Arguably one of the largest investments some people will ever make, a college education is one that has seen diminished value over the past 10+ years. On the low end (public, in-state) the total cost of attendance for a degree averages about $125k nationwide. For private universities, that number soars to $270k!As corporate demand for college degrees has reduced, the supply of college graduates has increased, and coupling these factors with the soaring cost of college, this investment has become an ROI-negative proposition for many. In this episode we explore why the value of college has dropped what we think should be done about it.

Looking back at the post-Dan Marino era, the show believes this could end up being the best victory the organization has had in almost two decades. 

Controversy surrounds the question of who actually wrote the 1930 standard “On the Sunny Side of Street.”If you rely only on what is printed on the sheet music, you see Jimmy McHugh listed as the composer. So, why is there an enduring legend in jazz circles that the melody actually was written by The Flood's great hero Fats Waller? To this day, Waller's contribution to the melody line remains unconfirmed, but there is some compelling evidence that the tune might have been his work.For starters, early drafts of the song appear to be in Fats' own handwriting. In addition, it is well documented that during some hard times in the late 1920s, Waller was writing and selling a number of tunes to other songwriters.Maurice Waller Weighs InFinally, consider the testimony of Fats' son Maurice, in his 1977 book, Fats Waller. “Sometimes I'd inadvertently play a song he had sold to another composer and all hell would break loose,” Maurice wrote in the memoir. “One afternoon I was playing, ‘I Can't Give You Anything But Love,' and he heard me. Dad came storming down the stairs in a rage. ‘Maurice, I don't want you to ever play that damn song. I don't want you to even whistle it. Do you understand?' “I didn't understand, but later on he explained how he had sold that tune and other tunes just for drinking money, and it bothered him terribly that they had become hits.”And what about “On the Sunny Side of the Street”? Here's what Maurice Waller wrote about that:“The most vivid memory I have of one of those incidents dates back to the time when … Dad was listening to the radio one Sunday afternoon. Suddenly he became infuriated and smashed his fist through the living room's beautiful glass French doors. The song was ‘On the Sunny Side of the Street,' a hit record credited to Jimmy McHugh. Dad had sold the song for a few bucks when he was broke back in the ‘20s. McHugh also ‘wrote' ‘I Can't Give You Anything but Love.'”The LyricsMeanwhile, authorship of the lyrics of both those song — the work of teacher/poet Dorothy Fields — has never been questioned.Fields, who died in 1974 at age 69, was the first woman inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. She met Jimmy McHugh in 1927 and began a seven-year partnership that produced some of her greatest lyrics, from “I Can't Give You Anything But Love” to “I'm in the Mood for Love,” which was her first song to rise to No. 1 on the Hit Parade. Well, who ever wrote the melody — Fats Waller or Jimmy McHugh — the wonderfully bright, cheerful and engaging “On the Sunny Side of the Street” has been a favorite of musicians and audiences since it first came out. Ted Lewis made the first recording in 1930. But it was Louis Armstrong who recorded the classic rendition in 1934 and the song became closely associated with him. Other versions include those by Ella Fitzgerald, Dizzy Gillespie, Billie Holiday, Benny Goodman with Peggy Lee, Dave Brubeck and Jimmy Smith. Arguably the most popular arrangement was by Tommy Dorsey and the Sentimentalists, which achieved chart success in 1945, reaching the No. 16 spot on the Billboard charts.Our Take on the TuneThis 2022 take of our old favorite was the very first tune we played on a happy summer evening at the Bowen House just a few weeks ago.Veezy Coffman was just back from a month's vacation with her family and everyone in the room was so happy to see and hear her again, as you can here right here.The Flood has been loving this tune for more than 20 years. For instance, it was the 11th track on our first album back in 2001, with Joe Dobbs and Sam St. Clair rocking the solos on a rather mellow instrumental rendition. Click the button below to hear it:A few years later, the song began a long love affair with Floodster Emerita Michelle Lewis (now Michelle Hoge). In fact, it was the first song she sang in public with the band. The event occurred as the band traveled into the eastern mountains to play at the 2nd annual Snowshoe Institute, a cooperative arts project by Marshall University, West Virginia University, the W.Va. Humanities Council and Snowshoe Mountain. Joe asked engineer George Walker, Michelle's husband, to record the evening's performances for use on his “Music from the Mountains,” so we have this recording of Michelle's maiden flight with The Flood, complete with Joe's introduction:Yes, all sunny, all the time.

Morgan Square has been the most important public gathering space in Spartanburg almost since its beginnings in 1787. Arguably the birthplace of Spartanburg County after having been selected by four state-commissioned judges as the county seat and site of the the area's first courthouse, the area that would eventually be named for the Revolutionary War general whose statue it houses today formed the core of a new frontier town, stimulating the first wave of Spartanburg's development as taverns, hotels, and general stores filled in the areas nearby. As that frontier town grew and changed, Morgan Square changed as well, with each generation putting its own stamp on the space as the community's needs evolved over time. Even as the square has changed shape and configuration over the years, its position as a focal point for Spartanburg's people has remained constant. For well over two centuries now, Morgan Square has been the most iconic and important piece of public land in Spartanburg County. Today, Morgan Square appears ready for its next generational change, one that will build on its current success and ensure that Spartanburg's public square continues to serve the people who call it home. The  held its first meeting earlier month, beginning its work charting a course for Morgan Square's next act by getting a crash course in the history of the space from Spartanburg County Public Libraries Assistant Director of Local History, Brad Steinecke and Wofford Archivist, Phillip Stone. In a fascinating presentation, the pair led the committee through each of the square's various iterations and shared context around the decisions that led to each change. Today on the podcast, we're bringing that same history to you. So join us as we take you on a journey from Spartanburg's beginnings to its present day, and be sure to to follow along and see how Morgan Square has changed over the years.

