- 1:03Speaker 3: I love when younger people get involved in this space
- 1:07Speaker 3: because look, I'm old, I've done my thing, I'm still

- 1:22Speaker 3: guys run a site called pigos Trading Desk Desk. That's
- 1:28Speaker 3: piggo apostrophe as Trading Desk and guys, great to have
- 1:34Speaker 3: you on the show. Introduce yourselves please.
- 1:38Speaker 4: Well I'm Derek and this is Tony, my brother. We
- 1:41Speaker 4: host a Piggo's trading desk. We are pretty much average
- 1:45Speaker 4: American workingman. I work still at a regular place and
- 1:50Speaker 4: I also do the trading with my brother.
- 1:51Speaker 5: He's been trading since he was like twenty four. Talk
- 1:55Speaker 5: lit bit myself.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Yeah, I started trading at twenty four. I was classically
- 1:58Speaker 1: trained in Austrian economics in China. And you know, I've
- 2:01Speaker 1: built my own strategy over the years. Why I utilize
- 2:04Speaker 1: a vortex indicator and I have a sheep indicator based
- 2:07Speaker 1: on how many like for example, like people are gullible
- 2:10Speaker 1: to the bullshit propaganda that it's be on TV. So
- 2:13Speaker 1: the highest you can get the four and the lowest
- 2:15Speaker 1: you can get one.
- 2:16Speaker 3: Well, you know what they say, sheeple who need sheeple
- 2:20Speaker 3: are the leftiest sheeple in the world.
- 2:23Speaker 6: Exactly.
- 2:24Speaker 3: Webert Streissan saying that a song right, didn't she sheeple
- 2:27Speaker 3: who need sheeple? But anyway, Uh, okay, So you were
- 2:31Speaker 3: in China and you learned about Austrian economics.
- 2:35Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a funny story. Actually, my ex's dad owned
- 2:39Speaker 1: one of the hedge funds in China, one of the
- 2:41Speaker 1: biggest ones in Beijing, and he taught me classical economics
- 2:44Speaker 1: when I lived there for two years.
- 2:47Speaker 6: Wow.
- 2:47Speaker 3: You know, like most hedge fund guys will not even
- 2:51Speaker 3: admit that they heard of Ludwig von Misis let alone
- 2:55Speaker 3: espouse Austrian economics because their whole busy. This model works
- 3:01Speaker 3: because of the inefficiencies created by.
- 3:06Speaker 6: The Federal Reserve and Central planning.
- 3:09Speaker 4: Yes, and me, I learned about Austrian economics through like
- 3:12Speaker 4: listening through guys like you and like Mario and Echo.
- 3:15Speaker 4: That's where I first started learning about it, and then
- 3:17Speaker 4: I started doing research on it and actually reading on
- 3:19Speaker 4: it myself.
- 3:20Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 3:20Speaker 3: Well, back when I was in college, I discovered the
- 3:25Speaker 3: Milton Friedman Free to Choose That was a special on
- 3:29Speaker 3: PBS of all shows, all stations.
- 3:31Speaker 6: They would never show that.
- 3:34Speaker 3: Series on PBS again because basically it made the case
- 3:38Speaker 3: for free markets and that a place like Hong Kong
- 3:43Speaker 3: with free markets can prosper have huge wealthy standard of
- 3:49Speaker 3: living and basically that most of the problems. He used
- 3:55Speaker 3: to say, if there's a problem in the world, I
- 3:59Speaker 3: could tell you exactly where it came from the government.
- 4:03Speaker 3: And you know, I wouldn't say all problems are created
- 4:07Speaker 3: by the government, but it's not where problems don't go
- 4:12Speaker 3: to die with the government, they go to get institutionalized.
- 4:19Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, definitely. And you know, in terms of like
- 4:23Speaker 1: free market capitalism, you know, we haven't had that in
- 4:27Speaker 1: the US in a very long time. And like this
- 4:29Speaker 1: whole top down control started with the Hanseatic League back
- 4:32Speaker 1: in the twelve hundreds, where you had them control in
- 4:34Speaker 1: the market from the top down for the oligarchs.
