Did you way back at the start and talk to the manufacturer of your product and go, what process have you got? How do I need to design this board so you can make it and make it reliably? A lot of people don't think about that at the beginning discipline. Then go round theharad, to design for manufacturer. You will need to purchase all your components in advance and do what comes from a free issue, which is that you give your components to the manufacturer and hope that they don't break. If at this point you want to really move on with your project all very good and you have everything together and do 95% of the ideas that started out on this process never make it this ac efallai yn y rhaid i'r gweithio, oes 50% yn cymryd ar y cyflawn.

You've got some pre-made PCBs, which your PCB house has finally made for you and tested and they think it'll work. You've got all your components which you've gone out and bought and spent vast sums of money on, and you've got all of your design data which is which components go where, which way around, how often, and so on. And you're going to take this to your manufacturing house and they're going to, well, charge you even more money before they'll start. First up, they need to take your board and make the components stick to it. To do this, we use solder. Most of you have probably seen solder, it comes in reels, get it hot with the soldering iron, it melts, stick components together. Soldering is joining one metal device to another, in this case, components to the board. To make this easier for the manufacturing process, we use solder paste, which is a little sort of pasty goo, which can be worked with in a very narrow temperature band around 25 degrees Celsius. I'm afraid I've not converted that to Fahrenheit for you, LeMont. The paste is made from an alloy of tin, silver, copper, and other trace metals. It used to be made of tin and lead, but we're not allowed to do that anymore. And these are all held together in an organic binding matrix, lovely term for glue. The paste looks a bit like that. Comes in tubs, that little tub there, about yay high, weighs half a kilo, and yay. Costs about $100 as well. It's this sort of goopy paste, a little bit like the consistency of toothpaste, but for God's sake, don't brush with it. 30 micron balls of toxic metal is not a good thing to be rubbing into your mouth. Paste then has to be got onto a board. And to do that, we use something called a solder mask. Somewhere we have a solder mask. And basically it's exactly the same process as how your t-shirts have been made. There's a screen which has holes in it, which paste goes through onto a board. Again, another friendly company will make that for you. They're lovely people, and they'll charge you between $400 and $500 for one of those. Every time you need one. If you change your board, you're going to need more than one. The mask gets placed into a large metal frame, tensioned, and put into a machine ready for use. Which means, of course, that we need a machine to paste the board with. You can do it by hand, but actually sitting there with a toothpick, putting solder paste onto surface mount pads is really tedious. So this is a picture of our pasting machine on our prototyping line. It will take the board in on its swanky little moving table, lift it up to the solder paste mask, tension it, squeegee the solder paste all over it, and then bring it back out very carefully for you. This whole process takes about 45 seconds. So there's an instant limitation on the speed with which you can manufacture. And doing it by hand is much, much, much slower. So we've now got some boards, and they're sticky with solder paste, and ready to go. So in order to do this, we need lots of components, and lots of components generally come on something called reels. Reels look like that, and they need feeders to feed them to the machines, and feeders look like that. Or in a little rack, they can look a bit like that. Each feeder will cost between $250 and $300, and it can cost up to $600 for a feeder which is qualified for componentry, which is 0402, which is the size two below the components that you have stuck to your paper. Those are the ones we use. Each pick-and-place machine has between 50 and 75 feeders on average, but we'll see. Some components obviously can't come on reels. They come on trays, which look a bit like that. And trays, generally you'll get CPUs, memory chips, flash, that kind of thing will come in trays. There's some strong-arm CPUs. You must love these. No. Unfortunately, with minimal water quantities, the number of CPUs that you buy tends to be a little bigger than you want. For $14 CPU, $15 CPU, might come in a minimum order of $200, meaning that you've got to spend $3,000 on CPUs, even if you want to make one board. Then some components come in tubes. We have a tube. I'm sure of it. There we go. Because they're awkward. And tubes need a special kind of feeder called a vibrator. And vibrators, unfortunately, cannot be used afterwards. Well, they can in the machines. Then each pick-and-place line will have several machines. Our line has three. And each machine has a number of pickup heads. These pick up the components and put them down on the board. A multi-threaded machine will pick up multiple components at once in what we call a cord. And this reduces the amount of movement that the head has to make.  And so we have a system which is called an upward visioning system. Because unsurprisingly enough, it's a camera that points up and looks at things. And that counts the balls, measures the component exactly, works out any variation in how the component was picked up, and allows you to precision-place a component on the board. The ball grid array that you can see on your sheets, 17x17 grid at 0.8mm between the balls, that's centre to centre, needs to be placed with a 0.1mm accuracy. And that's a big balled BGA. We have some BGAs that have to be placed with an accuracy of 10 times that. And therefore you need expensive visioning. The cheaper components, the smaller things, can just be looked at with a camera, or lasered, more lasers. Before they're picked up by these little pickup heads, and moved over, and put down on the board. The heads use a Bernouy vacuum effect to lift the components out of the feeders, carry them over, and drop them down onto the board. And this is known as the blow-off, yeah? Yeah, it's called puff-off, yeah? Okay, the puff-off. Obviously, doing one of these is easy. Doing lots and lots and lots of them is less easy. And you have a system called a pick-and-place programme. It's a really grand term for move that one there, then move that one there, then move that one there. And if you're really lucky, pick up 10 of those and put them in a line. Pick-and-place programmes are very specific to the line that they run on, the components that you're using, the boards, probably the time of day, the phase of the moon and stuff. And manufacturers will either write the programme for you, and charge you lots of money for it, or tell you what to do so that you can write the programme for them and charge you lots of money for it. The pick-and-place programme can be replicated, so if you have a biscuit, you write one pick-and-place programme for that, and you say there are three in a row. And if you're lucky, your machine will do it. Here you can see one of our pick-and-place machines picking up components from the feeders, which have their reels, and putting it down on a board just here. There are eight boards in that biscuit, and it's making a USB device of some kind, I believe. Now you've got a board with all of its surface mount components put on it. Well, we think they're all on it, so we need to check it. And that needs an optical inspection station. In this instance, what we're doing is we are looking for missing components, components which the machine might have fumbled and dropped on the floor or something. We are looking for the wrong component in the right place, the right component in the wrong place, the right component in the right place, the wrong way round, and various other games which the machines like to play. One of their particular favourites is tiddlywinks. They like to take components, put them down on the board, and then ping them somewhere else. This is because components are as small as a quarter of a millimetre tall. So they've not got much mass. You blow them down into the solder paste, and if the solder paste doesn't quite grab them, they might ping off somewhere else on your board. This is all great until one of them pings under your £20, that's $40 BGA, meaning that it won't solder to your board properly. And you can't see it because it's underneath the BGA, and the BGA is down, and it looks like it might be in the right place, so you've got to try. The machinery to do this inspection is a sophisticated non-contact scanner capable of scanning an entire board and then a lot of software that will do a comparison between a board that you know to be good and the board that you've made. Unfortunately, it needs an extremely powerful machine to do this in any reasonable amount of time, and it's not very good at it. This really is an instance where a human being is quicker and better than a machine. So we have a Gary. Gary is our process engineer, and there's Gary looking at some boards, same kind of boards that the pick-and-place machine was just placing. As you can see, he has a big magnifying glass for a head, and his arm is made out of trays. We then need to cook the components to the board. What this is doing is melting the solder and therefore joining the components to the board. We have a machine that does this. It looks a bit like a pizza oven, but if you put pizza in it, then our hardware engineer will come around and put your head in it. It has several zones inside it maintained using what is called forced air reflow. Each zone must have its temperature very carefully set so that as the board passes through the oven at a particular pace, it will go through a particular temperature curve and therefore melt the solder without blowing components up. The air flow has to be exactly right so that it doesn't blow the components off the board.  