But to me, I'll 0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:10.200 told you just before, Like to me, the business story 0:07:10.240 --> 0:07:12.920 to me is is like what really interests me because 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.760 it's like we see you, you know, you've done deals 0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:20.720 with Puma, foot Locker, Hennessy, NFL Network, tedtalks Global Citizens 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:22.360 all of that right, and like I said, Number one 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:27.480 podcast merged Trademark's book, all of that stuff. But at 0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:30.200 what point, because we spoke about this on the phone, Like, 0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:32.280 at what point did you see the direction that the 0:07:32.320 --> 0:07:35.120 world was changing while you're actually incarcerated and map out 0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:38.480 a strategy to hit the ground running when you come home, 0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:39.960 because I know when you first came home, the first 0:07:39.960 --> 0:07:42.280 business that you had was selling T shirts, like literally 0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:43.360 like just on the street corner. 0:07:43.240 --> 0:07:45.560 Right, Yeah, it was just like that was the first thing. 0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:47.400 But when I was in prison, it was like I 0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:49.520 used to I used to read a lot man and 0:07:51.040 --> 0:07:53.080 it was it was a guy called Anthony Bourdain. He 0:07:53.120 --> 0:07:54.480 was a legend to me. That was like a teacher 0:07:54.520 --> 0:07:57.880 from far away. Because Anthony Bourdain had three shows, no Reservation, 0:07:57.960 --> 0:08:01.000 parts unknown in the layover, why on like you know, 0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:04.240 different channels, Discovery a channel, all type of travel channel, 0:08:05.040 --> 0:08:08.800 all the CNN. And this dude used to be a 0:08:08.840 --> 0:08:10.960 heroin addict and he got hisself together and he used 0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:13.360 to be all over the world and exposing people the 0:08:13.440 --> 0:08:15.840 different cultures and different ways of life and ways of thinking. 0:08:16.240 --> 0:08:17.760 So I was up on him. Then I used to 0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:22.960 read all the time Entrepreneur, Forbes, Black Enterprise, and I 0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:26.280 would read as much as possible, Rolling Stone, GQ, Vanity, Fear, 0:08:26.480 --> 0:08:29.360 and I would read articles about people making it happen technology, 0:08:29.400 --> 0:08:32.240 Wired Magazine, And when people used to come to prison, 0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:35.200 I used to always interview people like about life. I 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:37.440 wanted to know what was going on in life, because 0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:40.040 in jail life stop. It's not really life. It's not 0:08:40.080 --> 0:08:42.640 no oxygen. So when people come, I would want to go, 0:08:42.920 --> 0:08:45.000 I would want to get I would want to escape 0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:47.120 the reality I was going through. So my way to 0:08:47.200 --> 0:08:50.199 escape is I would just interrogate them, man like, ask 0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:53.360 them a thousand questions. Man's about life. Somebody knew coming 0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:55.320 in new coming in, and I when I first heard 0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:58.520 about Google and YouTube, I was like, man, I didn't 0:08:58.520 --> 0:09:00.520 believe somebody when they first told me about Google, cause 0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:02.280 it was like what you Yeah, well you could type 0:09:02.320 --> 0:09:03.640 your name, And I said, why I want my name 0:09:03.679 --> 0:09:05.440 being there? I've been in jail, like how could you 0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:08.080 type my name? And something to come up? And you know, 0:09:08.120 --> 0:09:09.400 I saw. I used to write it down and a 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:11.720 thing called the Book of Life. The Book of Life 0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:13.480 is a book that I had, the composition book, and 0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:16.120 I used to write everything down, all over, every every 0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:18.160 inchy that I would use to write I mean, I 0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:20.000 might be talking to you or tell me somebody app 0:09:20.120 --> 0:09:22.040 or or you might tell me somebody the website, but 0:09:22.200 --> 0:09:24.199 I gotta remember that. I don't care what time. I 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:26.240 got all types of stuff written in that book of life, 0:09:26.600 --> 0:09:29.800 you know, and uh, and it just was like one 0:09:29.880 --> 0:09:31.880 day I'm gonna look into it.

And once we gave me that, 0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:42.040 it was like I came alive. 0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:43.880 When the first time you saw an iPod you think 0:09:43.960 --> 0:09:45.640 it was like an alien and like, what did you. 0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:47.600 Not dropped it?

