- 0:00Speaker 1: Hey friends, welcome. After Show podcast is on. It is
- 0:02Speaker 1: a Wednesday. It is January fourteenth, not the thirteenth, as
- 0:06Speaker 1: Billy said on the show today, it's the fourteenth, and
- 0:09Speaker 1: this is gonna be a special one first time ever
- 0:12Speaker 1: on the after Show. I have a guest that I
- 0:14Speaker 1: just pulled in here, and that would be Max done
- 0:17Speaker 1: of In, Lisa's son. What up, dude, what's up? Justin?
- 0:20Speaker 1: I'm doing good. Thank you for joining.
- 0:22Speaker 2: Of course.
- 0:22Speaker 1: So you were on the show a couple of minutes ago,
- 0:24Speaker 1: and then you know, I don't know what you have
- 0:26Speaker 1: planned you have to go anywhere or anything or.
- 0:28Speaker 2: I'm good, I'm gonna break. I have nothing going on.
- 0:30Speaker 1: Yeah, so I want to continue the fitness conversation. Yeah,
- 0:33Speaker 1: as you can tell, I'm a little bit obsessed. Which
- 0:36Speaker 1: is funny because we did that segment before you came
- 0:38Speaker 1: in about traits that we don't like about each other
- 0:42Speaker 1: or ourselves, and that was mine, is that I'm so
- 0:45Speaker 1: obsessive about things, and fitness and exercise is something I'm
- 0:50Speaker 1: truly truly obsessed with. If you couldn't tell, I can tell.
- 0:53Speaker 1: But it's a good thing.
- 0:54Speaker 2: You can never truly exceed it if you're not obsessed
- 0:56Speaker 2: with it, right.
- 0:57Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So it started because Lisa, call your mom,
- 1:00Speaker 1: and you called me a couple of weeks ago, and
- 1:03Speaker 1: you know, told me that you were getting into fitness,
- 1:05Speaker 1: tanting to work out, you wanted to put on some
- 1:06Speaker 1: muscle and ask my advice, and I told you a
- 1:08Speaker 1: couple of things to do. But inside, you have to
- 1:12Speaker 1: understand I was so excited because how old are you?
- 1:16Speaker 2: Eightem?
- 1:17Speaker 1: Okay, So I didn't step foot into a gym until
- 1:20Speaker 1: I was thirty. Yeah. So I never exercised, and I
- 1:24Speaker 1: never knew anybody that exercised. I never had anybody to
- 1:26Speaker 1: push me. And one of the biggest regrets I have,
- 1:29Speaker 1: not really a regret, but when I look back at
- 1:31Speaker 1: my life and things that I wish I had done differently,
- 1:33Speaker 1: it was join a gym. It was like learning about
- 1:35Speaker 1: exercise and working out because if I did, imagine what
- 1:38Speaker 1: I'd look like now. And so that's why it warms
- 1:40Speaker 1: my heart because I'm like, if you do it now
- 1:42Speaker 1: and you're consistent, you're gonna it's gonna be great. Like
- 1:45Speaker 1: you're gonna get in shape, You're gonna live a much
- 1:47Speaker 1: not a better life, but maybe a more fulfilling life,
- 1:49Speaker 1: I don't know, and.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Make you feel better. You do look great. You pull
- 1:51Speaker 2: your pants down for me.
- 1:52Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, Well I am proud of the leg development.
- 1:56Speaker 1: You know. It's dude, it's not easy to get legs,
- 1:59Speaker 1: not at all. It isn't. I mean half your friends
- 2:01Speaker 1: skip legs, you told me. Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, So
- 2:05Speaker 1: let's get right into it. So how long have you
- 2:07Speaker 1: been working out for?
- 2:08Speaker 2: Okay, So I've been going to the gym. And when
- 2:10Speaker 2: I say go to the gym, like once or twice
- 2:12Speaker 2: a week, not that committed to it since my sophomore year.
- 2:15Speaker 1: So weight tan cardio or just cardio.
- 2:17Speaker 2: Most of my cardio has been through tennis, maybe some
- 2:20Speaker 2: occasional runs once a week maybe, and then the rest
- 2:22Speaker 2: is weightlifting. But I've never really pushed myself with the gym.
