How are the broiling cameras? Did you look into the firmware? Other folks with that exact model may have the same problems and solutions. Manufacturers might tweak their firmware to squeeze the last drop of performance to keep a device competitive. But...how high a resolution does one need for classroom teaching and interviews?
Videos are difficult to traverse, compared to text. Took me a while to rediscover your book reference in that CwaM vid. They are also data volume sinks. Would it be possible to provide an audio only version, and companion small images of book covers and maps or whatever you're referencing? Information density trumps volume, especially for the volume limited. Hard times are a-coming, and Samizdat will need to be concentrated rations. As handsome or pretty as y'all are, many hundreds of Mb are an extravagant waste.
In the Aussie Army we had a thing called a "soldier's five"; a concise lesson on a limited topic to give the basics necessary to a task at hand. Perhaps you might consider a series of foundational building block lessons, limited in scope but with the possibility of connecting to more comprehensive lessons. Lego lessons to build understanding a block at a time. These might be useful for your Kinjiro House project, and easy to translate since they are not rabbit trails. One doesn't have to eat the whole cow in one meal. Also easier to sell, since the workman should be paid.
Ecclesiastes 12:1-14
[1] Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them; [2] While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, be not darkened, nor the clouds return after the rain: [3] In the day when the keepers of the house shall tremble, and the strong men shall bow themselves, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those that look out of the windows be darkened, [4] And the doors shall be shut in the streets, when the sound of the grinding is low, and he shall rise up at the voice of the bird, and all the daughters of musick shall be brought low; [5] Also when they shall be afraid of that which is high, and fears shall be in the way, and the almond tree shall flourish, and the grasshopper shall be a burden, and desire shall fail: because man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets: [6] Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. [7] Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. [8] Vanity of vanities, saith the preacher; all is vanity. [9] And moreover, because the preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yea, he gave good heed, and sought out, and set in order many proverbs. [10] The preacher sought to find out acceptable words: and that which was written was upright, even words of truth.
[11] The words of the wise are as goads, and as nails fastened by the masters of assemblies, which are given from one shepherd. [12] And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh. [13] Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
[14] For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
Not losing interest at all, Michael & Masako. Perhaps one explanation for the view #’s has to do with entrance into summer season shifting schedules and timelines on catching up on your material. Please keep driving the point home on human osmotic pressure due to wars/famine/ports closures/blockades; and, that the NGO’s will still partake in human/child trafficking. You may not agree with the following: There will be a tendency to overcompensate in certain circles on addressing human rights violations on the subject of illegal alien apprehension (baklava mask wearing, no name tag officials gestapo tactics), all the while creating a pernicious mess of being too permissive on who or what will be able to enter the U.S. after the midterms, and, after this administration. Such a scenario is incredibly dangerous, as you well know.
I do a lot of research on many topics, Michael, and receive a number of articles in which I'm a paid subscriber so can't always watch your vids as soon as they come out but I DO watch all of them. I'm sure people are watching them. I suspect Substack is messing around. Some of the other's I subscribe to having issues with them.
Keep up with what you're doing. Your stuff is different from the others and just as important.
When my wife and I decided to have a natural childbirth 31 years ago, our very best resources were the writings of Dr. Robert Bradley and taking classes based on his work. He was a staunch proponent of natural birth, from post WW2 on, against the rising tide of proliferating drug/surgery intervention. I can’t remember the exact titles, But I believe his book was “Husband Coached Childbirth” In terms of actual practical preparation, Susan McCutcheon’s “Natural Childbirth The Bradley Way” is possibly more useful.
I can vouch for the method’ preparing both of us (and baby) to be ready to share a natural miracle as a family.
We love everything you talk about, keep the content coming, your content is amazing and very interesting. Your perspective on today’s events in this world is very important and I appreciate everything you do.
Michael, please don't get discouraged by views. People lead busy lives and with it being summer, your message, while important, will take a back seat. I'll catch 2-3 if your videos at a time to catch up, but appreciate your time nonetheless.
You will soon understand the meaning of busy! 😆😆. Best wishes!
I have so much to share about childbirth even though I only did it once. Even if you use a midwife you must insist on no episiotomy. Using a knife is a major contributor to infections and often death after childbirth. All hospitals try to push the episiotomy for additional revenue. If the vagina rips during natural childbirth make sure your midwife is capable and can stich up the tear. I had 38 stitches after childbirth but the tear was natural not from a knife. Another word of advice about the kicking Baby Bear. While the expectant mother is walking and moving the baby is being rocked to sleep, but as soon as the mother-to-be lies down or takes a rest the baby will wake up and start moving around. It gets extremely difficult for mother-to-be to get some sleep in the later months of pregnancy. So to get some relief you can have mother and baby sleep at the same time by finding a comfortable rocking chair or hammock which keeps them both in motion. I'm sure you can get creative like getting a water bed. Many more tips coming. Take care and good luck.
I saw my first report of wood shavings being found in certain breads from the store. I immediately thought of all the reports of this being done in Germany / WW2. Then you bring it up today in the video. Ugh.....
I would not be surprised if Substack is also shadow banning. The only places that guarantee your free speech are Gab and Odyssee. Maybe Bitchute and Telegram.
Other substackers have been complaining for a couple months that their videos and written pieces have been getting throttled and their content is also "controversial" and they blame Substack as sell outs.
Most people who I want to send your info are not on Substack.
Dear Michael, Masako and BB,
I just caught the interview y'all recently gave with Coffee and a Mike:
https://rumble.com/v7awdca-midwives-blocked-by-hospital-contracts-in-japan-full-show-michael-yon-and-m.html?e9s=src_v1_s%2Csrc_v1_s_o&sci=08ddfd6e-65f1-4937-87c4-244ca728eab5
Why don't you publish your "foreign" interviews here on your substack?
In that interview you mentioned a book, "Dumbing us Down". Was that this book:

You may be interested in John Taylor Gatto, who also wrote on the topic. Here is the speech he gave in 1990 whilst accepting a teaching award:

And a book of his:

Love Masako’s sweet, sweet intelligent face, lovely voice, a delight to behold: take care of yourself, Masako - that takes care of your precious baby.
I saw my first report of wood shavings being found in certain breads from the store. I immediately thought of all the reports of this being done in Germany / WW2. Then you bring it up today in the video. Ugh.....
I am also watching. Thank you n best to Masako n baby besr.
I am watching! Thank you.
Thank you for your dedication and hard work. Great job
