- 0:08Speaker 1: It's the morning. It is 6 a.m. Every once in
- 0:15Speaker 1: a blue moon, I'm not even centered.
- 0:17Speaker 2: I don't care. Every once in a blue moon.
- 0:21Speaker 1: I have to do an interview at 7 in the morning,
- 0:26Speaker 1: my time, Pacific. My desk is just like, I'm sorry,
- 0:31Speaker 1: it's just a mess. I have so many things to do.
- 0:34Speaker 1: I'm just not able to do anything. Anyway, I'm sorry.
- 0:40Speaker 1: It's like, I get something's wrong. And at 6 a.m.,
- 0:45Speaker 1: if they are Central or Eastern time, they only have
- 0:48Speaker 1: early morning available and they're a guest I really want.
- 0:52Speaker 1: I'll make exceptions. And I'm like, I have to do
- 0:57Speaker 1: the exercise. Do you have some water on? My bro
- 1:06Speaker 1: texted me. Come with me as I answer my brother.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Answer my brother. One second. Follow me.
- 1:20Speaker 1: I'm going through my house because I don't want to
- 1:23Speaker 1: stop this video.
- 1:28Speaker 2: What's your question? Do you have some water on? No, why?
- 1:31Speaker 2: What's in there? Folks can come with me as I
- 1:35Speaker 2: go into my brother's bathroom and see what's going on. Yep,
- 1:41Speaker 2: I hear some water. Nope. I'll just have to... So.
- 1:49Speaker 1: I gotta figure this out. So I can't figure it
- 1:51Speaker 1: out right now. I'll figure it out after my shows. Okay,
- 1:55Speaker 1: so we have an issue. Possibly with a piping issue.
- 2:01Speaker 1: But I can't deal with it right now. And this
- 2:03Speaker 1: is my life. My life is every five minutes something's
- 2:07Speaker 1: going on.
- 2:10Speaker 2: And so....
- 2:16Speaker 1: I can't even deal with it until later. So, that's
- 2:24Speaker 1: my life.
- 2:24Speaker 2: It's 6 a.m. and I'm already dealing with a possible
- 2:27Speaker 2: plumbing issue. And I.
- 2:34Speaker 1: Have two shows to do back-to-back. I have so many
- 2:38Speaker 1: phone calls to make. I have so many emails to do.
- 2:41Speaker 2: And today, tonight... I'm going to a Maurice Bernard event.
- 2:49Speaker 1: So, I'm getting texts right now. But yeah, so I
- 2:55Speaker 1: have a Maurice Bernard event tonight. I got pulled together. So,
- 3:01Speaker 1: oh my goodness. So I'm about to call a plumber
- 3:05Speaker 1: first today to see if we can get somebody out here.
- 3:07Speaker 1: So I'm gonna come back and do another video. I'm
- 3:10Speaker 1: just gonna take care of something really quick and I'll
- 3:11Speaker 1: come back and do a video. So it may not
- 3:13Speaker 1: be a plumbing issue. I went up, I sat, I
- 3:17Speaker 1: went back along to the front, and I got to stop.
- 3:20Speaker 1: So I think it was just the toilet was taking
- 3:22Speaker 1: a long time to do whatever it was doing.
- 3:25Speaker 2: It was cycling or whatever.
- 3:26Speaker 1: So, you know, when you live in older houses and things,
- 3:31Speaker 1: sometimes things get old.
- 3:33Speaker 2: Well, I have to have a new toilet. I got
- 3:35Speaker 2: a new one.
- 3:36Speaker 1: I bought it. And I got to have it installed.
- 3:41Speaker 1: But first, I got to pay for my property tax. Uh,
- 3:45Speaker 1: we have, I probably texted split the two payments, so
- 3:47Speaker 1: I gotta pay the first one, we gotta pay the
- 3:49Speaker 1: first one, so I gotta use that money for that first,
- 3:52Speaker 1: but I'll make the money to.
- 3:55Speaker 2: Get it, I'm working this week, I'm working a lot
- 3:56Speaker 2: this week.
- 3:57Speaker 1: Thank you God, I have a lot of work ahead
- 3:59Speaker 1: of me, I'm working seven days a week, I work
- 4:01Speaker 1: seven days a week, you guys, I'm tired, but nothing
- 4:06Speaker 1: to do about it, I have to work.
- 4:07Speaker 2: Right now it's a feast. Feast.
