Chef Shea Bear here and we're in front of the camera, but kind of behind it because this is the star of the show today We're going to check this out that was sent in from Miss Lottie doll and Captain eggbeard. Yeah, which Monkey calls him. What is it Colonel egghead? So let's get to this a picture. Well, I can't read that because there's no pictures so Wait, there's some pictures there access is a recipe book recipe guide with the different things you're going to make We're just going to make what that is right there. We're going to make an egg Some bacon which I've already cooked hence the pan sitting here and some cheese, which is behind you All right, so somebody hand me the never mind Here we go it gives you two of them Can't get it out of the box I'm gonna get monkey to wash these up. They're brand new they suggest you wash everything nowadays But that's what it's gonna look like. So I'm gonna get her to wash these off and then we'll show you what's next We'll show you what's next Okay, we're back monkeys got these washed up pretty good. She's gonna have cheese mixed in with hers I'll read these instructions to you. It's pretty much Self-explanatory you can actually do it by reading the pictures, but I'll read it to you because we did our homework add egg and fixing check crack egg into base of easy egg which and Stir with a fork to break the yolk and your desired fixings but add your desired fixings Vegetables grated cheese pre-cooked meat and more okay Put the lid on Insert into microwave and cook for one minute handle with care as shown in Those figures there hook the taste kind of contradict itself there But it's alright tip more cooking time may be in required when adding fixings So like you got shit in there Place your cooked egg on to a muffin or toast which monkeys got some Thomas's English muffins over there, right? That's what she's going to have Add cheese and garnish as desired try our gourmet egg which recipes ahead for some amazing breakfast treats Well, they go crazy on them. See look like right there, you know, why not just say create endless options?   Yeah You want any pepper in it? Yeah Now since we're going to be putting these both in the microwave at the same time it may take longer We'll check it. I'll do that off-camera because I don't want to bore people with showing every little step like you guys show Open in a microwave sticking it in close. I've done that before and it's just to me That's boring and it makes people skip through your videos which in turn loses watch time minutes which in turn loses money, so That's not something And now we're going to put cheese in for her you guys want we're just making a basic Style thing here for now. You want me to stir them up? Yeah mix It's actually a lot of people don't know this even chefs do not know that it's not a mixture it is an incorporation because eggs do not mix in with cheese it's just like when you're when you're mixing up Salt pepper or it's not actually a mixture because it doesn't mix.  So a lot of people don't know that even chefs. I'm not a great chef I'm not even a real chef.  So we're gonna put the lids on here Like this and I'm gonna take them over to microwave Which is good timing. So I'm gonna put them in the microwave for one minute. I'll check it Then we'll bring it back out and get her Her muffins ready and we'll see what it looks like. I have fried some bacon like I mentioned before for her So we'll see what she comes up with hang tight take two on this clip because I didn't know you had to toast these so Anyway, so let's go ahead and open these up again. I Don't know if I meant I think I mentioned it in last clip But these were cooked for exactly one minute in In 1100 watt microwave So if you got it if you've got a bigger microwave it might not take as long if you have a 700 watt microwave it May take longer. So let's go ahead and put this out here. I think monkey's getting her Getting her bacon ready. It does stick a little bit It didn't say anything about spraying it, but I Guess you could spray that it wouldn't be no problem. I mean it's plastic It's real easy. I don't know if it's dishwasher safe. I didn't look at that. Sorry guys I think monkey's checking this is an as seen on TV products. So it'll be under that playlist as well Let's move this over here. Let's get this. Yes, you can put it on the top rack of your dishwasher Okay, thank you monkey cleaning by hand. Do not use scoring pad to clean as it may scratch the product Yeah, yeah So yes, you can What you cannot do you do not use in a conventional oven do not expose to open flame Do not heat for longer than three minutes at a time and do not leave microwave unattended when in years Thank you monkey. Okay. Now. I know a lot of you guys Are like me to me. This is burnt, but this is her favorite way. She likes her bacon.  I'm gonna get you up here. Don't want to let her try this out Ready mm-hmm, you know Done so that's good. I wouldn't go any more than that and that was for both of them Yeah, well, she thought it wouldn't be done because there was two of them But she's forgetting about you know this microwave we have now is 1100 watt and our other one was a 700 watt Which did good it was for more more. It's the one. I blew the door open with the eggs in So there you go, you're like a monkey. Yeah, so what do you think two thumbs up for that?  I don't have tasted. I mean it probably tastes just fine Yeah, and you can put mayonnaise or whatever you want on it as well Ketchup whatever salsa. Yeah, I'm on my side. I like salsa on my eggs. Yeah, that's good stuff. Yeah, so alright guys Thanks for watching monkey Monkey says she's out for now. Bye y'all Bye mom Thanks for watching everyone appreciate it. I'm Shay Bear the myth man alleged. I'm gone for now. Bye. Bye guys. See you soon So let's get to this Intro time. Okay All right, so what we got here you want to get your muffins They do What are you going put them over there you want to keep them here?


Captain Crud here, and my job is fighting for a cleaner, safer world. Kids, I've got a few questions for you. Sometimes when it rains, the water runs off the grass and down the curb into a big, dark hole in the side of the street, doesn't it?  Well, it does not go to a treatment plant to be cleaned and recycled. No, it goes as is straight to your neighborhood creek, river or lake. As is means it takes everything in its path, like dirt, trash, oil that drips from cars, weed killer from your lawn, and yes, even doggy poop. I hate that. That's right, all that crud flows down the street and dives into that big hole along the curb, known as a storm drain, and it ends up polluting our creeks and lakes, harming fish and other wildlife. Let me show you what I mean. Take a look at my arch enemies, the cruddies. They want to see harmful chemicals go down the storm drain. Here's Bloomer, the plant food cruddy, and Pesty, the weed killer cruddy. Then there's Van Goo, the paint cruddy, Scrub, the soap cruddy, and finally Auto, the automotive cruddy. When I see them, they make me want to say boo. Can you say that too, crud crusaders? When I say cruddy, you say boo. Here we go, cruddy. Let's try it again, a little louder this time. Cruddy. Good. You know crud is anything grimy, gooey, icky, yucky, like the stuff that washes off when you clean your bike or the family car. This is one of Scrub's favorite hangouts, because he's the soap cruddy. Remember, when I say cruddy, you say boo. Oh no, there's Scrub now. Whoa, dude, these suds are like totally awesome. They're going right down the driveway and into the street. Woo, surf is up, dude. I bet I can ride this wave all the way down the curve. At this rate, I'll make it to the storm drain in no time.  Oh, but dude, like I made a major slope ring around the creek. Eww, dead fish ahead.  Too late for that. You're coming with me, Scrub. I'm taking you to the Environmental Collection Center. Ah, dude.  Boo! You know, crud crusaders, detergent is a major pollutant in our creeks. But this crime against nature can be prevented if you wash your bike or car on the lawn instead of the driveway. Better yet, tell your family and friends to go to a commercial car wash where dirty, soapy water drains to a treatment plant to be cleaned and recycled. There are probably lots more cruddies. Boo! Under your kitchen sink or in your storage shed. Stuff like paint, oil, weed killer, and household cleaners. First of all, they're dangerous to you.  They're not for play. Crud crusaders, you can help me out by reminding family and friends to put these harmful products up high and out of reach. And when it comes time to get rid of that leftover paint or oil, adults can take these cruddies. Boo! To the Environmental Collection Center. That's because hazardous chemicals like these should not be put in the trash or poured down any kind of drain where they can pollute our earth and water. Let's talk about another natural resource. Trees. How many of you know that trees produce oxygen? Go ahead. Crud, raise your hands. Good.  Good. Well, crud crusaders, you can help me save our precious trees by recycling paper at your house. Use newspaper. Not paper towels. To clean windows and mirrors. Wrap gifts using the comic section instead of wrapping paper. And put old newspaper in the green recycling bin along with aluminum and tin cans and plastic drink bottles.  One more time, crud crusaders. What do you say when you see a cruddy? Boo! That's right. Now, it's time to go to another school to see if I can recruit some more crud crusaders. I only hope they're as smart as you are. Thanks, crud crusaders. Conquer your crud! When I say cruddy, you say boo! Here we go. Cruddy! Let's try it again. A little louder this time. Cruddy!


Rowing is one of the most difficult movements to really hammer in, but if you can master it, like there's a story I like to tell people, right? You see people who lift in the gym all the time. You see people who come in with big chests. Some of those people are surprisingly weak, right? They might look big in the chest, but they're still kind of weak. Even with the legs, you still see some of that, right? Because you can sit down in a leg press, and yes, it's a challenging exercise, but you don't have to integrate all these pieces of your body together.  And that's kind of why I think it's important to discuss this. So in this video series, we're going to discuss this. Sorry, I'm a little sick. We're going to discuss this, this challenging movement, but with such a high reward, right? It's a little risky because you might lose some time, training, trying to figure this out and trying to really dial this in, but if you can get your rowing efficiently nailed down, you're gonna get incredible strength gains, incredible muscle gains, and it's going to support every other lift that you do.


