Yeah, you know, like I said, 225 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,279 I just want us all to be seen and heard. 226 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's great. It's it's a great opportunity too for 227 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,360 bands that maybe, like you know, there are some young 228 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,840 bands in the area that have a hard time even 229 00:10:14,879 --> 00:10:17,360 getting booked at you know, like at a bar, you know, 230 00:10:17,399 --> 00:10:20,759 because a lot of places don't want Like years ago, 231 00:10:21,039 --> 00:10:23,159 I don't know if you remember the Uptown Tavern. 232 00:10:22,879 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 2: Oh god, yeah, yeah, yeah, kind of, I was. 233 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: I was. I was one of the promoters. I put 234 00:10:27,039 --> 00:10:29,440 on a lot of shows there. You know, they would 235 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,799 they would let me book underage bands, but it was 236 00:10:31,879 --> 00:10:33,799 like they could only come in when it was time 237 00:10:33,879 --> 00:10:35,840 to set up and they had to leave right after. 238 00:10:35,879 --> 00:10:38,399 And it was and you know, the the the management 239 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,919 there wasn't crazy about it. But but we need we 240 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,159 need places like that where younger bands can play. Like 241 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,879 I work with a band called Under the Horizon. I'm 242 00:10:45,879 --> 00:10:48,480 handling their radio campaign and I'm also trying to get 243 00:10:48,519 --> 00:10:51,799 them some shows. But it's hard because you know, bars 244 00:10:51,879 --> 00:10:55,200 don't want you know, they're they're underage. Bars, bars are 245 00:10:55,279 --> 00:10:57,960 like more uptight about it than ever yep, which I 246 00:10:58,039 --> 00:11:01,759 understand of course. But but so it's so valuable, you know, 247 00:11:01,879 --> 00:11:06,360 to have a place that younger people can play by time. Yeah, fantastic. 248 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,159 Speaker 3: It's tough when you're at that age and you know 249 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,879 what your passion is. You know deep in your heart 250 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,759 that you can't help but play this music or paint 251 00:11:17,799 --> 00:11:21,879 that painting. It's inside of you. And when you get 252 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,480 kind of shunned down because you don't have a place 253 00:11:25,519 --> 00:11:28,039 to go, I mean it hurts, it does. I mean 254 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:33,600 I ruined my chance, my chances of ever really playing 255 00:11:33,639 --> 00:11:36,200 anywhere when I was like nineteen, because I got into 256 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:41,759 the rave scene early and I found exactly what I needed, 257 00:11:42,159 --> 00:11:45,440 and then I trailed off and I allowed the demons 258 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,159 to come in and start dictating the course of my life. 259 00:11:49,399 --> 00:11:52,000 And I'm super grateful that I'm coming up on eighteen 260 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:57,879 now because I've matured kind of, I've matured to the 261 00:11:57,879 --> 00:12:00,960 point where I understand that the music and the dancing 262 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,840 in the community we're always my first love. Yeah, you know, 263 00:12:04,919 --> 00:12:07,240 and so like I don't I choose not to allow 264 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,559 the other vices to come in. I've built a foundation 265 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,679 and I can do it, and it's it's I have 266 00:12:13,759 --> 00:12:16,799 no words for what it is. So point being like, 267 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,080 these young kids need a place so that they don't 268 00:12:20,159 --> 00:12:22,399 stray down the path that I went because you get 269 00:12:22,399 --> 00:12:26,600 insecure when people tell you no, you know so so yeah, yeah, 270 00:12:26,639 --> 00:12:31,240 to give them a platform to be able to express 271 00:12:31,279 --> 00:12:34,559 their passion is going to do wonders for them in 272 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:35,720 the course of their life. 273 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,919 Speaker 1: Definitely. Yep. We have a question for you in the 274 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,200 chat room.