- 4:13Speaker 1: So as an entrepreneur, you have feast or famine. And
- 4:16Speaker 1: right now I'm feast. I got all this stuff coming
- 4:18Speaker 1: my direction. And people are trying to pile more work
- 4:21Speaker 1: on me. The best thing is I had to thank
- 4:25Speaker 1: Tammy Govea. It was like yesterday, everybody had a million
- 4:31Speaker 1: questions for me. It was just one of those days
- 4:32Speaker 1: where everybody had a million questions. And I just was like,
- 4:34Speaker 1: I have no answers for you. I am so.
- 4:37Speaker 2: Tired and busy and just can't think. It was a lot.
- 4:44Speaker 1: And everybody was asking me, just everybody was asking me questions.
- 4:47Speaker 1: And so I'm glad a few people took their own initiatives.
- 4:53Speaker 1: And I was like, thank you. You know, being in charge,
- 4:58Speaker 1: personally and professionally, it's not as fun as you think.
- 5:01Speaker 1: And I'm by myself. I'm the one in charge. I
- 5:05Speaker 1: do everything myself. It's like, it's not, I mean, yes,
- 5:08Speaker 1: I can be my own boss. I'm not going to
- 5:10Speaker 1: pretend why.
- 5:11Speaker 2: I like that.
- 5:11Speaker 1: But, Sometimes you want help. Sometimes you wish somebody would
- 5:17Speaker 1: just come in and say, I'll make a decision. And
- 5:21Speaker 1: there was something that was not that serious, but Tammy
- 5:25Speaker 1: decided to really kind of go all out on this thing,
- 5:30Speaker 1: but she used.
- 5:30Speaker 2: Figuring it out. I said, thank you. You figure it out,
- 5:33Speaker 2: I'm just going.
- 5:34Speaker 1: To show up, and you're going to show up, tell
- 5:36Speaker 1: me what to do, and we're going to work it out.
- 5:39Speaker 1: That's how I want to do it.
- 5:41Speaker 2: I'm like, okay.
- 5:42Speaker 1: But I just, I can't do everything. I've had to
- 5:47Speaker 1: push off stuff to other people. Sorry, can't do it anymore. Sorry,
- 5:50Speaker 1: can't do it. I just, I can't. It's just, it's
- 5:54Speaker 1: a lot. And there's some things, this is a great thing,
- 6:00Speaker 1: anybody who's in charge has to really think about. Some
- 6:05Speaker 1: things will be passed on to other people. And I
- 6:07Speaker 1: don't have that thing of like, I gotta make sure
- 6:11Speaker 1: everything is perfect.
- 6:12Speaker 2: I don't give a fuck about that shit. I don't care. Goodbye.
- 6:20Speaker 2: I sent....
- 6:23Speaker 1: I am sorry. I sent two pictures to my.
- 6:30Speaker 2: Hey, my... Okay. I'll be right back. I'm back. I'm back.
- 6:38Speaker 1: I would have sworn I sent these two pictures to Mike.
- 6:44Speaker 2: Eric dropped into my computer and he did not show up.
- 6:46Speaker 2: I'm like, what is going on? Downloads. I'm getting ready
- 6:50Speaker 2: for an interview with a guy. His book is thick, too.
- 6:54Speaker 2: Thick and juicy. It's called Stay Thirsty.
- 6:56Speaker 1: This guy is a shared entrepreneur. He gets it done.
- 7:01Speaker 1: I think it's a really good book. I think we're
- 7:04Speaker 1: going to have a good conversation. And That's why I
- 7:09Speaker 1: was like, I'll go a little early for you. Then
- 7:12Speaker 1: I have a chick afterwards. I can't tell if we're
- 7:14Speaker 1: interviewing today or just meeting today. So I'm not prepared
- 7:19Speaker 1: for that interview. I'm not going to tell her I'm
- 7:20Speaker 1: not prepared for it. We're going to have to reschedule
- 7:22Speaker 1: because I'm thinking it's just the interview. It means it's
- 7:25Speaker 1: a talk. So I thought it was the interview, but
- 7:27Speaker 1: she says something like, look forward to our chat.
- 7:31Speaker 2: I'm like, chat? I'm not sure what's going on. Then
- 7:36Speaker 2: I got folks sending me things. Oh my God.
- 7:39Speaker 1: Oh, it's called discovery call. That's what's throwing me. That's
- 7:41Speaker 1: just throwing me off. So I'm just going to, I'm like,
- 8:00Speaker 1: I'm thrown off.
