Speaker 1 (00:01):
This is Are You Kidding? Podcasts? I can listen with
my kids with brothers Sebastian and Brandon Martinez, who are
kids helping kids. Hi, everybody, welcome back to another podcast.
Today we are interviewing two kids just like us and
there are the same agent as twelve and fourteen. They
also have their own company called Kington Jet's Accessories. Without
(00:21):
further due, let's introduce Jabez and Christopher. So, Hi, guys,
doing today? Good? How about yourself? We're doing great? Thanks
for asking, but we're gonna ask you some questions today
about your company. So why both ties do you do?
You have a passion for both ties? Um? Yes, I
have a passion for about times. I'm pretty sure my
(00:42):
brother do because he's joined me with it, and that
they just look nice like life the time I see,
So I really want to buy them, but you know
I have my own. So yeah, Oh that's that's cool.
It's great that you have passions for something. So where
are you guys located? We are located in Metro Atlanta.
Oh well we're in Miami, Florida. Uh what's it like
(01:05):
in Atlanta? Um, Atlanta's I'm kind of stuff happening, But
like once you get to live here in a little
a little bit, it's real fun. Is it hot or cold?
Right now? It is very cold because over here in
Miami it's hot all year round. You can never wear
(01:25):
a jacket because it's always so hot. Yoh look, that's awesome. Yeah,
well it's not really awesome because like it there's also humidity.
It's just really hot all the time. So like when
you go outside, it's like, oh, why it's so hot,
Like I want Like it makes you want to go
back inside. You know, you open year around. Yeah, whoa
(01:52):
d away till April April you guys. Yeah. It also
ranged a lot, so we're not able to go in
the food and also hurricanes, you know, just a lot
of hurricanes here in Miami, so you can't always go
on the pool. So we're happy to share your company
with our listeners because we want to spread the message
(02:14):
that you're never too young or too old to start
a company. You could be uh, twelve or fourteen, just
like you and me. Yeah, So like with kids or companies,
it's really interesting because they're basically preparing themselves themselves for
the future. They're really setting themselves up for success because
you already have a job. You don't have to like
one year older be like, oh, I gotta go look
(02:34):
for a job. What do I do? You already said.
So what do you guys think about kids having companies
just like us? Well, I think it's cool because when
you grow up, you don't have to work for somebody.
You can have your own vacation days and don't have
to ask your boss if you can go out and
spend time with your family. You can just do that
on a regular day. Yeah. And yeah, you're your own
(02:55):
boss unless your brother is your boss. Yeah, just like me,
because I'm the CEO, I'm the boss. So how did
you get the ideals for your company? And um white
bow ties? Um? Both ties? Is? Both ties are really, like, um,
something that everybody should have. Like I'm in eighth grade,
so at the end of the year, we have an
(03:16):
eighth grade dance, and I want to stand out. So
that's another reason why people could all have both ties. Yeah,
we love bow ties. Every time I dressed down, I
always gotta get a bow tie. And now we gotta
get both ties from you guys. Yeah, and my mom
used to make us bow ties from more socks. So
maybe we could do something with your bow ties, make
your bow ties into socks. Yeah, I like that what
(03:39):
we could do or something. Yeah, we could do a
bundle socks and bow ties. That would be great. So
whose idea was it to start the company? Because you
know it also comes it all comes from somewhere, So
who was it? Me? I started it because I had
careerd at school in third grade and I asked my mom,
(04:01):
she can help me make both ties for girls, I
mean both ties for boys and her boats for girls.
So she helped me and I sold out within a minute.
After I sold out, other teachers kept asked me do
I do this for a living? So the next year
I came back and I told him I started my
business and that's how I came to just as soon
as got started. So this one's for you, Christopher. How
did you get involved in the company? Well, really, they
(04:24):
asked me to help him with the business, so I
was like, sure, I'll do it, and then that's how
I got into the business. So he was just like, hey,
May joined the company. Yeah, that's that's kind of what
it asked. He was like, he was like when we
got home, he was like, hecuse you asked my mom
and she said, yeah, we can do that. Now. He
was like, Chris, do you want to help me sell
(04:45):
both ties in Atlanta? I was like, yeah, sure, that
sounds cool, and then started That's just like how we
got started. I had a passion for socks, so me
and my mom designed some socks. But at first I
was a little bit shy. So my I, well, my
mom and me like kind of asked my dad to
bring Brandon over to help sell socks, and that's how
(05:09):
he got involved with the company, just like you guys.
