15. But I'll be happy if it's half. I feel like, I feel like we're gonna get half. Put your guesses down in the comments below for how well you think I'm gonna do. But let's, oh, I need a notebook. Hang on. We need to record this. Get your phones in. Let's find this video. I'm excited. I'm actually feeling very optimistic. I'm so excited. God, I did bold eyebrows back in the day. TBR. So I have put together a list of 22 books I have to read. I must read in 2020. I really love this video. I love setting year-long TBRs. I love the goal of doing that. And I also love shading myself and having to go out myself in the year. That's what I'm here to do. Listen, I think I'm not gonna have read less than half. I believe in myself. Let's skip ahead and find the first one. So what we're gonna do, we're gonna start with the series I want to finish this year. Let's get into it. The first book on my 2022 TBR is Girls of Fate and Theory, by Natasha Nyang. I really had to stop myself. Well, we're not off to a good start, aren't we? So, yeah, haven't read that. Excuse me, excuse me, Megan, that behaviour is unacceptable. I don't like it. Here's the thing, right? You're thinking, Megan, you still have time to read these books, right? You've got like a whole month of the year left. But I've got so much end of year content. It was either do this now or never do it. You know, there's so many videos I want to make in December. So this is when it's getting made. Girls of Fate and Theory, I have not finished the series because I am scared. I am, I admit it, I'm scared. I'm really scared. I'm just not ready for the last book in the series and for everyone to like maybe die or like stuff to go wrong. I don't know. This is wrapped up. It could get unwrapped or wrapped up. Obviously, I've posted this week the first wrapped up episode. Go check it out if you haven't watched it. I know what I'm reading for the second one. I have not yet unwrapped the third and fourth. So it could be unwrapped. Who knows? I could end up reading it for the end of the year. But as of right now, it hasn't happened. Not after a great start. That one's out of fear of I want to love it and I'm scared I'm not going to, you know? If you don't know, this is a series about paper girls who are girls who are forced to sleep with the king and our main character is one of these. And it's sapphic and, you know, the story progressed and it becomes more than that. And, you know, it's a very, it's a very expansive series by the time we're especially getting to this last book. I love the relationship in this series. And, you know, I think it talks about trauma so, so well. And it's such a vivid fantasy. I love the writing. I love the world building. And, you know, it's a series that I read when I was first came back in treating. So I do hold it in a special place in my heart. I'm excited to kind of finish off this series and see where all the characters end up and what happened at the end. But I'm terrified and I kind of don't want it to happen either. Then we have Actual Age Eve Brown by Talia Hibbert. I really want to finish the Brown Sisters series. I love myself. I read this right at the start of the year. I read it, yeah, I think in like January. So this is the Brown Sisters series, which is like a romance series. Almost dropped my phone. Which is like, yeah, a romance series. We follow each of the sisters in one of the different books. Talia Hibbert I would say is my second favorite romance author, you know, behind Miss Ally. But, you know, whatever. I still love Talia Hibbert. And yeah, I finished this series right at the start of the year. Go Megan. Wow. Wow. That feels like so long ago. Next we have a very intimidating series. Oh my God. I put this on here to like make sure I do this and don't back out. I can't back out. We have got Jade War and Jade Legacy by Fonda Lee. So I have read it. Oh my God. We're up to three red. We're on our way to getting at least half. Yeah, I finished the Jade, what's it called? Green Bone Saga. Yeah, I finished that also near the start of the year. I think in like February or March, but obviously this list was more fresh in my brain. And I loved it. I didn't love Jade City. I gave it a 3.5. But Jade War and Jade Legacy, it's so good. One of my favorite fantasy series now because of that. This is like a following like a mafia kind of family who deal in Jade and the magical powers come from Jade and they're so cool. But it's heartbreaking as well. I loved this series. Oh my God. It was so good. Wow. What a moment. But wow, what a moment. I will never forget. Be warned. This will make you cry. It made me cry when I was reading the books. I wished I hadn't done it to myself, but like I'm glad for past Megan for taking, you know, taking the sacrifice. We're doing so well. I am so proud of myself. This is I think going to be the best I've ever done at one of these videos. Next I thought I would be kind to myself and I put a very short book on this list and that is Drowned Country by Emily Tesh. First of all, there's something about this cover. I fight me. Also, yeah, Drowned Country is still one of my favorite covers. I've read it. God, I'm so great. I didn't love this though. This is the sequel to Silver in the Wood and these like novellas about, God, they're so hard not to spoil. Like these woods and a man who has lived in the woods for a very long time and is it magical and is it gay? Yeah, both of them, I would say. But Drowned Country just didn't work. It was told in a very weird way where it like took place quite a long time after Silver in the Wood and would like keep fleshing back to what's happened in between the time. But like a lot of the book, you were kind of just confused as to what's happening. I don't know. I didn't love it, a little bit disappointing, but it was a nice quick read, you know. And then the last two books in this category, I've put them under series to finish, but this is more like series to make progress in. This is all that is out kind of of the series at the moment, so it's all I can read. But this series is going to keep expanding and keep expanding. So I am by no means finishing this series this year. And this is The Irogami Curse and The Village of Eight Graves by Sesshi Yokomizo. Right, it was it was too good to be true. I haven't read either of them. Yeah, I haven't continued with the Sesshi Yokomizo Detective series. I've still only read the first one, which was The Honjin Murders. I don't know why I haven't read these. I guess I just haven't done a video that they really fit and there was always something I was a little bit more excited to read. But Sesshi Yokomizo, I always say, is kind of like the act of Christie of Japanese mystery, crime, murder mysteries, and they're kind of slowly being translated. And these are still very high on my want to read. I'm pretty sure The Irogami Curse is wrapped up as well as like one of the ones that I'm most excited to read. So this is still up there as one of the books I'm most excited to read. But just haven't got around to it, have I? Just haven't got around to it, babes. I haven't got around to it. I had time. That wasn't very good, but I am from Essex, I promise you. Do you know what, honey? See you later. Take care of my love. Call me again. But yeah, no, I still really want to read both of these. And I think one or two more come out since then. Gokumen Island. I feel like that's the only one that has actually come out. And then there's another one that translated. So they're translating them quickly. I got a catch up. I got a catch up with them, you know? Then let's talk about the 2022. Oh, okay, 2022 releases, right?  I have four. I think if I've put four on here, it's going to be the ones I'm most excited for. I'm like 100% sure I'm going to read. 100% sure I'm going to. There's one that I'm like is on here to make me read it. The other three I'm sure I'm going to read. Like 100% sure. Okay. Firstly, we have got The Maid by Nita Pros. I was lucky enough to- I have read The Maid. We're up to five, but I've read. I'm doing so good. But yeah, I read The Maid by Nita Pros. It was a murder mystery, pulling a maid who is kind of framed for a murder that takes place in her hotel. I enjoyed it when I read it, but over time I just feel like it's a bit of a simple murder mystery. But if you're looking to get into murder mystery, I would recommend this as a good place to start. But who cares?  Then we have Where the Drown Girls Go by Shona McGuire. This is an arc. I was very lucky to be sent. I have read Where the Drown Girls Go by Shona McGuire. I'm so happy. This is so great for me. Yeah, I love Where the Drown Girls Go. This is the Way We're Children series. This is the latest installment. And I love these. I give them all five stars now. I just love them. This one, we're following a character called Korra. So Way We're Children series, sorry, is where these kids, if you watch me, you know what this is. I'm always torn between, do I address my video to the regular viewer or the viewer who doesn't watch me often? Who knows? It's about these children who have gone into these portal fantasies that are like perfect for them. They've come back to our world and they're struggling to get used to what this world is. Yeah, this one is following Korra, who's back in our world. Every other book takes place in our world at the Eleanor West School for Way We're Children. But this book is the first time we get introduced to a different school that has very different methods to Eleanor West School for Way We're Children. And I loved it. I loved Korra. I loved the new school setting. I found it so interesting. And then my other two 2022 releases I don't have copies of. First, we have The Paris Apartment by Lucy Foley. I just love myself. I've read it. I loved The Paris Apartment. This one is about a girl whose brother has gone missing and she goes to his Paris Apartment and there's secrets in the apartment block. She's trying to figure out what happened. There's a twist that I mean, I loved it. I loved the twist in this book. And I just love Lucy Foley. I can't wait to hear what she comes out with next. Lucy, give me a ring, clue me in. I'd like tonight. I'm his confidant, his best friend, his silly rabbit. But yeah, I knew I would read this. God, I was pretty good at putting stuff on this list that I was pretty sure I was going to read. That is the, you know, the method I choose now. When I used to make these kind of big TBRs, year-long TBRs, whatever, I put books on there to push myself, but then I never look at the list again. You know, or I look at it a few times, but not very often because I also want to react to these videos and not know what's on there. When I used to make these lists, I used to put books on here to push myself, but I would never remember what's on the list. Whereas I feel like I do a good job now of letting you know, like I'm probably going to read these books, you know? And then the one that I said, like, it's kind of wanting to make sure I this one I'm nervous about, not going to read, but we, we persevere. Babel by R.F. Krang. Megan, don't be scared. It's your favorite book of the year. I don't know. I feel like I'm saying that I'm kind of spoiling a lot of my end of year videos for you, but it is my favorite book I've read this year without a doubt. This is my top book of the year. I loved, I loved it. Babel, Babel, whatever you want me to say out there. It's amazing. It's R.F. Krang's best book in my