Hello, it's Rachel Lawson here again from the Drupal Association. In this video, this chat, we are going to speak with Vishal Choudhury, who has been this year's 2020s Google Summer of Code student. Hello Vishal, how are you? Yeah, I'm great. Thanks. That's good. So we have a few of the people on the on the call and we'll all get chance to introduce ourselves in a moment. But first of all, can you tell me a little bit about yourself? Where are you at the moment? Yeah, so I'm in New Delhi, India. I'm currently a programming enthusiast. So from high school about building projects and basic sites and looking forward in Drupal community. Wow, that's great. So, so you were at college, as you say, high school, and you want to take part in Google Summer of Code. So how did you hear about that? So I think this program is pretty popular or famous amongst youth, especially under engineering background. So I heard it from my colleague. Oh, that's great. Okay. So what can you tell us about the program? What does Google Summer of Code do? Yeah, so it's a three month internship student intern program in which we get to work with our professional or experienced personnel in the field and create some projects and help in the community. That's great. So you'll sit down, you're at college and you're looking at this Google Summer of Code and you look down through a long, long list of projects. And you chose Drupal to work with Drupal. Do you want to tell us kind of why? Yeah, like initially in the initial phase where you apply for almost the look for every community and many organizations in the BSOC. And I think the huge community of Drupal and professionals from different areas and available for Drupal community. I really like to working here and I mean, I like the concept of CMS and for it. Oh, that's great. Yeah. I think the CMS and everything is kind of interesting to us all here actually. So you apply and you have to fill in a proposal and things like this and so on. Yeah. And did you get help along the way with the proposal? I mean, yeah, like when you discuss the projects and ask the integrities about the things, what mentor would be looking for the proposal in the community? Cool. So you got some help along the way and you were assigned a mentor for the project you were getting involved in, yes? Yeah. Sean McCabe. Yeah. So Sean McCabe. So Sean, hello Sean. You're the CTO AcroMedia, is that correct? That is correct, yes. Good. That's good because that means that you've kept your Drupal.org profile up today. Yes. It hasn't been replaced yet. Or it means my title hasn't changed in a long time. Oh, this is great. So you chose, you were Vishal's mentor for the summer, which is fantastic. Now, being a mentor for a Google Summer of Code student is actually a lot of work. It's a lot of contributions. So again, why? It was actually someone else that our company mentioned that, I mean, I was aware of the Summer of Code program, but he said that Drupal actually has a lot of spots every year and usually they don't actually all get filled. And so I was like, okay, well, we could, you know, I'm sure I could come up with a few, you know, projects and things like that that we could propose for people to do. And then if someone's going to be, you know, sponsored by Google to work basically a whole summer, I'm sure we could come up with enough time to, you know, mentor them and stuff like that. That said, I did round up a couple other people who I work with to help out with the mentoring Vishal programmed a little bit faster than I could keep up with. So yeah, but that was easy. I could just fully other people into helping out doing the reviews and stuff. But yeah, I mean it was basically to get, you know, three months of straight contrib time. We had lots of things so sort of on our wish list to do at Acro of like, hey, these things would be great for the community but they just, you know, haven't quite made it from a business perspective or whatever. And so it was like, okay, well, what could we, you know, get done that would be great there. So we proposed a couple and yeah, that's sort of how it went. So obviously Vishal, I'm sure will have learned lots of things from yourself. But do you think that there are things that you learnt whilst being a mentor that I overestimated how quickly I'd be able to review things. That doesn't sound familiar at all. A programmer has never overestimated anything that they've done or any skill set that they have. I've had a patch open on my browser for about two weeks now and I keep saying to the team, oh yeah, no, I'll get to that. I'll get to that tomorrow. I know I'll get to it soon. Yeah, as like a manager, it's super helpful too because you're like, yeah, if I had like a whole day I could review that you're like, yeah, in this mythical future time and when I have a whole look at something or whatever, right, I'm sure it will come up soon. I learned a fair bit about, you know, someone coming straight into Drupal, you know, and straight into commerce we actually started with a fairly complex project. Shaw actually onboarded super well to Drupal because it's known for its sort of rough learning curve, especially to get all the way into commerce and not even really easy parts of commerce but we're talking about fraud and stuff like that or whatever it was. We were really in the weeds, but that worked quite well. And then it was learning actually quite a bit about the summer of code project as well. I didn't realize we had so many slots available. And it was actually unfortunate we couldn't fill them all we had, we had tons of applications but we had very few good applications there was lots of ones that were essentially spam people had just clearly tried to apply to every single thing that they could see. And Michelle was one of the only people who properly crafted a proposal, talk to people ahead of time, got himself involved in the community. That was a big thing that I was even being mentored a little bit on how to be a mentor by a couple people. And to check that people were involved in the community and followed some of the recommendations in the proposal they you know they tried to go make patches ahead of time and things like that. And we didn't have a lot of that because it didn't seem that people had really even read that so that was kind of unfortunate but I mean it did make visual applications stand out we only had. I think I reviewed two applications that were actually really good applications or whatever so be nice to get more of those in the future, I mean you get, you get covered for, you know, a whole summer job of programming on open source. I mean, I wish I could get paid the whole summer to work just to management things and stuff like that or whatever so it sounds pretty awesome. I know the feeling. So it's funny because I was going to ask a question there around what what do you think we can do in terms of more resources that would attract more mentors but it sounds like what you're saying is making sure maybe a resources could be around how we students really understand what we're going to be looking for when we're selecting people would be a big help. Yeah. Yeah, because we had an okay. We had, I think the mentors put through 10 different projects or something like that I think of proposals available. And mine was the only one you actually just got decent applicants really, which is why it came through so that that was more the problem than the than the lack of mentors I mean Drupal has such a community of mentors and mentorship But anyways, you know, that part was pretty easy. But it's getting good applicants we tried to do a little bit of local promotion within Canada but it was kind of at the last minute because we got in a little late sort of to the program. But that would definitely think it seemed like it was underutilized I mean ultimately we could have gotten more spots, and we didn't so it seems like, you know, a big waste to lose out on all this free open source funding or whatever right Absolutely. Yeah. So just jumping back to Vishal for a little minute. Because it's all about you at the end of the day. It's the end of the summer now. And you have been working on a new version of a key Drupal module commerce fraud. And can you tell us about it what what does it do. Yeah, so the project mainly aims at checking the orders of how the fraudulent and how they work and basically distinguishing the exceptional orders which are not up to the mark for the e-commerce and using different rules and mostly with entities and plugins so that the orders details can be extracted and shown to the user and admin how orders are functioning at what quality of orders. Wonderful. Yeah, so that's pretty much ready for use now is that Yeah, We tagged a beta at basically about the end of Vishal's term, which I would say is a very usable beta to it's one you could use for in production or something. It's mostly a beta just because it hasn't got much use yet and so it seemed a little optimistic to tag a 1.0 I mean that's fantastic. I've got some client sites that would be a good candidate. Yeah, so it's funny actually because what I was going to do is bring in Ryan Zurama here, CEO of Centaro and co-founder of Drupal Commerce. Hi, Ryan. Hey, so Drupal Commerce, how should we say it's been a big part of your life?  