00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:47.799
Webberber. Everyone is annoying except me. I'm perfect. No one else.

10
00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:53.439
You're all annoying. You're setting your
ways and you're opinionated. You're arrogant,

11
00:00:53.799 --> 00:00:56.679
you're often wrong, never in doubt. You watch the news. You're a

12
00:00:56.719 --> 00:01:00.320
world leader. Now. Now,
don't get me wrong. If I don't

13
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:03.399
know you, I don't care.
If I don't interact with you, so

14
00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:07.040
be it. Enjoy yourself. It's
just that it seems every human I talk

15
00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:14.920
to or talks to me annoying.
You never notice in every walk of life

16
00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:19.000
every endeavor, every phone call,
every encounter, every service person, every

17
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:25.920
TV comment to every news correspondent,
actor, actress, podcaster. They're being

18
00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:32.799
interviewed annoying. Uber drivers, cab
drivers, pedestrians are annoying. The worst

19
00:01:33.159 --> 00:01:37.280
in New York City, the bicycles. They're all freaking annoying. Used to

20
00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:38.879
be able to look left and see
where the cars were coming, all right,

21
00:01:40.040 --> 00:01:42.120
Now you got to look like three
heads. You have to look behind

22
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:46.920
you everywhere. They're so freaking annoying. Don't get me started. Everyone you

23
00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:51.560
work with is annoying. They're unhappy. They're waiting for anyone to offend them

24
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:55.200
so they could step up and be
outraged. They're angry. They have to

25
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:59.480
be there. I can't take it. The world has become annoying. Let's

26
00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:04.680
see who's annoying. This week,
Fouci went from saint to sinner. By

27
00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:07.360
the way, if you listen to
this rhetoric, this stuff, COVID was

28
00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:13.199
a figment of our imagination. Now
it was nothing so easy to say that.

29
00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:16.520
Now got hit with a plague was
spreading rapidly the world. The US

30
00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:22.039
government how to figure out what to
do anyway. This week, Fouci went

31
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:28.479
from Saint to Sinner annoying? And
then, oh, my goodness, have

32
00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:32.919
you watched our president? Have you
listened to Kamala? Have you listened to

33
00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:38.080
the Hunter stuff? Jean Pierre and
what everything she has to say is crazy

34
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:45.319
crazy? Everything he's going on is
normal, is crazy speaking crazy? Ravan

35
00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:50.080
F. Kennedy Junior this week has
either got the facts right or he's insane.

36
00:02:50.479 --> 00:02:55.360
How annoying? Everyone is annoying?
How in the world could anyone criticize

37
00:02:55.400 --> 00:03:00.400
put America first? And they do
what country does and put itself first?

38
00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:07.159
What business doesn't put itself first.
I've never met a supplier, a retailer,

39
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:10.800
a manufacturer in my career who gave
me favorable terms at their expense.

40
00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:16.319
Every penny is hard fought over.
It's annoying that we have this attitude.

41
00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:23.479
Everything I heard this week was annoying. That became tonight's show. Everyone is

42
00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:30.400
annoying now speaking annoying, my lawyer, my co host, and my son

43
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:35.319
Jesse Webber. Hey, Jess,
you're calling me annoying. Now, No,

44
00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:38.479
I just brought you in at the
appropriate time. Don't be annoying.

45
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:42.199
What would you say if I said
you were annoying? How would you feel

46
00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:46.439
all right, don't get your back
up, mister Jesse Webber. It's not

47
00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:49.639
about us. Okay, Well,
what a second you want to talk about

48
00:03:49.639 --> 00:03:53.680
annoying? Mister? I can't make
a decision on anything you don't think that's

49
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:57.000
annoying? And what does that mean? By the way, I don't make

50
00:03:57.039 --> 00:04:00.400
decisions. I bet you can't even
give me an example. I don't think

51
00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:01.759
you want to go there. Why
don't we just move on? No,

52
00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:05.199
you made him statement. Give me
an example. You can't. All right,

53
00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:10.039
I'm sure the audience already knows that
you have trouble making decisions, but

54
00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:13.240
this is a recent one. I
asked you last week what time do you

55
00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:15.079
want to play golf this weekend?
And you said to me, quote,

56
00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:19.439
you decide anytime works for me.
So I made a tea time of nine

57
00:04:19.560 --> 00:04:23.920
fifteen in the morning and you write
me that's too early. It is,

58
00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:27.959
okay? So then what do I
do? I make eleven forty five and

59
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:30.800
then you write me that's too late. You want to talk about annoying.

60
00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:35.000
That's annoying. For the purpose of
this discussion, let's get into what got

61
00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:39.600
me thinking about this right now?
Your wife? Wait, where is this

62
00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:44.560
going? Now? I don't like
this. Your wife was incredibly annoying the

63
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:47.959
other night at Dinna. Okay,
first you attack me, now you attack

64
00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:51.439
my wife. I didn't attack you. You're annoying. I just mentioned I

65
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:55.639
brought you in. You assumed its
attacking here. I can't wait to hear

66
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:58.519
this. You share it to the
whole audience. How my wife is annoying?

67
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:00.319
I just hope she's not listening live
tonight. That's what I hope.

68
00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:04.439
Too bad. I don't debate style
with your new missus, let alone anyone

69
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:08.800
in the world for that matter.
What are you talking about Friday night?

70
00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:12.439
What you do? I hosted Dan
Abrams show on News Nation. I love

71
00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:14.560
that. That's one of my favorite
things to do. I thought it went

72
00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:17.879
absolutely terrific. You get good feedback, excellent feedback. People love the show.

73
00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:19.839
They said to me, they want
me to do it more often.

74
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:24.759
I love seeing you on that show
major news network. I'm loving it.

75
00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:27.680
You're there in the beginning and developing. I love it. And you look

76
00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:32.639
so professional on screen. Okay,
where we were going with this? Yeah,

77
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:38.000
your hair is long, it was
silky. It looked amazing. You

78
00:05:38.079 --> 00:05:41.160
look different from all those other guys. You just have your own look,

79
00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:44.160
and I told you that at Dinah. I appreciate that. But are we

80
00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:47.600
talking about my hair now? No, Conceptionally you said it was too long,

81
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:50.480
you needed a haircut. I do, I do. I think it's

82
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:55.000
a little outrageous. But you said
I don't know what I'm talking about.

83
00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:59.680
That's what you said exactly. And
then the new wife pops in and said,

84
00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:02.560
I like Jesse with shorter hair.
She's entitled to her opinion, not

85
00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:06.920
one with discussing the business, or
if that business fashion in this case,

86
00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:12.680
always in fashion, to ceo,
jobs, to books, radio podcast.

87
00:06:12.759 --> 00:06:16.079
I don't debate packaging yourself with anyone, let alone your wife. Well,

88
00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:19.199
I will tell you people in the
industry have said my hair is too long,

89
00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:21.920
and they said it's better short.
She's not wrong. If you want

90
00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:26.480
to talk about business, a lot
of people say anchor should have shorter hair.

91
00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:29.720
You know, if Chris Como says
it to you, Dan Abrams says

92
00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:31.360
it to you, you know what. I'll listen, but I won't listen

93
00:06:31.399 --> 00:06:33.839
to anybody else. Okay, even
if they say it, I'm going to

94
00:06:33.959 --> 00:06:38.199
argue with you. You have a
look. It was amazing, You're so

95
00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:41.920
handsome with the blue eyes. You
just look great. And here we are

96
00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:46.600
debating at dinner with your wife.
All right, I'll tell you what.

97
00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:51.040
In the interest of let's call it
common sense, happy wife, happy life.

98
00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:54.279
So let's move on from this.
Where did you get the idea for

99
00:06:54.360 --> 00:07:00.439
tonight's show from your wife? At
dinner? She's annoying? Ever think that

100
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:03.360
maybe you're annoying? No? All
right, okay, now that that's settled,

101
00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:06.279
the truth be known. She said, everyone's annoying, and that got

102
00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:11.360
me thinking, and it got me
into this week, which drove me crazy.

103
00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:15.240
Someone, not just your wife,
who shall remain nameless, has been

104
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:20.560
chasing me to meet them and me, I'm not agreeing to set a meeting.

105
00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:25.680
I've been avoiding humans as most people
these days. It got heated,

106
00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:29.079
started yelling at me. I couldn't
believe this person's yelling at me. He

107
00:07:29.160 --> 00:07:31.160
called to mind the show we did
in March. I sent it to them

108
00:07:31.279 --> 00:07:35.120
just to make a point. And
here's what it said on the show.

109
00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:38.480
I opened up with this. I
loved it. They'll try and pin me

110
00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:41.560
down. Don't even think about trying
to make plans with me. I won't

111
00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:45.879
meet you anywhere at any time.
You have better chance bumping into me.

112
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:47.160
I'm gonna point in my life that
I want to be free for you to

113
00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:49.240
do what I want, with whom
I want, when I want. I

114
00:07:49.279 --> 00:07:54.600
can't be forced, threatened, pushed
into anything. I refuse to make decisions.