opinion. I can't wait. I'm gonna get Tom to read it. Tom's got inter-reading lately, my boyfriend if you don't know. I just feel like you all know Thomas. Yeah, he's got inter-reading lately and he's reading the Wolf Hall series, but once he's finished that, I'm gonna try and make him read Babel. And I think he's interested. I think he's down for it because I was speaking to him obviously when I read it and like telling him all about it and I think he'd be really into it. So I'm just gonna make everyone read it. Mum and Dad are not like, I give my mum and dad a lot of books to read as well. They're not as up for it because they've read the Poppy War. My dad has read the whole Poppy War trilogy and they just like, they're like, I'm not sure I can go through the emotional damage that Rebecca inflicts and I'm like, fair enough. You're not. We need some happiness in our lives. I'm for the pain. Doesn't mean everyone else has to be too. Okay, the next category, I do have a mini category but we'll do that at the end. The next is just other books. Other books that are on my 2022 DVR. The first three are ones that I did get for Christmas. So I'm gonna speed through them. We have Unwell Women which is a book I got from my boyfriend's nan for Christmas. Unwell Women is still one of the books I want to read most. It's just quite a long and dense nonfiction so it's difficult for me to make time for it. But this is one that like, you know, I try not to repeat books but like I'd probably put it on my next year's TBR again if I didn't try to repeat books because it's still one of the books I'm most excited to read. It's following women's health throughout the years and how health practitioners is often, you know, ignored women or mistreated women etc. But yeah, it's quite long and quite dense so that's the reason I haven't got around to it yet. But that's, you know, that's fine. I will read it. Then we have True Crime Story by Joseph Knox. This is super exciting. It is super exciting Megan. I have read it. This is a like mixed media. It's mostly told through interviews. Murder mystery. I loved it. I gave it five stars. The audiobook is great. It's a full cast audiobook and I just love this book. It's so imaginative. It's the story of a girl who went missing, is presumed dead many years ago and we're following interviews with her like her sister, her best friend, like a lot of her ex-boyfriend, a lot of people who kind of knew her at the time she went missing. It was one of my most anticipated books I'd say for most of this year that I kept thinking, oh I really want to get around to that because it's mixed media murder mystery. I love murder mysteries. I love mixed media. It was written for me in particular and I kept laying through his knocks down by not reading it. He kept ringing me up. He was like, Megan, you haven't read it yet. I wrote it for you and I was like Joseph, I'm so sorry, okay? I'll get around to it. Delusion. Convince yourself. And then the other one I got for Christmas I'll only talk about quickly again is In My Dreams I Hold a Knife by Ashley Winstead.  I just love myself. We're up to 10 red. I also loved In My Dreams I Hold a Knife. I feel like a lot of the books that I've put on this list, wow, I really know my taste. I feel like a lot of them have been my five stars of this year. Wow, yeah, there's been a lot. Paris Apartment, Babble, In My Dreams I Hold a Knife, True Crime Story, what other ones are red? Jade Legacy, yeah, a lot of the ones I've put on this list are ones I've given five stars, which shows you. I know my reading taste, babes. I know my reading taste. Yeah, In My Dreams I Hold a Knife was great fun.  We returned to uni. I keep almost dropping my phone. I don't know if you saw my panic in my eyes. My reflexes are I caught it. Quick reflexes. Yeah, it was just a lot of fun and I'm so excited to read The Last Housewife. That might be one that I put on the list next year. And then we have A Latte's Away by Darcy Little Badger. So I haven't spoken about this in a long time. I have not read A Latte's Away yet. That's bad. That is one that's been on my TBR for, sorry, I keep making the chairs squeak. Just ignore it. You know it's part of the scenery. Yeah, it's one that I've wanted to read for a long time and it's been on my TBR for a long time and I haven't read it yet. And it's one I'm pretty sure I'm going to love. Everyone has told me I'm going to love it. When you join my Patreon you get to pick two books off of my TBR, be it physical or my audiobooks, to put into this jar. And if I pick a book out of here I have to read it. And a lot of people have picked A Latte's Away. A lot of people have picked A Latte's Away. I'm just waiting for it to turn up one day in TBR Cluedo. So yeah, I feel like it's, I really wanted to read this last year but now I really feel like I need to read it this year. Next we have The Appeal by Janice Hallett. Oh my god, I've read The Appeal. You know what's the most exciting thing about winning? It's when you win. I love that feeling. I didn't love it as much as I wanted to but it's super fun. It's another kind of mixed media murder mystery. Obviously that's something that I'm just always down for and like is a bit of a, I love a bit of a gimmick, right? What can I say? I'm a cheap girl apparently. But we've officially read 11. We've read at least half. Wow, great work Megan. Great job. Then we have a book. I think people will be surprised to see this because I haven't spoken about it a lot but it is And The Tree's Creptin by Dawn Kertigich. Okay yeah, no, I haven't read this yet. This is like a horror that's been really, everyone tells me I'm gonna love this. And I put both this and Unwell Women actually on my these books. I have to read them in 12 months or they self-destruct. I have to unhaul them. I did that video a couple weeks ago because I think partly could sense like Unwell Women and The Tree's Creptin like Megan, you're supposed to have read these books by now.  You've been saying that the books are most exciting for ages. Why haven't you read them love? Why haven't you read them? So yeah, this is like a horror that when you look through it it's told in very interesting ways. Like the font is really big sometimes and like I don't know it just looks very interesting on the page. And I've also had the audiobook is really good so yeah that's still one of the books I'm most excited to read but have not read it yet. Next we have A History of Wild Places by Shaye Earnshaw. Megan, I love you. I could like literally make out with you right now. I have read A History of Wild Places. I didn't love this. This one was pretty forgettable. It was like a cult book. I just feel like it was just really obvious what was happening in the entire book. Like when you know when a twist happens right at the end and like a book is based on one twist, right? It's not like a book that's super twisty and there's lots of stuff going on. Like it's kind of the book rests on one big twist and it was so obvious the whole time you're reading a book it doesn't even read as a twist to you. That is so disappointing, you know? That's so like oh that's bad. It's bad for us out here. So yeah I didn't love this. Pretty forgettable but at least I've read it. When did I read that? What did I read that for? I have no idea. Oh don't even think Gabby's Booktube Twin Test? It could be. I don't know.  Okay everyone but it's Blood Like Magic by Lizzelle Sandbury. I have not read Blood Like Magic. Okay it's a little bit sad for me out here. Lizzelle is one of my favorite author tubers. I watch Lizzelle a lot and I haven't read it yet because I'm kind of scared. But I've got a video. Would you guys be interested in me doing a vlog where I read some author tubers books? Because I've got at least two other author tuba books that I would really love to read that are pretty high on my um on my want to read. But it's like I've been thinking about this for a long time. I'm gonna use my focus group if you've watched this far into the video. I've been thinking about doing this for a long time but I can't just title it like reading author tuba books. Like I'd have to title it something so that people would watch it because I want people to watch the video to hear about the books right because they're books that I want to amplify. So I'd have to title it something controversial like are author tubers actually good at writing or are these author tuba books actually good or something like that. And I don't want the author tubers to feel like I'm disrespecting them but like I want people to watch the video to hear about your books. And if I just did reading author tuba books people wouldn't click on it as much. So do we think it's okay to make that title or is it disrespectful? I don't know. Okay and then we just have one mini last category which is classics. I decided to put a few classics on here because I am hoping to read more classics this year. That's a spoiler for my when I look over my goals of the year. I think I put read more classics on it and I don't think I've read one. So we may, we may just stay at 12 books having read but I'll be happy with that but yeah probably let's go through this quickly because I probably won't have read a lot of these. First we have Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. Yep haven't read. Let's just fly through it and we'll talk about these all together. Then we have Pride and Prejudice by Jane Ostens. Haven't read? Well to be fair I read Pride and Prejudice and I was like hey but I have not read it again since then. And then the final book on my 2022 TBR and one that I've put it under classics but like I won't count this as a classic when I read it is Kerala Endhouse by Agatha Christie. Oh I've read that one. Go me. Wow 13. I'm so proud of myself. That's like a record. So yeah I have not read Little Women and Pride and Prejudice. Obviously Little Women was, it's a film I really love. I really love the latest film of that and Pride and Prejudice I am obsessed. I mean I know the story of Pride and Prejudice so well because whenever I was ill growing up I would watch the Colin Firth BBC like TV show Pride and Prejudice. I still watch it a lot. I think I just did my last rewatch this year. So yeah I love Pride and Prejudice. I know the story very well but I have not reread it since I was like eight or ten or something. Kerala Endhouse I read. I read that recently. I love a good bit of Agatha. I would like to read Lord Edward Diaz very soon because then I can do my reread of Murder on the On Express because that's next in the series. Some people say to me oh you don't need to read yet the Poro series in order. You can read them in any order but like I just like to read them in order because I'm a completionist so that's why I'm doing that. It's a choice. It's not that I think it's necessary. We ended it on 13 that I have read. Nine that I haven't. I am so proud of her I could cry. I'm really happy with that you know and I maybe I'll read one or two of these. I don't think so. Maybe I read one of these before the year ends up. But um yeah what was your prediction on how many thought I'd read and did I surprise you? I think 13 is pretty good. I'm pretty proud of myself. It's much better than my usual showing. So thank you guys so much for watching. I hope you enjoyed it. I hope you're enjoying all the end of your content because it's my favorite to make. I love it so much and yeah I'll see you very soon in another video. Bye!

