Wine Wednesday With Wyan - 5-28-2018

A casual, livestream-style video (Wine Wednesday) hosted by Ryan Daniel Moran with guest Dr. Clement Juan. They discuss food and wine (La Crema pinot noir, lamb, sous-vide), run an informal mustard taste-test, take live calls/questions about entrepreneurship, product launches, marketing and politics (Trump), and perform spontaneous ‘drunk dial’ calls. Tone is conversational, humorous, and provocative.
Chapters
Will Matt be joining us?
I wish. You know, I feel like there should be a warning in this video that plenty of animals were harmed in the making of Plenty. Lots of animals were tortured. It's terrible. I guess we should add debating eating animals to the description of. Of this live video.
What do we eat? What are we eating and drinking tonight? Welcome to Wine Wednesday with Wyan and Quentin.
What are we eating and drinking tonight, Dr. Clem?
Balsamic Brussels spread.
Did you just say balsamic? Yes. Balsamic vinegar. Yeah, Balsamic.
And lamb. That has not been cooked for long enough.
You think it's not been cooked long enough?
No. It should be like, if I had done this right, I would have started yesterday, but I only started.
So first. First of all, you're underselling it because. Because you didn't even mention the red wine. Tonight. Tonight. Okay, so we're talking about bachelor cooking. First of all, tonight, while we talk about business and review a very, very important product in my life.
We'Re going on a product review that is going to rock your world. Oh, I Gotta look at YouTube. Can't forget about YouTube. You are not gonna want to miss this product review. YouTube. Oh, and you know what? YouTube can't see the. The animals that we are destroying over here. How do you adjust this? You just push the thing. That's what she said. How do you like. There we go. How do you like Clement's hand? YouTube. All right, so we're reviewing. You are not gonna want to miss this product review. It's gonna be nuts. It's gonna be life changing. It's gonna be off the chain. Now, tonight, we're. We're drinking La Crema. Highly underrated. Highly underrated wine. All right, so this is. This is a Sonoma pinot noir. Look, 95 of people don't know about wine. And if you know this much, it'll impress people. For example, I'm going to impress, like, six, seven people on this. Ready?
This is how you choose wine. You look. You're like all.
I'm looking to see how many people are actually watching.
Are you aroused right now? You're like, oh, we're gonna talk about wine. All right, so listen, let me give you a quick tour. First choose date. First grape. Second location, third. All right, that's how. That's. So this is 2015. Three years is enough to do damage. La Crema is highly underrated.
Are we gonna toast?
Sure. We already did, but we'll do it again. All right, now, doctor. Dr. Clement, you're kind of world famous for the way that you cook as a bachelor, why don't you give the Internet a quick lowdown on how you make. On how you make. All right. If you follow me on Instagram, you've seen some pretty epic meals that Clement Juan has made, so I need. Why don't you reveal your secrets to the freaking Internet?
Sous vide, which many people.
What, were you speaking French again?
Cooking under vacuum in water.
It's this ginormous machine that sits on the kitchen counter.
Yep.
And it, what, slow cooks it for, like, it's a 12 and a half days.
Yeah. I call it slow cooker on steroids. I actually did this today, and I misread the instructions since I pretty much only cooked by recipe.
Because. Yeah, I'm not.
Oh, it is a little undercooked. Tough, but it's delicious. Yes.
I think 24 hours to that, and.
It would have been. Oh, my goodness. I think lamb is, like, the easiest to impress meal as a bachelor. Like, it's really. People are always impressed when you make lamb, and there's several really easy ways to make it that impressed people. For example, big secret here. First recipe in.
In Tim Ferriss's four Hour body for our body, four Hour chef is lamb Osobo. How do you say it, world?
Is it like. Is that the one?
You speak like seven languages. The lamb. Oh, so boat also Baku. Yeah, that's it.
Hey, Deacon.
So anyway, it's freaking delicious. So.
Tonight we're reviewing the product that's gonna rock Facebook's world. It's gonna rock YouTube's world.
But, Dr. Clement, are you ready for. Are you ready for this product review?
Yes.
Now listen, Clement and I are both really high. Not. No, not that kind of high. Get your mind out of the gutter. What's wrong with you? We are both really high on food brands. All right? So those of you who follow me, slash us for physical product or business advice. For some reason.
I am fascinated by markets with high valuations. Health and wellness is really high valuations, particularly food. For example, if you didn't pay attention to the acquisition that Kellogg's made in RX Bar for the page. 600, Dr. Clement. Was it $600? Is that what they bought RX Bar for?
I'm pretty sure that was a little. That's under price.
Are you really. Are you really gonna Google.
It was 600 something. Was it $600?
It can't possibly be 600 million.
Was it? See, even Dr. Clement is shocked at the number. And we've had. We've talked about this. What was in. What was the number? How much was Rxbar bought for spirit fingers? Everybody.
Where are your spirit fingers? Hashtag spirit fingers. Put it in the comments. Clement. Dr. Clement. While everybody's doing spirit fingers, what was the amount? $600 million. $600 million, ladies and gentlemen, for a bar that had revenues of what, a hundred million? Under a hundred million dollars. Food brands have valuations that are out of this world.
So tonight we're reviewing the most delicious food brand in the world. The life changer of all things. Oh, no. I'm okay.
I'm okay. Everyone, we're gonna make it. Are you ready for this.
Tonight? Tonight we're reviewing.
Whole Foods must.
It's gonna be freaking insane. It's gonna be nuts. Oh, Clement is getting ready for a mess. That's what's going on here. He is getting ready for this to get nasty. He's getting ready for this to get angry. He's getting ready for this to be messy. He's bringing out the paper towels.
Tyler Atwell just joined by. He's gonna be crashing with this. Cool. I'm excited to have Tyler out while crashing with us.
See you soon, Tyler. When is he coming?
What? He's coming tomorrow. He was going to come tonight, but I told him that might throw a wrench. Might throw a wrench into wine. Wine Wednesday.
All right, Be a guest.
We. We will. We will have to start doing guests on wine Wednesdays. All right.
Clement, on a scale of 1 to 10. Actually, let me give you an easier question. Okay?
Yashu says that you look Canadian. Who? Yashu says that you look Canadian. I think it's a little racist.
Because specifically, I think you look Asian.
Like a. Like a. Like a. Like a. A deep, aborigin Asian.
That's. That's possible.
Okay, so on a scale of nine and a half to ten, how much do you love mustard as a human being?
By the way, while he's thinking, we got. We got the Indians game going on in the background. If you don't love the Indians, you suck.
I don't know that I normally like mustard.
Tonight's a big day, everybody, because tonight's the day that we ch. And everything changes.
Everything changes for Dr. Clement. All right, so what we have here is first, we have.
We're trying to be culturally diverse, everyone. So we start with.
Dion Mustard. Dion Mustard from Whole Foods. Special thanks to John Mackey for providing this Whole Foods mustard for everyone. The founder of Whole Foods. He provides mustard to children all over the United States. Number two, We've got German mustard. German. What the hell is German mustard? How is that different from American mustard? I don't know. Okay, and number three, we've got spicy Korean. How do you say that in. How do you say that?
I'll guess it's gochujang.
How do you say. What's that Korean for I am not Korean? Oh, gotta fooled me. All right, so Gucci Chang mustard. Now, how do you think that Gucci Chang mustard.
Is relevant in these tense times with. With North Korea right now? Asian, apparently.
They should serve it at these meetings.
Oh, man, that would be great. How do you not have a good meeting between Kim Jong Un and Donald Trump if they're serving goju Jung mustard with lamb, hopefully. All right, so here's what we're going to do first.
Should we do this? No, I can't do it blind, because I know I've already tried the mustards. Dr. Clement, do you think this will be work better on the brussels or the. Or the lamb shank?
Say lamb because you've already got balsamic vinegar in there. Brussels sprouts.
Okay. All right, so let's do it on the lamb. We're testing it on the meat tonight, ladies and gentlemen. By the way, Anna would like to know, how do you drink wine correctly? Be careful with the wibe because the blanket become tent and is getting up from your feet and you get a cold. Emoji, emoji, emoji, emoji, emoji, emoji, emoji.
Obviously. Obviously. Way to keep it concise, everybody. All right, so first, I think we need to try Korean first, German second, French third. What do you say about this, Dr. Clement?
Sounds good.
All right, so we're gonna go. We're gonna rate these on a scale of 1 to 10. We're gonna go for flavor, manliness.
And.
