[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where did we meet? Hang on. Hang on. Where did we meet?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm doing good. How are you? I'm doing well. I feel like every time I see you, something great has happened to you. Yeah. In this case, the Red Sox won the World Series. I know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that's excellent advice. Yeaah. Yeaah. Did you, you didn't bring your wife and daughter to the game. How old's your daughter now? Ah, she's gonna be two in January. Oh, two in January. That's cute. So did she watch the games with you at home?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You got a couple of lines, but you're with you in the movie, right? I mean, you have a scene with Hugh Jackman. He plays Gary Hart. Yes, he does. Which just seems like, was from a much, uh, more innocent time, I guess, in a way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Acting is acting. It makes no difference. Whether you're faking it or real. Well it's great to see you. Congratulations on the movie. It's called The Front Runner. It opens in theaters on November 6th. And you can see Bill live at Madison Square Garden on November 7th. That's pretty great. That's amazing. Bill Burr everybody.

[Assistant] Hi, I'm Jimmy Kimmel. If you want to see all our latest videos, click the subscribe button. And if you don't, click anyway and close your eyes when they come on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't worry, I'm here to speak for the Georgians that can't speak for themselves right now. Senator Raphael Warnock, is that you? Georgians don't want someone to speak for them, they want someone to speak over them. Herschel Walker too. I don't think you have a firm understanding of what the people in Georgia really want.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's exactly what that means! I wanna get back to work. I just wanna wish Mr. Walker best on a runoff election yesterday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of the families that I work with here in the community, uh, both parents are working. They're working two jobs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mainly it's the wages, you know, people not making a decent wage to be able to support a family. Like back in the day, uhm, my dad even worked at the plant. My mom stayed home, raised the children.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that give us opportunity to put food on the table and things of that nature. And them times are gone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How many people have gone into a fast food restaurant and done a self ordering? Anyone? Yes? Panera for instance is doing this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and where I live in Washington DC, it's actually the number one occupation for the greater DC region. There are millions of people who work in cashier positions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is not a futuristic challenge. This is something that's happening through the, than we think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the popular discussions about robots and automation and work, almost every image is of a man on a factory floor or a truck driver.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and yet in our data when we looked, women disproportionately hold the jobs that today are at highest risk of automation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and that's not really being talked about. And that's in part because women are overrepresented in some of these marginalized occupations like a cashier or a fast food worker.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and also in large numbers in clerical jobs, in offices, HR departments, payroll, finance, a lot of that is more routine, processing information, processing paper, transferring data.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, it's not a good situation in the United States. There's been some excellent research that says that half of Americans couldn't afford a $400 unexpected expense. And if you want to get to $1,000, there's even less. So imagine you're going to go out without a month's pay, two months pay, a year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Imagine you want to put savings toward, uh, a course to rede- to redevelop your career.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People can't afford to take time off of work. They don't have a cushion. Uhm, so this lack of economic stability married with the disruptions in people's careers is a really toxic mix.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The New Yankee Workshop features the craftsmanship of Norm Abram.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] is the author of the book, The New Yankee Workshop, which is available in bookstores and libraries nationwide.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unless you. Absolutely. Maybe laugh or something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, first one out the gate, last one in if it was a horse race.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this young man has been, I will say, much more lined here in this town.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, when you're the number five pick, it comes with the territory, right? There's a model when you're pro basketball. You know you're only good as your last ganger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so you use that as a player to motivate you every day, right? So, you know, I was just happy for him, right? One, because when the ball came to him, his teammates had enough, uh, courage and, and, and faith in him to swing it his way. And when you look at the shot again, the mic can be running back. He wasn't hoping and praying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He let the thing go and he fell back. Like, you know, you had to do it. If you hit a good golf swing and you like, or you reach down and pick up the tee right away or the home run hitter batter. Suzy cracks off the bat. He knows. What's that? Watch this. Watch this set up here as the bird finds lost him. Watch it. Watch this. I'm fading off. I'm out of here. That's that's how, you know, that's how you know what it's on, right? But for him,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, people want to know, last time we were on the show, radio show, they were like, is this his turning point?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know if it starts turning point or not, right? But I know what.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel much better today about myself than I felt yesterday. Because he has the confidence that he can't do that. That's right. I mean, anytime you have a chance, if you ever hit a game winner, nothing like it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like a walk-off home run. It's like a walk-off, right? And you, you're there now. He has a chance to build upon that. And I think what has helped him is when they put, start playing Stevens again, cause they start cutting into his minutes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. Right. So you have to have some healthy competition here. Right. Cause here, neither one of them are going to be a stud three man in this league. They're just not. They're just not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Them together bring something there defensively that we don't have their energy, their activity level.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And where this takes Isaac Accord, I don't know. You know, Isaac Accord is never going to be a prolific scorer in this league because he's not a guy that scores.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can he be the post-up three guy? I don't know if you can be a post-up three guy. If you're not, you got to be able to stroke that thing, right? Right. And he's not, he's working on it, but he's not the guy that that I'm swinging it to all the time. But in the case where we are with the Cavaliers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He has to be that person because they're going to shade the Garland. They're going to shade the Mobley. They're going to shade to Mitchell. You gonna get these shots.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I think, no, I think that he missed it and he, you know, you know, you could see it. He has a knack for it. He chases it down and he's done it on numerous occasions here, right? And the other thing that the people on it, he is strong. He is bull. He is strong, right? He throwing people off of him, right? Cause he missed the put back. I was surprised he missed the put back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But for him going in there and keeping that thing alive, Brooklyn would have walked out of there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, I think, well, that's the problem when you don't have somebody can can handle like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it was the pressure, right? Cause we're playing at a frenetic pace. We're, we're in a frenzy. We had to, we were down 10. We sent you in a frenzy. 8 with under 2 minutes to go. And they'd panic cause they start throwing the ball everywhere, not taking it out of the basketball. And then all it takes is one slip up and then everybody gets panicked, right? You know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I played, I mean, so if you played enough, so if you're watching this team, Jay, you're absolutely right. They're scrappy team. No, I'm not saying it top of the league. They know they're not. They're not the worst team in Eastern Conference. I'm not gonna, they're not that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, they're, they're in a playoff run here, right? And I tell you what, if you slip up twice, you're going to take some elsewhere.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So let me get back to Jay's question.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have a hybrid situation here and I can speak to a hybrid situation because I was a hybrid. Yes, I was. I was starting and this one Scotty was coming up behind me. So they were Doug was interchanging us for a while here and then it ended up flipping and then because everybody has a skill set, right? Somebody doesn't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Scottie ultimately developed him to have an entire package. But if there was for a while, he had a skill set. It was here. My skill set was here. The coach's job is now to manufacture the play of these two. And that's not ideal, but sometimes you have to do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'm starting to, I'm starting a Coro because Stevens is much better coming off the bench, right? You have to keep him hungry, right? You have to keep him hungry. And when he's hungry, if you have noticed in the last three weeks, the Cavaliers got better because they inserted and started playing Stevens. That's when they got better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So no, to your point at the end of the game that if you've been watching, they've been trending with what's with Laverne on the floor. Yeah, right. He has been in the game, right? I would tell you that. Why do you think I was crying for Carmelo?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because there's a skill set that we're looking for. You've got two people that can score out front, uh, Mitchell and Garland.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mowgli who's coming and going like lights, lights, light, light years ahead of where he was. Right. Right. And you really just need the three man to be a threat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To score, like, so like last night when, when, when, uh, the vert found a core in the corner, right? Somebody I can kick it to here because when we turn to these playoffs here, when we turn to the playoffs here, what's going to happen is I have a week to zero in on you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have figured a way to slow you down, slow you down. So what are you going to do, bull?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're going to make a coral. You're going to score. You're going to have to score. But do you trust him to score? Well, we're going to find out what's happening here. I just have no faith in him to score. I understand why. I mean, I understand because I was in the gym last night. They were talking about the same thing and I said to somebody, you wouldn't, the problem is he's the fifth person taken.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know. I don't know. He's got the game and a half game and a half in the back. And then so fortunately the Knicks have the tiebreaker. Oh, they do. Okay, right now over the heat, but they play on Sunday. Yeah. Yeah. Let's go next.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But here, I'll tell you what though, between Spostra and Riley, give them a week, they're going to figure out the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm smiling because it reminds me, it's a beast when you have to do like this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You hear him coming. Hey, look, look, I like it. Is Scottie coming in? Is he coming in?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're playing Dominique Wilkins in Atlanta, right? In the Omni. I mean, this thing is packed, right? Anytime Jordan corners packed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dominique, I started off, I'm starting, I said, you got Dominique in 12 minute quarter, right? In six minutes of that quarter, Dominique has 14 points, 15 on me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 15. Wow. He banked a three point right off the top of the key. He and I still laugh about it to this day, right? So Doug is like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gotta go get bread. So I'll get the hook. I'm coming out, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dominique goes back and Scotty got it for the last six. He gives Scotty 14 more in the quarter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But when you're on the end of it, you know what you are? You're a VOC, a victim of circumstance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, he's in the gym. You heard, uh, you heard Laverte talk about it. He said, he's, he's the first person in the gym every day getting up shots. He's the last person to leave. Really? And he does that every day, right? And so if you're getting good tool this year, you should get better, right? I'm not saying you get 20, 20 points higher, better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's, that's the person you talk about because here's a bird playing out of his mind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you know, Bull is usually tempered in his praise for other folks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, I like, so, I mean, that, that, that, that raised my thinking here, like, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Years of experience here, right? I'm not drinking the Kool-Aid, right? Don't give me no Kool-Aid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like the acquisitions that we did, right? I think Bulls Point is exactly right. I don't need as many superstars. I need the people in the grunt work, the solid players. Those are the ones that make the team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It is the other guys that make the thing flow. And so I think Andrew's done a great job assembling that because I don't, you know, I wasn't the guy running around saying you got to grab all the high price free agents, right? Give me a bunch of people that can feel some void.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then I felt like, okay, now I'm putting the onus on, just like O'Coral, uh, Stevens put the pressure on O'Coral. Now I'm filling the gap. Now Miles, you gonna have to play here, right? Chubb, you gonna do your thing, right? Uh, Watson, you have to play. So to me, like where you are, in order to get better,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For me to move them up to what I say was a mic flippin. I say we're going to a B plus or a minus to get me there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ask me why I'm going this way. So why I'm going this way because we've committed to Watson, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You tell me Watson has an arm, his ability to make plays, make things happen. So I have to give him all the weapons. I can't give him a piece of a weapon, hoping that you're a weapon. I said, I got Cooper, DPJ, uh, uh, Eliza Moore, Eliza Moore. I said, I'ma go full wide receiver set on this thing here. I'ma.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He only got divorced because he told him the truth. I said in the words of Steph Curry, I see no lies. Where was the lie at?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was disruptive, but you've been in a locker room. There are many disruptive forces around here. He didn't tell them no lie. The question was, when he showed them that and told them that, what did they do about it? They tried to paint it like that didn't occur.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Scared man can't win nothing out here. Let me tell you something. So I'm going to take it back to my uncle. The bulls are on the brink. Pistons were the arch rival nemesis. In order for them to get better, they saw a person they hated and they sought him out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I gotta give Watson all the tools necessary because I've given you $230 million. I've made everything I have on you, right? So why would I not tool you up so you could be successful?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By accident. The problem here, I get what you're saying. Here's the problem. You know what neutralizes that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometimes the money neutralizes that, that fierce competitor that you have, that you had. As soon as you get that money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a formula, there's a formula, so I will tell you that I've witnessed two significant, because it's not about the money at that point. It's not about the money. You have, so Jordan, who is arguably the greatest player who ever played the game, who made, who was making the most money, had a fear of failure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I mean, I've seen some guys work hard, but he was, he was for, for a guy of his stature. It was him. It was him. He worked hard. So I saw another transformation. You remember when, when the Lakers and the, and the Lates?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Magic Johnson tweened out those two periods. Cause Magic Johnson was making a lot of money at that time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't either. I think two and a half. Maybe two, five years. Zeke's asking for his college number back, wherever he goes. Is he? Yeah. 15. Interesting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's soccer and baseball. The problem is baseball has not kept up with it. Baseball was that thing. It was. The other sports. They're playing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jay, you know you're not going to get Otani out of California. It's not going to happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Give me your honorable mentions again, Mikey.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's, it's Super Bowl or bust. It's championship or bust.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh no, what about this one? It's a moral victory.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The effect he's had on the team has been a super high value. Yeah, it gets discounted here in Cleveland or any market Milwaukee smaller places like that. You have this was going on in New York City. Oh, you hear about it all day long.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Against Donovan Mitchell's production is, is not, is no comparison, right? Right? But I'm saying the level he's delivering it at here, right? If it was in New York City, right? Your boy, Steven Smith was there. This would be the last thing you'd be talking about. I mean, you'd be here about it every day. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Mikey, it is, it is also the place that is being done in. So New York is so, so New York is so thirsty, right? If he laid the same track down in New York. Oh, that's the fact.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was playing, but he came here with a pedigree out of high school and we all knew he was