- 2:25Speaker 2: I'm so scared to max out.
- 2:27Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, no, I get that. I get that.
- 2:29Speaker 1: But you can also you don't have to max out
- 2:31Speaker 1: to build muscle. You can also, you know, lift slower.
- 2:34Speaker 1: There's a thing called time under tension, meaning like if
- 2:37Speaker 1: you do a bicep curl or something you can do,
- 2:39Speaker 1: you can lift the weight up and you can count
- 2:41Speaker 1: maybe four seconds on the way down. Okay, that's a
- 2:44Speaker 1: trick that people, you especially as they get older, where
- 2:46Speaker 1: their bodies are kind of beat up, you know, and
- 2:48Speaker 1: they have things like tendonitis, they can slow down the
- 2:50Speaker 1: reps and it's a trick to not go so heavy.
- 2:53Speaker 1: You don't really need to go that heavy. Okay, So
- 2:56Speaker 1: you were going once or twice a week, and then
- 2:58Speaker 1: when did the switch happen where you wanted to like,
- 3:00Speaker 1: did something specific happen? Yeah?
- 3:03Speaker 2: Actually, so when I was in Mexico with my family,
- 3:05Speaker 2: my uncle was a Navy doctor for thirty years. Not
- 3:09Speaker 2: Uncle Mark, No, Uncle Miguel, who lives in California. Mark
- 3:12Speaker 2: is not in the Navy, not at all, not at all,
- 3:15Speaker 2: maybe the opposite of the Navy. Yeah, but he was
- 3:17Speaker 2: kind of not shamming me, but pushing me. Hey, you're
- 3:19Speaker 2: eighteen years old. My uncle's fifty something and he's going
- 3:22Speaker 2: to gym almost every day. He's getting buff and fit,
- 3:25Speaker 2: and so he was kind of my inspiration. He was
- 3:27Speaker 2: pushing me, kind of teasing me. I'm like, okay, I
- 3:29Speaker 2: got to beat this old man. I can't not be
- 3:31Speaker 2: buffing eighteen years old and this guy's beating me and
- 3:33Speaker 2: he's fifty three.
- 3:34Speaker 1: I love your uncle Miguel. I've never met him, but
- 3:36Speaker 1: I love him. But I love him. So he put
- 3:38Speaker 1: the bug inside of you. Yeah.
- 3:40Speaker 2: And also I met this trainer at the gym at
- 3:41Speaker 2: hotel in Mexico. Who I mean, this guy was buff
- 3:45Speaker 2: and he had a similar story to you. He was
- 3:46Speaker 2: two hundred and eighty pounds. Yeah, and then he lost
- 3:49Speaker 2: it all, had no extra skin because he worked out
- 3:51Speaker 2: so much and with really good technique, and so he
- 3:53Speaker 2: was kind of telling me how to approach everything. Put
- 3:56Speaker 2: the protein to eat, the similar advice to what you
- 3:58Speaker 2: gave me, and all that, so you could be trainer.
- 4:00Speaker 2: You gave the same advice as this personal trainer from Atlanta,
- 4:03Speaker 2: Georgia gave me.
- 4:04Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, you know what, if it all goes to
- 4:05Speaker 1: shit radio, maybe I'll do that push people. I mean,
- 4:08Speaker 1: I know what it's like to be like obese, out
- 4:10Speaker 1: of overweight, not loving myself. But I also know what
- 4:14Speaker 1: it's like to start at the gym and not really
- 4:15Speaker 1: know what I'm doing and learning, you know, And I've
- 4:18Speaker 1: spent the last several years learning all of this stuff
- 4:20Speaker 1: and applying it. So it's a couple of things that
- 4:23Speaker 1: I told you one is you could hire a trainer,
- 4:25Speaker 1: or if there are people at your gym where you
- 4:28Speaker 1: work out with or near, you could ask them for advice.
