  Speaker 3: musical theater.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they do.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: And the mts are just kind of different. They are
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: sort of they have a super human ability to uh
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: kind of everything.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: So very squirky, strange individuals.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: Yes, indeed. One yeah. Yeah, and so a little bit
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: like halfway through freshman year, I'm out and I'm with
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: these musical theater majors and one of them is like
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: this is this was like what was passing for a
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: conversation back then. But they were like who in your
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: who in your class sings? Like who's who's who are
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: the really great singers? And I'm I'm naming a couple
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: of people in my class and well and you, of
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: course I don't really sing. And I was like, uh, well,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: what do you mean? And they were like, well, you
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: were going to be in our class. You were going
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: to be in the music theater school, but then you
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: took that gap year and now you're in the acting program.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: And I was like, what are you talking about? And
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: they were like, you posted on our Facebook group. You
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: said you were going to be in our class, and
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: then you took a gap year, and then when you
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: showed up, you were an acting major. So you were
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: going to be a musical theater measure, but then you're
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: an acting major. And what I realized is when I
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: had posted in that Facebook group, I had accidentally posted
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: in the musical theater Facebook group and said, Hey, I
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: was going to be in your class, but now I'm
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: taking a gap year. I'll meet you all next year.
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: And they were like, so you were like you you
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: are almost an MPT yet and I was like, yeah, yeah,
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: that's true. And so I just kind of I was like, yeah,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: you know what, Yeah, like this will be kind of funny,
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: like this will be something that i'll you know, sort
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: of I'll later I'll be like, oh, I was just kidding.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: I can't sing or dance or do any of that stuff.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: And so time passes, and this sort of lie starts
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: to get away from me in a very big way
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: in which like, now people are coming up to me
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: and being like, I hear you have one of the
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: most beautiful voice. Could you sing a little something for
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: us now, Lacy, I'll tell you I don't have a
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: very beautiful voice, so.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: I speaking though.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: Something is lost in translation. I'll tell you that. So people,
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: and so it starts to build more and more and more,
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: and people are like, I heard that you are sort
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: of like a generationally talented thing, and so I had
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: to like think of a thousand excuses to not sing
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: in front of people the entire time I was at school. Yeah,
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: And then it started turning into people being like, yeah,
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: I heard you couldn't get back into the musical theater school,
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: so you had to go to acting. Like now, then
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: it turned into this idea that like, oh, like the
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: second time around, I wasn't talented enough to be in
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: the musical leader school, which, to be fair, I was
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: never talented enough to be in the musical theater school.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: But the next year I am dating this girl who's
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: in the musical theater program and she's a year younger
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: than me, and she goes to this party and people
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: are like, have you ever heard your boyfriend sing? And
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: she's like no, and they're like he's unbelievable. He's like
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: one of the best singers in the world. And I
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: guess like my refusal this thing had just like head
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: this thing build and build and build, and by then
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: I was terrified to be like, hey, everybody, I lied.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: So she is like listening to all these people tell
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: her this and she's like, Kyle, like I really don't
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: think so I think you're all wrong, and they're like no, no,
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: like he's the best. And so she comes over that
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: night and she's like like hey, like it's weird, yeah,
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: yea yeah. She was like you never sing for me,
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: and I was like I knew exactly. I knew immediately
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: what was going on. I was like, you know, I don't.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, if a woman asked the man to perform musical
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: talents the second agenda, because yeah, never you have never
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: never been trying a man whips out a guitar. I'm like, yeah, yeah,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: he's like more goog dolls.
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: So I was just like, uh, listen, I don't really
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: do that anymore. I was like trying to get out
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: of it so hard, and then she starts like balling crying,
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: and I was like, wait, what the what the what
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: the fuck's going on? She was like I can't believe
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: that there's like this thing that I didn't know about you,
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: and like this is like a whole big, like part
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: of your identity, I guess, and like it's something you
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: felt like you had to hide from me, and like
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: I came off the wait list and it's like weird
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: that you never told me that. And I was like listen,
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: I was like, none of it's real. I was like,
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: it's all fake. It's it's it's like one like joke
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: that I thought was going to pay off that is
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: now has consumed my life. And she was like.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: Oh, thank god, like thank god, because I think she
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: did not want to be with a like quote unquote
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: like musical beater man And.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Is that what she said?
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Because tell me what she said, there were there.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: I think there was a lot of reasons behind her relief.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: I think I think that it was probably also to
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: a degree that like she was like, like she had said,
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: I think she was glad that there wasn't like a
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: whole part of my identity that had been hidden from
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: her that like.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: And like I was feeling like I must he must
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: be cheating on me.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah all around town for me.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah exactly exactly.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: I got a door ray or me out of his ass,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: So what's going on?
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: And so, uh but then she told everyone and that
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: was the end of my scam, and uh, it was.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: It was weird like people with people like would like
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: I trusted you man, Like they were like this, this
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: this matters to us, and I was like, wow, this
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: really it did. It was a little bit damaging to
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: my personal stock.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: But oh my goodness, I know, I feel like the
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: scam a little bit here too. Though. It's like, Kyle
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: is just the body that you were born into, like
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: being a charismatic white man with a full head of hair,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: and you just mentioned something just like oh yeah, musical
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: theater and then all of a sudden, they've ran with
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: this like he's so charismatic, his hair is so full,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: he's the best singer in the world.
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: They created this whole, this whole corporate brand identity for
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: me as like as like you know, like a performer,
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: a shinger.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: And you feel that by refusing to sing, because then
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: they were like, yeah, he's so good he won't even
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: share his y with me. Personally, people were like, oh,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: it's time people sing. I'm like scam Like, I'm like
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: I gotta start whipping it out because I got to
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: prove myself. But you just being like no, no, no,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: not Like now they're like, oh, he must be so
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: good because he won't even give us a taste.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: It made it seem like I had nothing to prove,
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: when in reality, I quite literally had nothing with which
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: to prove my shelf. Uh Yeah, So so that was
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: sort of the scam that consumed my life for a
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: little while.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: That's a bar I kind of look that. I think
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: all of us need to take that on a little
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: bit more. I'm gonna stop trying to prove myself so hard. Yeah, right,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: if you keep it a little clandestine, then people are
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: like what do they have to hide? It works the
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: same way in dating, like the word I've learned that
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: like there's really just bitch or whore, like like it's
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: gonna be a war. Yeah, like and and horre doesn't
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: necessarily mean like a negative connotation doesn't mean like even
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: sex worker I don't think is negative. So I'm not
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: even taking that, but like what I mean. So it's
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: like I'm always like the nice person who's always like,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: look what I can do. Look at that you need help,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: I'll give you help. You need money, I'll give you money.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: And that is not proven to be the way to
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: bring the type of people in my life that I want.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: So I was like, ooh, it's time to jump over
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: the bitch, which is like, why do you deserve my time?
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna like, I'm not gonna be rude to you,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: but I'm also not going to open my whole life
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: up to you, you stranger, with that you proving that
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: you belong here. So you kind of did the bitch
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: version of being like people without trying to do it,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: ye people being like please think press and like I
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: don't do that. I don't yeah yeah, yeah, and asked
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: her to sing for me should be like whoa, you know.
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they thought that I knew my worth. That they
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: thought that I was just like sitting around knowing my
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: worth when in reality I knew exactly what my work
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: was and it wasn't enough just toff. That's so true though.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: I think like one of the things that I think
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: that you learn the older you get and the more
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: like like menu interact with is that like men, like
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: they're the real talent of the man is like uh
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: is being trainable, like being able to like accept the dynamic.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: So if you like go to a man and you're like, oh,
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: like i'll do this for you, I'll do this for you,
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: I'll do this for you, like I'm all these things
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: to you, They're like, great, that is the dynamic. And
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: the dynamic is inherently like fair, you know, like it's
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: and so if you if you set the dynamic, you're like,
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: what do you bring to the table. They're like, that's
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: the dynamic. The dynamic is that like I'm like, you know,
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: like you know, in more of kind of an equal
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: you know, flow, and so so I think, I mean,
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: I think it's I think it's a valid philosophy.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: And under, you know, in a different body, like my
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: brown body, my female body, my queer body. People are
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: always assuming less of me automatically, which is crazy. Like
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: you know how DEI was pejorative, Like it became a
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: pejorative term for brand of black people getting jobs they
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: didn't deserve, when in actuality, we had to not even
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: black people minorities in general, but like we had to
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: be ten times better to get the job. Yeah, Like
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: you like, you know, certain people of certain ilkskuldwalk and like,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: you know, like a straight white man and they would
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: just assume that you have the skills of the talent
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: and you could learn them on the job, Kyle, Whereas
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: they're like when I come to the job, they're like,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: you've been working at this job a million years, right.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Like you're overly qualified.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I like that technique, and I think a
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: lot of us can take that on a little bit more.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: I definitely am going to I have as I've gotten
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: a little bit older.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean I that was one of the
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: things is I had once at one point tried to
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: explain like the DEI conversation to like an uncle of mine,
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: and I was like, they're playing.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Because a lot of white men like to come talk
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: to us about like, damn, it's really hard.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Out here for y'all.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah yeah uncle, hell yeah yeah, everyone can go
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: talk to your uncle. It was hard, man, It was
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: I was like, please never on Facebook ever again. But
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: just what I was saying is I was like, like,
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: it's the exact same game, but they're playing on like
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: the extreme difficulty level, you know what I mean. Like
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: if someone's like there, if someone's like, uh, like playing
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: the exact same game that you're playing, and they're playing
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: on a much harder difficulty, that that means that they're
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: probably a lot more capable and qualified than like if you,
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: if you were able to sort of just walk through it.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Right, because how did they get there?
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: If he likes video games? So I was trying to
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: put it. I was trying to create a frame of
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: reference that would really work for him. I don't think
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: it worked.