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'll give you that because David Bell is a high pick. He's got to see if he pans out or not. But so long we have three. I was getting greedy, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Scoring's way up. No, so the story is way up because they hijacked the rules. Yea, they have. This is ridiculous.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hi, I'm Norm Abram. Welcome to the New Yankee Workshop. We've got a challenging project today to build this tall 12 draw shaker chest. Now they are very rare, but we were lucky enough to find one out at the Hancock Shaker Village. And that's coming up next right here on the New Yankee Workshop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are many reasons to come and visit the Hancock Shaker Village. One might be to gaze at the round stone barn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like that too. I come here for inspiration for our furniture collection. In a recent return visit to the brick dwelling, I want to show you what I found.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This room is furnished as a cloakroom. And over here on this tailor's workbench, we see some material.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And tools that were used to produce finished cloaks, such as these.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What I wanted you to see were these massive units of drawers that were built into the wall in almost every Shaker community.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After all, they felt that everything should have a place, and that everything should be kept in its place. So with units such as these, that could be accomplished. But what you didn't see very often,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where massive freestanding chests such as this one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it comes from the Shaker community in New Levin in New York. No one really knows how they were used.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But considering there could have been up to six brothers or sisters in a retiring room, maybe each one was assigned one large draw and one smaller draw. It's a beautiful piece.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Made from pine with hardwood knobs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nice dovetails on the corners of the drawers and solid raised panel pine bottoms on the drawers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now considering today's lifestyle, this is a massive piece of furniture. But once you get up close to one of these, the memory lingers. And if you're a woodworker, you just can't resist wanting to build one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in the interim, since we looked at that antique chest out at the Hancock Shaker Village, another tall chest just like it was auctioned at the Fruitlands Museum in Harvard, Massachusetts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And a dealer bought it for over $160,000. I'm sure the shaker that built that chest rolled over in his grave when he heard that price.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But with that in mind, I needed no further inspiration to get started on ours. And it was a lot of fun to build.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course I did use some more modern materials. I used plywood on the draw bottoms instead of solid pine. I also used plywood on the back of the chest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now the chest on the exterior is all pine. And we're gonna use some cherry knobs. That's why I've left them off. I think the cherry knobs should be oiled, as the rest of the piece will be painted the old time shaker red. So it'd be better to put them on later.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now if you'd like to build a chest just like this, a measured drawing with a materials list is available. And you'll hear more about that before the program ends. I'd also like to take a moment to talk about shop safety.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Be sure to read, understand, and follow all the safety rules that come with your power tools.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Knowing how to use your power tools properly will greatly reduce the risk of personal injury.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And remember this, there is no more important safety rule