This series of podcast episodes will focus on Decolonising Research, and feature talks from the Decolonising Research Festival held at the University of Exeter in June and July 2022. The seventh epsiode of the series will feature Laura Shobiye from Cardiff University and her talk 'Reflexive Positionality Researching Refugee Mothers as Radicalised Mother But Not Refugee.'   Music credit: Happy Boy Theme Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/   Transcription   00:09 Hello, and welcome to rd in the in betweens. I'm your host Kelly Preece. And every fortnight I talk to a different guest, about researchers development, and everything in between. Hello, and welcome to this the seventh episode of our series on decolonizing research. This episode features Laura shrubby from the University of Cardiff and her talk reflexive positionality, researching refugee mothers as a racialized mother, but not as a refugee.   00:51 I'm absolutely not, and would not call myself a decolonial, researcher, a decolonial, specialist, or anything along those lines, I think that it is a very complex area. And there are people that specialize in it and do it very well, that I have found very inspiring and that I have learned from. So my work is influenced, be by decolonial approaches, I'd like to think I'm taking some decolonial approaches, but I wouldn't put that label on how I've gone about everything at all. So if you hear things you don't quite fit or or you're not sure. That's partly partly why I've chosen to talk about positionality. Because this is something that I really reflected on in my work, and the title slide kind of gives away, why in a way that I found positionality a really interesting concept when I learned about it. But I really didn't know in some ways how to apply it to myself, and what it might mean for my work. And so had some learning to do, and continue to learn in that respect. And I've come to believe that like reflexive positionality, and in some research is well in all research. But in some in particular, it's really important. And for me, the reason why it was important was well, I'll talk you through that. But initially, just because I'm I'm part of a racialized minority, I'm a mother, I was researching with mothers. And but I was researching with mothers who are to keep the phrase short for now, from refugee backgrounds, which I'm not. So I think, all of us here with an interest in in decolonial research, potentially have that dilemma of how do I sit with, with the social group that I'm researching with my participants in the spaces that I'm going into for one reason or another, either because we are researching with our community, or we're aware that we're coming in as an outsider. But for me, it's a bit of both. So some of who I am, was really, really important. Yes, I was a researcher, a student, a doctoral researcher, but that is absolutely not the be all and end all of who I am. And it's definitely not who I've always been. And who when i Obviously I started the PhD, who I'd been for probably the shortest period of time in my life, compared to all my other identities and all the other characteristics that I have. And I didn't feel that I'd be going into those research spaces as just a researcher. My project is, as I'll talk about more is, is heavily qualitative, focused on subjective experiences. And so I had to think about my own subjective experiences and who I would be to my participants in those spaces, and and it would gatekeepers and who I was for myself as well. So I'm British, this isn't from London, but living in Cardiff. It sort of became more relevant as we went along. I'm a woman My wife and mother sister daughter, not a blacks mixed race. Dodgy typer. I am black mixed race. So Black Heritage, white as well. So mixed race. And I've taught ESL, to English to Speakers of Other Languages, I've taught English as a foreign language. So I've worked with migrant groups. I have   05:30 on the one side, a migrant background, although I was born a British citizen. And I've taught I've got PGCE qualification. I've also done project management, I have a whole load of other things and skill sets and and who I am. And I need to question do I bring that into my my research? Do I bring that into spaces where I'm doing research how much so and how much will come with me, whether I intend it to or not. And that's where reflexive positionality becomes really important. Because we may think one thing at the start, but as we go along, we need to be continually for me continually reflecting continually thinking. But all of that, for me matters in relation to who we're doing the research and for me who we're doing it with. So I was doing research with mothers, who were also asylum seekers, refugees, sanctuary seekers, force migrants displaced, sorry. And for those of you who don't know much about the asylum system, and immigration immigration systems, in the UK, I won't go into lots of detail on the terminology. But an asylum seeker is someone who enters the UK. For them, they're a refugee. And then they claim that they claim the right to refugee status through an asylum claim. So they're called an asylum seeker. It's a concept that does not exist in much of the world, in fact, much of the world, from where, from the areas where asylum seekers that reached the UK may have come from. And there are international conventions. And if I were not talking about positionality, today, I'd go into those in more detail. But in summary, international conventions, the same types of conventions that set up many various rights and international laws in the two or three, post Second World War decades, there is an international convention on refugees, often referred to as the Geneva Convention and a protocol that goes with it. And it's got the criteria for what should count as a refugee. It also enshrined in law, that right to claim asylum, absolutely. Everybody on the planet. According to that international law has the right to claim asylum. And you'd be granted asylum, on the other hand, on the grounds specific grounds in that convention to do with persecution, war, and so on. And in the UK, you may be granted asylum, and granted refugee status, which comes with leave to remain, which is usually five years now. But there are other outcomes. So that's not the only outcome, you may be granted permission to stay leave to remain, but you don't fit. The individual doesn't fit the criteria of the Refugee Convention and the UK legal systems interpretation of that. So then you might be granted humanitarian protection, discretionary leave to remain, and so on, or protection as a stateless person is particularly relevant. And why I've gone into this level of detail here for for women, because when the conventions were written, the fact that sexual violence is used as a tool of war wasn't, wasn't acknowledged or recognized. The consideration of an individual being in danger for reasons of their sex, or as it would have been seen, then I And for things such as domestic violence, again wasn't, wasn't really considered. So that is difficult to argue. Women are part of a social group. But if that whole social group isn't under threat or a large proportion of it, it's just that   10:18 that one woman as it were, it gets trickier. So, women in those types of situations may be granted another type of status. And which may be less than than five years leave to remain, there are generic terms or, or catch all terms because of these layers of complexity that get used. In Wales, which is where I conducted my research, sanctuary seekers, people seeking sanctuary is a term that is used to cover asylum seekers, refugees, anybody else who may need that, that protection and safety that sanctuary. Forced migrants is a term that is often used displaced persons, force migrants, some people love some really don't like and they get those other cat catch all for one of a better phrase terms are used for things such as climate change refugees, so we hear that expression now. But again, that that wasn't that's not a reason set climate change isn't a reason in in the international law. So in summary, to go back over all of those databases of waffled now, mothers, any any mother who says that she was seeking sanctuary is residing in Wales or was residing in Wales at the time that I was conducting my fieldwork in all of those aspects, that of self identifying I accepted participants truths, their identity and their immigration status. I it was, it's about their experiences, their perceptions, I wasn't about to check gender identities, I wasn't about to check claims of motherhood, nor was I going to ask for their legal documentation and go down the road of bordering with my research. So, but there was more more to that, that was those those three points were really effectively my my recruitment criteria, as it were. But there are other aspects to consider. They were visible and all Gristick minorities are for people who are racialized in the UK, they could be married, separated, single, divorced, widowed, they might be living with their children, they might be living separate from their children or some of their children. I did leave scope for for pregnant women. Or those who might be becoming mothers, by other means, student mums, working moms, they might be stay at home mums, which might be a choice or might have been their previous life or their current life. And that might be through choice or through enforced circumstances. All of these were things too, that I considered, that I knew were possibilities, but also that I found as I went along and learn about the women that agreed to participate in my research. So that is all really important for me, and I will continue to explain why in terms of reflexive positionality and the overall kind of overriding reasons why we're here today. And so it's kind of a question of what I was asking, What am I doing? Why am I doing it? So I have my own personal reasons for coming into this. No, it's no coincidence that I was a mother and I researched mothers. My research focusing on their educational and learning experiences, not a coincidence, I taught that I was a student, mother myself. And I'd worked with asylum seekers and refugees in the past teaching and as a volunteer on projects that had led me to a personal interest that had developed over time, but I really didn't want that personal interest to be that kind of that white gaze. So when I was then looking at that academic influences on my work and research kind of approaches, I'm really became informed by in summary Black and intersectional feminism and critical race theory.   15:07 black feminism intersectionality. Thank you, Kimberly Crenshaw, racial capitalism and theories of social reproduction within social capitalism as well. These are all relevant because they help explain the lens, the theoretical lens and the perspective. But overall, I was approaching my work through and looking at it through particularly, the more I did my initial reading, the position that British immigration policy is was, was and is both gendered, racist and racialized. I think, with the issues with Rwanda, and the questions that have come up with the treatment of Ukrainian refugees over others, I think that idea has become quite well accepted quite quickly, in some circles, but when I started my PhD, there were, in fact, I don't even know few months ago, there were people that would still still struggle to understand the structural systemic racism of the British immigration system. So I was looking at and I look at the experiences that women talk to me about through that lens. With that, I discovered decolonial approaches, and which I found relevant, because while there are the forms of model imperialism, which force people to flee from their homes, economic imperialism, political imperialism interference in other countries, the bombs that the US UK like to drop on places,   17:13 and then walk away from or   17:17 question why people are then fleeing from the linguistic colonialism that remains today, as a result of the full legal and political empire, with a legacy that much of the world speaks and learns English, which does have an impact on why asylum seekers may come to British shores. But it also had its impact on me. And why I'm only English and fluent and fluent in English, despite having one parent who wasn't only fluent in English. And the context of conducting a research in the UK where the vast majority of people don't speak more than one language fluently. Although in Wales, obviously, it's a by the UK is bilingual, but Wales bilingual nation. But I needed to consider that I wasn't expecting my participants to be able to speak Welsh, but that I would need to consider translation or interpretation or be conducting my research through the medium of English. It also again, coming back to that positionality and some of those things that I mentioned at the beginning about myself and about my participants was just acknowledging my own privilege as someone who has been a British citizen from birth, and my own potential risks of Savior ism, and that Savior Ristic voyeuristic approach that can be taken in research. And just because I'm from a racialized minority myself, doesn't mean that I'm incapable of being Savior stick. Some of this then also led me towards other methods for qualitative research, beyond observations and interview is dialogical interviews and looking at creative visual, participatory participatory action and collaborative methods. So those influences have led me to lead me to form kind of the overall shape of my approach. Direct, which is ethnographic. And it took me a long time, till quite recently to feel comfortable using that that word about my research because of some of the negative connotations associated with it. And to be sure that I perhaps had hadn't taken that voyeuristic extractive save your Ristic approach entirely. Qualitative, collaborative, longitudinal. And then multimodal, which is the the language and visuals, research. So my word supports more forms of expression and communication than just words, which I'll talk about more next week. I focused on both presenting and analyzing and use the word displaced but perspectives on educational experiences in Wales. I've tried my best to share stories, share voices and share. When I say their humanity as my participants. I haven't given them voices. They had voices already. And I'm not telling their stories. Hopefully, I'm I'm sharing them. And actually, today when I was checking the slides, I changed some wording that I'd used in the past, again continuing to reflect and it's a very humanizing people that have been dehumanized is how I would describe it in the past. But you know what? That in itself may start a started to make me feel a bit uncomfortable, but