I stayed up for the Death Stranding 2 On The Beach Count down with Recap and all intro Play until 1am.Death Stranding 2 On the Beach Count Down with Recap and Game Play

Good morning everyone. It is now 658 It's June 24th 2025 And we are in a midst of a major heat wave Today we're going to be in the hundreds feel like well, I'm on the coast. It's not as bad, but still gonna feel like that here It's the first time we've had this high of a temperature in June So it's a record-breaking day for us here in Rhode Island It's the first time we've had this high of a temperature in June.

So it's a record breaking day for us here in Rhode Island. But yesterday was really hot so pretty much stayed inside all day. We have central air so a little mini splits there. So that's a blessing on days like today and then actually tomorrow. So if you get three consecutive 90 degree days, you end up with a heat wave. So we're definitely gonna get a heat wave because we're also gonna be 90 degrees tomorrow.

And then we're gonna go cool off just a little bit after that for a little, and get back to normal. But we'll see what happens. July's gonna be brutal in August. Even September can be pretty brutal. But we're in summer, it's here, we're in it. So moms will enjoy it.

I mean I don't live that far from the beach and beaches I'm sure are really packed but I don't go to the beach. I can imagine sitting in a hot beach. It'd be fun to go in the water maybe but even then it's just not my thing. So I really don't need to live near the beach, but it is cooler and having except The weather is usually pretty not severe Not many tornadoes and stuff unless we're in the north around here How although hurricane season should be brutal as she I could see it's already turning up last

I heard we were at number F for a name storm So that's really early for June. So God bless us all on this hurricane season. Someone's going to get something somewhere. It's just inevitable. It's just where and how bad. It's pretty scary stuff. So yesterday I finished my 10 day Death Stranding 2 countdown and it was really hard for me to stay up. I went to bed and then I got back up around 8.39 and then I watched a movie. I'm really into the swarm now on Apple TV+. I highly suggest Apple TV+.

Lots of fun stuff. I just started watching the invasion. That's pretty cool. And then finally I turned my livestream on and my video And we counted down and we finally got to Death Stranding 2. Pretty cool A little different than I expected, but I didn't expect it to be as good as the first one out of the shoot Major changes which of course you got to expect But it's pretty cool though. The graphics are phenomenal. I don't have a PS5 Pro so I don't think

how much better it would be but I'm happy with it so far. It's the same story line you gotta walk around a lot. You start off really walking around. Even when I, my first Death Stranding I know I put way over 50 hours. I built all the roads, but I walked most of the time until I got vehicles. And even when I had vehicles, I still walked a lot of the time. So that's the only thing about the game, it's very slow in that aspect. But the story is there once you get to the next destination. And I did the recap with it. They had a cool quick recap

as part of the game play or before the game started rather. So we put that in the video so you can get an idea. I could learn what BT mean. I never knew it meant beach things. I missed that part in the original. So it was fun. So we're done. So now I'll just just sit back and up his plate when I feel like I'm not gonna video playing the game I just want to do up to it. So the next one I'm gonna do when it comes out is Subnautica and that comes out I'm not sure when to Subnautica 2

That's a real big fan of that first two games. Alright, so let's see what's going on here this morning. Yesterday we did a few things Alright, so let's see what's going on here this morning. Yesterday we did a few things. Let's see the news out here this morning. Yeah, so I got interrupted sleep, which is weird for me. I'm a schedule kind of guy. I need to be on a schedule. So getting up and then trying to go back to sleep around 1230.

But I did and then I got back up again around 6 so we're gonna do yeah yesterday I did a couple things and then today will of course we'll do other stuff I'm gonna get that back to Retron 5. I think it says, can I do GameCube yesterday? I can't remember, I might have. Oh, we did the Xbox 360, of course. We're always doing Xbox 360s. It's one of my most popular stuff to sell parts of. The Fats, that is, and I have so many of them.

