You know before we 21 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: get started man. Obviously I'm a major fan man, been 22 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,399 Speaker 1: uh rocking with your movement for a long time. I 23 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: like how you keep it real and keep it funky. 24 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: Something today that seems to have disappear. Yeah, I mean 25 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 1: I think, like, you know, keeping it real or rocking 26 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: the boat, so to speak, is a tough thing in 27 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,400 Speaker 1: this business, especially for people who are now creatives. Right 28 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 1: think about it, right, you know, like people who um 29 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,040 Speaker 1: have their own brands now and building their own like 30 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: you know, even like you guys building your your network, 31 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: your podcast, you know, building building your you know kind 32 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: of cash flow and and and and building your you know, it's, um, 33 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 1: it's a tough world, right, you know what I mean, 34 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: it's um it's it's not built you know, to help 35 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: each other. So I think that that has been changing, 36 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,559 Speaker 1: where creatives look out for creatives and more people believe 37 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: in their brands. So I think, like, you know, I 38 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 1: say this sort of time. But you know, Hines catch 39 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: up and uh Hellman's Mayonnaise, regardless if you funk with 40 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: them or not, those are two peoples in the ketchup 41 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: in the Mayo. But there's so many chances for gangster chronicles. 42 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 1: Mayo premium pizza sauce, you know, Joe Button Spices. I'm 43 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: making this up, you know what I'm saying of where 44 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 1: it's now more than just you know, just being a 45 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: podcast or more than just being one thing. You know, 46 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: And I think that as creatives, you know, you gotta 47 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: keep it real because you know, some people, I get it, 48 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: they don't want to rock the boat. But unfortunately you 49 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,239 Speaker 1: just waste a lot of time, you know what I mean, 50 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: It's real. Well, you know what today everything should be 51 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: based on someone's reality, right And I know some podcasts 52 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 1: and what we what I see, I see a lot 53 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: of Um, I've see a lot of crazy ship. Man. 54 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: I see a bunch of already five fifty year old cats, 55 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: some cats even older, doing a bunch of just crazy 56 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 1: ship right now, man.

I want to say this before 70 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: we go into your question. Even like your co hosts, 71 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: even like people, people focus on podcast too much. What 72 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: I mean by that is like who's the guest? Right, 73 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: tend to guests help you. But it's not about only 74 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: who the guest is on your podcast. It's a guest 75 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: who's in your fucking circle.

It's 79 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: not about having premium on your podcast. I mean, for 80 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: whatever it's worth, there's so many names you can have. 81 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 1: Will it help or will it look good? Yeah? I 82 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 1: think that's a good thing, just like how I would 83 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: decipher who will look good on my list of people. Right. 84 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: The point I'm trying to make is for me, it's 85 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: always been building and I don't mean that in a 86 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: corny way, like Yo, it was build, like you know 87 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: what I mean, because people would just say, like, Yo, 88 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 1: let's get it's like a rapid She like, Yo, it's built. 89 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 1: They don't build.

They want to tell stories that shouldn't 98 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: be told.

You just never heard about all the 290 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: fun ship. Right. So when we first got in the game, man, 291 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: we had a pretty um we started making a little 292 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 1: bit of noise, right, So we started getting different people 293 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 1: outing at us, and um, we didn't have a bunch 294 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: of podcast networks out here. Podcasting is very much an 295 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: East Coast thing, you know what I mean. There were 296 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: people producing podcasts out here, but not really in the 297 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: urban genre. You had guys had YouTube channels up for 298 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: the hundred times you having the show on YouTube channel. 299 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 1: If you don't have no audio, you ain't got a 300 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: damn podcast. Yeah, I mean, let me just say this 301 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: real quick. Don't lose your chain and thought. I remember years, 302 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 1: for years we were on PNC Radio, so we were 303 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: like an online show to combat Jack Show. And uh, 304 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 1: I mean people saying, well, when you become a podcast, 305 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: and that's why it's kind of late. Like sometimes I 306 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: have us that we're a podcast, like two thousand, twelve 307 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: or thirteen. The reason why is because how do you 308 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: make a podcast? Right? This is something that we were 309 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: saying thirteen years ago. Just put it on iTunes. We 310 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: were online show for all those years, you know what 311 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: I'm saying, So we didn't even know, like so now 312 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: you know it elevating.

