1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,560
Speaker 1: Jenna. We did this fun thing.

2
00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:04,400
Speaker 2: We were like about done filming, and somehow we got

3
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 2: into this place where now Jah Rule and Jenna are

4
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:09,959
Speaker 2: racing and I had then the go mark was when

5
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:11,360
Speaker 2: I hit the shot, and then they were to race

6
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 2: to the green.

7
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: However, Jenna was legitimately going to physically drive the.

8
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 2: Golf cart onto the green if we did not actually

9
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:20,440
Speaker 2: physically stop her.

10
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,080
Speaker 3: Not because I'm just so competitive, but because I don't

11
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:24,279
Speaker 3: know the rules of golf.

12
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: Ye, I don't know that you can't drive the golf cart.

13
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 2: And yes, so now you know. Now we know not

14
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 2: to drive on the green. We had to protect the green.

15
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 2: The wheels would definitely ruin it. But in hindsight, you

16
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:37,840
Speaker 2: still won.

17
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 1: The race being Jah quit, jock quit.

18
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 2: What is going on, y'all? Welcome back to the party. Now,

19
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 2: this next guest I'm very excited for because she's probably

20
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 2: one of the most talented all around human beings that

21
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 2: I know, especially when it comes to sports and just athleticism.

22
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 2: But before I get into it, you already know the drill.

23
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,040
Speaker 2: I'd like to share a little story about myself or

24
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 2: some words of wisdom for y'all to get to know

25
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 2: me better. And today we're going to talk about how

26
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 2: I grew my platform. So I actually get this question

27
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 2: quite often in the DMS of how I became a

28
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 2: golf influencer, how I grew my following, how I became

29
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 2: a personality in all these things, I didn't wake up

30
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 2: with a platform to be able to use my voice

31
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 2: and all the things that I believe in. I began

32
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 2: ten years ago, twenty fifteen, essentially when I came out

33
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 2: of college and I turned professional simultaneously. I started to

34
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 2: use social media at first just as a means to

35
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 2: expose my golf game and hope so that if just

36
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 2: one person saw my swing, or saw my scores, or

37
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: saw my ability, then maybe I can find one sponsor

38
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 2: that can really help me take on my professional golf career.

39
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 2: Because my parents didn't have the means, but they were

40
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 2: in full emotional support and it was up to me

41
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 2: to make it happen, and so I did, and social

42
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 2: media was one of those ways. Then it came to

43
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 2: a point where social media took over and I was

44
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 2: starting to get more gigs and it outweighed the professional

45
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 2: golf and I started to get injured and blah blah

46
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 2: blah and it was time for me to walk away

47
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 2: from pro golf, and I took on social media more

48
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 2: and took it seriously. That being said, I feel like

49
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 2: a lot of success in people trying to create platforms

50
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 2: come because they actually don't plan for it to happen.

51
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 2: A lot of times it's because of something that happened

52
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 2: out of passion, and then it turned into something real,

53
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 2: because when you work on something that you're passionate about,

54
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 2: you can talk about it endlessly day after day after day.

55
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 2: And that is golf for me. And then come to realize,

56
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 2: now it's become a job, and so now what I

57
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 2: do and what I love are one and the same. Really,

58
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 2: there is no secret. It just comes with consistency. I

59
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 2: have just been consistent and I've posted quite literally for

60
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 2: ten years, three to five or seven days a week

61
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 2: every week for ten years. There's been the occasional I'm

62
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,359
Speaker 2: gonna take a week off, but really, because I love

63
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 2: what I do and I naturally like to share and

64
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 2: I'm a more open person. That's how often I've shared,

65
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 2: and that's just on Instagram. Then then came TikTok. I

66
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 2: jumped on the bandwagon of TikTok. Actually quite early. It

67
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 2: was twenty eighteen, It was very new, and I was

68
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 2: one of the first, if not the first female golfers

69
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 2: on the app, which is why I've garnered the million

70
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,519
Speaker 2: of followers that I have. I'm a short form girly,

71
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 2: but if I could change one thing, I would have

72
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 2: switched my platform from Instagram to YouTube, because there is

73
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: a lot more value in YouTube, especially ten years ago.

74
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 2: Long form content can easily funnel down into shorter form content,

75
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 2: versus if you're a short form person, you have to

76
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 2: completely create new content for your long form and followers,

77
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 2: for some reason, does not stick in reverse. YouTubers can

78
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: get followers transferred onto their shorter platforms, but people who

79
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 2: are bigger on short form platforms, it's found to be

80
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 2: a lot harder to gain subscribers or more followers on

81
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 2: longer form platforms. So, besides consistency, I think the most

82
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 2: important part is also finding your niche. When you find

83
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 2: your niche, especially one that you're passionate about and you

84
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 2: can talk about NonStop, and you own that niche, you

85
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 2: can then conquer the next pillars beside it that you

86
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 2: want to achieve, and then from there you get to

87
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 2: grow outwardly. As opposed to Oh, I'm gonna grow my

88
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 2: platform and be like a lifestyle person. Well honeing, you're

89
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 2: up against the world. But for me, it was like, oh,

90
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 2: I'm a female golfer and I started, you know, social

91
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 2: media during a time when there wasn't much.

92
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: I stood out.

93
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 2: Of course, I had to go and move with the

94
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 2: ebbs and flows of social media because what was popular

95
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 2: back then and what worked back then doesn't stick now.

96
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 2: So for me, I found it as an opportunity to expand.

97
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 2: So over time, I thought, now, let me show off

98
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 2: that I was a broadcast journalist. Let me show off

99
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 2: my interviewing skills, let me show off me hosting, let

100
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 2: me show off me speaking, Let me show off my

101
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 2: instru because I'm a certified instructor. Let me show off

102
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 2: being a trainer because I was a Fitbit trainer for

103
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 2: so many years, you name it. But I had to

104
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 2: own my niche first before I branched out. And now

105
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 2: I get to talk about women's sports. Now I get

106
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 2: to be an advocate for the LGBTQ plus community. Now

107
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 2: I'm an advocate for the AAPI community. But it all

108
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 2: began because I had one home base. I had one

109
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 2: foundation first, before I built all these different pillars. I

110
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 2: think conquering your niche will really not be a shortcut,

111
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 2: but will be your fastest way to success as opposed

112
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,280
Speaker 2: to taking on such a large niche. And then, as

113
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 2: I already touched on, you have to be okay with change.

