Morning, everyone. It is now 5.46 a.m. Today is January to 30th, 2026. And we're on Friday. The last day of the World Week. This month is done. It's it. It's in the books. It's just about pretty awesome.
We have another today. Supposed to even get colder. We've had the coldest stretch in history, not in history, but.
in a long time here in Rhode Island.
The amount of cold weather we've had and snow were a little bit above it, above what we're usually all.
But last few winters, we didn't have any snow at all.
So this is way above, actually.
We'll get a little bit of snow Sunday.
Anyhow, that storm goes, but haven't looked at it.
So yesterday we did a little, I did one video.
We did Xbox 1 1540.
I needed a motherboard.
So we did that, tested, and pulled it.
and then we did
2 Xbox
360
S 1439s
they were already tested
they both
pulled
one was a Corona
one was Trinity
same buyer
and then I had a lot of
the orders
so that was
pretty much the only thing I did
playing around with some
ES5 Pro stuff
some games
I picked four games
that are a little bit different
than the big main ones
so for four games
I purchased what's the price
If I would have bought two of the
Higher Price game
So we're gonna go through those
I haven't fired up
I'm gonna make a video
And we'll do them
We'll do a check of each one of those
Today or tomorrow
I was gonna do it yesterday
But I never got that time to get back to it
I did
I put Days Gone
I have the remaster I never played it
So I never finished the original
So days gone
So I got that now on
and until dawn
the remastered their remake or whatever
so for the PS5 so we'll play those
two as well down the road
all right so let's see what's going on this morning
so we'll see what's going on this weekend
oh there's a bunch of all I say my box
my Atari box main feed on
MSN is pretty awesome
so I've got my sales going on
I'm probably going to keep me going
we're going to see if I decided to do
actually I think there is 31 days in this
Let's see what else we got going on in the news.
That's the middle of a poll this weekend.
Patriots play next weekend.
So you get some rest and do what they got to do.
Doom 3 announcement.
Ooh, big Doom fan.
He wanted to be awesome.
It's like Star Wars, but in the dirt.
But better.
More the story instead of the silly.
Star Wars are too much of that silly comedy thrown in there.
Hopefully the next.
series I think the first one's called the last stock fighter I think it's called
hopefully it's more like a serious one that's silly stuff we'll see I never watch any of the
streaming style work stuff oh this guy so n64 bottom set of screws
me let's set a message sorry sorry sorry as a one-man shop sorry as a one I get off
track very I have not that's all
sent that guy a message and i haven't forgot about it all right so one let's see which is the
n64 bottom six screws so it's been in order and i'd see pretty cool uh one thousand
three hundred twenty nine followers still growing here on parchment and nothing that i'm doing to
make it do that just as on its own there's so many things are you not need to take down
uh just not worried about it it's gonna happen though something's gonna sell
I'm like, oh, I don't have that anymore.
I gotta get some time, but I got other things going on at the same time.
So I'd get everything.
But that's where we're at Poshmarker.
Still gone a little bit.
Let me look at Girl coming out.
Interesting.
So where we had now?
Oh, we're at RSS speed.
Yeah, today and tomorrow's was really like one of the coldest days of the year.
Even cold as it's already been.
My goodness, I've got, we've got heat.
Some places don't have any power stone down south.
I don't take up how old yet down there.
I ran out and got my generator, even though I didn't need it, but I'd rather be safe and sorry.
All right.
So I had two downloads, 659 in the last 30 days, 2,259 podcasts of downloads I've done.
I mean, yeah, it's home.
It's my message in a bottle over the internet ocean, wherever it may go.
Very cool to see who comes around.
It's always changing.
Miami has says five downloads.
Rock Hill, United States is four, Bedford, the United Kingdom, so this is only chosen in the last seven days.
Three, Elgin, two, and Minneapolis, two.
So I don't know who downloaded what since last night.
Only it just says two, but it doesn't specify who the two are.
Joe, which did, but it doesn't.
And of course, I'd like to share the big bucks made here.
We're at 53 cents now.
So I made a one penny.
we don't make pennies here in the United States anymore, but I do.
And still an estimated balance.
At some point, maybe every once a month,
it switches over to available balance,
and we'll see how much it drops.
Last time it was 45 cents, went down to 15 months.
My lifetime made here as a podcaster
since July when it got monetized is 15 cents.
