  Speaker 5: So yeah, so we wrote about I remember about our
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: early in our Instagram, like early on stages of Instagram,
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: and it was about you know, him starting a company
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: right called Bola, and it talked about him putting five
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: million dollars into it and the company.
• 2:51

  Speaker 6: Appreciate thanks for having me, Fellows. I appreciate it. We
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: appreciate you.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: So all right, can you just give the people a
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: quick backstory I wrote, but I think it's a really
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: dope story as far as to how you got into
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: the marijuana cannabis industry, as far as you know, starting
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: out with the seed money.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: I believe it currently come wrong.
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: But you couldn't even do it in your names and
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: your cousin's name, right, correct, because you didn't want to
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: like cross those lines.
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: Yeah, man, I didn't want to lose my contract. But
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: I saw an opportunity that made a lot of sense.
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: And you know, For me, it was all about being
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: able to help you.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. It wasn't about just the
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: financial game.
• 3:42
  Speaker 6: It was like wow, you know, so like you said,
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: just to touch on the backstory, you know, we're from
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: the same area, so you already know like the old
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: War on drugs and it was explained to us, and
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: you know, we was taught that, you know, cannabis is
• 3:55
  Speaker 6: a gateway drug. We saw people getting locked up for
• 3:58
  Speaker 6: having weed and all that. So you know, I know,
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: I ain't want to never get locked up, you know
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying. My mom who my ayes, you know
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying. And in the fact, and I didn't
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: want to be a crackhead either, you know what I'm saying.
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: For me, I stayed away from it, you know, as
• 4:13
  Speaker 6: far away from it as I could. But when I
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: got to the NBA, it was the first time and
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: I saw like active players that was actually like killing
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: on a nightling basis, smoking heavy tree, you know what
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: I'm saying. That's when I first realized that, yo, we
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: was being lied to. But it's still you know, it
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: still wasn't for me, you know what I'm saying. Just
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: can you see somebody do something. I mean, it's for you,
• 4:33
  Speaker 6: you know what I mean. I always felt that smoking
• 4:35
  Speaker 6: was just bad for you in general, you know what
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: I'm saying. So I stayed away from it. So throughout
• 4:40
  Speaker 6: my career, like I said, I had teammates that you
• 4:42
  Speaker 6: used to smoke heavy. Stephen Jackson's one that I could
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: throw out there, Matt Barnes and some of the guys
• 4:47
  Speaker 6: that I won't mention now, but you know, I.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Had teammates that actually huld to smoke.
• 4:53
  Speaker 6: So you know, I would ask a little questions and
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: all that, and they would tell me, like, yo, I
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: smoke because of this. I smoke because of that, And
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: like I said, it was productive. So it changed the
• 5:01
  Speaker 6: way I thought about cannabis. So, you know, fast forward
• 5:04
  Speaker 6: to when I signed with the Denver Nuggets in two
• 5:06
  Speaker 6: thousand and nine or ten, when I left the Knicks.
• 5:09
  Speaker 6: You know, when I got there, they had just started
• 5:10
  Speaker 6: in medical program or whatever. So you know, I want
• 5:13
  Speaker 6: him do this to always read the newspaper, especially with
• 5:16
  Speaker 6: being George Carby and my coach. And you see, he's
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: definitely exposed himself since he's stopped coaching the type of
• 5:22
  Speaker 6: asshole that he was. He was the type of coach
• 5:26
  Speaker 6: that when we won the game, it was because of him.
• 5:27
  Speaker 6: When we lost, it was our fault. So I used
• 5:29
  Speaker 6: always read the paper just to see what he was saying.
• 5:31
  Speaker 6: But at the same time, I was picking up the
• 5:33
  Speaker 6: newspaper every morning and it was always something about the
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: benefits of cannabis. So my grandmother come to see me
• 5:39
  Speaker 6: play towards the end of my first season there in twenty.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: Eleven, and you know, she got there.
• 5:44
  Speaker 6: She had me put this pillow box up on her
• 5:46
  Speaker 6: counter and she saw taking all this medication and the
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: athlete and he said, Grandma, like taking so many vitamins.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: And she's like, boy, he's.
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: Not vitamin She's like, I got eye, blood pressure, diabetes,
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: gla cooma. And I was like, Grandma, I was just
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: reading the paper the other day that cannabis help with glacoma.
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: And I was telling everything I was reading, and finally
• 6:04
  Speaker 6: she said, well, what is cannabis? And I was like,
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: you know, marijuana weed. She's like, reefuck, ain't no way,
• 6:11
  Speaker 6: no reef going to help me out composition. And she's
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: seventy nine years old this time at the time, right,
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: and I'm you know, so I'm starting to educate up,
• 6:19
  Speaker 6: but she shuts me down. So the next day I
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: come home and out the games, I come home and
• 6:22
  Speaker 6: shoot around and she's sitting in my kitchen and you know,
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: she's sitting with her hands in them, facing her hands,
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: and I'm like, Grandma, what's up? And she look up
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: and she's squating and she's like, that's your baby doll.
• 6:31
  Speaker 6: She's like, my eyes are so bad that I could
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: barely see. So I say, Grandma, you tell me you
• 6:34
  Speaker 6: saying all that medication and you're still in pain, like
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: it's not working at all, and she's like it's hit
• 6:39
  Speaker 6: and miss I was like, look, this would be our secret,
• 6:41
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: I was like, just try it. And you know, and
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: I believe in.
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: God, right, you know, I grew up in church and everything,
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: and you know, as we all know, like old people
• 6:50
  Speaker 6: are hard.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: To change their beliefs and then they waves, you know what,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: I know what I'm saying. And my grandmother, I was time,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: like she's not going to heaven. We're all going to
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying.
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: And not only that, like she was a back going
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: to my family back and going to the church. So
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: like I mean she's so straight and narrow, and for
• 7:07
  Speaker 6: her to say, okay, I'll try it, that was God
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: to me, you know what I'm saying.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: He was helping me pick what was next.
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: For me, which I was blessed because a lot of
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: players where you know, we talk about the financial literacy
• 7:18
  Speaker 6: and stuff like that, which sucks. And a lot of
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: guys when they get done playing on the what's next?
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, they so used to be
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: chasing after room. When that's over, it's just like it's
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: such a brude awakening. It's just like you don't know
• 7:28
  Speaker 6: what they're doing a lot of times you start to
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: spend money to be relevant, you know what I'm saying,
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: and that's how they run through the bag, you know.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: What I'm saying.
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: So, you know, so I talked to her about it
• 7:39
  Speaker 6: or whatever, and she's just like, you know what, I'm
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: in so much pain they I'll try and think. So
• 7:42
  Speaker 6: I called my boy. I was like, yo, you got
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: a little dispensary. Fine, gets something for you know, for glackoma.
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: And I'm not a smoke at the time, So I
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: don't know what to recommend. No indecoods of TV. I
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: don't know nothing. So he bring back Vietnam cushion and
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: and it's how we Vavee rose in front of a baby,
• 7:58
  Speaker 6: you know, and that's harsh. So taking the garage and
• 8:01
  Speaker 6: she starts smoking it and like she's like blowing it
• 8:03
  Speaker 6: in and blowing it out her nose like perfect. I'm
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: looking at it like like, well, I spoke a cigarette
• 8:11
  Speaker 6: one time, and a long story short, you know, she smoked.
• 8:15
  Speaker 6: I took it downstairs. I went to the nap. I
• 8:18
  Speaker 6: woke up an hour and a half later, and before
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: I got dressed, I said, we'll go check on to
• 8:22
  Speaker 6: make sure she cool. And I went downstairs and uh
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: knocked on the door. Back to the door, and she
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: was looking down. I was like, Grandma, you're good. And
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: then she turned around. She was crying to and she
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: was like I'm here. She's like, you know how the
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: big read the words of my wife went over three years.