115
00:07:54.639 --> 00:07:58.279
It's impossible for me to make up
my mind. I wasn't always this

116
00:07:58.319 --> 00:08:01.519
way, but this is the way
I am now. So this person trying

117
00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:03.720
to pin me down and set up
a business meeting, I just couldn't do

118
00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:07.120
it. And that got me thinking. And from that on, between your

119
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:11.959
wife saying everybody's annoying and this person
trying to tie me down, boom,

120
00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:15.600
that's where the show came from.
You know, they would look at you

121
00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:20.360
and say you're annoying because they can't
commit you to anything. Everyone's annoying except

122
00:08:20.439 --> 00:08:24.240
me, of course, only you
are perfect. Don't be annoying. We'll

123
00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:26.319
take a break, we'll come back, and we'll explore this subject in great

124
00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:31.160
detailing. Now any of you turn
away, You're annoying anyone who's not enjoying

125
00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:35.799
this. You're annoying anyone who doesn't
see the benefit of staying tune to always

126
00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:39.759
in fashion, even through the commercials, which I think are interesting. You're

127
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:45.960
annoying, take a break back in
a minute. Always in fashion. As

134
00:09:13.720 --> 00:09:18.320
one, love to shop. I
love going around and seeing what's happening and

135
00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:22.519
what catches my attention, what would
make me feel good to wear now.

136
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:24.759
I don't wear the women's wear obviously, but I can appreciate it and may

137
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:28.279
look amazing. If you want to
look right, you want to have clothes

138
00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:33.200
that fits you well. You want
to look like you're wearing something that's very

expensive, that's exclusive for you and

handbags and the shoes. If one wear

142
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:52.919
men's clothes on like my appreciation of
women's clothes. I'm a modern guy.

143
00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:56.720
I want to look current, I
want to look the way I want to

144
00:09:56.720 --> 00:10:00.279
feel. I go out at night, I'm in black and Carlagafeld is my

145
00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:03.799
buddy. Calls are great. They
fit great, and they have little tweaks

146
00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:05.759
and touches, whether it's a stripe
on the sleeve or button at the neck

147
00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:11.519
or on the shoulder. There's a
lot of details that go into Carlagafeld because

148
00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:15.240
he's always been, he always had
been one of the world's great designers,

149
00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:18.120
and this legacy and goes on and
on. I can't speak enough about it

150
00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:22.039
except to say to you, you
want to feel good about yourself. You

151
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:24.840
want to know that you're dressing properly. You want to close that fits you

152
00:10:24.919 --> 00:10:31.080
well. Carl Lagafeld Paris at Macy's
or Karlgafel dot com. My favorite brand

153
00:10:31.960 --> 00:10:37.039
has always been ISOD. My company
at one time bought that brand. The

154
00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:39.879
CEO of the company handed it to
me and said, you better make it

155
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:43.840
work. And I put everything in
my career to make EYESOD work and I

156
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:48.159
fell in love with that brand and
to this day it is one of the

157
00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:54.279
most exciting endeavors I've ever got involved
with. ISOD is an incredibly strong golf

158
00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:58.960
brand. If you play golf,
if you play tennis. For that man,

159
00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:05.840
how they make a great polo shirts? I mean great, They're fit

160
00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:11.519
perfect. The material is unique because
it's a PK fabric that waffle weave,

161
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:16.600
you see, and it's made of
a blend of cotton and microfiber that allows

162
00:11:16.679 --> 00:11:22.639
you to stretch. And very often
they are treated with solo protection as well,

163
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:28.159
so they stretch, they're comfortable,
and they breathe well. And one

164
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:31.440
thing about ISA they always fit.
They'll never tug on you. You put

165
00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:35.320
it in your waist, they'll fit
you great. The colors, patterns are

166
00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:39.000
sensational. Now I will also tell
you ISOD makes great shorts and great golf

167
00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:41.879
pants. You're a golfer and you
want to look good. You don't want

168
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:45.919
to have to think about how do
I look. You want to think about

169
00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:48.759
how you play, not how you
feel. ISOD is the brand for you.

170
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:52.080
I know I was there when it
was created. The strategy behind that

171
00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:56.919
brand is brilliant. It's one of
my favorite brands. Well I talk about

172
00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:00.639
I should tell you about the Man's
Sports, where Isod wasn't enough being a

173
00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:05.039
golf brand, it wasn't enough being
just great polo shirts with logos, without

174
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:11.799
logos, Incredible brands in story and
history. Isaad makes salt weather programs.

175
00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:20.120
They have great printed woven shirts,
short sleeves that look excellent with colors,

176
00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:24.440
excellent with shorts, excellent with cotton
pants, of which they also make this

177
00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:30.840
whole salt order relax line from Isaad, whether it be felice, cotton sweaters,

178
00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:35.960
nitpolos, woven shirts and pants of
a range of colors and fabrics that

179
00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:39.200
are perfect for a guy wants to
go casually in the spring and summer of

180
00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:48.080
this year and he is. The
thing Isod is affordable. Everyone listening to

181
00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:54.200
me talk about this brand can afford
to buy it and know that there are

182
00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:58.000
a lot of other brands that also
have a look like isode. Although I

183
00:12:58.039 --> 00:13:01.440
don't believe it's fun as eyes is. The brand has a lot of energy

184
00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:05.679
in it, but at the price
points no one can compete. You can

185
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:11.960
find eyes that at your leading retails
and online at eyesod dot com. Talk

00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:20.559
and I help you by telling you
if you were eyesod, you're gonna

188
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:24.559
look great. Welcome back to Always
in Fashion. Here's your host, Mark

189
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:33.840
Webber. This week tough week.
Everyone's annoying. Everybody drives me crazy.

190
00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:41.960
Everyone is annoying. But nothing in
this country is more annoying than the political

191
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:46.759
situation we find ourselves in. We
can't agree on anything, and the only

192
00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:54.759
thing that seems to get people excited
is Donald Trump. You either hate them

193
00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:58.480
or you love them, And by
the way, yeah, that's people on

194
00:13:58.519 --> 00:14:01.559
both sides, and then they get
excited to hate him or they get excited

195
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:05.399
to love him. Yeah, it's
crazy. Let's say, Karnan talk about

196
00:14:05.440 --> 00:14:09.399
Trump, and let's talk about annoying. Jesse, you find an annoying that

197
00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:15.360
everyone was trying to indict Trump.
I hate the idea that our former president,

198
00:14:15.559 --> 00:14:20.639
current frontrunner for the Republican nomination is
facing this. I think it's terrible

199
00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:24.600
for the country. But at the
same token, what he did is really

200
00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:28.360
bad. Can't just ignore it.
He can't just say this is all political.

201
00:14:28.519 --> 00:14:31.039
And I could get into all the
reasons why I don't think it's political.

202
00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:35.039
Which indictment are we talking about right
now? Forget about New York?

203
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:39.399
Okay, let's just talk about the
documents investigation for a second. Okay,

204
00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:43.519
So, first of all, this
guy brings this charges against him, And

205
00:14:43.559 --> 00:14:48.559
it wasn't that Trump had documents.
That wasn't the bad part. It's that

206
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:52.440
he refused to turn them over.
It's that he had his lawyers lie on

207
00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:56.559
his behalf. Big freaking deal.
We got politicians who's still holding documents.

208
00:14:56.960 --> 00:15:01.080
So they rated his house in Moral
Lago and they took his stuff. End

209
00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:03.039
of subject. They got it.
It's a crime. What do you want

210
00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:05.720
me to say? It's not a
crime, which is the crime that they

211
00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:09.879
had to raid him, or the
fact that he had the documents? Spiden

212
00:15:09.919 --> 00:15:13.600
has documents, but he never refused
to turn him back over. But they

213
00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:16.000
got him. See, you want
to put him in prison. I don't

214
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:18.720
want our former president in prison.
I don't want the optics of it.

215
00:15:18.759 --> 00:15:20.000
But what do you want me to
say? Just turn a blind eye.

216
00:15:20.279 --> 00:15:24.120
I don't want you to say anything. I'm saying what I want to say.

217
00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:26.720
Like them, hate him, love
him, whatever the case may be.

218
00:15:26.039 --> 00:15:28.600
They wanted the documents he tried to
hold them. They got him,

219
00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:31.840
end of subject. If this was
anyone else, would they be going to

220
00:15:31.919 --> 00:15:35.240
trial on this? Would they be
indicted? No way you say that.

221
00:15:35.279 --> 00:15:39.080
But I don't know, okay.
In the history of the United States,

222
00:15:39.159 --> 00:15:41.679
what are we two hundred and forty
years old? Does anyone ever president ever

223
00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:46.200
been indicted multiple times? Has anyone
ever got in trouble for holding documents?

