  Speaker 1: who are making a difference in the community when I
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: demand when you when you're successful. We're going to talk
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: about that in a minute. But when you say underserved communities,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: what do you what?
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: What?
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: What's that? What's that area? What? What? What are you
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: talking about?
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: Man? I'm I'm talking about the Third War, like you
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: know where where you grew up, where I grew up
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: in Englewood, California. I'm talking about all these places that
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: they don't have the resources and the just pure human
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: dignity that should be given to them and it's desperately needed.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Now that's always you know, because like I said, you know,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: he's referencing Houston, Texas area, third Ward Texas. You know,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: I've lived in LA for fifteen years, so I'm very
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: familiar with Inglewood and you know, we always read about
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: the wealth gap, the racial wealth gap, Well we kind
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: of miss a lot is the racial health gap. And
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: that's where you're diving in deep here, aren't you, oh
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: two thousand percent?
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: I mean you use Boston as an example, you know,
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: back Bay, which is pronominally white versus Roxbury, which is
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: which is black and brown. There's three miles apart from
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: each other, and there's a twenty three year life expectancy
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: gap between those two places. So I mean just just imagine, Wow,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: you know, three miles away from each other and twenty
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: three years different in terms of you know, your your lifespan.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: And but the reality is that exists in every major
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: city in the country, right, And so those are the
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: things that we're attacking now.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: The origin story, what spark they drove you and your
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: co founder? And who is your co founder by the way,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: to start well Withal.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Carmichael Roberts, who is a is a dear friend and
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: brilliant investor, venture capitalist, serial entrepreneur, just an incredible human being.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: You know my origin story. I'll go back just a
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: little bit.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: You take your time too, because DeMar and I've heard
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: we talked offline, and I think this is important that
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: this is now You're not a doctor, but you are
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: an expert in changing lives financially, and now you're about
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: to start changing lives in the health community.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: I definitely am not a doctor, but but I have
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: incredible folks that are that are working with us with
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: great excellence and ensuring that we get all the things
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: that we need, from the products that we developed to
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: to the health information that we put out. But just
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: in terms of you know, my story, you know, I've
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: lived this improbable life where I grew up in poverty,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: first in Columbus, Ohio, then Inglewood, California. Uh then lived
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: in a trailer in rural North Carolina, and you know,
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: I had these extraordinary opportunities to progress. My first job
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: out of college after going to UNC Charlotte was being
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: the assistant to the White House Chief of Staff and
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: the Clinton administration, you know, been consulting for just a
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: little bit, and then ended up at Harvard Business School,
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: and then after that I joined what has become one
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: of the largest hedge funds in the world, and I
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: was there for twenty one years as one of the
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: managing partners. And you know that that allowed me to
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: become you know, a philanthropists, and.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Let's load down. Let's load down to them on because
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: I love people who were successful. They just go through
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: all these damps and those little magical moments that make
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: a difference. And that's why this show is in because
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: those moments. You know, like like you said, you said
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: trailer and then you jumped from trailer, which is to
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Hedge Fund. Now you jump from a trailer to the
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Clinton administration. You know, you jump from a trailer to
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Harvard Business School. See that opportunity to slow us down
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: on those steps because you know, wellwithal is based on
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: the fact that relationships but also a drive that was
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: built into you, what caused you to be you. And
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: then just getting into the story from the trailer park
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: to the to the to the big house.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: I love you know. I never want to bore your
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: your audience, you know, with more detail, but I'll flow
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: it down a little bit. I mean, you know, I've
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: had extraordinary mentors in my life, Yes, sir, people that
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: that that poured into me. You know, from my fifth
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: grade teacher that you know, I didn't understand I was
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: dyslexic at the time at Englewood Create in school. But
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: she allowed me to realize that, you know, I had
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: an extraordinary ability, uh when it came to math, and