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: Wow.
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: So that's my inspiration. That's my story. That's how I
• 8:40
  Speaker 6: got into cannabis. And you know, we decided, you know,
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: me and my cousin who was my business partner, we
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: designed to name of the company after her name is Bayo.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: So that's how we got out. You know that's our
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: origin story and how we start. Yeah, now that's dope.
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: We could just talk about the the league for a
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: little bit, because yeah, you know, we do write a
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: lot of stories and important. It's unfortunate, right with a
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: lot of guys. I even Kochie had spoken when he
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: was saying the past. The problem that a lot of
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: guys have it that they don't know that passion after right,
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: and even if you have a long career thirty five
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: thirty seven, that's still relatively young in life, right.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: So and then I also shout to Sebastian. You know,
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: he fell on some hard times. He just you got convicted,
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: so you know, we're praying for him.
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: But he he had a good clip too where he said,
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: you know, he kind of explained how a lot of
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: guys fall into financial hardship because when you get paid,
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: it's not like you get fifty million dollars all at once.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Right, we know that there's a jock tax. Like every
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: state that you go in, you pay the state tax,
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: and then you know, you get.
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: Paid twice a month, then you have to pay everybody else,
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: and then a lot of times you you don't have
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: the financial literacy when you're coming into the league, so
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: you know, you all of your stuff is kind of
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: like out front.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Now you got to kind of pay it back, right,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: So can you.
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: Just talk about that briefly as far as like because
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: you you are you weren't inside, so you know, as
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: far as like.
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: That, and you played for multiple teams for a few states, Yeah,
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: I mean obviously the text stuff and you know, that
• 9:56
  Speaker 6: is what it is. And you know, I got a
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: story of my rookie year, you know, they they sent
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: me and then they sent me my taxes to sign
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: or whatever, and you know it was like all these books,
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: you know, yay high And I looked at it and
• 10:10
  Speaker 6: I ain't know what it was.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: So I took in, I put up in my closet.
• 10:14
  Speaker 6: I was singing Antonio Davis as a ripper, And like
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: two weeks later, I came home and he was sitting
• 10:20
  Speaker 6: there and he was signing those same books. One day
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: and when I came in, I'm like, what's up, big fellay,
• 10:25
  Speaker 6: like chilling, like what you're doing. He's like, I'm signing,
• 10:28
  Speaker 6: you know, paying taxes. He's like, you got yours. I
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: was like, I got some books like that. A couple
• 10:33
  Speaker 6: of weeks ago, on the day of my closet. He's like,
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: go get them, So I go get them. Bring me
• 10:37
  Speaker 6: he like smack me behind my head, like those your
• 10:40
  Speaker 6: taxi at that time, you're eighteen eighteen years old, right,
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: I remember I just turned nineteen because I remember that.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: The challenges this man, it's like we first generation money exactly.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. That's the thing is like
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: we didn't learn how to make that money. You understand
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: what I'm saying. We didn't.
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: Really I'm not gonna say we didn't earn it. Definitely
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: earned it, but we didn't learn how to make it.
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: We didn't run a business. We didn't learn how to
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: balance books and the running the p and ls and
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: all that type of stuff.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
• 11:07
  Speaker 6: That's kind of after the fact that a lot of
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: times what happened with the players, which sucks, is that
• 11:12
  Speaker 6: we had financial advisors and agents and all that that
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: discourage us to learn how to do that. They just like,
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: pay me, I'll take care of keep to the blood,
• 11:20
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. And that's the issue that
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: we had. It's like, no, like and I learned that
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: after I turned twenty eight, is when I started taking
• 11:28
  Speaker 6: a that's say, interest in where my money was going
• 11:31
  Speaker 6: in taxes I was paying, how I was paying taxes,
• 11:33
  Speaker 6: where my.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: Money was actually going up.
• 11:35
  Speaker 6: Until that point, I was just having fun and I
• 11:37
  Speaker 6: was just trusting that they had my back, you know
• 11:39
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying. So that responsibility of first money is
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: just is very tough man, because you know, it's nobody
• 11:46
  Speaker 6: in your family you can really go to. You know
• 11:48
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying, They don't know. The mothers, you know,
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: have credit bad, Dad, credit bad, Grandma, credit bad. They
• 11:54
  Speaker 6: don't know, you know what I'm saying. So you end
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: up having to trust somebody that you don't know, and
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: you just got to pray to God it right. You
• 12:00
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. Where I was lucky was that
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: I had a financial guy. You know, I ain't gonna
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: lie my first my rookie deal. When I got done
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: with my rookie deal, so I probably made just something
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: two million bucks right over four years span. Because I
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: was a twenty fifth PIX, I ain't make as much bread,
• 12:15
  Speaker 6: but like I had like thirty thousand dollars in my
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: name after that. You know what I'm saying, I ain't
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: know about my mother, Alexis, I bought two benses, I
• 12:21
  Speaker 6: bought a crib. I ain't know, you know what I'm saying.
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: But after that, once that happened, that's when I moved
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: to my new financial advisors and they started teaching me
• 12:30
  Speaker 6: there like look, you buy this, or they even took
• 12:32
  Speaker 6: a little stuff with like you know, if I can't
• 12:34
  Speaker 6: wait for something with cash, I can't afford it.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: And that was a great mindset to give me.
• 12:38
  Speaker 6: So now I'm not gonna go and buy five five
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: hundred thousand dollars cars now two point five million. I oh,
• 12:45
  Speaker 6: you understand what I'm saying that, Like, Okay, if I'm
• 12:47
  Speaker 6: gonna spend five on I gotta get what I can
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: get you for that.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: You see what I'm saying. So little things like that
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: is what helped me, you know what I'm saying.
• 12:53
  Speaker 6: And you know the players I just say, you know,
• 12:56
  Speaker 6: it takes some time, you know what I'm saying, Like
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: you kind of got to get your feet in then
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: start figuring it out or whatever. But I will always
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: tell these guys like, you know, take the time to
• 13:05
  Speaker 6: learn about your money and learn like how you spending
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: it and who's spending it, where it's going and finding
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: out tax breaks and starting now for profits and if
• 13:14
  Speaker 6: you're gonna pay take care of your mom, do it
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: this way. You're gonna take care of your family, do
• 13:17
  Speaker 6: it this way. And uh, you know, it's very challenging,
• 13:20
  Speaker 6: you know, you know what I'm saying, because you know,
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: like I said, being first generation money and you know,
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: a lot of people make you feel.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: Like they like you own. I want you, I want
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: you to want you will.
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: Cook, you know what I'm saying, And you feel bad.
• 13:33
  Speaker 6: Next thing, you know, you're gonna spend some bread, you
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: So it's tough. But you know the good thing about
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: these guys making so much money down I think they.
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: Definitely more of a window to kind of make some
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: mistakes and still be okay that.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: Keep getting better. To absolutely that's a game.
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: And it's important too because so I'm a financial or
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: choice of teacher and educat, so yeah, I see it firsthand.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: As far as like a right, they're not a lot
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: of financial advisors that.
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: Look like me, right, So a lot of this Some
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: guys offers they might work with athletes things that nature,
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: and I can just tell they're not looking at them
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: as the peers, because they're at the peers, right, and
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: they're looking at them as I mean, took it, and
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: it's like, Okay, when you're done playing, it's over right. Like,
• 14:20
  Speaker 5: so I think that it's important, like you said that
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: the athletes have to start empowering themselves or work with
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: people that are interested in empowering them right. And I
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: think that's one of the good things even with our platform,
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: is that there's so much information available now and that's
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: why we definitely want to sit.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Down with you and we'll talk about you know, your
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: business now in the next segment.
