Mason Plumlee, Athletes on Social Media & Improving Your Jump Shot | #AskGaryVee 251 - Duration: 24:45.

- On this episode NBA star Mason Plumlee stops by.

(hip hop music)

- [Gary] You ask questions,

and I answer them.

This is The #AskGaryVee Show.

Hey everybody. This is Gary Vay-ner-chuk

and this is episode 251

of The #AskGaryVee Show.

Pretty excited about this because I'm a huge NBA fan and

we have a real life NBA player here with us.

Mason Plumlee is here.

I'm gonna give him a second to tell everybody about himself but

you also are noticing no phone today.

We've decided to go old school on The #AskGaryVee Show.

I put out a tweet.

We got some questions.

Andy K, it's your chance to finally be India.

I'm happy for you.

This is something you've wanted for three or four years.

I've seen the notes back and forth.

You know, DRock showed me a text a couple years ago.

Said something like, "What the fuck?

"Why does India always get to do this?"

So this is a big moment for you as well, my friend.

I'm happy for you.

- [Andy] Thank you. - You're welcome.

Alright, Mason, why don't you tell the Vayner Nation

a little bit about yourself. - Yeah.

You know, obviously I play basketball.

From Indiana originally,

went to high school and college in North Carolina.

Spent my first two years with the Brooklyn Nets.

Two years, year and a half with the Portland Trailblazers and

then I was traded to Denver February this season.

So, you know, I'm going into restricted free agency this

off-season so I'm looking forward to that.

Basketball's my passion, it's what I do.

It gets me out of bed in the morning.

I don't have to think about it.

I just love it and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

So, that's my story and that's how I'm here.

- Couple things.

Tell me about, so first of all, being able to do what you love

is like the greatest, right? - Yeah.

- What outside of the basketball?

When we start going into the Mason's sphere of interests

that's out of that. - Yeah.

- Entrepreneurship, sci-fi, food.

Give me some context here and the viewers at home.

- Two things that I've really been drawn to,

one being real estate.

I've enjoyed different real estate projects that

I've done with partners.

Did a couple here in Jersey when I lived in Jersey.

And then some in Washington state when I lived in Oregon.

So real estate has been very interesting to me.

- You have like an awesome

business model figured out, right?

I play in a new market, buy up. Right?

- Yeah.

- You want to get traded and do stuff in free agency just to

build your real estate empire.

- No, honestly, you always want to be the player that's Kobe.

One franchise your whole but if it doesn't happen why not take

advantage of being all over. - Pretty cool.

So real estate has been interesting to you.

- Real estate's been interesting.

- And fruitful. Right? - Yeah.

- I'm thinking about your career and how long

you've been in the league.

The real estate market has been really

strong during those years. - Yeah, for sure.

- So what? You buy things and rent out?

- I've done rehab projects.

I've invested in other people's projects but then also just

starting to explore development with a partner that I have.

To me it's I've always wanted to take advantage of like I have a

window where I know I have contracts

and money coming in but

NBA you can't play until you're 60.

- You're not golfin'.

- Right, so there's a finite time to a career and I want to

take advantage of the earnings that I have during this time and

put aside some assets for when I retire.

- And not just earnings, right?

I mean here we are sitting.

Obviously, we got connected through the inner weavings of

our organization but you're obviously thinking about,

look, 40 million people email this place,

"I want to be on the show."

Obviously, not only the dollars and what you can deploy but

having the platform of the NBA itself--

- For sure. - that gives you opportunities.

How are you thinking about the leverage

of just the awareness of brand?

Are people willing to say yes to things

while you're in the league?

I think one of the things that I always tell players,

I started a sports agency we're starting to rep players.

My brother AJ's running it.

Today's a big day.

We may have one of our first players ever get drafted.

I tell them, look, I remember this vividly.

I told a kid right to his face, I go,

"Look, the only reason I'm sitting with you

"is you're a New York Jet." - Right.

- And the Jets are like my heart and soul.

I'm like, "If you're a Bronco tomorrow,

"I'm gonna lose your number."

And I actually meant it.

Not like to razz him because I was tell him

he was acting like a dope. - Yeah.

- And he wasn't taking advantage of all the things he could be

taking advantage of. - Right.

- You also, it's funny you said North Carolina.

You went to Duke, right? - Yes.

- (blows raspberry) It's one of

the most popular colleges in the world.

There's just hundred and thousands of people that are

ruling the world that are willing to meet with because you

went to that university. - Yeah.

- The access is insane. - Yeah.

And I had great veterans when

I came in as a rookie in the league.

Kevin Garnett told me, he's like,

"Look, you can pretty much sit down or

"meet whoever you want to."

He said, "You just have to take the initiative to reach out to

"'em and they'll take your call or whatever you want to do,

"they'll at least listen to you."

- Did he then punch you in the face?

'Cause he seems like that kind of character.

- No, yeah but he was right.

And into that point too he also made the point that he's like,

"Once you're done playing," he's like,

"they probably aren't picking up.

"You might not get to sit down.

"You might not get the return call, whatever."

But he was like, "Don't wait until you're 40."

He was playing with me when he was 38 years old but he's like,

"Don't wait 'til you're 40 to pick up the phone,

"to take advantage of the platform that you have."

- You know it's funny you just said that.

One of the things that would be interesting is to think about

not only the real estate arbitrage when you're in a new

markets but the social graph, right?

So like, it's kind of interesting, right?

Like who are the 5 to 25 men and women that you

want to meet when you're in Portland.

Literally when you get traded to Denver like is one of the

processes, and this is for all the aspiring athletes out there

or actual athletes.

You know, okay, now I'm in Denver.

