Climate change is hurting everyone in Ghana, but it's hitting young people particularly hard, says Abudi Razak, volunteer and national youth president for the Ghana Red Cross. Droughts in the north and floods down south mean that crop yields and incomes are low, while the cost of living is skyrocketing. Young people see their futures evaporating. Razak's response is to motivate young people take matters into their own hands. One example is something he calls “climate-preneurship”; projects that earn income while solving climate-related challenges. Razak was recently honored by the IFRC with its highest humanitarian award, named after its founder Henry Davison.

Tambahan pula, umurnya sudah 75 tahun, namun badannya masih kuat seperti orang yang berumur 20 tahun. Semuanya berubah apabila dia terjatuh di tempat kerjanya, dan penduduk kampung mula melihat perubahan yang agak menakutkan pada diri Pak Salam.

Razak Khan's Minority Pasts: Locality, Emotions, and Belonging in Princely Rampur (Oxford UP, 2022) explores the diversity of the histories and identities of Muslims in Rampur-the last Muslim-ruled princely state in colonial United Provinces and a city that is pejoratively labelled as the center of "Muslim vote bank" politics in contemporary Uttar Pradesh. The book highlights the importance of locality and emotions in shaping Muslim identities, politics, and belonging in Rampur. The book shows that we need to move beyond such homogeneous categories of nation and region, in order to comprehend local dynamics that allow a better and closer understanding of the historical re-negotiations of politics and identities by Muslims in South Asia. This is the first comprehensive English-language monograph on the local history and politics of Rampur princely state, based on Persian, Pashto, Urdu, Hindi, and English archives and oral histories of Rampuris. The book provides insights into the various facets of the political, economic, religious, literary, socio-cultural, and affective history of Rampur and Rampuris in India and Pakistan. Anindita Ghosh is a doctoral candidate in history at the University of Illinois Chicago. Her dissertation is about the histories of absorption of the eastern native states of South Asia into the nations and their socio- political afterlives in the post- colonial nations. Arighna Gupta is a doctoral candidate in history at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. His dissertation attempts to trace early-colonial genealogies of popular sovereignty located at the interstices of monarchical, religious, and colonial sovereignties in India and present-day Bangladesh.

We interview Munirah Razak, who is a Holistic Yoga Teacher, Life Coach, Ceremonial Cacao Guide and a Sound Healer. Her healing journey began when she found herself disconnected from her body and having negative self-thoughts after living with autoimmune illnesses, chronic pain and trauma for a long time. She believes that healing is a life-long exploration & continues to deepen her personal practice daily.Yoga is more than a few poses and breathing, even though we have been taught that movement and exercise is the cornerstone to this spiritual practice. In reality, there are many other forms of yoga. Yoga is a way of life and meant to be something you take with you throughout your day instead of a thought or intention you leave on the mat.In this episode, Alyssa & Tara chat with Munirah about how to bring the presence from the mat to your daily interactions. This dive into mindfulness will help you look at why you may feel stressed or tired instead of just not being those things by taking time to reconnect with your body in different moments of the day. If you feel like you approach yoga or exercise as something that you check off your list for the day instead of a way to bring more peace and calm into your life, then this episode is for you.You can find Munirah through her links below:Her website: https://luminousyogalife.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/luminousyogalifeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/luminousyogalife/This Week's Challenge: Find something that will help you tap back into your body or bring you more mindfulness throughout your day by carrying it with you.We would love to create magick with you in our Weaving Magick Community! https://www.patreon.com/weavingmagickpodcastConnect with us on our Weaving Magick socials:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weavingmagickpodcastTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@weavingmagickpodcastTwitter: https://twitter.com/taraandalyssaYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOhzGt9TvZr8SU_h8YHTSEQTo get to know Tara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamtarawebb/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@iamtarawebbTo get to know Alyssa:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thealyssalilly/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thealyssalilly Support the show

Join Lori and her guest, Cecilia Razak, as they talk about how a company or product can provide value to customers and have a positive social impact. Cecilia co-founded Slides with Friends, an interactive presentation builder designed for human group connection. She shares her desire to create tangible value for others and how that purpose relates to her business and daily life. Stay tuned! Here are the things to expect in this episode: How a business pivot resulted in the creation of Slides with Friends The social impact aspect of corporate philanthropy Building a tool that creates value for its users And much more! About Slides with Friends: We were elbow-deep in growing a startup when the 2020 pandemic hit. We went from a big team in multiple cities and growing, to doing one tenth of our revenue. We dropped our growth plans and moved everything we could remote. All hands meetings were the hardest. Personally, we were lucky to be able to quarantine in our home. Feeling close with friends and family was the hardest. We started building Slides as a side project that was part wishful thinking, part wish fulfillment. We wanted to make being far from all of our people easier. We wanted to make meetings smoother and more fun. We wanted to have video calls with our friends without talking over each other or getting zoom fatigue. We wanted my mom's birthday to still be special. And we wanted to help everyone going through this to have those things, as well. So this is a presentation tool that's got a bigger goal; keeping people connected while apart. We hope it can help you do that too. Connect with Cecilia! Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ceciliarazak/ Slides with Friends: www.slideswith.com Connect with Lori Kranczer!

Libby Znaimer is joined by Lauren O'Neil, Senior News Editor of BlogTO, Karen Stintz, CEO, Variety Village, David Crombie, Former Mayor of Toronto. Today: we start things off by placing a magnifying glass on the ongoing shenanigans in Brampton. The city's former integrity commissioner, Muneeza Sheikh, is suing Brampton and the city councillors who voted to fire her for $20M arguing that her firing was part of a conspiracy by some councillors who were not happy over previous or ongoing ethics investigations into them. It's a lawsuit that happens to have the support of the current Mayor Patrick Brown. Meanwhile, in a presser earlier this week, Brown alleged that municipal funds were used as "hush payments" in a city councillor's sexual harassment lawsuit. Here in Toronto, an integrity complaint was filed against Mayor John Tory arguing that his ties to Rogers is a conflict of interest. Finally, Toronto was just ranked the hardest city to navigate. What's up with that? THE CONSERVATIVE LEADERSHIP DEBATE: A RECAP Libby Znaimer is joined byMichael Diamond, Principal of Upstream Strategy Group and Janet Ecker, Former Ontario PC MPP. Yesterday, the third and final debate of the Conservative leadership race took place. All were in attendance except for the perceived front-runner Pierre Poilievre and Leslyn Lewis. What kind of an impact will their absence have on the overall race or even their own campaigns? Both Leslyn and Pierre were fined $50,000 for being no-shows. ---- UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO REQUIRING STUDENTS IN RESIDENCE TO HAVE THREE SHOTS Libby Znaimer is
Libby Znaimer is joined by David Peterson, former Ontario Liberal Premier, Howard Hampton, former leader of the Ontario NDP and Hugh Segal who served as chief of staff to Ontario's 18th Premier, the late Bill Davis. Today: we start the discussion off with a recap of the new Ford government cabinet that saw, among other changes, Sylvia Jones take over as deputy premier and minister of health. Will Sylvia be able to fill the big shoes that her predecessor Christine Elliott left? And, we continue the discussion about government incompetence. There seems to be a lot of it these days. Some examples that come to mind include Global Affairs sending a senior rep to the Russian Embassy to celebrate Russia Day and federal transportation minister Omar Alghabra blaming travelers for problems at international airports like Pearson. Our panel weighs in on all of that and more. ---- HOW CANADA PERFORMED ON ITS PANDEMIC RESPONSE + FOURTH COVID-19 BOOSTERS
Libby Znaimer is joined by David Cravit, Vice President of Zoomer Media and Chief Membership Officer at CARP, Peter Muggeridge, Senior Editor of Zoomer Magazine and Bill VanGorder, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Policy Officer of CARP. Today: Have you ever heard of MCRs? Also, known as medical condition reports, they are files that healthcare professionals will fill out to the ministry if a patient is in a certain medical condition that would require a driver's licence suspension. But this system is susceptible to abuse and even misjudgment by doctors. Our Zoomer Squad discusses a Toronto Star investigation about it and listeners call in to share their personal stories of having their licenses removed through MCRs. ---- THE END OF MASK MANDATES AND THE STATE OF COVID-19 IN ONTARIO Libby Znaimer is joined by Dr. Fahad Razak, The Scientific Director of the COVID-19 Science Advisory Table. The remaining mask mandates in the province of Ontario ended on June 11th. That means, you can board a TTC vehicle without a face covering and it is up to hospitals, for example, to maintain their own mask-wearing mandates moving forward. But, is it too early to make such a major policy shift? And, does it really follow the science? Ontario's COVID-19 wastewater signal is currently on the rise again, according to the province's science advisory table, which suggests an increase in case numbers. And, it comes at a time when restrictions have eased. Dr. Razak weighs in on the latest. ---- PATRICK BROWN ON THE CONSERVATIVE LEADERSHIP RACE Libby Znaimer is joined by Patrick Brown, Candidate for the leadership of the Conservative Party of Canada. Patrick weighs in on the Conservative leadership race so far and the record number of memberships. He also weighs in on the state of the federal Conservative Party. Brown, who has served as Mayor of Brampton since 2018, has until mid-August to sign up as a mayoral candidate for Brampton, which happens to fall a few weeks before the next federal Conservative leader is voted in.

