First of all, I'd like to introduce Anne-Marie Cunningham. Anne-Marie is a clinical lecturer in primary care and public health at Cardiff University. Anne-Marie is going to talk on being public, how social media reshaped professional identity. Anne-Marie. Hello, thank you very much for inviting me to come and speak to this conference. I have to say it really was, I was delighted to be invited and a little bit surprised. And I hope that what I'm going to talk about today is of interest to you. So professional identity, quite often when we start talking about professional identity and digital identity, we focus on all the things that go wrong. We have this notion, we talk a lot about medical students and other people, teachers putting things, photographs leaking out on Facebook that really shouldn't. And we imagine in some kind of way that this digital identity is just some bits of information that are kind of tracked and pulled together about people. But today I'm going to talk a little bit more about very positive, a positive way of actually thinking about being online in a social space of how we should be thinking about this. So if you were to sort of say, well, you know, who am I? I've already given you a few little clues about some of my identity in that previous slide. So there was my name and my institution where I, the department that I'm in, and so I had my Twitter ID. So increasingly the space of social media is somewhere where I am recognised as being a professional. And where I'm from, if you can hear my accent, actually where you're from also tells people about your identity. This is kind of the way it fits in with Dave White's idea of space and place and residence and visitors in a way I have moved to being a resident in some of these spaces. But actually, so where am I from? Well, it's about, if you don't know who can recognise this lovely part of the world. This is about a mile and a half, if that's up the road from where my mum lives and where I grew up in the Morns in Northern Ireland. And yes, there are sheep around there. For me, it's actually must have entered into my psyche and my identity more than I thought because I actually have this picture as my Twitter backdrop. And these are morn black-faced sheep who are very good at thriving in a colder climate. So maybe we can learn something from the sheep too. But I will also add it to my Twitter bio that I am determined not to be one of these sheep. I added that on by, I don't know, a year or so ago. And I don't know, I just had this feeling that actually quite often whenever you're online all are, there is a kind of herd at the end of the day. We all are sometimes feeling like we're looking in the same way. And I don't feel like that. I pride myself a little bit in maybe being more critical and thinking of different viewpoints and being reflexive. And I'm going to talk about how social media actually forces, if you're going to be a professional, you're nearly forced to be in that, to take on multiple viewpoints. So I know that you're maybe not so familiar with medical education, although there are great examples here. I've seen lots of very good examples about use of technology. But just so you can get an idea of where I'm coming from, there's been about 100 years of criticism from 1868 whenever the GMC took on responsibility for medical education. All the science has pretty integrated into the curriculum. It's too full. We've got too many facts. We're not really managing to do this job that well. And I've said that, so I've had that stopping in a way in about the middle of the 20th century, but it has actually continued. But there's also been a long time that we've had a lot of innovation. We do like the three-letter acronym, like other people. So there's PBL, Problem-Based Learning, which started in McMaster in Canada in the 70s and is being rolled out across into other sectors. CBL, Case-Based Learning. So lots of different approaches. In some ways, I would argue that we are a bit post-lecture in medicine. We have thought about different ways of approaching education. And one of the issues is that medical education. I mean, you're here using terminology of Robert Keegan, who has, from his constructive developmental approach to transformative learning. So there's this idea about information as against transformation. So we're filling up the students with all this content. And maybe that was the feeling for quite a long time that was going on. The other process, which is happening about transformation, becoming a doctor, developing that identity, becoming a sociocultural process, those are there as well. And traditionally, they've been through apprenticeship, encouraging students to be involved in reflective processes, mentoring. So that's how we go about transformation. And then a little bit on about me. So we've already have a litter there. I have this quite, like many people here, I'm sure, quite a complex professional identity. So I am a doctor. I'm a GP. I'm a practitioner. I work in the South Wales Valleys. I also am an educator. So I teach in some parts of the course and I've got a special interest in e-learning or the use of technology in the course. I am a researcher. I've done clinical research. I've done education research. And I'm also a student. I'm a doctor in education in the School of Social Sciences and Cardiff University. So all these bits and pieces are coming around. These are all communities that I'm part of and identities that I have. And I would say are actually represented in public in social media as well to more and greater extents. And if we think about an offline life, the one that which I've been longer socialised into is definitely being a doctor and a family doctor. That's probably always, unless something very radical changes, going to be an essential core part of who I see myself as. And being an educator, the community, and finding a community within that, well, within my own institution there are people. But how do I link up and connect to other people? And there is very clearly to me the idea that medical education, just as medicine itself is, is a practice. It's not a science. And even when you go to conferences, I went a few years ago to two medical education conferences, actually where this all started out from. And I realised that the kind of things I needed to know and wanted to be to make me a better educator was to be able to share a practice with other people, to get into this nitty gritty and be able to connect with others. But actually these organisations, which I was a member of, at that time were not really giving me a great deal of opportunity to do that. So after you came away from the conference, there was this kind of feeling a sense of isolation. How could you actually get contacting with other people and be developing this identity even more? And so I decided that I would just kind of take the bill by the horns and go out and try and find people myself. And I would start a blog. So I started a blog in October 2008, wishful thinking of medical education. I'd love you to go along and have a look and see there. And I also started popping up on Twitter. And I said that I wanted to find people to learn together with. That was my goal. And I quickly formed a network of other people. These were some of the first people I was in contact with. Sarah Stewart, midwife in New Zealand, Dodger Bonacastle, who is an educator in Saskatchewin in Canada. Natalie Lafferty, he's a very good colleague. He's got special interest in e-learning and is based in D&D in Scotland. Natalie and I had started getting very close in the way that we were. The difference is opinion, I'm sure, about the things that we do. We spent a long time communicating online and through Skype and different things. We actually met up for the first time at a workshop we organised together at a conference this year. So the other two, I still have to wait a bit longer to me. So this new network was there. And I suppose at the start, I read Dave White's paper and I thought, so much of what I was going to say in a way was related to this. At the start, I felt that we were spending a long time, talking about tools, social bookmarking, how different technologies actually would work within my practice and how they might make me a better educator. And I thought that they would probably meet some needs. I went off the next year to this conference, Medical Education Conference, as me, Association for Study of Medical Education. I said and I talked about how supporting scholarship, medical education could be done by social media and networks. But actually quite surprisingly, this did not lead to a paradigm shift in scholarly communication and medical education. But it's changing. Things are moving on. At AME last week in Vienna, nearly 3,000 delegates, there were people a lot of use of Twitter, people using blogs afterwards. We're getting on to having Google Plus starting to talk about, if we wanted to explore these areas, how would we do it? And also, we've started going out and sharing these spaces for medical education ourselves. We've started a Twitter chat with the hashtag hashmedad. And there are lots of very interesting things that are coming out, interacting with students across the world, particularly in the UK. We've got one at nine o'clock on a Thursday in the UK and then a nine o'clock eastern time in the US a few hours later. And so we're starting to explore these things. And the people, what I'm going to say is that I've also been thinking all along about how what I would learn and what's going on there would actually influence my practice as a doctor. And I'm not, I have to say, a techno evangelist. I don't think that I am. In fact, if you Google Webtooskeptic, the first thing that comes up is talking about me. I'm being referred to as a Webtooskeptic. I was talking to this chatting online with Dr Vezi. He's not a big medical blogger. As yet, I'm not sure how to learn about these new technologies and teach students about it because I'm not really using them in my practice yet. That's not because there really isn't a need. I would say that there is in a way this kind of myth of information overload in a sense. We talk about it as if doctors and people are swamped by all this different information. They cannot make their way through it. There are so many different journals and papers and you can never keep up to date. In fact, that is manageable. This generic scientific information is codified. It's searchable. You can filter it. What's actually missing, the information under load, I could say, is this local practical information. It's about practice. It's tacit. If it is codified, it's often poorly presented and not very easy to access. People putting out guidelines and PDF online. I can't really manage it very well. It's not easy to find. It often doesn't exist in forms that you can actually find it. That is true for medical education, for education practice and for medical practice. There is obviously a lot of way to go in this but we still haven't got there. That's partly because there are all these tensions about these things that we know about. You can talk more about how it is. What is my identity being online? Should we be anonymous or not? What are the risks? Who is in control? Who's got the power over these sort of spaces? Who do you trust? What are the issues over access? These are all points that must be part of why this is not happening more yet. It isn't just about not knowing the technology. If people could always work around and make it happen, it's because of these cultural issues. You end up with this balancing act. You talked about yesterday about this being open versus closed. If you're open there is more risk but you're sharing and learning against. You can be safe in your own network and be quite a private sort of space. I'm going then to kind of move on. This is just a modelling in a way to kind of help us to think about what we actually mean about identity. Again, I've used this idea of Robert Keegan's about a constructive developmental approach to transform learning. This is about the kind of ways that we know. What are our personal epistemologies and way of being? He talks about the socialised mind, the self-authoring mind and the self-transforming mind. I'm going to suggest that if we're talking about professional identity, I'm socialised into an identity about being a doctor. Whenever I'm being a doctor to a certain extent I'm meeting the guidelines, the institutions, the GMC, what other bodies, what my colleagues actually think so people, you can be socialised and be meeting the expectations of other external bodies or people to you. Then there's also self-authoring. You've taken in the values yourself. You've decided