<v Speaker 5>I'll always talk about your problems and complaints. First, phone

49
00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:33.319
<v Speaker 5>calls take precedent on the show. But I every day

50
00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:36.560
<v Speaker 5>I sit here, we're weekdays mark or I sit here

51
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:40.240
<v Speaker 5>and we take calls and then we get comments. The

52
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:44.120
<v Speaker 5>comments come during the call, sometimes on YouTube chat, or

53
00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:46.960
<v Speaker 5>they text us and you can text us as well.

54
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:50.080
<v Speaker 5>At here's my favorite number because it comes to my

00:02:57.719 --> 00:03:02.080
<v Speaker 5>eighty seven four seven eighty. And by the way, that

58
00:03:02.199 --> 00:03:04.560
<v Speaker 5>number was filled up with well wishers when I was

59
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:09.759
<v Speaker 5>in the hospital undergoing this cancer surgery and I had

60
00:03:09.759 --> 00:03:13.360
<v Speaker 5>a successful outcome and Mark talked about it. I had

61
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:16.879
<v Speaker 5>hundreds and hundreds and they came right to me and

62
00:03:16.919 --> 00:03:17.680
<v Speaker 5>I appreciate it.

63
00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:19.759
<v Speaker 2>Seven four seven nine nine nine fifty two eighty.

64
00:03:19.960 --> 00:03:23.680
<v Speaker 5>Then iHeart has a number, a short code you can

65
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:26.639
<v Speaker 5>text five seven seven three nine. Just put Tom there,

66
00:03:26.800 --> 00:03:29.319
<v Speaker 5>It'll come to me. So one of the things I

67
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:32.439
<v Speaker 5>wanted to talk about is we hear about problems every day,

68
00:03:32.840 --> 00:03:36.319
<v Speaker 5>and one of the things we will get will get comments.

69
00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:38.479
<v Speaker 5>Some of them are off the wall, some of them

70
00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:41.199
<v Speaker 5>are right on, some of them are ingenious, and I

71
00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:44.680
<v Speaker 5>call them pearls of wisdom. Many times I take notes

72
00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:48.360
<v Speaker 5>of these even though I didn't air them. So your

73
00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:51.319
<v Speaker 5>comments on calls are important. But today I'm going to

74
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:55.240
<v Speaker 5>ask a favor. Today I'm going to ask you to verbalize.

75
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:59.840
<v Speaker 5>I'm not verbalized, but call in with them or text me.

76
00:03:59.879 --> 00:04:06.159
<v Speaker 5>Because I love wisdom, and wisdom comes from all over

77
00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:10.599
<v Speaker 5>the place, everywhere. So I want your pearls of wisdom.

78
00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:15.879
<v Speaker 5>As al Pacino said, Incent of a woman, pearls. I'm

79
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:18.480
<v Speaker 5>spitting pearls here, pearls of wisdom.

80
00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:19.639
<v Speaker 2>I want you.

81
00:04:19.720 --> 00:04:21.959
<v Speaker 5>It doesn't have to be about a caller at hand,

82
00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:25.399
<v Speaker 5>but even if you recall a past problem where you

83
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:30.480
<v Speaker 5>wanted to chime in, I truly want to know what's

84
00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:34.959
<v Speaker 5>on your mind and what kind of solutions you may offer.

85
00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:38.160
<v Speaker 5>So give us a call if you have pearls of

86
00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:42.240
<v Speaker 5>wisdom or little things that always work for you always.

87
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:45.680
<v Speaker 5>I want to give you a quick example. But I'm

88
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:48.959
<v Speaker 5>going to take a call first. Things that always work

89
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:51.600
<v Speaker 5>for you that you'd like to share with us, little

90
00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:54.399
<v Speaker 5>hacks that you've come up with, or little things that

91
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:56.399
<v Speaker 5>you do that serve you well.

92
00:04:56.839 --> 00:04:57.720
<v Speaker 2>Share it with us.

93
00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:00.560
<v Speaker 5>It could be something like getting a low price plane ticket,

94
00:05:00.680 --> 00:05:05.439
<v Speaker 5>or taking advantage of coupon deals, or say anything. Just

95
00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:09.000
<v Speaker 5>let us know. Now, Rick, he wants to talk about

96
00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:15.199
<v Speaker 5>a drywall issue. So we'll start off with Rick, Rick,

97
00:05:15.319 --> 00:05:16.199
<v Speaker 5>what is going on.

98
00:05:17.079 --> 00:05:19.839
<v Speaker 8>Hi, Tom, thanks for taking the call back.

99
00:05:19.879 --> 00:05:21.040
<v Speaker 2>In What's going on?

100
00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:25.839
<v Speaker 8>Twelve eleven, But twenty four I hired a contractor to

101
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:29.600
<v Speaker 8>do some drywall for me and he came up with

102
00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:32.959
<v Speaker 8>He delivered fifty five sheets out of one hundred and

103
00:05:32.959 --> 00:05:35.839
<v Speaker 8>sixty seven. There was supposed to be eight footer or

104
00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:38.519
<v Speaker 8>twelve footers or eight footers, which I let him go.

105
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:43.279
<v Speaker 8>I came home from work and uh, it was a mess.

106
00:05:43.319 --> 00:05:46.279
<v Speaker 8>He didn't even have a drywall square. It was all

107
00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:49.000
<v Speaker 8>cut up. They had two three screws in each sheet.

108
00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:52.720
<v Speaker 8>It was covered up all the outlets. It was a

109
00:05:52.720 --> 00:05:56.720
<v Speaker 8>horrible mess. So I called him and he came by the.

110
00:05:56.680 --> 00:05:59.040
<v Speaker 9>Next day and I let him go.

111
00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:03.720
<v Speaker 8>I said, you know a drywall or don what's going on?

112
00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:06.360
<v Speaker 8>So I get Rick?

113
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:08.600
<v Speaker 5>Rick, I want to ask a couple of questions, how

114
00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:10.439
<v Speaker 5>did you How did you find this guy?

115
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:11.079
<v Speaker 2>To begin with?

116
00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:14.639
<v Speaker 8>I found him through a friend out in Cheensburg.

117
00:06:16.959 --> 00:06:18.160
<v Speaker 2>And where are you located?

118
00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:21.000
<v Speaker 8>I'm located in Strasburg, Colradel.

119
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:25.920
<v Speaker 5>Okay, So the bottom line is you hired a drywall

120
00:06:25.959 --> 00:06:31.199
<v Speaker 5>contractor who did a bad job. But if he wasn't finished.

121
00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:36.240
<v Speaker 5>Many times, drywall to the untrained eye may look like

122
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:39.879
<v Speaker 5>or screwed up. Like I remember one time coming into

123
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:43.279
<v Speaker 5>my new home. I was building at one time, and

124
00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:45.839
<v Speaker 5>I saw exactly what you're talking about, and I saw

125
00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:48.480
<v Speaker 5>rough edges and around the outlets I saw.

126
00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:51.600
<v Speaker 2>I just I don't know. I didn't like it.

127
00:06:52.199 --> 00:06:57.240
<v Speaker 5>So but when it was finished and taped it, it

128
00:06:57.399 --> 00:06:57.920
<v Speaker 5>was fine.

129
00:06:58.360 --> 00:07:00.759
<v Speaker 2>So what what do you know about drywall?

130
00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:05.240
<v Speaker 5>And what was really defective about the rough drywall job

131
00:07:05.279 --> 00:07:05.839
<v Speaker 5>you looked at?

132
00:07:06.600 --> 00:07:09.279
<v Speaker 8>Well, what was defective is tom is that when he

133
00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:12.199
<v Speaker 8>cut it, he just ripped the paper right off it

134
00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:15.079
<v Speaker 8>and then the pieces and pieces yip.

135
00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:18.319
<v Speaker 5>But Rick Rick, Rick Rick, they cover all that up

136
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:19.160
<v Speaker 5>with mud.

137
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:23.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean what I'm trying to discern here, I'm trying.

138
00:07:22.800 --> 00:07:26.519
<v Speaker 5>To figure out was it really defective or how do

139
00:07:26.560 --> 00:07:27.639
<v Speaker 5>you know it was defective?

140
00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:29.240
<v Speaker 2>Did you have someone look at it?

141
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:33.000
<v Speaker 8>I did. I had another professional company come out and

142
00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:33.560
<v Speaker 8>look at it.

143
00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:37.040
<v Speaker 5>And what did they say? I know what they said?

144
00:07:37.240 --> 00:07:38.600
<v Speaker 5>It has to be all redone.

145
00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:43.759
<v Speaker 8>Well, what he said was he says they definitely weren't

146
00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:47.759
<v Speaker 8>a drywall company, didn't know what they're doing. And he said, uh,

147
00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:51.680
<v Speaker 8>we can we can fix what they what they put up.

148
00:07:51.959 --> 00:07:53.199
<v Speaker 8>But I already tore it down.

149
00:07:56.079 --> 00:07:58.959
<v Speaker 5>Rick, I don't know what to tell you. Man, how

150
00:07:59.000 --> 00:08:00.720
<v Speaker 5>long ago was this?

151
00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:03.399
<v Speaker 8>This was a twelve eleven.

152
00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:06.920
<v Speaker 2>Of last year, so in December?

153
00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:09.399
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, yeah, okay.

154
00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:09.800
<v Speaker 2>Here, but.

155
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:14.639
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but Rick, let's let's just look at this. Let's

156
00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:17.000
<v Speaker 5>look at this logically. Do you have any pictures that

157
00:08:17.120 --> 00:08:18.399
<v Speaker 5>there was a dry wall job?

158
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:18.879
<v Speaker 2>Rick?

159
00:08:19.639 --> 00:08:19.720
<v Speaker 11>What?

160
00:08:19.920 --> 00:08:20.160
<v Speaker 2>Mark?

161
00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:22.560
<v Speaker 7>I was just wondering if he had a picture of

162
00:08:22.600 --> 00:08:24.839
<v Speaker 7>it that he could send, because I'm kind of yeah,

163
00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:26.560
<v Speaker 7>that's what I was going to add. Dry wall looks.

164
00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:29.720
<v Speaker 7>Dry wall can look horrible to they finish. Yeah, that's

165
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:32.960
<v Speaker 7>that's exactly right. And here's but let me just go

166
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:33.759
<v Speaker 7>over the problem.

167
00:08:34.000 --> 00:08:37.360
<v Speaker 5>Let's assume Rick was right. Okay, what we have is

168
00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:40.639
<v Speaker 5>a guy that roughed in drywall. Rick came home and

169
00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:43.639
<v Speaker 5>didn't like it. Rick said, I'm not going to I

170
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:45.360
<v Speaker 5>don't want you to finish the job. You don't know

171
00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:48.039
<v Speaker 5>what you're doing. He has another guy come in after

172
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:51.000
<v Speaker 5>the fact, which I love when businesses do that because

173
00:08:51.039 --> 00:08:53.279
<v Speaker 5>most of them, no matter what, we'll say, yeah, we

174
00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:55.519
<v Speaker 5>got to do the whole thing over blah blah blah.

175
00:08:55.519 --> 00:08:58.159
<v Speaker 5>So now we have somebody telling him has to be

176
00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:01.960
<v Speaker 5>redone and he meanwhile out the whole job. So Rick

177
00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:03.960
<v Speaker 5>here's what I'm saying to you. I'm gonna tell you

178
00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:07.000
<v Speaker 5>the truth straight up. There is no way you're gonna

179
00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:10.080
<v Speaker 5>go back and get reimbursed for something when you did

180
00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:12.519
<v Speaker 5>not give them the opportunity to fix it, and when

181
00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:15.480
<v Speaker 5>you tore it down, and there's no way to examine.

182
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:17.960
<v Speaker 5>There's no way to say, wait a minute, this is

183
00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:21.440
<v Speaker 5>fine or this isn't fine, whether you're right or wrong,

184
00:09:21.759 --> 00:09:25.279
<v Speaker 5>there is no way now to reconstruct this case. Do

185
00:09:25.320 --> 00:09:27.360
<v Speaker 5>you have any picks we can at least look at.

186
00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:30.679
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, Tom, I forgot to tell you he did the

187
00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:33.360
<v Speaker 8>walls first instead of doing the ceiling, and he said

188
00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:35.720
<v Speaker 8>he was gonna cut it a half inch off the

189
00:09:35.759 --> 00:09:38.840
<v Speaker 8>ceiling and chuck the side wreck.

190
00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:42.639
<v Speaker 5>None of that, it matters, Rick, None of that matters.

191
00:09:42.960 --> 00:09:46.000
<v Speaker 5>The only thing that matters is the finished job. Okay,

192
00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:49.000
<v Speaker 5>I don't understand what made you want to quit on

193
00:09:49.080 --> 00:09:52.159
<v Speaker 5>this guy, Like, what was so bad when you came

194
00:09:52.200 --> 00:09:55.080
<v Speaker 5>back and looked at it. What was You're not a

195
00:09:55.159 --> 00:09:58.799
<v Speaker 5>dry waller, How do you know it was a bad job?

196
00:10:00.879 --> 00:10:04.279
<v Speaker 8>Hey, Tom, when he didn't do the sewing first, that's

197
00:10:04.320 --> 00:10:06.120
<v Speaker 8>that's when I knew he was in the drywall. You

198
00:10:06.159 --> 00:10:07.480
<v Speaker 8>always do the sealing first.

199
00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:11.720
<v Speaker 5>Okay, Rick, that is not sufficient reason to breach the contract.

200
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:13.879
<v Speaker 5>What what are you? What are you calling about today?

201
00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:15.639
<v Speaker 5>Is this guy coming after you for payment?

202
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:20.600
<v Speaker 8>No, he took six thousand dollars from me, and uh,

203
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:23.759
<v Speaker 8>he refuses to give me my money back for the drive.

204
00:10:24.120 --> 00:10:26.080
<v Speaker 8>I'm willing to pay him for the drywall and the

205
00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:28.519
<v Speaker 8>time that he spent doing it. But other than that,

206
00:10:29.159 --> 00:10:32.759
<v Speaker 8>he's still and that it was fifty five dollar yes, all.

207
00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:36.320
<v Speaker 5>Right, Rick, the entire drywall job quoted was how much?

208
00:10:38.360 --> 00:10:42.440
<v Speaker 8>The entire dry drywall job was twelve and eighty dollars?

209
00:10:42.720 --> 00:10:43.120
<v Speaker 12>All right?

210
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:45.559
<v Speaker 2>Okay? And you paid him half.

211
00:10:46.399 --> 00:10:49.559
<v Speaker 8>I did when he when he delivered fifty okay.

212
00:10:50.759 --> 00:10:53.840
<v Speaker 2>And you believe you should get that money back.

213
00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:59.000
<v Speaker 8>Oh yeah, because he didn't finish the job. He put

214
00:10:59.039 --> 00:10:59.879
<v Speaker 8>twenty sheets up.

215
00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:03.759
<v Speaker 5>Okay, you quit You fired him, Rick, You fired him,

216
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:08.320
<v Speaker 5>you didn't let him finish, right, Well, So, Rick, if

217
00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:10.320
<v Speaker 5>you suit him a small claims court, which would be

218
00:11:10.360 --> 00:11:13.080
<v Speaker 5>the logical venue, I'm going to tell you what's going

246
00:12:43.120 --> 00:12:46.360
<v Speaker 5>guy with the diywall. Here's the DELP. I'm just going

247
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:49.759
<v Speaker 5>to say this. In every single case, No, not every

248
00:12:49.799 --> 00:12:52.759
<v Speaker 5>single but in the hard to solve cases, people have

249
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:56.120
<v Speaker 5>done something. They've gone in, they got pissed off at

250
00:12:56.120 --> 00:12:59.840
<v Speaker 5>the contractor and fired him on the spot, unless it

251
00:12:59.879 --> 00:13:04.480
<v Speaker 5>is so totally egregious where they're doing irreparable harm to

252
00:13:04.519 --> 00:13:08.240
<v Speaker 5>your home, or it is so obviously bad that they

253
00:13:08.320 --> 00:13:11.440
<v Speaker 5>don't know what they're doing. Short of that, you can't

254
00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:16.080
<v Speaker 5>just breach the contract, and before you do you have

255
00:13:16.159 --> 00:13:20.279
<v Speaker 5>to have professional documentation. But he not just from people

256
00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:25.519
<v Speaker 5>that wanted he did something way worse, way worse. Yeah,

257
00:13:25.639 --> 00:13:26.639
<v Speaker 5>destroy the evidence.

258
00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:30.159
<v Speaker 7>No, he paid up front, or else he wouldn't be

259
00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:33.200
<v Speaker 7>in this position. He paid the guy sitting other rand

260
00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:35.639
<v Speaker 7>up front. He should have just paid for the drywall

261
00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:38.159
<v Speaker 7>when it showed up. Then pay the guy daily as

262
00:13:38.159 --> 00:13:42.120
<v Speaker 7>he's hanging it now. People, when we bring this up.

263
00:13:42.159 --> 00:13:45.559
<v Speaker 5>Inevitably, I'm going to get texts about paying up front,

264
00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:50.159
<v Speaker 5>both from contractors and consumers. Contractors say, well, I want

265
00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:52.600
<v Speaker 5>to make sure they're not just fooling around, because I

266
00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:55.360
<v Speaker 5>got to keep that slot open and I want to

267
00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:58.279
<v Speaker 5>make sure that they're real. The other ones say, some

268
00:13:58.440 --> 00:14:01.519
<v Speaker 5>contractors say, if I don't get money upfront, I'll never

269
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:05.080
<v Speaker 5>get paid, or homeowners are tough. Then homeowners will say

270
00:14:05.480 --> 00:14:07.799
<v Speaker 5>if I don't pay money upfront, they won't start. Or

271
00:14:07.879 --> 00:14:10.679
<v Speaker 5>if I do pay money upfront, I checked the guy

272
00:14:10.720 --> 00:14:12.279
<v Speaker 5>out and they never really check him out.

273
00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:13.559
<v Speaker 2>Here's the bottom line.

274
00:14:13.559 --> 00:14:15.279
<v Speaker 5>I'm just going to because people ask me this all

275
00:14:15.320 --> 00:14:18.080
<v Speaker 5>the time, and I have to lay it out first

276
00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:23.360
<v Speaker 5>and foremost. In my opinion, the best scenario is not

277
00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:27.679
<v Speaker 5>to pay a penny upfront, not a penny now. The

278
00:14:28.960 --> 00:14:34.000
<v Speaker 5>only exceptions would be if they are ordering materials for

279
00:14:34.279 --> 00:14:38.799
<v Speaker 5>your job. If you can verify that, then you pay

280
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:43.279
<v Speaker 5>a deposit on the materials and that would be it

281
00:14:43.440 --> 00:14:46.000
<v Speaker 5>now or when materials.

282
00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:48.720
<v Speaker 7>Are For example, I paid Gravina upfront. We got a

283
00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:52.000
<v Speaker 7>beautiful sliding door from them, and it was a custom

284
00:14:52.080 --> 00:14:54.360
<v Speaker 7>They had to measure it and they had to order

285
00:14:54.399 --> 00:14:56.840
<v Speaker 7>it from the manufacturer. And I think we paid twenty

286
00:14:56.879 --> 00:14:58.799
<v Speaker 7>percent down.

287
00:14:58.960 --> 00:15:03.080
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, now, Or when materials are delivered to your home

288
00:15:03.639 --> 00:15:06.320
<v Speaker 5>and it's earmarked for your job, it's okay to pay

289
00:15:06.600 --> 00:15:10.279
<v Speaker 5>when they're delivered. The other one is when work begins.

290
00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:13.399
<v Speaker 5>Part of that work could be plans. If they're drawing

291
00:15:13.480 --> 00:15:16.000
<v Speaker 5>up plans and they visit you several times before they

292
00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:19.600
<v Speaker 5>actually take a hammer and start doing stuff, Yes, it's

293
00:15:19.639 --> 00:15:22.399
<v Speaker 5>okay to pay as you go, but don't ever pay

294
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:25.879
<v Speaker 5>more or don't ever pay substantially less. You don't want

295
00:15:25.879 --> 00:15:28.440
<v Speaker 5>them to go broke either. But there's got to be

296
00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:31.000
<v Speaker 5>some give and take. So then people say, well, Tom,

297
00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:33.480
<v Speaker 5>you might say that, but people on your refer list

298
00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:36.840
<v Speaker 5>some of them demand money down. Yes they do, and

299
00:15:37.039 --> 00:15:40.399
<v Speaker 5>it's not against the law. It's not unethical, it's not

300
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:43.519
<v Speaker 5>there's nothing wrong with it.

301
00:15:43.519 --> 00:15:44.720
<v Speaker 2>It just puts you at risk.

302
00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:48.000
<v Speaker 5>Even a great person who takes money down, if they're

303
00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:52.159
<v Speaker 5>hit by a bus, it's over in many cases. So

304
00:15:52.399 --> 00:15:55.639
<v Speaker 5>I just say, try not to pay anything upfront, and

305
00:15:55.799 --> 00:16:01.000
<v Speaker 5>definitely don't pay just to get a slot in line. Contractors, Look,

306
00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:04.720
<v Speaker 5>I'm not paying you upfront. I'll pay you when work

307
00:16:04.759 --> 00:16:08.159
<v Speaker 5>begins or you show me where you're ordering materials and

308
00:16:08.200 --> 00:16:09.960
<v Speaker 5>I'll pay and that's.

309
00:16:09.799 --> 00:16:10.720
<v Speaker 2>Just the way I do it.

310
00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:15.399
<v Speaker 5>There are exceptions to everything. There are good people that

311
00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:18.840
<v Speaker 5>don't know how to manage money because most tradesmen are

312
00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:22.840
<v Speaker 5>not good businessmen, and good businessmen don't have the wherewithal

313
00:16:22.919 --> 00:16:26.759
<v Speaker 5>to do the trade. The most successful business is a

314
00:16:26.799 --> 00:16:30.600
<v Speaker 5>business where the people who are knowledgeable in the trade

315
00:16:31.240 --> 00:16:34.320
<v Speaker 5>do not try to run their own business because they

316
00:16:34.440 --> 00:16:37.279
<v Speaker 5>usually don't have both sets of skills. If you do,

317
00:16:37.360 --> 00:16:40.120
<v Speaker 5>more power to you. But what I try to get

318
00:16:40.320 --> 00:16:45.120
<v Speaker 5>over on people is you have two completely different sets

319
00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:49.320
<v Speaker 5>of businesses. One is common to all business that's the

320
00:16:49.480 --> 00:16:54.279
<v Speaker 5>acquisition of leads and the closing of sales. No matter

321
00:16:54.320 --> 00:16:57.759
<v Speaker 5>what business you're in, no matter what business you're in,

322
00:16:58.320 --> 00:17:01.759
<v Speaker 5>that is the first thing that happens, and it's common

323
00:17:01.799 --> 00:17:06.279
<v Speaker 5>to all businesses. Carl Shibe one time he had gutter helmet.

324
00:17:06.319 --> 00:17:10.119
<v Speaker 5>He owned gutter helmet at one time, and he said, Tom,

325
00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:14.079
<v Speaker 5>I'm in the business of gathering leads. He was not

326
00:17:14.279 --> 00:17:16.960
<v Speaker 5>in the gutter helmet business. He said that was the

327
00:17:17.079 --> 00:17:20.000
<v Speaker 5>trade and he left that up to his tradesmen.

328
00:17:20.400 --> 00:17:22.279
<v Speaker 2>So you have to have that mindset.

329
00:17:22.720 --> 00:17:26.920
<v Speaker 5>You are in the business of acquiring customers and keeping

330
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:31.000
<v Speaker 5>them happy. Then your tradesmen do the work or tradeswomen.

331
00:17:31.079 --> 00:17:32.559
<v Speaker 5>I don't know what the proper term is now, but

332
00:17:32.880 --> 00:17:35.160
<v Speaker 5>if you want to do both, you can. If you

333
00:17:35.200 --> 00:17:38.480
<v Speaker 5>want to do both, but you must run the business

334
00:17:38.599 --> 00:17:42.599
<v Speaker 5>like a business, and too many times people don't do that. Now,

335
00:17:42.680 --> 00:17:44.680
<v Speaker 5>here's the deal. If you're in business and you want

336
00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:48.319
<v Speaker 5>some ideas, give me a call. Most businesses, like Mark,

337
00:17:48.359 --> 00:17:51.720
<v Speaker 5>we've had it happen where we deliver leads to people.

338
00:17:51.759 --> 00:17:53.400
<v Speaker 2>They advertise with us, and.

339
00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:56.519
<v Speaker 5>Then all of a sudden they say, well, I'm not

340
00:17:56.559 --> 00:17:59.119
<v Speaker 5>so sure the ads are working out. We might be

341
00:17:59.160 --> 00:18:01.720
<v Speaker 5>spending too much money. And what do we find, Mark,

342
00:18:01.759 --> 00:18:05.640
<v Speaker 5>What do we find in those cases? Most of the time, well.

343
00:18:05.519 --> 00:18:06.799
<v Speaker 2>Know what we find? Yeah?

344
00:18:06.839 --> 00:18:09.279
<v Speaker 7>Well, I mean a lot of the time. Say it again, Tom,

345
00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:12.119
<v Speaker 7>I think I missed you. Oh yeah, no, no, that's gay.

346
00:18:12.400 --> 00:18:15.640
<v Speaker 5>So when people come to us now and then they say, well, Tom, Mark,

347
00:18:15.680 --> 00:18:17.920
<v Speaker 5>the ads aren't working you know, I mean, yeah, we're

348
00:18:17.960 --> 00:18:19.200
<v Speaker 5>not getting many jobs.

349
00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:21.680
<v Speaker 7>They end up coming back. And I'll tell you why

350
00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:24.119
<v Speaker 7>they end up coming back. We're in a very unique

351
00:18:24.160 --> 00:18:27.519
<v Speaker 7>situation the way we advertise. When we talk about a

352
00:18:27.559 --> 00:18:31.119
<v Speaker 7>company like I just talked about Gravina and someone out

353
00:18:31.119 --> 00:18:33.240
<v Speaker 7>there might go, wow, he was really happy with that

354
00:18:33.359 --> 00:18:36.079
<v Speaker 7>door blah blah blah, or I do a commercial for him,

355
00:18:36.200 --> 00:18:38.359
<v Speaker 7>or Tom does a commercial for him, or we do

356
00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:41.200
<v Speaker 7>a commercial for fix It twenty four to seven. That's

357
00:18:41.240 --> 00:18:44.079
<v Speaker 7>in here. They hear it, they want the deal. They

358
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:47.119
<v Speaker 7>don't remember the phone number because most likely they're driving.

359
00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:50.160
<v Speaker 7>They get back home, or they get to the restaurant

360
00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:53.440
<v Speaker 7>or wherever they're going, and they Google fix It twenty

361
00:18:53.480 --> 00:18:57.799
<v Speaker 7>four to seven or Gravina Windows, and then they take

362
00:18:57.839 --> 00:19:01.640
<v Speaker 7>that link from Google over and it looks like more

363
00:19:01.720 --> 00:19:05.480
<v Speaker 7>than not that Google sent a link. So what happens

364
00:19:05.559 --> 00:19:08.680
<v Speaker 7>is when they stopped the advertising with us, the Google

365
00:19:08.759 --> 00:19:11.960
<v Speaker 7>slows down. They got credit for everything we did. And

366
00:19:12.000 --> 00:19:14.839
<v Speaker 7>that's just a fact. That's not just this show. It's

367
00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:19.880
<v Speaker 7>virtually anybody on the radio or television these days. Google

368
00:19:19.920 --> 00:19:21.480
<v Speaker 7>gets credit for everything.

369
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:25.599
<v Speaker 5>Now, now here's another thing I want to say. One

370
00:19:25.640 --> 00:19:28.200
<v Speaker 5>of the things that we teach people because they say,

371
00:19:28.200 --> 00:19:31.440
<v Speaker 5>when the ads aren't working, we have founded many cases.

372
00:19:31.599 --> 00:19:33.920
<v Speaker 5>I'm going to give you a carpet company. One time,

373
00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:37.359
<v Speaker 5>this carpet company over on sata Fe they were advertising

374
00:19:37.400 --> 00:19:42.480
<v Speaker 5>with us, and I do what's called rejection research. You

375
00:19:42.519 --> 00:19:47.240
<v Speaker 5>know how many people do surveys on customers, satisfied customers

376
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:50.759
<v Speaker 5>or just customers. After you do business, you get a survey,

377
00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:54.119
<v Speaker 5>how did we do blah blah blah. The most important

378
00:19:54.119 --> 00:19:57.559
<v Speaker 5>research is not from customers who bought from you. It's

379
00:19:57.680 --> 00:20:02.160
<v Speaker 5>customers that rejected you. So I said to this carpet company,

380
00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:04.759
<v Speaker 5>let me do you a favor. I want you to

381
00:20:04.799 --> 00:20:07.359
<v Speaker 5>give me the leads that you had from our ads,

382
00:20:07.839 --> 00:20:11.599
<v Speaker 5>and then I want to find out I want an interview. Oh,

383
00:20:11.599 --> 00:20:13.440
<v Speaker 5>he says, wait a minute, you don't have to interview

384
00:20:13.480 --> 00:20:15.279
<v Speaker 5>to them. We have our questionnaire as we send to

385
00:20:15.319 --> 00:20:18.759
<v Speaker 5>all customers. I said, no, I want the ones who

386
00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:21.720
<v Speaker 5>called you and said we decided not to move forward,

387
00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:25.319
<v Speaker 5>or people who rejected you on your first call or visit,

388
00:20:25.839 --> 00:20:29.359
<v Speaker 5>because that told us more information than people who used you.

389
00:20:29.880 --> 00:20:33.759
<v Speaker 5>So here's what happened. I took a bunch of leads

390
00:20:34.039 --> 00:20:37.319
<v Speaker 5>that did not move forward, and I start asking questions.

391
00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:40.920
<v Speaker 5>And in this particular case, it all went through one

392
00:20:40.960 --> 00:20:44.079
<v Speaker 5>particular person. When they got to that person, they got

393
00:20:44.079 --> 00:20:46.960
<v Speaker 5>a bad taste in there. So all of their rejection

394
00:20:47.160 --> 00:20:51.720
<v Speaker 5>was coming from this one person. After and I said

395
00:20:51.720 --> 00:20:55.960
<v Speaker 5>to them, you're getting leads you're not closing leads. That's

396
00:20:56.039 --> 00:20:59.079
<v Speaker 5>not Tom's fault, that's not Mark's fault. When we do

397
00:20:59.160 --> 00:21:02.799
<v Speaker 5>a commercial, if people call you and you can't close

398
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:08.480
<v Speaker 5>the deal, or something happens that makes the consumer reject you,

399
00:21:08.480 --> 00:21:13.519
<v Speaker 5>you better find out why. Sometimes it's simple, sometimes it's complicated.

