"Led the successful effort to defeat a similar amendment in Kansas, where abortion remains legal up to 20 weeks. That vote in another conservative leaning state surprised many observers. Suite says here in Kentucky, the stakes are even higher. And whereas in Kansas, we were trying to really make an argument about protecting the status quo and protecting the rights that we had in the Kansas constitution. This is really about how do we start reversing the tide of these really extreme abortion restrictions that we've seen. For kentuckians who oppose abortion amendment two offers an opportunity to shore up state restrictions for the long term. Adia busner is with Kentucky right to life and a leader of the vote yes campaign, she points to decades of federal litigation around abortion under roe V wade and says she doesn't want to see drawn out battles over abortion bans in Kentucky's state courts now. Remember, we've had roe. We've been in a 49 years of row. No one wants 49 years of the Kentucky constitution drug out into this battle. Polling on the ballot initiative is hard to come by, but a 2019 survey from the firm public policy polling found that a majority of kentuckians support abortion rights and oppose criminalizing the procedure. Wisner argues the amendment before voters would keep the state constitution neutral on abortion, which her organization opposes in virtually all circumstances. It just keeps it out of the constitution. It keeps it so there can not be a misinterpretation in the constitution. And that's very important. But I think a lot of people are afraid of looking around the country looking at some states that have passed laws without exceptions for rape and incest, for example. If they won't be able to kill the children, let's talk about one of the Aphrodite. Afraid that they won't have the right for women to take the lives of their children, do you think that's a right? Notes that here in Kentucky, as in Kansas, abortion rights supporters have significantly out fundraised groups who oppose abortion. But the amendment also has strong support from powerful conservative religious groups, including the Catholic conference of Kentucky and the Kentucky baptist convention.

"So we've opted out of the self care this week because it is combined with our kitchen table talk. I got what I came from that conversation from doctor adia. And so absolutely. That is my self care for the whole week. Combined times two. Squared. But we do have an honesty box this week, so we wanted to go ahead and get into that. Would you like to give our listener she her a pseudonym? Sure, let's call her. I want to say, let's call her, I don't know. I just am drawing a blank. Give me a minute. Regime hunter. Regime hunter. Regime says. Regime. Hello, Jaden Kia. That is not how she said it probably. Longtime listener of the pod here. I want to dedicate a shout out to both of you lovely ladies and your recent podcast guests. Doctor Kelly ruggles. Thank you. I listened to the episode where you all explored the topic of nutrition wellness and body image and found myself implementing the essence of this talk with a patient. I'm a black woman primary care physician and I have the privilege to work at a clinic where the majority of the patients are black. I spoke with the patient recently about weight management surgery upon talking to her. I noticed her tone about how the weight gain and about her weight gain and we dove deeper about eating patterns and body image, which unveiled some habits concerning for an eating disorder eating disorder. I was able to speak with her about the importance of holistically approaching the topic of weight and the importance of addressing the psychological and emotional component body and weight health. We deferred the surgery conversation and opted to engage counseling and services instead. Thank you for recognizing the need to speak about this topic. Thank you for you all's wisdom. That was doctor Kelly rugby. Yes, indeed. My patient and I spoke about the limitations of calorie restriction and I worked to de stigmatize the shame and guilt around hunger for this patient. I love it. The inspiration I got from this topic embodied me to feel comfortable with assuring that my patient had the appropriate form of treatment. She needed for a physical emotional and mental health as a woman who looks like me. Thank you. Yes. And obviously we're keeping her keeping her private. For a patient confidentiality, patient doctor confidentiality, but I thought that was such a beautiful. Honesty, 'cause I thought that was something really beautiful to share because that's why we have the discussions that we have and bring in the people who know what they're talking about for those specific conversations because this is a larger community. This is a community, like it's not just a podcast. It is actually community. And Kia and I both view it as such. And so the honesty boxes are not simply here for us to be like, okay, girl, spill the tea this week. But it's more so because we want that community to expand out. And if there are ways for us to connect our community and that's what we're that's what we're here to do. And so to see something like this is beautiful. I'm sorry, I've been rambling. No, that's awesome. Thank you so much. And thank you, doctor regime hunter, for writing. And for it's really like J say, it's very affirming as we really try to be very conscious about the conversations that we curate here on getting grown. And it just does my heart really good to know that folks are being helped and empowered by absolutely. What we're offering. So thank you for writing it in, shout out to you and to your patient. And you know, listen. We love to hear it. Thank you. We do. Thank you for sharing. We sit her love on her journey. And we're glad that that was able to help you in your field, which this is a field where we need more black women. You know what I'm saying? In order to help us with our health needs because we know how we're looked at within the healthcare system. So I just thought that was a beautiful ecosystem.

"Organization that doesn't make you any less you. Or if you can't dance at the house parties, it don't make you any less. 'cause I did laugh and I felt a little bad. I said, we used to call my mom Napoleon Dynamite. And I was like, did I contribute? So her lack of self worth. So, you know, you think about black folk is they gonna tell you. Oh, yes. When you look a mess, they're gonna tell you. So you get yourself together. So you can get yourself together. And I appreciate it. That's what we need. That is the community that we need around you. Oh, we're so grateful for you, doctor, did you think so much for coming? Thank you. And sharing. It's really beautiful joy. Points of view. Thank you. That's permission to think differently. And think about what self care means beyond, oh, you know, I allow myself to sleep in this weekend, which is important, right? Because the rest is important. But you know, how do we think about changing the narrative, not only that we hear around us, but the internal one, too. And stop dragging ourselves so much. A complete reframing of what self care really means. Absolutely. Absolutely. All right. Before you go, I got one more question. Okay. What do you like to listen to for your self care? Music. What are your favorite things? Give us two. This is. This is a good question. Okay, so I will say, Lauryn Hill is my favorite. That miseducation of Lauryn Hill is always going to be my favorite album. Classic. But I like some good old school kind of like funk. Like if I want to like dance around the living room and just, you know, get into it, that's that's gonna top for me. Some Stevie Wonder. I love it. Stephen. You have to come back after you. Please.