We need a third category. Post in the comments. What's the third category? The third category for. For mustard, we're gonna go on taste. Manliness. And.
Waiting for it. Waiting for it. It's gonna come from YouTube. It's gonna come from YouTube. Hey, Amanda Roy.
Price.
Sit. Not sexist. Price. Price. It's Whole foods mustard. It's like two bucks. Gayness was one of the suggestions.
I wish there was someone here who could help us with that category. What would it be? Let's see a bite. Mouth gas. Mouthgasmness. All right, that's an excellent suggestion. So here we go. We're gonna go on the meat. We're gonna. We should actually probably show the real color this is what mustard in Korea looks like, everybody. It's got this. This golden. This golden color to it. Looks a little bit like pea snow.
Hopefully it tastes better than it looks.
And we're gonna go in for this Korean Kachu Johnny mustard straight from North Korea. Donald Trump is going to be having this with Kim Jong Un later.
All right. Oh, Clement's going all out. He's. He's ahead of the game here. All right, so we're gonna get on here.
I'm a little embarrassed of how much of a difficult time I'm having cutting.
My lamb, as I said.
There we go. All right, are you ready? Are you ready for this? All right, let's try this Korean. We're doing the Korean mustard first as a tribute to your heritage.
Racist.
Pretty good. What do you think, Dr. Clement? We gotta rate this on taste, first. One to ten.
It just tastes like normal. Like mustard.
Oh, this is. This is a much stronger bite than regular mustard. This is not yellow mustard. This has a. This has a spiciness to it. Yeah, a spiciness.
I like the spiciness. It's also a little bit sweet, which I don't like in a mustard. So I am going to give this. I'm going to give this mustard seven for taste. What do you give it, Dr. Clem?
I'll go six. All right, now I gotta rate it on manliness.
I'll go first. I. I'm not.
What's the scale? Like 0 to 10?
1 to 10?
Like zeros?
10 is. Yeah, yeah. It's like.
Like, what's the scale here?
Sorry, I was thrown by a very odd YouTube comment. Not that I have ever seen a weird YouTube comment before.
A comment from a gay man, which I've never gotten, ever.
Anyway.
That threw me. Mustard. Manly. The manliness, the way that we rate this. Yes. A zero. It's like, only. Only eat that kind of mustard. Right? That would. That would be like. That would be like Gray Poupon.
Okay.
Which is great. Gray Poupon is actually only like a. Is probably a 4 or a 5 on the. On the manliness scale because the flavor is so good. On Gray Poupon. It's just. It's just for packaging reasons. It's kind of. It's kind of a. It's kind of a mustard.
Okay.
All right. You see where I'm going on this, right?
I don't actually. I'm not.
I.
Nowhere near an expert on mustard.
So.
Yeah, we'll say sure.
Sure. What? That's not a ranking.
Oh, my ranking. I'LL go with. Because it's. That spice probably does it in for a lot of guys. So I'll probably go.
Six.
Six. All right. I'm actually gonna give Guju Jang a 10 for manliness, first of all, because if you can show up with. On a date with Guju Jang mustard, you're gonna look like a freaking man. Also, the extra spice is nice, so I'm giving it a full 10. Also.
Because Kim Jong Un is just a man. Masculine man.
All around.
I. Yeah, that's. That's one descriptor, I suppose.
All right. Oh, the la crema got me. The la crema got me. All right, Dr. Clement, we gotta go in for round two. We're gonna go in for the Dijon mustard. You ready? Yep.
Dijon mustard.
Okay.
It's very yellow. Yeah, that one. No, it's smooth or. Very smooth. There we go. Okay.
Sweet Lord Jesus. There's a fire.
Case. I'm giving it a nine. There's. This is my jam, so it's a lot more sour. More sour?
Yeah.
Okay. Interesting. That wasn't the word I was thinking of. Go on.
And I would say that it's.
Well, more vinegary.
Okay, that. That's. That's a good descriptor. All right. What would you give it on a scale 110 for taste?
I actually like the last one better, so I'm going to, like, mark this down to four.
I'm giving a four. All right. I gave it a nine. Dr. Clem gives it a four. What do you give it in terms of manliness?
There is nothing strong about this.
Wow.
Wow.
Okay.
I will say, well, not nothing. It's vinegary. So we'll go three.
Oh, man. I give it a seven for manliness because it has a really, really strong kick. Not just a spice, but like a. Like a. Like a burn your throat kind of kick, which I. Which I rather enjoy.
Right. What about for mouthgasmness?
Yeah, we'll skip that one. All right, cool. So let's go with the German mustard.
German mustard. Now, Dr. Clement, what makes mustard qualify as German?
Was it made in Germany?
I don't know. You're the cultured one. This is marked as Austin, Texas.
Because it's Whole Foods. Thank you, John Mackey.
Maybe it was a German.
Okay.
Can you. Can you identify a German by looking at them?
I'm gonna say no.
What if they're in a red coat?
Doesn't that make them British?
The red coats are coming anyway.
Let's have some German mustard dive in here. Dr. Clement, give us your review.
By the way. Everybody say hi to Dr. Clement. Dr. Clement is. This is. This is the smart one in the group. The reason he's here is because everything smart that I do comes from Matt Davis, Clement, Juan Mark, Jenny, or Travis Sago. Let's get all the credit for republishing it all. So Say hello to Dr. Clement. All right. Oh, by the way, you're a doctor of nothing. I didn't know that was a category. All right, cool. So let's have some German mustard here.
Nothing. Maybe a doctor of wise assery. If you're going to talk like that.
I was kind of disappointed by it.
You don't like Germans?
Yeah, we'll skip that question. But.
Dropped a brussels sprout. All right, give us your feedback. 1 to 10 on taste.
Let me try another one.
Oh, he's gonna have some more.
I was disappointed because it tasted really mild.
Tasted mild. The texture is kind of weird.
Yeah, Maybe not going in for the kill.
Okay. I would describe that as a very.
Brown mustard. If you're familiar. If you're familiar with a yellow mustard versus a brown mustard. This is kind of your classic brown mustard. It's just not brown in color.
Look at these lamb shanks. Just look. Just feast your eye on that baby. Yes. Good work, Dr. Clement.
Well, next time I'll do it for 24 hours more, but.
All right. Well, we had it in the fridge for about 24 months, so it kind of pre cooked there. I got that from the farmer's market in, like, June of 2014. 13.
There's so many years left on that poor lamb. All right, all right. Going in for round two.
You know what?
Actually, I'm gonna give this a. I'm gonna give this a nine on flavor. Really? Yeah. I really like this more. More of the more Germans got. Yes, I really. I really like this German mustard. All right, so the question comes up, why are we spending so much time reviewing mustard? And the reason is because.
Studies have shown that mustard is the best condiment. And if you disagree, you're going to hell.
Did you see that research?
I hadn't.
How do they define help?
Oh, well, I went to church. I went to college to be a pastor.
Okay.
That's pretty much in pastoral ministries class. It's like mustard 101. Yeah.
Take your expert opinion on that.
Jason says lies. Sorry, it doesn't bother me. I'm not the one going to hell. All right, next we're going to go into Trump's. Oh, wait, first, what's our winner?
You gave guju jang a six.
I gave it.
Seven, but I gave it 10 for manliness.
I'm gonna. Okay.
Wins on manliness. German mustard. Would you give it one out of 10?
It would be, like.
Based on the others. Three, four, three.
Wow. Oh, it does not like Germans. Okay. And I can give it an eight or a nine. Okay. And Dijon. I gave a ten for flavor.
I think an eight for manliness. You gave it a what for flavor?
Four.
Oh, man. All right, so do we have a winner in the Guju in? Kim Jong Un wins again.
I kind of like the Korean one personally. Oh, come on.
Everyone roll your eyes if you're not surprised that Clement Juan likes the Korean mustard.
Ah. In this crazy PC, politically correct world, the Koreans win.
Bradley Smith says Kim Jong Un sucks. You gonna take that?
I agree. Oh. All right, so next we're going to Trump's best and worst moves. All right, so what's up? Brandon Young. Good to see you, dude. You're just in time for the Trump discussion. All right, so, Clement, I want you to give us first.
Let'S not share our bias. Let's just give a. An analysis here.
Do we have a bias?
Maybe.
Sometimes I think I'm completely objective on the subject.
Okay, you know what we need? Pink Himalayan sea salt. I'm gonna get some. Doctor. Huh? Dr. Clement, give us Trump's worst three moves in office so far.
