1 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: I realized in my sleep to wake, which is when 2 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,800 Speaker 1: I have all my thoughts, that Kim Kardashian has always 3 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:21,799 Speaker 1: curated who she's going to be with, so in the 4 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 1: way that it's like hot and sexy. When you're dressing 5 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: hot and sexy and like an influencer that's on TV 6 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: and taken selfies and that air villagier girl, Why wouldn't 7 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:35,559 Speaker 1: you date a football player and go to Miami to 8 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 1: the super Bowl like that fit that time? But when 9 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: you want to be taken seriously in fashion and get 10 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 1: on magazine covers and you know, elevate your status. Because 11 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: she always took pictures only with people that were more 12 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 1: elevated than her. She was very strategic about who she 13 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: took pictures with. I know this firsthand. I know this 14 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 1: for effect. She only took pictures with people that were 15 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: at the level and above. Back when she wasn't his 16 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 1: big as she is now. So why wouldn't you play 17 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,759 Speaker 1: tennis with a better tennis player? And Kanye was more famous, 18 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: more respected, he was more respected in fashion and more connected. 19 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: So that's when she was with Kanye, who loved her 20 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 1: and she was his muse, and he changed her whole 21 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: fashion game, and that elevated her fashion game when she 22 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: was on her reality show. You need content, you need 23 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:27,119 Speaker 1: to move plotline. And now she's wearing a I Love 24 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: Nerds T shirt because it's bait for tech. She wants 25 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: a real finance guy, a tech guy. She wants a 26 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: hedge fund guy. She wants a major bag alert because 27 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: she's she now wants to be taken more seriously in business. 28 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: She's got a private equity fund, she's studying law. This 29 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: is Madonna that does the reinvention. She keeps reinventing from 30 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: the air ve lagier football player style to grab a 31 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: guy and have good content for my show that was 32 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: in its beginning years. Not beginning, but like you know earlier, 33 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: the earlier years, and date a fashion icon who is 34 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 1: a genius in music, to elevate that status, get yourself 35 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: to the Metcala, get yourself on the magazines. But now 36 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: you have fashion, you have reality TV. You had your 37 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: football slut girl era. Now it's about being taken seriously. 38 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: So she's just dangling Silicon Valley tech billionaire, mega hedge 39 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 1: fund finance guide bait. That's what that T shirt's about. 40 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: People were criticizing it as a style choice. It's not 41 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: a style choice, it's a life choice. It's a reinvention. 42 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: And the next chapter, trust and believe Kim Kardashian is 43 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: not marrying a Pete Davidson type next or dating a 44 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: Pete Davidson type Next, Someone's gonna pull up and have 45 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 1: a matching plane next to her. Hers is designed with 46 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: an air Mes interior. Someone will pull up and have 47 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 1: a Laura Piano interior in his team owners. She's looking 48 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: for big tech, big tech money now. So I took 49 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: Brinn to Taylor Swift and we went in Philadelphia, And 50 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: to be honest, I don't love crowds and concerts and 51 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: logistics and as me in case I get recognized or 52 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: everyone wants pictures, like I never know what level something's 53 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: gonna be. But often when it's about someone else, like 54 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift is such a mega famous person, like I'm anecdotal, 55 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: so everyone's just a Tailor Swift fan, so they wouldn't 56 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: even notice me or care. But sometimes I just I 57 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: don't know. There were a lot of people that recognized 58 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: me at the Taylor Swift concert, and I did have 59 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: someone walking me through and did play and wisely, but 60 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: what happened was Brinn is not a massive Tailor Swift fan, 61 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: and neither am I. I never have been, and the 62 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: concert was happening, my money manager said to me, I 63 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: have extra tickets at a box in Philadelphia on May twelfth? 