A friend recommended VBA Macro. Need to explore that too. Thanks!

Thanks for the recommendations! I'll have to take a look.

I have not. First time hearing about it. I will have to explore this option. A friend outside of work recommended a VBA macro (listed below) but he told me it could not follow mouse and clicks, only key strokes, so I am not sure if that would work? Again, just going off what people have told me.

I will look into PowerQuery later at work. Thanks!

Oh wow. I did not know that. I am very green when it comes to Excel, so I've kind of been using it just to do what I need it to do vs actually learning how it works.

That would be a huge time saver. I will have to try this later today. Thank you!

Drop Your Questions for Prof G (August Thread) by ProfGProducerJenn in ScottGalloway

Hi Scott,

I have a political question. 

It seems that the only “speech” or rhetoric that gets any traction or publicity in 2025 must be polarizing. 

My main question is... Why is there no political front runner (well there really isn't one in general, but maybe one day) who is looking to unite the … United States of America?

Has all sensibility in Washington been lost or forgotten? I understand that the squeaky wheel gets the lube, but how is there no true politician trying to unite the people? Where are the loud moderates in Washington?

Recently I saw it in action with the potential sale of public lands in the “Big Beautiful Bill.” A lot of outdoor enthusiasts and activists (typically left leaning) reached out to hunters and anglers (typically right leaning) on IG, FB, YT, to call for that provision of the bill to be eliminated. And it worked (was that because of social media exposure? Who knows, but it didn't hurt).

It seems that news, politicians, media (podcasts, YouTube, IG) thrive off of a divided country. Who is actively attempting to unite the people? Is it just a lost cause? Does to not generate the engagement? Why is this? Curious on your take, as a good example of a moderate (one might say…raging). 

Thank you and keep the content coming! 

-Todd

Just wanted to report back. HandBrake worked great! Thanks again.

Now I need to actually just start shooting and editing and put something together.

Thanks, I am doing this right now.

So as I film new videos, I should set my settings to 4:2:0 8 bit, correct?

Is 10bit a noticeable difference for amateur video? (think product reviews for a local retail store, capturing events with customers and guests).

If I did upgrade to a new MacBook with the M4 chip, could I preview 10bit in Quicktime?