He better not raise tariffs on Guju Jung mustard.
Worst three. Go.
Where's that big thing of salt?
I thought I brought it over.
There's that one. There's that one.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
All right. Whatever. His best and worst moves is. Go.
Say something smart.
Trade. I.
Well, I. I guess he's getting, like, results. So it's not in trade. Yes. Which is interesting. Like, I. I disagree with.
I think you should just. If people want to subsidize their.
Pause. Quick product review. Jacobson salt is the goat.
What does that even mean?
Greatest of all time. Jacobson salt is the goat. Somebody put that on a quote card somewhere. Which, by the way, if you are an Instagrammer who puts quotes on cards and that's all you post on Instagram. You. All the people who do inspirational quotes on Instagram, you get some Jacobson salt. That's. What is the goat.
That came out weird. Not exactly what I. How I meant it.
Where do you hide this?
Where do I hide it?
Yeah, I hide it in the fucking.
Salt jar in the salt section of the house. Okay.
I was looking for it the other day.
Fucking amazing. All right, so listen, this one here is the rosemary salt. Oh, it is. It is. You could. You could put this on a small child, and I'd be like, that child. It looks delicious. It's so good. So good. All right.
Someone just said I hide it in my undies. I would. I would totally put Jacobson Rosemary Salt on my most sensitive areas. If anyone knows anyone at Jacobson Salt, please send them an email.
A message with two things. One, I want to buy your company. We should talk about private equity in this. In this stream. Number two, tell them that I put Jacobs and Salt on my most sensitive areas. Those are the things I want you to send them. All right, Someone put this. Hey, can you look up on your fancy phone if Jacobson Salt has social media? Jacobson Salt. This is what we're gonna do. Listen, fast laners, capitalist 1 percenters. I don't know what the to call everybody anymore. Listen, this is what we're gonna do. We're all gonna tweet inappropriate things at Jacobs and Salt. That's what we're gonna do all together, everyone at once. Okay. Did you find them?
I'm looking.
What's their. What's their Twitter or something? Who are. We're gonna put. I'm gonna tell them how I put Jacobson Salt on my most sensitive areas.
Well, who Twitters anymore companies.
If they're on Instagram? I'll just take a picture of me putting it on my most sensitive.
We do have one Jacobson slide.
All right, Perfect. And what is it?
Jacobson Salt.
Okay. Co.
Jacobson Salt Co. Like Jacobs and Salt Co. Right? Yeah.
So it's all right.
Listen.
En. So J, A, C O, B, S E, N. Salt Company.
Salt Co. Okay, this is what I'm tweeting right now. I love Jacobson Salt Co so much.
Is this the one where they made the. The butter? Did they make the.
The butter.
The butter that you really liked, which had the mushroom. Not mushroom, but the truffles.
Yes, the truffle butter. Yeah. Did they. Wait a minute. If they did, my mind's gonna be blown. Jacobson. Wait a minute. No, it doesn't look like it. Nope. They're just salt.
They're just a salt company. All right, So I just tweeted, I love Jacobson Salt coast so much that I put it on my most sensitive areas. I need all of you to join me because we're Gallas regalis. That's all right. So I need all of you to join me in tweeting at Jacobson Salt Co and tell them how much you Just send them something about.
How delicious it is and where on your body you put it.
Okay.
I'm sure they will be delighted.
I'm sure if they're on Instagram, I'll send them a photo. Okay, so trade is your bot, is your MO Is the thing that you dislike. Donald Trump did. And I most dislike those fuckers who post inspirational posts on Instagram.
That's Trump's fault.
Look, I didn't see a lot of it under Obama, okay? Everybody was getting their hope and change from Obama, and now they have to get it from their goddamn Instagram posts because that's all that people just go. If those Instagram accounts were people, I would pee on them. All right. Go, please. All right, what's your second least favorite thing about.
Is the US Marketplace too saturated? Not in the salt category, I'll tell you that. Because Jacobson is the goat. All right, what else don't you like about? What else has Trump done wrong?
Well, I can understand the symbol of the wall, but I think spending is that much money on and like, this ridiculous.
On the wall.
Yes.
Okay, well, he hasn't really spent anything on the wall, has he?
That's fair.
Has there been any spending on the wall?
Yes, I'm pretty sure there has. I think they're appropriating it from something else.
Okay.
But I can't remember.
I'm going to say Trump's worst move was signing off on the budget.
Oh, that. That was pretty bad.
And. And not just because it's a deficit, but because he caved.
Yeah, but so there's some speculation of, like, there's a possibility that, like, even though it's in the budget, he doesn't actually have to spend it. So there's discretion within.
Within, I guess, the different cabinet secretaries. You don't actually have to spend it.
What's up, Matt Lubberstein?
What's up, dude?
You know, Matt was invited to join us at this very table, and he stood us up. What stood us up?
Like a Instagrammer who posts inspirational memes stood us up was this. Yeah.
Oh, okay.
So I'm gonna say that's Trump's first move is signing off on the budget and caving. Not sticking to his gums. Gun. His gums. His guns. Which are like guns, but gummier. All right, so we got trade, the wall.
And the spending bells. His worst moves. Best three moves of Trump. Go, Dr. Clem.
I think there is much to come, but the tax bill.
Mm.
Is definitely up there.
Someone, Steve, asked me if I'm Nihilistic. Nihilistic. That sounds exhausting.
No, you're not. Like, you think everything's.
Pretty dark.
Pretty dark?
Yeah. Really so at all?
I think.
No. Nihilistic means you don't believe in anything. I'm gonna go off camera while I get a piece of meat unstuck from my teeth.
What are Trump's best moves?
It was really in there.
And I think changing. Changing. Oh, regulations for sure. Like, massive across the board on regulation.
I'm gonna go with Neil Gorsuch.
Oh, yes. Yes. Actually, that would be.
He's a goat.
Well, and not just Neil Gorsuch, but.
All the other, like, all the other judges ever made.
And Santiago, don't be a disturber.
What'd you say?
I said Santiago stopped being a disturber.
He's. Is he disturbing some?
Yes. He's asking, like, what are the upsides of socialism? None.
They're in zero.
None.
And just bear in mind, I'm completely objective on this issue.
It just doesn't make sense in any.
Greco asked if I'm conscientious or expedient. I think that's a Jordan Peterson reference right there.
I'll say I'm conscientious.
I think. But anyone who claims to be conscientious is probably not, so fuck me. All right.
All right. So here's what I'm gonna do.
Now. We're gonna take some Q and A. We're gonna take some drunk Q A.
Two things.
I think you need to drink more in order to be drunk.
I will drink faster.
Number one, if you want.
Oh, Kevin Martin just put a great question there. Michael, by the way, thank you for that. I'm.
Michael Riffenberg. Thank you for that comment. Just want to acknowledge you. Kevin puts a really good question in the chat. We're gonna move over into the Q and A part of the show. So if you got questions that are business related, money related, or about sex, religion, or politics, we will take them now. I can. I can't promise that I will answer them seriously, but I will answer them.
Dr. Clement will probably give you the most educational piece. I will give you the most opinionated and offensive piece.
So put them in the comments. We'll watch Dr. Clem refute Chris Van Loans critique of.
Donald Trump.
And if you want a specific question answered.
For you specifically, put your question in the comments and then followed up with your phone number and you might get a drunk dial. All right, Are you with me? Put yay or nay in the comments if you're with me. If you agree to Participate, and it's cool. I'll wait for the yays and the nays to come in. But we.
We really shouldn't address Chris's point.
Okay, go ahead.
Attacking. Attacking the world.
Let's get some context here. Chris was giving his take on Trump. Right. Okay, Now, Ian, go ahead.
He believes the worst is attacking the press, FBI intelligence community, and noxious tweets that undermine the presidency.
I would actually argue the opposite. I. I don't know that I would put it on a best side of him.
Right.
I think it makes him a person that. I wouldn't necessarily want to be a friend personally.
Right.
But I think it is kind of what allows him to get things done.
Right.
The tweeting, at least.
Yep. If. If you. To properly analyze Trump, I think you have to look at the game behind the front, and he was playing a game of chaos. You never. You can never have the upper hand with Donald Trump because he is always chaotic, which is a brilliant strategy in times of war. Well, that was a good question that just came in on YouTube. Do you think Trump is draining the swamp? I don't. I would actually put that in the negative column. I don't think he's. I don't think he has drained the swamp.
I think he is disrupting the bureaucracy.
