I am him. I am fattiest shade, and this is Seasonable Cloud. Smooth Jazz, yeah, smooth Jazz. Let me hear you say, ah, summertime, ok, so NBA season kicked off last night. This would be a great episode because when NBA season is back, I am a better person, I'm a functioning person and even though the NBA season then kicked off too well for me last night because I am a Dubbs fan, I am a Warriors fan, I am a Steffi fan, a massive Steffi fan. I am a trigger clay fan. I am a Dreymond Green fan A whimsically devious Dreymond Green fan whimsically devious Dreymond Green fan I am. And the NBA season kicked off last night.
Speaker 1:2023-2024 first game nuggets Lakers not mad at it, not mad at it. I'll tell you why I'm a little mad about it. Because I got Anthony Davis on my fantasy team. I got him on my fantasy team and kicked off that first half really good. I mean just fantastic. You know I'm playing my guy, sinbad in fantasy and I'm like I'm a D Looking fantastic. That was my first. That was no, no, I picked Booker first. I picked Booker first because Book is Book. Now I picked 80 second. That was my second, my second pick in the draft, and he looked good. He looked good last night At first half. Star studded, that guy was a star. He had 17 points. But guess what? He kicked off 17 points in the first half, second half and nobody had 17 points, 17 points. If you know sports, you know the NBA, then you know the man scores zero in the second half. You're Anthony Davis, you're AD. I mean sure God passes gas. Good gust of wind comes, anthony Davis, fall, he's done for the season. Yes, we know he's brittle, but damn it, you're Anthony Davis. Zero points in the second half hurts me. Hurts me because you're on my fantasy team. You'll be fine. I believe in AD. He'll be absolutely fine. Option A on the Lakers, he's option A, he'll be fine. So the Nuckas put out that win last night.
Speaker 1:Jamal Murray looked good, the Joker, the Joker looked good. I mean he was good first half, just like AD, kind of stalled out a little bit. Then he found his groove in the fourth. But the Joker, I mean, can't jump over a pencil. But boy, that's a good old fashioned 80s, 90s Center with, with, with, fantastic footwork. Now I know y'all gonna laugh at me when I say this if you're a big basketball head, but he's got a Kimmel Lodge one footwork you ain't got to. You know I'm saying I mean the jump shot. The jump shot he got is butter, even though it's to tap a wing on a bird when he shoots it but it's a fantastic jump shot. The man's got footwork. Had Anthony Davis who's a fantastic defender going left, going right, jumping around all over the place. He's a fantastic defender, but he had Anthony Davis all over the place, but nuggets win. That was last year's NBA finals matchup. Nuggets pulled it out. Pulled it out.
Speaker 1:The Bronle good. The Bronle good To be, to be the age of somebody's frustrated uncle. He looks good. He looked good. He played solid last night. You know what I'm saying you play real good. Before I get all the way in it, I forgot to tell you man, it's Halloween weekend, halloween weekend and anytime that is Halloween weekend.
Speaker 1:Down here in AZ, primarily Scottsdale, didn't that mean the costumes are popping out? We really love Halloween down here. That means the costumes is going to be wild. It's wild, you remember. I think there's late 90s, 2000. You can get on cable Scroll, get to the section Notice section. You can get to that part of the cable channels where things were a little fuzzy, but there's a nipple. There's a nipple. You got to squint, you got to be quick because you can miss it, but there's a nipple. That's kind of like how Halloween is down here in Scottsdale.
Speaker 1:What they didn't turn Freddy Cougar into a sex, sex costume. Freddy, the one known for torching you in your dreams, now can be the woman of your dreams, or your sex dreams at that. I guess you know what I'm saying. A power ranger who was known for defending Angel Grove now can defend your bedroom because the costume has turned sexy, sexified, sexified mummies, sexified Dracula's Dracula. But that's what Scott still turns into when it's Halloween time and as a guy, you're not going to be mad at it, you're not frustrated about it, you're not old. Darn it, damn it. I was looking forward to fantastic makeup work. I don't want to see boobs and breasts and booties, cheeks. No, you're okay with it. It's going to be a good time. But you know why I'm at this weekend and 11, 11 nightclub.
