SSAB - February 24, 2025

After an eight year hiatus, to the day almost!, a return to the classroom! Online at least.Voice is sore, haven’t talked that much that often in a long time.Not sure it will be the same in person as it is online. I kinda like online since it can be done so quickly, but then you just need to talk cause not sure if the students even understand what’s going on.Also, quite sure even more now that this could be automated.New video up on the language vlog: to the military museum!! Getting some views on this one. New Substack out as well. Also recording those.Working on a language check. Aiming to be more entertaining in the Chinese language, too, ie, snip and cut ums and uhs.Workout in! Not really feeling it this morning but went for a token workout. Afternoon went for a 6.50 km run in 41.09. Then: four rounds of 40x double unders, 3x one arm push ups, 10 tuck jumps, 10 assisted pistol squats, 10 two hand kettle bell swings and 10 switching. Then added some more kbell work after.Donate to the show!
