8:56
Speaker 1: Before we get into more serious issues, another class today, sorry, sorry, next class, but I spent a lot of time over the weekend.
9:05
Speaker 1: I've been getting a call, so look to Never lady by the name of Majo.
9:08
Speaker 1: Right, I had to tell her about Majo.
9:09
Speaker 1: Majo is a woman who I meet through the you know the parang line I used to have.
9:14
Speaker 1: You know, I mean, I tell her lady parang Side, one by one, people set a pass away and things, so they all boys and then move on and a part of it, a part of real life.
9:24
Speaker 1: Now for those of us who in the 40s, the late 30s, the early 40s, wherever we see transition and this is the bridge age, I didn't know, I didn't know when I become this age I find like I feel like I still was used to feeling I was young, not my body, just my being, my body feeling it.
9:39
Speaker 1: But my being is feeling the same way as when I was 20.
9:41
Speaker 1: You know what I mean not feeling, no different.
9:43
Speaker 1: I was talking to her partner recently and he tell me he say his son is 18 now.
9:47
Speaker 1: He say when I walk in the sun I see woman watching me, me realize my son.
9:52
Speaker 1: They're watching them.
9:52
Speaker 1: The time pass but we had a bridge kind of age.
9:57
Speaker 1: We had a transition age between the People who laid the path for us and the people who we had to lay the path for, between the youths and the experienced Right.
10:06
Speaker 1: We write in his zone and Majo is a woman who we used to go by all the time, every time she ever had a birthday, she ever had a little lime, she was the invite us home by her hand.
10:15
Speaker 1: We go there and play the same songs Every time we tell the same jokes Just a little fun and family and vibes.
10:21
Speaker 1: You know what I mean and I realize I drop in the battle as the transition guy.
10:26
Speaker 1: I drop in the battle as he 40 something else, because she always come in metal, come down.
10:31
Speaker 1: She say, boy, you know when I have a little lime and I have a little lime and it doesn't come no way.
10:35
Speaker 1: I say Majo is here, but they are coming, regardless of what happened and who always.
10:40
Speaker 1: And he seen too.
10:40
Speaker 1: So I say you know what?
10:43
Speaker 1: It's easy to go and stand up there and play for people by yourself, regardless of if it's friends, family or strangers.
10:47
Speaker 1: It's always nice to have a little accompaniment in music.
10:49
Speaker 1: So I say you know what?
10:50
Speaker 1: I hope you enjoy the road and things.
10:52
Speaker 1: I ain't do much for the Christmas.
10:54
Speaker 1: Let me go by the margin and play some music and I'll tell you I enjoyed a little lime, I enjoyed a little sweat.
11:01
Speaker 1: We play some nice little songs, songs that I remember, that I know, and we had a nice little time.
11:07
Speaker 1: Don't get it back yet.
11:09
Speaker 1: And it reminds me of something too, because the simplicity of that lime, in other words, you just call people, you know friends and family, you pour some tea in the yard and everybody have a time and you know the music End up being the glue that keep everything together.
11:25
Speaker 1: You have a bottle of white oak there and a bottle of punchin' when that, done it, done Majo, make coffee.
11:29
Speaker 1: You come out because we lime till Too late in the night for me.
11:33
Speaker 1: But that is where the lime is and it have a simple way, them things just come together.
11:38
Speaker 1: And it reminds me I'm talking to myself a little bit, but it reminds me to keep things uncomplicated.
11:43
Speaker 1: Because if I had to have a birthday party no, as I've been trying to do for the past few years, I always trying to figure out Well, I had to get a bar, it had to have Scotch Whisky, malibu wine, bares.
11:54
Speaker 1: I just thinking about how everybody could be happy and comfortable and do as much as I could do, and you know what I mean.
12:00
Speaker 1: I had to get a DJ and just remind me that, listen, none of them.
12:03
Speaker 1: Things really don't matter.
12:04
Speaker 1: What it matter is that we come together and they think about friends and family and love.
12:10
Speaker 1: Ones is the same thing.
12:11
Speaker 1: Like us, when I go by Majo, I don't care what it have.
12:13
Speaker 1: It don't matter to me what it have.
12:15
Speaker 1: If I reach and rum done, I drink water, you know what I mean.
12:19
Speaker 1: If coke's done it chase with Whatever, whatever, it really don't matter.
12:23
Speaker 1: What matter really is the coming together and the camaraderie and thing.
12:26
Speaker 1: I see something I ain't seen a long time.
12:29
Speaker 1: I remember when, back in the day, this remind me of the one by the name of Mummy Janet, a family Friend.
12:37
Speaker 1: I don't know what Mummy Janet is, Aunt, she's a baby.
12:41
Speaker 1: She said to all of you when we were small and one of the things that for some reason stick out in my we used to have this home to her, but somehow I remember this from by Mummy Janet more than anywhere else Remember when you buy our orchard long time which we used to get on Sunday, by the way, the big orchard, not the little small one, but now these turn have it the big orchard In the Tetra Pak.
13:00
Speaker 1: When they're done, they fill up that with water and they put that and dize the ice Again.
13:05
Speaker 1: Simplicity match.
13:06
Speaker 1: Bring out one of them.
13:07
Speaker 1: Think she knocked that with a backer or a pot spoon, and everybody had ice to make their little life.
13:11
Speaker 1: Now we had to buy this fridge.
13:13
Speaker 1: Now, god forbid, they had to open your fridge, though, to get ice out.
13:17
Speaker 1: Everybody want ice maker on the outside Of the fridge.
13:20
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
13:21
Speaker 1: Again, I told myself Simplicity, simplicity.
13:26
Speaker 1: Can we go back to that?
13:29
Speaker 1: Can I go back to that where life just Simple and cheaper and all this sort of Fruit that we're trying to put that really at the end, and they don't matter, because who cares where the ice Come from.
13:40
Speaker 1: When they lime nice, especially with them Tetra Pak ice like they don't melt at all, they don't melt at all.
13:44
Speaker 1: They're a big, big block.
13:45
Speaker 1: But when they take one big block ice and they paint it, drink it hold it out for much longer Than these little Fridge ice.
13:52
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
13:52
Speaker 1: Fridge ice and things don't work so great for drinks, but it's just a reminder.
13:56
Speaker 1: That had a great time the over the weekend.
13:59
Speaker 1: It brought me onto thinking about something Right, and I have a class going on now about Globalization and I started to realize listen, all the things we talk about in class.
14:10
Speaker 1: You could find so much.
14:11
Speaker 1: Because the idea behind our globalization class Is to show you how the world come in closer together and it affects Business and business dealings right.
14:21
Speaker 1: So the idea is this when you look at the removal Things like trade barriers, trade barriers is usually well, two categories Are trade barriers really.
14:32
Speaker 1: One is the monetary one and one is how to do it Non-monetary, so like Duties and things.
14:38
Speaker 1: Talking about that here, what?
14:40
Speaker 1: Thanks to everybody who tell me web sources is better, because a repose half Killa's murder with price and taking three, four weeks to come in and finally sign up for our web source address On Amazon within one week that buy a door step by web source.
14:53
Speaker 1: Thank you very much for people who tell me about web source.
14:55
Speaker 1: But you know, when you check your bill it is surely shipping and handling and all them things, but it's show you taxes for duties.
15:02
Speaker 1: All that is where you call tariff barriers, right.
15:04
Speaker 1: So when they say barrier, what they mean is that it make it hard to bring in something.
15:07
Speaker 1: It make it a little harder If there are no kind of duties or nothing.
15:11
Speaker 1: Then we will be important and we will talk about why them duties are important and why column seven percent Important at some point in time.
15:19
Speaker 1: But that is what they talking about.
15:20
Speaker 1: And then the non-tariff barriers for those of us who remember Thing like the negative list where you couldn't bring in Apples and grapes back any day.
15:27
Speaker 1: So that was what.
15:28
Speaker 1: So those things make the world come closer together.
15:31
Speaker 1: And then here are things like unifying currencies and one common Customs policy In different regions and all these things.
15:39
Speaker 1: So we supposed to be in CSME right now.
15:41
Speaker 1: Right, caribbean single market economy Bringing all the Caribbean islands together, and it should be one market we headed towards.
15:48
Speaker 1: Are we discussing one single Caribbean dollar yet?
15:51
Speaker 1: Or we still discussing All these different kind of monopoly Monies and so on?
15:56
Speaker 1: I don't know.
15:57
Speaker 1: But the point that we talk about and this particular class are doing, they have assignment to do on sustainability, because sustainability is one of the more popular topics Now in business, particularly in first world countries, right?
16:09
Speaker 1: So these degrees that I lecture and they're from England, so a lot of the examples and so on that we use would be coming out of Places like England and the European Union and so on.
16:19
Speaker 1: The biggest brands and we will, a lot of them are from the states.
16:23
Speaker 1: So you find that the US business Landscape.
16:26
Speaker 1: Even when I study, when I do my masters.
16:28
Speaker 1: Back in the day we used to study the US business landscape.
16:30
Speaker 1: I remember one little book we had by In our course that had covered Things like Art of Lockjack and the great things he was able to do with associated brands and a few other local entrepreneurs.
16:41
Speaker 1: The man who runs Sasha Cosmetics, I want to say is Maharaj I hope I'm not right Muhammad family, who would have Started SMG Lila and so on and so on, but mostly he studied in the US landscape and the sustainability thing Is a big part of what business is in the US.
16:57
Speaker 1: No, because if you're using Sustainable business practice, when they say sustainable business practice they mean it's all encompassing, to mean Environmentally friendly and taking care Of mankind and the Floran fauna and all these things they take care of, the animals they take care of Doing things to harm the environment.
17:14
Speaker 1: So it's sustainable in that if we continue To do business this way, in the long run the world will continue to become a better place and continue to develop Rather than doing business in our way.
17:25
Speaker 1: Where we are.
17:25
Speaker 1: Look at the Mining situation.
17:29
Speaker 1: People are just Not mining, quarrying, people are just blasts, leaves, the hillside Baird and all of a sudden they're flooding.
17:37
Speaker 1: And not a sustainable practice, because if you do that in the long run We've got problems right.
