I'm doing good, doing good.
Kind of a lazy day, a little bit slow.
It's kind of rainy over here, but I'm feeling pretty good.
About to get into some stuff, man.
I've been so pumped on all these events recently.
I want to go to East Denver next, I think.
I've been collecting Web3 gear, too.
I'm up to like 21 shirts and a hoodie and a pair of socks.
So I can wear Web3 gear constantly outside.
If I'm in public, I'm wearing Web3 gear.
Simple as that.
I'm not going anywhere if I'm not wrapping Web3.
Makes it easy.
Yeah. How are you doing? What's up with you? Anything new? makes it easy not yeah
how you doing what's up with you anything new
any questions or anything
exciting what's good
nothing new just getting
ready for those holidays to be over
oh yeah right
it's wonderful and also
probably the most stressful season of the year
right I mean
a family can be a blessing and a curse at the same time.
I'm much more interested in the family you choose
and the family you're born with at this point.
Like my mom's side is freaking awesome.
And I'll just leave it at that.
Let's see.
We got some other friends in here.
What's up, Alicia?
EAC, Jimmy?
Feel free to go.
Hey, Chickie Buddha.
What up, brothers?
Hey, how's it going?
Good, how are you? Just get out of school? Yeah, well, I got out of school on Friday for holiday
break. Oh, nice. A few weeks this year, Tricky. Wow, nice. That's, yeah. I don't go back till
January 5th. Oh, that's awesome. It'll fly by too, though. Yep. Did they give you, like,
any, like, homework over the season or anything? Or're just like being nice exactly yeah i remember my i always had like an english teacher
that would give me some like reading assignment or something like that it's like yeah i'm gonna
just okay nah bro i'm like yeah i'm gonna fail that i'm not sure i'm passing all my classes dude
yeah that's awesome i haven't i don't think I've ever failed a class.
Even if I just kind of skated by.
And also, my birthday is coming up.
Happy early birthday.
You got anything planned?
You're turning 16, right?
It's going to be 16, yep.
Wow, congrats.
I remember for my 15th birthday, you gifted me a flower NFT.
I still have it.
Hell yeah.
Yeah, I like to give a little reminder.
I think that one is called Stop and Smell.
It reminds you to appreciate the little things in life.
Oh yeah, for sure.
Gratitude and positivity is really the only way
forward everything else is gonna set you back a step right so that's what's up
right yeah cool man I see we got star seed in here as well welcome welcome
feel free to grab that mic well how's it going for you tricky good good man I've
been busy you know so much like stuff IRL i really wish i could find like 20 million dollars and
solve all these people's problems it would be so much easier i need a grant who's out we need a
rich friend real for real though my friends have asked me when i graduate what are some events i
want to attend and one of them i said is NFT NYC for sure.
Yeah, I'm trying to see if 8th Denver is coming up.
And then we got another event.
Are you 16?
Did I hear you say you were 16?
I'm going to be 16, yeah.
Oh my goodness.
And you want to go to New York NFT.
Well, I'm 53 and I want to go to New York NFT too.
Welcome, darling. Thank you. Heck yeah. to go to New York in FT2. Welcome, darling.
Heck yeah.
I mean, New York was crazy.
Honestly, it's absolute madness.
But I got to do more events in New York than any other place because everything was so close.
There was a couple things that were just like out in the boonies or like on another island.
But for the most part, I got 25 events in.
I probably shook like 200 hands uh yeah it was
it was wild wow it was crazy i don't even shake hands or do hugs anymore because of that though
man i keep on getting sick whenever i you can't meet yeah i don't i don't think i'd cope with
that ever since covid shaking hands with 200 people i think would give me the ABGBs. Yeah. Yeah, definitely.
The problem is, like, I mean, I know most of them, right?
Like, I've easily got, like, 100 founders in my phone that I text on a regular basis.
So, you know, when I go to these places, I know everybody.
Like, they're all, they're practically family at this point.
Like, I've been talking to them all for, like, one to five years, you know?
So, yeah, I get in there, give them a hug, and hug and then i'm like fuck i wasn't supposed to do that oh goodness i'm planning on
participating in my school talent show this year yeah you're gonna do uh drums are you gonna do
some i could bring my own kit and yeah it's gonna be a total crap show or as you guys call it excuse
my language a shit show yeah it's gonna that's gonna be good man it's going to be a total crap show. Or as you guys call it, excuse my language, a shit show.
Yeah, that's going to be good, man.
It's going to be good.
So I might just do singing for the talent show this year.
I mean, you know, you do whatever you feel most comfortable with.
But like, you know, who cares if it takes a little bit of energy to bring that kit, man?
Bring the kit and fucking rock them out.
Like a drum solo.
That would be dope as hell.
I mean, I know I would do an instrument before I would do singing,
but that's just because personally I don't think I'm a great singer.
But if you get in the zone for whatever it is, you just got to enjoy it.
That's the main thing is if you enjoy it and you put your energy into it,
people will see that passion and that's all that really matters.
Yeah, definitely.
Persistence and you can clean that shit up.
Are you taking voice lessons and stuff too?
Yeah, I do take voice lessons.
Yeah, that's awesome.
Same building that I get my drum lessons.
Hell yeah.
Let us say that you're a pretty impressive 16 year old.
Yeah, she's the second youngest member of our community.
The one younger is Lyric. I, she's like, she's the second youngest, like, member of our community. You know, like, the only, the one younger is Lyric.
I think she's four.
She'll be six in January.
Oh, she's already five?
Oh, man, yeah, a little tight.
Yeah, I spoke to Harley earlier.
Oh, awesome, awesome.
Well, actually, that just goes to show you how long she's been in the club.
She's been in the club for, like, a third of her life.
I've almost been at Web3 for two years.
Yeah, that's more than most people in this industry, to be honest.
A lot of people...
It's more than me.
That's more than me.
Yeah, definitely. That is crazy for me and i could see like uh you know
you doing an nft project like right before you go to college you know to like fund oh my god
time for college yeah pay for college there's a lot of you know people in here um that would
probably want to support you know you just something really inexpensive, so it's not hard for people to support.
And then people might grab multiples and just make it so it's easy for people.
Let's say Mo's got their hand up.
What's up, Mo?
I had a question for Alicia.
So I know you mentioned playing the drums.
Have you ever played Wipeout on there?
And what are your thoughts on that?
I have not.
I would check that one out.
It's pretty rad solo.
So yeah, look into that one, especially if you're doing drum stuff.
So good luck.
The first time I learned on the drums was Highway to Hell by ACDC.
Oh my goodness.
Oh my goodness.
Yeah, she's got like,
she has the same like taste in
music as like, like I do.
Like she, you would think she was born
in the 80s. It's fucking great.
Um, as someone
who has just, um, like
AC DC's just toured Australia.
my friend went and saw ACDC twice
in two different cities.
So that is pretty, oh, my God, you are actually making me feel better
for the younger generations listening to you, my darling.
Yeah, I'm actually working on my second pop song on the drums.
Yeah, I'm actually working on my second pop song on the drums.
I'm working on Telephone Busy by Five Seconds of Summer on the drums right now.
Oh, that's another Aussie band.
That's awesome.
That's an Aussie band.
Just a beat for the chorus.
It's pretty easy.
That's great.
You know, and the funny thing is, like, you keep on, you'll keep on, like, learning all these things.
And then all of a sudden, something will click and you'll just start putting things together and making your own music. Like, that's this you know and the funny thing is like you keep on you'll keep on like learning all these things and then all of a sudden something will click and you'll just start
putting things together and making your own music like that's this yeah it happens pretty naturally
i feel like once you get dialed in on your instrument that's gonna be awesome yes and
also on the 6th of december i went to another concert nice which. Which one was that?
Spirit Box, Periphery, and Honey Revenge here in Rhode Island at the
Rhine Center.
I haven't seen any of those. That's awesome.
I don't know any of those bands.
I now feel better.
And I got to meet the guitar player
and the singer from Honey Revenge.
The guitar player, Donnie, he said to me that when they perform in Rhode Island,
one day, again, they're going to bring me up on stage for their song Airhead.
That's awesome.
I just remembered that the guitar player uses they, them pronouns just now.
But, yeah.
It's good to be
phenomenal that's awesome yeah i also got to meet casey carlson from the band deadlands randomly
there me and my dad were at the merch booth and i randomly ran into casey carlson from the band
deadlands i'm like what yeah i really appreciate her and her music honestly yeah i mean you know if you keep this
up man i could i could see us doing an event in the future and bringing you up on stage for for
you know be one of the performers we got oh yeah we got 16 artists on that zaocella event i want
to beat it i want to like 25 30 artists together it was it, man. I don't know anyone else that has had an event that big, really.
We started off with three communities, and we ended up with 53.
For the talent show this year, I'm either wanting to sing
Denton's Machine, Burn It Down, or New Divide by Linkin Park.
