Hottest Stock On Wall Street: Struggling Video Game Store GameStop
"Hottest stock on wall street is a struggling video game store. You walk past in shopping malls game. Stop its share. Price has spiked over a thousand percent in recent days all because of amateur day traders who gather in a red forum. Mary childs is the co host of. Npr's planet money podcast and well talked with her. Hey mary hi. So i found myself up at ten o'clock at night texting with my kid brother about game stop stock and i realized i really need to know what is going on here. What's going on here so it starts in a place on the internet known as wall street. That's it's this forum on read it. We're all these day trader types. These non professionals get together and trade stock tips as well as memes and screengrabs of their trades and a ton of rocketship emojis. This places become really active since the start of the pandemic with people kind of trapped at home looking for something to do and back one of these reta traders started arguing for why everyone should buy game stop. This was a weird argument. This is an old mall brand with exposure to commercial real estate. It's not exactly natural by right now but that actually became part of the argument for why you should buy it because the argument against game stop made it a good stock to bet on because there was so much interest betting against it. All these big establish hedge funds were betting against it so that turned into this rallying. Cry that you know. We should take on big wall street and from there took off so the hedge funds are short selling it which is something that hedge funds do and then it takes a twist right yes. Basically these big hedge funds were betting that the shares would go down right. They were shorting it so to do that. They have to borrow the shares of the stock and sell it and if the price goes down then they can buy it back at. The lower price borrowed stock and pocket. That price difference but as price goes up. If they're wrong they have to go buy back that stock at new higher price and that leaves them vulnerable to if the price shoots up really fast then all of a sudden that's called a short squeeze and that's exactly what happened here. It kind of amplifies the effective and more so it makes sense. Inherently that big hedge funds might be able to move markets right. They have like billions of dollars but this is a case where small investors moved to the market. How did they manage to do that. Basically wall street bets has learned how to weaponize the tools that they're using so they're using options and functionally. You can buy options for way less money than you need to buy the actual stock so that means that you can take your pennies on the dollar and go play in the market. And the way that they're playing they found ways to lean on the banks that seldom the stocks to lean on these hedge funds in such a way that exploit the mechanics of options and that can amplify everything that doing and get the most bang for their buck. Mary what does this tell us about. How wall street works and who actually has power versus who. Maybe we assumed has power absolutely. This has all these kind of same stresses occupy wall street where people are saying these big hedge funds. Why should they get to control the stock market the systems rigged and this has been a weird way for people to forcibly. Take that back to up. End those structures and up that power dynamic so it's not clear to me where this ends up and certainly there are going to lose a lot more money than they necessarily have but at this moment it feels like popular opinion is a little bit more with wall street bets. Mary tiles is a co host of. Npr's planet. money podcast. Mary thanks so much thank you.

PM: Sweden's health officials misjudged new infection wave
"Though sweden's covid cases dropped drastically over the summer the country head still become somewhat of an international pariah some of its closest allies the other nordic countries turn their backs on the swedish experiment. This swedes didn't think it was necessary to have strict border. Controls and the. Swedes didn't think it was necessary to institute lockdown and that basically forced all the other governments of their neighbors to close borders with sweden it went to the extend that norway actually deployed the army to the borders with sweden which is really unprepared to deploy the army to help guard the borders to prevent plumbers stein crossings. And that's pretty astonishing for that part of the world. I mean one official in finland told me that they don't see sweden as a black sheep but they think of sweden as a different sheep. You know in this a polite way of saying they are. They are no really doing what we think needs to be done. When did swedish officials realized that they weren't doing what needed to be done. Tober numbers started going up again in sweden especially in stockholm and i think by november. They had a pretty pretty steep rise in infections. In hospitals started filling up again and the more started swelling. I spoke to the head of the stockholm hospitals for my article and he was very very worried. He you know. Swedes are pretty low. Key in the use of active but he said it was a very very serious situation. He said that hospitals were filling up. He said that people