 You two, what's up? It's all right, man, it's a good day. Sun's out, 60 degrees. We're gonna talk crazy shit today, man. One of the biggest risks of my life. One of the biggest unknowns. Hands off, I got no clue what I'm doing. As always, I'm taking you on the journey. We're gonna take a trip in Sacramento and a trip down Mike's brain today, but first we gotta get legs. So I haven't weighed myself today, but diet went pretty good. Considering the Super Bowl was this weekend, I didn't do all that. I had chicken thigh. So I'm gonna squat, deadlift, light legs, and then me and Seabass are gonna take you on an adventure, man. Give this thing a thumbs up. Comment below the biggest risk you've ever taken in your life and let's see if you're even in the ballpark of mind. Bigger chat is, I guess, entrepreneurship. And that's really what I wanna chat with you all guys about. It seems really trendy and it seems really cool to be an entrepreneur and invest and build your own path and create your own products and create your own content. And don't get me wrong, I think it's cool, but I think it's a little bit glorified on the internet, right? You're not just gonna wake up, grind, murder, kill, create a YouTube video and become a millionaire and have Playboy models and Lamborghinis in your driveway. So for me, it's something I fell into because my ADHD didn't allow me to go to college. I tried and I was a good student. I had a 3.7, I think I was smart and I could study, but it just drove me wild. I wanna rip my skin off in class. So I dropped out. And even before that, I maybe told the story a couple of times, but maybe not super in-depth. On my first job, I was in seventh grade and I guess you'd call it problem solving. So I was on the committee for the dances. We'd do a Halloween dance or whatever for the junior highs in the area. And I was on the committee to make the Halloween one. It was me and my boy Chris, one of my best friends. And maybe other people, but. And we were in there and you gotta hire the DJ and get the decorations and get the snacks and bop, beep, boop, bop, send out the invitations. But the DJ costs like 1500 bucks or something, right? For a four-hour kids dance. And we hired them, we looked up the reviews or whatever. We got them there. And then afterwards, I think we did a debrief from the dance and me and my buddy and all the kids thought the DJ sucked. And we're like, we paid this cat 1500 bucks. And I went to my teacher, me and Chris, said, all right, what if we DJ the next one and you just pay us 500 bucks? But we're gonna play the slappers and we're gonna, the kids are gonna have a good time. And from that day on for the next six years, I began DJing weddings, dances, junior high, high school, anything I could in the area. Couple house parties that people pay us for, for a Christmas and birthdays. Me and my friends started asking for lights and fog machines and DJ equipment and speakers instead of gifts. And I basically, I guess, became an entrepreneur then. But this, for the first time in my life, I spent a large chunk of money and a little bit of energy. But I'm opening a place that I have no knowledge of. I'm opening a place that I'm gonna have little to do with the day-to-day. And that's fucking scary. Cause every failure I've made or every success I've made has always been because my decisions and what I do. And then I can look back and adjust or I could keep going or I could quit or I could flip the script or I could pivot. This one, the day-to-day is off me. And I'm putting a chunk of change into a spot that is an adventure. And so the risk goes even higher. Any entrepreneurship, what they don't talk to you about online is what? 90 plus percent of businesses fail in the first two years. If you are one of the whatever, five or 10% to make it, how many of those people are making the money that you think you're gonna make? And that's all entrepreneurs and all businesses. It's not as cool as you think. You're stressed all the time, you gotta do jobs, you don't wanna do all the time. Me and Seabass are picking up blood all fucking weekend at this meet. You know, there's shit that people don't talk about. And I don't film it, cause I don't want pity. I'm not gonna post y'all like gym issues and I'm plunging a fucking toilet and picking up blood and yelling at kids all day for breaking shit. Like that ain't fun. And I don't wanna exploit our members. That's just normal day stuff. And I don't wanna pat on the back for that either. That's what I signed up for. This business we're opening is a new genre, a new world. We're gonna meet the guy behind the ideas and hopefully I can feed him some ideas and help when I can. A little bit more money and a little bit more riskier. Libby O'Saw. Brunch, party, weekend party, daytime party, food, a little bit of drinks, which is in my style but I do love food and I do love community. We're right next to the King Stadium and we'll hopefully be opening up Q2 of 2023. My dude Nick's taking the reins. He's the leader in all this. We'll chat and you'll guys learn to know him in the vlogs a little bit. We just wanted to give you a teaser. So I guess a restaurant tour, which I never thought. I never wanted, I never thought. But this is like a big project. So we'll show you the square foot. We wanna kinda show you before and after. We don't wanna leak too much right now. But it's gonna be dope. It's gonna be dope. A little bit more construction to do. A little bit more planning to do. And I'm just trying to give tips where I can because again, I've never run a restaurant. I'm just an idea guy and a problem solver but branding, marketing, content. So I'm hoping where I can. But I think it'd be cool. So if you're in Sacramento, maybe we'll figure something out where you drop my name and get the hookup. I don't know yet, but we're gonna try to do shit like that. Help you all. Because without y'all, I couldn't do this. And now I guess I'll own a pancake. It is upper class though. I'm joking but it's gonna be like a nice spot. It's just gonna be a nice spot. So here we go. Although I was just an employee at Slingshot, it felt very entrepreneurial. Although my money wasn't on the line, my time and energy was, I was the first employee ever there. And the company had only been around a year when I started. So this is kind of the only world I know. But the restaurateur world, the bar world, the night scene world, I know nothing. And again, my money's just kind of up for grabsies. I'm gonna help as much as I can into the areas and departments that I know, right? Marketing, maybe apparel merch, et cetera, et cetera. I know nothing about food. I know how to cook my own dinner. I know nothing about promoting nightclub shit. But hopefully it's just a cool adventure and I'll be able to tag you guys in. We're gonna eat post-workout meals there as a team. Maybe have team meetings there. I don't plan on being at the parties but I'm sure we'll get some clips just to show you guys. And again, if you're in SAC, we're a couple months out but I'm gonna find ways to support you all through this. So if you're in SAC, maybe you can get a little discount, no promises, but I'm gonna try it. I'm gonna see what I can do. I appreciate you guys. Morning after coming Q2 2023 Sacramento, California. 3sb.co, as always, clothes available. This tea is literally my favorite from the drop and it's up right now. I think we have most sizes left, but quantity is low. So check that out. If you're in Sacramento, man, Thirst Street Barbell, you know where to find me. You know where to find us. And I'm gonna hit the road. So we over me maybe a part of something bigger yourself always driven by culture and community. So I'm like, I'm out.
