- 0:15SPEAKER_00: So, how'd y'all feel when I invited y'all on the show or what when we uh got it together?
- 0:20SPEAKER_01: I mean, I was just I was surprised.
- 0:22SPEAKER_01: Like, I was just shot shoot my shot.
- 0:24SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I told Drew's, hey, we free on the 30th.
- 0:26SPEAKER_01: He's like, we're about to be.
- 0:27SPEAKER_03: So we were excited.
- 0:29SPEAKER_03: You know, we uh love to try to do as much different advertisement as we can.
- 0:33SPEAKER_03: So just whenever uh he told me about it, it was real uh exciting feeling, and then we told our other partner G about it.
- 0:40SPEAKER_03: So you know, we were all hyped up to be here today.
- 0:43SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that's what's up, man.
- 0:44SPEAKER_00: That's cool.
- 0:44SPEAKER_00: Y'all have uh it makes me think y'all have a business mindset already, and obviously y'all been other places promoting it.
- 0:50SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah.
- 0:50SPEAKER_00: And I've seen it a lot on Instagram already, because that's where I'm at primarily.
- 0:54SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so I mean it's it how do you find yourself continuing to market that you're so this is a new drop, right?
- 0:59SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:00SPEAKER_00: The trap juice, what y'all doing?
- 1:01SPEAKER_00: Yeah, uh before that.
- 1:03SPEAKER_00: So you do well, you have products already, and you have products already.
- 1:06SPEAKER_00: How do you find yourself marketing those products as opposed to this one?
- 1:12SPEAKER_03: So really everything just kind of like combines in together as far as like um me and my uh business partner G, we own Andy Eats as well.
- 1:21SPEAKER_03: So uh the trap juice is like one of the drinks that we sell on there.
- 1:26SPEAKER_03: Um, a lot of the customers uh that have been getting it have been liking it, so they kind of come to us and hey, do y'all got the trap juice?
- 1:33SPEAKER_03: So um it's kind of definitely a good cross promo uh to bring in that as far as like uh item that people could drink.
- 1:40SPEAKER_03: Um, and then just such as like Candy Andy, these drinks um they're limited, so you can't just find them in any store.
- 1:46SPEAKER_03: We're trying to get them into select stores, you know.
- 1:48SPEAKER_03: Uh that's the main key thing is try to keep it exclusive as possible, but make it to people's advantage to where they could grab them.
- 1:56SPEAKER_00: Right on, right on.
- 1:57SPEAKER_00: Uh and to be honest, uh I heard about there was another guy in town doing them, I can't remember his name, but that y'all are doing them as well.
- 2:03SPEAKER_00: But he's like more of a street dude or it was the schizo, right?
- 2:05SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah, that guy, yeah.
- 2:07SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and then I seen y'all, so I'm like, what is this stuff?
- 2:09SPEAKER_00: Because I'm dude, I live under a rock, bro.
- 2:11SPEAKER_00: I really don't know what's going on in the culture or nothing like that.
- 2:14SPEAKER_00: So this is all new to me, man.
- 2:15SPEAKER_00: And when I see that, I'm like, it seems like it's like uh I it reminds me of like making Kool-Aid back in the day, putting a bunch of sugar in there.
- 2:23SPEAKER_00: Is that what this is?
- 2:23SPEAKER_01: Or what basically the same ingredients, but basically it's just like what I've learned, uh, because like I love cooking, I love cooking making snacks, that's why the candy came out of it.
- 2:32SPEAKER_01: The drinks kind of came out on accident because I know everybody's like heard of like exotic pop and stuff like that.
- 2:38SPEAKER_01: So I used to partner with them, I used to sell for them, be a vendor with them, go to the warehouse, and we used to hang out and just do a lot of events together.
- 2:45SPEAKER_01: But I've been why I always wanted to do the drinks because with them they always sold sodas.
- 2:49SPEAKER_01: And the thing is, like what I've learned is like a lot of parents want to pay for kids that have sodas, like they're like, Hey, yeah, water juice or whatever.
- 2:55SPEAKER_01: So what I did was like, you know what?
- 2:56SPEAKER_01: Let me buy a case from them.
- 2:57SPEAKER_01: They're always selling out, and they're like, Yeah, man, everybody wants to buy them.
- 3:00SPEAKER_01: So what I did was like, well, then I was just gonna make it myself.
- 3:03SPEAKER_01: And then it kind of went from there.
- 3:05SPEAKER_01: I did 30 bottles one day, sold down in like 30 minutes, and it was like my first event.
- 3:10SPEAKER_01: I said, Damn, okay, that's a good turnout.
- 3:12SPEAKER_01: So then, but this was like three years ago.
- 3:14SPEAKER_01: This is when I lived in Houston.
- 3:15SPEAKER_01: And I came over here, I I met Drew and I kind of like I introduced the candy to him.
- 3:19SPEAKER_01: I was like, hey bro, I got this candy.
- 3:20SPEAKER_01: He's like, Yeah, we'll sell it at the shop.
- 3:22SPEAKER_01: And then I was like, Hey, I know this idea about these drinks.
- 3:24SPEAKER_01: Like, I used to do them, I was like, Let's bring it out.
- 3:26SPEAKER_01: He's like, Yeah, yeah, let's make some, let's test it out.
- 3:28SPEAKER_01: So I was like, All right, I got you.
- 3:30SPEAKER_03: He was he had just opened up the food truck and he brought a sample, like a couple of them, and you know, me and G and the other couple people that were on the trailer tried them out, and and dude, like just you know, I'm not even trying to just hype it up, but just from trying it, I was just like mind-blown.
- 3:43SPEAKER_03: Like, I was like, Man, dude, this juice needs to be out there, like, you know, it it could be labeled, you know, with the with a tight, um, definitely like a cool, outstanding label that just attracts people and just brings people more into the brand and stuff.
- 3:57SPEAKER_03: So, you know, I got with G about everything, and you know, me and him were both interested in partnering up with Zay and you know, making this thing kind of go further than what it is.
- 4:06SPEAKER_03: And we're just getting started.
- 4:07SPEAKER_03: There's only been like a month of production with all three of us, so there's definitely more uh that's gonna be happening, especially for the summertime and from here on out.
- 4:16SPEAKER_03: This is just like our uh our beginning stage, I say level one of trying to level up, but we definitely got a lot of work and a lot of structure to do um as far as trying to get the brand and the business out there.
- 4:27SPEAKER_00: That's cool, man.
- 4:28SPEAKER_00: Jay Bustos from Facebook, Francesca on YouTube, what's going on?
- 4:32SPEAKER_00: Hell sing on Twitch, appreciate y'all, man.
- 4:34SPEAKER_00: Wow, that's awesome.
- 4:35SPEAKER_00: So you just started the food trek or okay.
- 4:37SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah.
- 4:38SPEAKER_03: So uh the way we started that, um I've been knowing G uh for a couple months already, probably uh last year, 20 uh 23, I'd say, and I kind of brought it to his attention about partnering up and um just trying to do um something together.
- 4:55SPEAKER_03: And uh G.
- 4:57SPEAKER_03: G.
- 4:57SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 4:58SPEAKER_03: So uh I kind of just you know approached him with, you know, I had this idea and he was all for it, you know, kind of believed in what I wanted to do, and you know, we attacked it together, and you know, he was like, bro, I'm gonna get this thing done in less than two weeks, three weeks.
- 5:14SPEAKER_03: I think we had it done within less than three, I want to say we were up and running, got all the permits and stuff.
- 5:18SPEAKER_03: Um, there was some little hiccups of certain things that needed to be fixed, but we were able to do everything, and within the fourth week, we were able to open, and um, I think we've been running it pretty good for about two months already.
- 5:32SPEAKER_03: Uh about a month and a half, I want to say.
- 5:34SPEAKER_03: So uh definitely been doing a lot of events, food truck festival.
- 5:38SPEAKER_03: Uh we had the art walk.
- 5:39SPEAKER_03: This will be our second time this coming Friday at the Art Walk downtown.
- 5:43SPEAKER_03: Um, so we've just been trying to just stay active.
- 5:46SPEAKER_03: We uh partnered up with the smoke shop too.
- 5:48SPEAKER_03: So we got a smoke shop, uh Smoke City.
- 5:50SPEAKER_03: Um is also my business partner on that, and then Candy Andy.
- 5:53SPEAKER_00: Nice, man.

- 6:00SPEAKER_03: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 6:01SPEAKER_03: I didn't I didn't even go to regular high school.
- 6:03SPEAKER_03: So uh went to uh RMA all four years, and you know, um I do music too, so I'm kind of just in the music scene and uh I haven't really done nothing lately, but I do plan on you know coming back out and dropping some more music and stuff, so um definitely something that's gonna you know help out with the with the Jews.
- 6:22SPEAKER_03: So whenever we do shows, do pop-up events.
- 6:25SPEAKER_03: We actually have a big pop-up event coming up.
- 6:27SPEAKER_03: Yeah, when is it?
- 6:28SPEAKER_01: Uh May 11th.
- 6:29SPEAKER_01: It kind of was uh it's kind of like an accident, really.
- 6:32SPEAKER_01: I uh I try to like set it up, but um, because I know everybody knows that Mexican OT, right?
- 6:37SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 6:37SPEAKER_01: I mean he's blown up, but I've been friends with him for a while, like it ain't like a fan type of thing.
- 6:42SPEAKER_01: It's like we we started in Houston Scale, like when he first won his first contest.
- 6:46SPEAKER_01: I was there as like a fan.
- 6:47SPEAKER_01: I was trying to know everybody, and it kind of grew because I was interested in him because he was a different guy.
- 6:52SPEAKER_01: And ever since then, I got connected with his managers and stuff like that.
- 6:55SPEAKER_01: And today I was like, man, I'm gonna shoot my shot too.
