Oh, yeah. He's the fear factor guy. I think that's why it got a lot of attention. Is the way he would do it. Yeah. I didn't even know that he was a comedian at first. Or I knew he was the from Fear Factor. And then I guess later on found out that he was a comedian as well. And I was like, oh shit. And then he did his podcast. Yeah. And I didn't know that he was also, he was also an MMA fighter, right? Yeah, yeah, he trained in jujitsu, I'm pretty sure. Right. Yeah. Kickboxing tournaments and stuff like that. Yeah. Yeah, I. Think, he was gonna do that from maybe age 12 to age 20. And then somewhere around age 20, he got like hit in the head hard one time and then said, I don't want to keep get hit. I need to do something else, you know. And I think he was doing comedy and fighting at the same time and then realized that if he went full time comedy, he could probably make it. And he kind of needed to get away from that kickboxing anyway. So then went into that and then got a development deal for, sitcom about a baseball player, and then that got canceled. And then he made it on Fear Factor, and it was like over after that. You know, he got lucky. With that one. Yeah. Need a couple breaks here and there and then life is different. That's what, I hear that, Mark Cuban says you only have to be lucky one time. Yeah, I was just listening to Mark Cuban on the Theo Vaughn podcast. A little closer, bringing a little closer. Yeah, we usually say like a fist away from the mic is super ideal, but your level sounded good back there. But maybe on here, right there. This is probably. Good, That's good. Well, yeah, we we, we just the little Joe Rogan Wikipedia intro right there. But we're jumping in. We are, we're live. We're not live, but we're recording. Okay, cool. We're in with, Mr. Victor from Neutral Grip IV here at bottom. Also in our same building as well. Mr. Victor, nice to meet you. Thank you for joining us. And I appreciate you. Thank you Justin. Thank you Matthew. Absolute pleasure to have you on man. And it's MJ 38 right. Yeah. That's us. That's it. Productions. Yes, sir. Yeah it's crazy. It's just kind of like how we met was sort of a random turn of events as well. Just kind of in passing literally at the door, like leaving and coming from or. I was, I was, on my way to, go see a one of our clients to give them an IV drip, because I remember I had my IV po and my. Yeah, yeah, backpack with the drip and everything in there, and I open the door. You guys were coming in, you and the two gentlemen. Yeah, yeah. Ace. Ace. Right. Ace and. Nathan. This one. And Nick. It's a great memory. Good job. And then, I mean, I left when I did my drip for about an hour and a half. When I came back, you were leaving. I was like, okay, we got to meet. It was. Perfect. Yeah. What do you guys do here? How's it going? You know, the podcast. What are y'all doing? Y'all? Y'all look like y'all medical or nothing. I, I look very casual and black, so. Yeah, it was pretty interesting. Yeah. That was. And, Ace AC I'm so ace, right? Yeah. He said, yeah. We're music producers. We came Roger. Some a song for every game. Yeah. Jingle. A little jingle or something. Oh, yeah. So you know what? Yeah, yeah. Well, I'm going to contact them for sure on that drip. Drip. Nice. Come on. That guys like it. Whatever. Amigos or something. Yeah, we drippin. Keep on dripping baby. Yeah. That's awesome. Yes I guess that can I segue. We're kind of into. So yeah we mentioned a little bit earlier the new to drip I.V.. So kind of just give us a brief explanation and kind of what that what the company is. So company the company name is IV neutral drip. Okay. And, basically it's nutrition through the ivy. Got it. So, there's a lot of ways you can get vitamins into your body, through foods. Right? Of course. But the reality is that the foods that we are eating right now are, they have they contain a lot of preservatives, 100%. And so and, the the beans are eating. Now, everything that we're eating is, is not, does not have the right value of nutrition that we need. Right. And even when you eat it, your body is not able to absorb 100% of other things you eat. And, so unfortunately, if you don't have good eating habits and a good balance on what you're eating, you might be missing out on some of the minerals and nutrients that your body needs to feel. Well, so Ivy nutritive is there to give your body, the, the vitamins through the ivy. And that is the best way to absorb your vitamins right now. God never intended for us to be on a drip all day long, right? But this is a good way for your body to receive the nutrients that he needs. And then you can feel the difference as to what it would be if you just follow a nice, disciplined diet to include all the minerals and proteins and and vitamins that your body needs. And this gives you it gives you the experience of what it is to feel alive. So that's what we say. I one of our asymmetric gets on our our thing right here on under our name is for your life. Because you will within 24 hours, your body will absorb all this nutrients and your health, your cells are going to become healthier, stronger. Your immune system is going to be boosted. And so you're going to feel that difference, within 24 hours, I mean, you're going to have more energy, mental clarity. If you were feeling a little sick, you're going to feel that your sickness is going away because your immune system has been boosted up. It's just like if you have an army, right? And you're fighting, if you don't feed the army, you can give the, the, the army that you have hydration, hydration, they're going to become weakened and they're going to lose the battle. So your body's has an army. It's called the immune system. And if you don't feed the immune system, what he needs is going to be weakened. So any little germ that comes by your way is going to make you sick. Yeah, like I have for the last few years. I've only gotten sick one time, and recently it was with Covid. It was about two months ago, but literally I isolated myself. But my symptoms was a little sneeze. Maybe a little cough. And that was about it. I didn't had no fevers, no headaches, no body aches, none of that. So had your sense of smell and all. That, that sense of smell, taste all that, you know, but I just for protection of others, I isolate myself in a hotel, for about five days, and then I was good. This is I'm, I'm an author, and, you know, as a professional. And so I'm very conscious about making sure I don't transmitting to others germs. I mean, of course, my staff didn't want me there either. Because my said, like, oh, get out of here. Don't go home. You can stay home and. You can stay at home. Yeah, that's a vacation. For a vacation for you. All right. With vacation for. Us. And we not to hear your boss in there. Yeah, that's that's. Crazy. And you said that the the so the the drip, like, I guess the drip procedure. That's more I guess your body's able to more easily digest those and utilize those nutrients. I, it absorbs twice as, straight through the bloodstream. Right. Bloodstream. So your body is able to absorb 100% of all those vitamins and take it to where it needs to go. Yeah. So I guess it like, skips the entire digestive tract. It just goes right into that. Yeah. So you're saying. Yeah. Because really when you eat food, I mean, it's going to go into your circulatory system, but it has to you have to break it into your mouth. And then as it goes into your stomach, there's acids and fluids that will dissolve into food, break it down and break it down. And then it goes all through the small intestine, etc., to continue to absorb some of the nutrients, but it doesn't have enough time to absorb all of it. Yeah. Especially if you go to a buffet. I mean, imagine how much food you have, right? That's a lot of food. And for the body is like, okay, I'm just gonna get a little bit of this and that's it. You know, everything else goes, goes to waste, right? Yeah. Right. So so I guess I guess so. So what are some of the or you're mentioning some of the or the inability that some of our foods nowadays I'm sure all the preservatives, GMOs and all that stuff and it makes a little bit harder to receive all the nutrients. What are some of the nutrients that you think or vitamins that we are missing like the most? Like the the biggest ones that are the most important that we don't really get. So, I mean, the I want to tell you that the drips, the drips that we have contained vitamin C, okay, okay. Vitamin C is very important in energy and also to boost your immune system. We also have the B-complex. So