00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 4: an ambush, and not only is there Va Via Kong

160
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 4: and everybody around that you're trying to fight, you got

161
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:59,439
Speaker 4: the natural elements of snakes and tigers and bears.

162
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 5: I think it was a Viacom snake. Yeah.

163
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 6: And then I uh, after I was there for about

164
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 6: a week, we were ambush and and I threw a

165
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 6: hand grenade and it didn't quite go as far as

166
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 6: I hoped it would. And but it did land on

167
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 6: the other side of a rice patty tight so the

168
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,840
Speaker 6: explosion went away from us, but it scared the ship

169
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 6: out of the guys next door around me.

170
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,319
Speaker 5: And then one guy goes, just fucking throw that, and

171
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 5: I said yeah.

Speaker 4: That's kind of where I led you down that road

228
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 4: and you just delivered it to me like a punchline.

229
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 4: I just want to say, welcome home from Vietnam. And

230
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 4: you know, my father served in Vietnam. He was in

231
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 4: there in sixty eight sixty nine in the Navy, who

232
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 4: then became a Green Beret for the rest of his

233
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 4: career in the twenty three years that he did the military.

234
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 4: And you know, I'm a seventies child. I was born

235
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 4: in seventy seven, so you know, the war was just

236
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 4: winding down in the seventies. There were still POW's, you know,

237
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 4: in the seventies eighties that were still trying to be

238
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 4: you know, searched. I remember my dad was reached out

239
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 4: by some of his guys like hey, Jack, do you

240
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 4: want to go do some you know, these guys, they

241
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 4: just get together and they want to go look for

242
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 4: their friends, and you know, it's just a crazy it's

243
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,319
Speaker 4: just crazy how that all went down. And so thanks

244
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 4: for volunteering, raising your hand to go to a foreign land.

245
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 4: My father in law, my dad. Okay, so let me

246
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 4: just really step back. My father in law is a

247
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 4: marine also in Vietnam, still alive. He's eighty three today.

248
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 4: Elliott Frayner, what's up? Thanks Elliott. My dad, green Beret,

249
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 4: always made fun of Elliott because Elliott knew how to

250
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 4: type on a typewriter. So my dad, being an army guy,

251
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 4: always said, oh, he's a Remington raider. Okay, he could

252
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 4: type real good because not everybody knew how to use

253
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 4: a typewriter. So Elliott's mission was tech in Vietnam, but

254
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 4: he was in Vietnam. So I just want to say,

255
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 4: you know, it wasn't that long ago that Vietnam went down.

256
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 4: You know, we're just you know, I mean we're talking

257
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 4: with you about it right now, right, and so it's

258
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 4: very real it happened. There's still you know, traps and

259
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 4: pungee sticks and minds all over that countryside that have

260
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 4: not been discovered yet until like young kids go out

261
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 4: and play in the jungle in their backyard, that's their backyard,

262
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 4: and they step on something and you know, something left

263
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 4: behind from the war that seems to still be ongoing

264
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 4: every time young man gets hurt or girl gets wounded

265
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 4: by these leftover you know, minds and such. And now

266
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 4: only that you have the soldiers like yourself who come

267
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 4: home from seeing you know, whether it's a snake in

268
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 4: your bed or it's your friend not making it home.

269
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 4: And then you have to compartmentalize that and move on

270
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 4: with yourself and say, I'm going to do this for Billy.

271
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 4: I'm gonna do this for Bobby or jan you know,

272
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 4: the folks that you may have lost. And you know,

273
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 4: here we are today and you have an organization where

274
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 4: you do have the means to do something. You do

275
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 4: have the ability to try to say, hey, you know,

276
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 4: what what can I do? I'm a steward of this life.

277
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 4: How can I be better at it? And so you've

278
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 4: created your foundation to help military personnel out there. Tell

279
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 4: us more about this, veterans, tell us more about your philanthropy.

280
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 7: Please, Well, what what what we do is we we

281
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 7: help a number of veterans organizations, but primarily we fund

282
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 7: the Simplify Fund.

283
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 6: It's called the Fund. And what they do is they

284
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 6: help injured military of all branches. When I first started

285
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 6: with them, it was just a Marine Corps, but that's

286
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 6: all branches. And when somebody gets hurt, and usually usually

287
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 6: the injuries somebody will have in combat, you know, can

288
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 6: be horrific. You know, a young guy that los his

289
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 6: limbs and you know, his.