- 4:38Speaker 3: Well, you know, one thing is most people are just
- 4:42Speaker 3: going to go along with everything, right, Yeah, we don't.
- 4:46Speaker 3: We've never had a population of critical thinkers normally. I
- 4:51Speaker 3: was just reading about Socrates because that's Martin Armstrong's pet ai,
- 4:56Speaker 3: and you know, some article popped up about his trial. Basically,
- 5:02Speaker 3: he was a trouble maker and things were really bad,
- 5:05Speaker 3: so he became a scapegoat and they killed him. And
- 5:09Speaker 3: his whole thing was he was a disruptor. He wanted
- 5:14Speaker 3: younger people to be critical thinkers. Think from themselves now.
- 5:19Speaker 3: Instead of that, they just get suppressed by algorithms and
- 5:25Speaker 3: sent sent into the made to sit in the corner
- 5:29Speaker 3: with a hat on that says you're a dunce. Right,
- 5:33Speaker 3: That's what algorithmic suppression does to you. Have you encountered
- 5:38Speaker 3: any blowback from our tech overlords?
- 5:43Speaker 5: You know, feel like we are? I feel like we are.
- 5:46Speaker 4: Some of our videos don't get a lot of views.
- 5:49Speaker 4: One in particularly right now, we've joined like a pretty much.
- 5:52Speaker 4: I guess we'd call it a movement of fight against
- 5:54Speaker 4: naked shorts with Terry Lynch.
- 5:57Speaker 5: And his video it didn't get gone. I think it's
- 6:00Speaker 5: on substack.
- 6:01Speaker 4: It says it's got zero views, and it's got way
- 6:03Speaker 4: more views than that. We've actually watched people watch it
- 6:06Speaker 4: and it still doesn't get any views. So I do
- 6:08Speaker 4: believe we are being soiled it from the lord sucks.
- 6:11Speaker 3: Back is not going to It's not gonna gonna suppress.
- 6:18Speaker 6: I've never heard of that yet.
- 6:20Speaker 3: In fact, a lot of the people who are on
- 6:22Speaker 3: substack are professional journalists who've basically been persecuted. But what
- 6:30Speaker 3: I will tell you is that you know, once you
- 6:34Speaker 3: go out of that little nurturing environment, anything is possible there.
- 6:39Speaker 3: So what's your YouTube channel by the way, right.
- 6:47Speaker 1: Yeah, we are getting suppressed on there. Some of our
- 6:50Speaker 1: videos they get like eighteen views. And like, I think
- 6:54Speaker 1: it has to do with the titling that we use,
- 6:56Speaker 1: because we use kind of like black bild narration titling.
- 6:59Speaker 1: I was a screenwriter in my earliers and I like
- 7:01Speaker 1: to really be dramatic.
- 7:04Speaker 5: He likes a clickbait.
- 7:06Speaker 3: Yeah, as we were discussing, that's not aways your best.
- 7:13Speaker 6: You have to you have to outthink it.
- 7:16Speaker 3: So yeah, so I'm looking at your I can tell
- 7:19Speaker 3: you right now.
- 7:22Speaker 6: Oh yeah, you're you're in no man's land.
- 7:25Speaker 3: That the algorithm has got you, uh basically has put you,
- 7:31Speaker 3: sentence you to Siberia. Yeah, you're in the gulag. You're
- 7:36Speaker 3: in the algorithmic gulog, never to be heard from again.
- 7:40Speaker 3: But I'll tell you some ways to work on that,
- 7:43Speaker 3: because I have one channel. You know, all my channels
- 7:46Speaker 3: have suffered suppression or or lack of distribution, shall we say,
- 7:52Speaker 3: over the years. But there are ways to get over that.
- 7:56Speaker 3: So how do you how else do you get your
- 7:58Speaker 3: message out? You've got a website, right, because.