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: I love that you came at him like a youth
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: pastor and you did your best.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: You did your best.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: Really is my energy. I had a guitar. I was like, listen,
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: oh I love that.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Oh goodness, well look we all learned something here. I
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: love this and you know what we're gonna keep in
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: that frame. So you know, you you talk about how
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: to piss off man man. You know that was obviously
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: like a huge thing, and now you have this podcast
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: coming out get worse on big money players, and so
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: I wanted to This actually falls right into what we
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: were talking about.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: But I have a listener letter here from the audience.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: As always, snitch on your friends, your family, and your
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: enemies at scam gottess pot at gmail dot com. Just
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: make sure your scam is retired because we don't want
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: to what yes, fuck up your bag a man? So, Kyle,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: I need you to give me a fake name. Gender
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter.
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: M Carrie Carrie.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: Okay, I like that. Is it Carrie with a see
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: or Cary with a k?
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: It's Carrie with a c ooh like the movie but
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Pet's blood.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly like the movie with the fixed blood.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: So Carrie says, hello, Queen of all things Scammering the
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: scam I run is simple and though technically illegal, heavy
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: on the technical. No one stands to lose and the
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: only thing the scammed are left holding is shame and
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: the knowledge that you can't fuck with my bag. Okay, Carrie.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: And typically if I read a listener letter and they
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: say the scam is ongoing, I may share it. I
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: may not because I know that you have a very
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: strong TikTok acumen, Like I'm sure you like I'll be
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: on their doom scrolling shit. My algorithm is very curated,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: but it's rare that I'll post every now and then
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: I'll get a girl full of something. But I know,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: you know like how it is when you're a little
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: bit more involved in that. But one thing I really
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: hate about TikTok is that people don't gate keep enough.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: It's like you find out something and then you have
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: to tell everybody, and I'm like, sometimes it's like keep
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: it in your group chat because you're actually fucking up.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: The bags are on here the you know, everybody's gonna
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: start adjusting because you were like, here's a new secret
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: I learned, Like, bitch, don't tell us, don't tell everybody.
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean I think I think anytime that
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: you can there are some people who live their life
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: thinking anytime I can offer something useful that like another
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: person could like use or or take, then that is
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: like algorithm jews. Yeah, So like I think that like
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: one of the things that I like learned through like
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: writing is that like sometimes the most important decision that
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: you can make is to show restraint. And I think
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: it's the same thing like knowing when not to go
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: viral at a certain point becomes Josh, this important is
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: as knowing when to go viral, and and I think
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: that like a big part of like yeah, like you know,
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: I mean like not like fucking up your entire life
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: is being like okay, yeah, like there's some stuff that
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: I am going to keep for me or you know,
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: keep for me and my friends because you know, like, uh,
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: just because I can use it to be seen by
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: a lot of people doesn't mean that's that's gonna be
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: good for me or my life or my career.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: And people are so there's just become such a desperation
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: because of our economy and because of how hard it
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: is to just get a regular job that you know,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: people are like, oh, I see this person go viral
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: like doctor pepper baby, bebe let me look what's my
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: doctor pepper baby. Like I'm trying to get out of
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: the struggle, and it's like it's not gonna work for everybody.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Some of us have to be CNA's babes, like some
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: of us have to. Somebody's got to do these jobs.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: I need an electrician. Don't come over here dancing while
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: you're working on the wiring.
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: Please. It's just like a very famous famous like it's
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: like a tweet or something, but it's like a picture
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: and it says like we don't need any more influencers,
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: we need gaffers. These shows are dark.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: As shit, real as fuck. Okay, because what Game of
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: Thrones case the point?
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: Ye?

• 19:08
  Speaker 1: just to get a plumber, I ain't seen the crack
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: of years. Put the crack back, okay. Why I'll wear
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: a past that fit and then coming in here like
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: when I plumb a toilet.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: I like them. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I have a
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: deal with lows.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: Click on my TikTok yeah, makeing videos in there. It's
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: not flushing.
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: It's so crazy that if you were a hot guy
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: who had a job, if you were a hot guy
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: with a job back in the day, like your reward
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: was just being a hot guy and having a job.
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: And now if you're a hot guy with a job,
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: people are like, you can just become a media personality
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: overnight because people are like, I can't believe a hot
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: person would do a job. People are so amazed whenever
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: a hot person's like, oh I do blood like, they're like, wow,
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: this is incredible. I love this.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: I can't believe this. I remember on Love Island this
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: past season was this guy Bryce who ended up winning,
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: and he's like a beautiful hot man model and he
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: would talk a lot about how he would work on
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: garbage trucks and that was like the hottest things for
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: people on the end of the day. But the sexy
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: ass man knows how to do, like we wire a
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: garbage truck. Yeah, we got a.
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: Job in the world, which now.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: Paying a job, it is we're forgetting that. A lot
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: of utility jobs pay very well because we cannot not
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: have them.
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: I read something recently about how the most if you
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: were to pull one profession of people and just rapture
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: them all out of the universe, what would cause our
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: society to implode the fastest, And it's garbage people. It's
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: like I guess, like apparently America can only survive like
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: four hours without garbage. People like we.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Pay ever figures it's a good job and it's never
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: going away, never going away.
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: Sort of the last line of defense between us and
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: the end of society. You know, it's crazy, it's true.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: That's so true, and on so many levels. Because yes, one,
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: we need to clear away the garbage. We need to
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: be able to drive on our streets. But also there's
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: a mental health aspect. If I have to keep all
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: my own garbage, then you know, my brain starts to
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: get clogged. I start to feel bad about myself if
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: there's trash bags in my kitchen. Yeah, garbage men are
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: doing work on so many levels. When need to start
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: giving them more love? Yeah, and garbage women, gage and
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: garbage non binary garbage icons. Yes, I agree with you.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: We'll get back to Carrie here, Carrie says. So Carrie
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: said this is technically illegal, but like only technical, lad,
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: and I like that for us. So Carrie says, I
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: started a small business three years ago, and I deal
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: in a very unethical industry where people love to evade
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: contract terms.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: And skip out on the bill.
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: It's a lot of those. And she says that the
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: bill usually runs anywhere between one thousand to forty thousand
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: dollars per contract. Those are some big skips, A thousand
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: dollars skip. I'm mad for sure, forty k I gotta
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: come fight you like, yeah, trunk, Yeah, I gotta get
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: a bat.
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: I'm sending guys to your home.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because that's enough money to split with the guys, right.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: Exactly, I'm pocketing thirty five and they're both taking two
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: point five.
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: And they would be like, say less, you could have
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: gave them two fifty, and the would have been like.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: This is this is the thing is kind of getting
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: help keeps getting cheaper, you know, right, you could break
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: legs for two hundred dollars.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: You know, rate for breaking a leg used to be
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: much more expensive. And these days, I'm like paid to
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: go to boxing classes. So you tell me I can
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: whoop ass and get paid.
• 22:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. That's the thing about going
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: to boxing classes for a long time. You're like, I
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: don't know if I can if this is helping at all.
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: I don't know if this is if this is working
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: at all, Like, I don't know if I could fight.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, so, spar if you want to, if you
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: want to get to the level where you're really trying
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: to whoop aass.
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: He personally, I just like to get there and get
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: out my frustration.
• 22:58
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: I used to get the note a lot from one
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: of my boxing instructors, and sometimes I still get it,
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: which was like, you know, I'll be throwing the combo
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: and they'll be like, why is your like protect your
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: face if your jack with one hand, the other hand
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: needs to be in front of your face, and I'll
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: be hitting people with one face completely open. And then
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I realized after a while it was my superpower because
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: I used to always say, like, the best way to
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: win a fight is to not get scared, like not
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: be scared to get hit. Yeah, you look like a
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: crazy person if you don't protect your face.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: This person will do anything.
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: I had a friend ones who was like a big talker,
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: but one thing that he said was the trick to
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: winning a fight is not caring what happens to you exactly.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: It's like, oh my god, it's not diabolical, but it's anything.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: You know. That's why I'm hiring guys.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: Right same, I'm getting a burner funck. But yeah, like
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: that's why I'm fuck with people who have nothing to lose.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: If I'm me, somebody I could tell I don't have
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: nothing to lose. Oh, you are dangerous to me because
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: you'll do anything. That's a crash out for real.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: All my enemies have families and a lot of money.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Got a way to have an enemy. Yeah, somebody who
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: doesn't want to go to prison. Somebody who's like, I've
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: done a.
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: Bit in their life. I'll tell you.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: That, got a lot of love that their life.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: They got people who will come looking for them the calling.
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: Roads around, who are like, it's not worth it. You
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: know that.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: I don't have no enemies who are like jail. No, no, no,
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: you know CEOs and the joint you got you got
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: clout in prison? No no, no, you got it. You
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: can take anything you want. So Carrie says, after years
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: of chasing money from the big man aka liquor companies,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: advertisement and marketing agencies, et cetera, I decided to see
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: what would happen if I seed my lawyer in quotes
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: in my demands for payment. Now, listen, I'm a thirty
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: two year old woman trying to run a small business
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: in a world overseen by the Trump's theen administration.
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: I hear, So I know I don't have that long money.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: The idea of having a lawyer on retainer is nothing
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: but a pipe dream to me right now. But let's
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: manifest lawyer on retainer. Let's manifest it for all of us.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: So what Carrie says is what I do have is
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: a best friend who works as a legal assistant and
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: has an email address registered to a legal office. Can
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: she sew on my behalf?
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: Hell no? Is she registered in my province?
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: Hell no? Does anyone google anything nowadays? Hell? To the note, absolutely,
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: we are in a literacy crisis. I think it's the
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: forty six or fifty percent of the country reads at
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: a sixth grade level, and people get hired all the
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: time without checking diplomas. AI is hiring people you know.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: Indeed is a mess. Everything is a mess. So you
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: could definitely get away with this, So Carrie said, I
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: noticed quickly that when I seed her and mentioned that
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: my legal representation has been copied for transparency, all you
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: goody use that word transparency. That's a scrumptuous corporate word. Hey,
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: that's right up there with circle back.