224
00:15:46.519 --> 00:15:48.080
I mean, I don't want to
get into it. I don't know what

225
00:15:48.120 --> 00:15:54.559
happened to thirty three thousand documents Hillary
Clinton had? She destroyed them. Where

226
00:15:54.679 --> 00:15:58.080
is the marching her off to indictment? They looked into that and they said

227
00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:00.639
that there was no criminal intent behind
You could disagree or not, but at

228
00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:03.759
least they gave an answer. What
happened to the washing and the bleaching and

229
00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:07.159
the hammers and this and that?
It seems a little excessive. Don't you

230
00:16:07.279 --> 00:16:11.320
think that was the name of a
software that was used. It wasn't like

231
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:15.000
it was actually whitewashing. There's a
lot of miscommunication about what actually happened there.

232
00:16:15.240 --> 00:16:19.639
You can't just erase things from your
computer that easy. They don't disappear,

233
00:16:21.159 --> 00:16:23.080
okay, And why erase them?
It is annoying But what you can't

234
00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:26.799
do is just say, oh,
just forget about it the next one,

235
00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:30.840
okay, whatever summer it was twenty
twenty one where all the riding was going

236
00:16:30.879 --> 00:16:36.200
on, stores being burnt down,
people being hurt or killed. People got

237
00:16:36.240 --> 00:16:40.240
arrested for that? Oh please,
they did. They got arrested and charged.

238
00:16:40.559 --> 00:16:42.679
Please. Did we arrest the mayor
of Portland for allowing it to go

239
00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:47.240
on and them occupy the city?
Did we arrest them, did we indict

240
00:16:47.360 --> 00:16:49.080
them? Did we do anything to
fight back? Or we just allowed it

241
00:16:49.120 --> 00:16:52.360
to go on? You could say
that's a dereliction of duty, but it's

242
00:16:52.360 --> 00:16:56.279
not like he did something illegal dereliction
of duties. So were they removed from

243
00:16:56.279 --> 00:17:00.039
office? Was there a discussion of
a grand jury? By the way,

244
00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:04.480
there have been high profile Democrats who
have been criminally charged, who have been

245
00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:08.400
investigated by the FBI. So it's
not like it's just all against people on

246
00:17:08.440 --> 00:17:11.720
the right or conservatives of Republicans.
It doesn't work that way. Look,

247
00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:15.160
there's a lot of problems in government, it's sure, But I'm talking right

248
00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:19.160
now about rioters in these cities,
things going crazy. Do you remember what

249
00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:22.119
it was like in New York?
Every single store had to be boarded up

250
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:26.640
and locked down. I was living
through it. It was terrible. It

251
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:30.039
was like mad Max. I hated
every second of it. Okay, So

252
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:33.319
was the mayor convicted? Was he
put under trial? No? No,

253
00:17:33.359 --> 00:17:36.880
you're you're saying his defense should be
Well, a lot of people there were

254
00:17:37.000 --> 00:17:40.200
all those riots, so Trump should
be we should just forget about what he

255
00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:42.240
did. It doesn't work so simple. Look, will he be found guilty?

256
00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:45.720
I have no idea, but I'll
tell you. You can't ignore what

257
00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:51.079
the facts are. He had an
aid of his deliberately moved boxes to hide

258
00:17:51.119 --> 00:17:53.359
it from the government. That's what
he's accused of doing. He could defend

259
00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:56.960
himself say it didn't happen. But
that's a big that's a serious allegation.

260
00:17:57.559 --> 00:18:02.880
They got all the documents. This
is so annoying. What can I say?

261
00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:04.759
And you know, people accuse me
of liking Trump. This is not

262
00:18:04.880 --> 00:18:08.920
about liking Trump. It's about watching
what's going on, and the optics of

263
00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:15.680
it are terrible. Everyone who is
a Trump feels he's being unfairly treated.

264
00:18:15.799 --> 00:18:18.480
Wait a minute, if they come
out tomorrow and they want to bring charges

265
00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:22.359
against Biden for documents, you'd have
no issue with it. If they came

266
00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:29.039
out and said we want to consider
indicting him for holding documents far back is

267
00:18:29.039 --> 00:18:32.680
when he was a senator, when
he was a vice president, etc,

268
00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:36.599
Etc. Etc. Why not.
Don't get me wrong, I don't like

269
00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:37.839
it. I don't like them doing
it to Trump. I wouldn't like them

270
00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:41.839
doing it to Biden. I'd believe
they ought to change the rules when it

271
00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:45.559
comes to documents and say that if
you're going to talk about it being treason,

272
00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:48.480
then you ought to have some very
clear understanding of what needs to be

273
00:18:48.559 --> 00:18:52.160
done or don't. But I wouldn't
start now. If you got to start

274
00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:53.680
on Trump, then you have to
handle all of them. It wasn't that

275
00:18:53.720 --> 00:18:57.240
he had the documents, it was
holding onto them when he shouldn't, and

276
00:18:57.240 --> 00:19:03.319
it was obstructing an investigation. Oh
blowney, So what I'm just making the

277
00:19:03.359 --> 00:19:07.400
point. And then in terms of
January six and these other charges, the

278
00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:14.519
idea was is that he was instrumental
in having fake electors being inserted, trying

279
00:19:14.519 --> 00:19:18.559
to have him be the president,
having Mike Pennce step in to make sure

280
00:19:18.599 --> 00:19:22.359
the votes weren't certified. These are
serious allegations here about what happened, Okay,

281
00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:26.960
and if he really believed as president
in the United States, the election

282
00:19:26.119 --> 00:19:30.519
was rigged. It wasn't fair,
there was wrongdoing going on, and trying

283
00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:33.640
to figure it out. I have
no problem with that. So your defense

284
00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:38.319
was that he thought the election was
stolen. He had every right to investigate,

285
00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:41.720
He had every right to see what
was going on. Everybody was telling

286
00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:47.720
him categorically, there's nothing here.
There's no election fraud. Every one of

287
00:19:47.720 --> 00:19:51.400
his cases was losing. He just
didn't want to accept it. Yeah.

288
00:19:51.480 --> 00:19:56.079
Yeah, yeah. When you're an
executive and you're a CEO, you get

289
00:19:56.079 --> 00:19:59.759
input from all kinds of people before
you make a decisions. But in the

290
00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:03.279
and you believe what you believe,
and if you are good at what you

291
00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:08.079
do, you're going to pursue your
beliefs and enforce your will if you can,

292
00:20:08.519 --> 00:20:11.359
until you are comfortable that you get
the right answer. You want to

293
00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:15.279
play that game. Okay, So
you head of a big public company,

294
00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:18.079
all right, the share price is
in the tubes, but you're gonna go

295
00:20:18.119 --> 00:20:19.400
out and say no, no,
no, no, no, no,

296
00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:23.400
it's great. No, that's different. No, because he lost the election

297
00:20:23.480 --> 00:20:26.559
and didn't accept it and then goes
out and say the numbers are false.

298
00:20:26.559 --> 00:20:30.319
Wall Street's false. I mean,
like that's what you're saying. It's the

299
00:20:30.359 --> 00:20:33.519
same thing. No, if you
take it at face value. He believed

300
00:20:33.519 --> 00:20:37.880
that the election was rigged, and
therefore, as American as the president,

301
00:20:38.000 --> 00:20:41.599
he was going to find out one
way or another if it was, and

302
00:20:41.640 --> 00:20:45.759
he was going to push conjole and
see whether he can get an answer.

303
00:20:45.039 --> 00:20:49.119
You ask me about a ceo.
If his stock is tanking, if his

304
00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:55.079
company's not doing well, he has
an obligation to search his own soul and

305
00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:59.880
ask himself was it because of him? Does he have the answers to fix

306
00:20:59.920 --> 00:21:03.920
it? And if not, step
down. But you have to accept that

307
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:07.039
the stock price isn't doing well.
He didn't even accept that he lost.

308
00:21:07.279 --> 00:21:10.640
He lived in reality where he thought
he won in the election was stolen,

309
00:21:10.680 --> 00:21:12.519
even there was no evidence to back
it up. Then put him in a

310
00:21:12.640 --> 00:21:17.200
sane asylum, not try him for
treason. I want to talk about this

311
00:21:17.279 --> 00:21:21.200
a little bit more. Okay,
this week Trump had a town hall with

312
00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:23.039
Sean Hannity. Did you get to
see it? I didn't. Actually.

313
00:21:23.079 --> 00:21:29.920
Now, look, Sean Hannity is
a Trump advocate supporter. I don't know

314
00:21:29.920 --> 00:21:33.720
what you would call it, but
you can clearly know that he believes everything

315
00:21:33.759 --> 00:21:37.960
that Trump does is right, and
he's really all Trump all the way.