You 0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:25.960 know that was a slogan come from It's Always sunny 0:14:25.960 --> 0:14:27.240 in Philadelphia, the show. 0:14:27.400 --> 0:14:27.840 So I see it. 0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:29.600 I go with that, and I started printing that on 0:14:29.680 --> 0:14:32.320 shirts and it was like game time, Like it was like. 0:14:33.160 --> 0:14:35.080 So when you when you when you come home, like 0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:38.120 what's the first steps of getting the T shirt?

A couple of people hit me off, gave 0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:48.560 me a couple of hours. But they don't take nothing 0:14:48.600 --> 0:14:51.080 to start like a T shirt line, like you know, 0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:53.160 went to the local printer. I want. This is what 0:14:53.200 --> 0:14:57.200 I want.

I went there. I heard about 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:06.560 a guy named Mark, you know, uh from Hustle's Union. 0:15:06.560 --> 0:15:08.240 I heard about him in jail because I knew a guy. 0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:10.160 I knew people that was dealing with him. My homie 0:15:10.200 --> 0:15:13.000 girl was dealing with him. Uh. She had a clothing line, 0:15:13.280 --> 0:15:14.840 and when I came home, she took me to him, 0:15:14.840 --> 0:15:16.280 like yo, here you go. And I was like, okay, 0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:19.480 it's on. And I would just buy a certain I 0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:22.360 don't I forget how many was probably like twenty. I 0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:24.480 bought him, took him to him, paid a couple of 0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:25.720 dollars for the shirt, a couple of dollars for the 0:15:25.760 --> 0:15:28.440 sealk screening, and I just went with it. I just 0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:30.000 was like, all right, I'm gonna go sell these. I 0:15:30.080 --> 0:15:32.480 was selling T shirts in the winter time, hand in 0:15:32.560 --> 0:15:36.640 hand man like coke so and I just started selling 0:15:36.680 --> 0:15:39.320 them and just and just start I just start feeling it. 0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:41.200 At that point when you're coming up with these slogans 0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:44.120 in your mind, like obviously you've been studying, are you 0:15:44.120 --> 0:15:44.600 thinking about it? 0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:45.520 I got a trademark this. 0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:48.000 Or or you know, I already knew about trademarkses I 0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:51.000 ran into in jail. I ran into an intellectual property attorney. 0:15:51.040 --> 0:15:53.320 He was in jail, and uh, he gave me the 0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:55.440 game about that and I read about it. But he 0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:57.760 would tell me about intellecttions cause I'm like, intellectual property, 0:15:57.840 --> 0:15:59.680 What the hell? What type of real estate you got? 0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:01.880 You know what I'm saying, because you say properly. And 0:16:02.000 --> 0:16:03.600 then and then he said, you know, in the reality, 0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:05.640 that is like real estate. Yeah, you know what I mean, 0:16:05.680 --> 0:16:07.560 because it's still properly. It's still stuff that you can 0:16:07.600 --> 0:16:10.880 make money offever it's properly you know. License. And then 0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:12.480 I used to watch Shark Tank and I would see 0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:15.520 them talking about, you know, asking people they own the 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:18.080 join and telling about licenses and royalties at the trademark 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:21.240 and I'm like, oh shit, this is the game. So 0:16:21.320 --> 0:16:23.760 I always was fascinated with trademarks and understanding that, and 0:16:23.880 --> 0:16:26.080 like so I said Okay, I'm a trademark shit and 0:16:26.160 --> 0:16:29.480 I just write stuff down right, company names, right, ideas down. 0:16:29.520 --> 0:16:31.000 And I was like, I'm a trademark this shit. 0:16:31.680 --> 0:16:34.440 So one thing I was I was actually curious about 0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:36.360 this a business podcast.