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] than to wear these safety glasses. Now if I had some 18 inch wide boards like the shakers did,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I could have eliminated this first step, which I actually completed last night, and that was to glue up some panels for the carcass of the chest. Two tall ones for the sides, one for the top,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And a smaller one which divides the upper group of drawers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now that they're all dry, I can remove them from the clamps, scrape off the excess glue, and sand everything smooth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now this step is known as sizing the panels. I want all my panels to be nice and straight and square. So the first step is to rip it to width. I've actually ripped a little bit off of each edge.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The final dimension now is about a sixteenth inch wider than what I want. And even though the saw cuts are pretty smooth, I think I can improve on that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'm gonna make one pass over the joiner, a 30 second of an inch on each edge. Now this is a large panel, so I've installed this magnetic feather board to hold it tightly against the fence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The next step is to cut the panels to the correct height. So I'm going to use my homemade panel cutter. And out here over on the left I've installed this floor stand as a support. And I like this type with the roller bearings because it allows the piece to move in any direction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well now we'll mark it for the correct height, which in this case is going to be 78 and one quarter inches. And trim it in the same manner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a series of hardwood runners, and the top of the runner is what the drawer will actually rest on. The runner is sized to be the same thickness as the rails, so as you open the drawer below, it won't tip out too far.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me show you on this other side where you can see it a little more clearly. The side of the runner has a little piece to it, and that spaces the drawer away from the side of the carcass.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now all these runners sit in dados, and I'll make those over at the table saw.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now there are 18 dado's in all that run across the entire width of the panel. I've set up my table saw with a dado head cutter for a three quarter inch width and a quarter inch depth. And by continually moving the fence to new locations, I can run them all through.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well because I've reached the limit of my fence, I now have to bring it back towards the blade and start working from the other end of my panel.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In order to conceal the edges of the plywood back, I've recessed it in the side panels. It sits in a rabbet, which I'll make over at the table saw using my dado head cutter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That they had joined the rails to the sides with a half dovetail joint. So I've outlined it to show you what it is. The top of the joint is left square. But the bottom of the joint has a little dovetail. Now that helps add a lot of strength to the joint, preventing it from pulling apart. So I've carried that through on our project.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now the shakers would have cut it by hand, but I'm gonna use a router and a little jig that I made.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now the jig is just a piece of plywood with a strip nailed on the bottom that fits into the dado I've already cut. There's another strip on the top that prevents the router from going in too far. And this slot right here corresponds to the collar that I've installed on the router.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've also placed a three quarter inch dovetailing bit in the router and set the depth so that it's exactly even with the dado I've already cut. It works great.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well now I'm starting to get ready to make the rails. And I have to cut a dovetail that'll fit into the slot I've already made on the end of each rail. Now the rail stock is an inch thick and it's two inches wide. And this is just a representative piece that I've used to check the setup at the router table.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I have this high fence which helps me guide the piece through. And because the piece is narrow,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like to use my combination square set on top of the fence to just guide it along, much like you use a miter gauge and a table saw.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's great. Now I'll do it to all the rest of the rails.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, that dado that I've just made is in the center of the long rail that goes across just below the small drawers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this vertical rail intersects it right there. Now you'll notice that that is also a dovetail joint. So I'll complete the cut with my router.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here I've just clamped on a piece of plywood just as a guide for the collar on the router.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've just completed making a dovetail on the end of that center rail. Let's check to see how it fits in this intersection. That's pretty good. I've also laid out


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The locations where I need to make a dado and dovetail to pick up the short rails.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is the panel that divides the upper drawers. It slips into a groove in the back rail.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These dados I cut are for the draw runners. I'm going to attach it to the front center style with some biscuits at three locations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now there's one more thing I want to do before I start the assembly of the carcass and that's to cut some biscuit slots in the bottom of this lower rail and at the very bottom edge of the side panel.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It'll receive this little angled piece which forms the shape of the leg.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I don't do it now, I won't be able to get the biscuit joiner in there later.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now we can begin the assembly of the carcass. A little bit of glue on the end of each rail and I've already installed some glue in the slot that I cut. I'm going to start with the back rails first. Just tap, gluing them and tapping them in place.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now I'm gonna put the back plywood on next, because that'll allow me to square up the carcass. The plywood has been cut perfectly square. I've applied some glue to the rails and the rabbet along the back edge. I'm just gonna slip it in. And as long as I hold the top edges even,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the sides of the carcass, it'll be nice and square.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now with one side attached and this top edge flush, I can now check the other corner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can see the plywood is above the side. To square it up, I'm just gonna push it down till it's even, and fasten it with some brads.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Boy, these are going in nice and snug, and with the addition of the glue, it's never gonna come apart.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now this is our center divider for the top section. A little glue at the cut out and along the back edge. And I can set that in place.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll just put one tack up here at the top where it's centered.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, just one more thing to glue up, and we'll call it a night.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now here I've used my tapering jig to make an angled piece for the front part of the leg at the bottom of the chest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well last night all the glue joints set up nicely, and now I'm cutting out the legs on the side of the chest. I've set up a straight edge clamp for the long cut, which actually guides the base of my little circular saw, and now I'll just cut the angles freehand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well now I'm ready to cut out some plywood at the lower edge of the back. And I want to do that so that I don't see it when I look through the side between the legs. But I want to leave as much plywood as possible on this edge to strengthen this back leg. Because after all, this piece is heavy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well now I'm ready to start working on the top of the chest. And I actually dadoed it in three places. Once along each edge to receive the side of the chest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And once in the middle for the center partition. And what that does is adds a lot of strength to that connection. To make the dado, I'm gonna use my router, which is equipped with a collar and a straight cutting bit. The collar simply rides up against the edge of my straight edge clamp.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, now I've moved the straight edge clamp a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that now when I make the second pass, the data will be the right width to receive the three-quarter inch thickness of the side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now the front edge of the side dados needs to be carefully squared off so it fits nice and tight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now this little rabbit at the back edge of the top will catch the plywood on the back of the chest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now I've changed bits in my router. I've now equipped it with a half inch round over bit. And because I'm only using a portion of the bit, I can't depend on the ball bearing as a guide. So I've installed this guide fence and now put a bull nose on three edges of the top.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now with glue in the dados and along the rabbet at the back edge, I'm ready to set the top in place. Once I get it in its final position, I'll fasten it with some screws.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now for the screws, I'm just using an inch and a half bugle head screw.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like to fill the holes left by the counter board with plugs of the same material. So I've cut some out of pine over at the drill press.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And all I have to do now is apply a little bit of glue to the plug and a little bit in the hole.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I built the runners for the prototype, I built enough for two, because I didn't want to take the time to have to set up twice. I want to show you what the steps are though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First I made two rabbits on the back side. And what that does is allows the piece to slip into the dadoes we've made in the side. Not too tight because I want the side to be able to expand and contract freely. Next I made another rabbit


