- 1:46Speaker 1: Tonight all right, well you know what, We're gonna talk
- 1:49Speaker 1: a little NBA. We're gonna talk money, and we're gonna
- 1:51Speaker 1: talk Mark Cuban. Everybody, We're gonna talk about the Mark
- 1:55Speaker 1: Cuban story. Get ready. Mark Cuban once had sixty dollars
- 1:59Speaker 1: to his name. He lived in a tiny apartment, slept
- 2:02Speaker 1: on the floor, can imagine that, and worked random jobs
- 2:05Speaker 1: to survive. Years later, he became eight millionaire. Why he
- 2:09Speaker 1: goes before the billions. Cuban was upset with business from childhood.
- 2:14Speaker 1: At age twelve, get this, he sold garbage bags door
- 2:18Speaker 1: to door, garbage bag, door to dark people. Later he
- 2:22Speaker 1: sold stamps, coins and even started a small newspaper business
- 2:26Speaker 1: during a local strike. Oh it only gets better because
- 2:29Speaker 1: after graduating from Indiana University. He worked briefly at Mellon Banks.
- 2:34Speaker 1: Then we got don't have a bank. Got a banker
- 2:36Speaker 1: with this guy, but he hated being controlled. I breathe
- 2:39Speaker 1: the mark. We got to talk about being controlled. So
- 2:42Speaker 1: he moved to Dallas looking for better opportunity days. What
- 2:45Speaker 1: did he find out? In his early twenties, Cuban moved
- 2:49Speaker 1: to Downas with just sixty dollars then a pocket. He
- 2:53Speaker 1: shared a small bedroom apartment with five roommates. The rent
- 2:57Speaker 1: was only six hundred dollars foot between all of them.
- 2:59Speaker 1: He didn't even had his own room. Most nice, he
- 3:01Speaker 1: slept on the couch or back on the floor. His
- 3:05Speaker 1: towels were so old and damaged that he later joked
- 3:08Speaker 1: that they could stand on their stone. So here we go,
- 3:12Speaker 1: we're talking about towels people. That's how little money he had. Eventually,
- 3:18Speaker 1: Qban got a Johnstone software the company called Your Business Software.
- 3:22Speaker 1: For the first time, he started making decent money just
- 3:25Speaker 1: through commissions. Then came the moment that changed his life.
- 3:30Speaker 1: Cuban left worked to close a fifteen thousand dollars sale.
- 3:35Speaker 1: Instead of rewarding him, his bot fired him for disobeying orders. Well,
- 3:39Speaker 1: I appreciate that I'm fire for those day. Man, Never know,
- 3:42Speaker 1: I won't go that far. All keep it about Marco.
- 3:44Speaker 1: Years later, QB called it the determining factor in his
- 3:47Speaker 1: business life. After getting fired, he throwed the road company.
- 3:52Speaker 1: His computer consulting company was called micro Solutions. The business
- 3:57Speaker 1: grew fast. In nineteen sold company served for around six
- 4:02Speaker 1: million bucks. But his biggest move came in nineteen ninety five.
- 4:07Speaker 1: Cuban and Todd Wagner launched Broadcast dot Com and internet
- 4:10Speaker 1: streaming company that the time, streaming online content was still
- 4:14Speaker 1: a new idea. The time, he was perfect. During the
- 4:18Speaker 1: dot com boom, Broadcast dot Com exploded, and nineteen ninety nine,
- 4:23Speaker 1: Yaho bought the company for five point seven billion and
- 4:26Speaker 1: stopped mark. Cuban officially became a billionaire. What made the
- 4:32Speaker 1: story even more impressive was what happened next. Instead of
- 4:37Speaker 1: holding Yahoo stock and hoping it would rise further, Cuban
- 4:41Speaker 1: sold his shares quickly, shortly after the dot com bubble
- 4:44Speaker 1: crashed and Yaho's value collapse, the decision protecting most of
- 4:48Speaker 1: his fortune. In two thousand, Cuban bought the Dallas Mavericks
- 4:54Speaker 1: for two hundred and eighty five million bucks at the time,
- 4:57Speaker 1: the franchise was struggling. Over the next decade, he transformed
- 5:01Speaker 1: the team into an NBA powerhouse. He eventually went in
- 5:04Speaker 1: the championship in twenty eleven. One of the most surprising
- 5:07Speaker 1: parts about the story happened before all the billions, when
- 5:12Speaker 1: Cuban finally had over one thousand and his bank account
- 5:15Speaker 1: for that first time, and he didn't buy watches or
- 5:19Speaker 1: sports cards and said, Cuban bought the fluffiest cause the
- 5:24Speaker 1: fluffiest plushes towels. Wonder why because the of the ones
- 5:28Speaker 1: he talked about he could find because he had spent
- 5:32Speaker 1: years of using old damn sALS, great mind, thinking like okay.
- 5:35Speaker 1: For him, using tows represented success. Cuban later shared one
- 5:39Speaker 1: lesson that to find his career and business, you only
- 5:43Speaker 1: have to be right once, one single time, and you
- 5:46Speaker 1: were the set for life sometimes when decision changes everything.
- 5:52Speaker 1: And I said, we share, all right, So there we go,
- 5:56Speaker 1: Steve Mark Cuban, I'll tell you, what what do you
- 5:58Speaker 1: think of this story, mister Valatari?
- 6:01Speaker 2: Well, and again what was he selling? He was selling
- 6:04Speaker 2: himself right everywhere he goes, I mean selling trash bag.
- 6:09Speaker 2: He was selling himself. So you know, that's how you
- 6:14Speaker 2: have to have that gift. But I will, I mean,
- 6:17Speaker 2: and hats off to him. I didn't realize he struggled
- 6:20Speaker 2: that badly when he was young.
- 6:22Speaker 1: But that's that's awesome.
- 6:24Speaker 2: I love hearing stories like that, and now we know that,
- 6:27Speaker 2: as Paul Harvey said, the rest of the story when
- 6:30Speaker 2: it comes to Mark Cuban, But I do share his
- 6:34Speaker 2: love of really good tolls. And I'll tell you, you know,
- 6:38Speaker 2: when I used to travel all the time, of course
- 6:42Speaker 2: my job, they put me up in really five star hotels,
- 6:47Speaker 2: and I made it a point and I'll agree to
- 6:51Speaker 2: this and admit it right on the air. And I
- 6:54Speaker 2: used to go in the hallway, you know, when the
- 6:57Speaker 2: laundry cart was coming through, and I would swipe all
- 7:00Speaker 2: the toils I could get and bring them home because
- 7:03Speaker 2: we always had those really you know, five star hotel,
- 7:07Speaker 2: really good after I came home from a trip. So
- 7:12Speaker 2: and so I I'm firmly on that boat with Mark Cuban.
- 7:18Speaker 1: Hey, Trent is the first top of your seen and
- 7:21Speaker 1: only able to get better.
- 7:22Speaker 4: Trent, go ahead, Yeah, I'm with Steve.
- 7:25Speaker 5: I mean, I think everything is relationship selling, right, Like
- 7:27Speaker 5: almost everything you're rarely selling a product, I mean garbage bags,
- 7:32Speaker 5: like you can get that anywhere, right, and you're gonna
- 7:34Speaker 5: compete with what, like all the big brands, I mean,
- 7:37Speaker 5: come on, like so but service at home obviously Cuban
- 7:41Speaker 5: is selling himself.
- 7:41Speaker 4: I am a huge Cuban business fan.
- 7:45Speaker 5: Obviously, big year for him, being an Indiana grad and
- 7:49Speaker 5: I think that's the Kelly School of Business there and.
- 7:54Speaker 4: Big program. Very good.
- 7:56Speaker 5: Uh, Cuban is pretty impressive. I'm gonna see him actually
- 7:59Speaker 5: next month he speaks in LA. He's a former eoer.
- 8:03Speaker 5: And here here's another one on the mask two hundred
- 8:06Speaker 5: and eighty five million, of which he sold about seventy
- 8:10Speaker 5: seventy two percent valued at three point.
- 8:13Speaker 4: Five billion in twenty twenty three.
- 8:17Speaker 5: So that two hundred and eighty five million into three
- 8:19Speaker 5: point five billion not a bad upside on that little
- 8:23Speaker 5: investment either. So he did okay a twelve x over
- 8:28Speaker 5: his twenty three years of valuation. So you know, as
- 8:32Speaker 5: a growth guy, I really appreciate that about Cuban man.
- 8:35Speaker 5: I mean, I'd love to hear Mark Cuban talk about
- 8:39Speaker 5: business and stay in his lane on that because I
- 8:41Speaker 5: think he's really good there. Some of the other stuff
- 8:44Speaker 5: gets out of control. But like a lot to admire
- 8:47Speaker 5: about that guy. And and like you said, asd be
- 8:49Speaker 5: like man, I did not realize his means was that
- 8:53Speaker 5: dire as a young man?
- 8:58Speaker 1: Yeah, Bosman White, here's the think Trump. When you see
- 9:02Speaker 1: Mark Cuban, you tell them what you were on a
- 9:04Speaker 1: show that talked about his garbage bags, and you mentioned
- 9:08Speaker 1: you get this guy to be a part of our show.
