00:01:56.860
we'll explain why he's here sure i'm i'm an advertising lawyer i focus on e-commerce and social
00:02:02.600
media marketing issues so basically if you sell stuff online i help you keep the money you make rather
00:02:08.440
than give it over to a plaintiff's lawyer or the government or whoever else might sue you so
00:02:12.980
yeah um my background's in litigation i try to help people stay out of it more now
00:02:17.580
and uh i represent brand owners agencies and influencers and other talent so robert does a
00:02:26.240
lot of cool shit on the internet and i've learned a lot just from watching your page bro uh i appreciate
00:02:31.920
the content you put out especially as a company that works heavily with influencers it's been very
00:02:36.700
helpful if you guys aren't following him you should follow him what's your instagram my instagram is my
00:02:42.220
full name so it's robert freund and then law at the end just one word so that's that's f-r-e-u-n-d
00:02:49.260
okay so guys if you own a company and you have influencers which basically all of you do now um this
00:02:56.900
is a good guy to follow because he's the only guy out there that i've seen putting out super valuable
00:03:01.600
free information in the favor of brands and influencers uh and you know not charging for it i think
00:03:07.760
it's really brilliant what you do you know you give away enough information to make yourself the
00:03:12.200
authority and then pick up the customers so it's really cool uh to watch you do it it's really
00:03:16.940
appreciated uh but more so uh we become friends talking just regular life and just talking about
00:03:22.940
uh cars mainly and uh and you know success and the things that we normally talk about when the world
00:03:29.760
isn't falling apart so we're excited to have you as part of the show bro yeah it's been awesome to
00:03:34.380
check out the facility i'm so impressed by this place like i knew i was going to be impressed but
00:03:38.200
i i didn't realize quite the level that you were on with everything dj was showing me all the details
00:03:42.880
like the american flag is the size of your first office yeah and that photo out there is in the
00:03:47.880
place where you're standing in the photo and it really uh impressed me that those kind of details
00:03:53.400
are what helps the rest of the business flourish at the level you're at and yeah i'm just really
00:03:58.400
impressed oh no dude hey look you know uh here's the thing about us is we're we're not very smart
00:04:05.160
okay so what we do is we try to make it up with being very diligent about everything that we do and
00:04:11.620
uh so far it works pretty pretty good and hopefully our customers appreciate it um but yeah man so what
00:04:19.120
are we going to talk about today bro yeah uh i mean so you handle a lot with influencers and so
00:04:24.040
before i before the show you guys remember miss cleo oh i do call me now yeah yeah yeah so we were
00:04:29.800
just talking i mean i forget even how we got on the fucking subject but did you know that during the
00:04:35.380
two years that miss cleo was running she was averaging 24 million dollars a month in income no way she
00:04:44.140
made 600 million dollars in two years on her overnight ads on her call me now shit no shit yeah that's
00:04:50.740
what happened to miss cleo so she died in 2016 oh she did she i had no idea did she see it coming
00:05:01.480
but the thing is man she she so when when she passed in 2016 her net worth was only 1.5 million
00:05:09.360
and so i just thought it'd be a nice entry conversation to this i mean you handle with
00:05:14.880
with influencers a lot you guys handle influencers a lot like how do you guys like one for me i can't
00:05:19.820
even comprehend how you go from 600 million dollars and then 10 years later you have nothing
00:05:25.420
right like how does that even happen like how does that happen about this we literally just
00:05:30.280
talked about this i can answer that real simple all right the more you make the more you're going to
00:05:36.920
spend all right and if you got bad habits we talk about this with our because we deal with a lot of
00:05:41.580
people who you know quite frankly in the beginning when they started with us they weren't making very
00:05:46.500
much money and now some of them make millions of dollars in a year and you know those bad habits
00:05:51.720
just become uh exacerbated and exaggerated over time yeah so like you know if you if you're running
00:05:57.620
your bank accounts uh you know to zero right now it really if you if you make 10 million dollars a
00:06:04.400
year you're going to run it to zero you know that's why financial responsibility is such an important
00:06:09.140
skill to learn um same reason why we see all these nfl guys get these big chunks while they play
00:06:16.120
you know and and and i know from for sure that you know they have the nfl rookie symposium but they
00:06:21.640
don't really teach these guys much they don't teach them how to be financially responsible or um how to
00:06:26.600
manage their money and then they get all these people coming at them uh who pretend to be experts
00:06:31.080
as you know we're going to invest this money in this and bro look i'm pretty experienced and
00:06:38.420
versed in in in that sort of thing and some of these dudes are just really good scammers
00:06:42.820
you know and uh what are they what are that what's the saying a fool and his money soon part ways
00:06:48.240
that's right well i mean you know there's a book it's called the automatic millionaire i've made
00:06:52.540
everybody read it all my guys read it i send it out to everybody who's in in our network i'm still
00:06:57.820
convinced i've sold more copies of that book than that guy has sold of his own book but it helped me
00:07:02.200
out so much i'm glad to pay return the fee and i you know i always learn to manage your money
00:07:06.660
in a percentage like if you save 12 or 15 your paycheck it is the more money you make you save
00:07:10.640
the exact same percentage it's a it's a shift that just continues to go whenever you get quick rich
00:07:15.800
which is what we were talking about earlier dude you you you have this idea that hundreds of
00:07:20.560
thousands if i won five hundred thousand dollars i'd be set for life you wouldn't spend every
00:07:24.380
fucking dollar of it you know i mean because that money goes fast and i think you went and people
00:07:28.520
start growing success they have people that want to go with them and then they feel obligated to take
00:07:31.800
them with them and then there's this this perpetuating cycle where once you're in it you can't get
00:07:35.480
out you know and so establishing those good fundamental habits and compounding them over
00:07:39.560
a long period of time is how you create success no different than this building right you know
00:07:43.660
no different than your career no different than life like you have to learn to stay disciplined to
00:07:47.960
a program and when you do that it's when when the variables change on the outside um the equation
00:07:53.500
never changes because you're disciplined to the process so that's you know i mean that was exactly
00:07:57.680
my thought because like i said rob and i were talking about that it's like it's over half a billion
00:08:02.580
dollars in two years not one person came to you and say hey miss cleo you might need to call me now
00:08:09.040
take 10 million set it to the side but like nobody told you the problem is bro everybody said that to
00:08:13.820
her and they all took her 10 million and they fucking ran with it yeah don king called her yeah you know
00:08:18.320
you ever seen the mike tyson documentary don king straight jacked that dude you know yeah i mean that
00:08:23.640
is one of one of the biggest reasons why money goes away like you were talking about is people who
00:08:27.380
if you're not savvy enough to identify who's trying to scam you and you can't build the right
00:08:33.180
team around you it's also like sad but true but a lot of times family members will come out and say
00:08:37.880
oh i'll manage your money yes and then that turns south really quickly because you know money does
00:08:42.600
change people and there were a couple athletes that my old firm represented where that was the
00:08:46.760
exact situation somebody's brother decided to manage this person's money and ended up just stealing
00:08:52.060
under from him and because he trusted his brother to keep an eye on all of it he wasn't keeping an
00:08:56.460
eye on it he didn't even realize that this was happening until it was basically too late so
00:09:00.500
yeah building a team that you can actually trust is so dude and and trust but also trust in their
00:09:06.380
skill set you know what i mean like dude there's lots of good people that that have well and they're
00:09:11.700
well-intentioned right that will come along when you start making money this is actually refreshing
00:09:15.840
to talk about some normal shit i just want to stop and say like the reason i'm so pat i just gotta i'm
00:09:21.220
gonna get off on the fucking crazy shit for one second but like dude it feels so nice to talk
00:09:26.320
about regular things like can we all just stand the fuck up and tell these motherfuckers to fuck
00:09:31.700
off so we can get back to fucking killing it just move on yeah because i'm tired of it so anyway
00:09:35.780
back to making money yeah no back to keeping money yeah that's right because it's two different things
00:09:41.360
that's right it's offense and it's defense and so a lot of people are well-intentioned right and you
00:09:47.460
trust them but they don't have the skills to back it up right and and and that's it that's something
00:09:54.160
that you should all consider as you start because a lot of influencers a lot of entrepreneurs that
00:09:58.640
makes up the core of the show in fact we're all influencers in some regard and if you're not
00:10:03.280
getting paid for it you probably will soon that's going to be the new economy um you guys have to
00:10:09.480
understand that you know first of all making money is a great thing but that's only half of it you know
00:10:15.340
then you've got the defense side of it too you've got the side of protecting it you've got the side of
00:10:19.740
looking out for it being responsible uh then you have being ethically responsible with how you spend
00:10:25.160
your money i mean there's all kinds of things that go into money that nobody really ever considers they
00:10:29.700
just want to see that top line number oh i'm making a million bucks or i made a million bucks and
00:10:34.880
honestly guys if that's your goal it's too low it should be way more than that um and i don't care who
00:10:39.840
you are listening you could be working the fry counter at mcdonald's a million bucks ain't a million
00:10:43.840
bucks anymore so you need to be thinking really really big especially with all the money they're
00:10:48.260
printing right now but um you know trusting your family and friends is one thing but trusting your
00:10:54.400
family and your friends with to have the skills to manage your money that's a whole another thing
00:10:58.740
what would you say dude is one of the better ways for people to actually find because there's so many
00:11:04.320
people out there that are just i mean you dude you live in social media world too and you know like
00:11:08.080
there's a lot of people out there that are completely full of shit yeah i mean the the one of the
00:11:13.160
smarter things you can do is find somebody that you look up to in whatever your lane is and ask
00:11:18.020
them who they use yeah and you know maybe somebody at your level is not using the same type of person
00:11:24.340
that's affordable for someone just starting out but i bet that those people are willing to give
00:11:28.460
them a recommendation like if you went to a huge international law firm that charges over a thousand
00:11:33.480
dollars an hour probably they'll be able to identify someone they know that's like look we're not for
00:11:37.760
you but here's someone we trust yeah get a recommendation from someone who you already know
00:11:42.360
is legit rather than i mean people are getting really good at i mean i get dms from so-called
00:11:48.020
agencies that want to you know grow my instagram i've been around the scene enough to know that's
00:11:52.180
all bs yeah a lot of it is yeah the kind of people who would call dm me usually are yeah and it
00:11:57.740
if you don't have a lot of experience starting out talk to someone who does and see who they would
00:12:02.640
recommend or who they use would recommend yeah man and and dude here's another thing like
00:12:07.760
what's your opinion on even working with people that you know when it comes to money because i've
00:12:13.040
not ever been in favor of that like i've never been in favor of working with someone who's like
00:12:18.040
already my friend or already my family i actually want the opposite i want someone who doesn't know
00:12:23.280
me who doesn't know my personal past or anything like that because like guys you know people like
00:12:30.600
to talk about people that are making money and like do you really want your friends like saying oh no
00:12:35.020
dude like i represent you know i represent that guy i know exactly what he's doing blah blah blah
00:12:39.420
like do you want those conversations something to think about yeah i mean there are so many business
00:12:44.540
disputes and nasty partnership fights that started out as friendships and and if you're going to do
00:12:51.060
that it's extremely important to get everything that matters in writing as soon as possible and you
00:12:56.440
can't look at it as like some people get offended when they see a contract like oh you don't trust me
00:13:00.280
like it's not a trust thing it's their one to protect everybody involved and also as a memory
00:13:05.760
thing down the road like what exactly did we agree about three years ago yeah because the the the kinds
00:13:12.440
of fights where people knew each other initially are just always more drawn out and more dramatic and
00:13:17.760
more problematic than if it's not a previous relationship so if you're going to do that just
00:13:23.600
document everything and understand that if it does go south it's not going to be pretty yeah i think a lot
00:13:30.100
i think a lot of the people in that situation uh the issue is they're bad communicators you know
00:13:35.540
what i'm saying like uh emotional communicators i used to be one of those guys like you pull out
00:13:40.400
the piece of paper i'm like what the fuck dude we're fucking cool but but then uh one of the people
00:13:46.460
we did business with presented me with a contract a while back this is 15 years ago and the way they
00:13:52.040
presented it to me was so nice that i i didn't have a problem with it and this is how the conversation
00:13:56.640