So you guys started what year I think two thousands,
like I want to say two thousands, twelve I think.
And now it's so, how has your company grown since
you started? Our company has grown a lot. We've had
a lot of interviews, UM TV show interviews, we have
(05:33):
gotten our names out there and it's just been a
very good experience. Do you feel like you're using your
fame for success and to sell more both ties or
to do something else? Well, I think we use are
I think it's last basically because people get us profit
Instagram and they notice us, then they asked to collapse
and then we can say, yeah, we can do that.
In the other part to just we do it for
(05:53):
fun and we just try to help both tize to
help other people look fancy and classic when they need
something to where, like to an event or like a
wedding or or something like that. Yeah, and with that
same like der classmates are your classrooms like, Yo, look
it's the boat tie kid. You can get a picture.
(06:14):
You canna get an autog like that they like every
Instagram maybe like maybe like to be like, oh there's
there's the way I'd be doing the boatie and like
put me out one got it just actually happened to me.
So in my friends school, they played like a video
of me and my brother at the school and my
my friend of like FaceTime one of his friends and
(06:36):
he was like, yo, isn't not to sock kid. I
was like, yeah, it's me. So it's cool how people
are like You're like, you're noticing me from other schools,
so obviously you have to come up with the boat
ties do how do you guys come up with the
boaties designs? Um So basically like every once in a while,
will if we need more fabric, will go to the
(06:57):
fabric store. Different ones like Joannes and sometimes we're going
to Walmart just to see what they have, but it's
mainly not Walmart. But then we'll find some really good
materials and then we'll just make both times out of
they see you guys are saying that you make to
baltize yourself. Yes, sir, like that's really impressive with you
(07:18):
do as well, but we we usually use the sewing machine.
But that's impressive. You guys make this baltizes from hand,
well from sewing machines, but you still in making them.
So each each baltize crafted from you, guys, We didn't.
(07:39):
Me and me and Jay we both started when he
was five and I was three. That's when they started.
So if you he said starting two thousand and twelve,
that was nine years ago, so actually starting two thousands, No,
you're eleven. I was three and j was five. Well,
when we started, I was about five years old. Brandon,
(07:59):
you're seven. I was seven. So as you guys, you know,
you guys make the both ties yourselves. Do you guys
also have a favorite bow tie design? Yes, I have
my favorite both tizes, and I think my favorite it
is either the leopard print or the for the poker dot.
That's that's one of my two favorites. It's definitely an
interesting design. You don't really see stuff like that, but
(08:23):
it's still really it's still it's really cool. You just
see these bow ties like just all black, but yours
is very creative, like flashy, flashy. Yeah, what do you
guys want to do next with the company? We want
to take our business. It's a mazy to start set
on our both ties in the in the kids, in
the kid's department, in the men's department of Macy. That's
(08:44):
a good idea because you really want to promote your
bow ties and just make more souls. Yeah, we're trying
to get into retail stores like Macy, so we can help, yeah,
promote our socks. Yeah, because you know, the more you
sell the better. This So who is your biggest supporter?
Because you know people, you obviously need inspiration from somewhere
(09:06):
or someone to help you out. So who who do
you think supports you the most? I think who supports
us to most as our mom, because she got us
started into this business and she helped us leave, like
she led the way for us most of the time,
and even when we didn't want to do the business.
I mean even when we did, like if we had
an event, if we didn't want to do it, our
(09:28):
mom will be there and tell us we should do it.
So we could sell both ties to other people so
they can have a good time when they look good
and get compliments. And when when we there was the
one thing that we did and she said, we said,
we don't want to go and she was like, she's like,
come on, dude, it do it. Do it. And then
it was an event for children and we went and
(09:49):
it was like my favorite event we ever went to.
