[Assistant] You've done something differently, or you've done something that just makes you feel very, very calm and peaceful. Uhm, when you go to maybe yoga class, which I've never really done, I don't think. I think you would think it's very refreshing. You might even say it's a breath of fresh air.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So at work, sometimes we do something different and it's very refreshing. Sometimes we eat lunch outside instead of eating lunch inside and it's very refreshing. We're doing something new in a different place and it's kind of a breath of fresh air.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of someone, uh, babysitting or taking care of young children.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, because that can be exhausting. When you do something that makes you very tired, when you do something that makes you uh, unhappy, tired, maybe you have to do it for a long time, we describe it as exhausting. You could describe your job


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As exhausting. If I had a job where I had to lift bricks all day


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would come home and say work was exhausting today. The experience was exhausting. So it just means something that made you very, very


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was very stressful. A car accident would be a harrowing experience. If you were in a store and the store got robbed that would be a harrowing experience.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When we say something is a harrowing experience, it's very stressful,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's probably something bad that has happened, uhm, and it's probably something like the two examples I just gave you. Uhm, certainly if you are in a car accident, it's a very harrowing experience. It's frightening, it's stressful, it is not pleasant at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exhilarating. I'll say that word again. Exhilarating. Probably a hard word for English learners to learn to pronounce, but when something is exhilarating, it means it's very, very exciting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's definitely exhilarating. It's something that, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not that you're afraid, but it's something that gives you an adrenaline rush. Do you know what adrenaline is? Your body releases adrenaline when you do something slightly scary or exciting or fun or extreme, like going on a roller coaster.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But certainly at the end of each school year as a school we sometimes go to an amusement park and when I go on the roller coaster it's exhilarating. So I want to say it's like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Scary, but in a good way. Does that make sense? Like it's a little bit scary, but it's also a lot of fun. It's kind of a mixture of the two.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well organized. I love going to events that are well organized. I love it when I'm in a situation at work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And someone has organized something and it's just well organized. It's so nice. It's just a better experience when it's well organized. I sometimes go to teacher conventions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I really like it when the convention is well organized. So everything runs on time. There's a schedule for the day. Lunch is ready when lunch starts. You don't have to wait for lunch. So everything, uh, whoever is in charge has organized the event well and it's well organized.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As opposed to a mess or a disaster. So you can describe something as a mess, even if it's not messy. Okay, so a mess is when


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's say after you eat in your kitchen, maybe you eat takeout and there's just stuff everywhere. We say it's a mess.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But if you go to an event that's not well organized, you could say it's a mess. So maybe it was supposed to start at nine and it doesn't start till ten. Uhm, maybe they, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had a microphone and the microphone stopped working and then everyone was supposed to have lunch at noon, but lunch wasn't ready until 1230. You would say, ah, the whole day was a mess. It was a disaster. It was not well organized. So when you say something's a mess, it's the opposite of saying that it's well organized.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Excruciating. Another word that's probably hard to pronounce. Excruciating. When something is excruciating, it's really hard to watch or listen to because it might be boring, it might be very badly done, it might just be, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe you can tell they weren't well prepared. A good example would be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Listening to someone play a musical instrument when they're not good at it, but they play a really long song.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So when I was, uhm, I used to go to piano recitals and children would play piano and most of the children would have really good songs and play them, but every once in a while,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, one of the kids would play a song and you could tell they hadn't practiced very much and it was excruciating. Basically means it was, it's really hard to sit there and listen to because it wasn't well done and they weren't well prepared. Excruciating.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But you definitely pretended to be all high and moralistic when the truth is, we're caught from the same claw.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pre-returns. Their customer's insurance policy for shopping online. But what happens to those returns after you give them back might surprise you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In fact, returns have become such a headache for retailers that in some cases they're just refunding customers and letting them keep or donate the unwanted items.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Turns out, free returns are far from it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Accepting a return isn't always easy either. A warehouse optimized for fulfilling orders now has to receive a product and inspect it. Then someone needs to decide whether it can be resold or not. In the end, an online return can require up to 20% more space and labor than one made in-store.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Those costs are part of why Optoro, a return solution company, estimates that returning a $50 item can cost a retailer 59% of its sale price. Often, the math just doesn't add up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But some returns never make it to a liquidator.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every year, returns produce an estimated five billion pounds of waste in landfills.

[Assistant] 12 of the country's most talented chefs sharpen their knives for battle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You will have until 10pm tonight and a few hours before the party tomorrow to finish your desserts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Welcome everyone to Mr. S. There are 11 stations throughout the store, so find one, get set up, and then get changed into your party clothes. In just a few moments, you'll be presenting your desserts to our judges, Madame S., and 50 of her sexiest friends.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this is Mademoiselle's party. She was the customer, ultimately. She has to decide who her favorite was and that's the winner. Let's call her in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Madame S was our hostess this evening, and she chose the three of you as the chefs of her favorite desserts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lisa, I thought that you didn't sell what you made.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We've heard what you have to say. Now we have a big decision to make. Please go wait with the others until you're called in again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me start by saying this was a very difficult decision.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Andrea, this is your second time to the judge's table.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was a challenge about presentation. Your dessert just didn't look sexy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The person that we chose to eliminate did not display the qualities of a top chef.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The way you feel when you walk into any kitchen is the way you present food. And I think when you're not feeling good, it shows in the food.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the bottom line is, if you bring it to the table, you're gonna be here for a while. If you don't, you're going home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So right here I have total orgasm. So I have tardy tits here, cream puffs with a lemon thyme cream, and then Asian pillows.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Basically in the Asian pillow is an exotic tapioca pudding.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then, you're gonna finish off with the total orgasm shot. This is a hot chocolate. And it's seasoned with a little cayenne, a little nutmeg, and some cinnamon. Hopefully you had a total orgasm tonight. It wasn't bad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When Madame S came over to my station, she took me for a total ride. Start off with my chest, and have a tartan tip, and then the Asian pillow. And then, I served her up the hot chocolate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The minute I walked in the room, I'm like, this room stinks. You knew it was gonna be something nasty underneath that pot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you don't know how to make paella? No, I could make- Okay, I'm confused because a minute ago you were an expert.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In a workflow, you can also use processes that have a 3D grid. You have to be a little careful though. Start off with again, let's generate a workflow. We'll call this one processes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Start off as usual, putting a comment, an empty line in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, if we come over here to the Processes pane, and we come down to one of the 3D grid processes, for example, Make Horizons, we put it in our workflow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Double click on the process name in the workflow, but when we double click now, it says, oh, we have to specify the 3D grid that we're going to be used, and we need to use this with 3D grid process. This has to be in our workflow before we use any processes that have to use a 3D grid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Up here at the top of processes is width 3D grid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Put it into our workflow. Make sure it's in the correct location up here. Go over to our models pane and highlight a 3D grid. Put the 3D grid in up here. Now we can say use this grid. Make a copy of the grid and use it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Make a copy of the grid and also copy the properties. So we have options. So here we say we want to make a grid copy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With this, then we can now click on the Make Horizons process and since Petrel now knows what 3D grid we're working with, it can open up the Make Horizons process. It shows us all the information that was used to create the 3D grid in the Make Horizons


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if we have a new top edit, we put it in here under the new top edit under input number one. We can still use the well tops if we want. Now when we click on the okay button, again it just puts this back into our


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Workflow and then we can run it. So let's see what happens when we run.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's taking a couple of seconds to run. I probably should have put a finished down there on the bottom. So now we have copy of 3D grid and our horizons are the new base Cretaceous and the new top eddive.