Like literally, who are the 15 to 25 business or cultural

leaders of Denver that I want to meet and you pull it off.

- Yeah. - It's interesting.

Okay. How was Duke?

- Duke was great, man. I enjoyed it.

I stayed all four years.

Guys don't do that anymore.

I enjoyed it enough to stay.

- You're like a unicorn. - I know, right?

But no, it was a lot of fun. Had a great experience.

- Fan base is ridiculous, right? - Fans are the best.

- What about when they're pissed at you?

- Yeah, that's hard.

- When they were pissed at you, were they tough or were they

kinda fully bought in and they won so much and

you guys have a such a winning.

I always think that

winning organizations are soft, really.

- Yeah. - You know?

Like they're winning often, they could only get.

When I get mad at a Jet player, I hate them with all my heart

because we haven't won ever. - Right, right.

- And so I'm like I'm really fucking pissed at you, dude.

Like I want to win.

Whereas with the Yankees when I won a bunch,

I'm like yeah, I'm mad at you but

we won so many championships.

Like no big deal, bro.

- Yeah, well, you know they had a rough stretch before I got to

school and then the group I was with my freshman year we won the

championship so it was a good--

- You started off on the right foot.

- And then it was like the next three years you're trying to get

back to that and it never happened so you have to enjoy

the moment and take it for what it is 'cause it's not guaranteed

to happen again.

You go there one time in your freshman year and you're like,

"Oh, this is just what happens."

That's not the case.

- Knowing a lot of my fan base is a mix,

I think some of them may not know a lot about you.

Tell them a little bit about the family dynamics that I think are

really intriguing with you.

- Yeah, so I have two brothers who play in the NBA as well.

I have a little brother with the New York Knicks and then I have

an older brother with the Charlotte Hornets.

We all had one year together in high school,

one year together in college but those are my best friends.

I think I've alway benefitted from watching my older brother

go through the same process that I'm about to embark on.

And then I've been able to help my little brother,

too so it's been a great dynamic for me.

And then also I have a little sister who,

she plays volleyball at Notre Dame.

And now I'm just like a cheerleader 'cause I don't know

anything about volleyball.

But I'm happy for her.

- Dude, are your parents like

the greatest athletes of all time?

- No, they were athletes.

They weren't the greatest but they would tell you that too.

But we grew up-- - It's crazy to think--

- Yeah.

- like forget about even having the DNA,

the parenting. - Mhmmm.

- The serendipity. - Yeah.

- The great fortune. - Yep.

- To have three boys in the NBA is so mind bending.

- Yeah, I mean you see a lot of brothers,

a lot of twins.

- [Gary] Yes. - But,--

- [Gary] Three is--

- we're happy that Marshall joined the NBA family.

- [Gary] Yeah. - Yeah.

- The three thing, how often has that happened?

Three brothers in the league.

- One other time. - Which was?

- I think it was the Barrys. - Right. And their dad played.

Right, right. - Yeah, so.

- That's just insane. - It doesn't happen that often.

- Do you guys think that eventually you'll go on the road

like when you're retired and you'll be all about,

there's something really there.

- Yeah. - [Gary] I'm serious.

- No, we could definitely do something fun.

We've always talked about, the best part about it is spending

our off-season together and working out together.

So I have my little brother here,

like I said with the Knicks.

My older brother likes New York too so--

- You guys are setting up camp here this--

- Yeah. Pumblee--

- Who's the best player? - Me. We all say that. So...

- But what's the true answer? - Me.

- It is, right? - Yeah, yeah.

I would tell you the truth. - Yeah, I believe you.

Alright, Andy let's do this.

This is your big moment. - [Andy] My big moment.

- What's the first question?

- [Andy] Jason Crocker asks,

"Dude dropped 40 points on me in high school.

"How early did you decide to go all-in on basketball and

"commit you life to that pursuit?"

- Well, now I have a new career high in high school.

I didn't know I had 40.

- Do you know what your career high in high school is?

Of course you do.

- Honestly, I really don't. - You're that good?

Fuck. (group laughter)

If my career high was like 17,

I'd be like, seven. I would know everything.

I'd be like, yeah, this kid, I crossed him over.

- I have to give a shout out to Christ School.

I love my high school.

It was a all-boys boarding school in North Carolina.

But we had such a good group of guys.

Our first five all went and played in college.

So it was such a fun team to be on.

Our goal every year is like, can we go undefeated.

We never got it, but--

- You weren't one of those guys

that came up in high school where

you were the guy dropping 64?

- Yeah.

That's funny you asked that.

But I didn't have 40 in a game, but anyway.

For me, it was a passion early on.

In Indiana, everybody plays basketball.

- Sure, it's religion. - Yeah, it is, it really is.

Like Texas and football. - Are you a Colts fan?

- I am, yeah.

Not a Pacers fan, but Colts fan.

But growing up--

- Oh, why not a Pacers fan?

- You know what, when I first started watching the NBA,

it was always Utah and Chicago in the finals,

so I love Chicago.

I watched Jordan all the time.

- So you're a bandwagon Bulls fan?

- Yeah.

I was northwest Indiana, though, so I was close to Chicago.

- That's how you decided to justify that?

- And they were winning.

- I know what they were doing.

Alright, so was it from birth, you were all in?

- No, I mean, when I was young

and just playing at recess on the playground

with my brothers--

- Were you always ridiculously tall?

- No, I wasn't always tall.

And I think that's, in the NBA,

not the NBA but in basketball,

you get the guys who are tall,

so they're like, "Well, I'll play basketball.

"I'll put this to use."

But it was always a passion of mine from when I was little.

It's not something that I decided to do

because I ended up being tall.

- So when did you go all-in?