were dying. At an increasing rate. And he said that the growth was still at a level which was not really sustainable. The streets of sweden's capital or quiet. A second wave of covert is sweeping through stockholm. It didn't escape as authorities predicted. It would so in november. The swedish government changed course implementing restrictions. The rest of europe has had in place for months in a rare televised speech. Prime minister stephan lovin addressed. The people of sweden say on auto would some he basically said uh little. We got this. Summer and autumn is truly over people's health and lives are still endanger the dangerous increasing then the prefix undersold moreno hurston evac ed november man. This'll hell sodhi if food fall on the fodder forum burqa. He asked people to stay at home. He asked people to not engage in interactions. If there are necessary in order to reduce the spread of the virus and he served painted a very very bleak picture of the reality of swin new job. You dad two summers. I what they now have is a ban on all gatherings of eighth people in public. Which essentially meant that cinemas theatres and other such venues had to close down. Many of them did and they also banned sales of alcohol after ten o'clock so that means bars. We'll have to close around ten o'clock. What has dr technol- and the health said about these measures. Well that's interesting. you see. The measures the restrictive measures at the end of november were announced by the government not by the healthcare agency and when you go on their website and when you read their guidelines they explain outline the guidelines and then they say it was political bodies that made these decisions so i think there is a sense. That healthcare agency has been Overridden by the politician's a little bit because that restriction to ban gatherings of over eight people was not something they proposed initially but swedish health officials are still going against scientific consensus in another way. They're actively discouraging. The use of masks in public spaces homes. Nobody wears a mask except for individuals. Who want to to this very day. The public health agency and dr technol- chief epidemiologist are advising against wearing masks. Their rationale is if you wear a mask. You may not stick the social distancing rules and that's dangerous because the mosque not protect you. And the social distancing will so it's better to keep your distance you stay away from a person in a public space rather than you wear masks and you come close to them. What do all of these new measures mean for the swedish economy. The overall swedish economy is not doing great this year like everyone else. I mean the estimates of the central bank are that by early next year. Unemployment will go up to ten percent. That's quite a lot for sweden. So you know. The swedish economy is not doing well by any measure and certainly not doing better than comparable countries that did have lockdowns especially not in the neighborhood. If you look at norway finland and denmark. They are not doing worse than sweden. Why do you think the swedish experiment failed. And what do you think it says about balancing personal freedoms with health it's important to preserve freedom and keep the economy going. But you have to have a plan. You have to have targeted measures. Then you have to keep a handle on the virus and think. Sweden failed to do that. Sweden failed to institute the initial serve circuit breaker lockdown in the beginning then twin failed to really improve. Its contact tracing in testing systems. And they didn't really device targeted measures. That would be able to keep this disease in check. And ultimately there is no actual zero-some game in terms of either you be virus or be economy. I think when you let the virus run amok economy will crash. There is no example whatsoever that i can think of and i've been reporting about this for ten months now over country that let the virus loose and savings economy. That just didn't happen anywhere in the world.

The Wired Homeschool
Not All Online Schooling is Homeschooling
"Despite what some parents doing school online is not the same as homeschooling. Hello and welcome to the wired home school. i'm your host. John wilkerson and before you turn this podcast off because you're a home schooler. That uses online curriculum. Let's clarify a few things. Because i have recommended online curriculum to you. If you've listened to this podcast. And i've recommended it in social media. So what exactly am i talking about. Well it's back up a little bit at the beginning of twenty. Twenty education suddenly got transformed because schools across the world. Were shut down. Because of this teeny tiny little single cell organism and i would say home schoolers for the most part were unaffected. Co-ops field trips and social activities. And probably some other enrichment experiences. Were put on hold or cancelled but the way we educated our kids. I don't think really was affected because why we decided to educate our children at home also hadn't changed. Nevertheless bomb bartered by memes online from celebrities and micro influencers about the realities of homeschooling moms holding. Glasses of wine joked about teaching algebra and teachers posted about lecturing to students in their pajamas. The