I knew one thing that I knew. 0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:37.239 I knew the attention span. I knew that I had 0:18:37.240 --> 0:18:39.359 to battle with the timeline. So what I did was, 0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:43.680 I knew that whether I'm laying on the ground with 0:18:43.760 --> 0:18:46.760 ketchup on my head or rather I'm jumping off a roof, 0:18:47.600 --> 0:18:49.960 I had to grab your attention because I had to 0:18:49.960 --> 0:18:52.560 battle with the girl that was naked on Instagram, to 0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:55.760 do with all the jewelry on the system, with all 0:18:55.800 --> 0:18:58.040 the designers, do with all the designers, sit on the 0:18:58.119 --> 0:19:01.080 rapper the athlete. So I said, or something that nobody 0:19:01.119 --> 0:19:04.879 doing out here, nobody, and uh, but I'm gonna give 0:19:04.920 --> 0:19:07.200 it to you with a message, because you're gonna stop 0:19:07.240 --> 0:19:08.520 when you see me laying on the ground with the 0:19:08.600 --> 0:19:10.800 ketch up, You're gonna stop when you see me jumping 0:19:10.800 --> 0:19:12.560 off a roof. And then I'm gonna be at a 0:19:12.560 --> 0:19:14.520 poppet in that one minute and give you a message, 0:19:15.040 --> 0:19:17.879 you know, like once again, you know medicine and the candy. 0:19:18.359 --> 0:19:21.160 So it was like it wasn't no big, big plot 0:19:21.240 --> 0:19:23.600 of plan. It was just like I just was giving 0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:27.000 the message out, you know, and and it just was 0:19:27.080 --> 0:19:29.920 my natural me being me, Like I knew, and I 0:19:30.000 --> 0:19:33.800 knew that everybody out here was afraid to be themselves. 0:19:33.800 --> 0:19:36.199 So if you got people on Instagram really being yourself, 0:19:36.640 --> 0:19:38.480 really not worrying about how you look at me, I'm 0:19:38.480 --> 0:19:41.040 really not trying to impress you with things or man, 0:19:41.320 --> 0:19:44.120 you could kill shit. And that's what I did, you know, 0:19:44.480 --> 0:19:47.240 I just was I guess me was me, me naturally 0:19:47.280 --> 0:19:48.240 being me was marketing. 0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:50.840 Yeah, that's the fact. And I always tell people that's 0:19:50.880 --> 0:19:53.480 the best way. Like people ask, they ask, even me 0:19:53.560 --> 0:19:55.399 all the time, like you know, different tips. I'm like, 0:19:55.800 --> 0:19:57.719 you gotta be original me and Troy. I just had 0:19:57.720 --> 0:20:00.400 this conversation with somebody yesterday, like you gotta on your 0:20:00.440 --> 0:20:02.960 own lane. Like there's really no sept rhyme or reason 0:20:03.000 --> 0:20:05.879 or formula. It's like what works for you, Like this 0:20:05.960 --> 0:20:07.760 works for us, but what works for you. And I 0:20:07.760 --> 0:20:09.720 think a lot of times, especially with social media, everybody's 0:20:09.720 --> 0:20:13.160 trying to like duplicate what's already hot. And the problem 0:20:13.200 --> 0:20:15.199 is you're always running a race where you're behind somebody 0:20:15.240 --> 0:20:17.199 like you're following, and then it's like a turn. Now 0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:19.160 you gotta follow that turn. Now you gotta follow this turn. 0:20:19.240 --> 0:20:22.000 It's like, if you on your own path, you don't 0:20:22.000 --> 0:20:22.760 got to worry about. 