Morning, everyone. It is now 4.23 a.m. Today is January the 18th. It's 2026. And we're on Sunday. We love our Sundays. I can take a little bit of break, put orders and everything going on, so we can see what's going on. Yesterday we did, oh, we worked on a sharp twin Famicom. First, I couldn't get it to work. Pulled it all apart, and then the port in the back. It's really, really loose for the video. But then we got it to work. But I thought I had fixed the floppy drive.

Those are those really cool custom floppy drives for the Famicom. It's the disc system. It's included. That's why it's called the twin because it has the FamicomCon and the disc system on it. Unfortunately, it doesn't work now. I finally got it to all fire up at the end of the video, and then the disc gives me an error. I'm not sure why. But it used to work.

So we're going to sell all that off for parts. So I started out with just retesting it because I found the power supply. It's 7.6 volts for that. I have an original one. And I originally had two of those. And one came with 7.5 custom volts, which technically isn't the correct one. But somebody used it for that. And we couldn't get it to work.

So I said, what the heck? We're doing the video. So we just tear the whole thing down. There's lots of fun parts to it. So we're going to a little by little, we'll get all those parts listed. The motherboard works. A controller. We went inside of that too as well.

All the pad thingies. I took some pad things off the other, another controller and kind of freshened it up a little bit. So it seems like it's better. I just haven't got it back together. It's about as far I think I've got, with that video, I ended up playing around with that controller. Now my mother and the dogs got up,

suddenly that pretty much ended the video. So I got a lot of things to do after that. So let's check the game. So my prediction was just, Denver and San Francisco won last night. But I don't know it because I haven't looked. Today is the Patriots.

I don't expect the Patriots to win either tonight. But we'll see. We'll make it lucky. They are a special team, though. I'll tell you that. Let's see how really special. Taking and beat them, that'll be pretty awesome.

That game, I didn't stay up for the Buffalo, obviously. At 4.30, I was already in bed. Already sleep. I was tired. Tonight, I may stay up pictures games earlier at three so yeah I think we could stay up for that one it's a little bit earlier the game will get going I'll see I'll get the feel of how I think it's going I see it's getting

lopsided already then I may just go back to bed but we'll see all right so let's get the scores well through yesterday oh then I sat down for about two and a half hours of death training two went back to the beginning with the the roads I haven't finished and I've got one built and I've almost got enough to build a second month one. We've delivered some more stuff and bulked up some more on my all my things. It was pretty fun. I ordered the original death training of PS5 version. The director's got, we're going to go back to that one too. Just all about desk training. There's no other games to me that even compares to those to. If you're into just being on your own, doing little

things all day long when I would shoot and kill them and I think, that's why I like this because there's really no, I mean, you have to go after those guys once in a while, but I just, I haven't easy mode so I just hit them with twice and then they knock them out and then I shoot me as many times as they want and I'm going to die so it's pretty awesome that's the way I like it set up perfect for me all right so let's see what the results were whoa yep Broncos beat the buffalo buffalo can will never make it past the first two rounds 33 but the sea hawks beat up on the can't on San Francisco whoa Wow, I wasn't seeing that one coming.

41 to 6. It's the big dog in Seattle. And the Broncos in pants. Buffalo. I mean, Josh Allen has given his body, his mind, his soul to that team. But they just never built a team around him. It was just always him.

And at the end of the day, he can only do so much. And he's getting older now. So it's just like Patrick Mahomes, who blew his knee out this year he was he was the only one left it was running around like a mad person and he ended getting hurt so no buffalo the uh bill's mafia goes home again so that leaves Denver so Denver is the big dog still and Seattle so both of those teams are going to sit and wait for the next team is your patriots of the Texans let's spend a good game at those 33 to 30 what was it's in support all right so let's

going on this one let's check the news a little bit see if you think anything around here got some things I'm bracing for something at eBay hopefully it doesn't happen but if it does it's gonna really put me in the tailspin for a little bit but we'll figure it out shouldn't have happened but I think it might happen hopefully doesn't figure you can't believe John Hobbaugh is going to the Giants Giants need something news San Francisco didn't make it, huh? I got beat up.

I had San Francisco. I don't know anything about it. Kirk Cousin. No, no, that's not Kirk Cousin. I forget who's the quarterback. So he finally made it through a playoff game, and he won big, too. Good family.

He always faltered in the playoffs. All right, so let's go look at some business here this morning. That was interesting. Nothing here on Etsy. So today we're going to do, I got some batteries that came in, some old tech. ones for batteries for my

camcorder I'm going to do some videos using old camcorders as the as the source of the video and upload and then some I'll upload them see how it comes out so I'll do my desktop with old camcorders some ideas

of something fun see how it comes out but first I got to get the camcorder work I got the really old one with the VCR taping it VHS tape in it. And then I got a little bit newer ones with like the 8 millimeter type. So I'm working on a few. I brought a whole bunch of old camcorders up.

