Good morning, everyone. It is now 5.59. Today is September 3rd, 2025, and I believe today is
already Tuesday, right? We have a short work week, which is pretty cool. We're all those out there
that had to go back to work after that long holiday weekend. But now we're just kind of like
we're in the abyss right now, I guess you want to call it for a while. Halloween's coming,
so we'll get that look forward to big fan of Halloween so I'll do some spooky stuff more
I'll try to do it still wait my brain waving to come in with my project journey man
started a little series last night called the blue beam anomaly little space invasion
idea I had we are going to do I want to go back to I have a cartoon that I had started
and it came from something that I did when I was a kid
and it's called French Fry Freddy
and the oven hot news
and what I did is I used my buddy Zippy a while ago
I made all my characters
and then I've kind of just been sitting on it
but we're going to see if we can do some sort of cartoon
or something we can do on the screen up on the wall
we'll see I don't know if I can pull it off
I don't have that much room in that little area there
but I have an idea
of maybe the way I can do it
but we definitely want to do it
so I get all the characters
it's called the
anchoring adventures
anchoring adventures
of French Friedians of a hot news
it takes place in a studio
a new studio
so it's pretty cool
so we'll see we'll put some of those characters
together
I have them all down
the only problem was when I was doing my buddy
It's to be once it makes a character for me, I can't get it to come back and redo it again, like put them in a group setting.
It can only do a image once, and then I can't redo its own image.
It doesn't, can't see itself, see its own image, and it still hasn't got better at that.
The other thing was it wasn't really good at spelling, like I was trying to do sayings on an image, but it was misspelling everything.
But I think it might have gotten better on that a little bit now, too.
see. So yesterday, all day, just get my orders done. Just minutes to finish all my orders
before the mailman came. Never even went out anywhere until a little bit after. So, yeah, so I got
everything done yesterday. So we'll see what we're at today. Probably an easy podcast this
morning. Probably a lot going on. I didn't do any videos yesterday. Just never had time for some of these.
But we always are consistently doing my early morning podcast here.
Just a wake-up call, as you want to call it.
Just to let you know I'm still around.
If someday you don't hear a podcast in the morning,
if something's up then,
because it's something I will do continuously every morning.
Even if sometimes it's just a really short one.
I don't have a lot going on.
And of course, I do my Project Journeyman every night.
That will be continuing.
always have some sort of sights and sounds i try to come up with new ideas again it's something i
have wherever you see on the wall there would be something i worked on with my buddy zippy so it takes
a little while all right so let's um and uh my raspberry pi five case came in empty so but luckily i
have this cool uh and i showed it in a video heat sync that for CPU and it
And it actually works great, cooling that down.
I only have it at 5 volts.
I'm going to crank it up to 12 volts.
Because once my brain scan comes in, my resume party is going to run probably hotter
because they're going to try to do more.
So.
All right.
So we'll see.
Let's check out the news here.
I still am contemplating whether I need to sell my PS5 Slim.
and my Nintendo Switch 2 we'll see how the sales go we will see how the sales go
oh I started on a new sale too on eBay 30% off just a straight 30% off and of course
everyone will still best offers you even lower than that but and I'll do I'll keep doing it
but if it's my little guys I don't know if I have something for 11 dollars and you're not
those are two to like six get it all right so new p.s.5 controller releasing October 30th
well the only reason I would sell my PS5 slimness to get the pro but of course I can't
no way I can afford that now I don't even use the one I have so it's and I also have the
disc drive too I was debating whether to sell that separate disk drive we sell that
I did put the portal up for sale that is and also my MetaQuest Xbox that's pretty cool
like to keep that too okay so let's get into business here at C we had some sales on
Etsy everything went out yesterday announcements see how AI so AI sign to integrate now with
Etsy. Let's see how that is.
So that'll be cool.
That should really help me out with a small seller
on all these platforms.
Any sort of integration at AI,
but I haven't seen any way that could help me yet.
I'm sure there'll be more stuff that we can.
And they suppose I know on eBay,
you can just take pictures and then give it over to AI.