- All-in?

Honestly, to me the first, I would say,

business move concerning basketball

was when I decided to leave my home

and go to a boarding school.

Because up until then, I loved it.

I would just go and play for the fun of it.

- And when was that?

- I did that my sophomore year high school.

- You have a big freshman year?

- I didn't have a big freshman year.

I played varsity in JV at my hometown high school.

- Did you grow in that summer like a machine?

- No, I was like 6'7", 6'8" in my freshman year.

(Gary laughs)

- I love that he's like, it's your own reality, right?

He just hangs out with seven footers all day, I get it.

- Yeah, but to me I was going all-in

because I didn't, basketball was for fun.

And that was the first sacrifice made toward the career.

- [Gary] Let's move on.

- [Andy] Ottawahoops asks,

"how can student athletes use social media

"to monetize their brand?"

- I'll jump in on this one.

I think the NCAA is

ridiculously difficult to navigate.

And I have real venom towards it.

And I don't know every detail.

I have real venom towards it

because I also grew up in the wine business,

where the laws are ridiculous and not practical,

and are archaic,

and then it gets even worse when you really look

under the underbelly of why the rules sit there.

So I think student athletes have to be careful

because they can lose that eligibility, right?

Like, were you always scared like that?

It was always like a bad cloud, right?

And Coach K was like, "Don't fuck up!"

- Right, now, you don't want to mess up his program.

He's not gonna like that.

But that's the thing.

The regulations and the rules,

you shouldn't be trying to monetize yourself

because they're gonna hit you over the head

with the suspension.

- That's why I have an answer.

What your job to do, is to really build,

if you care about that, if you're that entrepreneurial,

and if you're javelin and you're in volleyball,

there's no women's professional volleyball league

that's gonna pay your sister

the kind of money the boys made.

So if she's thinking about the entrepreneurial level,

what you do while you got that attention,

or, if you're the 11th guy at Indiana State

and you don't think you're going to the NBA,

what I think when you have that attention is,

you build a fan base.

You don't monetize it, you build the platform.

The way to do that,

whether you're a superstar player

or the 11th guy on Indiana State, is to engage.

Now, if you're a superstar player,

and you're going to Duke,

you're probably worried about your class,

you're worried about the program,

so you probably have less time.

If you're 11th guy at Indiana State,

you probably have more time.

And so you've gotta just pull levers.

But it's about engagement.

Again, I'm hot on this because it's a Larry Bird reference,

I didn't want to use Indiana.

Like it was, I thought it was funny.

So if you're Indiana State, 11th guy,

every single person that references

your game on Twitter is something you can engage with.

Maybe you didn't play,

but it would be really funny if Tyler was like,

"You guys sucked tonight."

And you jump in and like, "Yo, bro."

They'd be pumped because they actually watched that game.

That context building, now all of sudden

you leave school with 80,000 followers

where you would have had maybe 1500

if you didn't give a crap.

And now all of a sudden you are tweeting out,

looking for opportunities this summer.

That's where you're at your height

because you just went through the program,

and six or seven leads come in,

and away you go.

That's really the only way within the rules of the NCAA.

Agreed, move on.

- [Andy]Rodney.

- Rodney, Rodney Pete?

- His handle's DJ Drive.

- Do you know who Rodney Pete is?

Just yes or no.

Do you know who Rodney Pete is?

- [Man] No. - Rodney Pete?

- [DRock] No.

- Rodney Pete, Rodney Pete, Rodney Pete, Rodney Pete?

Sorry, Rodney.

USC quarterback, went to the Lions,

had a nice career.

These youngsters don't know, Rodney.

- Maybe you should know the Lions, come on Trick.

- [Trick] My family's from Michigan.

- You're a big disappointment, man.

- [Trick] I've been through all that.

(Gary laughs)

- Let's move on.

- [Andy] Rodney asks, "What did

"the NBA teach you about basketball that you can apply

"to marketing or branding on social media?"

- So, the first thing they do

is they sit you down and show you

what you can get fined for. (Gary laughs)

But surprisingly, a lot of the stuff,

because I was watching what guys got in trouble for,

all that stuff created such buzz

and got them all (laughs)--

- You're like the arbitrage was worth it, yeah.

- Too much shocked and awe, but anyway.

To me, the best advice that they gave us was be yourself.

Don't make every post about a product pitch.

Right away, as soon as you come out of the league,

or as soon as you finish university,

then you can accept money for,

Then you can start-- - Sneakers.

- Monetizing, right.

Right away you're gonna have people,

"Hey, tweet this. Pitch my product.

"Whatever, I'll pay you."

- Sports cards.

- It's good and well,

but you don't want your social media

to be flooded with that.

You just want to be genuine, be who you are.

I think it's also good to share,

don't just reply to tweets and whatever after wins.

Be the same person, wins and losses.

Don't go into a whole, depending on the situation.

- Be careful who you're responding to and how.

- Be genuine, be authentic, yeah,

always respond to real people.

I think there are a lot of people

hiding behind different accounts out there,

stuff like that.

- Yeah, Dunk. (laughs)

Kidding, I'm kidding.

Talk to me about the biggest thing you learned

in your first season of the NBA.

Nothing to do with marketing, just macro learning.

You know, this has probably been on your mind

as a little kid, then definitely got more serious

after your freshman year of high school.

Here it is, this is it. You're in the league.

What's the biggest thing you learned in year one?

Kevin obviously sat down and gave you some good advice.

You had some good bets on that team

that you stumbled into.

- Great bets, yeah.

- Like macro.

- To me, the biggest thing I took away is,

there's so much,

I came from a college where there was stability.

Coach K was my coach every year,

I had, for the most part, similar teammates every year.

