Jason Levin and Jovian demo Memelord Tech, their meme-creation platform with face-swap tools and templates. They riff on monetization via OnlyFans, mock traditional offices, and pitch bunk-bed setups as the ultimate lean startup move.
Chapters
You know shit is getting real. Uh, we're gonna be demoing some of the dankest memes that we've created, uh, with our software. Um, on top of that, making some memes with you guys. Uh, I should probably, uh, get to sharing my screen. This is exciting. Um, for everybody who's not invited to Y Combinator's Demo Day as an investor, um, it's okay, it's all good. This is, uh, this is gonna be a lot more fun, um, and, and, uh, potentially more profitable. Uh, keep that in mind. Memes make millions or billions, right, Jovian?
You just wake me up for this? Insane. Yeah, this is our hacker house bunk bed.
This is our— yeah, it's our hacker house. Um, that is my VP of Memes, Jovian. It was his birthday yesterday.
Go, shawty! It's my birthday! Gosh, so Jason hired me stripper. But it's like 60 years old.
It wasn't with the VC money, promise.
Yeah, it was our bootstrap money, so it's fine.
Yeah, yeah, it's fine.
Nobody's gonna get arrested.
Hiring a stripper with VC money, wrong. Hiring with your money.
Exactly. So hire engineers with VC money, hire strippers with your own money.
Exactly, Jovian. I love it. All right, you ready to demo some memes for everybody?
Yes, sir.
All right, cool. Let's do this. Um, all right, very excited, very excited. Um, all right, meme number 1. Uh, this meme I made on Memelord Tech, and, uh, that is a cool meme software if you guys have ever heard of it. Uh, basically, um, I'm kind of retarded, so I work really hard to make up for it.
Yes, I can't— I can't confirm right away.
Thank you, Jovian. I don't know how to code. I don't know how to do accounting. I'm a college dropout. So I just work really hard. It's totally fine. I mean, I only know English and I'm not even a great writer. You know, I'm a decent writer, but I just write a ton, right? So I'm kind of retarded. So if you work hard, it makes up for it, right? Because there's a lot of these mid-tier guys who's like, I don't need to work hard. I'm too smart for hard work. Like, I see a bunch of engineer types and they're like, they think they're too smart to work hard and it's like, oh, AI will do it for me. Or, uh, you know, I'm some fancy PhD, so I don't need to work hard, right? No, you actually need to work harder than ever, even with AI, right? You need to work harder than ever.
Especially with AI.
Yeah, especially with AI, you need to work harder than ever.
That's why I'm, I'm very bullish on AI-less companies because you need to use your brain. So we are like brain first, AI last.
Yes, we are brain first, AI last. I see a lot of people trying to automate the fun stuff, uh, and I think that you should try to use your brain for the fun stuff, uh, and automate the boring stuff. Like, people are trying to automate the hard work, and like, creative work is fun, okay? Creative work is supposed to be fun. It's supposed to be hard work. Um, so just work hard. Even if you're retarded, you can make it. Just remember that the French don't have a word for entrepreneur.
But they have a word for retard.
Exactly, exactly.
What does it say about the French? What does it say about the French?
The French don't— exactly, exactly. They— the French are, um, are very special people who, uh, are not smart people. Uh, is the demo sharing? Is this sharing?
I think so. Yeah, yeah, I guess so. Actually, I don't know.
Uh, can, can people see this?
Can people see us? Can we—
yeah, yeah, they should be able to see, right? Can they see, Jovian?
I think so, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, they can see the tab. All right, cool, cool. Was just making sure, some technical difficulties. It's very hard running one of the most prestigious accelerators in the world.
Yeah, we retarded, by the way.
Yeah, yeah, that's why we work hard.
I've only used laptop for like 3 weeks.
Yeah, yeah, Jovian, he actually just learned how to speak English and read. He is on Dr. Seuss right now, but he's working really hard, you know? Um, but yeah, all right, anyways, you don't need to be the smartest person in the world. If you're slightly stupid like me, just work really hard. You can make it. Hard work beats IQ. I know there's some fuckers who are a lot higher IQ than me, like these, uh, these hardware engineers or like fancy AI researchers, but we're making more money, we're having more fun just because we work a lot harder. Embrace your stupidity, embrace your retardation. All right. Next meme. Uh, another bell curve meme. I do love the bell curve meme. It's a good one. Um, I see a lot of people in the mid are like, no, I need a budget and a finance tracking. It's a lot easier just to make more money. If you're an entrepreneur or a founder or like somebody watching this, then you're probably like destined for greatness, honestly.
Probably jobless by the way if you're watching this.
Hey, hey, I said destined for greatness, Jovian. Not, not jobless. Not now. Yeah.
Not now.
Um, so basically it's a lot easier to just make more money in my opinion. Um, because you could just like get a side hustle or get more customers. Like actually budget tracking, like I don't know anybody who does that successfully that is actually wealthy. Uh, just make more money, right?
Have you ever tried that? Have you ever tried budget tracking?
Yeah, I tried and then I was like, you know, it doesn't, it doesn't actually work and it's easier just to make more money. Like, I genuinely believe it's easier just to like sell more stuff or like, you know, hey, you know, just hit up people like for more freelance gigs or whatever. Like, it's just easier to make more money.
Did you ever sell ass? Be honest.
Just feet pics. Free feet pics for Twitter. I was told by a friend recently that I shouldn't be giving those away for free. So maybe, you know, I'm right here right now and I need to— I need to—
Hey, we're generous. Okay, because we're gonna make more money, so we're not cheap.
Exactly.
We're not cheap.
I think meme demo day should— we should start a feet demo day as well.
That's true. That is really true.
Yeah.
Um, it kind of like, um, determines how much funding you're gonna raise depends on your feet.
The bunk bed is a crazy background, LMFAO. Uh, we are on our YC vibes, bro. Uh, yeah, you know, if you don't have a bunk bed for your team, you're not grinding hard enough.
Yeah, it's either a bunk bed or no bed at all. There's nothing in the middle.
Yeah, yeah, it's either bunk bed or no bed frame.
It's like VC startups, either you go to zero or 100x. It's kind of like that.