That is what I'm following up with Because many of the times The images or the information that is released to the public Sometimes you'll find that something is missing And when you feel that something is missing They are those who will just take that as a Bible truth And they go with it But some of us will always question things If you find they are the right things Then we will support where we can And actually push for help if needed But if you find that there is something that is missing You can't build a house with a weak foundation So that's when you see that we distance ourselves from such Yes And maybe it's true to get to the core of this matter Of course after the whole story will come up online that Saturday That Ben Chirah had lost his life We call it a hit-and-run Tuambes, is it someone who reached out to you Especially with that image? I haven't seen it anywhere Of course Of course, there are many links That you create once you are in this space So many create links in our 20s And many create links in our officers And many create links in our doctors And many create links in our many content creators So there is some information And then we will discuss For example, if you are a content creator And you are in Kikupatia You release it on your own I am an officer I am an officer in Kikupatia Don't mention any officer who was involved in this case Just you do your thing Probably justice will be served So I have links That is what I can say Links that actually all of them We are yearning for the truth So we call it a team It's a secret team That we don't just add anyone It's called truth seekers So truth seekers most of them They have placed themselves in the government They have placed themselves in private institutions And they are working like any other normal person But when they see they are normally That is when we like Why don't we add this So that it can be Probably be heard by the government And get fixed Or Kenyans can be aware And be vigilant of certain cases So yes, that picture It's the only one that I have And it's only me who has that picture Because as it appears There are people who are controlling even the pictures There are people who are controlling even the narratives You see That's why we have then do the guy With his own narrative about what happened And then we have these other persons It is also the lady Who says she was present And when these things were happening She was seeing them And you are like Who is seeing the truth How can you have different versions of the story The only place that actually is the same Is Chira asked for a lift That is the only thing that are conquering The vehicle guys And the piki piki guy And now the piki piki guy is like Chira likuwa na kimbia Kwa sababa likuwa Amiga ta kulipa fea Then what is the meaning of lift? Yes, it means you agreed to give me You know, mod of transportation From point A to point B Free of charge Kulikuwa na maelawano Then likuwa na kimbia nini Okay Then kama uliwa na hikanta na udukwa na nanduzi Ima gongam semu nilikuwa nae Na ulu kwa maimpa tia lift Buono zifuata tashke namba plate Nalewa That doesn't make sense And maybe let me take you a little back To the source of this photo That you have of Brian Chira On the spot when he lost his life They concurring with you that Probably Brian Chira was murdered Yes, yes Because let us go with either of their stories And say it's a vehicle that hit Chira Maybe they are not even aware it's kanta Let us just assume it's a vehicle An accident occurred, a vehicle hit Chira Okay So we go with the story And the statement that was recorded Take that statement Now take the pictures The first picture that has actually been going around On media platforms It was taken by side Okay Yes, where the ear is missing And that is the picture that has Really rotated the media so much And that is where most of the people are During conclusions You know And even with that picture I asked questions Like You want to tell me a vehicle Passed on this head And then it broke it Just This part of the skull The other one is intact The nose, the eyes are still in their sockets Gari kugongi apa shiko Ikugongi apa Alafi nacha macho Uku Ngozi bado ni smooth kaya kwa Chira Bro, what do you mean? Gari ni gongi apa pekiak Imagine the eyes are intact I'm serious I think you've seen the picture I've shown you Machos go intact Kugongo na kanta Ata kama ni kiyo Trust me The force that comes With a vehicle like kanta Or any other And then it was a hit and run That means it's not a hit and run The person was on high speed So ata kama me gonga kitu By the time I realized Nimutu ni me gonga Gone, una get Naakiyo na maybe kuna kelela mawa suandudi Most of the time uto na wasew hepa Especialy o kiske kuna suandudi Eee, press gas Nalawa Juwata amini Atil kuwani accident So mini eleze Me I want to understand Okay The vehicle hit this guy The The hands are intact Akuna ngozi meraru kata kidogo Then next to the accident Pa le li piguwa Kama ni kiyo vinyona sema Ikiyo basingi pigum to up Nalawa Nakini nimugonga up Kumugonga up anihapa tu No bruises na chira lianguwa kwa lami Namugom na nyesha spartza damu Doesn't add up With this whole story With this side of your story That chira will probably Have been murdered Fukunzatunge penda kujua Do you think maybe Wakatuna sema kwa ma li wawa Kulingana nawe Kulingana na zile picha Kulingana na the information that you have here in there Ali wawa kwa njiagani This is a This is a A blunt object That was used The thing to say with the The vehicle is just It's just an ex-case This is a very Hard blunt object That inesakuwe metumika Kugonga wiumi se na kumugonga visuri That is the only explanation Jua tukifkiriya wene alikuwa mleviya kanku kakwandudi Wene ali kakwandudi doesn't even add up Nika ma ili Ali limuwa somewhere else Aka leituwa, aka pituwa juu Nandudi So ionekane, nigari lemugonga kichuwa That mark of the missing ear Na some black Ta there probably But kuki angali aka bisa This was a hit Piga mtu Piga kuwa Akuna kuwacha Nalewa The other parts Nothing You've mentioned that you don't like giving up on your stories I don't know whether it's something that you have May be reported Amites being worked on Are there investigations going on? Even yesterday when I was live I was talking to officers Who were dealing with Chira Most of the time Chira was being arrested Of some time his utterances Some time just in discipline Cases where he's drinking or taking alcohol with friends So he was being arrested by a number of officers Within the region where he was Okay And when I disagreed about the so-called murder of Chira You know people expected me to maintain my silence Because I didn't like Chira, that is the truth I will not even pretend right now That I like Chira I will not I may be honest with everyone on media But can we be also Be human You don't like Chira okay It's okay but I'm not forced to like anyone right? But the thing is this If somebody can decide to do this to Chira The person I don't like They can also do to the people I like You understand?  So for me is They expected not me to talk about this That's why yesterday The video I posted was pulled down Was reported on TikTok unfortunately TikTok is a very fragile platform I don't want to use those negative words But it's a pin in the ass anyway So they pulled down my video I asked the right questions You're saying it's an accident My question is this Why is it that there are several witnesses Saying different things Why are we focused on raising funds To bury Chira And not also to You know with 8 million We can get a private investigator If we don't agree with the government Our pathologist We can get our own private Why are you so much into Let him get trusted Let us build a house for Shoshu Shoshu did not come on media asking for a house Shoshu did not come on media asking for cloth Sayiwa nambadilisha yama guanda Shoshu nambadilisha anguoku badilisha Nalewa She didn't ask for that She just wanted the grand son to be buried And then there was a person Who they are purporting to be Sijui Rosso Who gave 850,000 That is what was requested And then the casket was catered for Then Okay RG and Baba Talisha working on that Yes Then over sudden Shoshu Chira had a dream Aliambia nani he dream Uu kwa na dreamiako Why are you working so hard? Does this mean Truth You are against he Michiangu amba inafani kakonimit No, no For sure Chira does not have parents Chira has been rejected by Many of the family members Not just the grandfather Stop hiding behind the grandfather No one in the family talked about Chira And there is a reason as to why Chira never talked about family members He only talked about Shoshu Right? Because he knows The neglect that is there He wasn't a fool For God's sake he was in university You understand? So These people rejecting him The only people that actually are left with Chira Is actually friends And probably the tiktokas In this space So they coming through to fundraise That money should do also more Because we have to stop this unnecessary death Inafa tujuwe Chira li kufana pomba Probably some of this money could go to To such campaigns To educate youth I think the best you can do Mtuotano asilewe Mtuotano asilewe So that in case of anything There is a sub-mind That would actually narrate