"Family just sizing me up. Oh my gosh. They're like, look, she looked to the left. That means she's lying. So, you know, so I had this model of like, what does it look like to help people to do sort of different things with an understanding of how people work. And that really fit for me. And I think more recently I've sort of gone into, okay, how do I impact people beyond the therapy room? The therapy room is great. And you know, it's like one person at a time. And so I sort of felt like there's something else that I want. I want to be able to reach more people more quickly, especially if there are things that I know work. And so that's what sort of led me into creating a group coaching program and the date yourself course because it allows me to help more people in a shorter period of time. And in the day yourself, of course, do you find yourself obviously we know that is, it is not literal. But do you find that you get a lot of people who are already partnered who join the course to really kind of focus on themselves? That's a good question. I don't know if I have the best read on who's in the relationship status of the people in the program, but I will say the last kind of launch promotion I did, I did some dating coaching as a bonus. And so I think that I definitely got more people who are single who are not partnered in that round. I think generally most of the people that I attract are not partnered, but there are people who are partnered. I think it can help. But I do think that sometimes people who are not partnered and want to be partnered, there's more of a pain point there, right? There's more of a like, I really want to figure this out because I would like lifelong partnership. I would like healthy relationships. No, that's fair. Well, I got a whole lot of black aunties and a whole bunch of us who need to join this course to learn how to date themselves. Niggas are no niggas because people need to learn how to sit with them so they learn, love yourself, take yourself to lunch girl. Thank you so much. It's a beautiful thing. I love this doctor. I think that these are really very simple things to think about, but also very profound. I never thought about the distinction between self esteem and self worth. And I think that's something notable that you're doing because it's something that we need to all pay attention to, right? 'cause if they're two separate things and that means that there's something else that we need to be focusing on in order to make sure that we're showing up as our full selves. So I think this work is beautiful. Thank you so much. Yes. Especially given this grind culture that we're in and so much of what we do. I mean, all of social media, all of it, everything has become about, you know, being an entrepreneur and being a boss and all of these, you know, all of these things. And while there is, you know, I don't have anything against any of that. But at the same time, I wonder, even for myself, 'cause I can relate to, you know, finishing the dissertation and being like, okay, now what? What other thing am I going to tell them myself to? After I've been tethered to this thing. So that makes a whole lot of sense. And I thought too. I mean, even recently, have been sitting with how insatiable, it's like you'd never get to the place where you can accomplish enough. And you know, you sit with that realization. And it's like, you know, okay, why not turn that energy toward really understanding who the heck I am outside of what the heck I do. So thank you. Yeah, and I think one of the things that's been really powerful for me is to shift out of hustle work hard, work long. I'm really intentionally letting go of the idea that I have to work hard and long in order to be successful. And I'm embracing the idea that success and impact can come with ease can come with joy can come with fun. And you know, it's a work in progress for me, but I do think that leaving academia and academia academic settings has certainly helped. With that, and some of it is like, oh, that provided a lot of security, right? Because I could say, oh, I work at this place, right? That's a sense of self worth. Like, oh, people and I think especially as a black woman, it's like, oh, you're going to take me more seriously. If you know I'm affiliated with this university. So it's like, okay, so I'm letting that go. I'm deciding I am done with that. And now it's up to me to choose how I create my own work environment because I work for myself. And so initially I was finding I was recreating that same intensity and I got to make this deadline and I got to do that. And it's like, oh, well, there's no one to blame, but me now. And so it's like, okay, well, what would it look like to do it with ease? What would it look like if I focused on the fact that what I offer people is not just about how many posts I can do, how much content I can produce the amount and the quantity but is how I show up and who I am and how I share my gifts because that is actually the most potent part of what I offer to the world. And so how can I, again, focus on who I be and sharing that with the world, but not in the like, it's got to be this much. And I still get caught up into it, but reminding myself, my gifts are about showing up, not how much, you know, not the quantity of things that I am doing. I mean a deep dive into my business. Huh? Just we are down in it. All right, we're not down in it. Because I mean, Jade and I talk a lot, because you know, I sort of, you know, everybody's heard this a thousand times, but just act like you haven't. But you know, I deal a lot with sort of academic Kia and, you know, I never, this podcast when we originally started it, it was like, oh, a little side project, I'll do with my sis, and it'll be a ton of fun. But over the years, recognizing that having, like you said, impact and influence connecting over the years, we have built a platform. We built a community. And where I share information and resources, and we do, we build tools and all these other things that we do here. And I mean slowly over the last few months, I've been seeing the synergy between my academic training in this space and I've had some folks, like, you know, doctor freeze bread and Lori Patton Davis, everyone, these people telling me like, this is not a hobby girl. This is not a side gig. But what if this is the major vehicle that drives your scholarly work and why can't this podcast be scholarly work? And like you said, how is this honoring my gifts and the way that I show up and sort of undoing this academic hamster wheel mindset where I feel like I have to have this many chapters this many journal articles, this many this and then thinking about, you know, it's a different avenue. It's a different vehicle, rather, but it's still having the same level of impact. And so like you said, I've been dealing heavily with that. And having that sort of internal struggle. And I don't know, I didn't expect to be this transparent, but here we are. And so and so, I want to thank you for sharing that because you are absolutely an example that it is safe and it is. Empowering for you to sort of embrace the unique ways that your gifts take shape in the world. And even if you don't fit into a conveniently fit into one title or one association or one.

"Think about our friends and our family and what we most appreciate about them, it's probably not that they like bake really good cookies or make the best Mac and cheese or do this or that thing for us. It's how we feel when we're in their presence. It's this person listens and I always feel heard and seen. It's they make me laugh so hard that I forget about anything else that's going on. I feel just so comforted by their presence, right? Like that is what we truly love and appreciate about people. And yet when we think about ourselves, we think, well, what do I do for people? Or what can I do for people? So even Tapping into, what is it that I bring with my presence, right? How do I show up? And how do I want to show up in a given space? And I think especially for black women because so often, we are asked to do so much. We are asked to do and do and do and do, right? Make the food, serve the food, clean up, get the thing together, get the right, it's so much doing. And how can we then think about, well, what do I bring besides the doing? And if you could sort of tap into that and maybe you even ask your friends or ask family members or loved ones that you trust like, what do you appreciate most about being with me? What is it that you feel that you sense? And that can start to be sort of an intention if you feel yourself pulled into. Okay, well I've got to make sure I bring this or I gotta make sure I do this. I think my thing used to be like, I gotta make sure I make everything from scratch if I go to a party because that's what makes people happy and they're gonna have cookies and that was my mode of operation versus like, no, they might just want to be around you. And that would be enough, so