290
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 5: Face or something like that.

291
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 6: It's just just you know, you and I have no

292
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 6: idea what that could be like. But they they have

293
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 6: learned that if they get their family to them and

294
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 6: his friends or her friends and you know, and and

295
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 6: and others that are in her life and get get

296
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 6: them to them, and they talk to this guy like

297
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 6: he's still part of the part of the life, that

298
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 6: that he's going to turn around, you know, like you know,

299
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 6: his buddies said, like, you know, when you're gonna get

300
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 6: off your ass and get back in the bushbow, you know,

301
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 6: and and and and stuff like that, you know, and

302
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 6: and and it makes a huge difference. And then for

303
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 6: the for the guys that that can't you know, continue

304
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 6: their service, they they they're taking them, uh, provide them

305
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 6: with living accommodations that are handicap accessible.

306
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 5: And you know, and you know.

307
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 6: Maybe a job and stuff that is going to go.

308
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 6: You know, it's going to not forget them.

309
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 5: You know.

310
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 6: What typically happens is somebody returns from combat, you know,

311
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 6: be they hurt or they're not, and it's all this

312
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 6: welcome home and hurrah and then and then nothing. Yeah,

313
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 6: so there see that that doesn't happen.

314
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:03,479

00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:08,880
Speaker 3: I'm home from the war.

318
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 4: But it's like now I have to get back to work,

319
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 4: and what if I can't do the same things I

320
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 4: was doing before, And maybe your wife or your spouse

321
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 4: is taking on a lot of roles in the home

322
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 4: to include working outside the home, taking care of the family,

323
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 4: and then you feel like, you know, I can only

324
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 4: imagine some of these guys that come home from serious

325
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 4: combat that they feel just a little bit like like

326
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 4: what am I good for?

327
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 3: You know?

328
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,400
Speaker 4: And we have all these folks out there that keep

329
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 4: talking about, you know, veterans coming home with depression and

330
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,880
Speaker 4: you know, mental anguish, and they call it post traumatic

331
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 4: stress disorder where they're constantly, you know, waking up yelling

332
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,399
Speaker 4: at their wife's in their bed, or the wife is

333
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 4: yelling at the husband in the bed, or just you know,

334
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 4: I don't know how my dad did it. You know,

335
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,679
Speaker 4: my dad seemed to have really compartmentalized all of it.

336
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 4: You know, I grew up in a pretty good home.

337
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 4: He was Navy and the Vietnam seventeen and then he

338
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 4: was a Green Beret, and I just never saw that

339
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 4: side of that, you know where you know where I

340
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 4: had a pow from Vietnam coming to my high school

341
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 4: when I was younger, and he was like he brought

342
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 4: his uniform that they made him where he still kept that,

343
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 4: the stripes.

344
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 3: And all that kind of thing.

345
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 4: And he was talking and he went to a local

346
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 4: amusement park in Salt Lake City where I'm at right now.

347
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 4: It's called Lagoon, and like the Beach Boys played there

348
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:26,919
Speaker 4: and it's a very popular place. And so he was

349
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 4: walking around and they had a game where it was like,

350
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 4: you know, you probably shot the gun at the balloon

351
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 4: and popped the balloon and whatnot. And he was talking

352
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 4: about just hearing that shot hit the balloon made him

353
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 4: jump over the bushes at the lagoon amusement park, and

354
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 4: he just his friends were like, what's wrong with you? Like,

355
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 4: what's wrong with you? And he was telling us the

356
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 4: story when he had come to our class. You know,

357
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 4: I was seventeen. I'm forty eight now, so just about

358
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 4: you know, thirty years ago that I remember that specific

359
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 4: dude coming into my class and talking about the simple

360
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:05,959
Speaker 4: things that just trigger his issues, like being in an

361
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,399
Speaker 4: amusement park and just hearing a big spack, you know,

362
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 4: a big pop a bang, you know, very fragile, you know.

363
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 4: And so I'm glad that you became super successful. You

364
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,840

00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 4: three billion dollars. I don't even know that number. That's

366
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 4: a cool number, man, That's like I played Monopoly and

367
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 4: I love that game, and so you got some cool

368

Speaker 3: Correct.