teachers in pajamas and the students in pajamas. We're all home. Schoolers now was heard far and wide but was really true. Is it still true. Let's think about this right now. In the united states there are in person and online classes for public and private school students. Also some parents have opted for one hundred percent virtual classes and have declared themselves as homeschooling. There are some key differences between homeschooling. And what. I call online schooling and it probably isn't obvious to parents who were forced to do school at home. One of the first things you want to think about here is at home schoolers. Choose to educate their children at home for various reasons they could be religious reasons. Maybe the parents want to have a minimalist life style and move into an rv drive around the country here in the united states or in europe and home. Schooling is a better option. Maybe they're not happy with the way their culture is represented in the majority of the public school curricula. There could be a number of different reasons that they chose to home school. Maybe they have an aspiring actor or actress or musician. Choose to homeschool because it's more flexible and it's just the better option for them and going to public school. Here's the other thing about home. Schoolers is we have to pay for our online curriculum and usually we pay our school taxes on top of that apparent that's in public or private school. Maybe not so much a private school but certainly a public school. They don't have to pay an additional fee for that online component. It comes with a package if you will. How about this home schoolers. Don't take attendance. We're pretty much always home schooling and if we want to take a day off if we want to change our schedule because home schoolers aren't usually bound by schedule. There's a cat. There's a few caveats to that. We do what we need to do. We're kind of always homeschooling home schoolers choose their curriculum. And i think this is one of the big things here if i send my child to public school and by the way a have sent one of my children in public school this year. I don't get to choose his curriculum. The school district chooses at the teacher. Chooses that me if i want him to use one particular math curriculum another one. I don't get that choice if i want him. Taught science from one certain world view as opposed to another. I don't get that choice if my child goes to school and this whole schedule thing man. Is that something to get used to monday. Through friday to report the school this block of hours. And that's that's when school is done whereas a home schooler if you wanna wait until ten o'clock or do your schooling in the evening because that's more convenient for you. You can do that if you want to do school on the weekend over the summer over holidays while you're on vacation these are all choices that you get to make

Coronavirus in France: Curfews to come into force in several cities
"Let's begin here in Europe as cases of Corona virus continue to rise across the continent governments have been doling out new restrictions from a citywide curfew in Paris in seven other French cities to right here in London, which will move into high alert level on the traffic light system. That's already looking like a speed bump to progress a few short days after it was implemented earlier this week we. Heard from Mongols Health and science correspondent nets. Dr To Chris Smith and he explained why lockdowns may cub infection rates but are really in some sense just delaying the inevitable. I am skeptical and the reason I'm skeptical I think is an information deficit. I haven't actually seen the case made for. If we do this, this happens if we do this, this happens and this is how certain we are behind these numbers. Remember it's only a while ago. That someone said we're going to shop pubs at ten o'clock at night, and this is going to reduce cases. This is going to reduce transmission. Yes. It will reduce transmission in the pub but what models and maths equations don't foresee is the predictable unpredictability of people, which is they then go out of the pub in the street mass transmission out there are back to someone else's place mentality with a whole bunch of of takeout and far more. Transmissions in that setting. So I think on the one hand if you just the question would lockdown translate into fewer cases on say, yes. If you then the questions about differently, what are the long term repercussions of this does this actually translate into a long term difference in the trajectory difference in outcome well, more people die later, just not today those are the sorts of questions we need to see set out so that we can all be. In the decision making because at the moment is coming across as a bit of some some people with big brains of said this, and this is what we're gonNA do based on some other input from some economists and I don't think he's transparent enough and I think is now is critical more than ever to take the public along for the journey to because that is missing at the moment morale is falling support is wavering, and if we're GonNa make these things, work evidence proves to us we have to have everyone on board onside an all acting together decisively otherwise, we would just fiddling while Rome Burns.