- 8:01Speaker 2: Fuck. I didn't. Okay. Well, you know what?
- 8:08Speaker 1: I just, you know, I just, sometimes things slip through
- 8:13Speaker 1: the cracks. Sometimes things get confusing because you're just so busy.
- 8:17Speaker 1: My house is a mess. I'm just too busy.
- 8:22Speaker 2: It's a mess. I have shit everywhere. Everywhere. I hate it.
- 8:28Speaker 2: I hate it.
- 8:28Speaker 1: I don't have any time right now to, or energy,
- 8:33Speaker 1: to clean it.
- 8:35Speaker 2: So the actual cleaning, this.
- 8:37Speaker 1: Stuff I have to do myself because it's just my
- 8:40Speaker 1: personal thing. But I'm going to hire some people to
- 8:44Speaker 1: come in once I get my toilet installed to actually
- 8:48Speaker 1: clean my house. Clean the rooms I really need, like
- 8:51Speaker 1: my kitchen, service porch, dining room, both bathrooms. Clean those,
- 8:57Speaker 1: I'll be so happy. I can take care of my
- 8:59Speaker 1: room at some point. I need a day. I don't
- 9:04Speaker 1: know what I'm going to do yet, but I need
- 9:09Speaker 1: a day. I need a day just to, like, be
- 9:13Speaker 1: able to do it. And I took a bowl bath
- 9:16Speaker 1: the other night. I was like, James, like, Junior, you
- 9:19Speaker 1: got to take care of some self-care.
- 9:20Speaker 2: I did a bowl bath. And it was the best
- 9:24Speaker 2: thing ever. It was the best thing.
- 9:33Speaker 1: Thing ever. I'm trying to make sure I get all
- 9:45Speaker 1: the sleep out of my eyes. I'm tired still. I
- 9:56Speaker 1: shaved my head yesterday, so it's fine. Yeah, so I
- 10:00Speaker 1: reached for another thing tonight. You know, part of me
- 10:03Speaker 1: doesn't want to go just because I'm tired. But then
- 10:07Speaker 1: part of me wants to go because I want to
- 10:08Speaker 1: see everybody. It's going to be a good event.
- 10:13Speaker 2: I'm so exhausted.
- 10:15Speaker 1: Oh, my God. I got pulled together. I got pulled together.
- 10:20Speaker 1: And then tomorrow and Thursday, I'm out of the office.
- 10:22Speaker 1: That takes away from all my work during the day.
- 10:24Speaker 1: And I have bad service where I go to work.
- 10:28Speaker 1: I'm an organizing client. I love her. And I love,
- 10:31Speaker 1: we're in Hermosa Beach, which is right by the beach.
- 10:33Speaker 2: It's great.
- 10:34Speaker 1: Right now, I'm working on her garage. And I'm really
- 10:36Speaker 1: getting stuff done in there. It's this bad service. The
- 10:42Speaker 1: service isn't the greatest. So I can't really conduct really
- 10:46Speaker 1: any business while I'm there. So that's eight hours I'm
- 10:48Speaker 1: doing that. Usually I come home, eat something, and then
- 10:56Speaker 1: I work another six hours on the media stuff just
- 10:59Speaker 1: to keep up. So today I'm going to try to
- 11:03Speaker 1: do as much as I can. I'm about to stop
- 11:05Speaker 1: around three. I think I can pick my outfit, too.
- 11:09Speaker 1: I have some pants I think I'll wear. I don't
- 11:10Speaker 1: know what top I want to wear. It's on a
- 11:14Speaker 1: rooftop thing, so I don't know if it's indoor or outdoor.
- 11:18Speaker 1: The weather is really weird here because it's like, Not
- 11:22Speaker 1: super hot, but then it got cold last night and windy,
- 11:25Speaker 1: and I was like, and we're going from 6 to 9,
- 11:30Speaker 1: but we're pressed, so we kind of set a meet
- 11:32Speaker 1: at 4.30.
- 11:33Speaker 2: I'll push it more to 5 for me, and we'll see.
- 11:39Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 11:40Speaker 1: I'm just like, oh, my God. I'm so tired. I
- 11:46Speaker 1: want to lay down. I just want to lay down.
- 11:48Speaker 1: But I do want to go to this event. I
- 11:50Speaker 1: want to see who's going to show up. We'll be
- 11:53Speaker 1: able to get interviews, there's content. And I've been really
- 11:57Speaker 1: wanting to do more events. Unlike when I can't do
- 12:00Speaker 1: the Emmys inside. We're going to do something outside. But I,
- 12:05Speaker 1: and that's, it's funny, there's one person, I remember years
- 12:09Speaker 1: ago when I talked shit about the Emmys, when they
- 12:12Speaker 1: screwed me over.
