So now we see this damn stock market to get going and we'll get rolling. Those are some of the headlines we talked about today. How says you, Christopher? Hey, I'm just kind of a little laugh about your new intro. I didn't think about it. But you're right. I'm like every time we post one of those reels, I'm like every week, Friday morning. There's not. There's not. There's not. Ryan has tagged you in a real, you know, first thing I wake up, open it. Yeah. Happy Friday. Good morning. No, everything's good, man. I can't believe we're halfway through March. I already, but I'll tell you what, I'm grateful daylight savings is over. Yes. Oh, me too. It's just just kind of depressing when it's dark at five o'clock. So hopefully everyone like is caught up with that. I don't really have a hard problem with that one hour difference per say. I do feel like the Sunday feels a little shorter. Yeah. But it's worth the hour change. And hey, it's just funny to me. And I think people I can relate. I know that it's for business and things. But your mindset changes on almost like my productivity. Yeah. Because I'll say this. And look, I don't. I control most of my time. I'm an entrepreneur and I can come and go. Is that please? But like, I feel the pressure sometimes. I feel like, okay, I know the wife and the kids are home. It's getting dark outside. It's time to go. Even if it's not necessarily I'm missing anything yet. Versus when it's still bright and sunny, you know, 536 o'clock, I'm not stressing it. I'm getting more shit done. I know I can go home and get a couple things done around the house. You know, and so it's just funny how, and I even noticed it in Greenville where we are, Greenville, South Carolina. People out more in around the office around that time. I'm like, the, the daylight just keeps people in a different action. Yeah, it does. You could see it. You could feel it. Yeah. There was a lot more active yesterday in the evening. Yeah. You know, that it typically was. I feel more productive myself too. When it's dark at five, you just want to stay home. You don't want to get up and go to the gym and do anything else. Yeah. So we appreciate everyone for listening. You need to watch it on YouTube. You can see my Christian hour debating pre-show. My pinkish purplish. I'm getting ready for Easter trying to add more color here. I'm usually white, black in a standard. But I've got my, what do you call it? Malt or lavender. Lavender. Lavender. My lavender shirt. You can only see this lavender if you're watching us on YouTube or on Spotify. So we do have the video. Joel, our producer, has set up the camera nice. I've got a new contraption here for the belt. It's shiny and glowing. You know, we got a new lens a little bit here, Chris. I got the camera closer to me. So. Yeah. Good for the. Hey. That belt is looking big. Hey. Hey. Look. Number one in marketing. Number four in all of business today. And number 48 in all podcasts in the US. There's over a two million podcast in the US. And we're number 48.

Cookie dough. You kidding me? I was like, I get to talk about cookie dough and business and all this stuff. I got sent some cookie dough, Chris. That stuff's tasty. So we appreciate Jimmy from no bake. He broke it down literally talked about living in a van down by the river. Essentially, to make it through, to get to the other side, him and his wife run the company. So if you want to know what it takes to run business today and taking your own, you know, control your own life, making your own bets and all that, Jimmy sexton, great episode this week launched on Tuesday. But we've got the business news of this week. And it's hard to like, Chris, these numbers are so staggering. We talked millions of billions all the time. It's a lot of damn money. But TikTok ad revenue could top 32, but, but, but, but, billion. If it doesn't lose its biggest market. It's a big. It's a big yes. Right. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. It could top 32. You say it. There's a chance. This is like dumb and dumber. Exactly. One of the chances of a guy like you and a girl like me getting together. I thought one of them. Yeah. Yeah. There's a chance. Optimistic would be the title of this article. They say, what do they say? Hope's not a strategy. So I hope they can get it figured out. I don't think Trump's going to mess around. I think he's going to tell them, you know, sell or make a deal with somebody that I think it's going to be some fireworks. This just comes down to the to the deadline. That or we're going to have a lot of teeny-boppers patrolling Washington with signs and petitioning the government. Trying on the internet. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's interesting because like it's saying here, obviously, Meta stands to benefit the most if they're banned. And I'm interested to see because I mean, Meta's got a lot of power, right? They have a lot of political power. So I'm interested to see. I don't know why they wouldn't just maybe, you know, acquire to talk. Yeah. Like it's an Instagram, you know? You would think that Mark has floated that out there. Yeah. Yeah. And he's got the capital probably to one of the few people or for your companies on the planet. I mean, what about Apple, man? Yeah. I mean, Apple, you know, floundered with the iPhone. Apple buying TikTok. I mean, you talk about like they're always, they're Googles their biggest competition. Like in a lot of ways, talk about being able to jump right to the head of the, I mean, I don't know why you wouldn't. Because then that puts them into competition with prime, right? Now you've got Apple TV. Yeah. They've got the media side already, but they don't have the streaming like user generated content funnel. Right. Right. They don't have that. You know, Apple TV's great. The content's great. Play billions of dollars. Really good actors to make really good content. It's sick. Yeah. You know, it would be the craziest thing. No. So I don't miss it. It doesn't seem very Tim cook like. But not at all. Everything seems safe with him, including his outfits. It's, I don't know. There's little innovation. Apple in the 90s when they're really cool, like, Mac colored computers. You remember that? Yeah. That stops. Yeah. Jobs is creative with it. Let's make Apple great again. I mean, you know, look, I love their products. I have their phone and they're, it's steady. And they're definitely in a mature phase of the brand. But man, I just surprised and delight me a little bit, you know? Like, I need surprise in the light, Chris. Like, I'm, I'm, I'm with my electronics and the few things that I take joy in. Like, I need surprise and delight. It's been a long time since Apple's boot. You with the new phone. No. You got the debacle that was the headgear that was the, the, the metaverse. You know, the old days, man. When you went from flip to color to camera, it was like every time you're like, innovation. Yeah. Straight up. Like, now you could have music on it and take pictures. It was real. Every year till you were actually getting a new tool. It's so bad now that the innovation is turning it off. But people go, people detoxing. Yeah, we're literally like, yeah, like, get me away from this thing. Give me away from my phone for, for five hours. People dain't 10 grand to go to Costa Rica for a week to not use their cell phone. Yeah, exactly. So anyway, keep your eyes out. We're going to, this TikTok thing is going to be interesting the next six days. I think fireworks are coming because it's funny. It's how the work, the news works because you were, they bought, they bought like 60, 90 days, something like that. And it goes immediately to the back burner of the news, right? Because that's us. We'll bring that up. That clock's counting though. Right. This is from our good friends at marketing dive. Chris found this one. I mean, how cool brands like Crocs, Southwest, the influencer marketing evolving. It's so funny and interesting on some levels to me, Chris. From the one we know media is changing, we know how reaching people and having influence, you know, TV, just running a TV ad, you know, to audiences that aren't watching it, that are either fast forwarding and just not watching it altogether. Doesn't work. But it's also interesting that, you know, like D to C brands have been crushing influence from marketing for like five, six, seven years. Right. Now the big brands are like, oh yeah, we got to reach people with this influencer game. Like, eh, no shit. Like, this is how you have influence. This is how you get scale. You got to activate like real people doing user generated content. Or, hey, go figure. It's shameless plug. Get on podcasts. That's another form of user generated content by non celebrities. I mean, Chris and I are celebrities now in our minds. But, but we weren't. And you that, but in all seriousness, this is new media. It's not. I mean, you call it influencer marketing fine, but I just, it's just new media. It's just like new media. Exactly. Yeah. And this is how this is the content that people consume. This is what influences them. And there's that there's a level of authenticity that comes with influencers, the right ones. And this is how you reach people. Yeah. We got a bunch of new names for the same chick, right? Yeah. It's still media. It's still content. Right. It was content. 30 years ago, when we were watching Leave It To Beaver or whatever that was, the Indie Griffith show you had ads running on the TV. Or you had radio spots. Yeah. And some of this media is not gone forever. But I didn't even argue radio is being replaced in a lot of ways by streaming and podcasting because people are listening to podcasts in the car. Then they're watching it on their TV that they've put up on the screen from casting from YouTube or whatever. This is just how media is evolving. And this is how you got to reach the audience. And these are like individual influencers who have different TV stations. Yeah. Yeah. Right. You got a bunch of different actors. You don't have to pay, you know? Yeah. You do. Some of those things are pretty high. But it's not as high