Maybe slightly. Maybe slightly huge swaths of, like, the FBI.
Like in the judicial. I'll give you the judicial branch.
Yeah. I would say the.
Morale'S pretty low at the FBI, as it should be for the crap they've pulled.
I would bet the morale is pretty low at the CIA.
And, I mean, he's shrinking government.
He's. He's just not filling roles. He's letting people go.
That's true.
So I guess. How do you define the swamp?
Like, swamp would be like.
The political machine that is run by people who have been under several administrations.
Then I think with. Without a doubt, he is disrupting it, whether or not it's like, actually, I think some people are being replaced by others.
Yeah. So, like, if we look at the new. Who's the new FBI director? John.
What's his name? I just can't stand him. I can't stand to look at his face. He's been around forever. Like, why do you bring in somebody like that?
I don't know. I thought, oh, no, the CIA director is a. Is a woman. First woman, incidentally, CIA director character. That's ever been a plan. But that doesn't get pressed because he's not.
Yeah, right. If it was Obama, it would be. There'd be, oh, what a progressive. Putting a woman in charge of the CIA. Yeah.
No, but I think, like, if you define the swamp as that, then I think it's being disrupted. If you define it as like, I.
Think it's being shrunk, it's being shrumped. Okay, so we have a question from Josh Reichenbach. I really need some business advice about an angel investor. Cool. Well, you could post the question and then we will answer it. Femi wants a drunk dial. Post your number in the comments. Femi and I will drunk dial you. Okay, first of all, we gotta get to Kevin's question while other questions are coming in. All right, but will you pull up the YouTube feed on your side so we can see some of the older comments.
Where we've got YouTube.com just search Ryan Moran.
Okay.
All right, so Kevin would like to know specifically to Dr. Clem, would you rather have 500k in cash or $1.5 million in Jolly Ranchers?
That's quite the image. All right. That's quite the thumbnail.
Let me see again. Perfect. All right, so would you rather have 500k in cash or $1.5 million in.
Jolly Ranchers? I'm gonna throw in a. A C. $1 million in Jameson Rosemary salt the goat.
Go. What do you choose? What.
What can I sell for the. Can I actually liquidate it in 201?
Yeah, of course. Of course you can.
Oh, then take the higher value.
Okay, so then sell it. That's what Kevin said. I'm actually going to go with the 500k in cash. Here's why.
Because.
The time to liquidate that much Jolly Ranchers gonna be very difficult.
Huh? Don't.
Don't Americans go through Jolly Ranchers?
Like, how long is it gonna take you to liquidate $1.5 million worth of jolly Rangers? That's gonna take forever. You could. Why? You could mean why you could just invest the 500k.
Again, it has to be liquid dateable at the amount. But I think, like.
I mean, I. I would imagine that the. The inventory turns on that kind of stuff is pretty high. So hopefully you can liquidate it pretty quickly.
All right, so we got a question. We got a question before we call Femi.
I can't figure out how you get like the.
Oh, I will show you. There's this beautiful feature on YouTube. It's called the Scroll.
And I was wrong. So now I'm just a dick. That's weird. We actually can't pull them up. That's really bizarre. Super bizarre on a Live. Okay, so question that comes in for Dr. Clement. If you had a spare 100k laying around, where would you put it and why?
Put it in the Jacobson Salt Co. That's what I would do. I put that all over my most sensitive areas.
That's quite the image. But.
I think.
Now we're gonna get the real answers from the good doctor.
I think if you can. Or if you have a business and that you can control.
You're waiting for me to notice?
Yeah. Okay, go on.
If you can.
And you have your own business and you know what your returns are, your business and yourself are probably the best investments.
What do you mean by investing yourself?
What does that mean?
So I'm reluctant to say, like, education.
I'm about to put some Goju Jang mustard all over my Brussels sprouts.
Yeah, that would be.
Oh, yeah, give me the.
Give me the Korean.
What is invest in yourself?
So, like, if you have your business, that's easy. Invest in your. Because you. You have control over the capital. Whereas, like, if you invest in the stock market or another business, there's always a lot more. There's both more and less risk because more risk in the sense that it's. You don't really know what's happening with the money.
I mean, I think.
Why does it keep happening? Why is the Indians game freezing up? Keep talking, Uncle Clement. What about if you didn't have a business, what would be investing? What does investing in yourself mean?
I guess this is. This is where I look really stupid, because I'm not really sure, but in the sense, like.
I think. I think trying to figure out where you can improve your income opportunities individually, where you can put more.
You can. You can have more control over what you earn and move away from making money from the time that you spend on things versus the. Versus the access you own.
Are. Someone just put Go Cavs in the comments. Which reminds me, will someone tell me, will someone give me an update? Where are we in the Cavs game? Like, what's the score and what quarter are we in? Because I want to put it on in the fourth quarter and we might be getting there.
I wonder if they make YouTube.
Oh, we have another computer right now. I'm going to answer this question. First of all, investing in yourself to me means. Oh, really? Good question from Matthew. How do you apply the 8020 principle in your personal life? Cool. So, oh, cals are up 7,000, 158. Yes. All right. So investing in yourself to me means books, mentors, experiments and experiences. Books, mentors experiences and experiments. Books. Highest roi. Thing you will do. Put information into your brain but you can't really.
Well, I guess you can spend a hundred thousand dollars worth of books, right?
It's just. It's just part of an investment, right? Number two, mentors. Just pay somebody who you want to be like, hang around with them. Number three, experiments. Be willing to lose it all for high upside. Experience, experiences. Things you will never forget. I had an uncle who gave me the feedback. Spend your money on things that people can wine burps on things that people cannot take away from you. People can take your Jacobson salt away from them. They'll take it from your cold dead fingers, but they'll take it from you. But they can't take things you learn. They can't take experiences. That's where you should spend your extra hundred K.
Financially.
I'd probably buy a website. Buy a cash flowing website. You could probably buy one that was doing 40k a year with an audience for 100k ROI wise. That is going to be your best bet.
Aren't you dependent on. On like what Google does or.
Well, you should know whatever business you're buying and if it. If you bought one with an audience. No, you wouldn't be dependent on Google.
But like buying any business, you're going to be dependent on something. Aren't you dependent on customers buying things, you know.
Okay, well, difference between a platform and.
True.
What's your opinion on selling potato chips on Amazon? That's where all the money is. Potato chips. All monies and potato chips. Right, Dr. Clement? Oh shoot, I'm low battery.
Where are we gonna plug this in? Dr. Clement is the man with. Holy cow. It's like you. It's like you are a wizard.
Do you want to plug in?
Yes, it's a good idea. Where do you go to buy websites? I use the Good Folks Income store. I also like Fe International. Sometimes like to browse Flippa.com Now Dr. Clement, would you please on speakerphone dial this number?
Doing our first drunk dial of the night, ladies and gentlemen.
Yep, you got it.
Yes.
So they're local.
Get it?
You don't know Femi.
Femi's good people.
Hello? Fabulous Femi. What's going on? You want some lamb shank?
Really? Really? You had your phone on mute? No, we're not dialing her back. She just lost privileges. You were listening to the delay on Facebook and not us. Really? Rookie mistake, Femi, Rookie mistake.
She hung up on us. She thought it wasn't us. No, lost privileges. All right. Daniel likes to know. I see a lot of brands that were part of self consumables. I assume you would need a smaller list because of repeat buyers. So a brand that sells one off products, what would your strategy be? Would you launch new products as quickly as possible? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You don't get to call us back when you hung up on us. No, that's not how Wine Wednesday works. All right. Would you launch new products as quickly as possible and double down on audience? How would you handle that? How would you handle a business that did not sell consumables?
I'm gonna say yes. Always double down on audience, Daniel. Always. Always, forever and ever. Amen. No exceptions. All the money's in the audience. Everybody who's trying to build an audience without it is flying naked.
Always double down audience, no matter if it's consumables or anything else.
Well, like, look at Yeti. Yeti is actually a good example of this.
I think. Yeti doesn't sell consumables, but they've got an extremely loyal following. Perhaps a little less loyal now that they hate the nra, but.
They do, generally speaking, have a very low audience.
So, yes, double down on audience. And you probably will need a bigger audience to sell non consumable products.
Michael Webb, what do you think? What are your thoughts on drop shipping? It's fine. Just do it for cash flow. Don't get most people think it's a business model. It's not. It's cash. Whatever. If you want to do it, go for it. Never been my business.