- 9:10Speaker 1: You know, up happening, Trent u, SB, myself and Kady
- 9:15Speaker 1: are going to be living in We're going to be
- 9:17Speaker 1: doing a lot of traveling and retirement. It's going to
- 9:19Speaker 1: be a lot easier and whatever situations you're dealing with now,
- 9:23Speaker 1: we're going to get cleaned up pretty glass because of
- 9:25Speaker 1: the guy by the name of Mark Ewan.
- 9:27Speaker 5: Just remember that, Hey, maybe we should maybe we should
- 9:29Speaker 5: get some like you know, logoed MotorCity mad Mouth garbage
- 9:32Speaker 5: bags and I can take him.
- 9:33Speaker 1: To I'm all for that. Again't my business associated KNDy
- 9:41Speaker 1: like she handles all those requests, right, so har I mean,
- 9:48Speaker 1: this is clarky. This is what you get used to
- 9:50Speaker 1: when you come on Wednesday night. Man, Really think about it, man,
- 9:54Speaker 1: really seriously or really seriously, I don't care, but anyway,
- 9:58Speaker 1: that's what you're gonna get. I got only love it
- 10:00Speaker 1: more like that. Don't worry, Hi, Katy, go ahead.
- 10:04Speaker 3: So his father was an automobile upholster, and he describes
- 10:09Speaker 3: his mother, Shirley, as someone with a different job or
- 10:12Speaker 3: a different career goal every other week.
- 10:15Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 10:15Speaker 3: He ventured into business at age twelve, sold garbage banks
- 10:19Speaker 3: to pay for a pair of sneakers. A few years later,
- 10:21Speaker 3: he's earned money by selling stamps and coins. At age sixteen,
- 10:25Speaker 3: Cuban took advantage of a Pittsburgh Post Gazette strike by
- 10:30Speaker 3: running newspapers from Cleveland to Pittsburgh. Kind of interesting. The
- 10:35Speaker 3: other little interesting tidbit that I will add is, obviously
- 10:41Speaker 3: we all know that he has been a Shark Tank
- 10:44Speaker 3: investor on the ABC reality program The Season since season
- 10:50Speaker 3: two in twenty eleven. As of May twenty fifteen, he
- 10:55Speaker 3: had invested in eighty five deals across one hundred and
- 10:59Speaker 3: eleven Shark Tank episodes for a total of nineteen point
- 11:03Speaker 3: nine million. In twenty twenty two, Cuban stated that his
- 11:07Speaker 3: portfolio of Sharp Tank investments had made a net loss,
- 11:12Speaker 3: saying I've gotten beat. I was really surprised to hear that.
- 11:18Speaker 3: Like with as much as he's invested in a lot
- 11:20Speaker 3: of other things as a businessman, he he has been
- 11:26Speaker 3: very smart. The one part that I didn't particularly care
- 11:30Speaker 3: for is when he decided to stop playing the national
- 11:33Speaker 3: anthem at the basketball games, and then the NBA came
- 11:37Speaker 3: back and said, no, it's policy that you have to
- 11:40Speaker 3: so good thing for the NBA. But as far as
- 11:45Speaker 3: a businessman, I mean, he's worth six billion, how can
- 11:48Speaker 3: you argue with that?
- 11:50Speaker 1: Wow?
- 11:51Speaker 4: Mind, it's too more than Steve by the way, dang.
- 12:00Speaker 1: Hey, listen, he hired Rick Carlisle and he won a
- 12:02Speaker 1: championship with Rick, and I worked with so Candy. You know,
- 12:06Speaker 1: that's a great segue because you talk about start Tank.
- 12:09Speaker 1: Now we're going to continue on with the Shark Tank.
- 12:11Speaker 1: I think because Sark ABC Shart Tank is moving. They're
- 12:15Speaker 1: filming that Atlanta after seventeen years in California. The Soil
- 12:19Speaker 1: will film at Tyler Perry Studios for eighteenth season. National
- 12:22Speaker 1: Week we talked about Warner Brothers Studios, So there you go.
- 12:26Speaker 1: There's a Shark Tank reference. Steve, but here talking about
- 12:29Speaker 1: the fact that they're leaving California. For Atlanta.
- 12:31Speaker 2: I know it's cheaper under tax that's sure. Yeah, that's it.
- 12:34Speaker 2: I mean there's so many businesses and companies that are
- 12:39Speaker 2: bailing from California because of the taxes, right, the high
- 12:42Speaker 2: taxes there, and you know, there's the state is having
- 12:48Speaker 2: a lot of issues. So I'm not surprised at all.
- 12:51Speaker 2: Atlanta's becoming a huge hub for the entertainment business anyway.
- 12:57Speaker 2: I mean it's been growing and growing and growing, and
- 13:01Speaker 2: now I'm not surprised that more shows aren't going there.
- 13:06Speaker 1: We face a CNN and been there forever on TVs,
- 13:09Speaker 1: so this is just the latest thing that's going to go.
- 13:11Speaker 1: It's funny how Candy mentioned Shark take a Lease segue
- 13:14Speaker 1: to this segment because they're going to the big a Atlanta.
- 13:17Speaker 1: The fuck Trent.
- 13:19Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe Ted Turner knew something nobody else did at
- 13:22Speaker 5: the time, right, like that real broadcasting network. And yeah,
- 13:27Speaker 5: I've heard the movie industry just continues to pour into
- 13:30Speaker 5: to Georgia, and obviously Atlanta being the hub, and you
- 13:34Speaker 5: know it's the center of the country.
- 13:35Speaker 4: It's so easy to get to anywhere.
- 13:37Speaker 5: And by the way, now you got he's both goes
- 13:40Speaker 5: over to there in less than two and a half hours,
- 13:42Speaker 5: so it's an easy uh spin to bring people in.
- 13:45Speaker 5: Uh did not know that Tyler Perry had invested big there,
- 13:48Speaker 5: So that's kind of cool that he's done that.
- 13:50Speaker 4: And everyone says in the entertainment.
- 13:52Speaker 5: Business, it's only as good, like the state is only
- 13:55Speaker 5: as good as long as the taxes and the efficiency
- 13:58Speaker 5: and price point live. So, you know, George is a
- 14:02Speaker 5: little bit under pressure that you got to keep that
- 14:04Speaker 5: going because the moment somebody goes, hey, listen, we'll do
- 14:07Speaker 5: it for five percent less, guess what, they're all gone
- 14:10Speaker 5: and off they go to Montana or you know whoever.
- 14:13Speaker 2: Vancouver. Vancouver is a big hub too.
- 14:16Speaker 5: Yeah, big hub for a lot of years too. Vancouver
- 14:19Speaker 5: was hot man, you know, made Ryan Reynolds right, come on.
- 14:23Speaker 1: M h exactly. Yeah.
- 14:27Speaker 2: Plus, I mean you know Atlanta, I mean that's the
- 14:29Speaker 2: biggest or busiest airport in the world, so you know,
- 14:34Speaker 2: it's it's a great hub if you need to get
- 14:36Speaker 2: in and out of there quickly. It's it's a pain
- 14:41Speaker 2: flying in and out of there, though I've done it
- 14:43Speaker 2: many times.
- 14:45Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I've had a lot of adventures out of
- 14:50Speaker 1: Atlanta Airport. Every time I drive for IV five is
- 14:52Speaker 1: hitting this. That's why I usually drive in the middle
- 14:55Speaker 1: of nights. I get around at ice seventy five traffic
- 14:57Speaker 1: for sure. But hey, Atlanta, no, kid yourself, that's going
- 15:00Speaker 1: to be in a couple of years. So I have
- 15:02Speaker 1: a lot of people in the Atlanta area and actually
- 15:04Speaker 1: saw a game one time at the Georgiatome. So all right, Katy,
- 15:07Speaker 1: how you can research this one to death peol if
- 15:10Speaker 1: you want, But then again, I wouldn't chase it from
- 15:12Speaker 1: what you're already doing. Good stuff. Well, were your thought
- 15:14Speaker 1: about Shark Tak? Your latest Shark Tak?
- 15:17Speaker 3: Steve? Do you know where they're going to be located? No,
- 15:22Speaker 3: they are going to be located obviously Tyler Perry Studios
- 15:26Speaker 3: in Atlanta, Georgia's Georgia. But the show tapes at the
- 15:30Speaker 3: massive three hundred and thirty acres state of the art
- 15:33Speaker 3: facility located on the historic grounds of the decommissioned Fort
- 15:38Speaker 3: McPherson Army Base.
- 15:40Speaker 2: Oh wow, that's that was a really nice base. You know,
- 15:48Speaker 2: some army bases are like armpits of the world. Others
- 15:54Speaker 2: were really nice. Fort McPherson was a nice one. I
- 15:59Speaker 2: just passed through the one time and during my time,
- 16:03Speaker 2: and uh.
- 16:05Speaker 3: That it's one of the largest production compasses in the
- 16:10Speaker 3: entire country too.
- 16:13Speaker 1: And like, yes, some of them old military bases.
- 16:16Speaker 2: I mean it would lend itself to.
- 16:22Speaker 1: To the movie making business.
