If you follow us, I'm pretty sure you 0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:53.640 watch a lot of our continents, all based on entrepreneurship 0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:56.960 and invest in. So Gary somebody that actually needs no introduction. 0:01:57.080 --> 0:02:00.800 He's been a pioneer in this base of not just entrepreneurship, 0:02:00.800 --> 0:02:04.320 but really online entrepreneurship as far as the kind of 0:02:04.400 --> 0:02:06.880 content even that we create. You know, he was an 0:02:06.920 --> 0:02:11.840 early adopter as far as social media to talking about 0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:15.480 you know, non traditional type of way of even presenting himself, 0:02:15.560 --> 0:02:17.800 as far as sneakers, hats and different things of that nature, 0:02:17.800 --> 0:02:22.280 which has become commonplace now. So he's somebody that he 0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:25.519 said a lot of blueprints and we've actually spoke to 0:02:25.639 --> 0:02:26.880 him a while ago. I think it was like four 0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:29.519 years ago. So just the follow up conversation. So first 0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:31.919 and foremost, thank you for coming, appreciate it. 0:02:32.480 --> 0:02:35.400 Proud of you guys, and congratulations got married. 0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:40.360 Yesiate, and you know in that four year journey, I 0:02:40.400 --> 0:02:42.160 just want to give you guys some flowers. I've been 0:02:42.200 --> 0:02:45.280 thinking a lot about the concept of flowers while people 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:47.840 are alive, you know, we got to give them out 0:02:47.880 --> 0:02:49.560 more often. I'm just it's been really great to see 0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:52.919 you guys build. So congrats and who's your audience following along? 0:02:53.160 --> 0:02:55.079 Thank you man, Thank you. So we got a lot 0:02:55.160 --> 0:02:55.920 to talk about. 0:02:56.480 --> 0:02:58.040 The first thing I want to ask for the last 0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:01.919 time we spoke, you were very adamant about NFTs. Yes, 0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:06.720 has your thought process changed being at the landscape of 0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:10.560 NFTs have changed or are you still bullish on NFTs. 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:14.400 I'm in the same spot I was, obviously. If you 0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:17.600 go back to those videos in twenty twenty one and 0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:21.280 twenty when I was talking about them, the talk track 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:25.400 was the same. This is early, this is like web 0:03:25.440 --> 0:03:28.240 one point zero ninety nine percent of these things are 0:03:28.240 --> 0:03:31.480 going to zero. You know, when people want to jump 0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:33.959 on me on that thing, they like to conveniently leave 0:03:33.960 --> 0:03:36.040 out all the videos I put out that said ninety 0:03:36.080 --> 0:03:38.840 nine percent we're going to zero. Three weeks ago. One 0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:41.040 hundred and thirty two million dollars worth of NFTs were 0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:45.840 bought in a week, but nobody, including the inner circle 0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:50.280 of NFT collectors even could believe that because the brand 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:55.360 of NFTs are so faded, so you know low from 0:03:55.400 --> 0:03:58.400 page to the Wall Street Journal in the spring summer 0:03:58.560 --> 0:04:05.760 of two thousand says the Internet was a fad because Amazon, eBay, 0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:09.440 you know, PayPal, their stocks went from one hundred and 0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:12.760 fifty dollars to four dollars three dollars because of the collapse. 0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:16.080 What happened in Web one point zero and what happened 0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:18.240 in Web three Ozero with NFTs was the same thing. 0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:24.360 Greed took over the macro the so am I bullish 0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:27.080 crypto punks, which was the first NFT I was most 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:31.960 talking about and excited about as the og. The real one, 0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:34.279 I think as we are filming right now, is somewhere 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:36.320 in the ballpark of two hundred and twenty five thousand 0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:40.000 dollars for the cheapest one. They were fourteen to thirty 0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:42.400 thousand dollars when I was talking about them. That's a 0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:47.640 good return. You know Peggi Punk Wins, Peggi Punk Penguins, 0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:53.320 you know board Apes, Azuki v Friends. There's seven to 0:04:53.360 --> 0:05:01.400 ten projects that are building through this winter, and