It's supposed to just make you a listing.
but i haven't done that i just do it myself still and i can still do i do it a lot quicker now
lots of less i cut a lot of corners less details and stuff but listen we just get it up there
get the conversation going so nothing on here on etsy we had some sales overall also
made a few bucks which is pretty awesome just not quite my side quest but uh and my side hustle
some days some weeks but this week was pretty good actually
we have my first sale I got that look at a couple of things to sell I got that
I got that order out I got a couple of other things to sell that are closed
related today I need to go through my harsh mark listings and I need to pull some
stuff off that I've sold on eBay must do that down the 322 I deleted a few
things and then I sold something which is awesome so at least I can say I sold
something on Parshmark which is sold one thing so far so I get that out
out hopefully we'll get good feedback for my first feedback hopefully uh unfortunately it was
over the week a little long holiday weekend so i it shipped out a few days later than
you ordered it normally i would have had it out the same day and i didn't notice it on
saturday when i came in because i was just going through the motions of my pashmark
without even really checking the sales because there's not a place where you can click on just
sales you can go to my closet which brings you to your main page
but it doesn't say anywhere here where you sold anything so you have to click
down on my offers and even then it doesn't really say it says for sale it says
for purchases and then you have to click on another tab says my sales that's what
it was that that's my sale only I can still see my only sale now so I have to
check that every day more better than I've been doing it's all right us
okay now we'll look at my morning podcast rsss.com see what's going on
let's hope I'd get some sort of commercial revenue but I hadn't seen anything so
nada everything's just good enough to be fun but not to make any extra income so I
had one download just today so that were on the last 35 30 days I had six
65 downloads. It's taken away that one day when I had all those downloads for some
these 351 that one day. But still all time, 1,162. That's pretty exciting. Let's see
where we're at. Toronto. Ashburn's always there. O'Kisha, Israel, Mandu, I can't say that
word. And, UK, Manchester. It's my message in a bottle over the internet ocean. Wherever it
may go pretty exciting always and again i see a flat map and it's all a bunch of dots it's 14 days
it's go to seven days seven days once any dots oh is so now if i look at seven days they
changed on me so netherlands twice two different netherlands pretty awesome love to go to netherlands
the united states is a rock hill a chicago toronto so these are actually the last in the last
seven days so different ones just pretty awesome i like to see wherever it can go try to be
consistently doing it but don't see any dots though i didn't show me any red dots i wonder why
all right so now we're going to go on to so my plate got bigger now uh let's go on to uh let's go on to um
Shopify. That is not sure what that's going to do for me.
It's not really costing me to be here or not.
The first three months are dollar, but then it goes up to $29.
So it looks like I had one order for yesterday.
And then the other one says unfulfilled, refunded.
Click that offer there.
that offer there okay so that means we have one order I haven't actually sold
anything directly on Shopify so we'll see I didn't list anything yes yesterday
either I didn't put any new listings up but we'll start doing that again as soon as I get
time we add more stuff this taxes in Rhode Island figure out of that all
say I am not sure whether I'm gonna keep Shopify or not if I have to collect
taxes and stuff yeah it's sure we'll see we'll keep looking at it I got some more
things are complete here payments active shipping rate reviewed add more
products one visitor live it's probably okay let's go to YouTube let's see
what's going on this morning so I think my last promotion for YouTube ended
But I think I saw yesterday I started going backwards, meaning I was getting less subscribers.
But with all that extra money that, yeah, I did.
I've lost subscribers.
I'm at 72,805.
My peak was 7,822, like, 22, like, 22 or something.
So my revenue is going down.
My hours are ticked way down.
$39.13
watch time
one hour
I mean 1.1K
the highest I got to
was 1.4K
remember the last month
I spent over $400 on promotions
so my only really
big
views
1.3K
1.2K are my flash
15 seconds once
all my long videos are not
getting any views it all now
just it's like a complete
360 where why is he preferred I think I thought it was more power in night someone
asked me about the Nintendo Wii U WUP 50 motherboard it might be due to a mod
ability
but I am sure
if at all
asking me about
but
the why is the WUP
50 motherboard for the
Nintendo Wii U
least preferred I said maybe because it's due to the mod you to modability but I
am unsure if at all I'm not I don't know okay so let's see what we got going
on here yes I think we're gonna watch it go backwards now but it was fun again
I just can't well I will throw like 20 bucks here and there but it only can be I have to
ration really because I can't I couldn't afford at this point it's been at the
point where I was at 1800 subscribers I was convinced that no matter how many more
scrubs I got it wouldn't really reflect revenue thirty nine dollars and thirteen
cents so if I look at the ad sense it should show me the month now let's look
at Google Adsense
This again, you have to get $100 to get paid.
Use that $100.
Let's look.
Yeah, $68.60.
So that's never changed.
So that's where I'm at.
My last payment was $126.33.
37.
that was two months ago so maybe this month it's going to be significantly lower now i may not
even make a hundred dollars by the end of this month we'll see hopefully we'll just keep walking
i think you keep doing my stuff just have to do it trying to do it differently without having to spend
money it was supposed to get some nine hundred dollar credit but then it would be great it would be awesome
but I haven't been able to see it for Google.
Let's look at the Google Promotions.