And then I have these can't have these two cameras. Actually, I ordered a third one that was cheap. It's a camera. There's an old Sony camera that you put a floppy disk in. And you can take pictures on the floppy disk. They're pretty cool. I like that old tech. Just like computers.

and gaming old stuff, cameras are pretty neat too. So we'll hopefully get one to work, and then I can take some pictures now and put it on floppy and then do something like them. I don't know what. Just for fun. We'll talk about, I'm going to pull those cameras out today. Two batteries came in, so we'll charge batteries a little bit. I open the box, we'll charge the batteries.

We'll talk about some old tech. That's why I changed my store to FF Archive Emporium, because I didn't do lots of other old stuff besides game and doing more of that now than ever did josh yon wipes tears away takes blame for his his four turnovers led to another playoff loss uh four turnovers uh yeah oh yeah another playoff loss that team's going to dismantle this this year i wouldn't be surprised to see that coach go as well and it's the same another year the same results something's got to change I really would see that

that coach can be in the next one he's just got to shake it up after all it just he never really gave well he did four turnovers that didn't know about he must have a really good well I know they have really good defense with Denver

watch it into chaotic overtime tracks to controversial Josh Allen overtime interception also they got to the overtime chaotic fumble before half time pretty well must have been a really good game with that

all right so let's continue on business here i just didn't want to dip for i like football but i don't want to i rather sleep honestly keeps my routine good i need to stay in routine uh 1,298 followers here on parchment nothing's really changed that's normal just keep it on it and we keep it going doesn't cost me to be here so no sales let's go to my RSS feed oh so Broncos quarterback suffers season season ending broken ankle oh wow that's interesting so I wonder what the back quarterback is then I didn't see that for broke his ankle who's a quarterback man we play for that yeah oh next Marvin Mim so that's a wide receiver hey hit

Two interceptions, three touchdowns, one interception. Rushing. Over time. Field goals and overtime. So let's go on to RSSP here. As always, my day really doesn't go until I get to eBay. Let's see if we had any download just today. Just one.

675 in the last 30 days that will really drop down now. 156%. So it's going to drop down to the normal 30 and 30 days. 2,216, one in the last three episodes. So Singapore is still with us, with me rather. Keep saying not seven, it's just me. Singapore, eight in the last seven days. Minneapolis is seven in the last,

seven days. Richland is two, also in the United States, and Canada and Tel Aviv, Israel. It's my message in a bottle over the Internet ocean, wherever it may go. It's really fun to see where it ends up all over the world. dots around the world. Check on monetize here.

Let's keep you guys updated on the big bucks I make. 44 cents. I made a penny. So again, we don't make pennies here in the United States anymore, but I do. I make them. Eventually, they'll turn over to available balance. What's what happened? The last time I had 45 cents, it dropped down was 15 cents,

and that was my 15 cents. It's been in my lifetime I've made on this podcast. It would be awesome. All right, let's go over to YouTube. which is about the same for generating revenue. We did I 101. I'm leaving that as my main video for a while. Switching up a little bit doing on that.

I hit some views. They give you a, they have to do a long live stream or any live stream. They give you a little short. They turn it into a short. They take a little snippet of it. So I'll usually get like 170 views for that. So my subscribers are 103,000,

72. So still dropping, negative 425%. I did promote my one-on-one, so put that only for the website and for views. So views, we have still at 1.7 million. This says the last 28 days, though. Watch hours, 12.5. Estimated revenue is $21.22. So I made a dollar or something. I made a penny on my podcasting last yesterday's, a day, and then, the last day here on YouTube I made maybe a dollar between the two on winter check-in sound my number one video 30.1k a 13.2k is my two other videos that still have a

little bit of a promotion squirt left on them then they're gonna end after five millions is 10 10k the PS4 one's 13.2 camp that was just a cool a little score a little ten dollar shot a promotion just to run it to get some views I don't do it and then maybe I'll get 20 views just you can see if you look at my views on my any of my playlist and if you see some of them like on my daily gaming workbench you'll see most of them you'll see one that says 15 views and then you'll see another one says 15 K views so the difference between 15 views and 15k views is I promoted even a $10 squirt then there's 62 views is one video is 24 I just got it

really cut back down if I was making money and I thought I was able to get a credit towards some promotions but it doesn't seem like it's working so so I'm let's see if we have any followers here subscribers they think I had a few new people subscribe oh there's one I one new subscriber nothing big though of course I can't see most of them no comments so we're up to about 30 30 k views in my winter check-in That was a good one. I put a lot of time at that one. I was in there for a good hour,

trying to give you an insight of everything. eBay, YouTube, RSS.com, all of that stuff. For those little stores out there. Not store at well. Little stores and little YouTube channels. All right. So now we'll get to the business at hand. Let's see.

Hopefully something doesn't happen. I'm afraid it's going to happen. So nothing. So I didn't have any orders actually at all. Purchase is a bad screen. I recapped. Let's see. We've got some of it.

