That's how amazing this guest was.
Yeah, it was Janice Ansin and her special friend, Andrea Kimmel, who happens to be married to me.
So yeah.
Hope you enjoy this interview with CE Ansen and.
(00:44):
Let's cue the music.
Now.
I got nothing to say 'cause I said all the introductory stuff already.
Just remember that whatever we talk to you about with Janice is not financial or investment advice.
Wrecked.
Alright.
(01:04):
This is a episode.
We didn't say we're good at this.
We were near all this stuff.
We got guys working for us, but none of them can like set up our mics and Yeah, mics so they don't have static and our balance.
Yeah.
That's when we hire the sound engineer.
Yeah.
God.
Here we go.
Let's go to the interview.
See you soon.
Hey.
(01:25):
All right, welcome.
That's the perfect segue to this is kinda how it goes.
Every single time guys is like, think it's just a fucking shit show.
And then we start recording and then we like, wait.
I wanna know why Caly looks like Eric Church today.
I don't know who Eric Church is, so I won't answer.
Oh yeah, you're, you're breaking my heart.
(01:47):
Have to, obviously we gotta look him up, so, yeah.
I don't know if that's like, like this one for example.
So I'm looking super girly apparently.
Uh, but I'm hearing, I think it's really just the aviator sunglasses.
Just the sunglasses as you can, as you can see this one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, um, yeah, so I, I just got up, but, um, so, so, no, no, no.
(02:14):
I am makeup today and, and then I was redoing the art stuff in my room and I didn't have anything on the wall, so I was like, okay, I'll just be like undercover and like you hung up.
Always hung over.
I assume you're hungover sunglasses.
Were you party, were you partying last night, Kaly? No, no.
(02:35):
I, uh, I, I did stay up super late, but not, like, not for any fun reason.
I have, I, for whatever I was thinking that today was the day we were meeting with the, uh, the, uh, Aussie and not, I, I got like the dates mixed up and I have a, I have a doctor's appointment that, a little medical procedure that I am dreading later, and so it.
(02:56):
Kept me up last night, so gotta do an IUD swap, so, oh no.
Yeah.
So, hi Janice.
Hi Jen.
Thanks for having me on your podcast.
I'm so glad you, I'm so glad you wanted to be on it.
I was really excited.
You're the first person to like to, to ask to be on.
Yeah.
I'm excited to see you guys get Rich.
(03:17):
I know.
Yeah.
Yay.
How's that going for you, Kaylyn? It's going great so far.
Well, well, I mean, I guess I shouldn't, I I, since it's the two of us, we got, we gotta pull up the portfolio already if we're, should we say that? Okay.
We'll go.
Alright.
Well, I, I actually was hoping I was gonna hear about the garage shale that you're about to make a ton of money on.
(03:38):
Oh.
Yeah, there's gonna be a garage sale.
We're gonna get crazy rich from that.
So are you selling all the Poshmark items outta your closet? Because there's like, well, Mr.
Poshmark, the dress I have on this.
I see.
Yeah.
There you go.
Yeah.
Poshmark.
Uh, yeah.
Janice, you have a bit of a posh mark problem.
I What kind of problem? No.
Okay.
Alright.
(04:00):
You're saving money.
You're saving money, but how often are you buying? Oh, maybe once every couple of months.
Oh, that's not bad.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If that, if that's a problem, then if that's your worst problem, then you're really pretty.
Yeah.
I also buy once every couple of months, so Yeah.
Just when you 50 items, when you do Oh, no, no.
(04:21):
I mean, for Poshmark.
For Poshmark, I don't, I, I generally don't buy that, that many items.
Yeah.
Sell as many as you can, but don't buy, uh, don't buy very many.
Yeah.
I, I don't, it's too like, it doesn't make a lot of sense for me for like the resell, unless I like really want an item and then just.
I don't want to wanna wear it once or something, but like, because they, they charge so much for shipping and stuff on Poshmark that it doesn't make sense for like, for me to buy it from somebody and then resell it.
(04:49):
I'd have to like.
Resell it for quite a bit.
I have done it with some, some things actually that's, I shouldn't, it's like, lately I've been fighting like, like Jimmy Chu shoes.
I just got two pairs of Jimmy Chew shoes on Poshmark for like ridiculously cheap, like 30 bucks.
What? For, for Jimmy shoes that are in good shape.
So like both of those are now listed, like, yeah.
(05:10):
How many listings do you have? Uh, 480 ish.
Wow.
Whoa.
Yeah.
Yeah.
How many sales? Um.
Let's go to my stats.
Uh, you want me to tell you this stuff from memory? What? Yeah.
Geez.
(05:30):
All right.
All right.
Hang on.
I didn't know it was gonna be the, the third degree when I got, I know Inquisition here, man.
Like.
Look at me.
I just rolled outta bed.
I gotta answer all these.
Like, look.
Alright, questions about Poshmark and I didn't know I was gonna to reveal this kind of information.
Um, I'll take your social security number also.
(05:54):
No problem.
Uh, right.
My posh at, so.
All right.
Um, I have, uh, 463, uh, listings.
Currently.
I have, uh, made uh, 824 sales.
Wow.
Yeah.
We're just getting rich.
Yes, that's right.
(06:15):
Yeah.
Her total value of all our listings is like 80 grand or something.
Right.
But that they take her profits and invest in Poshmark.
'cause they're, they're traded on the, you know.
In the stock.
You could do that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Have you thought of that? Are I, I don't.
Are they probably, I don't think they have.
They go, they're, I looked, I did my research before coming up.
Oh yeah.
Jana came to play today.
Don't, yeah, not me.
(06:37):
I did not.
I left that to Janice.
She has a couple of stocks to pitch us on today.
No, I know.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We shouldn't waste our time with this, Janice.
Like, do you care about people being posh ambassadors? I, I, what is a posh ambassador? See, see, that's, that's exactly the reaction that I was expecting to get from a, like, I love notes.
(06:58):
P What is, what is, yeah.
Yeah.
Poshmark has decided they want this to be a social site, even though they make it like very hard to like communicate with people on there, but they want it to be social like.
It's not, no, not at all.
Um, but basically a posh ambassador.
You gotta have a, a few like things that you have to tick off.
Um, you have to have, have shipping less than in three days on your average.
(07:24):
You have to have a, your, uh, like you have to have, re-list your items at least 5,000 times and share other people's things.
Oh, like 5,000 times and have one love note, whatever.
Um, yeah, it's supposed to basically mean that you're like, you're very dedicated to like being a good Poshmark seller, but like.
(07:45):
For someone like me, my, because I've sold, you know, 800 something to things and like I've had problems with U-S-P-S-A few times.
My average shipping rate is now at 3.2
days to get that down under three with an, with that many items, like I'd have to be shipping things on day one and they'd have to absolutely be like.
(08:07):
Tracked.
Right.
I'd depend on USPS to like be scanning them as they should.
Um, within the hour you're gonna be getting kicked off, right? Yeah, right.
Um, in order for me to ever get that below three days, so I'll never get to be a posh ambassador.
Um, but, but you know, Kaylen, I believe in you.
No, I, I, I mean, I also don't care about being one because.
It doesn't seem to be any benefit.
(08:29):
I, I've never been like, Hmm, should I really get this item that I really like? I don't know.
They're not an ambassador, so like, you know, I, I've never thought that, so I.
I don't know.
It, it sounds like, uh, like an Airbnb Superhost, which you would actually make a decision based off of, you know? Yeah.
Versus like, right.
(08:50):
And like, I'd be, I did become a Superhost, I think, um, or I was on my way to doing it because they like, they like sent a photographer to like, you know, professional photographer to take pictures of my place and stuff so that, because they were just kinda getting started with, with the Superhost thing though.
Then I, and then I made like, stop doing Airbnb.
But, um.
But I can tell you something right now about Airbnb.
(09:11):
I decided this when I, uh, was checking out of, uh, the Airbnb in Utah last week.
I don't give a shit what it says about you or what it says about me as someone who stays because it's all a game everywhere.
You stay now, they text you immediately and say, well, I'll give you five stars if you give me five stars.
And the Uber guys, as soon as you get out, they're like, please gimme five stars.
(09:33):
You know? Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
I never worry about my rating as an Uber.
Passenger either like, I don't know.
I mean, I, I, a couple years back I like compared with people.
I was like, I don't, I don't take Uber all that often.
It's almost always been for work to and from the airport and stuff.
Yeah.
Just because I, I don't know.
I don't like, I'm kind of lame, so I don't go out that much.
(09:54):
And, uh, like.
I'm with a couple of my friends who like party a lot.
Like I know that they've been in Ubers and had one of their party throw up in the Uber, like not, but my rating was the lowest.
And I'm like, what the hell man? Like when like, what did I do? I just like get in.
I'm like quiet.
I like put my headphones on, you know? 'cause usually it's going to the airport and I'm like, I don't really wanna like have this whole thing you and I talking about stuff because like.
(10:22):
You are the Uber driver.
I don't, I, how long have you been doing this? Oh, like, oh, cool.
Like, just that conversation.
I don't need to have it.
Like, we can just, you do you and I'll do me back here.
And, uh, but apparently, oh shit.
That was my alarm.
Uh, oh, man.
You can have a, you can have like Uber strategy.
Stories like, oh yeah, I like to, I get, what I do is I get up at 5:00 AM and then I drive to the downtown part of town.
(10:45):
And then you, you, you're not like wicked into that.
Like, well, I've had that conversation enough times that I'm like, I don't care.
Like, you know, this is whatever.
When I was doing it for, when I was at 3M, I did it all the time.
Took Uber all the time, and so I was taking early morning Ubers and all of those people, you see the same ones after a while.
And I'm like, anyway, so I'm like, man, this guy threw up in the back of a cab or whatever in the back of this Uber.
(11:12):
He's got a better rating than me.
Just 'cause I'm like, Hey, I'm just gonna put on headphones.