- 8:01Speaker 4: A club start, right, we do we write an article
- 8:05Speaker 4: like every other day.
- 8:06Speaker 5: Basically we're published an article. I think so far we
- 8:09Speaker 5: have how many articles.
- 8:10Speaker 1: Like over like ninety nine articles, I believe.
- 8:13Speaker 6: Yeah, are you getting some play there?
- 8:15Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 8:15Speaker 1: We got one hundred and fifty two subscribers, eleven hundred followers,
- 8:18Speaker 1: and we're yeah, we're getting some good views.
- 8:22Speaker 4: To some of our views, Like our videos are not
- 8:25Speaker 4: getting views on there? That like I told you the
- 8:28Speaker 4: one from Terry Lynch, that one, like I literally watched
- 8:30Speaker 4: somebody watch it and it's still showing I believe zero.
- 8:33Speaker 4: It's not really showing any any Boddy watching it at all.
- 8:36Speaker 4: And that one's strictly on naked shorts.
- 8:39Speaker 3: Yeah, well that is more a function of substacks lagginess.
- 8:44Speaker 3: It's not they're not suppressing anything legitimately, because I know
- 8:51Speaker 3: I have X number of subs who've signed up recently
- 8:56Speaker 3: and they're fifty behind.
- 8:59Speaker 6: It's just work, just works that way.
- 9:02Speaker 3: So as far as market philosophy goes, how do you guys?
- 9:08Speaker 3: Are you in stocks, precious metals, crypto?
- 9:13Speaker 6: What's your thing?
- 9:14Speaker 1: So I answer that one. I trade everything. I'm a
- 9:18Speaker 1: pretty technical trader.
- 9:20Speaker 5: I like gold and silver.
- 9:21Speaker 1: We buy gold and silver, we stack at platinum, palladium,
- 9:24Speaker 1: even copper boy on. We like that rinium as well.
- 9:26Speaker 1: We believe that you need fungible assets in your portfolio.
- 9:31Speaker 1: We also hold stocks, mostly right now minors. We have
- 9:35Speaker 1: some short positions that we just closed out and we
- 9:38Speaker 1: hit on those last week. We thought the market pullback
- 9:40Speaker 1: was coming based on the vortex. We're trading in Brazil
- 9:44Speaker 1: right now. We've made some good money there. India it's
- 9:46Speaker 1: had a pullback, but I expected to go up higher,
- 9:49Speaker 1: especially with the tariffs. And also we have China exposure.
- 9:53Speaker 1: I've been bulleted on China since twenty twelve. And we
- 9:58Speaker 1: do trade crypto right now. I have position an XLEM.
- 10:01Speaker 1: I got in at thirty seven cents. That was my
- 10:03Speaker 1: target price is at thirty seven thirty nine. I hit
- 10:05Speaker 1: thirty seven, so I bought at thirty nine. I bloted
- 10:07Speaker 1: thirty seven and then with Hbar, I'm waiting and holding off.
- 10:09Speaker 5: I want it.
- 10:10Speaker 1: They hit twenty cents, I'll get in and write it
- 10:11Speaker 1: for the next leg up.
- 10:13Speaker 6: Okay, what's your take on bitcoin?
- 10:16Speaker 4: Uh, We're not big bitcoin fans. We more like the
- 10:20Speaker 4: gold and silver and stuff like that. I mean we
- 10:22Speaker 4: see bitcoin more as like a trading asset. We don't
- 10:25Speaker 4: really necessarily like invest in bitcoin. If we do invest
- 10:29Speaker 4: in bitcoin, it's like what he said, a short position,
- 10:31Speaker 4: like we do ETF short position ETF on bitcoin and
- 10:34Speaker 4: stuff like that. We don't really invest in bitcoin. We
- 10:37Speaker 4: had before, but we've kind of stopped.
- 10:40Speaker 5: Now.
