Full Transcription
Hi, babe.
Well, hello there.
I don't know why it is whenever you get her first i always get a big cheesy grin you do yeah because i'm like you're so sweet to show up i know right it's still working
and hey don't say i know right i know right
hey look i'm trying to see something nice to you, and you're like, I know, right?
I'm so amazing to fucking show up, bro.
Aren't you impressed with me?
I'm cooler than you think, man.
Wow.
Hey.
Hey.
Tricky Buddha's here.
Tricky Buddha.
I love the way he does his intro.
Welcome to Mamma Bear's space.
Mamma Bear? Yeah. What the fuck? Tricky Buddha. I love the way he does his intro. Welcome to Mammoth Bear's fair in space.
Mammoth Bear?
Yeah.
What the fuck?
Why am I Mammoth Bear all of a sudden?
It's Tricky Buddha from Defy Space Donkeys.
Because there's a Mammoth Bear and there's a Mama Bear.
M-O-M-M-A.
M-O-M-M-A.
Bear.
Okay. She's with the Stard-A Bear. Oh, okay.
She's with the Stardogs Project.
Okay, okay.
Sounds good.
We said earlier in this space, and I know that they're talking about you, but I was like, well, technically it's
Mamma Bear, not Momma Bear.
Because I was
trying to find you earlier and was just like,
no, this is the wrong account.
I swear she had a v friend
pfp oh it's so funny and it's also funny because people always think that they've met me
every single time i will get on a big space they're like hey what's up down there to mama bear
god it's been years since i've talked to you and i'm like bro we've never talked i have no idea who
you are so either i've lost it or they've lost it or it's just a very common name.
I think there's a lot of mama bears out there.
You sound like a cross between three of my other friends.
See?
Damn, now we're really screwed.
Well.
Do you know Vita from the BTFD rabbits?
I don't.
I don't.
Uh-uh.
Do you know Darcy from, okay, no. I'm going to bring them all in here one
day. The four of you all talking together would sound like just the weirdest thing because it's
all like the same tone and accent a little bit. That would be amazing. And then so what we did
on April Fool's is me and Papa and Toast,
we all got into each other's accounts.
We delegated it.
And then we were speaking from that.
So imagine if you had all four of us and we were just like really screwing with people.
That would be amazing.
It's like a clearer English version of Vita.
Oh, interesting.
Or a nicer version of Max.
I don't.
We like fake fight all the time.
It's kind of funny.
Maybe it's fake. Maybe she just really hates my intro.
One of the two.
That's awesome.
What's going on here tonight we're presently
present with mama and papa always presently present you know we never know what's going
to happen around here um i am not a planner i don't do well with plans and then when i plan
something it goes to shit and then i get all upset with myself so um this is just a space for
everybody to shoot the shit and it usually goes wherever
it goes to be honest and we usually have great spaces so um i attribute that to everybody who
shows up all the time and just kind of gives input so yeah it's good to have you here i love
your intro by the way it's very good is it recorded tell me about it i'm just gonna ask that and like that's something oh were you yeah so yeah well so when i made the defy space donkeys up to to mean
lovers of crypto and nfts i was trying to think of like a commercial and i so i hired a guy off
of fiverr it was like 10 bucks and i got these little these little buttons you know you get one
of the buttons for your dog it says like treat and your dog yes yes yes you send one of those
buttons and you give them like 10 bucks and the voice voice does a voiceover so i just say it's tricky buddha and then i hit the button
from defy defy space defy space donkey i love it defy you know what's hilarious is, um, I actually, I actually saw those, um, those buttons that they use for dogs.
Um, a lady is using it for her preschool class and I'm like, Oh my God, she's so fucking brilliant.
So she has the little button and they push it. And what they have to do is they have to
say that they have to see how many, um, I suck at this part, like apple, right? Is that two syllables? Is that
right, Papa? Cause you know, I suck at this shit. So yeah. So, um, anyway, so they have to use this,
so they push the button, it tells them what to look for, then they read it. And then after they
get it right, then they do a little high five to a picture. And I'm like, dude, how the, they're
just training them like dogs at this point. So I'm, I was impressed. I was like, dude, they're just training them like dogs at this point. So I was impressed.
I was like, all right, then.
It's cool.
A lot of the same simple principles.
For sure.
Yeah.
I mean, that's why we all reward engagement.
Exactly.
No, you're totally right.
When I first met Papa, he was like, I'm kind of like a trained monkey.
And I'm like, what?
And he's like, well, you know, I've been in other relationships and I'm already trained.
So I was like, damn, wicked, you already trained, bro?
This is pretty exciting.
So, but he's definitely not a monkey, right, babe?
You're not a trained monkey.
I always thought that was the rudest thing he said about himself, but.
I'm a code monkey, so, you know.
You are a code monkey.
That's true. That is is true i don't know i always was like what does that mean you're a trade trained monkey but i'm now actually rocking a monkey yes which i never thought i'd be
doing these are these are minting for two e oh shit i put out a i put out a a tweet hey you know this is valuable real estate for a thousand
bucks i'll rep your pfp for a month and then like five minutes later i jumped into the cyber api
club which is what this is and i said hey if you just give me one of those i'll i'll wear it for
six months and code was like okay i I need to start doing that.
I guess I have to be a little bigger, though.
I have to be a little cooler.
It helps that I've been here for like three or four years, I think.
True.
Yeah.
Yeah, that makes sense.
12,500 following helps.
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking.
I need to be a little bit bigger and cooler.
That's okay.
I can get you in an interview with a thousand people like organically
instantly. Like there's, I got some, I got some perks, you know, it's not, it's not all just
monkey flash. Right, right. No, that's awesome. Yeah. I always hear you in other spaces. I love
that we're in the Greenpilk Collective together. I feel a little like imposter-ish in there because
I don't have a project, but I just love everybody's project.
And I like everybody to lift each other up.
So I'm super excited that we met.
And, you know, anytime I see you're like, hey, let's head over here.
I love that.
And I know some people get annoyed with it, but I love to be reminded.
Because oftentimes since I left the previous community, I don't have that like strict quote, like, you know, from this space to this space.
And then we roll to this space.
And I know it sounds crazy, but I kind of miss that part because there's so many dope spaces out there that I'm missing.
So I was excited that you led me into one yesterday.
I had never met several of them.
I just need to be better about speaking.
So, yeah.
Thank you for saying that
because I totally like, I mean, I don't take anything personal anyway. I always, it's all
just data in my mind. I love data and patterns and stuff. That's like a whole topic I can run
down. That's your friend, Papa. Do you hear him? You guys are friends. I'm asking about financial models sometime. So I just look at it as data.
And the noobs that are either uncomfortable or not at the level that they want to get at, they get jealous early.
The insecure people don't like that.
It goes the constant reminders.
It's like you're taking away from my time or my attention kind of, right? But all the OGs and the people who are building like real brands that have been here for more than like two years, they all really understand the value of being a community whore and going to all the different places.
That's definitely, yes.
Straight up Cole, you are just a community whore.
You just hop into all these different spaces and i'm like
well yeah how do you think i'm growing at this rate how do you think i got 9 000 organic followers
in the last year like how do you think i got all these collabs to work the 30 sponsors the
the hundreds of projects and artists that came to our zao chela thing in miami iRL like you don't
you can't just get those people people don't
just get on people don't just fall on your lap bro exactly i mean depends on where you go but yes
you're right the irl events because everyone tries to do their own thing and then that nobody works
together and it's just it's lame it's but i've been writing more and more people so it's like
it becomes a huge hub and
then people who showing up you know for the first time to a web3 event there's plenty to do they
didn't need to like you know book a schedule because we already had it all figured out
right i love that cooked for everybody i had all the supplies i had everything all set for miami
it was fucking crazy dude That's so dope.
I've never been to an IRL event yet for crypto.
I'm always so nervous too,
but I think that's going to be one of my goals.
You know, just, it doesn't need to be right away,
but I know it's something that Babs attends
and lots of people I truly care about
and they've had a great experience.
Like, you know, I've been to some of these spaces, well, in the past with the KOLs that are like,
only these, you know, hard R pieces of shit, you know, loser people are there at these events and,
you know, they all smell and, you know, just really putting them down. And I'm like, gosh,
it doesn't make you want to go check anything out. know what I mean so but it's nice to hear an opposite you know somebody saying no it's great I met people and
I networked and there is something to be said about being in the presence of other people
and feeling their actual energy and you know what I mean like body body language matters dude it
just does um space is just an infomercial for your own project. Count me out.
Yeah, no shit. And, and also if your space is just talking poorly about everybody else that
you've ever encountered and how everybody hates you because you're so fucking awesome,
count me out. I have no interest in that either. So, um.
Have you been following me around? No, I'm just
I seriously hear that once a day and I, and I get it. Like I'm a founder. So I understand like
kind of where they're coming from, but at the same time, like maybe they don't understand how
that sounds. Right. You know what I mean? Right. Well, I don't know if you ever heard the old
saying, I don't even know if it's an old saying, but I'm saying it's an old saying.
If somebody feels comfortable enough to talk shit about somebody in front of me, what, how do I expect that you won't do the same?
Do you know what I mean?
Right.
Like if I, if I, if I, they will do the same to you.
Straight up.
Like you just met them.
They, they don't have any loyalties.
Like exactly. It trips me out basically assume i'm being recorded 24 7 because i probably am
on a lot right stage and maybe hot mic anyway so it's probably just a good thing to assume
um but but yeah even even before we had quote unquote recorded spaces over here, I was finding my spaces on YouTube.
People were like doing research on the industry.
And I'm like, oh, this is interesting.
Oh, okay.
I'm more on your YouTube than on my own goddamn YouTube.
Right.
What the hell?
Right.
People are monetizing off of your ass.
Oh, that's amazing.
