Introduction and Casual Banter [00:00]
Sam Parr: You want to know what I am, Pro? A freak show. I love a good freak show. Like, when people start fighting in the middle of the street or there’s a car wreck, you know, I’m stopping. I’m going to ask them to pull that wreck a little closer so I can see. Like, “Hey police, can you film me on the back story what’s going on?” Like, I love this.
Shaan Puri: Go on, fellas. What what we got here?
Sam Parr: We’re live. What’s going on? How are you? What do you think of I guess is this the first time we’ve talked since Dear Dick?
Shaan Puri: Since uh since you moved into a small woman’s bedroom or something. What do you what is this? Where are you?
Sam Parr: I’m visiting family for a month in Brooklyn and I’ve had to rent a place. It’s impossible finding monthly rent like like a like a three-month rental, very hard to find. So we used Airbnb and this is the best I can do.
Shaan Puri: All right. How’s it look? Does it look like Victorian or something?
Sam Parr: Yeah, it looks like um I feel like my sister had this little princess bed growing up, so it reminds me of that. Um what uh what you got today? You got uh I could see you’re eager for something. What do you what do you have?
Joe Rogan’s Vaccine Debate Offer [01:09]
Sam Parr: I’m eager for something. And let me preface this by saying, I’m not a political guy. I’m not really conservative, I’m not really liberal. I’m not pro-vaccine, I’m not anti-vaccine. Like, I’m not I’m not liberal, I’m not conservative. I’m best described as aggressive.
Shaan Puri: [Laughs]
Sam Parr: I’m really I I like not only do I I just don’t care. It’s the thing. But you want to know what I am, Pro? A freak show. I love a good freak show. Like, when people start fighting in the middle of the street or there’s a car wreck, you know, I’m stopping. I’m going to ask them to pull that wreck a little closer so I can see. Like, “Hey police, can you film me on the back story what’s going on?” Like, I love this.
Shaan Puri: Go on, fellas. What what we got here?
Sam Parr: When I yeah, when I flew here, I I flew here, I you know, and I download TV on my YouTube app. It was three episodes of Cops. That’s the type of guy I am.
Shaan Puri: So what’s got your eye? What’s the freak show that’s got your eye?
Sam Parr: So basically, this Joe Rogan Kennedy thing. So here’s the background. Robert F. Kennedy. Uh, you know, he’s he’s he’s Kennedy Jr. I don’t I don’t know what his acronym is. He needs a good like RFK Jr.
Shaan Puri: RFKJ. Is that it?
Sam Parr: Um, so basically this guy, he I actually saw him talk a couple times because I like went through an obsession with the Kennedy family. But he’s Robert Kennedy’s, who’s JFK’s brother, so he’s JFK’s nephew. He’s running for president now and he’s been doing the pod circuit. He went on All-In and then he recently went on Joe Rogan. And I don’t even know all the things that he said because I don’t really care that much. But he said a lot of things that could be categorized as anti-vaccine. So, but and here’s what happened. This is the the cool part. There’s this famous professor and uh kind of famous vaccine guy who’s been tweeting all of his opinions and everything. He tweeted out that he says, “Spotify has stopped even sort of trying to stem Joe Rogan’s vaccine misinformation. It’s really awful. And from all the online attacks I’m I’m receiving after this podcast, it’s just absurd and it’s clear many people believe this nonsense.” Now, here’s where it gets interesting. Joe Rogan is a type of guy who doesn’t normally respond to this type of stuff. He kind of he seems like he’s got thick skin. He doesn’t really get bothered by this. But the same on the same day, he replied and he goes, “Peter, if you claim what RFJ Jr. said is misinformation, I’m offering you $100,000 to the charity of your choice if you’re willing to come onto the pod and debate him on my show with no time limit.” From there, it it snowballed. So now it’s up to $2.6 million of other people. So Bill Ackman put up 150k, Dave Rubin, Rubin 100k, Patrick uh Patrick Bet-David 100k. I think even like uh Andrew Tate is now offering 500k. So now there’s 2.6 Don’t forget Jason Calacanis coming with a hard 10k. Trying to slip that in and say, “I I’m with you. Put me down for a put me down for a buck.”
Sam Parr: Yeah, well, here’s the thing. I was like thinking about this. I’m like, should I hop in on this and just like say some number? Like, it’s going to collect. We’re collecting from these people. No one’s collecting.