Oh, my goodness, kid. You've got awesome type of music
Actually I got to see
Lincoln Park in concert
Yeah that was awesome
Yeah I remember that around my birthday
Oh yeah that's right
August 1st 2025
Was my very first
Lincoln Park concert.
That's awesome.
They were so good.
I saw Lincoln Park about 25 years ago.
It's crazy.
There are so many of the really awesome rockers.
They just keep going, man.
We got rockers in the 50s, 70s.
They're still playing it's
crazy you know when i went to when i went to voodoo fest a couple years well shit that was
probably like 10 years ago now uh ozzy was there it was like i mean i don't i don't think ozzy's uh
done a whole lot since then even now i mean obviously he's not doing anything now but
uh that was crazy to see him he did a lot of music during COVID. He actually did a shitload of music during COVID, and it's awesome.
Like, the artist stuck at home was definitely good for creativity.
He was a total legend.
Rest in peace to Ozzy Osbourne.
Yeah, absolutely.
Rest in peace, Ozzy.
There's a lot of artists out there that I really like
For example Youngblood
Who Aussie actually took a liking to
Ever since
The music video for Youngblood's song
The Funeral
I was like wait
For a second
Youngblood was who Did the tribute for him at the Grammys, wasn't he?
Yeah, he's doing his tribute of his song, Changes,
but the lyrics are a bit different, what Youngblood does.
That's all right.
But nonetheless, he's a great performer.
As long as you're honouring the pace that you're using, I think that's fine.
Definitely.
Remix and cover bands are huge anyway.
I don't remember who the first rock band I ever listened to was,
but one of the first was ACDC, definitely.
Along with Motley Crue, Black Sabbath, Metallica.
Not necessarily Anthrax, but...
Seriously, kid, where did you get these music plays from?
I believe it was Slipknot.
Yeah, I was gonna say, it must be your dad.
Well, Slipknot, I found myself, technically.
How old's your dad right now?
I was probably in fourth grade or fifth when I discovered Slipknot I found myself, technically. How old's your dad right now? I was probably in fourth grade or fifth when I discovered Slipknot.
How old is your dad?
So Slipknot a big die out 20 years ago.
I can't say his age, but honestly, my dad, he's not as talkative as me.
So when you meet my dad, he's not as talkative.
Meanwhile, me, I'm like the total opposite.
being a teenager,
you end up,
I was super,
super talkative
when I was like a pre-teen.
Then I got married
for high school
and then allowed again
for college.
So how old is your dad?
I can't say my parents' age.
That's fine.
Can you give me a decade
That's fine either way. 60s. Okay. Okay. For the fine. Can you give me a decade? Or no? That's fine either way.
60s. Okay, okay. For the decade.
Yeah, yeah. So yeah, that's how old
my parents are. That explains the music
taste. Yeah.
Another band that my dad introduced me
to was Led Zeppelin.
And good on you for being
extra cautious about that.
And do you know what? One of the better
best drummers in the world,
one of the very best drummers ever was John Bonham.
So if you want a drum technique with Led Zeppelin, oh my goodness.
And then for grunge, my dad introduced me to bands like Alice in Chains,
Nirvana, and Pearl Jam.
Well, technically Pearl Jam. Well, technically, I think Pearl Jam,
one of my middle school gym teachers introduced me to, actually.
But Pearl Jam is a great band.
Yeah, legends.
Recently, one of the most recent bands I heard was In This Moment.
So my bus driver for the afternoonsons Jerry, he knows a lot of metal music
one of the bands he introduced me to was in this moment
and their cover we will rock you with taylor momson and lizzie hale is phenomenal. I love it
At this point you know more about like more about music and different bands than I do.
I like know rhythms and melodies.
I'm just happy.
I'm just listening to it just in awe.
I'm totally like, I'm horrible with names.
You know what I mean?
Like, I don't remember names.
I don't remember songs.
And for those of you that don't know who Lizzie Hale and Taylor Monson are,
Taylor Monson sings for the Pretty Reckless, known for that song.
Oh, Lord, heaven knows
we belong way down below.
That song?
The Pretty Reckless is known for that song.
Yeah, I know that song.
You can sing, too.
She sings for Hailstorm.
Hence the word Hail in her last name.
She sings for Hailstorm.
Her band is phenomenal as well.
My favorite song
has to be Amidst of Misery
from them.
Phenomenal.
Another one my dad got me to
was Alice Cooper.
My dad got me to Alice Cooper.
He introduced you to Alice?
The music, not the actual Alice Cooper. He introduced you to Alice? Like, the music, not the actual Alice.
Yeah, the music.
Like, the guy that's known for that song,
You're poison running through my veins,
You're poison.
From the 80s.
From, like, 1989, that song.
Yeah, I'm familiar with it.
I remember it the first time.
I actually collect CDs too. I have a whole bunch in my collection. I found a bunch of CDs recently and I was like, I don't even have a CD player anymore.
It's cute.
An example of an album I have on CD is Pumped by Aerosmith.
I love that one.
Lost Highway by Bon Jovi.
I have The Silver Scream by Ice Nine Kills.
Back in Black,
ACDC, American Idiot
by Green Day, that kind of stuff.
Yeah, I like that. I like all the Green Day.
I remember asking for a Green Day
at a middle school dance
or something like that, and they were just like, what?
It was like, I'm dancing.
One of my favorite pop-punk bands, All Time Low, from the 2000s,
those guys can be dorks sometimes in the funny videos I've seen of them.
Like, for example, one time, this was probably Wembley Stadium,
probably Wembley Stadium this video I saw of them right so the guitar player or
this video I saw of them, right?
yeah the guitarist Jack Bearcat he goes and says about the drummer Ryan Dawson
Ryan wanted to be on the floor or whatever so he did he decided to put
Ryan as high as possible Alex the singer the singer, goes, that's too high. Like, what's going
on here? This is insane.
You're 16 feet off the ground
right now. Tommy Lee up there.
I was bursting out
of laughter. Oh, my
God, it was hysterical.
Ryan Dawson's face.
Oh, my God, it was hysterical.
How many concerts have you been to at this point, Alicia?
Oh, awesome.
My first was Five Seconds of Summer.
We got some more friends in the house.
Let's see what's up.
We got I-Ry in the house.
Appreciate you coming through.
What's up, Joe Mama, Louie, Jimmy, Lightning.
Always good to see you, Mo. I-Ry! Feel free to grab that co-host. But what's up, Joe Mama? Louie? Jimmy? Lightning? Oh, yeah. Always good to see you, Moe.
Feel free to grab that co-host. But what's up, Iry?
What's up, guys? How's it going? It's been a while.
Hey, girl.
Hey, girl. How you doing?

If you guys like to go to concerts or bars, you've got to check out.
I'm an Amazon affiliate, so whenever I find a really good product that I like,
I've been sharing it with people.
Or if you find something that you want to get a discount on, just let me know.
That's not a guess, Tricky. You're going to recommend loop earplugs yep that's i'm gonna accrement you know it you know it uh because these things are so amazing dude seriously like if you if you want
to have uh the ability to just talk to your friends instead of yelling over music you and
a friend get these loops and you can literally just talk at a normal volume and it cuts out all the noise. So, you know, people can hear you.
Funny enough, Chicky, at the concert, I saw somebody with those.
Yeah, they're getting more popular.
I'm trying to, like, get them out there because if everyone else gets them, then I won't have to yell.
Right now, like, if I have them, then the other people don't have to yell.
But I don't want to have to yell.
I'm tired of doing that
but yeah so good to see you uh ira your uh your book for for your birthday let's go
you're going to go down to the same place south beach or what would you think yeah actually we
are going to that same place um in south beach right next to the beach so it should be nice we are um ray is taking care of it as we
speak and it's going to be my uh my 56th birthday wow that's unbelievable yeah i don't take yeah
for 50 at all that's great um well i'm very young at heart. Yeah. Well, I mean,
you, and that's the thing is you, you keep that attitude young. You, you stay young. It's just,
that's what it is. Have you, if you're going there for like the nightlife and everything too,
that's like a good spot. Obviously it's expensive, but it's going to have more activity as far as
like nightlife goes and restaurants. But there's a, if you want beach, like soft sand beach, check out Port St. Lucie.
No, no, no.
We've been to St. Pete and I loved it.
It was beautiful.
The sand there is just so amazing.
I can't get over it.
It is amazing. We actually went there and stayed for a few days with some friends of ours who his birthday is in November. So he always goes to Florida for his birthday. And we stayed out there and we, we always go for walks in the morning And we stumbled upon This harp player
And it was so beautiful
I mean it was the sun was rising
And there's this guy playing a harp
Like a miniature harp?
Or like a full
A full on harp
That's not a typical thing you see people lugging around
That's crazy, that's awesome
Well he lived right on the beach.
recorded him. It was really
Those can't be like...
You can find someone playing the harp.
It would feel like you found magic.