the b-complex is a lot of, nutrients also that your body needs. So is B one, two, three, five and six, vitamin B12, all of these vitamins are essential for, for healing, for immune system, for wellness. Meant some some minerals that your body needs as well. We don't need it. We don't necessarily get them. There's studies that show that a lot of athletes that are working out too much out there, they excrete some some of those minerals and they get sick, sooner because their bodies, don't have those minerals and they start getting chronic illnesses, so they die younger at 55, 60, 65. Instead of leaving, you know, somebody does it never work out? They might live up to 90 because they never street any of this minerals right there. It's like driving your car all the way to your max RPMs. Exactly. Going to wear and tear your engine. And so you got to make sure that you maintain that that body you have, the other ones, we, we also have a really good one is called Bluetooth ion. Okay. And it's a powerful antioxidant. And Bluetooth ion, gets rid of what is called free radicals. So free radicals are basically are found in preservatives. Or when you breathe stuff, when you put something on your, on your, on your body, any lotion, you might have some chemicals that go inside. And they will they're, they're going to disrupt the harmony of your cells. So you how many your cells are have to have a natural balance of energy. Right. Yeah. So once that free radical comes in it disrupts that energy and it makes the cell weaken. So now you feel fatigue tired. You have a headache. You can focus it because your cells are depleted from from with these free radicals. So what glutathione does it comes in and gets rid of these free radicals. Right. So I always say like imagine if you were like at a concert, right? Everybody's having a good time, right? All of a sudden there's a fight that breaks up, breaks out everybody. There's a fight. So that harmony that existed is no longer there until the police get there. And they get rid of this people that were causing the fight. Now the harmony is restored. So good signs like the police or the security guards, they come inside your body and get rid of all these free radicals. Now your body is is in harmony again, and now you're in. You have mental clarity. You're. If you were feeling sick now, you don't have that sickness anymore. It's also an anti-inflammatory. So if you had any, pain, or inflamed inflammation responses in your body, it also help with that. So we're not there to cure any disease because we're not doctors and there's it's not a medical treatment is more of a esthetic. But the benefits are there when when you take vitamins. Yeah. Yeah. And you're saying you had a medical background as well. You're, you're. I'm an, I'm a registered nurse, a vascular access specialist. So basically we're the, the leaders in the industry in Texas, when it comes to I.V. sticks or infusion therapy. So we have our vascular access board certification from the Association for Vascular Access. And we also have our certified registered nurse infusion credential by the infusion our society. So we're the only company that that is owned by an aunt that has those credentials in probably the whole United States. Wow. So it's it's crazy, right? We also have the advanced technologies of using ultrasound because a lot of people fear the needle. I'm one of them. I'll be honest. And and and so what I had to do is think for the patient, right. Or for the client more than patient. And and so we we use our technologies. We have ultrasound technology which actually we can put the probe on the skin and we on the iPad we can see the vein. So we don't have to blindly stick anybody that we can see a vein. So a lot of a lot of facilities don't have that actually probably none of that. So we have that that privilege and that honor and that and advanced technology. So we can see that means so, that way we can just see the needle going inside the vein directly. It's pretty cool. I mean, hopefully you get a chance to. Yeah. You see that? That sounds awesome. Ultrasound is ultrasound. Technology that every hospital should have eventually. So the hospitals do have this technology. A lot of them do. I mean, not all of them, but in esthetics, which is, not considered medical. Yeah, they probably don't have this technology, but, there's infrared technology. They might have that, which is where you put, like a red light on over the skin. And they can see a trace of where the veins are, but it still doesn't tell you how deep the vein is in all those things. And the clinician still needs to know how to stick. So, with our with our technologies and our skills and experience, I've been an aunt for over 31 years. I've been starting IV's for 31 years. I've had over 70,000 IV's that I've started in my life. So we are pretty good. You almost guaranteed 99.9% of time, effort. We have never had a client for the whole year. In a few months will be the only thing that we say. Sorry, we couldn't do your your I.V., so you're guaranteed because we have the technologies. Yeah. So that's a cool thing that separates us from everybody else. So definitely. That's super cool. Yeah, I'm sure I'm the always draw on blood or the needle is definitely always, then it's like the if you don't have the, the skin or the, the vein that are of like the vascular, it can be kind of hard. I've seen people come back with multiple like, like 5 or 6 like sticks and pricks. Yeah. No, I mean and that's really why when people are reluctant to go through this route. Right. Because like, like, no, I don't want to be sick. Last time I was at the doctor's office and they stopped me six times. So all of us have the fear of the needle. I mean, for at one point or another, I for sure, have the fear of the needle. And it's blessed now. And I actually also decided to buy a spray, a special sprays called and, and, and so basically, you spray it, you spray that spray sterile and before you stick, so it it's a it calls the skin. So that way you don't feel the stick. And, you know, it's like a little bit like mild anesthesia and not essential. But yeah, it's a cool therapy. It numbs because it kind of cools the skin. Yeah. Yeah. So I make sure whenever I, my nurse is going to stick me up, spray that thing there because I don't want to feel any pain. Yeah, yeah. So I mean, but realistically I have been, needle phobic for the longest time. I started when I was seven years old. I was in Korea, so spring's at the hospital, and I had broken my arm. I thought it was Superman, and I figured that I couldn't fly, so I broke my arm. No, no. And then, so he, they they got me there. And I remember this nurse or medical doctor, whoever has had this big. I mean, to me, I mean, when you're a little kid, seven years old, you can even look this big, right? Sword. It could be this small, but to me, like, it looks like a sword. Yeah. But, yeah. So they, they had to grab me, two, three, five people I don't know and like my. But, and from that point on, needle phobic. Yeah, it's pretty traumatic. I don't remember. That'll do it. Yeah. So, like, I was at a restaurant, just about an hour ago. And the the owners are from Korea, so Springs, and, and and Crystal city. And I was born in Crystal city. So then that flashback came back like, oh, I remember Crystal. I know where. I got something associated with that. Made me who I am. Caruso. Yeah. That's cool. So then I guess, how, how long is the neutral trip been in business and how to kind of start up or how'd you get so so. We have about a year and three months that we started the company, and, you know, the reality is that we are we own another company is called picks by which, vascular infusion consultants. And what we do is an ivy specialist vascular access specialist, and we place Picc line catheters in patients. I don't know if anybody knows what a pick line is, but it's an acronym that stands for peripherally inserted central catheter. This is a catheter that's going to be started in the arm, and it's going to go all the way towards the heart. Now granted this is for Pigs by Vick. Don't confuse this. But I mean you know gotcha gotcha. So we're specialists and those advanced procedures we put, central line catheters in patients. So because I already have that business and establish credibility. If you Google Victor Valdes IV, you're going to find me on Google Picks. My Vic, you're going to find us as one of the top companies in Texas. And even in the United States. With our academy, we have a vascular access academy. We trainers from all over the United States, they come and train here with us in the same building that you guys are at the Barnum Building. 