- 6:57SPEAKER_01: I called the manager, I was like, hey bros, like I know y'all need vendors.
- 7:01SPEAKER_01: I was like, we don't really have a good setup.
- 7:03SPEAKER_01: I was like, shit, we just got a tablecloth and a sign.
- 7:07SPEAKER_01: I think we could post.
- 7:08SPEAKER_01: I'll bring a cooler, bring probably like a hundred bottles out there just trying to sell out and just have a good time.
- 7:13SPEAKER_01: And he's like, Yeah, he's like, get with CJ, which is one of his one of his people on his team.
- 7:17SPEAKER_01: I texted him, shot him, he showed him back in like 30 minutes.
- 7:20SPEAKER_01: He's like, Yeah, bro, he was like, Come on the tents, come sign the contract, and then come post up.
- 7:24SPEAKER_01: And I was like, Oh shit.
- 7:25SPEAKER_01: I was like, All right, I guess we're gonna be at the concert.
- 7:27SPEAKER_00: So and that's here in town.
- 7:29SPEAKER_00: Where's it at?
- 7:30SPEAKER_00: It's in Bay City.
- 7:31SPEAKER_00: Oh, Bay City, yeah.
- 7:32SPEAKER_01: Because he's he's blowing up too, so he's showing love back to his people.
- 7:36SPEAKER_01: So it's at Matagorda Fairgrounds, like in Bay City.
- 7:38SPEAKER_01: Okay, so he's gonna have like a rodeo and stuff.
- 7:40SPEAKER_01: Like, I already been seen, like we were just gonna go to like go to the show and just have a good time.
- 7:44SPEAKER_01: But I was like, Man, you know what?
- 7:45SPEAKER_01: They're doing a vendor spot.
- 7:46SPEAKER_01: I already do stuff with them, I've hosted shows with them.
- 7:49SPEAKER_01: I've I've been from the beginning before he was Johnny Dang holding a chicken, like I've seen that from the beginning.
- 7:55SPEAKER_01: Wow, and him as a person, he's a very good person.
- 7:57SPEAKER_01: And so I was like, you know, he's gonna be a good artist.
- 7:59SPEAKER_01: Not even to promote this, but he does love like the blue drinks we got.
- 8:03SPEAKER_01: But if I just we just like show love to him, they reciprocate all the time and just show love.
- 8:07SPEAKER_01: Because when they came into town for at Brewster, I think it was a few months ago.
- 8:10SPEAKER_01: I mean, I was there with them too.
- 8:12SPEAKER_01: We had a good time, and then I was like, hey, until next time, we'll see what we can do.
- 8:16SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so man, dude, what's it at, man?
- 8:19SPEAKER_00: Right here?
- 8:21SPEAKER_00: Here you show it to him.
- 8:24SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so wow, dude.
- 8:26SPEAKER_00: So you so you had that show, go ahead and show it.
- 8:29SPEAKER_00: That's the trap juice, y'all.
- 8:30SPEAKER_01: Yeah, this was the blue raspberry lemonade.
- 8:32SPEAKER_01: This is gonna be the new one that we dropped.
- 8:34SPEAKER_01: That's kind of crazy.
- 8:35SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that's uh so I saw that trap syrup.
- 8:37SPEAKER_03: Yeah, nice that's the Texas, Texas tea, Texas tea, baby.
- 8:42SPEAKER_03: Come on, that's what we gotta call it.
- 8:44SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that's what's up, dude.
- 8:45SPEAKER_00: Wow, so you had that connection, and you just like man, dude, that's crazy because you could you couldn't have said nothing at all and just went to the show.
- 8:52SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but are you honestly if we would have gone to the show either way?
- 8:54SPEAKER_01: I would have brought like same thing, four bottles of candy, and it would have been straight.
- 8:58SPEAKER_01: That would have showed love to them.
- 8:59SPEAKER_01: But I was, you know what, I'll still do that, but this just helps us spread the name and you know make some money while we're at it.
- 9:05SPEAKER_01: Yeah, hell yeah.
- 9:06SPEAKER_01: You know, that's just helps us out.
- 9:07SPEAKER_01: But either way, we're just have a good time.
- 9:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah, for sure.
- 9:11SPEAKER_01: This type of job that I've learned, me doing as myself with the candy and everything, it opened doors to meeting people.
- 9:16SPEAKER_01: I've met artists, I've I've worked with Dope House, I've worked with a lot of people, and um they've always showed love, and that's all it is.
- 9:22SPEAKER_01: Like a lot of people see it on social media and like mainstream stuff, and and there's there's always rumors and talk about a lot of stuff that goes on, but I was there.
- 9:29SPEAKER_01: I I've I've been there, I've talked to managers.
- 9:32SPEAKER_01: I've I've I know like Andy Yola from Dope House, like they're real good people.
- 9:36SPEAKER_01: I've never had any problems with anybody, we always just clicked because we're just good people, yeah.
- 9:41SPEAKER_00: So you purposefully put yourself in that circle, yeah.
- 9:44SPEAKER_00: And so were you making candy at the time?
- 9:45SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's all I was so solely doing that because like of course when I started this business, it was in 2020, it was mid-COVID, and I was working at Team Mobile, and yeah, I was I make decent money there.
- 9:55SPEAKER_01: Like you're selling, of course, anything that sells, you make decent money, right?
- 9:58SPEAKER_01: So me talking to people was already natural, that's easy.
- 10:01SPEAKER_01: But when it came to the candy, I saw it on TikTok, it was blowing up, everybody's making these gushers and stuff.
- 10:07SPEAKER_00: I'll take and packaging them all right and setting them out and stuff like that.
- 10:10SPEAKER_01: Man, this was in 2020, but I was like, man, there's no way that they're just buying simple chamoy and tahine from the store and like making candy, it's not always gonna be that good.
- 10:18SPEAKER_01: So anytime I see something like that, I'm like, you know, I'm gonna make it myself, I'm gonna throw my little spin on it.
- 10:22SPEAKER_01: So what I did was I took like a couple weeks, I'll buy the little ingredients, I'll make little batches here and there, take it to work.
- 10:27SPEAKER_01: And then one one of my employees or uh like co-workers, he's he's a white dude.
- 10:32SPEAKER_01: He don't like any of that.
- 10:33SPEAKER_01: He tried it, he goes, Dude, this shit's good.
- 10:36SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 10:36SPEAKER_01: So all I did was I throw my spin on it, and he's like, bro, I would buy this if you sold it.
- 10:40SPEAKER_01: I was like, Stop playing.
- 10:41SPEAKER_01: So what I did was I bought the packaging, I bought like a hundred bags, yeah, and flipped them for like 10 bucks a bag, and that was history.
- 10:48SPEAKER_00: These dulces, all right, in the house.
- 10:50SPEAKER_00: Candy Andy's also in the house, too, bro.
- 10:52SPEAKER_00: I went to your spot the first time yesterday.
- 10:55SPEAKER_00: It's been there forever.
- 10:56SPEAKER_00: Like I said, I live under a rock, bro.
- 10:58SPEAKER_00: I just go from my house to work, go back, that's it.
- 11:00SPEAKER_00: I don't talk to nobody.
- 11:01SPEAKER_00: This so this podcast, what I'm doing is pretty cool.
- 11:03SPEAKER_00: I get to figure out who everybody's who everybody is doing.
- 11:06SPEAKER_00: What everyone's doing.
- 11:06SPEAKER_00: So, dude, my my wife got the drippy, was it drippy drizzle?
- 11:11SPEAKER_03: Drippy Drizzle, and then we wrapped in the fruit by the foot, which amoy tahim, gummy bears, gummy worms, sausages.
- 11:18SPEAKER_03: One of the uh top top three, I think I'd say top three items that we got.
- 11:22SPEAKER_00: What I wanted to say, bro, I I asked for a taste because my wife got it.
- 11:26SPEAKER_00: I was like, let me taste that the pickle with the wrap-on around it, right?
- 11:29SPEAKER_00: And I tasted it, and I was like, man, and I told her, I was like, dude, this took me back to freaking grandma's house in La Quare, bro.
- 11:36SPEAKER_00: For real.
- 11:37SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah.
- 11:38SPEAKER_00: Dude, I was like, damn, this is a straight up hood, hood candy, bro.
- 11:42SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that's awesome, man.
- 11:44SPEAKER_03: Definitely.
- 11:44SPEAKER_00: And uh, and you're the owner or the previous owner just passed away, yeah?
- 11:48SPEAKER_03: Yeah, my dad.
- 11:48SPEAKER_03: Uh oh, that's your dad?
- 11:50SPEAKER_03: Oh, dude, sorry, you're there.
- 11:51SPEAKER_03: Yeah, um, we were actually um started up all the businesses about uh six six years ago.
- 11:59SPEAKER_03: Uh we started up in the Corpus Chrissie Trade Center.
- 12:02SPEAKER_03: Um, so back whenever I was 11, I went and buy Baby Boy, uh, did music, um, started up like a little clothing line with Baby Boy.
- 12:10SPEAKER_03: Um, I was going to like skating rinks.
- 12:12SPEAKER_03: We were selling out on merch, uh, bracelets, keychains, uh t-shirts, towels, uh, pillows.
- 12:19SPEAKER_03: Um, so my dad wanted to open up something in the Trade Center.
- 12:23SPEAKER_03: As I got older, um we as I got older, he he threw the idea of like, man, we should order some some pieces.
- 12:32SPEAKER_03: Like, I think I was like 18 or 19.
- 12:35SPEAKER_03: Whenever he said pieces, he meant like glass pieces, like, you know, tobacco pipes.
- 12:39SPEAKER_03: And so I was like, man, that ain't gonna sell.
- 12:41SPEAKER_03: And you know, uh, I think he we started with just something small, and then we ended up expanding.