17:42
Speaker 1: So just stand in line by Marge and say don't talk and just Enjoying the, the simplicity of it and the spontaneity of it and the understanding that we could do it without anybody having to put out no certain money.
17:57
Speaker 1: So nobody hurts when we all come together and have a good time, which is what we know traditionally right.
18:03
Speaker 1: But it made me realize that there are a lot of things and I was talking about this in class last week too a lot of things that we learning in these master's degrees and these foreign degrees.
18:15
Speaker 1: It's things that we know already, because when they tell me about sustainability, every house you're going in Trinidad and Tobago, how about a hundred plastic bags inside a plastic bag?
18:26
Speaker 1: So you can't tell me about recycling.
18:30
Speaker 1: Everybody use to keep all the butter containers, some more than others, some more than others.
18:35
Speaker 1: They have all the butter containers they're having their whole life.
18:37
Speaker 1: So it's a little boy, pablo, boy Pablo, saying yesterday he went by and he threw it all in butter container.
18:42
Speaker 1: He said the butter container and them get white.
18:45
Speaker 1: He said now, man, throw it is, get some fresh ones and come again.
18:49
Speaker 1: But again, when you think about it, then butter containers that we keep and use all the time Guys think that we could that would have been disposed of in the environment and might not be biodegradable and all these kind of things, right.
19:01
Speaker 1: So even when I hear Massey and them telling me well, bag and we sustainable.
19:06
Speaker 1: I think we practice a lot of these things about sustainability Already.
19:10
Speaker 1: We don't label it with these things and have the definitions that go behind it.
19:15
Speaker 1: But how much of us have a kitchen garden, or how do we pick our own mint leaf, pick our own shadow, our own thyme, all them kind of things.
19:22
Speaker 1: So it's like we have a way of living here that we we're giving up openly for so-called development.
19:28
Speaker 1: Let me use my example.
19:30
Speaker 1: Right, you're giving up the marjo kind of lime for what you think is a fancy kind of lime, when both of them had the same level of fulfillment.
19:38
Speaker 1: All they're doing is spending more money to reach to the same point.
19:42
Speaker 1: Stay with me, right, I'm going somewhere when I look at as a child, he's always had a drink called USA Pop.
19:48
Speaker 1: Oh, let me remember USA Pop.
19:50
Speaker 1: Well, it would like the hills.
19:51
Speaker 1: If you remember USA Pop, you have pains in your joints right now and you do USA Pop thing.
19:55
Speaker 1: It used to come in a kind of can thing.
19:57
Speaker 1: We used to sit on and scrape that on the ground, scrape it Sometimes it's a long time ago to scrape it for and the top used to pop off.
20:03
Speaker 1: And now we have a cup and that was a scene on the block when it come out in some gyms and you say Pop cup a man.
20:09
Speaker 1: No, well, all right, we're going to do it.
20:10
Speaker 1: You know we used to do that.
20:11
Speaker 1: We used to take hardware material and make toy.
20:14
Speaker 1: We used to take cabbages and bust that and make that into our enjoyment.
20:18
Speaker 1: Now you have to go buy fireworks and spend thousands of dollars to do the things that we used to do for next to free.
20:25
Speaker 1: It's kind of weird.
20:26
Speaker 1: No, you get a little well picture partner.
20:29
Speaker 1: You say back in the day, but it's a paint can we used to use, and your ball and I put some cabbages and I say like that, boom.
20:38
Speaker 1: So again we abandon any module line, we'll be spending less money, right, and we go in and deliberately spend money and the outcome is exactly the same.
20:51
Speaker 1: It make him wonder, you know.
20:52
Speaker 1: It bring in my whole life into question Again.
20:56
Speaker 1: In St James there are places where you go know it as courts now that used to be juicy corner.
21:00
Speaker 1: Right the corner along circular road and western main road, opposite the police barracks, there are places named in juicy factory that used to do bottle recycle or bottling.
21:09
Speaker 1: For one of them, soft drink must be cannings or juicy, I guess.
21:12
Speaker 1: And we know about.
21:14
Speaker 1: We know about buying things in a little shop any area, by way, and taking that bottle now and carry back.
21:20
Speaker 1: I remember collecting them.
21:21
Speaker 1: Pepsi bottles.
21:22
Speaker 1: You say get 25 cents or Pepsi bottle.
21:24
Speaker 1: When I carry back four Pepsi bottles I get too fudge.
21:27
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
21:28
Speaker 1: He can't go wrong.
21:29
Speaker 1: He can't go wrong with his kind of deal.
21:31
Speaker 1: So when they telling me now about supporting local and buying, I forget what I was listening to on a podcast the other day about not just buying from the big conglomerate and the big brand name places, but also just supporting your domestic business and those kind of things.
21:48
Speaker 1: They have a word for it and all they go.
21:50
Speaker 1: Help me with the word right.
21:51
Speaker 1: All you know I answer right.
21:52
Speaker 1: This is the outside of sustainability.
21:54
Speaker 1: They're talking a lot about this idea of localization and buying local, but I think it's myself like that's exactly what you used to do.
22:02
Speaker 1: I used to do that all that was how we used to live.
22:05
Speaker 1: We used to buy by Miss Millie and buy around the corner here and buy around there.
22:09
Speaker 1: That is what we buy with snacks and you know, sugar, cake and fudge and thing with somebody who ride in the area.
22:14
Speaker 1: In other words, you're making your area, you're helping to develop your area.
22:18
Speaker 1: If you are plumbing thing, you go by Owen.
22:20
Speaker 1: If you are electrical, you go by Barbara.
22:23
Speaker 1: If you wear your TV fix, you go by Larry.
22:26
Speaker 1: That's another thing.
22:27
Speaker 1: I was reading a whole thing about repurposing.
22:30
Speaker 1: I read in the strategic class, you know, as if I just studied this thing, but I talking about it already in me and it already in the people who I talking to.
22:41
Speaker 1: Because when you talk about repurposing, we as the kings are retiring church clothes and make it home clothes.
22:46
Speaker 1: You had a long pants.
22:47
Speaker 1: You think you cut off that and now you have a short pants.
22:49
Speaker 1: That is home clothes.
22:50
Speaker 1: You all should have turned into work.
22:54
Speaker 1: So in terms of repurposing, we also have a strong repair culture locally here.
23:01
Speaker 1: I think up to today we still have a very strong repair culture in that and the most simple level.
23:07
Speaker 1: You remember when you had a rubber slipper.
23:08
Speaker 1: You had a little rubber ding ding when that bus where you used to do buy a next one, absolutely not I don't know if it was coming out or not, having or lack but you run a small nail in the bottom of that and your slipper good to go for a while again.
23:23
Speaker 1: Sometimes your heel is on the ground, sometimes your heel on the ground, but again the slipper serve the same purpose, the same purpose that the Prada, the Ferragamo and all them kind of things, and the Nike and the Adidas and the OnCloud and all these brands, the same thing.
23:41
Speaker 1: So again, more and more we spend and more and more money to reach to the same point.
23:46
Speaker 1: I was thinking about the fridge and them thing too, and I started to.
23:49
Speaker 1: There's a point in the course where we talk about something called built in obsolescence and all you tell me for your experience in that too, tell me how long your mother and them fridge last, or your grandmother and them fridge, how long that fridge last them or the washing machine.
24:05
Speaker 1: Remember the repair culture was part of we since back then.
24:07
Speaker 1: Right, you might have somebody come in to fix it, often because it breaking down, but it breaking down because it's 10 and 15 years old.
24:15
Speaker 1: So look at papa, our grandfather in South, right, this man fridge.
24:21
Speaker 1: The fridge is starting to rust on the outside but the inside walking the ice making inside like no.
24:29
Speaker 1: So the body of the fridge starting to go and the fridge, the guts working, whereas we now we live in the reverse.
24:37
Speaker 1: Talking to myself, right, when I say we are mean me, we live in the reverse where it seems as though the outside of the fridge and how it looking matter more than if the fridge cooling and it making ice All you go tell me for a loan.
24:49
Speaker 1: But the fact that the fridges are stainless steel and a double door and this handle and them, things start to become more important.
24:55
Speaker 1: And the reality is that the fridge not last in your 10 years.
24:59
Speaker 1: When I buy a fridge year to day, I mean it's in the other day, against this is origin man, how old the things we have is.
25:05
Speaker 1: I mean she complain and she just remind me like I just think every time I buy something I feel like now now by it and she's like, yeah, that's like 70, 80 years old and remember you as like, oh God, jesus.
25:15
Speaker 1: But the reality is this when I buy that fridge, I thought I done by fridge in life.
25:21
Speaker 1: I thought I.
25:24
Speaker 1: When I grew up in St James we had a fridge.
25:27
Speaker 1: That is it, punto final.
25:28
Speaker 1: We had a stove.
25:29
Speaker 1: That stove last about for my whole life till I move After.
25:33
Speaker 1: That stove was good and then they eventually lose and you know too, we had a stove and one burner gone.
25:39
Speaker 1: We just work with the next three burner.
25:41
Speaker 1: We keep that stove until it only had one burner working on.
25:46
Speaker 1: It was an electric stove, right, but you know the electric stove with the ring coil, the coil then that kind of way at a pot knife and prop it up and I'm guarantee and we just keep them thing.
25:56
Speaker 1: But I'm not sure if we are not sure if we practicing the best way.
26:01
Speaker 1: It's like we get a fellow in class say this way he said that we give up the things that we have and we give up the way that we live to seek a better life, right, and when we gave it up, somebody's selling it back to us now, the things we used to have for free.
26:18
Speaker 1: We allow somebody to sell it back to us now and put us in a worst state.
26:23
Speaker 1: All of us grew up where we used to go market and them thing and buy food and thing, and that again is supported domestic or the local business thing.
26:31
Speaker 1: But also when you leave to go any market where you so walk with your three for market bag or remember the market bag, and then you have three for market bag, you go your full market bag.
26:40
Speaker 1: So the idea of sustainability, recycling, repurposing, we've known that for our whole life, right, our whole life.
