00:00:00.000 What's up guys, it's Andy Priscilla and this is the show for the realists, say goodbye
00:00:20.860 to the lies, the fakeness and delusions of modern society and welcome to motherfucking
00:00:25.140 reality. Guys, today we've got Q and AF and as a reminder, if you get something out of
00:00:31.980 the show, if you enjoy the show, if you learn something, if it answered a question, if it
00:00:36.420 helped you navigate something, if it gave you a new perspective, made you laugh, give
00:00:41.020 us a share. Okay. We don't run ads for the show. I don't run ads on the show. The reason
00:00:46.020 I don't do that is because it's annoying as fuck. So in return for not doing that, I would
00:00:52.400 just appreciate if you would help us grow the show. With that being said, DJ, what's
00:00:58.520 up? What's going on, baby? What are you liking? What we got today? As always, guys, got three
00:01:03.100 questions for Andy. You guys, please email your questions in to askandy at andyfasella.com
00:01:09.720 and with that being said, let's get right into it. All right. Question number one. Andy, when's
00:01:16.620 the right time to reward yourself? Right? Like I've been waiting to reward myself. I have
00:01:20.460 a business. I'm at a place where I stacked up a good amount of win streaks, right? My
00:01:25.820 people are good. My family's good. When is the right time to reward yourself? And how
00:01:31.340 do you do that? I reward myself every single day. I get up, I work my ass off. I do my
00:01:40.120 work. I go work out again. And those are rewards. Okay. I like to reward myself through challenging
00:01:48.900 myself. I like to reward myself through growth. I like to reward myself through getting better.
00:01:54.400 I think those are the proper rewards. All right. Investments into yourself so that you can invest
00:02:00.040 into others. And when you do that, you don't have to worry about rewarding yourself because the
00:02:04.920 rewards are in abundance. They come to you without you really even thinking about it.
00:02:10.280 Um, now I'm assuming that is a question regarding, uh, material rewards. Um, look, man,
00:02:19.780 it's a personal preference. What you need to be rewarded with, you know, I would just say this,
00:02:26.820 a lot of people reward themselves for doing shit they should have been doing anyway. Okay. Like you,
00:02:32.460 you go out and you know, you work hard for a week on your diet and then you go, you say,
00:02:37.920 you're going to reward yourself with beer and fucking pizza. Like what the fuck are you
00:02:42.640 rewarding yourself for? You're supposed to take care of your body. You're supposed to take care
00:02:45.760 of your brain. You're supposed to take care of those things. Um, you know, a lot of people want
00:02:49.800 to flex online and buy shit they can't afford so that people that they don't even know will admire
00:02:54.820 them. Guys, that ship has sailed. You know, people know what fake is. They know that, you know,
00:03:00.460 like it's cool for a day and then you got to pay for it. So there's the repo man. Yeah. So like,
00:03:05.540 you know, rewarding yourself, I don't know, like in the early stages of business, I think it's
00:03:10.660 important because you got to remind yourself that you're working for a better life. And I understand
00:03:16.080 that, but, uh, you know, the mentality of rewarding yourself seems to take precedent over
00:03:22.200 the mentality of actually doing the work on a daily basis and becoming excellent at that. And
00:03:28.000 the thing is, is that when you become excellent at everything that you do and you take your life
00:03:33.000 serious and you look at just the ability to get up and live healthy and execute and do
00:03:37.720 build and contribute and be better as an actual reward, the material rewards just come, you know?
00:03:44.820 Um, I don't sit here and think about when I'm going to buy my next car or fucking house or watch.
00:03:50.700 Like I shop for that shit constantly. I, I, there's not a day that goes by that I'm not looking online.