0:20:22.600 --> 0:20:24.160 What you know. You know what's crazy. I was thinking 0:20:24.200 --> 0:20:25.720 about that ship and I was staying about to stay 0:20:25.720 --> 0:20:27.560 your own lane, and I realized was talking to a 0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:32.840 social mine, I said, I said, man, I'm coming to 0:20:32.880 --> 0:20:37.359 the conclusion that that whole mindset might be a little 0:20:37.400 --> 0:20:40.680 dated because we living in the world. Whereas though it's 0:20:41.800 --> 0:20:45.880 it's like you ever notice how you're driving. You got 0:20:45.920 --> 0:20:48.520 different lanes. You got this lane, you got the speed lane. 0:20:51.800 --> 0:20:55.400 If you're trying to get somewhere, you be banging all 0:20:55.440 --> 0:20:59.200 types of lanes. Speed lane, slow it up, of course, 0:20:59.200 --> 0:21:01.679 slow on the speed of you Like, I think you 0:21:01.720 --> 0:21:04.080 got to change lane. Sometimes you got because the way 0:21:04.080 --> 0:21:06.560 the game is and the way the culture of nown is, 0:21:07.000 --> 0:21:09.800 the culture now has changed so much. Whereas though, can 0:21:09.840 --> 0:21:11.600 you keep up with the speed of culture? You know, 0:21:11.680 --> 0:21:15.000 Troy Carter once said that, And that's the real reality 0:21:15.040 --> 0:21:18.560 of it is you might jump in the lane and 0:21:19.760 --> 0:21:22.320 you really might be multi talented, like you might be 0:21:22.359 --> 0:21:25.840 like that's just like tell the dude. Oh man, everybody 0:21:25.920 --> 0:21:28.840 might come up get their money someway, but everybody always 0:21:28.920 --> 0:21:31.840 preached real estate, real estate, real estate, real estate, real estate. 0:21:31.880 --> 0:21:33.600 All a billion of real estate. You know what I'm saying. 0:21:33.720 --> 0:21:36.080 All the billionaires got multiple revenute stay, all the billionaires 0:21:36.080 --> 0:21:38.400 got real estate. You know, the same old say shit 0:21:38.440 --> 0:21:41.280 you always hear you know what I'm saying, Like, so 0:21:41.320 --> 0:21:44.840 you have a dude that got the real estate. But 0:21:44.960 --> 0:21:47.439 at the same time he probably came up from a 0:21:47.520 --> 0:21:50.119 juice company, right, you got to do they got the 0:21:50.119 --> 0:21:52.520 real estate, same time he came up probably off of music. 0:21:52.600 --> 0:21:56.320 This dude athlete. This dude, uh might got restaurants. This 0:21:56.400 --> 0:21:59.639 dude might have gas, this dude might sell uh, you know, 0:22:00.119 --> 0:22:02.840 landscaping and stuff. So it's like, what do you know 0:22:02.880 --> 0:22:06.440 what I mean? It's like like people is getting but 0:22:06.600 --> 0:22:08.159 in the same chines see staying your lan did the 0:22:08.240 --> 0:22:11.240 same time they say, have multiple revenue streams. So it's like, 0:22:11.280 --> 0:22:13.359 what the fuck do you do? But just do what 0:22:13.400 --> 0:22:13.840 you feel. 0:22:13.920 --> 0:22:16.639 It's a million lanes man, But the kids to remain authentic. 0:22:16.720 --> 0:22:18.760 Even back to what I was saying, it was like 0:22:18.800 --> 0:22:21.280 somebody was asking us, like, yo, how do y'all do it, 0:22:21.320 --> 0:22:23.639 And it was like, well, we've been friends with twenty 0:22:23.640 --> 0:22:25.480 five plus years. It's not how do we do it, 0:22:25.480 --> 0:22:27.560 it's just naturally what we do. But I'm glad that 0:22:27.560 --> 0:22:31.320 you said that, like diversifying your mind right, because like 0:22:31.480 --> 0:22:32.960 you said, like if I stay in my one lane, 0:22:33.000 --> 0:22:35.119 like I'm a teacher, like people will only keep me 0:22:35.200 --> 0:22:36.920 in that lanes. Like when they hear me even talking 0:22:36.960 --> 0:22:39.400 about business, it's like you're not supposed to do that, 0:22:39.480 --> 0:22:41.520 Like you know that all those things it's like a 0:22:41.560 --> 0:22:44.239 shock to people. And then you get to diversify from 0:22:44.320 --> 0:22:46.200 this like yeah, I could do this, I could do this, 0:22:46.320 --> 0:22:47.440 and then you surprise yourself. 0:22:47.520 --> 0:22:49.600 You're like damn, like I really did that. 0:22:49.520 --> 0:22:51.280 Like you got to look at it, like I don't 0:22:51.320 --> 0:22:54.240 even try to you know, I don't even try to 0:22:54.280 --> 0:22:59.840 categorize myself because like you know what I mean advertise. 0:23:00.840 --> 0:23:03.640 You know what I'm saying, which is marketing for myself 0:23:03.640 --> 0:23:07.280 for brands or uh, you know, I do speaking engagements. 0:23:08.040 --> 0:23:10.200 You know what I'm saying. A host of a podcast. 