4400 Self-interest Drive. So that's our headquarters? Yeah, headquarters. And, so they come here and they train with us. They pay us a lot of money to to train. So because we already have this background, you know, 30 plus years of an RNN, and I saw that this is an opportunity for us to help, people that are out there that need a better, type of care when it comes to I.V. drips. I want to make sure that our company follows all the standards of practice that exists and making sure that we protect the client 100%. So not only from hand-washing, wearing gloves, using sterile glass when we actually place IVs, we take, we we put attention to detail. So that way you're safe 100%. Even when we mix our vitamins, we have event hood. Which by regulatory, officers that are out there demand that you have that if you're going to be mixing more than to, vitamins. Right. So we have that we bought that it was almost 4000 bucks. But we want to make sure that you feel comfortable that you're going to be well taken care of. Now we're not going to introduce any germs into your venous system. So that's why we wear a mask when we do the mixing of the drips. We were still glass. Before we poke you any other place, they probably forget about changing their gloves. I mean, it's just that they're not trained. It's not their fault. I'm not saying it's their fault is that they don't have the level of training that we have. And because I held two of the highest credentials that exists in infusion therapy, I'm held to those standards. And I got to follow those standards, and I am I follow them religiously and and with or not with honor I because at the end of the day, the most important person there is you, the client, want to make sure that you get your drip and you can go tell others about it. Hey, you know what? The experience was phenomenal. You know, from the top, from the manager, Rosie, to Angie, actually, when she greets you at the door to Rosie, when she, takes your paperwork from me or Valerie or any of the other nurses that we have. Bianca or, Nicole or anybody else that we have that can help us, or myself. You know, that they had an excellent experience. You know, they didn't they didn't have any pain. And we have a lot of testimonials of clients that come in and they they they were the ones that tell you how their experience was. And we're just honored. And we're we're are, customer, focus. I work at McDonald's. When I was, 17 years old. And, customers, it's always going to be right. And that was my mindset. Always treating the customer the way you want to be treated, you know? So McDonald's really instilled a lot of a lot of values in me. Back when I was 17. I became a manager within eight months. Wow. Nice. Because I wanted to be the best. I mean, I was I wanted to be always the best at everything. And even at McDonald's, I actually have a black for the best grill of the year. Yeah. That's awesome. Whip slinging the burgers. Yeah, I used to flip burgers. Awesome. Yes. It's awesome. We're kindred spirits, man. We, spent six years, seven years in the restaurant industry. We actually just left the restaurant. Try to do this full time. Cool. So we have that mentality of, you know, hospitality, customer service, guests comes first. You know, clients always, right? The answer is yes. You know, stuff like that. But we also we're athletes in high school and in college we lifted weights like crazy, kind of integrated that into our personality, that real competitive desire to be the best version of ourselves. And I think I feel that when you're talking to that, you have that kind of blend of, you know, character. And, I think it's so crazy that we ran into each other the way we did just because, you know, we were discussing off camera the acting and the producing and the, you know, all the things that you're interested and invested in that we also care about. It's kind of wild, man. Yeah. The a lot of people, asked me, Victor, how do you have time for all this writer? I mean, because they'll see me on. How do you do it? How do you do it? Right? I mean, the thing is, is, you know, I come from a very humble background. My parents never finished elementary school. Wow. Third grade level elementary and fourth grade level elementary. None of my family from my dad's or my mom's ever finished high school. So, very humbled. My house is almost, almost the size of this room that we're in. Maybe a little bit bigger. That's about it. And no bathroom in the Bel Air and the home. It has to be outside. Yeah, yeah. So I come from that kind of, humbling beginnings and, and then unfortunately, my mom and dad separated when I was nine, and, and so now I'm raised by a single mom until I was, 17, 18. And then when I moved out of Eagle Pass, Texas, where I'm from. And so, I mean, I, I, I have nothing to lose. Like, I really come from, from that environment. And, and I got, I got to give honor to my mom. She passed away almost two years ago, but I never felt I was happy people. I never felt that I. That I was poor because her love covered all that poverty. Right. And but when I went back to my hometown of La Pryor, Texas, and I looked at the house I lived in like, oh my God, I was poor. Like that's when I realized that I was for it. Wait a second. We were poor. We were. Oh no one told me. No wonder we didn't have a car. No. Why do we have to be? You know, I. Know we had no telephone system, no other. We had a father mom side. Like I thought there was. Everybody had a bathroom. I think we got love every day I love I totally agree. And I remember watching TV from the neighbors that walked through the screen like a little screen. The the incredible Hulk, I remember like there was no color TV back then, you know? But I remember this guy converting into The Incredible Hulk. You know, him, but, you know, so when anyway, so you you go through these moments and, and you realize, you know what? This is a life God gave you and you got to take the most, do the most with it, right? And take advantage of it. So we have an opportunity to do business to do this or that. Go for it. Don't be afraid. I, recently, about a month ago, I did a video to help somebody out there right? And I remember coming out of my house, and I saw a little spider shoe right in front of me. So I grab it and killed it. Right. And then, then I got in my car another little spider. I killed it right. And then all of a sudden I get revelation from that that says what do you, what do you fear you're going to kill. Like what. And then I started thinking, sometimes we fear a business. Sometimes we fear going into college. Taking the risks. Sometime we fear opening up a podcast. Yeah, sometimes we fear. And then because. Because we feared, we kill it. And now you have to, you gotta, you gotta go. You got to take fear with you and go with it. I mean, until you until you develop that confidence that you need so that you can say, you know, fear was was only there to challenge me to see if I really wanted it. Right. Yeah. And so so that's why, I mean, I'm not afraid of anything. So that's why 11 years ago, I started my career in acting, doing commercials. I did, several commercials. Herb garden is also. It's on YouTube. I'll show it to you later. That's better. That's awesome. Dude. Yeah. And I did, Sonic commercial. I did direct insurance commercial. American State Bank commercial. There's a, the blood and tissue. I did a blood incision commercial. There was several commercials that I did, and they paid me. That was the good thing, too. That's cool. And, and then, I got blessed by to know a lot of people that are in the film industry here locally. And they allow me to participate in their movies. So I'm not afraid of the camera. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm in it. I'm on. I'm on game once. Yeah. Yeah, once. They tell me the role that I'm going to play sometimes I play the role of, of, we did a movie with strong, strong foundation films. It was called run, and Steve Baldwin was in that movie. And that one, that one I played the role of a guy that was buying, girls there. Was it was, sex trafficking, boy, now, so one of those bad guys is mine. All those girls, you know what I mean? Oh, yeah. So that played that role. You know, like, channel that energy. Yeah. Well, you have to you have to, you know, put yourself in that role. Yeah. How would you be if you were that person? Who is that person. Yeah. Yeah. So that's how you want to be. I mean, I recently played the role of, of a, Jewish man, and I'm all dressed up and I'll show you some pictures later. I'm all dressed up, like, way back in the day. Jesus times. And and and then you have to change your accent. Yeah. And then, so you you, you learn that the Jewish accents are in your room. So instead of saying ham, hamburger, using hamburger, you know, you you have to change your legs in a little bit, so you kind of learn about those things. Yeah. I'm not perfect, guys. I'm not an expert yet on that. But you know, so yeah, I mean I, I enjoy that, I enjoy that. And and like I said earlier off camera, we, we mentioned that in five years I want to be a full time actor. Yeah I have now and I have it in my mind. I have it in my heart, in my mind, and I'm going to do that. I mean, it's just I make. It happen, bro. It's going. To happen. I just I'll be there. We'll be there with you, bro. Let's do that. So like like for instance, today, right? I visit with my, my friend Marine Preciado and Louie. Thank you for for lunch, guys. And then she's like, big. Do you have one of these trucks? Wow. I got no marine. I just it's in here. It's in here. Soon it'll come. Yeah, but I. Got a professor that is going to manifest. It is. It's going to be there. Yeah. So we use our regular cars to go to do these mobile trips. But in the future we'll have this van. Yes. Hundred percent believe it. Hundred percent. Yeah. And that's how you have to live life. You have to live life believing that is there without you even seen it yet. And you act on it as if it's already there. That's what faith is, right? You guys study the Bible is what faith is. What you can't see. Believe what you cannot see unless it's already there. Right. And that's how you. I live my life. My friend, Rosie, last night, I, we had a discussion here, and she says, why are you so happy? Like, I go, I tell her I have ten reasons why to be sad, but I choose to be happy. It's a decision. Yes. So. So I mean, again, it's just the way my mom brought me up, the way I was brought up in my faith and beliefs and my experiences in life that has helped me to be where I'm at right now. That way, I don't have any fear I'm going to become an actor. I want to be the best at everything that I do. Yeah. And that's that's my my motto or model. Yeah. Yeah, I love that. I could yeah, I come from the same cloth. I like the same like both of us do as well. Like we, we come from the same ideology of trying to manifest and trying to like, express your intention to the universe or to God and to to to know before it's even here that it's on the way. That's already here, I guess. Do you have a as a two part question, I guess. How did that come into your matrix? I guess you kind of mentioned a little bit earlier or I mentioned a little bit about it, but like maybe your your upbringing, but were there anyone like anyone specifically that kind of brought you on or turned you into that? Like, philosophy about like manifesting? I was like, more like your parents. Like your mom. I think my mom always instilled in us that we can do whatever we we we, apply yourself to do. Yeah. She taught me that even though, we were in a very, very poverty level. I mean, her salary was $150 a week, but she saved money so that we could have the Nike's that we want it. So we never, dressed. Nothing wrong with it. Like from goodwill or any other. We always address name brands. And I didn't know that mama didn't have any money, but she had to work three, 4 or 5 weeks for her to be able to buy some shoes. Yeah. But, you know, she believed that she could do it. She believed that she could make our dreams a reality. Right. And thank God that before we moved out of the Priory, she saved enough money to build us. Me and my brother Eugene. A little room where a bathroom was there. Finally. Hey, let's. Go get a shower. And everything was there. So it's cool. So, I mean, I think, that has to do a lot with it. But also, you know, I became a Christian when I was 20 years old, and and from that point on, I mean, God has been so good to me and proven to me that he's real, that I have no reason to doubt that he exists. From the moment that I got converted into Christianity, him, myself coming down to me, touching my heart, my life, my body, and knowing that there was nobody else touching me. It was him. His warmth and empower her, coming over me and changing somebody that was on the wrong path. Because unfortunately, when I was a younger kid, I was in in the wrong crowd. Gangs and violence and stealing and doing all that stuff. But I came to hear me change all that. Now I'm in college, now I'm learning piano. Now I'm learning how to sing. Now I'm learning things that I didn't know before. Wow. And and I'm going to just give you a couple of examples of of his faithfulness to me, please. And I was still, going to college, and my car ran out of gas. I didn't have any money. Enough money. Right. You're driving to college? I was driving to college in My Little Pony. Pontiac car. And then the gas is done, and I was on I-10, and I had to go up the hill like, Lord, please just help me go up the hill because, I don't want to push this car. Yeah, no, I'm going to do it. So anyway, so. I'm able to go all the way up, and then I was able to, go to the shoulder area, but I'm on top of the, of the I-10, I mean, Culebra I-10 area. Think about it. You're there. And I'm like, oh, well, how I don't have a gas tank. I'm afraid of walking in this freeway. Yeah, within a minute to two minutes from a distance of maybe 10 to 15 car distance. I don't know why there's a truck stop and there's a man coming my way. And then I was like, okay, I don't know. And then I saw he had a container, right, like a big container. And I said, hey, so. So you ran out of gas to go? Yeah. How do you know? Like, all right. I don't know. I think he said, well, he didn't say this yet. There's no well, here's some gas. And so I put the gas and I had thank you so much. And then once I, I, I finished putting the gas, I turned the container over and I gave it to him. Right. And, and when I saw the container, he had the dove of the Holy Spirit. And he said, their true spirit. And I'm like, oh my God. And he says, I will. Thank you very much, sir, I really appreciate. Well, you're one of ours. You're one of ours. That's what he said. And then he disappeared. Vanished. I mean, that that disappeared. But you just he poof. That'll be enough. That would have been amazing to me. That was an angel for real. But, No, I mean, he, then, you know, just, went his way. I can remember his face. Was like an older gentleman. Younger guy I know who was a man. I know he was kind of dressed like. I don't even remember if he was. I think he was Mexican. He looked Mexican. He could have been something else. But but he was I can't remember his face. If I not, maybe I, I never saw his face. I don't know, but it was kind of weird. Christopher. Yeah, but. Nevertheless, that was a really, moment for me, for my faith to grow. Right. And then the next, within that same month, I was on 35, going before Durango. Way back, it was Durango and Cesar Chavez. My car stopped the radiator or the one of the hoses a radio had busted in. So now, smoke all over the place and I'm stopped there at the at the, at the shoulder area. All the cars are going just drive, zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom. Nobody was stopping. I'm like, oh my God, what am I going to do? Like, I'm stuck by here. I got to go to college. I mean, I got to be there to take an exam and all of it. I mean, all the cars were we're going, going, going. And all of a sudden I see this. Cars slowly started to slow down and and I'm going to paint this picture right here so you can really see it I don't know, I can see it in camera. Not but you know, this is me here. And then as this as the cars are going and then they comes to a complete stop. There's another car right here. When I look to my left, it was my brother Eugene. Oh, wow. That my brother, my only brother was there. Hey, hey, come on, help me do this as well. What are the chances? Yeah. What was he doing? What was he like? He was. Going. I don't know where he was going, but he was going somewhere, right? Yeah, I remember it was like almost 30 years ago. Oh my gosh. And, or more. And then he was able to stop in front of me. And then he had the tools that I needed to fix my car, and I was able to make it on time for, for college. So go figure that out. I mean, and I've had so many of those experiences, and I share one last one with you. And this is going to make your your goosebumps this moment. All right.