cloning realistic, perhaps I don't know the language but just sharing their humanity they would never dehumanize. That's something other people   22:06 have done to this group of women. I conducted my interviews, as mother to Mother conversations with creative methods, which I talk about more as I go along. I say Mother to Mother conversations. And, again, I'll touch upon this later. But because of the in my case, the particular perception of which my participants and gatekeepers have of the term interview. And I think when you're reflecting on your position, it's really important to consider the context of who you are, where you're doing your research, who you're doing with your research with where you're doing your research with. Me and I get in there with the thesis and papers, and multimodal, thematic and narrative presentation. And multi modal thematic and narrative analysis. So I've considered how I present my research, not just how I generate, I use the term generate not collect data, and how I analyze it. To me, it's an entire process end to end, and Western academic traditions. There's still a lot of work to be done there. I think in terms of decolonial ality, and the style in which academic work and academic research is presented. So what does all of that mean for my positionality? Well, really, it was mixed, like me, I have that is an intentional plan, in case you're wondering, and it was messy. So for those of you that have started to do some research, or reading around positionality, who know a little bit, there's debates around aren't you have an insider? Or are you an outsider? Are you a black woman researching black women for so an insider? Or are you a white man, researching black woman and therefore an outsider, and then it's not that straightforward for most. So what determines an insider what determines an outsider? Was I both with whom? When and where? And so if I was both was I both in the same ways at the same times in the same places? Was that consistent? Now it's was no, it was really mixed and messy. So to explain that I did my fieldwork in In refugee community and support groups, so yes, I've used the term refugee but again for that for all sanctuary seekers, their support groups, community support groups, women's groups, in particular, and they did that around Wales. For someone who claims asylum in the UK, if they and they need support to VAs vas 90 or percent do financial support, then they are displaced, which means they are sent with no choice to anywhere around the country to dispersal areas. At the time I was doing my work Wales had for the dispersal system is it changing, particularly in Wales in terms of how many there are, but that's how it was set up. And then for those who come through schemes like the Syrian voluntary resettlement program, or the Afghanistan one, and they are, are sent to other areas, so not dispersal areas. The idea of this came with the 1999 Immigration Act and you labor to spread the burden, lovely term. So that it's not wasn't just London and the Southeast and poor areas that we're we're getting the majority of asylum seekers. And that's how the majority of sanctuary seekers come to the UK now, it is as individual asylum seekers, not through schemes. So I traveled around Wales to the four dispersal areas and another area and spent time in these groups. But each part of Wales each of these four cities, has its slightly different makeup has different proportions of the asylum seekers and refugees population in Wales. So, but half are in Cardiff, which is the most diverse city in Wales versus Wrexham, which only has about 5% of asylum seekers dispersed there. And it's a very white population. So yes, that made a difference. To be honest, there also, I am in Cardiff. So some of those groups I spent time in, I took my children to I volunteered in and I just spent time hanging out as just another person there. Others I couldn't get to on such a regular basis. So I went for the purpose of, of generating data, of interviewing participants. But I also tried to spend time just on those visits, just hanging out as it were, as well. And, obviously, I was able to go to women's groups, because I'm a woman. So in that respect, I was an insider, they were run by women, they were attended by women in some of the spaces. They were centers and location where it wasn't just women present. But I tended to be in the room or in the group or there at the time that was dedicated to women or women and children. And I'm visit visibly black, or brown, depending on people's interpretation. And, and a mother and I took my children. So I was visibly a mother, where I didn't take my children to talk about that in a bit. I did make myself visibly a mother, but also audibly British. And I was talking about this earlier today, in some of those spaces. In Wales, where the population is 95% White in those spaces, it was assumed more than once that I was there as an asylum seeker or refugee. Which was interesting. And I don't think unimportant, I think it helped gatekeepers feel more comfortable with me. Arguably, it helped some of the women feel more comfortably comfortable with me, and we could talk about issues of race as well as motherhood and womanhood. But I was also British talking to people with very, very precarious legal immigration status while I have a very, very certain one.   29:53 So I've talked about some of this already, and that in some of my spaces, some of the spaces my status wasn't clear you immediately, and in some it was, and in some, it wasn't. In some it was perhaps unclear. But I didn't try and hide who I was, I was very honest and open open. And at times, I would be in some spaces as just a woman and a mother, a member of the local community joining in. And other times I was there, as the researcher, or flitting between the two and at sign times, I was both, I was in the space as both. And so it wasn't Not, not at all. clear cut. I'm just gonna check. Yeah. So on the right hand side of these slides, you can see that I've got a little clipboard. And I'm going to whiz through now some of the last slides. So I've been talking too much and give a chance for some questions. So what some of this mean, in terms of the practical realities of of how I went about things. So I had, as I said, that deliberate contextual ethical distinction from other forms of interviews, that asylum seekers and refugees may have gone through journalists, perhaps home office interrogations, police interviews in the UK or elsewhere. And that was really important. And I wouldn't have been allowed into one space by one gatekeeper if I hadn't made that distinction. And that I was coming in, as a woman and as a mother, to speak to women and mothers. In that regard, in that way, mother to mother not to go through a list of questions and interrogate. Now, for me, this was really important because I wasn't there to extract data, or extract information, I was having a dialogue kind of conversation with them. So but having a chat over a cuppa, for one of a better analogy, and sometimes quite literally, if it was in a space where I hadn't taken my children, I might introduce myself as a researcher, yes, but also as a mother and show photos of my, of my kids on my phone, they might show me photos of theirs or call their children over and chat with them. That rapport was built so that I could have that dialogue with them, not to fake friendship. And there is a literature that that discusses that. But to to build that rapport and have that dialogue that is, was conversing with with empathize, sympathize, we laugh together a lot, I laughed a lot in interviews with women. And I've maintained friendly contact between interviews, as I was planning a longitudinal, I say planning, because the pandemic got in the way, but I was planning a longitudinal piece of research, which meant I would be returning to the women to ask them if they want were willing to speak with me again. So I'm in contact contact in between. Again, if I'm you know, honest, there's there's something for me as the researcher alone to gain from that making sure I've not lost participants, but also is not being that extractive here I turn up when I want something from you and only then do you hear from me type approach and continuing that consideration so as I said, I generated generated data with my participants, not from them. So dialogue with them, they drew you can see some of the joints here. I provided the materials and they did the drawings with them for like photo elicitation. So that's with them. They chose the photos, they gave the description. I then edited photos later, and they approved my editing.   34:30 The photos were particularly important with the impact of the pandemic as I moved to remote methods and chose not to continue with such an a focus on interviewing because it didn't feel ethically okay. I chosen to go into women's spaces and take myself into their spaces, not bring them into mine. Because ethically that felt the right thing to due for their comfort for their report or for their well being in case they disclose things and got upset or distressed, I didn't feel I could do any of that. In the same way while working remotely, I didn't feel I could hang up the phone and leave potentially a distressed woman and not know what might have happened, that she might be on her own, she might have a children with her, they hear some of it should my children hear some of it, as well as digital exclusion reasons. So the photographs became more important. So I was hoping to collaborate and I tried to collaborate, but without putting a heavy burden of labor on my participants, so and different people will take different approaches to this. But for me, I can't pay asylum seekers, I didn't have the budget to pay people anyway. And I didn't want to be asking a lot of time and labor from women. I felt that would feel unfair. But neither did I want to be extractive so is that that balancing ground that I constantly and again, constantly considering my positionality, and how best to do that, to be collaborative to continue that contact and check ins get their approval through the photo editing worked, or I created visual digital stories as a little mini visual story at the top there. Where they were created of individual narratives and stories, they were pre approved, again by the individual participant, so done with them. That with me taking the burden of labor. So I had the privilege of time and funding to be able to do this work doesn't always feel like it as a PhD student that you've got time or or money. Not everybody has funding, of course. But I did. Whatever we think of the levelers of stipends. I could empathize with the women and as a mother, but I had an experience of seeking sanctuary in Wales or being coming from refugee background. I was trusted, I am trusted, as a mother of respected as a researcher. But is it always that way round. And I made mistakes, because I don't share experiences. And that privilege, comes with the thoughts of power imbalances. And I did have one to one interviewing where the power balance felt very wrong. I was there to get information to use that explore extractive type phrase. But really, this was a woman who was only speaking to me because she was desperate, desperate, being the right word for information. So I help provide that information and have not included, cut the interview short, and if not included that in my work. And again, continuing to consider my positionality why the woman at a speed agreed to speak with me what she hoped to get from me from what she knew of me and who I was and why I was there. And I skim this a little bit, just to say I had some, some really wonderful feedback. There are next several difficulties, but someone telling me I'm so glad you're doing this, some of them even reflecting me in their creative methods. So on this image here on the right, I'm represented by the lines of jewels at the bottom. And she's represented her family through the rest of the jewelry. So quite touched by that and we're still in touch. Women saying I'm inspiring to them, can't say I necessarily would agree. But equally, I felt that the other way around. I felt that some of the women were really inspiring to me. Some of the women agreed to talk with me wanting to learn more about what's all involved, but that felt more   39:27 equal than the or more better balanced for one of a better term actually, than the situation I described before. And I was definitely able to gain access to spaces as I said before, because of who I am, not just because I'm a researcher and and I was able to build a rapport and friendships in ways that a man maybe even a white woman might not have been able to And yes, I did make friendships. And that's something I can can discuss later. That's something that people do consider the boundaries of. But these aren't things are not positive, unless I was an ethically responsible, which means continuing to reflect on my positionality. So should I be doing this this research? No, I'm not if I don't have that asylum seeking refugee background, am I the right person to be doing this? And how can I use the privileges that I do have? And the experiences that that, that I have both of of that relative privilege, but also of the discrimination and difficulties that I have faced as a, as a black Miss mixed race, woman Mother, how can I use those to support to amplify and to liberate, not to consider that I'm saving or that I'm speaking for, or that I'm discovering? Considering that presentation, and representation matter? And they really do, but when I'm not representative in an always on again, is that possible? Of the group that I'm researching with? How do I achieve that? And I've done that through some of my more visual and collaborative weights, the ethics of anonymization. And I talked about more about this next week, but particularly with photographs of people, and whether anonymizing is disempowering. And allowing people to real names to be used is liberating. And whether there are times as a researcher whether you need to decide for your participants or is that infantilizing. No straightforward answers. And in case anyone's wondering, I kept anonymized everything anonymized for various reasons. And this is a doctoral event. So in within the academy even, but also elsewhere, that racism isn't only about phenotypes. It's relevant for my positionality. It was relevant for my permissive, epistemological framework, relevant for my participants, they might be white, as it were, visibly, but maybe still racialized, based on their accent, their first language, their immigration status in particular. And this was deeply relevant, as I said, for my approach.   43:04 And that's it for this episode. Don't forget to like, rate and subscribe.