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: So when she would say she was copying them for transparency,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: companies and spokespeople tend to move real fast. Invoices lost
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: to the spam folder, in quotes are all of a
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: suddenly found instantly, and contract terms are spontaneously remembered. I
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: have employed my legal representation in quotes tactic on three
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: separate occasions and gotten what's rightfully owed to me each time. Meanwhile,
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: the corporations get to sit with the fear of pending
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: civil suits that will never be filed, and my bestie
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: gets some drama in her inbox while she does her
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: boring paralegal tasks. My credo has always been do no harm,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: take no shit, stay skimming, and get what's rightfully yours. Carrie, Yes, Carrie,
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: we all need a fake lawyer. Yeah we do. I
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: have employed this many a time, especially when I first
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: moved to Alee, Like it was a lot of freelance
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: work and there were no contracts involved. And it's so
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: funny because people want you to work on time, but
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: they want to pay you late. Like, what the fuck
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: is a net ninety? What is the net thirty ninety
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: is crazy? And I've seen it net forty five? What
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: do you mean you don't have the money but you
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: need the services but and then they want to call
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: you broke. If you hit them up, You're like, hey,
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: I did the job, you loved it. You sent me
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: all this praise. Where is my praise in money form?
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: I don't want compliments from businesses, but we're not friends.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: I don't need you to build myself esteem, build my
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: bank account. So where's the coin? And they'll be like, oh,
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: you need the money that bad? Like you you hard up,
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: you can't wait. No, don't try to shame me. You're
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: the poor one.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: I'm like, you don't have the money you need ninety
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: days to pay people Warner Brothers.
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: Right, Like I want to be able to gas the
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: gas like the bank and be like, damn Bank of America,
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: you ain't got it. Huh, that's the the problem. Mortgage loans.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: They're still hurting. Oh you gave all that money to
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: open AI.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: Y'all poor.
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: It's so convenient that they can take money out of
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: my account. Wickedy split with no problem, so fast.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And that always kind of bumped me about refunds too.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: It's like, I tap my cars, swipe my car, give
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: you the cash, whatever the transaction is.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: But then if I need a refund.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: They're like, okay, so three to nine business weeks and
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: then we'll get you the money back.
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: What do you mean uphill on the way back?
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: That's so makes noses uphill on the.
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: Way I don't understand. This is the thing is that people,
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: This is this is the issue about Like people will
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: say to me, you don't understand computers, and I'm like,
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: you're right, you know, like I can't, but it's harder
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: to put back. And I'm like, I don't know enough
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: about computers to say why that wouldn't be the case.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: And that's a great scam that we've seen employed in
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: our administration. It's very much employed in how stocks and
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: trading and things like that works. Like they put a
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: barrier to entry with a bunch of fucking jargon in
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: front of you to be like you don't understand what
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: pe means, Like you don't understand, Like, yeah, you don't
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: understand all of these jargon wars that we made up
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: as barriers to enter.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: So now you need me the middleman or like oh,
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: you don't understand this so we.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: Don't have to pay you. What?
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: No, Yeah, that's why you need pretty simple your imaginary lawyer.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: We all need an imaginary lawyer.
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: It's it's so this is this is actually something that
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: I've used a lot too. Like I feel like, throughout
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: like my early years in LA, just constantly like if
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: you had issues with a landlord, just being like hey, great, yeah,
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: let me just check this with my lawyer real quick
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: and then we'll then we'll chat about it. I remember
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: a few years ago my apartment flooded. Oh man, I'm sorry,
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: totally fine. They asked us to put a ton of
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: stuff on our renter's insurance even though it wasn't our fault.
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: What it was is the kid upstairs shot a bb
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: gun into a sprinkler and caused like two million dollars
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: the damage, which is a mint.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: I know this is a kid, or it's like what
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: we call a kid when he had like a like thirty.
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: Four yeah counterstrike kid. But no, it was they kept
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: asking us to put all this stuff onto our renters insurance,
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: and I was like, I feel like the more you
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: report to insurance, the like dice here it gets. And
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: so they were like, okay, well we're going to move
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: you to or you should go somewhere else, and you
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: know your renter's insurance will pay for it, but also
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: we want you to keep paying rent and your renter's
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: insurance will pay for it. And so while we couldn't
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: live in the building, they were asking us to pay rent.
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: And I was like, that is so interesting. I just
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: have to check on the legality of that with my lawyer.
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: And they were like, don't bother. It's cool. No worries,
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: like don't don't pay right right, they were like, let's
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: just see what happens. It's like, even the the implication
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: that a lawyer is in your life is enough to
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: make people be like all right, never right exactly.
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: I think even if you don't have a lawyer, bestie
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: with the with the email, Okay, we talk about fishing
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: emails on here all the time. Allegedly I never said this,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: but you know, like you know how they be Amazon
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: with a O instead of or what a zero instead
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: of Oh, I don't know, maybe it's Celeno.
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: And Barnes, but the bar is just like.
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: A sign instead of an A.
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you just tag them, you just add them, copy
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: them to the email.
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: It's like it's like the Shoots law firm. It's like.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: This is the law firm from watched that show. No
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: one checks no one's going to follow up. Maybe you
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: all just need to have another email domain. Yeah, get
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: a website, Squarespace, psor the show.
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: Face well fake lawyer a fake lawyer website.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: But yes, the threat of any type of legality, especially
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: when you know that you're doing something that is illegal
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: to someone as a to a consumer, is enough for
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: most people to deter because they don't want to get
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: tied up in court. And I also say, like, if
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: you're living or renting, you should definitely know the renter's
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: laws in your state. You should know, like, for example,
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: one of the biggest things that people get people on
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: in California is if you paint your walls, if you
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: live somewhere over three years, then they can't charge you
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: to repaint it because they have to repaint it anyway
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: when you move out, so they can't take that from
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: your deposit. But they love to do it because people
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: don't know. So it's like you got to do a
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: little consumer research. And if you don't want to do
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: all that, like Kyle said, you just say that you
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: need to consult with counsel and say it like that.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: When you start throwing words at people like that, it works.
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: I've done it in the hospital. I have because I
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: have an entertainment lawyer. But my entertainment lawyer is not
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: going to do anything like outside of that. But I
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: was in the hospital when I was getting poetreatment because
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: I'm a black woman and I was supposed to be
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: getting some type of I think it was like a
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: some type of opioid, and opio has made me very
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: very sick, and so I had to get Zoe friend,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: which is something that's anti naja with it. But I
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: had to stay ahead of the pain after surgery because
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: if you get behind it, then you're in pain for hours.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: And so my doctor put me on a schedule because
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: I guess I wasn't when I did outpatient like recovery,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: it wasn't working, so he put me on a schedule
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: in the hospital.
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: This.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: Oh, there's such a nurse.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: Cop pipeline, like the worst people Like that's not all nurses, okay,
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: because there's a lot of healers out there, and I
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: appreciate the nurses, especially through the shit y'all been through
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: with COVID and everything. But you know, but y'all nurses
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: know the ones y'all know the pictures that y'all got
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: to go check on their patients because they over there
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: pinching them or not changing their bed pain and not
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: checking out. You know who I'm talking about, the ones
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: you want to tag.
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: It's half angels and half girls who beat you up
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: in high school. Yes, And there's no way to know
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: nurse is born. God flips a coin.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: That's it because because my favorite nurses they drive me
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: side ultimates, they bump gangst the ram coming into the
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: hospital parking lot, and you know they're lit. And then
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: you have the ones who are the conservative nurses, probably
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: also married to cops, who they have a God complex,
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: and so they're seeing people in their most wicked state
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: and they get to exert control. And I had one
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: of those, unfortunately, and so I was like, I think
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: it's time for my medication. I'm like looking at the time,
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: but she was like, I don't think you really need it.
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: I think because I'm black, she was thinking, I was
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: in here, Jones and for some drugs, you know, you
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: know them drugs that black people all love so much, like.
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: Bitch, are you fucking serious? And so when.
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: For drugs, right, I'm gonna go to that link. I'm
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: gonna drugs.
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: Are everywhere now.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, I need those Blue Cross Blue Shield drugs.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: It's like, believe the hospital name for me, please, but
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: I need them drugs in the hospital. No, that's a
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: lot of great links when I could probably just go
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: to a park, you know.
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: So she refused and I was like, oh, well that's okay.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: If you are refusing my health care, could you go
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: ahead and write it down? And I was like, actually,
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: don't even worry about it. I know the shift and
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: the time that you're on right now and your information,
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: so I'm gonna go ahead and just communicate that to
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: my legal team that you were refusing care and we
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: can get into it with the hospital. I was like, this,
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: this is discrimination and if that's what you choose to do,
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: let's go there.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: And she was like, oh no, no no, no, no no no,
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: I'll give you.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: I'll give you your stuff. No no, no no no.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: It changed starts something real quick.
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: But she did fuck me over a little bit because
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: remember why I said that opiloays make me sick. I
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: don't think she gave me to write Dosa to zofran,
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: so I think it pretty violently. Ill.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: I was like, this bitch, she did this shit on purpose.
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: I once had a kind of like weird like neurological thing.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: It was so I think it was it's what it's
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: called like a cluster migraine, but it manifests as a stroke,
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: so you have stroke symptoms. And I was like, twenty
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: three is the scariest thing is that you're like, oh, man,
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: like I can't read and I can't talk and my
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: arm is numb. And so I taken to the hospital
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: in an ambulance and I was in you know, the
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: room and everything, and I was lying in bed and
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: I was like shaking, and I was like so scared.
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: And there was a moment. It's very late at night
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: and it's Saint Patrick's day, so people keep coming in
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: and they keep being like, oh.
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the hospital lit. I'll say yeah.
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: They just kept being like, just police, tell us what
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: you took. Like it's fine, it's fine, We're not anyway.
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: It was like I was like, he's literally just my
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: head is exploding. And so eventually this woman comes in
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: it's like two forty five am, it's really late, and
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: she comes up to the end of my bed and
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: looks at my chart and she like looks at the
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: chart and she's like, oh my god, you had a
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: stroke and I was like yeah, and she was like
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: how old are you? And I was like twenty three
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: and she was like, oh my god, baby, and then
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: she looked around and she went are you scared?
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: What the fuck?
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: And I was like, oh my yeah, and she was
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: like I bet and then she walked out and I
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: never saw her again. And I think about that interaction
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: probably I've thought about it every day since.
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: It's just like she was like, fucking say it.