316
00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:41.759
Okay, I get it. And
their audience was probably one hundred percent Trump

317
00:21:41.960 --> 00:21:45.279
bias. I get it. Those
are town halls that are rigged because you

318
00:21:45.319 --> 00:21:48.079
don't have enough of the other side. It's one way. It kind of

319
00:21:48.119 --> 00:21:52.559
reminds me of another party. But
I don't want to go there. He

320
00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:57.359
was so lucid, and when he
talks about issues, hate him. Go

321
00:21:57.640 --> 00:22:03.119
right ahead. There's so much stuff
that comes out of his mouth that I

322
00:22:03.200 --> 00:22:06.799
hate. He makes me cringe.
There's so many things I think make me

323
00:22:06.920 --> 00:22:10.960
uncomfortable. I wish I could whisper
his ear and Shay, shut the hell

324
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:12.680
up. Don't you know how to
talk? Don't you know how to defend

325
00:22:12.720 --> 00:22:18.400
yourself? But he has something Mark
Levin, he said to him, as

326
00:22:18.480 --> 00:22:25.960
the president, you had an outstanding
presidency. But it doesn't appear so because

327
00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:30.359
those people in Washington. You rock
the boat, you shook up the system.

328
00:22:30.400 --> 00:22:33.440
You said what no one else would
say, and it didn't work,

329
00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:36.440
and they will not let it stand. But over the test of time,

330
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:41.720
your history will prove that you have
the right answers. And That's where I'm

331
00:22:41.759 --> 00:22:47.440
at On the subject of annoying.
I believed in his policies. Now you

332
00:22:47.559 --> 00:22:52.680
might think Trump is despicable. I
get it, But let's change the subject

333
00:22:53.039 --> 00:22:56.480
slightly. Is that okay with you? Unless you want to say something,

334
00:22:56.480 --> 00:22:59.559
I want to change it slightly.
By the way, this has nothing to

335
00:22:59.599 --> 00:23:03.920
do with his policies. Whether he
did great things for the country and made

336
00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:08.359
us stronger. That's a perfectly fine, reasonable conversation to have about politics.

337
00:23:08.359 --> 00:23:12.319
And I don't disagree with you.
Tell me one Democratic person who stood up

338
00:23:12.359 --> 00:23:17.000
and said Trump's ideas many of them
are great. Oh this is not saying

339
00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:21.640
Democrats are good, not at all. They're terrible. They're worse things than

340
00:23:21.759 --> 00:23:23.279
even people on the right. That's
not what it is. They're never going

341
00:23:23.319 --> 00:23:26.440
to give Trump credit for anything.
Do you think people have faith in our

342
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:30.359
government right now? Do you think
people have faith in the FBI? Now?

343
00:23:30.519 --> 00:23:33.400
Do you think people have faith in
the Supreme Court? Now? Do

344
00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:37.839
you think the institutions of our country
are protected and respected the way they should

345
00:23:37.880 --> 00:23:42.440
be? Well? No, because
everybody is making arguments based on emotion without

346
00:23:42.519 --> 00:23:47.720
fact. If they listen carefully and
without saying, oh my goodness, the

347
00:23:47.759 --> 00:23:51.519
FBI is corrupt, Oh my goodness. The Supreme Court is corrupt without actually

348
00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:55.480
looking at each decision and what they've
done. Of course, that's why people

349
00:23:55.480 --> 00:23:57.240
don't have faith. But that's why
it's a good thing to have an honest

350
00:23:57.279 --> 00:24:03.759
conversation about what's really happened. And
I rest my case. Everyone is annoying.

351
00:24:04.279 --> 00:24:08.519
Now before I leave anywhere, I
just want to change the dialogue a

352
00:24:08.519 --> 00:24:15.720
little bit. Cocaine in the White
House. Is there anyone who believes that

353
00:24:15.799 --> 00:24:21.359
there's not a camera and there's not
fingerprints associated with that cocaine? Now,

354
00:24:21.480 --> 00:24:23.359
I have no idea how it got
there. I have no idea whose it

355
00:24:23.440 --> 00:24:29.400
is. I do not believe it's
Hunter Biden. But how convenient is it?

356
00:24:29.400 --> 00:24:34.039
It's open hunting season on Hunter Biden
and be talking about open hunting season.

357
00:24:34.880 --> 00:24:40.279
You know, it drives me crazy
when these people talk. There's politicians

358
00:24:40.359 --> 00:24:44.400
get up. The American people won't
stand for that. How do they speak

359
00:24:44.440 --> 00:24:48.279
for the American people when the American
people are three hundred million plus all over

360
00:24:48.319 --> 00:24:52.039
the country. We know it's divided. It drives me crazy. I'm loving

361
00:24:52.119 --> 00:24:56.319
this say the American people are in
favor of our war with Ukraine? Are

362
00:24:56.319 --> 00:25:00.119
we in favor of this war?
Are we voting in the United States here

363
00:25:00.119 --> 00:25:06.240
that we want this war to continue? Was there a way to avoid it?

364
00:25:06.440 --> 00:25:10.119
Was there another way to conduct it
or end it? Where is it

365
00:25:10.200 --> 00:25:15.079
saying the American people are okay that
guess has not seen anything below four dollars

366
00:25:15.079 --> 00:25:18.279
and twenty cents and who knows how
long. Now, don't get me wrong,

367
00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:22.400
it's a noble effort to try and
keep Ukraine free. Where are the

368
00:25:22.400 --> 00:25:26.039
Europeans? Where is their money?
Why are we involved? Why is it

369
00:25:26.119 --> 00:25:30.359
our war? I don't believe we
should have Russia as our enemy. Have

370
00:25:30.480 --> 00:25:34.759
said it all along on the subject
of this inflation? Is there an American

371
00:25:36.039 --> 00:25:41.160
that these politicians are speaking for us? Americans understand inflation. We understand why

372
00:25:41.160 --> 00:25:45.960
everything is through the roof. We
understand why there's supply issues. We understand

373
00:25:45.119 --> 00:25:51.039
the American people know the American people
are understanding this. I never heard anyone

374
00:25:51.119 --> 00:25:55.960
say that is you're paying that fair
share. Nope, it's our debt,

375
00:25:55.960 --> 00:26:00.400
our, bombs, death and destruction. I don't think the American people lear

376
00:26:00.440 --> 00:26:04.079
in favor of this. Biden one
annoying. I have something I want to

377
00:26:04.119 --> 00:26:10.160
point out. Are we forgetting that
in order to avoid either a two cent

378
00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:14.519
or ten cent gas hike when it's
already over foot dollars a gallon. That

379
00:26:14.599 --> 00:26:21.039
the Biden administration. President Biden depleted
our national oil reserves. They used up

380
00:26:21.039 --> 00:26:26.400
on going us our oil. I
heard the other day, and it's been

381
00:26:26.440 --> 00:26:33.680
reported by many reliable sources that we're
running out of bullets, that the United

382
00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:38.559
States doesn't have enough bullets to wage
war. God forbid it should happen because

383
00:26:40.160 --> 00:26:44.200
we've put them all in the Ukraine. Forget the death and destruction. So

384
00:26:44.240 --> 00:26:48.559
we depleted our oil reserves. Now
we depleted our bullet supply and bomb supply.

385
00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:55.880
Is this crazy? We're allowing illegal
immigrants to flood the country at crazy

386
00:26:56.000 --> 00:27:00.319
rates. We're parking them in cities
with no place to go. We have

387
00:27:00.799 --> 00:27:04.920
some governors sending immigrants to other cities, sanctuary cities. This is a disaster.

388
00:27:06.720 --> 00:27:11.359
Our education is declining where I think
twenty third in the world now we

389
00:27:11.480 --> 00:27:15.799
used to be number one or two. So I have a question. If

390
00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:22.960
there was a spy in the United
States trying to influence policy or ruin the

391
00:27:23.039 --> 00:27:30.920
country, could he do a better
job than this administration is doing. And

392
00:27:30.079 --> 00:27:34.559
all I have to ask you,
and they're trying Trump for treason. This

393
00:27:34.759 --> 00:27:40.480
is annoying. I'll take a break
back in a minute. Always in Fashion

394
00:27:41.079 --> 00:27:45.759
spent a lifetime of my career building
the Van Yusen brand, and I am

395
00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:51.640
so pleased that they're back with us
now talking about suits, men, we're

396
00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:55.799
dressing up again and it's become cool
to wear a suit. Suits can be

397
00:27:55.799 --> 00:28:00.319
one on multiplicasions in multiple ways.
You could wear a suit for only to

398
00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:03.240
go out at night or to an
event, to wear a suit to the

399
00:28:03.279 --> 00:28:07.720
office with or without a tie.
If you look closely, now fashion trends

400
00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:12.279
suits are being warm with turtlenecks or
mocknecks. The choices are endless, and

401
00:28:12.519 --> 00:28:18.200
every one of them looks right.
You could really really look the part.

402
00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:22.119
I believe that packaging yourself this is
important. Does the products you package and

403
00:28:22.240 --> 00:28:26.279
wearing a suit is one of those
things that make men look their best.

