Speaker 2: to be like crazy pressure, Like it's a be a breeze.

51
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,919
Speaker 2: As soon as I got there, I started seeing all

52
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 2: the people that were there, all like the heads of Nike, Adidas,

53
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:16,360

Speaker 2: they collade with, the celebrities and all that were there.

56
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 2: And they were like, oh yeah, this is basically someone

57
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 2: described as like the Grammys of the footwear And I

58
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 2: came up there shaking like a stripper.

59
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 4: Did you have anything prepared?

60
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, like we we had something prepared. And when I

61
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 2: told you, I was so nervous. I think I like

62
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 2: said like the first four words and then had like

63
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 2: a dramatic ass pause for like eight seconds. I put

64
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 2: my head down and everything. I'm like, damn, my mouth,

65
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 2: my messages up. I opened with like a terrible joke

66
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 2: about the Knicks. Like four people laughed and they were

67
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 2: all Nick fans, and it was just probably one of

68
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 2: the worst speeches I ever gave.

69
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 5: So how was it from your perspective that as bad

70
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 5: as he's.

71
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was. Yeah, he was so fucking nervous. Had

72
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: to be like, yo, bro, calm down. He was sweating.

73
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 3: I was like, that's that's our major How do you

74
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 3: how do you mess that up?

75
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 2: Because I just wasn't. I wasn't prepared for like all

76
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 2: of these Like no, yes, no, I was prepared for that,

77
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 2: but I just like, I was like, I like, it's

78
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:25,919
Speaker 2: gonna be like, it's gonna be chill. It was like,

79
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 2: this is gonna be like a you know, intimate thing

80
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 2: where it's like he gets it the you know award,

81
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 2: and then I forgot but.

82
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 1: It ended being cool though it was. It was it

83
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 1: was Josh like people give him the benefit of the.

84
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 2: Doubt, exactly. It was just like idiot basketball players just

85
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:42,919
Speaker 2: up here talking.

86
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 4: Music to ushure you off.

87
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly. So it was.

88
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 1: It was great. Honestly, it was great. Not a great speech,

89
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: but it was a great.

90
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 2: I think I apologized like four times, and I think

91
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 2: I did that that then the next day the next

92
00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 2: time I saw him, So.

93
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 5: We wouldn't have a podcast opener if it weren't for that.

94
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 5: It is like a great story.

95
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, so terrifying moment, but good story.

96
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 1: I think I think that moment kind of helped him

97
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: with this podcast, to be honest, for sure. He learned

98
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,359
Speaker 1: from that for sure. Now he's on a big stage,

99
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: he's able to you know what I mean.

100
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 5: I'll share one story that I don't know how you'll

101
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 5: feel about me sharing this. It's not that bad. But

102
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 5: so Josh isn't amazing, like off the cuff. So him

103
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 5: and Shannon, we're interviewing baby nurses to take care of

104
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 5: their of their sons, right, and Shannon like Shannon was like,

105
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 5: Josh joined the FaceTime, you know, ask her some questions.

106
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:37,919
Speaker 4: And Josh didn't have any questions prepared.

107
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 5: And so he's interviewing this baby nurse and his first

108
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 5: question was are you are you good with kids?

109
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 2: I'll just I didn't know she already interviewed this woman beforehand, right,

110
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: So this was like the second interview. So I'm thinking, like,

111
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 2: this is the first interview. She's gonna, you know, tell

112
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 2: us about herself. Shanna has some questions or whatever. So

113
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 2: Shannon's like, hey, yeah, so this is my husband. He

114
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 2: has some questions Josh, here go And I'm just like, oh,

115
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 2: she did what Ronnie did? She didn't give me the

116
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 2: context behind it, so I was a little you know,

117
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 2: I was. I was caught off guard. And then it

118
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 2: was shaky. It was shaky, so shaky again. Yeah, but

119
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 2: but now you know, great podcast opener into.

120
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,840
Speaker 3: I would say today was a bottom five. Bottom five

121
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 3: bottom five had to be me too, right, yeah, I

122
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 3: mean it falls you.

123
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 2: I was talking and you cut me off. I have

124
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 2: a lisp. What do you want me to do?

125
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 3: All right?

126
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 2: Well, now that we're here in a nice, beautiful office,

127
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 2: this is this is one of the best settings we've

128
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 2: had her probably the best setting we've had. The windows

129
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 2: up with the glare, but definitely the best setting we have.

130
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,719
Speaker 2: So where where did this start?

131
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: First of all, thank you so much for having me

132
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 1: on the show. I really appreciate that. I didn't know

133
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: when the end of the intro would happen, so.

134
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 3: That was a good I think, honestly, probably like six

135
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 3: seven minutes of the intro, but no one's counting over here.

136
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 1: Luckily we could chop it up, you know what I mean,

137
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: and have some cuts. But thank you so much for

138
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: having me. I really appreciate that. And yeah, twenty eleven,

139
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 1: as it says on the screen, right, there. During my intro,

140
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: I saw the little bit the little bio. Should I

141
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: just read it? I'm kidding it. We've been here now

142
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 1: in this office for three years, but we started. Kiff

143
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: opened its first doors in twenty eleven. It was a small,

144
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: little multi brand footwear shop, eight hundred square foot footwear shop,

145
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: one in Brooklyn, not far from Barclay's and one in

146
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 1: a soho, Ronnie, when did you guys go from curating

147
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 1: other brands to actually making the decision we're gonna actually

148
00:07:58,360 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: were gonna build our own band.

149
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 4: We're gonna launch Kith branded product.

150
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 3: Yeah.

151
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 1: So, like I said, it was mostly like footwear, multi

152
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: brand footwear and also collaborative projects with those footwear brands,

153
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: because that's what I was doing previously at david Z,

154
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 1: which was a chain of shoe stores. I worked there

155
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: for fifteen years since ninety five, and we were collaborating

156
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 1: on footwear and selling some of the top tier products.

157
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 3: And then.

158
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: About two years after that or a year and a

159
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: half after that, we built an incredible community at the

160
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: shop and people were coming in and they really wanted

161
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 1: to wear the name of the store and represent the

162
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: name of the store. Because of the community that we built,

163
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: so I was convinced to start thinking about that. And

164
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: then the first item I made was a pair of

165
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: pants and that was like the first Twill Jaggra pant

166
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: in the marketplace. It's called the Mercer pant. And it

167
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 1: came at a really interesting time in footwear, so like

168
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 1: people were loving that they can like showcase what they

169
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 1: were wearing on their feet because an elasticated cuff right

170
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: above it. It was like a different look for a

171
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 1: pant and that took off. And since then we started

172
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 1: to create other products and it was all made in

173
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: New York City in the Garment District in like twenty

174
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 1: twelve heading into twenty thirteen, before we really started to

175
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: make an array of products.

176
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,079
Speaker 3: The store that was in Soho, that's the original store, right,

177
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 3: but you expanded obviously, Yeah, where it was.

178
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: It was in the back of Atrium. So like Atrium

179
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 1: was this like denim mecca shop that used to sell

180
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: and launch many products, like diesel. It was the first

181
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,199
Speaker 1: like diesel retailer in New York, the first Evsu retailer

182
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,559
Speaker 1: in New York. It sold Iceberg and you know they

183
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 1: launched Donna Karen like DCN. Why back in the day,

184
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,679
Speaker 1: and Tommy and a lot of great brands. In the

185
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: back of the shop, they had this like space that

186
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,559
Speaker 1: opened up into the courtyard. So I took that small

187
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 1: space and we opened up there.

188
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:11,439

227
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 3: The last year.

228
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:07,359
Speaker 2: I just want some different.

229
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,199

00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,960

Speaker 5: Did you see when they wanted to put Saquon in

247
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 5: so he could break his rushing record and he was

Speaker 2: Neighbors has had a good good year so far. Caleb Williams,

260
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 2: he's been all right. The last one on there, Jaydon Daniels,

261
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 2: he's been actually really good, but really surprised some folks.

262
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 2: Dual threat, you know, carried the team. So being number

263
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 2: one in the NFC East. Mm hmmm, number one in

264
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 2: the NFC East. I didn't hear you say that, number one,

265
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 2: and then the Eagles are in there right. Oh yeah,

266
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:44,959
Speaker 2: you got a second though.

267
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 5: Whatever the moment, it's never ordinary at BET three sixty five. Yeah,

268
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 5: what were the biggest lessons you took from working retail

269
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 5: to then building your own retail business? Like what how

270
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 5: did that experience kind of shape what you turned kiss into.

271
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 1: Like my previous job even like when like what you're

272
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,959
Speaker 1: lid to at David Z's. Yeah, I took a lot

273
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 1: with me. I think it was like kind of like

274
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: my best my best like schooling, uh in my lifetime.

275
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 1: I was able to because I started in the stock

276
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: room and then became a salesperson on the floor, and

277
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: then an assistant manager and a manager, and then assistant

278
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 1: buyer general buyer, and then general buyer slash general manager.

279
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 1: So I kind of like came up in the rankings there.

280
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: But more importantly, I got to like really spend time

281
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: on the floor and buy the product that people were

282
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 1: then shopping for, but understanding why certain people gravitated towards

283
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 1: certain products before social media, before the whole like internet era.

284
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 1: So that's like back in the day before people were

285
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 1: hunting for products they already knew they wanted. They were

286
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 1: coming in and like they were actually asking questions about

287
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 1: products that haven't seen before. So you'd have to have

288
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 1: the knowledge and like them through five or six different

289
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 1: shoes that they were they wanted to try on before

290
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 1: they decided they were going to buy a pair or two,

291
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: you know, So like very different from today's you know,

292
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 1: shopping experience. I think that that taught me a lot

293
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: of understanding why certain people like certain products. So I

294
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: got to like help and David z it was it

295
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: was an incredible mixture of tourism mixed with the local consumer.

296
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: So like I was helping you know, back then they

297
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: weren't even they weren't even superstars yet, but a lot

298
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: of like hip hop artists before they came up, you know,

299
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 1: So I was helping like nas As, you know, Busta

300
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: mace j like before they became superstars, and and Wu

301
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 1: like I used to sell Wu Tang all their wallabies.

302
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: I used to sell Lauren Hill her Gortex boots and like,

303
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: this is when they were like before they became icons.

304
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 1: So I got to see like what they liked and

305
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: why they liked it, and I think it really shame

306
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 1: my taste in what I like because I was going

307
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: back to Queens. I grew up in Queens and the

308
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 1: city was always a year ahead of the trends in

309
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: the Burroughs because social media wasn't around, so it really

310
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: had to like trickle into the Burroughs, you know. So

311
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 1: I was putting up, I was putting my friends on

312
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 1: to a lot of trends and things that were happening

313
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 1: in the city, and it made me fall in love

314
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: with product on a whole different level. So I think

315
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: that that's where my passion came from.