377
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 6: Well, man, man, what we did is is we pledge

378
00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 6: that we'd give half of whatever we had uh charity

379
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:07,479
Speaker 6: afterwards that and you know it, you know, I had

380
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:12,440
Speaker 6: always I always planned that I give everything to charity.

381
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,880
Speaker 6: But you know, you know, we'll see what happens.

382
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a very honorable. I just want to let

383
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 4: you know that. My wife would say, you have green flags.

384
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 6: Now, you know, you know, right, I came home with

385
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:37,919
Speaker 6: PTSD pretty significant, and and you know, at first I

386
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 6: knew something was wrong. I knew I wasn't the same,

387
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 6: you know, you know, I never had a temper like

388
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 6: that before. I was a little more social than it

389
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,400
Speaker 6: was when I come home. And as the time moved

390
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 6: on moved on, I got worse and I got worse,

391
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:02,479
Speaker 6: and I got worse, and I had I was married twice,

392
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 6: wonderful women. Both of them hung in with me as

393
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 6: long as they could. Then they cut me from the

394
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 6: dam and and then I got married to my third wife,

395
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 6: and she hooked me up with psychedelic therapy. Nice people

396
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,199
Speaker 6: were doing that, and I did that, and you know,

397
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 6: and I took I washed them. I did magic mushrooms.

398
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 4: Psilocyon and and LST artist is over over four days

399
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 4: and after.

400
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 5: I was done, I was a different guy. I was

401
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 5: like I was before the war.

402
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, can we just say, hang on just to that

403
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 3: for just a second.

404
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 4: You said four days and you mentioned four things. You

405
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 4: said LSDON one time I put the day off.

406
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 3: I was gonna say that had to be after the LSD.

407
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,479
Speaker 5: Maybe, yeah, well yeah it was.

408
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 3: Yeah.

409
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,880
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, because mushrooms, you could probably get

410
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 4: a taper down.

411
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 6: But anyhow, I mean I didn't take any significant doses.

412
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,919
Speaker 6: I took some stuff that rocked me. I mean, you know,

413
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:20,159
Speaker 6: tears and all kinds of stuff. You know, you know,

414
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:22,439
Speaker 6: I'll tell you a true story, and I swear to

415
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 6: God this is true. He made he made these tea

416
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 6: bags right out of uh I mean, magic mushrooms, right

417
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 6: made his tea and a teapot he said, held three

418
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 6: three cups, he said, but I made it really strong,

419
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 6: so you're only going to need a cup. Well I drank.

420
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 6: I drank the whole teapot, all three cups, and I

421
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 6: ate the tea bags.

422
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 5: And I'll tell you what, brother, I see God.

423
00:22:55,119 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, man, holy wow.

424
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 5: Yeah.

425
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 6: And so you said he'd never see anybody do that much.

426
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:11,639
Speaker 6: But after I was done, people said, man, I you

427
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:13,920
Speaker 6: know what have the Bob. This guy's so different. This

Speaker 6: guy's nice, says nice things, he smiles, he lives, you know,

429
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,399
Speaker 6: on and on. You know, it had been when I

430
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 6: did that, it had been forty nine years since the

431
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,399
Speaker 6: war and I finally came home.

432
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 3: That brought you full circle there, Yeah, did That's cool?

433
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 4: And so I have had guests on the show, like

434
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 4: former Navy seals and the like that bring veterans to

435
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 4: their like places in not in the US, but it's

436
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 4: like maybe in Chile where they do these ayahuasca.

437
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they take they take two weeks.

438
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 4: They want to get you, you know, and they're acclimated

439
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 4: for like two weeks with them, and then finally it

440
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 4: comes time to do it, and you're in a you know,

441
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 4: a ceremonial environment to try to attack those those things

442
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 4: that are going on inside of you, you know. And

443
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,439
Speaker 4: it's cool to hear from you first hand experience that

444
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 4: it brought you full circle to like, hey, I came

445
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 4: home from that, and now I'm smiling more, you're more social,

446
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 4: You're like your mind was open, because I believe LSD

447
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,159
Speaker 4: when you take it, it kind of like swells your

448
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:22,719
Speaker 4: brain up, like if this is your brain, right, here

449
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 4: my two fists. I'm holding my fist together. One of

450
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 4: them kind of gets a little larger, and it kind

451
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 4: of like kind of works inside your head. But everything

452
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 4: that you see on LSD and on mushrooms is in

453
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 4: your head already, So like, yeah, it's all there, it's

454
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 4: already there. You're already it's in your head. You're just

455
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:44,360
Speaker 4: activating these neurons and these receptors full bore bro.