400
00:21:13.839 --> 00:21:17.319
<v Speaker 5>Sometimes it's your process, but for some reason or another,

401
00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:21.000
<v Speaker 5>they rejected you. So I'm telling businesses right now, keep

402
00:21:21.079 --> 00:21:24.119
<v Speaker 5>track of people who have not used you. Keep track

403
00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:28.039
<v Speaker 5>of them and do what's called rejection research. Because another

404
00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:31.200
<v Speaker 5>thing they don't mind telling you because they didn't use you.

405
00:21:31.480 --> 00:21:32.440
<v Speaker 2>They're not afraid of.

406
00:21:32.400 --> 00:21:34.279
<v Speaker 5>You being angry, and they're not afraid of you not

407
00:21:34.319 --> 00:21:37.359
<v Speaker 5>finishing the job. You can say, listen, could you help

408
00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:40.720
<v Speaker 5>me out. People love doing this too. If you say

409
00:21:40.720 --> 00:21:44.160
<v Speaker 5>to a customer, Mary Jane, I noticed that you didn't

410
00:21:44.240 --> 00:21:47.200
<v Speaker 5>use us, Could you tell me why? I'm really trying

411
00:21:47.200 --> 00:21:50.960
<v Speaker 5>to improve my company? What was it that turned you off?

412
00:21:51.240 --> 00:21:55.079
<v Speaker 5>Or what was it that you found better somewhere else?

413
00:21:55.400 --> 00:21:57.799
<v Speaker 5>And they'll be completely straight and open with you. So

414
00:21:58.160 --> 00:21:59.960
<v Speaker 5>many times it's price go ahead.

415
00:22:00.440 --> 00:22:04.079
<v Speaker 7>Something interesting. When I went to good Year Store manager school,

416
00:22:04.119 --> 00:22:06.200
<v Speaker 7>I mean, I'm you know, I'm like twenty two at

417
00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:06.839
<v Speaker 7>this time or.

418
00:22:06.880 --> 00:22:07.559
<v Speaker 2>Something like that.

419
00:22:08.279 --> 00:22:11.839
<v Speaker 7>They taught exactly that, and then as I bought good

420
00:22:11.880 --> 00:22:14.440
<v Speaker 7>years and owned them over the years, I would force

421
00:22:14.559 --> 00:22:17.599
<v Speaker 7>my salespeople to do it. So someone comes in looking

422
00:22:17.599 --> 00:22:21.000
<v Speaker 7>for tires, You go out, you talk, you measure their tires.

423
00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:22.839
<v Speaker 2>Everybody's bought tires, you know how it goes.

424
00:22:23.160 --> 00:22:25.839
<v Speaker 7>And then you give them a price and then they're like, okay,

425
00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:29.039
<v Speaker 7>well i'll get back to you. The hardest thing to do,

426
00:22:29.200 --> 00:22:32.279
<v Speaker 7>but the most important thing to do right then and there.

427
00:22:32.480 --> 00:22:35.160
<v Speaker 2>Is walk out as they left the store, catch.

428
00:22:34.920 --> 00:22:37.319
<v Speaker 7>Them up by the car, and ask them why did

429
00:22:37.359 --> 00:22:38.359
<v Speaker 7>I lose this sale?

430
00:22:38.359 --> 00:22:40.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm just curious.

431
00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:47.440
<v Speaker 5>And that's great, that's absolutely and I learned that. Yeah,

432
00:22:47.519 --> 00:22:50.640
<v Speaker 5>people loved telling you what.

433
00:22:50.519 --> 00:22:52.319
<v Speaker 2>You did wrong or what you did today.

434
00:22:52.359 --> 00:22:53.960
<v Speaker 7>I was on a call, well hold on, hold on,

435
00:22:54.079 --> 00:22:56.960
<v Speaker 7>let me a lot of times, it'll be priced. They

436
00:22:57.000 --> 00:22:59.440
<v Speaker 7>had looked at the price, they were happy with me,

437
00:22:59.759 --> 00:23:02.240
<v Speaker 7>the salesperson. They look at the price and they go, well,

438
00:23:02.519 --> 00:23:05.680
<v Speaker 7>I want to shop around, which then gives me or

439
00:23:05.720 --> 00:23:09.720
<v Speaker 7>my salespeople an opportunity to say, well, if you do

440
00:23:09.839 --> 00:23:12.799
<v Speaker 7>find a lower price for the same tire, well then

441
00:23:12.880 --> 00:23:15.279
<v Speaker 7>I'll be happy to beat it by x amount. If

442
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:17.799
<v Speaker 7>it's valid, I really want your business, or I'll throw

443
00:23:17.839 --> 00:23:21.039
<v Speaker 7>into free oil change or added value of a free alignment.

444
00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:23.799
<v Speaker 7>It gives me a second chance or my salespeople a

445
00:23:23.880 --> 00:23:27.559
<v Speaker 7>second chance to bring that customer back in. You guys

446
00:23:27.640 --> 00:23:28.279
<v Speaker 7>must go through.

447
00:23:28.359 --> 00:23:33.359
<v Speaker 5>So if anyone wants rejection, if anyone wants rejection, research,

448
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:34.720
<v Speaker 5>we'll do it.

449
00:23:34.920 --> 00:23:35.880
<v Speaker 2>But now I'll fix it.

450
00:23:35.920 --> 00:23:38.480
<v Speaker 5>By the way, speaking of fix it, the HVAC, business,

451
00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:41.720
<v Speaker 5>plumbing and electric, all of that, they are so price

452
00:23:41.799 --> 00:23:46.519
<v Speaker 5>conscious people. People are shocked at prices. Okay, that's the

453
00:23:46.559 --> 00:23:49.200
<v Speaker 5>first thing, and then they try to figure out what

454
00:23:49.279 --> 00:23:52.720
<v Speaker 5>it should be. And people who are in business correctly

455
00:23:53.039 --> 00:23:58.240
<v Speaker 5>with the right equipment, insurance laws, compliance with local laws,

456
00:23:58.240 --> 00:24:02.680
<v Speaker 5>building departments to run vans, and there's a cost of

457
00:24:02.720 --> 00:24:04.920
<v Speaker 5>doing business. One thing we have found there was a

458
00:24:04.920 --> 00:24:09.079
<v Speaker 5>guy advertising furnaces one time at a ridiculous price. This

459
00:24:09.200 --> 00:24:11.279
<v Speaker 5>was many years ago, but it was twelve hundred dollars

460
00:24:11.480 --> 00:24:14.039
<v Speaker 5>and all the others were four and six thousand. So

461
00:24:14.119 --> 00:24:17.039
<v Speaker 5>the guy that went out for twelve hundred dollars did furnaces.

462
00:24:17.359 --> 00:24:19.799
<v Speaker 5>He crashed and burned. He could not keep up with

463
00:24:19.799 --> 00:24:21.480
<v Speaker 5>the demand because it was so cheap. But once he

464
00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:23.759
<v Speaker 5>did it, if there were any problems. He had no

465
00:24:23.880 --> 00:24:26.599
<v Speaker 5>margin there to come back and fix things. He crashed

466
00:24:26.640 --> 00:24:29.440
<v Speaker 5>and burned, and people ended up with a lot of

467
00:24:29.480 --> 00:24:33.680
<v Speaker 5>stuff that wasn't working properly. Anyway, today, speaking of fix it,

468
00:24:35.000 --> 00:24:38.519
<v Speaker 5>Hannah helped me out here. You have ten slots open,

469
00:24:38.839 --> 00:24:42.880
<v Speaker 5>ye for this is one, and I hope I can

470
00:24:42.920 --> 00:24:45.640
<v Speaker 5>be the eleventh. I don't want to take away from

471
00:24:45.640 --> 00:24:48.920
<v Speaker 5>my consumers, but I hope I can be the eleventh. Now,

472
00:24:48.960 --> 00:24:52.000
<v Speaker 5>what they're doing, this is something everyone should think about.

473
00:24:52.759 --> 00:24:54.559
<v Speaker 2>Tell them what it is? Ten percent off?

474
00:24:55.000 --> 00:24:57.960
<v Speaker 6>What so this is ten percent off like you said,

475
00:24:58.079 --> 00:25:02.640
<v Speaker 6>ten spots only for an installation for a home stand

476
00:25:02.640 --> 00:25:04.559
<v Speaker 6>by generator. What you're also going to get for this

477
00:25:05.079 --> 00:25:07.680
<v Speaker 6>is a free consultation designed so our technician is going

478
00:25:07.720 --> 00:25:11.480
<v Speaker 6>to come out Tom. It's fascinating. When we started doing

479
00:25:11.559 --> 00:25:15.400
<v Speaker 6>the service, we thought this would be just for rural homeowners.

480
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:16.680
<v Speaker 6>It has become one of.

481
00:25:16.599 --> 00:25:19.519
<v Speaker 2>Our Now are weirdos that are waiting for anarchy?

482
00:25:19.720 --> 00:25:23.440
<v Speaker 5>You're right many backup generators but you don't know, but

483
00:25:23.559 --> 00:25:27.000
<v Speaker 5>backup generators used to be for people who were paranoid.

484
00:25:27.200 --> 00:25:29.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean really well that that.

485
00:25:29.119 --> 00:25:31.480
<v Speaker 6>Was what we thought, right when we look at the numbers,

486
00:25:31.960 --> 00:25:34.319
<v Speaker 6>the majority of our clients are folks that are in

487
00:25:34.359 --> 00:25:39.039
<v Speaker 6>the metroplex in cities. They are nervous about those rolling blackouts.

488
00:25:39.079 --> 00:25:41.079
<v Speaker 6>They don't want to deal with it, and they don't

489
00:25:41.079 --> 00:25:44.160
<v Speaker 6>want to be dependent on the grid. It's fascinating who

490
00:25:44.160 --> 00:25:46.240
<v Speaker 6>the demo is and what it's doing for their peace

491
00:25:46.279 --> 00:25:48.079
<v Speaker 6>of mind. But then also, I mean I could talk

492
00:25:48.079 --> 00:25:51.119
<v Speaker 6>about this forever property values. One of the best things

493
00:25:51.119 --> 00:25:52.200
<v Speaker 6>you can do for your home.

494
00:25:53.920 --> 00:25:56.440
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and by the way, they have a great electrical department,

495
00:25:56.480 --> 00:25:57.599
<v Speaker 5>a backup generator.

496
00:25:58.079 --> 00:25:59.200
<v Speaker 2>Can they can handle that?

497
00:25:59.559 --> 00:26:02.759
<v Speaker 5>And so right now, ten slots for ten percent off

498
00:26:03.119 --> 00:26:07.279

528
00:27:46.079 --> 00:27:48.759
<v Speaker 5>having interesting topic here and I got a text here

529
00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:54.359
<v Speaker 5>saying that they have found that if you put money

530
00:27:54.440 --> 00:27:57.240
<v Speaker 5>up front, Sometimes you're put to the back of the

531
00:27:57.279 --> 00:28:01.880
<v Speaker 5>line because they already have money on you. And then

532
00:28:02.119 --> 00:28:05.519
<v Speaker 5>people who won't pay upfront but will only pay when

533
00:28:05.559 --> 00:28:09.640
<v Speaker 5>the job is done or the job is started, they start,

534
00:28:09.680 --> 00:28:12.279
<v Speaker 5>they tend to go to those people first. Now I

535
00:28:12.319 --> 00:28:14.559
<v Speaker 5>don't know if that's true or not, but I do

536
00:28:14.680 --> 00:28:19.319
<v Speaker 5>know that most every single problem that we have had

537
00:28:19.799 --> 00:28:22.599
<v Speaker 5>that's complicated starts. First of all, I'm going to tell

538
00:28:22.599 --> 00:28:27.759
<v Speaker 5>you the anatomy of the problem, the very first problem.

539
00:28:28.160 --> 00:28:31.880
<v Speaker 5>If you took a universe of problems and picked out ones,

540
00:28:32.440 --> 00:28:38.480
<v Speaker 5>the most common characteristic of a consumer ripoff is first,

541
00:28:39.359 --> 00:28:45.680
<v Speaker 5>the consumer is solicited. Now I'm not saying in all

542
00:28:45.799 --> 00:28:49.119
<v Speaker 5>cases when you're solicited it's bad.

543
00:28:49.200 --> 00:28:53.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying it's the first sign usually.

544
00:28:53.960 --> 00:28:57.839
<v Speaker 5>So if, in other words, if you took a thousand

545
00:28:57.920 --> 00:29:02.839
<v Speaker 5>cases of ripoffs, you would find that the vast majority

546
00:29:02.880 --> 00:29:07.880
<v Speaker 5>of them were when businesses contacted the consumer, not when

547
00:29:07.880 --> 00:29:09.000
<v Speaker 5>the consumer went.

548
00:29:08.880 --> 00:29:11.079
<v Speaker 2>Shopping and contacted the business.

549
00:29:11.559 --> 00:29:16.640
<v Speaker 5>That's because your chance of finding a ripoff is pretty

550
00:29:16.680 --> 00:29:22.000
<v Speaker 5>small when you go shopping, because most businesses are not ripoffs.

551
00:29:22.680 --> 00:29:26.759
<v Speaker 5>But if a company contacts you, that means either they

552
00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:30.839
<v Speaker 5>don't have enough leads, they're doing something wrong, they're not growing,

553
00:29:31.119 --> 00:29:34.480
<v Speaker 5>so they contact you when you get a phone call

554
00:29:34.799 --> 00:29:38.079
<v Speaker 5>or an email or a text from a company that's

555
00:29:38.119 --> 00:29:43.079
<v Speaker 5>being solicited. And most problems that are ripoffs start out

556
00:29:43.119 --> 00:29:48.160
<v Speaker 5>with consumers being solicited. That's number one. Number two would

557
00:29:48.160 --> 00:29:52.759
<v Speaker 5>be the money upfront. Almost every single major.

558
00:29:52.519 --> 00:29:57.400
<v Speaker 2>Problem we have is where the consumer paid money upfront.

559
00:29:57.960 --> 00:30:03.319
<v Speaker 5>And that's again because businesses don't know cash flow. They

560
00:30:03.400 --> 00:30:06.720
<v Speaker 5>take money, and many times that money is used for

561
00:30:06.799 --> 00:30:09.440
<v Speaker 5>the current job they're on and not it's not put

562
00:30:09.480 --> 00:30:13.119
<v Speaker 5>away for yours. There is a law in Colorado called

563
00:30:13.119 --> 00:30:16.279
<v Speaker 5>the Contractor's Trust Act, and it simply says, if you

564
00:30:16.359 --> 00:30:20.119
<v Speaker 5>take money for Marc and Suzanne's deck, you better put

565
00:30:20.119 --> 00:30:22.599
<v Speaker 5>it away and use it for their deck. You can

566
00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:25.839
<v Speaker 5>co mingle funds, but you should have an accounting of

567
00:30:25.880 --> 00:30:28.240
<v Speaker 5>each and every deposit and what it's being held for.

568
00:30:28.960 --> 00:30:32.240
<v Speaker 5>And that is an enforceable law that can actually become

569
00:30:32.279 --> 00:30:36.240
<v Speaker 5>a crime if a contractor continues to do it. Most

570
00:30:36.319 --> 00:30:40.240
<v Speaker 5>people don't pursue it, and frankly, most most.

571
00:30:40.119 --> 00:30:43.880
<v Speaker 7>The issues go ahead don't pursue it. Most yes, right,

572
00:30:44.359 --> 00:30:48.319
<v Speaker 7>police don't pursue it. Hey, Tom, Yeah, they don't take

573
00:30:48.559 --> 00:30:50.319
<v Speaker 7>They don't know what to do. With problems like that.

574
00:30:50.599 --> 00:30:53.200
<v Speaker 5>But if contractors take your money and they don't put

575
00:30:53.200 --> 00:30:56.160
<v Speaker 5>it in trust, it is more than just a civil problem.

576
00:30:56.200 --> 00:30:57.079
<v Speaker 5>Go ahead and dot.

577
00:30:57.000 --> 00:30:59.039
<v Speaker 12>Theh somewhere between one and two.

578
00:30:59.680 --> 00:31:02.880
<v Speaker 13>I think one of the biggest problems is people not

579
00:31:03.119 --> 00:31:06.200
<v Speaker 13>having or not reading the contract.

580
00:31:07.440 --> 00:31:10.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh after, I'm absolutely you know.

581
00:31:11.279 --> 00:31:13.720
<v Speaker 13>Even if it's a reputable company, you want to know

582
00:31:13.759 --> 00:31:16.519
<v Speaker 13>what the terms and the conditions are so that you're

583
00:31:16.559 --> 00:31:18.319
<v Speaker 13>aware of what you kind of cannot do.

584
00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:20.720
<v Speaker 7>I want to say something to that, and I agree

585
00:31:20.720 --> 00:31:23.119
<v Speaker 7>with Doc one hundred percent, especially if you don't know

586
00:31:23.160 --> 00:31:26.640
<v Speaker 7>the people. But I just had Genesis repaint the entire

587
00:31:27.079 --> 00:31:29.680
<v Speaker 7>inside of our house. You know, we're talking like a

588
00:31:29.720 --> 00:31:32.960
<v Speaker 7>twelve thousand dollars deal. I never looked at a contract.

589
00:31:33.000 --> 00:31:35.359
<v Speaker 7>I never signed a contract. I know Mark, I know

590
00:31:35.440 --> 00:31:39.160
<v Speaker 7>the owner, I know Genesis. They finished it looked good. Yeah,

591
00:31:39.200 --> 00:31:39.759
<v Speaker 7>but that's not it.

592
00:31:40.079 --> 00:31:42.240
<v Speaker 2>But say way with Excel.

593
00:31:41.960 --> 00:31:44.000
<v Speaker 7>Roofing when they came out and did my roof the

594
00:31:44.039 --> 00:31:46.119
<v Speaker 7>same way if I had fixed it out to do

595
00:31:46.240 --> 00:31:48.559
<v Speaker 7>my furnace. I mean, I know, I mean they have

596
00:31:48.640 --> 00:31:51.000
<v Speaker 7>those tablets and stuff, but I wouldn't reach through it.

597
00:31:51.079 --> 00:31:53.319
<v Speaker 2>I just sign it. The people I trust.

598
00:31:53.359 --> 00:31:56.000
<v Speaker 7>I trust, But if I'm dealing with somebody I've never

599
00:31:56.119 --> 00:31:59.920
<v Speaker 7>dealt before, or someone someone maybe I've dealt with before,

600
00:32:00.119 --> 00:32:03.240

602
00:32:09.240 --> 00:32:12.000
<v Speaker 7>say something else when we were talking to Hannah. You know,

603
00:32:12.160 --> 00:32:15.279

621
00:33:05.559 --> 00:33:08.519
<v Speaker 7>I'm Tom Martino. Mark was telling a story. Go ahead, Mark, Well,

622
00:33:08.519 --> 00:33:10.720
<v Speaker 7>here's the deal. I was singing about home services. A

623
00:33:10.759 --> 00:33:13.279
<v Speaker 7>lot of people call up and they constantly say, I

624
00:33:13.319 --> 00:33:15.559
<v Speaker 7>can't believe it. Last time I bought a furnace, it

625
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:17.279
<v Speaker 7>was three thousand dollars.

626
00:33:17.319 --> 00:33:19.240
<v Speaker 2>Now there's six seven, eight thousand dollars.

627
00:33:19.480 --> 00:33:21.960
<v Speaker 7>Well, I started thinking about if you go back, it's

628
00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:24.640
<v Speaker 7>one of those items you buy, whether an ac or furnace,

629
00:33:24.880 --> 00:33:28.440
<v Speaker 7>typically they're gonna last fifteen years, maybe even twenty. So

630
00:33:28.480 --> 00:33:31.440
<v Speaker 7>the last time people bought them was like two thousand

631
00:33:31.480 --> 00:33:34.160
<v Speaker 7>and five or two thy ten. You know, in two

632
00:33:34.200 --> 00:33:36.799
<v Speaker 7>thousand and five, I could buy in brand new Hondai

633
00:33:36.799 --> 00:33:41.519
<v Speaker 7>Elantra for like eleven thousand dollars. Now they're twenty three thousand.

634
00:33:41.640 --> 00:33:45.319
<v Speaker 7>Eggs were like eighty nine cents. Bacon was ninety nine

635
00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:47.799
<v Speaker 7>cents a pound. I mean, think about it. We kind

636
00:33:47.799 --> 00:33:51.519
<v Speaker 7>of complain about prices, and the reason people complain about

637
00:33:51.599 --> 00:33:55.279
<v Speaker 7>big items, including cars, anything that's over a few grand

638
00:33:55.720 --> 00:33:58.920
<v Speaker 7>is because it's massive. But when something used to cost

639
00:33:58.960 --> 00:34:02.319
<v Speaker 7>a dollar and now with seven dollars, it doesn't seem

640
00:34:02.319 --> 00:34:03.519
<v Speaker 7>to bother us as much.

641
00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:05.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean does that make sense to you? I get it.

642
00:34:05.960 --> 00:34:10.760
<v Speaker 5>It's the it makes absolute, absolute, complete sense to me.

643
00:34:11.199 --> 00:34:11.760
<v Speaker 2>Pricing.

644
00:34:12.000 --> 00:34:14.920
<v Speaker 5>But listen, it's it's always been the most tricky thing

645
00:34:14.920 --> 00:34:17.960
<v Speaker 5>in the world is pricing. And Hannah will tell you

646
00:34:18.079 --> 00:34:20.559

647
00:34:20.760 --> 00:34:23.599
<v Speaker 5>when they do that thirty nine dollars Extreme Clean, they're

648
00:34:23.599 --> 00:34:26.320
<v Speaker 5>losing money on every one of them that they just

649
00:34:26.440 --> 00:34:28.880

651
00:34:33.039 --> 00:34:35.960
<v Speaker 5>And they don't make money on that forty nine dollars

652
00:34:36.000 --> 00:34:39.039
<v Speaker 5>some pump service or the thirty nine dollars Extreme Clean.

677
00:36:07.559 --> 00:36:10.039
<v Speaker 5>talking a lot about well not a lot, but I've

678
00:36:10.039 --> 00:36:11.880
<v Speaker 5>been talking about my surgery.

679
00:36:12.159 --> 00:36:13.119
<v Speaker 2>I had surgery.

680
00:36:14.440 --> 00:36:16.719
<v Speaker 5>It's called the Whipple procedure, and it's because I was

681
00:36:17.639 --> 00:36:23.480
<v Speaker 5>basically diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and we had and we

682
00:36:23.599 --> 00:36:26.639
<v Speaker 5>kept it quiet in the beginning, of course, and then

683
00:36:26.679 --> 00:36:29.760
<v Speaker 5>I took several rounds of chemotherapy and then had surgery

684
00:36:29.760 --> 00:36:32.920
<v Speaker 5>and I was declared cancer free, one of the rare

685
00:36:33.000 --> 00:36:35.519
<v Speaker 5>cases where they can get it all. It was totally

686
00:36:35.519 --> 00:36:39.000
<v Speaker 5>operable and isolated. But through that all I would talked

687
00:36:39.039 --> 00:36:41.840
<v Speaker 5>about my sisters coming out. One is a nurse, one

688
00:36:41.840 --> 00:36:45.320
<v Speaker 5>as a registered respiratory therapist, and I said, they're going

689
00:36:45.400 --> 00:36:47.039
<v Speaker 5>to come out and take care of me. So Mark

690
00:36:47.159 --> 00:36:48.920
<v Speaker 5>was talking to him off the air and for my

691
00:36:49.000 --> 00:36:52.280
<v Speaker 5>YouTube morons, I'm going to put a photo up here.

692
00:36:52.360 --> 00:36:54.480
<v Speaker 5>Not a photo, I mean, I'm going to put up

693
00:36:54.519 --> 00:36:59.719
<v Speaker 5>a picture. And there they are my elderly sisters. That's

694
00:36:59.719 --> 00:37:01.679
<v Speaker 5>what you the way the baby, aren't you?

695
00:37:01.800 --> 00:37:02.199
<v Speaker 2>They are.

696
00:37:03.239 --> 00:37:05.679
<v Speaker 5>They're both still I'm next to the baby, but they're

697
00:37:05.719 --> 00:37:09.679
<v Speaker 5>both still practicing. So you see those are my sisters.

698
00:37:09.719 --> 00:37:12.159
<v Speaker 5>If you are in full screen at wide shot, there

699
00:37:12.199 --> 00:37:15.840
<v Speaker 5>you go. Yeah it is, it's coming up full screen.

700
00:37:15.880 --> 00:37:18.159
<v Speaker 5>How come they look so much better than you? Are

701
00:37:18.199 --> 00:37:18.960
<v Speaker 5>you adapted?

702
00:37:19.239 --> 00:37:22.239
<v Speaker 2>Well they do? Yeah, I know. It's amazing.

703
00:37:22.320 --> 00:37:24.719
<v Speaker 5>Anyway, they've been taking care of me, and part of

704
00:37:24.760 --> 00:37:27.800
<v Speaker 5>that is getting used to getting used to a new stomach,

705
00:37:27.880 --> 00:37:31.199
<v Speaker 5>because twenty five percent of my stomach's gone. But hey,

706
00:37:31.760 --> 00:37:34.760
<v Speaker 5>it's happening. It's just that I'm so used to scarfing food.

707
00:37:35.159 --> 00:37:38.679
<v Speaker 5>That's my biggest problem. I eat eat before, I before

708
00:37:38.679 --> 00:37:40.760
<v Speaker 5>I I don't know if you guys do that, but

709
00:37:40.880 --> 00:37:43.440
<v Speaker 5>if you eat slowly, you get a more accurate representation

710
00:37:43.519 --> 00:37:45.880
<v Speaker 5>of whether you're full or not when I slam food.

711
00:37:45.880 --> 00:37:47.760
<v Speaker 5>I'm so used to slamming food. I don't know why

712
00:37:47.800 --> 00:37:50.039
<v Speaker 5>I've always done it. I think part of that's being

713
00:37:50.079 --> 00:37:52.440
<v Speaker 5>in radio. You know, you get a break for you know,

714
00:37:52.480 --> 00:37:54.559
<v Speaker 5>when we have pizza day, for example, Mark on a

715
00:37:54.599 --> 00:37:57.079
<v Speaker 5>card day. You know we have two minutes. You got

716
00:37:57.199 --> 00:37:58.679
<v Speaker 5>to you gotta take a piece of pizza.

717
00:37:58.880 --> 00:37:59.039
<v Speaker 2>Right.

718
00:37:59.320 --> 00:38:02.360
<v Speaker 7>So anyway, there they are, Hey, wilcome with Tom Paine

719
00:38:02.400 --> 00:38:04.360
<v Speaker 7>in the ass as a kid, I I really want

720
00:38:04.400 --> 00:38:04.599
<v Speaker 7>to know.

721
00:38:04.679 --> 00:38:05.840
<v Speaker 2>Put one of them on a mic.

722
00:38:06.000 --> 00:38:07.480
<v Speaker 4>No, No, not at all.

723
00:38:07.599 --> 00:38:07.920
<v Speaker 15>I don't.

724
00:38:08.440 --> 00:38:11.960
<v Speaker 7>Okay, my lad detector's blinking.

725
00:38:12.679 --> 00:38:13.800
<v Speaker 2>I am going to discuss.

726
00:38:14.239 --> 00:38:17.079
<v Speaker 5>I'm going to give away one secret that is an

727
00:38:17.119 --> 00:38:20.360
<v Speaker 5>honest to God's secret of how I was as a kid.

728
00:38:20.639 --> 00:38:23.840
<v Speaker 5>I was a weirdo about privacy, even as a three

729
00:38:23.840 --> 00:38:26.159
<v Speaker 5>and four year old. Okay, Now they're going to tell

730
00:38:26.199 --> 00:38:29.679
<v Speaker 5>you what I demanded when I went potty.

731
00:38:29.840 --> 00:38:30.760
<v Speaker 2>And now we did not.

732
00:38:30.760 --> 00:38:34.960
<v Speaker 5>Rehearse this, so tell no seriously, this was that we're

733
00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:37.280
<v Speaker 5>talking four years old, okay, or whenever you go potty

734
00:38:38.519 --> 00:38:39.719
<v Speaker 5>two or three, tell.

735
00:38:41.400 --> 00:38:43.480
<v Speaker 2>Right in there, get get right.

736
00:38:43.599 --> 00:38:48.800
<v Speaker 16>Yeah, we had to make a tent over his potty chair.

737
00:38:49.039 --> 00:38:52.159
<v Speaker 16>Oh lord, so he would have his privacy and he

738
00:38:52.199 --> 00:38:54.280
<v Speaker 16>wouldn't come out until he was finished.

739
00:38:54.480 --> 00:39:01.000
<v Speaker 2>You know, he still does add into studio mark make

740
00:39:01.079 --> 00:39:01.440
<v Speaker 2>a tent.

741
00:39:01.960 --> 00:39:03.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that's exactly right.

742
00:39:04.000 --> 00:39:06.840
<v Speaker 16>So if you ever visit and he has a tent

743
00:39:07.039 --> 00:39:07.800
<v Speaker 16>over him.

744
00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:09.199
<v Speaker 6>Run, Yeah.

745
00:39:09.239 --> 00:39:13.519
<v Speaker 5>So seriously, I had a potty and they would make

746
00:39:13.559 --> 00:39:15.800
<v Speaker 5>a tent with a blanket, now, or I wouldn't go.

747
00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:18.719
<v Speaker 7>Now, I got Dmitri next to me, and I've got

748
00:39:18.800 --> 00:39:22.280
<v Speaker 7>Doc across from me, and this is very in line

749
00:39:22.320 --> 00:39:22.559
<v Speaker 7>with that.

750
00:39:23.000 --> 00:39:26.159
<v Speaker 2>There's one bathroom in his house that no one can.

751
00:39:26.079 --> 00:39:29.960
<v Speaker 7>Use except for Tom, so that basically is the same

752
00:39:30.039 --> 00:39:31.400
<v Speaker 7>thing as a grown up.

753
00:39:32.639 --> 00:39:33.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we just called.

00:39:33.440 --> 00:39:38.800
<v Speaker 5>The yeah, the executive bath anyway, So give us a

755
00:39:38.840 --> 00:39:40.920

756
00:39:40.920 --> 00:39:44.280
<v Speaker 5>one three eight two five five questions, problem complaints and

757
00:39:44.519 --> 00:39:47.840
<v Speaker 5>one of the things that I wanted to talk about.

758
00:39:48.559 --> 00:39:51.400
<v Speaker 5>And let me let me bring up the window because

759
00:39:52.320 --> 00:39:55.960
<v Speaker 5>people are paying. Let me let me grab it here

760
00:39:56.280 --> 00:40:00.360
<v Speaker 5>for for streaming. Right, Okay, there are so many different

761
00:40:02.239 --> 00:40:03.280
<v Speaker 5>what do you call hubs?

