Morning, everyone. It is now 5.35 a.m. Today's Saturday. It's January 24th, 2026. And we're on Saturday. Oh, no, we just said that we're on Saturday. So we have a major storm coming, and the whole country does. The storm looks pretty brutal. I got so much done yesterday. It was pretty crazy. What a crazy day. I wasn't really tired, though. It wasn't that cold, so I accomplished everything I needed to do. First, I went a few towns down over and went for a little ride. It was my day trip. I'd never get out of the house, so it was fun to go for a day trip. My most favorite place ever, a candy store where I go. And I got a just a small lot of gaming stuff, but I got a really good lot.

I'm really happy with it. You know, it costs a little pricey, but you know, you gotta pay for what you get, but I think we'll do all right in the end. And then we came back home and then I decided, well, when I first got up, I pulled out my snowblower. We tried to start a little bit of time, but it didn't start. But we saved that for later. And then after I got back, I decided, kept an eye in the storm. I said, well, I have an older generator, but it's time to invest in a new one.

So that's what we did. So we went and got a generator, got out of the box, super heavy. But look, you can easily get it down, putting it in a little bit, putting it in a little in the car is the hard part. They had two guys do that. But to get it down is easy to just slide it down. So I don't have to lift it or anything. Put the wheels on.

We put in the backyard and it's under the carport. And it's ready to go. So we'll play around that today. We're back to the snowblower and I got it working. Got some stuff. New gas. I put more gas in it and some spray stuff and spark plug. And I had put in the spark plug in it,

but never really ran it in like three or four years. It's just been sitting there. I try to keep it covered as best I could But that's ready to go It doesn't work perfect I'm the tires flat but I got some fixed slot stuff So we are Prepared now I think for whatever we get tomorrow

We're down by the coast So it probably won't be as bad But it could be a lot more heavy rain Wet snow So that might be trouble With the snowblower but we'll try to keep up on it So I'm going to have to do So tomorrow will be quite the interesting day as well

then also and the last thing I did is I started a big sale yesterday because to buy that generator was a real expensive and a few other things I've been getting so I started a big sale and I sold a whole bunch of things already be interesting to see what my store on many things I sold I may have to stop the sale we'll see how I already got a bunch of stuff that sold at a time I got back doing everything I was doing

I was in and out of the house working on the generator and then working on the final I finished up with the snowblower and I had a whole bunch of orders that are already piled up so well we'll see eBay should be interesting today let's see if what how we did we went to 40% off so we'll say let's see let's we go let's look at the news for a few minutes tomorrow's football yay we're gonna make sure I have power so I um get myself in here I just want to be prepared I probably won't need it we never usually lose power here where we are I'm going to take the other generator that's kind of the same but a little bit older one.

Actually, it's a lot older, about 10 years older. And I'll fix it up this summer and then try to sell that. I'm going to buy a few hundred bucks or something. It's a good generator. It's got that 8,000 watt so I can run pretty much the house. I already had the adapter from the outside. You plug the 30-amp plug-in on the outside, and it's already wired to my panel. pretty much almost like a whole house one they're not quite there's going to be a

jimongi 4 that's pretty awesome so let's get the business here this morning at see nothing going on some we bought something but on ebay they asked me Etsy and found it on eBay so 2,137 sales i've done all time on Etsy at 744 feedback most of positive 5 full star they don't have negative they first have by the star which i like I don't like the whole negative neutral thing. We can get really brutal, as you can see, on my negative neutrals. Let's see what's next. Let's go to Parshmark, social media site.

Yeah, I'm in for a long day now of orders, which is great. It's all we're going to do. I probably won't do any videos. Oh, and I did, of course, the video when I picked up all my stuff, $1,312. And then we also did even after. After I finished my snowblower, we did a quick, really go-through of all my councils that I got, and I did pretty good. I'm really happy with the results. Most of them are clean.

Most of them work. I can see. I'm a quick test. So that's how we finished my day. Boy, that was quite a day yesterday. But we get a lot done. Then I was pooped. Of course, I'm doing my late-night thing, not all night, but just for a few hours just so I can get myself out there at nighttime, too.

We're going to add some more effects to it eventually. I'm going back there again. All right. So parchment is the same. No sales. More followers. Just keep plugging along here. Really excited to see what eBay is going to bring me.

