Hey everyone, welcome back to the YouTube video still looking at the Google capture the flag competition that just finished up a little bit of go on the last weekend Shout out to live overflow who was willing to take a look at this game with me and hopefully he'll be releasing some cool stuff Very very soon to cover some of the challenges that he took a look at and I kind of took a look at with him But he was a real rockstar on so check out his YouTube channel if you haven't already, but let's jump in This next challenge I want to cover and the beginner's quest is another miscellaneous challenge at the top path That's called media DB It's a miscellaneous challenge as I've already said looks like there's a custom database stuff You can read out the kind of the prompt, but it has a netcat connection And it also has an attachment so we might be getting a binary getting a script or program We can actually take a look at here. So Let's create a directory for this stuff And work with it media DB Let's create a connect script So I can netcat into that real easily Mark that to connect And let's download this attachment gctf media db cool It's pretty easy to tell that this is another zip archive. Yep as expected Um media dot zip or whatever call it whatever we want. Let's unzip that and we have media db Oh, it's a python script. Okay, cool. Let's see that in Sublime Bang here we go Python 2.7 you can tell from this your bang line Importing sequel light. Okay.  Let's actually do this connect thing Uh, I guess I don't know why I did that because now I actually do want to know what these functions do Let's let's read the source code Um Opening oa token as file descriptor flag equals. Okay. So flag is the contents of this oa token file and Okay, the connection the database is running in memory needs whatever Um, okay, and the oa tokens is what has the flag So that table oa tokens has the flag for us and we have media Which actually has artists and song And we have function that will print stuff out for us. We'll have the Functions to print out a playlist. Okay, it prints out the banner It sends that along And then there's a big loop that gets the banner for us gets the menu anyway Um reads in our input and then determines what we've entered the choice So, okay, so if it's anything in that menu, if not, it will obviously tell us no Like six Okay, eights blah blah blah that will determine if we have the correct input and if one If we're asking for artist name reads in a song name and it runs a sequel statement here insert into media with double quotes And it's using a format. So python format is Not as bad as concatenating, but it is still putting that putting our our arguments in their raw So but that's wrapped in double quotes here That is inserting into the database though That's good to note other artists to what is that option? so add a song And play from an artist insert into Select these things Select uses single quotes here. Okay, that's peculiar select from Song uses single quotes number four Select artist song from media where artist is this single quotes Huh, and that's all okay. Otherwise is bye. So that's peculiar because we're inserting where we have double quotes as our barrier But we're selecting where we having single quotes as our barrier. So We could mess around with that because We could we could just use a double quotes or single quotes to Like break out of that, but it looks like they're doing a good job to replace those characters like These lines here artists replace or song replace, etc, etc um Hmm But because of that discrepancy where we have double quotes on one side and single quotes on the other we can Insert into the database with single quotes breaking and We can have sequel injection just like that. Let's uh Let's try. Let's let's give that a go Um, let's kill sublime text now that we have an idea and attack factor. Um, let's connect and add a song artist name john wins right just for Just to see the proof of concept. Okay. Yeah, we can add steps to the database. So let's add artist name john And then Oh artist is where they're actually if I if I were to shuffle songs artists is what they're actually querying for So song name can be subscribe. How about that? Whatever? For wins, etc, etc add song. Let's do john um Single quote union select one two Because what are they what were they selecting? Song and artists, right? So let's have a comment there And anything for song name now if I were to run this Oh, looks like we get two by one Looks like our union union select worked So we can and now that we know that that works for us Let's try and add a song where we can do john single quote union select Select o-auth token from o-auth tokens and then two Comment comment because o-auth token had the flag in that table o-auth tokens is where that was stored So song name can be lol subscribe again Because sequel injection super cool Um, let's shuffle the artist and just like that we get our flag. So neat Let's steal that I think is a pretty interesting catch checking out the quotes that it's using Um, and we can get around that since we that was the discrepancy between double quote and a single quote Um, if you wanted to you could write a get flag script for this I'm not going to go through that process, but we Since we're connecting with the service. I would use pwn tools Send it that exploit quote on quote or send it that technique or that bug take advantage of that vulnerability and I don't know print out just your flag sweet Let's uh mark this as complete And we're done with the meaty db challenge. Thank you guys for watching. Hope you're enjoying these videos Uh, check out live overflow if you haven't already. Hopefully we can do more content together again soon Uh, at least be still interacting still talking because he's an awesome youtuber And uh, I'm really happy to be getting getting together with him Hey, if you'd like this video, please press that like button Uh, if you'd like to maybe leave me a comment Let me know what you think what else you'd like to see what I can do better with please do If you're willing to subscribe and I'm grateful for it. So see you soon