as Tom Cruise or, you know, Rosie O'Donnell. No. She might be affordable now. But he's doing music videos. Do you see that Tom McDonnell music video that Rosie O'Donnell did? Yeah. She's wild. I don't know. I don't know. She had dreads. Oh, that guy has a master marker himself. Yeah, he is. No matter what his message is on her. Which some of them I probably agree with. And then some of them like, all right. We're a little far out there, buddy. But anyway, executive itself by Southwest. Southwest Southwest is going on today. Another conference that I haven't attended in 10 years. And I feel like, you know, some part of me like wants to be there. And then part of me is like, I don't know. Like out. There's a lot of influential people there that I like rubbing shoulders with. And having dinner with and having that personal connection. So that I appreciate. But in the list of things to do, Chris, and the businesses to run, it's like, it's hard to find time for that, you know? Yeah, you've got to prioritize. So hope everyone's having fun in Austin getting drunk. You know, what time is it? Yeah, it's like, we're recording this move the day. You're a little hungover at your next. It's your third session right now. You're warning an afternoon beer. It's too early. But you might get one at lunch cocktail at lunch at the, uh, I heart radio. Ten. Oh, those are the days. Those are the days. Um, so hey, you need to get into new media. Influencers, people in podcasting. If you, hey, you want to learn more about podcast and go to the radcastnetwork.com. Chris, we're up to 30 shows, dude. 30 shows and counting. We've added 22 shows this year. And it's in March. So if you want to learn more about joining the radcast network, we're growing your show. Go to the radcastnetwork.com. Help people do what you should do. Generate great content. Make money doing it and grow. Elon Musk believes Doge will reach the goal of a trillion dollars in savings. Yeah, we've talked about this week after week. And I feel like, you know, he's been the punching bag of late. I mean, no one likes their jobs for you to take in. And the perception that, you know, getting into. I don't know, security issues and all that shit. I think that's sort of the, uh, excuse for how we can hate on it. Look, why is everybody got to have something to protest? Is it just, it's just our nature. It's just what we are. Like we, like, gotta hate this side. Gotta hate that side. Gotta hate this. Like, I admit that sometimes it's easy to sort of. Certain actions are just like, you know, certain actions are just, are lightning rods. But this sometimes just feels like I gotta, I gotta protest something, right? Well, it feels like just, it feels like this is a result of what the media does. They stoke a fire that's not even there. And if you're not someone that's aware enough to know you're getting played watching the media, right? You're just, it's a bunch of people reacting, I think, right? Like, but I do think you have a lot of very upset people that just, you know, want to use their first amendment rights. And that's completely fine. Because I mean, did you say the people down there in Miami, like literally like with different signs? It's like, what rally are we at? Yeah. So there's this protest. It was going viral and everyone's saying, have you seen the protests? And no one has seen them. I haven't seen any, but there was like groups of people. But everyone's holding a different sign. It's like, one's like, we didn't vote for Elon and the next one's like a BLM sign, the next one's an LGBTQ sign. So it just seems like everyone's protesting, but they're all protesting different things. Which is, I don't know, fine. I guess, you know, go into your thing, bro. I mean, here, these were the quotes from Elon. And I'd like to know, like, what issue do you take? What do you take issue with these quotes and what's attempting to be done? I'm just here trying to make the government more efficient, eliminate waste and fraud. And so far, we're making good progress, actually. There have been many good audits done by Inspector Generals and by the government accountability office. They just haven't been implemented. Nothing's been done. I think the GAO identified that there were 17 million dead people in the Social Security database several years ago. It's now 20 million. But we didn't do anything about it. Which doesn't sound crazy to me. No, I think that's probably 100% accurate. But I think I almost wonder if we're biased because we've been in business and you understand there's things you need to change that don't always change, right? So, but I, that's what I'm trying to wonder. Why is everyone so upset about this, right? Like, shouldn't we be applauding a limiting waste and fraud? I don't know. That's what I don't understand what the protests are about. This is in the tactic book of complainers. If I can't complain or bitch about the actual, like what we just read, what the goal of the way of what you're trying to get done. If I can't complain about that, I complain about how you're