And, of course, we will segue with YouTube right now
because it's...
We're not getting there either.
And we officially stopped everything.
Whatever I was doing for promotions during the time.
We're at 100,000, 2,921.
So we're falling still and down below the 103,000,
100,000, 300,000.
My view hours are tanking.
It still says 1.1 million views,
but that's the last 28 days.
No more promotion.
So watch hours.
six point nine estimate revenues always around 20 dollars and it really changes so
I'm making some pennies here I will assume that this really thanks so on the only
top three videos one is his one K but it's a quick three minute so now we're down to
only the shorts having more than say 30 views like the video I just did yesterday
had use 22 views so that's
But all of those things, I only really have 22 people.
And that's average, 22.
The bird bath was 21.
There was some hot water.
14 for my last podcast, 31 for the view for the N64 dreaded O4 motherboards, 31 views.
So that is about the average.
And that's the way I'll say.
I'm going to put all my eggs into my eBay.
We'll go there in a second.
see if we have any new subscribers
we lose some but then once in a while I
gain a one or two
you know we got a couple
you know guys so these are people that would
actually really want to
subscribe as opposed to when I was
promoting subscribers it was just
giving me numbers I think they were just
all fake anyway that's why they're all
disappearing
so we learned a lot about promoting
that was a big upfront investment
that did not pay off
at all
so maybe in a
few years I'll regroup that all that I lost although we do with my overnight night
sites I made a face mask out of Patriots scarf thing so last night I had a Patriots
scarf out of so we'll keep doing some sort of a mix of new face masks and I got
another one with a smile with the eyes on it and then I have a football for the Patriots
so we'll do those for I go do that one next because of the Super Bowl is next weekend
we'll keep on.
So I'm here 100.
I kept on for how many hours I leave up last night?
I wake up in the middle of night.
I'm like, ah, that's enough.
And I shut it off.
I was only over three hours last night.
I didn't move on that.
Oh, no, that's not it.
Five hours, six, about six hours last night.
So I pass out, I go to sleep.
And sometime in the middle of night, I wake up,
and I'm like, I want to go to darkness.
Because I also, at the same time,
I have a speakers on my head.
One of those speaker,
things you put over your head so you can sleep sleep things so I got that and the face mask
in my head so I go all those contraptions going on when I'm trying to sleep but I guess as I said
before it's my rebel it's my I'm rebelling anywhere anywhere at YouTube so now we just run my face
sleeping for some hours and then I get up and I'm like yeah I did one night I ran an
whole night for 12 hours but normally seven hours oh yeah one night we did we did 11 hours
night but usually I wake up I had to go to the bathroom and stuff so that I was like
you know what let's just shut everything down I'm not gonna once I get up I just shut
it off so pretty fun just something different just draw up there I get I had six
thumbs up I had 20 thumbs up the other yesterday or the day before so obviously
it's it's untapped potential it really is and it's just something different and it
doesn't matter if I did it and didn't do it because my YouTube is
tanking no matter what so I was trying to have fun somewhere else
all right so speaking of that let's see where we go
eBay yesterday about a shipping problem oh my guy went on and I'm going to get a bad
feedback out of this deal but I don't know if I already have a bad
feedback this guy just kept going on he said it's it's it's lost open a
open a claim it's not lost it's right in the shipping I went back and forth with
this guy
I went on a rant about it wasn't happy top eBay eBay amiga 1,000 exact expansion
black plastic name guy uh mega 1000 exact diesel output back trim as described ship
quickly good value wingman oh those of those controllers item as described just the
right thing but we have some I think I have some looming negative and neutral feedback
just because my lies about shipping there's nothing I can do it once it ships I have no
control there's no way there's no way for me to find out what's going on with it
it's on a truck somewhere and we just had a blizzard in the middle of and this guy was in
Ohio we just had a blizzard in the middle of us small games middle of the
country and that's where the package has been delayed but like
four or five days.
I'd explain that this person.
They're like, oh, you have to open a claim, find it where it is.
I'm not going to be able to find it.
There's no one, there's no cell phone that I'm going to be able to call this truck driver to say,
hey, where are you?
Because this buyer is wondering?
The thing is that.
And that's what this buyer couldn't concept is.
I wasn't doing something he was telling me to do.
And I'm like, there's nothing I can do.
It got out of hand a little bit.
Do you offer combined shipping?