So, you know, I don't like that.
We live in this society where everything you do is, there's an expectation that I'm gonna give you a rating and you're gonna give a rating.
Everything tip.
Or a tip.
Or a tip.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, I have to tell you, speaking of ratings though, I have to tell you, uh, we cheat on this podcast and we trade ratings with other podcasts.
(11:35):
I, I would trade it with your friend, but you won't send me her goddamn podcast.
I'll, I'll send you her podcast.
But, um, let me tell you the past couple that I've been assigned.
Hang on.
Talk amongst yourselves.
Yeah, yeah.
Hey, Calin.
Sometimes it's fun to talk like about their like story though, like you don't have to talk about their.
Uber strategy, like where they're driving? No, no, no.
(11:56):
This is where you and Kaylyn are different.
Yeah.
I know you like to, do you like to hear that story? No.
And have that interaction.
Don't Kaylyn wants to put the dark glasses on.
Th th this person doesn't exist to me.
Like they, they're like a person for a moment.
They might as well be a robot.
I don't like, yeah.
I'm like, I have, I have no interest in any sort of connection with you whatsoever.
(12:17):
Like, like I spoke with a man from the Congo and.
You were speaking French, it was awesome.
Uh, yeah, I'd be like, uh, parley.
I'll just pretend to sleep.
Parley.
Seriously, the last time I actually was, the last time I was coming to Cleveland and I was like running late and I get this guy, this, I wasn't planning to take the Uber, but uh, anyway, like.
(12:43):
Mom and dad fucked up.
Yes, yes.
That's right.
And like, man, the guy was like, this was like the chattiest old man driver.
Like it's, it's like I'm running late and he's driving.
Well, he's got nothing to worry about.
He's so slow.
He's so slow.
And I'm like, oh, okay.
I am like, we start, we're like, I'm chatting a little bit and I'm like, man, boy, I hope I catch this flight.
(13:07):
Sure it's cutting it close.
I shouldn't have made this decision, like, you know, and he is like, oh, I'll do my best to get you there quickly.
And then he gets a call from like his, he's like, oh, do you mind if I take this call? It's my wife and I've been worried about her.
And I'm like, are you fucking kidding me? Yeah.
Answer the phone, like, of course you should talk to your wi your wife, you've been concerned about.
(13:27):
And I'm like, perfect opportunity.
Like put on my, put in my headphones to like, turn it up like it.
And so he, then he's talking and I hear, I can kind of hear that he is getting off the phone, and I'm like, man, okay, now I better just like.
Really show, here's my ear.
See how it's got something.
You are like, I heard him start to talk to me.
I kept looking out the window.
(13:47):
I just was like, I can't hear this guy.
I'm just gonna pretend I can't hear you.
You talk to your wife.
I'm glad things are, I'm glad she's safe.
Small talk is your idea of hell.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Well with Uber drivers in particular, right? Yeah.
But it also in general.
Yeah.
I dunno.
So here are the podcast that we have traded ratings with.
These are the last three that I was assigned.
(14:09):
Um.
In, in order the three times ago.
Love your life.
Show personal growth, mindset and habits for busy moms.
Then came.
In case that wasn't inappropriate enough.
The next one after that was quiet connection, postpartum mental health, and you're an expert on that topic.
(14:32):
And then I got assigned single parent success stories and, um, all right, lemme set this one up for you.
So the, uh, the woman who was being interviewed was a, uh, was.
Born and raised in China.
She was an orphan who couldn't walk, uh, due to like polio.
Yeah.
So she, uh, she migrated to the United States on her own, uh, taught herself enough to become a medical assistant.
(14:59):
So Wednesday is Liberation Day.
What's everybody's plans for Liberation Day? When did Liberation Day Liberation from, where are we liberated from? I think we're being liberated from a decent economy, is what I'm guessing.
Oh, Donald Trump is, this is the, this is the date that all the tariffs go into effect.
And, uh, and uh, so he's called it.
(15:21):
Called it Liberation Day.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
So I'm deciding if I'm gonna buy a new car before then.
What? A new car? You should, no, you gotta wait for a couple of weeks until I get there.
Okay.
Then you'll be on schedule.
But I can't pay six.
To $10,000 more calin.
It's now, yeah.
I mean you are on an airplane now before liberation day.
(15:41):
See, so this is how this works.
This is the first I'm hearing about, like thinking about getting a new car and tomorrow we will have a new car.
That's how, that's how we operate.
Yeah.
She loves the Maserati, but it is like a little something, too much gas or something.
So the best thing to do, well, the tires are only good for every 12 to 15,000 miles.
(16:04):
So, and that's a $3,500 bill every time.
How about bw? They're like the highest rated luxury car in on consumer reports.
I like b We have one.
We have one of those.
Now Janice is at the opposite end of the spectrum.
She'll be like, we're thinking about getting a new car.
That's nice.
And then in about 12 years, yeah, that's, that's that's my schedule.
Yeah.
For new cars.
Roughly new car.
(16:25):
Never used car.
Uh, well, yeah.
I mean the last was like, I did buy my, the Nissan.
That was in 2011 and, uh, drove that until I totaled it recently, you know, recently.
How's your, how's your hybrid? Uh, I hate that car.
It's like a super old man car.
Like, and like, I don't know to contain, 'cause you have to do like the battery and the gas.
(16:50):
System.
I mean, I guess so guess I don't do any of that.
No, I don't do any maintenance.
No.
Yeah, yeah.
I just about.
Oh yeah, the light comes on and you just keep on driving, like, yeah, that's right.
Then I go to, I went to Discount Tire 'cause I was like, I think my tires might be getting a little low.
(17:12):
I don't know, the light's been blinking at me for a while and they were like, yeah, the pressure's supposed to be at, uh, 25 years or at 13 for all of them.
Um, so yeah, so I don't worry, I don't sweat it, you know, with that maintenance stuff, you know.
So you, you did recently buy A BMW.
How did you get.
The, how did this process happen given that you're Oh, and for the love of all things and you bought a new house, like, I mean, all of a sudden, like the dam burst or something, right? And you, or you, maybe it's your mental dam, you're like, enough's enough, Dan.
(17:44):
Yeah.
Yeah.
Sometimes you just gotta let go of that.
Just bye.
Well, the house search took a long time though, because, well, they all take a long time.
They can buy at certain prices, right? With with Dan the man.
Yes.
Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes.
So they, you got a really good, they called him Danny deal breaker for like a stomach.
Yeah.
Danny deal breaker.
(18:04):
That's the, yeah, yeah.
Yep.
That's what's I'll call him next time I see him for sure.
So when Andre buys a house, right, it's like, this is the house I want, I love this house.
Uh uh.
No price is no object.
We're gonna win this bid.
I got a sense that Dan's approach is a little different than that.
A little bit different.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a very thorough, exhausting.
(18:27):
Uh, therapy induced self-medicate with uh oh yeah.
With alcohol.
Yeah.
But this, this last process really worked for you.
'cause they got this place called the wellness.
We call it the wellness Center.
It's on 16 acres.
Right? 18 acres.
And it's got waterfalls and I don't know.
I'm jealous every time I go over there.
(18:47):
Well, you can always come.
Okay.
Go ahead.
That was, that was actually like our second experience.
'cause we also rented out the Cambridge.
Right.
Um, it turns out like.
If you've lost money on a property, like renting it out until the market bounces back.
Not such a great strategy, at least not for us.
Mm-hmm.
'cause we don't like dealing with this baloney.
I've had great experience with my tenants, but I, but I'm also, like my price point was right.
(19:10):
Kind of at the place that I think, so once you are renting a place for over a certain amount, and I don't like, I, I know more for the Houston market than for anything else, but, um.
Like, then you get, you start to get high end and then people expect you to be really on top of everything and like things to be at a certain level and da da dah da da.
Um, if you place is too cheap, I mean, I was renting my one bedroom loft, so it's not kinda a different thing, but like if you rent it very low end, then.
(19:37):
People are gonna trash your place, but like, I was sort of in the zone where like people kind of take care of everything, but they're not really expecting a whole lot from you as the landlord or the apartment itself.
So yeah, like my, my tenant, he only complained once and that's when, when the refrigerator broke.
Mm-hmm.
Um, and then he, he called to follow up on me getting a new refrigerator like a week and a half later or something, because I was like trying to find one that I liked, you know, for the right price and all of that.
(20:02):
And he was fine with the taking.
Three weeks total for me to get a new fridge, which I was like, man, I would never put up with this shed, but like, but you did it.
But yeah.
Yeah.
But he, yeah, he was, he was great.
Par paid on time every month and was, you know, if not ahead, he paid me like once, several weeks ahead, but stayed for years.
It took him, it took him like three years to get all of his boxes unpacked.
(20:26):
But, uh, when I would go to like, check up all things, but Red Chick.
Yeah, right.
If the red jet clears, you don't care if tenant boxes there or dead bodies or whatever, you know.
Drugs.
Yeah.
I hope there're boxes of, of illegal substances.
That's fine.
I don't care.
But yeah, it's got the perfect tenant.
Um, so I don't know.
(20:47):
Oh, so we're not rich yet, but we're getting there, getting rich.
Uh, let's, let's see how the portfolio is doing.
Uh, it is.
Yet again, another brutal day on Wall Street, down 1%.
As Liberation day approaches, they're gonna liberate us from all of our unearned, unearned things.
I share.
You gonna share? Yes.
I'll, I am sharing, I'm sharing with two people, just not the third uhoh.
(21:12):
All right, there we go.
Ah, we, we missed whatever that was.
Yeah.
So we're the, uh, the portfolio camp.
Mute your mic.
Now.
I'm thirsty.
I'm so thirsty.
Now we're trying to talk about that damn stock market over here.
(21:33):
This is why we're not getting rich.
You see what I have to put up? Yeah.
Yeah.
All.
This is the worst I've seen us in a while.
We're only 3%, 3% lifetime.