Shaan Puri: Yeah, how can I insert this and how can I insert myself into this situation?
Sam Parr: But now it’s $2.6 million to get this guy on the show. And I’m I’m I think he said so far that he’s not going to do it. And I just thought, this is awesome. I love a good freak show. I love like I think that uh we actually have a presidential candidate coming on our pod soon. Um I don’t know if you know this yet, but I I’ve set it up.
Shaan Puri: Who? Actually, don’t tell me. I’d love to be surprised.
Sam Parr: Yeah. I love a good surprise. He’s a guy. He he he uh he started a pharmaceutical company. His name is Vivek and uh he like DM’d me like six or 12 months ago saying he’s going to run for president. And I like laughed at it. I didn’t laugh at it. I just didn’t even respond, which is worse.
Shaan Puri: You know what I’d love to do? Because uh I think that guy’s kind of interesting, but I think what would be more interesting is if we have because he’s kind of let’s say a uh you know, an upstart candidate or whatever. Like he’s like, you know, not the favorite, he’s not the leading guy. Um I would it would be great if we had two of the upstart candidates come on at the same time and so we could debate them because it’s actually kind of boring when you have one candidate come on and uh they just kind of monologue their piece for for for a very long time. Like I’ve seen a bunch of these guys go on podcasts and frankly, it’s kind of boring when that happens. I would love to have like the most pip-squeak debate of all time. It’s like us moderating who don’t know anything about politics with two candidates that only like have half a percent in the polls and we’re just like, it’s this is the showdown. Hundreds of dollars donated to charity.
Sam Parr: What’s the question going to be? Like, “What’s your opinion on car crashes?” Like, we don’t know anything. Like, do you like websites?
Shaan Puri: Ending of Breaking Bad. Good or a little underwhelming?
Sam Parr: Yeah. Like, call your wife right now. Call your wife right now. I want to talk to her. I want to see what she’s got to say about you.
Shaan Puri: Dude, like we don’t know anything. But last time, what was the Asian guy who ran last year who like said he loved math? Andrew Yang?
Sam Parr: Yeah, dude. Andrew I think he just did he run and say, “I love math?” I mean, that’s just like I think that was like his slogan was like, “Make math great again.” I thought that’s what it was. But he he messaged me also like a year before Well, he messaged me before like one of our events, Hustle Con. He’s like, “Hey, I’m going to run for president. Can I come talk?” And I was like, “He wanted you to be VP?”
Shaan Puri: I was like, “Dude, you’re going to make me look stupid by some crazy guy saying he’s going to run for president. You’re like that guy in the street who like holds up a sign, you know, that says like aliens are coming. I can’t associate with that.” And then turns out he kind of made a good run. And so this time, I was like, “I have to take this at least a little seriously.” And so that’s why we have to have Vivek on. But yeah, what are we going to have two guys and be like, uh, arms wrestling or dot gov? Yeah.
Shaan Puri: Just ask them about their workout routines. Because we’re going to compare you on things that we value in other men. So, you know, like here’s a situation. Person breaks into your house. We just see how they react.
The Future of Trade Shows [07:33]
Sam Parr: And the reason I’m bringing this up is I’m not one of these guys that says like, “Oh, like I think Jason Calacanis said this. He’s like, podcasts are going to shape the next presidential election.” I’m not even shape. He said the next president will be will will be decided off of podcasts or something ridiculous like that. Let me let me let me look up By the way, do we have a little beef with Jason Calacanis? He’s kind of sliding into our mentions here. He’s he’s coming in a little hot, I got to say. I like Jason Calacanis, but uh if if he’d like some internet beef, I would happily be the recipient of some internet beef.
Shaan Puri: Yeah, you’re the chef boyardee of internet beef. Let’s do this. Great A grass-fed internet beef. I mean, sign me up.