your own values and that's what actually influences your identity and how you practice and then this notion actually of being able to step outside that, be able to view it from the outside and see the different viewpoints, be reflexive and consider other people's point of view. In a way, I'll say this is in a way an EMI would say that we have in general the medicine. We expect doctors to be able to take on board the view of their patients and be reflexive and not come in just with these are the rules and this is what we do or these are my rules but actually I'm working with you. How is this then related to social media? Well it's also needed in the sense that there aren't rules out there. This is about the Facebook is a wide west from Harvard HealthX but was a study looking at patient communities online. There are no rules out there yet. This is a kind of new frontier. We can't rely on being socialised into these spaces to know how to be and how to behave because there aren't enough people to do that and we haven't figured it out yet and instead you're either depending on the own internalised that you have taken from other places and you're probably also being exposed to other ways of considering what your identity is and I'm going to tell you about this little story just as a way of illustrating this so although if you go and you look at my Twitter profile you'll see that I've made nearly up on 40,000 tweets over the last three years or so I don't think that it's not my mind that most of the time I'm projecting myself as a doctor even though I have GP as the first word or bio and I very rarely get approached I would say just as being a doctor or being asked sort of for advice but on this occasion a few months ago somebody said to me could they ask me a quick question about a definition of something medical and I didn't know this person it wasn't somebody I was following and I sort of thought well how do I respond to this it's about definition it's about information for medical students and they're involved in these stats or something I'd respond to it so of course I'll kind of respond to this so I said well you go ahead I'm pretty good by definitions I can cope with that and the response then was can you tell me what distant metastases mean now if you know anything this is about advanced cancer so we're moved away from just a simple kind of thing giving me the information towards this is a situation where obviously somebody has for some reason asking quite a emotional person sort of question so you can I asked the person's permission and I have blogged about this about this interaction and so you can see more about this story I don't have time to go into it all now but this made me kind of step back and think well why am I what does this tell me about my identity of being a professional in this space so going back to this idea I socialised, I blogged about it and the rest responded and they said you need to check with your licensing body was that entering into a doctor-patient relationship so there the idea about how to be there was from a socialised point of view what were the rules people sort of saying why are the GMC not told us yet about how to be in social media lots of people issuing guidelines about how medical students and doctors and people should present themselves and be within social media and these other public spaces that we have not we had a need for this before I was approaching it more from my self-authoring point of view my values to me being a doctor with a patient was about relationship and about relationship and service and I didn't feel I had that with that person for me this wasn't really about a doctor-patient relationship this was about me giving some information to somebody I met online but by blogging about it and advising that actually if you can step by why was that happening why was somebody coming and asking me who didn't know about what disability meant what conversations were not happening what what I tell myself about my profession and that we actually say we give people and we communicate and whatever social media forces you to realise that all the stories that we tell ourselves are not actually all true there is a different world out there and you see this whenever you start looking at our discussions about medical education we can be very cosy in our own spaces talking within these rooms and whatever with all the people who kind of more or less sometimes think the same way as us and are coming from the same perspectives but once you go out and you move into this you have to be able and prepared to be self-transforming to be engaged and take on other people's viewpoints and so I'm just going just to this nearly finished up with this idea this came from a Norwegian medical student and this was at this conference last week and she said to be a doctor to be a professional is to be who the patient needs you to be and it wasn't about what your organisation tells you it's not even about what you think but you must tie that in with who the patient needs you to be and as we move forwards we're going to have to take on board that our values may not be in step with some of the people that we're working with we have made the decisions about privacy and what people give away how are we going to do whenever people say I want to have a conversation with you in public what about my where do I actually come in and well do I want to be a practitioner practitioner in public I'm pretty clear at the moment that I don't feel comfortable with that but how will I take on board and actually deal with those situations and the other thing is as an educator I actually asked one of my own students asked privately on Twitter you know what do you think my presence my presence on Twitter tells you about me as an educator a learner as a doctor and this is what she said I hope oh sorry click on the wrong place she said this so my identity what she learned from about me and those things was not the links that I shared it wasn't a view point it wasn't information it wasn't even it was about what she saw was by interactions about how I conducted myself with other kind of viewpoints how I took on that's what I was modelling to her was about this giving her an idea about how to relate to other people online perhaps she didn't say she would actually follow it but I imagine that that in a way as an educator that's what I really was managing hopefully to do to be modelling other ways of being so just finish up with this idea again that we talk too often I think about digital identity and professionalism and professional digital identity as this bits of information that are actually coming together but it's not that people view me and make a mind of them and the important people the people who I actually am working with as an educator or possibly also if they come online my patients and people will it won't be about these little random bits of information but it will be about how I interact and how I am through my relationships my relational kind of identity so that's all I want to say so thank you thank you very much Henry that was great question time now can you raise your hands if you have some questions but then please wait until the microphone comes round before speaking so we can capture it for the online presentation thanks very much I really enjoyed your presentation and I think it's an important topic and I just I wonder if it reminds me of Irving Goffman's work in terms of performing yourself and I wonder if what I'd like to hear your comments on the sort of skillful use of different identities in these contexts I suspect that professionalism sometimes has to do with how how well you move between identities rather than the individual identities themselves as much and perhaps that this is even more relevant now that we've got these social media I think that that I suppose my view is that it nearly is moving on to being I I don't have a very, not a lot of I keep things like my Facebook sort of profile in everything quite close down my holiday pictures but actually it could be public really matter but I think what we're moving in a sense into and I haven't really talked a little that much about you what is it sometimes when we talk about being professional it's about us as being like a blank canvas for other people to project their kind of ideas onto that we don't want to give away sort of too much because we have this notion that it actually will distract from their experience people are considering you then who you are and how are you going to respond to me because of this rather than some of your values or whatever rather than what I need you to be so I can't project this on so well and I don't think that I kind of say that sometimes I'm spending, I'm too busy I've got so many things going on I don't actually really have that much time to be unprofessional actually I have, there is not that much but at the same time I don't share you know, don't tweet things all the time that are like really but I will say if I'm like sort of seeing some music and it's very good I don't mind, I don't worry that that's going to influence people too much about me, I don't think that my mind has moved on to thinking that that's not people will view me more important people in a kind of totality rather than these just isolated bits but maybe I'm over optimistic about that Thank you, there's a question just here but as the microphone moves round can we take one online one question Annemarie What are the implications of being a public general practitioner Oh this has actually came from that gentleman over there Oh well True my dear Do you want to add anything to it? Yes Thanks Annemarie and that was a refreshing presentation actually, it made us all think I believe about issues of identity and so on but the reason I ask that question is because I know a lot of other practitioners in other fields like in law for instance who are doing a very similar thing to this firstly the question is do you think there's going to be an increase in this kind of public performance of your profession and secondly if that's the case what do we do about things like authenticity you know somebody might masquerade as a doctor or a lawyer and not actually be one and they might be giving dangerous advice Yes Well I suppose I suppose that I was actually what I was trying to say is I am not I am not prepared to move into this space and practice as a professional as a GP That is not at all my kind of what I'm saying here What I'm saying is that you cannot having an absolute that you know anybody comes and asks me anything medical I will say sorry excuse me I cannot respond to that with me also being like an educator and being somebody who wants to share knowledge but I don't believe it just giving a simple piece of information like that very transactional thing to me that's not being a doctor that's not being a GP because if I was a GP in that situation or even if I met you somebody here and somebody said to me I said oh gosh what you know that sounds awful why is that or what's happening or whatever and we would have a very different conversation to me just saying oh yes I tried through the bladder and then they said well that's one friend and they don't know about this all I was trying to say about that sounds very distressing I didn't get into a big dialogue about I was not being a doctor in that situation and I don't think that we should I don't feel happy or comfortable going on being in that public way but as I'm saying we might be challenged about how do we if other people start coming forward you know how much then do we actually be reflexive and respond to other people decide how do we assess that actually you understand what you're doing and that you're confidential how do you understand that do I have a greater that even if you think that you want to share everything in public do I want to be seen as how I practice in public how do I have rights about this as well so I wouldn't advocate it by any sort of thing and I think I wanted to talk though more about how you actually can what are the issues of these things come up and you haven't you haven't set out for them to be there we've had a question over here and what are we going to do with another question hello yes one of the conundrums in medical education is that often the context of learning and the learning methods move ahead and the mirroring assessments that we apply to students don't change this will probably apply to medical practitioners in terms of the presence that you've been talking about what guidelines or what processes could be gone through for your college law builders in terms of what you might be suitable for or not or what will be acceptable practice how can we fast-track that process