Is there anything I'm missing because I'm just pumped to get Right into this question Is there anything anything else we need to go over what was that all of us folks All that's for Chris is with us. I didn't even know hey, you know tech TV is back I Think Chris was just chatting actually Tweeting maybe about tech TV recently about like someone asking if he remembers something that happened And it was like 20 years ago or something, you know, but now I I think that means no I'm gonna take that from Geary that that I didn't forget anything your mama He's he's he's just feisty today But I hope you guys all did your homework last week We talked about going to check out cabinet of curiosities and finding episode two Don't find him with the rats, but you can find them right here on hot makes ladies and gentlemen our friend David Hewlett is with us. How you doing David? Very good. Very good better now better now that I'm rat free Rat free rat free. Well, I think last time you were gonna be with us in the middle of the day You're like man, I'm really sorry. I'm just I'm not gonna make it today. And we it gives a dog You know, we totally understand that that happens Especially with the stuff that you know goes around this time of the year too and especially with a hypochondriac like me Decides I've decided I've got everything. I was like Yeah, I've got it all that The hypochondriac is hilarious because then you do watch cabinet of curiosities and you're like, why is he so afraid? You know any start seeing the show full and we'll talk about in a little bit But how you been it's been a long time. That's great. Just great. Yeah Yeah, just being geeking out live lots of time to do that lots time to play and Really, I was funny one of the things I wanted to do before I came on tonight was to sort of look at some of the things that I I'd I'd Bookmarked a number of 3d printing related things that I wanted to check in on and it was just so much fun today So I had like that I had the football on in the background soccer for you Americans sure and Because my wife is obsessed with it. My son is now obsessed with it so I feel like I've got to at least be able to speak to it even if it's only to just cheer for the wrong team at the right time and And yeah, so I just got to I just got to catch up on all this 3d printing stuff Just some great stuff going on I'm sort of obsessed with this with the different industries that it's sort of getting into like like The way they're they're 3d printing rocket ships now and they're they're 3d printing or rocket engines I guess I say and yeah, and the bio the bio printing stuff is just that that's gonna be I mean It's been around for a minute, but it's it's constantly. Yeah, it feels like they're constantly saying hey We did this now. Hey, we did this now. Yeah, it's an iterative, isn't it? Just they just get better and better at doing the they have they get a simple plan And then they they just get better and better and better and actually Well, it feels like eventually it's gonna be an episode of black mirror if you ever inside any of this like not long I think we're there. Are we? Yeah, I mean next thing, you know, we're gonna be like meeting you in person And then I come away with a piece of your hair and next thing I have like a David like master like right here You can we were it's funny one of the conversations we got into and I do it like a kids club thing online kids club thing called tech Bandits and one of the things that came up recently, which I'm sure parents would love me discussing with children Was the idea that like once we can lab bro meet like once you can 3d print this stuff or grow it or whatever you end up doing You could eat any meat. So why not have like a human steak? Like why not why not grow a hulet, you know, a hulet steak and nicely marbled hulet steak and have that for dinner I mean if it's lab grown is it cannibalism? That's it That was the discussion the general consensus was But there was definitely some some like hmm. Well, actually And then we start talking about woolly mammoths You could like if you could like you could grab you could extract a little DNA and start getting woolly mammoth steaks Well, imagine how many cats would be left in China if we anyways Or eating just eating just eating in general everyone being able to eat stuff that was local I mean like it was local to your basement basically Oh, man, man, I wonder how does fluffy taste, you know, we should grow them. Let's find out Well, oh god, I missed that dog. I feel like one of those steaks Yeah, then there's something really weird about it because once you take away any of the problems with that Like once you take away like what is the deal when it's not what it's just It's just growing on a little plate somewhere. It's not thinking. It's not, you know, it's not being tortured and killed In a way, I would prefer I'd much rather have a steak without thinking Oh god, you saw that animal in half It's kind of it's conflict free meat. Is that where we're going here? Well, that's good. I think that's it I mean, I think to some extent Yeah cash indeed the money indeed I just think it's So they kind of need about it because I feel like well first off, you know me any kind of excuse to make things more complicated and techy The better there you go. There you go if I can if I can geek out over a steak I'd be very excited about that. It would be interesting. I would definitely test that I know we have chocolate printers, but I mean, you know make the chocolate in the printer But you can print with it. Um, so I mean Why not I matter of fact ellie uh at at earth ellie would not let me lay under the extruder and just like pour it In my mouth. I she's like, absolutely not and can't do that The burns treated for burns And she says didn't know what I would do too And and she says didn't the FDA approve meat in lab for consumption. Uh, wow I think recently there was recently there was some kind of movement on that. Yeah Yeah Is he asking if like lab grown meat was approved or if they approved like being able to eat like a sandwich in a laboratory That's a good question. Yeah They've been cleared to eat lunch in the labs. Well done. I think k2 answered it. Um, I think we've been already eating it for a lot of years Yeah, maybe actually that's true the pink slime or whatever they called that. Uh, that was a big thing for a while Um, I I quite like the veggie burgers now, which I never thought I would once I stopped thinking of them as a meat replacement I've actually the impossible burgers like one of my favorite and w burgers now You know what, uh, I have to agree. I like I like turkey burgers. I like I mean, I don't know if I've actually had an actual impossible burger Um, but we they're my favorites so far. Are they do I mean, I don't have to try one now. Is that the one? I think it's an impossible burger king Is that burger king? I get I get the confused. I don't know. Yeah, but I I mean, I love like turkey burgers and then Any of that kind of stuff, but that's not really the same as an impossible burger, but we do get Um, these chicken nuggets and oh the fake nuggets remind them. I cannot for the life. Remember what they're called There's like fake ones. Yeah, that's right. Oh, no, it's beyond me. It's the beyond meat burger. That's the one That's the end there you go And apparently it's terrible for you because they just they just shove it full of everything else But it's so there's something about the meat in these the processed meat in these restaurants now that just It's just kind of sometimes it just it's a little too You know Corn nuggets for me. Yeah. She is watching. Yes corn nuggets. There you go I we throw them in the air fryer and they are so good corn nuggets Really? Absolutely. They're called corn q u o r n. I think is that that's how you spell it Oh, because god forbid you spell it in a way anyone would guess right Yeah, not like not like corn. Yeah, we are in wisconsin. I could see that happening. It's got the juice It's got the juice Oh man the corn kid that guy that kid is amazing Um, but you know talking about all this this eating flesh and uh, maybe not flesh, but meat Um, we should definitely go straight into it. Did not we should yeah We should definitely go not corn nuts not corn nuts Um, we should definitely go back a minute and and talk