How do you experience the best of humanity? According to Daniel Stein, you experience it from a bicycle seat. Daniel believes other people view cyclists as trustworthy individuals making them more open to interactions.Originally from New York City, having lived in Chicago, and now living in Mexico City, Daniel has a unique perspective because he uses his bicycle as his primary means of transportation. Being a city cyclist, he advocates for more bike lanes to increase bike access anywhere in the world.In today's episode, Daniel recounts how he had minimal bike maintenance experience on his first tour and was helped by so many along the way. Now he is ready to give back and shares some tips and tricks he has learned since that first trip. 5 Fun Facts about Daniel:He believes you meet the best of humanity on a bike.Arguably, the loneliest place he has biked was the northern Nevada desert. Still, it's the part of the trip he remembers most fondly for the discoveries/personal realizations about his life that he made. He shares that it was epiphanic.He strongly advocates for more bike lanes in cities and towns and bikeable highways between them. He would love to organize with other community members for greater bike access everywhere.He hopes to never depend on a car again.Every pedal stroke is pedaling for peace since it doesn't require fossil fuels and the wars we fight for them.You can learn more about Daniel's 2013 tour from Chicago to San Fransisco in his blog Bike Big or Go Home.

Taiwan represents possibly the most intractable issue in international affairs, but also one of the most important. Arguably, no theory or opinion on the biggest questions Australian foreign policy can be complete, or maybe even credible, until it grapples with the Taiwan issue. And so on this episode Allan and Darren use the occasion of US Speaker Nancy Pelosi's controversial visit to the island to sort through their views. Be warned, this is a long and wonkish episode! But more so than perhaps anything else discussed on the podcast, Taiwan requires the time and space to lay out one's views and have them challenged. The episode concludes with a quick update on Australia-China relations, given the Chinese Ambassador's recent speech at the National Press Club. We bid farewell Annabel Howard and thank her so much for all her help, and welcome Atikah Mekki and thank her for audio editing today, and thanks also to Rory Stenning for composing our theme music.

Welcome to the Cryptohunt Jam, where we spend one minute a day to explain crypto. In plain English. My name is Christian Byza, Co-Founder of Cryptohunt.it and I am your host of this daily show. FOMO - short for “Fear of missing out” is one of the most important terms to understand crypto markets. In the context of blockchain investments it refers to people looking at others making money, and fearing that they'll miss out if they don't put money in now. And that's understandable: It's one of humanity's most basic emotions. The neighbor suddenly drives a Lamborghini, so clearly you can make it too, right? Arguably, FOMO has impacted crypto markets more than anything. Absent of solid fundamentals, meaning large real world use cases and mature technologies, crypto has remained mostly an asset for speculators. And speculators benefit most, if everyone gets in on something. So next time your 60 year old aunt is talking about Bitcoin, ask yourself: Is it maybe time to get out because FOMO has already gotten to everyone?

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Vingean Agency, published by Abram Demski on August 24, 2022 on The AI Alignment Forum. I've been involved with several discussions about different notions of agency (and their importance/relationships) lately, especially with the PIBBSS group including myself, Daniel, Josiah, and Ramana; see here. There's one notion of agency (not necessarily "The" notion of agency, but a coherent and significant notion) which vanishes if you examine it too closely. Imagine that Alice is "smarter than Bob in every way" -- that is, Bob believes that Alice knows everything Bob knows, and possibly more. Bob doesn't necessarily agree with Alice's goals, but Bob expects Alice to pursue them effectively. In particular, Bob expects Alice's actions to be at least as effective as the best plan Bob can think of. Because Bob can't predict what Alice will do, the only way Bob can further constrain his expectations is to figure out what's good/bad for Alice's objectives. In some sense this seems like a best-case for Bob modeling Alice as an agent: Bob understands Alice purely by understanding her as a goal-seeking force. I'll call this Vingean agency, since Vinge talked about the difficulty of predicting agents who are smarter than you. and since this usage is consistent with other uses of the term "Vingean" in relation to decision theory. However Vingean agency might seem hard to reconcile with other notions of agency. We typically think of "modeling X as an agent" as involving attribution of beliefs to X, not just goals. Agents have probabilities and utilities. Bob has minimal use for attributing beliefs to Alice, because Bob doesn't think Alice is mistaken about anything -- the best he can do is to use his own beliefs as a proxy, and try to figure out what Alice will do based on that. When I say Vingean agency "disappears when we look at it too closely", I mean that if Bob becomes smarter than Alice (understands more about the world, or has a greater ability to calculate the consequences of his beliefs), Alice's Vingean agency will vanish. We can imagine a spectrum. At one extreme is an Alice who knows everything Bob knows and more, like we've been considering so far. At the other extreme is an Alice whose behavior is so simple that Bob can predict it completely. In between these two extremes are Alices who know some things that Bob doesn't know, while also lacking some information which Bob has. (Arguably, Eliezer's notion of optimization power is one formalization of Vingean agency, while Alex Flint's attraction-basin notion of optimization defines a notion of agency at the opposite extreme of the spectrum, where we know everything about the whole system and can predict its trajectories through time.) I think this spectrum may be important to keep in mind when modeling different notions of agency. Sometimes we analyze agents from a logically omniscient perspective. In representation theorems (such as Savage or Jeffrey-Bolker, or their lesser sibling, VNM) we tend to take on a perspective where we can predict all the decisions of an agent (including hypothetical decisions which the agent will never face in reality). From this omniscient perspective, we then seek to represent the agent's behavior by ascribing it beliefs and real-valued preferences (ie, probabilities and expected utilities). However, this omniscient perspective eliminates Vingean agency from the picture. Thus, we might lose contact with one of the important pieces of the "agent" phenomenon, which can only be understood from a more bounded perspective. On the other hand, if Bob knows Alice wants cheese, then as soon as Alice starts moving in a given direction, Bob might usefully conclude "Alice probably thinks cheese is in that direction". So modeling Alice as having beliefs is certainly not useless for Bob. Still, because Bob ...

