This Night Sky News we're chatting about what JWST results we've been treated to this week, including a beautiful spectrum of one of the most distant galaxies known, GN-z11. Plus there's been a claim of observational evidence of SMBH growth that can't be accounted for which some researchers have claimed is evidence that black holes are responsible for the accelerated expansion of the Universe (i.e. dark energy). This one hurt my head to film, so let's dive in to understand it together.

👩🏽💻 I'm Dr. Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford (Christ Church). I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online - you can ask me! My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.

The sentences "This is my area of expertise" and "I don't buy it", following it up by peer reviewing these papers on the spot are just phenomenal. This is science at work. More of this Becky!
...i both agree and disagree.....it has a limited effet over time as the black holes die (yes black holes eject enegy(matter) )...but it can take millions if not billions of years... but its true this affect both the size, density and how much the black hole distort space-time... (eintein predicted a linear correlation between mass/energy and T[space-time stress tensor] wich i belive isent accurate enugh...
@@Patrik6920it takes more than billions of years... a lot more. As I remember for now even totally lonely BH that are not accreting material are not shrinking due to CMB outweighing Hawking radiation.
@@oskarskalski2982 ..welll its not that simple....if space-time changes... anything that has mass will be affected... regardless...
More of this and more Universe Juice.
Yes! Dr. Becky's whole discussion from 31:48 onwards is a beautiful showcase of why science should be left to the experts. A layperson reads the research primed by news as 'Dark Energy solved! it's BHs!' and thinks "hurpederp, I now know all about DE and BHs, thanks science!'. Dr. Becky show's us how scientists/experts consider a paper and criticize it respectfully while adding its data to their body of knowledge regarding the ongoing 'discussion' they are having towards finding the Truth. Textbook critical thinking and prudent reservation of judgement all wrapped up in a concise summary for all to appreciate.
This is why I love this channel.
Wow! This is a *Much More* technical and in-depth monthly video than usual Dr. Becky! When other published papers "encroach" on your area of expertise then you really get energized and it really shows. Kind of tough to follow the really technical bits here, but you can follow along and get the gist of it, I suppose.
Very nicely done Dr. Becky! Thanks for this.
I really enjoy how you skeptically looked at these papers. First explaining the data, their model and what it implies, and how you interpret the results and the paper. It’s great to see a reminder that good science involves disagreement, and isn’t always as simple as ‘testing the hypothesis’ because data is messy, and assumptions always need to be questioned.
This episode is an excellent example of why i love your channel. You break down cutting edge science and explain things well so that a lay audience can understand them. In this particular episode, you did a great job of structuring the presentation so that concepts presented in the early part helped in understanding later parts. And you shine a spotlight on how science is done, by measurement, analysis, publishing, predictions, further measurements and debate. Thanks so much for being our go to astrophysicist!
Thanks Fred! Very kind words and much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed the video
There are engineers and farmers and mechanics all over this country who have a better grasp on the universe than these Einstein quacks.
@@saltybits9954 okay then, explain how black holes work if you're so smart.
totally. she's got such a gift for this. I think Her and Anton Petrov are my two favorite youtubers for turning stuff that's way over my head into stuff i can actually ponder in my own time.
plus, now i get to imagine black holes burping, and that's pretty good lol
@@saltybits9954
these?
and when you post a lecture on your take on the universe?
Ever since hearing this dark energy theory, I've been asking myself "Wonder what Becky has to say about this!"
Same here
WWBS. 😄
Have been thinking the same. She is awesome, as usual. Her reply is much appreciated. 👍
I like the proposal made by Sabine Hossenfelder that the universe is really made from Dark Humour, it seems to fit the observations. 😂
I wonder what Kip Thorne and Sean Carroll have to say about it!
You are by far the coolest astrophysicist I know of and what I really love about you and your videos is your ability to explain complex astrophysics in a way that even I can understand.
And THAT is a very useful skill when looking for funding.
The Cosmo Coupling is a very intriguing idea. One thing I like about it is that it attempts to explain dark energy without having to hypothesize new particles we don't know anything about or new physics that we also don't know anything about. The other thing I like is that the math (although I can't do it myself) seems to hang together, at least that's what astrophysicists such as yourself and Leonard Susskind are saying.
