#150 The real struggle | Day 150 Coffee With Kenny

We record. We are on. All right. We're keeping this pretty authentic today. Authentic and real. Day 150, coffee with Kenny. Heather's shooting for me today. We're gonna do it just impromptu, one camera. And we're about to reveal to you something I've been telling you for a while. I was gonna reveal. I am Kenny Keller, creator of helicopter land ground school. We're about to show you a very real, very authentic video prior to me launching helicopter online ground school. And we just watched it. Heather had never seen it. Warning, if you can't handle inappropriate, what some people say would be inappropriate language, do not watch this video. Move on and go somewhere else. If you're just going to go down below and say, potty mouth, potty mouth, move on. Because what we're going to roll for you is authentic. It's real, it's in the moment. And I'm not bleeping anything. I'm going to roll it. Okay. This is from prior to the launch of helicopter airline ground school. This would have been probably in February. We launched March 1, 2012. At that time, I'm losing everything. My business, the helicopter business I was running was going down the tubes, but I was creating online ground school. My buddy Terry is there shooting. He's running with his nice canon camera. Because I didn't have a nice camera. I had a cheapy $20 Radio Shack microphone that sounded like crap. And this video that we're gonna roll for you was us trying to shoot an intro to launch ground school. And Terry would roll the video or edit the video for me because I didn't even have video editing software. Terry would go home and then shoot it to me in an unlisted link on YouTube. And somehow I goofed. And when I put it on my channel before I could, before I downloaded it, I accidentally let it go public. So I don't know that this video goes live. And it was never meant to be seen by the world. And what's cool is this video goes live. I'm downloading, trying to edit and put it together and launch March 1, 2012. And one of my current subscribers at that time, 2012, sees this video, emails me, and I get this email, kenny, I just saw your video for online ground school or whatever I call it, Helicopter line ground. And he's like, I can't find the button on your site anywhere. And I couldn't believe that this gentleman saw me acting the way I was and speaking the way I was in the beginning of this video. That was going to be Edited of me screwing around in the hangar, mad, frustrated, frustrated with my life. I just need to get to it and roll you the video. Because if you've been watching this for a while, you understand who I am and what I'm all about, right? If you're brand new and you're coming along, I'm Kenny Keller, creator, helicopter online ground school. Been online seven years, and I keep my stuff authentic, and that's what I'm all about. You know, like today, the Pantera shirt and the AC DC cup, that's me, right? I vowed to never be the guy in shirt and T. Well, I'm Kenny Cutler and I'm a certified flight instructor, and I've flown the BK117, blah, blah, blah. That's never been me, right? And this video has inspired a little bit. I was going to do a different video this morning on auto rotations, and I was looking at one of my really good videos, and I was reading some of the haters, right? Some of the stuff that people say. So it got me in kind of a feisty mood. Not because I'm aggravated. I'm happy, and I'm happy where I'm at. Last night, I slept too much, vice versa, of staying up too late and drinking beers on the boat or something like that. I fell asleep early, slept like 11 hours. And today I can't really wake up. So I come to the airport to meet Heather, and I'm just groggy and tired. I thought, you know what? I want to do something. I want to do something fun today. I want to just, I don't know, shock the world or whatever. So I showed Heather the video clip. We're going to roll it. We are not going to edit it. This is the piece that Terry sent me, and he just left that beginning on because he wanted me to see it. So one more disclaimer warning. If you can't handle inappropriate language, move on, click off, go to another, another video. If you want to see me, real life, real world, launching ground school, where I was at in life, stick around and watch the video. The point is, whatever you're struggling with in life, you know, helicopter training is tough. That's what we talk about every day during coffee with Kenny. We talk about the struggles. We talk about the problems people have. We talk about the hurdles. You have to get over. These hurdles could be anything in life. I had a lot of life struggles in that moment. As I was building online ground school, I had a vision, I had a dream, and I knew what I wanted to do. Seven years later, online ground school has.

Been a pretty big success.

In this video you say you know the term I use? I don't know. I'm having a blast. I'm having a blast. Seven years later, we freaking love this. Heather and I come to work every day and we, oh my God, we just have so much frickin fun here.

Do we not?

Very lucky. We have a freaking blast. So again we're gonna roll the video. We'll be back to wrap up. Here you go. If you can't handle the language, click off now. Don't watch video. So let's roll it.

Power's on. One, two, three. Testing the mic, see how it sounds. Terry's walking along, moving the camera, blah, blah, blah. I'm trying to get pumped up and record because I'm really frustrated and I really don't want to do this, but I need to because I got to because I'm a broke motherfucker. Got shitloads and shitloads to do. I work my ass off for nothing. I'm broke as fucking hell. I'm behind on every fucking payment there is. The airport manager just fucking paid my rent so I wouldn't get kicked out. And I gotta go and screw it up with my girlfriend too, who's back home because I'm a jackass. Yeah, okay, we're on.

Alright, gonna do my little thing.

Get pumped up, get excited. Get pumped up, get excited. Get pumped up, get excited. Get pumped up, get excited. How about if I even go back and just kind of walk around the back of the aircraft.

Okay, let's do this.

Yo, yo, what's up, Terry? Hey.

Alright, there you go. Day 150 Coffee with Kenny again. Wanted to have some fun. You can see, you know, I don't know, I enjoyed watching this morning. It's fun to see. Hey, I'm still doing a hell of a video with an instrument in the background. This one's even prettier. I don't know. Mine that I owned was pretty. Was pretty neat too. But you know, our surroundings are a little different, our equipment's a little bit different. But what I do on a daily basis really isn't that much different. We just don't normally share the foul language with you. I try to keep it clean for 10 years. I've tried to keep really clean videos and today we just wanted to share. So if you'd like some more authentic helicopter training, sign up for helicopter Langronsko. Promise. We don't use a lot of filthy language. Might let a, you know, a cuss word slip here or there once in a while. But 10 years I've done pretty good. And of all these struggles, I will mention this, I do talk about this. I had, you know, we all have struggles in life. Prior to ground school, one of the reasons I learned to fly helicopters is because my mom, I lost my mom in my early 20s from Lou Gehrig's disease. And that was a five year battle.

And it was a really horrible thing.

And I went through depression after that. But because of the counseling and things I went through and the self help motivational tapes I watched is one reason I learned to fly helicopters. So I took something bad, which was the death of my mother and turned it into something good. And I talk just briefly about that in here. Talk about my dad a little bit. So Helicopter Checkride is a little bit about me in the first chapter about my life struggles. Launching ground school was, you know, as you saw in the video, was a struggle. Shortly after that I lost my dad within six months of launching around school. So a lot of things happen along the way and we all have things we struggle with, we all have struggles in life.