00:03:56.040 And when, you know, I see something I like, I get it, but that's the result of, you know, 20 plus
00:04:02.880 years of putting in, uh, the, the highly focused efforts on myself, my mind, my mentality, my body,
00:04:11.220 uh, making investments in my team and my companies. And at the end of the day, the more I give there,
00:04:18.240 the more the rewards come. So I would be real, uh, cautious listening to anyone who has an actual
00:04:26.020 like answer, like, Oh, this is when you reward yourself. You're going to know, okay. You're
00:04:31.340 going to feel like it's time. You're going to know it's right. And, uh, you know, one time I can
00:04:37.380 remember like, I don't know, 10 years ago, 12 years ago, I was looking at a BMW 750. And, uh, you know,
00:04:45.640 at the time that was a huge car for me, like that it was 130 or 40 grand. And, you know, I had never
00:04:52.320 owned anything like that. And I remember asking my dad, the same question, like, how do you know
00:04:56.820 when it's time to do something like that? And his answer was, you'll know, like, and that, I think
00:05:02.340 that's very true. I think you just know, you know, um, I, I do think a lot of younger people reward
00:05:10.220 themselves in opportune times, you know, when you, when you could be using those funds and that effort
00:05:15.760 towards building and building and building and building. Um, but I'm going to tell you, and this is
00:05:20.980 the truth, you know, uh, being able to walk into a building like this, you know, that's one of the
00:05:26.740 most incredible facilities on the planet for a corporate headquarters. Uh, I'd put it up against
00:05:31.480 literally anybody else's, uh, you know, we may not be Google or Facebook, but you know, we'll get
00:05:38.440 there. Uh, that's the reward, man. The reward is coming in here every day and seeing what you built,
00:05:44.100 seeing people, uh, who work for you, uh, accelerate their lives. They have them buy new cars and move
00:05:50.140 into new houses and build careers. That's the ultimate reward, man. And I think that, uh, you
00:05:55.460 know, it takes perspective to recognize that. Um, but you'll never get there if you reward yourself
00:06:00.020 at the inopportune times, uh, in the inappropriate times in the beginning, you'll never get to the real
00:06:04.620 reward. So I'd be cautious with rewards. I would live below your means. Um, you know, a lot of people
00:06:11.200 feel like they got to flex and pretend like they're successful. Uh, you know, I saw someone online the
00:06:18.560 other day who said, uh, you know, what do I, what would you rather have money or notoriety? And I
00:06:23.760 mean, like I could tell you, cause I've had both, you want money period. Uh, cause money solves a
00:06:29.480 fuck ton of problems. All right. So it, you know, you're, you're 23 years old and you buy a fucking
00:06:35.220 hurricane because you think you're fucking flexing on the internet. Real motherfuckers like me are
00:06:39.660 laughing at you. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Like, I'm, I'm like, you're an idiot. Right. You know,
00:06:44.020 uh, I see 27 year old guys with 15 cars and they're all leased and they're this and that,
00:06:49.620 and they're pretending. And to me, I just, I mean, to me that discredits them. You know what I'm
00:06:55.000 saying? Like I look at someone like that and say, well, shit, that guy's probably not going to be
00:07:00.500 somebody I want to do business with cause their priorities are out of whack. You know, now if the
00:07:04.720 guy's 40 years old and he's fucking put in his time or 30 years old and he's put in his time and 0.98
00:07:09.940 he's built something that's undeniably like successful, uh, do whatever the fuck you want.
00:07:15.460 Sure. The problem is a lot of people just do whatever the fuck they want before they can
00:07:18.840 afford to do whatever the fuck they want. And it keeps them from ever experiencing the real rewards
00:07:23.220 of business, which is not things that come back to you. It's the things that you contribute. And
00:07:28.320 I mean, bro, like I get to come in here and literally a day doesn't go by where somebody hasn't
00:07:33.920 bought a new fucking car or a new house. I mean, it's every day now, you know, we've got 300,
00:07:39.040 not just like basic cars. Like no, like drive through a fucking parking lot. Like it's fucking
00:07:43.200 pimping. And I take pride in that, you know, and, uh, the, and none of these people are scraping by
00:07:48.800 like they're building real careers. And so, you know, um, I think the perspective changes
00:07:55.520 as you age and as you become more mature, but my, and look, dude, I'm not saying you can't buy a nice
00:08:01.180 car when you're young, you know, sometimes you got to feel good. And sometimes that's the only thing
00:08:06.380 that's going to make you feel good, you know? So I have, uh, I have, uh, an understanding of it
00:08:11.520 from all sides, but I would just be cautious to not overly reward yourself because when you do
00:08:16.860 it, it straps your ability to truly grow. And when you can't truly grow, um, you never really get to
00:08:22.560 the main reward, which is what you could do for other people. So that's fire. That's fire. Great
00:08:28.260 question. And, and, and, and it actually great answer. I mean, but it actually leads into this next
00:08:32.560 question because you talked about, you know, these day-to-day rewards that you have.
00:08:36.900 Yeah. Uh, and this question basically is asking it like, I mean, you talk a whole lot and I know
00:08:42.100 it because I'm with you every day. There, there is, when we, you talk about fucking consistency,
00:08:45.740 right? Like, yeah, there ain't no one more consistent than me. I've never met anybody.
