The Kurdish factor
In the north of Iraq, the Kurdish minority is largely unknown to the Western world. The Kurds embrace Western ideals, and their socially progressive and tolerant culture is in sharp contrast to the status quo of intolerance that continues to destabilize the Middle East. It's no surprise that forces of intolerance work to derail Kurdish ambitions, but, ironically, governments of the free world are equally guilty. Regardless, the persistent ambitions of this obscure minority in Iraq will impact every man, woman and child in the free world.

TEaming, the new teaching
The new school format called “Teaming” is making its rounds in the United States. This type of teaching is built to combat the current teaching system that is outdated for the 21st century and the rise of technology. This system helps to put more students in situations where they have to work as a team to accomplish a goal. Not only does this help students communication skills but also helps show them who and what they want to become once they graduate highschool.
7x Project
The Human Performance Project was created by Navy SEAL Ryan Parrot. After loosing his sniper partner to suicide, he set out on a mission to help prevent the 22 veterans that commit suicide on a daily basis. Along with helping first responders and anyone who deals with trauma on a daily basis in their work environment.
Ryan created the 7x Deployment, which consists of 62 individuals who have a special talent and who are the best in their field. Out of those 62, there was 10 athletes who completed, 7 marathons, 7 skydives, 7 swims, on 7 continents in 7 days (168 hours).
Not only did this trip spread awareness for mental health, the mission for 7x was to simulate what first responders and veterans go through on a daily basis while on the job. Stress, sleep deprivation and exhaustion were some of the many emotions we endured.
All of this will be studied by specialists at the Center for Brain Health in Dallas, to put together a how to guide for people to follow when they are dealing with thoughts of suicide or depression from PTS (Post Traumatic Stress) or any other issues that come to light from a high stress and traumatic work life.
The mission is to solve mental health…
Keep up with the craziness

The Forgotten COmmunity |Mexico
On July 8th, we traveled to Guadalajara, Mexico, to connect with the core Mexican scooter community—a group that has long been overlooked in the wider freestyle scooter world.
What initially began as a passion project for our company Undialed, intending to document the entire event for our YouTube channel, quickly transformed into a documentary exploring themes of mindset, corruption, and brainwashing that this community and most of Mexico have succumb to.
Over the course of 10 days, we immersed ourselves in capturing TV Gram V3, an event organized by Chema Cardenas, a pro scooter rider for Proto Scooters, for the past three consecutive years. While resembling events like Coalition, it stands out with a unique feature—filming is exclusively done through participants' phones.
Join us as we capture the unfiltered enthusiasm of the riders, engaging in personal conversations to gain insights into their daily lives.
BE AWARE that some moments and stories may evoke strong emotions and could be challenging for certain viewers. We recommend anyone over the age of 18 to view.