you know, 0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:03.640 we'll see what comes out of it. Right So the 0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:06.960 cheapest ved Friend right now from series one, my biggest collection, 0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:09.560 the cheapest one as we sit here right now is 0:05:09.600 --> 0:05:13.479 six thousand dollars. That's above what everybody bought it for 0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:16.680 when they came out. Many are much more expensive than that. 0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:21.000 So yeah, I'm incredibly bullish because I believe that collecting 0:05:22.400 --> 0:05:25.400 is on the precipitice of being in the same place 0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:30.960 that music, sports, fashion, and food were. So let's, you know, 0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:32.880 let's really go into something that I think could really 0:05:32.880 --> 0:05:39.360 help some people right now. Sports. The nineteen eighty two 0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:44.240 NBA Finals Lakers sixers. I don't remember which game, so 0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:46.160 I don't want to get it wrong. Maybe game two three, 0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:48.800 I don't remember five, but I don't think it was 0:05:48.839 --> 0:05:52.679 one or the last game. The nineteen eighty two NBA 0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:57.720 Finals was on tape delay in America. They aired a 0:05:57.800 --> 0:06:03.120 golf instead of live NBA Finals game because it was 0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:07.919 that unpopular, rating that poorly at that point, the biggest 0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:12.480 athletes in sports in the fifties had to get jobs 0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:16.159 in the offseason because that's what they were getting paid. 0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:20.760 Coca Cola did not have a sports marketing department until 0:06:20.800 --> 0:06:26.159 the sixties or seventies. In the last half century, In 0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:29.520 the last fifty years, sports went from this thing over 0:06:29.560 --> 0:06:33.680 here to as big of a cultural phenomenon as we get. 0:06:35.200 --> 0:06:40.680 Music obviously has had a much more stronger impact in 0:06:40.720 --> 0:06:44.680 a lot of ways, but the profound nature of being 0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:50.280 a famous musician continues to get amplified. Celebrity culture was 0:06:50.360 --> 0:06:53.320 not as big in the fifties sixties as a pilot 0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:57.640 and an astronaut was more famous than somebody, or at 0:06:57.720 --> 0:07:01.800 least equal to somebody that was on film. I love 0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:04.800 to look at history to understand the future. I believe 0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:06.680 what you're seeing right now. You know these la boo boos, 0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:17.400 la boo boos, sneakers, watches, sports cards, NFTs art. I 0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:22.640 think that collecting is starting to gain extreme momentum. And 0:07:22.680 --> 0:07:24.960 the way that you go out with your girl and 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:26.600 sit with another couple and you talk about what do 0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:28.680 you watch on Netflix? Did you see the Big Game 0:07:28.760 --> 0:07:32.200 last night? Have you heard about this new rapper or artist? Like? 0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:32.760 You know? 0:07:32.800 --> 0:07:36.400 Why is the way fashion changes. We're all old enough. 0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:40.360 We're not fifteen to see baggy than tight than baggy, right, 0:07:41.120 --> 0:07:45.240 Timbos to Nikes to like we see it right. So 0:07:45.760 --> 0:07:48.600 the reason I mainly believe in NFTs is a couple things. One, 0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:53.200 I believe in the blockchain, crazy crazy, heavy crazy. We're 0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:56.440 about to go into the AI era. Every video on 0:07:56.480 --> 0:07:59.440 the Internet, literally ninety percent of the videos on the 0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:02.480 Internet ten years that come out every day will be fake. 0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:05.880 It's like on social media or just general correct. 0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:09.080 And so there will be unlimited videos of YouTube in 0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:12.280 ten years saying shit you never said, and none of 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:13.840 us will know if you said it or did it. 0:08:14.760 --> 0:08:17.240 And the only way we'll be able to say or 0:08:17.280 --> 0:08:20.880 tell is if you guys mint it on the blockchain, 0:08:21.080 --> 0:08:23.280 and there's a connection between the blockchain and the internet 0:08:23.480 --> 0:08:26.360 to show that this is real shit. I don't have 0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:28.760 to tell you guys about bitcoin and things of that nature. 