Huh. That's cool. Yeah, that's something else I really, really want to look into. And I know I
say it all the time, but I really, um, the tech actually has really been pushing that, you know,
just going cross platform. Um, so, you know, just there being a way for, you know, a stream to be
transpiring at the same time as this, or, you know, whatever it may be. So
all the things. You were there for our 420 space, right? I was. I tried so hard to be there the
whole time. I did fall asleep. I left for my space and came back. So I was in there two or three
with two or three accounts, but I definitely fell asleep for part of it. And yeah, but okay, we had over 6,000 accounts
come through that 24 hours. And another 2,000 on Restream. Wow. Okay. That's great. I mean,
to put it in perspective, like, that's one of the, that's like one of the biggest spaces of the year.
Right. Now that's amazing. And, and to me, this is my thing is when I go to some of these larger spaces or that's, you know, visually, they're just not. And it frustrates me so much because I used to be like them too, right? Like I used to go in these spaces and people be like, oh, mama, you know, everybody hates us. That's why they're actually an other listener because they don't want other people to see. Do you know what I mean? To see that we're in here. I never quite understood that.
Then I started working in accounts. I ended up being really good at moving accounts and
helping them get monetized. I'm like, shit, fire. All of a sudden, I started doing research.
I'm like, well, that's a bot. That's a bot.
What the fuck? There's bots everywhere. So then I went into those other listeners and damn it,
if those were not all bots. So, um, I tell people in this space, observe and don't absorb. Um,
that is my biggest, uh, you know, advice in this space in general, you know, don't get,
don't think that you're doing less than
somebody else don't think that somebody is more than you because of numbers because the reality
is is it's probably not that it's all that it's cracked up to be so you mean that space that
opened three minutes ago doesn't have 3500 organic people in it isn't it mind-blowing? It just blows my mind.
I'm like, not only are you wasting money on those bots, but you are assuming we're all idiots.
Right.
So if that's what they're assuming, that we're all idiots, are they just trying to extract liquidity from us?
Like, what is going on here?
And those are the exact same people who who like, we do not vibe.
Like they don't want someone coming in who's charismatic. They want it to be a space about
their space, about their thing. If you're not there to fluff them, they don't want to hear it.
They don't want any real conversations. It is an infomercial and you're, you're not towing their
line. You're fucking with their space. Right. Right. Yeah. And it's so black and white anymore. Yeah, me too.
It's funny because I remember I even tried afterwards to go back to some of the spaces.
And have you ever just been around somebody you just can't handle the noise anymore? You can't
handle what they're saying. You know, everything they're saying is just complete bullshit. And it's
a waste of your time. That's where I got. And it made me sad, honestly, because it was a hard reality for me because of so many people that I had really made genuine
connections with. And, you know, all of a sudden I was nothing to all of them. And, you know,
I'm not going to lie. It's been, it's been a difficult journey because either way, whether
it was good in good, bad, or in between, I feel that we form relationships with people, you know, like I said,
whatever, whatever level it was, but when that's lost, that's still a grieving process, you know,
you still have to figure out like, oh shit, I'm not allowed to message that person anymore,
or that person doesn't care enough about me in order to, so it's been a, it's been a very, um, huge learning experience for me. This whole
web three journey has been, so yeah, that's all we can do though. You know, just keep fucking
learning. The one thing we're learning, they're learning. You never know where somebody's at in
their head or with their problems or just evolutionary or, you know, they'll, they'll come
around. That's why I say.
The other thing though, that I,
that I've been kind of reminding myself about is it for just as many people that I've, you know, maybe lost,
I've equally gained just as many new,
even like cool like-minded people that like,
I didn't even know you existed out here
that's true babe that's true so it's leaning more into that gratitude yeah yeah and it's funny
because I talk about that all the time but I need reminding of that and that's what I love too about
this space and just the community in general that we've been around is people will tell you things
like that and uh with love you know like I've had people hit me up before and they're like,
yeah, this was whatever said.
And I just really wanted to touch base
and let you know this is coming from a loving place.
And I'm like, oh my God, thank you so much.
Because if that person has the right intentions
and they're showing you that love and respect,
that's what I want around me.
I'm going to comment. I'm going to, I'm going to comment.
I'm going to pick things apart.
I like to find patterns and try to find the efficient, easy trick behind everything and
share that trick.
So just tell me to shut up if it's not wanted.
That is one of my, that's my toxic trait is giving advice when nobody's asked for it.
And like, you know, they'll come back.
Usually they'll come back and be like, all right, you know, I'm sorry I snapped it to you.
I know you were trying to help.
I just wasn't ready for it.
I'm like, yeah, I kind of know you weren't ready for it.
But I was also just like really tired of you doing it.
So I just blurted it out.
I could have done that better, you know.
Right.
It's a learning opportunity for both of us, you know.
Exactly.
I'm trying to get better at like delivering good, you know, articulate, simple instructions on how to improve or avoid doing awkward things.
Because nobody really is perfect.
I mean, and society is swinging and stuff.
I watch old movies and I'm like, oh, this would be canceled now.
Right.
Me too.
I'm like, shit, this wouldn't fly today.
Uh-huh.
Yeah, totally.
Yeah.
It's funny you bring that up, too, because I was actually reading something earlier that said that we are actually a bunch of eight-year-old humans on this earth.
And I'm like, what does that mean?
And what they were saying is that we are not born with emotional maturity.
And I was like, mind fucking blown, bro. What?
And it's so true because I feel like I have emotionally matured just since I met Papa.
You know, I'm not giving the guy credit for everything, but I have emotionally matured
since I've spoken to Babs. You know, just people that we choose to be around every single day
and they teach us things, our maturity level is just going up and up and up.
I was like, oh my God, it puts it in such a better perspective because I think sometimes what the actual fuck is this person even thinking or doing?
But shit, if they're just eight years old, I mean, what a cool way to put it, right?
I was like, shit.
All right, then.
So you guys, some people are just not capable of receiving or listening because they're just not capable.
So instead of giving them your energy and just really, you know, being pissed off at them or even giving them that negative energy back, just don't.
It's right. Holy shit.
My mind was blown when I learned that today. I don't even know if it's true, but it works for me.
So no, it's spot on. I mean, we're not, you're not given a manual on how your body and brain
work and you don't like, we don't figure it out until later. When I figured out how much you can
actually control your brain, this is how it works. Your brain is a muscle, right?
But instead of getting stronger in an exercise,
it gets better at the exercise, right?
So if you're thinking positive or you're thinking depressed,
your brain will get better at doing those things.
So if you're constantly depressed,
your brain gets more efficient and quicker at being depressed.
On a scientific level, what happens is when you think or remember anything, it fires those neurons
and the neurons latch onto each other. The more you think and remember that same thought process,
the more that neuron strengthens and fires again. So it becomes to a point where that's just the
most natural, easy way for your brain to function
and it becomes an automatic process that's why repetition breeds success that's why you practice
things because when you fight after you've fired your neuron about three times it's got a semi
strong connection and you it becomes easier to do and memorize so you are training your you can
train your brain on how to think so change is the
only constant you're either getting dumber or smarter so if you surround yourself with smarter
people your brain is stimulated and you become smarter if you surround yourself with dumb people
or you're not thinking you just decay that's just how it that's how it works so the exercise is
imagine tomorrow you meet someone who is just an awesome human being.
You want to spend time with this person.
You would love to work with them.
You would love to hang out with them.
If they needed something, you would be there for them.
And become that motherfucker.
Like, break down what qualities it is that makes a person awesome and become that motherfucker.
Right.
Because with repetition, you will become that person easily.
Which is also interesting because I think that in the past it was, so I have done a lot of, well, therapy in general.
And it's been very difficult for me to find people who are well-versed in trauma therapy.
It's two very different things, right? And for me to find somebody who can do trauma therapy, well, I shit
you guys not, it's been not even a month when my therapist and I were sitting down talking and I
said to her, is there any way for me to heal my trauma without having to go back in the past,
re-traumatize myself and process those things.
And she was like, oh, absolutely.
And I'm like, are you?
I wanted to shake her because we have been together for over two years.
And I'm like, are you fucking?
You couldn't have told me this however long ago.
Well, it turns out that this is a more, it's a newer way of doing things.
Because in the past, it was always you had a newer way of doing things because in the past it was always, you
had to revisit what has transpired, process that shit and go through it, which then is re-traumatizing.
And it's the same thing. If you're telling like exactly what you're saying, if you're telling
your brain, I'm depressed, I'm sad, I'm in danger, I'm unsafe. And by going back and reliving those
moments, I was right back there.
My body doesn't know the difference from 10 years ago versus today.
So it was, it was just like mind blowing to me.
So I feel like I'm, I feel like I've had this huge, yeah, this huge, like, cloud.
Exactly.
Yeah.
And that's, so the thing is like, you need to go through the the trauma once with doctor or someone so they can understand where you're coming from.
So then they can from there provide perspective and techniques for coping.
And those techniques are usually like acknowledging that it is a feeling.
If that feeling is not helpful now and there's nothing you can do with that emotion, then it's not valid.
and there's nothing you can do with that emotion, then it's not valid. It's just a sensory input.
In which case you recognize that it's happening and you correct the thought process to how you
want your thought process to be, which would be, you know, maybe focusing on work, focusing on what
you're grateful for, positivity. And the more you, you don't let your brain spiral downward,
you don't let your brain spiral downward the easier it becomes to spiral upward yeah absolutely
i love that remember that babe i like that it's good it's so good
holy shit well we just like barely even said hello we just want to do a full-ass conversation
tricky buddha we're glad you're here. I'm sorry.
No, you're good.
I think it's great.
I think this is literally just how it goes.
What were you going to say, Papa?
Sorry.
I was going to say that that is just basically how things run. But it's good stuff.
Go straight into the deep end.
Exactly.
We're straight into the deep end.
Well, I'm a straight into the deep end. Exactly. We're straight into the deep. Well, I'm a straight into the deep end person.
You're not.
Well, I mean, I need to learn how to swim in order to do that.
Yes.
That is true, my love.
That is true.
Learning how to swim.
That's those fucking tools, bro.
I'm telling you.
I don't know.
I didn't even follow my own rules, but I have some good tips.
I have one that's like space etiquette tips for like people who are new to the space.