went and i i think this is useful for you guys out there that are going to have to go through this
00:14:01.140
the way they present and the way i present contracts now and it's true and this is how i operate look
00:14:06.980
this is for just just in case and hopefully here's how i want to do business with you we're going to
00:14:13.160
sign this contract or we're going to we're going to come to an agreement here and then i'm going to
00:14:16.780
take this contract i'm going to put it over here in the filing cabinet and we're going to forget about
00:14:19.940
it unless we can't solve something with a conversation and a discussion we're going to
00:14:25.920
have meetings we're going to discuss things i'm not going to pull this out and shove it in your face
00:14:29.940
unless we get to a point where we really cannot agree and that was a i was like oh that you know
00:14:36.440
what that makes sense and that made it feel like way less offensive you know what i'm saying i didn't
00:14:42.080
feel like they were trying to like not trust me or or make me feel like i was not worthy of trust
00:14:47.520
they made me feel like oh okay well they want to build a relationship and this is just a little
00:14:51.380
bit of an insurance policy and and you know what uh not one time and i've been dealing with this
00:14:56.360
company ever since it's been 15 years have they pulled that out not one fucking time you know what
00:15:01.420
i'm saying we've always and it's gotten rough a couple times like where we're you know mfing each
00:15:05.720
other over shit you know but we're still able to solve it through through you know dispute without
00:15:11.640
pulling that contract out and i've i've just adjusted and that's how kind of we do it with with
00:15:15.900
everybody is here's your contract it is what it is but it goes over here and it doesn't really come
00:15:20.620
back and i feel like that's just a better way to present it you know completely agree with you i
00:15:25.860
mean it's a tool there to make things easier when stuff gets difficult so you don't have to worry okay
00:15:30.420
well where are we going to go to court like are we going to arbitrate it's it's set up we already
00:15:35.460
agreed to it we can we don't have to separately fight over that as just like one example yeah it might
00:15:40.180
go into agreement but it's like it is an insurance policy if we have to use it this will make
00:15:45.140
everything easier and and people should and i know it's difficult to get over that but people
00:15:50.140
should get over the initial the emotional response of oh this means this person doesn't trust me
00:15:54.960
or a lot of times people depending on what kind of agreement i'm writing they'll say i can't present
00:16:01.160
this it's too long it's too scary it's like it needs to have not every contract needs to be 20 pages
00:16:07.280
long and filled with legalese and stuff you can write a lot of things in a way that just sounds
00:16:11.420
regular and still protects you but some agreements need to have comprehensive language in there just
00:16:17.740
in case and the the hesitancy of saying oh this will this will be intimidating or scary or something
00:16:25.560
you just really need to get over that because if you revise it to not include something that would
00:16:30.840
make it shorter it's not going to help you when you need it yeah yeah man the uh you know in the last
00:16:38.180
you've been doing influencer marketing for how long or influencer focusing on legal stuff around
00:16:43.200
influencer marketing since uh beginning of 2019 got it the you know you look at the business shift
00:16:50.280
that's happened and it's really interesting because you know you think in the 70s 80s 90s even 2000s
00:16:56.060
right for somebody to make 500 600 700 000 i mean you were a you were a white collar worker working your
00:17:03.360
way through the channels trying to create a career and you know going to school and you got to go to
00:17:07.280
college and the shift to watching some of these people in the last say five years take influencer
00:17:14.320
marketing and build these careers that are in the same the same caliber of dollars and utilizing uh
00:17:21.120
their own personal brand it's much different in and when you look at the dichotomy of the situation
00:17:26.180
you know brand or uh the 80s 90s guy is extremely successful it's in this huge infrastructure of how
00:17:32.300
you make money and what it looks like and you know next year you're going to grow at 10 percent and this is
00:17:36.200
what it is to the new structure which is really volatile comes and goes the person's a personal
00:17:41.400
brand they're out there managing it themselves they really don't have any legal structure or
00:17:44.580
protection or anything you know for you to see the the the holes or connect to these these influence
00:17:51.300
at this point in time is extremely uh open market right now yeah how do you connect and protect these
00:17:57.900
people how do you teach them how do you educate them like if you're a young influencer and you're
00:18:02.320
listening to the show now like what should they seek or what should they ask or what should they
00:18:06.480
think of a brand whenever they're choosing one yeah i mean part of what i'm trying to do through
00:18:10.840
my instagram page is just get issues on people's radar because ultimately it's a business decision
00:18:18.620
how much risk you want to take on and whatever kind of marketing you're doing but you need to know
00:18:22.740
where the risks are to make that judgment call and decide okay i'm comfortable with this or i want
00:18:27.520
everything airtight or whatever so my hope is that i'm presenting examples a lot of the times from
00:18:34.500
the news of this person got in trouble for this or they're went through some legal issue for this
00:18:40.220
common practice so people think oh i didn't even realize there's a there's a trap there so then it's
00:18:45.260
like if you start wondering where the other traps are maybe you'll reach out to a lawyer or somebody
00:18:50.240
with experience going through that to make sure that or to guide you through that process that you're not
00:18:55.820
stepping on landmines that you weren't even aware were there and to your point about uh younger people
00:19:02.520
coming into a lot of money really quickly through ways that did not exist 10 years ago even now now
00:19:07.820
all i gotta do is eat a tie pot on youtube right yeah i'm there it also opens the door for uh scammers
00:19:15.720
or people who are you know less sophisticated so-called agencies and stuff to take advantage of people
00:19:21.500
because they're younger and they haven't experienced it wasn't a gradual path like now i'm famous and a
00:19:27.120
lot of those people are so seduced by the idea of wow i'm going to work with a real agency like this
00:19:33.260
is going to be the next step they're going to sign something without even reading the contract and
00:19:37.080
those are the situations that it's sad to see because a lot of times it's really difficult to get
00:19:42.180
out of a contract that especially when it says you know i agree that i had opportunity to consult
00:19:47.400
with a lawyer i understand all this stuff and then they'll sign up just because oh my friend knows
00:19:52.180
this agency or yeah they've got they want to be cool right yeah and it it's there's so much value
00:19:58.060
fuck up here i won't deal with an agent yeah we won't we won't even sign influencers that have agents
00:20:02.800
and here's why a lot of other companies won't either they're starting to do it dude these agents
00:20:06.840
are fucking predators like we have had agents literally tell the people to take a way less
00:20:13.800
fucking uh beneficial deal just because they didn't like the fact that we didn't want to talk
00:20:20.540
to them or they're likely getting a kickback from somebody else yeah that's the thing that that's
00:20:25.560
interesting to me you know we have obviously we have a company that's built on an influencer model
00:20:29.500
right we were early adopters and understanding how that works and how the internet works and how to use
00:20:33.080
it and what it means and how you can you know compound it and so we've had the opportunity to deal
00:20:38.040
with some pretty high net worth people quote unquote from a following or influence standpoint
00:20:42.620
and you know in negotiating these things what i've i always laugh because i get in this thing and i'd
00:20:47.320
be like you know like hey you got to talk to my agent i'm you know this is a 19 year old girl or
00:20:50.800
22 year old guy and i'm sitting there thinking like what the fuck you have an agent because anyway i
00:20:54.080
call the guy i'll be on the phone with him i'm talking to him i'm like there's zero fucking totally
00:20:58.400
clueless about fucking business they don't even have i mean there's literally like the the insight is
00:21:02.840
like hey man explain to me some campaigns you worked on before give me some insight like your experience
00:21:07.740
well you know i'm a um whatever you know whatever their history is but it has zero zero understanding
00:21:12.620
of influencer marketing or how to manage an individual and you and i even i mean there's
00:21:16.900
one person one young lady that comes into mind in particular i know exactly who you're talking
00:21:20.700
yeah he got this girl because he got her a chipotle deal got a chipotle for life okay that same deal
00:21:27.360
cost her literally she'd be making millions of dollars with us over the course of that same time frame
00:21:32.600
for some fucking free burritos now this guy about three years ago yeah she she would have made
00:21:36.980
five times more money than she's made total by just signing that deal with us and now they
00:21:42.440
bounce from brand to brand to brand trying to you know work the deal and here's this guy here's a
00:21:47.520
young influencer who's doing a fabulous job of building her brand or his brand you get hooked up
00:21:52.300
with the wrong person they sign you into a bunk deal now they bounce you from brand to brand to brand
00:21:57.000
and then when they come to a credible brand we won't sign them right because they're already
00:22:00.140
discredited they've already discredited voices already diluted nobody believes someone that's been
00:22:04.720
with 17 fucking brands in four years right nobody like you influencers out there who are signing
00:22:10.460
with people for fucking one year or two or a year or six months and these little deals eventually all
00:22:17.140
those deals that you're going to be chasing these little bitty deals your whole life because no no
00:22:22.120
big brand is going to want to make an investment in you because your word is shit yeah yeah and the
00:22:27.060
same thing that makes it easier to become famous online and build a presence makes it easy for people to
00:22:32.420
pretend like they're legitimate agencies too like the barrier to entry to holding yourself out is
00:22:37.040
you know you can rent a lambo and go to a rented mansion and stuff buy followers and you know people
00:22:41.900
do it all the time yeah yeah constantly and then if anybody's looking to rent a couple i can make that
00:22:46.840
happen times are tight yeah got a vacant house maybe got some day rates yeah yeah it just takes more
00:22:55.740
diligence now to figure out who's real and who isn't because it's so much easier to present a fake
00:22:59.800
image but this is this is a very this is a we're at a really great shift i feel in social influence
00:23:05.840
marketing because what once was the fake flex got you where you wanted to go we are seeing i manage
00:23:11.720
you know we have thousands tens of 12 000 people that we manage in this format in some way shape or
00:23:16.380
form authenticity has never been more valuable right telling the truth being real and it's starting to
00:23:22.400
create that that that division that we want to see on social media early it was the flex now it's the
00:23:28.660
truth and i think you know aligning yourself and finding to build your brand so that you're not a
00:23:33.540
two or three year you know money maker on the internet but how to build a real brand is coming
00:23:38.440
through being authentic and telling the truth you know learning that that compounding interest over
00:23:42.400
time if in fact what andrew said you know our brands are going to be our our individuality over
00:23:47.120
time is going to be how we make our income which is true yeah right it's that's been always true
00:23:50.980
actually it's just now it's coming digital learning that no one can beat you at you and finding people who
00:23:57.160
add value to you is a huge advantage especially early you know so figuring out how to build the
00:24:02.120
best brand possible and then aligning with people who are the best in their category as possible so
00:24:06.240
that you can succeed together right can we do this i want to ask you guys this question because i feel
00:24:10.280
like you know again i'm you you could consider me an influencer right but like what what is the real
00:24:15.980
definition of an influencer because i feel like that's diluted so much because you have so many people
00:24:21.260
in this field they know no i mean you got to think influencers been around for thousands of years yeah i mean
00:24:26.460
the most popular guy on the block who's created the most value by adding the most valuable to the
00:24:29.720
block is who everybody listens to right that's 1950 1960 1970 it's just recently changed to a digital
00:24:36.300
format where everybody can compete 100 and and what's and what what has happened is not just the
00:24:43.180
biggest voice are able to monetize anymore now you have the medium and the micro influencers that are
00:24:48.620
able to monetize as well and if you you know if you want to be honest the biggest value and the biggest
00:24:54.160
the biggest person that you're going to want isn't the big celebrity that has 10 million followers
00:25:00.300
because like i said those people everybody knows that those people are pay per flip pay per play yeah
00:25:05.940
what you really want is someone who is believable who has a small network that people they communicate
00:25:12.160
with that's a real human that could communicate so it's not that like it's a new way of selling it's
00:25:18.200
always been the way that things have sold right it's just that this new technology has created a
00:25:22.300
platform for the everyday person to monetize their their influence and their and if their influence
00:25:30.100
aligns with what they actually use and the way they actually live in an authentic way they make a lot
00:25:35.420
of money and if it doesn't they get washed out well we see that a lot and andy i know you talk about
00:25:39.600
it uh you call it the midas touch but like you know how how important is how you talk about this
00:25:43.860