I think that that can be a place to start. I have some other practices that I talk about in the TEDx talk that I'm happy to go into here as well if that would be helpful. You watch my TED Talk before you came on here too, because that's what I be doing. Nico said I coming over and I'm like, it's time to bake pies and make chicken wings. Chicken wings. I'm going to season them going to fry them, so I'll make three or four different sauces. I'm going to peel the potatoes and make the French fries scratch goddamn. Okay, thanks for talking straight to the idea. I know there's real, though, because like you said, I think for many of us, we've been conditioned to think that way. Like, what do I bring often results in like, what do I actually bring? Like not like, you know, what about myself? Do I bring to this? But what do I contribute? To any space, whether that be decor, whether that be, you know, the music or whatever. I think we all think about these things. And I wonder, though, would it be weird to ask a friend, how do I make you feel? Is that funny? Is that like, would you be off put by that Jade if I said Jade? How do I make you feel girl? Would you be like, what? No, you know, I'm real. So I'd be like, what? That's true. You are. Why do you ask this question? Yes. I love this is true. I will be stretched out. I know you will. I don't know. Can you give me some time to prepare? And I'm going to make an outline with my notebook. I like to make a list. And then I can tell you. But that's a good idea. Okay, so I have a question for you, do you? So we've been conditioned these ways, right? And we're now in spaces where we've got little ones or, you know, little people attached to us in some form where we're trying to reframe so that maybe foundationally they're not feeling those things as early as maybe we did. Where would you start? What would you say to a young child? Blackjack. What would you say to a young child? To try to start to get them to shift their thinking as they get older in that direction. My making sense? Yeah. Okay. So really good question. I'm actually pregnant. So thinking about this for a while. Congratulations. Thank you, thank you. You know, I think it's about like when I think about, okay, so how am I going to parent my daughter, right? Part of what I want to do is show up for and with her, no matter what is going on, right? So she has a tantrum. And maybe I'm at my wits end, but how do I breathe through that offer myself compassion, offer her compassion, so that I'm not communicating, I don't like, I don't want, you know what I mean? If you do bad things or you're bad, right? Like I really dislike kids being called good or bad. It really bothers me. I think it's very unhelpful, right? Then I'll treat you a certain way if you act the way I want you to act, but if you don't act right, quote unquote, then I'm not going to treat you that way. Or I'm going to act like I don't love you, right? And that doesn't mean that I won't set boundaries that there won't be consequences, right, that they're not going to be guidelines and sort of rules of behavior, but I do think that we start with these subtle messages of, you know, if you're not acting right, if you're not acting the way I want you to act. And so often for kids, this is coming from a place of overwhelm of emotional dysregulation of all of these things, then I'm going to sort of turn my back on you, or I'm going to hit you, or I'm going to do these things to punish you. So I think starting even before a child is verbal, to just sort of allow, hold the space for all of the emotions that they are trying to figure out for all that's coming up, hold the space for them. And sort of say, I'm not going to run away from you. I'm not leaving you. That's part of what I tell my adult clients and the people in my programs. That's what I help them to do is how do you show up with yourself and for yourself when you're experiencing heartbreak or when you're experiencing shame because what we often do is we run away from ourselves and we do that by criticizing ourselves and judging ourselves and saying you shouldn't feel this way and what's wrong with you and I can't believe and why did you even get attached and all of this stuff because that's sort of what we heard and what we experienced as kids. And so the sort of process is how do you show up and say, I'm here with you. This is, this is hard, this is messy. This is painful and I'm gonna be with you in it. I'm not running away because no matter what you're experiencing, you're worthy of love and care and taking up space and I'm going to offer that to you in this moment. And that's something that you can offer yourself or you should be offering yourself, like first and foremost, right? Exactly. Exactly. Yeah, I mean, get me together. So okay. I'm like, she said, she's like, you started this before they start.

Listen to the adventures of Cairo wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome, welcome, everybody. We're a very excited. We have a very awesome amazing guest at the kitchen table. I will allow her to introduce herself, but everyone just give a rousing welcome. Now, no, help me, 'cause I don't want to say it wrong. It's adia, right? You got it, adia. Okay. Doctor adida goodin is joining us today. And we're gonna have an awesome conversation show, hey, dear, hey girl. Hey. Thanks for having me. I'm happy to be here. Very happy to have you. Yes. So before we get started, tell us a little bit about yourself. How would you introduce yourself to someone who's just meeting you? So I'm a licensed clinical psychologist, which means I have my PhD in clinical psychology and I'm trained as a therapist and I have a particular focus on supporting black women and their mental health and helping people to embrace their unconditional self worth. What an elevator page, right? Okay. For her staff, where and for those who are not subscribed to the Patreon booth for you, first of all, to be honest. You're missing out on not just ideas like how beautiful voice. Y'all missing out on these popping curls. That's adding splash of color, but it's not taking away, okay? And then you've got the glasses to boot. It's a little smile. Y'all is missing out on all of that. I just want you to know. And I want to just run through the Patreon to get in on the aesthetic. It really does add to the whole experience. Absolutely. So adia, I loved, I'm going to link. We're going to link everyone to your TED Talk. You did a talk in 2018 on unconditional self worth. And what resonated with me is right off the bat, you identified as a recovering overachieving black woman. So many of us have really been conditioned to attach value and find identity in what we do versus who we are. So talk to us a little bit about that journey for you. And sort of how you landed on the TEDx stage girl. Give us the tea. Yeah, so I mean, I think since I was pretty young, I was in this sort of achievement mode. I remember taking an entrance exam to get into private school for high school in getting my scores back and like sobbing because I was convinced that I would never get into any high schools. Turns out I got into all the ones I applied to, but it was just like, you know, my worth was threatened. It was like, what if I don't get it? And I would have been fine, but I already had this sense that I needed to do everything perfectly. I needed to achieve highly because that was what was gonna make me lovable, acceptable, worthy. And I spent decades doing that same thing, right? And part of what I found and I think what a lot of people find is like, one achievement is never enough. So you got to get into the right college and then, but that's not enough. So then you better do the right internship. And that's not enough, so then you better get into the right graduate school. And that's not enough. So for me, it was like, well, I better graduate in 5 years. And I better and I didn't graduate in 5 years, but it was like I took it to the point where I defended my dissertation and I walked out of that dissertation defense. And I passed, and I started sobbing. Because I realized, even that wasn't enough, even that was not going to do it. This sort of ultimate academic achievement. This ultimate sort of prove of my worth in an academic setting wasn't enough. And that really pushed me to start looking internally and looking at something else because if that wasn't going to do it, then probably nothing was. And this sort of challenge that I offer to people is can you get out of this game of trying to prove your worth through external things, whether that be academic achievement professional achievement, relationships, right? Because that's the sort of another form of achievement, I think, particularly for people who identify as women, right? What's your relationship's status? And all of those sorts of things. So yeah, so all of that, I spent decades that struggle overworking myself, trying to prove myself. And then shifted. And I think part of what.