Now it has run on to do well a one to one and you know I'd I'd have my first target hit. I am still along with tried united such a such A. Tiny position the toddler with, but markets are starting to move slyly bitcoin. Now, ten, thousand, seven, hundred, non different of course, low lost weight down to a low of ten, thousand, three, hundred and seventy-five up to the weekly chart right now there is another rejection candle it's not the most bullish candles in the most bearish channel everything I have said lost wake is very much still live to die tapping that I gotta get US above eleven thousand, two hundred really to see this trend continue. Progressing Hi this could potentially see US high low On the daily by Snyder's lawyers all loss week, ten, three, seven, five if we would break up now through ten, thousand, nine, hundred, sixty three that would be the first of the higher highs in this trend. Now, I will still hold out for eleven to or might be trading on the way off to that weekly wise well closed down but only one. percent closing at ten, thousand, six, hundred, seventy, four dollars represents by role as has been relatively Saad wise move onto a theory of knowledge is also had awake the didn't do all that well down one point full three percent again, not much really going on and what can the charts tell me well a guy on a break up above three seventy, one goal. That way we would have allies and I hire Hawk confirmed in there were three, hundred, fifty, four dollars and seventy three cents right now not looking too much is going on one of the big movies however has been next I'll pay of six point five percent yesterday closing the week out well off yet it was up closer to twenty four point seven cents up one point, eight, seven percent and today to the dot as well. It's up two point one, one percent where twenty five dollars and three cents at. Tell you what does inau speed of movement is just straight up in the air right now not really that tribal unless you're looking at boost trades in which case high. Be Onto something there. It keeps on pushing on the first autopsy tend to really push into that's uptrend as did break up through the high of twenty four point. Five cents. When they have a high low and I hire some extra thirty lodging it up more than in the US thus five. Come to Bitcoin cash look it sitting at two hundred and twenty two point. One five percents to die the loss wake down three point six percent closing at two hundred twenty, one dollars, five cents eight still remains one of the average shots out there. But I'll tell you what we get above two, thirty, four, nautical 235. and. We will have a high. At a higher hard to go with that. So beekeeping laugh that the wake last week we did see lot Quinn actually closed up. One point three full percent because the wake up at forty, six dollars and seventy three cents not so much more to speak of really on that John. A couple of weeks a couple of all sorts on that if we can get ourselves about forty dollars fifty, we will have a high low in the higher higher, the home market starting to look like this. Is Ever be as we can get ourselves above one eight. Hundred, seventy cents will have a high heart a guy with that.

Really to be honest with you there. While the NAS looking shots currently out there in play at the mummies cod Donna and the reason I say that is because we have a very clear potential. Day at potential, high or low, and that highlight comes in the form of two point, nine, seven cents I want to see a break above ten point seven. Ten point seven cents gives us a very clear high or low in high high, which will sustain hopefully progressed highs as progressive high highs and more upside lost weight would add four, point, three, six percent. We are starting to gain a little bit of momentum were non twenty, nine, three cents two point seven point four percent on the day to die dowse fires. Trends Guy Look bonds as one of those trends at ease in motion does look strong and the last couple of days is put on a good six six percent does.

U.K. leader tightens up COVID restrictions as virus surges back
"Prime Minister Boris Johnson has set out a raft of new corona virus restrictions which could continue. Into next spring or even summer but many have criticized Westminster for sending out muddled messages at a time when communication and unity around the issue is desperately important. Terry's destiny. The political journalist and author joins me on the line now, Terry Good morning to you and thanks for coming on. Now, it's quite unusual for the prime minister to address the nation directly. But this is the third time Johnson's done it, and at least one newspapers dubbed him a pound shop Churchill. What was the tone of the speech? Was He trying to be Churchillian? I think he was trying to repeat. This was a scripted thing. He was trying to rein in his natural sort of flamboyant tendencies if you like if you watched it, you could almost see or since he had his fists in front of him and he kept moving his hands and and almost trying to stop himself again. So I, think he was trying to stick. To a script, but it was it sounded like the speech of somebody who was trying to persuade those who were still very skeptical that things like more mosque wearing when necessary at one point he said he was deeply spiritually reluctant to bring in more restrictions. Now, you might question how much how deep Boris Johnson's general spiritualism goes, but he certainly is somebody who doesn't normally like. To Stop People doing things that they want to do. So it was very much he was saying I know you probably don't want to have to do this. You don't want to have to have more restrictions but I'm afraid you're going to have to and I think one of the things that surprise me given how much build up there had been. Over the last couple of days to the announcement, the done I in the House of Commons. And then on television last night is how little he actually did having sent out the government's chief medical officer, the chief scientist to tell us how serious this wasn't a show us all sorts of ominous graphs, forecasting huge rises in number of cases and numbers of hospitalizations, and