The Trials and Tribulations of Vlogging: A Candid Look at the Struggles of Creating Content

As I sit here, attempting to record a vlog for my audience, I am reminded of just how bad I am at this whole vlogging thing. I apologize in advance for any frustration or annoyance that may come from watching me struggle with the basics of recording video. I'm not even sure where to start, but let's begin with something as simple as lighting.

I've recently invested in a new light source, hoping it would improve the overall quality of my vlogs. However, I must admit that I'm still getting used to it. The first time I turned it on, I was taken aback by its brightness and couldn't quite figure out how to adjust it properly. "Isn't that distracted?" I asked myself, worried that I might be throwing off the entire vibe of my video. Thankfully, after a few attempts, I managed to dial in the perfect amount of light.

Despite my best efforts, I still find myself getting flustered around police officers. It's not a big deal, I assure you, but somehow it always seems to happen at the worst possible moment. My mom was kind enough to offer some words of encouragement, saying "It's okay, sweetie." But even with her support, I couldn't help feeling a bit anxious.

As I continued to record, my mind began to wander. I started thinking about the Shins and how much I dislike their music. It's not that I'm a huge fan of the genre or anything – it's just that they're not really my cup of tea. And then, out of nowhere, someone mentions watching Anchorman for research purposes. "That's one of the main reasons I'm getting rid of this camera," I said wistfully, reflecting on my struggles with the device.

I've been searching online for a new vlogging camera, hoping to find one that better suits my needs and preferences. However, it seems like an uphill battle. I've tried various models, but none have quite captured my attention. The problem is, I'm very particular about details – things like camera noise, tripod stability, and even the color palette of the screen.

As we wrapped up our recording session, we took a walk outside to clear our heads. I couldn't help but notice how much I love spending time with my family. We chatted about everything from dinner to the latest news on the Walking Dead series. Despite the occasional awkward moment (who hasn't walked down a train track for hours?), it was a wonderful way to spend time together.

As we said our goodbyes, I realized that sometimes, even when things don't go exactly as planned, they can still be really great. Take the recent release of The Second One – a Walking Dead sequel – for example. Not only did it receive an overwhelmingly positive response from fans, but it also happened to surpass its predecessor in terms of ratings on Rotten Tomatoes.

For those who may not be familiar with the world of online communities, let me explain that some platforms have a peculiar practice called "Plexing." It involves streaming content through services like Plex for specific purposes – such as watching or reviewing certain shows. In this particular instance, our friend Joey was trying to watch an episode of The Second One on Plex but ended up getting frustrated and eventually abandoning the experience.

As we wrapped up our vlog session, I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over me. It's funny how sometimes, even when things seem like they're not going according to plan, they can still turn out to be quite enjoyable in the end. And with that, it was time for us to sign off and bid each other farewell.

As I reflected on our little experiment with vlogging, I realized that perhaps this wasn't exactly the most conventional or polished video we've ever created. However, despite its imperfections, it has given me an opportunity to think about what truly matters: sharing my thoughts and experiences with others, no matter how imperfect they may be.