going about getting that done. Right. Because no one would, I think, reasonably argue, you know? Like, no one would argue with the goal of gaining efficiency with the federal government. If you are, you're just dumb. I think 9 out 10 people would agree with that. But if I want to be contrarian and I don't like the person that's in acting it, then I bitch about the way they're doing it. This is in the playbook of politics. You're right. The way they're doing it, which was, we don't like these young hackers in there doing it. Yeah. Because they're too young. Do you see how old he is? He couldn't be a day over 22. And you get as much as a security card. It's like, that's the same guy that serving you drinks. You know, when you go to dinner, all right? That's wild, man. The political playbook is, if I can't gain traction, disagreeing with your goal, I then gain traction by bitching about the way you get it done, and making hay out of that. Southwest Airlines will charge to check bags for the first time. You notice this is probably the big, like in scouring the news, this hit my sort of feed X Instagram was people bitching about this checking back fee for the first time. Launch basic economy tickets. For the first time in 50 plus years, Southwest Airlines will charge for checked bags starting May 28th. They really had to previously used free check bag as a major selling point. Elite frequent flyers and certain credit card holders will still get one or two free bags. The reason is there's pressure from the investors. They want to sell more seats. Make more money. They're right more revenue. Higher operational costs in the need to increase revenue. I mean, you know, damn it. It's a business of trying to make more money. I'm curious to see what the fee is. I mean, I noticed even when I was at the airport a few weeks ago, it was with American. It's definitely more expensive to check a bag than it used to be. Yeah. It was like between $15, $80. So as a business owner, right, if I'm running the airline, that's an easy way to add on some extra revenue. And I know it's getting more expensive, but I don't know. I feel like Southwest, I don't think this is good move for them because I think they had such a loyal cult following. It feels like giving up potentially. I get the money. It's like 800 million earnings this year, 1.7 billion by 26. That's a lot of money. But at what cost? You're perceived as the low cost carrier. For 50 years. And you've had it for 50 years. You better have the research to show that this isn't going to hurt. That's all I say. You know, you can make that 1.7 billion in fees, but are you reducing the top, the other number, which is sales? That's what I wonder. Because I feel like Southwest has a strong brand following. Like the people that I know fly Southwest or loyal to Southwest. So I'm interested to see if this is going to affect that. Because they still have other perks. Like I know you can fly with your significant other after a certain amount of miles or it's reduced tickets. And that's usually a good deal. So we will see. This was after fair and scheduled bags fly free as cited as the number one issue in terms of why customers choose Southwest. That was July of 2024. That's pretty strong data right then. Everything. Yeah. I mean, come on. Says what's changed is that we've come to realize that we need more revenue to cover our costs. Oh, it seems like a very dull statement. Well, it seems the other airlines are probably happy about it. You know, maybe it was for us as a consumer. Maybe it'll drive more competition for us. Yeah, exactly. Tesla rebounds after Trump defends Musk and brings EVs to the White House. Tesla shares about 15% on Monday due to week sales and uncertainty by Tuesday afternoon. The stocks have rebounded 5% after dawn from publicly defended Musk. Lots of defending on truth social. Trump called Musk calling him a truly great American and accused a radical left with a legally boycotting Tesla. He announced he would buy a Tesla as a show of support. One. How many? Yeah. I got by more than one. He could have made a cool billion on that on the freaking sale of what all the coins, the Trump coins. Yeah, the million dollar Trump currency for crypto. Yeah. So anyway, it's a it's the back and forth between Trump and Musk every week. And the haters not liking things. Speaking of crypto, Chris, what's happening in the crypto's market? It's down. Last week, Trump did sign an executive order for a crypto strategic reserve. So that's. I didn't see XRP was on that. XRP. Solana. I believe Ethereum. And you would think that would, you know, have the market up. It did not. Everything's kind of low in along with the stock market. So, you know, it is what it is. Patience. Any time to buy. Yeah, about to say. I'd be buying that XRP. It's like two bucks. And I feel like I don't know what the how big the headroom is. I just feel like it's $10 in a year or two. Yeah. I mean, that's like it coins it like I think 81. Was that 120, right? It'll probably go to 250. So it's like really great time to buy. But, you know, that's not usually what people do. They follow the fear. So. Along with the market. It's a little slow. But I think there's a lot of stuff going on behind the scenes that we're probably. We're trying to figure out. Yeah, Franklin Templeton joins the XRP ETF rush. Files preliminary application with the SEC. Yep. I mean, it's all indicators that this is clearly moving towards. Being part of the regular financial system. What is the XRP news? What is it right now? We record this show a little bit early. So, you never know by the time you're hearing this, it could be up or down 8,000%. But, we're like 7% today. 