Yeah, I'm wearing a sushi top in honour of my day. Hey guys, welcome back to the average. So I had this amazing idea to draw 31 mermaids in a day and I regret everything. You know it's mermaid, basically the idea of mermaid is to draw a mermaid every day for 31 days and at the end of the month you have 31 drawings of mermaids. I love mermaids so I thought yes, yes, you know what? I can do this, I can make this challenge where I'll draw 31 mermaids in a day. It's going to be totally fine and also can I add that I didn't do it in a day, I did it in an afternoon because I had all my other work to do in the morning so then I started in the afternoon and all I felt was pain. Feel pain. Anyway, let's roll the footage. Okay guys, buckle up your seat belts because I was about to say we're in for a wild ride but that's not true at all, we're just in for a long sort of car journey over the mountains and far away. I'm sorry, what, what am I saying? Okay, this video is going to be fairly long because I put many hours into drawing these millions of mermaids. They know there's not millions, okay, it's an exaggeration, I can exaggerate, it's fine. There's 31 mermaids and then I think I drew two extra just to kind of round off the image. So what I started out doing was thumb nailing out some poses for mermaids that I was going to draw. I looked online at like lots of poses and things and just drew them out. I really enjoyed that. That was a really fun part of the process. Then I tested some paper and because I wanted to use this like cream paper but it was really weird, it acted really weird with the water so instead I used this watercolor paper. I wanted to use like free sheets so I would have a clear definition of each area for each mermaid so I marked them all out and measured out how many squares per each mermaid and I was going to use three different sheets and draw it out like that. Then I realized, no, I don't want that. I want all these mermaids bunched up together because that's why I'm doing this.  A gazillion mermaids just like bam, bam, bam in your face. I just decided to space them out all individually around this one sheet of paper and I do think actually gridding out the area was useful because it made me see how much space each one was taking up. So yeah, I started out by just sketching out all these mermaids with my mechanical pencil that I'm actually really in love with. I used to have these cheap plasticky ones and then I just found this pencil laying about the house. I was like, yeah, I'm going to use this one and it is beautiful and never went apart ways with it because I really like it. It's super sturdy. Yeah, that's enough of a love story to my mechanical pencil, I think. We'll just move on. So what I was doing here was just copying each mermaid from the booklet. I numbered them all out and then I was trying to figure out if I had drawn them already. So I was ticking them off as I went.  I was like, this is fine. I'm going to just draw lots of mermaids all around each other and they all fit and it will be fine. But I realized that a lot of some of the spacings I had a little tiny bit of issues with but at the end what I did was just scanned it and jigged it around in Photoshop so some of the spacing was fixed that way. Whilst I was doing this, I was listening to Jake Parker and Co's new podcast called Free Point Perspective and it's just basically free perspectives of different artists talking about freelance illustration and it's a really good podcast and I was just zoning out, listening to this, agreeing with everything and hoping that I'm doing the right thing along with what they're saying because they all have been lecturers and stuff and they're obviously all very successful in their fields so it's good to listen and take advice like that. I think you always have to be open to advice. You don't necessarily have to take it I think it's good to realize when some advice is really good and some advice is really bad and for instance in this podcast I think all the advice is really good and there's different opinions within it as well so you really get like a round picture of everything which is really handy so I recommend go listening to them I will link that down below if you're interested in just listening to that and doodling along whatever or you know you can just stay here and watch me draw these mermaids until my hands bleed and you can chat. I wanted to do a longer video because obviously like I said this took time and then I just wanted to chat to you guys because I feel like that's what I like watching I like it when people talk and then I can just draw along and listen to what they are thinking and feeling and stuff so the other day I looked on Goodreads and I realized that my book had two stars from somebody I don't know why but it just really got to me and obviously everyone's entitled to their opinion and I will take critique but this person just kind of left two stars and didn't say anything and I was just I wish I could just speak to them and that is a big no-no in the writing community as I don't ever question but I wasn't wanting to question it like why have you done this? I'm really mad at you your wire books are amazing I like to question it because I would like to know why if that makes sense because I think if somebody has a bad opinion of your work there's a reason for that and I want to know the reason so I can improve upon it but also it could just be that people just are mean and they're just doing a drive-by kind of hate your stuff which happens as well but obviously I don't think that's the case I think maybe just somebody didn't like it the point of me saying this is that I put basically my heart and soul into that book and then I always get really anxious if somebody says they're reading it or nervous like I don't want you to read it when I should be proud of it even if it isn't perfect, I should be proud of that but I wrote a book not everyone does