  Speaker 1: And I'm not trying to beat up man. So but
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: you know five and three is different though, you know,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: you see I learned about you. You're a man, you know,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: you're You're a guy who don't write things down in
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: pencil with the racing. You write stuff out with real quick, right,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: But yep, that's me. I, Like I said, I like
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: to make decisions quick and I'm resolutely when I make them.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: So so the the T shirt. So so why did you?
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Why did you? Why did you change the plan? Though? Well,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: because I am a woman and I see my husband's
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: vision and I know the vision for our company and
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I grow and so when my husband got into the
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: general contract can feel and commercial real, okay, I was like,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: it would be it will go hand in hand for
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: us to do this, you know together. So as I
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: was learning more about commercial development, you know the program
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: that I'm I'm working on my second masters right now,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: and it's an ATMs program. So I'm like, I could
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: go ahead, get into this program, and then by the
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: end of the five year plan, I have my degree
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: and hit the ground running. Well you did hit the
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: ground running now and in the series it kind of
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: caught you off guard, and I'm gonna just tell you
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: this there real, I gotta be real. When when you
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: said that, I think you said something like, uh, just
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: just just you allowing her to do this just to
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: be happy. That didn't come across really good on TV,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: and then it didn't. It made you. It made you
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: look bad though Massault. You know what I'm saying. It
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: made you look like you show this, It made you
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: look souvinistic. And then it really took me back because wow,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: he said that, Because because because because your wife, she's beautiful,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: you know, she's honest, she's loving, and and it looked
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: like her. So that's what I'm saying is that when
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: you do these shows, you know, because you're you're you're
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: you're on this couple, you have an open communication and
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: sometimes you might joke around and make a statement, but
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: then they let's get captured on film that becomes part
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: of the storyline. Did that moment, how did that moment
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: play back to you guys when it aired, and did
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: you have to deal with any issues within the household
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: when it aired? Um, I can't say right now that
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: that was not my best moment one of all the
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: time of things that, uh, you know, I I mean,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: I don't. I don't regret I think that much of
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: my life because it's a great learning experience. But yeah,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: I would, I would, I wouldn't do it again. And
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: I've learned that that mistake, Um. And the truth of
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: the matter is, I mean, I hate to say it,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean, it's it's just it was just
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: a mistake on my part with that, with that, and
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: I apologize to that. And I think that a challenge
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: with us because we're I know, everyone says they're authentic,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: but the challenge with us because we're authentic and you
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: are authentic. Yeah, yeah, and we don't. We didn't what
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: blind signed it us and what blind sided me particularly,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: I don't care about people talking about me, but what
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: blind sided about me is how my jokes made my
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: wife look. Yeah, and that's not something I mean. As
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: as much of a provider as I am, I'm also
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: a protector and I don't want to. Even if I
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: come around as being a jerk, I don't care, but
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I don't want it to make it look like that
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: she's weak because she's not. I wouldn't even I'm not
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: the kind of guy that needs to marry a weak
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: person the same strong the teacher is not weak. Okay,
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: but I knew you were joking. I knew you were joking.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: I know that I do television all my life. You know,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: the last nineteen n nineteen names two, I've been doing
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: television and no, no, no, how you can edit things
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: the teacher. You will respond to that because I know
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: that wasn't the case, and it came across like he
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: was a controlling he didn't care about your future. And
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: then it didn't even introduce your worried about your vision.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: How did that affect you when it aired? Yeah, it
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: was because I know Martha personality. I knew it was joke,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: and I with him, Hey, I know you're joking. Most
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: of some time I'm laughing at all, but people looking
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: on them from the outside looking and I'm like, oh
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: my god, I can't believe you say that. Oh my god.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: So and then like and she's not people gonna say
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: anything that's him. And that's why people love my mom
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: so much because my mom was like, well I handled it,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: but I'm like, I know my husband and I know
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: it was a joke. And also the whole me going
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: back to school to me um getting my real state degree,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: that was something that we discussed part to even feel
