Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Hey, I want to thank you for checking out the podcast,
- 0:01Speaker 1: but did you know that Arrow.net is a podcast network? Yeah,
- 0:05Speaker 1: when you get tired of listening to the rock stars,
- 0:08Speaker 1: the sports stars, the authors, and you're looking for something
- 0:10Speaker 1: with a little bit more of a grip or grit, well,
- 0:13Speaker 1: you can always go into the network. Arrow.net, A-R-R-O-E.net. Enjoy
- 0:19Speaker 1: your exploration. Hello and good morning.
- 0:21Speaker 2: How you doing, dude?
- 0:22Speaker 3: Good. How are you? This is Jared Shock.
- 0:24Speaker 1: Man, dude, it's always a pleasure to share a conversation
- 0:27Speaker 1: with you because you get it, man. You understand that
- 0:29Speaker 1: we just need a little bit of educating out here.
- 0:31Speaker 2: Yes, sir.
- 0:32Speaker 3: Yes, sir. I'm happy to be here. How are you
- 0:34Speaker 3: this morning?
- 0:35Speaker 2: Very, very good.
- 0:36Speaker 1: And I'm very excited to share a conversation with you
- 0:38Speaker 1: in the way that I'll bet you in the next
- 0:40Speaker 1: two to three months, there's going to be a lot
- 0:42Speaker 1: of people knocking on your door going, hey, we need
- 0:44Speaker 1: your help because we can't afford these bills anymore when
- 0:46Speaker 1: it comes to heating and cooling.
- 0:49Speaker 3: I hear you. I totally agree with you. I honestly
- 0:53Speaker 3: get questions about this almost every day.
- 0:57Speaker 2: How do you deal with that?
- 0:57Speaker 1: Because you can't forecast the future. I mean, you've got
- 0:59Speaker 1: to really trust your heart on this one, dude.
- 1:01Speaker 3: You know, there's a couple of things that I very
- 1:06Speaker 3: much trust. I mean, today is election day, right? This
- 1:10Speaker 3: is the day that the collective soul of this country
- 1:15Speaker 3: goes to the polls and and lets their collective voice
- 1:20Speaker 3: be heard right and and to me the our souls
- 1:24Speaker 3: or collective souls who we are fundamentally as people that's
- 1:28Speaker 3: what i that's what that's my energy man that's what
- 1:31Speaker 3: keeps me going because it's all good it's all positive
- 1:34Speaker 3: i've been all over the world and the fundamental truth
- 1:36Speaker 3: is all people are generally good yeah it's uh it's
- 1:40Speaker 3: politics and and and and uh Selfishness. So, you know, fundamentally,
- 1:46Speaker 3: what I will tell you is keep making good decisions
- 1:50Speaker 3: collectively as a as a collective soul in this country
- 1:52Speaker 3: will be OK in the end.
- 1:54Speaker 1: Now, is that the mantra of Turning Point Energy then?
- 1:57Speaker 1: Because that's very positive. That's encouraging for a consumer as
- 2:00Speaker 1: well as somebody whose feet are planted in this soil.
- 2:03Speaker 3: It is. It is definitely how I founded the company
- 2:07Speaker 3: and how we've how we've grown and developed the company.
- 2:10Speaker 3: We invest in every community we work in. We give
- 2:13Speaker 3: back to every community we work in. We realize business
- 2:16Speaker 3: is not a profit machine to get rich. Business is
- 2:21Speaker 3: fundamentally more than one person trying to work together to
- 2:24Speaker 3: do something greater than themselves. So true. And try to
- 2:27Speaker 3: do something greater than yourselves and you keep that focused.
- 2:30Speaker 3: and you realize that your collective good of doing good
- 2:32Speaker 3: for others, you're going to do okay. And we'll figure
- 2:36Speaker 3: out these challenges along the way.
- 2:38Speaker 1: Well, see, I look at your story, and especially when
- 2:40Speaker 1: I dive into Solar Coaster, you're going to think I'm
- 2:43Speaker 1: a fool, but I'm going to take it anyway. And
- 2:46Speaker 1: I always envision Elijah. Elijah's out there, and he knows
- 2:49Speaker 1: the rain is coming, but this sunshine is just beating
- 2:52Speaker 1: down on this country over and over again, three years
- 2:55Speaker 1: in a row. They're in the middle of a drought.