0:23:11.200 --> 0:23:14.239 You know what I mean. I manufactur you merch. You 0:23:14.200 --> 0:23:16.040 know what I'm saying, I create you know, self merch, 0:23:17.960 --> 0:23:24.399 Like like what can no, no, you know, I don't know. 0:23:25.240 --> 0:23:27.040 But it's like, you know what I mean. But it's 0:23:27.080 --> 0:23:30.320 like at the same time, like what if I box myself? 0:23:30.720 --> 0:23:32.959 Yeah, now, for sure, you gotta you gotta leave all 0:23:32.960 --> 0:23:34.600 your options open. I just think you still you have 0:23:34.680 --> 0:23:37.880 to be authentic because a lot of times I think 0:23:37.920 --> 0:23:42.560 people are chasing something that they're not. That's what I 0:23:42.560 --> 0:23:44.280 mean by like chasing something like not chasing like in 0:23:44.320 --> 0:23:47.240 different direction, different lanes, but chasing like, Okay, this is 0:23:47.240 --> 0:23:49.399 the wave on Instagram. Comedian, I'm gonna be a comedian. 0:23:49.440 --> 0:23:51.240 I'm gonna be an Instagram comedian. Oh this is the 0:23:51.280 --> 0:23:54.360 wave on Instagram. I'm gonna do this. It's like it's 0:23:54.359 --> 0:23:55.080 not sustainable. 0:23:55.080 --> 0:23:58.359 But because it's like it's not, you're not comfortable with it. 0:23:58.400 --> 0:24:02.320 Like I'm comfortable with getting a fucking shut up, throwing 0:24:02.320 --> 0:24:03.960 the video or doing video. I'm cool with that. I 0:24:04.000 --> 0:24:06.680 do that ship in my sleep and I'm cool with that, 0:24:06.800 --> 0:24:08.800 you know what I mean. I don't. It's good when 0:24:08.800 --> 0:24:10.560 you can aspire people Like I've seen a lot of 0:24:10.560 --> 0:24:13.600 people come after me and wanted to do whatever they 0:24:13.640 --> 0:24:15.600 was doing, and I respected it. I don't feel no 0:24:15.680 --> 0:24:17.480 type of way I don't. They ain't got nothing to 0:24:17.520 --> 0:24:21.320 do with what I'm doing. You know, I guess you 0:24:21.440 --> 0:24:23.239 just you just you just see people and you just 0:24:23.280 --> 0:24:25.920 like I wish people could just I want people to win, 0:24:26.960 --> 0:24:29.600 and I wish they do find ay thing, you know, 0:24:30.200 --> 0:24:32.360 and it ain't never too late to figure it out. 0:24:33.080 --> 0:24:34.480 You can find that ship, you know what I mean. 0:24:34.520 --> 0:24:37.960 Like I just be like, I just be like going 0:24:38.000 --> 0:24:40.639 hard at what I know, and I'm always adding some 0:24:40.680 --> 0:24:42.160 new ship to my my arsenal. 0:24:42.320 --> 0:24:44.439 So one thing you told me outside, he was like 0:24:44.920 --> 0:24:48.040 when you was in Soho and you was walking around. 0:24:48.119 --> 0:24:48.960 He's like people. 0:24:49.000 --> 0:24:51.040 Most people when they they look at they look at 0:24:51.080 --> 0:24:52.960 the store, they look at that, They looking at the 0:24:53.040 --> 0:24:57.360 store's name. But you're looking like as a possible advertiser. 0:24:56.800 --> 0:24:58.520 Like I'm looking at I'm looking at I'm looking at 0:24:58.560 --> 0:25:01.840 it as they need advertisement. They could be a sponsor 0:25:01.920 --> 0:25:04.480 for a podcast, they could be a sponsor for event. 0:25:04.520 --> 0:25:07.600 They could be a sponsor for community, uh you know, 0:25:08.160 --> 0:25:10.760 give back or activate. Like that's how I see that. 0:25:10.840 --> 0:25:13.200 I don't see like I see things differently. When I 0:25:13.240 --> 0:25:15.720 see them, I'm like, okay, bang. But everything is about 0:25:15.720 --> 0:25:18.960 the introduction to that idea. A lot of times you 0:25:19.040 --> 0:25:22.359 have an idea, but if the introduction to that idea 0:25:22.440 --> 0:25:24.879 to who you're presenting it to don't grab them. I 0:25:24.880 --> 0:25:26.560 mean that's why a lot of times you see movies. 