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: But you really have to You can't the days of
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: just letting somebody do with whatever they want and being
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: blind and over right. We can't afford that to happen
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: because we've seen it happen every generation.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: Right. We want the article page about Chris Bobs R. Yeah,
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: twenty five million dollars said you know nothing.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: About finance or telling you so do you never walked?
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: I'm uncle exactly. It's like how possible his state was?
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: Like back to Chris Bosher's like his main focus is
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: I have to train, I have to perform and to
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: keep my body up.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: That's the only thing in folks. And it's like, but
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: you're getting paid to do this, like that's.
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: Almost as equally as important, right, like to say you
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: have you don't know anything about finance, you just sign
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty five like it's mind body, right.
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: Well it's it's really, it's reality and put the thing
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: about it, not even not even the put because nobody
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: really do anything about finance.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: I know a lot of doctors don't anything about find
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: the difference that their career is. Don't be forty years exactly.
• 15:33
  Speaker 5: You you were fortunate when you had a second contract, right,
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: but what if you didn't have that second contractor you
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: say you have thirty thousands not out the league.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: Now you're now you're really screwed and you're what twenty
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: four at that time, maybe twenty two?
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: Right?
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so all right, my whole life in front of me. Yeah, disasterous.
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: So now we're going to go into the business side
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: of things. All right, So now we're gonna talk about
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: you know, you you you built an empire. This is
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: an impact band person, so you.
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: Know, especially like you said, in our community, right, Unfortunately
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: there's countless people during ten, fifteen, twenty years, thirty years,
• 16:10
  Speaker 5: fed time, stay time for marijuana.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: Right, for marijuana.
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: So now we're in a position where you can actually
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: make money legally off of marijuana. Right. So it's one thing,
• 16:20
  Speaker 5: all right, because I get this question a lot Instagram
• 16:23
  Speaker 5: and people just in general, they're like, how do I
• 16:25
  Speaker 5: get involved in the marijuana business? So you can buy stock,
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: we'll talk about that. But you actually built a company, right,
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: so can you just talk about that because I'm sure
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: that there's a lot of people. I know for a
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: fact that there's a lot of people that want to
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: get involved in but they don't know how to go about.
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: They don't know licenses you have to do, they don't know,
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: like you know, it's just like that's the problem with
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: our community.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: A lot of times we don't have mentors. We figured
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: out as we go, you know what I mean.
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: That's why we make so many mistakes exactly because there's
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: no mentorship. They don't there's no blueprint to follow. So
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: it's like, Okay, I'm just gonna go out there.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: I think one of the things you like and what
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: you've done is like you've kind of the blueprint for
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: people from what you're the.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: Saying, like I remember watching the HBO Sports special and.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: I was like, wow, this guy literally created a farm
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: and went and played the seed to himself.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: I think that was dope. I was like one of
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: the best posts.
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: I was like, you said, make sure you're an expert
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: of what you're asking people to do, right, So if
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna hire you, trust it, I know what I'm doing.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: We'll talk about the Harrington group.
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: Yeah. Man, it's funny, bro like like you' said. Man, Like,
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: I don't really have like a financial background or any
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: of that. Like it was literally like I just took
• 17:34
  Speaker 6: my work ethic that I took from how I got
• 17:37
  Speaker 6: into the NBA and played sixteen years. Like you know
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: my background. I saw who was a freshman iceed to
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: really really. I never that my mom used to beat
• 17:47
  Speaker 6: me on the one all the time.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: That's hard. That's even as a freshman, I was hard.
• 17:53
  Speaker 6: I was the worst player on the team as a freshman,
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: and I probably was like the eighth best player as
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: a sophomore.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: He went from that to then the play like in
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: two years. But it was I lived in the gym.
• 18:04
  Speaker 6: It was work that they learned like and and thank
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: god I was able to get the results because it
• 18:09
  Speaker 6: showed me what all wor can do for you. You
• 18:10
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying, and what I've done is I
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: was just taking that same approach into the Cannibis centry.
• 18:15
  Speaker 6: So like you go back there, tell my office you
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: see it. I got a big plaque on my wall
• 18:18
  Speaker 6: and say, nobody with our workers. You know what I'm saying.
• 18:20
  Speaker 6: Like the reason why I played sixteen year was because
• 18:23
  Speaker 6: I swear every year because I remember my mindset as
• 18:26
  Speaker 6: a rookie. My mind said as a rookie was I
• 18:28
  Speaker 6: was looking at the older dudes and I'm like, I'm
• 18:30
  Speaker 6: taking hib getting that spot, like I gotta play. So
• 18:33
  Speaker 6: I always remember I was always in the back of
• 18:35
  Speaker 6: my mind as I got older in the league that
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: these rookies that's coming in and just trying to.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: Take my minute, you know what I'm saying. So and
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: I take that same thing with cannabis.
• 18:43
  Speaker 6: I'm like, yeah, Vayola may be popping or whatever, but
• 18:46
  Speaker 6: like I don't sleep, you know, I don't sleep any
• 18:48
  Speaker 6: better at like you know what I'm saying, Like, I'm
• 18:50
  Speaker 6: still constantly thinking there's another black company coming behind me
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: that's gonna try to claim the things that I've done it,
• 18:56
  Speaker 6: or either just regular companies, you know what I'm saying.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: So that's always my age. You know what I'm saying.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: I always can constantly do that.
• 19:02
  Speaker 6: But to answer a question like what they've done, and
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: I mean the lawmakers and stuff like that, because they
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: have so many.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: Different people influencing their decisions.
• 19:14
  Speaker 6: Because the issue that we have in cannabis right now
• 19:16
  Speaker 6: is that the people that are actually writing the laws
• 19:18
  Speaker 6: don't have any business acting.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: They're just politicians.
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: So they writing these laws and putting these taxes and
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: all these different things, and they're killing the industry. You
• 19:27
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying, What I think they should have
• 19:29
  Speaker 6: did it. They should have went to some of the
• 19:31
  Speaker 6: people that were successful in the black market and used them.
• 19:33
  Speaker 6: That's consulting, because there was a thriving industry until y'all
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: stepped in, You understand what I'm saying.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: So that's that piece. But why it's tough is this.
• 19:44
  Speaker 6: They're trying to monopolize the process, right And like what
• 19:46
  Speaker 6: you said, you know, our communities was you know, most
• 19:49
  Speaker 6: impacting on drugs, eighty five percent are all black men.
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: Drug arrests on cannabis related You know what I'm saying,
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: and we have no representation in the industry right now,
• 19:58
  Speaker 6: with me doing what I'm doing in a couple other people,
• 20:00
  Speaker 6: you represent one percent in the enagry. Like that's ridiculous,
• 20:03
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. And it's tough for me
• 20:06
  Speaker 6: to sit here and tell somebody like, go do this
• 20:10
  Speaker 6: to create ownership, because it's tough. It's like, you know,
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: you look in New Jersey, someplace that we're very familiar with,
• 20:15
  Speaker 6: or even New York. You know, some of the requirements
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: was like in New York, it was like we gotta
• 20:19
  Speaker 6: have like twenty twenty five years of experiencing farming or agriculture.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: I look, black person own land, not understand what I'm saying.
• 20:33
  Speaker 6: New Jersey was you know, you had to show fifteen
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: to twenty million dollars in a workable capital part of
• 20:40
  Speaker 6: your application process.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: You understand what I'm saying. So what black person can
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: do that?
• 20:44
  Speaker 6: I'm like, even I struggle getting people to put up
• 20:46
  Speaker 6: money to have twenty in the account. You undertand what
• 20:48
  Speaker 6: I'm saying, that's what all the resources I had. So
• 20:50
  Speaker 6: just imagine somebody off the block. And I'm not saying
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: this is discouragure what I'm just trying to give you
• 20:54
  Speaker 6: is just like what's going on, right, So how I
• 20:57
  Speaker 6: look at it is like, you know, one of the
• 20:58
  Speaker 6: things I want to do is I want to start
• 21:00
  Speaker 6: incubating or whatever for the for the black communities. Right.