220. I think I'm going to go big on the second purchase here while it's. I'm buying the dip, baby. Buy the dip. You got to buy the dip. Don't take a dip. Buy the dip. What a nasty habit that is. You got to. What else we got today? Some tariffs. Yeah. The tariff news is like, okay, everybody's retaliating every day. Every day. Canada's coming back. We had some guests on our other show talking about the tariff tax and all the stuff that's happening between the countries. I think everybody's kind of like, okay. I do feel like we're sort of getting to this point where Trump is going to have to start to kind of in-game explain. You know, I got it at first. But now we're dipping into this territory where this stuff's really enacting. Let's explain. If there's some strategy, I know you can't give away your entire strategy. But, at a certain point, you're going to have to start if some of this data, some of these things that have nothing to do with him that are driving financial, they have to do with them. But, you know what I'm saying? We're enacted. I mean, no inflation number, what, 65 days, 70 days into his presidency is 100% to his feet. You know, his policies are not in play enough to both credit or hold against definitive every number yet. However, the sentiment he does have to sort of control with America. And I think he's going to have to start to sort of in-game explain what do you want? Okay. It's one thing to go, yeah, there'll be a little short-term pain. But at a certain point, you're going to have to explain what you anticipate happening and what you expect from your constituents. You know, how much pain, what's the pain tolerance? You know, like, I can hold out for some uncle, but at a certain point, the hand breaks. Yeah. I totally agree. And that's the sentiment I feel and people I talk to, everyone was super happy when he got in. There's things being done, but no one knows what's going on. Because like you said, all we have to feel like we hear about is Tesla, tariffs. And it's like, right, I can get on board with this if I know where we're headed. Yeah. What's the, like you said? Yeah, what's the rallying cry? Right. Tell me that this is going to drop interest rates, but explain why. Right. If that's our end goal, show me a little bit of the road map to get there without, and maybe that's what we all need to be kept in the dark. We know Trump's a negotiator. We know this is business at the end of the day. But I do feel this week many people have been like, yo, all right, dude. And they're getting annoyed, like Trump needs to stop talking so much. What are they doing? I think it's that we all need a little bit of reassurance right now. I think would be great. Yeah, totally agree. It's just like, like, all right, give us the, give us the play. And, and not even like politically just to support them, to support them. But give all Americans kind of a, all right, here's what you can expect. Here's where we're going with this, because it's, it has ventured. Again, being someone that generally supports the policies, or for the majority, supports the policies of that side right now. I even get a little, like, I'm trying to go down the court, and I'm looking for the pass, and I'm gonna, oh, but I don't know which way we're going. A little bit. So we got to call the play a little bit. What's, we've said what it is on some level, but it's time to come back around, because the last thing you want is the perception that it's throwing a bunch of darts and hope seeing what sticks, or just, or that there's not a plan. I don't think that that's what's going on, because I'm smart enough to know that a lot of smart people are pulling the right strings here. But I do think we've got a sort of course correct, or just course correct the country to know what to expect, or what the goal is, because I don't think ultimately being in a tariff war with every single ally we have is healthy. No. It doesn't feel like it. No, and I think that's why we're in the middle of the game right now. We're feeling the pain. It's like we're in half time, and we're not sure what's going to happen. Yeah. Because I think I'm confident. I'm confident, but I think the first 30 days, some of the benefits were so clear, the messaging was clear. I'm not as clear 30 to 60 days later. But I will say the one thing I'm clear on, Chris, and that is the trading card market. I did see a statistic. The trading card market in 2025 is up