Aside from, I guess, my marriage and my family, then there's Drupal Commerce. That's my fourth child, you know, seem to be fifth child. We're about to have one more. Yeah. Yeah, and I think that this model is really exciting because it's a frequent conversation, particularly with larger merchants. I mean there's about 50,000 merchants running on Drupal Commerce right now, processing over $2 billion in annual transactions based on our estimates, our payment payments. And once you get above, you know, even a small amount of sales, I mean let's say a million dollars a year and you kind of hit that first here, oh, I'm a legit e-commerce business. Your website becomes an attack vector for fraudulent activity all over the world. It could be as simple as somebody just using your checkout form to try to test a whole batch of stolen credit cards to find, you know, a functioning credit card to, as this module detects, you know, fraudulent orders placed in other parts of the world or using stolen credentials and shipping to a different country, you know, the rules that Vishal has included in this module would really help flag those orders to a customer service representative or a merchant so that they could really scrutinize it before they ship the product out. And I legit had just had this conversation with the merchant recently who's in Switzerland, they use Braintree for payment, and they were being tasked by Braintree to prove that their e-commerce platform had fraud control on it. And so like, having found out now about Vishal's work, guess what website that module is going on. I was just going to say, because literally when I gave you a message, I sent you a message on Slack talking about maybe you'd like to come along to this conversation and said that Vishal had been working on this commerce broad thing. You were like, oh, well, that's a strange coincidence. I can really use that. Yeah, yeah, so we, you know, we partner with PayPal for the development of the Drupal commerce platform. And they connected us to an analyst firm who wanted to learn more about Drupal commerce as a platform and half the questions were about, okay, well, what do you do to prevent fraud? What do you do to support merchants? And again, this is kind of PayPal's angle, right? Like PayPal is very merchant and fraud, merchant friendly with respect to fraudulent transactions. And so it was a really good conversation. And I'm sitting here on this call thinking, huh, this is kind of identifying some gaps we've long known we had in the platform or should probably figure out how to fill. And lo and behold, you know, Vishal and acro media are over here filling it. And I think this is like one of the greatest things about the Drupal community being an open source is that you end up with these partner and friendly companies like acro media who just take it upon themselves to have a vested interest in the platform. And then they're willing to find opportunities just like this to increase the capabilities of the platform. And so like I had no clue it was happening, right? But over here is Sean and his team working with Vishal to now fill this gap that we've had. And, and as you said, it's really important because the reputation of Drupal as an e-commerce platform is impacted by gross fraud, you know, so it's great. It's a great story. I hope you're very pleased with the work Vishal because it's obviously been very important. It's been key to the project which is which is great. Looking back at the looking back through the summer, I through applying through working with all the people you've worked with. Is there anything that you wish you knew before you started? I mean, I think, like, majorly understanding how Drupal works and the basic concept Drupal understanding more about Drupal core would be much better. Yeah. Cool. And you have not been the first Drupal, the first Google Summer of Code student that we've had. You won't be the last. I'm sure we'll have many more in the future. What would you tell the next student who's about to join the program? What would you tell them now that you've learned? I mean, it's a golden opportunity for anyone like me. And as you said, like, it's a great summer, even with the lockdown and coronavirus, like, it's a great opportunity, great community and practical experience, which I don't think I will find anywhere, even in my college. Well, that's fantastic. So I hope that your career is is boosted. And I hope that all of the people out there that are looking for people who are really key to the Drupal project get to hear about where you where will they be able to find you to come and say here come work with us. Yeah, like I'm available on LinkedIn and GitHub. Excellent. Okay. And I don't know if Sean or Ryan have anything, any tips for VCHEL's career in the future or anything else they want to add? If someone wants to hire them, they should hire them before I have a spot to hire them. I didn't hire them because we have to hire some Canadians for a specific project. Unfortunately, people located in Canada, which is about the only thing preventing that right now. So, yeah, well, again, it's good. And I actually met my partner in Centauri, Boyan Javanovich through the Google Summer Code program in 2010, which is when he worked on the Drupal Commerce affiliate module. And, you know, that started a friendship where eventually he came to work for Commerce Guys in 2016 and we separated from platform to form what is now Centauri. And, you know, all of that came as a result of him just diving in. So, you know, my advice to Michelle and whoever else is interested in the program is, like, if you had fun, like, dive in. There's a lot more areas to contribute to and plenty of opportunity in the Drupal community, not just to make an impact on the project, but also on your own life and career. And that's been true for me and for countless others. Well, that's wonderful. Well, as I say, thank you, Vishal. You've been fantastic. You've done some work. And I hope that we get to work with you or the project gets to work with you many times in the future. And good luck for that future as well. I think you deserve it. So thank you. Yeah, thank you everyone. Thanks. And thank you everyone for joining this. I hope everyone finds it interesting. Thank you.


If you are just joining us on the show, you are watching the latest breakfast show here in this hair town. You can find us on Facebook, Y254 channel on Twitter, Y254 underscore channel on the grand hashtag is Y in the morning. So we are asking you a question on your socials, on our socials. Eh, how now? I think na skianja, guys. In fact, I've been thinking about Smoky Pasua for I think almost 15 minutes and I can't wait. I can't wait. But it is what it is. Umakula abu, let us know. Hashtag is Y in the morning. So it's time for that conversation. And in case you missed the previous interview due to public demand. Like it's just that you wanted to watch it again and again and again. And don't be afraid to ask for more. But you can also find us on Y254 channel on YouTube in case the itch is a bit too insistent. Let me allow my pandas to introduce themselves to you. Good morning guys. How are you feeling? You guys look good. Maybe stop the ladies. How are you? I like your hair. Please introduce yourself to the people. My name is Fiona. I'm currently working in KPC. What do you do? I'm a junior living student. Do you want to report or just report? Yes. You have the poster here. It will be mine. Hashtag is wide warning. What is your name? My name is Evangisa Mutinda Charles. Runo. I am an international husband. Yeah about that. Please help me understand what that means exactly. It means I'm married to a beautiful Tanzanian lady by the name Koku. She even has swag in her name. Koku. Why international husband? Is it because you live in Kabauda? It's about identity. It's about creating yourself in the universe. How do you want to be recognized? How do you want to be known? Since I relate with matters of relationships, marriage and family matters it comes on board very handy. It also means maybe nili kwa sa loko. So I head to Kokabuda. I'm a father of two. I'm a younger Ajiapo. We'll forgive you because you are a very proud father. Thank you. A topic of the day, if you did not know, let me tell you. Do shows and programs that you watch on TV or elsewhere? How do you act, think and behave? Do they affect you? I would like to assume that... I'm not assuming it's the truth but let me just pretend I'm assuming. I would like to assume that this is because of the recent murders we've been hearing at Kwanzena Karura and how someone randomly watched Killing Eve and read two books and decided it's time. It is time. Hashtag is one in the morning. What do you think? What do you think? It's not even thinking. Whatever we read whatever we watch it actually affects how we react, how we reason, how we think. It gives us a world view. Yani tu kuna wile tu kiwa nakituflani kuna wile tu bieviako lazima tu ita nda nanayokitu at a certain perspective. And especially in the current generation kwa saasa we view so much. Actualy we read less and view more. That's why we have... Is it tick-tock something? Maybe the current generation this thing I downloaded I looked and it was just looking for the rates. You can waste hours. You are just watching moving from one another moving from another. Suggested for you. And you are just watching and consuming hours and hours it really affects direct. When we come to reading it's also another source of our world view that gives you kwa saa wile tu kiwa nakituflani reading has affected me but when we look at the current generation if you write somebody a paragraph they will not read. Just short, short, short, short I mean in so many WhatsApp groups and you find sometimes when you are writing something long you get few responses but you can take it to fupi fupi so it means people are reading but the reading trend has changed. Is it the capacity our capacity has become smaller and the rest don't want? That is one but again you see we are a generation in that we do it faster we do it faster we do it faster we do it faster we do it faster we do it faster we do it faster we do it faster you find anything time consuming this trend has affected me but I cannot tell you very few are able to do that because of these interactions of like WhatsApp something for Facebook you can talk to me so reading we are reading but the trend is different but they do affect us what do you think Fiona do you think they affect us? Yeah, to add up what you are saying let's say for example if you send me a long text I will stream the first two like this why do I have to struggle and you can maybe call someone we talk one on one and finish that conversation so reading also affects our behavior plus watching also like for example I once watched this movie what men want just like a shayake as I am working I am looking what is the men wants like I call it you read them you can read them what they want so when I am working I am concentrating on men looking at men and then I remember it was just a movie sort of searching what they are what you think call me on pair lines why you get me like that so when you work and you see someone looking you can read their mind so watching in effect like sometimes kuna move you and watch it impact what you will do so that's me I have a question what's the difference between having a passion for reading because honestly one of the ongoing cases it's not concluded so we can't say it back one of the ongoing cases he not only watched Killing Eve but he also read two books so is it that honestly I am one of those people and this is a bit weird I have always been a geek I am one of those people prefer the book to the movie if the movie is out I will first find the book kwanza no, I watched the movie kwanza