A Chat with Jim Alberts. The host for this show is Jay Fidell. The guest is Jim Alberts. The Hawaiian Electric Company provides its services across five of our islands to more than 1.3 million residents as well as millions of guests every year. Arguably no other business plays a more a vital role in Hawaii's economy. And perhaps no other company has been undergoing the breadth and depth of changes that HECO has been experiencing in recent years. Hawaiian Electric Senior Vice President Jim Alberts joins us to discuss some of these timely topics, including decarbonization and the need for a balanced grid system and alignment going forward.

Let's be honest, we're all keenly aware that the world is a dumpster fire. Arguably, we're overly aware of that, which is why when a band like Los Bitchos comes around; there's an intense need for celebration. They're an all-girl band based in London that has one goal: to make you have a great time. That attitude is expressed strikingly so across their debut album, Let The Festivities Begin! (which is out now). To further hit this point home, the band has been on a non-stop run of shows throughout the world, both to headline shows and support acts like Belle and Sebastian and Franz Ferdinand. I caught up with guitarist/multi-instrumentalist Agustina Ruiz after their recent US tour to discuss how the band came to be and her favourite experiences from recording one of the best albums of 2022. Los Bitchos are currently wrapping up a European tour and will be touring the UK starting on September 20th in Bedford. They'll also be supporting Franz Ferdinand again throughout October, with a massive show at London's Ally Pally on October 20th. Be sure to visit their website here for more tour dates.

Meltem Demirors understands what drives much of the crypto market - community. Meltem has spent years in the industry, leading strategy at CoinShares, a digital asset investment firm.

We talked about how the rise of metaverses is driving an urgent need to create new infrastructure, why Bitcoin is a cult and why Meltem is so obsessed with CryptoDickButts

Host Christopher Funderburg is joined by critic & author Martin Kessler for the second of four episodes covering Errol Morris' stunningly brilliant documentary television show, First Person. Filmed on Morris' notorious documentary-interrogation device, The Interrotron, and touching on all his favorite obsessions, First Person brought Morris' ground-breaking documentary style to the small screen. This podcast episode, titled “Likely Heroes,” focuses on the episodes of First Person that looked the rarest of all subjects in Morris' oeuvre: heroes. Possibly. Maybe. Arguably heroes.

We're checking off a big one here. Arguably the most celebrated film produced during Hollywood's golden era, The Wizard of Oz takes L. Frank Baum's 1900 children's novel and throws an unprecedented amount of money, care, talent, and hammy performances at it. The result is a miasma of iconic visuals, memorable songs, and iconic one-liners that still retains its ability to overwhelm the senses decades later. Ryan is joined by Sylvan for a dialogue about this oft-discussed film. It's pretty much impossible to dissect The Wizard of Oz in a way that hasn't been done countless times already, but an attempt is made to keep things lively during the recording. Talking points include prior film versions of the story, debunking of various myths that have sprung up about the movie over the years, how The Wizard of Oz approaches its nostalgic and supernatural subtexts, the movie's status as a horror film, and whether The Wizard of Oz will continue to be relevant for later generations. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/ryan-valentine3/support

One of the hardest things to quantify is how much things like clean air, drinkable water, flood control, and healthy soils are worth. How do you quantify the benefit of these ecosystem services and what is the cost when we lose the land that provides them? Arguably, even harder to quantify are the intangible benefits like mental health and well-being, spiritual connections, and a sense of peace one can derive from the prairie. From pheasant hunting to an improved quality of life, we've done the math to help you make dollars and ‘sense' out of the prairie.

