SPEAKER_01: Now your technology infinity, huh?
3:31
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so how do you spell that?
3:34

3:44
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, okay.
3:44
SPEAKER_01: I'm I'm I'm not gonna judge.
3:46
SPEAKER_00: I'll let it I'll you'll let it soak in.
3:48
SPEAKER_00: You'll and you'll think of some.
3:50
SPEAKER_00: You'll think of some because it's SS part.
3:52
SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
3:53
SPEAKER_00: Like I'm starting to think like now other people are noticing it, and it's and it seems a little, it's not it's not our brand, it's off brand for us.
4:00
SPEAKER_00: No, we doesn't matter that our names are Steve and Satchel.
4:05
SPEAKER_00: That doesn't matter to the podcast.
4:08
SPEAKER_00: What matters, and it but but the the eight minutes is important.
4:13
SPEAKER_00: There's the beep.
4:15
SPEAKER_01: What about if we said uh my suggestion early on was just put a tiny little N in between the two S's, just a small N.
4:25
unknown: S.
4:26
SPEAKER_00: Oh S88?
4:30
SPEAKER_01: You said the S and S don't count.
4:32
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, but that just now you got a SNS88.
4:37
SPEAKER_00: It's like it all right, I'll think about it.
4:39
SPEAKER_01: Or or maybe you do it, see you or you do a design that has I like negative space in in in graphics, negative space.
4:48
SPEAKER_01: So in between the S's, you put a negative and sign somehow, or you put an AND, the little ampersand, I think that's how what you how you call it.
4:58
SPEAKER_01: You just put a little ampersand, you know, if you just on the because we say a lot of times SNS88, like we don't always say SS88, but if you put just a little ampersand in the logo, so it just you you weren't seeing it as SS, that would that would change.
5:20
SPEAKER_01: That would that would be helpful.
5:21
SPEAKER_00: But do you think it's really necessary the S and S part?
5:24
SPEAKER_01: You you brought it up.
5:27
SPEAKER_00: I did.
5:29
SPEAKER_00: I'm trying to get rid of it.
5:31
SPEAKER_00: I I think you'd name you named it.
5:34
SPEAKER_01: No, I know it together.
5:36
SPEAKER_01: We named it together.
5:37
SPEAKER_01: I didn't name it SS88.
5:39
SPEAKER_00: I you said SS because you came up with the eight minutes and and you the SS and the eight minutes and the 8 a.m.
5:46
SPEAKER_01: You came up with all that.
5:47
SPEAKER_01: That was a long, long, long, long time ago.
5:50
SPEAKER_01: And I'm not sure we remember how this started.
5:53
SPEAKER_00: All right.
5:53
SPEAKER_00: Can we get rid of the SS?
5:56
SPEAKER_00: Well why are we complicating the S?
6:00
SPEAKER_00: Why complicate it to make it S?
6:02
SPEAKER_00: Just well, but maybe What's wrong with 88 Infinity?
6:06
SPEAKER_01: But what about what about uh what if just because a couple people sit have an issue, like it's okay.
6:13
SPEAKER_01: We can explain it doesn't mean that, can't we?
6:15
SPEAKER_01: Okay at this point now that we've established it.
6:18
SPEAKER_00: But we're all we we can also we're also um still in the stages where we could just change the name.
6:24
SPEAKER_01: We could we could we could also just change the design of it so it doesn't say yeah S.
6:30
SPEAKER_01: Why don't you try a couple of those?
6:31
SPEAKER_01: Because that's easy, because you just change the logo, and then next time somebody logs on or whatever, then the logo will be a little different and have a little ampersand in the middle, and maybe people are like okay, now it doesn't.
6:42
SPEAKER_01: Now it now you're not now you're not thinking.
6:46
SPEAKER_00: You're not as Nazi, Nazi not as Germany, yeah.
6:49
SPEAKER_00: Not as Nazi Germany.
6:51
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
6:51
SPEAKER_00: Did you what are you doing?
6:53
SPEAKER_01: What's going on?
6:53
SPEAKER_01: Do you know the history of the Nazi symbol?
6:56
SPEAKER_00: Uh the Schwa sticker?
6:58
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
6:59
SPEAKER_01: Do you know the history of that?
7:01
SPEAKER_01: I I was in Nepal and you saw that everywhere.
7:04
SPEAKER_01: I was like, why am I looking at the Nazi symbol everywhere?
7:06
SPEAKER_01: And they said, no, it's not the Nazi symbol.
7:08
SPEAKER_01: The Nazis stole it from us.
7:10
SPEAKER_01: It's an Indian, I guess.
7:16
SPEAKER_01: Um flipped it, you flip it and they flipped it.
7:19
SPEAKER_01: So if it's the other way, it means like peace and harmony and um, you know, all good things in the in the universe.
7:32
SPEAKER_01: And then the Nazis flipped it.
7:34
SPEAKER_01: So they didn't invent that.
7:35
SPEAKER_01: It comes from, or at least I saw it in Nepal.
7:38
SPEAKER_01: Like we we were tearing down a wall and it was on every single brick that came down.
7:46
SPEAKER_01: I'm like, why are there Nazi symbols on this brick?
7:48
SPEAKER_01: And they're like, It's not Nazi, it's the opposite.
7:52
SPEAKER_01: Little history lesson for you.
7:54
SPEAKER_01: Okay.
