The 45 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 1: book is called Confessions of an Advertising Man. And there's 46 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: a good black and white image of a of a good, 47 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: strong British man in a suit holding his glasses. He's 48 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: a Scotsman actually right, well, but well, actually Scotland is 49 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: in Britain. Well, it's interesting and I think we'll get 50 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: Britain is made up of Scotland, England and Wales. Right 51 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: informally Ireland before the trouble.

I'm just a 167 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: little bit concerned about the word different and how that's 168 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: going to read to the higher ups, and I don't 169 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,319 Speaker 1: want to show them something that I think might make 170 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: them a little bit nervous, and so I just want 171 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: to have another conversation about that word. And then Lauren's 172 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 1: being like, that's a really good call it and thank 173 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: you for saying that. And then another three weeks go 174 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: by and then you finally do present stay Different, and 175 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: then they're just like, so ultimately we decided to not 176 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: do a new rally and cry, and all that would 177 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 1: ever be is like a poster in like the break 178 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 1: room that some poor janitor has to like look like 179 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 1: stay different. So so I just want to back up 180 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 1: a little quickly to set the context. So so David 181 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: Ogilvie started an advertising verb that is now and it's 182 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 1: Ogilvie and Mather and it's still one of the big 183 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: advertising agencies. Before this, I didn't know who Ogilvie was, right, 184 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: So you said, if you talked to a mad man 185 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: like that said? You said, you said, why didn't they 186 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: know you talk about? You say Ogilvy, Oh, you talk 187 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 1: about Ogilvy Mather. You know what I mean. People know 188 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,079 Speaker 1: what that means. But a lot of the work these 189 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 1: days is being done in branding and identity agencies. Like 190 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: I feel like you're doing a Britain and then then 191 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: it's good, you know, then they're going to the added 192 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: in Sylm and it's back and forth and it's ninety lord. 193 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: But this sort of the world in which she describes, 194 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: where it's like you're working for hours to come with 195 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: this insane pitch to like give to Nike, it's like 196 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: that kind of only still happens for like Super Bowl 197 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: ads probably, and it's crazy. Okay, what do you think 198 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 1: about this? So he has this whole thing about how 199 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: he won't do if he has two clients and he 200 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 1: won't like put them in an ad together because someone 201 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 1: always gets the short end of the stick. Yeah, I know. 202 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,719 Speaker 1: I mean, we're always trying to do that, like on 203 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 1: an agency where it's just being like, oh, we could 204 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: like do some center jam, but it is awkward and 205 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: I wouldn't do that. I think it is because then 206 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: when I think about it, when it's like Chevy cars, 207 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: like when a Coca Cola Pepsi T shirt with the Chevy's, 208 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 1: then Coke is like the little silly free T shirt 209 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: you get, right, Chevy's the big boy, right, And it's like, 210 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess nowadays everything is a collab and 211 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 1: it's so just like whatever, like well, I mean I 212 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 1: think they're talking more sweepstakes vibes and not like something 213 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 1: X this, right. They're not talking about x lata, right, 214 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: They're talking about more just like one advertisement where it's like, well, 215 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: actually this brings us to another point. So at one 216 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 1: point he says he's like that a real good agency 217 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: needs to like needs one man at the top who's 218 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 1: like this savant and like everyone ever looks to him 219 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: and he's the lord. And I do have to say 220 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: I kind of think that's true because so I worked 221 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: for in my experience, so I spent a lot of 222 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: time at Wolf Owens, which is like a British agency 223 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: that has a big office in New York and it's 224 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: very it looks like the Apple store. Inside it's like 225 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: this massive white office and like London, New York. I'd 226 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: New York and it's like very frosted conference rooms. But 227 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: there was no real like Hancho like that everyone worshiped 228 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: at the top. The work isn't really like life changing, 229 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 1: and I don't think really like changing industry in a 230 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 1: big way. And like they like rebranded all right before 231 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: like ran into the ground and it's like cool, like 232 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: congrass sad. I'm like That's another thing he says in 233 00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: this book. At one point, he's like, don't take on 234 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 1: like a dying clan. It's just like, well, do you 235 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: really know what like the stench of death around you? Truly? 236 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: Because I think, you know, I actually was when I 237 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: opened this book. I was kind of awaiting, like or 238 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: there's going to be some super outdated points, and I 239 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: think there are kind of more in terms of language 240 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 1: when he talks about like saving Puerto Rico is a country, 241 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: but like his little isms are very true. He's like 242 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 1: there comes a point, you know, if a product they 243 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: haven't had good sales for years. It's not the advertising problem, honey, 244 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:31,079 Speaker 1: it's it's the problems and he can't turn around. As 245 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: Laurie would say, there's na a market. Yeah, I'm na 246 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: seeing the market. So for me, I'm out. I am out. 247 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 1: But to that point about a savant hauncho like jin 248 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 1: Lane is run by this guy Emmett, who like is 249 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 1: this like cool skater downtown guy, and he definitely has 250 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 1: like an esthetic that is what like drives the whole company, 251 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 1: and it's like the reason that people come to them 252 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: and they like desperately beg him to like create their brands. 253 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: Like they don't solicit any new business, but just something 254 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: he talks about a lot in this book, Jim. He says, 255 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,959 Speaker 1: I get a new client ever two years, right, and 256 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: they come knocking because they're like with you doo, and 257 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: like Jane Lane is sort of credited with like doing 258 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: the whole like very ubiquitous startup design that everyone's familiar 259 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 1: with like him's and like that sort of flat because 260 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: I can't natural a lot of branding agency and they're like, oh, 261 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: like we're all in this as a team and like 262 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: everything welh blah.