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here so that it would be flush with the rail so the drawer will slide in smoothly. And I left a little material on the side so that the side of the drawer will not hit the carcass. Now all I have to do to set them in place is just leave a little gap on each end and put one screw right in the middle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well now I'm ready to start building the drawers. Now whether they're small drawers at the top or the large drawers at the bottom, all the construction methods are the same.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've already taken the time to rip to width and cut to length all the various components. This is for a large drawer. Two side pieces. Half inch thick pine that I planed out of three quarter inch thick stock. A half inch piece for the back of the drawer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And a full thickness three quarter inch piece for the front of the drawer. Now the first thing I want to do is make a seven sixteenths by three eighths inch rabbet on the ends and across the top edge of all the drawer fronts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One more rabbit on the draw front, and that's along the bottom edge, except this time it's only going to be an eighth of an inch wide.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now this half inch wide dado is at the back edge of the side piece and it will receive the back of the drawer, like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, a little adjustment to the rip fence. And I'm ready to make the last dado, which goes in the draw front. And it must align with the dado in the draw side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's take a look at one of the prototype drawers. The drawer front is connected to the side with half blind dovetails. The first part to mill is the tail that goes in the side piece.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I've set up my dovetailing jig according to the manufacturer's instructions, fastened the side piece in place, and now using my router, I'll cut the tails.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's take another look at the prototype. The pins, which is the end grain you see here from the drawer front, are cut next. So after making some adjustments to my dovetailing jig, I can route those out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well now it's just a matter of assembly. A little bit of glue on all the dovetails and the pins. And then I just slip it together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now a little bit of glue in the dados of the side pieces and on the ends of the back piece. I'll just slip it in and fasten it with some brads.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In each corner at the back of the ca- back of the drawer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if they're equal, it's nice and square. 44 and 13.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, that's good. Now I'm just gonna put one tack right in the middle here where the glue is. Hold it square.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good. Now a little bit of final sanding and this piece will be ready for the finish.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm now applying the first coat of finish on the chest. And I'm starting with a latex enamel primer. And I've tinted it gray.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And after it dries, I'll sand it lightly with some 220 grit sandpaper, and then put the finish coat on, which is going to be this nice, old time shaker red color, which is also a latex enamel finish.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know you can get a lot of satisfaction from building a piece like this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I know that there's more than enough room in there for my entire collection of plaid shirts and blue jeans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, for fun of all, I do for real just go to the movies and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We used to skate back then, so we would go skating and stuff like that, but right now I'm just more of a homebody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I was little, I had anger issues. I still have anger issues, but like, I'm more calm right now, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, hitting a million on Instagram, it was like mad fast, like yo, like I was at 80k and then, like, I would shoot for 100k, not a mil, but I mean a mil's cool, like it's good, but like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Damn, like yo, like they really rocking with me, so it's like mad, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the, uh, video went viral at first, like, I was mad hyped, like, I recorded it. I was like, yo, I'm out, like, I still had the story and stuff. I was out and people, like, it was like, like, they didn't know who Cardi B or nothing was. I was like, what the hell? So at first it was like no reaction, but then the next day,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's the dumbest play you've ever created that either did or didn't work?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With Dashawn this year and your running attack, are you going to let it fly or are you going to run the ball?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you need, have you ever given a speech like if we had 53 Nick Chubs? Yes. Yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, cause that would explain for why you didn't sit out the second playoff game after you had COVID against the Steelers, cause I would have sat that out if I were you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We now welcome on very special guests. It is head coach of the Cleveland Browns, Kevin Stefanski. Thank you for coming on coach. Uh, do you want to do the hard question first or the easy question?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We didn't have a lot of successful seasons. We were very good on special teams back then, may I note? Uhm, but even back then we didn't win a lot of football games.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And for me to be back around that I'm from Pittsburgh. Can't wait to play them twice a year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I love playing as a player. I can't wait to coach against that team, but I just, I'm just so excited to be back in a football town that wants to win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not too often that you get to actually coach a guy that you rank coming out of out of college.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the highest at that position. So last year grading, you know, all the specialists, the kickers, the punters, I had Kate at the highest. I'm fortunate to be able to be able to coach him this year. So I think that, you know, he obviously can improve and we're going to just coach them up and we're going to be, we're going to be, you know, as, as good as we can in the kicking phase.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, after watching the film from last year, I think there's a lot of good things out of Jerome. He's got good speed. He's got good vision. He runs aggressive and downhill. Uh, he had definitely a few.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause we're in Cleveland. That's why. Cause if it was in New York.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, uh, I mean, they just, they keep calling. I'm very grateful, man. I'm very thankful. Yeah, no, uh, and, and I don't think it's the end of...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] John Cena in WWE either. I kind of have to do a little bit of a juggling act because the movie folks are really leery about the insurance, but, uh, whenever I can come back, whenever I can come back to WWE, I certainly do. So, uh, hopefully there's no time stopping. I love what I do and I love going to work every day and I love doing stuff like this in front of people like this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So there's a crazy story behind that. WWE is a global company. We're everywhere. We're in 140 countries or close to 200 countries, like we're across the world. We're not in China.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, we were, we were privileged enough to go to there in 2010 to perform in Shanghai, and I took a look around in Shanghai, which looks like 20 New York cities. Right. I was like, whoa, we need to be here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I wondered why. And it's just because the culture doesn't understand what we do. And every other culture across the world understands WWE. Good guy versus bad guy, storytelling, cheer, boo, whatever. They just don't get it. And they don't get it because they can't relate. They have no cultural attachment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And uneventful, we had an event, but it wasn't anything special. I'm like, you know what? I'm going to be proactive about this. I'm going to start to learn to speak Mandarin because maybe if one of their top superstars can actually speak the language, hopefully we can bridge the cultural gap and WWE can truly be the global company that it says it is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But this is not happening overnight. I know it's not gonna happen tomorrow and it's not gonna happen next year, but I continue to work at it just like elbow grease. I never give up and I continue to keep learning and learning not only about Mandarin but about Chinese culture.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're currently filming a movie over in China with the legendary Jackie Chan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Trying, trying to hopefully one day, and I honestly don't think I'll even see it in my tenured lifetime in the WWE. I think the WWE's connection with China will be for the generation after me, so all this work isn't even for me. It's for the other guys, so they can go wrestle in front of all those crazy, wonderful, uh, fantastic cities in China.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before I really started getting into physical fitness, that any fight was a coin flip. And there were tons of fights, and I got my ass kicked, and I did pretty good, but it was like, when the fight started, you just kind of ducked for cover and came out on top, yea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So failure, there's a sentence in there specifically that says, if you only do things you're good at, you'll never learn anything. And just one blurb, and it's a two page spread and it's just the one blurb on the two pages. If you only stick to things you're good at, you'll never learn anything. So just one, that's one instance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And uh, the internet has had a feel, this is just the most recent reason I've been teed off on. Like I get teed off on the regular, which is great because you do stuff like this for young readers, and you meet a lot of young people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And man, being a young person and being an adolescent is extremely difficult, because I remember when I was in junior high, if I wore the wrong shirt to school, like the school laughed at you, and you're like, my life is ruined! Now the world can laugh at you, and like as a kid, I don't know how you handle it, cause I'm a 41 year old, and I'm like, haha, that's funny.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All the time. I'm like the most hated personality on WWE television. And the most loved though, don't you think? Yes, so that's what's weird. And that's also why I continue, like that support system and for everybody who's ever supported me out there, I really want to say thank you because it's got me through a lot of tough times. Right. A lot of tough, sticky situations of