With a heart full of gratitude and appreciation for all who have supported me on this journey, I bid you farewell for now. Until next time, when we'll attempt to create another vlog – hopefully one that's just as good, if not better than the last.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: eni'm not i'm not trying to be funny but have you ever like watched a cat poop yeah like is it normal for the balls to like fly out like a cannonball you see that right there that right there is an example of a gaming phenomenon that game is called apex legends and it came out of nowhere completely free battle royale game to play of course you can buy micro transactions which i've already done the game's free they deserve my money but completely free battle royale released on monday complete surprise complete surprise and it's got millions of players already that's incredible millions so respawn congratulations on such a huge surprise launch me and myself i'm loving the game i suck at it i suck at it which is i don't know kind of rare for me to say this sounds kind of cocky but i'm typically pretty good at any game i touch but there's something about apex legends it definitely has a learning curve and i need to learn how to get good i need to learn what legends i'm best with i need to learn my weapon combos but it will happen i'm so hyped to play again today two streams today guys two streams because today is friday but first allow me to do my proper introduction hello guys how are you my name is david defranco and welcome to the weekend the sun is bright yo it's bright this week was a great week we got apex legends which you can clearly see i'm excited about and defrancomedia.com is live check it out it's a website that's basically created as an all-in-one resource to advertise my creative services like graphic design web design photo editing all that stuff in addition to free resources so if you're looking to start a project of your own and you're not relying on someone else i guess that's the best way of putting it then the website is completely built for you in mind so whether you're looking to hire me to do work or you're looking to do it yourself the media.com is the place to be because on the front page if you scroll down a little bit there's something i call a content self starter kit and that includes links to web hosts i prefer um and of course go to the resources page no no hold on the best place to start is the get started page click that get started button you'll see it towards the top of the homepage and that's pretty much what you need to know about the websites everything you need to get started on a new project or an existing one is right there so enjoy it and thank you so much for your support also in regards to patreon man what a big week for the first time ever i've created an exclusive subreddit that only patrons can create topics on the public can view it if you happen to find it that's cool you can comment on it but only patrons can start new topics so basically this new subreddit will be used for video topic ideas for me to talk about anything you guys want like video games real estate food pets whatever but um yeah the main purpose behind creating that site was to bring back the q a videos that i used to do years ago um and honestly i missed those days when you guys would ask me what are my thoughts on the new nintendo 3ds or macbook verse macbook air and stuff like that so now that defrancomedia.com is live this gives me so much more free time to start creating youtube videos again you guys have my word i will start creating more youtube videos again actually starting this week because my five year anniversary on patreon is coming up five years that's a long time especially considering so many people doubted me i love proving people wrong i do i just i just get off on that and please look at me as an example never not do something just because others say it's a bad idea i mean guys think about it if i were to listen to those hundreds of negative people on that patreon introduction video then i wouldn't be where i am today i wouldn't be in this house so please take my advice ignore the negativity actually no hold on embrace the negativity take that negativity in your hand put in your hearts and just try to prove those people wrong because i'm telling you i love that it's such a good feeling when people doubt me i think that's when i work best and the same can easily be said for you so get out there and start creating something and that's exactly why i created different media to inspire to motivate to get work done so do it do it you only live once stop saying you're gonna start something and just do it stop saying it and start doing it alright now that my motivational intro is out of the way how are you guys i'm going to make coffee i need it actually no i had a decent night sleep um i fell asleep last night around like 11 o'clock got like maybe an hour and a half nap and then i previewed the patient's only vlog which is over an hour and a half long very very long vlog please excuse my random voice cracks i need water but um yeah this should be a good weekend i don't know what i'm doing exactly besides playing apex legends and working on the frankie media and managing my patreon and all that stuff but should be a good weekend should be a good weekend um and i should be over the pretzels house tomorrow so plenty of family footage let's do it the best part of waking up is having a cup of coffee with maui hi maui god imagine if my voice sounded like that hi marie look at that booty okay okay not a move to play it's cool it's cool you're a good boy hi you want a treat you want a treat hey maui you wanna treat here you wanna treat i don't know what i just said here you go there you go shout out to cat owns me for these maui loves them he doesn't even chew him watch sometimes he can't pick him up oh he chewed it a little bit but he usually just swallows it whole all right let's do this guys let's make it a good productive fun-filled weekend starting with some coffee let me top that off a little bit i always top it off and i'm actually gonna have breakfast unfortunately i'm out of sausage i ate all my brownies this week i love brown and syrup oh my god it's so good i gotta fix my voice oh and i made tacos this week oh my first time making tacos in my new house dudes and dudettes let me tell you so good so so good i'm gonna make toast something simple hey maui your cookie oh man what a great week guys i'm just feeling good check this out isn't that awesome and i have it on setting three out of five we're about six if you want to keep going past the five it's blank but let's just assume it's six why have a basic toaster when you can have this and plus shout out to my parents they just gave it to me because they got the same model but one with four slices instead of two so mom dad thank you thank you and plus let's not forget my microwave has alexa support so that's just the kind of person i am i love technology so does maui maui what are you a mac or pc user mac good i like it it is time to publish the weekend vlog and the pigeons only of locker t vlog apex is pure chaos sometimes i can't wait to play this soon thank you again for all the positive feedback regarding the weekend vlog changes i'm actually really excited about friday being you know vlog day i mean i get to publish two vlogs every friday now every friday and now that we went through a whole week without a vlog you know not coming today i think people will you know hopefully quickly get used to the um friday schedule which i think is fine it's fine if anything it's the weekend vlog shout out to my friend ellie that actually makes perfect sense watching the weekend vlog on the weekend i like it yeah it's the previous weekend but does it really matter i don't think so my subreddit may be brand new but we already have 52 subscribers it's getting there also i made a decision the subreddit will be public to view and comment on um so check out the link right below but i'm still standing by my original uh vision with this and saying that only patrons can create new topics that way it's kind of balanced like non-patrons can get a sneak peek they can read they can comment but again only patrons can actually start new topics i think that's fair i think that's fair so enjoy that subreddit is right below please check it out because well as you can probably tell in recent years the youtube comment section in my opinion has kind of gone downhill in a way yeah there's still a ton of people out there but all the toxicity and whatever is just just overwhelming sometimes and with subreddit i truly believe we can create a positive um inspiring community so again right below check it out then just sec it keeps coughing i gotta say i don't usually watch ninja but the fact that he's playing apex legends it's kind of reigniting my interest in a way and i gotta say he's actually really good at the game i just asked my dad if he wanted rudders for lunch and he said sorry not today denied by my own family rejected seriously though what do they want do i have tuna again i just had tuna yesterday i mean i'm doing mcdonald's tonight that's definitely happening that is definitely happening so i don't want to have anything too bad for lunch hmm taquitos they make me poop chicken fries ah too boring i do have lunchables and i'm sometimes five years old now he's contemplating life what do you think about maui there's that cat there's that orange cat you see it hold on right around there that's like my newest visitor i believe he got into a flight with maui last night not like physically but they were through the glass and they're like but i i'm trying to get the i'm kidding come on now he's like let me add him let me add him hey kitty he actually approached me one night outside as i was taking the trash out but i don't know if he'd approach me now he actually looks really curious come here i have candy lots and lots of candy come on come on i don't like moments like this where i don't know what to have for lunch i might just have this and some snacks this isn't very filling wow it's amazing how quickly the sun warms that up it doesn't feel cold on the outside anymore yeah that cat is hardcore staring get him howie get him oh low battery gotta switch brb the cat was just over here he walked across the grass and walked over here kitty you know me and cats i'm typically good at befriending them i've always hated the word befriend because it's sounds like it's a bad thing sorry maui he's gone for now but who knows he might sneak up on you tonight assuming i was him last night yep he's across the street where he lives that now he's lying down on the front porch i wonder if he can see me i don't know i love cats can you tell i legit feel good lately like i've gotten all the bad news out of the way i've made a few people upset but i feel comfortable with myself now the vlogs are on a good day i have a new subreddit going i'm building positivity amongst patrons which is great amongst everyone actually i've been trying to think of a good quote for all the drama i've dealt with for the past few weeks and it