about halloween and then you know cabinet of curiosity is that We've seen you in it. It's netflix if you've not seen this Find it and find episode two. I suggest watching them all but find episode two specific. Yeah, they're fun Um, it is how because you've been a part of it How would you explain the show as a whole not your episode but like everything? It's kind of like alfred hitchcock presents. It's like an old or an old twilight zone series where it's basically It's an anthology. He's collected like gear mo. There's something about like Mexican artists that are so good at like sharing the wealth like they just like it's not he does He gets an anthology series. He doesn't say oh, i'm gonna direct all my favorite shows and all my favorite stories He literally hands them out to his favorite directors and says here you do it and then supports them Like to the very end. I mean vincenzo. There's even uh, so the for the one we did There's even a black and white version which originally was going to be all black and white We shot it in black and white. So if you go to the trailers and more section of the you can watch it in black and white I'm telling you it's I'm gonna have to go back now. I I I didn't see that But but it's very muted anyways, but yeah, so basically it's an anthology of horror So it's a bunch of different people's perspectives on a bunch of different stories um, this is really fun. So one of my other favorite ones was one called the uh, Is it the outside? Is that is the the one about the the did you see the one about the face cream? I don't know if I got to that one. I didn't get to see them all It's this brilliant actress who plays this rather sort of Nerdy dorky looking. I'm gonna have to go unfortunate woman who who ends up, uh, You know buying this special face cream that's supposed to make her more beautiful But she has a terrible allergic reaction to it and it just progresses from there And it's it's sort of like a weird combination of like black mirror meets You know like the twilight zone kind of stuff and it's really That's the way I've been describing it to people is basically like think black mirror But apply Guillermo del Toro's a level of uh, like grotesque and yeah do it like you know Yeah, it's like a gothic horror version of of black mirror. Yeah, that's a good way to put it And it's um, when Geary Let's see. I'm looking uh on the episodes. I'm not sure. Oh, that's a good way to put it Get folks tale version of the twilight zone. Yeah, it does have a sense of that There you go Well in in uh, you know, we were watching it Um ahead of time we were you know preparing for halloween preparing for you to be on too And I was like we have to watch this and and these days there's so many shows There's so many shows to catch up on and especially when I give up. I don't know how yeah I was gonna say especially when like um, my my wife lindsay gets to stay home with the little guy full time job Is it's a crazy job staying at home with the two and a half yeah two and a half year old forget it That's that's like a football player can't keep up with that But then you know, I'm a You know with with um all the other stuff we have going on and the channel and stuff Um, the time that we get to spend at home watching shows is not what it used to be So we're so far behind and I was like we have to start watching Uh, we have to watch we have to watch some of these and and actually get to yours and and some of the other ones and Um, so we were preparing because they get older. They start taking all the tv time Or you can't watch the stuff because they're awake, but um, yeah, we were terrible about that. We we saw we jumped in I was like I mean, I think as long as it's not terrible I never I yeah, I you know, it's one of those ones that I I never minded the idea that The kid would see sex stuff, but the reality is after a while you're like, I don't want to watch sex stuff With my this at any sex scenes in a movie. You don't want to watch it with your kids They don't want to be there. You don't want to be there. It just gets you know, that's funny Well, and and we got to yours and um, no idea where we're going to go because each episode is completely different Like oh, yeah, it's it's not connected. It's not just like like like you said black mirror or Um, any of the other old old school shows like you're always the only connection. Yeah, exactly Wandering in you know, he's like the near in the narrator and the storyteller You know kind of the the the crypt keeper Yeah, absolutely the keykeeper. I actually I mean That's it But so so you dive in and in spoiler there will be a couple spoilers for one. There's a lot of rats um We talked Talked a little bit about this before the show and I had to ask you like did you really get to crawl in like someone made It's so hard if you haven't seen this I don't want to give it away But at the same time I want to talk about it. So like there's something you were crawling through. We'll say that Yeah, they I actually made that did you do it? I think I think they see even in the trailer you see I think you see tons. You definitely see tummies Okay, but they had so I had a wardrobe fitting and I went in and as all is Whatever you work with Guillermo on any of Guillermo's stuff The wardrobe is always just like just perfect like we've got louis is the guy who does it and he's just does this He's just he's a perp absolute everyone who works with Guillermo is like an absolute perfectionist except me I just fall around and trip over things But but um, and he designed, you know, all of these beautiful wardrobe for me. But during the wardrobe fitting They said, okay, uh, now we have to do a tunnel fitting. I was like, what? They're like, they're like, well, what is the smallest you can be and crawl And still be able to crawl. So I'm like literally crawling around the ground Like this with some of the tape measure trying to measure me and they were like, okay, great That's the size and then I went away for Christmas and I and I and I was like, wait a second I'm gonna like I all I do is eat like Christmas Christmas dinner is like my Christmas is just eating I expand three or four times. So I literally called up. I said like you want to add a couple inches to the uh the tunnel because I'm gonna be because I had Christmas Turkey in there as well. So yeah, but yeah, they designed a series An amazing series of tunnels, um, and they were so conscientious. I was like, okay, where am I going? And they're like, well, here's what we've done. We've got rubber dust and this and to stop you from because they're worried about Apparently you have to go these medical things and I of course list the meant the litany of things that I have wrong with me I take great glee in that And one of them was asthma and they're like, oh my god, we can't have him in tunnels if he's got asthma And I was like, ah, whatever, you know, I got it. I mean, it'll add to the effect Yeah, exactly. It's choking to death. That's perfect. Um, and uh And they so they came up with all this like rubberized like dirt So that there was it would kick up a little bit of stuff and not nearly as much as if they were just, you know, piling You know dust and dirt on sure. Yeah, that that's crazy a tunnel fitting. Someone says, are you saying I'm fat? Oh, that's exactly what they were saying. Battle cry says, um, we know the truth. It's a full-time job Watching gym as well. Yes. That's that's your story Um 100% sure but so so I mean, when you when you read through this thing at first, um, what were your initial thoughts? Like I I I want to talk about like the props and and the outfit and stuff like that, but I got it. I got it. Like when you looked at this thing, you were like I mean, what like what's in your head? It was one of those there's very few I I hate reading scripts I hate reading. I hate reading scripts. It's like my most hated chore is having to read these bloody things Like, you know, if I could just skip to my lines, I would but in this in this one I started reading it and I was like it was like I was like, oh my god. Oh my like I didn't even really Clue into What I was gonna have to do. I was just too busy reading the story And then of course like right away. I just called up for turns. I was like, oh my god. This is amazing It's fantastic. And you know, when do we start type