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: that that you know, gave my wealth in terms of
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: an understanding of my intelligence. That that was allowed to progress.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: And then you know, I've just had all of these
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: amazing folks who have given me shots and poured into
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: my life and invested in me and given me an
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: opportunity to thrive. You know, Charlotte, I became student body
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: president as a sophomore and and just had these leadership
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: opportunities that allowed me to give speeches and and interact
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: with folks. And you know, I'm I'm sitting at dinner
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: tables not knowing exactly you know, whish fork to use,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: and eating the wrong bread at times. But but was
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: allowed to progress and grow and get that exposure. And
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: the exposure at each one of those levels, you know,
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: allowed me to to see myself in a different light
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: and and imagine what could be possible. And when I
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: met my wife in college, you know, she believed in
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: me and rolled with me and stood right beside me
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: and oftentimes in front of me. H and allowed me
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: to continue to grow. When I was at the White house.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: You know, six months into my job, I was living
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: on my fraternity brother's couch in Alexandria, Virginia, and my
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: car broke down. I had to be the first person
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: into the West wing every morning. And my boss at
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: the time, Erskine Bowles, you know, heard about it, and
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: he said, look, you know, I'm living in this big
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: house in Georgetown. Once you come live with.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Me, please don't go anywhere. We'll be right back with
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: more money Making Conversations master Class. Welcome back to the
• 8:51

• 9:00
  Speaker 3: dot com and follow money Making Conversations Masterclass on Facebook, Twitter,
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: and Instagram.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: And and and that, you know, was this magical changing
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: moment because I said yes, because I had nowhere else
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: to live. But the time that we spent together allowed
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: him to become a mentor to me and give me
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: exposure to to what another world, you know, could could
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: look like. And and and that was a really impactful moment.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: And he's he's like my second father, you know, just
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: invested in me in in such an extraordinary way, and
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: in each one of those points, you know, whether it
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: be at Harvard Business School with Jim Cash, you know,
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: who was one of my greatest mentors, and David Thomas,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: who's currently the president of Morehouse College. You know, those folks,
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: you know, gave me wisdom in those moments where I
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: needed it. You know, where I hadn't seen you know
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: what those other rooms look like. Uh, but they gave
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: me guidance. So when I walked into them, I was prepared.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: You know, it's really amazing because, uh, you know, because
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: I remember I grew up in the hood, the neighborhood,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: and I didn't know I because I grew up with
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: six sisters and two brothers them on and so I
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: used to spoon. I mean, my wife will tell you
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: she was always saying, why you always use a spoon?
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: You know, I would either steak with aol, I would
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: eat the spoon was my thing. I didn't know what
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: a knife was, you know, I was everything was a
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: spoon because we didn't have everything, you know, we you know,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: that was that was my That was my number one thing,
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: a spoon. And my friends in college would look at me, go,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: we's shy and you would eat everything with a spoon.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: So yeah, well it did not have dawned on me
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: about a knife in a fark, especially a knife.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: When you when you have, you know, lived experiences like
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: we've had, it gives you a level of empathy and
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: and understanding that that most people don't. Right, And in
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: my heart as soon as I had two nickels to
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: rub together. You know, my wife and I have poured
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: in the black, brown and underserved communities because we've lived
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: in those places. And you know, you asked me, like,
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: what made me me? It's been those experiences, surviving them,
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: seeing what the reality of them are, and living on
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: the other side and knowing that I have to look
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: back and do more because I easily could be me
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: right there in that same place.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: You know, something on According to Deffiser, black people are at
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: a higher risk for heart disease, stroke, cancer, asthma, and
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: diabetes compared to their white components. Counterponents counterpart excuse me,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: and like you just said, in the Boston area, three
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: miles apart, twenty three years in life's expectancy. But that's
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: not all based on research. The mental health side of
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: us is failing as well. And so what time in
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: your life because you mentioned a hedge fund success, you
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: mentioned a venture capitalist coming into your life. Best in it?
