What is good, good people? You are now listening to another episode of Since You Last Spoke with Danny Foxworth. I am your humble narrator, Danny Foxworth, and once again we're joined by an extremely special guest. This good brother, right here, man, he's family, sneakerhead, jack of all trades, car fanatic. Man, we're gonna get into all of that. So without further ado, we got the good brother B Trail, aka Bryan Dingle in the building. Brian, what's going on with you, man?
SPEAKER_01Good, man. I'm here. We are here, man. Right on. Glad to be here.
SPEAKER_00Glad to be here. Glad to have you on, man. There was a long time coming, but I'm glad we were finally, glad we were finally able to link up. Yeah, man, yeah, man.
SPEAKER_01And this is uh excellent, man. This uh the business podcast is a blessing. I'm glad to be here.
SPEAKER_00Yes, sir. So um, let's let's get right down to the nuts and bolts, man. This the sneaker fanaticism. What uh what was it that made you initially just become addicted to sneakers?
SPEAKER_01I'm gonna say my brother, you know what I'm saying? Coming up, uh, he had way more shoes than I did. You know what I'm saying? I wasn't really a sneakerhead at the time. I was mainly into video games and stuff like that growing up, but I did see the shoes he had. I would also, as I was getting older, I would sneak some of his shoes in and play the scoop. You know what I'm saying? I'm about to say, did he ever catch you? Oh yeah, he has. I'm gonna get me shoes, you know what I'm saying, and just start off one by one.
SPEAKER_00I just it just kept growing. So, what was the first shoes you got that really just got you locked in to a collection of sneakers?
SPEAKER_01Uh the first shoe that I I received that got me locked in was one of my all-time favorite shoes. And you would think it would have been Jordan's the first shoe, but it was the penny holidays. No kidding. Those were the first ones that I actually received. And and I don't have any penny holidays right now. Really? But I have to get that in my collection. I don't have any penny holidays. Okay. Had it then, don't know what happened to that shoe. Like I said, I I don't know. It got lost somewhere in the midst.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_01But I uh that's the shoe that I I I think I'm gonna have to pick up. But that was one of my first shoes that I received.
SPEAKER_00Okay, and they're supposed to re-release those fairly soon, aren't they?
SPEAKER_01Yes, they're gonna re release those and I will be getting them. I will be getting it. Whatever release they get, I will be getting them, because that like I said, that was my favorite shoe. One of my favorite shoes of all time. Yeah. Um my favorite collection, of course, is the Jordans, my favorite collection. But uh, but yeah, when they come out, I will be getting those.
SPEAKER_00So what were your first pair of Jordans that you put out?
SPEAKER_01Ah, the first pair of Jordans were the ones. It was the first pair. Which colorway? Red and black. Ah, the classics. It's the classic. You know, everybody I didn't bring that with me, but that's I do have at the house. Um, but yeah, I when I received those, you couldn't tell me I was a Jordan.
SPEAKER_00I felt like going to the court, you know. So I know your brother worked at Foot Locker, so uh eventually you followed in his footsteps.
SPEAKER_01Yes, I followed in his footsteps. I worked at Foot Locker too, because I was like, you know what? Maybe that's how he got all his shoes and working at Foot Locker. Which he did get a lot of shoes during that time. When he was working at Foot Locker, he was in the Foot Locker a lot longer than me. I only worked at Foot Locker for nine months. Okay. I actually did it backwards. I sold cars first, then I went to selling shoes. Okay, well we'll we'll get into that too. Yeah. But yeah, Foot Locker uh nine months taught me a lot about customers when it comes to shoes and their kids and them. So but uh yeah, um, but then it also taught me a lot about the the quality of shoes as they first come in. Yeah. You know, uh as as you know when when when I was working it, you know, and just being in the back of Foot Lock and seeing all the shoes, you know, I'm like, wow, you know, but it's it's uh overwhelming, but then when customers come in and you gotta find a shoe they don't have, and they'll be like, oh, you know, you feel bad because you can't get the shoe this size, but you know, you know, it it happens, you know.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I can relate. I mean, full disclosure, I wear a size 14, and it's extremely hard to find shoes in store in my size. And uh so yeah, more often than not, I gotta go online to um to purchase.
