Welcome, you good people, on behalf of our sponsors. We are one of the few remaining radio shows that's lucky enough to have a sponsor. So if you enjoy yourself during the next half hour, you can do us all a big favor, if you would. And that is some time this week. Stop by your neighborhood RCA. There could be a 27-inch television set or a record player. We'd like to be working up here next year at the same time. I don't know whether you know it or not, but throughout the country, with the exception of Los Angeles, we have a new time this year. And on Friday evening, excuse me. And also, you know, that Phil is out on his own for the first time. So what do you say? We all get together and give a great big welcome to the man who discussed the South Bill Hatch. Let's do this! I'm calling a plaudic and glad to see me. And I just want to tell you, I love you, Ford, because I need you. I've been with Jack for 16 years. They ain't no money connected with that. Tonight is taking a dark room. Gives you one fast-forward to love and blooming you've had at fly. In this living I'll certainly appreciate it. I got off to a bad start when I married Alice. They told me she had money, but I'll be damned to fight. Something I see you guys, you service guys in the audience. And I just want you to know that you can come to my show anytime. Because, ladies and gentlemen, the servicemen are the finest audiences we have. And it's true. I went to the Navy because I was in the Navy during the last war myself. That's right, Ford. I fought the Battle of Catalina. We lost eight lobster traps over there. They blamed us, you know, the water came up and took them away. But they had a very unique way of selecting their enlisted men when I went into the Navy according to what they'd done in private life. See, they were particular in those days. So I went in with a couple of buddies of mine and went up with a street cleaner and they put him on a minesweeper. And this other buddy of mine was a construction guy. He tore down stuff and carried it off. See, so they put him on a destroyer. How I ever wound up on a ferry boat, I was like, I'm gonna be a good group tonight. Ah, dear, the story about the guy who walked the barber shop said, how many ahead of him did the barber says three? The guy went on, he doesn't come back. Next day comes in again, says the barber. How many ahead of him did the barber says three? The guy walks out, he doesn't come back. Now, the barber's going, Matt, you know, he's up all day only speaking the clink of them scissors. No, you know, the guy is... Oh, that's the Chinese drips. You know, the guy, he don't know. He works up every time the guy goes out, so he walks out the boot like the barber does. He says the boot like, he says, look, every day a guy comes in, what's going on, I'm in his head, I tell him, he goes out, he don't come back. He says, if he does it tomorrow, follow him. I want him to know. Next day the guy came in, says the barber. How many ahead of him did the barber says three? The guy walks out the boot like follows him, comes back in about 20 minutes. The barber says, where'd he go? Where'd he go? The boot like says to your house. He runs to fill out the 12-story building.  The fellow walks up, says, what happened? He says, damn, fine, oh, I just got here. The guy pulls up and blinds, they're walking down the railroad track, the one drunk looks at the other and says, man, it's the longest staircase I ever came down to. The other one says, I don't mind that, it's these low banisters. Ladies and gentlemen, we've obtained, I'd like to tell you, and also for our organization, we have, ladies and gentlemen, one of the finest working organizations, I think it is possible to obtain, and I'm very thankful, because in our business, one or two people can't do it, you must have a very fine, functioning organization. We're very well, for instance, everyone you see sitting on that stand does an outstanding job on his or her to take a for instance. LAUGHTER We have a genius on our hands, and I am, I'm speaking the truth now. He's already had two of his own compositions played in the Hollywood Bowl. He has been a nominated sixth time for the Academy Award. He was a nominated last year for the beautiful conducting and arranging of all the wonderful music, if you heard, in the Hans Fritz Nanen story, and just missed the Academy Award by a few votes this year. He's just finished another big picture, and we're all keeping our fingers crossed about the French line, and he is now doing the new in the process of making the new Martin and Lewis picture, so this kid's going like a bear. This is Walter Sharpen. Most of these fellows have been around me for many, many years, ladies and gentlemen, because I started as a militant music, and I was a drummer. They let us in a union. That's about all you can say for it, but I did have an opportunity of meeting a lot of wonderful guys over these many years. Every fellow sitting up there has done something outstanding in our music business, and as much as most of them have been with, well, I'd say all of the big Dixieland bands and all of the important bands in the United States. They now have family, and they're out here, and other businesses and they come with me today. But I have a couple of them. I could introduce you and tell you the history of every boy that would be interesting, but we don't have the time tonight. We'll be on on KMDA and does a wonderful job and is one of our outstanding orchestra leaders in the whole United States. Alpino Ray, ladies and gentlemen. So I'm not going to tell you how many, but he too has been very, very successful. He is known as a tradition in his particular line of business and his particular type of music. His records, some records that he made fifteen, maybe eighteen years ago are collected by him. He's still making records, and it's one of the greatest exponents of Dixieland jazz. Red Nichols. Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to have you meet somebody without her. This program wouldn't be possible. I'm not going into it. I'm just going to tell you I've been married to her for twelve years and we have two beautiful children and she's not only the most beautiful girl in the world, but didn't get to have a lot of talent. Alice Spade, a girl to play the part of Alice and Phyllis on our program. One of the most competent little actresses we have in this business. One of us is at the present time over making a picture with Vane Crosby on White Christmas and we're all pulling for her. Say hello to Jeanine Rousse and Anne Westfield, ladies and gentlemen. She's done for me. A barking dog never bites. I want you to be awfully nice to them because they're very important guys and I am very thankful that they came over to work on my show. They too are well known on the pictures all of them and they do a lot of important things in our field of acting. The first one has been with us before. It's awfully nice to have him back again and I want you to be awfully nice to him. Say hello to Dick Allen, ladies and gentlemen. We hope to have him back again a lot because we're always assured of a fine performance Mr. Dick Rye. Here's a fellow that's been a friend of mine for many, many years. We used to shoot together about a vacant field and we used to have a lot of fun and it's awfully nice to be able to renew Ole Quaintance. This is an outstanding act, ladies and gentlemen, in Hollywood for quite a number of years. Mr. Douglas Dunn, brother. He steals our show every week and we're happy because he's got a lot of talent. He plays the part of Judy Subrucio, the grocery boy, Walter Ketley. Thanks, ladies and gentlemen, for coming to see us. Mainly thanks for being so nice and I certainly hope you enjoy the program and what I'm trying to say is for God's sake, relax. But soft. What light through yonder window breaks it is the east and Juliet is the sun. Oh, Harris, you ought to be pitching for the Yankees. You've got so much on the ball. Marcia Victor, world leader and radio person, recorded music and first in television presents the Phil Harris Alice Faye Show. Your enjoyment here is the Phil Harris Alice Faye Show transcribed written by Ed James and Lou Durman with Elliot Lewis, Walter Ketley, John Hubbard, Janine Roos, Anne Whitfield, Walter Sharpney's music and yours truly, Bill Foreman.  