Ogle V says, a good ad 407 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:56,920 Speaker 1: is something that makes you want to buy the product. 408 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: And I think people of my advertising cohort are much 409 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 1: more guilty of what he says is like they want 410 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: to make entertaining ads. They want to make ads that 411 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 1: they're like proud of or whatever, which is funny, he says, 412 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: he and one of he goes good copywriters have always 413 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: resisted the temptation to entertain. See I can't. I have 414 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: to entertain myself otherwise I can't disagree here where he's 415 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: very just like he's hardly getting into television ads at 416 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: this point, Like all advertising are these like massive articles 417 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: in like Life magazine and player.

I do 419 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 1: want to have my favorite ads, but we should just 420 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 1: explain for one second the way that adds is to look, 421 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: it's completely insane. There was like nine hundred words. It 422 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 1: was like only print and everyone was reading magazines left 423 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: in rank and it was just like he said he 424 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 1: want reads. He was like, oh, the average woman's always 425 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: like the average I read ten magazines week, and the 426 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: average woman reads six magazines a day or something like 427 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: she's just going cover to cover in her sunken living 428 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,879 Speaker 1: room and God bless her.

One of his dudes and don't 503 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,400 Speaker 1: is always use photography and not illustration and advertising. He said, 504 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 1: always use photography or well, he said, photography is better. Yeah, 505 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,120 Speaker 1: it's more eye catching people like, oh right, well, that's 506 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 1: because I feel like he was like even those the sixties, 507 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: like photos were still kind of like new, photos were new, 508 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,959 Speaker 1: and like illustration was weird, and they I think that 509 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: graphic design wasn't like so these sort of insane industry 510 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 1: that it is now. So there was the Campbells suit drawing, 511 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: and then it was also just so like the classic 512 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 1: like and they were there bringing the Turkey drawing right, 513 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: and there was like one like Norman Rockwell asque esque 514 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: illustrator that you could hire and like he is probably 515 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: busy and like maybe you couldn't get him to like 516 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 1: do your sou bad. But I do think that there 517 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: is a tendency to overuse illustration in design now and 518 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 1: in advertising because and I think it's partially it's because 519 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 1: photography is like people are so worried that photography will 520 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: read as to you know, to revealing of a certain class, region, size, 521 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 1: and so they're like, so they're like, let's just do 522 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: a little cartoons that relate to everyone, And then when 523 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: you do have photography, it's always this like disembodied like 524 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 1: pand of just like indeterminate age in ethnicity that's like 525 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: coming in through the side, like holding a lime and 526 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 1: it's just like, okay, let's that's very that um that 527 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 1: like breastbinder that I bought recently from just like a 528 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: company that was like what's it called Good Works or 529 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 1: something like that, And it's like that, I feel like 530 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: it makes so much sense because they're like, well, like, 531 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: are we showing a transmitter? Are we going to show 532 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: like lesbian? Are you going too?