404
00:28:26.759 --> 00:28:32.400
Venues and invented a new idea.
It's called the cool flex suit. It's

405
00:28:32.400 --> 00:28:37.400
been engineered with stretched technology, giving
you the most comfortable fit and mobility.

406
00:28:37.599 --> 00:28:41.160
It's wrinkle resistant fabric, it's cool
moisture wicking. It makes it perfect for

407
00:28:41.279 --> 00:28:47.160
all occasions. As we discussed just
now, this new style of looking shop

408
00:28:47.440 --> 00:28:52.599
while feeling cool and comfortable is amazing, and I'm so excited that the venusing

409
00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:59.039
company is involved in this new technology
and is embracing the whole idea of dressing

410
00:28:59.119 --> 00:29:02.240
up. Let's not forget venues and
made its name with dress shirts. It's

411
00:29:02.359 --> 00:29:07.519
only proper that the suit business follows
strongly in its way. You can find

412
00:29:07.640 --> 00:29:12.319
venues in cool flex Men's stretched suits
at JC Penny or online at jcpenny dot

413
00:29:12.359 --> 00:29:17.519
com. Guys, they're great.
You should go look at them. Welcome

414
00:29:17.559 --> 00:29:22.160
back to Always in Fashion. Here's
your host, Mark Webber. Tonight,

415
00:29:22.200 --> 00:29:29.319
i'm talking annoying to me. Everyone's
annoying except May of course, but everyone's

416
00:29:29.319 --> 00:29:33.279
annoying. I want to talk a
little bit about a business example. One

417
00:29:33.319 --> 00:29:38.400
of my expertise is licensing. It's
the concept of renting your name to a

418
00:29:38.480 --> 00:29:45.240
company who is experienced in a particular
industry. Know how they use your name,

419
00:29:45.960 --> 00:29:48.480
and they expand your brand. So, for instance, if I believed

420
00:29:48.599 --> 00:29:53.119
sunglasses would be good for my brand, If I can find a great sunglass

421
00:29:53.200 --> 00:29:59.079
maker that would put my brand on
sunglasses and they would make the right quality

422
00:29:59.079 --> 00:30:02.839
in the right distribute, you shouldn't
it with enhance the value of my company

423
00:30:03.079 --> 00:30:06.839
and pay me money because I'm renting
the brand. I do this, and

424
00:30:06.880 --> 00:30:08.920
I make a deal, and I've
done them all over the world in every

425
00:30:08.920 --> 00:30:15.079
place, And you have to be
lucky, like you are with life.

426
00:30:15.359 --> 00:30:18.359
You have to be lucky. Sometimes
you meet the right people, sometimes you

427
00:30:18.359 --> 00:30:22.640
don't. And licensing it's very much
the same. You have to be lucky

428
00:30:22.680 --> 00:30:26.839
with the people you meet and the
companies they run, because licensing is a

429
00:30:26.839 --> 00:30:32.119
two edged sword. On the blunt
edge, they're paying you money like you're

430
00:30:32.480 --> 00:30:34.960
a bank. You're paying you money
like you have a building and they're borrowing

431
00:30:36.240 --> 00:30:38.200
real estate and they're paying you for
it. It's simple. You don't have

432
00:30:38.240 --> 00:30:42.200
the risk. You're not designing,
you're not taking the inventory, you're not

433
00:30:42.319 --> 00:30:45.599
chipping, you don't have the accounts
payable. It's easy. You're making money.

434
00:30:45.640 --> 00:30:49.920
On the sharp side of the sword, decide you can cut you You've

435
00:30:51.000 --> 00:30:55.400
lent them your brand, and very
often they take shortcuts, maybe make lesser

436
00:30:55.519 --> 00:30:59.960
quality to make more margin, maybe
sell to people they're not supposed to say.

437
00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:03.000
Because when you have a brand,
when you think about it, you

438
00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:07.160
are who you hang with. It's
like you as an individual, if you

439
00:31:07.440 --> 00:31:11.079
stay with smart friends you're in a
smart crowd. If you stay with people

440
00:31:11.119 --> 00:31:15.119
who are honest and have integrity,
you too will have honest and integrity.

441
00:31:15.160 --> 00:31:18.599
You are who you live with and
who you hang with. But in our

442
00:31:18.640 --> 00:31:23.160
business, in fashion and a lot
of business, a Ferrari, you buy

443
00:31:23.160 --> 00:31:27.599
a Ferrari, you sign a document
that you're not going to resell it.

444
00:31:27.640 --> 00:31:32.799
Ferrari doesn't believe in reselling vehicles.
You buy a Ferrari, they make you

445
00:31:32.839 --> 00:31:36.480
sign a one or two year agreement
that if you choose to sell the automobile,

446
00:31:36.880 --> 00:31:40.599
you have to sell it back to
them because they don't want the people

447
00:31:40.640 --> 00:31:45.440
reselling it and bringing down the image
or gouging consumers because they're on a waiting

448
00:31:45.440 --> 00:31:48.119
list. They got a car and
they're going to turn it over. Very

449
00:31:48.319 --> 00:31:52.799
very very real. Rolls Royce just
incorporated the same process. You do it,

450
00:31:52.000 --> 00:31:56.519
you're blacklisted forever. You can never
buy a Rolls Royce or a Ferrari

451
00:31:56.559 --> 00:32:00.720
in this case direct from the real
and in the or luxury business, same

452
00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:06.680
thing with watches, there's a gray
market. You sell gray market for Rolex

453
00:32:06.720 --> 00:32:10.799
catches, you'll never get a watch
again. So in fashion and luxury there

454
00:32:10.960 --> 00:32:16.200
is a balance between what we would
call regular price and off price. You

455
00:32:16.279 --> 00:32:22.759
know regular prices freestanding stores on Fifth
Avenue, but off rice might be considered

456
00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:30.079
outlet stores or TJ Max or Roth
Stores or Burlington. And while many companies

457
00:32:30.279 --> 00:32:34.519
sell into this channel, you'll never
find luxury goods there. But by many

458
00:32:34.519 --> 00:32:37.240
companies will sell into this channel.
They have surplus, they have to get

459
00:32:37.319 --> 00:32:40.480
rid of it, they'll sell it
there. Some companies go even further and

460
00:32:40.559 --> 00:32:45.599
make goods for the channel, make
products directly to the channel to earn more

461
00:32:45.640 --> 00:32:49.880
money. So be it. You
monitor it. In a licensey agreement,

462
00:32:49.960 --> 00:32:53.160
you have terms and conditions for the
amount that you could sell in the off

463
00:32:53.200 --> 00:32:58.200
price channel. You have agreements on
what that price will be. If you

464
00:32:58.279 --> 00:33:01.160
sell it, and if God forbid
you go over it, you're going to

465
00:33:01.200 --> 00:33:05.599
pay a penalty or you're going to
lose the license. And this is monitored

466
00:33:05.720 --> 00:33:09.839
very closely by companies everywhere. In
my case, I have a great story

467
00:33:09.880 --> 00:33:14.880
to tell you. You want to
talk annoying tonight. I had a wonderful

468
00:33:14.960 --> 00:33:17.960
guy I did business within Europe.
I'm not going to mention his name right

469
00:33:19.000 --> 00:33:22.519
now because he's a friend, but
he could be annoying. And I've told

470
00:33:22.559 --> 00:33:27.119
you great stories about him at other
times, and I supported him. And

471
00:33:27.279 --> 00:33:30.079
one day the head of licensing comes
to me. We're going through our financial

472
00:33:30.079 --> 00:33:35.880
projections at this time, and she
said, something is not making sense with

473
00:33:35.920 --> 00:33:39.039
this guy's particular company. I said, what is it? She said,

474
00:33:39.079 --> 00:33:46.000
we know all of his customers and
he's supposed to be behind in sales,

475
00:33:46.559 --> 00:33:51.119
and in fact he's way ahead.
So I said, well, what's wrong

476
00:33:51.160 --> 00:33:54.440
with that? She's wearing his way
ahead? Doesn't make sense. She said,

477
00:33:54.519 --> 00:34:00.559
there's one door, a name of
which we don't recognize, an address

478
00:34:00.640 --> 00:34:06.759
that we've checked out isn't really a
retail store. It's not Harrod's in London,

479
00:34:06.799 --> 00:34:09.079
it's not Selfridges, it's not Harvey
Nichols, it's not the house of

480
00:34:09.159 --> 00:34:15.480
Frasier, it's not at Deneminghams.
And it's doing ten million dollars. You

481
00:34:15.559 --> 00:34:20.400
know how much business you have to
do to sell ten million dollars. And

482
00:34:20.440 --> 00:34:23.119
it's a door we can't find it. I said, I don't understand.

483
00:34:23.199 --> 00:34:28.320
She said, we think he's selling
to discounters and he's not admitting it.

484
00:34:29.320 --> 00:34:31.079
I said, he wouldn't do that
to us, He wouldn't risk the license.

