00:00:00.000 What is up guys, it's Andy Priscilla and this is the show for the realists, say goodbye
00:00:20.840 to the lies, to figness and delusions of modern society and welcome to motherfucking reality.
00:00:25.160 Guys, today we have Q and AF, all right, if you're unfamiliar, if it's your first time
00:00:30.380 listening, that means question and answer as fuck, I think, I'm not sure, but anyhow,
00:00:39.720 if you're new, we got a couple different things that you need to understand here.
00:00:42.940 Number one, we have a fee for the show, the fee is $1,000 right to my Venmo, which I don't
00:00:47.800 have, or you can share the show.
00:00:51.120 Secondly, if you're new, we have multiple different formats of the show, okay?
00:00:57.620 We have CTI, which stands for Cruise the Internet, which is where we talk about the news and we
00:01:02.260 kind of make it funny, but we also kind of get the main points out and point out the problems
00:01:07.240 that we have going on in society.
00:01:09.760 Then we have Q and AF, which is what you're going to hear today, which is where we answer
00:01:13.840 questions that are the solution for the problems that we point out in society.
00:01:18.620 And then we have Real Talk, which is basically, you know, personal development talk that a
00:01:23.360 lot of people may or may not enjoy listening to, but at the end of the day, it's going to
00:01:28.040 make you better.
00:01:28.960 And then we have Full Length, which is where I bring on interesting people, people who kick
00:01:33.680 ass and they teach us all how they kicked ass.
00:01:37.000 And that's what we do here.
00:01:38.320 So in regards to the fee, if you get value out of the show, which I think you will, please
00:01:45.140 share the show, all right?
00:01:46.460 This message, imagine, and for those of you to listen to the show, imagine if you had all
00:01:52.260 shared the show starting two plus years ago, every single time we had got the word out
00:01:56.940 that I've been talking about for the last two years, would we be in this position?
00:01:59.960 No, we wouldn't be.
00:02:01.100 So it's important that you share the show.
00:02:03.340 It's important that you help us grow it because I'm one of the few motherfuckers that's
00:02:06.660 going to actually talk about how we're going to fix it.
00:02:08.760 So I would appreciate your help with that.
00:02:10.760 Now, with that being said, what's up?
00:02:14.560 What's going on, man?
00:02:15.480 Nothing, man.
00:02:16.360 And guys, remember too, as always, if you want to, you can email your, submit your questions
00:02:20.540 in, guys.
00:02:21.280 These questions come from you.
00:02:23.060 Email those questions in to askandy at andyforceller.com.
00:02:27.680 Yeah.
00:02:28.260 Yeah.
00:02:28.440 What's going on?
00:02:29.060 Nothing, man.
00:02:29.740 It's been, what, about a week?
00:02:31.480 Yeah.
00:02:32.160 Yeah, it's been a busy week.
00:02:33.120 We had a Arte Syndicate Summit, which was amazing.
00:02:38.140 Then we had Ed Milet's book launch for his new book that is amazing.
00:02:46.600 That was in North Carolina.
00:02:47.900 We flew out, gave a little talk, flew back.
00:02:51.720 It's been Memorial Day weekend.
00:02:53.620 You know, there's lots of shit going on.
00:02:55.160 Yeah.
00:02:55.400 People messaged me like, where's the show?
00:02:58.140 Which is great.
00:02:58.800 I appreciate it because it means that you guys miss it.
00:03:00.820 But, you know.
00:03:01.380 Do they take you guys down?
00:03:02.420 Yeah.
00:03:03.700 Not yet.
00:03:05.060 Maybe this will be the one.
00:03:06.700 But, you know, hey, sometimes we got to take a breather here.
00:03:11.000 You know, these guys here in the show, work on the show.
00:03:13.720 We've got a full crew.
00:03:16.600 Sometimes we all need a little breather, man.
00:03:18.540 That's not even more than that, bro.
00:03:19.580 Like, what I've been getting, people forget.
00:03:22.180 Like, bro, you actually, like, run businesses.
00:03:24.920 You know what I'm saying?
00:03:25.440 So it's like, you do got a daily checklist of shit you got to get done, too.
00:03:29.260 Right?
00:03:29.460 So it's like, people tend to forget about that, too.
00:03:32.140 Yeah.
00:03:32.360 I mean, this is not my main gig.
00:03:33.720 Right.
00:03:34.140 Yeah.
00:03:35.280 You know, maybe one day it could be, but it's not right now.
00:03:38.520 So if I wanted to be, I could be.
00:03:40.960 You know, if I wanted to charge for ads.
00:03:42.740 And, I mean, we could turn this into a strong eight-figure-a-year podcast.
00:03:47.660 Yeah.
00:03:48.940 But, I mean, the truth is, I don't really like doing that, first of all, because I don't
00:03:54.100 like being beholden to anybody else.
00:03:55.840 Like, I want to say what the fuck I want to say.
00:03:57.480 I want to say what I believed is right and what is wrong.
00:03:59.840 And I don't want someone else thinking, because they pay me money on the show, that they can
00:04:05.200 control what the fuck I say or not say.
00:04:06.900 Like, I see what they do to Rogan sometimes, and I can't stand that shit.
00:04:09.700 You know, but, I mean, if someone was going to fucking pay me $200 fucking million, I'd
00:04:15.260 probably think about it a little bit more.
00:04:16.660 Right.
00:04:16.940 But I'm certainly not doing it for money I don't need.
00:04:19.300 Right.
00:04:21.120 And, honestly, I don't think I would do it for any money.
00:04:24.820 I don't think, I think if I wanted that kind of deal, I could go out and get that deal.
00:04:28.060 You know what I'm saying?