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: What timeline did you say? I'm successful here, but I
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: got to give back in a way that impacts me personally,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: but also more impacts the community that I feel needs it.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: Now. You know, four years ago, I was standing in
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: the middle of an emergency room with my oldest child
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: dealing with depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. And that changed
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: my family's world. That changed my world, That changed my
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: whole perspective on everything. And you know, as we were
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: going through literally the toughest moments of our life, you know,
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: I had this great clarity because when I walk into
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: an emergency room, because I've been in a philanthropist for
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: the last twenty years, before I sit down, somebody says,
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: mister Martin, you know, we have a room for your family.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: The fourteen year old version of myself in the exact
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: same scenario would be likely either either dead or in
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: given the lack of resources, living in the trailer in
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: rural North Carolina. And that just stuck with me. And
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: I was having all these sleepless nights, you know, worrying
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: about my child. The thing that just kept sticking with
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: me is like I got to do something to impact black,
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: brown underserved communities and and and that's been the birth
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: of Well with All. You know, how do you use
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: the skills that you have, which you know, my business partner,
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: a co founder, and I you know, have been capitalists
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: for you know, a long time, and we've built extraordinary relationships.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: How do we use those skills to actually benefit black,
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: brown underserved communities, you know in this context. And that's
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: what Well Withal is. We take twenty percent of the
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: profits of everything that we sell and we pour it
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: into health equity, you know, for for the folks who
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: truly need it.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Now, before we go to break, Well with All, what
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: did the name come from?
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: You know, we we thought a lot about a lot
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: of different names, uh huh. And the thing that was
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: very clear is we wanted it to be Well with All.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: We're not going to stop until we do it.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Wow. And that because because when you're saying you're investing
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: in the community, you really are with twenty percent of
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: your profits. And after the break, we're going to talk
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: about those products that you are using to physically and
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: emotionally and mentally inspire people they have better lives. But
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: when you say, well with all the spark, the drive,
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: and you talk about the personal story of your of
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: your daughter, and then I can remember before we go
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: to record, share this quick story. I remember when my
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: lung collapsed in California and I was just you know,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: I was kind of doing stand up and I've been
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: on a lot of TV shows demand, and I remember
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: when I went in the hospital SESUS side and I
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: has a regular hospital wing and then they have a
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: celebrity hospital wing, and then they put me on the
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: celebrity floor, which means everybody couldn't come see you and
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: all that stuff. So I truly understand what you're saying
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: that halves get it. They get it when they don't
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: want to ask for they are going to get it
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: either through financial through celebrities, through who you know and
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: who know you. And now you're trying to give that
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: have to a community that is underserved and don't know
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: how to get it. Correct.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: That's right. It does not have to be that way.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: We we have to know how and the resources to
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: treat people with dignity and respects. And you know, again
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: we're using the lens of how do we create incredible products?
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Take you know, the profits of things that we were
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: already gonna buy anyway and do good.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: I'm interviewing Demand Martin. He is the founder or co
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: founder of Well Withal. It's an organization that is changing
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: their lives and it's a it was a line in
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: these and there. When I went to WOOFO, we we
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: fill out information, they said, what does generation of wealth wellness? See?
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: I always say wealth all the time. This first time
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: I've heard word generational wellness? And I said, I went
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: back to my old hat because when I hear generational,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: I always hear wealth. So what does generational wealness mean
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: to you? Sir?
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: Hey? See like you you're you're right on point, because
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: generational wellness actually is generational wealth. Right there, single greatest
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: asset that you can have is your health. Yes, right,
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: I mean there there are a ton of rich people
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: that have zero days left. And what good is that?
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: We know?