Sure.
I do.
do you have any available I need more for a model said sorry board model all right so next question is do you combine shipping sure sure what exactly looking for that's items to purchase
remember now I have no more free shipping exactly you're looking for items to purchase and my loan chopped away a little bit oh and a big chopper my loan so let's see
Does it have no power?
No, this, this is marked as no game in the title.
It would have power.
Does DOS.
DOSE does.
510 a lot.
We seven.
I'm also looking for a Sanrio CD drive.
And maybe you can across them?
Oh, see, guys.
I got lots of things.
I have a model two Saturn.
This is a question.
I have a model to Saturn US model.
The load switch is fault.
Do you have?
What I need?
So you need to tell me.
I need exact board four pin by power supply unit.
Four pin, five pin, or the power supply unit.
Do you mean the component switch on the motherboard?
If so, I do not pull items board to sell.
However, I can sell a, it's all about the sake of it, I need to know.
Hey, really interesting in this and was wondering what's the best practice.
The best price, the best price is 40% off.
40% off shown on listing.
I am already lower.
The game's just a bonus.
Best offer is already already.
See?
That's why I don't have best offers, man.
Really?
Although I still stress me out a little bit,
but I mean, not stressing me up, but just aggravate me.
Now I'm having to worry about it.
You have to ask me.
Then I give you the spiel.
Best offer is already 40% off.
40% off.
As shown, I'm listing.
I'm already much lower than all on eBay.
Games were just a bonus.
I would not sell for a penny.
My sale ends tomorrow.
I'll see my sale and soon.
I'll be removed.
So I did that for somebody
and they were really cool with me about it,
but this is different.
It's like I had a PS5,
no, PS5 Pro I just bought.
How about the G19?
Let me have one more.
PS2.
PS2.
I have one more PS2.
To test,
then pull
the board.
I never know
what is inside.
Three.
I will do
to share my YouTube channel.
Make money on it.
So I've tried to at least use it for
communicate with buyers.
And to cross-sell back to my eBay if I can.
I really my only
this is the
main page.
now. All right. So that's it. 40% off. I got that PS, my PS4 Pro. It's fully intact, sealed,
fully works. It's really cheap right now. And twice I've got more off. You see what I'm saying?
I don't know about anybody else, but that will just drive, it does drive me crazy.
But the thing now, like I said, is you have to ask me directly.
That's never a good thing to do.
Tell me I got 40% off sale and you want more off.
So, back to the point that I had the,
so this guy wants me to take two games away from my PS4 Pro
and give him a less of a price because I take away two games.
No, I'm not going to do that because it's already 40% off.
The other day, I bought my PS5 Pro.
The guy had it with the controller and the wires.
So I contacted him in the same way, but it wasn't any,
There was no percentage of it was just what he was selling for.
And the PS5 pros are really,
and they're in the hundreds and hundreds of dollars.
So I contacted none.
Like, hey, listen, I don't need to control all the wires.
You make out a deal.
You just ship the PS5 Pro.
And it would cost you less.
And he did.
He gave me a huge discount.
So he sold the controller separately for X amount.
It was a lot cheaper.
So, yeah, sometimes I would do that because he did that for me.
That was pretty awesome.
But if I have a sale for 40% off,
and then you want to take more off now.
And I've looked at around what the pros are selling for on eBay.
There are a lot more to what mine I saw for.
It doesn't have a controller, but, man, it has the games instead.
So I'm not going to pull away games to make it cheaper.
Actually, I'm almost ready to take that down and just sell it differently.
But we'll look right for a bit.
So there's always options of things we can do.
And I throw another 5% discount here and there.
So it's like, yeah.
So I just have two orders, which is fine.
I got some other thing we're going to do today.
So get that.
Somebody wants me.
This Sega Dreamcast, top lid cover.
I got to do that.
So I want one order on Etsy.
Two on YouTube.
I mean two on eBay rather.
On this, my way.
Slowly chopping away at my little loan now.
Oh, yeah.
We're getting down there.
You can see the light in the end of the title on my Lieber's loan.
bang those they gave me estimation of five months just because I had a lot of sales and
things have been some big things sold we've done it in almost two months for about
about three months I'm not there yet all right everyone so that's what we got going on
here this morning new day new morning freezing we got a lot of stuff to do so
all right so you have a great day and I will talk to you tomorrow all right bye