Speaker 1:And let me see, thursday is lyrics and lingerie, because R&B night and we're we're attaching ourselves to the sexy. So Thursday night is lyrics and lingerie. That's tomorrow. If you listen to it today, that's tomorrow because I'll be dropping it as soon as I get done with the episode. That's tomorrow. Lyrics and lingerie, that's R&B night. And then Friday we have rapper Bia. There's a whole lot of money in this motherfucker. There's a whole lot of money in this month. That's what I do when I be buying my coffee, because it always cost me like 10 bucks. There's a whole lot of money in this motherfucker Soon as I put out the car. There's a whole lot of money. You know what I'm saying? Because the shit's expensive. The coffee is expensive, even when I make it at home. I buy the espresso pods. The shit's expensive. There's a whole lot of money in this month. But Bia will be taking over Friday night. The original name for the Friday night event was 11 Shades of Scottsdale, but then we got Bia and Bia's just going to come through and turn it up. It's going to be crazy. It's going to be exciting. Friday night Again, if you listen to this today, tomorrow is lyrics and lingerie and Friday is rapper Bia. Saturday is just a flat out costume night. We're doing costumes all Thursday to Saturday, but Saturday night is costume night. It's a haunting at 11. 11. Woo man, woo man. So just the costumes I always enjoy.
Speaker 1:I've been in the club now a long time when it's Halloween down here and even though I was saying that it's a very sexy Halloween, it continues to be getting more sexy and sexy. You have a fear of you got your daughter. She's like 11. She wants to be a ballerina, but then she sees the female artist that she loved and the ballerina outfit she's wearing is something different. That's something that you pay to go to the strip cup, throw some money at. She want to wear that. You're like oh my God, this is not my life. This is not where this is going. You can't drive down that street. I don't ever want you to go down that street. Don't ever go down that street. Don't look at that costume. You're not wearing that costume. Now. You're going to wear a sheet for Halloween.
Speaker 1:But I have to say there are some really, really good costumes. Every year, every year, we take it serious down here. I'm sure it's not like Salem I don't know what Salem's at. I'm sure they're serious and they got black painted, with their eyes with blood, real blood on their forehead, but it's not like that. It's more fun. And detailed costumes for fun, not like up there are you know. You know it's not crazy like that. You know you got the real pigs blood on your kneecaps. It's not like that, it's more fun. But that's what we got going on at 11, 11 this weekend.
Speaker 1:And it should be fun. You know what I'm saying it should be fun. Last week, in my last week's episode, I kind of talked about not being able to sleep. Did I try anything new? No, I didn't. I didn't try anything new, but I'm working on it. I'm going to give me some tart cherry juice tonight. I tried it before. I'm going to try it again and see what happens.
Speaker 1:People like tart cherry juice. Yeah, it's got some stuff in there, some vitamins, some like some melatonin type stuff and that's supposed to help you sleep. And Arnold Arnold also said it's. You know, it's a good drink, something to drink, help you recover with the muscles and stuff. You know, if Arnold Schwarzenegger is telling you that and he looks like a muscle bound Santa Claus right now because you see him, he's got the white beard. Now, that's, that's my guy, that's Arnold. He's got the white beard and he's old, fucking with me.
Speaker 1:I told my boy last night I had found out that it was more Lopez birthday. More Lopez is 50. That's AC Slater. It's 50 years old. Now, I'm not saying he's going to hear this, but if he hears it and hears how I said 50 years old, he got the right to square up with me because I made it sound like he's 79. But damn, that's my guy AC, 50. And he can't. I'm not 50. Ac Slater the AC Slater next to Zach Morris, kelly Kopowski, lisa Turtle, samuel Powers, jessica Spano I know all the names because I watch the show.
Speaker 1:I love the show. He's 50 years old. My mind's blown. I cannot. I am old. I am old. I am old. That's what it is. But I will be working on doing some things with sleep.
Speaker 1:Now back to the NBA, because the NBA was on last night. Listen again. Fantastic time because the NBA is back. I love it. But the NBA season kicking off for me last night didn't end well. It didn't end well. You know why it didn't end well. Would you like to know why? People Golden State it's my guys, it's my guys. They played the Phoenix Suns last night. The newly retooled Phoenix Suns Fantastic. Kevin Durant, devin Booker, bradley Beale I can't say his name Nurchick, nurchiff, it's Nurchiff, nurchick, it's one of them. He's a seven foot center, good center, great pickup, fantastic. Those four guys are legit.
Speaker 1:Dubstook a L last night. Not happy about it. You know how I feel about Steffi Curry. You know how I feel about him. You know I got 55 shoes. You know I got all the jerseys. You know I got shirts made. You know I got Funko Pops. You know how I feel about Steffi Pulling up from 40 feet for no reason, busting your ass. You know how I feel about Steff Curry the shit's insane, right. You know how I feel about Trigger Clay no hezzy, no hezzy, clay, trigger Clay. Whimsically devious Draymond Green. You know how I feel about him.