00:04:29.000 Well, because you also understand, too, like how bad the persuasions and the power.
00:04:33.740 Yeah, Joe does an amazing job navigating that.
00:04:36.280 100%.
00:04:36.600 Yeah, I mean, bro, he's, he, dude's a fucking amazing fucking, I mean, we're lucky, we're
00:04:42.280 lucky as Americans to have that dude right now.
00:04:45.260 Yeah.
00:04:45.700 For real.
00:04:46.300 He's definitely made Spotify sweat a few times.
00:04:49.060 If Spotify was smart, they would swing the other way and just go with him.
00:04:52.000 He is the media right now.
00:04:53.900 So.
00:04:54.960 That's true, though.
00:04:57.000 Yeah, man, we got some good ones for you, man.
00:04:58.900 Let's knock these out.
00:04:59.720 Andy, question number one, can you explain to us what makes people loyal to a brand, right?
00:05:07.680 You've talked about how important personal branding is in the past.
00:05:11.360 What would you say is the best way to make people loyal to your brand?
00:05:15.460 Dude, it's super easy.
00:05:17.200 Most people who try to create loyalty, they ask the question like this.
00:05:23.180 What can I do to make my customers think I care about them?
00:05:27.620 What's the answer to that?
00:05:28.580 It's nothing.
00:05:30.120 Hold on.
00:05:30.480 What's the answer?
00:05:31.080 Actually care about them.
00:05:32.020 Actually give a fuck about it.
00:05:33.580 It's real simple.
00:05:34.720 Okay.
00:05:35.020 Most of you guys are caught up in this manipulation mindset.
00:05:38.420 How can I trick my customers into thinking we care?
00:05:41.760 And when you shift the perspective from that, which is 99% of businesses to actually caring,
00:05:51.220 right?
00:05:51.400 Actually providing a valuable service or a product that changes people's experience.
00:05:56.640 And it doesn't have to be, you know, it could be anything.
00:06:01.260 Like if you're making fucking French fries, bro, make the best fucking French fries there
00:06:04.620 are, right?
00:06:05.520 Like you could take this to anything.
00:06:07.100 Right.
00:06:07.580 And people think, you know, oh, well, what if I sell tires?
00:06:10.780 Well, get a, get a way, create a way that you create value for that family in ways that
00:06:17.840 the competition doesn't.
00:06:19.040 And that it's really simple.
00:06:20.480 You just have to care.
00:06:21.560 And so many people are caught up because of the way Instagram is and the way this society
00:06:28.860 is about manipulating the customer.
00:06:32.520 And like, dude, that's old thinking.
00:06:34.380 Like that's, that's big media thinking from the 70 years of the invention of radio and
00:06:41.020 television to the invention of, of, uh, social media.
00:06:45.020 And what people don't understand when I say that is, okay, when, when you have no customer
00:06:50.360 feedback, you can, and we just have TV and we just have radio, we can run ads and kind
00:06:56.060 of promise whatever the fuck we want, because it takes years and years and years for customers
00:06:59.940 to like, to talk.
00:07:01.340 Right.
00:07:01.980 But when you create an instant feedback vacuum, like you have a social media, now you have
00:07:06.640 to actually deliver what you promise or everybody's going to know.
00:07:09.300 And the problem is most of these entrepreneurs out there are trying to give the very least
00:07:14.440 and, and charge the very most.
00:07:16.080 And that doesn't perpetuate loyalty loyalty is I'm here for you.
00:07:20.220 I solve your problems.
00:07:21.500 I care about you.
00:07:22.620 Even if it doesn't make me a fucking dollar today or $10 or a hundred dollars, or even make
00:07:27.400 me money anytime you should be in the, in the business of solving people's shit.
00:07:33.020 And if you actually care to improve people's life, the loyalty, we will become natural.
00:07:37.500 It will become organic and people will value that and trying to manipulate the loyalty.
00:07:43.260 I mean, look, there's definitely a system for this, how to do it, but the intention of
00:07:48.440 following the system is what matters, right?
00:07:52.020 Like if I gave you a step-by-step guide on how to create loyal customers, which I do inside
00:07:57.280 Arte Syndicate all the fucking time, um, you, if you execute that with the wrong intent, like
00:08:02.880 if you execute, yeah, if you execute that with the intent of, I'm still trying to get the
00:08:07.360 most and give the least, that's what you're not going to get anything.
00:08:12.040 Okay.
00:08:12.440 So the intent always has to be right.
00:08:14.720 And if you could fix the intent within yourself about how you provide, uh, you know, what kind
00:08:21.240 of teammate are you?
00:08:22.180 Are you, are you the teammate who, um, wants everybody to like, look up to them?
00:08:27.920 Are you the teammate that serves your team?
00:08:29.700 Um, do you understand what I'm saying?
00:08:33.000 Are you, are you a business who's there to make as much money as possible?
00:08:36.420 Or are you a business that exists to solve people's problems?
00:08:39.480 If you ask people, most people, if you walk up to them on the street, say, Hey, why do
00:08:43.320 businesses exist?
00:08:44.620 Their answer is always almost 99.99999% of the answer will be, what do you think?
00:08:50.560 Make money.
00:08:51.100 To make money.
00:08:51.820 And it is not to make money.
00:08:53.060 Right.
00:08:53.340 The purpose of business is to solve fucking problems.
00:08:56.080 That's it.
00:08:57.440 Yeah.
00:08:57.640 And so if you want to create a brand that people care about, that love, that they make
00:09:02.100 a part of their life, that they include in their decision-making of where they're going
00:09:06.260 to spend their money, you have to care about them first, not last.
00:09:10.180 And this same, this same, like if you have trouble in a team, if you're somebody who has
00:09:15.380 trouble working with others, it's the same adjustment that needs to be made.
