Business Insider, hands down, has the absolute best programs available online and on cable! Always very well thought out, written, and produced. Just a fantastic resource. Thanks B I.
An interesting selection of videos from Business Insider about fascinating crafts that continue to exist even in the modern world. It is impressive how traditional crafts are preserved and passed down from generation to generation. It's amazing to see how they are adapting to modern times and staying relevant. Very fascinating and educational video!
AMERICANS AND OTHERS ARE WATCHING THIS VIDEO DYING FOR THE WEBSITE TO PURCHASE EVERYTHING FEATURED. WE CAN LITERALLY HELP SAVE THESE BUSINESSES FROM CLOSING, ESPECIALLY THE FAMILY OWNED BUSINESSES. PLEASE, INSIDER, PROVIDE AN ADDRESS WHERE WE CAN WRITE TO THESE ARTISANS TO PLACE ORDERS BY MAIL, OR PROVIDE US WITH WEBSITES FOR THOSE COMPANIES WHO ALREADY HAVE THEM??!!!!
They're not hard to find. As long as you catch the name of the business, you can Google it. I've watched many Business Insiders and found all that I was interested in. Many sell through Etsy and Amazon.
Good idea!!
I actually found his online. Excited!! It's called "THE AFRICAN FABRIC SHOP". It's very detailed. Musa's name is all on it, pics of what all he has and prices....so you'll know you're on the right site. At the very bottom of the pages you'll see a list of every way you can help Musa and his family.****he was the one that caught my attn as well. Especially with his children wanting to follow in his footsteps. I would love to help make that happen even if only 1 piece
Agreed that probably should have been on the film makers mind but you CAN do your own research for artisans local to you
There should probably be links and information provided for how to actually use these businesses (and thus help save them from closing).
Everyone is amazing! Thank you for featuring Filipino Artisans and bringing them to the spotlight too. 🇵🇭
That was so cool to see their tattoo shop in the US and how they're embracing their heritage and different traditional tattooing methods. But it made me really sad when that one girl said she wasn't pretty 😢
I'm going there soon.
:) among all these other talented artisans is the local talent of the Onondaga nation people. What a lovely surprise RIP Alfie
He died? 😢
2023 June 14th I believe. @@whoisdis8201

OMG! I was getting some major "Casa de Farinha" vibes from that factory making the ugly noodles! To clarify, "Casa de Farinha" is the name we give in Brazil to family-owned factories that process Cassava to make products like cassava flour and cassava starch. And that factory looked liked one! And now you tell those noodles are made from cassava? That's no coincidence!
I enjoy the video it is my second time. I also enjoy the dialogue in the background. I don't really know many languages. I stutter you little. But it seems that language speaks for itself. If you can, the first video has a ton of dialogue that seems very familiar to my nature. If you can inform them as a subtle message. Thank you so much! A. ninja was here! Thank you I believe that they will understand my message. The statement symbolizes that I know what you're talking about in the background. And I have no control over what you think. But if you would like to answer me to your question. I am always available.