Speaker 1:Took a L. Took a L last night. It's tough man. It's tough cause I put money on him. Yeah, you didn't know what was going here, did you? I put money on him, and that's part of the fun.
Speaker 1:Now I haven't won one time during the NFL season. I don't consider myself an NFL fish or not. You know, I consider myself a guy, sports guy who loves the NFL. But am I aficionado? No, nba aficionado. You don't know what aficionado is. I said I don't know what an Italian, but you know what aficionado is. Hit the dictionary, google it. There's a picture of me pointing to the NBA logo Aficionado. I know the NBA Backscreens downpicks. You know what I'm saying. I sayING a thing with a boat One, three, one, two, three zone Backside hell, weakside, hell. You know what I'm saying. I knew the game, I love the game, so I put the money up.
Speaker 1:I put the money up, not in Go hammer time last night, like I plan on doing for the rest of the season. It's a good chance that the next time I do a podcast I'll be homeless because your boy is going to put big Brad up this this season. We talking monster dockets, not 20 to 40 dollars. I'll be stretching out, flipping it, cutting it in half, stepping on it, making it work, making it stretch, not like that. Two hundred three hundred four hundred dollars for me. That's this big time betting. The next time you could hear me I could be homeless because I'm big time betting. That. It's eight games a night. I'm putting the duckies up. What's going to happen? I'm going to win.
Speaker 1:I lost last night because I get a little happy about Golden State and then Anthony Davis disappeared on me last night in the second half. I don't expect him to continue to do that because I have him on my fantasy, but I'm putting big money up. I lost last night. Clay Thompson trigger Clay disappeared on me a little bit, but that's OK. But I'm putting big money up. I don't fuck around.
Speaker 1:Now you know, I'm going to start getting into the I don't really do over. I mean not over. I'm sorry, I don't do money lines, but I am going to start getting into the money lines of the team that's going to win. I'm getting in all that, but I'm over under guy. I'm over Because I feel like I know the game of basketball.
Speaker 1:But that is the trick. That's the mood that smokes you out. That's the move you pull out the six shooter, put it close to your temple and it smokes you out. You think you know the sport, so you think you know the player, so you think you know what's going to happen. So you put the duckies up. You put the duckies up. This is still human effort. And if you look up In 80, 80, 80, 80, 80, give you zero points in the second half. What am I supposed to do with that?
Speaker 1:You know, I had an under on Aaron Gordon on the nuggets last night. He gave him 15. Maybe it was, I think it was 17, 15, 17 points. I had him getting under 14.5 and it was there all the way, until the blonde decided to treat him Like he had never seen a basketball before and not put his hand up. He hit a three and he hit a back door, cut for a dunk to put him over 14.5. I mean, what the fuck, bro? You know what I'm saying? But I didn't put the big duckies up last night. I put them up. I put them up tonight, start tonight, and we're going to work towards being homes. That's the goal Now. I'm going home with trophies every night. I'm going with the play. Be bro. My boy check it. My guy hold them. Who's DJ out here? My guy hold them. Monday night football who gives a fuck? Right the game I forgot I was like Vikings. And who gives a fuck? He won seven grand. Seven G's.
Speaker 1:I know somebody who took a $2 game and won seven G's. What I mean by that? The game nobody really cared about. Right, there's this Monday night football. It's a $2 game. He put $10 down. One seven grand. Who does that? No way, what Seven G's? As he was saying that he won, I was slowly putting my ski mask on because I wanted to visit him. I was like, oh shit, you won seven grand. And I started my face. I was muffling a little bit while I was putting the ski mask on. You want some grunker and I will. You live at, bro. You know what I'm saying, because I was going to run up on him. Man, you come right out of a comic book.
Speaker 1:Seven grad masks coming on my face. I'm looking for the. You know. You know what I'm saying, Because he just won seven grand, putting up $10 on a $2 game. Incredible, and that's what betting to do to you?
Speaker 1:You never know. I think it's a better lottery ticket. You know what I'm saying. You're not going in 90 million, 100 million billion dollars. It's a fantastic. It's a fantastic scratcher. It's fantastic Cause you know the sport.
Speaker 1:You know the sport, you love the sport or fuck it. You just next to somebody and you like I mean you know what, I'm put five dollars on whatever you putting down and you put the five dollars down. You won 150 bucks. 150 dollars get you a piece of good ass. Man down on a certain part of town. That's some nice ass for 150 dollars.