Yeah, I did feel like
I had found magic
It was really
Just really special
Plus like Florida is a special place
For my boyfriend and I
Like we're moving in
Pretty soon we're going to be moving down there
And we'll be staying
Up here in Massachusettsachusetts in the summertime but um we'll spend
all of our the rest of our time down there i think so we're looking around we'll be looking around
um this trip too on my birthday so we might we might go for three weeks again i don't know we'll see that's crazy that's
awesome yeah that's great yeah yeah so we'll have to we'll have to get in touch with you tricky
yeah because we'll be um we're gonna go to miami for a week and we're gonna go to um
cape canaveral but we'll always when we're in Cape Canaveral,
we like to travel away from there.
And so maybe we'll see you, that'd be nice.
Well then you don't have to bring as much.
I'm always, I'm always here for it.
Very cool.
Well, that is super cool.
It's always good to have like a vacation plan.
You just like the time flies by. It's always good to have something to look forward to. So that's awesome.
Yeah. You know what? I'm also going to New Hampshire with my best friend in two weeks. So we're just going to spend like five days in New Hampshire on this ski slope on a lake.
I'm sure on this ski slope on a lake.
So wait, is it, I mean, it's going to have snow on it right now.
It's pretty, they haven't been getting all the snow this, like recently this year though.
And I've noticed like Colorado has only had like three good snow drops, like snowfalls.
And they're have like, they have a fire right now.
Oh, what is going on?
There's a fire?
I didn't hear that.
Northeast of Denver, they got a fire.
It's just crazy having fires in the winter and barely any snow.
Because I've been talking about moving there.
It's so dry there.
Yeah, super dry.
Wow, you've got fires.
That's a bushfire.
We're coming into summer here.
And it's been very, very, very wet for the last about six weeks.
And now it's drying off.
So come peak of summer in about four weeks, six weeks time, everything's going to be dry.
So Australia is going to burn, at least on the East Coast.
And it's scary.
It's really scary.
We're on the opposite like hemispheres, though.
So, like, the fact that it's getting warm for you and we're already on fire is, like, that's not good.
That's really โ€“ that doesn't make sense to my brain or it shouldn't make sense to anyone's brain.
I mean, it's crazy that California actually has a fire season, but it's just become year-round now.
It's ridiculous. We've had fire season, but it's just become year-round now. It's ridiculous.
We've had fire season ever since I can remember.
That's just part of the environment.
But, yeah, it's really scary.
We haven't had conditions like this here in Australia
since we had the Black Summer bushfires,
which were probably
I think 10 years ago so and they were the fires that everyone heard about all over the
world so it's it's pretty scary this summer.
What do you have like a typical like loss of life and stuff too like how bad are they
I mean what kind of do you do you know like the black the black saturday fire killed
lots of people lots of houses like i can't remember i think it was it was in the hundreds
um and it was horrific it even like you got one about um one of the very respected news people
news readers he got killed in that fire. So it was pretty intense.
And this was before we had, like, the warnings, like SMS warnings to tell people to leave
and things like that.
But that's changed since then.
There is loss of life every summer, every summer.
It's just trying to contain that loss of life and
make sure if you are in an area where you have got where it's like you're not
in the middle of a city and you've got bush you need to make sure you maintain
your property yeah and I'm worried about going to any place with fire fires not
very I'm really bad with tolerating heat,
so I definitely don't want to be around fire.
But I really want to move to some place where it's got more legal weed,
better options for food.
With all these food allergies,
there's no good food really anywhere.
I have a couple restaurants in Florida
that I can go to,
but when I visited Denver,
their food options were amazing.
I would like here,
I would go to like a vegan gluten-free dairy,
like a bakery and I'll buy one of everything that I can eat.
Like literally.
And when I tried that in Denver and I ended up with like 50 pastries that
and I was just like,
I was just eating pastries the whole time.
I was like,
all right,
maybe I can't do that here.
But, but yeah, I, I really love that.
You wouldn't be able to do that in Melbourne, darling.
I'd be able to take you everywhere for gluten-free, dairy-free, everything-free.
They have it.
That's awesome.
That's definitely one of those spots I got to go visit.
I need to do some serious traveling this next couple of years just to try to figure out
where I want to live. Florida's too hot
and now I can't really
afford to live where I'm at,
which is good because it's got
property value,
equity or whatever,
but it sucks to have to move.
It's a lot of work moving.
one of the hardest things you'll ever do and it's the
biggest test on any relationship you'll ever be in is to move house right yeah i've been with my
wife for about 24 years coming on 25 years now so uh we've been through a couple moves a couple
yeah i lived in her house with her family for a little bit.
Then we went to,
we got a condo for college and now we're in our first home.
Are you childhood sweethearts?
That's so cute.
It's kind of weird,
you don't,
you don't hear about that very much anymore,
we got together when she was 16 and I was 17.
So how cute. That's gorgeous.
It's been a minute.
It's funny.
But yeah, it's
amazing to
change with someone at the same time.
Also, I went through such a terrible
bit of 10 years.
It's amazing she's still with me.
I don't know.
It's crazy to have to deal with
all that but she was a trooper and now I'm starting to get a little bit more you know together and
healthy and stuff like that but it was pretty bad for a while there um lots of when you were going
through all that health battle it would have been so good to have someone by your side especially
when you couldn't get adopted to tell you no what you what you already knew yeah it was crazy going through all that and then for me to find the test to get my diagnosis
in the end like the doctors didn't help me I basically figured it out you found it yourself
yeah that doesn't surprise me celiac you you've got Crohn's haven't you yeah it's crones disease yeah so i tell people
that it should be like celiac safe i had the i got so angry at a whole restaurant recently
i literally yelled at every employee and then yelled at the manager and basically so they have
a whole like well you are the very reason that people that people came like came up with food
allergy requests.
What you were saying isn't just something to annoy the chef.
It's something that could actually really affect your health.
They had a buffet, basically an open line on the other side of glass.
So you could come through and pick out which ingredients you want.
And I asked what was safe.
And the first guy was like, I think this is safe. And safe and i was like well you need to make sure it's safe so they asked another
employee and i was like are you they're like yeah it should be safe and i was like well should be
or it is and like i like because it's serious and so like all right well i'll get the manager
and manager comes over like yeah yeah oh you should be able to get any of these things i was
like all right well i'll take a chicken blah blah, blah, blah. And he's like, starts, he gets ready to prepare it. And I go, no, no, no, you know, you lose. Like,
stop, stop it. I saw that guy grab croutons and then grab the chicken with the same gloves. So
it doesn't matter if you change gloves, you've already crossed contaminated this entire line.
If I had celiac, you would have actually killed me. So congratulations. you could have killed someone today the manager's like oh shit thank you
for telling me like yeah thank god it's not so yeah if you're working in food service it really
actually bubbles my brain that you don't actually get taught this stuff but like there's no there's
no like schooling for like health the health safety. Like, if you're going to be in that industry, you should know that shit.
If you don't know what celiac is and you're a cook or a waiter, I mean, you're just not good at your job.
That's terrible.
I'm a cook, so, yeah.
I don't understand how you could actually be in food service and not know that.
But, yeah, especially for the manager.
Yeah, that blew my mind, too, when the manager was like being โ€“
when I'm educated in the manager, you've got a problem.
I would love to be like a health inspector, you know,
and just go around and just shut down every single fucking restaurant in Florida.
It'd be brutal, but also a funny ass job.
Like, I want, I don't want to be sick anymore.
You want to make sure you've got somewhere where you can hide, I reckon, in Florida.
I don't think there's been certain groupings that would like to have their restaurant shut down.
Right. Yeah. Well. there's been certain groupings that would like to have their restaurants shut down. Right?
move. It's just easier to move at this
what have you been getting
into? I know you're planning for your birthday,
but how's the painting been going? I haven't really talked to you much about, Irai, what have you been getting into? I know you're planning for your birthday, but how's the painting been going?
I haven't really talked to you much about, you know, your craft and what you've been up to.
Yeah, you know what?
I got two museum shows coming up.
I'm going to be at the Attleboro Art Museum for an invitational show.
So, that was
Really exciting that I got invited to that
To a show at the Newport
Art Museum and I got into
That so I'm starting off
The year with two
Museum shows I'm psyched
That's epic hell yeah
Very cool.
That is so awesome.
I feel like most of the stuff that I do is just,
it is what it is.
It's just kind of normal to me.
But I've been kind of like blown away recently.
I've been making all these animations,
and people keep calling me an artist.
I'm like, I mean, I kind of, but not,
like I don't consider myself necessarily
an artist but these these graphics have been coming like coming along pretty well these
animations and i've been having a lot of fun with it i posted a bunch of them up top in the jumbo
i got the first one there is all my logos just being like messed around so um because we had
this logo back in zaocella that it like unraveled and bannered out and then spun around and went back into itself.
And we had like a little augmented reality situation for all the sponsors.
So it would do that.
So I'm thinking like any of these animations could easily be part of
augmented reality.
I'd seen that one.