But man, I'll tell you man, 318 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not giving all the secrets around anymore, 319 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: but all the money in on YouTube and the brand 320 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: we may like to be actually premium. We've done extremely 321 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: well with audio. Yeah, most people love the way they look. 322 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: I deal with people. I deal with people, you know, 323 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 1: in different networks. Off of them, shows do shows, produced, 324 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: shows created shows. A lot of people, some of them. 325 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: The audio be a nice bag, and people are like, 326 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: I need fifty and fixed my teeth, and I'm like, 327 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: it's not video, so audio you can make a nice bag. 328 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: We can go to video in the future. But now 329 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: it's just audio, you know, And people like, okay, so 330 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: go make less money and and worry about you looking 331 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: good instead of you being good. You know. At the 332 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: end of the day, funk A podcast suck anything. How 333 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: do you make a living doing what you want? Right now? 334 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: It's so easy to become popular, but broke right because 335 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: people don't People don't know how to set up a 336 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: system to make money right. And here's the biggest problem 337 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: I think, and like I said, you know, is that 338 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 1: it's not only within the podcast. It's people don't open 339 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: their mind and make money because of their podcasts. And 340 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: that's like another thing, you know what I'm saying. I mean, 341 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: don't get me wrong. You can make good money doing 342 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 1: your podcast obviously is people know networks, etcetera, etcetera. But 343 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 1: what I'm saying is it's not gonna happen to everybody, 344 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: and there's other ways and avenues around it to get there, 345 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: and people need that patience. I have people listen during 346 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 1: the pandemic, even I had so many even now I 347 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: have so many people call me, I want to start 348 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 1: a podcast, soever anybody. Two weeks later they're like, oh, 349 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,919 Speaker 1: we're not doing the numbers that this one's who the 350 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: fuck you just started? And you know what, they gage 351 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 1: those members from YouTube. Yeah, I think what it happened 352 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:54,199 Speaker 1: is Man and I had this before I got to Homeboys. 353 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,679 Speaker 1: I won't make their name. They're two pretty prominent, you know, rapidly, 354 00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 1: got a lot of history, especially on the West Coast. 355 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: So they started podcast. Man, the episodes are doing better online. 356 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: They're performing better on YouTube than they are in the audio. 357 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,879 Speaker 1: And my suggestion to them was this for the first 358 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: ten episodes, let's not do video. Let's just go in 359 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: and perfect getting your podcast chops down. But no, they 360 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: want to go out and spend all this money on 361 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: this big studio man and and this and that, and 362 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 1: they did, and they weren't getting the results that they wanted. 363 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: They weren't happy because when I tell you the second episode, man, 364 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 1: that we have we book any reads?

Here's the thing, Like, 380 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 1: you know, if you're trying to get into a genre 381 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: that has already saturated, do something different, but also put 382 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 1: your spin on it. You know what I'm saying. You 383 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: can always stay in hip hop or whatever you love honey, 384 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,359 Speaker 1: cultural stuff, but put your spin on it. You know, 385 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: we look we look too much to people's public highlight reel. 386 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 1: And when try to emulate that ship like like, come 387 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: on man, you know, and duplicate, replicate all things.

But it's not to glorify the life or 394 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,959 Speaker 1: anything like that. Is to give these keys out here 395 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: a message to let them know the repercussions are real 396 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 1: to anything that you do do. But I had a 397 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 1: guy tell me one time, good friend of mine, he 398 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 1: was on the show, and I was like, well man, 399 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: what made you decide to go on in the podcasting? 400 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: Well man, I just saw what y'all was doing and 401 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: just did the same thing.

Man and Biding wouldn't tolerate it. 404 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: Now you would have a guy see guys with a 405 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,439 Speaker 1: bunch of beer bottles and ship in the table they 406 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,360 Speaker 1: call it.

In this day and age, there's no reason 421 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: to be doing anything illegal, no reason. And I'm gonna 422 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: tell you why. There's so many opportunities to make money. 423 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: The only opportunities that we weren't afforded when I was young. 424 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,199 Speaker 1: When I was young, I had a paper route and 425 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 1: I bed groceries and wall bombs. It was a grocery 426 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 1: store straight up and down. You could have got a 427 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: regular job. I was young at the time. If I 428 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: wanted to get things nice, I have to sell drugs 429 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 1: or do something illegal. Straight the funk up. Okay, that's 430 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 1: what it what it was.

You're 527 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 1: able to help out some friends instead of giving them 528 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 1: something that you say, Hey, man, that's your job.

You gotta remember at that time, Pete, 539 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: they were telling people that black people won't listen to podcasts, 540 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,880 Speaker 1: the standing people won't listen to pod cast the exactly 541 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,199 Speaker 1: like we just all a monolift, you know what I mean, 542 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: We just all do the same stuff and just walk 543 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: straight aga.

You know, they 545 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 1: would say, well, man, you know at that time, you 546 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: can get ten to fifteen thousand. It was a week 547 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 1: and then it was pretty good. You know. I was like, okay, 548 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: this is good. That was back then, and they would say, well, no, 549 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: you need to be at twenty. You know, we get 550 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: then we started getting the thirties. Then it count. You know, 551 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,199 Speaker 1: like you said, I started calling they're bullshit because we 552 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,159 Speaker 1: were using the um CBS building at the time.