316
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 2: This is fitting right, so because this will come out

317
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 2: November seventh, November eighth, fifth night, so correct, we're gonna

318
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 2: we're gonna, you know, dive more into that. But last

319
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 2: year we had the Kifth jerseys right the New York,

320
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 2: New York, which is probably one of our favorite ones

321
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 2: and we did a Jalen and myself did a shoot

322
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 2: for this jersey. Really oh man, yeah we know that

323
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 2: actual score of it. Well, it was a lot to

324
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,880
Speaker 2: a little. We played one on one. It was joking too,

325
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 2: so you know it wasn't you know, too serious, but

326
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 2: it turned out really bad for me.

327
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 4: What is that your game?

328
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 2: Yeah? You know, I'm I'm a team player. You know,

329
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 2: I fit into a good system. Jalen's the big you know,

330
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 2: one on one ISO guy. So Ronnie from your perspective.

331
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:28,160
Speaker 4: Oh lord.

332
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 2: Man, it's it's on there, Jayden. I knew Jaden was

333
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 2: going to talk about it, so I just.

334
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:36,199
Speaker 1: Got get you got to get ahead of it.

335
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 4: To get ahead of yeah.

336
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:40,679
Speaker 1: You got an eight mile limb, you know what I

337
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 1: mean exactly?

338
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 2: So you you, you know, directing this shoote what was

339
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 2: what was going through your mind?

340
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: So let me give the context for people who you know,

341
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 1: saw that and probably didn't know what went down. We

342
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: needed it to be a competitive video between you know,

343
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: Jalen and Josh playing one on one and uh, showcase

344
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: the fact that they're friends and they talk shit to

345
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: each other and kind of like what you'd what what

346
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 1: you'd expect from seeing two friends play ball, right, So

347
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 1: we show up and I'm like, all right, guys, like,

348
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 1: I know you guys played together in the past, but

349
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:22,880
Speaker 1: you know I'm gonna need you guys to like talk

350
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 1: ship to each other and make it competitive. And Jalen

351
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: looks at me, who goes obviously like we fuck. This

352
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,479
Speaker 1: is what we fucking do, like because I'm like, you

353
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:33,199
Speaker 1: guys got to talk shit to each other, and he's like,

354
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: of course I'm gonna talk shit, Like what do you mean?

355
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 1: So we started recording and from they get by the way,

356
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 1: we should definitely like insert some good I.

357
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:50,400
Speaker 2: Don't know if we gotta get we gotta get island

358
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 2: this first.

359
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 3: We will, we will.

360
00:18:53,880 --> 00:19:00,479
Speaker 1: So so Jalen just starts like and and I was like, yo,

361
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: it gotta be like kind of even, right, So, like

362
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,439
Speaker 1: Jalen starts playing one on one for real, so you know,

363
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:11,439
Speaker 1: winners out. So he keeps like making shots and I

364
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 1: don't think Josh got possession for like ten minutes in

365
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 1: and like Austin and I are looking at each other

366
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 1: and Austin helps me direct and produce these videos. We're

367
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 1: both looking at each other like what do we do?

368
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: Because it got heated between them two, right, and he's

369
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 1: looking at me. He's like, what do we what do

370
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,919
Speaker 1: we do? Like we need Josh, We need Josh to

371
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 1: look like he's decent. It got dark, and I'm like

372
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 1: all right, so I had to like stop them in

373
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 1: the middle. I had to pull them both together. I

374
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: was like, yo, like, Jalen, you think you can let

375
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,399
Speaker 1: Josh like score a couple of baskets because you know,

376
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:57,160
Speaker 1: not for nothing. But like I was watching Jalen play,

377
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: so he's nice, but like I got to see it

378
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 1: on a different level because he got like uber competitive

379
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 1: in this one on one situation and just started making

380
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 1: everything like I mean everything, and and it sounds like

381
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 1: I'm not even exaggerating it was. It was. I was like, yo,

382
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 1: this is some crazy ship. And even Jalen, I feel

383
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: like you were on Like I was.

384
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 3: Laughing the entire time. I was just like, this is

385
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 3: comedy at this point, yeah.

386
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: Because you were everything was going in.

387
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 3: I was like, I was assuming some shots. I was like,

388
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 3: all right, I'm just gonna shoot it. The ball was

389
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:31,159
Speaker 3: just going in.

390
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,239
Speaker 1: I was just it was it was kind of it

391
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 1: was kind of crazy. So then so then I was like, yo,

392
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 1: like check it up to Josh, like let him score

393
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 1: a little bit. So he checks it up and blocks

394
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 1: him on the first play.

395
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, the kind of day I was like, yeah, it was.

396
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 4: It was.

397
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 2: It was kind of practice.

398
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 3: It was.

399
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 2: It was bad, but we made it, but we made

400
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 2: it look good.

401
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 4: Video looked even video look never know.

402
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 3: You would never know if you if you had it,

403
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 3: you can get the score or do you think would.

404
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: Be all ones? All ones? You hit like fucking you

405
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 1: were hitting logo shots. It was I would say twenty

406
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 1: four to five, maybe maybe twenty four to twenty five

407
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 1: to like maybe four or five. Yeah, would you agree.

408
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 2: Right, I was gonna say twenty two to five. We'll

409
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 2: go with twenty two to five.

410
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 5: Was that worse than your Utah workout with Donovan Mitchell?

411
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 4: Oh?

412
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, this one was probably worse because like the Donovan

413
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 2: Mitchell workout like that was like like that was serious,

414
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 2: like that was like livelihood. So so now I feel

415
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 2: like Donova was probably worse because I was like, we're

416
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 2: trying to get drafted and Utah was like, okay, you know,

417
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 2: we really like them, Like I had I had twenty

418
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 2: seven I think at the time.

419
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 3: And then twenty nine. That they had something that.

420
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 2: Twenty they had twenty eight because that was twenty Bradley

421
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 2: or whatever something Bradley big dude. But yeah, so they

422
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 2: were like, you know, maybe maybe we'll see it.

423
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 3: Got ugly saw and traded up, didn't they trade up?

424
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 2: They had They still have they had the picture, but

425
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 2: it was like one of those things where like like

426
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 2: Quinn Snyder and like their front office was like if

427
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 2: like word gets out, how well done in the workout

428
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 2: was today, like it's curtains for whoever lets it's out?

429
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 2: So yeah, so I just happened to be on the

430
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 2: other side of that. So yeah, that one probably was

431
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 2: worse because that when I was going like full go

432
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 2: and there wasn't there wasn't nothing I could.

433
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:50,399
Speaker 3: Do, gotcha.

434
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,120
Speaker 1: Sometimes it be is like that, like, yeah, you.

00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 2: Know, Boston Celtics beat the hell out of us. Sometimes

Speaker 2: a ring. I'm happy, I do. I do want to

445
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 2: talk about this. But then but again into that to

446
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 2: a couple of other kiff stuff. But you know you

447
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,120

Speaker 2: a store, yeah you always got a new watch. Talk

450
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,160
Speaker 2: about like what was the thought process when you first

451
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 2: started doing that? And then it was just the tradition after.

452
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 1: It was Uh, it wasn't for every store because I

453
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 1: couldn't afford it until like the fifth store.

454
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,639
Speaker 5: Did you go back and I end up buying five

455
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,159
Speaker 5: to the first five? Or no, no I'm not not

456
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 5: in retrospect.

457
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 3: No I didn't.

458
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: I didn't go and do that. But but yeah, it

459
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: was a it was a way for me, and the

460
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: whole Dinky episode I speak on it, and I treated

461
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: like the green face watches as like you know, the

462
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 1: like a master's jacket, you know what I mean, Like

463
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 1: winning a chip. That's like winning a chip for me.

464
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 3: You know what I mean.

465
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 1: And because it's a lot of work, a lot of

466
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,680
Speaker 1: hard work, a lot of planning a year and a half,

467
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 1: like eighteen months to make it happen for every door

468
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:41,400
Speaker 1: that we open, and uh yeah, it's just moments in time,

469
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 1: you know. So I just I just bought a watch.

470
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,919
Speaker 1: Actually my last watch was for the birth of my

471
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,879
Speaker 1: second daughter, so like it turned into like big moments

472
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:50,400
Speaker 1: in my life.

473
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 4: That's the Jalen strategy. Jalen does that as well.

474
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 2: Well big What was a watch you got?

475
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 4: Why you do that?

476
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 2: I don't know you know which one it is? It

477
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 2: was a nice little life gone.

478
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 1: It was a fifty nine to ninety in rows with

479
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:13,919
Speaker 1: the Tiffany stamp, not just the one there is no

480
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 1: regular it's yeah, it's yeah.

481
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 4: Is that a Scott Scott Udall purchased.

482
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 1: No, it's you can only get that from Tiffany my bad.

483
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 2: Oh damn, Yeah, you know it's it's a bag plug.

484
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 2: You got that ultimate plug. And I know I'm not

485
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:28,440
Speaker 2: going to.

486
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 1: It's it's one. It's it's it's definitely like one of

487
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 1: the watches I've wanted for a few years and wasn't

488
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 1: able to get. So it was it was worth the wait,

489
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 1: and and it just so happened that I was able

490
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 1: to get it. Around I was looking at a different

491
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: watch once my daughter was born, but I was able

492
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 1: to get it around the same time, so it ended

493
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: up being that for that moment, which I love because

494
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,920
Speaker 1: it's like one of the greatest moments of my life

495
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,120
Speaker 1: is having my second daughter born.

496
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,920
Speaker 3: So it's awesome. Yeah, that was awesome. Well, if you

497
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 3: ever don't want that watching one, just let me.

498
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 2: Know, got you, Yeah, let me When.

499
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 3: I asked first, I asked first, we have on camera.

500
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: I'll be getting another watch when we win a chip.

501
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,160
Speaker 4: I just say, if you had to watch in mind

502
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:11,439
Speaker 4: for that.

503
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't have a watch in mind for it,

504
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: but it'll have to be like probably the most I

505
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 1: spend on a watch, just because of how long I've

506
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: been waiting. Yeah, no pressure on either of you guys,

507
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 1: of course.

508
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 2: But then as a team, we got to get a watch,

509
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 2: and it has to be because I just want I

510
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,720
Speaker 2: want Jalen to like drop some bread on the watch.

511
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 2: I've been trying to get Jaalen to drop bread on

512
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,120
Speaker 2: the watch for a really long time.

513
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,640
Speaker 1: You're saying, like, Jalen doesn't spend spend money like.

514
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 3: That, No, he compared to compare to Joshua Aaron Hart. Yes,

515
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 3: I don't spend money like that.

516
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, he's very he's very smart with

517
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 2: his money. He doesn't he doesn't, you know, go with

518
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 2: Unfortunately my vices or watches a wine and they're probably

519
00:26:56,359 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 2: to the more expensive vices. But he does have like.