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I tell my opponents good game after every match because I want to show them respect because of me and hustle, loyalty, respect. So to hear little things like that, it's like, it makes it all worth it. So I get bullied all the time, which is great because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When, when young readers are like, no, you're John Cena, nothing's wrong. I literally can tell them that and, and it's awesome because it plays out in WWE. So I can say, hey, remember the match I had with so-and-so? Right. Remember listening to the crowd where half of them liked me and half of them, and you can see their eyes go, yeah, that's crazy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you can relate to them on that level and kinda, I can bestow upon them, like, hey man, just be true to yourself. And as long as you're comfortable in your own skin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Call... Scott? What's this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I spent, you know, years in the labor camp. I confronted the regime also in the labor camp. That image actually played a key role.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I witnessed a mother with an infant talk face to face with the soldiers in the truck, telling him it was a very peaceful city.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, randomly, toward all the sorts of direction, two people, one meter in front of me, were shot down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had mentioned in my Hi High Puffy AmiYumi video that I have been in the mood to rewatch Teen Titans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's a pretty drastic change. I'm not here to tell you how you should feel or shouldn't feel about that show specifically, but maybe one day we'll talk about Teen Titans Go. But today, let's take a look at how Teen Titans, the original series, ended. As well as also how it kind of didn't, thanks to the trouble in Tokyo movie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To understand the significance of this all, we must know who Terra is. This is her. Now, clearly with this video talking all about the ending of the show, I will be discussing spoilers about the series in general.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just as a fair warning. Okay, back to Terra. Terra is probably the most unique character in Teen Titans. Whether that's coming from a personality perspective or a storyline perspective. At least in my opinion. I'm not you if you disagree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's great. But this is my video here, bucko, so hold up. Terra can easily be summed up as a conflicted person with powers. She has played both the hero and the villain, which makes her character and her relationships with the other characters more complicated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Flipping between who her character is and what she believes in, with a massive moment in the show where Slade persuaded her to the dark side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, this isn't Star Wars, more like the poorly lit but bright enough to see what's going on side. It just doesn't have the same ring, does it? Regardless, she was promised teachings of being able to better control her powers, something shown that she had been struggling with. However, this would require her full devotion and loyalty to Slade as his apprentice. Also, before we go forward, put this character in the back of your mind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is Geoforce, Terra's brother. Whoever since Terra ran away to protect others she didn't mean to hurt because of the lack of control of her powers has been looking for her ever since. We will circle back to this later in the video. Now a word from our sponsor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you to Surfshark VPN for sponsoring today's video. Surfshark VPN is a virtual private network.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Terra unintentionally moves a rock that Peace Boy was sitting on, and she confesses to him about not being fully in control when it comes to the ability she has, and how it can and has hurt those she considers close. Peace Boy, however, just brushes it off as no big deal, but Terra doesn't want the others knowing that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Beast Boy promises to keep it a secret just between them, bonding Beast Boy closely to Terra.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This relationship is important. These moments aren't just to recap and look back, but to set up the overall impact of the ending. We know two main things. First, that Beast Boy is showing care and interest for Terra, and second, Terra can't really control her powers, putting others unintentionally in harm's way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Throughout her time on the show, this would be the driving force that would cause the major divisions between the Titans and Terra.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Slade, the most interesting and important antagonist in the show, from the jump, gets inside Terra's head and starts giving false perspectives that don't exist. During the abilities test after speaking with Beast Boy the night before, he cheers her on and then, surprising herself, proves to the Titans that she can handle herself and her abilities with ease. But Slade makes himself known to the Titans that he has returned.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Probably from Prague or something, I dunno, his life, I'm not his assistant. Terra gets invited to trackslay down with the team and have a face-off with some robot minions. Everything is good until her powers go haywire and a rock she was controlling lands partially on Beast Boy. The rest of the Titans check to see if he's okay as she flees in fear that she heard another person that she had cared about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But she also notices a figure running by, and in thinking it's Slade, chases the figure down to confront him. Which is exactly what happens, but surprise surprise, Slade was baiting her in doing so. Just so he can privately speak to her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This thought gets planted in her mind right then and there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But as of now, she still holds that kindness and support of the titans at a higher weight and refuses the offer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He warns her that they will abandon her like the others have done to her in the past. This causes her emotions to take control of her powers and causes rocks and earth chunks to swirl around causing a bunch of damage everywhere.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Slade disappears and Beast Boy, who is shown to be okay from the rock incident earlier, finds Terra and is able to break through to her as she breaks down and cries in his arms.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With another plea to keep all of this secret as well. Later that night, as she is getting ready to leave, she gets another offer from the Titans to stay and become a Titan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All with the promise of her learning to control her powers, but her not being able to control them was a secret.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right? Beast Boy promised not to say anything, right? Well, of course this upsets her and she feels betrayed as she runs off with Beast Boy in hot pursuit shouting he didn't say anything. Well, because he didn't, Robin just figured it out. But he can't find her. All he finds is her hair clip.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The weight of what feels like broken trust layers itself over the rest of the series, evolving these characters even deeper, here with Beast Boy now skipping rocks where Terra once was. You don't need anything to be said to feel the impact, to understand these emotions, to relate to these characters that aren't perfect and can feel broken.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Terra does make her return later on in the episode Titan Rising, where she now feels more confident in accepting the original offer from the Titans to join and train. Everyone seems pretty happy to see her, all but Raven, but no one is 100% on the re-offering the spot on the team with what just happened earlier.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course, she wanted to explain herself and her disappearance as it was something that she needed to do to find herself and shows them all how in control of her powers she actually is now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The trust between the Titans and Terra is still, no pun intended, a bit rocky. But when a new emergency calls for their attention, she is invited along on the mission. Raven doesn't think everything adds up and can sense that something with Terra seems off and keeps an eye on her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this causes some tension throughout their mission this episode with conflicting thoughts on how to properly fight or solve obstacles in the way. But with Slade's plan to sink and destroy the Teen Titans Tower, Raven and Terra must work together as Terra learns about trust and what it means to work together. Training to control her powers and through this, Terra and Raven save the tower from its doom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Terra is also given her own room at the tower and is made an official member of the Teen Titans. But good things like this sometimes sadly never last forever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Only to be startled by Beast Boy who comes to check in on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's alright Beast Boy, I'm sure you'll get over it one day. Oh wait, she's back! Things are looking up for the shapeshifter. They leave the tower and head out for a fun night together. Food, amusement park, shenanigans, maybe even some tunnel of love? No? Okay, ferris wheels are a solid second choice. But it's what happens on this date and why this date is happening that are truly more interesting. Because of this date, at one point Beast Boy drops his communicator. Now there is no way for Robin and the team to reach out for him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Old! Oh, where was I? Ah, yeah. Back at the GT, a bunch of slayed minions have now somehow broken into the tower and Robin has been trying to reach out and find where he is as they all need help. Maybe this isn't a date and it's really a distraction. I guess you can call me Gibby since I'm getting ahead of myself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Action is going to happen, but we all know the title of this episode, right? It's called Betrayal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right? Everything is going so well for Beast Boy so fast. Terra though mentions to Beast Boy about still being her friend even if he learns and knows something bad about her. Of course he agrees, but before they can take their relationship to the next step, Slade makes himself known from the shadowed area in the same cart that they are in. I don't know, how you didn't even see him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A fight between these two break out as Terra just watches, grabs some popcorn, let's get riiight into the noooot. As Slade takes the lead in the fight, Terra's feelings for Beast Boy cause her to break the ground beneath the Ferris wheel, giving them a chance to escape Slade and dip into the House of Mirrors. But you know, Slade doesn't play around.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He pulls up and lays some big bombshells on Beast Boy 1. Terra has been a spy since the moment she's returned to the show and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Beast Boy questions their friendship to see if any of it was true as she reminds him of the promise he had just made about still being her friend no matter what dark secret she was hiding. Beast Boy, emotional in his own way, recants his sentiments, exclaiming to her that she doesn't have any friends. This broken promise crushes Terra heavier than the weight of any boulder she could