485
00:34:31.119 --> 00:34:34.800
He certainly wouldn't do it to me. He's a friend. Said,

486
00:34:34.800 --> 00:34:37.159
well, I can't explain it,
can you. I said no, but

487
00:34:37.239 --> 00:34:40.719
I will check. So I called
him. I said, there's something going

488
00:34:40.760 --> 00:34:45.880
on here. We have a problem. We found shipments to this particular door

489
00:34:46.000 --> 00:34:51.079
that is doing ten million dollars and
it makes no sense. Who are they?

490
00:34:51.880 --> 00:34:54.480
And he said, it's impossible.
I don't know what that is.

491
00:34:54.599 --> 00:34:58.400
We got it from your information.
Is it can't impossible. Let me check

492
00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:01.599
it out. So a week goes
by here nothing, Two weeks go by.

493
00:35:01.719 --> 00:35:05.559
I forgot about it, actually,
but I got reminded by my head

494
00:35:05.599 --> 00:35:07.719
of licensing, and I'm on my
way to London. And I go to

495
00:35:07.800 --> 00:35:10.599
London and I hang out with this
guy and I go through his product.

496
00:35:10.679 --> 00:35:14.960
I approved all this product before he
shipped in. It was great product,

497
00:35:15.079 --> 00:35:17.400
really great design. I was very
excited about it, and I listed his

498
00:35:17.480 --> 00:35:21.880
distribution. I walked the stores,
and we're all the best stores in London

499
00:35:21.920 --> 00:35:24.719
at that particular trip, and I
asked them about the door. I said,

500
00:35:24.719 --> 00:35:29.239
look, I'm still checking. It
might have been someone diverted the goods.

501
00:35:29.280 --> 00:35:31.559
I don't know that now. What
is diverted? Somebody buys it sells

502
00:35:31.599 --> 00:35:35.800
it to someone else. Like I
said about Ferrari or Rolls Roy and they

503
00:35:35.800 --> 00:35:37.760
take the shipments. I said,
but the problem is it looks like you're

504
00:35:37.800 --> 00:35:42.760
selling them direct. Can't be mark. Something's not right. So that night

505
00:35:42.800 --> 00:35:46.239
I was flying home to New York
and for whatever reasons, I got the

506
00:35:46.360 --> 00:35:50.119
lad I had to be with Thomas
Pink, one of the other brands I

507
00:35:50.239 --> 00:35:52.239
ran the following day. It was
an emergency they needed to see, so

508
00:35:52.280 --> 00:35:57.480
I extended my day one more day
and I was sleep over in London another

509
00:35:57.559 --> 00:36:01.239
night, and because I was free
up having dinner with this guy, I

510
00:36:01.280 --> 00:36:04.039
said, you know, I'm not
going do you want to hang out?

511
00:36:04.079 --> 00:36:06.159
He says, you know what,
I have dinner with another guy. Well,

512
00:36:06.159 --> 00:36:07.599
why don't you come along. You'll
have a great time. So I'm

513
00:36:07.639 --> 00:36:10.239
sitting there and having dinner. I
meet him. They're friends. They're very

514
00:36:10.239 --> 00:36:15.480
friendly and apparently this guy was a
very successful business man. And as he

515
00:36:15.599 --> 00:36:19.840
talked, he was explaining to me
he's really in the warehouse and distribution business.

516
00:36:20.679 --> 00:36:22.880
And I said, oh, really, where do you have He says,

517
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:28.280
I have a huge warehouse, million
five square feet outside London. I

518
00:36:28.360 --> 00:36:30.599
turn over a lot of product and
I'm in the business of selling clothesouts.

519
00:36:31.159 --> 00:36:34.599
Really and who do you sell them
all to? He says to everyone,

520
00:36:34.639 --> 00:36:37.880
I have a huge clothes out business. My business is in excess of one

521
00:36:37.960 --> 00:36:40.239
hundred billion dollars a year. And
I looked at it. I said,

522
00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:45.519
do you do a business with you
know? I pointed to my friend there.

523
00:36:45.719 --> 00:36:47.679
I said sure, I said,
watching your biggest business with him?

524
00:36:47.840 --> 00:36:54.400
Decan Why. So he got caught
and he looked at his friend like his

525
00:36:54.440 --> 00:36:59.159
friend was an idiot. But the
friend was being honest. And the point

526
00:36:59.320 --> 00:37:02.760
is, when I say everyone's annoying, that's a great story. Here's a

527
00:37:02.800 --> 00:37:06.840
guy I trust, I like,
I vouch for a stand up for.

528
00:37:07.440 --> 00:37:09.239
He tells me that he doesn't know
where his goods are going. This is

529
00:37:09.280 --> 00:37:13.320
a mistake. And sure enough,
here I am sitting with the guy who

530
00:37:13.360 --> 00:37:15.760
bought it from it and I found
out that way, and that was annoying.

531
00:37:15.840 --> 00:37:21.840
I'll take a break back in a
minute. Always in fashion, I've

532
00:37:21.840 --> 00:37:24.039
been shopping for fun lately, and
while I'm out, I always look at

533
00:37:24.079 --> 00:37:28.519
men's and I look at women's what's
going on? And I was particularly interested

534
00:37:28.559 --> 00:37:32.400
in Decam Why because of their sponsorship
of the show. I went downstairs at

535
00:37:32.440 --> 00:37:37.800
Macy's thirty fourth Street, to look
around and I saw Decamy active where And

536
00:37:37.840 --> 00:37:42.199
I promise you, ladies, it
is sensational, from the sports bras to

537
00:37:42.239 --> 00:37:45.960
the crop tops, to the leggings
and the sweats. It really is a

538
00:37:45.119 --> 00:37:52.079
great look. And Decay had begun
as an all American brand dressing casual clothes

539
00:37:52.239 --> 00:37:57.239
engines, and the stuff looks incredible
and right now the colors and the styles

540
00:37:57.599 --> 00:38:00.280
is so exciting that I feel great
about the company. I always do.

541
00:38:00.480 --> 00:38:05.280
I wear the men's who were all
the time. I've had situations where I've

542
00:38:05.320 --> 00:38:08.599
gone to big events and been interviewed
in TV or the radio, and someone

543
00:38:08.639 --> 00:38:12.840
comes up to me the microphone and
like they always do, who you wearing?

544
00:38:13.280 --> 00:38:15.679
And here I am, this big
shot with a big company and they

545
00:38:15.679 --> 00:38:17.559
said, well, I'm wearing a
DKNY and they laugh and say, no,

546
00:38:17.639 --> 00:38:21.239
you're not. Actually have one on
the internet where you could see me.

547
00:38:21.840 --> 00:38:23.199
They asked me what suit I'm wearing, and I say, dec and

548
00:38:23.239 --> 00:38:27.840
why had opened it up and there's
the DKNY label. Great fashion, It

549
00:38:27.920 --> 00:38:31.480
fits well, it looks right.
It's designed to make you comfortable in the

550
00:38:31.519 --> 00:38:34.880
city, goes from day and to
night. You can wear it in the

551
00:38:34.920 --> 00:38:37.599
morning and wear in the afternoon and
you look cool at night as well.

552
00:38:37.639 --> 00:38:39.920
It's great for the office as great
Felisia. But I was talking about the

553
00:38:40.000 --> 00:38:44.599
dcmy active ware. The first time
I really became aware of that. Jesse

554
00:38:44.719 --> 00:38:47.960
and I were up at Sirious Radio. He was doing a job for Serious

555
00:38:49.039 --> 00:38:52.480
He does Dan Abrams show, he
fills in on the Potus network, and

556
00:38:52.519 --> 00:38:55.639
we're in the lobby and this hip
hop group came up. Well, this

557
00:38:55.960 --> 00:39:02.960
really great looking Latinos singer Girl Young
Beautiful. She's wearing a dk and Y

558
00:39:04.079 --> 00:39:07.239
sports bar and I said to myself, this is amazing. Actually went to

559
00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:10.039
Macy's to see it, and I'm
excited about the brand. And I'll tell

560
00:39:10.079 --> 00:39:15.199
you what, ladies, dk Y
always has great fashion for work, always

561
00:39:15.280 --> 00:39:19.880

562
00:39:19.880 --> 00:39:23.199

in particular right now looks sensational and being

563
00:39:23.199 --> 00:39:28.079
that everyone's affleisure in activewear, it's
a great time. Dcm Y go take

564
00:39:28.119 --> 00:39:32.079

00:39:57.280 --> 00:40:00.360
that. I, for one,
love to shop. I love going around

571
00:40:00.400 --> 00:40:04.320
and seeing what's happening and what catches
my attention, what would make me feel

572
00:40:04.639 --> 00:40:07.800
good to wear now. I don't

dot com. Welcome back, Joe
Always in Fashion. Here's your host,

590
00:41:17.119 --> 00:41:24.440
Mark Webber. Hi, I'm really
having fun being annoyed. I find everyone

591
00:41:24.480 --> 00:41:29.920
annoying. No matter what anyone says, it seems to always be annoying.