00:09:19.040 Take the fucking focus off the self.
00:09:21.260 Okay.
00:09:21.760 Don't worry about the credit you receive and worry instead about the value you deliver.
00:09:26.080 And then the credit will come naturally.
00:09:27.720 Right.
00:09:28.180 Right.
00:09:28.660 Right.
00:09:29.020 So it's all just a perspective adjustment.
00:09:31.860 Would you say there's like a massive vacuum of that right now though?
00:09:34.200 Cause like, I feel like there's a lot of faceless companies that are just like, it's just
00:09:38.580 a brand name.
00:09:39.180 There's no, there's no value, real value exchange.
00:09:42.260 Like, what are you really getting from Amazon ordering, you know, pressing a couple of buttons.
00:09:46.020 You know what I'm saying?
00:09:46.540 Like there's a massive, what people want that.
00:09:49.440 Okay.
00:09:49.920 All right.
00:09:50.340 I agree with you.
00:09:51.400 Yeah.
00:09:51.760 But what's that mean for the entrepreneur?
00:09:53.900 It means they got to do it.
00:09:54.940 No, no, no.
00:09:56.080 What's it mean?
00:09:56.860 Uh, there's an opportunity, huge opportunity, huge opportunity for you guys out there who,
00:10:02.740 you know, you guys look at that.
00:10:04.200 Like, you know, I look at the Nike of the world, right?
00:10:08.160 Like I, I, people think that I hate Nike.
00:10:10.380 It's not that I hate Nike.
00:10:11.420 I admire the fuck out of what they've done.
00:10:13.620 They've just gone astray.
00:10:15.180 Okay.
00:10:15.860 Um, they don't represent American culture the way that most Americans believe American culture
00:10:19.980 should be.
00:10:20.480 Um, you know, I see Nike as an amazing company, one of the most iconic brands in the world,
00:10:27.000 but I also see people every single day fucking becoming disenfranchised with them.
00:10:31.160 You know what I see there?
00:10:31.980 I see an opportunity, right?
00:10:34.740 Right.
00:10:34.980 And that's how we have to look at it.
00:10:36.380 And you guys, as entrepreneurs, especially you young men and women that are listening,
00:10:40.860 you guys are the future.
00:10:42.500 Like you're the future Nikes, you're the future, you're the future fucking, uh, big techs.
00:10:47.080 You're the future.
00:10:47.840 Like, I know that's hard to, that's hard to comprehend when you're 20 years old and you
00:10:52.400 don't have shit and you're eating fucking ramen, but like all those motherfuckers were
00:10:56.740 doing the same thing.
00:10:58.040 Right.
00:10:58.840 So where's the opportunity and how can you capitalize on their lack of care to benefit your own
00:11:05.500 brand?
00:11:06.140 That's how I would be examining this scenario.
00:11:08.340 Yeah.
00:11:09.640 You know?
00:11:10.240 So it's a massive opportunity because the people want it.
00:11:14.100 Listen, bro.
00:11:14.800 I don't think that the per, I don't think the opportunity in business has ever been better
00:11:19.120 ever, ever.
00:11:19.920 I think it's, I think it's massive, especially culturally.
00:11:23.560 You know, people do not want to support and it's financially proven, bro.
00:11:29.100 CNN, they had to lay off hundreds of people.
00:11:31.900 CNN plus fucking done.
00:11:34.040 Netflix fucking got their ass beat until they said, Hey, uh, fuck you.
00:11:38.240 We're not standing for that.
00:11:39.320 We shouldn't do that.
00:11:40.260 Yeah.
00:11:40.840 Um, Carhartt, uh, fucking Disney Disney.
00:11:44.220 Like, bro, the, the data is there, right?
00:11:46.740 The data is there.
00:11:47.500 People are done spending their money with companies that do not represent the agenda
00:11:53.740 of America first.
00:11:55.260 That's the truth.
00:11:56.160 This globalist, politically correct, super ultra woke strategy is clearly failing.
00:12:03.480 And if you decide to go that route with your brand, after all the data that is, that is
00:12:08.640 available for you, like, you know, you probably shouldn't be in business cause you're stupid.
00:12:13.380 Right.
00:12:13.600 So, and I don't say that to insult anybody, but you have to be able to look at the real
00:12:18.160 data of what people are wanting and deliver that.
00:12:20.140 Those free business lessons right there, man.
00:12:21.960 Here, if you're paying attention.
00:12:23.120 Yeah.
00:12:23.560 Yeah.
00:12:24.640 I mean, Top Gun had just one of the highest grossing, uh, weekends of all time.
00:12:29.200 There's no woke shit in it.
00:12:30.460 What's that tell you?
00:12:31.420 Yeah.
00:12:32.140 What's that tell you?
00:12:33.340 Question number two, Andy.
00:12:34.280 Uh, I'm naturally a quiet and reserved person.
00:12:37.680 I now manage a team of people at my job and I'm struggling with getting their buy-in because
00:12:42.740 of how I am.
00:12:43.900 How do I become more outgoing and establish myself as a good leader to my new team?
00:12:50.440 Well, first of all, being outgoing is that's a skill in itself.
00:12:55.060 Okay.
00:12:55.780 Um, I'm an introvert.
00:12:57.380 I'm not an outgoing, passionate person by nature.
00:13:00.100 You guys think I am, but you don't realize the practice that went into becoming me.
00:13:04.280 And I have, uh, intentionally exercised my skillset and I've talked about this before,
00:13:13.440 but I'll mention it again.
00:13:14.320 You know, I used to go into a grocery store every day for years and not leave until I introduced
00:13:19.960 myself to three random people.