I don't understand. I, so one of our, our colleagues, Adam Partridge brought in a big bag of Halloween candy that was left over from his house. I was enamored by the bag and just go in through it. Um, but yeah, uh, Brohan had to physically dragged me away from the candy, but now I am here.So without further ado, let's go ahead and get this show. Rolling. Bren says you could get hurt. You could hear me before. Great.CEO, Jason. Razak here with us. The man, the myth, the legend Skeeter shifts on the power hour with us live today. Interesting different innovative company. You are alive.we need a new intro. AB can we get a new intro? Yep. W w we'll get working on that. Spencer's we've got a jam packed show today. Uh, do you want to give us a rundown of our agenda for the day? Oh yes, I can do that because I wrote stuff down. Uh, we've got our first gas coming up in seven minutes at 12, 15 Eastern time.Cigar global, the CEO of Centrix. Did I get that right? Yep. Okay. I just want to help you get out of the right seminars. Tickers seeds DX will be on at 1215, uh, Lena Alena, chin, head of IRR at newborn town at 1230. Uh, the CEO of quipped, Greg Crawford at 1245, Jesse Kaler from elite trading at one. And then Nick Shaheen from the author of the big thing, the options newsletter will be on the show at one 30.We got a lot to talk about today. Let's start with, you know, I don't know. Where do you want to start? AB well, places I want to start, um, let's start with a nice little crypto update. Spencer's so as many of you may know. Bitcoin hit a brand new, all time high today. This was spurred by the CPI data that came out this morning.So CPI came in hotter than expected showing, um, inflation and investors went and rushed to buy Bitcoin as an inflation hedge. So we had Bitcoin, uh, almost reach up to 69,000 up about 3.2, 6%. A theorem is up 2.14% nearing 5,000. So I'm looking for that as a big psychological level. Spencer, when a theory, um, hits 5,000, um, Shiba, Inu, and doge coin to dog related cryptocurrencies are down today in this sea of green.So maybe that's showing that investors are leaving Sheba and dos to go buy Ethereum and Bitcoin. I don't know. Um, but overall good day for crypto so far, we will continue to watch crypto and see how it's performing today. Um, but since there's other stuff in the news, I want to talk about before we move on, though, I just want to mention, you can get some free Bitcoin ha.Look at the screen, it says it right there. Go to Voyager, go to the app on your mobile device of your choice, whether to Android or iPhone or some other third OSTP, I'm not aware of down on the Voyager app in the app store, fund your account with a hundred bucks, make your first trade, and they'll give you $50 in BTC.You should do it before Bitcoin goes to a million. I'm just saying that because then you'll be getting more bang for your buck, but that's just me. Okay. I know you have things on your mind today, Aaron. Yes, I do have things on my mind before we get to that though. I want to introduce a new little game noodle segment.We have a new segment. Yeah. If you're like me and you grew up watching Pokemon as a kid, you know that the show used to do a thing called guests, that Pokemon, where they would give you the outline of a Pokemon. And you had to guess which one it was his name. Fine. You're right. It was named that Pokemon.So we're going to do that with charts, name, that chart. This is the first one we're going to do. I'm going to go ahead and pull it up on screen. Uh, as you can see, this is a recent, uh, not, I, I have, again, I, this is an easy one. Yeah. We're going to start. We're going to, uh, well, it could be one of, one of several actually.Um, and I don't know the answer can, so can, I guess AB you can guess this is a, this is an easy one. We're just going to start off easy and get more difficult as we do more iterations of this game. Oh, wait. I was not looking at the, the, the x-axis this, so this was from my high was October of last year. Oh yeah.Chris, who's that Pokemon? That's the correct one. No, no, I'll wait. No, no. Wait, how, how far back does this chart out? Exactly. It goes further back then. Uh, wait, are we looking at that? That's October 20th of this year, correct? Uh, Cobra flash. Okay. I don't know why I thought that. Um, okay. Yes, the answer is on the shadow.I would guess Brenda. Got it. Is what I'm thinking. Um, my guess is the same as his DW AAC, are we right? Yes. You are D whack right up $49 in the past month. Um, of course this was a spec, so it was trading around $10 for a very long time. And then once the merger was announced, the stock ran all the way up to about $170 before coming back down, currently trading right at $60.Um, so congrats to Brenda who was the first correct? Guests are in the chat with D whack. Um, you know, we, we are going to do this more often, so we'll introduce, we have to give away prizes to bring saw was in the chat. We got to give away some schwag. I think Brent is right. Email us shows that bends and good.com.I will get you hooked up with some free swag. Um, you know, maybe you pick out a hat or a t-shirt, but we will do this more. I will, uh, say the charts will get more difficult. So we started you off easy, but Brenda, don't, don't get used to getting such easy charts. Uh, yeah, that was a surprisingly easy one.And maybe next time I'll do it and there'll be some totally obscure stop. Yeah, that barely trades. Okay. Wait, we got two minutes before first guests are running behind here. I know you have a rant like in your city. That, uh, even you've been talking to me about this stock today. Do you want to go get that out there now?Or do you want, wait, yeah. Wait, we've only got a couple minutes, so let me just share my Benzing a pro I'll get it pulled up. Um, you're right, Spencer. This has been on my mind. So I've been watching live nation's stock, um, all week. And so live nation, of course, uh, the company that put on the, the Travis Scott concert that tragically ended, uh, with eight deaths.And I've just been surprised that we haven't seen this stock, um, trade. I know necessarily the markets don't really care about that, but there've been about 30 lawsuits opened up against live nation and the company has a history of. Uh, safety problems in past concerts. Not only that, but Travis, Scott has a history of having safety problems in past concerts.So for live nation, as a company to know we've had safety issues and Travis Scott who's at safety issues to not, um, do a better job of making sure, you know, all the, all the concert attendees were safe, taken care of. I mean, to me, that's just a big oversight, so we'll see. And in due time, what the outcome is of these lawsuits filed against live nation.Uh, but to me, I'm surprised we didn't see this stock trading down 10%. I mean, I know the company reported earnings, uh, that, that were pretty good for the company. You know, what's interesting is the wa uh, the street doesn't a lot of times it doesn't really care about a little care about the lawsuits. If they end up being, uh, if they ended up implicating, I only care about like certain kinds of lawsuits, right?Like they care about. Like when the DOJ sues you, they care about that. They care about like antitrust lawsuits. They don't, I I'm not saying it's right or wrong. It's just seems like it's the way it is. Um, you know, I can think of like every automaker has had major lawsuits, uh, Toyota with the airbags. I don't really think the street cared about that.I, I think the street doesn't really care about product recalls. They don't really care about like wall suit risk, you know what, here's another one. Why don't you pull up the chart of match, match.com MTC gauge because they have a lawsuit going on, uh, right now, just when to trial or, or, or they're in jury selection, the proceedings have started, um, this is related to the founder.Resewing assuming IAC because he's saying that, um, he, uh, misled them as far as the value of the company when he was buying them. But, um, Yeah, you don't, you don't see stocks react really to tool a lot of times to lawsuits. I'm not really sure why that is. I don't know. Well, yeah, there's some crazy theories being thrown out there about the concert, Spencer.And I'm going to ask you, take it or leave it. The first one, um, being thrown out there is Travis. Scott is like a satanic devil worshiper. What are we talking about right now? That's look it up. That's the theory being thrown out there. I'm asking you to take it or leave it. Uh, I don't need, well, I don't even know who he is, so I like, I leave it.I don't know here. The article from Newsweek, Travis, Scott, satanic festival blood sacrifice, conspiracy theory. Okay. So you're leaving that. You're not buying it. Yeah. I don't even know what that means. So no, uh, it would sell that headline, whatever that means. Okay. There we go. I don't know. I don't even know.All I know is the concert ended in tragedy. It's not the first time. And nor would it be the last time that it happens. I fear cause these kinds of things, uh, um, they happen occasionally for whatever reason. So, um, Hey, I think we're running late for our first guest. That was quite a segue, but we're going to, uh, do that say w w we're going to commit to the segway here.Uh, cause we have, uh, the CEO of a chem tracks backstage right now. It's ticker a C E T X cigar. Goalball let's get him on the show AB well, let's do it. Shugar how are you doing today? I'm good. How are you? Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you as well. Uh, you guys can tell what is on our mind right now by the kinds of companies that we're bringing on with bill, uh, cigar, you are in the VR AR space.We are thinking about that. We are interested in that. Um, so it is not enough for me to merely drop that nugget. Please tell us exactly what it is that you do. Sure. So soundtracks is a diversified technology company. We have several different operating brands, uh, from the IOT sprays to security technology, but also AR and VR, which is a big focus for us going forward.So, uh, we operate a number of different brands. We've been building in VR for the last, uh, three or four years already. So we're quite familiar with this space and we're very excited for sort of the next phase of the computing, uh, paradigm as we get into the metaverse, obviously with the recent news with Facebook.You know, transitioning to the metaverse, um, there's a lot of discussion around this and we think the time is perfect for, uh, for VR now to take off what exactly are you building? Because the metaverse can mean any number of things. It can be anything to do with the metaverse. Right. So, so w so what are, yeah, so, um, so we look at the, metaverse says.A number of different opportunities. It's going to evolve, uh, dramatically over the next 20, 30 years as, as, as it takes shape. Uh, but right now we're very much in the nascent stage of this. And so, you know, our group, our focus is to really, uh, drive growth for our business, uh, in areas where we see early adoption and areas where we see opportunities for, uh, growing our business.So right now, um, we've acquired, um, a training studio that is called virtual driver interactive, where we build simulation technology for, um, right now, just for drivers. But we plan to evolve that as VR is used for training applications, um, we also launched our first gaming studio. So we're building our first, uh, VR gaming experience, um, as part of the metaverse, uh, that'll be launched early next year.Um, and the, the name of that studio is called Bravo strong and reliance. Our first Saifai first person shooter, uh, in, in, in Q1. Uh, so that's really something that we're looking forward to as our first kind of foray of our own, uh, technology and platform in, in the, in the space. We also do make investments in, in VR as well.And so, you know, we kind of have an, all of the above approach of building our own technology, as well as finding and seeding companies that we see big potential in. It seems like everyone is, is, is thinking of training of professional training as like the primary aside from gaming. Uh, the primary use case of the metaverse, you're not, you're like the third, fourth, fourth person to come on our show and mentioned training specifically.So, yeah. And so, uh, I think that's an early, it's sort of, uh, some of the easier, uh, low adoption kind of, uh, uh, opportunities right in front of us. So, um, you know, for instance, I mean, you know, taking large equipment to trade shows, training your customers on, um, complex equipment, it can be challenged. Did you things like that, uh, inexpensive, right.So VR solves that problem. Uh, so, uh, you know, whether it's training sales teams or training your customers, um, that's clearly an opportunity where, um, you know, there's a number of opportunities and, you know, we've even seen this with, uh, you know, sort of in-person virtual training. You can train police forces, chain, you know, fire, firemen, you know, OSHA training.I mean, so there's a number of opportunities across the board when it comes to, to training, uh, you know, with VR, is there another use case outside of the training and obviously the gaming that's really exciting to you? Yeah. So we're heavily looking at, um, a couple of things. Uh, one is entertainment. So, um, I mean you've seen some of the things that Fortnite has done, uh, with, with, uh, their own experience with Ariana Grande day and, uh, uh, and some of the other artists that they've put.So we see a big opportunity as, as that evolves. And we're looking at forming some partnerships or joint ventures to. Uh, some kind of experience in terms of entertainment. Um, and then, uh, additionally, I mean, I think everybody's trying to figure out how to monetize. So you have lots of opt developers that are, um, you know, putting out products in there, but they don't have any easy way to monetize those applications.So we see that as a big opportunity in terms of, uh, you know, ad monetization strategies, you know, whether it's advertising or similar sort of paradigm. So, um, I think there's a number of things that are taking place. And I think as we, uh, we're planning to launch a number of initiatives in, in the first half of next year, as we make more headway in the metaverse space.So the other things that we're doing is we invest in, in VR companies. So we made an investment in a company called masterpiece VR. Um, and so there's going to be more development tools. So masterpiece VR is, is a content creator tool that will. People to rapidly create three-dimensional assets. And as you know, the metaverse comprises of all 3d digital assets.And so, um, you know, we view this as getting on the ground floor of a really great, uh, unique creation tool. Um, that will be, uh, you know, one of the primary tools as developers start to build more and more products in VR. So, um, you know, there, there are a number of different avenues that we're looking to capitalize on in terms of, uh, the next year or two within VR.Um, That concerns me here. Cause like, as I said at the top, we are very interested in the metaverse right now. It is the hot topic of the, of the last month. We, we can think, uh, Facebook slash Mehta for that, but we do this a lot, right. Where we get this idea, we focus on it, we get excited and we realize, oh wait, we're still awhile away from adoption.And then we move on. Um, and when I say we, I mean the public investors, the media, right? Whether it's cannabis, whether it's Evie stocks. Um, and, and that concerns me here now with the, with the metaverse um, I think I saw a comment. I think it was a CEO of 10 cent. I could be wrong that said like, everyone like slow down.Like it's gonna, it's going to be, this is a long-term thing, but it's going to take a while. Or maybe we're maybe we're getting ahead of ourselves. Right now, do you do, do you agree with that sentiment? Okay. I do think this is early days, you know, I mean, when you think about Amazon, you know, it started in 1994.Right. But, you know, I mean, you know, you think about 20 years later, it was really when the true premise of what Amazon or the Bezos vision was really kind of materialized. I think this is sort of a similar kind of paradigm where we're in, uh, in the early stages of a, uh, computing revolution that could largely, you know, it could be larger than the mobile computing revolution and, um, has the potential for, you know, massive value creation.I think it is still very much early days and that we are, um, you know, there are a lot of opportunities, right. Uh, for, for picking, however, You know, it's going to take some time for the technology to evolve for the bandwidth constraints to evolve. And we're going to start to see that over the next two to three years.And I think from that point onwards, it's just going to get better and better with each, each year as the technology improves and makes it easier for the average person to spend more and more time in VR. Right. And so when you look at like computer usage in the early nineties or late eighties versus where it is today, it's a similar paradigm that you're going to see with how many people, how much time the average user spends in VR today versus 10 years from now and 15 years from now and so forth.So, um, but that doesn't mean that, um, there aren't, you know, the Amazons of tomorrow that are right for investing in or, or, or focusing on, right. People don't realize that Amazon. Like