goes something like this you have to make a few people upset to make most people happy i feel like i should like shorten that you need to upset a few to please most or something like that but guys it's the truth as with any change there's always going to be a handful of people who doesn't understand your perspective but thankfully most most people do yeah of course i've had people say david your youtube channel is dead no my youtube channel's not dead people overuse the word dead i always see people saying four nights dead if you really think fortnite's dead you gotta get your brain checked all right today's sad excuse of a lunch you know what maybe i'll have this in addition to soup that right there is a fine quality lunch god i'm dying to play this again in about an hour i'm so hyped definitely gonna get some practice in ninja's pretty good at this as he dies that's okay we all die we all die don't forget as with any battle royale game out there the odds are always against you so don't think you suck at a game if you die over and over again you're likely going to lose a lot more than you win unless you're like shroud who has insane aim that dude is crazy you got a good life i love this episode dude such a good episode making broccoli cheese soup don't drop the soap don't drop the soap so good and present i've been playing and if you don't know uh who the hell you think you are who the hell do you think he is i love the doc he's so full of himself he's great the doc's been using just his person this is personality is amazing i love razer this is your monthly reminder if you're not using a mouse with mmo buttons on the side you know one through 12 you're seriously missing out i i can't imagine using my keyboard to use like grenades and whatever that just doesn't make sense so if you're wondering i use three on my mouse four grenades and both blackouts and apex and i use five to heal in both blackouts and apex and i think i use shield repair on six and blackout unfortunately healing and shield repair are still separate i mean i'm sorry there's still um several commands but on one keybind in apex legend so i'm really really hoping to change that because i would much prefer to switch between the two like instantly without having to bring up that little wheel but um yeah let's do it i would link my razor mouse right below but they don't make it anymore sadly more coffee time time to go on twitch guys let's make it a good day stream number one of two is that okay with you sir remember you're a thick boy actually you're a thick bull what's back who is it what he definitely saw something man what was that i didn't see anything that was a really quick reaction i'm over here trying to play with him and he runs away he saw something maybe a bird was on the deck i don't know cats will be cats look all the natural light in here right now isn't this a beautiful thing i love it and i still need to properly decorate my uh my wall over here it's a nice wall isn't it it's a nice wall my mom's actually jealous of that wall it's got to put stuff on there i don't know what i'm picturing like a mirror i actually wouldn't mind like a large mirror some kind of decorative mirror maybe it's a shiplap wall so it deserves something nice well they have it another successful stream i gotta say having lights under there really helps complete how this looks check it out let's turn these off right look at that it looks so much better with them on doesn't it it's not bad it's amazing what a little bit of light can do especially over here i'm so glad i moved these leds from down there on my wall noisy board right there anyway um the leds were back here but i recently put them under the desk which i think really makes it look that much better check that out what a difference what a difference and next up i know i keep saying it but leds will go back here i just have to get around to doing it because i always find myself busy doing something turn the old keurig off love this thing keurig k elites if anybody wants to buy one i'll link it right below on amazon it's been perfect and it's got a ton of size options look at that typically it's three options this one gives you five size options which is pretty cool i love it it's just been great ignore that mess i need the cleaning table a bit and mario's being lit up like a mother i mean look at that look at that getting text the leds make this room truly look so different now i got to start thinking about that corner what should i do over there let me know right below i'm still not deciding on cubes i don't know if i even want to put a bunch of figures over there that might be worthy of something else i don't know i don't know eventually one day if i'm ever being on twitch i want to do something like the doc does where he has a separate uh part of his room or studio or whatever he calls it where he walks over to the green screen and he does these scenes and this could actually be a perfect wall for a green screen where i stand here and just kind of do stuff but i am nowhere near nowhere near that kind of popularity on twitch nowhere near at all but maybe one day goals right you got to set goals i'm going to feed maui and head out for dinner and of course coming down here check it out more leds i don't have these lights one that often but i do have them set up in case i ever want to turn them on boom check that out love it look at that combo it looks so good and i actually have my windows open today letting lots of natural light in during the day oh he sees the cat he's this guy here we go it's going down guys see i can't see it but he can because cats have insane vision wait for it now is there a cat out there i don't see anything all right maui is it time to eat honey it's time to eat now and then i like to check into my own streams my vods just to see how the quality looks looks pretty good actually looks really good it's past seven o'clock and i still haven't left guys thank you so much for all the nice and positive comments on the latest weekend vlog really really means a lot to me i just want you guys to know that i truly truly do appreciate you yeah i haven't won any games i'm just saying that because i don't know it's been mentally tough for me lately but thank you thank you i promise i'm not going to dwell on it moving forward i just want you to know that you are appreciated all right uh what was going to say oh shout out to someone for recommending that really expensive counter um it's like an led sign that can track youtube subscribers twitch subscribers like twitter followers all that stuff thing is i've considered that before but it's 200 dollars i might just suck it up and buy it i mean two hundred dollars is a lot of money for a sign but i might just treat myself to it um it would be really nice to put on the shelf in the background for instance right around here on my shelf i think it would look really nice and you can actually see it um whereas right now my monitor is behind me and you can't see that but if i put the sign right here up here or whatever then yeah you can actually see it but right here on the shelf contains most of my amiibo so i don't know where i would put them i don't i don't want to shift them down if the sign can fit right here then yeah i'll consider it or i'll put a shelf within the shelf i don't know we'll see we'll see i love apex guys i'm hungry it is time to head out i need food i will see you at i don't know mcdonald's i kind of want to go to target but i know i don't need to go to target i like these guys but maybe i'll go you see that white balance shift these leds in this camera they don't get along let's go oh wait i see you in that green shirt you're looking down aren't you got a couple people in last week's vlog with that comment that was fun anyway at mcdonald's i know i know i'm getting fat you guys point that out every week believe me i i see myself in a mirror believe it or not but sometimes you just gotta treat yourself right however i will say i did buy a lot of things for meals at dinner at dinner to cook at home for dinner i i think my mind is getting worse i think i'm getting worse i got fries oh wow oh my god whoa go to mcdonald's right now get some fries all right so oh my god first of all the cheesy bacon fries are good i don't see myself getting them again honestly um they're just kind of like a one-time thing they're good but to be honest they're nothing revolutionary i mean mcdonald's fries are just fine the way they are hence why i haven't orgasm every time i put them in my mouth so but donald you tried you tried that's all that matters but take it as a couple man their fries are perfectly what they are they're so good they're so good so as i started to say i'm embarrassed because i got two sandwiches they have a special in the app if you buy one sandwich you get a second sandwich for 25 cents 25 cents and i need to be nice and full for tonight's stream so i got a big mac and the filleto fish now hear me out the filet of fish is not that filling so that's why i got that i could have easily gotten a double cheeseburger which i almost did but i don't want too much beef you got to balance out your fish with your beef when you boof through your favorite whatever you know you got to keep them equal on both sides so all right dude mcdonald's how do you do it is the oil used or what i will say though five guys which is right behind mcdonald's has some really good fries all right i've showed you guys enough seriously these are the best mcdonald's fries i've had in weeks i mean they're typically very good but these are like scorchingly hot mcdonald's well done well done all right see you guys are home from my target hall i'm home and maui ran out with the garage door open thankfully he stopped right here and i grabbed him scared the crap out of me now chances are he would have been fine i would have just caught him but still there's other cats out there i don't want a cat fight breaking out hi maui it's funny as i found him outside years ago but ever since i moved to this area in my old house he's become a house cat i just don't want anything to happen in the world right maui safety first hi hi that's actually how we found blinks too it's a pattern pat turn pat took a turn what's that from comment below okay target haul pretend you care here we go here we go i actually got a lot of good stuff tonight eggs ah my size it's not not good for you but i just need easy lunch ideas boneless chicken bites buffalo style i figured why not stovers mac and cheese love stouffer's a chicken pop bye easy dinner one night another snack tray stupid me left this tray out overnight in my room i think last weekend and i woke up the next day and i found it just sitting on my desk and i'm like you're an idiot and yeah there's pepperoni and cheese i'm not going to take the chance of that going bad it's not worth the risk all right so i got more capri sun it's been a while i haven't tried these yet shout out to my dude danny minnick he says pacific cooler is very good so i went with the 10 pouch box if i like this then i'll buy myself a 30 pouch box for upstairs in the gaming room these could be

