- 1:02You know that PW Born to run Boo.
- 1:07But I I I was trying to call the entire time out of time.
- 1:11Yes, because the flash thing right out of time felt like it
- 1:14was should have been. But it was born to run, right.
- 1:16Yeah. I don't know why we're getting
- 1:18close. So in this before you, let's
- 1:19tell the people who am. I Yeah.
- 1:21I'm here with. I guess I got to be
- 1:22professional. Pardon Michelle Russell, I'm
- 1:25from New Jersey. I I Co host with Ralph the
- 1:28Opinion City podcast which all of you should watch.
- 1:31At least for Ralph, he makes good.
- 1:34Logos we've. We've established tonight
- 1:37there's a team content and a team.
- 1:39Team Canva. Yeah.
- 1:42Team Canva right here. Team Canva.
- 1:46We're Team Canva here. All right, that's enough.
- 1:48That's enough. Cut that, cut that.
- 1:50So let's get into our podcast. That's.
- 1:52All right. What What is your current goal
- 1:55in life? Right now, the podcast, I did
- 1:58radio for a few years when I was in college.
- 2:01I loved it, but I fell out of love with it for a little while
- 2:04and then Ralph here was Not Here came.
- 2:10It was for podcast for the last 6-7 years, but it finally was
- 2:15ready to go. So he asked me last May if we
- 2:17can do it. I said yes and now we're off to
- 2:19the races and now we're here. So what are you currently doing
- 2:22to achieve this goal? Obviously you said before Team
- 2:26Canva making logos, making graphics, making as much as I
- 2:29can, the intros, outros, whatever I can do to help run
- 2:33down for the episodes, Everything, everything I can do
- 2:37to help and be and be be a part of this is what I'm into right
- 2:40now. All right.
- 2:42So what is possibly holding you back?
- 2:44Our distraction from your goals. I don't want to say it's wanting
- 2:48me back, but sometimes I think it does and that's my speech
- 2:51impediment. I do still have one.
- 2:52I have one ever since I was a kid.
- 2:54It was really bad when I was a kid, but now it's much better.
- 2:56But there are some hiccups and there's really nothing I can do
- 3:01to save it. I just have to keep working on
- 3:02myself always and just work at it every day to get better at it
- 3:06and better at speaking. And I think the podcast also
- 3:09helps with that too because I'm I'm always on camera and always
- 3:11on point to just be normal. It's not doesn't make you not
- 3:16normal, but it is, it is challenging.
- 3:18It's hard. Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
- 3:21Who or what motivates or inspires you?
- 3:23And, and I'm going to put I'm going to I'm going to pull I I
- 3:26can't even say the name. I'm going to pull an old school
- 3:28wrestling promoters thing here. You can't say me all right,
- 3:30because I know, I know I'm daddy in this space, you know, No, I'm
- 3:34joking. So who or who or what motivates
- 3:36or inspires you? Honestly, the one that you said
- 3:43were Adam? Yeah, we sort of even as we were
- 3:46kids, like we sort of followed each other's path.
- 3:48I started making dumb videos of me and my friends doing DX stuff
- 3:52when I was like 8th grade high school on a gateway.
- 3:56And you're like, that's pretty cool.
- 3:57It's awesome. And then he's and then we
- 3:59separate, went separate ways. He did audio video.
- 4:02I did just regular work. And now we're back where I
- 4:05should be doing what I should have been been doing the last 10
- 4:08years. That's content, videos,
- 4:11podcasts. What are you grateful for and
- 4:13are you are you currently happy? Yes.
- 4:16And yes, this is going to sound sort of morbid in a way, and I
- 4:22don't want my way, but I think I'm grateful that I did

- 6:36Uno Momento. UN momento is the way it's
- 6:38supposed to be said, not Uno Momento.
- 6:40Uno is a card game. It's been a long day.
- 6:45Oh yeah, absolutely. Day.
- 6:47It's the bonus question. Bonus question, Yeah.
- 6:49So it's coming from someone who also sometimes it comes out by I
- 6:53have a stutter and I also had a speech impediment growing up.
- 6:57When knowing you have that or knowing it's a thing that
- 7:00affects you in your speech and being in a world where you want
- 7:02to be a podcaster or someone who speaks for a living, do you ever
- 7:05have like a moment of like, I shouldn't be doing this?
- 7:08Or does it motivate you more to push through?
- 7:10And how do you navigate it? Absolutely not.
- 7:12I think it's as much as I say it's like a curse.
- 7:15It's not. It feels me like I know there's
- 7:18times where I can't talk and there's times where I can't
- 7:20talk. There's really nothing that
- 7:21controls that emotionally other than I guess, nervousness or
- 7:25excitement sometimes one of them that it just kind of turns on
- 7:27and off whenever it wants to. It's like a switch.
- 7:30But I think the podcast, the switch is off OK.
- 7:33As soon as I'm in the booth, as soon as the headphones are on,
- 7:35the mic is on, I'm a totally different person in the studio.
- 7:40What is your most embarrassing stutter moment?
- 7:44Oh God, that's so bad. I.
- 7:47Think that's a good question. It's a great question.
- 7:49You know what, immediately I think of You ever see the South
- 7:51Park episode where Jimmy is trying to tell Wendy that she is
- 7:57the continuous love of her life? I think you said Wendy, you're.
- 8:01So what is your? So mine this is this is involved
- 8:09Adam Shocker. So back in high school, we had
- 8:11to do a video 1 project where me and my friends did a video,
- 8:14filmed it, but we also did bloopers.
- 8:16And this was before I really started to curse.
- 8:17I this was where I was like straight edge.
- 8:19I didn't do anything. I didn't even curse.
- 8:20I was like super clean. That's fucking super clean but
- 8:23so and during the bloopers I said fuck my stuttering and I
- 8:28didn't catch it until after I watched it back.
- 8:30Did you air for the class? No, no, I don't no, not not that
- 8:34was like for me, for us, but I showed my brother and we were on
- 8:37a zoom call or whatever and he and he goes, can you play it
- 8:40again? I didn't even I even think about
- 8:42it. He he recorded it and that was
- 8:43his ring tone for me for for a good few years.
- 8:45Fuck my. Stutter on loop.
- 8:46I love that, yeah. On repeat.