And then I have another one that's space hosting tips for people who are kind of new to hosting.
And there's a couple like psychological principles in there too that kind of just help it for building community and stuff like that.
But I could put them, I could just, I could tag you in them.
Heck yeah.
You can put them up in the Jumbotron.
I don't give a shit.
That's awesome.
Let me find them for you.
Yeah, definitely.
I don't think I have,
it's the DeFi,
what is it?
I'm sorry.
I suck at this.
Tricky Buddha from the DeFi.
DeFi, Stonky.
Stonky.
Okay.
I was literally trying to hear it in my head
in order to figure it out.
babe, we don't have any of those, do we?
No, we don't.
Okay. What is it on? It's on EVE?
It is on Polygon. Prices are in EVE, but it's on Polygon.
The floor is .0425.
Okay.
And that is the same as if you can get it from me. They're all only sold by me right
now. I don't think anyone's listed but me. Oh, shit. Okay. Bullish. So what happens is,
because each one is representative of an hour of my time as well. So can each one is a consultation if it hasn't been like used already right so that's that's a little benefit that you know there's no
that's not a confusion because there's nobody else that even listed right now
but you can also if you want to pick your perks or your traits rather and you
know if there's a certain trait or color that kind of stands out to you then I
can take any kind of payment i do a lot
of otc deals most of my transactions are just otc deals and once i sell one i don't i won't list one
or for that price or or below it ever again okay so but where do i get to look at them like i'm super visual like i want to know where okay you go to uh to the defi
space donkeys um page okay and um it's it's pinned on right under there the pin tweet has a has a
little reply to it that has the open c you could also go to the website um but that's the easiest way tricky Buddha dot ETH is dot limo is my
decentralized website this is I saw this I didn't know how this intro is gonna go
you know it just kind of I don't we're here now you know I found an
exploited a glitch in the matrix to upload that audio file so every time you read this you hear it you hear my voice in your head my best work yet
no it's really good um had you i mean you guys remember like certain commercials where you're
like five eight eight two three hundred empire know, I guess that's like Empire Glass.
But we do.
You guys, it's so, it's really, it's really smart.
Jingles have been around for a long time for a reason.
I'm just the first guy to do it in Web 3.
That's awesome.
I feel like, so Papa has a jingle.
Every time that he comes in, no, actually in general, anytime that Papa dinner's done, he does his singing.
Go ahead, babe, show him what it is.
Dinner time.
Yep.
And it's in that tone every time.
And then it reminds me of that song.
Summertime.
Exactly.
And living's easy.
Exactly.
I know I was off pitch there, but it's okay.
That's what it reminds me of.
But it's funny because I'll message my son and I'll be like,
it's dinner time.
He's like, oh, I already heard.
So it's literally this thing and it's become a thing every single night.
And yeah, it's really kind of fun.
So we have our own jingle around the house.
I had chickens for a while. i used to go outside and go
all the time they looked up they looked up at me and they just went
that's hilarious that they made that tone and i started like imitating them and then that became
like their command whistle whenever it was like food time oh that's so cool animals animals are
amazing yeah you could train chickens i didn't know that but if you get them young enough you
can train them just like dogs you can oh i didn't know that yeah oh my god i am obsessed with animals
i i don't have chickens Do you still have your chickens?
No, it was a while ago.
I had like over a dozen.
At one point, I had like 10 at once.
But I've had a lot throughout the years.
The first two were tasty and delicious.
Oh my God, that's awesome.
Papa says I can have a pig, but I have to name it what, honey?
Bacon.
Bacon. Bacon.
That's fucked.
Either that or speck.
Speck?
Yeah, speck.
What is that?
Bacon?
I would call it Applewood and just hope it, like, you know, he embodies it, you know?
I don't know. Animals are cool, though though i didn't know you could train chickens they would follow me around the yard and like i would point to like
anthills or bugs and they would eat them it was pretty oh dude that's brilliant one time though
that said they would just chase me around and assume that i would always had food
but i went outside with some leftovers once.
I did the call.
And they come running over.
And a baby squirrel fell out of the treehouse next to me.
And they ate it alive in front of me like raptors.
Oh, my God.
Like screaming.
I'll never get the sound out of my head.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. That's horrible. Probably the one of,
one of the worst things that happened to me. My boys were so young. Oh my God. This was so bad.
So I went to go take out the trash and I had bare feet and I went and lifted the lid. And as I
closed it, I didn't know where that noise came from but I felt something squish under
my foot as well and it was a baby bird it was so sad and my boys were like devastated oh my god I
will never forget that dude it was so bad I came outside and found a baby cardinal um it was two
eggs in a in a nest and um and one of the eggs was like i don't think
it ever hatched but the other one hatched and the nest had fallen out and so i was like shit the
nest is on the ground we have chickens like this mama bird's not coming back right so i like kind
of took care of it and now this freaking cardinal comes back and visits me all the time oh and it scared the
shit out of me multiple times i'll be sitting in my room and like it'll come up to the window and
just be like tap tap tap tap tap i'm trying to get my attention i'm like oh my god that's awesome
it's so cool they totally come back every every season dude that's so awesome now i am like i am
like snow white um when, when I go outside,
if we drive down the road yesterday, I actually almost crashed. Hopefully Papa didn't see that.
Um, but I was actually, we were coming up to a light and I was paying attention to the dog that
was hanging out of the door or out of the window. And I'm like rolling down the wrong windows,
trying to call the dog to say hello to it um when I see anything I just I go out back
and I hear birds and I'm like hi hi sweet little bird I have a beetle on my window right now and
I keep going over and talking to him I've named him Herbert today um I just I love things I love
I love I love it. So that's okay. I found my space etiquette and my hosting tips.
Oh, you did? Okay. Please tell me about them. I'd love to know about this.
Oh, yeah. So they're written up there, but the hosting basics provide clear guidance or format for the space.
Like when the space opens, that's the time to do it usually, right?
Give your announcements and the format of the space like when the space opens that's the time to do it usually right your announcements and then the format of the space because if you're not going to bring people
up right away just you know like you tell them you make it known that that's what the thing is
you know sometimes there's interviews and they bring people up at the end like just tell people
the format that way no one's like they're not getting to me that kind of bullshit right um
because you're also going to get it you're going to hear it in the dms if you don't follow any of
these rules you're going to hear summit in the dms if you don't follow any of these rules you're gonna hear summit in the demons that's why all these rules came about
lead the conversation with questions seems pretty obvious uh when off course play a song or reset
the room with the general announcement um welcome new speakers and listeners a roll call makes
people feel seen and appreciated five being in a co-host or bringing in a co-host or bringing a co-host or two that provide value and
fit the space topic six remind people to share the room and tag friends seven
reward top contributors whether it's a shout out or giveaway you want to reward
those people that are adding value right at a giveaway or game to get people
engaged emoji dance parties, giveaways.
There's lots of ways you can make games,
AI games, have fun with it.
Encourage comments on the topic
and post to get more attention.
So like, tell them you can,
hey, put down your answer in the total pill
or come up and tag something up top.
Right.
People engage. If it gets out of control, you know, right. People engage.
I think it's out of control.
Just mute the room.
You've got,
you have the power,
boot toxic people and predatory accounts.
Like don't even give them a chance.
You're going to,
you'll get used to figuring out which ones are the,
are the bots or the trolls.
And don't even give them a mic.
You,
you,
I don't even,
they'll request and I'll just boot them from the space I'd like you're not following anyone it's a brand new
account you didn't retweet the space yeah you don't you you didn't comment
anything you didn't like no there's no way this person is gonna come in and add
any real value he's gonna span a bunch of shit in your jumbotron and you're not
gonna be able to unsee it I have had that happen okay remove negativity and reset the room when that any of
those things do happen though change the title of the space to reflect the topic and build the space
so you know people will be looking for space topic or space titles and if it says you know some
a thing that they're interested in they're going to jump in so you can change it based off of the
topic i like to have a general starting topic like our starting you know it's the
DeFi space donkeys room and then when we're into it maybe it'll change it to
you know meme coin analysis right and meme coin shill and we'll have people
come up and talk about their mean coins but then maybe by the end of the space
I'll have named it last 15 minutes were our
security tips. You know what I mean? Oh, okay. If someone's going to go back and replay it,
what's the added value for the replay? And that's how I named the space. So that way it gets more
replays. Wow, you're brilliant, dude. I don't do any of those things. I never have a topic.
dude. I don't do any of those things. I never have a topic. Damn, Pop, are you listening to
all this? That's crazy. We've done over 200 spaces too, but I don't ever ask anybody to
redo anything with the room. Requote. I don't. Those are the hosting basics. And then these
are the space etiquette tips for just anyone in the space. If you're new to this space, listeners, this is good stuff for everybody.
Like, bookmark, share the room, and tag friends.
Tag large accounts that are interested in the topic, right?
Follow the host and co-host.
Follow all the speakers.
Retweet the room before you ask for a mic.
I would also follow all the verified listeners and other
relevant accounts in the room if you want to grow i interact with the pin posts you know support
get support so sometimes if there's not enough stuff up there i'll just pick a random guy next
to me you know go just attack their timeline see if there's anything i like comment yes right
that's a good idea.
Raise your hand to speak.
You have the feature.
Might as well use it.
Some people don't care for it or don't require you to.
And they just want you to time your interruption, which is fine.
But start with that.
It's a good starting spot.
Don't interrupt or speak over people.
Pretty obvious.
Listen more than you talk.
Just a general.
That's just good for life actually answer questions but don't take over the conversation like try to get as many
different perspectives today as possible i mean when it's your space and you're like
you know giving a presentation on the topic that's a little different you have a monologue
sometimes right where you have to cover um send the space to
friends uh or i said dm groups that may be interested and it's that's not the alpha anymore
really you want to send them to communities dm groups are that are dead um they get they hurt
you more than they help you in most cases uh for sharing stuff it's good for casual conversation
dm groups but most people use them
to share links and posts
and then they get shadow banned.
So shared things to space,
to friends or to communities on X.
I like to go straight to the text
or like the Telegram
or the Discord.