456
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:49,040
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, well you know, all I know is it

457
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 5: was spinning.

458
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 6: Maybe it was like somebody put a milkshake mixer inside.

459
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 5: And blended it up.

460
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 6: But the one thing I'll tell you, I'm still working

461
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 6: will not getting cut from the team.

467
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 6: moment you think that's the case, there's a white tag

00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 6: in your locker.

469

519
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,360
Speaker 4: in this day and age. You just have to keep

520
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 4: your head down, move in your lane that you know

521
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 4: so well because as a business owner myself, I'm a

522
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 4: mom and pop you know, business owner here in Utah,

523
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 4: and I do war games, so I bring people that

524
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 4: you know from kids that have asthma, kids who can

525
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 4: never join the military. They come to my environment, and

526
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 4: then the guys and gals who have been in the

527
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 4: military also come to my environment, and now I get

528
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 4: to bring those two guys together. So I have a

529
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 4: kid who never got to rub shoulders with anyone in

530
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,080
Speaker 4: the military, but now he is an airsoft war game.

531
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 4: So we go out to the desert. I have like

532
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,360
Speaker 4: five hundred acres that's been stewarded to me, and it's

533
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 4: got bunkers and sandbags and you know, Earth style trenches

534
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 4: and warfare that we do out there in a sport.

535
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 4: Just like golf, it's to us, it's our own golf.

536
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,159
Speaker 4: We have our own uniform. Just like on golf, you

537
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,160
Speaker 4: have your own knickers on golf, you got your own

538
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,199
Speaker 4: you know, you know, clothing for golf. We have our

539
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 4: own gear for golf. Military airsoft, military gear. You know,

540
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 4: it all just replicates it. In fact, I drive a

541
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 4: tank out to the games. I pull it on a

542
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,680
Speaker 4: trailer and the kids get to fight around a tank

543
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 4: and have a good time. And otherwise they would never

544
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 4: get that chance to join the military because they had asthma.

545
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 4: It's not the kid's fault, you know, It's just like, hey,

546
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 4: they can't join. You're premature at birth, you can't get in.

547
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 3: Well, they come to us.

548
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,480

558
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 4: disease going on right now with because of the Internet

559
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 4: and because of anti social environments where they're just kind

560
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 4: of stuck on their phones and they're not going out

561
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 4: and you know they're not asking you know, the Betty

562
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 4: to go to a dance anymore. You know, that's like

563
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,560

618
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 6: you know, I got a little homesick. But then then

00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 6: then I wasn't you know, see I had an advantage.

620
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 6: And what my advantage was is my parents. You know,

621
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 6: they they never physically abused me, but they mostly weren't there,

622
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 6: you know, So I kind of raised myself.

623
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 5: And and being and and parasitan and the man I

Speaker 4: like to focus on computer science in the Marine Corps.

646
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 4: What jobs are available in computer science? You know, and

Speaker 4: to do to get that job, and then you can

650
00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:00,240
Speaker 4: come out with a skill of computer science through the

651
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 4: Marine Corps.

652
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, Marine Corps might hope you will computer science.

00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 3: Air Force.

654
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:13,399
Speaker 6: One didn't send too many computer science majors. O, don't

655
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 6: on ambush.

656
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:20,439
Speaker 5: I can tell you a lot.

657
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,280
Speaker 3: I changed myself to Air Force, Space Force.

658
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 6: I changed maybe, yeah, Marine Corps, Marine Corps, if you

659
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 6: want to, if you want to mix it up.

660
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 4: That's where you go right kill raw. You know what

661
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 4: I'm saying. It's like, that's that's what you're there for.

662
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 4: You're there to fix bayonets and get that job done.

663
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:44,719
Speaker 4: But today's military has a lot of you know now

664
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 4: like drone capabilities going on, and you know, yea.