that right so it just got me really down which is really really annoying because I know whenever somebody critiques my art or anything else that I do I kind of take it and I'm like okay yeah sure I'll improve but this was, I don't know I feel like because writing is such a personal thing I don't know if it's more personal than drawing because maybe it's just I'm more used to being critiqued on my drawing yeah that's basically what happened to me and I'm trying to learn to push on past it and not let it stop me because I should be proud of what I've done and keep going and still I'm still enjoying writing the other two books so whatever if that one person didn't like it it doesn't really change anything does it? it doesn't mean that I'm going to fail it doesn't mean that I'm going to become an amazing author it's just one person's opinion and we let people's opinions really get to us sometimes but we should just say no, bye I'm going to do what I like and I'm going to do it as much as I like and just because you didn't like it doesn't mean anything you know, don't let other people affect you so much I guess is what I'm trying to take away from this but also let them affect you because critique is good there we go opinions by step I'm aware that that was a really contradictory lesson but hopefully you kind of get what I'm trying to say critique is good but people who are just trashing on things to just trash on them is bad you've got to know the difference and also sometimes people who are just hateful even if they're hateful sometimes they have good critiques to give and anyway, yep but don't let this put you off I'm not taking anything I've done because honestly I feel like that's a really meaningful interaction to me because it helps me grow and it means that you just want to be honest with me and I really like that and I appreciate people taking the time and effort to be like hey, you could fix this and if you work on that then because you just evolved to become a better artist, writer, whatever is that you're doing I had some beat readers for my book and one of them was really, really kind a detailed analysis and breakdown of stuff within the book and a couple of sentences that she didn't like and a couple of sentences she did and the character development and I really thought that was super amazing of her and she's basically the only beat reader who helped me out if you don't know what, I think it's beta beta or beta if you don't know what a beta reader is it's basically somebody I give my book an advance copy of for free and they'll kind of critique it and tell me what's happening but I gave it out to probably about 10 people and she was the only one who kind of came back and a few other people were just like, yeah, I love it and then nothing, so it's like okay, if anybody wants to check out my book it's down below in the description and it's on Amazon, it's just a Kindle book it's like 90% or something I'm not sure but it's about a girl who runs away from home she just wants to get away from a personal tragedy that happened to her and she goes to join a school of battle mages because she's like, oh flip, yeah, I want to be cool like these guys but she doesn't have the powers that they have so she kind of has to hide that and get away with it and yeah the story unravels from there so oh, there's also like these soul twins in it you have to discover your soul twin activate your powers and stuff she discovers her soul twin so that flips everything upside down of her beliefs that she didn't have powers yeah, yeah, yeah, it gets better it gets better from there, I hope, anyway yeah, back to Mermaid, sorry for that massive tangent now I'm just inking them out, I took ages drawing them and then inking them and took probably even longer I was trying to be really careful and I was really aware that if I made one mistake, 10 Mermaids later, that would be really obvious and I would have messed up this whole piece, I was really a little bit scared of this one for the first time in a while but then I got used to it and I had fun with it even though I said it was really exhausting because it was I think by the time I got near the end of finishing the painting process I was really tired and I wanted to say like no I'm done with it, like I'll finish it tomorrow but I knew in my head that I wanted that Mermaid Mermaid Day title, I was like I need that title for YouTube, that'll be fun like everyone will like that, that's a cool title right, I want to do it in a day that's my challenge, so I forced myself to finish this but it worked out because I really liked the end results even though it was hard work I mean it wasn't so much hard as it was just a long project where I had to chip away slowly at this rock and make a statue, I don't know what that analogy was about yeah it was just long and tiring and I think I probably spent maybe 3-5 minutes on each mermaid times that by 33 mermaids I did all together then you can come up with a time I'm not gonna do the mask cause I'm terrible at masking, I'll be bothered ok it was really fun to colour these I really enjoyed it, I just did simple colours at first I was trying to do some gradients and shading and then Chris my boyfriend who's also an artist was like no I don't think you should shade them, I think they look nice they're just you know these kind of raw colours and I agreed with him I think but then I had started shading some already so I didn't want it to look weird that some were shaded and then well like 10% of them were shaded and then the rest weren't so I decided to do a little bit of shading here there and gradients where I could and stuff so it took a long time I tried to make each mermaid quite individual as well I realised that drawing 32 mermaids with the same face same skin type same body was gonna be pretty boring and nobody wants that everyone wants diversity right so I tried to make different ones it was quite difficult because I think it got into the rhythm of drawing them and then you get that same face syndrome happening and I was