or update their concepts of what's acceptable and not well I think that this I mean I think that this isn't important although I'm sort of talking about getting out there and being reflexive and taking on that you know if you're there you will by necessity if you can keep conducting yourself just as being I kind of know what I'm doing first of all we don't have the rules it's not kind of clear so you have to before you even decide to go there need to be experienced you need to be you know because it is not a I am meeting students there and I'm supporting them and mentoring them if I come across them but I am not encouraging my students to go out and start having a public profile I am not sure that it is a safe place to you know to learn to be but this it also falls in like yesterday in the discussion about how students have within the VLA and within safe spaces we give they project maybe like an institutional socialised kind of identity you come across them in other spaces and they are in a way different so there are some people that are out there exploring what does it feel like to be talking in a public way about this and becoming more confident of their identity and we give you know I'm talking to some sometimes I take on this mentoring role for people across the UK medical student might say I'm thinking about writing a blog post something from Leicester or whatever I'm thinking about writing a blog post about this do you think this is okay as well have you thought would that person be able to recognise who you know you're from that maybe you should change this so in a way my role is being and it is no longer just even to people within my own institution but if I'm there as an educator in that public space I'm having a role that's you know sort of much more far reaching I think that we can there aren't to me simple sort of rules about this but and the things that have come out so far tend to be sort of saying you know it is what should I be careful which I think is right to a certain extent and maybe we could give people chances to come in and have these sort of discussions about sort of topics I'm trying to be quite careful about the things that we select for these chat sessions now we have approached some difficult things but some people is you know why don't can we talk about difficult difficult patients and I was like well I don't really feel that there are situations of difficult consultations maybe I'm a difficult doctor some days and I think that would be too complex a thing to talk about in 140 characters that would give people a chance to maybe appear on professional this is too too complicated for a discussion within this so you have to be careful about the things so it's much easier to talk about how to use technology in lecture theatre than something like that Can you wait for Mike so we can capture him So is there actually a proper definition for digital professionalism There's been some really good interesting work done by Rachel Ellaway on this about digital professionalism and actually this was published about a year ago a medical teacher and I had actually copied because that's a pay for journal I'd taken out her simple rules some of the rules and put them in a blog post so you actually want to see their kind of public there and I was saying this is although you come up with these rules easy and I think we're going to try and run a series and our kind of meta chat sessions with students and people and actually talk about what do these rules actually mean to us how do we develop amongst a group of people an idea about what these sort of ideas are what does it mean to say you should have a professional kind of presence you know what does that mean so we're going to try and hopefully tease that out so we'd love if people join in look at my blog and you'll find more about it hopefully thank you on that note Annemarie we're going to have to draw it to court so thank you for a great session


Fighting. I'm so sorry. I should have showed you more attention. This is the best Malaysian chicken skewer You can get in New York City at this price. This is lobster sticky rice for $38. So this is pretty good deal I gotta get into this first man I just this is one of the long-lasting dollar dumpling spots. Whoa Chinatown cheapies part 15 If you're wondering why we're almost 200 restaurants in and there's still more to go Then it's because New York City has the largest concentration of Chinese people of any city outside of Asia Yes, that is big facts not to mention that you know all types of people love the food So in this episode we find out if this spot is the best new Malaysian food in Chinatown If Korean fried chicken really is the wave and if Chinese burgers and boba are the new combo Please hit that like button and let's go. All right starting off this episode of cheap Chinatown eats We got a brand new spot on Grand Street in the middle of a busy busy, you know intersection guys We got eye milky but the quality is top-notch and it is very interesting to keep seeing new Taiwanese brands come over here from Taiwan to open up shops here seems like it's gonna be never-ending Here we have the fresh taro milk Taros very smooth the boba is tender and juicy up next. We got the fresh mango milk Wow, that was delicious. I definitely recommend it Guys, I actually saw a comment from an old Cantonese guy one time on one of our former videos That was saying something like along the lines of hey, man I'm tired of all these Taiwanese chains from Taiwan coming into Chinatown and gentrifying Chinatown and pushing out the other Cantonese businesses and you know, I kind of got what he was saying, but I'm gonna be honest It's just kind of like the rise of boba and the rise of boba is gonna involve a lot of Taiwanese chains because this is what People want so it's a supply-and-demand situation. I'll tell you straight up. The quality is really good All right guys, you know, we do a lot of food videos. We eat a lot of food We run around the city and it can get very tiring. I sometimes even feel sluggish So that's why I got to give a shout out to the sponsor of our video and a proud supporter of the phone grows G feel I know you guys have heard of this They work with all different youtubers tiktokers twitch streamers and they have two main products that are super super popular They have their can and their powder and they even got the shaker too So the can is really cool because it's zero calories zero sugar zero crash It actually has a lot of organic and vitamin filled ingredients in here I mean you could take a look at it broccoli kale blueberry tart cherry green tea extract It's legit guys and then their powder is very low calorie. They just have an unmatched variety of flavors I mean this one is sage mode. This one is yuzu slash I mean they have a whole bunch more you can look on their website So if you guys are interested in buying any G feel checking it out, you can go through all the different flavors They have tons of them check out the website and use our code fun grows.

I got the chicken burgers. This one spicy This one's not spicy. They're both about nine and ten dollars I would say the spices on this spicy one are a little bit Asian in the sense that it kind of tastes like that spicy Chicken filet sandwich from McDonald's that we all love. In fact, I want to just eat this piece of chicken on its own That's how good it is Perfectly cook time me not complaining bro straight up guys I don't know about the bread, but the chicken aspect is a 10 out of 10 This is burger by days half-pound Angus bacon cheese burger So actually the owner of burger by day was a former video game designer from Hong Kong He was doing Nintendo and PlayStation games and now he's doing burgers guys We got the smash burger obviously. This is very trendy right now, but they got the QP Mayo The clamshell potato bun and you know, I just think it's really cool that Asians are cooking more burgers This is something that was needed in in Chinatown, you know a place that was like, you know catering towards Asians But serving burgers Simple but delicious and those onions are charred perfectly This whole food hall kind of vibe does kind of remind me of a of a place that I've been in Singapore or Taiwan You know alright our next spot on Chinatown cheap eats is actually a Vietnamese spot. That's a classic spot that we haven't reviewed yet It's on Bowery. It's called new to though. It's been here for a while all the Chinatown heads would know this spot But I gotta say that although maybe they don't always rank the highest on any single item They have a lot of items that are very deep cut that you can't get at other viet spots I'm talking about like bun bale. They have this raw beef salad. I don't know if I'm gonna get that But maybe but anyways a lot of the dishes are under $11. Let's check it out new to though All right, the food has arrived here at new to though, and I got the full right here. This is actually under $10 This costs only 975. It's actually a really hefty bowl and then here I have the egg almond This is actually a chilled out food and because the owners are actually chilled out You know the Chinese Vietnamese they're of the diaspora, but they've been running Vietnamese restaurants for so long This is a real deep cut dish. You're not gonna find anywhere else This is only $11 the bun sale is actually very hard to find and other restaurants around here This was only $14. You got the pork belly. You got some shrimp lots of turmeric. You have your greens right here, and you have your dip I'm excited Well broth not bad. Yeah, kind of kind of sweet actually I think a lot of people are gonna like that the beef looks good. I'm just gonna try the flank steak right here Barely cooked as you know a little bit red and I don't use sriracha when I'm eating my food to be honest I'm kind of against it because I know sriracha is not very traditional Underrated man. A lot of people don't talk about new to though. They've been business for a while I mean look how murky that broth is can't even see through that. That's how you know It's got a lot of like the parts of the beef all melted into the broth I want to say their noodles are a little bit bigger than other spots too guys I got to give the fun man to be honest straight up. I haven't been here in a while Give it a 4 out of 5 This one is for the bun sale Oh Okay, okay, that's what I want to make sure thank you the Vietnamese egg roll wrapped in lettuce or the bun sale wrapped in lettuce It's actually one of my favorite things to eat. I love it. It's like crispy. It's fatty It's a little fried, but it's got meat and just the freshness from the lettuce It's got everything in this bite. I am genuinely enjoying this you guys got to come here and get the bun sale That's delicious and last but not least for under $11. We got a dish that really reminds me of the 626 because there's so many Chiljiao restaurants in the 626, but not as much out here. We have this egg omelet chiljiao style It's got the taro cake in there. Thank God, you know Mmm guys new to though has been in the game for a while. Do not forget about them Do not sleep on them. The fo is way above average. I'm really liking this and with the fresh ben sale guys It's hard to beat man. Definitely check out new to though if you're looking for Vietnamese food in Chinatown Man, it should be on the list and you know what? I've been going to my usual spots I know we all have our usual spots But I might have to break off from the norm more because I'm so glad I came back here and was reminded Why new to though has been in the game so long Next up on Chinatown cheap eats man. It's a brand new spot called curry house. It's Malaysian and Thai But it's mostly Malaysian food here. They have some deep cut dishes This is the curry beef brisket over me and the me is like the thick egg noodles Man, I'm pretty excited to try this. They also have stingray. We're about to try that So man, let me tell you this is pretty cool to have Malaysian spots that are serving things like stingray Even though that's not my favorite dish. It's just cool to see Curry beef brisket me They call this spot curry house because the curry is fire This is one of the best Malaysian curries you can get in Chinatown Guys, I think it's really cool that this spot is serving Malaysian Anti-food because those two cuisines are actually technically part of the India sphere influenced by India That's why they have a lot of curries and the curry is really really good if you've never had Malaysian curry This spot is called curry house. So they have curry skate wings and skate wings are essentially like small stingrays It's a very popular food to eat in Southeast Asia particularly Singapore and Malaysia. I had it out