- 10:40Speaker 6: Well, here's here's the thing.
- 10:42Speaker 3: I recommend to type it into any of your ais
- 10:45Speaker 3: and ask them for the case for bitcoin does an
- 10:51Speaker 3: upcoming short squeeze. We're in the midst of it now
- 10:54Speaker 3: of bitcoin, serious short squeeze because all these ETFs are
- 10:59Speaker 3: gobbling up up as many coins as they can get,
- 11:03Speaker 3: you know, billions of dollars a week some weeks go
- 11:05Speaker 3: into those ETFs. Last Friday they puked out like eight
- 11:12Speaker 3: hundred and thirty million worth of bitcoin to drive the
- 11:16Speaker 3: market down. But at the same time, who's buying these coins?
- 11:20Speaker 3: You know, it's like really interesting. So I think it's
- 11:25Speaker 3: going up to eight figures over time because that's the
- 11:30Speaker 3: only thing that they can use to stabilize the upcoming
- 11:34Speaker 3: financial system. I love gold, don't get me wrong, and silver,
- 11:38Speaker 3: but I think that there's too much. Just more gold
- 11:43Speaker 3: is coming into the system, all right, and I don't
- 11:46Speaker 3: think we'll ever have enough, but we're never going to
- 11:49Speaker 3: have the shortage of gold. Like we have a bitcoin
- 11:52Speaker 3: and maybe it'll go up to five thousand, maybe it'll
- 11:54Speaker 3: go up to ten but I don't think it's going
- 11:57Speaker 3: up to ten million unless the value of the dollar
- 12:00Speaker 3: comes worthless anyway.
- 12:01Speaker 6: So how do you manage risk? Well?
- 12:06Speaker 1: I manage risk by watching the technicals, like I look
- 12:09Speaker 1: for a head and shorter pout and inverse out of
- 12:11Speaker 1: short of bare fly, you know, just technical trading. And
- 12:14Speaker 1: whenever we have a formation I don't like, or even
- 12:17Speaker 1: if the vortex is telling me the trigger based on
- 12:19Speaker 1: the selling pattern, when it's descending down in a wedge,
- 12:22Speaker 1: I'll usually trade out and take some profits. And if
- 12:25Speaker 1: I felt like I could write out for a little more,
- 12:26Speaker 1: I'll keep some house money in there, but I'll just
- 12:29Speaker 1: usually take a little bit off the top. I try
- 12:31Speaker 1: to take thirty percent off the top whenever I get
- 12:33Speaker 1: the opportunity each time, and reinvest that into some silver
- 12:37Speaker 1: or usually uh inverse eta or our yeah, something like that.
- 12:41Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 12:41Speaker 3: So you're big on taking your profits when you find them.
- 12:46Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 12:48Speaker 4: Well yeah, we used to hold longer, but we just
- 12:50Speaker 4: started doing that recently part of the last year.
- 12:53Speaker 1: Yeah, I made a stupid choice in there, like I
- 12:55Speaker 1: bet on e hang for the longest time, my body
- 12:59Speaker 1: hang when a seven dollars and eighty nine cents and
- 13:01Speaker 1: it hit like one hundred and fourteen dollars. Now instead
- 13:04Speaker 1: of me take a profit at one hundred and fourteen dollars,
- 13:06Speaker 1: that was like I spllled the two hundred short seller
- 13:08Speaker 1: report came out from Hindenburg. It plummeted, but I did
- 13:11Speaker 1: cash out part of it at eighty dollars. But it
- 13:14Speaker 1: was my greed, like that stopped me. I learned my
- 13:17Speaker 1: lesson from the Hut.
- 13:19Speaker 3: Well, you have to have to be in control of
- 13:22Speaker 3: your emotions, right yeah, yeah, and it's so is here
- 13:29Speaker 3: control your emotions? That is that is the conundrum for
- 13:33Speaker 3: any active trader, right yeah.