Sam Parr: I like Jason, too. I’ve only hung out with him a couple times, and he’s always he’s always been nice to me, but he’s been nice to me in like a rude uncle type of way where it’s like pat you on the head and give you a compliment. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He’s like, “Oh, that podcast you have, it’s really great. I think it’s precious.” You know what I mean? Like he’s like, “It’s like, yeah, Jason said he loved my startup, but then he said it was cute at the end.” Yeah. What’s up with that? Um, yeah, so but if if for the sake of entertainment, I’m happy to I’m happy to to call him out. Well, I want to do two things. So first, uh on your birthday, I tweeted out, um, you know, just a little thing and then he he he came into I I tweeted out a thing. I was like, “Yeah, happy birthday to and I I I made up a bunch of nicknames. I was like, “The vanilla gorilla, the long arm of the law, you know, whatever, the 2% milk himself, Sam Parr.” And I was like, you know, gave gave you a little shout out like that. Just freestyling. And um he he replies with the the the like, “Hmm, think face,” as if because I think I I was like, “What the hell is this? What does this mean?” And then somebody they were like, “Oh, I think he thinks you stole his stick from All-In where he he gave them nicknames like uh the Sultan of Science, the Queen of Quinoa, whatever, right?” And uh Is that a Jason Calacanis trademark? Yeah, yeah. I was like, “Oh, oh, you think you started nicknames?” Can I nickname like the like turning left? Like, is that a thing? Like can we can we trademark blue? Yeah, ridiculous. Um so yeah, I do think he pats us on the head and thinks he’s great. But then uh there was another another hilarious Jason Calacanis moment, I got to say from Twitter. So um so I just replied and I said, uh I said, “All in, billionaires talking about billionaire shit, MFM, millionaires talking about millionaire shit.” And uh you know, I just like that’s a that’s a description. So people liked it and then But someone someone said, “Except Jason.” Yeah, they go, “Oh, you they go, “All in, three billionaires and their friend Jason.” I was like, “Okay, that’s a good burn.” And then he came back and said, you know, a a bottom five lamest thing you could say. He goes, “More like one billionaire and three centi-millionaires.” Whatever. Just roll with the punches, man. Roll with the punches. You never want to say centi-millionaires. That’s like That’s like if I had to insult someone with $100 million, I would call them a centi-millionaire. Yeah, like 511 and a half. Yeah, exactly. That’s got big 511 energy. Uh that’s that’s so good. I do want to challenge, by the way, I want to challenge the All-In uh podcast to um to a poker game, by the way. I will play all of the All-In podcast. I’ll play them all heads up in a game of poker. So I will play them heads up. I’ll put up $100,000 and uh and if they beat if if two if two out of the four beat me, uh they get that they get the 100 100 grand. But if I beat three or four out of the four, I get 100 grand from them. They each they only have to put up 25k each and I’ll play them heads up. We’ll live stream the whole thing. You really think you’d win? We’ll live stream the whole thing and I will go in order from centi-millionaire to billionaire. So I’ll play Jason first. Make quick work of Jason and then I’ll go Friedberg, Sachs, and then Chamath at the end because I think they think Chamath is the best player uh out of them. So Are you good? I mean, I I I I I know nothing about poker. Are you good? I’m better than them. That’s all they need to know. I mean, they named their pod after it. I mean, they they’re basing their a little bit of their their brand on that. My nickname is the Nuts. And if you know about poker, you know what that means. So, you know, we we have our own nicknames for ourselves. Um all right, let’s get back to I don’t know why I got on this Jason Calacanis. So, we could wrap up we could wrap up this little part, but I’m not one to say like I’m not going to make an absolute statement like Jason did, but I do think that there is like we are going to see that this this little freak show that’s going on right now is awesome for RFK. Yeah, beneficial to him for sure. And I think I for sure. And I think we’ll see a little bit more of podcasting have a and and here’s why I think that. This is inside baseball. A lot of people don’t realize this, but so the hustle now is read by let’s say three and a half to 4 million people. I have 250,000 followers on Twitter. I think Yeah, it’s precious. Yeah, it’s precious. Sean, you had uh 250,000. I’ve got 250,000 followers on Twitter. You have 350,000. The pod, let’s just say has 100,000 listeners per episode. The pod consistently outpunches in terms of engagement all of those things, I would say. Would you agree with that? In terms of like uh people who actually like, trust and um will take action on things. Uh yes. Yeah, 100%. So I do think that for people who don’t realize or who aren’t in the game, they don’t realize that podcasts have significantly more influence over people than I think any