But I wanted to ask what 281 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,279 made you turn toward the bottle in your life and 282 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:58,759 also what made you stop? 283 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 2: Thank you, Charles? What made me turn? 284 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, if we really break that down, 285 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:11,279 it was just insecurities and low self esteem and an 286 00:13:11,399 --> 00:13:13,840 easy way out is what caused me to turn to 287 00:13:13,879 --> 00:13:16,039 the bottle. You know, a lot of kids my age 288 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:17,679 were doing that. You know, It's what we did when 289 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,399 we were kids. And I had no idea that, like, 290 00:13:20,519 --> 00:13:22,960 I was an addict. I didn't know. I didn't know 291 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:26,360 that I was hardwired differently. Yeah, not really differently, man, 292 00:13:26,399 --> 00:13:29,519 We all lots of us are are hard wired that way. 293 00:13:29,879 --> 00:13:32,960 It was an easy way out, Charles, if I could 294 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,159 really sum it out, it was instead of taking a 295 00:13:35,159 --> 00:13:38,519 good hard look at itself and trying to do a 296 00:13:38,519 --> 00:13:41,039 little bit of work, this young kid was just going 297 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:42,840 to take the bottle and run with it. And once 298 00:13:42,919 --> 00:13:45,720 I started, I couldn't stop because it numbed it right out, 299 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,080 the voices that told me I wasn't good enough and 300 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,000 that I would never be anybody that was it. I 301 00:13:51,039 --> 00:13:53,159 was partying like a rock star with no instrument. 302 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:54,039 Speaker 2: Yeah. 303 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:58,039 Speaker 1: You know, that's the insidious thing about alcoholism, too, is that, 304 00:13:58,519 --> 00:14:01,039 as you refer to it, you didn't know you were, 305 00:14:01,399 --> 00:14:03,360 like your brain is hardwired for that. That's the thing 306 00:14:03,639 --> 00:14:06,759 with alcohol. You don't know. You really have no way 307 00:14:06,759 --> 00:14:08,759 of knowing until. 308 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:09,879 Speaker 2: It's too late, exactly. 309 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I mean there is I know there's some 310 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:17,240 research that shows that there may be a genetic component. 311 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,039 But but but like with anything you can never you know, 312 00:14:20,279 --> 00:14:23,840 you can't be sure.

And some people 350 00:15:57,879 --> 00:15:59,879 will scoff a little bit because they'll say, like you 351 00:16:00,159 --> 00:16:02,679 for it earlier to the universe, you know, guiding you 352 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,879 and so forth, or putting you in this direction.

It's still regardless of that, 358 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,320 take that, take that piece out of it, if it's 359 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,519 too woo woo for you or whatever, it's still just 360 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,279 kind of how life works anyway, you know what, even 361 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,279 without that part of it, although I do believe in 362 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:32,440 that part of it, because I've I've had some wild 363 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,200 synchronicities happen that it can't possibly be coincidence.

But but even if you take that 365 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,519 part out of it, just I think that's still just 366 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,039 kind of how life works in that if you if 367 00:16:44,039 --> 00:16:46,279 you're a good person, and if you're a positive person, 368 00:16:47,039 --> 00:16:49,200 other positive people are going to want to be around you, 369 00:16:49,639 --> 00:16:52,240 whereas if you're a negative person, positive people are not 370 00:16:52,279 --> 00:16:54,120 going to want to be around you, and then negative 371 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:55,799 people will fill the voice absolutely. 372 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,159 Speaker 3: And it's try and it's it's been proven with me 373 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,440 as well. It's through trial and error. I try to, 374 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:01,960 like people come at me with a little bit of 375 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,319 negativity in a conversation and I'll try, hey, what's like 376 00:17:05,559 --> 00:17:09,240 because it's contagious and it will latch on and then 377 00:17:09,599 --> 00:17:11,160 it just you see what happens. 378 00:17:11,519 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: Yep, yeah, yep, one hundred percent.