[Assistant] Ryan made mistakes, you know, overcooking the carrots. Kids, kids hate it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was a tough challenge. Reheating in a microwave really took a lot of planning. Sometimes I think they get ahead of themselves and try to be very creative before they really think about what they're doing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The person who really surprised me was Andrea, because uhm, we actually, you know,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She was asked to pack up at one point and she made a pretty strong comeback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Flavors were really great. In fact, I thought it was better than most of the Thai restaurants that I've been to. Thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think the Escolar was a perfect choice because of the high oil content. It's not going to dry out. In fact, it was perfectly cooked. I thought that for putting a presentation in a plastic container, I thought it was actually quite nice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, Andrea, I expected some earthy crunchy granola dish from you, but it had some finesse this time. And, uh, I thought it was great. So, uh, Katie, what's the outcome here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think the least experienced person in Canada really showed her inexperience. The ingredients never came together in a quiche, if you want to call it a quiche. The custard was rubbery. It was a mess.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Written and illustrated by Mercer Mayer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There used to be an alligator under my bed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When it was time to go to sleep, I had to be very careful.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because I knew he was there. But, whenever I looked, he hid, or something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was up to me. I just had to do something about that alligator.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I went to the kitchen to get some alligator bait.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I filled a paper bag full of things alligators like to eat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I put a peanut butter sandwich, some fruit, and the last piece of pie in the garage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I left fresh vegetables on the stairs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I put a soda and some candy next to my bed. Then I watched and waited. Sure enough, out he came to get something to eat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then I hid in the hall closet. I followed him down the stairs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I slammed the door and locked it. Then I went to bed. There wasn't even any mess to clean up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wonder if my dad will have any trouble getting in his car tomorrow morning.

[Assistant] I was sorry that it was him to go. Cause he was really, you know, getting into his groove and enjoying himself here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, hello and welcome to this English lesson about school. I love talking about school. As most of you know, my real job, as we might say in English, is that I am a high school teacher.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, it's summer right now, so I don't need to go to work. But during the school year, I am a high school teacher and I love talking about school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's because when I was young, when I was a student, I loved being in school. I have always loved learning. And so I think naturally, uh, people who love learning


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, as a teacher, I'm always excited to do a lesson about school. In particular, this lesson is about back to school. Back to school will be happening in a few weeks here in Ontario, Canada.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's kind of the middle of summer vacation, but I've noticed already that the back to school sales have started. So students usually need to buy a few things before they go back to school. So today I thought I would do a lesson on back to school. So school, let me make this a little bit bigger for you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] School. I actually modified this slide for this lesson because school may look like one or the other when you look at the pictures over here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] School last year for the most part for us was online but also we had in-person learning. So if you look to the far side of this slide you'll see there's a boy looking at his computer


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He would be doing what's called online learning or remote learning, and these students are doing in-person learning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So school is of course the place where kids go. Uhm, in Canada, kids from the age of about 4 or 5 up to age 17 or 18 attend school on a daily basis. So school is the place where children go in order to learn things. This is what's called back to school time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Back to school usually happens right after a holiday that we call Labor Day in Ontario, Canada. And in many other parts of the world, I think it's similar.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Back to school is the day when kids go back on the bus or they walk to school and they start school again. So the phrase back to school is used a lot right now. We would call this the back to school season or it's back to school time or you might even say something like, well, it's almost back to school, isn't it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we use the phrase in a lot of different ways in English to talk about usually


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, summer holidays or summer vacation. In Ontario, Canada, students get two months off from school, and teachers do too, which is kind of a bonus. Uhm, and we would refer to that as summer holidays or summer vacation. A good time to hang out with friends, maybe just read a book.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Older students usually get part-time jobs, so they'll get a summer job during the summer vacation or summer holidays. My two oldest kids both have summer jobs right now. Uhm, they both found places to work for the summer so that they could earn some money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have of course other things that happen during back to school time and we add the phrase back to school to it. So right now people are going to start to do back to school shopping. You know the word to in back to school. Sometimes we actually put the number to back to school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Guess it looks cooler, but right now I've noticed that we get flyers in the mail. A flyer is like a paper that shows everything that is on sale at a store and all of them say back to school, back to school shopping time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, we have times of the year when we shop for certain things. This is certainly a time of the year where there will be a lot of people doing back to school shopping.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And of course, because of that, we will have what's called back to school sales.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A back to school sale is a sale during the month of August.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where things that you normally buy for school are cheaper than they normally would be. So right now the back to school shopping has started. The stores are sending out flyers where they're showing a lot of back to school sales. You know, pencils 50% off or pencil cases 25% off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometimes kids buy clothes just for school. It's not really any different than their normal clothes, but it might be different than the clothes they play in outside. They might be clothes that they keep a little cleaner because they are their school clothes. So for our kids, we would say something like, well, we need to go buy some more school clothes for you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would say about ten to twenty percent of the schools in Canada have school uniforms. I know in certain countries, school uniforms are very, very popular. Uhm, for instance, the school I work at has school uniforms, but the school my kids go to, my younger kids, doesn't have school uniforms. So again, a school uniform is, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If your school doesn't have school uniforms, you might just need school clothes. Maybe you need some school clothes because uhm, as a kid, uh, sometimes kids outgrow them and then maybe you need to get some new, uh, shirts and pants for your school uniform.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And of course there are back to school sales because people need school supplies.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the word or phrase we use to refer to all the things you buy when you need to go to school, we would call school supplies. Some schools supply certain things to the students, but other schools, most schools require students to buy certain things before they go. In Canada, of course.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the school would supply things like glue or maybe colored paper if they're doing art or paint. But my kids and most Canadian kids have to buy certain school supplies in order to go to school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They might need a binder. We would call this a three ring binder. This is something that you can open and close and it can hold paper.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Book that you can take notes in when you're a student at school. It's a good idea to take notes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You might need to buy some pencils, pens or a highlighter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So a pencil is of course something you can sharpen, and it's used for math or art classes. A pen is something that's permanent. This is a bic pen made by my friends over in France. Bic pens are really cool. I like them. I shouldn't tell you this, but I actually like chewing on the cap of the bic pen. I shouldn't mention that, should I?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and then a highlighter is something you can use to uhm, basically make words yellow so that you can see them easier.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, a highlighter is a really good tool if you're learning English. You can highlight new words. Don't do that in library books though. Only use a highlighter in a book that you own.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You might need an eraser, so that if you write something in pencil, you can erase it later.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That kids in Canada and I think most other countries would need to buy, they would need to go to a back to school sale and if they needed, if they didn't have a pencil case, they would need to buy one. The school would not give these items to the kids.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe they need a calculator and maybe they need a backpack.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or what we sometimes just call a book bag. So let's quick review again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These are all things that we would call school supplies, and some of these things students will need to buy before they go back to school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A binder, maybe two binders, maybe four. They might need a notebook. They might need a pencil, pen, and a highlighter or kind of like a few of each. They would put them with their eraser in their pencil case and they might need a small pencil sharpener and they might need a laptop and a calculator.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This really depends on the school as well. I think at my school we have a class set of calculators.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then they might need a backpack or a book peg for all of these items.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, the first day of school is called the first day of school, but I wanted to put this slide in here. I mean, it sounds pretty obvious, doesn't it? Uhm, in our part of Canada, the day after Labor Day, which is a holiday in September, we have the first day of school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the first day of school this year, I think, I actually didn't look this up, I should have looked it up. First day of school this year is probably...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] September 7th, that would be my guess. First day of school, September 7th. Uhm, but you also have


