[Claire V.O] - I once thought it was
impossible to feel alone.
I mean, how could I?
I'm surrounded by people.
(group chatting)
I have the best group of friends
that anyone could ever ask for.
They are loyal and encouraging.
And my boyfriend, Jacob, is the sweetest guy I've ever met.
- [Jasper] What's been happening, bro? - Not much.
What are you guys talking about?
- [Claire V.O] My older sister, Brooklyn,
is inspiring and supportive.
My mum and dad are still together
and in love, which I admire.
And my younger sister, Emma, who despite her
typical sarcastic teenager attitude,
I cherish more than anything.
(group laughing)
I have the perfect life.
Or at least that's what other people see.
Or maybe it's just what I want them to see.
'Cause it's easier that way.
Easier than telling the truth,
and being judged and ridiculed,
and made to feel isolated and secluded.
Made to feel like I'm not normal, whatever that is.
(sombre music)
But the truth is,
I'm at a point in my life,
Where I'm tired of pretending.
I'm tired of feeling alone.
I'm tired of... living.
And I know what some of you are thinking.
She's just looking for attention.
What gives her the right to feel depressed?
But see, that's the funny thing about depression.
It doesn't give a fuck what you think.
(keyboard clicking)
Dad?
Dad? - Hmm?
- [Claire] Can I talk to you for a sec?
- Of course you can, baby.
Just give me like an hour, and then I'm all yours.
(keyboard clicking)
- It's kind of important.
- Well, so is this, Claire.
This actually puts a roof over
your head and food on the table.
Not just some argument on Facebook about some boy.
- It's not about some boy. - Claire, what did I just say?
(phone buzzing)
Hello, Patrick speaking.
Yeah, I'm aware there's a deadline, okay?
I'm doing the best that I can.
Claire, I'm sorry, okay?
We'll talk soon, I promise.
No, I'm here.
I'm sending it through as we speak.
(knife chopping)
- Mum?
Mum? - What?
- [Claire] Can I talk to you for sec?
- You can see that I'm busy, honey, so.
- It's kind of important.
- And cooking dinner for the whole
family after a long day isn't?
- I didn't mean it like that.
- [Eva] Not now, okay, just...
- [Claire] Can I help?
- You can help by getting out of the kitchen.
Look, honey, I'm sorry.
I've just had a really long day.
I'm stressed.
We'll talk later, okay?
- Okay.
- Go. - Em?
Emma? - What?
- Excuse me?
- What do you want?
You just made me lose.
- (sighing) It's just a game.
Why are you so angry all the time?
- Why are you such an idiot all the time?
- You know that if there's something that's
making you angry, you can always talk to me.
- No, I can't. - Why not?
- Because your an idiot, and I don't talk to idiots.
(knocking) - Brooke?
Brooklyn?
- What's up? - Can I talk to you for a sec?
- [Brooklyn] Of course, what are sisters for?
- Lately I've been feeling-- (phone ringing)
- Hold that thought.
Hey Cass.
Oh my god, tell me all about it.
No, I'm serious, I want to hear everything.
We'll talk later, okay?
- It's kind of important.
- Okay, well I'm on the phone right now.
So, it'll have to wait.
Stop being so selfish.
No, I'm serious.
No, No, tell me.
(sombre music)
- [Claire V.O] I don't want you to blame
anyone though, it's no one's fault.
Sometimes we just get so caught up in everything around us
we forget about who's right there in front of us.
♫ Too many liars
♫ Too many fires
♫ Someone to always start it
♫ Too many places
♫ Too many faces
♫ Used to take up spaces
♫ How many criers
- [Eva] Claire, honey, dinner's ready.
♫ Haven't I shaken
♫ Haven't you taken
♫ All the love I gave you, wasted
- No, I'm not kidding.
No, that is so true.
No, really.
- [Eva] How did you go with that deadline?
- Yeah, I got it in.
- They still gonna pay you?
- [Patrick] I'll have to wait and see.
As long as we're together, right?
- [Brooklyn] That's so true.
Oh my god.
(sombre music)
- [Claire Voiceover] Some of you will say this
is just a cry for help, but you're wrong.
You only cry for help if you
believe there is help to cry for.
- Not on your phone at the dinner table.
- [Brooklyn] Mum's being a phone Nazi again.
I've gotta go.
- [Patrick] Not at the table, you've been told.
- [Eva] Well, if I'm a Nazi, that makes your father Hitler.
- [Emma] I can agree with that. - Can you?
(repeated gasping)
(heavy breathing)
- Could you please go and get your sister?
- [Emma] She's right there.
- [Patrick] Your other sister, smarty pants.
- I don't know where she is.
She's probably still being an idiot somewhere.
- Don't call her that, she's not an idiot.
(loudly crying)
(gagging)
(crying)
- Claire!
- [Eva] Don't scream, I could have done that.
- Why didn't you then?
- Please just go and get your sister.
Okay, I'll get her.
(repeated coughing)
- You're so lazy.
- You're so ugly.
- You're so adopted.
- Dad.
- Don't tell her that.
She's not adopted.
- (knocking) Claire?
Claire?
Oh my, Claire, Claire, Claire!
Oh my god, Claire!
Oh baby, no, no, no, no.
Oh my god, oh my god, wake up, Claire!
Wake her up, wake her up! - Claire!
- Wake her up, please.
My girl, no (crying)!
No, no!
- [Brooklyn] Call an ambulance!
- Get her up! - Baby, wake up, wake up.
(group crying)
- [Brooklyn] Call an ambulance.
- Wake her up, wake her up!
Go baby, go baby, no, no!
Wake her up would you, please.
No, no (crying)!
- Claire, baby, please?
- No, no, no!
Get her up, wake her up!
Wake up, wake up!
No, my baby, no, no!
- Claire!
She's okay, Claire, please baby.
Baby, open your eyes.
- No, don't stop, wake her up.
No, no, no!
No, no, wake up, wake up!
No (crying) no!
My baby.
Wake her up, please, wake her up.
No, no!
(serene music)
- [Claire V.O] Pain is only temporary.
But the decisions we make are final.
(crying)
There are no second chances or do-overs.
And it's our family and friends
that have to live with those decisions.
A decision that I wish I could take back.
- Come on, that's really enough.
- I'm fine.
- [Claire V.O] A decision I wish, now, I didn't make.
- I'm fine.
- [Claire V.O] And although it may be too late for me,
it's not too late for you.
Because despite everything that has happened,
this isn't a sad story.
I don't want you to cry for me or feel bad.
I don't even want you to think
what you could have done to save me.
Because this story isn't about me, it's about you.
All of you.
And even if you don't see it straight away,
someone is always watching, listening, and caring.