0:08:29.240 --> 0:08:32.800 So I think that the blockchain is going to be 0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:38.080 the most important digital platform infrastructure of the next century. 0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:42.040 Money will be on that and so will collectibles one 0:08:42.040 --> 0:08:44.360 of the you know, I've been into collectibles my whole life, 0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:46.440 so I've watched it and now I'm really paying attention 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:48.160 to it. One of the things that fucks people up 0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:54.880 with collectibles is fake fake art, fake sneakers, fake sports cards, 0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:58.760 fake comic books. I had my boy years ago brought 0:08:58.840 --> 0:09:02.480 up fuckinger Man first appearance. We were fucking hyped and 0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:04.280 then they started great. And this was back in the 0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:06.720 day and the nineties paid real you know paper for 0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:09.440 us back then, tens of thousands was like a trillion. 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:12.560 We're like, yeah, I'm so happy for him. When grating 0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:14.000 came out and you could send it in, it can 0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:17.720 get authenticated. They're like, this is fake. One great thing 0:09:17.720 --> 0:09:20.120 about V Friends Series one, NFTs, They'll never be a fake. 0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:24.679 It's on the blockchain, right, That's a real crazy thing. 0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:27.679 So to kick off, I'm super hot on them. If 0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:31.040 you ninety nine point nine nine percent of the people 0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:34.839 watching right now have rightfully not paid attention for the 0:09:34.920 --> 0:09:37.120 last two three years because the brand got shit on 0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:42.800 right Brand's EBB and flow three years ago. We sit 0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:46.920 here Will Smith's brand here. Will puts out a kind 0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:50.000 of funny little rapvideo the other day, Little lower Will 0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:52.760 goes and makes a crazy bangervic movie in three years 0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:55.559 up right, we've all seen it. Ebbs and flows, right, 0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:59.120 Ebbs and flows, you know. On me growing up, the 0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:02.720 two shit is fucking sports brands in the world, the 0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:05.560 Golden State Warriors and the New England Patriots. Those two 0:10:05.559 --> 0:10:10.840 fucking teams sucked shit. Now, no better brands brands have 0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:14.040 been flow. Even in my fifteen year public career as 0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:17.440 a personal brand. Some moments I'm fucking hot. Some moments 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:19.679 I'm in the cut, little chill, up and down, up 0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:22.200 and down. You guys are feeling it ready, right. Some 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:24.560 moments you're like, we're fucking steaming. Other moments the six 0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:26.560 months you're like, fuck, what's going on? Other people are 0:10:26.559 --> 0:10:29.800 taking arty, you know, like that shit. So I think 0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:34.160 collectibles are gonna be a very big part of society 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:36.920 because I think it's a human truth. Stamps, coins, you 0:10:37.000 --> 0:10:41.000 go back to cavemen, rocks, artifacts, antiques. So I'm bullish 0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:42.920 on it. I think they'll be the predominant. You look 0:10:42.920 --> 0:10:47.360 at kids growing up, minecraft, roadblocks, NBA two K, they're 0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:51.079 buying digital fucking things. They're trading those cards. So I'm 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:54.160 bullish on it. The problem for NFTs as we sit 0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:56.280 here today is the brand is in the fucking gutter 0:10:57.000 --> 0:10:59.880 because people got fucking way too greedy doing dumb shit. 0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:03.800 Everyone thought every that would be like me telling you 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:06.600 every trading card is gonna be worth money. But what 0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:09.319 if the players such like crypto, It's like, that's right. 0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:10.160 I mean big coins of a. 0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:13.640 Most cryptos fell on artment that doesn't That doesn't mean 0:11:13.679 --> 0:11:16.840 that big coins not legitimate, correct and so. 