665
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,279
Speaker 6: All that stuff and and and you know, I don't

666
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 6: want to sell the Marine Corps short because you know,

667
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 6: they have a lot to offer that is outside of combat. Yes,

668
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 6: And what what they have is they have difficulty getting

669
00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 6: young guys that want to them, see kids that got

670
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 6: their heart set of one seeing combat, you know, except.

671
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:11,319
Speaker 5: Something that is different than that.

672
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 6: But you see, you know my experience has been is

673
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 6: the average young guy wants combat until he gets it,

674
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:23,839
Speaker 6: then they don't want any more.

675
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:28,839
Speaker 3: That's just wise words.

676
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:34,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's that's absolute truth. Yeah, because I'll tell you what.

677
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 6: There's no music. No, no, there's not no music, and

678
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:42,879
Speaker 6: Mommy's not there knowing.

679
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 3: Once all the shooting stops, everything just goes back to quiet.

680
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:49,240
Speaker 5: Sam. Yeah, so hard.

Speaker 6: Learned that to do things that I liked, and that's

691
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 6: that's how that's how I made my money. My father

692
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 6: always told me, he said, you know, if you love

693
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:29,360
Speaker 6: what you're doing, it'll tell you all his secrets. He

694
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 6: always told me that was a wise man. You know,

695
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 6: he's just you know, he's just a little lost. But

696
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 6: you know, I loved the pieces he.

697
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 5: Served the Wattle Canal by the way, oh wow.

698
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:40,399
Speaker 4: Yeah.

699
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,360
Speaker 6: And he was there with the seabees with the Marines

700
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:48,360
Speaker 6: building airstrip when when the when the fleet pulled away

701
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 6: and left him there there, left them there to take

702
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,360
Speaker 6: care of the Japanese that were put there to remove

703
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 6: him from the island.

704
00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 5: So he so he did all that stuff. So but

705
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 5: you know, so.

706
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 6: I'm sure he had PTS PTS. Yeah, yeah, So.

707
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 3: You know, that was a different time, bro.

708
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 4: That was like when you know, the wives took over

709
00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 4: the jobs and the guys went off to war and uh,

710
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:20,000
Speaker 4: and then they came home and you know it's like, oh, uh,

711
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:21,919
Speaker 4: you know, we need to lay off all the women

712
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:23,360
Speaker 4: and let the guys go back to work. But the

713
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 4: guys were having a hard time. There was no definition

714
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 4: of post traumatic stress disorder so much. There was no

715
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 4: you know, real defined issue with oh, you's got to

716
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 4: be a man and suck it up.

717
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, that's true.

718
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 6: And then to jump back what what what I always

719
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 6: did was I did what I liked. You know, I

720
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:45,719
Speaker 6: liked the programming micro computers. I taught myself to do that.

721
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 6: And I started my first business by selling software that

722
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 6: I wrote, accounting software. And you know, I had forty

723
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,480
Speaker 6: thousand invested in that business, and I sold the business

724
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 6: for sixty four million. And then and then I you know,

725
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 6: moved over started what became GoDaddy in Arizona.

726
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:16,280
Speaker 5: And I come, I'll come my whiskers with him going broke.

727
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 6: And I when I started it, I had thirty six

728
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:22,160
Speaker 6: million in my money.

729
00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 5: My wife had a little more than that my then wife.

730
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,280
Speaker 6: And then I got cut for the team and moved

731
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:34,360
Speaker 6: to Arizona. And so as I started started Go Daddy,

732
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 6: and I got down to six million, and I decided

733
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 6: that right then that you know what, I met this

734
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 6: guy that was parking cars, throwing his keys in the air.

735
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 5: He's so happy.

736
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 3: I was.

737
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 5: Just as I was in Hawaii at the Four Seasons Resort.

738
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,960
Speaker 6: I went there to decide how to shut my business

739
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:59,040
Speaker 6: down because it wasn't Joe and they Go Daddy wasn't

740
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,880
Speaker 6: And so this guy was so happy, and I said,

741
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:06,280
Speaker 6: and what's wrong with this picture? This guy is so happy,

742
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 6: he's tossing his coin keys. He's got probably nothing. I

743
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:14,719
Speaker 6: got six million, and I'm miserable. So I decided that

744
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 6: in there to go back home and just keep working.

745
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,759
Speaker 6: Wish I tell you I did anything different, and you know,

746
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:23,880
Speaker 6: and if it went broke, I'd go broke with it.

