 You think it's a game, you don't take nothing serious, that's what's wrong with you. Where you from G? Man, I'm from Atlanta man. From Atlanta? Real Atlanta nigga, what part? A little bit of everywhere. The whole Atlanta? Yeah, I grew up a little bit around everywhere. That what's up? Yeah. You grew up a little bit over here? Grow up a little bit over there? Yeah. Swing your childhood in the wild hood? Then move to a nice neighborhood? Then move to the birds? Then back to the city? Hell yeah. Yeah. You know, ghetto shit. Hey man, welcome back. I don't know if you heard, but the black market is open. Right now. Look, you might be walking through the black market, you might be shopping, you might have a whole cart full of shit and you may need a snack. Yeah. You may need something just to get you up out of the black market. You know what I'm saying? You might just need something real quick while you're about to go. Or you might be watching your hell. You get what I'm saying? You might be going natural. Yep. You want to get back to the fruits and the nuts and the berries of the thing. Yep. So you got to have yourself at ease right here, man. We got my man, Ryan Scott in here on the black market with us today. Now this shit crazy. Now we always try to find some cool, interesting people to talk to on here. This is definitely cool and interesting. My boy selling pistachio nuts. Yes, sir. Bro, you get into this, this bit, this industry, bro. Okay. I cut a long story short. I wrote this, I wrote something down. My mom told me to write something down when I was like 15 years old. He was in a homeless shelter. And I played baseball growing up. So my goal was to always own my own nut company. And I ended up going to New Mexico. Really? Really, bro? Yeah. This was always the goal? Yeah, for sure. You got to always think outside the box. You're right. You know what I'm saying? I don't want to be no baseball player or no rapper, you know, play hoops or nothing like that. So I always had to, I know I had to think outside the box to, you know, make something better for myself. What was the first batch like? Man, I was trapping them things out of a zip lock bag. Really? Super trashy. Why did you pick pistachios out of all those things? Ended up meeting somebody in New Mexico. And so when my grandmother passed, she told me, man, get, you know, pretty much get your shit together. And so I ended up talking to him and he was like, you know, what you trying to do? And I told her I want to do my own nut company. I got to try it out. Let me remember what? Yeah, they hit you. I am cutting you off. I'm just like, bro, I might what go on. He done hold. Got to. Got to. And so he asked me what I wanted to do and I told him I want to own my own nut company. I think I'm going to just try it out. And this man ain't like, we talked over time and he told me, hey, I own a pistachio farm. You know what I'm saying? I mean, kind of aligned itself, especially after my grandmother passed. So, you know, you end up taking the good with the bad and shit. That's how I started. End up flying out there, seeing certain things and coming back, trapping them, trapping stuff out with the, with the zip lock bag on old national. For real? Yeah. And so I came up for the hit. Yeah, they hit. And so I just had to learn like about the industry. Yeah. Learned about the industry. He put you up. Yeah. You know, taught me a lot of stuff. Like, man, just how they grow, how you grow them. And I ain't know it take like 15 years to grow a tree, like to fully harvest the tree. And you don't start sending pistachios to like five to eight years. So these motherfuckers are eight years old? Damn, yeah. Man, I don't fucking care. They take like real little peppermint. That's the go. You come up with your own flavor. My bad. Excuse me, bro. Yeah. For real. Appreciate it, man. So that's how, you know, a long story short. I'm sure you put a little inspiration on the story. Yeah. I don't really like it, honestly. I think I thought it was corny. But, you know, sometimes you got to tell your story. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? You got different spotlight. Oh, yeah. You got different. Yeah. I want to, you know, showcase, you know, certain people. That's what we're doing over here. Yeah. Rebellion harvest. So how did you, how did you transfer your idea into bringing it into the physical world? Man, really just writing stuff down and, you know, end up designing everything by myself. Didn't know where the hell I was going. I ain't know how to really, I ain't know nothing. I ain't going to hold you. I just, you just got to start, really. And I seen people, you know, people clown, you know, people clown you when you begin and when you start. And so I just really just kept, somebody said, man, you know, you got something. Just keep going. And so that's what I started doing and ended up finding, you know, figuring things out on how to design my own packaging. And I wanted to be taken. I wanted to, you know, someone to take me serious. So that was like the first thing. So when some people tell me like your packaging is good, you know what I'm saying? That mean a lot to me. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Your packaging is like the initial when somebody see you. So I wanted to be taken serious. Did you have to go and negotiate with the dude from New Mexico like a drug deal? How many pistachios do you want? Yeah. It was definitely a negotiation, but he really shown me love and teaching me about the business so I can get my own form. So that's. What's been your most successful part of your business? Like as far as when was your, when did you have your most success? When I was able to get into some stores and I had to sell myself because ain't nobody going to take you serious. You know what I'm saying? At least started now because people skeptical. So what I ended up doing is I give you 10 bags and if you don't sell, I never come back. But if you sell out, we got to do business. And that's how we end up getting into a lot of stores. And I'm in one store in Baltimore. So we kind of growing a little bit slowly, but surely we growing. Yeah. Yeah. That's that's dope, man. Stay independent. Don't let them get all your shit. Yeah. Because these right here, this alone going to take you over the top. Wait till the hood chicks find out you got a stash of your lemon pepper whip. It's over with it. That's the three magic words around it. Limit, pepper, wet. Yeah. If you see these anywhere you go, make sure you pick these up and support black owned business. What's the name of the store in Baltimore? New. I forgot the name. I'm not going to hold you. What's the name of that store? They can watch this and be like, come on. Come on. Nah, I got a spray. Come on. Say the name. Is there any way? York Road Mini Mart. It's called what? York Road Mini Mart. Yeah. So if you live anywhere near the York Road Mini Mart, please go out and support. These are your only three flavors right now? I got jalapeno. I got ghost pepper and I got exotic mystery. So we sold out of those. This by Du Sage right here. Yeah, try it out. What does it taste like? Ergobah Du? Something like that. Something like that. Might take deep to the crib. It's like a sage rosemary, basil, sea salt. You know what I'm saying? Man. I'm taking that pistachio's hand to be your favorite at some point in your life. Actually it wasn't. I played baseball so like sunflower seeds. Sunflower seeds. That's exactly where it started. Yeah, that's why I wanted to actually start over. Are you going to venture out into some sunflower seeds? Yeah, for sure. You got to find a dude in New Mexico with the sunflower seeds now. Yeah, I will. The same dude don't have them? No. You need to talk to him. I know. Because he might be mad at me like, so you couldn't talk to me about your sunflower seeds. How much sunflower seeds do you want? I'm pretty sure he knows something. Yeah. But I think the goal right now is to do one thing at a time. Right. Yeah. But definitely, you know, move up, vertically integrate the business. So that's the goal. We're having one on Shark Tank with him yet? Nah. Nah, yeah. Don't go. They're going to try to buy the business. These are hit though, bro. What can we do to help you push this? Shit. I'm bottom off, I guess. I mean, I'm going to buy it. I'm going to buy whatever. But man, whatever. Just being on this show. Initially it's a big step. That's why I was giving it to Ashley. I don't know if you heard me like, is there anywhere they can order online? RebellionHarvest.com, yeah. Bro, we looking forward to seeing you really, because you really might just take over where the motherfucking Mr. Plannons left off, bro. That's the goal. We're on the, you know, shot with us. Yeah. Black on. I think that was also the goal too. Like, it's never, you know, you never really see black people in spaces like this. You know what I'm saying? Exactly. Because I'm about to kick idea to you too. I might sound far-fetched right now, because I know you're doing pistachios right now, but I feel like the streets need a trail mix, bro. You're right. They do. That's next. Put some together. Yeah. We sure. Throw some pistachios in there. Yeah. Mix that with a little sunflower seeds. Yeah. Throw some raisins in there for razzle thousand. Yeah. You feel me? Some cashews. Yeah. Whole almonds. Yeah. You feel me? Little walnuts in there or something? Yeah. And then we got to do, we got to do some. Got to throw the pretzels in there too. I don't fuck with them. That could be an option. Yeah. Then we got to do some vegan ones for the people who got the nut allergy. Chico can't eat the shit. I don't know. Yeah. I was going to say, I don't really do the vegan. I know, but bro, just come on. We're thinking forward. Yeah, you got to. We might have to fly over to Brazil and get some sunflower seeds. You feel me? Yeah. We're going to figure it out together. Yeah, yeah. We're going to figure it out together. I'm excited again. Man, let them know where they can find you on social media. You know, place your order on there and it should be there in like two, three days. How many people part of your operation? Probably like six total. Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah, we're about to start ordering about three cases a week. Say it less. I'm in a month. Say it less. That'll just be way too many pistachios. Yeah. Say it less. You got a honey roasted?

Put my little pep back. Hey, tell your mom to take the chicken in that fish at the freezer. Exactly. So you been getting a lot of support from the hood, though, man? Yeah, just like, you know, when I first started, I ain't know how people was gonna like perceive it. Right. But shit, everybody fuck with them. Somebody was in the back end. So. That's what I'm saying, bro. You gotta plug back in with the project. Because, like, this is the type of shit we grew up on, bro. Yeah. Like, overgrown on them house and shit like that.