Exactly, exactly. All right, we're gonna bring up another meme.
Uh, oh my boy Ricky, we should do a Rick Rubin.
All right, Rick Rubin's been all over lately. I tweeted this back in December. All right, this is literally me. I don't know how to code. I never took a design class. I just make design, or I just make software based on my intuition and taste. I built Memelord Tech with no code, never taken a design background or design class.
Yeah.
You could just vibe things. Like, I don't even mean vibe code, but I mean like actually having, you know, a vibe. Like, build stuff that you love. Like, a lot of people told me not to do the Windows 95 background or whatever. And it was like, no, I love that. Like, that is my taste of what I want.
That's a good thing you mentioned about like just having a vibe. So this is a question for you all, um, watching here. Like, we have like 2 million viewers here. Do you have a vibe?
Do you have a vibe? A lot of, a lot of people are vibe coding.
Think about this.
Yeah, exactly. A lot of people are vibe coding, but do you actually have a vibe? Right? Do you have a vibe? Have you ever felt a vibe? Have you ever listened to the song This Is a Vibe by Jhené Aiko? Like while you're stoned when you're like 18 years old. Have you ever done that? Because that's a vibe.
Sorry, I didn't listen to stoner music. Oh, sorry. Anyways, so why are you trembling?
Is it the cold brew?
I'm serious. I feel like his head is actually—
What are you talking about? I feel like— All right, real talk here. People think that you're supposed to pour this in cups. I think that's bullshit. You could just do things. You could just drink the coffee straight from the—
This is not a bit. I'm looking at his hands.
Yeah, I didn't really sleep much last night. I was preparing for this. This is the biggest demo day of our lives.
Jason Levin sleep last night because we're preparing for this.
So yeah, big demo day. Big demo day. All right guys, but seriously, you don't need to learn, uh, any crazy coding or design stuff. Like, I mean, obviously it's important. Um, but, but at the end of the day, like you need intuition and taste. And the only way that that comes, a lot of people are talking about taste. All right. A lot of people are talking about taste, whatever. The only way taste comes is from years of doing shit. And there's no like speedrunning taste. Okay. Like taste is done by like doing stuff for years, listening, consuming and doing shit. And like, that's how you figure it out. Like I've been building shit on the internet for like 15 years. Like what? I'm 27.
All right.
17 years. Like, you know, like you build your taste over time. Like you can't just speedrun taste. You could speedrun building software. and there's a lot of people doing that, but you can't speedrun taste. Okay. It takes time to do. Um, what do you think, Jovian?
Yeah, I totally agree.
All right. Thanks, Jovian. You're the man. Uh, also shout out Ricky Rick for jumping in, uh, the A16Z podcast. Um, Rick Rubin is really— yeah, dude, he's like everywhere now in tech. I think he's gonna launch a VC firm, Vibe Capital, and, uh, hopefully they invest in us. Because we are vibing hard. Um, all right, on to the next meme, guys. This is meme demo day. This is, uh, the biggest day in, uh, you know, Silicon Valley right now. Meme demo day. All right, um, so this is what I imagine is going on at the real demo day. Uh, technical founders explaining the product to the marketing team.
Oh, Jensen.
Jensen. Yeah, your boy, your boy. Is that your cousin?
Yeah, it's— we were related in a way. We are both— all Asians are related, by the way.
Yeah, I'm related to the dog because I got that dog in me, bro. Um, anyways, so this meme, I'm gonna give you some, some context for this meme actually. Uh, this meme is based on my experience, uh, working with technical founders, and I am that dog. Like I said earlier, I'm slightly retarded and, uh, like part of my brain is missing, you know what I'm saying? And so, uh, I'm that dog right there. I'm like, what is going on? Like, explain this to me like I'm 5, you know? I feel like I say that all the time to engineers. It's just like, explain like I'm 5. Like, I have no problem saying that. Lower your ego.
It's okay.
Like, just explain this to me like I'm 5. Explain it to me like I'm a golden retriever. It's okay not to know things. You know how to talk to girls. Engineers don't. So it's all good, guys. Embrace— if you're a retard, a marketing guy like ourselves, embrace that, you know? And for the technical founders out there, treat us like dogs. We want to be pet. We want belly rubs, right, Jovian?
Okay.
Right.
Okay. By the way, I'm curious, why is it always explained like I'm 5?
Like, why is it, uh, there's a subreddit called—
yeah, I know, but why 5? I don't know.
I think it was—
why not 4?
I think that's a good point, Jovian, and I think you should write a strongly worded letter to Alexis Ohanian from Reddit.
Maybe like if he's explained like I'm 3, explain.
But yeah, that's true. 5, I feel like, is when you gain consciousness.
So I don't know who myself is. I would like—
I mean, I've never gained consciousness. Do you have consciousness? I tried, but what's your thoughts on like the whole thing? And like they say that some people don't have an inner monologue. I think those people are just stupid.
Yeah, I think it's true.
What are you talking about? You don't have an inner monologue?
A fucking apple?
What do you mean you don't have an apple? I've never seen one.
No. Can you imagine apple in your head like now?
Uh, yeah, liquid glass. Yeah. But seriously, I have no, like, how do you not have an inner monologue? Like, is there just nothing going on there? I'm just so confused. Like, get off your phone. Stop watching TikTok. Go meditate or something, man. Seriously. All right. Next meme. Sorry. Oh, wait. That one might be a little too spicy. We'll wait on that one. All right. Nice little American Psycho meme. This is when OpenAI was, you know, popping. I guess they're still popping. They just hit $100 billion ARR. $10 billion ARR? Shout out Sam Altman. Um, all right, so Patrick Bateman, babe, she's just a chatbot, I swear. There's a lot of y'all out here who are this guy, and I know that. I know that there are a lot of you out there, because I've seen you on Twitter posting about your AI girlfriend apps. Wanna know who starts an AI girlfriend app? Somebody who has an AI girlfriend. They're like, I'm using this so much, I need one for myself. I need full control. They canceled my subscription. They shut me down, man. This AIGF app just broke up with me. I'm gonna build my own. I need full control. That's who starts an AI girlfriend app, okay? But babe, she's just a chatbot.