a decade to figure, figure it out, at least in terms of inter actually know in terms of the business, in terms of the stock.Right. Uh, so, um, I, I, and I, I guess, you know, you mentioned a couple of those initiatives that, that, that you're focusing on, uh, in the, in the first, I guess, quarter or so of next year. Can you, can you, can you pick one and tell them. Yeah. Sure. So, um, so we see obviously gaming is, is one of the biggest opportunities, um, to really enter the, enter the VR experience.And so, um, we want to build a brand for our sales, build a name for ourselves, and we felt that that was the easiest way to start to get in the door. And I think naturally, uh, you know, we believe that much bigger than gaming is our, is our, um, is our thinking. But, uh, you know, we want to kind of start with that inch into it and then start to evolve kind of what we're doing.Uh, I think in general, the entertainment experience is going to be crucial for, um, what can be done in VR. So we've see that as a launching pad for educational experiences in VR, um, for creating entertainment experiences in VR, you know, reading your favorite book, instead of reading it, you could experience it in VR.Um, you know, so things like that I think are where we want to see this go. And by building our first game, we started. Um, build that infrastructure in house and start to set the tone of what we're trying to do, um, and, and start to, uh, kind of unleash the potential of, of what's possible in VR. So I think this is sort of, um, you know, we are trying to ride the wave of VR and as you know, to your point, this is going to take some time to evolve.And so we kind of want to ride that natural organic wave into the, into the, uh, into the future. Uh, Kenneth, uh, Pivar prior, I'm not sure in our chat says that you need some paintings on your wall, but no, he doesn't. You just need some VR stuff on the wall, some AR stuff on the wall. I think that's the paintings are so 19th century.We don't need that. We, we need some VR on the wall. I'm sure I'm not, I don't know how that works. I'm sure you can probably figure it out. Um, and then, uh, the last thing is Ryan Norris asked if, uh, uh, if you can share what you'll be presenting, uh, at the, uh, AR uh, reality event coming. Um, I think, uh, that information should be available on our social media accounts, if you ping them, uh, you know, that information should be there or on our website.Um, you know, but we'll make sure we put it out on Twitter or something where, you know, when there'll be presenting. Uh, and then I guess my last question for you is like how far away is a company like yours from profitability? Not that that ma makes a difference necessarily now, but is that, is that on your radar?Yeah, I think, listen, uh, I, you know, focusing on profitability is crucial for us. I think, you know, we all also trying to balance that with driving top line growth, you know, so, uh, especially when it comes to these cutting edge industries where, you know, requires a good amount of software development and, and, uh, and, and investment in sales and marketing activities.Um, you know, our first focus right now is to continue to drive partnerships, drive top line growth. Um, I do think that profitability is on the horizon. Um, you know, but really right now, our focus is to get some of our key initiatives within all of our segments, um, uh, going to sort of the next phase of our, of our product roadmap and, and hopefully, you know, all of that will continue to drive top line growth and ultimately, um, a higher return on our equity and, and profitability.Awesome. cigarettes, CTX, and he's joining us here on Benzinga live and we appreciate that. Have a good day, have a good rest your day, sir. Thanks. You too. All right. Uh, AB are we running behind schedule? I don't think we are. I think we're somehow. No, we are on schedule. It looks like we're still waiting for our next, we never run on time.This is good. We're waiting for our next guests, Lana chin from a newborn town to join us. I'm sure she'll be joining any. Um, let's go ahead and get cigars banner off the screen. There we go. Spencer, anything in particular you're watching today? Uh, yeah. Yes, frankly. There is a lot of stuff going on in the pre-market session today between, uh, earnings between, uh, the inflation number, like you mentioned.Uh, I was watching Coinbase. I was watching Coinbase because I wasn't surprised by their, uh, by, by what they said in their earnings report that, you know, and maybe we can bring the chart up there and, uh, just, uh, they saw a massive slowdown, right. Uh, in, in activity. And that led to a dry mess, uh, in top line revenue.Um, you've got two catalysts, you've got a bear catalyst, which was the negative or the not so great earnings report. And then you have your bowl catalyst, which is the fact that crypto is at all time highs, but like you said, that was going to be, my point is it's sort of a. You've got on the one hand is a declining, declining retail activity, which they themselves said.We, on the other hand, in theory, there should be some kind of a correlation with Bitcoin. So here's your, you know, when I go down to the five minute chart, you can see here, the, you know, I guess tale of two tapes, you've got the, uh, big leg down after the earnings. But if you, if you just start right there and the stock's doing pretty well since then, um, like you said, I'm not surprised about the bad earnings report because of course this is going to the previous quarter, so it's not taking into account, uh, necessarily all the trading that's happened over the past month, two months since Bitcoin has had its epic turnaround.Um, and the previous quarter wasn't necessarily a great one for crypto. They talked about how, uh, trading was down, like you mentioned. So I dunno. I mean, I, if you went in there and bought the dip right here, you're looking pretty good. I, I think we'll have to see kind of how if Bitcoin and. Blast through there they're all time highs and continue to rip higher.I know a lot of people are calling for Bitcoin to hit a hundred thousand. By the end of the year. If that happens, you can bet your bottom dollar Coinbase will be trading significantly higher. But I think right now I'm just sticking on the sideline. Um, you know, waiting to see kind of what happens. Brent, Brent Slava must listen to the call and sort of Chris catchy because they're saying, oh, it's all about the NFTs, but I didn't know this until the call.So I'm sorry guys. I guess the hyped out the NFT, uh, bandwagon on their call. Uh, so I guess that's a cannabis that I didn't, that I have not considered yet, but, uh, Hey, I have a corn based account. That's where I have my, my, my crypto through. I feel sometimes like I didn't do enough research before.Deciding to open an account one day and, uh, on Coinbase, but that's the brakes? Um, well I think the NFT, it goes hand in hand. I think if we see the NFT hype continue the way what it's doing right now, then we'll see a theory, um, continue to arise. I mean, I think if we, if we see, uh, you know, some wind taken out of the NFT sales per se, then, uh, we'll, we'll see that in the price of Ethereum and other crypto.So I think it's all hand in hand. The NFT though, is I think being taken more and more seriously among the, from the institutional side. So really, no, this is not, this is a Rico story. That's not a bad thing. That's not a, I'm not saying institutions are going out by. Um, a bunch of NFTs. I'm saying more from the sense that like Coinbase is saying, okay.Yeah, we need to get into this space. Um, so more and more big players we'll see, get into all right. I'm also watching Riverton and Ford ravine. There's nothing to see right now. You've got the news feed up on the screen, right there from Benzinger probate that you can see. So, you know, not a real surprise here to see, uh, the stock, uh, going to open above its IPO price of $78 per share.Uh, if you think back to like a week and a half ago, the original, the estimated range was what like 55 to 60. They priced the last night 78. And you can see here all the headlines we have in the pro, as we wait for Vivian to open here, we have, Sherry's indicated as high as 125. Dollars today. Um, so they're still working through the order book, trying to figure out who gets what and at what price, um, and when they get through that, we will have, and we will open and then I'll be watching Ford on top of that.Um, I don't know where Luke Jacoby is or what he's doing right now, but I really, really hope that he sold some of his Ford costs today. He made a fan task trade, and I pulled the Ford chart. I just, I worry here, and this is a daily, so this is good. Let's keep this