Speaker 1:I'm not saying I know it was in a Reddit post, I'm just saying that's what the Reddit post says 150 dollars get you a nice piece of ass. Man, you know what I'm saying. I'm not. Don't spend your money on sketchy spots at 150 dollars worth of ass. Go ahead and get you some food, some target stuff. But that's what I heard. That's why I read in the Reddit post it was 150 dollars get you some nice ass.
Speaker 1:But you could win 150 dollars for a whole post cause you was next to your partner. Your partner was like man, go ahead and just put five dollars. He said I'm gonna put five dollars down with you, bro, and you won 150 dollars. Man, it's possible. It's possible. Gotta know the game. But that's how they get you. You think you know the game. You, looking at the averages, you look anywhere. Let me stop, man, cause I'm putting the money down. I'm putting the money down. I was watching, I was listening to Chris Delilah and he has a podcast. I don't like his podcast cause he's funny. I can send him myself or send my funny guy and he had a podcast and he was talking about sex and cause I said switch. That's why I do, Let me just switch. This is what I do Three to one, one, two three. What the heck is bothering me.
Speaker 1:Well, he was talking about sex, you know, and he was talking about the time. He was talking about the time. How long too long, long too long, long too long, too long, too long, too long, long enough, not too long, way too long, too short, you know, seven to 12 minutes, seven to 12. What time you going to work? Seven to 12. Then my hours this week seven to 12. Seven to 12 minutes. So you got seven minutes. 12 minutes, that's what's in the tank. That's a respectable. That's respectable. 12 minutes is an NBA quarter. Maybe you got three, four TV timeouts in there. We ain't including the TV timeouts, but 12 good minutes. Hmm, that's a stat worth talking about after the performance. Seven minutes, you know you backed up train and you need to let that go, so it was probably out of there really fast, but 12 minutes of respectable. Now, you could be younger and you could. You know I was younger, you know.
Speaker 1:I was always felt a very incredibly hulkish about the activity and I would still, you know, you know, you know and you know, and I felt good about it. But guess where it landed? At 12 minutes, because that's my magic time, 3045 an hour. I feel bad for her. You know why I got a sweat problem. There's a sweat problem to go along with that much pumping and in your in that time frame, you're required to be creative. That's a lot of moving and I carry sweat all over the place. It's a lot of moving. So then you got different stains of sweat out 3045 an hour. Have I accomplished it? Yes, did Jesus walk on water? He did have accomplished that amount of time. But you feel me? Imagine NBA Finals Lakers. I'll use the net. Even though they swept, I was, yeah, it was the net.
Speaker 1:Fourth quarter, three minutes left in the game, tight game. Shaquille knew how to step to the line. Fourth quarter, three minutes left in the game Shaquille knew at the free throw line. You know, sweat was dripping off shack at that time. That's me. At the eight minute mark, I'm already feeling bad because it's hurricane, hurricane, but you can call me, but that's what I'm saying. You know, I'm on top and I'm making it hot, but then you got the drip drop. That don't stop. Man, you come right out of a comic book.
Speaker 1:Everybody got their own groove. But 30 minutes, 45 minutes, hour special, or the Couch, isn't that great. You know I'm saying 30 minutes, 45 minutes of just. You know, saying it's a lot of creativity, it's arts and crafts. You know I'm saying it's Bob Ross, it's Martha Stewart's. Lot of it's not arts and crafts. A lot of creativity is a lot of moving around, you know.
Speaker 1:You know new positions, positions, positions. I got three that I go to. That I feel like a winners. I'm not going to tell you what they are because they're my secret weapons, but I got three that I go to. That makes me, that makes me comfortable, where I can sweat in peace and it doesn't get into our eye, where you know it burns. You know you can sweat and burn, assault and some other shit. You're getting your eye and you burn. You know I'm in LA playing ball and then you know I'm saying you sweating, getting the sweat on and getting your eye burn and you know you tough it out because you playing with the fellas and you know, sam, but that's a legit burn. That ain't nothing to be fucked with.
Speaker 1:There's soap Sweat. We don't know who wins. We don't know who wins when it comes to the eye burn. Does the soap get you or does the sweat get you? Some people may go with the soap. I like to think the sweat is worse, because soap you trying to be clean, you know the sweat is the best. I mean, you know the sweat, we don't know. You know you some salt in that hole, but you don't know what else is in the sweat.