I was driving from Austin 2: 32:54

00 in the morning. Already exited 35 on 216 04I was passing. No, Carlitos. I was on the fast lane. It was drizzling, foggy. There was nobody there. I mean, nobody at that time, I guess because it was not a good weather day. And then I was on this fast lane and I felt in my heart something tells me, move on to the slower lane. Right. Move to the right lane. And so I did like, I literally moved to this lane, and not even a minute went by when I saw an 18 Wheeler. Had to get it down and there bad was right on the lane that I was in. In other words, had I not obeyed that feeling of going this way, I would have gone straight into it. Or yeah, or at the very least had to like, try to. Stop. Right? I had no. Choice because there was no visibility. You couldn't see it. Oh, I see what you're saying. Yeah. Like you. Could. See like from here to the wall. That's the visibility that I had. I would have not had enough chance. No time at all to stop. I would just go straight in there at 65 miles only. What's that feeling in your heart you felt. I when I saw that I was like I mean my heart stopped. I'm, I was just died just from that. Yeah. No. Well when you said that something in your heart told you to switch lanes. Was it a voice in your head. Was it an intuition. Was it an intimation. What what happens there. I mean, it was just like like something telling you move, but you. It's not an automobile. Okay. Yeah. It was just something in you anyway. Good. Go to this next lane. Like, it was kind of weird, you know? I mean, I know it's God or the angel or something, right? Yeah, that was telling me. Move because you're going to die. There's some. Yeah, some communicative force. Some something is communicating. Not. Yeah, not the way we're talking. Yeah. No, no information exchange. Yeah. But I mean so anyway, so all that has and so many other experiences, I mean that I have 100 moments that I can share with you guys. And that's why my faith is very strong. So I know that God is alive. I know that God exists. I know that no matter what life brings onto me, that I'm going to be able to be survivor. I mean, Jesus said, in this world you should have tribulation, but be of cheer that I have overcome. So I have that mindset that nothing that can come my way is going to put me down. You know, I whenever I, I feel like I'm going through a depression period, like I'm honest, I start writing mentally or writing on a, on a piece of paper on the computer or phone. What I do have. Okay, can I see? Yeah, I can okay, good. Can I taste? Yeah. Can I chew? Yeah. Can I feel. Yes, can I talk? Yes. Can I hear, yes. Can I walk? Yes. Can I move my hands? Yes. Can I go to the bathroom regularly? Yes. Yeah. By yourself. That's nice. That's nice. Another thing is that you have to understand that we sometimes take advantage. I mean, take, take it for granted. Yeah. The blessings that we already have. Some say we want so much things out there. Your health is the most important thing. I was listening to someone's lungs. Because we do listen to the our client's lungs and make sure everything's good. Blood pressure and all that. And I said, when I listen to his lungs, I said, you know what? People pay thousands of dollars per day to be able to be able to have your lungs and this reality, because people pay thousands of dollars to be in the hospital for them to be filled with oxygen. And I'll have all these machines do all the work for them. You know, this is a reality. It is. And people have heart machines that are pumping their heart. People have, you know, medications that are going through their bodies to make maintain them alive. You know, they and the bills are astronomical, you know, and if they're there for a month or two months. So you got to be grateful for what you have. And so that's my mindset. That's my belief. And you know, so and I'm not ashamed of it I believe 100% everybody has believes out there. But you know that those are my beliefs. Yeah. Thank you for sharing that many because I'm we're we're definitely in the in the same vein because I have I have nothing on top of my head, but I'm sure if I just thought for a little bit, like I could come up with some stories as well, like. I've got one. Now, same story I had, like. I can remember maybe six months ago, I was getting out of work on 410, just past Blanco. So I'm getting on 410 to head towards 281 and it's raining. Not bad enough that I can't see, but it's it's coming down and I get on the access road and I'm coming up the acceleration ramp. And then as I'm merging onto the highway, I need to accelerate to go from like 55 to 70. Right. But I'm also excited. I just got out of work. I'm going to go change, go see my girlfriend. I've got the music going and I hit a pothole while I'm on the acceleration ramp while it's raining and my car bounces and starts to hydroplane. Oh lord. So I'm hydroplaning into the middle lane. Just a little bit at first, but I overcorrect and then I start to hydroplane towards what would be falling off the highway because it's coming up on a hill. So then I whip it back around and it starts sliding the other way, and now I'm coming across 2 or 3 lanes of traffic and I try to get it to stop, and then the end starts going. The, the they call it the death shakes the back of my car. I just go on. Oh my God. And then I go skid out towards the wall one more time. And in my own heart, you know, I've already thought like I was going to die when I was going off the hill. I'm feeling like all of this, you know, I this might be my last moment feeling. And I go against the wall so I feel safe, like, okay, I'm just going to wreck my car. That's the worst thing that's going to. Happen in this crash. I'm not going to. Die, thank God, because the moment I was going to go off that hill for a second and then as I'm about to hit the wall, I just, I just in my own heart, I just say, Christ, be with me like, but I kind of like proclaim it like I it's just like almost like a scream or a yellow plead. And I just go, Christ, be with me. And then my car just stops, right? Like an inch away from the wall just stops all momentum. Everything stops. Wow. And I don't hit the wall. And then I look in the rearview mirror and it's just people had stopped. Every lane of traffic had stopped while my car was just going across like this because they thought I was going to crash and wreck for sure. And then I pulled back on just the highway and drive home. And like a normal day at the office. I tried to call my dad. In answer, I was like, okay, I guess this is at the office. Let's go. That's amazing. But as soon as I, you know, invoked the name of Jesus Christ, you know, I guess maybe my car is it was more slick on the highway and less slick on the shoulder. So maybe my tires caught that less slick part right before I hit the median. But I'm telling you, I asked Jesus to enter and help me and save me. And he did. It was just. Amazing like that, you know? And the thing is that, you know, a lot of things happen right in life. Sometimes we don't understand why they happen, and sometimes we want to fight God on certain things. Like, I remember about a year ago, I was exiting a facility that we actually go in and place IV's at, and I was at they they do have their own light right there. So you can take a left or right, right or actually a left. And I normally take a left while I was there a minute and then two minutes. You know, sometimes we're not that patient. Right. Then three minutes, like all the cars are going this way when the light is still red. Four minutes like, dude, come on. And I would, you know, move my car. Forward, come back. Maybe that center, right. Yeah. You know, so. Like, I convert back and forth and, and no, the license to read five minutes and say, you know what, I'm just going to take a right and then I'm going to go around the left, turn around, and then I'm just going to keep saying, this light is not going to run. Well, little did I know that God had a plan as to why I needed to be there for five minutes. As soon as I got on the freeway, about about a minute into the freeway, I see a multiple car crash. Like it looked like I was on at least ten vehicles. Oh my God, right there on 1604. Some flipped over, some were still trying to get out of the car. I mean, it was dark. It was probably 1130 or something like that. And I'm like, oh my God. I mean, I'm seeing all these people. I ended up just parking and helping people get out of the cars and, you know, see if they need any help. But I thought to myself, you know what? I would have probably been here. I would've my mind that, you know, and so we have to thank God for this moments as well. Sometimes it's not going to go always our way. But there's a reason why 100%. So, you know, that's why we have to you know, I saw a video not long ago and what's really cool video I hope maybe I can share later. It was a TikTok video where this guy is is walking right in. He pushes a guy, right? And the guy's like, when the you're pushing me, right? And then all of a sudden, somebody was messing with a TV up there in the TV