Can we. Can we drunk dial this number?
There's also one over here.
I'll let you choose. I chose the first one. You get to choose the next drunk dial.
I'd say let's get a woman on the line, but a woman hung up on us. Looks like we're back in my personal life.
Questionable.
What are you saying?
Hey, Aiden.
What's up, dude?
Aiden, hi.
I asked you a question. I said, what's up, dude?
Oh, the ceiling and the sky itself.
That's profound. What's up, man? What do you want? What do you want to ask us on wine Wednesday?
Great. What are your dating goals? Short term, medium or long term?
And why? What is short term, medium or long term?
Yeah. What are your dating goals?
My dating goals?
Yes. Yes. You know, when you're looking for a lover, this is.
I hope not, but all right. I'm a little stumped. My short term, long term, medium goals or long term? Yeah, I guess I'll go first and you go second. All right, what are my short term, long term goals for dating? This is. I feel I'm actually put on the spot here.
I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go long term first. So long term.
I want deep connections with people that I.
Care about and want to be with for many years. And I don't feel the need to be married. I could get married. I'm not turned off to being married, but I don't need to be married.
And I. I just ate mustard from my forearm to my finger to my mouth. Yes. It's better that way. Extra salt. So. And then. So I don't feel the need to be married. I could be married. That's fine. Either way, I don't like not being able to have connections with people I find worth having connections with. So the idea of choosing one person and cutting off all other relationships just doesn't feel right to me. Medium term dating.
Same as long term. I don't know that it's all that different. Long term, I am. Oh, sorry. Short term, my dating goals are exploring deep conversations with connections that I find interesting and exploring the awkward and sensitive topic that is relationships, love, and sex. Those are my short term goals.
Tell us more.
All right, so I'll clarify the short term. Right. So I grew up with the idea that there's like, you pick one person, you're with them forever. Yeah. Don't have sex till you're married.
I. And, and like in the church, that was what I believed. And when I practiced until I was like 26 and then found out I was going to be a dad, so I knew I wasn't going to have the way that I was brought up. And that opened up a can of worms of like, what's the purpose of relationships in marriage? What do you do with, like, the way that we do it doesn't seem to be working out so well. Are there other ways to do this? And that's a messy, awkward, hard conversation that I want to have. And there's not a lot of people having it. So I want to have those types of conversations in the short term with people that I find interesting and attractive. All right, Clement, those are my short term, medium term, and long term goals. What are yours?
Almost exactly? No.
I don't think people really want to care about my medium, short and long term. Yes, they do in my relationships. But.
Okay, so let's say short term.
I think it all kinds kind of mixes in together. I'm looking for a Long term relationship.
Something that's supportive of my goals.
That augments what I want to do in the world.
And.
We'll have fun with me along the way.
All right, everybody. Dr. Clem just put himself out there. How can people reach you? If they want. They want to go on a date with Dr. Clem. What's your Twitter handle?
I don't have Twitter.
What's your Insta handle?
I am very hesitant to tell you.
Best answer of the night.
Post in the comments. If you want to go on a date with Clement.
We'Ll filter out.
Aiden, thanks for the question. You successfully made us both uncomfortable.
And thanks again, Aiden. Thank you. All right, man, talk to you soon.
Have a good night.
All right, you too.
Do we want to call Live Free and Entrepreneur?
Yeah, we can do that. I just, I want to address Femi's question. You should call me back because entrepreneurs don't give up and then try and try again and see until it works. Which is interesting because I would say entrepreneurs don't hang up on other entrepreneurs.
All right, who are we about to call? Ghostbusters. You see what I did there? The Indians game keeps locking up, so we're gonna put on the cash.
Who we dialing?
I don't know. I don't know the name.
We don't have a name.
Live Free and Entrepreneur.
Okay, there we go.
I wonder if this person has a real name.
That can't be a real name.
I guess it could be. I don't mean to be anti PC.
Here we go. It's getting real quiet in here. Hello? Who is this?
Hey, how's it going?
Hey, do you have a name?
Yeah, Andre.
What's up, Andre?
Hey, how's it going?
Good man. What can we do you for?
Yeah, just had some questions in regards to your test group. I mean, I've been doing your test group for a couple weeks now and I guess the one thing that missing from the test group, I would say is maybe an overview or maybe somebody to look at the products I'm selling now and see if it's even worth continuing on. And.
Basically, should I be looking at other products to sell?
Cool. So yes, you should always be looking for more products to sell. Always. Now remember, my philosophy is that you should target and choose a person, not a product. And people buy an infinite number of products. For example, on this live call, I've basically said that I like weird foods. I like Korean mustard, I like rosemary salt. I think La Crema, which is a cheap wine, is super underrated. So you've Started to identify things about me. I'm a person who, who buys multiple things for record.
La Crema is not that cheap.
La Crema is like a $20 wine.
That's a cheap wine.
It's not like three buck check or like.
You are correct, it is not $3.
Some of us have different standards for what? Cheap.
Okay. So anyway.
So Andre, target people, not products. So if you're selling wine glasses, what is the brand behind the wine glasses and what else does that person buy? Always be developing new products. Now, more specifically, the test group that you're in is about launching products and releasing them and getting them to sales velocity as quickly as humanly possible. Not what products you should sell if that's a struggle point for you. I put a of ton, ton of stuff out there on my podcast for free about choosing products and scaling brands I'd recommend you go through. But the purpose of this group is to get every product that you've got in your line or that you are releasing later up and moving really quickly.
Right. Currently I have three products. Two are pretty much the same product. I just sell in different quantities. Set.
Yeah. So we're going to call that one product.
Okay. And then I have another product, but I think it's more seasonal.
All right, so go roll out the three to five products that that person buys. Use the training materials inside the profitable product launch test group to get them to 20 to 50 sales a day. You'll have a million dollar business 12 months from now. That's my prediction.
All right, perfect.
What else you got?
Oh, no, I had one other question. I was based off of training last week and getting Facebook group up and running. Hit me with a bunch of likes, getting a bunch of engagement and likes. But they're not getting anybody to come to the group from the page.
All right. That's because you don't have a clear hook for why they should join the group. What are you doing inside the group? What's the seven day sequence they're gonna go through? What's the result they're gonna get? What's the promise they're gonna get? So your problem is in your offer. Your problem is in what the promise is when they're gonna join a group. One of the best ones I've seen. If you want to follow along. My mentor has a group called Million Dollar Offer Mojo. Million dollars. All right, cool. Follow. Follow everything he says, model what he does.
And use that to frame your group.
All right?
All right, Andre. Appreciate you, dude.
Yeah. And thank you, guys.
All right, talk to you soon.
Talk to you later.
All right, Dr. Clem, I'm just gonna call you out publicly.
There are people watching you on this, sending you very lovey text messages.
Busted. We busted him. This is great for Clemens love life. If you find Clement attractive, post it in the comments. He might reach out to you so you can send him lovey text messages. I know what's going on here. I see what's going on.
Moving on to questions.
Okay, Dodge.
What do we got? Dr. Clement.
I thought it was a bunch of stuff here.
Damien wants to know. I've just met made the Australian distributor for a range of very unique essential oils and natural isolates. If you were in my shoes, how would you go about building an audience from scratch? Those seem like separate questions.
So look, just like any market, essential oils is made up of plants, people, for the most part, it's made up of people who have a little bit of alternative beliefs. People who would disagree with Clement politically.
Who would do that?
Well, no one after talking to you.
Okay.
Just people's for clarification. People on the left who haven't read things in a while. So.
It'S not.
I don't see.
You can't blame them.
The world isn't left and right, Ryan. It's people who logic and people who don't.
You're just saying that because you're Asian. And most people just say it's not black or white. And you're like, but I'm Asian.
That might be the most offensive thing I've said tonight. I gotta keep drinking. All right.
Essential oils, right? So look, there are Facebook groups. And the targeting that you can do of people who like essential oils or people who like alternative health or people who read Dr. Axe or Dr. Oz is so easy to get in front of. And the way that you get in front of them is you put some sort of a hook, put some sort of a bait in front of them that gets them to bite and gets them into a Facebook group, a Facebook page or something else that puts you able to distribute content and ideas to them. That can be an email list, could be a Facebook page, it could be a Facebook group. It could be whatever. Whatever you are comfortable. That was a blessing. It could be whatever medium you're comfortable communicating. The real important thing is, are you targeting them and are you putting a bait that is interesting to that group of people? And that might be a free essential oil. It might be a guide of the most. The 10 essential oils that you have to have in your diffuser. It could be the three new essential oil blends that reduce stress. It could be this essential oil causes weight loss and removes hunger cravings. Like what? Whatever you, whatever your hook is. Put that in front of the targeted people and then watch the odd. And then put them into a place where you're comfortable communicating with them.