And now the stars of the RCA Victor program Alice Faye and Phil Harris. When the average husband refers to his better half, he means his wife but not Phil Harris. To Phil his better half is his left profile. What? Or is it his right? Well, anyway, here he comes with both profile shining and a full set of teeth to match. Two loves have I, it's a perfect parlay. My wife's a doll but I love our C.A. Oh, hiya, honey. What are you looking at? Oh, Phil, the prints of our new pictures just arrived. Oh, they did, huh? Let's mail them out and let's not keep all that beauty to ourselves. Hey, they look pretty good, don't they? Nice saying. Gosh, you look wonderful, Alice. Just wonderful. Oh, thank you, kind sir, she said. I don't know about me. Somehow pictures don't do me justice. You're my wife, Phil. No, honey, I mean it. Now look at this one. Look. He's got that boyish twinkle in my eyes but, well, he didn't capture my lovable devil may care smile.  No, I mean the magnetic charm that makes me irresistible to all females between 16 and 60. Is that their age or their IQ?  You married me, didn't you? Don't that show that I attract the brainy type? Do that again, Alice, will you? That reminds me of a dame I used to go with nicely. Oh, you're kidding. No, no, no, I'm not. You should have seen her red hair, blue eyes and skin like a 10-year-old. How old was she? 10 years old. Of course, I was only 11 at the time and in some days I was known as Marshmilla Harris. Toast to the campfire girls. When was the days? Hey, Phil, speaking of girls which you somehow always manage, what do you suppose happened to ours? They should have been home from school an hour ago.  It happens, it happens.  Oh, I don't know. Those girls tell you anything and you believe it. Honey, honey, wait a minute. Phyllis got a D in English, didn't she? And you know no daughter of mine ain't getting no D in English if they ain't giving her no stupid... A coquette. A what? A coquette. It's a small coke.  So go ahead, test me again, ask me anything. All right. What's a silhouette? It's a small salute. A baguette. Well, that is good. Oh, a baguette's a small girl.  Oh, they handed out something. Hi, everybody. We're home. Well, it's about time you kids got here. Where have you been? Girls, you know I worry. Every time you don't come straight home from school. But we did, Mom. You just can't get across Ventura Boulevard. That's all. Well, why don't you cross with the light? There isn't any light at White Oak. And every time you try to cross, the cars begin chasing you. But we fool them. We keep running back and forth. Had a girl. Get into it. Don't give them a chance to aim. Just get into it. Don't they have a crosswalk at White Oak? Well, it's all rubbed out. How about the safety zone? Honey, them things are pickup stations for the Blue Cross. The only way to get on the other side of Ventura Boulevard is to be born there. Well, what happened to that petition that Willie got up for a light at White Oak? Didn't everybody sign it? Well, the city said the funds were all gone. Oh, fine, fine, funds. A big city like this and they can't shell out for one puny light. I know somebody can fix it. Sniffy. Sniffy. She thinks he's so wonderful. He's a district attorney, isn't he? Sun district attorney. Oh, wait a minute. Sniffy is the district attorney? How could a 15-year-old kid be a... Well, look, honey, it's boy's week and Sniffy's father appointed him honorary district attorney. Oh, wow. He's anything like his father. He'll be a big help.  Some boyfriend. And he can get a light faster than any old district attorney, I bet you. He cannot. How are you, kid? What good is an old district attorney? He isn't old and he's better than any old fire chief. He isn't.  He is a kid. It is. Will you stop that? Stop it. Pardon me. Is this the contented hour? Late. Come on in. Hi, Uncle Elliot. Hi. What's up? I can hear you clear down the driveway.  Assistant fire chief. All right, girls. That's even worse. It isn't either. Okay, that does it. Upstairs, the both of you. But, Dad...  But, Mom... You and your district attorney think he's so wonderful.  He isn't either. He isn't either. He isn't. The bottle glued on that head. Trying out for what's my line? Have something we'd like to discuss. Go ahead. I won't say anything. I'll just listen. Wait a minute, honey. Wait a minute. Elliot. Hmm? You know, sometimes a married couple likes to be alone. They do? How would you like it if you were married to Alice and I was around all the time? Let's try it that way for a while. There's no traffic light at White Oak and Alice and Phyllis have a terrible time getting across the street. Why do they have to cross the street? To get on the other side. Oh, Curly. Joe Miller would be proud of you. It ain't a joke. He thought it was. Elliot, the school's on the other side. Nah, that's ridiculous. Who ever heard of a chicken going to school? What chicken? The one that crossed the street to get to the other side. Alice, can I see you out in the garage? What's going on out in the garage? Elliot, now look, honey, this is a very serious problem. Okay, let's all go out in the garage. It's got nothing to do with the garage. Alice and Phyllis can't cross the street because there isn't any traffic light. Why don't they use the crosswalk? Because there isn't any crosswalk. Okay, let's paint one. Now look, Elliot. Listen to me. Wait a minute. You don't have to say a word to me, honey. I promised you and I'm not getting mixed up in any more of his crazy ideas. But it's a good idea. I like it. Rocket ship to the moon. Uranium and... You what? I think Elliot's idea is very good. Oh, honey, you better get some sleep. Lie down right over here. Now, take it easy. Just rest a minute. Stop it, Phil. There's nothing wrong with me and there's nothing wrong with Elliot's idea. But every other time Elliot's had an idea... You've gotten into trouble, I know. But how can you possibly get into trouble painting a few white lines? She's right, Curly. I don't know. It doesn't take any brains. A three-year-old child can paint a white line. You see, Curly, it's right down our alley. All we need is some paint and a couple of brushes. I got a feeling that something's going to happen. But let's go paint some lines. Boy, look at them cars. There must be a million of them. Look at them later, will you? We've got to get these lines painted. Okay, Mr. Rembrandt, where are we starting? Right at the corner. Now you start on this side and I'll go across the street and we'll both work toward the middle. Got it? Got it. And Curly, look out! That guy almost killed me. Did you see him snarl when he missed? Yeah. Look, Elliot. I'll start over here and you go across the street. Okay. And Curly, look out! Why don't we just paint lines on this side?  That's stupid?  