falls, right? What the guy was that, right? Yeah. So and there was this guy pushing him out of the way, preventing him from being hit by this smash. But this TV, right? And there's a little kid running, then he, you know, trips him. Poor little kid falls, you know, passes mouth. But then you see a bus right on that street that would have killed him had he not tripped him. So he did a lot of there's a lot of different examples on that. And and it's so sometimes you just have to understand that there is a reason. Right. And there's a purpose. And, and you just have to trust what's happening is trust the journey. Trust, trust that you're going to be able to go through that storm. You know, God is either going to prepare you to go in. The storm will be with you in a storm, or will be getting you out of the storm. Yeah, it's either or. And once you pass the storm, then there's another one. And that's his life. That's it. So might as well get used to it. Might as well stop complaining about it. Might as well just enjoy it if you can. You know, I know it's definitely. It's the key to persevering, to thriving, to experiencing the true joy of life is to, like, stay faithful when you're going through that storm, to still have the spirit of cheer that you're talking about, because it's like to tangibly talk about it when you were sitting at that light for five minutes. If after two minutes you would have gotten impatient and had road rage and just ran the red light when there was a gap in traffic, you're in that accident. But you did what a reasonable person would do. You know, you waited until it was long enough that you shouldn't wait anymore and without any kind of like rage or impatience. This, you know, you went and then you were able to, like, help people and see and it's like, oh my gosh. Yeah. But I think that that's the temptation is to act unreasonable. So while we're going through conflict or, adversity because ultimately that's, you know, that's all that's going on. Like you said, we get through the storm, we praise God, you know, stay faithful. But ultimately there's a a line or a streamline through everything that you're going through in a way where you're just grateful and you're thankful, and there's this guiding force out there that's taking you to the perfect place for you. And I think that without that, I can understand how people can be, like, pessimistic or nihilistic if they don't. Without that piece of the puzzle, life is chaotic and probably overwhelming. Yeah, a lot of unknowns. Exactly right. But you have when you have. That's why. Thank you for coming on the show and testifying and being a witness, because I think that that's the piece of the puzzle that makes everything worth doing, worth living. You know. And, you know, I know I have businesses and yeah, I mean, is my goal to, to eventually have enough money so I can, you know, be financially set. But I am happy right now already without having all that money, I always tell people I'm already rich. I just need the money. Yeah, I'm already wealthy. I'm already wealthy. I just need to, I got plenty. What is it like? That money is coming? Don't worry. But you have to make sure that you're happy now. Even if you're not perfect, like this, you can look at this as half full or half empty. I look at it, you know, I still have water. Yeah, I mean, it's it's half full. I don't want to lie to you. I've spent a lot, a large chunk, let's say a large portion of my youth being, like, kind of upset that I didn't. My life wasn't where I wanted it to be. And there's a lot of anxiety and worry and fear that it'll never be like that. And, you know, I think that you're right. I don't think I should have done that. But I think it's really easy to be young and not maybe you have direction, but you don't have means or access and it just seems like it's too much, you know. But so when you're in that position of being a little bit younger and not knowing how you're going to get there, how do you think you could help someone in that position, you know, maintain that level of, I do have it now. I'm happy now. I don't need the money to feel happy. I think it's important for you to surround yourself with people that have been there, done that. Right. You have to have good mentors, good, you know, counselors or or leaders, role models, you know, because at the end of the day, you're going to become who you surround yourself with. So, I think if you're young and inexperienced, you know, it's okay. You don't have to have all the experience. And don't be afraid of failing. Of course, don't make and don't make critical failures, you know, got, calculate some of those those risk. But if you, if you, if you feel like, like you're impatient, you want things to happen right away, know that it takes years for you to be able to have success. I always tell people, if you're going to start a business, you have to have the the farmer or the agriculture mentality whenever they go and sell their seeds of tomato or whatever it is, they don't expect to have the treat tomorrow. They know exactly what they're doing. So they plant the seed and they put it in the dirt or whatever the, the ground and they fertilize it and put the nutrients water in and just be patient, know that it's going to come if you stay consistent because it's all about staying consistent. It's not whether you have the best looks or talents or not is is if you're consistent, others if you sow the seed and you're consistent in watering it, it's going to come. Yeah, no matter what. Yeah. You start to fall in love with the the cultivating of the seed versus like just thinking about like, oh, I need tomatoes right now. I really want tomatoes. So you can have that. And until you'll be like a, a much worse experience than you could if you were just like, let go of the tomato and start to love the process of taking. Joy, the process and joy that that growth moment, you know, don't be impatient. You know, I want. Someone that was just like, where's the tomato? I want tomatoes, tomatoes. But, when you talk about the time frame, that's really what I wish that I could explain to my younger self is be like, this is these things happen in 5 to 10 years, and then there's no way you should be unhappy for five years. So you got to find some kind of enjoyment in your now, you know, and it sounds like you had that even as a kid, like you were never felt like you were in poverty. You never felt like your situation was going to, you know, influence your mood. Well, I mean, I when I, unfortunately, when I stepped out of church because my mom would take us religiously to church every Sunday, I step out of church and I became agnostic and I didn't believe in God at one point, and I became a gang member and all this other stuff. There was a moment in my life where I felt empty, where I felt like, what is there to life? What is there, what else is there? Right? And so I decided to move to San Antonio from Eagle Pass in search for something different, for something new. Right. And luckily, I was very blessed to have, my friend Rodolfo. Right. Raul, we call him and his, his mother and father, invited me to their home. And then I was able to come here and stay here. And then I started going to college. I had already failed one semester in college, so I said, well, what? What is it going to hurt you? I try one more time, right? So I went on to college and I started remedial remedial courses. Right. And I was able to pass with a B and then the and then I picked up the momentum and I started going good and strong and, and my studies and then all of a sudden never got A's in high school I would always get books in high school. The only that I got in high school was a P, right. You can you can mess that up. Right. Lunch. The lunch after. But, I got A's in college. I was on the Dean's honor roll. You're not a kid like me. And I was actually a tutor of microbiology, chemistry, anatomy, physiology. I mean, somebody that barely passed high school, right? Somebody that most likely would have failed, right? If I always tell people what it was, it was that category of most likely to fail because they always have the most likely to succeed, right? Yeah, yeah. And they put whatever. Right. And then the most likely fell Victor Valdes, that would been me. I was probably last on my class, you know. But it doesn't matter where you are, where you finish in an uncertain season of your life. It doesn't mean that that's the end. Yeah. I mean, to me, I was the first graduate from my my family with a college degree. And so I keep on moving, I keep on going, keep on going. And and I've had multiple businesses and a lot of them have not succeeded and a lot of them have failed. But you have to take it as a learning opportunity. That was that was something that didn't work. It doesn't mean that you you failed. It means to me that that was maybe not for you. Maybe that was not the right time or or maybe there's something better for you. Yes. And so all of my businesses were outside. What I am. And right there were remodeling, flipping houses, you know, selling insurance, selling satellite, selling cell