I was like, all else, why was it your favorite event?
Because there was these two two boys, the the Eliminate
Brown Boys, Brown Boys Womind and we went to one
of their events and it was like a commercial so
we got to play football for the commercial. Well let's
(10:09):
talking just chill and it was really funny. And if
you didn't go, you would have been able to experience that.
So it's good that you always it's good that you
always go to every event because you never know, like,
well you could get out of So what about you guys, Well,
our our biggest supporters probably our parents. Um, they always
push us forward, they always always help us out and
(10:32):
They're always there, so you know, inspire us and we're like, hey,
come on, we got this and because of them we
are here. Yes, And just like your mom shows our
inspiration and also other people. And for you guys, who
was your biggest inspiration? Our biggest inspiration? Um Our biggest
(10:52):
inspiration was probably I forgot his name, but he is
the weather man for Channel leven News and he inspired
us to keep going and keep doing what we're doing.
And that's that's what we're doing to make him problem. Yeah.
One thing that's crazy, like like people something like random
people could just inspire you. I don't know where, Like
nobody would expect a weatherman to inspire you, you know,
(11:15):
but they somehow do and they really bring out the
best out of you. So it's pretty cool. And for
our biggest like inspirations, we have to say Poully, our parents,
but also Dwayne Wade because we want to be just
like him. He is a basketball player, which we are
basketball players. We want to make it big in the NBA.
(11:35):
And also he also has his own company, he saw
Socks Shoes all that we want to be just like him.
And you guys play basketball too, right, Uh so do
you do you guys play on any teams like for school? Um,
I'm I'm on the middle school team. So we just
we just came back from practice just like an hour ago.
(12:00):
Any points you outa my average? Um, I'd say like
at least twelve twelve points a game. What's your high
scoring game? My highest scoring game this year has been
sixteen points where that game was a triple double. What
about your brother, what's your high scoing game. Well, I
(12:22):
don't play for the team, but for au my highest
scoring game was like losing the eighteen or twenty because
I remember the game. I had a a I don't
know what's gonna court it was, but I remember I
had a game at a purple is Susking Core. I like, well,
maybe one day you could come back, come down to
(12:43):
Miami and we could play basketball, Yes, sir. And how
do you since you play, Like, how do you bout
in school? Uh? And running your own boat type business
install It's actually pretty easy because like when you do school,
you have to work in the day, you got practiced
(13:04):
and after school and then when you get home you
can work on your bow ties and designes. And we
can even do that on the weekend since you don't
have school practice or games unless they give you Saturday
and Sunday practice back to them. For young entrepreneurs, how
what tips would you leave for young entrepreneurs that are
listening right now. Well, my mata is that you should
(13:26):
never give up, listen to what your heart tells you
to do, and starting a business isn't that hard. All
you have to do is put your mind to it
and tell yourself that you can do it, and never
let yourself down and just keep going with your business
and it will be one day it would be a
great business. Yeah, because if if you have a pasture
for it, gotta make it into reality. It's just like
(13:50):
just like somebody's passion to go for the NBA, to
work hard and some day you'll get there. Um And
have you been able to use your company to support
any charitable organizations? No, not yet, but we're still working
on it because we're still looking at the charities that
(14:11):
we can do. We can do any charity, but we're
just looking for a charity that we could do that
thereby and close by somewhere in Atlanta, what charity trying
to help. We're trying to help the homeless give them
like bag meals, paperbag meals, and just be the homeless,
give them jackets clothes so they won't be cold in
the winter. Well that's great, because why do you want
(14:33):
to do this, Why do you want to get back
to homeless people? Because when I see a homeless person,
I just feel bad for them since they don't have
a house, some of them don't even have families, like
they just be out there all alone. I think they could,
like because they're cold and they don't have search shoes,
they could get infection. So I just don't want them
to be in paying out there without anything, no food,
(14:54):
no clothes. And I just think that if we help them,
they'll think not to do anything the harm themselves, so
they can actually go back and try and at least
start a business, to start a business in the heart
so they can get to close. We could be an
inspiration to them and they could just live their life
better than what it was before. Yeah, I think it's
(15:17):
really important to help the homeless because they're just there
struggling to survive and we just need to give back
to them so the better healthier and just make them happy.