other medium that I’ve used uh or that I’ve access to. I don’t I don’t have a big YouTube Yeah, I think YouTube would do the same, but um but yeah, podcasts definitely do. I I agree with you. I think podcasts are a bit of a a little bit of a sleeper still, which is, you know, depending on on on who you are, but I I I think people are are shocked at how effective podcasts are at swaying opinion. Um I want to point out a couple other things. So some people are saying, “Oh, Joe Rogan, you’re just doing this self-serving thing. You’re just trying to have this this freak show, this debate to like pump your ratings.” I would say not true at all. Um look at somebody’s actions, not their words. Joe turned down having Trump on his podcast. He turned down having uh other presidential candidates on his podcast that he thought would just kind of be promotional or not a good conversation or bring unwanted attention um to the pod. Like, saying no to Trump is saying no to ratings, especially in the last election when he was uh or or or when he was kind of on the rise. And um he just said, “You know, I’d rather not. I’d rather not do that. I’m not sure I’m the right person to moderate that debate.” And um you know, I don’t think that they would be truthful. I think they would talk talking points, you know, if I had Hillary or Biden on. Um so I’m not sure that that that would be a good thing. So I think you can’t really say that Joe’s just doing this for ratings. I think Joe actually I think Joe actually thinks RFK, I think he actually sides with RFK and says, “All right, if you’re going to say this guy’s full of shit, come explain why and let him let him argue with you and let’s see where where it lands.” Uh that’s the first thing. The second thing is, have you seen this guy, this the scientist? I saw what he looks like. He looks like I would think a like I mean, he just looks like a a a nerd, right? Like an older nerd. Yeah, he looks like a guy like cosplaying Neil deGrasse Tyson. So he um so check out this clip. Do you take care of your immune system in other ways? Do you take probiotics? Are you cautious about your diet? I’m not as cautious about my diet as I should be. I’m a junk food alcoholic. That seems ridiculous for someone who works with health. Yeah. Yeah. Sometimes, man, I just don’t get it right. Mm. So you Living large, we call it. Like that mouth pleasure so much you willing to sacrifice a little bit. I am. Yeah, I you know, I you know, I I can I have to concede that’s the case. Do you take vitamins? I don’t take vitamins. Really? Yeah, I don’t take Wow. I think they What about essential fatty acids, which are great for your brain, fish oil, all these different things that are fantastic for your brain. I’m not going to argue I’m not going to argue with you. You got you got you got it hand you got you got it over me. You got a listen, but it would you would have a much better argument, don’t you think? You’re making my wife stay here. If you’re taking care of yourself 100% instead of just concentrating. But you still need but you still need your vaccines. I’m sure you do, but vaccines aren’t going to prevent cancer. No, that’s true. We got to get you healthy, buddy. Yeah. Can’t be pushing only chemicals in injectable forms to facilitate health. Fair enough. Yeah. Not chemicals, they’re vaccines. Oh, I’m sorry. What’s in them? What? I mean, it’s some sort of chemical now. No, they’re antigens, right? They’re they’re they’re macromolecules. What’s the fluid? What’s the liquid stuff? Uh, typically, it would be saline or, you know, salt water and So it’s him on Rogan. That’s it’s the same scientist, I believe, on Rogan and um in the past. Peter, his name is Peter. Peter Hotez, Sir Hotez. Um so he’s he’s talking and he’s talking about vaccines and um he says something about he says something about he’s very pro-vaccine. Uh so he’s like says something vaccines and Joe’s like, “Yeah, but you know, like not everybody feels good like putting chemicals in their body.” He’s like, “Oh, it’s not chemicals. It’s uh these are antigens. These are, you know, cells.” And he’s like, “Okay, well, you know what I mean, like just putting something else in your body, like, you know, are you taking care of the main things?” And he asks Peter, he goes, he goes, “Do you do you do other things uh to be healthy?” Cuz like Peter’s kind of like, you know, he’s circular in shape. And so uh and he’s like, “Well, you know, I I do I dabble in junk food.” And Joe just starts pressing him. And I’ve never really seen Joe do this, but I think he wanted to make a point. He’s like, “How how much are we talking? Like once in a while or like every day?” He’s like, “No, not every day.” Like, he’s like, “So how often?” And he’s like, “I don’t know, like every other day.” And he’s like, “Uh what do you what do you have?” He’s like, “Well, potato chips or you know, candy or whatever.” And he’s like, “Do you exercise?” And he’s like, he basically this guy over like a two-minute period is like, “Yeah, I eat like shit and I don’t exercise.” Um and Joe’s like, “Isn’t that crazy? Like shouldn’t you like you know better than that, right? Like