  Speaker 6: like you don't get to try it. This app twofold
• 1:01
  Speaker 6: gives us the consumers the benefit, but then it also

• 4:00
  Speaker 6: so delicious, so fresh, and I like the density of it.

  Speaker 6: I'm a density role kind of guy, and so these
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: really appeal to me.

• 4:21
  Speaker 5: Now if somebody's listening, that's like, Hey, I'm a good
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: baker and I want to get my Do you know
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: how that they are able to be part of the app?
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: How does that work?
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So there is a process.
• 4:33
  Speaker 6: They are always looking for home bakers, and so you
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: go to their Instagram, you cook on that link and
• 4:39
  Speaker 6: then it asks if you're a home baker. Basically, if
• 4:41
  Speaker 6: you're a consumer, you can go on fill out a
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: form and then they can consider you for the app.
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 4:46
  Speaker 6: Like I said, it's twofold, so us as consumers can
• 4:49
  Speaker 6: enjoy all these streets and then as a homebaker, like
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: go out and.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: You weren't kidding about that Raspberry roll? Yeah, I mean
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: it doesn't you know. When you first look at it, you.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: Go, maybe that's good.
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, wow, No, the flavors are amazing, you're right.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: The density, yes, that is incredible.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: So you get the best thing to do is download
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: the app, right, yep, So.
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: Go to a dozen dot app and then there'll be
• 5:14
  Speaker 6: a link in their profile for you to go ahead
• 5:16
  Speaker 6: and download that and then it really is just like
• 5:19
  Speaker 6: searching through and it's amazing, And that's basically why they started.
• 5:22
  Speaker 6: So this actually comes from the previous owners of Crust Club.
• 5:26
  Speaker 6: I brought in Crust Club before those pies so they
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: partnered with one of their previous employees to bring this
• 5:33
  Speaker 6: app together because their thought was, there's so many things
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: that I want to share and put out there, and
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: people you know have reacted to it and think it's delicious,
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: So why not give them a way to do it,
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: put at all.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: One place, make it easy to find.
• 5:46
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, it's basically like a farmer's market every day.
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: Instead of going to a farmer's market just on Saturday
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: morning and trying to figure out who's local and who's
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: doing something, it really is something you can open your
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: phone right now and be able to search through order,
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: get it delivered one and it's just dozen dot app
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: or doesn't dot app yep and wow and they'll deliver
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: or you can pick up.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: That's great now, a great idea.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: This is just to pivot to another place that we've
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: talked about before. My wife went to Fillings and Emotions
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: in their new location they move. They're in the old
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Granados building on Third West there and I'm now called
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: and she brought back all of this stuff and she
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: said it's not very expensive either, and it's great variety,
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: and all of it was good and I've touched sight it.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: I'm not calling it fillings and emotions emoltions. It's feelings
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: and emotions.
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: It truly is. No, it truly is. And that's one
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: of my favorites.
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: I had a Hilipino cheese croissant from Fillings and Emotions
• 6:47
  Speaker 6: or feelings and Emotions, and it was amazing. I'm actually
• 6:51
  Speaker 6: really excited for their their new location because it's a
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: little bit better. It's not tucked as much out on
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: Main Street, so we'll see how they do in that
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: space there.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: But yeah, that.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Raspberry roll is, isn't it though.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: It's surprising, But.
• 7:04
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I challenge everybody to just go on there and
• 7:07
  Speaker 6: to look. And I challenge you, if you're a home baker,
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: to go on and apply for that, because truly, I
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: want to taste what you have.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: To after you're always looking for.
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm a baker myself, and so there was that
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: inkling in my in the back of my head that
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: I was like, should I try it? I mean, I'm
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: not going to tell you what I think would work
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: with in the market, because then I just let my
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: secrets out.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: But if you do think.
• 7:29
  Speaker 6: You have an idea or you want to run that
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: idea past me, go to my Instagram Donut Critic and

• 8:30
  Speaker 2: that's yeah, in a way, like.
• 8:31
  Speaker 6: I said, I'm teaching you how to fish because like
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: you wouldn't know. You have friends, you have family, and
• 8:37
  Speaker 6: then you have maybe some neighbors that have given you

  Speaker 6: these things. But some of those old recipes from Grandma's
• 8:42
  Speaker 6: or people that have worked in you know places back
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: east or you know out west, in these restaurants and
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: they've developed these recipes and now they're bringing them to us.
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: Like that's how you discover it. It's through an app
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: or through a way like this.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to find it on Apple and I'm not.
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: I will help you after that, but like the best
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: way to.
• 9:02
  Speaker 6: Do it is to go to their Instagram, click on
• 9:04
  Speaker 6: the link and then it will forward you out Their

  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's not.
• 9:14
  Speaker 6: It's not on on the the internet. Doesn't dot app
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: because you're right. But if you go to the Okay
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: Instagram click from the link, then it'll get you to those.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: So you got to go to Instagram, which is a
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: great place to go anyway because there's lots of good pictures.
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: And they've highlighted some of the bakers too. It's really
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: a fun way to go and see their stories. I
• 9:37
  Speaker 6: was reading them just the other day and it again,
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: it's just funny.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Meet the bakerfile o.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Nice.
• 9:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah, And some of them that you're trying to they
• 9:46
  Speaker 6: have small profiles. They're all, you know, people that want
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: to start or earn that extra money. They have a
• 9:52
  Speaker 6: really good recipe and then they know if they can
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: do it, you know, depending on what that life circumstance was.
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: And and that's what I think this has all been
• 9:59
  Speaker 6: a about for us, is me bringing in these small businesses,
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: being able to highlight the things that are awesome and
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: delicious that a lot of people aren't seeing. And so