- 4:31Speaker 1: Don't be afraid to ask people for help. If you
- 4:32Speaker 1: see someone doing an exercise, you don't know what it is,
- 4:34Speaker 1: way till they're down with the set, and then walk over,
- 4:36Speaker 1: like come out of your comfort zone and be like, hey,
- 4:38Speaker 1: I notice you're doing that, Like, you know, could you
- 4:40Speaker 1: help me with that? On the form, people like to
- 4:42Speaker 1: help others in the gym. That's what I found. The
- 4:44Speaker 1: other thing is, you know, watch YouTube videos, you know,
- 4:47Speaker 1: like go on there, watch some J Cutler videos or
- 4:50Speaker 1: you know, any body builder or fitness person and they'll
- 4:53Speaker 1: kind of walk you through what to do. That's another
- 4:55Speaker 1: good tip. Yeah, and you got to eat food. You
- 4:59Speaker 1: got to eat food. Yeah. So you weigh one hundred
- 5:01Speaker 1: and forty eight pounds.
- 5:02Speaker 2: That's what I was weighing at the doctor yesterday.
- 5:03Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, okay, So yeah, you're gonna have to eat
- 5:06Speaker 1: a lot Okay, a lot of protein, but a lot
- 5:09Speaker 1: of calories in general is gonna what's gonna get you there?
- 5:12Speaker 2: I can eat, I can eat dessert. Still, I think
- 5:14Speaker 2: you so once.
- 5:15Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, not no, I mean once a day. I
- 5:17Speaker 1: don't know. Well, look at this. This what's called a
- 5:21Speaker 1: clean bulk or a dirty bulk, right, clean bulk obviously
- 5:24Speaker 1: is all clean food. Dirty bulk is like just shit
- 5:27Speaker 1: food just to get calories in, which for you, I
- 5:30Speaker 1: wouldn't recommend a dirty bulk, but someone like you, I
- 5:33Speaker 1: would recommend a few cheat males a week. Cheat male
- 5:36Speaker 1: meaning cheeseburger and fries, pizza, Throw those in to get
- 5:40Speaker 1: the extra calories in. Because I can tell you know
- 5:42Speaker 1: you're on the thinner side, that you have a fast metabolism,
- 5:45Speaker 1: so I'm not worried about you really putting on too
- 5:46Speaker 1: much body fat, but protein lifting, some cardio. You do tennis, right,
- 5:52Speaker 1: I do? Yeah? Haven't you been playing tennis a long time.
- 5:55Speaker 2: Long time since I was five years old?
- 5:57Speaker 1: Golf too?
- 5:57Speaker 2: Or no, I mean not not right now? It's the wind,
- 6:00Speaker 2: not competitively.
- 6:01Speaker 1: Now, your brother Riley is the golfer. Does he play tennis? No,
- 6:05Speaker 1: not at all. Okay, So you've done tennis throughout school
- 6:08Speaker 1: and everything. So his thing is golf, yours is tennis
- 6:10Speaker 1: base basically, yeah, okay, he'll be better at golf than
- 6:13Speaker 1: I or was the tennis. But yeah, he had that
- 6:14Speaker 1: kid has a knack. He's going to act for it, right,
- 6:17Speaker 1: he's great. I'm not into golf at all. I literally
- 6:19Speaker 1: know nothing about it. So he really is nasty right
- 6:23Speaker 1: for his age, for his age, Yeah, Like do you
- 6:26Speaker 1: watch him play him? Like Jesus, I play with.
- 6:28Speaker 2: Him all the time on vacation especially. Yeah, he up
- 6:30Speaker 2: drives me really.
- 6:31Speaker 1: Yeah. He can hit it further, Yeah.
- 6:33Speaker 2: By probably ten of fifteen yards. His form is so perfect.
- 6:37Speaker 2: He takes it back the perfect way and then comes
- 6:38Speaker 2: down with the perfect swing speed.
- 6:40Speaker 1: Do you think that Riley is eventually going to be
- 6:43Speaker 1: a professional. Do you think he's a at one level? Oh?
- 6:45Speaker 1: He doesn't.
- 6:46Speaker 2: Well, could he become He could play maybe one of
- 6:49Speaker 2: the Tier two tours, But he doesn't want to do that.
- 6:51Speaker 1: He doesn't What does he want to do?
- 6:52Speaker 2: College golf and try to get a scholarship somewhere great,
- 6:55Speaker 2: have one of those big golf schools that are greatest,
- 6:58Speaker 2: great at golf, and then do whatever.
- 7:00Speaker 1: What's the golf school? What would be like?