there They serve it all the time at the hawker stall Fried here pretty good I say it's a good way to try it if stingray usually sounds very intimidating to you because you're like I don't want to look at the whole skate wing the whole steak Try it in this form. It's a lot easier to eat Those skate wing is considered more of a throwaway fish in America Even Koreans actually eat a sizable amount too. Look, you can see it. I pulled that meat right off the bone How does it taste? It kind of tastes like a cod Type fish. Of course, you know, we have chicken rice, you know in the Singaporean Malaysian style Finely sliced with a little bit of sweet soy sauce on top here because there's a lot of Chinese in Malaysia They give you the ginger scallion the guangchong But they also give you more of the Thai version, which is a little bit spicy here. So let's take a look at this Uh-huh nice little piece Nice yellow rice. That's how you know it's flavored. Let me put it in the red sauce first Mmm for me, I actually love all chicken rices cow moon guys the high non chicken But I do prefer ginger scallion all my chicken. I think it's a great pairing. So I'm glad they serve it here Mmm. This is the most authentic ice chendol. I've seen in New York City, man It looks like it straight out the hawker stall Now the owners are from people that is a city that's in between Penang and Kuala Lumpur Let's take a look at it. Wow, dude, that looks super authentic. They got grass jelly. You have the green jelly I believe this is more made out of pandan and then you have the red bean and you have corn all with some condensed milk at the bottom Mmm. Oh, that's pretty good I know Malaysians know about some cold desserts because it can get super hot out there guys We are looking at a authentic Lamboa drink, which is just yellow pumpkin. I never even had that before In my entire life. All right, you guys, we got the ayam sate skewers Ayam in bahasa Malay is chicken We are going to be taking the house-made sate sauce drizzling it on top Of course more how you would do it in the hawker stall, but you like rotate it around like a pig in a mud With a little bit of onion. I'm telling you this is the best Malaysian chicken skewer you can get in New York City at this price Like we said Malaysian is a very interesting culture because it's part of the indiosphere But it's also part of the cymosphere and obviously it's got its own local Malay culture. This is a roti kanai This is more from the indian side But this curry is kind of a hybrid of all the cultures that make up that region because it's not going to fully taste like an Indian curry All right, you guys, we're looking at bakate, which obviously is a pork medicinal mushroom soup From that region, it's more from the Chinese side. What I'm gonna do is take one of these pieces of pork I'm going to dip it in this house-made chili sauce That's really Really really good. It is very difficult to find this bakate dish here in New York City You know when I was growing up I just really thought that Chinese people only came from like Hong Kong, Shanghai and Beijing In Taiwan, but then it actually really opened it up. Once I got older I realized there are like millions and millions of Chinese people in Southeast Asia And they've been there for like hundreds of years So their culture is really a unique mix of a lot of different layers and I think that makes it really cool Ta-da fried chicken. It is a brand new Korean concept right in the heart of Chinatown here on Bayard And that is significant. It shows how, uh, you know Chinatown is changing and becoming more Pan-Asian We love this spot though. It's from the same people that did tofu tofu on Bowery. Let's go check it out All right. So here at Ta-da, they try to make it fun They got a lot of cool drinks that you would have maybe in Korea. So this is a green tea Mandarin, um Lemonade and then this is a ginger hot tea lemonade And then this is a mango smoothie with a piece of fresh ripe mango right on the side Oh, you could come here share with friends. This is a fun drink. It's really good too Have all the popular modern Korean snacks guys, you know the things that you've seen in k dramas and k-pop Videos and this is the army stew, of course. It's got oh look at that bacon. You got hot dogs You got plenty of kimchi.  That's how you know It's fresh. Let's try it Light egg So now we have the tada fried chicken. These are the premier items I saw them each individual lathered with the sauce. So, um kelly, can you tell us more about the chicken? Oh easy to eat not too spicy. Yeah, it's not spicy at all. So sweet and spicy This is goddamn spicy. This is the the bottom level spicy and then this is not spicy.  We're talking about freshly fried every time you order Fighting Guys, this is a big old drumstick of the soy garlic freshly fried individually lathered up Wow, there are all types of people like Korean fried chicken guys. It's not just Koreans. It's not just asians It's everybody because I think honestly everybody can love fried chicken And of course you guys know the history of Korean fried chicken It does come, you know influence and inspired by the american army that was in korea that brought, you know Southern american style fried chicken over first, but man koreans have done their own thing with it and check out this new way to Eat this wing Let's see how spicy this is. This is the second level spicy That had a nice little gochujang kick, but this is the goddamn spicy the spiciest Like fried chicken, you know one of the most important aspects is that it's freshly cooked and tada is doing it and you know Sometimes when there's only like one type of restaurant in an area of that kind You kind of question like is it the best or is it just getting by because it's just the only one of its kind But no tada is very very high quality and the chicken is delicious I remember one of the things that really drew me to the san gabriel or like roland heights area Initially was how pan asian it was you could get great fud You could get great thai food Korean food and of course chinese food in that zone And I feel like that's the future of china towns around america as well pan asian towns But with a lot of respect and love for each other and boy, am I glad that it's moving in that direction Okay, so they don't just have like korean dishes. They also have the pork katsu right here That is freshly fried. Look at that Very juicy very crispy and then they also have this cold bibin nam yang This is obviously a korean dish, but it's uh, not the soupy one that most people are used to having So let me try this.  I'm just gonna dip it in like that To have this diversity of dishes here in a spot like this. It's very cool And I'm glad to see it shout out to kelly and the team It's chinatown changes and there's more pan asian non-chinese concepts coming here You know, there's also a lot of chinese restaurants opening up an east village and even midtown by korea town So, you know, all these kind of like asian enclaves or asian neighborhoods Are probably going to be exchanging a lot more in the future and I could see it happening, but I don't know. It's cool to see All right, everybody our next spot in cheap chinatown eats is a gem called round k buy salt shout out to han here on canal Guys, they have some new items on the menu for 15 bucks. You get this shrimp burger with air fried chips You've got this chicken sandwich with uh, with the pickled cabbage on it for 15 dollars And then here you got this espresso martini and during happy hour. This is only 10 dollars down from 16 dollars So that's a good deal. And then you have this purple Ube, uh, roll cake right here, which is obviously what they're known for So let me try this espresso martini get it going the espresso nice All right, so for 15 dollars you might be like, okay That's not the cheapest chicken sandwich you can get in china town But it is cheap considering the quality of ingredients and the amount of work that these ladies put in So let me try this chicken man. It looks a little different. It's definitely got some different seasoning on there. So let's try it I'm tasting some korean spices, especially some gochujang in there. That chicken is super juicy The bread is nice Everything's coming together really well. Here's the shrimps burger With the kimchi ranch right here Lots of greens That's how you notice the hit. It's so messy. I'm enjoying myself It's actually multiple fried shrimp instead of a shrimp patty I think that makes it taste honestly a lot better and you get more of that pure shrimp flavor A cream roll cake with yuzu jam on the inside. Let's take a look at that oh very aesthetically forward and uh delicious Looking at the prices. Maybe round k isn't the absolute cheapest thing you can get in china town But it is like the cheapest elevated hipster thing you can get in china town All right, so I had to tell you about soul k's night menu here I have a soul mule with jinro soju and then I have the double fried Korean popcorn chicken. I'm very excited about this. Let's check this out Oh crispy. Wow double fried This is the grandpa soju Super smoky All right, this has oak bitters in jinro 24. Han, what were you trying to do with this drink? Why'd you call it grandpa so? Because it's a smoky and then it tastes like a like old-fashioned. So that's why we named it grandpa soju All right grandpa soju I feel like i'm in a In a forest fire right now That's real kalbi That's a real kalbi skewer that she's about to put in the drink Wow I don't know. Let me just take it off. Yeah, do it Whoa, that's a true kalbi cocktail right there guys If it doesn't taste like Korean barbecue or not, are we at jongro with jinro? What what's going on? It doesn't taste like jongro. Honestly, if I had to compare it to a korean barbecue, it'd be more like cold Wow And honestly, this is one of the best inventive cocktails I've ever had in my life guys I mean you've got a gigantic piece of kalbi. They've seared it It tastes good on its own and then of course like you said the drink has some like sesame oil in it The first time I have ever seen a true Roasted meat skewer cocktail guys. This is high quality sous vide kalbi right here This is delicious.  We got a brand new pizza shop here on baxter. It is called baxter street pizza Um, you know, there's not a lot of slice spots in chinatown In fact, this might be the first one and I got to go check it out because it is asian All right, I got two slices of pizza and garlic knots all for about 14 dollars after tax Lots of garlic on top. I like to see that. This is the bodkin slice. This was recommended Cheese is gooey. Okay, and then we got the fungi slice. Okay, let's peep the mushrooms Okay, nice and cooked maybe pre-cooked before as well. So that that that's a good sign Sauce um Right off the bat the garlic knots are hidden They're very fluffy Tons of garlic flavor Honestly, I would give those garlic knots right off the gate Like a 4.5 out of 5 that's some of the best garlic knots you can get in in the area to be honest and the sauce is very Spiced I can see the pepper inside All right, everybody. I'm trying to box slice Time for the fungi one of my favorite slices in the game right now There's no meat just mushrooms Probably sauteed with some nice, you know seasoning and olive oil All right, so as far as my verdict for backstreet pizza, I gotta say guys price-wise it's solid $4 a slice, you know, that is very standard for high quality slices I feel like the cheese maybe feels a little bit less like Italian than other spots that I've been to but I'll tell you this the garlic knots are on point And I think that you know, they're just starting out and I'm glad that there's a slice spot in china town That is owned by someone of the community and I heard that maybe they are going to be able to do some Asian slices By pre-order.  That's what I've heard But you know what it's their grand opening soon. So all I gotta say is just check out backstreet pizza New York City is this new spot tip Tara tie in the lower east side in the neighborhood Obviously Thai food is nothing new, but they got some new dishes here. They have a duck They got some clay pot stuff. They got some catfish stuff and here we have the first dish the basil mussels Um, uh, it's a little bit spicy very herbaceous not too sour And this is only 11 bucks guys. I think this is a steal. You got to try this Really important that you expand beyond pad cu and pad thai actually those dishes are good. I still order them from time to time but man Listen to the people who own the shop. They'll tell you what it's going to be good. They'll tell you the best stuff to get Next up on beyond pad cu and pad thai. You guys got to check out this catfish lard. It's fried.