114
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 2: Back then, it was just fun trick shots and short

115
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 2: entertaining clips. And then when TikTok came, it was a

116
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 2: bunch of fun dances, which was great for me because

117
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 2: I used to be a dancer, so that was a fun,

118
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 2: quick moment for me. But now what really sticks is

119
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 2: brand storytelling, the behind the scenes, the days in the life,

120
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 2: you know, the raw, raw emotions. So you have to

121
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 2: be okay with sharing things of that nature. But yeah,

122
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 2: I didn't wake up with a platform. Can you still

123
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 2: do it during this day?

124
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,919
Speaker 1: Yeah? Absolutely. You gotta be consistent, you.

125
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 2: Gotta find your niche, you gotta love it and be

126
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 2: passionate about it, and you gotta just roll with the

127
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,239
Speaker 2: punches of social media.

128
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 1: But I promise you it's gonna be worth it.

129
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,919
Speaker 2: And so, without further ado, I'd like to introduce my

130
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 2: next guest, because she's someone who conquers social media like

131
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 2: a beast, and she's so talented. I'm really excited because

132
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 2: she's actually one of the top sports creators in the US.

133
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 2: She earned her chops playing D two basketball in college,

134
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: and though she didn't pursue professional sports, she went on

135
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 2: to hold a Guinness World Record for the farthest behind

136
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 2: the back basketball shop. She's also an avid golf player,

137
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 2: which is basically how I met. In fact, we're both

138
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:44,919
Speaker 2: a part of the People's League, which is a new

139
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 2: creator league in golf that airs on YouTube. In addition

140
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 2: to all of this, she also started an amazing nonprofit

141
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,919
Speaker 2: called Game Change Her, which empowers and supports the growth

142
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 2: of next generation of women leaders and athletes. We talk

143
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 2: all about how she was inspired to start creating sports content,

144
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 2: and how she even got into golf, and what it

145
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 2: means for her to help other women reach their goals.

146
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 1: So, without further ado, Jenna Bandy, Welcome to the par t.

147
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: I know the party. Yeah, very excited to have you.

148
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 2: I feel like every time we've been able to hang

149
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 2: out or get together, like it's just always a good time.

150
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 2: Like you're always just such good vibes, you know.

151
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 4: Just aligned both we get each other. Yes, I do.

Speaker 3: You're good energy. We're kind of in the same we're

153
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 3: in the same world.

154
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: We are, we really are. So we're gonna get into it.

155
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: So we have a fun game.

156
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 2: Okay, So we're gonna we're gonna play two truths in

157
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,360

172
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,480

00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 3: Tom Cruise had a scene where he had to do

174
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 3: all that.

175
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 4: My dad trained him.

176
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,360

178
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 2: I very much appreciate that. I've done a few ads

179
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,160

Speaker 2: I was the you know, fast and the furious girl

192
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 2: like the flags. I was that Asian girl golf ball start.

193
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: I had to start.

194
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 2: That's right, we did that, Okay, but now we're actually

195
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 2: going to get into it. So I know, I know

196
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 2: all about Jenna Bandy and you're come up because we

197
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 2: spent some time together. But we got to start from

198
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 2: the very very tough with those of you who don't

199
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 2: know Jenna. She's like one of the most talented human

200
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 2: beings that I have ever met when it comes to sports,

201
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 2: especially like she picks up a club, she picks up

202
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 2: any kind of ball, whether you kick it, whether you

203
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 2: throw it, she can do it. If she's never done

204
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 2: it before and you told her to do it on

205
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,079
Speaker 2: the spot, she can probably do it. Cricket can probably

206
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 2: do it. And so like, where did this even begin?

207
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 2: You just like love sports growing up?

208
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: Or Yeah.

209
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,439
Speaker 3: I have three other siblings and I have a twin brother,

210
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 3: but my older brother is the one I really pay

211
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:52,199
Speaker 3: homage to when it comes to sports and my competitive spirit.

212
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 3: He's only two years older than me. He played Major

213
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 3: League baseball, and growing up he just never let me win,

214
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 3: would talk trash to me, and and when I couldn't

215
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 3: do things, he would teach me.

216
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 4: Took me under his wing and taught me how to

217
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 4: do things no way.

218
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, every sport football, basketball, baseball, and I loved it.

219
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: So from there, you ended up taking basketball more seriously

220
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 1: than amongst the sports.

221
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 4: You know, it was kind of a debate for me.

222
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 3: I loved softball and basketball, and I was great at both,

223
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 3: and I was getting recruited for both, but I just

224
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 3: liked basketball more so.

225
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 4: I chose to play that in college.

226
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 2: That's crazy and so so you literally had scholarships in

227
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 2: both sports and then you chose basketball.

228
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: And then what school did you play for?

229
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 3: I went to cal State Monterey Bay Division two of

230
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:37,479
Speaker 3: Northern California.

231
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:42,199
Speaker 2: And then what was your experience like playing collegiate basketball?

232
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 3: Man, I think everyone can attest to this. College is

233
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,319
Speaker 3: really where like you find out who you are. Truly,

234
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 3: you're tested a lot before college. My senior year, I

235
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,959
Speaker 3: tore my ACL and that was a tough experience because

236
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 3: I was in Terray County's finest. I'm from here, I'm

237
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 3: from LA Yeah, and I was to go to a

238
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,439
Speaker 3: small D one and that's what I wanted to do.

239
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,559
Speaker 3: But then I tore my a CL went Division two.

240
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 3: I ended up tearing my other ACL my third year.

241
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: Oh my god.

242
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 3: And in college in college, yes, and so to on

243
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 3: both my acls. Mom and dad were kind of like, Johnny,

244
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 3: you should probably start thinking about other things in basketball

245
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 3: in your career after college because I really wanted to

246
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 3: play pro. That was the dream growing up, was to

247
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:26,079
Speaker 3: play professional sports, and I wanted it to be basketball.

248
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 2: And so then after your basketball career and not turning

249
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 2: on pro you were still able to parlay it into

250
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 2: what you do now.

251
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 3: Honestly, I didn't get right into content creation right after

252
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 3: college as a coach. For five years, I coached girls'

253
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 3: basketball and saw the rest of my life as a

254
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 3: teacher and a coach. I was just I posted some

255
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 3: clips I'm playing in this rec league and they went viral,

256
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 3: but I never.

257
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 4: Took it seriously. Honestly, that's crazy.