messy what's happening to me and milk there you go pretty successful target haul i mean i don't expect to get all this pasta and sausage i figured why not try this this could be a good meal and it's not really that bad for you it is a good night tis a good night all right i'm gonna put all this fun stuff away um heat up my big mac i guess watch the office maybe hop in the shower go on twitch stream for like six or seven hours it's gonna be a long night guys it's gonna be a long night so get ready not that you're gonna see much of it because i'm gonna be busy doing that stuff but just enjoy either way you know what after my oh serious question for you guys nope i'm not i'm not trying to be funny but if you ever like watched a cat poop yeah like is it normal for the balls to like fly out like a cannonball what the no i have a lot of gas built up he knows maui dude he shoots them out like a weapon they come out so fast like contents under pressure jeez oh god i'm hot i got the video oh dude if you told joey that he died many hours later maui would you like to tell the viewers what time it is alexa what time is it it's 6 20 am my god 6 20 am guys thank you so much for your support amazing times in siege and especially apex legends i didn't get any wins tonight unfortunately we came so close a couple times there was there was one match where i wish i could have redone my strategy because i should have handled i mean honestly we all should have handled it a little differently um but it is what it is you know what you make mistakes to learn from those mistakes and i know it's just a game but to me it's not just a game it's about winning ah but despite that fx legends is a ton of fun like i am honestly loving the game it's so so good and it came out of nowhere like it came out of nowhere okay i'm gonna have my bowl of cereal watch some anchorman on plexi but that's how i fall asleep it's gonna be like 7 7 30 so i'm definitely sleeping in it's the weekend who cares i'll see you after the cut oh my god i'm just now getting my day started and i'm not going to tell you what time it is i went to bed around like 7 7 30 in the morning i woke up so much today like over and over again i was because i was dreaming about stupid freaking apex legends over here it really is a great game it does so much right the banner system for those who don't know you can basically walk around the map and there's these large banners and you can see the top killer you know the kill leader you can see the champion and sometimes i see my name up with her it's just the best feeling also we've seen summit up there that we found summit then i think um flares killed no knock summit then um danny killed him then yesterday we saw king richard as the champion in our match so we started panicking i'm telling you the batter system is amazing more battle royales need to do that it's just so much fun also the revive system is so good when you know you have to take your teammates banner and take them over to the respawn station my voice isn't all there guys um so i'm gonna i'm gonna take a little easy today this weekend vlogs probably not gonna be over an hour long if it is i'll be shocked i just want to chill today make more coffee eat lots of food get get lots of energy in because tonight is going to be another late night but first i have a question for you guys i usually like to do things myself but i need ideas for something all right i'm in the basement what can i do with this section this section right here first of all i'm considering putting the tv and stuff over there and maybe the couch over here but there's so much distance between the two wow nice work sony nice work but then again i have the chill bag so if i'm gaming right here i'm just gonna be like this or even just watching tv and by the way this tv is definitely temporary i want to get an affordable 65 inch for down here kind of similar to the one upstairs that's that's 4k i don't need anything overkill that right there is my nice tv i love that samsung tv maybe i'll probably get another 65 inch samsung tv for down here anyway i don't know i'm not completely sold on hooking up my consoles because then it requires all those adapters but i really want to play my dreamcast again now with the super nintendo classic nes classic on playstation classic i still don't have an nes classic but anyway eventually when i get that i can hook up all three down here to a modern tv without worrying about an input lag and anything like that but at the same time i have so many consoles that i do want to hook up like sega saturn and stuff like that and my nintendo 64. all my games right here including cruising usa this camera's doing a great job today nice job sonny nice job keep it up this is what a thousand dollars gets you anyway i need ideas guys i'm so sorry my voice sounds terrible today but you know what it's been worse it's been worse so i guess it's not that bad i cannot wait to spend more time down here and i know i know i say that every week i'm just trying to prioritize my time upstairs with uh twitch and everything anyway once my popcorn machine is uh down here which is probably going to go there my extra shelf is going to go here um and an extra keurig and mini fridge station actually that all might go right here or over there i don't know i don't know i obviously have plenty of room i just got to figure out what i need to do sony you suck today you just flat out suck yeah i understand it's low light but it's not that low life or a thousand dollar camera you should do better now he's running upstairs because he because he hurt a car so anyway that's my dilemma right now this is pretty much done aside from my keurig mini fridge and um popcorn maker but then i'll start spending time down here i promise i need to i love it down here i do but it's this area what do i want to do with that there's plenty of room so i'm thinking fitness but at the same time i'd rather my exercise room be in here i mean this isn't forever going to be maui's room i love maui but he does not need an entire room dedicated to just him and plus look at all this space this isn't like a tiny room i could i could do something in here it's not that small plenty of room to do stuff hence why they used to have a desk in here i guess this was the previous owner's office and then of course there is the bar the bar is going to be amazing i just got to get this broken down and then i'll actually have drinks down here oh wait duh the mini fridge is going to go over here that actually makes sense and the curie's going to go over here i'll just i'll just put a keurig over here on the bar okay cool so it's also a dilemma but i still don't know what to do about this area i don't know it's a lot of space for activities and i'm not making a step brother's reference okay maybe i am a little bit but look at it all there's got to be something i