"It was just real. Bitch, stop talking, please. Oh, wow. And because of that, which is not funny, Ryan, coogler was handcuffed and detained for a bit of time. Sweet guy. Until they, you know, we're able to clear. But what my issue is is that he was handcuffed before they even. Before they even tried to get any clarification as to what was going on because clearly this is not a fucking bank robbery. So once you all realize it's not a bank robbery, why would you then put this person in handcuffs as opposed to trying to get clarification around a situation? Just like that dirty ass bitch who called the cops on me because she thought I was performing fraud and it was really her own mistake. And that's why that bitch is business is out of motherfucking business. That's what you get baked in Brooklyn. But anyway, I'm so sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. That bitch is pottery places gone. Straight to hell. Good. But yes, Ryan coogler was detained by the police, handcuffed, and all of that. And we already know based off of events and out, you know, in history in recent history, how things could have gone. And so, you know, people got to be real careful. It's a very, very scary situation when, you know. And I understand, right? I understand that we are living in a time where anything can happen at any time. And so I understand sort of being attentive and guarded around certain things, but especially when you think about the added layer of folks wearing masks, and those kind of things. But nothing about this situation as it was told to me raised any red flags of alarm. Because it is not common that bank robbers provide their identification. It's not common that someone who is looking to rob a bank would say here is my driver's license. Here is the access information for the account that I am talking about. There's just certain things. And so it was really sad to just hear that, you know, we, it seems like we can't even do nothing, including go and get the money that we have earned, not ourselves. And so what a time. I don't even know what to say. It's an outrageous. What a time. It's just disgusting. And it makes me sad. And that girl who didn't have enough comments is to realize that the nigga was providing all of the things that you need to provide in order to put money out of your own very account. And then it was also the reporting within the news, because even afterwards, you have people that start calling him a promising director. That's different things. And it's like, this nigga has a whole sequel. In the Marvel Universe in Disney and whatever the fuck coming out, this fall, it's coming out this year. The second one. Oh my God. The second one.

Don't think that we're going to see him go a number one and I'm not sure that we'll see I don't think we'll see him go in the top three, but he's fair game. Pretty much anywhere after that and again much like in tires Halliburton's case it little bit I the beholder. He's got off so many strengths going for him and I the big thing that you hear when you talk. To Scouts about Killian haze over and over again is just they love how much he has improved his game how much he's worked on his game how he shown up and become a much better player over time and when you look at young players, you wanna see them evolving. You WanNa see them growing. You want to see them adding to their game and there's just been so much. Of that for Kilian Hayes this year that if you want to talk yourself into Hayes, you talk yourself into now that he faces NBA level competition. What sort of things and wrinkles is he going to add to his game? How is he going to adapt and how much better could he be down the road because he's got the size excels with a ball in his hands he's.

Highlights from the First-Ever AJC Virtual Global Forum
"This week thousands of global Jewish advocates were supposed to have been in Berlin for the AJC Global Forum. Unfortunately, the pandemic had other plans, but we weren't just going to cancel our critical conference, so we took the global forum virtual all week. Thousands of people from around the world have been tuning in on AJC DOT ORG to watch high level addresses, intimate conversations and fierce debates over the future of Israel, America in Europe over the course of. Of this episode, we're going to bring you. Parts of those conversations Dr Anwar. Gosh is the United Arab Emirates Minister of State for Foreign Affairs this week. He joined the J. C. Virtual. Global Forum for conversation with his friend and our chief policy officer Jason Isaacson in doing so he became the highest level official from an Arab country without relations with Israel to publicly address an American Jewish audience. Let's listen in to some of that conversation now. I want to begin by thanking the distinguish minister, not only for taking the time to share his insights with AJC and our many thousands of guests on this virtual platform, but for the multiple times that he and his colleagues in the leadership of the UAE have met with AJC over the twenty plus years that we have been regularly traveling to his country in pursuit of regional peace and cooperation and understanding or meeting with government officials when they have visited the united. States Dr Guard Gosh. It's very good to see you again. Thank you, Jason. Thank you I'd like. Like to begin by thanking you for boosting need today and I that this would be opportunity for a frank and constructive discussion, which is much needed I want closer to take the opportunity to thank ag see for what has been quite remarkable bridge to the ridge. There has been an octave work that was done to numerous visits to all the countries of ragent, all the countries of the Gulf and I think this sort of visiting and understanding the food of Fiji sees. Look over this city has been quite busted sounded, so thank you very much for that. Thank you very much. His remarks Dr Garg. The has a proud tradition of philanthropy including major charitable dishes here in the United States. How has your country contributed to the global fight against Akron bars pandemic, and what is your assessment of international cooperation in this fight generally closer to home, please talk about public health cooperation across the Middle East. How successful has it been? How can it be improved going forward? What specific role has the UAE played and I note by the way that the has twice in recent weeks, Asakusa and medical aid to the Palestinians by Israel feel free to discuss that as As well. I would actually agree with lock analysts who have said that our national responses have been more important than what I recall regional responses or googlers, every country, really as sort of look into its own and thermal situation, and this raises a lot of issues rarely about global cooperation, regional cooperation on issues such as the CAL now. If you look really adept policy, it's interesting, because in my opinion, we have come with a very I would say organized which nationally which is allowed us to actually and pry and help others and Binat relations originally and. We I think done something very successfully. Separate. Elliptical from the humanity so here for example we have no relationship with is ran, but at the same time we have recognized that this isn't Adia that we need to cooperate together because it is one that edges human beings finally from the religious affiliations at. Let's look at the long term effects of the pandemic on. The long lockdown of the widespread in deep economic disruptions, the effect that they will have on regional stability and security. Not every country in the region has the kind of resources that the UAE. Does you throw in the recent plunge in oil prices on the crisis across the region really is amplified. Are you forecasting a regional power relationship restructuring a potential conflict between states, says spike and out-migration, perhaps from the Gulf states. Where do you see a softer landing after the pandemic? I would say that things will change and things will stay the scene. To suppose that fundamental issues that we have not been able to tackle for forty and fifty and sixty s will suddenly change overnight I think is expecting too much unfortunately, but at the same time I think that we need to try and work at the edges of. So clearly I think we need to avoid rhetoric that leads plus colletion. We need to avoid confrontation because everybody will be affected the dubs. Demographics guns. Economy and so on so