The NBA and, you know, I talked

to my friends with other jobs,

there's so much turnover,

there's so much unpredictability.

Like, I went into practice one morning

and they said, "Hey, GM wants to talk to you.

"Hey, you're going to Denver."

Okay, cool.

You can't control your situation.

- I'm gonna do that to DRock tomorrow.

I'll be like, you know what?

You've been traded to the Chattanooga office.

But that's crazy, right?

You have to pick up your whole life.

There's a lot of great things

that comes along with professional sports,

and I'm sure the veterans tell you,

once your family kicks in. - Right.

- Your daughter loves her school in Denver,

and now you're in Sacramento.

- Yeah, so I think the best piece of advice

that I got from those guys,

and I watched it happen on that first team,

is no matter what's happening around the game,

have the same work habits,

have the same approach to practice, to the games,

to shoot around, to film session.

Have an approach that you believe in,

that you can stick to-- - Everywhere.

- That's not gonna change regardless of--

- And have you done that? - Yeah, I have.

I mean, I'm only four years in.

- But you're on three teams in four years.

- Three teams in four years.

Four different head coaches.

I feel like I have found a routine

in something that I believe in

that I can continue to grow and get better,

regardless of the situation.

- Was it easier to walk into the Denver locker room

after experience being the new guy

in the Portland locker room?

- Yeah, for sure.

- Was that weird and scary?

- Everything's, I would say, unpredictable.

You don't know what to expect.

I was telling them, well, actually, funny,

when I went into the Denver locker room,

they started playing a rap song.

I did a rap song,

so everywhere I go people make fun of me for it.

Which is fine, I have fun with it.

You know, that lightened the mood.

And also, the NBA, you know players on every team.

- In high school, in college, things of that nature.

- Right.

- Right, cool, Andy K?

- [Andy] Cody Wheat asks,

"What do you think people get wrong

"about professional athletes?

"What do you think is the biggest misconception?"

- I can tell you the thing that bothers me the most

is when people talk about

athletes are stupid or dumb or whatever,

and they go broke because they don't know what they're doin'.

I don't know anybody,

all the players that I know are still in the league,

but people have gone broke

or they've lost what they made out of,

I could see it happenin' more from generosity

- That's exactly right. - Than from bad business moves

It's not-- - I'm so glad you said this,

I apologize for cutting you off.

I am stunned by that variable

as we just recruit our first class.

You're exactly right.

It's not that they're dumb, it's that--

- They wanna do so much for everyone.

- Their inner circle,

and listen, there's a lot of cliche,

lower-middle class, poor,

and it's like they wanna help.

They've been praying

to get through the system to this moment.

Being rich you can get injured.

Coming from tough places you could get into trouble.

I think that's exactly right, my man.

They're tryin' to do good,

so much so, I don't know if you've seen this,

I've already seen this,

some of these kids

have to go through the very difficult decision

of actually cutting off their world

because literally all that's happening is there's,

I saw a kid with his cell phone

and in 30 minutes,

get asked for tens of thousands of dollars

from 11 different people. - Right.

And it happens all the time.

- And it's not,-- - I'm glad you went there man.

- People are so quick to say,

"Bad business move, bad restaurant,

"bad this bad that."

The most generous people I've ever met

have been teammates in the NBA, without a doubt.

- Now, there's also Antoine Walker,

who's out of his mind.

- Yeah. (group laughter)

- And by the way, on that note,

I'm making that joke 'cause I wanna give him a compliment.

What he's doing right now

for kids that are coming out of the league,

it takes a lot of humility.

Listen, I'm sure there's economics with it,

I don't know him but,

I'm sure he's getting paid

and it doesn't hurt to get the money,

but he's goin' in there and sayin'

"Look at me.

"Look what happens."

Man made hundreds of millions of dollars.

Oof. Andy K?

Andy felt that one.

- [Andy] Sam asks,

"How are you able to stay positive

"when working towards your goals and ambitions

"without seeing improvement on a regular basis?"

- To me that's one of the hardest things.

I think whether you do-

- What part of your game was toughest for you,

if you said at a macro,

the thing that was hardest for you to develop in your game,

that you can rewind to now,

we're goin' very macro basketball now,

what would that be?

- Last summer

I wanted to change the way in which I shot the ball,

my form and-- - Period?

- Period, yeah. - Well that's a little crazy.

- Yeah, well it's crazy. - It's hardcore.

- I always felt like this:

Tiger Woods broke down a swing that had won Masters,

and then he re-worked it.

I wasn't breakin' down a shot that works.

(laughing)

I was breakin' down a shot that didn't work.

- I love it.

- I wanted to change my form,-- - And?

- There were a lot of times I didn't see progress,

I got with the coach and we were in the gym every day,

and it was frustrating, stuff felt awkward,

you have muscle memory and habits that are hard to break

if you've been doin' em wrong for so long.

So that was somethin' that I fully committed to last summer--

- And?

- Like the question said,

there were a lot of times where you--

- But where are we right now?

- I feel very, I'm still,-- - In it.

- I'm still in it, I'm still on that journey,

I'm very happy with where my form is.

I hit more jump shots this year

than I have any year in the league,

and now I feel like I have a base and a form that I can--

- Build on top of. - continue to improve.

- Andy, you should,

your jump shot has been struggling lately.

Where are you right now with your game?

- I haven't been playing that much.

- Me neither. Dunk?

How you feelin' about yourself?

You're very athletic.

- [Dunk] I always feel good about my game.

- Yeah but blindly.

How's the actuality of it? - Good.

- You playing well?

Jake?

- [Dunk] I just haven't played in a while.