That's how we do it Like I said here at tiptara, they are not like any other thai restaurant As you can see here, you have your grilled coconut sticky rice with egg on it I've never seen this before and then you have the beautiful catfish lard I'm about to eat them together, of course because that's how you do it Let me grab it. Get my fingers dirty. It's worth it Wow Right here. I have their crispy duck Um, this is called the tiptara duck. It's from the samluk style of thai food and let's look at it, man It's smothered in a sweet and sour sauce with a lot of fresh Pineapples, I'm just gonna try it right like this. So I'm going in Guys, if you have had tom yum soup, pad siu, pad thai Already 10 15 times in your life and you have the chance to order these dishes. You have to try them What are you doing just getting those dishes? Hey pad pad thai is good But we're talking about tiptara duck right here What you guys the next up on china town cheap eats. We're at a brand new toy sound spot called grandmaster 95 I've got something off the lunch menu right here. This is dill yin jubai, which is a uh, just you know Salt and pepper pork chop nine bucks give you a lot of pieces And of course, I got something that is uh, not cheap cheap but cheap for what it is This is lobster sticky rice for 38 dollars. So this is a pretty good deal. I gotta get into this first, man I just you know, I see the lobster It calls my name Aren't you guys this dish on a lot of spots? Let's just say for example a hakasan 78 dollars 98 dollars 9 dollar salt and pepper pork chops kind of reminds me of 69 restaurant Back on bayard that is no longer there I would consider this a slight update on your classic china town toy sound spot You've got your cheap lunch menu items done very well more expensive seafood items except they got You know local micro brews in the fridge This salt and pepper pork chop is good.  Yeah, this is a kanto owned boba shop right here on four side guys They finally open i've seen this sign for like six months now fruit vanity. Let's go in and check it out. Look at that We're trying to get the mango mango drink that's in the window All right. I'll get a matcha avocado and we're at fruit vanity right now It's cantonese owned It's true that cantonese people do not drink as much boba as taiwanese. No, I would say cantonese people Especially hong kong knees much are more into fruit than the milk drinks or the milk teas even they even have their own Laita so actually some people in hk believe it or not. You don't drink boba. Yeah, well here I have a avocado matcha. David. You have the mango mango Yeah, I think instead of opening two concepts and why not just mix a hong kong mongol spot mango spot With a boba shop Hey guys the long awaited opening of fruit vanity. I've seen this sign for like seven months man Glad they're open to these fruits are so cocky Next up on china town cheap eats. We've got hawa smoothies and bubble tea guys This is the original location now. They've got several across the city guys It was unheard of at that time for chinese to be making fresh juices with fresh fruits But hawa set the mark All right, you guys. I just got the super crane one size ten dollars But I got it with the boba. Are these the best smoothies in china town? Yeah, yeah, she said she can verify. Yeah She's not chinese Okay, they are the best. All right, we got to confirm from the local community It's the best plus you can get boba inside of a healthy smoothie. I don't know acai blue berries cranberries and boba up in this You guys this is a china town mashup acai with boba acai flax seed boba All right as part of our late night series man, we got a late night gem And so open till 11, but it's pretty clutch for this area This is china north dumpling over on esic street in the lower east side, man This is one of the long lasting dollar dumpling spots. I mean this whole all these dumplings are only three dollars And then this was only four dollars for the bok choy and then your kimchi was only three dollars And yes, so this is chinese But obviously you can find kimchi partially just because I think everybody likes kimchi But also because the owners are from shan yang which is donbae which is really close to korea So there's a crossover there. Here you got some vinegar. I'm about to do a little bit there And that's not black vinegar. That's white vinegar here. They have their own little soy sauce mixture It's like essentially new york has its own dumpling sauce everybody does and then you douse it in this This is pretty much the way to eat it. Let's go in. These are the fried ones. They're cheaper than the steam ones that are freshly made um This is one of the best deals you can get in new york esic street a lot of hipsters eating here I think this spot feeds many many a hipster in the lower east side china north dumpling And the kimchi Dongbae kimchi chinese kimchi. I feel like the times I've had it's a little less pungent. That's a little bit toned down So this is a great accompaniment to The other greens that are not kimchi, but these are kind of like uh, they call them sauteed bok choy I think they're boiled or sauteed with a little bit of garlic a little bit of soy sauce Very great addition I don't know why I take the uh, dongbae kimchi the pow thai and uh, put it on the dumplings the jiaozi, but I just do Next up on cheap china town eats We got a brand new spot called strawberry home here on mot street They are blending ice cream with boba. It's from the same people who do misdos So, you know, the quality is there strawberry home It's homemade jiazi. David, you got brown sugar boba ice cream I have an ice cream cone and that with a special request to get mango jam on top This really looks like the ice cream cone from uh, chinese mcdonald's What do you think about people trying to bring the products like one for one from asia Like I really like that idea. I'm a huge fan of the mcdonald's shenhai mcchicken sandwich the ice cream It's a little icy, but it's very very milky has a great taste and with the mango jam It's actually pretty fire, man. It's it's not the softest soft serve, but I actually like the consistency Hey misdos, they do make good products. I have a fresh dragon fruit lemonade She took the piece of dragon fruit. She mashed it up with the lemon This is a concept that you know, I've seen more in asia So what do you guys think about china towns importing more ideas straight from asia, you know And a lot of the older china town culture or at least the china town products that were once known as china town Uh might be kind of going away or just being like aged out, you know Because obviously everything has to look very aesthetic now. Look how bright this drink is this drink like never existed before like Five years ago


Whistler, presented by the United States Air Forces in Europe. I'm the Whistler, and I know many things, for I walk by night. I know many strange tales, hidden in the hearts of men and women who have stepped into the shadows. Yes, I know the nameless terrors of which they dare not speak. Tonight it's the Whistler's strange story, Little Red Book. That's right. It was nice, and it was Panama City. And the few passengers from the Augusta Queen were waiting for the big freighter to resume her voyage to San Francisco. Larry Layton was even more restless than some of the other passengers. Also, he was bored. He'd had little success in trying to strike up an acquaintanceship with an attractive young woman on board. And now, from the aft rail, he could see her going ashore with a portly little gentleman, clad in ill-fitting white linen. It's annoying, isn't it, Larry? What such an attractive girl can see in a man like that? And suddenly you decide that you must know. Ashore, you follow. See them turn down an alley. You walk to the entrance to the alley. Stop it, Roy.  Not so mixed up. I don't know why I talk too much after a few drinks. You're the wrong dame. I'll teach you how to talk to Roy Tate, Julie. Don't keep dames for anything on Roy Tate, you understand? I'm gonna be...  Because suddenly it's more than eavesdropping on a lover's quarrel. A moment later, the girl runs past you. You wait a moment, and then enter the alley. The man who called himself Roy Tate is quite dead, isn't he, Larry? A knife lying nearby. You lean down quickly and search him. Find that his wallet still contains a considerable amount of money. Quickly, you put it in your pocket, and then wrap the knife in your handkerchief. And in a few minutes, you're back on board and entering the ship's bar. Oh, hello, curly. You on, Dan? Sorry, honey, I'm not in the mood. Oh, nobody wants to see you. That's and so does Sam. Sure thing, Mr. Layton. Are there other types to your liking? Oh, yeah, yeah. Evening, Miss Frazier. Hello, Sam. Still nothing for me beautiful? What? All this mileage together, not even a smile, no greeting. And I believed all that stuff about shipboard friendships. Oh, I'm sorry. I never noticed you. Ouch. Sorry, again. Well, that's better. Thank you. Thank you. Same as yours. Much better. Sam. I'm on it, Mr. Layton. Mr. Layton, Miss Frazier. Can't we make it, Larry, and uh... Julie, of course. And I'm Marie. Oh, well, hello, Marie. Boy, I'm sailing tonight. You sure are. Oh, now don't tease me, Curly. Just trying to have a little fun, sure. Go on, Larry, dance with the ladies. But I just thought it was... Yeah, I'll put on another ride. Fine thing. I'll do the same for you someday. Well, come on, Curly. All right, all right. It's all quite different than before, isn't it, Larry? Julie's a different girl. And you're amazed at her calmness after what you saw her do to roytate only a short while before. The moments in the ship's bar stretch into hours, as along with other passengers. The two of you wait for the ship to get underway. You and Julie are finally dancing together now. And you make several attempts to learn what it was all about. One thing you do know, the girl in your arms can be as lethal and deadly as she is beautiful. Ooh, one day we'll live. Better than roytate? What do you know about royt? Very little. I spoke to him a couple of times on the voyage down. By the way, where is he? Didn't he go ashore with you? Yes, he did. But didn't come back with you? No. Roy isn't going to come back here. Oh? He's, um, meeting another ship. Going back where he came from, you mean? Something like that. Let's not talk about him anymore. Okay. I just wondered. I didn't see him taking any luggage ashore. Don't the person think it's odd that... Roy sent a message back with me. He wanted his luggage sent to the International Hotel. House for arrival. There and now. I see. Well, I, uh, am glad he thought of everything. He did. Funny. What's funny? You two seem so, well, chummy on the voyage down. Like you said, you didn't even notice me, and I was trying hard, believe me. You said there was something funny. Well, just that now you don't even seem to miss Roy. You want me to miss him? No. Why, are you so concerned about him? Okay. What's okay? Like you said, let's not talk about him anymore. That's better, Neri. That's it. Now it's my turn again, Julie. Curly blams to a little more, you know. Wait a minute. Um, Sam, is that sailing time? Right, Mr. Layton, almost 12. You want to go out on deck? Won't you get underway? No, thanks. I'm going to turn in. Nice, Sam. I'm afraid. Hmm. Now, Curly, we got the whole body right now. You and Sam have the whole body yourselves. I'm awfully tired, Marie. I'm turning in too. Oh, nobody wants to have any fun at the fine stage. This is where I came in. Good night, all. You go out on deck and wander along the rail, watching the deck crew as they work to get the ship underway. You know which state room is Julie's, don't you, Larry? 