00:08:49.680 No. Right. I've never seen a fucking video. There's not a motherfucker listening to this show.
00:08:54.220 I don't care how much money you make. I don't care who the fuck you are. I don't care what you do. 1.00
00:08:58.320 Yeah. You will not, you, you are not, you're not working harder than me and you're not more
00:09:02.520 consistent. Yeah. Period. Yeah. And that's it. And anybody in this fucking building will attest to
00:09:06.960 that. 1000%. But how does that not get boring? Like, that's the question. It doesn't get boring
00:09:11.480 because I know what I just said is fact and it gets me excited when I'm out there and it's fucking 0.93
00:09:16.180 18 degrees outside. And I think of all the people trying to come and take my fucking market share
00:09:20.820 my lunch. And I know that they've got their feet kicked up, uh, smoking a fucking cigar. I laugh.
00:09:26.700 You know what I'm saying? That's the reward. The reward is I'm widening the gap between me and them
00:09:31.720 while they think I'm up here fucking off. Right. You see what I'm saying? So like,
00:09:35.780 I don't even show all the work I do because I don't want them to see all the work I do
00:09:40.480 because I want them to continue to smoke cigars and put their fucking feet up and get their fucking
00:09:45.220 asses beat. So that's how I like to live. You know, a lot of people don't understand that. That's not
00:09:50.660 boring. Yeah. It's exciting as fuck. Dude, when I work through an entire dude, it's a different
00:09:56.060 mentality, man. Most people just ain't going to ever have it. I would suggest trying to cultivate
00:10:00.140 it, but you know, it's going to take a long time for you to cultivate that kind of mentality.
00:10:05.460 It's a fucking pure competitive animalistic mentality of like, I'm going to fucking win
00:10:11.120 no matter what the fuck it takes. And I am real. I'm not smart, dude. I'm not a smart human. I'm not
00:10:16.420 an exceptional human. There's nothing about me that's special. I just know that the only way that I can win
00:10:22.520 is by working like that. It's the only way it's the only way I know how to win. So like, I don't
00:10:27.480 have like these other motherfuckers that smoke cigars and fucking, you know, we see them doing 1.00
00:10:32.140 all kinds of different shit every day and not, you know, maybe they have more talent than me.
00:10:36.960 Maybe they have more skills than me. Maybe they have more resources. Uh, but the only thing I can
00:10:41.720 control is that they can't fucking work harder than me and they're not going to be more consistent. 0.73
00:10:46.440 I wake up every single fucking day and do the exact same shit. And I've done that for years
00:10:53.500 and years and years. And that's why my life looks the way it does. And I'm not willing to
00:10:58.900 fuck with that. So why would I fucking change that? You know, a lot of people say, Oh, dude,
00:11:02.520 you need to take a vacation. Why would I live a little bit? Why the fuck would I take a vacation
00:11:05.940 from this life? You know what I'm saying? Like I, my every day is a vacation. I live at a fucking
00:11:11.100 resort. Right. You know what I'm saying? Like, dude, my, my fucking house is like a fucking
00:11:15.040 resort. It is like I live in a resort. Like every day I do whatever the fuck I want, which
00:11:21.520 happens to be working harder to get better at winning. And I like it. Yeah. So, you know,
00:11:26.440 while you're trying to take a vacation from your fucking shitty existence, because you won't put 0.99
00:11:30.380 in the time or the work or the fucking years that it takes to build, I'm over here getting better 0.72
00:11:35.540 because I built my own fucking oasis in my life. You know what I'm saying? So, you know, it's not
00:11:41.540 boring. It's exciting as fuck. Dude, what's not exciting about walking in here and seeing young 1.00
00:11:45.700 men and women fucking build careers? Yeah. What's not exciting about coming in here every day and
00:11:49.540 getting better? What's not exciting about kicking ass in business? What's not what's what's fucking
00:11:54.400 what's not exciting? Right. Like y'all motherfuckers got your priorities fucked up. That's the problem. 1.00
00:11:59.380 You want to go out Thursday night through fucking Sunday and party with your fucking loser
00:12:03.900 ass friends who ain't going to do shit in their life. And then you want and you think that 0.75
00:12:07.940 I'm bored? Motherfucker. That's the most boring shit you could ever fucking do.
00:12:12.160 How many times you done it? A thousand? Two thousand? Five thousand? You already did it.