I mean, you push the girl, the girl goes overboard.
That's really cool.
So yeah, all of these have been a lot of fun.
But if you look over
at the one in the middle, there's
one with me and my wife
on the back of the cruise ship.
You guys, you have to...
that one. That is really cool.
I don't know. I must have been
doing something when you sent that to me because I didn't really respond, I don that one. That is really cool. I don't know. I must have been doing something when you sent that to me.
Because I didn't really respond, I don't think.
But that was really cool.
Just throw it overboard.
So hilarious.
There was another one, too, that I was going to post this one for Christmas.
And she's like, no, I don't want to be in that post.
And I was like, well, all right just I'll just remove you with AI so I removed her and I replaced her with
like two models with one on each side one of them's barely wearing anything it was terrible
and I did like a bunch of different versions like one of them was like a really terrible
triple kiss it was hilarious I just messed around with all the prompts.
I'll put one in the comments. That's definitely art. That is totally art.
Yeah. I think anything,
I think anytime you're creating and you're doing something, it can be, even it can even be what, what in cooking,
it can be in doing anything to express yourself,
but actually to be exhibited, that is that that is that is
pretty cool and that is something i've never done i haven't had the guts to do
yeah so props to you that is beautiful having museum shows that's a wonderful way to start 2026.
show so it's a wonderful way to start 2026. Thank you so much yeah Tricky I got to check
those out a little bit more I'll give you some I'll give you some pointers
um I'm so excited and then I've got another show at one of the galleries that I belong to
um that's coming up too in February So um you know what I really
Want to do this year
I usually it actually not
Usually it's only been two years
That I've been doing this but I
Make a list of goals
That I want to achieve
For the year and
I don't make them too out
Of reach but I make them, you know, attainable. Um, and I look
at the list and make sure that I'm, you know, achieving those things. And I made a really big
list last year. This, I mean, this, this past year, 2025, I made a big list like 14 things and i did eight of them so that was pretty
good and this year i'm going to do the same thing and what i really want to do is i want to do a
residency somewhere and there's a residency um at the shenandoah national park in virginia
at the Shenandoah National Park in Virginia that I'm looking into.
So I'm going to look into that.
I have to apply by February.
Ah, there's been residents at a national park.
Oh, my God.
That would be so, so, oh, my God.
You actually were sponsored to be there to create.
That would be be so so cool
yeah so we'll see that's gonna be on my goals list for sure to get a residency
if it's not that one it'll be another one you will i'm gonna make it happen
well the northwest is like very artist friendly too. So yeah. Yeah.
Maybe it'd be great if you could get one like at Rocky Mountain National Park and then go to East Denver like at the same time.
That would be sick.
But it's coming up. Oh, that is.
It's like February or something like that.
When East Denver is in February?
I think like the 17th, something like that, like middle of February.
It's coming up real soon i wanted
to go to it but i don't know i don't think it's gonna be possible um well my goal for 2026 is to
actually get to a an event which means leaving australia and traveling a very long way so i'm
gonna need a shitload of money um yeah i mean and whatever you want to do definitely tap in because
there's so many different groups of people that got to get together. I'm trying to bring all the groups like together in one. If, if that would happen every time, it'd be so much more epic. Like, uh, Zouchella, for example, if we would have had like all three of our main groups get together in one giant house, that would have been sick.
that would have been sick
because that way you don't have to travel to get to your friends
and the more people you have in one
location the more chances you have
of people joining you instead of you having to go out
absolutely
that the party can come to you
that was a good time
we had fun there
look up top guys
I edited my wife out on Tuesday
they're fucking hilarious
it looks way edited my wife out and used AI. They're fucking hilarious, bro.
It looks way too real.
It's hilarious.
I can't stop laughing when I make some of these AIs.
Isn't that ridiculous?
Death fight, no be honest.
All my holders and subscribers can get an animation if they want.
All they got to do is send me like an image or some traits or something like that.
I can make the image and the animation or you can give me an image to animate,
which probably what I recommend is to give me an image to animate because it gives me lot more to start with you know I can do it either way but yeah it'll be more personalized
to you if you give me the image to start with I think I can make these prompts
pretty specific and develop most of the things I want to with these like nine
paragraph ten paragraph prompts but yeah if you guys want one,
I know Iry, you're definitely allowed to claim one.
Jimmy, you definitely can claim one.
But yeah, anyone who's also a subscriber can get one as well.
Yeah, these are just, they're too funny.
I really like the recent DeFi Space Donkey ones that have been just like huge prompts.
But I don't know.
I've got to figure out how to.
I'll send you a picture of me and Ray.
You have to do something.
With that.
You could give me some.
If you want to give me any kind of like prompt or trait or anything you want me to kind of include, you know, like a style or anything.
I could make it that way include you know like a style or anything uh i could make it that way you know
it's once you know like the styles and like film um especially like the film lingo you can like
direct the camera you can change the camera angle the the style of shooting and stuff like that
uh yeah i like i have all low camera angles see I have this one that was really elaborate where it zoomed out and
I mean it was a it started off just like literally a picture of a hound from the deads
So it was very simple to start with
But in the end it's got like mountains and it zooms out real good to show northern lights and this whole snowy patch
So let me find that real quick.
But if you guys want to share up anything up top, we can all blow it up too.
So feel free to post up there.
And yeah, I got lots of architecture shots too from Art Basel.
I think these are...
I have so many pictures of my phone though.
It takes... It could take a minute to find stuff sometimes.
I got to go through and just delete all the ones that are like duplicates or reject AI things.
I could post them once, and then that's all I really need to do, right?
I've got so many images in my phone.
It's ridiculous.
Trying to find something is just just you scroll scroll scroll scroll
scroll could definitely take a minute um all right i'm actually gonna have to jump out of here
because i've got to go and chat with the wizard um but um my first space this morning i actually
spoke to you before i said i had a coffee so it is it is wonderful to be here and thank you for
letting me on stage yeah anytime it's always good to see you um feel free to come in and join us
whenever always you know Monday Wednesday I will be back I'll be here oh here I found it uh I'm
gonna put this up top this is the the one that has like a a good zoom to it I really like the
zoom so I'll put this up in the Jumbotron.
I'll have a look at that before I go.
Yeah, yes.
I haven't been able to post anything on Jumbotrons for the last, like, two weeks.
Ever since I fucked around with this X.
You have an iPhone?
No, Samsung.
Well, when you pushed the little up arrow, I've noticed for me anyway, it's all the
way to the right. It used to be the first like thing on the left, but now you have to scroll
all the way to the right. Yeah, past the past everything. I hate it when they chase it around.
It just is. Yeah, so go all the way to the right. You'll have like a very right. You have like
offline. Then you have make videos grok post video
This is going right to left community and then
The top of the space the microphone symbol
So there I posted it up top so you can see it
But yeah, that's uh, this is a hound
So it starts off like basically with the image that you're seeing and then
Completely is different
Yeah, I had definitely having fun with those ones
Phone call
Hey, welcome welcome Falco hope you're all doing good
Feel free to grab Mike and come on up. See I'm not following you, so I'll give you a follow.
Does someone know Falco 5?
Hang on a second.
I'm watching.
Oh, that was so cool.
I love the dog.
I definitely am into these animations.
And they're only six seconds long, but this is I'm only using free tools right now And I bet the trick with it is that you go and I ask one AI
To write a prompt to give to grok to make an animation, right?
And then I describe all the features that I want
And it creates the prompt so that way it communicates all my ideas
properly for the animation
and that's how I've ended up with these really elaborate prompts and I go back
through maybe take a couple things out kind of add a couple things in yeah and
it really it's really cool it's really really in-depth and it seems you're
writing like I felt it was good was good. It was very good.
All right, my darling, I have to jump out of here
because I need to caffeinate before I hit Joe's face
and have a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful day, night,
whatever it is, wherever you are.
You two, I'll see you in the next one.
Tag me in any space and I'll try to show up.
I shall do so. See you right there. Bye-bye.
Good to see you too, Jimmy. I see you down there rocking that DeFi space donkey. Let's go.
I've been doing lots of animations with everyone else's NFTs, but I got to do more with the donkeys now that I kind of got it dialed in better.
Because I want to make some of the origin stories into clips. And then really, as long as I, if I keep the images or the, sorry, the
animations kind of short to like six seconds, I can do them back to back to back if I make them,
you know, do some kind of a transition. And then technically I can make it, you know, as long as
I just do it in six second clips, I could make a whole you know, as long as I just do it in six second
clips, I could make a whole little video, like a 15 minute video. It would take a bunch of clips,
obviously, but if I could make a full story or a full, you know, short story anyway into an animation,
like at least two, three minutes long, I think that would be good. I think more than three minutes,
nobody's going to really watch it anyway.
Most people, it's like 15 seconds, and then they're like, okay,
if you don't catch them in the first 15 seconds, they're not going to be hooked.