This is how it happened This what went down Rather than just having speculations So you don't enough for PSIDA So you don't have to do anything Peseli reiziwe kwa sahabu Ya kusaidia So ya kujijenga Kila mtu nata kujijenga bro? Taking of kujijenga You know you said Babati bought an iPhone 15 But he clarified He said Okay He clarified yesterday Kaseyama zile pesen Vaza zili changisha za Chira See Akutu miyo pesakun noi iPhone Ani ya kuna pili? Ani ya kuna pili? Kama kwa mba sama And just told him to work into a shop Get any phone and all Wacha tu pangane ya pa Munata ka tu pangane Saawa How long has Babati been on media? Quite some time He had 500k followers Videos of Babati zina kwa nga nini You tell me Miu kinuliza Chira na jua Chira Lekwana tukana waatu But at the same time He used to enjoy his tea Go to mueti Mueti ya fanyangi kitua wata important But ana kwa gana chaiyake Yen ya usawa na nga jiyaga 411 Kama ya jatoka kwa mueti Siyo chai Yoni supu Umela So there is some content that mueti does Enda kwa pita kiyoi Enda kwa nyako They always have something that they serve their people What does Babati serve people? Piti My wife died My wife died It is at this moment At this moment Mituwa na nga vibaya Of course on media What do you expect? Ata mi na tukana wa Onaget Not everybody agrees with me Ata ina jua Not everybody will agree with me And it is okay for everyone to have their opinion So zilevituzaute positive Wasana ndika kusu Ah Babati, you are a good father nini He never responds to such a comment But enda usemi apo Babati wekwenda oku Ta kuna line mituia apo kilasa And I pick that You know my kid This guy has invested in piti And Kenyan women Especially in diaspora We will help you Don't worry We have you Post us Show us what you do You said you are a videographer Kamu kifanya video zapa Uta kwa na behind the scenes Ta post us Ewa senki wa kazi This is our household This is the camera I use My camera person Wato na jua Ah by the way There is a lady by the name Shiko From S.P.M. Birds And she does a good job We would like to Approach her So there is something you are doing But this guy has built his empire On piti Onalewa That is number one Number two Atushuwa na fenyaga nini media Mimu kuja Mimu chanua wa se Kawaida minkokwa streets Nekon cyberspace I am trying to inform people That which I think they should know Onalewa So mine is sitting Ati na mchuki Simchuki simjui Ata I don't follow him Mimimu juli atu sayi Wakati zi vitu zi metokia And I saw like things are rushing Ya So you still think the iPhone Was bought with this money That was contributed for chika I am very convinced Uta ni kwa mbe Ushi chesili gemi Atanganya toto jinka So money land or rural I am not going to justice or games You did play Now See this situation Baba Ti was there I even helped Papa Ti I said Baba Ti Kuna watu anafanyanini Washanzaku changisha Na huja announce The pay bill Or the till number that will be used And in that life I am telling you People said we have already sent money What do you mean that there is no pay bill And I said I said Papa Ti And Shosho At the once we will Actually give you what The pay bill number Once it's announced On Baba Ti's platform That is the only moment You people are supposed to fundraise Tosa mnendaku fundraise Yes, the fundraising will take place I am one of the persons Who defended the legitimacy Of the true pay bill numbers Was I there with Baba Ti? No Shosh? No Do I know them? The two? No I don't At this point I know we have people Who want to know With this pay bill As truth watchdog Have you sent anything? Send what? Money So that you can buy an iPhone No And I'm not going to send 8 million already is enough What am I sending for? To do what exactly So when I defended this number I defended it because it's not there So let us stop lying to people And taking advantage In the name of Tira Klang Are you understanding? Let us wait Baba Ti To announce the number With the presence of Shosh And we start Okay But upon starting I realized there is something fishy Akauntia pitekyo yin diewe mnenda Akauntia nyaku almost going Amaitan private Then why are you fighting people Over a pay bill number So mshanzaku futana Then this creates A very bad environment You know there are people Who are like Okay we are waiting for that number So that we can send our contributions And probably get a proper send off To Tira You understand? So mukeanzaku piganevo Naniya li fanya Naniya li fanya You create a very bad environment And as such Some people will like A hold back Me being one of them Wait until they streamline Their issues And do this thing But upon doing that There was no committee Aywe bana And raising lines Me kwa na committee Kuna nila You must have people Who will be held accountable Wewe kuna pesaflani Zili kwa zasanduku Zili nda kwa zanduku Kuna pesaflani Zili kwa zafood Kuna pesaflani Zili kwa zatransportation Kuna pesaflani Zamochari Kuna pesazni Zidabaki Zina fas jenge Shoshu Is denda kama There has always to be a committee Kuna get Is there any I think Sahiiko Must we say ndo ikuwe And maybe truth Don't you think sincerely Babati has held this family A lot of times Even when Chira was alive Babati was very close to Chira Don't you think Piya me fanya like Kazimzuri In this whole place Babati na fanya lot For sure he has done a lot And nobody can dispute that Unless you are very biased So for me Ata ikule taha watu pamoja That is not easy Trust me Oneza kuja pana mi changoza Kuna una yo grace Eh utainba the whole day Na maybe kitutata hape bini panj So ikule tawa say pamoja iku For this case is okay But also there is the dishonest aspect of it You know for me People who pursue me Is truth seekers They want to know the truth Why is this not this So for example the issue of the fund Nobody, not me Or anyone else Alikwame oliza Babati Am a toa pi iPhone 15 Pro Max We didn't even know if there is an existence Of iPhone 15 Pro Max Iyende ali anaus Then people waka record kuya yo live Neliwa Then they started sending me these videos Then me I did my mathematics Iyi iPhone ili nunulio alini Sawa Kameni nunulio before the pay bill Am a ili iyo pesia 270,000 Neli adiwa before the pay bill Makes a lot of sense But then Kuna watu aneza kako gift kitu kaya yo Kwa konezola ni kitukubua But kuna msi yo ni pocket change Nalewa So nika juliza Ii pesia me tumah exactly what time Waka ti pay billi me kwa announced Around us due to kohot millions And then wimtu ana tumah pesa Exactly within this Range of time So nika juliza Okay sure as the transaction Akuna ili tumah kwa Kwa shop Mimi ni kongezakada Then I decided to take an iPhone Saba bifon ni ake na lag I lag bro Acha kudangaja What your phone has been okay But anyway I said But why this specific Nalewa But elu wumsi ya tangetwa 300,000 Nasa me ni me boost matangachira Ali troi hende ka nuwa iPhone Ikave matangachira Bro One last question This story a person a journey story In defu Plus atuna the evidence Right here exactly But now one last question The barrier is said to happen tomorrow Truth uta kwa pali I will send my representatives Send here Because you know I have realized any time Niki tokia maali People don't behave naturally They don't behave the way I suppose to behave Kwa iwa pali una taku hende ka content Mimi Sende content Mimi ni content That's why everyone is scared of me I'm the content Because niki henda pali Ineza leta bad blood as well Because for sure Mimi si taku danganya And I will not pretend Mimi si kuna penda tabi as a chira Musi ni fusi ni pende See easy Nalewa As a person I felt chira Is misleading a lot of youth I felt alcohol is not the way to To handle your problems You understand So I don't want to go there Because they are haters They are people who will not like my truth Una fukiria wasa una nipenda we Wasa wengini mahipo crits na maparas I took wii inje Na kia mbi ukuli they can't handle it So I will send my representatives Of course they will be there They will be watching very closely That's why muna nata videos to natua Natu yuko uko It's because watu yuko uko Na watu siya fika Mia kumzima The other question is After the burial With this whole story We say we are not giving up on this story What are you doing next Kwa zitu? Ita gwaniki siri kwa sababu If indeed Mutua liwa chira Don't think they are happy Being exposed That they participated in the death of chira So that one will remain Private for now But the findings Will not be private Trust me Probably how long will this take Ki angali atu labdaki juju Ni kama waja muna fkriya Surya jeftu liya achiliya It might take a year too But we have to find the truth That is it Because we call ourselves truth seekers So muneza tumi injeza Mi korakora apaku jaribu kuzoia Ukuelu juli kane Just like right now I know you don't have to give your opinion But you have seen the picture And I'm sure you have a different opinion And there are other Kenyans Who will see the same And they'll have a different opinion Reminds me that When Brian's body was taken to City Mochari We had a couple of tiktokers Who went to view the body I personally didn't Like kwingia kulendani But once a couple of them Like 3 Walingia palivodua like no That's not an accident Exactly Exactly It's not an accident Stop making it look like an accident So that you can fundraise But is anything