• 21:04
  Speaker 6: So what I want to do is I want to
• 21:06
  Speaker 6: get licensed in every state and I want to build
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: facilities that are big enough that I can allow other
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: black entrepreneurs that want to get into the space of
• 21:13
  Speaker 6: an opportunity to come in perfect the crafts, whether they
• 21:17
  Speaker 6: want to make cbity, THAC waters, where they want to wait,
• 21:20
  Speaker 6: THAC mints, whatever it is. I want to give them
• 21:23
  Speaker 6: a platform and licenses allow them to be created and
• 21:26
  Speaker 6: create products.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: Right. That's one way that I feel like I can
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: include more black people, right. Yeah.
• 21:31
  Speaker 6: The other way is this and this is real because
• 21:34
  Speaker 6: my company right now, right, you know, I would like
• 21:36
  Speaker 6: to I wish I hired, I wish I had more
• 21:38
  Speaker 6: black employees, right.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: But I promise you when I put out these job opportunities.
• 21:44
  Speaker 6: Online through uh you know all those yeah, all that stuff,
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: they don't apply. It's nobody applying, you know what I'm saying.
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: So and I can't figure out what jobs, like what
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: jobs are, whether it's you know, whether it's working in
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: the front or in the grow being a grower, being
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: a packager. And this is this is gonna be my point.
• 22:08
  Speaker 6: You got to start somewhere. You got to put your
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: ego aside if you want to get into this industry.
• 22:13
  Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. I know so many people
• 22:15
  Speaker 6: bro I problem. So many people that have started off
• 22:18
  Speaker 6: as packagers that now own dispensaries.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: They're not black, you understand what I'm saying.
• 22:23
  Speaker 6: Like they went through that, They went through the whole process,
• 22:26
  Speaker 6: learn every part of the business, you know what I'm saying,
• 22:28
  Speaker 6: and then figure it out because at the end of
• 22:30
  Speaker 6: the day, what I will tell you is that if
• 22:32
  Speaker 6: you do through that, you're gonna be valued with somebody.
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
• 22:35
  Speaker 6: I wish I could run to somebody that say, I packaged,
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: I'll grow out this, that and the third, Like I'm.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: Hiring you a set.
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: That's all the experience I need because what because of
• 22:43
  Speaker 6: the way my company is kind of set up, you
• 22:46
  Speaker 6: wear multiple hats. You know what I'm saying, we kind
• 22:48
  Speaker 6: of eye attitude is like everybody do a little bit
• 22:50
  Speaker 6: of everything.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, I don't have no problem
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: going to clean the.
• 22:53
  Speaker 6: Bathroom dead ass, you know what I'm saying, Like, that's
• 22:56
  Speaker 6: just how I operate when they see me going. Everybody know,
• 22:59
  Speaker 6: it's not been anybody to going that to operate like that,
• 23:01
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. So, you know, so one
• 23:03
  Speaker 6: of the things is just I would just say, you know,
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: look at applying to get into the industry. Maybe you
• 23:08
  Speaker 6: can't get ownership right now out the gate, you know,
• 23:10
  Speaker 6: I would say that this industry is going to be.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: Like liquor, where liquor has over forty thousand brands. You
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. It's gonna be the same thing
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: in cannabis.
• 23:19
  Speaker 6: So maybe right now in twenty nineteen or twenty twenty,
• 23:22
  Speaker 6: you don't get your ownership and something, But twenty twenty one,
• 23:24
  Speaker 6: it's always going to be opportunity because it's just gonna
• 23:26
  Speaker 6: be just like the liquor industry, have craft beers or
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: have all these different things. So I would just tell,
• 23:31
  Speaker 6: you know, all the entrepreneurs or people that want to
• 23:34
  Speaker 6: try to figure out how to get in, it's just
• 23:36
  Speaker 6: go get a job, man, get a job in the space.
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: You know what, I'm saying, you guys are File Extracts
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: operates from four states, right, California, Oregon, Michigan, and Colorado.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: So when you say like people are applying to do jobs,
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: like the farming would be in Oregon.
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: Farm, it would be in Oregon. So like, you know,
• 23:52
  Speaker 6: so my farm is like where it's at. I don't
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: think a lot of black people there. Yeah, that's just
• 23:58
  Speaker 6: because of the jar Recraft location, you know what I mean.
• 24:01
  Speaker 6: But in Colorado, yes, California for sure, Michigan one thousand.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: Percent is that's your newest one missions on the It's
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: place or whatever.
• 24:10
  Speaker 6: So we opened up our retail in the next fifteen days,
• 24:13
  Speaker 6: so exit about that's our first retail operation. And it
• 24:16
  Speaker 6: goes back to what I was telling you, was like
• 24:18
  Speaker 6: I'm learning every part of the business. You know what
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: I'm saying. So I know all the cultivation, greenhouse, outdoor, indoor,
• 24:23
  Speaker 6: I know all the manufacturing methods.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. Now we're going to dive
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: into the retail part.
• 24:28
  Speaker 6: And you know and like and to my point that
• 24:30
  Speaker 6: I was just saying, like I wanted to do retail
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: five years ago, I wasn't ready.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, but I built up, built
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: up to the.
• 24:37
  Speaker 6: Point where now we're ready and now we're opening up
• 24:39
  Speaker 6: the spot, you know what I'm saying, and it's going.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: So how all right?
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: So as far as scaling the business right, because you
• 24:45
  Speaker 5: you started, I don't know exactly, like if you started
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: with a dispensard, like, what was what was the first
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: thing you actually started with.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: I was just I was a caregiverer.
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: So what that means is, you know, if we're all
• 24:55
  Speaker 6: patients in Colorado or whatever, you would give me your
• 24:58
  Speaker 6: paperwork and I would grow when you were from twelve
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: to sixteen dollars for you, right, And when we first started,
• 25:04
  Speaker 6: we only had forty likes and it was in a
• 25:07
  Speaker 6: twelve thousand square foot building and all of our patients
• 25:10
  Speaker 6: either had HIV or cancer or whatever.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: So we grew in them.
• 25:13
  Speaker 6: So we do you grow it, we will give them
• 25:16
  Speaker 6: a portion of it and the rest of them would
• 25:18
  Speaker 6: sell to the dispensers.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: So what's your business model?
• 25:20
  Speaker 5: As far as sale to thee we had a restaurant
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: on on and he actually was a great interview. And
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: the thing is everybody might not be in the restaurant business,
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: but in my personal opinion. Business is business, So no
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: matter what, the key principles of scaling a business can
• 25:34
  Speaker 5: you apply to anything, right, And obviously you've you've been able.
• 25:37
  Speaker 5: That's what one of the things I'm really impressed about
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: is that you've been able to scale your business in
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: a very short period of time.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: And like you said, like you didn't have a business background,
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: so a how were you able to do that?
• 25:47
  Speaker 5: And like what's your kind of business business model like
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: broad brains as far as like you know, looking at
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: opportunities scaling.
• 25:53
  Speaker 6: Like you know, yeah, So my biggest thing is, like
• 25:56
  Speaker 6: you know, my number one thing is to build a
• 25:58
  Speaker 6: good brand. You know what I'm saying. I feel like
• 26:00
  Speaker 6: once the brand is strong enough, you can take the
• 26:03
  Speaker 6: brand any you know what I'm saying. There's a couple
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: of examples of other brands that have sold to Canadian
• 26:08
  Speaker 6: LPs and different things like that that don't on any
• 26:10
  Speaker 6: of the supply chain. All they do is have a brand,
• 26:13
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. But what I'm trying to
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: do a vertically integrate my brand. It gives them more value,
• 26:18
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. What I've learned is that
• 26:20
  Speaker 6: you know, nobody is you know, like, ain't nobody gonna
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: treat your car the way you treat your partisans your car.