And then it will separate the binding agent from the solder and in the case of the solder the paste that we use, that then basically disintegrates, turns into harmless molecules, gets passed through an activated carbon filter and goes somewhere else. So we have to do this, correctly soldering all the components to the board without losing or damaging any of them. To do this, we have a machine which looks a bit like this and as you can see it has a computer to control it. Here you can see the temperature zones. I think there aren't any boards in it at the moment. The most important thing on any of these machines is the emergency stop button for when you've got your hand in it. When the board comes out of the end of the oven, it's still very hot so you have to let it cool down before you look at it again. So that's another optical inspection station. Then you've got to put all of the components that couldn't be surface mount placed onto your board. There are many different kinds of through-hole components. Typically they are ones which have leads on them so LEDs, dips, that kind of thing. And we are going to overrun, by the way. So if you have to run away, please remember to put your rubbish at the front but it's lunchtime next to you, you don't have to run. And there are connectors, so VGA connectors, parallel connectors, that kind of thing. And on our case study, we've got great big connectors because we've got parallel ports and all sorts of things.  But just to confuse you, that's a Gavin doing it instead. It's very important that all the components are in the right places the right way round. The legs have to be trimmed because they're about to go through a machine which, if they're not, the board will foul on it and cause all sorts of problems. So to do that, we need some solder. And we have a nice machine called a flow solverer which has within it a standing wave of molten metal. Mmm, yummy. Boards are placed into a tensioned carrier. They get waveguides and cleaning spans and so on put on them and then they get put into a machine. The machine looks a bit like that. This is a baby machine. The carrier gets introduced to the machine at this end and comes out at that end. So first up, we need to make sure the solder will stick to the board. To do that, we use a substance called flux which is an organic solvent. It gets sprayed onto the board. So don't breathe it or your lungs might disintegrate. And what happens is the board gets passed over a fluxer which goes ahead and squirts flux all over the board. The boards then pass into a preheating stage where they're raised to about 100 degrees Celsius and then passed over a standing wave of molten metal. Molten metal, standing wave. There's about 120 kilograms of solder in our soldering machine. The solder is held at 260 degrees Celsius which is 491 Fahrenheit. I converted that one for you, LeMont. And it costs $2,000 to fill that machine with solder. It costs $15 every time you turn the machine on and about $5 an hour to run it. It takes that much energy to keep that much metal melted. The solder has to be checked for purity regularly and interesting chemicals that you really don't want to deal with are added to it at various times to make sure that the bath stays exactly right. Since the boards have to be fluxed, heated and soldered, there is an absolute maximum rate of about one frame of boards a minute and this is a completely human intensive task.  This means that you have another friendly process engineer looking after your flow soldering machine or you have Gary. Again, once that's done you've got a visual inspection to do. You need to make sure that there are no solder bridges. That is solder that has joined pins together that it shouldn't have. You need to clip any of the remaining long legs so that they don't stab people and you need to hand solder any of the components that you couldn't flow solder because while flow soldering is great, it is not a be all and end all, large connectors have too much thermal mass to be flow soldered. So you have to hand solder them because quite frankly you cannot get them up to temperature otherwise. This is all done by your process engineer or Gary. So very well and good saying all that. How much does that lot cost us? Well, economics one on one. We have a solder paste machine imported out at the beginning. He looks a bit like that. Costs you $30,000. Then you've got to pick and place line. Well, we've got three of those machines. Each of them is $200,000 each. Then you need to add these feeders at $300 a time and they're $50, $60 on a machine. It's $200 for the line usually and you need to double them up because you need spares in case when those run out you need to stop the machine and put a spare on and if you have to reel up in whilst the machine is stopped you're losing money on the production line. So that lot comes to $750,000. Then you've got the optical inspection stations. We've already said they're not terribly good. We do have some and they're about, we have a Gary actually, but they're about $20,000 each and you need a couple of them usually. Reflow oven. Ours is quite a small one. That was the one we saw earlier. He only costs about $30,000. Flow soldering machine. We saw really? Pretty metal. That's another $40,000 and of course a couple of thousand dollars to actually put the solar in the thing. Support machinery because all of this lot needs compressors, vacuum systems, air scrubbers because you're producing toxic gases and all the other building to put it in people, that sort of thing, set you back another $130,000. Your friendly manufacturing engineering is priceless and for everything else there's Gary. I'll try and pick this up a little bit. Our manufacturing case study, we have about 800 components on the board. Yes, I've run out of time. This means that this is extra bonus talk that you're getting for free, which is something you don't get with hardware manufacture. We have about 30 through-hole components including very large connectors and a manufacturing house in terms of prototyping runs will typically charge you about 10 cents to place those little small components but they'll give them to you because they only cost a hundredth of a cent each. They'll cost charge you about 20 cents to place the medium devices such as, I don't know, the RAM chips and probably up to 40 cents or more for the large devices such as your processor and this is quite simply because they take longer to place and you have to have a more expensive machinery to do it. They have to make their million dollars back. All of these prices are obviously prototyping runs as you move into production size runs you can probably knock about 25% off that but that's not a lot. You have to choose your manufacturing process. This is all about whether or not the lines run hot or cold. As we talked about earlier the datasheets give you all sorts of physical information about the components. What the component must be in order to solder properly. Another one they give you is how hot the component will be before it explodes. Often these are inverted because datasheets are really good. So the concept of a cold process is one which runs the bottom of that curve.  So once you're done you have nice shiny board with all sorts of components on and connectors and power input and video output and hard drives and all sorts of things and it's really good. However the board that comes back has no guarantees attached to it. Basically any faults that the manufacturing process has introduced are your fault. They're your problem and you have to pay for them anyway.  