being done So far Nothing is being done Guys are just being misled To focus on fundraising Kujengia shoshon yumba Una juikitu Wata ni kwa mbe Mufu hana adui Tuneza sema gukame kata But mbona familiy Mzima me kuwa sidelined Apart from shosh Shoshata tumi ka palimbaia Trust me Palivoku na family members Walianda kangalia kuna Eh, but it's true Chira is dead They should be at the front line You know This is their person Wa pende wasi pende Chira awa ni kuwa si dwegei I don't care This is your blood Ui ni dami Uwezi muweka wu ko inje Atu kimi dison Badu ile connection ya DNA bloodline Ni ako Anafa kuanda Anafa kuwa pali So iiku sidelined family members That they are proper people Who will handle this issue With only shosh Ini ukiri timba ni mapenzi ya pesa Neliwa Wakuji hapo Watu sume postmotam Watu ambio this is defilings Lakin ni sin sasa tukonado Kamagavo ita kwe mecheza venye Mecheza mbaia Situ tukonado We can still go and ask For a private investigation To take place Wa lipue Wa final investigation yao Tujue Kwa sababu Sambody told me in Kukui community You don't keep bodies You want to bury as quick as possible To forget the story That is natural death But when there is something fishy Then investigations needs to be done So you personally think the burial took place So fast Ya they are rushing It's not a normal accident We shouldn't trash it Inafakwanza tupatia madaktari tamiyao Chikweniza organs Do the findings Go to the To the site where they say there was an accident Do your measurements Carry samples Come back Analyze them Wapati eni yo time Adakama ni muwezin isawa So that we know that We are laying down Chira For sure he was a star in his own way And he's going to sleep May you rest in peace Nasi si piyat kwe left na peace Kwanba it's okay Accident can happen They can occur to anyone You are not safe You have to keep You have to try and be vigilant on the road And be careful When you take alcohol Please stop just going anyhow Then the funny thing is Who has the phone ya Before ni malize Nani ya kuna phone ya Chira Nambona he na police I play kwa ka police station Who suggested itolewa line Kwanini itolewa line Una jonimi tu fanizi na fani kana Wato nambiyom fanyamichanga Wapatama muwezi the right questions Any accident Someone who's dead Everything is supposed to be collected And left at the police station Investigations is fanyu kwanza Kila kitu ya nga liwe Was this planned What is that that is in that fund That is not supposed to reach the public Una lewa Munya kuna si miya Chira Ali kuna fanya ni na si miya Chira Muwece wong Alright Right there Truth watch dog with His side of the story Chetone labda Techkom kondogani But before we live Truth your social media handles Social media handles There is the one that I want to want people first Please if you're not used to seeing Raw images of accidents Or other things That are not so good especially to the society Don't join my telegram account That is a telegram account You have to go to my Instagram Like I said You go to my Instagram name is truth watch dog I have around 11,000 followers Then below there is a link to telegram So you follow Instagram you follow there But on YouTube Where we are at least softer and try to To avoid so much controversies with the media You will find us on TWD media And also we have the TWD official All YouTube channels On Facebook Truth watch dog as usual We have about 22,000 Followers on our page It's a page Facebook page Truth watch dog Yes Alright You can follow us too On our platforms at espmba's KE You can find me too At i underscore I'm Shiko Gitao On Facebook Instagram X tiktokilamali At i underscore I'm Shiko Gitao Until next time Have yourself a good good time


uh does this kill how's it going everybody dodge it away here back with another dragon ball fighters rank match video where today on the channel we're going to be playing a suggested team of Goku blue Piccolo and Tien also we're going up against the Super Saiyan Rose with Android 17 and Beerus in their profile so I'm about 90% sure I'm about to get washed that's not a good character combination to see it at this rank oh you see I already jabbed at a portal which is basically me that's basically the way you admit that you are not ready for this no bar you know what I actually could have probably instant transmission there Jesus Frank the weather here is awfully frightful I would not describe it all right don't I'm right we're going in early grab oh no really bad jumps all right he's respecting us I don't know if that's good if that's good for him or not wow nice reflect down heavy just hit the beer as it didn't work out we got the okay that was very lucky we got the goku black assist and now we're just kind of free to do whatever you want 17 the lag lag post the drop it could have been me honestly with my track record I wouldn't doubt it oh that's so sick looking DP already though I can't believe the bad luck on both sides okay nice okay I'm just gonna go to no oh and it's a happy birthday thank goodness I'm the TN player or that could have been really bad it's still pretty bad but if he was the TN player all right honestly I don't I don't know what's going on anymore I thought he crossed me up but he didn't all right I'm glad I took the hit enough space that's good this is definitely a kill I feel very good about this killing oh I didn't even need to do this I could just done two level ones waste a bar I feel like if I played TN a little bit more I would have had the confidence not to do that right away but I guess that's a that's about all the character diversity you'll see with TN no bad reflect I try to catch the key blast power blitz into alright this is gonna be optimal yeah I don't know if this kills no that's not killing I'm confident I'm gonna go ahead say we live in boys where we're gonna go on vacation after we live this it's gonna be tight now where we going on vacation though snack this man piccolo assist where you have to cover my flaws I might have I might have thought he was coming in for the volleyball he flew at me so fast I you know on the volleyball court we call that a set down heavy doesn't work out and this the hit stun from that unreal didn't push us back at all because I think Goku black Jack now all that's standing between us in a loss is one piccolo it's gonna be hard to compete with that five s that's one of Goku black's best tools I probably should have gone with the normal knockdown route I mean it wouldn't have been slow he had a ticket that was lag I'm pretty sure I don't think you would have done that if it wasn't for lag what a confirmed piccolo's normals are great and nobody's gonna argue that fact I regret my choices immensely oh he missed the normal there and the beam assist is there to make good on this promise no level three though okay dice the orb is so good the orb is so good okay it's a little more even now it's a little more even okay I don't know why I did this guys there it is I'm trying to make it too fast dude the Super Dash that was a great choice I'm getting random I'm getting random because you got to be random sometimes piccolo I do love piccolo as a character I think he's a lot of fun it's pretty unique too but obviously him being unique is kind of what makes me suck with him because I do not have the piccolo practice required to stay calm feel like I could have extended that no I'm panicking dude I'm pan I don't know why I did I blocked all of that but in my head I got hit oh that was a great choice come on you gotta let you gotta stop lagging on me in those situations no dude that one I think was me oh the hitbox you dare try to come encroach on piccolo space I'm gonna have to hit you with every normal I got in the book I admittedly I thought I was down heavy on that one okay I want Android 17 back we were kind of what we were kind of had a good thing going there that was rough not the best conversion we'll just take sliding here I think oh no I'm switching I might why do I want to switch it oh sick with it oh I struggled with that one yeah yeah yeah yeah that's what I'm talking about I don't have the piccolo knowledge that was that was really good DP nearest he doesn't even have to back that's to confirm off that just the auto turnaround light did it for him no assist there to make good with that I'm gonna switch them out I thought I had something there nice the light even elbows too quick nice he's not blocking he's getting scared of the grab I think which I don't think he really should be it's kind of I was just going for that because I had no other earthly idea how to open them up just the existence of that grab the back dash was smart also virus's range was a little pathetic there no bad reflect that one was more nerves than a thought like their form that was cheeky that was the definition of cheeky I got hit by an overhead that was kind of cheeky I like that I don't know if that was real or if I just let go of the or if I just didn't block the high low mix but I did like that visually I was impressed I go blue can we get this virus out of the way surprise I didn't get punished for that let's go pick up the pace we don't want to drop something like this one two three I should have just gone out in the TN it's not gonna kill I should have gone out in the TN right away alright