We have an AI girlfriend?
No, I just talked to Chad. ChatGPT is my lawyer, my advisor, my therapist. I love it.
What do you mean ChatGPT is your lawyer? Are we gonna get sued?
No, no, we're fine. We're fine. We are all good. Jovian, just don't say anything that you don't, um, don't, don't want on the, on the stream, right, Jovian? Right, Jovian?
Um, right.
I do think, uh, yeah, if you have an AI girlfriend, pivot to not having an AI girlfriend. Pivot to getting laid. That's my advice for the day. All right, on to another meme. Um, all right. Oh, this is a good one. I don't know why there's a bug that says 105 views. 12K likes, 105 views. Yeah, that's— that can't be right. Anyways, Twitter, the broken app. Sperm app, or sperm, right? Sperm. Sperm. Everybody's familiar with the concept of how babies are made, right? We're all mature people here. And yeah, I mean, I competed against the cure of cancer. My mom thought that I was gonna cure cancer as a kid and become a doctor, and now I'm just you know, building SaaS and posting on LinkedIn. So, kind of disappointing, but you know, I'm just happy I'm alive. You know, I think we should just be happy, right, Jason Levin?
We have a question from the audience, Jack Scarisi.
Oh, what's good? Where are you seeing this?
On my phone, on the live chat.
Oh, dude, is chat broken?
So Jack asked, how can I help engineers talk to girls?
All right, how can you help engineers talk to girls? The first step is it's impossible. Understand that it's impossible, fully 100% impossible. There's no way to do it, and I suggest you invest your time in other ways. That's my advice, and if you want more advice, sign up on intro.co/nikitabier.
Okay, I have a question though.
Hit me.
Can Vibe Coders Talk to girls.
I think vibe coders could talk to girls because they have the vibe, you know, but only if they have good vibes. You know, there's a lot of vibe coders with bad vibes.
Bad vibes. That's, yeah, that makes sense.
Yeah. Like not everybody's a vibe coder. Some people are just AI coders, right? Like there's a vibe coder who has good vibes and then there's an AI coder who has bad vibes.
So if you want to get laid, should you vibe code?
I think it's the easiest thing possible. Build yourself a dating app where you're the only person on it. We did this at Silly Valley, and, uh, you could find the girl of your dreams, you know. Um, last night we launched a dating app called Unhinged, uh, and it's, um, shout out Amanda. Yeah, yeah, you could literally just build yourself a dating app, uh, for, for unhinged people, and that's how you find love. If you're a vibe coder and you're not building your own dating app to talk to women, what's the point of even knowing how to code, right? Um, all right, real talk though, real advice, uh, Jack, real advice: find girls on the internet who are funny. Um, and, uh, that's my advice is, is stop going after Instagram thotties. Um, you're an engineer, you're a smart guy, stop going after the thotties. All right, find funny smart girls. Uh, find, find a girl who is, uh, who is wholesome and matches your freak for the amount of brain rot that you consume.
Go to church.
Go to church. All right, either one. All right, speaking of Instagram thotties, our, uh, the king of the thotties right here. Um, this is, uh, right after Elon, uh, got, got caught with his dick in another girl. What's her name again?
Uh, uh, Saint Ashley.
Ashley St. Clair, right? Uh, so I use Memelord Technologies, our software, uh, to face swap Elon onto Genghis Khan. And, uh, fun fact, 3 days later Elon tweeted about Genghis Khan. Not saying that it was connected, but I'm also not saying that it wasn't connected. Um, but yeah, basically there's like a stat that 0.5% of all humans are related to Genghis Khan.
Yeah. Um, so I feel like it's fake though.
No, I feel like it's real, dude. I think I'm related to Genghis Khan.
You look Asian though.
I look Asian. People think I'm Asian.
Yeah.
And, uh, I'm Russian. So maybe there's some relation there, you know, like there was some, something there. Also, Genghis Khan was a memelord. That's a fact.
That is true.
Do you have any—
that's why he killed people.
Do you have any way to not prove that? Jesus Christ, memelord. Do you have any way to not prove that, Jovian?
I cannot.
Exactly, exactly. So, um, in 1,000 years, in 1,000 years, uh, 0.5% of all humans will be related to Elon Khan. I truly do believe this if he keeps on the baby mama rate. Then eventually there will be a subset of population all related to Elon. It is like— oh shit, are we not sharing this tab? Fuck, we're not sharing this tab. Let me share this tab. Sorry guys, the what? I think I forgot to share that tab. One sec guys, one sec. We're retarded. Always remember that we're dumber than you thought. All right, all right, can you guys see? All right, in 1,000 years, 0.5% of all humans will be related to Elon Khan. Elon is putting out babies at a rapid rate. Um, when you think about it, it is kind of beautiful. He thinks he has the highest IQ, and so he's trying to spread that IQ for the betterment of civilization and for his dick. Uh, kind of beautiful, right? Um, kind of, kind of selfless.
The upper head and lower head.
Exactly, exactly. So, um, I hope one day that, that my grandkids or great-grandkids can marry one of Elon's grandkids and we build a destiny just like Hasan Piker and Elon's trans daughter. You saw that meme this week. That was crazy. All right. We're going to, we're going to share some more memes. And what should we do? All right. Here's another one. All right. Speaking of Elon, whatever side of the aisle you guys are on, whatever. I tweeted this the night before the election. Okay. Made this in 5 minutes. Elon ended up posting it. So it was, it was a pretty, pretty crazy moment. And so Trump on the left side, Trump on the right, Kamala in the middle. I think like whatever side of the aisle you're on, you can kind of agree with that. And I'll show you here, Elon ended up stealing, stealing this meme and getting tens of millions of views on it. So I'm not saying that I won Trump the election, but I'm also not saying that I'm not. Here we go.
You shaped America, Jason Levin.
I did shape America, thank you. 125 million views. Fuck, why is there a— there's a— there's some bug with Twitter. Thanks, Elon. But you can see here, so Elon, 125 million views. I'm officially Elon's meme dealer. I tweeted that like 8 hours, 10 hours before, and then Elon tweeted it. All right, you could just do things. I built— I made this meme in 2 minutes on the meme software that I built. I don't know how to code. And Elon ends up tweeting it. Trump wins the election. So I'm partly responsible for the Mexicans getting deported. That's all I'm saying. Yeah. Anyways. All right. Moving on to more memes. What's up, Ice? Dude, Ice should— Ice should pay me.