We're talking about what the project market cap looks like using a fun tool called NFT price, floor.com. Well, we're getting into it. We crossed a hundred episodes. We officially have done over a hundred episodes and we're coming up on our, our one, one year anniversary. [00:00:21] I feel like, uh, that's a, that's a big accomplishment. And in NFT years, what. Time seven . Yeah, I feel like we've been in this for, for quite a long time. You know, it is nice looking at some, some NFTs and realizing that they are now long term , uh, gains, you know, not everything is just short term gains and, uh, well, you know, certainly not all gains anyway, but you know, it is nice when the, some of those get into the longer term holds. [00:00:48] Um, but yeah, it feels like a very long time we've been doing this, George. Yeah. It's, uh, it's been interesting. I was looking back at some of our earlier episodes, also episode idea. We should be like, have we learned anything it's a year later, we'll find out when our, when our anniversary anniversary is and, and go for that. [00:01:05] But there's some early projects I'm like just laughing at. And I'm like, oh, I remember when I was into that. But you know, just this time, last year we were looking at metaverse stuff. Right. We were like, oh, this kind of seems like a thing. And it was before all the announcement and pieces like that, but getting. [00:01:20] You know, land, uh, land sales that have gone, like, I'd say like the full circle at this point of beginning, middle, and now, you know, end as we were looking at what was the. And Ft lands. What was it? Ft. Worlds. Those are the ones Ft, worlds. They were well, I mean, they got up over 10 at one point. I think they're bad. [00:01:37] No, they start like this time last year they were at like 0.1 and I was like, well, this is a joke, cuz I feel like they didn't ask permission at all from Microsoft on what they're building on. And they're on an old version of it didn't matter. The tech didn't matter. But then it does because obviously Microsoft issued that whole like, Hey, uh, you guys can't do that. [00:01:56] This is, you know, this is our land and you kind of like quasi built on it, unintended and you know, the, the price is taken a, an ax to it. So, yeah, what's, what's kind of amazing. Here is I'm looking at the, uh, the floor price and it's it's 0.85. Um, but we're, do recall that. I believe I actually, uh, got out at 0.7. [00:02:17] So as much as it's fallen, it's still , it's still above where you were. I thought you sold one above one at one point, but. I don't think I did actually, but you know, um, I don't need to go back and look at it to confirm. It's not like you can find it permanently on the blockchain forever and ever. Yeah. [00:02:34] Right. yeah. If we're playing that game, I've got, I've got more than mine, uh, fair share of that front, but you know, getting into it, you know, of today, what do you see in the news going on here? [00:02:44] Oh, my gosh, look open C introduces new stolen item policy. I think this one's in response to, to our, our last episode, I assume that they heard, they felt the rest. They were put on blast by P a N Ft. And you know, they've, they've certainly, uh, they've introduced a new stolen item policy. So I guess now you actually have to file a police report within seven days of the theft. [00:03:11] Um, and there are more options. For the new buyers to, to get that removed. Um, I tend to see a lot of details on, on what those options are. Um, and then, you know, they basically are still recommending that, uh, people go to another marketplace if, if they are having problems. So, you know, it's, it's something, but, you know, I guess you still get careful don't use a different marketplace. [00:03:35] Yeah. I mean, I, I guess maybe they should put something in there that you can't, you can't resell a, re-list an item after purchasing it for seven days or something, and you actually wanted to make sure the customers were in the clear when they bought it. But, you know, I don't think that's gonna happen. [00:03:51] Yeah. It's something, obviously we're, we're moving markets. We have a lot of power. We try to use it responsibly. This is a good first step though. I also noted that, you know, they're, they're, they're seeing that there's like falsified people submitting these transactions. So like, hypothetically, like let's say, you're like, you know, you're frustrated that you sold something and you're like, oh, uh, I was hacked, uh, it was stolen. [00:04:15] Give it a back. Right? Like you need a police report. You need to have some sort of. Follow on of, uh, of law and repercussion. If you're, if you're faking that, not to say that people, I have no clue what percentage either way is, but they're, they're starting to realize a touch of responsibility in the process, which is important because what's happening now. [00:04:37] Won't scale. They can't. Yeah, I am. I'm looking forward to seeing some of these police reports though. And, and, you know, just imagining what those conversations will be like. Well, the truth is. You know, like insurance fraud is real filing for fake loss and stolen items like that, that comes with severe consequence, you know, think insurance fraud. [00:05:01] So, you know, to that end, you know, there is other elements of liability. Like we have homeowner's insurance, we have renters insurance when something gets stolen and resold, like you are able to go to various bodies. So this is like almost even, you know, the start of, especially if you're pulling in the police, the next step is saying like, oh, I potentially could. [00:05:19] Individual insurance for myself. And they could look at, you know, also the blockchain and also in researching it. Guess what, as smart as we all think we are and like hiding things. If you're not, it's all on the blockchain, you can and will be found if you're dealing to a wallet that you ultimately end up owning and pulling back to yourself. [00:05:37] So they're, um, you know, it's a road to legitimacy and I think there's a lot of second order thoughts that kind of come from what open C is suggesting here. Yeah, well, I'm glad to see they did something good work, good response to, to, uh, our, our podcast reason to open sea. I know you're listening still on point. [00:05:58] All right, our next, next headline here. We've got, uh, Reddit, they're migrating their community points, which have been part of the, the system for forever. They're MI migrating these toum Nova. So this is a layer two on Ethereum, um, will be powering their, their community point system. So this is very much moving over to the blockchain. [00:06:17] You know, we've talked about how things, you know, something like Reddit is very. I kind of already used to this sort of, uh, idea of, of digital ownership. And, uh, here it is. They're, they're moving over. Toum I think this is also interesting because you're seeing web two social move into web three, and they're only doing it on certain, as I understand subreddit, such as the R you know, subreddit cryptocurrency, where the community is kind of ready for this, but you. [00:06:49] I think you're getting into, how do you make micropayments micro compensation for micro contributions of content to a network that makes money, right? You have a whole bunch of essentially unpaid writers when it comes down to it on social media platforms, putting out general content. And this is the start of saying like, whoa, how would we potentially share some of that value? [00:07:13] Push it out rather than consolidate. and, you know, I, I think Reddit is, is perfect. Cuz you can divide this by, you know, the, the subreddits, the communities can decide whether or not they wanna compensate the group members or not. [00:07:29] Yeah. I mean, I, yeah, I mean, we talked about, I think it makes sense. We'll start seeing this power. Other, uh, other point systems are seeing different, uh, layers, par power, other point systems here soon. I think, you know, we've talked about, I think airlines are, are right for this as well. So, uh, I wouldn't be surprised if we see, uh, some big changes or big announcements like this, uh, coming up in the next few months. [00:07:50] And of course, arbitrary is a layer two on top of Ethereum. [00:07:54] Uh, speaking of. Companies getting into, uh, crypto and NFTs. We've got Starbucks. I think you had actually mentioned this, but uh, little more information on this. They are, uh, going into NFTs. You'll be able to, uh, earn these by instead of just getting points when you, um, When you, uh, buy at Starbucks, you able to earn actual NFTs, you know, show how, how big of a, a big shot you are at, uh, at Starbucks, I guess. [00:08:20] Um, you know, it's, it makes sense for them as well. You know, it's, it's a place where people are very used to ordering digitally and, and even earning points and, and, uh, you can definitely see, um, see the use cases here for them. I'm excited. They actually haven't announced which blockchain, but they are definitely gonna be choosing an environmentally sustainable one, cuz it's definitely part of their ethos. [00:08:43] And also the backlash would be amazing. And there's kind of like a, a rumor baked in here that they're potentially waiting for. Ethereum's merge, which is penciled in for September. To potentially make an announcement. But if I were a betting man, and I am, I would bet polygon. So put it on the list of things that three a is, is predicting and will probably come true. [00:09:05] I'd go polygon. What would you say? Yeah, I mean, that would be my guess as well. I was actually somewhat surprised that Reddit wasn't on polygon just because they have INED so many, uh, major deals already in have more, uh, real, real world use case or use experience than, um, many of the other layers at this point. [00:09:24] All right. And, uh, let's see, speaking of, you know, the various Ethereum layers, we've got suggested tentative dates for the merge, the merge is coming. It sounds like we've got, there are two potential dates suggested, looks like it may fall around September 15th. Um, so we will see, um, that was, that will be, let's see the Paris upgrade, uh, the be. [00:09:48] Upgrade will target September 6th. So this is, this is right around the corner. This is it's real, definitely seeing some, um, uh, some price movement in Ethereum recently, and gotta think that the merge is on people's minds when they are buying. [00:10:02] So the, what is the recent test network? The final test network, uh, went through successfully as of the other, yes, go girly. I believe it is G O E R L. I, although it's yeah. I wanted you to. Pronounce that . Yeah. Which I mean, Gole, Gole, I, I don't know, you know, it's, uh, I believe it's a German city. Um, so I, with a, in the O is got, got some of those dots over it. [00:10:28] So, you know, I'm a great successful one, two, it was successful. Absolutely. I mean, it's, uh, you know, since. The summer has been impressive in the development timeline seems like things are going as planned. And, uh, the merge is hasn't been pushed back. It sounds like it's actually been moved up somewhat. Um, so, you know, as we're recording