26:48
Speaker 1: And then the one that I always talk about and bottom a lot, is this organic food movement.
26:55
Speaker 1: I was asking the classes, you guys see, but free range chicken, what is that?
27:02
Speaker 1: How come?
27:04
Speaker 1: How come somebody could sell we peppercorn and them fellas could sell we free range chicken?
27:09
Speaker 1: It's a hot thing.
27:11
Speaker 1: We grew up in places where it had chicken and there was free range.
27:15
Speaker 1: It had a cub but then fall never used to sleep in a cub.
27:18
Speaker 1: Then fall never lock up in a cub.
27:20
Speaker 1: They had a lock up the fall and they come in here and say like what the hell are them guys Fall sleeping in the tree?
27:25
Speaker 1: So the thing about it is like the organic nature.
27:28
Speaker 1: We are common fall all in life and I see nothing now talking about organic egg when we are common fall egg making here.
27:35
Speaker 1: So again, it's like we the marjoram versus my lime.
27:39
Speaker 1: You know what I mean we giving up the things that we have.
27:42
Speaker 1: We want to live in a place now where it's residential and it's gated and it's nice, and have a random with that tree bedroom and air conditioning out and tile and all your porcelain tile and glass fixtures and whatever it is.
27:53
Speaker 1: All them kind of things is what we looking for.
27:55
Speaker 1: And to go in that area now where you can't mind no fall at all, although Salute has ever fell inside by we here who have fall.
28:01
Speaker 1: He haven't fall right, but it's not socially acceptable to have a whole set of fall in your yard and not socially acceptable to have a random thing to kill to eat every week.
28:11
Speaker 1: It's more socially acceptable to just dial 2850777.
28:17
Speaker 1: And they come and they bring it on a bike for you and you get your fall.
28:22
Speaker 1: So but again, he grew up in a place where if you wanted fall, you just, you just catch a fall.
28:26
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
28:27
Speaker 1: He killed me for catching.
28:28
Speaker 1: That was the same organic thing.
28:30
Speaker 1: Now that we paying a pong and a crong for All this come back to mind against the backdrop of me, seeing a fellow, a guy who's going to gym with a DJ called raw fusion.
28:39
Speaker 1: He was posting, I think, with Ezekiel bread, right, is a flowerless bread.
28:45
Speaker 1: It's good for vegans and them thing too.
28:47
Speaker 1: So suppose that no air going them guys.
28:49
Speaker 1: And although all this, to be honest with you guys buy it and I eat it today.
28:51
Speaker 1: I know that he put a person eating, but it's flower free bread.
28:55
Speaker 1: A man like me who like bread a lot.
28:58
Speaker 1: If I could stay away from the flower a little bit, I could lost a pong or at least maintain where.
29:02
Speaker 1: So I just try to buy the Ezekiel bread.
29:04
Speaker 1: I see he put eating as $120 for a bread when you check it online is about 6 US for the bread If you're buying it there.
29:12
Speaker 1: Another nice loot.
29:14
Speaker 1: Nigel Nicholson from Star Radio was saying that he went, he traveled there and he forget to buy some to bring back.
29:21
Speaker 1: Then we come to come to buying bread to bring back because he price a bread skyrocketing so high.
29:26
Speaker 1: So it's just that that was is interesting revelation I had and to be honest with you, I'm not sure if the revelation was just because the white hook had run out and I started to drink punchin.
29:37
Speaker 1: So you know, sometimes, sometimes substances, substances is having much deeper thought than your plan.
29:42
Speaker 1: To be in a substance is carrier, carrier, wait.
29:45
Speaker 1: But it's going to ties back into what we were talking about last week.
29:48
Speaker 1: It's your boys and them in KFC.
29:49
Speaker 1: I see the KFC boycott looking like it growing strong.
29:52
Speaker 1: Should I applaud that?
29:53
Speaker 1: It looking like a great channel?
29:55
Speaker 1: I tell you, price is not enough for you to boycott.
29:58
Speaker 1: But if people feeling culturally offended or or or or, feeling like your marks was really marks was racist.
30:04
Speaker 1: Well, I think, although they again they tried to distance the cell from Alex Moutier but the name that is a very hard thing to to move from with a change in perception of because of what was said and I see they come out a little to the final as a two piece of chicken to set a fries or whatever it is, and no drink.
30:21
Speaker 1: People upset about that.
30:22
Speaker 1: So it would be interesting to see again how long the boycott last.
30:27
Speaker 1: And again some people people talking to me about the episode and stuff.
30:31
Speaker 1: The intention is not to stay anybody away from buying the little fallen.
30:34
Speaker 1: You buy a chicken and enjoy your life.
30:37
Speaker 1: Yes, you do what you do, you do the organic thing and come on fall Mary's in a fall.
30:43
Speaker 1: But if that's what you want, you do it.
30:46
Speaker 1: You're the other, satisfy your needs and your family needs and them kind of thing.
30:49
Speaker 1: But it's just.
30:50
Speaker 1: It's just.
30:51
Speaker 1: The alternative is what I presented to, not just.
30:56
Speaker 1: I saw Warren Buffett talk about investing one time and he says he's only investing businesses that he like and businesses that he understands.
31:03
Speaker 1: So if you like a product, you'll invest in it.
31:05
Speaker 1: So I saying is just, basically, if you're like prestige holdings.
31:09
Speaker 1: If you like prestige holdings products as much as I do, maybe just take a $10 every now and again and buy a share or two.
31:14
Speaker 1: You know me, you could.
31:15
Speaker 1: You could start.
31:16
Speaker 1: You could start with smaller monks.
31:17
Speaker 1: You could literally open up brokerage accounts and buy one share if you want to.
31:20
Speaker 1: There's no minimum order.
31:21
Speaker 1: Don't let them tell you it's a minimum order night ago.
31:23
Speaker 1: Of course you have a little percentage only $10.
31:25
Speaker 1: But if you take $100 every month and you buy some prestige holding shares, well, for the C1200 dollars in prestige holding shares at the end of the year but remember that every time you buy it, if it's $10, you have 10 shares give or take.
31:38
Speaker 1: So by the end of the year you have 120 prestige holding shares.
31:41
Speaker 1: If you do that for 10 and 15 and 20 years, you're good to go.
31:44
Speaker 1: I always remember George Umballa Joseph.
31:46
Speaker 1: When I first got interested and understood what the stock exchange was, I was told to miss Alina, a constituent tranquil right.
31:55
Speaker 1: She had set up a when I was doing a levels in tranquil.
31:58
Speaker 1: She had set up a visit to the Trinidad and Tobago stock exchange.
32:03
Speaker 1: I think we walked down from tranquil and we went into the stock exchange and they talked to us about shares and stuff and that is what make me know you could buy shares and what it is, and I remember back then buying floor mill shares and TCL shares.
32:16
Speaker 1: I know how much money I'm making.
32:18
Speaker 1: I think I spent $400 in total.
32:20
Speaker 4: I don't think I spent any shares man.
32:22
Speaker 1: I'm going to sell that.
32:23
Speaker 1: No, you may not be selling that, but there's some little shares in each one, one of the simple notion that you must eat flour Despite what is the KL bread.
32:37
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, now that you see the price of the KL bread, you might well need to eat flour, no pun intended.
32:43
Speaker 1: And cementing you know cement.
32:46
Speaker 1: You had to live somewhere and you had to eat.
32:48
Speaker 1: My simple mind at must be about 17, 18 years old.
32:52
Speaker 1: That's what I was thinking at the time and I want to tell you, if I could, if my memory any good at all, my guess would be I pay about $4 for them shares, if I remember because the $400, I would be probably trying to buy 100 shares or 50 shares in each one.
33:15
Speaker 1: Every one of them was about $4, if I remember right.
33:19
Speaker 1: I could go back and check now to see what them price, share prices, might be.
33:22
Speaker 1: Now Let me see if I could find NFM.
33:26
Speaker 1: How are we going to find these things?
33:27
Speaker 1: Are they making the stock exchange a little hard?
33:30
Speaker 1: Oh God, well, I would be losing money because NFM shares is $2, it looks like.
33:35
Speaker 1: So that didn't work out great.
33:36
Speaker 1: Let me see what TCL shares looking like.
33:38
Speaker 1: Oh, tcl.
33:42
Speaker 1: You're stuck inside the little pace in him.
33:48
Speaker 1: Oh well, two terrible examples.
33:52
Speaker 1: Guy really lost his money both ways because both of them is about $2 and something.
33:56
Speaker 1: So there was $4 then.
33:58
Speaker 1: But the one I wanted to guide you to that Umbalo was talking about was Republic Bank.
34:02
Speaker 1: I think you'll see that as RFH, republic Bank Financial Holdings Limited, I believe, is where it's sung For, yeah, republic Bank, republic Bank shares is now $120, right, he said.
34:15
Speaker 1: When Republic issued shares, if the price I remember right, he said the initial issue was $2 a share and he buys some shares there.
34:23
Speaker 1: You go and work out what the percentage difference is on that and if you had, if you had, if you had spent $100 in that every month for a year, as hard as $100 might have been to come by then look at what.
34:35
Speaker 1: Look at what the difference would have been now to then.
34:38
Speaker 1: I also remember, as a more recent example, full citizens.
34:44
Speaker 1: They still here, fci is full citizens, full citizens bank had offered shares, as I want to say, at $21.
34:54
Speaker 1: You remember the whole scandal where they offer local people shares that are different, sorry, employee shares that are different price and some employed by a whole to the shares and all them thing I want to say.
35:05
Speaker 1: It was $21 or $22.
35:06
Speaker 1: It had come out at Shares share prices $49.50.
35:09
Speaker 1: Now, and there's a more recent history.
35:15
Speaker 1: So the idea I talking about is not.
35:17
Speaker 1: I don't want to say boycott KFC or not boycott KFC.
35:20
Speaker 1: I don't have a position in this.
35:22
Speaker 1: If people feel they should boycott it because the statements they made, I could see why people go receive them as offensive.
35:29
Speaker 1: Or doubles men there's doubles men is playing important role in society.
35:32
Speaker 1: I ask them is usual doubles men and thing too?