• 26:26
  Speaker 6: They getting they drop some. It ain't the same you're
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: getting it, you know what I'm saying. It's just that's
• 26:30
  Speaker 6: just life. That's just how I just realized that people
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: do things. So, you know, for us, the reason why
• 26:35
  Speaker 6: we get cultivation in every sea is because we have
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: a valuel away that we do things the way that
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: we grow the way the end product, you know what
• 26:43
  Speaker 6: I'm saying.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: So that's the reason why.
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: For me, why you know, we continue to go stay
• 26:48
  Speaker 6: by state and acquirity licenses so that every time someone
• 26:52
  Speaker 6: opens up a BODYO package, they get an experience. You
• 26:55
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying that we control the experience because
• 26:57
  Speaker 6: we control the you know, the supply chain.
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: So Harrington Group, right, it has three things under the umbrella.

  Speaker 2: I was like, huh.
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: And then when I kept reading, I'm like, oh, okay.
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: And then from there then you start getting more guys.
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: Steve Kerr right, I'm gonna start using it. And then
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: you had this meeting with David Stern that churns. That's
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: a game changer.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: It was a game changing man.
• 31:33
  Speaker 6: That that was crazy man, Like, I mean, I seen
• 31:36
  Speaker 6: him at this thing called a Milking Conference, which is
• 31:38
  Speaker 6: a conference they hold here in LA I think it's
• 31:40
  Speaker 6: like forty five hundred ticket just to come for three
• 31:43
  Speaker 6: days and just kind of learn about all different Industries
• 31:47
  Speaker 6: or whatever, and he was on He was on a
• 31:50
  Speaker 6: pay talking about the effect of esports on like the NBA,
• 31:56
  Speaker 6: NFL because the esports guys were saying like it's gonna
• 31:59
  Speaker 6: trump love sports, you know what I'm saying.
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: And he was on there and he was just talking,
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: you know, they was very witty, you know what I'm saying.
• 32:06
  Speaker 6: So he was up there talking circles around a lot
• 32:08
  Speaker 6: of people up there, him Robber Kraft was up there
• 32:11
  Speaker 6: that got from Univision or whatever. So after after they
• 32:13
  Speaker 6: got done, I just went up to him like, heaby,
• 32:15
  Speaker 6: what's up man? And uh, you know, his mind is crazy,
• 32:18
  Speaker 6: remembers everything, bro, Like you gotta think about. He's seen
• 32:21
  Speaker 6: over you know, two thousand players the least.
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: But when he sold me, its not like I was
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: Lebron or somebody. First thing, he said, how's your knee?
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: Wow?
• 32:29
  Speaker 5: My knie?
• 32:30
  Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. I never ever sat and
• 32:32
  Speaker 6: talked with him about it ever, you know what I'm saying.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: He just shocked like that. So we started talking.
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: I think that was my way of telling him like, yeah,
• 32:38
  Speaker 6: actually okay, I actually was caim blah blah blah blah
• 32:41
  Speaker 6: his face and I started telling him what I was doing,
• 32:44
  Speaker 6: and he was just saying, you know, we don't smoke
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: all the product. It's real funny about it. I was like, hey,
• 32:49
  Speaker 6: you know, you get a chance. I want to sit
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: and talk with you about a couple of things. And
• 32:52
  Speaker 6: it took me like seven months to set up my
• 32:54
  Speaker 6: first menion with whatever. But he's so busy. I had
• 32:58
  Speaker 6: like a thirty minute times like talk to him right
• 33:01
  Speaker 6: like the lady from that was running the Sacramento Kings
• 33:03
  Speaker 6: was meeting after and he was in there for an
• 33:05
  Speaker 6: hour and a half. It was that interested in everything
• 33:08
  Speaker 6: that I was telling, you know what I'm saying, and
• 33:09
  Speaker 6: he's like, let's have another meeting Madigan. And then the
• 33:12
  Speaker 6: third time I met with him, I just asked him
• 33:13
  Speaker 6: and said, you mind if I just like interview you
• 33:15
  Speaker 6: on TV talking about that, and he said yes, and
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: you know what I had that It was so funny
• 33:21
  Speaker 6: because you know, he's an attorney, so it's kind of
• 33:22
  Speaker 6: hard trying to like trick him right, and you know
• 33:25
  Speaker 6: he's very calculated. He's not gonna say now, you know mean,
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: So when I was going through all the questions with
• 33:30
  Speaker 6: Mavick Carter or whatever, is you know, interrupted and helped
• 33:33
  Speaker 6: me put that together. We was trying to figure out
• 33:35
  Speaker 6: ways to kind of walk him down the road to say,
• 33:38
  Speaker 6: like the leak should just considered Yeah, the bitshoes and
• 33:42
  Speaker 6: literally my second question, bro, he said that. He was
• 33:45
  Speaker 6: just like, yeah, I have to talk to you. I
• 33:46
  Speaker 6: think they really should re evaluate the policies and this,
• 33:49
  Speaker 6: that and there. So I'm looking at everybody off camera
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: like what else you want?
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
• 33:56
  Speaker 6: But now I was cool man, and a lot of
• 33:58
  Speaker 6: people always say how much ownership did you give them
• 34:01
  Speaker 6: in your company?
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: Gave him nothing, you know what I'm saying.
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: He believe that that conversation could change, Like the way
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: Lee's look at it now like that, I feel like
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: that's super imployant.
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: I think I think it's uphill you.
• 34:12
  Speaker 5: You kind of know, like, Okay, the tide is turning, right,
• 34:15
  Speaker 5: So anybody that is intelligent, it's a fight that's not
• 34:19
  Speaker 5: worth fighting, right, even if you're not.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: Pro marijuana, And you don't have to be pro marijuana
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: or eight or use it yourself, but.
• 34:26
  Speaker 5: It's really hard to be totally against it at this
• 34:30
  Speaker 5: point because it's a battle that eventually you're not gonna
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: win that back, right, So I think that when you
• 34:36
  Speaker 5: see David Sterning and you know the guys who go
• 34:38
  Speaker 5: there and tell that obviously intelligent people and they want
• 34:40
  Speaker 5: to be on the right side of history.
• 34:41
  Speaker 6: You gotta remember, man, I swear bro like you know,
• 34:44
  Speaker 6: it was so funny I first got done that. I
• 34:46
  Speaker 6: was so scared to tell you what I was doing, right,
• 34:48
  Speaker 6: just thinking of like how people do say yea. And
• 34:52
  Speaker 6: I mean since I was retired, I've been offered the
• 34:54
  Speaker 6: NBA jobs, don't coach, you know what I'm saying, I've
• 34:57
  Speaker 6: been offered TV jobs like nothing.
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying that they don't care, but it's like they're.
• 35:03
  Speaker 6: Starting to come around to realize and like all the
• 35:06
  Speaker 6: pharmaceutical stuff we're using, dog, like that's the real dangerous stuff.
• 35:11
  Speaker 6: Like we can sit here right now, came and smoke
• 35:15
  Speaker 6: for the next two weeks straight. I mean, back to back,
• 35:18
  Speaker 6: you edibles asleep. We gonna pass out, but I guarantee
• 35:22
  Speaker 6: you won't die. There's five pills. There's pills out here
• 35:26
  Speaker 6: in the world that they've given people that they give
• 35:28
  Speaker 6: a bottle of sixty and you could take five of
• 35:31
  Speaker 6: them and getting their hands on them, chot anything like that.
• 35:34
  Speaker 6: They take five in their death, So how do you
• 35:37
  Speaker 6: compare it to it?