- 7:01Speaker 2: Okay, well, the dream golf school for anybody. Stanford. Oh,
- 7:05Speaker 2: it's just they have the best golf program in the country.
- 7:08Speaker 2: You're one of the best, best school in the country. Yeah,
- 7:10Speaker 2: arguably that's the dream. He that's that's a reach for anybody. Yeah,
- 7:14Speaker 2: but you know, Clemson, Indiana, Michigan, if he's good enough,
- 7:18Speaker 2: those big schools, I think he'd loved those. Notre Dame.
- 7:21Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I love about your family. What I
- 7:24Speaker 1: love that, like with my kids, My son's in baseball
- 7:27Speaker 1: and everything. And I see with you and your brother
- 7:29Speaker 1: and your parents and you know, getting you in sports
- 7:32Speaker 1: early on, right, and really pushing you guys to stick
- 7:35Speaker 1: with it and do good in school. And I don't know,
- 7:37Speaker 1: I just feel like that's such an important thing to
- 7:40Speaker 1: do for your children. I mean, not all kids are
- 7:42Speaker 1: going to be into sports, but I'm sure. Let me
- 7:44Speaker 1: ask you this, you've been playing sports your whole life.
- 7:47Speaker 1: Do you have a lot of the same friends from
- 7:49Speaker 1: when you were younger that you met in sports that
- 7:51Speaker 1: are still your friends?
- 7:51Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean we kind of grew up together,
- 7:53Speaker 2: that's what I mean, camp together, clinics together, dur in
- 7:56Speaker 2: the week.
- 7:56Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, oh yeah. And there was your mom too
- 7:59Speaker 1: and around bringing you here, bringing you there kind of mom.
- 8:03Speaker 1: And I think didn't she carry Riley's clubs a bag
- 8:06Speaker 1: before on the course. She told me that before too,
- 8:09Speaker 1: So yeah, all right, so now you are here on break,
- 8:12Speaker 1: but you're going back to school at Brown yep next tuesday,
- 8:15Speaker 1: Next Tuesday. How's that? Going school?
- 8:17Speaker 2: School has been great?
- 8:18Speaker 1: Besides obviously the tragedy that happens.
- 8:20Speaker 2: Besides that, I mean, obviously it's a step up academically
- 8:23Speaker 2: from high school. I expected that you work a lot,
- 8:26Speaker 2: but it's kind of work hard, play.
- 8:27Speaker 1: Hard, a lot of homework. Yeah, what are you studying.
- 8:30Speaker 2: I'm doing a double major in applied math, economics and
- 8:33Speaker 2: climate physics.
- 8:34Speaker 1: Okay, so translate that. What the fuck do you want
- 8:37Speaker 1: to do? So?
- 8:37Speaker 2: Applied math econright, is kind of the finance path you
- 8:39Speaker 2: do that if you want to go in the finance,
- 8:40Speaker 2: you're recruit for high finance roles, investment banking, in private equity,
- 8:43Speaker 2: and then the climate side of things. I've always been
- 8:45Speaker 2: in weather. If you're listening to this, you probably know
- 8:47Speaker 2: that if you've been listening.
- 8:48Speaker 1: For a lot. Didn't you intern at Channel seven? Yeah?
- 8:51Speaker 2: I shadowed Germany Ryder there for a day and then
- 8:53Speaker 2: I worked at the weather observatory at Blue Hill. Okay, yeah,
- 8:57Speaker 2: so just kind of continuing that at some point maybe
- 9:00Speaker 2: integrate those two things. So the climate side and the
- 9:02Speaker 2: finance side, it's tough to have that integrated role at first.
- 9:05Speaker 2: You kind of have to start in pure finance and
- 9:07Speaker 2: maybe naked opportunities to go in.
- 9:09Speaker 1: Like what would be a job that would combine both
- 9:12Speaker 1: of those.
- 9:12Speaker 2: Sure, well you can do. There's a lot of stuff
- 9:14Speaker 2: going on right now. It's brand new basically. So there's
- 9:16Speaker 2: this lady at JP Morgan. Her name is Sarah Kapnick.