Speaker 1:I need to look up what else is in the sweat. We're gonna find out. Let's look up. Let's look up the time. Let's look up how much. Yeah, I didn't have this, I just decided to think about this right now. Let's look up how much time, see, let's see Of time Should you have sex? Smaggin it. See, get out of here. I did not look this up, I didn't look it up. I promise you, when goats know shit, they know shit. I don't know if that's got the SLAM sheep, whatever, but goat when goats, when you go, you know shit. So how long should vaginal sex actually last? The sex therapist surveyed say that anywhere from seven to 13 minutes is desirable. I didn't know this, but when you a goat, you know this, you know this type of stuff, you know it's interesting.
Speaker 1:I'm just seeing that you can finally want to find a song, just hum a part of it in Google. I didn't know that it's right, cause I was doing I type it in. I seen this. I'm like that's pretty cool. I've always wanted this, cause. You know, you know a song but you can't think of the word. I want to be able to hum it. And here it is. How long has this been here?
Speaker 1:Nobody told me about the hum app. It's on Google. It's not even an app you could just. It's just right here under the the nasty stuff that I searched, and it's just right here. And it's kind of sweet to be under the nasty stuff.
Speaker 1:Because what if you want to listen to bum and grind? I know you can listen to R Kelly, but you can listen to R Kelly If you just can't tell people you listen to R Kelly, I don't listen to R Kelly. I listen to R Kelly. I don't listen to R Kelly. I listen to R Kelly, I don't listen to R Kelly, like that. You know what I'm saying. Y'all, shame on y'all. I listen to them sometimes, though, but you could just hum it.
Speaker 1:Let me see this, let me see if I can, let me try, let me see, let's see if it. Oh man, I got a download. This, let's see. Wow, wack, let's see, I put my Apple ID. Listen, you ever try to put your Apple ID is? It had to download the app and it was like verification required. And you ever try to put your Apple ID and it just never seems to work the first time, the first time around, step by step. Rest in peace, suzanne summers. It never works. You always have to put it in the second time or third time. You're like bro, I know I'm typing this password in. This is the password.
Speaker 1:It never works but, I, also didn't know that they had the home thing when you could just hum and then that was that's the move. I did not know that at all. That's pretty cool. But yeah, seven and 13 minutes, seven and 13 minutes. And I'm also not a music person. I'm not putting my hard work in the music in the background.
Speaker 1:I don't know what that's about either and I'm one of the weirdos. You know I could have home improvement on in the background. You know, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn. You know I could put that in the background and I could do the hump to hump. I don't know what that's about. There's some serious issues in there. But, like a lot of people like to get to music. You know what I'm saying. You got class. You probably got a little Chris Brown or Marvin Gaye or something like that going on. You know I'm not a big. I'm not a big music person. I like that. If the windows open, I like to hear somebody get shot and stabbed in the street while I'm putting in the seven to 12. While I'm putting in the seven to 12, somebody's outside getting shot and stabbed. That's my soundtrack. That's what I'm digging into. Man, you come right out of a comic book.
Speaker 1:This is why I was screaming help. I'm like, yeah, she need helping here too, man you come right out of a comic book.
Speaker 1:But that's R at 096. Everybody has their own thing. If you're truly classy, you probably got a little Kenny G in the background. Kenny G in the background, I actually probably could get to that. My problem is, if I enjoy the song, I'll start to sing the song in my head. And if I start to sing the song in my head then I forget what I'm doing, because I love music a lot. I love music. Music is my shit. It's therapy. But what if I'm putting in the seven to 12? You know what I'm saying. I get to six, I get so and I start seeing SWB, weak in the knees, in my head. Now I can't get to the seven minute, where I'm at my best, because now I'm seeing SWV. It's in my shit now. That's why I can't do the music Now when I'm watching the show.
Speaker 1:It's happened before, no lie. It's happened. Where a situation was happening and I got a good, I get chuckled was modern families in the background, and I shouldn't have modern family on because I'm a big modern family fan. It more than likely was either. Cameron Mitchell was a thing going on. He says something and I laughed. How do you get out of being serviced? You laughed, fucking modern families in the background. Two gay guys just made me laugh. While I'm getting serviced by the woman, I have shows on in the background. I have shows on in the background. Modern family is my shit. I should never put that on. Cameraman Mitchell are my guys. I should never put that on. They're hilarious. I should never put something like that on. But everybody has their thing. Music is mostly a thing. I've just never been that guy where I'm just like yeah.
Speaker 1:You got it on shuffle. What if you got it on shuffle? Hell Mary from Poc comes on. You know what I'm saying. Hell Mary from Poc? Why? At sexy time? Yeah, that's a risk I'm not willing to take Because I'm down to get violent in that situation. Hell Mary isn't a nice song. That isn't some shit that they playing in a Boston church. That's some gangster shit and it can get strange.