So I have nothing going on. So that's good news. I'd rather have nothing. No sales than anything. So I'm fine with me today. Purchase is a bad screen. I recapped the board and got a working game gear now. Overall,

overall cleaning, good condition, fair pricing, the same photos. Oh, so that's cool. That's the guy to order the game gear. You got it to work. It's always a recap. Items were packed securely, very well. Shipping time was great. Items in great condition.

We'd absolutely deal with the seller again. Oh, that was the metal clamps as described. I don't see anything else about something. There was a problem. I don't think there was a problem, but it was my big order, my really big order. And so far I haven't heard anything. Either way, there was a message. Yesterday we talked about the message real quick.

I replied to it given the video showing everything worked as supposed to. Dester ending, oh, it's a special discount. I already got one. Oh, it was $22. I already got one. Destering, the original one. We're going to fire up that too. I don't think is my

PS5 is account locked so I'm not interacting with any anybody online which is kind of a bummer I considering I can't get it now I will like to upgrade to a PS5 Pro at something but I can't until

so maybe then at that point I can take the game that I've been playing on my PS5 that is back with compatible I mean my PS5 that is a count lock and transfer the game to a pro that I get my count back I can't do it now I think I can I'm not positive I think you have to be hooked up to you should be able to save a game on a USB or something we'll figure it out all right so let me transfer a little funds we're really chopping way at my loan actually I'll be ready for another one on

Maybe another month. Cool. I need to really stop preparing for major changes, and we talk about it all the time. They're coming. But hopefully not for a long time, I hope. This is really going to be difficult for me. I have no idea how it's going to go down either.

I've got to my own health. I've got to keep my own own health. Yeah, so we're getting a little three-quarters of the way. I still get a long way to go, but compared to the... So this is through Libris. It's my first cash advance business loan. What they do is you take out X amount. They throw another a Y amount of the interest right on top of it as the complete loan.

And then you just stop paying it off through your sales. Pretty awesome. 29% is what they take. The 29% always goes to them to chop out of the way at the loan and then the rest goes for me to pay my bills. So when this is done, I'll have established a good first loan. And then the loan should go up significantly. And I need to keep running them. I used to do a PayPal all the time.

Way back in the day when eBay was connected to PayPal, they had the same concept. And that's how I really started being able to purchase a lot of stuff because I could use those. And it's money you just don't see. So it doesn't, and it's not like a crueling interest. So you can chop it away. Best thing eBay is done since Libris.

They've had some other capital things, but they always were through credit. And I couldn't get it because my credit was crappy. Although my credit also, we talked about, I've been in a debt consolidation program for about four years, putting myself through at-home gaming school, like any other school, you got to take out a loan somewhere to go to school. For me, it was going around purchasing systems from around the world and getting lots of systems and buying local and all that. So all that money had to come from somewhere, so I used on my credit cards over the years. So then we racked up, I don't know, $30,000 of credit cards. We went to a debt consolidation program and I'm almost done.

Cut a lot of them down. The National Debt Consolidation worked out really good for me. I'm down to like one. I'm still paying off the last ones, but all of them were settled. And now National Debt Consolidation is turning into another program called REACH, which is a loan that's going to pay off the rest of what I owe on the other debt. debt companies, they'll pay it off with that money, and then I'll just pay that loan. But we're going to, I'm going to refinance into the house here.

Because my car payment that I have, my mother I got, the car payment, the Subaru, which I use it all time, it's really awesome. The interest rate is like 19%. It's crazy. And the loan for the reaches around that, too. But we're going to throw all that into a refinance for the house here. I got a lot of capital. I'm in a lot of equity here.

So my point from all my, everything's kind of falling into place, I think. You prepare myself being on the most I can. So it's a little update on my, so I just pay bills. That's all I do. I don't really, any extra money I have, I go out and get some fun stuff to video and to learn about pretty much. So, and everything's broken down to the four payments, using the

Colin app K-L-A-R-N-A I want a lot of money that one too but I can break everything on the four payments it's pretty awesome no interest there

so I well take advantage of that so all those ingredients there is how we've got to where we are and I have zero in the bank for savings but you only live for so long

so you might as well go out and have some fun with it pretty cool let's see So yeah, so no sales at all. I still have it. Remember, we change everything in my store, no best offers.

And that will significantly change things. But it's been, the order's been pretty good, but I have two sales that are running that are pretty big sales. Let's see what the discounts are. It should be running through the weekend. Yeah, 26, 20% off extra, which ends the 31st.

Oh, that I can win on the 31st. and oh a sale event yeah 15% off so I have 35% off 15% off everything and then another 20% off

from the things over $30 I think that's best I can do I just had to take a break from Best Oprah for a while okay everyone so that's it right today enjoy the Sunday

I will Patriots are no respect to win, but maybe they get lucky, we'll see. All right, so you have a great Sunday, and I will talk to you tomorrow. All right, bye.