Speaking of that, can you buy— like, can you get an equity in Ice?
I think I'm going to try to get equity in Ice. Speaking of that, guys, Homeland Security is currently memeing right now, which is like the funniest outcome possible. The most serious, uh, with honor and integrity, we will safeguard the American people, our homeland, and our values. And then they're just memeing. I love it, guys. If you're running a B2B SaaS and you're currently in YC right now, you are not too serious to meme. Anybody can meme, okay? Memes are serious. Memes can be funny. But they are serious. All right. They show hidden truths, right?
Commit to the bit.
Commit to the bit. Exactly. So I posted about this the other day, but basically, like, yeah, Homeland Security is memeing hard right now and I love it. Whatever side of the aisle you're on, whether it's Democrat or LinkedIn. I didn't even mean to say that.
Hey, that's actually good.
That's a good bit. That's a good bit. Yeah.
Yeah. LinkedIn should be its own political party.
I agree.
I agree.
Where the hell is this? All right, cool. So Homeland Security is memeing, but of course your B2B payroll SaaS is too serious to post memes. Whatever side of the aisle you're on, I want a meme lord government. I don't care. It could be Democrat, Republican. I just want a funny government and one that tells the truth. Freedom of speech doesn't censor us. I'm cool if that's Democrat. I don't really care. I just, I don't really think—
I think it's not communist, by the way.
Yeah, I don't think Gavin Newsom is. I think he's a big censorship fan personally. And probably like a communist camp fan as well. But yeah, I want a meme lord government. That's who I voted for. I'm cool either way, either side of the aisle. All right, more memes. All right, this one is from one of our power users, Piet.
Shout out Piet!
Shout out Piet. We actually just hired him. He was a power user of the software and now he is officially meme support. So any questions you have about meme lord technologies, hit up Piet. He's going to be hosting contests all the time, uh, giving away free merch, free annual subscriptions to Memelord Technologies, uh, and probably like first, uh, probably naming rights to his children as well because he just had a first one. So super excited. Thank you, Piet. All right, good one. So this meme just popped up in Memelord Tech. We use AI to scan the internet, find a bunch of new viral meme templates. This pops up, Piet just fires it off. Uh, you know, it's, it's a really deep meme when you think about it. Like it hits the fucking Klarna narrative super hard. You know, Klarna is everywhere right now making fun of Klarna and, and Piet just hits it. 2.2 million views. What I love about Piet so much is when he first found Memelord, he had like maybe 500, 700 followers and just started memeing and scheming hard. And he's gotten retweets, replies from Elon, Sam Altman, everybody that you could possibly imagine. He's just a dude in South Africa and now he's just memeing and scheming and working with us. You could just do things. You can meme yourself into jobs. You can meme yourself into, as I've just shown, you can meme yourself into talking to Elon and talking to billionaires or whatever.
But I want to do some real talk on this. So if you go to the meme.
Oh yeah. By the way, we integrated Klarna for our micro penis plan. So if you can't afford the $6.9 per month, you can now buy now, pay later, no fees with Klarna.
Funny enough, 2 months, 2 years, it's all the money.
A multi-hundred-million-dollar VC fund recently, uh, they asked how they could get free access to Memelord. I was like, dude, it's $6.9 per month. Like, I literally told the venture associate, I was like, I was like, just have you signed up for the Memelord? Uh, have you signed up?
Jason Levin.
I'm not doing it. I was like, have you signed up for the micro penis plan yet? He's like, no, I haven't. I was like, oh, the bigger the fund, the smaller the micro penis. I literally sent that in an email last night. And, uh, that's how I got blackballed from Silicon Valley. Anyways, all right, scroll up, scroll up, scroll up.
I wanna do some real talk.
All right, real talk, real talk. It's real talk time, guys.
Um, here's the thing why this meme exploded, in my opinion. So memes are about remixes, right? You're basically trying to react about what's happening in real time with a trending meme template. So Piet is basically like, this This is an art. So Piet is commenting on the whole Klarna debacle with this meme template, which is, if you're not familiar, it's when Bill Belichick, is it his son, I think, which just went viral, I think within 24 or 48 hours. So what Piet does is like use the latest meme template and talk or make fun of the current meme narratives. That's why he blew up. And you can do this very easily if you're a subscriber. Subscribe to Memelord. You can have the meme templates, you can know what's the latest meme narratives, and you can just be like Piet.
Be like Piet.
This is the recipe.
When in doubt, be like Piet. Um, but seriously, take the trending narratives, the trending meme templates, we text you alerts for them, and then just remix them to your niche or your genre or the current narrative. Uh, so I'm going to show you a really good example of this as well. Um, let's, uh, let's jump in right here with, uh, I, I, uh, here's how one founder, uh, who is a Memelord user, uh, integrated or, uh, uh, put Memelord for his, uh, his niche, right? So he runs an AI startup, AI products, right? And engineers who can't code, marketers who can't market, vibe startup, right? Perfect. Okay, like it says it perfectly. You jump on the current narrative and you make it your own with whatever meme template there is. Memes are endlessly remixable, and you just put it for your narrative. This could have just as easily been something around defense tech. It could have been something around, uh, e-commerce brands. LA riots, Shopify. It could have been like, you know, people who like to steal and people who don't belong in America. LA riots, you know what I'm saying? You could, you could literally endlessly remix stuff, and we're going to show you that in just a minute. Um, yeah, the, the bunk bed is, uh, this is the best office we have, dude.
Yeah, dude.
Why would we spend money on an office when we have a bunk bed when you think about it?
Yeah.
All right.
There's no toilet in this place, by the way. So we just need to go to the Chipotle outside.
Yeah, yeah. By the way, dude, that Chipotle the first day of the trip.
Yeah.
I think that fucked me for the entire trip.
Are you serious?