So don't make the same mistake I did.
Don't ever give up.
And when you're at your lowest
and you think you can't go on anymore,
just remember, you're never alone.
It's not just you,
'cause I'm here too.
♫ I'm never alone in my mind
♫ 'Cause you're always here right by my side
♫ And I know it's true
♫ That I never loved anyone quite like you
♫ And I know it's true
♫ Wherever you go, I'm here, too
♫ Wherever you go, I'm here, too
♫ Wherever you go, I'm here, too

a suspenseful story that draws on Papantonios extensive legal career.
We welcome Mike Papantonio to this edition of Conversations.
Thank you for joining us.
Good to be here Jeff.
Tell me about the book.
For years I've handled cases that have had a lot of political overlays to them.
Whether it is a case against a pharmaceutical company, a case against Wall Street, whatever
it may be they've always had those kind of political intrigued sides to them.
I had enough people say you know you ought to write that sometimes and rather than writing
a non-fiction I thought it was best to put it into fiction.
My goal really has been Jeff, to somebody can pick up the book and they can read a chapter
and be entertained, but at the same time they come away from just being entertained they
learn something.
That's what these books, there's three of them that are in line here and this is the
first of them, and the whole idea is to kind of tell the back stories about the practice
of law and some of the politics and cultural and social issues that all tie into that.
Hopefully you can read it on the beach, walk away and say it was a good story but I learned
something.
What would the average person be most surprised about the back end of what goes on in the
law field?
I think probably they'd be most shocked at the pharmaceutical aspect of that particular
book.
The pharmaceutical story, what happens when a drug goes on the market, what happens when
a person actually takes a drug that they believe that the FDA had overseen and the FDA had
given approval on.
The stories it's not the type of thing that corporate media typically can tell, they have
advertisers whether it's whatever the pharmaceutical company is, they have advertisers that do
business with that pharmaceutical company.
Those back stories are rarely told, they'll see the headlines where maybe Merck of Pfizer
or one of the big pharmaceutical companies is hit for a big verdict, but they really
don't know why, they don't understand what took place.
Who is it that destroyed documents?
Who is it that tampered with the clinical data?
How did they sell it to the media?
Why did the media ignore it?
How did the FDA ignore it?
How did they make their way through an FDA bureaucracy in such a way that basically they
get everything they want when they want it?
Those aren't the kinds of things that people hear about, but that's one part of the story.
I don't think you'll find a book that explains that, certainly not in a fiction.
Grisham, I've always thought Grisham is very good at telling a story, but at the same time
he's telling the story you walk away and say gee, I didn't know that that's how judges
were appointed.
I didn't know that a judge had that much authority to do X, Y or Z.
I didn't know how you remove a judge from the bench.
Those types of things Grisham would always pack into his novels and that always captured
my interest because although he was an attorney he really didn't try cases, he wasn't a trial
lawyer.
These series of books take on the aspect of what does it really look like at ground zero.
It's one thing to describe a courtroom scene but it's another thing to take a courtroom
scene that actually took place and you go my gosh that can't be real and it is real.
There's courtroom scenes in this particular book and you'll go surely that didn't happen
and they really did happen.
Tell me about the characters in here, the main character Deke right?
Yes Nicholas Deketomis he's an attorney that handles basically big products cases all over
the country.
His goal in every one of the cases is to be able to get to trial and obviously get a result
for the claimant.
Most of the time what he's trying to do is if there's a product out there and it ought
to be off the market his goal is to get it off the market.
He's operating on all four cylinders in the right way, he wants to accomplish the right
thing for the right reason and he does well doing that.
He's a composite character in the sense that I looked around the country and I said I've
worked with really some of the finest trial lawyers in the country and I've borrowed a
little bit here and borrowed a little bit there.
I've put the barnacles on them when they needed barnacles, and so certainly he's not a whitewashed
character.
You don't end it say oh my gosh, this guy's perfect, he's far from it.
As the books continue you learn that each one of the characters in there kind of have
a little darker side than what you might think when you read it initially.
I was going to ask you how much of Mike Papantonio is in Deke?
Well I think it's impossible to write a book like that without drawing on your personal
experience.
I mean the old adage is write what you know about and certainly you know yourself and
you certainly know the topics well.
It's impossible for me to say that there are no part of that that's there.
I obviously used this area heavily.
I think anybody reading it is going to say ... I changed the names, I gave the characters
different names, I changed the areas, gave them different names.
At the end of it, the reading, they're going to know what it's about.
I think every author does that somewhat.
If you take a look at Baldacci or Grisham, any of the thriller writers they always start
off with the thing that they know.
It may be their home town, it may be some experience they had in some aspect of law
and so that's what this is.
There's certainly a little bit of me there but I didn't intend to say Deketomis is my
Papantonio, that's not my intent.
I'm always curious how novelists, I'm always curious about their process, what was your
process of putting this together?
I think anybody that writes fiction will tell you that the most difficult thing, and it
shouldn't be difficult, but the most difficult thing in the narrative, the conversations.
How do you go back in there and you and I are talking right now and how do we capture
what's happening here cleanly, quickly, in a way that actually means something?
What is interesting and unique about that conversation.
The story lines in these books are fairly easy because they really happened, but you
take what really happened and you put the fiction aspect, you add the intrigue to it,
you add the thriller aspect of it, you add the aspect of my gosh I hope this works out
for the character.
You take all of those things but the real trick to me is trying to take that character
and say how would they talk, how would they interact with their children, how would that
character interact with his wife, how would these two lawyers interact?
It sounds like it's fairly easy because all you do is say well people talk this way but
when you're writing a book and space is an issue, brevity's an issue in getting the idea
across quickly is an issue.
Those narratives are very important.
How long did it take you to massage this character into the person you wanted him to be?
I think every author ends up getting really angry with the editor because when I finished
that I would say to the editor, "Well I kind of like this part, why did you take it out?"
These are professionals, they understand because you want them to turn the page.
You don't want to get bogged down on the nuances to where they say ... Michener excelled at
taking a pineapple and he would say well what's the story of the pineapple?
Michener could tell you every aspect of the pineapple, but that wasn't intrigue.
These types of thriller novels, the reason I think I was so upset about what was cut
is those were parts of the stories I really liked but you have to.
At the end of all of it you have to have some trust in good editors and that's what I did
here.
Who's your favorite author?
Well I think the classic author would be Steinbeck.
I remember one time before I went to law school there was a great lawyer by the name of Perry
Nichols, he was an attorney down in Arcadia, Florida, one of the places I lived growing
up.
He had a cattle ranch down there and I was getting ready to move into journalism, I was
going to be a journalist and hopefully do foreign correspondence.