- 12:13Speaker 2: Oh, he's already in the chat already. He's early. Yeah.
- 12:22Speaker 1: That I remember telling them, I remember talking to people like, James,
- 12:26Speaker 1: you're going to ruin your chances with the Emmys, and
- 12:28Speaker 1: I'm going to see it.
- 12:29Speaker 2: And I remember one guy was like, maybe because you
- 12:31Speaker 2: talk shit.
- 12:32Speaker 1: On your shows, and they don't want to, I'm like,
- 12:34Speaker 1: they don't, I'm like, no, that's not even it, because I'm,
- 12:36Speaker 1: because I'm friends with all the networks, and all the networks,
- 12:40Speaker 1: and they watch our show, they know what we do.
- 12:42Speaker 2: We don't just talk shit about the shows.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Like, we get guests, it's like, I have great relationships
- 12:46Speaker 1: with everybody, that's not even it. Um, and, um, And
- 12:50Speaker 1: I said, we're going to be outside the Emmys. You
- 12:55Speaker 1: make me look like a crazed fan. I'm like, no,
- 12:59Speaker 1: that's not going to happen. I'm going to look like
- 13:01Speaker 1: a crazed fan. And number two, there's no rules that
- 13:05Speaker 1: say I can't be at the Emmys outside.
- 13:07Speaker 2: I was outside.
- 13:10Speaker 1: I couldn't get inside. So I can't get inside. There's
- 13:14Speaker 1: nobody saying I can't talk to anybody outside the Emmys.
- 13:17Speaker 1: There's no rules to that. It's the street. I can
- 13:21Speaker 1: be on the street. I can film the building. There's
- 13:26Speaker 1: no rules that I can't do that. Plus, you have
- 13:30Speaker 1: no idea what I'm going to do. Plus, the Nats
- 13:32Speaker 1: doesn't care about me.
- 13:34Speaker 2: They don't care. They're not checking for me at all.
- 13:38Speaker 2: We're planning something. It's going to be fun. I'm trying
- 13:43Speaker 2: to get out to more events. More red carpets. More events.
- 13:47Speaker 2: I got to network more. I do. I got to.
- 13:50Speaker 1: When I was in Indiana, I was out all the time.
- 13:55Speaker 2: Meeting people, doing stuff. I was tired.
- 13:57Speaker 1: It's 6.52 now. I should probably get... This guy is
- 14:02Speaker 1: on early. I probably should do it so we can
- 14:05Speaker 1: be done early. Oh, excuse me. Did I just do
- 14:09Speaker 1: that on camera? Oh, my God. How rude. What I'm
- 14:14Speaker 1: going to do... I took my pills.
- 14:16Speaker 2: I have my coffee. I'm like, I'm going to do
- 14:17Speaker 2: it right now.
- 14:18Speaker 1: I may come out a little later and continue this.
- 14:22Speaker 1: I haven't done a vlog like this in a long time,
- 14:25Speaker 1: so we'll see.
- 14:26Speaker 2: Bye. So this is one of my post offices. Here
- 14:30Speaker 2: are the airplanes coming that way. I'll get one earlier.
- 14:33Speaker 2: And we come in here.
- 14:35Speaker 1: Ooh. Ooh.
- 15:00Speaker 2: It's coming in. It's right there. And it's coming into LAX.
- 15:20Speaker 1: And that's the direction I'm going next. So I've run
- 15:34Speaker 1: my errands. I've conducted some business. I love when I
- 15:38Speaker 1: can do things remotely. I'm now at Starbucks having a
- 15:44Speaker 1: banana bread latte. This is by the airport. LAX airport's
- 15:48Speaker 1: right over there. I'm watching the planes come in. Taking
- 15:53Speaker 1: a breather in the shade. It's really warm right here.
- 15:56Speaker 1: But yeah, that's all for today. Fun to share with
- 16:00Speaker 1: you guys. I'm going to do some more of these.
- 16:03Speaker 1: I forgot how much I like doing these. I haven't
- 16:06Speaker 1: done them in a while. Take you guys with me
- 16:09Speaker 1: on my adventures. They will tell you what's going on.
- 16:12Speaker 1: So I will do that again soon.
- 16:15Speaker 2: Bye.