That's total gain.
(21:53):
Yeah.
Five.
Yeah.
This, uh, this, I know you're on top of your retirement accounts as much as we are and yeah.
This is kind of what our, uh, retirement account is looking like too.
It's like, oh, damn, we gave back an awful lot.
I'm not listening.
I don't wanna hear that.
I know.
Don't even look.
I know this.
I'm not looking.
This is a comedy podcast, so, uh, Gallo's humor, right? We we're broke.
(22:14):
We're broke.
No way.
It'll come back.
It'll circle back two days.
Oh, liberation day coming.
He's coming.
It come, come back.
It'll come back after his third term.
Yeah.
Yeah, man, who knows? Is this a Tesla short hair? That is a Tesla Short.
Yeah.
So we're making money today.
We're making money long term.
(22:34):
We picked a brilliant time to short Tesla.
Yeah.
We're also short halme.
And that one did, has done really, really well.
What's that one? Halme.
They have a, we short them Halme.
Yeah.
We're short halme.
Hmm, aren't we? Yes we are.
No, we're not.
No, not mine.
We're short mentum.
That's the one that's Yeah.
Yeah.
The ones that like Kailyn just had in her portfolio because like, uh, Robin Hood gave them to her for free.
(22:58):
Those don't do so good.
It's kinda, it's kinda, yeah, that's real.
I find that so surprising.
It's really weird.
That's scratcher.
Reddi is tr that's, yeah.
Every single one they've ever given me basically is worth nothing.
Now, uh, Novo Nordisk down 45%.
They are getting crushed.
Yeah, it sucks.
Wegovy.
Wegovy is just getting crushed.
(23:18):
Eli Lilly is beating him.
Beating him back.
Yeah.
Reddit has done awesome.
Uh, the one I was going to point out to everybody 'cause I know that we follow Fannie May.
We've done, we've done great.
But hey, look at this price.
Remember what I say? Uh, bye.
Buying the five.
Go ahead.
Buying the five.
Sell the sevens.
That's right, man.
(23:38):
Take us to the chart.
Here's the chart.
And loading the chart.
It's loading.
Yeah.
Uh, not that chart.
We don't care about that.
We want the one year chart, eh, maybe the six month chart.
Maybe the one month chart.
No, six month.
So I mean, yeah.
Look, here's the fives.
These are the fives.
These are the sevens.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
It's just that easy.
(23:59):
Lots of little good opportunities.
Yeah.
This is what we call range bound.
Range.
That right Bound from five something to seven something.
Yeah.
If you open up the five year chart, then you can see what I bought, like Fannie Mae.
I mean, it's all the same before five years, so No, no.
Fannie Mae has the most, Fannie Mae has the most amazing chart there is.
Here we go.
Boom.
(24:20):
That is, yeah.
This is where we are now.
$6 26 cents.
Here's the peaks in the seventies.
Yeah.
75 bucks.
Yeah, I, yeah.
Oh, 70.
The mortgage crisis changed a little before.
Yeah.
How are we doing? It's the best, the baseline s and p, the s and p 500.
Well, you remember we were up 3% Lifetime.
It's down 1.26%
(24:41):
lifetime.
Oh man, they're yes.
Still winning.
Chipping away at us today.
Still winning.
We're still winning.
Still winning.
And uh, here's the deal.
Geez, you've got to save the guest portfolio because it is down almost 5%.
So they're in third place outta three, although coming back 1% at a time.
What's going on today that they're making so much money? Kroger is the stock of choice.
(25:06):
I only Kroger Pulte Homes.
Andrea's amazing pick is uh, down 29% since the day.
Just give it a little time.
Let's give it time.
Yeah.
It's coming back.
Liberation Day, right around the corner.
Am I right? Listen, we're in a housing shortage, guys.
Now Justin has this, has this play on, which is the, um, we call it the Justin tariff portfolio.
(25:28):
It was the day the tariffs were announced.
Go out and buy the biggest losers that day and see how they do.
Um, once they take the tariffs off, now they haven't taken the tariffs off, but he's down 3%.
And compared to if you'd have bought.
Just put the same money into the market market's.
Also down on 3%, a little more than 3%, so right.
(25:49):
So, so he's hanging in there.
But, uh, we'll see what, it'll come soaring back after Donald Trump, uh, takes these.
Well, Janice, do you have a selection to add to the guest portfolio? Let's add Nordstrom.
All right.
Let's take a look at, nor, I believe it's J-S-E-J-W-N, is the letters you're looking for.
Oh yes.
Sorry.
I misspoke.
(26:09):
All right.
Sell us, uh, Nordstrom.
Shall we look at the chart first? Well, today they're down a hair.
Okay.
Yeah.
That's okay.
Yeah.
Everything's down right now.
Loading the chart.
Talk amongst yourselves.
I just like it because it's just, you can find a lot of, you know, the look for less, for less.
Less than what? Where can you get At the rack? At the, at the rack.
(26:30):
Oh, at the rack.
Yeah.
Which is under the same stock number and it just, so a lot of.
Yeah, so did I have the, I don't know if they've announced anything like this.
We were looking last week.
That makes me, makes me wanna shorten it.
Uh, like we, we've been looking at, like, I know the target's closing a lot of locations.
(26:52):
We were looking at various retail outlets last week when we were like, has that have, like the online shopping affected your store going experience? Does it give you any hesitation with Nordstrom? Say that question one more time.
Sure.
Like the, like have you shifted more of your, your shopping to online and like, or does that give you any Yes, definitely.
(27:13):
Like Poshmark.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But if I do shop, like I do, like going to the wrap, this makes me want to go to like the, um, investor presentations and, okay.
Did you see anything that says, uh, investor presentation? Here we go.
Let's see.
Uh, they reported fourth quarter net earnings of 165 million or 97 cents per share.
Uh, and EBITDA EBIT of 2 73, which is a Buck 10 a share, uh, for the year.
(27:41):
The earnings were two 94 million, so a buck 74 a share.
Fourth quarter total company comparable sales.
So the sales increase 4.7%
mm-hmm.
Versus 2023 in fourth quarter.
And the banner comparable stores increased 5.3%
in Nordstrom Rack.
Is prompts three and a half.
Three and a half.
(28:01):
Not bad, not bad.
Uh, yeah, we were, um, yeah, we were taking a good, hard look.
So we, we looked at Macy's last week, as you guys know.
'cause you listen.
That's right.
That's right.
Mm-hmm.
And, uh, I couldn't remember what it was in.
So, and, uh, definitely the bright spot of Macy's lineup was the luxury, which is, uh, which is Bloomingdale's and Blue Mercury.
(28:26):
So, mm.
You know, if you like that play, then um, then you like Nordstrom, I could see you saying, well, I don't, why would I want, why would I want flagship Macy's, this mid-range store? If I could just have, uh, if I could just have the luxury ones.
Yeah.
Go to the news section.
All right.
Back there.
Back in, yeah.
(28:46):
Let's go find news from December 23rd, 2024.
Yeah.
Um, okay, I'll, I'll show.
People are like, shit, Christmas.
Got it right.
Uh, news damnit, it's Christmas again.
(29:07):
I feel like it was Christmas.
Just last December.
Um, six days ago, seven days.
Screen talk.
Yeah.
Well, I'm scrolling through.
Uh, yeah, that's fine.
I don't know.
At least we can all look together.
I'm bored with them.
You're bored.
Yeah.
You're always bored.
During the podcast, she hates the podcast.
The only person, the only person who hates the podcast more than Andre is Cody.
(29:29):
Tell, tell, wait.
Why? Okay.
This was, this was the best.
So we're in the kitchen cooking, and Cody can't find the, the scale.
You know the scale that you all weigh your, well, this one back here, that's the one Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That you guys weigh your gummy beer on.
And I said, well, you know, it's probably on the third floor in the podcasting room.
And he's like, ah, don't get me started about the podcast.
(29:51):
He's like, do you know what really kills me is when dad uses the podcast as an excuse not to parent.
So one day, one day, a few weeks ago, dad said he had to work.
He couldn't pick me up.
And I come to find out he's podcasting.
That is not work.
He says to me, I disagree.
(30:12):
So God gets rich.
I mean, takes find him.
Yeah.
I'll tell you this, it takes a lot of work.
Yeah.
It is a lot of work doing this podcasting, as Kayla knows.
Tell, tell all everything you did for the podcast last week.
It is, it is a lot of work.
That's true.
I just slave away on this podcast.
Night and day.
Um, alright.
That's it.
We're in the building.
Yes.
Yep.
Safe, safe.
12.
Yeah.
(30:32):
12, 13 years from now.
We might, uh.
We might be able to sell this.
I might have a salary again.
We might be able to sell this podcast for, Hey, we gonna sell this podcast for millions.
Yes.
That's our plan.
Caitlyn, I have a question, but it's not really for you.
Okay.
But it's for the two others.
But you can, you can opine if, if you, you feel it's necessary.
(30:53):
Go ahead.
I woke up this morning.
And I just said, today's the day.
I think I don't, I just don't wanna be a responsible adult anymore.
No, I, I'm familiar with this feeling.
I, I know.
That's why, Caitlin, this, this is your opportunity to be a life coach right here.
(31:13):
It has manifested before your eyes.
You continue.
I found, I found myself at church yesterday in a conversation with two other women.
Mm-hmm.
And, um, one of them said, how's the starting up, the new business going? And I said, oh yeah, it's going good.
And I gave her some updates and the other woman said, I didn't know you were starting another business.
And she said, I don't understand.
(31:34):
Why are you so motivated? And the, so then they basically just started ganging up on me and telling me about how all the ways.
You know, they are not motivated and they would be on the couch or they'd be riding their bike or they'd be finding all these things to do.
And I, gosh, got to scratch in my head thinking, yeah, shoot, that's what I was supposed to do.
You were born motivated, I think you went to physical with a briefcase.
(31:56):
Like Yeah, that's, that's, uh, I can envision that for sure, little Andrea.