hydrated well it's 223 and i'm already done streaming just wasn't a good night let's just say i got frustrated with uh apex legends and i uninstalled the game on stream the lack of ammo is so incredibly infuriating it's a great game like they did so many things right but the lack of ammo just gets me so frustrated so frustrated so i'm taking a break i understand that i'll come back in a week or two but yeah that's it for now that's it for now then i played siege which went okay i'm i'm tired so which doesn't help and of course i lost internet connection twice tonight twice while playing siege i don't think it's xfinity's fault i think there's something wrong with the electric here i don't know because the xfinity guy says he thinks it's like like a voltage problem and i noticed tonight well i noticed a while ago now and then this lights and that light slightly flicker slightly flicker so i think maybe it is like a wiring or voltage problem and kind of like surges it and i lose the internet for like literally a few seconds a few seconds so i don't know i don't know what's going on but i'm gonna have to figure it out i don't know if i'd get like an electrician out here or xfinity i'm not sure i'll consider my options if anything i'm going to try to move the internet connection upstairs because there's also a cable connection up there which is not currently active but i found like the rat's nest of cable connections in my attic you know that area in my office so i just gotta figure out which connection goes to what hook it up and then hook that connection up there and see if that works i don't know it just wasn't my night guys just wasn't my night it is what it is it's 2 30. i'm not going to bed for another hour to so i'll watch a movie my voice is mostly back and i'll make more merch oh shout out to kirsten and glitch mama for being my first customers they actually bought some merch off of me they actually bought merch guys thank you so much like internet connections aside and apex aside it was still a good night so thank you so much for your support that really means a lot to me i'm actually going to use the rest of my nights to continue building my my merch store so thank you good morning actually good afternoon i fell asleep right here on this couch last night and i woke up around 7 30 maybe like two hours of sleep then i went over to my bed but if i'll see you watching the island i love that movie i didn't fall asleep because it was boring i fell asleep because i was legit tired but i did add a couple more products to my merch uh so once again shout out to kirsten and glitch mama for being my first merch customers i love it my um link is right below check it out so last night i had all kinds of dreams i kept dreaming about apex legends i'm not completely done with the game i'm just distancing myself from the pc version for a bit i'm actually going to play it on xbox one like in a few minutes just to see how it runs i'm not going to stick with it i'm just not a big console shooter nowadays pc for the win on the way but i'm telling you when they not if not if when they do fix the ammo and weapon um quantities i guess you could say then i'll go back only if they also add solos or duos solos or whatever because i know apex is team based yeah yeah but if they add duos i think that's a lot easier to manage i mean i mean even in blackout i'm not a big quads fan quads are just a lot to keep track of anyway guys i'm signing off for now i'm going to make my coffee i'm going to import these clips start editing then head over to the parentals house because my mom's making roast beef tonight in this in the slow cooker wow so good so good with um carrots one of my favorite meals healthy too healthy so of course um editing now gives me more time to vlog at their house then i won't have to edit as much when i get home late tonight so with that said let's make it a good day i'll see you guys in a bit and i'm at the pretzel's house mom how are you you're at the pretzel's house parentals oh we had pretzels today hi guys speaking of pretzels is that really good pretzel stain open in the winter eli's yes yeah the the butter the small plates might be closed like january february best tell them yes best pretzels seriously best pretzels ever like they're just not pretzels they're so buttery the one you spilled you're drinking it no no that was embarrassing remember i had to go up and ask my second lemonade because mom spilled my drink no now i did by messing around never i i forget yeah all right i'm gonna go see blanks guys by the way i'm all caught up on editing feeling good that gives me much much more time to do whatever later i'm gonna weight balance shift i think dad's in here don't do that it just scared me so there's speakers you talk they're in here they suck no no one's bad this one is bad i don't think it's good quality for it to suddenly blow like sound like that bad but you know what i have three others you should have texted me i i would have just brought them over i just literally got it working i do the old-fashioned way if this has no sub out so i had to take the look at this i had to take the high line output go into the highlight and output of the subwoofer come out of there for the speakers cool yes bread bread do you make now i need a little computer in here yoda will just do it i have a newer one for you ignore this okay okay look at it newer one yeah brand new wait i don't understand why you said you're you're confused because you literally plug it in yeah hdmi no i want to be able to use i want to be able to connect my app my iphone to this for apple music this is 1978 technology put an apple tv on it like an older one does it have it oh this doesn't happen does it have an analog in no it's hdmi actually invite the older one no it's apple they're typically pretty pretty limited so so i like this receiver it says