Really excited. Let's look at RSS.com. Let's get a look here. Oh, we had four download yesterday. 671 the last 30 days. 2,245 all time. It's been over a year now since I've been podcasting, I think. It's my message in a bottle,

which goes over the internet ocean, wherever it may go. Really exciting to see where I end up. Singapore has been steady with me, so that's pretty awesome. Minneapolis, Bedford, the UK, so that's a new one. Three downloads. United States, Buffalo, Colorado Springs, There's two downloads. Singapore has 10 downloads.

That's pretty awesome. They always download a lot. Another one that downloaded the most ever, 500-something, so that's cool. I thought I could share my voice in my little world with someone way across the world. Across the world's almost by Australia. Totally world's away.

So it's pretty cool. All right, check by monetize. You guys know the big bucks we make here as a podcaster. 45 cents still. I haven't made it anymore. that's going to transfer over. That's what it says estimated. When I transferred over the last time,

45 cents went to 15 cents. Right now, it's still estimated. And I've made 15 cents as being a podcast. It got monetized in July this summer. They just passed. Okay. Let's go to YouTube. I have to.

I must. And I am not promoting anymore. So all my videos you'll see, you won't see any more. of views you'll just see a few hundred. You won't even see a few hundred. You'll just see tens and tens of views. Just can't do it.

I really overshot that. While you weren't missing around, about the snow. It's a big one. Feel it. So I'm sure we won't need to generate and all that, but maybe we will. So all my numbers will drop.

So I'm at 103,029. So that's still falling. I'll be under $103,000 before we know it. But it's held kind of strong for a little while. My peak was $103,655 since I stopped promoting subscribers, which I won't do anymore. Maybe if I get under $100,000, maybe I'll promote it. My view hours of going down now, $1.4 million, watch hours, 10.8K. And all those numbers used to be really, really high.

But at the end of the day, the estimated revenue is still $20. $0.67. So we had numbers where I had videos at $300,000 video views, and still the revenue never changed at all. So just finally come to the decision. I need to break on all this. Well, we still do the videos. Just let them just run for 10 views, 20 views, whatever.

Three of my last promoted ones are 9.6K for one of the customers service. The first snowstorm, 226, 6.5, winter check in, 10 5 point k even those i only those i did 10 dollars squirts motions and i got that much so the difference between none and 10 a 10 dollar squirt is a big difference if i were to do some it had to be really small i want to make something turned to from 20 or 20 or 20 or some views i had 10 views of my end of the day so it that's that's normal just never going to do anything other than that You can only do you and at some point you just have to realize that's it. What you got.

All right, let's see what eBay did for me. This is where we'll see how we did. Oh, not too bad. 12, 3 plus down, 3 plus sales. 40% off. Oh cool, nothing too crazy. I need a lot of orders. We have a lot of stuff, but I don't want to be running out like a knucklehead.

So let's check. check I got some boxes came in the apps away for my 14 by 12 by 4 boxes to come in I got I ordered a PS5 pro which came in and I ordered the original death strand once the director's cut my pro I'm going to transfer my game over to there so I can get on live and keep my other PS5 as a I just got a pro in for the PS4 so I really keep my PS5 as the pro all right so super slim motherboard top and bottom cover there's a 4-0-0-1 we can do that I got two super slim and I believe they both work we'll tear one down today get that out and 64 marble rumble oh it's that rumble rumble rumble

uh exact and we sold a super slim oh go we sold a motherboard too so We'll test that. That's the big first thing we do. I threw a bunch of stuff up yesterday after doing quick testing, things that I ran out of. One being the 1540 motherboards. I have five, four from quick testing to work fine. And the other thing I sold was the super slim. I have two, and I believe they have both 401 A or Bs. And I believe both of those work too.

So that's something I sold right away. right to I listed it and then we sold a power supply for the oh 1.0.1.1 1 motherboard straight line so the straight line power supply those are four so I didn't really have a man to thought I'd expect to not those in the wake up to like 30 views we do have a lot look way what kind of screws it used to see what here it's after thinking out of it I have a hundred hundred steps up to All right another one of what kind of screw is used for the display connect so the top cover just needed a good as I showed you you so this is my thing I'm working on so the top cover is in the cook and I showed you I put that other on this because the

universal universal universal slot and was cleaner on the outside I totally overlooked spill time it was just for me reset sorry all extra work the intent what kind of A screw is used for a screw or display. A screw display. This is about the thing there. It looks like it's working on it right now. So the top cover for some reason, I swapped it. And when I sold, I was keeping the N64 for myself,

but it decided to sell my N64 with the scoop in the 09 under it. And it had a universal cartridge slot with my double D. And somehow I never looked at the top cover. that it was something was sticking on it. All the controls port's been tested. I can retest

and I usually test later today. 40% off. That is enough. All right, hi. Is this shell top scratch? Snow scratches. 9,000 model 2.