I think everybody at University of Florida in the journalism program wanted to do that
when they were coming through.
Somebody said to me, "You know Mike, you really ought to think about going to law school."
I said, "I really don't have any interest but I'll go talk to this person you want me
to talk to."
Perry Nichols was, at the time, Melvin Bell like quality, I mean he was truly the Clarence
Darrow of his time.
He was a wonderful lawyer.
His home was out of Miami, Florida but he gravitated and ended up kind of settling up
around north Florida.
I went to meet him and kind of in an artful way I said, "Mr. Nichols what do you think
made you such an important lawyer?"
I didn't know that I really wanted to hear the answer but the answer was spectacular.
He was in a wheelchair sitting in front of this wall and the wall was full of books.
On there was Steinbeck, Kafka, Conrad, Hemingway, all of the great novelists, and he said, "Well
to answer your question," he said, "first of all it started with me reading all those
books up there."
What he was trying to say is there's really no new ideas.
For a trial attorney not to have a real big, big background and a lot of interstitial information
about other ideas, other concepts I think is a big mistake and that's what Perry Nichols
was trying to tell me.
My reading coming up were those people, they were Kafka, Conrad, Hemingway, Steinbeck,
on and on that you would say are kind of the classic writers, not classical writers but
well known writers that moved me.
Was he the turning point in your life that made you say I want to be an attorney?
He had a big impact on it Jeff, a big impact.
There were other issues, again I think I was really committed more to journalism.
I remember reading To Kill a Mockingbird and there's no way that a young person comes out
of reading To Kill a Mockingbird to say you know I'd like to do something like that, I'd
like to end my life and career in a way that it has some substantial impact on somebody
or something.
Well you've certainly had a big impact and I know a lot of the cases that you've worked
on have been geared towards environmental issues.
Yes they have been.
What I've always tried to do is I've tried to take on a big environmental case every
few years.
They're just so overwhelming that you can only do so many and the results I've had have
been good there's no question.
You can't get those kinds of results by taking on too many, they have to be the kind of case
where you say my gosh, if I don't solve this the latent aspects of damage to people is
going to be huge.
I'm involved with a project like that up in Ohio right now against DuPont where they poisoned
the drinking water of 70,000 people.
They poisoned it with something called C8 and they knew when they did it, they'd been
doing it for 50 years they've been dumping millions of pounds of this into the Ohio River
and it ended up in people's drinking water.
They knew when they were doing it that the product caused cancer.
In the last two cases I've tried up there have been horrible cancer cases.
That's the type of thing that I walk away and I say well are we going to accomplish
anything by this?
It's not just can we clean up the stream, it is can we save lives?
Can we let people know that this stuff is in the environment for five million years,
this C8, that it's in your human body for 25 years.
This is the kind of stuff that I believe does have an impact, but in reality if you're going
to have a life, when you have a child, when you have a family that's such an important
priority and you have to say well I can't do them all well, I'll pick them carefully.
What is it about these big companies or anyone once they realize that they're doing something
that is causing a great deal of harm, why don't they stop, why does it continue on,
when do the cover ups come on?
There's a quick answer to it.
First of all you're talking to somebody who believes that capitalism is the best system
in the world.
If you look all over the world capitalism works when its regulated, where there's common
goals, let's do well for everybody, let's do well by doing some good.
It used to be 25, 30 years ago a CEO would move through a company and that CEO might
be there for 20 years.
They might begin their career there and end their career in the large company.
Then what ended up happening in MBA school was what we call quick profits big risk and
those are my terms, I don't know they teach those terms in MBA school.
Here's what it is, you're moving through in three years.
You're going to go to a company like DuPont, you're going to be there for three, five at
the max and what you're going to do is you're going to maximize that 10K at the end of every
quarter, you're going to say did I raise that 10K even one-eighth of one penny?
Because if I did I'm going to make more money.
The whole system is built around that, the way that we pay CEOs is built around that
way.
The compensation issue has changed all that.
We don't really have a CEO that says, "You know I've been here for 20 years, I want to
end my career by not passing something on to the next CEO that has the potential to
do horrible damage to people."
That I think is one of the biggest things and then I think probably the next biggest
thing is that you don't have media really asking the tough questions.
You've got somewhat of a corporate media now and corporate media is driven by how many
advertising dollars do they sell.
Because of that they don't go and ask the tough questions and the CEOs know they can
get away with it.
The investigative journalism's not what it used to be.
No, there are no more Ed Morrows.
There are no more Walter Cronkite or Huntley and Brinkley.
We've moved to, again just like the quick profits big risk same thing with corporate
media, exactly the same thing.
I want to come back to media in just a moment because you're involved in that as well, but
before I do so what case are you most proud of?
I would say probably it just happened to be a local case around here, it was a case against
a company used to be called Conoco.
For so many years Conoco and it's predecessor and everybody in charge of the decision making
had really polluted bio tar and some areas around.
There was never a time when anybody really looked to find out how bad it was, to find
out really what was actually going on.
I think I vested my first effort into an environmental case there knowing that I was taking myself
away from other cases such as pharmaceutical cases and security cases, those types of things
that I do.
I was most proud of that because we got a good result and we got something done that
was meaningful, and it meant that people were at least aware that for 40 some years bad
government had allowed this to take its own life.
There was a lot of reasons I was proud of that, I don't know that that is the single
most important but that was an important case to me.
There's been many single cases where I've handled cases for individuals and you just
love these people, you work with them for years, you invest everything you can as far
as your effort with them and they do the same to you.
You feel like family and when you get a good result, the jury comes back and finds for
your client it is a big deal.
It's a big deal because it validates your efforts there.
You've had six to 12 people hearing your story and say yes, you should have been here, what
you're saying here is right and what has happened here just needs to be corrected.
You're known for mass torts and as I understand it you were instrumental in bringing the whole
mass torts line of business so to speak for lack of a better term to your law firm, to
Levin Papantonio Law Firm.
First of all what are mass torts and what makes you so good at it?
Mass torts, people always confuse mass torts with class actions and they're not even close
to the same thing.
A mass tort is simply, it's a description of a case where it may be one pharmaceutical
case, it may be one drug that has been put on the market and the FDA hasn't done their
job, and because of the FDA not doing their job sometimes it's so dysfunctional that they
let these things get through.
It ends up effecting not just two or three people, it ends effecting thousands of people.
I mean I could go on forever about the cases, the best description of a mass tort case probably
would be the YAZ case.
YAZ was a birth control pill and it was put out there in competition with 50 to 60 other
birth control pills, but the problem Jeff was is they couldn't make enough money just
selling a birth control pill.
If it was just a birth control pill it really didn't mean that much because there were so
many competitors, everybody was selling birth control.