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: This is I was like, oh my god, at least
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: what I think about all the time. I was like,
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: maybe like a fifty percent chance that was a real nurse,
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: Like that could have been somebody inscrubbed, a lady, some lady.
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: I just I'll never ever forget it because it was
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: just she was like, I bet you were scared, and
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: then gone and I was.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: Like, see you like here to give me any care?
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: Just yeah, no, just to check my shit out. I
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: had like a friend in the room too. I've I like,
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: I like looked over her and she looked at me
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: and I was like, that can't be. That can't be sanctioned.
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: I'm glad you had a witness, So you didn't feel like.
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: Well, that was the thing is that I would have
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: doubted that for the rest of my life. Had I not,
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: I would have been like, well, that was so manifestation
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: of a tortured mind, right.
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: But the fact that they were bold enough to do
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: it in front of a witness as well, Yeah, scared
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: should be. And then they just fade away the.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: Demons. I think you're right, guy's flipping a coin.
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: Oh scared.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: God. Well, let's get into the episode today. Let's get
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: into my favorite segment, Historic Hoodwings. This is where I
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: were a Gale Kyle with a famous con caper group
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: of criminals. Maybe we love them, maybe we hate them.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: We'll see along the way. So today we're gonna be
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: talking about a fraudulent fro Yo brand that victimized multiple
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: pro baseball teams. So teams right now isn't giving individual
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: it's giving corporate, it's giving box ownership.
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: But we'll see along the way.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: I do think I like baseball players. I guess just
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: from a like a health standpoint, It's one of the
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: safer sports because you know, football are like getting a
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: car crashes the whole time. Basketball you can make a
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: lot of money, but then do one wrong trip and
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: you're out forever. Baseball players seem to have the longest
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: longevity in like high paid sports. But today we're going
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: to talk about Krimly. So krimly pronounced, However, I want
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: to pronounce it because it's a French company, So maybe
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: it's clem Lely, clem lay klema Ly. I don't know.
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: I'll switch it up.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: So clem Lay claim to make healthy keto French frozen
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: yogurt using a two milk. Have you ever heard of
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: a two milk?
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: A two milk?
• 39:37
  Speaker 5: Now?
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: I haven't. Certain breeds of cows produce more A two
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: proteins in their milk, and other breeds produce more A
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: one proteins. A two milk might cause less bloating gas
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: or digestive discomfort than regular milk. A too milk is
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: nutritionally the same as other milk and still contains lactose,
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: but it's digestive benefits are still questionable. But it's a
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: popular way to market your milk. Like we got milk
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: that you won't be blowing it up at night, you
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: won't be farting.
• 40:10
  Speaker 3: I guess it's crazy to live through all these milk
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: technological innovations just with they've figured out so many new
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: different ways.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: I just want to know, right, I want to know
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: who was the weirdo though, who was like seeing cows
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: like like baby cows like suck on the utters and
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: was like, I wonder what that tastes like?
• 40:32
  Speaker 3: You say?
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: It was like everybody comes.
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: Back to the barn, comes back the barn. Listen, I'm
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: gonna need you to not say anything until I've done talking.
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: Walk with me, Walk with me, Walk with me.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: Don't that's how I got here. Just come with me
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: to the destination.
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: You know how every time we eat cookies for like,
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: this is almost perfect. I've come up with a crazy idea.
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: Literally we were eating oats and water. But what about Yeah,
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: this's got something for us, I think she does.
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: She's finally ready to help us.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: Finally ready to help us. So Cliny also said one
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: hundred percent of their profits were donated to ignite the
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: power in girls globally. So they said, we got some
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: as to milk. It's not gonna bloat you, it's not
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: gonna gas you. It's the best premium. We got that
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: good mo moo. Okay, we got moo but also, if
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: you buy from us, we're gonna ignite the power in
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: girls globally. Kyle, do you have any idea what that
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: could mean?
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: I I there's two sides of it. It's either we're
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: going to educate more girls worldwide so they can get
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: more power, or it's like X men experimental, like we're
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: giving girls Telegonesis it is? It is really quite vague.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: It's so vague that you can't quantify it, because how
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: can I ever be like Clemly didn't it. I haven't
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: met any ignited girls, like I mean, I guess Alicia.
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: Alicia Keys was like, this girl is on fire. Crimly
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: was like, we did that, we ignited her on fire,
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: and that was our donation with your proceeds. What what
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: do you mean? I love it. I love a vague charity,
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: like we don't know where the money goes and we'll
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: never know. Yeah, I mean that's why Tom's was so good.
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember Tom's shoes, those shoes
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: that made everybody's feet stink. But they were like, if
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: you buy a pair of shoes, we gonna give a
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: pair of shoes. And that's something that's quantifiable. We can
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: go see.
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: Very easy to sort of understand the level of your investment.
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: I got it, I get choose somebody else get shoes exactly.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: But ignition? What am I supposed to ask girls if
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: they if they've been ignited by Krimly? How would we know?
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: It sounds borderline violent? Right, I don't think I want.
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: I don't be ignited.
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. I don't think so it sounds
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: it sounds aggressive.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: And it's the implication is that we need charity to
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: ignite the girls. Are the boys already on fire? Like? What?
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: I want to understand.
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: So sports deals, the company had partnerships with many Pro
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: baseball teams, including the Angels, Diamondbacks, Red Sox, and Mets,
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: and NBA teams like the Knicks and the Celtics. So
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: they had some really popular franchises involved in their partnerships,
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: and like the Knicks at the time, wasn't that popping?
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: But you know now Knicks and five So yeah. In
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: January of twenty twenty two, the brand purchased sponsor rights
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: to Chase Fields Keystone feature then branded it as Krimly
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: Pool Sweet Photograph Show. A massive popsicle sculpture looming in
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: the background, with the company's name spelled out in black
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: tiles at the pool's bottom, and it lit up in
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: white on a sign above. Photographs show a massive popsicle
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: sculpture loving in the background, with the company's name spelled
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: out in black tiles at the pool's bottom and lit
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: up in a white on the sign above. They agreed
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: to pay the Diamondbacks more than two point three million
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: dollars over five years for this sponsorship. So we're going
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: to take a look at this pool suite right now.
• 44:33
  Speaker 7: This was our experience being inside the pool suite at
• 44:36
  Speaker 7: Chase Field for the Diamondbacks and Dodgers game. We arrived
• 44:38
  Speaker 7: to the stadium during the second inning, and the energy
• 44:40
  Speaker 7: was insane for the biggest game of the year. If
• 44:43
  Speaker 7: you've been to a game at Chase Field, you've probably
• 44:45
  Speaker 7: seen this pool, and it would take a whole other
• 44:47
  Speaker 7: video to explain why it was even built. When we arrived,
• 44:49
  Speaker 7: we got a free towel, and it's basically like a
• 44:51
  Speaker 7: regular suite where you get free food and drinks, except
• 44:54
  Speaker 7: it's outdoors and it includes a pool and hot tub.
• 44:57
  Speaker 7: We got into the pool right away, as surprisingly, the
• 44:59
  Speaker 7: water was almost as warm as a hot tub, you're
• 45:01
  Speaker 7: able to bring your drink inside, and it was a
• 45:03
  Speaker 7: really awesome time, even though the view from the pool
• 45:06
  Speaker 7: wasn't great. We come to d Backs games often and
• 45:08
  Speaker 7: there's nothing comparable to swimming in a pool with a
• 45:11
  Speaker 7: game happening right in front of you. Next to the
• 45:13
  Speaker 7: suite is this really cool seating area where we got
• 45:15
  Speaker 7: to see superstar players up close. There's also a private
• 45:18
  Speaker 7: bathroom and shower, which we didn't get to film.
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: Okay, I have been to baseball games. I have this
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: feels like who thought of this? Who was like, you
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: know what, baseball needs a swimming pool that you can
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: watch the game from.
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: It's gluttonous, It's this is the thing is we just
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: we thought we could improve upon sitting down with beer
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: and a hot dog to.
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: Having a hot dog and a beer in a.
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: Pool at a baseball game.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: At a baseball game, Americans are so gluttonous for entertainment
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: that we were like, oh, this, sitting in the base
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: like even sitting next to the field, being next to
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: the outfield, even like you know, being in the dugout
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: with the players, that's not enough of an experience for
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: an American consumer. What if we gave them a pool
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: to swim in.
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: It's unbelievable.
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: And we give them hot dogs and and we give
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: them beer, and we put them in a pool. Now,
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: they said that the pool doesn't give you a great
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: view of the game, so it's given a little influencing
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: thing to me of like, because I've never gone to
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: a baseball game and been like, yeah, I want to
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: get wet.
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what would be what would really take
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: this experience the next level is being wet right now.
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: This is the thing is if I was in a
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: pool at a baseball game and I had a little
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: hot dog in a and I had a beer, I'd
• 46:45
  Speaker 3: probably be concerned that they were about to put me down.
• 46:49
  Speaker 3: You know, like how when you give a dog the
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: best day of its life, it's evidence that you're gonna
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: kill it. Like when you're like the dogs like wow,
• 46:56
  Speaker 3: like Hamburger and right staate, Like really, this is the
• 47:03
  Speaker 3: thing is, if I was there, I'd be like, everyone's
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: being a little bit too nice to Kyle.
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: You know, you're trying to give me several good experiences
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: at once, But also is it a good experience to
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: be in a pool? They said the pool was almost
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: as warm as it was outside. Why is the pool
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: not cold? I don't want to be in lukewarm water
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: watching sweaty sports. Also, I feel like there's so many
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: liabilities here because it's a notorious thing at sporting events
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: that people get way too drunk.
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: They get carried out.
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: Like if I get drunk in the pool and then
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: is there a lifeguard at the pool?
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: Like is there?
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: This is the thing? This is the thing too. It's
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: like there's a big thing I think where it's like
• 47:43
  Speaker 3: I will enjoy the experience like a hundred times as
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: much if I know that other people are denied that experience,
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: Like that's like a well documented sort of psychological phenomenon.
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: I read this book, yeah, like status and Culture where
• 47:56
  Speaker 3: they talked about it. If they got one hundred people
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: in a room and they give ten people special presents
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: and they told those ten people hate the other people
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: they didn't get these presents, their level of happiness skyrockets.