I have also been watching vids where Leonard Susskind explains his ideas about ER=EPR in which he shows how black holes can (at least in mathematical theory) be expanding on the inside.
Although what you say about direct observational evidence of what's inside the event horizon of a black hole being nearly (or maybe completely) impossible to obtain, others are attempting to mathematically model what might, or what could, be going on in there.
No wonder you're so passionate about it. It is truly quite interesting and sits at the cutting edge of cosmology today.
Great analysis on the new papers Becky! I knew this was your area of expertise, so had been very curious to get your take. Glad you added context by talking about your own research results about the source of growth of black holes.
Woah that Lyman-a break animation made it really clear what is going on, great visualisation!
Thanks very much for explaining the super-complicated dark energy / black hole growth relationship. I needed this! (I smile at the little bit of debate drama in your corner of science. I understand this is how science works. Can't wait to hear more!)
You are the first youtuber I've seen that explained the dark energy-blackhole connection in anything approximating coherence.
Thank you. This is why I watch your show regularly.
Thank you very much.
I have to agree with you bmobert becky has worked out that dark energy remains as the three forces of nature were stripped of dark mattter having been disposed of by nutrinos in the area where the black hole is forming.
Well unfortunately black holes and dark energy have nothing to do with dark energy 😑that’s misleading i would upload a video about the topic but the truth is none of it matters 😑people will ALWAYS be people 😑as no matter what science says people won’t care 😑we are repeating our lives no one cares we will never exist again no one cares 😑as mass shootings war will continue so rather then telling the truth you have to let others deal with the truth on their own 😑as I would ask you what do you want RED or BLUE 😐
There's no such thing as "dark energy". Its what they call everything they cant explain.
@@saltybits9954 I agree 😐I have also thought of a new hypothesis for black holes and galaxies 🙂I thought of it on January 15-2023 🙂I call it the GHCH 😎so why have I not explained it ? 🧐it’s beacuse I understand something you don’t 😑I do NOT need need some lame ass Nobel prize and 2 people will ALWAYS be people 😑and 3 you will be forgotten anyway 😐so that’s why I don’t talk about it 😐

Thank you so much for discussing all of this. It's so interesting to see someone with knowledge of the subject break down these papers into understandable information and show us where the flaws may be.
Or Truths , if you're a Believer., Optimus, 🤪
Good video. I continue to like the fact that you bring up and discuss papers from the current literature. This adds to the critical analysis of the topic being discussed. Keep up the good work!
Wow you really explain this in a coherent manner. Introducing the current thoughts to a person like me who rarely considers these things.
I found I could understand the issues you presented and was intrigued.
Your skill in communicating complex topics is amazing.
Thank you for reply and for the update on that recent paper, Dr. Becky. I'm currently getting serious about studying astronomy and astrophysics and I appreciate your ability to explain complex investigations into black holes and dark energy in terms lay people can understand. You are providing a very needed and welcome service.
Black holes have nothing do do with dark matter or energy EVERYTHING about the universe is misleading 😑in fact I personally came up with a new theory for galaxies 🙂it was a hypothesis I PERSONALLY came up with on January 15 2023 🙂I call it the GHCH the Galaxy Hurricane CREATION Hypothesis 🙂I would go deep into detail but I’m not just going to give you the answer😐you have to find out the answer for your self 😑so I’ll ask you what do you want ?🧐RED or BLUE ?🧐if you say BLUE the story ends and I’ll leave you alone 😐but if you say RED you stay in wonderland and I’ll tell you how deep the rabbit hole goes 😐remember I’m NOT doing this for some lame ass Nobel prize as people will just forget and money is NOT unlimited 😑all I’m offering is the truth no matter how cruel it is 😑nothing more and nothing less 😑so blue or red 🧐? The choice is yours 😑
I know this is an old video now, but did you read the paper? Instead of relying on an "expert" to interpret something for you, why not just try yourself?
great show Dr. Becky there is so much more to learn about this stuff and you are always on top of the latest news
Thanks for all the news, dr. Becky! 😊
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Astronomy is so fascinating and these videos are a great way to get a taste of what's going on in that field. Thank you Dr Becky :)
Great video this month!
As always, i appreciate the detail.