- 12:46SPEAKER_03: Then we took the back uh where ijazz is actually, and we ended up like having like seven or eight different counters with the walls like you know with different things on them.
- 12:55SPEAKER_03: So then we went from having that to having another one.
- 12:58SPEAKER_03: Then it took me, I was working a normal job at the time.
- 13:01SPEAKER_03: So I told him, I said, Man, I want to open up a spot, and that's a spot right next to Candy Andy.
- 13:06SPEAKER_03: So that was six years ago.
- 13:07SPEAKER_03: We opened up that, and then about three years into that, we ended up getting Candy Andy.
- 13:11SPEAKER_03: Candy Andy's been around for about two years, I want to say.
- 13:14SPEAKER_03: In December, it'll be three.
- 13:16SPEAKER_00: Oh, man, that's awesome.
- 13:17SPEAKER_03: Yes, sir.
- 13:18SPEAKER_00: That's cool.
- 13:19SPEAKER_00: So, what's some of the things you learned from your dad?
- 13:21SPEAKER_03: Uh, just business.
- 13:22SPEAKER_03: Uh, he taught me a lot, you know, basically everything I know.
- 13:26SPEAKER_03: I'm 26 years old.
- 13:28SPEAKER_03: Um, we had two smoke shops, uh, Candy Andy, and um just kind of understanding the fundamentals of everything on how a business is supposed to, I wouldn't say really properly run, because there is some things that I still don't know and that I'm still learning to this day.
- 13:42SPEAKER_03: And if somebody like has anything to try to like teach me, I take in everything.
- 13:47SPEAKER_03: I don't try to like disclose or like any any type of information or anything.
- 13:51SPEAKER_03: I want to learn as much as possible to help me be a better me at the end of the day.
- 13:55SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that's awesome, man.
- 13:56SPEAKER_00: Yeah, when I used to like research people like online and stuff, I'll read the Wikipedia article and they would mention their parents.
- 14:03SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 14:03SPEAKER_00: And I'm like, why do you do that?
- 14:04SPEAKER_00: I'm trying to learn about this guy.
- 14:06SPEAKER_00: But no, you have to look at the parents to figure out.
- 14:09SPEAKER_03: And see, like my my dad, his dad didn't have a smoke shop, like, or my grandma didn't have a smoke shop.
- 14:16SPEAKER_03: My my grandma was working at a nursing home, and my dad's uh dad passed away whenever he was younger.
- 14:22SPEAKER_03: So um really it just came between me and him, like just you know, hey, I think we should do this.
- 14:28SPEAKER_03: And you know, one thing that a lot of people don't know is I didn't even graduate high school.
- 14:32SPEAKER_03: Wow, you know what I'm saying?
- 14:33SPEAKER_03: So um, I mean, of course, it's not something that you know I'm proud of or that I like to brag about, but that's like one of the things that you know my friends trip out on.
- 14:42SPEAKER_03: They're like, dude, like you're look at how suc uh successful you are, like you know, you're doing all these different things, and you know, it just kind of took me like I didn't want to work at Domino's, I didn't want to work at Taco Bell or you know, any of these fast food restaurants all my life.
- 14:57SPEAKER_03: I wanted to better myself, and in order to better myself, I had to figure out a way.
- 15:01SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you gotta figure it out, man.
- 15:03SPEAKER_00: Wow, that's amazing to me, man.
- 15:04SPEAKER_00: Because like people could be in your situation and not have graduated and they can use it excuses, bro.
- 15:09SPEAKER_00: Yeah, we can have excuses, but no.
- 15:11SPEAKER_03: At the end of the day, you gotta figure figure shit out.
- 15:14SPEAKER_03: It's like the way I tell people like in order to grow and keep going, you gotta figure something out and figure out a way.
- 15:19SPEAKER_03: Yeah, um, that's the only way that you'll end up furthering your life or getting any type of further than where you're at already.
- 15:26SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and I'm a huge advocate of uh actually the father being in the home too, and your dad was around too.
- 15:31SPEAKER_00: So I would say that he he spoke into your own.
- 15:34SPEAKER_03: Yeah, my dad wasn't just my dad, he was my best friend.
- 15:36SPEAKER_03: Um, you know, there was moments where you know he had to be my dad, but at the same time, like our relationship wasn't just like a regular son, son and dad relationship.
- 15:46SPEAKER_03: Like I was just super close to him.
- 15:48SPEAKER_03: My dad was on dialysis, uh he had heart problems and stuff, so it it it kind of took a toll on me once everything started like knuckling down and stuff, like to his health.
- 15:58SPEAKER_03: And you know, I was doing music, so he was a big, big uh supporter on my music.
- 16:02SPEAKER_03: Whenever I came out with something, he was right there supporting me.
- 16:05SPEAKER_03: Uh, whenever I wanted to do uh, I actually did a song two years ago with Dusty Um called Medication, and my dad was the one that made that happen.
- 16:14SPEAKER_03: You know, booked me the studio session, paid for the video, and you know, he actually put the money behind me and stuff.
- 16:20SPEAKER_03: So you know, it was definitely a bet a blessing.
- 16:22SPEAKER_03: And you know, if if I could learn anything from that, like if you have you know your mom and dad or you know, someone close nearby you like tell them you love them because tomorrow's not promised.
- 16:31SPEAKER_00: Right on, man.
- 16:32SPEAKER_00: Yeah, shout out Dusty Man.
- 16:34SPEAKER_00: This is the studio that I'm using.
- 16:35SPEAKER_00: I'm renting it out for my podcast.
- 16:37SPEAKER_00: You guys got a podcast?
- 16:39SPEAKER_00: You need a studio?
- 16:40SPEAKER_00: Here it is, right here.
- 16:41SPEAKER_00: Hit them up.
- 16:43SPEAKER_00: Man, that's amazing, bro.
- 16:44SPEAKER_00: I really like that the background story of somebody and figuring out, and then obviously you're already on the way to what you're doing now with this, and then with your music, you're still producing or creative music and stuff like that.
- 16:54SPEAKER_03: I got more music coming out this summer.
- 16:56SPEAKER_03: Um, just kind of with music, you gotta have a plan, you gotta have some type of structure behind your plan.
- 17:01SPEAKER_03: So um, to me, I just don't want to come out and just release a song on YouTube.
- 17:05SPEAKER_03: Like, I want to actually have some type of plan behind it.
- 17:08SPEAKER_03: Um my main focus right now is to try to open up different things and just kind of get them to, you know, kind of grow and you know, get people onto it.
- 17:18SPEAKER_03: Like uh with the trap juice being linking up with Zay, I saw uh, you know, a lot of interest in Zay being motivated into something, and you know, me and Zay just connected, so I think it was a blessing.
- 17:28SPEAKER_01: How did y'all meet anyway?
- 17:29SPEAKER_01: Uh it was an accident.
- 17:31SPEAKER_01: Oh, no kidding.
- 17:32SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 17:33SPEAKER_01: Oh, kind of okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna take it back a little bit because okay, so I moved here uh in the end of 22, like July of 22.
- 17:40SPEAKER_01: So I've been here for almost two years now.
- 17:42SPEAKER_01: Um I knew about Drew only because like when I moved out here, the lower car show that's at American Bank Center, he was performing at it.
- 17:49SPEAKER_04: Oh, nice.
- 17:50SPEAKER_01: And I knew who he was.
- 17:51SPEAKER_01: Uh my friends that are my sister, um, she kind of like showed me around a little bit, but then she had a friend um that turns in turns up to me and my girlfriend.
- 18:00SPEAKER_00: You got a good one, bro.
- 18:01SPEAKER_01: She was on episode number five.
- 18:03SPEAKER_01: Yes, yeah, don't mess it on up, bro.
- 18:05SPEAKER_01: Don't mess it up, bro.
- 18:06SPEAKER_01: That's I was bringing it up.
- 18:06SPEAKER_01: I was bringing it up because of that.
- 18:07SPEAKER_01: And then I think it's funny because that situation where like it kind of tied into you.
- 18:12SPEAKER_01: And I she sent me that podcast.
- 18:14SPEAKER_01: I sent her a podcast I was on to, or like an interview that was on the radio, and she's like, Yeah, I was on one too.
- 18:18SPEAKER_01: So I was watching it, and I was like, Oh, okay.
- 18:20SPEAKER_01: And so, like, coincidentally, like, I already had followed you on TikTok and Instagram, so I was I already knew.
- 18:24SPEAKER_01: And then with Drew, it kind of like I knew who he was, but then at the time, yeah, his dad got sick, and I don't it's not that I didn't want to be around it, it's just I knew that he was going through some things like personally.
- 18:33SPEAKER_01: I didn't want to like bring him something that didn't like wasn't gonna work if he wasn't gonna put his mind to it.
- 18:38SPEAKER_01: Wow, so I gave him time and I knew that just because like I know friends that I've been with, or even like you lose somebody that you love and that you like are your best friend with, I don't want to like burden you with something else, like that's not what I'm trying to do.
- 18:49SPEAKER_01: So I gave so I slowly stepped in.
- 18:51SPEAKER_01: I was like, Hey, I got this candy, cool, took it off, and I was like, Hey, I got this too.
- 18:55SPEAKER_01: That's why that got introduced, and then like the the funny story is like my girlfriend did your podcast, and then she actually, and when she was in like middle school, he performed at the middle school, so like that's why it's a big like coincidence of everything because she would have like, you know, you was baby boy.
- 19:12SPEAKER_01: I was like, I don't even know who that is, and then that's how we got tied into that, and I told him the story, and then we told she told him the story, and I was like, Well, Corbis is small, so I guess everybody knows somebody, and that's why I like but honestly, she supports a lot like what we do.