And then there was someone that actually cares about them
and that actually loves them. Yeah, and it's to make
them feel wanted. Yeah, And everybody should give back because
(15:39):
you know, there's a lot of people that are very
unfortunate and we are blessed to have like what we
have now, and so we could use that to help
give back to the community or end the homeless. That's
that's very true. And if you could get your bow
ties to any select every team, who would he be.
(16:02):
Mine celebrity that he would pick would be Lebron James
because that's my favorite NBA players. And if I had
a chance to give us a boat tip to Lebron James,
that would just be crazy. Okay, I have one question though,
who is the goat Lebron James or Michael Jordan's. Michael
Jordan has six championships three yes, three yes yes three
(16:30):
that take the stats. Look, Lebron stats are better than
Michael Jordan's. All Michael Jordan has is points. That's all
he has over Lebron feels something about and Michael Jordan's
his era, they were playing way tall, they were. Yes,
they will get him more often now you just touched
them answer foul. Yeah, But Lebron goes to get better players.
(16:50):
Michael Jordan's only I know, But look at this, Michael
Jordan had a stacked team. He had dinner from him,
Dotty piping. Who who's he at? That point guard in
the centator? Who did Lebron have when he won the championship?
Him Kyrie thing about he was still like the best
(17:10):
one there, even though it's a good team, he was
still the best one. Yeah, but that's when he carried
his team over the borders. Who that Kevin Durant Steth
and Kurt Clay Thompson, Draymond Greene and there was only Lebron.
Michael s have You don't forgot about that game when
it block Lebron had? Yeah that was who thousand a sixteen?
(17:33):
But still did they win the championships? Like Michael Jordan
had him listen, listen him Gotti pipp attacker of the paint,
Dennis Rodman. Dennis Roman was a lockdown the offender. He
had a little point guard I can't remember his name.
Michael's wellywood do was bust in the center, the big
(17:57):
toe that would just give rebounds over the back. In
Michael Jordan's era, he they wasn't playing anybody good like
Magic Johnson. He wasn't doing nothing. Larry Bird I don't
even know we I don't even know if he was
playing in But Michael Jordan's Michael Jordan's with dogs and
all these other players, but they were back like Lebrone
gotta guard, Kevin Durant, Paul George Kauha, Leonard, he usat
(18:19):
the guard Anthony Day because he was running every position
on the court. So if you looked Eddie from the
from the perspective, the omblicant from it, Lebron is the
goal and he's better than Michael Jordan's. That's all it.
That's all it is. So if we look at him,
Michael Jordan's over Lebron, I think he has better handles
and a better shot and it's most definitely a better freeto.
(18:41):
But Lebron has the donkin ability, the strength, the speed,
the agility, the vertical Okay, I can't we can just
agree to disagree here because obvious Michael jan and is
there anything else you want us you want to listen
needs to know about you guys. We're so grateful and
(19:02):
we want to thank our parents, grandparents and all of
our mentors for support since we started our business and
thank you for having us on the show. It was
a fun time and I just want to thank you
for being here because we had an awesome time with
you guys. Well, thank you guys for being on our podcast.
We hope you guys could come down to Miami and
we could play basketball and we could play football and
(19:23):
we can Yeah. I like that. I look forward to that. Yeah,
we look forward to We have something that we would
like to tell you guys. Um, thank you for this opportunity,
and we also look forward to working with you in
the near future. So do we bye bye bye. If

it's still really it's still it's really cool. You just
see these bow ties like just all black, but yours
is very creative, like flashy, flashy. Yeah, what do you
guys want to do next with the company? We want
to take our business. It's a mazy to start set
on our both ties in the in the kids, in
the kid's department, in the men's department of Macy. That's
(08:44):
a good idea because you really want to promote your
bow ties and just make more souls. Yeah, we're trying
to get into retail stores like Macy, so we can help, yeah,
promote our socks. Yeah, because you know, the more you
sell the better. This So who is your biggest supporter?