In a suit in preschool, you, you just always want what you don't have, right? Yeah.
Women, women with straight hair want curly hair with curly hair, want straight hair.
And uh, so if you're a, if you're a motivated, uh, person, not what you wanted, really unmotivated.
(32:17):
I mean, I just woke up today and I didn't wanna go take my final exam and I didn't wanna go to the dentist.
It was raining.
It's the weather, it's the weather.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
It doesn't rain that often.
Janice, in just today.
You totally supposed to rain for the next 35 days.
Yeah, it's gonna be awful.
Oh, that's like awful.
Our snow here.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
All right, moving on.
(32:38):
So, wait, there was a question in there.
Yeah, yeah.
A question for someone, but.
No, I don't know.
Maybe I just needed to share and get it off my soul, but I, I really, really just wanna be on the couch watching tv.
Alright, what, so you say, but I think that's what you, that you need to do a little introspection here.
I know about who you are.
Who are you as a human? Are you a sit on the couch and do nothing person like me? No.
(33:00):
You are a go do build businesses, make things happen for it might last for 20 minutes tops.
I think.
I think what you need is.
Um, quiet connection, postpartum mental health.
Did, and that will did give it a five.
Yes, of course.
I gave it a five.
I give 'em all fives.
I'm like, this is an amazing podcast, an amazing resource for all of you out there.
(33:22):
And then you sign off.
Roberta, I, it, it tags my real name on there because it's Apple, uh, it's Apple Podcasts.
But, um, that, wait, that just made me think of something.
I use Siri a lot, right? So I'll say, Hey, Siri, text Robert Kimmel.
Hey Siri, call Robert Kimmel.
Right? And all of a sudden, out of the blue last week, it said back to me for the first time, calling Robert Kimmel.
(33:49):
And I'm like, I heard it.
Yeah, it hurt.
It heard me calling Robert Robbert enough times that instead, even though I said, call Robert Kimmel Siri now says back to me Robert Kimmel.
Can you believe that? I don't like this taking over.
I don't like it either.
Yeah.
Nope.
I turn that shit off.
I'm like, don't listen to me.
(34:10):
I don't want you listening.
Stop listening.
Especially Siri.
cause Siri's freaking useless.
Yeah.
You're like, uh, hey, send a text message, blah, blah, blah, blah B, and it spins and then it like dies.
You're like, it just, I'm driving.
I'm trying not to hit things.
All right.
So if we could all just go shopping this afternoon and buy one item that we just are pining after, what would that be? Salad.
(34:36):
I don't know what to think.
You have to think salad.
Calin, you're such a rabbit.
I'd buy a car.
Andrea, I'd buy a car.
Or you for me? No, lets get real.
Nobody knows what they would go buy if they decided they could go spend some money.
I already said salad that.
How much are we talking? Not a good answer.
That's what I would, what I would say.
(34:56):
We decided you're gonna treat yourself a retail therapy appropriate couple, because obviously what Andrea needs is retail therapy On this great day, she's gotta go.
She's gotta get a marshals.
You don't have a list like in your notes, in your phone of like, no.
Things you really want that you're buying.
They're wire, the, the incident are wired treadmill differently.
Treadmill, yeah.
She wants a treadmill for, to keep my son safe.
(35:18):
'cause he likes to go running on the streets at night and I hate it.
And it's want to, what was the item? But what? Do a treadmill.
Oh, okay.
But what do you want for you? World.
Yes.
No, she's, she's like us.
Yeah, she's, yes.
Andrea, like what you have to do is learn to be happy, as with what you have.
Calin wants for nothing.
I want a salad.
(35:41):
The other day I was like in a super salad mood and I, I had like three bags of salad plus like the box of spinach.
In one day.
Oh my God.
Crazy.
Uh, actually the part of, did anybody, uh, watch? Nobody wants this? No.
What is that now? Oh that.
(36:02):
Oh, that, uh, with the Jew, uh, Jewish, uh, okay.
I, I can't listen if you guys are not gonna be materialistic and watch TV shows, I cannot come on this podcast.
I watched it.
Okay.
Well, the best you, the best scene was when the best, the best scene was.
When did you see it? No.
Okay.
The, uh, rabbi is with his girlfriend and they're in a sex shop and they bump into some other old man from his church, uh, from his, uh, what's it called, synagogue.
(36:30):
Yeah.
And so he can get super embarrassed that he sees his rabbi, the sex shop, but what makes it worse is he is not with his wife.
He's with another woman.
Yeah.
Scandalous.
So the episode, no, and the ra, he's the junior rabbi, so he is nervous about getting fired and so.
Uh, the senior rabbi calls him in the office and he's like, I need you to explain something to me.
And he starts to hem and haw and he says, how did you get Morty Anderson to donate $25,000 to the synagogue? You know? Yeah.
(36:59):
And it was, uh, anyway, so it was very clever the way, the way these sitcoms are so clever in wrapping up there.
But you should, uh, kalin, I think you'll enjoy that one.
Ah, I think you would enjoy a trip to the sex shop also, so maybe we'll both do, we'll both try new things when I come to town.
Okay.
Alright.
You could, uh, I, I'll I'll think on it.
I'll think on it.
But you propose for the vacation, the secret spring break.
(37:22):
What am I proposing? What? No, when are we gonna propose? Oh yeah, we gotta schedule that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Face.
Yeah.
What's the final decision? Yeah, guys, keep your, keep your mind on the, yeah.
Focus, focus, focus.
What the job at hand are we, are you buying north shrimp or shorting it? People will bring us back to, uh, the straw.
I think Macy's.
I mean, if you want Dr.
If you want long and you want short, what would you do? Like a collar or something like that? A collar.
(37:46):
I mean, given that it's had like zero volatility, you could, uh, you could sell the vault.
Is it trading? I don't know what any of this means.
By the way, Denise, if you, Denise, if you dunno what they're talking about right now, like I don't know what this still, the color talk is.
I can smile and nod.
I barely know what it Yeah, same.
Same too.
I barely know.
I don't know why these are all zeros, but I don't understand.
Refresh it, the market's open.
(38:09):
It hasn't traded a single share today.
No, it has.
It's just not pulling up.
Oh, okay.
Either it is in fact even, or it's uh, yeah.
All right.
I'm gonna go out on a limb.
Yeah.
Let's do this.
Denise, that's up if you trust me.
I do.
We short it.
Okay.
Let's try it.
I would also point out that she wanted Pulte homes was her last choice, which has totally tanked the, uh, portfolio.
(38:33):
So just saying, uh, did Denise and we already went through.
Every short that we've ever done is turn into a design.
No, we're, we're good.
I wanna say one thing.
When I recommended Pulte.
I literally thought Kamala was gonna win, and I feel like, sounds like poultry we would've been in.
It's not.
That's as good a reason to invest in it as we need on our podcast.
(38:53):
Okay, so in my defense, okay, I thought we were gonna have a different administration under which I honestly believe it would be doing better now you can give me all kinds of shit if shorting This dog was not the right way to go.
But as my friend, do you trust me enough to short this up? Yes, absolutely.
(39:17):
Laying on the line here.
Do you wanna go? Should we go long Calin in the, in the gear rich portfolio? I think so.
Alright.
It's on.
We're going, we're going long.
And you guys are going short and we're gonna see bring it.
Oh, right.
What a perfect way to, to, uh, wrap this up.
Janice, did you have a good time on a podcast today? It was so much fun.
Thank you so much for.
(39:37):
Jen, thank you so much for coming.
Jane Denise didn't even care about coming on the podcast.
What she really wanted to do was wear the headphones that, I mean, if I had given her a boom mic, she would've been out of her mind.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I feel like you're pitch too, you know? Yeah, you should.
Yeah.
All right.
We'll send you the, uh, yeah, either way, we'll send you the raw file to edit.
(40:00):
If I could have that back by this time, tomorrow on it.
Sure.
Cart, we need to go from about an hour to about 18 minutes.
Do you think you could, uh, no.
No? All right.
Hey, yeah, see you next time.
Bye bye, Janice.
Bye bye bye.
I was just looking like our best episode had 500 something downloads and then lately we've been, we've been lucky to break three triple digits, you know? So, yeah, I don't know.
(40:32):
I don't know either.
We need some, not only worried about it, I suppose, but I mean I, yeah, I don't really know what to do about, I mean, maybe we'll see what happens when we have the dude from Madagascar on.
I guess maybe that'll.
Yeah, maybe that cross platform.
I mean, that seems to be the big thing that podcasts people do to like expand audience from what I can see, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
(40:55):
Another thing they do is they host on topics people wanna listen to.
I mean, I guess, I don't know, like I talked to a couple friends about what they, their favorite, their favorite podcast, and a lot of 'em are just like, oh, I just like listening to these two people talk about nothing.
Like there's, I can't remember what.
What it is when, when it's like these two guys talking about the idea is talking about sports, but they like Yeah, most of the time the vast majority of the episode are not talking about sports, which I'm like, that's our recipe.
(41:23):
That's right.
That's us right there.
Like just substitute in music type music, money.
Um, this is the music podcast.
I couldn't name you one musician that's famous right now, you know, that's new to being famous in the past five years, but, uh, Adele, well, I don't know how long she's been famous, say longer than five years.
(41:43):
Somewhere in the five year range.
Yeah, yeah.
But, uh, yeah, Adele is really good though, I have to say.
So yeah, she is quite talented.
That's true.
I would do the gummy bear, but I don't have the scale so I can eat some.
And leave or, or we can leave well enough alone.
Yeah.
I say we skip it.
I don't know.
All right.
Fine.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Or if you do wanna do it, fucking do it.
(42:04):
Have have a bite.

Something like that.
Oh yeah.

We have had food nutri bad for a minute.
Um, I know I, one thing we, I, I didn't, uh, we didn't get the chance to like, you know, taunt.
(42:48):

I was waiting for that.