35:33
Speaker 1: Because I find the doubles market does, and your roti market is the same thing.
35:39
Speaker 1: They don't evolve past a certain point.
35:42
Speaker 1: Right, I would try to say it would have been as offensive at Alex.
35:45
Speaker 1: Right, they don't evolve past a certain point, meaning there's not a single doubles vendor now who sell the doubles and give you a branded bag to tell you well, this is my doubles and work on their own brand recognition and grow the brand in any way.
35:59
Speaker 1: They content doing the same business model that they were done over the years and I have a few things to say about business models today.
36:06
Speaker 1: I'm from the great Mariano Brown, but they seem content that way.
36:11
Speaker 1: They also.
36:12
Speaker 1: They don't do much the business process or the business format.
36:15
Speaker 1: The most innovation that over the years was to put coconut chutney and mango chutney and about five different kind of thing.
36:20
Speaker 1: They don't seem to be trying much, you know.
36:23
Speaker 1: I mean I guess the business works.
36:25
Speaker 1: Good power to you.
36:25
Speaker 1: If you're business, then it making money.
36:27
Speaker 1: Who's me to tell you different?
36:29
Speaker 1: But you don't find a branded bag for doubles or roti nowhere.
36:32
Speaker 1: So when I walk out to the boxer KFC, I walk out to the whole advertisement for KFC.
36:38
Speaker 1: Everywhere ago the bag branded.
36:40
Speaker 1: The box brand is the same paper bag KFC again.
36:42
Speaker 1: You're thinking I don't know, but they had the KFC name on it and everybody brand up.
36:46
Speaker 1: So when I isn't KFC now and you say, boy, you're getting hungry, you're feeling from nobody, not a taxi waiting, if I use buying doubles and things at the taxi.
36:53
Speaker 1: Well, how that tasting way, get at it.
36:55
Speaker 1: And nothing to associate yourself with the location or the name or anything like that.
37:00
Speaker 1: Lack of innovation for me to come from what he was saying in terms of making stores that you could sit down and eat some good at the why.
37:09
Speaker 1: Why the hell every road shop is right to be hot.
37:11
Speaker 1: Why it has to be hot.
37:12
Speaker 1: I don't understand the pepper hot as going wings, routine snack or store the pepper hot and the place hot is a bad combination.
37:20
Speaker 1: Why it has to be hot With all the money you make over the air condition can't be that expensive to see you make a place comfortable.
37:29
Speaker 1: Why do you see them?
37:30
Speaker 1: They might be hot.
37:30
Speaker 1: Why every road to shop at our office chair, office chair, waiting room, office chair and half new road to shop in the country?
37:39
Speaker 1: Additionally, I can find a route to your doubles.
37:42
Speaker 1: Whoever delivery number that is delivered anything home by you, whoever drive through, whoever online payments, I can't find me.
37:49
Speaker 1: I know if it happened.
37:49
Speaker 1: I just I just saying I don't know.
37:51
Speaker 1: You might know that it have, but I don't know where it have.
37:54
Speaker 1: So I think he in some ways I understand the point he bring across with the lack of innovation and branding and those things.
38:02
Speaker 1: But that does not, that doesn't mean to me that the doubles that KFC means more to the country than doubles.
38:10
Speaker 1: I don't think it does.
38:11
Speaker 1: I think the doubles is more important to our country than KFC could ever be.
38:16
Speaker 1: But I guess it's how you, how you put things across on them kind of thing.
38:18
Speaker 1: If you put things across in a crude way like that.
38:20
Speaker 1: You will see empty stores and it wasn't interesting to see, as well as not just that the stores and them empty.
38:27
Speaker 1: You know the KFC outlets empty, what was interesting to see is how full Popeyes is.
38:32
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
38:33
Speaker 1: So what we do is we didn't, we didn't.
38:34
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem as though we.
38:36
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem as though we boycott and find a more sustainable way like do it home and them kind of thing.
38:44
Speaker 1: We just transfer the 1.3 billion to somebody else.
38:47
Speaker 1: Anyway, I had to deal with this, this devil and the angel thing.
38:51
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
38:51
Speaker 1: They are trying my best to stick to songs about women that are from women and uplifting for women.
39:00
Speaker 1: I could play one like that that I like a lot.
39:28
Speaker 3: But this is the original.
39:29
Speaker 3: David Romant, alongside Anthony Rose.
39:31
Speaker 3: I had a ball and I saw somebody crying.
39:53
Speaker 3: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
40:04
Speaker 3: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
40:15
Speaker 3: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
40:31
Speaker 1: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
40:34
Speaker 1: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
41:03
Speaker 1: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
41:12
Speaker 1: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
41:20
Speaker 1: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
41:57
Speaker 3: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
42:00
Speaker 3: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
42:26
Speaker 3: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
42:34
Speaker 3: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
42:53
Speaker 3: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
43:06
Speaker 3: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
43:11
Speaker 3: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
43:28
Speaker 3: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
43:39
Speaker 4: I just couldn't imagine what was happening.
43:55
Speaker 1: In serious news Inbert's heartened by IMF's positive outlook for Trinidad and Tobago.
43:59
Speaker 1: This is what I'm calling your boy, colm Inbert.
44:01
Speaker 1: I don't know why Leo is excited to hear about him.
44:03
Speaker 1: Finance Minister Colm Inbert said he is encouraged and heartened by conclusions drawn by the International Monetary Fund's mission staff, who found that Trinidad and Tobago's economic outlook is gaining momentum and is predicted to be a positive medium-term outlook.
44:18
Speaker 1: After the recent visit, an IMF staff team was in Port of Spain between February 28 and March 8,.
44:23
Speaker 1: All it brings is fellows on them.
44:24
Speaker 1: After kind of a meet with stakeholders, including government departments, private sector organizations and state institutions, they then produced an analysis of Trinidad's economic data and a company in statement containing its main conclusions and recommendations.
44:38
Speaker 1: The IMF, in its mission concluded statement, found that Trinidad's economy is undergoing gradual and sustained recovery for the first time in a decade.
44:48
Speaker 1: No, let me finish here.
44:50
Speaker 1: The IMF also concluded that the 2024 budget envelope is appropriate to support the domestic recovery and address infrastructure needs.
44:58
Speaker 1: The balance of risk in the medium-term is to the upside, stemming from additional new oil and gas projects and the implementation of planned structural reform which could boost growth Structural reform.
45:11
Speaker 1: The Ministry of Finance issued a media release on March 11, in which it is into a pretty deep IMF, as saying.
45:19
Speaker 1: In other words, the balance of probability is that our economy will continue to improve with sustained economic growth.
45:26
Speaker 1: So the IMF default statement is also on IMForg.
45:32
Speaker 1: For those of you who want to read food, this is from Newsday from Adrian Geonetti, andrew Geonetti.
45:45
Speaker 1: So the IMF is a troubling organization.
45:53
Speaker 1: It could be worrisome for countries like us who are in the developing side of the world.
46:03
Speaker 1: When I was in school, they used to call it Third World, but they don't say Third World again.
46:06
Speaker 1: I always used to ask myself when I was learning these things.
46:10
Speaker 1: They say it's our first world countries and third world countries and they never say no second world countries.
46:17
Speaker 1: I always used to interpret that as you cannot go from third to first, you have to pass through second.
46:24
Speaker 1: So what IMF doesn't know is that they have a gulf there that you cannot cross.
46:28
Speaker 1: They let you know that you are Third World and Third World.
46:30
Speaker 1: You shall remain.
46:31
Speaker 1: So little countries like Singapore that managed to.
46:34
Speaker 1: Would Singapore be classified as a first world country?
46:38
Speaker 1: Let me see I go to Google it right.
46:40
Speaker 1: Where is the best thing I could come up with?
46:42
Speaker 1: Let me see if chat GPT, go help me.
46:45
Speaker 1: A first world country.
46:47
Speaker 1: Well, it looked like.
46:57
Speaker 1: If they say the same thing I was saying before, they say Canada, sweden, australia, singapore, japan and France and Italy fall cleanly into the list of first world countries.
47:05
Speaker 1: So there was some point at which Singapore might have been on the third world side, but they reached the first world status.
47:12
Speaker 1: Now Some people saying that what we need in Trinidad to head towards first world status is some more draconian laws and a little bit of dictatorship for a little while so that we could clean up the place and get rid of the crime and all them types of things.
47:26
Speaker 1: I see a video going wrong on TikTok.
47:28
Speaker 1: You think so sad?
47:28
Speaker 1: A woman walking on Charlotte Street.
47:30
Speaker 1: She's just working in Tong and she's walking on Charlotte Street with her beaver and her hand, which the comments was focusing on how bad a decision that was.
47:39
Speaker 1: But I would appreciate how bad the country is if we're talking about how bad a decision that was.
47:44
Speaker 1: You walking on Charlotte Street and that man just snatched off your thing, off your hand and walk away.
47:48
Speaker 1: She was in shock, she said she started crying.
47:51
Speaker 1: People are wrong.
47:51
Speaker 1: They didn't do nothing.
47:52
Speaker 1: That's the thing you hear commonly here, with women especially.
47:55
Speaker 1: They snatched something from them and nobody in do nothing.
47:59
Speaker 1: And the reality is that we live in a country where, if I see that happen, my instincts might tell me do something.
48:06
Speaker 1: But when I do come home to my family after I try to do something, the whole place will say boy, you're stupid, you know I mean how you get yourself.
48:13
Speaker 1: Involved are four.
48:13
Speaker 1: They will say it's just her ban and but that's.
48:15
Speaker 1: I don't like to see them kind of advantage on her advantage.
48:18
Speaker 1: This thing and the woman so right in the video she make where she say you working hard for your things and sacrificing for your thing and somebody could just take it and walk away.
48:28
Speaker 1: I want to add to what she's saying too you working hard to get things that you now care where comfortable, I save up.
48:37
Speaker 1: And she said there's something that her grandmother and them passed on.
48:40
Speaker 1: So imagine who would ever be the person who make their purchase.
48:42
Speaker 1: Whenever you buy a piece of gold, nice face, if you spend a piece of money and you suppose to enjoy that wherever you work for and wherever you get.