I put myself last in 539 00:24:36,759 --> 00:24:38,400 most instances in uh. 540 00:24:38,759 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 2: But but but this. 541 00:24:39,759 --> 00:24:44,079 Speaker 1: Is a win win for every You just described that strategy. 542 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:49,119 That's that's very smart. And of course, because it's not 543 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,480 a bar, you don't there's no I assume because it's 544 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,680 not a bar, there's because I know it's like Jenny Is. 545 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,400 Jenny knows a lot about the live because she used 546 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,160 to be a state legislator here in New Hampshire and 547 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,279 she always says, there's really no such thing as a 548 00:25:02,319 --> 00:25:05,759 bar in New Hampshire. Everything's a restaurant because if you're 549 00:25:05,759 --> 00:25:08,400 a bar, you're required to have a certain amount of 550 00:25:09,759 --> 00:25:12,160 I don't know exactly how the math works, but it's 551 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,759 like a certain percentage of your sales has to be 552 00:25:14,839 --> 00:25:16,240 food and not alcohol. 553 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,039 Speaker 2: Oh interesting, Yeah, yeah, Okay. 554 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 1: There are exemptions. I guess, like Jewel is actually classified 555 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:24,720 as a ballroom not a bar. I don't know how 556 00:25:24,759 --> 00:25:25,519 that interest. 557 00:25:25,799 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeaho poles. 558 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,799 Speaker 1: But in your case, whereas you're not serving alcohol, you 559 00:25:29,839 --> 00:25:30,559 don't have to worry. 560 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 2: About Yeah, so that's great. Yep, yep, that's really good. 561 00:25:34,319 --> 00:25:39,079 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm curious too the space, like can you tell 562 00:25:39,279 --> 00:25:42,359 it that it used to be an obishon? Like is 563 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:43,319 there stuff left over? 564 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I've got some cool pictures on my phone 565 00:25:45,519 --> 00:25:48,599 when we were digging up. So it was probably four 566 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,880 layers of plywood, not plywood, but four layers of flooring 567 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,519 in the place. So they never ripped up the old flooring. 568 00:25:55,799 --> 00:25:59,039 Every time somebody renovated, Yeah, they would just lay lay 569 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,759 more flooring down. So I had my good buddy, he 570 00:26:03,039 --> 00:26:05,039 stepped up to the plate and got him and his 571 00:26:05,079 --> 00:26:06,880 guys to go down and rip up the floor a 572 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,160 couple of weeks ago, and they ripped up like four 573 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,559 layers and got it down to the original hardwood floor 574 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,200 that was in there, and we really wanted to use it, 575 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,319 but it was going to get damaged as they were 576 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:19,000 ripping it up. 577 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 2: But there's. 578 00:26:21,319 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 3: Those those tree fresheners you know that we hang on 579 00:26:24,279 --> 00:26:27,079 the used to hang on the rear views. There's like 580 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:31,240 a giant one from probably fifty years ago that's stuck 581 00:26:31,279 --> 00:26:33,720 to the floor. And then one of those you know 582 00:26:33,839 --> 00:26:37,119 get your keys made here that's probably from like early 583 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,559 eighties that's stuck there. It's about two feet by two feet. 584 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,039 It was really cool. Yeah, and then you go down 585 00:26:43,079 --> 00:26:48,920 in the basement and there's like three separate stairways that 586 00:26:49,039 --> 00:26:51,759 go up to nothing down in the space. Because main 587 00:26:51,839 --> 00:26:56,480 Street has risen about five feet over the years it 588 00:26:56,599 --> 00:26:58,720 used to be, so if you were to try to 589 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,640 access through that their way, you'd be you'd run right 590 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,079 into the sidewalk at your chest. So there's these like 591 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:07,759 staircases that aren't being used anymore. 592 00:27:07,799 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 2: It's oh, it's really cool. 593 00:27:09,319 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 1: Interesting. 594 00:27:09,839 --> 00:27:14,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's really cool. And I feel sound studio vibes 595 00:27:14,839 --> 00:27:17,400 coming from that basement. So we're not going to do 596 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,960 that immediately. Obviously, we want to get these doors open 597 00:27:20,039 --> 00:27:23,359 and get everybody in there. But I think a year 598 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,279 or so down the road, i'd like to create, like 599 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:30,920 build out a sound studio that'll be under main Street. Yeah, 600 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,240 so we can record things and people can come and 601 00:27:33,319 --> 00:27:35,160 record albums at the spot. 602 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:36,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, excellent. 