like no I don't want that to happen I was doing a lot of details and trying to differentiate them in some way and not have mermaids with the same sort of colour tails picking the colours actually got really difficult half way through because I was like I've used this colour scheme already I can't use it again and purple hair, purple tails purple everything and I was like no I need to stop using purple even though it's my favourite and the green because in my head mermaids have green tails I think it's just little mermaid totally brainwashing me but yeah in my head they do so I was trying to stem away from that that grey one with the blonde hair I remember we used to go to this restaurant when I was little and it used to have this mermaid painting because it was like a fish restaurant we used to go to when it was on the beach and then it was a painting of the beach that we were on but there was a mermaid there when I was a kid used to be like it's real somebody saw a mermaid and then they painted them so that one sort of based off that one because I vividly remember that painting in my head anybody used to play mermaids when they were little they used to love it I used to love swimming FYI I nearly joined like a national swim team and stuff like that it was something that I was really going to follow when I was a teenager and then I just gave it up because I'm lazy and also I didn't like it so much when I was a teenager it got just too competitive it wasn't it about the swimming anymore it was about just exhausting yourself and being better than everyone and trying to do as many lengths as possible in one day and it just it kind of gets boring, tiring after a while I feel like that's kind of who I am though I get really tired of stuff and then I want to start something completely different and then a few months later I want to go back to the thing that I did before and it's just always a circle of me I want to do YouTube, I want to do writing I want to do comics but it's all things that I want to do if that makes sense to anybody let me know if anybody else is like that painting these took a long while but I really enjoyed it it was really therapeutic I really wish that I had left maybe the skin of some of them the white of the paper because I think that looks really cool and I also wish that I had scanned these mermaids in before I coloured them in so then I could have done them digitally as well just to see how that would have been or maybe I could have put it up for you guys to colour in if you wanted to I think this worked out for now but I think I've got the hook of drawing lots of things drawing lots of things at an extent I think I've got the hook of drawing lots of similar things on a page I've seen that Dina and Casey have been doing like their ants and Dina's been doing her little homes with loads of detail in them so both of those things have lots of detail that can take a lot of time don't think that these were as much effort as those other pieces that they have done but I can kind of see being hooked into doing something with a lot of detail it's just fun and therapeutic and you just see the work ahead of you and you just sit down and you get on with it and it feels nice and good I don't know, you guys have anything you're working on that you know is going to take a long time but it's not daunting it's just more like enjoyable the paint by numbers thing you used to do as a kid or those scratch off things where you would just sit and do something with your hands we're coming to the end of the painting nearly and I hope that I've spoken enough about the actual piece I wanted to do lots of different diversity mermaids as I said different shapes, different expressions originally I had this idea of basing them off kind of the Met Gala outfits this year but then I thought I would just have a lot of Catholic mermaids so maybe I'll do my Met Sona though in the future because I love looking at Met photos I think it's a time where rich people can explore doing these crazy outfits and I think if you don't go all out at the Met then you're crazy and I think there's a great opportunity for a lot of wealth to go into creativity and be put on display because I think for instance the designs of the outfits are phenomenal most of the time and it's really intriguing to see people what they do with the theme and stuff if you don't know what the Met Gala is basically it's just this big fashion event where celebrities can wear grandiose couture and it's just awesome to see these amazing outfits that are just completely over the top they're really great to look at and pull inspiration for drawing and I want to do my Met Sona for sure because it's really fun to put yourself in a designer's shoes because I'm an illustrator I've never designed fashion or I like looking at fashion but I don't think I'm very good with fashion putting myself into that design position would be quite fun even if it's just for one day and designing a completely insane outfit that probably costs more than I'll ever earn in my lifetime would be really fun so the painting took ages the drawing took ages and the penciling took ages the challenges of this project were to make sure I had a final piece with 31 mere mains that I actually like making them diverse, making them bright and colourful making them different in the sense of shape and character design and basically sitting down to do it from start to finish was also very tiring and challenging and the good thing about this project is that it forced me to draw out a lot of character designs that I wouldn't have usually done just for whatever reason it's really helped me practice faces poses, drawing mermaids of course and colouring and using the materials that I've used it's a great practice piece I think that was a really advantageous project and I highly suggest you guys having a go at it because even though it's painful maybe you can do it so yeah, that's the finished product and I hope you guys enjoyed it let me know at the end I'll show each mermaid individually let me know which one is your favourite and that'll be cool, I've numbered them all so, simple so that's it, that's the final project please let me know what you think which one was your favourite and if there's a lot of the same favourites then I might redraw one again in a larger scale just to you know, give myself more pain and horrible horrible suffering sorry please like and subscribe for more content and I will see you next time, bye