this, we're in mid August and, uh, you know, we're about a month away. [00:10:52] It's exciting. You know, I think it's, it's hard to say what has been priced in or not priced into this. I'm not smart enough to tell you. I will say you have a lot of factors going for you, the biggest and maybe underpriced piece, maybe the environmental component, like this is the number two, uh, crypto currency currency platform. [00:11:14] And it's by going. By effectively going, you know, green-ish right. And sort of greatly reducing going from like 4% emission to 0.4% emission. It becomes this very acceptable, logical choice on, on a lot of levels. Not only just to build on, but to invest in. So. That alone could, could move. I think a lot of, of the market, not to mention the actual underpinning of the code, we've touched on all of this already, but you know, in some senses, if you're in the NFT game, maybe we begin to get to the road of stability. [00:11:49] In price, like we're, we're carrying less, I think in the game of empty about what price Ethereum is though. It definitely matters but the freaking stability, because right now let's just be honest. Like if you think this price is gonna two X in the next 30 days, are you really about to like buy that next? [00:12:07] You know, G maybe not probably waiting. So, um, a cooling effect, maybe we'll talk about volume prices in a bit. Anything else on the. On the radar for you thinking about the, the merge of. [00:12:21] No. I mean, I think it's, I mean, you're spot on just saying that, you know, the price movement E is not good for, for NFTs. Um, you know, we'll get into some of this a bit more. I think, um, we're talking about the project MarketCast but you know, we, we definitely have seen, um, maybe some, not as many transactions as, as maybe, or not as much volume as we, uh, maybe would like in the NFT area, but. [00:12:46] You know, hopefully once the price settles down a bit, we will see that pick back up again. Awesome. Well, we don't have a specific affordable project unless you're gonna surprise me with something. So I thought maybe we'd take a quick look at what is on what is on your shopping list or at the very least, what have you picked up in the last week or so that you haven't talked about? [00:13:07] Yeah, that's a good question. I've, you know, I've been putting some bids out there. Um, you know, I was looking at some of the, uh, Um, the col de decentralized, you know, put some bids haven't had any of those hit yet, but notice some people getting those at you already have one though, right? You're trying to, you're trying to gobble up with, I don't, I don't have one at this point, actually. [00:13:25] No, I sold both of those. So we both, when people were accumulating them in order to, uh, try to get the ascended version. Um, so that's now done. That's where you needed. I think five of them. Um, so they're, they were butt up. It's gotten a little softer there. Uh, haven't had those come through, but I've been putting offers in. [00:13:41] Few different places. How about you? Have you had anything hit? Yeah, a little bit. I landed, my I've been talking about it. AARs, you know, putting my E through my mouth is because I, it hit below my threshold and I am gonna pat myself on the back. Cause I weighted, unlike in the past I showed a touch of discipline. [00:14:00] So I weighted it down from when I was hovering around 0.7, five to 0.5. And I, you know, one of my bids was accepted. Arguably, maybe I could have picked it up for 0.4, five, and now who knows if it drops further. It hit to this price. Um, it's fun to be in that, you know, sort of community. I think it's, uh, as I mentioned before, has a lot of upside in mic Johnson as somebody's gonna continue to hustle, it seems so I'm still digging in and like, you know, as excited as he can be to join another, another project. [00:14:28] Yeah. I mean, it there's, there's a lot of listings out there right now. We've definitely seen, um, I, I mean it, in a lot of the projects that I'm looking at, we, I'm seeing more listings. I think, you know, that does the price movement recently has got some people thinking maybe I'd like to, uh, to, to cash in some NFPS for E um, you know, I, I, I'm not terribly concerned about, um, Some of the E or NFT prices coming down. [00:14:52] Um, in my opinion, you know, these are things that sort of stable, you know, they, they do tend to benefit from stability. So, um, you know, looking at, you know, definitely looking at making offers different places and seeing if there are people willing to let things go relatively cheaply. Um, but yeah, I don't know if it's actually. [00:15:11] The only, uh, the only I can think that I picked up recently was, um, was the ledger market pass, but I've actually sold that since. Um, so that was the ledger. Um, as in the hardware wallet, they have a marketplace coming out. The, the, the ledger pass itself will give you access to some of the new drops. It wasn't particularly, um, Uh, it wasn't overly interesting to me to keep, uh, going with some other new projects, um, that, you know, it was one that I, uh, that I held for for a week or so there, um, you know, not a long term hold though. [00:15:48] I picked up I Adam pass. So I, I submitted to this. This is, um, A creator community where they're talking about collectively creating. And this is part of Adam verse.com. I'll include that in the show notes and it it's super cool. Actually, it's all about sort of a bunch of creators that have different skills, abilities from like writing animation marketing. [00:16:15] And they're all sort of like, I mean, we're collaborating on like what will be created and the ideas that, you know, uh, there will be a, a creative output. And then ideally the, any proceeds that happen would, uh, potentially get divided among it. But it's, it's, it's super interesting because it's, um, you know, trying to, you know, connect, uh, writers and creators in the same, uh, in the same game. [00:16:38] So. Um, it's not really something that's traded. There's like, there's no volume cuz they don't really allow trading to happen. So it's really just about the, the, the membership, uh, component. And it's one of the more interesting gals. I I'd say I'm a part of cool that's one that I had not heard of yet. [00:16:55] George. Oh, look at me. Look at me, Sean. Yes. There's no trading volume. So you know, you're do, you're doing it ESP. If you're a creator. Or interested in that game, like I would say that's, um, it's, it's a fun one to check out. Um, I should note that I I've noticed little nouns have come way down in price. I don't know how those will, uh, you know, how those will fare, but I do see that there are still, you'll still see some good nouns, um, get picked up on secondary for, for over 0.3, even over 0.4 at times. [00:17:27] Um, so I actually think that's a, not a bad one to, to keep an eye on, um, at least trying to maybe. Maybe snipe a, an auction. If you could see a particularly good one, there's still, uh, some PO some opportunity there to, to resell as well. Now, you know, I'm a, I'm all in on little nouns. I was able to snag a, a top 100. [00:17:46] So just to put a finer point on it, like I will constantly be looking at, uh, definitely not the floor, because if you wanna get in there and bid it's like, go for it and try to like snag one. That looks cooler. It looks interesting. Um, because there's only four out 4,600 out there and there's 1700 owners. [00:18:05] Um, and there's, you know, in terms of volume in a given day, uh, around call it 2020 items changing hands. But what you can do is actually go with, um, uh, oldest. So you do instead of price, like low to high by default, you do just like oldest and then you hit buy now. And this is kind of how I filter through. [00:18:26] And then like, I'll do a. Look and be like, oh, interesting. Is there anything that is in the top 100 for, for sale even, and, and right now there's only like three of them available there. So every now and then someone gets desperate and just posts something. Even, I'd say maybe the top 1000 might have some cache, but uh, I'll I'll say Andrews, talk me outta that. [00:18:52] Yeah. I mean it you're right though. I mean, if you're looking at the top, let's see top thousand, it looks like you're still gonna be at a minimum of. Wait, well 0.4, 2, 5, 5. I see a 0.4, five, five. Yeah. And there's number 9 56. That 0.4, 2 6, 9. Um, actually that one looks like it just sold and was re-listed um, interestingly enough, it was, uh, it was sold about 45 minutes ago for just 0.19 and then someone immediately re-listed. [00:19:23] So, you know, someone does someone's following your logic. There should be more value to you in the top thousand. You're definitely a good place holding that, that top 100 though. I, I should have some you then I hope that, uh, you know, some of our listeners did . I was, I think I did a decent job shouting that out, but I will say in everyone's defense, I was real depressed because that same day, like Ethereum had taken a 50% ax. [00:19:45] And I think in like, Like three hours or something. It was like, it was so dark when I was there being like, uh, fine, I'll do this, but that, yeah, that's, that's one to take a look at. And again, I like that because of the way that Dow is structured, right? Follow the money, the money, every 10th, one of these things is going into its own backyard and there is definitely money there. [00:20:08] And, you know, if you, if you think nouns are doing well, then little nouns are like a slice of that. So I dunno, I like it. It's on my, my list. I'll put that filter by the way in, um, in show notes. [00:20:20] I mean, the other things in my wallet is like, I bred another horse because I'm real excited about the upcoming, uh, upcoming changes Zed has, uh, going on in there. Um, like I need another, I think I just need a hundred horses. I just, I need to hit that. That milestone. Absolutely. I mean, I it's it's I've I've come rather disappointed. [00:20:37] You don't have that many yet. You gotta get to a hundred. I mean, Andrew, there's a filter. There's a constant filter to say like, do you have over under a hundred horses? And I'm like, you, like, I should . I mean, yeah, you, you should have, well over a hundred at this point. Let's uh, let's encourage George second wallet. [00:20:54] Actually, I might, I have to go check my second wallet. Oh God. I gotta go. Oh boy. [00:20:58] All right. I feel like, um, is there anything else on the, uh, the affordable shopping list right now? No, I think that's, I think that covers it, you know, making bids and, and seeing what hits, but, you know, be, be patient. You can, you can get some people, uh, maybe a little desperate to, uh, to, to get E right now. [00:21:17] Agreed. Um, so I definitely picked up the, uh, the play, the pray station, um, after our pod, uh, I picked. That one. Oh, all right. The, from Joshua Davis. Yes. The art blocks one. I like that. Yeah. I think if you're collecting art blocks, you know, there's, there's definitely a decent backstop on that. And that floor is at point 11 right now. [00:21:39] All right. Onto the theme. So we are talking basically about market