Thanks For Sharing. Incredible Style & Amazing Arts & Craft. I Love it. > Toronto, Canada
I find it odd that they say the butter crunch recipe hasn't changed in over a hundred years, then the next sentence they talk about using "corn syrup" and switching to "tapioca syrup". So it clearly changed at least twice
Thank you so much for sharing all the business video love it and learn a lots of it
musa is so chill :D
Lacrosse is Canada’s national summer sport…hockey being our national winter sport. Growing up, most Canadians played hockey in the winter and mainly lacrosse and soccer (football) in the summer. I was fortunate to grow-up in smaller communities, whereby, my family and I knew the persons who made our Lacrosse wooden sticks. Even thought traditional sticks were slowly replaced by the aluminum/plastic alternatives…most of us learned to use both, and still do. Personally, I prefer the traditional wooden lacrosse stick, for a number of reasons (culture/tradition/preference), not the least of which, I want to celebrate and keep tradition/culture alive, as did my friends and relatives. In Canada, every province and territory has many indigenous people who are master craftsmen, carvers, musicians, story tellers, and lacrosse stick creators. Occasionally, one can find women crafting Lacrosse sticks, but, traditionally it’s ONLY men who are permitted to create lacrosse sticks, and play the sport, as designated by the indigenous communities themselves. However, we are beginning to see more women teams popping up throughout the country. There are many well known Lacrosse players and master craftsmen in Canada. Fortunately, the sport has experienced a significant increase in those interested in playing Lacrosse, and a revival in using “traditional” sticks has been happening for a while. With this renewed interest has come a genuine fascination with learning Indigenous culture and traditions, as well as, a deep respect for the beautiful Indigenous peoples who created the game! Unfortunately, the global community is unaware of our nation’s “superstars”. Hopefully, now that Lacrosse is designated as an Olympic sport, it will become popular! The next Olympic Games will see teams throughout North America play for gold. FINALLY…the sport is getting the recognition it deserves! However, as Canadians, we tend to shy away from the spotlight. The Olympics will provide an opportunity for Lacrosse players to gain recognition - while - simultaneously shedding light on the dedicated master craftsmen who provide such beautiful, “traditional” sticks! Whether the Olympics will permit usage of traditional sticks in official games has yet to be seen. Nonetheless, it’s a long awaited welcome to see Lacrosse finally hit the global stage. Perhaps, an international interest will grow…thereby…offering a space for others to learn about the game, along with our incredibly gifted master craftsmen, Indigenous peoples, their culture, traditions, etc. I believe it’s more important than ever, for our global community to witness the breaking down of boundaries, eliminating biases and racism, “respect” our neighbours, encourage “tolerance”…in the hope of opening our hearts and minds to foreign/different cultures, countries, policies, religions, etc. Sadly, people who should know better and are considered “leaders”, are merely encouraging our communities to engage and embrace hatred towards those with opposing worldviews! Certain parts of our world are embracing a “war monging” attitude and have demonstrated no backing down to furthering their stance! If we should have learned anything from past and current slaughters, wars, and increasing conflict…it is to NOT engage in such behaviour! Perhaps, we should mimic our North American Indigenous ancestors, and wisely engage in a Lacrosse game, whenever we have a conflict. Lacrosse may appear too simplistic for current conflict resolution…yet…it was effective for our North American ancestors! In the meantime - I wish everyone a wonderful week! Cheers!🇨🇦😊🇨🇦
Goy, pung gak man atung purol goy!
That is just amazing and beautiful 😍 art of the candy how they make it is amazing beautiful 😍
I would love to learn flower making
Pink lemonade cubes from sumac are. It's a plant that's citrusy and pink. Look it up.

PROTECT ALL TRADES! protect them from 3rd world slave labor prices and modern machines taking away the soul of the products!
2:59:47 That's Tony Bennet!
I'd like to make a suggestion if KZhead supports it or if you'd make duplicate videos (and if so, maybe I just don't know?) but if someone has a visual impairment that's not so severe that they need a screen reader they may need a language dub (yes I'm being English-biased but most YT videos in 2024 are English audio, right?) to access the foreign-language portions of the dialogue, and I frequently need to walk away from my screen but I still want to hear what the guests are saying. I don't see a SAP option in YT, so maybe Google / Alphabet / KZhead look into this?
3:27:30 from SEA, I find it weird that batik is made like this. Buy, hey, whatever works! 😁
We must develop rights laws that promote living in dignity by trading on skills one enjoys and that offer public good including another employed and disciplined community member.
Lacrosse and a small ball…why these Indians had good eye sight!!
Rest well, Alfie ❤
i want some of those foot noodles
57:40 "It takes 10 years to be a good blower" 👀
GREAT
Foot and hydraulic fluid noodles, yum🍜 1:39:49 foot pasta, 1:42:25 hydraulic fluid noodles
1:54:43 foot soap
There is a History Channel show where people clean and fix older machines. Mostly in Europe, but a few car body shops do this work too…if nothing else maybe a Handyman on Angis’ list.