603 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:36,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. 604 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: Now, have you always been an entrepreneur? 605 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 2: I didn't. 606 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:41,319 Speaker 3: I was just funny. I was just talking to them 607 00:27:41,319 --> 00:27:43,559 before they left. I didn't know what it was, Matt, 608 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:50,480 I didn't know. I knew that for me, working the 609 00:27:50,599 --> 00:27:55,200 nine to five didn't sit right with me, and that's 610 00:27:55,240 --> 00:28:00,599 not to knock it. I'm a little crazy, and you know, 611 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:05,079 I loved the jobs that I had growing up. But 612 00:28:05,279 --> 00:28:10,079 for me, the thought of working till I am sixty 613 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:15,160 five and collecting a certain percentage of money from that company, 614 00:28:15,799 --> 00:28:20,559 it just didn't make sense for me. God bless my dad. 615 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,160 The guy shows up to work every day. He is 616 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,559 my role model and he has been my whole life. 617 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,319 Shout out to Mom and Dad. I love you guys. 618 00:28:31,599 --> 00:28:34,960 But for me, I didn't know that the add right, 619 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,599 the attention deficit, was actually an asset class. I was 620 00:28:37,599 --> 00:28:39,519 always told, Mike, you to sit down, shut up. You're 621 00:28:39,559 --> 00:28:41,839 not sit down, shut up, sit down, shut up. I'm 622 00:28:41,839 --> 00:28:45,640 a scatterbrain. But as an entrepreneur, that's an asset class. 623 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,000 That's the skill set. So it wasn't until a few 624 00:28:48,079 --> 00:28:50,839 years ago that I was somebody was like, oh, you're 625 00:28:50,839 --> 00:28:53,519 an entrepreneur. I'm like, no, those are those Those are 626 00:28:53,519 --> 00:28:56,599 those big guys that own multiple companies and da da, 627 00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:00,440 da da. I guess that's what I am. I don't know, madam. 628 00:29:00,839 --> 00:29:03,720 What I'm addicted to is listening to what the people want. 629 00:29:04,359 --> 00:29:04,519 Speaker 2: You know. 630 00:29:04,559 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 3: I own a repair shop in Hudson that got voted 631 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,119 the best repair shop in the Greater Nashua area two 632 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:10,599 years ago. 633 00:29:11,119 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, we were only two years old.

I just love to play. 715 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:15,599 So if people want me to play, I'm playing yep, yep, 716 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:17,880 because it does something for me and I know that 717 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:19,440 it'll do something for somebody else. 718 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 1: Yep. How often do you play out? 719 00:33:23,079 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 3: I mean I play every single day, you know, and 720 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,039 I stream on on YouTube. I've got a YouTube yep. 721 00:33:28,079 --> 00:33:32,839 I've got a YouTube channel excellent for the Healer. And 722 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:35,160 I mean I play, like I said, I play every day. 723 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:39,319 I stream probably once a week. Yes, just my passion, Matt. 724 00:33:39,799 --> 00:33:41,759 Speaker 1: With the streaming, do you run it into any you know, 725 00:33:41,799 --> 00:33:46,039 they're constantly changing how they approach it with this show, 726 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,119 you know, because we stream on YouTube and with this show, 727 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:52,480 like I'll get I don't get copyright strike because that's 728 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,319 only if someone actually wants to, you know, really go 729 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,240 at you. But but I I just get the thing 730 00:33:57,279 --> 00:34:00,640 that says, you can't monetize this all this, which is fine? 731 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,720 Is that is that all the time, But but you 732 00:34:02,759 --> 00:34:04,599 don't get struck, right, that's good. 733 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, it'll tell me that, like some of my mixes 734 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:08,880 will tell me that it's it's a portion of it's 735 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:10,480 being muted in certain countries. 736 00:34:10,679 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly, yeah, yeah. 737 00:34:12,519 --> 00:34:13,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. 