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Really little kids who haven't gone to school before sometimes have their first day of school. So they've never been to school and that's an exciting day for them. The first day of school whether you're like four or five and you've never been or if you're like fourteen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, it's usually a day where parents take a photo. We often take a photo on the first day of school of our kids with their backpacks and their new school clothes. Uhm, and then we put that in a photo album.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The school day in Ontario, Canada. So when you talk about, you know, the work day is from about 8 till 5. Some people work from 7 till 4.30. Uh, some people their work day is 7.30 till 5.30. But the school day


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From eight thirty to three thirty, it might go from nine till three. For my school, the school day is from eight thirty to three thirty and classes start at ten to nine and go to three oh five.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the school day is just a way of talking about the day at school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you are older, and if you are at a high school, you might have a semester system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The semester system is a system where you take certain classes for about four or five months and then you are done and then you take other classes. Our elementary schools, our grade schools, kids under the age of 13,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday for 40 minutes or something like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In our high schools, we have a semester system. So this fall, for the fall semester, for semester one, I'm teaching two classes this year. I'm teaching a computer class and a business class. And then semester two, I'm teaching my three French classes again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, of course, the student is the person who is learning. We don't use the word pupil anymore. Uhm, it's kind of an old term. And we sometimes use the word learner, although this is more common in other English-speaking countries. In Canada, we would call the kids who go to school students.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think 30 or 40 years ago, you might call them pupils. Uhm, and we usually don't use the word learner very often. Like how many students do you have in your class? That would be a common question. Not how many learners. Although it is a common English word, that means the same as student.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can see this boy has decided to take all his new pencils and insert them in his ears and in his nose. Uhm, and just be silly. Class clowns often tell jokes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you, as a teacher, when I write on the board, sometimes class clowns say funny things and make everyone laugh, or they throw things. A class clown is someone who...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was gonna say, isn't serious about learning, but I've actually had class clowns who got the best grade in the class in the past. Some students can be silly and also learn very well at the same time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't use this term anymore. Uhm, in Canada we also call a student like this a keener. Uhm, that's a Canadian word I think though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But a teacher's pet is a student who likes to sit at the front, likes to answer the questions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and all of those kinds of things. I think Agnan, if you watch, uhm, Petite Nicolas in French.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think Anion is the teacher's pet. He's the small boy that knows all the answers. Sorry, that's a little bit of French. I might have got the name wrong. But a teacher's pet, it's not a nice term. It's kind of an insult now. As a teacher, I would not use the word teacher's pet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But when students bug each other, they might say, ah, you're the teacher's pet. You're always answering the questions. And then of course you have the teacher.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The teacher is the person at the front of the room who does all of the teaching. In Canada, we have one teacher per classroom, but there also might be someone called a teacher's aide who helps the teacher.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, or there might be a teaching assistant. There might be a student teacher who comes and helps the teacher for a few months to learn how to teach. But the person who does most of the work is the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sorry, I shouldn't have said that. Teacher aides do a lot of work as well. The primary, the person who plans the lessons is the teacher.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you are at a university or college, we would call that teacher a professor. Now, some of you call me Professor Bob, and that would be incorrect. Uhm, I know in other languages like French, professeur means teacher.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But in English there is a distinction. So I am a teacher. Brent in the chat from American English with this guy is a teacher.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Brent or I went and got our PhD, and if we went and taught at a university, we would then be Professor Bob and Professor Brent. That's a nice ring to it, doesn't it, Brent? By the way, I have no desire to do that at this point in my life. I like what I'm doing now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The place where you teach is called a classroom. I'm gonna speed up maybe a bit here. I think some of these are quite familiar to you. So a classroom is a place where you teach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the way, one of the original classrooms was a tree. So hundreds of years ago, trees used to be classrooms. Uhm, because if you learned outside, it was a nice shady place to learn. So sometimes when I'm making a lesson under a tree, it makes me smile.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because I feel like I'm an old fashioned teacher from 500 years ago teaching under a tree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you are at a university, you could go to a classroom. You might also call it a lecture hall. So when I was in university, some of my classes were in small classrooms and some were in lecture halls which were bigger rooms where more people could sit and learn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You of course will have a desk. This we would call a student's desk. There's also a teacher's desk at the front of the room which is bigger. Uhm, and there's all different kinds of desks, uh, in Canadian classrooms. Uhm, my students don't like these kinds of desks where the seat is like connected to the desk because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some students by grade 12 are quite tall. They're very big. And it's hard to fit in a desk when you're six foot two and in grade 12.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There will be probably a whiteboard or a chalkboard in the room. We have more whiteboards than chalkboards now. Chalkboards