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: Don't it makes sense? You know what I'm saying. And
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: I think that people are starting to really wake up, y'all.
• 35:42
  Speaker 6: We're not saying that, We're not saying that everybody should smoke,
• 35:45
  Speaker 6: We're not saying any of that.
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: Always saying is that it's an alternative way for people.
• 35:49
  Speaker 6: To medicate themselves without the highly addictive and the dangerous
• 35:53
  Speaker 6: from the suit and drugs that are being off.
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
• 35:55
  Speaker 6: You look at these commercials and it's like, you know,
• 35:58
  Speaker 6: people are skipping and the commercials like side of things, internal.
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: Beating, give it on the beach, and they're still skipping.
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: I'm like that, you know what I'm saying. So it's
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: just like, you know, my own things.
• 36:12
  Speaker 6: I just feel like, man, sometimes man, it's just like
• 36:14
  Speaker 6: commaisense is not always coming, you know. But you know
• 36:18
  Speaker 6: the reason why I like the platform that I have
• 36:21
  Speaker 6: is that, you know, when I go to these seminars
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: and it is these doctors up there talking about fidal commanding.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: Or is it this that?
• 36:26
  Speaker 6: And the third like you're talking to people that have
• 36:29
  Speaker 6: no idea what you gotta talk to you know what
• 36:31
  Speaker 6: I'm saying. You got talking to their language. And that's
• 36:33
  Speaker 6: what I've been able to do with other athletes and
• 36:35
  Speaker 6: other entertainers that are stepping out and being advocates. I
• 36:39
  Speaker 6: think that we are starting to humanize the plant in
• 36:41
  Speaker 6: the whole process in general.
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: That's that's dope, that's nope virus. And now we're gonna
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: go into all last.
• 36:45
  Speaker 5: Second and talking about the future of the marijuana industry
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: and company as well. All right, so now we're gonna
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: go into the future. But before we go into that,
• 36:52
  Speaker 5: because we like to paint the real picture of entrepreneurship.
• 36:55
  Speaker 5: I don't know if you watch like YouTube a lot,
• 36:57
  Speaker 5: but I do. And there's a lot of entrepreneur all
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: guys on YouTube, and they always they talking circles for
• 37:03
  Speaker 5: that you don't really know what they said, and it's
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: all motivational.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Like if you don't wake up in five ahead, you
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: know what I mean. But it's like, okay, but what
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: does that mean? You know what I'm saying. What the
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: good thing I like about you is that you actually
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: started a few businesses right at that.
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So reading your portfolio was like, you've had businesses
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: that haven't succeeded though. Right at the date you at
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: the restaurant in Miami and you try a hotel in
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: New York City, upstate, upstate.
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: That way too far. You were talking about it's important
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: for people to understand that every business is not gone. Ye.
• 37:39
  Speaker 6: No, I mean most successful business people would tell you
• 37:42
  Speaker 6: they took hell a l before they were successful, you
• 37:44
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying, Like, that's part of the process.
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: You just got to manage the loss. You understand what
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: I'm saying.
• 37:49
  Speaker 6: So you know, in the beginning, like I used to
• 37:52
  Speaker 6: be so like you could sell me on any idea,
• 37:55
  Speaker 6: any idea, you was passionate about it. I'm like, how
• 37:59
  Speaker 6: much shit we could do well? And I learned that
• 38:03
  Speaker 6: that's not what we operate, you know what I'm saying. So,
• 38:04
  Speaker 6: like the one operation was fully in the city. So
• 38:07
  Speaker 6: you know, Felipo on fifty ninth Street has been over
• 38:11
  Speaker 6: ten years, ten twelve. I think basket might put some
• 38:17
  Speaker 6: money up. I think you know what I'm saying. And
• 38:20
  Speaker 6: you know we in there every week.
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: It's cracking.
• 38:23
  Speaker 6: I'm like, in Miami, I gotta go ahead. What I
• 38:27
  Speaker 6: learned about Miami, Miami seasonal, that's true, saying. What I'm
• 38:31
  Speaker 6: saying people go down there during the winter. They don't
• 38:33
  Speaker 6: go down there during the summers. You understand what I'm saying.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: So I learned that. So now there's any Miami business
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: deals and it's food or all.
• 38:40
  Speaker 6: That kind of related or service I know now like
• 38:43
  Speaker 6: and now I know that about other places too, like
• 38:45
  Speaker 6: places it is a seasonal place.
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: You gotta know.
• 38:48
  Speaker 6: The hotel business. What happened with that I think was
• 38:52
  Speaker 6: more of just two thousand and eight happening is one
• 38:54
  Speaker 6: of the May investment. It's just everything that just crashed.
• 38:57
  Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. I think the concept was good.
• 38:59
  Speaker 6: I don't know how far upstate New York maybe, but
• 39:02
  Speaker 6: you know they had, like Jack Nicholson had signed going
• 39:04
  Speaker 6: to do the golf course. They had a hotel bed,
• 39:08
  Speaker 6: the hotel was the anchor, and then they were gonna
• 39:10
  Speaker 6: build homes around the golf course.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: So you know that that model has.
• 39:15
  Speaker 6: Worked a lot of places. You know what I'm saying is,
• 39:17
  Speaker 6: you know, I know a project right now growing up
• 39:19
  Speaker 6: in Vegas like that. You know that model has worked.
• 39:22
  Speaker 6: So I say that deal right there didn't come in fruition.
• 39:26
  Speaker 6: I think more just because of the time. You know
• 39:28
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying, I think the concept and everything was
• 39:30
  Speaker 6: actually right on. You know, Mariotte had just signed on
• 39:33
  Speaker 6: to manage the hotel, so you know, everything was coming
• 39:36
  Speaker 6: in place with that, but I took that out, you
• 39:39
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. And you know when I played
• 39:41
  Speaker 6: for the Knicks or right before when I was in
• 39:43
  Speaker 6: Golden State, I started the Protege, a sneaker line or
• 39:46
  Speaker 6: whatever that was going to be very successful, but I
• 39:49
  Speaker 6: had bad business partners, you know what I'm saying. So
• 39:51
  Speaker 6: that's when I started realizing I'm a bet on myself
• 39:54
  Speaker 6: and everything. So like a lot of times now, like
• 39:56
  Speaker 6: it's really tough for me to get to invest in
• 39:58
  Speaker 6: somebody else's idea. I got to fully understand it. Like
• 40:02
  Speaker 6: I mean, when I see you understand, I understand it
• 40:04
  Speaker 6: just like the person that's pitching it. And you know
• 40:06
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying, before I would actually make an investment.
• 40:09
  Speaker 6: And and I think that, you know, from taking all
• 40:12
  Speaker 6: those l's, I think that's what I learned. You know
• 40:14
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying is that you know, you can invest
• 40:16
  Speaker 6: in other people ideas or whatever, but you know, if
• 40:19
  Speaker 6: you're gonna make that investment, put.
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: Your heart own money into it.
• 40:21
  Speaker 6: You need to fully understand how you're gonna get your
• 40:23
  Speaker 6: money out, what all the risky involved, and what it's
• 40:26
  Speaker 6: gonna be the ROI, what's the true ROI, not just
• 40:28
  Speaker 6: something someone pitching. Because even in cannabis, I remember, like
• 40:34
  Speaker 6: someone pitching me, I'm in the business already. Like I'm
• 40:36
  Speaker 6: in it already. They came into my building in Colorado
• 40:40
  Speaker 6: and show me a facility they want to put up
• 40:41
  Speaker 6: in Nevada, and it was gonna make thirty million dollars
• 40:45
  Speaker 6: a year. And the one thing I can tell you
• 40:47
  Speaker 6: for sure, there's no businesses that you're starting a year
• 40:51
  Speaker 6: in cannabis.
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: It's just impossible, you know, because you got to remember.