Yeah, my stomach's been hurting this entire trip. All right. Anyways, guys, we're going to jump in into Memelord Technologies. Should we make some memes?
Sure.
All right.
Let's go.
Alright, so we just demoed you some of my most viral memes, and now it is time to actually make some memes. Alright, I'm gonna face swap myself with Gavin Newsom real quick, 'cause I have a funny idea. So basically, this one, come and get me, tough guy, it's Gavin Newsom. You can see some examples. That's funny as shit, bro. Oh, here's an example, founders when they say they're not raising, that I did. So we're gonna try face swapping me on. Uh, and, uh, on to Gavin Newsom. By the way, Gavin Newsom, I really think he is the biggest psychopath alive, and I say that as the second biggest psychopath alive, so that's saying something, which is that American Psycho. Yeah, yeah, Californian Gavin Newsom. Oh, that's good, bro. We should— wait, wait, let me, let me do that. Let's, let's—
I feel like a Californian Psycho will be way more, um, scary than America.
Oh dude, California Psycho, that's a great idea for me with avocados.
Yeah, yeah.
All right. Oh dude, wow, my Xchat was not working. Oh, it's time! Jovian looking hands.
All right, that's my boy.
Yo, how do I look? How do I look? Do I look good?
Dude, you look just like Gavin Newsom. Thank you. Like this, no chin.
Thank you, thank you. I look like Gavin Newsom. Fun fact, my wife thinks Gavin Newsom is hot, so I'll take it, honestly. Um, all right, uh, Here, I'm gonna drop this, uh, drop this meme real quick. That's pretty good. That's not bad. That's not bad. Uh, what should I do? Why?
You look like Bill Clinton, actually.
Why is he seeing me do meme demo day?
All right, uh, making fun of me, making fun of demo day.
Okay, uh, I'm thinking, uh, seeing me making fun of demo day. All right, well, we'll, we'll figure that out. Uh, VCs I think, uh, YC when I'm doing meme demo day on YC demo day. All right, I like it, I like it, I like it, like it. All right, all right, shout out, uh, shout out Gavin Newsom for being the biggest psychopath on the internet and providing us with endless memes. Uh, all right, oh, this one's good, dude, the, the Craig guy. Man, Apple fucked up, bro. Let's discuss how many ways Apple fucked up. Alright, first, liquid glass, obviously they fucked that up. Second of all, this is how literally it was cropped. And then look at this play button, dude. Like, it's like Apple— did you know, alright, when Steve Jobs was alive, Steve Jobs would review every single asset for Apple. He would have a 3-hour meeting every week for all the different advertisements and marketing. For Apple. He would review all of it before it goes out. Now this is what's happening. So yeah, I'm not saying I'm shorting Apple. This is not financial advice. I also don't know how to short stocks, fun fact, uh, because I'm selling Apple stocks right now. Oh, you're selling Apple stocks? That's what you're doing right now? Yeah. I thought you were trying to help me with the, with the meme empire, dude.
This is helping.
Uh, okay. All right, cool. Uh, I like this one. Uh, the man on the motorcycle waving, uh, is from the, the riots. Uh, so I'm thinking we, uh, we, we cut out, as you can see, it's like a PNG right there. So here we go. So we're gonna put the liquid glass right behind it. Liquid ass. And it, uh, I'm thinking Apple fanboys be like, uh, ass, ass, ass, ass.
All right, cool, cool, cool. Pretty good even without putting him behind.
Yeah, I feel like I'm just gonna put it behind for the, for the sake of it, you know what I'm saying?
Oh, nice.
Let's go, let's go. Designers be like—
This is what the LA riot is all about, honestly. Yeah, dude.
LA, they are rioting because Apple sucks. That's the real reason they're rioting. Fun fact.
They are protesting Liquid Glass by breaking glass.
Yes. Uh, designers be like— Uh, alright, cool, cool, cool. Alright, um, let's keep these memes going. We're gonna keep these going. What else we got, Jovian?
Uh, good. We have so many.
Oh, this one's popping.
This is the one. This is really—
all right, this one is popping off right now. It's insane. So I'm thinking we, uh, we toss something together maybe for, uh, for, for the gram. Um, also, yo, if you guys are watching us on Twitch, um, shout out. We've got, I think, what, 2 million followers now on Twitch?
2.5, I think.
2.5. I thought that was the inches, dude.
Yeah. And, um, 75% of my life, uh, minors, bro.
Bro, bro. Um, shout out to everybody watching us on Twitch. I have no idea how to use Twitch, uh, or Twatch. Is it Twitch or Twatch? If you're watching a Twitch, is it Twatching?
Yeah, I feel like it should be Twatch.
All right, I feel like watching a Twitch is Twatching. I feel like, I feel like that's accurate, right? Um, yeah, watching a Twitch is Twatching. That's so funny. I accidentally just saw— all right, cool. So, uh, I think, um, how iPad kids watch, uh, Twitch during dinner, during, uh, taco night. Dude, this is literally like— it's crazy, man.
Why do you think this pops up? I feel like because it's super relatable because everyone's on this screen.
Everybody's on their screens all the time. Yeah, I think that's what it is. Um, taco night, taco, taco, taco night. Dude, I can't believe the Mexicans were rioting about how we're not doing taco night as much anymore.
Jason Levin is saying, is it no Taco Tuesday? Is it?
Yeah, I mean, Taco Tuesday has definitely fell off compared to when I was a kid. And so I think that's what's happening right now is they're rioting against that. Um, it's just kind of sad, man. Like, I, I still celebrate Taco Tuesday every Tuesday night. And I think we should normalize that behavior.
I agree.
Can't wait to have kids. All right. Dude, Jovian, if you have kids or when you have kids, are you gonna feed them an iPad? Like, yeah, sure.
It'd make my life easier. I mean, at that point there'd probably be no iPad anymore when I have kids. Probably some more advanced shit.
Oh, yeah, right, dude. Apple's been stuck for 30 years. That's gonna be— iPad and it's just gonna be like 0.1 inches.
So when I have kids, well, maybe like 20 years from now, that's where the Apple Vision Pro is. We just start using it. That's where we're going to start. 20 years ago?