00:12:19.560 How about dedicating and getting locked in on your own personal development, your own building
00:12:24.380 so that you could create something that you don't have to escape from? You know, so like just because
00:12:30.320 you think that would be boring for you doesn't mean it's boring for me. I talk to Gary Vee about this
00:12:35.300 all the time. Gary Vee works his fucking ass off. That shit that he says is not fucking
00:12:39.800 bullshit. He likes to work from fucking when he wakes up to when he goes to bed and that's
00:12:44.600 what he likes. And people criticize him for that. No, he fucking loves it. You motherfuckers
00:12:51.500 don't understand. There's people out there like us that love that shit. We love it. We love
00:12:57.920 it. If I didn't have it, the fuck would I do, dude? You know what I do. I lay in bed all
00:13:02.420 then. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So, you know, my fucking question back to that is why is your
00:13:09.520 life so boring? That's real. Don't you get fucking bored? That's real. You know what
00:13:15.360 I'm saying? Yeah. Like, fuck, dude. Yeah. Motherfucker's been listening to too much liberal
00:13:19.120 crazy pussy shit. Just being honest, dude. It's funny because we were just talking about 1.00
00:13:23.500 this. I think it's weakness, bro. It is. This is fucking weakness. It's been perpetuated
00:13:27.780 and installed into our society over the course of the last 25 years and everybody wants to
00:13:33.280 fucking cry and bitch and whine about all the shit they don't have and the life they 1.00
00:13:37.640 don't have when they're not even capable of operating that life. Like, if you took an
00:13:41.760 average motherfucker and put him in my seat right now, he would crumble in a fucking hour. 0.99
00:13:46.300 Just walking through the fucking door. Yes. So, you guys, dude, it's true. It's real. Yeah.
00:13:51.180 And you guys think you're ready for that. You have to go through this process of building
00:13:55.480 and learning and fucking failing and then learning some more and building again and then failing. 0.92
00:14:01.560 And that process takes a lifetime and there's nothing boring about it. It's exciting as fuck.
00:14:06.420 Are you going to get kicked in the nuts a whole bunch of times? Yeah. But there's a whole lot of
00:14:11.160 times where you're not getting kicked in the nuts. And I can promise you that you're getting kicked in
00:14:15.880 the nuts more than I'm getting kicked in the nuts. I purposefully get kicked in the nuts so that I'm
00:14:21.020 stronger, so that I'm more equipped, so that I'm better. I look for opportunities to hurt me.
00:14:25.960 I look for opportunities to fucking put myself through shit because I know when I come out the
00:14:30.740 other side, I either learn something new or I got fucking stronger. And that's exciting. That's not
00:14:36.220 boring. Boring is living how you motherfuckers live. Okay. So that's how that's my take on it.
00:14:43.580 No, that's real. I was saying we were just talking about this the other day because I mean,
00:14:47.180 like literally guys, like, I mean, every fucking day it's fucking copy and paste. Right. But and
00:14:52.180 I mean, it's been fucking what two years. We probably I did have three years before I knew
00:14:56.320 you. Yeah. But what I'm saying is, you know, the times that that we do get out of that. Right.
00:15:01.960 We still have a fucking good time. And guess what? We're still getting shit done. When you guys saw
00:15:05.580 me up in Utah and I'm shooting machine guns and shit. Guess what? All my work got done that day.
00:15:10.340 Yep. Not all of it. Okay. All of it. All my work gets done. It just does.