up. This is a daily chart of Ford. I don't know what the future holds, but if you're all big in, in Ford after this massive run, I would strongly, if it were me, I would definitely take some of my money if want all my money off the table here in Ford, if it was.I don't know about Uribe. Yeah. I mean, anytime that you have the type of returns that Luke has had on this trade, always a smart idea to trim some of those positions. Um, but it can be fun to let them ride too. We will see real fast. What is Ford's market cap? $80 billion. Okay. What is ravines market cap going to be?Well, the valuation was at 65 billion. What was that at? 78. Was that 78? I think that was, um, that was at 70 bucks a share. And we're now potentially $30 above that. Right? We're talking what, like 40%. I don't know that math is hard. I don't know. But, um, so is weaving going to have a higher evaluation than.What's uh, what's the thought process behind Ford owning 10% of heaviness? Is it just the fact that Vivian's going to be a direct competitor? So if they start taking some affords market share that at least forward has some stake in the game. Yeah. Ford and GM. We're both trying to invest in, in Vivian for, uh, for, I think Ford, uh, thought they had it and then thought they lost it to, uh, to GM and the GM thought they had it, but then Ford got it back.Um, uh, pickup trucks are the number one selling vehicle. It's Ford's number one selling vehicle pivoted to a few years ago. Right, exactly. So that's why I'm curious. It's because like I've revealed truck is directly competing with the Ford lightning electric truck. Yeah. But it's more. Yes, but it's more of a case of like, they all have to compete with Tesla in a way.Right. So not really, I don't think the cyber truck's going to be a thing for another. All right. Here's a good one. Take it or leave it. Buyers sell cyber trucks will be on the road. This time next year? No. No. So what about this time? Two years from now? Sure. You think so two years from now? I don't think so.Okay. Definitely not next year. Um, look I Ford and GM, they, they do, this is what they do. They make investments across the space, right? Why the GM go down then the Nico, the rabbit hole, right? It's the same idea. They have to make an investments in this space. So this is part of that. Um, all right. So young money is saying he's selling a one year out cyber truck, but buying two years.Yes. Brent, this is new. This is our new segment. Take it or leave it. Yeah, we came up with that like two minutes before Showtime. Yeah. Let me, well, let me try to think of some more, some good take it or leave it. Well, while you do that, I'm, I'm still just watching the news feed here on reveal and, uh, I would expect it would open within the next day.I obviously can't say for sure, take it or leave it Rivy and shares will be trading with why are we doing, I don't understand why we're doing this, the take of the, even on everything, take her to leave and take, Hey, take it or leave it on, take it or leave it, chat, chat, let us know what you think. But I go back to my point, Luke, I don't know where you are, but if you are, please sell your Ford a little bit.Thank you. Um, because he made a great trade and I worry about days like today being a topping event for, for, uh, uh, Suffolk Ford. So, um, there's that? Okay. Uh, it is 1237. I do not see our next guest here, which means we're going to just keep on rolling. And, uh, we will have, we will have a, uh, another guest coming up at 1245.Uh, the CEO of a equipped, uh, medical Greg Croft will be on the show, uh, in a few minutes from now. Uh, let's go back to our dock where we planned the show to. And I wanted to talk about, let's see, we hit on Coinbase. We hit on Trivian. Um, I want to talk about Disney actually, because Disney reports earnings tonight.They're in my never sell portfolio, but we have two events coming up. We have earnings tonight and we have their, uh, their Disney plus streaming extravaganza, whatever you want to call it event on Friday where they're going to like, say, Hey, look, look, you know, all the really cool stuff we have coming up on Disney plus.So two potential catalysts for Disney, the chart doesn't look great. Can you pull it out please? The chart does not look great right now. Um, I think it was trading around its 200 day moving average, uh, this morning, maybe, maybe the fifth today. Let's go out to the daily chart. I don't know Spencer it's been trading sideways.It's done nothing for the majority of the. Almost the entire year ranks and nothing for the last, what the high was in March. Right. Um, we go back out high was right here March. Yeah. So we've done nothing here for, for nine months. Sometimes stocks just like to take a little break from, yeah, I know. So I want to know how you feel about this.I want you to, you can, I don't intend to, I'm not selling this thing, but, but what can we think about this in the context of like Netflix and what they said? Cause they cause they're, you know, they pumped the brakes on their earnings report. Uh, Roku, Pomona, the brakes on theirs as well. Um, and I, I don't know.I I'm, I'm worried, like I can wake up on Monday and Disney's. I don't know what, if we did like a straddle on Disney where we said, we think it's going to move at least a 3% neither direction that yes, actually you want to set that up? Because I would definitely, I've never put it on a spread before, so Oscar it up, but I would take that bet who is, um, you know, let's wait, let's wait for Nick to come on.Okay. Nick Shaheen is our options guy, but what let's have Nick walk us through, uh, but he's not going to want it to it. Like I, it's not going to be as much of a Yolo trade once Nick is on your right. Nikki, Nick is not going to yellow his money on him. It's going to be very like defined loss and that's, that's fine.That's boring. Yeah. All right. Oh, uh, from affirms reporting earnings today, uh, I mean, uh, firm's just been an absolute monster ever since the, uh, the Amazon deal. It's coming off a little bit. Well, wait, the earnings are tonight and it's already down 12%. Sounded good side. He'd be running sorority. Yeah.Someone in the chat said, um, affirming there's 10,000 of these a day. I can't keep up. Yeah. And I'm sorry, the earnings were not out after close today. So does someone just know something we don't know? And that's why the stock is trading down. You have to look at it within the context of like, what is trading up and what is trading down today?Oh, so many of these hot stocks are just getting like punished right now. Like how has the pop up start ups T how's that hanging today? Not great. Spencer. It's down about 18 and a half percent. Yeah. I mean, it's up from the open, but the boat that's down this upstart do loans. Okay. That was it. That was a trick question.You're trying to get me. It was trying to get me. I know I've started. Does they do wounds? There are FinTech lenders smash. The like, if you got that right. Um, any, any other stocks that were watching some crazy movement on today? We I've been watching roadblocks all day. So roadblocks from mortgage monster quarter.Great earnings was up about 20, no 30% yesterday. And is now trading lower, uh, by about 8%. So this might just be a little sell off after that massive rip up or, uh, I don't know. I mean, a lot of times when a company reports great earnings and it goes up like 10%, my thought process is all this can't keep going up.And what does it do? It keeps going up. How many times have I said that to myself this year too many, but, so I actually bought some roadblocks yesterday while it was up about 30% and now it's down 10%, so who knows? Nice. Very nice. Uh, okay. We'll have our next guest on Greg Crawford in a couple of minutes.Let's catch up on the chat. Um, happy saying reveal and shares will be indicating at 105 that's unconfirmed, but, well, that's just, that's just the block. That's just a block of shares. We have to get to the whole thing first. So, um, yeah, but you know what let's do, let's do an informal survey slash poll on the chat and whoever gets closest, we'll get some swag.Okay. Drop your, and drop your price in the chat where we'll reveal and open know that the IPO price was 78. The most recent indication was 1 0 5. The highest indication was 1 25. Um, drop your number in the chat. What price does ravine open for trading at when, if it even opens today? That of course it opened that wasn't to.Ah, we got some numbers, 1 2197 96, 1 25, 1 to 32 voodoo. Wow. That's Polish 81 proton 81. I think you're on the low end of that one. Proton. Uh, we got, when we got 90 in there, we got 94, 1 29 50. I love the, the, the specificity of that down to the penny. 