But maybe I can do something crazy enough in the first 15 seconds that they actually watch the whole two minutes or three minutes.
That'd be good.
Hey, Tricky, I don't know how to post up top anymore.
Has it changed? Yeah, that's what I'm saying is you got to go.
So when you push the up arrow, it used to be on the left, but now it's all the way to the right, like five from the end or four.
Yeah. Yeah. So just scroll, push the up arrow, go all the way to the right.
You'll see it once you get past like messages and all that, like the other options.
It's crazy. It's like unless you share everywhere else and then it's just like oh by the way would you like to put
it up top in the jumbo that should be the first option you know it was yeah there but yeah so do
you see it no i don't it just gives me oh it has the share yes push the share up and then you scroll
on the bottom you scroll all the way to the right and you push the share up, and then you scroll on the bottom.
You scroll all the way to the right, and you should see the little microphone,
and it says the name of the space.
Goals, DeFi, Space, Donkeys.
You should see it there.
I mean, I don't think Android's that much different when it comes to this,
but I haven't looked at it on Android yet, to be honest.
Yeah, it doesn't have the option.
Yeah, okay. Well well I'll try to
figure out where it is you probably ask rock where it is too and cry oh yeah
that's a good idea right just like rock where I'll ask it see a crack how do you
All right, how do you post up top in a space on an Android phone?
Let's see what grok says grok usually responds pretty quick um you know you can check and see
who's like your biggest supporters on x um i've got my biggest supporters are like some of the
ais because i i'll write a post and then i'll tag an AI and they almost always, you know, come
back and respond. So sometimes I'll get both AIs talking to each other and get like, you know,
20, 30,000 views off of that just because like the AIs are going back and forth and people are
kind of checking back because they keep on getting tagged every time the AI says something.
It's pretty funny. Let's see.
I'm going to take that. I'm going to take this
other one down. The triple kiss
instead looks so bad.
funny, though.
I was like, it was your idea. You told me
you wanted it to be edited out. She's like,
that's not really right.
Good shit, though.
Yeah, definitely send me a picture
of you and Ray, you know?
I see it's about the season
for Christmas, too, so maybe I'll make a Christmas
animation, and
You know what? You should make him
as a surfing Santa.
No, yeah. Easy.
Easily done.
Maybe surfing Santa, maybe holding you on the surfboard while you're smoking a bonk.
Yeah, that would be great.
That would be great.
I'll do it. I'll do a couple.
See how much fun I can have with it.
Don't make me Mrsrs claus though make
me an elf yeah well yeah yeah or something yeah yeah no that would be funny though to make you
to make you a tiny elf though it'd also be hilarious like on the front of the surfboard
yeah like how people have like they're going to take their pets out to go surfing you know right hanging on to the front that's funny i've seen i've seen one cat and i've seen a bunch of dogs
doing that the cat though you know the cat's holding on for dear life it doesn't want to go
in the water right it'd be funny though if you had it if you have a kitten and you introduce it
to the water like at an early age, they won't be afraid of it.
It's all about getting them acclimated early so they don't freak out later.
My cousin, or no, yeah, cousin-in-law, he raised these kittens, and he plays with them like dogs.
And now they're still like that.
They like to be kind of roughhoused and stuff like that like you know how you pat a dog on the back
You can't do that to a cat
Typically right it would freak out, but he like I hope he'll like wrestle with them and stuff
I'm just like any other cat would tear you apart, right?
And this cat just like loves it just loves the attention. It's funny. Hey, what up King?
Yeah, got King boo boo in here feel free to go grab a mic come on up
Lightning Jimmy
Yeah, put if you want to put any images down there in the comments to maybe I you know
I'll do some animations here in a second just for funds
And I see I rise got some things down here.
I like this tiger. I'm going to post that up top
and then let people
share it out.
Anything else you want to post up top if you can't get
it, I-Ride, just let me know. I'll put
it up there for you. Yeah, that's
the piece that I'm going to be showing at
the Newport Art Museum.
Hell yeah. Newport. Swanky.
Nice. Yeah. I like. Swanky. Nice.
I like your pin tweets good too.
I'll put that up top.
It's always good to have a nice solid pin tweet
with the maximum letters
and a nice video
or a picture.
You know the way that it works is
really well
performing text is
first right or is the last and then if you add an image like a picture it bumps it above
all the text and if you add a video it bumps you above all the photos. So yeah that's the
main thing is try to do a little video and then just describe yourself and your current
goal whatever you're working on at that time that you want people to engage with.
So you got a little call to action.
That's the main thing to do in order to stay ahead of the curve a little bit, make people look at your stuff.
You know what?
With that post that I pinned, I found all these people that I didn't know yet.
So I friended all of them and now I'm friends with all of them.
There's a lot of communities that are like artist communities.
If you go to those communities,
you don't even have to join them in order to follow some of them.
So what I would do is like go to, you know,
a painting for whatever chain, it doesn't even matter.
Anything that involves like painting or collage
or you can put in the different types of art
that you're making.
And then go to the members
and follow all the large blue check
or gold check accounts that are in those groups.
And if you do it on the phone,
you can select their profile and follow them
and it'll be like,
here's all the accounts that work well with them
and you can follow all of those people as as well the other trick i do is like
find someone who's like got the similar content to you and their friends you can follow all their
friends and probably get them to follow you back too because that's you know you kind of already
know what they like you know yeah yeah that's good advice. For sure.
You know what?
I have been at a standstill with my followers for a while, but I haven't been very active.
So I think that's probably why.
I've just been, you know, I haven't been active.
I've just been, well, I've been posting a lot of, I do post a lot, but I haven't been like in spaces a lot.
And I find that that really gets you to meet people.
It puts you in front of more people.
And it's good to like, to post as a reply,
getting replies is how you get paid out here, right? So finding content that's similar to you,
and then saying, I really like what you did, like, I kind of did that trick on this image. But I like
how you did it, you know what I mean? Like, it's a compliment, but also kind of highlighting
something that you've done. And that's,'s a really good way to network and then share your stuff
but not seem like spammy with it, right?
Yeah, that's the important thing.
I mean, everyone changed their style up completely
in order to get monetized, right?
Trying to go for impressions.
A lot of people just played it dirty.
We just did the stupid shit in order to get there.
But that really kind of sacrificed their content on each one of those pages that you did it with.
So then you have to get back into the form of like making content again and not just being like a
impressions reply guy. But there's definitely a combination of the two that makes a sweet spot.
You just got to figure out which is your like what's your actual target
market right like if you're a painter and then you just like a bunch of football stuff all of a
sudden or sports stuff that has nothing to do with it you'll probably like lose some of your followers
just because that's they're not interested in that content right but that's also why i have multiple
you know accounts i can always think okay this, where would this go the best?
Calls for an account.
Cause they wanted me to take a loan out for like between 40 and $80,000.
I do want to,
but I've told them not to contact me multiple times.
I've unsubscribed.
They're still hitting me up like four times a day.
I blocked all their numbers.
They keep calling from another number. It's ridiculous.
It's crazy.
Yeah. I do need to get
a loan. I want to fix this house up
and then get the hell out of here. I feel like
if I did a little remodel, I could probably get
like $470, maybe
even like $500 for this house,
which would be sick.
Because I only owe like $70.
So that would be a nice little chunk of change hopefully I could go get a get a house out in the middle of the boonies but yeah I gotta look at
I gotta look at Denver and I gotta look at Colorado again because if everything just burnt I don't
want to live in an area that gets like fires all the time but if an area's just been burnt to death
right it might be safer because they've just got rid
of all the underbrush, you know?
Now I can, as long as you get enough space
where you can put some nice, you know, big gaps
of a valley between you and the tree line,
you won't have to worry about the fires as much.
I've seen them jump across the highway though in Florida,
so you gotta have like a football field
between you and the tree line.
But if you could do a football field in all directions, you would be totally safe.
But what is that? You'd be like four acres at least.
Right? Maybe more.
But definitely if anyone
is interested in this tee, I did bring up the tricky tees here.
That profile. So you can definitely check that out if you need any interested in this this tea I did bring up the tricky teas here that profile so
you can definitely check that out if you need any sleep or hangover recovery
energy these these teas have been really clutch a lot of people are really
liking the sleep one a little bit more than anything else because it's so much
more noticeable when you get good sleep you know hey what's up mama bear mama bear has some great spaces every night at seven
o'clock she's seven to eight and yeah got there's a new project coming out too i've got it i got to
get into some of these things i keep on i keep on getting busy and then forgetting to do stuff and
mama bear's got a whole project coming out. She's got people on the nice list.
And most of these people here I would recommend.
Definitely you, Ira.
I think Jimmy's already got his.
But Ira, definitely get in touch with Mama Bear.
I would love to recommend you or refer you for that project. Because, yeah, good people.
And welcome, Kyle, as well.