Chromebooks have come a long way since their days of being class clowns. Those clowns were clunky, underpowered, and frustrating to use. Now, modern Chromebooks can be the teacher's pet. They participate in class, complete all assignments, and are ready to help out whenever needed. This is the Chromebook Flex5i, an affordable Chromebook sent to me by Lenovo. I'd like to show you these settings I positively have to customize right away when moving into a new Chromebook. I first turn up the screen brightness. No need to strain my eyes trying to see the screen. Screen brightness affects battery life, but this Chromebook has plenty of life. My eyesight isn't what it used to be. I increased the cursor size, making it easier to see on the display. I also changed the touchpad speed. I like my mouse to zip pretty fast across the screen. I'm used to reverse scrolling, so I change the scrolling direction. Now dragging down on the trackpad of two fingers scrolls upward, like what happens when you pull down on a touchscreen. I prefer my computer to lock when I walk away from it. When I set up the Flex5i, it asked me if I wanted to turn on lock to leave. If I move away from my computer, the screen will lock automatically. Now I do set it so that I can enter a pin instead of having to type in my ridiculously secure Google password. If I don't turn on lock to leave, I can use the keyboard shortcut of the launch key and L to lock the screen. I can unlock by touching the fingerprint reader. Yes, this Chromebook has a fingerprint reader. The Chrome extensions I have already installed on another computer follow me to the new one. If they didn't, the most important one to me is Digo. It's an old website where I've been tagging bookmarks since 2006. Changing those default settings work better for me. Let's look at ways the Chromebook Flex5i has helped me out. Modern Chromebooks charge with USB-C. That's the charging port that so many devices use nowadays. So I can use the charger I have with me or is already in the room. The Flex5i has one USB-C on the left side and one on the right side. This is brilliant because I can plug the charging cable into either side. Since I work in many different classrooms, it's nice that I can plug in on the side that makes the most sense. This computer has one USB type A port. My presenter remote uses this type of port, so I don't need an adapter. It plugs directly in. I do need an adapter to mirror or extend my screen to an HDMI TV or projector. Lenovo makes an adapter, but I think any USB-C to HDMI adapter works. I can plug the adapter into the port on either side of the computer. A Chromebook can either extend the display, which uses it like a second monitor. Or it can mirror, which duplicates what's on the computer screen onto the second screen. As a teacher, I often want to mirror. Other times, I want something different on my computer screen, like presenter notes, or I might want to check something on my computer while I have something else showing on the screen for the class. It's easy to toggle between mirroring and extending with the keyboard shortcut of control and the display key. That display key is really nice to have, pressing it without holding control down, hides Chrome's toolbars and tabs. Students don't need to see all this when I'm mirroring my screen for them, so it's great to have the ability to streamline what's shown with a press of a button. Another handy button is the screen recording button. Pressing this brings up a toolbar where I can choose between a screenshot or screen recording. My shot or recording can be full screen, a selection, or a window. For recordings, I can choose to record the microphone and or camera. I click the screen to take the shot or recording. It's saved into my downloads folder unless I set it to go somewhere else. Screenshots and screen recordings are built into the Chrome operating system, no extension and no app is required. The Flex5i can flip around and go into tablet mode, and the Flex5i can use Lenovo's USI pen for precise writing. I like to use Canvas whiteboard and mirror what I do on the whiteboard for students to see on the classroom screen. It has an infinite canvas, so I can zoom and scroll and never run out of space. Also in Canva, I can upload a PDF and write on it. Again, great when mirroring. As a substitute teacher, I often find myself taking a photo of a student work page so I can write on it. And if the room has a Chromecast, I can roam around cord free while showing my screen. Now I want to personally tell you more about the Chromebook Flex5i. The keyboard lights up. This not only looks cool, but is great for working in a darkened room. The stylus pen has two cool settings. It can be used as a laser pointer on any screen, or it can be a magnifier. Unfortunately, the laser pointer and magnifier do not show up in a screen recording. The Chromebook Flex5i can run Android apps. That opens up a lot of possibilities. But really, the Flex5i is great for using Google Workspace. I create drawing lessons and challenges for students called ShapeGrams. I created this entire challenge on the Chromebook Flex5i. The keyboard was nice to use, the trackpad was zippy, and the screen was bright. And I had plenty of battery power. There are lots more ways a Chromebook, and particularly the Chromebook Flex5i, can be your teacher's pet. This Chromebook works hard. So hard, in fact, it can get quite hot to have directly on my lap. And there's a bit of a fan noise sometimes. I like to think of it as, purring. It's a small price to pay for having a teacher's pet that happily does so much for me.