1 25 51 to three, one to 5 93, Shelly 64 K. Get out of here, Shelly, 64, come on.Be serious. Okay. So I seem to have a consensus of a, someone on the 1 0 5 to one 20 range. We're waiting for this. And when it, when it comes out, we will be, uh, we will be there for it when it happens. Of course, in Cal asking this. Uh, the million dollar question is where does it close? If I knew that answer, I'd be a very rich man.I guarantee you, man. I almost, I want to bet right now. You want to bet on, but I don't know. I want to bet it closes. It closes down from the open. So, uh, you're coming from the open. Huh? That's a good, that's a good point. Cause you can't trade it. You can't trade options. Yeah, it will close up from the IPO and down from the open is my, that's not a very hot take though.That's I think that's that's that's that's a common thing we see. There are sites you can bet on certain events on. I don't know. That's a good question, Spencer. Okay. Uh, while we digest that let's bring on our next guests. Um, this is an interesting one, uh, this, this company, uh, in many respects and you can see it in, in the chart of their stock, uh, is seen as a COVID play.Uh, and now that we are. Uh, hopefully maybe trying to come out of that, uh, companies like our next, uh, our next one, our, our, our, you know, figuring out where they stand in the future here in a real post code the world. So Greg Crawford is the CEO of Quip to medical. That's getting them up on the screen if we can.Mr. Crawford, how are we doing today? Doing great. How about yourself? Thanks was my, was my introduction, a fair assessment. I have to tell you as far as being a COVID play, I think you're off on that COVID is held this company down and that for over a year and a half from executing on our organic growth, although we've grown about 10% over the past couple of years, each year, we're on pace this year for 11% or so.Uh, but, uh, well, I had, I had assumed though, cause you, you make ventilators. Yeah. Yeah. But all of our services are, uh, home-based services, um, here, uh, patients inside their homes. And we have not been able to expand our Salesforce and, and our current Salesforce has not been able to quite go as deep as they'd like to in some of the different referral sources because of the visitation restrictions and things like that.So we think we're going to do much better once we get outside of COVID. So of all the different products. And I mentioned the home ventilation, but you guys also, you, you, you make a sleep apnea, um, uh, treatments, uh, and, uh, and of all your different products and services, what, what is, what is the highest growth area right now?Yeah, so the highest growth area for us really, it's just across our entire respiratory category. So this year we're up about the 40% and that just over 40%, about 10% of that is organic. Uh, so we continue to see strong demand for all of our products as just the overall. For home-based care and services.Uh, it has been going on for quite some time. And I think COVID is really just kind of brought it more to the limelight rationalization is that these patients can be taken care of in the home setting rather than a hospital setting. So, yeah, go ahead. Oh, I was just gonna say, so Greg, you you've spoke before about the company's acquisition strategy.Um, and I'm just curious if you, if you can outline that again for our audience here today. Yeah, sure. So we have a three tiered acquisition strategy. Um, right now we would consider ourselves kind of a regional player. We're currently in 15 states, uh, uh, this year to date we've added five new states. Uh, so we continue to look for opportunities in that to expand into new states, uh, obtain new insurance contracts within those states.Uh, and that's kind of the first tier in that of our acquisition strategy is, is really looking for so. Uh, $5 million type companies, but they, uh, they've got an infrastructure and they hold a lot of insurance contracts that allows us to kind of go in and capitalize on that particular market that they're in.And then also add continuum markets. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt. Keep going. Yeah, no. The second tier of our strategy is to look for heavily weighted respiratory companies. Uh, typically those companies we're seeing in the five to $20 million top line revenue range, uh, and then the third tier, and that is to look for much larger, more material size acquisition from a revenue standpoint and an EBITDA EBITDA standpoint.And right now with our a robust pipeline, we've got all three of those, uh, to date and that we've, uh, since about, uh, July, we've closed six acquisitions for a total of about $16 million in top line revenue growth. Wow. And how are you funding this? Um, mostly all cash with our. Current cash on hand. So, uh, occasionally we will, we will issue some shares if we want to align some management in that with our culture to keep them on.So Greg, I understand there was a, a recent acquisition. Do you want to go ahead and speak a little bit about that? Yeah, sure. So we just expanded in the state of Illinois in that, uh, via the way of an acquisition, uh, was a really, uh, Illinois, a very important state for us. It's one of the top, uh, states there with, uh, patients with, uh, high acuity of lung disease and COPD.And that's what we're really looking to heavily expand in that state, but it also kind of aligned a Metro market for us in, in that, between us St. Louis and Chicago, uh, where we currently have operations. Uh, so, uh, we were able to add about 3,700 patients and about, uh, two and a half million dollars in top line revenue and also connect to geographical areas along with some important insurance contracts to operate in that.Greg, you mentioned COVID being a headwind in that it, it did sort of hinder your Salesforce a little bit, but I'm curious aside from that, what have you observed in the last year and a half in terms of, um, patient behavior? Uh, for context, my, uh, fiance doesn't anymore, but she used to work in a senior living community and, uh, she just recently left, but having worked in, you know, there for, for a, for seven or eight years, uh, and the changes that she saw in the last year and a half, uh, we're we're startling just in terms of.Just their census was got so low. And part of that was due of course, to, to, uh, to people passing away, but also people not moving in. Right. So, and, and choosing to stay at home more. Uh, and I'm, I'm just curious what, what you've observed in terms of patient behavior in the last year. Yes, absolutely. In that, I mean, that kind of, uh, dovetails off of our story here in that, whereas we're taking care of the patients and the home-based setting in that, and they require our equipment and our services to go along with those particular products.So, so that's where we've really been, uh, stepping in and making a difference in the marketplace. There we've seen trends in our referrals, in that we've primarily been hospital-based in long-term care based kind of referrals in that, which is what we, that's where the majority of our business comes from.But we've seen a lot of that, uh, go direct to the physician. And that's a, rather than that, physician may be sending them to the hospital or long-term care. We feel that, uh, they're, they're ordering these products directly from their offices. Uh, and we think that we're also getting these patients earlier in the onset of their disease state, uh, which bodes very well for us because then we're able to keep them on service.Yeah, this, this to me seems like a demographics play more than anything else, right? It's it's, it's, it's a family thing. It's just a bet on getting older and needing, needing more medical attention. Yeah. Yeah, definitely. There's 10,000 people turning 65 or older every day. And that's, that's really, that's our core market.Uh, the market itself has grown about five or 6% a year. So we've kind of been, uh, doubling that the past few years. So you mentioned expanding to different states. You mentioned Illinois, uh, is the eventual plan here to be in every state because right now you're in, I believe what, like a dozen we're in 15.Yes, absolutely. We're looking to build out a national presence in that as we continue to expand in that, uh, both, uh, organically and inorganically through acquisition. So Greg, um, as the industry of kind of home health care grows, are there areas that you think investors should be looking out for ways to kind of invest in the home care industry as a whole?Like, is it in telehealth? Is it in companies like yours that provide, uh, equipment for people to have at-home care? Yeah. I mean, it could be all of the above. I think anything that's home-based care, whether it be home health or it'd be durable medical