What they did is they figured out a way to market it to appeal to young women, to say
if you take this birth control pill you're going to be slimmer, you're not going to have
acne, you're going to be able to fight weight problems if you take this pill.
In fact they never had tested any of that to know that it was actually true.
It was a pill it had a six time higher risk of causing a DVT or a stroke than the other
competitors.
That pill was out on the market for years and there were lawyers that kept saying you
know Mr. Media, ABC, CBS, you ought to go cover this story, this is important, my daughter's
taking this, this is what happened to her, my wife took it, this is what happened.
That's how a mass tort case develops.
I'm typically hired and our firm is hired to handle cases for other lawyers throughout
the country.
You may have a lawyer who is an advertiser, 1-800 drug whatever it is.
They're more of a marketer and I don't mean that in an awful way, I just mean that's what
they focus on.
You've got people that just market, they're right around here in this town and so and
so and so and so.
How many cases have you tried?
We end up going and actually trying cases for those people.
The point is you just have to be able to do it all in mass torts.
You have to understand I have to educate people, but once they're in my office I got to be
able to say I can take your case and I can try it in California if I have to, I can try
it in New York or Chicago, wherever.
Right and it's an expensive, complicated scenario.
Yes absolutely, a typical mass tort will cost a law firm, I mean if they're the ones actually
doing all the work will cost anywhere from $6 to $18 million, somewhere in that area.
Let's switch over to media.
You have a pretty strong media background.
You've been doing it for what, close to two decades now.
Right at two decades yes.
Tell me about Ring of Fire.
Ring of Fire was an idea that really sprung up out of ... Bobby Kennedy and I have been
friends for a very long time and we were actually asked to do a show on something that used
to be called Air America.
It was an attempt by progressives, I mean it was Janeane Garofalo, Chuck D, Al Franken,
Rachel Maddow, Lizz Winstead and so were all in there and we were asked do some programming
for this entity called Air America, so that's where we started.
Then Air America it didn't hold together.
First of all the finances of it didn't hold together, but what came out of it was brilliant
because everybody went their own way and they did their own thing and that was critical.
You have another television project you're working on right?
Yes I do, right now RT International it's an international network.
If you go to RT International, to any country in the world you're going to see RT International.
They're making a move into the United States and they've asked me to do a program called
America's Lawyer where we interview lawyers who have these huge cases from all over the
country.
They tell the back stories, they name names, they say this judge did this, this legislator
did this, this FDA person did this and here was the net result of it.
I'm going to start that in October and it runs out of Washington, DC but we're going
to do it right here in Pensacola.
They've built a studio here and it's going to run right here, and it'll show in every
English speaking country in the world, that was just part of the arrangement.
I'm excited about doing it.
I'm a little bit tired of doing politics, I've started off doing politics all the way
back to Fox News where I was the only progressive or liberal on a panel and it would be me against
three other people and they'd yell at me for about four minutes and I tried not to yell
back but I found I had to just to be heard.
I did that a couple of years and then I did a little bit of CNN, not real regular.
MSNBC ended up doing pretty regularly, and so Ed Schultz who's been a friend for so long
I guess I did his show more often than anything else.
By the way he's on the RT Network along with Larry King, so it's a good lineup on RT Networks.
Larry King, him, Thom Hartmann, it's just a wonderful lineup of people.
I have just a very short period of time left here.
Must have been quite an accomplishment for you to be inducted into the Trial Lawyers
Hall of Fame, that's a pretty big deal huh?
It was a big deal.
There's only I think in the state maybe there's five of us, something like that.
Fred Levin of course, my partner was also in the hall of fame so it's a very big honor,
I can tell you that.
Got about a minute and a half left, what's next for Mike Papantonio, more books?
That's what I enjoy doing now and I think my family likes me doing that.
They'd rather have me at home writing a book than they would traveling around the country
trying a case.
I'm going to probably be trying cases but I'm going to be focusing a little bit on telling
these stories, both through the media as I've done for years and through these books.
Hopefully people will appreciate that there's a lot of truth, there's a lot of truth to
what happens in these books.
The only thing that's not true in that one is the murder scene.
If there's one thing you would like for people to kind of remember you by or when they think
of Mike Papantonio what would you like for them to think about just quick?
I tell young lawyers if you can't stand in a room of 1,000 people where everybody disagrees
with you and still maintain your position if you think you're right then you should
not be a trial lawyer, it just is not suited for you.
You got to be able to handle rejection, handle disagreement.
Great, Mike Papantonio what a pleasure to talk with you, thank you so much.
Well thank you Jeff I appreciate it.
The name of the book Law and Disorder, Mike Papantonio.
It's a legal thriller, it's a novel, first one in a series, worth a read for sure.

Meet Civil — The Startup That Wants to Put Journalism on the Blockchain | Freethink - Duration: 5:00.
- The journalism industry today
is on a dangerous path.
- There's only really a handful
of ways to pay for the news.
Journalism is sometimes referred to
as the first draft of history.
- This is a sacred institution that is facing
an existential threat like never before.
- Papers have been closing and downsizing for years,
and that affects all of us.
- The world is changing.
Technology introduces new challenges, new opportunities.
- We need a radically new business model
or we're going to see journalism be eradicated.
So, we're using blockchain
and cryptoeconomics to pursue that end.
(inspiring music)
- I'm Matthew Iles, I'm the CEO at the Civil Media Company.
Our mission is to create a network committed to the cause
of independent, sustainable journalism around the world.
The funding models of journalism have been eroding
around us for the last 20 years or so.
The internet kind of wrongly taught us
that stuff should be free, and then you monetize
the attention that you've accrued
to third-party advertisers.
- Print advertising, digital advertising or classified,
a lot of those have basically disappeared.
And local news organizations
are under terrible, terrible duress.
- And it's systematically starved
entire swaths of population
from having real, critical information
about what's happening around them.
- And that's not conducive to serving citizens
and finding and reporting on under-reported stories.
We need to flip this incentive model on its head,
and that's what we are trying to do at Civil.
- When I first thought of Civil,
I wanted to create a decentralized marketplace
for sustainable journalism,
having no idea how to actually build it.
And then I discovered blockchain.
- The point of Civil is to take the big media company
out of the equation.
- We're trying to effectively rewrite the technology stack
of the entire journalism industry from the bottom up,
in a permanent and publicly-owned manner.
I'm passionate about journalism because of what it means
to a free and open and just society,
but as an entrepreneur, I'm obsessed
with the business model problem.
I think it's one of the most wicked business model problems
that any industry is facing.
- Public trust in the media is at an historic low today.
We think there's an opportunity to build a new model,
quite literally from the ground up,
that prioritizes the process
that goes into reporting these stories,
and that provides a new level of transparency to readers.