I see Kyle down there. Don't think i know you kyle so i'll
give you a follow you got it looks like you got a relatively new account let's see we got any of
the same followers i guess we both know scott not scott i guess i'll give you a follow though
hell yeah uh see what what else was i getting into um i want to do east denver i want
to do there's one coming up in maine as well uh october of next year so we got a long time to
plan that one and uh yeah i don't know we'll see how many more people we want to get it's more it's
mainly going to be organized as a local event trying to get like web 2 people involved
But you know in just the locals to get more into web 3, but you know when you bring me into anything
I'm gonna try to bring the whole crew over
That's what they tried to do last time they had three and three communities and I was like
Let me try to get some you know a couple more And then like we had eight months so over eight months, you know, we ended up with I write painting live and
Another 50 on top of that communities. I think we highlighted like a hundred different artists
picked 30 that were like prime winners of some stuff and then what 16 artists and
What else do we have?
It was so packed, just having the normal founders and their teams.
That was enough to make the whole room just completely bump in.
And then we knew everybody, right?
And then our thing was so big, we were just attracting attention from the locals.
Did you see the line outside Ia like during that event like it
was crazy i don't know if you were like inside most of the time or if you went out there i walked
past the security multiple times and i was just like i am not waiting in that 60 person line like
we rented this mother let me oh yeah we saw the line it we when we were leaving actually um it was so funny because we had all our gear and
everything and people thought we were homeless because we were like toting around all this stuff
you're all burnt and crisp and right yeah oh my god it was so funny we were laughing because they
were like do you want to sit one girl was like to said to Ray, do you want a sandwich?
Like, can I have a blunt?
It's so funny. Yeah, that's the thing is when you got like everyone down there is carrying like their bags because it's a tourist area.
I don't understand why they would why that's the-to. You know what I mean? If it was North Palm Beach or out west, I could understand that.
But you don't have homeless people bringing their luggage on South Beach.
It's the most expensive place to be in Florida.
It's not a place for homeless people to hang out at all.
That would be absolutely nuts.
I'm going to post something up top from Mama Bear.
Let's see.
Mama is awesome.
She's subscribing to me as well.
And this is her little, her gifts for the nice and the naughty list.
I'm going to put that up top.
There you go.
Yeah, I'm curious with this, what Grok's going to say.
Let's see.
Did Grok respond down there in the comments to our question? Oh, Grok. How do you? Let's see what Grok's going to say. Let's see. Did Grok respond down there in the comments to our question?
Let's see.
It looks like there's a response.
There's something down there.
Let's see.
To pin a post on the top of an X space on Android as the host or speaker, start or join the space, obviously.
Start or join the space, obviously.
Find the post you want to pin.
Find the post you want to pin.
Tap the share icon, arrow up on the post,
and select pin to your space from the options.
So it should be over there somewhere.
You're going to look for the little microphone icon
that has the title space in there.
So it's the same thing as what I told you,
but didn't really have anything more specific. Thanks Croc. Yeah, I need to get an Android phone
just so I can tell people the tricks. Hopefully we get someone here that just
wants me to help their account grow and they'll buy me a phone. I told a couple
of different you know holders or members of the club that you know hey you want
me to want me to put your account into spaces and grow it?
Just give me a phone, you know.
That way I can keep it in those places.
But I've done that for at least two or three people.
I'm only a delegate of like, what, eight accounts right now.
It's kind of getting easy for me.
Six of my own, Two of someone else's.
Come on, King Boo Boo.
What you up to?
I see you down there.
Feel free to jump up.
Tell me what you got going on.
Let's see.
He's got Glitchcraft Gaming Pass.
I'm going to put that up top for him.
We can all check that out.
I'm going to make sure I share everyone's stuff. It's in this space hanging out with us
Get mama's up there. I rise up there
See Jimmy do you have a pin post you're always supporting everybody else
I feel like you wouldn't have a pin post necessarily, right? Oh, you do have a pin post good. Let's go. Oh, we're shiny. Hell yeah
I like I really like her energy
It's amazing how she's coming to the space and she's got a lot of support because of that positivity man shows you that positivity goes a long way
Yeah, a little persistence and positivity for the win
That's what's up
Let's see there was another thing I was gonna do I've been listening to a lot of Web3 music recently.
It's so funny that I'm getting little intros or cameos in a couple different songs.
I'm wondering what's going to be next, you know?
I should do it.
I have a thing for all the subscribers, too, if you want to get a copy of Racks.
That's the track that I'm in with Mr. Darius and Aude Kofil.
I've got that for all the subscribers.
If any of the subscribers want one, just send me a DM and a Solana address.
I'll hook you up.
Hell yeah.
Anything else you want to share with us, Irai?
What else you got going on?
You got your birthday coming up.
You've got a couple different museums you're going to
be participating in.
Have you done any collaborations with any other artist or have you tried teaming up
with anyone to talk about each other's stuff and spaces?
At this point you've got so much traction, IRL and everything, you pretty much just, you know, you're not really, you don't
have to rely on Twitter, right? Like you can, you can just go to all these different states and
locally and you've got enough recognition now that you can talk, you know, your resume is looking
good now at this point, right? You've done so much in the last year. Yeah, my resume is really
top notch, I gotta say. It's looking good. And i just got an email from the newport art museum
and they listed all of the artists that were participating in the event and my name it wasn't
alphabetical and my name is right up at the top so i was like that's pretty nice you know yeah awesome it's always good
when you get that when that you know that positioning um it's so funny how back in the day
people were always just like naming their project or their business whatever something with an a
um or like a a a uh whatever and that way you'd be like in the front of the
phone book.
Now it doesn't matter as much
but sometimes that stuff can still get you positioned
well, you know.
I'm trying to let myself as a speaker. Ah, there we go.
tricky tease up there.
Alright, we got a lot of
cool stuff up top here right now. I'm going gonna use my other account to share it out as well get you
double exposure yeah well I'm looking forward to like doing some more spaces
with getting some interviews with some of these larger companies too I've
gotten I've been interacting with like,
well, like all the, you know,
all the Web3 companies that you already know pretty much,
you know, like Moonpay and Magic Eden and a couple of the other, you know,
platforms and stuff like that.
I want to get either a community position.
There's a couple of community positions I've applied for,
can just get them to be a sponsor for an event too that would be great and i think the next one we're
going to get some cannabis sponsors like weed maps and a couple of those of those ones it'd be great
if i could get like you know till ray or like aurora cannabis like one of the main you know growers to be
to be a you know a sponsor it's not totally like legal though as far as like you know recreation like it kind of is but it kind of isn't and this like weird gray area where like as long as it's
classified as hemp you're good but yeah it's it's funny because it all smells the same like you know
like if you're out in in the city and you smell weed,
I think the cops would be attracted whether it was, you know, CBD or whatever.
But they've just been told now, like, you know, you just don't just leave them alone.
Unless it's like multiple pounds and you and they're also causing some other trouble.
You know, there's people just aren't getting in trouble for it anymore.
Like, that's it.
You've got to be like literally literally committing one or two crimes at the
same time as you're smoking weed.
You might not even get a weed charge.
You just get charged for the other stuff.
It definitely
is loud. It'll attract attention, but
they're not going to bother prosecuting you
for it unless it's a
massive amount. So what?
You get a small amount of cannabis and then it
turns out that it's all just THCA.
So, you know, they end up suing the police department for like wrongful or whatever.
But hell yeah.
Things are changing for the better.
I'm just grateful that I'm not in that industry anymore.
Man, could you imagine like, you know, when I first started, I was, you know, quarter pounds were, like, $1,100, right?
Now, if I were to sell a quarter pound, it'd be, like, $200.
I can't even, like, make the bills, you know, pay for the electricity, you know, let alone make a profit.
So, I mean, that's just Florida costs so much to grow indoors.
And you can't do it outdoors.
So there's no way to compete with like California or Oregon, you know, where you could just throw a seed in the ground and just get an amazing amount.
It's just wild.
Thumbs down.
That was an accident.
That was an accident.
I don't even know.
I wish you could swap that out
and put something else there instead of a thumbs down
I wish you could too
I wish you could use all the emojis
I thought somebody
did a hack or had a program
I believe it was on Android
that kind of let you change them out
I don't remember what it was on Android that kind of let you change them out.
I don't remember what it was called, though.
I mean, it's probably, I don't know if it's an actual hack or if it's just like an app that's available on the Google Play Store.
But, yeah, because I've definitely seen a couple of my, like, what is it?
They're kind of like black hats, but they're more like white hats at this point.
But they're hackers, so they like to mess with all those things.
And they found out how it was recalling in the program to pull up the different emojis.
And they just coded it so they could swap it out for whatever,
as long as it's something that's already in everybody you know, everybody's phones, you know, as far as the emojis go.
You can add it.
Because there's some emojis that just aren't part of, you know, this platform, I guess, right?
All right.
I was thinking about playing a song, actually.
listening to so much
different music recently. I've been kind of listening
to some club music,
but I'm always
listening to Clay Jean because his stuff
gets stuck in my head.