Well, Dr. Clement, what do we have next?
We have a call we're gonna call.
Oh, who we calling?
Johnson.
Brock Johnson. Brock. Brock the Rock Johnson. That's a badass name. Brock Johnson from Gainesville, Florida, weighing in at £231, Brock Johnson.
How's it going?
Is this the heavyweight champion of the world? Brock Johnson.
150.
All right, what. 150 pound Brock Johnson. What can we do for the featherweight champion of the world?
Yeah, so my question would more so be, you know, what's your See you talk about buying the Cleveland Indian. I guess my, my thing I, I want to know is like what's the, what's the deeper part of that? It's a good goal to work towards but like more so like you know, kind of what the purpose of what you're, you're doing is like kind of like your vision for like, you know, like what impact you want to leave and you know, how you want to positively affect people. You know, just you do it. I like, but it's just like I don't understand like exactly what it is. And so it'd be interesting to hear like your kind of vision for like you know, what change you're trying to have in the world.
All right, so there's a two parter to that and the two parter is what's the why behind me wanting to own the Cleveland Indians? And then the second is what positive impact do I want to leave on the world? And I see those as separate questions so I'm going to address them separately.
So my why for owning the Cleveland Indians and see money. If you're watching this, this is totally clippable. Put the, put this into an Insta story or something or a YouTube video or something. Well, I've got my mouth full of lamb that's coated in Jacobson rosemary salt. Most delicious salt in the world. And the winner of our product testing champion goju Jong spicy mustard from Whole Foods. The. The my why behind owning the Cleveland Indians is because everybody needs a frickin goal and goals only reason is to keep us on track in a direction. And I have found that people without goals flutter all over the place, especially now. And so the Cleveland Indians owning the Cleveland Indians is my guiding Light for how I make decisions. Am I thinking big enough? Am I being aggressive enough? Am I playing the game as well as I could? That's how I filter out my decisions, is the business I'm going after. Interesting. Within the context of that goal. That's that, that's the first piece. The second piece of that is because I can't imagine anything more fun than being the owner. Sitting in the dugout with eye black on my eyes, a jersey with Moran 13 on the back at spring training, leading chance in the dugout, going, here we go, Indians, here we go. And I'm going to be like, put me in, coach. I'll play right field right Only once we clinch the division because I'm terrible. But that's my why. My why is literally because everyone needs a goal in order to maximize happiness and to make decision making faster. And that's mine. I know that's not sexy, I know that's not emotional. But I picked that as my goal when I was 13 years old because I needed a context for making good decisions. Clement, you look skeptical.
I.
That makes sense.
All right, now the second question. What's the impact that I want to leave on the world? I don't know. And to be honest with you, I'm okay not knowing right now because I know that I make a difference in individuals lives and the difference that I make in their lives is different on a case by case basis. And so I don't feel the need to have this way that people remember me except for the fact that maybe I made them laugh and that would be enough for me. And if just as many people were offended, but half of them thought I was funny, that would bring me a lot of joy. But I don't have like an overarching like, this is how I want to be remembered. This is the impact I want to leave. I. I want to have a meaningful impact on the people that I meet in the way that I meet them and the way that I impact them. And just like a boat creates waves, I know I'll create impactful waves while I'm in direction. But my direction is not guided by the impact I want to make. I make an impact as a byproduct of me going all in on pursuing the goals that I have. Does that make sense?
Yeah, no, that makes complete sense. So, you know, has it evolved over time? Like, I guess that's what I'm kind of interested in. And so it's like, at least for me personally, it's been just changing over my whole life. And yeah, just be interested to see that and, like, how it's changed because, I mean, I ran into millions from Amazon and, you know, it just really made me think about my life differently. Yeah, I was just wondering if you had that same realization once you had your exit this past year.
Yeah, totally. I mean, I think we as human beings, hey, the Indians won. High five.
So I think most human beings want there to be, like, a purpose to our lives. This is why we turn to religion, because we want there to be an answer. We want there to be a path, want there to be a purpose for our lives.
The harsh reality is that there's not. There's, there's. There's. There's no reason we're here to be here. That's our purpose. But we are happier and we make better decisions when we assign a meaning to our lives. And that can change based on circumstance, based on season, based on our surroundings. And we make better decisions when we decide what the filter is going to be for our lives. Now, most of us let other people make that decision. We make that decision based on what religion we're a part of, what political party we're a part of what our parents tell us. And so we're always at the mercy of what our. Our context is. I just choose that I'm okay with my context changing from time to time. And sometimes that really fucking sucks. Like, sometimes you feel like you're a reed in the wind being blown around because you don't know what it is in this period of your life. And when you're in that period, the purpose of your life is, is to become the person that will be ready for the next time you feel like you know what your purpose is, which is like the hardest thing in the world to do. Which is why we want there to be, like, one thing that guides us, one thing that drives us, but there is no ethereal, ultimate meaning to it. There's just whatever meaning we assign to our lives.
You know, I agree with, like, pretty much every one of those points. And my purpose is that people are actively working towards whatever they are deciding to make. Yeah, my whole purpose was to just maybe have you clarify in public as just to what you kind of working towards, because psychologically, maybe think of it a little bit more and, you know, maybe somebody watching this will think about what they're working towards.
I like your style. Featherweight champion of the world, Brock Johnson.
Well, I appreciate you taking my call and I hope that you guys have a great night.
Yeah. Where are you based, man?
Minneapolis.
Awesome. Dude, I appreciate you. Thanks so much for watching.
Yeah, thanks. Have a great night.
All right, you too. That's my favorite question from Wine Wednesday, maybe that we've ever done. I love going into the weird esoteric. I should have a podcast all about the esoteric. Maybe I'll call it the Ryan Daniel Moran Podcast with the tagline money, sex, politics, and religion coming q3@capitalism.com.
Yes, and I'd like to visit Minneapolis too.
Do we just decide that we both love Brock Johnson and we're gonna go see him? Is that.
I don't think I'll go see.
Did we all just become best friends?
Apparently. But okay, let's quickly go through some of these questions.
Questions. So real fast before we give into another question, I need help from the audience. Okay. There's some things I'm struggling with right now, and I need some feedback from the audience. So Brock brought up some interesting points, and I was talking a little bit about being in transition in your purpose. I've been in that spot now I feel like I'm in the tail end of that transition. But so I feel. I feel pretty good about where I am in life or I need help is dialing in my message and the next pieces, like the next context of content that I'm delivering. Like, I kind of feel like I should just have a personal podcast where I talk about money, sex, politics, and religion. I sometimes feel like I should have a business and politics show that is capitalism dot com. Sometimes I get the feedback to just go all in on Freedom Fast Lane. But, like, I feel like I've said everything there is to say on Freedom Fast Lanes. So I would like some feedback on the context of content that you would like to see come out from me, slash the companies that I'm a part of. Clement, you look very pensive.
Yeah, I'm just thinking, like, about that comment of, like, the question of purpose and transitional purpose. I don't know. Like, I think.
I think our experiences help build on what we think or what we feel is our purpose over time. But does it mean that it actually changes all that dramatically? Or if there was some innate subconscious idea of what purpose is? Because, like, okay, context is. I think.
I had a business coach ish person who used to always point out, like, there's a difference between happiness and satisfaction. And happiness is kind of on the surface level. Like, you can get that from drugs and then you wouldn't know that's true too.
And then you have deep satisfaction. And these are the moments where.
You get that sense of accomplishment. You get that?
How did the Celtics take the lead?
I'm sorry, that's. I don't feel happy or satisfied based on the score of the Celtics Cavs.
Game, and I don't care, man.
Okay, sorry I interrupted. This was important. Go on.
And when it comes to satisfaction, I think that when we think back to in our lives where we were deeply satisfied, deeply.
Those are. Those give us the clues of what our purpose is. And I don't know that that changes. I think it gives us boundaries as to direction, but I'm not sure, like, for me, it hasn't.
I mean, what your purpose is. Yes, but do you believe that there is a purpose outside of yourself, or is there something you've just chosen that you're pursuing?
Six and a half of one, whatever that saying is.
So you. You think that there is, like, a purpose outside of yourself?