you’re saying people are crazy for not taking vaccines or pushing against them, but like you are not doing the basics of human health. Like you’re not exercising, you’re not eating in a nutritious way. Like, don’t you see that that’s a problem?” He’s like, “Yeah, I should, you know, no one’s perfect.” Uh and he’s like, he’s like, “Do you really just love that mouth pleasure so much that you he like goes in on him a little bit, which I’ve never seen Joe do. He’s like, generally like quite like amenable, like, you know, he’s not really doesn’t really do that. But I think for him, it’s like a, you know, he plants a flag around like, you got to, he’s like, “It’s non-negotiable.” Like, you know, he’s like, “I know, for me, I travel somewhere, the first thing I do is I go to the gym. It’s just a non-negotiable. It’s just something I do.” And then the other guy goes, “Yeah, I do that too.” And I was like, “No, I don’t think you do that too.” You could just tell from looking on his face. He’s like, “Yeah, but it’s different maybe the way I’m doing it and the way you’re doing it because look at what’s happening here.” Dude, whenever I uh when I go and pick which doctors I’m going to use, uh like when I move to a new city or something, I definitely their body matters to me. Right. Right. Yeah, you don’t want the bald barber. Um Yeah, like I I went to this one doctor and she had this beautiful vein up her bicep and I was like I’m in. I’m in, Vainy. Uh I was in. No more Vainy. Yeah. Dude, uh that’s that’s hilarious. I also think that uh there’s some other strange stuff about this guy like uh his daughter has autism and he wrote a book called like Rachel’s Vaccines didn’t cause Rachel’s autism or something like that, which I just thought was like a really I don’t know, I can’t imagine as a parent doing that. That sounds like just very aggressive. Yeah. Um so anyway, it’s just I I would say and it’s funny to see the the debate here because some people are like, there’s on both sides. There’s the Rogan, you know, macho bro, which is basically like, “Yeah, bro, showdown. Let’s go. But you know, you and me in the behind the school at 3:00 p.m. They want to see a fight happen.” And they really just want to see him like get punked. Uh it’s kind of like one energy. And then the other energy is like, this is uh stupid. This is not what scientists like trying to bully a scientist into debating when that’s not his skill. Like this other guy is a he’s a politician. He’s going to have talking points written for him, all the stuff. Well, he’s not a politician. He’s not a he’s a wannabe politician. Oh, he’s well, he’s yeah, I guess trying to be currently. Um but but they’re basically like this one guy’s like, you know, uh this is what he’s doing. He’s going around talking about the stuff. He’s been doing that. He’s been giving talks on the stuff for for a long time and this guy’s, you know, trying to just be a scientist. He didn’t sign up to be uh like kind of a debater of the stuff. Um so that’s like the other point of view and they’re sort of like anti-bro in that way of like, you can’t like uh stop trying to make this a fight. That’s like anti-science to do that. This one guy who I really like, his name’s Yishan Wong. He used to be he’s like from the the uh from the tech world and he um he worked at Facebook early on. He was the CEO of Reddit. Oh, he has a he has a new company where he’s trying to plant trees, right? Yeah, exactly. Uh he’s trying to change the climate change climate by by planting trees. Uh I just want to read you what he said. I thought he had a uh I thought he had a good point. So he goes, “Every science and tech person who’s currently on the bandwagon calling for the vaccine doctor to go on Rogan and debate should be ashamed of themselves. Um if you care about the truth or science, like a a kind of a podcast debate is probably the worst thing to advocate for.” Usually, that argument goes something like this: “If you’re the vax doc and you’re so sure you’re right, you should be willing to go on and defend it. Otherwise, you lose credibility.” That sounds like a good statement, but he’s like, “Uh it’s an example of what Plato, the philosopher would call uh rhetoric’s oral spell.” In simple terms, what he’s explaining is like there’s a difference between what is actually the truth and what can be said in a very persuasive way. And you shouldn’t want a medium where it’s all about who can be most persuasive. You should want to, if you want a debate to the truth, you should do it in a way where your charisma, your persuasiveness, your loudness, uh your on-the-spot thinking is deprioritized compared to just like making your most logical argument and then letting somebody take time and refute it. And he’s basically like I call it the Malcolm Gladwell effect, you know, like he he writes so well and even though it’s theories, I’m like, “Oh, it must be true.” Right. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. You when you hear somebody who’s so eloquent, you can you can conflate how nice it sounds and how persuasive it sounds for how true the actual argument is. And the vice versa. Somebody could be so dry and boring that even though they’re saying something that’s really uh on point, the message is not received by the by the market. So he basically says uh he’s like, “You know, if you really wanted to do this, this is what you would do.” Uh so I I guess just to finish the Plato thing, it’s basically um uh oratory, so just going and verbally, you know, giving like a speech or a presentation, um is the medium where you’re most likely to have people fall under a great orator’s spells. And he’s like, “People are more like sheep than you than you want to think, and a great orator can get people to do crazy things.” If you’ve ever seen Hitler give a speech or uh, you know, Mussolini give a speech, you can see how a great orator for and you’ve seen it in the good direction and the bad direction, how a great orator can move people to do something and believe something that may not they may not have actually believed otherwise. Uh so anyways, his his point was like, “If you really want to do this, they should do it through long-form boring writing. One person should write down their argument with uh sources cited, give the other person time to respond to each line each paragraph of that argument, and then you’ll have basically both sides of the argument written out. Uh nobody wants to do this because this is boring. And um if you actually wanted the truth though, that would be the way.” And I thought that that was really good and it reminded me of something that was in companies that I had also seen from from uh Yishan’s blog, which was he was like, “Yeah, in companies the same thing happens. Um the person in a meeting who is tall, charismatic, uh willing to put their opinions forward, basically they are 100% confident in their opinions. Yeah, exactly. Self-familiar. No, I’m not holding up a mirror right now. Um but basically that person is going to like disproportionately sway what actually happens and um and actually there’s another method. So he basically it’s called the Delphi method. And the Delphi method was basically this method where um you bring up a topic, uh everybody sort of presents, everybody gets the same set of facts, then you write down your initial thoughts and statements and then they’re circulated. Everybody reads everybody’s initial thoughts and statements anonymously. You don’t know who said this, so you can’t just like, “Oh, the CEO thinks this, okay, I guess it’s right.” Uh you just judge it by the merits of the argument anonymously. Everybody reads it and then you can go revise your statement based on new information that you got and you update it and you pass it around again until you get to, you know, a sort of like you know, what what what people believe is the strongest strongest meritocratic um argument after several rounds. How how do you spell that? It’s called the what method? Delphi, D E L P H I. And there’s a couple benefits of this. First, anonymous, so it’s not just like the the the the highest ranking official gets their way. Second is it’s time delay. So you don’t reward time like for a great decision, you don’t need to think of the answer like right on the spot. Like if it takes you five minutes to think of something, five minutes is nothing, but in a meeting, five minutes is everything. You can’t just sit there quietly thinking and formulating an idea for for 15 minutes or an hour. Um the meeting’s over by then. And so the argument is moved on by then. So this time delay and anonymity is really important. And I love this and um I’ll tell you I shared this with uh with the CEO at Twitch and I was like, “I think we should do this.” He was like, “Dude, I love this. This actually would solve one of our biggest problems I think we have in our meetings, which is people think that my opinion is the answer is shouldn’t be. I’m actually usually the least informed on the topic because I’m the furthest away from the data. Um and secondly, like we reward the loudest the loudest mouth and not maybe the most thoughtful person who who could have an answer. And it’s really hard in a in a normal meeting setting to get that person to speak. Um then I’ll give you one more data point. Josh Elman, who’s a an awesome dude, friend of the pod, he’s a he’s a VC plus like now he works at Apple, but he was basically like the growth guy at Twitter, the growth guy at LinkedIn, the growth guy at Facebook. Like he like led growth at like three or four of Robin Hood Robin Hood he invested in Discord. He led growth at like four of the biggest consumer hits there ever been. He for fun the other you know, while he’s kind of like, you know, just kind of goofing off now, he for fun built this Slack app that does the same thing. He’s like, “Yo, Slack is kind of rewards the same thing. Like whoever’s online the most gets to like say the thing in Slack. Um and he he created this app that was like a time delay. So you anybody could prompt a question and then everybody has a certain amount of time. Like in the question it’ll say, “You have, you know, we’ll we’ll read the answers in 4 hours.” So anybody could write their answer within the 4-hour period. What’s it called? Oh, Thinking