- 2:56Speaker 1: In other words, he did not fail the son and
- 2:59Speaker 1: the son did not fail him. And that's what I
- 3:01Speaker 1: see what you're doing with your life as well. You're
- 3:03Speaker 1: using it as the tool and the gift that it
- 3:05Speaker 1: really is and utilize it in a way that helps
- 3:08Speaker 1: the fellow man.
- 3:09Speaker 3: I am the steward of the gifts that I've been given.
- 3:14Speaker 3: And that's truly how I try to live my life.
- 3:17Speaker 3: I'm not perfect. I promise you that. But I try. Yeah.
- 3:21Speaker 1: What are you learning on a daily basis, though? Because
- 3:23Speaker 1: this has got to be just like radio or even
- 3:26Speaker 1: the penny in our lives.
- 3:27Speaker 2: It is always evolving.
- 3:30Speaker 3: Yes, yes. Nothing stays static. I mean, that's what makes
- 3:35Speaker 3: the solar energy industry really, you know, our lives in
- 3:38Speaker 3: general so interesting. It's always changing. And so for me,
- 3:42Speaker 3: my North Star is, you know, I'll come right back
- 3:44Speaker 3: to it.
- 3:45Speaker 2: It's my soul.
- 3:46Speaker 3: And I'm here to help other people to do better. Right.
- 3:50Speaker 3: Like we're all here for each other. And if you
- 3:52Speaker 3: literally live your life trying to help others, every organized religion,
- 3:57Speaker 3: every major philosopher through time, if you look at what
- 4:00Speaker 3: is the purpose of life, the purpose of life is
- 4:02Speaker 3: very simple. It's to help others. That's how you get
- 4:05Speaker 3: your greatest happiness, your greatest joy.
- 4:07Speaker 1: You know, it really always gets me, and please don't
- 4:09Speaker 1: think I'm doing a judgment call here, but I do
- 4:11Speaker 1: laugh inside when I meet up with the vegans or
- 4:14Speaker 1: people that are trying to lead a clean life when
- 4:16Speaker 1: it comes to food. So I'll bring up solar energy,
- 4:19Speaker 1: and all of a sudden they go, ah. And I'm going,
- 4:21Speaker 1: wait a second, that's clean energy. If you're going to
- 4:23Speaker 1: clean your body, it's the same thing.
- 4:26Speaker 2: Do you not think? I think that if you're going
- 4:27Speaker 2: to do one, you got to do them all. Do
- 4:29Speaker 2: you not?
- 4:29Speaker 3: Yes. Yes, yes. And I think our planet, you know,
- 4:33Speaker 3: planet Earth here is a collective body that we all
- 4:37Speaker 3: rely on. And I think it needs to be clean
- 4:40Speaker 3: and it wants to be clean. And it's up to
- 4:43Speaker 3: us to make it that way. Yes, that is very contradictory.
- 4:46Speaker 3: But we see lots of contradictory things with so many Americans.
- 4:51Speaker 3: You wouldn't believe the number of places where we've gone
- 4:53Speaker 3: to and communities where You go to a poor community
- 4:58Speaker 3: or I call them middle class communities. They generally welcome
- 5:01Speaker 3: you in and they want to work with you. They
- 5:03Speaker 3: would love to bring solar to their community. They see
- 5:05Speaker 3: the economic and tax values and the clean energy values.
- 5:09Speaker 3: The problem is when you go to those rich communities.
- 5:11Speaker 3: The rich communities is where they say, oh, we love solar.
- 5:16Speaker 3: We think this is great, but we don't want it here.
- 5:18Speaker 3: Put it over there. That's the biggest problem where can we,
- 5:24Speaker 3: I think that part of this Society needs to gut
- 5:29Speaker 3: check themselves to your point to stop being so darn
- 5:33Speaker 3: vegan about their body and think about the larger, the
- 5:35Speaker 3: bigger picture here.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Well, one thing that I've always been very proud of
- 5:38Speaker 1: North Carolina and is the fact that they've turned it
- 5:41Speaker 1: into an agriculture. I mean, you can be driving down
- 5:44Speaker 1: the highway and here is this amazing solar field and
- 5:48Speaker 1: we know exactly what they're doing. And it's helping us
- 5:51Speaker 1: in this community. I wish people would just truly understand
- 5:55Speaker 1: the process and the requirement of what it is that
- 5:57Speaker 1: you're doing.