762
00:40:03.400 --> 00:40:03.599
<v Speaker 1>Right?

763
00:40:03.880 --> 00:40:06.000
<v Speaker 2>You have hubs that are built into the Samsung.

764
00:40:06.360 --> 00:40:09.000
<v Speaker 5>You have hubs that are built in, well not built in,

765
00:40:09.039 --> 00:40:11.760
<v Speaker 5>but they're hub sticks. So you take any TV, you

766
00:40:11.800 --> 00:40:14.920
<v Speaker 5>put a stick in, a USB stick, and that USB

767
00:40:15.039 --> 00:40:18.159
<v Speaker 5>becomes your hub. And one of the big problems people

768
00:40:18.199 --> 00:40:23.360
<v Speaker 5>are having that they they're outdated so soon and they're

769
00:40:23.400 --> 00:40:26.480
<v Speaker 5>not easy to update. But if you have a hubstick,

770
00:40:26.880 --> 00:40:29.360
<v Speaker 5>I'd like to know from people what hub do they

771
00:40:29.480 --> 00:40:32.000
<v Speaker 5>use and is there one that beats the hell out

772
00:40:32.039 --> 00:40:34.320
<v Speaker 5>of all of them? I would like a super stick

773
00:40:34.360 --> 00:40:36.800
<v Speaker 5>that you can put in and not have to worry

774
00:40:37.159 --> 00:40:40.159
<v Speaker 5>and when you change TVs, you simply plug it in.

775
00:40:40.039 --> 00:40:44.239
<v Speaker 2>And it works. Fire sticks, smart hubs. Is that what

776
00:40:44.320 --> 00:40:44.639
<v Speaker 2>you like?

777
00:40:44.960 --> 00:40:48.280
<v Speaker 7>Oh, we have them everywhere stick Yeah. Yeah, you can

778
00:40:48.400 --> 00:40:50.360
<v Speaker 7>go to a hotel and plug it in. I mean,

779
00:40:50.400 --> 00:40:53.800
<v Speaker 7>there's nothing to it. It's a USB stick. We take it,

780
00:40:55.039 --> 00:40:58.239
<v Speaker 7>you take it with you. Yeah, we generally. I generally

781
00:40:58.360 --> 00:41:01.480
<v Speaker 7>always have one. It just anywhere I'm at, Yes.

782
00:41:01.800 --> 00:41:03.440
<v Speaker 2>Where I'm at, yes, Okay.

783
00:41:03.639 --> 00:41:07.719
<v Speaker 5>So these hubs give you access to all of the apps.

784
00:41:08.039 --> 00:41:10.639
<v Speaker 5>I don't watch regular TV. I don't even have regular

785
00:41:10.760 --> 00:41:11.920
<v Speaker 5>cable streaming.

786
00:41:12.119 --> 00:41:12.920
<v Speaker 2>What I use is.

787
00:41:12.880 --> 00:41:16.480
<v Speaker 5>YouTube TV for what they call live TV, and then

788
00:41:16.519 --> 00:41:19.400
<v Speaker 5>I use all the apps, the different apps and my

789
00:41:19.599 --> 00:41:23.039
<v Speaker 5>smart hubs. The one problem that I don't like, I'd

790
00:41:23.119 --> 00:41:27.519
<v Speaker 5>like to have the same hub on every device, because.

791
00:41:27.559 --> 00:41:30.920
<v Speaker 2>Really, fires go to your home, your other home.

792
00:41:31.360 --> 00:41:34.800
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, just one stick if that and that's what you're saying,

793
00:41:34.840 --> 00:41:38.280
<v Speaker 5>you do you have a stick every that will duplicate exactly.

794
00:41:38.440 --> 00:41:41.039
<v Speaker 7>Every monitor we have has a fire stick in it.

795
00:41:41.119 --> 00:41:44.360
<v Speaker 7>Other people use just Ruku. I mean it doesn't matter.

796
00:41:44.440 --> 00:41:46.800
<v Speaker 7>I mean, but I know what you're saying. Every I

797
00:41:46.840 --> 00:41:50.119
<v Speaker 7>don't use the Samsung hub built into the TV. We

798
00:41:50.280 --> 00:41:53.880
<v Speaker 7>use a firestick in every TV. We have every TV

799
00:41:54.320 --> 00:42:00.760
<v Speaker 7>in the Thomas during Prime day they're like fifteen bucks man.

800
00:42:00.960 --> 00:42:04.280
<v Speaker 5>Okay, this is this brings up why I brought this up.

801
00:42:04.960 --> 00:42:08.199
<v Speaker 5>That smart hub is on my TV. And I have

802
00:42:09.280 --> 00:42:10.880
<v Speaker 5>Alexa is that what it's called?

803
00:42:10.920 --> 00:42:11.360
<v Speaker 2>Amazon?

804
00:42:12.199 --> 00:42:15.679
<v Speaker 5>It's a fire stick whatever? And I have Google Home.

805
00:42:15.800 --> 00:42:18.320
<v Speaker 5>I have all kinds of stuff around my house. And

806
00:42:18.440 --> 00:42:21.480
<v Speaker 5>Dimitri he comes to the house when I'm up and

807
00:42:21.559 --> 00:42:22.280
<v Speaker 5>running normally.

808
00:42:22.320 --> 00:42:23.159
<v Speaker 2>He's here a lot.

809
00:42:23.400 --> 00:42:26.599
<v Speaker 5>And Deputy D swears to God that every one of

810
00:42:26.639 --> 00:42:29.119
<v Speaker 5>these devices spy on you.

811
00:42:29.840 --> 00:42:34.119
<v Speaker 17>Oh hold on, Mark, you weren't there. A few months

812
00:42:34.159 --> 00:42:37.199
<v Speaker 17>ago when I helped Tom set up his new ginormous

813
00:42:37.199 --> 00:42:41.039
<v Speaker 17>TV that serves as the backdrop to his set. It's

814
00:42:41.039 --> 00:42:45.519
<v Speaker 17>a giant LG And when he first powered up, it

815
00:42:45.559 --> 00:42:48.960
<v Speaker 17>would not let him bypass a couple of parts in

816
00:42:49.000 --> 00:42:49.480
<v Speaker 17>the setup.

817
00:42:49.599 --> 00:42:52.119
<v Speaker 12>It wanted to know his birth date. Yeah. Why do

818
00:42:52.159 --> 00:42:54.800
<v Speaker 12>you think a TV needs to know your birth.

819
00:42:54.599 --> 00:42:59.000
<v Speaker 7>Date just to gather information to report back to Big Yeah?

820
00:42:58.639 --> 00:43:00.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean there's a lot. I don't have a

821
00:43:00.320 --> 00:43:03.440
<v Speaker 2>problem with you. Do you think, though? Do you can

822
00:43:03.440 --> 00:43:04.199
<v Speaker 2>put in? Truly?

823
00:43:05.320 --> 00:43:09.599
<v Speaker 5>Dimitri is convinced that for a normal person who doesn't

824
00:43:09.639 --> 00:43:12.760
<v Speaker 5>watch what they're doing and just goes through normal life,

825
00:43:13.000 --> 00:43:17.239
<v Speaker 5>he's convinced there are dozens of things spying on us.

826
00:43:17.679 --> 00:43:18.760
<v Speaker 2>My father right.

827
00:43:18.599 --> 00:43:21.039
<v Speaker 7>Now is spying on me. I mean, there's no doubt

828
00:43:21.039 --> 00:43:23.639
<v Speaker 7>about that. We agree to that in every act about

829
00:43:23.639 --> 00:43:27.519
<v Speaker 7>your car. Oh, my Mark is your tesla, dude, Mike tesla.

830
00:43:27.920 --> 00:43:32.280
<v Speaker 7>My tesla knows everything about us. It knows my driving habits,

831
00:43:32.320 --> 00:43:35.400
<v Speaker 7>it knows where we go when we charge, when we're

832
00:43:35.440 --> 00:43:38.480
<v Speaker 7>at home, where our work is, our favorite movie theater,

833
00:43:38.599 --> 00:43:39.880
<v Speaker 7>our favorite restaurants.

834
00:43:39.960 --> 00:43:42.639
<v Speaker 2>But it's crazy, it knows every there's a way to

835
00:43:42.679 --> 00:43:43.199
<v Speaker 2>stop it.

836
00:43:43.920 --> 00:43:47.360
<v Speaker 5>Dmitria is pretty cautious, but I don't think there's any

837
00:43:47.400 --> 00:43:50.599
<v Speaker 5>way to stop He still listens to CDs.

838
00:43:51.920 --> 00:43:54.440
<v Speaker 2>He's got an eight track player next to him.

839
00:43:56.360 --> 00:44:00.840
<v Speaker 6>But the next level thing about Airi'm smart on your TV.

840
00:44:01.920 --> 00:44:05.159
<v Speaker 7>Okay, I gotta tell she gets brought up. Ai, I

841
00:44:05.199 --> 00:44:08.039
<v Speaker 7>gotta say something real quick. I have this program now

842
00:44:08.079 --> 00:44:11.920
<v Speaker 7>at home called Runway Tom. It is absolutely incredible. So

843
00:44:12.000 --> 00:44:16.639
<v Speaker 7>I'm creating this ten to fifteen second video that is

844
00:44:16.719 --> 00:44:19.920
<v Speaker 7>going to go out through Instagram and YouTube basically all

845
00:44:19.960 --> 00:44:24.039
<v Speaker 7>over the country to different demographics. I choose saying we

846
00:44:24.079 --> 00:44:28.440
<v Speaker 7>give free help called the Troubleshooter Show, etc. So I said,

847
00:44:28.559 --> 00:44:32.239
<v Speaker 7>I want a video of a bad plumber working on

848
00:44:32.280 --> 00:44:34.159
<v Speaker 7>a toilet and all of a sudden.

849
00:44:33.920 --> 00:44:35.800
<v Speaker 2>There's a huge leak and it floods.

850
00:44:36.079 --> 00:44:38.920
<v Speaker 7>Then I wanted to cut over to a guy working

851
00:44:38.960 --> 00:44:41.960
<v Speaker 7>on a furnace and he accidentally puts a hole in

852
00:44:42.000 --> 00:44:44.920
<v Speaker 7>the wall and the whole house catches on fire. Then

853
00:44:44.960 --> 00:44:48.760
<v Speaker 7>I want you to flash to me saying this it

854
00:44:49.159 --> 00:44:53.440
<v Speaker 7>created that. I can't even explain to you the best

855
00:44:54.400 --> 00:44:59.920
<v Speaker 7>fifteen second commercial that looks so realistic. It's unbelievable. Base

856
00:45:00.039 --> 00:45:04.159
<v Speaker 7>step on my tight description. It is crazy, Mark, it

857
00:45:04.280 --> 00:45:07.199
<v Speaker 7>is the most I don't play why we have jobs

858
00:45:07.280 --> 00:45:07.679
<v Speaker 7>right now?

859
00:45:07.719 --> 00:45:11.559
<v Speaker 2>To be quite honest, I mean, Mark, let's just play that.

860
00:45:11.599 --> 00:45:14.079
<v Speaker 2>I would love to see that. Here's how I know

861
00:45:14.159 --> 00:45:15.000
<v Speaker 2>Mark got Ai.

862
00:45:15.239 --> 00:45:17.639
<v Speaker 5>Here's how I know, Susan Oh shut it, got Ai

863
00:45:17.880 --> 00:45:21.039
<v Speaker 5>got it When when his emails actually started making.

864
00:45:20.800 --> 00:45:22.679
<v Speaker 7>Shout it, I knew we were going to say, this

865
00:45:22.760 --> 00:45:24.760
<v Speaker 7>is are you saying that email?

866
00:45:24.840 --> 00:45:27.199
<v Speaker 2>I said the other day I read through it.

867
00:45:27.880 --> 00:45:31.079
<v Speaker 5>And there was more than a one syllable word.

868
00:45:31.119 --> 00:45:32.639
<v Speaker 2>There were capitalizations.

869
00:45:32.800 --> 00:45:36.920
<v Speaker 5>Go get your really his letters his letters improve one

870
00:45:36.960 --> 00:45:41.800
<v Speaker 5>thousand percent and take you real quick. Andrew, you have

871
00:45:41.840 --> 00:45:43.960
<v Speaker 5>a comment on paying contractors up front.

872
00:45:44.000 --> 00:45:47.519
<v Speaker 11>Go ahead, Andrew, Yeah, I was just going to say,

873
00:45:48.400 --> 00:45:51.920
<v Speaker 11>in my mind, I think it's it's a good practice

874
00:45:52.000 --> 00:45:56.480
<v Speaker 11>to UH to pay half up front on a project,

875
00:45:56.519 --> 00:46:00.599
<v Speaker 11>just because I think it's a give and take between sides.

876
00:46:00.639 --> 00:46:04.079
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you're showing that you you have money to

877
00:46:04.119 --> 00:46:08.280
<v Speaker 1>put towards this, and and I think the contractor saying that,

878
00:46:08.719 --> 00:46:11.519
<v Speaker 1>you know, we'll do the work. We'll start the work

879
00:46:11.559 --> 00:46:13.519
<v Speaker 1>if we've got the half, and then we'll finish it

880
00:46:13.800 --> 00:46:16.320
<v Speaker 1>and then at the end you get paid the full amount.

881
00:46:16.480 --> 00:46:18.840
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I don't but when when would you pay

882
00:46:18.880 --> 00:46:19.559
<v Speaker 5>the first half?

883
00:46:19.599 --> 00:46:19.840
<v Speaker 2>Though?

884
00:46:20.840 --> 00:46:22.679
<v Speaker 5>When would you put when would you put off the

885
00:46:22.719 --> 00:46:24.159
<v Speaker 5>first half right in the beginning?

886
00:46:25.599 --> 00:46:28.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we just did it for we had a new

887
00:46:28.119 --> 00:46:33.000
<v Speaker 1>garage door from the one Clear Choice and so we

888
00:46:33.079 --> 00:46:37.000
<v Speaker 1>paid half upfront to have the door made, and then

889
00:46:37.119 --> 00:46:38.920
<v Speaker 1>at the end when it was installed, then we paid.

890
00:46:38.920 --> 00:46:41.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, I agree one hundred percent with that, Andrew.

891
00:46:41.519 --> 00:46:44.199
<v Speaker 7>If it's a custom job like that, I even explained

892
00:46:44.239 --> 00:46:46.360
<v Speaker 7>I paid. I think it was twenty or twenty five

893
00:46:46.400 --> 00:46:49.719
<v Speaker 7>percent down from Gravina on our new sliding door. But

894
00:46:49.800 --> 00:46:53.519
<v Speaker 7>that's that's custom stuff. Would you pay if you hired

895
00:46:53.519 --> 00:46:56.440
<v Speaker 7>someone to come over and do landscaping at your house

896
00:46:56.760 --> 00:46:59.400
<v Speaker 7>and they were gonna, you know, trim up the bushes

897
00:46:59.400 --> 00:47:01.519
<v Speaker 7>and plan it tree or whatever they were going to do,

898
00:47:01.639 --> 00:47:04.639
<v Speaker 7>mow your lawn, would you pay them half upfront or

899
00:47:04.679 --> 00:47:06.920
<v Speaker 7>wait till it's done.

900
00:47:07.519 --> 00:47:08.880
<v Speaker 1>I think I would pay half a print.

901
00:47:08.920 --> 00:47:09.679
<v Speaker 2>Yet I wouldn't.

902
00:47:09.960 --> 00:47:12.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if they're reputable hey by by one.

903
00:47:12.559 --> 00:47:16.440
<v Speaker 5>Clear Choice garage doors by the way, obviously we advertise

904
00:47:16.480 --> 00:47:16.800
<v Speaker 5>for them.

905
00:47:16.840 --> 00:47:17.440
<v Speaker 2>I love them.

906
00:47:17.480 --> 00:47:20.280
<v Speaker 5>They're great people, twenty four to seven service and they

907
00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:21.000
<v Speaker 5>can do all of that.

908
00:47:21.079 --> 00:47:22.119
<v Speaker 2>I would trust them too.

909
00:47:22.440 --> 00:47:26.039
<v Speaker 5>See, the problem isn't that everyone's out to get your money.

910
00:47:26.079 --> 00:47:30.960
<v Speaker 5>The problem is just unforeseen circumstances can befall everyone, and

911
00:47:31.079 --> 00:47:32.920
<v Speaker 5>I just think it's safe for not to do that.

912
00:47:33.159 --> 00:47:35.480
<v Speaker 5>But if one Clear Choice Stores came to my home,

913
00:47:35.760 --> 00:47:39.159
<v Speaker 5>I would have no qualms about putting half down. In fact,

914
00:47:39.280 --> 00:47:42.280
<v Speaker 5>I would say that with my referral list, I would

915
00:47:42.320 --> 00:47:45.199
<v Speaker 5>have no qualms with any of those businesses because we

916
00:47:45.239 --> 00:47:48.559
<v Speaker 5>go to such great lengths to clear them. However, mark

917
00:47:48.800 --> 00:47:52.079
<v Speaker 5>we have had. I believe there were two in our history.

918
00:47:52.320 --> 00:47:55.280
<v Speaker 7>That went out of business after taking money not on

919
00:47:55.440 --> 00:47:59.719
<v Speaker 7>purpose solar market in magic floors or something like that,

920
00:48:00.400 --> 00:48:03.719
<v Speaker 7>what called garage magic.

921
00:48:03.880 --> 00:48:08.639
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, so two in our complete history had situations where

922
00:48:08.679 --> 00:48:11.440
<v Speaker 5>money had been taken and they didn't start the jobs.

923
00:48:11.559 --> 00:48:15.599
<v Speaker 5>But it wasn't engineered. It was truly, you know, just

924
00:48:15.719 --> 00:48:18.440
<v Speaker 5>unforeseen circumstances. But here's by the way, speaking of one

925
00:48:18.440 --> 00:48:20.960
<v Speaker 5>Clear let me throw this in real quick, just for

926
00:48:21.119 --> 00:48:24.199
<v Speaker 5>Andrews since we have them up Andrew. If you're dealing

927
00:48:24.239 --> 00:48:27.639
<v Speaker 5>with a bigger company too, Like if I'm ordering something

928
00:48:27.719 --> 00:48:30.679
<v Speaker 5>from Costco, I'm gonna pay up front and they're.

929
00:48:30.480 --> 00:48:31.360
<v Speaker 2>Gonna ship it to me.

930
00:48:31.639 --> 00:48:34.840
<v Speaker 7>I know Costco's been around forever, but just like you

931
00:48:34.920 --> 00:48:37.559
<v Speaker 7>said on the landscape or if they're reputable, yeah, if

932
00:48:37.599 --> 00:48:39.440
<v Speaker 7>they've been around twenty years, maybe so.

933
00:48:39.960 --> 00:48:43.480
<v Speaker 2>But you're doing business with some guy, some HVAC guy.

934
00:48:43.840 --> 00:48:46.239
<v Speaker 7>You never know he's a one or two man show

935
00:48:46.519 --> 00:48:49.440
<v Speaker 7>and he wants three thousand dollars air half down to

936
00:48:49.480 --> 00:48:52.199
<v Speaker 7>put a furnace in. I think you're insane. You could

937
00:48:52.199 --> 00:48:55.000
<v Speaker 7>give him the three thousand. That guy could leave, get

938
00:48:55.079 --> 00:48:57.559
<v Speaker 7>hit by a truck and you have no idea.

939
00:48:57.280 --> 00:48:58.159
<v Speaker 2>What's gonna happen?

940
00:48:59.199 --> 00:49:02.480
<v Speaker 5>Right, yes, exactly right, by the way, One Clear Choice.

941
00:49:02.639 --> 00:49:05.039
<v Speaker 5>I want to say this because One Clear Choice stor

942
00:49:05.159 --> 00:49:07.800
<v Speaker 5>is honest to god, I have never seen a company

943
00:49:07.880 --> 00:49:12.880
<v Speaker 5>so so wonderful. I mean, they have flat pricing upfront

944
00:49:13.000 --> 00:49:15.760
<v Speaker 5>everything you want done. There have been times I've called

945
00:49:15.760 --> 00:49:18.519
<v Speaker 5>them in the in the late evening because my garage

946
00:49:18.519 --> 00:49:21.239
<v Speaker 5>door wouldn't close and they're out there twenty four to seven.

947
00:49:21.440 --> 00:49:22.840
<v Speaker 2>So why we were talking about them?

948
00:49:22.840 --> 00:49:24.760
<v Speaker 5>I just wanted to let people know about him One

949

950

<v Speaker 2>Larry clu Us in here, what are you talking?

990
00:51:26.440 --> 00:51:26.679
<v Speaker 15>Well?

991
00:51:27.280 --> 00:51:29.760
<v Speaker 9>Well, first of all, I want to say you sound great. Tom.

992
00:51:29.800 --> 00:51:31.480
<v Speaker 9>We're so glad that you're doing well.

993
00:51:33.119 --> 00:51:33.559
<v Speaker 2>Thank you.

994
00:51:33.599 --> 00:51:36.480
<v Speaker 9>It's an actual law that many people haven't talked about,

995
00:51:37.440 --> 00:51:40.239
<v Speaker 9>and I believe it was passed as part of the

996
00:51:40.280 --> 00:51:42.679
<v Speaker 9>New Green Deal under the Biden administration. I'm not sure

997
00:51:42.679 --> 00:51:45.800
<v Speaker 9>about that, but it is an actual law. All cars

998
00:51:45.800 --> 00:51:51.280
<v Speaker 9>from twenty twenty six and on, we'll have a program

999
00:51:51.639 --> 00:51:55.559
<v Speaker 9>in them from the manufacturer that will allow the federal

1000
00:51:55.719 --> 00:52:00.880
<v Speaker 9>or state government to shut your car off remotely. Now

1001
00:52:00.920 --> 00:52:04.559
<v Speaker 9>it sounds why ridiculous, Yeah, it sounds ridiculous. I looked

1002
00:52:04.559 --> 00:52:08.079
<v Speaker 9>it up. It's an actual law. There was one Republican

1003
00:52:08.159 --> 00:52:09.559
<v Speaker 9>senator about eight months.

1004
00:52:09.639 --> 00:52:11.360
<v Speaker 2>Do you know do you know the name? Do you

1005
00:52:11.400 --> 00:52:14.000
<v Speaker 2>know the name of the law, Larry, do you know

1006
00:52:14.039 --> 00:52:14.960
<v Speaker 2>the name of the law.

1007
00:52:15.039 --> 00:52:16.639
<v Speaker 9>I don't know the name of the law. But if

1008
00:52:16.639 --> 00:52:21.920
<v Speaker 9>you just google, you know, twenty twenty six cars and

1009
00:52:22.000 --> 00:52:24.480
<v Speaker 9>beyond program to shut off, it'll come up.

1010
00:52:24.639 --> 00:52:28.280
<v Speaker 7>Well, it was part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and

1011
00:52:28.440 --> 00:52:31.719
<v Speaker 7>Jobs Act, But I don't know if any manufacturers have

1012
00:52:31.800 --> 00:52:34.639
<v Speaker 7>actually done it. I don't know of one car that

1013
00:52:34.760 --> 00:52:39.280
<v Speaker 7>the government has access to remotely shut off. Most manufacturers do,

1014
00:52:39.400 --> 00:52:42.360
<v Speaker 7>but I don't think the government has access to that yet.

1015
00:52:42.400 --> 00:52:45.000
<v Speaker 7>But that was definitely part of that Jobs Act.

1016
00:52:45.679 --> 00:52:47.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, wait a minute, Mark.

1017
00:52:47.280 --> 00:52:52.000
<v Speaker 5>Wait a minute, Mark, you said, but Mark, you say

1018
00:52:52.039 --> 00:52:52.719
<v Speaker 5>that right now?

1019
00:52:52.840 --> 00:52:54.119
<v Speaker 2>Manufacturers have that?

1020
00:52:54.760 --> 00:52:57.000
<v Speaker 7>Well, yeah, any car out there that has like on

1021
00:52:57.280 --> 00:53:00.960
<v Speaker 7>Star or any kind of connectivity, which is almost every

1022
00:53:01.000 --> 00:53:03.800
<v Speaker 7>car that I know of that is made at least

1023
00:53:03.840 --> 00:53:06.360
<v Speaker 7>in the last five or six years. I can't think

1024
00:53:06.400 --> 00:53:08.760
<v Speaker 7>of any car that doesn't have something like that. I

1025
00:53:08.760 --> 00:53:11.440
<v Speaker 7>mean in the United States and Mexico and other places

1026
00:53:11.440 --> 00:53:14.039
<v Speaker 7>they do. But yeah, so if your car's stolen, they

1027
00:53:14.079 --> 00:53:17.079
<v Speaker 7>can remotely shut it off. Most cars they can tell

1028
00:53:17.119 --> 00:53:18.719
<v Speaker 7>if it's stolen where it's located.

1029
00:53:20.480 --> 00:53:24.000
<v Speaker 5>Lamar, I mean, but I want to tell you, Larry, Larry,

1030
00:53:24.039 --> 00:53:29.840
<v Speaker 5>there is no According to my boyfriend Cat Gpt, they

1031
00:53:29.880 --> 00:53:32.920
<v Speaker 5>said there is no actual law. As part of the

1032
00:53:33.039 --> 00:53:36.239
<v Speaker 5>Investment in Jobs Act, as Mark said, they said that

1033
00:53:36.719 --> 00:53:43.000
<v Speaker 5>must be equipped with advanced drunk and impaired driving prevention technology.

1034
00:53:43.920 --> 00:53:45.199
<v Speaker 2>To reduce accidents.

1035
00:53:45.639 --> 00:53:50.280
<v Speaker 5>And it's intended to monitor the driver's performance and it

1036
00:53:50.360 --> 00:53:51.639
<v Speaker 5>will shut itself down.

1037
00:53:51.880 --> 00:53:53.960
<v Speaker 2>It's not remotely done.

1038
00:53:54.079 --> 00:53:58.960
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, and I don't even think that's in effect yet, right, well,

1039
00:53:59.079 --> 00:54:00.360
<v Speaker 7>like if.

1040
00:53:59.840 --> 00:54:01.480
<v Speaker 2>It I noted erratic driving?

1041
00:54:02.320 --> 00:54:05.719
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, come, I will look up the article that I

1042
00:54:05.800 --> 00:54:09.840
<v Speaker 9>read based on the Republican senator and I'll just email

1043
00:54:09.920 --> 00:54:10.360
<v Speaker 9>that to you.

1044
00:54:12.039 --> 00:54:15.119
<v Speaker 5>Okay, I want I want to see it because according

1045
00:54:15.119 --> 00:54:19.920
<v Speaker 5>to Jack Gpt, the technology what you're talking about exists,

1046
00:54:20.280 --> 00:54:23.960
<v Speaker 5>but it's for detection of erratic or dangerous driving.

1047
00:54:24.000 --> 00:54:26.480
<v Speaker 7>And I have never I have never seen that in

1048
00:54:26.559 --> 00:54:30.000
<v Speaker 7>effect on a Tesla or a Hondai or any vehicle

1049
00:54:30.039 --> 00:54:31.239
<v Speaker 7>I've owned ever.

1050
00:54:31.719 --> 00:54:35.920
<v Speaker 2>I've just never seen it. Like if I like, in other.

1051
00:54:35.840 --> 00:54:39.039
<v Speaker 7>Words, if I get in and just start swerving on purpose,

1052
00:54:39.719 --> 00:54:40.639
<v Speaker 7>the car doesn't care.

1053
00:54:40.719 --> 00:54:41.960
<v Speaker 2>It just simply doesn't care.

1054
00:54:42.199 --> 00:54:45.519
<v Speaker 7>So I mean, I don't know of any car that cares.

1055
00:54:45.880 --> 00:54:45.960
<v Speaker 11>Now.

1056
00:54:46.079 --> 00:54:49.119
<v Speaker 5>They say it's not an effect yet. It'll be twenty

1057
00:54:49.199 --> 00:54:50.039
<v Speaker 5>twenty six.

1058
00:54:49.880 --> 00:54:51.440
<v Speaker 7>And I don't mind it, but I'll tell you what

1059
00:54:51.480 --> 00:54:53.360
<v Speaker 7>I like better. And you know, this just the full

1060
00:54:53.400 --> 00:54:56.599
<v Speaker 7>self driving. I think everything should go to that. We're

1061
00:54:56.639 --> 00:54:59.360
<v Speaker 7>not gonna have accidents, We're not gonna have deaths. John

1062
00:54:59.400 --> 00:55:02.159
<v Speaker 7>Fuller's can I have to find a new job? Dan

1063
00:55:02.239 --> 00:55:04.480
<v Speaker 7>Kapla is going to have to find a new job because,

1064
00:55:04.800 --> 00:55:09.880
<v Speaker 7>honest to god, car accidents would be gone.

1065
00:55:10.960 --> 00:55:13.559
<v Speaker 5>It is amazing to me that technology. When you took

1066
00:55:13.599 --> 00:55:18.000
<v Speaker 5>me for the ride and stop set intersections.

1067
00:55:17.320 --> 00:55:20.840
<v Speaker 7>You kept asking questions like, wait, wait, there's a car coming.

1068
00:55:20.880 --> 00:55:21.960
<v Speaker 2>Do I got to hit the brake?

1069
00:55:22.199 --> 00:55:24.679
<v Speaker 7>I had to tell him in a ten to fifteen

1070
00:55:24.719 --> 00:55:29.039
<v Speaker 7>minute drive one hundred times, you don't touch anything. Let

1071
00:55:29.079 --> 00:55:31.360
<v Speaker 7>the car do it. It's I mean, terrifying. Though it

1072
00:55:31.599 --> 00:55:34.679
<v Speaker 7>was amazing, it's amazing to me.

1073
00:55:34.800 --> 00:55:36.079
<v Speaker 2>It's just absolute.

1074
00:55:36.280 --> 00:55:38.760
<v Speaker 5>And then I wonder how does it judge, Like one

1075
00:55:38.840 --> 00:55:42.239
<v Speaker 5>time it stopped for an oncoming car when we were

1076
00:55:42.239 --> 00:55:42.960
<v Speaker 5>going to turn right.

1077
00:55:43.199 --> 00:55:45.760
<v Speaker 2>The next time it did not stop.

1078
00:55:45.960 --> 00:55:48.679
<v Speaker 5>And I want to know how do they calculate how

1079
00:55:48.719 --> 00:55:49.880
<v Speaker 5>fast that other car is.

1080
00:55:49.840 --> 00:55:51.639
<v Speaker 7>Going it's got and if we can make it or not,

1081
00:55:51.679 --> 00:55:54.079
<v Speaker 7>it's got Tesla Vision on the new one. So that

1082
00:55:54.159 --> 00:55:57.639
<v Speaker 7>car you were in his computer four is what Tesla

1083
00:55:57.719 --> 00:56:01.679
<v Speaker 7>calls it. There's so many sensors and high definition cameras.