And I still have a lot left, so that's pretty cool. So Etsy has just been a dud. I think I'm going to get hit with all kinds of charges coming soon. It's a bummer. Not really getting any activity at all. So we'll have to re-evaluate what I'm going to do with Etsy here. I've got to figure out when the next next cycle so it's 20 cents per listing which you don't seem like a lot but if you have I have a hundred and twenty eight listings so that adds up

but I really want to keep my Etsy still going so that means I'll probably get like 50 bucks worth of unpaid that aid that okay so let's see let's go on to let's go to my RSS feed this morning a few downloads here and there only had really short podcasts last couple days. There really hasn't been much going on which is actually good though. No news is good news. But we'll see what today brings. And we're just hunkering inside which I do anyway.

I built my life around being home-based which works for me Everything I need is right here. Oh, I four downloads pretty cool 88 all time I mean 88 in the last 30 days and 656 all time see we got of course Lindale and Ashburn I always count on them, Toronto Pakistan Charlotte United States very exciting so Pakistan, Charlotte, United States. Very exciting. So, that's my message in a bottle over the internet ocean, wherever it may go. Sometimes it goes to lots of places overseas.

Plus I'm on like a couple other podcasts. I'm going to see where... Again, I don't make any money doing this, but it was just something I wanted to add to my YouTube so that's what we did. Poshmark is another thing. Oh today I've got to cross list. It's an app that you use or a website you use to bring things from eBay store to your other stores but it's expensive so I only get it for a month because obviously I'm not really selling here anything on Parchmark. I have 972 followers.

But I'm going to bring some more stuff over here before that app ends, which is in a few days, I think. The 30th. So I still have six days left. I just did it for one month. So let's check YouTube. So we did the video and the live stream. I moved my webcam down so that I could

do a webcam while live stream lower. And I've been doing more closer up webcams. Video cannot be monetized. I didn't think it was going to be able to. Death Stranding 2 I couldn't count down recap. It's not monetized. But I don't make money off anything it doesn't really matter so that one got blocked few options I don't care I only had nine nine people that watch anyways so it's a copyrighted eligible restriction Eligible Restriction This is my first copyright I just wanted to have the fun of doing the countdown really So we did that and we wanted to see for the first few seconds Um, I think I said I said enough about an hour. I had to get to his home

He had a cool home now. Well, that's where he was anyway, and we already saw fragile, which is pretty awesome. Lots of changes. It looked like anything else. 45 seconds average duration. Revenue is going down as usual $30.72. My it was going down as usual $30.72. My 46,572 subscribers. So we're still holding above 500. Remember 655 was the amount. I could easily take any of these videos and promote them and I'd like to get to the 50,000 but not yet I was trying hopefully I could muster do it on its own but it's just not well a little nudge but we'll see all right let's look at eBay eBay it's been pretty quiet but it was a good

week overall actually didn't have anything on eBay. So this will be a day off to do some stuff All good kind of positive feedback yay Some buyers that I had helped out so it was one buyer. He gave me five good feedbacks, which is awesome So I like when I get feedbacks right away. Especially for someone I helped you directly do stuff, oh, I think my sale might have ended too. So let's look at that. So remember, I took out free shipping,

so that's gonna affect everything as well. And, but I've been taking more offers, but then now I get people that offer all down to four dollars Plus the four dollars that I have for flat rate, so it's only eight dollars So that really doesn't help me out So that's a heck no And you know what you do they always want to count you down low But I always I did always I did say that I was always gonna keep free shipping and free returns

But I've changed my mind on that, but I'll always I did say that I was always gonna keep free shipping and free returns, but I've changed my mind on that but I'll always have best offers so I Couldn't not take best offers off. I was gonna do the full dollar flat If I can go down as low as nine dollars and that gets me to 12 so I can handle that That's for my little guys that is So, let's see if the marketing ended. Today's the 24th. Remember this month it did end so we're gonna start a new one today. We're gonna delete this one. So I constantly do sales but we're gonna mix it up today we're gonna

do coupons like to do coupons so we'll do we'll create a coupon so you don't want to do you don't advertise your eBay because then that they charge you even more so we're gonna do 30% off coupon. We're only gonna do it four words today till... Why are we doing music for a week? So today is the 15th... July... no not July, June. So we're in the 25th. So we'll do it till Sunday.

We'll call it FF... Gaming... sold out to sunday or court ff gaming ctm opend gaming june So we'll make that the coupon. It's 30% off. And then we want it to have to go just for... It's going to start now and it'll go for five days. And it's for everything I have listed.