48:48
Speaker 1: And you have it now and we in a place where I had to hide it because somebody coming for it and I fully well know that if somebody come for it and they get it, I care, do nothing about it, because she reach and she tell the police and the police say, well, the most we could do is we see him, we go, we go, stop him.
49:04
Speaker 1: And you know, I mean I knock any police because they probably right and they probably see so much of that.
49:10
Speaker 1: It's like we live in a country where them things it's craziness to think that that's what we waking up to every single day but again, first world versus to live in, right, and now they like us to say developed versus developing.
49:24
Speaker 1: I think they give us that to see we have hope, developing something better than to the world, to the world.
49:36
Speaker 1: Song like we stuck developing song like if we working on it.
49:39
Speaker 1: So the good news is that the IMF say we're working on it.
49:43
Speaker 1: The Question that comes to mind is the IMF's judgment about these types of things.
49:50
Speaker 1: Right, the IMF and them.
49:51
Speaker 1: They have a role to play in a call global governance, right, that sometimes could be, could be trouble.
49:57
Speaker 1: I was reading this week about Haiti having unrest and so on, and Haiti has been constantly in all kind of different issues, from Very, very small or manageable natural disasters anywhere else and he will become complete disasters in his Haiti because it lack of infrastructure.
50:18
Speaker 1: But we're going check to see how Institutions like the IMF and the World Bank and so on have Contributed to where Haiti is today or failed to help Haiti come out of the situation.
50:31
Speaker 1: Then today will you have very large countries, maybe eight to twelve of them, who have so much abundance and wealth that they seem to be using to secure the people in their country, as if they have some different humanitarian status than me and you who in a two-world country, and and they, they then, because them fellas control the IMF to write.
50:54
Speaker 1: So then they send people by you To tell you all right, you doing a good job here and there, and that that is one story.
51:00
Speaker 1: The other story is when you're not doing a good job on your fault and you need to borrow money from these fellas.
51:05
Speaker 1: So when they see that it's a six of them called structural reform or structural programs that's a specific economic concept, for they call mark the structure of your macro environment, right, always your policies, what you have in place to run the country from an economic standpoint.
51:20
Speaker 1: So when, when, from the time I am, I say structure is get frightened immediately, because the history has been.
51:27
Speaker 1: Now, when people borrow money from the IMF, the IMF tells you how we had a run your economy.
51:31
Speaker 1: At least they put some structural measures in place, right, we call structural reform.
51:35
Speaker 1: So they might.
51:36
Speaker 1: I would get idea if we had a borrow money from the IMF now.
51:40
Speaker 1: I Would.
51:41
Speaker 1: I Could put a real good guess.
51:45
Speaker 1: I could borrow money and the fact that you see you are pdude, see pep, whatever is called a program now that might be the end of that.
51:54
Speaker 1: You see all the All this center gates and you could go and study anything that I think that would be end the gate.
52:00
Speaker 1: If it's still.
52:00
Speaker 1: Had that Food card, that could be an.
52:02
Speaker 1: A food card could be an, a mother grant, wherever you think you become a mother.
52:06
Speaker 1: You got grant.
52:07
Speaker 1: Now no more that.
52:08
Speaker 1: So they could basically tell you that these non-productive or Transfer payments is one of the things they stop first.
52:13
Speaker 1: Right, transfer payments mean you collect money from taxpayers and you transfer it back to taxpayers with all the taxpayers necessarily doing anything productive.
52:22
Speaker 1: They're not, they're not, they're not working for it or they're not creating anything for it.
52:25
Speaker 1: So it doesn't add to these Production stock at the country.
52:29
Speaker 1: Am I going to be into this?
52:31
Speaker 1: It's not to the production.
52:32
Speaker 1: Stop the country, people not making more and more of anything for people to buy.
52:35
Speaker 1: So what happens is you put more money in people hand and you don't change the amount of goods people could buy.
52:42
Speaker 1: People will just pay more money for the same products again.
52:45
Speaker 1: I think we talk about this last week, this starting to turn me into a class.
52:48
Speaker 1: Maybe I should just play some kaisui.
52:49
Speaker 1: It's this time to turn that class for.
52:51
Speaker 1: But again we're coming from.
52:52
Speaker 1: It creates issues.
52:53
Speaker 1: It creates issues and we see in the issues now.
52:55
Speaker 1: That is the issue at KFC and that where Minimum wage went up.
53:00
Speaker 1: These businesses have to pay people more because when minimum wage goes up, all Wages start to creep up.
53:06
Speaker 1: Not too much hours remind, mind and move, but we just started creep up because if minimum wage was $20 before and it go up to $22 and 50 cents and I was paying the let me say I was paying a security guard $20 a hour, the most basic person are paying $20 a hour as minimum wage and a pain is supervising our 2250 hour.
53:28
Speaker 1: When they raise the minimum wage to 2250 and I have to pay the security guard 2250.
53:32
Speaker 1: I cannot pay the supervisor 20 to 50 still because it's a proviso.
53:35
Speaker 1: So well, this additional responsibility have I walking out?
53:38
Speaker 1: Just let me do with security.
53:39
Speaker 1: I go do the easier walk or the lesser hours or the one with less responsibility with all the new friends.
53:44
Speaker 1: Just give me the 25 50.
53:46
Speaker 1: So we had to do now is change our salary to 25 and when he extreka now was getting 25, yeah, the previous it's like sugar, 27 dollars.
53:53
Speaker 1: So you understand, all wages creep up when minimum wage creep up.
53:57
Speaker 1: So it is going to have a knock on effect on taxi prices, all food prices, because these businesses that have to pay people and when their wage bill goes up, the Cost of the tax or the additional burden of the of the, the custody business, is going to be passed on to the consumer.
54:14
Speaker 1: It's, I know, is there no two ways about that and that going on down to the consumer and we see it now and we starting to, we tend to get decent understanding, I hope.
54:24
Speaker 1: I hope how people start to see it, because when they announced it and we were considering raising minimum wage Last year, september, I was talking about his dens or hope.
54:34
Speaker 1: I hope you've been listening and following along.
54:35
Speaker 1: We, you will see it will set it probably somewhere around the point of starting to settle.
54:39
Speaker 1: But it's going to settle at a higher point, all prices through the whole country.
54:44
Speaker 1: And this is this is the issue here if, if your productivity not keeping up with your consumption, you have a problem right, so at least I am after the gods.
54:51
Speaker 1: Certain them say we doing good solution, but any boys or whoever's finance minister, I give it no one government or no one party the credit rate.
54:59
Speaker 1: I just saying that it's clear that we doing something's right, in other words, and the thing we doing right is really finding more gas.
55:05
Speaker 1: So I don't think any decision or anything that any one of these governments have done for the last how much years we independent, it really comes on to Finding more gas and so on, and we have other resources that we could use and exploit and benefit from here.
55:20
Speaker 1: I will come to that right, but I was talking political parties.
55:22
Speaker 1: Again, a Seattle Headline here that I find to be very, very interesting.
55:26
Speaker 1: Right, the headline said Philip gives Kamala ultimatum over Gary.
55:32
Speaker 1: I Think Philip Alexander will be one of the more confusing people in this country.
55:37
Speaker 1: No, let me read this is from the Guardian right.
55:39
Speaker 1: Philip gives Kamala ultimatum over Gary.
55:41
Speaker 1: I want no part of coalition if NTA is involved.
55:44
Speaker 1: It's from gail Alexander.
55:48
Speaker 1: National Transformation Alliance leader Gary Griffith says there's currently dialogue with opposition leader Kamala percepticis and that current teething issues with the UNC are simply to ensure mutual respect.
56:00
Speaker 1: But PEP leader Philip Alexander has called for UNC's leadership to decide on if Gary Griffith is again going to be a part of Any accommodation with the opposition party, suggesting he would want nothing to do with any arrangement that involves Gary Griffith.
56:14
Speaker 1: Yeah, stand on business.
56:16
Speaker 1: He's using them.
56:17
Speaker 1: Say, stand on business now in all, you go on Google or stand on business.
56:19
Speaker 1: But Griffith and Alexander stated their positions yesterday and plus had be says is now at the center of the situation involved in both men, both men's parties.
56:28
Speaker 1: This following an apparent softening of tensions After a rift between NTA and UNC was revealed last week.
56:36
Speaker 1: In a statement yesterday as news surfaced of the UNC NTA Development, alexander noted that he held a media conference on Saturday.
56:43
Speaker 1: When he say help media conference, he mean he was on Facebook live.
56:46
Speaker 1: He held a media conference on Saturday where he announced publicly that he'd be endorsing Beside business and UNC and this was mainly because guy Griffith has publicly broken with them and there was no longer part of any alliance or accommodation With them.
57:05
Speaker 1: He says, of Tuesday morning.
57:06
Speaker 1: I've learned that he's nori canton and has announced his intentions to reconnect with him.
57:10
Speaker 1: Let me make this.
57:11
Speaker 1: Let me make this per lucidly clear.
57:14
Speaker 1: Per lucidly is P?
57:16
Speaker 1: E, pll, uc ID, ly to look at Cassia devil's eye right when I see these kind of words as remember Cassia immediate, pellucidly clear.
57:25
Speaker 1: I can use that.
57:26
Speaker 1: No one's gonna tell people palusally in a random ways.
57:28
Speaker 1: I do not trust Gary Griffith, nor some of the personalities in his office, and I will be no part of anything he is a part of.
57:35
Speaker 1: I say so.
57:36
Speaker 1: I say so, alexander.
57:38
Speaker 1: That he's of no political benefit to anyone is reckless.
57:41
Speaker 1: Wait, hold on.
57:42
Speaker 1: He's Like I am seeing good.
57:47
Speaker 1: He say he is of no political benefit to anyone.
57:49
Speaker 1: His reckless eagerness to do whatever it takes to get what he wants Creates their dangerous environment and I'm not interested in being a partner.
57:56
Speaker 1: I Confused.
58:00
Speaker 1: He talked about somebody else.
58:02
Speaker 1: Wait, this is married.