- 5:58Speaker 3: You know, and it's really interesting. I've kind of been
- 6:01Speaker 3: getting into this new thing called regenerative farming. And it's
- 6:07Speaker 3: a concept where you grow lots of different crops, shade
- 6:10Speaker 3: crops and sun crops and all these things together in
- 6:12Speaker 3: a way that– and trees and all kinds of things
- 6:15Speaker 3: in a way that they're transforming parts of deserts into
- 6:19Speaker 3: become forests and farmland through this whole natural process. And so, interestingly,
- 6:28Speaker 3: my wife is in the wine industry, and we just
- 6:31Speaker 3: got back from visiting a couple of vineyards, and this
- 6:35Speaker 3: is a huge discussion there. Climate change is making it
- 6:39Speaker 3: so darn warm that they can't do what they want
- 6:41Speaker 3: to do. They can't produce the same kind of crops
- 6:44Speaker 3: they've always been able to produce. And so they're thinking,
- 6:46Speaker 3: you know, maybe we put solar in the farm.
- 6:49Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 6:50Speaker 3: You know, it just helps shade the grapes during different
- 6:52Speaker 3: parts of the year and different parts of the day.
- 6:55Speaker 3: And that shade obviously helps them produce healthier, better crops.
- 6:59Speaker 3: And on top of that, they're using natural sun.
- 7:04Speaker 2: Please don't move.
- 7:04Speaker 1: There's more on the way from Jared Shock from Turning
- 7:07Speaker 1: Point Energy coming up next. The name of the book,
- 7:11Speaker 1: Solar Coaster, but there is so much more to him
- 7:14Speaker 1: and his projects than just a book. Turning Point Energy.
- 7:18Speaker 1: Find out more about that. We are back with Jared Shock.
- 7:21Speaker 1: I swear we're getting smarter, but we're trying to get
- 7:24Speaker 1: it Amazon tougher. In other words, we want it right now.
- 7:26Speaker 1: We don't want to build it later. We don't want
- 7:28Speaker 1: to sit here and say, oh, we got to wait
- 7:30Speaker 1: 10 more years.
- 7:30Speaker 3: No.
- 7:31Speaker 1: And that's the thing about it is that you're educating
- 7:33Speaker 1: us in a way of saying it's going to happen.
- 7:35Speaker 1: Just have patience and let's work together as a community. Yeah.
- 7:38Speaker 3: I mean, two thirds of all new electricity coming on
- 7:43Speaker 3: in the United States in the next five, 10 years
- 7:45Speaker 3: is is all going to be solar and solar energy storage.
- 7:50Speaker 3: And it's just happening. And it is, it takes a
- 7:52Speaker 3: long time and it's frustratingly slow. But it's happening, and
- 7:57Speaker 3: we are transforming our energy future right now, which is
- 8:01Speaker 3: very exciting. We're at 47% non-carbon generating electricity today, if
- 8:07Speaker 3: you think of solar, wind, hydro, nuclear. And so we're
- 8:11Speaker 3: about to cross over 50%. And I'm telling you, 10 years,
- 8:13Speaker 3: we'll be talking about 60%, 60% plus.
- 8:14Speaker 2: We'll be getting there.
- 8:15Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 8:20Speaker 1: What about these data centers? We're going to need you
- 8:23Speaker 1: big time there. Are you going in that direction as well?
- 8:25Speaker 1: Or are we just assuming on this side of the speaker?
- 8:28Speaker 3: You know, we looked really, really hard at data centers
- 8:31Speaker 3: and a lot of the companies in our and really
- 8:35Speaker 3: looking at it because of the data center industry has
- 8:37Speaker 3: come to us asking us to engage. And so I
- 8:41Speaker 3: think providing solar for them is easy. But I think
- 8:44Speaker 3: what we look at is. We need to help them
- 8:47Speaker 3: develop their data centers smarter, better, more efficient, and use
- 8:52Speaker 3: a better approach. But I will tell you, after years
- 8:55Speaker 3: worth of research, we decided that we will support them
- 9:00Speaker 3: and help them and bring in good energy, but we're
- 9:02Speaker 3: not going to do data centers for them or with them.
- 9:06Speaker 3: They need to figure this out for themselves. They're going
- 9:08Speaker 3: through what is a lot of scrutiny right now, and
- 9:11Speaker 3: they should be. And we've got to do it better
- 9:15Speaker 3: and smarter. After years worth of research, what I can
- 9:17Speaker 3: tell you, it can be done smart. It can be
- 9:20Speaker 3: done efficiently, and it can be done a lot better.
- 9:22Speaker 3: And there are new energy development companies that are moving
- 9:26Speaker 3: into data-centered development, and that gives me hope.