- 16:24Speaker 2: In fact, when I first retired from the military, I
- 16:27Speaker 2: worked for a good friend of mine. He was running
- 16:30Speaker 2: a a shipping company out of the old Charleston, South
- 16:35Speaker 2: Carolina Navy base and they made they tried to do
- 16:40Speaker 2: a movie studio there and that was right across from
- 16:43Speaker 2: where we worked, and they filmed that movie The Notebook.
- 16:49Speaker 4: I noticed they didn't pick a Columbus. You know that
- 16:54Speaker 4: base was a little bit shoddy, like yeah, and.
- 16:57Speaker 1: I don't know, yeah, it was run down bad.
- 17:01Speaker 4: What about?
- 17:02Speaker 1: What about?
- 17:03Speaker 5: Does every base have an airstrip? Is that pretty common?
- 17:06Speaker 5: Or something like connected?
- 17:12Speaker 1: What's that?
- 17:13Speaker 4: Oh? I'm sorry, did I cut?
- 17:16Speaker 1: Oh? You're fine.
- 17:16Speaker 4: Did every air base does?
- 17:19Speaker 5: Does most military bases have an airstrip or a connected airstrip?
- 17:23Speaker 4: Is that just pretty common?
- 17:26Speaker 2: A lot of them do, some like some if they're
- 17:30Speaker 2: located right next to a major hub, they'll just use
- 17:34Speaker 2: that hub. Yeah, Because for McPherson was a small base
- 17:41Speaker 2: that wasn't a very large one. And I don't believe
- 17:45Speaker 2: they had their own airstrip there.
- 17:46Speaker 1: If I could be wrong.
- 17:49Speaker 5: I know, Chick fil A Studios just invested big in Georgia, right,
- 17:52Speaker 5: They just built their own studios and everything else there, right.
- 17:59Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, I mean Chick fil A is huge in Atlanta.
- 18:01Speaker 1: They really really aren't. I mean, I mean, obviously they
- 18:04Speaker 1: have to Chick fil A Bowl, which is a bowl
- 18:06Speaker 1: game obviously for and they I'll tell you that's a
- 18:10Speaker 1: wail of the bowl game. It really really truly is, so,
- 18:13Speaker 1: you know, I mean, Atlanta is a big place. I mean,
- 18:16Speaker 1: I can tell you how many times. It's a lot
- 18:18Speaker 1: of the better cities in the country. And think about it.
- 18:20Speaker 1: I have a lot of good friends that are located there.
- 18:23Speaker 1: I'll give the Atlanta one credit about one thing though,
- 18:25Speaker 1: when they had Turner Field, instead of tear the thing down,
- 18:28Speaker 1: you know what they ended up doing. They decided to
- 18:30Speaker 1: renovate the state from Georgia State University most municipality. Is
- 18:34Speaker 1: what they would end up doing is tearing it down
- 18:36Speaker 1: after thirty years Georgia and I'll even take it a
- 18:39Speaker 1: step further. Georgia State's actually going to build a college
- 18:43Speaker 1: facility right on the old grounds of Fulton County Stadium,
- 18:47Speaker 1: and they still have the Atlanta They hank Aaron where
- 18:50Speaker 1: he hit that home run as well. So I can't
- 18:53Speaker 1: get Georgia a lot of credit. And the way they
- 18:55Speaker 1: go about their business they really do it is really really,
- 18:59Speaker 1: really really impressive.
- 19:01Speaker 4: So hot Land, nice, Yes.
- 19:06Speaker 1: Anything you want to add to this?
- 19:08Speaker 3: No, I I added enough already. I you know, it's
- 19:13Speaker 3: it's not a show that I've watched a ton of,
- 19:16Speaker 3: but it's one of those that you can just pick
- 19:18Speaker 3: up and watch whenever you want to. So I think
- 19:22Speaker 3: it's a cool concept though.
- 19:24Speaker 4: Mm And I've had a number of friends on the show.
- 19:29Speaker 1: Nice. Oh really, Yeah, that's cool.
- 19:32Speaker 4: That's very cool. Mm hm.
- 19:34Speaker 1: And now you know, Cuban's really cool. You realized that
- 19:38Speaker 1: when you're talking Cuban, you're gonna.
- 19:40Speaker 3: Have Well, Cuban is no longer associated with Shark Tank
- 19:45Speaker 3: because he wanted to spend more time with his family
- 19:49Speaker 3: because it's normally filmed in June and September and those
- 19:53Speaker 3: are months that he wanted to spend with his kids.
- 19:56Speaker 3: Obviously they're not basketball, you know, time months and stuff
- 19:59Speaker 3: like that.
- 19:59Speaker 1: But yeah, all right, let's move on. Have some more
- 20:03Speaker 1: stuff here lined up here before we get to snow White.
- 20:06Speaker 1: Everybody wondered with a million dollar questions snow White. But
- 20:08Speaker 1: I have a few things I want to get to you. First,
- 20:11Speaker 1: A one hundred three year old woman who served in
- 20:13Speaker 1: World War Two receies a high school diploma. One hundred
- 20:17Speaker 1: three years old woman receives a diploma. Oh my goodness.
- 20:22Speaker 1: And she left high school to build plenty of eighty
- 20:24Speaker 1: years ago and she got that diploma. Her name is
- 20:26Speaker 1: Joe Ed the Black Steve. I mean she thinks that
- 20:33Speaker 1: thing because God delayed does not mean that God denied
- 20:37Speaker 1: when they come to the diploma. I love that. I
- 20:43Speaker 1: love that.
- 20:44Speaker 2: In fact, you know, I didn't see a blurb of
- 20:48Speaker 2: that on the news, and it struck a chord because
- 20:53Speaker 2: when I was still living up north in Massachusetts, one
- 20:58Speaker 2: of the members of our VFW, he was a World
- 21:05Speaker 2: War two veteran, and he lied about his age too,
- 21:08Speaker 2: you know, joined I think he joined the Marines or
- 21:12Speaker 2: the Army. It was either the Marines or the Army. Anyway,
- 21:15Speaker 2: he went and fought World War Two, and his biggest
- 21:18Speaker 2: regret was he never finished high school. And he went
- 21:21Speaker 2: back and he did classes and they had a special
- 21:25Speaker 2: ceremony for him. He was about at that time, about
- 21:29Speaker 2: ninety three or ninety four years old, and because that
- 21:33Speaker 2: was a few years ago, and you know, he went
- 21:36Speaker 2: and graduated at high school. And I love stories like that.
- 21:40Speaker 2: You know, it just shows that you're never too old
- 21:43Speaker 2: to learn.
- 21:44Speaker 1: Yeah, she took it to a who wells three? Good
- 21:48Speaker 1: for her. Yeah, you like these stories. I like drumming
- 21:53Speaker 1: them up, Clarky.
- 21:55Speaker 5: Yeah, I love this story too. I got, you know,
- 21:58Speaker 5: two things come to mind. I got a eight friend
- 22:00Speaker 5: who very similar to SB story there. He's a recon marine.
- 22:05Speaker 4: You know, he.
- 22:06Speaker 5: Couldn't read, dyslexic terribly and signed off to go to
- 22:10Speaker 5: military when he was seventeen years old. His parents signed
- 22:13Speaker 5: the deal, you can go be a marine. And he
- 22:16Speaker 5: was like writing home, like, oh my gosh, I got
- 22:18Speaker 5: a bed and three meals a day and all I
- 22:20Speaker 5: gotta do is not die Like this.
- 22:21Speaker 4: Is like, so.
- 22:25Speaker 5: You talk about growing up like without right and this
- 22:29Speaker 5: is all a sudden a better life, and you're thinking,
- 22:31Speaker 5: like a lot of people like, hey, marines are not
- 22:33Speaker 5: easy life.
- 22:34Speaker 4: Green berets are not an easy life, right, You're going
- 22:36Speaker 4: to go to discomfort.
- 22:38Speaker 5: And yet now this guy's you know, MBA from TCU
- 22:43Speaker 5: owns multiple companies, client of ours at Bloom and I
- 22:48Speaker 5: mean amazing, right, And so you know, I love these
- 22:51Speaker 5: stories and I think what I love about mostly you know,
- 22:53Speaker 5: because Rosie the Riveter, right like this, this is the
- 22:56Speaker 5: World War two. These women went to work. And I
- 23:00Speaker 5: think as much as I value and honor Steve service
- 23:04Speaker 5: and everybody else that gives the families are involved in
- 23:07Speaker 5: this military movement, the wives, the people. When we are
- 23:10Speaker 5: a country, we are all involved in a military movement.
- 23:13Speaker 5: And they think, oh, this is for soldiers. You know,
- 23:15Speaker 5: our military is like what is it like two point
- 23:18Speaker 5: two percent of all Americans have actually served. But you
- 23:21Speaker 5: have significant others, you have parents, you have all these
- 23:24Speaker 5: people that are attached to military personnel that are going
- 23:28Speaker 5: out there and serving, and they're serving something too. They're
- 23:30Speaker 5: serving a sacrifice as well worried about their children, and.
- 23:35Speaker 4: I think that gets lost in a lot of things.
- 23:37Speaker 5: So God bless this woman who's like still going out
- 23:39Speaker 5: there's no price on education, and I love it that
- 23:43Speaker 5: she's still working at at one O three.