00:13:21.700 And I did that because my people skills were weak.
00:13:24.080 And I knew that if I needed, I knew if I wanted to become what I wanted to become, I
00:13:27.900 needed good people skills.
00:13:29.000 Yeah.
00:13:29.160 So I practiced them.
00:13:30.580 Um, so that's the first thing to say.
00:13:32.240 It's like you, you, you, you, you can build those skills.
00:13:36.300 All right.
00:13:36.880 It's not, it's not a trait.
00:13:38.200 It's something that you practice and become.
00:13:40.660 That's the first thing.
00:13:41.700 Second thing is, um, there's a million different leadership styles and not all of them have
00:13:45.760 to be like mine.
00:13:47.320 Outgoing.
00:13:47.880 Yeah.
00:13:48.180 Like I, like I, in fact, I would say my leadership style isn't even that outgoing.
00:13:55.660 I would say it's what you guys see when you see a video clip or you see me on the podcast
00:14:00.840 and my, you know, a short clip for two to three minutes, you see me like getting passionate
00:14:07.340 and shit and you assume that's how I am all the time.
00:14:09.640 I know because you guys fucking message my wife and you say, what's it like living with
00:14:14.420 Andy?
00:14:14.680 I bet it's super motivating.
00:14:15.880 What the fuck do you guys think, dude?
00:14:17.600 Like I'm not like that all the time.
00:14:19.160 And I think, you know, there's a time and place for fire and brimstone and, and getting
00:14:23.520 people hype.
00:14:24.240 And there, there's also a time and place for bringing people back down.
00:14:27.320 Yeah.
00:14:27.680 Okay.
00:14:27.980 And, and great leaders, they understand the inverse relationship of that.
00:14:31.700 They understand that when everybody's panicked and everybody's uncertain and everybody's
00:14:35.260 fucking upset that that's your cue to bring people back down a level, let them know it's
00:14:39.380 going to be okay.
00:14:39.960 So that takes calmness.
00:14:41.200 That takes certainty.
00:14:42.580 Right.
00:14:43.180 Yeah.
00:14:43.520 Um, when people are complacent and when they're not understanding the urgency, that's when your job
00:14:49.080 is to bring them up to that urgency level.
00:14:51.380 You do that with passion.
00:14:52.640 You do that with emotion.
00:14:53.580 You do that with, with, uh, with, you know, maybe a little bit of, of, uh, enthusiasm or
00:14:58.620 a lot, you know?
00:14:59.560 So there's, you can't judge yourself on how your leadership style is based upon what someone
00:15:06.840 else does or says.
00:15:08.500 Um, in fact, I think some of the most powerful leaders in the world are literally some of the
00:15:15.320 calmest people in the world, 98% of the time.
00:15:19.180 So, um, I'd be real careful to think that you're somehow lacking as a leader because you're
00:15:26.060 not naturally some sort of, uh, charismatic person.
00:15:29.400 Yeah.
00:15:30.080 You know what I'm saying?
00:15:30.600 That's real.
00:15:31.380 And like, dude, I don't know the data on it, but I mean, I would say even outside of just
00:15:34.900 leadership, man, I think people, we have lost those interpersonal like skills of just
00:15:39.980 like knowing how to go up to a random person and just say, Hey, I think anybody should be
00:15:43.400 practicing that stuff.
00:15:44.440 Yeah, of course.
00:15:45.080 Look at everybody's on these phones and it's like, when's the last time you shook a person's
00:15:49.580 hand and yeah, but dude, the thing is, and here's the, here's the, there's opportunity
00:15:53.680 in that too.
00:15:54.500 Yeah.
00:15:54.840 So let's say you're a 20 year old.
00:15:56.580 So, so dude, let's go back to when I was 20.
00:15:58.600 Yeah.
00:15:59.680 When I was 20 years old, there wasn't smartphones.
00:16:02.180 Okay.
00:16:02.500 It wasn't a thing.
00:16:03.380 Like you didn't have social media.
00:16:04.680 It wasn't a thing.
00:16:05.400 Yeah.
00:16:05.760 All right.
00:16:06.040 If you wanted to be successful in life, you had to know how to walk up to someone, initiate
00:16:11.640 a conversation and create a good interaction.
00:16:14.660 You had to know it.
00:16:15.620 Yeah.
00:16:15.800 Now you don't necessarily have to know it because the technology has replaced that aspect.
00:16:21.200 And what you have is you have a lot of people out there who are, who, who are not skilled
00:16:26.880 in interpersonal dynamics or relationships who would be much more successful if they were
00:16:33.380 because the people that are around them have zero people skills.
00:16:36.680 Right.
00:16:36.940 So if you're in a socially awkward, yes, bro, look, the people who are 20 years old right
00:16:41.780 now and 20, 20 to 30, they actually like 15 to 30, you, you guys out there, you have
00:16:50.420 a tremendous opportunity to get way ahead of everybody to your left and to your right
00:16:54.160 by just developing good people skills.
00:16:56.060 That shit that I had to have just to even function.
00:16:59.060 Right.
00:16:59.460 Right.
00:16:59.680 That's how far gone we've gone with it.
00:17:01.460 So if I was a young person and I'm looking at how I could create every single advantage
00:17:05.740 I can over everybody else, which is how you have to look at it.
00:17:08.500 Right.
00:17:09.180 The idea of everybody holding hands, singing Kumbaya and fucking, you know, blah, blah,
00:17:13.620 blah, blah, blah.
00:17:14.180 Like that shit's bullshit.
00:17:15.340 All right.
00:17:15.740 You have to be looking at yourself as a fucking, I am my own force and I need skills.
00:17:21.820 I need, I need tactics.
00:17:23.160 I need to understand how to do these things that my peers don't have.