phones, as it were, selling insurance. I was with Primerica Financial Services and selling insurances, and I was top at all was I was network marketing, selling vitamins, selling days and that whatever. Right. Because I had that entrepreneurial spirit and that entrepreneurship, it came from my Uncle Chewy because he he had his own bakery and he made bread every day. And I would go help them. Well, not really help them either. Yeah, but I think. That he would make. And I was 6 to 9 years old and I would see how he would work and ask him one time, how come he doesn't work for a bakery? And he says, well, because I'm making one day what I make the whole week at the bakery. I make it in one day and I'm like, oh, wow. So I want to be an owner when I grow up. Yeah. So that's why it came up, you know? So again, I wanted to open a McDonald's guys. Okay. I wanted to open a McDonald's. Even a franchise. I wanted a franchise, a McDonald's when I was, 17. Rick, the manager back in the in the day, he said, hey, Rick, you're pretty good, man. Emil. You should you would be a good manager, you know? And it's a no. I want to own a McDonald's. I don't want to be a manager. Mr. Rick. Well, it's about $250,000 just for the franchise. So that number stayed in my mind. So when the recruiters of nursing went to high school, says you make 15 bucks an hour as a nurse, I'm like, okay, I can $15. Ouch. Okay, that'll be four years of me working. I might become an hour. In that way, I can save for $250 and open my own franchise at McDonald's. While, you know, that was just a yearly fee. Having the name McDonald's. Oh, like they even calculate the building and all this other stuff, right? The staff, I said, oh. That's, but it was just a dream. Right. And but, I mean, I have never let go of that dream as well. One day I will own a McDonald's. Come on. One day I will honor McDonald's. Let's go. And and and and, so you know, I, I that's in my heart. And I know that even if it's just for one day because I just say I did it. Yeah. Okay, let me let somebody else. There you go. They can flip the burgers. Yeah, yeah. There we. Go. It's one of those child dreams that I have. And it's going to happen in the future. Yes. So never be afraid. Never be afraid of where you're at. Don't look at where you're at right now. You could be down in a basketball game, per se. We're down 15 points and we have three minutes to go. You can still win some long that the time is not expired, meaning as long as you're still on this earth, you're not expired. You still have a chance. The game still goes. Game still on game. So don't think because you're losing by 2030 points that your life is over. Now look at what you can do. Look at, look at all these examples. Look at people that have been successful. What have they done? You know, they nobody has ever had it made. You know, they've always struggled. Some people that are successful, they started when they're their 60s. Look at the colonel. Right. The colonel that. Sanders. Colonel Sanders. Right. The one that did the KFC. Yeah. He was like, what, 65, 66? Whatever he was. Yeah. Someone like that. And he's all over the world. You know, a lot of people, I mean, you look at Oprah, you look at a bunch of other, people that have been successful. They always were. We're told. No, look at Rocky. I mean, so we're just alone, you know, they they laughed at his Project Rocky movie, like. Yeah. The script. Yeah. Like, come on, dude, nobody's going to go watch that movie. And yet he built an empire. He did. It. He did it, you know? And so you can do it, too. Yes, I think I mean, no, no one is is super gifted or talented to be the only ones to be able to have success is do you have the discipline, the love and desire, the hunger to to do it? And I recently was, was, listening to to I know it was a podcast or I do, listen to pep talk. It's an application on your phone. And sometimes, you know, you have to choose something that is above you because the reality is that your why sometimes if it's you used to do it about yourself, you're not might not be that excited because the reality is that we were so excited about our lives, about our bodies and ourselves, we would pay attention to what we watch, to what we listen to, to what we eat. Do we exercise, who we hang around with? But the reality is that we don't pay attention a lot of that times. But if you have a baby, a little baby, you're going to be protecting that baby. You want nothing to bother it or hurt it right? So you want to choose something outside you as your wife, your mom, your parents. Right? Your your your your children. And that gives you that motivation to go sometimes choose something about you, for but but then learn then to love yourself, too. Because if you don't learn to love yourself. And what's the point of building an empire and then you're going to die at 60? It doesn't make sense. So you also have to have that that mindset that you got to take care of yourself as well. The I believe the 100%. I guess it's kind of nice segue, I guess, speaking about taking care of yourself, are you do you also, dabble with your own Neutra drips or what? Would you do them yourself or like, what's your go to drip. So we have, one that is called for your life plus. And the fuel life plus is basically the one that contains all of the vitamins that we have on our menu. And the, fuel life has the vitamin C, B12, B1, two three, five six, mineral blend, amino blend. Also has biotin to make your, your self look younger, right. I'm actually 54 years old, and a lot of people think, wow, you look great. Look pretty good for 54, right? Let's go. And, so but when, I do, take care of my skin as well. I mean, I'm using actually, I'm, I'm buying some Herbalife, skin products and, and, they're definitely, my stuff is like, wow, you look younger. Like they're not. How long has that been? Or how long you been? For? About a month. So it's just consistently. Wow. Yeah. And then, when I do my drip, I also do the, the biotin, and the glue that I iron glue. And again, it'll detoxify your body radicals. You don't get rid of the free radicals. So, and the other thing is that I tell people like you also have to have your heart at peace. That's going to be a very important thing, too, because you could eat all your vitamins and minerals and be all good and exercise. But if you hate people, you have grudges and you have, you know, pain in your heart and stress and all that stuff, I mean, you're going to be unhappy and you're going to show it on your face. Yeah. So you have to be, forgiving people who are going to offend you and be ready to forgive. People are going to hurt you and be ready to forgive. Don't don't take vengeance. Right. Because vengeance is bad. And I think we all have that experience where, like, oh, he did that to me. I'm gonna do this. And we've all gone through that. We've all done it. But then it doesn't give you the peace that you really needed or wanted, you know? So it's better to say, you know what? I forgave him, I forgave her. Or if you say, if you have stress, get excited. Use that stress as few instead of it burning, you use you burn it. Use it as fuel. And that way you can take it to another, to another level. So it's a combination of a lot of things that I think, that we have to, to do. But the fuel life, plus I do it once a month and, it you will feel the difference. Right away, hopefully we can get an opportunity to give you guys that report on it that could be on us. Appreciate that. And we also, you know, come on down and then we'll we'll we'll give you a draft. Mean maybe you want to have your little camera there. Yeah. Well we can do it. We can do it. Right here on your podcast. There we go. That's really cool. Yeah. How long does it take? It takes about 30 minutes. Depends on how much volume you want between, 35 minutes to an hour and 15 minutes total time. Depends on what exactly you want. And so yeah, we have a nice lounge. I mean it has a nice lounge there and, and I did, didn't want to forget that I, we do have a special for your audience. And it's $50 off. All they have to do is go to, our i.v. Neutral trip. Instagram and comment, you know, May 38th, right? Yeah, 38 productions. That's all they got to do. We're going to enter them into a raffle and they'll win, also a free.

And so we will give them a $50, and we also, you know, for those that want to lose weight, we have a bundle. So weight, weight loss bundle is $350. And basically it includes a drip and, and, I believe it's for, like, prominent shots. And those are all to help build, a boost your metabolism to burn fat. And also a B12 shot, I think is about for those that you will get as well. We have already testimonials of people that have been on it for about a month, and they've lost significant weight. And so but again, you have to be consistent. Yeah. So this is about discipline. This is about you getting a new good nutrition in your body. It's called Ivy Newton slim.

I didn't get a chance to actually read all that details, but I know there's a big prize. Yeah, it's like a weight loss challenge. It's a weight loss. Oh, cool.