- 23:47Speaker 2: That's a great point, by the way, Trent. You know,
- 23:51Speaker 2: like one of the things that used to get lost
- 23:53Speaker 2: on us, like, you know, we would be deployed in
- 23:56Speaker 2: another country, somewhere far away. And back then, you know,
- 24:01Speaker 2: when you were deployed, I mean there wasn't the Internet
- 24:04Speaker 2: and Skype and you know the internet, phone calls back
- 24:08Speaker 2: home every night. I mean, you were you were out
- 24:11Speaker 2: of the loop, and you know, we were with each other,
- 24:14Speaker 2: so we knew when we were safe and when we weren't.
- 24:18Speaker 2: But our families back home they were worried about us
- 24:21Speaker 2: twenty four to seven because they didn't know what was
- 24:24Speaker 2: going on. And it's actually in some aspects, you know,
- 24:29Speaker 2: the families actually have a tougher you know, some aspects.
- 24:34Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, I I'm trying to pull something up here.
- 24:43Speaker 4: I would love to.
- 24:47Speaker 3: I was trying to get that, but I didn't get
- 24:49Speaker 3: it at the time.
- 24:50Speaker 1: Here, but the pig I hit ballist last week.
- 24:54Speaker 4: All right, there's Rosie the River. We could do.
- 24:56Speaker 1: It, that's right. Yeah, I love that. I love that.
- 25:01Speaker 3: As a young woman during World War Two, she went
- 25:04Speaker 3: to work at Bell Aircraft in Marietta, Georgia, and she
- 25:08Speaker 3: became one of the nation's Rosie the riveters, welding B
- 25:12Speaker 3: twenty nine bombers and contributing to the war effort. Her work,
- 25:16Speaker 3: like that of so many women of her generation, helped
- 25:19Speaker 3: shape the outcome of the war and redefined the role
- 25:22Speaker 3: of women in the workforce. So more than eighty years later,
- 25:28Speaker 3: we get to this point where she, you know, was
- 25:33Speaker 3: granted trying to.
- 25:36Speaker 4: Get her picture. Where is it?
- 25:39Speaker 3: It's funny. I have it on my phone, but I
- 25:40Speaker 3: can't get it on the computer. Yeah, of course, but no,
- 25:45Speaker 3: it's an awesome story. You always love to hear, you know,
- 25:49Speaker 3: you hear about the men that went and served and
- 25:52Speaker 3: were in the war, but a lot was happening back
- 25:55Speaker 3: home here. The women had to keep you know, they
- 25:58Speaker 3: went to work in the factories, they kept everything else going.
- 26:03Speaker 3: And you just love to hear those kind of stories.
- 26:04Speaker 3: And to think that she had to leave high school
- 26:07Speaker 3: just to do that, and that she, how many years
- 26:11Speaker 3: eighty years later, eighty decades later, you know, gets her degree,
- 26:16Speaker 3: which I think is awesome. You're never too old to
- 26:21Speaker 3: keep learning.
- 26:23Speaker 5: I like the wisdom by the way that, like I
- 26:25Speaker 5: could imagine this woman's stories of what she's seen. And
- 26:28Speaker 5: here's a big issue that I love about our country.
- 26:30Speaker 5: How much have we advanced from a civil rights standpoint,
- 26:33Speaker 5: this woman's building bombers for us, making a huge effort
- 26:36Speaker 5: in our war.
- 26:37Speaker 4: And can't vote at that time, right, And so.
- 26:39Speaker 5: Now all of a sudden she looks back at this
- 26:41Speaker 5: lifetime of what's changed for women, and she was on
- 26:44Speaker 5: the forefront of that. Like, she's got to just have
- 26:47Speaker 5: amazing story. Someone's got to get a mic on this woman.
- 26:50Speaker 4: She's just record like.
- 26:52Speaker 5: How things have changed and listen, is it perfect? No,
- 26:55Speaker 5: it's not perfect. We got a ways to go and
- 26:57Speaker 5: we're working at it, but like it has come along
- 27:00Speaker 5: long way. And I think she's a she's a woman
- 27:02Speaker 5: who's been like a like a trend center.
- 27:04Speaker 4: So I love that.
- 27:06Speaker 1: It's pretty impressive. Okay, well, I'll tell you one thing.
- 27:10Speaker 1: Who's going to be a partner of the Olympic Games,
- 27:13Speaker 1: JP Morgan Chase. Because JP Morgan Chase becomes the first
- 27:17Speaker 1: global banking partner of the Olympic Games, includes the LA
- 27:19Speaker 1: Olympic and a Paralympic Games. We'll turn over to Steve.
- 27:23Speaker 1: What are your thoughts about JP Morgan Chase getting involved
- 27:26Speaker 1: with the Olympics. See Steve, I think he froze. Yeah, Okay,
- 27:39Speaker 1: we'll let you lean it off. Go ahead.
- 27:42Speaker 5: Yeah, like not surprising. Jamie Diamond stepped up on that.
- 27:46Speaker 5: You know, JP Morgan Chase continues to be a front runner,
- 27:50Speaker 5: you know, a huge brand. I'm a client, by the way,
- 27:53Speaker 5: and uh so I love the fact that, you know,
- 27:57Speaker 5: they're probably one of our biggest banks in America, So
- 27:59Speaker 5: it makes sense that as an Olympic effort, and I'm
- 28:02Speaker 5: sure they're testing this from a standpoint of let's see
- 28:06Speaker 5: LA and then you've got two years after that the
- 28:08Speaker 5: Winter Olympics in Salt Lake again. So you know, this
- 28:12Speaker 5: thing's hitting ahead here pretty quick. Maybe maybe it's a
- 28:15Speaker 5: little longer than that between, but.
- 28:18Speaker 4: It's gonna be uh probably.
- 28:21Speaker 5: The right bank I think, probably out of New York
- 28:24Speaker 5: right now. They're probably considered the biggest in America at
- 28:29Speaker 5: least probably most well known. Got history with some bigger
- 28:32Speaker 5: banks with Wells Fargo and things there. But it doesn't
- 28:36Speaker 5: surprise you.
- 28:37Speaker 4: The Jamie Diners.
- 28:39Speaker 1: Thanks, Steve, I missed it. I lost, not a big deal,
- 28:46Speaker 1: So we're gonna Jamie Morgan Chase becomes the first global
- 28:49Speaker 1: banking partner of the Olympic Games, includes LA Olympic and
- 28:54Speaker 1: Parallel Olympic Games. Last Steve, Yeah, I think that's a
- 29:01Speaker 1: good investment for them.
- 29:02Speaker 2: I think to get involved with that, I mean it's
- 29:05Speaker 2: going to bring them probably a ton of business in return.
- 29:10Speaker 1: Yeah, always a good one. All right, Well, go ahead
- 29:14Speaker 1: and Candy re sir.
- 29:15Speaker 3: It Yeah, I will. Let's put it that way. So,
- 29:21Speaker 3: JP Morgan Chase join the IOC's Worldwide Olympic Partner Program
- 29:26Speaker 3: as the first global banking partner in Olympic history. A
- 29:30Speaker 3: partnership that includes becoming the official bank of Team USA
- 29:34Speaker 3: and the LA twenty eight Olympics and Paralympics, and a
- 29:38Speaker 3: founding partner of LA twenty eight. JP Morgan Chase will
- 29:43Speaker 3: strengthen the Olympic and Paralympic movements long term financial health
- 29:47Speaker 3: and create new opportunities for athletes, businesses, and communities to thrive.
- 29:54Speaker 3: JP Morgan Chase and the IOC will holistically support athletes,
- 29:59Speaker 3: including plans to host financial health workshops for them through
- 30:04Speaker 3: the IOC's Athlete three sixty five platform. These initiatives and
- 30:08Speaker 3: other local investments and host cities will help ensure the
- 30:12Speaker 3: Olympic movement movement leaves a lasting legacy beyond the Games.
- 30:17Speaker 3: The partnership will also include the next Winter Olympics and
- 30:20Speaker 3: Paralympics in twenty thirty in the French Alps thirty four. Yeah, yeah,
- 30:32Speaker 3: it does not surprise me. Chase has pledged a lot
- 30:36Speaker 3: of money back into the community, a lot of They
- 30:40Speaker 3: have a lot of grants, a lot of programs for
- 30:42Speaker 3: like small businesses. They help build downtown Detroit. They put
- 30:47Speaker 3: in a lot of money into Detroit to help them
- 30:52Speaker 3: rebrand and rebuild. Yeah, it's it's a very good bank.
- 30:58Speaker 3: And I'm gonna leave it at that.
- 31:00Speaker 1: No, you know, I have to hey, listen, I'm thankful
- 31:02Speaker 1: for them. They handle my medical insurance, and my medical
- 31:05Speaker 1: insurances is like the Burger King, it's a whopper, no
- 31:08Speaker 1: fun intended. Maybe there is maybe a little go ahead.
- 31:14Speaker 4: You know. One of the things that's pretty awesome.
- 31:15Speaker 5: And I didn't know about the financial education, but one
- 31:19Speaker 5: of the things also, you know, to to Sb's point
- 31:21Speaker 5: of the military background, you know a lot of these
- 31:23Speaker 5: athletes go in and join into the military where they
- 31:26Speaker 5: do have a place where they can have a job,
- 31:28Speaker 5: work and still work on their athletic prowess and do
- 31:32Speaker 5: their training even though they're serving our military.