520
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:01,880
Speaker 3: Watch.

521
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 2: It works.

522
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 4: No, I don't want investment properties now you run them out?

523
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 2: Yea great investments not if you drink them.

524
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 3: You drink them. Yeah, you can't how you.

525
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,680
Speaker 2: Get I can't.

526
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 4: We could cut this part.

527
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,439
Speaker 5: But the perfect watch would have been the watch that

528
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 5: you showed the other night, Luke Colli.

529
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:30,159
Speaker 2: Oh oh yeah, that would have been.

530
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 1: There was a watch in the works. We want to

531
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 1: talk about what brand or which watch, but there was

532
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: a watch in the works to celebrate me becoming the

533
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: creative director of The Knicks, and it was going to

534
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: be only for the Knicks players to be to be

535
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 1: able to purchase. And it was incredible. It was an

536
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,640
Speaker 1: incredible beginning to a project that didn't end up happening,

537
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,200
Speaker 1: but we got to design it and wonder what it

538
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 1: would have ended up looking like.

539
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 2: You know, So what it was twenty two, the year,

540
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 2: first year right the Knicks was when you became a

541
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 2: creative director. So talk about that process. Of you know,

542
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,960
Speaker 2: obviously being a creative director of you know that NBA

543
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 2: team or NFL team you know is dope in its

544
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 2: own right, but then having a team that you ever

545
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 2: been a fan from sence you where you know, I

546
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 2: could remember like talk about that, how that made you feel,

547
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 2: Like the process of that.

548
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 1: It was I think it was probably like one of

549
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,959
Speaker 1: the greatest moments of my career and doing what I

550
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 1: do just because you know, like growing up. I can't

551
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 1: even describe like my attachment like emotional attachment to the

552
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: team because it wouldn't I can't even put into words.

553
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 1: It was like it's been a part of our of

554
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 1: my life and my dad's life and all my friends' lives.

555
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 1: Like growing up in New York, it was like a

556
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 1: there's a piece of like a big piece of our upbringing.

557
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 1: So getting to work with the team on that level

558
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 1: is something that I never even dreamed I'd be able

559
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 1: to do. And it means more than a lot of

560
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: other projects that I've been able to make happen, just

561
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 1: because it's a part of my life every day, you

562
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like it's a it meant a lot.

563
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 1: And getting to bring my daughter, I don't know if

564
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 1: you guys have seen that video, but I should show

565
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: it to you guys because it's it's emotional. But getting

566
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: to bring my daughter to the garden when she was

567
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 1: like I don't even know if she was two yet,

568
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: to like get her started, and you know, she she

569
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 1: watches Knicks games with me at home and and she's

570
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 1: like already dying or go to a game. Now she's

571
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 1: three and a half. But like passing that on to

572
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: the next generation is like, I don't know why. I'm

573
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:00,719
Speaker 1: getting the chills right now just about it. But like

574
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 1: that's how it happened with me and with me and

575
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 1: my dad, you know. And I was lucky enough to

576
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 1: go to a finals game in ninety four because my

577
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 1: dad's the guy I worked for, David Z. He was

578
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 1: my dad's friend growing up, and he had season tickets.

579
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 1: So when they made it to the finals, he had

580
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 1: to go away for something. I forgot what it was.

581
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 1: So he gave me and my dad a pair of

582
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 1: tickets to the game. So I got to see the

583
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 1: game against the Rockets. Mind you, they lost, but the

584
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:33,720
Speaker 1: Knicks lost. I should have said they you was lost,

585
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 1: and and that was like I remember how heartbroken I

586
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 1: was when they lost, you know, in the finals in

587
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 1: ninety four. But that's how like connected I was to

588
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: the team that it would literally like it would little bit,

589
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: it could change my whole mood, like for like for

590
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: like a month, not like for a day. It was

591
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,479
Speaker 1: like as a kid, that's how connected you get. So

592
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 1: not passing on those those kind of feelings to my daughter,

593
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 1: but just passing on this like feeling of love for

594
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 1: a team like that is I think it's I think

595
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: it's a beautiful thing. And that's that's why I that's

596
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 1: why I took on the role because I feel like

597
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 1: I have a lot to give in terms of passion

598
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: and love for the team. And that's where all of

599
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 1: the all of the work stems from. So wanting to

600
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: represent the team and present the team and the best

601
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 1: and the best way possible is always you know, on

602
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,479
Speaker 1: the top of my list of what I need to do.

603
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 5: What was like the first order of business when you

604
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 5: found out that that that you got that role, Like,

605
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 5: where do you even begin?

606
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 3: Well?

607
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: I started. I really started before that because I was

608
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 1: tasked with designing the first city edition, which was the

609
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 1: token that black jersey, and then yeah, exactly and and

610
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 1: I actually designed the second jersey before I came on board,

611
00:31:55,920 --> 00:32:02,479
Speaker 1: so it was it was it was a whole different

612
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 1: kind of responsibility once I came Once I took on

613
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 1: the role, but beforehand, we already put out two different

614
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 1: or even three different projects with the Knicks, you know.

615
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 1: So it started off with that Nike project and then

616
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 1: rebuilding that court in Queen's that was a that was

617
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 1: a great moment, but it was before it was before

618
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 1: I took on the role, So I already had a

619
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 1: couple of design projects. But then taking on the role,

620
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: I started I started to like work on the brand

621
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 1: as a whole and what the brand looks like, feels

622
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 1: like when it's communicated, when people see it, when people

623
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 1: touch and feel it in terms of product in arena experience,

624
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 1: like got to kind of get a look at the whole,

625
00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 1: at the whole business and treat And this is what

626
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 1: I always told them from the beginning, is like the

627
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 1: team and the brand are two different entities to me,

628
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 1: you know, and when you look at the Knicks as

629
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 1: a brand, there's a lot of there's a huge there's

630
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: huge potential there because to me, it's the most culturally

631
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: relevant team sports team in New York, you know. And

632
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people catch feelings if you're

633
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 1: more of like a Yankee fan or a baseball fan

634
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: than a basketball fan. But the truth is about the city.

635
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 1: When the Knicks play well.

636
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 4: There's nothing like it.

637
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 1: There's the whole city is a different play. It's like

638
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,520
Speaker 1: a whole different city.

639
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 3: You know.

640
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,640
Speaker 1: It's like, and I told Jalen this when he first

641
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: came on board and we started winning games, the feeling

642
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: of like having a competitive team on that level, on

643
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 1: a high level, it changes people's perspective on the city

644
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 1: they live in. And New Yorkers need New Yorkers need

645
00:33:56,240 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 1: that because New Yorkers work really hard. They hustle, and

646
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 1: you know, we need like a beacon of hope for

647
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 1: the city and the Knicks. Like in the nineties, it

648
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:12,840
Speaker 1: was there and like the hustle play from the players,

649
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 1: like how hard they used to play. It represented the

650
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,839
Speaker 1: city in so many ways, you know. And now we've

651
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:21,320
Speaker 1: gotten back to that place where I think people really

652
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 1: spend time connecting to the Knicks now in very different ways,

653
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 1: and the way the Knicks look and the way the

654
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 1: brand feels at the moment, I think we spent a

655
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: few years getting it right, because there were there was

656
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 1: quite a while there, a few years where like I

657
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:41,920
Speaker 1: feel like there was a detachment in that emotional bridge

658
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 1: that people had, you know. So I feel like we're

659
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 1: getting back to like a really good place. But in

660
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,399
Speaker 1: terms of the branding, there's the Knicks and then there's

661
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,919
Speaker 1: like every other team, you know, like what that mark

662
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: means and the emotional bridge that people have to the

663
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,200
Speaker 1: mark is unlike any other team in the NBA, and

664
00:34:58,239 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 1: I would say in any other sport to be.

665
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 5: Honest, Yeah, Yeah, it's an interesting challenge to like protect

666
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 5: the legacy of that mark while also building fishing the

667
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 5: boundaries right for sure.

668
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 1: And that for sure because because I'm big on and

669
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 1: like you see, with the rest of my work with

670
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,440
Speaker 1: brands that I work with, I try to stay true

671
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:19,759
Speaker 1: to the DNA, you know. And that's why the work

672
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 1: that I did with Michael Derrett is so important, because

673
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,360
Speaker 1: for this collection, it was important for me to go

674
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,320
Speaker 1: back and find the guy that designed this logo that's

675
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 1: been so impactful for us, you know, and finding the

676
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:37,279
Speaker 1: work that he did for that mark, all the all

677
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 1: the different marks that he put together and using it

678
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 1: for this collection and telling that story is really important

679
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 1: because we get new marks and new I like, new

680
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 1: kind of a new kind of identity with some of

681
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 1: these new you know, some of these new logos and graphics,

682
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 1: but still staying very true to the DNA from when

683
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 1: the logo was made, you know, and when it was designed.

684
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:01,720
Speaker 1: So it's a to like, it's such a unique moment

685
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:06,439
Speaker 1: of being able to dive deep into assets that really

686
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:07,760
Speaker 1: feel like they belong today.

687
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 7: You know, well they even you know, talking about that,

688
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 7: even what was it last year when we came when

689
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 7: you came out with the next collection, you had some

690
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 7: of the former players.

691
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:19,440
Speaker 2: Was it, Oh?

692
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:20,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, the alumni of course.

693
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 2: It's like it's cool to you like somehow Will.

694
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 1: And Mellow like it, Yeah, connect connecting it in that

695
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 1: way and then like I did the pod also with Spree,

696
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:35,280
Speaker 1: Will and Starks and like those conversations and involvement in

697
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:39,560
Speaker 1: their involvement, I should say, in storytelling, I think really

698
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:44,239
Speaker 1: resonates with the fan because like New York fans are

699
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 1: different man like Knicks fans are very different. They just

700
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 1: they don't forget and they're like super attached, you know,

701
00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:56,839
Speaker 1: and if you give them more than what they expect,

702
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: then they'll love you forever, you know, if you if

703
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,919
Speaker 1: you over achieve, this is like this is that kind

704
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,840
Speaker 1: of it. That's the kind of team. The Knicks are

705
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:09,800
Speaker 1: like overachievers. We've always been. We've had to become overachievers

706
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,719
Speaker 1: to win, you know. And it's that. I think it's

707
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 1: that mentality that gets the garden going and and it

708
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 1: really I think it tips over and I think it

709
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 1: helps the players feel more confident in their play and

710
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 1: in their talent, you know. So it's I think it's

711
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 1: a very and you could say that for many teams,

712
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 1: but you know, the garden is different. I've I've been

713
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: to most stadiums and it's doesn't compare. It's just the

714
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: garden on a great night, is good on the bad night,

715
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 1: good on a bad night.

716
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:42,880
Speaker 3: Yeah.

717
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,840
Speaker 5: This segment is sponsored by Tommy John, the MVP of

Speaker 4: That's it. That's crazy. M hmm.