592
00:41:30.599 --> 00:41:32.039
Now maybe I'm at the point where
just leave me alone. But no,

593
00:41:32.400 --> 00:41:37.519
it's not just that I want to
talk about some annoying things this week.

594
00:41:37.119 --> 00:41:40.800
You ever get on the phone with
some of the cell phone and either they

595
00:41:40.800 --> 00:41:45.519
don't hear you or you don't hear
them well, and you start arguing,

596
00:41:45.559 --> 00:41:47.760
who's the problem? I had that
with your brother this week. There's something

597
00:41:47.760 --> 00:41:51.559
wrong with your phone. How do
you know it's my phone? I'm hearing

598
00:41:51.559 --> 00:41:52.920
you perfectly, it's your phone.
It can't be my phone. Well,

599
00:41:53.159 --> 00:41:55.960
in all honesty, it is your
phone. Because I've had a problem talking

600
00:41:55.960 --> 00:41:59.360
to you as well, So why
don't you say so? Because I knew

601
00:41:59.360 --> 00:42:02.760
you'd be annoying about it. Very
funny, by the way, speaking of

602
00:42:02.760 --> 00:42:06.599
that, you know what the worst
one is is when you're talking to somebody

603
00:42:06.840 --> 00:42:09.119
and you're laying out an important point
and you make your point and then you

604
00:42:09.119 --> 00:42:12.920
don't hear anything because the phone hung
up. You know, it's interesting.

605
00:42:13.000 --> 00:42:17.159
Technology is extraordinary. Go think that
you'll be walking around someday with a computer

606
00:42:17.239 --> 00:42:21.639
in your hand that allows you to
stay connected to everyone in the world,

607
00:42:21.719 --> 00:42:24.880
anywhere in the world. It's amazing. But the truth be known, I've

608
00:42:24.920 --> 00:42:31.599
seen no one invest in the sound
quality of cell phones ever. You never

609
00:42:31.679 --> 00:42:35.199
hear them talking about we did this, we did this, strip them making

610
00:42:35.239 --> 00:42:37.760
the cameras better, but never the
voices. You ever noticed that? Yeah,

611
00:42:37.800 --> 00:42:42.039
it's I think that that's not even
about the phone, that's more about

612
00:42:42.039 --> 00:42:45.920
the phone lines and the connection.
I don't agree with you. I don't

613
00:42:45.920 --> 00:42:49.280
know that they have the best microphones, the best speakers, the best everything.

614
00:42:49.320 --> 00:42:51.719
If they did, they talk about
it. I never heard one cell

615
00:42:51.719 --> 00:42:55.159
phone say our service is better than
anyone, our clarity is better than anyone.

616
00:42:55.599 --> 00:42:58.920
Never, But I'll move on.
I find that annoying. You know

617
00:42:58.920 --> 00:43:01.679
what else I find annoying. I
saw Mission Impossible. Oh, I thought

618
00:43:01.679 --> 00:43:05.000
it was great. What do you
think? Why did you think it was

619
00:43:05.079 --> 00:43:12.159
great? Amazing action, good story, never board adventure Tom Cruise is amazing.

620
00:43:12.559 --> 00:43:15.079
Was it my favorite? Mission Impossible? Maybe not? But I thought

621
00:43:15.079 --> 00:43:19.440
it was very entertaining in a great
time. Okay, I agree with you

622
00:43:19.480 --> 00:43:22.800
on one point. I thought it
was amazing and I had a great time

623
00:43:22.840 --> 00:43:25.440
in that regard. I thought the
women were interesting and they were beautiful,

624
00:43:25.480 --> 00:43:30.400
and they were fun and they had
very very good parts. But here's what

625
00:43:30.519 --> 00:43:35.519
bothered me about the movie. Pretty
much, we've seen all the action before

626
00:43:36.119 --> 00:43:40.079
that whole train thing. We saw
it on Wolverine, we saw it in

627
00:43:40.199 --> 00:43:45.599
Tom Cruise's first movie with the train. It didn't feel new to me.

628
00:43:45.119 --> 00:43:50.280
And then you get to the car
chases. Car chase is a ruin.

629
00:43:50.400 --> 00:43:54.360
Now, there's nothing that goes on
in car chases that hasn't been done before.

630
00:43:54.920 --> 00:44:00.039
It's beautiful, it's fun to watch, but it bothered me that it

631
00:44:00.360 --> 00:44:05.079
seemed like repetitive. Tell me I'm
wrong. What about the jump? The

632
00:44:05.280 --> 00:44:07.840
jump? Big deal? One jump? And you know what bothered me with

633
00:44:07.880 --> 00:44:13.320
the jump? The actual culmination bothered
me because it reminded me of James Bond

634
00:44:13.400 --> 00:44:15.880
movie with either Pierce Press and you
at Jamore. It was too comical.

635
00:44:15.880 --> 00:44:20.599
It wasn't as seriousness I would think
the show deserved. I disagree. I

636
00:44:20.639 --> 00:44:22.559
don't want to give it away.
But he had to figure out a way

637
00:44:22.599 --> 00:44:24.840
how to get somewhere, and it
was pretty thrilling how it happened. And

638
00:44:25.119 --> 00:44:30.360
look, the only criticism I have
is they showed way too much of the

639
00:44:30.480 --> 00:44:34.760
jump and like behind the scenes and
commercials. It took away from it a

640
00:44:34.800 --> 00:44:37.119
little bit, but it still was
amazing to say. You know what else

641
00:44:37.199 --> 00:44:38.840
makes me crazy? Annoying? Well, I want to give one? I

642
00:44:38.920 --> 00:44:43.239
want to give one? Okay,
great? You know what is super annoying

643
00:44:43.639 --> 00:44:47.400
when you're in a store and the
sales associate follows you like they're just all

644
00:44:47.440 --> 00:44:51.159
over you, looking at everything that
you're doing, or like, oh,

645
00:44:51.159 --> 00:44:52.400
that's a good choice. Oh can
I help you with anything? Like just

646
00:44:52.519 --> 00:44:54.920
leave me alone, like back up
a little bit. You don't know how

647
00:44:54.960 --> 00:44:58.239
to blow them off. I said, I'm good right now, thanks,

648
00:44:58.239 --> 00:45:00.920
And then they keep following you like, oh that's a good selection. That

649
00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:02.800
is annoying. You know, it's
also annoying when they clean up. If

650
00:45:02.800 --> 00:45:06.360
you look at it an item and
you pick it up and then you put

651
00:45:06.360 --> 00:45:08.039
it down, you fold it lightly. It's not perfect. Right after you

652
00:45:08.079 --> 00:45:10.800
do it, they fold it.
How annoying is that? That is annoying?

653
00:45:10.880 --> 00:45:14.599
But you know what the most annoying
one for me this week is,

654
00:45:14.639 --> 00:45:17.719
And if that's not considering all the
honking driving into city and in the city,

655
00:45:19.039 --> 00:45:22.079
it's the traffic driving me crazy.
It's so annoying. Not that you

656
00:45:22.119 --> 00:45:27.719
know what really drove me crazy?
TV commercials. Do you know what the

657
00:45:27.760 --> 00:45:32.159
TV commercial other than the five hundred
drugs that are being offered to baby boomers

658
00:45:32.159 --> 00:45:38.239
for whatever the elements are, you
know what the most conspicuous TV commercial this

659
00:45:38.280 --> 00:45:44.840
week was diet coke. I haven't
seen a coke a diet coke commercial in

660
00:45:45.000 --> 00:45:49.719
years. And every time I turned
on the TV, diet coke commercials were

661
00:45:49.719 --> 00:45:53.760
on and considering the who or the
portion of the who has just said,

662
00:45:53.800 --> 00:45:58.880
diet coke make cause cancer. Now
they come out with TV commercials and no

663
00:45:58.880 --> 00:46:01.039
one's saying anything. I'm saying it. I mean they're doing it because they

664
00:46:01.079 --> 00:46:06.440
have to regain confidence in their brand. Yeah, drink a soda that gives

665
00:46:06.440 --> 00:46:09.079
you cancer or may give you cancer. I think that's perfect for commercials,

666
00:46:09.079 --> 00:46:13.000
don't you. The other thing,
I went to Costco this week. I

667
00:46:13.039 --> 00:46:15.320
hadn't been in Costco in a while, and of all things, I needed

668
00:46:15.360 --> 00:46:19.519
batteries, and I know I get
them there relatively fair prices in a large

669
00:46:19.559 --> 00:46:24.920
quantity of them. But after getting
into Costco and staying online for twenty minutes,

670
00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:30.559
watching people unload four hundred items and
having to wait there and then realizing

671
00:46:30.639 --> 00:46:35.760
they don't give your bags you take
them out in your wheelie caught. The

672
00:46:35.800 --> 00:46:39.119
whole experience of Costco drove me crazy. It wasn't enjoyable, although I would