The House of Representatives at her committee has threatened to summon the attorney general of the Federation, Abu Bakr Malami, and all the top government officials over the alleged loss of $2.4 billion from a legal sale of 48 million barrels of crude oil. Malami, the finance minister, Zaynab Ahmed and others had failed to appear before the committee chaired by Mack Miller on Wednesday. They were invited to participate in the committee's probe of inflows from recoveries, from whistleblowers and expenditures. The committee, however, said it is given the appointees one last opportunity to appear before it and speak on inflows from recoveries from whistleblowers. Chairman of the committee disclosed the documents from the accountant general, show that payments have been made to whistleblowers and recoveries from whistleblowers, but no evidence to show that those monies were expended in accordance with the relevant laws.

J.P.L.L.O. The Jello Program starring Jack Benny with Mary Livingston and Phil Harris and his orchestra. The orchestra opens a program with Fine and Dandy. June is the month of weddings and here's a special hint for June brides. In planning your first menus, have Jello often for dessert. For all men like everybody else, enjoy Jello's extra-rich fruit flavor. You can serve Jello in hundreds of different ways. In salads as well as desserts. And on each package you'll find one or more helpful new Jello recipes. And here's another grand thing about Jello. It's so easy to make. Well, it takes no time at all to turn out a dessert that looks as if you'd worked hours over it. Remember that Jello is a great help in making your menus deliciously different. And always keep a supply of Jello on hand. But when you order Jello, be sure you get the real thing. Genuine Jello. Look for the big red letters on the box. They spell Jello. Fine and Dandy played by the orchestra.  Sir, Jello again, this is Jack Benny talking and thanks Don, thanks very much for the compliment, if it was. Well, Jack, I couldn't help observing how rapidly you've improved since your illness. Really, it's amazing. Oh, there's nothing unusual about it, Don. We, Benny's, are a sturdy family. You know, very unlolly poppy. Ah, yes, Jack, you certainly are the picture of health. I feel good too, and you know what's been doing it, don't you? Plenty of fresh air and exercise. Well, that's news to me. Do you really go in for exercise? Oh, passionately. Why, I'm on my third rowing machine. By the way, Don, when, where are the next Olympic Games? In Japan in 1940. Tee, I wish they were sooner. You know, Jack, I had no idea you were such an athlete. Oh, yes, yes. Well, tell me, Jack, just what is your formula in the pursuit of muscular stimulation? Well, I, what was that, Don? I say, what do you do for exercise? Oh, oh. Well, Don, the first thing in the morning I fling back the covers and jump out of bed. Then I do my breathing exercises. What's that? I smell my breakfast.  Hello, Jack, what are you fellas talking about? The exercises that have been building him up. Oh, exercises. I train her. You have? What does he do for you, Kenny? Oh, he takes me for a run through the park, and then he makes me jump through hoops, and after that he makes me balance the ball on my nose. Well, Kenny, you've got an animal trainer. What? An animal trainer. Well, he certainly did wonders for me. He did, huh? He should see me bury a bone. Kenny, Kenny, you're positively silly. Oh, yeah? Well, I've got a smart brother and he's starving to death. Oh. Well, well, I surrender. Oh, say, Don, what's the matter with Phil? He's standing over there by himself. Why doesn't he join us? Well, you know, Jack, he's probably embarrassed about that wristwatch incident last week. Oh, well, he should be, giving me a watch for Christmas present and not keeping up the payments. Oh, you should worry. Yeah, say, what's a watch to me? I can always call up Central and find out what time it is. Sure.  Build a booth around it and nobody will see it. That's right, that's right. And I can hang a phone book on my ear.  Well, if I were you, Jack, I wouldn't be angry at Phil. He didn't mean it. Oh, I'm not mad at him, Don. I love Phil. But it's the principle of the thing. After all, you know, I've done a lot for that rat. Well, take it from me, Jack. He feels pretty bad about it. Bad enough to buy me a new watch? No. Oh, hello, Phil. Oh, hello. I didn't see you in back of that fist. How are you? I'm all right. And I want to tell you, Jack, I'm sorry about that watch. Oh, forget about it, Phil. You know the old saying, easy come, you can't keep it. Yes, sir. Hello, Jack. Hello, Don. Hello, Phil. Hello, Kenny. Hello, Mary. Hello, Mary. Hello, Joe. Joe, who's Joe? My uncle, he's listening in. Oh. Well, Mary, Mary, do you notice any change in me? How do I look? You look swell, Jack. Gee, you're so tan and muscle-bound. Muscle-bound? Why, Don told me I look better than I ever did.  