Im a huge salt fan. I need this Philippino salt. Where can i buy some?
Also amazon
good
It makes me cry . So beautiful creations 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
I'm pretty sure 'kage' means shadow and 'hikaru' is light
Nice ❤
this is, so far, good stuff. I miss reporting with no opinion. Let me make my own.
Do you have addresses for these soaps that you can order directly from them?!
"and for some reason, people go to chocolate..." - Yes! Why I called it "grief food" when I was teaching. I shared GF with my colleagues so we could get through the day. Almost always dark chocolate.
That lady that tattoos is very pretty.
@1:19:35 Rona, you are beautiful. And you have a beautiful soul. I found it sad when you said, as a Filipino woman you didn't feel the prettiest. I think Filipino women are amongst the most beautiful in the world. And you're right about one thing, you are awesome.
It's incredibly beautiful that those traditional crafts haven't gotten extinct. Is there a way to order some of these things online? I absolutly get why the Philippine salt for example sells well to tourists, but not everyone has the money to travel.
What did i wake up to
smiling....and a happy new year
Where do you see production machinery headed in the next 5 years? Let's hear your predictions!"
That Japanese candy stuff made me miss Japan so much and made me hungry. one thing I miss most about Japan is the FOOD!!! QUE RICO!
3:39:49 bro I have one of their pickles!! I don’t remember who gave it to me when I was a kid but yeah I still have it that’s cool!!!! ❤❤
$5k paper weight? Yep, he is lucky to still be in business.
im curious.. do these glass blowing masters only seek out apprentices to teach? or do they hold and teach classes to anyone who is interested... thats probably split.. but I bet thats why younger people arent as interested.. i bet more would love to learn how to do the craft then go out on their own and figure it out rather then being under the thumb of some old school gatekeeper hahaha very amazing work and they would teach so much!
Do they have a studio audience in their house?
watching from Philippines :)
Christopher... Thank you so much for your heartfelt care for all of us Senior listeners!! With all due respect I'm going to ask that you please try to remember who you viewers are and to please slow down in your video presentations... Thank you... you're the Best!!!
Asin ale! Asin ale! Asin ale se! Words that i wont forget when I’m in wet market during my formative years.
48:20 ...42 years old, and I've absolutely HATED and been treated like shit at every single job I've ever had... I'm jealous, ngl
Rest in piece Alfie
It's secret, lots of near free labour and lots of stuff cooked off site
😮😮😮😮
Wagashi tastes like sugar and a but like flour. Far different from american candy
That person who put their order in the chocolate shop for 15 large turkeys the DAY before the holiday..that was just mean. That man had No holiday of his own then because he had to stay up all night for you. Also, dont say he could have said No. No one who runs a business is going to say No to a large order. The buyer knew that which is why it was so mean and rude to call it in the Day before the holiday it was due for. Tsk tsk.
You are beautiful!!
You're welcome 🦋
Rip alfie!!! 💪🫡🫡🫡

Dude that 911 call was dark af.. that lady is evil.
23:24 - When I had covid, (the 1st & worst time) in, February-March-April 2020, the only thing I could taste still, was, chocolate; I bought a bunch of, Dove solid milk chocolate bunnies, from, Walgreens, & just ate those. I couldn't taste or smell, was coughing up my lungs, & extremely fatigued, just laid in bed all day, eating chocolate bunnies.
I can’t see Zildjian ever going out of business
Years ago we used to go to Sam Ash. I remember seeing the Zildjian brand.
@@arfriedman4577 I have four award winning latin percussionist in my family, one of whom has worked very close with Zildjian in the past. For the 45 years of my existence I have always seen their products around the house
Can these unique craftsmen & women adopt children to be in the business? Probably still keep family in the loop; there might be another relative in the grandchildren that is into these arts… otherwise, hire and train and maybe even adopt orphans to help continue the “family” businesses before they die.
Soap Dude with burned 🔥 arms and bandages-think it's from lye burns and not wearing protection? Or heat burns?