Yeah, dude, you're child labor. Um, yeah, I guess I need to learn how to get erection first. Um, yeah, I think, uh, I think you're, I think you're right about that though. I think I'm gonna give my kids— I don't want to just give them an iPad, I want to give them like heroin or something, you know?
Sure.
That way they just stop talking, like, like old Irish times, you know?
They used to give kids like, yeah, whiskey.
I think, I think if you're giving your kids an iPad to, to distract themselves with Cocomelon, you might as well give them whiskey as well. Yes, um, it feels like you should just commit fully. Uh, I'm a big fan of a full commitment to the bit. So if you really want peace and quiet in your household, you should give your kids whiskey. Not financial advice. All right, what else we got? Jovian, who is this? Who is this handsome fellow? Hey, all right, this is from, uh, our episode of Silly Valley. and it's getting remixed, constantly, which is really cool. Um, and basically, uh, we, we upload our own meme templates as well, as you could see. Uh, so what should we do? This is, this is in the room over there, or actually in the balcony over there.
Uh, so we— so what's the context here? What's— so the context is here on the Silly Valley episode. Uh, we were talking about, uh, dating, like compatibility. So what I— my line here was like, If a woman doesn't know how to use Salesforce, how can she be a good wife? It's probably one of the best things I've ever said. And I'm like 3 years old.
I mean, I think that was probably the best line of, that was the best line of the episode. That was incredible. Uh, if you haven't watched that episode, guys, you should 100% do that. Also, fun fact, uh, you could watch it in MemeTV on Memelord Tech. So we, we have it right here. Uh, so. If you need some entertainment while you're making memes, uh, then, then you can do that. Um, all right, let me, let me tweet this banger real quick. Um, dude, I think one day we should go to YC Demo Day and just make memes there the entire time.
I don't want to talk to the people there, honestly.
Yeah, yeah, you're right. The rizz. Yeah, yeah, you're right. Um, but what if we did like a TPPN, like John and Jordy, but we just made memes the whole time? Yeah, that'd be fun.
We need like a very like sophisticated like meme setup studio.
Yeah, sponsored by Ramp or Brex.
Are you sponsoring with the suit?
Uh, yeah, I, I like it. I like the way you think, Jovian. Uh, that's why you're my VP of memes. Uh, can you share this on Memortech?
I already did.
You're incredible. You're incredible. Um, if you're not building a mafia on the internet, what are you even doing, guys? Um, all right, so this is a real fact. If a woman isn't funny How she should be a good wife, right? Nobody— everybody's sick of the Instagram thotties wannabes, okay? But if she's funny, that's wife material, okay? That was the plot of our episode, uh, on YouTube. It's, uh, dude, actually, uh, I don't know if I told you this, it is growing, uh, the fastest, uh, one of our episodes have ever grown, like, very quickly. Um, so I'll show you right here. Um, You know what, we'll— dude, look at that. Oh, that's, that's some good vibes right now. So that's the first 24 hours or so.
It's all Amanda.
Yes, it's Amanda. Yeah, if you have a girl in your YouTube video, you're basically going viral.
I wish I'm a girl.
Well, Jovian, there is a large—
oh, I'm in America, everything can happen. Yeah, you can, you can get some medication.
You could just transition, dude. That's part of America. Um, all right. What else should we make, Jovian?
Yeah, what else do we have?
All right, let's see. Let's see what else we got. Oh boy, Jovian, did you get the strippers, bro?
It's a bit too old for me. It's 18 years old. I'm just kidding.
All right, I like this one. No thanks. It's like, no thanks, I don't have a brain, basically. Yeah.
No thanks.
Very usable.
Great meme template.
Useful for every niche. No thanks. I'm not using VC money on strippers. Beautiful, beautiful. This might be my best. Um, all right.
Uh, I mean, like, to be honest, I feel like it's okay to use VC money. Like, it's not that bad, like, on strippers.
Like, hey, Adam Neumann did it and he was able to raise money again from A16Z. So, yeah, something to think about. All right. Also, Ryan Breslow is a stripper.
Ryan Breslow is—
yeah, he is. He's a metaphorical stripper for sure, like a spiritual stripper, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, he also does yoga.
Yeah, that's the same thing, basically the same thing.
That's true. So basically you're telling that if a person does yoga, then they are a spiritual stripper.
Yeah, I mean, I have my yoga teaching license. Most people don't realize that. They see me as like the tech nerd meme lord. Yeah, but I actually, I have my yoga teaching license from my hippie days back in college. So, yeah, I think, yeah. Anyways, if you're going to hire strippers for your startup, do it for bootstrapped startups only. Okay. That's just my financial advice. Actually, not financial advice. Sorry. I don't want to get sued. I'm not your financial—
Our lawyer is ChatGPT, so don't say anything.
Yeah, we're fucked, dude. We're so fucked. I actually did say that, like, that my lawyer is ChatGPT to like a very like serious person, like actually Naval's right-hand man. I was talking to last week and he's like, oh, do you have a lawyer? I was like, yeah, ChatGPT. He's like, good decision. You're going to waste like $20 grand if you hire a lawyer. And that was literally Naval's like the guy that runs Ravikant Capital.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So fun story. Is that what is that, Ravikant Capital? Yeah, yeah. That's Naval's like family office or whatever. And we were just shooting the shit. And yes. Oh, if you have a lawyer, then you're wasting money. And I say that as a Jew who has a lawyer. My dad is a lawyer. Okay, guys, ChatGPT.
Boom.
Oh, all right. Yo, I love this one. I love these vibey ones because they're really like—
tell me why you love it.
All right, because they're really easy to just like— you just put a caption on top of it. Like, not all memes you could caption on top, but this is just like, you know, uh, this and not going to Demo Day. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, it's just so easy to just kind of like do this, and it's very easy to just kind of pop off with these, I think, especially on Instagram. Uh, and if you're a smart person and turning these into reels, uh, like, like we've been doing as well, um, like, it's just very— it's very nice. Like the TikTok font, Proxima Nova kind of thing, or Inter or whatever. Um, like, this is, uh, this is, this is, this is how I like it, you know? It's just nice Nice and easy. I like these vibe ones. It feels like a poster, you know, almost, you know what I'm saying?