00:17:28.080 And when you're a young person, it's important to think like that.
00:17:30.680 What skills can I develop that my like-minded peers of the certain age don't have?
00:17:36.100 And how can I develop them?
00:17:37.560 And by doing so, you become, you stand out naturally because everybody else is abandoning
00:17:42.800 those ideas.
00:17:43.640 Yeah.
00:17:44.240 That's the, that's the thing with technology, man.
00:17:45.900 It's like, there's, has there been great advancements?
00:17:48.320 Of course.
00:17:48.760 Right.
00:17:49.040 But like at what cost, you know what I'm saying?
00:17:51.340 Like, and now I think there's a massive segment of the population that's just socially awkward.
00:17:55.080 Yeah.
00:17:55.460 And like, it's, it's, it's really, really sad.
00:17:57.440 So, I mean, I just thought we should point that out.
00:17:59.500 Well, I mean, also like, but knowing that it is a skill to build though.
00:18:03.780 Yeah.
00:18:03.940 But like, dude, look what they've done.
00:18:06.020 Like they've created a technology where everybody gets sucked into the technology.
00:18:12.180 And then on the technology, they tell you that everybody hates you.
00:18:17.960 Okay.
00:18:18.400 And they tell you that, you know, for whatever reason, okay.
00:18:21.620 Maybe, maybe it's racism.
00:18:23.200 Maybe it's misogyny.
00:18:24.900 Maybe it's a difference of political beliefs.
00:18:27.760 Maybe it's this, maybe it's that, maybe it's this.
00:18:29.860 But every single person that looks at the phone has a reason as to why society doesn't like them.
00:18:36.660 Okay.
00:18:37.180 And what does that do?
00:18:38.220 That creates more dependence on the phone.
00:18:40.480 Because why would I leave the phone to go talk to someone who might probably hate me according to what they say on the phone?
00:18:47.560 All right.
00:18:48.100 So like, we have to understand that the mental abuse that's happening here is designed for you to spend more minutes on your phone, not less.
00:18:55.740 Right.
00:18:56.580 And that is mental abuse, bro.
00:18:58.020 This is no different.
00:18:58.820 What they do is no different than what they did to POWs.
00:19:01.440 Yeah.
00:19:02.080 People don't really understand that.
00:19:03.360 So like, when you look at your phone and you see, you know, oh, fuck, man, fucking racism.
00:19:10.420 Oh, fuck, man.
00:19:11.960 Fucking misogyny.
00:19:12.940 Oh, fuck, man.
00:19:14.680 Transphobic.
00:19:15.120 Oh, fuck.
00:19:16.100 Everybody fucking hates everybody.
00:19:17.900 Are you really that much likely to go talk to people in real life?
00:19:20.640 Or are you more likely to stay in the fucking place where no one's really fucking with you?
00:19:24.940 And what do they find when they get off their phone and they go out in real life?
00:19:27.880 Oh, it's amazing.
00:19:28.880 What do you find?
00:19:29.500 There's nothing like that.
00:19:30.680 It's nothing like what they describe on the phone.
00:19:32.900 You guys understand what I'm saying?
00:19:35.100 Yeah.
00:19:35.520 So it's a big deal that people fucking develop these skills so that you can understand the
00:19:39.780 truth of what actual society is really like, you know?
00:19:43.620 Or, I mean, on the other side, too, bro, like they'll post these, they'll make a post
00:19:47.540 that make it sad or whatever it is just to get that one like or a couple of comments.
00:19:50.720 Oh, well, that's a whole nother thing.
00:19:52.000 That's the virtue signaling.
00:19:55.220 That's the victim virtue signal.
00:19:56.780 Yeah.
00:19:57.020 But like psychologically, that's triggering that dopamine release, right?
00:20:00.040 Of course.
00:20:00.100 Like, and that's what's keeping you coming back to it.
00:20:01.940 Yeah.
00:20:02.040 Yeah.
00:20:02.360 And what people don't understand is that when you victimize yourself in a post over and
00:20:05.780 over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and you get
00:20:09.360 likes and likes and likes and shares and shares and shares, what you've done is create a mental
00:20:12.940 identity for yourself as a victim, which becomes impossible for you to escape from.
00:20:16.740 Because if your whole identity for attention and dopamine that you get from social media
00:20:20.420 is built around your own victimhood and your self-talk of how hard you have it and how
00:20:24.480 fucking sick you are and how everybody thinks this about you and how this, this, this.
00:20:28.700 First of all, dude, you need to understand no one really gives a fuck about you, right?
00:20:32.160 No one really cares.
00:20:33.420 And, and that you could take that one of two ways.
00:20:35.560 You could take that as, oh, I'm so sad that nobody cares.
00:20:38.100 Or you could take it as, hey, I can live my life any way I want because no one gives
00:20:40.980 a fuck.
00:20:41.420 Right.
00:20:41.860 All right.
00:20:42.240 And I would choose the latter because that's the truth.
00:20:44.500 A lot of people have an inflated sense of self-importance and, um, they don't realize
00:20:49.220 by overly victimizing themselves instead of just being transparent, right?
00:20:53.560 Transparency is not my sad story every single day because you're not a fucking sad story
00:20:57.280 every single day.
00:20:58.760 Transparency is, hey, I'm, I'm doing good.
00:21:00.700 I got to get this, this, this, share your wins, not your losses.
00:21:03.240 Share the good things, not the negative.
00:21:05.380 That's a cultural change that needs to happen.
00:21:07.980 That's fucking real.
00:21:08.780 So, and people need to stop clicking, you know, on these people who perpetually victimize
00:21:13.560 themselves over and over and over again, because you feel sorry for them, bro.