then to have Cobra meeting. Then to speak to all the other nations have a cabinet have a House of Commons statement. He didn't actually announce very much even the some of the papers of described this as both barrels and A. Strict, me things these are really measures at margin. What are they in fact? What are the new restrictions? So the news stations having been told at the beginning of September that we should all go back to the office where we could The suggestion is now that people should work from home where they can, which has after all been the advice over the last several months and many people were still quite reluctant to go back into offices He is bringing in a ten. PM. Curfew in pubs and restaurants. So you will have to leave a pub or bar or a restaurant often by ten o'clock at the latest. and. That's going to be apparently quite more strictly enforced. The fines will increase for not wearing a mask, not obeying rules when you're told to and they again to bring in also more mask-wearing more widely say for instance, if you are in public restaurant the rule until now you haven't had to wear a mask at all but now you will have to wear one when you're not actually sitting down table. Eating or drinking and other things will be postponed for instance, like the reopening of sports grounds, and there's been a big outcry about that because many people hoping to get sports, grounds and other big venues back to opening
Solvable
Wildfire Ignition is Solvable
"Right. Now, if I look out my window, I, see a very Brown's guy. It looks like it's twilight but you know it's ten o'clock in the morning and it should be a bright and sunny grew up in California I'm Californian for almost my entire life. And you know I have many graduate students in my lab at Stanford that come here from all over the place and they sort of assumed that it's normal. And I had to tell him now I mean I don't remember this ever when I was growing up I mean you'd hear about. Fires every once in a while on the on the news but it certainly in the last couple years has become a completely regular thing. So I can certainly understand your eagerness to to help solve this problem, solve ables about how you're GonNa do it what's your solvable for dealing with these fires? Many many millions of gallons of retardant. So used every year right the iconic red stuff you see being dropped from planes. And that's really only ever used reactively. So once a fire has started. Our main approach is trying to stop them before they start. Now one of the limitations that we're trying to address is if you want to go and pre treat areas where you know fires are going to start. One of the primary limitations of the current hardens that they don't stay where you put. A high wind or heavy do is enough to wash the retardants off the vegetation. So they stopped working off. So what we sought to do was to to not create a new retardant let's say 'cause we're using the same active fire retarding agent but instead tweaking the performance additives so that the retarded stays on the vegetation. Throughout the duration of the fire season. So you can spray one time in June. Let's say and have protection against fire starts. All the way through until the rainy season comes. So can you describe this stuff? What's it like if you touch it how does it feel? It's not quite a lot of people think of Jello and they think of a gel in it's not thick like that. It looks Kinda like cream really So what we developed in my lab improves the adherence. So more of what you spray actually sticks on the vegetation and it improves the durability. So it's really only once you get into the ratings season that the materials will wash away and simply biodegrade on the soil. Yeah. The evidence in I mean you know it works yes. So we did pilot scale studies to test ourselves and we tried to burn it It was actually. Kinda fun because you know we would do the experiments and and see the fire would not actually ignite even through extensive weathering. So we rain to half an inch on it and let it sit in the environment for six weeks. The treated grass, it wouldn't burn. So some of the folks that we're working with started just drawing funny faces in the grass with the with a torch because even if you took a torch to, it wouldn't ignite. Wow. Then we were able to step it up and actually do some full scale pilot studies in and treated a number of roadside segments in southern, California many of them are small but every one of these ignitions requires crews to go out and put him out. So they use a lot of resources that take a firefighter time that they could be spending doing things like controlled burns. And we reported that they were zero fires in the treated areas Eric, this targeted intervention, right? You don't need to treat the whole forest. You just go where the fires most likely to happen. Yeah. Exactly. I think that's An important misconception that I see a lot of places know we're not talking about treating the entire forest like you would with a controlled burn. We're talking about treating only right where the fires likely to start, and so if you envision a roadside where if you have a car that overheats and it pulls over into the grass, right next to the roadway or somebody throws a cigarette out of their window, it only lands right next. To the roadway, and so you only have to treat right there and what's beautiful about that is that let's say a twenty foot wide treatment protects all of the forest beyond it. Yeah and this cream that you're spraying is it is it safe for plants and trees and birds and animals and people I mean something about the look of that read stuff coming out of planes I always think I would not like to be underneath it. Yeah. So we when we were developing this, we specifically designed it to be safe. That was one of the the primary concerns because anything you're putting out in the environment, you want to be one hundred percent certain that it's safe and effective. We designed it using cellulose, adjust plant matter, and a thing called Colloidal Silica, which you can think of as Nanna sand. So it's just primarily sand and
Your Gardening Questions
Why Are Potted Tomato Plants Wilting?