So I hope you've got a lot of money or really good insurance. Unsalvageable hardware that is broken beyond repair is yours to absorb the cost of and you bought the chips you bought the boards and you still have to pay for them to be placed. Here's an example of an unsalvageable board. This board took a bath in the solder. So it has solder all over it and you really don't want this to happen because one it ruins your board and two it has a tendency to pull components off the board and into the solder. Which means they have to stop their soldering line clean the machine and you get charged for that as well. You have to test each board fully. I'm not going to over stress this too much but it is very good practice to test the board when it comes back by putting software onto it. It is possible to buy pre-programmed parts that is flash chips with your software already and don't get to go through the full test process. Often if you manufacture like that you don't notice until an entire batch goes out with the chip soldered the wrong way round and your customer comes back and complains a lot. Here is one of our boards under test. Unfortunately we haven't got the audio test plugged in but you can see serial console, USB, there's a whole bunch of serial ports there some ethernet, some power. That power cable is a bit complicated because it's got some testing equipment built into it video output and this little ribbon cable here is JTAG which we mentioned earlier. This board will actually be brought up from raw straight off the manufacturing line all the way through to full functional test. I'm told I'm still at zero. I know I'm at zero. Why are you running out of tape? You didn't make negative signs you just weren't thinking ahead. So test every board it's not good enough to test one board within a batch because variance within a batch exists. We have all sorts of things that I could say about that but I'm being told to skip. So you take your boards you package your product and hopefully you can sell to the unsuspecting public and profit. Unfortunately up until now you haven't been able to sell anything. You've dispersed around about $40,000 in terms of PCBs, components paying to have them placed at your own time and in your hands you have up to 10 prototype boards which you can't sell each of which is worth about $4,000. It's worth nothing but it cost you $4,000. You also have assuming you've gone to production a minimum of 200 production boards because anything smaller than that they're not going to do in a production run for you and each of those will have cost you about $130 for our case study and there have been about $5,000 of non-refundable engineering costs at the beginning of that.  Good luck. I'll try and be quick here. There are some sensible ways to cut the costs in all of this. You can use module hardware such as one of our modules you can also use other modules like the balloon and there are lots of modules on the market lots out there if you look hard. Popular components but not too popular. We had a problem last year where the Nand chips in one of our products we couldn't get hold of them because Apple bought a lot of those out and Samsung who sell them their flash bought every single piece of Nand on the market including Infinion's, Heinex's and everybody else's and then rebadged them as their own. So not too popular. If you designed for a manufacturer from the start as we suggested you don't have to go through the whole prototype phase again and again so it's cheaper. Use the right people in the right ways. What we're saying here is that if you've got a Gary, if you've got a clever hardware engineer who knows his job you can reduce the costs quite rapidly and you don't have as much wastage. It's a good thing. I have more to say but we have it at a time. Open hardware designs are easy, useful and good ideas. We have produced because we think they're good ideas we've produced our first open hardware design you can come and have a look at the schematic in a bit. It's the same module pen out as the modules we've all got at the moment which means obviously a modular design is a lot, so we're suggesting is a lot here, easy to integrate and the connector for that is a couple of dollars so they're really easy to put down on board and play with and do things with what we would like. I get to say things again. Very quickly this is a physical process. It has a physical impact. The environment is fairly boring but it's kind of really important. I am 10 from red cheese. I'm getting nought points now. We produce quite a lot of waving I can't land. Lots of solder waste and lots of metal waste from all of these components that you have to clip legs off. Solder waste looks a bit like that, that's Gary's little pot. Solder waste goes back to our solder suppliers and about 50% of what we give them as waste comes back to us as solder. About 80% of what they have left goes out to other manufacturing people as different things like oxides different substances which they can then use in different chemical processes so it's actually really well recycled. Scrap wire, we keep in a nice cream tub because it tastes nice can be recycled like any other metallic waste like you might recycle your tins from your food and there's lots of board wastage or salvage. We can give them to unsuspecting people at talks but they have to give them back and generally they get built up and returned to the PCB houses I believe for them to recycle and I have no idea what they do with them, maybe they build houses or make robots or something. That is one month of salvage with my shoe next to it so you can see how big the pile is and then we get trays reels tapes all sorts of things which are rubbish. Trays are basically graphite and you can use them in the winter. Reels, plastic everything else, plastic paper simple to recycle. You have to build smarter not harder obviously if you make your design carefully you're going to have less wastage and that's very important because if your PCB is hard to make half the PCBs you get back won't work and that's all waste so if it's hard to manufacture half the stuff you get back might not work and that's all waste so be good at it and you make less waste then there's this fantastic thing called ROHS or Rosh which basically says no you may not use nasty chemicals you must use these nasty chemicals instead because they are worse or something it essentially means to us that we can't use lead in the majority of what we do there are exemptions to this such as medical military and so on where you can because they don't want to pay the extra but lead free processes are more expensive but at least you can sell them in more places so you may as well give up and go home because as Douglas Adams said it makes you wonder why we came down from the trees in the first place so dependent on whether or not you want to stay around we'll take questions the answers are 42 if they're not we can't guarantee to have the answers if we have them they might not be correct and whatever way they'll be very very expensive thank you


Hey guys, all right, so I have these three little small canvases from Michael's either these are the artist loft brand and they are Six by six so they're not an expensive brand of canvas by any stretch and Sometimes when you buy the lesser expensive canvases there, they're a little bit loose or wrinkly on the top So what I do is I spray the back of the canvas with some water and then turn it over and start my painting Usually doing this when this as this dries it tightens up the fabric on the canvas in this case I sprayed it with water on the back turned it over Painted the front with a coat of white paint and as it was drying it tightened up very nicely and you can no longer see any Wrinkling so that's how I started this project as you can see we have three of them So we're going to try to create a triptych I am intrigued by the idea of mid-century modern abstract style paintings which have been Obsession with designers all over the internet For kind of for a while now, and I'm going to take a bunch of my stencils from my stencil line and I will Try to remember to list them all below, but I'll for sure have the Etsy store links so you can look and We're going to try to create something Yeah Google mid-century modern abstract painting and you'll see what I mean I'm going to use sort of ocean-y inspired colors blues Sandy colors a little yellow some pale greens Maybe even a pale pink. I've got some options here. I've got some modeling paste So we're going to see where it goes. I'm going to fast forward through most of it and I'll be back Okay, that was a lot of fun. Um at the end there you saw that I um held up to the camera a favorite castile brush pen This was one in a dark gray rather than black and this is warm gray number 274 um I can see doing this again. This was a lot of fun Uh, I really enjoyed myself and Getting the stencils on there Semi perfectly is always a challenge. You saw me touching up a few edges and corners That being said, I love the way they turned out. I'm going to let them dry and let it go I can see me doing this again. I hope it gives you some sort of different ideas of things you could do This would make an interesting journal page, by the way So that might be my next thing is doing this on a journal page So anyway, give it a try. See what you think google mid-century modern abstract art and see what you what pops up and what inspires you to create Um in your art studio or your art room or in your journal or whatever All right, that's it for today Don't forget to go out and do something nice for yourself because you deserve it Check out the video description for relevant links and don't forget to like share and subscribe And I will see you in the next video. Bye guys