That's a good place
to share the space links.
And yeah, shout out to people in the projects
you want to grow with.
You know, people love to,
psychologically, people want to hear their name.
It wakes them up, it gets their attention,
and it makes them feel seen and validated.
So just using people's names, Mama Bear, is key.
That's brilliant.
Wow.
I feel like this is something Papa would really, right, babe?
Because you like lists and guidelines, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
What do you think about those?
You want to hear about the financial model I made for banks?
Here's one of those too.
It's funny about the whole like,
asking people to repost the room.
Cause after the space,
you can unretweet the room and clean up your timeline.
If you don't want to have it on your timeline.
Interesting. But if you're in a space space you might as well retweet it and and make everyone's experience more enjoyable more valid more likely to find like-minded you know connections and network
this is a networking app yeah it's true absolutely I don't, I never thought about it like that. Like, hey,
you can even undo the repost after you're out of the space. So.
And telling people like that, telling people that may get them to retweet it more because
you're right. I can just do that. I will do that. Like, you know, please undo it as soon as you
don't have the space. If you want to keep your timeline clean, I get it um but that's also why i have multiple accounts like this account is big because it
supports a lot of people right and my main my main d5 space donkeys account has like two like
twenty two hundred followers or something like that right because those right it's more it's
focused and it's supporting the people in the club right it's it's so that that timeline is
a little bit more clean like Like if I go to a
bunch of spaces in a day, I'll probably untweet most of them except for like my close friend's
spaces. Right. And that doesn't have the same effect on your account as deleting a tweet,
I don't think. Like you can undo a repost, but I don't think it's as detrimental to your account
as it would be like erasing a whole post.
Yeah, I mean, even when you erase a post,
if the post has less than a thousand views on it,
it's okay.
Oh, interesting.
What are your thoughts on people
that go and clean up their timelines,
that they go and like have these third-party apps
that go and clean up a bunch
of their shit what do you think about that well so so there's sometimes people will look down your
timeline and like could they get like on a electronic down the rabbit hole just like oh
what's tricky about or what did he do right right cleaning it up so there's not like because i'll
every like in 12 hours or the next day i'll sometimes repost a good post that i want to
make sure i'm seeing right but then afterwards i'll go undo it so it'll only be on my timeline
once so it'll save people time who are scrolling because if you're scrolling through someone's
timeline and you see the same thing over and over and over again you're gonna get bored and not go
back right right so cleaning it up so it looks presentable
after the fact can be done.
But you could also just have
multiple accounts and keep,
you know, like you have one account
for sharing everything,
one account for specifically
for the club
or one account specifically
for VFriend, you know,
like, you know,
I have seven accounts.
It's easy for me to say that,
I guess, right?
But I've got like 27 or 28
over all social medias.
It's like, wow. Don't DM me.
It's going to get lost.
So, but, but yeah, you could, I totally think it's good to clean it up.
The third party tools are good, especially if they don't get you shadow banned.
Sometimes they interact with the algo so much, they just get you shadow banned immediately.
So if you're trying to get monetized, I wouldn't be playing with any of those tools.
If you're done getting monetized, you I wouldn't be playing with any of those tools. You're done getting monetized.
You got to play like the safety algo path until you're monetized.
But getting monetized isn't worth it anymore.
Honestly, it's it's worth it if you're building a brand and you don't want to buy a gold check.
You don't you don't have that 20 grand to buy gold check and all the marketing and everything.
It's the poor man's advertising, because by being active enough to get monetized you get three to four times the reach and then
you don't have to pay for your check anymore so you've got a little bit extra funds for you know
marketing or whatnot right so like i'm not paying to be on twitter twitter's paying me to be here
but exactly it takes to get to that point is not necessarily worth it uh that's why i mean honestly 20 grand
to to get a gold check and now you have 10 grand of advertising you're gonna find your vibe very
very quickly because they're because it blasts you out on on this on the whole platform fairly quick
like you're gonna get lots of views and hopefully build your account up enough
that you will now have over 5,000 blue checks that are following you. In which case now you
get premium plus for free. If you've got 2,500 that are following you, you get a blue check
for free. So I'm at 4,300. So I'm just like 700 blue checks away from getting premium plus for free forever
i already get the premium for free right that's amazing i didn't know that
damn babe did you know that no i didn't i could change it next week though that's all that you
know yeah i know you can tell the algorithm definitely been hitting differently the last couple weeks.
And I'm not sure if I got demonetized because I did not get paid on the last payout.
Like what was it like 86% of other people?
Well, I get paid a day late for one, which is weird.
But also you've got to be over 100,000 like solid impressions from paying accounts to get your
paycheck pretty much oh interesting okay so so if you look over the last like two weeks or last week
and you see you're just under that threshold you'll know you'll probably get it next time
under the hundred thousand about a hundred impressions from, now this is the part though, it's hard to calculate,
is impressions from accounts that are paying. So you don't know how many blue checks that you have
that are verified and that are paying for that account are the ones that are commenting. If
you're getting a lot of comments from bots or... Right, then it doesn't matter either way. Yeah. So my last two weeks impressions is at 1.9 million. Um, and my verified follower is at 47, 17. So I'm at 49% total, but yeah, it's crazy.
You have plenty of impressions.
Yeah. I don't know.
I don't, I don't know I don't I don't know DM me a screenshot of your of your one week um
four week and three months one week four week and three months yeah one four and three okay
I can remember that I'll do that yeah just take a little screenshot and just DM it to me let me
see I'll just like look at it for a second. Yeah, that'd be awesome. Yeah.
I mean, I, and these tricks, man, I, I want to be here and just spread positivity and tricks. So the more support, the more I can do it. If you appreciate it, uh, consider subscribing because
I'm also giving away to my subscribers, um, stuff, not only just alpha and the positivity,
I think you probably got more than a dollar value from just this conversation. But I'm also airdropping stuff from my sponsors. So I've given away over $300
of stuff and I have only been paid $57 from my sponsors, from my subscribers so far. I have,
Twitter owes me like 140 bucks still. But still like that's, I'm able to give more than I,
than I received because of the sponsors and stuff. So it's one of the best dollars you can spend,
even if I wasn't telling you shit. It's definitely, I want to get my goals to get to like
5,000 subscribers. Um, so I can be sweeping floors, like mega sweeping floors and just
doing giveaways like with, with that to the subscribers and stuff.
Right.
How did you find sponsors?
I showed up for three years straight and then they started coming to me.
Nice.
That's awesome.
And then I realized, well, shit, if they're coming to me, I could probably start reaching out.
I could probably start reaching out.
Right.
No, absolutely.
So MetaRides came to me first and they said, oh, we're going to give you $600 in MetaRides for people who sign up for your Zouchella event in Miami.
For people who book the all-inclusive vacation.
Okay.
So that was my first sponsor, MetaRides, as seen in Forbes magazine.
They got a Rogue Bunnies partnership and a Tootsie partnership right now they're working on a couple
really cool things nice with their with their metacart their meta rides and then uh jazzy
from primates board club came over and um and gave me the next one and i actually just shared
it in the last space the skate decks that he made he made a six skate decks with art from fab quilt which made a caricature of my pfp
and then a caricature of the primates um tape and we put them on on a skate deck with like six
different colors so there's three of them left there's a yellow a blue and a rainbow one left
so i can show you which i'll show you those ones. That's amazing.
It sounds like you're really good at like marketing yourself though.
I have no more, I don't know how to do any of that.
So it's, it's been an interesting ride.
I can tell you that.
That's for sure.
But I'm always open to learning more and I'm excited.
I'm definitely going to go over and subscribe to you though.
I'm, I'm, I'm interested in that. So. I appreciate it. I do definitely going to go over and subscribe to you, though. I'm interested in that.
I appreciate it. I do.
AJ subscribed. We've got a couple subscribers in here.
AJ CryptoFam Radio is down there.
AJ is the best, dude. AJ is the best.
I adore AJ. In fact, I say that AJ is my community manager because he has brought so many amazing people into our life and in our space.
So he just doesn't know he's my community manager, but he is.
Yeah, definitely.
Up top, you can see those skate decks.
They are on chain.
They have an NFC chip in them and you register it on chain.
You can report it lost or stolen.
They fancy. That is fancy. That's really cool. And you register it on chain. You can report it lost or stolen. Shit.
That is fancy.
That's really cool.
I know we have.
Sorry, it's not showing up for me.
Let me go back out of here.
I hate it when that happens.
The skate decks.
Okay.
Now, are those little, like the mini ones?
Or is that an actual, like regular size?
Full size.
Okay.
Okay.
Nice.
That's cool.
I remember seeing, I don't know if, I don't know how old you are, but my boys used to
play with the little mini ones and oh my God, they would like put on these little bitty
and they had, oh my God, the amount of pieces that i stepped on and
vacuumed up and holy shit yeah that was crazy right like that's a real thing dude that's a
real thing oh yeah yeah i i had i i got really like ocd and organized when i was a kid because
of lego trauma you know you step on a couple Legos. You learn real quick. Yeah, absolutely. Oh, that's great. I love that. I'm going to share
a picture of our event. So we had, you can see my merch table that I set up because I had 30
sponsors. 20 of them were weed up because I had 30 sponsors.
20 of them were weed sponsors. I had over three grand in fudge and edible cookies and stuff to hand out to people.
It was amazing.
Wow.
That's amazing.
Cheech and Chong, my homies in Dreamland were a sponsor.
It was so cool.
Oh, there it is.
You can see all the things on the table it's it's so much stuff but you can see all the different skate decks on the wall
and we had a main stage and then a small inside stage i think there were 19 musicians came through
like 30 different artists and then a bunch more projects as well and I had in the end
I actually had I thought I had 30 I had 26 in the end there was a couple that that that weren't able
to make it or dropped out last minute right some did that in a very respectable way some kind of
just didn't show and that was really right but uh but you, you know, you can't win every time. Yeah, exactly.
But so in the comments, comments underneath those skate decks, you can see the table.