We're supposed to paint a crosswalk all the way across. If we only put lines on one side of the street, it's no good. We'll have all this paint left over. We could paint a couple of lines down the middle. A straight one for men drivers and a zigzag one for lady drivers. We're going to paint a crosswalk. Okay, let's start painting. All right now, move over there about 10 feet and then we'll paint across together. Right, you just give me the notice. All right. On your mark, get set, go! Let's talk this thing over. Okay. If we can't get out into the road, we can't paint the lines, can we? That seems like a reasonable supposition. And every time we step off the curb, we get chased by a car. Right? Dead. Right. That's what I'm afraid of. Now, there's only one sensible way to do this. One of us has to paint and one of us has to act as a decoy. A decoy? Yeah. What's a decoy? A decoy. Well, it's like, look, one of us stands in the middle of the road and the cars all aim at him. So they don't notice the other guy. Who is quietly painting. You mean the guy that's out there ducking cars? That's a decoy. Yeah. One of us. You wouldn't have any ideas about which one of us. Good luck, Elliot. Just remember I'm doing this for your wife and kids.  Get much paint and done, Curly? Well, if it ain't Crazy Legs Hearst. Back in that old fake rude. Yeah, man, you were spinning in and out. How's the painting coming along? Are you kidding? I didn't even get the brush wet. Fine.  Are you kidding?  In two seconds, how could I get ten years older?  Oh, wait a minute. Wait, wait, wait, Curly. Just hold it. Now what's the matter? I got a better idea. People get killed even in crosswalks, don't they? Sure. But it ain't considered cricket. Cricket, schmicket, they get knocked for a loop. You know what we do? What? We dig a tunnel. Elliot. That's a very practical idea. I don't know about that. Look, Curly, do they have crosswalks over the Hudson River? No. Do they have tunnels under the Hudson River? Well, sure. Then why ain't it a good idea?   I just don't think that Alice is going to like it. That's all. She liked the crosswalk, didn't she? And this is better, believe me. Well, I don't know. Elliot, where are you going? You stay right there, Curly. I got to borrow a pick and shovel. This is tough work. I'm getting a blister. Oh, what are you worried about? Another couple of hundred feet and you'll be all through. Go ahead, Roy. Keep digging. Let me hear it up here. Dig it out. All right. Hey, Curly. Yeah. There's another flock of wires down here. What kind? Sam's last time. Bell telephone. Pull them out. Sure. What do we want with telephone wires? Now, if there was electric wires leading to an RCA Victor television set with a 27-inch screen, that'd be different. You mean RCA Victor television sets work good in tunnels? Good. They even work in a cave. Peter the hermit's got one in every room. Nothing. But these are telephone wires, so I chop them out, right? Right. Okay. Chop, chop. Beautiful night, isn't it? You and your friend lost something? Oh, no, no. We're just digging a hole. Hey, Curly. Here's the wire. Okay. Toss it out. Yep. That's the point. It's just some old telephone wires we chopped out, officer. I see. Hey, Curly. I got a rest for a minute. Oh, hello, officer. Would you mind telling me exactly what you're doing? Well, when we started, we were painting the crosswalk. It peed under the ground? No, no, no. No, you see, my friend here explained to me that they didn't have any crosswalks over the Hudson River, but they had lots of tunnels. So we decided to dig one. Oh, this is going to be a tunnel under the Hudson River, is that it? No, officer. They have tunnels like this all over the world, like in Germany under the Autobahn. And you're digging a spare. He's got a great sense of humor, isn't he? No, no, officer, look. Let's get sharp as a biscuit. No, look, you don't understand, officer.  Like Joe Miller's chicken. But there's no light here. So we're digging a tunnel instead. You're digging a tunnel under Ventura Boulevard? There's no better way to get across. We could build a bridge, but a tunnel's so much more practical. Especially when it rains.  I've got to make me call into the station. Yeah, all right, so long, officer. It was nice talking to you. Yeah, you come back any time. Hey, he was a nice guy, wasn't he? Yeah, he was. Hello, Kim, this is Mike. Send the wagon. I've got a couple of duty. I'll only stay a few minutes. All right, Mrs. Harris, you'll find your husband and sell, too. That's the bridal suite. Thank you. The bridal suite? Yes, ma'am. That has twin straight jackets. Well, you were supposed to paint two little lines. Honey, honey, it's all a mistake. We'll be out of here in no time. We're like tell my congressman. Just wait. What am I going to tell the girls? Their father's a jailbird. Now, don't worry, Alice. I'll be out the first thing in the morning. If they hadn't taken away the pick and shovel, we could have been out of here tonight. Honey, I was brought your pajamas and your toothbrush. Oh, thanks, honey, but it's not that bad. This ain't a bad jail. It's nice and warm. Well, I'd better go, Phil. Can't you stay a few more minutes? But the girl... No sense going out in the cold when you could stay here in a nice, comfortable jail. Phil, I ought to go home. Honey, please. I simply can't stay. Baby, it's cold outside. I've got to go away. Baby, it's cold outside. This evening has been... Oh, very warm. I'll hold your hands. They're just like mine. My mother will start to worry. Beautiful. Watch your hurry. And father will be pacing the floor. Let's shoot the fireplace. So, really, I'd better scurry. Beautiful. Please don't love her. Well, maybe just a half a drink more. Put some records on while I walk. The neighbors may think... Baby, it's bad out there. Say, what's in this room? No caps to be had out there. I wish I knew how. Your eyes are like starlight now. I'll take your hat, your hair. I ought to say, no, no, no. Mind if I move in closer. At least I'm going to say that I tried. What's the sense of hurtin' my pride? I really can't stay. Oh, baby, don't hold out. Oh, but it's cold outside. I simply must go. Baby, it's cold outside. The answer is no. Baby, it's cold outside. The welcome has been... How lucky that you dropped in. Oh, nice and warm. Look out the window at that strong. My sister will be suspicious. Guys, your lips look delicious. My brother will be there at the door. Waves are on the top of the show. My man and his mind is vicious. Guys, your lips are delicious. Well, maybe just a cigarette more. Never such a blizzard before. I've got to get home. But baby, you freeze out there. Say, lend me a call. It's up to your knees out there. Boy, you've really been crying. I thrill when you touch me. How can you do this thing to me? There's bound to be talk tomorrow. Think of my lifelong son. At least there will be plenty implied. If you get no more near and die. I really can't stay. Get over, baby. Oh, but it's cold. What's wrong with digging a tunnel? Quiet over there. Yes, Your Majesty. Your Honor. Yes, sir. This will call to the law standard to district division 32. The Honorable Robert Anderson presiding is now in session. Be seated. Ladies and gentlemen, as you know, this is boys' week, and so assisting me on the bench will be a representative elected to this office by the student body of the Encino High School. My colleague and associate, the Honorable Julius Abruzio. See, Judge Abruzio. It's a question. Yes, Your Honor. What? Charge, destroying. Judge Abruzio, may I confer with you for one moment? Okay, Your Honor. Everybody hold it a second. Judge Abruzio, before we sentence the defendants, don't you think it might be a good idea to hold the trial? But, Judge, I know these guys. Jack, on the grounds that he's a revelant in material and inconstitutional. According to the 21st Amendment. The 21st Amendment. That repeals prohibition. Yeah, wasn't that a beauty? Julius, you wouldn't do a thing like that, would you? Abruzio, shall we proceed? The causes of this country are designed to protect the innocent as well as to punish the wrongdoer. In our democracy, every man is deemed innocent until proven guilty.  