And before I go any further talking about the very cool product pick this week, I'm gonna have Lady Aida jump back in time a little bit to, I think, maybe the end of December it was, and introduce this for us. So take it away, Lady Aida. Kido is a Scorpio, so this is... Scorpio. So this is an RP2040, and this board is feather shaped. It has all the feather pins that you know and love. But on the end there, there's another two by eight header. One row is ground, the other is eight contiguous pins connected to the PIO state machine inside. And they're contiguous, and so they're really good for driving lots of NeoPixels, especially since the RP2040 has 264K of RAM. So there's a ton of RAM. It's got the PIO state machine, which is excellent for driving NeoPixels. It's a dual core, so of course you could have all your... In addition to having all your NeoPixels DMA, you could have two cores if you wanted to do extra computation on one core and then blit in the other one and maybe get wifi data or something and use that to calculate or adjust what the graphics should be shown on your NeoPixels are. But the RP2040 makes for a perfect NeoPixel driver. And so this board is basically designed specifically for, you want a feather, you want an RP2040, you wanna drive a ton of NeoPixels and we've got Arduino and circuit Python code that does that again, all with DMA.  The RPIO peripheral goes off and does it and you can check when it's done and then you can compute the next frame of data. So on the left hand side, you get the business end, USB-C battery, the reset button, regulator, battery charging, middle is the RP2040 chip. There's a small NeoPixel on D4 if you want to have onboard notification to tell you what the status is. There's eight megabytes of flash memory so you can use that for your program storage or of course, both in Arduino and circuit Python, you can put a file system on it if you want to have images and configuration data, what have you stored on that flash memory? There's tons of flash memory. Boot button for entering into boot mode that's also available as a user button. I think it's on GPIO 7. So you can once the RP2040 is booted, that button becomes a user input button. There's a vertical STEMI QT pin and then below that you see a chip and some resistor packs. That is the logic level shifter. So even though a lot of modern NeoPixel strips are happy with three-volt logic, not all of them are, especially if you're giving them 5.5 volts of power. And so there's an onboard logic level shifter that'll take those eight signal pins and shift them up. I think it's pins 16 to 23. So those GPIOs get shifted up from three volts to five volts, whatever is on the USB port. And then there's 100 ohm resistors just to kind of reduce any ringing effect, especially with long wires going into your NeoPixels. And then on the back, if you look at a quarter shot, there is, if you happen to want to configure it, on the back you can change the VLogic, the logic level output from five volts to three volts, say you don't want to drive five volts signal into something you're driving non NeoPixels or something that requires a lower level voltage. And also you can change the direction of that shifter. It's nominally only output, but if you want to turn this into, say, a logic analyzer, you can change the direction to be inputs and it's five volts safe because it's using a five volts safe level shifter. And then that signal could come in and you could turn this into, say, like an eight channel logic analyzer and use some open source software to do so. But we really think this would be great for people making LED art because we've seen a lot of art projects in New York and online where people have massive displays of NeoPixels. Oftentimes using unfortunately chips and microcontrollers are no longer available or they're very hard to get right now, but the RP2040 is really easy to get. So we think using the NeoPixelate library that we've got or you can even, because this chip has enough RAM and is pretty fast, you can use the NeoPixelate HDR library and that adds dithering, some pixel subsampling which basically means that not only do you get that eight bits per color, 24 bits per pixel color, but you also get another two by doing some temporal dithering. Very good for when you're doing gamma correction or you have low brightness LEDs. A lot of people notice that because the LED brightness is linearly PWM'd, but our eye is kind of a logarithmic. LEDs that are at the lower brightness level, the brightness shifts change more dramatically than at the higher level. With dithering, you get an extra couple of bits. It smooths that out and makes it a little bit more of an elegant distribution at the lower brightness levels. All right, and that's a score. I love PT whispering, that's a score. Kiddo is a Scorpio, so let's see. I can't get enough of that. So first of all, if you were wondering where that discount went, Angelica from New Products just went and updated that, so it is live now, so sorry for any consternation or confusion there, but we're all set on a big juicy discount on this week's product pick. Here it is, check this out. Look at this beautiful board. Even the trace routing is stylish on the back of this, huh? Look at that, Scorpio, little tail section there. I like this passive that's on the RP20, zero. But let me fire this one up for a dramatic introduction to this, this right here, that's the product pick of the week this week. It is the Feather RP2040 Scorpio. It's an eight channel neopixel drive-in feather, so we can use the neopixel eight library inside of Arduino and in circuit Python to really beautifully quickly animate neopixel LEDs up to eight strips or rings of them, and it's all using a PIO state machine, programmable IO, so it really leaves the other processing free for you to do other stuff on the board, such as read inputs or write to displays. So really, really excellent DMA over these eight channels that are broken out especially just for neopixels. Let's see, what more can I say about it? Let's, first of all, let me jump over to, there's the page right there, I wanted to show you that that now has a 50% off discount. So for $7.25, unbelievable, mind blown, you can get what is, first of all, just a heck of a great feather. It has USB-C on it, it has battery charging, it has all of the normal feather pins that you've known to, you've come to know and love. CRP2040 chip, it's got a ton of RAM on it, ton of storage on it, and it has these eight consecutive pins broken out right on the tail there so that we can hook that up to different types of connectors to run our neopixel strips. So let's, first of all, jump into, how about this? Let me show you a little down view here and take that screen off of there, there we go. So in it, I don't have all of them here, but we do pack in a couple of really great double pin header rows, double row eight pin headers. So this one here is this nice right angle one, that's the one I've got set up on the one that Lars is elevating up to the skies with. So that can go in a couple of different ways, but this is a nice one right here, just off to the edge and you can plug in an IDC connector into that, you can plug pins into that from sort of single header pins if you want. We also, I forgot mine, but here's, I've mocked one up with two normal sets of headers, but we pack in there a double row of straight header pins so you can plug something straight in from the top, depending on your configuration that you're using. And the, if you check out the learn guide here, you'll see some explanation of some of those methods of connecting. So you can see here a whole bunch of neopixel strips, it doesn't have to be strips, it could be other configurations, but strips are nice and pretty typical. Here are the head out and you'll see at the bottom of the usual feather pin out diagram, we have all of these GPIOs that are reserved just for this use. Now, looking at the bottom of the board, as Leigh Data mentioned, you've got a couple of jumpers there that are configured for the most typical use, which is your outputting using five volt logic. And that presumes that you are driving your neopixels from five volts, either just a few of them from the USB five volt on here, but more typically from an external power supply. So I've got a five volt, 10 amp power brick running this one right here. You can, however, use three volt logic and there's a jumper you can cut for that. And you can also change these from outputs to inputs. So if you wanted to use this for something such as a logic analyzer, you can use all eight of those pins as inputs instead of outputs. So let's, if you keep looking in here, we've got this little section on assembly. This will show you how to put together your usual header stuff. You've got same choices you always do with those. However, if you look at this eight by IO section down at the bottom there, we've got those are a row, it's actually two rows, if you look at those, see the ones that are numbered there, that's on the bottom view of it. Those are the IO, the eight IO pins. They're actually zero through seven. We're just, one is cut off in that view there.  