Awesome. With all the merch. That's awesome. Over like $8,000 in merch and stuff from sponsors.
thousand dollars in merch and stuff from sponsors. Oh wow, that's insane. Are you in California?
Oh, in Florida. Okay, nice. Wow, that's a lot of stuff. I'm watching your video.
Is that also something that you notice is that accounts that are doing videos are hitting really
good right now? I feel like videos are performing well right now.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So visual components are definitely an obvious ad.
You want to do a visual component with every tweet that you really want to get extra views.
Or if you're commenting on a viral post, a GIF or a fucking video, this is what you do is you take a reaction video of yourself doing different reactions like
right seriously and then you edit it down to exactly the smallest amount of like one second
and then a one second video will quickly play in repetition as people are scrolling
and you get you get credit for multiple views on your video while they scroll
and if they leave the scroll like on your video it could just get ranked up you know what i mean
like so that is like that is an output right there use a video or some kind of animation
um ai is so easy to make graphics now just use it grok will do it for you right
right no i know i am i've been messing around with Grok. I'm still not
very well versed in it, but I feel like I'm getting a little bit more comfortable.
It's really about prompting it. And I'm not very, what is that thing that you are, babe? Literal.
I'm not literal. And so it's difficult for me because, do you know what I mean? Like you have to be like very, you can't just say create a tree in a park.
It needs much, much more information.
So otherwise it's never going to.
And I think that's something I have a difficult time with anyway,
because I am a, I'm a very visual person and I'm very imaginative.
But in my imagination, I have a difficult time getting that into words and definitely not into art.
It's just, I don't know what that, I don't know.
It's okay, though.
Babs has taught me everything I am is perfect just the way I am.
But I love Babs.
But, yeah, that's been one of my challenges.
So, yeah, just some people are better at that.
But, man, I love everybody's art on here.
I feel like I'm constantly sharing everybody's art.
But that's something that brings me joy, you know.
So, I don't know.
And I've seen some accounts do really well with just doing quote reposting of other.
So, I encourage people to do that, too. do really well with just doing quote reposting of other
so I encourage people to do that too you know if you're just super busy or whatever it may be if you're needing content do that because it's good for
them and good for your account so yeah it's good stuff
good stuff. Yeah, and if you have a picture that you love to share, just use the crop tool. After
you share anything like three times in the algorithm, images included, they start to get
kind of muted, right? Oh, okay. So never share anything more than three different places.
If that happens, just crop it. Crop the thing just a little bit.
You can literally take a little bit off the side and make the picture look just different enough that it doesn't ding the algo.
Interesting.
Yeah, I had no idea.
Because, well, as you can tell, I'm sure a lot of people are talking about the GMGN posts, right?
Because those are all seen as manipulation.
So I can say I definitely posted the same picture over and over and over and over again
because it was my main profile picture.
But I have been getting away from that.
But I still would say even on my timeline today, I had to have posted probably the same one that I've posted a million other times so that's good to
know I had no idea so just even by a little bit of cropping or you know throw
it in to grok and say grok you know make this theme of and then whatever the
current day topic is your favorite color color, your mood, whatever, like any kind of small alteration would be enough.
So, I mean, that's why even cropping can work.
Right.
So, yeah.
Right.
I mean, it's just, it's basically, you know, they don't want, they don't want lazy, repetitive stuff.
They want it.
They want it.
They want it.
They want it.
They want organic, real conversation.
Organic, real conversation.
So this has become like the biggest networking opportunity.
And you can get paid for networking if you, you know, if you're doing it on the right, in the right ways.
But they keep changing the algorithm so people can't like, quote unquote, game the system.
It doesn't help that I'm out here like, here's the tricks.
Yeah.
Well, at least we have a small space not in here with 100 000 people but if we start talking about you know who this space will rug though oh don't you know it yeah absolutely the ai is
listening and there's a couple key words i can i've i found out how to crash spaces. Oh, okay. But I'm not going to do it, obviously.
There's no point in testing that theory.
Yeah, no, you're kidding.
It is kind of funny.
Yeah, definitely.
Babe, he's like a wealth of knowledge.
He's like a Buddha.
He is.
Actually, I...
Yeah, he's tricky Buddha. I actually told Papa earlier that he reminded me
of Buddha he was just sitting there just this poor man sometimes I come in hot to his office
I'm like this and this and this and my energy's just so high up there and he'll just sit there
quietly listening and he just puts his hands in his lap, folds his hands. And that's the way he sleeps too.
So I really do believe that you were a Buddha at some point.
So yeah,
I do.
I believe that.
Babs can believe it.
I'm Buddha.
Cause I smoke a lot of weed.
And cause that was my brother's PlayStation name.
His name was green Buddha on the PlayStation network.
And he had a PlayStation Network ID before me.
But everyone's always called me Tricky because I'll explain all the tricks.
If you know me long enough, you'll eventually just get to the point organically that you'll go, yeah, you're Tricky.
And so enough people have done that.
I roll with it.
So that's – and then we're brothers, So it makes sense to have the same last name.
And I'm definitely an advocate for cannabis. So I'm Tricky Buddha, PlayStation Network.
Um, and then that just, that never, just never went away.
Right. It's funny because I, um, I was also given me, given my name. So yeah, it's, it's,
um, really interesting.
Sorry, I was trying to think about this.
They are.
Especially if they're given to you.
You know?
Oh, you were?
Oh, shit.
That's awesome.
See, babe? I think Tricky Buddha is your friend, too.
I think he's your friend, too.
Yeah, Papa's very literal.
And that's been challenging for us, you know, because I have to try to figure out, like, what?
And, babe, tell them about your literal thing. I love it.
You're talking about the pro uh, the, the program or joke to going to the grocery store.
Yes. Sorry. I was on mute.
Okay. Yeah. So, so wife, um, basically tells her, uh, her programming husband,
She basically tells her programming husband, hey, go to the store and get a gallon of milk.
If they have eggs, give it a thousand.
So goes to the store, he comes back with 12 gallons of milk.
And she's like, why didn't you get 12 gallons of milk?
They have eggs.
Get it?
I was slow to that one, wasn't I? Shit. shit memer what do you think about that would you have gotten that
like seriously i don't know dude memer's kind of here but he's not here that's okay um yeah
papa's very funny i was switching the headphones so that she didn't even hear what Papa said.
Okay.
He's being very literal.
It's just what he does.
That's okay. How are you today,
Mamar? I haven't even been able to talk to you.
Oh, not too bad.
You know, busy day.
But I still managed to do my space. You sound tired.
I'm starting
to feel quite tired, yeah yeah i did my
space yeah yeah i bet you are i mean you've been up for how many hours already it's already the
end of your day yeah it's like one in the morning now oh god you're awesome
you're awesome yeah have you ever met tricky buddha before uh yeah tricky buddha came to my
space so that was cool oh let's go i think i've heard tricky before then but i haven't really
like had a full interaction so it's cool to uh know more you know nice i was stuck in a stupid
meeting believe me i would have rather been at your space.
I have to. So I do this Zoom call. I facilitate a Zoom meeting for our state once a month for mental health. And I have to, this lady and I, oh my God, there's just some people. Anyway,
so her and I, she likes to meet with me now the day before
so we can go over the agenda so that I know,
I already know, like, what links and what to put up,
but she struggles with it.
And then she wants me to show up to the Zoom call every month
at least a half an hour to 45 minutes early so we can go over it again.
And so I have to, like like I have to work on my patience
I'm gonna say you got a lot
Of patience mama because I couldn't
Deal with that
Definitely not as patient as papa
But yeah
Although I say stuff like that but then I would
Probably just do it
You totally would
You totally would
I just like to pretend that i've
got it in me to be yeah i have no fucking patience for this i gotta go yeah exactly
no that's awesome that's good yeah it's good it's so um everything is so blooming outside i was
on the phone with her too and she was like wheezing,
and I'm like, are you okay?
And she was like, my allergies are so bad.
And I was like, holy shit, dude.
I told her, I was like, you need to get some honey.
I just need to.
Papa got me the blackberry honey.
Yes, exactly.
Yep.
It's definitely that time of year though.
So I don't know.
I love all the bees and all the things that are growing.
Makes me happy.
My garden's just full of dandelions this year.
It's awful.
But I noticed everyone around me is the same.
So, I don't know if something happened.
Because I was like, I looked at my neighbors, that's the same.
And I've been looking as I go for a walk around the town.
A lot of the gardens are the same.
I'm like, yeah, something definitely happened with the dandelions in the winter they definitely seeded
everywhere for some reason sometimes i'm like driving and i see like a bunch of it looks like
snow but it's not they're just little petals and i'm like oh my god that's so beautiful. But then I'm like, oh god, maybe it's not. So, yeah, it's good stuff.
Go with Mims.
Alrighty then.
Tricky, you have your hand up.
So, you and Jed just subscribed.
I appreciate you so much.
Jed has a nice pinned tweet.
It makes it easy for me to go grab it, quote retweet it, and say,
hey, follow this guy. Also, your pin tweet is prime real estate. Every time you're in a space,
they click on your profile or you have to see your comment and they click on your profile,
they're going to come and see that pin tweet. So take advantage of that pin tweet property space.
Make something that
describes your account your vibe what you're looking for whatever your goal is
and then reply to it with any relevant links any link that leads outside of
Twitter will get you muted in the algo so you want to do it in a separate reply
to the main post not in the post itself same thing goes with you're doing a good
job you don't have any links in your bio you're doing a good job you don't have
any links in your bio you have a special section under the bio that is just for website links so
you want to use that for anything like that but um but yeah make yourself a good pin tweet so i
can go share it out but i went ahead and i made you guys a quote retweet uh hopefully you'll get
some more followers from the defy space donkeys and other people trying to get monetized You can follow them back and raid with us if you want to get more impressions and stuff.
You said you were monetized, right?
You just didn't get paid the last time.
Yeah, so I am monetized.
This was just the first time I had not received a payment.
So and it was a huge like it was across the board.
It wasn't just me.
So I'm not sure if I was considered.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Engagement farming, I think, is probably what we got slammed for.