People can look up the stuff they don't know (and maybe will be inspired to); but if the detail isn't there to begin with....
You just got name checked by PBS Spacetime! You're knocking out out of the park! Good form, Dr. Becky!
Thank you for the thorough breakdown of the paper discussing the dark energy link to black holes. The idea isn't that far fetched actually, but I'm always skeptical when the leading intuition is "the maths turns out neat". The logical leap in assumptions to provide "evidence" was even more damning. I'm not saying there is nothing to the idea, it could be that there genuinely is a link between the negative pressure of vacuum and black holes via this coupling, but it's gonna be a lot harder to provide evidence for it than oversimplifying it like these researchers did. Still, solid idea, solid effort.
I was waiting this video after the recent article. Thanks
Thank you for the breakdown of all these details. Amazing how the science and understandings are so well explained by you.
Dr. Becky I've downloaded the *Abel* image and you were correct, I am not disappointed at all. The wondrous galaxy and universe in the background, just mesmerising, awe-inspiring indeed. Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work 👍👍
Love how you are always able to take cutting edge research like this and break it down for lay people like us. Thank you very much! BTW I’d love to hear your take on Voids like the Bootes Void. Very fascinated to hear if anyone knows why these huge areas are virtually empty.
From now I will refer to Dark Energy as "Universe Juice", and there's no going back from here
I'm going with Brian.
@@tommylakindasorta3068 I hear Brian calls it "Universe Juice" as well
@@zzzaphod8507 🤣
We should petition the IAU to change the term.
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 It might be fun if they changed dark energy's name to "Pluto", just to confuse everyone.
I've really loved this channel for a while, but you're slowly becoming one of my favorites for sure. I LOVED this video
This is a fantastic episode. Thanks so much for the time you put into those.
To something more earthly. Is the t shirt you are wearing available on your merchandise link?
I know it is a very silly question in the grand scale of things, but it's brilliant!
I love that the dark (Brian) energy theory with black holes falls totally in your area of your expertise. An awesome review that I've personally been waiting for you to address since it was released. Thank you so much!
Why they call it dark?
@Suresh Baliyan cause you can't see it
@@leapy99 if i want to simulate blackhole in my Lab, what you expect in result? A disk rotating, get accilerated , expand in its size and what more?
@@leapy99 Dark in this case (Dark Energy and also Dark Matter) mostly refers to how it's not well-understood
@@sureshbaliyan3655 Old English expression "being kept in the dark", meaning you don't know what is going on. The astrophysicists are in "the dark" with regards to what "dark matter" and "dark energy" actually means. As Dr Becky stated, we could just call it "Brian" 🤣
Dr. Becky TEACH! Wow this was imo the best video I've seen from you and on this topic. Really appreciate and enjoy the presentation of math equations combined with succinct explanations. As always love your passion, clarity of speech, cute humor and science! I'm beginning to trust you.
Great to hear your full name, much more professional 😊
Love how you explain events.
Thanks for the updates 😊
Dr. Becky. Thank you. I was listening to the black hole/ dark matter part of this video and you stated that nothing can go faster than the speed of light "Under the laws of physics as we understand it". I studied aerospace enginery in university and I loved that before we broke the sound barrier the was a far amount of people who thought we couldn't go faster than sound. Right now our best understanding is nothing can move faster than light. There are theories about warping space/time... these are work arounds. I hope there are kids studying now who don't let our current limitation keep them from proving us wrong. Always great info, you're keeping my love of space alive. I heading to the Nightscapers conference in May as I go deeper into astrophotography. Your channel keeps me motivated! Thanks again
Dr. Becky, that image with the galaxies is absolutely mind blowing! The odds, at least in my estimation, are pretty good that there is/was/will be a being on a planet in one of those galaxies looking at an image like the one we see, whose mind is blown too! Absolutely amazing!
Thank you, Dr. Becky! You're the first big science communicator I've seen that did a proper peer review and found that 2019 paper! My PhD advisor is one of the authors on the new papers and I've been following this research since its conception (though my main research is in cosmic rays). This all came about because Croker et. al. found a legitimate bug in Friedmann's equation (an equation derived from Einstein's field equations to describes the expansion of the universe), and were able to show that stresses interior to compact objects, like black holes, should contribute to the dynamics of the scale factor (scale factor = the parameter that says how much the universe has stretched between times A and B). They describe the bug succinctly in their 2022 paper "Well-defined equations of motion without constraining external sources." It's this part that I'm most excited about because - assuming that this bug is real - no matter what, we will learn something about the environment inside black holes through cosmological observations!
