These guys were guys that were freelance guys that worked for Showtime at the time or something like that. I literally got up from my fucking seat, went back there, kicked the fucking door of the truck open. And I said, you motherfuckers, you ever do that again and I'll fire every fucking one of you. Let's just put it this way.

I ended up firing every one of them anyway and going with a whole new crew. But these were the type of things that early on, there's so much stuff. I mean, I could sit here for fucking... three days and walk you through all the stuff that used to go on back in those days uh But it was the wild, wild west, man.

Well, that's the thing too. I mean, in the early days, there was two employees, me and another girl that worked for me, for my company before I started doing this. And then we slowly started to bring people on and you start to build a team. And then before you know it, we had 10 people. I mean, we used to do our Christmas parties back then too.

There'd be eight to 10 people at our Christmas party, you know? Um, But a lot of it is you learn as you go. You know what me and the Fertittas knew about production when we bought this UFC? I want to say we had two or three weeks to pull off an event. This is what we knew about production. Really? Jack shit. So we had to dive in and we had to learn it. We had to figure it out.

And we knew what we wanted. We knew what we liked. We knew what we were looking for. It's just about building a good team. And I think that's one of the things if you want to – Talk about what I've accomplished in the last 25 years of my life. I've been really good at building teams.

Well, you have to have the vision. Without the vision, there's nothing. So that's sort of what I do. Yeah. I am the vision part of this thing. We're going to open a PI in Mexico. We're going to do this. We're going to do that. And then you build the team to come in and help execute.

Well, the secret to success, I would say, first of all, is passion and consistency. You have to love what you do. You have to get up every day. I get here every day at 9.30 in the morning. When we sold... In 2016, a lot of people in the company made a lot of money and they all took off and they retired, right? Other than the Fertittas, I made the most money. I'm still here.