SPEAKER_01Online on connection. I have connections with shoes. So online I uh connections are any shoe that you want, you know. I got you, bro.
SPEAKER_00Man, I will definitely keep that in mind. Yeah, yeah. So just rough estimate. How many pairs of shoes do you think you own? Uh say between two to three. Whoo, two to three hundred?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, but that's and that's just me estimate. Yeah, I really don't know the exact number. I haven't been through counting. I know one time I was counting on shoes and I know I was well over 180. Wow. And I still have more to go. And um, and you actually where I put, I got shoes in bins, I got shoes on bed, I got shoes uh top of the closet, I got shoes stacked up in boxes, and and and you would think that I got, nah, I'm telling you what I have. My brother, he has rats along the wall. He's he's lost shoes and recollecting them. Wow. And I say he lost shoes, he has shoes that was in boxes and stuff back in the day, and the shoes actually he had to give a lot of what threw a lot away because they had mold on their shoes. Oh, yeah. Because it's been sitting for so long. And that's one thing when you have a lot of shoes. You gotta also know how to take care of them in a weight. Versus just keeping them in the shoebox? Yes, I believe in if you put your shoes in air ventilation, I haven't the shoes. They got the clear the clear containers you can get off of Amazon or whatever. And and have the shoes have some type of ventilation, shoes from that because if it's sitting in the box, it's staying in the boxes, and you're not wearing them, shoes that I haven't uh have more that's still in the boxes that that I know, you know, me personally, I have to get some more of those containers. I the first time I bought containers, my daughters like them so much that I gave it to them. So how's that? Okay, well, I gotta stop eating some containers.
SPEAKER_00I didn't I didn't realize that's a uh like one of the go-to methods in maintaining your shoes.
SPEAKER_01You see a lot of even celebrities when they got their shoes out, you see they got these big walls, but you notice they got the shoes inside of those uh containers. Containers, yeah. They sit inside, even wide open, as long as they got some ventilation or whatever, you know what I'm saying? But you see some some celebrities they got built in their houses and they might be building some houses where they got little cubbies for to put your shoes in. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, some boxes that look cool, cool boxes, you know what I'm saying, and you'll see some in the in in a little bit. But uh, but some if you got any chance to get them out of the box and put them in little cubbies or whatever, so they can get some Venation, you shoes last longer.
SPEAKER_00Okay, and you mentioned your daughters, so are they did they get bit by the Snickerbug too? Yeah, they're sure.
SPEAKER_01They actually my daughter's birthday is coming up, and she wants to want me to take her to get Jordan's. I'm like, she haven't even watched a Jordan a day in her life, but she wants Jordan's, so that's a priority of mine. Her birthday's in two days, and I'll be getting her her pair of Jordans for her birthday. What's her favorite pair? Her favorite pair? Yeah. She just wants Jordan's. Okay. She got, I think the favorite pair. I believe her favorite pair is gonna be what uh my favorite pair of Jordan's is, because she's every time I bring up, you know, we're gonna talk about the fours, she loves. So I think that's gonna be her favorite pair because she seems every time she sees my Jordan Fools, she's like, oh daddy, I want Jordan's. So I believe, but right now she didn't love Jordans.
SPEAKER_00Okay. Yeah. So you also were talking about before you got into uh working at Foot Locker that you were a car salesman, which I was not privy to. Yeah, yes.
SPEAKER_01And so uh, how did you get into that? So uh fresh out of college, not knowing exactly what you want to do. You know what you you know what you're your your um your degree in, you know what I'm saying? You know you're out of school, you gotta like, okay, I gotta find a job. So at that time, uh north side me song was was hiring. So I didn't man you took it back.
SPEAKER_00You see me right there on Rivers.