- 19:26SPEAKER_01: Like, we need to go, we're we're out late some nights because we're at the food truck or something, and she really does help out a lot.
- 19:31SPEAKER_01: Like, you're not she wanted to come, but her job, she works, she really works a really good job.
- 19:34SPEAKER_01: She's a social worker, so she's always like she did get a job in that, and that's cool.
- 19:37SPEAKER_01: She uh she actually worked at drug school, she just she finally got licensed.
- 19:40SPEAKER_01: So, like when she did your thing, she was still in school, yeah.
- 19:42SPEAKER_01: So she finally finished, she got her master's and everything.
- 19:45SPEAKER_00: She was telling me all about it was like, Man, I hope we get a job in it.
- 19:47SPEAKER_00: She got a job in it, bro.
- 19:48SPEAKER_01: Yeah, now she honestly, if we put out numbers, she's probably make more money than I do some days.
- 19:52SPEAKER_01: Um the children, children.
- 19:54SPEAKER_01: Yeah, she's a social worker there, and then she goes through a lot there, but she's strong for doing that.
- 19:59SPEAKER_01: That's why like she does that, and if she wants to come hang out with us, that's on her time.
- 20:03SPEAKER_01: I'm not gonna force her to come out because some nights we're out to like two in the morning.
- 20:06SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and sometimes it's business, sometimes it's like, okay, we're trying to relax because like we've been working all week or something.
- 20:10SPEAKER_01: But her, she's she goes through a lot every day.
- 20:12SPEAKER_01: She's off, she has a schedule from 8 to 4:30.
- 20:15SPEAKER_01: Yep, and that's what she does.
- 20:16SPEAKER_01: Some days she stays till 5, maybe even 5 30, depending on like if something happens, or she'll pick up shift, she'll work from 8 8 p.m.
- 20:22SPEAKER_01: to 2 a.m.
- 20:23SPEAKER_01: or short 10 to 10.
- 20:24SPEAKER_01: But she's she's always there, she always helps us out a lot.
- 20:27SPEAKER_00: So yeah, so what you're so what you're doing like uh with your candy and all and this stuff, is it your side hustle or you got it?
- 20:33SPEAKER_00: Oh, it's it's so it's not hustle.
- 20:35SPEAKER_01: Right now, but we're gonna make it into the main hustle.
- 20:37SPEAKER_01: Because like as much as I love I love doing this, I love the drinks.
- 20:40SPEAKER_01: My secret, or not my secret, just the main thing I love to do is cook.
- 20:42SPEAKER_01: I love cooking.
- 20:43SPEAKER_01: I've cooked for Jury twice.
- 20:44SPEAKER_00: Oh, you were talking about I saw your post earlier.
- 20:46SPEAKER_00: What was it about?
- 20:47SPEAKER_00: Yeah, tacos.
- 20:49SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I think the tacos are fire.
- 20:51SPEAKER_03: The case of the was fire last time, yeah.
- 20:53SPEAKER_03: I was stuffed.
- 20:54SPEAKER_03: He was like, Man, bro, you gotta try my mom's rice.
- 20:56SPEAKER_03: I'm like, I eat no more.
- 20:57SPEAKER_01: Like, like my mom, my mom was like one of my like as much as his dad's very close, when me and my mom are close.
- 21:01SPEAKER_01: Like she taught me how to cook very young age.
- 21:05SPEAKER_03: Oh, yeah.
- 21:06SPEAKER_01: Anytime, like, because as my story is like I mean, I just met my dad when I was 21.
- 21:10SPEAKER_01: So he's from Corpus.
- 21:11SPEAKER_01: And my mom moved me to Houston.
- 21:13SPEAKER_01: I was younger, so I didn't know who he was until when I turned 21.
- 21:15SPEAKER_01: I finally asked my mom, like, who's my dad?
- 21:17SPEAKER_01: What does he look like?
- 21:18SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 21:19SPEAKER_01: I met him like probably like a week later.
- 21:20SPEAKER_01: I came to Corpus.
- 21:21SPEAKER_01: I was here for a weekend, introduced, and like we're completely opposite different people.
- 21:26SPEAKER_01: He's very, you know, grow up straight, you know, thugged out.
- 21:29SPEAKER_01: And it's as much as it's a joke, it's more of like that's just how he was raised, and that's that's fine.
- 21:33SPEAKER_01: I don't judge anybody how they are.
- 21:35SPEAKER_01: But my mom too, she was a thug too back in the day.
- 21:38SPEAKER_01: She got better.
- 21:39SPEAKER_01: But at one point in my life, it was it was kind of hard because both parents were locked up.
- 21:43SPEAKER_01: So, like for from like 20, like 2019 to just maybe last year, I had barely got both my parents.
- 21:49SPEAKER_01: And then that's where I was like, Oh, okay, now it's like a normal life.
- 21:51SPEAKER_01: So now I'm trying to like better myself and learn from them.
- 21:55SPEAKER_01: Not to be better than them, but just like show them like that little stigma where like, oh, your parents are.
- 22:00SPEAKER_01: House, like you're gonna do drugs, sell drugs, and be a bad life.
- 22:03SPEAKER_01: Like, I never once did that.
- 22:04SPEAKER_01: I graduated high school, I didn't go to school because I felt like if you can create something and make money the way that you love to do, because everybody always says you if you love something and you get paid to do it, it's not really a job.
- 22:13SPEAKER_01: You just you just do it.
- 22:15SPEAKER_00: So you've always you've always had some type of huckle, yeah.
- 22:17SPEAKER_01: Always, even like in school.
- 22:18SPEAKER_01: Like, honestly, my mom, my mom used to work at a corner store and they never had cameras.
- 22:23SPEAKER_01: So she's like, go grab some snacks.
- 22:24SPEAKER_01: So, what I would do is I used to go grab like you know the five gum.
- 22:27SPEAKER_01: So they used to have like five different flavors.
- 22:29SPEAKER_01: I would take like like three or four flavors of each one or three packs of each flavor.
- 22:32SPEAKER_01: I'll take it to school and I'll sell them for like four bucks a pack.
- 22:36SPEAKER_01: And then, or like we'll go to Sam's and we'll be like the little like the snacks and everything.
- 22:40SPEAKER_01: I'll flip them at school.
- 22:41SPEAKER_01: So I would always like my mom was always saying, like, I'm not gonna give you money for like for random shit.
- 22:45SPEAKER_01: So I was like, all right, cool.
- 22:46SPEAKER_01: I was like, I'll make more money.
- 22:47SPEAKER_01: So what what I would do is I'll go to the store, I'll spend like 30 bucks, and I'll flip it out every every day after school, I'll be making like 30-40 bucks, and I'll just re-up it like that.
- 22:56SPEAKER_01: So that's how I learned, and then as I got older, I just turned other things.
- 22:59SPEAKER_00: So damn dude, that's awesome.
- 23:01SPEAKER_00: That's amazing to me.
- 23:02SPEAKER_00: Like, cause you because I'm in school, I'm not thinking about none of it, bro.
- 23:06SPEAKER_00: Nah, I'm not like I play guitar, like I just want to get home and play the guitar.
- 23:10SPEAKER_00: That was my thing, yeah.
- 23:11SPEAKER_00: But you're thinking about how to make money.
- 23:13SPEAKER_01: Because the way it was, because I learned from like how this uh, what is it?
- 23:16SPEAKER_01: I think it was like wildlife or something like that.
- 23:17SPEAKER_01: Like you shot BB guns, and right.
- 23:19SPEAKER_01: I mean, I went to school like in like the country, so it's like you were teaching how to shoot a gun, how to like kill a fish and stuff like that.
- 23:26SPEAKER_01: And he would sell snacks and stuff.
- 23:28SPEAKER_01: And I was like, man, what if I brought better snacks?
- 23:30SPEAKER_01: He was selling like you know, regular Doritos.
- 23:32SPEAKER_01: I was like, man, if I bring spicy Doritos, hot Cheetos, I'm not gonna get everybody else.
- 23:35SPEAKER_01: So then like the teacher was like, That's cool.
- 23:38SPEAKER_01: It's like, but you can't sell in in like in class unless I like say it's okay, because like it can't do it while he's teaching.
- 23:42SPEAKER_01: All right, cool.
- 23:43SPEAKER_01: So like at the end of class, last two minutes, I'll be like, Hey, I got some snacks, y'all need some, yeah.
- 23:47SPEAKER_01: Boom, I'll make some money real quick, and then I'll sell out, and then I'll go back to the store and get some more stuff.
- 23:51SPEAKER_00: You think uh Texas will ever abolish us having uh handguns or guns?
- 23:57SPEAKER_00: Nah.
- 24:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah, nah, because I have my I have my license to carry too.
- 24:05SPEAKER_01: Like I went through class like during COVID, that's when I got it.
- 24:07SPEAKER_01: And but I went through like I said, I went to like I was in like in a country little part spot of it, but it wasn't as very gun crazy.
- 24:14SPEAKER_01: But the way that I see is like when I started doing the business, I'm carrying around like two, three grand sometimes on me in cash.
- 24:21SPEAKER_01: They don't know that, but you know, anybody somebody can stay rob you for$20, you never know.
- 24:26SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so you just gotta be careful what you do.
- 24:29SPEAKER_01: And I always that's why I always rode around with at least my brother, like a friend, or just somebody that knew like if something were to go down, I had some backup or something.
- 24:37SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I would think in that too.
- 24:38SPEAKER_00: Like if I if I was to do a pop-up or something, because I sell like merch and stuff like that, like because I would have to have the money on hand, but I guess they use Cash App and all that stuff, yeah.
- 24:46SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
- 24:47SPEAKER_01: So like I have like like I mean he has a card reader now too when he takes his transactions on the truck.
- 24:51SPEAKER_01: And I used to have like the uh square reader.