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have kind of slowly been removed from classrooms over the last 20 years and have been replaced with whiteboards. A whiteboard's a little cleaner. You don't get chalk on your hands when you use a whiteboard, but you might see a whiteboard or blackboard in the room. By the way, even if the blackboard is green, we still call it a blackboard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I still have a classroom where I do have a blackboard at the back and it's actually green, but it's still called a blackboard or chalkboard. You could just call it a chalkboard too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and then of course you have whiteboard markers. So on the far side of this image.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The exact same kind I use in my room. Expo. And then you see that there is chalk. I like to use different colors, especially when I'm teaching French. It's nice to write sentences in one color and then kind of, uh, teach things about the sentence using another color. Very, very handy to use different colors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, to teach different grammatical or gramm- grammar concepts when I'm teaching French.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then here's another eraser. So just like the first eraser, which is used to erase pencil, this eraser can be used to erase, uh, whiteboard markers or chalkboards or blackboards.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then there will probably be a bulletin board in the room where students can hang their work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or where the teacher can hang some posters and usually, uhm, in my room, I have students create different, uhm, they do different assignments where they create something visual and then we will put that on the bulletin board for everyone else to see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We do in the earlier classes, we do things like comic strips in French, and then we put them on the bulletin board.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we use of course either a push pin, which is the red thing here, we would call that a push pin, or thumbtacks. I generally use push pins, I find they're easier to take back out. Uh, thumbtacks go in really nicely, but it's sometimes hard to get the thumbtack back out again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then there will of course be a projector and a screen. The projector in this picture is on the ceiling and the screen is way over there on the far wall. We also have in our classrooms something called a smart board.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My annotations on my laptop, which I put onto the projector screen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's see where we're at. Last thing for this section. Bookshelf. There might be a bookcase or bookshelf in your classroom. Uhm, so for me, I have bookshelves that are full of French books because I teach French. Uhm, there's a few


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yes, we just finished talking about what is in a classroom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we are now going to talk about just a few odds and ends about school. So one of those would be textbooks. Some classes require that you have a textbook. Most schools in Canada


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you are in school, like if you're in grade 1 up to grade 12, so in elementary school, grade school, or high school, schools provide the textbooks, okay? So you do not have to buy your textbook. So when you go to math class in grade 9, on the first day of school, the teacher will give you a textbook.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you go to university or college in Canada, you have to buy your textbooks. So again, a textbook


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is a book that has all of the information you need to learn, or most of it, for that class. So when you take a French class with me, I give you a French textbook, and it's like grade 9 French textbook. Actually it's called Express 9e.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you're in university though, it can be quite pricey. I know even 25 years ago when I was in university, uhm, it was like 400 or 500 dollars a semester to buy textbooks. It was expensive. Now, during class, the teacher will teach a lesson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So for me, a lesson is all of the things I have planned for one class. There might be small lessons within the bigger lesson, but basically I make a lesson plan and then I teach the lesson plan that day. So students will take uhm, certain lessons from me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An assignment is when I ask a student to do a certain type of work and then give it to me when they're done. Okay? So a lesson can have assignments in it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But sometimes my lesson, I don't require the students to give me anything. I'll say, you know, uhm, write in French, write what you did yesterday in five sentences, and then I'll have them read it out loud. And I don't take the paper from them and grade it. It's just a little lesson to practice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But an assignment would be if I said, you know, write five paragraphs about something you like doing and give it to me. And then as a teacher, I will grade it or I will correct it. In Canada, we say I would, I will mark it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lockers. So generally our grade schools and elementary schools don't have lockers. Students usually just hang their book bag on a hook. But in high school you usually have a locker and you usually have a combination lock on your locker and you would put your books in your locker and only take the books out that you need for the class you are going to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The lockers are usually all in a hallway. So a school is a fairly, well, they used to be fairly boring buildings.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, you know, 10 or 20 years ago, a school was just hallways and classrooms and some bathrooms or washrooms.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, uhm, we have hallways and classrooms and we're starting to add other spots to our school. Like, our school has a nice, uhm, meeting area that we call an atrium.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, of course we have a gymnasium as well. But lockers, if you get a locker, it will be in the hallway. Your locker will have a number on it. So on the first day of school, you would have to find your locker. When I was in school, I had to share a locker.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So during the day, they will have breaks and they are called recess. So in Canada, if you are in anywhere from kindergarten, grade one up to grade eight, you will have recess during the day. Elementary schools have recess.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't call it recess, uhm, in high school though. We simply call it lunchtime.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So my school in particular, uh, it's a high school. Uh, there are two classes in the morning and then we have lunchtime and then there are two classes in the afternoon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a small break between the first two classes, but for high school students, we don't call it recess. They don't go out for recess. Sometimes the grade nine students on the first day of school, they might ask, when is recess? And then I just say, oh, here we just have lunchtime. There's no recess. I try to answer that as nicely as possible. You can just call it lunch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we do certainly use the word lunchtime most often. Like, uhm, oh, I have a meeting at lunchtime. Or can you come and work, uh, write your quiz at lunchtime, the one you missed last week? Lunchtime. I usually just eat at lunchtime. That's my favorite thing to do at lunchtime.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From lessons in the past, people have asked do Canadian kids go outside for recess


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And play on the playground in the middle of the winter. Yes. If it's above minus twenty degrees celsius, then kids will go outside and play. If it's below minus fifteen, minus twenty, and windy, we will have indoor recess instead of outdoor recess.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But that's at great schools. At high school, the kids just do whatever they want at lunchtime.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so there's three things that you might do in a classroom and each one is slightly bigger than the other. A quiz is usually something that's really simple.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a test that takes about 5 to 10 minutes. It might only have 5 or 10 questions on it. I might say to my students, you have a small quiz tomorrow. You need to know these 20 vocabulary words. Uhm, a test is definitely bigger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A test, uh, might take anywhere from thirty minutes to over an hour. Our classes are seventy minutes long. They're an hour and ten minutes long. So students might write a test that takes half the class. It might take the whole class. There might even be one or two students still writing their test when we get to the end of class.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then at the end of our semesters, we have what are called exams. We actually also have them sometimes in the middle. You can have a midterm exam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's just too hard to say, isn't it? Exams a lot easier. Students have exams at the end of their semester.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Students from grades 7 or 8 up have exams. Usually younger children don't have exams.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then of course, some kids go to school on a school bus. A school bus in Canada looks just like this. It is a big yellow bus. All of our school buses are yellow. They have lots of lights on them. When they stop to pick up kids, the red lights flash. The little stop sign goes out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and, uh, if you do it and get caught, it's, uh, it's a pretty big try. You don't wanna do it. Uhm, by the way, a little, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fun fact, my grandfather was a farmer but he also drove school bus. I was not aware of that until a few years ago. There was a picture of my grandfather's farm taken from an airplane and there was a school bus parked beside the house and I was like, what's that? And they said, oh, grandpa used to milk the cows and then he would do drive the school bus