So I had these cats hit me up. 572 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: Man from a company called him a layer, when that 573 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 1: was the most professional fucking setup of heels like I 574 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: was working on.

It was like, it's only craging. 596 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 1: So it did started off good for the first two 597 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: months because him Alaya was a professional organization. But the 598 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: other motherfucker I won't mention his name because I don't 599 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 1: do the online cat fight. He was a piece of ship, 600 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 1: but he was running everything. So he was the nicest 601 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: guy in the world at first, right, but he was 602 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: working for somebody else. So we had an event there 603 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: one night. Man, the things started went around the kind 604 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 1: of party. Hey, they're changing the name of the company 605 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 1: to Notorious, and it's like Notorious. Um. Then my phone 606 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 1: goes off. I get an email is from the guy 607 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 1: from Japan. He's telling us we fired Peter Vincer. So 608 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 1: anybody that's you know, signed, you know, had the deal, 609 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: contact us and we get you set up with alternative 610 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 1: recording solutions until we figure out the situation. Because you 611 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 1: have to remember he was the president of the company, right, 612 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 1: He was the president of the company. Um, he's got 613 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: he hired to facilitate everything and opened up everything in America. 614 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: So the house was in his name, all the hundreds 615 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: of thousands and they spent on equipment was in his name. Right, 616 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: So he pretty much just hijacked the whole motherfucking company. 617 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 1: So I'm like, man, you know what. He talks to 618 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 1: me about it that next Monday, and I'm like, dude, 619 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: this is not what I signed up before. What's going 620 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: to change? And then I started knowing, noticing the people 621 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 1: that they had to the quality of people. The quality 622 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: people started walking out the door. Now there were a 623 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: lot of good quality people left. But the reason why 624 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: I came. They had this guy. There was none booking 625 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff. They had this person there was 626 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: a hell of a publicist. And I knew these people, right, 627 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: I knew their reputations. So I was like, dog, it 628 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: seemed like your team walking out the door. Now, to 629 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 1: keep in mind, there were some very great people, people 630 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: I still deal with to this day. They were still there. 631 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: So we're booking reads, right, We stayed booking reads. And 632 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: so when you have people that trust you and that 633 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: that means me. They didn't sign a deal with them, 634 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 1: They signed a deal with me. So I'm responsible for 635 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: everything ultimately. So people are booking stuff and they come 636 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: and ask me, and they're nice about it. To cool, 637 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: They're like, still, you know, man, I know this. It's 638 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: been like forty five days on this one. I did 639 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 1: thirty days, you know, forty five days, going supposed to 640 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: get paid them thirty you know. And so I went 641 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 1: to Peter and I was like, dude, what's happening with 642 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: the prayer? Oh, man, we don't have an E I 643 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: N number in the bankers that you know they want. 644 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: I said, dude, while been waiting on the E I 645 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 1: A N number I called, the people didn't custom out, man, 646 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 1: I said, man, come on and cut the bullshit. Man, 647 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: you're not talking to boot with the food. I said, 648 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: it take two minutes to get the E I in.

That's 1170 00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:48,040 Speaker 1: why I often say, like when I talk about digital soapbox, Man, 1171 00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:50,719 Speaker 1: we were doing a lot of great things. Man. We 1172 00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:54,640 Speaker 1: launched the TV network. Man that launches this marks Man. 1173 00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:58,239 Speaker 1: So it's a lot of our communities that have just 1174 00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:00,839 Speaker 1: through the different people that I meant that and partnerships 1175 00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:03,120 Speaker 1: I've made.

Sometimes 1182 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 1: because one of the guys that has helped me the 1183 00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:24,600 Speaker 1: most of my career. When I first met him, I 1184 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:28,120 Speaker 1: thought he was the biggest asshole, but I didn't say 1185 00:57:28,160 --> 00:57:33,920 Speaker 1: anything because because he's just a very direct person.