00:15:17.180 Okay. And like, dude, there's an unrealistic expectation that, you know, the government's
00:15:25.740 going to somehow come in and make people successful or improve your life, bro. They're
00:15:29.740 only going to take from you. They're only going to push you down. The only person that can save
00:15:34.460 you and build your life is fucking you, man. And that's not going to change no matter what 0.98
00:15:38.880 government trends happen, no matter what they try to install, no matter what. Okay. You're
00:15:45.340 only going to win if you fucking make yourself win. And that's a decision. And it's a decision
00:15:50.280 that you make every single day when you open your fucking eyes. And you know, it's certainly
00:15:54.680 not boring. Like I, to me, that's a, it's like a ridiculous question. Like, bro, I fucking
00:16:00.960 have the coolest life ever. Yeah. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like literally like, how
00:16:06.280 do you get bored? What the fuck are you talking about? Boring? Yeah. Yeah. That's two for
00:16:12.700 two guys. That's two for two. All right. Final question, Andy. So, uh, we, you, you've hinted
00:16:18.740 at this a few times, right? And I got, I had a couple of questions on this, uh, bro. Nothing
00:16:23.080 makes me happier, dude. Then when I see, when I know I'm out fucking working everybody like
00:16:29.040 they don't, people don't understand that about me. Like, like, dude, you guys see me out
00:16:32.880 there when it's fucking minus 18 degrees in the fucking snow and you think, God, that 0.91
00:16:37.400 must suck. I promise you. I got a huge fucking smile on my face the whole fucking time. You
00:16:42.000 know why? Cause I flipped through Instagram while I'm doing it and I'm watching what my
00:16:46.580 competitors are doing. I'm watching what the people who think they're going to beat me
00:16:50.060 are doing. And guess what? None of them are doing that. Not a single fucking one, not a single
00:16:54.920 fucking time. That's fucking exciting. You could actually see yourself getting better
00:16:59.600 in real time. That's how I like to live, dude. That's fucking real. Yeah. Shit. That's
00:17:04.820 deep. Uh, all right. Last question. And so I had a few questions on this. You, you, you've
00:17:11.960 hinted at this a few times. Can you tell us the Andy, the carpet cleaner story? Got a few
00:17:18.760 people asking. Yeah. Yeah. Like what? Tell us about it. Yeah. So, so, uh,
00:17:24.920 you know, when we started business, um, we didn't have anything, you know, we, Chris
00:17:31.500 and I started our business with 12 grand. First day we sold $7. Second day we sold $0. Third
00:17:37.000 day we sold $23. Uh, first three years we, we made zero like zero. We worked at bars and
00:17:43.540 gyms and shit like that to keep the company open. Well, the company, it was one story, keep
00:17:48.180 the store open. Um, you know, six years in we, we had the opportunity to, uh, grow our
00:17:55.340 company and we, we added some stores and 10 years in we had six stores. And, um, first
00:18:00.680 form was just kind of like this idea that we had started working on. And, uh, you know,
00:18:07.680 we both weren't making any money. You know, our dream was always to make money. We weren't
00:18:11.800 making it like you're not, we, I made 58 fucking thousand dollars my first 10 years in business
00:18:16.240 total. So like we weren't making money. Not only were we not making money, I could have
00:18:21.000 made more money working at motherfucking McDonald's. No bullshit. Okay. So, um, so we, we started
00:18:28.420 looking for other things to do and Chris was going to, uh, wanted to go to, uh, OCS school
00:18:33.620 in the military to become a pilot. All right. So he was getting the eye surgery and the shit
00:18:37.960 that he needed to do to get that, to get that taken care of. And, uh, you know, I was basically
00:18:43.720 exploring other opportunities and my dad and I, uh, my dad was looking to get into business
00:18:49.960 back into business at time. And so we decided that we were going to look into the Sears carpet
00:18:54.660 cleaning franchise. And, um, we went through, uh, the whole discovery process and, you know,
00:19:02.540 discovery day where they show you everything about the franchise. And, um, it went so
00:19:07.920 far as to, I went to Columbus, Ohio and, uh, did the onsite training. We went to a couple
00:19:15.300 of people's houses and clean their carpets and shit. Um, just, you know, like I'm shadowing
00:19:19.720 a real crew. And, uh, during the training, um, I threw my back out like real bad. Like
00:19:27.660 I had to go to the hospital there. Then I had to fly back. Then I was in bed for like 30
00:19:31.640 days here. Like I couldn't fucking move. Yeah. And, um, during that time, you know, we had
00:19:37.200 a lot of time to talk about, uh, this, how we're going to make this franchise into, you
00:19:42.360 know, uh, uh, good company and all these things. Right. Um, so the guys, we came down to closing
00:19:49.080 and we signed the papers to fucking, to, to become the franchisee. We got home. Uh, my
00:19:55.880 dad and I were having a beer and we started talking about it. And, and my dad was like,
00:19:59.880 I don't know if I feel right about this. And I'm like, I don't either. I feel weird about
00:20:03.120 it. So we called the fucking guy up who we just signed the papers an hour ago. And, uh,
00:20:09.260 my dad said, where are you at? And he's like, Oh, I was here in whatever hotel. And he's
00:20:13.360 like, what room? And the guy told us, we drove over to the fucking hotel room. We took the
00:20:17.560 fucking papers. We ripped them up. And, uh, and I went back to work fucking selling supplements.