11B. You're still wondering if she took anything away from Roy Tate. There has to be a reason for murder. Outside of 11B, you pause. Grant in just in time to see Julie staring at an ordinary little address book. Carefully, she circles an address, and then hides the book behind a wall mirror. Then quite suddenly, the light goes out. If you leave passing, hurry away. A few swift steps along the deck can bump squarely into another passenger. Oh, I'm sorry. Oh, it's all right, Curly. Oh, hello, Marie. Oh, OK. I shouldn't have been in such a hurry. All right, all right. I'll tell you. Anyway, everybody's in a hurry, don't you think so? Everybody's either running after something or away from something. Don't you think so, Curly? Don't you think so? Yeah. Yeah, I suppose they are. And now, we're all starting to run through. We're getting under way. You know, this could be a very interesting voice. Yeah, Marie, it could be a very interesting voice. Now, back to the Whistler. The question marks that surround Julie Frazier. You know that she killed a man in the back alley of Panama, a man named Roy Tate. But you don't know why. And in the days since the Augusta Queen sailed for San Francisco, you've been unable to learn more, even though you've been with Julie almost constantly. You wonder if it has anything to do with a little red address book, which Julie keeps hidden in her state room, and you're determined to somehow examine that book. But your opportunity doesn't come until the morning the ship approaches San Francisco's Golden Gate. You wait on deck until she leaves her state room and passes you on her way into breakfast. A moment later, you're trying the door of her state room and find it open. Inside, you cross to the wall mirror and take the little red address book from where you watched Julie hide it. Quickly examine the addresses inside. You find one carefully circled, copy it, and place the book back in its hiding place. That afternoon, Marie bid you a tearful goodbye. It consists on your writing down an address where you can reach her in San Francisco. But your mind is only on Julie. Finally, a tug pulled your ship slowly towards the dock. Well, here we are. It's all over. It doesn't have to be, Julie. I mean, can't I see you to your hotel? No, Larry, I'm sorry. I have other things to take up my time in San Francisco. Well, I guess Marie must get her information from a crystal ball. Marie? Yeah.  Says that's when she's moving in. I'm not rushing you off, if you put it. I'm sorry, Larry. It's something I can't explain. Perhaps we will meet again sometime. Julie, if you're in any trouble, need a strong arm. No, I'm not in trouble. It doesn't. Well, it's goodbye, that's all. It has to be. Okay, Julie. So it's like you said. Goodbye. But you've no intention of letting Julie get away from you, have you, Larry? No. It's simply that you'll have to play things her way at the moment. As the ship ties up, you're the first to shore. And a short time later, your cab follows the one Julie takes to a large downtown hotel. As you hurry inside, you see her enter the cocktail lounge. You slip into a back booth and watch as she slides the little red book across to the bartender, and then turns and walks away. Your eyes follow her as she moves through the lobby toward the desk. Then you lean back and order a drink.  What it means? Why she left it here? And you decide it's time for a showdown. You finish your drink, and then step across to the hotel desk. Good afternoon, sir. Miss Julie Frazier, what's her room number, clerk? Miss Frazier? Oh, let me see. I believe she just checked in. I'm surprised at you, old man, that you'd forget her so quickly. Miss F is a very, very attractive young lady. Well, I'm sorry, sir, but we have no Miss Frazier. Oh, now look, she was here just a few minutes ago. Lawn, medium height, wart and coat, brown hat with a... Oh, that young lady. Yeah, that young lady. Now, come on, come on, what's her room number? What was her number? She isn't staying here, sir. But I saw her. She clearly wished to know the correct time. The correct... Ah, thanks. Loads. You hurry outside, but Julie is nowhere in sight. You've let her get away, haven't you, Larry? And you're certain now you've lost her for good. And you still don't know why the little red book is so important. Why Julie killed a man for it? However, there's still the address, isn't there, Larry? The address you copied from that little red book. The answer you're looking for could be there, couldn't it? You set out for that unknown address. Glad you're carrying Julie's knife in your pocket. In case you need a little, uh, protection. Well, well, hello, Larry. Julie, as they often say, fancy meeting you here. I've been expecting you. Come in. Thanks. Sit down. Have a drink? Scotch if you have it. Anything else if you haven't. Oh, you're easy to please. Not always. Meaningful. I'm very particular about my women. Oh. Are you real? Yeah, really. Soda? Soda. You know, Larry, I must say I'm surprised. Oh. But it turned out to be you. Well, I thought you said a moment ago you were expecting me. I was expecting someone, but I didn't know it would be Larry Curley Leighton. You're not sorry, are you? Go about that. Here's your drink. Thanks. Uh, not joining me? Later perhaps. Um, do you mind if I sit here? No. No. Lots of room. Uh, tell me something, Larry. Did you expect to find me? Let's say I was counting on you very much. Oh, then you knew all along. A board ship, I mean. Maybe. Silly, really. You could have saved yourself all this trouble. Why didn't you tell me then? I was in no hurry. Weren't you, darling? I was glad you weren't much help, you know. When I tried to see you home, you fluffed me off with something about leaving it as just a ship or a friendship. Remember? No, that's right. I did say that tonight. Yeah. And so you had to go back to the cocktail lounge and get my address. And here you are. Yeah. Here I am. Do you, uh, have the money? Money? Pay off, darling. Well, that's something we should talk over. Talk over? Oh, no. Easy, baby. Look, the job done and a deal is a deal. You were to bring the money to the address circled in the little red book. No negotiating, no questions asked. Relax. Sure I'll relax when you handle without $30,000. $30,000? My, my, all that money. We could have an awful lot of laughs together. We? What are you talking about? A partnership? When we collect that dough, we split it. When we collect it? But, but I thought you... You thought that I was the payoff, boy. The happy chap with the folding stuff. Uh-uh. I see. Oh, Julie. Julie, how could you be so stupid? No, no. Now look, handsome. You think you're going to muffle in here? Think. I am in, Julie. Are you? Sure. We just sit here and wait till the payoff comes along.  You ruin everything. I... The book. When you picked it up at the bottom, did you see? How was the party?  Relax. I didn't pick up the book. I didn't have to. What? How did you know to come here? Haven't we better answer that? Yes, that's right. Yes. Uh, no, don't send it over here. I'll come and pick it up. Better change your mind, sweetheart, or this night might slip. Sorry. Wait a minute. Who is I saying? Hello? I'm, uh... I'm second thought. I think you'd better bring it here. Yes, yes. I'll be waiting. So the payoff is on its way over, huh? Yes, but you won't see any of it. I'm not splitting that money. 15,000 each isn't too bad. I'm keeping the whole 30,000. You'll see. I don't think you will, Julie. Oh, please. Father, you're being so close to your lily-white throat. Or are you just remembering what happened in Panama? Panama? What do you know about this? That guy Roy Tate was a sucker to trust you, baby. The guy who did the job, huh? He told you how he was going to get paid for it.  No, I didn't. Sure you did, Julie. With this knife. Oh, yes. I saw you. It's your knife, baby. And I want you to have it. Oh, wait.  For a moment you're stunned, aren't you, Larry?  Then the whole weird story whirls across your mind. The way Julie killed Roy Tate in a back alley of Panama. Your own confused thoughts were wondering it to the reason. The little red book that she took from him. The way she circled her own address instead of his. And now finally what it all added up to from the beginning. That Julie had found out how Roy Tate, a professional killer, was to be paid off. She hadn't counted on your interference at you, Larry. No. And now you've put her out of the way. And it's you that waits in her quiet apartment for the payoff money. And finally Fraser had a boyfriend. That's right. Look, Julie had to step out. We're working together. You could leave the money with me. Oh. And I think I'd better have a look around. Here's my identification.  