Hello beloved!

Here is your weekly dose of Whapping, a list of what I’m enjoying and exploring. Please feel free to forward this along to friends.

What I’m Watching:

In this video, YouTuber Biaheza takes one of his subscribers and helps him create a drop shipping business to prove that it’s not luck.

This funny feel-good video takes you through the journey of this subscriber from nothing to making over $2700 a day.

This video is the epitome of what YouTube content can and should be. A great story told in a very entertaining way about a topic that is relatively niche. This video came at a perfect time for me, giving me tons of inspiration for my own business and YouTube goals. If you are a person interested in business give this video a watch.

Podcast I’m Listening To:

This whole episode is gold. The episode is full of great stories that make the tools they offer really stick in your brain. Both Dr. Maya Shankar and Andrew Huberman have an impressive ability to make technical science easy to digest for the average person.

I especially liked the topic about a concept called cognitive closure (1:13:20), which is the need to arrive at clear definitive answers to things. They go on to explain how that mindset can stifle long-term success in behavior change.

It’s all fascinating and I highly suggest listening to this episode in its entirety and the rest of the Huberman Lab podcast library.

Music I’m Listening to:

Lately, I’ve felt that music has been lacking. There just isn’t much that is capturing my attention, until this video.

AMP is a group of streamers and content creators, including Kai Cenat who became the most subscribed Twitch streamer ever in February of this year. AMP comes together for their 2023 cypher even teaming up with Lil Yachty to put together a performance that had me pleasantly surprised. Personally, I thought Fanum had the best verse, he completely ate that shit like the food enthusiast he is but let me know who you thought was best. While I admit that this cypher is more entertainment than pure music, I still thought it was impressive enough to share with you.

What I’m Reading:

$100M Offers is one of the most life-changing business books I’ve ever read. It takes the complicated world of business and makes it simple to understand. This book explains how every successful business is built on the foundation of an “Offer So Good People Feel Stupid Saying No.” If you are anything like me and dream of building a successful business this is where I would start.

If you aren’t convinced take a look at his YouTube Channel and watch any of his videos. Each one is jam-packed with so much valuable information that it feels unbelievable that all of it is free.

This concludes the first-ever Whapping newsletter. Please give me feedback on Instagram. Which bullet above is your favorite? What do you want more or less of? Other suggestions? Please let me know. Just send me a DM on Instagram @Jqcob or reply to this email and put #WHAPPING at the beginning so I can find it.

Have a wonderful weekend, all.

Much love to you and yours,