and then I consumed the book my imagination is out there so I am assuming now this one has not only watched and he has also gone back I am assuming kuna malia li kuna highlights and he did what how did he get away with it alafopi geisabu according to Kenyan industry I am sure to transfer kusema wali Robbio Bank ni money heist like after money heist wali Robbio is it that entertainment has now become a threat can we not distill information I still take me in kijana and we have a kijana generation let me share a little bit of how reading affected me I think I was a teenager or a young boy in class 7 summer 8 so we are talking about 90s and I am sure you are not there it's okay you look young so maybe so you can imagine at class 7 I read a book is it John Grisham it's called The Partner and this book it had a detailed a guy ran away from home he was married he was a lawyer in a farm and somehow things were not working for him I realized he was a murderer and somehow he plotted how to run away from his family and that was that's when I read so for details but I actually implemented it this has to do more with parenting how you raise your kids and what the things they go through so I have been raised up by a very good ma but a general very strict you know those parents of those days they can just take you to the next level so my upbringing was a little bit over strict and my mum was very harsh and I used to go through faces of emotional detachment suffering I felt lost outside you could meet me I was a very happy guy I was born again when he was in class 6 I was preaching, I was doing a lot of things in the church but because of the the fire at home I was hurting in the inside and I ignored what I could talk to and share with but because of love for books I used to read a lot and the guy used to read with me back then I used to read a lot I used to read a lot I used to read a lot I used to read a lot we have seen them so I used to read a lot I read Akinna James Alices Akinna Nancy Drew all those kinds of novels but this one stood out so I was, what am I going through how could I escape this of course suicide was some thinking but was not an option and then I felt like I need to run away from this home I can't keep on staying here it's getting more actually I used to fast and pray about it alaf niki maliza to fast TV it gets fiery so you can imagine I used to cry a lot I used to have my own room and I used to cry a lot during the night I used to cry my pillow but during the day I was okay, I was this good guy so one day one time I decided to watch a plot running from home and that's what I did when I joined from one it's a long story, I'm just jumping up when I joined from one our school got banned it was a provincial school so I had to come home and my parents gave me an option but the school was near so I was leaving and cycling to school day in the morning and the evening so now being closer to mum it was another big challenge so you can imagine I'll not give you the details but you can imagine as a kid as a teenager you're going through this stuff and then I just joined a new school and then there was this kijana let me tell you bullying is very bad this guy used to call me Jackie no no and I used to hate it 3 or 4 there so you can imagine at home things are not working at school things are not working again so my performance is also dropping in the society I look good people are just appreciating and loving me I wasn't a bad boy, I think so but let me tell you when I decided I want to run I just wanted to implement I used to do a lot of things which could not like when I was a kid I used to be a god I used to be a girl free I used to go to the market so when this guy disappeared he went to Marathon daily he changed his license so what did I do I didn't do that fat all but I used to think I want to go to Darisa Lam at Tanzania it's all making sense continue so what did I do I decided in my conversations with anyone I hated TZ I hated Tanzania we are border we are border only border I am a border we used to have market days we used to go to the market so there is a lot of interaction so for me I used to just I hate these guys I don't love them reason was like the day I disappeared nobody should ever think I was just I was just implementing what I had done from this guy and I did it for several months I just hated TZ and I just like long term so eventually the day of disappearing came I went to the market I think we were in midterm so we went to the market and I I left mam I ran back home and kachkwa gunia kachkwa mangoza muna kakwa gunia I need to look like a market guy and I will talk I'm telling you that's what I did so even when I was crossing the border no papers nothing I was just going to go on Sunday and Saturday so I couldn't escape on a Tuesday for or on a Thursday so that was plan and remember I just joined I am 16 or 15 so I joined form 2 but when I was in summer I was in class 7 few years back and I am implementing it now so I was in kachkwa gunia so I was going to go to the market kwa na toka, na fukade aida side nika fukabodea, kwa anza nika fukabodea appealing, alafu niki inga, niki endampaka arusha.  Wa, wa. I remember this I had not have money, so I had stolen my parents money, that was my ticket. Niki kwa fanya ni, niki kwa gari, I paid the bus to Resala but I slept. Wali kupitisha? Kwa bus. Apana, nila laktu kwa bus, and then the following day there is alarm. No, to just summarize that, when my parents and of kwa ze written a note, what I've done and the reason, but let me tell you, what let me tell you, what happened, later when I'm told the stories, okay I come back later, it's another long story, I'm told they searched everywhere, but not in Tanzania.  They did everything they could, but not at given time, did they ever think, if you search everywhere, you will find Tanzania. I was called Vuka Boda. So, that was... If I just may tell you, can I just use his story to ask a question? Yes. You see, where he's coming from is okay, a lot of dramatics, yes, but you know in his head at the time, you sound like you were making sense to yourself, like you need escape, you need to be free and all these things, but basically, he's coming from Kenya, so I'm coming from Kenya to watch, it's coming from Kenya to feel, but when a generation, there's just the other day where they have a conversation, I'm asking my panelist, hey, nowadays people are committing suicide, they're doing what? Then they're like, no, when he asked we didn't go through things, I'm like, no, now you can't tell someone like that, just talk to mum, be able to see, say it out loud, do that by themselves, how do we figure out what the problem is before it escalates? Like, how do we know? Come on, what to a society? Did you give me stanza, I'm not a parent, so, how can we tell? So, hard question. Hey, maybe we ask him, did you behave differently just before, just before you ran away or you planned this whole thing? I'll tell you where the problem is, and so, when you know where the problem is, you'll find the solution. And we'll, like you, we pick the guys, the guy, he must had our family, he had issues with the family. And when you read, because it's what we are reading, they look like a good family, well catered for the guys in campus, so you can imagine they must be living good. But let me tell you, as we are growing up, we have emotions, we have feelings, we have disappointments, we have challenges. And one of the things is a pillar that can help to navigate through the pillar yamsazi, parenting. And one of the things that, because it is the real, it is the reality. According to the story, the guy, alikwana hiti wa zazi, and because alikwana oneliaot, toengini, something like that. So he had, inside him, it was not outside, it was inside him, but he had these battles. Yeah, but even in the news, they said he was a very calm guy. He was always by himself. That's why it's... The people who keep it inside is it? Yes, that's why it's inside, inside, inside. And one of the things that I like to challenge parents is to learn to affirm their kids. Affirmation. It is one of the solutions. It's not everything, but it helps. It helps when you affirm your kid. It doesn't matter whether the kid is good or is not good. It doesn't matter if I'm a fanya visuri, I'm a jafanya visuri, but affirm you are my son. Okay, the other things create time with them, listen to them, talk to them. But I want to talk with affirmation in this. Let me bring the biblical perspective of it. We are seeing Jesus is born again, he is born in 1030 years, he is just about to start his mission.  He had done nothing. Nothing. He was a fanya visuri, but God affirmed that he was a fanya visuri. He was a fanya visuri. Later, in the journey, there was another affirmation. I mean, fanya visuri, it was towards the configuration, is it configuration some other? To leonatena, heaven and fungu kandafu, God tena naungia. This is my son whom I love. Now, when you bring it into parenting perspective, do not wait for this son to do something. Do not wait for this girl to do something. Can you be affirming them as they are? Okay, but with respect, parents are out here losing jobs because of COVID-19 and maybe they are going to their own things. And again, I'm not a parent, but we must also understand the head space. Perhaps when we are living in an African culture, we don't have time for, I love you, I love you. I did not say I love you, I did not say I love you. Affirmation, if I talk about affirmation, it's not neksajasing, I love you. Because when you put it in the African culture, but it's something you can do for your kid, they can tell my parent love me. I love hugging my kids. I love just hugging them, just, you know, like hugging, even without talking to them. Anajua. He's to work for us, because as we know it, people, there are some parents who are just basic. Well, I've put food on the table, I've educated you, that's tembe na esu.  