00:20:23.560 And so I was about fucking one inch away from becoming Andy, the motherfucking carpet cleaner,
00:20:28.660 which I would have dominated at that too. But the point is none of you would know who the fuck I
00:20:33.500 was. And so that's how, that's how close you can come to being completely derailed off of what it
00:20:41.140 is you're supposed to do. And the reason that we decided to, to, to basically, uh, you know,
00:20:49.960 cancel the deal like that, like literally after signing it was because dude, we realized like, dude,
00:20:55.640 I'm, I'm, you know, I'm, I'm not, I'm not made to fucking operate within somebody else's system.
00:21:01.120 I'm made to create systems. And we, we talked about that and you know, so that's how close it
00:21:06.960 came. It came real fucking close. And, and, and that's wherever the story picks up where Chris and
00:21:11.820 I had that conversation where we're like, you know, Hey man, and this led to a big revelation in our
00:21:16.740 business. Um, because Chris and I then had a conversation, uh, after that where, you know,
00:21:24.820 I was like, Hey, look, dude, uh, we're not doing this thing. So I think we should, you know,
00:21:30.200 think about how we could do our business. And we had a conversation and, and we both agreed. We're
00:21:35.560 like, say, Hey, you know, we might not become, you know, as wealthy as we wanted to become. And we
00:21:40.280 might not become these, you know, rich baller dudes that we always thought we would be. Uh, but it's
00:21:46.260 pretty cool helping people. And, you know, every once in a while over that first 10 years, uh, we would
00:21:53.380 have someone come in, you know, and they lost a hundred, you know, 50, 60, a hundred, 200 pounds.
00:21:59.220 Right. And they come in and, and you see them and they're fucking crying or giving you a big hug,
00:22:04.020 or they're giving you a genuine thank you. Uh, a lot of people like made us food, like just all kinds
00:22:08.880 of super, uh, really impactful, appreciative people who appreciated what we did for them. And we just had
00:22:15.740 a discussion like, okay, well we might not ever be wealthy, but instead let's just focus on,
00:22:21.640 on creating that result as much as possible. And that's when our business changed. That's where
00:22:25.980 we started growing a hundred percent every single year. Um, that's where it got fun. That's where it
00:22:31.420 got fulfilling. And by the way, that's where the money came in. So we went from nothing to,
00:22:38.300 to literally, you know, crushing it in a very short amount of time by just shifting our focus from
00:22:43.840 ourselves, making us money to providing the solution in the best possible way. And that's what we
00:22:49.860 continue to do when we have board meetings here, uh, in our companies, whether, no matter which
00:22:54.620 one it is, the conversation is never, we have to sell more. It's okay. How do we provide a better
00:23:00.000 result? How do we provide a better experience? How do we innovate these things? And so the perspective
00:23:04.840 is, is not from what can we get? It's always, how can we contribute more understanding that if we
00:23:10.780 contribute more, we'll sell more. Right. So that's, that's, uh, that's how that happened. And,
00:23:17.520 you know, it was probably one of the closest, uh, definitely the closest thing I ever came to,
00:23:24.140 to being derailed from, I mean, like, dude, we were fucked. Like we signed the papers. Right.
00:23:28.760 You know what I'm saying? I thought that guy was like, man, what the fuck? Oh yeah, he was,
00:23:31.700 he was, he didn't understand it. And he was definitely, cause we weren't nice about it. Cause
00:23:36.000 he was trying to, he was trying to, uh, like be like, Oh, well you already signed it. Well, look,
00:23:41.160 motherfucker, do you really want someone in your organization that doesn't want to be in it?
00:23:44.500 Yeah. You know what I'm saying? So we just took the fucking papers from him and that was that.
00:23:48.560 And we never heard from him again. So, um, it is what it is. Yeah. So that's how that happened.
00:23:55.460 That's a great story. I love that. I don't think anybody's heard the full ones. I think that was
00:23:59.900 the first time. I don't think so. Yeah. I think I might've told it some many years ago on MFCEO,
00:24:03.980 but I can't remember. Yeah. Well, that's fucking awesome, man. That's three for three. My books.
00:24:07.960 Well, dude, it's always three for three. I pay your fucking paycheck. You're right.
00:24:10.840 What's it going to be? One for three. What's it going to be like? I ain't nobody here listening
00:24:16.040 is fucking stupid. These are smart people, bro. Touche. Yeah.