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then he would come home and do all his farm work and then he would go and do the run at the end of the day. Lots of fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hi, I'm Leo Lyon, and I'm from the United States. You can find me at the carnival in Red Apple Reading. Today, I'm going to read There's an Alligator Under My Bed. We hope you enjoy it. There's an Alligator Under My Bed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Written and illustrated by Mercer Mayer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There used to be an alligator under my bed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When it was time to go to sleep, I had to be very careful.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because I knew he was there. But, whenever I looked, he hid, or something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was up to me. I just had to do something about that alligator.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I went to the kitchen to get some alligator bait.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I filled a paper bag full of things alligators like to eat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I put a peanut butter sandwich, some fruit, and the last piece of pie in the garage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I left fresh vegetables on the stairs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I put a soda and some candy next to my bed. Then I watched and waited. Sure enough, out he came to get something to eat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then I hid in the hall closet. I followed him down the stairs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I slammed the door and locked it. Then I went to bed. There wasn't even any mess to clean up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wonder if my dad will have any trouble getting in his car tomorrow morning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For every 400 molecules of carbon dioxide, we have another million molecules of oxygen and nitrogen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Imagine, just one of us was wearing a green shirt, and you're asked to find that single person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the challenge we're facing when capturing CO2 directly out of the air. Sounds pretty easy. Pulling CO2 out of the air? It's actually really difficult. But I'll tell you what is easy. Avoiding CO2 emissions to begin with. But we're not doing that. So now, what we have to think about is going back, pulling CO2 back out of the air.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though it's difficult, it's actually possible to do this. And I'm going to share with you today where this technology is at and where it just may be heading in the near future.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By seawater, soils, plants and even rocks. And although engineers and scientists are doing the invaluable work to accelerate these natural processes, it simply won't be enough. The good news is we have more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One is using CO2 grabbing chemicals dissolved in water. Another is using solid materials with CO2 grabbing chemicals.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can see it has to be really, really wide in order to have a high enough surface area to process all of the air required. Because remember, we're trying to capture just 400 molecules out of a million.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Using the liquid-based approach to do this, you take this high surface area packing material, you fill the contactor with the packing material, you use pumps to distribute liquid across the packing material, and you can use fans, as you can see in the front, to bubble the air through the liquid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the really strong binding CO2 molecules in solution.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So air contactors for direct air capture have this unique characteristic design where they have this huge surface area, but a relatively thin thickness. And now once you've captured the CO2,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because think about it, CO2 is so diluted in the air, that material is binding it really strong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What happens is that concentrated CO2 that you got from dilute CO2 in the air is now released, and you produce high-purity CO2. And that's really important, because high-purity CO2 is easier to liquefy, easier to transport whether it's in a pipeline or a truck,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I ask a question. How much energy do you think that it takes to remove a million tons of CO2 from the air in a given year? The answer is a power plant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An energy-intensive version of this technology could cost you as much as a thousand dollars a ton just to capture it. Let's translate that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you were to take that very expensive CO2 and convert it to a liquid fuel that comes out to $50 a gallon, that's way too expensive. It's not feasible. So how can we bring these costs down? That's in part the work that I do. There's a company today


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are several other companies that are developing technologies that can do this even cheaper than that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'm going to talk to you a little bit about a few of these different companies. One is called Carbon Engineering. They're based out of Canada. They use a liquid-based approach for separation, combined with burning super-pundant


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cheap natural gas to supply the heat required.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the CO2 that they generate from burning the natural gas. And so by doing this,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Climeworks uses heat from the earth, or geothermal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At a really fast rate, which allows them to have a more compact design and overall cheaper costs. And there's more still.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The land area required for a synthetic forest or a manufactured direct air capture plant to capture the same is 500 times smaller.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In addition for a synthetic forest, you don't have to build it on arable land, so there's no competition with farmland or food. And there's also


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which means putting it back underground where it came from in the first place. But let's face it, nobody gets paid to do that today. At least not enough. So the companies that are developing these technologies


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One thing I'll absolutely say is positive about the carbon markets is that they allow for new capture plants to be built. And with every capture plant built, we learn more. And when we learn more, we have an opportunity to bring costs down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We could have all of the clever thinking and technology in the world, but it's not going to be enough in order for this technology to have a significant impact on climate. We really need regulation. We need subsidies, taxes on carbon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In 1966, the US invested about a half a percent of gross domestic product in the Apollo program. It got people safely to the moon and back to the earth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Half a percent of GDP today is about 100 billion dollars. So knowing that direct air capture


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That adds up to about five percent of US annual emissions. Doesn't sound like much. Turns out it's actually significant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, what would it take in terms of land area to do this? Two hundred plants.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it turns out that they would take up about half the land area of Vancouver.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's if they were fueled by natural gas. But remember the downside of natural gas? It also emits CO2. So if you use natural gas to do direct air capture, you only end up capturing about a third of what's intended.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unless you have that clever approach of cocapture that carbon engineering does.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so if we had an alternative approach and used wind or solar to do this, the land area would be about 15 times larger, looking at the state of New Jersey now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the things that I think about in my work and my research is optimizing and figuring out where we should put these plants and think about the local resources available.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because, for instance, you can use clean electricity to split water to produce hydrogen, which is an excellent carbon-free replacement for natural gas to supply the heat required.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I want us to reflect a little bit again on negative emissions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they may help us if we continue to stall at cutting down on CO2 pollution worldwide. But that's also why we have to be careful.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This approach is so alluring that it can even be risky, as some may cling onto it as some kind of total solution to our climate crisis. It may tempt people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Negative emissions as a replacement for stopping pollution but rather as an addition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To an existing portfolio that includes everything, from increased energy efficiency to low-energy carbon to improved farming.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll all collectively get us on a path to net zero emissions one day. A little bit of self-reflection. My husband is an emergency physician, and I find myself amazed by the lifesaving work that he and his colleagues do each and every day. Yet when I talk to them about my work on carbon capture, I find that they're equally amazed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Isn't just about saving a polar bear or a glacier, it's about saving human lives.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it could just enable us to preserve not only the Amazon, but all the people that we love and cherish as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is all of our future generations and modern civilization. Thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're at a critical moment. Our leaders, some of our great institutions are failing us. Why? In some cases it's because they're bad or unethical. But often they've taken us to the wrong objectives. And this is unacceptable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This has to stop. How are we gonna correct these wrongs? How are we gonna choose the right course? It's not gonna be easy. For years I've worked with talented teams.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they've chosen the right objectives and the wrong objectives. Many have succeeded. Others of them have failed. And today I'm going to share with you what really makes a difference. That's what's crucial.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How and why they said meaningful and audacious goals. The right goals for the right reasons. Let's go back to 1975.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yep, this is me. I got a lot to learn, I'm a computer engineer, I got long hair, but I'm working under Andy Grove.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who's been called the greatest manager of his or any other era. Andy was a superb leader and also a teacher. And he said to me, John, it almost doesn't matter what you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Execution is what matters the most. And so Andy invented a system called Objectives and Key Results. Kind of rolls off the tongue, doesn't it? And it's all about excellent execution.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So here's a classic video from the 1970s of Professor Andy Grove.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Objectives and key results, or OKRs, are a simple goal-setting system. And they work for organizations, they work for teams, they even work for individuals.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The objectives are what you want to have accomplished. The key results are how I'm going to get that done. Objectives, key results, what and how. But here's the truth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Many of us are setting goals wrong, and most of us are not setting goals at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of organizations set objectives and meet them. They ship their sales, they introduce their new products, they make their numbers. But they lack a sense of purpose to inspire their teams. So how do you set these goals the right way?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First, you must answer the question, why? Why? Because truly transformational teams