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Effectively pushing her completely to Slade's side as the rest of the Titans hear about what happened and prepare for future fights to include taking Tara down alongside Slade. This episode was powerful and puts the story building the show tends to do so well at such a high importance to set up the downfall of a conflicted character.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The portrayal of what was a real bond between two characters and the overall way that not just this specific storyline would end, but the series as a whole. After the earthquake comes the aftershocks.

[Assistant] Looking fresh in a new fit, may I add? Slade, feeling a little unsure about where her loyalty lies, questions her and makes sure that she has her mind right and offers her the chance to take down the Titans once and for all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She shows up to the Titans acting like Boo from Dragon Ball Z, not even fazed by them as her suit is assisted by Slade himself, allowing for an easy upper hand as the Titans choose to retreat, as we get a dramatic stare-off between Beast Boy and Terra before he disappears. Later on, before the end of part one, more fighting between Terra and the Titans happens. She wipes the floor with all of them as Robin tries to get through to her and help loosen the influence Slade has on her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that doesn't really work out too well, and she just crushes him with a rock. Robin's dead, Batman just finds a new boy to call Robin, and the day wasn't saved by the Powerpuff Girls. Slade is pretty happy about it all, though. This is his Infinity War win, he is the main character here now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, well now it's time for part two, where Terra claims to be sturdy in her decision so far, but is clearly still shaken up about everything that has and is happening. She's no different than just another criminal now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coming to terms with that and the fact that she has taken down the Teen Titans. But she doesn't dwell on that too long because the show is called The Teen Titans and not The Terror Squad. Wait, wait, wait. That's a great name.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But like I was saying, Terra gets her sad reflection time interrupted by the Titans coming back and ready to continue the fight. The Titans, however, are no longer holding back, and Terra senses how she just needs to get out of here. But Slade doesn't vibe with that at all and assumes control of her, and her power is forcing her to fight them. But they still are able to keep the upper hand on her, so Slade just sends out different villains instead, and Terra is able to flee.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When she returns to Slade, he attacks her for her cowardice she had just displayed, and now Terra understands that Slade never once cared about her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But just the potential of her powers and preyed on her emotions to manipulate her away from the only bit of people similar to her who actually did care. And beyond that, cared for her as the person that she is, not for what she can do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we all know my boy Beast Boy is a tier 3 sub and tracks down where Terra went only to be met with Slade controlling Terra to fight him. Trapping him under a large piece of rock as Beast Boy cheers her on that she has time to fix things and stop what she's doing. Turn things back around and back against Slade.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This caring, these words resonate with Terra heavily, finally giving her the strength she needed to find within herself to break out of Slade's grip on her, metaphorically and physically. But once she tries to attack Slade, a blast opens to a volcano that was lying hidden underground, which sees Slade fall into his Terminator 2 mode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, he's dead. But the bigger problem rears its ugly head with the lava threatening to take over and consume the city completely. But rather than run away, Terra sees an opportunity to right some wrongs. Beast Boy shouts at her that it's too late and they need to go, but Terra responds back with it's never too late. She says a final goodbye to Beast Boy and uses the full force of her powers to stop the volcano.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The result of this though leaves Terra casted in stone, representing a statue of her heroic efforts in finding herself, overcoming the control of her powers and saving those she cared about. The Titans place a plaque in front of the now encapsulated Terra reading,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's not the sad, dark ending I was actually talking about for this video. That was all just the understanding of Terra, her relationship she built with the Titans, and more specifically Beast Boy. Slade, while technically defeated, does come back a couple seasons later, but we must fast forward now to Season 5, aka the final season of Teen Titans. Things change. The last episode of the Teen Titans


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Beast Boy accidentally stumbles upon a schoolgirl who oddly looks exactly like Terra during a fight against this, uh, creature. This, of course, quickly flusters him as he heads to the Han Solo version of her from the end of Season 2, only to find out that, oh no,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The rest of the Titans can't think of how it was possible. None of them were powerful enough to do it. Was it related to how Slade came back? Is it something completely different? These are the questions to answers that maybe Sway head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Never mind, he definitely doesn't have the answers. Beast Boy confronts who he believes has to be Terra and explains everything about what happened, showing her her room that she stayed in at the tower, how she was turned into stone, and talking about this silver heart-shaped box that he had made for her, even bringing her to where they skipped rocks. This starts bringing back some painful, unexplained memories causing her to swiftly leave the tower.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She does, however, wish him luck in finding who he thinks he is looking for, and that they may still be out there somewhere. Beast Boy isn't happy with how she isn't remembering, trying to pull out of her her original self. Even going as far as to throw some mud on her to get her to use her powers again, but it doesn't work, she doesn't block the mud, it gets all over her face, and now she just storms off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Beast Boy heads to the mirror maze to come up with any clues leading to how Terra forgot everything. But he is quickly interrupted by Slade, who tells them that he had nothing to do with Terra. No involvement in who she is after coming back. This is what she chooses to be. Beast Boy gets emotional and attacks all of the mirrors, breaking them as he tries to attack Slade.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He doesn't want him to hurt her anymore, but unfazed, Slade tells him that the only one who's hurting her is him, and he needs to let her go. Beast Boy's powers go beyond what we usually see from him, thanks to his emotions, and he destroys Slade. Or another one of his robot versions of himself, at least. As he utters one final thing before shutting down. She doesn't want to see you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Beast Boy reaches out to the schoolgirl one last time, and she at first brushes him off to make it to her class on time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But in an attempt to try and break through to them about their past and to come back to be with the Titans, after waiting around all day trying everything he can between classes, she evades every situation every single time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is until he finally convinces her in the library to go out in the hall and speak with her, where he finally blurts out all of his confusion and begs her just to understand and explain to him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But she says what he is saying was never true and her name isn't Terra. Beast Boy's final effort is offering her his Titan's communicator. She declines and tells Beast Boy that things change. She is no longer the girl that he once knew.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Robin, who along with the rest of the Titans is dealing with the same creature from before, calls out to Beast Boy for some help in the fight. His tone becomes more defeated, begging one last time to come with him. But she tells him that he is the Teen Titan, and that she