- 9:29Speaker 1: What about people like myself who love this planet so
- 9:32Speaker 1: much that we embrace this forest? We planted 1,700 trees
- 9:36Speaker 1: in 1997. Well, we wanted to get the solar energy.
- 9:39Speaker 1: Too many trees, dude. And now I'm looking at these
- 9:42Speaker 1: children that I put in there as seedlings.
- 9:44Speaker 2: I'm going, what do I do? What do I do?
- 9:46Speaker 1: Is solar energy changing to the area of that? Those
- 9:49Speaker 1: that do love their trees don't have to chop them down.
- 9:53Speaker 3: In order to get solar. You know, it's interesting. You
- 9:57Speaker 3: have to respect both. I think you have to be
- 10:00Speaker 3: strategic about where do you want your trees and your
- 10:02Speaker 3: forests to be. And we need as many of those
- 10:05Speaker 3: as we can get to your point, no question. At
- 10:07Speaker 3: the same time, we need solar energy. So there's this
- 10:11Speaker 3: interesting pro-con that kind of goes with this. when we
- 10:15Speaker 3: have done a lot of work with trees and forests
- 10:18Speaker 3: and solar, what we look at is how old are
- 10:21Speaker 3: these forests? How, you know, if there's 30, 50, 70
- 10:25Speaker 3: years old and the trees are all dying and falling
- 10:27Speaker 3: down and there's not enough, a lot coming through, what
- 10:30Speaker 3: happens is at the end of life, trees let go
- 10:32Speaker 3: of carbon. It goes back into the air. That doesn't
- 10:35Speaker 3: help any of us. If there are other, obviously younger
- 10:37Speaker 3: trees coming up, well, that's a good regenerative process, sustainable forest.
- 10:41Speaker 3: If it's not, and it was a one-time kind of
- 10:43Speaker 3: a thing, Or if it's a dying part of a forest,
- 10:47Speaker 3: that's not a bad place to target. Maybe that's a
- 10:49Speaker 3: good place for solar. Yeah.
- 10:51Speaker 1: How do you stay so focused on fortitude and purpose? Because, man,
- 10:54Speaker 1: you're driving. I love where your energy is and your
- 10:58Speaker 1: focus is spot on, dude.
- 11:00Speaker 3: Well, thank you very much. I, I, I, I continually
- 11:05Speaker 3: develop my soul like a muscle, right? It's like anything else.
- 11:09Speaker 3: And so what does that mean? Like it's, it's, it's,
- 11:12Speaker 3: it's eating, right? It's trying to get good sleep. And
- 11:15Speaker 3: then it's like, it's like getting the temple, the body
- 11:18Speaker 3: ready to support everything. It's meditation.
- 11:21Speaker 1: Yes.
- 11:21Speaker 3: It's, it's spiritual reading. It's, it's giving back charitably to
- 11:25Speaker 3: the community whenever you can, however you can. And actually
- 11:28Speaker 3: getting involved with charities. And I think the last thing is,
- 11:32Speaker 3: and this is controversial these days, organized religion, which I
- 11:37Speaker 3: actually participate in and I love. Now, a lot of
- 11:40Speaker 3: people don't, but a lot of people, you know, I
- 11:43Speaker 3: think a lot of people got really angry with their
- 11:45Speaker 3: churches years and years ago. And I think it would
- 11:48Speaker 3: be amazing if they went back and yelled and screamed
- 11:51Speaker 3: at the heads of their church and realized that they
- 11:55Speaker 3: agree and they want you back. So what I've learned
- 11:59Speaker 3: through that process You know, my time here on this
- 12:02Speaker 3: planet is very simple. And that is that, you know,
- 12:05Speaker 3: organized religion is challenging because it is run by people
- 12:10Speaker 3: and people are flawed. But the religion itself is pretty
- 12:14Speaker 3: darn good.
- 12:14Speaker 1: I'm so glad that you brought that up because I
- 12:16Speaker 1: just did a big story on iHeartRadio this week. And
- 12:18Speaker 1: this is going to shock you. And this is where
- 12:20Speaker 1: I need you as a team player as well, being
- 12:22Speaker 1: a Christian. And that is, is that 100,000 churches are
- 12:25Speaker 1: expected to close in 10 years. 100,000. That means the
- 12:29Speaker 1: numbers are dropping. The thing is, is that we need
- 12:32Speaker 1: people like you to testify in the way of saying,
- 12:35Speaker 1: but it does work and we need more people on board.
- 12:38Speaker 1: And your testimony really is a brilliant walking path is
- 12:41Speaker 1: what it is.