Is that so? Jack's full of nickels. Listen, Mary, Don noticed a great improvement in me, and it's because I've been taking a lot of exercise. That's what I'm looking for. Oh, I see. I see. I see. I see. I see. I see. I see. I've been taking a lot of exercise. That's what's doing it. That's nothing. I exercise, too, every morning. You do. Well, tell me, Mary. Get this, Don. Tell me, Mary, what is your formula in the pursuit of muscular stimulation? Do you want a specific retort, or shall I generalize? Where? Toy with that, big boy. Isn't she clever tonight? I'd give my annuity for a snappy answer. There's a phone. I'll take it. Hello? Yes? It's for you, Mary. For me? Hello? Yes? Who is it, Mary? Quiet, nosy. Uh, yes, this is Miss Livingston. Oh, hello, Mr. Shower. Yes? Well, I'll try. Hold the line, please. Jack is Mr. Shower, my producer at Paramount. What does he want? He wants me to come over to the studio right away and shoot an important scene. Can I go? Well, yes, of course. Well, yes, if it's important, Mary. Thanks. Hello, Mr. Shower? It's okay, Toots. I'll be right over. So long. Toots? That's his first name. His first name is Melville. Well, the secretary calls him Toots. Oh. You'd better run along, Mary. After all, it's your first picture. Oh, Mary, before you go, I'd like to ask you a favor. Sure, what is it, Don? If there's a spot in your picture where you can mention, well, of course, I don't want you to be obvious about it, but if you can just squeeze in a word about those six delicious flavors, I'd appreciate it. I'll do the best I can. Yeah, but be subtle about it, Mary, you know. Anything else, Don? Well, let me see. Oh, what's the name of your picture, Mary? It's called This Way, Please. Gee, I'd appreciate it if you could get them to change it to This Way Jell-O. Yes, Mary, it only means changing one word, you know. But don't be obvious about it. I'll see what I can do. Hey, This Way Jell-O doesn't make sense. Hey! But run along, Mary, and good luck on your picture. So long, Mary. Goodbye. Hey, Jack. What? I just thought of something very funny. What is it? Well, come on now, tell me, what is it? Oh, no, I'm saving it for my picture. Oh. Gee, I can hardly wait to see it. Play, Phil. The dance played by our rollicking rhythm rascals and directed by that eminent American maestro, Mr. Phil I.G. Harris. Thanks, Jack, but what's the I.G. for? Indian giver. Wow! I certainly sprung the trap that time. You should have been in it. Hey. I thought you went to Paramount. I came back for that joke. Goodbye. Say, Phil, do you think that gag was worth coming back for? No. And say, Jack, I don't want to harp on this, but I've been feeling kind of low all week. You're not really angry about that watch, are you? No, Phil, of course not, and don't worry about it. Let me tell you something, Phil. There's something greater than the material things in life. Something beyond and above earthly possessions. And, Phil, I value your friendship more than all the watches in the world. Jack, you're kidding. I sure am. Well, to show you my heart's in the right place, I'll buy you a present next week that'll make up for everything. Well, get me something I can nail down. Or at least something I can eat. All right, I'll get you a plunk steak. That's plank. No, it's plunk.  Fine friend. Phil, you're the kind of a guy who could split up Damon and Pithias. Are they still running around together? I don't know. I missed Winchell's broadcast. I wish somebody would knock on the door or something. What a coincidence. Come in. Hi, you buck. Yes. Same here. Say, you're quite a stranger. Haven't been around in almost a month. What happened? Well, I started down here several times, buck. Then I thought, oh, there's no use putting on my shoes just for that. Why? Is that so much trouble? Well, I don't mind putting them on. It's the buttonin' that gets me. Say, I hear you were pretty sick. Yes, Andy. And I was kind of disappointed that you didn't send me anything. Well, I was going to send you flowers, but Ma said, better wait and see which way it goes. Well, I feel all right now. You know, I've been exercising. You ought to try it. Buck, by the time I get through plowing and chopping wood, I ain't got no time for it. Oh, naturally, naturally. About the only real exercise I get is helping Ma curry puff to bed. Why, is the old boy that lazy? Yep, most every night he comes home dead lazy. I get it. Say, where's Mary? I'm over at Paramount working on my picture. Go away, Mary. What were you saying, Andy? I said, where's Mary? Oh, she had to go over to Paramount to work on her picture. She did? You know, I'm working over there, too. I'm with Bing Crosby. Oh, you and Bing, huh? Yeah, say, buck, do you think two crooners in one picture is overdoing it? No, Andy. No, you and Bing don't sing anything alike. I don't know. He's coming along pretty fast. Well, I wouldn't worry about it. Say, Andy, have you got any cute girls working with you? Mighty cute, Phil, but they ain't cooperating with the darn. They ain't, eh? Well, maybe they prefer Bing Crosby. After all, he's a lady's man. That's what I told you. Two crooners is too much. There's something to that, huh? But there's one thing I can't understand, buck. What's that?   