Ya, and then I say, good job, I might raise someone who can at least stand on their own two feet. Allow me to say this, changing times calls for modernization in the parenting. Tu kukua, e generation, tu kosahi, na tu ezi kata, na tu ezi hepa. This is, if you want to mention, if you are a parent, and you want to talk about kitu, alafu, just go and text, unto me, ama utha, sasa, fanya even. Watch which works faster, which one which comes home. Use the social media, or use the, wei, nime semaniki, kujie viyomu vukurezimu uswa. You know that, although retative and then check the responses. You find, that's what I'm saying, it's modern parenting. And one of the pillars, it's not everything, it's one of the pillars, it's parenting. Tu jaribu ku kuryalize our, as you said, it's COVID, it has trackers, things are working against us, it's parents. Remember also this kid, they have their own world. You also have to step up and know how do you fit in as a parent. How do you create time to know, because of whatever you are doing, pure in our affect. How do you reach out to them? Because kukwana shida, what is the solution? Solutionetuna sema, as a parent step up your game in parenting. Also watch these movies and says, to see ni niniwa naona, ama ni ninii na fanyika. You also need to know, okay, I watch movies, I watch series. Okay. It affects me as a person, I know my thinking, I know my talking, but what do I watch? All right, so let's do this. Let's go to the audience and let's see what they are saying. So it's at WIPF on Facebook, Y254 channel on Twitter. Hashtag is white in the morning. I hope you're feeling something. Are you feeling something? Because he's speaking very passionately and Sanjay here died. At Tepeoda and Daya just learning things. Okay. All right. So we have one, Somishanana hashtag one in the morning. I don't think so because everyone has a brain to decide what is good and what is not good. TV program should not define your character. If you just join in, we're asking, do you think the things that we read and watch affect our behavior, what we do, how we think? Who? Duwati says no. Okay. Magem says, kwanza meansia Maria. Maria. Sidi tzvila inone'sha, jinzi watotwa na po ramali zawazia. Ziko wafu kuzo kwanzumbazaw, na kusdi kwa dadilizha kwa watu. Acting industry in Kenya is a mess because they're always after the money and not thinking about more negative sides. Yani, you're going to... Can I have a... Excuse you. What? Mono wo sumbu ya kina leka sa depapio. Why are you not checking the killing eight people? Why? How are you placing that claim at home? Sai kusan dotmengia Netflix. We will say it's not a sub title. We will not say it's not a sub title. We will not say it's not a sub title. We will not say it's not a sub title. We submit it under the comment. Feliz says no, Jenkins Mwangi says yes. It does affect Magiz Angel says yes. But some people don't know how the society behaves. Uncle Dennis says. Can I interact with that message? Sure. Aga kama moko. These things are created by people like us. We can't run away from that. It's a fact. Wao said. Anko deni says ho di ho di bila shakani anko deno eh hadi wu me piga ho di all right. It's okay at the United States of Kerita, UG County watching the show. Hadita Matim and James Bukwana. Piya nengiliya kwa mother hui na funzanini kwa society. Hacha iendeleku support zanje. I used to think those questions. I used to ask these questions producers and actors of films, why programs, ama films ninki nizama mawaji kwa niya kuna other themes. But you will be the first one to watch Fast and Furious. But you'll be the first one to watch Akina Jaki-Chan fighting. You'll be the first one. Okay. Patty Lingard says, let her Chelsea to tapi. A'a nimku namba seven, first four. Just Sharks. I want to sing you a story. Sing you a story aho inozuni isha. A'a nimku naka kwa majira na naki na ase no kuna wile. Oh, I thought you were an ase no fan. I was even going to ask why you're getting confident. To the wakilisha. To naka wizuri kuju. We'll fuck, banyu banyu. Yes. Ah, the show is lighted up. As we have gone from topic, as we come back on topic, Jay and Dr. Zuz have seen this poster. Let me say I think concerning the matter. Yes, people relate to what they watch. Music is the biggest influence on Kenyan TV and it has negative effects on its consumers who are the young generation. Okay. Then I'm guessing this is like in a do-do. Sijui atokwem tamu wa jewezi jikula. Those ones, et cetera. Tom Rafiki says, ziko na ukumedi mingi. So we zi beba. Hotspotia Wi-Fi na jua. Natu kakuse mawale wezi wa bank wa linfluenzi. Wana money has to money. Yeah! We were just talking about... Apu god point. Apu tumu kupatia. Now when your lead did turn a lock term, maze. Eh, toskai. Wapemi kani. Kuna move, kuna series. Kuna move yama series. Ya kama iyo, sewa li dig down wa kato keleziya. Da! We have never seen such dedication. Six months. Unwachima. Can you give them employment? E maze, gava inafa. Awa sewa kakunomba kotops. And maze, James says good morning again requesting love by Utile Brown and Ali Kiba. David Neto says good morning. The content they give their airplay have an impact either directly or indirectly. Okay. I still feel, and I'm saying this because we have six minutes. I don't know why time flies when we're having fun. But Fiona help me understand. Mwana. It's a personal opinion. Kai don't come for me. I think these things are tools. It's like, you know, technology.  Ajike paswaad, nisei funguwa, alafu anafanya vituazifi. I cannot now tell the government to stop online learning as it was before because of COVID and the schools had been closed. That is simply because kumpati a gadget. I think these things are tools. And just the way we choose to handle, yeah. But what would you think? Nama nimi pati ansa na, swali na ansa. Nama nima nisa. I address the nation. Ya, rika din, am technology. Vani ui yu omoja lisei ma. Ken yu na fanya ni ma intiafu, like, dizi shonuta mik it's your own personal choice. Siya tib na, kwa driven by something. So, wezi, chukwa sii mua tu mekakandu, nituazifi tu mei sii mua tijiku na, bla bla bla bla. At the end of the day, umtutupe na tika pula. Na, sikuwezi kilakichu iko digitalize na. Wezi, ikovidwa, titu wa mekaksama kwa internet, lini, laptop, simu and water views. So, it's a matter of control. Una control, amoneka limits. If you say, na tu mei sii mua tijiku na, ek, kini mii sii sii control. Lasimii, kwa kilakichu na seima, nikitupiata weuna? I'm talking about the kids. Yes. Ya, parental control. Yes. So, for the kids, like, for example, I have a nephew. I call, like, seven. This is a day I'll kuna kumiasiim. And then, you know, when they're using the phone, I'll make a earphone. So, I'll make up a kid who wants to watch. Utu tukubizi, yukubizi. Hey, mama kia nasiangutisha nangadi ni. Kusnupa round, he's watching pornography. Six years old. Six years old. I'll become a cross and add. A cup. To click. Oh my gosh. So, I'll click. A cup. I'll answer to watch. So, I'm a different feature.  I'm a different feature because he's watching what he's watching. So, can you now take a look at me?  I want to be. I want to play something that you never see. Yes. I want to do it. I want to watch what I want. Yes. So, for the kids, I want to control them. I want to control them. There's also, if it's YouTube, they have the the settings. Yeah, for the kids. For content. So, as a parent, if you want to watch what you're watching, you have to adjust the settings. Because you never know what you're watching. And they don't go searching. They just happen. And then they find themselves doing that. So, that's as much as the country's input, but the gadget pick when I control. Yeah, when I call the kids, I'm sure. Okay, now that she's handled our younger audience, as in watoto, I want to ask you a question. As a parent. You know, as a proper parent, because here you're the parent.  In fact, you'll not understand what I'm going through. In fact, in old school, I don't tell you. I told you, Peter. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Miu to to, and you know it's got your fault. It's just basic biology.  Your hormones are everywhere. And I want to do something that mommy and daddy don't want me to do. And it's not at your reach. This person is baby We had over 16. In a high school we had no children and we was even younger than our kids. Now these are young men, young ladies. Now how do you approach this? We come to the table to say clearly that we are more than a 6-year-old boy and we must be better at this. So how do we zoom in and please make it as brief as possible. So, let's accept one thing first, that kwa spirit ka rebellio, ribbing rebellious, wakana kuja tata certain point. Atau yuki kwa kuna place ulefiwa kuna, nao azaibili to mese moa mezidi na bidi? Nivi lesi, mimi wad ventilo wa skuana kipawa cha kuku, muse maa. We need to accept that as a parent you can do everything possible, but it's still at the end of the day this kid will be rebellious, they will do things that are not what they are doing it. We need to accept our kids as they are. That is from the parental point of view. You need to be as they are. You shape them. Don't command them. Don't generalize. Nojom tu tokuna eje kifika. The only thing you can do mongelesha. Tell them your point of view irrespective of what they are doing. Keep on talking to them. Because I can tell you irrespective of my mother being so harsh and so everything in general and what. Today, I'm a good father. I'm a good husband. I'm still a man in process. I'm not perfect. But some of those things she's telling me, they are working for me. So as a parent, do not stop doing what is right when what you think is right. The other thing is as a person, you need to learn how to venture out in speaking. Speak. Find a clique that you are able to speak to. You said what you watch and what you read. That is what we are looking at. But again, who do you speak to? Who do you conspire to? This guy's girlfriend probably would have known what would have happened. And they could have also spoken out to jamanges idea. So when you speak out, you have to find someone to be in providing in. This person will be able to help you. Again, this prayer, this church, there are things you need to associate yourself with God. So don't run away from the place of God in your life. Sinopia, you have come with your things and you can tell me you don't believe and it's not in my place to force it down your throat. But I do think release is important. Even if you don't believe in a high power deity, in Shoryago, but just release, release. What you see on TV, do not try this at home. Do not try this at home. You can copy baby shark, find to that at home. But it's... Half a second, half a second. Reading made me get a wife. I was a street boy. And I got a wife because of reading. We are not particular story. Thank you so much guys for staying with us. This conversation has been very interesting and I really hope that we can continue it next week because we have more ground to cover. But as it is at White Fife on Facebook, White Fife on Twitter, White Fife on Instagram. My name is Valentine and we think you should have an amazing day.