We're in great shape. Swear in the witness. You swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth? I do. Proceed, Your Honor. Dig in a hole. I object it was a tunnel. Now you did it, it opened by itself. Proceed, Judge Abruzio. Spoil sports. Abruzio, are you implying that these men have been known to indulge? Indulge. Yes, Your Highness. According to the complaint you and this other gentleman. For goodness sake. Mr. Harris. Yes, sir. I recognize the spirit which prompted your action. Recognize it, you can follow it. But we cannot have the people taking matters into their own hands. After all, what would we have if everyone decided to dig his own tunnel? Live pedestrian. He broke it. I'm afraid the court can do nothing but find you both guilty as charged. But, Your Honor. Judge Abruzio will pass sentence. Yes, Your Honor. Mr. Lewis.  I sentence you to 160. Julius, Your Honor. All we did was dig a hole. Judge Abruzio, the penalty in a case of this type is generally a fine. You mean I can't have... I'm afraid not. According to my calculations, we need another $210. $210? For what? Now, wait a minute. That's 500 bucks for digging one little hole. Not exactly. It's 500 bucks to install one traffic light adventurer and white oaks. Taste this mess. This is Phil again. Tonight, ladies and gentlemen, and boys and girls, we've tried to have a little fun with the traffic problem, and we hope we gave you a few laps. But we'd also like to remind you that the holiday season is coming up, and that means a lot of added traffic on foot and in cars. So let's all try to take it a little easy, especially around the schools. When we're driving, let's watch those traffic lights and crosswalks because they'll be there. So look for them. Let's all be careful and have a real happy holiday this year. Good night, everyone. Say good night to the people, honey. Good night, everybody. That's my girl. Included in this program, Francecribe were Douglas Dumbrill, Dick Elliott and Dick Ryan. The part of Julius was played by Walter Thetlin. This has been an NBC Radio Network presentation.


Good morning, everybody. JR Fisher here. Welcome to Saturday morning, June 5th, 2021. I want to welcome everybody. If you're new here, hey, I do these live training sessions to help you guys out, they help you start running, grow online businesses. That's what it's all about. That's the only thing I talk about. We don't sell anything here. You don't sell anything. I don't sell anything. Only thing we sell is ideas that work. So that's what I'm going to be talking about today, and I'm going to be focusing today on my man, my man, Gary B., which should be really entertaining today. I think he's a really interesting guy. I've heard him speak live before, but if you are new, do me a favor and subscribe. Hit that subscribe button down there, and don't forget, ring the bell, turn on all bell notifications. So that, what? You're notified so that you know when I go live or when I upload a video. Say hello to a couple of people or to pick. Hello again from Ensenada. Ensenada. I'm going to say that right. Ensenada. And that is a very cool place. That is a place where there's a race in Ensenada. And it's like a four-wheel drive race, and years ago I used to have an Air Charger service, and we did Air Ambulance. And yeah, we would just fly an airplane down there and wait for somebody to get hurt and fly back to the US. It was many years ago. I'm sure this will be both entertaining and enlightening. I hope it will be. I've got some research for you. I've got some background on Gary V. If you don't know who Gary V is, he is a serial entrepreneur, a really interesting guy, and I don't want to get into it yet, because then I'll start. But he's an interesting guy. If you do know who he is, put something in the chat section there. Put it in there that you know who he is. If you are on this live today, I really appreciate comments. I really appreciate anything you've got to say. That's what that chat section is for.  Just burn it up today.  The more you get involved in this stuff, the better your chances of success online, this is an opportunity for you to actually put forth your thoughts and ideas and get involved. That's the number one step that I don't see people do, and why they don't make money online is they don't get involved. So get involved, put something there. There's my man James. He just popped up loud and clear from Savannah. And James is going to be 78 here today. We've got some nice temperatures. I don't know what yours is, but I'm sure you will pop it in there. And also, guys, don't forget to give me a thumbs up. That's real important too. Put it in that chat. Do you know who Gary V is? Do you know what he's known for? I don't want to talk about a guy nobody's ever heard about, but I think most of you have heard of Gary V. He's a pretty entertaining guy. When he came out and spoke at a convention I went to, they introduced him as the F guy. I was like, F guy? What does that mean? And after a couple minutes, you figure out what the F guy means, because he drops the F word about every other sentence. And that's just his style. That's what he does. But he's a really funny guy. He's entertaining. And I want to get into his background. So let me get another sip here. And I got to tell you, over the years listening to a lot of his stuff, I've often been, you know, motivated by him. Him and David Goggins. David Goggins is an exercise guy. I call him an exercise guy. He's one of the toughest guys in the world. But you know, it's people like that that we got to listen to. And you know, I've heard people say, well, I went to one of those motivational things one time and it didn't work. Motivation is not a one time thing. That's like saying I ate once and I'm still hungry. You know, you've got to keep feeding your mind. You've got to keep feeding your mind positive things. And listening to people like Gary V or David Goggins or whoever you like. You know, really interesting. This is a live blog. Just great. Cool. Thank you. I appreciate that. Yeah, we are kind of a live blog, aren't we? So Gary V is actually an entrepreneur. He really kind of mastered the art of getting attention from people. I mean, that's really what he did. He is currently the CEO of VaynerMedia. And I understand why he would call it Vayner because his name is Vayner Chuck. And it's not the easiest name in the world to say. But anyhow, VaynerMedia is a full service advertising agency that helps Fortune 1000 companies leverage their consumer attention. So that's what he's good at. He's good at getting attention. Okay. So on top of this, he's also chairman of VaynerX, which is a modern day like communications holding company. It's a five times New York Times. He's also a five times New York Times bestselling author. And he's a highly sought after speaker. I mean, he makes tons of money doing just speeches now. I have zero tolerance for profanity. Well, you know, it happens. Some people speak it. It doesn't really offend me, I guess, because of the neighborhood I grew up in. So it doesn't really offend me. But I get it. And if you don't like it, you don't like it. You know, that's this is his style. Have his can't hurt me and healing back pain by Dr. Sarno on your recommendations. Many things. Yeah, both of those books, man. Awesome, awesome books, awesome books. Gary knows a lot about success, though.  