I love this, I strive for this all the time and coach my team members about this all time (in computational biology):. Really dig into the unexpected it's either a bug in the code or new science! Either way we need to know
Debugging scientific theories sounds a lot more fun than debugging code.
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 I do both. Debugging code is a quicker reward :)
Or it could just be a mathematical artefact and be wholly meaningless.
Physics Phiend thanks for explaining your comment so clearly! What was Friedmann's equation supposed to say? (that might now be a bug)
Becky, this was one of your best videos I've watched from you🎉 especially last part about BHs. Thanks for sharing it
Thank you for sharing such excellent science communication. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for breaking down these thoughts, theories, and sky viewing charts. That chart using Orion as a reference to find the pleiades is the first time I've ever been able to understand where they are. Orion is so easy to find, and now I know where Taurus is and the "sisters". You are the best teacher. Tonight is the 27th, but So California has been in rain for almost a week, so I doubt I'll see anything looking at the sky except rain in my eye. 😉
Makes a change for California weather-wise though.
Can you see all seven of them?
@David Evans You are so right. I live in Los Angeles area, which makes sky viewing even more challenging. Orion is one of the few constellations I can actually see with all the light pollution. 🌟
@Todd Marshall with my naked eye, not too well, but on a clear night, I've taken pictures and noticed I captured them. (I was pretty excited when I realized it the first time 😁)
Your brilliant Dr Becky. Thank you for your CZcams uploads. With less The Sky at Night programs lately I've missed an astronomy fix and this is one of the best. 😁👍. Thank you
You're 😞
Heck yeah! Found a new channel to binge and listen to while working!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the black hole/ dark energy story. I was really curious about it, and fairly skeptical. You should probably publish your own paper on the topic.
Also, I'm halfway through your book and enjoying it very much! 🙂
I've always sorta had this question, if black holes could be dark energy, but I have no real physics education beyond highschool so, nice to hear an actual expert talk about it.
I thought the same thing just a few months ago. What if they are the source of dark energy.
Excellent video this month. Loved the bit on black holes/dark energy.
Fantastic video, you explain very complex things so simply. Love to hear your comments on the latest JWST images of likely highly evolved galaxies shortly after the big bang!
This explanation on what the paper said was better than Sabine's ramblings. She seemed to be targetting anger at physicists instead of trying to explain the average layperson. Your engagement was so much better, thanks
This one was so out there that i initially couldn't tell if it was pseudoscience.
You explained it beautifully!
I love this video! Thank you so much for making this Dr. Smethurst
My reaction to the paper was much the same as yours, intense methodological skepticism followed by intense pleasure at Section 4, on how to use other methods to investigate the idea. Those other methods all sound super cool, and would teach us a lot about the universe whether or not they back up this specific idea. Great section.
I LOVE DR BECKY!
Thank you for making space so interesting and exciting!
You rock!
Universe juice...classic Dr. Becky!!!
Wow. The explanation of that paper was top-notch, and I loved your rebuttal at the end. I really need to go to school and learn more. Like you, I am always thinking about black holes (and gravity and dark energy), but I know I need more than just what youtube videos can teach me if I am ever going to understand them as intimately as you do, which is quite inspirational.
I also liked your "Balrog" suggestion better than "Brian" for the name of dark energy. "A monster cloaked in shadow."
I absolutely love this new information for black holes coming out and furthering our understanding, even if it turns out to be wrong, it's still a fascinating concept!
I love how animated you get when the topic hits a nerve within your area of expertise. It shows just how passionate you are about it, and that passion is infectious.
I just love the joy you bring to astrophysics 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for sharing this ! Fascinating and educational!

I once worked with an engineer who considered himself to be so colossally talented that at one point he said: "This is something that someone like me would have come up with". It created a vacuum that swallowed all the energy around him.

Thank you for supplying such a clear explanation of these two papers suggesting that dark energy and black hole growth are cosmologically coupled. My head would have exploded just trying to comprehend all the math in that first paper.
