1:23AYeah, yeah, actually no, I did set it up. I set it up completely. Now I have Restream set up. I can immediately do 2, 2 places for free. And so I see it, and right now I’m just, um, essentially delete -- like, I had created like a recurring one. like stream for our community call every week and on the X at least. And I -- but I did it with OBS, so now I was renaming it.

1:51BOh, really?

3:39AI don’t think so. No, what? Do I like -- so I don’t really -- like, that’s what I was saying. Like, my -- I studied like psychology and philosophy in undergrad, and then I started doing my podcast about crypto. My like actual media hands-on skill set is very minimal. Okay, I appreciate that. I’m learning though, but I’m game to learn anything. I’m here. I learned lots about crypto and I’m game to pivot my attention elsewhere. So direct me and I will learn. There’s no learning curve too steep. I mean, it’s possible I’m in grad school for social work, or at least applying for grad school. I’d say it’s possible, like, yeah, I’d say honestly that’s like the most probable thing. But I don’t know, I’m really interested in doing community work here at home. I think it could be cool to look at how do we like platform more Black communities here in the US, like, and looping them into what we’re up to. I think education, like, if I were to go to grad school for social work, I’d be interested in counseling or like nonprofit administration, stuff in that domain, or like organizational social work.

8:12BHmm.

8:13AYeah, almost certainly, unless I go to Europe. I don’t see myself going to Africa to do my social work, but that could be cool. I guess like would have to vet programs, but even like doing like an MFA, like, and doing like writing could be interesting to me. But also, what am I gonna do at an MFA besides write? I think like my least practical degree I would get is like going to grad school for philosophy. But that’s like, you know, like how impractical can I go?

8:39BThe only thing what? No, it’s not. That’s why I said it.

9:24AI don’t want to be around alone.

9:28BThat would have been the one thing to go with. That was -- like, I just said --

9:33AAmen to that. Yeah, I wish I had taken some anthropology classes. That’s like a thing I really wish I’d taken even one class on. Like, I think, um, that’s cool, that’s cool. Yeah, that’s what Gabrielle studied. And go ahead, how was that? I’m sorry, I’m like trying to get my computer to unmute. You said they said you couldn’t get the paper because of what? Can you hear me? Uh, um, so I was actually wanted to ask you a question, uh, What’s your name again? 105. It’s nice to meet you, Douglas.

12:02BAwesome.

12:02ASo I’m trying to -- I’m at a coffee shop. They’re about to close. So I’m trying to schedule this live stream to be weekly on our X, and it’s saying that I can’t do that because it needs to be And it must be scheduled with a media studio source, and, uh, like Restream isn’t a media studio source. Do you know what that -- what that means? Or Aziz, do you know? No. Yeah, I’m trying to set it up to be like a weekly recurring livestream. I’m gonna ask ChatGPT. I take a lot of screenshots and drop them in ChatGPT. Okay, so maybe I have to have it set up as a schedule. On Restream first is what you’re saying. Okay, thank you. Yeah, I’m trying to see if there’s a way for me to just schedule this because that would be ideal. Yeah, I mean, you’re saying Restream is like the, the industry-grade thing. I think I’d rather just become competent here.

14:40BOkay.

14:59AUm, I don’t really want my camera on.

15:01BJust continue.

15:10AOkay, I’m posting this straight. Oh, okay, okay, okay. It’s telling me what I need to do.

16:53BOkay, okay.

16:54ASo I gotta, I gotta come back from here. I’m getting ahead of myself. That’s what, that’s what ChatGPT is telling me. Um, sources. I have to add Restream to This sort of confused me what this is. Quite confused, but creating source. Oh, you saw the X live? I’m crying. That’s nice. That means it’s working. What’s up, Peter?

17:33BHow are you doing?

17:47ADaniel’s on another call for Aquari right now. Bayo is traveling back to Abuja from Lagos. I think he’s still on the road. I can look at his location, but I’m not sure exactly. I know Generic and Jet are both planning to jump on at the top of the hour, or at least Generic is, right? So we can go through with Aziz the content from Eat Safari that we do have, as well as discuss his livestream vision and some other stuff. But yeah, Aziz, if you’re not busy, I think it’d be nice actually for you to talk about your livestream vision with this guy. Douglas, who’s here because he has a livestream background. But how are you doing, Peter? I don’t mean to throw you away. It’s nice of you to join.

26:05BUm, yeah, you’re audible.

26:15AI think honestly I’m, uh, I’m not 100% present. I’m like trying to -- I’m like learning about this OBS stuff, so I’m not 100% present to To be honest with you.

32:12BHi y’all, we are closing in 7 minutes. Thank you.