64 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 1: Do you want to go? And I wasn't going to 65 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: say no because we don't live in Philadelphia, because I 66 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: hadn't made any plans to get them. And I thought 67 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: to myself, this was months ago. What happens if everyone 68 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: in Brin's school is into it and she wants to go, 69 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 1: I should say yes, city's tickets, And so I kind 70 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: of had them on the back burner, thinking I don't 71 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: know what we're going to do. So as it came closer, 72 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: Paul also had tickets in Boston and they were more 73 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: like on the floor, and that made me kind of 74 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: nervous because I just don't know who's around me, what 75 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: we're dealing with, and getting in and getting out, and 76 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: I do get anxiety about that kind of thing. So 77 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: I thought, oh, well, this situation in Philadelphia is in 78 00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: a skybox and private. So it sounded but I just 79 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: still was nervous, like it's not it's still going to 80 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 1: be just sixty thousand people trying to get into a stadium, 81 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: and what's that going to be like? So what happened 82 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: was I had had Britain's sleepover, her weekend sleepover, and 83 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: then the following weekend I let her for her birthday 84 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 1: present take one friend to Taylor Swift. So I got 85 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: us a hotel room and as it came close, so 86 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm doing I'm doing this now. Last weekend 87 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 1: I did an eight person sleepover, which seemed like one thing, 88 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: and then it was more exhausting than I thought. And 89 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: then the next weekend, I'm going to go drive on 90 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: a Friday to Philadelphia and sleep in a hotel and 91 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: all this okay. So what I did was I wasn't 92 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 1: feeling well at all, so I was having such anxiety 93 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: that I had to go. Brim was so looking forward 94 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,359 Speaker 1: to it. She learned the whole album and got more 95 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: and more excited. I'm glad that I accepted the tickets 96 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: and now it was time for us to go. So 97 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: Friday we drove, she got out of school a little early. 98 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: We drove with her friend. We got chili steak, cheese 99 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: steak except Pats and Gino's, and then We went to 100 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: the concert and we were like fifteen minutes late, which 101 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: I was running through sweating, and it ended up being fine. 102 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: It didn't really miss much. And we went up to 103 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: this really nice suite with all this food and really 104 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 1: nice people, and like we weren't in the middle of 105 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: this pit. We were kind of looking at it, but 106 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,679 Speaker 1: like seeing her, and it was perfect and I really 107 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 1: gained a lot of respect for her as a performer. 108 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: It was hours. It was three hours. She was on time. 109 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: I've never seen a performer on time. She was totally 110 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: exactly on time. I said to Britain, will be fifteen 111 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: minutes late. This has never been a performer that's not 112 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: been late. Well, Taylor Swifter has not been late. Taylor 113 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: Swift has not been late. She was at eight on 114 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: the button and so many costume changes. I can't count, 115 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: so many set changes. I can't count three hours. I 116 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: kept saying, I don't know how she does it for 117 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 1: one night. I couldn't do it for three nights. I 118 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: don't know how she does it for three nights. I 119 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: don't know how she does it for one night. I 120 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: would be so activated, I wouldn't sleep for a month. 121 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: It would be so unhealthy. God bless and it was 122 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 1: a really nice experience, and she seems like a good girl, 123 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: role model. People are obsessed. I had no idea, like 124 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: I'm not a quote unquote real fan. She gained a fan, 125 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: for sure, but I was shocked. But I will tell 126 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: you that I recorded a lot of it and I 127 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: posted about it, and I try to share it, like 128 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: really post not just what I look like, but like 129 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: what the set looks like and what she looked like. 130 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: Because I gather a lot of people can't go, and 131 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: people were messaging me in the nicest way saying, you know, 132 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: we didn't get to go, I can't afford to go. 133 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: I started to feel tremendous guilt and it was late. 134 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: It was one in the morning, and I texted Paul 135 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: to say to send him some of the messages I 136 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: was getting, and I said, you know, And the first 137 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: thing I said to Brim when we were leaving the 138 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: concert was you don't need to go again, like you 139 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: did it. You did it once, and she was like right, 140 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: And I said, we really should be giving the tickets. 141 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: These extra tickets have to someone in need. Because I 142 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: was going to go in Boston with Brnn and now 143 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: I know there are leftover tickets because we decided not 144 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,679 Speaker 1: to go, and I'm like, who, and Paul's totally agreed, 145 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: and we are now I believe we have found a 146 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: mother and a daughter that we will send in a 147 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: car and get a hotel and send to this concert 148 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: to give them what's a once in a lifetime experience. 