• 48:05
  Speaker 3: And if they give everybody in the room presence, people
• 48:08
  Speaker 3: are barely affected by it. So I think probably if
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: I had to guess the appeal of being in the
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: pool at the baseball game, as you look around and
• 48:17
  Speaker 3: you say, nobody else is in a pool right.
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: Now, You're like, why are you in a pool?
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: Even though I don't even really want to be in
• 48:24
  Speaker 3: the pool. I'm looking around, like, but nobody else is
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: allowed in the pool.
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: You know, listen.
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: The way my proclivities are set up.
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: If someone invited me to the pool, I don't know,
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: I was immediately intrigued. It was like, do I need
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: to go get it in this pool?
• 48:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, hell of it, I need to go pay. It's
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: like concerts where and I'm guilty of this. I paid
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: astronomical amounts to be in the pit of a Beyonce concert,
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: and I've gone, like to several iterations like where I
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: have friends who faint, so we get seats that are seated.
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: But then if I'm going with people I know who
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: can like really fuck with the crowd, you know, we're
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: standing down there in the it. But I would argue
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: that the better experience is to be in a seat
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: at a concert like a Beyonce concert, like that a
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: close seat where you can still see her stand, dancing everything,
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: versus being in a pit crowded with people getting only
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: certain angles while everyone else can kind of see every
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: angle of the screen. Even if they can't see a
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: certain vantage point. But there's something about being down there
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: and being like, oh, Beyonce just a sweated on us,
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: but like, you know, like I'm body to body with
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: all these people. But it's exclusive and we had to
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: have all these wristbands. We came through special doors.
• 49:34
  Speaker 3: That's that's the question here. Can you even see the
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: baseball from the pool?
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: He said it was a bad you in the video.
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: He said that he was a bit obstructed, And so
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: at that point, I'm like, if I'm in the pool,
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: I feel like I got to get a workout in
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: it or something. I can't really see baseball as long
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: as hell anyway, So maybe that would keep me intrigues
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: because it's what Yeah, just go and just like that. Okay, Yeah,
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: even if I was in that pool feeling dumb as hell,
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: you're right that the social experience you talked about.
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: If I was one of the ten people who got
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: the pool gift.
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: Out of the hundred in the room, even if I
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: was not enjoying the pool, if it was lukewarm, you know,
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: I got the hot dog, which was weirdly shaped, y'all
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: see in the video. It was curvy and strange and
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: too long. Even if it was giving me the bubble
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: gust or something, I'd be in there splitch splashing, like
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: I'm having the best time in my life. Y'all ain't
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: never been in the pool. You can't even spell pool.
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: At the baseball game, I would act like it was
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: the best thing that I've ever experienced. So but but again,
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: Krimly sponsored this, and there is some irony and being
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: like this is a milk that is that Are you
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: trying to prove to me that this milk won't make
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: me fartherer poop by putting me in a pool and
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: giving me like, you know, food that definitely might upset
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: my indigestion.
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, this is sort of like yeah, they're they're running
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: like a focus group on you. Like it's sort of
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: a it's a it's a test, it's a trial.
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: Right, They're like, look, everybody in this pool drank Krimly,
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: and nobody's cramping, nobody's pooping. What this is creative? Everybody's
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: so creative. So photographs show this massive pool, right, we
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: see all of this. Angel Stadium in Anaheim had similar
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: Krimly ads, including a massive electronic sign in the outfield.
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: Krimley agreed to pay the Angels more than three point
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: four to five million dollars over five years, including rights
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: to an animated between innings race and in game commercials.
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: So they paid for the sign they also paid for
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: this like animation that would come up on the screen
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: and some kind of race. I know that they'll do
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: the race the basis thing sometimes, so I don't know
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: what the mascot is for Krimly, but here we are.
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: One year later, both the Angels and the Diamondbacks were
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: suing the company for non payment. Krimly was also sued
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: by an upstate New York farm, an Arizona landlord, and
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: multiple former employees. So it's giving that Krimlely had enough
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: money to install these you know decorations at the bottom
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: of the pool, which already existed before Krimley. And then
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: they also had enough money for the Angels to change
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: like the signage and to get the you know animations
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: going for the you know, in between innings things. But
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: they weren't actually paying the money for the sponsorships that
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: they had promised these teams. But these team owners agreed
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: to this without I've never even heard of Krimley. I
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: have not either and Krimley did something smart here. They
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: kind of put these people on a on at a
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: NET five year, a net three year, and we're like, oh,
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: y'all actually wanted the money.
• 52:44
  Speaker 2: That's crazy. But baseball teams have lawyers. They don't have
• 52:48
  Speaker 2: to make.
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: Up like you and I s yeah, yeah, yeah, oops,
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: no revenue.
• 52:54
  Speaker 3: This is this is the thing. There's like this thing
• 52:57
  Speaker 3: like the uh It's like it's like launching a spaceship
• 53:00
  Speaker 3: and being like, while it's in the air, we're going
• 53:02
  Speaker 3: to figure out how to get it down. Like that's
• 53:04
  Speaker 3: like a like a true thing that I feel like
• 53:06
  Speaker 3: NASA did at one point. They put it. They put
• 53:08
  Speaker 3: a spaceship in the air and they're like, we're gonna
• 53:09
  Speaker 3: figure out how to get it down, you know what
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: I mean. I feel like that was sort of the
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: Kremley sort of thing. They were like, we're going to
• 53:15
  Speaker 3: get all this marketing, we're going to get all this budget,
• 53:18
  Speaker 3: and then we're gonna make We're going to make a
• 53:20
  Speaker 3: product that works, and we're gonna have a lot of money.
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: And just like being paid for services, I would argue
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: going up, the going down is the important part. Like
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: coming down we really want that, Yeah, you know that's
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: a hallmark, and going in the air.
• 53:36
  Speaker 3: It's not really kind of a full a full cycle
• 53:39
  Speaker 3: unless you come down.
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: Yes, I feel like that could have been spirits of
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: rip spirit the model because they didn't have any like
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: repe like crashes or things like that when they were
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: in the air. So yeah, maybe you got to pay
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: for your seat belt. You know, maybe we got one
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: one bottle of water per oh and y'all got to
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: split it in these cubs. But at the end of
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: the day, you're gonna land, okay, And isn't that what
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: you want? So you're absolutely right. Clemley was not London zipplame.
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: This says you want to you want oh you want money?
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: Oh that's crazy. Okay. So this next part is called oops,
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: no revenue, you know how revenue?
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: Like you need that for the company.
• 54:24
  Speaker 3: I have heard that. People keep telling me that.
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, people keep telling me that too.
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: They're like, if you have a business, like you got
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: to have some revenue. And I'm like, that's crazy.
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: Explain that. So the sports news department of The New
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: York Times spoke to more than twenty former Kremley employees
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: to figure out how the company scammed the MLB teams
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: out of millions of dollars worth of stadium ads it
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: had no way of paying for since they had no revenue.
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: So remember they said that they were going to give
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: the girls fire as you know, they were going to
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: ignite them as a way of charity. Yeah, they're gonna
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: ignite the girls. So what did they actually mean. We've
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: talked about that, right, and was that even a lie?
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: Or is it a lie? Yeah? We think it's a lie. Guys.
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: So since they didn't have profits to give anyone, they
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: don't even have to follow through on their vague charitable
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: promise to ignite the girls of the US. Okay, So
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: the only person who could really answer these questions that
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: you know, the New York Times Sports department was asking
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: was CEO of Clemley.
• 55:34
  Speaker 6: Stephen de la ports and Stephen de la Portas, that
• 55:40
  Speaker 6: doesn't sound flange to me, de.
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: La Delaporte, it don't sound fronge, but okay. So Steven,
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: the CEO was hired to run Clemley by founder Kylie Schuler.
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: So this is Kylie here. She's got the blonde dist
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: of hair. I know she is in the salon daily
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: to keep those roots away yeah, because at that age,
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: no one's hair is that blonde. I feel like she
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: saw a photo of herself as like a like a
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: two year old and she said that forever.
• 56:14
  Speaker 3: This this house is also sort of horrifyingly white, like
• 56:19
  Speaker 3: there is there is a white couch, white walls, like
• 56:23
  Speaker 3: white trim, white table, and then a white porson statue
• 56:28
  Speaker 3: of a little baby boy.
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like a little angel, like a.
• 56:32
  Speaker 3: Little This is alarming.
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: Even a photo frame that she has in the front
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: of the photo to the forefront, it's a silver which
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: kind of looks white with the refraction of the light
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: on it. Photo of her family that's also in black
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: and white, Like, damn, your pictures can't even be in color.
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: She's the color is for pores.
• 56:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay. She's wearing a sort of a sort of
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: turquoise sort of top here. I feel like if she
• 56:58
  Speaker 3: really wanted to commit a white shirt would have really
• 57:02
  Speaker 3: made this sold hire picture able.
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: I bet you that Kylie probably had on some white
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: and the photographer was like, girl, the white hair and
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: a white skitch, white outfit, You're going to fade into
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: the couch.
• 57:16
  Speaker 3: The white thank you for the picture of this couch.
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: Like this couch, the Blue Eyes.
• 57:22
  Speaker 3: It's the founder of the Kremly Corporation.
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: So yeah, but obviously she's trying to demonstrate wealth because
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: you know, white in some spaces, like the actual color
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: of it, and especially in furniture and things like that,
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: it kind of distinguishes that you live a slow enough lifestyle,
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: or your kids are sequestered enough by nanny's that you
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: don't have to worry about your white getting you know,
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: tarnished or or wear and tear or stained. So I
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: get the vibe here. So, Kylie, I'm already starting to
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: think you're a scammer, just based on your home decor.
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: Like if I was to hire an interior decorator, I
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: was like, please make it look like I do crime,
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: but like like quiet luxury crime, you know, don't give me.
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: Don't give me like scarface, don't give me like drug,
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: don't give me like gold and gaudy.
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: Give me like you know, white collar.
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, crimey, evasion, yes, give me fed, give me.
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: Federal, give me the nineties, Yes.
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: Give me that ned nineties.
• 58:20
  Speaker 7: Rabb run.