it it's awesome you walk into the room it's like a nest thermostat but on steroids it has more features in the nest thermostat it does it really does see it does but the nest service has more

there so enjoy it and thank you so much for your support also in regards to patreon man what a big week for the first time ever i've created an exclusive subreddit that only patrons can create topics on the public can view it if you happen to find it that's cool you can comment on it but only patrons can start new topics so basically this new subreddit will be used for video topic ideas for me to talk about anything you guys want like video games real estate food pets whatever but um yeah the main purpose behind creating that site was to bring back the q a videos that i used to do years ago um and honestly i missed those days when you guys would ask me what are my thoughts on the new nintendo 3ds or macbook verse macbook air and stuff like that so now that defrancomedia.com is live this gives me so much more free time to start creating youtube videos again you guys have my word i will start creating more youtube videos again actually starting this week because my five year anniversary on patreon is coming up five years that's a long time especially considering so many people doubted me i love proving people wrong i do i just i just get off on that and please look at me as an example never not do something just because others say it's a bad idea i mean guys think about it if i were to listen to those hundreds of negative people on that patreon introduction video then i wouldn't be where i am today i wouldn't be in this house so please take my advice ignore the negativity actually no hold on embrace the negativity take that negativity in your hand put in your hearts and just try to prove those people wrong because i'm telling you i love that it's such a good feeling when people doubt me i think that's when i work best and the same can easily be said for you so get out there and start creating something and that's exactly why i created different media to inspire to motivate to get work done so do it do it you only live once stop saying you're gonna start something and just do it stop saying it and start doing it alright now that my motivational intro is out of the way how are you guys i'm going to make coffee i need it actually no i had a decent night sleep um i fell asleep last night around like 11 o'clock got like maybe an hour and a half nap and then i previewed the patient's only vlog which is over an hour and a half long very very long vlog please excuse my random voice cracks i need water but um yeah this should be a good weekend i don't know what i'm doing exactly besides playing apex legends and working on the frankie media and managing my patreon and all that stuff but should be a good weekend should be a good weekend um and i should be over the pretzels house tomorrow so plenty of family footage let's do it the best part of waking up is having a cup of coffee with maui hi maui god imagine if my voice sounded like that hi marie look at that booty okay okay not a move to play it's cool it's cool you're a good boy hi you want a treat you want a treat hey maui you wanna treat here you wanna treat i don't know what i just said here you go there you go shout out to cat owns me for these maui loves them he doesn't even chew him watch sometimes he can't pick him up oh he chewed it a little bit but he usually just swallows it whole all right let's do this guys let's make it a good productive fun-filled weekend starting with some coffee let me top that off a little bit i always top it off and i'm actually gonna have breakfast unfortunately i'm out of sausage i ate all my brownies this week i love brown and syrup oh my god it's so good i gotta fix my voice oh and i made tacos this week oh my first time making tacos in my new house dudes and dudettes let me tell you so good so so good i'm gonna make toast something simple hey maui your cookie oh man what a great week guys i'm just feeling good check this out isn't that awesome and i have it on setting three out of five we're about six if you want to keep going past the five it's blank but let's just assume it's six why have a basic toaster when you can have this and plus shout out to my parents they just gave it to me because they got the same model but one with four slices instead of two so mom dad thank you thank you and plus let's not forget my microwave has alexa support so that's just the kind of person i am i love technology so does maui maui what are you a mac or pc user mac good i like it it is time to publish the weekend vlog and the pigeons only of locker t vlog apex is pure chaos sometimes i can't wait to play this soon thank you again for all the positive feedback regarding the weekend vlog changes i'm actually really excited about friday being you know vlog day i mean i get to publish two vlogs every friday now every friday and now that we went through a whole week without a vlog you know not coming today i think people will you know hopefully quickly get used to the um friday schedule which i think is fine it's fine if anything it's the weekend vlog shout out to my friend ellie that actually makes perfect sense watching the weekend vlog on the weekend i like it yeah it's the previous weekend but does it really matter i don't think so my subreddit may be brand new but we already have 52 subscribers it's getting there also i made a decision the subreddit will be public to view and comment on um so check out the link right below but i'm still standing by my original uh vision with this and saying that only patrons can create new topics that way it's kind of balanced like non-patrons can get a sneak peek they can read they can comment but again only patrons can actually start new topics i think that's fair i think that's fair so enjoy that subreddit is right below please check it out because well as you can probably tell in recent years the youtube comment section in my opinion has kind of gone downhill in a way yeah there's still a ton of people out there but all the toxicity and whatever is just just overwhelming sometimes and with subreddit i truly believe we can create a positive um inspiring community so again right below check it out then just sec it keeps coughing i gotta say i don't usually watch ninja but the fact that he's playing apex legends it's kind of reigniting my interest in a way and i gotta say he's actually really good at the game i just asked my dad if he wanted rudders for lunch and he said sorry not today denied by my own family rejected seriously though what do they want do i have tuna again i just had tuna yesterday i mean i'm doing mcdonald's tonight that's definitely happening that is definitely happening so i don't want to have anything too bad for lunch hmm taquitos they make me poop chicken fries ah too boring i do have lunchables and i'm sometimes five years old now he's contemplating life what do you think about maui there's that cat there's that orange cat you see it hold on right around there that's like my newest visitor i believe he got into a flight with maui last night not like physically but they were through the glass and they're like but i i'm trying to get the i'm kidding come on now he's like let me add him let me add him hey kitty he actually approached me one night outside as i was taking the trash out but i don't know if he'd approach me now he actually looks really curious come here i have candy lots and lots of candy come on come on i don't like moments like this where i don't know what to have for lunch i might just have this and some snacks this isn't very filling wow it's amazing how quickly the sun warms that up it doesn't feel cold on the outside anymore yeah that cat is hardcore staring get him howie get him oh low battery gotta switch brb the cat was just over here he walked across the grass and walked over here kitty you know me and cats i'm typically good at befriending them i've always hated the word befriend because it's sounds like it's a bad thing sorry maui he's gone for now but who knows he might sneak up on you tonight assuming i was him last night yep he's across the street where he lives that now he's lying down on the front porch i wonder if he can see me i don't know i love cats can you tell i legit feel good lately like i've gotten all the bad news out of the way i've made a few people upset but i feel comfortable with myself now the vlogs are on a good day i have a new subreddit going i'm building positivity amongst patrons which is great amongst everyone actually i've been trying to think of a good quote for all the drama i've dealt with for the past few weeks and it goes something like this you have to make a few people upset to make most people happy i feel like i should like shorten that you need to upset a few to please most or something like that but guys it's the truth as with any change there's always going to be a handful of people who doesn't understand your perspective but thankfully most most people do yeah of course i've had people say david your youtube channel is dead no my youtube channel's not dead people overuse the word dead i always see people saying four nights dead if you really think fortnite's dead you gotta get your brain checked all right today's sad excuse of a lunch you know what maybe i'll have this in addition to soup that right there is a fine quality lunch god i'm dying to play this again in about an hour i'm so hyped definitely gonna get some practice in ninja's pretty good at this as he dies that's okay we all die we all die don't forget as with any battle royale game out there the odds are always against you so don't think you suck at a game if you die over and over again you're likely going to lose a lot more than you win unless you're like shroud who has insane aim that dude is crazy you got a good life i love this episode dude such a good episode making broccoli cheese soup don't drop the soap don't drop the soap so good and present i've been playing and if you don't know uh who the hell you think you are who the hell do you think he is i love the doc he's so full of himself he's great the doc's been using just his person this is personality is amazing i love razer this is your monthly reminder if you're not using a mouse with mmo buttons on the side you know one through 12 you're seriously missing out i i can't imagine using my keyboard to use like grenades and whatever that just doesn't make sense so if you're wondering i use three on my mouse four grenades and both blackouts and apex and i use five to heal in both blackouts and apex and i think i use shield repair on six and blackout unfortunately healing and shield repair are still separate i mean i'm sorry there's still um several commands but on one keybind in apex legend so i'm really really hoping to change that because i would much prefer to switch between the two like instantly without having to bring up that little wheel but um yeah let's do it i would link my razor mouse right below but they don't make it anymore sadly more coffee time time to go on twitch guys let's make it a good day stream number one of two is that okay with you sir remember you're a thick boy actually you're a thick bull what's back who is it what he definitely saw something man what was that i didn't see anything that was a really quick reaction i'm over here trying to play with him and he runs away he saw something maybe a bird was on the deck i don't know cats will be cats look all the natural light in here right now isn't this a beautiful thing i love it and i still need to properly decorate my uh my wall over here it's a nice wall isn't it it's a nice wall my mom's actually jealous of that wall it's got to put stuff on there i don't know what i'm picturing like a mirror i actually wouldn't mind like a large mirror some kind of decorative mirror maybe it's a shiplap wall so it deserves something nice well they have it another successful stream i gotta say having lights under there really helps complete how this looks check it out let's turn these off right look at that it looks so much better with them on doesn't it it's not bad it's amazing what a little bit of light can do especially over here i'm so glad i moved these leds from down there on my wall noisy board right there anyway um the leds were back here but i recently put them under the desk which i think really makes it look that much better check that out what a difference what a difference and next up i know i keep saying it but leds will go back here i just have to get around to doing it because i always find myself busy doing something turn the old keurig off love this thing keurig k elites if anybody wants to buy one i'll link it right below on amazon it's been perfect and it's got a ton of size options look at that typically it's three options this one gives you five size options which is pretty cool i love it it's just been great ignore that mess i need the cleaning table a bit and mario's being lit up like a mother i mean look at that look at that getting text the leds make this room truly look so different now i got to start thinking about that corner what should i do over there let me know right below i'm still not deciding on cubes i don't know if i even want to put a bunch of figures over there that might be worthy of something else i don't know i don't know eventually one day if i'm ever being on twitch i want to do something like the doc does where he has a separate uh part of his room or studio or whatever he calls it where he walks over to the green screen and he does these scenes and this could actually be a perfect wall for a green screen where i stand here and just kind of do stuff but i am nowhere near nowhere near that kind of popularity on twitch nowhere near at all but maybe one day goals right you got to set goals i'm going to feed maui and head out for dinner and of course coming down here check it out more leds i don't have these lights one that often but i do have them set up in case i ever want to turn them on boom check that out love it look at that combo it looks so good and i actually have my windows open today letting lots of natural light in during the day oh he sees the cat he's this guy here we go it's going down guys see i can't see it but he can because cats have insane vision wait for it now is there a cat out there i don't see anything all right maui is it time to eat honey it's time to eat now and then i like to check into my own streams my vods just to see how the quality looks looks pretty good actually looks really good it's past seven o'clock and i still haven't left guys thank you so much for all the nice and positive comments on the latest weekend vlog really really means a lot to me i just want you guys to know that i truly truly do appreciate you yeah i haven't won any games i'm just saying