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Combined their ambitions to their passion and to their purpose. And they develop a clear and compelling sense of why. I want to tell you a story.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I work with a remarkable entrepreneur. Her name is Jeannie Kim. She runs a company called Nuna. Nuna is a healthcare data company.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And when Nuna was founded, they used data to serve the health needs of lots of workers at large companies.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then two years into the company's life, the federal government issued a proposal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To build the first ever cloud database for Medicaid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now you'll remember that Medicaid is that program that serves 70 million Americans, our poor, our children, and people with disabilities.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nuna, at the time, was just 15 people, and this database had to be built in one year. And they had a whole set of commitments that they had to honor. And frankly, they weren't going to make very much money on the project. This was a bet-your-company moment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Jeannie seized it. She jumped at the opportunity she did not flinch. Why? Well, it's a personal why. Jeannie's younger brother, Gee Mong, has autism.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And when he was seven, he had his first ground mal seizure at Disneyland. He fell to the ground. He stopped breathing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jeannie's parents are Korean immigrants. They came to the country with limited resources, speaking little English.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it was up to Jeannie to enroll her family in Medicaid. She was nine years old.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To find her mission. And that mission became her company.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that company bid on one and delivered on that contract. Here's Genie to tell you why.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Genie's story tells us that a compelling sense of why can be the launch pad for our objectives. Remember that's what we want to have accomplished. And objectives are significant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're action-oriented. They are inspiring. And they're a kind of vaccine against fuzzy thinking.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You'd think a rock star would be an unlikely user of objectives and key results. But for years, Bono has used OKRs to wage a global war against poverty and disease.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And his one organization has focused on two really gorgeous, audacious objectives. The first is debt relief for the poorest countries in the world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The next is universal access to anti-HIV drugs. Now why are these good objectives? Let's go back to our checklist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Significant? Check. Concrete? Yes. Action-oriented? Yes. Inspirational? Let's just listen to Bono.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love that. OKRs cultivate the madness. And magic is right around the corner. This is perfect.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So with Jeannie, we've covered the whys. With Bono, the whats of goal setting. Let's turn our attention to the hows. Remember the hows are the key results.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's how we meet our objectives and good results are specific and time bound. They're aggressive, but realistic. They're measurable and they're verifiable. Those are good key results.

