I can get some cash flow to run the app. And then the only risk is like... a lot of things go wrong. Like the market goes down, I don't know, like 70%. So then my, you know, any stock that I have is worth nothing. And like, you know, all my cash is at zero because of inflation and the pot, everyone stops podcasting or goes uses free things.

Like I can't count the number of scenarios that would have to go wrong for this to be like really bad decision. And so from that standpoint, I'm like, if all that stuff goes wrong, no matter what I'm doing, I'm probably going to be in a little bit of, all of us are going to be in a rough spot. If it gets, if all these industries, you know, collapse, we've got bigger problems.

So I was like, I'm just going to, for once in my life, like take a little bit of a bet. But I would say overall, it's not as big of a gamble as box out from like a purely money standpoint, because technically I haven't gambled anything. I've only gambled like possibly having to pay it off.

early like myself personally and that wouldn't be fun or you know having to do that when the asset goes to zero something like that so it's like well i really made a pretty big mistake and the other guys made smaller mistakes but i don't think that will happen so i feel pretty confident that like again worst case scenario is this just keeps slowly going down

over the course of like six seven eight years it gives us the money back and we wasted our time like that's the worst case scenario and that's such a negative outlook on life i'm like i'm not i'm not gonna wake up in the morning to do that i'm gonna wake up in the morning i'm gonna see what i can do you know like so that's that's what kind of i don't know i i guess does that is that like the again meandering that's gonna be the theme of this but um

Totally agree. I've watched you guys. I've watched MFM. I've watched several podcasts. people in let's say media build audiences. And I'm like, again, they like the quote. That's like, I think I put it in the post, but it's like first time founders focus on product. Second time founders focus on distribution. And I'm like, I think podcasts are an amazing distribution system.

I absolutely love them. The people I feel the closest to that I don't even know are podcast hosts. And I'm like, that's just, that's a weird thing. Like you guys have these like mega fans who think they know everything about you. And they do because it's just the, the format is, They kind of do in a way. They do. They know everything.

I think it's a great medium. I think it's a great... Like, I love everything about it. And I'm like, I've done a lot of consuming of podcasts over the last, like, let's say four years. Like, probably, again, like most people, like around COVID, it really started exploding. And... Because of that, I'm like, I wanted to do something. And my plan was like, well, I'll just start a podcast, you know?

So I started going on like found requests with those guys. Love them. I was just a third wheel. I could hop in, you know, add some accountability. Like, are we recording this week? You know, and stuff like that. And it's awesome. I don't do any of the work. I don't have to pay anything. I just show up and talk. This is like my ideal job. And I'm like, so that's cool.

And then I was like, well, what if, you know, when Fireside dropped in, I was like, what if it's just bigger? What if I hosted them too? I'm noticing that FunnerQuest is a transistor podcast.