Speaker 1:Man, 7 to 13 minutes is what the professional say. I'm not really a professional, but I'm just saying that's what it said. On Google I found out that you could just hum the music. Right above that was the therapist saying that is 7 to 12. 7 to 13. I put in 7 to 12. They saying 7 to 13.
Speaker 1:You ain't getting the extra minute unless it's a holiday. If I'm in a good mood it's three days before Christmas I give you 13 minutes. I ain't going to give you 12. If it's New Year's Eve, give you 12 and a half. If it's Valentine's Day, I'm going to give you the regular, because I don't. You know what I'm saying. You got a gift for something. I'm going to give you the regular. You already got the gift. You can't get the extra minute because that's you know what I'm saying? I'm older. When I was younger, I was a little bit more considered. As I get older, I got to survive on Earth. What if the 13 takes me out? I really just be rambling on here and I love it. I love that people listen to me. I just be going. I don't know, this is a fact, though. 7 to 12 minutes, I mean, jesus Christ, that's fantastic. They say 7 to 13. I say 7 as well, but let's, let's, let's continue. Whoo. Whoo Whoo.
Speaker 1:I like that, that little sound right there. Whoo, I'm not often get asked. People want to come and like sit down with me and talk to me about marketing and using their social media platform. I get asked about that a lot. I'm downtown Phoenix. If you hear a horn outside, you know that's what that is downtown. If you hear a horn outside or you know, watch out, mother, you know, you know downtown's. They're not, they're not to be fucked with. But I'm not going to be fucking with you. I am gonna go downtown. The big I got I don't know what I said I got. I don't even gonna ring and say I'm just like dude, this is so I want to go. I love it, I love it, I do. I want to be in contact with him, ask songs as well. It's not great to do that while the Warriors are losing. But you know we're going to the World Series and people was down here acting a fool. You know they was like waving cars, yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1:I don't know how base people I don't know, I've never been around when baseball people win some shit. So I don't know how baseball people act when they win some shit. That's American Pie, you know, that's you know, I don't. I don't. That's Babe Ruth, I don't think you know. That's some real American shit, like you know what I'm saying. You know I'm saying some real American shit, you know. So I don't know how baseball people act. More Bud lights and hot dogs being thrown at each other. I don't know. I don't know how they act because I don't watch baseball.
Speaker 1:But Phantac, I'm a sports guy. If it's on ESPN and I see, you know it's a whole, they got a whole segment and they going through the clips and the highlights, I watch all shit. I was good, that's. I don't think I can't tell you a play. I can't tell you what they running, I can't tell what. Where's the zone at? The words are isolated. So one on one. You know I'm saying I don't know he threw the ball, so it's like he threw the same speed every time. The picture threw the same speed every time, but now it was a curve, it was a change up to him. One hand, five hand. I don't know baseball, but I don't know what baseball people do, but I heard him cheering and acting a fool last night. So I guess it's just like every other team that wins that we all get, while they get a little drunk, to get active, to get happy, you know, and there you go. But anyway, back to what I was saying.
Speaker 1:I get asked a lot about. You know people talk. You know people know me here as a guy that is fantastic with his social media, and I mean primarily the Graham. I'm a big fan of him, but I like to consider myself a aficionado. I brought you there. I was going to buy a bag of fish and, out of all platforms, learning to talk a lot more.
Speaker 1:But I'm learning. Youtube, those are my two that I'm learning. But Twitter, facebook, I understand very well and I could do some things on it. But Graham is where I focus a lot of my time at, in trying to market the things that I do, you know. So I get asked a lot hey, you know, can we sit down and talk? Can we have a meeting? The problem with me is I'm not a people person, but I have a people person gig that I do, right. So, in order to continue to get the cookies so I can go into heaven, I have to try really, really, really, really, really, really hard to be a people person. People person work every day To be OK with people. It's very hard, but I work, so people ask me questions.
Speaker 1:I answer questions For a long time. People say, man, you should charge for that. That's, that's consultation. That advice is very, very, very money worthy. It's very of the duckies.