- [Gary] Jake, how you doin?

- No basketball.

- [Gary] No basketball. (laughter)

- [Dunk] I mean, if we go up against Mase-

- Yeah listen I'll give you a preview,

you're gonna lose.

- [Trick] Mase, you gotta tell 'em about Yoda.

- Oh yeah, nah it's--

- Tell me.

- Like I said, I found a shooting coach, he's--

- Yoda's the name of a dude who's a shooting coach?

- Tell 'em why he's called Yoda, though.

- Oh, 'cause you have to do all sorts of weird stuff

like close your eyes and shoot backwards

while you elevate and eating Jello?

- No, it's just more he's like a bald little,

you know how you get the gray hair goin' around here.

- [Trick] He has the record for most--

- Yeah, so he didn't have like,

there are shooting coaches in the NBA.

- Of course.

- This guy had no NBA.

- Right, he's an unofficial kind of Yoda.

- [Andy] He's an old, white little Steph Curry.

- But I watched him,

and the guy he made like 1503 free throws in a row,

so I was like,

"Hey, I wanna work with you."

(laughing) - You saw that on YouTube?

Or you were sitting there tying your shoes

and watchin' an old white dude hit 1503 free throws?

Just curious.

- He had the film of it.

On the spot, if you walk into the gym

he'll rip you off 100 in a row, and I was like,

"That's so incredible." - So awesome.

- And we call him Yoda 'cause he's little and bald and wise.

- I love it. - Good dude.

- Mase, I'm glad you stopped by man.

- Thanks for havin' me.

- You get to ask the question of the day.

You get to ask any question you want,

macro, micro, basketball, life, entrepreneurship, interests,

anything you want, you'll get thousands of answers,

there might be some good insight.

Fire away.

- Anything. - Anything.

- Man.

What's the best thing to do in New York over the summer

that people don't know about?

And don't tell me Hamilton,

'cause you can't get tickets to that.

- Why can't you get tickets?

They pay well in the NBA.

- They do, but--

- So buy some fuckin' tickets, Mason.

- Alright, I'll buy some tickets.

- Okay, good.

- What's the thing to do in New York in the summer

that people don't know about that you just have to do,

how 'bout that?

- Love it. My man, thanks for stoppin' by.

You keep asking questions,

we'll keep answering them.

ENERGY UPDATE For Those Masters Who Are Ready Our JIgsaw Puzzle Has Come Together! - Duration: 8:24.

ENERGY UPDATE - For Those Masters Who Are Ready - Our JIgsaw Puzzle Has Come Together!

by Anastacia,

A Quick SHIFT of energy came through not long ago (2.40pm AEST April 28TH) � so much so

that within 10minutes I was packed and left to go away over night as I am called to do

so (or being given the �tap� on the shoulder as I call it) by the Divine when I am receiving

something new for humanity � that being away from ALL is very necessary.

As I sit here I am reflecting that over the years it was a two months heads up (tap)�then

one month..then weeks, then days..and this time is was a �tap� of: you need to go

and go right NOW lol.

How blessed am I that my family I live with know and support me in who I am and how I

live and I am able to do this.

I am guided to share where we are at as I still have my notes from the next post that

was �on its way� about what I saw yesterday as it happened in the astrals and multi-dimensions

of:

Our jigsaw pieces finally, finally coming together as I have been seeing and saying

about our jigsaw pieces for so long now.

Actually here are my notes that I wrote DURING BEING IN THIS ENERGY AS IT CAME THROUGH as

I felt and experienced this come through for humanity (and I was not the only one).

Usually I would then form a post around this yet with the �tap� from Spirit to go again,

I will share these here now instead.

And if a further post follows, it does.

There are those that these notes are �enough� for them ;-).

When I write while seeing and receiving in �that moment�, I say read it �like a

script of a movie� and visualise as you read as those that have, have had healings

for themselves by doing so :-).

This is bringing through 6D Energy in Soul and Spirit linked of the Divine as you read

and do this.

Many are now needing this vibration and I am �happy� to share in being in 6D Embodiment

� as you are so worth it!

Enjoy:

The jigsaw pieces are coming together!�for so long I have seen jigsaw pieces filling

the size of the whole sky looking out

They are coming together and are now forming a shape of a human body!

It�s in shadow?

now as the pieces are being put together�.they are in the shape of a human??

As they �click� (that word was very specific) together the shadow human body form is reactivating??

And now shifting to glowing??

I can now see a huge �Golden Egg!� � of abundance was the message!

How exciting is this!

This is in process right now

As the pieces come together I can now see an old template from underneath is shattering!

This is on a Universal Level!!

I have not seen or felt this before�I wish I could show you what I am seeing�the �ring�

has expanded outwards to include our whole universe!!

This is just sensational to see!

*NEW* Universal Master Healings may be coming from this!

We are creating such an abundance that has not been created before on such a global scale

expanding out to a universal level � I can feel my energy has expanded out as well!

We have to link spirit to soul to get this!!

That is everything!!

That was what came at that time.

Here I am sharing more notes of info that has come to light since then, that again would

usually have been in a post as well:

A deep shadow part of ourselves that we were not even aware of is being released � the

overall conglomeration of the �shadow� of the human puzzle pieces now forming together

for a new �glowing� human and spirit.

After I received all of that in the human and spirit, it came to �light� in a healing

during that experience, that there are souls whose heart or solar plexus has shattered

energetically.

This has shattered, in different ways for each person.

I am yet to see if it is other chakras with others.

Let me share more � due to this, old faint echos of the past have come up and out to

be released�and to navigate through this we need to stay true to where we are at now�if

we do this, and shift, shift, shift our energy as written in a recent post, then we �move�

through this quite �quickly�.