TN lead the way you're the character I have the most faith in right now the raw damage potential let's do this thing okay I'll see you later oh that was stupid forgot no I let him get the vanish confirm it's too early to be letting him do this I clicked heavy I thought it would take that I mean I after after I clicked heavy I was kind of doomed not like I could influence my my motion any more than that but yikes I can't believe that happened this is why we down tech boys who are you clicking buttons against the weather here is insane does this kill the damage this man packs is insane he does not slouch when it comes to the damage I do wish the connection was a little better what is that too well I do wish the connection was a little bit better I'm not gonna lie to that if I could have 2M'd after that I would have felt like an actual God I would have felt like a God oh that was it's over it's actually over I'm I'm I'm actually playing like I'm out of my mind I accept that okay and we can switch 2M for prosperity and the Super Dash caught me before I could get that 2L out I would have been feeling it that went all chalk up to lag oh he's trying stuff and again it's unfortunately you can jab out of that okay no why did I do that no I'm not gonna let this happen oh get him over the jump no piccolo I'm just clicking buttons I'm clicking buttons the lag feels like it's gotten worse ah even though it showed three frames I don't know why I was feeling it right there okay pop up wow okay I didn't expect that was a lot I did not see another load coming I thought he was kind of done and nearing the end of his rotation alright so we actually lost the first character that I felt really good about that but we lost the first character I guess that's the momentum you got to get those characters switched out every now and then let me just can I talk to Android 17 again lock just in case of the year level 3 oh he did that one to himself no dude oh dude this sucks this actually sucks yes oh that war okay this guy is all the boot da boot you got the whole boot okay things were looking rough but then we hit him with the boot the confidence is back I'm down heavy yeah that was really bad I got down heavy the second he started running please hit yeah I I never get I never get tired of the damage I just I hate to admit it I say it every time but the damage is what what we didn't clash with the key come on T it how did you miss the key blast in front of your fate oh oh the auto karma that's not good in fact this is exceedingly bad why did we bring the fight to him again why did I do that level 3 for the hard knockdown we're getting mixed if not killed Jesus if not kill what what is the damage oh it's gonna be tight we're dead is what you all thought I've is what you all thought was gonna have come on come on dude you know that was cheap there we go now can I talk to this man outside where's why is the lack coming back oh let's go let's go and that's where we're gonna wrap it up the suggested team went pretty well this time we actually didn't get the most I didn't I

Ukraine's counter-offensive will continue until the end of autumn. Ukraine is facing sky-high expectations ahead of its upcoming counter-offensive, raising a litany of dangers if Kiev fails to make major advances against entrenched Russian forces. The Charlotte Observer wrote it. According to this media outlet, lackluster results could hurt Ukraine's international support moving forward, emboldened critics of continued military support, and ultimately benefit Russia. Ukraine has received nearly all of the promised military aid from Western allies, including infantry fighting vehicles and main battle tanks, all of which are upping the global pressure for Ukrainians to succeed. But victory is far from assured. At the same time, the counter-offensive anticipated to stretch until the late fall is Ukraine's one chance this year to prove its capabilities, according to military analysts. Edward Arnold, a research fellow at the Royal United Services Institute, said Ukraine is racing against time. Because the longer Russian forces remain in eastern territory, the more likely the war becomes static and occupation becomes a fate a complete. They don't need to do everything, but they need to do enough for that support to continue for at least another year. Arnold said to Charlotte Observer, they need to deliver a pretty significant play to Russian forces this year, and then it will be on Western backers to decide whether that is enough. He added.


There's one niche that people absolutely go crazy over. People absolutely love their shoes. People purchase them to wear, people purchase them to work out, people purchase them to just hang around the house, people purchase them to have them on display. I like your shoes. Where'd you get them? Today's video is going to focus all about the top shoes that you can start dropshipping along with the top suppliers that you can start sourcing them from. Now, if you want everything that I'm talking about in today's video, including all of the different links, tips and tricks and suggestions, just go ahead and leave a comment down below with the word hashtag shoe dropshipping. And let me know which one of these shoes was your favorite. Which one do you plan on selling? Do you plan on selling multiple ones of these? Let me know down in the comments below. Once I see that you went ahead and did that, I'll reply back with a link to the cheat sheet. Now, shoes are always trending, whether it be for men, women, kids, whoever it's for, shoes are always a trending topic. They're great gifts to get and receive. They're collector's items. There's a particular type of shoe for literally any occasion, whether it be going out, working out, hanging out, going to work, going to church, going to the supermarket, going for a walk, going for a run. There's a shoe for every single activity or occasion out there. So to kick things off, the first category that we're going to be looking into is going to be women's shoes. Now, when it comes to women's shoes, there's quite a variety of shoes. Women will have a pair of shoe for every single occasion. While most men are just going to have maybe two or three pairs of shoes, women are going to have a lot. Like it's just too much to count. I had a lot of shoes. Now, one of the most popular types of shoes that there are for women are clogs. Clogs can be found from practically any supplier and are a very common type of shoe. Now, right now I am showing you one of our top suppliers and that is Target. Target has some fantastic customer service. And of course, everyone loves Target. Who doesn't love Target? I love Target. Target offers some extremely quick shipping, some extremely good customer service. And they also have the red card, which gives you, for one, an extended return window to up to 5% cashback on most of your orders and three, two day shipping. Aside from clogs, close to sandals are also another huge hit. These are popular year round and for the most part are even more popular in places that have pretty hot or humid weather. So places like Florida, California, Texas, especially during the summertime and probably one of the most common types of shoes that I've seen women wear have to be flat sandals. They wear these literally everywhere. And one of the top places that you can source them is definitely going to be Walmart. Now on Walmart, you have some pretty quick shipping, some fantastic customer service and my personal favorite, the price match policy. So let's say you source your products today for $15 tomorrow. They go on sale for $10. So right there, you're thinking, oh, if I would have just waited one more day to source this product, I would have saved an extra five bucks. But that's where the price match policy comes in. If you contact Walmart and you show them your proof of purchase, they'll do the price adjustment and return those $5 to you. Every dollar saved is a dollar earned right there. You just made five extra bucks. If you can find a supplier with a price match policy, then you better use them. You have so much potential for so much more profits with that. And also for those that love exploring, there's also hiking sandals for women. Now, let's say, for example, you find a pair of hiking sandals in supplier A. Now, you're not using that particular supplier for whatever reason, but you still want to be able to offer them. In this case, let's assume that you're using CJ dropshipping, but they also don't have it available there either. So what do you do? Well, you're using CJ dropshipping. They have a sourcing option. So in this case, what you can do is you can reach out to the company and you can let them know that you're looking for this particular product. In which case, what's going to happen is they're going to start looking for that particular product from various suppliers. So that way they can add it to their marketplace. So what happens there is you can request for a particular product to be added to CJ dropshipping's inventory. So then you can source it to dropship. It's a very convenient way of sourcing different products, especially if you're preferring a supplier such as CJ dropshipping. And that's why CJ dropshipping is also one of our top suppliers on this list. On