Time is the name of it. Um so just Google Josh Elman Thinking Time. It’s a Slack app and thinkingtime.org is the is the URL. And basically, it just gave you time and then you could say, “All right, here’s what I think. I think X.” And then it tells you all the answers will be released together in 30 minutes. And then in 30 minutes, it posts everybody’s answers at the same time to prevent groupthink. And I just love this because I think these little like nuances actually can really change the way any group of people interact. Um because I know I’m guilty of it all the time. I’m I’m loud, I’m persuasive, but that doesn’t mean I’m smart. It doesn’t mean I’m right. And uh I like actively look for methods or tools to counteract that. This is um A, awesome. I’m going to use these things. I like that. B, in real time, I just want to call out what just happened. This is called a good partnership where I bring kind of shit and Sean just kind of polishes that shit and and we somehow get something amazing. This is this is this is called chemistry, my friend. This is this is how it’s done. That was that was beautiful. I didn’t know you knew all that that stuff and you tied it around perfectly. I’m actually was asking those questions and I’m writing notes. I’m actually going to go use this thing. Thinking time. Yeah. Uh and the Delphi method. That’s awesome. Um I’ve got a few more things, but you want to go to Yeah, we’ll do a quick one first. Uh I got a simple business opportunity for people. So, I don’t know if you know this dude, but uh so Google Analytics, which is the most popular analytics tool on the planet is is just changed. Basically shutting down. They’re not saying it’s shutting down. They’re like, “It’s changing for the worse.” Like, I would love to see Actually, I want to film a commercial on behalf of all marketers out there of the Google fake Google a fake Google Analytics commercial where it’s like, “But what if we made it worse in every way? What if we rethought it and removed all the key functionality and replaced it with vague with vague analytics. Wouldn’t that be better than precise analytics? It’s like And so people are wondering why. I think the reason why is because of all the privacy stuff, the cookie stuff. So basically, the same thing that happened to Facebook where Apple changed their rules, the iOS 14 uh rules and all of a sudden Facebook ad performance went down and it was like, “Yo, geniuses over there. Why why is why is performance down and why don’t you have attribution? Like, why don’t we know if I spent $1,000 on this ad, did I make 900, 1,200? What what did I make? Why can’t you just tell me that? Uh you know, I put your pixel on my website, you know, you’re Facebook, you’re the biggest geniuses in the world. It’s impossible. And the reason why is because now legally, they’re not allowed to like use this type of tracking that they used before where it’s not a technical problem, it’s a regulation problem. Meaning the site that serves the ads can’t also track the users on third-party websites. And this is why portfolio company Triple Whale exploded. Uh one of my investments exploded in popularity and is now like, you know, on track to be this huge winner because let’s say you owned an e-commerce store and you were using Facebook and you’re spending like we spend hundreds of thousands on Facebook ads every month, um we we have to know is you know, how how our Facebook ads are performing. And when Facebook’s ability to track that got cut off due to regulation, people were like, “What’s another solution?” And Triple Whale was like, “Hey, we have this thing called Triple Whale Pixel. We can tell you more accurately than Facebook how your ads are doing.” And so everybody signed up. Triple Whale takes off, does amazing. And so I think the same thing happened to Google where Google had to because of the privacy reasons be like, “All right, you know what? We Yeah, there’s going to be a ballpark. Yeah, because of the ads business, we got to just you know, lick a finger and and and guess, you know, roughly you got them out this much uh traffic, conversion, etc. And so um not great. So they’re upgrading to this thing called GA4. It’s called uh Google Analytics Lack of Daysical. That’s like the new update. Yeah. They’re like That’s the update. Yeah, Google Analytics after six beers and it needs a nap. Um Yeah. And every marketer I know hates this thing. And also, nobody knows how to migrate from Google Analytics to GA4. It’s like a there’s like every time you log into Google Analytics, there’s literally like a ticking countdown like it’s, you know, season 4 of 24. It’s like, “Dude, dude, your like your analytics are about to explode. You need to go learn this new tool that by the way, sucks and you need to migrate everything over because in 14 days, there’s no more Google Analytics for you.” And um so me and a bunch of other people are like, “How do you do this?” And we try to migrate over, didn’t we’re like, “Is this is this working? I don’t know if this is working out of the box.” And I think right now there’s a very simple business opportunity for somebody to go