"He also has a question which is very interesting. He Scott some beefsteak tomatoes that he's growing in pots. and. He's He's getting some green tomatoes and you know getting getting some harvest but he's he wonders why the leaves are always wilted any any says you know it's not moisture because he's very careful about you know he he waits until you know he sticks his finger down when they start to get dry a water them thoroughly leave him alone. Maybe just one to two times a wiki waters though so he's he's wondering if it isn't moisture wire the leaves wilting. No I'm not sure I can answer that however. They tomatoes and many other fruit fruit trees, and so on. Have to pump a tremendous amount of water to develop a fruit. And Tomatoes being quite watering I'm just simply guessing that there's maybe not enough route on them to peak to be able to pick up enough water to do the site well, the increase in size and tomato, and hopefully flavor to as well as keeping the league's going there comes another consideration and that is many many plants some that we don't pay much attention to because their. Leaves, hardened and states fairly stiff but eighty six degrees. If I remember correctly is the turnaround point where plants they don't die fortunately, they just shut down their their physiology turns around and and it shuts up what we'll call. Well, they are called stole mates on the bottoms and sometimes ops of the leaves and in some plants even on the stems to where the plant Preserves the water it is within, and then as water is still leaving the leaf to a certain degree and it's not being pulled through by the the normal action from route to top IT, they just may wield over and I'm betting that Bhai Ten thirty eleven o'clock at night they're starting to plump up again and by morning those leaves are probably and pretty much normal but by ten o'clock. In the morning when the sun hits them, which needs to do and then the winds and whatever they're just simply drying out beyond their capability to move water through. I'm guessing it's either or both of those things.

"Everyone here. Cal Tar. The author of American Premiere Pie, as well as a him Sir. Thank you. For joining us today. Thank you so much for having me. So how has it been with? With the pandemic like are you getting any writing done or has it just in chaos for you? It's yeah. It's pretty much been chaos I I I have three small kids at home. So as soon as virtual learning started, I pretty much had to stop writing for a bit. I used to write at like ten o'clock after they would sleep before the pandemic but it was my new year's resolution to not do that and to sleep better. But I'm back to staying up till one am except I'm just like staring at tiktok videos and I'm not doing anything productive because I don't know that's my stress relief right now though everyone's gotTa Cope Right. Totally get to staying up watching just whatever yeah. Today I guess before we get into our questions can you let listeners know? What the book is about. Yeah. So American as Veneer Pie is the story of Laker who is the only Indian American in her small town in Michigan and Lak- feels like she has two versions of herself. There's home Laker who loves watching Bollywood Movies and eating Indian. Food. And School AK- pins her hair over her birthmark and avoids confrontation at all costs especially when someone tease her for her culture. When a racist incident rocks lead co small town she realizes she must make a choice whether to continue to remain silent or find her voice before it's too late. So the book takes place in the Midwest and as I understand it, you also grew up in the Midwest What was your upbringing like? Yes. So it was very similar to lay Kaz I grew up in a small town in Michigan and. The only indian-american or the kid in in town but there are just a handful of us. It wasn't a very diverse town You know we had a rock thrown through our window Someone wrote put a comb in that rat's nest and permanent marker on my locker and high school. There were plenty of incidents of micro aggressions and other ing and you know very obvious racism when I was growing up. So I put a lot of that into Lak- story as well. And how did you get into writing was writing something that you've always done as a kid or was that something that? Came later in your life yeah. It was when I was in third grade, our teacher had us all right these little stories and he bound them as hardcover books and I thought it was so cool to see my name on the cover I decided right then and there that I was going to grow up and be an author somewhere around middle school that dream changed to wanting to become a bollywood screenwriter. So after college I started working as a Bollywood screenwriter would travel back and forth between Mumbai and look. And Michigan and I did that for well over a decade before before my first book, him so was published. So as a screenwriter, did you use a beat sheet for writing by chance? I do so I definitely right all my novels out with a beat cheat first, and then I outlined them I, I write my novels. right my screenplays when I'm prepping them out. So there's a