I could launch that. I like to do coupons too. I like to mix it up because I can send a coupon now. There's a place where I could send coupons to Repeat buyers is one category so I'll send that one and Then we'll do Then we'll call thank you bonus savings

We'll send that one I'll send that one. And then we'll do... But you always remember, even if I do 30% people still best offer too. So they want to take more off. It's pretty crazy. But, I'll say, it's depending on what it is. If I have some for $100, listed whichever few things that are, then I can work on it a little bit but alright

so I sent out all the coupons to and then I can do a social which is we'll do it on X. We'll promote it to X. I don't think it really goes anywhere. Everybody sees it, but we still put it anywhere. And then we go to Re-edit. I think that's how you say that. We'll post it there. And then we also can do pin interest, which I never understood what pin interest is. Somebody could explain that to me.

I would love to know. You just pin something and you go to someone else's board to see it just don't get it I don't get pin interest at all somebody must know how what what its issue is I mean what its purpose is I never do so we'll go there well pin interest we also have a posh mark Closet Yeah, let's see what else for your pen interest Yeah, I just don't know what that's about. I think I want more Pinterest here. It's amazing, I have a bunch of different things.

Alright, so we saved those today. What it does in Pinterest, I have no idea. It does look around a little bit. WhatsApp. WhatsApp, I'm going to look at getting into WhatsApp. Because I think there's some things where I can... There's some social action there. I thought WhatsApp was just a... uh... ... ...

...talking or texting. But we're gonna check on WhatsApp. Alright, so that's it this morning. I've got a complete open day today, which is pretty awesome. So, we're gonna go to... Oh to go to Retron 5 and I have two main boards inside. Both of them work and I want to learn how to...

There's a mod for the board. 2.5 something something. So we're going to do both of those and then we're going to list some parts for Retron 5 today probably. Let's see where we're gonna do both of those and then we're gonna list some parts for Retron 5 today probably. Let's see where we're at this morning. Yeah, it's about 16 minutes. So we're gonna go a little bit longer today. So officially Death Stranding has started. It'll be fun. Maybe I'll do a little catch-up every once in a while. I don't get really good time to play that often. I was more fun just having doing the countdown. That's really what I wanted to do. I'll play it when I can get time. It doesn't seem extremely awesome right

at this point. Well, the beginning is always slow anyway. Because you've got to walk more than anything. But we'll get into it. And I don't listen to or read any reviews about anything because it's just my game. So game. So doesn't matter other people think it's kind of silly and So I just play it when I can once a while I'll take a brief look at someone's comment or something, but not not normally I don't say a movie seem everything I don't I have no desire For anybody else's opinion Because it's my own thing

Alright, so then it gets about it. So my flash 15 seconds here on YouTube and giving me numbers of more people And then I do quick three minutes and then I do The long video and then I've been putting one minute Shorts on as a video because that way you can see the whole thing because they cut it with shorts It's really gonna like about shorts with YouTube. It's cut Let's look at something else for a second tick TikTok. Let's look at TikTok from it. Do I have it live then? Oh no, I guess I can't do it. I don't think I signed into it. Yo, whose cat is this bro? I'll have to look later. So I did, I threw the video over TikTok too as well.

I really haven't, I don't really have that many people over there. with TikTok too as well. I don't really have that many people over there. At one point I had a lot more TikTok than I did YouTube and that has since flipped. But unfortunately like I said, YouTube is just more for fun than anything. And I consistently keep doing stuff. So we'll come up with some good videos today.

We'll do some, I lowered my webcam so I'm gonna do a webcam live stream on a lower view and we'll go from there. Alright so you guys have a good day what is today anyway? Today is the Tuesday so today's Tuesday and again we're in the midst of today supposed to be our hardest day today and then we'll got a hot day tomorrow and then we'll cool off a little bit so everyone else try to stay cool out there wherever you may be because basically it's a heat dome through the whole country.

So it's just not us it's everybody so and I'm sure it's around the world too. It's gonna be a long summer so cool stay cool guys and girls. All right I'll talk to you later bye.