- 13:36Speaker 1: Now we deep dive in the company is like for example,
- 13:39Speaker 1: we've had four ten baggers this year. We bought TMC
- 13:42Speaker 1: at what seventy two cents and we sold a lot
- 13:45Speaker 1: of that often it hit eight dollars and I just
- 13:48Speaker 1: based it on like the whole company. It's a it's
- 13:50Speaker 1: a failure idea, Like you can deep sea mind that's
- 13:53Speaker 1: not going to work.
- 13:54Speaker 5: At all.
- 13:54Speaker 1: It's it's a horrible idea. This is more of a
- 13:57Speaker 1: short squeeze play in order to just create some liquidity
- 14:01Speaker 1: and to bring some profit.
- 14:03Speaker 6: It's a game stop.
- 14:05Speaker 1: Yeah, So me knowing that I took my profits when
- 14:08Speaker 1: I had the chance, and even with the company like
- 14:10Speaker 1: Big berr Ai, I bought a big Berry ad a
- 14:12Speaker 1: dollar eighteen and that's hold it at ten bucks because
- 14:15Speaker 1: I knew the whole idea of it was nonsense, like
- 14:18Speaker 1: it's not going to work and it's such a small
- 14:20Speaker 1: MICROCAPI company that it's going to be either merger and
- 14:23Speaker 1: acquisition or it's going to fail. So my baseline was,
- 14:26Speaker 1: I'll let it get to X amount of dollars. If
- 14:28Speaker 1: it hits, I'll cash out and I'll keep a small position.
- 14:30Speaker 1: If it breaks five percent in a day, liquidated because
- 14:34Speaker 1: that five percent tells me an ominous pattern that something
- 14:36Speaker 1: bad is coming.
- 14:38Speaker 6: Yeah, I will.
- 14:39Speaker 3: You know I'm not a good trader, all right, I
- 14:43Speaker 3: knew it, So I have to take a longer horizon
- 14:47Speaker 3: because you know, I just emotionally, temperamentally, I'm just not
- 14:51Speaker 3: set up to do it. But that's why in some
- 14:55Speaker 3: ways buying gold and silver was like the best thing ever,
- 14:58Speaker 3: because even though you want to sell it, it's a
- 15:00Speaker 3: real pain to sell. You know, I got to row
- 15:03Speaker 3: in my car hope that nobody Well, I have to
- 15:06Speaker 3: go find it where it's parked, get it, and then
- 15:11Speaker 3: transport it. And I would just assume not bother with it,
- 15:14Speaker 3: so I don't. And that's like it's the ultimate buy
- 15:17Speaker 3: and whold asset because you can always sell it. It's
- 15:20Speaker 3: not a big deal. I've sold some in the past
- 15:23Speaker 3: to pay for taxes, weddings, bar mitzvahs, but that's the
- 15:28Speaker 3: only reason I did not because I wanted it to
- 15:32Speaker 3: And so you can always sell it, but it's always
- 15:37Speaker 3: a pain to sell it. That's why people go to
- 15:40Speaker 3: ETFs and who knows if they have it what you're
- 15:42Speaker 3: feeling about GLD, SLV they sitting on all that gold
- 15:46Speaker 3: and silver or is it? Is it vapor ware, vapor
- 15:52Speaker 3: vapor metal?
- 15:53Speaker 1: It's vapor were only if they do have any it's
- 15:56Speaker 1: going to go to the big cats because they get
- 15:58Speaker 1: the Stanford delivery before any small timers did. Like if
- 16:01Speaker 1: mom and Pop with the four one k or a
- 16:03Speaker 1: pension have an investment in sl V or GLD, they're
- 16:07Speaker 1: not going to get a dime of that gold they're
- 16:09Speaker 1: gonna get told, well, you messed out. We only had
- 16:11Speaker 1: x amount and we were naked twenty So the person
- 16:14Speaker 1: who has the most exposure and is the biggest like
- 16:17Speaker 1: buyer is going to get the gold. You're not gonna
- 16:19Speaker 1: get ship. You get a paper certificate if anything, from
- 16:22Speaker 1: the sdi C. But you won't get no physical gold.