- 31:35Speaker 4: So that's a huge deal.
- 31:37Speaker 5: They have to almost do that because financially a lot
- 31:40Speaker 5: of the sports are not funded. This isn't like where
- 31:43Speaker 5: we see the NBA players come over and everyone's made
- 31:46Speaker 5: a bunch of money. I was in Italy with a
- 31:48Speaker 5: lot of the uh the skeleton crew, and you know
- 31:54Speaker 5: these guys are first of all, you only got two
- 31:56Speaker 5: on the team. There's eight to ten competing for bots.
- 32:00Speaker 5: They're they're they're nationally ranked. These ten athletes and more
- 32:05Speaker 5: coming and all of them are out of their pocket
- 32:08Speaker 5: a lot every year. So this this culmination of Chase
- 32:12Speaker 5: our military utilizing. I don't think these athletes who are
- 32:16Speaker 5: training the represent its should be paying out of pocket
- 32:19Speaker 5: to be an.
- 32:19Speaker 4: Olympian in any way.
- 32:20Speaker 5: And so it'll be a great change if Chase fixes that.
- 32:26Speaker 1: Agree with that alight, So we talked about this.
- 32:31Speaker 3: I just want to add one more thing when you're
- 32:33Speaker 3: talking about Chase. Chase is hired over a million veterans
- 32:43Speaker 3: over the course of time, and they are a big
- 32:45Speaker 3: proponent of hiring veterans. And I will say that they
- 32:52Speaker 3: they give a lot of free things for a veteran.
- 32:55Speaker 3: If they come into the bank and want to open accounts,
- 32:58Speaker 3: they give them one of the best accounts that they
- 33:00Speaker 3: have for free as long as they prove that they
- 33:02Speaker 3: were in the military, so they support the military as well.
- 33:08Speaker 1: I did not know that that's good. Okay, Well let's say, well,
- 33:12Speaker 1: we talked about a woman at one hundred and three. Unfortunately,
- 33:17Speaker 1: when I talk about this player is Dwayne Haskins. It's
- 33:20Speaker 1: a tragedy because he actually passed away when he was
- 33:23Speaker 1: struck by a tump truck when he crossed five ninety
- 33:26Speaker 1: five on foot. Let me go over the details about
- 33:28Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskins. This guy I thought was getting it figured out.
- 33:33Speaker 1: It points what could have been stories is really what
- 33:36Speaker 1: it is. So here's what you have in Ohio State,
- 33:39Speaker 1: Haskins looked like the future. In twenty eighteen, he became
- 33:42Speaker 1: a Heisman finalist and set major school and single season
- 33:46Speaker 1: passing records, helping some me in himself with one of
- 33:48Speaker 1: the best quarterbacks in Bunckhey's history. Was then selected fifteenth
- 33:51Speaker 1: overall twenty nineteen by Washington went many believing he had
- 33:56Speaker 1: the talent to be a franchise quarterback. His NFL for
- 33:59Speaker 1: never or fully came together, he said flashes, but inconsistently
- 34:03Speaker 1: inconsistently instability around him and off field issues didn't helpless
- 34:08Speaker 1: case any He was then selected fifteenth overall the twenty
- 34:12Speaker 1: nineteen draft. Oh all right, I mentioned that. Okay, So
- 34:16Speaker 1: Washington release him in the twenty twenty season. He later
- 34:19Speaker 1: got a fresh start with the Steelers, where he was
- 34:21Speaker 1: trying to rebuild his career and compete for a bigger opportunity. Tragically,
- 34:27Speaker 1: though unfortunately, Hackens died on April nine, twenty twenty two,
- 34:32Speaker 1: at just twenty four years old, after being struck by
- 34:36Speaker 1: a dump truck on South for A Highway. The medical
- 34:39Speaker 1: examiner ruled his death on accident calls a multiple blunt
- 34:44Speaker 1: fource injuries and Dwayne Hatfons was still young, trying to grow,
- 34:48Speaker 1: but still kind of had to rewrite a story. So
- 34:51Speaker 1: a set of football. A talented player was got lost
- 34:54Speaker 1: son hudgreand and went to way too soon. Rest in peace,
- 34:58Speaker 1: Dwayne Hackets.
- 34:59Speaker 5: All right, Yeah, I remember when the story broke. I
- 35:04Speaker 5: mean a tragic story of you know, a young football
- 35:07Speaker 5: player who seem to have a lot of things going
- 35:10Speaker 5: for him, in a lot of right direction and challenges
- 35:13Speaker 5: like everyone else in his career. You know, I think
- 35:15Speaker 5: the average career, there's like one point eight years in
- 35:17Speaker 5: the NFL. It's not long and even the best college
- 35:21Speaker 5: players still struggle. You know.
- 35:22Speaker 4: Archie Griffin went two heismans out of Wilow State.
- 35:25Speaker 5: His NFL career wasn't a long one, So you know,
- 35:29Speaker 5: I think that, you know, it is a tragic story.
- 35:34Speaker 5: I never heard the end of that, you know, how
- 35:36Speaker 5: that was ruled an accident or I know there was
- 35:39Speaker 5: rumor that this was you know, self inflicted, and I
- 35:44Speaker 5: don't know the story, but it's a life lost way
- 35:47Speaker 5: too early and a super talented athlete, right.
- 35:54Speaker 2: Yeah, I remember this well also. I mean, if I
- 36:01Speaker 2: remember right, he was at a place where he was
- 36:04Speaker 2: working out with some other players and there was I
- 36:12Speaker 2: think the story at the time was his car either
- 36:14Speaker 2: broke down or he ran out of gas and he
- 36:18Speaker 2: was trying to cross and it's just absolutely tragic. And yeah,
- 36:25Speaker 2: it's just you know, when you lose your life that young,
- 36:29Speaker 2: and you know, with so much promise, it's just it's horrible.
- 36:35Speaker 1: It was I remember that.
- 36:37Speaker 2: It was a horrible story, and you just feel for
- 36:40Speaker 2: his family, and you know, it's like you wonder what.
- 36:44Speaker 1: Could have been? Yeah.
- 36:46Speaker 3: Sure, So he was in Florida to the train with
- 36:50Speaker 3: several of his Steeler teammates. His wife, who had was
- 36:54Speaker 3: not traveling with him, received a call from him after
- 36:58Speaker 3: he ran out of gasoline from his rented vehicle, letting
- 37:01Speaker 3: her know of his attempt to get more get more
- 37:04Speaker 3: gas at a station prior before he was struck. I'm
- 37:09Speaker 3: not going to go over some of the details of
- 37:11Speaker 3: him being struck, but there was a toxicology report that
- 37:15Speaker 3: revealed he had a blood alcohol level of point two
- 37:19Speaker 3: four and he also tested positive for ketamine, oxamiforne, metaphetamine,
- 37:27Speaker 3: and no quorantine. There has been a lawsuit filed about
- 37:32Speaker 3: the incident, claims that Haskins was drugged and robbed by
- 37:35Speaker 3: a group that contained one man and three women prior
- 37:38Speaker 3: to his death. It accuses the dump truck of speeding,
- 37:43Speaker 3: operating carelessly, and violating weight limit regulations, and also claims
- 37:48Speaker 3: the rental truck driven by Haskins had a deep that
- 37:51Speaker 3: led to running out of gas. I don't know if
- 37:55Speaker 3: that has been settled or anything like that, but there
- 37:57Speaker 3: was a lot to go on. But I remember this
- 38:01Speaker 3: because if we don't live too far from where this happened,
- 38:05Speaker 3: we by that location and it's a dangerous place and
- 38:10Speaker 3: I it just amazes me that people get out of
- 38:15Speaker 3: out of their vehicles on an interstate like, I get
- 38:18Speaker 3: you're having problems and I but obviously he you know,
- 38:23Speaker 3: he was under an influence, so that's probably why. But yeah,
- 38:28Speaker 3: tragic because he was he had talent. He had talent.
- 38:32Speaker 3: So it's really sad for his wife. I mean, she
- 38:36Speaker 3: had gotten a call right before, so like, I can't
- 38:39Speaker 3: imagine being the wife and receiving that call.
- 38:43Speaker 1: It was on the stuff. They were getting him back
- 38:45Speaker 1: on track, and he was trying to get his career
- 38:47Speaker 1: on track, and all of a sudden it went too fast.
- 38:50Speaker 1: All right. Well, when I say aging network, I mean
- 38:52Speaker 1: when I'm talking about this one, because we're going to
- 38:55Speaker 1: talk about Charlie Chaplin Comedia Charlie. Well, I know this
- 39:00Speaker 1: group remembers him. He died in nineteen seven and seven

- 42:10Speaker 3: His father was absent and his mother struggled financially. He
- 42:14Speaker 3: was sent to workhouse twice before the age of nine.
- 42:18Speaker 3: When he was fourteen, his mother was committed to a
- 42:20Speaker 3: mental asylum. He began performing at an early age, touring
- 42:26Speaker 3: music halls and later working at stage actors. In nineteen nineteen,
- 42:32Speaker 3: Chaplin co founded the distribution company United Artists. I did
- 42:37Speaker 3: not know that, which gave me roll over his films.

- 45:41Speaker 1: love that again, That's why I put it on here.