Be like, eh.
Yeah.

Two ounces less, maybe amounted a half less than it did.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Before he took those bites.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's exactly right.
Alright.
Yeah.
Well, so we're on episode 47 today, and I'm gonna be there in two weeks, I think, right? Is that right? I hope that's not right.

(44:59):
I, I have seen it.
I feel, I'm like, I find it in, for whatever reason, that one, I'm like, man, I'm feel embarrassed.
I feel like I look stupid.
How about like, there's loads that are worse, like as far as me looking dumb, like, oh, now it's the second, it's now our second most watched ever.
Man.
It's gonna usurp the number one spot for sure.
(45:21):
Um, well, well, well, nobody, uh, nobody, uh, we've got 86% like, and no one has written a about how this.
Hostess is a dummy or anything, so, yeah.
How about education system has failed me? Yeah.
Well, which is good because they're pretty ruthless.
They're, they, um, anyway, I haven't looked at the comments lately.
(45:44):
Maybe it's too better if I don't.
It is.
Well, I'd delete the, I'm like, uh, I delete the, I delete the bad ones anyway, so.
Oh yeah.
Have there been some mean ones.
It may happen here, here and there.

We didn't say we're good at this.
We were near all this stuff.

All right, welcome.
That's the perfect segue to this is kinda how it goes.
Every single time guys is like, think it's just a fucking shit show.
And then we start recording and then we like, wait.
I wanna know why Caly looks like Eric Church today.
I don't know who Eric Church is, so I won't answer.
Oh yeah, you're, you're breaking my heart.
(01:47):
Have to, obviously we gotta look him up, so, yeah.
I don't know if that's like, like this one for example.
So I'm looking super girly apparently.
Uh, but I'm hearing, I think it's really just the aviator sunglasses.
Just the sunglasses as you can, as you can see this one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, um, yeah, so I, I just got up, but, um, so, so, no, no, no.
(02:14):
I am makeup today and, and then I was redoing the art stuff in my room and I didn't have anything on the wall, so I was like, okay, I'll just be like undercover and like you hung up.
Always hung over.
I assume you're hungover sunglasses.
Were you party, were you partying last night, Kaly? No, no.
(02:35):
I, uh, I, I did stay up super late, but not, like, not for any fun reason.
I have, I, for whatever I was thinking that today was the day we were meeting with the, uh, the, uh, Aussie and not, I, I got like the dates mixed up and I have a, I have a doctor's appointment that, a little medical procedure that I am dreading later, and so it.
(02:56):
Kept me up last night, so gotta do an IUD swap, so, oh no.
Yeah.
So, hi Janice.
Hi Jen.
Thanks for having me on your podcast.
I'm so glad you, I'm so glad you wanted to be on it.
I was really excited.
You're the first person to like to, to ask to be on.
Yeah.
I'm excited to see you guys get Rich.
(03:17):
I know.
Yeah.
Yay.
How's that going for you, Kaylyn? It's going great so far.
Well, well, I mean, I guess I shouldn't, I I, since it's the two of us, we got, we gotta pull up the portfolio already if we're, should we say that? Okay.
We'll go.
Alright.
Well, I, I actually was hoping I was gonna hear about the garage shale that you're about to make a ton of money on.
(03:38):
Oh.
Yeah, there's gonna be a garage sale.
We're gonna get crazy rich from that.
So are you selling all the Poshmark items outta your closet? Because there's like, well, Mr.
Poshmark, the dress I have on this.
I see.
Yeah.
There you go.
Yeah.
Poshmark.
Uh, yeah.
Janice, you have a bit of a posh mark problem.
I What kind of problem? No.
Okay.
Alright.
(04:00):
You're saving money.
You're saving money, but how often are you buying? Oh, maybe once every couple of months.
Oh, that's not bad.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If that, if that's a problem, then if that's your worst problem, then you're really pretty.
Yeah.
I also buy once every couple of months, so Yeah.
Just when you 50 items, when you do Oh, no, no.
(04:21):
I mean, for Poshmark.
For Poshmark, I don't, I, I generally don't buy that, that many items.
Yeah.
Sell as many as you can, but don't buy, uh, don't buy very many.
Yeah.
I, I don't, it's too like, it doesn't make a lot of sense for me for like the resell, unless I like really want an item and then just.
I don't want to wanna wear it once or something, but like, because they, they charge so much for shipping and stuff on Poshmark that it doesn't make sense for like, for me to buy it from somebody and then resell it.
(04:49):
I'd have to like.
Resell it for quite a bit.
I have done it with some, some things actually that's, I shouldn't, it's like, lately I've been fighting like, like Jimmy Chu shoes.
I just got two pairs of Jimmy Chew shoes on Poshmark for like ridiculously cheap, like 30 bucks.
What? For, for Jimmy shoes that are in good shape.
So like both of those are now listed, like, yeah.
(05:10):
How many listings do you have? Uh, 480 ish.
Wow.
Whoa.
Yeah.
Yeah.
How many sales? Um.
Let's go to my stats.
Uh, you want me to tell you this stuff from memory? What? Yeah.
Geez.
(05:30):
All right.
All right.
Hang on.
I didn't know it was gonna be the, the third degree when I got, I know Inquisition here, man.
Like.
Look at me.
I just rolled outta bed.
I gotta answer all these.
Like, look.
Alright, questions about Poshmark and I didn't know I was gonna to reveal this kind of information.
Um, I'll take your social security number also.
(05:54):
No problem.
Uh, right.
My posh at, so.
All right.
Um, I have, uh, 463, uh, listings.
Currently.
I have, uh, made uh, 824 sales.
Wow.
Yeah.
We're just getting rich.
Yes, that's right.
(06:15):
Yeah.
Her total value of all our listings is like 80 grand or something.
Right.
But that they take her profits and invest in Poshmark.
'cause they're, they're traded on the, you know.
In the stock.
You could do that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Have you thought of that? Are I, I don't.
Are they probably, I don't think they have.
They go, they're, I looked, I did my research before coming up.
Oh yeah.
Jana came to play today.
Don't, yeah, not me.
(06:37):
I did not.
I left that to Janice.
She has a couple of stocks to pitch us on today.
No, I know.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We shouldn't waste our time with this, Janice.
Like, do you care about people being posh ambassadors? I, I, what is a posh ambassador? See, see, that's, that's exactly the reaction that I was expecting to get from a, like, I love notes.
(06:58):
P What is, what is, yeah.
Yeah.
Poshmark has decided they want this to be a social site, even though they make it like very hard to like communicate with people on there, but they want it to be social like.
It's not, no, not at all.
Um, but basically a posh ambassador.
You gotta have a, a few like things that you have to tick off.
Um, you have to have, have shipping less than in three days on your average.
(07:24):
You have to have a, your, uh, like you have to have, re-list your items at least 5,000 times and share other people's things.
Oh, like 5,000 times and have one love note, whatever.
Um, yeah, it's supposed to basically mean that you're like, you're very dedicated to like being a good Poshmark seller, but like.
(07:45):
For someone like me, my, because I've sold, you know, 800 something to things and like I've had problems with U-S-P-S-A few times.
My average shipping rate is now at 3.2
days to get that down under three with an, with that many items, like I'd have to be shipping things on day one and they'd have to absolutely be like.
(08:07):
Tracked.
Right.
I'd depend on USPS to like be scanning them as they should.
Um, within the hour you're gonna be getting kicked off, right? Yeah, right.
Um, in order for me to ever get that below three days, so I'll never get to be a posh ambassador.
Um, but, but you know, Kaylen, I believe in you.
No, I, I, I mean, I also don't care about being one because.
It doesn't seem to be any benefit.
(08:29):
I, I've never been like, Hmm, should I really get this item that I really like? I don't know.
They're not an ambassador, so like, you know, I, I've never thought that, so I.
I don't know.
It, it sounds like, uh, like an Airbnb Superhost, which you would actually make a decision based off of, you know? Yeah.
Versus like, right.
(08:50):
And like, I'd be, I did become a Superhost, I think, um, or I was on my way to doing it because they like, they like sent a photographer to like, you know, professional photographer to take pictures of my place and stuff so that, because they were just kinda getting started with, with the Superhost thing though.
Then I, and then I made like, stop doing Airbnb.
But, um.
But I can tell you something right now about Airbnb.
(09:11):
I decided this when I, uh, was checking out of, uh, the Airbnb in Utah last week.
I don't give a shit what it says about you or what it says about me as someone who stays because it's all a game everywhere.
You stay now, they text you immediately and say, well, I'll give you five stars if you give me five stars.
And the Uber guys, as soon as you get out, they're like, please gimme five stars.
(09:33):
You know? Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
I never worry about my rating as an Uber.
Passenger either like, I don't know.
I mean, I, I, a couple years back I like compared with people.
I was like, I don't, I don't take Uber all that often.
It's almost always been for work to and from the airport and stuff.
Yeah.
Just because I, I don't know.
I don't like, I'm kind of lame, so I don't go out that much.
(09:54):
And, uh, like.
I'm with a couple of my friends who like party a lot.
Like I know that they've been in Ubers and had one of their party throw up in the Uber, like not, but my rating was the lowest.
And I'm like, what the hell man? Like when like, what did I do? I just like get in.
I'm like quiet.
I like put my headphones on, you know? 'cause usually it's going to the airport and I'm like, I don't really wanna like have this whole thing you and I talking about stuff because like.
(10:22):
You are the Uber driver.
I don't, I, how long have you been doing this? Oh, like, oh, cool.
Like, just that conversation.
I don't need to have it.
Like, we can just, you do you and I'll do me back here.
And, uh, but apparently, oh shit.
That was my alarm.
Uh, oh, man.
You can have a, you can have like Uber strategy.
Stories like, oh yeah, I like to, I get, what I do is I get up at 5:00 AM and then I drive to the downtown part of town.
(10:45):
And then you, you, you're not like wicked into that.