The doors of the old are now closed in many areas of our lives remember � BB Pt 6

Last night I had a very interesting and unusual dream and as I (and you) do so much in the

astrals in our �sleep� for me to have a dream such as I did is quite rare.

It is about releasing something in/for our new lives a death of fear of the old that

needs to be released.

I am not ready to share the dream and may not as I am still processing it.

That is why what I just shared is brief.

Chakras with souls who are moving into a bigger phase and stepping it up energetically who

are ready to take the next step up and out with and for humanity have had their solar

plexus or heart chakras shatter very recently!

I can feel this!

Am assisting two powerful Master souls in the last 48 hours, as one�s heart chakra

shattered and the other their Solar Plexus!

Both were pushed to beyond the extreme of the old to the point those chakras shattered!

They have both been repaired and healed with ongoing support of balancing.

This was a *new* Universal healing!

What else this means I do not know � yet�.remember this is in linking our Spirit to our Soul

in the human and this is right here and now as it happens.

That is why I have not written books as this is flowing ascension energy as it is coming

in and needs to be �live�.

I just know that this has been so big for those who are here at the �front-line�

of the ground crew.

We have made it though!!

We are here..we are doing this�we are making a difference as we are literally the change!

I will now feel what else is going on and continue on being a vessel of the Divine in

service.

As I live what I share ;-).

Much love to you

and will share more soon.

"Is there a solution to fund Oklahoma roads, bridges?' - Duration: 3:10.

MARKIE: CONTINUING OUR

CONVERSATION WITH BOBBY STEM,

HOW THESE FUNDING CUTS TO OUR

TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM WILL

AFFECT OUR SYSTEM.

MIKE WROTE IN, WON'T THIS MEAN

MORE EXPENSIVE CONSTRUCTION

PROJECTS IN THE FUTURE IF YOU

QUIT WORK NOW?

>> ABSOLUTELY.

ANYTHING IN THE FUTURE WILL BE

MORE EXPENSIVE THAN NOW,

ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE TO

RE-MOBILIZE.

PART OF WHAT A CONTRACTOR IS

PAID FOR IS THE MOBILIZATION

COST.

MARKIE: WHAT DOES THAT PRICE TAG

LOOK LIKE?

>> I DON'T KNOW, IT DEPENDS ON

THE SIZE OF THE PROJECT.

BUT IF YOU HAVE TO RE-MOBILIZED,

A DELAY IS A WASTE OF MONEY, NO

DOUBT.

MARKIE: SECOND QUESTION IS FROM

JOYCE TAYLOR.

IF YOU STOP FIXING THE ROADS,

WHO'S GOING TO FIX MY CAR?

SHE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE I HAVE

HEARD THAT QUESTION FROM.

A LOT OF PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW,

HOW ARE WE GOING TO DRIVE OVER

THESE BRIDGES AND ROADS?

>> NOT ONLY THAT BUT THEY WILL

CONTINUE TO DETERIORATE.

MANY OF THESE ROADS WERE BUILT

50 YEARS AGO.

IF WE DON'T MAINTAIN THEM, THEY

WILL CONTINUE TO CRUMBLE.

YOU WILL PAY FOR IT ONE WAY OR

THE OTHER, BY TAXES, OR BY GOING

TO YOUR AUTO MECHANIC.

MARKIE THIS IS THE LAST

QUESTION FROM MARK.

HE SAYS WE DEPEND ON OUR ROADS,

BRIDGES, INFRASTRUCTURE FOR ALL

OUR TRANSPORTATION NEEDS.

IS THERE ANY SOLUTION TO THE

FUNDING THAT IS BEING DISCUSSED?

>> I THINK THERE IS, WE HAVE TO

PRIORITIZE.

ODOT HAS DOWNSIZED 40% IN THE

LAST SEVERAL DECADES, SO THEY

ARE DOING MORE WITH LESS.

WE ARE NOT EVEN 5% OF THE

BUDGET.

WE HAVE A $16 BILLION BUDGET, WE

RECEIVE SEVERAL HUNDRED MILLION

DOLLARS OUT OF THAT.

I THINK OUR STATE LAWMAKERS HAVE

TO ARE YOUR TIES, DECIDE WHERE

THERE IS WASTE.

BOTTOM LINE IS THEY HAVE TO FUND

IT.

MARKIE: YOU ARE WITH THE

CONTRACTORS ASSOCIATION FOR 10

YEARS.

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THIS THIS BAD

?

>> I HAVEN'T.

TODAY IS A CRITICAL DAY.

THE COMMISSION SAYS WE ARE NOT

GOING TO BEGIN JOBS AND WE MAY

STOP SOME BIG ONES RIGHT NOW,

THEY CALL IT SUSPENSION.

I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE

THAT.

MARKIE: MEETING AT 11:00 TODAY,

WHAT CAN PEOPLE EXPECT?

>> WHILE YOU AND I SAT HERE,

SOMEBODY IN THE LEGISLATURE WAS

COMING UP WITH AN AGREEMENT OR

IDEA THAT MAYBE WE COULD KEEP

FUNDING THE ROADS AND BRIDGES.

WHAT I EXPECT TO HEAR IS THAT

DID NOT HAPPEN AND WE WILL HAVE

TO MAKE SOME DRASTIC CUTS.

WE HAVE FOUR MORE WEEKS.

THEY CAN DO SOME THINGS TO PUT

US BACK ON TRACK.

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY WILL DO

YET.

MARKIE: WE WILL BE AT THAT

MEETING.

Virtual Collector #13 - Faxanadu - Reviewed by guest Soybomb - Duration: 3:18.