Civil provides journalists with the tools they need
to build sustainable businesses.
From subscription businesses to crowdfunding models
and beyond, businesses that prioritize
the process of quality journalism.
And we're recruiting a community
that will govern the platform and ensure
that publishers on Civil are always adhering
to the highest journalistic standards.
- Civil is built on the Ethereum Blockchain.
This is, as much as anything, a decentralized,
publicly-owned concept, so we need to get ourselves
out of the way as rapidly as possible,
and we're using technology called Tokens to do that.
- The Civil Token is a consumer token.
It is a voting stake on the platform.
Token-holders will have a vote on who can publish on Civil,
and will play a pivotal role in holding them accountable,
with economic incentives built right into the technology.
It's a unique opportunity to shape the future of journalism,
and help preserve it for generations to come.
- We can't do this without you.
We can't do this without distributing our tokens
to as many mission-aligned people, journalists,
organizations as possible.
- The first set of newsrooms that have signed
onto Civil are known as The First Fleet.
They have been in the trenches of journalism.
They've seen the problems of making good,
quality news and journalism in the 21st century.
- Civil is seeking to be a platform for us, not a publisher.
The journalists you see up here today
are the owners of the Colorado Sun,
and we will be the ones calling the shots.
- Civil has deliberately chosen to focus
its initial newsrooms on local, international,
investigative and policy journalism.
- We have a ton of newsrooms that we're launching with,
and we're really excited about.
When you encounter a newsroom on Civil,
you'll know that that newsroom has committed
to publish according to the purpose, values,
and working standards of our platform,
which is called the Civil Constitution.
- The point of the Civil Constitution
is to make sure that we all have a common understanding,
so that we can have a generally agreed-upon framework
that any newsroom, any journalist
on the platform agrees to abide by.
- The Civil Media Company is not the arbiter
of whether or not you're doing that.
The public is.
We're at the very beginning of what we think is a long road,
but it's one we believe will inject new life
into journalism at a critical time,
and ensure it survives and thrives long into the future.

This Binge-drinking Tree Shrew Could Probably Outdrink You - Duration: 4:34.

[♩INTRO]
Humans are far from the only animals that drink booze.
But, like us, they usually pay for it after.
That poor Swedish moose is never going to live down
that whole drunkenly-getting-stuck-in-a-tree thing.
But there's a mysterious little tree shrew in Southeast Asia
that basically lives on palm wine.
And somehow, it never gets drunk.
Lots of animals will occasionally down a spiked drink if given the chance.
Some even show a preference for it.
But none are so well adapted to binge-drinking as the pen-tailed tree shrew.
They're small, nocturnal mammals
and they spend their nights drinking bertam palm nectar.
The spiky plant is a tough sell for most species,
so being able to consume it
gives the tree shrews an abundant, reliable food source.
But the sugary juice it produces is frothy and stinks like booze, for good reason.
It's fermented by yeast, and it can contain as much alcohol as a light beer,
up to about 4%.
That doesn't seem to matter to the tree shrews, though,
who can spend spend more than two hours at a time slurping away.
Scientists have calculated that they drink their body weight equivalent
of about 9 glasses of wine several nights a week.
But they never seem drunk!
No stumbling around, falling out of trees,
or dialing their exes because they need closure.
And that might be because of the way they break down alcohol.
When we drink, most of the alcohol we consume
is broken down by an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase,
eventually becoming acetic acid, aka the stuff in vinegar.
But a very small amount is bound to a glucose derivative
to make a compound called ethyl glucuronide.
And tree shrew hairs contain about 30 times the level of ethyl glucuronide
that indicates excessive drinking in people.
Researchers think that's because tree shrews are
up to 30 times more efficient than us at breaking down ethanol this way,
which could explain their tolerance.
But lots of ethyl glucuronide is also thought to be
one of the drivers of blinding hangover headaches,
as well as the pain associated with withdrawal in alcoholics.
So we don't yet know how they avoid being perpetually hungover…
or why they aren't grumpier
if they do spend every morning with a splitting headache.
Of course, pen-tailed tree shrews aren't the only animals
that can handle their liquor.
Several bat species can apparently drink until their blood alcohol is 0.3%
nearly four times the legal driving limit in the US
and they still hunt and fly just fine.
But biologists don't think that kind of drinking is a nightly activity for them.
And other species, including primates like the slow loris,
also drink alcohol regularly, they just don't drink as much.
Tree shrews are the only animals we know of that binge drink all the time…
other than some humans.
Which is especially interesting, because
they're considered one of our closest living non-primate relatives,
having veered off from our line some 60ish million years ago.
Their boozy behavior adds to the growing evidence
that our relationship with alcohol began long before
we learned how to ferment it for ourselves,
and may even suggest there are benefits to regular drinking.
But … it's important to remember that their bodies have
adaptations for excessive alcohol consumption that ours don't.
So it's probably best to leave the binge drinking to the tree shrews.
Thanks for watching this episode of SciShow,

I'm on the internet all the time for work, but in my free time,
I also like to be on internet all the time.
But depending on where you are,
the internet is not always as safe as you might think.
With NordVPN, you can make your connection to the internet more secure.
A VPN is a Virtual Private Network.
If you're watching this video in a coffee shop or in an airport,
you're on a public network,
which means other people might be able to see what you're doing online.
Even secure sites aren't always completely safe.
And while watching a SciShow video anywhere is great…
let's say you needed to check your bank statement on that same wifi network.
That's not information that you want to share with just anyone,
so, a public network is not the best way to do that.
With a VPN, that sensitive information would be encrypted
and routed through a trusted server before being sent to the bank.
And your bank statement would be encrypted by the server on the way back,
so none of your personal information would ever be accessible
by people on the public wifi.
And NordVPN does all of this for you with over 4600 servers in 62 countries,
and they're adding new secure servers all the time.
They've actually added over 200 servers
since the last time they sponsored a SciShow video!

New American Funding Team Members Fare Well at Health Fair - Duration: 2:57.
Where does the general keep his armies?
Where?
In his sleevies.
Hello everyone, we are here at the NAF 360 Health Fair out here getting healthy and checking out
our vendors.
We are also going to be doing interviews today from our fellow employees so lets see what
they have to say.
My name is John Brugman.
I work in the video department along with this one.
My name is Sergio Alvarez, I've been with New American Funding for about a year and
a week now.
Been here for like a year and a half now.
I'm a senior loan consultant on Robert Gonzalez's team.
Alright, what is your favorite part of working here besides working with me.
Alright Sergio, why did you choose New American Funding?
My favorite part of working here is by far the people that I work with.