He knows a lot about success. He's done a lot. He's achieved his a lot. Paul says, I, Paul, you've got to say more than I got to. I think maybe you hit your keyboard too quick. But Gary V really has become become like known as this successful businessman. And his inspiring success story can really teach you and guide you in a whole bunch of different ways. So without having been said, I'm going to kind of dive in and get into his life story and who he actually is. Gary V in 1978, when Gary V was just three years old, OK, so he was born in 75. Him and his family actually immigrated to the U.S. from Belarus, Belarus, which is all in the news now for taking down that airplane. But it's a country which at the time was part of the former Soviet Union. His family first lived in Queens, New York with relatives. They didn't even have a place to stay, but they would eventually move to Edison, New Jersey. Now, his father, he didn't have any experience. He came to this country from a foreign country. Let's see, Richard Brown, he missed the H. Oh, he was trying to say hi. Well, well, I like his books. I liked his first one best. It seems he just cranked out the next two. Well, he had a a million dollar five book deal. So that may have something to do with it or a 10 book deal. I can't remember which it was. But anyhow, his father took a job as a stock boy in a liquor store. That was the only job he could get. Let me get a little sip here to keep me going.  He was smart and every penny he earned for a whole lot of years, he would say. Eventually, Gary's father worked his way up to full ownership of that liquor store. And he ended up owning that particular liquor store. Gary learned a whole lot from his father about hard work and work ethic and hustle. He would get introduced to entrepreneurship at the age of six, six years old. He started getting into this stuff. His first taste of entrepreneurship actually came from his experience with selling flowers. So that's what he started doing. Legend has it that Gary would actually take flowers from his neighbor's yard and then ring the doorbell of that neighbor with charisma and wit. He would successfully sell the neighbors his own flowers back to them, which is kind of funny. Gary's taste for business would grow. And by the age of seven, he was already running a successful lemonade franchise throughout New Jersey, where he managed to set up eight different lemonade stands using his friends to run each location. That's pretty impressive. Now, I had a lemonade stand when I was a kid, but I never had my friends running them for me. I don't know what he said to those guys to get him to do that. Do you believe I got some questions here? Let me jump jump in here. Do you believe that products have a distinct life cycle on the internet and then die, in other words, fads? That is true with some products and it's not true with other products. An example would be maybe a fidget spinner. I think that had its time, a pet rock. It certainly had its time, a hula hoop had its time. But if you have products like survival food, no, I don't think that's a fad. That's what we sell. If you have something like a course on how to get in shape, no, I don't think that's a fad. That will always be around. So it just really depends. James says, 87 in cloudy in Savannah. Wrote to pick, I suppose it depends, but things need updates. Thank you, Ty, and yet I have to jump it in there, too. You have to admire his success, but not crazy about the nonstop lifestyle. I agree with that, Paul.  He would be hard to outwork him. Yeah, but, you know, I don't work like Gary Vee. I can tell you that and I don't work out like David Goggins either. David Goggins is insane about working out. He wants to make everything difficult. So, you know, let's back to Gary Vee now. He's got these limited stands. By the time he was 13, he really got his first taste of real business. His breakthrough would come from his ability to generate thousands of dollars every weekend through selling baseball cards. Now, I never even collected one, but this man started a business at 13 making a lot of money. I mean, thousands of dollars a weekend. That's a lot for teenagers. You know, some people work all month long and they don't make that right now. Gary Vee actually learned a lot about the supply of concept of supply and demand. These were the formative years for him. He would eventually get pulled into his father's business. Now, he was initially put into working bagging ice for $2 an hour. That was his job. He would go to work for his father for a handful of years in various roles from the family business. However, Gary learned about the power of the Internet. Now, when he learned about the power of the Internet, he went all in to improve his father's business. Shortly after graduating from college, Gary actually went back to the liquor store and started leveraging social media. He started creating content in his own way. That way would take his father's business from three million dollars. Get this up to 60 million dollars in just a few short years. Now, that's pretty impressive. Let's see here. How did he do it? Well, Gary's father's business he put on the Internet. He renamed it the liquor store to the Wine Library. So it's got all fancy now. Then in 2006, he went on to create an extremely entertaining educational show called Wine Library TV. This showcased his analysis of various wines and liquors. And he leveraged his knowledge of these wines, his energetic personality and his consistent daily hustle to create over 1,000 episodes. Now, I know that's hard because I think I have about 1,000 videos on this YouTube channel right there. So I know it's hard and sometimes you don't get results and sometimes you do get results and you got to keep going. And that's the one thing I want you to take from today, guys. Even if you don't see results, you got to keep going because you don't know when they're going to come or how they're going to come. On top of this, Gary paid attention to what his audience was interested in. That's another key thing. What is your audience interested in? And he wanted to figure out what they wanted more of. He he effectively executed them in engagement. He got them to engage with him and he got questions from them so he could answer those questions. Same thing I do with this channel. Not a whole lot of difference there, except he was vastly more successful. The result was an explosion of revenue growth in his father's liquor store. Now, in his own words, this is what Gary had to say. And I wrote it down here about his initial success with Wine Library. Here's what he said. He said, I've always created the success of that venture to my hustle. Oh, excuse me. I've always credited the success of that venture to my hustle and single-minded dedication to engaging with my fans and customers by answering every email or blog comment I received and going overboard to show my appreciation for their business. That is a key thing, guys. And that's something you got to do if you have a YouTube channel or whatever. I know I have to go in there every few days and I'll have to actually want to and answer your questions and give you help and give you input. I think that's super important. Now, after growing his father's business, Gary actually would order to start the next chapter of his life. He actually what he learned from his success