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to break up all the tension. Even though this next part is hard, from all the intimate moments they shared, the bond they had in order to let her live the best life that she could,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hold on to those thoughts of her as a reminder of the good within her and find peace in knowing her path in life she now walks is for the best for her. She now slowly fades into the background as Beast Boy is left there, alone, to watch until the moment she fully disappears.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's Napoleon. Sorry, I broke the tension again. He stands there for a moment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coping with reality before picking himself back up and telling Robin that he's on his way to help the fight. He runs down the hallway for our final shot of the episode, with himself coming to terms with the decisions Terra, or not Terra, has made.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We even thought after the Teen Titans Go to the Movies movie that the post-credit scene alluded to the original Teen Titans coming back in some shape or form. Well, they did, but in the sequel to the Teen Titans Go movie, Teen Titans Go versus Teen Titans. Which, while it was awesome to see the original looks of the characters back, it was in service of propping up the Go series more, of course.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tara, however, makes a small cameo, kind of, during the musical number, Beast Boy reflects on her heroic, tragic quote-unquote sacrifice again. Remember, she's maybe, sorta, not really, but maybe, but also maybe not dead. At least the Tara we know before is dead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not really. There is a bit more to the story to understand left before we can fully get the whole picture.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After season 5 came to an end with things changed, Teen Titans was given a movie, Trouble in Tokyo, which would also technically serve as the series end to the original Teen Titans show. While the movie itself is a fine movie, it just doesn't have that final impact that the show did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Honestly, it feels like you could have slotted Trouble in Tokyo at any point in the series as a special or a multi-part episode, and it just fits, rather than gives you an ending that makes you never forget, like how Things Change did. I mean, the movie, like I said, is fine, they all save the day in Tokyo, and sure, it ends on a happy note for all the Titans, still set to go on their way and be the crime fighters that they are, it just doesn't hit me like the show proper did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's really more focused on the relationship of Robin and Starfire, which again, still fine. It just doesn't hit those emotional notes like Terra's story did. But hey, maybe that's just me at the end of the day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To top off the impact of Terra and her involvement in the show in relationship to Beast Boy, there is one last connective tissue adding more to it all, in Teen Titans Go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, not the show. The comic series that was based off the original show and would follow same or similar related story beats, and in some cases follow proper continuity when it needed to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We end the story as Beast Boy and Geo Force contemplate checking in on Terra at the school Beast Boy found her attending, but after seeing her to be the happiest she has ever been, they both decide to not intervene and let her live her life. A solid way to loop everything back around.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Find out more about who Terra was and to support her from a distance going forward.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So now she can have the chance to write her own story, rather than finding someone else's to just be a part of. Just remember, it's never too late, things change. Teen Titans for me is a masterclass in storytelling, emotional impact, and character development.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was only one example of how the show was able to juggle all of this and what on the surface is a crime-fighting superhero show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it intrigues me the most because of how the show ends. The payoff, or should I say, not payoff, of an ending that is pretty unexpected. It speaks volumes on how to write these characters, the relationships they have, and to properly articulate and show internal conflict.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It didn't treat you at any age like you are being talked down to for you to understand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It spoke with emotion in the dialogue and within the somber moments between.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just look at this moment again where Beast Boy stares at Terra before disappearing into the smoke.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To see how Terra affects the whole show overall and was only a small part of it in the grand scheme of things. It emphasizes her impact on the Titans and the whole show in general. The weight of her sacrifice is felt and never forgotten.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The way we find her in the end, representing that piece she was seeking from the problems she couldn't fix inside herself at the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But how do you feel about it all? How do you see terror in the show and how the show ends in general? Let me know in the comments. Thanks so much for checking out today's video.

[Assistant] Astonishingly started trying, holding hands, walking up the avenue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They are fresh. They can work faster. That's why when they recruit,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Workers, they look at their health. It is very important to make sure that they are strong and fit. You don't want higher sickly workers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of factories do not even have one day off. That means seven days a week, 13 hours a day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They work them like this for maybe 5, 6 or 7 years and then either they get sick, they get tired and they live on their own or the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Factory management will fire them if they are not up to the speed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they're not paid at all. They are given food because you need to eat before you can work. You know, it's hard labor. But they're not paid. The, uhm, the, the, the arrangement is that you'll be paid at the end of the year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Either the boss, the construction company, or the gang boss defaults on you, that means you are not paid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of these construction workers are working for the state sector, building government buildings.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] of the, you know, of the heap and so they are not paid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A plate for collecting things. Two patties in case I screw one up. Okay, so let's just, here we go. We'll just shake you up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, good enough, let's get some fresh tomato, get some nice fresh onions in there, and some nice cheddar, and a couple of raw shrimp. Okay, now, now put it down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I've gotten, I think this is the third simple key I've gotten.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some more things, but I think I saw all of his moves. And, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wish that, uh, like I'm petty, right? So people, I can't stand. I wish like they get stuck in freeway traffic and really, really got to use the bathroom and they can't go nowhere.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm so happy you're here tonight, uhm. It's once in a lifetime, you know, a song comes along that defines a generation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] John Lennon's Imagine. Marvin Gaye's What's Going On.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A song so iconic, it's been viewed nearly 2 billion times on YouTube. There's only 7 billion people in the world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm talking of course about the modern classic, Baby Shark.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And as a father of three young children, I've heard it many, many,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But you know, why should this song just be for kids?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's right mummies and daddies, tonight we'll be performing for you, the definitive version, the hit song, Baby Shark.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you have a lot going on in your life. You've got this new show. What is the idea? Real quickly, what's the idea of the show?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh crap, I accidentally just gave that person a new phone. Oh god, did that? Nooo, god, here it comes. Now Kamala's gonna yell at me. So now I need to ask these people for their accounts so I can look this information up. So Deborah here, we learned that her warranty is expired. No. Okay, now we got this dude. We can repair the phone right? I'm assuming that's what it means, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Come on, come on! Oh god, here comes Kamala. You made a small mistake. You should have simply proposed they change their battery. Ohhhhhh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, start the day, as always, with email. Kamala's letting me know that I don't have to ask about warranties. I can just look it up. Thank god. Ooh, look at this email. Well, hell yeah, let's reply to that. Oh, he already responded.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, one minute into the call and just like, so what's the problem? Can't find your phone? We got a solution for that. It's called call yourself idiot. Still can't find it? Well, then I can't help. Aww.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here's the chat log. Following our conversation about your phone issues. There we go. Okay, that got real creepy real fast. I just got the logs. Thank you sir, you've been a great help.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First of all, Kamala is letting me know. Lost Phones can now be accessed with the new GPS tracking system. May need the unlock code for their phone. Download the information. Once you've tracked the phone, download the information and send over email. The GPS tracking service is available to all for free, so feel free to offer it liberally. You got it. Aw man, I can't email What's-her-face that I creepily emailed. Wait, can I email myself? Is that what's happening here? Yeah, it's me. I bet you never thought I'd email you like this. How is this my life now? I'm doing tech support as a video game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well that was fast. One day with GPS tracking enabled and now it's a paid service. Customers without an extended warranty will need to pay to get their phones tracked. Oh wow, I have $511? I forgot that I get paid per call here. Man, $17 a call? I gotta work harder at this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I'm definitely not gonna unlock everybody's phone. Can I just forward this? Who can I forward this to? I'm gonna just start forwarding all of Kamala's emails to Lana for no reason. Here you go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me know in the comments once again if you want to see more tech support. Words I never thought I would say over and over again. So that's gonna do it for this episode of Let's Game It Out. As always, I am Josh. Thank you so much for joining me, and I will see you next time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's not a lateral move, though. No, it's not. I'll take that chance with 1 in 32. The shame of it is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what? I'm gonna take Deshaun Watson. Well, you're outnumbered three to one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he meant to type illegitimate, or so he says to us. So, but for a two-letter typo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The chairman of the Clinton campaign's emails may not have been spread to the world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where they worked on manipulating elections. Where at Christmas time of 2015, turning off the power to a quarter of a million people. The Russians figured out just how far they could go without provoking a reaction from us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] During which an FBI special agent was trying to communicate with a young IT professional at the Democratic National Committee who didn't even believe that the guy on the other end of the phone was an FBI special agent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Up the street to DNC headquarters?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did that once as we were writing a reconstruction of this hack. It's about a 12 minute walk if you stop at Starbucks to pick something up along the way. They never bothered.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They wait until two days before the Democratic convention begins and then lay out emails that was documentary proof that sows some chaos into the Democrats just as they're getting ready to meet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Obama could have destroyed computer servers that were involved in this. He could have stepped in to reveal information about Putin himself and his financial connections to the oligarchs. He had all kinds of cyber choices, and then he had all kinds of non-cyber tools, sanctions, things like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There were a few interesting things about that intelligence report. First it gave us no details. Second, it was incredibly late.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it took the intelligence community, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More than two months to be able to come up with a few sentences that essentially confirmed that story.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It didn't say they had seen evidence, although they had.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that was of course the famous tape of Trump boasting about how he would deal with women when he was such a star and, you know, he could get away with anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in retrospect, some people think we should have taken this a lot more seriously than we did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because it was the first demonstration that Russia was willing and able to use techniques against the United States that it had previously not dared to attempt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The use of paramilitary forces, the use of cyber warfare, the use of conventional military, all of that, and disinformation, amounted to an entirely new form of warfare, uh, what became known as hybrid war.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When Vladimir Putin looked over at the US presidential election, he saw one candidate who was voicing positions that were very consistent with what Russia would have wanted in the world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were almost the perfect target. They didn't have the full protections of a government agency


