Happy New Year! 2023 is here!!

Happy New Year everyone! John here - we’ve put 2022 behind us, good riddance. A lot of nice things happened but it seems like 2023 has the potential to be a big year! WE CAN TAKE THIS MONSTER PIRATE SLIDE 🛝🏴‍☠️ !! NO CHALLENGE is too big. I’m finishing up the next video and documentary with Peter, first narration today. The big goal, 1M subscribers on the main channel! To do that, I need way more main channel content. I’ll keep up the highly edited content as usual but add i...

The first edited episode of 2023 is —

RABBIT ISLAND! 2023 is the Year of the Rabbit and I’ve been slowly filming this episode from summer into today’s shoot. I was told by rangers that WINTER is the best time to visit because the rabbits aren’t over heated and come out for food more. Well, it’s raining today, no tourists so I bet they’ll be quite hungry tomorrow AM! The next episode is 1) Japanese Speed Gift Wrapping 2) Wagyu Olympics, How Japanese Rank Wagyu Brands then 3) Rabbit Island. WE ARE GOING TO HIT 1M subs by ...

Opps - but here it is!

I did this LIVE but the stream was "unlisted" on Prism Live Studio app ... I was wondering, where is everyone! hahaha
Anyhow, I'm leaving on the Shinkansen tomorrow around 10:30 and should be live streaming the boarding again. It's a tradition now! See you tomorrow. Heading back to Rabbit Island to finish an episode shoot.

Personal Robot, translator, sensory impairment assistant — NINJA Friend 🥷🏽

I am with Ninnin now, a work-in-progress robot that has a lot of practice applications. I’ll be using it as a translator assistant for travel but this little Ninja can also help those with hearing, visual and speech impairments. I wanted to live stream FROM the robot but I think the camera isn’t HD and ready for the yet. What’s also cool is that we will be in INO, KOCHI, a beautiful small town in Shikoku. See you at 11:00am JST ^_^ -John

Meeting Kevin in Osaka for a bit!

We’re stopping in Osaka for just a bit to film a scene I need for an episode and Kevin said he’s coming out to say hi, perhaps we’ll do a stream around 15:30-15:45 +/- some time on GO. It’s been — AGES since we saw Kev. Leo and Kanae in tow, we’re slowing on the way.

December 2022 Postcard "End of Year" 🐇

Hi Everyone! It's December and I'll be sending this card to Postcard Club, Daimyo and Samurai community members. Since 2023 is the Year of the Rabbit, why not introduce our Rabbit Island 🐇 experience from TODAY! I just put in the order and it should go out by Wednesday 12/14. There's a chance these will arrive AFTER the New Year which would have been probable no matter when I sent it in December. I'll talk more bout this Rabbit experience in our Pattern Q&A this weekend. NOTE: Please d...

Improved GO! mobile live streaming explained

HEVC, that’s it. YouTube confirmed to me they still use h.264 and Prism Live which is started 2 days ago uses HEVC h.265 which uses less bandwidth. Make MORE with LESS! So far the results have been wonderful but — I can’t effectively schedule them yet. That option is on the app so I believe they’ll add it soon. Also, the front facing camera is in reverse but I can’t toggle on the flip camera button yet (probably for iOS) so that seems to be coming soon too. All good things. I’ll k...