at the Wine Library TV, he would leverage into a social media expertise to create his own full service advertising agency. He would name his new endeavor Vayner Media, which I talked about in the beginning. He started small with Vayner Media. In fact, in his early days, he had to use other companies conference room because he didn't have the capital to hit office space that would allow him to have his own. But he persisted and did what he did best. He hustled to get attention. That's what he did. And the attention actually translated into business. And after giving a successful public speech in New York, Gary's media agency would take off. Now, he initially did all of his speeches for free, guys. He wasn't getting paid. Now, he gets these big fees now, but in the beginning, he wasn't getting paid. Let me get another sip here. Diane says consistency is key. Very, very true. Rowe Tupac. I don't know if I'm saying that right. I'm in the health niche. I need new products to add to my offerings. Should I branch out or stay in my original niche of health related products? Well, you know, that's up to you. That's entirely up to you. If you really like your niche and you've built a following or you've got an email list or you just enjoy it, I would stay where you're at. If you don't enjoy it and you don't have a list, if you're looking for something new, you can certainly do that. That's really up to you and there's so many good niches out there. I mean, there really are. I did one video. I think it was yesterday for health, wealth and finance. Those are the three big ones, health, wealth and finance. OK, and communications and relationships and all that. There's so many things out there you could do. So anyhow, after that, and this is what you may have been talking about, Paul, after that, Gary had his first million dollar 10 book. It was a 10 book deal with Harper Collins. Since then, he has published multiple books with five of them, landing on the New York Times bestseller list, like I said in the beginning. So he went out and tried to help others build their businesses. And in doing so and being successful at that, more and more people wanted to listen to him, wanted to hear what he had to say because he was having these successes. Let's see, agree, re-answering questions, a very good re-email deliverability. Yeah, that's true. I thought he read. This is Paul right here. That was Richard Brown. Paul says, I thought I read he employs over 200 people. He definitely paid his dues and delayed gratifications. I don't know what he does as far as number of employees. And that doesn't have to be you. I want you to take from all these stories that I share with you, the things that fit for you and then discard the rest. Like when I hear he's got 200 employees, I would discard that because I don't want 200 employees. I want as few employees as possible. I have employees, but I have a smaller crew of employees and I farm out some stuff too. But I don't want a lot of employees. I've had a lot of employees. Easter and car dealerships where I would have hundreds or even thousands, depending on how many dealerships I was managing. I don't want that. I don't want that anymore. Let's see here, Richard Brown, Gary V knew that to receive he must first give an excellent his initial input, etc. being free. Yes, you do have to give, guys, you have to give freely. And what I mean by that is you have to do stuff for free in the beginning. If you want to make it online, you just have to. So Gary V continues to grow. He's still doing well. Actually, I just pulled up my notes here. So you'll be interested in this on the number of employees. I forgot I had this in here. He now employs over 800 people and his media company. So he has 800 people. He currently has over 12 million social media followers. And he's growing and continually increasing his influence and fortifying his brand with popular YouTube show. The Gary V video experience, I would recommend you jump over there and take a look at it. And somebody said to me that, hey, why would you recommend somebody else's channel, JR? You're going to leave your channel and go to another one. I'm like, I don't care. I want them to get good information. My job is not to keep everybody on my channel. My job is to provide good information so that everybody watching my channel feels like they get value. And if that means sending somebody over to Gary V's channel to listen to what he's got to say, so be it, OK? There is enough business to go around, so I don't even worry about that. Let's see here. Where should I look for finding new products to offer on my Facebook page? I would say go to ClickBank. I really would. I would go to ClickBank. I would search products and then in the health and wellness or whatever you're into there. And then what I would do is I would sort them by gravity. If you sort by gravity on ClickBank, you'll find some of the top-selling products, which is essentially what you want, the top-selling products. If you have the top-selling products, that's going to help you. You can also look at those products. You can buy those products. You could market those products to your audience to see how they sell. You could develop your own products that are similar to those. It's a lot you can do. I would go into ClickBank, and I would definitely do that. Let's see here. There are tons of people to learn from. Yes, there are, Ty-Ann. There doesn't have to be one, does it? I've read books from all kinds of different people and watched videos from all kinds of different people. My subscription list on YouTube is, I think, 113 channels now. And they're varied. They're motivational. They're workout. They're cooking. They're travel. They're all kinds of different things. So yeah, you don't have to learn from just one person. In fact, I would suggest you don't learn from one person. I get some other perspectives out there. But do something with what you do learn. So what's the secret to Gary V's enduring success? I would think that he doesn't have anything outside of, he does have kind of like a magical charisma. And he's got an incredible work ethic, just incredible. And that's played a significant role in his ability to captivate his audience. However, what has led to much of his success, and will probably continue to lead to his success, is his ability to spot trends. He is very good at that. He can zero in on things that are going to be popular. He knows what people want. And that is a talent. Now, I don't know if that talent is just something he's got, or he's developed it because he stays in the mix every day. I think it's a combination of the two. I will notice things going on. And I'll find ideas to do stuff. But it's because I'm always watching videos. I'm always looking at other people's stuff. I'm always seeing what they're doing. Or they get an attention. Let's see, Paul says, he currently has multiple offices around the world. I think his information is more motivation where this channel has more tactics and strategies that we can use. Definitely. Yeah, I'm not Mr. Motivation. Matter of fact, I probably demotivate some people by saying, you've got to work hard. OK, you've got to put in a lot of hours and get nothing back in the beginning. That's not the message a lot of people want to hear. But I'm telling you, it's the key. That is the key. If you take anything from me, the key is you've got to do stuff and expect nothing back. Nothing. And keep giving and keep giving. And then you're going to get something back. I woke up today and I saw a lot of money in my account from ClickBank from people buying my inner