Let's see here.
What kind of music
have you been listening to recently?
Anything in particular?
I've honestly been listening to a lot of Metallica lately.
Yeah, there's a...
Gets me motivated.
Yeah, it gets you moving.
Higher energy. Yeah, it gets you moving. Higher energy.
All right.
Also, I've been listening to a lot of Central Sea, too, just because it's so funny.
I like the energy of it.
I'm going to play this as a play John track called I'm in Charge.
When he had a little argument with one of his managers at one
point he just kind of had to remember like remind him you know you're not the
boss I'm the one that's in charge I'm the artist I'm in charge so here you go
I'm in charge
Ain't tryna flex, I'm just here to set the bar
Go on, take a rest, you depressed, how bizarre
Bet you was pulling strings, but that ain't who you are
I'm in charge, ain't tryna flex, I'm serious, I'm in charge Ain't tryna flex I'm just here to set the bar
Come on, take a rest
You look pressed, I'm bizarre
But you always pullin' straight
Ain't the guy who you are
I'm a Russian farmer, I'm in charge.
Ain't tryna flex.
I'm serious.
I'm gonna take a rest.
I'll be sorry.
Bet you was pulling straight.
I'm in charge.
Mmm, delicious.
Cushmints.
Hey, that's what I have.
Yeah, it's actually Cushmints and Purple Chem mix.
Well, that's cool.
I actually have a Purple chem cross with something else.
That's funny.
But yeah, I'm liking the cush bins.
Yeah, me too.
It's got a nice stumpy smell to it.
After it's burnt too, you know?
There are some of those strains that just smell so good once they're burnt.
And once you smoke them, you can't even smell it the same.
It's kind of funny.
Like, you notice that?
When you haven't smoked, weeds smell so good.
So true. You don't even really notice it.
Hell yeah.
What up, Mike James?
That reminds me of, like,ave chapelle skit it's rick james fuck y'all couch that's what i was reminding me of what up mike hope you're doing good i don't
think i've uh maybe met you before maybe uh are you a friend of irai what brings you here feel free to come on up he got some gold
panning in his uh in his pin tweet that's a funny thing oh it's not an ear what the
i don't know it's not a ear i was like what is that oh shit that's the funny thing to do like
gold panning like it's crazy how there's gold in all of our rivers up in the Midwest like You can just you know pan any group like I'm any amount of like dirt that's on the side like of the Delta basically
And it's got it's got gold flakes in it
You think you would it'd be hard to find that cuz like gold's a relatively a heavy metal, you know
So it's gonna kind of sink to the bottom
But yeah, people people find some good shit out there
I used to go with my uncle
uh looking for all kinds of random stuff we'd look for gold but we'd look for
indian pottery arrowheads um all kinds of stuff like that and my uncle only has one eye he lost the other eye i think in like a firework accident like when he was a kid reckless you know he's a
reckless he's a real fun dude to hang out with though because he gets uh he can buy dynamite
as like a contractor and like level the top of a mountain put a house up there and you just have
extra dynamite so we like just gonna we'd go blow like random shit up and like there's like these
things called the arroyos where the water comes from the top of the mountain and it kind of gets funneled and it creates like a flash flood river and they can be dangerous
but they make these like you know these deep gouges that could be like between three feet or
like eight feet sometimes and we'll put like a microwave or something like that into it and then
like just detonate a microwave from like sitting on top of the roof
And you can hear like echo off the canyon walls and like the mountains and stuff like that
It's like right next to the Air Force Base, but they're always testing stuff. So people are kind of used to it
But things have changed over there man that you can't really do that anymore. It's so populated
But like when I want to say like when they first moved in they still had jets
buzzing the desert over there because there's a you know the air force base on the other side of
the mountains and the houses are adobe right it's like the uh it's like a mud house it's like a thick
mud concrete that's created out of the local clay and it looks like because it's local clay it looks
like the ground like you could barely see
the houses and so you're like real close to them but man these these jets were uh breaking the sound
barrier on the other side of the mountain and because they were right up next to all these
houses they were just blasting out windows you know people were getting all kinds of shit cracked
and broken and after the military had to pay for a couple, you know, houses, windows,
they started to, you know, move their jets to the other side of the mountain exclusively.
But it's pretty cool looking, though, when you see a jet break the sound barrier,
like 40 feet off the ground in the desert.
It's like nowhere else you can really do that kind of thing.
You've got trees everywhere, but in that part of the desert,
nothing's taller than like six, eight feet.
There's actually these really cool hills.
I forgot the name of the area, but it's all clay dunes,
and it kind of looks like something that Dr. Seuss would have come up with.
It's like, you know, he's got like these weird humps on his animals and stuff
it's like the ground though it's like all clay and then there's these random humps it kind of
looks like um uh what are they called moguls you know and when you're skiing like moguls but like
the whole the land is flat and it looks like that so these top there's like little rounded hills
that are all made of clay the top half of it
or top third of it would have grass on it and like a cactus or something like that like some kind of
desert plant so it's like bottom clay top with like this little hat of hair yeah it just looked
bizarre and like he couldn't run over the tops of the hills because the walls were too like steep
and there was something spiky at the top of the hills but there's plenty of room to run between them and we would hunt like oryx and and you know
coyotes or whatever was that was out there usually it was uh oryx or what's the other
it's not it's not it's almost like a mountain goat but it's not what's it called
It's almost like a mountain goat, but it's not.
What's it called?
What's an orc?
It's an African plain animal that was brought over, and it lives well in the desert.
They get really tall, like eight feet, and they have a crazy large horn on them.
They look like a cross between a horse and a zebra
a little bit it's oh i know what they are yeah african they are like a horse but their legs
are striped yeah right yeah yeah yeah they're they're just yeah cross between a horse and a
zebra right horse zebra yeah ant zebra yeah that's the other
that's the other animal we hit antelope uh that we we would hunt i've had all kinds of jerky i've
i've eaten jerky from everything out there except for the coyotes we haven't eaten a coyote yet
i don't think it's good meat i think probably not yeah because they're scavengers and they're dirty
Because they're scavengers and they're dirty.
There's not a whole lot of opportunities
to bathe in the desert.
So they're just smelly little
little things.
But they're fucking mean too.
They're really mean.
They would take people's animals all the time.
It's pretty bad.
We got Alicia back.
And we got a couple minutes here.
Yeah, what's up?
Guess what I found out.
You know Blockbuster, right?
Like that video.
Yeah, I was a manager of Blockbuster.
He's making a comeback as a streaming service.
That's the way.
That's funny.
I'm dead serious.
It's got a relatively recognizable name, so that's a smart move just for someone to
buy it but also you could buy it and because of all the liabilities reduce your tax burden
and then i mean so it might be just like a good tax uh shield but also that name is worth something
right yeah man yeah i have i was just joking about being a manager. People were joking about this, like, going to college,
that you could tell someone in your resume, right,
in your work history that you were a manager of, you know,
a bunch of, like, Toys R Us and Blockbuster.
Check out this post from New Kids.
Check out this post, Chick-Aid, that I just put up top.
I told you.
And it's positioning itself as the next Netflix.
I don't see it there yet.
Yeah, that's interesting.
I think I had a...
I might even still have like a Blockbuster card
somewhere just because I
kept it. But I remember having
one in my wallet that I lost and I found
it like, I don't know, eight years ago.
Oh, goodness.
This is an artifact.
Blockbuster is from what, the 90s or the 2000s? I found it like, I don't know, eight years ago. Oh, goodness. Oh, this is an artifact. Okay.
Bookmarkers from what, the 90s or the 2000s?
I mean, I would say 90s.
I want to say by the time I left high school in like 2002, it was starting to fade pretty hard.
I was probably in college when it died.
Also, another update for me,
I applied for a job
with a record label.
Oh, a record label.
Just, I mean,
what is it you're doing?
Just to get your foot in the door
is the great part.
No, no, no, no, no.
This is a virtual thing.
Oh, virtual.
So, what I'm going to be doing
is helping...
Putting the door is an expression.
Not like the literal.
What I'm going to be basically
doing is, I guess, helping bands get
signed. If
I get the job, it's going to be with
Eclipse Records.
If I get the job, I will be
working with a bunch of metal bands.
And I'm not
talking bands like Slayer and metallica
and all that i'm talking modern metal bands nice yeah i'm gonna be working with a bunch of those
if i get the job yeah my uh so i have i've got a bunch of like friends and and family in the
industry obviously i've got friends and family in every industry now. Dang. But so if you look up FKA Twigs, there's a guy who plays in the videos.
There's music videos and stuff.
You can look them up online.
There's also a performance that they did on Saturday Night Live.
And the guy on there, his name is Timmis.
That's my wife's cousin.
But yeah, they got me getting on to SNL as a music performance.
That's pretty.
You know what I mean?
I feel like you've made it if you've made it to SNL.
But, you know, SNL picks a lot of people up early on in their careers.