58:03
Speaker 1: As of this morning.
58:04
Speaker 1: I'm canceling all media parents, all Facebook, as it is morning.
58:09
Speaker 1: I'm canceling all media appearances, all public statements and all public meetings until the leadership of the UNC decides if Gary Griffith or any of the People is involved with our gain, part of any accommodation with them in any capacity.
58:21
Speaker 1: Pending that information, I will inform the public of what my next course action will be.
58:26
Speaker 1: I could not stay that more palusably if I couldn't put that more palusad than he did.
58:31
Speaker 1: The man say y'all, the man say y'all.
58:32
Speaker 1: So we, we, we, firmly back in this cycle of Of election preparation.
58:39
Speaker 1: Right, if you wasn't sure that we was gearing up for election, we there, we in a situation with them Yankees under my election, they say no, let's see, only see to 90 something, y'all men, one half then one half, then I want trick water dead and the men fighting for election, daisy position, we heading into next year, no, them fellas and them of ladies and gentlemen, they starting to gears up.

59:12
Speaker 1: So that's something to me like a sort of a clarion call to say that if you have a small, if you have a small party, organize yourself and align yourself and and start up, start up, start up, start up.
59:25
Speaker 1: Play nice with one another so we could rope in as much or less possible because we gonna need all it is from the Guardian to regular.

Speaker 1: We have one common enemy.
1:00:22
Speaker 1: That is the government.
1:00:25
Speaker 1: Members of the political progressive empowerment party, led by Philippa Alexander, attended the meeting so clearly he's still around.
1:00:30
Speaker 1: He said tonight Posad be sessile said tonight feels like the election has been called.

1:00:54
Speaker 1: But that they do have such great History with that right.
1:00:57
Speaker 1: She said you and see must not be caught napping saying the UNC is a political vehicle for all.
1:01:02
Speaker 1: I want to urge smaller parties, please.
1:01:05
Speaker 1: All energy and fighting spirit should be focused on this wicked government.
1:01:09
Speaker 1: The UNC house remains open to all with a shared vision of removing this wicked government and restoring good governance in our country.
1:01:18
Speaker 1: I'll give them publicly isn't communication is noise?
1:01:20
Speaker 1: We don't need noise, we need focus and the soon-to-be election.
1:01:24
Speaker 1: Can you imagine another term for this wicked government?
1:01:27
Speaker 1: Fighting the government, not each other.
1:01:30
Speaker 1: Your priority should always be with the people.
1:01:33
Speaker 1: We don't have to fight.
1:01:35
Speaker 1: We don't have time to fight anyone except this wicked government.
1:01:39
Speaker 1: So clearly that wicked government statement is that prepare to hear that.
1:01:44
Speaker 1: A lot.
1:01:44
Speaker 1: Right, prepare to hear that all the nice prayer that's our campaign cry, right did with a wicked.
1:01:48
Speaker 1: She added.
1:01:48
Speaker 1: We must remain laser focused on the enemy and not each other.
1:01:51
Speaker 1: Our mission is to win the next general election and bring about safety and security.
1:01:55
Speaker 1: If anyone is not with you, they are against you.
1:01:59
Speaker 1: And they were surely working with the PNM.
1:02:01
Speaker 1: I like that.
1:02:01
Speaker 1: Claiming local government minister far as I'm not speaking, much beside me says equipped Philip would find work for him.
1:02:08
Speaker 1: I am not so unkind.
1:02:10
Speaker 1: She added.
1:02:11
Speaker 1: Oh, I guess they're looking at the other world.
1:02:13
Speaker 1: What are they trying to say here?
1:02:14
Speaker 1: They're calling for a while.
1:02:16
Speaker 1: Are we to say unhappy with the PNM, or so we could bring them over on the side?
1:02:19
Speaker 1: She also called to Alexander when she read this story on the SSA pastor and also said Alexander could help her when she was searching for a word.
1:02:27
Speaker 1: Possibly says a warn that there will be all kinds of tactics to damage the UNC from within and outside.
1:02:34
Speaker 1: Always remember we must put our rank and file supporters first.
1:02:37
Speaker 1: This is not a word.
1:02:37
Speaker 1: Me promoting the children of the UNC into parliament.
1:02:41
Speaker 1: More of the same right, more of the same.
1:02:45
Speaker 1: It's not much else to say about this article.
1:02:47
Speaker 1: The reality is that we in March 2024, standard head is a full swing because you're about one year from Pelmel election campaigning and walking constituencies and all those things All are wrong this time next year.
1:03:05
Speaker 1: People, people on the mode and I see your rollers is on the streets, rollers are rollers, is doing tongue meetings and so on.
1:03:11
Speaker 1: You know, that's something I'd again credit for.
1:03:12
Speaker 1: Fine for a prime minister, right, and maybe it's just my poor memory, but as a prime minister, he, even though he's organized PNM tongue meetings and the people in the meetings is probably PNM people and them kind of thing too I had a game credit for doing that often and all.
1:03:28
Speaker 1: I mean I've been doing this a little while now on monitoring the media for some time and you're trying to find that maybe as often as once a year might be even more often than that he does these tongue meetings and move around and sit on there himself and talk to talk to people.
1:03:41
Speaker 1: He would typically take questions from repress.
1:03:43
Speaker 1: I think he's a great satir that he's come across angry for no reason.
1:03:47
Speaker 1: Maybe that's just my own fears and insecurities to make him look, but somehow somehow he say things like I am.
1:03:53
Speaker 1: Talk mode is what I would consider pretty simple, simple topic.
1:03:57
Speaker 1: You're saying All the pizza places is import pineapple from abroad and he wants to invest some money in pineapple production locally, or farming, I suppose and once he able to do that, then the pizza people could come and get pineapples from here and maybe even we grow enough that we could export.
1:04:16
Speaker 1: Now I say that in a very matter of fact.
1:04:19
Speaker 1: We just know.
1:04:20
Speaker 1: I feel like if I had to say that an exciting way to excite farmers and think I could get to that access, say, listen, the government is here to put some money into pineapples because we see where the farmers are going and there's a market phase already and you can say it's an inspiring way and all that.
1:04:34
Speaker 1: But somehow he seemed to make that song very upsetting.
1:04:38
Speaker 1: This man is angry over pineapples.
1:04:41
Speaker 1: He's like what's going on with you?
1:04:43
Speaker 1: But I want to gain credit for always coming out and sitting there and facing people because, tell you the truth, if I was prime minister, right, me too feel like I'm talking to people too often and I mean, think about it.
1:04:56
Speaker 1: I do not put, I could do that me and I have much to risk and I sit down here and not talk to anybody.
1:05:01
Speaker 1: I spot that episode.
1:05:02
Speaker 1: I forget why I talk more when man call me to tell me the both, why I say I can't remember why I talk more.
1:05:06
Speaker 1: So 40 see me now coming out every week to sit down and talking to people and take question about it and think me, you know me.
1:05:13
Speaker 1: You know if I doing that at all now.
1:05:14
Speaker 1: But again, happy International Women's Day.
1:05:17
Speaker 1: Happy International Women's Day.
1:05:19
Speaker 1: Again, I'm trying my best to stay on the righteous part.
1:05:24
Speaker 1: Right, I'm trying my best to stay on the righteous part.
1:05:27
Speaker 1: So where righteousness is concerned, I would like to play this as a dedication to all the women on International Women's Day.
1:06:00
Speaker 2: I don't watch people.
1:06:01
Speaker 2: Man are looking for house and land.
1:06:03

Speaker 2: I find the battle and jogging me help and strength.
1:06:34
Speaker 2: Now it's we, we, we that can be English, that had to be French.
1:06:38
Speaker 2: Some of them they're stocking the most like they know it all.
1:06:42
Speaker 2: But if the ground water slip and fall, it's them.
1:06:45
Speaker 2: So I go drink water and mind my business.
1:06:47
Speaker 2: I go drink water and mind my business, me and you.
1:07:01
Speaker 2: Me and you are no beef, i's the police and you is the thief.
1:07:04
Speaker 2: The people you think is your friend.
1:07:07
Speaker 2: They're money.
1:07:07
Speaker 2: They cause your harmonies to stand.
1:07:09
Speaker 2: Some of them, they're stocking the most, like they know it all.

1:07:30
Speaker 1: Great, patricia Roberts.
1:07:35
Speaker 1: But okay how I try to walk on the righteous path right Again.
1:07:42
Speaker 1: Chop the platoon, like these two.
1:08:19
Speaker 3: I used to sit down and wonder what kind of woman turns me on, but I was too young to know that some women sweet and sun.
1:08:34
Speaker 3: Nowadays this isn't.
1:08:37
Speaker 3: So I act wrong and I got to know the different ways and different looks.
1:08:46
Speaker 3: And when you find a woman I want to know your opinion.
1:08:51
Speaker 4: But some men love a woman with big bottom, plenty hips and looking all right.
1:08:59
Speaker 3: But I love that woman who's too strong, plenty fit and love to go all night.
1:09:05
Speaker 3: I'm glad I don't have to search no more.
1:09:09
Speaker 3: I found a woman I could really grab on.
1:09:13
Speaker 3: She's bad.
1:09:15
Speaker 3: I still don't even know what she did last night that had me sweating, had me begging, darling no more, no more を.
1:09:55
Speaker 3: I want you men now to tell me how you love your woman.
1:10:01
Speaker 3: Tell me not being choosy and the same girl have anything else to end.
1:10:09
Speaker 3: They don't care at all if the woman love me, as long as she's happy with me.
1:10:14
Speaker 3: They were good and ready.
1:10:17
Speaker 3: Some women look so good and they're hot like fire, always in a sexy mood, ready to take you higher.
1:10:26
Speaker 3: Some men love a woman with big bottom, plenty hips and looking all nice.
1:10:33
Speaker 3: But there's love in women who chicken, strong, 20 feet and love to go all night.
1:10:41
Speaker 3: I'm glad I don't have to search, no more.
1:10:45
Speaker 3: I found a woman.
1:10:47
Speaker 3: I'm a really brave one, she's right.