top of the product sourcing, you also have a ton of other benefits. For one, you have one of the widest product ranges imaginable. On top of that, their shipping times are pretty quick. Of course, they do have some slower shipping times, but you do have the option to choose faster shipping. And aside from that, one of my personal favorite benefits is the fact that they offer print on demand. With print on demand, you can print your designs on various different items, including shoes, t-shirts, socks, shower curtains, mouse pads, literally anything you can think of. Now, here's one very important tip that you should all follow when offering any kinds of shoes. And that is to offer a sizing chart. Shoes are all going to fit differently. So most likely you're going to have a different size chart for each pair of shoes that you have. That's why it's crucial that you have a sizing chart on your product page. All right. So that does it for the women's shoes. Now let's move on to men's shoes. Next up, we have flip flops for men. And personally, these are actually my favorite. I literally wear flip flops everywhere. If I'm not wearing crocs, I'm wearing flip flops. So one of the biggest suppliers that you can source your flip flops from has to be Banggood. Now, Banggood offers quite the variety of different options. And one of the best things about them is the fact that everything that's sold by Banggood is also shipped by Banggood. So they don't work with other sellers. They don't work with third-party sellers. Everything that you source from them is going to be shipped directly from them. Another huge thing that I absolutely love about Banggood is the fact that there is a promotion, a coupon, or some way to save money every single day. The moment you sign on to the website, you're prompted with a coupon. So if you're shopping from Banggood, you can expect some pretty good savings. Leather sandals are also another huge seller. People love leather. They love the quality of leather. They love the feel of leather. And they love the luxurious look of leather. Slides for men are also another huge hitter. There seems to be a debate whether flip flops or slides are better. Which one is your favorite? Let me know down in the comments below. But I know a lot of other people that love slides. They swear by them and they'll literally wear them everywhere. Next up, we have basketball shoes. These are probably the most versatile and the most seen shoes that you're going to see anywhere. These are also the ones that most people also collect. So right now, I'm showing you all of the different options on eBay because this is one of the best websites that you can use to source unique shoes. On top of that, you can also find collector's items on here. So you can find limited-run shoes, shoes that have been discontinued, and shoes that people are really willing to pay top dollar for. When I tell you that people are willing to pay top dollar for these sneakers, there are people that are willing to pay over a thousand, even $2,000 for some of these pairs. It's absolutely crazy. The collector's market for shoes is absolutely insane. There's so many different retail shoe resellers that I've seen that it's crazy. Like it's crazy how popular shoes are and how much money they can make you. Slip on sneakers are also another huge seller. These are super lucrative. People absolutely love to wear these. Me personally, I prefer slip-ons rather than the ones with shoelaces because it's just easier to get up and go. Next up, we have outdoor running shoes for men. And for this, I'm showing you Sheehan as our supplier. So on Sheehan, they have quite a good amount of different types of shoes. And contrary to popular belief, they don't only sell clothing for women. They sell literally everything. Sheehan, at this point, has become a supplier where you can find a little bit of almost everything. Now, one of the reasons to source your products from Sheehan is because they have some really good prices. Like look at these, these shoes are only at $8.15. These are just under $7 and these are just under $8. When it comes to running shoes, people like to purchase them so they can simply go running. And that's pretty much it. They're not really to impress anybody. They're not to go out to get down on dirty on the track and essentially get healthy. So because of that, a lot of people don't really want to spend premium prices for running shoes. People don't want to spend 120 or $150 for those. You can source these just under 10 bucks and you can sell them for 50 or $60. Steel Toe Boots are up next for all of those workers in the construction industry and these can be pretty expensive, especially if you buy brand name ones. So this is another reason why you can source these from Sheehan and sell them at a lower price. These are to get dirty and protect your feet. That's it. You have some that start at $40, some at $22 and on average, they're gonna be between $20 to $30 more or less. So taking some of these, you can also offer these for just under the crazy retail prices that others are offering them at and sell them for just about a hundred bucks, maybe even 80. Now for the most part, guys aren't going to be the best at purchasing multiple shoes.  Same goals for online shopping. They're gonna find what they want, purchase it and done. So one thing that you can do to actually start making a bit extra money, increase your average order value and upsell is simply by utilizing cross-selling techniques. Is simply add different apps to your Shopify store if that's what you're using. That can recommend different products. So when they're at the checkout page, you can say this belt would go perfect with this pair of shoes or this shirt would go perfect with these pairs of shoes. So that way when somebody's checking out, they can simply just see that one little part and they'll think, oh, you know what? That's not a bad idea and just add to cart. Next up, we have kid's shoes. Now when it comes to kid's shoes, people are gonna be buying a lot of these. Kids break their shoes. They lose their shoes somehow. Just don't ask me how it happens. Kids lose literally everything. Oh, ain't that the truth? When it comes to kid's shoes, you need to offer high quality, durable and comfortable shoes. One really good thing about kid's shoes is that this is even more evergreen than men and women's shoes. Kids are always gonna be outgrowing their shoes, sometimes multiple times a year. If they don't outgrow them, then they're probably gonna end up breaking them somehow and then the parents are gonna have to go buy another pair of shoes. Now one of the best suppliers when it comes to kid's shoes has to be Amazon.  So on there, you're gonna find everything that you need to start offering kid's shoes. And the first kid's shoe that we're gonna cover is the Girls Mary Jane Princess shoe. These are a very unique style and are very popular amongst little girls. These a lot of times are used either for hanging out and going out or for certain events. Ballet slipper flats are up next and these are one that you can actually create a specific store for. So you can create something like, let's say a ballet store or a dancing store where you offer multiple different types of accessories for dancers. On there, you can offer things like ballet shoes, different types of dancer's shoes and accessories to go along with it. But ballet is a very popular activity amongst kids, especially little girls. So that's what makes these a very lucrative business. This next one is for the boys out there. For the most part, girls are also gonna be enjoying these. But back in my day, we used to have heelies. Now, heelies were a particular type of shoe with a wheel on the heel. These would let you ride around everywhere you wanted and kids absolutely loved them. Nowadays, they have so many different versions that you can choose from that you can even start your own brand. You can find some of these with private labeling services on websites like AliExpress, Alibaba, CJ Dropshipping or you can go to the more generic route and just source them from Amazon. But there are so many different types of wheeled shoes, some that are gonna be specific like the heelies where they have the wheel and heels while others are gonna have the wheels more towards the center of the shoe. These are extremely popular amongst kids. Do not sleep on these.  As a quick tip for these, offer them in adult sizes. Don't just stick to kids for these. Nowadays, the parents that are purchasing these particular types of shoes more than likely are the same ones that we're using the heelies back in the day. So being able to reach out to somebody and hit them right in the nostalgia that is really gonna be a huge hit. That's something that can really easily convince somebody to purchase something. Nostalgia is a very powerful feeling. Take it from experience. Kids also love colors, which is why colorful slip-on shoes are a huge hit amongst kids as well. Especially slip-ons.   Pretty much looks like me. Also, there's a few different places, specifically schools, that require slip-on shoes, especially for the younger kids. Now, those were our top picks for shoes to dropship along with some of the best suppliers that you can source them from.