673
00:46:39.559 --> 00:46:43.920
I would say the price makes it
worthwhile. Do you want to hear something

674
00:46:43.920 --> 00:46:47.000
that really annoys me. It's very
specific. I'm listening. You ever go

675
00:46:47.039 --> 00:46:52.800
to a restaurant and it's somebody's birthday, and you make the effort to tell

676
00:46:52.880 --> 00:46:55.760
the restaurant before, or you sneak
away from the table and you tell the

677
00:46:55.800 --> 00:47:00.360
waitress or the major day, Hey, can you bring this CaCO? Can

678
00:47:00.360 --> 00:47:02.199
you bring a dessert over surprise the
person whose birthday it is? And they

679
00:47:02.239 --> 00:47:07.360
say sure. The meal wraps up, and instead of just bringing the cake

680
00:47:07.480 --> 00:47:12.679
with the candles and surprising the person, somebody thinks it's a good idea to

681
00:47:12.679 --> 00:47:16.000
take plates and forks and knives and
put them out before the cake comes,

682
00:47:16.159 --> 00:47:22.920
and it ruins the surprise that annoys
me so much, and all the time

683
00:47:22.000 --> 00:47:25.119
I feel the urge to speak to
the person, like, what's your thought

684
00:47:25.119 --> 00:47:29.039
process here? Why do you think
this was a good idea? Ruins the

685
00:47:29.079 --> 00:47:31.880
soul surprise that annoys me. Yeah, you're a hundred percent right. I'll

686
00:47:31.880 --> 00:47:35.480
give you another annoying one, because
you know, I'm shot out of a

687
00:47:35.519 --> 00:47:37.719
cannon. I had a million this
week Optimum. I've been talking for a

688
00:47:37.800 --> 00:47:43.320
year about the problems I had with
Optimum, my service being out for weeks

689
00:47:43.360 --> 00:47:49.239
on end and holding it together patchwork, and fortunately about a month ago they

690
00:47:49.280 --> 00:47:52.159
sent this guy. His name was
Anthony, and he was brilliant, and

691
00:47:52.239 --> 00:47:57.400
he overrode the guy who was here
a week earlier who told me all my

692
00:47:57.480 --> 00:48:00.599
boxes are obsolete. They all have
to be returned, optimen replaced with others,

693
00:48:00.639 --> 00:48:04.039
and when they're done, you have
to bring in a computer guy to

694
00:48:04.039 --> 00:48:07.000
get the whole thing all done.
And I was distroyed, and I asked

695
00:48:07.079 --> 00:48:08.880
them to send me a genius.
The guy figured it out and it's been

696
00:48:08.960 --> 00:48:13.599
brilliant. Knock on wood, knock
on wood, knock on wood, brilliant.

697
00:48:14.199 --> 00:48:17.760
But I've been trying to collect now
for six months the money they owe

698
00:48:17.800 --> 00:48:22.119
me for all the time that my
system was out, and I can't get

699
00:48:22.159 --> 00:48:25.159
anywhere, and it's so annoying.
It's driving me crazy. Now the money's

700
00:48:25.199 --> 00:48:29.679
not going to change anything. I
don't care, and it's working now and

701
00:48:29.719 --> 00:48:32.719
I'm it's a godsend, but I
can't get to anywhere on first base with

702
00:48:32.760 --> 00:48:37.280
that. I also get really annoyed. Do you ever notice when people just

703
00:48:37.400 --> 00:48:42.719
have the urge to make obnoxious comments, like they all try to be wise

704
00:48:42.760 --> 00:48:45.880
guys and funny, and it just
doesn't make sense. I give you an

705
00:48:45.920 --> 00:48:49.599
example. Playing golf a few weeks
ago, I didn't hit the best shot.

706
00:48:50.239 --> 00:48:53.519
Guy standing nearby a golfer goes,
that was a bad shot. Why

707
00:48:53.519 --> 00:48:55.880
do you have to say that?
What's it is? Business? Yeah?

708
00:48:55.920 --> 00:48:59.760
Why does he have to be a
wise guy about that? Everybody's annoying.

709
00:49:00.280 --> 00:49:02.360
This has been annoying. Not to
show I've had a great time. The

710
00:49:02.440 --> 00:49:06.480
world is annoying. I don't know
about you, but everyone I talked to

711
00:49:06.639 --> 00:49:08.360
is annoying. The only person in
the world I can think of is not

712
00:49:08.440 --> 00:49:14.159
annoying. That's me. I'm perfect, But I will say the government agencies

713
00:49:14.239 --> 00:49:16.440
lately I want to call out.
They deserve the credit. I don't dread

714
00:49:16.519 --> 00:49:21.360
going into the Motor Vehicle Bureau any
longer. I actually enjoy going to the

715
00:49:21.400 --> 00:49:24.840
post office. Speaking post office,
they finally raised their prices on their forever

716
00:49:24.920 --> 00:49:29.280
stamps way to Go, and they
made a sizeable increase. Why I don't

717
00:49:29.320 --> 00:49:30.559
like paying it? As a consumer? I got to give them credit.

718
00:49:30.599 --> 00:49:34.760
It's time you want to laugh at
Trump and call him annoying for a night

719
00:49:34.760 --> 00:49:37.920
without going annoying. I gotta tell
you he was right. How could the

720
00:49:37.000 --> 00:49:42.760
post office possibly lose money? They
have a monopoly on the mail. You

721
00:49:42.800 --> 00:49:45.960
want to give me a job and
pay me a percentage of whatever I save.

722
00:49:45.199 --> 00:49:47.679
I want to go run the post
office. I guarantee you within a

723
00:49:47.760 --> 00:49:51.599
year they'll be the most profitable division. I also want to give a shout

724
00:49:51.599 --> 00:49:55.320
out to US Passport Agencies. I
went there to renew my passport. They

725
00:49:55.320 --> 00:49:59.440
were great, and they told me
it's going to take up to eleven weeks.

726
00:49:59.440 --> 00:50:01.280
Three weeks, I got a passport, and I gotta tell you it's

727
00:50:01.320 --> 00:50:05.559
beautiful. If you haven't seen the
new passport, it's beautiful. I'm proud

728
00:50:05.599 --> 00:50:07.920
to hold it and I was excited
to get it. But in the night

729
00:50:07.920 --> 00:50:12.000
we're talking, you know, I
want to talk a little about coming attractions.

730
00:50:12.360 --> 00:50:16.119
I don't know about you, but
sometimes an idea today planned for months

731
00:50:16.199 --> 00:50:23.079
later just doesn't feel as good.
I accepted the Lifetime Achievement Award from Mr.

732
00:50:23.199 --> 00:50:28.400
Magazine, and next week I'm actually
getting the award. You know,

733
00:50:28.440 --> 00:50:31.360
I thought the wonder, why am
I doing this? Do I need authentication?

734
00:50:31.440 --> 00:50:35.880
Do I need validation that I had
a career, that I made a

735
00:50:35.880 --> 00:50:38.679
contribution I did good. No.
But on the other side, my whole

736
00:50:38.679 --> 00:50:42.840
family is going to be there.
Jesse and Jared, my sons, are

737
00:50:42.880 --> 00:50:45.360
going to give me the award.
So that's priceless. My whole family,

738
00:50:45.360 --> 00:50:50.239
we have a table. It's going
to be a nice thing, and I

739
00:50:50.280 --> 00:50:53.559
suppose I'm accepting it on their behalf. I don't need accolades. I know

740
00:50:53.599 --> 00:50:58.920
who I am. On the other
side, I'm going to see an industry

741
00:50:59.199 --> 00:51:04.400
that's three one hundred and fifty people
sold out. I helped the fact that

742
00:51:04.440 --> 00:51:07.000
my name was used. We got
extra ads in the magazines, and there's

743
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:10.880
some very nice tributes played out to
me that you could see I posted on

744
00:51:12.880 --> 00:51:16.480
Always in Fashion Instagram or if you
look up Mmmer's magazine July issue you might

745
00:51:16.519 --> 00:51:20.519
see it very nice. And the
people who turned out for me, I

746
00:51:20.559 --> 00:51:24.320
really appreciate all the sponsors showed up
and it's really really nice and it's going

747
00:51:24.400 --> 00:51:27.960
to be meaningful. And why am
I telling you this on a night that's

748
00:51:27.960 --> 00:51:30.519
annoying. I think I'm a little
annoyed that I have to deal with this.

749
00:51:30.119 --> 00:51:34.159
But on the other hand, I'm
very excited because it is for the

750
00:51:34.239 --> 00:51:37.519
family priceless, and I want to
tell you from upcoming attraction point of view.

751
00:51:37.800 --> 00:51:43.360
Next week's show, we're going to
talk about lifetime achievement. With that,

752
00:51:44.000 --> 00:51:45.960
I hope you enjoyed the show I
did. If you didn't, it's

753
00:51:46.039 --> 00:51:49.440
because you're annoying. Good Night,