circle. From people buying the e-business toolbox. And I was like, yeah. But I did that a long time ago. I put together stuff a long time ago. And now it's paying me off. So at the time I was doing it, making no money, now I'm making money on it, which is pretty cool stuff. I think sometimes spotting trends does matter. As a matter of fact, I want to show you guys, if I can, I'm going to be starting another channel. And it's going to be a cooking channel. And I want to show you the kitchen that it's going to be coming from, if you don't mind. Let's see here. I want to airdrop this. And I'm going to send it to my MacBook Pro. My house is about done in Texas now. We're going to be moving probably a little over 30 days. Paul says, this community is a nice blend of information delivered by you and great interaction. Yes, guys keep interacting. I love that. I love that you guys are chatting in there, talking to each other. Definitely like Gary for seeing trends. Okay, let me see. I think I sent this picture to my computer. And this will be the kitchen that you guys will see very shortly in my new cooking videos. And let me get this thing opened up righty.  It is trying, it's just moving slow. There it is, there it is. Okay, so let me get to my screen share here. And I'm going to put this up one. You can see a funny kind of screen at first here. And then I'm going to go right here. And I'm going to kind of show you what we've built not to get off track. Anytime somebody says that that means they're going to get off track, okay? There it is, okay. So this is the kitchen we put in. This is where I'll be filming a lot of the new stuff. And guys, give me your opinions. This is what I put together for our new kitchen. Let me get a sip here real quick in the house. And if you guys are into cooking, you're into recipes, you like that kind of stuff, this is where I'll be working out of. And we're probably going to be putting some lighting on that big island there in the middle. I love this kitchen because it's got so much cabinetry space. Over here to the left is the butler's pantry right here. So there's a butler's area right here. So yeah, that's what I'll be working out of. And give me your input there. Only thing we have to do is add our fridge right here. We've already had our oven put in and the microwave right here. Got a five burner cooktop right there. Up here in the top, we're going to have pendant lights. There's one here, here and here. So these will hang down right here in the center. Let's see here, definitely cool kitchen. Thank you, Paul, I appreciate that. Yeah, we had to pick up the flooring and the lighting and this is all really a custom home. It's built from a plan they had, but everything has been customized for us. Pretty kitchen, can lighting. Yes, I so want that and big workspace. Tie-in, you can have it. I wanted it too, I didn't have it. Now I got it.  Let's see here. I don't know if I have anything else I could show you guys that you would even be interested in. Probably the fireplace would be a nice share for you guys. So let me see if I can do that real quick. And I'll put my foot pro. And it's got scent and I'll show you what the fireplace looks like right here.  I guess I'm gonna have to grab it from over here. And there it is. Okay, this is the fireplace. Now this actually is on the other side of that kitchen. This is the family room here. And they're still kind of cleaning up around there and doing some stuff, but we put in this nice stone one here. This is a little deceptive. These ceilings in here are 12 feet tall. So when you look at it, you think of a normal eight foot tall ceiling. These are 12 feet tall. The entrance to this place is actually 15 feet tall. There's a rotunda when you walk in, there's a 15 foot rotunda. And this is the house I've been telling you guys about. This is the one I've been building here. Actually we started on this in November. I actually bought the lot in November. Since that time it has gone up in value, gone up in value $260,000. That's just the increase in value. That's not the total value obviously. It's just the increase in value. Let's see here. What do you guys got to say? I wanna see what you got to say here. You guys are interesting. Richard Brown says, looks super and great for chefing. Yeah, I thought so. I thought so. I thought it'd be pretty cool. Love the storage. Yes, I've got lots of storage. I need that. I don't have that now. Does everybody here use supplements or vitamins? Hey, put that in there. Let them know about supplements and vitamins. This gentleman sells them. If so, which ones do you use? Put that in the chat section. This is an idea sharing session. So if you're using supplements, put it in there of what kind of supplements are you using. Looking forward to your cooking channel, James Breen says, we're gonna have fun on that buddy. And I'm gonna take suggestions and people can submit recipes. They can do all that stuff. I'll cook your recipes. Let's see, our topic. Richard Brown says he uses forever living various products. So there you go. There's an answer to you. Let's see, I'm using tie-in. Says I am using soley naturals and women's multivitamin. So that's very interesting, guys. Richard Brown says, looks fabulous. And I'm enjoying the journey. Yeah, I'm actually gonna film as we're traveling there, guys. And I don't know, is there any other pictures I could share with you guys that you may be interested in? I don't want to bore you with this. If this is boring, you just let me know. And I will stop. But I don't think I have any other pictures that's, I guess I could show you this yard here. If you're even interested, I don't know. I don't know if you're interested in this. This is our backyard. We have a, I don't have the Saajona I used to have in Virginia. I had a three acre yard, which is insane when you try to cut three acres, guys. It takes up way too much of your time. So I didn't want that. But this is the back view of the house here. This is the game room right here. And then the kitchen is back up in this area right here. But fortunately, there were some nice trees on the lot. We had this big one right here we could use. So I was able to use that tree there, which I thought was pretty nice. So that's it. That's our house that we're building. So for those of you who have interest in this, and if you don't, I'm very sorry that I poured you with this. But I just wanted to show those of you who are interested. And I do want to get you interested in my new channel because my new channel is going to be fun. It's going to be a lot of fun. There's going to be a lot of cool cooking stuff on there. If you enjoy cooking, you're going to like it. If you don't enjoy cooking, you're going to like this channel. Okay. You're going to like it at all. Very nice. I was to build my own house. I'd make the counters and cabinets lower on four foot nine. Tie in your four foot nine. Oh my goodness. Send me a link or something. Friend me on Facebook, tie in. I'd like to get to do you. I don't know if you are on Facebook, but I have a lot of friends on there. And let's see here. Let me see if I can find tie in on there. And is that the name you have on Facebook? Tie in? Is that it? Tie in Nelson. See if I can find you. I like getting to know people. Works at home. That's in Spencer, Iowa. No. Maybe you could send me a, needs an outdoor chef area. I have that. I didn't, I couldn't show that to you.  