be the GA4 export expert, put out a ton of free content and be like, “I will handle your migration for you.” And you just cold email every business owner that you can think of it maybe in the e-commerce space, that’s where I would start. But if not e-commerce, SAS businesses, whatever, and be like, “Hey, do you want help migrating over to GA4? I’ll do the whole thing for you. It’s done for you, turnkey. Just pay me uh you know, $1,500 and uh and I’ll do it.” I think you could I think somebody can make a million dollars in the next six months just migrating people over to GA4 and auditing their GA4 to be like, “Hey, is this setup correctly?” Um just as a one-person service business or a two-person service business. I agree. I need it. I need it. We’ve been trying to like figure this out. I don’t even know how to set up reports. I was out of the game for about a year and a half and then I came back and everything done changed. I I don’t know how to do it. Dude, you you know you know what else has changed is um pronouns and Google Analytics. What the hell just happened? I take two years off and business doesn’t work the same way anymore. There’s no office. Dude, everything has changed. Another thing that’s changed is newsletters. Like people are asking me like, “What do we do for this newsletter?” And I’m like, “Dude, I don’t know. It’s been two years and in that amount of time, everything has changed.” Like when we started the Hustle, it was us morning brewing the skim. And I always I don’t like saying it this way because it sounds like it’s a bigger deal than it is because it’s not, but we kind of like pioneered this very small industry and now people take it seriously and there’s all these like agencies around it and they tell me what they’re doing and I’m like, “I don’t I don’t get any of that. I don’t understand how any of this works.” It it just things have changed very quickly. Yeah, yeah. Um I was going to say something, but I decided to to to um take the high road on on something. I was going to call someone out on Twitter, but I just decided not to do it. I think you’ll know who it is, but uh yeah, I’ll avoid it. This data is wrong every freaking time. Have you heard of Hubspot? Hubspot is a CRM platform where everything is fully integrated. Whoa, I can see the client’s whole history, calls, support tickets, emails, and here’s a task from three days ago I totally missed. Hubspot, grow better. Um okay, I got another thing for you. What? How would you like to hear about a business deal that uh involves one of the goats, uh that involves I like goats. billions of dollars, that involves a messy divorce. Let me tell you the story about Michael Jordan selling uh his team right now, the Charlotte Hornets. That was related to a divorce? In a roundabout way. So the story actually so so a lot of people are looking at the story right now and they’re like, Michael Jordan bought this team for I think $275 million and it’s about to sell for $2 billion. The the the whole thing? Did he sell the whole thing? Or buy the whole thing? I’m the majority owner. I don’t think anybody I don’t think any of the NBA owners own 100%, but I think he’s the majority owner. So he um the valuation of the team at the time was 275 million and he bought it and now it’s going to sell for $2 billion. MJ strikes again. The goat the goat strikes again. The guy’s going to make, you know, more money doing this than he ever made playing and more money on this probably than he made through his Nike deal as well. So, you know, found a new found a new way to like, you know, double his wealth. But what’s interesting is actually who owned the Hornets before MJ did. Uh so I don’t know if you know, uh do do you know the story? Do you know who the owner was? It’s this guy Bob Johnson. Does that sound familiar? Most generic name there is. I know I know eight Bob Johnsons. Well, do you know the one that was the richest black man in America at a at a given time? Well, okay, we’re narrowing it down. No, but maybe He’s the guy who started BET. So Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I listened to his uh his wife was uh his wife was like also the the head honcho, I think, right? Him and his wife kind of ran it. Maybe, I’m not sure about that. So he starts um BET with like a he has $15,000 of his own money. He puts that in. He gets $500,000 from a guy named John Malone. And he’s like, “Look, there’s no cable network. There’s no channel that’s caters towards black Americans.” And he’s like, “You know, we can do this. We can build this up.” And so they had music, obviously. So it’s basically like the black MTV. So they had music, they had award shows, culture, whatever. BET’s a winner. And BET wins. He sells BET to Viacom for $3 billion, which is just an incredible outcome, right? So he Did he own the whole thing? Yeah, they were the I don’t know what John Malone got. I don’t know if it was a loan or equity, but like, yeah, he owned the majority owner. So he um the valuation of the team at the time was 275 million and he bought it and now it’s going to sell for $2 billion. MJ strikes again. The goat the goat strikes again.