more than stock market. So, someone's going to message me and say, I'm full of shit on that. No, I didn't see a stock that, or something. And I was about, you know, as a whole, I tell you what Chris, here's what I know. I go into, you know, now I have my kids at trade and do stuff. You go to the store, you're looking at the shelves. Those shelves are barren, man. You want to talk about grown men fighting. Go watch two grown men fight over a pack of Pokemon. That's a funny thing. I might start a YouTube channel on that. I'll go into Walmart, and my kids are into the Pokemon. And I do grab a couple of packs here and there, but I'm not like hoarding it, like getting, you know, stealing every box out of the store. But I'll go, because I'm going in there to have a look at football cards, baseball cards or something, or something else, but then I'm looking at that because I'm into it now. And there'll be dudes like, you know, pulling back and forth on a pack of months. It's crazy. Have you seen people, have you seen the... I don't even know where they sell Pokemon cards. I've never even seen them in a store. There are groups upon groups upon groups of the Pokemon fanatics. People fight over a lot of things in Miami, but I haven't seen Pokemon cards in the middle of one of them yet. But I know there's somewhere it happens. Yep. All I know is tops, released their newest football cards, tops finest. Those little guy here on today. Look at how colourful that is, Chris. I mean, can you see that? Yeah, I'll put it where you can see the whole thing. Can you see the whole thing? I know. It's seen some. Hey, these things aren't cheap, man. It's in Miami. It's in Miami players. I know. So we got these tops, hobby box, tops finest, two autographs per box. I'm going to open one pack like I've been doing on air for the drama. These are fun, Chris. You got like... They've got more... What they call insert cards than anything. So you got your favourite players and... Fractors and holograms and autos and all that. So you got to watch the YouTube to get the full effect here. These are just... I mean, I'm impressed it's like a marketing guy like the graphics and all those stuff. How fun would that be if you're a graphic designer getting to work at like one of the companies. And you're like getting to do sports cards deciding that. Joel's agreeing. So we'll go first top pack, first pack magic here. Toss finest, pre-shared our friends and tops. Hey, pre-shared me more. They start sending me some stuff. You know, like send some stuff here. Let's see what we got here, Chris. Yeah, I'm just... This is pretty much a bagger box right here. It looks supposed to be all hits all day. Those BBs? Yeah. Yeah. We'll see how it goes. Oh. How beautiful that is. You know, I'm a cardo... Oh, Tim Teebo's in the box. Who knew? You got the throwback. Mike's single Terry. Ray Lewis, all these old school players. These are base cards. They do. Now they tell you these are common cards. They just come out and tell you on the card. Oh. We got an auto, first box auto. And it's a player. John Hannah Han. Hannah. John Hannah. I don't know who he is, Chris. But it's an auto. Autograph. In the box. That's a real auto. That's not like just made up, Chris. That's like pen written. Ooh, paint manning. The field generals. Who knows? I don't know these cards well enough to know like... Oh, that's a number one, Chris. This one's out of 290. Dan Mojahowski, the magic man. Who knows? Paint manning. You know that is, right? Oh, yeah. Kurt Warner. That's an old one. Michael Hall Jr. We got some reflection going on here. That feels like it could be numbered and that's a common. Okay. Roger Stahlbock. I mean, they throw it in the old school with the new school here, Chris. So... Is there any hitters in there? Yeah, that... I don't really know. These are... The player's names aren't ringing a bell, but some... You know, it got a numbered card in an auto. That John Hannah strikes me as a... Of all the autographs that you want out of the box. I'm not sure John Hannah is the highest on your list, but... No, I don't want T-bow. Yeah, exactly. We appreciate tops for making cool cards. I mean, this is definitely the... If you're an art lover, this is the set. Like, complete abstract... All kinds of stuff going on. Pretty cards. What's interesting to know is, like, tops is getting a licensey back. If you look, the helmets don't have the actual symbols on them. Because they don't have the full license of the teams. If licensed with the players, it's strange. All the licensing rules and sports cards. I've got more things that you can keep up with. But tops firing is hobby box. Check them out. I got two... I got another... At least one were autographing that box, so... I'm hoping it's not another John Hannah, but... I'm sure he was a great player in his day. There you go. It's fun. It's legalized gambling, Chris. Opened in the pack. It's like a scratch card for kids. Yep. Trade up. They're fun. At least they're worth something. You're open something that has value back when they're in.