258
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, we're going to get into the content creation,

259
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 2: but I want to learn a little bit more about

260
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 2: you and your family at any point, whether it was

261
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 2: your brother or your family, did you ever you know,

262
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 2: growing up as an elie athlete, a lot of crazy

263
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 2: athlete stories are their families put a lot of pressure

264
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 2: on them. Did you ever experience that or was that

265
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 2: always just like a fun competitive dynamic.

266
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,839
Speaker 3: No, you know, I'm so thankful that my parents never

267
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 3: pressed me to, you know, get reps in like practice.

268
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 3: It was just something that me and my brother did

269
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 3: all the time. And I would see some of my

270
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 3: teammates and friends with their parents like that, and I

271
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 3: could see why they fell out of love for their sport,

272
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 3: and that just wasn't the case for me. I'm so

273
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 3: happy that that wasn't the issue. You know, so I

274
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 3: heard that.

275
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 2: I mean, I know that your big brother actually says

276
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 2: that you are the best athlete in the family.

277
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: Wow, okay, well what do you agree?

278
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 3: It's crazy? Jet Jet is my bigger brother. And to

279
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 3: my face, he will never say that, Tisha, he will never.

280
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 3: He will call me like you're a bomb, Like you're

281
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 3: my little sister. You're a Jet Bandy's sister. Yeah, that's

282
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 3: what I was known by in high school.

283
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 4: You know.

284
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 3: But like in the article in the paper, when news

285
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 3: people are asking him who's the better athlete, he would

286
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 3: say his little sister Jenna. And maybe one day he'll

287
00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 3: tell me that to my face, I love that.

288
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 1: Okay.

289
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,319
Speaker 2: And so now you're playing a bunch of different sports.

290
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,559
Speaker 2: At what point did you ever swing a golf club?

291
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 3: You know what I want to say, just like at

292
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,200
Speaker 3: top golf. Okay, yeah, that makes sense because I grew

293
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 3: up playing softball. I have a swing like I understand,

294
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 3: like loading and getting my hips through. And then honestly,

295
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 3: I'm a very visual learner. Just watch someone. I don't

296
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,679
Speaker 3: know what if I was doing it right, but I

297
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 3: I know I could smack it and I said, think

298
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 3: till this day, I'm not doing it completely.

299
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:32,679
Speaker 1: Right, like how many years ago you think?

300
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 3: Honestly recently, like in the last years, I've never played

301
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,080
Speaker 3: a full round of golf until.

302
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: Until the league, yes, okay, which we will get into. Okay.

303
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 2: So I have been around golf obviously in my whole life,

304
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 2: and golf is just not a sport that you pick

305
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 2: up and naturally just like pound the ball.

306
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 1: It's not anyone's nature.

307
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,679
Speaker 2: There's not really anyone that I could say that it's

308
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 2: picked up the club in their first couple go rounds

309
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:56,679
Speaker 2: and like.

310
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: Can hit it like one fifty to two hundred yards.

311
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 2: And I remember when I saw your video at a

312
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 2: top golf event that we were both at PGA two K.

313
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: They had a big event and I saw your swinging out.

314
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 2: I was like, what the fuck? I was like the

315
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 2: what just happened? And I think I was just so

316
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 2: taken back because you crushed that. And so it's just

317
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 2: been from top golfing and.

318
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,680
Speaker 3: Then seriously and just someone being like, hey, to trust

319
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 3: try this with your elbow or your leg, and I'm like, okay, yeah, yeah,

320
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 3: I'm very coachable, very I could catch on the things

321
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 3: very quickly. But I will say golf, out of all sports,

322
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 3: is the toughest. I do athlete my way through a

323
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 3: lot of first sports that I try, and golf has

324
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 3: been the hardest. Right now, if I picked up a club,

325
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 3: I don't know if I could hit ten in a

326
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 3: row solid on the.

327
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: Door like that. Okay, yeah, for sure.

328
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 2: I will say that the one thing about golf compared

329
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 2: to other sports is that it really does take a

330
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 2: lot of time. You can crush a few, especially when

331
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 2: you're newer into the game, but it's really about like

332
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 2: how often can you do that?

333
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 1: And that takes time.

334
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 2: And so now that you're more involved with golf, like

335
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 2: I've been seeing a lot of my gigs, which has

336
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 2: been so exciting. I love seeing outside people from golf

337
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 2: come into it because that means it's growing. What has

338
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 2: been your most favorite part about learning of golf and

339
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 2: your least favorite about learning about golf?

340
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 3: Oh? My most favorite part, I would say just the

341
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 3: fact that, like trying something new for me, it's fun

342
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 3: to kind of be a freshman in something again, you

343
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 3: know what I mean. And I'm just super open to

344
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 3: everyone's insight. It is a little bit information overload, but

345
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 3: like Yes. What I think is so exciting is seeing

346
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 3: people like you, Tisha and Troy and all these other

347
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 3: professionals and seeing how you guys could literally place the ball.

348
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 3: I'm just trying to smack it straight, and You're like, oh,

349
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 3: I could fade it, i could hook it at it.

350
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 3: I'm gonna put a little more loft on it, And

351
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 3: I'm like, Wow, the finesse is incredible, and like I

352
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 3: could do that with a basketball or a football. But

353
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 3: it's just honestly amazing to see.

354
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 2: That you have had a taste of, like kind of

355
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 2: being competitive in golf. Do you feel that competitive edge

356
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 2: in all the sports you do, even in golf or

357
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 2: is it just like, Nah, golf is for fun, basketball

358
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 2: is for serious.

359
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 4: No, I definitely feel that competitive edge.

360
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 3: Like being that I'm the least experience in the people's league,

361
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 3: it kind of pisses me off. I'm not used to

362
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 3: being like kind of that below average person anywhere, to

363
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 3: be honest, especially performance wise. So I am determined to

364
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 3: get better. Like I've made the time this week where

365
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 3: I'm going to the driving range. I want to be

366
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 3: able to hang yeah people when I just come I

367
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 3: know I'm not going to be elite, right, but I

368
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 3: want to be able to hang.

369
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean right now on way.

370
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 2: So then would you say that among sports, golf is

371
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 2: the most difficult mentally or do you feel like it's

372
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 2: just as challenging in other sports?

373
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 3: Right now, it is the most difficult for me because

374
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 3: it's something like I said, I can't just athlete my

375
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 3: way through. Sure, I definitely have to put more time

376
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 3: into it. However, I think baseball or softball is a

377
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 3: little bit more of a challenge because you have to

378
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 3: stay positive through the failures. For instance, baseball or softball,

379
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 3: you can fail seven times out of ten and that

380
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 3: is successful because that means you went three for ten

381
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 3: and that's a batting average of three hundred, right, Whereas

382
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 3: in basketball, if I go three for ten.