- 24:53SPEAKER_03: So okay, you use Cash App, the card reader, or uh I have a card reader.
- 24:57SPEAKER_03: Um and then we have Cash App of course too.
- 25:00SPEAKER_03: So a lot of people nowadays they they have debit cards.
- 25:04SPEAKER_03: So um, I mean, we we just got the card reader there at uh Andy Eats, but as far as like Smoke City and Candy Andy, uh a lot of people use their debit card.
- 25:13SPEAKER_03: Yeah, right.
- 25:14SPEAKER_03: I do want to say shout out to my to my homie Albert tuning in.

- 28:42SPEAKER_00: Buy it over here at the produce bodega, yeah.
- 28:45SPEAKER_00: Yeah, possibly the uh Zay's deuces also.
- 28:47SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I think we're about to run out too.
- 28:48SPEAKER_01: So yeah, I'm pretty sure because that thing right there, like as much as I want to say it's different, it's not.
- 28:53SPEAKER_01: I mean, it's it's different because um I've tried other gushers.
- 28:57SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so like I have a lot of people like oh I guess I buy chamoy all the time.
- 29:00SPEAKER_00: So yeah, it's this one right here.
- 29:02SPEAKER_00: Yeah, this one right here.
- 29:03SPEAKER_01: So the thing is the the difference between this and somebody else's that my sauce chamois gushers, y'all.
- 29:08SPEAKER_01: You guys gotta try that.
- 29:09SPEAKER_01: I just tried it right now, it's fire.
- 29:10SPEAKER_01: The seasoning and the sauce is way different.
- 29:12SPEAKER_01: Like, I I make that separately.
- 29:13SPEAKER_01: I don't just buy the store-bought chamoy bottle.
- 29:15SPEAKER_01: Okay, and that's what makes it sauce.
- 29:18SPEAKER_01: That's what that's what the difference is.
- 29:19SPEAKER_01: That's what I'm saying.
- 29:20SPEAKER_03: Like, that's what makes it unique.
- 29:21SPEAKER_01: Yeah, like seeing it on like TikTok.
- 29:23SPEAKER_01: Everybody just buys like, you know, the mixture.
- 29:25SPEAKER_01: And they tain that's and they mix it.
- 29:27SPEAKER_01: So you make the mix itself.
- 29:28SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 29:29SPEAKER_01: That itself, so if I'm gonna do a whole batch, I'll make like I have some uh what is the it's like a it's like a big ass squirt bottle, it's like this big, it's like a 32 ounce bottle.
- 29:39SPEAKER_01: But I'll mix it and I put them in six bottles, and I know how much that makes.
- 29:42SPEAKER_01: I know it makes at least over 200 200 bags.
- 29:45SPEAKER_01: Amazing.
- 29:46SPEAKER_01: So when I do that, I have to prep that.
- 29:48SPEAKER_01: That takes like an hour and a half just to prep that.
- 29:50SPEAKER_01: Then I gotta make the stuff, then I gotta package it, and then that's where it takes the time.
- 29:54SPEAKER_01: But if I spend a whole day, like if I spend 10, 12 hours making candy, I'll knock out like 400 bags.
- 29:58SPEAKER_00: So with all that, but so with all the buying the mix and all that stuff, the packaging and all that stuff, do you do you find yourself coming out up on top?
- 30:05SPEAKER_00: I guess it depends.
- 30:06SPEAKER_01: Like lately, so when I started this, the box of gushes, like the ones you get from Sam's, I mean, it used to be 10 bucks, but now they're like 13, 14.
- 30:15SPEAKER_01: Oh, crazy.
- 30:15SPEAKER_01: It's like inflation, as much as like that's like oh my god, stuff's getting expensive.
- 30:20SPEAKER_01: It is expensive, but it's just how you market it too.
- 30:23SPEAKER_01: Because like I've haven't changed my price.
- 30:25SPEAKER_01: Uh they've been five bucks since I started this in 2020.
- 30:28SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 30:29SPEAKER_01: Drew sells them a little bit more because he's buying them at wholesale price, but he's also he has a following and they're good, it's a good product, and I stand by it.
- 30:36SPEAKER_01: Me, I sell at the same price because like I don't want to switch up on nobody and like, oh, I'm gonna raise it to$20.
- 30:41SPEAKER_01: But as much as it's good, I feel like my product speaks for itself because right now I can say that's seven bucks, and I'll somebody like I sell it to is seven dollars.
- 30:50SPEAKER_01: Like, oh bro, you should sell it for five.
- 30:51SPEAKER_01: Like, I know, but I don't like sit here and tell them, like, oh, it's because the prices went up.
- 30:55SPEAKER_01: But I want to uh like even him, like when we first got like talked together, like he used to buy some from like the Trade Center.
- 31:00SPEAKER_01: It's like the same size as 10 bucks over there.
- 31:03SPEAKER_01: And they're tastes alright.
- 31:04SPEAKER_01: I'm not gonna say it's trash, but it's a different flavor, it's more it's either too hot or not sweet enough, or just too spicy.
- 31:10SPEAKER_01: Like, there's not a mix.
- 31:12SPEAKER_01: Mine's like a perfect blend of like sweet, spicy, and like at least you're like if you get stuck eating it, you're gonna eat the whole bag.
- 31:17SPEAKER_01: The other one, you're gonna take two, three bites and put it up to like next week, and then only one.
- 31:23SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I got you.
- 31:24SPEAKER_00: Wow, so you so you gotta you gotta fight with the competitors and then you gotta fight with the market, the the fine the how to price it.
- 31:31SPEAKER_01: Because when I first started, I mean I was making like shoot, like when I first started, I was still working at Timo.
- 31:35SPEAKER_01: I would after work, I'll go drop out deliveries, meet up people.
- 31:39SPEAKER_01: I was making an extra 200-300 bucks almost every other day.
- 31:42SPEAKER_01: And that was just on top of what I was already making at work.
- 31:45SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 31:45SPEAKER_01: So, like now, if I were to do it every day, I'd probably still make the same even here.
- 31:50SPEAKER_01: Right on, like because when I first started doing it here, I met a few like people that I would talk to, and like I had like sold out one day and I didn't have any for like a few days.
- 31:57SPEAKER_01: And this girl, this girl had messaged me and was like, Hey, I'm so sorry I cheated on you.
- 32:00SPEAKER_01: I'm like, what happened?
- 32:02SPEAKER_01: And uh, she's like, No, like I bought some candy from the trade center, it wasn't even worth it.
- 32:05SPEAKER_01: And I was like, damn, I was like, okay, I'm sorry, it's like next time I get some let you know.
- 32:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and she's like, Thank you so much.
- 32:11SPEAKER_01: And then so she bought some more, and then she bought some the next day again, and she spent like the whole weekend that she spent like 80 bucks.
- 32:16SPEAKER_01: I was like, damn, all right.
- 32:18SPEAKER_00: Trade center, bro.
- 32:19SPEAKER_00: So you guys moved out of from the trade center.
- 32:21SPEAKER_00: Uh so we're gonna who we got here, uh Gene DeLeon.
- 32:24SPEAKER_00: Appreciate your own.
- 32:25SPEAKER_03: Yeah, Jane Gene DeLeon's our other business partner on the trailer.

- 32:54SPEAKER_03: Sunday we'll be at the T-Mobile event.

- 33:03SPEAKER_03: Um definitely gonna just keep pushing out content and stuff from here on out.
- 33:07SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so so you find yourself having to keep pushing content in order to market your product.
- 33:11SPEAKER_00: Right, definitely.
- 33:12SPEAKER_01: Like in this time, yeah.
- 33:14SPEAKER_01: This like the way it is now.
- 33:15SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I had a question earlier about um how come I don't really, you know, use like radio or like um, you know, other uh outlets, and I just feel like TikTok right now has been the biggest blessing for me and what I do.
- 33:30SPEAKER_03: Um Candy Andy has over 23,000 followers.
- 33:34SPEAKER_03: Uh I just posted a recent video, maybe my second recent video, and it's probably sitting at over 30k views, uh thousand something like.
- 33:42SPEAKER_03: So um 95% of my clientele for Candy Andy is from TikTok.
- 33:47SPEAKER_03: Wow.
- 33:47SPEAKER_03: Like I've asked people, you know, where where'd you find us at?
- 33:51SPEAKER_03: And then they'll point at their like little kid and be like, well, he found you.
- 33:55SPEAKER_03: And I'm like, where did he find us at?
- 33:57SPEAKER_03: And they're like, TikTok.
- 33:58SPEAKER_03: So uh definitely like about 95% of our clientele, like people would think it'd probably be from people supporting me.
- 34:05SPEAKER_03: And I mean, there's some people that do, and I appreciate those uh that that do come out and support me, but a lot of the time it's it's from the the TikTok account and stuff and the way we advertise on there.
- 34:16SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you'll have uh 39 plus followers together combined TikTok, IG, and Facebook.
- 34:21SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 34:21SPEAKER_00: It's awesome, man.
- 34:22SPEAKER_00: Yeah, dude, uh the kids using their their mom's TikTok account to make videos and stuff.
- 34:27SPEAKER_00: I can imagine, dude.
- 34:28SPEAKER_00: And then, like, dude, TikTok is freaking smart.
- 34:30SPEAKER_00: You know how they use your camera.
- 34:31SPEAKER_00: I cover up my camera, bro.
- 34:32SPEAKER_00: I'm like a yeah, you know what I mean?
- 34:34SPEAKER_00: The TikTok, they know who's looking at the phone, the little kids looking at the phone.
- 34:38SPEAKER_00: My my son, dude.
- 34:39SPEAKER_00: He they was watching this one guy like eating a lollipop, and he was like, Look, candy.
- 34:44SPEAKER_00: So, like, definitely, man, I could see that that's how mine started.