Okay, folks, welcome to Stock Watch Today. This is Bob Desmond and what we're gonna do on this video is that we're gonna go over the pre-market activity for this day, October the 27th, 2020, the pre-market activity of the overall stock market using the pre-market futures. Then we're gonna segue over to into our focus stock of the day, which is SAP, which had announced earnings on the 26th and the shares gapped down on earnings. And what we're gonna focus on in particular with SAP is the quality or the lack thereof of their earnings, where they stand relative to their peers in their industry group. Then to help answer the question of as to whether or not SAP is a buy, sell, or hold, we're gonna do some technical analysis doing a deep dive from a higher level view, monthly chart to weekly chart to daily chart to identify whether or not this is a stock that we'd want to buy now, or should we avoid? And then we'll leave off with some catalyst, which I believe might send the shares up higher. The question is, what timeframe? Will it be a short-term swing trade, or will it be a longer-term investment? So please take a moment, smash that like button, subscribe to the channel, and let's get to the pre-market activity. We'll begin with our focus stock, which is SAP. And SAP, you can see, has rallied off the lows of the close yesterday this morning. We closed out the day yesterday at 1.15 spot zero two per share. We were up over a dollar this morning, yet we're beginning to see signs of a fade. More to come on technical analysis later on in this commentary. So stick around, please. Before we talk about SAP, let's do a pulse check of the overall market, the US dollar. Up on the morning, it was strong yesterday. We're seeing higher lows, higher highs. No breakout though yet. Gold, gold is back down below the ever-critical 1900 mark. It looks weak. I went over this with members last night on market wrap that I'm concerned about gold. I'm concerned about the miners, especially with the dollar holding support and appearing as though it's gaining steam. For those not familiar, the dollar and gold generally trade inversely of one another. The S&P 500, flat on the session, a very bearish day yesterday. We go into this day with no deal out of Washington and the lack of a deal yesterday certainly walloped the overall market with the transports, particularly taking it on the chin along with energy. Copper, which has been a leader of late is now beginning to weaken up here, breaking down below support. Dr. Copper is a barometer for global growth and right now it's under pressure. I wouldn't say this in a downtrend by any stretch, but it's certainly under pressure. The Russell 2000, it was up earlier, now it's faded. No great shock here. Down nearly a quarter of percentage point, lower highs. And yesterday, actually I should say here, on the 21st, we began breaking down to lower lows. So small caps under a lot of pressure of late. The Nasdaq 100, they are up. After having broken down here on the 26th, they rallied back some, but now they're being stalled out at resistance. In short folks, this market needs stimulus. Let's go over to our focus stock SAP. I would be very careful of this market at current SAP on the 26th announced earnings in the pre-market and had its worst trading day in roughly 12 years with market cap wiped out of 35 billion in Euro terms, 41 billion in US dollar terms. The approximate cause of the performance of the shares in the third quarter was directly as a result of the lockdowns over in Europe, which are being reimplemented in many areas, in particular in Italy and in France. SAP is a German software maker focusing in on enterprise software, human resources, software, et cetera. Now, the articles that I've read with regard to SAP, and I'm certainly no expert on their business model or the inner workings of the company, I do have a higher level view of the sector and it's archaic, their business model. And I think this paragraph summarizes here fairly well, while customers pay considerable sums up front for SAP's on-premise software. That's old computing. Most payments for cloud subscriptions come down the line and have little doubt that this is the line that traders looked at and said, wow, we got to get out of this. As a result, the company is abandoning its medium-term profitability targets and warned that it will likely take longer than expected to recover from the pandemic. So their model is not working, despite the fact that you've had a lockdown due to the virus. And here's what's kind of concerning about the announcement SAP now expects to almost triple its cloud revenue. God, that's annoying, this pop-up. To triple its revenues over 22 billion euros by 2025. What that statement tells me is that they are way behind the curve to move towards cloud computing and net net, have little doubt that that's the crux, that's the proximate cause of their current weakness is that they are behind the curve. And that transition over to cloud computing is gonna impact their margins negatively by four to five percentage points. And they're expecting double-digit profitability after their transition in 2025. So a lot of work to be done here at this company, not being familiar with the management. We will take a look at their return on equity, which gives me a glimpse of the quality of their management. We'll be able to determine as to whether or not this is a management team that can execute on strategy. Let's get to some statistics on the company. This is off of investors.com, Investors Business Daily. It has a composite rating of 63, which puts it just above the middle of the pack. But as you drill down to the group leadership rank in the enterprise management software, they are ranked last in the group. So this is not an innovator. They are well behind the curve as that article implied. So this is somewhat of a validation. Now to the quality of management, their annual return on equity is outstanding. I mean, a number over 12, 15 is very good. 20 is really, really good. Management does own a chunk of the shares, just shy of 10%. We'd like to see that number creep up as these shares decline in value and they transition over and into a cloud-based business model. So I would keep an eye on management ownership. There's some room to move up here, considering the fact that they are expecting double-digit growth by 2025. If I were an insider, I saw us executing on our business plan, you know what? I'm buying the shares. That would be a forward-looking indicator. So keep an eye on this. Now let's segue over and into the technical analysis to identify where we've been to determine where we might be going, both long-term and short-term. So we're gonna begin with a monthly chart of SAP using TrendSpider. TrendSpider is our software which provides us automated technical analysis. It is my spell check for technical analysis. I use to validate as to whether or not my manual trend lines are accurate and it's great for beginners who are learning technical analysis. They're manually drawing their support and resistance levels. However, they want somebody to tap them on the shoulder to validate as to whether or not they are doing the right type of work. And all you need to do, draw your trend lines as I'm gonna do here. We're gonna talk about this event here. The market sent us a signal. But before I do that, let's finish off here. Okay, so these lines here, both the vertical upper band of the rising up trend channel, lower band of the rising up trend channel, horizontal support level at 141.44 and support level at 118.25 are manually drawn. Then I take my mouse, click a button, automated trend lines. And you can see that I'm pretty much on cue. TrendSpider picked up on one support level that I did not, I was focusing on a primary support level. This is an extrapolated out support level from prior highs. And that's the value of having TrendSpider. It's a really good tool. And you can see that on a monthly timeframe. And this is what I want to talk about. Let's clean this up a bit. We had broken out back in July. Very strong breakout became a bit overbought relative to what started standard deviation from Bollinger Band. And then in September, we failed after retesting the breakout point to hold support. We closed down below and back into this trading range.  And what you should learn from that, and this is what I teach members, is that when you see this expect at a bare minimum, a retracement back down to the lower band of support. And many times it fails. And sure enough, that's what happened yesterday when the shares crashed hitting support last seen back in May of 2020 at a low of 113 spot 33 before bouncing to recapture support at the 115 mark. And earlier folks, I said this is 118 support. It's actually 113 spot 25, my apologies for the confusion. So are the shares a buy at current? Well, we know we're at historical support. The question is, do we hold? To determine that, we need to do a deeper dive drilling down to the weekly timeframe. Now in a weekly timeframe, as we know it on a monthly look, we bounced off of historical support. I think we can overshoot further to the downside before putting together a brief rally. I'm gonna go to a chart in a moment that will illustrate why I believe the rally is going to occur fairly soon. However, given the prospects of the company longer term, meaning a transition to a cloud business model, I do not believe that the rally is sustainable. And that ultimately we're gonna be looking at a share price where I would be interested in it at or around, I know loans are not gonna wanna hear this. I would be looking for support at $90.79 to view it as a potential intermediate to a longer term investment. Because these shares are under clear distribution, their admitted timeframe for execution on their strategy and return to double digit growth is not until 2025. And we'll have many market corrections between now and then providing us an opportunity to get in down below $100 per share. And ultimately this may not even hold in this market environment. I mean, Europe is back under lockdowns yet again. Now looking at the share price from a very short term swing trade perspective, folks, we're oversold, we have RSI down below 20. We are trading down below, it's hard to see here, down below the third standard deviation Bollinger ban. This is a little bit better. I just changed the line colors. The lower ban in white here of the Bollinger ban, this is a three standard deviation, not a two standard deviation Bollinger ban. This is unsustainable. I believe that we are going to rally fairly soon. We may make a new daily lower low. We'll be looking for a bullish key reversal bar and quite possibly entering the trade to take advantage of a move up higher. But I believe ultimately that that rally will fail and we will roll over and proceed to make lower lows after putting in lower highs. Now what are the catalysts to send the shares up higher? Well, in the short term, it's the technicals. The, again, the downtrend at current is unsustainable. So if you're looking to short this stock, don't do it because those that are leaning into the short side or those shorts that have not covered their positions as of yet, they're gonna get a rude awakening fairly soon. As they begin to get squeezed out of their positions because technicians like me are looking at this saying, okay, these guys need to get punished because they didn't book profits. That being said though, I would not stick around long. I would book our profits fairly quickly and then move to the sidelines and then wait. We've already set up our alert. It's set for 30 days and we'll wait to see whether or not it comes down to our price point. But to invest in the stock, we need a discount. What else could help these shares move up higher? Admittedly, I'd have to say not much. I mean, it's yielding only 1.5%. So to think that anyone's gonna wanna take on the risk of owning the shares that are in a downtrend because remember, weak stocks tend to get weaker only to get paid 1.5%, it doesn't make sense. Now, what else could push the shares up higher? I think that taking a look at the short interest, we could put together a roughly four day short covering rally and I arrive at that number based upon the number of shares on average traded, which is 699,000. You divide that into the number of shares held short, which is roughly 2.5 million. You arrive at about 3.5 to four days worth of short covering. Obviously, this is not going to help keep the stock held aloft, so I would not use it as a rationale to invest in the shares for the long term. Now, if you're gonna buy it for the dividend, well, the earnings growth is fairly good. Now, it's gonna take it on the chin with the transition to cloud a bit, but these are respectable year over year EPS growth numbers. So the dividend should be safe. So to summarize, folks, short term, I am becoming very bullish on SAP because I do believe we're going to get an extreme oversold countertrend rally. Do I believe that that rally is sustainable? No, I do believe that we're gonna put in a lower high. Ultimately, we're going to roll over and we are going to break down to new lower lows. So short term, an interesting swing trade, which I'll be sending out a trade alert on to members, longer term, until the shares come to us, I would sell the countertrend rally and take that cash, move it to the sideline, and look for better endeavors. Folks, I did some commentary on Twilio earnings last night. You should see that link to the video appearing right now and take a look at my analysis of Snapchat when they were at extreme overbought levels and I called for a correction in the share price where we booked over a 4.5% profit to the short side yesterday. So in closing, please, if I can ask you to smash that like button, subscribe, thanks for watching.