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:19.320 But that's how everything is. Ninety nine point nine percent 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:22.080 of art is worthless, nine nine percent of watches ain't 0:11:22.080 --> 0:11:24.840 worth shit, nine nine percent of sneakers aren't worth collecting 0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:29.080 comic books, coins, stamps, the dot com bubble. It was 0:11:29.080 --> 0:11:30.880 the dot com bubble. The greed took up, by the way, 0:11:30.880 --> 0:11:32.760 That's why I started making the videos. I'm like, oh fuck, 0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:35.320 because I didn't make those videos up front, because I'm like, oh, 0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:37.240 this is gonna go nice and slow, like TikTok and 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:39.120 social media and like all the other shit I saw, 0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:42.880 and then it went real fast. You know, COVID people 0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:44.400 were at home, they didn't have other shit to do 0:11:44.679 --> 0:11:47.320 that the game was different than the world I lived in. 0:11:47.480 --> 0:11:49.720 There was no COVID when I was so the pace 0:11:49.840 --> 0:11:52.560 was different. Everyone was digital, everyone was on Twitter and 0:11:52.600 --> 0:11:55.840 social and so all that heat came in and people 0:11:55.920 --> 0:11:59.240 got ahead of their skis. Bad actors got involved, people, 0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:01.040 you know, looking for a quick buck, which is the 0:12:01.080 --> 0:12:03.199 quickest way to not make a buck, and she got 0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:07.000 fucked up and the brand got hurt. But again, the market, 0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:09.199 like for the people watching right now and be like, damn, 0:12:09.240 --> 0:12:11.080 is Gary fullshit or let me go check it. I 0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:13.319 think the ones that go look and be like, damn, 0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:16.120 that much volume is still going on. When that much 0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:19.760 volume is going on, ninety nine point nine percent of 0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:22.520 people think it's garbage. Well, then you know there's something. 0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:25.120 And that's kind of that's kind of what happened with 0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:27.600 sports cards and comic books. They crashed too in the nineties. 0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:30.280 But you but I was looking at eBay in the 0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:32.040 two thousands, I'm like, man, there's still a lot of 0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:35.839 people really fucking with this shit. Oh shit. And that's 0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:39.000 how it kind of goes wrestling, like when the Rock, 0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:41.920 when Hogan and Rest in Peace and Macho Man are 0:12:41.920 --> 0:12:44.480 doing their thing. Wow, then it's a lull. Then comes 0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:47.440 to Rock and Stone coll Bam. Then there's a lull then, 0:12:47.760 --> 0:12:52.960 like you know, I I think people jump off when 0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:57.600 things aren't fucking cooking, and I think sheep jump on 0:12:58.000 --> 0:13:00.640 when things are cooking. And I'm just in my own 0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:06.079 little cave by myself, in my brain, not being affected 0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:09.400 by anything besides what I believe to be true. And 0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:12.480 I'm running a marathon and I'm aware that in this 0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:16.880 social media AI world everyone's a sprinter, but life's a marathon. 0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:19.839 Yeah, it's great. 0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:22.840 Four years ago, this is interesting because AI wasn't at 0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:23.959 the conversation. 0:13:23.720 --> 0:13:25.400 Couldn't be, wasn't ready, It wasn't ready. 0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:28.120 Four years later, here we are, and I know you've 0:13:28.160 --> 0:13:31.360 been on the cuss of looking at the next trend 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:34.120 and looking how marketing has gone.