725
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 3: Bro.

726
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 2: I would say I would think about like who else

727
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:13,720
Speaker 2: put in like outing? But yeah, there's too many people

728
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,719
Speaker 2: for me to give a m v P. So I

729
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:18,200
Speaker 2: got a first team.

730
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a tough one.

731
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:21,839
Speaker 5: I feel like I feel like no one gets where

732
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,600
Speaker 5: they are because of one person. Right, it's a support system.

733
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,759
Speaker 2: It's no no, but hold on, hold on, hold on

734
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 2: when you when you, when you asked that, GB was like,

735
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,320
Speaker 2: oh I got that, m hm so, but still oppon.

736
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,239
Speaker 3: My parents for sure. There we go.

737
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 2: He wasn't gonna say that.

738
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,879
Speaker 3: I wasn't who else was gonna say. I won't say Erica.

739
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 3: He could be up there, Erica, like you said, there's

740
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,800
Speaker 3: like a you have a good first team.

741
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 2: He's backtracking. Now he's backtracking.

742
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 3: That's nice, that's insane. I finished my fucking statement first. Okay,

743
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,280
Speaker 3: so now now it's gonna look like I'm kissing ass.

744
00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 3: But here we are. My parents for sure, right obviously,

745
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:09,280
Speaker 3: my sister Erica, she more than you think, like sacrificed

746
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 3: growing up, like she went to like every single away tournament.

747
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 2: It does seem like a kissing ass right now.

748
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 3: That's why I said it's kissing ass. But like you know,

749
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,120
Speaker 3: when like you're little, I don't know if you for me,

750
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 3: my little sibling was like annoying shit right, but then

751
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 3: she got to the point where she became my best

752
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 3: friend and once became once became best friends, and like

753
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,919
Speaker 3: I really realized, like she's like the dopest fucking person

754
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 3: in the world, right, And so when it came to

755
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 3: like now being able to work with her, she's made

756
00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:44,279
Speaker 3: my life like like as simple as it could be.

757
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 3: So like, I feel like we've grown into this point

758
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 3: where she became MVP, but like it started with her

759
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 3: sacrificing a shit ton, and then once she became best friends,

760
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:56,160
Speaker 3: it was it was curtains at that point. And obviously

761
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 3: my wife, Yeah, Eric.

762
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 5: Also stops us from getting canceled because she reviews every

763
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 5: episode and catches catches things that should not be in there.

764
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,680
Speaker 5: She stops Josh from from causing us to be canceled.

765
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 3: I should say, we all have our moments.

766
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:11,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, sure, her moments.

767
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:13,759

Speaker 1: I want to I want to know from I want

833
00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:28,839
Speaker 1: to know from you because obviously you played in many

834
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,000
Speaker 1: different areas, You played in many different arenas, you play

835
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:33,319
Speaker 1: for different teams. Like what do you say? What do

836
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,640
Speaker 1: you think the biggest differences in terms of what the

837
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 1: garden feels like? You know, like what does it feel

838
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 1: like to play? Does it? Does it really give you

839
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:43,840
Speaker 1: that boost? How does it feel?

840
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say even as in a way player

841
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:51,120
Speaker 3: you get the boost. I think just like the the

842
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:54,279
Speaker 3: aura of the garden. Yeah, like the way people talk

843
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,480
Speaker 3: about it or whatever. Even if like you don't know

844
00:43:56,480 --> 00:44:00,799
Speaker 3: anything about sports or anything. You know, if a round

845
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,840
Speaker 3: masks in garden or you go into the garden, it

846
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:08,879
Speaker 3: just feels different. There's nothing like you can you can

847
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 3: talk about it, you can say what you want about it,

848
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:15,400
Speaker 3: but you don't truly understan until you experience, like walking

849
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:18,800
Speaker 3: into an arena, yeah, I would say like ninety percent

850
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:23,279
Speaker 3: of people who don't even know what a bashet looks like.

851
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,680
Speaker 3: We'll walk into like another arena and versus the garden

852
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:29,319
Speaker 3: be like, oh this is different, this is different, and

853
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:35,920
Speaker 3: the history about it. There's just so many great players

854
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:39,879
Speaker 3: and performances and stuff like that. You're just That's why

855
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:43,239
Speaker 3: even at home, like if a team on the road

856
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:47,319
Speaker 3: starts playing, well, oh like you're gonna you're gonna hear

857
00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 3: people start cheering for them sometimes because it's like they

858
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 3: just want to see a great performance. But it's a

859
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:55,800
Speaker 3: tough place to play, especially when it's rocking, like a

860
00:44:55,880 --> 00:45:00,040
Speaker 3: playoff time. Yeah, and that place is ridiculous.

861
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:04,279
Speaker 1: You mean as a visitor, Yeah, as a visitor, Yeah, I'm.

862
00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 2: Also good and bad. Yeah, because obviously, like we when

863
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:13,279
Speaker 2: it's rocking, it's you know, they rock with us. But

864
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:19,640
Speaker 2: then it's bad because somehow somebody that you have no

865
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,359
Speaker 2: like this has career and nice it's like on any

866
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 2: given night because it's just like like jabs, like that

867
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:26,520
Speaker 2: energy that buy like as.

868
00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 1: You're saying, it pushes other players to play their best, right,

869
00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 1: Like I always say that, man, people turn into fucking

870
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:32,880
Speaker 1: Jordan in the Garden.

871
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:35,520
Speaker 3: I remember we played it was my first season here.

872
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:41,279
Speaker 3: We played Portland and some some dude had nineteen boards, right.

873
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,319
Speaker 3: I was like, this dude just rebound the hell out

874
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:46,360
Speaker 3: of the ball, and like Jeremy Grant had like forty

875
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,920
Speaker 3: four and like Anthony Simon's like thirty one. I'm like

876
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,200
Speaker 3: all these users playing out of their minds. But the

877
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:56,239
Speaker 3: one dude who had like nineteen boards out of nowhere, right.

878
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:58,920
Speaker 1: Thought, that's what that does, Like you just want to

879
00:45:58,920 --> 00:45:59,359
Speaker 1: shut up?

880
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 3: And then me and then we traded for him.

881
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:03,120
Speaker 2: About to say that that team, I'm about to say

882
00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 2: that that team, I think they would be a tribulating team.

883
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 2: They won.

884
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:09,399
Speaker 3: I think Grant forty it was was it forty?

885
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:12,200
Speaker 2: I think he had forty forty four on like twenty

886
00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:17,240
Speaker 2: nine feet from Yeah, yeah, it was stat Yeah about

887
00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:19,960
Speaker 2: the look, I think I think and had like I

888
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:20,879
Speaker 2: think they both had four.

889
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 3: They both had it had like thirty nine if he

890
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,240
Speaker 3: had like forty four. So basically yeah.

891
00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 5: The other the thing that's so amazing by the Garden

892
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:29,719
Speaker 5: is like it's not the most modern, it's not the

893
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:30,399
Speaker 5: most high tech.

894
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,839
Speaker 4: Right, the into a dome's like dope aerina, but it's just.

895
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 5: Like it's the garden, it's an energy history, it's the

896
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 5: energy and never explain how do.

897
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:39,920
Speaker 1: You explain that to people? Like how do you explain

898
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:42,480
Speaker 1: the energy to people? It's crazy? And also how do

899
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:46,400
Speaker 1: you explain what that how the energy like trickles onto

900
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 1: the court because standing on the court, by the way,

901
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,200
Speaker 1: which I've I've been lucky enough to be on the

902
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:54,680
Speaker 1: court multiple times, like when the light hits the court

903
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:58,160
Speaker 1: and you're hearing the acoustics like in the garden, the

904
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 1: way you hear everything the court, I just I feel

905
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:06,239
Speaker 1: like sitting close to the court, you can feel it.

906
00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 1: But like playing on the court, like there has to

907
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:12,440
Speaker 1: be the transfer energy has to be like something that

908
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:15,080
Speaker 1: you can't you can't really explain it, but there actually

909
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:17,239
Speaker 1: I feel like there has to be some some kind

910
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 1: of physical difference in a in a player's ability when

911
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:23,600
Speaker 1: that energy like transfers over to the court, you know

912
00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:24,040
Speaker 1: what I mean.

913
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 2: But one, the lighting is different the lighting right like

914
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:30,560
Speaker 2: everything if you haven't been an MSG, every like the

915
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 2: crowd and everything is like that is dark and all

916
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,919
Speaker 2: the lights are focused on the focus on the court,

917
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 2: so it's really like you're on the stage, right, like oh,

918
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:42,319
Speaker 2: you're on the big stage, like you really feel like

919
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,359
Speaker 2: you're on the stage, everyone there watching y'all. So it's

920
00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:46,759
Speaker 2: like you have that, and it's like.

921
00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:49,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you got to perform, you know what I mean,

922
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:50,120
Speaker 1: Like you have that.

923
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:55,279
Speaker 3: Lakers do that too, Lakers do that. Yeah, there's only

924
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:57,520
Speaker 3: certain teams that even do that type of lighting.

925
00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:01,880
Speaker 2: Like it's not everywhere, and it's like only certain arenas

926
00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:04,440
Speaker 2: like that. I know, it's like Crypto whatever now, but

927
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 2: like that's Stables. Stables has the name, the MBLG has

928
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:11,760
Speaker 2: the name. Like, yeah, I think that's literally the only two.

929
00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:14,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think the bright lights right, they say

930
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,560
Speaker 1: them about the city. It's like you got to be

931
00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:20,840
Speaker 1: able to you know, you've got to be able to

932
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:24,920
Speaker 1: sustain in those in those conditions that you're on stage,

933
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:26,520
Speaker 1: like you said, you know what I mean. And it's

934
00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:30,560
Speaker 1: a it's interesting, you know, like some of these some

935
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:32,440
Speaker 1: of these new players we have this year, it'd be

936
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 1: interesting to see how they take that on. You know, yeah, yeah,

937
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:41,000
Speaker 1: I'm sure I'm seeing I'm trying to say, like if

938
00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:43,319
Speaker 1: they're going to get superpowers off it, you know, like

939
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:45,880
Speaker 1: I'm trying to see if like that'll uplift them to

940
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:47,120
Speaker 1: take it to the next level.

941
00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 5: You know what, what did Jared Allen say after you

942
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,840
Speaker 5: guys eliminated them in round one? The lights were brighter

943
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:54,840
Speaker 5: than expected or something?

944
00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.

945
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:02,200
Speaker 2: I got playoff time like and like y'all know, like

946
00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:05,000
Speaker 2: it's like if you go to the Garden, I would say,

947
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 2: if you're only able to go to like two games

948
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:11,120
Speaker 2: a year, you got to go to Opening Night and

949
00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:14,040
Speaker 2: then if you're able to do a playoff game, because

950
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:18,040
Speaker 2: those two nights or I want Knights play playoffs or

951
00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:23,399
Speaker 2: whatever like are the energy is outrageous. Like it's it's

952
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 2: like they're mean other than like Boston Ring Night or

953
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,240
Speaker 2: Ring Night about it, Like you won't see another Opening

954
00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 2: Night that has that much energy.