Almost motivational, to be honest.
I am motivational. Thanks. Thank you, Adam. Uh, appreciate it, dude. Uh, UI is super Windows 95. I'll show you some fun features as well. Shout out Adam. Um, and, uh, you know, this is, this is Memelord V1. We, we're, we're cooking up some new stuff, which I can't tell you too much about, but, uh, one of my favorite features. Uh, which most people don't even see. It's a little Easter egg. But when you click on this iPod shuffle over here, uh, Steve Jobs comes up. But more important, when you click it, actually a new meme comes up. So it's, it's Memelord Shuffle. So, uh, remember this meme? It's the, the girl from, uh, whatever it's called.
Severance.
Severance. There we go. Um, all right, you're— and so you could just move super fast, uh, if you're familiar. Your Audi, uh, your Audi Jason Levin, uh, got accepted. Yeah, yo, this shit. He didn't have to apply 7 times.
I feel like, okay, maybe YC is like Severance. Like you apply and then you just be in Y Combinator for like a while.
For life. For life. Well, it is for life because they have so many events. And I honestly like, I have no problem with YC. Like I invested in a startup that went to YC. I, um, I have 2 friends that work at YC, like literally there.
Um, like in, in YC?
Yeah, like, like they work for Gary and like the whole, the whole team. But what I don't understand is, uh, why are you like talking about how many times you applied and stuff like that? Also, like, I still, like, literally I have friends that work for Gary and YC and I still don't understand what you do in YC. Like, I, I don't really get it. Like, I get it's an accelerator, um, but like what do you actually do during the day? Like, I've asked YC founders this. They're like, yeah, we like meet for coffee once a week. I was like, and you like gave up 7% of your startup for that? For coffee? I was like, bro, I could just have coffee for free. I could hang out with my friends who are all grinding on shit for free. So I don't really— I still am very confused about actually what happens in YC. And I've even read Jessica's book, Jessica Livingston, Paul Graham's book about— I've read her book about, you know, working with these founders. I still don't get it. What actually happens in there? It's severance, all right? That's a great analogy. I love it.
I tweeted about how YC is like the glory hole for startups.
Bro, that was funny.
I would not elaborate, by the way.
Don't elaborate. All right. I like this one. I love all the meme templates that have like PNGs removed.
Sure, yeah, because it's real flex. You can put anything on it.
Yeah, yeah. I like that. All right, let's jump in here. What should we add in here? Maybe, ooh, maybe Peter Thiel playing chess. I like that. I like that. Meme Lord, the Peter Thiel meme app. All right, so it looks messy, but all we have to do is just do a little screenshot grab. That's why I like we have the screenshot tool, because it lets you be full creative. You don't have to worry about crazy canvas sizes or any of that bullshit. It just makes things easier. So, all right, let's, uh, let's drop this one down. It's like, who is running the government? And it's this anime girl showing you. Um, all right. Yeah, anime girls actually do run the government.
I think so.
All right, startup idea, startup idea. It's, it's, uh, it's Meme Lord Demo Day. Startup idea: Google Chrome extension that blocks all anime profile pictures. How much would you pay? That's 5 billion.
I pay, actually, I honestly, I would pay like $10 per month.
I'd pay $10 per month. I'd pay $10 per month.
Yeah.
I'd pay $10 per month. All right. I'm thinking we use this one. What should we do first?
Such ingratitude.
This is a good one. It's a really good one. When she sees your memes.
When?
What are we thinking? What are we thinking? Oh no. Oh no. Oh boy. All right. What are we thinking? What are we thinking? I'm thinking about, oh wait, maybe we add a sticker. Let's add a sticker.
Uh, VCs when, uh, when, when their portfolio company actually becomes profitable.
Ooh, that's good. Oh, that's good. That's good. That's good. Um, maybe Jeffrey Epstein.
Okay. What other software has Jeffrey Epstein?
That's a good question. That's a good question. I'm thinking JD Vance. Oh, actually, you know what? Uh, Elizabeth Holmes.
I still haven't tried Zyn. I just realized that.
Do you— you don't do nicotine and shit though?
I, um, I can't.
Yeah, I haven't touched anything like 5, 7 years or so. 5 years. Um, all right, what else are we doing? What else are we touching? I like this one. This one, shout out Charlie Light.
Shout out Charlie.
Made a new version of the mom how did we get so rich meme instead Mom, how did we get so poor? And so this one's a fun one to do. Maybe let's pull some classics. You know what?
Yeah.
The classics are good sometimes. Oh wait. All right. I got this. You need to move to SF and do YC. See, I guess that's what I think is wrong is the fact that you don't have to do any of these to to be successful and happy. Like, I see a lot of people do this who are not successful and happy. Um, bro, you can just live anywhere the internet exists. Like, um, you know, shout out my friend Tyler Dank from Beehive, the CEO there. Like, he runs— look, Beehive, they've raised what, $40 million? Super successful business.
I keep doing it wrong. It should be like the Oh shit, true, true, true, true, true, true. Too many cold brews, man.
Like, true, true, true. Good work, good work.
This fucker actually like down like, it's almost like almost a full bottle. I'm looking at the bottle right now.
Hey, hey, Jovian, we don't reveal our, uh, our state secrets, which is me just drinking a ton of coffee. Our, our moat is my caffeine consumption, Jovian, and I'm not, I'm not giving that up anytime. Um. All right. So I guess that's the problem that I find is like, you could just live anywhere. All right. So Tyler Dank, right? CEO of Beehive. He splits his time between LA and like Colombia, like Colombia, the fucking country. The team is entirely fully remote. You know, it doesn't matter. Like the internet exists. You don't have to be in SF. Like even if you're recruiting engineers, recruiting talent, like there's talented people all over. Joby, you live in Thailand. Taiwan, bro.
I live in Taiwan.
I, you know, now you're out here, uh, and, uh, you know, like, child labor is allowed in Taiwan, so it's a huge arbitrage.
Exactly. So, so here's the thing, Meme Lord right now, I don't know if you realize this, but you— we have team members in almost every continent.