00:21:17.800 They're, they're, they're, they're you, this is what's really happening.
00:21:22.060 They're using your good heart to get attention from you.
00:21:27.900 Right.
00:21:28.300 Cause what would that conversation be like if it was an in-person thing?
00:21:30.740 You know what I'm saying?
00:21:31.280 Like, I don't want to hear that shit.
00:21:33.100 You know what I'm saying?
00:21:33.520 Like you might ruin my day.
00:21:34.700 It's easy to just hit the like on the phone though, man.
00:21:36.500 Yeah.
00:21:36.980 Oh man, I'm sorry.
00:21:37.860 You don't fuck.
00:21:38.220 But dude, like the problem is, is that I support you.
00:21:41.760 Yeah.
00:21:41.880 But when you do that shit, you're, you're reinforcing their fucking identity that they
00:21:45.880 can never escape from.
00:21:47.140 So like when you have someone who's created a victim identity and you refuse to give it
00:21:52.360 air, eventually they're going to give you something else.
00:21:55.220 You see what I'm saying?
00:21:56.160 But if you continue to validate, you're actually hurting them because they won't ever be able
00:22:01.320 to escape that reality.
00:22:02.520 They'll always see themselves as a victim.
00:22:04.220 They'll always see that as the way they get attention.
00:22:06.120 And that's, if you really care about someone, that's probably about the worst thing that
00:22:10.540 you could do to someone is to continue to, to, to validate their victim experience, which
00:22:15.400 isn't real.
00:22:16.200 I'm a fucking victim.
00:22:20.420 I got stabbed in the fucking face.
00:22:22.120 How many times you hear me fucking talk about it?
00:22:24.240 How many posts you see me crying about it?
00:22:26.440 In fact, you say it's the best thing that's ever happened to you.
00:22:27.960 It is the fucking best thing that ever happened to me because I overcame it.
00:22:30.600 Yeah.
00:22:31.500 Yeah.
00:22:31.640 You don't think I could fucking milk the shit out of that on social media every fucking
00:22:37.660 day?
00:22:39.960 Oh, bro.
00:22:40.960 I was walking through fucking quick trip and somebody gave me the evil eye and I know they
00:22:44.740 were looking at my scars.
00:22:46.720 I know it's just so hard for me out here in the real world because my scars and everybody
00:22:51.500 just judges me and this and that.
00:22:52.960 Or I could look at it as, Hey, I walked by these people, they stare at me and they probably
00:22:56.840 wonder that they probably think like not to fuck with me.
00:22:59.360 You know what I'm saying?
00:22:59.780 They probably think, yeah, I don't want to fuck with that guy.
00:23:01.120 I could choose to fucking believe whatever I want to believe about it.
00:23:03.820 Yeah.
00:23:04.060 All you're missing is the teardrops, bro.
00:23:05.540 Yeah.
00:23:05.860 That's what I'm saying.
00:23:06.840 Like, I don't look, man, like shit, bad shit happens to every single person listening to
00:23:11.840 this.
00:23:12.140 Yeah.
00:23:12.400 When you build your identity around the bad shit that's happened to you in the past, how can
00:23:15.900 you ever become something else?
00:23:17.140 Right.
00:23:18.740 That's right, man.
00:23:21.340 Guys, Andy, our third and final question.
00:23:22.960 for you, Andy, what are your thoughts on allowing politics or other controversial topics to
00:23:29.280 be discussed at work?
00:23:30.920 Historically, these topics have been known to distract people from the company's missions
00:23:34.340 and caused arguments and divided a team.
00:23:36.820 What are your thoughts on that?
00:23:39.860 You know, Hey man, I think, I think part of the reason that, um, we have such a divisive
00:23:46.960 political environment is because only one side's ever been able to talk about their views.
00:23:51.220 Um, the left has been able to oppress and put their views onto people for a number of years
00:23:58.500 now.
00:23:58.760 And if you don't do it, you're this, you're, you're, you're, you're an ist if you don't
00:24:02.800 go along with their shit.
00:24:04.080 And this is why, this is why people aren't hiring college degrees anymore.
00:24:07.760 Right.
00:24:08.140 You know, people want to say, Oh, why aren't they valuing college degrees?
00:24:10.620 Because big companies are learning that after 10 years of hiring people with college degrees
00:24:16.540 who have been indoctrinated into woke ideology, that it's not a good idea for them to come
00:24:20.160 work here because they fuck up the culture.
00:24:22.020 So it's going to cost them more money than it is going to make.
00:24:24.560 So, you know, when you think about, uh, I think politics should be discussed.
00:24:32.120 Um, and the reason I think politics should be discussed is because they should be discussed
00:24:36.500 with the, with the idea of how are we going to fix the problem?
00:24:40.060 Um, not who's right.
00:24:41.420 You know what I'm saying?
00:24:42.320 Like, I think a lot of people could learn a lot of things by having discussions about
00:24:47.900 what's going on in the world.
00:24:49.520 Instead of just saying, you know, don't talk about politics.
00:24:52.620 Don't, don't talk.
00:24:54.180 Part of the, part of what they want is they want everybody to be on edge.
00:24:57.740 They want everybody to fucking hate each other.
00:24:59.900 And that's why they make this shit so divisive.
00:25:02.220 Right.
00:25:02.460 But at the end of the day, if you're able to teach your team that, Hey, we're all on the
00:25:07.800 same team and we may not see everything exactly the same.
00:25:11.560 However, we're going to work together for a common good, which is a better future for
00:25:15.520 all of us.
00:25:16.100 Isn't that exactly what America is supposed to be like, isn't it?
00:25:20.860 Yeah.