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: So Stephen was hired by miss White Kylie here, who's
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: a wealthy Orange County based nonprofit executive, for Global Girls.
• 58:35
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: He was a short and stocky man in his sixties
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: with gray, slick back hair. In most employees' first interactions
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: with him, they said they found him charismatic and even trustworthy.
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: Now, being in your.
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: Sixties with gray slickback hair and kind of being short
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: and stocky is kind of giving me that, you know
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: that kind of like maybe like a nice man at
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: the airport who sees you struggle in with their bag
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: like an overhead and he like, he's not quite tall enough,
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: so you got to reach for it first. But on
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: the way down it's heavy and he'll he'll put his
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: hands under it and help you get it down. He's
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: like nice, you know. So he's the guy that highly highed.
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: But little do people know about sweet Steven. He had
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: a trail of lawsuits following him around all Redden. Also,
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: there were no photos of him online, which I don't
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: kind of mind, Like if I'm dating someone they don't
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: have an online presence, Like I mean, I need you
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: to have like a little bit of an online presence,
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: but like the kind of like presence where your Instagram
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: is private and then when you add me to it,
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: it's just like photos of landscapes or like food you
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: had on vacation. Like if I see a selfie from like,
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: I'm by So if you're a girl and I see
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: a selfie that doesn't ring any flags for me. But
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: I see too many selfies on a man's page, I'm like,
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: what's you got going on?
• 59:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Facing camera LinkedIn private Instagram is a perfect man is.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: A beautiful private Instagram. You can even have a threads
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: or an ex but if I go on your page,
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: it should be nothing but retweets. You never actually and
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: all you follow is news organizations, sports teams, and maybe
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: like a random celebrity like John Cena because he follows
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: everybody back right, Yeah, I'll take that. So people can't
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: find anything about him. The New York Times reporters like
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: couldn't find anything, and they're very good at finding stuff.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: And their employees said that they didn't have pictures of
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: their former boss either. So even the employees when it
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: was corporate picture day.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: He wasn't in it. He was probably behind the camera,
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 2: like everybody say, cheez.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: As a scammer.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: Great text, they said, Man, he's the best, right.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: He's the best. He's such a like he's given dad
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: energy like, like, you know, just like a nerdy little
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: dad energy.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: So I feel like if I find a.
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: Woman who's, you know, a CEO and I can't find
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: a picture of her online, I'm a little more suspicious.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: And if she's the one who's like, you don't what
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: we're taking a corporate photo, I'll take the photo. I'm like,
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: why you don't want to be in a photo? Girl? Way,
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: I don't want to be in a photo. So journalist
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: attempted to locate him in person at his address in Arizona.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: One ended up being a private mailbox at a UPS store.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 1: Another led to a house where Steven no longer lives.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: The Global Girls Now Foundation Kylie's Foundation. Their southern California
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: address also ended up being a private mailbox in a
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: UPS store. The listed phone number for the foundation was disconnected.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: So you got a foundation, but there's no foundation of communication.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: Oh right, Kylie. So the only way to learn about
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: Steven was through old lawsuits that were public record. So
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: here as some of his old lawsuits. He was sued
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: in two thousand and five for accepting and reselling more
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: than two million dollars worth of goods without paying a
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: partner their share a ruling from a district judge said
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: Steve even was passing invoices from his left hand to
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: his right. Yeah, so we can understand that. And apparently
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: nobody who was dealing with Stephen in this lawsuit had
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: a fake lawyer. So in two thousand and six, he
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: pled guilty to a felony for concealing property during bankruptcy
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: and was sentenced to probation for a case involved in
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: an LLC that he managed. So even when he got,
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: you know, in the court system, he was given a
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: slap on the wrist. In two thousand and eight, he
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: was accused of knowingly mismanaging the finances of Corn guitarist
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: Brian Welch.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 2: Now, why is Corn in it?
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: According to Welch's manager, in twenty eleven, Brian filed for
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: bankruptcy too. His manager says that Steven had access to
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: all of Brian's finances and racked up massive debts through
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: various business entities and basically bankrupted this Coorn.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 2: Artist. The guitarist. Now, I feel like I know Coorn.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: I can't name a song off the top of my head,
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: but if I heard one that was popular, I probably
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: know it.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 3: I cannot either, but he looks like he knows what
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 3: he's doing.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: He also this guitarist Brian from Corn, he also looks
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: like he was just very involved in guitar. Remember when
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: I brought up earlier that if a man brings out
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: a guitar, I'm running for the hills, Like I'm like, yeah,
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: they might as well be gunshots because I'm hearing the
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: saxophones like I'm house. Yeah, no, because like people who
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: are really like especially at this level, Corn is like
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: a world famous band, Like I know that man was
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: just strumming all day and all night. And look at
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: those white man dreads, how long they've gone. Like, no,
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: he's not paying attention to finances. He needs somebody else
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: to manage that.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he chose seemingly.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: Oh definitely, he chose this little, short, little cute, little
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: charity uncle to manage his funds. So Madison Square Garning
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: suthed Steven in twenty sixteen, saying he failed to pay
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: sponsorship fees while marketing Jim Beam nuts under a company
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: called Tea Brands. The suit was ultimately dismissed. So he
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: beat Madison Square Garden, which is actually a huge feat.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: I'm also a little confused here because I guess now
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: that we're in these trying new times where random businesses
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: are popping up all the time, maybe larger corporations c
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: suites are just allowing new random brands to come in
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 1: and advertise because they're like, oh, the times are changed
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: and tech big bro. Because I'm like, typically, aren't most
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: corporate sponsorships at this level like brands that are already established,
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: like Coca Cola.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 3: I feel like the first thing you should ask yourself
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 3: before putting a company on the side of your building
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 3: is how I heard of it? Have I ever heard
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 3: of this company?
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: Kyle? What's a legit? What's like a corporate brand that
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 1: we could come up with? You think we could convince
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: these people to like slap on a billboard?
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's a yeah, that's a good question. Yeah,
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 3: Like it should be something that says like scam, but
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 3: like it's like sort of obscure, you know, it's like
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 3: the scam, you know, and it's like a camera brand.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, that's it.
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: Brilliant.
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 3: The space space space space space.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: Cam, s space space cam. The future. That's the view.
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 3: The future, view the futures. I mean, I'd see that
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 3: I'd be like, go to Google. It's yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 3: we're all it's it's scam. We're already in a ruba.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 3: We're already gone.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: Wait, this is really good.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 3: It's so funny. It's so funny. All these companies now,
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 3: like yeah, like all these sort of like tech startups
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 3: because you'll see like you'll see like billboards if you're
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 3: ever walking around New York and they'll be like bimbo,
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 3: like you know, like that's like like like automating printers
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 3: until the end of time, and you're like, yes, what
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 3: I was just.
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 2: Bring infinity to reality?
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah what does that mean? Yeah, you've never
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 3: seen B t B like this. I'm like, I've never
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 3: seen B to B period at all.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well what's wrong with you?
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: Why you ain't S B B?
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, that's why you need us. So yeah, I
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: feel like Skam could definitely we could probably own a stadium.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: There's Crypto Stadium. We still call it. We're still called
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: the Staples. We're gonna call it what his mama called it,
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: but Crypto Arina, you know, and that's Sam. Yeah, Skam
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: could definitely do it. So the lawsuits mentioned that he
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: used aliases such as spelling his first name Stephen s
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: t E p h e N, so he would drop
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: the V and turn it into a pH, or his
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: last name as de la Portes, where he would add
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: an extra L m hm, so it was Delaporters like
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: d E l A p R, but he added an
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: extra L to it, so like del computer.
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 3: Okay, he was trying to get more French with it.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but it was never French in the first. But
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: you know what, that makes sense though, because think about
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: how many CEOs of companies, especially in America, they're selling
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: a brand that isn't American or it is foreign or whatever.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: It makes sense. You know, there's always a white guy
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: at the top, so they're like, this makes sense.
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 1: So his name is Tony Mcaroni and he runs the
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: right Tony Macaroni of.
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 3: I.
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, that makes sense. So, or he would register
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: his businesses under his mother's name. I like that as
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: a reverse scam instead of like you know, hope some
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: people will like put their kids on their cable bill
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: and stuff.
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 2: It's like I'm gonna put my mom on my businesses.
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 1: It's very very rare, which is also a little rude
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 1: to your mom. Because she only gave you nine months
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 1: free rent in her uterus and now you're now you're
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 1: getting her name.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 3: Now she's doing n Yeah.
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So Clemly was his latest business venture. So Clemly's
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: crimes under Steven Kremley hired employees in rapid secession, many
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: leaving stable jobs in the food and beverage industry, lured
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: by Krimly's high salaries, future company equity and their beautiful
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 1: Scottsdale office. If this don't sound like San Francisco to me, okay,
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: because these AI companies they have been running through big tech,
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: like we got a bigger salary for you, We have
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: like all of these things like come over here, you're
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 1: gonna get stock options.
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 2: You're fourk gonna be bopping.
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: So yeah, they and I also hate this for the
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: people who are working real jobs and making great salaries
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: to be tricked. So they hired Brendan Cunningham, a well
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: respected sports marketing professional, and they got him away from
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 1: the Diamondbacks. His background helped build trust in the negotiations
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 1: with the MLB teams because they were like, we know
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: Brendan from where he previously worked, and a lot of
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: startup companies will do this. They'll hire like established people
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: with relationships to gain credence. So Vice president Eddie Essner
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: left a high ranking job at Coca Cola. Eddie, Edi, No,
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: you should have talked to that polar bear first, like
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: what were you doing? But one employee described their work
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: as a ghost job and quotes saying they watched YouTube
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 1: clips for hours on end. Krimley gave that employee a
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 1: raise and double the size of their department. At its peak,
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: Krimley had more than fifty employees in its sales, it,
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: social media and more so. People came over to Kremley
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: and they were like, I'm not even working for real,
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: Like I'm just chilling and collecting a check. I wouldn't
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: question it, but at the same time I would be
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 1: on Indeed, I'll call Coca Cola back like I love y'all, Like.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 3: Please, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, buy me back, Buy me
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 3: back from this crushy job where I do nothing but
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 3: watch you.