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: And this is a gym for people to understand. It's like,
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: you know, when you're launching a new market.
• 40:58
  Speaker 6: It takes a while to get that cuts to my
• 41:00
  Speaker 6: acquisition because most people are going to the dispensary that
• 41:03
  Speaker 6: first time, and a lot of times those dispensaries aren't
• 41:05
  Speaker 6: gonna be carrying the fire fire either. So you're gonna
• 41:08
  Speaker 6: go in there, You're gonna spend sixty dollars for an
• 41:11
  Speaker 6: eighth smoke it, and remember your man got it on
• 41:14
  Speaker 6: the corner for twenty five, you know what I'm saying.
• 41:17
  Speaker 6: So it's gonna take you a while to realize that
• 41:20
  Speaker 6: your man stuff isn't tested, it's not as safe as.
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: What you actually smoke in the dispensary.
• 41:24
  Speaker 6: It takes people time to get you used to that
• 41:26
  Speaker 6: and realizing, like, this stuff out of this dispensary is
• 41:29
  Speaker 6: way safer for me and my family or my girl
• 41:32
  Speaker 6: or my own boy or whatever, you know what I'm saying.
• 41:34
  Speaker 6: And that's when people start going back to the dispensary
• 41:37
  Speaker 6: and realizing that smoking the other stuff is potentially dangerous,
• 41:41
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. So you know, they're sitting
• 41:43
  Speaker 6: there telling me, like we're gonna make all this money
• 41:45
  Speaker 6: in the year one of a market that's brand.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: New, or like it's impossible, you know what I'm saying.
• 41:50
  Speaker 6: And it's shown if you look at the market out there,
• 41:52
  Speaker 6: people still kind of struggling in the body market and
• 41:55
  Speaker 6: it's been three.
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: Years now, you know what I'm saying.
• 41:57
  Speaker 6: So that's just you know, you know, like I said,
• 42:00
  Speaker 6: you just got to really educate yourself when you investment,
• 42:03
  Speaker 6: and you know it's not easy, and you know a
• 42:06
  Speaker 6: lot of times you know, especially depending on the industry,
• 42:08
  Speaker 6: like cannabis is so new, a lot of people getting tripped.
• 42:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what I'm saying, because it's so crazy because
• 42:14
  Speaker 5: everybody's looking there like it's the gold rush.
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: Right you just go to La or Las Vegas and
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: open a dispens people believe are thinking like.
• 42:23
  Speaker 6: That, And it's not even that easy to open it, right,
• 42:27
  Speaker 6: Like you just can't go to any state and just
• 42:29
  Speaker 6: open up the dispension.
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: All these places right now, that's kind of that open
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: It's Oklahoma.
• 42:33
  Speaker 6: I would say that I know of right now that
• 42:35
  Speaker 6: it's pretty easy to go get a license and open
• 42:38
  Speaker 6: up you know what I'm saying. But a lot of
• 42:39
  Speaker 6: these markets, man, they're so regulated, and you know, the
• 42:43
  Speaker 6: markets that are smart to me, they make it somewhat
• 42:46
  Speaker 6: restricted just because you know that oversaturation, like a place
• 42:49
  Speaker 6: like you know, Washington and orel You know what I'm saying.
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: That's another thing I learned.
• 42:54
  Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying that you know, I'm not
• 42:55
  Speaker 6: really going to run and be so excited to run
• 42:57
  Speaker 6: into a state where it's unlimited licensing, you know what
• 43:01
  Speaker 6: I'm saying.
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: Where it's a place where it's undimit licenses. What I'm
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: gonna do is I'm.
• 43:04
  Speaker 6: Gonna go partner up waring those licenses producers come in,
• 43:08
  Speaker 6: give them my expertise, my SOPs, and just having to
• 43:11
  Speaker 6: feel of like ola job.
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: You know, I see what I'm saying.
• 43:13
  Speaker 6: It don't make sense for me to go spend all
• 43:15
  Speaker 6: the capex to go buy something to be competing, because
• 43:18
  Speaker 6: then it's just a race to the bubom.
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: You know. I use my example of like in Oregon.
• 43:22
  Speaker 6: In Oregon, when I went out there in twenty sixteen,
• 43:25
  Speaker 6: and outdoor pounds was being sold for any living too.
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: A Loanan nine hundred high end thirteen fourteen hundred.
• 43:33
  Speaker 6: By the time I harvested in twenty fourteen, the price
• 43:37
  Speaker 6: of pounds outdoor pounds was like three four hundred bucks.
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: But you know why because the market was oversaturated.
• 43:44
  Speaker 6: When I went out there in twenty sixteen, it was
• 43:45
  Speaker 6: only forty operators by the time I harvested it, and
• 43:49
  Speaker 6: the year later it was over four hundred producers. And
• 43:52
  Speaker 6: now you look at the market right now, they got
• 43:53
  Speaker 6: a million pounds of surplus in Oregon, you know what
• 43:56
  Speaker 6: I'm saying. So so these are the some of the
• 43:58
  Speaker 6: things people gotta learn. You just realizing, you know, and
• 44:02
  Speaker 6: you know, I gotta do a better job because I
• 44:03
  Speaker 6: wanted I want to get more of this access and
• 44:05
  Speaker 6: this and now even access with this information to other
• 44:10
  Speaker 6: entrepreneurs that's trying to figure it out. You know what
• 44:12
  Speaker 6: I'm saying, because these are like very valuable things that
• 44:14
  Speaker 6: they should know. It kind of help them instill in
• 44:17
  Speaker 6: the right direction so that they don't lose.
• 44:19
  Speaker 5: Not that's dope, and that was the dope when you
• 44:21
  Speaker 5: do that platform that you're speaking up too, because like
• 44:23
  Speaker 5: I said, there's so many I'm sure people hit you
• 44:25
  Speaker 5: up all the time, but there's so many people that
• 44:27
  Speaker 5: want to get involved in it, right, and it's like
• 44:30
  Speaker 5: it's not easy a and you know it's it's pitfall
• 44:33
  Speaker 5: for any other business. So you know, I think that
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: the more, like you said, the more you the more
• 44:38
  Speaker 5: you learn, right, you're gonna educate yourself.
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: And it also is important what you said before as
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: far as to say, Okay, a.
• 44:43
  Speaker 5: Lot of time people just want to come in and
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: open the dispense, Like nah, just work your way up,
• 44:47
  Speaker 5: like it takes time.
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: You know, you don't have to.
• 44:49
  Speaker 5: You're not gonna be over tomorrow. I think everybody's gonna
• 44:51
  Speaker 5: rush like I need to do this right now before
• 44:53
  Speaker 5: this blows up. I just wait, Like two years isn't
• 44:56
  Speaker 5: gonna kill it.
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: I said, you're right because you know, like know, and
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: I feel that pressure sometime.
• 45:02
  Speaker 6: There's a business owner too where you know, you see
• 45:04
  Speaker 6: all this consolidation happening around me, and it's like, damn man,
• 45:07
  Speaker 6: they got access to Marnie million. And I'm still trying,
• 45:11
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. But at the end of
• 45:12
  Speaker 6: the day, you know what I'm saying, I think that,
• 45:14
  Speaker 6: you know, being a little patient and I'm seeing move
• 45:17
  Speaker 6: too slow, be a little patient cause I'm at the table.
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: You know, that's all you can ask, is I'm a ask.
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: All I need is an opportunity.
• 45:23
  Speaker 6: So I'm at the tape. That's what am I gonna do?
• 45:25
  Speaker 6: What am I gonna do with this opportunity? And you know,
• 45:28
  Speaker 6: I feel like, you know, sticking to you to what
• 45:29
  Speaker 6: I'm doing and just building an unbelievable brand that everybody knows,
• 45:34
  Speaker 6: like I said, every time they pick up a package,
• 45:36
  Speaker 6: they have a great experience.