383
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 4: That's really bad.

384
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:33,400
Speaker 3: So okay, god Yeah, So in baseball you're failing more

385
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,439
Speaker 3: times than you're succeeding, so you have to.

386
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 4: Kind of get used to that, got it.

387
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:40,479
Speaker 3: Baseball is so hard you think about it, ninety mile

388
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 3: an hour fastball coming your way and you have to

389
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 3: read it and place it whatever. So you're failing more

390
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 3: times than you're succeeding. Just for instance, like I remember

391
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 3: dealing with my brother during the time he was in

392
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 3: the bigs, and like he just never wanted to talk

393
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 3: about baseball. It's so mentally taxing to you know, and

394
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 3: when you get in a slump, like it's the hardest

395
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,639
Speaker 3: thing to come out of because you're already in your head,

396
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 3: you're already failing more tight like you know.

397
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 2: So that's interesting. I mean, so in golf, it's actually

398
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 2: very similar. I've never I don't know anything about baseball

399
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 2: spoken with that degree. I just watch it. I eat

400
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 2: a hot dog, it looks dope. I want to dress

401
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 2: cute in my outfit. But like in golf, just like that,

402
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,440
Speaker 2: like you face many more failures than you do success.

403
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 2: Even if you're let's say, if a pro hits it

404
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 2: majority of the time in the fairway on the green,

405
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,880
Speaker 2: they're making their putts to them because they're such high

406
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 2: level players, it can still be a fail if it

407
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 2: wasn't hit solid and in the middle of the fairway.

408
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 2: Do you get what I'm saying, Like, there are different

409
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,679
Speaker 2: ways to rate your wins and losses. You can hit

410
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 2: it solid and then be out of bounds. That doesn't

411
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 2: mean anything just because I hit the center of the

412
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 2: club base. But I hit out of balance. That's a

413
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 2: loss for me, now, Okay. And then when you think

414
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 2: of the way golf is, there's only one winner. You

415
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 2: got about one hundred and forty people in the field.

416
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 2: You are losing week in and week out, right, because

417
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 2: if you're not first or last in some people's mindset,

418
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 2: right yeah, in golf, well if you're fifthy, that's pretty good,

419
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 2: like you know, you're getting paid. And so it's really

420
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 2: interesting how you speak about the baseball mindset, because in

421
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,640
Speaker 2: golf it really is a lot of failure. And when

422
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 2: you think about it, it's four and a half hours

423
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 2: of around, right, wow, So for that long you better

424
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 2: stay positive, especially if you had like a shot that

425
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 2: like really fuck things up, say like just throw your

426
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 2: rhythm off, you hit it into the water, hit into

427
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 2: the water again. You can be so rattled, you can

428
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 2: be so scared to set up and hit again. You're

429
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 2: trying to avoid all the waters. Now you're thinking of

430
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 2: don't do this, don't do this versus what you want

431
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 2: to execute, and you can psych yourself out. So I

432
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:33,479
Speaker 2: feel like that's pretty similar to that.

433
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,439
Speaker 3: You know, just what you just kind of made me

434
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 3: realize too, is that this is an individual sport that

435
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 3: I haven't played individual sports. I have my teammates to

436
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 3: lift me up, to feed off of you.

437
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, and wow, I still.

438
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 3: Think I'm in my little baby steps, you know, my

439
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 3: little baby era of learning golf. Like, once I get better,

440
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,879
Speaker 3: I feel like I will start to get more of

441
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 3: that pain for sure.

442
00:19:58,280 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't want you to have pain. It

443
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 1: pleas oh byell me.

444
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 2: Okay, So now we're going to talk about the People's League. So,

445
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 2: for those of you who don't know, the People's League

446
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 2: is actually the first creator league that was created for golf,

447
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 2: and it's based on YouTube. Me and Jenna are within

448
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,919
Speaker 2: the league. I'm the host of the league, but I

449
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 2: actually think I want to play.

450
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 4: Thank you.

451
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,639
Speaker 2: When I jump in, I'm happy to jump wherever they

452
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 2: need me. Oh my god, yeah, I'm so happy. And

453
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 2: so Jenna, talk to me about the People's League. How

454
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 2: did you get involved?

455
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,439
Speaker 1: What made you want to join? Especially being so new

456
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: in your golf career.

457
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,919
Speaker 3: I pride myself from branding myself as that multi sport

458
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 3: creator and so yeah, I have posted some golf content

459
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 3: and I got hit up by the People's League. And

460
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 3: it's kind of cool because like, I'm not the typical

461
00:20:55,240 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 3: golf creator my fans who are more football, basketball, baseball.

462
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 4: But also I think it's a smart move.

463
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 3: Honestly, I'm People's lead to bring me in there, even

464
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 3: though I'm not the best golfer. I'm going to bring

465
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 3: that publicity and the entertainment. And you know, for the

466
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,159
Speaker 3: first event, I was hurt, My knee was hurt, and

467
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 3: all I could do was.

468

Speaker 3: got the chance to get to know each other, and

476
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 3: I really appreciated that. It was a different experience than

477
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 3: I was than I've ever had before with a brand.

478

482
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,040

505
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 3: do stuff when I'm not coaching. So I just learned

506
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,720

00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 3: like I said, I'm a very visual learner. And I

514
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 3: started a YouTube in twenty nineteen, but I was still

515
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 3: coaching and during that time, I will segue a little

516
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 3: bit into the Guinness World Record.

517
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll talk about it.

518
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,160
Speaker 3: On his channel. We're playing horse but with the football

519
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 3: into the basketball hoop. He was juggling doing all this

520
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 3: crazy stuff, and I was like, let me just go deep.

521
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 3: I sunk it from deep, like from the grass, not

522
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 3: even on the court. I was on the grass and

523
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 3: I sunk it. And him having twenty two Guinness World Records,

524
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 3: He's like, Jenna, that might be a record. We look

525
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 3: it up. No girl has set the record. So that's

526
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 3: not just oh, now you have a Guinness Wild Record.

527
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 3: You have to do it in front of a Guinness

528
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 3: World Record adjudicator or a drudge.

529
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: Okay.

530
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 3: So he had the hookup me, Josh and two other creators.