955
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:37,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're talking about it too.

956
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:39,760
Speaker 5: The NBA definitely knows what they're doing with the scheduling

957
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:42,839
Speaker 5: because like a night against Indiana, I come on, yeah,

00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:04,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I was really hyped to see that Kiff

Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's and it hurt.

983
00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:10,680
Speaker 3: When I walked in Josh's garage one day, oh shit,

984
00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:14,000
Speaker 3: and I saw the I was just.

985
00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:17,440
Speaker 4: Like, I was like, no, it is nice any day

986
00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:18,279
Speaker 4: throughout the day too.

987
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,640
Speaker 5: You'll just go grab and you'll just like take swings

988
00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:22,040
Speaker 5: in your living room like swings.

989
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:25,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, this has just trying to get the repetition down.

990
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:29,439
Speaker 3: Josh's like thirty sets of clubs. He doesn't need another,

991
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,160
Speaker 3: he doesn't need another set.

992
00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:33,600
Speaker 2: You need a couple of sets.

993
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:36,400
Speaker 3: It's like thirty how many sets of clubs you have?

994
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:41,640
Speaker 2: No, I have three or four, But you need you need,

995
00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:43,800
Speaker 2: you know certain ones, like I have one set of

996
00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:45,560
Speaker 2: mine and when you're when you're ready, it's easier to

997
00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:47,000
Speaker 2: geteah exactly, you have one here.

998
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:48,279
Speaker 3: That's very true.

999
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:53,040
Speaker 1: But listen, it's honestly. We we wanted to for round two,

1000
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:56,560
Speaker 1: for for the for the gradient metal metal clubs that were,

1001
00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:59,200
Speaker 1: in my opinion, the nicest clubs in the world. But

1002
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:04,160
Speaker 1: we wanted to make lefty clubs. But it's it's not

1003
00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:07,080
Speaker 1: as easy as it as it sounds. It's just it's

1004
00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 1: a different process for another collection and a whole other

1005
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:12,880
Speaker 1: thing and tailor made couldn't make it happen for the

1006
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:17,120
Speaker 1: second round. But we're gonna we'll see what we could do.

1007
00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:20,000
Speaker 3: I'm just there's some points in my life I'm happy

1008
00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:22,879
Speaker 3: my dad made me lefty, and then like that I'm

1009
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:26,320
Speaker 3: not like I do everything else.

1010
00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:27,840
Speaker 1: Right handed, Like stop it.

1011
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:30,360
Speaker 3: I didn't know that right right handed. I eat right handed,

1012
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:35,920
Speaker 3: but sports like I throw left, I throw left handed.

1013
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:41,520
Speaker 3: I like, huh, well, next topic, next topic.

1014
00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:44,080
Speaker 2: Well you know what he was doing. So we're talking

1015
00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:48,000
Speaker 2: about collapse. So I want to go through your thought

1016
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:52,400
Speaker 2: process of you know, picking up, because one, you guys

1017
00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:55,759
Speaker 2: have crazy amount of collapse. But it's not just like

1018
00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:59,160
Speaker 2: you know, Taylor, you know, you have golf, you have

1019
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:01,560
Speaker 2: shoes with like you know, new ballan Ax, but then

1020
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:08,760
Speaker 2: you have Bugaboo strollers you have but yeah, parachute sheets,

1021
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:14,480
Speaker 2: like it's you. Your collab are in every really aspect

1022
00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:16,440
Speaker 2: of life. So what goes through your process when you're

1023
00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:19,440
Speaker 2: trying to figure out, okay, what what's the next collab?

1024
00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:20,080
Speaker 2: What collab?

1025
00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:23,560
Speaker 1: You know, it's so very early on when the brand

1026
00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:28,000
Speaker 1: became or when when when the retailer became a brand?

1027
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,440
Speaker 1: Early on I made the decision that like I was

1028
00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:34,919
Speaker 1: gonna like infuse my entire life into what I do

1029
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:37,400
Speaker 1: for the brand, you know, and not keep my life

1030
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:43,040
Speaker 1: and the brand separate. So the idea when when I

1031
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,520
Speaker 1: sat down and really thought about how I was going

1032
00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:51,160
Speaker 1: to invest into into the brand. I decided that I

1033
00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:53,320
Speaker 1: wanted it to be a universe of everything I loved,

1034
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:56,000
Speaker 1: you know, and everything that I'm passionate about, and also

1035
00:53:56,160 --> 00:54:02,560
Speaker 1: like mature with me and and be exactly what it

1036
00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:05,040
Speaker 1: is that I want in my closet and what I need,

1037
00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:08,840
Speaker 1: what I need for myself, you know, so or for

1038
00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:12,440
Speaker 1: my family too, you know, because it's men's, men's, women's

1039
00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:16,960
Speaker 1: and kids. But now thinking about the spectrum and everything

1040
00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:19,279
Speaker 1: we work on and the different kind of product that

1041
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:23,160
Speaker 1: we work on, KIT is not like a brand that

1042
00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:25,640
Speaker 1: does one thing. KIT is a lifestyle you know. KIT

1043
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 1: is a lifestyle brand that does many things. So you know,

1044
00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:32,759
Speaker 1: we work with BMW on cars like that are one

1045
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:35,960
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty grand, and then we work on you know,

1046
00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:40,279
Speaker 1: boxes of cereal with cheerios, you know, And it's like

1047
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:45,200
Speaker 1: an eight dollars way to buy into the brand, you know,

1048
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:50,600
Speaker 1: and consume some kind of product that can play a

1049
00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:53,040
Speaker 1: part in how you see fit, you know what I mean.

1050
00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:58,960
Speaker 1: So it's it's really and that's I guess like a

1051
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 1: big part of that is like we opened up the

1052
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:02,719
Speaker 1: ice cream shop, it was meant to be like this

1053
00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:05,480
Speaker 1: experience that you could have in the shop that'll make

1054
00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:08,200
Speaker 1: you smile, so like you don't always have to be

1055
00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:11,319
Speaker 1: shopping for product or buying product. You could just come

1056
00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:13,319
Speaker 1: there and hang out and read a magazine and buy

1057
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:18,120
Speaker 1: some ice cream and uh. And that opened up, Like

1058
00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:23,439
Speaker 1: that opened up the mentality that we have here now,

1059
00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:26,960
Speaker 1: which is like building a universe, you know, and having

1060
00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:29,839
Speaker 1: our point of view. And I think that that's been

1061
00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:34,600
Speaker 1: really consistent across everything that I love and I'm passionate about.

1062
00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:38,560
Speaker 3: Is there a collad that you're that you haven't done

1063
00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:42,160
Speaker 3: yet that you really want to work with if you

1064
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:42,960
Speaker 3: can talk about it.

1065
00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:46,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, there are a few, Like we were working on

1066
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:51,120
Speaker 1: some really big ones that you'll see next year beginning

1067
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:56,760
Speaker 1: of next year that take us even further further down,

1068
00:55:56,880 --> 00:56:04,240
Speaker 1: like experiential slash hospitality that expand in that region. Because

1069
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,520
Speaker 1: ever since we opened Saedel's in Paris, and we've been

1070
00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:11,920
Speaker 1: able to service an incredible amount of people on a

1071
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:17,520
Speaker 1: very high level with an incredibly just incredibly talented chef

1072
00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:20,279
Speaker 1: out there, Like we've been able to like figure out

1073
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:26,760
Speaker 1: how to cater to people in other ways and product.

1074
00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:30,400
Speaker 1: So I think that hospitality is going to see something

1075
00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:32,440
Speaker 1: where we're going to disrupt the market and do something

1076
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:37,759
Speaker 1: really really elevated and lux And then also on the

1077
00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:39,840
Speaker 1: product side, like we've gone as far as like I

1078
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:42,160
Speaker 1: said before, like working on a car with BMW that's

1079
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:48,880
Speaker 1: going to expand even further than cars into other areas

1080
00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:52,360
Speaker 1: that are just like insane. So like these are all

1081
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:55,040
Speaker 1: like aspirational moments for the brand. We're going to turn

1082
00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:58,879
Speaker 1: fifteen fifteen, in twenty six, we'll be fifteen years old,

1083
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:04,680
Speaker 1: so and I'm turning I'm forty two now, so like

1084
00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:08,080
Speaker 1: my lifestyle has changed obviously now I'm a dad, a

1085
00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:12,040
Speaker 1: father of two. We travel a lot, and we're a

1086
00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:14,560
Speaker 1: global brand now, so I'm traveling to different regions and

1087
00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:18,160
Speaker 1: I'm getting inspired by different cultures and that's all feeding

1088
00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:20,800
Speaker 1: back into the brand and allowing me to think bigger.

1089
00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:24,960
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean it's just gonna it's it's not

1090
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:32,000
Speaker 1: like scheduled scaling, Like I don't have to scale. I'm

1091
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:35,080
Speaker 1: not pressured to scale by any means. So like it'll happen.

1092
00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:36,960
Speaker 1: Everything is happening when the time is right and when

1093
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:37,720
Speaker 1: it feels right to me.

1094
00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:42,000
Speaker 4: You know, do you think we'll ever see Kith residences?

1095
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:46,840
Speaker 1: I'll never say never, because to me, I always work

1096
00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:49,200
Speaker 1: on things that I think the market like, I think

1097
00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:51,480
Speaker 1: that there's a void for it, you know, or avoid.

1098
00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:53,480
Speaker 1: When I feel like there's a void in the marketplace,

1099
00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:56,440
Speaker 1: I end up wanting to work on those type of products.

1100
00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:59,520
Speaker 1: Similar to like footwear, you know that there'll be styles

1101
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:01,640
Speaker 1: with certain brands that I feel like, you know, need

1102
00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:03,680
Speaker 1: to come back because it's a void for that kind

1103
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:07,040
Speaker 1: of product. Same in apparel, like when I feel like

1104
00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:10,280
Speaker 1: it's time for certain things to come out, we'll go

1105
00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:13,840
Speaker 1: and do some different things. So with residences, I feel

1106
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:15,640
Speaker 1: like there is a you know, there is a void.

1107
00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 1: I'm just not I'm not one hundred percent ready for

1108
00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:19,920
Speaker 1: that just yet. But I'll never say never.

1109
00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:20,920
Speaker 4: It's a bit undertaking.

1110
00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:26,640
Speaker 1: That's not happening, that's never happening.

1111
00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:29,280
Speaker 4: Twelve Yeah, no.

1112
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:37,120
Speaker 1: Way, si ie twelve healies to watch my story, bring.