on authenticity how important is that you know especially in today's area where you have people like
00:25:48.680
sports athletes becoming politicians right like how how important i mean i just want you to touch
00:25:53.780
on that a little bit more because you talk about you know it's super important well i mean who do
00:25:57.240
you are well i think the the shift is the shift is it's happening or it has happened it has happened
00:26:02.680
in our eyes because we're i'd like to think we're on the tip of the spear but it's happening for the
00:26:06.260
majority of people right now is understanding that your personal brand in the big picture in the
00:26:10.480
long term is going to matter because your network is going to be the thing that you have the ability
00:26:14.460
to monetize even if you can't monetize it now and so building value and who you are and the knowledge
00:26:19.400
and information that you do have that could create value for other people that's the trick that's the
00:26:23.840
key that's the hook so like you know i put away for all my kids to go to college i don't know that my
00:26:29.640
kids will go to college my kids are going to learn fundamental aspects that can help people around
00:26:34.600
them in their community whether it's online or in person be strong people of character that can lead
00:26:39.180
other people to the promised land whatever the promised land is right if he wants to be in
00:26:42.820
construction or if they want to be in design or they want to be in nursing like how do you become
00:26:47.000
the most valuable person in your sphere so that other people look to you and that's not going to
00:26:51.680
be by way of college in my personal opinion it's going to be a way by developing extremely valuable
00:26:57.240
skills to a subset of people and then monetizing them big picture and long term right so you know the
00:27:03.040
reason these athletes become politicians because right now we're in a popularity contest right we're not
00:27:07.620
really we don't trust the old politicians we really like you know walter payton he's a great guy you know
00:27:12.580
what i mean we're working through these situations of of popularity i think long term i don't think
00:27:17.620
walter payton's gonna win yeah i guess walter payton's out i mean like i don't i'm sorry herschel
00:27:21.240
walker i gotta know he might win a democrat ballot somewhere well his son what's his son he's got
00:27:25.220
walker walker hirschel walker you're talking about christian walker no no no no no payton's son played
00:27:30.440
at miami he said yeah yeah you're thinking of herschel walker who's running for the senate in
00:27:34.440
georgia correct i think his son christian walker who is an influencer he's a he's a conservative
00:27:40.720
influence great running backs you know what i'm saying i don't know what to tell you but my point
00:27:44.180
being is like my point being is i think the future we're just in a really unique shift that people
00:27:49.580
haven't adjusted to yet they still think it's weird they think oh it's you got a little brand on the
00:27:53.840
internet you know you're cool on the internet no no no no creating value for the future yeah you know
00:27:58.120
like and and so that value cannot be taken away you have to learn to how to maximize it and the cool
00:28:03.520
thing up front everybody figured out how to fake it the cool thing is big picture and long term it's it is
00:28:09.540
extremely transparent and the compounding effect that'll happen over time is the true you comes out
00:28:14.560
the truth will come out eventually the story is told so how do you continue to create so much value
00:28:19.620
by telling the truth and helping people improve their lives if you can do that you will win if you
00:28:23.880
don't do that you're going to be learning from somebody else who is winning it's interesting to me
00:28:28.380
how many people i'm just sitting here listening you guys talk thinking about all the people who waited
00:28:35.240
on social media and didn't and like didn't take it serious and like now like you're going to see a
00:28:40.900
big shift in politics i think based around social media horsepower real soon because a lot of like i've
00:28:47.180
met with a number of of good politicians these are good people but they didn't necessarily work on
00:28:53.000
building a brand uh over the last 10 years and now the traditional advertising space is sort of
00:29:01.460
diluted where people don't pay attention so they don't really have any way to really reach people
00:29:05.980
and so what you're going to see in my opinion is a lot of people with social horsepower starting to fill
00:29:12.360
these roles and these bigger roles it's going to be really weird like it's going to be you're going to
00:29:16.280
see like social media people like in office like running shit because dude that's where the eyeballs are
00:29:22.720
yeah i mean if you have an audience that's incredible power yeah i mean who i was while you were saying
00:29:28.220
that i was thinking like when was the last time i actually watched television and paid attention to
00:29:32.520
an ad that was on tv right it's like if you run a political ad i'm i'm not going to see it out yeah
00:29:38.320
and and so many more people spend hours and hours on instagram every single day they're going to see
00:29:44.200
that a lot quicker if you've got that you know a real million followers or whatever versus you ran an
00:29:48.880
ad on local news yeah but i think that's the validation too that we're going to see over time
00:29:53.020
right you're going to have the ability to watch these people i mean the sad thing about the
00:29:56.500
kardashians is they ruin the world or mtv cribs or whatever they ruin the world however they
00:30:00.760
change a bad show let's not just go together sorry i love cribs i need to do my own episode
00:30:06.540
i meant to say the real world the real world oh yeah he's over there shaking it look look our pro
00:30:11.800
team the best team in the world all shaking their heads in unison about doing cribs we're gonna do
00:30:16.640
cribs on youtube at my house all right we'll do it so my point being is like the reality side of
00:30:22.960
our life when we are the generation in the original real world we are and so we adopted
00:30:27.720
getting into these people's lives and watching it and seeing it now it's transitioned to where
00:30:31.780
it's everyone not just the reality stars it's not just jersey shore it's fucking everyone bro think
00:30:36.740
of joe rogan decided to run for office like nobody's beaten joe rogan no at any level he would
00:30:42.040
dominate yeah and you know why i'd vote for him because he tells the fucking truth he's not a pussy
00:30:47.220
okay and people know who he is and he's made a commitment for the last 12 years of his podcast
00:30:53.540
he's done thousands of episodes even when podcast because podcasting if you guys have been around
00:30:58.720
long enough which most of you guys haven't in the early 90s it got popular then it went away for like
00:31:04.200
10 years and everybody's like podcast that's for like internet nerds well when that was going on he
00:31:09.680
was doing it and now he's where he is because of that you know i think it's important too to
00:31:14.240
understand sorry it's important to understand you know his passion is what put him in a position to
00:31:20.040
do the podcast you know he loved mma fighting and he would he would he was the announcer he was the
00:31:24.340
young kind of guy who had a good voice who could communicate it effectively and talk everybody through
00:31:28.660
it yeah before that he was telling people to eat deer penises on fucking fear factor
00:31:33.020
buffalo balls that's what i remember saying you eat this buffalo ball and it's a big veiny fucking thing
00:31:38.940
i'm like dude i would not buy no buffalo ball i'm fucking i'm afraid i lose but you know if he
00:31:46.120
followed his passion and continue to put out valuable content he's unshakable right and i think
00:31:50.800
when you look at a brand and you're thinking to a young influencer it's not about selling people it's
00:31:54.280
about being undeniably you like don't fucking like don't shake it's who i am like i got a fucking past
00:32:00.360
i fucked up this you own it stand for it and keep moving and guess what people can associate
00:32:05.080
dude look at every look at every fucking big influencer out there all of them have one thing
00:32:10.160
in common every fucking one of them they're authentic well all every real one no no no i'm
00:32:15.780
talking about the real influencers i'm not talking about the motherfuckers that we all know have half
00:32:21.060
of a fake following and use all the i'm talking about the household name motherfuckers jaco goggins
00:32:28.300
rogan okay those guys are who the fuck they are and if you don't like who they are they don't really
00:32:34.000
give a fuck and i know that because i know them guys they don't care uh portnoy nobody portnoy
00:32:40.040
doesn't give a fuck if you don't like them you know what i'm saying they're just who they are and
00:32:44.040
like it's so bizarre to me that that old mentality from the you know it really it comes from pre-social
00:32:51.620
of you know the saying don't talk politics don't talk religion uh you know keep you know what i'm
00:32:57.380
saying like to keep it out of the bar yeah the rules yeah the rules like we don't get political we
00:33:01.240
don't get this we don't get that look man you go where the fucking eyeballs are and what people
00:33:05.100
care about and you give your honest opinion on it it's really simple it's in in this old mentality of
00:33:10.720
well i don't want to make my brand political especially in this day and age um you don't
00:33:15.920
have a choice fuck you don't otherwise you're irrelevant i see all these social media influencers
00:33:20.460
some that we used to actually have on our roster that are no longer on the roster continuously posting
00:33:26.240
selfies and the same shit they were posted two years ago and they're literally getting on social
00:33:31.240
media pissed off no one cares about my shit no shit motherfucker because when there was nothing to
00:33:37.420
worry about we like to look at your pictures now that there's actual shit going on guess what
00:33:42.080
you're not you haven't talked about it you've just eluded your brand a hundred points by not
00:33:46.980
letting your voice or your stance be known out of fear for what the retribution is bro this is why
00:33:53.840
america's in this spot america's in this spot over this old fucking rule where we don't talk about
00:33:58.820
things that are important because we don't want to offend anybody and we don't want to lose any
00:34:01.820
dollars dude talking about the real shit in a real way regardless of what side you fall on
00:34:08.600
actually equates to a whole lot of dollars that's what people miss well and i think you know at the
00:34:14.460
end of the day it goes back to value and standing for who you are well dude and you know what even if
00:34:18.200
you don't agree with us okay let's just say you have the complete opposite views of us and a lot of
00:34:21.740
people do all right if they go to that authentically they're gonna do well because there's a lot of
00:34:28.020
people out there they fucking believe with those people like joe biden he does a great job of it
00:34:31.840
well i'm sorry hey here's what we got to let's acknowledge that real quick um he's united the
00:34:38.440
country more than trump did let's be fucking real that is a fact he did and dj we went that's a fact
00:34:44.420
37 minutes without one without fucking anything political no no no we i i did that one thing that
00:34:49.760
was time out yeah okay time out time out time out well let's i want to go back to something too
00:34:53.960
because it's important it's important to recognize the transition i mean we you know i'd we've probably
00:34:59.460
built one of the pinnacle influencer models of companies in modern day era right like that's
00:35:04.440
it's truth right can't argue well everybody else uses it i think it's pretty influential yeah i mean
00:35:09.720
you know and so i mean it's you know people people i get asked a thousand times how'd you do this
00:35:14.240
how'd you do that but the thing is is the original days of instagram you know and these people that
00:35:19.140
really have no value the people you're speaking of it was all right hey i'm gonna get on instagram
00:35:23.280
with my swimsuit right then i'm gonna instagram and and a swims that at at three quarters naked
00:35:28.740
then i'm gonna get more likes i'm gonna get seven eights naked where you go from there yeah right
00:35:32.460
right only fans and so you know it's it's allowed the progression where early on when social was
00:35:37.920
relevant you got to look at kind of like you know you get to look at all the hot chicks you know
00:35:41.500
nobody would know that you were looking at all the hot chicks and the dudes right you look at all
00:35:44.240
the weird shit and so their following's got what wait wait wait wait wait we can't just zoom over
00:35:54.820
no no for real though for real for real because it's not just the hot chicks that have 18 million
00:36:03.240
followers it's all that i mean this is what our company stood against like hey if you got 18 abs and
00:36:07.640
you want to keep posting pictures yourself online great you ain't gonna change nobody's fucking life
00:36:10.920
right like you're gonna get seven eights naked great what value do you have what education you
00:36:14.840
get well how can you help me how can you teach them how can you provide the result that i'm trying
00:36:18.100
be be that and something else but i think it's important though to to recognize because these
00:36:24.060
people who are starting brands and they don't understand social like you know those people they
00:36:28.340
may have 19 million followers in today's land they have no value right like that audience is dead
00:36:33.240
because those people you can't convert them they're non-convertible so you can't you can't take 19
00:36:37.780
million people who just follow you because you get seven eights naked guy or girl i'll address it
00:36:42.140
better because whenever you go to impress them with your knowledge you that's not what they're
00:36:47.100
there for yeah they're there to see a seven eights naked that's the point there's one-off campaigns
00:36:51.600
with huge influencers end up being most of the time a lot less valuable than if you have a long
00:36:55.860
relationship with an influencer with maybe under 10 000 followers but is completely aligned with what
00:37:01.520
you do and that's what they were posting about anyway and whose audience is there to learn from them
00:37:06.740
especially like there's somebody that i worked with who does uh do-it-yourself fashion stuff she has
00:37:13.160