So I'm not sure that I've lost that monetization.
I haven't received anything saying otherwise.
But tomorrow, of course, we'll be telling to see how it goes.
But engagement wise, it's slammed down for sure.
For max engagement, I find large accounts in your niche that have really good traction on their posts. Their normal posts get good traction, like in the millions. You want to find an account with
millions of followers to do this with. And then you reply early with the notifications on.
You reply early to their posts and then reply to like two more comments that are leaving comments.
Reply to those comments as well.
Right.
So now you've got a total of three replies.
You have one that's directly and then two that are replying to replies, hoping that those spark conversations.
directly and then two that are replying to replies hoping that those spark conversations
sometimes you can spark a conversation with other people commenting on your comment and like they'll
be like people defending you and people attacking you on your reply and you're literally doing
anything you're just like sitting back yeah and then and here's the latest one you can't do it too much don't abuse it but you can tag large automated accounts
with ai bots or ai agents that are attached to them and they will auto respond you so you can
ask grok perplexity um just positivity top hat cat uh those four right next time you want to
really send something out to get more traction and you know you posted really early on one of these large accounts, potentially viral topic, that's when you use it.
You tag all four of them and you ask them questions between the tags and they start talking to each other under your reply and it just boosts the shit out of your thing.
That's awesome. So you said perplexity,
top hat cat, grok, and what was the other one? Positivity. It's like, I think it's like just positivity. You should type in positivity when you find out what it is. Yeah. Cause I have done
that with grok before. More of just like, can you give me some context kind of thing?
But I've never heard of the positivity account or the perplex.
It's called Live Positively, Power of Positivity.
And it's a gold check account, but it's automated gold check.
Ah, I see.
I am following them.
Okay.
Nice.
Yeah.
And that's how I had taught everybody to do their monetization was to go
hit those big accounts, the money posting. But I can tell you from my own account and from a couple
accounts that I'm working right now, the reach has just plummeted, even on those really big quote
money post accounts. So I mean, you can even can even go see the power of positivity an hour ago.
They got 2.7 thousand impressions, 51 likes, 10 reposts and only two comments.
Like if you go and look at these accounts, they are really slammed down as well,
which then in turn is affecting people on their impressions.
Yeah, so you don't want to do it too much.
But when you want like a little boost off of like one thing
is when you want to try to do that.
And that's the problem too, though.
If they interact too much with people's stuff,
then they get shadow banned.
And then you get shadow banned for interacting with them.
But you can tag them and it doesn't really count as an interaction.
Now, if you go back and forth with them, it counts as an interaction.
But I think you can tag them and they can leave a comment on you and it won't be like terrible.
Does that make sense?
Oh, interesting.
Yeah, no, for sure.
Yeah, that definitely makes sense.
Their account is definitely shadow banned because they're getting tagged by all these different people,
whoever they want to ask a question, right?
Right, right.
So there's no way around that part.
But yeah, this is how, I mean, it's a goal check account, though, a paying account that's commenting on your stuff is what it comes down to.
Right.
And people need to prioritize those and know that those are like the creme de la creme, right?
So if you
get those those gold check marks and are interacting with you that's good shit so gold
check is way way better than a hundred or a multi-million uh unverified account yeah it's
crazy do you pay for one of those gold check marks on one of your accounts too i don't know
i've got friends that have gold checks um so if i want any point if i need to for one of those gold check marks on one of your accounts too? No, I don't. I've got friends that have gold checks.
So if I need to use any of those features, I'll just ask them to do it.
I just tag them.
Nice.
It's funny because probably the most thing I would be most excited about is changing my PFP over and over and over.
Right.
So this is a little check for that.
If you have a blue check, when you change it, it takes away your check.
Then immediately sign completely out of Twitter and sign back in to verify that you're a human.
And it'll give you your check back faster.
Yeah, another way that we've been doing that is by locking the account for 20 minutes and then unlocking it.
And it does the same type of thing, which is really cool.
Yeah, it's just very fine that you're actually a person.
Right.
Somebody didn't take you over.
Yeah.
Yeah, I feel like Twitter's been replacing those blue check marks way faster, I would say for the last month, anyhow, I've
noticed that. So, um, but I also, we were talking about yesterday about how much I just think that
it affects, um, people's reach because people learn who you are by your PFP, not only by your
PFP, by your name. Um, so I think that that has been one of my challenges too, you know, by continuing,
because I'm on my third, one, two, three, yeah, fourth PFP, probably in the last however long
since I've been on X. And I don't know, I feel like some people just really knew me as this PFP
and then it, you know what I I mean? I don't know.
Gary V did give me this so I could not resist.
Oh, yeah. I would have done the same.
Oh, excuse me.
Go ahead, Babs.
Yeah, you're good.
Oh, hi, Babs.
Hey there.
How are you guys?
Enjoying the conversation listening to you all. Lots of good advice from Tricky Buddha. There was one thing though that I just was like, and it's still coming
back to me. So I thought I better, I better step up and say, so there was a part of the conversation was about finding somebody that you like
copying them so that you can be like them or that you can be them no no imagine you find someone who
is just an awesome human like you basically define what an awesome human is in your brain
like the characteristics and qualities that it takes to be an awesome human
and then just start amplifying all embody those traits and if you continuously do things that embody those traits that just becomes your that becomes your habit and your habit is your
personality and that it actually rewires your brain to become that person that you would want
to be friends with and that person that you would want to be friends with and that person that you would want to be friends with, unless you're a terrible judge of character, other people will like it.
Okay. Okay. Okay. I guess that makes some sense to me. That makes more sense than what I was
thinking you were saying. Um, so for me, sometimes I think we get caught up in not, um,
We get caught up in not being who we are because we think we have to be someone else.
And if we can lean into the parts of us that we really appreciate this world versus trying to be something that we're not.
And not saying that you're saying that exactly, but I think it could lean towards that.
So I guess I would just say the little caveat of don't give up on who you are and this unique being, this unique expression of whatever you are into this world.
Yeah, so that was the one little thing that I kind of wanted to just bring up.
That is the caveat because by being you, you'll find your vibe.
And being you is sustainable.
Everything else, if you're putting on an act, then it's going to burn you out.
everything else if you're putting on an act then it's gonna burn you out but by
making conscious efforts to create habits that and that embody the type of
person you want to be around other people will also want to be around you
and then your life can kind of open up things can change rapidly at that point
it's not about and it's kind of like fake it till you make it, but, but not like buying expensive shit.
It's a mentality, right?
It's fake it till you make it because, well, you, you go to a gym when you're being a bodybuilder,
right?
And you don't have, and when you first start, you're not having muscles, right?
You're not really faking it till you make it, but that's what you do.
It's what you work out.
You do all the things that the bodybuilders do, right?
Until eventually you are just one of them because you You do all the things that the bodybuilders do, right? Until eventually
you are just one of them because you've been to the gym for two years because you've been eating
all that food because you've been doing all the right exercises. Now you are a bodybuilder,
right? But that can go with everything. Your brain is the muscle that you're exercising here.
And the more you keep that thought thought you'll be better at that thought
and that is becomes who your personality is so if it's positive you're more
positive if it's negative you're more negative if it's more ambitious you know
if it like so what's your ultimate goal you know and that's when you said that's
when you think about okay well what who is the awesome person that I would want
to be around or want to work with? And usually what you think is awesome has similar goals.
And so that's kind of like a simple way of breaking it down.
It's like, imagine you meet somebody who's awesome.
What traits do they have that make them an awesome person you would want to be around,
work with, have in your life?
And if you can break that down, then you can make good habits.
Yeah, I get where you're coming from.
But it is awkward at first.
Yeah, it's awkward.
And you are kind of,
there is an element of just
of kind of acting at very first
because you're locked into your old patterns still.
You have to break those old patterns.
And then there's a whole bunch of ways
you can break old patterns.
I mean, anything from psilocybin to traumatic events to complete educational experiences, training for 12 weeks.
So there's a lot of different ways you can modify your brain. Psychology is still like, you know,
developing more techniques and tactics and insights every single month. You know, I constantly see
helpful tips like that. Yeah, a hundred percent. There's,
there's lots of ways that you can adjust. And we were just talking about neuroplasticity of your
brain, which is what kind of what you're talking about, the ability to, to rechange your brain
the other day. Yeah. It's just the, the, for me, it's also about just being gentle with yourself
as you're faking it till you make it, that you're
okay the way that you are. And that doesn't mean that we don't improve and grow and change,
but just embracing like your humanness, your being, the place that you're starting from.
The rest of it is just, it is like for me, the way that I look at life,
it's, it's about being here and having fun while we're on this journey of being a, of being a
human, you know, having this human experience. Enjoy your uniqueness, but positivity is the
ultimate. That's the thing where you're faking it till you make it. Everything else is just,
that's nonsense. The part you fake till you make it is the positivity and then everything else starts to kind of to
come together with it with that positivity right being but being yourself is very key very very
key if you're not your own unique weird self you're not going to find people who really appreciate
that and once you find people who appreciate you for you, that's another level of security and anti-anxiety. It's going to give you more
mental freedom, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So it's exciting stuff. It's all great stuff.
And Mama Bear, I just wanted to share something because I haven't been able to share with
somebody. I will. I have an excellent with my my husband but he didn't say much um I got you know I don't know if I told you but I applied to be a speaker at
NFT um New York and I got in oh man that's so exciting I got the email today I was like
because it was like my friend I just had this feeling like because this was the third round
it was kind of like this secret link to get in to try and apply because they already had closed the speaker application.
And I just said, OK, this is before I went on vacation.
I was like, I'm just going to do it. I'm just going to go. I'm going to do it.
I'm going to put in my what I want to talk about and who I am and, you know, talking about mindfulness, having mindful communities, how that helps with NFT communities,
how being a mindful founder is so much better
than being just one who's chasing FOMO, that for investing.
Anyway, so I just put it out there.
Me and my AI worked on it, and I just put it out there,
and I just got the notification today.
I got in.
Woo-hoo!
That's so exciting.
Congratulations.
Huge congratulations.