We have been talking before last year in May but for the listeners have not had the chance. Listened to that podcast. We're GONNA make sure that episode awesome to our show notes. Why don't you just say a few words about who you are? And what total is Yeah Martin. Thanks for having me back on the show. I'm the founder and CEO of Ohio and tunnel is a connected streaming system for the home so it's a digital strength training machine that's versatile enough to support Every single movement that you would do on any machine and our weight room and comes with Multi Week Programming and Onscreen coaching guides. Our guys are members through their workouts. Every every step of the way it's Super Compact. It's compact enough to monster walls. It's compact enough to sit in a one bedroom apartment or or a home and And it super smart and intelligent. Ai In it that personalizes the workouts to user and and guides people through the work that so what would like typically experienced. Like if. I'm a user an ice pack. You know may gun through on morning and do my I work out. How would that apply so So the first thing is when you walk up to a tunnel you actually just looks like a TV mounted on wall but but vertically I end the arms tucked away so when you're not using it it's it's stowed looks really clean and sleek is when you walk up to it the first thing you do on still the arm so these arms often and they become adjustable seen all sorts of different exercises. I know there's a twenty four inch screen When you first create your account you know you do everything you do with a personal trainer. You'd Salsa Basic Steiger Age or your goals and then we take you through a quick strength test ought to find out how strong you are And that becomes the baseline that we use from that point that point forward and then you know what you'll do is you'll you'll select the program that you want to do and you know you have the option of doing a single day workout With one of our coaches so you you might take a coach and pick a twenty minute workout or for workout. Or you'll enroll in a multi week program. This is what most people actually do we were. We were grams oriented around specific goal. So we have programs for people who want to lose weight people who want to build muscle people who want to get better at specific sport. Like an example. We will retraining program for somebody's training for a five K. Five Ron. You don't actually become a better runner by running more you do it. You can read strength training and then once you step into the workout. We'll take you for warmup routine and then as we take you for every single strength. Training exercise tonal will automatically choose. How Much Weight? You should lift scored exercise. Assess how you're doing and then Decide whether it's time for you to lift more weight or less weight so so in essence. The is adopting every workout to you. In terms of the way the pacing to work. That's actually will speed up and slow down depending on on how you're doing. I even give you real time feedback right emotion elements of your arm. So it's it's pretty cool and Since we last talked. And that's I'm tonal had just launched a few months before that and what has happened since then what has changed. I think a lot of a lot of things have changed. I think when when we first started a lot of people would look at this thing and not sure what it was and now now we're in a position where where people look at this and they will have a tonal. Just tell us that. It's the most incredible piece of equipment if they've ever used and I think the the analogy I can use. It's like it's like one test Reduction of electric cars. I think when I was a kid when you looked electric cars they were always. They're always like the all environmentally friendly alternative to gasoline cars. But you're serious about cars. You had to go gasoline. And now Tesla has proven that an electric car cannot perform a gasoline card every single dimension. And that's exactly. What tonal is tonal? Doesn't rely on big metal place in gravity. We actually generate or she using electricity And electromagnetics and just repel cars or trains or in Donald Generate enough force. The pick you up off the ground or give you a really really serious workout and I think before we. We launched people who would see. The product would be impressed by now that it's people's homes and more and more people hearing. We're starting to get this this reputation of being a superior way to strength train. The resistance is more pure the spotter which automatically adjusts the way. If you're struggling you push yourself harder. Va I which selects the wage for you. Opt To push yourself harder. The guidance is is really is really great. Because you're getting a crush routine every day And so I think that that reputation is starting to to proceed us community has really grown become very vibrant. And I think that's all great very exciting. And you mentioned that initially customers didn't quite know what to make for Assad and do you think that was more phone Education thing that you had to explain the product more and you had to put up that reputation like you mentioned like something that you had to change around the product experience fall for your users. It was all about. It was all about education and about letting people experienced thing that was new and different than what they'd seen before you know when you walk into a gym and you look at our traditional cable crossover weight machine or you look at Iraq dumbbells. I think we all know what those things do. I think with tonal people. Look at it and you know it's really small. It's leak and and it's easy to underestimate because pretty until that same person. Twenty minutes later is sitting on a puddle on the ground puddle of sweat on the ground you know out of breath the thing we hear most often from people as it exceeded my expectations. This is way harder than I ever expected him. The resistance is more pure. It's smooth and in in the beginning. You know it it. You know people look at this thing. They don't is under skeptical? And then after you know after. The community began digging gave momentum. I think we started to see See The tide turn.
Dose of Leadership
Answering "Life's Great Question" with Tom Rath
"Ready for this fascinating conversation with the one. Only Tom Rath where we talk about his brand new book. Life's great question. Discover how you can contribute to the world here on doe solution the Tom. I'm so excited to have you back on the show. Welcome back to those leadership. Thanks so much. It's really good to be with you again. I was doing the homework for the interview. You and I like guy he was on my show. If you would ask me someone said Yeah. It was on my show three years ago. Two years ago it was five years ago and I was like. Oh my gosh it just seems it's just amazing. How fast time go right? It really does well. I'm so excited. I remember the conversation we had and I listened to it again and I just remember How Fun it was the talk with your of been a big Fan of big support of obviously strength finders? Just been a huge impact on so many people's lives and just let you know I've In the coaching the clients that have had since we've had the conversation how many times people will reference strength finders. You've made a significant impact with your body of work. I mean I'm sure you get all the time but I just want to let you know so many times in the last five years since we last talk. I've referenced material. People have talked about at your materials. So so congratulations on the impact. You're making thanks so much. I sincerely appreciate it. Well so we got this new book coming out right and MM-HMM I took I'm anxious to read it but I took some of the The profile questions to set up my own profile. I love how you do. Do that. How you can buy the book you get a code and you can find out how you can best contribute to the world? I love this idea this concept because as I've gone through this show what a keep going back to when I find myself on my own journey. Coaching others that really are obligations to make the campsite better than we found it. Stealing ailing from the boy scouts. Their will but but isn't that. Isn't that really what it boils down to is. How can we contribute best right? And that's why I'm excited to read this book. Yeah it's at one thing I've noticed recently as it's almost easier in there so many things trying to pull US inwards ADIA focus on on self and your own situation your own personality and your own development but yet what really matters in the end of the day at the end of a career or lifetime frankly is that we feel proud about what we've put back into the world now what we've taken out of and so that's where almost all of this recent work focuses focuses. How can we help people to do more meaningful things for others to? They're working a lot of this work on this. Most recent book really started with a quote that I've always been inspired by Dr King said Life's most persistent and urgent question is what are you doing for others and an emmy sound like a big picture existential question. But I've tried to ask myself that question almost every day over the last few years and I finally ask that question are early on in the day and I- Orient my efforts around things that I'm doing that will make a difference for other people a week from now a month now a generation from now I end up doing more meaningful work throughout the day. That hopefully is more service to my community and the light bulb turn for me. When I've started pursuing this leadership path breath more intentionally was when I got past the head noise when I got past my limiting beliefs when I got past my imposter syndrome things really clicked and went into overdrive when I said hey you know. Leadership is really about. How do I add value in every transaction? How do I contribute? How do I and then it removed myself in all my kind of internal noise away from the equation right and so it became external channel? Like how can I advise the situation authentic genuine way. Not In a way where. I'm going to do something so that you can get something you you're gonna I'm GonNa get something I'm from you right. It's easy to fall into that trap too but to authentically contribute. That's when it really starts to turn the corner right. Yeah I think we've got to move past the transactional transactional piece of a deer point. It's because it's a way to Orient your day. Where if you're doing something that you're proud of you do? We need to be able to kind of see. The benefit has rather people because that gives us more motivation to continue to do more and give more back. And you know the piece that I didn't realize until I got deeper deeper into the research and work here is that When you really can orient big parts of your day around what? You're you're doing for others it also makes your day's just easier and less stressful. Because you're not as worried about what people are thinking of you or what might happen to you or your unconditional conditioner. Your own situation and I've had some conversations recently where I've talked to friends about well.