SPEAKER_01On Rivers Avenue, yeah. And Mr. Jimmy, I don't know, he w I think he went to Berkeley or was a coach or something. I don't know. So he he knew my mom's or whatever, and um you're like, yeah, they they hired me on. Knew nothing about selling cars. Knew nothing about selling cars, but once one one thing they tell you is that the car sells itself. Okay. And that's one thing I learned. Well, even with a lot of things that you that you you purchase, they sell itself once you actually feel uh feel like ownership. And that's what I did. You know what I'm saying? When it came down to customers, you know, I never really pushed on a customer, you know what I'm saying. I asked me, hey, let's take a ride in this car. Yeah. I take them and draw a ride in the car, and I let them touch everything, all the features of the car, touch the window, turn on the radio. What it does is make you feel ownership, you know what I'm saying? Once you're driving that car, you know, they get some customers come in like, I don't want to buy a car. I'm not, I'm not here to buy. I'm not here to pressure you to buy anything. I just want you to come take a drive. Before you know it, the customers sit in the office thinking about some numbers. And just little things that you say to them. And like I learned, and which I learned from from actually being a salesman, little things that you you you say to a customer, uh or whoever, just to just uh uh have them, you know, thinking, hey, if I can, if the numbers are right, if the numbers are right, would you purchase this car today? Of course, if the numbers are right, anybody that purchases your car, numbers are right, yeah. The numbers are compared to my number that one, of course. And then you it's a caller, you the middle man, you know what I'm saying? So you get their number, then you can take that number and take it to the manager, he gets his number, then you show them both numbers, then you can come to a median.
SPEAKER_00Okay.
SPEAKER_01If if if I can get you close to this price here, would you buy? Yes, I will. Show the manager. He said, if you get close to this price here, the manager already got a figure in his head about what he wants the car to sell for.
SPEAKER_02Okay.
SPEAKER_01So even so it's like a back and forth tug of wall thing. You're just in the middle, you just you're just a salesman. And once you would come to a meeting, then bam, the customer buys the price. One thing I did to make a customer feel ownership whenever they're buying a car, over there by north side and east side, and there's a big old mirror on the side of the wall of a business, a building. And I would take them by that building and tell them to look to the left. And I said, Now look at you. Now, don't you look good in that car? And they'd be like, you know what, I do look kind of good in the car. What it does, it shows them how to look, because no one, when we drive our cars, I'm saying, we don't really see ourselves in the cars. Other people get that that that'd be able to see you drive that car. You don't get a chance to see it. Yeah. So that gives the customer a chance to look at themselves and also look at the car that they're driving and say, look, and they're like, I do look good in this car. Yeah. But yeah, that's my story of selling cars. So yeah, it was it was good. I did it for nine I did that for nine months as well. So I think I actually sold shoes a little bit longer. I might sold shoes about a year, I believe.
SPEAKER_00Okay, and you selling shoes and then becoming, you know, fascinated with sneakers and then becoming a collector of that. I'm assuming that whenever you sold cars, like that scratched your itch, that like you developed a uh like it scratched your itch for being around cars and then you started to develop a love for cars. Yes, it did.
SPEAKER_01It sh it gave me that itch, that urge, because whenever you're a salesman, you get a chance to drive all type of cars. That's true. And and it that and and I was able to even take certain cars at home and all and and test it out and you know what I'm saying. So that gave me uh, yeah, I I I that made me love cars even more. Because now I could drive anything. I mean, I could drive anything now. You know what I'm saying? So yeah, I became fascinated with cars and not just any car, man. I'm I'm fascinated with exotic cars. Yeah. But just, you know, I'm a fan of fan of fan of cars, engineer, and just vehicles, man.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, because it it makes me think of when I was, I had an after-school job in high school. I was watching cars at Burdett Chrysler Dodge. Okay, wow, that's way that's back then. Yeah. Shout out to Wayne Burdett. Yeah. They had a Dodge Viper in the showroom. Oh my god. Yeah, and I got to drive, I can't believe I got to drive it, albeit it was only to the gas station and back to fill it up. But I was like, man, like I'm in 11th grade driving a Dodge Viper. Like, how many 11th graders can say they drove a Dodge Viper?
SPEAKER_01Bro, and I I think I've seen that Viper, but I think you're right, bro. That did have a Viper. That's one of my favorite cars, bro. Now that I'm thinking about the Viper is one of my favorite cars, man. Lucky man.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, but man, I didn't get to I didn't get to actually drive it home like you did, though. So what was a car that you drove home and you were like, man, I gotta get one of these to put in the garage. You know what's funny?