You just can't see it there. So I do have that. I have that area all set up. Riding lawn mower, push mower and tractor back home on my parents four acres. Yeah. Yeah, I used to do that. I had, I had all that. This house, I'm going to have a guy do it. I'm just going to have a guy come by and do all this. I'm not going to do it. Okay, cool. Will do. Yes, this is my name on Facebook. I don't, I can't find you on here. Are you tie in TV? Is that you possibly? I don't know. Spencer, Iowa. Let me see. Let me see if I can find you. S-P-E-N-C Spencer, Iowa. Hmm. Is it Nelson hearing aid service? I see that. Then we got, looks like former A's of the County of Dade. Oh, I don't know. You got to send me a friend request, I guess. Let me see here. Marcus, one man cam. Okay, I'm starting to get all kinds of stuff coming through on Facebook because I mentioned Facebook now. But guys, I really appreciate your interest in this channel. You guys have been very supportive. I mean, very supportive. I really appreciate it. And I appreciate the fact that you want to learn this stuff. Now I want to give you a couple quotes from Gary V. I want to leave you with some cool stuff. Here's what Gary V. says. Pay attention to what people care about and reverse engineering. Think about that one there, okay? Here's another one from Gary V. While everybody is hoping and dreaming, I'm going to be executing. So you got to be doing something. Yes, I am JR Fisher, Tyen. So you should be able to find me there. Let's see here. Rented a home a year ago and the owner made it for his six foot five frame. Whoa, had cool height to work in kitchen. Well, my kitchen's pretty tall, so I don't have to worry about that part there. Let's see, what else we got about Gary V. before I finish off here. He really had a knack of leveraging technology. The people around him, the media to scale his reach. This knack has given him the ability to grab more and more attention for himself and his clients. In short, he is really great at getting the most out of his resources. By doing all these things, he's built this unbelievable audience guys in following. The technology he's using or his media channel and his own words has really built his business. And I've got another tweet here and it's actually got a bad word in it, so I'm not gonna say it, but he says you always squeeze the F out of an orange that's full. And when it's empty, you find a pair which is harder to squeeze. But you hope a grapefruit comes out. Email used to be 90% open rates from me, not anymore. Google AdWords used to be five cents a click, not anymore. What he's saying is things change. Things change and you gotta change along with it. Because you learn that, let's see, my hubby is six foot eight, so we have different needs. That's very interesting. And don't forget to friend me, tie in on Facebook so we can talk more on down the road and like to do that. So key takeaways, okay? He has a really, really good success story. It shows how an immigrant from Belarus worked his butt off and made the most of the situation and leveraged technology of the day to scale his brand and businesses to really incredible heights, guys. His story shows us that the American dream is alive and well. Okay, I don't care what anybody says. You can get out there and work, you can do stuff, but you have to execute. That's super important. I hope his story motivates you a little bit. I don't wanna just talk about me. I wanna start talking about some of these other people that are out there. There's a lot of people that can motivate you, but ultimately it has to do with execution. But people often come to me and say, I've got this idea, what do you think of this idea? And I'm like, it doesn't matter what I think. Execute, go out and try it and see what the market thinks of your idea. I can't tell you if your idea is gonna work, but the market can.  So go out and try your idea. That's what you gotta do. Let's see here, what else we got? Find a problem, Paul says, sell solutions, agitate and sell products. Very, very true. Ryan Nelson will do after the live. Cool, that sounds good. Richard Brown agree, Paul. You guys are awesome. You guys are just awesome. Talking to each other, helping each other. This is what I like to see. This is what I wanna see right here. Guys, I really appreciate if you liked this video, do me a favor and subscribe. Hit that subscribe button down there. Don't forget to ring the bell. Turn on all bell notifications so you're notified each and every time I go live. Now, I will tell you, I'm only gonna be live Monday and Tuesday of next week. I am gonna be traveling starting Wednesday and I won't be back till Sunday. So unfortunately, I can't go live. I will try to maybe do a live from the hotel I'm gonna be at or maybe I'll do some travel live stuff. Maybe I could pull that off. But for the most part, I'm gonna be on the road. So I won't be able to do stuff like I normally do it. I will miss you guys tremendously. But I will see you Monday and Tuesday. So don't miss Monday and Tuesday because otherwise, you won't see me till the following week. Outside of the videos I do upload, I do upload Monday, I think it's Monday, Wednesday, Friday, I don't know, Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday. I upload on my channel three times a week. Check it out. There's gonna be videos there. I think your takeaway is your past doesn't control your future. Every day is a new beginning. 100% guys. And it doesn't matter where you're at right now. It's irrelevant where you're at. It does matter what direction you're heading though. What direction you're heading. Are you getting better at stuff or are you getting more lazy? Are you working harder or are you working less?  What are you doing? Invest some time. Now I do suggest you constantly invest some of your time in learning. I appreciate it. You come into this channel, it is helping you learn and that's a good thing. But then go out and execute. Execute, okay? Try to create more than you consume. I always tell people that. Create more than you consume. Never look at the rear view mirror when going forward. 100%. At least keep us posted. I'll do that James, as a matter of fact. Maybe I'll just do a little short live each day to let you know what I'm doing that day and what's going on. Maybe I could do that. Road trip videos would be good. Okay, I'll do that. All right, I've got to work. All right, you guys have talked me into it. So now I've got to work. I've got to work on this stuff. Guys, thank you so much for being here. I really appreciate it. Give me a thumbs up if you liked this video. If you're not watching this live, you can certainly put comments in the comment section. I'll come back and answer those. We miss you in the lives, but if we understand that not everybody can come to the live ones. Hope you do another review of another success story like Jessica's Upstart. Yeah, you know what? That would be a good one. Maybe I'll talk to her. Maybe I'll interview her. That would be a really cool one for me to do, right? Maybe I'll ask her, she'll do that for us. That would be very, very cool. All right, guys, thank you so much for being here. I'm gonna go ahead and check out. I've got a bunch of stuff to do today. I've got a friend of mine who owns Veraheel, which is a CBD and medical marijuana card company that I did their marketing for a number of years ago. And they're quite profitable now in the millions of dollars. So maybe I could get him on for an interview too. Have a safe, I have a blessed weekend. Again, I had, thank you, Paul. Safe travels, brother, Richard Brown. Thumbs up, everybody. I appreciate that, Richard Brown. Ty and Nelson have a good one. Ty and I'll see you also on Facebook, all these other people who are already my friends on Facebook. So you're next.