So you can use those to ground all of your strips. And then if you look at some of these options here that Phil B put together, here's a really nice setup where he's got some, an eight by two row IDC header, which is then this ribbon cable being split out into a bunch of logic or rather data and ground. And then he's got separate power for those and then a DC power supply. I'll show you how I've got this Lars one setup in a second, but first what I wanted to do is show you something kind of cool. You can, when you're testing these out, let me put a little view of my down shooter there. I'll try to stay out of the way. So if I take, that's not it, if I take, that's a different feather. If I take this one here, I'm gonna just, since I've got some torque, I can get some torque on this. I can actually just temporarily, this is not a good idea. Don't do this, but I've done it. Since I didn't wanna solder this one in yet on the second one, what I'm gonna do is I'm just gonna set it like that. I'm going to pull power on this feather here. And I will try to lift this up so you can see. So here you can see I've got a feather running to a ribbon cable. And I'll show you this full setup in a second, but first what I'll do is I'm just gonna plug this one in. This has some different code running on it. And so long as I keep decent pressure on that, it's gonna keep contact. Don't do this, this is a bad idea, but I'll go plug this in. And now we have one of the strand tests. I think this is, forget which one this is. One of the strand tests from the Arduino. I believe this is the HDR one. So this one has nicer dithering on it. You'll see more subtle changes to it as they fade. And this one just happens to be a different pattern running in different direction. So again, power is not coming from my feather, just the data and then a common ground. So I'll plug that first one in. And this one is running, let me get this out of the way here, there we go. This one is running CircuitPython, also using the NeoPixel 8 library in there with some demo code that was written by Jepler. And I'll show you that in a second. So what I wanted to do is show you how I have this set up because what you get with the NeoPixel 8 library and these Scorpio boards is a great opportunity to do a bunch of wiring because you're probably plugging a lot of stuff into it. So I will, first of all, ask Lars to step aside. And so this is just eight 60 NeoPixel strips, eight strips, 60, so that's 480 I think, NeoPixels that I'm running on here. And that's definitely something you want an external supply for. I'll go ahead and unplug power on this and I'll unplug my feather and I'm gonna try to find a neat way to plop this down here without breaking anything or knocking over my coffee, there we go. So here is a down view of this. And I'm just gonna try to focus on some of the lower sections on there of kind of a narrow depth of the field here. Okay, so here's what we've got. We have Feather Scorpio there and that has the right angle headers and then I'm using one of these IDC ribbon cables. It's actually the same ones I used to power Eurorack modules. So I have a lot of these things around. The red stripe in this case I'm using to indicate the zero, the first pin there, zero. This is not keyed in a sense. You can put it on backwards, don't. So you gotta pay attention to which way you put it on. And then I'm following that to, actually I'm using one of these really cool breakouts that we have. These are I think DIN connector breakouts for IDC and this one is keyed. So you can't put it in wrong, which is kind of cool. And the main reason I did this is that it meant I didn't have to do any soldering of all of these. So all the white wires there are the data lines going into all of the eight neopixel strips and then all the black connectors or wires there are connected to grounds. So the odd numbered pins essentially here are the even ones on my feather. Those are pins zero, four, zero, two, four, and so on. And then you'll see I've got all of the power side, power side of the neopixel strips broken out to some of our really cool snap connectors here. And I'm being extra cautious here or maybe going a little above and beyond by essentially I have two ground lines to each neopixel strip. Don't really need those, but they're there and you need at least one, one ground for common coming from the DC power supply. But I didn't want to cut all of these entirely off so I decided to just keep them neat by going into some of these connectors here. So that's, you can see one strip here has the four wires. Some neopixel strips will only have three wires and that'll make your life a little easier. And then I have this running to one of our old DC breakouts and then I have the five volts, 10 amp connector. So that is just one way that you can connect those up. And I just happened to have taken all of their reels and kind of kept them onto their reel. They come on these little reels and it makes it a little easier for me to hang these. Now I'll put those back up there. And there are neater or rather there are smaller wiring options you could do. If you look at some of the ones that Phil B did, he has some really nice, really nice example there of a much smaller, you probably wouldn't want to jam all this into a costume unless it was a big one. But I'll plug that back in there and we should get our little light show going back again. Let's see the code examples I mentioned. If you go to the learn guide, this one has a section on Arduino. If you follow that, it'll basically point you at our NeoPixel 8 library and how to get that set up and run some examples. And then there's also this circuit Python example here using Adafruit NeoPixel 8. So you are importing the NeoPixel 8 library which is gonna run all eight of those strands. And then this one, this example is actually also using the LED animation library. So it's using both of those together. That means we can do things like Comet, which is what I have running right here. And I'll show you kind of a neat little shift I can do on this. These are right now running with sort of an offset which looks really cool. If you look at my code, since this is circuit Python, you can iterate on it really, really quickly. Let me pull some screens off of there real quick. There we go. So right here in the code, there is a section that offsets the timing of the strands, advance the animations by varying amounts so they become staggered. So I'm just gonna comment that and save it. And now you'll see we'll get a group of them running together. And this runs really smooth. I think there might be a little bit of a frame stutter just with the video that I'm broadcasting, but in real life these are super, super smooth.  We could say, let's flip that reverse equals true. I'll save that. And now we're running from top to bottom. We can change the colors. We can change the number of strands. We can, if you tell it you've got, let's say, 30 instead of 60, whoops, I said 300. If you say you've got 30 pixels, then you can test just a little small section running here. Let me hold that up so you can see it. There you go. Nice little section there. I don't know why that's still running reverse. Oh, I said reverse is true. Okay, change that to false again. This is the beginning of the strip even though I have it mounted upside down. Let's save there. So now we'll see 30 running out of there, which is kind of fun. So any animations you wanna do, if you can do them with NeoPixel 8, that'll make this really straightforward to use. And also by the way, I'm running at I think 60% brightness. Let's see, I haven't tested this at full brightness. Let's go to 1.0 on the brightness. It'll probably look almost white in the camera view. Wow, those are bright now. Let's set that to the full 60. You probably be able to tell the brightness a little better just by looking at it reflected off of something like Lars here. You can see that's quite a lot of light. So you can use these for lighting. If you wanna do some creative lighting for photography or video, that's definitely a possibility for sure. All right, let's see. What kind of questions do we have? Yes, the discount is live. It's like I fixed, thanks again to Jelly. Yep, people talking about power consumption. So I didn't actually do the math on this. I think at most lighting, maybe 10 or 12 of them on each strip, just because of how Comet is arranged, times eight. So I'm not doing any full white. So it's probably not 60 milliamps per. 60 milliamps per is kind of a rule of thumb if you have one pixel at full brightness on all three colored Iodes. So important to do the math if you're trying to figure out battery life, if you're trying to figure out if you have the big enough power supply. I just went big and went with the 10 amp supply and I'm fine with that. But you'll see actually, if you go into Learn Guides, there's a, I don't know if it's out yet, but there's one that Noe was working on, which is a small Christmas tree and it just has maybe 200 pixels total. And he's running it off of just USB five volts. So depending on how you're animating stuff, you can get away with not using an external supply. All right, so yeah, the glow is definitely everything in the shop is going to glow now, right? We can glow the board over there behind me probably. That splash effect of that light. All right, so don't forget head on over there if you want to get the discount 5650 as the product ID, you're going to get that for a half off, maximum of 10 per customer. DCD asks, is there a shopping list to reproduce your demo? There is not, but I think if you look at just that main Learn Guide and the Neopixelate Guide, that'll get you really close. I can throw something up in the chat after the show, but it's a nice little breakout that we have that made my life easy for hooking that up. Oh yeah, there's the Learn Guide is out. I can pop this up in the Discord there. That's the holiday tree with the Scorpio that Noah just put together. And I think that's going to do it. So let me grab this one here and a little hanger. And I will say that right there is the product pick for today. It is the Feather RP2040 Scorpio with eight channels of Neopixel driving goodness. All right, thanks everyone for stopping by.  You don't need a coupon code or anything. It's just going to be this 50% off just through to the end of the show roughly. Pick some up and do some good Neopixel Scorpio action. Oh, I've got a nice, yeah, we've got a little animated scorpion right there. He's super cool. All right, thanks everyone for Adafruit Industries, I'm John Park and this has been JP's product pick of the week. See you next time.