her her fans love what she does because they can they can learn from it and sort of recreate their
00:37:18.160
stuff at home and they're like fascinated by the hands-on approach and she's educating people
00:37:21.880
and if you're in fashion or something working with someone like that is going to be so much more
00:37:28.140
roi and just every dollar better spent than a 20 million follower campaign with somebody who only
00:37:34.860
post bikini pictures and you only get one post because it's all you can afford yeah and if you
00:37:38.600
look at the comments on big influencers posts when they break from just posting about themselves and
00:37:44.320
do something that's obviously they're only doing it because they're getting paid a lot of the times
00:37:49.680
the comments now are vicious because everyone's so quick to pick up on that's why authenticity wins
00:37:53.760
i mean this is why being you is important you know i mean i i can't tell you how many hours i've had
00:37:57.420
on phones with influencers and coaching and moving them and you know going through it i mean i've been
00:38:01.200
doing it for the last 10 years so but understanding that i'd much rather have somebody that has 2500
00:38:06.240
followers than somebody has 100 i mean they're they are more relatable they are more edgy they are
00:38:13.100
more you said you never have somebody that has 2500 followers than 100 followers sorry than 100
00:38:18.640
000 followers oh okay sorry i must have i misspoke because of the the ability for them to speak to their
00:38:24.440
crowd because that audience follows that person for a reason they're their friend you know what i mean
00:38:28.920
they find value this the the to the point they share a common interest and so figuring out if
00:38:34.000
that common interest is going to work for us and them like i it's so much easier of a transition
00:38:38.800
because that trust is already there with 2500 people the 100 000 people i'm always now i'm at
00:38:43.300
the point where i can look at somebody's social in about 30 seconds i can digest it and understand
00:38:46.320
this is going to work or not but the 100 000 people usually somewhere if you dig deep way deep down
00:38:50.420
on your instagram they're seven eights naked you know what i mean there's a lot of followers in there
00:38:53.520
and the thing is in today's world there's tools you can look at that stuff you can see genuine audience
00:38:57.580
you can see interaction you can see engagement we run tools all time i can see somebody's uh
00:39:01.520
affluent score like i i can tell if they're convertible so like you can't fake your way
00:39:05.700
through this game it's no different than you really than you could in the 80s or 90s you're
00:39:09.960
gonna have to work your fucking way through the game yeah and that's just the truth can we talk a
00:39:13.480
little bit about guys about people so you found yourself you're authentic your truth to that
00:39:17.700
how important that is to stay that way because i think on the flip side too we also see a lot of
00:39:23.720
influencers who you know they've they've amassed a huge following they're making crazy amounts of
00:39:29.340
money and they they still get lost in the sauce and start doing dumb stuff you know like how have
00:39:33.340
you seen that a lot in in your expertise yeah i mean i see it as much as everybody else basically i
00:39:38.900
mean when it makes headlines we all hear about it and it's it's just about treating your if you're if
00:39:45.160
you're trying to become an influencer to better your life and and make income and form relationships
00:39:50.220
with brands and build something then you need to treat it like the business that it really is
00:39:54.700
and monitor all right well what is it about my personal brand that's actually personal personal
00:40:01.160
to me that helped me build this in the first place and try your best not to lose sight of that and
00:40:06.780
treat it like you're showing up to work and not just showing up to you know screw around on social
00:40:11.520
media and the more you treat it like a business and that can also include like if you're monetizing
00:40:16.800
through merch or something set up an llc like have things in place that make it seem to you and in
00:40:22.700
reality more like a business than just a pastime and you're probably more likely to keep the guardrails
00:40:28.160
on when you go online and you're interested in posting something that's off-brand or that might
00:40:32.280
i think that's super valuable bro like that's something that everybody has to remind themselves
00:40:36.640
of you know like when you get in those ruts where you're like fuck i don't know what to say or i
00:40:41.180
don't know what to you know uh i don't know what to you know post um you're getting lost in the metric
00:40:48.440
you're getting lost in in the how many likes am i going to get how many comments am i going to get
00:40:52.860
when you whip out your phone because you see something that is like meaningful to you and you
00:40:57.560
talk about it that's the purest form of content that people relate to and you know i see a lot of
00:41:03.200
people really mess this up because what happens is and this is why the victim culture gets perpetuated
00:41:08.720
so hard usually how this happens is the first time someone ever does that is when they're having
00:41:13.800
a bad time so the first time ever they figure out about how to be vulnerable or how to be authentic
00:41:18.620
is when they're highly emotional in a bad way right so they pick up their phone and they tell this story
00:41:24.220
about this thing that happened to them or this medical condition or something real that they're
00:41:28.840
going through right and people respond because it's authentic and everybody has empathy for that and
00:41:35.580
what happens is those people the next two days let's say the weather changes right and their
00:41:40.720
problems kind of flow away because that's what happens guys the weather's going to change the
00:41:44.300
sun's going to come back out and you're going to be like you were a couple days ago if you just give
00:41:48.240
it a minute and when that comes they forget about how that story right and instead of attributing it to
00:41:54.280
them being authentic as to why they were highly engaged with which is why they attribute it to them being the
00:42:00.480
victim and they start to tell these sad stories over and over and over and over and then people tune
00:42:07.580
the fuck out and dude like it's it's so frustrating for me when i watch influencers go down that road
00:42:14.100
because it happens all the time and then it creates this situation yeah i know i know exactly who the
00:42:19.400
fuck you're thinking about and and uh and and then they become like these these whiners that nobody
00:42:27.420
wants to listen to and like guys the reason people responded wasn't because of your sad story it was
00:42:33.760
because they have a sad story as well that they that they empathize with and they said man it really
00:42:39.720
fucking sucks and they appreciated the fact that you were like authentic about sharing it it wasn't
00:42:44.480
necessarily that you were struggling and uh you know if you guys could remember that like you can you can
00:42:50.200
have those authentic moments in all different types of situations and if you watch people who are who are
00:42:55.700
really good at that um the people you follow right the people you are naturally engaged with most of
00:43:02.060
them are authentic in the moment most of them are talking about real shit that's happening most of them
00:43:08.000
are talking about you know things that they're really into like this woman that you're talking about
00:43:13.100
who's uh with her hands on with her fashion right most people can most people just like that sort of
00:43:18.680
authenticity it's not it's not being a victim and whining that gets people to engage it's it's the
00:43:24.680
authentic nature that comes with that yeah it's also important to remember that engagement doesn't
00:43:30.900
always mean quality right like just a small scale example with my stuff like sometimes i'll post just
00:43:36.100
a static image talking about some case or whatever and it'll get 3 000 shares which is a lot for my
00:43:42.500
little page but and my videos maybe won't get half as many likes or maybe only 30 people will save it
00:43:48.640
but anytime i meet somebody in real life who's familiar with me they only talk about the video stuff
00:43:53.740
because that's what they remember and that's why a lot of times they'll reach out to me in the first
00:43:57.500
place so but if i were looking at it like well i guess i should only post the stuff that gets shared
00:44:02.800
3 000 times none of that would be helpful to me or very little of right so to your point about like
00:44:09.440
an influencer who posts something vulnerable and sees wow i got a million likes on that i should
00:44:15.100
just keep doing that yeah yeah it's not it's not that that is an indicator that that was the most
00:44:20.000
quality thing you've ever done right it's not that the what gets you the most attention is something
00:44:24.440
you should do every single day right even though that's tempting and that's the trap that we've
00:44:28.680
seen them fall into i see this with a lot a lot of the uh fitness influencers men and women who
00:44:34.420
you know they post their they over post their bodies right we know that your body is part of the
00:44:40.740
of the deal but you know people are interested in how you got that body or what it takes to keep
00:44:46.460
that body or the struggles that you go through for that body or the victories you have you know
00:44:51.200
they want to see that authentic shit they don't want to see some just person they think is and and
00:44:56.960
you know also as i'm talking this out a lot of it has to do with ego too because a lot of people who
00:45:01.580
are in a place they enjoy um they enjoy the idea i know in the entrepreneur influencer space there's a
00:45:09.200
lot of guys who enjoy the idea of feeling superior to everybody else so they like that
00:45:16.460
um all the younger entrepreneurs younger in the game not younger in age like just the beginner
00:45:21.060
entrepreneurs they like to feel like they have something that these people don't and that's why
00:45:27.020
they're successful when in reality that's not true the truth is they've done things or they've done
00:45:32.080
things long enough or they have a circumstance that's allowed them to be there they're not different
00:45:36.920
than you and so what happens is we get a lot of influencers who have uh they have attached their
00:45:43.960
identity to i'm this superior person and instead of like actually providing that valuable content
00:45:50.900
like how do people become like you they just keep pushing this shit out and then they can't figure out
00:45:57.640
why their brand's not valuable you know what i'm saying you're not dude there's three things that
00:46:01.620
you got to do to to be an effective influencer it's really simple you got to educate you got to
00:46:06.780
entertain or you got to impact okay and those are the three things like if you do those three
00:46:12.060
things one of those three things is going to be valuable to the equity of your brand if you do
00:46:16.460
things outside of that that are self-serving for your ego purposes they're going to dilute your
00:46:21.500
brand and that's how you should think about it i got a lot of questions about this so i'm gonna
00:46:24.560
talk about it today we just fucking talked about this like the number one fucking bullshit line on
00:46:29.080
the internet is people keep asking me but nobody's asking you shit motherfucker that's your ego
00:46:34.040
yeah but there's there's a couple things this right whatever comes out of their mouth after people
00:46:38.040
keep asking me or i got a lot of questions a lot is something that they want to talk about
00:46:42.780
that they want to brag about serving their ego yeah and and dude so stop using that line
00:46:47.360
motherfuckers like at least be original and say something like you know hey this is what i want
00:46:51.480
to talk about like i mean it's authentic yeah no but i mean i so to your point though right static
00:46:57.280
static post video static post likes video you've seen the progression of of the influencer model go
00:47:03.500
from static post to video why because the authenticity is really hard to fucking duplicate
00:47:08.900
inside a video right and you know and that's why everybody's like oh i'm uncomfortable on camera well
00:47:13.100
guess what i was uncomfortable on camera too up for me too and i got myself out there and i figured it
00:47:16.840
out and guess what i can give me that motherfucking phone i'll put any video down you want you know
00:47:20.400
but people love to see behind the scenes video it's it's very hard to photoshop a video it's hard to
00:47:26.280
photoshop your life in a video and when i'm coaching people and and helping people figure out or
00:47:31.460
establish their brand i always tell tander's point on three things you can only be three things
00:47:35.360
and for me it's fitness family and business the only three things i post about because you for
00:47:39.740
you to be the jack of all trades master of none nobody's going to follow you nobody's going to
00:47:43.400
want to be you you don't add value i only do three things that's it you come to my page i talk
00:47:46.760
about three things my kids the business or fitness and that's it because i guess what i'm not
00:47:50.920
going to teach you how to change oil in your fucking car and i'm not going to act like it because
00:47:53.540
it's not me so like understanding like hey man you got to figure out this to the point of my kids
00:47:57.960
in college like or not going to college you have to figure out what you love to do and just do that
00:48:03.680
and do it really well and teach people and educate them entertaining them and impact their lives and
00:48:08.800
create change and in a small microcosm you can monetize that at a big level we have people have
00:48:13.860
5 000 followers that make 25 000 a month i mean it's very regular around here and so understanding that
00:48:20.240
your ability to help people change their lives or help them solve the problem that they have
00:48:24.140
we all have the same opportunity on this little fucking screen you can either start doing it or
00:48:27.780
get passed up which one you want you know what's funny to me dude is like i think about all our
00:48:31.840
buddies who are professional guys like they're professionals right doctors and shit like that
00:48:36.480
they're all mystified by this shit right like they're like but then i remember like four or five
00:48:40.860
years ago those are the same fucking guys that were like oh there's andy he fucking thinks he's
00:48:45.140