- 16:25Speaker 1: You just get like some paper contract or some bs
- 16:27Speaker 1: that they're going to generate, maybe a stable coin to
- 16:29Speaker 1: cover it now, because that's the new way of doing it, right.
- 16:32Speaker 4: Yeah, probably prefer the physical because if you don't, you
- 16:34Speaker 4: don't hold it, you don't own it.
- 16:36Speaker 5: Need the physical.
- 16:38Speaker 6: Yeah, yep, so true, man, so true.
- 16:42Speaker 3: I'm a big believer in physical I didn't buying a
- 16:46Speaker 3: silver below spot. I mean, well it was below spot
- 16:49Speaker 3: last week, but you know, after they crashed, After they
- 16:53Speaker 3: crashed silver, it's probably close to spot. And it's so
- 16:59Speaker 3: easy to do, you know some of it. I bought
- 17:03Speaker 3: it thirty forty percent below spot if you could believe it.
- 17:07Speaker 6: So they.
- 17:09Speaker 3: Like, hey, you'll have to like go to my substack
- 17:13Speaker 3: and I'll be writing an article about it, and I'll
- 17:15Speaker 3: throw the link here and you can come find out.
- 17:20Speaker 3: But seriously, guys, So looking ahead, world economy, the United States,
- 17:26Speaker 3: global geoglobal tensions, confrontations, war cycle. According to Martin Armstrong,
- 17:34Speaker 3: we're in the midst of it through twenty twenty five
- 17:38Speaker 3: or six. What's your take on things? Where do you
- 17:42Speaker 3: see things going?
- 17:44Speaker 4: So for me, like, I see what Trump putting the
- 17:47Speaker 4: nuclear on what is it? The silver arm right there,
- 17:50Speaker 4: and then the gravity bombs inside UK. But I watched
- 17:53Speaker 4: oil and oil as it was I think sixty six
- 17:55Speaker 4: dollars today, so it looked like it didn't go up
- 17:56Speaker 4: really at all, which I think when you put the
- 17:59Speaker 4: submar over there first's it went up to like seventy.
- 18:02Speaker 5: So I don't think we're going to war anytime soon.
- 18:05Speaker 4: I think that all this stuff that they're doing with
- 18:08Speaker 4: Russia and all that, I don't think it's going to
- 18:09Speaker 4: leave the war anytime soon. But I am with Martin.
- 18:12Speaker 4: I do believe we are going to a war. I've
- 18:14Speaker 4: always been saying for like the last five six years
- 18:16Speaker 4: now that I believe we're going to be in a
- 18:18Speaker 4: civil war and a world war at the same time.
- 18:20Speaker 4: I think there'll be a civil war in the United
- 18:22Speaker 4: States and a world war going on at the same time,
- 18:24Speaker 4: I don't know if that's actually going to play out.
- 18:27Speaker 5: I do see like it could play out.
- 18:28Speaker 4: I do see like the Maga movement and like the liberals.
- 18:32Speaker 5: I feel like it could play out with that, but
- 18:34Speaker 5: I don't know that it will. But I do see us.
- 18:36Speaker 4: Going into like a world war. Whether it turns nuclear,
- 18:39Speaker 4: I don't know, but I do think it will be like.
- 18:41Speaker 5: A world war.
- 18:42Speaker 4: And I do think there's going to be a lot
- 18:43Speaker 4: of life loss by twenty thirty two. Like what Martin says,
- 18:46Speaker 4: I think they with the.
- 18:48Speaker 3: AI now, a lot of people aren't needed. Their labor
- 18:51Speaker 3: is unnecessary. I don't know what those people are going
- 18:54Speaker 3: to do.
- 18:55Speaker 5: Yeah, that's true.
- 18:56Speaker 1: And my take, my think's a little more brutal than his.