- 34:47SPEAKER_01: So, like, I uh so like I sold you like OT.
- 34:50SPEAKER_01: I did uh I'll go to music video shoots with him.
- 34:53SPEAKER_01: I'm in a few, like if you I'm in the background, I'm not like in there, but like I'm in the background.
- 34:57SPEAKER_01: Um, I post some behind the scenes or I'll post a clip.
- 35:00SPEAKER_01: That's how it started with TikTok.
- 35:02SPEAKER_01: It blew up like within like a day, had 150,000 views.
- 35:05SPEAKER_01: Like, sorry, that's how my followers started following.
- 35:07SPEAKER_01: I was like, Right, they're like, Oh, you know him, and I was like, Yeah, like but that happened, man.
- 35:10SPEAKER_00: I got videos from yeah, I saw I saw like uh you there was one pinned to your TikTok and it was like even before because he looks he different from the way he looks now.
- 35:18SPEAKER_00: He's clean shaved, you know what I mean?
- 35:20SPEAKER_00: He looked different.
- 35:20SPEAKER_00: I was like, Whoa, yeah, so it's pretty cool that that you knew him.
- 35:24SPEAKER_00: So that so that type of marketing has helped your and you were in Houston, right?
- 35:28SPEAKER_00: Is there so and you made the move to Corpus?
- 35:30SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 35:31SPEAKER_00: Uh so I mean, is there a story behind why you well well you mentioned your dad, right?
- 35:35SPEAKER_00: Is that the main reason?
- 35:36SPEAKER_01: Nah, it's just uh I was going through like a separation at the time.
- 35:39SPEAKER_01: So like um, I didn't really have any family over there because like I said, my mom was locked up, my brother had moved over here already, and I didn't really have anybody to like live with anymore.
- 35:48SPEAKER_01: So, like, you know what?
- 35:49SPEAKER_01: My parents, my grandparents have a ranch in Mathis, and I was like, I'm gonna start over.
- 35:53SPEAKER_01: I took what I could, took what I had, moved over there.
- 35:56SPEAKER_01: I got the job back at T Mobile over here, transferred over here, and then I was like, I'm gonna put all the business on hold.
- 36:02SPEAKER_01: I'm still gonna have the platforms, I'm still gonna have it, but I'm gonna put it on hold.
- 36:05SPEAKER_01: I'm not gonna post anything.
- 36:06SPEAKER_01: But even when I did that, I still had people like wanting stuff like hey man, I'll pay an extra 50 bucks for either make this or whatever.
- 36:12SPEAKER_01: And I was like, okay, okay.
- 36:14SPEAKER_01: So like I still had interest, but it was everybody from Houston, so I'm like, damn, I have to ship it.
- 36:18SPEAKER_01: And but then that's why I was like, I didn't have any help over here.
- 36:20SPEAKER_01: It wasn't until the lowrider car show when I remember Carly was here.
- 36:25SPEAKER_01: And me and Carly, like, I I know Carly because I've done events with Dope House, and she loves my candy, she loves the drink.
- 36:31SPEAKER_01: She man, she's like the nicest person.
- 36:33SPEAKER_01: As much as that is SPM's daughter, I don't view it like that.
- 36:37SPEAKER_01: I used to because I was like, Man, SPM's used to be a god, and he was in like if you wanted to you wanted to be around dope house, that was cool.
- 36:43SPEAKER_01: But she became really like friends, and we she would like, hey, or even uh baby, baby Los son, them two always like hey, let me buy some candy, my sister wants some, right?
- 36:52SPEAKER_01: My brother wants some.
- 36:53SPEAKER_01: That's how we would the transaction started.
- 36:55SPEAKER_01: So whenever whenever she came down here for that car show, I like, hey, I'm like, I'm in town.
- 37:00SPEAKER_01: Can I meet you?
- 37:00SPEAKER_01: She's like, Yeah, like can I get some gushes?
- 37:02SPEAKER_01: So she bought some stuff for me and went in, and that's how it started.
- 37:05SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it's the whole man.
- 37:07SPEAKER_00: Wow.
- 37:07SPEAKER_00: So, what's the most popular product you're selling at T-Mobile right now?
- 37:11SPEAKER_01: I need some internet.
- 37:13SPEAKER_01: Don't do that.
- 37:15SPEAKER_03: Don't do that.
- 37:18SPEAKER_03: Zay got me some internet.
- 37:19SPEAKER_01: Oh, no, no, I didn't sell that to you.
- 37:20SPEAKER_01: I didn't sell that to you.
- 37:21SPEAKER_01: He got it for somebody else.
- 37:23SPEAKER_01: But hey, I'm not gonna say that.
- 37:25SPEAKER_01: Like, I love I love my job, my day job's cool.
- 37:26SPEAKER_01: I'm good, I'm good at what I do.
- 37:28SPEAKER_01: Um, but it's because I've been doing this since 2018.
- 37:31SPEAKER_03: Say it's good and sells it, period.
- 37:32SPEAKER_00: Like, yeah, well, true.
- 37:33SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he knows how to talk, so it's not even like a lot of people tell me, like, man, there's there's uh there's people that like man, you can sell pretty good, or you can talk with other like it's not even that.
- 37:43SPEAKER_01: Like you say, you can't you can't re-mobile right, like, hey, my phone's not working right, man.
- 37:47SPEAKER_01: I need to get a new phone, I have ATT.
- 37:49SPEAKER_01: You already know your phone don't work, and you want something better, like, okay, what do you want?
- 37:53SPEAKER_01: I'll ask you straight up.
- 37:54SPEAKER_01: And if you if you're like, man, I just need an I want an iPhone, okay.
- 37:58SPEAKER_01: Why do you want an iPhone?
- 37:59SPEAKER_01: I'll I'll question you, and you gotta sell me why you want it because I'm not gonna switch you from a different phone that you're not used to.
- 38:04SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and I just go from there and I'm just on it.
- 38:07SPEAKER_01: Like, I've learned over the like this job, you can't force anybody to buy anything, they're already there to spend money and they're gonna buy what they want.
- 38:13SPEAKER_01: That's how it is.
- 38:14SPEAKER_03: Say other people will be there to try to force you to buy something, and then it's like, damn, I walked out with God.
- 38:21SPEAKER_01: I'm not knocking anybody that does that.
- 38:22SPEAKER_01: Like, I have coworkers that meant like an old person comes in, they'll sell them something extra, like they're not even gonna use, and then they might forget about it.
- 38:29SPEAKER_01: But as much as like I have a conscience, but it's more like I'm not gonna do that because that makes me look bad because they're gonna talk bad about me later, like, oh man, he tried to sell me this, he sold me this, I wasn't using it, like he made me pay an extra 50 bucks on my bill.
- 38:41SPEAKER_01: Like, no, I'm not trying to do that.
- 38:42SPEAKER_01: If you need a phone, I got you a phone.
- 38:43SPEAKER_01: If you want a tablet and just you tell me why you need it, I'm or I might tell you, hey, if you want to play games on a bigger screen you can't see, go with an iPad.
- 38:50SPEAKER_01: Yeah, just but I'm not gonna sit here and like waste your time because then if you have an issue and you don't want that no more, you're gonna bring it back to me anyways and return it.
- 38:57SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and you're like, Man, you sold me this, and I don't want you to tell me nothing no more.
- 39:00SPEAKER_01: Then that leaves a bad rip on that part, and I don't want to do that.
- 39:03SPEAKER_00: So, do you feel like those values and per principles have carried over to especially with this type of stuff?
- 39:09SPEAKER_01: Like, I believe in my products so much that that I don't like if someone were to tell me like they don't like it, it's because they truly just don't like it.
- 39:16SPEAKER_01: That's fine.
- 39:16SPEAKER_01: Out of the candy of any candy that I've ever sold, I probably met three people out of the thousand bags I've sold that don't like my candy, and that's because they just don't like Chamoy at all.
- 39:25SPEAKER_01: And then that's that's fine.
- 39:26SPEAKER_01: Like, I'm not gonna sit here and like force you to eat something.
- 39:28SPEAKER_03: Yeah, good sales first.
- 39:30SPEAKER_00: If you got me to buy more people, yeah, yeah.
- 39:34SPEAKER_00: Good sales person.
- 39:36SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
- 39:37SPEAKER_00: That's crazy, man.
- 39:38SPEAKER_00: Wait, who else we got?
- 39:39SPEAKER_00: Fernando Leva.
- 39:40SPEAKER_00: That's that's uh Julie's brother.
- 39:41SPEAKER_00: Oh right on uh Jean de Leon, some days it's it's a uh brother, but uh advise everyone come out.
- 39:47SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah, we can thanks everyone.
- 39:49SPEAKER_01: Yeah, hey, I don't know.
- 39:50SPEAKER_01: Gene B.
- 39:50SPEAKER_01: Hey, he made it so the reason why Julie said something by the quesadilla, he threw a little spinner on it.
- 39:55SPEAKER_01: I know he's probably laughing because he made a quesadilla of regular cheese and we had nachos that night.
- 39:59SPEAKER_01: He put some nacho cheese on at the end.
- 40:04SPEAKER_01: But that was another thing.
- 40:06SPEAKER_01: I guess the video you've seen or you had you had talked about on Facebook.
- 40:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so what I told Drew, I was like, look, there's no really good taco spot in Corbis out there.
- 40:15SPEAKER_03: Now Zay, Zay told me the other day to go to this taco spot and I went.
- 40:19SPEAKER_03: I didn't eat my tacos, I threw them those away.
- 40:22SPEAKER_03: I said, man, bro, for you making me weigh$40.
- 40:25SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I said, I said, man, for you making me weigh$40, you gotta make me some of your tacos, bro.
- 40:30SPEAKER_03: Like, I was I was upset.