738 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,599 Speaker 3: And I find that YouTube's actually the easier one outside 739 00:34:16,639 --> 00:34:19,440 of twitch twitches. Twitch is great, I just haven't used 740 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:23,280 it since last year. Yeah, YouTube has been great as 741 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:27,519 far as getting a reach aside from like Facebook, going 742 00:34:27,559 --> 00:34:30,440 Facebook Live. I can never really keep the stream on 743 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,039 on Facebook. But yeah, yeah, I've been having good luck. 744 00:34:33,079 --> 00:34:35,639 But yeah, the same thing happens to me with YouTube. 745 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 1: With Facebook because we also stream to Facebook, and I 746 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:41,840 get I'll get a notification afterward that says, now it's 747 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:45,679 it's fine because well, once in a while it'll say 748 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,719 your videos muted. Yeah, parts of your video are muted. 749 00:34:49,079 --> 00:34:51,239 But most of the time it'll say your video is 750 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,079 sharing ad revenue with. 751 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 2: Whoever was I've caught that one whoever was on show 752 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:55,960 that day? 753 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:56,519 Speaker 1: This is fine? 754 00:34:56,519 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 2: You know what does that mean? 755 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: It just means that. So, so I guess Facebook is 756 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:08,079 collecting money if your stream generates money, But nothing I 757 00:35:08,159 --> 00:35:10,679 have on there is monetized anyway, So I don't even 758 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,639 know how. Like if you go to one of my 759 00:35:13,639 --> 00:35:16,159 Facebook videos, it's not like an ad pops up, but 760 00:35:16,679 --> 00:35:20,000 if something were generated from it, I guess I'm sharing 761 00:35:20,039 --> 00:35:23,159 the revenue that I'm that I don't get anyway. I mean, 762 00:35:23,159 --> 00:35:25,159 I'm sharing the revenue with whoever was on the show 763 00:35:25,159 --> 00:35:28,960 that day, whose music we featured, because they own the copyright. 764 00:35:29,039 --> 00:35:32,039 Because I'll tell you, Facebook and YouTube, their content ID 765 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:35,480 systems have gotten to be as I'm sure you've noticed 766 00:35:35,639 --> 00:35:39,360 doing what you do with the streaming. They really they're 767 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,599 really on top of it now, you know, it's like 768 00:35:41,639 --> 00:35:44,880 there's no way, there's no getting around it. Like used 769 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:46,440 to be able to kind of fool the content I 770 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,800 thots by, you know, if you maybe play with the 771 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:54,119 speed on something. Yeah, yeah, but now it's like there's 772 00:35:54,159 --> 00:36:00,000 no fool and there's no fool in anybody anyway. Yeah exactly. 773 00:36:00,199 --> 00:36:07,400 Speaker 2: It just can listen and it knows exactly. Yep, yep. Yeah. 774 00:36:09,199 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 1: Now what what else do you plan to do at 775 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,239 the spot when it opens? So obviously you're gonna have 776 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,639 live music. You talked about what you might do in 777 00:36:15,679 --> 00:36:18,519 the basement with a studio. Did you have any other 778 00:36:18,679 --> 00:36:19,440 other plans for. 779 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,320 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I want to do comedy nights. I want 780 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:25,679 to do poetry nights. Maybe even considering putting like a 781 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:29,719 projector screen up and doing movie nights once a week. 782 00:36:31,159 --> 00:36:36,840 Basically what my vision for it is. You know, during 783 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,039 the summers, we have a lot of my my course 784 00:36:40,119 --> 00:36:42,360 circle come over to my house and and we sit 785 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,599 around the fire and like I'll bring the turntables outside 786 00:36:46,159 --> 00:36:49,159 and uh light the tiki torches, and we just kind 787 00:36:49,159 --> 00:36:51,800 of create a vibe. And it's the vibe that like, 788 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:54,280 I'm very like I told you, I'm very scatter brained, 789 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,320 and that can come with a lot of anxiety as 790 00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,920 well for no reason. But when I when I'm able 791 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,400 to do that and get my friends to come around, 792 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,320 like it immediately heals me to a place where, like 793 00:37:06,639 --> 00:37:09,119 the anxiety is gone. So thank you guys for coming 794 00:37:09,159 --> 00:37:12,320 over when I when I do that. But what we 795 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:16,199 want to do with the Spot is kind of encompass 796 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:19,480 that same vibe down at the spot. It's like just 797 00:37:19,559 --> 00:37:23,079 come down, hang out, leave the worries at the door 798 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,559 and just have a good time with us.