- 45:43Speaker 1: I mean, like, this is like a car and he
- 45:47Speaker 1: don't and look what I happened to him.
- 45:50Speaker 5: Yeah, this is how much people believe in something right
- 45:53Speaker 5: that they're just going to do.
- 45:56Speaker 4: Uh.
- 45:56Speaker 5: I love Stallone's story. Sold his dog right to get
- 45:59Speaker 5: Rocky done, and like, I mean, there's any turns out
- 46:02Speaker 5: he turned out multimillion dollar deals, like because he's gotta
- 46:05Speaker 5: play Rocky, right, And so he finally gets a deal
- 46:08Speaker 5: over thirty five grand where he gets to play Rocky.
- 46:11Speaker 4: And he turned out millions of dollars for the story.
- 46:13Speaker 5: And that turned out to be a really good decision
- 46:15Speaker 5: for Sylvester right the way and at the end of
- 46:18Speaker 5: the day, I mean, you know, when you hear about
- 46:21Speaker 5: these entrepreneurs, and I wrote about it in Leading Winning Teams.
- 46:24Speaker 5: As we were talking about these people who create a
- 46:27Speaker 5: lot of value, there is a thread of poverty, alcoholism, abuse,
- 46:35Speaker 5: you know, tragedy.
- 46:36Speaker 4: These people have faced hardships and so all of.
- 46:39Speaker 5: A sudden, it's like, wait, what, I gotta sell my car,
- 46:42Speaker 5: like big whoop.
- 46:42Speaker 4: I've taken a bus my whole life, you know, Like
- 46:45Speaker 4: I could go back.
- 46:45Speaker 5: To the bus, but I gotta get this movie sold.
- 46:47Speaker 5: I got to get these rights done. And they are
- 46:50Speaker 5: willing to sacrifice and go back to ground zero to
- 46:53Speaker 5: get it done. And I love I love the Cuban man.
- 46:56Speaker 5: I just want a good towel. I'm gonna buy fluffy towels. Right,
- 47:00Speaker 5: it's the little things that matter. And here's the story
- 47:03Speaker 5: that those people don't know. There's a statistic about salary. Right,
- 47:07Speaker 5: there's a statistic about salary. I don't know what it
- 47:09Speaker 5: is now, but it's like it used to be. I
- 47:11Speaker 5: think eighty seven thousand. There's not any happier people than
- 47:16Speaker 5: people who make more, you know, eighty seven thousand dollars.
- 47:19Speaker 4: That's the household number.
- 47:21Speaker 5: And oh well, you know, if you're w six billion
- 47:24Speaker 5: Mark Cubans happier. Not really, he's got other issues too.
- 47:28Speaker 5: He's running out on courts, yelling at referees, getting suspended
- 47:31Speaker 5: by the NBA. I mean, he's got his issues right
- 47:34Speaker 5: like it doesn't. He doesn't have to choose to be happier.
- 47:38Speaker 5: Here's chaplain who creates United Artists from nothing. He's a
- 47:41Speaker 5: poverty stricken kid, born of a tough family with no father,
- 47:45Speaker 5: who's absent than the condemned, or they put his mother
- 47:49Speaker 5: in a mental institution. And he's gonna go make his
- 47:52Speaker 5: way entertaining people because man, life has been hard and
- 47:55Speaker 5: I like to hear people laugh and it makes me
- 47:57Speaker 5: feel good to make other people laugh, which I'm sure
- 47:59Speaker 5: was a was a theme for Charlie. And this is
- 48:03Speaker 5: what people are doing because they feel their purpose in
- 48:06Speaker 5: their life and they're willing to go back to ground
- 48:08Speaker 5: zero to serve that purpose.
- 48:10Speaker 4: And I love those stories.
- 48:12Speaker 1: Oh well, you love the story about you didn't love
- 48:14Speaker 1: much about Walt Biby telling it turn out to you.
- 48:18Speaker 1: I think it's awesome.
- 48:20Speaker 2: And again, he believed in what he was doing, and
- 48:24Speaker 2: he was convinced it was going.
- 48:26Speaker 1: To be a hit. And who doesn't know who snow
- 48:29Speaker 1: White is? Right exactly. That's why snow White defeated Donald
- 48:33Speaker 1: Trump this week because I thought she really did. Who
- 48:36Speaker 1: cared about what happened on Game three? Don't care any
- 48:39Speaker 1: more about this.
- 48:40Speaker 2: I just I laughed last night as stephen A was
- 48:44Speaker 2: on TV saying that Trump ruined the next Mojo and.
- 48:50Speaker 4: He's blaming Trump.
- 48:53Speaker 2: Yeah, and again, I mean, look, you know, say what
- 48:57Speaker 2: you will about the president, but he was always a
- 49:01Speaker 2: Knicks fan, and until he, you know, ran for office,
- 49:04Speaker 2: he was at all the games, right, So I mean
- 49:08Speaker 2: it's not like he just on a whim. I'm just
- 49:11Speaker 2: gonna go to the NBA Finals in New York. I
- 49:13Speaker 2: mean he was a Knicks fan. You know, he was
- 49:15Speaker 2: always there.
- 49:17Speaker 1: So yeah, but Mike considered Walt Disney and snow White.
- 49:21Speaker 1: I mean that's a story. I mean, who was a thumb?
- 49:27Speaker 2: Yeah, but you had me going where he defeated when
- 49:31Speaker 2: snow White defeated Donald Trump.
- 49:32Speaker 1: So yeah, well you were trying to get hear that
- 49:34Speaker 1: because me, this one deeaper than what your initial thought. Yeah,
- 49:38Speaker 1: let's go and all of a sudden he pulled in
- 49:40Speaker 1: nineteen thirty got a hit. I got to come up
- 49:43Speaker 1: really really yeah, people don't if you Walt Disney mortgages
- 49:48Speaker 1: is out and told the car to finance and Bertuil
- 49:51Speaker 1: snow white. And now you see what Disney is today.
- 49:54Speaker 1: And in the thirties he got the Disney World, Disneyland,
- 49:57Speaker 1: and Disney Everything, Disney Network. All right, son, I mean
- 50:01Speaker 1: think about it, Trent, And this is Clarky first roll
- 50:04Speaker 1: around here with all this off the wall stuff that
- 50:06Speaker 1: he's not used to getting. And I'm coming up with
- 50:09Speaker 1: all this stuff. So there you go. People, if you'll
- 50:11Speaker 1: learn anything, you realize that Walt Disney, okay, in his
- 50:16Speaker 1: own world and his own land is now white to
- 50:21Speaker 1: make him a millionaire, billionaire whatever you call it. All right, Candy,
- 50:25Speaker 1: not a lot of research, although your research a little.
- 50:27Speaker 1: What are your thoughts about this story?
- 50:30Speaker 3: My part of the story is it was a released
- 50:35Speaker 3: December twenty one of nineteen thirty seven at a cost
- 50:39Speaker 3: of one point five million back in the thirties, right wow.
- 50:47Speaker 3: Now that's why he had to mortgage everything despite initial
- 50:51Speaker 3: doubts from the film industry, because let's face it, it was
- 50:54Speaker 3: one of the longest films at that time because it
- 50:57Speaker 3: was eighty three minutes long. It initially earned more than
- 51:02Speaker 3: eight million dollars during its initial release, and now it
- 51:08Speaker 3: is one of the highest grossing animated films for over
- 51:11Speaker 3: how many years, it's over two billion. I think it's
- 51:16Speaker 3: earned or two trillion. I don't even know two with
- 51:18Speaker 3: a lot of zeros after it now, but exactly.
- 51:23Speaker 2: I mean, I think I think it's next year it'll
- 51:26Speaker 2: be it's ninetyeth birthday. Yeah, it'll be ninety years old
- 51:31Speaker 2: next year.
- 51:33Speaker 4: It's a pretty good return on that investment.
- 51:39Speaker 5: And by the way, if you haven't, if you haven't
- 51:41Speaker 5: seen the movie of Like the Disney where he's getting
- 51:43Speaker 5: Mary Poppins and works on her for like a year
- 51:46Speaker 5: to get that, to get the book, like that is
- 51:49Speaker 5: a great film. Tom Hanks plays Disney and it's awesome.
- 51:55Speaker 3: I think it's really great that he believed in himself
- 51:58Speaker 3: and he bet on himself. And look at how that won,
- 52:01Speaker 3: you know, I mean, I've almost compared to like Serena Williams.
- 52:06Speaker 3: Look at she bet on herself. She came back and
- 52:09Speaker 3: she won her first match back after four years hiatus.
- 52:13Speaker 3: So I think you gotta believe in yourself, put everything
- 52:16Speaker 3: into yourself, and look what can happen.
- 52:20Speaker 1: All Right, we've got more talk about. Oh yeah, she
- 52:24Speaker 1: really has one question. One of the tent of players have.
- 52:27Speaker 1: All right, well, guess what We will ban mobile phones
- 52:31Speaker 1: in schools beginning this autumn twenty twenty, says, So, no
- 52:34Speaker 1: more mobile phones in schools. We can get to right,
- 52:39Speaker 1: can't talk on the phone in school or you're gonna
- 52:42Speaker 1: get caught, all right, Clarky.
- 52:46Speaker 4: Who's this is a national law. We're banning phones.