Birkin, homicide. Well, what do you know? Come to pick up a murderer, find her dead, and the guy that killed her waiting for her. Look, I don't know anything about what happened. All right, save it, fellas. Save it. The prints on the knife will settle that. Yeah, but I guess you don't know some other things. Bring Marie in, Sergeant. Marie? Curly. I don't get it, Marie. I'm the one who was to make the payoff for that grisly killing in the east. The syndicate gave me the money and told me to come out here to make the payoff. Get the address from the Little Red Book. Then I got ideas of my own. Yeah, keep talking, Marie. Curly here seems very interesting. Well, when Roy Tate left New York by boat for San Francisco, I figured he was the trigger man. So I flew to Panama and caught the Augusta Queen for San Francisco. I thought I could talk Roy into a 50-50 split of that payoff money, but Roy wasn't even a board. He had been. Yeah, yeah, I found that out when we got to San Francisco. I read in the papers that Roy Tate was found stabbed to death in Panama. But, but how'd you happen to tie Julie up with it? I picked up the Little Red Address Book when I was supposed to and called the phone number. And then when I recognized Julie's voice, I saw my chance. To do what? To get rid of her. To tip off the police that she was getting the payoff. I didn't bring the cops and trace my call so quick. I picked me up when I walked out of the phone booth. But why, Marie? Why did you want, why did you want Julie out of the way? She meant nothing to you. No. But she meant something to you? You see, I thought we'd have such a good, just you and me. With that 30,000 bucks of payoff money. Be with us again next week, when once again the United States Air Forces in Europe present The Whistler.

Australia has the best universities in the world. Aside from that the people are cool and caring, they have respect for life. Australian universities are in the top 20 or top 50 best world universities. As the saying goes, it's better to teach a man how to fish than to give fish. When we gain the knowledge and skills in Australia, it goes a long way in contributing towards the development of our countries. The best thing that they can export to the rest of the world I think it's all about tolerance and the mixed culture you have in this country, being able to accommodate everybody from various ethnic groups, from various parts of the world. Being as one family I think is something that is missing in most countries. The quality of life in Australia is, you can't ask them more. The services that they offer, their people, health, education, it's the best that the world can, that you can actually get in the world.


's worse for you and you too Matt because you both still have like regular nine to fives I do this, I do news for a living and I'm burnt out too it's just this is when the news cycle is this bad you just beat you down my sister's coming down in the summer and she's gonna take over my job with my mom for like the whole summer so I can focus on streaming and I'm like, yes! nice, that's awesome I've been doing this job since I was 16 years old I've never done another job besides animal setting too because I'm an animal whisperer and so I'm like, oh my god I've been doing this job for like 14 years and I'm gonna have like two months off to do what? because my life is my work period I don't have a social life or time to do anything else so I'm like, what am I gonna do with this free time stream 12 hours a day like a song or what do I do? that's awesome and you've never taken any time off like this you've just been working straight through the only COVID for like two weeks but like two months I'll be like yeah, two months is a lot hell yeah, that's good alrighty, so we've got Jcast $5 spoiler alert Einstein joins the Avengers after Oppenheimer eventually turns into Dr. Doom well, Killian Murphy is the ultimate fancast for Dr. Doom so I get it Mali with $10 thank you Mali, I wrote a thread on X about how USGOP is influencing homophobia in East Africa yeah, government's passing laws permitting the death sentence for being gay I'll check it out, inky octopus I will, I'll check that out for sure that's been doing it for a while now yeah, Mali, I'd be interested so I'm working on a second edition of the book that I released nine years ago and I'm back in the research and writing phase again, I'd be interested in sending that to you since you also focus on LGBTQ plus rights in developing countries I'd like to get your thoughts on that for sure, I think you'd be a good source so send me a message if you're interested this is our 499, thank you so much Mike, when's the dog cam happening missed engagement opportunities are just passing you by yeah, honestly I haven't twitch streamed in a really long time and I've been really getting the itch to do it again, I just don't have a lot of time to do it, I just need to find a good schedule for it because it's hard I don't want to do a twitch stream when I feel like I'm just throwing it together I throw it together all the time yeah, no and I think that works for some people I think that you do fine with that but for me I want people to I want to be engaging and stuff like that but I do miss it and I do miss the chats, I just need to find a better time for it so I do want to do that and I think that Puppy wants to be back on dog cam too so so I don't have a youtube channel but subscribe to Movie Night Extravaganza because we do that every Tuesday and again next Tuesday on the 21st we are gonna have Sam Cedar on and yeah, I'm excited about that one that's fine, yeah your girl has a crush on her and he knows that, but anyway because she just answered the question without me even reading it the question from Miss Siren was where is Christine on youtube I should just hire Forrest as my editor but I can't pay him I would rather have him do the work if I could pay him because the movie podcast is all he really does at this point and he never mentions that he worked for Michael I'm like, dude, you were Michael Brooks'a I'm like, no, mention that yeah, that's a big flex I would be plugging that flex in all the time with that yeah uh terabyte, $2 happy to have you at the show of LM oh, thank you so much, Terri, you're so sweet I absolutely love you, thank you next one is for Matt narrator with a membership superchat in one piece, fishmen have to stay in fishmen island and if they leave they can be made slaves also humans terrorize them in fishmen island too, interesting yeah, there's a lot of interesting themes in one piece I just got to episode are you watching the live one? I've watched the live action and now I'm watching the anime of it and it's very good I really am enjoying it I really like the live action so I thought, hey, I should check out the anime and yeah, it's really, really good I think that Luffy is a hilarious character I just rewatched Piki Blinders just because I wanted to feel something okay, hang on my mouse is freaking out hang on, god damn it okay jkast, David Dole is streaming with David Pakman on Centrus Mafia right now LLJK that would be pretty funny okay, hang on sorry, my mouse is dead and I'm trying to oh boy, Mike really fucked it all up here good job, Mike plug it in really quick it's an apple mouse I'll just see if I could find where you are and I'll just take over unbelievable all right, I see it this is for you, Mike okay Fuggy Boots Ling $10 Canadian I grow vague on the roof of my home in Waterloo, Ontario brought a bunch of herbs from my roof it's a place across from me this summer they kept the basil basil and oregano what are you, Gordon Ramsay? the basil first I called Trump Tupac but to call him Tupac and I'm saying basil at least at least you're speaking speaking the queen mother's English calling Trump Tupac was out of nowhere that was so weird they kept the basil and oregano didn't put it on my pizza, WTF interesting my mouse is completely like dead I don't know if I'm out of battery or what narrator with a $10 Super Chat has Sanders ever condemned Israel I know he's expressed sympathy for Palestinians called for negotiations but always both sided the violence why are left this acting surprise I don't know if he's ever condemned Israel but he's called for ceasefire between the two he also has been a very I will never forget the 2016 debate in Brooklyn between Hillary and Bernie because there was a whole section where they were debating Israel and Palestine and at that point I had never heard anyone on on in such a mainstream position speak so adamantly in favor of Palestinians and I felt like that was a major moment I felt that was an amazing turning point in our politics so yeah I think he has never been anti-Israel but he's usually made it clear that he cared about the Palestinians when other people in similar positions of power did not and that's what makes this even more disappointing I think because so far it's only Dick Durbin in the Senate still, right, this call for a ceasefire that's it just Dick Durbin which is the last person I would have suspected to do it first yeah, you'll have to take over Matt because I can't get my mouth to connect this is for me zero PE with a super chat you don't make anti-black jokes or anti-trans comments Matt, that's one thing you could disagree with Vash on oh, I'm sorry that you're complaining about it I'll start making more anti-black and anti-trans jokes no, I get what you're saying I don't know if Vash says these things I've never and I don't watch that much of any YouTuber all right, yeah so if if that's true then obviously I am that's where we would disagree but also I don't think we could debate on that it's just it's not like a position or a policy or an ideology yeah, that's all right and if that's true then I'm differ I'm not gonna try to not differ on that Ethan oh, this is for you okay, and finally my mouth is working after I knocked all my shit off of this oh my god okay, Ethan Osborn, $10, thank you so much embrace antarcticism antarcticism my brain really wants to say anarchism but the common heritage of mankind principle governing and binding the antarctic treaty system is communist I didn't know this or maybe I did but I forgot but that's interesting I'll look into that nice zero PE, thank you all and thank you for the 499 thank you all for highlighting the Congo yes, absolutely because there is a lot it's a very long list unfortunately let's see here there would