like a celebrity on the internet you know and now they're like oh how the fuck did you do that
00:48:49.580
you know it's like dude you got to get my shirt off hey got the thong yeah listen that works a
00:48:55.640
little bit dude you know it works what do you look like in a thong yeah it's gotta be an ugly ass
00:49:02.080
i sell my i sell my used ones i mean that's how i'm making i bet you do yeah i bet you do worn
00:49:06.920
thongs have you represented any only fans people uh yeah and that that whole have you seen the money
00:49:12.340
these people are making i have holy hell it is unbelievable it is shocking the soul is for sale
00:49:18.500
yeah when i heard this out of the gate i mean some of these some of these gals and guys
00:49:23.040
that you watch on only fans i was gonna ask people are making you know three four five hundred grand
00:49:28.540
a month yeah for showing their butthole for yeah for real and their elbows and i'm gonna tell you
00:49:34.400
if you want to build a long-term brand don't do that now if you want to make some short quick money
00:49:39.140
do just that my wife we were talking so so the joke about hey i gotta you can rent my car and house
00:49:45.260
for a photo pic i'm we're getting ready to move and i was telling my wife you know because
00:49:48.460
you know listen moving's hard and it just like it's real this is real rare getting ready to to
00:49:53.500
progress through life and get back into a money situation and it makes you a little uncomfortable
00:49:57.340
maybe and you start talking these things through and we had to only say well rocky here's the deal
00:50:01.360
you get on only fans for like three months we fuck cover the gap real quick you know what i mean
00:50:05.120
like real quick nobody will know you don't have to show your face let's just rock and roll you
00:50:08.960
know hips hips hips the shoulders dude look i don't i don't necessarily give a fuck if people do
00:50:13.820
only fans like people gotta pay the bills you know like no i don't here's my recommendation if
00:50:19.080
you if that's you and you're gonna do it do it well no realize this you're a professional athlete
00:50:24.700
your contract will expire and you should be responsible with the funds that you make here's
00:50:29.720
where i have a problem with it i see a lot of the especially the women i see a lot of women
00:50:33.600
who weren't making shit on social right uh they're now making a lot of money you know they're out
00:50:39.900
buying a fucking lambo and a fucking this and they're talking about how they're a bad bitch
00:50:43.620
and this and that and this bitch you're showing your butthole let's be fucking real you everybody
00:50:47.940
else got a butthole too you know i'm saying like i'm just being serious so like this is probably one
00:50:53.660
of the most realist fucking conversations we've ever had so let's not talk about bad bitch you you're
00:50:58.120
showing your butthole okay no and i can respect it i can yeah but i ain't gonna respect that you're
00:51:03.480
some badass entrepreneur that's right like okay now if you take that money and you flip it into real
00:51:09.200
estate or you flip it into something or you turn it into a real brand this is the same argument i've
00:51:14.580
had with all the e-com entrepreneurs the young guys and the young girls who are 20 years old
00:51:18.940
and they're fucking yeah they're making funnels and driving a huracan because they made a couple
00:51:23.620
hundred grand right and they want to flex look dude the way to win this fucking war and this goes
00:51:29.040
for the only fans girls and like look dude if you that's what you do cool i really don't care
00:51:33.260
like i have no i'm pro freedom bro and i'm that's to the core i don't judge i really don't
00:51:38.640
if you're an exotic dancer whatever the fuck you do you got to pay the bills totally cool but think
00:51:43.340
about it in a way of how you're you can't do this forever just like a pro football guy can't play
00:51:48.740
50 years in the nfl he's going to play if he's a legend he's going to play 18 years if he's a regular
00:51:55.140
dude he's going to play four all right so what are we going to do with that money how are we going
00:51:59.860
to leverage that into our income for the rest of our lives because guys uh you're not going to be
00:52:05.080
young and beautiful your whole life not to mention only fans could disappear like it almost did
00:52:09.900
yeah a few months ago there was a lot of panic going on for sure competitors will come through and
00:52:14.740
there was a lot of people who weren't panicking because there are a lot of smart women out there
00:52:18.880
who are building that into businesses i know a lot of it and uh look man i i and if you need a place
00:52:25.600
to put it call aaron wags you know he's got some franchises dude's got some shit going on
00:52:29.280
so girls if you're struggling where to put your money call aaron wagner yeah aaron you're welcome
00:52:33.940

00:54:12.400
headline which you know on the surface sounds fucking amazing two thumbs up so the the headline
00:54:17.840
was you know a guy a british man visited 51 bars in 24 hours that's fucking two thumbs up but from
00:54:25.780
missouri i'm with it but you start digging into it he only had to drink four ounces of any beverage
00:54:30.820
at that bar and over the course of eight hours it was only like 17 12 ounce and the four ounces
00:54:37.460
didn't have to be alcohol it could have been it could be any beverage so instead you know if that
00:54:42.460
was if that was four ounces of beer at all those places that's 17 beers 17 beers in eight hours ain't
00:54:49.080
that big of a deal for a professional drinker like myself yeah all right i've done that many a times in
00:54:54.500
my life so have you i'm assuming many of us have all right we're from fucking missouri yeah we don't
00:54:59.500
have nothing else to do here motherfuckers we drink beer and what i say we run around with
00:55:03.780
our confederate flags naked you know that's authentic bro that's what they think in la they're
00:55:09.900
like you guys are from missouri yeah you're fucking your s'mores outfits yeah that's what it is
00:55:14.680
no i don't know it's just s'mores outfits bro that was the funniest fucking part of that show
00:55:19.980
bro the s'mores outfits i almost forgot about that see i'm out like i haven't listened to this
00:55:23.980
least informed guy on the internet that's right that's right it was fucking good listen to the
00:55:28.660
show if you want to hear the joke because we're funny as fuck don't think you're dodging about
00:55:32.100
this two thumbs in your butt though because you guys are trying to get out so this guy got two
00:55:36.060
thumbs in the butt because he failed he fucking dude listen i was impressive as a headline no it
00:55:41.020
was fucking bullshit yeah it was a bullshit headline like 90 of them no like 98 of them yeah it was a
00:55:47.120
fake instagram post yeah it was cnn for the likes for the likes for the gram agreed dude you got
00:55:53.400
anything for us to look at today oh i mean that's your job for the minute let's talk about something
00:55:58.360
so dude what would you what would you give uh what would your advice be to someone who owns a company
00:56:07.020
all right and isn't quite sure how to start because i get this a lot because a lot of these guys that
00:56:12.660
we know that are professionals and own brands they're like man i i they they still haven't caught on
00:56:18.700
how to work with influencers you know they're asking they call us a lot and they're like hey
00:56:23.280
man like i got this person and they do this and like how do i work with them like they don't even
00:56:28.980
know how to work with them could you run through like basically a couple basic steps for someone who
00:56:33.760
hasn't signed their first couple influencers and has no idea that would that would help protect them
00:56:38.560
and make a productive uh relationship yeah i mean usually i get involved once the relationship has been
00:56:44.800
set and it needs to be documented and so so you can actually get the campaign going but i know a lot of
00:56:50.620
people who work in agencies that are specialized in matching brands with influencers and finding
00:56:58.480
influencers that will actually work for the brand and so on and i know what you should not do is just
00:57:04.360
cold dm a whole bunch of influencers that you found on one of those services that will find people for you
00:57:09.500
with some impersonal message and hope that something will stick to the wall that's a waste of time number
00:57:15.360
one and it's also not a great way to start a relationship with somebody that you want to
00:57:19.460
represent your brand and it's not just like oh this influencer is now representing me on social
00:57:24.600
media the way most people would think of it legally if an influencer says something about your brand as
00:57:30.120
part of a campaign that is your brand's advertising and so you're on the hook for stuff they say if they
00:57:35.220
say something that you wouldn't be able to support so they're like literally representing you so to start
00:57:41.240
off a relationship with an obvious copy paste message that shows you didn't really do any work on them
00:57:47.260
and it works the other way too if you're an influencer reaching out to brands don't make it don't make
00:57:52.160
someone think even if it's not true that you just are spamming brands trying to catch whatever deal
00:57:57.120
lead with something that shows you did your minimum homework and that's that's a much more the kind of
00:58:05.160
intro that's much more likely to turn into something good for for both parties um but if you are having
00:58:11.060
trouble identifying influencers that will work with you there there are legitimate agencies out there
00:58:16.160
that will help you with that and there's all kinds of tools now that if you know how to use them i think
00:58:19.760
can help match you as well usually like i said what what i uh get involved with is making sure that both
00:58:28.660
sides are clear on what they want out of this campaign and who's giving up what and getting what and for
00:58:33.520
how long and where and stuff like that because it's so so common for disputes to happen where
00:58:39.560
i'll give you an example like if if and this comes up all the time let's say a brand sending out free
00:58:45.360
product influencers and and the exchange is you create one instagram story in exchange for getting
00:58:53.200
this free product or something the brand then collects a bunch of these instagram stories and runs
00:58:59.400
an ad on their own page stitching those instagram stories together they think well because those
00:59:05.480
people created the content in exchange for the free product we can do whatever we want with that
00:59:09.400
content but that's not the case unless you had an agreement specifically saying that you need to
00:59:14.840
have a publicity rights release from the influencer you need to have something saying that you have
00:59:18.840
the license to use the content in your own advertising stuff like that and it's so common for brands to want to just do
00:59:25.400
everything in influencer marketing all at once and you can save so much time and headache and stress
00:59:32.440
and attention away from your business if you're not really thinking about all right what what steps do i
00:59:37.960
need to do to plan for this and actually have something documented that will and this goes back to not really
00:59:44.120
being a trust issue it's more like i have in my mind this for this campaign let me make sure that this
00:59:49.560
person on the other side understands what i'm thinking and vice versa so that you're clear and you can
00:59:54.520
quickly nip those things in the bud when they come up and they will come up if you have a big enough
00:59:58.600
influencer campaign there's going to be disputes even if there's no reason for them and if you can
01:00:04.440
point to like well here's here's exactly there's nice ways to do it of course like you know we we
01:00:10.200
value you we want to keep this relationship going here's part of the agreement that we had where
01:00:15.480
it says we could use it in print or something or or on this platform and that's important too because guys
01:00:21.080
uh when you're dealing with influencers it's really no different than dealing with employees
01:00:25.320
in fact in this in this way you know it's different personalities sometimes people roll out of bed the
01:00:30.760
wrong side and they're fucking mad about nothing and they're going to call you mad about nothing and
01:00:35.080
you're going to be like what the fuck is going on and you have to solve it you know so uh you have to
01:00:40.280
understand that sometimes those conflicts are going to come just because someone's having a bad day
01:00:44.840
uh and you know hopefully you're not the kind of person that makes things hard on someone because
01:00:49.240
you're having a bad day but that does happen both ways sometimes you know so it's very important
01:00:54.200
to get that set up you know what would you say for um you know somebody who is let's just say you
01:01:03.080
know let's just use a doctor's office because i find we have arts a syndicate where it's all
01:01:07.880
entrepreneurs in there and and we have a lot of medical professionals in there uh and and most
01:01:12.920
of the time i found that medical professionals are terrible at fucking business like literally
01:01:17.320
the worst people at business and the reason they're the worst people at business is because
01:01:21.080
they think they're smart because they went to school to be a doctor they think they understand
01:01:26.120
business too and literally everything else this is why most of us hate to hang out with
01:01:30.520
fucking doctors it's the truth okay um what would you give for advice to someone like that who literally
01:01:39.880
knows nothing but they want to start to take their little brick and mortar operation and use
01:01:45.800
influencers how would they target influencers that would be relevant to them and then spark that
01:01:51.560
relationship without um coming across as uh generic i think in that kind of situation where where you have
01:02:02.840
someone with expertise in a certain lane uh i think you'd probably agree it's really important to
01:02:09.800
surround yourself with people who know stuff that you don't and who are specialists at certain things that
01:02:14.840
great leading question by the way yeah yeah that that uh right thank you isn't it true that it's
01:02:21.640
important to surround yourself but you know what i do agree so in that situation i i what i would
01:02:29.000
recommend is find someone who does that as their job and and treat them with the respect that you would
01:02:34.920
of anybody else in your office like it used to be that social media managers were the high school
01:02:39.880