149 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 1: And it made me realize another thing, which is that 150 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: this has become an elitist sport, because if I think 151 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 1: about it, it was, you know, it seemed to be 152 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: well to do people at the concert who can afford it, 153 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: Because people that I know that work in stores and 154 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: our upper middle class cannot afford to go. They say 155 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: it's like a thousand dollars. They can't spend a thousand 156 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 1: dollars on a tailor Swift ticket. And I'm reading these 157 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 1: messages from these moms and I'm now hearing that twenty 158 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: thousand people were in the parking lot. I did see 159 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: a lot of people around my hotel, realizing that they 160 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: just wanted to get a taste of the concert. And 161 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: I realized that those are the workhorses of Taylor swift 162 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: fan base, are the ones who got her where she 163 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 1: is today. So it's not fair that the people that 164 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: got her where she is today don't get to go 165 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: to the concert. Why did I get to go and 166 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: those people don't get to go. That's not really fair. 167 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: And I know that a lot of life isn't fair, 168 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 1: but that's really really not fair. And then I thought 169 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: about then people were telling me that the tickets get 170 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: resold by resellers, not unlike bags and watches, which is 171 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,839 Speaker 1: definitely an elitist sport. But in that model, the retailer 172 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: controls who gets the watches, so a person can buy 173 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 1: a wife and it's not marked up five times a 174 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: Rolex or a p Tech. And it occurred to me 175 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: that the that the retailer of the tickets needs to 176 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: control this, and I thought there should be a model 177 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: where buy one ticket and it's overpriced, I'll pay double 178 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: what it says buy a ticket, and a free ticket 179 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: goes to someone who really, really and yes, could need 180 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 1: a ticket. Music is healing and getting to have an 181 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 1: experience is healing. So I think that they should change 182 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: the model for how this is done, because it cannot 183 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: just be an elitist sport to go to a concert. 184 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: So I had an amazing time and it was a 185 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: beautiful experience and it was amazing on Mother's Day weekend 186 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: with Brann and we connected. I was so happy to 187 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,079 Speaker 1: see her have the best night of her life and 188 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: it was beautiful and I was happy for her friend. 189 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: So the model has to change, so I'm glad and 190 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift tests to also be accountable for the right 191 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: people coming to her concerts. So you know, Billy Joel 192 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: no longer lets the front row be ticket buyers. He 193 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 1: now makes it that he takes the people from the 194 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: very top and brings him to the bottom. So whatever 195 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: the model is, that's not too bulky. I like, buy 196 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: a ticket, give a ticket, charge more, buy the ticket 197 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: so she could still make her money and sell and 198 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: give a ticket. So I don't know what the face 199 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: value is. I think summer five hundred at that point, 200 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: make it a thousand and give a ticket. They're marking 201 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: it up anyway, and the rich can afford it if 202 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: they can afford it. If they could award five hundred, 203 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 1: they could afford a thousand. So you know, make it hardcore, 204 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: make it hardcore where it would leave a mark on 205 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: me to buy whatever that expensive marked up ticket is. 206 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 1: But I have to pay five thousand a night. Okay, 207 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,839 Speaker 1: is it really worth it? Okay, decide, But somebody else 208 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:17,559 Speaker 1: get a free ticket, then you're basically and maybe maybe 209 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: part of the ticket is a write off, because if 210 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: it's going to a charity or something, there's a cancer 211 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: charity or you know, or an underprivileged kids, inner city charity, 212 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: what is it. I don't know, but listen, I could 213 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 1: figure it out. I could figure it out so that 214 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: I think is a model. That's a model, and in 215 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: that case, you know what i'd get, be strong involved. Fine, fine, 216 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,719 Speaker 1: let us handle. Let us figure out who buys all 217 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: the tickets, because we could sell a lot of tickets 218 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: and we'll figure out who the other ticket goes to. 219 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,559 Speaker 1: That is fine, no problem. I'll talk to my partner. 220 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 1: All I know is something's broken. That's all I know.