My dad always said a job is only as good as the people you work with and I work with amazing
people here.
It actually just fell in my lap, I graduated college from UC San Diego, didn't know what
I wanted to do, and this was something that very well interested me so I decided to take
it upon myself and make the most of it.
Okay, okay.
Yeah!
I'm here with my friend Ray. He's going to...
Raymundo.
Raymundo, ooohhh.
Hi!
I'm Daniel.
I've been here for about a year and a half or so, and now I'm in the Senior CSR department.
ILA sales, 9 years.
My favorite part of my job is, currently I think it's more just providing a solution
for potential homeowners.
Be more of that coach and not necessarily the sales person.
Someone in your department who has made an impact on you.
Chad Church.
Why is that?
Chad Church knows a lot about the industry, teaches me lots about lead acquisitions,
and CRS. I don't have a half hour to tell you how much.
Well shout out to you Chad.
First guy that came to mind.
Oh, you just won yourself two lollipops oh snap.
I just like the work environment here, it's always so friendly ever since my first day.
I just love the comradery.
What is one word to describe your department.
Cool.
Very fun, always trying to plan events for the employees once a month, the eating contests,
the sales floor.
That is just something I'll always cherish in my heart.
That's awesome, I agree.
It's a great environment here.
Well, thank you so much.
We're going to go get you a lollipop and then you're good to go.

July Favorites - Duration: 13:50.
Hey YouTube! It's time for a July favorites video. I have been spending
money a little bit left and right lately, so there will be a number of items in this
favorites video. I won't have a physical thing to show you for all of them but I
will make sure to leave links in the description below if you're interested
in some of these things. So the first thing... challenge... that I want to mention
is the #meandwhitesupremacy challenge hosted by Layla Saad @wildmysticwoman. This was an amazing opportunity this month to work through
my relationship to a lot of different aspects or pieces of white supremacy
personally, and also it was really encouraging to see the number of white
folks who were maybe participating in something like this for the first time,
who haven't, you know, had chances in their daily life to name whiteness, to be
aware of it and interrogate it and just really dig in deeply, and so I'm so
grateful to Leila for making the space. She had to deal with a lot of shit she
shouldn't have to deal with in this challenge. I made another video kind
of calling some white folks in who really behaved in inappropriate ways
during the challenge, and you know I think that it's amazing that she did
this work and also you know, it's a shame that like she did it for free and that
folks were still reacting negatively, but I want to... on a positive note, like I think a lot of people really did get to dig in on this and are doing the work
continue doing that work... continuing to do the work, so that is awesome
and I want to remind you that you can support Layla financially
@wildmysticwoman on Instagram. You can find there the links to her Patreon
and PayPal, even if you didn't do the challenge and you just want to support
this being in the world. If you are called to participate, keep in mind that
she has asked that people do not start the challenge now, but she will be putting
out a workbook and then I think having another opportunity to to engage in a
paid way with the challenge, so if you're interested definitely follow her on
Instagram so that you can see when those opportunities come up. I also wanted to
mention, well I'm kind of gonna indirectly mention the tarot for the wild
soul July challenge on Instagram, which was pretty awesome, but by way of
showing the first deck I wanted to mention. So if you do follow me on
Instagram, you've seen the Mystic Mondays deck, because I've been using it
for that challenge. This was not a deck that I saw existed and was like crap, I have
to have this, see it's very bright colors, kind of geometric, but immediately when I
started reading with it it's just totally transformative, totally clear
gives amazing readings that are just... yeah, very clear, and sometimes will kick
you in the ass, but so you see it kind of has this graphic, kind of Illustrated
look, simple but that does not mean that the readings themselves are simple.
So I super recommend it. I will do a real review probably at some point, but that
is a favorite. Another deck that is a favorite that I have not really read
with yet, but I'm looking forward to it, is the Kaleidadope Tarot, and that's
also available online. Kaleidadope Tarot, color and culture.
So this is a kind of kind of cartoony deck, but it focuses on representation.
Well I'll get back to the representation, but I've got to say that three of swords, I
just love that, the pushpins and the balloon, is like my favorite three of
swords. So not all the cards are figures, but when they are it's particularly
celebrating black bodies, black and brown bodies, and just in general like I think
this is a really really striking deck.
Some of the images are fairly simple, but they are evocative to me. So I'll also do
an actual review of that one, that's just a quick look at the Kaleidadope Tarot. So
moving on to a couple other tarot- related things, one is these tarot bags. So
I have been, I like... whatever you call, I don't know the name for it, but the kind
of box, it's a hard box and it has a lid, I like those
I'm totally happy to keep my cards in those, I don't really feel the need to
take them out, but the tuck boxes I'm not a fan of having to open it every time
and kind of messing up a box, so I have been looking for tarot bags and pouches
and I've tried... I bought some from a few different sellers on Etsy and I like
different ones for different reasons, but these are from heatherrainlover, and so
you can see the whole... little tassel, it's a zippered pouch they come in three
sizes and then there's also separate listings for the large versions, which
are longer... so this mathy one I use for Tarot of the Silicon Dawn, I just really
like that... this is a small size, so this would work well for kind of standard
size cards or in this case Silicon Dawn is smaller, but it's a thicker deck cause
there's extra cards in there... I like that it is fairly close to the size of the
deck so there's enough room to get it in there, it's not hard to pull them in
and out, but it also doesn't take up a lot of extra space because I end up
having like a lot of cloth kind of weaving around my shelves, so I really
like these from heatherrainlover. Another Tarot experience that I took
part in in July was a Tarot for the Wild Soul court cards immersion course
offered by Lindsey Mack, which was amazing. So I think she's offering it again next
year, but she's also open right now for the eight-week course Tarot for the Wild
Soul, which will be recorded video lessons. She's also doing a retreat version of it in person up in Kripalu, I think it's
Kripalu, but yeah, if you, if you're not familiar with Lindsay Mack, definitely
check out the Tarot for the Wild Soul podcast, it is really good and like, it's
just been amazing for me. That's why I decided to take the course, I wasn't
quite sure cause I was like well, she covered the court cards in the podcast, so
do I need to take this course? But I took it and it was just like, it blew me away.
So if you if you are a fan of Lindsay's and you're not sure would a course add on
for you? I would definitely recommend it. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna take...
I'm not hundred percent sure, I'm gonna check in with my budget and make a
decision soon, but I will probably be in it and would love to see you there
because I think it's gonna be a really great experience. Then just some people
favorite people, people who I've either encountered or gotten to know their work
more in July that really resonated with me, especially in the kind of witchy
tarot astrology realm. City Witch, non-binary witches yay! The Word Witch,
who may also be a non-binary, I'm not sure, but also really great content. The
Firebrand Witch, Asali Earthwork who does the tarot of the QTPOC deck
listing and interview series, powerfemme tarot and then I already mentioned
Lindsey Mack, but also Lindsey Mack. So those people, like I just, their content
on Instagram, Patreon, whatever channel, has been really great and really
helpful for me, so I wanted to give some shoutouts. In music, one, tiny desk concerts.