- 9:18Speaker 2: She works in the investment banking division, but she works
- 9:21Speaker 2: specifically with catastrophe bonds, the kinds of things where you're
- 9:26Speaker 2: ensuring you're preparing for climate disasters, very insurance based. There's
- 9:31Speaker 2: also venture capital you can invest in climate tech startups. Sorry,
- 9:34Speaker 2: and that kind of thing.
- 9:35Speaker 1: Oh okay, I gotcha. Wow, okay. But you never want
- 9:38Speaker 1: to be just a meteorologist.
- 9:42Speaker 2: Probably not.
- 9:43Speaker 1: No, you just have an interest in it. Yeah, yeah,
- 9:46Speaker 1: And you have an interest in finance obviously.
- 9:48Speaker 2: I do, and you know it's it's yeah, it's I'm
- 9:51Speaker 2: in the finance club and everything, and I'm getting more
- 9:53Speaker 2: of an act for it.
- 9:54Speaker 1: Now, do you have a savings account? I do.
- 9:57Speaker 2: I don't have much in it. Yeah, I mean I'm
- 9:59Speaker 2: not have enough money to exist in college and be fine.
- 10:02Speaker 1: Do you have any investments yet? You do? Yeah?
- 10:05Speaker 2: Okay, five percent of my portfolio's investments.
- 10:07Speaker 1: Oh really, yeah, didn't. I didn't. I don't think if
- 10:11Speaker 1: I made this up. Didn't a family member gift you
- 10:14Speaker 1: an investment or something?
- 10:16Speaker 2: I mean, my grandfather set up and account for that.
- 10:18Speaker 2: That's what it was when I was when I got
- 10:20Speaker 2: my first hole communion in second grade.
- 10:22Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember that.
- 10:23Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's grown. It's grown like four hundred percent
- 10:26Speaker 2: since then.
- 10:26Speaker 1: Really. Yeah, So if I have any finance questions, I
- 10:28Speaker 1: can ask you. Yeah.
- 10:30Speaker 2: I might not be able to answer everything right now,
- 10:32Speaker 2: but eventually I'll be a answer.
- 10:34Speaker 1: Well, this guy, my Jim told has been like hounding
- 10:37Speaker 1: me in the last couple of weeks to invest in bitcoin.
- 10:40Speaker 2: Okay, I don't invest in bitcoin risky, I think, so
- 10:43Speaker 2: I just invest in traditional stocks.
- 10:46Speaker 1: And yeah, no crypto? No is it? Now? Is that
- 10:48Speaker 1: because you think it's too risky or because you're not
- 10:50Speaker 1: really you don't know enough about it.
- 10:52Speaker 2: I don't know enough about it?
- 10:53Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, okay, But stock's okay.
- 10:56Speaker 2: Stock's great. I mean I would advise against investing in
- 11:00Speaker 2: individual stocks. That's a mistake I've done. They can generate
- 11:03Speaker 2: great upside, you can make three hundred percent on them,
- 11:05Speaker 2: but then they can also crash it. Right, That brings
- 11:07Speaker 2: down your entire portfolio. The market is always kind of
- 11:10Speaker 2: going to go up. That's seven percent a year. So
- 11:12Speaker 2: if you're fine making seven percent a year, like when
- 11:14Speaker 2: I'm this age, I'm eighteen seven percent a year, compounds
- 11:17Speaker 2: every single year. It turns into like a million plus
- 11:19Speaker 2: dollars by the time I'm fifty sixty years old. Even
- 11:23Speaker 2: just investing ten thousand dollars now turn into a million
- 11:26Speaker 2: in forty.
- 11:26Speaker 1: Years in one not in one stock, in several stocks.
- 11:30Speaker 2: Well, yeah, an index is several stocks, so yes, and
- 11:32Speaker 2: p you know there's other less common funds.
- 11:36Speaker 1: So if I have five thousand dollars right now, you
- 11:38Speaker 1: would suggest investing it investing it in an index fund.
- 11:42Speaker 2: Primarily unless you do a lot of research on one
- 11:44Speaker 2: company and feel like you're comfortable investing in that company.
- 11:46Speaker 2: That's what I'm doing now. That's the practice work I'm
- 11:48Speaker 2: doing at school right.
- 11:49Speaker 1: Now is finding companies to invest in. Yeah.