lot of planning a lot of outlining use a three act structure and then I start writing the book. Do you actually follow your cheat. I do. I. So I learned screenwriting at the University of Michigan from Jim Bernstein and he is a screenwriter as well as they. Instructor there, and he sort of you know drilled into us that its structure structure structure. So I spent a long time working on the structure before I actually go to the book and so then that structure pretty much stays the same. Yeah. I was really curious about that because I studied screenwriting in college and Again, it's all about structure. It's all about having your beats there yet but a lot but a lot of the times it depended on the assignment for me I will have their there were cases where I had every single scene like outlined, and then there were scripts where I was like I have the beats but I'm probably not GonNa follow it at all. Writing is unpredictable it yeah. But that's really cool that you actually follow your beats than you have such tight structure for your books because novel writing it's it's a massive project you don't have like. 'cause like scripts are like ninety, two, hundred, ten pages, and you know there are very strict rules to to adhere to write a novel writing. It's just. It's free game. Yeah and much longer like when I first started writing books my editor on a him. So as like you know, you have to pause and take a second to describe what people are wearing and what the scenery looks like. You know because from a screenwriting background, you don't do that because there is a costume designer and there's a set decorator and there are other people to take care of all those details. So it took a bit of retraining to get get. into novel writing but I I do definitely depend heavily on the screen writing background

But my personal view of this election is isolated more to spending big bucks on cameras and lenses. What about those smaller purchases that bring us true joy and energize our enthusiasm for photography. I'll make my anti gas case on today's tedious podcast I. Hope You enjoy the show. I don't know if you've ever done this but I'm going to admit you right now. That I have okay. Now fortunately is just you and me so you know no one else will. No I've never I've never admitted this anywhere else before. And this is the truth I'm telling you the truth right now. So but just from my mouth to your ears right now have you ever Set. A new camera or an accessory for it. On. The table in front of you while you worked watch TV listen to music you know just. said it there It wasn't in use. There was no particular reason to do this. Other than you just wanted to look at it and admire it's beauty. I've done that. Honestly, I. I have done that more than once. To cases that come to mind right now, the first one is the Olympus pen. F. In its handsome leather half case Oh. My Gosh. What a beauty So pretty. The other one is the Fujifilm x one hundred V with its aluminum grip? Yeah. That's pretty two different cameras you know the my pen F is a silver Penev. Got Some really beautiful silver lenses and I get this brown leather half case with a matching rhys strap. Really Nice and then my ex one hundred V is the all black model which I really liked for the Fuji Film. And it has this aircraft aluminum grip really really pretty. Really Nice. And when I look at these things sitting on the table in front of me. While I'm watching TV, while I'm listening to music while I'm browsing the web doing whatever the heck. I do at ten o'clock at night. It makes me WANNA go out and take pictures you know I go i. Can't wait to get that camera my hands and go do something.

Mess with you right out of the shoot. The first one is a new Lens. Coin what you just said, right a new lens but a vintage one. Yes. So it's only new to you is been around for a long time. Yes. You could spend twelve hundred dollars on a new state of the art optic no problem. You can spend more than that if you wanted. But scoring of vintage beauty for one hundred dollars or less. Can Be just as satisfying in evokes a far less guilt. In the images that this glass producers can truly inspiring because it seems like each lens that you find on Ebay or craigslist or Oetzi or your local camera shop each vintage lens that you find has a different feel to it and. Go. Wow. This is really Kinda neat and sometimes in the world of digital optics everything sort of produces the same super magnificent results right which is great. Until you know a thousand frame of the same super magnificent result and he got I really would like to see something different. A new vintage lens can do that. And since most of US shoot murless or have a meritless camera, they adapt these lenses adapt. So well, meritless cameras. It's not even funny. You can get an adapter for like fifteen bucks at works. Great. You have this manual Focus Lens you take some pictures with it. You're going. Wow, this is really interesting. This looks different. It's different operating is different looking through the electronic viewfinder with it's just different the way around and it can be very motivating very inspiring.