- 40:31SPEAKER_03: That's because I I got other items.
- 40:33SPEAKER_03: I got tacos, I got BDA tacos.
- 40:35SPEAKER_03: The BDA tacos didn't even have a crunch.
- 40:37SPEAKER_03: Like they were just like like just soggy.
- 40:39SPEAKER_03: He was like, maybe there was uh a bad cook.
- 40:41SPEAKER_03: He was probably having a bad day.
- 40:42SPEAKER_03: I was like, bro.
- 40:45SPEAKER_01: So for me though, okay, because one night uh Julie was working late and um I was like, man, I don't feel like cooking.
- 40:50SPEAKER_01: Like some days I don't fly cooking, and I was like, man, I'll just pick up some McDonald's or some shit.
- 40:53SPEAKER_01: I was like, but this day there there's uh there's two food trucks.
- 40:56SPEAKER_01: There's one right there, one in front of Gemini 03.
- 40:58SPEAKER_01: That's actually the good one.
- 40:59SPEAKER_01: That one's yeah, that one's all right.
- 41:01SPEAKER_01: That one's okay.
- 41:02SPEAKER_01: That one's better than the other one.
- 41:03SPEAKER_01: Okay, so but look, but mind you though, my thing is I hate waiting.
- 41:06SPEAKER_01: I hate waiting in line.
- 41:08SPEAKER_01: I mean, like, yeah, I understand if it's only one cook, cool.
- 41:10SPEAKER_01: I know I'm gonna wait at least 10-15 minutes.
- 41:12SPEAKER_01: All right, it's fine.
- 41:12SPEAKER_01: But the other one that's in front that's in the Eskimo Hut parking lot, it's called a tequila taco or something like that.
- 41:17SPEAKER_03: Yeah, nobody was there.
- 41:18SPEAKER_03: They're actual restaurants fire though.
- 41:20SPEAKER_03: So I don't know.
- 41:21SPEAKER_01: I don't know why the so like I pulled up and I was like, you know what?
- 41:23SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna order like a little because they had a I think it's like three for or three for seven and five for ten or some shit like that.
- 41:28SPEAKER_01: I was like, I'm gonna buy some tacos real quick.
- 41:30SPEAKER_01: The guys are nice, spoke Spanish.
- 41:32SPEAKER_01: I was like, hey, let me get a order of tacos.

- 43:45SPEAKER_03: This time it was like it was fresh.
- 43:47SPEAKER_01: So yeah.
- 43:48SPEAKER_01: And then I made the quesadilla.
- 43:49SPEAKER_01: The quesadilla is just on point.
- 43:51SPEAKER_01: So what I told Drew, I was like, you know what?
- 43:53SPEAKER_01: My next day off, like next week, what I'll do is I'll go cook for you at Candy Andy.
- 43:58SPEAKER_01: We'll do like some taco plates.
- 44:00SPEAKER_03: some quesadilla plates like a day and then like a day we'll see how it goes we'll see if anybody likes it if they do like it cool if not so were you thinking that the whole time he's gonna go he's gotta come over here and I knew he he you know what I mean he was gonna bring because man that shit I told him I said bro this shit is crazy because yeah because they had they had some people cook for him over there and we've done it before we've served like enchiladas tacos yeah chicken fettuccine alfredo plates and like I don't want to knock nobody's food I've tried everybody's food nobody's nobody's bad I just like home cooked food other than like because what I told him too is like you gotta think about it it's two it's two and two in the morning everybody goes to water bird everybody goes McDonald's everybody gets tired of that though and that's just the high hop dinny sometimes it's all that's open that exactly and that's that's what I told him like man if we were to get a truck and just sling tacos and quesadillas at night and all they do is like hey how much for a plate of five shit 15 bucks or whatever yeah they're gonna buy it they're hungry bro that they're fucked up they're not wanting to do anything that's a good thought process right there man and then so like I even told him I was like shoot if we're gonna get another food truck or whatever like we'll just sling tacos and quesadillas and I swear so if I was cooking a shop I'll I'll work from 10 to 2 10 to 3 in the morning and just knock them out and still be something that's nice what's up on TikTok Isaac the Barber we got uh the Garza what's up Garza man appreciate you always in here sorry man that it's on that screen over there better eyes than I do yeah I have well uh kind of having the screen on that one yeah man that's dope what you guys are doing man so are you guys are y'all a a partnership or you got your business he's got his business I mean I have my business yes his but as much as it's like separate it's it's together okay I mean because without one or the other I mean it doesn't work because as much as G O like being in a I mean we still all work together yeah I guess I mean like like uh not not two owners for one business you know what I'm saying like I'm thinking more of like a I guess like a corporate level or whatever you know what I'm saying is it like your business his business or both y'all have a business so Trap Zeus was originally like Zay's you know what I mean like yeah like like he came up with Trap Zeus all me and G did was just come in and put our little twist to it and you know what I mean now we're all three on the same page as you know wanting to blow it up so we understand the the idea the goal and the mission so um we all just want the same thing you know what I mean but in order to make that happen you know it it's like a basketball team can't no one be saying like ISO the whole game like everybody has to play their role and throw the ball yeah I could see it that's what I was asking man I because you would think that sometimes if there's more than one people involved it'd be difficult to get to keep it going you know what I mean it's like a band you know what I mean because as much as like because because honestly like when I started the candy I didn't want people to know who I was I didn't give a damn if they saw me in picture or not I just posted the product I didn't care even this like I don't care people to know who who's who makes it or it's just the name it's just the name I want people to know like when they see this it's a good product that's what I want them to do.
- 46:50SPEAKER_01: I don't like as much as Drew's well known like that's cool if they see him they see this cool because he has that following I'm I'm new here I don't know anybody the people that I have met have been through Drew so that's that's that's where I felt like even today I walked through Walmart I was grabbing some stuff I met some dude I met with Drew it was um he was at the barber shop one day oh okay and then um he's hey what's up he's like what you doing I was like oh man we're getting ready for the drinks or this weekend oh man I'll be there this weekend he was at work so he was walking by so that type of marketing has worked for you in the past when you were in Houston and you're kind of yeah it's like I said like so I know it sounds crazy but I did uh a candy contest so like the candy that I do is so big in Houston there's so many different people that do it because there's so different markets.
- 47:29SPEAKER_01: So they had a candy contest the first one I entered I was like real rough into like I show you pictures I was like a little table with a white basket it looks really plain um I didn't win that one but the thing is what what I did was I still stayed to myself I didn't do anything extra I did how I knew um there was people that were from like on like YouTube there was Yum Yum Candy Scarface the Michelalamics in Houston um big names that were like and even Chingo Bling his wife was there they were all judges and like I like I knew who they were but and I'm just a little person here like they're not gonna say anything to me I didn't win anything I didn't even place anything but I injured like my I had a pickle like what he does but I have my sauce and seasoning so it tastes a little different and I'll throw some like um Taki's peanuts on it with the the swinkle stuff on it and that right there that product is what kind of blew me up because after the contest was done Scarface came Yum Yum candy and then uh Chingo Bling's wife came like hey look you didn't win but yours tasted the best your presentation wasn't there wow I didn't know I didn't know like we had to like make that shit look fancy I was just throwing it out there I was just like I just want them to taste the food that's all I wanted to do but at the end like hey man can you make us one we'll pay for it like I we we we liked it so much that we want to take it home so I did so that kind of helped me I said after that event I was like damn all right so the next one they had another event like two months later man I went all out I had all the presentation badass plays at a Mexican flag uh toothpick or whatever on the on everything that one right there made me second place that's where it started I went second place I won a plaque and it also got recognition from dope house um Carly was supposed to be there but SPM son was there I didn't even like present myself like I'm a fan or anything like that all I was like hey here's this product he came back and bought more stuff at the end and then even that too I shot my shot maybe like a week later and I was like hey man like you remember me from the contest like if y'all need anything let me know I'll come deliver to you that was that's where it happened everything from meeting the managers to meeting OT to meeting the managers and other artists and videographers through Houston that's how it started from a contest and ever since and then the following year they had the same contest they're like look we know you're who you are you don't even you didn't even enter you can be a judge so that following year I became a judge and I tested or like I tasted all this stuff and that was the first time where I tasted being a host like on stage so I was on stage talking to people making people laugh and that's where it grew from there like I didn't have to bring out the candy anymore people knew I was all I was was they the candy man like that's all it was like that's where my alter ego came out like I was born on stage laughing not as serious playing around and stuff so so the presentation that the presentation of your candy at that one contest is what kind of changed helped change it a little bit and then you became to the point where you don't even have to show your candy it was just you as the brand itself did you find that having an appearance like your your physical your how you look you know what I mean it was I still dress the same I still dress the same as I do now oversized T I don't I wear shorts and some kind of shoes doing a pro five or a pro club which one I had a shaka right here.
- 50:26SPEAKER_01: Oh shaka dude I mean that's it yeah for real dude I've been wanting to try them I got a pro five under you gotta bring you a chap juice shirt yeah yeah for sure that's cool these are the like so this is like so yeah I mean I've always been the same person it's always been unique but I think I got fed into that life though because I think once I met OT and we started going out we'll be out till three four in the morning I started meeting other artists will be out but I didn't like do anything bad we're just out we're promoting a uh video or networking and I met so many people and it was it was good but I got so caught up that man I was staying up late I wouldn't be doing anything so um I would be lazy so I would like kind of like not make as much candy I wouldn't be delivering or I would be like you have to come get it or something like that.