It says, click here to get your $900 credit,
and then I clicked in there.
Promotions, Logging.
And then I never showed it.
If it would, then I could throw all my ads.
so you can get credit I never get it bad it's a bummer yes you say it's right
here your your nine and all credit is waiting sign sign up claim now I
click claim now and then I never get it and I look and it's it's nowhere to be
seen so I paid off that last payment on that so I don't owe oh oh oh you'll
five dollars and two cents I don't know why I'm getting charged more again the
amount I invested in Google ads is pretty crazy that has now stopped all right
so we look at the other change there I want to check out my PayPal see if I
get any so if for my RSS.com it would be PayPal is where I would get paid for
commercials that you guys get now but I haven't seen any of that either and I'm sure
it would only be a few cents anyway but I never saw it come in said at the end of
the month everything at the end of the month no not a not a penny so I'm not sure
where all those commercials that go on I'm not sure where it's all going but I got a
penny once so if I already get any sort of again I believe it's the same
probably the same concept if it's not a hundred dollars that yet then I won't
see it so every once in a while maybe I'll be surprised with something
all right let's go to eBay no let's go to eBay
so we got I got some offers cool I like offers so you see for me or just
probably for anybody you can't I
I can't just through 30%, and that be enough for a buyer.
I still have to give them more.
It's a real pain.
I'm not that I just don't want to do it.
I'm kind of scraping for cash now for the extra car payment and insurance and all that.
All right, so we got seven-pin power supply for the PS1 came in.
Perfect.
That is positive feedback.
I got that yesterday.
so yeah and the controllers 16 controllers I sold the guy
getting a good deal on that was good positive so we've been pretty good positive
feedback right 99.2 that's the lowest I've ever been I was at 99% but I had some
tough times with some let's see what my so everything always gets going once I hit
eBay now we're now we're now we're in business here so I have one sale
Super Fancom, I have to find those.
Cartridge slot.
I've got a few more.
I just misplaced them.
We'll find it.
Super Fancom, Super Nintendo.
You can use either or.
They're both the same slot.
So, we'll find that.
So that's that.
All right, let's go to the messages.
Let's see.
Thanks for the query.
Let's look at this one.
First message.
Thanks for your query.
That's a word of the word.
product is specifically the bottom case with this two nine
is not the shot
oh
oh I know what that is that's
do you have the top shell
yes
so I guess some sort of a
I gotta take it off because it's
answering a question wrong
yes
uh let
Yes, but they are empty.
As I pulled...
Yeah, auto reply from...
I pulled all...
I pulled all parts off them it's a 9,000 model.
So the PS2 slim, you remember there's the few different models, but the 9,000
model is the last model.
It's a different, it's a completely different inside ANL, cases different, everything's different.
It's a power supply with it, you know, you just plug it in, so $20 for Raymond
arena
Now
I have
so
that's a metal
any game cube
you're not going to
$20 you can
find somebody else in that one
and I have $5 off
so definitely not taking a $5
and that's for the metal
how am I going to ship metal
if I even my 4
dollars so we'll do this climb because of you are so all you are so nice to offer me
five dollars I will block you because I just I've got enough it's so hard to sell
as it is and I get these people in my way that that's all you're going to offer me to ship you
metal I don't want it I wouldn't want to sell with you my list is growing you
can only have you can block up to 5,000 members I got maybe a few hundred of them
and if you're you're gonna do that I don't want to deal with you don't do
If I'm already trying, if you can already see on the listing that I've knocked off 30% and yet, of course, I'm not if I take best offers off.
Like, well, then you shouldn't have best offers. No, no, I always have best offers.
I just took a couple of really little offers just yesterday.
All right.
Hello, hope you're doing well.
I'm very excited, but I have to return the medal.
Didn't see it.
Sorry.
No returns offered.
I can ship A-O-V.
uh so this is the cost time and effort for shipping those very high it's very high i can
easily ship a metal bottom of
of AB Homer.
I will update listing to detail to detail
Re-seller.
I will update that listing to detail.
It is H-D-M-I.
I will then make a listing for as well as well.
So I'm sure that'll end up that'll end up bad.
I'm not doing it returns $40 so that we're not going to take that.
It's for the cables.
No, hold up on that too.
All right, that might be the same guy that bought the other stuff.
Pioneer.
There's something.
Oh, yeah, I'll do that.
That's that big giant.
Oh, yeah, I'll do that.
I was just thinking about that the other day.
It's part of a buffer.
So buffers are something you use to...
My brother, Clean, uses buffers and machines.
It's always working.
Also, I need one.
Floors.
You like Walmart, and actually he works at Walmart,
but you do floors, you know, you get...