SPEAKER_01The car that I drove home from the car dealership was not even a car that you would think. It was a Honda Civic. Really? At the North Side Nissan, but it was a Honda Civic, but it was, it was, they had a special, was a special need. It had a kit on it and everything. Somebody traded in for a Nissan for like a maxima or whatever to trade the car in. Yeah. And the car was just fit for me at the time. You know what I'm saying? I was straight out of college and like this car was it, it was a stick shift. And I wouldn't, you know what I'm saying? And I've just started, well, before I went to college, I just learned how to drive a stick shift. And I think I drove the stick uh the Hyundai, my mom had a Hyundai, a Hyundai, and I and it was a stick shift. And I I taught, well she she taught me, and then I just became familiarized with it. And I actually fell in love with a stick shift. You know what I'm saying? I was like, I never I from one point I didn't know how to drive it. Then when I drove it, I fell in love with it.
SPEAKER_00You couldn't get enough of it.
SPEAKER_01I won the stick shift, you know what I'm saying? So so when I when I actually drove that car home, and I told mom, say, I'm gonna get this car. She's like, I don't think you want to keep a stick shift. You need to get something more adorable. That stick ship might, you know what I'm saying? You might it might weigh out on you. I was like, really? I said, man, I just fell in love. And I just fell in love with that car because I was driving it, and then and then they was gonna give me a discount for it and everything, the car did the ship and everything. But so I actually, and that once again, I felt like ownership. I done took it home. I done drove it home, you know, and I played with everything and driving it. I felt like it was mine, and the car looked good. It was a Honda Civic, yeah, but it looked good. It was decked down. Whoever had the car, I guess it was a show car. Okay. And they did some work too, and then what they I mean, it was lovely. But it wasn't uh a car that I would that should have been for me at the time. I needed something more reliable.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Because the car did have some mileage on it. Okay. I wasn't worrying about mileage, I just wanted the car. You know what I'm saying? That's one thing you got. Sometimes you gotta think about thinking about the mileage on the car. That's that's key. I know some cars are your favorite cars, but if it got high mileage on it, depending on what it is, a truck, different. But a car with high mileage and you want to keep it and you want something durable, think before you buy it.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. Duly noted. Yeah. And um also I noticed you have some model cars here, and those model cars are basically like a a manifestation tool, so to speak. So These uh, yeah, um, yeah, long with the long story.
SPEAKER_01Short, yeah, these uh this particular car right here uh was packed up, and this is exactly exactly how my car looks. But before I bought my car, I I put this car boxed up in the closet. And I set it in the closet. Why? Because when I walk in that closet, my clothes is in that closet. And I gotta change clothes, right? I gotta get clothes. So when I go in that closet, the first thing I see is this red car boxed up. And what that does is that during that day, anytime when I walk in that closet, it helps me know, let me know that I want this car. So I gotta keep pushing my goals to get this car. And my goal was that I was not gonna take this car out of that box. Even though I want the car, I wasn't gonna take it out of that box until I actually bought the car. So nine months later, once I pre-ordered this car, and I and every day I walked back to that that that thing, knowing my goal. I kept working towards it, working towards it. Nine months later, I got the car to come pick the car up. Actually, on my mom's birthday, no kid. We was at Murder Beach, and we had to come all the way to Charles, Sitavanna Highway to uh to pick my car up. And it was gonna I let her and my brother drive the car. It was the birth, her birthday to drive the car. We went out to eat in the car. I drove his Porsche. He had a Porsche. He has a Porsche, I drove his Porsche, and he drove this car. Um but um But once I got the car, received the car from the dealership and everything, once I got there on the paperwork and all that, then I took it out of the box. And ever since I took the car, the box, this car has been riding with me. Why this car rides with me? Because like I said before, you don't see what you're driving. Other people see what you're driving.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_01So I look at that car to solve when I'm inside the car to notice, I'm driving this. But other people get the chance to see how how great the car looks. So with that being said, anybody, as anything that you need in life and you want a goal, as a goal that you have, manifest it. Put it somewhere, like in the closet. Somewhere you're gonna be s notice that you're going to every day, put it there and and work towards it. And don't give up because once you give up, it's done. Once you stop, it's done. Anything, anytime you have something that you want to do, and you think, oh man, this is too hard, I can't do it. Once you stop working towards that goal, it stops because you stop. In order for it to continue, in order for you to get to that destiny, you gotta keep going and keep working towards it. And if you don't stop, you will get it. Don't give up.
SPEAKER_00So do you have another car that you got in the closet right now? Uh yes.