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: it before the show came up that together in the
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: part of the plan. So when he said play your
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: role baby, all right, what you know he said, you're
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: doing it for fun, I was like, you know what myself, okay, whatever,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: And I walked away from that because I was like, whatever, dude,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: you show did When you said that, I went, oh, no, no,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: you didn't. This is on film, but you can't. You
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: can't pull this some back. Brother, You can't pull us
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: some back. But but that that's but that's the whole
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: part of this whole process with with we're knowing that
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: that can air like that, and then that later on
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: went uh when I think my tale accused you of
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: having twenty women, which I thought was terrible, which I
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: thought was horrible, just to throw something out there and
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: then then your mother in law bring it back later on,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: That's not why you guys did this show. But what
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: are the what are the benefits of doing this type
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: of show so far? Well, that's not one of them.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: I can I can say that right now. Um, you
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: know I. UM, that's I'm gonna I'm gonna tell you
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: a dealing story. We I'm doing a business deal with
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: a gentleman and and I was doing in the midst
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: of speaking with one of the owners. They uh, I'm
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: sitting there talking. He said, hey, let me tell you something,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: and he pulls out the telephone and he shows where
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: he was inquired about our company. And that person said, well,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: I don't know them, great, but I just did some
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: research and this is what I found. And the person
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: sent that to the person I'm doing business with. And
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: the first thing he said is Marcel's got infidelity. And
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: I can tell you right now, if I'm sitting in
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: his chair and I'm looking to do business with someone,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: I don't want uh, integrity related issues to be the
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: primary focus. That can I trust this guy, you know?
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: And so that right there was definitely unexpected. Now we
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: ended up winning. He said, listen, I'm more concerned with
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: you as a person, not necessarily you as the actor.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: But I want to make sure that when Marcelo's got
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: when the name Marslof Scott is written, you know, and Pen,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: you know, when I'm no longer here, that what I've
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: done and who I am actually get designed through. And
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: so that was definitely a blind side for me and
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: he to be very clear, that was not that. That's
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: not the reason why we got on it and along
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: that same path, that's not something I couldn't. I couldn't
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: continue along that because that's not even reality. That's just
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: mess right now. That's not fair, that's not fair, you know.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: And and then but that's why my opening question was
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: why are you guys doing this show? Because I saw
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: an authentic couple. I saw a loving couple. I saw
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: a strong black woman. I saw a strong black man.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: I remember o Maga Side five Fraternity, So I know
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: you're strong, you get up so with that along, okay,
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: But when you when you get tossed into these storylines
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: and these editors sit in the room, they can shape
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: stories to go not the direction that you wanted to go.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: But the beauty of this series with you two is
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: I love the way I'm seeing you coming out of
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: this cocoon. The teacher and I think that's important because
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: the fastest growing entrepreneurs in America are black females, and
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: so you are playing such a tremendous role and showing
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: that it's possible. Even in the Huntsville, Alabama there are opportunities.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: So do you understand that you You may know this already,
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: I don't understand anything crazy, But do you understand that
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: you are a role mardel, how powerful you are presenting
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: yourself to to to African American women. You know, I
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: didn't look at it that way, and wow, none did
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: you say that there's there's definitely something to consider going forward. Um,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: but it's just I just want to show that yes,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: you can have a power for marriage and also run
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: a successful business while raising amazing kids. That is my
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: overall goal. I don't want to be a successful businesswoman
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: but lose my husband, you know, in the process. So
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: that's example I want to put out there. I know
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: there's so many ladies now they want to be, you know,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: a box on box. I'm seeing I'm running things and
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, it's okay. So let your man really
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: be the lead in the head in your family and
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: you have your role as a wife in his helpmate.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: My visions for all of this was when I pray
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: about you know where I'm going and where I'm heading
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: in life, God is putting on my heart. Then listen,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: your husband, you're gonna help him along the path. You
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: know you're gonna be there to support him and help