I don't know if it's outside of myself, but I do feel that there's something I'm driven to want to do.
Okay, so, like, naturally driven?
Yes.
Yeah. I think we all have natural tendencies, but I don't think that there is, like, the tragic life who didn't fulfill their purpose. Because there is no ethereal purpose that you have to. We put so much pressure on ourselves to find the thing. There is no thing. Like, you're here for a while and then you stop.
I don't.
I don't.
I'm kind of agnostic now, so I don't know that that's the case, but.
I don't know if that's the case either. But, like, it doesn't change any fabric of the universe if you do certain things or don't do certain things, but it does.
Like, because we have impact on each other and others. And so I think, like.
Whether or not that's, like, part of your purpose or. Or what have you, I don't know. Like, I think. I think we. The impact we have is definitely something.
Creates those ripples, as you pointed.
Well, I'll tell you what. Jacobson, Rosemary Salt has ripple effects all over the globe and in my life and apartment. All right, what's next? Climb. That was really interesting. Thank you for that.
Okay, so, thoughts. We'll do some of these really quickly. Can you explain your test group based on. This is a much earlier question.
Well, no.
Okay, Thoughts on information products?
I put together a test group to get products launched very, very quickly because we got some tests going that are just killing it right now. And so we can get over the 100k hump. Really, really quickly. So put together a test group of like 100 people.
Thoughts on information products in 2018. I mean, I don't know if you want to answer that. I mean, everybody. As long as information creates value for somebody, there's always going to be a market. Okay, I, I'll answer that one. Cool. Do we answer the soap one? I have a soap shop brand and want to open another soap brand that would be targeted for another audience. Is that weird to kind of compete with myself?
We, I think we disagree on this one, so I'm gonna let you go first. Well, you would say so. I'll say what I would say.
That's the wine kicking in. I would say sounds like you have not maximized the brand in front of you. Don't go make a duplicate brand until you have maximized what you got. But it is totally cool to have two brands that are very similar that target different people. Just don't do it until you have owned the space, owned one of the audiences that you're targeting.
I'd agree with that. And like where I think is kind of cool is where you have certain space cases on Amazon where certain search terms like three of the 10 people are the same parent company, but they all kind of target slightly different things.
Yep.
Why sell companies and not try to build nine or 10 figures?
I've gotten that a couple times because I've never built a nine figure company. So, Nick, my, the reason I sold an eight figure company was a. I had never had $10 million before.
And there's an ROI to safety and happiness and security. Like, you become more risk tolerant when you're like, ah, but I got millions of dollars in the bank and so it frees you up to take other risks. Number two, I'd never built $100 million business before. I didn't know how to take it to $100 million. And my hope is that the, the people that I partnered with would know and I would learn faster as a result of partnering them and selling to them.
And into that point, you liquidated most of your holdings, right?
I still own 20%. Yeah.
And you can apply that to other things.
Yep. I'd rather have 20% of $100 million company than 50% of a $10 million company.
And invariably I would also argue, like, at some point your turns start to slow down. So whether or not you're the right person to take, take advantage of that and structure things differently so that you can still maintain those high returns is an open question.
This is about to get messy.
Chris, you should definitely screenshot that one.
Hey, both Doris are here.
Oh, this meal is totally bulletproof.
No, we aren't. We are eating lamb sous vide.
Lamb lamb sous vide.
That was cooked for too little time.
But, you know, still delicious. Okay.
Ryan, need your advice. Want to do drop ship using.
Google? Okay.
Or want to build list via Facebook or supplement on Amazon. Not sure how to make better and wiser decision. What's your opinion?
Build the frickin list. You own the list. Driving traffic via Google to drop shipping is a cash flow play. Don't do a cash flow play. Build the list as an asset you'll own for years.
Yes. This is going to be recorded so you can watch it later.
To Lucifer. So.
To Lucifer.
Yes.
I wasn't aware he watched my broadcast.
Well, he's not. He's now. I feel for the. The recording.
I guess it's good that Lucifer is asking me. I was watching a one about life, advice and purpose. Because I'll tell you what, if anyone needs some new direction in life, it's the Lord of Darkness. Lucifer, man, that guy has been with good people for a long time about timing out his life on track. All right.
Lucifer man.
So somebody said, the content I would like to see is advice that we can apply to our business lives. Maybe stories of your students or a case study like Jungle Scope.
Can you get that on Freedom Fast Lane, Right?
Yeah. And. And your podcast, which is coming out soon.
Mm.
Also a good picture for you to take.
Man, I cannot believe the halves blew this game.
That's rough.
What else we got? Oh, Katie has a good point. Katie made a good point. We're low on wine and apparently I.
Need to speak louder. Yeah, okay.
How come no one's giving us their number? We haven't drunk out anybody in like, 12 minutes.
Katie, give us your number.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
You can't call people out.
People that we know.
Devin.
How did the Cavs fuck this up?
Brock Johnson says, by the way, Ryan, I almost died a couple years ago, and it completely changed my life. And I just faced Lyme disease this past week. Never know what's going to happen. It made me really think real hard about life.
Those are always the moments that three years later you look back on and you're like, wow, I'm glad that happened.
Thoughts on influencer marketing to promote a crypto merch brand?
Well, don't sell crypto merch, because crypto has no inherent value.
Yes. A technology, not an asset class.
But Amazon or Amazon Influencer marketing is great. What I had it.
Like, you just gave us your wife's number.
What?
You're a sneaky snake, Devin. Doris, you sound like your wife.
That's because Devin's camping out my phone number, just like my sister used to do in high school.
We figured, you know what we should do? We should crank. We should prank phone calls. People with sound boards while they're watching, and they'll be super confused, like is exclamation, Ryan. But they're on a soundboard. We're gonna do that next. Hey, Katie. What's going on?
Going on, guys?
Yeah.
How are the dogs?
Awesome. Yeah, they're chilling upstairs.
How's the grilling?
This is getting awkward fast. One of you better say something smart or interesting or funny or offensive fast. This is going off the rails.
How about, I don't know, have you seen all the good stuff that my boy Trump's been doing lately? Making big moves.
You missed. You missed the first part of this broadcast. We gave the best three moves and the worst three moves of the Trump presidency. Where does. Where does Devin fall on this? What are his best moves and his worst moves?
I mean, his best move was that he was born, obviously.
The worst move was that he didn't beat the worst. The worst move was that he didn't decide to run for president.
President.
Yeah. I'm gonna disagree with you on that one, but. But thanks for playing.
Well, I watched this. I watched a documentary recently on, like, kind of his.
History, and then, like, all the times that he kind of looked into running for president. I had never heard that before.
What was the documentary called?
On Netflix right now, they have, like, it's just called Trump.
It's just called Trump, like, BBC.
BBC documentary that kind of walks through the stages of, like, his first real estate deal through, like, the casino stuff.
Well, I just want you to know. I just want you to know, Devin, that Clements and I are going to be in our pajamas watching that later.
I don't have pajamas.
What do you say? What did you say?
I said I don't have pajamas.
Clement is gonna be naked watching this documentary of Trump. That's how Trump. That's how Clement feels about the president. Dorse. Dorses. Thank you for your feedback.
I like you guys. All right, later, dudes.
See you.
Good thing they're Republican and not offended by the fact that I just called them both dudes.
Have you considered writing a book?
Yep. Is it.
Aren't you writing it?
Yep. Okay.
When's it coming out?
Looks like April of 2019.
Huh? Yeah. Traditional published Books take a while.
What else we got? I only need one more drunk dial.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Someone just posted that Salt expires in 251 million years. Please tell me that's a real fact. I really want that to be a real fact.
Okay, favorite fast food.
That's definitely directed to you. Why are you reading questions from, like an hour ago?
I'm going back just to make. I'm sure, like.
But in the meantime, you're gonna miss all the relevant ones. All right, we've got. We've got a number here.
Okay?
Somebody local. Someone local. And I'm pretty sure that name very closely resembles somebody who ran for president.
Oh.
That'S true.
Boom. Sauce.
This wine. You. You. You drink your flavonoids and resveratrol. It's a health food.
I'm. You gave me such, like. Hello.
Hello, hello.
We can hear you, y'. All.
I just have to give myself props for being super resourceful.
Okay, go on.
So my name on here is Carla, but my name in the streets is Queen Femaleicious.
I'm very excited for you. What does that have to be about have to do with being resourceful?
It means you wouldn't call me back before, but now I got you to call me.
This is.