531
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 3: We had records to set. We had a day we

532
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 3: rented a gym and we had the adjudicator there. He

533
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 3: measured it all out. It was ninety feet with the

534
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 3: NFL ball. I couldn't bank it in. And I made

535
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 3: the NFL ball into a basketball. Who got ten feet?

536
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,159
Speaker 3: And it was twenty nineteen and I got the Guinness

537
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 3: record for it. That is, so you switched it because

538
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:19,159
Speaker 3: you can't hit the back? Yeah, you just got it

539
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,920
Speaker 3: because it was into a target you can't. It wasn't

540
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 3: like like, oh, bank it off. It's kind of big

541
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 3: because I'm like, can someone beat my record? And they

542
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 3: could throw it into the target as big as a pool. Oh,

543
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 3: I don't see what you're saying.

544
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 4: I don't know.

545
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 3: But so Josh got to get a field record because

546
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 3: I know him. Started learning YouTube, right yeah, And I

576
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,520

Speaker 3: couldn't believe it. I'm not Danica Patrick right like. But

584
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,919
Speaker 3: the thing that, like I the reason why I was

585
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 3: so successful in both of those is because of what

586
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 3: I've learned since I was a little kid, and especially

587
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 3: in college, is I got the repsin. I was told

588
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 3: I was given one hundred thousand dollars opportunity. I didn't

589
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 3: just show up and wing it for the first one

590
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 3: for basketball, I got my repsin, I had the jim Key,

591
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 3: I was still a coach.

592
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 4: For the go karting one.

593
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:53,679
Speaker 3: They told us it was an Anaheim that's an hour

594
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 3: and a half drive. I drove out there, went to

595
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 3: the exact course, practiced, probably spent like two hundred fifty

596
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 3: bucks learning work it, learning the track line like and

597
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 3: it paid off, Like I gave me the extra edge

598
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 3: and advantage and I won.

599
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 1: That's insane.

600
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 3: So since then that like, so what I say, twenty

601
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,920
Speaker 3: twenty one, that was when I kind of was able

602
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 3: to prove to myself like I can do this. I

603
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:20,160
Speaker 3: just won these competitions. Now brands are coming in. I'm

604
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 3: more than just basketball creator. I can go kart, I

605
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 3: could do football, right, So now I'm like, let me

606
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,119
Speaker 3: just brand myself as this multi sport creator.

607
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 2: I mean, in hindsight, two hundred and fifty dollars or

608
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 2: one hundred thousand dollars a little tax.

609
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 1: That was a crazy, crazy year.

610
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,119
Speaker 3: I got a lot of crap for being prepared, Like

611
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 3: the creators.

612
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,479
Speaker 1: Were gone to me it I practiced. I'm not kidding you.

613
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 3: Like I was not only the only girl in the

614
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,400
Speaker 3: first one, but I was called a try hard. She's

615
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 3: taken it too seriously, but like that's what people who lose.

616
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 3: That's the type of excuses and the words, you know

617
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 3: what I mean. And same thing for the go karting one.

618
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,880
Speaker 3: They're like, oh, she used her one hundred k from

619
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,160
Speaker 3: her first win and spent it on a coach she.

620
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:01,960
Speaker 4: I pulled up.

621
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: Okay, so I called the glove I had racing bloods on.

622
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 1: That's actually really cute. I would do the same. I

623
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:09,440
Speaker 1: love cute.

624
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 3: But they're calling me a try ard. They're calling me like, oh,

625
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 3: she's cheating, she has a coach. I'm like, it's just

626
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 3: called preparation, right.

627
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 2: Okay, that is insane. But literally screw the haters, because

628
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 2: I mean, you're the one who want And also like,

629
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,199
Speaker 2: coming from being an athlete your whole life, if I

630
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 2: stepped up to a plate, I don't care if it

631
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 2: was soccer or a sport that I don't care about.

632
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,120
Speaker 2: If you give me a prize pool of one hundred

633
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 2: thousand dollars, thank you, I'm gonna cut your throat. Sure,

634
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 2: and it's a closure. I'm gonna cut your throat, like

635
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 2: I don't care if I suck. But that's also like

636
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 2: I'm a competitive person, so like for people to be like,

637
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 2: you're taking this way too seriously, you're a try hard

638
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 2: my bad for wanting to win this.

639
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 3: Like, yes, I am a try hard. I'm not too

640
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 3: cool to try hard. I'm not too cool to practice exactly.

641
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 1: And so twenty twenty one, the year is popping off

642
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 1: for you.

643
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 2: You're now getting you know, brand deals and whatnot, and

644
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 2: you're growing and so now flash to this year, you're

645
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 2: still going. And so what has the journey of social

646
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 2: media been like for you? Has it been a steady growth.

647
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 1: Are you enjoying it? Yeah, really expanded.

648
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 4: It's a great question.

649
00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 3: You know. At first, I was handling everything on my own,

650
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 3: negotiating my rates, the deals that I get, how much

651
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 3: money I'm getting paid, the deliverables I have to do.

652
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 4: I started to.

653
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 3: Realize, you know, like I got to quit coaching. I

654
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 3: can't do both anymore. So letting that go and then

655
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 3: getting a team behind me and not being afraid to delegate.

656
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 3: I mean, I remember giving cheap rates to editors, right,

657
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 3: and I got cheap work.

658
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 4: I got stuff that wasn't on time.

659
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 3: I got stuff that just wasn't even the direction I

660
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 3: told you guys to go into.

661
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 4: Now I'm like, okay, let me let me.

662
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 3: Pay a little more and I'll get quality work, you know.

663
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,239
Speaker 3: But yeah, every year I've been elevating. I've been to

664
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 3: the last four Super Bowls.

665
00:29:59,440 --> 00:29:59,960
Speaker 1: That's amazing.

666
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:04,400

Speaker 3: also weekends MLB World Series.

668
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 4: It's been crazy. It's been crazy day.

669
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 2: I mean, social media can truly take you to amazing places.

670
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,680

Speaker 1: Hostly, I think.

700
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 2: Like yeah, as being like independent entrepreneurs, like it is

701
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 2: really hard to trust someone else when it comes to

702
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 2: your work. Like I will say, when it comes to

703
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 2: my on YouTube and Instagram and TikTok, I am still

704
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 2: the one hitting the go button.

705
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 1: I'm still the.

706
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 2: One pretty much capturing and everything, and it is exhausting.