Like, well, I've had that conversation enough times that I'm like, I don't care.
Like, you know, this is whatever.
When I was doing it for, when I was at 3M, I did it all the time.
Took Uber all the time, and so I was taking early morning Ubers and all of those people, you see the same ones after a while.
And I'm like, anyway, so I'm like, man, this guy threw up in the back of a cab or whatever in the back of this Uber.
(11:12):
He's got a better rating than me.
Just 'cause I'm like, Hey, I'm just gonna put on headphones.
So, you know, I don't like that.
We live in this society where everything you do is, there's an expectation that I'm gonna give you a rating and you're gonna give a rating.
Everything tip.
Or a tip.
Or a tip.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, I have to tell you, speaking of ratings though, I have to tell you, uh, we cheat on this podcast and we trade ratings with other podcasts.
(11:35):
I, I would trade it with your friend, but you won't send me her goddamn podcast.
I'll, I'll send you her podcast.
But, um, let me tell you the past couple that I've been assigned.
Hang on.
Talk amongst yourselves.
Yeah, yeah.
Hey, Calin.
Sometimes it's fun to talk like about their like story though, like you don't have to talk about their.
Uber strategy, like where they're driving? No, no, no.
(11:56):
This is where you and Kaylyn are different.
Yeah.
I know you like to, do you like to hear that story? No.
And have that interaction.
Don't Kaylyn wants to put the dark glasses on.
Th th this person doesn't exist to me.
Like they, they're like a person for a moment.
They might as well be a robot.
I don't like, yeah.
I'm like, I have, I have no interest in any sort of connection with you whatsoever.
(12:17):
Like, like I spoke with a man from the Congo and.
You were speaking French, it was awesome.
Uh, yeah, I'd be like, uh, parley.
I'll just pretend to sleep.
Parley.
Seriously, the last time I actually was, the last time I was coming to Cleveland and I was like running late and I get this guy, this, I wasn't planning to take the Uber, but uh, anyway, like.
(12:43):
Mom and dad fucked up.
Yes, yes.
That's right.
And like, man, the guy was like, this was like the chattiest old man driver.
Like it's, it's like I'm running late and he's driving.
Well, he's got nothing to worry about.
He's so slow.
He's so slow.
And I'm like, oh, okay.
I am like, we start, we're like, I'm chatting a little bit and I'm like, man, boy, I hope I catch this flight.
(13:07):
Sure it's cutting it close.
I shouldn't have made this decision, like, you know, and he is like, oh, I'll do my best to get you there quickly.
And then he gets a call from like his, he's like, oh, do you mind if I take this call? It's my wife and I've been worried about her.
And I'm like, are you fucking kidding me? Yeah.
Answer the phone, like, of course you should talk to your wi your wife, you've been concerned about.
(13:27):
And I'm like, perfect opportunity.
Like put on my, put in my headphones to like, turn it up like it.
And so he, then he's talking and I hear, I can kind of hear that he is getting off the phone, and I'm like, man, okay, now I better just like.
Really show, here's my ear.
See how it's got something.
You are like, I heard him start to talk to me.
I kept looking out the window.
(13:47):
I just was like, I can't hear this guy.
I'm just gonna pretend I can't hear you.
You talk to your wife.
I'm glad things are, I'm glad she's safe.
Small talk is your idea of hell.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Well with Uber drivers in particular, right? Yeah.
But it also in general.
Yeah.
I dunno.
So here are the podcast that we have traded ratings with.
These are the last three that I was assigned.
(14:09):
Um.
In, in order the three times ago.
Love your life.
Show personal growth, mindset and habits for busy moms.
Then came.
In case that wasn't inappropriate enough.
The next one after that was quiet connection, postpartum mental health, and you're an expert on that topic.
(14:32):
And then I got assigned single parent success stories and, um, all right, lemme set this one up for you.
So the, uh, the woman who was being interviewed was a, uh, was.
Born and raised in China.
She was an orphan who couldn't walk, uh, due to like polio.
Yeah.
So she, uh, she migrated to the United States on her own, uh, taught herself enough to become a medical assistant.
(14:59):
So Wednesday is Liberation Day.
What's everybody's plans for Liberation Day? When did Liberation Day Liberation from, where are we liberated from? I think we're being liberated from a decent economy, is what I'm guessing.
Oh, Donald Trump is, this is the, this is the date that all the tariffs go into effect.
And, uh, and uh, so he's called it.
(15:21):
Called it Liberation Day.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
So I'm deciding if I'm gonna buy a new car before then.
What? A new car? You should, no, you gotta wait for a couple of weeks until I get there.
Okay.
Then you'll be on schedule.
But I can't pay six.
To $10,000 more calin.
It's now, yeah.
I mean you are on an airplane now before liberation day.
(15:41):
See, so this is how this works.
This is the first I'm hearing about, like thinking about getting a new car and tomorrow we will have a new car.
That's how, that's how we operate.
Yeah.
She loves the Maserati, but it is like a little something, too much gas or something.
So the best thing to do, well, the tires are only good for every 12 to 15,000 miles.
(16:04):
So, and that's a $3,500 bill every time.
How about bw? They're like the highest rated luxury car in on consumer reports.
I like b We have one.
We have one of those.
Now Janice is at the opposite end of the spectrum.
She'll be like, we're thinking about getting a new car.
That's nice.
And then in about 12 years, yeah, that's, that's that's my schedule.
Yeah.
For new cars.
Roughly new car.
(16:25):
Never used car.
Uh, well, yeah.
I mean the last was like, I did buy my, the Nissan.
That was in 2011 and, uh, drove that until I totaled it recently, you know, recently.
How's your, how's your hybrid? Uh, I hate that car.
It's like a super old man car.
Like, and like, I don't know to contain, 'cause you have to do like the battery and the gas.
(16:50):
System.
I mean, I guess so guess I don't do any of that.
No, I don't do any maintenance.
No.
Yeah, yeah.
I just about.
Oh yeah, the light comes on and you just keep on driving, like, yeah, that's right.
Then I go to, I went to Discount Tire 'cause I was like, I think my tires might be getting a little low.
(17:12):
I don't know, the light's been blinking at me for a while and they were like, yeah, the pressure's supposed to be at, uh, 25 years or at 13 for all of them.
Um, so yeah, so I don't worry, I don't sweat it, you know, with that maintenance stuff, you know.
So you, you did recently buy A BMW.
How did you get.
The, how did this process happen given that you're Oh, and for the love of all things and you bought a new house, like, I mean, all of a sudden, like the dam burst or something, right? And you, or you, maybe it's your mental dam, you're like, enough's enough, Dan.
(17:44):
Yeah.
Yeah.
Sometimes you just gotta let go of that.
Just bye.
Well, the house search took a long time though, because, well, they all take a long time.
They can buy at certain prices, right? With with Dan the man.
Yes.
Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes.
So they, you got a really good, they called him Danny deal breaker for like a stomach.
Yeah.
Danny deal breaker.
(18:04):
That's the, yeah, yeah.
Yep.
That's what's I'll call him next time I see him for sure.
So when Andre buys a house, right, it's like, this is the house I want, I love this house.
Uh uh.
No price is no object.
We're gonna win this bid.
I got a sense that Dan's approach is a little different than that.
A little bit different.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a very thorough, exhausting.
(18:27):
Uh, therapy induced self-medicate with uh oh yeah.
With alcohol.
Yeah.
But this, this last process really worked for you.
'cause they got this place called the wellness.
We call it the wellness Center.
It's on 16 acres.
Right? 18 acres.
And it's got waterfalls and I don't know.
I'm jealous every time I go over there.
(18:47):
Well, you can always come.
Okay.
Go ahead.
That was, that was actually like our second experience.
'cause we also rented out the Cambridge.
Right.
Um, it turns out like.
If you've lost money on a property, like renting it out until the market bounces back.
Not such a great strategy, at least not for us.
Mm-hmm.
'cause we don't like dealing with this baloney.
I've had great experience with my tenants, but I, but I'm also, like my price point was right.
(19:10):
Kind of at the place that I think, so once you are renting a place for over a certain amount, and I don't like, I, I know more for the Houston market than for anything else, but, um.
Like, then you get, you start to get high end and then people expect you to be really on top of everything and like things to be at a certain level and da da dah da da.
Um, if you place is too cheap, I mean, I was renting my one bedroom loft, so it's not kinda a different thing, but like if you rent it very low end, then.
(19:37):
People are gonna trash your place, but like, I was sort of in the zone where like people kind of take care of everything, but they're not really expecting a whole lot from you as the landlord or the apartment itself.
So yeah, like my, my tenant, he only complained once and that's when, when the refrigerator broke.
Mm-hmm.
Um, and then he, he called to follow up on me getting a new refrigerator like a week and a half later or something, because I was like trying to find one that I liked, you know, for the right price and all of that.
(20:02):
And he was fine with the taking.
Three weeks total for me to get a new fridge, which I was like, man, I would never put up with this shed, but like, but you did it.
But yeah.
Yeah.
But he, yeah, he was, he was great.
Par paid on time every month and was, you know, if not ahead, he paid me like once, several weeks ahead, but stayed for years.
It took him, it took him like three years to get all of his boxes unpacked.
(20:26):
But, uh, when I would go to like, check up all things, but Red Chick.
Yeah, right.
If the red jet clears, you don't care if tenant boxes there or dead bodies or whatever, you know.
Drugs.
Yeah.
I hope there're boxes of, of illegal substances.
That's fine.
I don't care.
But yeah, it's got the perfect tenant.
Um, so I don't know.
(20:47):
Oh, so we're not rich yet, but we're getting there, getting rich.
Uh, let's, let's see how the portfolio is doing.
Uh, it is.
Yet again, another brutal day on Wall Street, down 1%.
As Liberation day approaches, they're gonna liberate us from all of our unearned, unearned things.
I share.
You gonna share? Yes.