0:25:26.960 --> 0:25:29.239 As soon as the movie come on you, I mean, 0:25:29.240 --> 0:25:32.200 you see something happen in the car chase, somebody shot, 0:25:32.240 --> 0:25:35.119 somebody can't kill you hit the gun, and then they 0:25:35.160 --> 0:25:39.120 say six months earlier. But the that the introduction grabbed 0:25:39.119 --> 0:25:41.280 you made you see here, You're like, damn, I want 0:25:41.280 --> 0:25:43.760 to see what's still this? And sometimes it's for the 0:25:43.800 --> 0:25:47.320 big you know, everybody out here, man, all these businesses, 0:25:47.400 --> 0:25:50.199 they always looking for new ways to market, you know, 0:25:51.320 --> 0:25:54.720 because you know you got this technology. Everybody want to 0:25:54.720 --> 0:25:56.080 be a part of. Everybody want to be hip, they 0:25:56.119 --> 0:25:58.560 want to be cool, they want the followers. The big 0:25:58.560 --> 0:25:59.320 brands even. 0:25:59.119 --> 0:26:01.600 Do it like on social media is the new rock 0:26:01.640 --> 0:26:03.080 stars the influences for sure. 0:26:03.160 --> 0:26:04.560 So you got to try to figure out how can 0:26:04.560 --> 0:26:07.280 we partner? So how did that? How did that happen? 0:26:07.280 --> 0:26:08.760 Because I remember one thing you told me a while 0:26:08.760 --> 0:26:11.439 ago too, is like, don't always worry about like big 0:26:11.680 --> 0:26:13.959 brands and stuff like that. Like take like it might 0:26:14.000 --> 0:26:16.040 be a small mom and pop that wants to do 0:26:16.080 --> 0:26:17.800 an Instagram ad Like I tell people that all the time, 0:26:17.840 --> 0:26:20.159 especially when you're first starting out, But like, at what 0:26:20.280 --> 0:26:23.879 point did you transition to like bigger brands, Like did 0:26:23.920 --> 0:26:27.320 that just happen through relationships or did you reach out 0:26:27.320 --> 0:26:27.680 to them? 0:26:27.760 --> 0:26:30.560 Like how did that? In the game out here, everything 0:26:30.640 --> 0:26:33.400 goes off of relationships. It goes off for your your 0:26:33.440 --> 0:26:36.280 tracking out here, and then when you know, it goes 0:26:36.359 --> 0:26:40.040 off multiple things. But when you get hot, man, I'm 0:26:40.080 --> 0:26:41.800 telling you, man, you get hot out here, they come 0:26:41.840 --> 0:26:42.359 and looking for you. 0:26:43.000 --> 0:26:47.520 I mean, I wouldn't say climb. It was like, it's 0:26:47.520 --> 0:26:49.320 been two and a half years, right, so. 0:26:49.440 --> 0:26:52.280 It's been been actually thirty four months. 0:26:52.640 --> 0:26:54.640 So at what point? I mean, was it just hot 0:26:54.680 --> 0:26:59.399 from the start? Like people, what was the process it was? 0:26:59.520 --> 0:27:01.560 It was? It was it took time, Like all right, 0:27:02.200 --> 0:27:04.199 I was out of jail probably six months, and I uh, 0:27:05.480 --> 0:27:07.000 that was the first time I got to speaking a 0:27:07.080 --> 0:27:09.600 real serious speaking I think the first speaking check I 0:27:09.600 --> 0:27:16.040 got was like was it six hundred dollars?

You know what I'm saying, 0:47:28.360 --> 0:47:30.759 that's where you cake up off here. Ad Dallas is 0:47:30.800 --> 0:47:33.319 like this. A lot of people think the reality is 0:47:33.719 --> 0:47:40.600 it's over, Like what million podcasts? Yeah, it's close to 0:47:40.640 --> 0:47:44.600 a million podcasts. The one percent of podcasts is the 0:47:44.640 --> 0:47:48.080 ones that do like fifty thousand plus per episode. We're 0:47:48.120 --> 0:47:49.640 part of that one million dollars with a game is 0:47:49.680 --> 0:47:53.440 one part of that one percent out of the podcast industry. 0:47:53.040 --> 0:47:54.440 Per week or for a thirty day stretch. 0:47:54.680 --> 0:47:58.280 No, every time, we like like per episode, every episode, 0:47:58.280 --> 0:48:00.200 not just the week, like the episode because the week 0:48:00.239 --> 0:48:02.680 we might do something stupid, but the week you go crazy. 0:48:03.120 --> 0:48:04.759 But like each episode, you know what I mean, we 0:48:04.800 --> 0:48:07.279 fin that we're gonna do fifty, So it's like or 0:48:07.360 --> 0:48:09.960 more so it's like or number one joint did like 0:48:10.000 --> 0:48:12.799 one something one dred thousand y'all first showing that shit 0:48:13.120 --> 0:48:17.400 did crazy.