1084
00:56:02.039 --> 00:56:05.239
<v Speaker 7>It simply can shoot radar route, see how far that

1085
00:56:05.440 --> 00:56:08.400
<v Speaker 7>car is, and then it's got to camera to determine,

1086
00:56:08.519 --> 00:56:10.880
<v Speaker 7>you know, where it's turning, when it's turning, where the

1087
00:56:10.920 --> 00:56:13.920
<v Speaker 7>stop sign is. It just literally does it all on

1088
00:56:13.960 --> 00:56:15.280
<v Speaker 7>the fly. It's remarkable.

1089
00:56:16.880 --> 00:56:19.920
<v Speaker 5>Do you think there will ever be technology in a

1090
00:56:20.039 --> 00:56:23.679
<v Speaker 5>car that and don't be I'm not being silly. I

1091
00:56:23.719 --> 00:56:26.440
<v Speaker 5>mean that will have some kind of a some kind

1092
00:56:26.480 --> 00:56:30.760
<v Speaker 5>of a force field for example, for maybe a rock

1093
00:56:30.880 --> 00:56:35.280
<v Speaker 5>chip or or hail damage or something. I'm wondering if

1094
00:56:35.320 --> 00:56:38.239
<v Speaker 5>ever there could be any kind of a protective field.

1095
00:56:38.360 --> 00:56:40.639
<v Speaker 7>I think there will. It may sound crazy, No, I

1096
00:56:40.679 --> 00:56:42.679
<v Speaker 7>think there will be, but it's not. I don't see

1097
00:56:42.679 --> 00:56:45.199
<v Speaker 7>that in our lifetime. But of course, I mean, you know,

1098
00:56:45.280 --> 00:56:47.840
<v Speaker 7>if we went back to nineteen forty and said we'd

1099
00:56:47.840 --> 00:56:50.239
<v Speaker 7>have a little phone like we do now that can

1100
00:56:50.320 --> 00:56:53.079
<v Speaker 7>connect anywhere in the world, or we could fly up

1101
00:56:53.159 --> 00:56:55.119
<v Speaker 7>to the moon and just camp out for a little bit.

1102
00:56:55.199 --> 00:56:56.880
<v Speaker 2>No, I mean, ye, yeah, of course, we'll have a

1103
00:56:56.880 --> 00:56:57.480
<v Speaker 2>force field.

1104
00:56:58.840 --> 00:56:59.000
<v Speaker 10>Now.

1105
00:56:59.000 --> 00:57:01.360
<v Speaker 5>By the way, fix my home dot com book now.

1106
00:57:01.559 --> 00:57:03.559
<v Speaker 5>I want to tell people about that because somebody just

1107
00:57:03.599 --> 00:57:07.119
<v Speaker 5>texted me and they said that there are a number

1108
00:57:07.119 --> 00:57:10.079
<v Speaker 5>of specials going on right now. And Hannah, what they

1109
00:57:10.079 --> 00:57:13.800
<v Speaker 5>want to know is when I haven't gone there to

1110
00:57:13.800 --> 00:57:15.840
<v Speaker 5>fix my home dot com yet. I mean, I'll go,

1111
00:57:16.159 --> 00:57:19.559
<v Speaker 5>but do you pick the special? Are they all listed

1112
00:57:19.599 --> 00:57:22.559
<v Speaker 5>there because he wants the other one? Are you still

1113
00:57:22.599 --> 00:57:23.800
<v Speaker 5>doing the Extreme Clean?

1114
00:57:24.480 --> 00:57:26.559
<v Speaker 6>We're still doing the Extreme Clean. I'll tell you. Folks

1115
00:57:26.599 --> 00:57:28.639
<v Speaker 6>are calling in like crazy for that. They're prepping for

1116
00:57:28.679 --> 00:57:31.639
<v Speaker 6>the summer. Call in, say that what you're looking for.

1117
00:57:31.920 --> 00:57:34.079
<v Speaker 6>If he's a first time customer, he'll get that thirty

1118
00:57:34.159 --> 00:57:37.719
<v Speaker 6>nine dollars Extreme Clean and they will work with him

1119
00:57:38.039 --> 00:57:42.239
<v Speaker 6>on getting that on the calendar before the heat hits.

1120
00:57:43.000 --> 00:57:45.920
<v Speaker 5>Okay, so I'm here now, and what they ask for

1121
00:57:46.360 --> 00:57:49.239
<v Speaker 5>is your number and your name. I want to see

1122
00:57:49.239 --> 00:57:50.960
<v Speaker 5>what choices it gives you. I want to do this

1123
00:57:51.079 --> 00:57:55.880
<v Speaker 5>live and just see. So Tom at Troubleshooter my my email.

1124
00:57:56.639 --> 00:57:59.920
<v Speaker 5>So when I hit continue, I put my name my number.

1125
00:58:00.519 --> 00:58:04.480
<v Speaker 5>It says the address. So I put down my address

1126
00:58:04.960 --> 00:58:08.360
<v Speaker 5>and I am the owner and then okay, so you

1127
00:58:08.440 --> 00:58:11.639
<v Speaker 5>can book almost anything here, not just not just the

1128
00:58:11.719 --> 00:58:14.559
<v Speaker 5>Extreme clean, but basically anything.

1129
00:58:15.239 --> 00:58:17.320
<v Speaker 2>You give a problem description.

1130
00:58:17.559 --> 00:58:22.119
<v Speaker 5>And then they and then they they direct you to

1131
00:58:22.199 --> 00:58:25.480
<v Speaker 5>the special that's in effect. But here are the specials

1132
00:58:25.480 --> 00:58:29.440
<v Speaker 5>to sum them up. A thirty nine dollars deep extreme clean.

1133
00:58:29.519 --> 00:58:32.599
<v Speaker 5>I call it for an AC tune up before the

1134
00:58:32.599 --> 00:58:36.039
<v Speaker 5>heating season comes, and that's like a complete refurbishment of

1135
00:58:36.079 --> 00:58:38.639
<v Speaker 5>your system to the extent they can take it apart.

1136
00:58:38.960 --> 00:58:42.159
<v Speaker 5>The other one is the forty nine dollars some pump special,

1137
00:58:42.400 --> 00:58:45.119
<v Speaker 5>where they'll clean and service the some pump. And most

1138
00:58:45.119 --> 00:58:46.960
<v Speaker 5>people don't even know they have a some pump, let

1139
00:58:47.000 --> 00:58:49.400
<v Speaker 5>alone service it, and the only time they find out

1140
00:58:49.679 --> 00:58:51.760
<v Speaker 5>is when it fails and all of a sudden their basement.

1141
00:58:52.239 --> 00:58:54.480
<v Speaker 5>Their basement has an inch of water. So if you're

1142
00:58:54.480 --> 00:58:57.199
<v Speaker 5>not sure you have it, you should call and they

1143
00:58:57.239 --> 00:58:59.079
<v Speaker 5>can detect whether you have a sum pump or not.

1144
00:58:59.639 --> 00:59:02.119
<v Speaker 5>Obvious there wouldn't be a charge if you don't have one.

1145
00:59:02.239 --> 00:59:07.760
<v Speaker 5>And then then the other special is the generator.

1146
00:59:08.480 --> 00:59:09.159
<v Speaker 2>I love this.

1147
00:59:09.519 --> 00:59:14.239
<v Speaker 5>So the electrical department division, they're busy doing auto start

1148
00:59:14.280 --> 00:59:18.440
<v Speaker 5>generator backup systems and you're giving ten percent off, only

1149
00:59:18.519 --> 00:59:21.599
<v Speaker 5>ten slots available for that. So if you're looking for

1150
00:59:21.960 --> 00:59:24.519
<v Speaker 5>a generator, you have a company.

1151
00:59:24.119 --> 00:59:26.760
<v Speaker 2>You know and trust that can come and do that.

1152
00:59:27.079 --> 00:59:30.320
<v Speaker 5>Now, the generator that somebody asked about the price of

1153
00:59:30.360 --> 00:59:33.000
<v Speaker 5>a generator, it depends on the size of house. I

1154
00:59:33.000 --> 00:59:36.079
<v Speaker 5>would imagine that's exactly if you have so tom the

1155
00:59:36.079 --> 00:59:37.440
<v Speaker 5>way this is how much they have.

1156
00:59:38.679 --> 00:59:40.360
<v Speaker 6>The way this one will work is they call in.

1157
00:59:40.840 --> 00:59:42.440
<v Speaker 6>We're going to send out our technicians, and we have

1158
00:59:42.480 --> 00:59:46.480
<v Speaker 6>technicians that specialize in this and only this. They're going

1159
00:59:46.519 --> 00:59:48.800
<v Speaker 6>to do that walk through, they're going to give their recommendations.

1160
00:59:49.039 --> 00:59:51.719
<v Speaker 6>They're going to talk about the design, the layout, and

1161
00:59:51.760 --> 00:59:54.079
<v Speaker 6>then you'll look at that. Then you're going to get

1162
00:59:54.079 --> 00:59:58.960
<v Speaker 6>that price right, nothing hidden obvious, it's guaranteed, it's not

1163
00:59:59.039 --> 01:00:01.199
<v Speaker 6>going to change. And you get if they are part

1164
01:00:01.199 --> 01:00:03.960
<v Speaker 6>of this ten you get that ten percent off. But

1165
01:00:04.039 --> 01:00:07.199
<v Speaker 6>the first step is getting that technician out there to

1166
01:00:07.280 --> 01:00:08.039
<v Speaker 6>look at that, right.

1167
01:00:08.079 --> 01:00:10.480
<v Speaker 5>And there's no charge to get there's no charge to

1168
01:00:10.519 --> 01:00:13.679
<v Speaker 5>get the evaluation. That's the main thing. No charge for

1169
01:00:13.760 --> 01:00:17.360
<v Speaker 5>that evaluation. Correct, Yeah, for the first ten. So so

1170
01:00:17.599 --> 01:00:20.480
<v Speaker 5>you can just go to fix myhome dot com book

1171
01:00:20.519 --> 01:00:24.280
<v Speaker 5>now or seven to zero five two, six thirty nine,

1172
01:00:24.360 --> 01:00:26.920
<v Speaker 5>thirty nine, seventeen zero five two six thirty nine thirty

1173
01:00:27.000 --> 01:00:27.880
<v Speaker 5>nine Jr.

1174
01:00:28.039 --> 01:00:29.960
<v Speaker 2>What is your comment on express lanes?

1175
01:00:32.400 --> 01:00:34.679
<v Speaker 15>Hey, so you are asking for some words of wisdom.

1176
01:00:34.719 --> 01:00:37.639
<v Speaker 15>I'm gonna save you guys some money. The express lane

1177
01:00:37.639 --> 01:00:42.519
<v Speaker 15>on I seventy pay attention to lineage and signage. You

1178
01:00:42.800 --> 01:00:45.079
<v Speaker 15>they got a call last week by the guy that

1179
01:00:45.119 --> 01:00:47.960
<v Speaker 15>got a seventy five dollars fine for exiting the express

1180
01:00:48.039 --> 01:00:53.239
<v Speaker 15>lane out of out of the exit lane. Right, so, right,

1181
01:00:53.400 --> 01:00:55.440
<v Speaker 15>you've ever used the express lane. There are two sets

1182
01:00:55.440 --> 01:00:58.880
<v Speaker 15>of lines. There's a solid line or double solid lines.

1183
01:00:58.920 --> 01:01:00.800
<v Speaker 15>There's a solid line with a broken line.

1184
01:01:00.960 --> 01:01:02.119
<v Speaker 2>Oh, we know all too well.

1185
01:01:02.199 --> 01:01:02.840
<v Speaker 1>My friend.

1186
01:01:04.960 --> 01:01:07.519
<v Speaker 7>I got a picture of Tom crossing that double line

1187
01:01:07.519 --> 01:01:10.199
<v Speaker 7>that he he actually said he didn't do, but then

1188
01:01:10.280 --> 01:01:13.440
<v Speaker 7>I saw the photograph.

1189
01:01:13.480 --> 01:01:15.599
<v Speaker 5>Also, Mark, you have the because we have all our

1190
01:01:15.639 --> 01:01:18.960
<v Speaker 5>corporate all our corporate mail going to one spot, and

1191
01:01:19.559 --> 01:01:22.079
<v Speaker 5>my vehicle is registered in my corporate name.

1192
01:01:22.199 --> 01:01:25.039
<v Speaker 2>But so, Mark, was it a citation? How long ago

1193
01:01:25.159 --> 01:01:27.880
<v Speaker 2>was it? No, yours was when it was the freebie.

1194
01:01:28.159 --> 01:01:29.039
<v Speaker 2>This is a warning.

1195
01:01:29.440 --> 01:01:32.880
<v Speaker 7>But JR. Here's something interesting, man. Well, you listen to

1196
01:01:32.920 --> 01:01:35.360
<v Speaker 7>the show all the time. We had that attorney on

1197
01:01:35.480 --> 01:01:38.480
<v Speaker 7>that fought that if you paid the toll. In other words,

1198
01:01:38.639 --> 01:01:41.840
<v Speaker 7>if they dinger license plate or hit your transponder and you.

1199
01:01:41.880 --> 01:01:42.599
<v Speaker 2>Paid the toll.

1200
01:01:42.880 --> 01:01:44.639
<v Speaker 7>He took it all the way up to the top

1201
01:01:44.679 --> 01:01:46.960
<v Speaker 7>in Douglas County in front of a judge, and he

1202
01:01:47.079 --> 01:01:50.400
<v Speaker 7>ended up winning because that fine they give you for

1203
01:01:50.480 --> 01:01:54.199
<v Speaker 7>seventy five bucks is toll of aasion, and technically, if

1204
01:01:54.239 --> 01:01:57.400
<v Speaker 7>you paid the toll, it's not toll evasion. They've got

1205
01:01:57.440 --> 01:02:00.719
<v Speaker 7>to create a new CRC that talks about crossing the

1206
01:02:00.760 --> 01:02:03.840
<v Speaker 7>double line, which they have not done yet because they just.

1207
01:02:03.800 --> 01:02:07.360
<v Speaker 2>Want to rip us off, honestly. Okay, so yeah, but

1208
01:02:07.400 --> 01:02:08.559
<v Speaker 2>this guy took it all the way.

1209
01:02:09.559 --> 01:02:12.559
<v Speaker 15>Yeah, when you're heading eastbound on I seventy, you come

1210
01:02:12.639 --> 01:02:16.639
<v Speaker 15>up on Peoria, there's a sign overhead, a big eight

1211
01:02:16.639 --> 01:02:19.679
<v Speaker 15>foot by ten foot sign that says exit for Chambers

1212
01:02:19.719 --> 01:02:23.519
<v Speaker 15>and Penya Boulevard. That's where the double that's where the

1213
01:02:23.559 --> 01:02:26.800
<v Speaker 15>broken line and the solid line starts. And he could

1214
01:02:26.840 --> 01:02:29.679
<v Speaker 15>have got out there to be able to exit at

1215
01:02:29.760 --> 01:02:33.920
<v Speaker 15>Chambers or Pennon Boulevard. If you go past, it's at

1216
01:02:33.960 --> 01:02:37.360
<v Speaker 15>at Havana. If you go past Peoria, there's another sign

1217
01:02:37.360 --> 01:02:40.159
<v Speaker 15>that says no exit available for Penya. He said, there's

1218
01:02:40.159 --> 01:02:43.199
<v Speaker 15>no exit, but there was a mile of broken line

1219
01:02:43.239 --> 01:02:44.199
<v Speaker 15>with a solid line.

1220
01:02:44.239 --> 01:02:52.239
<v Speaker 2>All right, gotcha, JR JR. Real quick. I got to

<v Speaker 5>what is that about.

1245
01:04:10.440 --> 01:04:13.960
<v Speaker 15>I've been working for a company on the road local

1246
01:04:14.679 --> 01:04:17.719
<v Speaker 15>for thirty five years. I've been listening to you on

1247
01:04:17.840 --> 01:04:19.079
<v Speaker 15>the road for thirty five years.

1248
01:04:19.159 --> 01:04:22.400
<v Speaker 2>Wow, Now what do you do on the road? I mean,

1249
01:04:22.400 --> 01:04:23.800
<v Speaker 2>what is the job description?

1250
01:04:24.880 --> 01:04:27.519
<v Speaker 15>I work for a trash company. I'm a commercial driver,

1251
01:04:28.639 --> 01:04:31.679
<v Speaker 15>so I haul the big commenters that are behind behind

1252
01:04:31.719 --> 01:04:34.880
<v Speaker 15>the stores and medical ways and best bustiness and all

1253
01:04:34.920 --> 01:04:35.599
<v Speaker 15>that good stuff.

1254
01:04:37.119 --> 01:04:40.960
<v Speaker 2>You know, your your your business is picking up I hear?

1255
01:04:41.239 --> 01:04:41.360
<v Speaker 8>Uh?

1256
01:04:42.039 --> 01:04:48.239
<v Speaker 5>Anyway, we have Deputy d is in the trash business. Yes,

1257
01:04:48.480 --> 01:04:52.679
<v Speaker 5>so you guys can get together and talk trash.

1258
01:04:53.079 --> 01:04:56.639
<v Speaker 2>D is in the recycling business, right, d I.

1259
01:04:56.639 --> 01:04:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Haul a lot of recycling.

1260
01:04:58.079 --> 01:05:01.119
<v Speaker 17>Oh it could be the JR halls. Some of the

1261
01:05:01.199 --> 01:05:02.840
<v Speaker 17>loads on my company's behalf.

1262
01:05:02.960 --> 01:05:05.440
<v Speaker 2>Hey, JR. Be honest, don't be asked.

1263
01:05:05.440 --> 01:05:08.840
<v Speaker 7>Do most of those recycling halls you do go directly

1264
01:05:08.920 --> 01:05:09.719
<v Speaker 7>to the dump.

1265
01:05:11.639 --> 01:05:15.840
<v Speaker 15>So, in all honesty, if if the load shows up

1266
01:05:15.840 --> 01:05:19.159
<v Speaker 15>at the recycle center with trash in it, when it's

1267
01:05:19.199 --> 01:05:22.159
<v Speaker 15>specifically supposed to be a recycle load, it will be

1268
01:05:22.199 --> 01:05:22.920
<v Speaker 15>sent to trash.

1269
01:05:23.039 --> 01:05:25.400
<v Speaker 7>So how many out of that, how many out of

1270
01:05:25.440 --> 01:05:27.599
<v Speaker 7>ten end up going down the road?

1271
01:05:28.679 --> 01:05:29.760
<v Speaker 9>The ones that I deal.

1272
01:05:29.599 --> 01:05:32.559
<v Speaker 15>With are clean, they're clean, But I would say I

1273
01:05:32.559 --> 01:05:35.079
<v Speaker 15>would say for the most part, I would say probably

1274
01:05:35.119 --> 01:05:35.800
<v Speaker 15>two out of ten.

1275
01:05:36.199 --> 01:05:38.840
<v Speaker 7>Oh, that's a lot better than I thought, because it

1276
01:05:38.920 --> 01:05:43.039
<v Speaker 7>costs the customer the hall to the recycle center, and.

1277
01:05:43.639 --> 01:05:46.039
<v Speaker 15>The hall to the landfill, and the landfill charges for

1278
01:05:46.079 --> 01:05:49.719
<v Speaker 15>the disposal where the recycles down a minimal.

1279
01:05:51.119 --> 01:05:56.239
<v Speaker 5>You know, I asked this a deputy D. Hey, Deputy D.

1280
01:05:56.920 --> 01:05:59.960
<v Speaker 5>It almost feels like you have to have an instruction

1281
01:06:00.199 --> 01:06:04.639
<v Speaker 5>manual for what goes into recycle, Like, for example, if

1282
01:06:04.679 --> 01:06:09.159
<v Speaker 5>something is food stained or food residue, can you put

1283
01:06:09.159 --> 01:06:11.679
<v Speaker 5>it in recycling or do you have to rinse it

1284
01:06:11.719 --> 01:06:13.039
<v Speaker 5>off or rinse it out?

1285
01:06:13.159 --> 01:06:15.000
<v Speaker 17>No, you don't need to rinse it out. But let's

1286
01:06:15.000 --> 01:06:17.840
<v Speaker 17>say you're just you're you're throwing away like a mayonnaise jar.

1287
01:06:18.639 --> 01:06:20.280
<v Speaker 17>You don't need to rinse it out even though there's

1288
01:06:20.280 --> 01:06:24.079
<v Speaker 17>mayonnaise stuck in it. Okay, as long as it's like

1289
01:06:24.159 --> 01:06:27.599
<v Speaker 17>the stuck mayonnaise.

1290
01:06:27.800 --> 01:06:30.039
<v Speaker 2>As long as there's residual you're saying you don't.

1291
01:06:30.159 --> 01:06:32.599
<v Speaker 5>You don't throw out a whole bottle residual is okay,

1292
01:06:32.639 --> 01:06:34.800
<v Speaker 5>But if there's like a quarter of the jar left

1293
01:06:34.840 --> 01:06:36.679
<v Speaker 5>in there, then just throw the whole thing in, Okay.

1294
01:06:37.079 --> 01:06:41.400
<v Speaker 5>So what about this is another thing constantly I'm having

1295
01:06:41.400 --> 01:06:46.280
<v Speaker 5>a discussion about with my wife. Sheet plastic like saran

1296
01:06:46.400 --> 01:06:50.480
<v Speaker 5>wrap or plastic that comes on your Amazon package or

1297
01:06:50.960 --> 01:06:52.280
<v Speaker 5>what about plastic?

1298
01:06:52.800 --> 01:06:54.239
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, the sheet plastics.

1299
01:06:54.239 --> 01:06:57.159
<v Speaker 17>So in our industry it's called film, and film is

1300
01:06:57.159 --> 01:06:59.199
<v Speaker 17>going to be total garbage unless it comes out. So

1301
01:06:59.320 --> 01:07:03.920
<v Speaker 17>residential films are garbage. Commercial films like let's say you

1302
01:07:03.960 --> 01:07:07.400
<v Speaker 17>own a distribution center and these palettes of goods are

1303
01:07:07.440 --> 01:07:13.000
<v Speaker 17>wrapped in streatch trap. That's this, and that's actually very valuable.

1304
01:07:13.039 --> 01:07:17.360
<v Speaker 17>We sell that material to trecks, and treks makes plastic, lumber,

1305
01:07:17.440 --> 01:07:21.679
<v Speaker 17>plastic decking out of it. But residential sheet plastics throw that.

1306
01:07:21.599 --> 01:07:22.039
<v Speaker 12>In the garden.

1307
01:07:22.199 --> 01:07:25.000
<v Speaker 7>Is that because that's like the last part of what's

1308
01:07:25.000 --> 01:07:26.239
<v Speaker 7>already been recycled.

1309
01:07:26.400 --> 01:07:29.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean, why is one okay and the other's not? Oh?

1310
01:07:29.519 --> 01:07:33.199
<v Speaker 17>Because stread trap is made of one predictable type of plastic,

1311
01:07:33.320 --> 01:07:36.559
<v Speaker 17>so treks knows what they're getting how to process it.

1312
01:07:36.760 --> 01:07:39.440
<v Speaker 17>But the stuff you get at home. It could be dozens,

1313
01:07:39.440 --> 01:07:42.199
<v Speaker 17>if not hundreds of different plastics into film.

1314
01:07:42.880 --> 01:07:47.719
<v Speaker 15>What about styrofoam, so separate all that.

1315
01:07:47.880 --> 01:07:51.360
<v Speaker 17>Yeah, so styrofoam is recyclable, but unfortunately here in Colorado

1316
01:07:51.400 --> 01:07:54.440
<v Speaker 17>will only have one company that recycles it. It's called

1317
01:07:54.480 --> 01:07:59.000
<v Speaker 17>Sinoco Packaging in Colorado Springs. They're a manufacturer of styrofoam.

1318
01:07:59.079 --> 01:08:00.920
<v Speaker 17>So they have a public drum up off over there.

1319
01:08:01.079 --> 01:08:03.639
<v Speaker 17>You can drive your styrofoam to them and they'll accept it.

1320
01:08:03.840 --> 01:08:06.199
<v Speaker 17>But there are no commercial recyclers that I'm aware of

1321
01:08:06.519 --> 01:08:09.519
<v Speaker 17>who accept styrofoam that hasn't been densified.

1322
01:08:10.360 --> 01:08:14.119
<v Speaker 2>And it's time we got to take a break. Thank

1323
01:08:14.159 --> 01:08:14.679
<v Speaker 2>you Jr.

1324
01:08:14.760 --> 01:08:19.039

1325
01:08:19.159 --> 01:08:23.119
<v Speaker 5>so confused when it comes to recycling, I really am,

1326
01:08:23.960 --> 01:08:25.439
<v Speaker 5>But at least it's better than nothing.

1327
01:08:25.479 --> 01:08:28.960
<v Speaker 2>I think Compass insurance right now, free insurance.

01:09:30.760 --> 01:09:33.520
<v Speaker 5>When it comes to uh, I want to sum this up.

1347
01:09:33.840 --> 01:09:37.840
<v Speaker 5>To pay money upfront, I would say, if at all possible,

1348
01:09:38.479 --> 01:09:40.520
<v Speaker 5>do not pay money upfront.

1349
01:09:40.960 --> 01:09:43.880
<v Speaker 2>Just don't. If you must pay money upfront.

1350
01:09:44.000 --> 01:09:46.760
<v Speaker 5>Somebody asks about ESCRO accounts, and I want to I

1351
01:09:46.800 --> 01:09:50.760
<v Speaker 5>want to talk about that. Most banks won't know what

1352
01:09:50.800 --> 01:09:52.760
<v Speaker 5>you're talking about. If you say, I want an ESRO

1353
01:09:52.800 --> 01:09:56.800
<v Speaker 5>account for this building project. Some banks do have what's

1354
01:09:56.880 --> 01:10:01.439
<v Speaker 5>called a construction department. That's where where they do construction loans.

1355
01:10:01.760 --> 01:10:03.920
<v Speaker 5>If you go to one of those things you asked

1356
01:10:03.920 --> 01:10:07.479
<v Speaker 5>her you do construction loans, you can then deposit the

1357
01:10:07.520 --> 01:10:10.239
<v Speaker 5>money and have them dole it out as a service.

1358
01:10:10.640 --> 01:10:13.119
<v Speaker 5>Another thing you can do is go to a title company.

1359
01:10:13.600 --> 01:10:17.640
<v Speaker 5>Title companies will gladly set up an ESCRO payment arrangement

1360
01:10:17.720 --> 01:10:20.760
<v Speaker 5>with you for a small fee, so if you ever

1361
01:10:20.800 --> 01:10:22.920
<v Speaker 5>want to pay as you go, you can do it

1362
01:10:22.960 --> 01:10:25.039
<v Speaker 5>that way. Of course, the best thing to do is

1363
01:10:25.079 --> 01:10:28.359
<v Speaker 5>to go to trusted sources like referral lists dot com.

<v Speaker 7>Afternoon, Suzanne, my beautiful wife, to my left.

1406
01:12:57.600 --> 01:13:00.640
<v Speaker 2>Howdy howdy, Deputy Doc. Deputy Dmitri.

1407
01:13:01.159 --> 01:13:03.439
<v Speaker 7>We have Dragon on the other side of the glass

1408
01:13:03.479 --> 01:13:07.199
<v Speaker 7>and Kelly answering your phones. We do have three lines

1409
01:13:07.239 --> 01:13:09.720
<v Speaker 7>open three oh three seven, one, three eight two five five.

1410
01:13:09.880 --> 01:13:14.880
<v Speaker 7>I want to tell everybody about a very very important

1411
01:13:14.960 --> 01:13:18.760
<v Speaker 7>date coming up. Everybody should have received and probably the

1412
01:13:18.840 --> 01:13:22.880
<v Speaker 7>past week or so, the valuation from the county on

1413
01:13:22.920 --> 01:13:26.920
<v Speaker 7>your house. You only have a very small window to

1414
01:13:27.000 --> 01:13:30.000
<v Speaker 7>fight it. I try to do this every single year,

1415
01:13:30.119 --> 01:13:33.640
<v Speaker 7>so you know, and if you look at that valuation, most.

1416
01:13:33.399 --> 01:13:35.199
<v Speaker 2>Of them are insane. Mine was insane.

1417
01:13:35.800 --> 01:13:39.960
<v Speaker 7>Our home apparently went up three hundred thousand dollars in

1418
01:13:40.039 --> 01:13:42.359
<v Speaker 7>two years, and I simply know I can't sell it

1419
01:13:42.399 --> 01:13:45.359
<v Speaker 7>for it. And that's what Douglas County's trying to tax

1420
01:13:45.479 --> 01:13:48.239
<v Speaker 7>me on. So Frank Duran, the real estate man, I

1421
01:13:48.319 --> 01:13:51.680
<v Speaker 7>have him on and I'm gonna explain why in a second.

1422
01:13:51.680 --> 01:13:54.640
<v Speaker 7>But Frank, what are the dates? I know you did

1423
01:13:54.680 --> 01:13:58.479
<v Speaker 7>some research for me last night. When when can you

1424
01:13:58.600 --> 01:14:01.520
<v Speaker 7>actually go in and dispute the valuation?

1425
01:14:02.680 --> 01:14:06.239
<v Speaker 20>So my understanding, Mark is it's by June eighth. Although

1426
01:14:06.399 --> 01:14:08.960
<v Speaker 20>what I'm telling people is, look, if we're gonna help you,

1427
01:14:09.039 --> 01:14:11.920
<v Speaker 20>let us know pleice sooner than later, and I will

1428
01:14:11.960 --> 01:14:13.560
<v Speaker 20>do my best to get that report out to you

1429
01:14:13.600 --> 01:14:15.079
<v Speaker 20>here before the end of May. That way, you have

1430
01:14:15.119 --> 01:14:17.119
<v Speaker 20>a little bit of time and you're not going under

1431
01:14:17.159 --> 01:14:17.479
<v Speaker 20>the gun.

1432
01:14:17.680 --> 01:14:19.720
<v Speaker 2>And that's pretty much all of Colorado.

1433
01:14:19.800 --> 01:14:23.279
<v Speaker 7>It's not just Douglas County, correct, Frank, everybody's getting them.

1434
01:14:23.880 --> 01:14:24.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1435
01:14:24.760 --> 01:14:27.399
<v Speaker 20>And what we cover mark for us is Denver Metro

1436
01:14:27.520 --> 01:14:29.760
<v Speaker 20>surrounding areas. Now if it's out of our area, we're

1437
01:14:29.800 --> 01:14:32.079
<v Speaker 20>happy to get your referral for out of the area too,

1438
01:14:32.119 --> 01:14:32.760
<v Speaker 20>if you need some help.

1439
01:14:32.880 --> 01:14:36.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. So here's the deal. I saw ours about. I

1440
01:14:36.439 --> 01:14:36.760
<v Speaker 2>don't know.