[Assistant] In 1999, I introduced OKRs to Google's co-founders, Larry and Sergey. Here they are, 24 years old, in their garage. And Sergey enthusiastically said he'd adopt them. Well, not quite.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What he really said was, we don't have any other way to manage this company, so we'll give it a go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They've graded them and they've published them for everyone to see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And these are not used for bonuses or for promotions. They're set aside. They're used for a higher purpose. And that's to get collective commitment to truly stretch goals.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In 2008, a Googler, Sundar Pichai, took on an objective, which was to build the next generation client platform for the future of web applications. In other words, build the best browser.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was very thoughtful about how he chose his key results. How do you measure the best browser? It could be ad clicks or engagement or Repnol. He said, numbers of users.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because users are going to decide if Chrome is a great browser or not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So he had this one three-year-long objective, build the best browser, and then every year, he stuck to the same key results, numbers of users, but he upped the ante, and the first year, his goal was 20 million users, and he missed it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Got less than 10. Second year, he raised the bar to 50 million. He got to 37 million users. Somewhat better. In the third year,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He upped the ante once more to 100 million. He launched an aggressive marketing campaign, broader distribution, improved the technology, and kaboom! He got 111 million users. Here's why I like this story.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not so much for the happy ending, but it shows someone carefully choosing the right objective and then sticking to it year after year after year. It's a perfect story for a nerd like me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What really matters is the why that we pour into those vessels. That's why we do our work. OKRs are not a silver bullet. They're not going to be a substitute for a strong culture or for stronger leadership.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But when those fundamentals are in place, they can take you to the mountaintop. I want you to think about your life for a moment. Do you have the right metrics?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Take time to write down your values, your objectives, and your key results. Do it today.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you'd like some feedback on them, you can send them to me. I'm John at WhatMatters.com.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If we think of the world-changing goals of an Intel, of a Nuna, of Bano, of Google, they're remarkable. Ubiquitous computing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Affordable healthcare, high quality for everyone. Ending global poverty. Access to all the world's information. Here's the deal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every one of those goals is powered today by OKRs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I want you to join me in this movement. Let's fight for what it is that really matters. Because we can take OKRs beyond our businesses. We can take them to our families, to our schools, even to our governments.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We can hold those governments accountable. We can transform those informations. We can get back on the right track.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's gonna be interesting working as one kitchen because we're seven tremendously different people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I pulled the meat dish. I'm very comfortable with meat. I like cooking meat and I liked the ingredients that Harold selected. But I knew that it had to be done perfectly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna clean, I'm gonna plate them all here. I think Miguel is way too much charge of Andrea cooking his dish. You know, it is a cooking competition and I don't think Andrea is playing it particularly well right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're all here for different reasons. Not everyone's here to win. Some people are here for the impact they make in other people's lives.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I've received hate online. A lot of it. And it comes with the territory of my work. I'm a digital creator. I make things specifically for the internet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like a few years ago, I made a video series called Every Single Word, where I edited down popular films to only the words spoken by people of color as a way to empirically and accessibly talk about the issue of representation in Hollywood.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then, later as transphobic bathroom bills started gaining media attention around the United States, I hosted and produced an interview series called Sitting in Bathrooms with Trans People, where I did exactly that. And then, I'm sure I'll take applause. Thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Great, so I satirized those in a weekly series where instead I unboxed intangible ideologies like police brutality, masculinity and the mistreatment of Native Americans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was called everything, from beta to snowflake, and of course, the ever-popular cuck.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't worry, I will break these terms down for you. So beta, for those of you unfamiliar, is shorthand online lingo for beta male. But let's be real, I wear pearl earrings and my fashion aesthetic is rich white woman running errands, so I'm not angling to be an alpha.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But my favorite, favorite, favorite is cuck. It's a slur, short for cuckold, for men who have been cheated on by their wives. But friends, I am so gay that if I had a wife, I would encourage her to cheat on me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's take a look at some of this negativity in action. Uhm, sometimes it's direct, like Marcos, who wrote, Thank you, Marcos. Others are more concise, like Donovan, who wrote, Now, I do need to point out, Donovan is not wrong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's fun to talk about these messages now, right? And it's cathartic to laugh at them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At first, I would screenshot their comments and make fun of their typos, but this soon felt elitist and ultimately unhelpful. So over time, I developed an unexpected coping mechanism.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I could see pictures they were tagged in, posts they'd written, memes they'd shared, and somehow seeing that it was a human on the other side of the screen made me feel a little better. Not to justify what they wrote, right, but just to provide context. Still, that didn't feel like enough. So I called some of them, only the ones I felt safe talking to, with a simple opening question. Why did you write that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was so nervous for our first conversation. This wasn't a comment section, so I couldn't use tools like muting or blocking. Of course, I guess, uhm, I could have hung up on him. But I didn't want to, because I liked talking to him, because I liked him. Here's a clip of one of our conversations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Josh, you said that you're about to graduate high school, right? How is high school for you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I also just want to let you know, Josh, I was bullied in high school too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So did our common ground of being bullied in high school erase what he wrote me? No.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Absolutely. I didn't stop there, because some of the hate I received was from my side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So when Matthew, a queer liberal artist like me, publicly wrote that I represented some of the worst aspects of liberalism, I wanted to ask him this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the end of my call with a guy named Doug, who had written that I was a talentless propaganda hack.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, sometimes the most subversive thing you could do was to actually speak with the people you disagreed with and not simply at them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now in every one of my calls, I always ask my guests to tell me about themselves. And it's their answer to this question that allows me to empathize with them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And empathy, it turns out, is a key ingredient in getting these conversations off the ground, but it can feel very vulnerable to be empathizing with someone you profoundly disagree with. So I established a helpful mantra for myself. Empathy is not endorsement.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Empathizing with someone you profoundly disagree with does not suddenly compromise your own deeply held beliefs and endorse theirs. Empathizing with someone who, for example, believes that being gay is a sin doesn't mean that I'm suddenly going to drop everything, pack my bags and grab my one-way ticket to hell. Right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I also want to be super clear about something. This is not a prescription for activism, right? I understand that some people don't feel safe talking to their detractors and others feel so marginalized that they justifiably don't feel that they have any empathy to give. I totally get that. This is just what I feel well-suited to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I've reached out to a lot of people for this podcast, and some have politely declined, others have read my message and ignored it, some have blocked me automatically when I sent the invitation, and one guy actually agreed to do it, and then five minutes into the call, hung up on me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And with the internet comes comment sections, and with comment sections inevitably comes hate. So as you are watching this talk,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can feel free to call me whatever you'd like. You can call me a gaywad, a snowflake, a cuck, a beta, or everything wrong with liberalism.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But just now, that if you do, I may ask you to talk.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if you refuse or block me automatically or agree and hang up on me, then maybe, babe, the snowflake is you. Thank you so much.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was thinking of the final course doing a wine and melon pairing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think it had nothing to do with me getting the fish.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think the guy is a great food science, but he's a front of the house person. I mean, it's not about the front of the house right now. It's about the kitchen, and I've proven myself in the kitchen. Done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I look forward to working with all of you at one point in my career or another. And I thank you very much for giving me this opportunity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What do I have ingredient wise? I've got John Dory. I'm just not exuding confidence. Time is short, so it's something I need to do sooner versus later. Cause there won't be later.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Serve your food. Serve- serving. I think it's a little ridiculous. Working in teams means working in teams, but completing the dish that you've selected.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not ready to give up on her. I'm not ready to give up on myself. I'm very passionate about what I do. Because I really am talented, dammit. And I'm pissed that I... I just keep...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm holding myself back now and I would like more time to prove that I can do it because I know I can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was really impressed at the level of cooking, at how they really wanted to just make their dishes, even though they weren't cooking them anymore, as good as they could be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think there could have been more flavor out of them. Certain things are becoming apparent. Certain people's skills, experience are definitely starting to show for better or worse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Stephen, the soup was delicious, it was rich. I loved the pancetta wrapped chanterelle. It was a really smooth dish that I really enjoyed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I deserve to be here and being Top Chef is definitely important to me. Especially coming in without a formal culinary training. I'm here $100,000. I'm to take it home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are taking one ingredient or similar ingredients and creating two preparations of each.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel really good about everything I've chosen. Everything really just tight and beautiful. I feel good, but, you know, it's not over till it's over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're starting off with, uhm, scallops two ways. We're moving on to, uh, artichoke preparations two ways. And then going into fish after that. And then the meat courses veal two ways. And then we're also gonna finish it off with two desserts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's all about tomorrow. We are moving along really well. Steven and Dave, they're executing my vision.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't disappear on me. Huh? Don't disappear on me. No, no, you're right here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so two different preparations on, uhm, Diver Scallops. The first is just a seared Diver Scallop wrapped in a charred ramp, and then that's finished with just a little bit of squid ink emulsion. Mr. Neamport, we have Scallop Crudo. It's a one scallop in sashimi style slices, with a little bit of grapefruit segments, some myra lemon in the middle, and then sweet kumquats. Please enjoy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I trust they with sauces, but you're a little hungover and your palate's not there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What Lorraine you have, it's an artichoke risotto. A brune wall of artichokes that have been creamed out, risotto style. If you are eating the risotto, you should have multiple chewy on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the next course we have, uh, bronzino. The ladies all have the steamed bronzino. It's a sort of a play on ratatouille. So we have the, uh, seared tomato underneath the fish. Then the red pepper element is actually the emulsion on top. Gentlemen, you are having the crispy bronzino. It's served with a little bit of homemade black olive pappardelle. I think sometimes