Because you know people, you obviously need inspiration from somewhere
(09:06):
or someone to help you out. So who who do
you think supports you the most? I think who supports
us to most as our mom, because she got us
started into this business and she helped us leave, like
she led the way for us most of the time,
and even when we didn't want to do the business.
I mean even when we did, like if we had
an event, if we didn't want to do it, our
(09:28):
mom will be there and tell us we should do it.
So we could sell both ties to other people so
they can have a good time when they look good
and get compliments. And when when we there was the
one thing that we did and she said, we said,
we don't want to go and she was like, she's like,
come on, dude, it do it. Do it. And then
it was an event for children and we went and
(09:49):
it was like my favorite event we ever went to.
I was like, all else, why was it your favorite event?
Because there was these two two boys, the the Eliminate
Brown Boys, Brown Boys Womind and we went to one
of their events and it was like a commercial so
we got to play football for the commercial. Well let's
(10:09):
talking just chill and it was really funny. And if
you didn't go, you would have been able to experience that.
So it's good that you always it's good that you
always go to every event because you never know, like,
well you could get out of So what about you guys, Well,
our our biggest supporters probably our parents. Um, they always
push us forward, they always always help us out and
(10:32):
They're always there, so you know, inspire us and we're like, hey,
come on, we got this and because of them we
are here. Yes, And just like your mom shows our
inspiration and also other people. And for you guys, who
was your biggest inspiration? Our biggest inspiration? Um Our biggest
(10:52):
inspiration was probably I forgot his name, but he is
the weather man for Channel leven News and he inspired
us to keep going and keep doing what we're doing.
And that's that's what we're doing to make him problem. Yeah.
One thing that's crazy, like like people something like random
people could just inspire you. I don't know where, Like
nobody would expect a weatherman to inspire you, you know,
(11:15):
but they somehow do and they really bring out the
best out of you. So it's pretty cool. And for
our biggest like inspirations, we have to say Poully, our parents,
but also Dwayne Wade because we want to be just
like him. He is a basketball player, which we are
basketball players. We want to make it big in the NBA.
(11:35):
And also he also has his own company, he saw
Socks Shoes all that we want to be just like him.
And you guys play basketball too, right, Uh so do
you do you guys play on any teams like for school? Um,
I'm I'm on the middle school team. So we just
we just came back from practice just like an hour ago.
(12:00):
Any points you outa my average? Um, I'd say like
at least twelve twelve points a game. What's your high
scoring game? My highest scoring game this year has been
sixteen points where that game was a triple double. What
about your brother, what's your high scoing game. Well, I
(12:22):
don't play for the team, but for au my highest
scoring game was like losing the eighteen or twenty because
I remember the game. I had a a I don't
know what's gonna court it was, but I remember I
had a game at a purple is Susking Core. I like, well,
maybe one day you could come back, come down to
(12:43):
Miami and we could play basketball, Yes, sir. And how
do you since you play, Like, how do you bout
in school? Uh? And running your own boat type business
install It's actually pretty easy because like when you do school,
you have to work in the day, you got practiced
(13:04):
and after school and then when you get home you
can work on your bow ties and designes. And we
can even do that on the weekend since you don't
have school practice or games unless they give you Saturday
and Sunday practice back to them. For young entrepreneurs, how
what tips would you leave for young entrepreneurs that are
listening right now. Well, my mata is that you should
(13:26):
never give up, listen to what your heart tells you
to do, and starting a business isn't that hard. All
you have to do is put your mind to it
and tell yourself that you can do it, and never
let yourself down and just keep going with your business
and it will be one day it would be a
great business. Yeah, because if if you have a pasture
for it, gotta make it into reality. It's just like
(13:50):
just like somebody's passion to go for the NBA, to
work hard and some day you'll get there. Um And
have you been able to use your company to support
any charitable organizations? No, not yet, but we're still working
on it because we're still looking at the charities that
(14:11):
we can do. We can do any charity, but we're
just looking for a charity that we could do that
thereby and close by somewhere in Atlanta, what charity trying
to help. We're trying to help the homeless give them
like bag meals, paperbag meals, and just be the homeless,
give them jackets clothes so they won't be cold in
the winter. Well that's great, because why do you want
(14:33):
to do this, Why do you want to get back
to homeless people? Because when I see a homeless person,
I just feel bad for them since they don't have
a house, some of them don't even have families, like
they just be out there all alone. I think they could,
like because they're cold and they don't have search shoes,
they could get infection. So I just don't want them
to be in paying out there without anything, no food,
(14:54):
no clothes. And I just think that if we help them,
they'll think not to do anything the harm themselves, so
they can actually go back and try and at least
start a business, to start a business in the heart
so they can get to close. We could be an
inspiration to them and they could just live their life
better than what it was before. Yeah, I think it's
(15:17):
really important to help the homeless because they're just there
struggling to survive and we just need to give back
to them so the better healthier and just make them happy.