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: You know, I I you know it's really interesting is
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: that you know when we young were just young, you know,
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: we get a cold. I know why I play I
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: get basket When I was young and my twenties, I
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: get a back, I get a cold. I just go
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: play the cold off. You know, I just go out
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: there just hoop. You know, I get a cold, I
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: get a cold night brother, I look like I'm in
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: I got a meliciny chest in my truck as I
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: drive home, wrapped up.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: My knees.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: Kn't hamdler going out there in the court. And so
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: so when I when I think of about that, the
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: whole weldness process, and and and I love getting compliments
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: from people at my age, you know, all those things
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: that have value to us. Now you have products that
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: you are that you went and sat down. Let's talk
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: about that part of the business model, because this is
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: money making conversation master class. You are an entrepreneur, you
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: develop a hedge fund, then you say, there's another model
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: out there that can generate revenue but also can improve
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: the lives of individuals from a wellness perspective. Let's talk
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: about that model.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and just you know, we have been
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: underserved even as even consumers right where, you know, I thought,
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: what if we actually looked at our consumer base and
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: design product with us in mind and made them premium
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: quality and and just really extraordinary products. And and by
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: the way, the response that we've gotten about our products
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: have been really amazing, overwhelmingly because we we've had some
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: of the best people in the world designed them. But
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: the reality is is that, you know, the nutritional composition
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: of the American diet is incomplete for almost everybody, and
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: and so by having supplements to that, whether it be
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: our multi vitamins, which which are extraordinary, or even thinking
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: about you know, how we're living our lives and not
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: getting enough sleep. Our speech support product is extraordinary. These
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: are all things that I use and my family uses,
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: and that you know, are enhancing the way we're living
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: our life. And again we're just getting really extraordinary response
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: from them. Let me ask you, by the way you
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: can go. You can go to Wellwithall dot com and
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: pick those up.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: Okay, let me ask you this. It's about trust now,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: because you know, you know, I get up in the morning,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: I kid you not. I got I got my high
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: bless your prey peel. I got my high blessed blood

• 18:59
  Speaker 1: you know, because of by multi vitem appeal. Now, now,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: how do I trust you, you know, and I'm not
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: saying in the negative man, And that's what we're doing now.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: We're taking people who are tied to going into a
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: drug store seeing all these brands that have told us
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: you should be using us. And so when you have
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: a new product like yours, how do we how do
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: you convince me that I can trust you it really
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: is going to work?
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: You know. The thing that I'm really proud of is
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: the team that we've been able to attract. And again,
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: you know, I invested in the consumer world for over
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: twenty years and with an extraordinary fashion, and we've been
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: able to bring some of the best in the world.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: We've got a unicorn and our chief merchant who has
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: been in this industry for twenty years and doing so
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: in a really extraordinary way. The former CEO at G
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: and C is one of our business partners. We brought
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: together the best people in the world to develop these products.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: And also you'll you'll see some some significant announcements. We've
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: partnered with some of the biggest institutions UH in the
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: world as well. We're making these products with with excellence
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: because that is what we deserve. And and and by
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: the way, Everything is premium quality right right. Everything is
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: clinically studied dosages with clinically studied ingredients every day, all day,
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: you know, because we we we we wanted to take
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: zero risks with that factor.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Because no one's question that, you know, like I said,
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: and that's that's why I brought you on the show,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: because of the fact that I've done my research and
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: this is this is people. I hope I've developed a
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: reputation out there in this industry where people who listen
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: to my show, they trust that Shan has done his research.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: He's talking to a credible source. But it is competition,
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: it is marketing. It is being able to have your
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: products stand out on the shelf of people clicking your
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: online how do you market your product and it's new, so.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: You know, one of the things that we're doing, we're
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: actually out with our consumers. We were Essence Stuffs and
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: the response that we got there both with a new
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: drink that will be launching next year as well as
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: our existing products, and just to see the response over
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: and over and over again, to have people there was
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: a moment where my wife was just in tears because
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: it's one thing to come home and say baby, Look, look, loter,
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: what we're about to do to see you know, hundreds
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: and hundreds and hundreds of people over and over again
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: say this is really good. This is really good, this
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: is really good. And we got the exact same response
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: that the HBCU Classic in New York that we were
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: just at this this past Saturday. And the consumer is
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: telling us over and over again that they love what
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: we're what we're building and developing, and there's going to
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: be more and more that that continues to come.
• 21:58

• 22:02
  Speaker 1: I love us, man, I'm telling you. And that's all
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: about to go with the ball. They they they they
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: are like the truth sayers. You know what I'm saying.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: When they say this is good, that meant that they
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: really didn't believe. They didn't believe, and then you you
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: sold them out right there they turned there go this
• 22:19