1:10:51
Speaker 3: I still don't even know what she did last night that helped me sweating, helped me begging.
1:10:58
Speaker 3: Now learn no more, no more.
1:11:09
Speaker 1: Happy International Women's Day.
1:11:11
Speaker 1: How you like your woman and the man.
1:11:12
Speaker 1: I'm going on to Randy Glasgow for the longest while I had this to talk about Randy Glasgow to create new Calypso competition for Soka and Chutney artists.
1:11:21
Speaker 1: Randy Glasgow Productions is known for events like Ladies Night's Out alternative international comedy festival, but 2025 he wants to add a Calypso competition for Soka and Chutney artists to his event list.
1:11:33
Speaker 1: The absence of Soka Monaco over two years took away a platform from many evolving artists and the demo frustrated, he said in a phone interview with Newsday.
1:11:40
Speaker 1: Glasgow said we are firmly of the opinion that a lot of talent lies within the Soka fraternity with the young artists.
1:11:48
Speaker 1: He said two years passed and no consideration was given for young Soka artists to reference to having a competition.
1:11:54
Speaker 1: The international Soka Monaco was last held in 2020 and its winners were Iowa George Kes and Iowa George and Kes Wood stage gone bad.
1:12:02
Speaker 1: The competition ran uninterrupted for 27 years and gave visibility to some of Soka's most prominent figures.
1:12:08
Speaker 1: Today it is important and I feel the vision is lost and there is no vision where artists can.
1:12:13
Speaker 1: So Soka music is the engine of a kind of a.
1:12:16
Speaker 1: If you do not have good Soka music, people will be walking the streets until the jumping issue.
1:12:20
Speaker 1: Randy thanks, captain.
1:12:22
Speaker 1: Obvious A lot of effort and energy is needed to be placed in developing Soka music and encouraging it.
1:12:27
Speaker 1: He said different competitions help to do this.
1:12:31
Speaker 1: What we realize also to afford Soka artists more opportunities.
1:12:36
Speaker 1: We were thinking of a competition which will also help Calypso.
1:12:39
Speaker 1: This was before Marshall Monsanto came into Calypso.
1:12:41
Speaker 1: Glasgow said Alright, so this basically it right.
1:12:45
Speaker 1: He said he's going to start a competition and Seeing promoters like him I mean promoters are important part of the backbone and kind of a right and he's a very experienced and established promoter for a long time.
1:12:57
Speaker 1: Some of the biggest events in the kind of while.
1:12:58
Speaker 1: Has he ever done competitions?
1:13:01
Speaker 1: I am not sure.
1:13:02
Speaker 1: I think it was mostly very big fets at Randy Glasgow used to do one of the biggest right.
1:13:07
Speaker 1: But he said you're in the competition arena and I coincidentally saw TC Artist, tc right, who like to say the art for me, like to say the word art for my lot.
1:13:19
Speaker 1: You know I mean the art for money.
1:13:20
Speaker 1: I'm a known someone who just so caught somebody some great hits here over the years, right, and also People might forget or you might have never known when he was the host of the soka star competition that synergy used to have, which was all eyes on young, upcoming soka artists for several years running and no fireball had when.
1:13:42
Speaker 1: Once Umi Makano had when, once Kemba Sosano, if he didn't, when he was up there in the winners Trinidad killer was a part of that competition.
1:13:51
Speaker 1: Before you have several artists who come through it and I like what TC was talking about.
1:13:55
Speaker 1: Well, first, before I get to that, tc in them video clips was dressed crazy, you know.
1:13:59
Speaker 1: I mean I don't know like I couldn't hear what he's saying at some point it's like why is your dressing is crazy.
1:14:07
Speaker 1: What the hell was TC wearing that day?
1:14:08
Speaker 1: I don't know if he knew he was going for an interview or what, but that was crazy.
1:14:11
Speaker 1: Where he was wearing, tc is a man of substance and style, you know.
1:14:15
Speaker 1: I mean you can wear that again, tc, get rid of them jeans or then patch them days done.
1:14:19
Speaker 1: But substance, you know, I mean where he was lacking in style, he had plenty of substance because he was talking about One of the clips, was talking about the idea of banning Trinidad music and he was basically saying that the people who in charge of that they take too long to do something about it.
1:14:34
Speaker 1: Number one he's again reflecting that the people who singing, singing about what they're seeing.
1:14:38
Speaker 1: I feel he should add to it to not just the environment you come from, because let's say, I'm in an environment where it's have plenty guns and people getting robbed and drugs and things and my personality or my upbringing would have caused me to be afraid in that environment and I would be singing songs of wailing and suffering and so on.
1:14:59
Speaker 1: But in fairness to these youths now, them fellows and them sing songs of wailing and suffering and fear and escape, and these songs didn't really do as good as his songs that say they gun them down to get to know when to follow the average car outside of our family and the last part about the valour in every parking spot.
1:15:20
Speaker 1: But when, when gunman song come on with the most Rattata head man, boston shot inside the finger, shot the post, you know I mean.
1:15:29
Speaker 1: So people Like the gunman music gonna go further than the songs of wailing and tribulation and they don't even hear that too much unless it's.
1:15:37
Speaker 1: I mean, there's some great ones as rise to the top, or mostly the violent music probably were each further.
1:15:44
Speaker 1: But what he was saying is this idea of banning music.
1:15:47
Speaker 1: That is not.
1:15:47
Speaker 1: It is basically is a falsehood number one.
1:15:50
Speaker 1: He was saying because on radio, which he's been on for A long 20 years plus property TCR radio now and morning show to prime time slot and he writes that you couldn't play Unedited music on your radio anyway, and even if I did, you wanted to play one of them songs.
1:16:05
Speaker 1: They were the edited dog and everybody Know what he person saying anyway.
1:16:07
Speaker 1: But but more importantly than that, the way music is consumed now is not.
1:16:11
Speaker 1: It is not governed by anybody.
1:16:14
Speaker 1: Nobody could govern it, because they're going on YouTube and head the unedited version.
1:16:18
Speaker 1: They could get it, download.
1:16:20
Speaker 1: Mp3's are the original thing.
1:16:21
Speaker 1: They could go on Apple music, spotify anywhere and listen to music or put listen to a podcast like private Ryan mix and here another private Ryan does that, but I'm sure they have their own DJs.
1:16:31
Speaker 1: Who is following it?
1:16:33
Speaker 1: They do it all the time.
1:16:34
Speaker 1: So you thinking that you banning it is going to.
1:16:38
Speaker 1: I think it's banning it and I was saying this last week.
1:16:40
Speaker 1: I willing to step back on my idea of Whether music should be banned or not, because I did the whole thing, gone too far and it's just.
1:16:49
Speaker 1: It's just.
1:16:49
Speaker 1: It's like a snowball effect with this thing.
1:16:52
Speaker 1: But I Feel banning it is only for my ears, you know.
1:16:57
Speaker 1: I mean that I don't want to be listening to radio and hear that.
1:17:00
Speaker 1: I don't want to go in a public space and hear too much of that.
1:17:02
Speaker 1: Like I remember going on a beach one here, me and Zachary and Stacy going to enjoy a little beach.
1:17:06
Speaker 1: They wish to take a day off or we can go on up and you have to be here in that trinity bad man, walking, rolling, a speaker like a pull-along suitcase on plainest tree.
1:17:14
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear that.
1:17:15
Speaker 1: I come to relax and enjoy my matter of fact, I didn't want to hear no kind of music, I just want to hit it beach and think you disturb any peace.
1:17:21
Speaker 1: So if it's For my own peace and my own sensitive ears, banning it works for then I guess let me give it a try.
1:17:29
Speaker 1: But I think TC right, it doesn't nothing to the crime situation, nothing.
1:17:33
Speaker 1: It does nothing to stop the Mentality of the youth or the disposition of the youth, or what's it really gonna do with not it not gonna do anything.
1:17:42
Speaker 1: It is Is, it's more grandstanding and anything else.
1:17:46
Speaker 1: They come out and you say a thing, all like me.
1:17:48
Speaker 1: So and the people all other me say yes, yes, we'll stop that nonsense under the and I said All that happens, that it gets swept under a rug.
1:17:55
Speaker 1: You don't hear it no more.
1:17:56
Speaker 1: But the music continues to play and, more importantly, the sentiment behind the music and the reason for the music, both in terms of people who make it and the people who receive in it and enjoying it, the sentiment not going to change.
1:18:10
Speaker 1: I was, I was happy to hear TC talk about that.
1:18:13
Speaker 1: You also went on to another party, the interview again back to Randy Glasgow.
1:18:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, you was talking about how synergy, so cast out of the, be an avenue and an outlet for youths and some of the things that used to happen in terms of the machine, really, competition.
1:18:24
Speaker 1: You're saying that if you win the competition you can come back.
1:18:27
Speaker 1: I can't remember if you say and say you can come back, we've you win your care, come back.
1:18:30
Speaker 1: But either way, he was saying that it made for a continuous proper youths to be coming through every year, meaning a fresh batch, and If you're really interested in the development of the genre, development of the art form, as he puts it, those are the things you need and he was also saying that things like Calypso so come on out and so on, should be more like a showcase, like a Grammy, like a production Done, a competition.
1:18:57
Speaker 1: I, I personally feel they have space for both.
1:19:00
Speaker 1: He was parallel in, not parallel in, per lucid in what was the name of the word pelucid, pull this.
1:19:06
Speaker 1: Wherever he was, he was making a comparison between the Grenada.
1:19:09
Speaker 1: So, come on, I can hope a guy invented is there Versus trend that?
1:19:13
Speaker 1: So, come on, I can't hold it.
1:19:14
Speaker 1: Not, it's not a great.
1:19:16
Speaker 1: I Mean, I feel there are a few reasons for why it's not great, but I also don't feel that.
1:19:21
Speaker 1: So, come on, because he greatest development tool for young talent.
1:19:25
Speaker 1: I think what he talking about there with soka star is a better Alternative to, if we serious about developing young talent, which, like, while he talking about it, I want to ask him well to see if that was working so well, why it's stop.