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: I think I'll be all right, you know what I'm saying.
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: I think I could be okay.
• 45:40
  Speaker 9: Yeah, So I read you know, you guys evaluation over
• 45:45
  Speaker 9: one hundred million, but you said billion's not off the question,
• 45:47
  Speaker 9: So you got what's the next market that you guys
• 45:50
  Speaker 9: are trying to tap it?
• 45:51
  Speaker 6: So you know I'm being honest, man, like, I never really,
• 45:54
  Speaker 6: I never came into this thing with a dollar mind
• 45:57
  Speaker 6: a dollar in mind.
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: You know I'm saying.
• 45:59
  Speaker 6: It was never about I'm gonna make a million a
• 46:01
  Speaker 6: billion dollars. You know a lot of times when I
• 46:03
  Speaker 6: do interviews, they kind of woke me down that road.
• 46:05
  Speaker 6: I fall for it every time. But one I think
• 46:09
  Speaker 6: that what I'm creating will be worth multi billion dollars,
• 46:14
  Speaker 6: not just one whatever.
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: One is too small, right.
• 46:17
  Speaker 6: But the reason why I think that is because the
• 46:20
  Speaker 6: good and how many people we're gonna help is the
• 46:22
  Speaker 6: reason why you're gonna have that kind of evaluation, as
• 46:25
  Speaker 6: you know, like with I, yo, like, I'm trying to
• 46:27
  Speaker 6: make this brand and brand of the people, you know
• 46:29
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying. And I got a couple of different
• 46:31
  Speaker 6: ideas of trying to figure out just how to get
• 46:33
  Speaker 6: regular people involved and investing in BODYO let them take ownership,
• 46:37
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying.
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: I think that's the kids like adding you know, adding customers.
• 46:42
  Speaker 6: Feel like they own the brand, you know what I'm saying,
• 46:44
  Speaker 6: Like like I always worference the Puffins sarat You know
• 46:47
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying. Puffers created the environment with Sarac where
• 46:51
  Speaker 6: people feel like they are part of that lifestyle. Right,
• 46:55
  Speaker 6: It's like you pick up that bottle like you win
• 46:56
  Speaker 6: in there looking got a suit like that out, you
• 47:03
  Speaker 6: know what I mean. So I learned that from him,
• 47:06
  Speaker 6: but I saw that, you know what I'm saying, And
• 47:08
  Speaker 6: you know, I think that he was able to do
• 47:10
  Speaker 6: that because he's very authentic in his message and he
• 47:13
  Speaker 6: was consistent, you know what I'm saying, And that's what
• 47:16
  Speaker 6: you know, That's what I'm working on. And like I said,
• 47:18
  Speaker 6: you know, with this incubator program, different things like that,
• 47:21
  Speaker 6: I think we're gonna be that brand and everybody's gonna
• 47:23
  Speaker 6: want to support because they're gonna be at a take
• 47:25
  Speaker 6: over the ship.
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: Then let me ask before we wrap it up. I
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: just had a question.
• 47:28
  Speaker 5: They just passed the Safe according and passed the past
• 47:31
  Speaker 5: the person that Safe Thinking Act. So if anybody coind
• 47:35
  Speaker 5: of familiar the it still is a major problem because
• 47:39
  Speaker 5: marijuana is not legal on the federal level.
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: Even though it's legal, it's on sustain levels.
• 47:43
  Speaker 5: Right, So a lot of things, most things don't really
• 47:45
  Speaker 5: want to do business with marijuana company because it's a
• 47:48
  Speaker 5: great line they can get in trouble from the FETs.
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 47:51
  Speaker 5: How have you dealt with that as far as like
• 47:54
  Speaker 5: and what do you think the future? How do you
• 47:55
  Speaker 5: foresee the future in that, because that plays a major
• 47:58
  Speaker 5: part in my opinion because once the thanks.
• 47:59
  Speaker 6: Legal, that's kind of like you know, right that people
• 48:02
  Speaker 6: can get a loans potentially get into the space, but
• 48:06
  Speaker 6: not black people once again, because you know, we got
• 48:08
  Speaker 6: student loans and why it's gonna be tough or whatever.
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: But you know, when I first started, I had no banking.
• 48:14
  Speaker 6: Obviously, credit unions have come around, so every state I
• 48:19
  Speaker 6: bank with the credit union and then there's also a
• 48:21
  Speaker 6: third party company that I hope with also made pay
• 48:25
  Speaker 6: quick that they're pretty much like the middle man between
• 48:29
  Speaker 6: the producers and the bank, and they have a whole
• 48:33
  Speaker 6: you know, due diligence and a process that you know,
• 48:36
  Speaker 6: the banks, the credit unions are.
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: Comfortable with being able to bank. But you know the
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: banking is smart, like the credit unions, they making a
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: lot of money.
• 48:45
  Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying they charging twenty five hundred
• 48:47
  Speaker 6: dollars a month just to hold the bank account. You
• 48:50
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying it let alone the fees on
• 48:52
  Speaker 6: all the money that actually comes in. So banks realize
• 48:55
  Speaker 6: it's a billion dollar opportunity for them too.
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: But it's just that the federal government as it ends,
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, that they could Yeah, that's dope, man.
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: Now we want anything else you want to talk about
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: you now, we want to thank you for coming in.
• 49:10
  Speaker 5: Also before we wrap it up, it's important, I think
• 49:12
  Speaker 5: for people with aid to follow that passion right because you,
• 49:14
  Speaker 5: like you said, you're you're passionate about this.
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: It's not just about the money. It's not even about
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: the money.
• 49:20
  Speaker 5: It's to help people, right, And I think that's one
• 49:23
  Speaker 5: of the biggest mistakes that people and even we've made
• 49:25
  Speaker 5: that mistakes in the Bath with the other things that
• 49:27
  Speaker 5: we were successful now with the podcast because we actually
• 49:30
  Speaker 5: like doing it.
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: We're passionate, but but we've done.
• 49:32
  Speaker 5: Stuff in the Bath well honestly just different money, and
• 49:35
  Speaker 5: it didn't work.
• 49:35
  Speaker 6: It never.
• 49:39
  Speaker 5: It's hard to wake up everyone and do something if
• 49:42
  Speaker 5: you don't really care about what you're doing, right, So
• 49:43
  Speaker 5: I think that that's encouraging. And then also it's very
• 49:46
  Speaker 5: important first impressions and work act it too, So I
• 49:50
  Speaker 5: would be talking off camera.

  Speaker 2: So when I first met Al, this was.
• 50:04
  Speaker 5: Years ago, and he probably doesn't remember, but one thing
• 50:07
  Speaker 5: I always remember because he was in IMG training. He
• 50:09
  Speaker 5: was a professional, so I everybody's not familiar. IMG is
• 50:11
  Speaker 5: one of the top prep schools in the country. Actually

  Speaker 5: He's one of the pros that was working out, and
• 50:26
  Speaker 5: we used to run pick up games every once in
• 50:28
  Speaker 5: a while. So I can't say I had a lot

• 50:36
  Speaker 2: He's different. I've never getting them stories. Jamison. He's the
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: first person. So I missed my school box one day, right,
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: somebody He's like, what's to school here?
• 50:50
  Speaker 6: You wrong?
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: He had a drop top lesus and he had the
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: air conditioner on full blast. Well he had the air conditionings.

  Speaker 2: We got to the top then because it's cold, he's
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: gotten colder.

• 51:02
  Speaker 5: a footballing air conditioning in the drop.

  Speaker 6: like he's sweat at the dropping like yeah, like dropping
• 51:14
  Speaker 6: hat bro So Like he was the type dude where
• 51:16
  Speaker 6: we used to work out.