equipment or a, some type of tele-health or something, uh, you know, would definitely be a good investments if that's what you're looking to do with your money.And what do you think the timeline is on that? Do you think? Uh, like the whole look of healthcare looks different than it does today in, in 10, 20 years down the road? Yeah, I think, uh, the push for home health care, and that is only going to continue in that. Uh, and I think, uh, COVID has really kind of brought that to the limelight that, uh, now physicians.Insurance companies can see that these patients can be taken care of and in the home setting, rather than going to a long-term care type setting or a hospital or something for some of their, uh, elements that they need treated, especially with our remote monitoring patient, uh, features that we have on our ventilation and our sleep products and things like that.Greg, you mentioned in your investor deck, the, the strong regulatory or the favorable regulatory environment right now, uh, what, what exactly makes the regulatory environment so favorable for equipped? Yeah, so for us, so there's been a program that was implemented in 2010 called the DMV competitive bidding program.Uh, that's where the industry really had undertaken some drastic cuts from 10, 2010 to 2016. You've seen a lot of consolidation in the industry at that time. Um, but really since 2010, uh, or since 2016, I'm sorry, the industry has not seen any, uh, significant reimbursement. And the program, uh, the DME competitive bid program was set to take effect January 1st, 2021.And it was actually, uh, Medicare had removed, uh, 13 product categories, which is essentially everything that Quip provided to Medicare beneficiaries. Um, for this round, that was to begin January one. And the reason they removed it is quote their, their quote. They did not achieve the expected savings. Uh, so.When the rates actually came out in early January of this year and that they were actually about 30 to 40% higher in some major metropolitan areas, uh, for services that we provide. So, you know, we can definitely see why they remove those because they sure didn't want to pay us additional. So we think with where the rates sit right now, uh, you know, we're just got a clear outlook in that for what our fee for service looks like in that, uh, for the foreseeable future.Also we've recently here in 21, we've also received, uh, some increases, um, on oxygen rates that had begun, uh, April 1st, 2021 also, uh, for home oxygen, there has been some changes in that to the coverage determination, and also for the types of patients that they cover in that. Now patients with acute diagnosis is beginning in 2022 will become.Uh, for home oxygen services and also they've removed some of the burdensome paperwork that's required. Uh, in curious as the medical device side of your business, I'm wondering if you have seen or felt any sort of supply chain scrubbiness yes, absolutely. That's the official term, by the way, if we had to pick something wacky there in that, uh, you know, going on a headwind in the industry, it would definitely be supply chain.Uh, you know, so we've definitely had that. We've had it throughout the entire pandemic. We continue, uh, just access to a certain products and services at a given time. Uh, but we've done a great job of managing through that. Being able to forecast what our needs are and that's really, that's still kind of driving the organic growth is our ability to actually get products.So I think we're doing better than, uh, probably a lot of other providers out there, especially a lot of the quote, mom and pop providers out there. There's over 6,000. So with our buying abilities, uh, in our forecasting abilities and that we've been able to kind of preplan a little bit better. Yeah. I find it so fascinating because it seems like the access to this at-home medical care, it's almost like we're going back in time to when it was commonplace for doctors to make home visits, of course, with new technology.But, um, I just think this industry as a whole, as far as being able to get medical care at your home, uh, is fascinating. We'll continue to grow. Yes, no doubt about it. I think we're seeing everything home bare, uh, home-based care or anything kind of go home base from delivery service of food and, and Dayton all the way back to get your milk delivered.I guess you could say. You can get groceries delivered now. That's true. I hadn't thought I hadn't thought about it like that, but, uh, that's a good point. Greg Crawford is the CEO of Quip medical us here on Benzinger live. Greg, appreciate the time. Have a good one. Thank you. We appreciate it. Have a great day.All right. Uh, let's get that banner off the screen and we're going to have our next guest on in a couple of minutes. Jessica Kaylor will be joining us. So, uh, we'll be talking some trays and some charts with Jesse at one O clock. Uh, in the meantime, Riviera has not yet opened. I actually, haven't seen a new indication in a few minutes.Talk about Uber puts in the chat. Yeah, a lawsuit. Um, I guess from the DOJ regarding the America, the ADA, the American with disabilities act. Um, again, we talked about this off the top of the show, right? I just don't for whatever reason, I just don't think. The street really cares about this kind of a headline?Well, I think what's interesting. And what I always like to do is if I'm looking at a company like Uber, I want to see its relative strength or weakness compared to peers. So obviously with Uber it's biggest, uh, peer would be Lyft. Uh, but you have others as well. Like door dash is up a bunch today, I think on strong earnings.But, um, the, the fact to me, when, if you just look at it, I mean, Lyft is down too, but Lyft is down about one, about 1.3%. Well, Uber is down. Let's see about, about 3%. So to me, that's showing saying that look, investors are, uh, you know, there's more sell pressure on Uber than Lyft today. And I don't know. I mean, I, I can get behind some Uber puts, I already don't like Uber.As a, as a, as a stock. Really? Yeah. I mean, the company just has profitability issues. They have a legal problems as easy Mike is pointing out. And like you said, let's zoom out on a weekly. No, let's go to a monthly on Uber, Spencer. You were talking about this the other day that you, you just think the, um, I guess business model of, you know, the, the food delivery, the Uber, I think it's wrong.I think that, I think it's terrible for small businesses. Yeah. And I mean, I don't know. I think, I dunno. I, I, I'm looking at Uber puts, I'm not saying this is this stock's going to trade lower in, in the next week. I don't know. I don't know. Make a call. Um, give us a hot take, make a stand standing for something.I am buying I'm tailing. Easy mic, easy mic. That's good enough for me. Okay. All right. And the fact that I already don't like the business model. Uber, uh, for whatever it's worth, um, is, is, is trading above. Speaking of IPO is trading above its IPO price, um, and above its opening price of $38. So it took a long time to get there, took over.It took over a year to get there year and a half, but, uh, finally falling in the black, if you bought Uber on day one, um, okay. Are going to keep our eyes on reveal fun, just to see in this pulpit chart here, just to see when it opens. I don't think it, it has, uh, our IVN. It has not, but when it does open, we will know, and we will talk about it.But in the meantime, let's talk about, uh, some other charts with Jessica Kaylor from elite trading. Jones's every Wednesday on this show, we'll bring him on now, Jesse. What's up, man? How are we doing? Oh, it's doing great. How you guys doing? Uh, we're hanging in there, man. Hanging in there. It's Wednesday. It's daylight savings.It gets dark at like two o'clock now. And, uh, it is what it is. So, uh, what stocks do you watch them today? There's a lot going on out there. Um, I was watching the bank stocks, uh, looking at some hotel resorts, you know, rrr. Um, I've been looking at the Neo node. The one that I brought up actually with you guys, uh, sometime early last year when they were around six, we, we had that target of nine currently.I'm almost breaking that $10 mark. So I was going to go show you, share that one off today. Um, but let me share real quick. Did we, do we just get, do we open upour, it was $6 and 75 cents. $106. I have to refresh my, my chart now $106 and 75 cents for revealing bada Bing, bada, boom. I'm not going to go back into the chat and see who came close. I'm sure one of you came close here. It's 1 0 8. It's rolling. Let's see, I'll go. Since Spencer refuses to. Thank you. Thank you.I appreciate that. Yeah. Uh, we had someone guests one 10. What, what was it open at 1 0 8 grant Gibson with a 1 0 9 oh oh Dunkin. Bracey no. Oh, wait a minute. We didn't say what we're doing. Price is right. Rules are not. What is price is right rules. You can't go over and go closest without going over. Dunkin Gothic hosts without going over.But technically grant came closest. Ooh, wait, why did grant come open that? What 1 0 8 74. Sorry, James sands. He has, he always says hi every day. We had a couple of guesses for 1 0 9 AP grant Gibson. Um, yeah. So good guesses in the chat, everyone.200 and then back down to, no, I, you, you can talk me into one 50 as in the next, like 10 minutes and then, and the end of the day at like 90, but, uh, I think 200, 200 tad high. I remember, uh, when Coinbase opened, it opened at what, like two or 180 or something and went all the way up to like four 50 and came back down.Oh, ribbons already. Let's see. Well, there's your first road. Nice little red candle. There always wait, it was one of a six happy saying 1 0 6 75. Wait, did I misread? I may have misread it. Oh, it is 1 0 6. Oh my God, Spencer. I screwed up. I messed up. I screwed up. I thought it was 1 0 8. This was one of those off by only $2 back.I, I take back what I said about who was closest. So we're looking for 1 0 6. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. My mistake. I'm sorry. 1 0 6 75 IPO price. It's 78. Congrats to all those people, because they're now making money on their long-term investment. Right. Um, anyway, so we got sidetracked with Vivian. Can we go back to what was on your list?Yeah. And just talk in, um, touch us. I just shared your charts. W w this is Teledyne. Yeah. TDY. They're the biggest competitor to Nia node. And neon was the one that I was talking about earlier, which is touchless. They do like touch of technology for like elevators, um, things of that nature for the future.So. Um, I will have a future. Yeah. Where, you know, a lot of people go in a lot of button touching. You don't want to get in and touch the elevator button. So if you could go up and just like, put just barely even put your hand over the button, then it'll actually put it up, pull it up for you in there. They got a big contract for that.And then they also have it to where they can attach to windows 10 capable computers. And it makes their screen touch screens, uh, touchless. But, well, this reminds me of a game that we used to play when I was a kid, uh, my cousins and I, whenever we w the family would all go to a hotel or whatever the game was run until the elevator hit everyone at the same time and see where you see where it takes here.And you wonder, how do you want to know how that game ended? This is the true story. You all know how that game ended and did it with us stuck in between the floors a little bit. Yes. I swear. I have a cousin who to this day will not get into an elevator with. That was like 20, it was 25 years ago that this happened a little bit less than that 20 years ago.Uh, and he will not get into an elevator with me cause we got stuck and true story anyway. So nobody get on the elevator with a joking. Hey and real quick, other side note, uh, that was actually not my first time being stuck inside an elevator. I've gotten stuck twice. Um, the first time was actually I, uh, the doors closed on me.Um, when I was like six years old, it was a traumatic experience. The bottom line is, do not get into an elevator with me. Okay. If the bottom line here. Um, anyway, let's go back on the charts. Yeah. So we were on, um, with you guys back where this line is here and near at. Um, . Of 2020 and we were watching the same play and we were talking about it as touchless technology.I think I just felt like it was, this is an old company they've been around since 1976. So it's not like a new company and they've, I think this is just finally the, the environment that they needed to. Maybe break away. And when you start looking up, okay, who's are their competitors and you look at TD why a $400 stock, you start thinking, okay, maybe there's, there's a space here that hasn't been touched by a lot of people.And these there they've been in it for a long time. So it's just kind of a long-term idea. Play for me. Maybe they get into this whole metaverse if there's a lot of need for touchless technology in the future. As in video gaming, uh, health wise restaurants going to touchless, um, ordering, servicing stuff, like order style.Um, I think that this is, I think they have a lot of room to grow, so just one that I'll be watching, but today in particular did take a little, um, position in GLD. Um, that was. What are you a boomer? Nah, just, I, I heard triple D talking about it and I was like, you know what? I'm already, I'm already thinking banks, everyone in the chats going and talking gold.And I think that, you know, it, wasn't working for a hedge play for a lot of people, but I just wanted to get maybe 80 cents to a dollar, just a little bit, just to have some green today out of the red morning, I woke up to and I made, you know, made that, made that dollar I needed out of them. And I'm not a huge move in a stock.That's $173, but at the same time, it, if it's green, it's green, right? Well, for people like me, that's looking at roadblocks and trying to figure out a way to play roadblocks when it was up 30% yesterday. Now down 10% today, or 8% today. Uh, w what are some options on how we can, you know, play this? Um, if you're synthetically longer, you can sell, puts that are deeply, um, out of the money, maybe, and at a, at a position that, you know, maybe a strike that you would feel comfortable buying them.And then you collect that premium every week or month until it gets down to that price. And until you're willing to pay for it, and you use that money that you make off the premiums to pay for more of the shares. Okay. What, so, so what if I sold puts at like $80 and then I bought a put at, I dunno, 95 or something.So if I thought it was going to continue to go down for a little bit, but not all the way to my lower strike price, then you're going to make that money off that 95 all the way as it goes down. And then you're going to also be able to collect that premium as long as it remains above that $80. You just want it to just end up between 80 and, um, what'd you say?95? Yeah, something like that. I mean, do you think something like that? Is it. Uh, yes. If you, if you're, if that's the opinion that you're taking on it, you know, if you think that it's going to fall, um, below that range, now you will lose that 95. If it stays above that, you know, you're going to lose out on that, whatever you pay for the premium on the 95, that's a potential loss there, but, um, it's going to make the, the play possibly a little cheaper for you.Um, it's a good way to do a spread, you know, on, on a stock that you're comfortable with, that you want to buy. Anyway, I would, I would strongly recommend for anyone that's trying, in my opinion, to buy a stock that they want to get in what they don't think that it's at the price they want to buy it. They just sell the puts at the price that they want to pay for it.And then if you get at you get, now, it can be dangerous, especially with Snapchat. Why didn't I do that? Well, so, so, but if I wanted to just sell. And I wasn't doing a spread. You need to have like a certain amount of money in your portfolio to be able to do so, correct? Correct. Yes. But buying us or doing a spread versus just selling the put alone makes it a little bit more affordable.Yes. It alleviates some of that, um, equity that you have to have. So it's, it's all about positions. You know, how, you know, when you're talking a hundred dollars stock, you'd expect someone to have that decent amount of, you know, buying power available. If they're looking to buy a hundred shares of a hundred dollars stock, you know, that's a, that's a big, that's a big one, you know, I think, um, that we're talking, but it's good for people when you're talking, just trying to make premium, even just to, just to do it, like uses, like you just suggested you could do that same way by the 95, sell the eighties and collect that premium regardless of what you want to do position wise in the.Got it.

As they walked on a trail leading to a spring near the town of Dolev, a group of terrorists watching from afar activated a bomb causing the death of young Rina and seriously injuring her father and brother. Two employees of a Palestinian civil rights organization, named Samer Arbid and Abd a-Razak who were also members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine initiated the terror act. This week Benny Gantz, Israel's Minister of Defense, declared six Palestinian organizations acting under the guise of "civil society organizations", are deeply involved with terrorist organizations.