1113
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:40,560
Speaker 2: A my sign Kith Residences, just buy your student app

1114
00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:42,520
Speaker 2: get the friend of Family discount.

1115
00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:47,120
Speaker 5: Is because I love Miami and there's so many every

1116
00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:48,400
Speaker 5: consumer brand has residence.

1117
00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:51,760
Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, they're going too much that that's a

1118
00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:54,240
Speaker 1: little bit that's a little bit different from what I

1119
00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:56,440
Speaker 1: think about when I think about residence. Yes, like I

1120
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:59,800
Speaker 1: think about community and how people want to interact with

1121
00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 1: like their lifestyle with a concept. It's just a different

1122
00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:08,280
Speaker 1: a different kind of concept for sure, you know what

1123
00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:11,680
Speaker 1: I mean, thinking about entertainment and food and you know,

1124
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:15,080
Speaker 1: community a bit different from what these other guys are doing.

1125
00:59:15,640 --> 00:59:18,000
Speaker 5: One thing that I think is clear whenever you guys

1126
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:20,240
Speaker 5: do collabs, is it still it honors the brand that

1127
00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:22,560
Speaker 5: you're collaborating with. What it still feels like kith. So

1128
00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:24,560
Speaker 5: how do like, how do those conversations go? What are

1129
00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:26,400
Speaker 5: like the guiding principles that you guys have when when

1130
00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:27,400
Speaker 5: you're doing those Yeah.

1131
00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:29,560
Speaker 1: And that's what you just mentioned is key. The fact

1132
00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:32,840
Speaker 1: that you just mentioned that is like that's like always

1133
00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:34,840
Speaker 1: been the goal to end up there, right, for people

1134
00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:39,080
Speaker 1: to acknowledge the consistency of like the red thread between

1135
00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:41,600
Speaker 1: what we do, but also always staying true to the

1136
00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:46,360
Speaker 1: DNA of a brand. We're storytellers, you know, and we're product.

1137
00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:49,080
Speaker 1: You know, product is always king, But like fifty percent

1138
00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:52,480
Speaker 1: of our responsibility is to build incredible product. But the

1139
00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:55,120
Speaker 1: other fifty percent is to make sure that people buy

1140
00:59:55,160 --> 00:59:57,960
Speaker 1: product for the right reasons so they've got it. There

1141
00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:00,320
Speaker 1: has to like we have to answer the why before

1142
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:03,320
Speaker 1: we work on anything, and that why is then translated

1143
01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:06,000
Speaker 1: to the consumer in really creative ways, and it's I

1144
01:00:06,040 --> 01:00:09,480
Speaker 1: think we've gotten better and better at creating assets that

1145
01:00:09,560 --> 01:00:12,840
Speaker 1: speak to the consumer and help, you know, build emotional

1146
01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:15,280
Speaker 1: bridges to the product before they buy it.

1147
01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:19,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, the content rollout around the Attronic collection was really cool.

1148
01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:20,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a lot of That was a lot

1149
01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:23,560
Speaker 1: of fun. I think that that's probably like probably the

1150
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:27,640
Speaker 1: best content that we've created. It's very recent, obviously, but

1151
01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:33,960
Speaker 1: working with Georgio he's ninety, you know, celebrating his life

1152
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:38,040
Speaker 1: and having you know, I always feel like we take

1153
01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:41,960
Speaker 1: on that burden of needing to celebrate either the brand

1154
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:43,800
Speaker 1: or the person that we work with, and for him,

1155
01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:46,520
Speaker 1: I mean that's massive to work with a you know,

1156
01:00:46,560 --> 01:00:49,520
Speaker 1: a talent and an icon like like Georgio. So we

1157
01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 1: have to go all and.

1158
01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:55,640
Speaker 3: Let's talk about the USA and the USA USA basketball?

1159
01:00:57,160 --> 01:00:59,360

01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:19,600
Speaker 2: Yeah? I think, uh no, we're not talking about that.

1165
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:26,200
Speaker 2: So the twenty twenty four Olympics in Paris. You rode

1166
01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:31,240
Speaker 2: out the USA basketball collab KD. Talk about that, you know,

1167
01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:36,160
Speaker 2: because we're big USA basketball advocates here. So what we

1168
01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:42,600
Speaker 2: played USA basketball last year together friends and brothers. They's

1169
01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:47,640
Speaker 2: fun fun. So but to talk about you know that

1170
01:01:47,840 --> 01:01:50,560
Speaker 2: and you know, you know, work with Katie and this

1171
01:01:50,920 --> 01:01:54,200
Speaker 2: that that team who you know, one gold with no

1172
01:01:55,280 --> 01:02:01,959
Speaker 2: flaws or question marks of roster or anything like that.

1173
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:04,680
Speaker 4: He made it worse. I started. He made it worse.

1174
01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:08,640
Speaker 2: It's almost should have been I started. I told you

1175
01:02:08,640 --> 01:02:09,640
Speaker 2: you had my vote.

1176
01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:11,000
Speaker 3: Your vote doesn't mean ship.

1177
01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:12,280
Speaker 2: I was mad for you.

1178
01:02:13,240 --> 01:02:14,160
Speaker 3: That doesn't mean shit either.

1179
01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:18,919
Speaker 4: He's got the roommates vote, got.

1180
01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:23,200
Speaker 2: The roommate vote, captain, but you would say basketball club.

1181
01:02:23,240 --> 01:02:29,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, we know. I feel like the evolution of working

1182
01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:34,080
Speaker 1: on Olympic product has been on Team USA. Olympic product

1183
01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:38,000
Speaker 1: has been pretty incredible over the last I don't know

1184
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 1: it's been now, I think six years. And getting the

1185
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:48,360
Speaker 1: opportunity to work on Team USA basketball product is like

1186
01:02:49,520 --> 01:02:51,200
Speaker 1: on the top, on the very top of the list

1187
01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:55,680
Speaker 1: of projects that I wanted to work on. So thinking

1188
01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:59,440
Speaker 1: about KD and him being him setting the record with

1189
01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:05,120
Speaker 1: the most men and him also being somewhat on the

1190
01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:09,280
Speaker 1: tail end of his career. I think he deserves all

1191
01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:12,040
Speaker 1: his flowers. You know, he's such an incredible dude, an

1192
01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:16,280
Speaker 1: incredible player. We wanted to make sure that we shot

1193
01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:19,840
Speaker 1: the product on the right person that resembled, you know, excellence,

1194
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:22,720
Speaker 1: and that was him. So that was a lot of

1195
01:03:22,760 --> 01:03:24,919
Speaker 1: fun and the product. I think the product would sit

1196
01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:29,680
Speaker 1: like on the very top of our archive as some

1197
01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:31,520
Speaker 1: of the best product that we put out, just in

1198
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:33,640
Speaker 1: the sense of what it represents and the fact that

1199
01:03:33,680 --> 01:03:39,320
Speaker 1: we won the gold and got to see KD play

1200
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:43,240
Speaker 1: the way he did, you know, even before you know,

1201
01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:45,640
Speaker 1: before we knew he would and before we knew they

1202
01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:48,400
Speaker 1: would win, we shot him and that all turned out

1203
01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:50,760
Speaker 1: to be really great. And I would have loved to

1204
01:03:50,760 --> 01:03:52,640
Speaker 1: see Jalen there.

1205
01:03:53,200 --> 01:03:55,240

Speaker 2: be several kith Knights. Kith Knights.

1235
01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:16,080

1242
01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:35,960
Speaker 1: one night, which is short lived. But it's it's it's

1243
01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:39,760
Speaker 1: pretty it's pretty incredible the experience that we get to

1244
01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:45,720
Speaker 1: to offer the fans and those attending that night end

1245
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:50,960
Speaker 1: up leaving with products that are given to them and

1246
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:54,200
Speaker 1: that you know, they could purchase obviously in the store,

1247
01:05:54,240 --> 01:06:01,080
Speaker 1: but more importantly, like we take over the T shirt guns,

1248
01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:04,000
Speaker 1: the some of the cups that we do there, and

1249
01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:08,440
Speaker 1: spaces that we have within the garden, the in arena experience,

1250
01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:16,320
Speaker 1: the JumboTron and the graphics and obviously the court, and

1251
01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:19,160
Speaker 1: I feel like it's the perfect time to release the collection,

1252
01:06:19,520 --> 01:06:21,400
Speaker 1: you know, is to bring it all together and always

1253
01:06:21,440 --> 01:06:24,000
Speaker 1: have an experiential moment to celebrate the product that we're

1254
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:26,760
Speaker 1: putting out. So that's how this all came about. And

1255
01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:30,000
Speaker 1: this is going to be the third annual Kith Knight,

1256
01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:36,520
Speaker 1: and tomorrow night the Knicks hosts the Bucks, which is

1257
01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:40,200
Speaker 1: going to be an incredible game, and I think the

1258
01:06:40,320 --> 01:06:43,280
Speaker 1: energy will be really high, and I think throughout the

1259
01:06:43,360 --> 01:06:45,600
Speaker 1: last three years, the energy has just built up for

1260
01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:49,000
Speaker 1: this night, so the fans now know what to expect.

1261
01:06:49,120 --> 01:06:51,520
Speaker 1: But more importantly, like we're taking over different parts of

1262
01:06:51,520 --> 01:06:54,800
Speaker 1: the arena, you know, and year over year it just

1263
01:06:54,800 --> 01:06:58,800
Speaker 1: gets bigger and better, and the product has gotten really

1264
01:06:59,080 --> 01:06:59,760
Speaker 1: really strong.

1265
01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:01,840
Speaker 3: That's where I ken as I take home like ten

1266
01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:05,120
Speaker 3: of those cups. Really, oh, I have like a whole

1267
01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:09,160
Speaker 3: cabin of like those cups without a doubt. There's literally like,

1268
01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:11,600
Speaker 3: let's my go to cup in facts?

1269
01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:14,560
Speaker 1: Do you get them for free because you're jealing Brunson.

1270
01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:17,600
Speaker 3: Or no, well you go a captin I assume so

1271
01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:19,720
Speaker 3: I did they just imaginally show up my house.

1272
01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:22,040
Speaker 2: To took it out your check?

1273
01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:23,880
Speaker 4: Probably?

1274
01:07:24,200 --> 01:07:29,040
Speaker 2: But what we were saying earlier, it's cool because I

1275
01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:30,960
Speaker 2: mean you've I mean you've all you know, you've been

1276
01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:33,960
Speaker 2: with Dallas, but I've been with LA and New Orleans

1277
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:36,720
Speaker 2: of Portlands, Like you don't have these kind of nights

1278
01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:40,280
Speaker 2: where it's like now you have like Bobblehead Night and

1279
01:07:40,320 --> 01:07:42,840
Speaker 2: stuff like that, but it's nothing that you know on

1280
01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:44,440
Speaker 2: that level at this level.