Steps TO BUILDING YOUR MARKET AND SELLING MORE
"Did you sell when you were in Drexel's well started off selling car wash controller so like you know stick your car to the full service car wash and and it moves through the tunnel and all the right machine Sheen's come on at the right time they'll that was the computer I sold wanted that out and who would you sell it to gas stations or car wash those full service is car Washington there's there's a lot of dealers in that market that sell to those car washes in their local areas so those are my main customers did you like it yeah it was great I got the same benefit that my Stepdad got I I got to work from home I had a lot of flexibility I would get up early in the morning the guy I work for taught me really well he taught me how to smile and dial and how to how to get focused on it be good at it and be affected so I could get up in the morning have my a coffee start making my calls and heck by noon I was done the only thing I had to do in the afternoon was processing any orders I had taken and you know no paperwork and stuff like that and did really well and and they'll cool and what was the impetus to start your own gig young company will long story short I did well with that and then ended up getting hooked up with a software company in the energy business here in Houston it was a start up that had this Israel unique software that we were selling to gas exploration companies so now I go from seven to these you know car wash dealers are pretty small call mom and pop businesses to selling million dollar software packages two billion dollar corporations right a whole different deal so lot of learning there but ended up doing pretty well with it and we grew I hired sales people and we ended up needing a tool to keep track of things right make sure we're staying in touch with the right people at all these oil Oh companies you know very complex sale cycle with lots of influencers and all that and so we were using act way back when you know that was Umbrian Adia these kind of things back then and it was great but then we merged with a competitor and I inherited this Sir far-flung sales team where some of them were out at Denver where our corporate headquarters in Houston mom worked for Hump from home and other places and keeping them all in sync up in the same act database was a real nightmare this was right win salesforce had just I come on the market they were brand new and so we thought wow that sounds perfect for us it'll be the internet we won't have to sink anymore everything will be real time awesome it was good in those ways but it wasn't as mature as it is now and we missed a lot of the functionality -ality that act hat and so so we that's what we just decided to do is start the first online version Anna Act that's what sales next was initially I remember trying to use multi user act it was it was a great tool for an individual sales rep but right out great for a team and as an individual but then it's on your Europeans see so if anything goes wrong you have to back it up you have if it gets corrupt you're hosed examined the old days of software right yeah those before they even knew what the cloud was yeah and so how do you sell it today is it do you have a salesforce or is it more more of a marketing automation type sale advertise and then demo and close yeah I mean it's a lot of that we do a little bit of both really so you you know Pete lots of people come to our website they see our ads and and things like that at the come to our website and sign up for free trial and we they play around with it and we do demos and stuff like that but then also we're out there you know banging on doors and pursuing sort of strategic accounts and markets as well and what do you see sales people doing wrong today I mean you know it's funny thing is it hasn't really changed the it's the same things that we were doing wrong back when I was online sales person you're not doing enough prospecting you're not filling the funnel and you're not following up enough that's the two main things today where we see the most low hanging fruit is you know in any sales organization right you go your especially in outbound sales organization where you're cold calling or knocking on doors or going doing a lot of networking or trade shows you know you're going through a lot of leads you're talking to a lot of people and you only close maybe twenty twenty five thirty percent of so that means eighty or seventy percent of all the people you engage with don't become customers and most sales teams even today basically basically throw them away you know they're not doing anything to stay in touch with those people because they're so focused on who am I going to close this month right yeah and and that's that so many of the things that we sell our event based meaning that you cultivate a need and a desire and you have to be there at that time that its surface yeah a lot of education a lot of persuasion a lot of transfer of ownership and that those long long time gaps it's easy to forget them it's easy to deprioritize them right and some of it we should but in the more ambitious just one of us should be able to do both yeah well it's a great point you're bringing up especially in a technology sale of some sort where there is a lot of that education that goes on boy you invest so much in creating that awareness and need in the customer's mind and if they choose not to act right now for all kinds of reasons could be budget could be things that you're not in control of but you've made that huge investment so if all you do is just kind of stay in contact with them so that when the time's right for them they they call you then that's magic and now today with with technology like ours and others you can automate that right where they're just get an email from you once a month that's kind of given them the opportunity to tell you the time is right if if I ignore orpheum emails from you and then also on the sixth one I download the PDF or watch your video or something that's me saying times right you should call me and one of the best pieces of sales advice I ever got was from a manager who said you know you got the the elephant hunters over there that wasn't really me and then he got the guy who chases everything and nobody has time for that I try and focus on the ones that can and will close and as many any of those as you can sure in on that I that stuck with me because the elephant hunting too risky and working working eighty hours a week doesn't really scale right especially you like to hunt right I know you you WanNa you WanNa let lecture sales people like you say just focus on the ones who have a strong need now enter closeable and let technology take care of you know keeping them in front of a much larger audience than they ever could on the phone or manual though and that's it I think today with technology and you know we have just the opposite problem that we had fifteen years ago where we had no data today okay we have too much data right and even when I got started in sales we had zero data you could by phone books wasn't the Internet it was hard finding the main number never mind somebody's number

Is WeWork's Business Model Viable?