- 51:09SPEAKER_00: So I started changing my ways and it showed because it wasn't as much so that's I'm I'm not trying to be like that anymore I'll I'll do what I need to do I'm gonna sell what I sell as much as me partying or me like going out and drawing myself I'll do that but I'm not gonna make it stop me from making any money and like helping the team yeah yeah we got some people who need a t-shirt 2x I think I might need a three that's my brother in law appreciate y'all uh somebody said in TikTok are y'all uh up to date with uh Drake and Kendrick beef I had just told him about that I had just told him I don't know man but Chris Brown murdered uh yeah I think that one I think that's more interesting Quavo and Chris Brown because Drake mean Drake's already he's an artist even if you don't clap back or anything like that ain't really ain't nothing.
- 51:55SPEAKER_03: But Chris Brown yes yeah the light skinned dancing RB singer coming at you Kendrick just dropped the track before we heard that earlier so Kendrick just dropped the track yeah another one before wow yeah I see that yeah it was pretty tight J Cole didn't I'm car man yeah I got J.
- 52:17SPEAKER_00: Cole right here in the Mary Jacket oh J Cole yes we're wow what do y'all think in the chat about the uh Jerry uh Kendrick beef put it put in the chat appreciate that you got on right now so hey I'll have who made your tease yeah what are you saying uh my cousin my cousin I'll have him autograph that for you Jonathan oh yeah my uh my cousin he uh so my other cousin he has uh lupe he has uh he has another business is choose wisely okay it's actually based from like J.
- 52:44SPEAKER_01: Cole like his wisdom his words from his lyrics no way so but his brand is very he uses shaka for his shirts is very good material and he know he knows how he knows how to make good merch and he's good going to school for design so like he'll help us out with some of our stuff so like he we've got our shirts through him so if we do any shirts it's through him because he knows the guy that prints out the logos and then he'll get it pressed by him and stuff and that's who makes our stuff because he has the bags and everything too.
- 53:09SPEAKER_01: He actually does a lot of designs for a lot of barbershops that that are around like Corpus.
- 53:13SPEAKER_01: So he's he's based out of corpus?
- 53:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah just we just moved back he was in the valley for a while and now he's going to school and stuff and he does that full time.
- 53:21SPEAKER_01: Yeah right I mean he's been he's been he started his like last year too so it's been a year since he's almost been like fully out it's interesting you say that he uh uses a lyric from Kendrick for his Jacob just from J.
- 53:32SPEAKER_01: Cole for his brand yeah like choose wisely his brand is that's like something J.
- 53:37SPEAKER_01: Cole says like when I was interested wow yeah so do y'all have some type of uh I guess that kind of type of thinking or philosophy or whatever for your brand or whatever um my candy I do because um there's a there's some artists in Houston that kind of I gave them some candy and they tried it out on a video and it was like it ain't Zay's though.
- 53:56SPEAKER_01: Because like if you try anybody else's it ain't Zay's oh come on so I kinda went in with that one and then the drinks I mean I had told them when I started this there's a you ever seen juice with Tupac?
- 54:05SPEAKER_01: Uh maybe yeah oh yeah maybe like back in the days like in like the 90s um this is like my power respect juice so I was saying like this and I was like we got the juice so same thing nice dude yeah when I talk to business people they have like some kind of slogan for something or other like my dad he's uh like a door he does doors and stuff it's called see more doors been in business since like 92 I was like where you come up with your your name he's like I got it from this or whatever and yeah so see more doors you know what I mean this is the what I use when I talk to people so it's interesting that you guys have like that type of uh mindset you know what I mean as business people I think that's what tied us together is the way that we do think on stuff like that when it comes to like numbers and like oh yeah yeah yeah everything we tie in together is because of that so a lot of y'all have a lot of likes and likes like differences or whatever don't really see anything they're like if I throw in ideas they you know damn bro that's fucking dope or if he says something I'm like shit that's even fucking dope like yeah so we're both kind of you know on the same level I mean if something sounds stupid of course we're we'll call it out but so far like I mean whenever whenever we thought about this this idea of the the grape we both were like shit and then whenever it was put together it was like damn then whenever it got slapped on the bottle it was like wow like when I slept on there last night I was like damn like there's gonna be some issues but like even right now earlier he's like hey don't put that on snap because they're gonna think it's drugs or you can't leave it on the flagged me it it flagged me so I was like man like that shit I mean it it it's understandable but uh we just gotta word it the right way you know what I mean Texas T and I mean it's nothing bad because don't get it wrong like I was there's nothing infused in it so it's just juice no like I could sell this to a five year old hey like I'm not not gonna say always expand your market too it's not just a certain type of because there is so like there's another um was in Houston there's a a brand called a hippie juice that one's infused that one they have different sizes and stuff like that like nah I wouldn't want to do that to nobody because I've seen how much that messes up like say you're not used to it you take a drink out of it you're I ain't trying to mess nobody up even like when I started selling the candy a lot of my people on snapchat are like man are those edibles nah bro like they wouldn't be five bucks that'd be 50 bucks of their edibles yeah I was like ain't that cheap wow so do you have to put the the the uh the ingredients and stuff yeah yeah yeah is it a must like you have to when you sell that or you just kind of just did we just he he he came up with because me I was just to put the name to be honest I was do like that but he's like this makes more official brought to my attention yeah okay yeah so I mean I thought about it too but I was like man I don't have I don't have the knowledge to it but then do our designer Keith man yeah shout out my boy Keith Keith Keith Keith yeah where's he at he's here in town yeah he's here in town he should he gave him the idea and he and he that that's his company right yeah like he came up with these designs like even the one for faded vision the collab the first collab we did with the with faded vision barbershop um one of the barbers there Louis uh Anaya he's the one that man he went to the shop when we first had him he bought like 10 bottles wow and he's I love it so much like definitely plan on doing different collabs with different people that you know what I mean yeah wow that's awesome so what's in the future what's what's going on in the future as far as uh trap juice we're gonna you know keep marketing it we got uh different ideas different ways of promotion um video little small clips like 30 second clips of videos uh photo shoots um we're gonna do more pop-up events in different cities uh not just corpus um and just try to just really just build build the name more and more uh to make it as big as possible as we can so get get past Texas yeah get past Texas definitely like we want it in other stores and you know what I mean around Texas right now we just want it to be uh exclusive yeah because like because what I was telling him before like barbers here in Corpus they Andrew like LeBron away I think I'm LeBron nah LeBron LeBron sodas on the are they ripped on each other I think I I think I look more like Arden starts getting up the way but but I was telling him like basically like in Corpus the way barbers are looked at or viewed at and they're like celebrities.
- 58:14SPEAKER_01: I mean shit you go to you go to a barber shop and their clientele's boom and they are constantly busy and that's a good thing and everybody's always thirsty too so yeah so I mean uh I just think it's I thought of I thought barbers was like the first thought because I don't know any artists out here besides Drew like as doing music yeah and that was new for me so like in Houston everybody's a damn rapper everybody doing some kind of music so here the barbers shit there's like there's like as much as there's a lot of barber shops like there's Fade of Vision there's blindy all these places that people go to they go to that they go to that same barber for a reason they're either loyal to them because they cut good or they're your friend and that's the same thing how we want to do is that if you're if these are loyal to like a certain spot that sells it at then you know it's gonna be there no matter what interesting so it's either going to be the food truck smoke city or candy andy and that's so you so still kind of finding the mark your market down yeah so like that's why like I told them like because at first we're trying to do like just exclusive to like different people but as much as like if they don't want to pay for like the cases that they want to get to do the collab that's fine we're not gonna force you to that's how we're doing it right now with the collab for somebody like if for say for an example if you wanted to collab and do like a Corpus Christi original thing uh a certain juice collaboration with trap juice you would have to just buy you know uh four to five cases and then we'd market it for you too as well like on our social media so it kind of plays out both roles like you're getting promoted through our following and not only the trap juice following but my personal following too so like on Snapchat you know my following on Snap is like 2k plus and then my insights are like 200 000 plus so wow that's interesting look at marketing man I never never thought of it that way.
- 59:54SPEAKER_01: Yeah but that's why it's like if you don't want to do the club that's fine we're not gonna force it on you but as much as we do our stuff if you don't have if you can't find us personally we know you know where it's at like we're not gonna sit here and like chase you just buy it like you can come to us.
- 1:00:07SPEAKER_01: We got it available here here right same thing as like you know there's certain places that sell certain drinks themselves like one where or H E B you go to that one spot all the time because you know it's there.
- 1:00:16SPEAKER_03: Man that's how it is do y'all think of like convenience stores I mean how do you approach that situation because I know I think our following would have to be a lot uh bigger you know the name would definitely have to be much much more bigger um and and it will get there but you know for now I think it would just be like kind of like a um into small businesses that are interested in you know having it in there once once small businesses see the traction that we have as far as like our following and how people are buying in the pictures of people like from the last food truck festival we had at least over 40 something pictures of different people trying it um actual videos like little 10 second videos hey you know one through 10 rate the video I mean rate the juice and they'd be like you know oh man it was some of like simple some of them like over the top like dude this right here brings me back to my childhood and yeah yeah I'm telling you man so whenever like let's say you were a small business that had drinks already and you started seeing like man like people are going crazy over this you would want to reach out to us and hey how can I get that juice into my business and you know we go from there and stuff so that's awesome man well yeah more power to you guys I hope you guys get to where you want to be man it's awesome coming up on an hour uh but yeah is there anything else you guys want to share about uh what's going on with y'all man just you know for those that are tuning in and for those that are gonna watch this later on just make sure to follow us on social media you can follow my personal one at drippy drew361 and definitely make sure you follow trap juice uh trap underscore juice as j o z e uh on instagram and uh Facebook so just make sure you stay updated check out Andy Eats Candy Andy and Smoke City for all your smoking essentials yeah there'll be a link in the description also if you're re-watching this I'll put it down there on the audio version and the video version what about you you have any tags any handles you want to share just the Zays dulces ones as much as my following is like decent I mean it's always good to have more people but either way we'll always share on all our like we always tag each other so cool.