Welcome to Virtual Collector. Today we have a guest.

My very good friend Soybomb will be spotlighting a game from a virtual console

Faxanadu was released on the NES in North America in November of 1989.

The game is actually a side-story of the long-running Xanadu series by Falcom, one popularized mostly

in Japan on PCs.

Development for an NES spin-off was licensed to Hudson Soft, and thus, Faxanadu (short

for Famicom Xanadu) was born.

You play the role of an nameless wanderer who stumbles into the World Tree, where the

Elves and Dwarves are at each other's throats, as its water supply has suddenly stopped.

Our hero must climb through the various branches of this gigantic tree, visiting the towns

within and learning about what has really happened in the process.

Faxanadu is, at heart, an action game, but it does take on some RPG elements.

The more you fight, the more you gain experience.

Reaching milestones in experience levels can be beneficial, provided you talk to a guru

and earn yourself a new title.

Not only does it make you feel all warm and gooey inside to be called a "Paladin"

in time, but upon regeneration after death, you'll start out with a specific amount

of gold already in your pocket.

Hey, don't knock free money!

Oh, but that guru has another trick up his sleeve: he's the source of all passwords,

but he literally spews them out, humorously speaking in strange tongues that we can't

really comprehend.

Quick!

Get the holy water!

As for the gameplay itself, it may take a little time to get used to the hero's momentum-based

running and jumping, but once you do, the side-scrolling sword-fighting magic-casting

meat-munching action will feel like second nature.

While wandering about, you can enter towns and chat with the townsfolk or purchase equippable

weapons, armor, items, and magical tools.

Be prepared to visit key shops frequently -- sooooo many doors require keys, and they

all seem to re-lock themselves after each use.

And be even more prepared to buy items one at a time after being asked "What would

you like?" about a thousand times.

Man, these automated shopkeepers are really primitive.

When not staying in town, you can easily get lost in the vastness of the World Tree.

Consider this as a Metroid-style game, only with 86% fewer aliens but all the calories!

Being set in a gigantic tree, Faxanadu takes on a very earthy presentation, focusing its

palette on greens and browns, giving it a flavour different than most of the more colourful,

eye-popping adventures on the console.

Combined with a rich Eastern-influenced soundtrack, you have an exceptional experience separate

from most on the NES and, assuredly, worth checking out.

You can pick this one up on the Wii Virtual Console for the mere cost of a box meal at

Taco Bell.

And it's healthier for you, too!

Conor Mcgregor vs Floyd Mayweather Promo - "Gods Recognize Gods" - Duration: 3:09.

I'm looking around, I don't know what anyone else has for me right now.

I might have to jump up and fucking drag Floyd Mayweather out of bed and see what the fuck

he's at again.

When it's all said and done, Conor Mcgregor has to answer to somebody.

He has a boss.

Floyd Mayweather don't have a boss.

We don't even know if he can go ten rounds and you want him to get in there with the

best to ever live.

And you think he has a chance to land a punch?

His hands are like peanut brittle, he has to wrap them a million times so that he doesn't

break his hands.

Floyd better hope he don't run in to Conor.

I get 7 million?

That's a pay cut to me, I don't' take pay cuts.

I thought boxing was where the money was at?

If you made five million, I'm willing to give you ten million.

If you made ten million, I'm willing to give you twenty million.

I promise you Floyd, you will never try to walk up and slap Conor Mcgregor.

I have the size, I have to reach, I have the height.

I have the youth

He needs me.

I don't need him.

I've been world champion since the 90's.

Everybody's writing me off, everyone has this little... you know?

But, there going to be in shocked make no mistake about it.

Trust me, this whole boxing world don't know what their going to see when I roll in here.

I'm unpredictable.

Nobody knows what their in for.

I've been dominating throughout my whole career. When he was a little kid.

Not just not fighter has done it, but no athlete.

I'm ready, I'm looking forward to it.

I'm excited and I'm prepared.

I know every single shot he's been hit with.

I know every single shot he's been hurt

I know everything.

Then sign the contract.

Don't talk the shit, if you really want to fight sign the fucking contract.

And we can make it happen.

How Oklahoma's budget hole will impact roads, bridges - Duration: 5:31.

WE HAVE TWO THINGS GOING ON,

THE ECONOMIC IMPACT.

CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES WILL LAY

PEOPLE OFF.

BUT HERE'S WHAT WE'RE REALLY

LOOKING AT

IMAGINE THE CONGESTION, IMAGINE

THE ACCIDENTS.

MARKIE: BUDGET CUTS AFFECTING

MANY OF US HERE IN OKLAHOMA BUT

NOW IT MAY HAVE BIGGER IMPAC

ON OUR ROADS AND BRIDGES.

THIS MORNING, THE EXECUTIVE

DIRECTOR OF THE ASSOCIATION OF

OKLAHOMA GENERAL CONTRACTORS,

BOBBY STEM, JOINS US TO TALK

ABOUT THE AFFECTS.

NOT ONLY ON YOUR DAILY DRIVE,

BUT TO CONSTRUCTION TEAMS ACROSS

THE STAT

GOOD MORNING, THANKS FOR BEING

WITH US TODAY.

WE SPOKE WITH YOU LAST WEEK ON

FRIDAY.

YOU CALLED THIS A QUOTE CRISIS

IN PRETTY EPIC PROPORTIONS."

EXPLAIN THIS CRISIS.

I HAVE BEEN REPRESENTING ROAD

AND BRIDGE BUILDER AND NEVER

HAVE I SEEN ANYTHING WHERE WE

MAY ACTUALLY CANCELED OR DELAYED

JOBS.

IMAGINE PULLING WORKERS OFF OF

THE I-235 OR I-44 JOB.

