podcast audio YouTube Video I saw this movie on Thursday, April 10, 2025. There are spoilers in this review. I’ve heard on the internet how Rami Malek almost seems alien-like in his appearance. This, coupled with his performance in the Mr. Robot show, makes him perfect for The Amateur. He plays CIA analyst Charles Heller. At the beginning of the film, his wife is on a business trip in London; terrorist activity takes place during her visit, and she is murdered. Heller then uses his intelligence to solve his wife's murder and get revenge while on the run from his employer. This was really well done, as I felt tense several times while watching The Amateur. In the film, Rami Malek plays a character who aspires to be a field agent. This is hinted at in the first act while talking to Jon Bernthal, who plays this dude-bro agent in several ongoing operations in the field. After the murder of his wife, his CIA superiors suggest Heller go home and mourn. But he feels the government entity ...

YouTube version December and January are strong sales months on eBay, as they are the holiday season.  Before getting into my items sold for these two months, I wanted to discuss my sourcing methods.  I sell my stuff—items I've owned and no longer use. I work in a hotel and receive lost and found items guests leave behind. If the guest hasn't claimed the item within 90 days, the lost and found items are returned to the employee who found the item. Gifts and items guests give me(I didn't mention this in the video). My brother works in a college and also receives lost and found items. Once he's accumulated a box's worth of items, he sends them to me. I give him $40 for each box. My sourcing costs are low. The storage area where I store my eBay items costs $146 per month. My packing supplies are minimal, but I spend $140 per year or less. These are the items I sold in my eBay store for December 2024. The first item I sold was on December 7.  These purple, slim fit, sto...

These are some of my recent game streams on Twitch.  You can also watch them on YouTube. Within the last few months,  I’ve  discovered these YouTube channels discussing games on sale for specific platforms. My criteria (for my own purchases)is that the games should have great reviews and be under $10.  Promenade fit that bill.  I played some of the intro levels in this recent video and found it enjoyable.  Promenade is more of a platformer.  It is the kind of game many of us played as kids(and adults), having roots in games like Super Mario Brothers.   It’s  colorful and not too stressful.   I’m  still learning the mechanics.  Find out what Promenade is about here. I’m  continuing my playthrough of Wolfenstein 2 on the Steam Deck and  I'm  determined to make it the first game I complete on the handheld.  My eyes are not what they used to be, and playing this game on the big screen is better th...

YouTube Video In this video above will hear/watch Jason G's spoiler review.  Mine is written below, including the box office. It started what seemed like a 90s-2000s superhero movie—incredible action scenes, with really cool special FX just for the heck of it. Something like 2003's Underworld with Kate Beckinsale comes to mind—style over substance. I wasn’t crazy about this. I’ve said this in my other Venom reviews for parts 1 and 2, which date back to 2018; I don’t know if it’s Tom Hardy’s accent because he is playing Venom and Eddie Brock, but I still can’t fully understand what he’s saying at times, especially when he's playing Venom. It's better in this 3rd chapter but not perfect. Interesting actors to see in this movie were Chiwetel Ejiofor and Rhys Ifans. Both were previously in Marvel movies, where they played different characters.  Rhys Ifans played the Lizard in Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man, and Chiwetel Ejiofor was Baron Mordo in Doctor Strange.  Funny en...

YouTube Video Written script from the video. Steven Bartlett recently interviewed Jimmy Donaldson, AKA Mr. Beast' on his podcast 'Diary of a CEO.' I've never watched a Mr. Beast video on YouTube, but I recently finished season 1 of Beast Games on Amazon Prime and thoroughly enjoyed it.   In the interview, Mr. Bartlett asks Jimmy questions that make him reflect on his life. Jimmy says multiple times that he felt like an outcast in his younger years(ages 11-13) because he wanted to be a YouTuber, and nobody around him seemed to be into doing the same. He eventually met people who shared that same interest, propelling him to go even further down his path of being a successful content creator. I did some introspection on how this applies to my life. I'm so grateful to have dance/party friends who like the same music(dancehall reggae) and dances I do. I have known some of these people for nearly 15+ years, and they have amplified this interest for me. I often tell a few ...

  I use the DJay Pro app for all my mixtapes. In the app, there is a feature called 'Looper Packs' where the Djay Pro software will use the sounds in these packs to line up the bpm(beats per minute) and play alongside whichever song the user plays. I got a kick out of these as it allows one to make remixes on the fly. This is where the 'Looper Packs' option is located on the DJay Pro app I've done it a few times in the past. You can listen to an example in my August 2024 Dancehall Mixtape( click here for that )at the 24-minute mark, where I do so with Jquan's 'Chakka.'  YouTuber Justin Spiegel has an excellent channel where he talks tips, tricks, and observations about the Djay Pro app. In this particular video, he mentioned Remixlive; my ears perked up. I didn't know there were apps that specialized in these looper packs.  After more research, YouTuber DJ Dre discussed using Remixlive with Novation's Launchpad X MIDI grid controller. The app is ...