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: Too, Because you know, if it's too good to be true,
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: it is.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 3: If you're having too much fun at your job, everybody's
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 3: about to go to jail very soon. It's like a
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 3: Hallmark role.
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 1: Yo, that's real shit. I have even with like podcasting, acting, writing, all.
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 2: I follow my dreams.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: And everyone said, if you follow your dreams, you'll never
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: work a day in your life. That is a fucking lie,
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 1: especially if you're in an entrepreneurial field. You will work
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: every day. You will work seven days a week. But
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 1: you but you love it, so you keep coming.
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 3: You you will work in your mind. When you're supposed
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 3: to be.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: Doing others, Oh my goodness, you will be somewhere having
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 1: the time of your life. I can't tell you how
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: many times I've been like on vacation with my friends,
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 1: throwing ass on the beach and I'm like also like
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: surveying the crowd.
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, what is this brand? You know what,
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna look this up. Let me put my notes
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 2: at like this is a good episode.
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: Or I'm talking to people and learning shit and I'm like,
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 1: wait a minute, I'm supposed to be having fun. Yeah, yeah,
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: you'll work forever. But I love it. I love it
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 1: so much.
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 2: But you're right, it's a if it's a clock in,
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 2: clock out type job.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: If it's the type of job where you can just
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: move to another company that does the same exact thing, yeah,
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: a little bit of it shouldn't be fun, Like I
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: want you to have fun. I want y'all have ice
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: cream socials and cover retreats. But if it's too lit,
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: it might not be legit.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 3: Well, then the thing is, it's like if everybody else
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 3: is having as much fun as I am, we're probably
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 3: going under soon, you know what I mean? Because who's
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 3: Who's who's maximizing profits for the shareholders? It's not me,
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 3: I can tell you that much.
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 1: No, it needs to be like that SpongeBob meme where
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 1: me and Patrick outside frolicking and squibvers inside the eye
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: like looking at us all, man, somebody has to be squidward.
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 1: If there's no squitze, we're in trouble. We're in trouble.
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 1: If there's no mister crabs, we're in trouble. And that's
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 1: a very millennial.
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 3: Reference for every personality. Higher you need, like a back
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 3: end engineer who's just barely yeaving on.
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 1: You know, yeah, so stressed, you know what I mean,
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 1: Like they're they're twenty four and they're going great. Yeah,
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: somebody has to do the work. So they had more
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 1: than fifty employees. They had them in sales, it, social
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 1: media and more. That wasn't enough to fill the big
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 1: Scottsdale office though, So they also have infrastructure. And I
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: think these are the great makings of a scam, because
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 1: if I walk into a building that looks like it's
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: a corporate building, it's in Scottsdale, so you know it's
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: probably like sprawling.
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 2: There's hell of rock gardens and shit.
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 1: You know it's looking legit, but he's trying to It
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: feels like Stephen was like, I need this to look
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: like a real company. So we need You can't walk
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 1: into the office and all the cubicles are empty. We
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 1: need we need a bunch of like women in tight sweaters,
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: like typing. We need phones ringing constantly. We need the
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: atmosphere of office. So Systens, a landlord, eventually filed a
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 1: lawsuit for unpaid rent. The case was settled out of
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: court in twenty twenty five. So Stephen was paying for
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: wasn't paying rather for this corporate office space. And then
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 1: eventually the corporate office people were like, where's our money,
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 1: and he was like, babes net ninety.
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 3: Ninety on red ninety. It seems like this guy never
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 3: paid for anything. It seems like the bills kept coming
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 3: and he kept turning on the shredder.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 1: He was allergic to bills. You know, he had an allergy.
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 3: It's a real condition.
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: It's very I'm also allergic to bills. I get hives
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 1: the first of the month. I'm just like, I just
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: start itching. So these are the ads, right, we're getting
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: to the end of this. Krimley's early ads featured the
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 1: so called authentic French yogurt with the Eiffel Tower in
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 1: the background. They said the company would give away one
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: hundred percent of its profits. Remember now they're saying to
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: empower girls globally, but earlier they were.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 2: Saying to ignite them.
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: They claimed the yogurt was made with the help of
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: top chefs and nutritionists, using sheep's milk to keep the
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: yogurt lactose free and keto friendly. So now we've expanded
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: into the Krimly yogurt. Remember before it was the Krimly
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 1: milk with the special cows that didn't give you gas.
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 1: Now they're doing the Krimly sheep's milk yogurt. Now I
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 1: know that as someone who is lactose in tolerant goat's
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: milk does it doesn't make you as like irritable as
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: cow's milk. So okay, and we're looking at the ad here.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 1: I mean, if I saw this ad, I would think, Look,
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: they got the little till.
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 2: Day on the e.
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: Clemly, it's Clemly, and they got the little French flag
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: colors on top of that. Whoever their graphic designer is,
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 1: I'm fucking with it, you know, like they do. It's
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 1: French as Okay, I'm gon I'm gonna take one by
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 1: and be like home we went, and then I'm gonna
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 1: go rob the loof.
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 3: Okay again, they get.
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: Robbed all the time, Kyle. These they get robbed.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 2: That's not part of their ministry.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the PR team is setting that up.
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, robbery. Yeah we need another robbery. Y. Also, we
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: can get people up in here. Yes, that's what they do.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: So early on employees traveled to New York to pitch
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 1: Madison Square Garden and they closed the deal.
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 2: Apparently no one remembered the.
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: Twenty sixteen Madison Square Garden lawsuit because remember, Steven's been
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 1: changing his name. He got his MoMA on the LC,
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 1: so they don't remember. Now that he's got a new brand.
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: It doesn't even feel familiar. And this brand looks sexy.
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: If Krimley was like, we're gonna sponsors scam goddess, I'm
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 1: like m ho ho Lasi and I love Krimly, Yeah,
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: Jod Krimely, Joe Clemelee.
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 2: And my name, my first name is French, so you know,
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 2: I feel like I could be up in here.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 1: So to be fair, Krimley did experiment with frozen yogurt
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: recipes and even landed on one that reportedly tastes pretty good,
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: but it was impossible to scale. So maybe they were
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: just sending out like packaging like individually in dry ice,
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 1: but they're just whipping it up in the kitchen like
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 1: it's thirfry. But it was not scalable. It's not in
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: retail stores. They don't have a factory. The few places
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 1: where they set up retail stands to actually sell the yogurt,
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 1: like in sports stadiums, there would often be nothing to sell,
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: which Kyle to bring it back to your beautiful song board,
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: you know, bird voice. This would still work on me
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 1: because you have this reputation of being this you know,
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 1: who am I thinking of?
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 2: Andrea Celli and.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: We got there, so you know when you were back
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 1: when you were Andre Bachelli and you were like, no, no, no,
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: can't use my pipes. Currently, not having anything to sell
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 1: to me gives like, damn Crime is so good that
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 1: it's sold out by the time I got to the stand.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 3: I have never once been able to get my hands
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 3: on kremlely because I'm not good enough for it.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 2: I'm not getting enough.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 3: I don't serve Kremley.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 1: I like that, And as someone who I know has
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: been reached out for many brand partnerships, you have significant following,
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 1: and rightfully so, I like your content, but like I
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 1: could understand like having a front facing image and then
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 1: not having anything to sell because the exclusivity of it
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 1: all is what it is. It's like when they used
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: to do those PR boxes and it would be like
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 1: those random big red boots or things that were never
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 1: for sale.
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 2: They were just marketing campaigns so you can never buy it.
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 3: There was like a thing like the guy who took
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 3: over at Hydroflask was like just start making fewer bottles,
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 3: like and then they just became like this like big collector,
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 3: like this collector obsession, and it's like their water bottles
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 3: like he literally just like applied like sneaker scars yeah,
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 3: and like people were like, well, what does it say
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 3: about me that I can't get the water bottle I want?
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, scarcity dynamics, I mean, Armes does it too. Like
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: even if you have the money for the Kelly, you know,
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 1: they might be like, oh, if you're not famous or
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: you're not that you have to get on a waiting
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 1: list or you know, diamonds do it as well. There's
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 1: so many shiny rocks in the world, but the beers
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 1: knows how to hold onto them, bitches, so you're thirsty
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 1: for them.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 3: I'm still on the list for Criminally.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: I am. Yeah, I'm and I'm a brand ambassador for Criminally.
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, yeah, they're totally empty.
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 2: They're totally empty, but I unbox them.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 1: But then when I'm unboxing it, I open it and
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: there's just a light shining on my face from the box.
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, guys, I wish I could show you
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: what's inside here, but they told me I signed an NDA.
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 1: But if you want to know, buy your own box
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 1: of Criminally and unboxing yourself. When you keep that going,
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 1: that'd be a great influencer. Scam actually, yes, or scam
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 1: and we just send people to escam and they open
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 1: the box. We just put one big ring light in
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 1: it that turns on when you open it, and people
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: are like, oh my gosh, guys they do a little
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: in look. Oh my gosh, You're never gonna people are
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 1: always asking me, you know, and yeah, we could do that.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 2: So wrap this up.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 1: The farm lawsuit, Oh Steven, these lawsuits. So in twenty
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 1: twenty two, Upstate New York based Ronnie Brook Farms entered
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 1: into a five year partnership to produce coma. The cows
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 1: are suing.
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 3: Him class actions.
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 1: The cow class action is crazy. Okay, they're coming in
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: with neck braces on. They utters like, you don't know
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: what we've been through. You do not know what we've
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 1: been through. So they had a five year partnership to
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 1: produce Clemely products. Krimly promised to farm a minimum of
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 1: forty million dollars in sales by the final.
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 2: Year end of the deal.
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 1: It seems like Stephen almost was trying to create a
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 1: real product.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 2: They had a sample.
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 1: They have now enlisted a farm, but by late twenty
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 1: twenty three, the payments stopped, threatening the farm's entire business.
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 1: So one, Oh McDonald, baby, why were you putting all
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 1: your eggs in the krimly basket. If they can bankrupt you,
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 1: you are not diversified enough in your sales of the
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: utter So Ronney Brooks sued Krimley after it fell one
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 1: hundred and ninety six thousand dollars behind on payments. I
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: like that Ronnie Brooke got in there early because Krimley
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 1: said forty million by the end of the deal, and
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: when one hundred ninety six thousand didn't show up, they
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 1: didn't just keep believing.