that because i don't know it's been mentally tough for me lately but thank you thank you i promise i'm not going to dwell on it moving forward i just want you to know that you are appreciated all right uh what was going to say oh shout out to someone for recommending that really expensive counter um it's like an led sign that can track youtube subscribers twitch subscribers like twitter followers all that stuff thing is i've considered that before but it's 200 dollars i might just suck it up and buy it i mean two hundred dollars is a lot of money for a sign but i might just treat myself to it um it would be really nice to put on the shelf in the background for instance right around here on my shelf i think it would look really nice and you can actually see it um whereas right now my monitor is behind me and you can't see that but if i put the sign right here up here or whatever then yeah you can actually see it but right here on the shelf contains most of my amiibo so i don't know where i would put them i don't i don't want to shift them down if the sign can fit right here then yeah i'll consider it or i'll put a shelf within the shelf i don't know we'll see we'll see i love apex guys i'm hungry it is time to head out i need food i will see you at i don't know mcdonald's i kind of want to go to target but i know i don't need to go to target i like these guys but maybe i'll go you see that white balance shift these leds in this camera they don't get along let's go oh wait i see you in that green shirt you're looking down aren't you got a couple people in last week's vlog with that comment that was fun anyway at mcdonald's i know i know i'm getting fat you guys point that out every week believe me i i see myself in a mirror believe it or not but sometimes you just gotta treat yourself right however i will say i did buy a lot of things for meals at dinner at dinner to cook at home for dinner i i think my mind is getting worse i think i'm getting worse i got fries oh wow oh my god whoa go to mcdonald's right now get some fries all right so oh my god first of all the cheesy bacon fries are good i don't see myself getting them again honestly um they're just kind of like a one-time thing they're good but to be honest they're nothing revolutionary i mean mcdonald's fries are just fine the way they are hence why i haven't orgasm every time i put them in my mouth so but donald you tried you tried that's all that matters but take it as a couple man their fries are perfectly what they are they're so good they're so good so as i started to say i'm embarrassed because i got two sandwiches they have a special in the app if you buy one sandwich you get a second sandwich for 25 cents 25 cents and i need to be nice and full for tonight's stream so i got a big mac and the filleto fish now hear me out the filet of fish is not that filling so that's why i got that i could have easily gotten a double cheeseburger which i almost did but i don't want too much beef you got to balance out your fish with your beef when you boof through your favorite whatever you know you got to keep them equal on both sides so all right dude mcdonald's how do you do it is the oil used or what i will say though five guys which is right behind mcdonald's has some really good fries all right i've showed you guys enough seriously these are the best mcdonald's fries i've had in weeks i mean they're typically very good but these are like scorchingly hot mcdonald's well done well done all right see you guys are home from my target hall i'm home and maui ran out with the garage door open thankfully he stopped right here and i grabbed him scared the crap out of me now chances are he would have been fine i would have just caught him but still there's other cats out there i don't want a cat fight breaking out hi maui it's funny as i found him outside years ago but ever since i moved to this area in my old house he's become a house cat i just don't want anything to happen in the world right maui safety first hi hi that's actually how we found blinks too it's a pattern pat turn pat took a turn what's that from comment below okay target haul pretend you care here we go here we go i actually got a lot of good stuff tonight eggs ah my size it's not not good for you but i just need easy lunch ideas boneless chicken bites buffalo style i figured why not stovers mac and cheese love stouffer's a chicken pop bye easy dinner one night another snack tray stupid me left this tray out overnight in my room i think last weekend and i woke up the next day and i found it just sitting on my desk and i'm like you're an idiot and yeah there's pepperoni and cheese i'm not going to take the chance of that going bad it's not worth the risk all right so i got more capri sun it's been a while i haven't tried these yet shout out to my dude danny minnick he says pacific cooler is very good so i went with the 10 pouch box if i like this then i'll buy myself a 30 pouch box for upstairs in the gaming room these could be good pulled pork quesadilla right check this out this could be awesome or terrible bacon flavored ranch hmm i'm going to try that with the buffalo chicken yeah baby and parmesan cheese check it out check it out i'm gonna i'm gonna be cooking this week coming up mild as opposed to strong anyway italian sausage i'm gonna combine that with some pasta found myself some regattone there you go and rotini she's trying to cook more guys i'm trying to cook more chef already for my son chef party for my son pasta from i mean sauce from maui let's get this off that's all for me guys bacon dude i have not had bacon in this house yet all right little little uh tip for you don't make bacon on the stove all right make bacon in the oven so much crispier and much less much less messy it's just less messy what's happening to me and milk there you go pretty successful target haul i mean i don't expect to get all this pasta and sausage i figured why not try this this could be a good meal and it's not really that bad for you it is a good night tis a good night all right i'm gonna put all this fun stuff away um heat up my big mac i guess watch the office maybe hop in the shower go on twitch stream for like six or seven hours it's gonna be a long night guys it's gonna be a long night so get ready not that you're gonna see much of it because i'm gonna be busy doing that stuff but just enjoy either way you know what after my oh serious question for you guys nope i'm not i'm not trying to be funny but if you ever like watched a cat poop yeah like is it normal for the balls to like fly out like a cannonball what the no i have a lot of gas built up he knows maui dude he shoots them out like a weapon they come out so fast like contents under pressure jeez oh god i'm hot i got the video oh dude if you told joey that he died many hours later maui would you like to tell the viewers what time it is alexa what time is it it's 6 20 am my god 6 20 am guys thank you so much for your support amazing times in siege and especially apex legends i didn't get any wins tonight unfortunately we came so close a couple times there was there was one match where i wish i could have redone my strategy because i should have handled i mean honestly we all should have handled it a little differently um but it is what it is you know what you make mistakes to learn from those mistakes and i know it's just a game but to me it's not just a game it's about winning ah but despite that fx legends is a ton of fun like i am honestly loving the game it's so so good and it came out of nowhere like it came out of nowhere okay i'm gonna have my bowl of cereal watch some anchorman on plexi but that's how i fall asleep it's gonna be like 7 7 30 so i'm definitely sleeping in it's the weekend who cares i'll see you after the cut oh my god i'm just now getting my day started and i'm not going to tell you what time it is i went to bed around like 7 7 30 in the morning i woke up so much today like over and over again i was because i was dreaming about stupid freaking apex legends over here it really is a great game it does so much right the banner system for those who don't know you can basically walk around the map and there's these large banners and you can see the top killer you know the kill leader you can see the champion and sometimes i see my name up with her it's just the best feeling also we've seen summit up there that we found summit then i think um flares killed no knock summit then um danny killed him then yesterday we saw king richard as the champion in our match so we started panicking i'm telling you the batter system is amazing more battle royales need to do that it's just so much fun also the revive system is so good when you know you have to take your teammates banner and take them over to the respawn station my voice isn't all there guys um so i'm gonna i'm gonna take a little easy today this weekend vlogs probably not gonna be over an hour long if it is i'll be shocked i just want to chill today make more coffee eat lots of food get get lots of energy in because tonight is going to be another late night but first i have a question for you guys i usually like to do things myself but i need ideas for something all right i'm in the basement what can i do with this section this section right here first of all i'm considering putting the tv and stuff over there and maybe the couch over here but there's so much distance between the two wow nice work sony nice work but then again i have the chill bag so if i'm gaming right here i'm just gonna be like this or even just watching tv and by the way this tv is definitely temporary i want to get an affordable 65 inch for down here kind of similar to the one upstairs that's that's 4k i don't need anything overkill that right there is my nice tv i love that samsung tv maybe i'll probably get another 65 inch samsung tv for down here anyway i don't know i'm not completely sold on hooking up my consoles because then it requires all those adapters but i really want to play my dreamcast again now with the super nintendo classic nes classic on playstation classic i still don't have an nes classic but anyway eventually when i get that i can hook up all three down here to a modern tv without worrying about an input lag and anything like that but at the same time i have so many consoles that i do want to hook up like sega saturn and stuff like that and my nintendo 64. all my games right here including cruising usa this camera's doing a great job today nice job sonny nice job keep it up this is what a thousand dollars gets you anyway i need ideas guys i'm so sorry my voice sounds terrible today but you know what it's been worse it's been worse so i guess it's not that bad i cannot wait to spend more time down here and i know i know i say that every week i'm just trying to prioritize my time upstairs with uh twitch and everything anyway once my popcorn machine is uh down here which is probably going to go there my extra shelf is going to go here um and an extra keurig and mini fridge station actually that all might go right here or over there i don't know i don't know i obviously have plenty of room i just got to figure out what i need to do sony you suck today you just flat out suck yeah i understand it's low light but it's not that low life or a thousand dollar camera you should do better now he's running upstairs because he because he hurt a car so anyway that's my dilemma right now this is pretty much done aside from my keurig mini fridge and um popcorn maker but then i'll start spending time down here i promise i need to i love it down here i do but it's this area what do i want to do with that there's plenty of room so i'm thinking fitness but at the same time i'd rather my exercise room be in here i mean this isn't forever going to be maui's room i love maui but he does not need an entire room dedicated to just him and plus look at all this space this isn't like a tiny room i could i could do something in here it's not that small plenty of room to do stuff hence why they used to have a desk in here i guess this was the previous owner's office and then of course there is the bar the bar is going to be amazing i just got to get this broken down and then i'll actually have drinks down here oh wait duh the mini fridge is going to go over here that actually makes sense and the curie's going to go over here i'll just i'll just put a keurig over here on the bar okay cool so it's also a dilemma but i still don't know what to do about this area i don't know it's a lot of space for activities and i'm not making a step brother's reference okay maybe i am a little bit but look at it all there's got to be something i can do down here something let me know i'm gonna watch my voice eat some food enjoy my day obsess over apex such a good game such a good game i just wish i was better at it i'm calling for a win tonight you'll see i'm calling for a win yeah i mean i'm definitely better in blackout that's for sure just making some scrambled eggs very very late breakfast i'm hungry though plus i've yet to make eggs in this house yep it's been that long and they're done oh baby ain't coffee you know it's funny the first time i saw anchorman years ago i didn't see what the big deal is but nowadays i'm loving it and this scene is hilarious jack johnson and tom o'leary waiting for you right here you destroyed the only thing i love all right there it is what do you love i love poetry and a glass of scotch and of course my friend baxter here well guess what now this is happening excuse me excuse me what are you doing it's so horrible that's how i roll oh my god the first time i saw that scene i couldn't believe it more coffee time time not that coffee helps my throat but i'm an addict speaking of i need to order 120 more single serves san francisco bay is my favorite brand it's linked right below people ask me that all the time excellent brand eco-friendly affordable and really really good coffee seriously check it it's so out plus the steel serves look incredible took it out they actually come in like these vacuum sealed bags okay this camera is great i love it but okay it's not perfect you think it'd be better for a thousand dollars especially the audio the audio is just so bad but the video quality is incredible yes yes what is this anchorman 2 is actually really good as well my favorite scene in acumen 2 is when brick goes to his own funeral and he thinks he's dead and then the other guy's yelling like no you're a brick you're alive he's like no not why why it's so funny how do these actors do that without losing their voice maybe they do lose their voice i don't know i don't know but man if that was me i would i would lose my voice for days i have a very sensitive voice if you haven't noticed plus i gotta save it for twitch davidstwitch.com if you're not following me please do so it's