NEVER HEARD ANYTHING LIKE THAT

BEFORE BUT THAT IS POSSIBLE.

MARKIE: SO WHEN FUNDING IS CUT,

YOU JUST UP THE PROJECTS IN THE

MIDDLE OF IT?

>> YOU HAVE TO.

THAT JOB IS DONE BY ALAN

CONTRACTING.

DO YOU TELL THEM KEEP PAYING

YOUR PEOPLE, BIOMATERIALS?

YOU HAVE TO PULL THEM OFF THE

JOB AND THEN YOU HAVE ALL OF

THIS DURING THAT WILL RUN OFF

FROM THE ROADS.

THE COST IS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS.

MARKIE YOU CANNOT DESCRIBE WHAT

THESE AREAS, THESE INTERCHANGES

THAT WE ARE WORKING ON NOW, I

WOULD IMAGINE THERE WILL BE

CONES EVERYWHERE BUT NOBODY

AROUND.

>> WORK ZONES ARE DANGEROUS

PLACES.

WHEN YOU KEEP THAT WORK ZONE

OPEN LONGER THAN IT SHOULD BE,

YOU ARE MAKING SOMETHING MORE

DANGEROUS THAN IT SHOULD BE.

WE ARE TALKING ABOUT CONGESTION

AND A DANGEROU ENVIRONMENT FOR

MONTHS, IT'S NOT A FULL YEAR, IF

WE DON'T GET THE FUNDING.

MARKIE WHAT AREAS OF THE STATE

ARE YOU EXPECTING TO BE THE MOST

CONGESTED?

>> ANY OF THE BIG PROJECTS THAT

YOU SEE RIGHT NOW, YOU COULD SEE

THOSE POSSIBLY COMING TO A HALT.

OTHER THAN THAT, YOUR SMALLER

PROJECTS, SMALLE BUT STILL

LARGE, YOU MAY SEE THOSE PULLED

BACK.

YOU MAY SEE AN AREA THAT NEEDS

CONSTRUCTI NOW BUT WILL NOT

GET IT FOR A WHILE.

MARKIE: TIMELINE -- THIS COULD

BE A YEAR?

IF THEY DON'T FUND US AND

THEY SEE AND TO JOB SIT, NEXT

YEAR, MAYBE THEY MAY FUND US.

IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS, ONCE THE

BALL STARTS ROLLING, THIS I

SOMETHING THAT THE LEGISLATOR

WILL COME TO THEIR SENSES AND

FUND OUR ROADS AND BRIDGES.

MARKIE: WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT

THIS CRISIS, YOU THINK IT IS A

HASSLE FOR DRIVERS.

BUT THE OTHER PART OF THE STORY

THAT PEOPLE DON'T THINK ABOUT IS

, IT IS HEARTBREAKING FOR THOSE

CONSTRUCTION CREWS.

WHAT HAPPENS TO THOSE MEN AND

WOMEN ON THESE JOBS AND ALL OF A

SUDDEN THE JOB DONE A LOT ARE

HAPPENING?

>> THEY GET LAID OFF.

I HAD A CONTRACTOR CALL ME AND

SAY I HAVE WON $11 MILLION JOB

IN THE CLINTON AREA.

THAT IS THE ONE JOB THAT WE HAVE

IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS.

IF THAT DOES GET PUSHED OFF,

THOSE 50 FOLKS WILL BE LAID OFF.

MARKIE: IT IS REALLY SAD TO

HEAR.

THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO PUT IT.

IT IS A TIGHT BUDGET YEAR,

EVERYONE IS FEELING IT, BUT THIS

IS THE MOST COMMONLY USED

FUNCTION OF GOVERNMENT, AND THEY

CANNOT SEEM TO FIND IT.

MARKIE I KNOW ODOT IS HOLDING A

MEETING AT 11:00, THEY HAVE BEEN

CRUNCHING THE NUMBERS.

WHAT ARE YOU EXPECTING TO HEAR,

IS THAT ANY SILVER LINING TO

COME OUT OF THIS MEETING?

>> I AM LOOKING FOR THE SILVER

LINING.

WHAT THEY WILL BASICALLY TELL

THE COMMISSION AND THE PUBLIC,

BASED ON WHAT WE SAW PASSED IN

THE HOUSE AND SENATE LAS WEEK,

HERE ARE THE RAMIFICATIONS.

BASED THAT, JOBS WILL BE SHUT

DOWN.

THERE MAY BE SOME OPTIONS ON THE

TABLE, BUT RIGHT NOW, WE WILL

NEED TO SEE IF THEY ARE IN PLAY.

MARKIE LESS THAN IN THE GOAL OF

EVERY TAX DOLLAR WE PAY GOES TO

INFRASTRUCTURE.

ARE YOU EXPECTING THAT TO BE

SLASHED, TOO?

>> I DON'T KNOW YET.

IF YOU WERE TO FULLY FUND

TRANSPORTATION, THAT NUMBER

WOULD BE ABOUT 5% OF THE STATE

BUDGET.

THEY ARE LOOKING TO LOWER THAT,

SO WE ARE TALKING ABOU MAYBE

3.5%, 4%.

MARKIE WITH THE OKLAHOMA

ASSOCIATION OF GENERAL

CONTRACTORS, HOW DOES THIS

AFFECT YOU?

THE FIRST THING I THINK OF IS

THE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF JOBS

THAT WE WILL HAVE TO LAY OFF.

IT DOESN'T JUST TALK ABOUT

CONSTRUCTION WORKERS.

YOU ARE NOT BUYING STEEL, SOD,

YOU ARE NOT FIXING DANGEROUS

ROADS.