- 12:43Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you very, very much. I appreciate that. I
- 12:45Speaker 3: try really hard. I work with, I'd say at least
- 12:49Speaker 3: half if not more than the people I work with
- 12:51Speaker 3: every single day are not Christian. And I don't go
- 12:55Speaker 3: try to push them to become Christian. I don't push
- 12:58Speaker 3: my beliefs on them. What I do is I show
- 13:01Speaker 3: my life by example. And and if they want to engage,
- 13:05Speaker 3: I'm happy to engage. Right. And for me, that's turned
- 13:08Speaker 3: into a lot of really cool conversations and a really
- 13:12Speaker 3: cool community of people like in my life that are
- 13:15Speaker 3: just awesome. But I will also say like the.
- 13:19Speaker 2: I agree.
- 13:20Speaker 3: For years and years, there's been this reduction in organized religion.
- 13:24Speaker 3: It seems to me it's swinging back, though. I sense
- 13:28Speaker 3: a lot of a swing back. In my community up
- 13:30Speaker 3: in the mountains in Colorado, we're actually growing again for
- 13:34Speaker 3: the first time in a long, long time. New York
- 13:35Speaker 3: City has this huge growth going on in organized Christian
- 13:40Speaker 3: religion as well. It's this really interesting new shift, and
- 13:44Speaker 3: we're hopeful it takes hold.
- 13:46Speaker 1: Can I get a little personal here in the way
- 13:48Speaker 1: where my heart is? And if you want me to,
- 13:50Speaker 1: I can edit this out. And the personal question is,
- 13:53Speaker 1: can we get your solar energy into Gaza? Can we
- 13:55Speaker 1: get it over there into Ukraine? I want those countries
- 13:58Speaker 1: to come back and I want them to be strong.
- 14:00Speaker 1: They're going to need energy coming from somewhere. There are
- 14:02Speaker 1: no dams. I don't know how they're going to do it.
- 14:05Speaker 1: And you seem to be the answer with solar energy.
- 14:08Speaker 3: Thank you for that. I appreciate that. I mean, obviously,
- 14:11Speaker 3: no new energy generation resource and war go together. It's
- 14:15Speaker 3: a bad combination. That's a bad combination. But what I
- 14:18Speaker 3: will definitely tell you is, you know, those countries all
- 14:23Speaker 3: have to rebuild. Right. There has to be a rebuild
- 14:27Speaker 3: and rebuild, you know, at the scale, the length and
- 14:31Speaker 3: time and pain of war. for the people, for the
- 14:34Speaker 3: infrastructure collectively as humanity, we owe it upon those people
- 14:38Speaker 3: to help them. Yes, sir. And so from my perspective, yeah,
- 14:42Speaker 3: we should all roll up our sleeves and go help. And, and,
- 14:45Speaker 3: and that means that means solar, if that means wind,
- 14:48Speaker 3: you know, whatever it means, let's go do that. And,
- 14:51Speaker 3: and I, you know, we just need the bombs to
- 14:53Speaker 3: stop dropping so that we can all go help. And I,
- 14:57Speaker 3: I just, you know, that, that comes back to, you know,
- 15:00Speaker 3: listening to those keys for peace and praying for peace
- 15:04Speaker 3: and trying to get us back to peace. It seems
- 15:06Speaker 3: like we, we went a long time without any major
- 15:09Speaker 3: war and bad. Here we are again. And so hopefully,
- 15:12Speaker 3: hopefully we're going to learn some hard lessons collectively and
- 15:16Speaker 3: get better here.
- 15:17Speaker 1: Well, as my pastor, Stephen Furtick always says, how is
- 15:19Speaker 1: God moving through you? Well, this is where we get
- 15:21Speaker 1: to stand back and take good notes. We're going to
- 15:23Speaker 1: see it happening. And obviously it's happening through you because
- 15:26Speaker 1: I'm following witness to it right now, sir.
- 15:28Speaker 3: Hey, I really, really appreciate it. Love your pastor's message.
- 15:32Speaker 3: That's an awesome message. And I really, look, I mean, we,
- 15:38Speaker 3: I think that all people generally agree on, I'd say
- 15:41Speaker 3: two thirds, if not three quarters of everything. We have
- 15:45Speaker 3: differences on the small pieces and parts. You know, my
- 15:50Speaker 3: wife and I disagree on some very important things, but
- 15:53Speaker 3: we've disagreed with each other with so much respect and love.