thing and um You know, uh, it was so I just like I truly think it's one of vincenzo's best scripts ever Like I just I feel like and you know, he I think he would say he writes to direct You know what I mean? Like that's his but but this was just this just had everything like it was just It has like monologues and like comedy and and and then just this horrendous sense of dread and horror throughout the whole thing And it was funny because filming it Filming it didn't feel nearly as bad as watching it if that makes sense Like I would step back and watch it take you go like oh here like he'd show you a take and say look You could just do this or that or and then as I'm watching it. I'm going like, okay, I don't Okay, I just gotta go back in Yeah, let me from from outside. It's like watching it is much worse than actually experiencing it Really, I I guess like on the when you're doing it You're probably not thinking about how bad it looks and all that you're thinking about what you need to do And then you come out and you're like, you're generally busy. Yeah. Yeah screaming praying Dying getting drug around. I mean by the by the rat people. Yeah, not really rat people I'm not sure what to call the big thing. I mean, I called her baby. I mean, she's she's she's the rat queen Basically, I mean she's just that wonderful like and she's just the epitome of like a she's like straight out of like a Stephen King short. She's like out of you know night shift or something like it's like She's glorious then you had that poor skeleton. You know, you just yeah that thing that thing was relentless This is a fantastic story that apparently in the original I guess in the original story there was there was the the the this reanimated corpse thing and And I think what Vicenzo was rewriting it He was like I I you know, I I think we got enough with the rats So he he put in this rat queen and he sort of like focused on the rats as the main thing and then and He sent the script to Guillermo and Guillermo said I said, this is the wonderful wonderful the you know, I can't do I can't do Guillermo justice But you know, there's like a wonderful wonderful. This is a magnificent. I love the the the the rat Where's the zombie? He's like, well, I took it out because I can't you can't have both because no no no no You must have two two vectors of horror And uh, he was like, but it doesn't really make sense like why is Like why is it there? Like why is there a Why is there a reanimated corpse in there as well? And he goes it that's what makes it scare days because like there's no reason It's just madness So yeah, I love it. Uh, he's so supportive and he's so It's funny actually Vicenzo and I've said this I embarrass Vicenzo all the time with this But I Vicenzo and Guillermo are very similar and they're absolute Love and dedication to film absolutely just just F and love every aspect of it. They just they revel in it. They they live it. They breathe it They they worship but the the temple of film I mean, you know, and as a result they are They're you know, everyone wants to do their best work for them So you just have their crew is just so dedicated and so good at what they do. It was just it was amazing You know and halloween who doesn't want a halloween special I was just gonna say it was so it was so good. If you haven't seen it um You have to you just go find it's on netflix cabinet of curiosities And I'll see you in your nightmares. Yes. Yeah, you have to watch It's it's like one of those if you haven't seen it now Now you have to go watch it because just a picture and to watch it in black and white Why not? I mean that yeah, the black and white is gorgeous because it's it's like a it's uh Got a camera name the name of the of the uh, of the artist, but there's I have one of his books, but it's uh Oh bernie reyton bernie reyton is this fantastic old but he was he's no longer was but but uh, You know black and white graphic novel artist He does this beautiful frankenstein stuff and it's all this incredible use of like just darkness and a little bit of A few little lines and oh, it's and he that's really sort of one of the Inspirations for this for the approach to it and it's just uh, it's just gorgeous I mean it's fun with the muted colors as well. I've got to say but you know, you get a little blood in there I think it would be pretty fun. Uh What we did have a comment. Let's see. So so david do most tv slash movie studios 3d print All of their props or or at this point. I I don't know about all of them But I think it depends. It definitely depends like something like see Um, you would do I think a lot of it was sort of found Objects they took a lot of you know again because it was based on a sort of a post apocalyptic world There's a lot of stuff that they built themselves and welded together and all that kind of stuff It's all the same maker skills that you would need But they you know, except someone gets paid for them. It's it's you know, the stuff they did is just beautiful Um, uh, you know, but then a lot of the times they'll do things like They need like stunt versions or multiple versions of things Um, and so usually they're doing casting but I like they'll they'll cast like foam models and that kind of sure um, but 3d printing. I mean It's it's it's a it's a big part of even that process I mean, you know in some cases they're 3d printing parts They're certainly in a lot of cases they're using the 3d software to visualize it Um, and they'll print out little models to show you know to show the the directors what they're working on and stuff That's awesome. But yeah, it's a big it's a big part of it like we when we were doing stargate It don't it was very very expensive and very and very you know limited in what you could do with the 3d printer Now honestly Like it's one of my pet peeves now is I feel like I feel like the cosplay communities props are in many cases better than what we're using on set you know, um That they there's because there's so much time and dedication and love put into these these Homemade diy prop stuff that they have more detail and they're more in some cases even you know They do more in some cases than the props themselves nice someone someone literally just Chatted me while we were talking you have rodney fricking mckay on your show right now We have a uh full stargate in the house sweet As one of the one of the technologies that I that I was telling you about the ones that I was looking into the space The the the company that prints rocket ships so their printers are called the stargate printers Oh, that's how I first learned about them. They're like literally called stargate printers and I was like well That's a company. I need to work for I love it. What's this on this is on uh Instagram, I think I'll find it while we're talking and you mentioned uh, you mentioned, um, see that's on apple tv I don't have apple tv. I've I've admittedly never seen any of that because I don't have apple tv It is the weirdest show like I love it But it is the weirdest show like I don't know who managed to pitch this idea of Of you know, let's do a post apocalyptic future where everyone's blind Sure, but it's an action show and you're like what how does that work? Like everybody everybody's blind literally everyone's blind So it's like mad max only everyone's blind and it was but as a result it's really kind of a cool I mean only apple could do it. It's it's such a it's such an odd an odd choice And then it started and it was a very sort of I think very sort of serious heavy um almost like You know almost art like series um, and then tropper came in the guy I worked with and He started like finding the humor in it and and turning it into more of a of a crazy action series You brought in like, you know bautista and uh, so you got bautista versus momoa and then you know, and then me Hi, you know Yeah, so it starts quite heavy and becomes like this really Really fun. I mean start it's and it's beautiful. It's absolutely gorgeous But it's definitely gonna have to find a way to watch it without apple tv. I'm not sure I don't know what you can possibly rent it or something or yeah um They used to give away apple free with the didn't they used to give away apple tv free with whatever your new iphone or whatever Maybe for a while look at that. I'm on um android, but we could find out maybe