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they had much more valuable information than an ordinary private organization.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The help desk didn't know what to make of it. They didn't know if it was authentic. They didn't know if this person was who he said he was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And frankly they were utterly ill-equipped to deal with it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they didn't respond aggressively. And so for months, the hackers were inside the DNC, working away, burrowing in, collecting information, and transporting it overseas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was not true, the idea that Hillary Clinton was sick. But because of the way in which you were experiencing the news and what you were reading, you could spend your whole day being fed information that reinforced this belief that Hillary Clinton was hiding something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] President Putin's view of Trump was a penchant for authoritarianism backing off of human rights and talking about wanting to have a


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More positive relationship with Russia. What's not to like if you're Vladimir Putin?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so we didn't get a bet from Bet Rivers today. We'll get back to that on Monday, but I'm curious what the line would be for Matty C.

[Assistant] This is his last year before free agency, by the way. Yeah, that's what I said.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I saw a crazy stat. The last seven Super Bowls.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the two teams in each of 14 teams, no team has paid a running back more than $4 million a year. That's not true.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It is the Super Bowl team's leading rusher plus base salary.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the, just the winners, excuse me. Ah, okay. But still. Pacheco, less than a million. Camacres, less than a million. Furnet, two million. David Williams, 1.5. Tony Michelle. LeGarrette Blount, less than a million. LeGarrette Blount, even fewer the year before. CJ Anderson, LeGarrette Blount. Even the losing teams.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, just on running backs real quick, and this is why Nick Chubb's more valuable to the Browns than anyone else, uh, when we asked Dane what position groups are very strong on Wednesday, it's a tremendously strong running back group. There's a bunch of guys to get drafted, and these are the free agent running backs this year alone. Saquon Barkley, Josh Jacobs,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First team All-Pro, Tony Pollard coming off in his best career year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] David Montgomery and Miles Sanders, so just already between the draft and free agency you have-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He didn't have many carries, but something we didn't talk about, and I didn't see anyone really talk, he fumbled on the first carry he had, he fumbled out of bounds, and we got lit up by Justin Reed.

[Assistant] Will the joker win his third straight NBA MVP award? Three people said yes, and none of them are here today. All four of you said no.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And being second in the league in points at, uh, 33.1. As far as rebounds go, give me one second, pulling this up here. He's not top five in rebounds, but neither is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More than 100% more triple doubles. He has 21 on the season. The next most in the year is 10.

[Assistant] It's funny that, and this last point move on, Yannis didn't win his third straight because of voter fatigue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's, everyone you can find, he is right now the vetting favorite in the prohibited NBA MVP ladder. He is number one. Then, uh, Giannis is two and him beats three right now. Right. So question number three. Are the Boston Celtics the best team in the NBA? A split panel here. Bull G and Brad all say no.

[Assistant] Brad, this is your point, we'll move on after. Will there be a report that Luca and Kyrie don't see eye to eye before the end of the season?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because he needs to get paid. Yep. Alright, next question. You guys mentioned the Phoenix Suns. They are currently four and a half games behind Memphis for the two seed in the West. Will they finish the season as a top two seed? Another split answer here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you guys say yes, that is Jay, Jason, and Bull. Gbrad and myself and Tyvis say no.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'm the only one said no here, but will Donovan Mitchell finish the season as a top 10 MVP candidate? I'll explain my rationality. I got him 10th. He is currently 16th on the NBA MVP ladder. So he's got to climb over 6 people.

[Assistant] That's the NBA writer, uh, NBA.com panel of writers, voters like there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He deserves to be in top 10. Okay, let's go. Educate Young G.

[Assistant] The response we get from the Russians, largely what we always get from the Russians, which is, we're not doing anything. It's not us. I don't know what you're talking about. We would never interfere in your system the way you interfere with our system. Just straight out denials. We're not involved. It's not us. We would never do such a thing.

[Assistant] I still have questions if we're going to make sure that in 2018 and 2020 this doesn't happen again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We do know that Facebook-related posts touched about 150 million Americans that were posts that originated either through Russian fake accounts or through paid advertising from the Russians.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The paid advertising was really a relatively small piece of the overall problem. Much bigger problem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] was the ability for someone to say they were James in Washington D.C. but it was actually Boris in St. Petersburg creating a fake persona that would generate followers and then they would seed it with the fake information and the false news and the political content.

[Assistant] One account was set up to try to rally the Muslim community in Texas. Another was an attempt to kind of rally the right wing in Texas. They created an event.