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 2: They went straight to the court.
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 1: The Angels and Diamondbacks have also sued Krimly for failing
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 1: to pay for the advertising the teams provided at their stadiums.
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: What's funny to me is like, sometimes you gotta cut
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: your loss because it's obvious that Kumeley.
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 2: Don't have no coin.
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 1: So y'all are probably gonna pay more in lawyer's fees
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 1: than you're gonna recoup. At this point, you might have
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: to just take an l on the klemly So sports lawsuits.
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 1: Krimlely owes the Angels four hundred thousand dollars and the
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: Diamondbacks are out three hundred and fifty eight thousand dollars.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: I also want to say that this money is it's
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 1: imaginary money because unless you paid for the signage and
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: the installment and stuff yourself, basically what you're suing for
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 1: is lost that you would have recouped from someone that
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: was a legitimate business. So technically you didn't give Krimly
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 1: any money. You gave them the opportunity, and they were
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: supposed to give you money for that opportunity. It's like
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 1: if I go do a you know, acting job or whatever,
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, actually, we're not going to pay you.
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: It's like, my services are important and expensive, and yes,
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 1: I could have been doing something somewhere else, and it's
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 1: valuable for sure, but I can't exactly say I gave
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 1: you a good or a service. Well, I guess I
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 1: gave you a service. You know why am I trying
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: to talk myself out of this?
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 3: I actually you're such a big fan.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 2: I felt like some own biles right now, the mental gymnastics.
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 1: I just tried to go there.
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 2: Oh it's not working. I got the twisted.
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 1: Free Mahomie Kremly free o FREEO. So the lawsuits also
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 1: say that Krimly was attempting to pass off third party
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: ice cream brands as their own.
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 2: Now y'all took the Agendah's logo off and put on
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 2: the crime leave.
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 1: One former marketing employee said that he was told to
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 1: create krimly labels to place on generic ice cream. The
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: employee said it was just ice cream, and they were
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 1: selling that it was authentic French frozen yogurt that was
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 1: also Keto. And nowadays, in you know, our fascist state,
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 1: we all know we really can't trust a label or
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: a logo. But if I see Keto ice cream, I'm
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 1: not taking it to the lab. I'm eating it and
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 1: feeling good. Yeah, you know what I mean. I'm like,
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: I'm in ketosis in my mind. So in twenty twenty.
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 2: Two, an email from Cunningham to the Angels said that
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 2: none of the soft served machines are working properly.
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: Now y'all pulled Themcdonald's and and and the McDonald's workers
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 1: have come out. Did you know this time they come out.
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 3: And it's broken. We just don't. We just hate doing it.
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 2: They said it's a bitch to clean.
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 3: So it's so because if someone if I should have
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 3: an ice cream and someone said no, it's a bitch
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 3: to clean, I'd say Okay, I'd be like, I get that.
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 2: You're a sweetheart.
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 3: Me.
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 2: If you say it's a bitch to clean, I'd be like, well,
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 2: I guess you're.
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 1: Gonna be cleaning the night because I because I'm having
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 1: ice cream, and I'm also gonna watch you make it
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 1: because i know you mad, so don't spitting it.
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 1: So, when there was a product to sell, it was
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 1: so thick it often broke the ballpark machines. So if
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 1: they had a machine to put the I was gonna say, splooge,
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: it's terrible the gunk in there to freeze it. It
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 1: would break the machines because they basically they' putting cement
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 1: in the ship because they don't know how ice cream works,
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 1: because they don't know how milk works. They don't know
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 1: how any of this work. So we have a whistleblower
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 1: and typically sometimes I'll call these people haters. It depends
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: on the scenario.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 3: Depends on the scenario.
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 1: But also I say this and I want to shout
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 1: out if I know you're listening. One of my fans
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 1: who came to the show and she brought me some
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 1: mushrooms too cool as fuck. This was in San Francisco,
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 1: but She told me that I always say on this podcast,
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 1: if you are a national born hater, just channel that
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 1: hate into a hater profession. So if you're a hater,
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 1: maybe get into like towing companies, or you.
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 2: Know, get into accounting.
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 1: She was like, I'm actually in school right now to
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 1: get my accounting major because I'm a pocket watcher. So
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: I want to be in people's finances. I want to
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 1: audit people. And I was like, I love that because
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 1: even though it is a hater job and I might
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 1: be mad at if you're auditing me, at the end
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 1: of the day, it's a necessary job.
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 2: We wouldn't function without haters.
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 1: Everybody be having too good of a time, like you said, Kyle,
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 1: and then we're all going under.
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 2: We need the haters.
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 3: We need a little acid. We need just a little
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 3: acid in our society. You know, every dish.
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 2: Yes, it brightens it, it brightens.
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 3: It's just a little bit. I'm like, I understand now.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 3: So.
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: By July twenty twenty three, the lack of revenue remember
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: oops and no revenue resulted in major layoffs. A whistleblower
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 1: started sending mass emails to company employees from anonymous accounts.
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 1: In addition, to including embarrassing allegations about Krimly executives. The
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 1: whistleblower said they wanted to expose the reason for the layoffs,
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 1: tying them to Stevens's record of fraud. So somebody got
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: Steven's real name and then they went in an anonymous
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 1: email and started gathering information. And that's what this whole
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 1: show is about, gathering information and sharing it with one another.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 1: That's how we keep each other safe. So I like
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 1: this hater a lot avoir Crimally. This is the end here.
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 1: Krimerally is now dissolved, leaving many former employees searching for
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 1: new jobs that they were poached from high end jobs.
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 2: I know homeboy was calling Coca Cola back.
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 1: Like please.
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 3: Listen, listen.
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 1: I know somebody was calling like doctor Peppa, Babe, man
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 1: hi yah me back do do do?
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 2: But so it's dissolved and it left all these people unemployed.
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 1: They abandoned the Scottsdale office and left everything behind. Look
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 1: at how they.
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 2: Left this behind. It looks like they were running from
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 2: the face.
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 1: There's boxes everywhere. Did they trash it when they left
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 1: it behind?
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 2: I feel like you could have just walked down.
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 3: There's like a tipped over a table that looks like
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 3: it's been like set on fire and demolished.
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 1: Yes, I'm sure the people who own this office space
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 1: were like, what the helly, but it's given a fans
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 1: came and you flipped the table over.
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that one.
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 2: Dave Chappelle would be where he's playing George Bush and he's.
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 1: Like the water over just runs. That's what they did.
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 1: Multiple employees said that they were never technically terminated, only furloughed,
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 1: and as it was result, never received Severn's Ooh, that's
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 1: a mean lick. People have families, people, you know, they
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 1: need their money. Meanwhile, Stephen, what do you think Stephen did?
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 1: This is the last point in this episode. What do
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 1: you think Stephen did?
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 3: I think Stephen drove Film and Louise Style off a
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 3: cliff in his car. Oh, Kyle, is that true?
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 1: Stephen is what I call a serial entrepreneur.
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, I know he works in the Trump administration.
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 3: Now he's right. Probably he's the head of advertising for
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 3: the White House.
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 1: Stephen became the new CEO for Clean Bottling Co. And
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 1: entered an agreement with Alkaline eighty eight in late twenty
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 1: twenty three to produce products for the brand. A financing
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 1: company separate like a separate bottling company, and an employee
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 1: are already suing Alkaline eighty eight.
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 2: Stephen said, rinse repeat.
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 3: He said, listen, players gotta play. I just you know,
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 3: he's a he's a dog man. He's it's his nature.
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 1: And you know what, maybe it's I feel like Steven's charisma,
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 1: even though I haven't seen his face, it's his crimes.
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 1: Charisma has jumped through the phone from me, and I
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 1: understand how he's not in prison.
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the fact that he scams Madison Square Garden and
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 3: then he was like I got a new company, can
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 3: I come back? And they were like, yeah, you little
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 3: you little scamp, We love you.
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 1: And maybe they never saw his face either, because maybe
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 1: he's not a line.
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 2: He's not showing his size.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 1: He's not in the pictures, so maybe they were having
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 1: zoom calls and his camera was always off.
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 3: He's sort of like a faceless entity. He's like a
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 3: he's like he's like a scam assassin. He's he's in
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 3: a scams and like he just sort of like appears
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 3: and disappears after the job is.
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 2: Done, right, he gets his money and he disappears.
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh man.
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 1: He's not a good guy because a lot of people
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 1: are unemployed and they didn't get hate and they didn't
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 1: get severance.
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 3: And the greatest crime is that so many people who
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 3: were in keytosis became out of ketosis or even worse,
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 3: a lot of people who are lactose intolerant.
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 2: Oh no, they were on the toilet.
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 3: Oh no, they something happens, Something happens.
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 1: Did he induce on people?
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 3: He's a super villain, It's what he is. He is.
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 1: Well, final thoughts from you, Kyle, What do you think
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 1: about this scam? Do you love it? Do you hate it?
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 1: Is it?
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 2: Or you could be somewhere in between?
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 3: You know, Nuance, I'm conflicted. I'm conflicted because a part
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 3: of me knows it's not real, but I still feel
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 3: like I wish I had krembly because so few people
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 3: got to have it, And a part of me is, yeah,
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 3: a part of me is like, you know, this guy sucks.
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 3: This guy, you know is terror I think that I
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 3: do think the greatest crime is that against the lactose intolerance. Yeah.
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 3: That that's a community that's been through quite a bit.
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 3: Everywhere they go, people make fun of them. And I
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 3: think that those are the people who I feel the
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 3: worst for, and I think that they will have their
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 3: retribution on on Stephen, whether on this earth or or
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 3: or in heaven or hell.
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they have to. I hope it's real, gassy and health.
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 3: It's good, it's it's gonna be the it's gonna be horrible.
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 2: Let in tolerance.
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 1: Some of the strongest soldiers, they literally have to walk
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 1: around with them fart pills.
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 2: Lady, imagine being at a nice restaurant and you're.
• 1:30:31