That's a beautiful Monday morning right here. Thank you for joining us. It's time for us to go through the papers We call it off the press open up on Kataria joins the conversation via phone open up on good morning, and thank you for joining us All right open up or let's set up with the punch newspaper at this morning It talks about economic crisis Nigeria's nine trillion narrow or revenue threatened and federal government blames theft of course our production crashes by over 28 million barrels and government miss Miss users revenue target or missus revenue target Cobb oil theft caught Recurrent expenditure to avoid bankruptcy expert tells the federal government 18 terminal operators or federal government 753 million dollars 1.61 billion naira According to the attorney general of the federation now and rep summons the NPA boss sounds like I mean there's a lot of money that's just We're losing or money. There's just somewhere that one of gets in Okay And that's it on the banner caption seven month cashless transaction Raised 41 percent heat 210 trillion naira And a quermado or hanay's a false malami and six federal government intervention I thought we said that you know the federal government We had an agreement that the federal government will stay off Caution your supporters, please warns presidential candidate and orders and 27 killed in 28 political incident in seven months Again, just before we move away legacy bad on construction convention ground traffic and please ban Hawking monkey park spreads to 27 state and cases now 172 Amosu's political relevance validity have expired apc spokesman is saying And this talks about raid bushes on completed buildings IG orders, please mend the headlines on the punch newspaper this morning Let's go straight to the nation. We have some interesting headlines there Not too many of those but the few headlines there are interesting IG raises alarm over plot to attack public facilities DCU abducted in abya and gunmen invade school killed teacher in nasa where we have a picture of the IGP in a court There which says the agerents are here by urge to Corporate with the police as many operatives will be seen in strategic areas Roots and communities in order to suppress the antics and criminal activities of men of the underworld Seems a renewed push by the police in the light of recent security breaches Around the country southeast south-south youth begin mobilization for tenable Fiora fiora over a muslim muslim ticket Unnecessary is what that headline says Anger and apc over non refund of nomination fees um So maybe a case of uh Eating your cake and having it. I don't know what I guess Unless this morning would we'll say about that customs intercepts 234 tons of fertilizer At nigeria kemron border. Thank you. I don't know if this the border we know that you know Anyway, uh kidding up king pain. What do many others get seven years jail term One dough a dough three others record 13 new cases of Lots of fever Oh, and easy federal government should wait into quermado's case Is what the social cultural Pan-ebo social cultural group is said to be saying 18 terminal operators or federal government 753 million dollars 1.61 billion naira and uh final two from the nation Why vote buying is increasing and foreign airlines? Fair currency devaluation headlines on the front page of the nation But we're from the nation. Let's take a look at the daily trust newspaper this morning 140 days after federal government loses three billion naira unhorted kaduna buja train sevens I closed my shop laid off staff Uh, you have uh that is an entrepreneur who's quoted to say Clare terrorists Cells to ease resumption security expert How disruption will affect loan repayment? It's a lot now in total loss in 140 days 3.02 billion naira is lost That's that that's what you find this morning on the daily trust as the number of daily trips is eight Now number of passengers per trip is 900 to 1000 And economic ticket is two thousand eight hundred and three thousand era And vip ticket is sold at six thousand naira But I remember some time, you know, there's an impression also where it feels like this, you know There's no revenue that's really generated here. It's actually Not so lucrative if you look at it and that's why salaries are being owed and all of the delays But I mean it's surprising to to see that this amount has been lost in 140 days It feels like there's a lot of money right there APC Muslim Muslim ticket shunt sentiment and vote quality leaders Ido Oofiessen is quoted and 50 killed many displaced as flawed wrecks havoc in Jaguar Many terrorists killed in Niger and Kaduna air strike And just before we move away from that you find total loss in the last four months Since trade services were suspended is 600 million naira monthly Coffey, that's a lot. That's a lot of money at the time where we constantly say that We don't have resources. It's a lot to be losing Absolutely, absolutely But I think that the daily trust Group must be commended for putting something like this together Seems like the headlines from some papers sometimes on some days You see they go a bit different from the normal from the grain, which is good to see Let's move on to the guardian Conscience nurtured by truth. They say They lead with this headline only six out of 54 auto assembly plants running Below capacity only six out of 54 auto assembly plants running Below capacity Is what they're saying. So it's not that they are running below They are running only six are running, but they are also below capacity is the comma there The rider to that headline is stakeholders list forex inconsistent policies as challenges We have since converted our stuff in assembly plans to after sales says cfao dmd So the even the six that are running are running below capacity is what the The guardian is saying as parents drug apc of a refund of nomination fees as party Expells umahi's opponent or opponent says troops rescue another chip or gal three others In bono that's some good news there return ex-creates 77 wraps of cocaine at enugo airport and No no mark barbock virus disease outbreak in nigeria nc dc confirms with syrian of a barbock virus disease It's another one for the books Stop prolonged audits in our great n d dc board unionists tell buhari and flood kills 50 It is places hundred in hundreds in jigar saddow on there So headlines come on the front page of the guardian and at this point we will bring in our guest this morning Open up on cotaria Mr. Cotaria, thank you for a time once again. I'd like to start with this one on the front page of the guardian Where aspirants of the uprogressives congress are Dragging the party over the refund of their nomination fees is a story that also the nation Went with as well Is this something that is normal in in the politics of nigeria that after the primaries hold and the losers would ask for a refund of their nomination fees We need to come with us from any law in this country where the great for reform and If you move out Or if you are not able to participate in the primaries Yes, I agree with the reform There is no possible Any battle that would be a reform is not to do with the party's one fee I know that with that 20 day tax order That they do reform You are both also that answer me the fact that in the primaries of 40th form For this call for reimbursement a decision by the sense of injustice Revolve the political party's cabinet where they hold This country is your poison on the political party and so A lot of people arrive though. They are angry That if you know that you're going to impose the cabinet of the country There why allow us to participate from And they They come to a protest And they are very reputant race, you know, why is that we're sorry? And it's not something that you just want to dismiss or let it be what it was Even if the money you use for this reform Of slowly, if it's very difficult to just decide the way like that, I mean It's difficult. If you imagine what you can do, what's wrong? If you decide to go and save Then you'll be denied That is why a lot of guys are calling for a reform Because of the interest they have That's where it all is I can remember All right, let's take a look at, you know, the economic situation of Niger and that's You know the punch tags that he talks about economic crisis Now Niger's oil production slumped by 28 million barrels between january and july 2022 and that's a big threat to the federal government 9.3 trillion our oil and gas revenue target by the end of 2022 now the government is blaming that on all tax Not also forgetting the fact that we haven't really been able to meet our quota We're talking about, you know, the quota that's been made Or are located to Nigeria by OPEC over time. How do you respond to this? Or There's my question to that That's why a lot of work that come on in for that of the economy When you have a government that is grounded in the morale of all you see is one issue. You can imagine the OPEC And One of them all the day They are talking about the increasing taxes and to In other words, you want to describe the masses of necessities and this is not used to the to the rich The truth about this is that The government is acting On what to do with their economy And this is as a result of the morale in leadership back to you Completely headless, rather less There is a lot of stress in the system In whole lot of stress. You can imagine on my country, they are talking of having this period You can imagine, but I show out Go to them without any compulsion in coming out to talk of The Muslim or Mexican or Christian Somebody has to go to the non-vision in jail And you are the plethora of issues I'll tell you one, whenever there is It's a light problem in the oil sector The government becomes busy Because it has no idea No second Home of the rich or they cannot be outside the box On how to address the economic issues in this country If you don't show your oil, as you think in the oil sector You have to have no grip on them when the refineries are not working That would have needed to get there exactly in the oil sector You have to be good and important in the refineries This is either ridiculous So that is the light problem in the oil sector When there is a great impact on the economy And on the earnings of the federal government That is the truth about it That is what every government does Apart from the issue of the criminals Making pipelines and so on Which is what has been activated By the government You have so many governments that are involved in these silly things And are being protected by the same government You have to cover So you have to run around with them What is happening to the run around with them? Every time money is on both sides You have to run around with business And not in the business Who says they don't run business? The government Who's the real government? And they don't make sure you don't make sense of the fact that I'm a refinerie That I'm not working That I'm not involved It's not a job, not that I'm being honest, I'm good at it I would that have the negative impact on the economy And on the grossing of the oil So, even in the example of the oil refineries You say to yourself, I know Yes, you have how many people working in that industry And you say to yourself I know that I'm one of them I'm sure What they got that is protected How can they describe that? So it all boils down to leadership They're just talking about I don't know if we have people break the pipeline Yes, we all condemn that What is that respect? What you think about it is that That might have the Thank you sense Negative effect on the economy It cannot be compared to the flow of the system In terms of the dollar In terms of what they're going to put in What to do with those jobs In terms of size And what are you?   