1441
01:14:36.840 --> 01:14:40.800
<v Speaker 7>Susanna came in maybe a week ago and I was like, what,

1442
01:14:41.600 --> 01:14:43.640
<v Speaker 7>So I hop on Zillo and I know what the

1443
01:14:43.680 --> 01:14:46.960
<v Speaker 7>home next door they we just got new neighbors probably

1444
01:14:46.960 --> 01:14:47.760
<v Speaker 7>about a month ago.

1445
01:14:47.880 --> 01:14:49.239
<v Speaker 2>So I mean, I kind of have an.

1446
01:14:49.119 --> 01:14:52.039
<v Speaker 7>Idea of what the value of our house is, and

1447
01:14:52.159 --> 01:14:54.000
<v Speaker 7>all of a sudden, this thing goes up three hundred

1448
01:14:54.039 --> 01:14:54.800
<v Speaker 7>thousand dollars.

1449
01:14:54.800 --> 01:14:57.039
<v Speaker 2>Frank, and I went through this two.

1450
01:14:57.000 --> 01:14:59.000
<v Speaker 7>Years ago, and you helped me two years ago. So

1451
01:14:59.079 --> 01:15:00.760
<v Speaker 7>I called you up and I said, and Frank, I

1452
01:15:00.800 --> 01:15:03.399
<v Speaker 7>need another valuation. These guys are trying to hit me

1453
01:15:04.439 --> 01:15:07.760
<v Speaker 7>with a three hundred thousand dollars higher value. And if

1454
01:15:07.800 --> 01:15:10.800
<v Speaker 7>everybody out there, I don't care if you're in Denver, Douglas, Adams,

1455
01:15:10.800 --> 01:15:12.039
<v Speaker 7>you name it a rapo.

1456
01:15:12.880 --> 01:15:16.760
<v Speaker 2>Look at that card. I'm telling you right now, I don't.

1457
01:15:16.600 --> 01:15:19.920
<v Speaker 7>Even believe what these what these counties are doing. They're

1458
01:15:19.920 --> 01:15:23.520
<v Speaker 7>inflating it so we pay more taxes. And honestly, in Colorado,

1459
01:15:23.560 --> 01:15:27.000
<v Speaker 7>I think we pay almost the highest property taxes.

1460
01:15:26.640 --> 01:15:29.520
<v Speaker 2>In the country at this point. I mean, it's crazy.

1461
01:15:29.600 --> 01:15:35.399
<v Speaker 7>The levy is insane, the valuation is insane, the whole

1462
01:15:35.439 --> 01:15:38.319
<v Speaker 7>thing is insane. So I got together last night and

1463
01:15:38.359 --> 01:15:41.640
<v Speaker 7>called Frank up, and Frank's gonna do something for you

1464
01:15:41.439 --> 01:15:45.560
<v Speaker 7>if this is crazy, because typically Frank does the opposite.

1465
01:15:46.079 --> 01:15:49.960
<v Speaker 7>Typically Frank gets you the most amount of money for

1466
01:15:50.159 --> 01:15:52.319
<v Speaker 7>your house in fact, he does it better than any

1467
01:15:52.359 --> 01:15:55.319
<v Speaker 7>realature I know. But for the purpose of what we're

1468
01:15:55.359 --> 01:15:58.600
<v Speaker 7>talking about here, he's got a little secret sauce he's

1469
01:15:58.640 --> 01:16:00.840
<v Speaker 7>going to put into the mix, and he's going to

1470
01:16:00.920 --> 01:16:04.720
<v Speaker 7>do a free valuation on your house. If you think

1471
01:16:04.760 --> 01:16:08.960
<v Speaker 7>your property tax taxes are assessed to high, and I'm

1472
01:16:08.960 --> 01:16:12.520
<v Speaker 7>telling you it's insane, but you have to go to

1473
01:16:12.640 --> 01:16:15.960
<v Speaker 7>your county and tell them you're fighting it right now.

1474
01:16:16.119 --> 01:16:18.640
<v Speaker 7>You got to do that by June eighth, and then

1475
01:16:18.680 --> 01:16:22.600
<v Speaker 7>what you'll do in Douglas County you can upload evidence

1476
01:16:22.640 --> 01:16:25.760
<v Speaker 7>at the end. What I did already is I uploaded

1477
01:16:25.760 --> 01:16:29.600
<v Speaker 7>what Zillo says, what realatrure dot com says, and what

1478
01:16:29.680 --> 01:16:34.039
<v Speaker 7>Frank sent me, which is comps of stuff around my neighborhood.

1479
01:16:34.359 --> 01:16:37.119
<v Speaker 7>And Frank, I don't want to get into numbers, but

1480
01:16:37.760 --> 01:16:40.600
<v Speaker 7>we were at least one hundred or two hundred thousand

1481
01:16:40.680 --> 01:16:44.560
<v Speaker 7>dollars less on your valuation than they want to assess me.

1482
01:16:44.680 --> 01:16:45.359
<v Speaker 7>Is that correct?

1483
01:16:45.960 --> 01:16:48.199
<v Speaker 20>That sounds right, Mark, And I'll tell you two friend

1484
01:16:48.239 --> 01:16:49.880
<v Speaker 20>to put it in perspective, you know, because a lot

1485
01:16:49.920 --> 01:16:52.000
<v Speaker 20>of people sometimes they'll say, hey, can you do an appraisal?

1486
01:16:52.399 --> 01:16:54.600
<v Speaker 20>This is definitely not an appraisal. This is just our

1487
01:16:54.680 --> 01:16:56.960
<v Speaker 20>market analysis we do. And I'll tell you too.

1488
01:16:56.880 --> 01:17:00.159
<v Speaker 7>Mark, But Frank, I promise I'll let you put. The

1489
01:17:00.319 --> 01:17:03.279
<v Speaker 7>county doesn't do an appraisal either. It's not like we're

1490
01:17:03.279 --> 01:17:07.119
<v Speaker 7>fighting an appraisal from the county. They just arbitrarily and

1491
01:17:07.560 --> 01:17:10.720
<v Speaker 7>in my well, I won't even say understanding. In my opinion,

1492
01:17:10.960 --> 01:17:13.600
<v Speaker 7>they simply go, oh, we're going to charge. We're gonna

1493
01:17:13.600 --> 01:17:16.000
<v Speaker 7>tell everybody it's worth more so we get more money.

1494
01:17:16.079 --> 01:17:16.720
<v Speaker 2>But go ahead.

1495
01:17:17.079 --> 01:17:19.199
<v Speaker 20>Oh no, I hear your friend. Absolutely they're not doing

1496
01:17:19.199 --> 01:17:19.920
<v Speaker 20>an appraisal either.

1497
01:17:20.079 --> 01:17:21.159
<v Speaker 1>What I was just gonna.

1498
01:17:20.880 --> 01:17:23.000
<v Speaker 20>Mention Mark is will always shoot straight with you, because

1499
01:17:23.000 --> 01:17:24.880
<v Speaker 20>I had a gentleman he came to me and he

1500
01:17:25.039 --> 01:17:27.199
<v Speaker 20>thought that he was being overtaxed. But when I looked

1501
01:17:27.239 --> 01:17:31.199
<v Speaker 20>at the comps, I said, look this comparable wise, this

1502
01:17:31.239 --> 01:17:33.560
<v Speaker 20>looks about right. So sometimes it's right on the nose.

1503
01:17:33.680 --> 01:17:35.920
<v Speaker 20>Sometimes they're high, sometimes they're low, Mark, But one way

1504
01:17:36.000 --> 01:17:38.039
<v Speaker 20>or the other, we're happy to give you an honest

1505
01:17:38.239 --> 01:17:40.479
<v Speaker 20>market evaluation. That way you can make a decision if

1506
01:17:40.479 --> 01:17:42.840
<v Speaker 20>you can challenge this or you have you know, the

1507
01:17:42.880 --> 01:17:43.399
<v Speaker 20>comps or not.

1508
01:17:43.600 --> 01:17:45.840
<v Speaker 7>Plus you're going to figure out how much your home's worth.

1509
01:17:46.039 --> 01:17:47.880
<v Speaker 7>I mean Let's face it, if you've lived in that

1510
01:17:47.960 --> 01:17:51.560
<v Speaker 7>home ten or fifteen years, you might have no understanding

1511
01:17:51.600 --> 01:17:52.920
<v Speaker 7>of the value of that house.

1512
01:17:52.960 --> 01:17:53.359
<v Speaker 2>Believe it.

1513
01:17:53.760 --> 01:17:56.039
<v Speaker 20>Hey buddy, we just closed two properties. Now let me

1514
01:17:56.039 --> 01:17:59.239
<v Speaker 20>tell you about this. This this one Zillo said five

1515
01:17:59.279 --> 01:18:01.399
<v Speaker 20>oh five what the home is worth? Well, guess what

1516
01:18:01.479 --> 01:18:03.840
<v Speaker 20>we sold her for? Five to seventy body. We really

1517
01:18:04.199 --> 01:18:05.960
<v Speaker 20>got great a price on that one. We had another

1518
01:18:05.960 --> 01:18:07.560
<v Speaker 20>one we just closed, I think within a couple days

1519
01:18:07.600 --> 01:18:10.039
<v Speaker 20>of each other. We sold it so high we sold

1520
01:18:10.039 --> 01:18:12.199
<v Speaker 20>it over even the appraised value. So we had to

1521
01:18:12.279 --> 01:18:15.640
<v Speaker 20>challenge the appraisal because they came in short, and thank god,

1522
01:18:15.680 --> 01:18:18.239
<v Speaker 20>we won the challenge and we got it to a praise.

1523
01:18:18.279 --> 01:18:21.239
<v Speaker 20>But I'll tell you something, just because you see something

1524
01:18:21.279 --> 01:18:24.199
<v Speaker 20>online that doesn't necessarily make the actual market value. So

1525
01:18:24.239 --> 01:18:26.600
<v Speaker 20>we're going to show you a real honest analysis of

1526
01:18:26.600 --> 01:18:28.119
<v Speaker 20>where you can reach peak value in this.

1527
01:18:28.039 --> 01:18:28.720
<v Speaker 2>Market as well.

1528
01:18:28.840 --> 01:18:31.640
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, and it's really important. So on the sales side,

1529
01:18:31.720 --> 01:18:33.479
<v Speaker 7>if you need someone to sell your house, I mean,

1530
01:18:33.520 --> 01:18:36.520
<v Speaker 7>Frank's the man. He sells more homes in one month

1531
01:18:36.520 --> 01:18:39.159
<v Speaker 7>and most realtors in Colorado selling a year, So I

1532
01:18:39.159 --> 01:18:41.239
<v Speaker 7>mean that's it, and he sells him for more money

1533
01:18:41.359 --> 01:18:43.560
<v Speaker 7>sells him quicker. He knows how to price him, he's

1534
01:18:43.560 --> 01:18:45.920
<v Speaker 7>got the secret sauce. And more importantly, he knows how

1535
01:18:45.920 --> 01:18:48.640
<v Speaker 7>to advertise him. He knows how to get him out there,

1536
01:18:48.760 --> 01:18:51.079
<v Speaker 7>get people looking at him, find the people, get the

1537
01:18:51.119 --> 01:18:54.560
<v Speaker 7>bidding war. But for this particular case, I want everybody

1538
01:18:54.600 --> 01:18:56.960
<v Speaker 7>out there. If you look at that assessment on your

1539
01:18:56.960 --> 01:19:00.720
<v Speaker 7>property and you really think there's no way, I want

1540
01:19:00.840 --> 01:19:02.600
<v Speaker 7>you to reach out to Frank.

1541
01:19:02.920 --> 01:19:04.800
<v Speaker 2>He's going to do and it. You can do it.

1542
01:19:04.880 --> 01:19:06.520
<v Speaker 2>Do you have to go out there? Frank?

1543
01:19:06.560 --> 01:19:08.560
<v Speaker 7>Do you do most of them? I mean, if you

1544
01:19:08.640 --> 01:19:11.279
<v Speaker 7>have thirty people call you, are you going to go?

1545
01:19:11.359 --> 01:19:12.920
<v Speaker 7>Do you have to go to the house or you

1546
01:19:12.960 --> 01:19:15.159
<v Speaker 7>can do it right from your place?

1547
01:19:15.199 --> 01:19:16.079
<v Speaker 2>How does that work?

1548
01:19:16.760 --> 01:19:19.520
<v Speaker 20>So basically what people are asking us in general and

1549
01:19:19.920 --> 01:19:22.680
<v Speaker 20>under this circumstances, Hey, can you just send me comparables

1550
01:19:22.720 --> 01:19:25.880
<v Speaker 20>based on similar homes to mine? And they'll tell me, Okay,

1551
01:19:25.880 --> 01:19:28.159
<v Speaker 20>I've remodeled the kitchen, sins, I've done this, I've done that.

1552
01:19:28.359 --> 01:19:30.680
<v Speaker 20>We take that in consideration. We will get that to

1553
01:19:30.720 --> 01:19:33.760
<v Speaker 20>them in an actual report. Now, some folks say, hey, Frank,

1554
01:19:33.800 --> 01:19:35.840
<v Speaker 20>I'm actually thinking about selling the home. I'd like you

1555
01:19:35.880 --> 01:19:37.279
<v Speaker 20>to physically come out would you do that?

1556
01:19:37.359 --> 01:19:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely?

1557
01:19:37.960 --> 01:19:40.199
<v Speaker 20>So whyn't you had a number of different ways. I

1558
01:19:40.199 --> 01:19:42.880
<v Speaker 20>had one gal where she has a tenant living in there,

1559
01:19:42.880 --> 01:19:44.840
<v Speaker 20>and she says, Frank, I don't want to deserve the tenant.

1560
01:19:44.880 --> 01:19:46.640
<v Speaker 20>Can you just do something over the Yeah, sure I can.

1561
01:19:46.800 --> 01:19:48.800
<v Speaker 20>So we'll do this anyway you want us to do it,

1562
01:19:48.800 --> 01:19:49.680
<v Speaker 20>and we'll always make it work.

1563
01:19:49.960 --> 01:19:53.800
<v Speaker 7>Two years ago, so they did the assessments on odd years.

1564
01:19:54.079 --> 01:19:57.279
<v Speaker 7>So in twenty three, Douglas County tried to pull the

1565
01:19:57.319 --> 01:20:00.199
<v Speaker 7>same thing on me once again. I'm not going to

1566
01:20:00.199 --> 01:20:02.319
<v Speaker 7>get into numbers, but they said my house was two

1567
01:20:02.399 --> 01:20:05.680
<v Speaker 7>hundred and fifty thousand dollars higher or assessed higher than

1568
01:20:05.720 --> 01:20:06.640
<v Speaker 7>I thought it should be.

1569
01:20:06.720 --> 01:20:07.119
<v Speaker 2>Period.

1570
01:20:07.439 --> 01:20:10.239
<v Speaker 7>Frank did this analysis for me. He didn't even come

1571
01:20:10.279 --> 01:20:12.600
<v Speaker 7>out to the house. I mean, he found my house

1572
01:20:12.640 --> 01:20:15.079
<v Speaker 7>and he did the entire deal for me on the house,

1573
01:20:15.119 --> 01:20:15.840
<v Speaker 7>and he sold my.

1574
01:20:16.319 --> 01:20:18.720
<v Speaker 2>House before that, but so he knows the property.

1575
01:20:19.039 --> 01:20:22.319
<v Speaker 7>But he sent me that over and I went through

1576
01:20:22.399 --> 01:20:25.840
<v Speaker 7>the first part of trying to get it changed. And

1577
01:20:25.880 --> 01:20:29.079
<v Speaker 7>it's basically a zoom meaning in Douglas County. In fact,

1578
01:20:29.079 --> 01:20:33.239
<v Speaker 7>mine's coming up on the I think the the twenty seventh,

1579
01:20:33.279 --> 01:20:36.239
<v Speaker 7>So on the twenty seventh I'll spend about twenty minutes

1580
01:20:36.279 --> 01:20:38.960
<v Speaker 7>on a zoom call. They'll have what I get from

1581
01:20:39.039 --> 01:20:41.760
<v Speaker 7>Frank updated, same thing I did two years ago. And

1582
01:20:41.920 --> 01:20:45.479
<v Speaker 7>two years ago they agreed with Frank. They said, yup,

1583
01:20:45.560 --> 01:20:48.720
<v Speaker 7>you know what, these comps are right. We did overvalue

1584
01:20:48.760 --> 01:20:51.920
<v Speaker 7>the property. We're going to reassess it, and sure enough,

1585
01:20:51.960 --> 01:20:54.439
<v Speaker 7>we ended up paying a lot, well, I won't say

1586
01:20:54.439 --> 01:20:57.000
<v Speaker 7>a lot, but less taxes than we would have without

1587
01:20:57.000 --> 01:20:59.119
<v Speaker 7>this free report. So you're not going to get a

1588
01:20:59.119 --> 01:21:01.680
<v Speaker 7>better deal. And it doesn't matter if it's Douglas County,

1589
01:21:01.720 --> 01:21:04.680
<v Speaker 7>a rapo ho. You get the idea. I mean, if

1590
01:21:04.720 --> 01:21:06.880
<v Speaker 7>you're listening in Texas, it's not going to help you.

1591
01:21:06.960 --> 01:21:10.119
<v Speaker 7>But that's the deal. But Frank, what number should they

1592
01:21:10.159 --> 01:21:11.960
<v Speaker 7>call at? Just your normal number?

1593
01:21:12.800 --> 01:21:16.199
<v Speaker 20>Sure so, our main line is three zero three nine

1594
01:21:16.279 --> 01:21:19.399
<v Speaker 20>two zero one six two to two, or you can

1595
01:21:19.399 --> 01:21:22.720
<v Speaker 20>send me a text at seven to zero four three

1596
01:21:22.880 --> 01:21:24.960
<v Speaker 20>six eighty one fifty one.

1597
01:21:25.119 --> 01:21:27.399
<v Speaker 7>Give it out. Give them both out again, Frank. And

1598
01:21:27.680 --> 01:21:30.319
<v Speaker 7>here's the other thing, Frank Durant Holmes dot com. It's

1599
01:21:30.319 --> 01:21:32.960
<v Speaker 7>that easy. If you're in your car, Frank Durant Holmes

1600
01:21:33.000 --> 01:21:35.359
<v Speaker 7>dot com, you can get all the contact information there,

1601
01:21:35.439 --> 01:21:38.640
<v Speaker 7>the email, everything, but you're crazy. You're you're crazy not

1602
01:21:38.720 --> 01:21:40.880
<v Speaker 7>to do it. It's one hundred percent free. You're going

1603
01:21:40.960 --> 01:21:42.920
<v Speaker 7>to get to talk to Frank. You're gonna find out

1604
01:21:42.920 --> 01:21:45.479
<v Speaker 7>what the true value of your house is. There's no

1605
01:21:45.600 --> 01:21:49.479
<v Speaker 7>contracts designed, there's no tricks here. I mean, basically, Frank

1606
01:21:49.520 --> 01:21:52.640
<v Speaker 7>has done this for me. This will be the second time,

1607
01:21:53.039 --> 01:21:56.000
<v Speaker 7>and both times I'm telling you straight up, Douglas County

1608
01:21:56.159 --> 01:21:59.640
<v Speaker 7>said it was worth more. Did you get yours in yet, Frank,

1609
01:21:59.680 --> 01:22:01.960
<v Speaker 7>You're evaluation of your new house?

1610
01:22:02.319 --> 01:22:02.720
<v Speaker 21>I did.

1611
01:22:02.760 --> 01:22:05.399
<v Speaker 20>And here's the funny part. Mark mine actually went down.

1612
01:22:05.479 --> 01:22:07.880
<v Speaker 20>So I certainly was not gonna argue with that. So

1613
01:22:08.439 --> 01:22:10.119
<v Speaker 20>if that's what they feel, then we'll just leave it

1614
01:22:10.119 --> 01:22:10.399
<v Speaker 20>at that.

1615
01:22:10.600 --> 01:22:14.199
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, see that's crazy. Mine goes up by three hundred thousand.

1616
01:22:14.479 --> 01:22:16.920
<v Speaker 7>Two years ago, it went up by two hundred. Maybe

1617
01:22:16.920 --> 01:22:20.720
<v Speaker 7>it's the area I'm in. It seems to swing more

1618
01:22:21.119 --> 01:22:23.600
<v Speaker 7>than most areas. In other words, and I'm talking just

1619
01:22:23.760 --> 01:22:27.640
<v Speaker 7>Zillow Zillo seems to really change on my property a lot.

1620
01:22:28.039 --> 01:22:31.159
<v Speaker 7>Is that because there's so few properties out there? When

1621
01:22:31.359 --> 01:22:34.960
<v Speaker 7>just the couple sell, I mean, really, the whole thing changes.

1622
01:22:35.000 --> 01:22:38.640
<v Speaker 7>What why does it change so much? In small neighborhoods

1623
01:22:38.640 --> 01:22:39.960
<v Speaker 7>with property and stuff.

1624
01:22:40.399 --> 01:22:43.680
<v Speaker 20>Well, you know, market's funny. They I've read their page

1625
01:22:43.680 --> 01:22:46.439
<v Speaker 20>before where they have this formula they use and they'll

1626
01:22:46.479 --> 01:22:48.199
<v Speaker 20>base it, I think on the trends of the market.

1627
01:22:48.239 --> 01:22:50.399
<v Speaker 20>And of course there's not been home sales have been

1628
01:22:50.399 --> 01:22:52.239
<v Speaker 20>down a little bit, but there have been more inventory

1629
01:22:52.279 --> 01:22:53.760
<v Speaker 20>in the market, so I think that plays into it

1630
01:22:53.800 --> 01:22:56.199
<v Speaker 20>as well. But I think overall, I've been seeing this

1631
01:22:56.279 --> 01:22:58.560
<v Speaker 20>mark area to area and it's a funny thing where

1632
01:22:58.560 --> 01:23:00.159
<v Speaker 20>you can go to one area, take one home. If

1633
01:23:00.199 --> 01:23:02.439
<v Speaker 20>you could physically move it to another, you'd probably have

1634
01:23:02.479 --> 01:23:04.960
<v Speaker 20>a double the value. It's just crazy like that.

1635
01:23:04.960 --> 01:23:08.239
<v Speaker 7>That is crazy man. And well, Frank, I really appreciate

1636
01:23:08.279 --> 01:23:11.920
<v Speaker 7>you doing this for the listeners. It's it's just such

1637
01:23:11.960 --> 01:23:13.680
<v Speaker 7>a good thing to know. And then the other thing

1638
01:23:14.000 --> 01:23:16.239
<v Speaker 7>I'm going to tell people another reason to do it,

1639
01:23:16.319 --> 01:23:19.640
<v Speaker 7>even if you think devaluation is right or it didn't

1640
01:23:19.840 --> 01:23:22.199
<v Speaker 7>or it went down like Frank's did. The other thing

1641
01:23:22.279 --> 01:23:25.000
<v Speaker 7>is the insurance aspect of it. If you haven't seen

1642
01:23:25.039 --> 01:23:27.640
<v Speaker 7>the value the rebuild price of that house. And I

1643
01:23:27.680 --> 01:23:29.920
<v Speaker 7>don't care where you live. You can live in Castle

1644
01:23:29.960 --> 01:23:33.039
<v Speaker 7>Rock or Highlands Ranch or thirty five acres in the

1645
01:23:33.079 --> 01:23:35.479
<v Speaker 7>middle of the woods. I don't care where you live.

1646
01:23:35.560 --> 01:23:39.399
<v Speaker 7>But if you haven't checked evaluation, and that home that

1647
01:23:39.479 --> 01:23:43.199
<v Speaker 7>you love is insured for six hundred, but yet you

1648
01:23:43.239 --> 01:23:45.880
<v Speaker 7>can sell it now for a million in the rebuilds

1649
01:23:45.960 --> 01:23:46.600
<v Speaker 7>eight hundred.

1650
01:23:46.880 --> 01:23:49.000
<v Speaker 2>You're so underinsured. You're insane.

1651
01:23:49.039 --> 01:23:51.920
<v Speaker 7>If that, if it burns down or floods out, or

1652
01:23:52.159 --> 01:23:55.359
<v Speaker 7>whatever happens to your house, I mean, you'd be so underwater.

1653
01:23:55.840 --> 01:23:58.840
<v Speaker 7>Like all these people in Boulder. When the Boulder fire

1654
01:23:58.920 --> 01:24:01.880
<v Speaker 7>hit a couple of years ago, ninety what was it, Frank,

1655
01:24:02.000 --> 01:24:05.119
<v Speaker 7>ninety six percent of the people were uninsured.

1656
01:24:05.199 --> 01:24:06.319
<v Speaker 2>It was remarkable.

1657
01:24:06.720 --> 01:24:08.720
<v Speaker 20>That was rough. In fact, I held the poor lady

1658
01:24:08.720 --> 01:24:10.800
<v Speaker 20>who went through that. Now, thank god she was ensured.

1659
01:24:10.800 --> 01:24:14.119
<v Speaker 20>They rebuilt her home. But that was a tough situation, Mark,

1660
01:24:14.159 --> 01:24:17.000
<v Speaker 20>you know. But I'll say this, I'm thankful to you

1661
01:24:17.039 --> 01:24:19.960
<v Speaker 20>and thankful to the listeners because you know Mark, you

1662
01:24:20.000 --> 01:24:21.800
<v Speaker 20>know you know my story. Guys, when I used to

1663
01:24:21.840 --> 01:24:23.560

1664
01:24:23.560 --> 01:24:24.399
<v Speaker 20>was nineteen years old.

1665
01:24:24.439 --> 01:24:25.880

1666
01:24:25.600 --> 01:24:28.720
<v Speaker 7>This guy is one of the In fact, he might

1667
01:24:28.920 --> 01:24:31.239
<v Speaker 7>he might sell more homes than anybody in Colorado.

1668
01:24:31.640 --> 01:24:32.760

1694
01:25:50.880 --> 01:25:53.520
<v Speaker 7>over the years. In fact, I love getting together with him.

1695
01:25:53.560 --> 01:25:55.960
<v Speaker 7>Suzanne loves it. He has helped to show out in

1696
01:25:56.039 --> 01:26:00.039
<v Speaker 7>so many ways. But his story is kind of a

1697
01:26:00.039 --> 01:26:03.760
<v Speaker 7>amazing I think years ago I asked you about this,

1698
01:26:03.880 --> 01:26:06.319
<v Speaker 7>but I bet it's been about fifteen years because I

1699
01:26:06.399 --> 01:26:09.479
<v Speaker 7>had automotive shops forever and when we first met fifteen

1700
01:26:09.560 --> 01:26:12.199
<v Speaker 7>years ago, Frank, you told me that you worked at

1701
01:26:12.239 --> 01:26:13.960
<v Speaker 7>Sears in their automotive shop.

1702
01:26:14.520 --> 01:26:17.479
<v Speaker 2>I kind of forgot though. You were like the janitor there.

1703
01:26:18.600 --> 01:26:20.279
<v Speaker 20>You know, Mark I did. I started because that's the

1704
01:26:20.319 --> 01:26:22.479
<v Speaker 20>only job they had available and I needed a job, man,

1705
01:26:22.560 --> 01:26:24.880
<v Speaker 20>so I took what they can give me. And my

1706
01:26:25.000 --> 01:26:27.039
<v Speaker 20>mom and dad laughed because they know I'm not very

1707
01:26:27.039 --> 01:26:29.159
<v Speaker 20>mechanically inclined, and they thought that was crazy. I'd work

1708
01:26:29.199 --> 01:26:31.680
<v Speaker 20>at an auto center. But over time I became a

1709
01:26:31.720 --> 01:26:34.079
<v Speaker 20>service advisor and moved up to a position to be

1710
01:26:34.359 --> 01:26:37.640
<v Speaker 20>in a management position. But my dream was real estate.

1711
01:26:37.720 --> 01:26:40.680
<v Speaker 20>So there was a company across the street. And this

1712
01:26:40.840 --> 01:26:43.159
<v Speaker 20>even sounds kind of corny, but I used to just

1713
01:26:43.359 --> 01:26:45.359
<v Speaker 20>dream all the time, I'm going to be there someday.

1714
01:26:45.399 --> 01:26:46.680
<v Speaker 20>That's what I need to do. That's what I have

1715
01:26:46.840 --> 01:26:49.039
<v Speaker 20>to do, and I'm going to be in this business.

1716
01:26:49.159 --> 01:26:51.920
<v Speaker 20>And I was always very passionate Mark. So it's just

1717
01:26:51.960 --> 01:26:54.600
<v Speaker 20>a blessing because thirty years later, now you know all

1718
01:26:54.640 --> 01:26:56.960
<v Speaker 20>the doors I knocked on, all the calls. It's a

1719
01:26:57.000 --> 01:26:58.960
<v Speaker 20>blessing when people call me and say, hey, Frank, we

1720
01:26:58.960 --> 01:27:01.359
<v Speaker 20>need help, Mark, Because believe me, when you start out

1721
01:27:01.359 --> 01:27:03.079
<v Speaker 20>of business knocking on one hundred doors a day and

1722
01:27:03.119 --> 01:27:05.119
<v Speaker 20>hearing the word know all day and you get one

1723
01:27:05.159 --> 01:27:07.239
<v Speaker 20>person out of one hundred and fifteen, that says, maybe

1724
01:27:07.600 --> 01:27:10.279
<v Speaker 20>you're thankful for that person. So fast forwarding all these

1725
01:27:10.359 --> 01:27:13.000
<v Speaker 20>years later, we're so thankful for the people, and God

1726
01:27:13.000 --> 01:27:14.159
<v Speaker 20>bless each and every one of them.

1727
01:27:14.239 --> 01:27:16.279
<v Speaker 7>And your team is so great. You have kept the

1728
01:27:16.279 --> 01:27:18.680
<v Speaker 7>same team. I'm so glad your son's on board with

1729
01:27:18.760 --> 01:27:21.600
<v Speaker 7>you now. And these guys did you know this? Every

1730
01:27:21.640 --> 01:27:24.159
<v Speaker 7>morning they work out together, him and his son, Like

1731
01:27:24.279 --> 01:27:24.920
<v Speaker 7>five am.

1732
01:27:25.000 --> 01:27:27.319
<v Speaker 2>What time? Honestly, Frank, when do you guys get up

1733
01:27:27.319 --> 01:27:28.079
<v Speaker 2>and start moving?

1734
01:27:28.520 --> 01:27:30.600
<v Speaker 20>We're going about six six thirty in the morning. But

1735
01:27:30.640 --> 01:27:32.479
<v Speaker 20>I'll tell you this, I have learned to put patting

1736
01:27:32.520 --> 01:27:33.399
<v Speaker 20>on because we do sparring.

1737
01:27:33.520 --> 01:27:33.680
<v Speaker 1>Glad.

