 What's going on everybody my name is Jimmy you probably know me as John Boy or you just know my voice and you've never seen my face which is kind of the reason I want to do this because we just had a lot of really exciting announcements at John Boy media and I want to fill you guys in on those in case you missed them also for people that just watch breakdowns here and there and don't know the story of me or the company at all let's rewind and I'll do that real quick in 2017 I was working as an event videographer and editor basically I was just doing weddings and then in my spare time I did a lot of creative stuff where I was making videos all that's led to me doing Yankees content I did Yankees content 2017 just a hobby I started the podcast once I got to like a thousand followers on Twitter and some people watched it in episode five I was in Denver my buddy Jake was there I roped him in I said you're doing this podcast with me we're talking yanks bam I put my face out there I did a post game recaps underneath every single Yankees game I just went for it that led to a full-time opportunity my buddy who is in the investing world he texted me he said hey if I give you 25 grand to quit your job and do this full-time what would you do I said I would gladly accept the money and then I'd ask your advice on what the hell am I supposed to do that's what I did I quit my job I lived off 25 grand but I didn't even live off that because I was too scared to spend a dime of it on myself so I basically just lived off nothing because as soon as that money went away the whole dream kind of went away in my brain halfway through 2018 Jake searching for a job we both know that he's not going to put his head into anything else he joins full-time so now we got a two-man company we got another 25 grand investment we're living off of that I had 300 dollars to spend after rent I don't even think Jake was clearing rent we were just scared to buy coffee but doing as much content as we could trying to build this company grow an audience build a community and we did in 2019 we grew past the Yankees and did talking baseball the breakdowns as you guys know blew up so then we got to start hiring people we were going to go get investors to help get us to the next level before we even asked anyone investors started coming to us they saw what we were doing they saw the potential and we had an investor group join early 2020 we had Trevor Plouffe to the company he joins talking baseball an ex big leaguer he's been fantastic he has his own show on the network sequence we bring in gm files we have xgm's talking on our show we have football shows we have other baseball shows we're doing a lot john boy and jake radio and watching baggage are blowing up talking baseball and talking yanks are consistently in the top five baseball podcast everything's going well investment group re-ups in 2020 announcement that came out this week we're funded we have good funding we're very excited about it announcement number two and this is what i want to tell everyone chris rose is joining john boy media he's going to have a podcast twice a week with six other active baseball players glass now may gilito brawls rohas bradley they're all joining they're going to be on his show and we're making a new youtube channel it's going to be called john boy media baseball very simple as you can tell we don't get too creative with our names here talking yanks john boy media baseball it's going to have the chris rose rotation sequence is going to go there gm files is going to go there and a new show that's going to go there as well if you're a baseball fan i truly believe this is going to be the premier destination for baseball content you're going to have xgms you're going to have x players you're going to have like media darlings and you're going to have tons of active players along with me doing some videos every now and then jake doing some videos every now and then talking baseball will stay as it is talking yanks will stay as it is john boy media baseball youtube is going to go they're all going to have their own podcast feeds as well this channel will stay breakdowns i'm going to keep doing other sports i'm going to do baseball keep doing other sports we're going to keep doing the weekly dumb on mondays we're going to keep doing the trivia show on this channel and whatever else we think of whatever else you guys allow us and want us to do we'll test it out and we'll have some fun so that's kind of a very very quick summation of i took a hobby it's now a media company with funding and real talent and a real audience because of you guys you're that audience i love you dearly i appreciate you i love the community we've built let's keep growing go subscribe to every other channel if you're interested in what that channel has to offer