747
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 6: And the worst I do part cards the smartest thing

748
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:27,959
Speaker 6: I ever did.

749
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 5: I didn't do anything different. But what happened was that

750
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 5: dot com crash happened.

751
00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,719
Speaker 6: And when the crash happened, I had one or two

752
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,719
Speaker 6: companies I was doing business with every week went out

753
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:39,320
Speaker 6: of business.

754
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 5: And I took my.

755
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 6: Well, I just took and I said, I was one

756
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 6: of the few guys paying my bills I had took

757
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,400
Speaker 6: in these you know, the companies that wouldn't sell me

758
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,800
Speaker 6: advertising at any price were.

759
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 5: Lined up to give it to me. I had more

760
00:39:58,760 --> 00:39:59,919
Speaker 5: friends than I thought I had.

761
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 6: So that was in feb March, and then in October

762
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:09,280
Speaker 6: I turned a corner, become profitable for the first time,

763
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,360
Speaker 6: made a couple of billion dollars.

764
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:17,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's crazy, that's great, and that's a success story. Bro,

765
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:22,399
Speaker 4: that's like from you know literally you well, you learned code, right.

766
00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,959
Speaker 4: It reminds me of the CEO of Panda Express who said,

767
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:29,239
Speaker 4: you know, I'm not really a business owner, but I'm

768
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,280
Speaker 4: an engineer, so let me engineer my business.

769
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:34,200
Speaker 3: And so she wound up using in.

770
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 4: The seventies, like late seventies, like computer software that allowed

771
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 4: her to see like what was selling the most and

772
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,400
Speaker 4: what was selling the least, right, and.

773
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 5: These difference since I was selling software.

774
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:45,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly.

775
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 6: And then what I did with GoDaddy, I started selling

776
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 6: domain names inexpensively, and I was one of the few

777
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 6: companies that had prices that closed, and I had enough

778
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 6: money to keep paying my bill. And then you know,

779
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 6: I got noticed because I was able to buy advertising,

780
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,840
Speaker 6: and the company took off. When I sold the company,

783
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:20,240
Speaker 5: Share in anything. Yeah, and I'll say it's unusual.

784
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,400
Speaker 3: To find unless it's our military.

785
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, well they have they got an inside track then.

794
00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 6: to retirment, mostly because I like what I'm doing.

795
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I don't think that retiring is a word

796
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 4: that is in that diction, in the vocabulary of someone

797
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 4: who loves to do what they're doing.

798
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:10,200

800
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:14,080
Speaker 4: Rich, and I'm like, well, if being able to go

801

Speaker 4: to my family and see them or take a day

802
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 4: off and maybe go to the mountains is being rich,

803
00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:20,800

804
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,200
Speaker 4: time with my family, you know, that's really how I

805
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,000
Speaker 4: find that, right, some.

806
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 6: People, what I learned, right is being rich is being

00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:30,640
Speaker 6: happy and doing what you.

808
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:31,120

Speaker 6: what he was right.

818
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,399
Speaker 5: He was right. And if you think about it.

819
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 6: You're wanting to work harder, You're willing to work longer,

820
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:57,080
Speaker 6: You're willing to work you know not. You know, pretty

821
00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:59,840
Speaker 6: clean is dirty. You know the Marine Corps taught me

822
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:03,880
Speaker 6: to You're just not just a nuances that that you

823
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 6: know that a lot of people have. You know, if

824
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:09,880
Speaker 6: you are working just to make a buck, you won't

825
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:13,480
Speaker 6: work as hard as somebody that wants to just create

826
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:15,840
Speaker 6: enthusiasm and make a difference.

827
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:24,440
Speaker 3: I love that. It's totally right, and and that is true.

828
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 3: You know.

829
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,360
Speaker 4: So if you're really passionate about what you love, and

830
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 4: you know you're out there thinking to yourself, I have

831
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 4: a passion and I love to do this, you should

832
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:34,800
Speaker 4: just exploit that because you're really.

833
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 3: Good at that. You love to do it.

834
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:37,960
Speaker 4: And even if someone says, oh, your idea is not

835
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,359
Speaker 4: going to be successful, but you still feel it deep

836
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:42,879
Speaker 4: down inside, you should just probably move forward with that.