Speaker 1:But I just be wanting to help and I'm sure, as I said I loud and I think it, it'll still be used against me in the heavens court of law, because I be thinking like I ought to do nice stuff for people, like it doesn't help when I pull up to the gas station and the homeless person or the person who wants to still homeless, wants to wipe the clean my windshield. It doesn't help when I do this, I make and then I give them the money. That's not like I was supposed to work or I have. I have a boiling inside reaction that even bleeds out to my eyes and my face when they're asking for money and I give them the money. You know they just want the money, you don't care. But I'm sure they could tell easily that I have infuriated this man to the max by asking him for a dollar. It's not supposed to be like that. You want a dollar, man? I got a dollar, here you go. You want two dollars? I got two dollars? Here you go. It's supposed to be a little bit more free flowing. Ok, doesn't mess up your day, doesn't mess up your time, doesn't mess up your minute. You just get in the. You know, but I do. I'm pumping gas.
Speaker 1:Pumping gas is never the most fun thing. It's not something that we'd be like. You know what? After this coffee, I'm excited to go to the quick trip. That's not what we do. We go to get gas.
Speaker 1:It's annoying as a part of the system, except for my boy, davion, who has an electric car, who will let you know how much he doesn't have to go to the gas station at all None anymore, I don't have to go and how much he enjoys the HOV. Whatever right. You know what man? You are in a court of law. That's what. That's what they're going to say to me upstairs. Look, man, you are in a court of law. That's what they're going to say to me upstairs.
Speaker 1:That's why I got to figure out a better way To To deal with people. But I'm working on it. But people ask me and I answer the questions. Is it for other reasons? Yes, but I answer them. So people always want to know, like, what can they do to showcase what they're doing, or to help their business out, or you know how to get more followers, be more of an influence. I have those answers. Now. There's probably a hundred and fifty more, not more than that. A hundred and fifty more people. More, not more than that. A hundred and fifty more people that are better than me, but not much better.
Speaker 1:They're not much better, but they probably are better than me, right? Not much, probably a little better, but I get hit up about it. So I like to talk to people while I tell them I had a call yesterday and I'm supposed to. I might end up interviewing her. I think I am, but I'm going to mess this up and I apologize. But she's into like healing people, like chakras and stuff, and I want to say Rafiki, but that's Lion King.
Speaker 1:Rafiki, that's Lion King. That's not the name of it. That can't be the name of it. I know there's a skit on YouTube that involves Lincoln Osiris, played by Robert Downey Jr, where he is stuck in the Lincoln Osiris character and it's just like some outtakes or like their own little skit they did before YouTube skips became like massive and it's really funny, even though I know that y'all want to hang him for that shit. But I'm not going to let y'all hang Robert Downey for that, y'all leave him alone. But the skit is hilarious. He talks about chakras and shit. Anyway, I know it's not Rafiki.
Speaker 1:Rikiki, that's a ghetto woman's name, but it's not Rafiki, because that's Simba. I said Simba, that's Simba and that's Lion King, but I can't think of the name of it, but it's dealing with chakras and healing and quietness and meditation and all that stuff and all that nice human being lining yourself up with spirits, and it's a thing that a lot of people do and a lot of people go to and get done. I don't really know the ins and out of it, but she has a business doing that and she's a friend of mine. She asked me about it and she asked me how could she increase, you know, the visuals for what she does? And that's unique because you know, first you got to ask yourself is there a group inside of the Instagram space that follow, watch and like for that type of stuff? And I think there's a. You know there's a. There's a fucking group for just dirty toenails. I feel like people look at everything. There is a market for it. There's a space for it inside of Instagram where you can market that. So that's the first thing she's got to do.
Speaker 1:I told her well, the first thing you got to do is you want to try to find pages that you know it would be successful. You know, because consider successful Instagram pages and you want to go through, you want to make sure it's authentic. You go look at the likes. You go look at the people. You know what to look for. You know lopsided followers no, no, no profile with lopsided followers, no post. All those things all indicate some sort of fake follower, fake bot situation going on.
Speaker 1:But you could go through and you can do your own research on a page and you can find out if it's authentic or not. Once you find about three or four of those pages, then you know there's some type of market for it based off of. You know how many likes they're getting and you know the off off. You know it was authentic. So you can go through the likes, go through the comments, you can check once you find it is.
Speaker 1:So then you kind of use those pages as a guide. This is what I'm telling you the pages as a guide. Set yourself up to kind of see how they're, how they got their page set up aesthetically, pleasing you know what I'm saying. I mean it's nice, it's a good. Would you like your page to look like it looked like that? Well, use as a guide and then, once you kind of get in your groove, you can go ahead and forget about what they do you. Just now. You're in your own groove, but you want to use them as a guide and you also want to steal their followers.