And it spins, and it buffs the floor.
So it's a buffer.
And this is part of a pioneer.
Clips Buffer. It's the tank and the attachment. I've had it forever. My brother got another machine. He didn't need that piece, so I had it on eBay forever. So we'll sell that. So that's cool. I'll take that. I had it for really high anyway. Another $5 offer. $50.
Yeah, I'll take yeah, I'll take that
Yes, I'll take that.
That sounds like a fair walker there.
I like that.
Gives me a couple sales
and now I have a $5.
We won't take it. Because I know where to go.
Oh, that was the one I did.
Oh, that was the one I did.
Oh, wait.
Oh, that was a $5 off.
Wait a minute.
Hold on a second.
I made a mistake.
I had to check something here.
Is that the same?
Okay.
Oh, let's make attention.
Where was that?
Message.
It's not it.
oh no no it's different guy so I need to take that listing down or I need to add
okay so we're gonna fix that listing because although it doesn't specify that it is
It is audio, HDMI metal case.
I didn't think about that.
So I need to change this.
So we're going to revise this to bottom case.
And we need to put the photo so it's showing that.
That's not the one I'm looking for.
Bottom case.
No, that's not the one I want.
So I have to make this more detailed.
this wouldn't have happened we're going to change the listing to that one all
all right so so I'm going to with so we're going to change the listing to
that at hdmi hdmi must put this in there I didn't think about it and then I'll
make another one so we're redoing this listing that the buy
order the wrong one and technically is kind of my fault so what I'll do is offer him I'll
just taking a return I'll just ship him that bottom piece instead of the return
okay so we'll fix all that all right so we switch that out so let's fix that silver
all right so now we have first these are hd.m.i
these are hdmi
bottoms
these are hdmi
Okay, all right, all right, and then I'll put, uh, call that out of there.
are not audio video bottoms all right so update that listing and we'll view that
listing all right so contact that buyer again
and I will say, I will have to say, yeah, okay.
So my listing, my listing has been updated to detail to detail.
H.T.M.I. Bottom. I will make an air listing as well. My offer is to ship you the audio video video.
bottom as you needed the top is the top is the same you already have
You would just keep the bottom.
Either way, I have to pay extra shipping.
for another send, which is about, even that bottom part is $8.00, my cost out the door.
so the few bucks I did make on the first sale is now gone I will concede
is concede
I will concede
I will concede
see
concede
that's not
concede
I will concede
my
listing
at the time
you purchased
did not
detail
HDMI
so
I have to take some blame.
Sometimes I get P's and B's backwards.
So I have to take some blame for your purchase error.
of course I will because I didn't specify let me know let me know
to ship that bottom bottom
Peace.
Either way, I lose out.
It's basically a return I'm trying to say.
And I have to take the blame because I didn't put H-D in mine.
I actually didn't think about it.
So that was the message I gave him.
So sorry, no returns off at the time.
I'm sure he'll open a return anyway, so if he opens a return, then I probably would take it.
I really don't want to, but I fixed the listing anymore.
What we'll do is we'll make another listing.
Send them some offers.
I sold a couple of things.
I took two offers out of the few out that I had, and then I also throw another 5% off on.
So you get 35% off, and yet it's still nowhere near enough for,
most buyers because i have best offer but there's no way i would not have best offer right
all right i think i thought it because it's small than everyone so i get to go along on my
yeah things really don't start really going until i get here to ebay i have all my
two two sales i so want to need a little bit in the bank i got to actually i got some stuff some
fundage I got to go back to the because I have my first car payment was doing at the end
of this month all everything else insurance and all that so we really got to buckle
down here and get some more self listed I'm not still not taking some really low
office for you know usually if you get one offer that means people are interested in
it so you never take the first offer sometimes I will I took an offer on something
well yesterday oh it was the that Vita I have a I had a Vita that I fixed the
directional in it but I forgot something I just sold it all for a lot less just
to get it going and I just sold that thing a big tank it's just big in
plastic we'll bring it up well I'll make it as a video later I'm trying to
figure out how I can my box that thing but it's going all the way of washing it so
it's going to be pricey when i have to ship it is uh new p s probably be like 20 pounds or something
i'll figure it out probably it's probably going to cost me most more to ship it than anything
we'll figure it out all right everyone so what's i get for the morning
well almost 40 minutes yeah so i tell you once i get to ebay it then then often the time
just flies by as i'm working on everything all right so you have a uh good wednesday we're on the hump day
But it's less of a hump day because you didn't have Monday to work.
And then we'll be back on a weekend again soon.
All right.
So everyone, have a great day.
I'll talk to you later.
Bye.