Mike, how is Will in his right foot? And will he have a chance to play this week? We'll see. We'll evaluate that through the week. We'll see how practice goes. And then we'll prepare accordingly and make sure that we give everybody the best opportunity to win the football game. So we'll see everybody's health. And as they work through treatment today and practice and treatment through the week. Do you practice tomorrow? I don't know that as of now, yeah. But it's an important thing, I guess. Yeah, yeah, I think everybody has. Everybody feels a little bit better after some treatment and some time and recovery. And we'll see who's available and where we can go. Mike, in eight-plus games you've seen Will, though, do you feel good and confident about his future here with his team? Well, I'm not ready to talk about our future or anybody else other than what's happening this week with Jacksonville. And I think at the right time, we'll be able to try to have those conversations where they just want us to finish strong. And they do everything that we possibly can to finish this year off the best that we can. That's what the focus is. If we look at, though, this week, there be any consideration of giving Malik and other shotters at still Ryan's job as the second match? Ryan would play if Will can't go. Ryan would be the quarterback. Mike, where have you seen the greatest development with Will over these last three games when he's been healthy and able to play? Again, with all due respect to our season and to the Jacksonville Jaguars and to just the season, just the reflection and the improvement. And it hasn't been there for any of us, not enough of it. And whether that be me, the coaching staff, the players, I mean, I think we just have to continue to strive to improve and clean up the things that we see that can affect whether we win or lose. And so that's what we're going to try to do this week. And then we'll be able to touch on where we feel like we're going to go after that. With your offensive line, it seemed like progress was being made in terms of pass protection in the middle of the season. Then the last three weeks in sacks have become a problem again. Is there anything that you can pinpoint that's created some of that? I mean, I think sometimes matchups in this league. And again, our ability to be able to stay out of games that turn into a drop-back mode, you guys all scoff at me when I say that. And we have to stay out of those games. We have to stay complementary to where you can run the football, you can move the pocket, you can run keepers, you can run play action where guys are creating different angles, as opposed to sitting in there in a two-minute situation and having to go on the ball and drop back and throw it and score and be down in those situations. That's just not where we need to be. And that's all of our faults for putting ourselves in that position. So there's good looks at it. And then there's obviously some disappointing snaps as it relates to protection. And everybody can help. Talk about the good looks at it. Isn't it a little bit like the airport, like the planes are supposed to land safely? And when they do, it's not the thing that you get excited about. It's when there's a crash that it's news. The plays where they block effectively is what they're supposed to do. Do you spend a lot of time on the plays where they block correctly, giving them credit for it? Or is it about the ones where they don't? I think it's a balance. I think you have to continue to show. And I appreciate such a very wordy, long, drawn-out question.  I guess the biggest thing is showing everybody, or each player, or each unit, something that you've worked on that you get in the game and you're able to nail it. And you're like, OK, you put time in on it. This is something that we focused on and worked on. And then, obviously, there's the technique plays or the negative plays that we show as well and that we have to try to avoid. That's why we have to practice. And so I'm not trying to sit here and have a pizza party over the positive plays, but there are some things that you're working on and that you end up getting in the game that are positive. And it's part of development and improvement is some small victories along the way. We know that the only victory that matters is the football game. But individually, I think that there can be some small victories as you try to develop players on your roster. You know the changes in that, but you've lived through this game. Is there any time for sentimental thoughts this week that this could be your last game with 22 in the backfield? No, I think we all will have time to sort some of those things out after the season. We're all disappointed and frustrated by how this went this year. But we're just trying to make sure that it's as professional and as classy as we finish. And then we put the players in the best position to go out there and, again, win. But then also there's still a lot of guys that are playing for personal accolades as well. And I'm absolutely OK with that. Because we've always said that when you get enough guys that have personal success within what we're trying to do as a team, we're going to have plenty of team success. So those things have to coexist. And I want them to one more week. Do you feel like the message that you and the coaching staff try to send to the team, do you feel like that's still being received the same way now as it was when this team was having success in years past? The message really is try to stay consistent. I think that whether you just there's things that we believe in and there's things that we know win football games and that is clean football and winning football and successful football. So when we don't do those things, that's not getting, I mean, we're not doing a good enough job of getting that coached or taught with whatever turnover there may be or may not have been. So yeah, I mean, it all falls on me. I'm good with that. You started dealing three times to pull him. Is it the lack of alternatives that gets him back into the position? Well, we only have so many offensive linemen. And there was, but there was also trying to get jailing some work as well. And that's what you work with here in the season with who you have. You stress at all that this is a big game? I mean, this is potentially a playoff game for Jackson. Every game is a big game. And I'm in and a year ago, we were in that opportunity. We were in that spot and we weren't able to win. And we just, we need to win for a lot of reasons. Have you seen progress from Jim when his stats started to go? Well, most importantly, it's what we're going to get this week. And again, everybody's ready to, I'm just not ready to sit here and write a review. And it shouldn't be very good. So again, we're focused on what he's going to be able to do this week and how he can play this week and how he can find a way to help us win. Do you potentially look at guys like Murphy or Gibson, maybe some guys who had to play a lot this year in the final game or what's the balance like? And curious about some players but also one to let your veterans finish? Yeah, I'm going to try to be as respectful as I possibly can. I think I'd be doing those guys at disservice and not adhering to the trust that I've tried to build with those players at that position that you're talking about. It's been one of the strongest positions on our football team. It's the one that's maintained and helped us consistently. By that, I mean just being there day in and day out, we know how much Danico and Harold and then with the addition of Arden this year, that would be difficult. And I know that those guys, they want to play. They want to play well. And I want them all to get as many damn sacks as they possibly can and tip as many passes and make as many plays as they possibly can. And so Caleb has to earn a right to play. He made a couple of tackles on special teams. Didn't follow that up. So we'll see how he does this week and then we'll see how the game goes. With the Jaguars quarterback situation, how do you prepare potentially maybe having to play more than one quarterback or maybe someone who you wouldn't normally see? I think that's always probably delicate. We see the similar plays. There may not be as much movement plays or mobility. But I think as a whole, the plays that you're trying to prepare and show the players to are going to be the same, the same types of plays. And then once you figure out who the quarterback is, maybe one scrambles a little bit more, one's more in a pocket, and you'll have to adjust to that and say, hey, we've got a threat for a more mobile quarterback and how that all plays out. In the last game, Mike with a long tie-dins, healthy, active, will some of those guys be able to play this week or do you even have to go find some guys to get some depth? The answers, I think, are here for whatever we need. We'll see how those guys are feeling.  Trey, you ever need to show you anything? Did you have another thought or no? I'm just curious. Why?  Losing. Awful. That's why I want to win. Because you don't sleep. You want to win for the players that bust their tail. That's it. I mean, it's not about, hey, we'll go into the offseason with a good note. Nobody knows what you did on January 7th or 8th or 6th in April when you come back. But you want to see, just did all come together. And just put four quarters together, win a game like we talked about.  Yeah, we feel the same way. In that game the other day, we got to put ourselves into a competitive game where it's back and forth, back and forth. And there's some field position. And then you score. And you take care of the football. And we just hadn't done that in the opportunities that we had that were like, OK, we fought and we were close. But I think that's why. Just put yourself in a competitive situation. Come up with a way to make a play in the second half to win the game. That's what I hope for. Sorry about my language. Trey, have we got to tell you anything besides health and where to get back in a while? Oh, I mean, I think he's trying to get healthy. And the last exposure wasn't great. So given Eric a chance and SMB came back and if Trey's healthy, I'm sure he'll help us. And be ready to go in some capacity. We were talking about playing complementary offense. I'm curious, to you, does that always start with establishing the runner? There are other ways to achieve?  There's other ways. I mean, we just make a play down the field that changes field position and creates momentum. Converting third downs, controlling the football, that's always a great way. And then finishing drives with points. And then reserving a right to punt, not putting a ball in harm's way. Being able to pin them inside the 10. We've seen examples, not enough of them, to where we do that. And then we force them to punt. We have a good defensive series, force them to punt. Now we're on a short field. But yeah, I mean, those are certainly things that you have to do. If you can bust a couple runs in there to keep them off balance so that it's not rushing in every play, I think that that does help. And it also, again, I think allows you to create some of those play pass protections that are more favorable to everybody. Four interceptions this year. More product of DVs need to make no plays. Or the pass rush needs to force more men throws? Both, I mean. Or tip some passes.  So that's something that we always continue to try to emphasize. But it's never going to be about one specific. And also, we've had our hands on some footballs. Yeah, you've got to make the ones that you're supposed to make. You've got to catch the ones you get your hands on. We always say in man coverage, it's not about getting interceptions. It's about not letting your man catch the ball. And then if we're in the zone, we have to be able to break and try to make a play on a football. And then obviously, the pass rush plays a part in that.  Is it not getting there fast enough or they're throwing it before we get there? And that's a fine balance of trying to work together to create ball disruption. We always say that. We're trying to work together. I know you missed a lot with Jeff Rial. But that was one of the things he seemed to excel at, was getting his hands up. Well, and we've had some other opportunities. I mean, we've tried. And guys that have tackled the quarterback, whether the quarterback falls on it, whether Arden hits it out and falls in the quarterback, recovers it, but you do see a lot of tip balls get intercepted. And that's something that I think is a fine line and a balance between Russian. And then also seeing that front hand, knowing that you're not there, and sliding back into a throwing lane.  We don't want guys that just stand at the line of scrimmage and hop up and down. I don't think that does anything. But also, I think there is something that trying to work into the pocket and being able to get into those throwing lanes and try to tip a ball. So that helps as well. Mr. Buggers, at Sunday, you didn't really know about the injuries and why they've come the way they've come the last three years now. I mean, do you think that luck plays into it as much as anything? I mean, I don't know how it won it. It was some of the ones that we've had. Whether that's a guy falling on somebody's MCL, or a guy getting dragged down as a gunner and hurting his knee and Colton's instants. We don't ever want to put our players in any sort of harm's way. I mean, the injuries that have occurred to the quarterbacks are unfortunate. We know nothing good comes from when the quarterback gets hit. So again, we'll have an opportunity to, at some point in time, discuss all those and certainly want to do everything that we can to avoid soft tissue injuries. But I don't know what the answer is sometimes to guys falling into other people's legs out there on a football field or hurting something else. So we're going to continue to evaluate that and try to get the guys back as quickly as possible when they do have an injury. What do you think the rest of that is due to level out over time? I guess it's like analytics. I guess you need a lot of examples, however many examples they use to run the model. How much did Colton, I guess, improve in his rookie year?  Well, he improved on that special teams. And when you have a young receiver like that with some size and some speed, you hope that that can translate into the kicking game. I don't think that it did right away. And I think that he worked extremely hard personally. I think Anthony Levine worked extremely hard. And again, anything that a player does is going to be on them. But I know that Levine spent a lot of time teaching Colton how to play special teams and how to be a gunner in this league. So those were some real positive things. And so the message is to get healthy and find a role in this football team next year.