Speaker 1:So I told her those pages that you find and that you like and that they represent kind of what you do or what you do when they post a new picture. You I mean with pages like that I told her you don't want to wait a week after a picture is posted or nothing like that. You want to get in there as soon as they possibly as soon as they post. You want to get in there, especially if you feel like the page is authentic. You want to get in there and start following about 50 to 100 people a day. Does that have to be at one time? Just kind of spread it out throughout the day.
Speaker 1:Collect those followers now, because you want to collect an audience that makes sense when you post. You don't? You know, like right now I have a lot of people in the city that you know that follow me because I post memes and videos and I post club stuff. Now it's going to be hard for me when I want to switch over and I want to start posting sports stuff or I want to start posting, you know more movie stuff, which I want to do, you know. So I got to build an audience for that. The Gram isn't going to say, oh man, look, he's posting movie stuff. I'm going to reward him. Now, when you post what you're known for, the Gram is going to reward you. So that's the goal.
Speaker 1:I mean, you got all types of things when it comes to posting. They got all the shit, they got times and the best times and all these things like that. And those are all true because you want to reach your audience when they're on, when they're online, and you got your insights for that and it not actually just like an exact science, but you can use it, as you know, a tool for when you want to post, right. So, um, loading up I say loading up, you understand what I'm saying, you feel me? Loading up on your, on your competition, is what you must do. Now, really, that's really the ABC of it is using them as a guide, snatching their followers, their likes, because you want their most recent posts going there, those people who just like something they're active, they're on right now, they like that stuff. Go on there, follow them 50 to 100 a day.
Speaker 1:I have a method that I could talk about. That'll help you be able to find those people who haven't followed you back, and ain't an app it's not like that, it's more hand-to-hand combat. But you can get that information, you can see that list and then you can go unfollow those people back that haven't followed you and then you you repeat that, you repeat those steps for those pages that you found the simple hand-to-hand combat. But within two weeks your numbers look different and you'll start to see people who really really dig into what she does or what you do. They'll start to respond to your post and the gram because I don't like to call it the a-word because I just think that's overused with the gram We'll see the switch.
Speaker 1:Now, the gram may be a slow process of truly understanding that you're moving into a different spice. You see a different spice, but you've got to keep going. You want to keep pushing and that's what I was telling you yesterday. It was like you have to pull that audience in. It's hard when you're not doing the mains like makeup or fitness, or just your ass is out or you know, or memes or videos. It's hard when you have like a specific niche, you have to build for it and that's kind of like the best way to do it. Hand-to-hand combat is the best way to do it. Now I have some software and stuff that I've used over the years and I still use Rort now. I don't know why I have the exit just popping out of nowhere. That I still use right now.
Speaker 1:But hand-to-hand combat is the best way to go and you have to find your audience. You have to find people who have already broken through, especially when you have, when you know you don't have none of the mains, food and stuff like that. You have to find your audience. You have to use them as guides because their formula is working. You just want to get okay, this is what they did they posted. This is how they did the caption. Okay, cool, you've been doing that.
Speaker 1:Then you get into a groove. Once you in a groove, then you can start flipping things how you want. And once you in a groove, you flip things how you want. You're building your audience with it. Now you are off and running. Now your business is moving a little bit towards the right direction. Where you want to go with the duckets to go. You want the duckets to go up. You want the. You want the duckies to fly with you. As the page grows, you want the duckies to grow.
Speaker 1:Now again, I messed that up. It's not Rafiki Rikiki, that is not it. Rikiki is a female that smokes black and miles in the hood. That is Rikiki's not it. Rafiki is Lion King I cannot think of that shit. But it deals with chakras and a line in the spirits. It's so bad. If you know what it is, you're more than welcome to email me or tweet me.
Speaker 1:I can't remember what it was, but those are some small tips that you could do. They're actually gigantic tips that if you are sitting up there watching a show and you just chilling and you want to build for your business or whatever you're doing, that's a fantastic way to get into it. Now you do. I wouldn't recommend I honestly wouldn't recommend going over 50, maybe 60 followers a day, just because you don't want to risk being blocked or anything like that. But they have limits, which I think is like 150 a day. But 50, 60 allows me not for you to come complain to me. 50, 60 is what I recommend.
Speaker 1:If you go over that, anything happens, that's on you. You can't come back to me. I'm lawyered up. All right, you come after me. I'm lawyered up, all right. All right, you come after me and you'll be hearing from my little. Touch me and I'll sue.
Speaker 1:Wait, how much time I got. Where am I at right now? Where am I at what's the time? Oh, 55 minutes. Oh boy, I was in a. Oh boy, I was in a. I was in a soldier day.