"Today we're going to look at the complex topic week which is easily work at viable business model be if you've been following. Actually the news lately you so that we work is pretty much anywhere and why. I don't like to cover things that really into the news because there is a lotta noise around. It's very hard to make sense of it there. Everyone when denning opinion like what's going on. I won't do really highlight. I flew points and really give respective again just because I think it is a lot of noise right now so St John's is a viable business model. It's not an for several reasons now. Let's go point by point to over a few things that we might want to look at when it comes to to we work now we work was at ease was a private company actually still a company that will strain to actually get a go through an IPO was trying to become a public company and the one thing which is interesting interesting is that we work adjust two thousand eighteen. According to several kinds of valuations at our company was worth more than forty billion dollars which which is a lot breath so now one question getting comes to mind Isa are we actually going through a private bobble in terms of private companies education because what's up rent now. It seems that at least in two thousand nineteen the company's got listed as they didn't manage to actually we have a successful appeals and actually manage to go to a really excitement of the market doc it around those companies now. What are the reasons behind it and you know when talking about companies that I feel I'm thinking about companies like Uber or lift or other. There are other companies that are really field this year now. The the the party said I mean look at the the we work financials the one thing that you know this race that of course company now but he arrived from two thousand eighteen eighty two to nineteen with talking about the first Amancio Manso year but this time he also improved. It's expensive quite substantially there things to take into account. If if we work was going to wipe with buzzy the numbers you can imagine that we wouldn't have oldies noise that that he's right now and one thing is also about timing timing timing. It's betty white important as you imagine it can really make or break a company and in in this year that there are the worry about recession that increasing freezing you you can imagine that for a company that could afford to actually go through an IPO without having a viable business model l. A. Becomes very hard when you go through a decision at his video especially when your primary customers are companies that actually are stuffed upset if we go through a decision would be the first companies to actually suffered from it. It's very important also delighted that we work as a really so you know improving its enterprise customers which we're getting that those might seek if we go through a recession but at the meantime on the other end if we think we interbike customers by be using we work as a really an expansion buckner so we'd ally on we work as enterprise company because we're trying to expand the operation with one free since I'm just thinking in terms of me me as a as a potential enterprise customer we work so instead of relying on internal resources and expanding geographically because he may be a recent too risky ASCII because then it becomes harder to to to to cat space and stuff we we use we work as a partner for so again imagine that if we both rotation diseases diseases. I sorta viable which will get cut so again recession. He's hard because for especially for a business model which hasn't proved viable yet yet. It's it's very hard another aspect that you know this when you go through the. We Work Appeal our attempt IPO because it was if you following the news right now you know that the company has withdrawn so far at least delaying the ideal so in might reconsider near enough in a few months things are stopped workout free since death thinking fire quite a quite a few employees but one thing that you know these when you go through a dealer of the as one which is the forum that companies as companies to meet when they after will probably could tell there to meet these form to the SEC has the Security Exchange Commission. What is that. There are a few quite a few buzzwords so so there are many things that we work is is doing that again if the company was a viable business model if we were in a timing where things were working properly. We were not going through are probably the people were not expecting a recession to come. Those things will be steep paths. I think again for many passwords you might use if on the other end you have Saudi auty business that there's nothing that can save you a if you look at the financial companies like starbucks that had somebody uses the buzzwords him in the culture of the company and in many cases companies themselves are caught who are really cultures. Really you know they really try to emphasize. This is when Bet Katcher dating. That's what makes them special even again. Companies are businesses that make money. They need to make money consistently so fittings things had come out to mind when we go to the one we worked. His first world. We work is trying to really redefine a new sort of model which is which combining goals space as now. If you know how commercial real estate works you know that usually what happens is that you ran an office our RSP's commercial space for your company and all you do is really you pay the rent and then free since the end of the year you might be the so called the Camman on Adia maintenance fees. which really are the shared the shared expenses that that the you know the lender the landlord might anticipate for for the commercial tenants? Annan's Gadiya switched. Dan can be spread for for the Commercial you know Florida Florida the the the people renting those commercial spaces at the end of the year depending on the kind of contract that you have of course you can pay the quote the pulmonary maintenance in different ways but again these these important for the landlord in which is a running business because he can actually get back a few of the of a did the expenses that he had on no commercial property and it can be also used as a leverage when you have a contract with a commercial tenant what happens is a union see something like okay. I'm going to reduce the KOMO Nadia maintenance fees. If you WANNA be free since then I amount of money now we were starting to redefine this space by actually adding more to it so that a a company sparked of the we were community that will be using the co working of a company actually would be a retainer so be a monthly Italy fee a subscription fee and that's where the space has a Saturday's comes to police now if we were also voted species said listen if this is. GonNa turn are now to be a viable model. I mean we we're going to look at it in in the instagram and I think it's fine you know people arguing whether accompany bunny can come up with these new analogy and just get we did. I think he can if he has a viable business model again here. The point these I is that the company is in bad timing and in these bad timing where we're going through a recession it's using up the bats words and it's not showing showing a viable business model because again those same words that we're seeing today that were used a back in two thousand sixteen seventeen when we work was considered one of the hottest companies around and valued over forty billion dollars. I think what's making huge difference. He's the fact that the company right now is a very bad timing go there are also that aspects like of the corporate governance had the fact that the recent the the the founder CEO Newman as been having a little control and managing teams out not transparently from from the way it was you know leasing space to the company and also the fact that the company Bunny at Bush's including each for technology company even though again we work a main attempt is really to form a commissioner real estate contract which usually again it's it's a it's simple contracting something which is more on on on Saturday space where you know it's common in software as a service speeds in all the other services industry that we have today in in the in the after throughout the Internet the area where you can just fight several kinds of surveys you leverage on data technology another savviest easiest to actually have have the company spot from being something on on a daily basis now aiding said. Did they really again another another keeping the thing it's about the addressable market where the company argues that had he said these these these market that which can be I think over over three years or something like that tight remember. The exact number is not the when he comes to this will markets cadets beak big question mark when Gumbiner essay these going to be these album is going to be the market in ready the how how do you even know because that depends many variables and you can be really sick as possible or you can dream big but hey at the end of the bench about how economy is going to evolve and you know. It's very a hard to predict so again. is we work a viable business model. It's not and it's not because is not showing yet a bottom line which which it's going to work. ability heats a it's really a bad timing where the company still using buzzwords in a time where you need to be more really sick we're going through and so there are more people which are skeptical about what's going on any future customer base which is made of startups of course the risk is that you're gonna be the you're going to be the first company which is GonNa four once the recession comes and then if you know we asked whether we work is a fraud. I mean if we look at the business itself. Of course it's real business if we city whether the numbers are if we rely on the numbers they gave plus in the financial statements with these these further not something that you know there's going to be an investigation or something things will will you know would would be figuring out right now. It's really understanding that when you don't have a viable business model and you're going through a recession and and you're keep using the male that you'll be using in the past to Pamper your valuation a private market which is less than spying compared to market reasoning to change your mindset need to make sure that you understand that probably market it takes a different approach Yuguang through our session unique understand the context so really for me. This is a lack of understanding on the context right now so that we went through recession understanding that at the same model that used used to get to a fifty billion dollars relation is not the same to actually keep their valuation and five there and that actually when you have a viable business model. It's very eddie easy to argue whether the company is going to work them much or more
The Big Picture
'Downton Abbey,' 'Breaking Bad,' and Why TV Is Still Jealous of Movies