I'm not doing AI because 0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:50.600 I think it sucks up musicians and I fucked with 0:17:50.680 --> 0:17:54.120 the arts and music and that's fucked up. So I'm out. 0:17:55.040 --> 0:17:58.719 You're not out because of fucking you're sad that fucking 0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:01.960 Kendrick Lamar might lose some paper. You're out because you 0:18:01.960 --> 0:18:03.879 don't want to put in forty hours to learn a 0:18:03.920 --> 0:18:06.240 new thing, because you're tired because you just put in 0:18:06.280 --> 0:18:11.840 a lot of hours to learn the last thing. People 0:18:11.840 --> 0:18:12.560 aren't noble. 0:18:12.680 --> 0:18:16.400 People are lazy, But people are also scared though too. 0:18:16.440 --> 0:18:18.199 Us a lot of fear as far as it's going 0:18:18.280 --> 0:18:21.959 to take my job, or some fears are legitimate, right, 0:18:22.000 --> 0:18:24.520 like we've created something. When I say we humans have 0:18:24.600 --> 0:18:27.960 created something more intelligent than ourselves, that's kind of never 0:18:28.000 --> 0:18:29.800 been done before in human history, as far as like 0:18:30.240 --> 0:18:33.680 we don't know how far AI can actually go. 0:18:34.320 --> 0:18:36.159 Let me tell you something right now, I don't know 0:18:36.200 --> 0:18:38.400 if you know this, you definitely do this a little joke. 0:18:38.400 --> 0:18:40.960 I'm setting it up, we also created a bomb that 0:18:41.000 --> 0:18:45.919 can kill every person on earth. If the three of 0:18:46.000 --> 0:18:49.000 us intellects were chopping it up in nineteen fifty two 0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:52.760 and the US just dropped the fucking bombs several years 0:18:52.800 --> 0:18:56.400 earlier and blew out Japan and I and we were 0:18:56.400 --> 0:18:58.080 just chopping it and saying, where the fuck are we 0:18:58.080 --> 0:19:00.840 gonna do with this thing. If I sat here and 0:19:00.880 --> 0:19:04.439 said in the next seventy years, no country, no man, 0:19:04.600 --> 0:19:08.239 no woman will drop that bomb, everybody'd be like, get 0:19:08.280 --> 0:19:11.800 the fuck out of here. We think about what nineteen 0:19:11.840 --> 0:19:15.600 fifty was. We just dropped the bomb. The last thirty years, 0:19:15.640 --> 0:19:20.800 we've had two World wars, right, so in the last 0:19:20.800 --> 0:19:22.880 thirty years of society, we just got out of World 0:19:22.920 --> 0:19:25.320 War One, we just just just had World War Two. 0:19:25.560 --> 0:19:28.199 The US just dropped this bomb. Now Russia's got it 0:19:28.359 --> 0:19:31.119 and everyone's trying to develop one. And I said, in 0:19:31.240 --> 0:19:34.120 seventy years it will never drop. Nobody would believe that. 0:19:35.400 --> 0:19:39.040 My point of that little story is, no shit. People fear. 0:19:39.160 --> 0:19:45.679 People fear everything, humans fear. Most parents parent with fear 0:19:46.080 --> 0:19:48.800 every fucking Let me break it down. I don't love 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:50.320 to get political, as you guys know. Let me just 0:19:50.359 --> 0:19:56.520 make it real simple. Every politician weaponizes fear. Fear is 0:19:56.520 --> 0:20:00.840 how you control people. I'm not letting an another invention 0:20:01.560 --> 0:20:04.480 fuck me up, because guess what, when the car was invented, 0:20:04.960 --> 0:20:07.199 people were scared about that. Do you know what the 0:20:07.240 --> 0:20:11.720 word demonizing is? Demonizing comes from when electricity was invented. 0:20:13.080 --> 0:20:16.520 Word on the street, check this. Electricity gets invented. We 0:20:16.560 --> 0:20:22.520 have candles in our motherfucking offices and house electricity gets invented, 0:20:22.680 --> 0:20:25.879 and people don't put electricity in their home because the 0:20:25.920 --> 0:20:29.320 word on the street is there's demons in it. Like 0:20:29.359 --> 0:20:31.720 if you bring in electricity, you're bringing demons into your home. 0:20:32.040 --> 0:20:34.800 It's like magic, like just cut a light on. So 0:20:35.320 --> 0:20:36.760 how are you using AI. 0:20:36.920 --> 0:20:40.159 Have used it every day to think, to strategize for 0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:43.800 me personally, I as I think you guys know, and 0:20:43.840 --> 0:20:47.720 some people may know. I'm always thinking and then I act, 0:20:47.880 --> 0:20:50.840 and so I'm trying. They're not trying to think of 0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:55.520 a good one. I already referenced it. I'm fascinated by 0:20:55.560 --> 0:20:57.800 fashion trends because I think they tell you a lot 0:20:57.800 --> 0:21:00.199 of shit. So literally, like two three weeks to go, 0:21:00.200 --> 0:21:02.880 I'm on a plane, caught up my work just on 0:21:02.920 --> 0:21:06.240 some this is literally and by the way, I audio 0:21:06.320 --> 0:21:08.879 everything because I'm better with words than writing. So I'm like, 0:21:09.440 --> 0:21:14.840 I'm like, yo, chatty, I call it chatty. So we've 0:21:14.880 --> 0:21:17.879 been on this baggy trend again nineties. It seems like 0:21:17.920 --> 0:21:20.600 for the last couple of years it's coming like, can 0:21:20.640 --> 0:21:23.320 you give me the last forty years on like clothes 0:21:23.400 --> 0:21:26.520 being loose than tight than loose than tight, and what 0:21:26.680 --> 0:21:30.879 is your prediction on how long this cycle of baggy 0:21:30.960 --> 0:21:34.359 will last? And the reason I asked it is to 0:21:34.400 --> 0:21:40.600 get ahead of the next tight way correct. So, as 0:21:40.640 --> 0:21:43.359 an investor, if I see if so, that was just 0:21:43.400 --> 0:21:46.800 a random thought that I did, and the answers are crazy. 0:21:46.840 --> 0:21:48.920 They give you like all sorts and you go back 0:21:48.960 --> 0:21:53.399 and forth, back and forth, back and forth, and the 0:21:53.480 --> 0:21:57.359 answer is it gives me really sets me up to think. So, 0:21:57.520 --> 0:21:59.920 then in two years, if I see a new disse 0:22:01.280 --> 0:22:03.840 because when I saw Matt Happy, I was like, that's 0:22:03.840 --> 0:22:07.120 gonna hit kif watching Ronnie Firm from like, that's gonna 0:22:07.160 --> 0:22:09.760 hit Siegumann stables, those hats, I was like, that's gonna 0:22:09.800 --> 0:22:12.400