707
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 2: And it's like I did it on instam, Oh my god,

708
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 2: I forgot to do it on TikTok and YouTube shorts.

709
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 1: Oh I can always do that, you know, my rab,

710
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 1: I'm not Oh gosh, I can't be everywhere all at once.

711
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 2: Do you feel like since you began, like the trends

712
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 2: and what people are into on social media are different

713
00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 2: than what people want now, Like how do you feel

714
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 2: like it's been trying to keep up that like engagement

715
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 2: and retention?

716
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: You know, like what I shared tog.

717
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 2: Is so different because people are not into like swinging

718
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 2: a golf club and looking cute is not good enough anymore.

719
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 2: Not that that was my only path, y'all, I play pro,

720
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 2: but you know, like now I'm like, okay, I'm gonna

721
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 2: try and storytell.

722
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: I'm going to create a brand.

723
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 2: Okay, I'll do some trick shots and then some other

724
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 2: things like I can't base my.

725
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 1: Whole page on that.

726
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,000
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, I didn't feel like that resonated with my

727
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 2: people anymore. Like have you had to make a bit

728
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,000
Speaker 2: of a switch in your content.

729
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 4: Yes, totally.

730
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,479
Speaker 3: I love how you talked about storytelling because I'm going

731
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 3: to try to lean into that more. I'm very like

732
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 3: spectacle type of content, meaning like I'm going for the

733
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 3: virility and I've been learning like that's cool, But if

734
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 3: I want to really build a community, I needed storytell.

735
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 3: I need to really kind of lean into more vulnerable side.

736
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 3: I think people have an idea of who Drenna Bandy is.

737
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 3: That's something that I'm actually going to start doing soon

738
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 3: now that I'm I'm a little bit settled down. And

739
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 3: then on top of what you said building brand, like

740
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 3: I have built my own female parent brand called game

741
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 3: Change Her, And that is really kind of where this

742
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 3: all makes sense for me. It's where I kind of

743
00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,680
Speaker 3: get to put on my coach's hat again. Like every

744
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 3: day when I was coaching. I love seeing those girls

745
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 3: talking to them about their boyfriends, their girlfriend. I knew

746
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 3: them by name, and I might have a bunch of

747
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 3: followers now, but I don't know them by name. I

748
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 3: don't know them personally sure, and that's something that I

749
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 3: definitely miss being a coach. So now Game Changer, it's

750
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 3: my true impact, true influence, and I feel like that

751
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 3: keeps me going every day because I think being called

752
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 3: an influencer. Back in the day, I felt like that

753
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 3: stigma behind it was like, Oh, she's probably just selling

754
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 3: her body, She's just exactly But I'm like, no, I

755
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 3: actually got substance. I have talent and I'm trying to

756
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 3: make an impact.

757
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 2: When did you create game change her? And what was

758
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 2: like that moment for you? Like, no, I'm gonna make

759
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 2: this because I want to.

760
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 1: Do this now. Yeah.

761
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 3: It was a cool little thing happened when I was

762
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 3: in New York. I was with a brand and I

763
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 3: was playing basketball at one of the most known streetball courts,

764
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 3: the Cage at West Fourth, and a bunch of guys gathered.

765
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 3: If you beat me, you win these tickets whatever, And

766
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:23,879
Speaker 3: it was just a bunch of guys and I saw

767
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 3: this little girl, bright pink sweater and she comes up

768
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 3: to me and she was like hi, and I was

769
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:30,919
Speaker 3: like Hi, what's your name.

770
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 4: I'm Sophia. I'm like, hi, Sophia, I'm Jenna, and she

771
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 4: cut me off because you're Jenna Bandy. I watched all

772
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 4: your videos and I'm not kidding you, Tish.

773
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 3: Right there, I said, oh my god, I have to

774
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:46,840
Speaker 3: do something for girls, specifically and directly for women. I

775
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 3: have an overwhelming male following. I think eighty percent of

776
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,319
Speaker 3: my followers at least on Instagram or male sports. I'm

777
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 3: a chick whatever, right, Yeah, So I'm like, let me

778
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 3: do something as zech exactly for girls.

779
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 4: And that's really that moment for me.

780
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:04,520
Speaker 3: So I launched Game Changer in twenty twenty four of January,

781
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,799
Speaker 3: so it's trademarked. I got some apparel, it's a media company.

782
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 3: I have so many things I want to do with it,

783
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,960
Speaker 3: and literally right now I'm talking with my team like,

784
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 3: what is the actual narrowed down direction. You know, we're

785
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 3: trying to just influence and empowered game changers all around

786
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 3: the world, not just in sports, but in law and medicine,

787
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,280
Speaker 3: whatever chosen passion.

788
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 1: I love that.

789
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,360
Speaker 2: So what has been your favorites, like activation or event

790
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,000
Speaker 2: that you've done through Game Changers so far, it.

791
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,880
Speaker 3: Has to be the first event after the launch event.

792
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 3: It's kind of a full circle moment for me because

793
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 3: I was kind of put on with my one hundred

794
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:43,400
Speaker 3: thousand dollars opportunity. I then put on an event where

795
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 3: I actually put up twenty thousand dollars and it was

796
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 3: I brought together a bunch of female basketball creators and

797
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 3: it was really cool because they all came without me

798
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 3: paying them. We cover their flight and hotel. It was

799
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 3: at the Mall of America shopping spree. Bunch of brands,

800
00:35:58,239 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 3: bunch of free products.

801
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 1: Right, but now you know.

802
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 3: As creators, now no we need to get paid. Free

803
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 3: product is cool, Yeah yeah, yeah right, but when you

804
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 3: get paid and they all came without getting paid, which

805
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 3: was really cool. Long story short, it was a shooting

806
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,799
Speaker 3: competition and the girl that hit the winning shot, she

807
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 3: had the least amount of followers, and I just think

808
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 3: it was.

809
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,720
Speaker 1: The best story. Yeah, they won.

810
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:18,280
Speaker 4: The twenty grand.

811
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,279
Speaker 3: It was just a full circle moment and it really

812
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,799
Speaker 3: just kind of validated Game Changer and like wow, like

813
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 3: they're willing.

814
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 4: To show up for me.

815
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 3: It really like it proved to myself as well, and

816
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 3: not just outside, but like, wow, this is actually really

817
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,320
Speaker 3: something that people believe in and we'll get behind.

818
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 1: See.

819
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:37,439
Speaker 2: I don't think people realize like how much goes on

820
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,239
Speaker 2: to do something like that.