1738
01:27:33.640 --> 01:27:35.119
<v Speaker 20>I don't want to get hit by this guy. He's

1739
01:27:35.159 --> 01:27:37.840
<v Speaker 20>the dark marked. So I've kept me going though.

1740
01:27:37.880 --> 01:27:38.199
<v Speaker 1>For sure.

1741
01:27:38.279 --> 01:27:39.840
<v Speaker 2>You know what's killing me our kids.

1742
01:27:39.880 --> 01:27:42.479
<v Speaker 7>My kid's a little older, but miles like, he's taller

1743
01:27:42.479 --> 01:27:45.239
<v Speaker 7>than me now and it's so weird just thinking back

1744
01:27:45.279 --> 01:27:48.199
<v Speaker 7>when he was younger and I could pretty much just

1745
01:27:48.279 --> 01:27:51.319
<v Speaker 7>beat him in everything, and those days are over. It

1746
01:27:51.319 --> 01:27:54.720
<v Speaker 7>It's like, oh man, it's like I kind of miss him.

1747
01:27:54.760 --> 01:27:57.840
<v Speaker 7>But I love watching him mature and grow. I love it.

1748
01:27:57.840 --> 01:28:00.760
<v Speaker 20>It's incredible, buddy, and it's a blessing. And I can't

1749
01:28:00.840 --> 01:28:03.800
<v Speaker 20>imagine not being there for my boy, just watching him

1750
01:28:03.800 --> 01:28:05.439
<v Speaker 20>grow up. It just it goes by so quick, as

1751
01:28:05.479 --> 01:28:06.359
<v Speaker 20>you know, you know what I mean?

1752
01:28:06.479 --> 01:28:09.079
<v Speaker 7>I know, man, And listen, everybody out there, once again,

1753
01:28:09.199 --> 01:28:10.279
<v Speaker 7>get that valuation.

1754
01:28:10.479 --> 01:28:11.800
<v Speaker 2>This isn't a sales pitch.

1755

01:28:22.119 --> 01:28:24.479

1801
01:30:24.720 --> 01:30:27.680
<v Speaker 7>his game. It doesn't matter if it's residential or commercial.

1802
01:30:27.720 --> 01:30:30.479
<v Speaker 7>If it comes to buying property, if you just need

1803
01:30:30.520 --> 01:30:34.880
<v Speaker 7>some contract reviews, he is a real estate attorney that

1804
01:30:35.239 --> 01:30:40.840
<v Speaker 7>does it all. He can do property line disputes, fence issues, easements, access,

1805
01:30:40.920 --> 01:30:45.039
<v Speaker 7>adverse possessions, leans, you name it, this guy can do it.

1806
01:30:45.239 --> 01:30:48.479
<v Speaker 7>If you're a landlord in Colorado, and you have not

1807
01:30:48.720 --> 01:30:51.479
<v Speaker 7>updated your lease with your tenants after all the rule

1808
01:30:51.560 --> 01:30:52.720
<v Speaker 7>changes since COVID.

1809
01:30:52.920 --> 01:30:57.239
<v Speaker 2>You're absolutely insane. Send it over to Brad and make

1810
01:30:57.279 --> 01:30:58.920
<v Speaker 2>sure everything's up to snuff.

1811
01:30:59.000 --> 01:31:01.399
<v Speaker 7>So if you need to kick someone out, you can.

1812
01:31:01.800 --> 01:31:04.159
<v Speaker 7>And if you do have a tenant not paying and

1813
01:31:04.199 --> 01:31:07.199
<v Speaker 7>need someone to help with the eviction process, he does

1814
01:31:07.239 --> 01:31:10.119
<v Speaker 7>them all the time. Maybe you're a tenant that's having

1815
01:31:10.159 --> 01:31:13.760
<v Speaker 7>problems with the landlord not returning your deposit or your

1816
01:31:13.840 --> 01:31:18.039
<v Speaker 7>security deposit or charging you a pet deposit when that's

1821
01:31:35.720 --> 01:31:37.439
<v Speaker 2>Now this one is interesting.

1822
01:31:38.119 --> 01:31:41.319
<v Speaker 7>You know, people with hair transplants or people that want

1823
01:31:41.359 --> 01:31:44.159
<v Speaker 7>to get a hair transplant or thinking about it, shop

1824
01:31:44.199 --> 01:31:47.600
<v Speaker 7>around and what you're gonna find out is the prices

1825
01:31:47.640 --> 01:31:50.840
<v Speaker 7>are amazingly high. It could be twenty nine thousand. That's

1826
01:31:50.880 --> 01:31:54.720
<v Speaker 7>what happened to Nick Turner. He's the founder of recoveryrhir

1827
01:31:54.800 --> 01:31:57.960
<v Speaker 7>dot com. He went out and started researching, where can

1828
01:31:58.000 --> 01:32:01.640
<v Speaker 7>I get it done better, quicker and cheaper?

1829
01:32:01.960 --> 01:32:03.239
<v Speaker 2>And you know where you've found.

1830
01:32:03.560 --> 01:32:08.039
<v Speaker 7>He found the BAC Clinic and it's in is Stanbul, Turkey.

1831
01:32:08.720 --> 01:32:11.439
<v Speaker 7>And by the way, that is emerging as a capital

1832
01:32:11.520 --> 01:32:14.199
<v Speaker 7>of medical tourism. And what I mean by that is

1833
01:32:14.239 --> 01:32:17.199
<v Speaker 7>people actually turn it in to a mini vacation. You

1834
01:32:17.239 --> 01:32:20.199
<v Speaker 7>fly out before the procedure, you have it done, wait

1835
01:32:20.239 --> 01:32:21.920
<v Speaker 7>a couple of days, you get to see the town,

1836
01:32:22.000 --> 01:32:22.840
<v Speaker 7>then you fly back.

1837
01:32:23.319 --> 01:32:23.840
<v Speaker 2>He did it.

1838
01:32:24.319 --> 01:32:26.800
<v Speaker 7>He met doctor Nurrey and he kind of made a

1839
01:32:26.800 --> 01:32:29.199
<v Speaker 7>deal with him, saying, hey, this was such a great

1840
01:32:29.279 --> 01:32:32.039
<v Speaker 7>bargain and such a great outcome, I can't believe it.

1841
01:32:32.239 --> 01:32:34.399
<v Speaker 7>I want to start sending people towards you. And that's

1842
01:32:34.439 --> 01:32:37.119
<v Speaker 7>what they're doing now. And let me get to the price. Now,

1843
01:32:37.159 --> 01:32:41.279
<v Speaker 7>remember that twenty nine thousand, how about seven thousand dollars

1844
01:32:41.520 --> 01:32:44.640
<v Speaker 7>and that includes a hotel, the mini vacation, the airfare

1845
01:32:44.960 --> 01:32:49.119
<v Speaker 7>seven thousand dollars, and the staff is professional doctor Nurry's,

1846
01:32:49.119 --> 01:32:52.960
<v Speaker 7>the best after care is world class, and once again

1847
01:32:53.039 --> 01:32:56.840
<v Speaker 7>the added bonus, it's a fun trip to Turkey. Check

1937
01:37:28.239 --> 01:37:31.079
<v Speaker 7>All right, folks, three zero three seven one three eight

1938
01:37:31.079 --> 01:37:33.600
<v Speaker 7>two five five. We were talking about a kind of

1939
01:37:33.640 --> 01:37:37.000
<v Speaker 7>deep fakes in this program called Runway and David, I'll

1940
01:37:37.000 --> 01:37:39.479
<v Speaker 7>go to you in one second, I promise, But I've

1941
01:37:39.479 --> 01:37:42.760
<v Speaker 7>been playing around with Runway. It is the most incredible program.

1942
01:37:43.119 --> 01:37:46.560
<v Speaker 7>Dmitri was asking about it. You can download it. It's

1943
01:37:46.600 --> 01:37:49.119
<v Speaker 7>not free by any means. You buy credits, and everything

1944
01:37:49.159 --> 01:37:51.720
<v Speaker 7>you do costs a certain amount of credits. So let's

1945
01:37:51.760 --> 01:37:54.159
<v Speaker 7>say a thousand credits is a hundred bucks whatever it is,

1946
01:37:54.199 --> 01:37:57.439
<v Speaker 7>I don't remember. And then let's say, in order to

1947
01:37:57.520 --> 01:38:00.199
<v Speaker 7>do a thirty second scene in a movie, you have

1948
01:38:00.239 --> 01:38:03.079
<v Speaker 7>to upload a character. Now, if you don't have a character,

1949
01:38:03.199 --> 01:38:06.840
<v Speaker 7>you can actually create a character with other AI platforms.

1950
01:38:06.840 --> 01:38:10.079
<v Speaker 7>So let's say I want an eight foot squirrel that's

1951
01:38:10.279 --> 01:38:13.479
<v Speaker 7>very friendly looking that wears a top hat but it

1952
01:38:13.479 --> 01:38:16.560
<v Speaker 7>looks kind of human, and it has a magic wand

1953
01:38:16.720 --> 01:38:20.920
<v Speaker 7>and wears yellow nikes. It'll create this squirrel. Then I

1954
01:38:20.920 --> 01:38:24.399
<v Speaker 7>import the squirrel into Runway, and I tell Runway, okay,

1955
01:38:24.439 --> 01:38:27.439
<v Speaker 7>I want to create a twenty minute kids cartoon with

1956
01:38:27.920 --> 01:38:32.880
<v Speaker 7>D my new squirrel, and in the first episode D

1957
01:38:33.760 --> 01:38:36.399
<v Speaker 7>starts chasing a cat. And by I mean whatever you

1958
01:38:36.439 --> 01:38:40.840
<v Speaker 7>can come up with, and it creates this cartoon, or

1959
01:38:41.000 --> 01:38:44.000
<v Speaker 7>it creates if you're using a human as that character,

1960
01:38:44.479 --> 01:38:46.880
<v Speaker 7>it would create or both. It doesn't matter. You could

1961
01:38:46.880 --> 01:38:50.039
<v Speaker 7>have a human in a cartoon setting. Whatever you can imagine,

1962
01:38:50.560 --> 01:38:55.239
<v Speaker 7>it actually creates. So how like Disney and how a producer,

1963
01:38:55.680 --> 01:39:01.960
<v Speaker 7>how a movie producer or a commercial camera guy, how

1964
01:39:02.000 --> 01:39:04.560
<v Speaker 7>these people are going to have jobs?

1965
01:39:04.600 --> 01:39:06.840
<v Speaker 2>I just have no idea. But it's crazy.

1966
01:39:06.880 --> 01:39:09.239
<v Speaker 7>I basically said to it, I want, I want.

1967
01:39:09.399 --> 01:39:10.359
<v Speaker 2>I did a couple things.

1968
01:39:10.359 --> 01:39:13.600
<v Speaker 7>I said, I want a roofer, a bad roofer that

1969
01:39:13.800 --> 01:39:16.199
<v Speaker 7>shouldn't be a roofer, and he's up on the roof

1970
01:39:16.560 --> 01:39:19.119
<v Speaker 7>and he's putting a shingle in and he hammers right

1971
01:39:19.119 --> 01:39:21.479
<v Speaker 7>through the house and then he falls in. And then

1972
01:39:21.520 --> 01:39:24.920
<v Speaker 7>I also want a bad contractor that's working on a

1973
01:39:24.960 --> 01:39:28.119
<v Speaker 7>furnace and he punches a hole in the wall on accident,

1974
01:39:28.399 --> 01:39:31.000
<v Speaker 7>then the furnace catches fire. Then I want you to

1975
01:39:31.039 --> 01:39:34.439
<v Speaker 7>flash to the entire house on fire, and it just

1976
01:39:34.560 --> 01:39:36.920
<v Speaker 7>creates it. And then you've got to go back and

1977
01:39:37.079 --> 01:39:39.199
<v Speaker 7>edit it because it's not going to be exactly what

1978
01:39:39.239 --> 01:39:41.439
<v Speaker 7>you want. So then you go back and it costs

1979
01:39:41.520 --> 01:39:45.119
<v Speaker 7>more credits, of course, and you say, okay, well, if

1980
01:39:45.159 --> 01:39:48.000
<v Speaker 7>five seconds in, I want to change this, or I

1981
01:39:48.079 --> 01:39:50.840
<v Speaker 7>want the fire to look different, or whatever you want

1982
01:39:50.880 --> 01:39:53.600
<v Speaker 7>to do, and you could literally build an entire movie

1983
01:39:53.640 --> 01:39:54.039
<v Speaker 7>off of it.

1984
01:39:54.079 --> 01:39:55.279
<v Speaker 2>If you want it, so mark.

1985
01:39:55.359 --> 01:39:57.680
<v Speaker 17>So how much do they charge for a short video,

1986
01:39:57.720 --> 01:39:59.199
<v Speaker 17>let's say twenty five seconds?

1987
01:39:59.279 --> 01:40:01.880
<v Speaker 7>I realiz I want to say I bought twenty five

1988
01:40:01.960 --> 01:40:05.880
<v Speaker 7>hundred credits, and I get twenty five hundred credits every quarter,

1989
01:40:06.359 --> 01:40:10.319
<v Speaker 7>So I get ten thousand credits a year, and you

1990
01:40:10.319 --> 01:40:13.079
<v Speaker 7>can always buy more. And I think I pay about

1991
01:40:13.079 --> 01:40:17.119
<v Speaker 7>one hundred bucks every quarter. But in order to do

1992
01:40:17.159 --> 01:40:20.560
<v Speaker 7>what I'm doing a fifteen second video that I'm going

1993
01:40:20.640 --> 01:40:23.800
<v Speaker 7>to push out on Instagram all around the country for

1994
01:40:23.920 --> 01:40:27.359
<v Speaker 7>people that need free help, free legal advice. Basically for

1995
01:40:27.479 --> 01:40:31.399
<v Speaker 7>the show, I only need fifteen seconds. But to build

1996
01:40:31.439 --> 01:40:34.880
<v Speaker 7>a movie, I mean, you could spend yet maybe five grand,

1997
01:40:34.920 --> 01:40:38.399
<v Speaker 7>ten grand, but you could build Think about that, you

1998
01:40:38.439 --> 01:40:42.479
<v Speaker 7>could actually create a movie. You could use yourself as

1999
01:40:42.520 --> 01:40:45.000
<v Speaker 7>a You could take a picture of yourself and you're

2000
01:40:45.079 --> 01:40:45.920
<v Speaker 7>the superhero.

2001
01:40:46.680 --> 01:40:49.279
<v Speaker 6>I'm signing up. As you guys talk right now, I'm

2002
01:40:49.279 --> 01:40:50.960
<v Speaker 6>gonna report back in real time. I'm not kidding.

2003
01:40:51.039 --> 01:40:53.079
<v Speaker 2>So let me tell you how I found out about it.

2004
01:40:53.359 --> 01:40:55.399
<v Speaker 7>So we had new neighbors move in and he's a

2005
01:40:55.439 --> 01:40:58.079
<v Speaker 7>pilot for United and he's cool guy.

2006
01:40:58.119 --> 01:40:58.800
<v Speaker 2>Man, I like him.

2007
01:40:58.840 --> 01:41:01.279
<v Speaker 7>I was nervous because they're Coornians, They scared the hell

2008
01:41:01.279 --> 01:41:03.159
<v Speaker 7>out of me. I didn't know what to expect, but

2009
01:41:03.199 --> 01:41:06.479
<v Speaker 7>they're great people. They're great people. So we go over

2010
01:41:06.560 --> 01:41:09.000
<v Speaker 7>and we're having a little into production, just kind of

2011
01:41:09.039 --> 01:41:11.520
<v Speaker 7>a pretty small group of us where we live.

2012
01:41:11.560 --> 01:41:13.960
<v Speaker 2>There's like six, eight of us whatever, and our daughter

2013
01:41:14.000 --> 01:41:14.600
<v Speaker 2>happened to be there.

2014
01:41:14.640 --> 01:41:17.079
<v Speaker 7>So I'm talking to him and I'm like, yeah, we

2015
01:41:17.199 --> 01:41:19.239
<v Speaker 7>love our VN will be gone a lot. You know,

2016
01:41:19.319 --> 01:41:21.119
<v Speaker 7>we'll let you know when we're gone for six or

2017
01:41:21.159 --> 01:41:23.399
<v Speaker 7>eight weeks in case see anything. Blah blah blah. And

2018
01:41:23.439 --> 01:41:25.960
<v Speaker 7>I said, what do you guys like doing scan? He goes, no,

2019
01:41:26.119 --> 01:41:29.039
<v Speaker 7>I am so into AI it's crazy. And I'm like, well,

2020
01:41:29.039 --> 01:41:31.359
<v Speaker 7>what does that mean. He goes, well, I'm a pilot.

2021
01:41:31.399 --> 01:41:34.199
<v Speaker 7>As you know, pilots always tell you they're a pilot quick.

2022
01:41:34.239 --> 01:41:38.119
<v Speaker 7>I mean it takes like thirty five seconds. So anyhow,

2023
01:41:38.279 --> 01:41:42.439
<v Speaker 7>he says this. He goes, you hear of plane crashes

2024
01:41:43.000 --> 01:41:46.640
<v Speaker 7>and maybe people live, maybe people die. They happen all

2025
01:41:46.680 --> 01:41:49.680
<v Speaker 7>over the world. They've happened ever since there's been planes.

2026
01:41:50.359 --> 01:41:52.760
<v Speaker 7>He goes the ones where there's no actual video of

2027
01:41:52.800 --> 01:41:57.159
<v Speaker 7>what happened. He goes, I always like taking all the

2028
01:41:57.199 --> 01:42:03.760
<v Speaker 7>information from the FEDS what's it called, the NSTBI NTSB. Yeah,

2029
01:42:03.880 --> 01:42:07.199
<v Speaker 7>I like taking all the information and I'll feed it

2030
01:42:07.199 --> 01:42:10.199
<v Speaker 7>into AI. So let's say it was a seven twenty seven,

2031
01:42:10.720 --> 01:42:13.039
<v Speaker 7>or let's say it's say whatever it is, a MAX,

2032
01:42:13.880 --> 01:42:16.920
<v Speaker 7>something that we have no idea what happened to, Like

2033
01:42:16.960 --> 01:42:19.439
<v Speaker 7>the one that disappeared, we still don't know what happened to.

2034
01:42:20.199 --> 01:42:21.680
<v Speaker 2>He'll take all the flight.

2035
01:42:21.399 --> 01:42:24.479
<v Speaker 7>Recorder information that he can find, all the data from

2036
01:42:24.520 --> 01:42:28.439
<v Speaker 7>the NTSB. He'll start off on runway. And it's not

2037
01:42:28.560 --> 01:42:31.920
<v Speaker 7>called believe it or not, just because the program's called runway.

2038
01:42:32.119 --> 01:42:34.640
<v Speaker 7>It has really nothing to do with airplanes. That's just

2039
01:42:34.640 --> 01:42:37.680
<v Speaker 7>what he's doing. Weird, Yeah it is. So he starts

2040
01:42:37.680 --> 01:42:40.880
<v Speaker 7>out with whatever actual plane it is and he puts

2041
01:42:40.880 --> 01:42:42.960
<v Speaker 7>that into runway and then that's his character.

2042
01:42:43.399 --> 01:42:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Then he feeds it all this data, just.

2043
01:42:45.880 --> 01:42:51.079
<v Speaker 7>Constantly feeding data, and he'll recreate something as best as

2044
01:42:51.119 --> 01:42:54.159
<v Speaker 7>he can to see what that accident actually look like.

2045
01:42:54.840 --> 01:42:57.840
<v Speaker 7>It's cool as hell. You used to have to hire

2046
01:42:58.920 --> 01:43:02.119
<v Speaker 7>you've used to X where its used to spend millions

2047
01:43:02.159 --> 01:43:05.640
<v Speaker 7>of dollars coming up with these videos of what happened.

2048
01:43:05.920 --> 01:43:11.159
<v Speaker 7>Now a guy that understands AI and understands the industry

2049
01:43:11.600 --> 01:43:13.359
<v Speaker 7>can literally create.

2050
01:43:13.000 --> 01:43:14.319
<v Speaker 2>It in no time.

2051
01:43:14.439 --> 01:43:16.760
<v Speaker 7>I mean it's it's well, I won't say it no time,

2052
01:43:16.800 --> 01:43:18.520
<v Speaker 7>but on his spare time.

2053
01:43:18.800 --> 01:43:20.840
<v Speaker 17>So Mark, if we could, for just a moment, circle

2054
01:43:20.920 --> 01:43:23.680
<v Speaker 17>back to your video with the eight foot squirrel. So

2055
01:43:23.800 --> 01:43:25.600
<v Speaker 17>let's say you wanted a twenty five cents.

2056
01:43:25.640 --> 01:43:27.359
<v Speaker 2>No, they don't know what we're talking. Did I say

2057
01:43:27.359 --> 01:43:27.880
<v Speaker 2>that on air?

2058
01:43:28.039 --> 01:43:28.239
<v Speaker 7>Off?

2059
01:43:28.239 --> 01:43:28.720
<v Speaker 2>I forget?

2060
01:43:28.760 --> 01:43:31.439
<v Speaker 12>Sometimes you know I think you said that on air.

2061
01:43:31.640 --> 01:43:32.479
<v Speaker 2>Okay, keep going there.

2062
01:43:32.600 --> 01:43:34.079
<v Speaker 12>The eight foot squirrel with the top had in the

2063
01:43:34.119 --> 01:43:34.720
<v Speaker 12>yellow sox.

2064
01:43:35.359 --> 01:43:37.119
<v Speaker 17>So if you wanted to make that into a twenty

2065
01:43:37.159 --> 01:43:41.039
<v Speaker 17>five minute cartoon film in this case, they're not cartoons, right, well,

2066
01:43:41.079 --> 01:43:43.119
<v Speaker 17>you can do either. So and let's say you have

2067
01:43:43.439 --> 01:43:46.199
<v Speaker 17>three or four revisions along the way. What does a

2068
01:43:46.239 --> 01:43:47.199
<v Speaker 17>guy budget for something?

2069
01:43:47.279 --> 01:43:48.199
<v Speaker 2>I've never done one?

2070
01:43:48.319 --> 01:43:51.079
<v Speaker 7>So the fifteen seconds is probably going to end up

2071
01:43:51.119 --> 01:43:58.079
<v Speaker 7>costing me let's say a thousand credits, So a thousand credits,

2072
01:43:58.079 --> 01:44:00.840
<v Speaker 7>and I'm paying a BA basically one hundred month a quarter,

2073
01:44:01.199 --> 01:44:03.439
<v Speaker 7>so it's going to cost me less than one hundred bucks. Yeah,

2074
01:44:03.560 --> 01:44:06.840
<v Speaker 7>it's going to cost me five thirty bucks. You're asking

2075
01:44:06.880 --> 01:44:08.119
<v Speaker 7>me to do math on the air.

2076
01:44:08.840 --> 01:44:12.079
<v Speaker 17>Super reasonable pricing, and that sounds fascinating. I can't wait

2077
01:44:12.079 --> 01:44:13.119
<v Speaker 17>to see an example of this.

2078
01:44:13.279 --> 01:44:15.279
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, there's another one out there. I haven't done it,

2079
01:44:15.319 --> 01:44:19.119
<v Speaker 7>but it's advertised very heavily now where you can create

2080
01:44:19.159 --> 01:44:22.199
<v Speaker 7>a book. So you go on and I could say,

2081
01:44:22.239 --> 01:44:24.960
<v Speaker 7>I'm Dmitri and I want to write a book about

2082
01:44:24.960 --> 01:44:28.880
<v Speaker 7>my life, and I can literally answer a few questions

2083
01:44:29.479 --> 01:44:32.159
<v Speaker 7>and then give it direction.

2084
01:44:32.359 --> 01:44:34.199
<v Speaker 2>In other words, Oh, I remember when I.

2085
01:44:34.239 --> 01:44:37.920
<v Speaker 7>Was five years old, I grew up in blah blah blah,

2086
01:44:37.960 --> 01:44:40.520
<v Speaker 7>and do all this and answer questions.

2087
01:44:40.560 --> 01:44:43.439
<v Speaker 2>It'll actually you'll give it stories.

2088
01:44:43.359 --> 01:44:46.239
<v Speaker 7>And then it'll ask you questions about these stories and

2089
01:44:46.319 --> 01:44:48.479
<v Speaker 7>bring you through reading a book and next thing you know,

2090
01:44:48.880 --> 01:44:50.680
<v Speaker 7>your memoir is done.

2091
01:44:51.359 --> 01:44:53.319
<v Speaker 17>You know, this reminds me of a story from just

2092
01:44:53.359 --> 01:44:56.199
<v Speaker 17>a few days ago about a guy who was killed

2093
01:44:56.199 --> 01:45:00.920
<v Speaker 17>in a crash his and there was a subsequently, there

2094
01:45:00.920 --> 01:45:03.439
<v Speaker 17>was a lawsuit against the you know, the defendant who

2095
01:45:03.520 --> 01:45:08.159
<v Speaker 17>caused the death, and they created a victim impact state AI,

2096
01:45:09.079 --> 01:45:10.079
<v Speaker 17>it is that guy.

2097
01:45:10.279 --> 01:45:14.760
<v Speaker 2>It is the dead guy, grave from the grave. Did

2098
01:45:14.760 --> 01:45:15.760
<v Speaker 2>the judge allow it?

2099
01:45:15.920 --> 01:45:16.840
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, they allowed it to be.

2100
01:45:16.880 --> 01:45:17.479
<v Speaker 2>Judge allowed it.

2101
01:45:17.520 --> 01:45:20.000
<v Speaker 6>The family created it. That was I think there was

2102
01:45:20.039 --> 01:45:22.920
<v Speaker 6>the argument that they made this was the family communicating

2103
01:45:23.079 --> 01:45:23.720
<v Speaker 6>their loss.

2104
01:45:23.800 --> 01:45:26.920
<v Speaker 7>So there was one with the Trump team, uh not

2105
01:45:27.079 --> 01:45:30.000
<v Speaker 7>long ago, fighting one of these court orders on deportation

2106
01:45:30.199 --> 01:45:30.600
<v Speaker 7>or something.

2107
01:45:30.600 --> 01:45:33.880
<v Speaker 2>I forget exactly what it was. And they used AI.

2108
01:45:33.520 --> 01:45:37.479
<v Speaker 7>For a brief and what they quoted in there was

2109
01:45:38.119 --> 01:45:41.319
<v Speaker 7>AI literally made up. You know, oh you're honor please

2110
01:45:41.359 --> 01:45:45.479
<v Speaker 7>look at Smith versus Jones in case number whatever. AI

2111
01:45:45.680 --> 01:45:49.079
<v Speaker 7>literally just made one up. In other words, the AI

2112
01:45:49.239 --> 01:45:52.880
<v Speaker 7>they used made up something that never existed, but it

2113
01:45:52.960 --> 01:45:55.159
<v Speaker 7>worked perfectly for what they wanted.

2114
01:45:55.399 --> 01:45:57.319
<v Speaker 6>That as a reminder you need to check AI.

2115
01:45:57.560 --> 01:45:59.920
<v Speaker 2>And then the judge found out that it was all

2116
01:46:00.119 --> 01:46:04.000
<v Speaker 2>BS and was like, okay, this is not right. There

2117
01:46:04.039 --> 01:46:05.840
<v Speaker 2>is no Jones versus Smith.

2118
01:46:06.039 --> 01:46:07.680
<v Speaker 17>Yeah, they got in trouble. I think that was in

2119
01:46:07.800 --> 01:46:10.079
<v Speaker 17>federal court here in Denver. Actually, God was a couple

2120
01:46:10.119 --> 01:46:10.600
<v Speaker 17>of weeks ago.

2121
01:46:10.720 --> 01:46:13.000
<v Speaker 7>I thought it was funny because I really don't think

2122
01:46:13.039 --> 01:46:15.720
<v Speaker 7>they knew. I think if you don't, That's what I'm

2123
01:46:15.800 --> 01:46:19.600
<v Speaker 7>learning with Runway. The hardest part is learning how to

2124
01:46:19.680 --> 01:46:23.399
<v Speaker 7>communicate with AI. And I think what's even weirder about

2125
01:46:23.399 --> 01:46:27.319
<v Speaker 7>a program like Runway because it creates AI. It's learning

2126
01:46:27.439 --> 01:46:31.000
<v Speaker 7>you and what you want by all the revisions. So

2127
01:46:31.119 --> 01:46:34.439
<v Speaker 7>the more you use it, the more it understands who

2128
01:46:34.439 --> 01:46:36.359
<v Speaker 7>the hell you are? I mean, it's pretty crazy. I

2129
01:46:36.399 --> 01:46:38.960
<v Speaker 7>got to take a break. Any any questions or any

2130

<v Speaker 6>Well, you know what we want to do in any

2158
01:48:09.640 --> 01:48:12.960
<v Speaker 6>business is it's better to show than to tell. Let's

2159
01:48:13.000 --> 01:48:15.359
<v Speaker 6>show what the value of a business is. So I'll

2160
01:48:15.399 --> 01:48:17.800
<v Speaker 6>get photos from technicians all the time. They're showing what

2161
01:48:17.880 --> 01:48:20.760
<v Speaker 6>a system looked like before a clean and after and

2162
01:48:20.880 --> 01:48:23.880
<v Speaker 6>after a clean. Oh, that's very smart uploading those images

2163
01:48:24.600 --> 01:48:27.520
<v Speaker 6>than prompting what the process is to actually show that

2164
01:48:27.680 --> 01:48:30.760
<v Speaker 6>or have it describe what is in your system, what

2165
01:48:30.800 --> 01:48:33.800
<v Speaker 6>that means to your lungs, what you're breathing in. I mean,

2166
01:48:34.399 --> 01:48:36.520
<v Speaker 6>the options are endless. Also, it's just super fun to

2167
01:48:36.520 --> 01:48:38.760
<v Speaker 6>play with some of the photos of the technicians. Turn

2168
01:48:38.800 --> 01:48:42.119
<v Speaker 6>them into superheroes, that's cool. Or if they've made me angry,

2169
01:48:42.439 --> 01:48:43.880
<v Speaker 6>you can turn them into something else.

2170
01:48:44.119 --> 01:48:47.079
<v Speaker 7>How much would have let's say three years ago, Oh

2171
01:48:47.199 --> 01:48:52.680
<v Speaker 7>and you guys wanted to do like a realistic kind

2172
01:48:52.720 --> 01:48:56.000
<v Speaker 7>of cartoon, but it looks real. One of your technicians

2173
01:48:56.079 --> 01:49:01.279
<v Speaker 7>with the Cape Superman flying in cleaning the furnace thirty

2174
01:49:01.359 --> 01:49:04.880
<v Speaker 7>second television commercial. Honestly, how much would that have been

2175
01:49:04.920 --> 01:49:06.279
<v Speaker 7>three years ago? Production?