Oh, is it Femi?
Yes, this is Femi.
Hi, Femi. I'm very uninspired by your creativity. What's up? Why not?
This lamb is delicious.
What's up, fem?
You don't like my creativity?
What's that? I'm. I'm.
You don't like my creativity?
Femi, you're the star of the show. What's up? How can we help?
I want to know if I can be invited to the next Wine Wednesday Live. If I bring you wine, that's over $20.
Well, I'll make you a deal. My favorite wine is from Cake Bread Sa Sellers. If you bring Cake Bread Sellers, you can be on an episode of Wine Wednesday with wine and Quemont Cake Bread Cellar.
Is that like five million dollar wine?
No, it's like $70 wine.
If I really bring you that, I can come.
Yes, I'm bringing it.
How will I know when the next one is?
I have no idea. We decided to do this two. Two days ago.
Okay, well, I'm gonna buy it. It's gonna be here with me, and you're gonna have to let me know an hour before you go live.
That sounds like a deal, Femi. I mean, you've seen me on the street and stopped within 30 seconds, so I Think an hour is plenty of time.
That is plenty of time for me to get down there. You have to promise, though. We have to do a virtual kinky promise, Ryan.
You know, for a second there, I thought you just called it a kinky promise, which would have been interesting.
We got a kinky pinky promise to Femi. Well, well done on being resourceful Femi. All right.
I'm being serious, though. I'm buying that wine. You have to let me know.
I'm very easily persuaded by cake bread sellers.
I will have two bottles of it.
Good girl. We'll see you then.
All right. That's all I wanted. Thank you for calling me.
All right, later, gator. Bye. That was well done. That was well done. Set up a different Facebook profile and we called the same number, didn't we?
Yes, we did.
That was horrible market research on our part. All right, all right. Do we have time for one more? I like that Greco keeps posting salt facts. And I like that Judson Morgan is here because I need Judson Morgan to post help me turn my drunk Wednesdays into a real show. All right, what do we got? We got one more, right?
Well, do we have. Do we have a number to call?
I don't know. I'm eating meat with mustard on it.
I don't think we do. I think.
Oh, I just got mustard in my hair.
That's what a man does.
You know what name I always enjoyed making fun of?
Amanda.
Why is that?
Because.
Amanda sounds like Amand. Duh.
And so sometimes he'd be like, hey, Amanda, do you know why I did that? She back. Why? Because I'm Amanda.
They loved it.
Moving on. Yeah. So let's answer this question and then we'll last call. Hey, it's Punit from India.
Planning it.
Punit? Yes. Planning to sell natural supplements. Ayurveda veda on dot com. But I can see ashwagandha sellers have like 13, 000 reviews. And so is turmeric curcumin.
Okay.
Is it still a good market?
I've answered this question like 10,000 times. So it's your turn.
I think you can always niche down and I think you can always like turmeric is a massive market is like but it goes in all sorts of things. You can consider turning it into another food product or find a specific spin. Look for and use keyword searches as the clue clues.
Keyword searches as the clues? Yeah.
Like.
Viral launch has a good, good keyword search tool. So does seller tools.
I like the way you put it. You can Always niche down. You can always target a person that's after a specific effect and sell whatever the hell you want to sell to them. Oh, we're gonna do another call.
Yeah.
What area?
This is our last call.
All mean, like where's, where's that based?
404.
A lot of four.
We're calling them the Martin, the Martinator.
If that's what you want to call the Martinator.
The intergalactic champion of the world.
The whitest white boy name in the world, the Martinator.
How are we doing?
I'm doing, I'm doing better since Randy Thaboe joined the Facebook Live. What's going on, Kevin?
Hey, doing well and it's in Atlanta. Number here in Austin. Questions for you? One, One a business question and one would you rather.
All right, let's do I want to start with the business question?
Yeah. So I've got a, an email list of a couple thousand people and I am emailing them each week. I'm interested to know how you blur the line between directly promoting your product versus promoting content these people would be interested in.
So what content are you sending them right now, Kevin?
Yes, I'm in the mindfulness space and I'm writing either an article, something to do with that space from my own perspective, or sharing other things that I found online. And I mean it's them or a podcast or some sort of link.
And when you send them a piece of content is the call to action to consume something else.
It's been more generic. And then my product is advertised at the bottom. So it's like a two. It's like a two part thing. One would be like a blog post essentially. And then below that would be like, hey, here's my product. Are you interested?
So, so I agree with Russell Brunson when he says that the best thing you can do for someone is to get them to buy. Because by doing something, you are getting them to take an action, even if they already have the knowledge to do so beforehand. A purchase is a first action for them to getting the result that they want. So when I send out content, I always want to tie my content back to a product, even if that is just warming someone up for that, that product later on. And there's a kind of a theory of how to do this, to take the piece of content and frame it as the solution to a problem and then make your product the way in which they take action to solve the problem. So for example, the content is how to reduce inflammation. The way you reduce inflammation is by Stop eating inflammating, inflaming foods and start eating foods that reduce inflammation, by the way, one of which is turmeric. And here's where you get our turmeric on Amazon.com that's a super rudimentary example. But that's how you tie it to it. It's to the solution of a problem, and your product is how they take action on the solution. Does that make sense? Yeah.
So let me ask you this. So what I'm doing is very similar to what you're doing with your what I'm reading this weekend pieces.
Okay?
It's very similar to that. So maybe I need to be more direct in asking for the sale, but I'm trying to add value. Hey, here's what I'm reading. Here's what I'm looking at this week and kind of flirting with the sale. Maybe I just need to be more direct, probably.
So most people are afraid to be direct with the sale. There's no reason to be cute with it. And if you read my stuff like I do what I'm reading this weekend because I enjoy writing those, and when I don't feel like doing them, I don't do them. And then when I send them out, if I have something to promote that week, I just tell people, I want you to buy this.
So I'm trying to provide value at the same time at converting a sale to me, they are the same thing. Because the most value I'm ever gonna produce for somebody is when they take an action that requires buying something and then showing up for what it is that I'm doing.
And how do you feel about content or in general being produced for brands?
You started whispering at the end there. What was that?
How do you feel about content in general that people produce in brands?
What does that mean?
What do you like when people come to you like, should I create content?
Oh, you're asking me?
Yes.
Yeah. Well, I, for the most part, I think for the brand, like physical product brands, I don't want their content. Like.
I love Mizzen and Maine, but if they send me an article about 44 Ways to Jazz up my clothing, I'm like, get out of here. Missing in Maine. Just send me more to buy, right? Like, I don't want. I don't want a non content company sending me content. I want them sending me more things to buy. That's why I bought from them the first place, because I liked their stuff.
And personally, I think you should check out Expert Secrets from Russell Brunson. And epiphany bridge stories. I think you can probably generate an infinite amount of what some people might term content, but they're actually really good stories.
That lead to convincing people to buy.
Great point. So, Kevin, what's your. What would you rather question?
All right, I hit you guys with the Jolly Ranchers earlier. A little scaled back. Being we're in Austin, would you rather have $5,000 cash or free tacos for life?
Free what?
Tacos for life.
Tacos. Tacos from where?
Wherever you want to go. They're gonna make a taco for you.
Oh, definitely tacos for life then. Like, I. I definitely can get the value out of that. That's basically like, you don't need to buy food every weekend.
So I can eat them at picnic. If I can get them at picnic, I'll take the tacos for life.
All right, smart. Smart man.
I like your style, Kevin.
All right, thanks, guys.
All right, have a good night.
Can you hit that button so I don't get grease all over?
Okay, yeah.
Well, I think that's going to conclude. Wine Wednesday.
Clement sounds good.
We did good.
We should do this more often. But we. We say that every time, so.
We do. Yeah, all both times.
If you want to see us do this more often, hit the hearts and, like, section of this. Wow, I must be drunk. Hit. Give us some hearts if you want us to do this more often. You know what we should do? We should change the name of it just to frustrate Femi.
But we're not doing wine Wednesdays. We're not doing wine Thursdays anymore. Femi.
All right, we should do this more. We got lots of hearts coming in.
I was just like, is today Thursday? You gave me a heart attack.
All right, everybody, thanks for hanging out with us and entertaining our inappropriate comments. My inappropriate comments?
Me eating in front of you.
And burping?
No, I just got steak stuck in my. They're laying stuck in my throat. All right, everybody, thanks for watching. We'll see on the next Wine Wednesday with Clement and Lyon. Have a good night, everybody. Go Indians.
