Sometimes you gotta lock that door and 393 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 6: like shut shit off, like he was saying earlier, and 394 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 6: he got it worrying about the kids. 395 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 4: You got to think. 396 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 6: I got three kids, But they gotta be times where 397 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 6: it's like when I came in, I got a battle 398 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 6: coming up. I got to block all this shit out 399 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 6: right now because I got to write this damn Remember 400 00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 6: this shit had this shit locked in it. 401 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: It's only one time. It ain't no studio where I 402 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 1: could punch it in. 403 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 6: Once I'm in front of these two three thousand people, 404 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 6: I gotta say this shit crispy one time, you know 405 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 6: what I'm saying.

I got this camera, that camera, 1563 01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:26,320 Speaker 4: and I tell them, well, first of all, the podcast 1564 01:05:26,440 --> 01:05:29,440 Speaker 4: is really in its purest form, just audio. This is 1565 01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:32,240 Speaker 4: really a reaching that vent of us putting stuff on 1566 01:05:32,280 --> 01:05:35,000 Speaker 4: YouTube and all that stuff, You're reaching a whole different 1567 01:05:35,040 --> 01:05:38,880 Speaker 4: base of people, right, And so I get somebody excited. 1568 01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:40,640 Speaker 4: Hey man, I got a YouTube video that did three 1569 01:05:40,720 --> 01:05:42,960 Speaker 4: hundred thousand views.

How long somebody is listening to your show, 1574 01:05:57,720 --> 01:06:00,360 Speaker 4: the subscribe as you've got, the frequency of downs, the 1575 01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:03,080 Speaker 4: quality of that subscriber. See YouTube. I'm gonna tell you 1576 01:06:03,120 --> 01:06:05,360 Speaker 4: something about YouTube. The reason a lot of people don't 1577 01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:07,720 Speaker 4: get chests from YouTube is because the people that typically 1578 01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:10,360 Speaker 4: watch YouTube don't spend a lot of money that's not 1579 01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:15,240 Speaker 4: attracted through advertise. They would rather reach a million people 1580 01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:18,120 Speaker 4: dog that's going out to purchase something than two million 1581 01:06:18,120 --> 01:06:21,680 Speaker 4: people who ain't gonna buy shit, right, you know, five 1582 01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:25,080 Speaker 4: hundred million people that ain't go buy shit, So that 1583 01:06:25,240 --> 01:06:28,040 Speaker 4: audience is worth a lot more money, even though it 1584 01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:30,360 Speaker 4: may be in less amounts. I think we maybe got 1585 01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:33,320 Speaker 4: like maybe three hundred thousand subscribers or something like that. 1586 01:06:34,200 --> 01:06:35,840 Speaker 4: I didn't never have to go out and pich the 1587 01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:38,840 Speaker 4: Jameson chronicles nobody. I never sent nobody enoughing. People were 1588 01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:43,680 Speaker 4: calling me. They was calling us from Spotify, this company, 1589 01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:46,960 Speaker 4: from Ben's time, and this company. So I tell people, 1590 01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:48,760 Speaker 4: if you do what you do when you're good at it, 1591 01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:51,000 Speaker 4: somebody go reach out to reach out to you.

But I 1597 01:07:04,280 --> 01:07:06,320 Speaker 4: didn't jump in neither one of those ventures with the 1598 01:07:06,360 --> 01:07:08,920 Speaker 4: plans to make money.