interns and and and you know nobody really knew what they did and they like made pictures on canva
01:02:46.280
or something it is a legitimate job that can really help you and there are actual pros who do it and
01:02:51.400
break you too yeah and if you if you can find someone and again probably through a referral of
01:02:56.680
someone that you trust who can do that job and you and you have your you have the ability to step
01:03:02.280
back and let them do that job for you without trying to be overbearing because i have friends who do that
01:03:07.480
job and they're like oh the client has hired me and yet they want to tell me how to do everything
01:03:11.800
every step of the way and then they're surprised when it doesn't work out so that would be what i
01:03:16.600
would say find somebody who specializes in that work that you can trust and then just trust them to
01:03:21.960
do their job let me let me let me add on this because you know i i consult in this little category
01:03:27.560
and you know either you learn to do it or your competitor is going to get better at you doing it
01:03:32.520
and they're going to put you out of business so there's a there's an advantage to understanding
01:03:36.120
okay it's an it's now a necessity it's not a it's not a like a plus it's a fucking staple and so you
01:03:42.120
either figure out how to get better than your competitor at the at the social aspect and brick
01:03:46.680
and mortar or somebody's going to put you out of business who's better at it than you are yeah and
01:03:50.520
you know you take the doctor's office like take my wife for example it was really my wife's a nurse
01:03:54.920
practitioner she does like injector stuff things like that and two or three years ago she was real
01:03:58.920
nervous well we can't do this this isn't like really accepted in our field well guess what great time to do
01:04:04.360
it great time to do it and she's kicked ass ever since right and opened up this entire category now
01:04:08.840
all these people are doing it in that way so you think that social media is not for you i'm here to
01:04:13.720
tell you that's you being weak because you're scared to do the work and get vulnerable and learn a new
01:04:18.600
skill that's what it is it's just a true it's gonna cost you everything yeah especially if you're in an
01:04:23.720
area that if there is an area that's still hesitant to get involved in social media what an opportunity
01:04:28.920
yeah yeah that's the truth man and i would say i'm a flip side too just to be fair there's a lot
01:04:34.440
we deal with this sometimes too you know like we get these younger influencers who happen to have a
01:04:39.160
couple million followers right they're fucking 19 20 years old they got a couple million followers
01:04:44.280
they think they're gonna come in here and tell me how social works it's like motherfucker uh you
01:04:49.560
know this system that everybody else uses we were the first fucking company to do it so when you're
01:04:54.360
talking to me like you think you know some shit realize you're talking to the motherfucker that
01:04:58.840
fucking invented the shit and put it into play and invented the system that fucking literally every
01:05:03.400
company fucking uses now we get this all the time these young bucks come in here and they're like oh
01:05:08.200
i got two million listen you motherfuckers need to humble yourself because when you come across people
01:05:12.680
that actually know how this works they could take your two million followers and turn it into two
01:05:16.520
million dollars a fucking month okay we dealt with this today oh yeah you know what i'm saying
01:05:21.400
like and and and sometimes people want to shelter and it's like hey listen you you know
01:05:26.200
the competitive advantage that we have learned over time is you know we've been doing this particular
01:05:31.240
piece influencer marketing on social for the last 10 years 10 years and that experience and all the
01:05:38.440
failures you need to talk about somebody through name image likeness you know asking you for royalties
01:05:42.360
like you know how i learned that mistake i fucking did it you know what i mean you know what i don't do
01:05:46.280
anymore that you know i had somebody call me one time they're like oh you use my picture on a
01:05:50.120
video and you guys monetize it and i want royalties for it you guess what i did i went into the
01:05:54.120
instagram i took the goddamn post out i said no i don't need it anymore but my point being is like
01:05:58.120
now moving forward when i put so many in a video guess what i do you know humility goes a long way
01:06:02.200
in this game it really does in business like just saying hey you know what i'm doing pretty good uh
01:06:07.480
what can i learn from you you know and vice versa like i like to look at these younger people that
01:06:12.680
come that we get in contact with most of them are wonderful people by the way um there's just been a
01:06:17.960
few that think they there's a few highlights over the years yeah right for sure and if i told you
01:06:22.760
the stories you never work with these motherfuckers again but i would never do that someone because i'm
01:06:26.840
not a piece of shit the truth is they're most of them are really cool and you can learn like as a
01:06:31.960
company you can learn a lot from the younger influencers who are doing things differently uh you
01:06:37.400
can learn about the new technologies and the new ways of doing things but ultimately um being humble
01:06:43.560
with these situations on both sides and approaching someone and saying hey look we're this is what we're
01:06:48.680
our goal is and this is how we see you helping us and we our goal is also beneficiary to you as well
01:06:55.160
because and that's something that no one talks about not many people talk about what the brand does
01:07:00.360
for the influencer you know most of the time it's it's formatted as a one-way street we're going to pay
01:07:07.240
you and you go do this for us but i'm telling you one of the things that makes our company unique
01:07:12.440
is that we try to contribute back to our influencers as much as we take from them we want to build their
01:07:17.720
credibility we want to put them as an expert we want to build their brand equity and those things
01:07:22.120
are valuable when looking for a brand to work with guys like it's not just about the paycheck that
01:07:26.440
you're going to take for the next six months it's about what's this company going to do to help
01:07:30.680
credit make you credible and build your expertise and what skills can they teach you and what can you
01:07:35.320
learn from them and vice versa and those are the relationships that i think we both agree are the best one
01:07:41.720
not only that i mean you know 99.5 of our people have stayed you ever notice that the people that
01:07:47.560
also are the highest converting influencers are exactly what i just described they're the easiest
01:07:52.360
to work with they're the most humble they listen and they're willing to teach and they're willing
01:07:57.400
without this idea of i don't want to tell you my secrets yeah right well i mean i think because
01:08:02.360
there's a i mean but look at our our model in particular and i think from a small business owner this is
01:08:07.320
very reputable you have to find and come up with a business deal that's fair for everyone yeah and
01:08:11.720
it's hey there's a lot of people wanting to make a one-side deal that's right and i mean it and it's
01:08:15.960
and the thing is is moving forward people are smart you know like i had a deal one time to for
01:08:20.600
twenty thousand dollars to post a febreze thing a fucking plug it 20 grand we're in my office i'm
01:08:25.000
like don't do it hey he said don't do it i'm sitting here thinking like fuck out for 20 grand i'm
01:08:28.520
gonna post for a reason and andrew's like don't do it man yeah and it's true because it's like yeah
01:08:33.400
because now for for the rest of the fucking time you'll see it you're for sale that's right and
01:08:37.320
they'll see it and for your position and what our game that's not a good thing yeah and that's the
01:08:42.600
thing is like you need to understand that sometimes you're going to do this for free right you know
01:08:47.000
what i mean and understanding there's a value to it and you being associated and maybe it's something
01:08:51.320
that you learn maybe it's something that you can educate yourself on and that story for me like
01:08:55.880
i wasn't going to post hashtag ad do you know how many valuable you know how many
01:08:59.720
fucking millions of dollars i've passed on i mean dude at this point in time it's tens of
01:09:04.360
millions of dollars i've passed on from companies wanting to advertise on this show or have me rep
01:09:09.480
their shit tens of millions of dollars that i passed on the the only reason i passed on it the
01:09:15.000
only fucking reason well there's two reasons one in every case i wasn't an actual customer of that
01:09:20.680
product um one was a whiskey that i didn't drink one was a shoe i didn't wear and others were like
01:09:26.280
that similar situation uh and two i want my word to mean something and i that's more important to
01:09:33.400
me than fucking any amount of money i want my people to know when they listen to this show uh or buy
01:09:39.000
my products that we actually represent that there's no there's no ulterior motive here i'm telling you
01:09:45.320
what the fuck it is and and that's my most valuable asset my most valuable asset is my authenticity
01:09:50.200
and my ability to communicate what i what i see as the truth and i don't want them to ever question
01:09:55.000
that and that's why i don't do it and in turn that's made our brand much bigger it's made the
01:09:59.880
podcast much bigger it's made all the other companies much bigger because people recognize
01:10:05.480
that you know and so you have to really question when people come to you with an offer is how is
01:10:11.480
this going to play out what's this going to do to my personal brand because guys that we're still in
01:10:16.360
the beginning of personal branding we're still in the end this is still the infancy a lot of you guys
01:10:21.480
think oh man i'm 45 years old and i haven't gotten started bro there is a guy i follow and i can't
01:10:27.080
think of his name he's a pilot uh is he is he the black guy okay so i follow this black guy who's a
01:10:35.720
pilot he's got a big beard i can't think of his name he's fucking super entertaining like super awesome
01:10:41.400
he's probably in his 40s uh does does these really cool calls on them on the on the headset when he's
01:10:49.000
doing you know like he's just an entertaining dude but the point is is like he's building tens
01:10:53.960
of thousands of followers by being authentically him like this guy flies a little bitty airplane
01:10:59.000
i cannot think of his name if you guys can find the name i want to say it because i really enjoy
01:11:02.280
this guy's content because it's fun but uh you're not too late to the game it's just starting you
01:11:07.560
know what i mean and the cool thing is is here and this is the coolest part like tying it back to
01:11:12.280
what you said earlier how it used to be uh help what you said earlier sal about how it used to be
01:11:16.840
about just kind of showy and now it's about authenticity now people are so over the showy
01:11:24.440
shit you don't have to have it to win you used to have to have it to be to win on social now you've
01:11:29.960
just got to have interesting things to say so it really evens the playing field if you if you are
01:11:34.520
comfortable standing with who you are what you believe uh no matter if it goes along with the
01:11:38.920
mainstream narrative or it doesn't or what's popular or it doesn't people will listen to you
01:11:42.760
because they know it's truly coming from what you believe and that's that creates an opportunity to
01:11:47.800
grow a brand you know what i mean it's also less risky legally if everything you're saying is true i
01:11:52.760
mean endorsements and reviews have to be truthful a lot of them aren't but the law is that if you're
01:11:58.360
going to endorse a product that has to reflect your honest beliefs so it's just safer if you're only
01:12:04.120
promoting brands that you actually use and like you don't have to worry about that dude i think i
01:12:09.160
i just i i not only is a good business strategy but i mean like think about your conscience like i
01:12:16.920
could never i don't know it's just me like i couldn't do dj you and i talked about this uh two
01:12:23.000
or three days ago when i was leaving the building i'm like uh i was talking about our pre i have my my
01:12:29.080
megawatt my uh carnitine there and someone asked me had just asked me on my social what do you use
01:12:35.560
for pre-workout and i was able to answer them honestly you know like i took a picture of my
01:12:39.320
locker i'm like here it is this is what i take it's our shit and i said dj we were walking down
01:12:43.320
the building i said you know it's such a good feeling like truly believing in your brand like
01:12:49.480
when i walk around our office and i know that all these people are here for the right reasons i know we
01:12:54.280
make the best products um i know that you know if i i know that we're legitimate and like it feels
01:13:01.000
fucking great to be able to stand behind that and like i was making a comment to him like how do you
01:13:06.680
how could you maybe some people just don't give a fuck but like i i just couldn't stand behind
01:13:12.040
something that wasn't real and wasn't what i felt the best i just couldn't do it you know and it
01:13:17.320
doesn't matter for the money or not but i think having that level of standard and that level of
01:13:21.800
integrity will always lead you to the highest valuable outcome in my in money um because it's
01:13:28.520
real you know well i i mean that's looking back as a retrospective it's a great feeling i think
01:13:37.160
understanding it as a perspective being a new influencer i think the lesson there is don't
01:13:41.720
always just take the money to take the money no you know be you be unequivocally you and if you
01:13:46.280
don't use the product you don't like the brand don't endorse the product don't endorse the brand
01:13:49.880
if you have to pass three or four deals to get to the one that you want make that one you want
01:13:54.600
happen because you're going to be way happier you're going to be way more fulfilled you're
01:13:57.720
going to feel good about representing the product when you're actually posting about it you're not
01:14:01.480
going to feel like it's an ad you're going to feel like it's just part of your life yeah and you'll
01:14:05.000
get followers over a longer time that stick with you too if your page just becomes you know like the ad
01:14:10.280