I'll, I am sharing, I'm sharing with two people, just not the third uhoh.
(21:12):
All right, there we go.
Ah, we, we missed whatever that was.
Yeah.
So we're the, uh, the portfolio camp.
Mute your mic.
Now.
I'm thirsty.
I'm so thirsty.
Now we're trying to talk about that damn stock market over here.
(21:33):
This is why we're not getting rich.
You see what I have to put up? Yeah.
Yeah.
All.
This is the worst I've seen us in a while.
We're only 3%, 3% lifetime.
That's total gain.
(21:53):
Yeah.
Five.
Yeah.
This, uh, this, I know you're on top of your retirement accounts as much as we are and yeah.
This is kind of what our, uh, retirement account is looking like too.
It's like, oh, damn, we gave back an awful lot.
I'm not listening.
I don't wanna hear that.
I know.
Don't even look.
I know this.
I'm not looking.
This is a comedy podcast, so, uh, Gallo's humor, right? We we're broke.
(22:14):
We're broke.
No way.
It'll come back.
It'll circle back two days.
Oh, liberation day coming.
He's coming.
It come, come back.
It'll come back after his third term.
Yeah.
Yeah, man, who knows? Is this a Tesla short hair? That is a Tesla Short.
Yeah.
So we're making money today.
We're making money long term.
(22:34):
We picked a brilliant time to short Tesla.
Yeah.
We're also short halme.
And that one did, has done really, really well.
What's that one? Halme.
They have a, we short them Halme.
Yeah.
We're short halme.
Hmm, aren't we? Yes we are.
No, we're not.
No, not mine.
We're short mentum.
That's the one that's Yeah.
Yeah.
The ones that like Kailyn just had in her portfolio because like, uh, Robin Hood gave them to her for free.
(22:58):
Those don't do so good.
It's kinda, it's kinda, yeah, that's real.
I find that so surprising.
It's really weird.
That's scratcher.
Reddi is tr that's, yeah.
Every single one they've ever given me basically is worth nothing.
Now, uh, Novo Nordisk down 45%.
They are getting crushed.
Yeah, it sucks.
Wegovy.
Wegovy is just getting crushed.
(23:18):
Eli Lilly is beating him.
Beating him back.
Yeah.
Reddit has done awesome.
Uh, the one I was going to point out to everybody 'cause I know that we follow Fannie May.
We've done, we've done great.
But hey, look at this price.
Remember what I say? Uh, bye.
Buying the five.
Go ahead.
Buying the five.
Sell the sevens.
That's right, man.
(23:38):
Take us to the chart.
Here's the chart.
And loading the chart.
It's loading.
Yeah.
Uh, not that chart.
We don't care about that.
We want the one year chart, eh, maybe the six month chart.
Maybe the one month chart.
No, six month.
So I mean, yeah.
Look, here's the fives.
These are the fives.
These are the sevens.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
It's just that easy.
(23:59):
Lots of little good opportunities.
Yeah.
This is what we call range bound.
Range.
That right Bound from five something to seven something.
Yeah.
If you open up the five year chart, then you can see what I bought, like Fannie Mae.
I mean, it's all the same before five years, so No, no.

Still winning.
And uh, here's the deal.
Geez, you've got to save the guest portfolio because it is down almost 5%.
So they're in third place outta three, although coming back 1% at a time.
What's going on today that they're making so much money? Kroger is the stock of choice.
(25:06):
I only Kroger Pulte Homes.
Andrea's amazing pick is uh, down 29% since the day.
Just give it a little time.
Let's give it time.
Yeah.
It's coming back.
Liberation Day, right around the corner.
Am I right? Listen, we're in a housing shortage, guys.
Now Justin has this, has this play on, which is the, um, we call it the Justin tariff portfolio.
(25:28):
It was the day the tariffs were announced.
Go out and buy the biggest losers that day and see how they do.
Um, once they take the tariffs off, now they haven't taken the tariffs off, but he's down 3%.
And compared to if you'd have bought.
Just put the same money into the market market's.
Also down on 3%, a little more than 3%, so right.
(25:49):
So, so he's hanging in there.
But, uh, we'll see what, it'll come soaring back after Donald Trump, uh, takes these.
Well, Janice, do you have a selection to add to the guest portfolio? Let's add Nordstrom.
All right.
Let's take a look at, nor, I believe it's J-S-E-J-W-N, is the letters you're looking for.
Oh yes.
Sorry.
I misspoke.
(26:09):
All right.
Sell us, uh, Nordstrom.
Shall we look at the chart first? Well, today they're down a hair.
Okay.
Yeah.
That's okay.
Yeah.
Everything's down right now.
Loading the chart.
Talk amongst yourselves.
I just like it because it's just, you can find a lot of, you know, the look for less, for less.
Less than what? Where can you get At the rack? At the, at the rack.
(26:30):
Oh, at the rack.
Yeah.
Which is under the same stock number and it just, so a lot of.
Yeah, so did I have the, I don't know if they've announced anything like this.
We were looking last week.
That makes me, makes me wanna shorten it.
Uh, like we, we've been looking at, like, I know the target's closing a lot of locations.
(26:52):
We were looking at various retail outlets last week when we were like, has that have, like the online shopping affected your store going experience? Does it give you any hesitation with Nordstrom? Say that question one more time.
Sure.
Like the, like have you shifted more of your, your shopping to online and like, or does that give you any Yes, definitely.
(27:13):
Like Poshmark.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But if I do shop, like I do, like going to the wrap, this makes me want to go to like the, um, investor presentations and, okay.
Did you see anything that says, uh, investor presentation? Here we go.
Let's see.
Uh, they reported fourth quarter net earnings of 165 million or 97 cents per share.
Uh, and EBITDA EBIT of 2 73, which is a Buck 10 a share, uh, for the year.
(27:41):
The earnings were two 94 million, so a buck 74 a share.
Fourth quarter total company comparable sales.
So the sales increase 4.7%
mm-hmm.
Versus 2023 in fourth quarter.
And the banner comparable stores increased 5.3%
in Nordstrom Rack.
Is prompts three and a half.
Three and a half.
(28:01):
Not bad, not bad.
Uh, yeah, we were, um, yeah, we were taking a good, hard look.
So we, we looked at Macy's last week, as you guys know.
'cause you listen.
That's right.
That's right.
Mm-hmm.
And, uh, I couldn't remember what it was in.
So, and, uh, definitely the bright spot of Macy's lineup was the luxury, which is, uh, which is Bloomingdale's and Blue Mercury.
(28:26):
So, mm.
You know, if you like that play, then um, then you like Nordstrom, I could see you saying, well, I don't, why would I want, why would I want flagship Macy's, this mid-range store? If I could just have, uh, if I could just have the luxury ones.
Yeah.
Go to the news section.
All right.
Back there.
Back in, yeah.
(28:46):
Let's go find news from December 23rd, 2024.
Yeah.
Um, okay, I'll, I'll show.

Got it right.
Uh, news damnit, it's Christmas again.
(29:07):
I feel like it was Christmas.
Just last December.
Um, six days ago, seven days.
Screen talk.
Yeah.
Well, I'm scrolling through.
Uh, yeah, that's fine.
I don't know.
At least we can all look together.
I'm bored with them.
You're bored.
Yeah.
You're always bored.
During the podcast, she hates the podcast.
The only person, the only person who hates the podcast more than Andre is Cody.
(29:29):
Tell, tell, wait.
Why? Okay.
This was, this was the best.
So we're in the kitchen cooking, and Cody can't find the, the scale.
You know the scale that you all weigh your, well, this one back here, that's the one Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That you guys weigh your gummy beer on.
And I said, well, you know, it's probably on the third floor in the podcasting room.
And he's like, ah, don't get me started about the podcast.
(29:51):
He's like, do you know what really kills me is when dad uses the podcast as an excuse not to parent.
So one day, one day, a few weeks ago, dad said he had to work.
He couldn't pick me up.
And I come to find out he's podcasting.
That is not work.
He says to me, I disagree.
(30:12):
So God gets rich.
I mean, takes find him.
Yeah.
I'll tell you this, it takes a lot of work.
Yeah.
It is a lot of work doing this podcasting, as Kayla knows.
Tell, tell all everything you did for the podcast last week.
It is, it is a lot of work.
That's true.
I just slave away on this podcast.
Night and day.
Um, alright.
That's it.
We're in the building.
Yes.
Yep.
Safe, safe.
12.
Yeah.
(30:32):
12, 13 years from now.
We might, uh.
We might be able to sell this.
I might have a salary again.
We might be able to sell this podcast for, Hey, we gonna sell this podcast for millions.
Yes.
That's our plan.
Caitlyn, I have a question, but it's not really for you.
Okay.
But it's for the two others.
But you can, you can opine if, if you, you feel it's necessary.
(30:53):
Go ahead.
I woke up this morning.
And I just said, today's the day.
I think I don't, I just don't wanna be a responsible adult anymore.
No, I, I'm familiar with this feeling.
I, I know.
That's why, Caitlin, this, this is your opportunity to be a life coach right here.
(31:13):
It has manifested before your eyes.
You continue.
I found, I found myself at church yesterday in a conversation with two other women.
Mm-hmm.
And, um, one of them said, how's the starting up, the new business going? And I said, oh yeah, it's going good.
And I gave her some updates and the other woman said, I didn't know you were starting another business.
And she said, I don't understand.
(31:34):
Why are you so motivated? And the, so then they basically just started ganging up on me and telling me about how all the ways.
You know, they are not motivated and they would be on the couch or they'd be riding their bike or they'd be finding all these things to do.
And I, gosh, got to scratch in my head thinking, yeah, shoot, that's what I was supposed to do.
You were born motivated, I think you went to physical with a briefcase.
(31:56):
Like Yeah, that's, that's, uh, I can envision that for sure, little Andrea.
In a suit in preschool, you, you just always want what you don't have, right? Yeah.
Women, women with straight hair want curly hair with curly hair, want straight hair.