So that is at the ETH NYC?
Yeah, at the NFT NYC.
Yep.
NFT NYC.
When is that, actually?
That one is in June, end of June.
So, yeah.
Wow.
So I'm super excited. So I thought thought I'm going to share with mama.
So I'm happy. I love that so much for you. That makes me so happy. Are you,
so obviously you're going to be going there. Are the, were you able to get something? Cause I know
it's, it's a pretty big event, right? Like for your stay and everything. Yeah, I found a, I just,
I made him a a commitment I talked to
my husband he said you know what even if you don't get the speaker spot just go because I felt like
well you know how we lead we kind of lead with where our where we're feeling like flow is going
and it felt like yes go so I I bought I got an Airbnb I bought the tickets all on noon without
you know without finding out um you know if, if I got a speaker spot or not.
My friend, I had a friend today said, hey, I got a discount ticket.
I want to give it to you.
And so I said, let me just go check to see if I got the speaker thing.
And yeah, so I did.
It was so cool.
So I thought I knew you'd be happy with me.
Heck yeah.
I'm so happy for you.
That's so exciting.
Are you going to have any of it like recorded that would be so cool I think they must and I might be on a panel I have
no idea I submitted two different talks and um I said I could do a solo or I could do a panel talk
I'm happy to do at either um and I'm just excited to bring this whole concept of being present, being mindful, being
you don't have to go with all the FOMO, either as a founder or as a, you know, as an investor or
collector in this space. So I'm super excited to be able to bring that. And yeah, so I wanted to
bring it to my presently present family. Hell yeah.
We're super excited for you.
Right, babe?
Yes, we are.
Yay.
Yeah, so if anybody in the family is going to be going, let me know.
We'll get together.
Yeah, it will be fun.
That would be awesome.
I know.
I know I've heard a lot of people start talking about it.
It's always exciting when there's going to be such a big event. And you went to the last one.
Gosh, where was that? Was it in Florida? That was in Florida, right?
Yeah, I went to the Art Basel.
Art Basel, that's right.
Too bad we didn't know each other then. Dang it.
I know. It sounds like you had a banger of an event. It was great.
It's a good thing it's not a recorded space.
There's nobody here that's going to tell on me, right?
So there were people having sex backstage.
There was a whole bunch of crazy stories I heard about.
Like after the fact, I was just like, damn, we threw a party.
That was a banger, wasn't it?
Yeah, those are the, yeah, i i usually um yeah my little roommates i was
i was literally oh my gosh yeah i was i was one of those ones who like i got there at the beginning
of all of those big parties and then i just kind of like all right around 11 o'clock 12 o'clock
when things started getting crazy i said it's time for this old lady to go.
So I went to bed early.
That was that.
You were that gif that the Homer Simpson where he slowly goes back into the bush.
I was.
Yeah.
I mean, and also I was also there by myself as a single woman. So it's also like it gets a little cray cray.
So it's like time for
me to just kind of go before things get to you know so yeah that's true no that's awesome
tricky buddha are you also going to the nyc event i was gonna i was trying to get some sponsors to
get it all worked out uh but i don't know if it's gonna happen right now I I've got like a couple people who are like yeah no problem but yeah I mean I don't know
it's all I lost a lot of faith in some people that last to be honest like
there was a couple people who kind of left me high and dry and it ended up
costing me a lot more because of it so if they don't locked in in advance I'm
not I can't I can't do it but um
because money's kind of tight and i'm trying to like move and all kinds of things it's just a
terrible time to sell crypto right so i am yeah i mean the reality is like i'm super efficient when
i'm functional but i most of the time am like, like, chronically ill. So, like, yesterday I put in 30 hours of microphone time in 10 hours.
Plus I did, like, a couple doctor's appointments and, like, a couple other meetings at the same time.
Like, I worked, like, a 40-hour work day yesterday in, like, an 11-hour period.
Holy crap.
Is it when you feel good that's when you have to do it kind of thing?
I mean, the thing is when I feel good, I'm like, okay, I feel good. I'm going to fucking get it.
Like let's go. Right. Right. And I just go hard. And, um, because I don't know what I'm going to
feel like tomorrow or the next day. And like my wife's been taking care of me and I mean,
I went through this downward spiral for like 10 years, okay? I'm four years past that downward spiral, and I'm on the upswing,
but like there's still not enough good time in the day.
That's just the reality of the situation, right?
So I feel bad that like, I mean, if I was maybe more selfish,
that would have helped too, but I give like a lot back to the community.
And so my wife has just like been supporting me and the community is basically just building
the brand, but not like I'm not getting anything out of Web3, to be honest, like besides like
the positivity and the network and the experiences.
And for the first three years, there wasn't any like I was stuck at home.
So there weren't really any experiences that was coming out of it and then um i didn't have sponsors either because i wasn't
like i wasn't a legend yet you know fair fair they didn't know who i was uh but now they know
who i am i'm getting sponsors everything is kind of picking up and i'm doing a lot more events i
did zout so three years ago in art basil i put in some photography by the way i'm a photographer i never
talk about my own shit anyway oh nice so three years ago i i submitted a self-portrait in
photography for art basil and i got in i wasn't able to make it physically the following year
for art basil in miami because i'm in orlando i went with jaden violet from raver realm and ape reunion and
goonies there's some pretty big um projects and i was i ended up bartending the whole time at the
breath the rave and it was a movie it was amazing um afterwards we went to the house of sex and it
was like i got 450 dollars of tickets for doing my intro just convincing him i belong there that was
amazing too like I just
walk up to the rope everyone's scanning these $150 tickets I just walk up to the velvet rope with my
wife and Sarah Faye with me and I go it's Tricky Buddha from DeFi Space Donkeys I was with Jaden
Violet throwing a rave and he said this is the place to be so here i am and they were they just like all right and they let me in and i looked i looked back at my wife and i'm like that just worked oh my god and i think
it was just the confidence you know but i had been recognized already a couple times that day so i was
just like fucking buzzing and then uh so then this last december was my second year of hosting an event. And we had, I had been to NFT NYC because, uh,
I was invited to a bunch of places there.
I went to like 15 different events where I was a guest at.
I got into the main event for free.
Clay John gave me his tickets for NFT NYC, like $1,300 tickets.
So me and my buddy Trey got to go to like everything.
And it was so epic. We were, we were just like $1,300 tickets. So me and my buddy Trey got to go to like everything. And it was so epic.
We were, we were just like, dude, when's the next event?
We got to do another one.
And my buddies all said, well, Miami, well, it's like Zaucella is like,
we were planning for doing Zaucella.
And I was like,
what if we just get everyone to collaborate on that event instead of doing
collaborate on that event instead of doing our own like event like what if we just got everybody
our own like event?
Like what if we just got everybody involved?
involved and so then i proceeded to just bring in massive amount like every day every week there was
a meeting and i'd bring in like another two or three communities to like collaborate with and
it just ended up getting massive it was so cool and we got a mansion that was like five or six bedrooms um it was had its own pool it was
amazing i and i cooked for everybody i'm actually a really good chef so i cooked for everybody
being able to silence a room with 35 dgens in it with a plate of nachos
i got you know i'm a good girl that hits different right so that was like my third event and now I'm like I'm opened in more events um my health has been
improving a lot so I'm not like just stuck stuck at home uh I never was that was never part of the
the deal with my club I was thinking you know we'll do metaverse events because i could be home and active but i mean crones is a
son of a so uh you know i it was hard to get to this point and now i'm just making the most out
of everything that's it's absolutely crazy so i hope i can go to this next one right yeah i don't
know everything's kind of up in the air right this second. You know, if Bitcoin was 130, my sponsors would have already been about the tickets.
Crypto Magazine might send me.
I got like four people that might send me,
but, you know, we'll see.
I think that's awesome.
It's cool that you have people, you know,
that will do that for you.
But obviously they see the value in you as
well so that's great yeah i actually um did you know that oh you are no i didn't they have a new
platform too they just launched they just launched liquid nf okay it's like it's an nft launch
platform that locks in half the sale and liquidity for that NFT.
And it grows with every transaction on the platform, not just with the collection.
So it's kind of like, you know, getting a piece of their platform by launching an NFT early.
And then they market for you.
So a couple of my artist friends have gone over there and had some really good success with way more traction because you know crypto magazines is
marketing for them and they just started up their print publication again too they was print and
digital and then it went digital for a while while they're like getting like ironing out some contract
disputes now their contracts are up and they're they're printing in america i believe so uh yeah
we're back up and running and um that's just part of the part of the iceberg, man.
There's so much.
I'm going to I'm going to post my photography next.
But let's say hi to a big man.
What's up, big man?
Oh, hello, Mama Bear.
Sorry, I didn't mean to take no light away from anybody.
I'm just I'm presently present.
I am just here.
We just came over from a Dragon Punk space.
They do that thing on Thursday. A little narration at the end. It's always awesome. I love it.
But I love to show some love. You're always out here, and I love what you do.
I appreciate you, big man. I know. You're always shouting me out. You're the best.
That's right. Dragon Punk. How did their space go? Such a great project.
The first one, Rugged. Actually, it's kind of a ritual now.
If it doesn't Rugged halfway through where the audience can't hear you,
I'm almost scared that something really deep's happening.
You know, it's one of those situations.
But we popped it back up, and it went through.
I actually wonder if there's, you know,
I know that there's runs at the same time ours does.
And if that's the case, we always have space issues as well.
I'm like, maybe there's something other than just the fact that it's X,
but maybe there's something in the fact that maybe there's something going on
at this certain time that, you know, has some more X instability.
I think about, well, I mean, has some more X instability. Oh.
I think about, well, I mean, because the timing, right,
especially, like, when it rolls over, you might be right.
Yeah, this is rush hour for our servers, yeah.
Yeah, like, that's what I was thinking.
This is midnight UTC.
So if they've got, like, daily jobs that run on the back end
or something like that, I mean, I run on the back end or something like that i mean i know that their
back end is like very you know distributed and it doesn't it's you know a lot bigger than just a
simple one server or anything like that but i could very much see that there's a lot else
going on at that time and so who knows yeah that's so valid papa baron and think about it for a second
i thought you were coming out with like a guilty conscience thing.