Can't. Is this shell scratch? Yes. Oh. Scrat. I have many scratches. Detailed as many photos. Samosas. Sorry. I didn't quite understand the listing. Does the power board? It's detailed in the title. Power's on. It plays game. It has rust spot. I only get so many words. to use in the title someone else asked to retest the ports so i will video it later on my youtube channel same name i went back to that makes more about what you're saying same name

re-testing this exact. It's detailed right. It's detailed right, right, right in the title. Power's on. It plays games. It plays games. That's a rest spot. Do you consider that. Dude, 40% off is enough. This is the oversized. I don't probably didn't want anybody that's asking to take more off.

That's why I got rid of that's best offers. Question, so install these they don't work or you're not you're now some as detailed The motherboard does not use use these So I was not able to install them Grivt does not use these so is not able to install them Okay, so so we got it I told two people that want more. 40% are huge sale.

Took away best offers for this exact reason. Not many stores you go into where you buy a item, buy a item at discount, then go to the register to pay and ask for another 50% off those days. No luck needed. 40% is a huge sale. I took away best offers for this exact reason. Not many stores you go into when you buy an item. buy an item at discount, then go to the register to pay and ask for another 15% off. Those days are gone.

That'll be a sell owner. I mean, it'll be a buyer I never have. It's just silliness. So that's a heck no. So we're also throwing another 5% of this. The best thing I did, even though it made me a lot slower, took away best offer on top of sales. I had to do it because I was driving myself to the same. I don't care if somebody asks me if it's something decent, but this one here was already down the 40% off,

and then you want to knock down another $25 off of that, making that even half of that. And if I wouldn't have taken away best offers, that's what I would have got for best offer. $20. So now I can just tell people, go away. They're not going to buy it from me anyway, even at the 40% off, so why not have a little fun with it? because you have to have a little bit of fun, and then I just want to have to worry about that being a buyer anymore. Pretty simple.

Still have huge sales, so it's the best I can do. 40, 45%, almost half of everything. So we saw some stuff. Help me out, I'll take it. It's still be a little frustrating, but not too bad. But we helped build some stuff. Build some hurting bombs, as I call it. That's from Rocky Balboa, the movie.

I like that one. It's his last one. He fights for one last time. and there they go in the gym and he said we're going to build some hurting bombs so i always use that that term or that saying when i need to build some capital some money back build some hurt and bombs so that's what we had to do by doing a big sale so it worked out so it's nothing to no overwhelming that i can't handle so i got full more orders plus i think i've six so ten probably take me most of the day to do those pretty awesome all right everything's working out

And then we'll hunker down for this storm and we'll see what happens. So it doesn't happen. Maybe it's just nothing, but I'm a nice new generator and we'll resell the older one. That's Bluetooth in the generator. Why I need Bluetooth on generator? Didn't come with oil, which makes sense now because it wouldn't want to ship with oil. And then it doesn't have a battery charger plug. My other one, you had a plug that you charge with the battery.

So we had to figure out that's all about, too. So I haven't really looked at it. Other than that, it's going to be really cool. I'm not really going to set it up, I don't think. I got the gas, got everything. I'm not going to put anything in it. I'll leave it new and it's out of the box. If you weren't out of power, then I'd just set it up.

As opposed to putting gas in and the gas gets old old's inside there. I'll just leave it without gas and oil right the second. It'll just be new, but out of the box. All right, everyone. So you have a good weekend. If you're anywhere near this big storm, I'll be interesting to see what happens for everyone out there. We'll talk about it.

And, of course, I'll do some videos while I'm snow blowing. I think here we're going to be really heavy and wet, so snowball won't work, but not as good if it's light and fluffy. 12 inches may be here. We're on the coast, 18 or so up north more. So we'll see what happens. We'll have fun with it tomorrow. Either way. And the Patriots play tomorrow too.

We'll see where that goes. All right, everyone. So I'll talk to you tomorrow. Bye.