This is Think Tech Hawaii. Community Matters here. Good morning. This is Craig Thomas, your host on Much More Medicine. Part of Think Tech Hawaii's live stream show. And with me today is Jeannette Kojain, ahead of Kokua Mau. And today we're assisted as usual by Rich and Ray, our engineers. Thank you both. So welcome. I'm really happy you're here. I've admired your organization for years. And you get to tell us about it. Great. Well, thank you so much for the invitation. And I really look forward to talking about Kokua Mau. It's obviously something that's very important to me. Kokua Mau is a network of organizations and individuals here in Hawaii that we'd like to say that we're leading a movement to improve care. So for us, the ideal is that people in our community get good care throughout their lives. And we especially focus on people with serious illness and people at the end of life. And so what we're hoping for is that people who are in that situation, they have good quality of life throughout their life. Their loved ones are supported. The professionals that take care of them are well trained. And that they can really have good quality of life throughout their life. So it's a fabulous organization. We're going on almost 20 years here in Hawaii. And like so many other things, a Huey works really well. That you bring people together to do more than we could by ourselves. So I'm very privileged to work with these folks. And it's a really fabulous group across the state. So I'm very glad that we get a chance to tell more people about the work that we do. You know, I'm really pleased you're doing it. Did you get into this in the first place? You know, for me this is actually, you know, people ask me that all the time. And I started, I think when I look back, my journey began when I lived in San Francisco at the end of the 80s, which was the AIDS crisis. That was a tough time. It was a very tough time. And I worked for a project called the AIDS Memorial Quilt. And our approach to the AIDS epidemic was to come with love and compassion and understanding to speak about the lives that we had lost and the people that were impacted by the epidemic. And when I look back at that time in San Francisco, everybody was involved with providing good care to people and to be supporting each other. And you know, meals on wheels was crucial. The doctors and nurses were crucial. SF General was crucial. And so were so many other services and just ordinary people in San Francisco.  Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah, it was very surprising. You know, she was very healthy. She and I had taken a hike the day before and she had a seizure at work and was diagnosed with this brain tumor. And it was, as those of us that have gone through this of caring for a loved one know, there's not a clear roadmap. As the eldest daughter and somebody involved with healthcare, I was called in, of course, to help make decisions. And, you know, looking back, I feel like I made good decisions for my mom. Her voice was a part of the conversation. Her voice was represented both in the chemotherapy we tried and then when it was time to stop and to call in hospice, that we were able to care for her in such a way that she was well cared for throughout her life. We were supported. She was supported. I miss her all the time and it's been 22 years. But I can look back and say, you know, I did a good job. And I think that has led into what Kakuamao is. And I think we in Hawaii, we have such an opportunity and we're already working on building this community where people are well cared for. You know, we all do care about each other. We're all related to each other. We're all taking care of each other. You know, never talks, think about anybody. Because we're all connected. And I think that we, especially in this movement of Kakuamao, we just see if we can all work on this together, we really can care well for people. And that's really our vision. Is that this community is created, that in our community there's a good continuum of care where people are well cared for. And their loved ones and the professionals as well. So that the whole team is supported throughout the journey, which I'm not saying that it's easy. I'm just saying that at least there are things that we can be doing to support people. Well, to catch on the last thing you said, life isn't easy. I think you're right. I think Hawaii is our privilege to live here. And so honestly, so I've been an emergency doctor as sobering to think of for 36 years. I started at Oahu on 1983. Worked all over the state. And one of the fabulous things about working in Hawaii is people are connected. And people are nice to each other. And in general, the family and community support is much better than some other places I worked before I came here. That's fantastic. Having said that, I've also watched over time how things can play out well. And I'm really sorry to hear about your mom. I have to tell you from an ER docs point of view, your mom represents sort of a heartbreaking case because, and this happens to us, somebody comes in healthy in the middle of life and we make a deadly diagnosis. Completely life and family altering devastating diagnosis. And we have to sit down with somebody, we met an hour before and say, I have to tell you, I know why you had your seizure. And here's what it is. I'm not the oncologist, but this is a big deal. And now we have to figure out what to do. And every emergency doctor is faced with moments like that. It's not, we diagnose a significant amount of terminal disease. And it's very sobering. There's also, of course, other things that happen. There's trauma. There's, you know, the arc of life as we get older. Things that weren't an issue become an issue. Some of them can be treated. Some of them cannot. But I think it points out to what you were alluding to, namely the goal is good care throughout life. And our, we need to be prepared for the lightning strikes like your mom. And we need to have a cognizance of where we are sort of in the spectrum of life. And plan appropriately. So let's talk about that. Let's say I'm much younger than I am. We'll take off 50 years thereabouts. And I'm 18. What do I need? Okay. So, you know, what we want people to understand is that there are decisions and discussions that can happen early to help prevent this crisis, just like you said. So at 18, really everybody needs to figure out who their decision maker is. We call it a healthcare agent, healthcare power of attorney.  I think you phrased it on your website as someone who can speak for you and you cannot speak. Exactly. Yep. And so that's, you know, that's the thing to be thinking about. Who would speak for me if I can't, who would speak for you if you can't speak for yourself? And then do they know what you want? Yes. And that's what's really important. And if we can get people doing it at 18, that's great. I'll be honest. Most people at 18 aren't thinking about that. So, you know... No, but some of their behaviors suggest they should be thinking about it. Suggest otherwise. Although when you talk to young people about car accidents, they kind of wake up as do their parents. So, if we can get conversations going early, that's really our goal. How do we start these conversations early? How do we break the ice? How do we get people talking? And we find that given the right venue here in Hawaii, people do like to talk story. They like to talk about... They may at the beginning say, oh my gosh, I can't think about this. But especially if they've gone through it themselves, whether it was the neighbor or grandma or a loved one, they do want to have that opportunity. So for us at Kukua Mau, we approach this in three different ways. So one thing we do is we try to help people who may be facing serious illness understand decisions they may need to make and then find good information and resources. Because we have a lot in our community. So we encourage... We have a website that has lots of good free information, it's emphasize free, to get the conversation going, understand about this. I mentioned advanced care planning, advanced directive, the document you can do for free to indicate who your person is. So we encourage people to go to the website, learn about the resources that are available. And the other important thing is our let's talk story program, which goes out to where people work, live, and pray to get conversations going. And this is over the last two years with the exponential leap in requests. We did, for instance, 38 talks in faith communities last year. People who can in a safe environment start discussing not just who, not just the form, but the conversations around it. When I look back at my mom, we knew what she wanted because she talked to us and we could carry that with us, especially after she wasn't able to speak for herself. So it's the conversations. The documents are important and the conversations are where this has to start. So we see over and over again, we got to start these conversations, do it early. In Kukua Mau, we have this Speaker's Bureau. We have 17 volunteers who are mostly professionals who do this as a job and then choose to go out to talk with people about this. So we really hope that people will, you know, hey, my Rotary Club needs a talk or oh, my church or my temple could do that. My mom's book club is always looking for speakers. We're there to try to get these conversations going. You know, the second thing we do is we're very people-centered. That's also very local, right? We want to talk to people. I don't want to just go online and hear about that. I want to talk to people and who are you? Oh, you're related to these people. Oh, okay. You took care of my mom? Great. The second thing is how do we help professionals? So we have a lot of training opportunities for professionals because this is not easy. So we want professionals to feel like they have places to go to hone their skills, up their game, get more comfortable with these important conversations. And the final thing we look at is policy. Like, can we, for instance, HMSA has really good policy around in-home palliative care. So does UHA, two health plans that deserve a shout-out because they're really trying to work on this continuum of care. Working with them, really, for us, makes a difference. And that's why inside of our movement we can work with long-term care. We can work with hospice, hospitals, all sorts of folks where we can try and get the policies in line so that the right thing to do is the easy thing to do. So for us, you know, it's a continuum. So start early with having these conversations. Learn about the resources. See what's out there. And so that, you know, when life happens, you can feel more prepared. It's never easy, but I can tell you it's so much better to at least have in place, okay, this is what mom wanted. This is who mom wanted to speak for her. Let's all be in this together as we try and honor this person who is so important to us. And how do we keep that going? And I will say also, you know, we're caring for our loved ones and we care for ourselves. And how do we make sure that we, as the, you know, we also can carry with us in good, in a good job and did what was right. Because the person impacted and the family both mattered. You know, after the break, we're going to explore the next steps, advance care directive for planning and as folks person that starts early in adulthood, but there are other phases as life goes on. So we'll rejoin you after the break. Again, this is Much More Medicine with our guest, Jeanette Kojain from Kukul Amal. This is Think Tech Hawaii, raising public awareness. It's choose to treat it with the help of a physical therapist. Physical therapists treat pain through movement and exercise. No warning labels required and you get to actively participate in your care. Choose to improve your health without the risks of opioids. Wendy Lo, and I'm coming to you every other Tuesday at 2 o'clock, live from Think Tech Hawaii, and on our show, we talk about taking your health back. And what does that mean? It means mind, body and soul. Anything you can do that makes your body healthier and happier is what we're going to be talking about. Whether it's spiritual health, mental health, fascia health, beautiful smile health, whatever it means, let's take healthy back. Hello. Welcome back.  