2176
01:49:06.399 --> 01:49:09.239
<v Speaker 6>All in fifty sixty seventy eighty thousand.

2177
01:49:09.319 --> 01:49:13.880

01:51:41.560 --> 01:51:42.359
<v Speaker 2>Hannah hell long.

2225
01:51:42.399 --> 01:51:43.079
<v Speaker 6>That sounds right.

2226
01:51:43.319 --> 01:51:47.359
<v Speaker 7>It's been a long time. George is incredible. He built

2227
01:51:47.359 --> 01:51:50.239
<v Speaker 7>this company up. Yep, and you guys just knock it out.

2228
01:51:50.279 --> 01:51:53.399
<v Speaker 7>But you've got this new product that I love. In fact,

2229
01:51:53.399 --> 01:51:57.439
<v Speaker 7>I know the product very well. Generak probably the number

2230
01:51:57.479 --> 01:52:00.640
<v Speaker 7>one home generator in the world.

2231
01:52:00.840 --> 01:52:01.960
<v Speaker 2>Definitely in the country.

2232
01:52:02.479 --> 01:52:05.119
<v Speaker 7>Most people that have a home generator are going to

2233
01:52:05.159 --> 01:52:06.920
<v Speaker 7>have a Generak, and they have different kinds.

2234
01:52:06.960 --> 01:52:07.600
<v Speaker 2>You can have.

2235
01:52:08.640 --> 01:52:12.760
<v Speaker 7>Diesel, most people, if they have natural gas, will have

2236
01:52:12.880 --> 01:52:16.039
<v Speaker 7>their Generak on natural gas. That way, if the electricity

2237
01:52:16.079 --> 01:52:18.920
<v Speaker 7>goes off. But you guys are doing something amazing. But

2238
01:52:18.960 --> 01:52:21.920
<v Speaker 7>it's only the first ten ten collars, Yeah, the first

2239
01:52:22.000 --> 01:52:22.840
<v Speaker 7>or this show only.

2240
01:52:23.000 --> 01:52:25.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, for this show only. They're offering ten percent off.

2241
01:52:25.560 --> 01:52:28.880
<v Speaker 7>So maybe you got a solar system and you want

2242
01:52:28.880 --> 01:52:31.199
<v Speaker 7>to back up. Maybe you just want to back up

2243
01:52:31.239 --> 01:52:33.279
<v Speaker 7>if the power goes off and you don't have solar

2244
01:52:33.399 --> 01:52:36.119
<v Speaker 7>or battery. Maybe you're thinking of off grid. I don't

2245
01:52:36.159 --> 01:52:39.560
<v Speaker 7>care really what you're thinking about. These guys can come

2246
01:52:39.600 --> 01:52:42.399
<v Speaker 7>out and tell you exactly what you can get in

2247
01:52:42.439 --> 01:52:46.159
<v Speaker 7>the Generak line, and it's incredible and I've looked at them.

2248
01:52:46.399 --> 01:52:48.800
<v Speaker 7>They have ones that will automatically come on, so you

2249
01:52:48.840 --> 01:52:50.000
<v Speaker 7>don't even skip a beat.

2250
01:52:50.039 --> 01:52:53.000
<v Speaker 6>So that's exactly what we have. It's within fifteen seconds, yep,

2251
01:52:53.359 --> 01:52:55.720
<v Speaker 6>power goes out. So let's talk about you know, food

2252
01:52:55.720 --> 01:52:58.239
<v Speaker 6>in the refrigerator, if there's medications, fires all back up,

2253
01:52:58.399 --> 01:53:01.439
<v Speaker 6>exactly anything you need within fifty teen seconds, it automatically

2254
01:53:01.520 --> 01:53:03.039
<v Speaker 6>kicks on. You don't have to press any button.

2255
01:53:03.560 --> 01:53:04.399
<v Speaker 2>It's incredible.

2256
01:53:04.880 --> 01:53:07.279
<v Speaker 7>And they do all the electrical I mean, fix it

2257
01:53:07.359 --> 01:53:10.880
<v Speaker 7>twenty four to seven. Of course they do electric, HVAC, plumbing,

2258
01:53:10.960 --> 01:53:13.840
<v Speaker 7>drain cleaning, they do all that stuff. So it's a

2259
01:53:13.920 --> 01:53:16.720
<v Speaker 7>perfect fit for what they do because they already have

2260
01:53:16.800 --> 01:53:19.600
<v Speaker 7>the electricians. They don't have to. When I was looking

2261
01:53:19.600 --> 01:53:22.359
<v Speaker 7>at generators, it worked this way. I would buy the

2262
01:53:22.439 --> 01:53:25.920
<v Speaker 7>generac and then basically I had to hire everybody else

2263
01:53:25.960 --> 01:53:27.880
<v Speaker 7>to hook it up. I had to have a plumber

2264
01:53:28.079 --> 01:53:30.000
<v Speaker 7>to come out and hook up the gas lines, I

2265
01:53:30.000 --> 01:53:32.640
<v Speaker 7>had to have an electrician, and it ended up costing

2266
01:53:32.720 --> 01:53:35.640
<v Speaker 7>me a fortune. So the fact now you're dealing with

2267
01:53:35.920 --> 01:53:38.760
<v Speaker 7>a company that does it all in house, all of it.

2268
01:53:38.760 --> 01:53:42.159
<v Speaker 7>It's an incredible bargain and they'll come out, they'll talk

2269
01:53:42.199 --> 01:53:44.560
<v Speaker 7>to you about it, they'll give you the different options.

2270
01:53:44.760 --> 01:53:47.520
<v Speaker 7>More importantly, they got to size the load, figure out

2271
01:53:47.800 --> 01:53:50.079
<v Speaker 7>what do you want on the generator? Do you literally

2272
01:53:50.119 --> 01:53:52.880
<v Speaker 7>want everything on it or you just want some rooms

2273
01:53:52.920 --> 01:53:55.520
<v Speaker 7>on it. They'll figure out whatever you want done, and

2274
01:53:55.560 --> 01:53:57.640
<v Speaker 7>they'll educate you on how they were.

2275
01:53:57.760 --> 01:54:00.800
<v Speaker 6>So essentially, how today is offer works ten spots. I

2276
01:54:00.800 --> 01:54:03.399
<v Speaker 6>think we've had five fill ups so far as a

2277
01:54:03.479 --> 01:54:06.279
<v Speaker 6>five at this point. How today's offer works is folks

2278
01:54:06.319 --> 01:54:07.880
<v Speaker 6>are gonna call in, They're gonna call fix at twenty

2279
01:54:07.880 --> 01:54:09.920
<v Speaker 6>four seven. They're gonna say, what I want is I

2280
01:54:09.920 --> 01:54:11.760
<v Speaker 6>want a technician, one of the expert teams to come

2281
01:54:11.760 --> 01:54:15.399
<v Speaker 6>out for this consultation. They're gonna show you that design.

2282
01:54:15.439 --> 01:54:17.960
<v Speaker 6>They're gonna show you which unit that they would select.

2283
01:54:17.640 --> 01:54:19.399
<v Speaker 2>But they design it, uh huh.

2284
01:54:19.119 --> 01:54:22.319
<v Speaker 6>And that consultation is on the house, did it, braebe.

2285
01:54:22.359 --> 01:54:25.840
<v Speaker 6>If you're part of this ten then what they designed

2286
01:54:25.880 --> 01:54:28.800
<v Speaker 6>for you it's ten percent off And you see every

2287
01:54:28.960 --> 01:54:32.239
<v Speaker 6>part of that quote. It's a we have never done

2288
01:54:32.239 --> 01:54:34.279
<v Speaker 6>this offer before, but it is becoming one of the

2289
01:54:34.319 --> 01:54:35.760
<v Speaker 6>most popular services that we.

2290
01:54:35.720 --> 01:54:37.239
<v Speaker 2>Provide, especially in Colorado.

2291
01:54:37.319 --> 01:54:39.199
<v Speaker 6>Oh my gosh, absolutely where I live.

2292
01:54:39.079 --> 01:54:41.520
<v Speaker 7>Out in Franktown. There's quite a few people. The homes

2293
01:54:41.520 --> 01:54:46.399
<v Speaker 7>we've been looking at in sly Dell Louisiana and people

2294
01:54:46.439 --> 01:54:49.920
<v Speaker 7>in Florida. It's not it's it's very likely if you

2295
01:54:50.000 --> 01:54:52.199
<v Speaker 7>live near some of the water, you have a generator.

2296
01:54:52.479 --> 01:54:55.960
<v Speaker 7>And it is becoming so popular because people simply don't

2297
01:54:55.960 --> 01:54:59.000
<v Speaker 7>want to be without power. The rolling blackouts are a

2298
01:54:59.039 --> 01:55:01.199
<v Speaker 7>big one, you know, and they have generators that all

2299
01:55:01.239 --> 01:55:03.880
<v Speaker 7>have no problem powering your AC. People don't even know that.

2300
01:55:04.239 --> 01:55:07.319
<v Speaker 7>I mean, these things are amazing if you can yeah,

2301
01:55:07.359 --> 01:55:10.479
<v Speaker 7>I mean the whole house absolutely entirely. And what I'd

2302
01:55:10.560 --> 01:55:13.560
<v Speaker 7>suggest so big time is the natural gas. If you

2303
01:55:13.640 --> 01:55:17.119
<v Speaker 7>have it, then you have all the fuel you ever need.

2304
01:55:17.359 --> 01:55:19.399
<v Speaker 7>But if you don't have natural gas, you can do

2305
01:55:19.439 --> 01:55:23.359
<v Speaker 7>a pro paine tank, you can do diesel. They probably

2306
01:55:23.359 --> 01:55:26.239
<v Speaker 7>have gasoline, but that would be the worst out there.

2307
01:55:26.279 --> 01:55:28.920
<v Speaker 6>Go ahead, Well, what we do is natural gas and propane. Yeah,

2308
01:55:28.960 --> 01:55:31.359
<v Speaker 6>and that's what we suggest across the board.

2309
01:55:31.279 --> 01:55:34.039
<v Speaker 7>And some payers will actually do a backup and listen,

2310
01:55:34.079 --> 01:55:35.840
<v Speaker 7>I've got a neighbor that did this, so he's got

2311
01:55:35.960 --> 01:55:39.520
<v Speaker 7>natural gas coming in. If the natural gas supply goes,

2312
01:55:39.760 --> 01:55:43.279
<v Speaker 7>he's got another feeder from a propane tank. So I mean,

2313
01:55:43.840 --> 01:55:45.800
<v Speaker 7>you just can't beat it. Hopefully you never need it,

2314
01:55:46.039 --> 01:55:46.920
<v Speaker 7>but man, is it.

2315
01:55:46.840 --> 01:55:48.000
<v Speaker 12>Cool to have yeah.

2316
01:55:48.000 --> 01:55:49.960
<v Speaker 17>I mean it's just like insurance, right, I mean, you

2317
01:55:50.039 --> 01:55:52.000
<v Speaker 17>hope you never need it, literally.

2318
01:55:51.680 --> 01:55:54.600
<v Speaker 7>And they're not nearly as much as you think. I mean,

2319
01:55:54.760 --> 01:55:56.960
<v Speaker 7>when I first started looking, I thought these things were

2320
01:55:57.000 --> 01:55:59.279
<v Speaker 7>going to be fifty sixty grand. I mean, you're going

2321
01:55:59.359 --> 01:56:01.960
<v Speaker 7>to be impressed by the prices, especially with that ten

2322
01:56:02.000 --> 01:56:02.680
<v Speaker 7>percent off.

2323
01:56:02.720 --> 01:56:04.600
<v Speaker 2>But uh, seventy two did they.

2324
01:56:04.479 --> 01:56:07.239
<v Speaker 6>Call the phone number the seven two zero five six

2325
01:56:07.319 --> 01:56:09.640
<v Speaker 6>thirty nine thirty nine to get signed up? Thank you, Susan.

2326
01:56:09.720 --> 01:56:11.640
<v Speaker 6>That's exactly what they do. And I want them to

2327
01:56:11.680 --> 01:56:14.159
<v Speaker 6>mention this show. Yeah, you have to because we've never

2328
01:56:14.159 --> 01:56:16.359
<v Speaker 6>done this special before. This is brand new, first of

2329
01:56:16.399 --> 01:56:16.800
<v Speaker 6>it's kind.

2330
01:56:17.079 --> 01:56:20.199
<v Speaker 7>Seven two zero five two six thirty nine thirty nine.

2331
01:56:20.239 --> 01:56:21.880
<v Speaker 7>You know one time, by the way, I'm going to

2332
01:56:21.920 --> 01:56:24.279
<v Speaker 7>give we've got three lines open, Joseph, I'll go to

2333
01:56:24.319 --> 01:56:27.439
<v Speaker 7>you in a second. Three oh three seven one three

2334
01:56:27.399 --> 01:56:29.680
<v Speaker 7>eight two five five. When George was in one time,

2335
01:56:30.600 --> 01:56:33.239
<v Speaker 7>him and I did this special. I think it was

2336
01:56:33.279 --> 01:56:38.479
<v Speaker 7>a nineteen dollars clean Okay, he forgot to tell home base,

2337
01:56:40.119 --> 01:56:43.039
<v Speaker 7>so he had like fifty sixty seventy trouble.

2338
01:56:43.119 --> 01:56:43.920
<v Speaker 6>He was in trouble.

2339
01:56:44.000 --> 01:56:45.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he was easy owner.

2340
01:56:45.439 --> 01:56:46.239
<v Speaker 6>Luckily, it's the boss.

2341
01:56:46.319 --> 01:56:48.479
<v Speaker 7>So people are like, no, I just heard it on

2342
01:56:48.520 --> 01:56:50.760
<v Speaker 7>the radio. They're like, we don't know what that special is.

2343
01:56:51.079 --> 01:56:54.000
<v Speaker 7>And so we had someone call up while George was

2344
01:56:54.039 --> 01:56:56.399
<v Speaker 7>here and goes, well, your people don't know what that

2345
01:56:56.520 --> 01:57:00.000
<v Speaker 7>special was. I assure you his people knew what that's

2346
01:57:00.039 --> 01:57:02.199
<v Speaker 7>special was in about thirty seconds.

2347
01:57:02.840 --> 01:57:06.399
<v Speaker 6>And trust be assured. Everyone our team back at the

2348
01:57:06.439 --> 01:57:08.159
<v Speaker 6>offices they know this special.

2349
01:57:08.279 --> 01:57:10.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's a it's an unslakable deal.

2350
01:57:10.479 --> 01:57:12.800
<v Speaker 7>So if you've ever even thought about it, and really

2351
01:57:12.800 --> 01:57:15.760
<v Speaker 7>you're thinking about a generator, you know, you get a

2352
01:57:15.800 --> 01:57:18.800
<v Speaker 7>free entire quote, you get to free design.

2353
01:57:18.600 --> 01:57:18.720
<v Speaker 4>You know.

2354
01:57:19.159 --> 01:57:21.119
<v Speaker 6>One of the interesting things for me also was looking

2355
01:57:21.119 --> 01:57:24.199
<v Speaker 6>what this does for home value big time on average

2356
01:57:24.239 --> 01:57:28.359
<v Speaker 6>increases it immediately five to eight percent out the gate.

2357
01:57:28.720 --> 01:57:31.119
<v Speaker 6>It's also something that people look for when they're purchasing

2358
01:57:31.199 --> 01:57:34.760
<v Speaker 6>to have that already installed. You know, you don't install

2359
01:57:34.800 --> 01:57:36.760
<v Speaker 6>it just so you can move. But that was fascinating

2360
01:57:36.800 --> 01:57:38.439
<v Speaker 6>to me what that does for the value big.

2361
01:57:38.279 --> 01:57:42.279
<v Speaker 7>Time, especially in places that are hurricane Of course, that's

2362
01:57:42.319 --> 01:57:44.600
<v Speaker 7>if we get a hurricane in Colorado, we got bigger

2363
01:57:44.640 --> 01:57:45.720
<v Speaker 7>problems in a generator.

2364
01:57:46.039 --> 01:57:46.520
<v Speaker 12>I think so.

2365
01:57:46.840 --> 01:57:49.359
<v Speaker 7>But the bottom line is it's crazy how much they

2366
01:57:49.399 --> 01:57:51.159
<v Speaker 7>add the value.

2367
01:57:50.840 --> 01:57:54.319
<v Speaker 17>Hannah, if ID said this correctly, does your generator get

2368
01:57:54.439 --> 01:57:57.680
<v Speaker 17>connected to the existing wiring infrastructure.

2369
01:57:56.960 --> 01:57:57.640
<v Speaker 12>Within the home?

2370
01:57:58.039 --> 01:58:00.880
<v Speaker 17>Where do you run all new yas and cables and

2371
01:58:00.920 --> 01:58:01.920
<v Speaker 17>break CERWS system?

2372
01:58:02.119 --> 01:58:04.399
<v Speaker 6>I said, that's about my pay grade. That's always send up.

2373
01:58:04.399 --> 01:58:07.119
<v Speaker 6>The technicians that do literally specialize in this, I.

2374
01:58:07.399 --> 01:58:10.760
<v Speaker 7>Know enough to be scary. If they have to run

2375
01:58:10.840 --> 01:58:13.640
<v Speaker 7>new stuff, it becomes crazy. You don't want to do it.

2376
01:58:13.680 --> 01:58:16.000
<v Speaker 7>So most homes they're going to be able to use

2377
01:58:16.039 --> 01:58:19.439
<v Speaker 7>your infrastructure. Yeah, and there's something else they can do

2378
01:58:20.399 --> 01:58:22.960
<v Speaker 7>that Hannah probably doesn't know. But if you don't want

2379
01:58:23.000 --> 01:58:26.760
<v Speaker 7>to wait that fifteen seconds, and most people would never

2380
01:58:26.880 --> 01:58:29.359
<v Speaker 7>do this, but let's say you had a solar system

2381
01:58:29.399 --> 01:58:32.279
<v Speaker 7>and you already had a battery backup, they can actually

2382
01:58:32.319 --> 01:58:35.800
<v Speaker 7>wire it to the generator. It knows the power goes off.

2383
01:58:35.880 --> 01:58:38.880
<v Speaker 7>That's going to be the smart box. It sends, the

2384
01:58:38.960 --> 01:58:43.760
<v Speaker 7>battery goes out and does everything while that fifteen seconds

2385
01:58:43.760 --> 01:58:47.359
<v Speaker 7>the generators starting and you don't skip a beat. That

2386
01:58:47.439 --> 01:58:50.880
<v Speaker 7>kind of system is really not necessary unless if you're

2387
01:58:50.880 --> 01:58:52.199
<v Speaker 7>in a commercial.

2388
01:58:51.920 --> 01:58:54.840
<v Speaker 2>Like a hospital. This building right here on top, or

2389
01:58:54.880 --> 01:58:56.479
<v Speaker 2>wait right outside.

2390
01:58:56.520 --> 01:58:58.399
<v Speaker 7>If you look down here, there's a thing that looks

2391
01:58:58.399 --> 01:59:02.079
<v Speaker 7>like a tractor trailer that's generator and how it works

2392
01:59:02.119 --> 01:59:05.600
<v Speaker 7>in here. If we lose power, we're still on the

2393
01:59:05.640 --> 01:59:08.680
<v Speaker 7>air while the power goes off because there's a battery

2394
01:59:08.720 --> 01:59:09.439
<v Speaker 7>in between.

2395
01:59:09.720 --> 01:59:12.680
<v Speaker 2>While that generator's firing up. We don't miss a beat.

2396
01:59:12.560 --> 01:59:14.880
<v Speaker 6>Hey, Mark. But as far as the backup to the

2397
01:59:14.920 --> 01:59:17.800
<v Speaker 6>backup like that, it could be crucial for someone on

2398
01:59:18.239 --> 01:59:22.279
<v Speaker 6>who using medical equipment at home residential, if they're on oxygen,

2399
01:59:22.319 --> 01:59:22.760
<v Speaker 6>I don't know.

2400
01:59:22.960 --> 01:59:26.119
<v Speaker 7>No, that's a great point, Suzanne, because even with that

2401
01:59:26.199 --> 01:59:30.239
<v Speaker 7>fifteen seconds, imagine if you are on oxygen at home

2402
01:59:30.399 --> 01:59:33.520
<v Speaker 7>or on a seapap. You know, people think seapaps are

2403
01:59:33.600 --> 01:59:35.600
<v Speaker 7>just for snoring. I've talked to people like I don't

2404
01:59:35.600 --> 01:59:39.840
<v Speaker 7>mind snoring. People die, people dock. I mean you know this,

2405
01:59:40.159 --> 01:59:42.000
<v Speaker 7>people stop breathing and die.

2406
01:59:42.319 --> 01:59:43.720
<v Speaker 13>We'll tell you when I first got out of the

2407
01:59:43.720 --> 01:59:46.479
<v Speaker 13>hospital leftter COVID. Oh yeah, and I was on oxygen.

2408
01:59:46.920 --> 01:59:50.119
<v Speaker 13>They gave me a big tank that was good for

2409
01:59:50.159 --> 01:59:53.600
<v Speaker 13>twenty four hours just in caves, right if the electricity

2410
01:59:53.680 --> 01:59:55.760
<v Speaker 13>went off, and I'm.

2411
01:59:55.600 --> 01:59:58.640
<v Speaker 2>Sure battery would work. Well, no, no, it was a tank.

2412
01:59:58.760 --> 02:00:00.760
<v Speaker 7>No no, I'm saying, but it was good for if

2413
02:00:00.800 --> 02:00:02.079
<v Speaker 7>the electricity went off.

2414
02:00:02.119 --> 02:00:05.239
<v Speaker 2>It took over, right. Yeah, so but that's another thing

2415
02:00:05.239 --> 02:00:07.159
<v Speaker 2>I didn't even think of, Susan And I mean, if.

2416
02:00:07.000 --> 02:00:10.119
<v Speaker 7>You have, you know, any kind of medical equipment, anything

2417
02:00:10.199 --> 02:00:15.119
<v Speaker 7>that's mission critical, having that generators insane. Almost every house

2418
02:00:15.159 --> 02:00:19.560
<v Speaker 7>we've looked at, not everyone, but everyone in Slide Dell

2419
02:00:19.720 --> 02:00:21.199
<v Speaker 7>pretty much on the water had one.

2420
02:00:21.319 --> 02:00:24.479
<v Speaker 6>Or even like having an electric vehicle. You can't charge

2421
02:00:24.479 --> 02:00:26.359
<v Speaker 6>your car, you're not going to work or something.

2422
02:00:26.560 --> 02:00:28.880
<v Speaker 7>That's another good one there. I would be a prophet

2423
02:00:29.000 --> 02:00:31.239
<v Speaker 7>good about that. You lose electricity and you have a

2424
02:00:31.279 --> 02:00:34.359
<v Speaker 7>Tesla and you didn't you don't have a gas vehicle, Yeah,

2425
02:00:34.439 --> 02:00:36.439
<v Speaker 7>you have no way to charge it. Bam, you fire

2426
02:00:36.439 --> 02:00:39.680
<v Speaker 7>around that generator. Your fifty amp is just cooking away.

2427
02:00:39.880 --> 02:00:42.680
<v Speaker 6>We're also talking about earlier the clientele and people are

2428
02:00:42.720 --> 02:00:45.359
<v Speaker 6>selecting this. When we first started doing the service, we

2429
02:00:45.359 --> 02:00:47.039
<v Speaker 6>thought it'd be folks in rural areas.

2430
02:00:47.520 --> 02:00:49.920
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, say it for what it is.

2431
02:00:50.039 --> 02:00:53.760
<v Speaker 7>Preppers, the people that order the people that order buckets

2432
02:00:53.800 --> 02:00:58.560
<v Speaker 7>of corn that's been freeze drive, the preppers.

2433
02:00:58.840 --> 02:01:02.439
<v Speaker 6>Well, we thought there would be a very specific clientele.

2434
02:01:03.199 --> 02:01:03.640
<v Speaker 2>Go ahead.

2435
02:01:03.840 --> 02:01:06.399
<v Speaker 6>What we have learned is the majority of folks doing

2436
02:01:06.399 --> 02:01:09.079
<v Speaker 6>this they are in the metroplex they're in different city areas.

2437
02:01:09.399 --> 02:01:12.319
<v Speaker 6>They're concerned about those rolling blackouts, they've been impacted by them.

2438
02:01:12.640 --> 02:01:14.880
<v Speaker 6>They are people like you just said, somebody in the

2439
02:01:14.880 --> 02:01:17.439
<v Speaker 6>home has a medical issue or they don't want to

2440
02:01:17.439 --> 02:01:18.159
<v Speaker 6>be reliant on.

2441
02:01:18.199 --> 02:01:21.279
<v Speaker 2>I think Ted Kazinski had a generation and Mark Mark.

2442
02:01:21.439 --> 02:01:24.720
<v Speaker 6>Let's not call them preppers. We'll just say they're experiencing prepping.

2443
02:01:24.840 --> 02:01:27.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we had a neighbor. I love them. Neighbor.

2444
02:01:27.079 --> 02:01:29.840
<v Speaker 7>Dave's probably my favorite neighbor. I've ever had no offense

2445
02:01:29.920 --> 02:01:33.359
<v Speaker 7>other neighbors. But he was a prepper. I mean big

2446
02:01:33.399 --> 02:01:36.760
<v Speaker 7>time buckets of food. He had enough. At one time

2447
02:01:36.840 --> 02:01:39.119
<v Speaker 7>I drove home. He had a deuce You know what

2448
02:01:39.199 --> 02:01:41.840
<v Speaker 7>a deuce and a half is. Oh yeah, full blown military

2449
02:01:41.920 --> 02:01:43.840
<v Speaker 7>vehicle he bought. I don't know what he did with

2450
02:01:43.880 --> 02:01:44.159
<v Speaker 7>it or.

2451
02:01:44.159 --> 02:01:44.800
<v Speaker 2>Where it is.

2452
02:01:45.000 --> 02:01:48.479
<v Speaker 7>It's probably in his underground bunker. Anyway, everybody hold on

2453
02:01:48.600 --> 02:01:52.039
<v Speaker 7>Joseph real quick. What is the question with ho Way

2454
02:01:52.079 --> 02:01:54.279

2457
02:02:03.039 --> 02:02:07.279
<v Speaker 25>the time. The HOA acts like their god and uh,

2458
02:02:07.319 --> 02:02:08.640
<v Speaker 25>you have no way to fight them.

2459
02:02:08.760 --> 02:02:10.760
<v Speaker 2>What are they trying to tell you to do? Or

2460
02:02:10.800 --> 02:02:12.359
<v Speaker 2>what are they finding you for?

2461

2462
02:02:20.159 --> 02:02:24.119
<v Speaker 25>and won't let it go. And it's like, well, what

<v Speaker 25>Where Westminster Church Rance and one hundred and fourth.

2484
02:03:40.680 --> 02:03:43.680
<v Speaker 7>So you have a car that has been broken and

2485
02:03:43.840 --> 02:03:46.319
<v Speaker 7>basically the ho Way said, you've got to get rid

2486
02:03:46.399 --> 02:03:49.199
<v Speaker 7>of it because it's it's not movable, right.

2487
02:03:50.560 --> 02:03:53.479
<v Speaker 25>Yeah, I'm rebuilding a mini Cooper with budget ay one,

2488
02:03:53.760 --> 02:03:56.880
<v Speaker 25>so it's stripped down, the motors pulled, and then I

2489
02:03:56.920 --> 02:04:00.199
<v Speaker 25>got it operable and then they came back and said no, no,

2490
02:04:00.319 --> 02:04:00.880
<v Speaker 25>you opinion.

2491
02:04:01.479 --> 02:04:03.479
<v Speaker 2>What does that mean? They said, no, you didn't. I mean,

2492
02:04:03.600 --> 02:04:04.680
<v Speaker 2>is it operable or not?

2493
02:04:06.159 --> 02:04:09.960
<v Speaker 25>No, it's not right now, but it was so and

2494
02:04:10.000 --> 02:04:10.880
<v Speaker 25>then it broke again.

2495
02:04:11.039 --> 02:04:13.640
<v Speaker 7>See here's the main thing, man, how much are they

2496
02:04:13.640 --> 02:04:14.800
<v Speaker 7>assessing you so far?

2497
02:04:16.279 --> 02:04:18.439
<v Speaker 25>Right now it's two hundred But they have a meeting

2498
02:04:18.479 --> 02:04:20.560
<v Speaker 25>with me and they're saying you never fixed it, and

2499
02:04:20.560 --> 02:04:22.960
<v Speaker 25>we're going to go back and leverage more fines on

2500
02:04:23.000 --> 02:04:24.119
<v Speaker 25>you or lean your house.

2501
02:04:24.560 --> 02:04:27.520
<v Speaker 2>Well they probably will too. They can actually put what's called.

2502
02:04:27.319 --> 02:04:30.079
<v Speaker 7>A super Liane on it, which to me is just

2503
02:04:30.119 --> 02:04:32.640
<v Speaker 7>the most insane thing in the world because in a

2504
02:04:32.680 --> 02:04:35.560
<v Speaker 7>bankruptcy and I'm not saying you'd go bankrupt over something

2505
02:04:35.640 --> 02:04:38.319
<v Speaker 7>like this a few hundred bucks. But in a bankruptcy,

2506
02:04:38.359 --> 02:04:41.239
<v Speaker 7>that's one of the things that doesn't go away. They

2507
02:04:41.279 --> 02:04:44.359
<v Speaker 7>can continue to assess fines and it's crazy. It's called

2508
02:04:44.359 --> 02:04:47.399
<v Speaker 7>a super lane. It's almost like the irs in some ways.

2509
02:04:47.720 --> 02:04:49.680
<v Speaker 7>Your best bet, and the best advice I'm going to

2510
02:04:49.760 --> 02:04:53.560
<v Speaker 7>give you, is get the car moving so the fine stop.

2511
02:04:54.119 --> 02:04:56.520
<v Speaker 7>Talk to them very nicely when they come out, and

2512
02:04:56.520 --> 02:04:58.920
<v Speaker 7>pay them the two hundred bucks. And I'm being straight up,

2513
02:04:59.399 --> 02:05:01.960
<v Speaker 7>I don't care if that's your hoa or most you

2514
02:05:02.039 --> 02:05:05.520
<v Speaker 7>have someone running that hoa or a management company. Some

2515
02:05:05.600 --> 02:05:09.119
<v Speaker 7>of them are horrible people. Some of them are like Nazis.

2516
02:05:09.199 --> 02:05:11.800
<v Speaker 7>They're just horrible. They have this little bit of power

2517
02:05:12.039 --> 02:05:14.279
<v Speaker 7>where they can assess stuff and they're going to use it.

2518
02:05:14.520 --> 02:05:16.680
<v Speaker 7>And when you pick a fight with them, they don't

2519
02:05:16.720 --> 02:05:18.960
<v Speaker 7>want to lose. They have to have the last word.