And then there was someone that actually cares about them
and that actually loves them. Yeah, and it's to make
them feel wanted. Yeah, And everybody should give back because
(15:39):
you know, there's a lot of people that are very
unfortunate and we are blessed to have like what we
have now, and so we could use that to help
give back to the community or end the homeless. That's
that's very true. And if you could get your bow
ties to any select every team, who would he be.
(16:02):
Mine celebrity that he would pick would be Lebron James
because that's my favorite NBA players. And if I had
a chance to give us a boat tip to Lebron James,
that would just be crazy. Okay, I have one question though,
who is the goat Lebron James or Michael Jordan's. Michael
Jordan has six championships three yes, three yes yes three
(16:30):
that take the stats. Look, Lebron stats are better than
Michael Jordan's. All Michael Jordan has is points. That's all
he has over Lebron feels something about and Michael Jordan's
his era, they were playing way tall, they were. Yes,
they will get him more often now you just touched
them answer foul. Yeah, But Lebron goes to get better players.
(16:50):
Michael Jordan's only I know, But look at this, Michael
Jordan had a stacked team. He had dinner from him,
Dotty piping. Who who's he at? That point guard in
the centator? Who did Lebron have when he won the championship?
Him Kyrie thing about he was still like the best
(17:10):
one there, even though it's a good team, he was
still the best one. Yeah, but that's when he carried
his team over the borders. Who that Kevin Durant Steth
and Kurt Clay Thompson, Draymond Greene and there was only Lebron.
Michael s have You don't forgot about that game when
it block Lebron had? Yeah that was who thousand a sixteen?
(17:33):
But still did they win the championships? Like Michael Jordan
had him listen, listen him Gotti pipp attacker of the paint,
Dennis Rodman. Dennis Roman was a lockdown the offender. He
had a little point guard I can't remember his name.
Michael's wellywood do was bust in the center, the big
(17:57):
toe that would just give rebounds over the back. In
Michael Jordan's era, he they wasn't playing anybody good like
Magic Johnson. He wasn't doing nothing. Larry Bird I don't
even know we I don't even know if he was
playing in But Michael Jordan's Michael Jordan's with dogs and
all these other players, but they were back like Lebrone
gotta guard, Kevin Durant, Paul George Kauha, Leonard, he usat
(18:19):
the guard Anthony Day because he was running every position
on the court. So if you looked Eddie from the
from the perspective, the omblicant from it, Lebron is the
goal and he's better than Michael Jordan's. That's all it.
That's all it is. So if we look at him,
Michael Jordan's over Lebron, I think he has better handles
and a better shot and it's most definitely a better freeto.
(18:41):
But Lebron has the donkin ability, the strength, the speed,
the agility, the vertical Okay, I can't we can just
agree to disagree here because obvious Michael jan and is
there anything else you want us you want to listen
needs to know about you guys. We're so grateful and
(19:02):