Every continent. We have Antarctica, we have Europe, um, we have Africa. We have Africa. Do we have Africa? Oh yeah, we have Africa. We, we're continental, baby. Meme Lord is international. Space, space government. All right.
Memes are universal.
Memes are universal.
This is our skin in the game.
YC equals— Adam, why have you applied 6 times, bro? Stop applying.
Oh, come on, Adam.
Go build profitable business. Stop applying to YC 7 times. Stop it.
Stop.
I mean, I respect it that you really want it, but Dude, just, just build something, build something profitable. Uh, also you could just like pitch VCs. You don't have to like do a fucking accelerator. All right. Um, all right. Anyways, uh, all right. I think last one, cause we're going to go on a hike soon.
Uh, yeah, yeah.
Child labor, dude. Uh, you're going to carry me. Um, all right. Good one right here. Shout out my boy, Jay Yang, author of the book, You Can Just Do Things.
Shout out Jay.
Shout out, Jay. All right, you could just do things and you literally always have been able to, you know, always, always has been. It's always happened, always have, always have.
By the way, shout out to JM because, uh, my friend in Indonesia like one day just shared, um, an Instagram story and it's Jay.
Really?
Yeah, inside of Jay's motivational stuff. I was like, holy shit, like this is a person from Indonesia that's sharing Jay's motivational story.
So yeah, so he's doing things. What I like about this meme template is you could switch it up so much. Everybody's like, oh, you have to do the always has been. Like, no, you could just do things. You could switch it up. Um, so I've just been doing things forever. I've been making, you know, uh, silly shit on the internet, selling stuff online since I was 11 or 12, selling stickers, selling watches, uh, starting a music blog, DMing artists and musicians when I was in college. Now, like, you know, working in startups, making meme software, doing, you know, crazy revenue. Like, you could just do things, all right? Um, and so this whole movement of you could just do things, I love it, but you could— you've always just been able to do things. Um, I like that, that it captured it, but don't forget that is, uh, you can, you can literally always just do things. Wait, CompuFicial just reposted the stream. I have no idea what that means.
Um, please repost it. Retweet it.
Oh, I love it. I love it. I like that.
Yeah, come official.
All right. I think we should, should we keep going then? Should we keep going? I think, I think we need to keep going. Is this how an OnlyFans star feels when they get tips?
Yeah.
We should turn on, we should turn on tips. Just, just the tips.
Are there tips on X?
Are there tips on X? I don't know. We don't really need the money. It's okay.
Or just DM me, DM me, by the way. We'll figure it out.
Yeah, DM Jovian, uh, if you want to send Jovian money, uh, for child labor. Yes, you should always— you should do that. All right, I feel like that's it. That's all. I need to drink more coffee. So remember guys, you could just do things, and you've always been able to just do things. Make memes, be silly, have fun. All right, peace.
Peace out, Tupac.
All right, wait, one last thing before we go. Special announcement. We officially got an office, guys. So very excited about this.
If you— feedback.
Oh, wow. Wow. Those are nice feet, Jovian. We should be charging for that.
Yeah, it's kind of flat though. I have no arch.
I got the arch.
You have a really good arch, by the way.
Thank you. Thank you. Basically, like, if you're spending money on an office, like, you're not grinding hard enough. You need bunk beds. Okay. Like, Bunk beds are the OG office when you think about it. Stepbrothers? Bunk bed. Me and my little brother? Bunk bed.
Alright? Here's the thing. It has to be only bunk beds, right? You cannot see, but there's like a shit bucket on the corner. That's where we shit and poo. If you have toilets, then you're too late.
You're burning, dude. You're burning so much revenue if you aren't forcing your team to sleep together. Yeah. Honestly.
If your office has a toilet, You're shipping too late. I'm sorry.
I agree with that. Also, uh, if, if you aren't doing OnlyFans on the side as a founder to reduce burn, uh, you're, you're probably going bankrupt, uh, because AGI is coming. Um, and, uh, you should probably take advantage of the fact that, uh, you know, VCs will pay you on OnlyFans. You should, you should take advantage of that. That's all I'm saying. Jobean, should we raise a round on OnlyFans?
I think we should. That's the only way.
Do you think OnlyFans could ever become like a subscription? Like, like I sell software on OnlyFans?
I think so. Yeah, I honestly, that's, that's what should be done. That's the future of startups.
Only software, only SaaS, only SaaS.
That's not bad.
Only SaaS. I think like that could be, that could be cool. Only SaaS. I like that. Um, SaaS picks.
It's like basically a screenshot of your Stripe dashboard.
Ooh, people—
I tweeted once like, your Stripe screenshots are like the feed pics of startups.
Jack said, I was going to send $1K, but tips are off. All right, Jovian, we're going full bunk bed here, by the way. We're going full, full, full bunk bed.
What do you mean tips are off, Adam?
All right, we're going—
DM me, we'll figure it out.
Jovian. Can they see you? Hey, what's up guys? Um, so if you guys aren't making memes, um, then, then you're, uh, you're probably just not having enough fun. Just remember that you could have fun and make money. That's, that's all I'm saying. Um, all right, Jovian, uh, what else, what else do we have to discuss? I feel like, uh, we went, we went pretty, uh, we popped off the other day in depth. Yeah, we, we popped off on TikTok the other day. Discussing how eating ass is the sign of—
Ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass.
All right, Jovian brought up a very good point, which is eating ass is the sign of an advanced civilization. When you think about it in the 1300s, it's very dirty, right? And the fact—
No, nobody eats ass.
Exactly. The fact that eating ass is such a popular thing now— I'm kicking my feet back, full bunk bed mode. The fact that so many people eat ass now is a sign that we are an advanced civilization. Like, everybody's talking about the Kardashev scale when we should be talking about the ass eating scale. And I really hope—
Kardashian scale.
Kardashian. Oh, Kardashian scale. That's a good idea. I really, I hope AL is doing some research into this around the, the ass eating scale and the sign of advanced civilization. I believe, I believe that we are hitting this weird AGI singularity. And there's only one way to get over it. I love both of our feet just kicking. We're just vibing, guys.
We're just vibing.
We're just vibe memeing. Okay, all right, peace, guys.
Tupac. Tupac, peace out.