2520
02:05:19.319 --> 02:05:22.560
<v Speaker 7>So really, my advice to you is get it taken

2521
02:05:22.600 --> 02:05:24.399
<v Speaker 7>care of. I don't know where you put the car.

2522
02:05:24.479 --> 02:05:25.560
<v Speaker 7>Where can you put it?

2523
02:05:27.159 --> 02:05:29.359
<v Speaker 25>I can move it into my garage.

2524
02:05:29.479 --> 02:05:30.520
<v Speaker 2>That's what you need to do.

2525
02:05:31.479 --> 02:05:34.960
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, and out of curiosity, why didn't you do that before?

2526
02:05:35.039 --> 02:05:36.920
<v Speaker 2>Because you use it for a car, you're.

2527
02:05:36.800 --> 02:05:43.000
<v Speaker 25>Using Yeah, it's been musical cars. And the question that

2528
02:05:43.079 --> 02:05:46.840
<v Speaker 25>always becomes is, well, if they're not maintaining the neighborhood

2529
02:05:46.880 --> 02:05:48.880
<v Speaker 25>and if they're not doing this now it's like the

2530
02:05:48.920 --> 02:05:50.479
<v Speaker 25>old It's like the old argument.

2531
02:05:50.560 --> 02:05:53.079
<v Speaker 7>When the cop pulls you over, like Suzanne used to

2532
02:05:53.079 --> 02:05:55.039
<v Speaker 7>get speeding tickets like Pez candy.

2533
02:05:55.600 --> 02:05:56.279
<v Speaker 2>So when the.

2534
02:05:56.239 --> 02:05:58.039
<v Speaker 7>Cop pulls you over and you go, yeah, but that

2535
02:05:58.159 --> 02:06:01.680
<v Speaker 7>other guy was going faster than me, that doesn't matter.

2536
02:06:01.760 --> 02:06:04.359
<v Speaker 2>It's just simply it simply doesn't matter.

2537
02:06:04.439 --> 02:06:08.079
<v Speaker 7>You could have a guy with a sofa across the

2538
02:06:08.199 --> 02:06:11.560
<v Speaker 7>way that they're not finding in his front yard, but

2539
02:06:11.680 --> 02:06:14.079
<v Speaker 7>that has nothing to do with them finding you on

2540
02:06:14.159 --> 02:06:14.439
<v Speaker 7>the car.

2541
02:06:14.560 --> 02:06:17.720
<v Speaker 2>That's just how it works, man, And.

2542
02:06:17.560 --> 02:06:20.640
<v Speaker 25>That's exactly what it is. This neighborhood has really gone

2543
02:06:21.520 --> 02:06:24.239
<v Speaker 25>really bad because of lack of maintenance. But I wanted

2544
02:06:24.279 --> 02:06:25.159
<v Speaker 25>your advice.

2545
02:06:24.880 --> 02:06:27.239
<v Speaker 2>And I kiss my advice. And I'm not kidding.

2546
02:06:27.239 --> 02:06:30.319
<v Speaker 7>When you have the meeting, would I would literally say this,

2547
02:06:30.399 --> 02:06:32.319
<v Speaker 7>and I kid you not man, I'd be like, look,

2548
02:06:33.359 --> 02:06:35.760
<v Speaker 7>i've been in a bind lately. I mean it just

2549
02:06:35.840 --> 02:06:38.079
<v Speaker 7>makes up up. I mean seriously, like, hey, I've been

2550
02:06:38.119 --> 02:06:41.079
<v Speaker 7>in a bind. I'm just getting back up. I finally

2551
02:06:41.159 --> 02:06:44.399
<v Speaker 7>got the transmission done. The transmission shop had it for

2552
02:06:44.439 --> 02:06:46.520
<v Speaker 7>a while. I'm gonna push it into the garage. I

2553
02:06:46.600 --> 02:06:49.479
<v Speaker 7>really just don't. I don't want this battle. I understand

2554
02:06:49.560 --> 02:06:52.680
<v Speaker 7>the rules. Just you know, if I pay the two hundred,

2555
02:06:52.680 --> 02:06:55.039
<v Speaker 7>can we just move forward? I mean, really, I did

2556
02:06:55.039 --> 02:06:56.800
<v Speaker 7>do that, Dmitri, What do you think?

2557
02:06:57.039 --> 02:06:59.960
<v Speaker 17>No, I think that's it. It's nobody wants a junk

2558
02:07:00.239 --> 02:07:01.640
<v Speaker 17>car in their neighborhood break.

2559
02:07:01.720 --> 02:07:04.920
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, but he's saying like every other house has got something.

2560
02:07:05.119 --> 02:07:07.960
<v Speaker 17>Yeah, I mean that's probably not the defense, and I'll

2561
02:07:08.039 --> 02:07:09.520
<v Speaker 17>just do away with a car. I would hide it

2562
02:07:09.520 --> 02:07:12.479
<v Speaker 17>in the garage and then try to negotiate down whatever

2563
02:07:12.520 --> 02:07:14.039
<v Speaker 17>it is that they're trying to find you. I have

2564
02:07:14.079 --> 02:07:17.119
<v Speaker 17>a feeling their primary goal is to get rid of

2565
02:07:17.119 --> 02:07:19.520
<v Speaker 17>the junkie car that's in plane view. It's not the

2566
02:07:19.560 --> 02:07:22.079
<v Speaker 17>two hundred dollars. It's important to them. Yeah, I'm sure

2567
02:07:22.119 --> 02:07:25.319
<v Speaker 17>I would clean everything up and present the really good image, Yeah.

2568
02:07:25.279 --> 02:07:27.520
<v Speaker 7>Very good image, and just be nice to him. Hannah,

2569
02:07:27.560 --> 02:07:29.239
<v Speaker 7>what do you think have you ever been in trouble

2570
02:07:29.239 --> 02:07:30.199
<v Speaker 7>with an hoa?

2571
02:07:30.319 --> 02:07:36.000
<v Speaker 6>I've never had an HOA. I think being transparent. I

2572
02:07:36.000 --> 02:07:39.479
<v Speaker 6>wouldn't they transparent in this case? I think playing into

2573
02:07:39.479 --> 02:07:42.039
<v Speaker 6>the Mersey asking for that. Yeah, I think that is

2574
02:07:42.039 --> 02:07:42.560
<v Speaker 6>the way to go.

2575
02:07:42.760 --> 02:07:44.760
<v Speaker 7>I think it's his only way to go. When you

2576
02:07:44.800 --> 02:07:47.039
<v Speaker 7>get some of these people, the reason they run for

2577
02:07:47.279 --> 02:07:50.840
<v Speaker 7>HOA is because, honestly, there's something wrong with them.

2578
02:07:50.920 --> 02:07:53.159
<v Speaker 2>So I'll just say it. I probably irritated a lot

2579
02:07:53.159 --> 02:07:53.560
<v Speaker 2>of people.

2580
02:07:53.560 --> 02:07:55.359
<v Speaker 7>But either they have a lot of time on their

2581
02:07:55.359 --> 02:07:58.039
<v Speaker 7>hands and they want to fill time, and or or

2582
02:07:58.079 --> 02:07:59.319
<v Speaker 7>they want to be a policeman.

2583
02:07:59.520 --> 02:08:01.279
<v Speaker 2>They want to police their neighborhood.

2584
02:08:01.600 --> 02:08:04.159
<v Speaker 7>And if that's the person you're dealing with, the best

2585
02:08:04.199 --> 02:08:05.439
<v Speaker 7>way is to get on their side.

2586
02:08:05.560 --> 02:08:08.920

02:08:49.520 --> 02:08:52.720

2599
02:08:52.760 --> 02:08:55.560
<v Speaker 7>sent me from help at troubleshooter dot com. Michael says

2600
02:08:56.000 --> 02:08:59.239
<v Speaker 7>the super lean and I did know this, I should

2601
02:08:59.239 --> 02:09:01.560
<v Speaker 7>have mentioned it. But the superleen is available for up

2602
02:09:01.560 --> 02:09:04.119
<v Speaker 7>to six months of assessments, so if you do have

2603
02:09:04.159 --> 02:09:07.479
<v Speaker 7>a bankruptcy, it's basically only going to be six months.

2604
02:09:08.000 --> 02:09:10.399
<v Speaker 7>And he went on to say something that's very interesting,

2605
02:09:10.800 --> 02:09:13.880
<v Speaker 7>and that's my law. It's often the only way in

2606
02:09:14.239 --> 02:09:18.119
<v Speaker 7>HA gets paid anything from dead beats. Assessments in the

2607
02:09:18.159 --> 02:09:23.640
<v Speaker 7>normal course can continue to accrue, but the superleene never increases.

2608
02:09:23.680 --> 02:09:25.439
<v Speaker 7>So it says it that six months, and that is

2609
02:09:25.479 --> 02:09:28.920
<v Speaker 7>correct information. But it made me think of something. When

2610
02:09:28.960 --> 02:09:32.439
<v Speaker 7>I talk to people like that guy, I'd be curious

2611
02:09:32.680 --> 02:09:36.159
<v Speaker 7>what Michael thought. The guy that emailed that great information.

2612
02:09:36.399 --> 02:09:39.600
<v Speaker 7>I assume he's on an HOA board just because not

2613
02:09:39.640 --> 02:09:42.520
<v Speaker 7>only because he knows the information, but because he said

2614
02:09:43.439 --> 02:09:46.680
<v Speaker 7>paid from the dead beats. So I do want to

2615
02:09:46.720 --> 02:09:49.760
<v Speaker 7>say this, there are dead beats and neighborhoods. I've been

2616
02:09:49.800 --> 02:09:53.600
<v Speaker 7>in a neighborhood before where I couldn't believe it was

2617
02:09:53.680 --> 02:09:55.800
<v Speaker 7>Clark Farms. I'll tell people where it was. It was

2618
02:09:55.840 --> 02:09:58.359
<v Speaker 7>in Parker and it was in the early nineties and

2619
02:09:58.399 --> 02:10:02.000
<v Speaker 7>there was some neighbors that painted their house a crazy

2620
02:10:02.039 --> 02:10:05.359
<v Speaker 7>color without anything, and eventually.

2621
02:10:05.239 --> 02:10:06.239
<v Speaker 2>They had to redo it.

2622
02:10:06.319 --> 02:10:09.520
<v Speaker 7>But we had some issues like that, and there is

2623
02:10:09.760 --> 02:10:12.840
<v Speaker 7>a need for Hoa's my point in that last call

2624
02:10:12.920 --> 02:10:15.079
<v Speaker 7>to that guy. First of all, I think my advice

2625
02:10:15.199 --> 02:10:17.880
<v Speaker 7>was spot on, meaning it's time to play ball.

2626
02:10:18.000 --> 02:10:18.520
<v Speaker 8>Dude.

2627
02:10:18.720 --> 02:10:21.600
<v Speaker 7>You know you're not going to win this fight. Get

2628
02:10:21.640 --> 02:10:25.199
<v Speaker 7>the car inside and or get it mobile, get it moving,

2629
02:10:25.960 --> 02:10:28.520
<v Speaker 7>and pay the two hundred bucks and beg for forgiveness.

2630
02:10:28.560 --> 02:10:31.119
<v Speaker 7>That is probably the best advice anybody could give them.

2631
02:10:31.399 --> 02:10:34.079
<v Speaker 7>But I think I beat up on Hoa's too much.

2632
02:10:35.000 --> 02:10:37.800
<v Speaker 7>There's a reason for that. It's because the nature of

2633
02:10:37.840 --> 02:10:41.239
<v Speaker 7>this show. We get calls like that, and the ones

2634
02:10:41.279 --> 02:10:45.439
<v Speaker 7>that are frustrating are frustrating are like that guy because

2635
02:10:45.479 --> 02:10:48.039
<v Speaker 7>he's going, Hey, they're picking on me over this car.

2636
02:10:48.439 --> 02:10:50.560
<v Speaker 7>It's hard to I'm sure what he's saying is, how

2637
02:10:50.600 --> 02:10:52.960
<v Speaker 7>do they even know it's im mobile? In other words,

2638
02:10:53.000 --> 02:10:54.800
<v Speaker 7>it's a car as long as the tires are on

2639
02:10:54.840 --> 02:10:56.960
<v Speaker 7>it and the license plates in How do they know

2640
02:10:57.039 --> 02:10:58.439
<v Speaker 7>there's a transmission or not.

2641
02:10:58.479 --> 02:10:59.920
<v Speaker 12>Told us he had torn apart.

2642
02:11:00.039 --> 02:11:03.520
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, Well that's a big deal. But his point was

2643
02:11:03.800 --> 02:11:07.319
<v Speaker 7>what sucks is they're not doing things to other people.

2644
02:11:07.640 --> 02:11:10.239
<v Speaker 7>Well he might not know that actually, I mean.

2645
02:11:10.359 --> 02:11:12.359
<v Speaker 12>Know if they're getting fined or no.

2646
02:11:12.560 --> 02:11:15.840
<v Speaker 7>I mean, but really there is reasons for HOA and Michael,

2647
02:11:15.840 --> 02:11:17.720
<v Speaker 7>I'm going to tell you this. I do appreciate that.

2648
02:11:18.119 --> 02:11:20.319
<v Speaker 7>Even though that wasn't your point of the email, it

2649
02:11:20.399 --> 02:11:23.439
<v Speaker 7>was the information. It really did make me think of it.

2650
02:11:24.279 --> 02:11:25.199
<v Speaker 7>I don't think.

2651
02:11:25.000 --> 02:11:28.760
<v Speaker 2>I've ever have we ever had an issue with an Hoa, Suzanne.

2652
02:11:29.039 --> 02:11:32.880
<v Speaker 2>I had an issue with the apartment complex, but that's different.

2653
02:11:33.199 --> 02:11:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't think so.

2654
02:11:35.279 --> 02:11:38.520
<v Speaker 6>I don't think we ever got like fined or I

2655
02:11:38.520 --> 02:11:39.159
<v Speaker 6>don't think so.

2656
02:11:39.319 --> 02:11:41.760
<v Speaker 7>I never got into it with an HOA. I did

2657
02:11:41.760 --> 02:11:44.399
<v Speaker 7>get into it with a management company of an apartment

2658
02:11:44.840 --> 02:11:48.399
<v Speaker 7>and I've told the story before, but the bottom line

2659
02:11:48.439 --> 02:11:52.119
<v Speaker 7>was this. Basically, we had a car that's transmission was

2660
02:11:52.159 --> 02:11:56.199
<v Speaker 7>out crazy as that sounds, and Suzanne was probably I

2661
02:11:56.199 --> 02:11:57.520
<v Speaker 7>don't know, maybe seventeen.

2662
02:11:57.600 --> 02:12:00.479
<v Speaker 2>I was nineteen, yeah, and it was.

2663
02:12:00.439 --> 02:12:04.199
<v Speaker 7>Our first apartment, literally our first apartment together, I should

2664
02:12:04.239 --> 02:12:07.000
<v Speaker 7>say that, and they.

2665
02:12:06.880 --> 02:12:07.680
<v Speaker 2>Towed my car.

2666
02:12:07.840 --> 02:12:10.359
<v Speaker 7>My friend Lonnie came over. It was a nineteen seventy

2667
02:12:10.439 --> 02:12:13.600
<v Speaker 7>nine Ford Granada and it was a C four transmission

2668
02:12:13.600 --> 02:12:17.119
<v Speaker 7>and they towed it. We ran up to grab a part.

2669
02:12:17.239 --> 02:12:19.680
<v Speaker 7>When we came back, the car was gone. We only

2670
02:12:19.720 --> 02:12:22.479
<v Speaker 7>had it. We only had the transmission out. It was

2671
02:12:22.600 --> 02:12:25.000
<v Speaker 7>just a remove and replace, drop it, put it back in.

2672
02:12:25.079 --> 02:12:28.039
<v Speaker 7>We're not like rebuilding it. But anyhow we were working

2673
02:12:28.039 --> 02:12:28.319
<v Speaker 7>on it.

2674
02:12:28.359 --> 02:12:29.079
<v Speaker 2>That was a no no.

2675
02:12:29.159 --> 02:12:31.880
<v Speaker 7>And they towed the car like within a three hour window.

2676
02:12:32.159 --> 02:12:35.199
<v Speaker 7>It was insane. So I had a big We owned

2677
02:12:35.199 --> 02:12:36.680
<v Speaker 7>a cake route at the time, so I had a

2678
02:12:36.680 --> 02:12:39.960
<v Speaker 7>big Hostess truck the size of just massive, like a

2679
02:12:40.079 --> 02:12:44.319
<v Speaker 7>UPS truck. So I put on it vector properties. The

2680
02:12:44.399 --> 02:12:49.560
<v Speaker 7>management of Sugarberry apartments are deadbeats, do not rent here.

2681
02:12:50.000 --> 02:12:52.840
<v Speaker 7>And I do remember the name of the management company

2682
02:12:52.880 --> 02:12:53.720
<v Speaker 7>in the apartments, but.

2683
02:12:53.960 --> 02:12:58.079
<v Speaker 2>I put this properties. I remember, yeah, vector Property, Sugarberry.

2684
02:12:58.359 --> 02:13:00.880
<v Speaker 7>So what I would do then is I started parking

2685
02:13:01.000 --> 02:13:04.399
<v Speaker 7>right at the leasing office up front. So within about

2686
02:13:04.399 --> 02:13:07.039
<v Speaker 7>twenty four hours or one day of doing it. And

2687
02:13:07.319 --> 02:13:09.880
<v Speaker 7>this was the kind of apartment complex they drive people

2688
02:13:09.880 --> 02:13:12.840
<v Speaker 7>around on golf carts. I'd follow people around with my

2689
02:13:13.119 --> 02:13:17.159
<v Speaker 7>Hostess truck with the message behind their golf carts and

2690
02:13:17.199 --> 02:13:21.119
<v Speaker 7>I would talk to people. Well, what happened was they

2691
02:13:21.479 --> 02:13:24.520
<v Speaker 7>got my car towed back and we put the transmission

2692
02:13:24.560 --> 02:13:29.039
<v Speaker 7>back in, and I was happy that's what happened, but

2693
02:13:29.119 --> 02:13:30.800
<v Speaker 7>I was made I had to go through all that.

2694
02:13:31.000 --> 02:13:33.319
<v Speaker 7>Think of all the time I went through to prove

2695
02:13:33.399 --> 02:13:36.079
<v Speaker 7>my point. But anyhow, I just stand your point. But

2696
02:13:36.119 --> 02:13:38.560
<v Speaker 7>I don't understand what the giant Hostess truck had.

2697
02:13:38.399 --> 02:13:38.960
<v Speaker 12>To do with it.

2698
02:13:39.319 --> 02:13:42.479
<v Speaker 7>Well, it was a big area because on the side

2699
02:13:42.479 --> 02:13:45.199
<v Speaker 7>of it, I put a massive message on it.

2700
02:13:45.439 --> 02:13:48.520
<v Speaker 2>What was the message that the apartment complex sucked?

2701
02:13:49.840 --> 02:13:52.199
<v Speaker 7>And I parked it right in front of where people

2702
02:13:52.239 --> 02:13:53.720
<v Speaker 7>go into leasey apartments.

2703
02:13:54.840 --> 02:13:56.119
<v Speaker 2>Does that make sense now?

2704
02:13:56.600 --> 02:13:57.960
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, that's impressive.

2705
02:13:58.119 --> 02:14:00.960
<v Speaker 2>So within twenty four hours they had my car towed

2706
02:14:01.039 --> 02:14:04.479
<v Speaker 2>back and allowed me time to put the transmission in.

2707
02:14:05.119 --> 02:14:08.159
<v Speaker 7>So you know, that's maybe that's why I do a

2708
02:14:08.199 --> 02:14:10.960
<v Speaker 7>show like this. Hey, Gordon, what's going on with you?

2709
02:14:11.000 --> 02:14:15.960
<v Speaker 26>Sir? Yeah, thanks for taking my call. Of course, Gordon,

2710
02:14:17.119 --> 02:14:19.479
<v Speaker 26>I had a comment about that sixteen year old kid

2711
02:14:20.119 --> 02:14:23.880
<v Speaker 26>that got arrested for DUI. I heard it on the podcast.

2712
02:14:24.000 --> 02:14:25.760
<v Speaker 23>Oh yeah, from a few days ago Mark and the

2713
02:14:25.880 --> 02:14:28.880
<v Speaker 23>dad was really upset and his son was completely sober.

2714
02:14:29.159 --> 02:14:30.560
<v Speaker 7>Let me do this, Gordon. I'm going to put you

2715
02:14:30.600 --> 02:14:32.520
<v Speaker 7>on hold. I'm going to take you right after the break,

2716
02:14:32.520 --> 02:14:34.800
<v Speaker 7>but I'll recap for everybody. A couple of days ago,

2717
02:14:34.840 --> 02:14:38.840
<v Speaker 7>guy calls up Parker Police Department pulled his kid over.

2718
02:14:38.920 --> 02:14:41.520
<v Speaker 7>He was coming back from a lacrosse game. Sixteen year

2719
02:14:41.560 --> 02:14:44.840
<v Speaker 7>old kid, new driver. Of course, the cop pulled him

2720
02:14:44.840 --> 02:14:47.000
<v Speaker 7>over because he had his headlights off and it was

2721
02:14:47.159 --> 02:14:49.760
<v Speaker 7>dusk and possibly dark.

2722
02:14:49.840 --> 02:14:50.199
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

2723
02:14:50.239 --> 02:14:52.560
<v Speaker 7>I didn't even get into that part, but he pulled

2724
02:14:52.600 --> 02:14:55.119
<v Speaker 7>him over for that. And I guess the kid when

2725
02:14:55.119 --> 02:14:57.680
<v Speaker 7>he was pulling over might have scraped one of his tires.

2726
02:14:58.159 --> 02:15:03.600
<v Speaker 7>Pulled him over, and what happened was he had bloodshot eyes.

2727
02:15:03.640 --> 02:15:08.399
<v Speaker 7>According to the cop, he did take a roadside sobriety

2728
02:15:08.720 --> 02:15:11.239
<v Speaker 7>where you touch your nose and walk or whatever that

2729
02:15:11.279 --> 02:15:11.720
<v Speaker 7>looks like.

2730
02:15:11.760 --> 02:15:12.399
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure.

2731
02:15:12.640 --> 02:15:16.399
<v Speaker 7>So they did do that, and then the kid said

2732
02:15:16.439 --> 02:15:20.119
<v Speaker 7>he hadn't been drinking. The cop arrested him, brought him

2733
02:15:20.119 --> 02:15:24.520
<v Speaker 7>down to the police station. He blew zeros, He had

2734
02:15:24.560 --> 02:15:28.560
<v Speaker 7>no drugs, he had no alcohol, nothing. The cop said

2735
02:15:28.600 --> 02:15:31.319
<v Speaker 7>he made a mistake and the father came and picked

2736
02:15:31.399 --> 02:15:34.279
<v Speaker 7>him up. We had police officers calling about in a

2737
02:15:34.319 --> 02:15:36.600
<v Speaker 7>lot of things. I'll be curious what Gordon has to

2738
02:15:36.640 --> 02:15:37.199
<v Speaker 7>say about it.

<v Speaker 7>for DUI the blewe Zeros in Parker.

2751
02:16:16.000 --> 02:16:18.239
<v Speaker 2>Gordon, what do you say, sir.

2752
02:16:20.079 --> 02:16:23.560
<v Speaker 26>Well, first of all, I'll tell you where I'm coming from. Sure,

2753
02:16:23.880 --> 02:16:30.920
<v Speaker 26>I'm a held a CDL majority of my life, and

2754
02:16:31.119 --> 02:16:34.639
<v Speaker 26>pretty much every company I worked for required us to

2755
02:16:34.680 --> 02:16:37.399
<v Speaker 26>take defensive driving courses, probably.

2756
02:16:37.159 --> 02:16:38.319
<v Speaker 9>At least once a year.

2757
02:16:40.079 --> 02:16:41.319
<v Speaker 2>Got it and that part.

2758
02:16:41.159 --> 02:16:43.959
<v Speaker 26>Of the part of those courses were too kind of

2759
02:16:44.040 --> 02:16:51.280
<v Speaker 26>read what other drivers are doing? Okay, and this kid

2760
02:16:51.319 --> 02:16:52.959
<v Speaker 26>had three strikes against him.

2761
02:16:53.440 --> 02:16:57.040
<v Speaker 2>Well, he had his headlights off, he also had he

2762
02:16:57.120 --> 02:16:59.479
<v Speaker 2>hit the curb, and I assume you're saying the third

2763
02:16:59.479 --> 02:17:02.159
<v Speaker 2>strike was the red eyes exactly.

2764
02:17:02.280 --> 02:17:07.079
<v Speaker 26>Yeah, I agree, and that's and yeah, I would be

2765
02:17:07.159 --> 02:17:09.680
<v Speaker 26>mad too. I don't blame him for being mad.

2766
02:17:10.000 --> 02:17:14.200
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, the father, the father was mad as hell. He

2767
02:17:14.280 --> 02:17:17.200
<v Speaker 7>wanted to sue him. I don't know what you would

2768
02:17:17.239 --> 02:17:19.840
<v Speaker 7>possibly sue for. I thought that was silly. But I

2769
02:17:20.159 --> 02:17:22.840
<v Speaker 7>will say this, I would be upset at as a

2770
02:17:22.879 --> 02:17:27.000
<v Speaker 7>father too. First of all, I'd be relieved because i'd

2771
02:17:27.000 --> 02:17:29.479
<v Speaker 7>probably kill my kid if he was drinking at sixteen

2772
02:17:29.559 --> 02:17:33.239
<v Speaker 7>and driving. But when they blow zeros, I'd be very

2773
02:17:33.719 --> 02:17:37.000
<v Speaker 7>Imagine the phone call Dad, They're getting ready to take

2774
02:17:37.040 --> 02:17:40.000
<v Speaker 7>me to the police station for a DUI, and then

2775
02:17:40.120 --> 02:17:42.000
<v Speaker 7>you've got to go down and get the kid. Then

2776
02:17:42.040 --> 02:17:44.799
<v Speaker 7>you get down there and find out he wasn't drinking.

2777
02:17:44.840 --> 02:17:45.799
<v Speaker 7>I'd be pissed.

2778
02:17:45.879 --> 02:17:46.120
<v Speaker 25>Man.

2779
02:17:47.639 --> 02:17:50.920
<v Speaker 26>Oh yeah, I would too. But you know, everybody that

2780
02:17:51.200 --> 02:17:54.399
<v Speaker 26>gets pulled over, that's one of the first things they

2781
02:17:54.440 --> 02:17:55.760
<v Speaker 26>ask you is you've been drinking?

2782
02:17:55.879 --> 02:17:56.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And he said no.

2783
02:17:57.120 --> 02:17:57.680
<v Speaker 10>Say no.

2784
02:17:57.879 --> 02:17:58.280
<v Speaker 12>Yeah.

2785
02:17:58.360 --> 02:17:59.399
<v Speaker 26>Everybody says no.

2786
02:18:00.440 --> 02:18:04.319
<v Speaker 2>Sweet And I get it, Gordon. And the CDL is

2787
02:18:04.360 --> 02:18:05.280
<v Speaker 2>a big deal. Man.

2788
02:18:05.600 --> 02:18:08.440
<v Speaker 7>If you get caught with any alcohol in your system

2789
02:18:08.479 --> 02:18:11.360
<v Speaker 7>with the CDL, you're cooked, right, I mean even under

2790
02:18:11.399 --> 02:18:14.799
<v Speaker 7>the limit exactly. Yeah, that's a big deal, and I

2791
02:18:14.840 --> 02:18:17.479
<v Speaker 7>appreciate the comment. The only reason if you want to

2792

02:19:06.959 --> 02:19:11.440
<v Speaker 10>east of I twenty five from exit two forty exit. Basically,

2812
02:19:13.799 --> 02:19:18.000
<v Speaker 10>we were going to give away some NASCAR tickets for

2813
02:19:18.079 --> 02:19:21.639
<v Speaker 10>the good for Colorado National Speedway. Now, we're a sponsor

2814
02:19:21.639 --> 02:19:23.799
<v Speaker 10>of THEIRS and they sponsor UP and we kind of

2815
02:19:23.799 --> 02:19:29.239
<v Speaker 10>do things together. So for your callers, if they register this,

2816
02:19:29.360 --> 02:19:31.719
<v Speaker 10>you don't have to have reservations to go to the

2817
02:19:31.840 --> 02:19:34.200
<v Speaker 10>beer garden, but it's recommended because we only have a

2818
02:19:34.239 --> 02:19:39.959
<v Speaker 10>twenty five person capacity. They go on and register and

2819
02:19:40.079 --> 02:19:45.200
<v Speaker 10>let me know when they show up on Saturday, anytime

2820
02:19:45.280 --> 02:19:48.959
<v Speaker 10>Saturday and mention their name and you know, show their

2821
02:19:48.959 --> 02:19:52.639
<v Speaker 10>idea or whatever. We'll give them a free VIP NASCAR

2822
02:19:52.760 --> 02:19:54.040
<v Speaker 10>ticket good for this season.

2823
02:19:54.239 --> 02:19:55.159
<v Speaker 2>That is really cool.

2824
02:19:55.159 --> 02:19:57.319
<v Speaker 7>A lot of people don't even know we have NASCAR

2825
02:19:57.440 --> 02:20:00.280
<v Speaker 7>here and it's just unbelievable. Now I do we want

2826
02:20:00.280 --> 02:20:02.719
<v Speaker 7>to tell people this man, it is the coolest brewery.

2827
02:20:02.879 --> 02:20:05.559
<v Speaker 7>Suzanna and I are brewery people. We travel a lot.

2828
02:20:05.639 --> 02:20:08.319
<v Speaker 7>We always hit breweries. This is one of the most

2829
02:20:08.479 --> 02:20:13.159
<v Speaker 7>unique breweries. They're only open on Saturdays, though, please check

2830
02:20:13.200 --> 02:20:16.440
<v Speaker 7>it out. There's other breweries around him too. Put them

2831
02:20:16.440 --> 02:20:18.360
<v Speaker 7>on that list so you can hit two or three

2832
02:20:18.399 --> 02:20:21.879
<v Speaker 7>different breweries. Steve is a great guy. In fact, he

2833
02:20:22.000 --> 02:20:24.239
<v Speaker 7>does our theme songs. That's why we have him on

2834
02:20:24.360 --> 02:20:27.079
<v Speaker 7>all the time. And he did the tree farm. Everybody

2835
02:20:27.079 --> 02:20:31.200
<v Speaker 7>he's heard of that rock and roll, rock and rolled

2836
02:20:31.200 --> 02:20:32.840
<v Speaker 7>out beer, rock and rolled out beer.

2837
02:20:32.879 --> 02:20:33.959
<v Speaker 2>Hopefully we see you there
