He's got the bar going, Chris Riley's here, Peter Bell's on his way, Dave Donatelli just walked in, so it's an amazing, amazing crew. And I would like to introduce you to Tyler Osborn, son of Patrick Osborn, the famous Patrick Osborn Tyler. Great to meet you, thanks for coming. Great to meet you, nice to meet you. So tell us about yourself, you're a sophomore in high school. Yes. Where, what high school you go to? I go to Boston Latin School. Oh, Boston Latin, wow, that's impressive. Yeah, the top, top school in Massachusetts. And what's your favorite subject? I like math right now. Math, that was a math major in school. And we have to, we're required to take Latin, so I like that too, I like that too. Ah, okay, Veritas, baby. So, okay, so what are you into? Like you're, first of all, Gen Z, right? That's Gen Z, so what do you think of millennials? They're kind of, you guys, the Gen Z is like goof on the millennials. A little bit, a little bit. Because they're all like staged, aren't they? They're like, you know what I mean by that? I feel like there's a front to it, you know? Yeah, I feel like there's a little act going on. You're kind of taking over the world now. Yeah. Okay, so what are you into? Are you into sports, are you into gaming? Yeah, I like sports. I play lacrosse and golf right now. What position in lacrosse? Mid-fielder, mid-fielder. Wow, a lot of running. A lot of running, a lot of running. Okay, but that's the best position, right? It's the best part, it's the best part. You're on the golf team as well? Yeah, yeah, just finished up the season, so. Okay, do you play? Yeah, yeah, I play a lot. I actually start on varsity. You do, congratulations, that's amazing. My business partner, John Furrier, was just down at the SAS Open last weekend. I don't know if you saw it on TV, it was amazing. He played in the Pro Am. Oh, wow. He played with Patrick Harrington, and then he played another day with Justin Leonard. Wow. So yeah, so that's pretty cool. Yeah, that is really cool. So obviously you have a handicap. Tell me about your golf handicap. Right now I play off an eight. So, not bad, not great, but hopefully I'm gonna get a lot better. What's your strength on the course? Is you hit your big hitter? My short game is good. Oh really, okay, that's where the swings are, right? Yeah, definitely. Really, you can putt well. Does your dad play golf? Yeah. You smoke him? Yeah. I don't want to say that on an air, but yeah, yeah. All right, so La Crosse or golf, what would you pick? I mean, I'm kind of like a I love lamp kind of guy. So I mean, whatever I'm playing right now is really what I like. How about tech? What's hot in tech these days for young people? Yeah. I mean, you use tech all the time, right? You survive COVID with horrible tech, like Zoom. The big thing right now is for probably kids my age is probably social media, definitely number one. Getting through, getting marketing and there's definitely a lot of business opportunities to be had through social media, especially for the younger generation. And also the research of AI, AI programs such as like open AI, chat GBT. There's really a lot. You use chat GBT? I mean, yeah, not for school work, because that's obviously. Because you're not supposed to? Not supposed to, not supposed to. I wonder what you think about this Tyler. My feeling is they should teach how to prompt chat GBT. Like because that's a skill, I think the better you can prompt, the more productive and effective you're gonna be. But you're saying the teachers at Boston Latin like no go. They're out of it. So is it honor system? Or they can, they have chat GBT sniffers. They have detectors. So you really have to stay away from them. So what do you use it for? It's usually like, I haven't started it yet, but a lot of kids are starting to use it for, just like, I mean, it's being used a lot in business, for especially for young people. Resume writing. Resume writing, yeah, that's definitely one of them. Maybe ideation. Very good at writing prompts, getting you on the right track. So I use it a lot for even just like templates for projects and stuff like that. But I think it could really have a big impact. What's your favorite social platform? I don't know. I would say, what do you say? You want X on Twitter? A little bit. I don't really post on Twitter. So not so much Twitter. So TikTok, Instagram. TikTok's big in my generation. Instagram. No, Facebook, no. No Facebook, right? That's for old folks. No, Facebook, no. And millennials. Yeah, yeah. Those millennials. Yeah, I'm into Instagram. And TikTok. Yeah, TikTok too. LinkedIn? A little bit. My dad has it, so. Yeah, because that's the business trend, right? So you want to get into business after school? Yeah, I think so. I think so. Are you looking at colleges yet or? Not really. Next year is when it's gonna start really wrapping up. So, yeah. What was COVID like for you? So that was, what, three years ago, so. Yeah, so I was in like middle school. It was, the last house was sixth grade, beginning of seventh grade. So the high school I go to begins in seventh grade. So it was kind of a big challenge because I got into the school and then the next day they said the year's gonna be basically canceled. So I had a fully virtual school for about six months. And then in around April or March of 2021, I went back hybrid. So I was in two days a week out three. I remember Latin was one of the earlier schools, I think, to push that, push that back. So, but you're lucky that you weren't, you know, like my son was a junior. So he missed his prom, right? So that was a bummer. And, you know, a lot of, you know, when you're in that sort of upper echelon of high school, you know, freshman year is a little tough, the transition, sophomore year, you know, you're getting your legs, plus you play varsity sports. So you're one of the cool kids, you know, but then by the time you're a junior senior, you're like, hey, you're top of the mountain. But so that got taken away. So you're lucky in that regard. Yeah, yeah, it definitely, it definitely helps that it was that early. Cause I know there was a lot of, I know a lot of kids were a little older than me from varsities, from sports. They said it was just tough, especially that junior year is a pivotal year for academics to get into college, to have that taken away. It's tough, yeah. So what do you hope to accomplish this year and for the rest of your high school career? I mean, I just need to keep the grades up, try to get into a good college. You got good grades? Yeah, I'm pretty good. Yeah, you crush it? Yeah, yeah. Okay, we'll keep crushing it. And that's awesome. Thank you. Thanks so much for coming. Thanks for having me on. You're very welcome. All right, thank you. Keep it right there. I'm going to accelerate or the exec event in Massachusetts. Right back.