00:25:21.580 I mean, you know, so, so if you're still buying into the left and the right, um, the black
00:25:27.760 and the white, the LGBT, whatever, plus verse everybody, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
00:25:33.120 blah, blah, blah.
00:25:33.740 Yeah.
00:25:34.300 You're buying into their structure of division.
00:25:36.780 They intentionally create so that they can rule over us.
00:25:39.760 And so I think allowing for conversations to happen, um, that might be uncomfortable
00:25:46.520 is important.
00:25:48.880 Yeah.
00:25:49.240 I think it's super important.
00:25:50.500 Um, I think the idea of, you know, let's censor everybody who doesn't agree with bro.
00:25:56.540 That's super dangerous.
00:25:57.900 And, and by the way, you're censoring all the people that are, that are, have guns.
00:26:02.200 Um, so at the end of the day, those people are not going to be censored.
00:26:07.120 Um, I, I just, you know, I, I, I, I guess for me, I don't have a problem discussing any
00:26:15.760 of my positions because I'm educated on them.
00:26:18.700 Um, I also don't expect anyone to automatically agree with me on anything that I say.
00:26:23.000 So I don't have a problem with people discussing whatever.
00:26:25.540 Well, more than that too, Andy, like you understand, like, it's okay.
00:26:28.480 If you do think differently than me, I can still respect you for that.
00:26:31.400 Some of my best friends, I mean, look, dude, some of my best fucking friends, they don't
00:26:36.360 agree with me on every stance I have.
00:26:37.880 Right.
00:26:38.380 Like, that's why we're fucking friends.
00:26:39.840 Right.
00:26:40.580 You know, and that's what we're missing in this country.
00:26:42.260 We're missing the ability to communicate in the way that they, the way that they've taught
00:26:46.400 us how to not communicate is by making things like politics, taboo or divisive or also
00:26:51.700 PC culture.
00:26:52.820 Right.
00:26:53.340 Like we, we can't tell the truth because it's offensive.
00:26:56.100 No, man, we're going to tell the truth.
00:26:58.480 We're going to tell the truth.
00:26:59.400 This is America.
00:27:00.100 We're going to fucking tell the truth.
00:27:01.420 I don't care if you're fucking offended.
00:27:03.180 I don't care.
00:27:04.540 Like you're, you're, you're being offended does not trump the truth.
00:27:07.740 Right.
00:27:08.740 It just doesn't.
00:27:09.380 Right.
00:27:09.500 It's facts over film.
00:27:10.320 Yeah.
00:27:10.820 And, and, you know, you see people, um, I mean, dude, the NRA thing, right?
00:27:18.960 The last, this last week, um, has been a big topic of discussion and the media made
00:27:24.640 it seem like there was a million people out there protesting at fucking, uh, the NRA convention.
00:27:28.740 There was like 20 people there.
00:27:30.240 Right.
00:27:30.720 I know.
00:27:31.100 Cause I know people that were there and they were sending me videos and the media is making
00:27:34.840 it, you know, the media is showing these fucking crazy people screaming and this and
00:27:39.000 that.
00:27:39.340 And it's literally like 20, 30 people behind three barricades.
00:27:43.420 Yeah.
00:27:43.920 And so, you know, what does that tell you?
00:27:46.760 Yeah.
00:27:47.780 What does that tell you?
00:27:48.880 They're trying to stir the pot of division and we aren't divided fundamentally as neighbors.
00:27:54.300 Like when you walk down the street, um, most of your neighbors are going to come out of
00:27:59.260 their house and you're going to talk to them and you're going to think, Hey, that was a
00:28:01.700 pretty nice dude.
00:28:02.660 That's the reality of America.
00:28:04.500 You know, the media is a fucking seditious operation.
00:28:08.040 In my opinion, um, they can treat, continue to cause division.
00:28:11.800 They continue to fucking stir hate.
00:28:13.920 They don't report anything good.
00:28:15.940 None of these people have the interests of Americans in mind and we're, we're at war.
00:28:20.560 We're at a cultural war at this point in time and it could turn into a different kind of
00:28:23.760 war, but, um, I think it's important for people to leave the labels behind and understand
00:28:30.240 that when you buy into a label, you're buying into someone else's ideology.
00:28:33.780 And by buying into that ideology, it allows you to, it creates a scenario where you are,
00:28:39.880 uh, inflexible in your ability to learn.
00:28:44.080 And it creates a scenario where, you know, you can't learn because if you know everything
00:28:49.920 and you buy into this ideology, how are you going to listen to anything else?
00:28:53.200 So the whole idea of us goes both ways.
00:28:56.320 It does a hundred percent.
00:28:57.680 And that's why, you know, I'm very careful to say who I support and who I stand behind.
00:29:02.740 Um, and who I think is, is someone who will go in and do the job because a lot of these
00:29:08.380 people are, are bought into, uh, an ideology that is rigid and that's not what America is
00:29:15.160 supposed to be about.
00:29:16.020 But America also isn't supposed to be about grooming kids that are fucking eight years
00:29:19.560 old into, into adults, broken adults, sexual fucking lives.
00:29:25.640 Right.
00:29:26.140 You know?
00:29:26.520 So there's, there's, there's definitely boundaries that need to not be crossed.
00:29:31.580 And some of these boundaries are being crossed over on the progressive left, uh, to the point
00:29:36.100 where America's responding in a, in a, what could be a hyper aggressive way if they don't
00:29:40.760 start regulating.
00:29:41.500 You know, if I'm in the LGBTQ community right now, I'm fucking understanding like, Hey, these
00:29:46.620 child people, these child predator people have infiltrated our movement and we need to
00:29:51.660 fucking get them out because dude, 99.9% of LGBTQ people are not with that shit.
00:29:58.160 Right.
00:29:58.600 They're just not.