- 19:00Speaker 1: I'm a little darker. But I do believe we're going
- 19:03Speaker 1: to see an escalation in war, at least between proxies.
- 19:06Speaker 1: In August, we're going to see a probably in the
- 19:08Speaker 1: Middle East, an escalation and somewhat in Ukraine. And we
- 19:11Speaker 1: may see remaining conflict in India and Pakistan. In August
- 19:15Speaker 1: and in November we'll see an escalation, and by January
- 19:18Speaker 1: I see at least one tactical nukepiing deployed based on
- 19:21Speaker 1: the current solar cycle. Before this used to be really
- 19:24Speaker 1: common knowledge of the eighteen hundred sunspot theory, and essentially
- 19:27Speaker 1: we are going through sunspot theory. And you know, I
- 19:29Speaker 1: don't know why they stopped teaching this, but it's essentially
- 19:32Speaker 1: when we start cannibalizing ourselves in order to stay warm,
- 19:35Speaker 1: Like it's wintertime, so we start turning panels off the
- 19:38Speaker 1: house and throwing it into the fireplace. Sure, you stay warm,
- 19:40Speaker 1: but your house is now a vacant shell, and for
- 19:43Speaker 1: next winter, you don't have nothing to burn. You burn
- 19:46Speaker 1: through it all because you're just trying to stay warm.
- 19:48Speaker 1: For this punter, well, sorry, I don't mean to be laughing.
- 19:50Speaker 3: It's not funny, but it's but your analogy is funny,
- 19:54Speaker 3: I think spot on. But my whole life, I've got
- 19:59Speaker 3: a few years on you, guys. I remember duck and cover. Okay,
- 20:03Speaker 3: we used to go into the auditorium. I even understand
- 20:06Speaker 3: it is in kindergarten, and we take our coats, our
- 20:10Speaker 3: jackets and put put them over us, and we bend down,
- 20:13Speaker 3: put our heads under the chair in front of us.
- 20:17Speaker 3: And that was duck and cover. And that was going
- 20:20Speaker 3: to protect us when they dropped the bomb. So the
- 20:22Speaker 3: point is, my whole life, it's been one thread after
- 20:27Speaker 3: the next. I'm immune at this point. Like plus, I'm
- 20:30Speaker 3: older than you, my kids are grown. I'm just not
- 20:33Speaker 3: worrying about it. Like, one thing that I preach, if
- 20:37Speaker 3: that's the right term, is live your best life. You know,
- 20:42Speaker 3: do not make your happiness subject to something happening outside
- 20:48Speaker 3: of you, whether it's government, whether it's family. Yeah, you
- 20:52Speaker 3: want to be happy, you want your family to be happy,
- 20:54Speaker 3: but your internal state of happiness is where everything begins
- 20:59Speaker 3: and ends. So my law partner used to say, Kerrie,
- 21:04Speaker 3: the situation is hopeless but never serious, And I find
- 21:08Speaker 3: myself repeating that phrase over and over and over again.

- 22:06Speaker 3: I can't say enough good things about that platform, even
- 22:10Speaker 3: though when I first came across it, I didn't really
- 22:14Speaker 3: get its power. But it's it's evolved, it keeps getting better. Yes,
- 22:18Speaker 3: there are rough edges analytics not the best. They're a
- 22:23Speaker 3: little simplistic, but you got to understand it's not for
- 22:26Speaker 3: you and me. Those analytics. That's for you know, a
- 22:31Speaker 3: guy like Matt Taev who who doesn't know what a
- 22:34Speaker 3: CTR is.
- 22:36Speaker 6: Or you know, or views. He doesn't know any of
- 22:40Speaker 6: that stuff.
- 22:41Speaker 3: It's like he looks, oh I got views. I'm okay.
- 22:44Speaker 3: He doesn't understand any of it. That is the average
- 22:49Speaker 3: substack user. They came, they worked for other media and
- 22:53Speaker 3: then they're doing substack.