part of a magazine yeah people aren't going to want to keep tuning into that that's a whole nother
01:14:14.200
problem with social dude these people who are ad whores they go out and they sign deals with 15
01:14:18.920
different companies and every post is some sort of ad they're not even related those people don't
01:14:22.920
convert at all like and a lot of you guys think that's the way they see that as success it's not
01:14:27.640
true i could tell you this when we're looking at influencers which we've we evaluate influencers
01:14:32.120
every fucking tuesday and when i look at them and i look in their link tree and they've got six
01:14:36.600
or seven or eight links it's automatic no it's automatic no because i know they're for sale you know
01:14:42.440
what i'm saying i want to get this out there because this is a i got asked this question yesterday
01:14:47.640
in one of our progression meetings and we have a saying around here there's never a wrong time
01:14:50.920
to do the right thing right it's a vince lombardi quote but we use it hijacked it i'm sure somebody
01:14:55.640
else made it before vince but he gets my credit for it and the question was is how do you know if it's
01:15:02.920
the right thing the answer is if you have to think about it it's probably the wrong thing yeah and your
01:15:09.080
gut should tell you the difference between right and wrong and when there's money attached to it you
01:15:12.360
have to learn to actually disassociate the money from the deal would you take it if it were free
01:15:17.800
yes or no i was talking to megs in the locker room this morning about that he was telling me and cody
01:15:22.280
that about uh about uh he said he was in a meeting with this is our buddy who was just here visiting
01:15:28.680
he played in the nfl and he was saying he was in a meeting at the steelers one time and they had this
01:15:32.920
big playbook that was like 700 pages long and the guy pushed to the side he's like i only got one rule
01:15:38.440
here it's do the right thing there's a right thing and a wrong thing you know the right thing
01:15:43.400
and he goes how do you know when it's the right or the wrong thing and he said the whole room got
01:15:47.320
quiet and jerome betta spoke up and he goes if you got to think about it you already know it's true yeah
01:15:52.520
it's like 75 hard bro like i argue you fuckers come to me with all these questions it's so fucking
01:15:58.040
irritating if you got to ask the answer is the harder thing that's just what it is right like it's all
01:16:03.160
if you come to me and you say should i climb mount everest or should i fucking do a jog around the
01:16:09.400
block i'm gonna say what's the harder thing but and i mean i'm struggling with this personally right
01:16:14.200
now i was telling you you know we're considering because of our kids and mask and all the things
01:16:18.280
that are going on i know you live in in cala china but in missouri we try to navigate those things
01:16:24.120
and i'm trying to get out to where my kids can be in an environment that's normal right and it's going
01:16:29.720
to be inconvenient i'm going to have to uproot a lot of things that i've worked really hard to do
01:16:33.960
over a long period of time it's going to change our lifestyle there's going to be all these things
01:16:37.720
it is by far and away the harder choice without question it's likely the right choice yeah and
01:16:43.960
what i tell you i said bro you're gonna fucking love it yeah and it's hard but right like in in the
01:16:48.120
in the moment and and this happens a thousand times a day for everybody in some way shape or form
01:16:52.440
like you have to look at it and say okay am i being convenient or am i doing the right thing dude let me
01:16:56.520
ask you something no bullshit out of all the harder decisions that you ever had to make
01:17:01.720
the easier the hard how many times you make the hard decision to regret it never okay never makes
01:17:06.840
me think about the thing that goggins says i love that guy yeah he's a stud man his philosophy of do
01:17:12.200
something every day that sucks something i think about a lot to train yourself to get used to choosing
01:17:17.160
the uncomfortable thing yeah versus the easy thing and uh yeah that's like exactly what you're
01:17:22.840
talking about like get used to putting yourself in situations safer ones like am i going to actually
01:17:28.200
wake up at 5 a.m and go to the gym do that because it sucks so that when you have to make real choices
01:17:33.800
that suck you're used to doing that i think i honestly think that's a big issue of what we're
01:17:38.600
seeing in the world today i think people are so comfortable with their lives that they're willing to
01:17:43.320
now back off of things that they personally believe in because it's inconvenient and guys you know
01:17:49.320
that's a testament to where you're going in life in my opinion because if you're going to go with the
01:17:54.520
inconvenient or you're going to go with the convenient route and you're willing to sacrifice
01:17:58.200
some of your personal beliefs to go with convenience where's that line drawn for you where is it going
01:18:03.080
to end for you you know what i'm saying like if you're a lot if you will allow yourself to be compromised
01:18:08.920
uh value wise because for convenience you know i don't know where where does that stop
01:18:17.160
you know i think that's an important question people should be asking themselves you know
01:18:21.240
especially given the current situation um with the tyranny that's happening in this country like
01:18:26.440
at what point is it going to get to be enough to where you decide that you've had enough and
01:18:33.000
the scary thing is is i the way that this subversion works communist subversion works it's very much by
01:18:39.160
design intentional by the time most people wake the fuck up and stand up to it guess what it's too late
01:18:45.080
and that's why i've been so vocal and so political over the last two years because i understand that
01:18:50.360
because i've studied it you know so you know let's get real deep on politics right now and make the show
01:18:59.240
look i mean listen it's i mean there is an impact on social media with it yeah you know well a lot of
01:19:05.320
a lot of influencers bro have completely diluted diluted their brands entirely because they've ignored
01:19:11.000
the topic they people want to know what the fuck you believe because most people feel alone right
01:19:15.640
now yeah well and it's scary right and i think it is scary i mean it's much like courage is always
01:19:20.440
rewarded yeah fucking always well again that's the harder decision right it's easier to be passive
01:19:25.400
and it you know and it's one of those things like you there's a lot of risk there and so it's
01:19:30.040
why most people won't do it it's because they they see the risk reward and they they feel that the
01:19:36.120
risk is not worth the reward but understanding that people value the people who will take the risk
01:19:40.920
and it's just much like taking a shot at getting on social media and trying to start something
01:19:45.800
it's risky you know why because you get vulnerable yeah and that's a that's why when you start looking
01:19:50.520
at people that you value who have great influence who can impact their lives is why people support those
01:19:54.440
people yeah so the you know the lesson to the 20 year old kid is you know perspective is a
01:20:00.600
motherfucker meaning don't sell things don't be about things that you don't understand fully and and
01:20:05.480
and can teach people and can add value to their lives but compounding interest over the next 10
01:20:10.600
years the truth always wins the truth will always win and understanding that if you stand your ground
01:20:16.120
and if you stand for something and you're able to help people through life you can win and that's
01:20:20.040
that's the lesson so what you got for us all right so i got i got i got i got three but uh
01:20:29.320
i got three but let's see let's see how it goes this this first one i mean this sounds like me on a
01:20:37.000
fucking old old saturday sounds like you two and two thumbs in the ass huh yeah missing turkish man
01:20:45.480
joined search party for himself wow they could have wrote this about me
01:20:49.960
hey what happened i don't know what's going on guys so so the story behind this apparently this
01:20:57.880
guy got drunk at a party wandered away from his friends okay his friends call the cops the cops put
01:21:02.840
on this big fucking search party this fucking guy joins the fucking search party and it didn't
01:21:09.400
fucking click in his head until they're yelling his fucking name he's like yo i'm right here
01:21:12.920
i need to be with this guy pretty well that guy that guy how many times did that almost happen to
01:21:19.560
you i mean i don't fucking remember so what yeah i can't believe this dude's got the same name as
01:21:29.480
me yeah what's that you guys you guys befriended another sound fuck you guys man oh dude alcohol
01:21:36.840
two thumbs up hell of a drug two thumbs up there we go for sure thumbs up you guys want to do one
01:21:41.080
more yeah yeah all right here's another one uh since we have rob in studio so this is uh both have
01:21:46.600
to do with cali uh california and and kind of the law but it sounds about sounds about right for
01:21:52.520
california california man sue psychic who said she could remove witch's curse from x oh man there's so
01:21:58.680
much to work with there so yeah i mean so what would you want 25k oh what's 25k in damages yeah we
01:22:04.360
got we got to ask rob i mean what would you do so backstory on this is this man went to go see
01:22:09.400
a psychic uh broke up with his ex-girlfriend and the psychic told him that if he paid her
01:22:15.400
5100 that she could remove the the curse but a thousand dollar deposit ain't been sleeping right
01:22:21.480
since so uh does he have a chance so the idea is like if the curse is removed they'll get back
01:22:27.480
together or something where his life will be be better than it what does he care about his exes
01:22:31.800
being cursed anyway i don't understand what his goal was but yeah i don't know goals to get a
01:22:38.120
thousand dollar deposit back apparently wait so what so what happened here so this so this guy this
01:22:43.800
guy's ex had a witch put a curse on him i see okay okay all right and so the guy went to the psychic
01:22:49.960
and the psychic told him if he pays her 5100 bucks that she could get it removed she could remove it
01:22:56.440
from him got it okay so this is like witch wars yeah i guess so so you hire a witch i hire a witch
01:23:02.280
yeah we'll see how it goes okay it's like suing what's that lady you talk about the beginning of
01:23:05.960
the show miss chloe oh yeah i'll have to follow this one now i'm really curious i'm curious we'll have
01:23:13.960
to circle back yeah we'll circle back on that one i mean almost certainly the guy doesn't have a
01:23:17.640
lawyer and he's representing himself i cannot imagine fifty one hundred dollars yeah especially for that
01:23:23.000
it would be interesting if the if the um psychic hires an attorney and if so who i'll be curious
01:23:28.920
about that and uh see how long it goes but you know it's hard to prove curses i don't think i've
01:23:35.160
seen that done before yeah i don't know man that's tough i'll tell you i was selling uh andy i told
01:23:39.400
do we really need to prove anything anymore yeah but andy i was telling i thought we just threw
01:23:45.160
tantrums and got awarded shit i was telling rob about our story when we went to california how we
01:23:49.400
were driving to the to the farm and there was this lady that was standing in the middle of the
01:23:53.880
park and she was whipping herself whipping herself yeah yeah and like i mean so i saw this hell i'm
01:23:58.040
like california makes it bro they were we were driving to speak at that event we were there for
01:24:02.760
a couple weeks ago and uh we're driving down the road dude and like you see some weird shit in
01:24:07.800
california man like how was the last time you've been there i've okay so it's been a lot san diego
01:24:13.000
nutramar 2015 i'm telling you la is a bizarre place don't go back even the motherfuckers that
01:24:18.520
live there will tell you that like true or not true absolutely true you gotta see some shit every
01:24:22.600
single day that you never saw before yeah ever when today on this particular day what we both saw
01:24:29.080
we had never seen i've never seen them before there was this woman what white lady 400 pounds
01:24:34.360
four or five hundred pounds easy like a large human yeah with a full fucking bullwhip whipping
01:24:40.920
it around her back yeah like in on the side of the street like like twirling it and then like
01:24:46.520
snapping it on her own back like not like super hard or nothing but no yeah no no it probably didn't
01:24:52.280
feel good well the best part of that so i mean we all look at each other right like what the
01:24:57.080
fuck and the driver's like yeah maybe that was her outdoor workout of the day yeah you had to show
01:25:02.120
75 r listen i you know what if you want to whip yourself with a harder option i ain't gonna say
01:25:08.760
it doesn't count hey dude that was some weird it was i take that back last time i was in california
01:25:14.920
was literally when coronavirus hit it's pre-covid i remember it was literally i was in i was in
01:25:18.840
chinatown the same weekend that pelosi was hugging say we should be out hugging each other and i was
01:25:24.440
there i was like literally in the middle of it there's shit on the sidewalks now that i think about
01:25:27.400
it yeah so i retract my statement and what were you there for i just took raquel for oh we're
01:25:31.800
going for jason klipa's dollars that's right that's right auction oh fuck you were in the bay
01:25:35.320
area yeah that's even way worse than fucking la oh dude i mean there's piss and shit down the street
01:25:41.080
la is like gold compared to fucking oakland i mean is it not it is yeah i worked for the oakland
01:25:48.120
district attorney for a summer in law school so that's some interesting field trips during that
01:25:52.200
summer definitely yeah dude it's sad man like it's sad it is like it's like a forgotten people like
01:25:58.440
almost like when you go to dinner like this is what la this is why la bothers me so much like
01:26:05.000
there's such an issue with homelessness um and poverty that it's so common that people don't see
01:26:12.840
it you know it's it's it's like when i'm with my friends from la uh not dan fleischman because
01:26:18.200
fleischman has a charity that actually helps this called model citizen fund um tremendous dude by the
01:26:24.840
the way one of my best friends uh but biggest heart of anybody i know but uh you know if you