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: him along this way. You also, you're gonna have your
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: wrong you're gonn of your thing. But my husband is
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: my leader and I you know, I follow Beha, I
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: follow under him and he has lent me to such
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: a great successful life so far. So as long as
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: you have that leader, the one that you want to leave,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: And he said in the example for your family, why
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: not follow something like that? It's finally here the season
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: of celebration, and no matter how you celebrate with family
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: and friends, whether you're preparing for reys magos or Karamu
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: lighting the manura, are going to midnight mass, Coals has
• 15:31

• 17:18
  Speaker 1: I'm not disagreeing with you. I think that's outstanding. That's
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: why I brought your all on the show because first
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: of my fans, and that's why sometimes you know, I'm
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: successful and I've done a lot of great things in
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: my life and sometimes and I feel deem YouTube is
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: very successful. And I just wanted to make that statement
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: about you because so many moms are trapped at home
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: or don't know how to follow their dreams. I don't
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: know other options. And to watch you do it on
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: national TV and allow it to be outlined in this story,
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: I think it's really incredible. And I wanted to make
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: sure if you did know, now you know, okay, and
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: and that's that's a blessing you. You know what. I
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: want to say something on that real quick. When Pisa
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: first got accepted into the em read or the Master
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: the real estate development program, we had a conversation and
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: I said almost the same extent that what you're saying
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: right now said when the kitchen said, baby, you know
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: what this means, and they're like, yeah, you know. Now
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna be there, We're gonna be working together. I
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: was like teaking for you. I want you to understand
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: that no matter how big my personality is and where
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: I am at right now, your your star is brighter
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: than mine when it comes to this. Because as even
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: right now we have a strip mall um in North Flintsville,
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: I'm a commercial developer. He owns the strip mall. Even
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: as she was a stay at home mom, she was
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: the owner of our apartment complex. So the sole owner
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: is there any property sole owner? So the thing about
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: it is I hateful. Even with the choponism, this is
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: a lot we can laugh in the background. Right, chopping
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: is the main control is because even as people say, hey,
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: he stay at home mom, I don't want them to
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: think that the check them downs are not there. In
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: terms of ownership. She owns eight of scope. He owns
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: of the real state endeavors. She owns fifty one for
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: some of the Black de Girl lines. And so this
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: this my Storson lost his mind in terms of oh
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: he controlled and I walked away right now, I'd walking
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: with with less than fifteent of our wealth. So, uh,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: you know, her start is bright, she had a bright stop. Now, Marcel,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't I wouldn't dimnitioning her store. I was shining there,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: I was shining. No, no, no, no no, I was
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: in agreement with you that you know it is the
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: beauty of it. Now. The moment for me, Marso, which
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: I thought really because I'm talking about the show too,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: was was this was the storyline moment that really I
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: thought brought your character back was when in the restaurant,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: you know, when you saw her. They allowed us to
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: see that you saw her potential. You know that was
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: important for your character. I thought for this for the
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: first season. Did you do you agree? Yeah? I think so,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: I think so. I think that, Um, I don't know
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: how this works. Growing up, I wanted to be a projector,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: I want to be provided heard. We we we were
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: we you know, we we saw it was holding it down.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: That that's how we value the measure, and so yes,
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: I thought that, you know, I was doing right, you know,
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: and I didn't realize that. I mean, honestly, I just
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: didn't didn't even give the second thought that, you know,
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: my wife wanted to do this stuff too. I thought
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: he just wanted to be to sit back and kill
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: and we just kind of I didn't know how to
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: deal with it. I didn't know what it meant for us.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: And so just as long as I'm listening and see
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: that he can contribute, and more so, enough thought, so yeah,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: take him back a little bit on that one. But
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: you see how hard it say he was. He was like, okay, baby.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: But then the authentic part of it, See, see I
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: got an eye for talent, and I see things play out,
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: and I see what they could do in the end
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: in the room. And I thought that was important that
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: that episode came up because I knew you kind of
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: like you joke a lot. You want the jokesters. You
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: know that your wife, And and like I said, people