cap, so NFT price.com. And, you know, they're, you know, everyone's got their, their sort of hook on it, but it is a data aggregator price, price, floor tracker, and then it just does the fun thing of saying, well, what if we multiply, um, the total amount of the value of price floor versus the collection size. [00:22:06] And that's how you end up with like a market cap of 1.4 billion for board ape, right? Or, uh, crypto punk set 1.3, uh, 1.3 billion. So it is this idea of saying. There is an inherent value and it's at the floor. If everything's sold for the floor, this is what it would be. Um, I think it's also interested. They show listed slash supply ratio and you just sort of have like a, a scarcity element there, uh, as well. [00:22:32] Um, which, which is curious, I dunno, what do you see in when you look at a, a market cap, anything of use. Um, you know, I think one, one of the good things with market cap is that it gives you a way to compare floor prices or more than just floor prices, but compare collections beyond floor prices and account for the fact that many of these projects have different numbers of pieces. [00:22:54] You know, we do see 10,000 often, but obviously we see, you know, 5,000, you see 20,000 see very different numbers. And there, you know, that's a lot more holders, a lot more people that need to hold onto those, or, you know, you continue buying. Um, and you know that we're, we get these market caps and it's, you know, I, I think one thing to keep in mind is that's a pretty. [00:23:17] And it's, it's always optimistic because it's assuming there is liquidity at that floor price. And, you know, we, I, we know that once somebody starts selling that floor price is going to move. And if there's a lot of sellers, we, we generally know which direction that's going to go and that's gonna be down. [00:23:36] Um, so I think it is, it's good to keep in mind that these. These floor cap or sorry, these, uh, um, these market caps. There's, there's not a lot of liquidity generally speaking behind these projects. Exactly. So the liquidity question is like, could all of that technically be sold. So if you were, you know, nine, 9000th person selling, like no one would be on the other side of that buying. [00:24:02] So I think it is a bit of. I don't know, mid bit of misleading data to assume that like, oh, we could immediately get all that money for our place. You need that many buyers on the other side. Uh, for, for doing that. Um, I also like to just sort of like the quick number, so example, like I know you're a rug radio holder for, for instance, um, we've talked about it, but the rug, radio Genesis NFT, you know, there, there's only 1.2%, um, sellers on that. [00:24:30] So like most of the folks are actually staking that. Right. And so you're like, oh, interesting. Um, it's kind of just like a different look at what, um, A thin floor might be, um, the floor on that by the way is like, I think it's like 0.2. It's in the background of my mind of like, eh, maybe I'll put that on my list. [00:24:47] Yeah, I, I do like looking at the number or the percent listed, I guess that's even even more indicat than, than the number of listings. Um, you know, one thing that I think we need to keep in mind is this is generally open sea. And as, as far as listings go, and, you know, as we see more and more markets or marketplaces proliferate, and, you know, we see, you know, X two Y, two, and genie and, and looks rare and. [00:25:12] I'll take little bits. We're not always getting a complete picture of how many are really for sale. When we look at these, I think it's a great metric overall. Keep in mind, some projects in particular may be more active on other marketplaces. So, you know, there's look around a bit when, when doing these, when you're doing your, uh, research, you know, I've definitely started noticing that you need to really check more marketplaces now because, uh, you know, open sea doesn't have as much of a stronghold. [00:25:41] And I think that's probably going to continue. I think, you know, some of these aggregators, these data, um, aggregators they're. Right now they're not taking listings from all of the, the various marketplaces. Um, for the most part listings are off chain. So that would be using, um, you actually need to use APIs generally speaking, to get the listings, um, from the other marketplaces. [00:26:05] So, you know, I think we'll start seeing improvements there, but, um, Definitely isn't a perfect measure. Um, I think it is, this is something that's actually included on the, uh, w gmi.io tool as well. You can see how many, um, new listings there are in a day and how many, or, you know, whether it's gone up or down. [00:26:24] I do like looking at that gives me some idea of, you know, if it's, if people are, are. You know, getting more tempted to sell because the price has gone up or, um, you know, people are actually holding because, you know, they, they wanna hold or hold it for the long term. And aren't necessarily all that concerned with a, you know, 0.1 E increase. [00:26:43] Um, it that's that I find actually more, I, I pay more attention to that than, than market kept generally speaking. Um, I don't know. How about you, George? Do you, do you look into those at. Um, yeah, I'm much more of a Hawk on, on the sort of volume. I wanna just wanna know how, how quickly or how FOMO a, I should be on my, my bids, uh, on whether a project is moving or not. [00:27:07] And frankly, I'm like, I, I'm really only looking for things that are asleep. I want, I, I want something that, uh, I I think has value and is going to, to wake up later. Um, and if it's already moving, it's a signal to me is like, I missed it. I'm like, I'm fine with that. I'm good with it. Uh, the other side of it is I'm a little, you know, not too asleep. [00:27:28] I think I was, you know, looking back, uh, a year ago, this time. Was I think more enamored with just sort of like old projects for the sake of old, like, oh my gosh. Like how old this thing is. And like it's been a year and I don't think that really has played into this market valuation at all. You know, my, my bets on like crypto bots, my bot, like my bets on chain bases simply because they were just like OG and original and, you know, have, have been in the game for a while. [00:27:55] Like it. Uh, it doesn't seem to play in. And I think there are, it's more about utility, um, ongoing interest of the project because, you know, I'm, I'm looking at something like chain faces and I'm like, there's a low number listed, but I know that's because it's just low attention completely. I almost like it has been forgotten. [00:28:13] Yeah. You know, I, I, I think that may be, you know, trying to look at the number that are listed in a day compared to the number of sales, um, would probably be a, you know, really helpful, uh, metric to have, you know, see how fast the, the inventory is turning over essentially. Um, Because I've definitely seen some and there are times where I just go list something and it's maybe the only one listed. [00:28:35] And, you know, I know that it's not exactly going to move anytime soon, despite being the only one listed, um, And that is, yeah, there's a lack of attention if people aren't seeing anything happen, um, you know, open sea has made the default, uh, for new listings to just be 30 days. So, you know, there, if you're not in there and either not changing it doing longer listings, there are definitely times where there's just no action. [00:28:59] Um, you know, and that's one where we, if you looked at how many sales per day and how many listings per day you'd have a much better, you'd have a much more accurate view of what's really happening with the collection rather than having to go look at the, the activity manual. Yeah. All right. Well, I think in a, in upcoming one, I wanna dive into some transaction actual like macro data and, and look at that. [00:29:21] Look at some of your charts, any other, any other thoughts we had on this theme? [00:29:25] No. I mean, I, you know, I think this is, it's a good one to keep in mind, especially for comparing different collections and also getting an idea, is this, you know, is this absurd? Is there, you know, is there really that much liquidity there? You know, if you see an absolutely massive number, you know, in the, uh, the market cap, I think that might be a good sign that it, uh, it's a little bubbly. [00:29:44] It might be time to, to list because certainly other people will be listing as well. Yeah, you get into this sort of like we were to tie the real world price to earnings ratio and it'd be way outta whack. You'd be like, really? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you know, it's, we're still developing some of these metrics I think. [00:30:02] And you know, I think there's even just thinking about how, how fast the, the inventory does turn over is, is important when you're, when you're thinking about getting into these collections. Yeah, no, it's it, it could be actually a, a warning signal of saying like, well, wait a minute, this is just it's. So out of whack and sometimes to see the big number can help you realize like, wait a minute, this is, you know, you're telling me this is got the valuation of like a fortune fortune 100 company. [00:30:27] And you're like, it doesn't like this, this asset simply doesn't have that. Yeah. I mean, it's, you know, it's hard to say that many of these , that aren't seeing a whole lot of, uh, revenue, um, beyond, you know, a small percentage of, of what's traded each day. Um, it's hard to imagine that that a lot of these can sustain some of these just massive market market caps. [00:30:50] I don't know, crypto Dick butts might make it. You know, I think that deserves it's it's market cap. Well, I'm give you crypto. Oh, here's here. all right, Andrew, you gotta guess as we sign off, what do you think in, in dollars the, uh, the market cap for crypto Dick butts is. Uh, let's see. I think it's well, there's about 7,000. [00:31:12] I believe there's 69 69. And it's three E or so. So we've got 21,000 E nine. So what do we have? 400 and something, 440 million or something? Well, you're off, you're off by a zero. It's like 30. Am I off by a zero? Oh, five zero. Okay. I added one. All right. Sorry. I mean, you could, if I had said doodles, you were you were, well, I mean, I knew was gonna be something absurd, but you know, I don't know the Dick, but what has been interesting and kind of expected that with a pump a while ago? [00:31:46] It has now it's, uh, man, that's that's that's the CCO one, right? CCO summer, apparently. Yeah. Oh, that's a good topic for us. What happens when you know, you get CC'd like all the moon birds people did. Um, we had that in the news article, not too long ago. That was unfortunate for them. Well, legally, man, what you own is not yours anymore. [00:32:07] Sorry. Yeah, that's an interesting one, especially because that was advertised as, uh, being part of the project that you own the IP so interesting that you never owned the IP because if you did, they wouldn't have been able to change it like that. Learn as you go. All right. Good talk. See you out there. All right, George.