Well, I mean you just probably answer The next question So it means that you agree with The expert who have said that The government needs to cut oil theft And also cut recurrent expenditure To avoid bankruptcy You probably agree With this expert And that's it, but let's see how All of this pans out Well, so I said You probably answered the question The next question that would have Come from me Because experts are saying that The government needs to cut recurrent expenditure And also cut oil thefts In order to avoid the economy So the next question Why would it suddenly Be said One way to say that In the context of The economy needs The government needs to cut Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts Oil thefts I mean, let's let's let's move on from that now. Sorry to interject, but um, I would really want to, because of time, we want to move on to a couple of other stories from other papers and you've raised all the important questions, you know, about about the situation as far as the president is concerned. But but another one is on the front page of the Guardian.  Unionists are asking the president to to to be quick in in his, uh, to be quick in in his forensic audit so that he can inaugurate the board of the NDDC. It's on the front page at top of that front page often Guardian this morning. You know, they're saying that Unionists are asking the president, but how to quickly be done with the forensic audit so that he can inaugurate the board of the NDDC. What does he say? The fact that at this time, we still don't have a substantive vote for such a very important commission. Then the second one, the NDDC, which is along by the initial mega delta, I said, look, this thing I just used, they are talking nonsense. They are used to deceive the NDDC. Pretending that it doesn't be Union one, enough to all the way. Then the board will take a contact on that, and you won't get a vote from the president. That is number one. But if you decide who wins, the judge will end the game. Which has not to be. Number two, what is the importance of ending the game, and how do you end the game? Make sure you're not going to die first. What is the risk of resuscitation? You don't need me to.  If you don't love ending the game, then you're not going to die first. You don't need new budgets. You don't need a new budget. Moving the future of America, just because of all kinds of dervishes, you won't come to church again soon. It is not in America that I would like to end the game. So, in the second of the end of the season, the idea you do is that if I end the game, I'm not going to win the game. I'm going to use this and power the end of the season to carry out this job of addressing the crime of the United Nations. What is the importance of the United Nations? What is the importance of the United Nations? There is no money to go. You have the United Nations advantage. You have very much of the United Nations advantage, and so on. You have that money, and it's all crime. End of the season, I'm going to end the game. End of the season. Hopefully. I'm going to want people, most of them, to come in. So, you have a major job, come out there, at the end of the season. Or it's only a thought. I'm sure it's going to be a thought, and also it is worth to remind ourselves that in the end of the season, the whole thing is just like a thought. There was the thought that was an executive thought. So, we want a well-being of the executive thought. So, it controls the situation of our country. So, it's not the point of the people. The reason it works is because it's a legal matter. It's a legal issue. But those in power are not in question. That's the truth of the problem. The end of the season, I'm going to call them. Something you also have like a thought that are a thing that are also complicitous, that also have to be called the like a thought. I don't want to do it the way I do at the end of the season. What is the impact? There is no impact, Russia, by the method of thought. Not. People put in the spice powder and the kakao. People put in the product control delivery and executes. When you put it in, it has very, very few products on the top. They present the product of the thought out. What can happen? I beg you please, for example, in the time where there's a lot of economic crisis or we're just faced with it. 140 days after, federal government loses 3 billion to halt at Keduna Abujatri in service. And that's on the daily trust newspaper. What do you make of this situation? I mean, we seem to be, you know, on the other hand, we're losing out but you also need to consider the issue of security. Yes, so the services of the Abujat Keduna train has been halted for about 100, what was halted, about 140 days and we have lost 300 billion on that. And you have a report also saying that 600 million, 3 billion, I beg your pardon, 600 million also total loss in the last four months since the train services were suspended. Yes, it's been halted. So first of all, it's really sad that we're losing money. But on the other hand, you also need to think about security. First of all, it could be a natural thing, although the federal government could get out of the game for not providing enough security, but let us make that, I mean, probably does not have to get the camera out of the way. But then, people have seen this activity. So it will be a palace for you to resume on that railway. It will be extremely insensitive. You also, this is also by the point that the federal government has not shown any form of interaction. The federal government has not even inserted in the release of this activity. Also, people are angry. And as well, I think today it is you, the train, whatever, the casino, who got, I tell you that Nigeria, this time, not the adopters, Nigeria will go and burn down what is. Open up on Qatari. I don't think it'll be fair. Open up on Qatari. I don't think it'll be fair to say the federal government is already interested in anyway in security release of these AK-9 train kidnapped victims. Because, I'm sure, I'm sure, sorry sir, sorry sir, sorry sir, please, let me just put it out. No, no, I want to put something out there to be, to so far as the basis for what I'm saying.  They had acceded to some demands of the leader of those terrorists, got some of their members who were in prison, got their wives and their children, even went to Adamawa where they were in jail, where the kids and the wives were in detention, to fly them by plane and give them to the terrorists.  So, at least they've done something, yeah. I'm not impressed yet, but yes, I'm not impressed yet in what you'll do. I'm impressed yet in return. I'm not rhetoric. So stop the rhetoric. And let us see something concrete. Every day. I can get up in the morning to say, I'm sure as you're working on you, learn to do your PhD in America, learn to do your PhD in Harvard, learn to do your PhD. I could be deceiving you. But until I get your official paper and give you proof of payment, you'll feel payment, then you know that I'm working. So they're not interested. Not someone, a man that has been kidnapped, that has been released by the Saddam Hussein. No. I can say you're not working. Look at the issue of the court of money. Now, when Zena was arrested and co-existed in Saudi Arabia, she was to face the deck now who are in on that their commision not to be tabled. They don't imagine the decision of the woman to be tabled as the policy of the court. You should hear this government that has a spedophonic personality on issues. So the son of the man is not working. They're then deceived in Nigeria. How many of them are here? How many of them are here? So please don't be deluded by those rhetoric from the son of the government, who are not involved in the show of the father or the mother of the son-in-law. All right. I mean, you say that shouldn't be deluded. I'm just putting the facts out there for you to comment on. I mean, there's nothing delusional about it.  Ohanezi, their paper reports are asking the federal government to wait into the queer mother case on a diplomatic level, I'm sure. So just speak on that for a bit. Please. Anything that didn't happen to the boy in London? The boy, for example, would have been the first life. People said to forget the past. So they said, you have to go back. But the boy told you what he was advised. Oh, you have the opportunity now. So why are you coming back? I'm going to tell you right there. God has blessed you. Read that past year. It's a real advice. And he did what he did. No problem. The facts are there. We have facts to do. It's not there. It's not there. Now, we are not saying, because the miracles won't get you scoffed. Here is one of his sentiments. They are living a black. Everybody is 100. And all you have to say is okay fine! This was gone for a technical reason. Not him well. Mr. President used Diplomatic channels to help this man out. He's going through a lot. Psychologically, emotionally, physically and otherwise. He's thinking of his daughter. In health of his daughter. Then again, he's going between freedom, liberty and jail. This man is going through a lot. If not, he's struggling maybe he has psychological problems right now. Because if you come and suppose to be about to let's talk to the government. Who I'm saying let's not intervene. This is the reason we weren't the independent president. It's a Nigerian personal problem. Let's talk to the government. Let's not intervene. If there are things, excuse me, if you want there and for me there, a crime such as murder, stealing, there always is no.  A man believed he went through the world. I think I did a procedure of breach. Not in Nigeria for a little bit. In London. Go back to me. So, what are you supposed to go back to? That's what I said. But one day now, committed fraud. Talking of drugs and so on. Insider media. Mr. President. All that, I'm going to go back to the subject. Now, if you go to the government, you see why don't you know, one of the things that it makes sure that is change discrimination in this country. You want the president whose speech is dealing with words of, in the world of, I think words of non-location and deposition. In one breath you say one thing in another breath you say another. Because it's the way the man is not. Why, you can't have a son when I could be. They have been brought in, dropped in. I dropped. So, it's the fact that I feel that when you are saying it's not that important. Life is equal to money. You say it's not that important. Not to get involved. What do you mean? They can say it's not that right. You look at yourself. You look at the process. Why not do something? Okay. Well, I was probably going to show your thoughts on this one, but we're being prompted to, you know, to call it a wrap right here. Thank you so much. Okunaba and Kataria for being part of the breakfast. We appreciate your thoughts and all of the insights you've brought this morning to the big stories on the front pages. Yes. Okunaba, thank you so much for being part of the breakfast. Thank you. We appreciate your time. We wish we had time to ask you about the gale of defections in your state, river state and whether you're also planning to join the train. But maybe we'll talk about that some some other day. I'm sure it's your good friend Chris Feinborn as well. Who's next? I'll be surprised to see you. I won't be surprised to see you in the front. Well, that's the size of it. We need to go now. Thank you so much. Okunaba and Kataria. Well, that's the size of it on the front pages of National Daily. So take a break when we return. The conversation continues right here. Stay with us.