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fish gets oversauced and you lose the fish. So I like to keep really light sauces or no sauces at all. Please enjoy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, really quickly, the gentlemen are having their Primitivo, and then the ladies are having their Amarone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, no, you're actually drinking the burrollo, and the primitivo is in there. Gentlemen, you are drinking the Brunello, and you are also indulging in a little bit of center cut veal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the desserts. Ladies are eating the golden raisin bread pudding.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I cook the way I want to eat. That's really important to me. I think cooking to please other people to me just falls short.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If it didn't work, then, you know, we took a risk, but in 10 courses, if we failed once, I'm sorry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm really proud of what I put forward today. I don't know that I have a favorite. I think the panna cotta with the...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, passion fruit was just a firecracker. Everybody loved that. Yeaah. It was really good. I gave Dave a, you know, directive of exactly what I wanted, and he came through with it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I couldn't be more blessed with the people that I ended up with today. Like, I really enjoyed them as people and as cooks. Steven was a tremendous asset to me. So was Dave.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know what to say to that. It's heartbreaking in a lot of ways that they thought that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I consistently take risks. And sometimes to my detriment. And sometimes it works out. And if every great chef played it safe all the time, I don't know, I think it would be to everyone's detriment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Steven, please pack your knives and go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And by the end of the day, three of you will have tickets to Vegas, and one of you will have a ticket home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Three chefs will be going to the Top Chef Finale in Las Vegas, and one of you will be packing your bags and going home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Leanne and Tiffany, one of you will be going to the Top Chef finale in Las Vegas, and one of you will be packing your bags and going home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Leanne, one of you will be going to the Top Chef finale in Las Vegas, and one of you will be packing your bags and going home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everyone's sharing. The flavors were great on everything. It just kinda takes away from it.

[Assistant] Let's choose to edit XYZ values. The background of these cells turns white. It lets you edit them. Edit the ones that you want.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whether in tech or finance, sports or the service industry, every day we seem to hear another story about an abuse of power or another grossly inappropriate workplace behavior.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People are furious. They're taking to Twitter and social media to voice that this must change.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not just about sexual harassment, but to encourage people to come forward about harassment and discrimination based on other characteristics such as age, disability or ethnicity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You see, most of us will at some point in our lives experience workplace harassment or discrimination.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Research shows that particularly women, people of color and people who openly identify as LGBTQI are likely to be targeted. And for some people, this is a pervasive and persistent part of their reality.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And for most of these people, 98 percent, according to some studies, most of these people will never speak up and tell their employer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Too often, harassment and discrimination is a lonely and isolating experience. But we need to help people out from under their desks. We need to empower people to have a voice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The reasonable first question that everybody asks once they've been harassed is, what do I do now? And this is what I want to help you with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How can we speak up in a society that too often discredits or diminishes our experiences? How can we speak up in a society that is likely to be retributive towards us? How can we deal with the silencing that goes on all around us? Making matters worse,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Often, our memories are the only evidence we have of what happened. Now here's where I can come in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After looking at lab reports and working, studying this issue, both in the courtroom and in research settings,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've dissected all the different things that can go wrong with our memories that can really threaten your case. And now I'm turning my attention to helping people tackle recording and reporting of workplace harassment and discrimination.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want to help you turn your memory into evidence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Evidence that even a memory skeptic like me is unlikely to find fault with. First of all,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] James Comey had it right. The former head of the FBI used to sit in his car, lock himself in after meetings with the president and write down absolutely everything he could remember about what happened. The now famous recordings proved to be quite useful later on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Be like Comey. Now you don't need to lock yourself into your car to do this, but please, immediately after something happens, I want you to contemporaneously record what happened.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And do this before talking to anyone else about it. Because as soon as you share your story with friends or family or colleagues or therapists, you have the potential to distort or change your memory of the event.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Too often we see that people bring out Facebook messages, they bring out timestamp pieces of evidence, but sure, they're not particularly relevant, they're not particularly useful.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's easy to write an emotional unstructured account of what happened, understandable because it's an emotional experience. But those might not actually be the details that matter later on for an investigation. Write down this list.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want you to keep track of this and simply fill in the blanks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Second, who was there? Were there any witnesses? This becomes crucial potentially later on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What exact time and date did this happen? What location, where did this happen? Who did you tell after the event? How did it make you feel during and after it happened? And is there any other evidence, such as WhatsApps, photos or emails, that might lend more credibility to your case?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These are all details that are incredibly easy to record contemporaneously, but are also incredibly easy to forget later on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Humans, according to research, often overestimate their ability to remember important emotional details later on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Assume that you're going to forget. Assume you have to write it down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now these three pieces of advice are a good start. But of course, they don't overcome a lot of the other barriers to reporting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have an online anonymous reporting tool. Only that way, they say, can you truly overcome many of the fears associated with reporting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And taking and applying the memory science, the science that I'd been doing for many years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I sat down with a number of people, and we together created TalkToSpot.com.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now you have the power to walk through an evidence-based memory interview.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now this is called a cognitive interview. This is the same technique that police use when they're doing their job properly. So best case scenarios, people who are being asked about important emotional events are being asked in line with the cognitive interview. Now this walks you through


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All the relevant information so that at the end, after you've talked to the bot, which is an automatic,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Messaging system. After you've talked to the bot, it generates a PDF record that's timestamped and securely signed that you can keep for yourself as evidence in case you want to share it later, or you can submit it to your employer right away.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in line with recommendations, you can submit it to your employer anonymously.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Organizations work with us and are truly committed to doing something about workplace harassment and discrimination. They're also able to respond to you even if you've chosen to stay anonymously.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We think it's important that you can work together with your employer to tackle this issue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We think that everybody wins when we bring light into this dark issue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whether it happens to you or to someone you know, recording and reporting what happened can really improve how we talk about these issues.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if you're an organization, this is a call to give your employees access to better and more effective reporting mechanisms. We know that the current methods that are used in most organizations don't work effectively.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's time for us to give a voice to those who have for too long been denied one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's time for us to celebrate those who come forward even if they feel they need to stay anonymous to stay mass to do so. It's time for a reporting revolution. Thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Make something, for example, like this, gr equals gamma. Make sure that it has the correct template for gamma ray and sample it from the log that we're using on the right side of the equal sign here. When we hit enter, we will have a new gamma log called gr and we can display it in our well section window.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this is our smooth log. It is GR. The gamma log is still like we had originally.

[Assistant] Patrel can also calculate simple volumes using the inspector.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And its values will appear here in the inspector. Now, this has to be a regular surface and not a structured surfaces. Structured surfaces just don't work this way. There is a 2D volumetric tab here. If this is a structure surface, you just don't see that tab. So if you expand that tab here, we can enter the parameters. First,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Base level contact is going to be a surface and if we put in surface it gives us a place to put a blue arrow in and we can enter the surface name. If it's just going to be a constant value there's a place to put in a constant value. You can put in a bounding polygon if you want right here. Put in


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Constant values or surfaces for nectar growth, porosity, and water saturation. Depending on what you put in, here's a constant value. So we've put in .35. You can use the slider bar or you can just put in numbers. Similarly with porosity, with water saturation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can change these to be surfaces and put a surface in if you want. You can also enter BO for oil. So here we can just