837
00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 4: And and and a note that I'm taking right now,

838
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 4: let me do the whole dab on my tongue with

839
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 4: my pencil. Okay, is start to code. Start coding.

840
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:58,520
Speaker 5: You better get ready to push them long hours.

841
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:00,319
Speaker 2: You know.

842
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:03,320
Speaker 6: You know, when I got my first business off the ground,

843
00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:07,760
Speaker 6: this is no kid, I was working sixty hour shifts.

844
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 6: I'd go to work on a Monday, Let's say I'd

845
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:16,920
Speaker 6: work around the clock till eight o'clock Tuesday morning, around

846
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:21,400
Speaker 6: the clock till eight o'clock Wednesday morning, and then to

847
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:26,880
Speaker 6: eight o'clock at night Wednesday night. And then I wouldn't

848
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 6: know it was time to stop when I started hallucinating

849
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 6: and hearing shit that wasn't there. Then I'd go home,

850
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:39,200
Speaker 6: I'd shower, I'd shower, I'd crawl in the bed.

851
00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 5: And I'd.

852
00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 6: Get up the next day after about eight hours or so,

853
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:50,239
Speaker 6: and would take a quick little running around the high

854
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:54,279
Speaker 6: school track, which would help me solve problems. And then

855
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 6: I'd come back and shower again, and then I'd go

856
00:44:58,160 --> 00:44:59,839
Speaker 6: to work and work another sixty hours.

857
00:44:59,880 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 5: Now, had I not done that, I'd have never made.

858
00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:08,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, that commitment, that drive, and that you know, I

859
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:12,480
Speaker 4: mean I can, I can actually relate with the hallucinating because,

860
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 4: you know, getting my business off the ground, you know,

861
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 4: I started an indoor shoot house for war games where

862
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 4: you know, you can come in and play and go

863
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,320
Speaker 4: around all the corners. It took a lot of effort,

864
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 4: and we were in there all the time getting this

865
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:25,160
Speaker 4: building up.

866
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:27,399
Speaker 3: To snuff so that it was good to.

867
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 4: Go for what we wanted and working and busting tile

868
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,720
Speaker 4: and trying to rip tile off the floor. And it's

869
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:34,880
Speaker 4: just me and this ten thousand square foot warehouse, and

870
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 4: I'm just like, who's singing in here? Is there a

871
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:41,040
Speaker 4: little girl singing somewhere? And I heard this little girl

872
00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 4: singing in my warehouse? And I'm investigating it, like I'm

873
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 4: the only one here at Sunday morning. It's nine am.

874
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 4: There's no church, there's no one around, and and and

875
00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 4: then I went home and I just showered it off,

876
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:53,360
Speaker 4: like you said.

877
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 3: I came back to work after the next day, and I.

878
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:59,360
Speaker 4: Just kind of opened the door expecting to like, like,

879
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:03,279
Speaker 4: hear this little girl singing in my warehouse somewhere. You know, now,

880
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:06,680
Speaker 4: you're granted, my warehouse is nineteen forty four, so it's

881
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:10,399
Speaker 4: very nostalgic. It's outside Hill Air Force Base where they

882
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,719
Speaker 4: prepped for the Doolittle raid, and you know, the whole

883

884
00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:20,080
Speaker 4: I don't know, man, I just had that hallucination just

00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,279
Speaker 4: kind of you know, when you're grinding and just in

Speaker 4: don't ever search for a dot com until you log in, Okay,

938
00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 4: always log in first, because then if it shows up,

939
00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:07,759
Speaker 4: you can just get it.

940
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:08,640
Speaker 3: You know, you don't want to.

941
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,160
Speaker 4: He always had this fear that if he typed in

942
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:13,040
Speaker 4: a dot com in the search part to see if

943
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 4: it was available, that it would be like, oh, someone

944
00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:18,560
Speaker 4: thought of this, We're gonna now own it, and he

945
00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 4: would be able to get it. He had this like paranoia.

946
00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:22,960
Speaker 4: So he's like, always log in to go Daddy if

947
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:25,399
Speaker 4: you're going to search for a dot com.

948
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:26,920
Speaker 3: That's what he would tell me, is his advice.

949
00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:31,880
Speaker 6: So one point I will make just so butter news

950
00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:36,520
Speaker 6: is I have been affiliated with go Daddy for five years.