Excuse me. That was not good. Kojain from Kukul Amal. And before the break, we are talking about the importance of having something to speak for you when you cannot and to make your wishes clear and also have a written document of what you're looking for because life is full of good and bad things, and in the end, we all become more frail. So as an ER doc, we really love having resource to know what a person would want in a circumstance. And we usually don't. And it's all of our responsibility. I think the medical profession is bad at addressing our limitations, and our limitation is no one's going to live forever and we can't fix a lot of things. None of us want to admit that, but it's true. And people's limitation is similar. I'm going to live forever even though nobody else did. And besides that, I'm indestructible. And we need to get past that. And so I think that your focus on how to get the right care to maximize life's both health and satisfaction is key. So we talked about how you start when you're a young adult, a young healthy person, what happens as life goes on? Right. So as life goes on, it's really important to continue to think about who is it that's going to speak for me. Life happens. What's interesting in our work, as I said, we're out in the community talking with people. And a lot of people say, oh, you know, I did that already. It's in my will. It's in my trust. I did. So we have a two-session approach.  I can't tell you the number of stories that people have.  So I've changed that. Or, you know, I had two people and both of them have died. Yeah. Or, you know, so I think it's important to keep it as a living document. But it's also really important to think about the conversations around things like, how do you like to make decisions? Do you like lots of information? Not so much information. Are you, what is the role that you want your doctors to play? What do you want your loved ones to do? What do you do when your loved ones are confronted with making a decision that they think is right that may not have been what you run? So all of those kind of things come into the conversations we have with people. And one of the, you know, one of the good things that comes out of these conversations, not only do families get to talk and people get to break the ice, we get to tell people about the resources that are available. And I think there's a lot of misunderstanding around hospice and palliative care. Let's talk about both those things. Okay. So palliative care is a specialty that helps people have serious illness, but may still be doing curative treatments. And that addresses, in a team, a team approach, Dr. Nure's social work chaplain is the usual team. It helps the person and their loved ones to address the suffering they may be facing. So this could be the physical suffering, pain, shortness of breath, but it can also be the emotional, spiritual suffering. And that often is the most important thing and can cause very physical manifestations. So it's really important. Or even suicide. Cancer diagnosis is associated with suicide, for example. You know what's really interesting to me is 10 or 15 years ago, it was sort of viewed in the medical profession. We don't have a lot to be proud of here. Oh, you can have the full court press or you can have palliative care at the hospice. And that's, of course, a false choice. That's right. You can have appropriate care and palliative care. And at some stage, hospice. And interestingly, people actually do better physically in that circumstance, which kind of tells you we were doing the wrong stuff before. Yeah. So go ahead. You know, I think it's great for people to know about palliative care and to ask for a consult if you're in a hospital, look for the in-home palliative care, the one that I mentioned before, supportive care from HMSA or concurrent care from UHA. And I think it's really, in terms of hospice, I've never had anybody say, oh, I'm so sorry I called hospice. What they say is, I wish I'd called hospice earlier.  Why did I need to be in hospice before I had a team to manage the situation, manage the meds, figure out what was going on, show up to take care of somebody well. And I think that that's, you know, why is it? It's really a, for me it's just such a huge gap that we have to wait until you're in palliative care or in hospice before you get medicine the way it's supposed to be. And I talked to doctors, nurses, social workers, who are like, this is why I went into this field, that we can take care of all of the suffering that the person has, as well as what their family's going through, their loved ones are going through, that you can look at, you know, how to support the family along this journey. And then of course, after somebody dies as well. So hospice totally underutilized benefit and often totally misunderstood that I, you know, I appreciate your help in getting the word out about how great it is.  Our mission generally is misinterpreted as prolonging life. That's not the same thing. And so we're bad at it and it's just like people don't want to fill out regular wills, no one wants to look forward but you need to plan for it. And just from my perspective in the ER, life would be a lot better for many people if these plans were in place. Interestingly, information alone is not enough because although doctors say, oh, I don't want whatever done. I don't want to open the ICU. And honestly, I think they don't. But they're not very good at putting their plans out there. And guess what? We end up in the ICU at the terminal event as much as anybody. And so we all need help with this. Right. Let's talk about hospice and then the new development. Legally, we should talk a little bit also. Sure, sure. So how does hospice work? So hospice is for someone who has a six month or less diagnosis and is for someone who's stopped curative treatments. So that's a difference with palliative care. Palliative care, you can still be, you know, so for instance, doing that last round of chemotherapy, but you can get the team that comes in. Hospice is a type of palliative care where they also have that team approach, but you're not doing any more curative treatments. Again, the emphasis, like you said, is on quality of life, support for the person, support for the family, and making sure that those symptoms and the suffering is managed as best as possible. Most people misunderstand hospice that it's a place to go to. The vast majority, 90 plus percent of hospice is at home. So you invite them into your home, you hire them to come in and work with the people that are there. So I think that that is very important. And for people who are suffering, you know, hospice can be there in two hours. Hospice can be on your couch this afternoon telling you what they can offer, how to enroll, all the major health, everybody covers it, so it's a covered benefit. And they can come in with that extra layer of support.  Somebody else is helping to manage what's going on. And you get this team support. Well, I wanted to weigh in on something you said, which you said, cessation of curative care. We are actually not talking curative care anymore when people go into hospice. We're talking at best, shall we say, temporizing care. And in fact, interestingly, patients tend to live longer in hospice than the same patients would getting that next round of chemotherapy or whatever it is to live longer. And they clearly live better. So people think this is a choice between something beneficial and something end of life. And what it really is, is a choice between more intervention that is highly unlikely to be beneficial and quite likely to be harmful and supportive care that actually does improve and can extend life. So it's not an either, it's not a, shall we say, zero-sum game. That's right. And it's not straightforward. If it was straightforward, you know this as an ER doc. It's, no, there are decisions to be made. And again, if we can put the people at the center like hospice and palliative care does and help support them along this journey to make sure that they're getting the best care possible, we say the right care at the right time in the right place, that's really the goal. And sometimes those conversations are not happening with the regular doctor. So kudos to my colleagues who are palliative care doctors or hospice professionals, because they actually are so good at having those difficult conversations that can really just make such a difference in terms of how people are cared for. There are really tough conversations to have at the moment of extraneous in the emergency department and we don't have any relationship up until that moment. So we're thrilled when this has occurred beforehand. There's a new law, which honestly I think has a small niche to play. I think it's important. People have ownership over their own health and lives, but I think that it's a small piece. Why don't you tell us about it? Yeah, so I would encourage people to go to our website. You can read about, it's called the Our Care, Our Choice Act. And there's a lot of information there. Also, the Department of Health has a good website. It's a complex topic and we're coming to the end of time. I would really encourage people, if people come and say, I want to know about this, first of all, figure out, is somebody in incredible pain or suffering right now, in which case call hospice immediately, look to your doctors, deal with that now. And if people want to know about it, there's good information out there to start that process, because it's a pretty complex topic. But we would really, for us, our goal is how do we care well for people? As you say, about maybe 40 people will ask for it. 10,000 people die every year and all of those people can be in hospice care. So it's really important that people understand about all the end-of-life options. Absolutely. Why don't you describe the resources available on your website? How do you can engage speakers or other resource? Because I agree. It's appropriate planning, appropriate discussion, sharing the load, so to speak, is key. Right. So it's kakoua.mau.org. And you can see on the website we have stuff on advanced care planning. So that talks about the advanced directives, again, free advanced directives, then also materials on getting the conversations started. We have a starter kit for that, questions around CPR, tube feeding, all those kind of things that come up that people need to be better informed about. We also have listings of palliative care providers here in the state where it's available, and then all the hospice providers are listed there. So there's a lot of good information. And again, my suggestion is for people, give us a call, schedule a talk. We're the ones who figure out how to broach this difficult subject, get things going, and we come in with the experts to try to, you know, to get the conversation going. So I really hope that people will contact us and we look forward to working with anybody. I hope they contact you too, and I really appreciate you coming today. Well, thank you. Thank you all. This is Jeanette Kojain from Kokua Mau, and thank you for joining us.


be able to order grocery delivery from Amazon Fresh without needing a prime subscription. You recently posted about being disappointed with Amazon Fresh. The last three times I've ordered Amazon Fresh, it has been bad is how I would, I would use that word to describe it. Substituting things that weren't really the right substitution like grapefruits instead of oranges telling me that they were out of water, like not even offering me like, well, we don't have this gallon of water. Do you want bottles of water? Just like, no, we don't have any water. It would be good for them to write the ship. I do love the idea of unified. I sometimes have to choose like, well, actually I want a couple of things from Whole Foods. So I'll give up on a couple of these other items that they don't have at Whole Foods and vice versa.