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: can read jokes differently if they don't see the whole joke,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: they just see the punch line. And so they caught
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: you a lot of punchlines. Okay, And then it built
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: you to be like a controlling guy. But that moment
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: in that restaurant, man, they shot it beautifully. Man, when
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: you looked over and go, Babe, I love you, I
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: got you, I got your back to me. I would
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: my boy back into the series. This is now. We
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: can move ahead and do everything now. I know you
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: want to do another podcast with him, but you know
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: everything else is beautiful. Let you know what I'm saying,
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Teachers're gonna do no more podcast. When he said that loud,
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: let's get the script. He gotta get his script. See,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: you're not gonna You're not gonna really more slow and
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: that and live with him no more, no, no, no, no,
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: no no no. Now. Mom. So let's talk about the
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: mother in law now. But what's real and what's fat
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: in your relationship with your mother in law? Teacher's mother, Man,
• 21:58

• 22:44
  Speaker 1: her heart. She's a sweet woman and she's gets a
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: lot of love and she's a little bit you know,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: it's a little different than than you know, for all
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: was from. But she had a different little plaint with absolutely,
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: I'll say that. So, teacher, what's the goals? Now? What's
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: the goals? Now? You know, we talked a little about
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: the second season. We're about to roll into the first season.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: We're about to roll in the second season because I
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: want to talk about the car line. But where are
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: you at with your career that they're showcasing in the
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: second season. Yeah, So, um, I am still in school
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: from still in school right now. Like I said, I'm
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: on an a T my program. So that is it
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: just it tough trying to back the school, the kids
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: and also um the plaza. So we're developing this retap plaza.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: I've also done with two to commercial deals so far
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: with different small business owners. So I'm not like jumping
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: into the commercial world like fool of force. I'm taking
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: babies up to the fool. But I'm still making some
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm bringing some food to the table. A
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: little bit, just a little bit, a little a little
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: bit there, come on, so come on, Oh yeah, man,
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: he's making it happen. I mean, I think sometimes Peter
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: doesn't actually recognize here. He hasn't put on paper and
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: get a chance to see what he's actually doing. He
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: owns a strip mall here in towns. He's owned us.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: He's building two restaurants or company is um you know,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: building an apartment complex. We bout in the hotel, building
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: two restaurants, the strip mall. We're looking forward to building
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: other apartment complexes and things like that. So yeah, I
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: mean so so we've got a lot going on right now. Wow,
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: that's all that going on. So how did you cigar
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: lounge come up with? What I did? What gave that vision?
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: Because we're talking about Huntsfeld, Okay, we're not talking about
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: it Land in New York or Chicago. I'm gonna do
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: a cigar lounge in huts first before you answer to
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: the course, to tell everybody about Huntsville the environment, because
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: I've been there several times, because I should do stand
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: up comedy, and how's you coming to town and do?
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: And that's the headquarters of NASA. There's a lot of
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: a lot of educated people, a lot of educated dollars
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: in hunts Field. A lot of people know about it.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: Tell us about Huntsville, right quick, Marcel Well hunt hunt
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: is a you know, it is a fast growing city. Uh,
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: it's it's one of the most north it's the northernmost uh,
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: you know, major cities in Alabama. And honestly it's it's uh,
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: it's a melting pot in terms of diversity of thought,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: it is uh, you know, diversity of income. Most people
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: in that are living in Huntville now because of NASA, FBI, Facebook,
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: Hilaris and a lot of people that have come in
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: front of boom. A lot of people are not from Huntsville.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: And so you get that, you get that ability to think,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, as the most engineers for Cathol, I believe
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: in the the United States, definitely the most rocket scientists. So
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's not crazy to have a conversation at
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: the bar and say, what are you some kind of
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: rocket scientists and they say, exactly right, And it's and
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: and it's really funny because it's not just it's it's uh,
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: it's a higher income, but it's not it's engineer money,
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: and engineer money spends a lot different than entertainment money
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: or um things like that. So when when people look
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: at what people look for and hunt to Ville, they
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: look for value. And you know, when we're kind of
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: assessing the area and kind of doing our demographic study
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: and saying what are we want to put over in
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: this area, that's kind of how Cigar Lounge came about.