And uh, so if you're a, if you're a motivated, uh, person, not what you wanted, really unmotivated.
(32:17):
I mean, I just woke up today and I didn't wanna go take my final exam and I didn't wanna go to the dentist.
It was raining.
It's the weather, it's the weather.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
It doesn't rain that often.
Janice, in just today.
You totally supposed to rain for the next 35 days.
Yeah, it's gonna be awful.
Oh, that's like awful.
Our snow here.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
All right, moving on.
(32:38):
So, wait, there was a question in there.
Yeah, yeah.
A question for someone, but.
No, I don't know.
Maybe I just needed to share and get it off my soul, but I, I really, really just wanna be on the couch watching tv.
Alright, what, so you say, but I think that's what you, that you need to do a little introspection here.
I know about who you are.
Who are you as a human? Are you a sit on the couch and do nothing person like me? No.
(33:00):
You are a go do build businesses, make things happen for it might last for 20 minutes tops.
I think.
I think what you need is.
Um, quiet connection, postpartum mental health.
Did, and that will did give it a five.
Yes, of course.
I gave it a five.
I give 'em all fives.
I'm like, this is an amazing podcast, an amazing resource for all of you out there.
(33:22):
And then you sign off.
Roberta, I, it, it tags my real name on there because it's Apple, uh, it's Apple Podcasts.
But, um, that, wait, that just made me think of something.
I use Siri a lot, right? So I'll say, Hey, Siri, text Robert Kimmel.
Hey Siri, call Robert Kimmel.
Right? And all of a sudden, out of the blue last week, it said back to me for the first time, calling Robert Kimmel.
(33:49):
And I'm like, I heard it.
Yeah, it hurt.
It heard me calling Robert Robbert enough times that instead, even though I said, call Robert Kimmel Siri now says back to me Robert Kimmel.
Can you believe that? I don't like this taking over.
I don't like it either.
Yeah.
Nope.
I turn that shit off.
I'm like, don't listen to me.
(34:10):
I don't want you listening.
Stop listening.
Especially Siri.
cause Siri's freaking useless.
Yeah.
You're like, uh, hey, send a text message, blah, blah, blah, blah B, and it spins and then it like dies.
You're like, it just, I'm driving.
I'm trying not to hit things.
All right.
So if we could all just go shopping this afternoon and buy one item that we just are pining after, what would that be? Salad.
(34:36):
I don't know what to think.
You have to think salad.
Calin, you're such a rabbit.
I'd buy a car.
Andrea, I'd buy a car.
Or you for me? No, lets get real.
Nobody knows what they would go buy if they decided they could go spend some money.
I already said salad that.
How much are we talking? Not a good answer.
That's what I would, what I would say.
(34:56):
We decided you're gonna treat yourself a retail therapy appropriate couple, because obviously what Andrea needs is retail therapy On this great day, she's gotta go.
She's gotta get a marshals.
You don't have a list like in your notes, in your phone of like, no.
Things you really want that you're buying.
They're wire, the, the incident are wired treadmill differently.
Treadmill, yeah.
She wants a treadmill for, to keep my son safe.
(35:18):
'cause he likes to go running on the streets at night and I hate it.
And it's want to, what was the item? But what? Do a treadmill.
Oh, okay.
But what do you want for you? World.
Yes.
No, she's, she's like us.
Yeah, she's, yes.
Andrea, like what you have to do is learn to be happy, as with what you have.
Calin wants for nothing.
I want a salad.
(35:41):
The other day I was like in a super salad mood and I, I had like three bags of salad plus like the box of spinach.
In one day.
Oh my God.
Crazy.
Uh, actually the part of, did anybody, uh, watch? Nobody wants this? No.
What is that now? Oh that.
(36:02):
Oh, that, uh, with the Jew, uh, Jewish, uh, okay.
I, I can't listen if you guys are not gonna be materialistic and watch TV shows, I cannot come on this podcast.
I watched it.
Okay.
Well, the best you, the best scene was when the best, the best scene was.
When did you see it? No.
Okay.
The, uh, rabbi is with his girlfriend and they're in a sex shop and they bump into some other old man from his church, uh, from his, uh, what's it called, synagogue.
(36:30):
Yeah.
And so he can get super embarrassed that he sees his rabbi, the sex shop, but what makes it worse is he is not with his wife.
He's with another woman.
Yeah.
Scandalous.
So the episode, no, and the ra, he's the junior rabbi, so he is nervous about getting fired and so.
Uh, the senior rabbi calls him in the office and he's like, I need you to explain something to me.
And he starts to hem and haw and he says, how did you get Morty Anderson to donate $25,000 to the synagogue? You know? Yeah.
(36:59):
And it was, uh, anyway, so it was very clever the way, the way these sitcoms are so clever in wrapping up there.
But you should, uh, kalin, I think you'll enjoy that one.
Ah, I think you would enjoy a trip to the sex shop also, so maybe we'll both do, we'll both try new things when I come to town.
Okay.
Alright.
You could, uh, I, I'll I'll think on it.
I'll think on it.
But you propose for the vacation, the secret spring break.
(37:22):
What am I proposing? What? No, when are we gonna propose? Oh yeah, we gotta schedule that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Face.
Yeah.
What's the final decision? Yeah, guys, keep your, keep your mind on the, yeah.
Focus, focus, focus.
What the job at hand are we, are you buying north shrimp or shorting it? People will bring us back to, uh, the straw.
I think Macy's.
I mean, if you want Dr.
If you want long and you want short, what would you do? Like a collar or something like that? A collar.
(37:46):
I mean, given that it's had like zero volatility, you could, uh, you could sell the vault.
Is it trading? I don't know what any of this means.
By the way, Denise, if you, Denise, if you dunno what they're talking about right now, like I don't know what this still, the color talk is.
I can smile and nod.
I barely know what it Yeah, same.
Same too.
I barely know.
I don't know why these are all zeros, but I don't understand.
Refresh it, the market's open.
(38:09):
It hasn't traded a single share today.
No, it has.
It's just not pulling up.
Oh, okay.
Either it is in fact even, or it's uh, yeah.
All right.
I'm gonna go out on a limb.
Yeah.
Let's do this.
Denise, that's up if you trust me.
I do.
We short it.
Okay.
Let's try it.
I would also point out that she wanted Pulte homes was her last choice, which has totally tanked the, uh, portfolio.
(38:33):
So just saying, uh, did Denise and we already went through.
Every short that we've ever done is turn into a design.
No, we're, we're good.
I wanna say one thing.
When I recommended Pulte.
I literally thought Kamala was gonna win, and I feel like, sounds like poultry we would've been in.
It's not.
That's as good a reason to invest in it as we need on our podcast.
(38:53):
Okay, so in my defense, okay, I thought we were gonna have a different administration under which I honestly believe it would be doing better now you can give me all kinds of shit if shorting This dog was not the right way to go.
But as my friend, do you trust me enough to short this up? Yes, absolutely.
(39:17):
Laying on the line here.
Do you wanna go? Should we go long Calin in the, in the gear rich portfolio? I think so.
Alright.
It's on.
We're going, we're going long.
And you guys are going short and we're gonna see bring it.
Oh, right.
What a perfect way to, to, uh, wrap this up.
Janice, did you have a good time on a podcast today? It was so much fun.
Thank you so much for.
(39:37):
Jen, thank you so much for coming.
Jane Denise didn't even care about coming on the podcast.
What she really wanted to do was wear the headphones that, I mean, if I had given her a boom mic, she would've been out of her mind.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I feel like you're pitch too, you know? Yeah, you should.
Yeah.
All right.
We'll send you the, uh, yeah, either way, we'll send you the raw file to edit.
(40:00):
If I could have that back by this time, tomorrow on it.

Cart, we need to go from about an hour to about 18 minutes.
Do you think you could, uh, no.
No? All right.
Hey, yeah, see you next time.
Bye bye, Janice.
Bye bye bye.
I was just looking like our best episode had 500 something downloads and then lately we've been, we've been lucky to break three triple digits, you know? So, yeah, I don't know.
(40:32):
I don't know either.
We need some, not only worried about it, I suppose, but I mean I, yeah, I don't really know what to do about, I mean, maybe we'll see what happens when we have the dude from Madagascar on.
I guess maybe that'll.
Yeah, maybe that cross platform.
I mean, that seems to be the big thing that podcasts people do to like expand audience from what I can see, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
(40:55):
Another thing they do is they host on topics people wanna listen to.
I mean, I guess, I don't know, like I talked to a couple friends about what they, their favorite, their favorite podcast, and a lot of 'em are just like, oh, I just like listening to these two people talk about nothing.
Like there's, I can't remember what.
What it is when, when it's like these two guys talking about the idea is talking about sports, but they like Yeah, most of the time the vast majority of the episode are not talking about sports, which I'm like, that's our recipe.
(41:23):
That's right.
That's us right there.
Like just substitute in music type music, money.
Um, this is the music podcast.
I couldn't name you one musician that's famous right now, you know, that's new to being famous in the past five years, but, uh, Adele, well, I don't know how long she's been famous, say longer than five years.
(41:43):
Somewhere in the five year range.
Yeah, yeah.
But, uh, yeah, Adele is really good though, I have to say.
So yeah, she is quite talented.
That's true.
I would do the gummy bear, but I don't have the scale so I can eat some.
And leave or, or we can leave well enough alone.
Yeah.
I say we skip it.
I don't know.
All right.
Fine.

I was waiting for that.
Be like, eh.

I feel like I look stupid.
How about like, there's loads that are worse, like as far as me looking dumb, like, oh, now it's the second, it's now our second most watched ever.
Man.
It's gonna usurp the number one spot for sure.
(45:21):
Um, well, well, well, nobody, uh, nobody, uh, we've got 86% like, and no one has written a about how this.
Hostess is a dummy or anything, so, yeah.
How about education system has failed me? Yeah.