1281
01:07:44,560 --> 01:07:47,200
Speaker 1: And then that's that's the greatest thing about this project,

1282
01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:49,919
Speaker 1: I think is it's gotten to the size that it's

1283
01:07:49,960 --> 01:07:53,959
Speaker 1: like there's no other team, no other brand like doing

1284
01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:55,560
Speaker 1: these type of things. And that's what we love best

1285
01:07:55,560 --> 01:07:57,720
Speaker 1: about what we do. We work really hard so we

1286
01:07:57,760 --> 01:07:59,720
Speaker 1: get to do these type of things and execute on

1287
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:03,919
Speaker 1: that little but the end result like affects so many

1288
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:06,880
Speaker 1: people in such a great way, such a positive way,

1289
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:10,200
Speaker 1: that that's I think starting to become you know what

1290
01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:11,200
Speaker 1: fulfills me most.

1291
01:08:12,160 --> 01:08:13,320
Speaker 2: You had a bubblehead night right.

1292
01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:17,439
Speaker 1: I still have that in my car, actually my life.

1293
01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:26,160
Speaker 2: Size right big head. For something that we do every episode.

1294
01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:30,880
Speaker 2: It's called pis me scrolling, So we look through tweets

1295
01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:37,200
Speaker 2: and ig comments and whatever else of picture me scrolling scrolling.

1296
01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:40,000
Speaker 1: So oh, I'm in there, you see me right there?

1297
01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:42,640
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, okay, So we got.

1298
01:08:42,840 --> 01:08:47,160
Speaker 1: Something I noticed about Jalen. By the way, because I

1299
01:08:47,360 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 1: you know, I sit, I'm in the front row whenever

1300
01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:53,840
Speaker 1: I go, and I go to most games and I

1301
01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:56,599
Speaker 1: get to see all the players up close. But Jalen

1302
01:08:56,960 --> 01:09:01,200
Speaker 1: doesn't make eye contact with anyone sitting in the stands.

1303
01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:04,080
Speaker 1: I noticed that about you. You must be the only person.

1304
01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:06,960
Speaker 1: And by the way, I'm saying it in a good way,

1305
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:09,400
Speaker 1: like you're so dialed in and focused that you don't

1306
01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:12,599
Speaker 1: want to like, you know, you want to stay focused

1307
01:09:12,600 --> 01:09:15,760
Speaker 1: in the game. And before I'm saying, you know, I'm

1308
01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:18,439
Speaker 1: saying during the game, during the game, I have never

1309
01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:21,439
Speaker 1: seen you make eye contact with anyone in the stands,

1310
01:09:21,520 --> 01:09:25,320
Speaker 1: front row second row in the stands anywhere. I have

1311
01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:28,760
Speaker 1: never seen you make and and that's how fucking focused

1312
01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:30,840
Speaker 1: you are. But I just I noticed that about you.

1313
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:32,880
Speaker 1: Is that something that you trained to do?

1314
01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:35,240
Speaker 3: Like it it's so much a couple of people I

1315
01:09:35,320 --> 01:09:36,200
Speaker 3: make eye contact with.

1316
01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:39,040
Speaker 1: But I've always wondered about it because I'm in the

1317
01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:41,320
Speaker 1: stands right there. Yeah wait, go back to that photo

1318
01:09:42,160 --> 01:09:47,240
Speaker 1: and you just hit a crazy shot and Victor Cruz

1319
01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:49,280
Speaker 1: and I are fucking standing there right in front of

1320
01:09:49,280 --> 01:09:52,880
Speaker 1: you playoffs, yet you are looking at the fucking dome

1321
01:09:53,240 --> 01:09:55,599
Speaker 1: like you're looking at the ceiling in the stadium.

1322
01:09:55,640 --> 01:09:58,360
Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, I don't, I don't know why. I

1323
01:09:58,400 --> 01:10:02,479
Speaker 3: just feel like I don't know.

1324
01:10:03,120 --> 01:10:04,479
Speaker 1: It's not a bad thing, it's.

1325
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:05,920
Speaker 3: It's just weird. Like now I talk about it, I

1326
01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:08,040
Speaker 3: don't really huh.

1327
01:10:08,520 --> 01:10:11,599
Speaker 2: Half it was partly like coach right, it was just

1328
01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:18,040
Speaker 2: I couldn't yeah, yeah, coach right.

1329
01:10:17,439 --> 01:10:21,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, Joshua hit a big shot or anything. We just

1330
01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:26,439
Speaker 3: had to run back. No emotions about to show.

1331
01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:28,280
Speaker 4: Then you get in trouble that one time he flex

1332
01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:28,880
Speaker 4: into the camera.

1333
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:30,920
Speaker 1: But yeah, are you getting Did it take time for

1334
01:10:30,960 --> 01:10:33,200
Speaker 1: you to get like more comfortable in the garden, like

1335
01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:37,320
Speaker 1: becoming that guy and hitting big shots and like did

1336
01:10:37,360 --> 01:10:38,200
Speaker 1: it take time for that?

1337
01:10:38,439 --> 01:10:41,760
Speaker 3: I would say it obviously the more you play and

1338
01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:44,400
Speaker 3: the more you know, it's it's easier. Yeah, But I

1339
01:10:44,439 --> 01:10:50,240
Speaker 3: mean as curious when I'm on the court, I just

1340
01:10:50,240 --> 01:10:53,880
Speaker 3: feel like it's whatever's natural happens. I don't I'm not.

1341
01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:56,760
Speaker 3: I can't like if I make this, I want to

1342
01:10:56,760 --> 01:10:59,160
Speaker 3: do this, celebrate. I want to like, like even my

1343
01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:01,439
Speaker 3: own three point celebrated. There's not something I just made

1344
01:11:01,520 --> 01:11:03,680
Speaker 3: up and started doing it and the kind of just

1345
01:11:03,680 --> 01:11:07,960
Speaker 3: like happened naturally, naturally, and so I don't know. Sometimes

1346
01:11:07,960 --> 01:11:09,959
Speaker 3: I just you just you go with the flow.

1347
01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:13,479
Speaker 1: Gotcha, gotcha? Well there I am. I'm celebrating with my

1348
01:11:13,479 --> 01:11:14,000
Speaker 1: boy Vic.

1349
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:16,599
Speaker 2: And then the next the next one is.

1350
01:11:17,120 --> 01:11:22,400
Speaker 1: That that was a great night. Is that in the middle, Yeah,

1351
01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:26,160

1352
01:11:26,760 --> 01:11:30,760
Speaker 1: Yeah that's in Uh, that's in the suite. That was

01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:31,320

01:11:32,880 --> 01:11:35,840
Speaker 3: Was that New York? Probably know that just night?

1355
01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:38,479
Speaker 1: Probably I think that's the same night that.

1356
01:11:38,479 --> 01:11:42,320
Speaker 2: The same night I had be because they're the same fits.

1357
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:43,760
Speaker 3: I was not ye.

1358
01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:47,559
Speaker 4: Details you had some fan questions, fan questions?

1359
01:11:47,640 --> 01:11:47,880
Speaker 3: Is good?

1360
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:48,799
Speaker 1: We have fan questions.

1361
01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:50,760
Speaker 5: So we whenever we have a guest, like before, we

1362
01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:53,040
Speaker 5: recordable drop it on Twitter ask ask them any questions.

1363
01:11:53,080 --> 01:11:53,920
Speaker 4: You want this.

1364
01:11:54,040 --> 01:11:56,639
Speaker 1: Exrectly from the fans. Okay, so let's talk.

1365
01:11:56,760 --> 01:11:59,599
Speaker 5: Nixt Underscore says, what made you just want to turn

1366
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:02,240
Speaker 5: the City connect jerseys from black and white and stray

1367
01:12:02,280 --> 01:12:05,120
Speaker 5: away from a stray away from a new concept?

1368
01:12:05,120 --> 01:12:07,840
Speaker 4: What is the creative process of that? I don't know

1369
01:12:07,880 --> 01:12:12,320
Speaker 4: if I understand that word in connect from black and white?

1370
01:12:12,680 --> 01:12:13,439
Speaker 1: What made you want to say?

1371
01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:17,599
Speaker 4: I guess maybe stray from black and white and go concept.

1372
01:12:18,439 --> 01:12:21,519
Speaker 1: So I had this idea of having like a three

1373
01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:27,800
Speaker 1: jersey basically like three volumes or three chapters of black

1374
01:12:27,880 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 1: jerseys when I first started designing into the City edition,

1375
01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:39,360
Speaker 1: So the first three were black, and then after that

1376
01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:41,559
Speaker 1: we and I don't know if you remember what those

1377
01:12:41,600 --> 01:12:46,280
Speaker 1: looked like, but I'm sure you do. And then after

1378
01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:48,559
Speaker 1: that we wanted to come up with this concept that

1379
01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:53,800
Speaker 1: paid homage to Frank Sinatra from New York, New York.

1380
01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:58,200
Speaker 1: We thought that that was an incredible idea, and double

1381
01:12:58,240 --> 01:13:01,320
Speaker 1: stamping that logo looked really great, and then the subtle

1382
01:13:01,360 --> 01:13:03,320
Speaker 1: pin stripe on the logo because the Knick's never had

1383
01:13:03,320 --> 01:13:08,640
Speaker 1: a pin stripe jersey, so having like this subtle pin

1384
01:13:08,720 --> 01:13:11,640
Speaker 1: stripe with a double stamp logo and keeping it like

1385
01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:14,639
Speaker 1: close to the original. So we didn't change the font

1386
01:13:14,880 --> 01:13:16,720
Speaker 1: on this one. This is like the latest one we're

1387
01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:21,200
Speaker 1: talking about this year. People have seen it. It leaked already,

1388
01:13:22,120 --> 01:13:25,480
Speaker 1: but it's gonna It's gonna be a white City edition jersey,

1389
01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:28,000
Speaker 1: and I always felt like whites look the best on

1390
01:13:28,040 --> 01:13:31,920
Speaker 1: the players. It just looks crisp and and it's it's

1391
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:33,639
Speaker 1: kind of like it's kind of loud, you know, it's

1392
01:13:33,680 --> 01:13:36,880
Speaker 1: louder than the Royal. So I really like, I like

1393
01:13:36,960 --> 01:13:39,400
Speaker 1: these two and that's a series to me. It'll end

1394
01:13:39,439 --> 01:13:41,320
Speaker 1: after this one, so that this will be like two

1395
01:13:41,360 --> 01:13:44,360
Speaker 1: and done. But I wanted a home and away for

1396
01:13:44,360 --> 01:13:46,200
Speaker 1: that concept because I felt like the concept was really

1397
01:13:46,240 --> 01:13:49,360
Speaker 1: strong and a lot of people don't know that it's

1398
01:13:49,400 --> 01:13:53,439
Speaker 1: like New York, New York. I don't know that, Yeah,

1399
01:13:52,960 --> 01:13:55,559
Speaker 1: the off of Sinatra, simple mind.