If you don't know the tiny desk concert, great way to discover artists you're not
familiar with, a range of genres, range of like people from all over the world come
to NPR here in DC and sit down behind Bob Boilen's desk and
record, usually a two to four song set, and they tape it. NPRmusic is the
YouTube channel, and so you can see all those, go back to the old ones. One I
really liked was... wow, really, I was trying to call her Gillian Welch or Alison
Krauss and it's neither of those people... Bela Fleck and... it's just not gonna come
to me... Bela Fleck and Bell Fleck's wife, but I hate to say... Abigail Washburn! Yes, okay
because I actually like Abigail Washburn even more than Bela Fleck. They
did one together that I would really recommend their set, but just tons of
like, unknown artists really really good way to discover new music. And then the
Florence + the Machine album dropped. And ugh, I just, me... Florence, Florence
and I... I have a thing for Florence + the Machine. Florence Welch, just something
about her just calls to my heart. I would not say this is my favorite album
of theirs, but it's very good. It's very specific, it's kind of all about a
particular period of her life, it's very personal and it's just... I don't
personally resonate with it as much as some of the other albums, but if you do
have family stuff, addiction history, substance abuse in your past, like I
think this will definitely hit you hard. And that's available on Spotify.
So in things I watched, Netflix has a lot of good comedy right now, so I had been
watching a bunch of their stuff, but the most recent is W. Kamau Bell
has his special, Private School Negro is available on Netflix now and it's... you
know this if you know Kamau Bell, I think it's amazing but really funny, really
relevant, and just awesome. And then this isn't a real... so this is not a recs video,
it's a favorites video, so I know this is really old but my roommates and I have
been watching Avatar:The Last Airbender, and we
finished last night. And I don't, like, uncritically recommend it if you haven't
seen it, there's a lot of just like, oh my god it's clearly white Americans making
a show that involves a lot of Orientalism and cultural appropriation and
there's weird disability stuff, but there's also really good representation.
So even though like there are lots of problems with it, it's a ten-year-old
kids show, and for what it is it's pretty good, and I'm super excited to watch
Korra now that I've seen Last Airbender. Okay,
books. Emergent Strategy by adrienne maree brown, I had been looking forward
to so much, finally started reading it, I'm only a third way through, but it's
like... should be a foundational text for everyone, definitely get it.
I fanqueer hard for adrienne maree brown, but the specific book like is just...
yes, get it. Trans Like Me, I posted a review, it's by C.N. Lester,
so I will put below the blog post. So that one I did get a free copy of for
blog review, to be transparent, but I thought it was really nice. I really
like the way trans nonfiction is going from the kind of sensationalized memoir
to a more kind of critical trans-centric lens. And then the third one is a very
specific thing, but it is a favorite in the kind of business book category, if
you're.. if you happen to randomly be a tech manager like me, there is this book
called The Manager's Path by Camille Fournier that someone recommended to
me in a conference, and it is really good. So that's all I'm gonna say, it's like
very specific if you're in that field, read that book. Finally a couple of food
items if you are vegan, vegan jerky... there's a lot of vegan jerky but this
particular vegan jerky... not necessarily the flavor, I tried a bunch of flavors
but Paulette's is the name of it and it's really
moist and really delicious and protein! And then the last food item I do not
have one to show you because I ate them all, but Trader Joe's, if you kind of go
in the corner they're usually stored in a weird place, they have these tins of
dolma. So like the grape leaves stuffed with rice, and they're vegan and it's a little
tin, you get ten of them in a tin... ten in a tin... but they're really good for like,
you've got to go to work, you want something really small to throw in your
bag and it's a whole lunch, gonna recommend that. So yeah, that was kind of
all over the place, but I will leave links below and those are my favorites
for July!

Advanced Certificate in MBOT - Orientation - Duration: 9:08.
Hi everyone! Welcome to the Mindfulness-Based Occupational Therapy
Advanced Certificate Program Orientation! We have a few slides to share with you
and we will go through those slides and if there's any questions that
come up over the course of, you know, this orientation, you're welcome to email us
at any time and we'll get your questions answered, but thank you so much for
joining us. We are delighted to have you here with us.
We're happy to have you
help create a community of practice within our healthcare professions and
bring our experience to bear, as well as, strengthen personal practice and see how
that applies to our life, our work, our sense of self, and our ability to digest
our experiences, and show up with robust presence and heart. So, for the overview
of the program, this is an 11 unit academic program. It's five hundred and
twenty-five dollars per unit or five thousand seven hundred and seventy-five
dollars for the 11 unit program. There are four online courses and one
mid program in-person, 5-day residential training retreat, at 1440 Multiversity,
which is in Scotts Valley here in the San Francisco Bay Area and the retreat
fees associated with that program including travel costs are not included
in the per unit course fee for our program. So, you can take a look at
Multiversity and get a sense for the cost of those programs there and and if
you have any additional questions just be sure to contact us and let us know
and we'll get back to you about those and go over those details with you.
Our program is comprehensive to really route you deeply in personal practice and
we'll be having an interactive forum - meditating together, having teachings, as
well as, practice partners, dyads, and inquiry and small group work. You'll
be journaling to help integrate your experiences and also
having assigned readings and assignments. The papers and written participation
will be graded, since these are credit classes and of course the practice
itself will not be graded.
So, the program curriculum is listed here and all there are links provided to each
of these courses online so, you can get a sense for just some more detail about
what these courses cover. These courses are meant not just for occupational
therapists, but for healthcare practitioners in an infinite number of
settings. Since, these are broad and encompassing practices and skills that
we're developing, and so they really can be integrated in any kind of
healthcare setting all over the world. So, that's why we are explicitly
inviting all healthcare practitioners to join us in this program and these
courses are sequential, so you begin in the mindfulness of self-course and you
move through these courses with a small cohort of a community that you
build over time as we work together in collaboration and practice partnerships
and mentorship. We really are, you know, going together on a journey from
the beginning of this program all the way through to the end. The final course
is an explicitly integrating mindfulness you're creating a program
that you will be integrating into your work and it's evidence-based and you
will be, you know, really developing and crafting a publishable quality
intervention program in this course. So, see if there's anything else I want to
say with that. Again, if there's any questions that you have about the
courses typically, what you see within an academic setting in a state university
as this program is offered in. Per-unit the requirement is
that you would spend three hours per week in addition to the class so let's
say, you know, each course we meet weekly over the course of the semester for a
two hour period. So, for a two unit course, each unit would
require about three hours outside of class time per week. So, the 2 unit
course that's about six hours per week that you'll be working with the
practices working with the journaling and the readings and in your practice
partnerships and things like that, so just to kind of consider, you know, the
time requirement outside of in-class time for these courses and again let me
know if you have any questions about this we can get your questions answered.