- 52:49Speaker 1: Absolute and banning mobile phones in schools nationwide from beginning
- 52:56Speaker 1: in autumn, which is obviously I think they call it
- 52:58Speaker 1: follow twenty twenty six.
- 53:00Speaker 5: Well, I, first of all, that's first I've ever heard
- 53:03Speaker 5: of this, and like, it's amazing.
- 53:05Speaker 4: I'm very interested to see if they can get this
- 53:07Speaker 4: push through. That's amazing.
- 53:11Speaker 5: But you know, I remember the story about maybe a
- 53:15Speaker 5: year ago. Not a huge fan of like Australian politics,
- 53:19Speaker 5: but I really like the fact that they passed that
- 53:23Speaker 5: you could not have social media until a kid was
- 53:26Speaker 5: sixteen years old, and I thought that was a great law.
- 53:31Speaker 5: I think this, I mean, I see a lot more
- 53:34Speaker 5: upside than downside on this law, Like, I think there's
- 53:37Speaker 5: a lot of value there get interaction back with kids.
- 53:41Speaker 5: I'm sure there's gonna be some challenges, you know, with
- 53:43Speaker 5: families that need to communicate, and it's challenged with kids,
- 53:48Speaker 5: and that is a beacon of you know, families that
- 53:54Speaker 5: are struggling to communicate and not easy without a phone.
- 54:00Speaker 5: But uh, you know what school school, man, it's six hours,
- 54:02Speaker 5: six and a half hours. It's just not that big.
- 54:05Speaker 5: And I think I'm for this law, by.
- 54:09Speaker 4: The way, I am totally for it.
- 54:11Speaker 1: Yeah, and too you get away with it and Sweden
- 54:14Speaker 1: do it absolutely to be learning in school now.
- 54:18Speaker 2: Spend too much time, they spend too much time on
- 54:21Speaker 2: the phone and not enough time.
- 54:23Speaker 1: I mean look at our reading.
- 54:25Speaker 2: And you know, science scores and math scores, you know,
- 54:30Speaker 2: compared to the rest of the world.
- 54:31Speaker 1: I mean they're they're terrible now.
- 54:33Speaker 2: And yeah, they need to get education back in school.
- 54:40Speaker 1: Sweden making a good step to do a candy course.
- 54:42Speaker 2: I don't have a kid in school, so I can
- 54:44Speaker 2: say that because right now, you know, if I did,
- 54:47Speaker 2: he'd probably be you know, fighting me, tucking.
- 54:51Speaker 1: I don't have a kid in school, but I adopted
- 54:53Speaker 1: one over the weekend. And then Rusby Candy up at
- 54:56Speaker 1: the photo open a man of Candy got the last
- 54:58Speaker 1: word a topic that two more topics. Course, we change
- 55:00Speaker 1: it around nine o'clock so we'll get to whatever we
- 55:02Speaker 1: have on the agenda. That go ahead, Candy.
- 55:05Speaker 3: So Sweden has implemented the nationwide band on the schools
- 55:09Speaker 3: for children up to grade nine, which is ages fifteen
- 55:13Speaker 3: to sixteen. Students must hand in or put away their
- 55:17Speaker 3: devices upon arrival to minimize classroom distractions and promote a
- 55:21Speaker 3: focus on traditional textbook based learning. Students are required to
- 55:26Speaker 3: store their phones in designated mobile hotels, secure boxes or
- 55:30Speaker 3: lockers at the beginning of the school day, retrieving them
- 55:33Speaker 3: only after classes end. I think part of it too is,
- 55:38Speaker 3: let's face it, they keep talking about healthy screen habits
- 55:43Speaker 3: and how much it affects our health and our eyes
- 55:46Speaker 3: and our vision. And if we're constantly on phones and
- 55:50Speaker 3: they're on phones and on tablets, and then they go
- 55:52Speaker 3: home and they watch TV and they're on tablets, like
- 55:55Speaker 3: that's just too much. They need to go back to
- 56:01Speaker 3: traditional learning.
- 56:03Speaker 4: Now.
- 56:03Speaker 3: I'm not saying that there isn't a time and a place,
- 56:05Speaker 3: but also that young they get enough of it at home.
- 56:08Speaker 3: Because let's face it, if the parents are working, they're
- 56:11Speaker 3: not at home or the kids are still looking at it.
- 56:14Speaker 3: I mean we've gone out to restaurants and you see
- 56:17Speaker 3: instead of a family talking, they're all hiding on their
- 56:20Speaker 3: phone and texting, and we need to go back to
- 56:25Speaker 3: being able to talk to people and have conversations. And
- 56:30Speaker 3: it's just sad. So I applaud them. I think this
- 56:33Speaker 3: is a great move by them.
- 56:35Speaker 1: Okay, let's go back in heretory. Here's a good one
- 56:37Speaker 1: for everybody. Everybody I likes McDonald's. I'll give you some
- 56:40Speaker 1: good old McDonald's story. Steve and I only talk about
- 56:42Speaker 1: Iceland not having McDonald's, But what was the first one
- 56:45Speaker 1: actually invented? Oh? May fifteenth, nineteen forty. The first McDonald's
- 56:50Speaker 1: was open by the McDonald's brother Richard and Maurice. McDonald's.
- 56:54Speaker 1: First restaurant was in sanburn Ardino, California, a lead off
- 56:58Speaker 1: of Steat. Yeah.
- 57:00Speaker 2: I remember reading about that in nineteen forty and look
- 57:03Speaker 2: where they have come. And again, I mean they had
- 57:10Speaker 2: you know, they had a vision of creating something where
- 57:15Speaker 2: it's going to give people comfort because you know what
- 57:18Speaker 2: you're gonna get no matter where you go that there's
- 57:21Speaker 2: not that. Oh, we don't know if this place is
- 57:24Speaker 2: going to be any good. So you know, the original
- 57:27Speaker 2: thought behind all the McDonald's was, you know, if you're
- 57:31Speaker 2: traveling and you go somewhere, you know what you're going
- 57:35Speaker 2: to get. And it obviously worked. And now how many
- 57:40Speaker 2: billions of hamburgers have they sold? I don't even want
- 57:44Speaker 2: to recall, but yeah, I think that's awesome.
- 57:47Speaker 1: No lot, I'm gonna have one more topic. I'll have
- 57:49Speaker 1: a couple carry over once for the next show with
- 57:51Speaker 1: Steven trent On. But go ahead, Candy, which all the
- 57:55Speaker 1: Golden arches a lot overseas? Didn't we We did?
- 58:00Speaker 3: Now I've been told and we didn't do this, But
- 58:02Speaker 3: I've been told when you go overseas, you're supposed to
- 58:04Speaker 3: go to McDonald's because it's upscale and it's not the
- 58:08Speaker 3: same as it is here. But let me give you
- 58:10Speaker 3: some points on the first one, far from the global
- 58:14Speaker 3: burger empire it is today. It began as a classic
- 58:18Speaker 3: barbecue drive in. The concept was it was a drive
- 58:23Speaker 3: in restaurant featuring large scale car hops service where servers
- 58:27Speaker 3: on roller skates or on foot delivered food directly to
- 58:31Speaker 3: customers in their vehicle. The original boasted about twenty five items.
- 58:36Speaker 3: It was centered around barbecue ribs, beef and pork, sandwiches,
- 58:40Speaker 3: hot dogs, and a few burger options. The famous fifteen
- 58:45Speaker 3: cent hamburger and the Streamline speedy service system were not
- 58:49Speaker 3: introduced until nineteen forty eight, when the brothers realized eighty
- 58:54Speaker 3: percent of their sales came from Hamburgers.
- 58:59Speaker 1: There you have it, Trent.
- 59:02Speaker 5: Ray Kroc Man Ray Kroc just took that thing and
- 59:05Speaker 5: they did a household name.
- 59:07Speaker 4: And it's amazing, Like and I have done this.
- 59:11Speaker 5: I've you know, spoken over seventeen countries, been in over
- 59:14Speaker 5: thirty and I do go.
- 59:17Speaker 4: To McDonald's amost in every country I went.
- 59:18Speaker 5: When I was in the Olympics, I did not go
- 59:20Speaker 5: in Ireland, which I would have liked to have done
- 59:22Speaker 5: that last month.
- 59:24Speaker 4: But I have tested it, you know, And you know this.
- 59:28Speaker 5: Is also a testimony to systems right. And Steve Will
- 59:33Speaker 5: tested this systems work, and our military is really good
- 59:37Speaker 5: at systems right. And so now you got these kids this.
- 59:40Speaker 5: You know, I have people tell me they can't run
- 59:42Speaker 5: their system and their company, and I'm like, you have
- 59:44Speaker 5: forty year old engineers all over the place. I'm like,
- 59:48Speaker 5: McDonald's runs the same burger all over the country with
- 59:50Speaker 5: seventeen year olds. Don't tell me you can't build a
- 59:53Speaker 5: system that actually serves.
- 59:55Speaker 4: So they have done it. And the quarter pounder with
- 59:58Speaker 4: cheese is America, in uh Ador, in Paris, in Shanghai, China.
- 1:00:05Speaker 5: Is all the same and it is roese.