"Chris. You're here along with Amanda because you know a lot about television and Amanda and I are for a little bit out on television sort of as a general rule. I'm post. TV POST TV separate succession. Now there are some television shows that I love. I started to watch when this weekend that I think is incredibly well made which is called unbelievable but I was just home with my mom for a little while and she while she's a stranger to cable news but she adorable still gets a lot of her news from the newspaper so two days later she'll be like. Did you hear about Joe. Biden and I'll like what what do you mean. Did something new happens you know. Did you hear about this phone. Call and that's just what you did with unbelievable where you were like. I'm breaking to you guys that there's this show well no now. I admit I am one one week late and you've already covered the show on the WOK yeah. We've already covered the sh the show on the site. I just didn't have the time to get to you. I hear you I'm seeing all these movies but one thing that is interesting that it's happening right now is is that I even though the just happened and even though TV is having this incredible boom time I feel like TV is still a little jealous of the movies and we know that because Downton Tanabe rather than comeback as an eight part miniseries has decided to become a full length feature film and the people said. Yes they said Yes to the tune of thirty three million dollars a lot of money for an extension of the Downton Abbey University was a show that was popular and a phenomenon sort of when it started. I believe the first episode of the Hollywood respective podcasts was a recap of the Dow naby premier guess which is just amazing what times past its Niche Butler's Butler's and and and you know that's a show that I liked and I really did you recap Amanda you recap what an amazing time capsule of our life on the Internet in creating culture and now it's a fulling feature feature film which is something that I think twenty years ago it had happened you would have said Downton Abbey really grew up and stepped up to the big leagues in this case. I wonder how you guys feel about what what it means to extend what was once a broadcast. TV Show into movie platform and also like why why this movie work. Why did it work so well. I have a couple of sites and the answer answer of why to turn it into a feature film is money which worked out because it made thirty three million dollars we had a great piece on the ringer last week by writer named Kate Loyd who's based in London and it was he's about the downtown Abbey Economy essentially in how the show changed both tourism in the UK and like she went to a lot of fancy locations and like talk to British these people but also how it changed the British TV industry and down abby the show. Was this wakeup call I think for people in the UK okay that people would from other parts of the world would watch when these costume dramas it was kind of a revival of the costume drama and also had a finance the shows so that they could me distributed around the world and so the piece argues that you know everything from peaky blinders to howards end to all of the things that we now consume and treat as part of the television firmament at least the latest generation of them are a result of Downton Abbey success right that show relaunch yeah Adia so in that way. It's not that surprising to me that it did while because it was like a legitimate phenomenon and we've lived with it for a long time in maybe season six. I wasn't as great as season one but it made a lot of money in a lot of people liked watching it. It's short relief to because the two other big releases over the weekend and that it beat out were ad Astra which was covered at length on this podcast last week and as a movie that I would recommend people see and Rambo last blood. Did you catch up with that Chris. I didn't see I saw ad Astra instead of Rambo because this was not playing anywhere near me. Oh that's a shame why was that I woke neighborhood for you. so neither of those films which are very male centric stallone doesn't play well in. Philly yeah that's a good point you'd think he'd be in every theatre getting but I guess partially one of the the reasons why down succeeded so well is because a lot of women saw this movie and it was the primary opportunity for women at checkout films one week after hustlers dominated the box office and sensing a trend here if you like this happens four five times a year when people are like there are movies for women as well yeah. I think that's true also float yes women see movies. Rah Rah route whatever old people really see movies and the theatres is there is nothing better to do with your time if you got a mom or Gramma Ma than to take them and see the Downton Abbey. That is just wholesome entertainment for everyone so I think that that is as important. The age is as important as the gender breakdown on this one. Let's let's just very quickly. Even though Chris has not seen the downton movie talk about what's good about the downs and movie you and I attempted to recap the film for Chris via slack last week. You feel like we did a good job. Ah Yeah I think so recognized all the names. All the actions made sense I just did they didn't really come together in a sort of visual sentence for me so that is actually a notable spoke to Michael Angler about this. It is a little bit of Downton on steroids. You know the theme music is amplified in such a way that maybe they had three hundred more brass instruments. Mintz played playing the theme song. There's a lot of drone shots of Downton Abbey. It is it is a a muscular rise version of this upstairs downstairs costume drama the film itself did strike me though I think you may have originally said this to me as just one long episode of Downton Abbey to me it was like a Christmas special sel which they do in the UK and I think it was the season two Christmas special of Downton Abbey which is when Matthew and Mary finally get together and like kissing the snow outside outside of the side of the House I would say it's on par with the Christmas special except for like to party set-pieces instead of one as you said and fancier dresses addresses and I guess there's like a first episode climax halfway through the movie and then a second episode kind of bringing everyone home. The thing is downstairs to get into some hijinks and then there's ramifications upstairs. It's crazy what happens on almost like it's upstairs downstairs I thought it was an enjoyable movie and I'm not surprised that it was successful. I'm surprised it was successful. It was also the biggest movie in the history of focus features which just fascinating I have spoken to some people who worked worked on this movie and they have when they acquired the rights to release this movie. They said we have our IP. We have our version of superhero movie and focus features. That's what I was. GonNa say really leans into that older audience that you're talking about the identify women as their audience much more clearly and this is a part of the same strategy so I wouldn't say necessarily the Ad Astra had this problem but I do think that it is near impossible to sell anything anymore without some pre existing kind of awareness of what you're getting when you walk into it just because there's so many options for people that if you just sorta like here's a movie about butlers and rich people story. Michelle dockery people are going to be like I don't know but if it's something that they have this decade long relationship leashes ship with if they have the kind of extra screen relationship that they have they cared about and if there is like I was I was watching a lot of linear television this week because I was with my mom. We were watching the Ken Burns documentary. There was down Abbey stuff sandwich. Every episode of the Ken Burns Documentary Music talking to the country music to let you know it's coming out. Here's the history of the show. Here's a recap of everything that happened. Here's the making of the show like they actually did their push. It just just happened on public television. We didn't see it as much necessarily as like Robert Downey junior driving around in an Audi with a Samsung phone pushing vendors do you think that this is now now a sort of MCI -ation of Downton or is this just a one off thing that they struck gold on this one movie or is there going to be another one have been teasing the sequel for weeks. Now that's yeah yeah they've been talking about how the possibilities open and I think you know which is code for. Yes it will happen and they certainly leave the door open in the movie. Everyone is in in a happy place but more hijinks cannon sue and I'm sure well a Dan. I'm curious how far you can probably only take down into world war. Two 'cause post World War. Two I think all of those states just for their museums museums the economy economy of the upper class in the UK just breaks down and it's just not how upstairs downstairs doesn't really apply as much anymore the film kind of glances at the end to the how much longer can this go on which I thought was an interesting potential way to seal office equal in the end zone dunkirk what we'll talk about this more. Maggie Smith is in this movie Maggie Smith Chris do modify spoil Israel okay. I guess if you are really really strict about spoilers. Turn it off now. Even but Maggie Smith gives a speech that's kind of like a farewell speech but notably nothing actually conclusively happens to whether Maggie Smith math will be in future episodes of down nappy. TV show or something happens to her but then they're like. We'll see what happens yeah she could've done urge becomes iron man. It's incredible credibly. She defeats the end of the movie. It's wild. It's nineteen twenty seven in this movie that's right. They've got like twenty more years. Yeah okay. What's interesting to me about. This is is the movies in theaters. It's an extension of a television show there have been there's been the super sizing of TV shows into movie form a lot over the last year. This isn't the first first time it's happened. In the ninety. s we saw the kind of like met a rift commentary on things by having. Beverly hillbillies movies and Brady Bunch movies now what we have is just a more clear extension of the stories that originally told there was a dead movie earlier. This year was a between two ferns movie also released over the weekend which is not quite the same serialized television but is in the same tradition in a way away and then in October. We have a breaking bad movie called El Camino Dave Dina do this for a long time. They've been dying to get this kind of multiplatform storytelling going because of the amount of money there is if you can actually do what they wanted to do with dark tower where you can tell something that has has a feature presentation that maybe is the sort of the danger of the story but like you have other storylines going on TV and that you could actually create a like twelve month a year sport out of your story. That's why they want you know and now there are different things now.