- 11:51Speaker 2: Yeah, Like right now, I'm trying to create a pitch
- 11:53Speaker 2: ok researching companies which companies are good. You have to
- 11:56Speaker 2: look at all their baseline financial numbers, return on investing capital,
- 12:00Speaker 2: their EBITA earnings before interest, taxed appreciation, and the one
- 12:05Speaker 2: other thing.
- 12:06Speaker 1: Well, right now, I keep hearing about obviously this Venezuela
- 12:10Speaker 1: thing and oil in that people should be investing in
- 12:13Speaker 1: oil companies. I think so now, yes, I.
- 12:15Speaker 2: Mean depending on the oil company. Exon Mobile, I guess
- 12:18Speaker 2: isn't going to get a big steak in the Venezuelan
- 12:21Speaker 2: oil because they said it wasn't a lucrative offer. That's
- 12:23Speaker 2: what they said to Trump, and Trump's like, okay, we're
- 12:25Speaker 2: gonna cut you out. So maybe not Xon Mobile.
- 12:28Speaker 1: I keep hearing Chevron.
- 12:29Speaker 2: Chevron might be a good investment. I don't know the
- 12:32Speaker 2: company that well, but yeah, I think oil is a
- 12:34Speaker 2: good bet right now. It's also the Greenland thing. We
- 12:37Speaker 2: don't know what's going to go on with that. They
- 12:38Speaker 2: have a lot of resources up there.
- 12:40Speaker 1: But these are the things that you follow, that you
- 12:42Speaker 1: want to follow because this is this affects the market.
- 12:45Speaker 2: Yeah, you need to know a lot about the geopolitical
- 12:47Speaker 2: situations going on in the world. And I love following
- 12:49Speaker 2: that kind of thing.
- 12:50Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, interesting. So in your classes that you're taking,
- 12:53Speaker 1: like these finance classes. You're interested in what you're learning.
- 12:56Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean right now, it's not really finance classes.
- 12:58Speaker 2: It's basic math, basicly home not basic, but you know
- 13:01Speaker 2: multi veriable calculus, linear algebra, statistics, and probability. You're setting
- 13:05Speaker 2: up the knowledge to be able to do the finance classes.
- 13:08Speaker 1: Leader And when does that come next year?
- 13:10Speaker 2: Probably next year or junior year. Again, I'm taking econ
- 13:13Speaker 2: right now, just basic theory. It's not that applicable in
- 13:15Speaker 2: the real world.
- 13:16Speaker 1: But follong.
- 13:16Speaker 2: The classes one semester, it's some of them are Monday, Wednesday,
- 13:20Speaker 2: Friday for fifteen minutes each and then some are Tuesday
- 13:22Speaker 2: Thursday for an hour and twenty minutes each. So it's
- 13:24Speaker 2: two hours forty minutes a week of class per class.

- 14:30Speaker 1: and your dad went there, he did, so that's kind
- 14:32Speaker 1: of a special thing too, it is.

- 14:43Speaker 2: I mean he's never really pushed me in any one direction.
- 14:46Speaker 2: He gives suggestions I can take him or not.
- 14:49Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 14:50Speaker 2: I decided that with all the factors that play, it
- 14:52Speaker 2: was the best chuition me to apply early too.
- 14:54Speaker 1: And then I got in. What was the second school
- 14:56Speaker 1: you were thinking of?
- 14:56Speaker 2: I was debating between you know, Brown, Dartmouth, Princeton, you know,
- 15:00Speaker 2: to apply early. If I didn't get into Brown early,
- 15:02Speaker 2: I would have applied all eight IVY leagues, Stanford, Duke,
- 15:06Speaker 2: Michigan some safeties. Yeah you visited Duke, I did, didn't you. Well,
- 15:10Speaker 2: Duke's great, great school. Yeah, but again it's it's a game.
- 15:13Speaker 2: You have to beat the game somehow, and it's not
- 15:16Speaker 2: just okay, which school is the prettiest. You have to look, okay,
- 15:19Speaker 2: which school is going to fit my needs the best?
- 15:20Speaker 2: Which school don't have the best chance of getting into early?
- 15:23Speaker 2: So I don't have to worry about this over Christmas,

- 15:37Speaker 1: I just feel like these doors open and you make
- 15:40Speaker 1: decisions and you know, you you hope that it's the