I love your channel. I learn so much and it inspires me to learn more.
Really enjoy your sci fi movie reaction series and your bloopers!
very nice video, one of your best imo. particularly, i like the in depth review into the reasoning for and against the theory of dark energy that you discussed. dark energy never sat right with me on an intuitive level, but as you rightly point out we need to have solid empirical evidence to support all claims about the universe
Thank you, Dr. Becky, for your very informative, and humorous, videos!
I agree, Dr. Becky. I just saw two other videos regarding the coupling of dark energy and the growth of black holes. I didn’t believe it when I read the title of the videos. I’m glad somebody believes me.
You have stepped up. Good work, keep it going.
This was an exceptionally good episode, even by your remarkable standards. Thank you.
Hi. Dear dc, like always your episodes are keeping me very focus in. It s amazing what we learn and understand every day. I have seen yesterday that JWT found at the edge of this range very big and well form galaxies, that proved that the universe is so much older that we think. I am not un expert în any arya of expertise, for me is just a way of spending my free time a little. Probably, there is no darkmatter at all. And all the movement that we see in the universe is the result of gravity between all the things that are out there, and for sure any gravity force has an opus force that act in the opposite way to equal the equation. The sum of all this opposite gravity forces can be responsible for the expansion of the universe. Every force that is out there comes from un equation,and is the result of a spended energy. That energy cames front somewhere and is producing effect on on the other side of the equation. What I am trying to say is that all this attraction forces that represents gravity have Un equal rejection forces,exactly like magnets. Just an ideea.
Dr Becky, brilliant channel ‘nuff said. Thanks ☺️
“Ohhh it’s just not the the same as it was” has burrowed deep in my ear. Now it’s stuck in there. Thanks a lot.
Nice editing. I especially appreciated the equations and the fades of both the closer galaxies and the different data points in the elliptical galaxy graph. Subtle, nonintrusive, but added clarity.
I agree it helped make it SO clear. It's all down to my new editor for Night Sky News Jonny Hyman. His channel is linked in the video description 👍
@@DrBecky it's quite easy to understand that accelerating expansion pass the speed of light is an illusion... is there any single observation point the speed of light is broken then it is illusion... I don't need to hear about how space stretches out and that can make it so you can go faster than the speed of light bunch of BS... not only is it happening all throughout the Universe it's happening locally in our solar system ICU arrives and I have an experiment we can do to test this. On the Voyager they hit the ortcloud at 120 AU when it was calculated to be at 130 AU... when we resend the next batch of boys are Starcraft when the planets align we can test and see if this looks to be even further... if so then it is obvious dark matter is increasing in density and creating illusion of accelerating expansion past the speed of light... with this test we will be able to get an accurate gauge of this Dark Matter expansion rate so we can get a true grasp of how close objects are to us... might be closer then expected. If you think about it light is mass in motion kind of like field propagation. Red shifting is losing mass to maintain velocity. I propose that dark matter is made of hooks instead of strings therefore we cannot view a dark matter particle because we are made of strings... Just imagine a 3D string with a membrane Things folded over under immense amounts of pressure and attaching to its other side like a hook now the membrane is not visible making it appear invisible. Blackholes would have the power to compress regular string matter into hooks making it appear to disappear everything that enters... if you are truly smart AE past the speed of light should make no logical sense and you shouldn't accept the reason the system has proposed if you are truly smart. If at any observation point the speed of light is broken then is is illusion! It is the only logical solution! It's like Inception... lots of people thinking it makes sense because they don't want to seem like they don't understand it... it makes no logical sense! I know you see it! I know you are smart!!!
@@DrBecky we do know that neutrinos have mass... light mass. I have also theorized that dark matter May interact with regular matter... as the strings pass through the hooks they get ripped into a different kind of hook making regular matter forms turn into dark energy or matter... if this is the case we would have exponential growth of dark matter creating the illusion of accelerating expansion past the speed of light... it's alot more logical this way then breaking the speed of light... don't even waste your time trying to explain Inception to me... i understand it makes no logical sense... if it does to you then you are fake... peacd and love 💘
I look forward to watching this tonight with a big bowl of popcorn and muggacino; all set for some learning tonight. Thank you Dr Becky for the education. You always educate and entertain. 🌏
i’ve learned so much from this video, Dr. Becky! you are an inspiration to young learners like me!