And she has an interesting, like like auditory issue it's like a
where she kind of hears sounds um so she would play music along to the mute the sound she hears
in her head so you know it's kind of it's kind of like jamming out with your it's like your
instrument while you're listening to your songs but the thing is we're not we don't hear what's
going on in her head.
So to the average person, it sounds very odd at first.
It's definitely an acquired taste, but it does sound kind of cool.
Look it up, FKA Twigs.
You can just type FKA Twigs Saturday Night Live and then probably find that video of her performance there.
That's her most popular song.
I got to see her when she came through Orlando
because, I mean, I got in for free
because I got to see Timo's.
It's funny because he's the only black guy in the family.
Oh, we got another friend up on stage.
What's up, Mike?
I just gave you a follow.
How's it going?
Hey, what's going on?
How y'all doing?
Good, man. This is just my normal space where i donate time as an advisor to help people with their goals and
we just shoot the shit sometimes you know smoke some bowls i'm a cannabis activist and uh i love
crypto and nfts so that's what a d5 space donkey is but yeah what you uh okay uh just space hopping to be honest and i saw this uh
space open and i was like let me hop in there and see what y'all talking about
uh yeah i've been away just really space hopping nice i do a lot of space hopping too i mean i
people used to just call me a space horror because i'd be going from one to the next
but you never know what you're going to find.
Yeah, and then that's how I can bring people together, though, too.
I mean, I used to try to answer questions for people, but now with AI, I don't need to answer a whole lot of questions.
It's more about just networking and bringing the right people together.
That's the most valuable thing to do in this space.
But that's how you do it is you've got to go to all the spaces and introduce yourself. People have got to know what you do in order to hire you. There's
a fine line of letting people know what you do and just sounding pompous. But that's why
it's good to team up with a friend sometimes and have them talk about you when you talk
about them. It's a little trick to getting out there. But what you do on Web3?
You're a collector.
You're just part of the communities.
You're a trencher.
What's you doing?
Oh, I used to trench.
it ain't for me no more.
I mainly do perps
and hold spot.
That's really all I do now.
Until liquidity comes back, then trenching would be fun again.
But right now, it's just too much of PVP, you know?
Yeah, yeah.
We need to get full to mass adoption.
We need more people being like highlighting music and a product or something that you get that's just a discount
by buying the digital collectible version.
NFT is just a receipt.
By getting your internet receipt or digital collectible
that ties to an experience or a product.
I don't know why Tesla doesn't come with an NFT
that holds their warranty and all their maintenance information and the metadata, because that would be a good thing to any car, right?
Have all the everything in metadata accidents, you know, insurance issues.
I just never liked NFTs, man.
I just don't like that.
It's a liquid.
It doesn't.
It's not linked to a liquidity pool.
So what do you sell?
Somebody else got to buy it from you like a token. You's not linked to a liquidity pool. So when you sell it, somebody else got to buy it from you.
Like a token, you just sell back to the liquidity pool.
In and out.
For the most part, you are correct, right?
If there's not a huge active community that's buying them constantly,
then they're kind of illiquid.
You have to take like a lowball wheat offer
or find someone to match over the counter.
But there are now 404s where you can swap your NFT for coins for whatever their token is.
So that's becoming more popular on the Solana chain especially.
Then it is liquid because you could always sell the tokens.
I do have a crazy experience with NFTs.
I think, again, to like this story.
So there was a project, friends of a friend, last cycle.
It's dead now.
It was an NFT project called Tripsters, right?
It was a token.
It was an NFT, blah, blah, blah.
And so you buy or you mint these NFTs and you enter a raffle.
And the raffle, they were giving out three Bored Apes back then when they were like 100 ETH each.
My friends and I, we pooled our NFTs together.
And we said, whoever wins will split it even among all of us.
And my buddy, Chris, that lucky son of a gun ended up winning one.
We sold it for $9,80.
And ever since then, I was like, all right, cool.
We're done with NFTs.
So I do have a really positive story and experience with NFTs,
but just nothing else worked out after that, man.
Nobody's buying the stuff and like damn people
lowball you i did not like it at all yeah and we'll see so like my nft i i uh cto'd this project
because i i actually created the defy space donkeys for a customer or for a client you know
that wanted to sell art uh just to make, because NFTs were making crazy money.
He's like, well, so we need to do like a regenerative collection.
And so I did all the research, created all the traits,
hired an artist, made a 10,000 collection.
He didn't pay me.
So at the end of the month, I was just like, all right, it's mine now.
And I'm the utility. It's an hour of my time.
And then you have a club membership.
What's up, Ira?
You got to take off?
Yeah, Shorty Space is starting right now.
You want to pin it up top and we'll all mob over there?
Oh, that's not why I'm going.
I have to talk to Ray.
But I will probably join you guys if you're going to be over there.
I'll probably see you over there.
So nice talking to you, though.
I'll catch you all later. Yeah, good to see you as always. I'll see you over there. Awesome. So nice talking to you, though. Yeah. I'll catch you all later.
Yeah, good to see you as always.
I'll see you over there.
Yeah, so Shori Talz is a friend of ours.
We usually go and raid her space right by now.
But we can continue this conversation.
Pin that on top.
And we'll go there with you.
Yeah, cool.
So you're basically just kind of uh you know stacking some coins and
you're you're probably holding like the the main stuff um or you got any meme coins yeah so i
basically uh no no meme coins i luckily thank god this cycle i smartened up a little bit and uh
dumped all of them but so i do a lot of perps and uh the profits out of perps it goes into btc
that's kind of my thing yeah makes sense that hasn't let me down yet yeah yeah that's i mean
that's pretty much the the current that is the play right now um everything is kind of taking a
dip i feel like uh there's going to be a lot of institutional pressure coming up here. At the end of the cycles, like quarters and depending on what each exchange has their, or not exchange, fund has their rules for,
they've got to rebalance their portfolio and make sure they're covering all their liabilities and stuff like that.
So the crypto ETFs coming through are actually getting a lot of popularity.
And there's so much demand for it that they can't even
Like sell all of it in some situations. They don't want to create like a crazy spike in profits and prices or whatever
So they're like constantly buying crypto
And those end of the quarters when they really shore up those those accounts, there's a big purchase usually
It depends depends you know they some places are not
covering their liabilities and they're just letting people like do you know 100x leverage
and hoping they get liquidated instead of having to pay them and for the most part they are just
like throwing you know prices up and down and just liquidating massive amounts of people so it
makes they make a lot of money doing that but but that's why I don't recommend anyone be leveraged.
Plus, if you were to win, they just declare bankruptcy.
They're not going to pay you a billion dollars or anything.
You know, they're just going to be like, yeah, we're out.
They're going to pay everybody good salaries and drive it into the ground and leave because they can't afford to pay everybody.
Especially if we had a super cycle and everyone was long.
Could you imagine? People would just be going
bankrupt. All those leverage
companies would just be out and then
you lose all your money because it's stuck in there
and not your keys, not your crypto type
Also, I'm the first tokenized
personal advisor. We had to deploy these on Polygon.
They started at $3.
Now we've got 370 members, and the high sale was 0.1 ETH.
So we've come a long way since 2021.
I got into crypto in 2016.
When did you start finding this space interesting?
Did you come over here from the stock market?
You're from like the stock market.
I dabbled.
I dabbled.
No, I dabbled in crypto in 2017, but I was just dabbling with it.
Just gambling.
Didn't take it seriously, which I regret.
And the end of 2019 is when I started buying heavily.
And yeah, I've done pretty good.
I cannot complain.
Yeah, for your timing to be in on that,
that was probably good.
So you came in right after the crash.
You heard the news that people went in
and then watched it crash.
And it was like, okay, maybe when it levels out,
I'll buy some.
All right.
Yeah, that's cool.
Oh, yeah. Oh, cool yeah cool man I definitely dropped you a
follow it'll be good to connect yeah I'll give you a follow back I'll be
listening to you yeah cool lots of spaces and you know you don't have to
hire me as an advisor you can just come through Monday and Wednesday and just
ask any kind of questions you want yeah and subscribe for more tricks I need to
get 5,000 people paying me two dollars a
month and then i can just do this full time just drop around handing you know helping people out
and spreading that positivity that that's what i'm all about so uh songs of eating in the house
following songs he's a legend absolutely awesome uh we've done a couple different collabs
so i think i don't know i think i'm in like four songs five songs now total and i think three of them are with him it's pretty pretty funny getting these little
cameos but he puts things together where there's just tons of people you know saying a couple
things or contributing a verse everyone's saying love or hello in their language is pretty cool
yeah but let's go and model shorty talls.
It's a good place to chill and see.
Hell yeah.
I'll see you guys over there.
I'll see you over there.
Much love fam.
I appreciate you all popping through and yeah,
feel free to stack up those questions and those goals and join us next one.
Now shorty towels,
here we come.
Bye. and join us next one. Now, shorty towels, here we come. Bye, y'all.