be a downside this is for me a balthazar 999 thank you so much there would also be a downside of validating all the Mormon conspiracies about ancient Jews sailing to America the dome of the rock what do you mean it's clearly here in the USA that's true, yeah for those who don't know the Mormons believe I'm going to butcher it but they think that Jesus is going to come back to the United States or that Palestine is in the United States I don't know specifically what it is but it's very geographically illiterate it's been a while since I've looked at that but it's very fucked up I don't know about any of that but Mormon do to come to move into this armor complex they love to try to pick up on me to be a wife and I'm like I'm not dressing up like that I'm not converting, I'm sorry I'm an atheist Mormons are very usually nice in my experience they're nice but it's like when they knock on my door you fucked up that's not okay don't bug me and sell me religion that's the worst thing you could do you might as well just spit in my face probably worst things they could do don't don't bug me with the bullshit about religion I keep getting these letters from local Jehovah's Witnesses it's like these handwritten letters and it's like I swear to God stop there are people who like to randomly find search people on the internet and give them a nice card that happened to my mom after my father died and we're like who the hell is this we're dating and give us an uplifting card sweet and all but couldn't give us money somebody in the chat says Mormons believe the garden of Eden was in Jackson County, Missouri it's like really weird fucking shit like this that's interesting very weird stuff let's see narrator with ten dollars they're worse to their own people but that's a limited scope no country treats its own people worse we treat the black and brown people in a global south i think that's fair we're a very fucked up country where are the worst undeniably so my dogs are got twenty dollars Canadian i don't know why i like that happy 50th episode thank you for the content really appreciate you saying that you're truly an inspiration to me oh my goodness well thank you keep speaking truth to power i'm recovering from a knee replacement so i'm feeling good at this particular moment hell yeah i mean you guys all you guys deserve praise because there are so many people not gonna mention names who have disappointed me in this space you know their views have changed i think you should name a few go ahead well you know a few of them but i can't say this is the show the way you can say that and uh you know i'm kind of still friends with her it's you know i was there give me more i wanna hear more drama drama drama i want more but there are other people too so it's like who anna is a given give me another one give me someone who we wouldn't expect you don't have to christina do it it's close to but be aggressive be aggressive come on give it a bit but yeah it's you know you guys have stayed you know true to yourselves in the end i think that's that's good like a lot of people say sam's a show and emma's a show and i'm like no sam sam and emma yeah i'm like no who says that there are other people who call every one of us shit libs oh oh you don't count yeah i'm like yeah all right we've got a couple for you on a romat all right brian b with the super chat forget getting him as a guest kyle klinsky needs to be instated as a

they eat and he has like a lot of gummy stuff from what i remember is this also for me? oh yeah a couple of them are for you yeah be bukkaneer with a $10 super chat matt you hear about the tiktok influencer who has offered $5000 to promote pro israeli talking points others have been approached to i have heard about this i am skeptical about some of the stuff i've seen because i think one of the emails that someone shared it was like the most stereotypical like name possible where it seemed like it could have been a fake but i have seen people who have not shared that type of stuff say that they've received stuff to the point where it's probably going on but also be careful that you're not sharing one that isn't for real i mean you see a bunch of celebrities share the same sort of content across the board at around the same time same wording and everything if not like a paid campaign like there clearly is some sort of influencer campaign going on right another one for you narrator with a $20 super chat if you're not willing to possibly risk American lives or privilege for the sake of foreign lives actively being taken that's your politics the politics of cynicism and self interest but it's not my politics but at anyone good night thanks narrator this one's for me balthazar 228 with 499 thank you so much zero is confused vosh only goes after horses i know what that's about i'm not gonna mention any of that i don't know what that's about but based on your reaction i don't wanna know okay last one for the synapsis with the super chat got it welcome to my life if you're favorite welcome to my life if you're favorite for all three of you what is your favorite soft drink soda brand and flavor i mean i like any sort of non diet caffeinated soda coke, Pepsi, Dr Pepper i'm just straight up coke certain flavors of mountain do i like Baja Blast the best that is fantastic only available at Taco Bell yeah anything like that is good to me what about your mic i'm gonna say diet Pepsi that's my favorite right now but it changes sometimes it's diet coke sometimes it's Dr Pepper can't do diet no good it's not sweet yeah i just like Coca Cola because i'm a big fan of peanut butter it's kind of a genetic thing and there's nothing better than the coke and the taste of peanuts or peanut butter go so well together oh this is okay someone just mentioned it synapsis said got it welcome to my life is your favorite that was in reference to the very first question what my favorite simple plan song was welcome to my life all right well that's everything? oh wait over

subscribe at prime thank you spooky sequels no comment chick cc rated earlier about 30 minutes ago i didn't even see that thank you no comment chick really appreciate that she's great and a social communist re-subscribe at prime subscriber for 17 months thank you so much really appreciate it folks was there anything oh mike did you have any on twitch i don't have any on twitch but when it comes to who we should raid i have a person in mind oh wait hold on there's one more super chat oh there's two more super chat this one's for you mike is it? i don't see that on my side oh it's not showing up for me are you sure this isn't for david dole maybe it's for david dole it's not for me well it's an osborne two dollars hanklin haus said y'all are afraid to debate them lol what wait he specifically mentioned leftist mafia i will mr p i will debate hanklin any day are you kidding me are you kidding me well he's gonna well let me let me i will obviously debate hanklin uh at a agreed schedule time because he's gonna pull that shit where he's gonna like send me like a live stream link when he's live and i'm unavailable and say you said anytime i will be happy to debate hanklin when i'm available and when he's available when we're both available for a debate but yes i would absolutely do that did he really call us out specifically i don't think that he is somebody who should be given your attention or anyone's attention he is not a good faith actor he is a grifter so it doesn't matter if you do a debate with him and you btfo him you're just giving him what he wants i think that's what happened with sam cedar sam cedar debated him and then he like he got popular in part because of that when grifters they are so thirsty for attention and clout you have to deny them that attention that these attention whores seek so i personally would recommend you don't debate him you can say that we're afraid to debate you or not suck my dick i don't care about you you don't need attention that's why i don't do debates because they're just pointless and discuss why people someone wanted me to go on a panel like a debate panel for the last center conservative about is it cool to have sex with dogs and i'm like i'm not debating that topic i'm just fucking kidding me that's not worth a debate we shall agree that it's not it's wrong i was on one debate panel so dylan burns invited me to a debate panel i didn't really know this was going to be a debate panel and it gave me brainworms i'm like dylan what the fuck did you get me into there was this weird maga shut on there that wouldn't shut the fuck and that was my first and last debate i tried to debate what's his name sticks hexen hammer on the drunken peasants and then he built three times okay what is the point this is so pointless i still i think i think i still i think i still have the version of hankle that debated sam cedar in my mind and i forgot he's become a completely uh onroids complete like far right grifter the dude is nazi posting i just muted him i don't want to see this dipshit on my feed i don't think you should get people like that depending on what it was i think i would i would based on the topic because the dude is spreading so much bullshit you know no one calls him out on it well i don't like anybody takes him seriously is why probably he's got two million followers on twitter now buddy so there is ample evidence that somebody posted i can't remember who that he bought it that he just like jumped from like 200k to like a million you're a good investigator on this i think that you should look into that i do think something is obviously but also it's not like his posts don't get a lot of interactions he's getting tons of interactions no for sure but yeah some of that shit is some of that shit is straight up just like he's paying for like he's just i think clout chasers and grifters should not be given attention but i'll show you if i could find the tweet somebody posted like his social blade and it's like oh this is completely organic and natural but okay is there you said there was one more right i don't think i think this is for you also or for david dole for me tony rizzo with a member chat patreon.com slash matt binder and if you got a few bucks to spare after that linktree slash rizzo tony mama needs a new pc tony is a regular listener and viewer