This is my resume It's guy in China swear She's gonna stamp her paper To Starbucks That's me every day in India yep no joke Yeah, mr. Artist art she has a quality or about her that reminds me a little bit of topsy-panoo I Gonna break bad. I heard you're hiding some process Not a very good See the liners he has like I am I think he's just having a little moment. I think he's having a moment He's breaking bad your goddamn, right I Look like my old algebra books it's KK it's grandpa and he's in his right mind nice Still no KK Yeah, so they like they've I'm sure obviously they're just because he's the big-time player. Yeah, and so that's They're more focused on the Shahid's character right now, and they'll get there and it's like you don't meet Exactly you don't get to the chicken restaurant.  Best written show on the history of TV. It's the most consistently great show. I think of all time Yeah, do it like you didn't have a bad season Only has one weird episode. Yeah But it's You kind of you wait a little while for that and then else I don't know if he broke up with the girl It seemed like that look he was like upset with her there at the end. Yeah, I think it was last episode, right? Yeah, I think he's done, but I didn't see them break up or anything He I don't know at least favorite character And I don't know if it's the actress or if it's just the way she's written right that just irks me Yeah, I just don't like her at all She wasn't in this but yeah, I don't know obviously what they're gonna do now in terms of Yeah, what are they gonna do? I think I think grandpa might die Yeah, I think it might not happen access or they go to KK or the KK comes to them or Maybe they go and they help Maybe he becomes DJ Yeah, it just doesn't seem like that's happening. No, there's going no something Something bigger needs to happen in order for something like he needs to be in trouble with KK or something and For something like that to happen. I feel like right. Yeah. Well, they've left me wanting to know so That's really good Because the question does the big question is what do they do now? I Yeah, I'd imagine because he's not in good health right now anyway, he doesn't seem But they just got he's on the decline and what they could do but they just got a shit ton of money as well They did they could buy stuff depending on how much that they've kept they could and maybe their buddy there the uncle Let's them come in at night behind grandpa's back still Who I don't know Breaking Bad was such a good series Just everything about that show it's just And game of thrones might be overall my favorite show ever But it's last season majorly disappointed me And so I can't call it the most consistently great show like it can't break. No, I Wasn't bothered as much as you with the last season but and the rest of humanity it When you get through Breaking Bad It's the best it's the best written show from episode one to the final episode And anytime you have the greats right of shows I mean the sopranos is pretty dang good to anytime you have a show that's similar in like even though It's not about drugs It's about two people that come up and kind of get into the world of crime in some way You're gonna be compared just like if you're a gangster film you're gonna be compared to the godfather It's just it's gonna happen Yeah, any if you're in a if you're in a series now that has to do with some type of people coming up in the Yeah, criminal where you came from the good world and you're gonna go to the bad world and you're really good at one thing Yeah, so you start doing that thing in the criminal world. Yeah, you're gonna be compared to Breaking Bad always it's even though Obviously the show is very original. It's not really like it. Yeah, just they Once again, I think idea. I think writers have a hard time nowadays because every story has been told You just you have to come up with creative ways and Accept everything everywhere all at once That story had never been told That's one of the things that makes it so great But what's the overall theme of that story though? Well all stories go back to either Greek mythology Hmm, or the ancient texts Ain't it ain't ain't ancient texts of You know like we've learned from all of the great stories that come out of the brap, you know the brahamshtra Hinduism yeah, all of all of those stories of the great epic Hero stories. Yeah. Yeah, it's good overcoming evil. I think all the the cast is doing a really good job Yeah, I'm not a surprise. No, not at all. I VJ is obviously a very believable Can I like I I like I forgot her character name the counterfeit girl who wanted to work with him I really like her Shades doing a great job. Yeah, I'm missing. So is his buddy. I'm missing KK. Yeah, just That's my actor, man. I love the guy. He's he'll be back. He's one of the It's just when you and it's it's strange in like a series like this when you have great actors like Shahid and and VJ But maybe it's just the fact that his role is the meaty role of the villain per se the the Antagonist of the story. That's the characters.  I find them So much more interesting than I find regular people. They have a much clearer objective than everybody else Yeah, and also they're just not like Cookie-cutter That's why I hate Captain America. Oh and Superman.  They're my two favorites of all time My man is my favorite of all time. They're my least favorite and my favorite Avenger is cap because they're so basic What's basic? There's they they have one through line. There's no they have a very clear objective Normal sure it is and I get it. They're superheroes, but I want my Batman obviously one of the most complex Yeah, but he's technically not super huge is really rich. Yeah, that's why he does not really a superhero Now he's just a billionaire with gadgets Like not like Shaktima is a real superhero. We all know yeah Shaktima or Flash or stuff like that. Yeah, but That's not what this is about the Billy if you're gonna give me a billionaire superhero Give me Iron Man every day of the week over Batman Tony Starks far better than Bruce Wayne. I'll take them both. Yeah, I take Tony Stark over Bruce Wayne Well, I'm not every day of the week. Oh, yeah in terms of personality, but in terms of well even motive and objective and gadgets and the motives Not too dissimilar from each other. No, they're very they're very very Kind of similar guys. Yeah, but yeah, but I mean Iron Man would definitely beat Batman I mean, I don't know to the comics. I'm not that kind of person because I'm sure they fought in in the past maybe probably but Tony Stark to shoot in a laser Probably Bye Batman Just kill him dead right there. Anyways back to the back to the series here I'm really enjoying the setup of it all Three episodes in this is very common. I feel like especially with Raj and DK family man It's it was very subdued a lot of times and then it just yeah steadily builds steadily builds it so it builds you Which is smart. It doesn't just punch you with action It it makes you care for these guys makes you care for the people and then gives you the goods in the end Yep, I don't know if that's how this will end. I have no clue Because that one was with family. It's a lot more cop centric Yeah, so you have a lot more opportunities to have like shootouts or Interesting things happen. Yeah, and I I like Shahid's character being a character who is Got dual motives here, maybe if not to he's got at least three motives going on He does have the motive to take care of and save his grandpa's business mm-hmm, but he also has the motive underneath at all of Giving it to the man. Yeah, and I'm tired of being the one that stepped on and I'm gonna I'm gonna you know, and it's It's very much Heisenberg. Yep. Yep He is the one who knocks. Yeah Anyways, let us know what you thought about this episode and once again if you'd like to see the full uncut version so you can head over to Patreon to see the full uncut version of each episode and By the time you sing this on YouTube, I'm sure all the episodes are already gonna be on on patreon so go check that out and