I know, but it gets pretty monotonous hearing them say, oh, honey, to Bing and Ham on ride a mead. Well, cheer up, Andy. You may work yourself up the chicken salad. But that's pictures for you. You know, I'm starting on one myself pretty soon. It's called Artists and Models. You got a good part? Only the leading role, Andy. Say, Jack, what did you say the name of your picture is? Artists and Models. Artists and Models? Why, they've been shooting that for six weeks. They have? Well, I better get over there immediately. Yeah, if you want to get in it. Say, maybe I better call them up and see about it. What's the number of Paramount, Andy? Have they got a telephone? Why, certainly. Shucks, and I've been sending. Carry your pigeon. Give me that phone. Operator, get me the Paramount Studio Hollywood. I bet they're trying to put something over on me.  Hello? I want to speak to Mr. Gensler, please. Yeah.  Hello, Mr. Gensler? This is Jack Benny. Yeah. Say, what about my picture, Artists and Models? Oh, all right, then. What about Artists and Models? Well, I understand you've been shooting it for six weeks. When are you going to get to me? I'm not worried. What? Well, don't I come out of the barrel at all? Oh, at the finish, I see. Oh, well, all right, Mr. Gensler, goodbye. What did he say, punk? Well, he said he's saving me for the climax of the picture. The important part is right at the end, you know. That's why they have the finale there. That's a great idea, Jack.  Yeah, that's what he said. No matter how good the picture is, you've got the personality, ability and magnetism to give it that terrific final punch. You can put it over with a bang. Phil, you're kidding. I sure am. Now, wait a minute, Mr. Harris. That's my career you're kicking around. Yeah. Well, Buck, I gotta... I gotta leave you now, Buck. I'm due back at the studio myself. Say, Andy, I think I'll go along with you. I'm kind of anxious to see how Mary's doing. Why don't I go along, Jack? Not at all, Don. You want to join us, Phil? I'd like to, but who will lead the orchestra? Oh, come on, after 37 weeks, they're not going to start looking at you now. Okay. Can I come along, too, Jack? No, Kenny, you stay here and do your song. You can join us later. Come on, fellas. Come on, Kenny. Oh, guys, they all left. Oh, well, what are you going to sing tonight, Kenny? I'm going to sing I Know Now from the Singing Marine.

Now, Mary, Mary, get in there and show them what you can do. Put everything into it.  Come on, now. This time, we're going to get it. Ready?  Oh, what is this hollow existence? Oh, what is this hollow existence? What is life but a shell? I may have minion jets, but what good has it done me? Money! Money! Money! That can't buy happiness. Hey, bud! Shh! Quiet, Andy. I crave affection. I'm hungry for love. I'm starving. Again for sandwiches! Ice cream is a great American specialty, and here's how to make the finest ice cream you ever tasted. Make it with Jell-O ice cream powder, a new improved product which makes delicious, creamy ice cream right at home. Ice cream made this quick, easy way is more economical, too, for you actually use less cream and get more ice cream. You make it right in the freezing trays of your refrigerator, or you can use an ordinary hand-freezer and get the same delicious results. All you do is combine Jell-O ice cream powder, some milk, some cream and sugar, and you'll soon have a quarter-and-a-half of smooth, mellow ice cream. A quarter-and-a-half, mind you, or twice as much as you get when you use most other such products. Jell-O ice cream powder comes in five flavors, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, lemon, and maple. And there is unflavored, too, so that you can make any other flavor you prefer. Serve ice cream made with Jell-O ice cream powder for dessert soup. It's bound to make a big hit with everybody. Ask your grocer tomorrow for Jell-O ice cream powder. The 37th program in the new Jell-O series will with you again next Sunday night at the same time. Say, Mary, I'm surprised at you. When I make pictures, I'm not so temperamental. Neither am I. This was your idea. Say, Jack, were we really at Paramount tonight? No, Kenny, the whole thing was only an illusion. Then I might as well tear up this phone number. Yes, Bill. Shucks, do I have to tear up these sandwiches, too? Quick! Quick! The National Broadcasting Company.


The research goes back to experiments in the 1950s with a process known as parabiosis, which means combining two organisms into a single physiological system. In heterochronic parabiosis experiments, the circulatory systems of young and old mice were connected so they shared their blood. This rejuvenated the old mice, but that could be because they had access to the younger organs.