821
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,680
Speaker 1: But that's just like that's like so amazing a whole

822
00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:42,240
Speaker 1: other state.

823
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 2: It's a whole of the state and also at testament

824
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 2: to how good of a friend that you are, because

825
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,399
Speaker 2: people don't show up for people that they don't love,

826
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 2: and your friends show up for you, you know, like

827
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 2: a quick parlay.

828
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 1: Same similar but different.

829
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:56,840
Speaker 2: I hosted my first in my golf girl era event

830
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 2: last year, and I did something similar, not the Mall

831
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 2: of America and not fronting twenty thousand dollars, but I

832
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 2: hosted this big, you know, young girl event and all

833
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 2: these girls.

834
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 1: Looked at all you guys like superheroes.

835
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 2: And Jenna was one of my brilliant patties and she

836
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,439
Speaker 2: spell on my panel, and you showed up for me too.

837
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 3: You know.

838
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 1: I don't forget things like that, you know. So it's

839
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 1: it's really it.

840
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:18,359
Speaker 4: Means a lot.

841
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:20,879
Speaker 3: The fact that you even invited me had me out there,

842
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 3: like I said, like I love what.

843
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 4: You're doing like we're aligned.

844
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like there's so much that matches up

845
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,879
Speaker 3: between us, and so that inspired me to even though

846
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 3: it's not twenty thousand dollars prize at the end, like

847
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,440
Speaker 3: that inspired me. Just the little details, your little sweaters,

848
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 3: you made, your photo booth.

849
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 4: I'm telling you everything, and.

850
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 3: With all the prizes, I was like, oh, I got

851
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 3: to add a little auction at the end.

852
00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, really, yeah, it was really, it was

853
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 4: really great.

854
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:50,080
Speaker 1: I actually wanted to ask you what has been your

855
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:53,719
Speaker 1: favorite content piece that you have created?

856
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:55,959
Speaker 4: Oh sucks, I know that one's hard.

857
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 3: It is hard, I want to say because it was impromptu,

858
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:01,360
Speaker 3: It wasn't a brand deal.

859
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 4: It was when I met Steph Curry. Oh gosh, I

860
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 4: mean that's pretty cool.

861
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 3: So I was I was invited by the Clippers to

862
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 3: perform my Guinness World record during a timeout a minute

863
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,960
Speaker 3: and ten seconds. And the whole thing was that it

864
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 3: was right after the Super Bowl, so football is still

865
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 3: like in the air, and if I make the shot

866
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 3: from full court at the NBA court, I'm technically beating

867
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,439
Speaker 3: my record. My record's ninety feet and a full NBA

868
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 3: court's ninety four feet. So they're like Okay, here's in

869
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,239
Speaker 3: a bandy gettus a record holder. She's here to beat

870
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 3: her own record by four feet. Let's see what she

871
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:35,839
Speaker 3: could do.

872
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:36,439
Speaker 2: Right.

873
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 3: And So I'm there with Clippers and I specifically picked

874
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 3: that game because I knew they were playing the Warriors,

875
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 3: and I knew Steph Curry followed me, and.

876
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 4: I was like, maybe I get to meet him, maybe

877
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 4: I get a picture with him.

878
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 3: Right pregame, I'm on the court during warm up, Steph

879
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 3: Curry has this epic warm up. Everyone watches him and

880
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 3: we locked eyes and I'm like, oh crud, that's you know, like,

881
00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 3: here we go. And I have the football on my

882
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,399
Speaker 3: hand and he's in the same sideline as me. I'm

883
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 3: at half court rocking Clippers. He's clearly a Warriors player, right,

884
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 3: and he literally shoots the ball, looks at me, and

885
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:14,879
Speaker 3: he goes, I am hired by the Clippers, right. I

886
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 3: asked my Clippers liaison, could I throw the ball to

887
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 3: Steph Curry? He goes, yes, this is pregame warmups of

888
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 3: a basketball game. I have a football. I throw him

889
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,799
Speaker 3: the football. He catches it and then fumbles it. And

890
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 3: you probably get this. I literally was like, yes, because

891
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 3: you know why he wanted it back so I could

892
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 3: throw it to him again. Oh my god, exactly more

893
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 3: content right. Yeah, So everyone just at the corner of

894
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 3: their eyes are like football, what is going on? But

895
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 3: now he throws it back to me, and now everyone's

896
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 3: phones are out, and I'm like, this is amazing. So

897
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 3: I get the ball back. I throw it to him again.

898
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 3: He catches it, does a little touchdown dance.

899
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:56,279
Speaker 1: Yeah.

900
00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 3: And then I thought he took my ball because he

901
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 3: started running into the tunnel with it. And the next

902
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 3: thing you know, he just turns and tosses it and

903
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,640
Speaker 3: when I tell you, tishre it went to the other

904
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 3: side of the court. I was willing to run down

905
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,160
Speaker 3: a grandma for this. I dropped the trailer and I

906
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 3: freaking sprinted caught that thing, held it up, and immediately

907
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,960
Speaker 3: I just have tears in my eyes because it was

908
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 3: just an impromptu viral moment for me.

909
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:22,760
Speaker 4: And I was like, holy crap, what just happened.

910
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 1: It was so fast.

911
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 3: So I'm walking back to my clipper's lais on and

912
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 3: I'm like, did you get it? Because he had his phone.

913
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,399
Speaker 3: Now I was like He's like yeah, And this big

914
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,840

916
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:36,240
Speaker 3: jigged his finger.

917
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 1: This is against the rules.

918
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,279
Speaker 4: Like, this is the NBA game, the football is in

919
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 4: the stadium. What's going on. I'm thinking the worst.

920
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:43,319
Speaker 2: Yeah.

921
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,240
Speaker 3: He leads me down the tunnel and Steph is waiting

922
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 3: for me. He's like, why got that Clipper shirt on?

923
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 3: And I'm like, oh, they hired me to get into

924
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:54,319
Speaker 3: a record, you know. He's like, well, good luck, you know,

925
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 3: and I'm a really big fan of you. He's just

926
00:40:56,840 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 3: dapping me up, man, like I'm this like superstar when

927
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,239
Speaker 3: he's the legend, And it was just the coolest thing.

928
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,439
Speaker 3: Got a picture with him, got to he said good luck,

929
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:10,279
Speaker 3: but it was just so much more than meeting him

930
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 3: and getting a picture. I then went on and had

931
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:16,560
Speaker 3: the time out and missed all ten throws, by the way,

932
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,839
Speaker 3: but who cares because I still held the record and

933
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 3: I got a whole viral clip the selest moment.