01:26:33.000
my other friends right that are just you know like dude you go to dinner with them and like i for me
01:26:39.960
this is just it's hard to do like you go to dinner with them and you're beverly hills at this nice place
01:26:44.920
and you just went in there for four people spent a thousand bucks on fucking dinner and you walk out
01:26:50.120
and there's fucking people that are like literally fucking starving on the on the street like right
01:26:54.280
there like in front of your face and it's not it's not just that they're there it's that the people
01:26:59.160
you're with act like they don't they're not there like that's what bothers me dude like and then and
01:27:04.280
i see all these politicians on tv talking about how they're gonna fix all this shit and then making
01:27:09.560
policy that actually contributes to that even further it's just it's a hard thing for me to wrap my
01:27:15.320
fucking heart around you know what i mean like at some point in this country guys we're gonna have
01:27:20.360
to get real with the problems and stop supporting these people that are just doing it for their own
01:27:24.920
benefit or to line their own pockets we're gonna have to deal and guess what those people are gonna
01:27:29.160
sound uh aggressive when it comes to solving problems because the the answers to hard problems
01:27:36.120
are usually hard you know and uh i give a lot of hate to california but i also have a lot of
01:27:42.040
empathy for the people there because like it's to me it's a situation i would have a heart usually
01:27:47.800
like when i look at problems i can say okay this is how we could solve it we can do this that's
01:27:52.040
that's a situation where i don't even know the fuck i can't even fathom the solution to it because it's
01:27:56.680
so bad like it's it's it's disturbing to me yeah i mean that's really it it's like yeah what it's such
01:28:02.520
an intractable problem or it feels that way that it's like what is the solution i i don't know what
01:28:08.520
the solution is and i my opinion is the people who have been tasked with figuring that out have
01:28:13.240
done a pretty bad job of trying to figure it out yeah and it's but it's like it's one thing to have
01:28:17.560
policies that don't work it's another thing to on top of that make public statements that can only
01:28:24.600
encourage the problem to get worse correct even if they don't reflect what the policy is that you're
01:28:29.960
doing to say stuff that's basically like an open invite to more people to come to california for
01:28:35.400
that purpose it cannot possibly be helpful yeah so it's it's frustrating that people who we look to
01:28:42.600
to uh whether it's you know digesting the science or digesting an economic reality and then convey
01:28:49.560
that message aren't thinking well what's the impact or if they are thinking about it they're thinking
01:28:53.880
about it completely backwards right what's the impact of me saying this about my policy even if
01:28:58.920
that's not the policy and then you act surprised when the problem gets really worse yeah acting surprised
01:29:04.280
and then and then saying you'll fix it so you can get more votes again you know it's a it's it's
01:29:08.680
frustrating dude um you know one of the things that always irritates me when i talk to talk to people
01:29:14.840
that and i say don't you guys like see this shit like what do you think of that their answer is always
01:29:19.560
the same it's always the fucking same bro those people want to live like that that's what they say
01:29:24.680
with a straight face and like do i've talked to plenty of homeless people myself they don't want to
01:29:29.320
fucking live like that they're they're meant there's a lot of mentally ill there's a lot of
01:29:33.400
people that are incapable of taking care of themselves there's a lot of people that have
01:29:36.920
no literal no other options or help fell on a time where there was no option for them but to to live that
01:29:43.080
way and you know to walk right past it and not care or not notice it and like like i don't know man
01:29:50.840
it's just it's hard for me to go there because of it you know what i mean yeah and i mean it's harder
01:29:55.400
and harder to not care about it because the problem is getting so much worse so rapidly but
01:29:59.720
there's not that many areas you can go to where you're not going to see that in your face every
01:30:03.640
day so eventually something is going to have to happen because you can't really just escape it even
01:30:08.440
if you only dine out in beverly hills you're it's there it's there it's on every sidewalk yeah exactly
01:30:13.960
you know that do you ever been in that restaurant the little door yeah yeah so that's one of the
01:30:17.480
places i like to go to out there and uh um i don't know if he still owns it but at one point
01:30:22.600
lawrence fishburn was the owner or part owner yeah they only got a little one shooter bathroom
01:30:27.240
in there you know you know how they got that little bitty bathroom and one time i was there
01:30:30.920
and i'm standing in line and there's like four dudes in in front of me and then there's you know
01:30:35.960
a guy walks up behind me i don't see who it is and he's like man you guys sure are taking a long
01:30:40.040
time i'm like fuck this i think that's morpheus i turn around sure as fuck there he was like
01:30:44.920
standing there looking at me like i'm in the fucking matrix and he's like yeah i own this place and i'm
01:30:48.600
like cool place and like made like a couple dick jokes like you know about us going in the one
01:30:53.800
single shooter playing swords and shit and then he bought me a beer and fucking it was just like
01:30:58.520
no big deal but that was kind of cool that is cool two thumbs up morpheus awesome dude
01:31:04.920
you know what is two thumbs in awesome dude he's a big dude too he's not a little guy really yeah
01:31:09.320
like he's a big guy like but he's close to my size almost as handsome big thumbs yeah one more or
01:31:17.800
no yeah i got one more yeah you're sleeping no we talk a lot about you know starting a little
01:31:23.320
for cellaville right yeah i'm down cool so here you go tennessee town just listed for sale
01:31:29.400
whole town a whole well what's included a one house and four general stores
01:31:37.080
that sounds like a it's a good starting place that sounds like an all right thing man you get to live
01:31:41.960
by yourself run four businesses i'll tell you what that's a highly competitive environment though
01:31:45.720
one house and four stores i mean you gotta really have to earn that business man yeah no
01:31:49.400
shit motherfuckers don't want to compete against me oh yeah motherfucker if you ran that business
01:31:53.800
you'd be selling shit to people in your own house that's right and that store would stay open
01:31:59.800
and so here we are all right we would be paying the bills that's all you need to know about that's
01:32:04.440
what you're talking about earlier about trusting people with your money i was gonna tell
01:32:06.840
anderson look what happens you trust me with your money about a city all right so final thoughts
01:32:13.240
so i think you know the show you know bounced around a few few places but i think as a whether
01:32:19.640
you're a business owner who has struggled to get into social or struggling with social or a young
01:32:24.200
person trying to understand the fundamentals of social it's here to stay it's not going anywhere
01:32:29.240
and i think the argument for um the fact that you need to start developing these skills now is here
01:32:36.600
like you have to do it it's a non-negotiable and so you know the the fearful things in life are
01:32:41.720
are usually the right choice or the things that scare you the most or the things that you should
01:32:44.920
do and challenge yourself with and so my challenge to you is hey listen it's really hard to get
01:32:49.640
vulnerable it's really hard to to tell your to speak your truth and be you however the long-term
01:32:54.440
investment payout on that is invaluable and i think let's clarify vulnerable there real quick
01:33:00.200
because a lot of people hear vulnerable and they think like tell your sob story no no no humility in
01:33:04.440
the sense of you know making sure that like hey when you know you know and tell them that you know
01:33:08.280
and stand for what you know when you don't know don't have an opinion it's okay vulnerable enough
01:33:11.480
to be authentic correct what he's saying yeah and i think you know one of the best things that i've
01:33:15.400
done for my own personal brand is like hey man like i fuck i struggle too you know goddamn i'm
01:33:19.560
struggling right now you know what i mean like and that's part of life you're going to struggle and
01:33:23.480
learning social media is part of is just one of those struggles guess what i've been through that
01:33:28.680
struggle too i remember the very first post i made i remember talking to the first influencer i
01:33:33.240
remember all of these things i've been there i do that i've done that i understand that and so
01:33:36.920
sharing those struggles has been very valuable to building a career and i would suggest that if
01:33:42.200
you're struggling to get into the game start today start to tackle those struggles and in 10 years
01:33:47.080
you're going to you're going to look back as one of the best decisions you ever made what was
01:33:49.960
the what was the scariest piece of content for you to ever make i think the first time i had to do
01:33:55.160
a video um on a story when stories came out and had to do a video it was really it was really
01:34:01.720
humbling because man you had to you know you had only 15 seconds to make it work remember when we
01:34:05.800
used to shoot these things and you had to be really good in 15 seconds and you had to get
01:34:08.840
it done and you had to try to that's no problem for you though it's not um i mean if you've seen
01:34:12.600
any of my early instagram videos no way dude they're awesome he doesn't he's thinking he's
01:34:18.440
talking about two thumbs in his ass no no yeah early early instagrams were extremely creative
01:34:25.240
because you only had 15 seconds to make it work you know i enjoyed instagram better when it was
01:34:28.920
that way it was fun because well but you had it forced creativity not only does it force
01:34:33.240
creativity but you had to you had to get really get uncomfortable and being silly kind of too
01:34:37.560
because it forced you to to kind of like all right well you know i mean there's the the mullet video
01:34:41.560
and us that's the best one ever yeah and and you do all these stupid videos you know and and of
01:34:47.160
course do you think i want to put on a fake fucking mullet do an infomercial no i was fucking 30
01:34:51.400
fucking two years old i was about to have my son like no i look like a fucking asshole no you didn't
01:34:55.320
everybody loved it it was awesome you know and and that was where the one take sal thing came out
01:34:59.720
it's like i they put a wig on me i fucking knocked that motherfucker down and walked the
01:35:02.920
fuck out because i had shit to do right and you start understanding like all right you got to do
01:35:06.520
all these creative things well you're going to look like a fucking asshole people are going to laugh at
01:35:10.360
you people are going to find value in the fact that you can have enough humility for people to laugh
01:35:15.080
at you but still try to help yeah all right good shit rob what's your final thoughts i was thinking
01:35:21.000
when you were saying that like you have to be willing to be bad at something for a while to
01:35:24.440
eventually be able to get good at it and a lot of people i think are don't get started because
01:35:29.640
they're afraid to be bad at it i think i don't put out a lot of like it's not that creative but
01:35:35.480
still getting in front of the video for the first time that i didn't like that at all i still don't
01:35:39.160
really like it but i understand like it gets easier and you get better at it and there's a lot
01:35:44.360
of opportunity on the other side of doing stuff that you don't want to do sort of like we were
01:35:48.360
talking about earlier and you kind of just have to be willing to be bad at something for a while
01:35:52.520
i think i think also too one of the big hang-ups that people have about con video content is like
01:35:57.640
you think like it's got to be perfect right like you you have this idea that you got to make this
01:36:01.560
video perfect and when you first start you know you're going to make it 400 times just like when
01:36:06.200
you you know back in our day we used to record our own voice on our answering machines right or a
01:36:10.840
voicemail yeah and we'd record it a hundred times but god that fucking sucks you literally said the
01:36:15.400
same thing 400 fucking times nobody gives a yeah like everybody knows the beep is coming that's when they
01:36:20.280
want to talk you know so like realize that nobody's as critical uh on you as you are yourself right
01:36:27.960
those little mistakes that you make and those little things those are actually endearing they're endearing
01:36:32.920
qualities to the people watching because they real make they it makes you real it makes you you're you're
01:36:38.840
out there on the internet and it inspires other people and they say you know what i like this guy he's
01:36:43.240
a real dude he's authentic so like don't get caught up in the perfect game just get caught up in the
01:36:48.520
do it game yeah yeah there's those perfect polished instagram feeds those days are over yeah they're
01:36:53.560
over don't care about that anymore no because everybody knows it's bullshit you know we all
01:36:57.160
because we all did it we all sat there did the video 400 times and then we're like now we know what
01:37:03.000
that guy did to get that and it's just not what we want what do you think yeah i i think what sal
01:37:08.360
touched on a lot earlier about this authentic authenticity off shit authenticity that ain't
01:37:15.320
still not it that ain't it authenticity authenticity so you haven't learned to be authentic yet so you
01:37:20.360
can't they haven't graduated saying the word gotcha 15 seconds um no but i think i think about it and i
01:37:26.040
think about like what what my job my role in that is right and so you know i think the consumers the
01:37:32.280
people who aren't in that category of influencers your responsibility is to support those who are
01:37:37.880
being authentic people who are sharing the right values sharing the right messages and be be supportive of
01:37:42.840
those people and stop following these fake people that are just flexing that that that are giving
01:37:47.880
you absolutely zero value go support the people who are actually doing it and actually standing up
01:37:52.760