Like you're rugging the space over there.
You'd be like, come on, guys, let's go.
Let's go to Mama Bear's space.
Like, no, but you're totally right about that.
That's crazy.
I didn't think about it.
Papa wouldn't do that if I tried to pay him to, big man.
I've tried to ask him to do naughty things with his brain, and he won't.
Even, you know, to be helpful, but he won't do it.
He's too noble.
He's my noble man.
Got to appreciate that.
I'm your noble steed.
You're my noble steed.
That could go way wrong.
I was going to say something good about that,
but now I don't know if I should even go anywhere near that.
I know.
I'm not sure if I should go near that one.
Papa is just, whoa, bro.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Look, I'm even talking to you like you're a noble steed, babe.
Whoa.
Whoa.
No, we actually saw a truck truck and it had hay in it and papa's like
can you take a picture of that for me i'm like why he's like because i want to send it to
it's to my daughter's boyfriend so he can send it and say hey this man if you guys are driving
down the road and he ever sees hay he will not stop saying hey until you say it back to him.
And I got to do it all in like a tricky little way too.
Hey.
Hey.
Yeah, exactly.
And he won't stop.
And then I know to look around and I'm like, okay, there's fucking hay.
Yeah.
So this time of year, the spring, we see a lot of hay and Papa is just on one at all times.
So, um, yeah.
So we know why the chicken, chicken wants to cross the road.
Do you have any good hay jokes?
That's a good question.
Um, not offhand.
I don't.
Don't worry.
You just gave him a new.
May.
Oh God. I was going to say, you just gave him a new... Hold on, hold on. May. Oh, God.
I was going to say, you just gave him a new mission, big man.
Yep.
All right.
Up top, there are four images.
Which ones are AI and which ones are raw, unedited photos?
Okay.
Which ones are AI and which ones are unedited? Wait, unedited? I would think they would all be edited, right? So you mean like which ones are like actual and which ones are AI?
There could be one that's edited. There could be one that's completely raw with no edit. There could be an AI.
with no edit there could be an AI. Okay so I'm gonna say for me it's gonna be the
light down at the bottom left is real and I'm gonna say that the flower that
one looks real to me too and then the two on the right look edited
edited? that's my answer
or AI sorry
AI so you think that bottom left one
is a real raw photograph
I do
you are correct
damn I love it when I'm right
can you say that one more time? no I'm just joking
I'll just joking.
I'll just tear off the band-aid.
They're all raw, unedited photographs.
Oh, that's dope. So did you put like a black light?
There's no AI, no extra lighting, no edit, no cut, no filter, no nothing.
This is literally hold my iPhone up and click the button.
Dope.
Even the mushrooms?
I framed them all perfectly at the right time in the right place.
The mushrooms are Avatar World and Disney.
Oh, shit.
Okay.
That's cool.
I was like, bro, how'd you get this to grow?
Those are like three or four feet tall, those big mushrooms.
The top right is a bouquet of orchids I got my wife for her birthday.
The bottom left is a laser light that was at in Vegas and I was just like
there's no way that's gonna come out in a photo and it did and then the top top
left is a little one I call stop and smell which I give out as a birthday
card for a lot of people so yeah but they're all part of the well not all of
them actually that the diagonal top and bottom left, top right, bottom left,
those are part of my super rare singles collection.
That's like a 1.69 ETH floor.
And then the top left and bottom right,
those are part of the 10,000 limited edition collection,
where there's 10,000 copies of that.
Kind of like a meme coin.
It's like a meme NFT.
But they're tradable for raffle tickets for different events and different things. where there's 10,000 copies of that. Kind of like a meme coin. It's like a meme NFT.
But they are tradable for raffle tickets for different events and different things.
So they kind of have like a utility
for something.
Right.
Oh, that's awesome.
I love that.
Damn, Tricky.
You got all the tricks, bro.
That's awesome.
He's like, I know.
That's why I got that dope-ass name.
Yes, Babs.
I just got to say goodnight.
I got to go finish dinner for the family.
Oh, you're good.
I was actually just about to close this up anyhow.
I've got class in 20 minutes, and I have to be there on time.
Yes, ma'am.
And last night, I went straight from the space into there, and. I missed the first part because I had to run to the restroom.
So I was like, fuck it.
I'm getting off a little bit early tonight so I can.
I'm going to be a badass trader, Babs.
I don't know if you know that.
But I'm in.
I'm over in the Smoking Perps University.
And I'm going to nail this.
I am.
I bet you will.
You got this, girly.
I do.
And then I'll sit down and show you.
All right. You know, I was an accredited investor and day trader. I'm not was, but still am,
you know, for stocks. And then I came over to crypto. And that was one of my degrees as I got
in finance at University of Central Florida. I was paid to go to college. I just took all the classes. It was kind of fun. That's awesome.
Yeah.
I'm definitely all about doing that trend analysis.
It's funny over here.
You can't do a trend analysis with a meme coin, people.
God damn it.
Anyway.
Yeah.
So I actually was, I was actually in meme coins like everybody.
And then now I'm over at the Smoke and Perps University and we do it on
Discord. It's actually held by TWAP, who's actually my son, and CJ. And so what they're
doing over there is they're teaching us how to trade its perpetuals, right? So we sit there and
we're learning about charting and we're learning about how to draw on and how to find patterns
and what a candle is.
A lot of people don't even know what a candle is.
I mean, yeah, you can see there's red candles and green candles, but where does it end?
You know, like, what is this?
It's a wick, you know?
So I'm learning all of this new lingo and I feel like I'm very far behind, but I'm not,
I'm just trying to be gentle with myself, you know, because everybody has to learn at some point. And it's dope because, I don't know, he's offering a lot to it. So I
appreciate that. So I don't know. I told Papa, I know T-WAP, he's like, no, mom, you don't got to
pay. And I'm like, no, I want to pay. Probably not very happy for Papa's pockets, but I wanted
to pay so that I could be held accountable.
Do you know what I mean?
Like it's different when you pay for a service,
it's different.
It feels different.
It's like,
okay,
this is something I paid for.
I want to get something out of it.
So yeah,
that is absolute truth.
You guys,
I had Papa pay for my tuition.
Well,
my Monday,
Wednesday,
I give away advice for free for two hours, 4 to 6 p.m.
And then also, if you're a DeFi space donkey, you get first dibs on those questions.
So if there's DeFi space donkeys asking questions, we may never get to everybody.
But we usually get to everybody.
You can always just ask stuff on my content, too.
And I'll probably just answer you because I'm nice.
But yeah.
That's awesome.
You don't even have to pay the $325 hourly rate.
You could have a donkey and that's an hour or you can just show up.
So you have the best of worlds when you do have questions later on.
And you want to know what interbank confidence is how i took the uh the rate that the banks were
using or not the bait sorry the equation that the banks were using to determine stock price movement
in 2007 the guy won a nobel prize in finance for this model but it didn't determine the subprime
mortgage crash so i made a new factor called interbank confidence which is basically taking
the discrepancy between the risk-free rate
that banks can get money from the government and the rate that they could get money from each other,
like the London interbank offer rate. So when that disparity gets bigger,
it's because the banks don't trust each other. They would rather just go to the government,
right? If it becomes too big, that's a red flag
because all the industry does the same stuff together.
They know that there's power in numbers as an industry
and that they can't just shut down the entire banking industry
and fine them all into bankruptcy.
That wouldn't be good for these systems.
So if they all are doing the same bad shit together,
the government gives them some leeway
and a little bit of a forgiveness period
when they do find out
hey, you shouldn't be doing that thing.
But if that number gets big
it's because they're like, hey, we know you're doing
sketchy shit because we're also
doing sketchy shit. But the number
still gets bigger. So
when the gap gets too big
there's a financial collapse like every
fucking time. And I figured that out and I
proved it with a regression analysis and
fucking made a financial model and it was more efficient than the one that
won the Nobel prize.
And I was like,
shit,
they're just going to take 20% out of everyone's 401ks.
So I buried it guys and just traded on it my own self for like 10 years
before I gave it to the banks.
So you're welcome for not that not fucking all your 401ks.
Yes, thank you.
We appreciate you.
Tricky, it's been an absolute pleasure.
I hope to see you again.
I will definitely be using your tips and tricks.
I did also send you my analytics.
I don't know if that's the right part, but I sent you that part.
Again, I appreciate you.
It was lovely to meet you.
And I know we've crossed paths, but actually we'll sit here and chop it up.
So everybody, we're going to close out the space.
Yeah, we'll be back here tomorrow.
Same time, same place.
Your impressions are great.
Doing the same thing.
I don't know what to tell you, bro.
I had them up to $21 million million and then I stopped with the impressions.
So yeah, my three month was at 21 million.
So I am an impression queen.
But, you know, I started working on other accounts and not on my own.
What do we call that?
Impressive.
It's very impressive.
All right.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I knew Papa would like that.
You're good.
You're good, you're good.
All right, Papa, you want to close this out?
Yes, but first I need to ask a question.
Yes, babe.
Okay.
Why did the farmer's wife take hay down to the jail? Why did she take hay down to the jail why did she take hay down to the jail yeah bro I don't know
because he had to make bail I do I love that you know you should close out every space
with one of your jokes. Let's make that a thing.
Maybe. No, I'm serious.
Let's do that. Yep.
We support you and your jokes. If it gets people to
leave, run with it.
There you go.
Alright, well...
I'm joking. I love it. I love a pop.
No, I know you're just... Anyhow. Well, I'm joking. I love it. I love a pop. No, I, I, I know you just, but anyhow. All right. Well, you guys,
thank you guys all for showing up today and you know, Hey,
I'll think of another one for tomorrow. How's that? That'd be,
we'll be here 4 PM Papa standard time or seven o'clock on the East coast.
And until then do something kind for yourself
and make sure you
give a little love to everyone.
And always
move with intention.
We'll see you tomorrow. Thank you.