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: When we're talking about when we started examining the area
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: and saying, you know what, what would be a good
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: fit here? Now, Okay, I was just gonna just add
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: a little bit to what Marco just said. The area
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: that we're developing the Cigar Lounge at the medium income
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: in that particular areas right around A hundred and fifty
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: one thousand. It's like, yeah, and it's a great area
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: for redevelopment and also small business grow um in North Huntsville,
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: which is where our that's our target market right now.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: And it's like the economy there is the market prostrest
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: is like, um, it has increased by more than justice
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: like two thousand and eight. And then when you're you're
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: thinking about small business grow and around Seving Pit Range,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: it's a great area to coming to to develop and
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: we're linking for more small businesses and restaurants to come
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: into the area. Well, wow, it sounds like a lot
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: of research has been put into this whole process. Is
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: food going to be served at the cigar lounge? Yes, sir,
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: it's by definition, but based on zoning, it's a restaurant,
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: right and in that so so we can't have an
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: actual class to lounge like a license. We're gonna definitely
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: have alcohol. Um. So it is actually a restaurant there, right, Um,
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: But but it features more topics, so you know it
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: features more topics. Is really upscale? Um? You know, exclusively,
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: I guess. I guess our tacklines is exclusively for everyone,
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: you know, to make sure that we're exclusive without excluding.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: You know. The interesting thing about one of the reasons,
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: one of the one of the topics I bring up,
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: I always talk about a balanced life, living a balanced life,
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: and you know, this is really something that rings out
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: and when I communicate even when you were saying okay,
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: you know when we jokingly talked about the five year rule,
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: because that was that was your version of balanced life.
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: And then teachers say, hey, I want to get back
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: out there early. Then the balanced life, the whole issue
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: comes into the plane and all that stuff. Talk about
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: that whole how how is the balanced life working? Because
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: your kids? I always tell people children didn't ask to
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: come in this world. We brought them in, you know,
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: and then when they come here, we gotta be responsible
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: to raising them right and showing getting them time and
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: pointing them in the right direction. How is the balanced
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: life working now for you too? M hm? You know
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: what the road? You know, I always gonna say that,
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: um balance, you know, I understand where you talk about
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: like you know, the time, your words, food, you're you know,
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: and and and your money. Those are things. These are
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: daily battles. You're not gonna win it today and then
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: say oh it's good. You don't get to go to
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: the gym and say oh now I can eat what
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: I want because I worked out earlier, I made all
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: this and so now I get to spend it. You know,
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: this is these are daily balances. I mean did daily challenges.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: And so that is the same with balants in your life.
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: Is that you know, I'll find sometimes and you said, man,
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: I'm doing really well. I'm you know, me and me
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: and my son m J. Where out golfing, me and
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: my daughter's head night and about flowers, you know, and
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: you know, there's all these things happen, and then the
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: next week you get a project and you get rain,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: and you got kids right here, and I mean you're
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: working all day and all all night and stuff like that.
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: So balance is something that you have to That's why
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: we lean on each other. Sometimes you look at each
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: other and say, hey, baby, out of balance. And sometimes
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: they they miss you, the kids miss you. I miss you.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: What are we doing? Are we getting too focused? I'll
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: be looking too far down the roll with it readily
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: to really see what's in the car, you know. So
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: we need those checks from each other and and and
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: so yes, we try to work on balancing down to
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: get out of balance. I appreciate both of you guys