934
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 1: I mean, that's such a moment. That was so cool.

935
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,120
Speaker 1: So I know we touched on this outside of the podcast.

936
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 2: We're going to switch gears here, Like you've clearly had

937
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 2: so much success and being a creator and you're clearly

938
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 2: so renowned, But I don't really think people understand what

939
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 2: it takes behind the scenes to keep the you know,

940
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:46,920
Speaker 2: the wheels turning, like we are our own entrepreneurs, yes,

941
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 2: and so like, how does it work for you behind

942
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:53,720
Speaker 2: the scenes with your agents, how you handle your money,

943
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:56,359
Speaker 2: how you handle your scheduling, all of it. Like, take

944
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,959
Speaker 2: me behind the scenes of the life of Jenna Bandy quick.

945
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 4: It's a lot. Hardest part is really just holding yourself accountable.

946
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:06,800
Speaker 3: Sure, it's nice to wake up and not have a

947
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,359
Speaker 3: nine to five, but then it's kind of like your

948
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 3: brain never stops. You're always constantly thinking, all right, I

949
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,399
Speaker 3: posted this video. I know this is a banger, but

950
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 3: what's next? Yeah, you know you feel that like you're

951
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 3: never satisfied. Fully, I just think since twenty twenty one,

952
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:28,240
Speaker 3: I have been on myself more. I've spent more money,

953
00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 3: but I know that it's coming back in a way

954
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:33,360
Speaker 3: where I'm getting more brand deals.

955
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 2: So I wanted to ask you this and like, I

956
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,520
Speaker 2: will be transparent back and you can share with me

957
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:39,479
Speaker 2: how much you want to share.

958
00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 1: Okay, what has been like.

959
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:45,120
Speaker 2: The largest you can give me a ballpark, largest deal

960
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 2: that you've ever had. Okay, okay, so annual deal.

961
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 3: Annual yeah, yeah, six six six six figures.

962
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:55,839
Speaker 2: Okay, yes, because you said it, I'll see the same

963
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:57,880
Speaker 2: back line has also been six figures as well, but

964
00:42:57,960 --> 00:42:58,920
Speaker 2: on the low side.

965
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,920
Speaker 1: But I will say it'sfiable. Okay, we we'll justify it.

966
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,200
Speaker 2: Then, I think for anyone, because I get this question

967
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 2: a lot on my personal channel, I will say that,

968
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 2: like when it comes to these prices and whatnot, I

969
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,760
Speaker 2: think people are always very like shell shocked to some degree.

970
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 2: But hopefully in listening to this, you guys realize how

971
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:18,719
Speaker 2: much work goes behind it. And we're also personalities too,

972
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 2: Like we're not just compensated to do the post right,

973
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 2: we're compensated to show up, create a good time, yeah,

974
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,799
Speaker 2: for everyone around us, a moment for everyone, whether it's

975
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 2: like you know, inspiring young girls or like you know,

976
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:33,000
Speaker 2: showing off and doing a thing like that in itself

977
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 2: is like your job.

978
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,719
Speaker 3: In retrospect, though, when you think about when people are

979
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,680
Speaker 3: kind of blown away, like wow, you get paid that much,

980
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 3: there is still kind of that feeling towards me because

981
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:45,400
Speaker 3: I'm like, wow, like I get to do what I

982
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:48,359
Speaker 3: love and I honestly, just like you, if you take

983
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 3: away the social media, you'd still be out there ripping

984
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 3: the golf ball. Yeah, I'd still be out there throwing

985
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,839
Speaker 3: the football with my brother shooting hoops. So it's kind

986
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 3: of something like, Wow, I really get to do something

987
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 3: that I already was going to do. Now I'm just

988
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,360
Speaker 3: I'm turning it on here and I'm I'm being a

989
00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 3: little bit more strategic with it.

990
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,280
Speaker 1: For sure, No, for sure. Well, I appreciate your openness

991
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 1: because I don't think people really talk about that stuff

992
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:11,839
Speaker 1: very much, and I think it.

993
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 2: Just is comforting to talk to someone else about it,

994
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 2: Like we are doing what we love. But it doesn't

995
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,720
Speaker 2: mean that there isn't pains or stresses that come along

996
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 2: with it.

997
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:19,960
Speaker 1: And so this is my.

998
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:21,960
Speaker 2: Last question for you, because I know we're already winding down,

999
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:23,800
Speaker 2: which is so crazy, because like I feel like I

1000
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:26,440
Speaker 2: could talk to you forever, like we talked about your

1001
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:29,200
Speaker 2: whole life and whatnot. But like, what is Jenna Bandy

1002
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 2: like behind the scenes, Like you're always on, You're always

1003
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 2: so happy, and like you bring such a light to

1004
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 2: other people. You're such a hype girl, right, Like you're

1005
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:40,360
Speaker 2: a team player. But like what is Jenna Bandy like

1006
00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:42,000
Speaker 2: behind closed doors?

1007
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:45,879
Speaker 3: Honestly, I'm such a family girl. I still live very

1008
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:47,880
Speaker 3: close to my mom and dad. You know. I have

1009
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 3: a twin brother, like I can't spend a birthday without him. Yeah,

1010
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:55,800
Speaker 3: and then like I'm in love with my nieces and nephews.

1011
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 4: Like, I'm just such a family girl. You know what,

1012
00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:02,800
Speaker 4: I'll tell you. I am super emotional really, just even though.

1013
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:07,160
Speaker 3: I'm so alpha competitive, talking shit, right, I am girly

1014
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,880
Speaker 3: and I think I take I think I take people

1015
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:13,439
Speaker 3: by surprise because they think, oh, you're talking shit with me, right. Yeah,

1016
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,319
Speaker 3: I'm very emotional. I wear my heart on my sleeve,

1017
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:17,280
Speaker 3: you know, I just get quiet.

1018
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. I love that though. I love that you're open

1019
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 1: about it though.

1020
00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 2: I mean it's really real being alpha women, especially in

1021
00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:25,880
Speaker 2: a place where you're always on and you're front facing.

1022
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,359
Speaker 2: Like it's okay to be in your soft girl era too.

1023
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,160
Speaker 2: I mean it's okay to have a little and I

1024
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 2: am a good cry.

1025
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,360
Speaker 4: You'll do that, a little good cry.