pullover hoodie a zip hoodie and a long sleeve t-shirt so check it out i'll link it right below if you do buy merch tweet me at david defranco and i'll give you a retweet stay hydrated well it's 223 and i'm already done streaming just wasn't a good night let's just say i got frustrated with uh apex legends and i uninstalled the game on stream the lack of ammo is so incredibly infuriating it's a great game like they did so many things right but the lack of ammo just gets me so frustrated so frustrated so i'm taking a break i understand that i'll come back in a week or two but yeah that's it for now that's it for now then i played siege which went okay i'm i'm tired so which doesn't help and of course i lost internet connection twice tonight twice while playing siege i don't think it's xfinity's fault i think there's something wrong with the electric here i don't know because the xfinity guy says he thinks it's like like a voltage problem and i noticed tonight well i noticed a while ago now and then this lights and that light slightly flicker slightly flicker so i think maybe it is like a wiring or voltage problem and kind of like surges it and i lose the internet for like literally a few seconds a few seconds so i don't know i don't know what's going on but i'm gonna have to figure it out i don't know if i'd get like an electrician out here or xfinity i'm not sure i'll consider my options if anything i'm going to try to move the internet connection upstairs because there's also a cable connection up there which is not currently active but i found like the rat's nest of cable connections in my attic you know that area in my office so i just gotta figure out which connection goes to what hook it up and then hook that connection up there and see if that works i don't know it just wasn't my night guys just wasn't my night it is what it is it's 2 30. i'm not going to bed for another hour to so i'll watch a movie my voice is mostly back and i'll make more merch oh shout out to kirsten and glitch mama for being my first customers they actually bought some merch off of me they actually bought merch guys thank you so much like internet connections aside and apex aside it was still a good night so thank you so much for your support that really means a lot to me i'm actually going to use the rest of my nights to continue building my my merch store so thank you good morning actually good afternoon i fell asleep right here on this couch last night and i woke up around 7 30 maybe like two hours of sleep then i went over to my bed but if i'll see you watching the island i love that movie i didn't fall asleep because it was boring i fell asleep because i was legit tired but i did add a couple more products to my merch uh so once again shout out to kirsten and glitch mama for being my first merch customers i love it my um link is right below check it out so last night i had all kinds of dreams i kept dreaming about apex legends i'm not completely done with the game i'm just distancing myself from the pc version for a bit i'm actually going to play it on xbox one like in a few minutes just to see how it runs i'm not going to stick with it i'm just not a big console shooter nowadays pc for the win on the way but i'm telling you when they not if not if when they do fix the ammo and weapon um quantities i guess you could say then i'll go back only if they also add solos or duos solos or whatever because i know apex is team based yeah yeah but if they add duos i think that's a lot easier to manage i mean i mean even in blackout i'm not a big quads fan quads are just a lot to keep track of anyway guys i'm signing off for now i'm going to make my coffee i'm going to import these clips start editing then head over to the parentals house because my mom's making roast beef tonight in this in the slow cooker wow so good so good with um carrots one of my favorite meals healthy too healthy so of course um editing now gives me more time to vlog at their house then i won't have to edit as much when i get home late tonight so with that said let's make it a good day i'll see you guys in a bit and i'm at the pretzel's house mom how are you you're at the pretzel's house parentals oh we had pretzels today hi guys speaking of pretzels is that really good pretzel stain open in the winter eli's yes yeah the the butter the small plates might be closed like january february best tell them yes best pretzels seriously best pretzels ever like they're just not pretzels they're so buttery the one you spilled you're drinking it no no that was embarrassing remember i had to go up and ask my second lemonade because mom spilled my drink no now i did by messing around never i i forget yeah all right i'm gonna go see blanks guys by the way i'm all caught up on editing feeling good that gives me much much more time to do whatever later i'm gonna weight balance shift i think dad's in here don't do that it just scared me so there's speakers you talk they're in here they suck no no one's bad this one is bad i don't think it's good quality for it to suddenly blow like sound like that bad but you know what i have three others you should have texted me i i would have just brought them over i just literally got it working i do the old-fashioned way if this has no sub out so i had to take the look at this i had to take the high line output go into the highlight and output of the subwoofer come out of there for the speakers cool yes bread bread do you make now i need a little computer in here yoda will just do it i have a newer one for you ignore this okay okay look at it newer one yeah brand new wait i don't understand why you said you're you're confused because you literally plug it in yeah hdmi no i want to be able to use i want to be able to connect my app my iphone to this for apple music this is 1978 technology put an apple tv on it like an older one does it have it oh this doesn't happen does it have an analog in no it's hdmi actually invite the older one no it's apple they're typically pretty pretty limited so so i like this receiver it says vintage seven this is one of the first digital receivers like they came out with it looks really nice shut up everybody sounds fine though back then we had like sharp can't feel that that's sharp very short i heard i caught myself all the time on it really no oh this is a cd player too i forgot about that it's not funny it's a cd burner this is a digital audio server this is actually um it has probably two or two or three hundred cds in there it's like plex but for music right yes all my cds are in here speaking of we're going to watch anchorman tonight are you hyped tyrese yeah but i need see it says on-screen display i can't access the

back up david got an ecobee from the manufacturer at no cost did a review product review we were going to do it in the office hvac system but the office hvac system was a heat pump if you didn't know

hooked it up to the system in this house it is amazing i did not know it was alexa compatible me neither and we'll talk later on so cool so i love it it's awesome you walk into the room it's like a nest thermostat but on steroids it has more features in the nest thermostat it does it really does see it does but the nest service has more innovative in terms of the wheel like i love i love how it feels and it turns on automatically when you walk in front of it so does the ecobee no it doesn't it does does it it touches let me say let me see then sneak in there all right let me see here on hold on let's see hold on okay okay wait no hold on the screen okay all right all right but i will say the transition of mine looks better when it turns on but i do like how it's in standby then it always