I think last week ahead eighteen nineteen appointments on my calendar Chat with folks all of the world. Personal Development Business building all kinds of cool things that we do. But you it always comes down to one thing. Now. Nobody ever wants to hear this it I if I do podcasts on productivity like I am today everybody wants to hear that. But when they call him for coaching, they don't want that they want to strategy an idea on Scott. Tell me what to do. Let's go go go go. I should just finally start with productivity because they always get back around see. Here's what happens. They come, they want the to get the roadmap ready to go. Got Too excited it to make it happen. Then Scott, I couldn't do it. I ran out of time I don't know what happened. I. Guess I should work on my productivity I'm like yeah okay. So I know this now I think starting today every single client who comes in the door is GonNa Start Productivity I can make sure we can get the work done make the space right? So the here's what happens. The day runs out and you have so many to choose on your list and do you get to the into your day and you still have a lot of to do's and they're probably pretty the probably growing rapidly like rabbits. And they are for a couple of reasons. One major reason is people keep them on a computer with recurring events these days they just keep adding up you never get rid of him until the day you die and I'm not sure they stop after that somebody has to clean her mass, right? But getting what you want life. Is often blocked by simple habits that are getting in your way now there to that everybody misses let's rush through these because there is one that's vitally important I'll do it afterwards you gotta wait we got to build the foundation here. Okay. Number One the first super productivity super charger is to understand the tomorrow. Begins Today. So it's ten o'clock in the morning today on a Monday and you're you're in your day you here you go. If you take a few minutes today to look at tomorrow and think about it it's GonNa Change. Your world. Aspects that sounds like something I already. Do I know I know but we have to get to the other two before you're really gonNA understand what to do with that. But if you just take off racing through your week into never about what's coming up the next day and what you're, GonNa do with it. It's just going to go crazy you're going to get dragged around. Athens doesn't it? So, planning ahead, really vital to setting path to use desired outcome the next day. So what happens next you get out of bed you're ready to go. You got your morning thing happened, right? You'RE GONNA sit down you're gonNA. Ground Yourself. Before you get too busy. Take just a few minutes. I don't care if you got the office walk in the office and the very first thing you do. Is Look at your machine in front of you. You're a piece of paper whatever it is and go ah gay here I am. I know. I. Thought About this yesterday. But now let me look at today's plan again. and. I want you to reaffirm was to be done. Reaffirm. Sorry my voice crack didn't. reaffirmed. What has to be done today now you did it yesterday. Now you're GonNa do it today and I want you to kind of look at it from this angle what must be done today if you didn't get these things done today, we really bad these have to happen everything else can kind of be off to the side. This is one of the things that I talked to clients. I tell them listen you're only going to get three to. Six things done a day I usually three big deal she I might do a thousand things, but there's only three important things are going to happen today. That's it. Maybe a phone call email talk to somebody whatever it's going to be is only three. If you look at your day today and say, there are three things that have to happen today if they don't world's not going to have to delegate it to somebody else that's all there is to it. If you do that today and then take breath and hang on for the ride and get through it and stay true to yourself all day. You will be amazed what happens. Now we know we've looked at it the day before, and then we got up in the morning we grounded herself We thought about it. Okay. This is what I'm going to do but you know what? I'm just going to go up and it's GonNa fall apart again I know it's going to happen and is why is that? Why can't I I'M SMART I know this I've listened to eight, thousand, nine, hundred, seventy, two podcasts I read the Book David Allen. I can't understand this complicated system and it seems like it should work for me to buy you do. All right. You're right Scott train today. So come on I'll tell you what to do. So here's the thing. Here's a Scott logic kicking right some people call it common sense. I don't think it's a little bit different. See I just one day reasons something. Scott Logic, told me this? There are what I call non optional activities that take place throughout the course of a day. and. It takes up way more time than you think. Not optionals like taking care of personal needs eating drinking sleeping, taking a shower shaving and the other things that people say in those rhymes about would you do in the morning? How about commuting in a car if you're still commuting. How about not being able to get on a log on zoom call or a a Webex thing is messing with you how much somebody walking your office. If you still have an office in bothering your for a few minutes, they won't do their job they're having you do their job. How does somebody calling her texting e-mailing you all day long this stuff. Happens doesn't it? How about the kids needing some help? How maybe you didn't sleep last night and your little tired today album maybe you're on a diet and you don't have as much energy as you wanted to have how about maybe have a warrior about some money maybe you can't pay your mortgage next month a lot of that going on right now. Out these little things that are going on, do you think possibly these things will ever go away in your life? Now. It's naive if you think it is I'm sorry Scott Logic says, oh, come on be nice to them. They could go way not really there's always going to be non optionals. These are GONNA be pop up events they're gonNA come on your life some of listen you know you have to eat every day you know you should be exercising. You know things are GonNa happen I am not telling you anything that you don't already know you already know it. So why in God I'm sorry I shouldn't say why would you even think about? Getting. Up and doing planner and do a schedule. I can get through my day without any of these not options you can for about three hours and you're going to to go pee. It's GonNa take your time. The older you get the longer, it takes just the truth. Okay.