maybe um, you know what? My father-in-law has uh an iphone. I wonder if he gets it. I'll have to ask. Yeah, check it just Yes, I don't know if they still do it, but they used to do that for sure Um, ryan if you're watching still Let me know if it's okay to show this to everybody I'm I'm I'm thinking you're gonna say yes, but I don't want to show it without you without your permission Because I know you said like look it. This isn't my house, but I don't I don't want to just blast it out there for everybody to see anyways. Um, this is my house Yeah, yeah, so that was c and then you know, we he's obviously brought up, uh, you know stargate We've talked about that. You know in the past but I get always because I loved I mean this Everyone says are you okay talking about stargate? I'm like, wait. Why not? Why wouldn't I when the reason I'm here is because of stargate? I wouldn't have met anyone I wouldn't have met anyone on like I mean, it's one of the one of my biggest You know issues with the way twitter is just such a dumpster fire right now Is that is that I don't want it to go away because it's such it's been such wonderful access to me Like I could go like I like 3d printing. What should I do? And then all of a sudden you got all these Wonderful fellow nerds going like we're into that, you know, there's always someone There's always the great thing about stargate is it meant that there was always a nerd who knew a nerd There was always someone I could find to find out about stuff I was interested in and I'm interested in everything so It's like it it's kind of like, um, it's like the seagulls, you know, the mind mind mind Yeah, yeah, yeah, and there's little groups of each different Yeah, you throw like who has this stl or or where can I find this and it's like ding ding ding ding ding Yeah, um the hardest thing I find is everyone wants to do things for me They're like, oh, let me send you a print. I was like, no, no, no, you understand Like I want to do the printing like I want to do I want to do the work Like but everyone's like, no, no, no, like it's and it's lovely Like they just want to they want to help but they're enthusiastic about it But I'm always like no, no, like I'm looking at the mastodon right now I'd like to set up my own mastodon server. I know what's I'm going to do it for me I want to the whole point is for me to geek out and try this stuff You want to learn and and we'll see I'm not on the fence on that one, right? Yeah, you just want to do it might be a lot of work. Yeah, here we go. Let's see This is ryan offset maker lab. Um, by the way, awesome death racers at earth Um, but here you go. Let's let's see Oh, that's pretty. Yes Oh man, I want that I want to run and dive through things when that camera panned to the side Yeah, I saw a proton pack. I saw what was that this looked like something with a Let's see We got a we got a pan now. We're now we're analyzing. Um, it looks like a with a refrigerator painted like a p51 Yeah, yeah, and then the proton pack over here. I see the proton pack. Yeah Oh, I don't see death racer though. I am a little bit disappointed. No, I'm just joking. He um, he We met at earth and uh, I battled I battled ryan and he had a gorgeous death racer at earth Uh, I don't know if you saw death racers. They're all 3d printed. Um, actually I don't know. Well, mine's behind me, but um, it's uh, essentially an all 3d printed tank track driven Battle bot kind of but you try to knock the head off so that the head is the on off switch and you have Uh for for lack of better words um, basically uh I don't know a mace or something swinging around on the back and and the idea is to hit the other guy in the head It shuts the car off and and you keep going forward and um, so it's like it's like rock'em sock'em robots only for for Kinda rock'em sock meets battle bots meets tanks. Didn't that didn't you have to knock the head off? Yep, or at least in its poke off and it's postpacolithic and everybody's blind and it was It's very difficult the remote control vehicle very difficult when you're They they are very hard to drive. Anyway, um because of the nature of 3d printing But is it first person are you looking at are you looking at that would be awesome? I know some people have done it. I think um, what do they call it fpov? Dave Dave did I think but um, no, they're I just throw up on anyone. Yeah, I they're not they're not fpv We all stood up like in the docket the college at at urfin Battled to the death, you know in the docks and it was a lot But that's like how much fun is that like that's did you ever used to watch battle bots on? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that was like I remember that we had Sorry, we had uh mitzvaroni on and he built uh, he built sub zero He was on the zero. Oh, wow. Yeah, he's a friend of the show There can't have been a lot of 3d printing involved in that though. Was there No, it was mostly uh metal and I actually went down the same At one point he showed me the shop that he built it in and did the powder coating and everything and it's super cool It is I'd love to do some metal stuff. I have to see stuff I got to figure out I got to figure out. Yes. Yes. I have a cnc and I Not sure what you're gonna do more than once I haven't seen you go for uh, I have the onefinity Machinist is what I got because I only had a small amount of area But oh, I got a little prover one of those little uh, nice. What do they call they can't what they're called, but I uh I can't with any of my company now. They were very cool. They actually sent it to me. I should do with any Oh It's okay. Yeah, I I think the same thing onefinity was awesome. They uh, they sent me over the the machinist, which is That was a little same smart. There you go. Yeah Which are just they're The little cheap little things, but they're freaking great and I also have the then I got the open built Which is kind of huge The open bill. Yeah I built it in the garage. It was very nice with yeah We had a tech bandit donor donate it And well that that's perfect segue because you know last time we here we talked a little bit about tech bandits I definitely want to talk about that. Um What so anybody that doesn't know what tech bandits in let's let's start with that If you don't know what it is, how would you describe tech bandits? It's it's basically It's basically a science technology engineering arts math club for for kids. Um, and My it it's it's just trying to inspire the next generation of brilliant minds as I put it. Um, I just I was a high school dropout But I I just loved learning. I always loved learning But I never saw any connection between learning and what I was doing in school I just never saw the connection like it was that means, you know, it's my own stupidity But it's also I think the way the curriculum was was based in some, you know, a couple of bad teachers and that kind of stuff You know, like I went into school so curious about stuff so excited to learn about I was all into electronics and computers and well, there were no computers back then But I mean, you know the early computer stuff Um, you know and tearing stuff up I used to take old TVs apart and build trainsets and I loved all that stuff And then I got to school and I was like, okay, great. I like trying doing electronics in school and it's like Oh god You know what I mean like And then I was done and then as soon as people realized that acting was gonna and I realized that acting was probably where I Was gonna go. I just got thrown into the art stream, right? So all of a sudden it's like, ah, Hewlett, he doesn't need all that complicated stuff. He's gonna be pretty Um, you know, so so and that's and my that was sort of part of my frustration as well As I felt like no, there's just just because I was doing The acting stuff didn't mean I I didn't want to learn I wouldn't have wanted to learn other stuff and so I was very lucky and that I've always been very sort of motivated to You know, teach my own teach myself stuff Um, and I and I just saw a lot of kids are the same thing where they're going in at like, you know age two to Two to six or whatever they're like, whoo, what are we learning and then as soon as you hit like grade four It's like learning's boring and you're like, oh, we lost them So I just wanted to do something and I started By bringing in I would