- 1:00:11Speaker 4: It maybe caught something different, but I'm telling you it's
- 1:00:14Speaker 4: gonna taste the same.
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: Yeah, candy, and I never made McDonald's overseas. Other ideas,
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: all right, one more topic. I want to get to
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: everybody spoken on this one, but at it's time on
- 1:00:27Speaker 1: my bucket list to do overseas. But it was good
- 1:00:29Speaker 1: to take pictures with Petra Sure final top of the night,
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: all of a couple of going to carry over because
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: this group is so good. I definitely had to carry
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: the next two over state. And for what they'll be later,
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: who knows, they might even be in the headline. But
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: nothing but tonight the title is classics. Now White defeats
- 1:00:45Speaker 1: Donald Trump. And now you know why, Steven, it wasn't
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: the reason you were thinking about. Igret says Americans won't
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: back Trump Donald Trump forever. On I ran more noted
- 1:00:55Speaker 1: that the spike and oil prices could be an early
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: deterrent for his supporters. All right, Trent, they don't need
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: an hour give me the cliff notes version, because we
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: could talk forever on this. But I think News probably
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: right correct on this one.
- 1:01:10Speaker 4: Do you think they're correct on it?
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: I said, well, I said forever. Yeah.
- 1:01:15Speaker 5: I think.
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: You can only have so much. At some point, this
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: thing's got to come to a head. That's why I'm
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: I kind of understand where New where New gigrets is
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: coming awayt Yeah.
- 1:01:27Speaker 5: Yeah, And I think you know, Trump's done a pretty
- 1:01:30Speaker 5: good job of backing up what he said he was
- 1:01:32Speaker 5: going to do. So if he's going to do that,
- 1:01:35Speaker 5: and he's gonna frack and build in the US and
- 1:01:37Speaker 5: we're going to be self sustaining, listen, now's the time,
- 1:01:40Speaker 5: right because you know, do you know, do you need
- 1:01:43Speaker 5: iron if you do what you said you were going
- 1:01:45Speaker 5: to do, so, I think that's gonna be a big factor.
- 1:01:49Speaker 5: I think our neighbors to the north should also be
- 1:01:51Speaker 5: a factor in this. Like, you know, we've had oil
- 1:01:53Speaker 5: sands for a while. When when oil gets to this
- 1:01:56Speaker 5: at a barrel, you know, oil sands are very efficient
- 1:01:59Speaker 5: and effective, and so there's got to be something some
- 1:02:03Speaker 5: you know, way we can collaborate here in the West
- 1:02:06Speaker 5: of how we're going to bring our prices and be
- 1:02:08Speaker 5: self sustaining and not be reliant on everything else. And
- 1:02:12Speaker 5: and the challenge is, at the end of the day,
- 1:02:14Speaker 5: if we were self reliant, would we be sending our
- 1:02:16Speaker 5: young men and women over there to be in a
- 1:02:19Speaker 5: very dangerous situation. So if we were to fix that
- 1:02:23Speaker 5: and repair that and remedy that, I think he can
- 1:02:27Speaker 5: get that support.
- 1:02:28Speaker 4: But the interim, you know.
- 1:02:30Speaker 5: Five dollars as in Cali it was seven dollars a gallon,
- 1:02:34Speaker 5: Like you know, Steve talking about doing business out there.
- 1:02:36Speaker 5: Who can live out there when gas is seven dollars
- 1:02:39Speaker 5: You've got to get a bike. So like, at the
- 1:02:41Speaker 5: end of the day, he's got to.
- 1:02:43Speaker 4: Remedy that or the next election will be affected.
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: Yeah, it's and it's probably well as we know, and
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: we've talked about it here on this show. The Iranians
- 1:02:57Speaker 2: are great at stalling, and that's what they're stalling for
- 1:03:00Speaker 2: is they want to prolong this because they don't want
- 1:03:05Speaker 2: you know, the Republicans in office in November. They'd rather
- 1:03:10Speaker 2: see the Democrats in there, but to trench point and
- 1:03:18Speaker 2: there's work afoot that's going to negate a lot of
- 1:03:24Speaker 2: the straight at home moves and the golf, the oil
- 1:03:27Speaker 2: that comes out of the Gulf, because a lot of countries,
- 1:03:30Speaker 2: especially Japan, South Korea, they get ninety five percent of
- 1:03:35Speaker 2: their role from the golf. And you know they're they're
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: now building large storage facilities jointly so they can stockpile
- 1:03:47Speaker 2: oil in case something like this happens. But the United States, Venezuela, Kazakhstan,
- 1:03:53Speaker 2: and Canada have all increased their production with the point
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: being that people are going to buy the oil from
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: them in the future and not have to rely on
- 1:04:06Speaker 2: it coming through the Gulf. Because again, you know a
- 1:04:09Speaker 2: lot of these countries that are relying on Gulf oil
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: right now, you know, they're off the mind that Okay, yeah,
- 1:04:18Speaker 2: you might make a deal today, what happens a year
- 1:04:21Speaker 2: from now if the Iranians decide now, we're going to
- 1:04:24Speaker 2: close the straight again.
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: So I think what you're going to see.
- 1:04:30Speaker 2: You know, it might not be tomorrow, it definitely won't
- 1:04:34Speaker 2: be by November, but you're going to see oil producing
- 1:04:39Speaker 2: countries other than in the Gulf take over the oil
- 1:04:43Speaker 2: market and not rely on stuff coming through that straight anymore.
- 1:04:49Speaker 2: And I think at that point, you know, the Iranians,
- 1:04:54Speaker 2: if the regime is still in place down the road
- 1:04:58Speaker 2: and they're going to lose all their leverage at.
- 1:05:00Speaker 5: That point, go ahead, we have we have a ran
- 1:05:07Speaker 5: and they've got They've got a lot of people around the.
- 1:05:09Speaker 4: World over the barrel, right, they got and they gotta
- 1:05:13Speaker 4: put out it. And you know what, once they lose
- 1:05:15Speaker 4: that leverage, then what now we still have We still
- 1:05:18Speaker 4: have a.
- 1:05:19Speaker 5: Factor of you know, do they have war, you know,
- 1:05:23Speaker 5: mass destruction and blah blah blah, like that is still concern.
- 1:05:26Speaker 5: Our securities to evil speak to that a lot highly
- 1:05:29Speaker 5: more than I can, but it is still going to
- 1:05:31Speaker 5: be a factor. But I think that oil can be
- 1:05:34Speaker 5: solved and it would mitigate their strength and power when
- 1:05:38Speaker 5: when we become self serving and self and and and
- 1:05:42Speaker 5: I agree with Steve, like listen, you know they're fighting
- 1:05:44Speaker 5: currently with the arms we gave him out of our
- 1:05:46Speaker 5: democratic policy. So like I'm sure they want the democratics back.
- 1:05:50Speaker 5: So I don't like the idea of going into a
- 1:05:53Speaker 5: war where our a threat to our personnel and our
- 1:05:58Speaker 5: uh national citizens is due to a full paw of
- 1:06:01Speaker 5: leaving weapons behind and all the other challenges that come
- 1:06:04Speaker 5: in and it's uh, it's these things got to get remedied.
- 1:06:07Speaker 4: Man.
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: You know, I'll just say this much about it and
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: Candy have the last word will be short and when
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: sports to change, coming up station and breaking in a moment.
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: But let's dependent you be come on the Gulf. The
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: better off you are if you can find alternative sources.
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: And I think that's where the seesaw drifts toward the
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: United States. So I think that I understand this needs
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: to get solved, but you have to do it under
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: the right circumstances for sure, and not do it prematurely.
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: I think the United States that they find other sources
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: to get oil. It does obviously make Iran's job hold
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: out a little bit more difficult. Candy, get it quick.
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: We'd got it and then we're going to wrap things
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: up as we get ready to for to change at
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: about nine ten minutes.
- 1:06:48Speaker 3: Well, let's face it, with the price of gas as
- 1:06:50Speaker 3: high as it has gotten, it has put a squeeze
- 1:06:54Speaker 3: on a lot of people and their extra income because
- 1:06:58Speaker 3: they don't have it ingram, they're not going out to
- 1:07:01Speaker 3: eat as much. They're not buying as much because it
- 1:07:04Speaker 3: costs them more just to get to and from work.
- 1:07:07Speaker 3: So it trickles down and affects a lot of people
- 1:07:10Speaker 3: in a lot of different ways. People are canceling trips
- 1:07:14Speaker 3: because they can't afford you know, the gas. Airlines have
- 1:07:18Speaker 3: increased their prices, you know, tremendously, and everyone's feeling the squeeze.
- 1:07:23Speaker 3: I mean, let's face it, you go to the grocery
- 1:07:25Speaker 3: store and everything is costing you more because it takes
- 1:07:28Speaker 3: it takes them gas to get the products to the
- 1:07:32Speaker 3: store and then you've got to buy them. So it's
- 1:07:35Speaker 3: definitely trickling down. I think everybody is feeling it for sure.
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: Well that does. This is a sports to chamber. We're
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: not done with our business yet, okay, Candy. Once you
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: get ahead and give everybody an overview what we're doing here,
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: including the new YouTube channel, then we have trench steam
- 1:07:51Speaker 1: and then we'll get some forts and change in about
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: eight or nine minutes. Go ahead, Candy.