SPEAKER_01I do have another car in the closet right now. And and like I said, keep pushing towards a goal. The car I have in my my my uh closet right now is a Lamborghini. Okay. A black Lamborghini. And and the funny thing, I've I've I just probably like a month ago, met up with a guy who has a Lamborghini that he doesn't didn't want to sell. Does not want to sell. And but he's but I told him that, hey. I was sat in the car with him. And I said, This is my car. I he was like, Really? He's like, I said, yeah, this is mine. He wants to, he gave he gave me a deal and said, when I'm ready for the car, it's it'll be sitting for me. So now what I'm saying is that this all came up. I have a Lamagunity sitting in my closet. I went and test drove a car lame union about a month ago. The guy doesn't want to sell it, but he was setting to me. That's still a manifestation. You know what I'm saying? So in the closet, got a connection with a Lame Union. It only has 30,000 miles on it. And you gave me a a great offer. So still, I cannot I'm not gonna open that car until I have that car. And if not that that car, something towards it. Because I'm that's my goal, right? That I'm pushing towards. You know? So yeah, that was an excellent. I mean, that was it was night and day. I mean, I love this car here, but boy, when I sat down at Lemini home, I was different. That was a V10. That thing I heard that car coming from like down, like we downtown, I could have had a car come from Guew Street scene, like I mean that that it just it's just so powerful. And this car is too anybody sitting in this car, but one thing it with being inside that car was not like, you know, it it felt like home because I've always driving something similar to it, you know. So that was like when I heard it coming, and when I said into it, I was like, wow, it's f it felt there because I'm pushing towards that goal.
SPEAKER_00And seeing you got the model car and then being in the passenger seat, and then eventually the goal is to be in the driver's seat. And you are, brother, you are well on your way, man. Man, that's that's you really are.
SPEAKER_01That's going. We all can be that. Everybody can, you know what I'm saying? Don't give up on your dreams, passion. You know what I mean? Even even here being on this podcast with you, it's well, this is this is something your passion, you know what I'm saying? And you're well on your way, you know, and uh I'm thankful for being here to help you with your goal.
SPEAKER_00Absolutely, man. And uh while we're we're gonna about we're about to wrap it up in a little bit, but you also brought some of your uh some of your more notable sneaker finds. Yes, I'm gonna be able to do that. And uh man, we're gonna crack open some flashes.
SPEAKER_01Man, one of the highlights. So matter of fact, yeah, here's the first.
SPEAKER_00And just and whenever you open, with these uh sneaker on whenever you open the box, just like tell a story behind the sneaker.
SPEAKER_01These are one of my these are Travis Scott's cactus jack. These are here to the back of it's a cactus jack. These are when I saw these shoes, I was like, I have to have them. I saw what it was worth, and I was like, oh yeah, at least if I get my hands on this. If I get my hands on this right here, I get my hands on any shoe. Yeah. This is one of the first ones. Not one of the most expensive ones I got, but this is definitely up there. And you see it says Travis Scott right there on the tongue. Travis Scott. You can see. So I like this color. You know, I was like, and you can see I really won the shoe maybe one time. Okay. Yeah, I see you.
SPEAKER_00I mean you keep it well maintained.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, you still got the uh yeah, I always keep all my shoes, I try to keep this in there where it keeps the the the form of the shoe. You know, just just in my opinion. I just I was keeping it, and these are the ones, the ones that that that I that I ordered. And um, you can see, man, I feel it's it's yeah. Yeah, this joker is fancy. I I love the colorway. The colorway. And like I say, I mean when you wear it, people know exactly what it is. Yeah. You know, like I said, I only wear it a few times. I I forgot, man. To be honest, I forgot I had these shoes.
SPEAKER_00I forgot I had them. Then we'll get to the next shoe, which is also a Nike sneaker. Oh yeah, this for him, matter of fact.

Of the three two to three hundred shoes I have, uh these uh this is very, very rare of a shoe. This is uh this is Louis Vuitton's Air Force One. And it comes with a case, and this case is very unique. Um, because it's hard to find this case. It is hard to find this case, and you can look online and see what it is whenever you get the case. So when I actually found the guy who actually had this case with the shoe, I was like, let me have it. I need that, I need that shoe. So so yeah, I'm gonna take the shoe out, and it comes with a handle, you know what I'm saying?