find things that people thrown out like old 3d printers or old pcs and stuff And I just brought them into the local school and had the kids pull them apart Um, so we did like a breaker space And it was it was just amazing because the kids at first they just want to break everything You're like, like can I use a hammer? I'm like, no, please don't use a hammer like I don't think I All right, fine. Use a hammer or whatever put the goggles on But you know, so they would break stuff and then they were like, what's this? What's this? What's this and then that was how I got started, right? You'd pull stuff apart never got it back together again Who cares about putting it back together again, but you learned all the parts that you know Oh, that's a capacitor. That's a resistor. That's look at that motor What could we use that motor for what could we use that motor for that? They suddenly go off they want to do this they want to do that So they start bringing in some robot stuff Um, and they were you know fast about that then you go well, you got to program those robots So you start doing a little programming like it's just like a it's just like a conniving way to get kids to learn stuff but it was so I don't know It was like one of the few things that I found in my life that I've enjoyed as much as being on set You know what I mean? Like I feel like I come on set. I feel alive I feel like this is what I'm supposed to be and I've never found that anywhere else until I'm in this class Rounded by like printers that have just been destroyed by kids and they're all running around screaming and it's all chaos And I was like this is the best You know because they're just excited and they're learning stuff and it's like they'd say like how does this work? I go, I don't know. Let's go find out. Let me go and we google it You know and like it was just it was just so much fun So, you know a pandemic hit we started doing it online I started trying to do it as a as a closed chat I tried to do it as like a zoom call And it was a freaking disaster like just because you know, it was like you could hear them like click click click in the background And like I'm like, oh god, they're all gaming And so I was gonna just let it go and my son said why don't you stream it? And I was like stream it what but they're kids you can't see it So I asked the parents parents were like, I don't know what streaming means great. Sure Let him let him do it so I just started streaming it live the kids would be on audio And they set us up with like the kids set up a discord channel because apparently then who No one use old only old people use other forms of communication discord is what all the kids wanted to use so Set up a discord server and we just started doing it that way and it's just been amazing It's sometimes it's one kid. Sometimes there's no kids You know, it's just us talking about tech and stuff and but it is amazing because the kids will Sometimes they'll just lurk in the background and not say a word and you can hear them gaming and all that kind of stuff And I gave up on on stopping that because what happens is when you hit on something They are interested in the gaming stops and they go hey, what was that? What is what's that? What are you doing there? And all of a sudden you can see the things that they're interested in So there's no point in trying to you can't force anyone to learn anything But if the stuff that if you could just put stuff in front of them that will inspire them They've got access to they want to learn anything about anything They've got an entire internet out there Our jobs should not be trying to teach them anything Our job should just be trying to make it interesting enough for them that they want to go and find out about it Because that's the that's true learning right when they're doing it on their own you can't force that so Yeah, he hit him with just enough to say what what is that and then they have to go, you know, they go look Um, I think that's awesome and having a two and a half year old. It is crazy how much he's Just absorbing and picking up and learning we got like I think I was talking about and it'll all get thrown back at you Just yeah, right before the show we were talking about we got a marble run You know where you put all the pieces together and let marbles go and He knows how to put them together. He knows how to stack them and it might fall over but whatever And yeah, yeah, he's he's like so good about blocks marbles and puzzles And it's so funny because he'll sit there and he'll be like, okay Let's put four marbles in hit the little thing let them go down All right dad put put more in so I can keep them go. It's just like crazy to watch him But that's learning how he's expanding. Yeah, and that's it I I don't understand why how could we screw that up? How is it that we send them to school and we screw that up? Like I They're all like, oh learning's boring. I was like, what are you nuts? Like I I know school's boring I get that I hated I hated every second of school I loved my friends in fact vincenzo who directed the the rats the the graveyard rats thing We were just talking about that's my high school friend We started we were making films together when we were 15 years old Wow, that was that was our marble run. We would make that's crazy. You know what I mean? That's awesome. Yeah, so Uh, I mean to me that was and I remember even saying back then like when I was like 15 going like I want to when I'm When I'm when I'm very when I'm jason memoa I uh I'm gonna I'm gonna go back and I'm gonna teach kids to I'm gonna get kids in the film at 15 years old Because that saved me like it saved me. I'd be living in my dad's basement with like a Camaro and a then you know and and and and a subscription to some cannabis company. I like This gave me something this inspired me into action and I and I've loved every second of it Well, and it's awesome when you find that, you know, I mean and it's different for everybody. It's it could be interesting Yeah, oh, there you go. I was gonna say it could be 3d printing. It could be acting. It could be prop making it could be A wardrobe you putting together I I know, you know people that put together their own wardrobe and outputs for reenacting and all sorts of stuff and it's like It's all the cosplay stuff. So amazing. Oh my god. I am blown away by that It's like we're saying I like I think the the the stuff they're making is better than what I'm seeing on sat half Well, and I some like the iron man suits and I mean really anything don't work Yeah, right my god people actually put the time into you know trying to figure it out and then, you know What what can I do a little extra? What can I make it step it up a little right? Um, and it doesn't matter how you come into this stuff or what angle you come into it You're still you're still using, you know, you're still you're still using scientific process You're still iterating. You're still learning how to fail. I mean, that's the biggest thing that I worry about is that is that is that Kids aren't used to failing. It's like oh, they're they're there It's like but learning is uncomfortable like learning supposed to be uncomfortable if learning is not uncomfortable. You're not learning. Shit Like it doesn't mean like if it works the first go you haven't learned anything you just followed instructions You know what I mean? So oh I'm all gravitated from a high school. My kids go to now. Nice. Oh, wow There you go. He graduated more than I did because I didn't even yeah Like I was well and and you were just saying you're not you're not learning Unless you fail. I mean like you can't like you said he learning is or failing is part of Everything I think it's like in a century. What's how about skills in the future? It's like the essential skill for the future is learning how to deal with failure drink this water down the front of Hey, you doing the bubble and learn that you don't yeah. Yep. Got the bubble. He's going to start an ad This stuff. I'm addicted to this. You're so good. I love the the lime is one of my favorites Oh, see I can't do lime. I don't I'm not a big lime fan It's like a not sweet seven up or something to me, you know, I like the mango ones too there mango is really good The orange one's good. Well, here we go on the grapefruit. It's nice. There you