- 15:57Speaker 3: and we've cherished and process each other's positions and thoughts
- 16:01Speaker 3: over decades to really try to understand each other's positions
- 16:06Speaker 3: so that we can figure out a common ground to
- 16:08Speaker 3: live together.
- 16:08Speaker 1: Right.
- 16:08Speaker 3: And if I could do it with my wife at home,
- 16:10Speaker 3: for God's sakes, we could do out there in the world.
- 16:12Speaker 1: You know what we, you go through a thing in
- 16:14Speaker 1: life and I, and I want young lovers to really
- 16:16Speaker 1: understand this, that you, you sure in the beginning stages,
- 16:18Speaker 1: you have those little squabbles, but as you get older
- 16:21Speaker 1: and somebody on the other side of your, your, your relationship, you,
- 16:24Speaker 1: says something that really is kind of ruffling, you just
- 16:26Speaker 1: sit there and go, hmm. You know, that's all you do.
- 16:28Speaker 1: You just give them that little, hmm, okay. And you
- 16:31Speaker 1: learn together. You open that door. And to me, there's
- 16:35Speaker 1: solar energy in your soul that needs that as well.
- 16:37Speaker 1: And I think you're promoting that as well, sir, to
- 16:39Speaker 1: believe in your relationship, to have that energy growing because
- 16:44Speaker 1: the sunlight is in your heart at all times as well.
- 16:47Speaker 3: Yeah. Our, our, our hearts generate their own electricity and
- 16:50Speaker 3: that's a fact. That's a fact. It's kind of crazy
- 16:53Speaker 3: to think about that all by itself, but literally, yes,
- 16:56Speaker 3: it's true. We, we generate our own electricity as human beings.
- 17:00Speaker 3: And so like literally, you know, what we've done, the
- 17:05Speaker 3: evolution of where we are from hundreds of years ago
- 17:08Speaker 3: to today and where we're going and what's our purpose
- 17:10Speaker 3: and all the rest, I will tell you, like for me, it's, it's,
- 17:15Speaker 3: you know, go find your go find a partner that believes,
- 17:23Speaker 3: you know, with a similar purpose and will be supportive
- 17:27Speaker 3: to you and you can be supportive of them and
- 17:29Speaker 3: go live your best life. Wow.
- 17:31Speaker 1: Where can people go to find out more about everything
- 17:34Speaker 1: that you're doing? Because there's so much to digest and
- 17:37Speaker 1: I want them to have that relationship with you.
- 17:41Speaker 3: Thank you very much. It is solarcoasterproject.com. Solarcoasterproject.com is the
- 17:47Speaker 3: the source of all things, uh, book and, and approach. Uh, we're,
- 17:51Speaker 3: we're not just, you know, publishing a book. Um, I'm
- 17:54Speaker 3: speaking at the university of Denver, uh, in a couple
- 17:58Speaker 3: of weeks. Um, I'm then going to Las Vegas, uh,
- 18:01Speaker 3: the largest renewable energy conference in North America to speak, uh,
- 18:05Speaker 3: Scott Kelly is going to interview me on stage in
- 18:07Speaker 3: a couple of weeks. Really? Wow. The 17th of November,
- 18:11Speaker 3: there'll be a bunch of video going, I hope, viral
- 18:14Speaker 3: after that. And then I've got several other university trips,
- 18:18Speaker 3: Fordham University in New York. Little University in New Orleans,
- 18:22Speaker 3: and we're setting up more universities to go speak with,
- 18:25Speaker 3: companies to speak with. Really, you know, trying to figure
- 18:29Speaker 3: out how can I help?
- 18:30Speaker 1: Well, see, that's every bit the reason why we got
- 18:32Speaker 1: to talk again next spring, because you know that in
- 18:34Speaker 1: the next three to four months, it's all going to
- 18:36Speaker 1: change because we've got El Nino that's about ready to
- 18:38Speaker 1: hit us. And we're going to sit here and we're
- 18:40Speaker 1: going to go through these challenges again. And we need
- 18:42Speaker 1: someone like yourself that's going to reassure us that there
- 18:46Speaker 1: is a way to power. We've just got to work
- 18:48Speaker 1: as a community to get there.
- 18:50Speaker 3: Would love to do it. I really appreciate the time
- 18:53Speaker 3: and love what you do too.
- 18:54Speaker 2: Well, you be brilliant today. Okay, sir.
- 18:56Speaker 3: All right. God bless.
- 18:58Speaker 2: Same to you. And thank you so much.