00:29:59.300 No, they're not.
00:29:59.940 Let's make it seem like it's all of them.
00:30:01.520 They do.
00:30:01.920 And that's dangerous for that group.
00:30:03.400 You know what I'm saying?
00:30:04.240 That's not a good thing.
00:30:05.180 And, and, and, um, you know, that that's perpetuated.
00:30:10.220 All of those things are perpetuated by, uh, everybody being afraid to talk about real
00:30:16.060 issues, which is what they do with PC culture, which in my opinion is a weapon.
00:30:20.500 Um, I don't, it's not my opinion.
00:30:22.320 It's a, it's an actual tactic, um, to create a scenario to people silence themselves.
00:30:27.700 And I, I believe that the discussions are important because, um, people have been silencing
00:30:33.520 themselves and it's allowed people with malicious intent to really fuck up our shit.
00:30:37.360 So I, I think it's good to have conversation.
00:30:40.720 I think it, I think if you're the leader of your group and people have political differences,
00:30:45.820 you know, maybe that's, maybe that's an opportunity for you to bring them together on some things.
00:30:51.000 Right.
00:30:51.960 You know?
00:30:52.520 Right.
00:30:52.920 Cause we can all say it's fucked up right now.
00:30:55.300 We can all, you know, about that.
00:30:56.760 Everybody understands this messed up.
00:30:58.500 Yeah.
00:30:58.860 You know what I'm saying?
00:30:59.760 It's listen.
00:31:01.180 Uh, everybody's starting to realize the manipulation that's happened.
00:31:07.360 You know, Elon went on this push for Twitter, you know, it was showed how many bots there
00:31:13.440 were and this and that.
00:31:14.460 And like, dude, what's been happening is they'd be created a false reality that people have
00:31:18.340 been afraid to fucking, to speak the truth.
00:31:21.460 And I think you guys should all look at like, you know, how many of the polls are 80, 20 for
00:31:26.920 common sense type people.
00:31:28.120 Um, how many, you know, how these woker companies are getting fucking destroyed.
00:31:34.160 Like, like understand you're the majority, not the minority of common sense, you know?
00:31:39.460 So, um, and that only comes out through conversation.
00:31:43.060 And I think that if people have more conversations, they'd realize that we're also, uh, we're all
00:31:47.720 way more alike than we are different.
00:31:49.300 And we all want the same things.
00:31:50.860 We just say it different ways.
00:31:52.180 Yeah.
00:31:53.080 Beautifully said, man.
00:31:54.780 Well guys, that was three.
00:31:56.260 Um, but we've got a little caramel sauce, man, if you want it.
00:31:58.740 Oh yeah.
00:31:59.080 All right.
00:31:59.360 I'm cool with that.
00:32:01.080 Andy, uh, caramel sauce question.
00:32:03.200 If there was an action comedy movie of your life, who would you cast to play you?
00:32:09.240 Action comedy.
00:32:10.640 Can we guess on three?
00:32:12.300 Huh?
00:32:12.740 Like, can we say our answers at the same time?
00:32:16.280 You know who I'm going to say?
00:32:17.720 No.
00:32:18.540 Samuel L. Jackson.
00:32:19.620 I don't know.
00:32:20.340 Oh, come on, man.
00:32:21.660 That might be true back in his prime.
00:32:24.080 I could see Samuel L. Jackson playing me.
00:32:26.080 Yeah, you can do it.
00:32:26.900 Yeah.
00:32:27.280 You can do it.
00:32:28.000 Yeah.
00:32:28.720 For sure.
00:32:29.860 That'd be a good one.
00:32:30.820 Um, out of current dudes that like, uh, that I think like that I understand their humor.
00:32:38.680 I think Chris Pratt's pretty funny.
00:32:40.700 Chris Pratt.
00:32:41.100 That's a good choice.
00:32:41.640 Yeah.
00:32:42.160 He's, he's a regular dude.
00:32:43.680 He's, he kind of, in his roles, like that's kind of how I act in real life.
00:32:48.240 Like, you know, so I don't know.
00:32:50.840 I like him.
00:32:51.300 I think he's, I think he's pretty funny.
00:32:52.780 I don't generally like a lot of Hollywood people.
00:32:55.320 Um, he's kind of hot to me too.
00:32:57.340 Oh, is he?
00:32:57.820 I know that's kind of weird, but yeah.
00:32:59.460 Chris Pratt.
00:32:59.880 Well, that makes sense.
00:33:00.480 That's a good looking dude, man.
00:33:01.040 I mean, that's why I picked him because he was so hot.
00:33:04.040 It was the, it's the handful of booty meat for me.
00:33:06.480 Is that what it is?
00:33:06.940 Yeah.
00:33:07.140 I don't know, man.
00:33:10.880 Fuck.
00:33:11.220 Like, like, I don't fucking know.
00:33:13.120 Like I, I, you know, maybe if Samuel L. Jackson and Chris Pratt had a baby, because they can
00:33:18.200 do that these days.
00:33:22.740 Oh, Sam Pratt.
00:33:24.300 I like it.
00:33:24.920 That's right.
00:33:26.100 All right.
00:33:26.460 Is that it?
00:33:27.000 That's it, man.
00:33:27.520 That's all I got, brother.
00:33:28.440 Guys, share the show.
00:33:29.440 I appreciate you.
00:33:30.060 I love you guys.

00:33:31.660 Went from sleeping on the floor.
00:33:33.480 Now my jewelry box froze.
00:33:35.200 Fuck a pole.
00:33:35.980 Fuck a stove.
00:33:36.860 Counted millions in the cold.
00:33:38.520 Bad bitch.

00:33:40.200 Got her on bankroll.