go. Yeah, there you go Um, but what I'm saying is like if you didn't dump this down the front of you And it could be any drink when you're young right you dumped it down the whole front of you realize Don't do that. Yeah, you just learned don't do that because you failed Shake it up Open it up, you know what I mean? Like I mean, then you just learn how to direct it better at your friends, but it's it's Yeah, I just think there's so many different ways into learning and I I just I worry I worried that the curriculum isn't there for people and You know, I I I worry that they don't see you know They go home and play with their their dad's 3d printer and don't realize that that's Just as important as the stuff that that they're learning at at school And in fact, we don't even know what they're gonna need. Yeah, 3d printer or or the coding the little tabletop robot Or putting together our 3d printed rc anything like you know what I mean? All that stuff is is like fine fine tuning your skills and uh, we do have some hot makes I want to get to those Yes. Yeah, go go go. Yeah, but we're we're talking about teachers And uh, what's funny is we just had one join us and I want to bring abby and she's actually a teacher But she has an update on a project. That's why we have her with us abby. How are you? Hi Not sure how we feel about all the like anti school comments Not anti school. They're great teachers. I just yeah, yeah Yeah, well, I do I do my best to keep it fun and interesting and applied And you're here Well, and abby's is 3d printing a lot in her in her school in her classes And like she's done some Since hot makes started we've been showing different models that I have don't even understand because I don't comprehend math got good, but But uh, or grab what seems like you're talking about this one. Yes. Oh fantastic Oh, that's beautiful. What what is it? I gotta you since you're here you can explain it No, this is this surface. Um, the The point of this particular surface and I wanted to Graph the contours so that the students could see and understand like the idea that we're looking at these lines and equals z but then when we Consider it from a view up above then the contours We can find the maxes and minns and where the saddle points are and how the lines actually get closer together when the Edges are steeper And yeah, so this is this is a fun one I I did this one I think during distance learning because I wanted some more examples to be able to show the students Because I couldn't really get my hands, you know in the same space as them So but this one was a lot of fun and I've got some other examples Like it as well, but yeah, the 3d printing really gives the students a chance to So when I at first started teaching it was like, how do I get the students to see it? And I use Mathematica a lot in my classes and I use that to help make stuff like this And so that makes a big difference in letting them Visualize what's going on, but now they can actually get their hands on these things and like what does a saddle point feel like? what's going on with that and So I've got a lot of these kinds of surfaces just floating around in my classroom. It was super fun That's that's also more that's more Inclusionary as well, right because the fact you can get in there and feel this stuff Is that some people are just they work better that way don't they I am 100% I would rather sit down not knowing how to do anything but touch it and learn Then then just sit back and watch somebody do it because I'm like Well, I came maybe next time. I see it. I might have an idea But I learned so much better hands on yeah Well, even the thing is I can't take the time to like plot every single surface in every homework problem But by having a few Representative that even though we might be working with a different equation We can come back to something like this and talk about like we'll remember these things or those issues or I have ones where the surface is intersect And we can build with that as well. What grade are you dealing with? I teach high school Yeah, yeah, and is that all the way through high school like the whole Yeah, most most of my career lately has been juniors and seniors and I teach classes for the students who finished ap calculus But this year I have a class of ninth graders and we're doing more like algebra and geometry kinds of stuff. So it's It's interesting seeing where the stuff that I'm used to teaching It's like now we're like at these beginning stages and I can see how Little bits and pieces that we do now are going to develop further down the road. So it's Fun, it's so hard to explain to the kids though that that it that it's going somewhere That's always my frustration is it's like I I feel like I always try to jump ahead To the to the to the fun stuff and then figure that once they are inspired that far ahead They can sort of come back and get the basics to bear Yeah, a big part of what I when I teach is I talk a lot about okay what we've learned and then where it's going and And what we might be doing in the next coming lessons, but with this ninth grade class It's a new class for me. So I I don't really know much about what's happening next month But I could tell them what's happening in two or three years Right, right But they pick up on it if you love this stuff they pick up on that like that's honestly I feel like that's like that's a huge chunk of of of learning for me was like I've seen my kid turn around on subjects So he's like this is the most boring thing ever And then all of a sudden it's like I freaking love science like he went into science. He hated it I tried everything, you know being the nerd that I am But he doesn't want to hear it from dad, you know, but good teacher and all of a sudden he's like Hey, do you know that cells do this and I'm like, there we go You know, it just takes but at the same time you can get a he's had a couple of bad math teachers I we called them we started calling the the last guy the issue the last issue we had we called him a math hole um because uh Because he was very very difficult to work with both a parent a parent and a kid and um, uh, that was our little secret word You know But you went from loving math Like went from loving math to hating it within like literally three months, you know But it's like we got we we got an astrophysicist to talk to him and uh, so they do stuff Yeah, it's it's uh, but but I think that's I mean it's so it's so cool to see you enjoying the uh You know the process of printing this stuff out and things because it does make such a difference So one of the ways that I brought 3d printing into my classroom so far this fall is we have our what we call yellow ribbon week which is about promoting positive mental health and suicide prevention and um due to kind of a series of events and activity suggestions Um rather than doing the suggested activity of yellow post-its on students desks I decided to do yellow 3d prints and I made all of these let's go this way um, I made a whole bunch of key chains and printed them and distributed them to my students and I got 10 different words um That my family picked out and they helped loop all the key chains together And then I decided that it needed to be shared more broadly than just my own classroom And I posted the models on cults 3d and now printables and we're encouraging folks to 3d print the key chains and for My family decided that we would want to make a contribution to the american foundation for suicide prevention And on top of that for every post up to a hundred people We would contribute an additional two dollars and then printed solid joel telling uh, ldo motors and alien 3d got on board and they said that they would each also match two dollars And uh, even raise the challenge up to 500 people Oh, wow. I love it. Um, right now we're about I think the latest is my husband's keeping the official count But I think we're at about 70 71 posts So I think we're in good shape by the end of december. We really want to get to our initial goal of 100 And uh, see how that all comes together. So today I put together this webpage that jim is sharing here. It's um My webpage, which is mostly stuff for my school, but it's abby math dot com slash yellow ribbon And this has all the information in one spot. Um 3d with us published a on article that I wrote when