That's all. We'll send it to you guys so you can promote it on your website. Yeah I'll be telling everybody. The winner. Okay. It's a win win win. Awesome. That's awesome man I guess what sir? Here's what we're we're nearing about an hour now. If I start winding it down. Was there anything on top of your head you wanted to ask or anything you wanted to ask you to talk about or mention? Yeah. Anyone's. Any new promotions besides the Nutri Slim that people should know about with I.V. Nutri Drip? Well, I know the thing that we have right now is the, What? We do have memberships. We have memberships. Oh, cool. And they're listed on our website. And so basically, again, membership is is somebody that said, you know what? I'm going to do this consistently for every month or every two weeks or every week. We have different priority of subgroups. And then they stay consistent. And, and because they're being consistent, we give them a, a price reduction of the regular price. Yeah. For instance, they'll feel like plus would be $225. But in the membership rate it'll be $175, and so forth. Every drip will be discounted significantly. Right. And add ons normally would be,$35. And then with your member it's only $25. So Adam would be like, let's say your drip didn't contain vitamin C. You want to add item C, it'll be just 25 bucks more. Oh, cool. So you can add vitamins into it. And yeah, you can customize your own drip. Yeah. I was I was going through the pamphlet as well, and I saw that they had you had multiple options. Multiple options. Super cool. You I mean, again, we have vitamin C. Vitamin. B-complex. The iron was the most popular. I think the people Life Plus is one of the most popular because that one contains almost everything except biotin and gluten iron. Okay. But they can always just add it in. Yeah, yeah, I think that's the one that people like the most. I think that's what we call the Hangover one. That was I say, yeah, that's like when I think about the IV drip, I remember that's like my first association with it. I had a couple buddies in college are I have or have one on one one. But one of my best friends, he's he's a doctor and he went through medical school and all that stuff. But I think it was him mentioning that he had buddies in his medical medical college that would like, go drink in and then like the next morning they would do a drip to help relieve the hangover. And I was like, oh, that's that's a thing that was like five, ten years ago. Yeah. And there was a gentleman, I forgot his name and. Sorry, there in Vegas and also the other one in, in Florida that they came up with with this idea of just doing it at a location or at their, at your comfort of your home, because a lot of these people that were over drinking, right, or drank, you know, to the point that they felt it the next day, they, they didn't feel well and they were going to the E.R., and the E.R. would then send them a bill for 2 or $3000, and all they got is an Ivy. Yeah, my name is bang, right? For 3000 bucks. Right. And so this guy just said, why, we can we just do that at a clinic setting, right. And charged $400. That's what they were starting charging back in the day. Now I think the price range is about $200 to the $300. Depends on what drip you want, but we have some that are 125 oh, nice on on a membership level. 125 I mean, sorry, $99 on a membership level. Hey, so it's not bad. I mean, it's 100 bucks. I mean, you go to a restaurant, you're going to spend $99 on a steak in and mashed potatoes. And the tip and the tip and everything else, and, you know, and now the tips are not like 10% like before, not like they start at 18%, 22%, 25%. Who knows, 20 will be more expensive in the future than the actual meal. Right? But you know, we we're grateful for the service. I mean, no, no wrong with that. I always tip more than 20%. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think it comes back. Yeah. It comes back around. It comes back. Yeah. For sure. But, so, yeah, I mean, those are the specials that we have. We have a membership. We do also have customer appreciation, month or day every month so people can come and get the regular drip at a very, very discounted rate. And we have, mimosas and hey, some, refreshments and, you know, orders or whatever, appetizers. And they come and eat and, we have a good time, you know, have music there. And, some of them, they'll come and also get it, you know, they'll they'll come and get a drink. They don't have to come get it, get a rep. They can come in fellowship with us a little bit there. And yeah, we have a good time. Network. Network. Yeah. So but we, we love our, our clients and, and definitely we are grateful for every single one of them. We we definitely appreciate them. And and and they come back because they feel like they're part of something important and and they are, we definitely want their well-being. You know, we want to make sure that they make changes in their lives. So that way can they can live longer, right. I think I heard Zig Ziglar, and I'm sorry I missed quoting him. He might have been somebody else, but I heard it on a on a cassette tape way back in the day. I had a cassette tape and I was seeing that. He's like, he said, if you had a pig, that was a movie star. Movie star pig, right? And we've had those, right? We have animals that are movie stars over Lassie, Lassie, whatever. Right. Wilbur. Wilbur, I think, is that the the, the pig. That's the movie with the pig? Yeah, it's Wilbur. Wilbur. How well would you take care of that little animal? Right? I mean, you would feed it the best foods. It would give it nice showers, right? Clothe them correctly, make sure they got the rest, protect them at all different sides and angles. Right. Probably the best mud in the life in the world, right? Yeah. Custom made mud. I don't know, Gucci mud. Gucci mud. There you go. Yeah. But but, you know, he kept on going, right? You would. And they would you take care of it? Yes. If it was making you millions of dollars a year, would you would you take care of it? I go, yeah. And then he goes like, well then how come you're not taking care of yourselves. Yeah. That's like that's not right there. Right. So now where we need to start taking care of ourselves. You want to live longer. Take care of yourself. You got to I. Mean I did have a friend that sent me a video of, some, people that don't take care of themselves. That aren't they? They've long, but but there's 1 in 1,000,000 right there. Probably they smoke and probably they drink all their lives and probably live long. But not everybody is the same genetics 100%. So, I mean, I think if you do the right thing and take care of your mind, soul, body and spirit, I think you'll have a chance of living longer. And if you don't live long, at least you live good for as many years as you had. Yeah, and that's the main thing. It doesn't matter how long you live. That's. Yeah. Did you accomplish your purpose and mission on this earth? That's really what it said. You know, look at Jesus Christ. He's about 33 or 33. That's it. So he needed and he's still impacting lives today forever. So now I definitely thank you guys for the invite. Yes, thank you for joining us. That was a pleasure. That was great. That was one of my favorites. Yeah, that was awesome. One final question before we take off, what does it look like for you in the next 6 to 18 months? 6 to 18 months? What's next for you guys? Where are you headed other than getting a van so that we can go mobile with the actual the neutral trip? I mean. Before the full time acting career takes off. So, yeah, I mean, so with Avenue Trip, you know, we definitely are looking into doing, companies, I mean, like teams, sports teams. Oh, wow. Yeah, the Spurs, the Loboes or whatever, or the Brahmas, whatever the. You know, the Roadrunners, you know, whoever, whatever teams that then are allowed to get trips, we want to be that company and they will be, safe with us because we have the highest standards anybody else has. Yeah. And and there will be multiple six. It will be one stick, you know, and also we're looking at doing more events. There's a lot of tournaments that happen like basketball tournaments, southwest tournaments. We did our southwest tournament, a few months ago. And there was like we did 55 trips. People were down there playing in the hot sun. Or like marathons and stuff like that. That's where we have a lot of different events coming up. We're going to be on the beer, Beer Fest event. Oh come on, there you go. A couple of a couple of weeks. You good to go. And so yeah, we did it. Drink away. We did a little last, last, year. And we actually, got the honor of using, group signals. Bus. We had partnered with them and we were doing their trips, and we were able to borrow their bus, and people were coming into an AC, environment, right from being out in the sun, drinking. I understand that alcohol is a diuretic, and diuretic is, chemical is going to make you pee more than what you should, so it'll be real bad. Was that because you're dehydrated? It's turned off. Some of these people were, like, dying. Like of, like, I need a trip, you know? So we would drip them and man, you would see their faces from like, death to life. Yeah. What a wait. It's amazing. So 30 minutes? Yeah. In less than an hour, they're back on the road. I mean, we didn't recommend for them to go back drinking, but most likely when they went back out there and drank. Around two. Maybe two, maybe. I'm good. I haven't. Drank that. I mean, you tried to cure my heck. Yeah. Yeah. So we actually, we have we do have, events, the event that we had last night, two Saturdays ago, it was, sip and drip. Okay. A separate dripping event. So that one, they would sip little mimosa and get a drip. But, yeah, I mean, if you're if you're, a party animal per se, right? We like to party out there. If you want to do a an Ivy party, we could definitely set up group rate so that way you can, you know, enjoy your your time. Yeah. Bachelor party. Bachelor parties, like, you know, golf course, weddings, whatever. Whatever, guys, they need. We can definitely prepare, give a very, very special rate. And since it's a group rate and that way people can not get sick, you know, because the worst thing you can do is go to a party, go to an event, and then feel horrible the next day. Yeah. You know, that's going to take time from word from your family, from things that you'd like to do. So a drip is can at least maintain, maintain you and get you, to a level where you're not going to get depleted energy wise. Yeah. So the energy, we call it vayner g. And that is, it's copyrighted already, and. I can't steal that one. That one energy, maybe. Banerjee. Through your energy, through your brain. So but again, thank you so much. Awesome, man. Appreciate you guys. I mean, there's. Pleasure to. Have been a pleasure. I got to get back out there and work, but, Yeah, bro, I love that. And, we're going to go actually go through a trip downtown right now. Thanks a lot. Yeah. We have we have different, famous lawyers here in San Antonio that, uses our services, famous, sports celebrities. You know, I. Didn't want to ask, but I don't want, you know, I'm sure you can't list any names, but. Yeah, unfortunately, we care. But but. Yeah.