I'm really 550 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,439 Speaker 1: not anti billboard because just to mention, because from how 551 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,239 Speaker 1: many ads did we see for the new Tao opening up? 552 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 1: Mohegan when we were driving, Yeah, I know what I mean, 553 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 1: we were like, we have to go to time. Do 554 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: you think that as a driver it's a dangerous and 555 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:16,440 Speaker 1: being as dangerous, it's like it is a nicer if 556 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: you're But I also feel like he thinks it's Nico 557 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: because he's from England and so he's been so like 558 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: the American Open Road is beautiful, Well, yeah it's marred. 559 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: He's a gardener. And he was like and he was like, 560 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 1: I'm a man partial to the downscapes. I mean, he 561 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 1: honestly did. Sometimes he was being very my dad because 562 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: he was being like a Loveland game. But he was 563 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 1: also are all kind of gay, right, which is kind 564 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: of what I try to say to you and why 565 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 1: I actually don't think my dad is gay. Your dad 566 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 1: is not British, but but he is of European descent. 567 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: He's wait, he's Italian, which you know, here's the thing 568 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: Italian Americans are. Therefore, yes, Italian Americans are very much o, 569 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: very you know, like, no, it's being vido. But I 570 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: feel like actual Italian man are like much gayer. Well again, 571 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: I think they just have taste and they think they 572 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: care about it, and they're like because America doesn't. And 573 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: I think that's part of the problem. I want to 574 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: talk about this part where I was really shocked where 575 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 1: he talks about like lesbians and movies, and I was like, 576 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,719 Speaker 1: who are you referencing? This is very gendered, so just 577 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: like CW Trick or Partning like, but I do think 578 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 1: this is like accurate. Okay. When I worked with doctor Gallup, 579 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 1: I was able to demonstrate that moviegoers are more interested 580 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 1: in actors of their own sex than an actress of 581 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: the opposite sex. True, there are a few exceptions to 582 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: this rule. The female sex kittens find great favor with 583 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: male moviegoers, and the lesbian stars do not appeal to men. 584 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 1: And I was like, it's in nineteen sixty two. Wait 585 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: what what lesbian? I know? I was like, we're talking 586 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 1: about Molin and d Trick. Wow. I love that he 587 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: says that's a matter of fact. He's just like, well, obviously, 588 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: if it's a movie about lesbians, like men don't want 589 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 1: to go. Yeah, and again, I think that's another one 590 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: of these points where we're just like, that's kind of 591 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 1: still Truday and I'm It's like we were talking about 592 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: just like most guys want to watch like an Avenger's Stadium, 593 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 1: your basic straight guy movie, Jason Stay, Yeah, they don't 594 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: want to watch like they want to watch Big Big 595 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 1: Disobedience or whatever. Right, well, right, they definitely don't want 596 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: to watch Disobedience. But then they're also not being like 597 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 1: I need to watch Book Smart with like Beanie Beetles Tin. Yeah. 598 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe a lot of like cocked boyfriends 599 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,719 Speaker 1: are like watching Book Smart. Oh, it's true. People are 600 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 1: always being like I liked it, but yeah it was 601 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 1: so bad and it was about lesbians, like I was 602 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 1: wanting to like get more, but it was really like 603 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: too much of a fake movie. Day said they liked 604 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: it in this way that was that I could tell 605 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 1: that they didn't really like it. I like it, Yeah, 606 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 1: it was very that vibe.

It's just fun, 1024 00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:55,480 Speaker 1: and I think it's also there's a lot that's useful 1025 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:58,600 Speaker 1: in here, no matter what industry you're in. No, I 1026 00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:01,319 Speaker 1: think it's very used full and it is that like 1027 00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:04,200 Speaker 1: there's a lot of lists going on. Obviously, you know, 1028 00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:07,319 Speaker 1: I feel like go towards where I wish there was 1029 00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:09,839 Speaker 1: a little more in his childhood and like being abused 1030 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,479 Speaker 1: by just like the nuns, you know, in my rating 1031 00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 1: system because it's like I feel like I gave you know, 1032 00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,120 Speaker 1: tigue in a four out of five.

I feel like as a business book, 1037 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:32,480 Speaker 1: I give a four out of five.

I 1040 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:41,000 Speaker 1: think it's so important because so much we've lost so 1041 00:53:41,080 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 1: much of our history and we live in such a 1042 00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:46,120 Speaker 1: now culture that's like nostalgic for the super recent past, 1043 00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:48,840 Speaker 1: and we forget like how much we have in common 1044 00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:53,000 Speaker 1: with our ancestors or advertising ancestors exactly. Well, it's kind 1045 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,400 Speaker 1: of like how Kevin Gannett and the last book was saying, 1046 00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:59,360 Speaker 1: like how his basketball playing it's like silt, it's a 1047 00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 1: great and it was like, you know, he's taking tips 1048 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:05,239 Speaker 1: from like you know, from the people who came before him, 1049 00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 1: and even as consumers, what do I feel like work again? 1050 00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:12,759 Speaker 1: Things our mother's consumed, you know, our mother's bought of. 1051 00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:16,319 Speaker 1: He's not talking. He's trying to the reader like you're 1052 00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:19,920 Speaker 1: his coworker. Yes, which is cool. He's not just being 1053 00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 1: I'm a rich It's not like snake oil, like I'm 1054 00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:25,520 Speaker 1: a rich businessman and like this is like how you 1055 00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:27,359 Speaker 1: can do it.

It's actually yeah, 1057 00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 1: I think it really respects the reader in a in 1058 00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:35,239 Speaker 1: a very high minded book, because he respects who he's 1059 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:37,880 Speaker 1: advertising too. He's gonna respect and he respects the products, 1060 00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:40,640 Speaker 1: and he respects the rum of Puerto Rico, the country 1061 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:44,600 Speaker 1: that he did save.