And I 1193 00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:55,000 Speaker 1: think that's the type of friends that I surrounded myself with, 1194 00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:56,680 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And I'll tell you when 1195 00:57:56,680 --> 00:57:59,080 Speaker 1: you say, like you know short and everything, that's a 1196 00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:01,400 Speaker 1: beautiful thing. You know, I look at it like that's 1197 00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:03,160 Speaker 1: why you know. One thing I will say to not 1198 00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:06,600 Speaker 1: only you on this interview, to people who are listening 1199 00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:10,120 Speaker 1: to whenever they listen. You know, keep the water running. 1200 00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:12,560 Speaker 1: What I mean by when I say keep the water running. 1201 00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:15,800 Speaker 1: These things happen because you're keeping these things happening. You 1202 00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:18,320 Speaker 1: know what I mean. Things happen because one thing opens 1203 00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:21,080 Speaker 1: up another thing. You know, like even when you think 1204 00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:23,400 Speaker 1: about you know, I'll share this with you real quick. 1205 00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:26,680 Speaker 1: You know, armand the same thing. Legendary actor. You know 1206 00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:30,440 Speaker 1: what I mean. I had him on show. Now, me 1207 00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:33,360 Speaker 1: and him, we day to day. You know what I'm saying, 1208 00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:35,760 Speaker 1: Like you know I would. I was at his house 1209 00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:37,680 Speaker 1: for like three months, you know what I'm saying, working 1210 00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:40,120 Speaker 1: on a project with him. I just had him as 1211 00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:43,880 Speaker 1: a guest on my show. You know what I'm saying, 1212 00:58:43,880 --> 00:58:45,560 Speaker 1: so so so to the point I'm trying to make 1213 00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:49,520 Speaker 1: is build those bricks, have patience, you know what I'm saying, 1214 00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:53,440 Speaker 1: do right business by people, you know, and unfortunately not 1215 00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:57,560 Speaker 1: everybody is gonna come along. Man. Something that really hurts 1216 00:58:57,600 --> 00:58:59,440 Speaker 1: me in my old age, where it's like, you know, 1217 00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:01,520 Speaker 1: you picture of life is a bus and people get 1218 00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:05,920 Speaker 1: off on certain stops and sometimes like damn, man, I 1219 00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:09,240 Speaker 1: wish they were still on the bus. But it don't 1220 00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:12,440 Speaker 1: work like that sometimes. Then I'm gonna tell you, Pete, 1221 00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:17,120 Speaker 1: that's been my biggest kind of achilles because you know, 1222 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:20,360 Speaker 1: when you run a network, you're always looking at numbers. 1223 00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:23,800 Speaker 1: Everything is numbers. The thing about numbers, they're not based 1224 00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:26,960 Speaker 1: on the motion. They're based on purely fact and that's 1225 00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:30,080 Speaker 1: based on some subjective ship. But they're based on factors 1226 00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:32,440 Speaker 1: right there. Hey man, you did thirty thousand downloads in 1227 00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:34,360 Speaker 1: the last episode. That's a good job. You know, we 1228 00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:37,760 Speaker 1: go kick that up something. But one of the hardest 1229 00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:41,200 Speaker 1: decisions to make, man, is letting people go. Sometimes you 1230 00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:45,280 Speaker 1: have to not only release people from a business situation 1231 00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:48,600 Speaker 1: if they're not performing to expectations. Sometimes you have to 1232 00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:52,000 Speaker 1: release certain elements of your life, certain people that just 1233 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:55,320 Speaker 1: aren't good for you. I have people that I love, Pete, 1234 00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:58,160 Speaker 1: but they just don't. We can't co excite the same 1235 00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:02,120 Speaker 1: space now because the they're running around, they got dope 1236 01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:04,480 Speaker 1: in the trunk, they got hammers up under the seat. 1237 01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:06,880 Speaker 1: I can't get in the car with you, bro, I 1238 01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:09,280 Speaker 1: can't have you come. You can't come up with my house, bro, 1239 01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:11,800 Speaker 1: because I don't know who's sitting on you right now 1240 01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:13,880 Speaker 1: that might be looking at you and then not connecting 1241 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:16,160 Speaker 1: me with your bullshit. I don't know if you've got 1242 01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:19,000 Speaker 1: the boys watching you right now now that you know 1243 01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:21,760 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, you just don't know. So you have 1244 01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:26,120 Speaker 1: to really, man, releasing someone both in business and in 1245 01:00:26,200 --> 01:00:30,400 Speaker 1: your personal life is the hardest ship ever. Because I'm 1246 01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:32,760 Speaker 1: not gonna lie. I love everybody on our network, dude, 1247 01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 1: there they we become like a family. So sometimes when 1248 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:39,840 Speaker 1: someone in the family is not performing to expectation, you 1249 01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:42,200 Speaker 1: have to look and say, man, do I keep making 1250 01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:45,080 Speaker 1: the investment and this guy whether it's you know, five 1251 01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:47,320 Speaker 1: thousand dollars a year, whether it's you know, a couple 1252 01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:50,560 Speaker 1: hundred dollars a year. So you have to make decisions. Man, 1253 01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:54,880 Speaker 1: Now you've got a lot of ship going on. Man, 1254 01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:57,600 Speaker 1: where can people catch up with you at well?