Our program is really supporting you, we're here to support you in being a
mindfulness based healthcare practitioner, so that you have a strong
grounding to work in what is a very intensive health care and societal
conditions right now and people in our world, our clients patients and families
need this support, so that we can be living as fully as we can with strength
of spirit and knowing that we're connected with other people who care
about working in this way and approaching our interactions and our
experiences with increased awareness as well as increased heart so we're happy
to be joining together to support one another and explore this rich territory
So, for applying to the program, admissions opens August 1st and what you
would do is declare your objective to enroll in the MDOT program via Cal State
apply and the link is provided there You'll provide a personal statement, the
letter of intent transcript with the 2.5 GPA or higher from an undergraduate
program a copy of your resume and completion proof of completion
of an eight-week MBSR course. Also knowing that you can apply even
if you do not have the MBS or course completed yet what you would do is just
list or state the date when the MBSR program will be completed and as long as,
it's completed by the time the first course mindfulness of self is taught in
the spring of 2019 then that will be fine. You'll also provide a proof of
license as a health care practitioner or professional from any accredited
institution. There are times where healthcare practitioners are changing
careers and they are not currently licensed and you are also eligible to
apply and then finally a proof of participation in a MBOT certificate
program orientation, such as, this one and the way you provide proof of that is
that you list this code, which is 'mindfulness in healthcare' and there
will be other opportunities other than this orientation to gain, to complete
this proof of participation in an orientation. There's a variety of
different options. So, for the spring of 2019 cycle, you will mail the forms in to
the address listed here on this slide. Beyond that from fall of 2019, we will
be using an online admissions application submission software, so this
is this first spring you will be mailing it in and beyond that we will be using
an online format for admissions and applying. So, I think that is it. Thank You
everyone so much for joining us again! Let us know if you have any questions
We look forward to working together and enriching each other's experience
supporting each other in practice and exploration and applying this to our
life and works, so thanks again!

Fat Tony – My Climb. My Music. - Duration: 2:58.
I decided I wanted to be a musician like from the moment that I saw that group, Kriss Kross
I was like "yo, I can do this too".
You know, prior to that making music was kind of a fantasy to me
but, seeing Kriss Kross and then seeing the band Minor Threat
seeing them be like teenagers making music
working-class people making music, told me that I could do it myself.
Two things really inspired me to make music:
One, is my love of music.
I really say that before being a musician I'm a fan first
every time I hear a great song I'm inspired to get back at it.
Another thing that inspires me, it's just life itself.
You know, I really try to look at my real life and the real lives lived
around me the best music and the best art comes from your real life
experiences so I try to accumulate a lot of those and I tap into those memories
and those lessons and those experiences when I want to create something great.
I love performing, it's my absolute favorite part of being a musician.
I feel like being on stage is when I get to really express myself in the most
genuine and authentic and best way possible 'cause on stage I can improvise,
I can feed off the crowd, I can do things that are just really special to that
time and place that I am at when I am performing and that's the real gift of
this, this whole thing.
Partnering with Coors Light is important to me 'cause
Coors Light offers the chance to touch people that may have never heard of Fat Tony
and not just my music but my message and my overall vibe which I
think I'm a little biased I think more people need to get with and I really
respect Coors Light for reaching out to an artist like I need someone who is
independent, someone who was from the underground, someone who is from Houston.
What keeps me moving forward in my career? Is knowing that there's always
more to get out of this, you know throughout your life hopefully you
evolve as an artist time and time again and try different stuff and that's what
I want my life to be I want to still be a creative person when I'm 60, 70, 80
you know as as long as I'm lucky to be here I want to keep making music or keep
making something that means a lot to me.

Harry Potter House of Books Challenge | BookTube-A-Thon Day 2 - Duration: 4:05.
it is day two of booktubeathon which also means that it's challenge number
two and today's challenge is a house of books which I've decided to make a house
of Harry Potter books because I am all into the Harry Potter this month I don't
know what it is the newts came at the perfect time it's going to be happening
later this month and I decided why not go ahead and incorporate some Harry
Potter type themes into the booktubeathon I will be using all of the
Harry Potter books in the series as well as a double of the first book because I
had an illustrated edition let's see if this gets as good as my thumbnail or if
it is an utter disaster
two seconds
so that is it for the house of books challenge or the house of Harry Potter
the way that I did it I hope you enjoyed this I am shocked that I was able to
stabilize it in 30 seconds the last 7 seconds was just me placing that one
book and it looked like it was not gonna stay but it stayed I can even stick my
hand in between the books wiggle wiggle yes so lots of fun definitely an awesome
challenge let me know down below what you thought about this challenge do you
think it was cool that I did the Harry Potter books as part of it if you did
this challenge as well please let me know in the comments down below and I
will just click on your name and go find it and go watch that video and give it a
like I'm really excited to see what everyone else comes up with and if
anyone else did it kind of like series stack because I think that's just kind
of cool aesthetically and also I would like to shout out Rachael Marie's
channel today I forgot to do a shout-out in my last video so yes go check out
Rachel Marie's channel she does some reading vlogs every once in a while she
does a lot of discussions and that's kind of what I'm really liking on her
channel as well as tags and just personal storytimes which are also very
rare on booktube but I would like to see more of because you really get to know
the person so if you want to go see her then go check out her channel I will
link it down below also just a small side note for booktubeathon it is just
not feasible for me to do closed captioning on my videos but because I
still want the hearing impaired to be able to actually know what's going on I
am still doing closed captioning with less quality. So what
I'm doing is I'm making sure that every word is correct
but I'm not worrying about capitalization or punctuation so I hope it's
comprehensible and if it's not and there's someone that needs the closed
captions to be high-quality then let me know cause if I know if
there's someone that's actually benefiting from all of that time because
it can take me like three hours on a ten mintute video then I will put in that
time but if no one's benefiting or it doesn't make a difference then I will just check
to make sure the words were correct for those people
yes that is all I have today thank you so much for watching this
video please give it a like if you liked it or a thumbs down if you didn't so I
know what kind of content you want to see on this channel and I will see you
all in the next video share this with a friend if you think it'll give them a
smile don't forget to smile or at least smile with anger because this is my
happy face and I'll see you all in the next video bye :)