1:19:38
Speaker 1: We must, we must must look into that to to try to understand Okay, if it, if this was such a great thing, how come we don't have it anymore?
1:19:45
Speaker 1: Is it sponsorship?
1:19:47
Speaker 1: Is it something we can invest in as private sector?
1:19:49
Speaker 1: Is it something the government could put money into?
1:19:51
Speaker 1: Is there opportunity to do it on TV6, or is it the Dachronistan synergy?
1:19:55
Speaker 1: What was he issue?
1:19:56
Speaker 1: The reason I say is more of a development until it was a competition.
1:20:00
Speaker 1: But it was a more in-depth and long-form competition.
1:20:04
Speaker 1: It wasn't you and your team coming up with something on all your own and going up there and hoping to compete against bungee Girl and all of a sudden playing field was a little more level and you had one to say it was like 12 weeks or 8 weeks of Show.
1:20:18
Speaker 1: So I don't know how much filming is takes to come down to eight each Eight episodes, eight or along episodes.
1:20:27
Speaker 1: But one of the things that was good is you would see them in band rooms.
1:20:30
Speaker 1: I remember one particular challenge they had with the artist was they had to go and sing this song with a band in the band room and the band was dragging on them.
1:20:41
Speaker 1: So the band started dragging them or play around, called on or go off course or you know, and one of the things that it was learning in the moment is that you are the lead singer, you are to command the band.
1:20:52
Speaker 1: So I'll just remember.
1:20:53
Speaker 1: The other part is where the fellas song, the keyboard man, but then a musician some Musician Because in the middle of the man song the man's other play Make, make, make, me, make, make, me, make, make, make, the make to the make.
1:21:06
Speaker 1: It's not really my, your brother's song in Mr he maan performers, and you're so did the front of some performers who get completely thrown off by it, who thing you know?
1:21:15
Speaker 1: And Some of them turn wrong and get it bad, a kind of vibes, and then he bands had a playwright.
1:21:20
Speaker 1: When he bands are playwrights and kick up, then they perform, and if the little lessons they were teaching them.
1:21:25
Speaker 1: There's like listen, your go, your performing places.
1:21:27
Speaker 1: Dj will make mistakes, he banal make mistakes.
1:21:29
Speaker 1: We remember you there to entertain the audience.
1:21:31
Speaker 1: You can turn your back on the whole audience and start to argue with the band or you can just go along with the band doing it.
1:21:37
Speaker 1: You had a straight mark of UN charger, the whole thing.
1:21:40
Speaker 1: Un charger was behind you as well as what happened in front of you.
1:21:43
Speaker 1: You remember the little situation with Nessa Preppy last year.
1:21:46
Speaker 1: Maybe Nessa Preppy could have done it with a Soka star and maybe she should have done a Soka star manager too, with that management competition.
1:21:53
Speaker 1: But you get to meet artists and they were critiquing them and showing them the thing I want to say, carl Beaver, ahead of the most part of that Helping artists with production, helping them with how to deliver and how to put together a song and helping them structure the song.
1:22:08
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm mixing it up with digital rising stars a little bit, but even rising stars you don't see happening again like that competition going down completely.
1:22:16
Speaker 1: There's no rising stars.
1:22:18
Speaker 1: So when you see they have a big gap between the superstars you have in the genre now and the up and coming people, it means that you're really not managing the industry.
1:22:29
Speaker 1: You're not doing anything to develop or encourage people.
1:22:33
Speaker 1: How do we transition young people who is 5, 6, 7 years old in primary school, who interested and love Soka and see it as a career?
1:22:44
Speaker 1: How you're transitioning them from there all the way up to the top?
1:22:47
Speaker 1: Let me use sports as an analogy.
1:22:49
Speaker 1: Right when I went into Fatima or when I was in Newton, I used to play cricket and football for Newton.
1:22:53
Speaker 1: So by the time I went to Fatima before the school start, before the first term, you went to cricket practice.
1:23:02
Speaker 1: I believe it was no, if it's summer it had to be football, because football started in September.
1:23:07
Speaker 1: So I went football practice and make the under 14 team and then I play under 14 football and a couple coaches the under 16 coaches, to watch the under 14 team.
1:23:17
Speaker 1: So I make the under 16 B team and I went and play with them and play matches.
1:23:22
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
1:23:24
Speaker 1: I was there with that.
1:23:24
Speaker 1: And then for cricket was the same thing by under 14, form one or form two has done playing under 16 cricketeries.
1:23:30
Speaker 1: So there's a system and then you make the first 11, none of which I made.
1:23:35
Speaker 1: I think I play first 11.
1:23:36
Speaker 1: No, I never play first 11.
1:23:38
Speaker 1: Nothing.
1:23:38
Speaker 1: I play basketball for tranquil, when I went in for the senior tranquil team and I went A levels.
1:23:44
Speaker 1: And so again there's a system through which you come from youth to professional, because Bravo was one of them people who play cricket in tranquil as well and we'll look at where he reached out with his cricket.
1:23:56
Speaker 1: So in some sports there's a clear development part to turn a youth into a professional.
1:24:01
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying it's great or it's perfect, it could be much better, but at least it's there, even in Calypso when you look at it.
1:24:07
Speaker 1: I was telling all that a few weeks ago about a youth named Zachary Ransom.
1:24:12
Speaker 1: You are going to hear in some years and I will come here and play Zachary Ransom Calypso songs that win the Calypso Monarchy will hear that Zachary Ransom sat over as a little boy singing Calypso, coming all through the years and he will become professional and play same thing with Aaron Duncan, same thing with Marshall Montano.
1:24:30
Speaker 1: There's a matriculation system to come all the way through.
1:24:34
Speaker 1: So as much as they used to say Calypso dead and Calypso dead and the thing and the bar red and all these kinds of things, and you see it now the Calypso maintains a certain level and a certain place where skin up are still a skin up after all these years selling out, and you have 20 to 40 artists come into sing proper Calypso in Calypso Monarchy semifinals all the time again because of that system that they're pulling through.
1:25:03
Speaker 1: But he's so good those seems have any system at all.
1:25:06
Speaker 1: It's a huge disconnect.
1:25:07
Speaker 1: So what you have is an artist.
1:25:11
Speaker 1: You have to have people like Chuck E, karina Shay, stacy Sobers, several of them artists.
1:25:16
Speaker 1: They could sing anything.
1:25:17
Speaker 1: There's an artist on the other stage.
1:25:19
Speaker 1: They could sing ballad, they could sing them a singer, singers, there was no joke, right.
1:25:23
Speaker 1: And they come through the Calypso arena and they can then transition to soca at any point.
1:25:28
Speaker 1: Hey, remember Marshall say Calypso is soca, soca is Calypso, right, you must never forget that, right.
1:25:31
Speaker 1: But the thing about it is there's no realm pulled through.
1:25:36
Speaker 1: The Soca Monarchy stands on its own and then the school's soca monarchs sometimes they take one, sometimes they take one, they want to turn to whining and carrying on and jumping and waving flag and thing.
1:25:46
Speaker 1: They want to turn and then go down a certain road.
1:25:48
Speaker 1: So you're seeing a certain disconnect between it.
1:25:52
Speaker 1: And if Soca Star was one of them connecting points and Soca Star is gone, and even rising stars if they used to do soca, and that gonna think TC, absolutely right.
1:26:01
Speaker 1: And it will be interesting to see what Randy Glassgood does with a competition here, because what we need is several.
1:26:07
Speaker 1: If competitions is illegal, we need several competitions for several age groups and at several levels so that people could pull all the way through.
1:26:15
Speaker 1: Now as we're talking competition, right, I did see as well a where did it go?
1:26:24
Speaker 1: Now as we're talking competition as well, right, and I have one song to play, right, I do want to play something for you, because I did come here and I talk about the intellectual chutney monarch and the chutney monarch and how innovative those competitions were and some of the rules behind those competitions, right?
1:27:00
Speaker 1: I only remember the discussion.
1:27:03
Speaker 1: We come back in the end and we say that Nyla won the international chutney monarch, and I did go and take in her performance and I will say that she deserved to win.
1:27:17
Speaker 1: Right, she deserved to win, I think, by a stretch.
1:27:23
Speaker 1: Well, let me put it this way you see how Marshall was in the Calypso competition, where his performance in semi is in particular.
1:27:31
Speaker 1: You could see the difference between his performance and some of the other performances in terms of the whole show, how rehearsed he was and so on.
1:27:38
Speaker 1: That's how Nyla was in the chutney monarch.
1:27:41
Speaker 1: So congratulations to her and, as a woman and an uplifting song, I had to play this song.
1:27:46
Speaker 1: But I think you will be surprised and have been meaning to play this for you.
1:27:49
Speaker 1: You will be surprised by the song that Nyla use or play or sing and win the intellectual chutney monarch.
1:27:59
Speaker 1: Remember, not intellectual the chutney, yeah, the intellectual chutney monarch is what she went.
1:28:03
Speaker 1: Keep in mind, this is not chutney.
1:28:05
Speaker 1: So, come on, okay, this is chutney music, not chutney, not the fusion between chutney, and so it's chutney chutney.
1:28:10
Speaker 1: And this is when Nyla sing and beat people.
1:28:12
Speaker 1: Tell them I will be there.
1:30:14
Speaker 1: Yeah, intellectual chutney monarch, Right, you will call that a mat summer right, Whoever?
1:30:18
Speaker 1: Nyla let's see these bosses, because it wasn't.
1:30:21
Speaker 1: Nyla had some great years in terms of big hits and he kind of had, and maybe this was not one where she had all the big hits.
1:30:27
Speaker 1: But certainly walk away with a quarter million or whatever the price was in chutney monarch, Because if you feel she can go put some dollar, can tap tabla behind that and make sure that that song song like a chutney or wrong one what you perform on, right, Great, great performance by Nyla Blackmon.
1:30:41
Speaker 1: But again, as much as you're playing uplifting song about women, they can make a play tune like this hey, fellas, I tell you what he said is true.
1:31:46
Speaker 3: You have a man with you as the tail.
1:31:48
Speaker 3: It hurt me but I felt so shame when I heard she called him my name.