1400
01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:55,840
Speaker 4: You know that?

1401
01:13:56,640 --> 01:13:59,760
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, if you if you, you know, we're

1402
01:13:59,760 --> 01:14:02,559
Speaker 2: really a big Nick and Kit fan. The video of

1403
01:14:02,600 --> 01:14:05,920
Speaker 2: me getting baked by Jalen was to the song New York, New.

1404
01:14:05,880 --> 01:14:08,960
Speaker 1: York Baked All right.

1405
01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:09,519
Speaker 3: I wasn't.

1406
01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:13,400
Speaker 4: I wasn't even focused on the song.

1407
01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:17,719
Speaker 2: No, you don't know what time it is. It's game time.

1408
01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:20,400
Speaker 4: College football and the NFL are in full swing.

1409
01:14:20,600 --> 01:14:23,479
Speaker 5: The NBA and NHL now starting back up, and there's

1410
01:14:23,560 --> 01:14:25,479
Speaker 5: no better place to get tickets than game time.

1411
01:14:25,840 --> 01:14:28,519
Speaker 4: They make getting tickets fast and easy. Josh, let's hit

1412
01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:29,320
Speaker 4: up a Commanders game.

01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:33,320
Speaker 3: Game Time has a new feature, game Time Picks, that

1414
01:14:33,400 --> 01:14:36,200
Speaker 3: makes getting tickets for your favorite live events even easier.

1415
01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:39,120

1417
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:44,160
Speaker 2: to waste time searching the thousands of tickets.

1418
01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:46,280
Speaker 5: We were just looking to the game Time app browsing

1419
01:14:46,320 --> 01:14:48,600
Speaker 5: seats on game Time Picks to watch them Jade and

1420

Speaker 3: deal for you without having to waste anytime digging around.

1423
01:14:56,560 --> 01:14:58,400
Speaker 2: What I like about the game Time app, aside from

1424
01:14:58,439 --> 01:15:01,240
Speaker 2: the new game Time Pick features, is the allline pricing

1425
01:15:01,800 --> 01:15:04,640
Speaker 2: toggling this feature so it's a total upfront with no

1426

1442
01:15:52,880 --> 01:15:57,920
Speaker 1: Speak about the collection, but that's okay, but basically just

1443
01:15:58,120 --> 01:16:02,639
Speaker 1: a few a few quick highlights. Obviously you're wearing one

1444
01:16:02,680 --> 01:16:06,560
Speaker 1: of the jackets, but there's an aver X component to

1445
01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:09,840
Speaker 1: this collection. It's the first time that Kith worked on

1446
01:16:09,880 --> 01:16:12,679
Speaker 1: an av Rex anything, and I wanted to make sure

1447
01:16:12,720 --> 01:16:14,639
Speaker 1: that the first time we work on an Averx jacket

1448
01:16:14,680 --> 01:16:20,000
Speaker 1: it would be a Kith Nicks aver rex jacket leather jackets.

1449
01:16:20,840 --> 01:16:24,120
Speaker 1: I feel like that's the highlight, like the hero piece,

1450
01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:27,720
Speaker 1: if you may. But they came out really they came

1451
01:16:27,760 --> 01:16:31,400
Speaker 1: out really great. And the shoot for you know, the

1452
01:16:31,439 --> 01:16:35,559
Speaker 1: starting five that we had here, I felt like that

1453
01:16:36,200 --> 01:16:38,960
Speaker 1: shoot went really well and was incredible to see like

1454
01:16:39,040 --> 01:16:43,880
Speaker 1: everybody in the product in the way it fit everyone.

1455
01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:46,559
Speaker 1: Usually those moments don't turn out as well as they did,

1456
01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:49,000
Speaker 1: and I think the visuals coming out of that, I

1457
01:16:49,479 --> 01:16:52,320
Speaker 1: felt like it was really strong. So happy about that.

1458
01:16:52,520 --> 01:16:55,759
Speaker 1: And then the knits and the fleece and the jackets

1459
01:16:55,800 --> 01:17:01,000
Speaker 1: and the satin jackets. That's a new fabrication for some pieces.

1460
01:17:01,560 --> 01:17:04,880
Speaker 1: The satin bombers. Like I mentioned before, Michael Durett's marks

1461
01:17:05,040 --> 01:17:07,120
Speaker 1: are on a lot of the pieces, so you have

1462
01:17:07,240 --> 01:17:09,840
Speaker 1: like a lot of new Knicks marks that nobody's ever

1463
01:17:09,880 --> 01:17:16,479
Speaker 1: seen before. So I'm excited about that. And uh and yeah, round,

1464
01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:19,680
Speaker 1: this is the fifth This is the fifth collection, and

1465
01:17:19,720 --> 01:17:25,080
Speaker 1: it's gotten really big. It's like maybe Quinn tippled over

1466
01:17:25,120 --> 01:17:28,439
Speaker 1: time and now finally it's like a full collection, like

1467
01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:30,519
Speaker 1: the way that we would release a season for the

1468
01:17:30,600 --> 01:17:33,360
Speaker 1: Kid product. This is like almost as big as that,

1469
01:17:33,840 --> 01:17:36,200
Speaker 1: So pretty big, pretty big, you know what.

1470
01:17:36,200 --> 01:17:40,000
Speaker 3: That means what Quinn tippled, Yeah, what does it mean?

1471
01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:44,000
Speaker 4: Go ahead?

1472
01:17:45,120 --> 01:17:50,080
Speaker 2: Yes, sure, yeah, but it was it was but it

1473
01:17:50,120 --> 01:17:53,040
Speaker 2: was cool because when we when we shot for a

1474
01:17:53,080 --> 01:17:55,640
Speaker 2: new collection, oh that wanted things that we like we

1475
01:17:55,760 --> 01:17:58,920
Speaker 2: mentioned it was like last year was it was. It

1476
01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:01,960
Speaker 2: was cool, but it felt more like a capsule. Yeah,

1477
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:04,720
Speaker 2: but like this was like a full collection just like

1478
01:18:04,800 --> 01:18:07,280
Speaker 2: the amount of pieces, the quality of the pieces, like

1479
01:18:07,320 --> 01:18:09,760
Speaker 2: it was just yea, you can tell like every year

1480
01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:10,840
Speaker 2: it was like a step.

1481
01:18:11,160 --> 01:18:14,920
Speaker 1: And I'm not treating it like team I'm not treating

1482
01:18:14,920 --> 01:18:18,559
Speaker 1: it like team product. So like Knicks fans, people that

1483
01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:20,120
Speaker 1: want to wear the mark and people that want to

1484
01:18:20,160 --> 01:18:23,960
Speaker 1: represent the team now have the ability to do it

1485
01:18:24,240 --> 01:18:27,360
Speaker 1: on product on like really Pinnacle and luxury products, you

1486
01:18:27,439 --> 01:18:31,000
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So, like it's expense, there's expensive pieces.

1487
01:18:31,200 --> 01:18:35,479
Speaker 1: There's still T shirts and fleece pieces that you can get,

1488
01:18:35,560 --> 01:18:38,040
Speaker 1: but we wanted to elevate this thing and make it

1489
01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:40,519
Speaker 1: more like a collection than it would be like Team

1490
01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:42,040
Speaker 1: products like product.

1491
01:18:42,160 --> 01:18:44,640
Speaker 5: Team products not super wearable day to day, but you

1492
01:18:44,800 --> 01:18:48,280
Speaker 5: like made it yeah exactly.

1493
01:18:47,920 --> 01:18:51,000
Speaker 1: No, but it's it's it's amazing because like you go

1494
01:18:51,040 --> 01:18:53,920
Speaker 1: to the garden now and it's like people people are

1495
01:18:53,960 --> 01:18:56,200
Speaker 1: wearing you know, you usually go to any arena and

1496
01:18:56,200 --> 01:18:59,000
Speaker 1: they're wearing jerseys, you know what I'm saying. Like now

1497
01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:00,639
Speaker 1: you go to the garden and a lot of people

1498
01:19:00,720 --> 01:19:04,760
Speaker 1: are wearing like these like elevated pieces and pieces that

1499
01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:06,479
Speaker 1: you wouldn't normally see teams on.

1500
01:19:07,280 --> 01:19:07,479
Speaker 3: You know.

1501
01:19:07,520 --> 01:19:09,240
Speaker 1: So I think we've I think we've kind of like

1502
01:19:10,240 --> 01:19:13,559
Speaker 1: disrupted that market a bit on what team product can

1503
01:19:13,600 --> 01:19:16,479
Speaker 1: look like, you know, And it's basically treating it like

1504
01:19:16,479 --> 01:19:18,760
Speaker 1: a brand. I treat the NIXT mark like my own

1505
01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:19,559
Speaker 1: brand mark.

1506
01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:22,880
Speaker 5: You know, how long was the design process? Like how

1507
01:19:22,920 --> 01:19:25,519
Speaker 5: long has this collection been in the works, this particular one.

1508
01:19:25,640 --> 01:19:29,519
Speaker 1: We're already designing next year's collection, so like it's like

1509
01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:34,840
Speaker 1: thirteen months. I would say, yeah, yeah, and it's and

1510
01:19:34,960 --> 01:19:38,000
Speaker 1: you know, you try to insert like we have like

1511
01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:42,800
Speaker 1: a Papa shot a piece for this collection, like the hoop,

1512
01:19:42,920 --> 01:19:48,000
Speaker 1: like the digital hoop, you know, like there's coasters and scarves,

1513
01:19:48,080 --> 01:19:52,920
Speaker 1: and there's there's every there's like every type of accessory.

1514
01:19:53,120 --> 01:19:56,400
Speaker 1: You know, we did we did dinner where like last year,

1515
01:19:56,520 --> 01:20:01,519
Speaker 1: like plates and glassware, and it's it's getting it's getting

1516
01:20:01,520 --> 01:20:04,479
Speaker 1: pretty pretty complicated. Like the products that we're making, so

1517
01:20:04,520 --> 01:20:07,320
Speaker 1: it takes time to develop that. I got the cocktails

1518
01:20:07,320 --> 01:20:09,519
Speaker 1: and now now the footwear and wearing the new balances

1519
01:20:09,560 --> 01:20:12,679
Speaker 1: that releases in tandem with that. So it's a Madison

1520
01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:14,960
Speaker 1: Square guard. It's more of a Madison Square garden piece.

1521
01:20:15,000 --> 01:20:20,280
Speaker 1: But yeah, I feel like when you look back on it,

1522
01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:23,840
Speaker 1: that's and you look at like chapter one versus what

1523
01:20:23,840 --> 01:20:25,960
Speaker 1: we did with Nike season one and two and how

1524
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:28,959