Love your channel Dr. Becky
I like the warm light your using. Thanks for the vidjayo 👍
So basically, as usual, WE NEED MORE DATA (and analysis)
Do you think there will be a citizen science opportunity with the JWST? excellent as always. Pip pip
Yes the Galaxy Zoo team are already working on getting a project going with public data 👍
@@DrBecky Thank-you, have a great weekend. Pip pip
I love your passion, and your intelligence, love it :)
hahaha. I absolutely love your "bloopers" at the end of this video. You are the most awesome.
I always kinda figured that the reason the expansion of space was accelerating was that as galaxies move further away from each other, their gravity becomes less and less able to slow down the expansion. The idea that the expansion is just an intrinsic property of space kind of feels intuitive, but I'm also not really that familiar with all the work that's been done to understand what little we do know. I've done some reading up on it but I honestly struggle to parse the really technical stuff.
Every CZcamsr out there is totally paranoid that the noise generated by the neighbors is going to be heard by us on the viewing end. Especially when folks are live-streaming. To this day, I have never heard the noise from outside whatever building the CZcamsr is in. And I listen to a LOT of CZcams.
I'll never get tired of listening to you. 🥰
Great show. very interesting. Looking forward to the deluge of images and data released to the public from the 1 year anniversary of first light for JWST.
One of my physics teachers used to say that behind the event horizon, we can't tell anything. Black holes could be filled with yellow rubber ducks, for all we know.
Indeed.
I’m only being half facetious saying that it’s ironic that we seem to use known physics to evaluate hypotheses concerning objects one attribute of which we do know is that beyond it’s event horizon said known physics completely break down.
I’m often baffled by the circular logic.
@@greggary7217 I agree and have pointed out the same many times before. I don't think the universe is expanding at all, that red shift is not because of galaxies racing away from us, but from the universe containing something that absorbs the light energy causing the redshifts. What could it be? Well it could be anything, we make up all kinds of stuff that has no known physics explaination.
btw, I also think black holes are actual holes, there is nothing inside them, the collapsing mass converts into rotational energy, which is well known physics. Singularities are total nonsense.
As an actual Statistician, I can say this is either going to be the Perfect example of finding a completely unrelated variable that just so happens to perfectly correlate to what you are looking at - or it will be the Statistical find of a lifetime.
I remember an oceanographer who was tracking El Nino who saw a graph compiled by an agriculturist friend that matched his data. He then correctly predicted the corn crop of Zaire for 19 of the past 20 years. Some things are intertwined beyond chance.
Thank you for such a well-researched and well-presented video. Is is really both informative and entertaining.
13:45 spectral Lyman-a Break helps with the amount-of-redshift measurement. Wow, I learned something today. Thanks!
Fraser Cain has a great interview with the main author of the papers on the black holes might contain “Vacuum Energy” conjecture. If one is interested in the topic, the interview does possibly give one something to ponder about.

Breakthrough In Dark Energy? Here's What The Researchers H...
Dr. Becky does an outstanding job of explaining the concepts and tries to be very even handed despite her skepticism. I wish I had seen this video before the Cain one as you can get a much better critical understanding of the arguments.
It is interesting that another youtube video just dismisses this without any serious explanation and never even mentions the term Vacuum Energy which suggests that she doesn’t have much credibility on this subject.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks!
I bought your book "a brief history of black holes" and a few hours later I found this vid lol can't wait to read it!
Brilliant, thanks for the insight
the idea of having the SMBHs grow with the expansion of the universe and then that increasing their mass since its strictly proportional to the radius is quiet elegant.
DR BECKY YOU HAVE A GREAT JOB. YOU ARE VERY GOOD AT IT TOO. I LIKE THE "SKY NEWS' I AM A CONSTELLATION ENTHUSIAST. BEEN WATCHING THE STARS SINCE THIRTEEN. THANK YOU .
Now that was a mouthfull! I'll need to watch this about 100 times, and maybe...just maybe...some of it will sink in. Overwhelmed...but too hungry to understandwhat you are teaching us to give up, so....I'll watch it those 100 times.😄