the project kicked off and um max at 3d with us has done a nice job of keeping the article updated as we've had new contributors sign on Or I then posted on principles and uh pooch, of course our good friend on the show Um, he jumped in and helped get a bunch of pre-sliced gcode ready to help make it easier for people Um, and that was a big help to me because I just didn't have the time or the Profiles for some of the printers. He thought would be good to put out there for folks So that's another easy way to get it and then Volcazza is a brand new website based in norway That um had reached out to me a couple months ago about being one of their initial designers And Volcazza's site is a place where designers can post models for sale that other third party people will 3d print So like even though the website's in norway, let's say somebody in san diego wants One of my well, let's say somebody in new york wants one of my vases and i'm in san diego So, um, but i'm not set up for 3d printing for people and shipping and all of that But there's somebody with a 3d printer in new york that's part of the volcazza system So they take the job and then do the printing and in theory ship it locally to the customer So volcazza has posted the keychains um for sale as a set of 10 A kind of a single color version Of them for anybody who doesn't have a 3d printer and would like to get them And they're selling them at at basically the cost of shipping. So they They still look really good and uh folks can So you can order a set of 10 and get a set of 10 and distribute them or share them with their family and those will count toward our master list of folks participating Toward donations as well. That's fantastic. That's awesome. Well, we definitely Appreciate that update. We'll have to do this again in a couple weeks and see where we're at. Don't forget check out abby's website abby mat.com forward slash yellow ribbon. I posted it in the chat a little bit ago and I think I I'm sorry. I maybe gear you did and then also I posted you have to tag Um what hashtag yellow ribbon 3d print if yeah, it's important. Yeah, if you to get counted We have to see it Does it have to be in yellow? Oh, oh, I need to put that on the web page. Thank you I threw this together before the show. Yes, it does not have to be in yellow That was a big question a lot of people. I don't have any yellow film it That's fine people have been posting in purple and orange and black and gray and green and blue or 3d gloop did a great one to match their own company colors Um, so it's um, whatever I say, whatever colors bring you joy and the colors that speak to you Um Oh, yay. Okay. I see peslas. Yeah. Oh, that's right part and give for a friend's daughter to share key chains at school Yeah, um, there was an I've seen we've seen lots of posts from people sharing Um the there was one post in particular. There's been several that have particularly touched me one Was somebody at a school? I think a middle school and they had a pile of key chains And they did them with different colors on the back and then a yellow on the top and then they Said they were distributing them to all their counselors. They had pictures of the students putting the key chains on Um, several people have reached out through twitter and commented on how much the project has meant to them Um because of issues that they've dealt with personally with mental health or folks that they know who have either died of suicide or have attempted and um And that they feel that that's you know, been uplifting for them and a chance to Spread the word and and remind people that there are folks out there willing to listen and there's resources like 988 um and Uh places to go to get the support if you or someone that you know, um, is in need That's awesome. Well, this is an awesome project. I I know we brought it on a couple weeks ago And I love the update. We got to get more than 70 out there though. I know we can do that. Oh, yes Jim, I don't think we have gyms yet. We don't I need to get maybe I'll do that right after the show Yeah, I better fire up my printer. Yeah, it only takes it takes like it depending on your printer It's probably less than 20 minutes to do one. That's all it takes is one to post and share and you can post on twitter on instagram or if you prefer to post a make on Uh cults 3d or principles people have been posting makes Um or if you're just not a person to want to put out your work there publicly Um, I guess you can track me down through abbymath.com and you can email me and just let me know or send me a photo abby at abbymath.com and we'll give it a count too. That's fantastic. That's awesome. Thank you so much for the update and Yeah, if you find abby, she does some awesome models too. So you can check out her uh, uh, abby math on twitter I believe yeah, I I was do you want to see a sneak peek of what I'm working on right now Yeah, let's do it. I know we're running way behind. So I apologize. Oh, yes. Okay very quick It's I'm a project with my daughter and we're making something for the hallway And it's kind of gigantic the idea Is that it is a coaster So we modeled it based off of like a coaster that I have in here And then we're printing we're working on where these actually have the the feathers are going to have little holes And then these are pegs. So then you can print it all single extrusion and then Fit it in and make whatever color turkey feathers you want So my daughter's running back and forth to the garage printing different colors as we get organized for our posts So hopefully that'll be out in the next couple days What are you using to design it? What do you have that using ticker cad and stuff? Uh, that's fusion 360 Fusion 360, right? Yeah, all right. Nice. Well, we gotta get onto the hot make so I'll sign off for now Everybody print and post. Let's see those keychains. Thanks Yes, thank you. Thank you so much for being here. That's fantastic. Yes See you later. I'd be that's great. I love it. All right. Well, I guess I know what I'm printing next Yes, the project is so good too. And um when we had her on a couple weeks ago Nick from polymaker was on and he donated a bunch of filament I think we did seven spools or something like that. Um, which was really cool to see but um Yeah, I think do you have a few more minutes? Can we hit some hot? All right, uh, hopefully everybody out there is good too. We're gonna rock and roll ladies gentlemen. Let's do some hot makes I definitely hit the wrong button and I went to You're in twitter hell. There we go. No, I was clicking around um, the first one It comes to us from ron the canadian maker project ron Um, today, I was working on a new back bracket for the prusa mini to hold a brick off the side Uh of the racks he so he works at a firm. They have a bunch of prusa minis at prusas. Um, So far, this is his favorite. So he's modeling a bracket to hold the the power brick Uh, I was like, why does he have a brick? Like what's he doing with the brick? Yeah, he just likes bricks. There you go. Pet brick or something? Yeah, yeah, we put googly eyes on it. That makes more sense. Okay. Yeah, that makes way more sense to me. Yeah I love a brick would have been stupid It would have been awesome. I I think we might have to have some pet brick. You remember pet rocks. Yeah. Yeah We'll catch on. Yeah. Um, it's a genius idea. Uh, that's great But yeah, I think I like this a lot. I have a mini myself and the brick is just kind of There it's like a computer brick, you know, it laying out or or behind a desk or something. So nice work Ron I like the idea and uh, if you want to check it out. I think he Um, put it up there or some closer look so it's from the side here And there you go. Oh, that's great. So it's a nice a nice, uh, little addition to hold your your brick And this looks like he uses Those like heavy duty utility racks, so it probably hangs right over the back Hmm. Um, nice work Ron. Well done Ron. Well done. Um, Caleb, uh, he says This one was posted in the 3d printing ghost busters props facebook group Chad doesn't use twitter, but he wanted to tag it anyway. Um, the stay buffed Was printed on an ender three 150 percent there you go Look at the stay buffed. I love it. That's great I don't This you know, um I don't know. I wonder if he's still with us. This could definitely go with his death racer Um, ryan if you're you guys are still on We need to generally don't see that kind of behavior in a major appliance Dogs and cats living together, uh, that's uh, That's great. I like the way that he's like got the whole theme going like with the ghost busters on his actual Printer as well. Yeah, it's so good. It's so good. He's got there's a tiny, uh, there's a tiny stay buffed on the extruder and everything too Oh, what is there? There is And there's a little stay buff on the extruder. No, I missed that Hang on. I'm gonna go back and grab that link and go find it. Uh, Yeah, that's this one the old guy. It's my eyes my eyes. I can't see All right, let's go see this. Oh, I see him. Oh my god. Yeah. Yeah, there he is I didn't even I uh, I'm not surprised we didn't see that. That's pretty small, but that's cute. That's what she said. Um, that was uh We were talking to him over facebook chat and he like just really liked stay puff stuff And he's stay puffed like all of his printers and stuff That's great. I saw there was a great one that someone had done a Someone had done like one of the pokemon characters like a bulbasaurus or something And it created the entire thing around the the uh, I think it was the mini Ooh. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I did see that. Um, they they made their mini into a full model, right? Yeah It's like a little it's like a whole pokemon thing. It was beautiful I need this to go with the ecto 6. Yes. Yes, you do. All right. What do we got next? Um, This is let's see Uh, chicks waiting on mom to pop off the glass So I was like, what are they talking about at first and I had to scroll down here There's some mini one little guys here And it looks like a full model Holy crap Um, and that is beautiful I love the coloring of that It is is crazy. It's how it printed like that Yeah, it prints flat and then I believe it pops up. Let's see That's how it prints. It looks like a dead bird, right? Like it looks like in that post they linked to the they put an amaranth link in that post to the Filament that they used and based on the product photos Yeah, it looks like it just printed like that like that's just a color. That is. Oh, I love I love those those gradation Filaments, it's just uh Amal amal in PLA. I don't know what that is, but um, the chicks that were 70 size and mom was 200 So that's pretty dang awesome. I I love I Love the color. You're right. And I like that. They did the different colors here for the chicks Um, but that printed self. Uh, I might have to Yeah, I don't like you said it. It kind of looks like the bird smashed your hop. Yeah, it's like that's what they hit the window Turkey's done. Yeah, that's it. That's it. It is. It's like what do they call it? They call it like the flattened chicken It's it's a it's a flattened chicken print. That's great. Yeah, I love it. All right. What else do we got here? printed visions 3d Uh, there you go. There's Gotta love that. This is uh, I believe Go print some gingers and tag me of the print. So this was steven lightspeeds one of their the models and I love the color. It's it's funny. The eyebrows on there and the little bow Um last last week we talked about uh, steven He made a tripod's garage version with with a uh leg that had been broken off because tripod only has one leg Um, so there's a tripod's garage version of the the gingerbread guy I love it People like focus on these very specific like they're like I do gingerbread I do flattened birds Everyone has their own little they go through their their their stages of only printing I was only printing those flexi things for a while there, you know, yeah What was that gearie? I was gonna say we need a gingerbread like gearie A gingerbread gearie. Oh, yeah with a gear head. Yeah. Yeah There you go. That that was the the challenge has been dropped. I'm sure by the end of the show We'll have a gingerbread gear. That's how fast the community works I love it. I love it. All right, what do we got next? Oh, this is this is awesome. Um This is a a summer stem project with my daughter. Uh, she grew out of her old You can't get my kid out of bed. They're making freaking violins All right, um, it's fully acoustic protopastas nebula, which is a phenomenal color by Yeah, um for the body and their recycled carbon fiber for the neck and head I'm more active on tick tock, but Check this out. Let's see Oh Thing is gorgeous. That is beautiful So nice. You did that with your daughter. I I love the nebula color Like the worst parent ever. Um, that is gorgeous Yeah, there's something about that that I just I I think this is just something that's so Specific to 3d printing that type of that that type of uh, of a color Yeah, yeah, it's just it's just gorgeous I the nebula the protopasta nebula. I um printed a few things in post it there. It's so nice Um And they have different I guess they have different variations of of colors or is it there you go? Yeah, definitely different colors and stuff nebula just happens to be this what you don't see here I wish I had it close to me. I grab it. There's like like a sparkle and it's stuff you don't see in this picture But um, the color is just it's Just in real life. Um, again, I wish I had something near me because I could show it in the camera, but it's so it just pops Um, what it's what's interesting that I see here Is that has to be pretty thin to be able to see through it like that you see here's the next thing through it I think so I think this is the I mean, there's a rod in there. I believe for for being stiffer Um, yeah, wow that is there's I think there's some uh translucency going on here. I mean It has to be hollow right to play I suppose It's got to be fairly thin. I'm guessing. Yeah, that's a yeah interesting Um, my daughter and I for her school project. We made a cigar box guitar that that sounds like A lot of fun actually jack in the shops like can't get my son to do anything either. Yeah Had to be done in vase mode that that would be super Had to be a thick vase Right that would have to be a thick vase mode to be able to hold up to playing it. I mean you think in I don't know But uh super what it sounds like just do they play it on her tick tock? There you go Um, there you go. There you go. There's there's a better kind of Representation of the color you can kind of see it. Oh, look at that I love the way they've got the little honeycomb for support That's why that's probably why it could be so transparent True and you can kind of see the sparkle the glitter in this one. Yeah a little bit, but so It was so cool. I love the idea and uh jason nice work on that How low did that take the print? I'd love to know how long that took right That's gotta be a while. Did they say let's see. Nope. I'm trying to think how big oh here we go um I lied. This is just someone responding to abby's um post.

No, I'm like We were talking to her and we're like pop in around quarter till We'll have you doing a quick update and stuff and then that just happens to be where that part of the show was and No, but uh, you know, I think I think There's there's really good teachers. There's okay teachers and then there's bad teachers, right? And uh, I think she's she's probably one of the really good teachers and Um, just from all the cool stuff she posts and shows and I was able to see and I gotta say Teaching has got to be one of the hardest jobs. You could probably ever do Well, I'm trying to deal with the kids Yeah, I mean, it's like and also you're teaching other people's kids too. It's even worse Um, but but it's also, you know, they're working around curriculums. They're working around bureaucracy They're working around all sorts of stuff which makes it which makes it so much more difficult So I realize I don't I mean I don't want to come down like I don't like teachers. I love teachers I love teachers You know, I mean and the good teachers are the ones that you know, you remember that you you know, you You know because you've learned something and you love something because of them But uh, but I just I just worry that it's so random and in in how we you know, Hey, you could get a good teacher. You could get a bad teacher It's like it shouldn't be like that they should all be good teachers and they should be paid through the freaking nose for it You know, I mean, I love it and you're absolutely correct.
